1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,320 Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Buck 2 00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:07,560 Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. Clay and Buck Show gets started right 3 00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:10,520 Speaker 1: now on this Wednesday all across the land. Thanks for 4 00:00:10,680 --> 00:00:13,640 Speaker 1: hanging out with us. Everybody got some things to get 5 00:00:13,680 --> 00:00:19,880 Speaker 1: into today. Mister Clay, we have the biggest grounding of 6 00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:24,040 Speaker 1: flights in this country since nine to eleven just occurred 7 00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:26,760 Speaker 1: this morning. Air travel. We got to talk a bit 8 00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:30,600 Speaker 1: about this. It feels like we are just going backwards 9 00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:34,400 Speaker 1: in time with air travel in a whole range of ways. 10 00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:40,080 Speaker 1: But when the FAA computer for the no tam Notice 11 00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:43,720 Speaker 1: to air mission system, so I think that's what keeps 12 00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:46,600 Speaker 1: the FAA knowing where all the different planes are in 13 00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:49,479 Speaker 1: the sky at any point in time. When that computer 14 00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:54,200 Speaker 1: system goes down and all the flights have to be grounded, 15 00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:58,320 Speaker 1: starts to raise some questions about how competent is this 16 00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:03,920 Speaker 1: Biden regime that Transportation Secretary Mayor Pete Buddha Judge doing. 17 00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:06,240 Speaker 1: We will dive into that in a second. You've also 18 00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:10,440 Speaker 1: got the Republicans already on the move here. The Subcommittee 19 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:16,560 Speaker 1: on Government Weaponization really meaning the weaponization of the Federal bureaucracy, 20 00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:23,200 Speaker 1: the FBI being used as a tool of politics in 21 00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:26,280 Speaker 1: a whole variety of ways. We'll discuss that. Jerome Powell 22 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:30,759 Speaker 1: gave a speech where he warned the Federal Reserve not 23 00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:35,959 Speaker 1: to tackle climate change and social issues, which just the 24 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:39,880 Speaker 1: fact that people at the Federal Reserve are thinking about 25 00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:46,080 Speaker 1: that should put everybody on edge. That's deeply concerning. And 26 00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:50,040 Speaker 1: we have David's why do you remember he's a journalist 27 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:56,240 Speaker 1: of the Democrat Persuasion who has done honest research into 28 00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:59,480 Speaker 1: masking and spoiler alert. Clay and I had him on 29 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:01,920 Speaker 1: for this. You are know he came forward for the 30 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:04,160 Speaker 1: New York magazine I believe it was he published in 31 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:06,800 Speaker 1: right and he said, yes, masking just look, it just 32 00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:09,240 Speaker 1: doesn't work, folks. I mean you can, you can try 33 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:11,040 Speaker 1: it a million different ways and times it doesn't work. 34 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:13,360 Speaker 1: He has some information this will be in the second 35 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 1: out of the program on analysis on how all that 36 00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:19,360 Speaker 1: don't hug grandma if you're a little kid, because you 37 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:24,320 Speaker 1: may kill grandma with COVID lies not true based on 38 00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:27,800 Speaker 1: the data. Fascinating stuff we'll get to, and then we 39 00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:32,000 Speaker 1: also have some updates from the True Crime Realm to 40 00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:33,440 Speaker 1: share it with all of you. But that that's going 41 00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 1: to be coming up throughout the show, so we are 42 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:37,519 Speaker 1: racked and stacked. Clay, can we just start with this? 43 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:42,960 Speaker 1: This is classic Biden this morning, saying that you know, 44 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:44,960 Speaker 1: he spoke to Mayor Pete, who I guess we have 45 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:49,440 Speaker 1: to say is now Secretary of Transportation Pete. And the 46 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 1: short version is they don't know what the heck happened here, 47 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 1: play one. I guess folk with udd they don't know 48 00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:57,840 Speaker 1: what the fog is. There was on the phone and 49 00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 1: sad I told you of Court Rectvie when I find out, 50 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:04,800 Speaker 1: we don't know what the cause of it is. Price 51 00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:09,799 Speaker 1: of gas, high supply, chain snarls and shortages, the worst 52 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:13,120 Speaker 1: I've seen in my memory in this country, the worst 53 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:17,320 Speaker 1: grounding of flights since nine to eleven. Clay, Mayor Pete's 54 00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 1: got quite the resume going so far for this Biden regime. 55 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:23,679 Speaker 1: And remember, Clay, he's supposed to be the smart one. Yeah, 56 00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 1: he's a disaster so far. And we were out during 57 00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 1: Christmas break when Southwest Airlines basically shut down. And I 58 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 1: know there are many of you listening to us right 59 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 1: now that got caught up in that disaster, and Mayor 60 00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 1: Pete was caught flatfooted on that one I think it's 61 00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 1: fair to say. I mean, I started tweeting about it 62 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 1: long before the mayor did, because here in Nashville, where 63 00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:54,200 Speaker 1: Southwest airlines fly so much, I could see that happening. 