1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:04,160 Speaker 1: Welcome in. Second hour of Clay and Buck kicks off 2 00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:07,880 Speaker 1: right now, and a few things to dive into this hour. 3 00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:13,800 Speaker 1: One off the top here the auto pen controversy with 4 00:00:14,720 --> 00:00:19,160 Speaker 1: Joe Biden for anyone who and I don't really understand 5 00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:22,440 Speaker 1: this thinking because I believe that we, for example here 6 00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:25,079 Speaker 1: spend a lot of time on the Trump agenda and 7 00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:26,840 Speaker 1: what's going on day in and day out. We talk 8 00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:29,880 Speaker 1: about immigration pretty much every day, the Big Beautiful Bill 9 00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:34,720 Speaker 1: pretty much every day, Trump economy constantly, right so, and 10 00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:39,280 Speaker 1: then also overseas negotiations to end the Russia Ukraine war, 11 00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:41,320 Speaker 1: and support for Israel and the war against some maas 12 00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:44,120 Speaker 1: right work. The things Trump is doing, we're looking at it. 13 00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:48,600 Speaker 1: It's not a what about ism feeling right now where 14 00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:50,320 Speaker 1: we're looking at the Trump were looking at the Biden 15 00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:53,000 Speaker 1: administration saying, well, look what they did, Look what they did. No, 16 00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:57,760 Speaker 1: but there are some aspects of this that need to 17 00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:01,600 Speaker 1: be looked at, because there's still a live issue, if 18 00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:05,039 Speaker 1: you will it. One of them is given that we 19 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:10,840 Speaker 1: now have more knowledge than ever I should say, further proof. 20 00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 1: We didn't need it. We already knew, but we have 21 00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:16,160 Speaker 1: further proof than we ever have had before. That Joe 22 00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:20,319 Speaker 1: Biden was not of sound mind when he was president, 23 00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:25,160 Speaker 1: certainly for two or three of the four years. And 24 00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:27,120 Speaker 1: I think you could argue for the whole thing. I 25 00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:29,760 Speaker 1: thought the whole thing. In fact, I got wrong who 26 00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:32,480 Speaker 1: the Democrat nominee would be when I was doing my 27 00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:39,640 Speaker 1: solo Buck Sexton show in twenty twenty nineteen, because my 28 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:43,039 Speaker 1: assumption was, it can't be Biden. That guy's got scrambled 29 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:47,120 Speaker 1: eggs for brains. That everyone knows that. It didn't seem possible. 30 00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:49,240 Speaker 1: It didn't seem possible to me. It didn't seem plausible 31 00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:53,040 Speaker 1: that they would be able to mobilize the Democrats around 32 00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:58,040 Speaker 1: somebody that so clearly had dementia and was so visibly 33 00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:01,720 Speaker 1: frail and too old for the job that they it 34 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:03,800 Speaker 1: came back to bite them. But they did manage to 35 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:07,040 Speaker 1: pull it off in twenty twenty, to my surprise. Well, 36 00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:09,880 Speaker 1: now they all admit, of course that it was a scam. 37 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:12,960 Speaker 1: It was a sham, it was a lie. Joe Biden 38 00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:15,920 Speaker 1: didn't know what was going on, and behind closed doors 39 00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:19,720 Speaker 1: there were people who were doing more than they certainly 40 00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:24,960 Speaker 1: should have been doing, and perhaps more than they lawfully 41 00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:28,040 Speaker 1: had a right to do. In the name of the president, 42 00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:32,960 Speaker 1: which is a big deal. You're not allowed to have 43 00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 1: people pretending to be the president. Look, there's a vice president, 44 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:40,880 Speaker 1: there's a chain of succession, and there's the twenty fifth Amendment. 45 00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:44,200 Speaker 1: But Democrats just wanted to cling on to power as 46 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:47,560 Speaker 1: it was and not have to face the reality of 47 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:50,880 Speaker 1: what they had done and the fraud that they had 48 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:54,800 Speaker 1: perpetrated against the American people. So they got all deep 49 00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 1: into this. Right, what a tangled web we weave. And 50 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 1: here is another aspect of well, actually, let me do this. 51 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:10,120 Speaker 1: We had mister Peter Deucy. Peter Deucy was talking about 52 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 1: the Biden pardon signatures. I wanted to get into the 53 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 1: pardons here, because if a president has the power, as 54 00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:21,880 Speaker 1: we believe he does, to just pardon anyone he chooses to, 55 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:25,600 Speaker 1: it is then absolutely essential that we are sure that 56 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 1: it is the president who is making that decision. The 57 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:34,240 Speaker 1: power of pardon cannot be something that is in the 58 00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 1: hands of other officials. So if a president does not know, 59 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:43,360 Speaker 1: for example, and has not made the decision to pardon someone, 60 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:49,119 Speaker 1: that person cannot be considered to have been parted over 61 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 1: At Fox it is Peter Doucy spoke about this and 62 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:55,920 Speaker 1: asked President Trump about the auto pen signatures on some 63 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:59,920 Speaker 1: of these pardons. This has cut one play it minute. 64 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:05,200 Speaker 2: Biden pardons, the big ones, Biden siblings, Fauci Canary, sixth 65 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:08,120 Speaker 2: Committee Right, Most of the big ones had the same, 66 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:12,120 Speaker 2: very neat signature. We would expect that probably to be. 67 00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 3: The auto pen. 68 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:17,440 Speaker 1: There is one that looks different. It looks authentic. 