1 00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:14,920 Speaker 1: You are entering the Freedom Hug the day after the 2 00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:19,520 Speaker 1: DC March, media double standards on riots, a lethal shooting 3 00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:23,480 Speaker 1: inside the Capitol, COVID vaccine slowdowns, and what is next 4 00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:28,120 Speaker 1: for MAGA. This is the Buck Sexon Show or the 5 00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:31,400 Speaker 1: mission or mission is to decode what really matters with 6 00:00:31,560 --> 00:00:38,360 Speaker 1: passionable intelligence. Make no mistake great here, great American Again, 7 00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:46,000 Speaker 1: The Buck Sexon Show begins, analysts, he's a great guy. No. 8 00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:49,479 Speaker 1: All of us are faced with two choices, both of 9 00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:52,640 Speaker 1: which are lousy. One choice is vote against the objection, 10 00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:55,600 Speaker 1: and tens of millions of Americans will see a vote 11 00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:59,280 Speaker 1: against the objection as a statement that voter fraud doesn't matter, 12 00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:02,600 Speaker 1: isn't real, and shouldn't be taken seriously, and a great 13 00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:05,240 Speaker 1: many of us don't believe that. On the other hand, 14 00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:07,880 Speaker 1: most if not all, of us believe we should not 15 00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 1: set aside the results of an election just because our 16 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:13,520 Speaker 1: candidate may not have prevailed. And so I endeavored to 17 00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:16,319 Speaker 1: look for door number three, a third option, And for 18 00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:18,680 Speaker 1: that I look to history, to the precedent of the 19 00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:22,440 Speaker 1: eighteen seventy six election the Hayes tiled, an election where 20 00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:27,200 Speaker 1: this Congress appointed an electoral commission to examine claims of 21 00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:31,679 Speaker 1: voter fraud, five House members, five senators, five Supreme Court justices, 22 00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:35,080 Speaker 1: examine the evidence and rendered a judgment. And what I 23 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:37,399 Speaker 1: would urge of this body is that we do the same, 24 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:41,199 Speaker 1: that we appoint an electoral commission to conduct a ten 25 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:46,520 Speaker 1: day emergency audit, consider the evidence, and resolve the claims. 26 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:49,080 Speaker 1: For those on the Democratic aisle who says say there 27 00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:52,160 Speaker 1: is no evidence they've been rejected, then you should rest 28 00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:55,920 Speaker 1: in comfort. If that's the case, an electoral commission would 29 00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 1: reject those claims. But for those who respect the voters, 30 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 1: simply telling the voters go jump in a lake. The 31 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:05,560 Speaker 1: fact that you have deep concerns is of no moment 32 00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:10,480 Speaker 1: to us that jeopardizes I believe the legitimacy of this 33 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:17,440 Speaker 1: and subsequent elections. We can handle the truth, and ultimately, 34 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:20,320 Speaker 1: the truth is what this is all about. Getting to it, 35 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 1: finding out what is real, what is not, what actually 36 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:30,240 Speaker 1: happened in this election. It is essential our entire system 37 00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 1: rests on the premise that we believe there is a 38 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:35,680 Speaker 1: good faith and there is a fairness in the operating 39 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:41,520 Speaker 1: procedures of this Republic. Senator Ted Cruz there speaking well 40 00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 1: to that point, and yet do we feel any better 41 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 1: about it today than we did yesterday? No, of course, 42 00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 1: we feel most likely considerably worse. Why is that? Let's 43 00:02:56,800 --> 00:03:00,760 Speaker 1: first start with why people were marching in DC yesterday. 44 00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:05,400 Speaker 1: Let's start on that issue, because it's many things. The 45 00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:09,360 Speaker 1: media and the focus is on those who believe that 46 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 1: this was a stolen election, and that is certainly a 47 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:16,040 Speaker 1: big part, perhaps a majority, of all of the concern 48 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 1: and anger out there on the streets. But what else 49 00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:24,560 Speaker 1: was motivating this? Why do people feel the need to 50 00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 1: take time out of their lives in a very difficult year, 51 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 1: with a lot of stresses around us because of COVID 52 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 1: and everything else. Why would hundreds of thousands of people 53 00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 1: gather together in DC to make their voices heard. We 54 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:43,200 Speaker 1: have been drifting as a nation toward a culture politically, 55 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:49,080 Speaker 1: socially where there is no middle ground allowed, there's no 56 00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:55,560 Speaker 1: dissent allowed, the rights of political minorities are increasingly trampled on. 57 00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 1: And there is an incredibly powerful system, one that even 58 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:03,360 Speaker 1: goes beyond what you've seen and some of the other 59 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:09,360 Speaker 1: authoritarian regimes of history, in that it is entirely capable 60 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:15,160 Speaker 1: of leveraging information technology, the global marketplace, wealth on a 61 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:20,760 Speaker 1: scale that human beings have never seen, to brainwash, to control, 62 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 1: to determine, and it feels like a rigged game, right. 63 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 1: It feels as though what we do does not really 64 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:33,919 Speaker 1: change very much, and it feels as though we're not 65 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:37,000 Speaker 1: allowed to even raise that up anymore and talk about 66 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:44,000 Speaker 1: it publicly for fear of being ostracized by these social 67 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 1: media companies that I know that we have to get 68 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:50,159 Speaker 1: used to this idea. Social media is not something that 69 00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:52,280 Speaker 1: kids use now just to say hi to each other 70 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 1: and communicate. Social media is a dominant force in the 71 00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:59,119 Speaker 1: flow of information in this country and around the world. 72 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:03,600 Speaker 1: Is more powerful than the traditional media because it determines 73 00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:08,880 Speaker 1: what traditional media you get to see. Wokeness this is 74 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 1: another way of describing political orthodoxy of the left, and 75 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 1: wokeness is ever evolving because ultimately its true goal is 76 00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:23,160 Speaker 1: not changing society so that everybody is equal. It's true 77 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 1: goal is just power, and then it will figure out 78 00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:27,800 Speaker 1: what it decides to do with it, because it doesn't 79 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 1: even know what it wants. Why does it feel like 80 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:35,360 Speaker 1: there's an inherent schizophrenia in the Democrat left's woke ideology 81 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:42,040 Speaker 1: because there is there are multiple personalities at war with 82 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:45,720 Speaker 1: each other inside of the Democrat mind on this issue. 83 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:49,040 Speaker 1: Because you can never be sure that you're woken up, 84 00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 1: it has to constantly evolve and seek out new targets. 85 00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:57,880 Speaker 1: It's effectively a colonial project for the mind right. It 86 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:01,839 Speaker 1: is dominating your consciousness. That's what it seeks to do, 87 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:04,600 Speaker 1: and that it can entirely control you and then figure 88 00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:07,039 Speaker 1: out how to create an entirely equal society. And what 89 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 1: would that even look like. As we know, societies that 90 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 1: put the greatest emphasis on achieving absolute equality achieve the 91 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 1: exact opposite, and history speaks very clearly on that. So 92 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:22,960 Speaker 1: people are upset because of all of these things. And 93 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:28,840 Speaker 1: then also we have suffered through the single worst year 94 00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 1: in terms of our individual freedoms, in terms of government 95 00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:38,839 Speaker 1: overreach of my lifetime. But they use this idea that 96 00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:41,840 Speaker 1: the government can protect you from COVID to justify all 97 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 1: of it. They use the notion that if you only listen, 98 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:48,920 Speaker 1: you'll be saving lives, you'll be protecting people, and if 99 00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:51,880 Speaker 1: you're not willing to listen, if you want to dissent, 100 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:56,880 Speaker 1: you are putting people at risk. This was a recipe 101 00:06:56,960 --> 00:07:01,839 Speaker 1: for absolute control, and they've edged closer and closer to 102 00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:05,120 Speaker 1: that this year than I thought would be possible, honestly 103 00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:10,360 Speaker 1: in my lifetime. And for what are we safer from 104 00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 1: COVID with Think of all the government mandates and shutdowns 105 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 1: and everything they've done. Does anyone look at what's happening 106 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:21,240 Speaker 1: right now in the country with hospitalizations and cases and 107 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 1: think anything other than the virus is gonna virus, It spreads. 108 00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:28,559 Speaker 1: You do your best to stay healthy and stay away 109 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 1: from it, but the government cannot protect you. Am I 110 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:36,840 Speaker 1: missing something? All? Right? Where where's the example of great 111 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 1: government success in this You had Operation Warp Speed, which 112 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:44,880 Speaker 1: is a success, but the distribution of this vaccine is 113 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:48,640 Speaker 1: already a cluster. And then you look at all the lockdown, 114 00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:51,080 Speaker 1: at the masking, all these policies they've instituted, And for 115 00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:55,239 Speaker 1: what does it feel like the journalists who are supposed 116 00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:59,120 Speaker 1: to be speaking truth to power, these media companies that 117 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:02,200 Speaker 1: have gotten in many cases, especially the social media companies, 118 00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:06,480 Speaker 1: wealthier more influential during lockdown because we are now replacing 119 00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 1: human contact and living life with screens. We all live 120 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,320 Speaker 1: our life now. If you're working remotely, unless you're an 121 00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:16,200 Speaker 1: essential and you have to actually go into your job, 122 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:18,640 Speaker 1: we're living our life just in front of these screens. 123 00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:26,120 Speaker 1: We're being bombarded with information that's destructive, often, that's false, 124 00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 1: that's vicious, and that has an agenda, and that's really 125 00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:34,520 Speaker 1: almost all the time, and we're replacing those basic bonds 126 00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:37,400 Speaker 1: of human contact that remind us all that we are 127 00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:39,640 Speaker 1: in this together and we are all on borrowed time. 128 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:44,200 Speaker 1: And when we're talking about Americans, our fellow Americans were 129 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:46,400 Speaker 1: losing sight of the fact that we live in the 130 00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:50,160 Speaker 1: greatest country in the history of the planet. That's an 131 00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:53,440 Speaker 1: amazing statement, isn't it. And I'm sorry if it sounds 132 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:55,800 Speaker 1: a little hokey today. I'm sorry if it's a little 133 00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:58,280 Speaker 1: bit corny to some of you. But we right now 134 00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:01,760 Speaker 1: are living in the greatest country, in the greatest, wealthiest, 135 00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:05,920 Speaker 1: happiest time in human history, and we are lucky to 136 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:08,880 Speaker 1: be here, and we need to preserve it. Yes, we 137 00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:10,680 Speaker 1: need to fight for it. We need to understand what's 138 00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:15,320 Speaker 1: so great about it. But what I see out there 139 00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:23,319 Speaker 1: right now is this ideological cancer of destroy. Destroy the dissenters, 140 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:28,559 Speaker 1: Destroy those who believe in liberty, in limitations on government, 141 00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:32,000 Speaker 1: Destroy those who think the Constitution is supposed to prevent 142 00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 1: all the great plans that the experts are conjuring up 143 00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:41,680 Speaker 1: for us. Isn't this year of the lockdown? Isn't twenty twenty. 144 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:43,280 Speaker 1: I know we're in twenty twenty one now, but I'm 145 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 1: thinking about the last twelve months. Isn't it a repudiation 146 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:52,679 Speaker 1: of the elites and of government control? It doesn't feel 147 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:55,360 Speaker 1: like they think that. That's for sure. We were very 148 00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:58,280 Speaker 1: aware of that. But anybody who's being honest about it 149 00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:02,440 Speaker 1: would say, we need a return to first principles here 150 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:06,920 Speaker 1: in this country. We need an understanding of what it 151 00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:09,840 Speaker 1: is that we are seeking to create in our society 152 00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:13,360 Speaker 1: every day, and for us to get there, we need 153 00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:15,360 Speaker 1: to have a combin We need to have a combination 154 00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:22,599 Speaker 1: of things all come together at once. We need a relentless, 155 00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:26,920 Speaker 1: unapologetic search for the truth. We need the courage and 156 00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:30,360 Speaker 1: bravery to stand for our principles, and we have to 157 00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 1: remember that at the end of the day, what we're 158 00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:36,320 Speaker 1: all trying to do, all of us who are approaching 159 00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 1: this in good faith, with love and reverence for the 160 00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:41,800 Speaker 1: history of this country, for this amazing nation, is to 161 00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 1: make this a better place for all of us, even 162 00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:49,720 Speaker 1: the wackos, even the people of Antifa, I want a 163 00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:53,679 Speaker 1: better America that they are fortunate to live in because 164 00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:58,160 Speaker 1: our ideas prevail. And I know that can be a 165 00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:02,240 Speaker 1: hard thing. You want to think about about destroying your enemy. 166 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:05,520 Speaker 1: Sometimes you want to think about defeating the other side. 167 00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:09,480 Speaker 1: And we want to win at the ballot box. We 168 00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:12,200 Speaker 1: want to win on the battlefield of ideas. But isn't 169 00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:16,000 Speaker 1: it this beautiful thing about this country that victory achieved 170 00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 1: the right way means that it's a better country for 171 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:23,440 Speaker 1: all of us, even the leftists, even the losers, even 172 00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:28,360 Speaker 1: the crazies. It's a better America that's more secure, more 173 00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:32,080 Speaker 1: rule of law, more prosperity, more individual liberty. That is 174 00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:34,120 Speaker 1: what That's why I show up every day. That's why 175 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:36,559 Speaker 1: we do this thing that we're doing here on this show. 176 00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:40,719 Speaker 1: So I think a return to those first principles for 177 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:42,480 Speaker 1: all of us at this moment when I know so 178 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:49,960 Speaker 1: many feel dejected, feel like they have been cast aside, 179 00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:54,439 Speaker 1: and feel like we had a momentum. We had a 180 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:58,080 Speaker 1: moment and it lasted for three years. The COVID year 181 00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:03,360 Speaker 1: was something else. The COVID year, through the whole project 182 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:08,960 Speaker 1: of making America great again into this different cycle. We 183 00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:11,440 Speaker 1: were just all locked down and trying to stay alive, 184 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:13,800 Speaker 1: trying to do what we can to help our neighbors 185 00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:16,840 Speaker 1: and prevent the government from shutting down more businesses and 186 00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:21,280 Speaker 1: more churches than they already were. There's a lot of 187 00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:24,600 Speaker 1: anger out there and that's not going to go away. 188 00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:30,440 Speaker 1: But we have to explore together, honestly, what is working 189 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:34,800 Speaker 1: for us, what can we do, and what does the 190 00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:38,480 Speaker 1: future look like. The reasons for the march yesterday in 191 00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:45,320 Speaker 1: DC were patriotic and decent, and I support them and 192 00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:49,480 Speaker 1: I'm with them, and we have to also know that 193 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:57,160 Speaker 1: we maintain principles even in the face of the most vicious, underhanded, cheating, 194 00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:04,240 Speaker 1: maniacal opposition. We cannot become that which we seek to defeat, 195 00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:06,960 Speaker 1: and I don't think we're even close to it. And 196 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:09,040 Speaker 1: we're going to talk about the double standards and all this. 197 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:11,000 Speaker 1: We're going to discuss all that out on the show. 198 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:15,560 Speaker 1: But let's all just take this moment to remember why 199 00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 1: it is that we do what we do and what 200 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:24,720 Speaker 1: makes us who we are as patriots, conservatives, Americans. What 201 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:27,720 Speaker 1: is it that is so special about all or else? 202 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:29,560 Speaker 1: Why not just go live in New Zealand, Why not 203 00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:32,559 Speaker 1: just move to some other place? Right, No, we understand 204 00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:35,680 Speaker 1: that there's something special about this and we continue to 205 00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:38,240 Speaker 1: fight for it and we'll do everything we can to 206 00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:44,200 Speaker 1: preserve it, win or lose, my friends, that is our mentality. 207 00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:49,080 Speaker 1: We are warriors for the cause of our ideological battles, 208 00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:52,800 Speaker 1: knowing that there is no guaranteed result, but that the 209 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:58,720 Speaker 1: fight is worth having anyway you're in. This is the 210 00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:05,080 Speaker 1: Buck Sex and Show podcast, and we will always be 211 00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:07,600 Speaker 1: grateful to the men and women who stayed at their 212 00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:13,720 Speaker 1: posts to defend this historic place. To those who wreaked 213 00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:18,360 Speaker 1: havoc in our capitol today, you did not win. Violence 214 00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:24,920 Speaker 1: never wins. Freedom wins. And this is still the People's House. 215 00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:29,080 Speaker 1: And as we reconvene in this chamber, the world will 216 00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:35,200 Speaker 1: again witness the resilience and strength of our democracy. For 217 00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:39,240 Speaker 1: even in the wake of unprecedented violence and vandalism at 218 00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:43,560 Speaker 1: this Capitol, the elected representatives of the people of the 219 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 1: United States have assembled again on the very same day 220 00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:53,080 Speaker 1: to support and defend the Constitution of the United States. 221 00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:58,400 Speaker 1: Let me ask you, do you think that Vice President 222 00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:04,160 Speaker 1: Pence a good man? Do you think that he loves 223 00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:08,760 Speaker 1: this country? Do you think that he knows as well 224 00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:13,240 Speaker 1: as really anyone with perhaps the exception of the president himself. 225 00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 1: How much is at stake here and how much could 226 00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:21,280 Speaker 1: have been done for the good of the country had 227 00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:25,760 Speaker 1: this election outcome been different. I think we have to 228 00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:29,000 Speaker 1: approach some of these some of these questions in a 229 00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:33,240 Speaker 1: systematic way so we can all ground ourselves here. At 230 00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:39,000 Speaker 1: a moment of particular disappointment and all this frenzy of 231 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:42,760 Speaker 1: you know, people that are now pointing fingers at each 232 00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:45,080 Speaker 1: other and everything else, what's really happened here, my friends, 233 00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:48,280 Speaker 1: as we've come to a recognition, and it's one that 234 00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:52,640 Speaker 1: I've been trying to to edge us toward here. And 235 00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:55,840 Speaker 1: I appreciate so much that all of you know that 236 00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:58,600 Speaker 1: what I'm telling you, I think this thing is going 237 00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:01,160 Speaker 1: to happen. It's not what we're talking about, the Biden 238 00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:04,640 Speaker 1: Harris presidency, which is happening. When I say that, it's 239 00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:09,160 Speaker 1: not to antagonize. It's not because I like taking some 240 00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:12,720 Speaker 1: kind of a sour position or anything else. It's because 241 00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:15,760 Speaker 1: we need to get ready for what's coming. Psychologically and emotionally. 242 00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:20,240 Speaker 1: We need to be prepared for this because it's happening, 243 00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:23,360 Speaker 1: and I've been saying it for weeks, and there are 244 00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:26,320 Speaker 1: a lot of people out there, and I don't like 245 00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:28,240 Speaker 1: to do this. Oh, you know, the other hosts and so, 246 00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:29,640 Speaker 1: but there are a lot of people that are playing 247 00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:32,840 Speaker 1: this game, and they're pretending that there was some last 248 00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:34,840 Speaker 1: minute secret that was going to save us from this. 249 00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:39,960 Speaker 1: I'm sorry. I look at you, my fellow Americans, my 250 00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 1: friendly Patriots team Buck. I see all of you across 251 00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:49,240 Speaker 1: the country, and I feel like I'm here with you 252 00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:53,360 Speaker 1: waiting for this onslaught. I'm not going to promise you 253 00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:55,320 Speaker 1: that the cavalry is going to come over the hill 254 00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 1: and we're not even gonna have to take any losses 255 00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:01,240 Speaker 1: metaphorically speaking, I'm not going to make that promise because 256 00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:06,280 Speaker 1: I don't believe it, because it's not true. Vice President Pence, 257 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:08,280 Speaker 1: i think you would agree with me, is a good 258 00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:11,800 Speaker 1: man who has been very loyal to this president, very 259 00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:17,040 Speaker 1: loyal to the Manga agenda, and he is doing his 260 00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:23,159 Speaker 1: best for America under the circumstances, and he has been 261 00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:26,360 Speaker 1: put in a very difficult position. The people who are 262 00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:29,320 Speaker 1: turning on Vice President Pence right now, I think are 263 00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:33,680 Speaker 1: forgetting that the actions up to this point of individuals 264 00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:36,960 Speaker 1: should have already shown us what you know, the totality 265 00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:39,240 Speaker 1: of the actions of people like Mike Pence should show 266 00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:43,440 Speaker 1: us that we've done what we can. It is possible 267 00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:48,560 Speaker 1: and if I can it's almost painful to say this 268 00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:50,520 Speaker 1: out loud, it is possible, friends, that we gave it 269 00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:55,879 Speaker 1: everything we had and we are fighting with everything we've got, 270 00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 1: through all the mechanisms at our disposal, and we still lost. 271 00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:05,440 Speaker 1: And whether it's lost through cheating or lost through through 272 00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:09,520 Speaker 1: legitimate victory, even with some degree of cheating, which is 273 00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:12,240 Speaker 1: assured of course, So please, don't you don't need to 274 00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:14,080 Speaker 1: tell me Buck you don't think there was. Of course 275 00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:17,800 Speaker 1: there was cheating. I don't know how much cheating. I 276 00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:20,800 Speaker 1: suspect it was substantial, but if you can't prove it, 277 00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:24,199 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. We are dealing with that sense of 278 00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:28,760 Speaker 1: loss now, but with that loss also comes a recognition 279 00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:32,159 Speaker 1: that we do have so much left to fight for 280 00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:37,200 Speaker 1: and so much more ahead of us. And also see 281 00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:40,119 Speaker 1: the way the other side is seizing upon this moment 282 00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:43,600 Speaker 1: and understand that we're in for a whole new level 283 00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:48,080 Speaker 1: of fight. My friends. Thanks for listening to the show podcasts. 