1
00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:14,880
Speaker 1: You are entering the freedom hunt. How the left seeks

2
00:00:14,920 --> 00:00:19,119
Speaker 1: to criminalize political speech. Facebook was used to plan the

3
00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:24,640
Speaker 1: Capitol Hill riot, Amazon shutdown parlor because of Trump not violence,

4
00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:29,360
Speaker 1: and the militarized inauguration. Plus Jake Tapper questions, a veteran

5
00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:34,320
Speaker 1: amputeam member of Congress's patriotism. This is the Buck sex

6
00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:37,360
Speaker 1: And Show, where the mission or mission is to decode

7
00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:43,199
Speaker 1: what really matters with assionable intelligence. Make no mistake a

8
00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:51,280
Speaker 1: great American. Again, the Buck Sexon show begins, He's a

9
00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:58,920
Speaker 1: great guy. No, it was never really about stopping violence

10
00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:01,800
Speaker 1: from the big tech companies and from the left and

11
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:06,000
Speaker 1: the Democrats. We know that because they didn't want to

12
00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:08,720
Speaker 1: shut down violence for months when their side was doing it.

13
00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:11,880
Speaker 1: We know that political violence was something the left was

14
00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:15,319
Speaker 1: willing to embrace. It was about justice, they said, That's

15
00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:19,320
Speaker 1: what they told us. And now when there is an

16
00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:23,760
Speaker 1: outburst of reprehensible political violence that comes ideologically from the

17
00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:27,360
Speaker 1: right in this Capitol Hill riot, they try to leverage

18
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:31,240
Speaker 1: this for maximum political gain. The best way to get

19
00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:33,479
Speaker 1: all of this to stop, the best way to bring

20
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:36,480
Speaker 1: us together would be, of course, to be fair minded

21
00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:41,119
Speaker 1: about this, to be honest, and not to immediately seek

22
00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:44,800
Speaker 1: to use this to bash the other side as though

23
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:48,280
Speaker 1: they're all domestic terrorists, and that's what they're doing. That

24
00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:52,200
Speaker 1: is what you see happening right now. The precedent that

25
00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:57,360
Speaker 1: was set with yesterday's impeachment is awful because it all

26
00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:00,440
Speaker 1: rested on a false premise. If they had teach the

27
00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:06,760
Speaker 1: President of the United States for misleading the American people

28
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:09,120
Speaker 1: about what he could prove in the election, if they

29
00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:11,480
Speaker 1: were going to say that it was just unpresidential to

30
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 1: do that, that's their opinion, and they would be on

31
00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:19,400
Speaker 1: much firmer ground. Although would that rise to a high

32
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:24,400
Speaker 1: crime and misdemeanor. No, But instead what they did was

33
00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:29,160
Speaker 1: say it is a direct incitement to insurrection that President

34
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:31,560
Speaker 1: Trump is guilty of. It's his fault, you see, he

35
00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:36,840
Speaker 1: called for this, and then they use that to ram

36
00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:41,440
Speaker 1: through an impeachment that really ignored due process, which is

37
00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:46,359
Speaker 1: supposed to exist even in Congress, ignored historical precedent, and

38
00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:48,760
Speaker 1: was all about one thing, and one thing only, creating

39
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 1: a one party state in America, the destruction of the

40
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:56,040
Speaker 1: Republican Party. It's always very amusing when Democrats say that

41
00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:58,919
Speaker 1: they want to see Republicans speak truth to their own

42
00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:02,600
Speaker 1: side and reform form when they really just want the collapse.

43
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:06,959
Speaker 1: And they understand that if the Republican elites and elected

44
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:11,359
Speaker 1: officials cave in to the Democrat mob on this one

45
00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:15,679
Speaker 1: and cast out Trump entirely, try to erase his legacy

46
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:19,720
Speaker 1: and humiliate not just him but also his supporters, it

47
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 1: will be a disaster for the Republican Party. This was

48
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:27,639
Speaker 1: all based on a lie. How do we know it's

49
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:31,359
Speaker 1: a lie that Trump incited an insurrection. It's obviously true.

50
00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:34,160
Speaker 1: There was a riot. It's obviously true. It was criminal

51
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:37,440
Speaker 1: and wrong what happened in the Capitol Building. We've already

52
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 1: said that. I'm not going to just keep repeating it

53
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:46,160
Speaker 1: endlessly so that the left wing, you know, destructors of

54
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:49,720
Speaker 1: conservative media, can't just get away with whatever they want.

55
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,440
Speaker 1: Right that's we're trying to prevent them from because right

56
00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:54,200
Speaker 1: now they're on a witch on they want to ruin

57
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:57,520
Speaker 1: people on our side. But I have condemned it. I

58
00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 1: condemned it right away, and it was you know that, okay,

59
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:05,280
Speaker 1: But they're claiming that Trump was the reason for this. Now,

60
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:09,280
Speaker 1: part of the problem they have is what Trump actually said.

61
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:14,440
Speaker 1: Let's be very clear. Play clip three and only count

62
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:20,680
Speaker 1: the electors who have been lawfully slated, lawfully slated. I

63
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:23,400
Speaker 1: know that everyone here will soon be marching over to

64
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:29,520
Speaker 1: the Capitol Building to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard.

65
00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:35,000
Speaker 1: Today we will see whether Republicans stand strong for integrity

66
00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:39,120
Speaker 1: of our elections, but whether or not they stand strong

67
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:44,960
Speaker 1: for a country peacefully and patriotically have your voices heard.

68
00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:50,039
Speaker 1: If that can be considered an incitement to violence, to

69
00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:54,440
Speaker 1: mob violence for which you will be held legally responsible,

70
00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:56,479
Speaker 1: which is what the Democrats are doing here. That's what

71
00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:59,640
Speaker 1: they're saying. They will use a process of government to

72
00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:02,440
Speaker 1: go after you, and they're even talking about possible criminal

73
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:06,560
Speaker 1: charges against Trump for this. If go peacefully speak your

74
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,720
Speaker 1: mind is now a criminal act. Political speech in this

75
00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:16,120
Speaker 1: country is over on the conservative side. We're done because

76
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:19,440
Speaker 1: they'll just say anything that they don't like. Anytime there's

77
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:22,040
Speaker 1: a rhetorical flourish, we say we must stand up and

78
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:25,760
Speaker 1: fight for our liberties. Oh, that's a call to violence,

79
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:29,360
Speaker 1: he said, fight. Oh you think that's extreme, You think

80
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:32,680
Speaker 1: they won't do it. We saw this coming. You should

81
00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:37,159
Speaker 1: remember that for years the left was running a propaganda campaign.

82
00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:39,960
Speaker 1: It started on the college campuses, then it filtered into

83
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 1: the rest of the most woke outposts in society, and

84
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:47,560
Speaker 1: now it's mainstream. Now it's corporate culture. Now it's all

85
00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:52,480
Speaker 1: over the place. Speech equals violence. That was the big

86
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:55,680
Speaker 1: change you saw the beginning of the Trump administration from

87
00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:59,040
Speaker 1: the left. They were just openly saying that your words

88
00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:02,960
Speaker 1: that I don't like are the equivalent of violence because

89
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:06,280
Speaker 1: it makes me feel sad or unsafe, or less than

90
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:10,680
Speaker 1: or whatever. Therefore, not only if speech equals violence, can

91
00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:13,320
Speaker 1: the government shut it down? And as we know, the

92
00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:16,360
Speaker 1: only speech that equals violence is conservative. According to the left,

93
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:19,559
Speaker 1: that's the way this game works. Not only does that happen,

94
00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:23,520
Speaker 1: but if they use force to shut you down, they're

95
00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:26,920
Speaker 1: justified in doing so. This is how anti fuck came about.