69 00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 2: In fact, if you look at the last name, it 70 00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:21,120 Speaker 2: almost looks like the President was having a hard time 71 00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 2: spelling his last name. There is this White House of 72 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 2: the opinion that the only pardon that would count is 73 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 2: one that the presidents signed himself. 74 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:32,839 Speaker 4: Very interesting props. If you want to bring them to 75 00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 4: my office later so I can take a closer look, 76 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:38,359 Speaker 4: I would like to do that. The President is making 77 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 4: a good point when he discusses the usage of the autopen. 78 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 4: Who was running the country for the past four years. 79 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 4: Perhaps those documents were signed with the autopen. Something that 80 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:50,880 Speaker 4: this I believe the Department of Justice is looking into. 81 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:53,360 Speaker 4: As you saw Ed Martin made an announcement at the Department 82 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:56,640 Speaker 4: of Justice this morning to launch an investigation because the 83 00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 4: American people deserve answers. 84 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:03,800 Speaker 1: If you want to know what Trump thinks about this. Uh, 85 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:08,840 Speaker 1: he has been very clear, he says, with the this 86 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:12,600 Speaker 1: is so trump man, He's the best. We're gonna politics 87 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:14,320 Speaker 1: is not going to be as interesting when Trump is 88 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:17,640 Speaker 1: not president. We're about to be president. I'm warning you 89 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:19,440 Speaker 1: all now, I want to get you ready for that. 90 00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:22,039 Speaker 1: If we're still gonna have great shows. Unfortunately, we got 91 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:24,039 Speaker 1: Trump for four years here, so we got a while. 92 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:26,640 Speaker 1: But get you know, it's even if we have a 93 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:30,880 Speaker 1: good Republican administration going forward, we are never going to 94 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:35,599 Speaker 1: have as engrossing and entertaining a Republican president as Donald Trump. 95 00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:37,960 Speaker 1: You you know it, and I know it. It's just 96 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:42,159 Speaker 1: it's obvious. Okay, this guy's okay here. It is on 97 00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:46,239 Speaker 1: truth Social, he writes, with the exception of the rigged 98 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:50,479 Speaker 1: presidential election of twenty twenty, the auto pen is the 99 00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:56,920 Speaker 1: biggest political scandal in American history. Okay, that was I 100 00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:00,880 Speaker 1: think that was earlier today actually, whereas recent whatever it 101 00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:04,160 Speaker 1: was clear it was recently put out on truth Social 102 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:09,279 Speaker 1: and all caps of course, in case you wanted to 103 00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:11,680 Speaker 1: know whether he thinks this is an all cap situation, Oh, 104 00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 1: it is biggest political scandal in American history. Now, I 105 00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 1: think that the Biden cover up in the dementia hiding 106 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:19,600 Speaker 1: was the biggest scandal. I would agree with that. The 107 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:23,720 Speaker 1: auto pen that remains to be seen whether or not 108 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:26,359 Speaker 1: Biden knew. Now, this is tough. How would you prove 109 00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:30,760 Speaker 1: whether he knew or not? And then you also get 110 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 1: to the same way. You could have somebody who is 111 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:36,120 Speaker 1: not fit to stand trial because they are not of 112 00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:39,720 Speaker 1: sound mind. Right, that's a very high bar. By the way, 113 00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 1: it's pleading insanity is from my understanding, if you're on 114 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:46,560 Speaker 1: a defense team, is one of the hardest. Guy's got 115 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 1: to be really crazy, as in not able to know 116 00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:53,920 Speaker 1: right from wrong level of crazy. But if somebody has 117 00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:59,240 Speaker 1: really severe sinility. Let's remember there was the investigation of 118 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:05,240 Speaker 1: Biden's hands of the classified documents, which the investigator, the 119 00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 1: head investigator is a federal prosecutor, said, well, we can't 120 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 1: think anyone's going to prosecute this guy because he'll just 121 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:15,240 Speaker 1: come across as a forgetful and kindly old man who 122 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:19,000 Speaker 1: clearly doesn't remember stuff, which is a polite way of 123 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:23,720 Speaker 1: saying not really of sound mind to stand trial, not 124 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:28,960 Speaker 1: really of the ability to be able to answer questions 125 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:33,040 Speaker 1: and even be held accountable for what he has done here. Well, 126 00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:36,160 Speaker 1: if that is true, and we know that they accepted 127 00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:42,800 Speaker 1: that as true at the time because it was essentially 128 00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:45,960 Speaker 1: treated as exculpatory for Biden. They just said, oh yeah, see, 129 00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:49,080 Speaker 1: no problem with the classified stuff that Biden has because 130 00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:51,400 Speaker 1: he's just sort of too old and confused, and you know, 131 00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:54,560 Speaker 1: move along, people, move along. Well, if he's too old 132 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 1: and confused to be held accountable for the mishandling of 133 00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:05,560 Speaker 1: classified information, how can he be in a position intellectually 134 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:09,880 Speaker 1: to know who he is pardoning and whether or not 135 00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 1: this person is someone that he actually wishes to use 136 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:17,840 Speaker 1: that incredibly broad power that only presidents have of pardon. 