284 00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:52,239 Speaker 1: Remember to subscribe on Apple Podcasts, the iHeartRadio app, or 285 00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:57,040 Speaker 1: wherever you get your podcasts. Fronto Reagan once said, peace 286 00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:59,880 Speaker 1: is not the absence of conflict, It is the ability 287 00:18:59,880 --> 00:19:04,359 Speaker 1: to handle conflict by peaceful means. The peaceful people in 288 00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:07,320 Speaker 1: my state in Oklahoma want their questions answered, but they 289 00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:09,639 Speaker 1: don't want this what happened today. They want to do 290 00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:11,359 Speaker 1: the right thing, and they also want to do it 291 00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:14,560 Speaker 1: the right way. They went onto their constitutional process, but 292 00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:16,880 Speaker 1: they also want to have debate about election security because 293 00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:19,000 Speaker 1: they want to make sure it's right, which is why 294 00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:21,359 Speaker 1: it's an important issue that still needs to be resolved. 295 00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:25,840 Speaker 1: Transparency and government just doesn't seem like a bad idea. Obviously, 296 00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:28,600 Speaker 1: the commission that we have asked for is not going 297 00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:31,880 Speaker 1: to happen at this point. And understand that. And we're 298 00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:35,639 Speaker 1: headed towards tonight, towards the certification of Joe Biden to 299 00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:38,200 Speaker 1: be the President of the United States, and we will 300 00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:41,360 Speaker 1: work together in this body to be able to set 301 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:46,480 Speaker 1: a peaceful example the days ahead. I was goopace Senator 302 00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 1: James Langford, who was addressing the Congress last night on 303 00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:57,040 Speaker 1: the floor of the Senate. What he was saying, There's 304 00:19:57,040 --> 00:19:58,560 Speaker 1: not going to be some commission, and this is it. 305 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:04,520 Speaker 1: This election's done. That's where we are, and and I 306 00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:08,560 Speaker 1: understand that that's so disappointed to hear. And for those 307 00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:11,760 Speaker 1: who are, and look, I you you are always I 308 00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:15,639 Speaker 1: always welcome a criticism from from people that I consider 309 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:18,600 Speaker 1: to be my side, my own team, when it's in 310 00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:21,960 Speaker 1: good faith. Right. So when people write in with all caps, 311 00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:24,639 Speaker 1: lots of curse words and say terrible things about me, 312 00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:27,159 Speaker 1: I'm like, well, what what is that accomplishing? Right? But 313 00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:30,440 Speaker 1: anybody who has a valid or I shouldn't even say valid, 314 00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:33,200 Speaker 1: has a good faith criticism, I welcome it. And sometimes 315 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:35,800 Speaker 1: sometimes people write into this show and I read and 316 00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:39,000 Speaker 1: the first thing I think when I read their comments 317 00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:42,080 Speaker 1: about something that I've said or about a direction we've 318 00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:46,520 Speaker 1: gone editorially, is they're right. That does happen? That does 319 00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:48,000 Speaker 1: I want to admit that to you. I know that 320 00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:50,800 Speaker 1: there's a whole a kind of radio industry built around 321 00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:53,760 Speaker 1: people who are never never wrong. Right. I don't do that, 322 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:56,159 Speaker 1: So that does happen. So I don't think that I 323 00:20:56,200 --> 00:21:00,280 Speaker 1: read these things and don't realize that's a completely valid point, 324 00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:02,439 Speaker 1: or even more than that, that they're they're right and 325 00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:06,239 Speaker 1: I'm wrong. So for those who are telling me and 326 00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:07,760 Speaker 1: I think we have to have this this is like 327 00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:09,760 Speaker 1: a family discussion. Now that's how I view this. I 328 00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:13,080 Speaker 1: sit here talking to all of you as I would 329 00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:15,840 Speaker 1: if there had been some incident, you know, my cousins 330 00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:17,600 Speaker 1: or something, and we're all sitting down at the table 331 00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:20,119 Speaker 1: to have a discussion about what's gone on so we 332 00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:23,439 Speaker 1: can move forward in the most positive fashion. Because not 333 00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:24,800 Speaker 1: only am I on your team, I want to be 334 00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:26,480 Speaker 1: a leader on your team. I want to be somebody 335 00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 1: you can always count on that you know is there 336 00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:31,520 Speaker 1: for you. You could trust me. I tell you the truth. 337 00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:36,120 Speaker 1: I stand on the principles we share, and I even 338 00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:41,240 Speaker 1: will show some courage in public about difficult issues. But 339 00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:44,719 Speaker 1: sometimes courage means telling people things that aren't necessarily going 340 00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 1: to appeal to them. And I think one of the 341 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:49,919 Speaker 1: one of the challenges that we've had in the Trump 342 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:52,720 Speaker 1: era on the right is that there has been very 343 00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:54,960 Speaker 1: little space for that. There's really been, and I'll just 344 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:59,159 Speaker 1: say it, there's really been almost no market for trying 345 00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:02,040 Speaker 1: to criticize the Trump agenda from or rather from a 346 00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 1: Trump administration, not the agenda, the Trump administration from a 347 00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:09,680 Speaker 1: perspective of how can we be more effective in achieving 348 00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:13,560 Speaker 1: goals that this presidency set out for how can we 349 00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:18,280 Speaker 1: do a better job of getting these things. We created 350 00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:23,520 Speaker 1: a bit of a bit of a silo where all 351 00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:27,080 Speaker 1: all of the public commentary went into this one place 352 00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:30,159 Speaker 1: and it was Trump is awesome and he's doing all 353 00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:32,280 Speaker 1: these amazing things. And we were allowed to say Trump 354 00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:34,800 Speaker 1: is awesome, comma, but I wish he would or Trump 355 00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:37,880 Speaker 1: is doing a great job on this. But you sit 356 00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:40,560 Speaker 1: here and you say, well, one place and for those 357 00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:43,120 Speaker 1: you were wondering, what have you said about this buck 358 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:47,000 Speaker 1: that would be an example of this. Trump's picks for 359 00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:49,520 Speaker 1: his advisors and for some of his White House personnel 360 00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:51,760 Speaker 1: was was abominable. I mean, it was truly awful, and 361 00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:55,919 Speaker 1: there was a lot of a lot of well he 362 00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:59,000 Speaker 1: can't trust anybody, or well, you know he meets family 363 00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:01,439 Speaker 1: members around him, or all all these things. You know, 364 00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:03,879 Speaker 1: at some point you can kind of justify anything in 365 00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:07,159 Speaker 1: this realm. Is it serving the president to do that? 366 00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:09,600 Speaker 1: Is it serving the agenda? Is it serving all of us? 367 00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 1: Or the president being in the office. I know he 368 00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:15,080 Speaker 1: was entertaining and has tweets were amazing, but ultimately he 369 00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:16,879 Speaker 1: was trying to achieve things for you and for me. 370 00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:20,159 Speaker 1: Some of them he did but some of them he didn't. 371 00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:23,280 Speaker 1: Does anybody want to argue now that we have a big, 372 00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:27,600 Speaker 1: beautiful wall from sea to c to shining Sea, we 373 00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:30,120 Speaker 1: do not. And I know that there are all these 374 00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:32,919 Speaker 1: reasons and there, but we would have been more effective 375 00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:36,840 Speaker 1: in getting some of these things done if there had 376 00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:40,280 Speaker 1: been more room to be able to say, I'm on 377 00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:45,200 Speaker 1: the team, but you know this needs to be done differently. 378 00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:47,800 Speaker 1: I'm sure many of you have played team sports, so 379 00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:48,960 Speaker 1: many of you have. You know, you've been on a 380 00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:52,080 Speaker 1: football team or or a basketball or lacrosse or whatever, 381 00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:55,400 Speaker 1: and you know you'll come together in the huddle. Is it? 382 00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:58,040 Speaker 1: Is it a good thing to say, guys were down 383 00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:00,639 Speaker 1: by we're down by a lot at how time, but 384 00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:04,199 Speaker 1: you know what, we're amazing. Let's do everything exactly the 385 00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:07,119 Speaker 1: same way we're doing I was gonna say that there 386 00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:09,399 Speaker 1: was a lot of that within the GOP. And you 387 00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:11,760 Speaker 1: know that you know I'm telling you the truth. Every 388 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:13,760 Speaker 1: single one of you knows that I'm telling you the 389 00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:16,560 Speaker 1: truth right now. There was a lot of that. It 390 00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:19,400 Speaker 1: was well, hold on a second, maybe maybe we need 391 00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:22,240 Speaker 1: a greater focus on this, or you know, hold on. 392 00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:25,560 Speaker 1: Maybe the the outreach to Kim jong un isn't isn't 393 00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:29,840 Speaker 1: a worthwhile expenditure of presidential time and resources. And you know, 394 00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:31,600 Speaker 1: and I'm not even saying that that was true or none. 395 00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:33,880 Speaker 1: I'm just pointing out if you said that, you were 396 00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:37,399 Speaker 1: shouted down, if you if you said that, people thought 397 00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:41,960 Speaker 1: that you were no longer on the team. And you know, 398 00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:47,440 Speaker 1: the Democrats legally out maneuvered. I want to see legally. 399 00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:49,480 Speaker 1: I don't mean that what they did was necessarily legal, 400 00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:54,119 Speaker 1: but they understood that changing these processes for mail and 401 00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:57,479 Speaker 1: balloting in these states, they knew that that was going 402 00:24:57,520 --> 00:25:02,000 Speaker 1: to give them an enormous advantage going into the election, 403 00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:07,600 Speaker 1: and there needed to be legal challenges brought and put 404 00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:12,600 Speaker 1: the mechanisms in place for accountability and integrity before the election. 405 00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:18,760 Speaker 1: The RNC and yes, the Trump campaign were asleep at 406 00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:23,840 Speaker 1: the wheel on this. Again. I know it's not comforting. 407 00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:28,320 Speaker 1: I am telling you the truth. I know it's not exciting, 408 00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:30,040 Speaker 1: and you know it doesn't make us all feel warm 409 00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:35,160 Speaker 1: and fuzzy. This is what happened. And I think yesterday 410 00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 1: in a lot of ways, I don't mean the incident 411 00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:39,119 Speaker 1: even a Capitol Hill. I just mean the whole the 412 00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:41,960 Speaker 1: takeaway from the day with the certification, everything else, and 413 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:45,760 Speaker 1: all the people gather into DC was we now have 414 00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:47,840 Speaker 1: to stare truth right in the face and handle it. 415 00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:53,600 Speaker 1: We're there, friends, were there. The Democrats won these two 416 00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:58,720 Speaker 1: Senate seats. Democrats are going to be the next president 417 00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:01,760 Speaker 1: and vice president, the presidency for the next four years. 418 00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:04,760 Speaker 1: The Democrats have control of the House. Nancy Pelosi and 419 00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:06,640 Speaker 1: Chuck Schumer are going to be the two most powerful 420 00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:11,160 Speaker 1: elected legislative officials in the country. That's where we are, 421 00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:15,879 Speaker 1: and now we can get a little bit into the 422 00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:22,200 Speaker 1: tactics here the decision making. Let's all understand this marching 423 00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:28,440 Speaker 1: and DC. I was so pleased that people were overwhelmingly marching, 424 00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:31,320 Speaker 1: and this whole thing about being a peaceful march. You know, 425 00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:35,399 Speaker 1: let's let's set a different standard, a law abiding march, 426 00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:39,240 Speaker 1: because remember, if we're going to have marches that don't 427 00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:41,680 Speaker 1: abide by the laws, First of all, we're hypocrites because 428 00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:45,800 Speaker 1: of the Do you know anybody that hammered blm more 429 00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:50,200 Speaker 1: than me in June? In June this year, I'll really 430 00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:52,640 Speaker 1: ask you that a lot of Republicans are running scared, 431 00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:55,640 Speaker 1: didn't want to be called, Oh that's racist. Don't criticize BLM. 432 00:26:56,600 --> 00:26:59,479 Speaker 1: Did I ever back down on that one. Was I 433 00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:02,560 Speaker 1: ever saying saying, oh, you know, uh, you know, be blm, 434 00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:06,000 Speaker 1: we should we should concede to this group and everything else. No, 435 00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:12,879 Speaker 1: but we have to establish what our principles are. And 436 00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:16,400 Speaker 1: I know that sounds a little hall monitoris sometimes right, Oh, 437 00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:20,240 Speaker 1: another person, another person in the media that's telling us about, oh, 438 00:27:20,240 --> 00:27:24,920 Speaker 1: we have the principles. I try to conduct myself publicly, 439 00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:28,840 Speaker 1: uh you know, as as in in a way where 440 00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:32,280 Speaker 1: I'm proud of what I do. And I can always 441 00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:34,240 Speaker 1: look my family members and loved ones and people that 442 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:37,719 Speaker 1: matter most in the eye and feel like I'm I'm 443 00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:39,959 Speaker 1: proud and they're proud of me because of the way 444 00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:41,879 Speaker 1: I conduct myself. So I don't do you know, I 445 00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:44,840 Speaker 1: don't say horrific things to people. I don't go after 446 00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:47,800 Speaker 1: people in deeply vicious personal ways and all this stuff. 447 00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:51,520 Speaker 1: I try to establish some boundaries. I try to work 448 00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:55,200 Speaker 1: through through my day to day of doing a show 449 00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:58,560 Speaker 1: many many hours of content, as you know, extemporaneous. It's 450 00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:01,879 Speaker 1: all just flowing out of my rain every day, and 451 00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:04,679 Speaker 1: I try to do it in a way that is 452 00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:07,480 Speaker 1: advancing things and making I try to do things that 453 00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:11,080 Speaker 1: make it better. You know, That's that's my approach. Now 454 00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:13,439 Speaker 1: let's talk So why why am I giving this preamble? Now, 455 00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:17,359 Speaker 1: let's talk about what happened at Capitol Hill? Because I 456 00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:19,399 Speaker 1: had a lot of people, you know, Oh, I lost 457 00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:24,440 Speaker 1: you know, Twitter followers yesterday, not all of them obviously, 458 00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:26,800 Speaker 1: but I like probably thousands of them. And I had 459 00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:28,960 Speaker 1: people that are writing to me saying, you know, what 460 00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:31,560 Speaker 1: has the establishment done to get to me? Okay, just 461 00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:33,480 Speaker 1: put aside everything else for a second. But put put 462 00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:37,680 Speaker 1: aside that, you know, like so many others of my generation, 463 00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:39,920 Speaker 1: instead of going to Wall Street, I joined the CIA 464 00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:42,360 Speaker 1: so I could I could quite literally be involved in 465 00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:44,600 Speaker 1: the hunt for Osama bin Laden. I mean put aside 466 00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:46,880 Speaker 1: that I actually try to put my money where my 467 00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:49,960 Speaker 1: mouth is on on different issues professionally and in my life. 468 00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:53,880 Speaker 1: It's not about me. Let's just look at this tactically. 469 00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:56,680 Speaker 1: We're having we're having a hot wash here, friends, We're 470 00:28:56,720 --> 00:29:00,640 Speaker 1: having a an after action report. What was the point 471 00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:04,400 Speaker 1: of people going inside the Capitol yesterday, breaking the law, 472 00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:09,400 Speaker 1: breaking windows and and engaging in that behavior. What was 473 00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 1: that for? I'm saying, put it, put aside. Whether you 474 00:29:13,800 --> 00:29:16,960 Speaker 1: think that this is called for or not for a second. 475 00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:19,680 Speaker 1: And I have been very clear that I think that 476 00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:22,520 Speaker 1: this was I've called it a blunder. I called it 477 00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:24,880 Speaker 1: a blunder on Tucker Carlson Show last night with four 478 00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:31,640 Speaker 1: million people watching. But what was it going to accomplish? 479 00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:35,160 Speaker 1: And I know we we kind of people look at 480 00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:37,720 Speaker 1: me there, oh and some are some are gonna turn off, 481 00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:40,440 Speaker 1: They're gonna turn off the radio, NTO, the trough, the podcast. 482 00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:45,719 Speaker 1: I am your friend. We are in this together, and 483 00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:49,520 Speaker 1: I'm speaking to you with respect and honesty because this 484 00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:53,120 Speaker 1: audience that the greatest honor of my life to date 485 00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:55,520 Speaker 1: has been the people that listen to this show in 486 00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:59,200 Speaker 1: the numbers that they do, with the trust and the 487 00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:02,640 Speaker 1: respect that they do now going on many years, and 488 00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:04,719 Speaker 1: so I speak to you with that in mind. And 489 00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:06,200 Speaker 1: those of you who have met me in public, no, 490 00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:10,200 Speaker 1: I light up. I love when anybody from Team Buck 491 00:30:10,520 --> 00:30:12,440 Speaker 1: comes up to me and says, hey, are you Buck Sexton? 492 00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:14,320 Speaker 1: I like your show or something. It makes every time 493 00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:16,680 Speaker 1: it happens. It makes my day. Every time it happens. 494 00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:18,160 Speaker 1: It makes me feel like what I'm doing here is 495 00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:22,040 Speaker 1: worthwhile because invariably, all all the people that do listen 496 00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:23,480 Speaker 1: to the show that I meet in real life and 497 00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:24,920 Speaker 1: that reach out to me and that I talk to 498 00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:29,360 Speaker 1: and everything. There's such good people. There's there's a fundamental 499 00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:35,640 Speaker 1: decency and kindness and they're just solid. They're just solid Americans. 500 00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:38,920 Speaker 1: And so that's how I view everybody who listens to 501 00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:41,360 Speaker 1: this show. And so that's why I also speak to 502 00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:42,880 Speaker 1: you the same way as I said I would if 503 00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:45,120 Speaker 1: there had been some incident within my own family. What 504 00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:47,360 Speaker 1: was it going to accomplish to have the stormy of 505 00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:51,560 Speaker 1: Capitol Hill? It was going to do what I mean. 506 00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:53,960 Speaker 1: And and for anybody who I know, a lot of 507 00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:55,120 Speaker 1: you agree with me, by the way, and a lot 508 00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:57,120 Speaker 1: of you feel like I'm but there there's there's a 509 00:30:57,160 --> 00:30:58,960 Speaker 1: contingent out there of people who are going to be 510 00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:01,880 Speaker 1: listening right now and approach will be oh Buck has 511 00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:05,800 Speaker 1: gone soft, or oh I thought you supported this, and 512 00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:08,480 Speaker 1: and I look, I'll take all that heat. And that's fine. 513 00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:11,400 Speaker 1: And you know you're all of you are more than 514 00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:15,000 Speaker 1: entitled to your opinions. But I'm going to I'm speaking 515 00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:17,360 Speaker 1: to those people now who disagree with me on this 516 00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:20,920 Speaker 1: but are at least open to hearing my my reasoning 517 00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:24,040 Speaker 1: on it, or at least open to hearing why it 518 00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:27,400 Speaker 1: is that. I'm taking the position that I do what 519 00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:30,320 Speaker 1: was it going to accomplish? So so I can take 520 00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:33,880 Speaker 1: a step back. What does BLM and what do antifa 521 00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:39,080 Speaker 1: think they accomplished by doing what they do? So we'll 522 00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:41,160 Speaker 1: put a hold on even answering the question what is 523 00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:42,760 Speaker 1: BLM and anti But what do they think they get 524 00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:47,320 Speaker 1: out of burning down stores, looting, rioting? And yes, I 525 00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:50,040 Speaker 1: know that over the Kavanaugh hearing, the you know, flooded 526 00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:54,320 Speaker 1: into the heart Senate building. Protesters you know, went in 527 00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:56,400 Speaker 1: there and in huge numbers. And this this happens. They 528 00:31:56,400 --> 00:32:00,000 Speaker 1: took over the Capitol building and in Wisconsin years ago, 529 00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:03,200 Speaker 1: left wing protesters. I know about all that. Why do 530 00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:08,200 Speaker 1: they do that? They do it to intimidate people. They 531 00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:14,440 Speaker 1: do it so that everyday Americans are scared to oppose them. 532 00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:19,480 Speaker 1: It is about fear. That is why they loot and 533 00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:24,400 Speaker 1: burn down and destroy, And it's about exercising their own 534 00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:29,600 Speaker 1: feelings of rage. And it's about self. It's self gratification 535 00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:36,000 Speaker 1: and intimidation. That's why they do it. I'm just gonna 536 00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:40,160 Speaker 1: say it, that's not who we are. That's not who 537 00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:43,000 Speaker 1: we are. And everyone can get get mad at me 538 00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:46,080 Speaker 1: and everything else. I would ask you this, would any 539 00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:47,520 Speaker 1: of you ever think if I was with you at 540 00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:50,600 Speaker 1: a march, that I would say or that I would 541 00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:54,320 Speaker 1: even in my on my own goat, run up and 542 00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:57,880 Speaker 1: smash a window and punch a police officer in the 543 00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:03,840 Speaker 1: face because I'm upset about politics. That's what was happening yesterday. Okay, 544 00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:08,400 Speaker 1: So we know why BLM, We know why these groups 545 00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:13,520 Speaker 1: do what they do and why it's wrong. What was 546 00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:17,680 Speaker 1: the purpose yesterday of going And it wasn't an insurrection, 547 00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:21,280 Speaker 1: it wasn't a terrorist attack. I understand all of that, 548 00:33:21,360 --> 00:33:23,320 Speaker 1: of course, and we'll talk about the media double standards. 549 00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:28,240 Speaker 1: What was it going to accomplish? The sad part of 550 00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:29,960 Speaker 1: it is you know what it did? You know it 551 00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:31,520 Speaker 1: because you know it didn't change It's not going to 552 00:33:31,600 --> 00:33:33,720 Speaker 1: change the election. It's not going to change anything except 553 00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:43,040 Speaker 1: it emboldens our worst, most dishonorable opposition. It emboldens the left, 554 00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:46,320 Speaker 1: and we are going to be paying a price for 555 00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:49,920 Speaker 1: this now on the battlefield of ideas for some time. 556 00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:54,680 Speaker 1: You know, I'm telling you the truth, and you know 557 00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:58,200 Speaker 1: that there is a lot of double standard out there 558 00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:01,120 Speaker 1: about this, and yes, we should address that and we 559 00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:06,640 Speaker 1: will in a moment. You're in the freedom. This is 560 00:34:06,640 --> 00:34:13,520 Speaker 1: the Buck Sexton Show podcast. The reason they could easily 561 00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:18,560 Speaker 1: and casually with their cameras on film themselves throwing things 562 00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:22,160 Speaker 1: through the walls of our capital, our property, going inside 563 00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:25,520 Speaker 1: the Capitol, sitting in a speaker Pelosi's office, casually take 564 00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:28,319 Speaker 1: pictures of themselves. Have that played on Fox News. They 565 00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:31,960 Speaker 1: know that they are not in jeopardy because the cops 566 00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:34,520 Speaker 1: are taking selfies with them, walking them down the steps 567 00:34:34,560 --> 00:34:37,800 Speaker 1: to make sure they're not earth, taking care with their bodies, 568 00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:41,839 Speaker 1: not like they treated Freddy Gray's body. White Americans aren't 569 00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:45,239 Speaker 1: afraid of the cops. White Americans are never afraid of 570 00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:49,239 Speaker 1: the cops, even when they're committing insurrection, even when they're 571 00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:53,200 Speaker 1: engaged in attempting to occupy our capitol to steal the 572 00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:56,360 Speaker 1: votes of people who look like me, because in their minds, 573 00:34:56,480 --> 00:34:59,160 Speaker 1: they own this country, they own that capitol, they own 574 00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:01,400 Speaker 1: the cops, the cop It's worked for them, and people 575 00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:04,680 Speaker 1: like me have no damn right to try to elect 576 00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:07,040 Speaker 1: a president because we don't get to pick the president. 