96
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:30,760
Speaker 1: Remember the origins, they were showing up at college campuses,

97
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:35,480
Speaker 1: threatening conservative speakers, threatening people that showed up to hear

98
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:39,600
Speaker 1: conservative speakers, and many of us said, this is a

99
00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:43,080
Speaker 1: terrible harbinger of things to come. And now we see

100
00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:44,520
Speaker 1: this is all the way at the top of the

101
00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:48,320
Speaker 1: Democrat party. Say things that they don't like, and they

102
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:52,840
Speaker 1: will find a way to use the force of government

103
00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:55,479
Speaker 1: even to shut you down. This is the death of

104
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:59,120
Speaker 1: free speech if this continues. And that's exactly the plan.

105
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:02,000
Speaker 1: Democrats think they have all the answers and there's no

106
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:05,479
Speaker 1: need for robust debate or exchange of ideas because their

107
00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:10,640
Speaker 1: ideas are right and your ideas are violence. This is

108
00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:15,240
Speaker 1: what they really think. This is their actual belief, and

109
00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:22,360
Speaker 1: they are using this. They're taking action on this idea.

110
00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:25,960
Speaker 1: And now with greater information about what really happened on

111
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:30,000
Speaker 1: Capitol Hills, we see more of the backstory, both in

112
00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:35,000
Speaker 1: preparation for it and the social media giants actions around it.

113
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:38,760
Speaker 1: A lot of stuff that does not support the overall

114
00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:42,560
Speaker 1: Democrat narrative. Here. What they impeach the president for yesterday

115
00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:46,239
Speaker 1: was essentially Trump called for an insurrection in the Capitol.

116
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:49,600
Speaker 1: That is a lie. That's not true. He didn't do that,

117
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:52,840
Speaker 1: And there are many reasons you could point to. I

118
00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:56,680
Speaker 1: played the actual pertinent audio of what he said, should

119
00:07:56,680 --> 00:08:00,600
Speaker 1: happen peacefully. If someone says I call for non violence,

120
00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:05,600
Speaker 1: and then one of that person's adherents says, oh, they

121
00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:07,720
Speaker 1: said non violence, but I'm going to be violent. Is

122
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:10,880
Speaker 1: it that person's fault? Well, only if you're a Republican,

123
00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:14,520
Speaker 1: only if you're a conservative. This was planned for weeks

124
00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:18,200
Speaker 1: in advance. That's now clear. There were people who were

125
00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:21,400
Speaker 1: gathering together online and this was what they wanted to do.

126
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:25,880
Speaker 1: So if that's the case, and it is, how can

127
00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:29,640
Speaker 1: Donald Trump be guilty of incitement when there are preparations

128
00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:34,439
Speaker 1: being made by people entirely independent of Trump and that

129
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:38,640
Speaker 1: that predated the speech in which he called for non

130
00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:43,040
Speaker 1: violence anyway, Right, this is not to excuse all the

131
00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:45,920
Speaker 1: stuff said about the election at all. I've got a

132
00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:50,600
Speaker 1: problem with that. I think we were it was exaggerated

133
00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:53,719
Speaker 1: to us, the information that they were going to be

134
00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:56,760
Speaker 1: able to present. It was exaggerated. The likelihood. Now I

135
00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:58,880
Speaker 1: always thought it was a very small likelihood, as you know,

136
00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:03,880
Speaker 1: but it was adgerated on purpose to Trump voters that

137
00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:06,160
Speaker 1: there was still a real hope here that the election

138
00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:09,560
Speaker 1: was going to go his way. And that's that's actual.

139
00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:12,320
Speaker 1: There should be some political accountability for that. That was wrong.

140
00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:16,040
Speaker 1: But this incitement of violence stuff and attacking the capital

141
00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:20,400
Speaker 1: because of Trump, that's just not fair. It's not true.

142
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:26,640
Speaker 1: But it's not enough, you see, it's not enough to

143
00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:30,000
Speaker 1: point out what was said about the election afterwards that's

144
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:35,320
Speaker 1: in retrospect, that was inaccurate, or it was just an

145
00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:38,679
Speaker 1: out and outlie because Democrats lied about the twenty sixteen

146
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:40,959
Speaker 1: election for four years. So we'll be able to dismiss

147
00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:43,840
Speaker 1: that very very quickly. A lot of people just say, well,

148
00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:46,599
Speaker 1: you know, Nancy Pelosi claimed the election was hijacked in

149
00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:50,520
Speaker 1: the beginning of twenty seventeen, So what what's that all about.

150
00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:53,360
Speaker 1: Ah No, they have to make it seem as though

151
00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:57,000
Speaker 1: Trump is the leader of a domestic terrorist organization. That's

152
00:09:57,000 --> 00:10:03,520
Speaker 1: what they're openly stating now. And that's because it gives

153
00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:08,680
Speaker 1: them license not only to completely malign all of his supporters,

154
00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:10,480
Speaker 1: which they just get joy from. I mean they like.

155
00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:15,439
Speaker 1: Hating Trump supporters is something that gives great joy to

156
00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:22,040
Speaker 1: the left, to know, deriding them, humiliating them. This Unfortunately

157
00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:26,120
Speaker 1: for America, the Democrat Party really really has a culture

158
00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:30,840
Speaker 1: of looking down on all Trump supporters. That's just the

159
00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:33,920
Speaker 1: way it is. Voters. I mean, anybody, anybody you vote

160
00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:36,599
Speaker 1: for Trump, You're a bad person. They've they've adopted it.

161
00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:38,839
Speaker 1: I don't think everybody votes for Biden's a bad person.

162
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:42,560
Speaker 1: That's crazy. I think Joe Biden's a clown. And I

163
00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:44,520
Speaker 1: think we're going to see just what a joke this

164
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:47,559
Speaker 1: whole presidency is when he's actually in charge. But then

165
00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:52,000
Speaker 1: Kamala will take over him. We all know. But here's

166
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:56,240
Speaker 1: the other issue they've got. The social media companies all

167
00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:59,000
Speaker 1: acted against Trump because they said he was the cause

168
00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:02,400
Speaker 1: of this insurrection. Well, first of all, it was a riot.

169
00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 1: To call it an insurrection is also is also going

170
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:11,040
Speaker 1: beyond a fair a fair view of the facts here.

171
00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:13,000
Speaker 1: It was absolutely a right and it was criminal. It

172
00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:16,959
Speaker 1: was wrong, and we've said that. But they really thought

173
00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:19,960
Speaker 1: what they were going to overtake the Capitol building and

174
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,240
Speaker 1: hold it. I mean, that's what a coup would be.

175
00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:26,480
Speaker 1: That was the plan. I mean, I haven't seen any

176
00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:29,800
Speaker 1: evidence to suggest that. I've certainly seen there are people

177
00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:32,720
Speaker 1: that were running around taking selfies, and there were people

178
00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:36,960
Speaker 1: that were attacking police officers, which is something that you

179
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:41,160
Speaker 1: can't do. It's a crime, you can't do that. But

180
00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:44,640
Speaker 1: the social media companies shut Trump down because they said

181
00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:47,760
Speaker 1: that he was a threat of violence. The Democrats then

182
00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:51,600
Speaker 1: used this premise that Trump was himself a threat of

183
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:57,360
Speaker 1: violence to d platform him. Well, Trump is still in office,

184
00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:01,880
Speaker 1: and the same platforms where most of the planning for

185
00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:06,280
Speaker 1: the riot occurred are very much still in business. Because

186
00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:09,720
Speaker 1: guess what, this won't be a surprise to you. It

187
00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:14,720
Speaker 1: wasn't parlor where most of the actual riot planning occurred.

188
00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:19,880
Speaker 1: According to left wing analysts of this now in the media. Oh,

189
00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:24,040
Speaker 1: it was happening somewhere else on the internet, a very wealthy,

190
00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:29,840
Speaker 1: very very powerful company. In fact, you're in the freedom

191
00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:36,880
Speaker 1: of This is the Buck Sex and Show podcast. As

192
00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:40,600
Speaker 1: I have said, the incursion of the US capital struck

193
00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:44,160
Speaker 1: at the very heart of our republic. It angered and

194
00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:50,360
Speaker 1: appalled millions of Americans across the political spectrum. I want

195
00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:55,640
Speaker 1: to be very clear, I unequivocally condemned the violence that

196
00:12:55,760 --> 00:13:00,480
Speaker 1: we saw last week. Violence and vandalism have absolutely no

197
00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:03,720
Speaker 1: place in our country and no place in our movement.