137 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:21,200 Speaker 1: You know, now you start to see hold on this. 138 00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:24,160 Speaker 1: This is a this could be an issue. It's not 139 00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:28,480 Speaker 1: only did Biden know, it's when Biden supposedly knew. Was 140 00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:33,720 Speaker 1: he even capable of being in a mental state where 141 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:40,000 Speaker 1: knowing for him was possible? I don't know. I don't know. 142 00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:44,680 Speaker 1: It's not an easy question to answer, and that raises 143 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:47,720 Speaker 1: some issues because, oh, who are some of the people 144 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 1: who got pardoned. 145 00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 5: Doctor Fauci In the waiting hours of the Biden administration. 146 00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:59,840 Speaker 5: You could just imagine a little fouch calling in to 147 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:06,680 Speaker 5: one of his masked henchmen, actually preferably double masked in 148 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:11,960 Speaker 5: the office, and making sure that there is a pardon 149 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:17,080 Speaker 5: for him, so that whatever shenanigans in the name of 150 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 5: mitigation he engaged in with the tyranny of the COVID madness. 151 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:29,240 Speaker 1: He would not be held responsible. Fauci got a full 152 00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:35,120 Speaker 1: and unconditional pardon from Biden. Biden's family got a full 153 00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:40,079 Speaker 1: and unconditional pardon from Biden, which remember didn't just didn't 154 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 1: even cover named conduct. Biden didn't even feel the need 155 00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 1: to say for the following, you know, for the following reasons, 156 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:56,400 Speaker 1: or the following things, or the following areas of conduct, anything, 157 00:09:56,920 --> 00:10:00,600 Speaker 1: anything done, we are to believe is now outside at 158 00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 1: least in federal law, outside the realm of federal law 159 00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:07,839 Speaker 1: to take accountability against any of Biden's individuals. The Biden 160 00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:09,360 Speaker 1: crime family was a real thing. As we know. It 161 00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:14,960 Speaker 1: was all graft. It was all corruption, payoffs, bribes, Hunter's paintings. 162 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:17,320 Speaker 1: Do you think Hunter's paintings are selling for half a 163 00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:21,080 Speaker 1: million dollars of painting anymore? What happened? He just lost 164 00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:25,920 Speaker 1: his muse no more, the creative genius that he had 165 00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:30,120 Speaker 1: been we saw the same thing with the Clintons. I 166 00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:33,439 Speaker 1: thought the Clintons were running a global charity. Where did 167 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 1: all that charitable money go? Well, as soon as Hillary 168 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:39,840 Speaker 1: lost the election, the Clinton Global Initiative collapses. No one 169 00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:42,839 Speaker 1: wants to give them money. That's so strange because now 170 00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:46,360 Speaker 1: the Clintons could have been in a position to devote 171 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:50,160 Speaker 1: even more of their energy and time to the causes 172 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:53,600 Speaker 1: that they pretended to care about, to create a massive 173 00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:57,080 Speaker 1: slush fund so they could fly private and engage in 174 00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:02,640 Speaker 1: massive corruption in plain sight. Right, So we've seen this 175 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:06,000 Speaker 1: play out before. Do I think it is likely that 176 00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:11,640 Speaker 1: any of these pardons will be overturned officially? Probably not? 177 00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:15,360 Speaker 1: Probably not, And it's because of It's not because they 178 00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:20,040 Speaker 1: shouldn't be. I believe it is the challenges to get 179 00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:22,679 Speaker 1: to the level of proof needed to show that Biden, 180 00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:26,040 Speaker 1: that Biden did not know, and that somebody else. But 181 00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:28,160 Speaker 1: maybe they get to that level of proof. I don't know, 182 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:32,800 Speaker 1: it is possible. But what a mess of a White House, 183 00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 1: and honestly, what a tragedy. The whole thing was four 184 00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:43,160 Speaker 1: years of damage done to American institutions, and none more 185 00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:47,640 Speaker 1: so really than the presidency itself. If Democrats could all 186 00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:50,000 Speaker 1: look at each other and look at us and lie 187 00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:53,600 Speaker 1: about the baseline capability of a human being to do 188 00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:56,959 Speaker 1: the job of president of the United States. They are 189 00:11:57,000 --> 00:12:00,760 Speaker 1: capable of doing the same thing and lie in the 190 00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:04,920 Speaker 1: most obvious and blatant way about anything as long as 191 00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:09,880 Speaker 1: it keeps them in power. The only limit to what 192 00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:12,880 Speaker 1: they will lie about is is this effective for keeping 193 00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:15,880 Speaker 1: us in power? The answer is yes, they will do it. 194 00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:19,240 Speaker 1: And that is a sad place for the country to be. 195 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:22,280 Speaker 1: And it is the reason that so many have lost 196 00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:27,880 Speaker 1: faith in the Democrat Party, including Democrats, because they have 197 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:30,679 Speaker 1: no principles that they stand for. There are some who 198 00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:33,760 Speaker 1: just want the raw exercise of power. There are some 199 00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:36,360 Speaker 1: who just want the street rabble to gather around them 200 00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:38,960 Speaker 1: and let them get away