577 00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:09,120 Speaker 1: They get to pick the president. They own the president, 578 00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:12,560 Speaker 1: they own the White House, they own this country. Disgusting. 579 00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:15,640 Speaker 1: I mean you need to hear that though disgusting. Did 580 00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:17,960 Speaker 1: she not have access she works in a news organization. 581 00:35:18,040 --> 00:35:20,400 Speaker 1: Did she not have access to the Internet. A woman 582 00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:25,319 Speaker 1: was killed among the people entering Capital shot in the neck, 583 00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:29,279 Speaker 1: and there's video of it, and it's graphic, and I 584 00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:34,000 Speaker 1: do not see the need for the use of lethal 585 00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:37,719 Speaker 1: force under the circumstances. I don't see it. I've talked 586 00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:39,640 Speaker 1: to I've talked to friends of mine of law enforcement. 587 00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:42,120 Speaker 1: I'm saying, you know, what is there some you know, 588 00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:47,520 Speaker 1: barricaded public official exception or something. She wasn't an imminent 589 00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:50,919 Speaker 1: threat to anybody. He was killed, shot in the neck 590 00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:55,200 Speaker 1: through a door, but they still go with the preferred 591 00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:58,440 Speaker 1: narrative about this. We have now we have to disassemble 592 00:35:58,520 --> 00:36:02,440 Speaker 1: the lies of the left around what happened yesterday. Thanks 593 00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:05,719 Speaker 1: for listening to the bus seson show podcasts. Remember to 594 00:36:05,760 --> 00:36:09,560 Speaker 1: subscribe on Apple podcast, the iHeartRadio app, or wherever you 595 00:36:09,640 --> 00:36:14,240 Speaker 1: get your podcasts. For me, the saddest moment was watching 596 00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:17,000 Speaker 1: them attempt to take down the flag of the United 597 00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:20,600 Speaker 1: States to put up a Trump sign. Think about that 598 00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:23,040 Speaker 1: for a minute. I think this is a nine to 599 00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:26,759 Speaker 1: eleven level event in the sense that we are going 600 00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:30,399 Speaker 1: to remember where we were, what we were doing when 601 00:36:30,400 --> 00:36:33,400 Speaker 1: we turned on the television and watched the events yesterday. 602 00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:37,680 Speaker 1: It is searing in my view, and I for one 603 00:36:38,040 --> 00:36:42,040 Speaker 1: will never look at a maga had again without thinking 604 00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:46,040 Speaker 1: of this day. And if you are a decent American, 605 00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:50,520 Speaker 1: put away your maga had, put away your Trump flag. 606 00:36:51,600 --> 00:36:59,600 Speaker 1: Remember what those symbols were used for on this day. 607 00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:02,360 Speaker 1: Settle down there, buddy. It's not a nine to eleven 608 00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:06,640 Speaker 1: moment or three thousand people died on nine to eleven, Good, good, heavens. 609 00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:15,200 Speaker 1: This was. This was people making a bad decision to 610 00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:19,520 Speaker 1: run on Capitol grounds and destroy property. And someone lost 611 00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:22,440 Speaker 1: her One person lost her life as a result of 612 00:37:22,680 --> 00:37:26,319 Speaker 1: what happened yesterday. And I'm I'm still waiting to hear 613 00:37:26,360 --> 00:37:28,400 Speaker 1: what the justific I've seen the video. The video to 614 00:37:28,440 --> 00:37:31,640 Speaker 1: me does not look like a justified shooting at all. 615 00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:35,520 Speaker 1: But I there, this was a particular circumstance. You know, 616 00:37:35,560 --> 00:37:37,960 Speaker 1: if you were if you were barricaded in your home 617 00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:41,080 Speaker 1: and there was a mob outside coming through the door 618 00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:43,160 Speaker 1: in the window, that's one thing. If you're in the 619 00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:46,480 Speaker 1: halls of Congress, I I'm open, I'm open to being 620 00:37:46,480 --> 00:37:49,399 Speaker 1: told I'm wrong on this, from what I see, not 621 00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:53,480 Speaker 1: a justified shooting. And think about this, if that person 622 00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:55,399 Speaker 1: could be shot cool, could you open fire on all 623 00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:58,920 Speaker 1: the on all the rioters? Would you open fire on 624 00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:02,319 Speaker 1: all of them? Because the standard would seem to still 625 00:38:02,320 --> 00:38:04,640 Speaker 1: be in place that any person that's smashing windows and 626 00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:06,200 Speaker 1: going through doors you need to shoot them if you're 627 00:38:06,760 --> 00:38:09,320 Speaker 1: Capitol Hill police. So that that needs to be looked 628 00:38:09,360 --> 00:38:13,839 Speaker 1: at much more thoroughly than what we've we've seen so 629 00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:17,840 Speaker 1: far in the public discourse around it. But this is 630 00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:20,160 Speaker 1: where I tell you about the tactic, the tactics part 631 00:38:20,200 --> 00:38:22,560 Speaker 1: of all of this, and the assessment that we have 632 00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:27,200 Speaker 1: to do now of what we what was lost as 633 00:38:27,239 --> 00:38:30,520 Speaker 1: a result of this. For the movement, they they are 634 00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:34,520 Speaker 1: going to play this, They're going to exaggerate it, and 635 00:38:34,520 --> 00:38:36,600 Speaker 1: they're going to pretend that this is the only political 636 00:38:36,680 --> 00:38:38,920 Speaker 1: violence we've seen in this country in four years. Is 637 00:38:38,920 --> 00:38:44,239 Speaker 1: that enraging? Yes? It is. Is it a lie? It 638 00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:49,560 Speaker 1: absolutely is. But as we look at this, we also 639 00:38:49,600 --> 00:38:52,600 Speaker 1: have to say, you know, to take me back to 640 00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:57,880 Speaker 1: the initial premise here, what was gained by any of this? 641 00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:05,960 Speaker 1: The answer is nothing. The answer is nothing, And I 642 00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:12,080 Speaker 1: don't really understand the mentality why people uh feel like 643 00:39:12,719 --> 00:39:15,400 Speaker 1: it's we we are not allowed to now say that 644 00:39:15,440 --> 00:39:18,560 Speaker 1: we do we draw any lines. I just wann't know 645 00:39:18,600 --> 00:39:21,080 Speaker 1: what what would be for those for those out there 646 00:39:21,080 --> 00:39:26,440 Speaker 1: who think that this was a in any way understandable 647 00:39:26,560 --> 00:39:29,560 Speaker 1: And there's this fine line between I understand all the anger, 648 00:39:30,320 --> 00:39:34,960 Speaker 1: but I don't understand doing this. No, can't, can't do it. 649 00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:37,480 Speaker 1: And the left is now going to use this in everywhere. 650 00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:40,120 Speaker 1: They're going to ram this down our throats for more 651 00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:45,279 Speaker 1: authoritarianism and for what right there was? There was no 652 00:39:45,360 --> 00:39:47,360 Speaker 1: gain from it. I know people get mad at me. 653 00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:51,799 Speaker 1: I'm telling the truth and this if someone wanted to 654 00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:53,319 Speaker 1: baby on this, what happen to be at any person 655 00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:55,279 Speaker 1: on this issue. It's important that we get this right. 656 00:39:56,080 --> 00:39:59,200 Speaker 1: We either have principles or we don't. Right. We either 657 00:39:59,239 --> 00:40:00,920 Speaker 1: and people are gonna tell me, oh, we have to 658 00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:03,879 Speaker 1: fight the way that they fight. Really do do we want? 659 00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:05,799 Speaker 1: I mean, and let's let's then let's then take that, 660 00:40:06,280 --> 00:40:10,560 Speaker 1: let's step further. Do we want a a right wing antifa? 661 00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:13,200 Speaker 1: Do we want a right wing group that goes around 662 00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:19,000 Speaker 1: destroying stores attacking people? The answers of course not. But 663 00:40:19,719 --> 00:40:21,960 Speaker 1: if you are going to say that sometimes we just 664 00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:24,120 Speaker 1: got to break into a building because there's there's no 665 00:40:24,160 --> 00:40:26,200 Speaker 1: options left and we're gonna tell me that, Well, then 666 00:40:26,840 --> 00:40:33,080 Speaker 1: where does that? When does that go away? When when 667 00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:37,320 Speaker 1: are we able to do that? Um and I have 668 00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:39,600 Speaker 1: to say now now we need to understand we need 669 00:40:39,640 --> 00:40:42,680 Speaker 1: each other more than ever because the stuff that the 670 00:40:42,760 --> 00:40:44,400 Speaker 1: left is going to be saying about this for a 671 00:40:44,440 --> 00:40:49,200 Speaker 1: long time to come is they're gonna leverage this one 672 00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:52,920 Speaker 1: a lot. I would I wouldn't be surprised. You know, 673 00:40:53,040 --> 00:40:56,160 Speaker 1: social media has already, you know they've done this. They 674 00:40:56,200 --> 00:41:01,360 Speaker 1: have banned Trump from Twitter, the president of the United States. 675 00:41:02,440 --> 00:41:06,719 Speaker 1: They have banned him from Twitter, they have banned him 676 00:41:06,760 --> 00:41:11,640 Speaker 1: from Instagram, and they have banned him from Facebook as 677 00:41:11,680 --> 00:41:14,520 Speaker 1: of today, and they're going to keep the bands in 678 00:41:14,600 --> 00:41:18,520 Speaker 1: place until the transition of power happens. That's right. You 679 00:41:18,560 --> 00:41:23,080 Speaker 1: have media companies now openly and actively saying they are 680 00:41:23,120 --> 00:41:28,200 Speaker 1: suppressing the sitting president of the United States until there's 681 00:41:28,239 --> 00:41:32,319 Speaker 1: the transition of power. This is where we are now. 682 00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:37,040 Speaker 1: There's there's all this talk about invoking the twenty fifth Amendment, 683 00:41:38,200 --> 00:41:41,279 Speaker 1: and there's that that's by the way, a terrible I 684 00:41:41,320 --> 00:41:45,759 Speaker 1: mean a terrible idea, a terrible idea, all right, that 685 00:41:45,960 --> 00:41:48,000 Speaker 1: there's no reason, there's no need to do that, there's 686 00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:51,400 Speaker 1: no reason to do that at this point. Um, we 687 00:41:51,560 --> 00:41:56,640 Speaker 1: are heading toward a transition and an inauguration within two weeks, 688 00:41:56,640 --> 00:41:59,440 Speaker 1: and I view it as people would would just think that, 689 00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:02,359 Speaker 1: you know, the fix was even more in. You can't 690 00:42:02,440 --> 00:42:08,040 Speaker 1: let you can't let Trump be president for two more weeks. So, friends, 691 00:42:08,040 --> 00:42:10,279 Speaker 1: I don't know, I would. I would like to be 692 00:42:10,360 --> 00:42:16,040 Speaker 1: pointed toward the the conservative the conservative media person out 693 00:42:16,080 --> 00:42:19,120 Speaker 1: there for those of you again who who are and 694 00:42:19,239 --> 00:42:22,399 Speaker 1: I know some of you are, so it's it's some 695 00:42:22,440 --> 00:42:25,040 Speaker 1: of you are very frustrated that I'm telling you these 696 00:42:25,080 --> 00:42:27,879 Speaker 1: things and have been for the last last twenty four hours. 697 00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:32,520 Speaker 1: Well really, I've been saying for weeks now that this 698 00:42:32,560 --> 00:42:34,800 Speaker 1: is where we're heading in terms of the Biden transition, 699 00:42:34,840 --> 00:42:38,920 Speaker 1: that Biden's going to be president. We've known this, and 700 00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:42,680 Speaker 1: I think the president, the president saying that there is 701 00:42:42,760 --> 00:42:46,880 Speaker 1: that there's election fraud is true. The president saying that 702 00:42:46,920 --> 00:42:50,680 Speaker 1: we have unanswered questions about the election fraud is completely 703 00:42:50,719 --> 00:42:54,640 Speaker 1: fair and proper. But taking it to this point now 704 00:42:55,320 --> 00:42:58,040 Speaker 1: where there's a belief that the election that we don't 705 00:42:58,080 --> 00:43:01,200 Speaker 1: We no longer have to respect the results of the 706 00:43:01,280 --> 00:43:04,879 Speaker 1: system as they stand. Well, now we're talking about rejection 707 00:43:05,040 --> 00:43:07,680 Speaker 1: of the system wholesale, and let's all be very clear 708 00:43:07,719 --> 00:43:10,239 Speaker 1: about that. And if that's where you want to go, 709 00:43:10,760 --> 00:43:14,080 Speaker 1: you're heading down a very dark and very dangerous path. 710 00:43:15,440 --> 00:43:19,480 Speaker 1: And that's not what we want, that's not what we 711 00:43:20,040 --> 00:43:27,719 Speaker 1: should have in our country. Yes, BLM and Antifa are 712 00:43:27,800 --> 00:43:32,400 Speaker 1: treated entirely differently by the press. Yes, they burn things down, 713 00:43:32,560 --> 00:43:35,040 Speaker 1: and the journalists go outside and they say, oh, it's 714 00:43:35,080 --> 00:43:38,680 Speaker 1: a mostly there's a mostly peaceful protest. Oh in the 715 00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:42,840 Speaker 1: ducking whether molotov cocktails are flying past their heads. The 716 00:43:42,960 --> 00:43:47,320 Speaker 1: left gets away with political violence. It's not fair, it's wrong. 717 00:43:47,920 --> 00:43:53,160 Speaker 1: But the way we win is by convincing and showing 718 00:43:53,400 --> 00:43:57,560 Speaker 1: enough of our fellow Americans that this is disgusting, it's disgraceful, 719 00:43:57,640 --> 00:44:01,000 Speaker 1: and it is entirely coddled, if not supported by the 720 00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:05,360 Speaker 1: Democrat Party. And this makes it all much harder to 721 00:44:05,400 --> 00:44:07,840 Speaker 1: do that, which is why I don't. I mean, I 722 00:44:07,880 --> 00:44:10,200 Speaker 1: don't approve of it morally, I don't approve of a tactically, 723 00:44:11,280 --> 00:44:13,080 Speaker 1: And for people are gonna tell me, oh but buck, 724 00:44:13,120 --> 00:44:16,200 Speaker 1: look what they're willing to do. I mean, I've I 725 00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:19,840 Speaker 1: wanted there's a special counsel for Russia collusion that Attorney 726 00:44:19,880 --> 00:44:24,440 Speaker 1: General Barr has has already put in place. I wanted 727 00:44:24,440 --> 00:44:27,520 Speaker 1: a special counsel for Hunter Biden. I want us to 728 00:44:27,640 --> 00:44:34,000 Speaker 1: do what they did within the confines of the law. 729 00:44:35,760 --> 00:44:37,880 Speaker 1: That's where we you know, we have to draw a 730 00:44:37,920 --> 00:44:40,719 Speaker 1: line and we have to all be united in that one. 731 00:44:41,600 --> 00:44:45,280 Speaker 1: And is it is it hypocritical? Is it a degree 732 00:44:45,320 --> 00:44:50,400 Speaker 1: of madness for people who were cheering on the left 733 00:44:50,480 --> 00:44:55,080 Speaker 1: as they did their maniacal, you know, destruction campaigns. Is 734 00:44:55,800 --> 00:45:00,799 Speaker 1: it's disgusting. I absolutely hate it. Think they're cowards. I 735 00:45:00,800 --> 00:45:04,759 Speaker 1: think they're frauds. But one thing that I will tell you, 736 00:45:04,800 --> 00:45:06,839 Speaker 1: and this is and at the end of the day, 737 00:45:06,840 --> 00:45:09,960 Speaker 1: I actually spoke to my I spoke to my family 738 00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:13,000 Speaker 1: about this last Night's just let them know. It is 739 00:45:13,040 --> 00:45:15,640 Speaker 1: because I respect this audience so much and because I 740 00:45:15,680 --> 00:45:18,400 Speaker 1: respect what I do, that I will tell you the truth. 741 00:45:19,040 --> 00:45:20,920 Speaker 1: And that's what I think. I'm i'm I think I 742 00:45:20,960 --> 00:45:23,440 Speaker 1: do it every day. But today that involves saying things 743 00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:26,360 Speaker 1: that are going to make some of you upset with me. 744 00:45:26,400 --> 00:45:28,839 Speaker 1: You're gonna make some of you un follow me and uh, 745 00:45:29,000 --> 00:45:31,080 Speaker 1: and maybe you know you'll take a break from listening 746 00:45:31,080 --> 00:45:33,560 Speaker 1: to the show. I can't change that. I won't lie 747 00:45:33,600 --> 00:45:36,200 Speaker 1: to you, and I hope, I hope you appreciate where 748 00:45:36,239 --> 00:45:39,600 Speaker 1: that comes from. That doesn't mean I'm always right. If 749 00:45:39,640 --> 00:45:42,920 Speaker 1: you think I'm wrong, fine, If you think that I 750 00:45:42,960 --> 00:45:45,640 Speaker 1: don't understand the full scale of what's going on here 751 00:45:45,640 --> 00:45:50,960 Speaker 1: and the way this system is, that's you're completely entitled 752 00:45:50,960 --> 00:45:55,279 Speaker 1: that opinion. But I would hope that that those of 753 00:45:55,320 --> 00:45:57,640 Speaker 1: you who and I don't know, I don't know who 754 00:45:58,080 --> 00:46:02,080 Speaker 1: who agrees withdrawing a line and the unhelpful nature of 755 00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:04,840 Speaker 1: yes or what percentage of folks listening across the country 756 00:46:04,880 --> 00:46:07,360 Speaker 1: gear with me? I mean, I would guess it's maybe 757 00:46:08,200 --> 00:46:11,120 Speaker 1: fifty fifty, sixty forty. I don't know that that would 758 00:46:11,160 --> 00:46:13,279 Speaker 1: be my estimate, and we'll never have an answer for that. 759 00:46:13,320 --> 00:46:14,719 Speaker 1: But that's just so you know where my head is 760 00:46:14,719 --> 00:46:18,360 Speaker 1: on this. But for those who think that it's wrong 761 00:46:18,560 --> 00:46:23,160 Speaker 1: to criticize the illegal, and that's a completely separate thing 762 00:46:23,200 --> 00:46:26,400 Speaker 1: than the hundred fifty thousand or whatever it was people 763 00:46:26,800 --> 00:46:29,400 Speaker 1: marching through the streets protesting, those are my brothers and sisters. 764 00:46:29,440 --> 00:46:32,520 Speaker 1: Those are my people. They listen to this show. They 765 00:46:32,560 --> 00:46:35,600 Speaker 1: support me, They're the reason I have a job. It's 766 00:46:35,640 --> 00:46:37,839 Speaker 1: I got nothing but love and respect for them. But 767 00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:40,839 Speaker 1: I tell people, even the people closest to me, when 768 00:46:40,840 --> 00:46:43,560 Speaker 1: I think that they've made a mistake, and I owe 769 00:46:43,560 --> 00:46:45,200 Speaker 1: that's all you. And I said to my family last night, 770 00:46:45,239 --> 00:46:47,279 Speaker 1: and they, God bless them, they back me up. I said, guys, 771 00:46:47,400 --> 00:46:49,000 Speaker 1: I've got to be prince of I've got to be 772 00:46:49,600 --> 00:46:52,440 Speaker 1: true to myself, to this work, to the audience, to 773 00:46:52,520 --> 00:46:56,920 Speaker 1: be principled at this point, and and that means staring, 774 00:46:57,680 --> 00:47:00,640 Speaker 1: staring into what is happening now and telling them what 775 00:47:00,719 --> 00:47:03,280 Speaker 1: I see happening. I don't think that you would find 776 00:47:03,360 --> 00:47:07,360 Speaker 1: a radio host who has seen more things, more trends, 777 00:47:07,440 --> 00:47:11,680 Speaker 1: big trends coming in recent months than I have, particularly 778 00:47:11,680 --> 00:47:14,080 Speaker 1: when you look at lockdowns and masks and all these things. 779 00:47:15,200 --> 00:47:18,080 Speaker 1: You know, it's interesting. I actually went on Michael Malice's show, 780 00:47:18,600 --> 00:47:21,440 Speaker 1: who is quite an interesting quite an interesting guy. I 781 00:47:21,480 --> 00:47:24,640 Speaker 1: wanted to show maybe almost exactly twelve months ago now, 782 00:47:24,719 --> 00:47:27,960 Speaker 1: and I said that Democrats would refuse to certify the election. 783 00:47:28,040 --> 00:47:31,080 Speaker 1: That was my prediction on his show. And here we 784 00:47:31,120 --> 00:47:33,279 Speaker 1: are with a lot of Republicans who don't want to 785 00:47:33,280 --> 00:47:36,680 Speaker 1: certify the election. So I saw something, I just didn't 786 00:47:36,680 --> 00:47:41,120 Speaker 1: see which side it would be coming from. You're in 787 00:47:41,160 --> 00:47:44,719 Speaker 1: the Freedom, Hud. This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast. 788 00:47:48,560 --> 00:47:51,160 Speaker 1: Joe by now travel the world with Joe. I hope 789 00:47:51,200 --> 00:47:54,719 Speaker 1: he lost. I prayed he would lose. He won. He's 790 00:47:54,760 --> 00:47:58,920 Speaker 1: the legitimate president of the United States. I cannot convince 791 00:47:59,040 --> 00:48:03,200 Speaker 1: people brutes by my words, but I will tell you 792 00:48:03,239 --> 00:48:07,799 Speaker 1: by my actions that maybe I, among any above all 793 00:48:07,840 --> 00:48:10,920 Speaker 1: others in this body, need to say this. Joe Biden 794 00:48:11,360 --> 00:48:15,359 Speaker 1: and Kamala Harris are lawfully elected and will become the 795 00:48:15,400 --> 00:48:18,560 Speaker 1: President and the vice president of the United States on 796 00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:22,920 Speaker 1: January the twentieth. Is Lindsay gonna get to the bottom 797 00:48:22,920 --> 00:48:25,880 Speaker 1: of Russia Gate? I'm just wondering, doesn't. Does Lindsey Graham 798 00:48:25,920 --> 00:48:28,120 Speaker 1: have a have a Fox News appearance any minute now 799 00:48:28,120 --> 00:48:29,560 Speaker 1: where he's gonna you know, he's gonna get to the 800 00:48:29,560 --> 00:48:31,640 Speaker 1: bottom of it. Oh, he's gonna get to the bottom 801 00:48:31,680 --> 00:48:35,600 Speaker 1: of it. Sure he is at any moment now, Lindsay Lindsay, 802 00:48:35,680 --> 00:48:37,959 Speaker 1: Lindsay talks talks to a big game. But I would 803 00:48:38,040 --> 00:48:41,360 Speaker 1: say this right now, what he's telling you is is true. 804 00:48:41,480 --> 00:48:43,080 Speaker 1: I mean, does anyone want to does anyone want to 805 00:48:43,080 --> 00:48:45,520 Speaker 1: take a bet at this point that Joe Biden will 806 00:48:45,560 --> 00:48:48,480 Speaker 1: not be inaugurated the next president the United States. No, 807 00:48:49,160 --> 00:48:53,719 Speaker 1: we all know what's happening, and we've been talking about 808 00:48:53,719 --> 00:48:57,880 Speaker 1: it for quite a while here. Uh, Lindsey Graham and 809 00:48:57,920 --> 00:49:00,600 Speaker 1: some other Republicans are gonna take a lot of heat 810 00:49:00,640 --> 00:49:03,799 Speaker 1: for this, There's no question about that. I want to 811 00:49:03,800 --> 00:49:06,320 Speaker 1: try to tell everybody right now, to the greatest degree, 812 00:49:06,360 --> 00:49:09,560 Speaker 1: I can. You know what, my friends, it's it's disappointing, 813 00:49:09,600 --> 00:49:12,239 Speaker 1: and it's right. I'm I'm as I tweeted, by the way, 814 00:49:12,480 --> 00:49:16,680 Speaker 1: this is one of those moments I tweeted a couple 815 00:49:16,760 --> 00:49:19,120 Speaker 1: of days ago, strap in everybody, it's gonna be a 816 00:49:19,160 --> 00:49:22,040 Speaker 1: rough week. I didn't know how rough. I didn't know 817 00:49:22,040 --> 00:49:25,160 Speaker 1: how rough it was gonna be. Um, I didn't know 818 00:49:25,200 --> 00:49:26,880 Speaker 1: how this was going to end, how this was going 819 00:49:26,960 --> 00:49:30,000 Speaker 1: to end up. But sure enough I had a feeling. 820 00:49:30,800 --> 00:49:33,600 Speaker 1: And I give credit to my dad too. He just said, son, 821 00:49:33,640 --> 00:49:37,239 Speaker 1: I've I've got a sense that something really bad it's 822 00:49:37,239 --> 00:49:40,440 Speaker 1: going to happen before the inauguration, and I'm telling you this. 823 00:49:40,640 --> 00:49:42,600 Speaker 1: He doesn't think it's over yet either, He just he 824 00:49:42,719 --> 00:49:44,600 Speaker 1: just just a gut feeling. He just got a gut feeling, 825 00:49:44,600 --> 00:49:47,120 Speaker 1: and he was right. But he may be even more right. 826 00:49:47,760 --> 00:49:52,279 Speaker 1: Who knows, But it's I suppose are we at the 827 00:49:52,280 --> 00:49:54,560 Speaker 1: point where I can also say to everybody, you know, 828 00:49:55,760 --> 00:50:00,320 Speaker 1: we're gonna fight through this. That's who we are. What's 829 00:50:00,360 --> 00:50:03,759 Speaker 1: the alternative? We're gonna We're gonna tucktail and run. Oh no, 830 00:50:03,840 --> 00:50:06,200 Speaker 1: the system, the system is always But we're conservatives. This 831 00:50:06,239 --> 00:50:10,400 Speaker 1: system has always been against us. Right, it's not easy. 832 00:50:10,480 --> 00:50:12,640 Speaker 1: And those of you who are who are Christians, if 833 00:50:12,640 --> 00:50:14,279 Speaker 1: you look at the Bible, who did Jesus say it 834 00:50:14,400 --> 00:50:18,439 Speaker 1: was gonna be an easy thing to follow him? No, 835 00:50:19,400 --> 00:50:24,080 Speaker 1: this is not supposed to be easy. Who told anybody 836 00:50:24,280 --> 00:50:27,279 Speaker 1: on the right that this was gonna be fun? And 837 00:50:27,280 --> 00:50:29,920 Speaker 1: we're gonna just it's all gonna be straightforward and we're 838 00:50:29,960 --> 00:50:34,839 Speaker 1: gonna get our way And it's not happening. These are 839 00:50:34,840 --> 00:50:37,759 Speaker 1: the times that try men's souls. This is when we 840 00:50:37,840 --> 00:50:41,040 Speaker 1: have to find what we're really made of and stand 841 00:50:41,120 --> 00:50:45,960 Speaker 1: up and say, all right, it didn't go the way 842 00:50:46,000 --> 00:50:48,600 Speaker 1: that we had hoped. It is a gut punch, but 843 00:50:48,719 --> 00:50:51,439 Speaker 1: like actually getting punched in the gut, are we gonna 844 00:50:51,520 --> 00:50:53,360 Speaker 1: let the bully get away? With it and just and 845 00:50:53,440 --> 00:50:55,640 Speaker 1: just wallow on the ground. Are we gonna stand up 846 00:50:55,640 --> 00:50:58,040 Speaker 1: and say, Okay, you got me on that one. Let's 847 00:50:58,040 --> 00:51:00,719 Speaker 1: see what we got next. Let's see what we've gotten next. 848 00:51:00,760 --> 00:51:04,160 Speaker 1: And we're all making that psychological shift now. I know 849 00:51:04,239 --> 00:51:06,080 Speaker 1: there was a part of I was hoping it was 850 00:51:06,120 --> 00:51:08,960 Speaker 1: gonna be like Rocky five. I was hoping it would 851 00:51:08,960 --> 00:51:11,600 Speaker 1: be you know, the Russian is cut and then after 852 00:51:11,640 --> 00:51:15,640 Speaker 1: the election and we would have found a substance. All 853 00:51:15,680 --> 00:51:24,360 Speaker 1: we needed was one provable fraud of substantial votes that's 854 00:51:24,440 --> 00:51:28,879 Speaker 1: intentional and and with a whole house of cards would 855 00:51:28,880 --> 00:51:31,640 Speaker 1: have fallen. And I do I think it was there. Yeah, 856 00:51:31,680 --> 00:51:35,000 Speaker 1: I think, But guys, we didn't get it. We didn't 857 00:51:35,040 --> 00:51:38,880 Speaker 1: get it. I was talking to people that were involved 858 00:51:38,880 --> 00:51:40,040 Speaker 1: in trying to get it. I was having them on 859 00:51:40,080 --> 00:51:41,640 Speaker 1: the show, and I was talking to them offline, and 860 00:51:41,680 --> 00:51:43,560 Speaker 1: what you know, is there anything I can do to help? 861 00:51:43,600 --> 00:51:47,319 Speaker 1: I mean, I was going doing everything I could. You know. 862 00:51:47,560 --> 00:51:53,040 Speaker 1: I was the person who convinced Sean Parnell that he's 863 00:51:53,080 --> 00:51:54,960 Speaker 1: going to take well, he's got to take his internal 864 00:51:55,040 --> 00:51:56,760 Speaker 1: data and go public with it about what had happened 865 00:51:56,760 --> 00:51:59,680 Speaker 1: in Pennsylvania. And that became Pennsylvania was a state where 866 00:51:59,719 --> 00:52:03,960 Speaker 1: I think some of the shadiest stuff happened. But Joe 867 00:52:03,960 --> 00:52:06,440 Speaker 1: Biden has been certified as the President of United States, 868 00:52:06,440 --> 00:52:09,480 Speaker 1: and now we have to start thinking about what comes next. 869 00:52:10,360 --> 00:52:14,440 Speaker 1: We have to take action on things like how do 870 00:52:14,560 --> 00:52:17,719 Speaker 1: we begin to level the playing field here? And it's 871 00:52:17,760 --> 00:52:19,720 Speaker 1: going to take a long that's a long term project. 872 00:52:19,920 --> 00:52:25,240 Speaker 1: How do we level the playing field with platforms and media? 873 00:52:25,360 --> 00:52:28,319 Speaker 1: How do we level the playing field with corporate America's 874 00:52:28,400 --> 00:52:31,600 Speaker 1: culture that favors the left and wokeness and diversity and 875 00:52:31,680 --> 00:52:37,040 Speaker 1: inclusion worship. How do we do that? This is now 876 00:52:37,160 --> 00:52:40,839 Speaker 1: our our project, because I can tell you this much. 877 00:52:40,880 --> 00:52:45,440 Speaker 1: The people that are that are taking the approach of 878 00:52:46,840 --> 00:52:51,480 Speaker 1: it's all over. What's the point is that? Is that 879 00:52:51,520 --> 00:52:53,640 Speaker 1: the lesson that we get from our our history as 880 00:52:53,680 --> 00:52:58,239 Speaker 1: a country. Yeah, do you do you think that Washington 881 00:52:58,920 --> 00:53:01,280 Speaker 1: and Yeah, that's right. I'm gonna started invoking the founding fathers. 882 00:53:01,280 --> 00:53:02,799 Speaker 1: You think the Washington and all those guys were like, 883 00:53:02,800 --> 00:53:05,160 Speaker 1: you know what, the British, You've got a lot more 884 00:53:05,239 --> 00:53:08,439 Speaker 1: resources and they're more powerful than us, And so we're 885 00:53:08,440 --> 00:53:12,040 Speaker 1: just gonna We're gonna give in. Of course not it's 886 00:53:12,080 --> 00:53:13,560 Speaker 1: not who we are. It's not what we're gonna do. 887 00:53:14,680 --> 00:53:16,279 Speaker 1: I think we have a I think we have a 888 00:53:16,400 --> 00:53:20,840 Speaker 1: very we have a very well. Actually, no, do we 889 00:53:20,840 --> 00:53:22,680 Speaker 1: have a bright future as a country? I hope. So 890 00:53:23,120 --> 00:53:25,320 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna again I cannot tell a lie. I 891 00:53:25,760 --> 00:53:27,960 Speaker 1: hope we have a bright future as a country. But 892 00:53:28,080 --> 00:53:32,319 Speaker 1: I do know that the more we can all see 893 00:53:33,040 --> 00:53:37,600 Speaker 1: what matters to us as conservatives, what matters to us 894 00:53:37,640 --> 00:53:43,600 Speaker 1: as people that supported the Trump movement and now understand 895 00:53:43,600 --> 00:53:48,480 Speaker 1: that we have to create a conservative populism that continues on, 896 00:53:49,160 --> 00:53:51,440 Speaker 1: we have we have to build. What is it that 897 00:53:51,680 --> 00:53:55,440 Speaker 1: resonated so much? Yes it was fighting the media. Yes 898 00:53:55,480 --> 00:53:59,080 Speaker 1: it was talking about the truth about illegal immigration. Yes 899 00:53:59,120 --> 00:54:02,080 Speaker 1: it was trade in China. Well, those are all still 900 00:54:02,200 --> 00:54:08,600 Speaker 1: very much live issues. And we are very very close 901 00:54:09,840 --> 00:54:12,680 Speaker 1: and and and I really believe this. We're very close 902 00:54:12,719 --> 00:54:17,760 Speaker 1: to a sea change in American perceptions about the elites 903 00:54:17,800 --> 00:54:20,520 Speaker 1: and the roles of major corporations in our society. And 904 00:54:20,719 --> 00:54:23,560 Speaker 1: I think we'll get to a consensus point where we 905 00:54:23,560 --> 00:54:27,320 Speaker 1: can actually do something about them. Finally, thanks for listening 906 00:54:27,400 --> 00:54:31,839 Speaker 1: to the bus Show posts.