198
00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:07,880
Speaker 1: Making America great again has always been about defending the

199
00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:11,839
Speaker 1: rule of law, supporting the men and women of law enforcement,

200
00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:17,480
Speaker 1: and upholding our nation's most sacred traditions and values. Mob

201
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:21,839
Speaker 1: violence goes against everything I believe in and everything our

202
00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:27,880
Speaker 1: movement stands for. There's President Trump saying that he condemns

203
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,959
Speaker 1: all of the illegal activity the riot at the Capitol,

204
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:33,199
Speaker 1: all of it, and that it goes outside of, or

205
00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:38,240
Speaker 1: goes against and is outside of his movement. Entirely. Maybe

206
00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:40,200
Speaker 1: the people that were saying that I was a traitor

207
00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:43,120
Speaker 1: to Trump because I said right away the Capitol Hill

208
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:45,760
Speaker 1: riot was a disaster and not what Mago was about.

209
00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:48,880
Speaker 1: I don't know. I haven't gotten any apologies from them yet,

210
00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:51,520
Speaker 1: not that I matter, It doesn't matter. But I'm just saying,

211
00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:56,839
Speaker 1: you know, we all have to be clear eyed about this.

212
00:13:56,960 --> 00:14:00,959
Speaker 1: We have to know what is true. And people out

213
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:03,800
Speaker 1: there who were telling you the day of oh, this

214
00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:08,120
Speaker 1: is not something that's terrible, they were pandering and they

215
00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:10,440
Speaker 1: were lying, and they have bad judgment. I mean talking

216
00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:12,480
Speaker 1: to people in the media, because there were some of them,

217
00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:15,280
Speaker 1: there were some a handful, and then I think even

218
00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:18,800
Speaker 1: they backed off. But that's the President saying that this

219
00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,200
Speaker 1: is not something that he would ever condone. He does

220
00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:23,800
Speaker 1: not want political violence. It's against what he stands for.

221
00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:26,840
Speaker 1: He gave an excellent speech, had to release it on

222
00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:32,680
Speaker 1: the White House Official White House Official Twitter page instead

223
00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:36,000
Speaker 1: of the real Donald Trump one because it no longer exists.

224
00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:39,440
Speaker 1: And now why is that Donald Trump was kicked off

225
00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:43,920
Speaker 1: of Twitter? What's the reasoning given by Jack Dorsey, the CEO.

226
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:45,800
Speaker 1: Why they do this because they said that he was

227
00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:52,200
Speaker 1: a risk of violence but the Iranian revolutionary regime is

228
00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:56,240
Speaker 1: still able to have public pronouncements. There's all kinds of

229
00:14:56,280 --> 00:15:00,800
Speaker 1: awful people on Twitter that call for violence and genocide

230
00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:03,320
Speaker 1: and terrible things. They don't lose their accounts, so we

231
00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:08,760
Speaker 1: know the standard is applied entirely unevenly. A standard is

232
00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:11,960
Speaker 1: used to silence conservatives and to silence Trump most of all.

233
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:16,920
Speaker 1: But there's something else. You know. They shut down Parlor,

234
00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:18,880
Speaker 1: and we had Dan Bongino want to talk about that.

235
00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:22,360
Speaker 1: They shut down Parlor because they claimed that that's where

236
00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:26,280
Speaker 1: the Capitol Hill riot was being planned and there was

237
00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:29,720
Speaker 1: all this ugly stuff on there. Well, that's a lie

238
00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:35,400
Speaker 1: insofar as there's no more on Parlor than there is

239
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:40,440
Speaker 1: on Facebook. In fact, most of the violence and awful

240
00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:43,920
Speaker 1: stuff that was being shared online about the Capitol Hill

241
00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:48,760
Speaker 1: riot was wait for it, on Facebook. They've been analyzing

242
00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:52,120
Speaker 1: this looking at it. Facebook was because it has a

243
00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:54,880
Speaker 1: much larger user base. I said this as soon as

244
00:15:54,920 --> 00:16:00,720
Speaker 1: this happened. Is there's crazy stuff on Facebook all the time. Ah.

245
00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:05,880
Speaker 1: But Amazon Web Services Amazon crushed Parlor And did you

246
00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:13,480
Speaker 1: know that Parlor was actually working with Amazon and trying

247
00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:16,920
Speaker 1: to take action to improve its moderation they're saying, yes,

248
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:20,040
Speaker 1: we want to get rid of bad content. We want

249
00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:24,360
Speaker 1: to get rid of violent and you know, evil racist

250
00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:28,040
Speaker 1: stuff on Parlor, the same way that there's that terrible

251
00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:31,160
Speaker 1: stuff on all the social media platforms. But Parlor doesn't

252
00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:34,640
Speaker 1: have quite the resources. So they were getting behind it,

253
00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:37,400
Speaker 1: they were working to be better on it. They have

254
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:41,480
Speaker 1: terms of service and they have a rule of law standard.

255
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:46,200
Speaker 1: But they crushed Parlor. It didn't crush Twitter. It didn't

256
00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:51,040
Speaker 1: shut down Facebook obviously. Now let's let's look at this

257
00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:56,360
Speaker 1: for a second. Here is what is the new standard

258
00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:59,200
Speaker 1: that has been set up. It is now established that

259
00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:04,160
Speaker 1: Facebook book was the place that allowed the Capitol Hill

260
00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:08,080
Speaker 1: riot to be planned more so than any other. Well,

261
00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:10,919
Speaker 1: given what we've been told in recent days, that means

262
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:16,640
Speaker 1: that Amazon and Google and you name it need to ambush,

263
00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:22,320
Speaker 1: take down and destroy Facebook. It's a question of life

264
00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:25,760
Speaker 1: and death. It's a question of our democracy and preventing

265
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:30,119
Speaker 1: political violence. Awful things were planned on Facebook. So I

266
00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:36,400
Speaker 1: guess those really moral and ethical major tech companies are

267
00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:40,959
Speaker 1: all going to unite to take down and destroy Facebook.

268
00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:46,560
Speaker 1: That could happen. Amazon and Google could do a tremendous

269
00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:50,080
Speaker 1: amount of damage to Facebook if they wanted to, but

270
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:55,320
Speaker 1: they won't. Oh, you mean the standard isn't really a standard.

271
00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:59,000
Speaker 1: It's an excuse they wanted to shut down Parlor. They

272
00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:03,400
Speaker 1: wanted to destroy it. Why is that? Well, in Parlor's

273
00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:08,840
Speaker 1: lawsuit they show that that one of the questions that

274
00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:11,680
Speaker 1: Amazon was asking them when they were trying to prevent,

275
00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:14,720
Speaker 1: you know, trying to stop them from shutting them down,

276
00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:19,400
Speaker 1: was is Donald Trump moving to Parlor? That's what they

277
00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:22,199
Speaker 1: really wanted to know. Well, here's the problem with that.

278
00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:26,240
Speaker 1: If you have a bunch of companies that work together

279
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:29,840
Speaker 1: to make sure that Donald Trump doesn't move to Parlor,

280
00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:33,800
Speaker 1: which would then make Parlor go up in growth by

281
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:38,760
Speaker 1: exponential numbers in just a matter of days. That looks

282
00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:44,200
Speaker 1: like good old fashioned anti competitive collusion, doesn't it. There

283
00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:49,000
Speaker 1: are laws about things like this. Anti competitive practices aren't allowed.