with what they want. Fine, 201 00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:42,400 Speaker 1: plenty of Democrats fall into that category. But for any 202 00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:45,680 Speaker 1: of them who believe that there was something bigger, something 203 00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:51,000 Speaker 1: more important, that the DNC and the Democrats calling the 204 00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:54,000 Speaker 1: shots truly believe in, I think they have been disabused 205 00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:57,520 Speaker 1: of that notion all right. Outside of a pure Talks 206 00:12:57,559 --> 00:12:59,600 Speaker 1: company headquarters, one of the first things you'll see is 207 00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:03,160 Speaker 1: a American flag, So it's no surprise that a company 208 00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:05,640 Speaker 1: run by a US military veteran is choosing to thank 209 00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:08,520 Speaker 1: a thousand of our veterans for their service with a 210 00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:11,160 Speaker 1: gift of their own American flag.

If 237 00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:39,520 Speaker 1: I want to listen to some pop music, which apparently 238 00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:40,920 Speaker 1: I don't do very much because I can't remember what 239 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:42,640 Speaker 1: it's called. But I'm just theoretically, if I wanted to 240 00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:47,160 Speaker 1: listen to some some pop music, perhaps some country. Actually 241 00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:48,960 Speaker 1: like E d M, which I know is a lot 242 00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:50,440 Speaker 1: of you.

All the school bus drivers out there, Okay, 248 00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 6: so here we are. I never got my Rush Limbaugh 249 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:15,360 Speaker 6: gold watch and our phone. I'm sorry phone, and what 250 00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:19,080 Speaker 6: I was thinking, maybe you should give away Trump watches 251 00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:22,880 Speaker 6: and I'll take orange. Now. The real thing I called 252 00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:25,280 Speaker 6: for was back in the first hour, you were talking 253 00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:27,560 Speaker 6: about ICE agents wearing masks. 254 00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:29,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, and all the. 255 00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:33,360 Speaker 6: Other Antifa and Black Lives Matter and all that. Whenever 256 00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:36,840 Speaker 6: they showed up to cause their destructions, they all wore masks. 257 00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:38,560 Speaker 6: That's really all I wanted to say. 258 00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:41,640 Speaker 1: Okay, thank you. Yeah, I mean they're not law enforcement officers, 259 00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:43,760 Speaker 1: which is what the Democrats would say, But I will 260 00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:46,160 Speaker 1: point out that they certainly believe that people should be 261 00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:50,320 Speaker 1: able to rally publicly and not have their identity shown. 262 00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:53,360 Speaker 1: And I actually disagree with that. There are plenty of 263 00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:56,240 Speaker 1: this is this is something that got forgotten very quickly 264 00:15:56,280 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 1: during COVID. There are a lot of jurisdictions where it 265 00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:03,120 Speaker 1: was stat a local statute that you could not have 266 00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:07,400 Speaker 1: your face covered unless you're engaged in construction or you know, 267 00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:09,680 Speaker 1: there's some professional need for right. I mean, you don't 268 00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:12,640 Speaker 1: need people inhaling sawdust all day, but you couldn't just 269 00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:15,520 Speaker 1: walk around masked up. I completely agree with that. I 270 00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:18,840 Speaker 1: think being able to see people's faces is generally and 271 00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:21,760 Speaker 1: for the public important, especially in the era of cameras 272 00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:25,160 Speaker 1: everywhere in facial recognition. I also think that for law 273 00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:27,880 Speaker 1: enforcement purposes. You know a lot of people, if you're 274 00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:32,680 Speaker 1: active special forces, if your active duty special operations, military, 275 00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:36,120 Speaker 1: they don't want their photos out there. And that's why 276 00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:37,800 Speaker 1: you have a lot of friends of mine who are 277 00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:40,360 Speaker 1: former seals, for example, they'll post a photo of themselves 278 00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:42,880 Speaker 1: they're out and they want their public with it. That's fine. 279 00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:44,960 Speaker 1: But if they've got you know, if they've got former 280 00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:48,400 Speaker 1: brothers and the teams who are still in, they obscure 281 00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:52,400 Speaker 1: their faces, right. That's for a reason, Kevin in Western 282 00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:53,880 Speaker 1: New York. What's going on, Kevin. 283 00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:58,080 Speaker 3: The Times? A lot of these Democrats you're having with 284 00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 3: this idea of what all these immigrants in is. We 285 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:03,400 Speaker 3: all know they want them to hear for votes, They 286 00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:06,639 Speaker 3: want to give them citizenship they can vote, but most 287 00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:10,200 Speaker 3: of them do not want to be citizens because as 288 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:13,680 Speaker 3: soon as they get that valid Social Security number, they 289 00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:14,720 Speaker 3: got to pay the taxes. 290 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:18,200 Speaker 1: Well yeah, and also, thank you a good point here. 291 00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:20,439 Speaker 1: A lot of them would actually get a tax benefit, 292 00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:22,000 Speaker 1: believe it or not. They basically be paid by the 293 00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:24,200 Speaker 1: federal governm when they file their taxes. But the problem 294 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:27,040 Speaker 1: for their employer is now the employer has to pay 295 00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:31,000 Speaker 1: them properly, and that means they have to abide by 296 00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:34,040 Speaker 1: wage laws in that state. They have to pay you know, 297 00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:37,239 Speaker 1: social Security, Medicare, tax all this different stuff. You know, 298 00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:40,719 Speaker 1: there's a lot that goes into it. The reason that 299 00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:43,040 Speaker 1: illegal labor is so they'll tell you, oh, it's because 300 00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:45,000 Speaker 1: they work so hard. No, just like with the H 301 00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:48,320 Speaker 1: one B visa scam, when you look into this, there's 302 00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:52,600 Speaker 1: a lot of exploitation going on both sides of the equation. 