You know, doctor Fauci is 909 00:54:43,320 --> 00:54:48,000 Speaker 1: still out there, and this guy and I we have 910 00:54:48,480 --> 00:54:53,920 Speaker 1: a very serious, longstanding now disagreement over how much destruction 911 00:54:54,040 --> 00:54:56,400 Speaker 1: should be done to the United States because of his 912 00:54:57,239 --> 00:55:01,640 Speaker 1: catastrophic lockdown policies. Wasn't Wasn't it kind of amazing that 913 00:55:01,760 --> 00:55:06,400 Speaker 1: yesterday we didn't even have really any and there's no 914 00:55:06,480 --> 00:55:09,000 Speaker 1: media focus on coronavirus the first time I think since 915 00:55:09,040 --> 00:55:11,560 Speaker 1: the pandemic began where there was a day where it 916 00:55:11,600 --> 00:55:14,200 Speaker 1: was okay, we don't have to really think as much 917 00:55:14,239 --> 00:55:18,640 Speaker 1: about about coronavirus. One place where you're gonna see a 918 00:55:18,800 --> 00:55:25,840 Speaker 1: whole lot of rewriting of history and propagandizing is around 919 00:55:25,880 --> 00:55:32,280 Speaker 1: the incoming bind administration's handling of COVID, because here's here's 920 00:55:32,320 --> 00:55:34,520 Speaker 1: the big secret, that's not a secret at all, But 921 00:55:34,560 --> 00:55:37,479 Speaker 1: they're going to pretend they don't have some better plan. 922 00:55:38,239 --> 00:55:42,640 Speaker 1: It never existed. There there is no better Biden plan 923 00:55:42,800 --> 00:55:47,440 Speaker 1: for tackling COVID. In fact, the primary criticisms that I 924 00:55:47,480 --> 00:55:51,960 Speaker 1: have of the President's handling of Trump's handling of COVID 925 00:55:52,040 --> 00:55:57,880 Speaker 1: up to this point has been listening to Fauci too much, 926 00:55:59,760 --> 00:56:02,440 Speaker 1: and this is going to continue on into the future 927 00:56:02,760 --> 00:56:06,080 Speaker 1: the same way that we've We've reached a politics now 928 00:56:06,080 --> 00:56:07,680 Speaker 1: where there's no trust on the other side, and then 929 00:56:07,719 --> 00:56:10,719 Speaker 1: there's also no willingness to say, maybe you guys were 930 00:56:10,719 --> 00:56:14,080 Speaker 1: actually right about something. That's a that's a generally true 931 00:56:14,120 --> 00:56:16,680 Speaker 1: statement now in American politics, where you never want to 932 00:56:16,719 --> 00:56:19,319 Speaker 1: concede anything to the other side because why they're the 933 00:56:19,360 --> 00:56:23,280 Speaker 1: other side, and why make that concession. You're certainly seeing 934 00:56:23,320 --> 00:56:27,040 Speaker 1: that now and you'll continue to see it with the 935 00:56:28,160 --> 00:56:33,520 Speaker 1: latest on COVID nineteen. But but here's Fauci saying, this 936 00:56:33,600 --> 00:56:36,200 Speaker 1: is on the daily wire. The US won't return to 937 00:56:36,280 --> 00:56:43,880 Speaker 1: a strong semblance of normality until the fall. Now here's 938 00:56:43,880 --> 00:56:46,000 Speaker 1: what I see happen. Now, wait, wait, before I get 939 00:56:46,040 --> 00:56:51,239 Speaker 1: into what's going to happen, let me just also say, yeah, 940 00:56:51,520 --> 00:56:53,759 Speaker 1: we were supposed to get twenty million people vaccinated by 941 00:56:53,760 --> 00:56:56,080 Speaker 1: the end of twenty twenty. They got about five billion people. 942 00:56:56,120 --> 00:56:58,720 Speaker 1: We're running at about twenty five percent of what we thought, 943 00:56:59,080 --> 00:57:02,799 Speaker 1: which is a disgrace. Let's let's just have real talk. Now, 944 00:57:02,840 --> 00:57:05,080 Speaker 1: let's have an honest talk about this. We can't figure 945 00:57:05,120 --> 00:57:11,759 Speaker 1: this out better, We can't get fifty our capacity done 946 00:57:11,800 --> 00:57:15,000 Speaker 1: and This is because the micro managing at the state 947 00:57:15,040 --> 00:57:18,800 Speaker 1: and local level of the vaccination process is a disaster, 948 00:57:19,800 --> 00:57:23,480 Speaker 1: an absolute disaster. And when you have doctors who have 949 00:57:23,520 --> 00:57:28,640 Speaker 1: to throw out vaccine in the trash because they're not allowed, 950 00:57:28,680 --> 00:57:33,840 Speaker 1: and now they're threatened, they're threatened with fines, they're threatened 951 00:57:33,880 --> 00:57:38,480 Speaker 1: with being punished if they get the vaccine into someone's arm. 952 00:57:38,800 --> 00:57:41,320 Speaker 1: We have a government that has set this up in 953 00:57:41,360 --> 00:57:43,120 Speaker 1: a way, and I'm talking about New York State, but 954 00:57:43,160 --> 00:57:47,520 Speaker 1: it's true in other states as well, where it's better 955 00:57:47,760 --> 00:57:51,200 Speaker 1: to throw vaccine in the trash under the rules than 956 00:57:51,240 --> 00:57:54,640 Speaker 1: to just give it to someone who wants it. And 957 00:57:54,800 --> 00:57:57,680 Speaker 1: you know what, they really should just do. They should 958 00:57:57,720 --> 00:58:00,280 Speaker 1: just they should just set this up where they should 959 00:58:00,280 --> 00:58:02,600 Speaker 1: get it to private practice providers. They should get it 960 00:58:02,600 --> 00:58:04,920 Speaker 1: into the Duayanne reads and the and the cvs is 961 00:58:04,960 --> 00:58:08,720 Speaker 1: and the Walmarts and everything or Walgreens whatever, And they say, 962 00:58:08,760 --> 00:58:11,440 Speaker 1: all right, everybody, you know, we're we're gonna have a 963 00:58:11,480 --> 00:58:14,840 Speaker 1: prior we're gonna have priority line for seniors, and we're 964 00:58:14,840 --> 00:58:18,439 Speaker 1: gonna have a line for non seniors, and we get 965 00:58:18,480 --> 00:58:20,840 Speaker 1: through all the seniors first, and obviously you'd have to 966 00:58:20,880 --> 00:58:22,360 Speaker 1: distance them out and make sure this was safe, but 967 00:58:22,360 --> 00:58:23,840 Speaker 1: we get through all the seniors first, and then if 968 00:58:23,840 --> 00:58:25,680 Speaker 1: we got we got more vaccine than we haven't used, 969 00:58:25,680 --> 00:58:27,920 Speaker 1: we're gonna give it to everys in line. And I 970 00:58:27,960 --> 00:58:30,720 Speaker 1: know that's that seems like sloppy and haphazard at all, 971 00:58:30,800 --> 00:58:34,280 Speaker 1: but well, what they're doing right now is we have, 972 00:58:34,480 --> 00:58:36,400 Speaker 1: you know, five seniors, but we had to have ten 973 00:58:36,520 --> 00:58:38,720 Speaker 1: ten vials of vaccine because I think they're coming in 974 00:58:38,720 --> 00:58:42,439 Speaker 1: ten packs, mostly thought out, and so we're gonna throw 975 00:58:42,560 --> 00:58:47,320 Speaker 1: half of it away, throw it away, the throwing vaccine away. 976 00:58:48,600 --> 00:58:51,439 Speaker 1: Think about in DC, they had to establish a rule 977 00:58:51,520 --> 00:58:53,440 Speaker 1: that if you don't have anyone to give it to, 978 00:58:53,560 --> 00:58:56,000 Speaker 1: who's in this is the DC government, I'm talking about 979 00:58:56,000 --> 00:58:58,080 Speaker 1: the local government. If you don't have anybody to give 980 00:58:58,080 --> 00:58:59,919 Speaker 1: it to, but you have vaccine and it's gonna go bad, 981 00:59:00,000 --> 00:59:02,520 Speaker 1: you can just give it to somebody. Remember that this 982 00:59:02,600 --> 00:59:06,000 Speaker 1: is all about the herd immunity, the public, the collective 983 00:59:06,040 --> 00:59:12,959 Speaker 1: benefit of herd immunity for everybody. And you know, it's 984 00:59:12,960 --> 00:59:17,560 Speaker 1: just amazing. Faucci. Faucci just keeps moving the goalposts all 985 00:59:17,560 --> 00:59:21,200 Speaker 1: the time, and and he doesn't know what the heck 986 00:59:21,200 --> 00:59:22,760 Speaker 1: he's talking about, because he's saying we need to get 987 00:59:22,840 --> 00:59:26,240 Speaker 1: ninety percent of people vaccinated. What percentage of Americans have 988 00:59:26,280 --> 00:59:28,960 Speaker 1: already had this virus and therefore have immunity to it. 989 00:59:29,840 --> 00:59:32,240 Speaker 1: I don't know the end. No one knows the actual answer, 990 00:59:32,280 --> 00:59:34,919 Speaker 1: but I think you'd have to say a fair guest 991 00:59:35,000 --> 00:59:39,120 Speaker 1: would be something in the neighborhood of ten to twenty percent. 992 00:59:39,160 --> 00:59:41,640 Speaker 1: Maybe I don't know, maybe thirty percent of the country 993 00:59:41,720 --> 00:59:43,600 Speaker 1: has actually had this and doesn't even really know it. 994 00:59:45,560 --> 00:59:48,560 Speaker 1: You know, there's a huge number of cases that are 995 00:59:48,600 --> 00:59:51,640 Speaker 1: that are determined to remember, they say that asymptomatic spread 996 00:59:51,760 --> 00:59:53,920 Speaker 1: is a very large component of it, and a lot 997 00:59:53,960 --> 00:59:55,880 Speaker 1: of people don't even realize that they have any symptoms 998 00:59:55,880 --> 00:59:59,280 Speaker 1: at all. But Faucci saying, quote, I believe it. We do. Sorry, 999 00:59:59,320 --> 01:00:03,919 Speaker 1: here we go. If we diligently vaccine, vaccinate people in April, May, June, July, 1000 01:00:04,880 --> 01:00:07,200 Speaker 1: we'll gradually and notice we get a degree of protection 1001 01:00:07,720 --> 01:00:10,520 Speaker 1: approaching herd immunity, which I believe. First of all, no 1002 01:00:10,520 --> 01:00:13,120 Speaker 1: one really knows what absolute herd immunity is for coronavirus. 1003 01:00:13,160 --> 01:00:14,640 Speaker 1: We know what it is for measles because we have 1004 01:00:14,680 --> 01:00:17,280 Speaker 1: decades of experience with measles. So I would say it's 1005 01:00:17,280 --> 01:00:20,280 Speaker 1: somewhere between seventy percent and eighty five percent. Fauci says, 1006 01:00:20,800 --> 01:00:22,480 Speaker 1: I believe that if we do the kind of vaccines 1007 01:00:22,480 --> 01:00:24,480 Speaker 1: through April, May, June, July, by the time we get 1008 01:00:24,480 --> 01:00:27,080 Speaker 1: to early fall, we'll have enough good herd immunity to 1009 01:00:27,120 --> 01:00:28,960 Speaker 1: be able to get back to some strong semblance of 1010 01:00:29,000 --> 01:00:32,640 Speaker 1: normality schools, theater, sports events, restaurants. I believe if we 1011 01:00:32,680 --> 01:00:38,400 Speaker 1: do it correctly, we'll be there by early fall. And 1012 01:00:38,440 --> 01:00:41,520 Speaker 1: we're supposed to be happy about this. We're supposed to 1013 01:00:41,520 --> 01:00:43,040 Speaker 1: think that that's some kind of I mean, of course 1014 01:00:43,080 --> 01:00:45,080 Speaker 1: you'd be happy with the reopening, but we're supposed to 1015 01:00:45,240 --> 01:00:48,520 Speaker 1: think the process is being well managed. Here. It's gonna 1016 01:00:48,560 --> 01:00:51,080 Speaker 1: take we've had we will have had a vaccine for 1017 01:00:51,200 --> 01:00:55,560 Speaker 1: nine months at that point, and that's when we're supposed 1018 01:00:55,600 --> 01:00:57,440 Speaker 1: to start getting back to normal. I'm gonna tell this 1019 01:00:57,560 --> 01:01:00,800 Speaker 1: right now too. You're gonna have like math dead enders 1020 01:01:01,080 --> 01:01:04,400 Speaker 1: who long after we've reached the you know, hurt. I mean, 1021 01:01:04,400 --> 01:01:07,000 Speaker 1: there's still there's not gonna be a little warmusk wear 1022 01:01:07,080 --> 01:01:12,640 Speaker 1: a mask. They've been so traumatized about this stuff, brainwash, traumatized. 1023 01:01:13,400 --> 01:01:16,200 Speaker 1: It's like the person who was on the train we 1024 01:01:16,280 --> 01:01:17,919 Speaker 1: played that for earlier in the week when it felt 1025 01:01:17,960 --> 01:01:20,200 Speaker 1: like we were in a very different news cycle. Person 1026 01:01:20,240 --> 01:01:23,920 Speaker 1: on the train, he was, I have seventy thousand Twitter followers, 1027 01:01:24,480 --> 01:01:27,120 Speaker 1: and she's you know, taking photos of people in masks, 1028 01:01:27,120 --> 01:01:31,680 Speaker 1: shaming them seventy thousand Twitter followers. She didn't really sound 1029 01:01:31,760 --> 01:01:33,640 Speaker 1: like that, but that's just kind of my general old 1030 01:01:33,720 --> 01:01:37,000 Speaker 1: lady voice. Prus and Mark, you know any old ladies 1031 01:01:37,080 --> 01:01:41,240 Speaker 1: or sounding like that. Yeah, Joe Joy behar joy bait. No, 1032 01:01:41,440 --> 01:01:44,840 Speaker 1: Joy is like more gravelly, it's more it's more like 1033 01:01:45,000 --> 01:01:47,920 Speaker 1: this Joy. It's got a little bit, you know, she's 1034 01:01:47,920 --> 01:01:53,600 Speaker 1: got a little bit of light like down here exactly. 1035 01:01:54,360 --> 01:01:56,640 Speaker 1: So she's kind of got this thing, you know, she's, Oh, 1036 01:01:56,720 --> 01:01:59,240 Speaker 1: I'm Joy. I talk like this all the time. So 1037 01:01:59,560 --> 01:02:03,080 Speaker 1: she's she's been very mean to uh Megan McCain on 1038 01:02:03,080 --> 01:02:05,720 Speaker 1: the View recently, very snippy with her. I don't know 1039 01:02:05,720 --> 01:02:08,400 Speaker 1: what that's all about. I can't imagine doing that show. 1040 01:02:08,520 --> 01:02:10,080 Speaker 1: That show to me, would just as a as a 1041 01:02:10,480 --> 01:02:13,320 Speaker 1: even a right of center person, not even a particularly conservative, 1042 01:02:13,320 --> 01:02:16,320 Speaker 1: as a right of center person. It just feels like 1043 01:02:16,320 --> 01:02:19,160 Speaker 1: it would be a mule kick. I'd watch with popcorn 1044 01:02:19,200 --> 01:02:21,080 Speaker 1: if they brought you on as a guest I would 1045 01:02:21,080 --> 01:02:24,520 Speaker 1: watch with popcorn. Yeah, it would probably be pretty pretty 1046 01:02:24,600 --> 01:02:26,400 Speaker 1: pretty decent TV because they would all, you know, I 1047 01:02:26,400 --> 01:02:28,000 Speaker 1: would try to be polite to the ladies at first, 1048 01:02:28,040 --> 01:02:29,600 Speaker 1: but then to be like, you know, yo, why why 1049 01:02:29,640 --> 01:02:32,960 Speaker 1: aren't you? Why aren't you? Would say the Trump is 1050 01:02:33,040 --> 01:02:39,600 Speaker 1: basically Hitler Hitler black quack? Wow? Is that that's really 1051 01:02:40,800 --> 01:02:44,880 Speaker 1: that's actually her buck, that's actually her wow quack quick 1052 01:02:45,360 --> 01:02:50,919 Speaker 1: stop it. Yeah, she's a she's quite a quite a commentator, 1053 01:02:51,040 --> 01:02:54,720 Speaker 1: you know, get get your politics from an unfunny comedian. 1054 01:02:55,280 --> 01:02:56,800 Speaker 1: That's that's the way a lot of people, a lot 1055 01:02:56,840 --> 01:02:59,560 Speaker 1: of people like to do it. So we're we're working 1056 01:02:59,600 --> 01:03:02,560 Speaker 1: on it. And then as Fauci, the Fauci's down here. 1057 01:03:03,440 --> 01:03:06,640 Speaker 1: You know, the mitigation efforts and you know, however, if 1058 01:03:06,680 --> 01:03:09,280 Speaker 1: you do it all correct, you know, you mitigate, you 1059 01:03:09,400 --> 01:03:12,600 Speaker 1: do this thing, you do that thing. You know. Yeah. Yeah, 1060 01:03:12,640 --> 01:03:16,120 Speaker 1: So so we'll see producer Mark, we need some happy 1061 01:03:16,160 --> 01:03:19,120 Speaker 1: time talk, man, What are you most what are you 1062 01:03:19,160 --> 01:03:23,280 Speaker 1: most excited about going forward? Well, right now, the Mets 1063 01:03:23,280 --> 01:03:26,160 Speaker 1: are in the midst of making a blockbuster trade. So 1064 01:03:26,200 --> 01:03:29,120 Speaker 1: that's what's on my docket at the moment. Who now 1065 01:03:29,240 --> 01:03:31,240 Speaker 1: tell it? Tell us some happy things. Man, Man, what's 1066 01:03:31,280 --> 01:03:35,240 Speaker 1: the blockbuster trade? The Mets are acquiring Francisco Lindore, who 1067 01:03:35,320 --> 01:03:39,080 Speaker 1: is one of the top shortstops in baseball from Cleveland. 1068 01:03:41,400 --> 01:03:43,320 Speaker 1: I've never even heard of this. I know you haven't, 1069 01:03:43,360 --> 01:03:45,960 Speaker 1: but for me, Buck, just know, it's great news for me, 1070 01:03:46,000 --> 01:03:48,720 Speaker 1: and we needed great news. I know not everyone listening 1071 01:03:48,720 --> 01:03:50,480 Speaker 1: as a Mets fan, but I needed great news. It 1072 01:03:50,520 --> 01:03:54,560 Speaker 1: lifted my spirits. Well what is the the the truest rivalry? 1073 01:03:54,840 --> 01:03:57,160 Speaker 1: I mean, because then the Yankees are in a different division, right, 1074 01:03:57,200 --> 01:04:00,280 Speaker 1: So who are the Mets biggest rival that they actually 1075 01:04:00,280 --> 01:04:03,240 Speaker 1: are in the division with? Um probably the Phillies off 1076 01:04:03,240 --> 01:04:07,120 Speaker 1: the top, Phillies and Braves would be the two. Are 1077 01:04:07,160 --> 01:04:11,240 Speaker 1: the Braves changing their name? No, the Clevelandraves are staying, 1078 01:04:11,280 --> 01:04:14,960 Speaker 1: but the Cleveland Indians have changed their name. But yes 1079 01:04:15,000 --> 01:04:18,040 Speaker 1: they will, right, They're just Cleveland now, right, They're just 1080 01:04:18,080 --> 01:04:22,000 Speaker 1: the Cleveland Technically they're still the Indians for this season, 1081 01:04:22,280 --> 01:04:27,439 Speaker 1: but after this season they will change it. M Okay, yeah, 1082 01:04:27,600 --> 01:04:30,240 Speaker 1: sports will be coming back. We need this stuff, folks, 1083 01:04:30,240 --> 01:04:32,200 Speaker 1: I mean, I Mark, I really believe is. I think 1084 01:04:32,240 --> 01:04:35,440 Speaker 1: that it has been really hard on people because you 1085 01:04:35,520 --> 01:04:39,440 Speaker 1: need these things that you can discuss that just establishes 1086 01:04:39,520 --> 01:04:43,680 Speaker 1: that sort of chit chat and banter among human beings 1087 01:04:43,800 --> 01:04:45,960 Speaker 1: in day to day contact. It's actually a really good 1088 01:04:46,000 --> 01:04:48,600 Speaker 1: healthy thing. Yeah. It's like it's nice to be able 1089 01:04:48,600 --> 01:04:50,520 Speaker 1: to say, hey, you see the game last night. I 1090 01:04:50,840 --> 01:04:53,680 Speaker 1: know it's a bit of a cliche, but you're relating 1091 01:04:53,720 --> 01:04:55,880 Speaker 1: to people and it gives you commonality. This is, you know, 1092 01:04:55,920 --> 01:04:59,280 Speaker 1: I have friends and family that we talk about books 1093 01:04:59,360 --> 01:05:01,080 Speaker 1: when I see them. My friends when we talk about 1094 01:05:01,080 --> 01:05:03,680 Speaker 1: food or cooking, or we talk about you know, talking 1095 01:05:03,680 --> 01:05:05,720 Speaker 1: about the gym with people. If I'm trying to, you know, 1096 01:05:05,760 --> 01:05:08,840 Speaker 1: get back into shape, which I still amn't failing so far, 1097 01:05:08,960 --> 01:05:11,680 Speaker 1: but I'm trying. Uh. You know, you have these sorts 1098 01:05:11,680 --> 01:05:14,120 Speaker 1: of discussions. I think it's I think it's important. Do 1099 01:05:14,000 --> 01:05:15,919 Speaker 1: you do you agree with everybody in your family on sports? 1100 01:05:15,960 --> 01:05:17,440 Speaker 1: Are they all on the same team with you? Oh? No, 1101 01:05:17,520 --> 01:05:21,200 Speaker 1: My father's a Yankee fan. Oh my god, he hates 1102 01:05:21,280 --> 01:05:24,080 Speaker 1: that I'm a Mets fan. Producer Mark, This is kind 1103 01:05:24,080 --> 01:05:27,000 Speaker 1: of like a Sigmund Freud was sitting down, he would say, 1104 01:05:27,040 --> 01:05:31,280 Speaker 1: I think we've established an issue here. You have a 1105 01:05:31,360 --> 01:05:34,240 Speaker 1: very different team you support from your dad. Tell me 1106 01:05:34,320 --> 01:05:38,000 Speaker 1: more about your father that's my Sigmund Freud. Okay, it's 1107 01:05:38,120 --> 01:05:40,720 Speaker 1: very good. Yeah, I agree with him on all the 1108 01:05:40,720 --> 01:05:44,480 Speaker 1: other teams though, at least. Yeah, yeah, well that's good. So, 1109 01:05:44,640 --> 01:05:46,680 Speaker 1: like you're a Giants fan, obviously, I'm a Giants fan. 1110 01:05:46,680 --> 01:05:49,240 Speaker 1: I'm a range. Hockey's my second or my first favorite 1111 01:05:49,240 --> 01:05:52,720 Speaker 1: sport really, so I'm a Ranger fan. Yeah.