64 00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 1: My own sister got stuck for three days in Chicago 65 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 1: because she couldn't fly on the West the storm hit 66 00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:03,640 Speaker 1: everything else. I had lots of friends and family who 67 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:07,120 Speaker 1: were impacted by that all over the country. So there's 68 00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:10,640 Speaker 1: still a lot of anger out there in the airline 69 00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:14,680 Speaker 1: flying community. And then to combine it this morning, when 70 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:20,279 Speaker 1: all of a sudden the FAA shuts down everything, it's 71 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:23,880 Speaker 1: it's a bad look for travel and Buck, this is 72 00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 1: something that has been going on for it feels like 73 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 1: multiple years now of the Biden administration. I know there 74 00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 1: are many people out there listening to us who you 75 00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 1: are nervous in a way that you were never nervous 76 00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 1: before about even going to the airport because your flights 77 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:45,600 Speaker 1: are delayed. Because I talked about this story Buck this summer, 78 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:49,920 Speaker 1: I was down in Fort Lauderdale eight hours at an 79 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:53,599 Speaker 1: airport and then they just said, hey, the flight is canceled, 80 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:57,640 Speaker 1: and they were booking people like three and four days 81 00:04:57,800 --> 00:04:59,680 Speaker 1: later to be able to get on a flight to 82 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 1: get back home. And I feel like almost everyone who 83 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 1: travels somewhat regularly has got a story in the last 84 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:10,280 Speaker 1: six months where the airline industry just appears to be 85 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:14,680 Speaker 1: at an absolutely incompetent level. And as you mentioned, it's 86 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:18,240 Speaker 1: one thing when nine to eleven is involved, when there 87 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:22,240 Speaker 1: is some sort of cataclysmic event, that you understand why 88 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 1: the airplane. No one shouting about the incompetence of the 89 00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 1: Transportation secretary after nine eleven for obvious reasons. But now 90 00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 1: we don't even know what's causing many of these things, 91 00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:38,080 Speaker 1: and it's the conjunction of failure. When Mayor Pete in 92 00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:40,920 Speaker 1: let me read you some of the headlines recently, I 93 00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:44,600 Speaker 1: just retweeted this, But the way that Mayor Pete is 94 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:49,280 Speaker 1: making news is by focusing on diversity and inclusion in 95 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:52,160 Speaker 1: the airplanes. And I gotta be honest with you, Buck, 96 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:57,440 Speaker 1: my airline pilot is one of the things, along with 97 00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 1: maybe your open heart surgeon or your neurosurgeon, where no 98 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:07,120 Speaker 1: one thinks at all about diversity and inclusion when it 99 00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:09,520 Speaker 1: comes to that. Right, when I walk on an airplane, 100 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 1: all I want to know is, Hey, how long have 101 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:15,560 Speaker 1: you been flying? Airplanes and how great are you? And 102 00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:19,840 Speaker 1: so when I see the FAA recently saying the language 103 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:23,839 Speaker 1: we use in aerospace matters, We've begun to adopt gender 104 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:28,560 Speaker 1: neutral and inclusive aviation terminology as part of our agency 105 00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 1: wide initiative. You can watch our Inclusive Language summit at 106 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:37,560 Speaker 1: hashtag equity. Join our discussion on how the words we 107 00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 1: use can create a more inclusive aerospace community. This is 108 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:45,600 Speaker 1: the FAA tweeting this. The FAA's Jenny Boyle reflects on 109 00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 1: LGBTQI plus visibility within the agency and encourages others to 110 00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 1: keep the conversation going to build a more inclusive workforce. 111 00:06:56,960 --> 00:07:00,240 Speaker 1: As one more buck, aerospaces for everyone. This is the 112 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:04,600 Speaker 1: FAA's official account aerospace is for everyone and the language 113 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:08,320 Speaker 1: we use matters. We launched an agency wide initiative to 114 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 1: adopt gender neutral and inclusive aviation terminology. Watch the Inclusive 115 00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:17,920 Speaker 1: Language Summit at Best of twenty twenty one. I want 116 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:20,040 Speaker 1: my airplanes taken off. I don't care about any of this, 117 00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 1: and I think this is indicative of a misplaced focus. Well, 118 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 1: you know, it's fascinating because what you're going to have 119 00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:30,640 Speaker 1: here is something similar to you know about with orchestras. 120 00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:35,320 Speaker 1: It's fascinating case study in meritocracy because diversity and inclusion 121 00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 1: madness as practiced by democrats these days, it keeps getting 122 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 1: worse and crazier. But it is an effectively a war 123 00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:47,200 Speaker 1: on meritocracy, or it is an effort to destroy the 124 00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:52,800 Speaker 1: notion of just individual merits separate from political considerations, identity, politics, 125 00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:56,320 Speaker 1: and all the rest. So for orchestras. Were you a 126 00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 1: classical musician growing up? I actually was classic nutrained. I'm 127 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:03,280 Speaker 1: tone deaf, literally, I can't sing. I was in chorus 128 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:05,880 Speaker 1: and they told me just to announce the songs. I mean, 129 00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 1: I am maybe the worst musical person on the planet. 130 00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 1: So no, I'm not an expert in this. I was. 131 00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:14,120 Speaker 1: I was asked to actually be in a university orchestra. 132 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:16,320 Speaker 1: And one of the big secrets of my media career 133 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:19,000 Speaker 1: to this day is nobody knows what the instrument is. Yeah, 134 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:22,720 Speaker 1: what is instrument? Was it the tuba? Was it the harpsichord? 135 00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:25,560 Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe one day I'll tell people, but 136 00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:27,160 Speaker 1: I want to know. I can't you just tell us 137 00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 1: right now? What was the instrument? Like? To keep people 138 00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:31,679 Speaker 1: you know, I think that means it's a nerd instrument 139 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 1: when Tom Hanks wouldn't tell anybody where he was from 140 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 1: and saving private Ryan. This is like my Tom Hanks 141 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:40,679 Speaker 1: moment with that, I don't tell anybody. Nobody knows what 142 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:44,760 Speaker 1: the motment. Embarrassing instrument. If you are refusing to acknowledge 143 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:47,760 Speaker 1: the instrument, it is not the instrument that tends to 144 00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:52,000 Speaker 1: get all the ladies. However, I was proficient in it. Nonetheless, 145 00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:55,040 Speaker 1: now people are gonna the deep diving. It's gonna happen. 