303 00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:55,720 Speaker 1: A lot of big numbers being thrown around Washington, DC 304 00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:58,480 Speaker 1: this week as the Big Beautiful Bill. It's being contemplated 305 00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:01,400 Speaker 1: by the Senate. But there's a bigger that's being contemplated 306 00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:04,640 Speaker 1: by Jim Rickards. Look, Jim Rickards is a guy who 307 00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:06,520 Speaker 1: thinks that our country has an asset that could be 308 00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:08,800 Speaker 1: worth as much as one hundred and fifty trillion dollars. 309 00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:11,960 Speaker 1: This asset has been buried under American soil and may 310 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:14,840 Speaker 1: well be the basis for creating such a fun Jim Rickards, 311 00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:16,440 Speaker 1: as I said, he's a former advisor of the White 312 00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:19,840 Speaker 1: House in Federal Reserve tells everybody that if you're over fifty, 313 00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:22,040 Speaker 1: this could be your best chance to build lasting well 314 00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:24,879 Speaker 1: from a once in a century event, which could be 315 00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:27,760 Speaker 1: great news for people in this audience. And there could 316 00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:30,760 Speaker 1: be some really fantastic investment opportunities that Jim wants to 317 00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:33,800 Speaker 1: talk to you about. But go hear his thinking at 318 00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:36,879 Speaker 1: birthright twenty twenty five dot com. A lot of this 319 00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:40,720 Speaker 1: conversation is a result of President Trump's recent moves, and 320 00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:43,040 Speaker 1: if he's right, it could be huge for you and 321 00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:46,240 Speaker 1: your retirement. Go to birthright twenty twenty five dot com 322 00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:49,800 Speaker 1: to get the details free of charge. That's birthright twenty 323 00:18:49,880 --> 00:19:00,879 Speaker 1: twenty five dot com paid for by Paradigm Press. So 324 00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:05,639 Speaker 1: we should always remember that some of the things that 325 00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:08,399 Speaker 1: we see going on right now that are even a 326 00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:11,399 Speaker 1: bit in the background of what Trump is doing, what 327 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:16,480 Speaker 1: this administration is making a reality, are things that those 328 00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:19,119 Speaker 1: of us who have been in the conservative movement or 329 00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:24,159 Speaker 1: just ideologically conservative for quite some time, in my case 330 00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:28,720 Speaker 1: working in conservative media fourteen years. Sorry I told you. 331 00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:31,280 Speaker 1: I saw my friend Glenn Beck, a friend and mentor 332 00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:34,199 Speaker 1: Glenn Beck, yesterday and he pointed out it was fourteen 333 00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:36,639 Speaker 1: years ago that we linked up at the Blaze. He 334 00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:40,320 Speaker 1: hired me, and so fourteen years of that. But I've 335 00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:42,119 Speaker 1: been a conservative for as long as I can remember. 336 00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:45,760 Speaker 1: It would seem like the stuff of dreams to be 337 00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:48,280 Speaker 1: in the place we are in on some of these issues. 338 00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:51,359 Speaker 1: And I do not believe that's an exaggeration. We've been 339 00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:55,120 Speaker 1: waiting a very long time, a very long time for 340 00:19:55,200 --> 00:20:01,520 Speaker 1: someone who would essentially dismember the CNN propaganda organization, which 341 00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:04,879 Speaker 1: is what Trump has done. There was a time when CNN, 342 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:07,119 Speaker 1: and especially I think because I lived in New York City, 343 00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:14,000 Speaker 1: it really was able to wield, unfortunately, this gravitas and 344 00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:17,399 Speaker 1: credibility among a lot of well intentioned and good and 345 00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 1: well informed people. They said, well CNN. I would know 346 00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:24,080 Speaker 1: people who I would even describe as right of center 347 00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:29,720 Speaker 1: who would say things like CNN is pretty neutral, and 348 00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:31,280 Speaker 1: I would look at them like, no, it's not. 349 00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:32,200 Speaker 3: It's not. 350 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:35,000 Speaker 1: Now they wouldn't say that anymore. Everyone's realizing and is 351 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:38,040 Speaker 1: completely insane. But if you're going back fifteen or twenty years, 352 00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:40,800 Speaker 1: people would have said a lot of people, you know, 353 00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:44,040 Speaker 1: I mean, think about it. I mean Tucker Carlson started 354 00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:49,280 Speaker 1: his career at CNN on TV with crossfire right, it 355 00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:52,600 Speaker 1: used to be less insane, is what I'm saying. They 356 00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:56,840 Speaker 1: used to have actual conservatives on but that somebody could 357 00:20:56,880 --> 00:21:01,040 Speaker 1: come along as CNN and MSNBC and the New York Times, 358 00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:06,040 Speaker 1: and these the premiere propaganda outlets of the Democrat Party 359 00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:10,240 Speaker 1: as they reached the pinnacle of their power, which I 360 00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:14,760 Speaker 1: would really say was the second Obama term. And then 361 00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:18,720 Speaker 1: you get into Trump and they they basically went too 362 00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:21,439 Speaker 1: far against Trump, and then Trump has brought them to 363 00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:24,600 Speaker 1: heal and essentially and brought them low. But that's a 364 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:27,280 Speaker 1: dream come true for those of us who are on 365 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:30,880 Speaker 1: the right that there is a there are a number 366 00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:34,440 Speaker 1: of social media platforms now where you can share your 367 00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:36,960 Speaker 1: thoughts and not have it be explicitly centered. One of 368 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:41,720 Speaker 1: my great frustrations during COVID was I YouTube. I had 369 00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:45,200 Speaker 1: multiple YouTube channels banned just for talking about COVID stuff. 