284
00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:52,199
Speaker 1: You're not allowed to price fix and you're not allowed

285
00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:57,640
Speaker 1: to person fix either. When it comes to social media platforms,

286
00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:01,639
Speaker 1: this lawsuit could get a whole lot more interesting. Thanks

287
00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:04,960
Speaker 1: for listening to The bus Essen Show podcasts. Remember to

288
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:08,840
Speaker 1: subscribe on Apple podcasts, the iHeartRadio app, or wherever you

289
00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:13,080
Speaker 1: get your podcasts. Now what you hear is, well, you

290
00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:16,280
Speaker 1: can't say that everybody who voted for Trump is like

291
00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:19,880
Speaker 1: the people who went into the Capitol. Response, you can't

292
00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:23,320
Speaker 1: say that what everybody's like, everybody who Trumps like them. Now,

293
00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:25,560
Speaker 1: I just explain to you if you if if you

294
00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:28,080
Speaker 1: are on that side, you need to think about the

295
00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:30,800
Speaker 1: sides are on. I'm never on the side of the clan.

296
00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:35,080
Speaker 1: I am net principal people conservative or liberal. Never on

297
00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:38,720
Speaker 1: the clan side. Principal people conservative or liberal, Never on

298
00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:42,640
Speaker 1: the Nazi side. Principal people who are conservative or liberal.

299
00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:46,600
Speaker 1: Never on the side that treats their their fellow Americans

300
00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:49,800
Speaker 1: as less than that says that your fellow Americans should

301
00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:54,119
Speaker 1: not exist, that said, that says your fellow Americans should

302
00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:57,440
Speaker 1: be in a concentration camp, or that sides with slavery,

303
00:19:57,720 --> 00:19:59,879
Speaker 1: or sides with any sort of bigots. Right. And if

304
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:01,879
Speaker 1: I say I don't agree with those people, I just

305
00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:03,639
Speaker 1: like Trump's policy, well then get out of the crowd

306
00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:05,720
Speaker 1: with him. Get out of the crowd. I wasn't in

307
00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:07,240
Speaker 1: the crowd. I just voted for Trump. You're in the

308
00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:09,639
Speaker 1: crowd who voted for Trump. If you voted for Trump,

309
00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:14,439
Speaker 1: you voted for the person who the clan supported. You

310
00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:18,919
Speaker 1: voted for the person who not sees support. You voted

311
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:23,040
Speaker 1: for the person who the alt right supports. That's the

312
00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:26,320
Speaker 1: crowd that you are in. You need to hear this

313
00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:30,640
Speaker 1: because I know a lot of you will dismiss that's

314
00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:34,560
Speaker 1: Don Lemon at CNN. He is very dumb, as are

315
00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,760
Speaker 1: many anchors at CNN. He is very dumb. Who cares

316
00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:41,960
Speaker 1: what he says? He is vocalizing. The reason he's doing

317
00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:47,640
Speaker 1: this is because it appeals to his audience, and he

318
00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:52,760
Speaker 1: is vocalizing, meaning the CNN CNN viewership, what they feel

319
00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:57,879
Speaker 1: back to them, because that drives ratings. His audience thinks

320
00:20:57,960 --> 00:21:01,600
Speaker 1: exactly what he's saying. You should know that they believe

321
00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:06,159
Speaker 1: that if you voted for Trump, you are guilty in

322
00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:09,280
Speaker 1: the way that he's suggesting. You are guilty of being

323
00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:12,439
Speaker 1: the supporter of a white supremacist. You're guilty being a

324
00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:15,200
Speaker 1: supporter of a I mean, I didn't even say Nazi.

325
00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:17,679
Speaker 1: Now I know that for a lot of you. That

326
00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:22,200
Speaker 1: was also a particularly painful recitation of allegations from Don

327
00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:27,640
Speaker 1: Lemon because those things he's talking about, putting people in camps, slavery,

328
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:33,240
Speaker 1: the ku klux Klan, those are all things for which

329
00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:38,320
Speaker 1: we have the Democrat Party. The Democrat Party must be

330
00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:42,639
Speaker 1: held responsible. The Democrats were the pro slavery party. The

331
00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:45,159
Speaker 1: Democrats were the Jim Crow Party. The Democrats were the

332
00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:49,840
Speaker 1: segregation party. The Democrats were the Interment of Japanese Americans party.

333
00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:54,520
Speaker 1: That's just fact, that's just true. But notice that now

334
00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:57,040
Speaker 1: they put her all on Republicans. Do you think that

335
00:21:57,119 --> 00:22:01,160
Speaker 1: they care one bit that Donald Trump managed to get

336
00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:05,240
Speaker 1: more of the black and Latino vote than any previous

337
00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:09,920
Speaker 1: GOP candidate in twenty years for the presidency. Does that matter? No,

338
00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:12,520
Speaker 1: that doesn't matter. Do they take any indicator of that

339
00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:14,919
Speaker 1: that there are a lot of people who are black

340
00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:19,120
Speaker 1: and Latino who see Donald Trump and understand that, now,

341
00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:23,440
Speaker 1: this guy's actually not a racist. He's imperfect, he's rough

342
00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:27,200
Speaker 1: around the edges. Not a racist, though, But they need

343
00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:30,960
Speaker 1: to have Donald Trump viewed as somebody who you're not

344
00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:34,040
Speaker 1: allowed to support. It's not even that you have bad

345
00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:37,320
Speaker 1: judgment for doing it. If you do it, you are

346
00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:40,520
Speaker 1: transgressing and should be punished. I've been telling you this

347
00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:46,040
Speaker 1: all week. It's about humiliating Trump voters. It's about forcing

348
00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:49,440
Speaker 1: you into a society where you're basically in a constant

349
00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:54,359
Speaker 1: re education camp online, in the office, for your job,

350
00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:58,040
Speaker 1: online at the grocery store. If you voted for Trump,

351
00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:00,560
Speaker 1: you're a bad person and you have you have something

352
00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:03,960
Speaker 1: to atone for. That's what they want you to feel.

353
00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:09,120
Speaker 1: That's what they want you to think, and it's just wrong.

354
00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:13,240
Speaker 1: It's just wrong on so many levels, right, I mean,

355
00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:15,560
Speaker 1: so there are many people that vote for Trump and

356
00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:19,600
Speaker 1: feel like he's very flawed and has made some bad

357
00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:24,080
Speaker 1: some plenty of bad decisions. But overall they first of all,

358
00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:26,480
Speaker 1: like the Republican Party. With the Democrat Party, I mean,

359
00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:28,280
Speaker 1: we could sit here, we're really going to talk about this.

360
00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:32,640
Speaker 1: I mean, Democrats are are the party of the celebration

361
00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:35,840
Speaker 1: of abortion, for example, which is which is just mora

362
00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:38,440
Speaker 1: le heinous. I mean, they can sit around and try

363
00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:41,160
Speaker 1: to come up with all kinds of rationalizations and justifications

364
00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:43,480
Speaker 1: and slogans and my body, my choice and all this stuff.

365
00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:46,080
Speaker 1: Not on vaccines, by the way, my body, my choice

366
00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:49,760
Speaker 1: doesn't apply to that for Democrats. But at the end

367
00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:51,359
Speaker 1: of the day, we realize what abortion is, and the

368
00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:54,280
Speaker 1: Democrat Party has embraced this, and I do believe that

369
00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:57,800
Speaker 1: it's a moral rot at the center of their conscience

370
00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:01,240
Speaker 1: that affects everything else that they do and see, and

371
00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:05,439
Speaker 1: their their view of the world around them starts with

372
00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:08,800
Speaker 1: they have convinced themselves that convenience is more important than

373
00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:14,359
Speaker 1: human life. That's that's a very corrosive moral proposition. But

374
00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:15,920
Speaker 1: if we're really going to do this, we're going to

375
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:19,080
Speaker 1: hold people accountable. Start to look at what democrats have

376
00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:22,040
Speaker 1: done and what they really believe. I mean that the

377
00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:28,920
Speaker 1: expansion of the term white supremacy. That's that's been underway

378
00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:31,040
Speaker 1: now for years. I've been warning about this. I told

379
00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:34,879
Speaker 1: you this is now just a This is a a

380
00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:39,080
Speaker 1: more weaponized version of the old everything is racist routine

381
00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:41,760
Speaker 1: that Democrats used to do anything that they didn't like,

382
00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:45,080
Speaker 1: all that's racist, that's racist. All through the nineties and

383
00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:48,040
Speaker 1: the early two thousands, that's what they would say. You know,

384
00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:51,440
Speaker 1: you would oppose democrats. Ah, it's because you're a white guy,

385
00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:56,280
Speaker 1: you're racist. Wait what, I just want less government interference

386
00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:58,159
Speaker 1: in my life and lower taxes. That makes me? That

387
00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:02,879
Speaker 1: makes me racist? Ah, that's racist. Now it's your white supremacist.