146 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 1: There's probably fail so Carrie knows, but she has sworn 147 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 1: to secrecy. I've older. I said this is this is 148 00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:03,839 Speaker 1: the one part of my past that people don't get 149 00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:06,280 Speaker 1: to know about necessarily. One day it might be unveiled 150 00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:09,320 Speaker 1: one day. Anyway, Look, if I played a little piccolo, 151 00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:11,199 Speaker 1: I was good at it. Don't worry about it. So 152 00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:12,760 Speaker 1: to say it, it's not a cool one. If you're 153 00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:15,120 Speaker 1: refusing to a game. It definitely was an electric guitar 154 00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 1: or piano or actually I was telling carry, I think 155 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:20,360 Speaker 1: the saxophone is really cool and people should make that. 156 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:23,079 Speaker 1: Saxophone should make a comeback. I think people got always 157 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:24,920 Speaker 1: Bill Clintons. That was Bill Clinton. Remember when we went 158 00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:27,319 Speaker 1: on our CITYO Hall and played the Sacks probably the 159 00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:29,400 Speaker 1: coolest thing about Bill Clinton. I gotta be honest with you, 160 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 1: you know, I can't hate on the Sacks. I think 161 00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:34,600 Speaker 1: Saxophone should make a comeback anyway. Point being that they 162 00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:38,640 Speaker 1: had blind all internet, wasn't it? I can either confirm 163 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:41,880 Speaker 1: nor deny man, I'm not was it? The flute can 164 00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:45,559 Speaker 1: neither confirm nor deny clay I you could waterboard me. 165 00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:49,719 Speaker 1: It's not coming out. So they had blind auditions, and 166 00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:52,040 Speaker 1: what happened is he said, okay, well, now people have 167 00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:55,160 Speaker 1: it's just about the skill. How good are you? And 168 00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:57,079 Speaker 1: it's about the music, and that's all that matters. And 169 00:09:57,200 --> 00:10:00,040 Speaker 1: you know what they said, blind auditions were racist that 170 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 1: would eventually happened because they weren't getting Yeah, of course 171 00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:05,839 Speaker 1: they weren't getting the output that they wanted, so it 172 00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:09,720 Speaker 1: didn't matter what pilots in essence, are a blind audition, 173 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:13,000 Speaker 1: meaning I should shouldn't they blind audition? But the people 174 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 1: it's a little different, and that the people that get 175 00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:16,840 Speaker 1: on the plane, you usually don't even see the pilots. 176 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:19,880 Speaker 1: You don't care. You just want the best possible pilots. 177 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 1: You want the highest output from those pilots, especially in 178 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:27,480 Speaker 1: terms of safety. When you land, nobody is clapping because, 179 00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:31,120 Speaker 1: oh my gosh, our transpilot did such a great job. 180 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:33,960 Speaker 1: They're happy because they landed and they're safe. We don't 181 00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:35,680 Speaker 1: care what the color of the person is, the gender 182 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:38,679 Speaker 1: the person is, anything else that is unacceptable to the 183 00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:41,640 Speaker 1: new Left, that is unacceptable to Democrat Party of today. 184 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:45,280 Speaker 1: You are being made to care about these things. The FAA, 185 00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:49,880 Speaker 1: air traffic Control, every aspect of the federal bureaucracy is 186 00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 1: just run through now with all of these ideas about 187 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:57,439 Speaker 1: diversity and inclusion, and they want, you know, I think 188 00:10:57,480 --> 00:11:01,400 Speaker 1: the mindset of conservatives is I don't want, you know, 189 00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:04,880 Speaker 1: like whatever. We can't just whatever, because they will keep 190 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:07,360 Speaker 1: pushing because this is messianic for them. This is a 191 00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:11,040 Speaker 1: religious experience for them to continue to push diversity to inclusion. 192 00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:13,200 Speaker 1: And may or Pete will not be held to account 193 00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:15,920 Speaker 1: by the media on anything. You have to remember that 194 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:19,480 Speaker 1: as well. And if you're wondering the connection, it's because 195 00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 1: every agency can only focus on so much. And the 196 00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:26,559 Speaker 1: things that you and I and I think ninety eight 197 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 1: percent probably of the American flying public care about has 198 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 1: nothing to do with the cosmetic diversity of the cockpit 199 00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:37,400 Speaker 1: or the language that we use such that cockpit is 200 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:41,319 Speaker 1: evidently problematic. Now right, there's discussion, Oh the cockpit. It 201 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:44,439 Speaker 1: suggests that there's men and men and men fly in 202 00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:48,079 Speaker 1: the airplane. UH and UH and and I got. I 203 00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:50,720 Speaker 1: got a DM recently from a pilot and I flagged 204 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:53,560 Speaker 1: this because I thought it was so interesting. UM where 205 00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:57,760 Speaker 1: he was talking about the UH. The current situation UM 206 00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:01,840 Speaker 1: in the UH in the cockpit, which is they are 207 00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:06,480 Speaker 1: changing the names of so many different aspects of this 208 00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 1: is what I got today, Delta Airlines Pilot Daily listener. 209 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:12,200 Speaker 1: I don't know if you know, but the no TAM 210 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:18,280 Speaker 1: system that went down was until recently stood for notice 211 00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:22,839 Speaker 1: to Airmen. It was changed by the Gender Brigade to 212 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:26,319 Speaker 1: notice to air mission a few months ago because the 213 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:31,160 Speaker 1: word airmen was too male, insulting an exclusionary towards women. 