We all want to have a 1115 01:06:00,160 --> 01:06:03,480 Speaker 1: little bit of of a feeling of of you know, 1116 01:06:03,560 --> 01:06:07,000 Speaker 1: optimism and and just find We're all trying to find 1117 01:06:07,000 --> 01:06:10,640 Speaker 1: our happy place. Ryan's always a happy the happy Gilmore 1118 01:06:10,800 --> 01:06:13,000 Speaker 1: thing where he's walking around with the pictures of beer 1119 01:06:13,080 --> 01:06:14,880 Speaker 1: and the lady in the lingerie and you know, the 1120 01:06:14,880 --> 01:06:18,040 Speaker 1: whole thing. Remember that movie. Obviously, right of course you're 1121 01:06:18,080 --> 01:06:20,960 Speaker 1: the happy place. You know, We're all we're all trying 1122 01:06:20,960 --> 01:06:22,600 Speaker 1: to find a happy place to go to where we 1123 01:06:22,640 --> 01:06:24,880 Speaker 1: can just sort of say we're riding. We're riding this 1124 01:06:24,920 --> 01:06:27,240 Speaker 1: thing out because you know, the winter time unless you're 1125 01:06:27,240 --> 01:06:29,400 Speaker 1: in Florida, and I know I've basically been doing a 1126 01:06:29,440 --> 01:06:34,320 Speaker 1: free Florida Department of you know, commerce, or visitors center 1127 01:06:34,400 --> 01:06:37,480 Speaker 1: or whatever thing here.