388
00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:08,960
Speaker 1: Because that lost, that accusation of baseless racism lost its sting,

389
00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:11,560
Speaker 1: It lost its impact over time. So what they what

390
00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:14,640
Speaker 1: they have now is your white supremacist. That's what they say.

391
00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:17,240
Speaker 1: And if you think that's any kind of exaggeration. This

392
00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:22,720
Speaker 1: was yesterday during the another a second sham impeachment process

393
00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:28,960
Speaker 1: against the president. Here's a representative Corey Corey Bush, referring

394
00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:31,320
Speaker 1: to well, you'll hear what he says about Trump, play too.

395
00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:34,879
Speaker 1: Saint Louis and I rise in support of the article

396
00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:38,199
Speaker 1: of impeachment against Donald J. Trump. If we fail to

397
00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:42,840
Speaker 1: remove a white supremacist president who incited a white supremacist insurrection,

398
00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:46,080
Speaker 1: it's communities like Missouri's first District that suffered the most.

399
00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:49,000
Speaker 1: The one hundred and seventeenth Congress must understand that we

400
00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:52,679
Speaker 1: have a mandate to legislate in defensive black lives. The

401
00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:56,080
Speaker 1: first step in that process is to root out white supremacy.

402
00:25:56,160 --> 00:26:00,600
Speaker 1: Is starting with impeaching the white supremacist in chief. This

403
00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:06,240
Speaker 1: is what she said, starting with the white supremacist in chief.

404
00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:10,920
Speaker 1: Donald Trump's a New York guy, grew up in Queens

405
00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:14,920
Speaker 1: in Manhattan. Nobody thought he was racist until he ran

406
00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:19,640
Speaker 1: for president, and now he's a white supremacist. Okay, that's

407
00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:22,200
Speaker 1: that's because they're really taking a fair view of any

408
00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:26,520
Speaker 1: of this CNN's Andy McCabe. Oh, you mean, if you

409
00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:29,000
Speaker 1: were part of the resistance and you abused your power.

410
00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:33,080
Speaker 1: Andy McCabe seemed really seems like a sociopath. And this

411
00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:35,359
Speaker 1: is a guy who's a Democrat activist who was the

412
00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:39,280
Speaker 1: acting FBI director and would do anything to protect the

413
00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:42,960
Speaker 1: Democrat establishment, the deep state in the swamp, and was

414
00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:48,520
Speaker 1: sanctimonious about it too, and really believes the MSNBC talking points.

415
00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:52,159
Speaker 1: He's now a purveyor of CNN talking points, which is

416
00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:56,160
Speaker 1: the same thing. Oh, it's all about It's all about

417
00:26:56,240 --> 00:27:01,320
Speaker 1: coded language. The coded language allegation here, this is one

418
00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:04,879
Speaker 1: you've been hearing for quite some time. Play eight. President

419
00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:08,560
Speaker 1: Trump is a master at coded language and the use

420
00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:11,639
Speaker 1: of dog whistles. And there is no question that that

421
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:15,320
Speaker 1: statement included some of those same references. Simply by leaving

422
00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:18,720
Speaker 1: out the comments that you've mentioned, he sends a signal

423
00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:22,720
Speaker 1: to his folks to fight on. He has never come

424
00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:26,600
Speaker 1: out and formally undercut the central theory of this of

425
00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:30,520
Speaker 1: this domestic terrorist rebellion, which is that the lie that

426
00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:33,600
Speaker 1: the election was stolen from them, and his failure to

427
00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:37,840
Speaker 1: do it last night is absolutely unforgivable. I dismissed that

428
00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:41,200
Speaker 1: statement as as a self serving attempt at damage control.

429
00:27:42,119 --> 00:27:48,040
Speaker 1: So Annie McCabe is a despicable person. We know that.

430
00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:52,119
Speaker 1: And this is a guy that that yells at subordinates

431
00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:55,040
Speaker 1: for leaks that he himself gave to newspapers when he's

432
00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:57,360
Speaker 1: at the FBI. I mean, what a what a scummy

433
00:27:57,440 --> 00:27:59,680
Speaker 1: thing to do. And this is a guy who was

434
00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:02,159
Speaker 1: part of the at the very top of the Russia

435
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:05,159
Speaker 1: collusion smear against the president, which was more than just

436
00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:08,080
Speaker 1: a mean thing to say in the press. They they

437
00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:14,639
Speaker 1: mobilized the criminal, the criminal investigatory and prosecutorial arms of

438
00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:17,960
Speaker 1: the federal government to go after a president because he

439
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:20,480
Speaker 1: says mean things about the New York Times and CNN.

440
00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:24,200
Speaker 1: That's what Annie McCabe was at the top of that effort.

441
00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:27,040
Speaker 1: No accountability really for him. I know he was fired,

442
00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:29,520
Speaker 1: but the guys should have been the should have been

443
00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:35,600
Speaker 1: fired and investigated for criminal abuse of power. And you know,

444
00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:37,280
Speaker 1: I'm not a big lock him up guy. I'm not

445
00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:39,760
Speaker 1: all this person you're going to president, you know, because

446
00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:41,240
Speaker 1: I think we have to be very careful with that.

447
00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:44,840
Speaker 1: But Annie McCay, what he did was real abuse, real

448
00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:49,240
Speaker 1: misuse of position. But coded language. You see, even when

449
00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:53,840
Speaker 1: Trump says don't be violent, it doesn't matter because when

450
00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:57,320
Speaker 1: Trump says don't be violent and be peaceful, what he's

451
00:28:57,320 --> 00:29:01,360
Speaker 1: really saying, according to the left and the Libs, is yeah,

452
00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:05,080
Speaker 1: be terrorists mounted insurrection. So it doesn't matter what he says,

453
00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:08,880
Speaker 1: they're gonna stay with this. Oh and you're not allowed

454
00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:12,520
Speaker 1: to believe that the election had any problems whatsoever or else.

455
00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:15,600
Speaker 1: You're also if you think that there was still fraud

456
00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:19,760
Speaker 1: in this election, you Andy McKay wants people to know,

457
00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:25,000
Speaker 1: are are encouraging an insurrection and domestic terrorists agree with

458
00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:29,720
Speaker 1: us on politics, or you're a terrorist. That's the Democrat

459
00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:34,680
Speaker 1: position right now. That's that's being given voice all across

460
00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:38,440
Speaker 1: the media, and it's it's being echoed all throughout the

461
00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:41,800
Speaker 1: Democratic Party. And it's disgusting. Oh but they want they

462
00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:47,520
Speaker 1: want unity. Yeah, sure they do. You're in the Hut.

463
00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:54,760
Speaker 1: This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast pushing this idea

464
00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:57,680
Speaker 1: that the attack on the Capitol last week bore any

465
00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:00,920
Speaker 1: resemblance to the Black Lives Matters pro tests over the summer.

466
00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:05,800
Speaker 1: It's not just dumb, it's disgusting. Stop comparing protesters marching

467
00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:09,640
Speaker 1: to protect their rights with anarchists storming an election to

468
00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:13,160
Speaker 1: strip us of ours. Stop it, you sound stupid, Okay?

469
00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:17,120
Speaker 1: So who are the people that were smashing and looting

470
00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:20,560
Speaker 1: stores and throwing rocks and Moltsof cocktails at cops? Because

471
00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:24,600
Speaker 1: because Jimmy Kimmel, late night comedian, seems so sure that

472
00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:28,200
Speaker 1: it's a disgusting thing to talk about blm peaceful marchers.