214 00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:35,679 Speaker 1: It's true. Nice to know the FAA is prioritizing the 215 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:40,439 Speaker 1: important things. Again, get all the planes in the air 216 00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:44,120 Speaker 1: flying safely, no matter who is flying them. Let's have 217 00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 1: a meritocracy out there. Instead, we're focused on cosmetic diversity, 218 00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:50,360 Speaker 1: which is why Mayor Pete has his job in the 219 00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:53,439 Speaker 1: first place. And everything around him is failing. You know, 220 00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:56,280 Speaker 1: there can be no sacred cows when people's lives are 221 00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:59,120 Speaker 1: at stake, And when you're talking about flying, you're talking 222 00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:01,760 Speaker 1: about live Everyone who gets even a little bit nervous 223 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 1: when that little bit of turbulence comes along you know 224 00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 1: exactly what we're talking about. And in example this there 225 00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:09,800 Speaker 1: was a catastrophic crash many years ago. I can't remember 226 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:12,080 Speaker 1: it off the top of my head, but when they 227 00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:16,040 Speaker 1: looked into it, it was with a South Korean airline 228 00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:19,839 Speaker 1: and the problem that they identified was that, as a 229 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:25,319 Speaker 1: cultural matter in South Korea, telling your superior that he 230 00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:29,200 Speaker 1: is wrong is completely unacceptable. And so while there were 231 00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:33,599 Speaker 1: mistakes being made in the cockpit, the subordinate pilot and 232 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:36,000 Speaker 1: another pilot as well, who were also subordinate to the 233 00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:39,559 Speaker 1: main guy, were afraid to tell him basically, if you 234 00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:41,360 Speaker 1: don't change this and pull up, we're going to run 235 00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:43,240 Speaker 1: into the side of a mountain. And they ran into 236 00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:45,839 Speaker 1: the side of a mountain. More or less, you have 237 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:50,199 Speaker 1: to address these things based in reality, wokeness, diversity and inclusion, 238 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:54,960 Speaker 1: political correctness. No one cares about that when they're thirty 239 00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:57,040 Speaker 1: five thousand feet in the air going five hundred miles 240 00:13:57,040 --> 00:14:00,439 Speaker 1: an hour, so worth noting that, you know, yeah, we 241 00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:02,959 Speaker 1: don't know what caused this system out as yet, but 242 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:05,680 Speaker 1: we do know that the wokeness is spreading all across 243 00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 1: the federal bureaucracy, including when it comes to air travel, 244 00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:12,439 Speaker 1: and it's replacing competence as the number one standard of 245 00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:16,760 Speaker 1: the most important standard, which should be safety. If one 246 00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 1: of your goals this year is finding savings in your 247 00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:22,440 Speaker 1: monthly expenses, guess what.

Appreciate all of you hang out with us. 270 00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:38,400 Speaker 1: I want to give you a little bit of an update. 271 00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:42,600 Speaker 1: By the way, Tamar Hamlin has now been released from 272 00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:47,360 Speaker 1: Buffalo hospital. I don't know if it could happen, but 273 00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:51,360 Speaker 1: it's possible he could be on the field maybe on 274 00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:56,200 Speaker 1: Sunday for the Bill's Wildcard game against the Miami Dolphins. 275 00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:58,160 Speaker 1: We'll see exactly what ends up happening there. That is 276 00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:00,960 Speaker 1: a positive story. But Buck, maybe a little bit later 277 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:07,760 Speaker 1: in the program. We are continuing to see athletes in particular, 278 00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:10,680 Speaker 1: which is what I've paid a lot of attention to, collapsing. 279 00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:15,000 Speaker 1: It seems at rates that, frankly, I don't remember seeing before. 280 00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:20,080 Speaker 1: And I've been in athletics, covering sports, running throughoutkick for 281 00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:24,320 Speaker 1: coming up on twenty years now, which is of a 282 00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:26,760 Speaker 1: you know, dog years on the internet, considering I've been 283 00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:29,120 Speaker 1: on the internet the whole time, and I want to 284 00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:33,000 Speaker 1: mention this too because I just think it's such an 285 00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:37,080 Speaker 1: awful story and it's such a story that, frankly, we 286 00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:39,920 Speaker 1: didn't see a lot of. And this is from the 287 00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:46,600 Speaker 1: Air Force Academy where on Monday afternoon, a cadet collapsed 288 00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:53,400 Speaker 1: and died walking to class offensive alignment on the Air 289 00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:59,320 Speaker 1: Force team. Obviously, in general, if you are a cadet, 290 00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:02,600 Speaker 1: you're a mid shipman. If you are at the Army 291 00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:06,399 Speaker 1: at West Point Academy, you're typically in pretty good shape 292 00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:10,760 Speaker 1: buck right. So for a twenty one year old offensive 293 00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:16,320 Speaker 1: lineman his name was Hunter Brown, tremendous condolences to his 294 00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:19,399 Speaker 1: family out there. But I've been covering sports for a 295 00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:22,800 Speaker 1: long time, and I just do not remember seeing stories 296 00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:28,440 Speaker 1: about otherwise healthy athletes collapsing like we are seeing right now. 297 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:32,960 Speaker 1: The question becomes are we focusing on them and noticing 298 00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:35,800 Speaker 1: them more or are they statistically happening more we have 299 00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:39,320 Speaker 1: to get an answer to that. And the challenge that 300 00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:44,520 Speaker 1: we see right now is most of the media apparatus 301 00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:47,520 Speaker 1: has no interest in finding I don't answer that. They 302 00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:50,000 Speaker 1: just want to shout at you, shut up, don't ask 303 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:52,520 Speaker 1: about that. That's not going to work anymore. I agree, 304 00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:54,400 Speaker 1: and it's a conversation we need to have a little 305 00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 1: bit later, maybe a bigger discussion about that that needs 306 00:17:57,359 --> 00:17:59,440 Speaker 1: to be had. If you own a business, last several 307 00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:01,680 Speaker 1: years been anything but normal. If your business has five 308 00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:04,320 Speaker 1: or more employees, manage to make it through COVID, you 309 00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:06,879 Speaker 1: could be eligible to receive a payroll tax rebate of 310 00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:10,040 Speaker 1: up to twenty six thousand dollars per employee, not alone, 311 00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 1: no payback, just a refund of your taxes.