Yes, I 1133 01:06:50,200 --> 01:06:51,800 Speaker 1: think I think we'd do some of that. Maybe, you know, 1134 01:06:51,840 --> 01:06:53,760 Speaker 1: do what should we drop?

I can record the second one this weekend. 1140 01:07:05,080 --> 01:07:06,720 Speaker 1: I'll have some time. I just don't want to release 1141 01:07:06,760 --> 01:07:08,760 Speaker 1: one for the listeners and then you take three months 1142 01:07:08,800 --> 01:07:11,960 Speaker 1: to record the second one. That's a fair So you 1143 01:07:12,000 --> 01:07:13,560 Speaker 1: want me to get two in the can, which is 1144 01:07:13,560 --> 01:07:15,520 Speaker 1: the whole ball to series, and then we release one 1145 01:07:15,560 --> 01:07:17,960 Speaker 1: then the other.

I mean, 1197 01:10:02,200 --> 01:10:07,320 Speaker 1: Anderson Cooper is an elitist snob, he is, and this 1198 01:10:07,360 --> 01:10:08,920 Speaker 1: is a man. Know this is minor in the grants 1199 01:10:08,920 --> 01:10:10,840 Speaker 1: giving things this week, but they'll go back to the 1200 01:10:10,880 --> 01:10:13,240 Speaker 1: Olive Garden and then in the holiday in express.

Oh? 1205 01:10:27,880 --> 01:10:31,040 Speaker 1: Good heavens? You know. Yeah, that's right, that's right, that's right, Cooper. 1206 01:10:31,040 --> 01:10:34,040 Speaker 1: They don't have private chefs, they don't come from the 1207 01:10:34,160 --> 01:10:38,080 Speaker 1: Vanderbilt family. They're just people who do their best and 1208 01:10:38,160 --> 01:10:41,760 Speaker 1: are working to make a living. And yeah, some of them, 1209 01:10:42,120 --> 01:10:44,559 Speaker 1: some of them made a made a made a bad 1210 01:10:44,600 --> 01:10:47,040 Speaker 1: move yesterday. But most of the people that were in DC, 1211 01:10:47,240 --> 01:10:49,960 Speaker 1: of vast majority of them were just being good people 1212 01:10:50,000 --> 01:10:54,040 Speaker 1: and doing their thing so and being completely law about him. 1213 01:10:54,040 --> 01:10:57,280 Speaker 1: But I think it's you catch this sometimes. Yeah, the 1214 01:10:57,400 --> 01:11:01,439 Speaker 1: journalists out there who represent you know, elite consensus opinion, 1215 01:11:02,200 --> 01:11:07,080 Speaker 1: they they are pompous, uh, you know, jerks, they really 1216 01:11:07,120 --> 01:11:08,559 Speaker 1: and there are other words I want to use, but 1217 01:11:08,600 --> 01:11:13,240 Speaker 1: I can't because it's a family show. Um, they're their 1218 01:11:13,280 --> 01:11:15,640 Speaker 1: elite is. They're snobs, and they actually do think they 1219 01:11:15,640 --> 01:11:17,240 Speaker 1: are better and get there's gonna be a lot more 1220 01:11:17,240 --> 01:11:20,840 Speaker 1: of this. They actually think they're better as people than 1221 01:11:20,880 --> 01:11:22,920 Speaker 1: anybody who voted for Trump. And I don't mean because 1222 01:11:22,960 --> 01:11:28,320 Speaker 1: of the Trump voting culturally, uh intellectually they think that 1223 01:11:28,360 --> 01:11:30,519 Speaker 1: they're above them. But I don't think it's so funny. 1224 01:11:30,520 --> 01:11:33,559 Speaker 1: I mean, what, what's wrong? What's wrong with the Olive Garden? Like, well, 1225 01:11:33,560 --> 01:11:36,160 Speaker 1: why why is Anderson got to take a shot at 1226 01:11:36,200 --> 01:11:39,360 Speaker 1: the olive Garden? That's brucer Mark?

All right, man, 1240 01:12:31,360 --> 01:12:33,120 Speaker 1: let me just pose this to you, because right we 1241 01:12:33,280 --> 01:12:37,040 Speaker 1: need a really open among the movement, among our people, 1242 01:12:37,120 --> 01:12:39,560 Speaker 1: so to speak, We need to have a really open conversation. 1243 01:12:39,960 --> 01:12:44,760 Speaker 1: What now, right? I mean there there are a couple 1244 01:12:44,800 --> 01:12:49,599 Speaker 1: of things. I mean, the last the last couple months 1245 01:12:49,720 --> 01:12:55,280 Speaker 1: have really been infuriating to me because as we see 1246 01:12:55,320 --> 01:12:58,200 Speaker 1: as time goes on, I mean we saw that you know, 1247 01:12:58,240 --> 01:13:02,800 Speaker 1: the President Trump sort of accepted the peaceful transfer of 1248 01:13:02,840 --> 01:13:06,880 Speaker 1: power and basically he he um, he brought down the 1249 01:13:06,920 --> 01:13:12,920 Speaker 1: curtain on on on on his his his presidency. Um. 1250 01:13:12,960 --> 01:13:19,759 Speaker 1: Today um, he started talking about his first term last 1251 01:13:19,880 --> 01:13:24,879 Speaker 1: yesterday in his speech in past tense for the first time, UM, 1252 01:13:25,080 --> 01:13:29,639 Speaker 1: which I think, you know, the situation that he had, uh, 1253 01:13:29,680 --> 01:13:31,840 Speaker 1: that he had put himself in, and that really that 1254 01:13:31,920 --> 01:13:34,559 Speaker 1: others had pushed him in into this corner, which is 1255 01:13:34,560 --> 01:13:39,160 Speaker 1: that uh, there was really, since the end of November, 1256 01:13:39,680 --> 01:13:45,800 Speaker 1: no legitimate path um to to him securing securing a 1257 01:13:45,880 --> 01:13:49,080 Speaker 1: second term. That was the truth. That's what you know. 1258 01:13:49,200 --> 01:13:51,439 Speaker 1: Look looking at the facts. I didn't want that. I 1259 01:13:51,520 --> 01:13:54,720 Speaker 1: wanted him to I wanted him to succeed. I thought 1260 01:13:54,760 --> 01:13:58,880 Speaker 1: there was plenty of fraud, UM. But by the end 1261 01:13:58,880 --> 01:14:02,600 Speaker 1: of November it was pretty clear to me and to 1262 01:14:02,680 --> 01:14:05,920 Speaker 1: many others that this just was not going to happen. 1263 01:14:06,080 --> 01:14:09,559 Speaker 1: And for one reason or another, UM, he and a 1264 01:14:09,560 --> 01:14:14,240 Speaker 1: lot of his supporters UM were pushed into a corner 1265 01:14:14,280 --> 01:14:18,040 Speaker 1: into not accepting it to the very last minute. And 1266 01:14:18,160 --> 01:14:21,080 Speaker 1: I think that was that was kind of tremendously bad 1267 01:14:21,160 --> 01:14:26,040 Speaker 1: because what it did was it crowded out any legitimate analysis, 1268 01:14:27,400 --> 01:14:31,320 Speaker 1: um of what he could do. And it had created 1269 01:14:31,360 --> 01:14:34,160 Speaker 1: this whole kind of weird world of quan On and 1270 01:14:34,160 --> 01:14:38,639 Speaker 1: and and uh and Lynn Wood and and Sydney Powell 1271 01:14:38,680 --> 01:14:41,680 Speaker 1: and all this all this nonsense people waiting for Krakens 1272 01:14:41,760 --> 01:14:44,000 Speaker 1: and and all kinds of things that would sort of 1273 01:14:44,040 --> 01:14:47,400 Speaker 1: show up days X Macina and uh and and save 1274 01:14:47,479 --> 01:14:49,960 Speaker 1: the day. And there was always going to be a 1275 01:14:50,000 --> 01:14:54,799 Speaker 1: big letdown, and it was going to be a big letdown. Um, 1276 01:14:57,400 --> 01:14:59,640 Speaker 1: that big letdown, as I said on Twitter yesterday, it 1277 01:14:59,720 --> 01:15:02,759 Speaker 1: was excusable because you're doing this to your own people. 1278 01:15:02,960 --> 01:15:05,439 Speaker 1: You're supposed to push your enemy into the corner. You're 1279 01:15:05,479 --> 01:15:07,599 Speaker 1: not supposed to push your own people into the corner. 1280 01:15:07,600 --> 01:15:11,320 Speaker 1: You're supposed to at least give them a path that 1281 01:15:11,400 --> 01:15:15,640 Speaker 1: has some chance of success. And and you know, for 1282 01:15:15,680 --> 01:15:17,640 Speaker 1: one reason or another, he didn't do that, and his 1283 01:15:18,120 --> 01:15:21,040 Speaker 1: many of his sort of marquee supporters didn't do that. 1284 01:15:21,720 --> 01:15:27,040 Speaker 1: So the rubberim at the road yesterday, and and you know, 1285 01:15:27,120 --> 01:15:29,760 Speaker 1: and it was ugly. And really he walked into a 1286 01:15:29,880 --> 01:15:33,599 Speaker 1: trap that was set for him by the left and 1287 01:15:33,680 --> 01:15:37,599 Speaker 1: by the mainstream media and sort of with with predictable results. 1288 01:15:37,640 --> 01:15:40,680 Speaker 1: And it breaks my heart because I fear that it's 1289 01:15:40,720 --> 01:15:45,080 Speaker 1: going to tarnish four years of an incredibly successful presidency 1290 01:15:45,600 --> 01:15:48,680 Speaker 1: and um, and now it's going to be used to 1291 01:15:48,720 --> 01:15:54,080 Speaker 1: justify all kinds of insane crackdowns on our free speech 1292 01:15:54,320 --> 01:15:57,599 Speaker 1: which is something that the left has been planning anyway, 1293 01:15:57,640 --> 01:15:59,800 Speaker 1: but now they have the perfect right they're going to say, 1294 01:15:59,800 --> 01:16:03,040 Speaker 1: and you're you're touching on something very important, David, there now, 1295 01:16:03,080 --> 01:16:06,280 Speaker 1: and you've already seen this from the social media companies, 1296 01:16:06,280 --> 01:16:07,960 Speaker 1: and you know, people will be listening this on radio. 1297 01:16:08,040 --> 01:16:10,920 Speaker 1: And I know, not everyone, and particularly folks of a 1298 01:16:10,960 --> 01:16:15,040 Speaker 1: certain you know, a certain you know age, or sometimes 1299 01:16:15,080 --> 01:16:17,920 Speaker 1: a little less likely to really be very active on 1300 01:16:17,960 --> 01:16:24,000 Speaker 1: social media. But those companies are enormously influential and powerful. 1301 01:16:24,000 --> 01:16:28,880 Speaker 1: I mean, they blow the influence and of our media 1302 01:16:28,920 --> 01:16:32,439 Speaker 1: and political conversations from places like you know, ABC News 1303 01:16:32,439 --> 01:16:34,800 Speaker 1: even out of the water. It's not even close. And 1304 01:16:34,880 --> 01:16:38,439 Speaker 1: they're actively suppressing conservatives, and they're coming up with evermore 1305 01:16:38,520 --> 01:16:42,519 Speaker 1: aggressive justifications for it. They're going to start You're going 1306 01:16:42,560 --> 01:16:45,720 Speaker 1: to see that they're gonna try to say that MAGA 1307 01:16:45,920 --> 01:16:48,200 Speaker 1: is a hate symbol. I mean, just just give this time. 1308 01:16:48,240 --> 01:16:52,960 Speaker 1: That's where we're heading. Sure, yeah, yeah, absolutely, And you know, 1309 01:16:53,120 --> 01:16:56,439 Speaker 1: and but for four years, for one reason or another, 1310 01:16:57,400 --> 01:17:01,919 Speaker 1: we were unable to say that, hey, you know, President 1311 01:17:01,920 --> 01:17:04,400 Speaker 1: Trump made a mistake here. He needs to course correct. 1312 01:17:05,160 --> 01:17:07,719 Speaker 1: Anyone who said something like that was deemed a trader 1313 01:17:07,840 --> 01:17:11,800 Speaker 1: and you know, a rhino at Deep State, you know, 1314 01:17:11,880 --> 01:17:16,360 Speaker 1: on and on swamp creature, the whole thing, and and 1315 01:17:16,360 --> 01:17:18,040 Speaker 1: and you know you would see it on Twitter that 1316 01:17:18,120 --> 01:17:20,879 Speaker 1: you know immediately people would would defend him.

For four years, some of us 1319 01:17:29,600 --> 01:17:33,320 Speaker 1: were telling him this was exactly what would happen. I know, 1320 01:17:33,520 --> 01:17:36,800 Speaker 1: I wrote a memo. Many other people did too. We 1321 01:17:36,800 --> 01:17:39,679 Speaker 1: were screaming from the rafters.

I know it was. It's been. 1339 01:18:33,880 --> 01:18:38,000 Speaker 1: It has been very frustrating and and any and I 1340 01:18:38,080 --> 01:18:40,120 Speaker 1: talked about this a lot today. You know, I've been 1341 01:18:40,160 --> 01:18:43,080 Speaker 1: talking about this for well for a long time. Any 1342 01:18:43,320 --> 01:18:45,280 Speaker 1: sense that that you have from a lot of the 1343 01:18:45,280 --> 01:18:49,120 Speaker 1: Trump faithful that you even I tried to like it too. 1344 01:18:49,280 --> 01:18:51,559 Speaker 1: If if you're you know, on a on a sports 1345 01:18:51,560 --> 01:18:54,639 Speaker 1: team and you go into the huddle at halftime when 1346 01:18:54,680 --> 01:18:56,519 Speaker 1: you say, hey, guys, you know, we gotta get it 1347 01:18:56,560 --> 01:18:59,400 Speaker 1: to players out on the wing, or you know, we 1348 01:18:59,400 --> 01:19:02,880 Speaker 1: we gotta get at our receivers, you know, free on 1349 01:19:03,120 --> 01:19:05,960 Speaker 1: when they're running their patterns by doing the following. That 1350 01:19:06,000 --> 01:19:09,639 Speaker 1: doesn't make you a traitor. That makes you somebody who 1351 01:19:09,640 --> 01:19:12,880 Speaker 1: wants your team to win. There has This has been 1352 01:19:12,960 --> 01:19:16,720 Speaker 1: one of the features, unfortunately, of with all the good 1353 01:19:16,760 --> 01:19:18,200 Speaker 1: and you started out with us, and I agree there 1354 01:19:18,280 --> 01:19:20,960 Speaker 1: was a lot of really successful stuff from the Trump presidency, 1355 01:19:21,240 --> 01:19:25,679 Speaker 1: but one of the weaknesses that was really built into 1356 01:19:25,680 --> 01:19:28,519 Speaker 1: this from the beginning was you're not allowed to from 1357 01:19:28,560 --> 01:19:32,400 Speaker 1: within the team criticized to help make the team better. 1358 01:19:32,479 --> 01:19:34,599 Speaker 1: It was always you're an you know, it always went 1359 01:19:34,640 --> 01:19:37,040 Speaker 1: to you're a never trumper. And it's like saying that 1360 01:19:37,040 --> 01:19:40,360 Speaker 1: that Scaramucci is a bad choice for the White House 1361 01:19:40,840 --> 01:19:44,240 Speaker 1: communications director doesn't make you a never trumper. It makes 1362 01:19:44,240 --> 01:19:48,360 Speaker 1: you somebody who sees reality. Right, Yeah, and you can 1363 01:19:48,400 --> 01:19:49,960 Speaker 1: go you can go down the line it was. It's 1364 01:19:50,000 --> 01:19:52,680 Speaker 1: it's such a great example you use of the of 1365 01:19:52,720 --> 01:19:56,479 Speaker 1: the team, you know, because the answer from a lot 1366 01:19:56,560 --> 01:19:59,000 Speaker 1: of these folks, especially from the lynn Woods and the 1367 01:19:59,120 --> 01:20:04,520 Speaker 1: qan On folks, was hey, don't bother yourselves with the strategy. 1368 01:20:05,560 --> 01:20:09,320 Speaker 1: Trust in God and you know, sort of close your eyes, 1369 01:20:09,520 --> 01:20:12,599 Speaker 1: trust the plan. And uh and on January twentieth, he'll 1370 01:20:12,600 --> 01:20:16,519 Speaker 1: be sworn in again. Well, that's a recipe for failure, 1371 01:20:16,760 --> 01:20:18,599 Speaker 1: it's not you know, if you have no way of 1372 01:20:18,640 --> 01:20:22,400 Speaker 1: getting there, then that's a recipe for failure. And it's 1373 01:20:22,400 --> 01:20:26,360 Speaker 1: a recipe for for inaction. And that's the thing, you know, 1374 01:20:26,400 --> 01:20:30,120 Speaker 1: when you tell people that that the that the republic 1375 01:20:30,280 --> 01:20:33,400 Speaker 1: is over because they stole an election, there will never 1376 01:20:33,400 --> 01:20:37,320 Speaker 1: be another fair election and you know, et cetera, et cetera, 1377 01:20:37,720 --> 01:20:42,960 Speaker 1: combined with together with um uh, you know, no real 1378 01:20:43,000 --> 01:20:45,880 Speaker 1: path forward. That's when you get I mean, that's when 1379 01:20:45,880 --> 01:20:48,240 Speaker 1: you confuse your people, and you do and you actually 1380 01:20:48,280 --> 01:20:51,920 Speaker 1: demoralize them. You may fire them up momentarily, but you 1381 01:20:52,040 --> 01:20:55,200 Speaker 1: end up dispiriting them and having them checked out of 1382 01:20:55,200 --> 01:20:58,320 Speaker 1: the whole process, because the rational thing to do would 1383 01:20:58,360 --> 01:21:01,160 Speaker 1: be to say, oh, well, if everything is so screwed, 1384 01:21:01,800 --> 01:21:04,679 Speaker 1: then what are we doing here. I'm just gonna go back. 1385 01:21:04,680 --> 01:21:06,840 Speaker 1: I'm gonna live my life and and I'm going to 1386 01:21:06,920 --> 01:21:09,320 Speaker 1: go back to uh, you know, hanging out with my 1387 01:21:09,400 --> 01:21:13,080 Speaker 1: family and uh and and launching sports and the lack 1388 01:21:13,160 --> 01:21:14,920 Speaker 1: of your point about the lack of we're speaking of 1389 01:21:15,040 --> 01:21:18,960 Speaker 1: David Reeboy.