473
00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:32,000
Speaker 1: So I just want to know who destroyed hundreds and

474
00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:35,160
Speaker 1: hundreds of businesses across the country, looted them, burned some

475
00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:37,280
Speaker 1: to the ground. Who burned that police station to the

476
00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:40,160
Speaker 1: ground in Minnesota. Who threw a Moltsof cocktail into a

477
00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:43,480
Speaker 1: cop car here in New York City? Who shot to

478
00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:47,800
Speaker 1: La County Sheriff's deputies almost killed them, both, shot them

479
00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:51,960
Speaker 1: the neck. Who did all that? Wasn't Trump supporters? Right?

480
00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:55,960
Speaker 1: Who were the people that caused millions and millions of

481
00:30:56,040 --> 00:31:00,720
Speaker 1: dollars of damage to public and private property because they

482
00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:05,160
Speaker 1: were unhappy about policing? I just want to know it

483
00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:09,880
Speaker 1: wasn't Trump voters. But see if you point out that

484
00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:12,360
Speaker 1: there was something nasty about any of that, If you

485
00:31:12,400 --> 00:31:15,480
Speaker 1: point out that there were people spitting in cops faces,

486
00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:21,400
Speaker 1: calling black police officers. This is on video, horrible racial slurs,

487
00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:26,480
Speaker 1: undermining them as human beings doing everything they can. If

488
00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:28,760
Speaker 1: you point any of that out, you're the problem. Jimmy

489
00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:32,120
Speaker 1: Gonna look, Jimmy Kimmel is a moron, but he's a

490
00:31:32,240 --> 00:31:35,680
Speaker 1: very rich comedian because the guy's played in the system

491
00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:37,440
Speaker 1: and done what he's had to do to get ahead.

492
00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:39,520
Speaker 1: But if you take your political advice from this guy,

493
00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:43,840
Speaker 1: you're just not very smart because he's not very smart. Rich, yes,

494
00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:51,280
Speaker 1: has a big audience. Unfortunately is known as a good person. No,

495
00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:56,200
Speaker 1: it's actually considered a really vicious soob inside the industry said,

496
00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:58,120
Speaker 1: how do you know that? Because I know people who

497
00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:01,080
Speaker 1: know people who work in the entertainment industry. I am

498
00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:06,440
Speaker 1: far away from all that stuff. But he's not the

499
00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:09,640
Speaker 1: only one who's got the rhetoric dialed up to the

500
00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:15,360
Speaker 1: act absolute maximum. Here you have somebody who is at

501
00:32:15,400 --> 00:32:20,480
Speaker 1: least smarter than Jimmy Kimmel. Bro Cuomo over at CNN

502
00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:22,640
Speaker 1: talking about how that you know this is it looks

503
00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:26,760
Speaker 1: like war zone stuff going on right now. Play sixteen.

504
00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:30,320
Speaker 1: The Secret Service is now too concerned about violence that

505
00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:32,600
Speaker 1: President elect Biden will no longer be able to travel

506
00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:35,520
Speaker 1: on Amtrak from his home in Wilmington, Delaware. Because of

507
00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:37,520
Speaker 1: the in the wake of what happened and all the

508
00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:40,920
Speaker 1: chatter about potential threats, security is being heightened at capitals

509
00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:44,200
Speaker 1: all across America, all fifty state capitals under thread of

510
00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:47,240
Speaker 1: armed protests in the run up to inauguration. No external

511
00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:50,880
Speaker 1: terrorists ever did this to us. We've never worried like this,

512
00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:53,000
Speaker 1: even after nine to eleven. I didn't read about it

513
00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:54,880
Speaker 1: in a book. I lived it. I was there that morning,

514
00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:57,840
Speaker 1: I was there for days, weeks. I lost people. I

515
00:32:57,960 --> 00:33:01,000
Speaker 1: covered it. I went to train and then I wars abroad.

516
00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:04,520
Speaker 1: I've seen ugly things, but this country now resembles. But

517
00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:07,880
Speaker 1: I've never seen this country more in doubt about safety

518
00:33:07,880 --> 00:33:12,560
Speaker 1: at home than right now. And the enemy is us now.

519
00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:14,959
Speaker 1: I just want to be clear that they are talking

520
00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:18,280
Speaker 1: about what happened at Capitol Hill. The enemy is us.

521
00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:20,040
Speaker 1: He means Trump supporters, by the way, he doesn't mean

522
00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:23,080
Speaker 1: just the general American people. He means Trump supporters. They're

523
00:33:23,120 --> 00:33:27,240
Speaker 1: talking about Capitol Hill the way that they would speak

524
00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:30,480
Speaker 1: about it if men were you know, if men and

525
00:33:30,520 --> 00:33:34,280
Speaker 1: women you know, armed went into the building to take

526
00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:37,720
Speaker 1: it over. And we're firing at police officers. Now there

527
00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:40,200
Speaker 1: are people that storm the building, no question, it's horrible.

528
00:33:40,360 --> 00:33:42,800
Speaker 1: There are people that were pushing through and attack and

529
00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:47,960
Speaker 1: punching cops. But they didn't actually go in there armed

530
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:51,880
Speaker 1: with rifles as part of a coup to take over

531
00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:56,160
Speaker 1: the building and hold it as that would be an insurrection.

532
00:33:56,720 --> 00:33:59,360
Speaker 1: And they're speaking about this like that is what happened

533
00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:04,840
Speaker 1: is a riot. Let's let's remember it was people planning

534
00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:09,520
Speaker 1: what they what they thought was a violent political spectacle.

535
00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:13,480
Speaker 1: But within the limitations of not actually going force on

536
00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:18,439
Speaker 1: force against say, the National Guard, with guns blazing and

537
00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:20,359
Speaker 1: and all. That's what you see in countries where there's

538
00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:23,960
Speaker 1: actually a coup. I mean, the people that stormed the

539
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:27,239
Speaker 1: Capitol building didn't think that if the National Guard the

540
00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:29,160
Speaker 1: FBI were called in that they were going to be

541
00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:32,880
Speaker 1: able to fight them off. Now I know these distinctions,

542
00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:37,160
Speaker 1: This honesty about what actually happened is very this is

543
00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:39,280
Speaker 1: very tense right now, you're not allowed to say these things.

544
00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:43,680
Speaker 1: But insurrection would be the overthrow of the United States government.

545
00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:47,000
Speaker 1: The people that ran into that building, were they really

546
00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:49,920
Speaker 1: going to overthrow? Some of them might be deeply mentally

547
00:34:49,960 --> 00:34:53,040
Speaker 1: ill and think that they could accomplish that, and I'm

548
00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:55,399
Speaker 1: sure we'll hear about them and their text messages about

549
00:34:55,400 --> 00:34:58,680
Speaker 1: how they're gonna, you know, they're gonna be putting a

550
00:34:58,719 --> 00:35:01,120
Speaker 1: new dictator in charge something, or that the Trump will

551
00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:04,600
Speaker 1: be president for fifty years or whatever. But overall, you

552
00:35:04,640 --> 00:35:08,239
Speaker 1: had people who made a very bad decision, and as

553
00:35:08,239 --> 00:35:11,640
Speaker 1: we see it has unfortunately played right into Democrat hands

554
00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:15,399
Speaker 1: about authoritarianism and a crackdown on Trump voters and all

555
00:35:15,400 --> 00:35:19,360
Speaker 1: of this. In that sense, it is a disaster. Maxie

556
00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:25,600
Speaker 1: and Waters, speaking of overheated rhetoric, Maxie and Waters has

557
00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:30,840
Speaker 1: said the following about Trump Play twelve. It is reported

558
00:35:31,080 --> 00:35:34,640
Speaker 1: that the President of the United States watch the invasion

559
00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:39,160
Speaker 1: from the Oval office of our capital and seemingly enjoyed it.