370 00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:47,439 Speaker 1: You know, you know me, I'm not. I'm not some 371 00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:51,720 Speaker 1: provocateur on the right. I just like this mask stuff 372 00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:53,960 Speaker 1: in the lockdowns. This is moronic. There's no basis for it. 373 00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:56,840 Speaker 1: I was completely right. People who disagree with me were wrong, 374 00:21:56,920 --> 00:22:01,000 Speaker 1: not as smart as they thought they were. Including you know, Google, 375 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:02,880 Speaker 1: one of the most powerful companies on Earth. But now 376 00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:06,439 Speaker 1: we have X and now we have truth Social and 377 00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:10,199 Speaker 1: Rumble and you know other things other places too, So 378 00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:16,040 Speaker 1: that and it's easy for us to have these wins 379 00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:19,679 Speaker 1: that we don't necessarily take a moment to appreciate and 380 00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:23,400 Speaker 1: to con and to to push for more of them, 381 00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:26,159 Speaker 1: right or to push more in these areas. I'm speaking 382 00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:31,240 Speaker 1: about this because we're seeing a people call it a 383 00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:33,000 Speaker 1: vibe shift. I know that's a little bit of the 384 00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:36,000 Speaker 1: contemporary lingo with the kids these days, but it is 385 00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:42,639 Speaker 1: something of a vibe shift right now from corporate America. Actually, 386 00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:45,439 Speaker 1: it's i would argue, a powerful vibe shift. It's not 387 00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:48,560 Speaker 1: a little bit, it's a lot. And we're entering a 388 00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:54,320 Speaker 1: new period here where oppress half the country's ideas and 389 00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:57,240 Speaker 1: they'll still come back and shop with you, They'll still 390 00:22:57,240 --> 00:23:00,560 Speaker 1: come back and buy your product. That's a much diceer 391 00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:04,520 Speaker 1: proposition than it was before Trump won this last election. 392 00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:08,560 Speaker 1: We are not in twenty twenty anymore where you would 393 00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:12,240 Speaker 1: just have the most blatant, I mean the most just 394 00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:20,600 Speaker 1: thuggish suppression of conservative ideas by companies, by platforms. I'm 395 00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:23,679 Speaker 1: not saying the pendulum has swung totally of the direction. 396 00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:27,399 Speaker 1: It is beginning to swing in the other direction, and 397 00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:29,120 Speaker 1: that is a win. And we are starting to see 398 00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:33,080 Speaker 1: these changes. I give you for example, City Group, which 399 00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:37,280 Speaker 1: is one of the largest financial institutions in the world, 400 00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:46,880 Speaker 1: has reversed its policy on restricting banking services for gun 401 00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:51,760 Speaker 1: companies and firearms clients. In a statement on June third, 402 00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:54,879 Speaker 1: the bank said a decision had been made over fair 403 00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:58,760 Speaker 1: access to banking services. City Group will no longer have 404 00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:03,040 Speaker 1: a specific policy as it results to firearms. This is 405 00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:07,639 Speaker 1: a step back from the d banking that was going 406 00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:13,640 Speaker 1: on for years and is one of the most pernicious 407 00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:18,720 Speaker 1: and undermining and really aggressive things that the Left was 408 00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:24,000 Speaker 1: doing in the private sector to suppress ideas that didn't 409 00:24:24,119 --> 00:24:30,720 Speaker 1: like and to just politically bludgeon the other side. So 410 00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:35,440 Speaker 1: in twenty eighteen, they implemented a firearms policy that basically 411 00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:38,200 Speaker 1: meant they wouldn't well, the policy is they wouldn't work 412 00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:44,720 Speaker 1: people that sold guns. They had all these rules and 413 00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:47,359 Speaker 1: they were they had to restrict firearms on all these 414 00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:49,520 Speaker 1: different bases. If you don't do it, they won't work 415 00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:54,159 Speaker 1: with you. So that, I think is just one of 416 00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:58,760 Speaker 1: many things that we're going to see here where these 417 00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:03,440 Speaker 1: companies are are no longer confident enough, even if they 418 00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:05,760 Speaker 1: I don't think that they like conservatives. I want to 419 00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:07,600 Speaker 1: be clear. I don't think that the people in charge 420 00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:11,040 Speaker 1: have changed their mind about a lot of this. Maybe 421 00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:16,359 Speaker 1: some have, some haven't. It's too large of an issue 422 00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:19,240 Speaker 1: and too many people involved to say that definitively. But 423 00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:23,200 Speaker 1: what I do know is that they recognize there could 424 00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:28,480 Speaker 1: be consequences to discriminating against the right with their business. 