You're gonna start to be like, whoa, 332 00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:30,199 Speaker 1: we're actually talking about twenty twenty four already, because the answers, yes, 333 00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:32,879 Speaker 1: we will be not just us on the show, the 334 00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:34,919 Speaker 1: whole country will be thinking about it. It'll be happening. 335 00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:38,240 Speaker 1: So it feels like it's a ways away. It's gonna 336 00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:41,000 Speaker 1: come quickly. And what are the Republicans doing in the meantime? 337 00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:44,080 Speaker 1: How are they going to start to close the gap 338 00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:48,520 Speaker 1: that we saw with those midterm voters the last time 339 00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:51,919 Speaker 1: around in twenty twenty two. And what are we going 340 00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:54,760 Speaker 1: to do in the meantime to create some accountability and 341 00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:58,720 Speaker 1: to force the Democrats to have to answer publicly for 342 00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:01,879 Speaker 1: some of what they have been neewing. And Kevin McCarthy's 343 00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:05,320 Speaker 1: out there as we know, and here he is on 344 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:09,120 Speaker 1: the Biden classified documents issue. He asks a question which 345 00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:12,040 Speaker 1: Clay and I will answer. Blake Clip nine. This was 346 00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:16,239 Speaker 1: discovered before the last election. Just like the laptop. They 347 00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:18,560 Speaker 1: think they can allie the American public. They think they 348 00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:22,439 Speaker 1: can control the media, control companies to shut down if 349 00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:25,480 Speaker 1: one media company writes about it. They think they're above 350 00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 1: the law. Why weren't they rated? Why didn't they have 351 00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:31,520 Speaker 1: the FBI coming in? Why didn't he in sixty minutes 352 00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:33,399 Speaker 1: say well, I understand that, because I bet I have 353 00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:36,040 Speaker 1: the same problem. Did Barack Obama have some of this 354 00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:39,080 Speaker 1: when he was writing his book? Does Hillary Clinton have some? 355 00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:41,119 Speaker 1: And you know what, all those people have been in 356 00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 1: government for years. President Trump just ran for president. You 357 00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:47,240 Speaker 1: think you you think he went and moved his own 358 00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:50,800 Speaker 1: boxes and you know what, they were locked away. Bidens 359 00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:54,720 Speaker 1: were not So now, just to his question, why wasn't 360 00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:58,040 Speaker 1: he rated. I'm not saying he shouldn't ask the question, 361 00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:02,200 Speaker 1: but we know the answer to the question. It's they're Democrats. 362 00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:06,320 Speaker 1: Mary Arland runs a DOJ. They play hardball, they don't care. 363 00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:10,920 Speaker 1: Hypocrisy is joyous to them. The fact that they're in 364 00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:14,560 Speaker 1: a position to be hypocritical. Double standards. Everyone has to 365 00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:20,400 Speaker 1: remember this. Double standards make Libs feel superior. It doesn't 366 00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:23,320 Speaker 1: make them feel like they're frauds. It doesn't make them 367 00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:26,320 Speaker 1: feel like they're banning their principles. Play because they like 368 00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:29,320 Speaker 1: to be in a position to have different rules, because 369 00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:32,879 Speaker 1: they think they're better than the other people, meaning Republicans 370 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:35,880 Speaker 1: in this case, who have to live by the rules. Yeah, 371 00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:39,400 Speaker 1: and here's where I would distinguish a little bit. I'm 372 00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:44,280 Speaker 1: not surprised that politicians bend whatever precedent they can in 373 00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:48,600 Speaker 1: order to become on the right side of an issue. Right. 374 00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:51,639 Speaker 1: I think many of you out there listening or nodding along, 375 00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:54,920 Speaker 1: and you're like, we typically don't think of politicians as 376 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:59,240 Speaker 1: having steel spines and being willing to stand behind a 377 00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:03,440 Speaker 1: principle over the political ramifications of that principle. And I'll 378 00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:06,080 Speaker 1: go back in time to when I was a young 379 00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:10,640 Speaker 1: guy at George Washington University buck back before the Washington 380 00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:15,119 Speaker 1: Post lost its mind. They had really good expose's on 381 00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 1: what the people were saying when the Nixon investigation was 382 00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:26,120 Speaker 1: going on compared to the Clinton investigation for impeachment, because 383 00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:30,520 Speaker 1: remember back then, impeachment was very rare and it was 384 00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:34,560 Speaker 1: diametrically opposite. They were literally the politicians who had been 385 00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:37,359 Speaker 1: in office that long, depending on their politics, were saying 386 00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:41,639 Speaker 1: the exact opposite for Clinton as compared to Nixon. The 387 00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:43,680 Speaker 1: reason why I bring that up is I think many 388 00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:46,920 Speaker 1: people are not surprised that politicians are have a loose 389 00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:50,880 Speaker 1: relationship with the truth. The ones that I think deserved 390 00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:54,520 Speaker 1: to be raked over the coals. Here are all of 391 00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:58,280 Speaker 1: those media members at the New York Times, at the 392 00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:02,160 Speaker 1: Washington Post, at ms NBC, and at CNN who claim 393 00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:05,320 Speaker 1: that they are standing up for democracy and wag their 394 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:09,200 Speaker 1: fingers and lecture all of us in relation to the 395 00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:14,680 Speaker 1: Trump Marilago documents, and then completely bend over backwards to 396 00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:18,359 Speaker 1: defend Biden. Because what this demonstrates is we do not 397 00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:21,320 Speaker 1: have actual journalists anymore in this school. I say, do 398 00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:23,560 Speaker 1: you expect more from them, though. I mean, this is 399 00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:26,880 Speaker 1: when they are right. I think when you argue, hey, 400 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:33,560 Speaker 1: I'm an unbiased knight errant out there defending democracy. When 401 00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:37,200 Speaker 1: you put democracy dyes in darkness at the top of 402 00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:41,120 Speaker 1: your fricking newspaper like the Washington Post did, and then 403 00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:45,679 Speaker 1: you blatantly are an advocate for one side, those are 404 00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:48,840 Speaker 1: the people that I believe need to be ripped to shreds. 405 00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:56,720 Speaker 1: Well here, for example, since we're talking about principles, democracy, integrity, 406 00:23:57,480 --> 00:24:02,760 Speaker 1: intrepid journalism, joy by horror over at the View laid 407 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:05,280 Speaker 1: it out for everybody, which is basically this woman on 408 00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:08,359 Speaker 1: daily television. Maybe the dumbest person I should say to 409 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:12,760 Speaker 1: Trump is really bad and Biden is really good. And yeah, 410 00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:16,879 Speaker 1: it's the difference. Playclip three. There's differences and what happened. Yes, Well, 411 00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:18,920 Speaker 1: we all know that Trump is a lawyer and a thief, 412 00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:24,080 Speaker 1: you know, so it's not that big a jump to 413 00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:26,920 Speaker 1: say that he obstructed and he lied. We don't think 414 00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:28,720 Speaker 1: that Biden is a lawyer and a thief, so we 415 00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:30,720 Speaker 1: give them the benefit of the doubt. That's probably what's 416 00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:32,879 Speaker 1: going on. But well, I think also is going on 417 00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:35,200 Speaker 1: no matter what the truth of it, is they will 418 00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:38,720 Speaker 1: spin it. Bubblehead and Marjorie's tailor and that crowd mat gates. 419 00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:40,760 Speaker 1: You think they're not going to spin this. That is 420 00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:44,120 Speaker 1: just as bad as Trump. The lying has been so invasive, 421 00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:48,600 Speaker 1: so ubiquitous, that no one will believe the truth anymore. 422 00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:50,399 Speaker 1: And that that you can put that at the at 423 00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:53,680 Speaker 1: the feet of Donald Trump, who started the lying. It's 424 00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:56,600 Speaker 1: so hard to know with their clay whether it's mostly 425 00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:59,560 Speaker 1: dumb or mostly dishonest. I know it's a combination of both. 426 00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:01,920 Speaker 1: But when she's speaking about something like this, is she 427 00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:07,120 Speaker 1: really incapable of sifting through the facts and the reality 428 00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:10,399 Speaker 1: to the point where she'd say something so asinine? I 429 00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:13,880 Speaker 1: don't know. Biden is actually one of the biggest liars 430 00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:17,080 Speaker 1: in American political history. I mean, you can go through 431 00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:22,040 Speaker 1: and itemize blatant and indefensible. Wise, I'll give you he 432 00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:26,400 Speaker 1: had to give up a presidential campaign, yes for lying. Yes. 433 00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:30,200 Speaker 1: And also, and I can't believe this isn't a bigger story. 