And that's not just the ability of mail 1404 01:22:06,560 --> 01:22:10,080 Speaker 1: in ballots. It's you know, earlier mail in ballots, it's 1405 01:22:10,160 --> 01:22:14,280 Speaker 1: delayed mail in ballots, it's dropboxes, it's no signature matches. 1406 01:22:14,720 --> 01:22:17,080 Speaker 1: To say, mail in balloting is just the general that's 1407 01:22:17,120 --> 01:22:20,040 Speaker 1: the the umbrella term for all these other things that 1408 01:22:20,080 --> 01:22:23,120 Speaker 1: go into it that of course make fraud easier.

UM you know, I mean that's to me, 1434 01:23:42,280 --> 01:23:46,360 Speaker 1: that's evidence of fraud, UM you know, or the the 1435 01:23:46,400 --> 01:23:49,920 Speaker 1: intent to commit it anyway. UM. But I look, a 1436 01:23:50,000 --> 01:23:53,280 Speaker 1: lot of people on on our side will come back 1437 01:23:53,320 --> 01:23:56,040 Speaker 1: and they'll say, we'll see you know what, you just 1438 01:23:56,080 --> 01:23:59,599 Speaker 1: describe the Democrats. They don't care. They just lie.

I mean, in order to buy 1444 01:24:17,439 --> 01:24:20,839 Speaker 1: into that sort of uh, you know, strategy or tactic, 1445 01:24:21,600 --> 01:24:24,559 Speaker 1: you would have to say that the left and right 1446 01:24:25,240 --> 01:24:28,280 Speaker 1: have um, you know, our mirrors of one another, they 1447 01:24:28,280 --> 01:24:32,320 Speaker 1: have equal power and and uh and and things like that. Unfortunately, 1448 01:24:32,520 --> 01:24:35,920 Speaker 1: we don't have the media. We don't have the ability 1449 01:24:35,960 --> 01:24:38,479 Speaker 1: to come up with a lie and then flog the 1450 01:24:38,560 --> 01:24:42,479 Speaker 1: zone from from Nancy Pelosi all the way down to um, 1451 01:24:42,520 --> 01:24:45,360 Speaker 1: you know to superintended at the you know, at the 1452 01:24:45,400 --> 01:24:51,000 Speaker 1: at the Philadelphia Um uh, you know, it's just some 1453 01:24:51,120 --> 01:24:56,080 Speaker 1: random dog catcher, um Democrat. We don't have the ability 1454 01:24:56,160 --> 01:25:00,400 Speaker 1: to do that, and so the the tactics and atagies 1455 01:25:00,439 --> 01:25:04,000 Speaker 1: that are available to them, unfortunately are not available to us. 1456 01:25:04,520 --> 01:25:07,360 Speaker 1: So what ends up happening is you have Russia Gate 1457 01:25:07,439 --> 01:25:10,960 Speaker 1: on one hand, which is promulgated by you know, the 1458 01:25:11,479 --> 01:25:16,240 Speaker 1: CIA director, the president, you know, the ex president, everyone 1459 01:25:16,439 --> 01:25:20,960 Speaker 1: in the establishment on down government, FBI, CIA, NSA, the 1460 01:25:21,000 --> 01:25:24,639 Speaker 1: whole thing. Um. And then on the other hand, when 1461 01:25:24,680 --> 01:25:27,560 Speaker 1: we have a sort of similar kind of hoax craziness 1462 01:25:27,600 --> 01:25:32,519 Speaker 1: like QAnon, it bubbles up from the bottom, and it 1463 01:25:32,560 --> 01:25:36,120 Speaker 1: bubbles up from the bottom, and it's sort of not unable. UM. 1464 01:25:36,760 --> 01:25:39,840 Speaker 1: It's it's unable to be controlled. And it's sort of 1465 01:25:39,880 --> 01:25:43,200 Speaker 1: different in in nature. Even though you know, both things 1466 01:25:43,200 --> 01:25:48,040 Speaker 1: are absurd, you know, conspiracy theory, nonsense things. They both 1467 01:25:48,080 --> 01:25:52,000 Speaker 1: have kind of different characters. We've only got about a minute, David, 1468 01:25:52,000 --> 01:25:54,479 Speaker 1: but I just want to know what is your give me, 1469 01:25:54,600 --> 01:25:59,400 Speaker 1: give me the case, the case for limited but realistic 1470 01:25:59,400 --> 01:26:02,880 Speaker 1: optimism right now, I think I think there's a lot 1471 01:26:02,920 --> 01:26:06,040 Speaker 1: to be optimistic about. Frankly, um, as long as soon 1472 01:26:06,200 --> 01:26:09,519 Speaker 1: as we as soon as we abandon the idea that 1473 01:26:09,680 --> 01:26:13,080 Speaker 1: we need to keep this game going in terms of 1474 01:26:13,439 --> 01:26:15,519 Speaker 1: you know, we need to care very much about what 1475 01:26:15,560 --> 01:26:19,920 Speaker 1: goes on in Washington, um, you know, etcetera, etcetera, and 1476 01:26:20,120 --> 01:26:22,519 Speaker 1: we sort of check out on the national level and 1477 01:26:22,560 --> 01:26:26,439 Speaker 1: focus really sharply on the local level and also on 1478 01:26:26,479 --> 01:26:30,439 Speaker 1: the sort of for profit level, build businesses. Whatever you do, 1479 01:26:30,520 --> 01:26:35,120 Speaker 1: your listeners, you are all in business doing something you're serving. Um, 1480 01:26:35,280 --> 01:26:39,800 Speaker 1: you're serving a variety of customers. You're selling things. You're you're, you're, 1481 01:26:39,800 --> 01:26:44,320 Speaker 1: you're you know, you're participating in the economy. Okay, figure 1482 01:26:44,360 --> 01:26:46,880 Speaker 1: out how to take what you're doing and apply it 1483 01:26:46,960 --> 01:26:52,000 Speaker 1: to the political war that we're in. Sell to right wingers, 1484 01:26:52,560 --> 01:26:55,439 Speaker 1: sell to people who are conservatives. Create a new product 1485 01:26:55,439 --> 01:26:59,599 Speaker 1: to to to address this particular market. Um, there's going 1486 01:26:59,600 --> 01:27:04,439 Speaker 1: to be a massive opening now to create an alternate 1487 01:27:04,479 --> 01:27:08,000 Speaker 1: economy that will service the you know, seventy three million 1488 01:27:08,040 --> 01:27:12,040 Speaker 1: plus people who voted for Trump and and you know, 1489 01:27:12,120 --> 01:27:15,960 Speaker 1: really who who hate the left and who who don't 1490 01:27:15,960 --> 01:27:24,519 Speaker 1: want to patronize DLM supporting critical race theory, supporting Antifa, supporting, um, 1491 01:27:24,560 --> 01:27:26,760 Speaker 1: you know, kind of democrat economy. Yeah, it's time for 1492 01:27:26,800 --> 01:27:28,720 Speaker 1: us to take take back as much control this as 1493 01:27:29,000 --> 01:27:32,960 Speaker 1: we can and start establishing our own our own platforms, 1494 01:27:33,000 --> 01:27:36,120 Speaker 1: our own culture. Do these things as conservatives, all right, 1495 01:27:36,320 --> 01:27:39,200 Speaker 1: David reeboy, everybody, David, always appreciate your insight, my friend, 1496 01:27:39,200 --> 01:27:44,960 Speaker 1: Thanks so much, thank you. You're in the Freedom Mind. 1497 01:27:45,439 --> 01:27:54,360 Speaker 1: This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast Platforms. We need 1498 01:27:54,840 --> 01:28:00,960 Speaker 1: more places where conservatives are safe to be conservative. And 1499 01:28:01,040 --> 01:28:06,120 Speaker 1: I've been saying this. I'm so happy and honestly proud 1500 01:28:06,240 --> 01:28:09,599 Speaker 1: that Dan Bongino is leading the charge on this. So interesting. 1501 01:28:09,640 --> 01:28:13,600 Speaker 1: I remember when I call for platforms. Uh, some conservative 1502 01:28:13,640 --> 01:28:16,920 Speaker 1: Rush Limball, the Great Rush Limbaugh, said he's absolutely right, 1503 01:28:16,960 --> 01:28:19,519 Speaker 1: read it all on his show, and I said, come on, guys, 1504 01:28:19,520 --> 01:28:21,960 Speaker 1: we got to do this. There was at least one 1505 01:28:22,120 --> 01:28:24,920 Speaker 1: radio host who took it as an opportunity to trash me, 1506 01:28:25,000 --> 01:28:27,240 Speaker 1: because that's a bad idea for I don't know, guys, 1507 01:28:27,439 --> 01:28:30,920 Speaker 1: he's got problems nobody that any of you particularly like. 1508 01:28:31,040 --> 01:28:33,120 Speaker 1: So it doesn't matter. It's not not Rush, glennar Sean. 1509 01:28:34,520 --> 01:28:37,640 Speaker 1: But anyway, I was right, and now everyone seeing it, 1510 01:28:37,680 --> 01:28:39,200 Speaker 1: and now we got to do it. Now we got 1511 01:28:39,200 --> 01:28:44,280 Speaker 1: to build those platforms. And I'm on Rumball, I'm on parlor. 1512 01:28:44,280 --> 01:28:46,800 Speaker 1: I'm talking to people about starting websites. I'm talking to 1513 01:28:46,800 --> 01:28:50,000 Speaker 1: people about building out and get and it's not Remember 1514 01:28:50,040 --> 01:28:53,600 Speaker 1: it's not just the platform, it's the advertisers. It's the ecosystem. 1515 01:28:54,200 --> 01:28:56,600 Speaker 1: We need people that run businesses that are that that 1516 01:28:56,680 --> 01:29:01,120 Speaker 1: share conservative values to advertise on conservative programs. And that's 1517 01:29:01,120 --> 01:29:04,000 Speaker 1: why I love our sponsors because they're great products, but 1518 01:29:04,040 --> 01:29:07,920 Speaker 1: they're also these are really good people who stand with 1519 01:29:08,080 --> 01:29:11,080 Speaker 1: this show and what I'm saying on this show. They're 1520 01:29:11,080 --> 01:29:14,160 Speaker 1: not they're not scared of living in it. Leftists, you're 1521 01:29:14,160 --> 01:29:18,240 Speaker 1: gonna stand an angry email. Right. They are American patriot 1522 01:29:18,360 --> 01:29:21,880 Speaker 1: businessmen and businesswomen.

You want to win the future. This is 1525 01:29:25,360 --> 01:29:29,920 Speaker 1: how we do it. More platforms, more advertiser and that's 1526 01:29:29,960 --> 01:29:32,360 Speaker 1: just for media. I'm talking about out, but it's more businesses. 1527 01:29:33,000 --> 01:29:37,639 Speaker 1: Corporate America across the big corporations are woke, they are left. 1528 01:29:38,240 --> 01:29:42,320 Speaker 1: We have seeded them. We need companies to say either 1529 01:29:42,400 --> 01:29:45,080 Speaker 1: we're gonna we're gonna be a political that's a start, 1530 01:29:45,120 --> 01:29:48,080 Speaker 1: I mean it's not great, or to say we have 1531 01:29:49,040 --> 01:29:52,920 Speaker 1: you know, conservative American values. We believe in you know, God, 1532 01:29:53,000 --> 01:29:56,240 Speaker 1: country and family, all right, and we're gonna support that 1533 01:29:56,320 --> 01:29:59,280 Speaker 1: as as a as a Fortune five hundred company. We 1534 01:29:59,400 --> 01:30:01,880 Speaker 1: need that, friends, We need to win that part of 1535 01:30:01,920 --> 01:30:05,760 Speaker 1: the corporate and culture war.

I don't wear hats really yeah, 1554 01:31:21,280 --> 01:31:23,200 Speaker 1: But the actual rest of the outfit, it kind of 1555 01:31:23,240 --> 01:31:26,360 Speaker 1: looks like rummaging through my closet, which is at a 1556 01:31:26,360 --> 01:31:31,960 Speaker 1: little disconcerting anyway. Dan writes in Uncle Buck Happy New Year. 1557 01:31:32,640 --> 01:31:35,040 Speaker 1: Prior to twenty twenty, I was not very political. My 1558 01:31:35,120 --> 01:31:38,960 Speaker 1: interests are sports and beer. Having followed politics for a 1559 01:31:39,040 --> 01:31:41,320 Speaker 1: year now, it shocks me that as conservatives we have 1560 01:31:41,400 --> 01:31:45,000 Speaker 1: to worry about the left and people supposedly on our side. 1561 01:31:45,520 --> 01:31:48,800 Speaker 1: The left does not seem to grapple with this. In 1562 01:31:48,840 --> 01:31:51,280 Speaker 1: the sports world, this is pretty much the most despicable 1563 01:31:51,320 --> 01:31:55,400 Speaker 1: form of human scum possible. Just ask producer Mark what 1564 01:31:55,520 --> 01:31:58,799 Speaker 1: happens to players who get caught point shaving or throwing games. 1565 01:31:59,200 --> 01:32:01,759 Speaker 1: It speaks the care of people we vote into office. 1566 01:32:01,840 --> 01:32:05,519 Speaker 1: I'm utterly disgusted by some of our GOP teammates. I 1567 01:32:05,560 --> 01:32:07,760 Speaker 1: do not have any solutions or suggestions. This was just 1568 01:32:07,800 --> 01:32:11,040 Speaker 1: an observation. Best wishes for continued success in twenty twenty 1569 01:32:11,040 --> 01:32:13,160 Speaker 1: one and beyond. Ps a little Christmas gift for all 1570 01:32:13,160 --> 01:32:16,080 Speaker 1: the great content, and he sent me a It is 1571 01:32:16,120 --> 01:32:20,640 Speaker 1: my face superimposed on John Candy as Uncle Buck in 1572 01:32:20,680 --> 01:32:26,679 Speaker 1: the beloved cult classic Uncle Buck from the eighties. Can't 1573 01:32:26,680 --> 01:32:29,640 Speaker 1: people start thinking the name Buck is at least the 1574 01:32:29,720 --> 01:32:33,439 Speaker 1: guy from the Horse Whisperer documentary. It's called Buck, the 1575 01:32:33,520 --> 01:32:35,920 Speaker 1: name of the documentary. Can I be compared to that 1576 01:32:35,920 --> 01:32:38,400 Speaker 1: that guy was cool? I don't know. I don't know 1577 01:32:38,439 --> 01:32:41,080 Speaker 1: what you're talking about. So obviously Uncle Buck is more 1578 01:32:41,400 --> 01:32:44,839 Speaker 1: resident way bigger movie. So there was a documentary about 1579 01:32:44,920 --> 01:32:48,160 Speaker 1: if you. If you type in documentary horse and then Buck, 1580 01:32:49,120 --> 01:32:51,559 Speaker 1: it'll come up. And it's a it's about a guy 1581 01:32:52,360 --> 01:33:00,120 Speaker 1: who trains, uh, you know, who trains problem horses and 1582 01:33:00,120 --> 01:33:04,000 Speaker 1: and he's he's the horse whisperer. Basically, it's follows this 1583 01:33:04,040 --> 01:33:08,720 Speaker 1: guy named Branniman, Buck Branniman, who had an abusive childhood 1584 01:33:08,840 --> 01:33:12,360 Speaker 1: and then became phenomenally successful in training horses. He's a 1585 01:33:12,400 --> 01:33:17,040 Speaker 1: real life horse whisperer and essentially working with horses was 1586 01:33:17,080 --> 01:33:20,720 Speaker 1: like a healing process for it. He's a cowboy. He's 1587 01:33:20,720 --> 01:33:24,360 Speaker 1: a cowboy and it's a really good movie. By the way, 1588 01:33:24,400 --> 01:33:25,840 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna say this, I wish it was from 1589 01:33:25,880 --> 01:33:30,280 Speaker 1: twenty eleven, directed by Cindy Meal, and it's the real 1590 01:33:30,280 --> 01:33:35,160 Speaker 1: life horse horse whisper named Buck Brannaman. And I'm just 1591 01:33:35,280 --> 01:33:36,960 Speaker 1: I wish, I wish that would be what people think 1592 01:33:37,000 --> 01:33:39,599 Speaker 1: of a little more than John calthough, as producer Marcus 1593 01:33:39,600 --> 01:33:43,920 Speaker 1: pointed out, John Candy is technically the protagonist and the 1594 01:33:43,920 --> 01:33:47,680 Speaker 1: hero of Uncle Buck. Yeah, and the kids of him, 1595 01:33:47,760 --> 01:33:50,880 Speaker 1: yeah right, yeah, I mean the kids like him. So 1596 01:33:51,000 --> 01:33:53,120 Speaker 1: you know, I'm actually doing Uncle Buck duties this week, 1597 01:33:53,160 --> 01:33:56,320 Speaker 1: and I've got my little nephew, Ryan, little baby Ryan, 1598 01:33:56,400 --> 01:34:00,400 Speaker 1: who's off the charts adorable.

Yes, I've 1602 01:34:09,640 --> 01:34:13,360 Speaker 1: seen the movie. Yeah, exactly exactly. So thank you very 1603 01:34:13,400 --> 01:34:15,920 Speaker 1: much Dan for sending it and sending it in and 1604 01:34:15,920 --> 01:34:17,439 Speaker 1: and yeah, we do have we have a lot of 1605 01:34:17,439 --> 01:34:19,360 Speaker 1: turncoats on our side. We have a lot of people 1606 01:34:19,439 --> 01:34:26,599 Speaker 1: who are um, not particularly uh, not particularly reliable. That's 1607 01:34:26,600 --> 01:34:30,559 Speaker 1: a true thing, unfortunately. So I will continue to do 1608 01:34:30,600 --> 01:34:34,600 Speaker 1: everything I can to, you know, to be a stalwart 1609 01:34:34,680 --> 01:34:37,160 Speaker 1: and to fight for our side with everything I've got, 1610 01:34:37,479 --> 01:34:39,439 Speaker 1: even though you sent me this uncle buck bean, which 1611 01:34:39,439 --> 01:34:41,880 Speaker 1: I'm just kidding. It's funny, I do. I do, it 1612 01:34:42,000 --> 01:34:45,920 Speaker 1: is amusing. I enjoy it, Andy Buck, like you, I 1613 01:34:45,920 --> 01:34:48,000 Speaker 1: spent the better part of my Christmas holiday in Florida 1614 01:34:48,040 --> 01:34:52,200 Speaker 1: and miss it dearly after returning to Lockdown, Minnesota. Shortly 1615 01:34:52,240 --> 01:34:55,120 Speaker 1: after sitting down to a lovely dinner at a restaurant Indoors, 1616 01:34:55,680 --> 01:34:58,559 Speaker 1: two gentlemen in their fifties sat at the table next 1617 01:34:58,560 --> 01:35:02,200 Speaker 1: to us. After clinking glasses of wine, one said to 1618 01:35:02,240 --> 01:35:05,120 Speaker 1: the other. You know, I've lived in San Francisco for 1619 01:35:05,120 --> 01:35:07,800 Speaker 1: the past twenty five years. I've been trying to leave 1620 01:35:07,800 --> 01:35:10,160 Speaker 1: it for the past ten. My wife finally looked at 1621 01:35:10,160 --> 01:35:12,640 Speaker 1: me yesterday and said, we can't live here anymore. We 1622 01:35:12,760 --> 01:35:16,719 Speaker 1: need to move California, New York, Illinois and big cities 1623 01:35:16,760 --> 01:35:20,439 Speaker 1: can continue their trash policies to their demise. Then, Look, 1624 01:35:20,520 --> 01:35:23,759 Speaker 1: this is real. There's there's a major migration. It is happening. 1625 01:35:23,800 --> 01:35:26,439 Speaker 1: This is not just something in conservative media or whatever. 1626 01:35:26,720 --> 01:35:31,760 Speaker 1: There is a major migration of people occurring that they're 1627 01:35:31,800 --> 01:35:35,160 Speaker 1: going away from these very very blue states to redder 1628 01:35:35,320 --> 01:35:40,720 Speaker 1: and or red states. So that's that's where we're at. 1629 01:35:40,760 --> 01:35:44,919 Speaker 1: And you know, Producer Mark might be Producer Mark from 1630 01:35:45,560 --> 01:35:48,920 Speaker 1: Fort Lauderdale within a relatively short period of time here. 1631 01:35:49,000 --> 01:35:52,880 Speaker 1: So there we have sure hopes. Fort lauder is very nice, 1632 01:35:53,080 --> 01:35:57,880 Speaker 1: very nice. I gotta say, Brett buck Uh, we need 1633 01:35:57,920 --> 01:36:00,080 Speaker 1: something good right now that will distract us and I'll 1634 01:36:00,000 --> 01:36:01,800 Speaker 1: allow some time to lick our wounds.