425 00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:34,119 Speaker 1: Now things have changed. And this is also after a 426 00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:37,600 Speaker 1: dozen In April of twenty twenty four, a dozen Republican 427 00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:41,880 Speaker 1: state attorney generals state attorneys general rather wrote a letter 428 00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:46,160 Speaker 1: to Bank of America with regard to their debanking policies 429 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:52,040 Speaker 1: and the systemic biases that they have, and that to 430 00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:54,440 Speaker 1: think about this banks, which we do think of I 431 00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:57,160 Speaker 1: know they're private, but you think of banking services as 432 00:25:57,240 --> 00:26:01,240 Speaker 1: being non should be non political in nature, right. So 433 00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:05,720 Speaker 1: if you went into Bank of America, or you went 434 00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:09,680 Speaker 1: into you know, any of these financial institutions and they 435 00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:11,480 Speaker 1: and you said, hey, I'd like to open a checking 436 00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:13,320 Speaker 1: account with you, And they said, who'd you vote for 437 00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:17,280 Speaker 1: in the last election, And you said, well, I'm not 438 00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:20,160 Speaker 1: a communist, so I voted for Trump and they said, 439 00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:22,600 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, we can't take your business. We'd all recognize 440 00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:25,919 Speaker 1: that's a that's a that's a big deal, that's a 441 00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:30,360 Speaker 1: big problem, right, And that this kind of political discrimination 442 00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:32,760 Speaker 1: discrimination was going on for as many years as it 443 00:26:32,840 --> 00:26:41,359 Speaker 1: did without any meaningful pushback from the judiciary or from 444 00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:49,680 Speaker 1: Congress is appalling, absolutely appalling. Trump Organizations sued Capital One, 445 00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:53,639 Speaker 1: accusing the bank of closing hundreds of accounts belonging to 446 00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:57,399 Speaker 1: the company. Trump Organization said that Capital One's unilateral decision 447 00:26:57,480 --> 00:27:01,320 Speaker 1: came about as a result of political and social motivations 448 00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:10,760 Speaker 1: and woke beliefs. Banks. Banks are now left wing, woke enforcers. Well, 449 00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:14,800 Speaker 1: they have been for years, and now it's finally turning around. 450 00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:18,760 Speaker 1: Now it is finally changing where they don't feel comfortable 451 00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:23,480 Speaker 1: doing this. This is really meaningful. And note the next 452 00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:26,920 Speaker 1: the next phase of this needs to be we need 453 00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:33,640 Speaker 1: to demand if there is an ad that runs on MSNBC, Okay, 454 00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:36,960 Speaker 1: I want to know why that company isn't running ads 455 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:40,440 Speaker 1: on Fox News. And we need to start to hold 456 00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:47,320 Speaker 1: these companies to account. If Mercedes and BMW and I 457 00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:49,040 Speaker 1: don't know I mean, you know, who are some of 458 00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:52,280 Speaker 1: those Wow, star We've got our own coffee company here, 459 00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:54,639 Speaker 1: thank you very much, and to talk about Starbucks. But 460 00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:58,040 Speaker 1: if some of these major international brands, you know, Apple, 461 00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:02,879 Speaker 1: if they're willing to put money in advertising to reach 462 00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:07,119 Speaker 1: an audience that will watch MSNBC, I want to know 463 00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:10,520 Speaker 1: on what basis they're not putting money with with with 464 00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:14,879 Speaker 1: Fox News, with NEWSMAC, with talk radio. Why why is 465 00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:17,880 Speaker 1: it that left wing podcasters who are wrong about everything 466 00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:22,159 Speaker 1: and who are lunatics can count on corporate dollars and 467 00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:24,960 Speaker 1: on the right, it's always that there's always this concern 468 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:28,600 Speaker 1: about brand safety. Why are they safe? But we're not safe? 469 00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:31,840 Speaker 1: Are people? Just won the election? We're in charge, we 470 00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:36,120 Speaker 1: run the country brand safety, you know. I mean, look, 471 00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:38,840 Speaker 1: I understand free market, private market people can do what 472 00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:41,560 Speaker 1: they want, but we can also do what we want 473 00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:43,840 Speaker 1: and say to any company that's out there that's putting 474 00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:49,440 Speaker 1: real money on left wing programming, hey what's going on here? 475 00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:52,760 Speaker 1: And force them to answer the question. Force some of 476 00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:55,680 Speaker 1: these companies, you know, for forced like Ford Motors or 477 00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:57,920 Speaker 1: you know whoever it is. I'm just coming up with big, 478 00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:00,600 Speaker 1: big companies, but force them to say you know what, 479 00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:05,200 Speaker 1: half the country can go, you know, can go take 480 00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:07,920 Speaker 1: a long walk off a short peer with their politics, 481 00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:11,600 Speaker 1: and we think they'll just buy our stuff anyway, you jerks. 