434 00:25:31,080 --> 00:25:37,040 Speaker 1: He has consistently lied and said when his wife's first 435 00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:41,040 Speaker 1: wife's car accident occurred, and he said that the opposing 436 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:45,199 Speaker 1: driver was drunk driver, which is a horrible, horrible thing 437 00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:48,200 Speaker 1: to do, and that driver's family has been saying it 438 00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:52,680 Speaker 1: for years. Biden slanders that person. There is zero evidence 439 00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:55,600 Speaker 1: that it was a drunk driver. In fact, the understanding 440 00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:59,000 Speaker 1: is that you know, his wife tragically went through a 441 00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:02,040 Speaker 1: red light, yes, or went through a stop sign. Rather, 442 00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:04,920 Speaker 1: there is no evidence whatsoever that the other driver was 443 00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:07,080 Speaker 1: at fault. Can you imagine going around, if you're Joe 444 00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:11,240 Speaker 1: Biden and basically accusing somebody else of involuntary manslaughter because 445 00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:14,160 Speaker 1: it gets more sympathy for you on the campaign trail. 446 00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:17,000 Speaker 1: That's who Joe Biden is. Yes, And that was before 447 00:26:17,080 --> 00:26:20,680 Speaker 1: he lost his mental faculties. So I understand there's lots 448 00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:23,360 Speaker 1: of things that he lies about every day when he talks. Now, 449 00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:26,800 Speaker 1: I actually think a lot of that is in competence. 450 00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:29,760 Speaker 1: But the idea that you would say, oh, I believe 451 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:34,240 Speaker 1: Joe Biden because he's been honest, is, to your point, 452 00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:37,160 Speaker 1: a lie in and of itself. And here's another question 453 00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:39,240 Speaker 1: that I'm not hearing a lot of people ask, regarding 454 00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:43,960 Speaker 1: these classified documents from Joe Biden, where were they before 455 00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:48,840 Speaker 1: they ended up at this office in Washington, DC. In 456 00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:52,840 Speaker 1: other words, he left the White House or the Vice 457 00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:58,040 Speaker 1: President's office in twenty seventeen. He says that these were 458 00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:00,560 Speaker 1: in that office in twenty eighteen. Right, I think that's 459 00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:04,359 Speaker 1: when they opened this office that that associated with the 460 00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:08,679 Speaker 1: University of Pennsylvania and Washington, DC. Theoretically he had them 461 00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:11,719 Speaker 1: at his house or at his beach house in between. Right. 462 00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:18,359 Speaker 1: You're thinking about this like a person who wants to 463 00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:21,840 Speaker 1: get the full facts and his storyline, the timeline laid out. 464 00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:24,840 Speaker 1: I would just throw out there as context for all 465 00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:27,920 Speaker 1: of this, we literally have a laptop full of his 466 00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:30,359 Speaker 1: son talking about how he's gonna give this guy money 467 00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:34,160 Speaker 1: from corrupt oligarchs and the Chinese Communist Party. He's dancing 468 00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:36,560 Speaker 1: around with the legal firearms because he was a drug addict, 469 00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:38,240 Speaker 1: and he's got a ball around his neck, and he's 470 00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:42,840 Speaker 1: got strippers and prostitutes. He taking videos. Nothing Clay. Three years, 471 00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:46,000 Speaker 1: nothing has happened. But I would just say this four 472 00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:48,560 Speaker 1: Republicans out there, because I think Kevin McCarthy, the clip 473 00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:51,160 Speaker 1: that you played is a good one. Buck. I would 474 00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:53,320 Speaker 1: just say because a lot of the staffs listen to us, 475 00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:57,280 Speaker 1: a lot of the congressional members and senators and everything else. 476 00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:03,000 Speaker 1: The chain of where the classified documents went and where 477 00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:06,560 Speaker 1: they have been is important, if only for this reason. 478 00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:11,240 Speaker 1: If there were classified documents at his beach house, or 479 00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:16,960 Speaker 1: at at his residence or in prior offices, there is 480 00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:21,399 Speaker 1: a clear necessity, based on the precedent set by the 481 00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:25,680 Speaker 1: Donald Trump incident, that there should be a raid and 482 00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:30,400 Speaker 1: a search of his prior homes, because who's to say 483 00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:33,840 Speaker 1: that these documents that ended up in the office in Washington, 484 00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:38,160 Speaker 1: DC might not have been split apart from other documents 485 00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:42,720 Speaker 1: that remained in his home far less under seal. Right, 486 00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:47,640 Speaker 1: So the chain of where this was, the chain of evidence, 487 00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:51,880 Speaker 1: we don't even know, Like that's a very basic part 488 00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:54,640 Speaker 1: of this investigation. I think it's questions that deserve to 489 00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:58,080 Speaker 1: be raised. Where did these documents that are classified that 490 00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:01,240 Speaker 1: he acknowledges should not have been in his possession?