Our shields are a little 1637 01:36:05,960 --> 01:36:09,840 Speaker 1: less high today, Brett, my man, you read my mind. 1638 01:36:09,880 --> 01:36:12,280 Speaker 1: I don't even see this a roll call message until now, 1639 01:36:12,800 --> 01:36:15,160 Speaker 1: and we were talking about it before.

Anyways, Yeah, 1654 01:37:05,680 --> 01:37:07,920 Speaker 1: I'm doing the show. I don't even I haven't released 1655 01:37:07,920 --> 01:37:11,439 Speaker 1: it yet, but one of the most amazing military campaigns 1656 01:37:11,479 --> 01:37:14,320 Speaker 1: in all history. I mean it would be it would 1657 01:37:14,360 --> 01:37:18,080 Speaker 1: it would almost be like, uh, you know, North Korea 1658 01:37:18,160 --> 01:37:21,920 Speaker 1: invading the US with a ground army and actually like 1659 01:37:22,080 --> 01:37:24,519 Speaker 1: beating us on our own territory for a couple of 1660 01:37:24,560 --> 01:37:26,679 Speaker 1: years before we finally were able to turn it around, 1661 01:37:26,720 --> 01:37:28,240 Speaker 1: and you're just like, what, how could they do this? 1662 01:37:28,760 --> 01:37:30,640 Speaker 1: Not not really, because North Korea is far smaller and 1663 01:37:30,680 --> 01:37:32,559 Speaker 1: less powerful than US, but I just mean some foreign 1664 01:37:32,680 --> 01:37:37,200 Speaker 1: entity invading the US, some external country. This is not 1665 01:37:37,320 --> 01:37:40,040 Speaker 1: a civil war, invading the US and and we're the 1666 01:37:40,040 --> 01:37:42,280 Speaker 1: most powerful country in the world and on our own 1667 01:37:42,360 --> 01:37:45,400 Speaker 1: territory they beat our best forces and biggest army over 1668 01:37:45,479 --> 01:37:48,200 Speaker 1: Now can you imagine that? That's what happened in Rome 1669 01:37:48,240 --> 01:37:52,720 Speaker 1: in two eighteen BC for for quite a number of 1670 01:37:52,800 --> 01:37:56,840 Speaker 1: years there after. That's when it started. So that's when 1671 01:37:56,880 --> 01:37:58,880 Speaker 1: I yes, we will absolutely do history stuff. I also 1672 01:37:58,920 --> 01:38:00,960 Speaker 1: want to do more Team Buck hangout stuff.

Thank you, Lewis, Hey, lou Buck. I'm 1682 01:38:37,200 --> 01:38:45,639 Speaker 1: a huge fan. Listening from Amsterdam. Where Amsterdam is that? Oh? Okay? Yeah? 1683 01:38:45,680 --> 01:38:47,640 Speaker 1: Like the I thought I thought he put in the uh. 1684 01:38:47,680 --> 01:38:49,080 Speaker 1: I thought it was like an Amster, you know how 1685 01:38:49,120 --> 01:38:54,400 Speaker 1: there's like, uh, there's like Oxford, Oxford, Alabama, Oxford, Georgia. 1686 01:38:54,439 --> 01:38:56,400 Speaker 1: I forget it. I thought he was giving me a 1687 01:38:56,439 --> 01:38:58,679 Speaker 1: state designation Africa. I was like, is there an Amster? 1688 01:38:58,880 --> 01:39:01,760 Speaker 1: There probably is an Amsterdam in the US. Actually is there? 1689 01:39:02,040 --> 01:39:04,360 Speaker 1: Let's let's let's fact check that there's all these It's 1690 01:39:04,360 --> 01:39:10,720 Speaker 1: probably small. Um so anyway, from Amsterdam v V Amsterdam, 1691 01:39:10,720 --> 01:39:13,080 Speaker 1: there's an Amsterdam, New York. But that is not where 1692 01:39:13,120 --> 01:39:15,560 Speaker 1: he is writing. That's what I see. It said Amsterdam, 1693 01:39:15,720 --> 01:39:16,960 Speaker 1: and and then I looked at I was like, wait 1694 01:39:17,000 --> 01:39:21,160 Speaker 1: and why or no, No Amsterdam like the Netherlands. I'm 1695 01:39:21,200 --> 01:39:24,040 Speaker 1: a US citizen living here for twenty years. My daughter 1696 01:39:24,080 --> 01:39:26,200 Speaker 1: has a chance to attend Fordham Law School for one 1697 01:39:26,280 --> 01:39:29,360 Speaker 1: year through an exchange program at the University of Amsterdam. 1698 01:39:29,400 --> 01:39:31,960 Speaker 1: With that said, and knowing your NYC background, can you 1699 01:39:32,000 --> 01:39:34,040 Speaker 1: tell me how crazy it is with the rising crime 1700 01:39:34,040 --> 01:39:38,960 Speaker 1: in NYC. I'm very concerned. Thanks, So Lewis, first of all, Amsterdam, 1701 01:39:39,000 --> 01:39:41,519 Speaker 1: that sounds great, man, I've heard. I have a very 1702 01:39:41,560 --> 01:39:46,439 Speaker 1: good friend of mine who actually lives full time in Amsterdam, 1703 01:39:47,160 --> 01:39:50,160 Speaker 1: so that's a real thing and I and she loves it. 1704 01:39:50,160 --> 01:39:52,840 Speaker 1: She absolutely loves it. She's been living there for years 1705 01:39:53,120 --> 01:39:55,599 Speaker 1: for Fordham Law School. And my sister is a graduate, 1706 01:39:55,720 --> 01:39:58,240 Speaker 1: my little sister, who's the most wonderful little sister ever. 1707 01:39:58,640 --> 01:40:01,799 Speaker 1: She is a graduate of four M Law School and 1708 01:40:02,200 --> 01:40:06,320 Speaker 1: she liked it. As for New York City, from a 1709 01:40:06,439 --> 01:40:11,800 Speaker 1: safety perspective, look, it's getting worse here, but it's still 1710 01:40:11,840 --> 01:40:17,640 Speaker 1: pretty safe. The violent crime is in certain areas of 1711 01:40:17,640 --> 01:40:20,160 Speaker 1: the city that are not near the Fordham Law schools, 1712 01:40:20,200 --> 01:40:22,200 Speaker 1: right in midtown. Fordham Law School is actually very close 1713 01:40:22,240 --> 01:40:24,640 Speaker 1: to where I live, so I can tell you that 1714 01:40:24,680 --> 01:40:26,800 Speaker 1: if she goes to Fordham Law School, she'll be safe there. 1715 01:40:27,280 --> 01:40:31,160 Speaker 1: But there's definitely a really you feel the increase in 1716 01:40:31,200 --> 01:40:34,400 Speaker 1: the quality of life stuff here. The quality of life crimes. 1717 01:40:34,720 --> 01:40:37,519 Speaker 1: The so called squeegee men are back, and they common 1718 01:40:37,560 --> 01:40:40,960 Speaker 1: They schmear stuff on your windshield and they demand money. 1719 01:40:41,360 --> 01:40:44,400 Speaker 1: There's a lot more. There's public urination, there's open air, 1720 01:40:45,080 --> 01:40:49,879 Speaker 1: broad daylight drug usage. There's a lot of aggressive homeless 1721 01:40:50,000 --> 01:40:54,439 Speaker 1: and vagrants going around the city panhandling, but not in 1722 01:40:54,479 --> 01:40:56,479 Speaker 1: a nice way, you know, kind of demanding money. I 1723 01:40:56,520 --> 01:40:59,320 Speaker 1: mean that that is all on the rise here, but 1724 01:40:59,479 --> 01:41:01,360 Speaker 1: I have to tell you New York is still on 1725 01:41:01,400 --> 01:41:03,200 Speaker 1: the numbers. Bear this out. New York is still a 1726 01:41:03,439 --> 01:41:07,120 Speaker 1: safe large city overall. It's actually a lot safer than 1727 01:41:07,160 --> 01:41:09,440 Speaker 1: other cities that you don't think of as being necessarily 1728 01:41:09,760 --> 01:41:11,720 Speaker 1: high crime. I mean, New York, for example, is much 1729 01:41:11,760 --> 01:41:14,240 Speaker 1: safer than Washington, d C. I'll tell you that New 1730 01:41:14,280 --> 01:41:17,559 Speaker 1: York is safer, having lived in both places. Safer than 1731 01:41:17,960 --> 01:41:22,120 Speaker 1: New Orleans, by the certainly safer than Chicago. I mean so, 1732 01:41:22,120 --> 01:41:24,920 Speaker 1: so I would not I would not avoid New York 1733 01:41:25,000 --> 01:41:29,800 Speaker 1: City for school purposes, for safety reasons, for political reasons, 1734 01:41:29,840 --> 01:41:31,799 Speaker 1: that's a whole other thing. And I'll tell you Fordham 1735 01:41:31,880 --> 01:41:38,120 Speaker 1: Law School is very liberal. Fordham Law schools of very 1736 01:41:38,200 --> 01:41:43,720 Speaker 1: liberal all law schools. Now, law schools have become indoctrination 1737 01:41:43,920 --> 01:41:47,240 Speaker 1: factories for the left. That has really been happening. That's 1738 01:41:47,240 --> 01:41:52,360 Speaker 1: a very real phenomenon. So be aware of that that 1739 01:41:52,400 --> 01:41:56,640 Speaker 1: your your daughter is almost certainly going to get a 1740 01:41:57,360 --> 01:41:59,840 Speaker 1: They're going to attempt to brainwash her into making her 1741 01:42:00,280 --> 01:42:04,599 Speaker 1: not just a lawyer, but a progressive activist lawyer. I mean, 1742 01:42:04,640 --> 01:42:07,240 Speaker 1: Fordham Law School during the BLM thing, was sending out, 1743 01:42:07,760 --> 01:42:11,360 Speaker 1: you know, notices that are essentially all in line with BLM, 1744 01:42:11,400 --> 01:42:13,080 Speaker 1: you know, and how the cops are the bad guys. 1745 01:42:13,080 --> 01:42:17,160 Speaker 1: I'm saying, you're creating future prosecutors and judges here and 1746 01:42:17,360 --> 01:42:21,519 Speaker 1: the cops are the bad guys. Oh yeah, Oh that 1747 01:42:21,640 --> 01:42:24,000 Speaker 1: was a real thing, and it's true at Harvard Law School, 1748 01:42:24,080 --> 01:42:26,519 Speaker 1: Yale Law School, you'll find it. But Fordam is a 1749 01:42:26,640 --> 01:42:29,680 Speaker 1: very reputable place. And my little sister's done well. She's 1750 01:42:29,680 --> 01:42:32,160 Speaker 1: got a great job coming out of there. So and look, 1751 01:42:32,200 --> 01:42:35,000 Speaker 1: I love New York. I I just wish it wasn't 1752 01:42:35,040 --> 01:42:37,920 Speaker 1: being ruined by libs, you know, and then it is. 1753 01:42:38,000 --> 01:42:42,120 Speaker 1: So that's where I am on that Michael shield Tie 1754 01:42:42,160 --> 01:42:45,320 Speaker 1: advanced forward buck. I feel Trump failed big time in 1755 01:42:45,400 --> 01:42:48,320 Speaker 1: his promise to drain the swamp. Though Trump failed in 1756 01:42:48,400 --> 01:42:50,479 Speaker 1: his goal, he certainly got the swamp and all of 1757 01:42:50,479 --> 01:42:54,320 Speaker 1: its creatures to expose themselves as well the interrelationship of 1758 01:42:54,360 --> 01:42:57,960 Speaker 1: their motives and personal gratifications. I predict that Trump and 1759 01:42:57,960 --> 01:43:00,280 Speaker 1: his family will continue to be leaders for this country, 1760 01:43:00,320 --> 01:43:02,960 Speaker 1: and unlike what happened with the Tea Party movement, instead 1761 01:43:02,960 --> 01:43:04,720 Speaker 1: of doing what they want and going away, we all 1762 01:43:04,760 --> 01:43:06,840 Speaker 1: need to continue the fight and offer our support to 1763 01:43:06,920 --> 01:43:09,599 Speaker 1: others on a personal level to make sure that money 1764 01:43:09,680 --> 01:43:15,800 Speaker 1: remains with a just cause. You know, Michael, I'm wondering. 1765 01:43:15,800 --> 01:43:19,720 Speaker 1: I'm kind of curious to see what the appetite is 1766 01:43:19,800 --> 01:43:22,720 Speaker 1: for this audience to have that. You know, I don't 1767 01:43:22,720 --> 01:43:25,000 Speaker 1: want to do it too soon, right I don't want 1768 01:43:25,000 --> 01:43:29,080 Speaker 1: to get into what need what we need to continue 1769 01:43:29,120 --> 01:43:32,200 Speaker 1: the work on and where Trump did not hit the 1770 01:43:32,280 --> 01:43:37,519 Speaker 1: mark right now. We're processing right now and I've done 1771 01:43:37,520 --> 01:43:38,840 Speaker 1: a little bit of that, but I don't want to 1772 01:43:38,840 --> 01:43:40,680 Speaker 1: dive too deep into it. But we are going to 1773 01:43:40,760 --> 01:43:44,479 Speaker 1: need to do that, and we need to understand. Look, 1774 01:43:44,520 --> 01:43:46,800 Speaker 1: we have a president here who didn't didn't get a 1775 01:43:46,840 --> 01:43:50,400 Speaker 1: second term. We have to look at why. Okay, it's 1776 01:43:50,640 --> 01:43:53,360 Speaker 1: very tough to be at an incumbent president. That is 1777 01:43:53,360 --> 01:43:56,679 Speaker 1: what has happened. Why did that happen, and every sense 1778 01:43:56,720 --> 01:43:59,960 Speaker 1: from election fraud all the way down to Trump promises 1779 01:44:00,360 --> 01:44:03,439 Speaker 1: and what policies were instituted and everything else. So, Michael, 1780 01:44:03,439 --> 01:44:05,559 Speaker 1: that's gonna be something we do here on the show. 1781 01:44:05,640 --> 01:44:07,720 Speaker 1: And I do think that the Trump family is going 1782 01:44:07,760 --> 01:44:09,920 Speaker 1: to continue to be a prominent voice in our politics. 1783 01:44:09,960 --> 01:44:16,160 Speaker 1: But we'll see how prominent going forward. You're in the 1784 01:44:16,280 --> 01:44:23,439 Speaker 1: Freedom Hunt. This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast. Buck, 1785 01:44:23,520 --> 01:44:25,840 Speaker 1: I turned on Tucker last night just in time to 1786 01:44:25,880 --> 01:44:28,280 Speaker 1: catch you. Great job. Now, I want to make the 1787 01:44:28,320 --> 01:44:30,240 Speaker 1: point that even if we would have won those two 1788 01:44:30,280 --> 01:44:33,160 Speaker 1: Senate seats, that there are enough rhinos in this Sedate 1789 01:44:33,360 --> 01:44:35,800 Speaker 1: that would have allowed the Democrat to get a lot 1790 01:44:35,840 --> 01:44:39,599 Speaker 1: of their agenda through even with the GOP majority, just 1791 01:44:39,680 --> 01:44:42,439 Speaker 1: the same way the majority House in twenty seventeen and 1792 01:44:42,479 --> 01:44:45,400 Speaker 1: twenty eighteen allowed the minority Democrats to control so much. 1793 01:44:45,760 --> 01:44:47,679 Speaker 1: While it would have been nice to have a GOP 1794 01:44:47,880 --> 01:44:51,400 Speaker 1: majority leadership, it would have only gone so far. Best 1795 01:44:51,400 --> 01:44:54,400 Speaker 1: case scenario, we would have just again been putting off 1796 01:44:54,400 --> 01:44:56,320 Speaker 1: the inevitable. It was only a matter of time before 1797 01:44:56,320 --> 01:45:02,160 Speaker 1: the Democrats took full control of the federal government again. Well, John, 1798 01:45:02,240 --> 01:45:03,800 Speaker 1: first of all, thank you for the kind words about 1799 01:45:03,800 --> 01:45:06,200 Speaker 1: my Tucker appearance appearance, and it was very nice that, 1800 01:45:07,040 --> 01:45:09,960 Speaker 1: you know, Tucker's show on such a big news night 1801 01:45:10,160 --> 01:45:12,479 Speaker 1: to put me on as one of their first three 1802 01:45:12,560 --> 01:45:16,400 Speaker 1: or four guests. Um, it's I really appreciate that Tucker's 1803 01:45:16,439 --> 01:45:19,880 Speaker 1: Show holds me in that kind of regard. And I 1804 01:45:19,880 --> 01:45:21,599 Speaker 1: think that I said exactly what I needed to say 1805 01:45:21,720 --> 01:45:23,760 Speaker 1: last night. You know, people can agree or disagree, but 1806 01:45:23,840 --> 01:45:26,920 Speaker 1: I was putting it all out there. As for what 1807 01:45:26,920 --> 01:45:28,840 Speaker 1: would have happened if we had a GEOP majority in 1808 01:45:28,840 --> 01:45:33,280 Speaker 1: the Senate, maybe I don't know. They would have broken 1809 01:45:33,520 --> 01:45:36,240 Speaker 1: with the GOP. I mean you're talking about like Collins 1810 01:45:36,360 --> 01:45:41,000 Speaker 1: and Uh, you know, some of these week week Republican types. 1811 01:45:41,760 --> 01:45:43,799 Speaker 1: You know, I would they have broken with the GOP 1812 01:45:43,880 --> 01:45:46,760 Speaker 1: on some of these core issues, you know, I don't know. 1813 01:45:46,840 --> 01:45:48,760 Speaker 1: I don't think. I don't think so, but yeah they 1814 01:45:49,000 --> 01:45:50,880 Speaker 1: would have. You can't count on them for the really 1815 01:45:50,880 --> 01:45:53,840 Speaker 1: tough stuff, that's for sure, But at least we would 1816 01:45:53,840 --> 01:45:57,000 Speaker 1: have had a real clear block. I mean, friends were 1817 01:45:57,479 --> 01:45:59,519 Speaker 1: you know, shields high hold the line. This is what 1818 01:45:59,520 --> 01:46:01,920 Speaker 1: I'm always saying. We're gonna have to do that now 1819 01:46:01,960 --> 01:46:04,519 Speaker 1: going forward. I mean they're gonna try to. They're gonna 1820 01:46:04,560 --> 01:46:06,320 Speaker 1: get very The Democrats for the left are gonna get 1821 01:46:06,360 --> 01:46:11,719 Speaker 1: very aggressive with policies that are absolutely, we obstinately oppose, 1822 01:46:12,560 --> 01:46:18,040 Speaker 1: and we, with everything we've got, want to prevent from 1823 01:46:18,040 --> 01:46:21,719 Speaker 1: becoming a reality. Adam Buck, Now that cheating is a buck, 1824 01:46:21,880 --> 01:46:24,680 Speaker 1: Now that cheating is the norm, why bothers showing up 1825 01:46:24,680 --> 01:46:26,080 Speaker 1: at all?