482 00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:16,160 Speaker 1: Let's hear them say that. Now, let's let's force them 483 00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:22,320 Speaker 1: out a little bit, because this matters. This matters the left. 484 00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:25,280 Speaker 1: One of the great things about this Trump administration has 485 00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:32,720 Speaker 1: been disassembling the forever regime of the universities and the 486 00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:38,920 Speaker 1: the you know, corporate HR Woke DEEI apparatus, and and 487 00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:42,800 Speaker 1: the way that the the NGOs that suckle at the 488 00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:46,720 Speaker 1: teat of places like US, A, I, D and NPR. 489 00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:50,560 Speaker 1: This this needed to be done. And I've talked about 490 00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:52,840 Speaker 1: being a conservative for a long time. We've dreamt of 491 00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:58,240 Speaker 1: this fight finally happening for decades, and now it's finally here. 492 00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:01,680 Speaker 1: And Trump is doing so many things. This administration is 493 00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:05,640 Speaker 1: moving on so many fronts that I think it's easy 494 00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:09,200 Speaker 1: to have some of this stuff get a little bit lost. 495 00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:12,640 Speaker 1: It's easy for us not to put enough focus on 496 00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:15,840 Speaker 1: all of these different things because there's so many of them. 497 00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:21,160 Speaker 1: But forcing companies to end as a matter of policy, 498 00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:24,320 Speaker 1: and I mean the biggest companies in America, the biggest 499 00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:27,440 Speaker 1: companies in the world, forcing them to end political discrimination 500 00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:30,800 Speaker 1: right down in their company by laws. We will not 501 00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:38,200 Speaker 1: as a company deny services, deny product to people because 502 00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:43,440 Speaker 1: of lawful political belief, which, whether they want to accept 503 00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:46,840 Speaker 1: or not. Voting for Trump is a lawful political belief. 504 00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:50,200 Speaker 1: The right to bear arms the Second Amendment, being a 505 00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:54,320 Speaker 1: gun owner and wanting to have a constitutional right, that 506 00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:58,880 Speaker 1: is a lawful belief. And any institution that is going 507 00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:04,040 Speaker 1: to discriminate on a political basis, the Trump administration should 508 00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:07,200 Speaker 1: immediately take whatever legal actions are possible, sue them and 509 00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:10,000 Speaker 1: let the courts figure it out. Oh but buck, isn't 510 00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:12,959 Speaker 1: that that's what they do. Let's see, Let's see how 511 00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:17,080 Speaker 1: it shakes out. Sue them. And also the public should 512 00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:23,280 Speaker 1: start to demand accountability and openness about what's going on here. 513 00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:25,800 Speaker 1: So City Group no longer says that we're going to 514 00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:28,760 Speaker 1: have these weird policies when it comes to guns, because 515 00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:32,120 Speaker 1: the idiot leftists who are busy, i'm sure counting their 516 00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:35,720 Speaker 1: huge bonuses who run that place realize this is not 517 00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:37,960 Speaker 1: going to be a good look for us.

I'm sure a lot of you are going 553 00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:50,200 Speaker 1: to be flying this summer traveling, you know, summertime, right, 554 00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:53,640 Speaker 1: people go to places, And if you have been paying 555 00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:57,280 Speaker 1: attention in recent months, the air traffic control situation has 556 00:33:57,360 --> 00:34:01,080 Speaker 1: been a mess. Yes, it is well was inherited by 557 00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:04,760 Speaker 1: this administration from the Biden disaster. I know they're trying 558 00:34:04,760 --> 00:34:07,480 Speaker 1: to fix it. So we'll talk to Sean Duffy, Secretary 559 00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:12,239 Speaker 1: Duffy about that. And I certainly want to know there 560 00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:16,439 Speaker 1: is just my perception is that flying somehow just keeps 561 00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:22,359 Speaker 1: getting worse, That there's more delays, that there's less efficiency, 562 00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:26,480 Speaker 1: that customer service is getting worse. I think it's the 563 00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:31,200 Speaker 1: only area that I'm trying to think. What else just 564 00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:34,719 Speaker 1: keeps getting worse every year? While technology gets better and 565 00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:39,719 Speaker 1: everything should be streamlining and improving. How is it possible 566 00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:43,680 Speaker 1: that flying is more stressful than I can ever remember 567 00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:46,239 Speaker 1: it being. Maybe that's just a perception thing, but I 568 00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:49,160 Speaker 1: do know that there's so much time, you know. The 569 00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:52,040 Speaker 1: one that really drives me in some ways the most 570 00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:55,640 Speaker 1: insane is the when you land and you think you're 571 00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:57,520 Speaker 1: about to get off the plane and then you sit 572 00:34:57,560 --> 00:35:01,120 Speaker 1: there for forty five minutes because there's no ground crew 573 00:35:01,160 --> 00:35:04,000 Speaker 1: to let you out of the plane. Well, let's be honest. 574 00:35:04,080 --> 00:35:05,680 Speaker 1: You start to have little thoughts in your head about 575 00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:07,560 Speaker 1: like what if I just like hit that slide and 576 00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:09,120 Speaker 1: you know, just sort of hopped out, you know what 577 00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:11,520 Speaker 1: I mean. You start to have some crazy thoughts because 578 00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:13,960 Speaker 1: you want to get off that plane because it landed 579 00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:15,840 Speaker 1: and everyone's safe, and you want to get off, and 580 00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:21,920 Speaker 1: but you know, there we are sitting there waiting, waiting. 581 00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:26,080 Speaker 1: It really test your patience so that I want to 582 00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:27,920 Speaker 1: get some answers, and I know Sean's going to have 583 00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:31,200 Speaker 1: updates for us. Sorry, he plumps. I've known Sean Secretary 584 00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:34,560 Speaker 1: Duffy for years now and this is a thing for me. 585 00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:36,160 Speaker 1: A lot of these guys who run the country now 586 00:35:36,239 --> 00:35:39,120 Speaker 1: or cabinet level secretaries, I've had beers with in the past, 587 00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:43,120 Speaker 1: and sometimes many times, and so it's I have to 588 00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:47,960 Speaker 1: remember the formal title. But yes, Secretary duff would be 589 00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:49,120 Speaker 1: with this. We'll talk to him about this. I think 590 00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:50,960 Speaker 1: that's going to be important if you're on hold and 591 00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:53,160 Speaker 1: or you want to send it a talk back.