Welcome back in Clay Travis Buck Sexton show. 529 00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:14,400 Speaker 1: All right, Buck, you're getting married next month. Congratulations to 530 00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:17,600 Speaker 1: you and Carrie. Obviously in advance, the planning of a 531 00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:21,920 Speaker 1: wedding can be a challenge. The early days of marriage 532 00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:25,440 Speaker 1: can certainly be a challenge. My wife, who I've been 533 00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:29,840 Speaker 1: married to for eighteen years now, was listening to the 534 00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:34,360 Speaker 1: podcast yesterday and this morning she came in and you 535 00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:36,720 Speaker 1: just heard her off air a little bit ago. Buck. 536 00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:40,440 Speaker 1: She said, you need to tell Buck right now that 537 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:43,360 Speaker 1: all of the marriage advice you give him is a disaster, 538 00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:47,600 Speaker 1: and that the only reason we are still married is because, 539 00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:52,160 Speaker 1: in her words, she's a saint, and so I disagree. Right, 540 00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:55,239 Speaker 1: just putting it out there, I think there's very few 541 00:31:55,280 --> 00:31:57,280 Speaker 1: people in the world better to be married too than me. 542 00:31:57,760 --> 00:32:01,680 Speaker 1: From my own humble perspective, she thinks that I am 543 00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:05,000 Speaker 1: incredibly difficult to be married too, and she is afraid, Buck, 544 00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:07,400 Speaker 1: that I am leading you down a path of disaster. 545 00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:11,520 Speaker 1: So I just want to give full disclosure. My wife 546 00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:14,480 Speaker 1: is suggesting that in your early days of marriage, she 547 00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:17,760 Speaker 1: heard me giving you marriage advice yesterday or the day before. 548 00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:20,280 Speaker 1: You need to be very careful, she says, in actually 549 00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:22,800 Speaker 1: listening to what I have to say about marriage, and 550 00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:27,280 Speaker 1: yet here you are married happily for how many years? 551 00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:32,600 Speaker 1: With three kids? Eight going on nineteen. Now, wow, young man, 552 00:32:32,760 --> 00:32:35,280 Speaker 1: that I am been married since I was twenty five 553 00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:39,120 Speaker 1: years old going on forty three. Last night, by the 554 00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:42,440 Speaker 1: way I was on with Jesse Waters, you should have 555 00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:45,520 Speaker 1: seen how crestfallen he was Buck to realize that I 556 00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:48,720 Speaker 1: was younger than him, Like he was like, well you 557 00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:52,160 Speaker 1: look way older, which may well be true, but he 558 00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:55,320 Speaker 1: It turns out Jesse Waters is also saving America. He's 559 00:32:55,360 --> 00:32:59,280 Speaker 1: gen X. We're basically the same name. So much you 560 00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:05,360 Speaker 1: and water this gen X connection for American excellence while 561 00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:08,760 Speaker 1: all you millennials and gen Z losers out there try 562 00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:11,520 Speaker 1: to destroy everything that those of us who love the 563 00:33:11,600 --> 00:33:14,280 Speaker 1: country have built. You know, I'm sorry that we just 564 00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:18,320 Speaker 1: had to come up with the greatest TV shows, the 565 00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:22,320 Speaker 1: greatest music, and the greatest era of America probably ever 566 00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:25,120 Speaker 1: in our youth, which was the nineties, or I guess 567 00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:29,520 Speaker 1: theties to the nineties. As a millennial, well that's see, 568 00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:31,760 Speaker 1: I'm right on the edge everybody, because I'm I'm a 569 00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:35,080 Speaker 1: graybeard millennial. I'm as old. I am as old as 570 00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:37,720 Speaker 1: you can possibly be and still be a millennial. So 571 00:33:37,800 --> 00:33:40,800 Speaker 1: I like to think that I spend multiple generations. Also, 572 00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:42,880 Speaker 1: is this was all this generation stuff just like a 573 00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:47,080 Speaker 1: marketing ploy? Is that it's crazy because I'm eight months 574 00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:49,320 Speaker 1: into the gen X, you know, So in other words, 575 00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:51,640 Speaker 1: if I'd been born eight months later, like my sister 576 00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:56,040 Speaker 1: is a millennial and I am gen X like that 577 00:33:56,280 --> 00:33:59,240 Speaker 1: that it seems if you are, unless I know some 578 00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:01,400 Speaker 1: of you out there may have siblings that you're twenty 579 00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:04,080 Speaker 1: years difference in age, then I can certainly understand how 580 00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:05,640 Speaker 1: that would be. But when you're like a year or 581 00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:08,920 Speaker 1: two different than your sibling. Like your older brother is 582 00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:11,600 Speaker 1: with me in gen X, right, doesn't he my age? Yeah, 583 00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:15,600 Speaker 1: so you grew up with a gen X and then 584 00:34:15,640 --> 00:34:17,680 Speaker 1: you have joined in the millennial tribe, and I just 585 00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:19,799 Speaker 1: I just wish you hadn't destroyed everything. That's that's all 586 00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:21,880 Speaker 1: I'm saying, Dolly, millennials. I don't know why you think 587 00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:23,759 Speaker 1: you're gonna put this all on us, because gen Z, 588 00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:26,960 Speaker 1: as we all understand they're the worst, is riddled with 589 00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:34,640 Speaker 1: commies and they're unfortunately being brainwashed at unforeseen un you know, 590 00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:39,960 Speaker 1: unprecedented speeds because of social media and TikTok and all 591 00:34:39,960 --> 00:34:41,160 Speaker 1: the rest of it. But that's why the Clay and 592 00:34:41,200 --> 00:34:46,759 Speaker 1: Buck Show exists to un brainwashed the brainwashed of gen Z. All. 593 00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:50,080 Speaker 1: We have get your get your super woke college age, 594 00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:54,719 Speaker 1: you know, grand grandson, daughter, whatever the listeners from Clay 595 00:34:54,800 --> 00:34:57,960 Speaker 1: and Buck, because those commies are gonna get crushed here 596 00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:01,360 Speaker 1: on this show.

You know how I know I'm 598 00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:07,520 Speaker 1: getting older, Buck, m Well, there's a lot of reasons, 599 00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:10,319 Speaker 1: but that didn't hurt before. I mean, first of all, 600 00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:11,719 Speaker 1: the fact that I have a kid who's gonna be 601 00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:13,759 Speaker 1: in college in three years is a sign that I'm 602 00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:17,239 Speaker 1: getting older.