560
00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:42,359
Speaker 1: I want you to know we should be concerned that

561
00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:46,960
Speaker 1: the Republicans will not defend him, and he is capable

562
00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:50,840
Speaker 1: of studying a civil war. He must be impeached, He

563
00:35:50,960 --> 00:35:54,520
Speaker 1: must be stopped. Now. The president is not going to

564
00:35:54,560 --> 00:35:59,520
Speaker 1: start a civil war. This kind of talk is not helping.

565
00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:02,520
Speaker 1: This is not this is not making everybody feel better

566
00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:05,760
Speaker 1: about the future of the country. This is not making

567
00:36:05,800 --> 00:36:09,719
Speaker 1: everything calm down and moved to the peaceful transition here

568
00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:14,520
Speaker 1: when you're talking about eighty to nine of Republicans all

569
00:36:14,760 --> 00:36:18,719
Speaker 1: completely condemning what happened at Capitol Hill, the riot, And

570
00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:21,080
Speaker 1: that's what the numbers are those are listening, it's eighty

571
00:36:21,080 --> 00:36:24,040
Speaker 1: to ninety percent of Republicans are saying what happened there

572
00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:29,600
Speaker 1: was was just was awful, that there is very very

573
00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:32,840
Speaker 1: clear condemnation of this. Now they still, I understand, the

574
00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:36,080
Speaker 1: left will still play this game of oh, BLM, there

575
00:36:36,080 --> 00:36:39,600
Speaker 1: were no riots. I mean, it is the the biggest

576
00:36:39,719 --> 00:36:42,920
Speaker 1: gas lighting I think we've ever seen in this country,

577
00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:45,840
Speaker 1: at least in my lifetime. There were no BLM riots.

578
00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:49,560
Speaker 1: Who was doing all the rioting, who was marching around

579
00:36:49,560 --> 00:36:52,879
Speaker 1: in the streets at night, breaking windows, stealing from Lena

580
00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:56,200
Speaker 1: Louis Vuitton stores in sneaker stores, and throwing rocks at

581
00:36:56,239 --> 00:36:59,839
Speaker 1: cops and lighting things on fire. Who's doing all of that?

582
00:37:00,719 --> 00:37:04,000
Speaker 1: Not BLM peaceful protesters. They say, well, who was in

583
00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:07,040
Speaker 1: charge of all of that? But no, Instead we have

584
00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:11,399
Speaker 1: talked now of civil war. And the Democrats think about

585
00:37:11,400 --> 00:37:13,759
Speaker 1: what they were able to do with the Russia collusion lie.

586
00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:16,560
Speaker 1: Now they're going to be taken act taking action on

587
00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:22,720
Speaker 1: the Trump insurrection. Lie, that's their plan. Thanks for listening

Speaker 1: is a former Army ranger and bestselling author and was

595
00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:51,719
Speaker 1: great to have you. Good to be back, Buck, Thank

596
00:37:51,760 --> 00:37:54,360
Speaker 1: you for having me at what is a very interesting

597
00:37:54,400 --> 00:37:57,839
Speaker 1: time in our country, to say the least. Yeah. I mean, look,

598
00:37:57,840 --> 00:38:02,000
Speaker 1: we're going to a buy inauguration here just days away.

599
00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:08,000
Speaker 1: You're seeing all these photos of that the media are

600
00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:10,880
Speaker 1: sharing all over the place of National guardsmen not just

601
00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:13,840
Speaker 1: being in DC, but but sleeping on the floor of

602
00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:17,840
Speaker 1: the Capitol. I mean as though they're preparing for a

603
00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:21,320
Speaker 1: foreign invasion. I mean, that's that's the the the visual

604
00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:24,680
Speaker 1: that you're supposed to take from this. How are how

605
00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:27,799
Speaker 1: are you seeing the political scene right now? What are

606
00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:30,120
Speaker 1: your what are your just your broad thoughts about where

607
00:38:30,360 --> 00:38:33,839
Speaker 1: where we as conservatives are at this moment. Well, I,

608
00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:36,920
Speaker 1: first of all, I think it's it's America is on

609
00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:40,239
Speaker 1: the brink. As you probably already know. Democrats haven't they

610
00:38:40,239 --> 00:38:43,000
Speaker 1: don't even have all three branches of government yet, but

611
00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:46,520
Speaker 1: they've already proposed a resolution in the House for a

612
00:38:46,600 --> 00:38:50,200
Speaker 1: constitutional amendment to abolish the electoral college. Right, So, I

613
00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:55,400
Speaker 1: think what this country can conservatives, uh specifically can expect

614
00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:58,240
Speaker 1: over the next two years are some of the most

615
00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:02,160
Speaker 1: radical pieces of legislation would fundamentally transform America as we

616
00:39:02,239 --> 00:39:05,600
Speaker 1: know it. And you know, you've got this impeachment going

617
00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:09,399
Speaker 1: on in the House and and strategically Buck you know, look,

618
00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:14,680
Speaker 1: I don't think that the president incited a riot. I

619
00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:17,480
Speaker 1: don't think that what he did rises to an impeachable offense.

620
00:39:17,520 --> 00:39:20,040
Speaker 1: And if you read the transcript, indeed you'll see that

621
00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:23,839
Speaker 1: for yourself said peacefully, you know, go peacefully, make your

622
00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:28,080
Speaker 1: voices heard. That doesn't mean that the riot at the

623
00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:31,080
Speaker 1: Capitol was acceptable. It wasn't, But at least have the

624
00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:34,040
Speaker 1: moral courage to say that Antifa and Black Lives Matter

625
00:39:34,200 --> 00:39:37,680
Speaker 1: rioting all year in twenty twenty that wasn't acceptable either,

626
00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:42,480
Speaker 1: you know, violence for political to establish some sort of

627
00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:47,320
Speaker 1: political end. It is never acceptable. But what the president

628
00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:49,640
Speaker 1: did I don't believe rise to an impeachable offense. But

629
00:39:49,719 --> 00:39:53,600
Speaker 1: the Democrats expected response was to impeach the president for

630
00:39:53,680 --> 00:39:57,840
Speaker 1: a second time, sultaneously preaching unity. And here here's the

631
00:39:57,880 --> 00:40:00,719
Speaker 1: problem with that. With that, Buck, I I think that

632
00:40:00,880 --> 00:40:04,680
Speaker 1: this impeachment moved from a tactical and strategic standpoint on

633
00:40:04,680 --> 00:40:08,520
Speaker 1: the Democrat side, I'm speaking just politically. I think that

634
00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:10,239
Speaker 1: they know in their heart of hearts that what the

635
00:40:10,239 --> 00:40:13,759
Speaker 1: president did to not rise to incitement of violence or

636
00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:15,759
Speaker 1: incitement of some sort of riot. But I think that

637
00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:22,000
Speaker 1: what they're trying to do is separate traditional GOP from

638
00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:25,280
Speaker 1: the Trump base. That that makes sense going into twenty

639
00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:28,360
Speaker 1: twenty two because if you're a candidate, whether you're running

640
00:40:28,440 --> 00:40:32,560
Speaker 1: for the House or the Senate, right now, conservatives have

641
00:40:32,680 --> 00:40:36,440
Speaker 1: got to walk a very fine line to bring both

642
00:40:36,440 --> 00:40:39,200
Speaker 1: of those groups out right, traditional members of the GOP

643
00:40:39,840 --> 00:40:44,239
Speaker 1: and the Trump base, especially in states like Pennsylvania. So

644
00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:48,600
Speaker 1: this impeachment, what's going on right now is really, I think,

645
00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:51,480
Speaker 1: you know, from a strategic standpoint, to divide the party

646
00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:55,600
Speaker 1: and separate traditional GOOP from the Trump base. And right

647
00:40:55,600 --> 00:40:59,640
Speaker 1: now it's working, and the GEOP should recognize that and

648
00:40:59,680 --> 00:41:02,120
Speaker 1: not allow them to do it. It doesn't mean, by

649
00:41:02,120 --> 00:41:04,719
Speaker 1: the way, it doesn't mean that we should accept what

650
00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:07,560
Speaker 1: happened as the Capitol as the norm. We shouldn't. It's

651
00:41:07,600 --> 00:41:11,919
Speaker 1: not acceptable. As I mentioned, violence to establish some sort

652
00:41:11,920 --> 00:41:17,440
Speaker 1: of political end is never acceptable. But you know, I conservatives,

653
00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:22,280
Speaker 1: it's it's disheartening to me sometimes buck to seek conservatives

654
00:41:22,640 --> 00:41:26,279
Speaker 1: not circle their wagons and fight. The Democrats always fight.

655
00:41:26,400 --> 00:41:29,719
Speaker 1: They unify and they fight, and they do it quite effectively.

656
00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:35,840
Speaker 1: Republicans don't. And quite honestly, it's a leadership issue that

657
00:41:35,880 --> 00:41:40,319
Speaker 1: I hope moving forward is resolved because we don't win

658
00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:43,680
Speaker 1: elections unless we as a party as united. We as

659
00:41:43,719 --> 00:41:46,000
Speaker 1: a party are united, and that's where I think the

660
00:41:46,080 --> 00:41:49,000
Speaker 1: leadership needs to focus. Now, what do you make of

661
00:41:49,080 --> 00:41:53,279
Speaker 1: the the big tech censorship effort that's still that's still

662
00:41:53,320 --> 00:41:57,239
Speaker 1: ongoing now, especially given we found out that a lot

663
00:41:57,239 --> 00:41:59,799
Speaker 1: of the Capitol Hill riot and this is according to

664
00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:03,800
Speaker 1: left wing analysis, was actually planned on Facebook, not on Parlor.

665
00:42:04,080 --> 00:42:07,960
Speaker 1: But Parlor gets shut down. That seems like, yes, they

666
00:42:07,960 --> 00:42:10,040
Speaker 1: don't like it because it's a place where conservatives can

667
00:42:10,040 --> 00:42:13,360
Speaker 1: speak without the left's not even thumb but elbow on

668
00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:16,640
Speaker 1: the scale for the other side. But also it seems

669
00:42:16,680 --> 00:42:21,240
Speaker 1: like they really wanted to prevent a mass migration from

670
00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:25,680
Speaker 1: Twitter users to Parlor users to create a new conservative

671
00:42:25,680 --> 00:42:29,600
Speaker 1: digital ecosystem. No, you're exactly right. I look, big tech

672
00:42:29,719 --> 00:42:34,040
Speaker 1: censorship is a problem, But perhaps more concerting than that

673
00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:40,120
Speaker 1: is the collusion between big tech I e. Facebook, Twitter, Amazon.

674
00:42:40,719 --> 00:42:42,640
Speaker 1: You know the line of thinking as well. You know

675
00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:44,360
Speaker 1: a lot of people will tell you, oh, they're a

676
00:42:44,360 --> 00:42:47,080
Speaker 1: private company. If you can't follow their terms of service,

677
00:42:47,239 --> 00:42:49,560
Speaker 1: well you don't belong on the platform and deserve to

678
00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:52,880
Speaker 1: get footed. But the problem is their terms of service

679
00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:55,719
Speaker 1: constantly change, right, you never really know what they are,

680
00:42:56,040 --> 00:42:59,319
Speaker 1: and they always end up censoring one group. And so

681
00:42:59,800 --> 00:43:01,800
Speaker 1: the line of thinking as well, start your own social

682
00:43:01,800 --> 00:43:05,600
Speaker 1: media platform. And so with Parlor they did that, and

683
00:43:05,640 --> 00:43:08,359
Speaker 1: then it was Apple saying, well, we're going to remove

684
00:43:08,400 --> 00:43:10,520
Speaker 1: you from the app store. We'll start your own start

685
00:43:10,520 --> 00:43:12,960
Speaker 1: your own website. You can start your own website. And

686
00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:16,319
Speaker 1: then Amazon removed them from the server. Right, So what's

687
00:43:16,360 --> 00:43:20,040
Speaker 1: the next step, meaningful step after that, start your own

688
00:43:20,080 --> 00:43:23,960
Speaker 1: internet company. I don't know. The point is, I do

689
00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:26,719
Speaker 1: recognize the sensitivity of a private company being able to

690
00:43:26,760 --> 00:43:29,360
Speaker 1: call the shots and I don't like the government forcing

691
00:43:29,360 --> 00:43:32,320
Speaker 1: them to do business a certain way, but in this instance,

692
00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:34,200
Speaker 1: I think that there is a monopoly. There was a

693
00:43:34,280 --> 00:43:37,080
Speaker 1: level of collusion going on to crush opposition, and in

694
00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:40,520
Speaker 1: this case what it was is parlor and I think

695
00:43:41,360 --> 00:43:45,040
Speaker 1: separately but also related shutting down the president of the

696
00:43:45,120 --> 00:43:48,400
Speaker 1: United States. Now, his official Twitter account is still active,

697
00:43:48,400 --> 00:43:49,880
Speaker 1: and I think critics would say, well, they left his

698
00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:53,319
Speaker 1: official Twitter account active, but they removed tweets from that

699
00:43:53,360 --> 00:43:57,000
Speaker 1: as well. Right, is this not a national security issue?

700
00:43:57,920 --> 00:44:01,120
Speaker 1: If for some reason there was a national security issue

701
00:44:01,120 --> 00:44:05,480
Speaker 1: that required the president's attention and the president needed to

702
00:44:05,520 --> 00:44:08,360
Speaker 1: reach as many people in the country as he could

703
00:44:09,040 --> 00:44:12,680
Speaker 1: at a specific time. If if a tech company like

704
00:44:12,719 --> 00:44:16,240
Speaker 1: Twitter or Facebook can simply flip a switch and prevent

705
00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:20,640
Speaker 1: him from doing that, does that not have national security implications?

706
00:44:21,160 --> 00:44:24,360
Speaker 1: Especially when Yeah, while Twitter and Facebook there are certainly

707
00:44:24,400 --> 00:44:28,279
Speaker 1: based here in America that they're they're a global company,

708
00:44:28,480 --> 00:44:31,799
Speaker 1: you know, And so how much investment in Twitter and

709
00:44:31,920 --> 00:44:34,319
Speaker 1: in Facebook and in Amazon or how much of the

710
00:44:34,400 --> 00:44:38,759
Speaker 1: marketplace is in communist China, Right, that's a big deal.

711
00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:41,279
Speaker 1: And if the communist Chinese can leverage any sort of

712
00:44:41,320 --> 00:44:44,640
Speaker 1: financial power over some of these big tech companies, which,

713
00:44:44,680 --> 00:44:48,879
Speaker 1: by the way, communist China can do that, and these

714
00:44:48,920 --> 00:44:51,440
Speaker 1: tech tech companies can then flip a switch and prevent

715
00:44:51,480 --> 00:44:54,480
Speaker 1: the president of the United States from from leading this

716
00:44:54,600 --> 00:44:58,000
Speaker 1: country in a crisis. Is that not a national security issue?

717
00:44:58,040 --> 00:45:01,359
Speaker 1: And does that not demand some form of legislation to

718
00:45:01,360 --> 00:45:04,760
Speaker 1: prevent that from happening? And what you're seeing people people

719
00:45:04,760 --> 00:45:07,279
Speaker 1: in countries like Germany have come out and condemned what

720
00:45:07,640 --> 00:45:10,040
Speaker 1: big tech has done to the president. France has come

721
00:45:10,080 --> 00:45:13,040
Speaker 1: out and condemned what big tech is in terms of

722
00:45:13,080 --> 00:45:15,840
Speaker 1: centurying the president, and Poland is really putting forth meaningful

723
00:45:15,920 --> 00:45:18,080
Speaker 1: legislation to ensure that something like that can't happen in

724
00:45:18,120 --> 00:45:21,719
Speaker 1: their country. So I don't think it's as simple of

725
00:45:21,880 --> 00:45:24,840
Speaker 1: saying repeal Section two thirty, because I think that that

726
00:45:24,880 --> 00:45:28,960
Speaker 1: would destroy independent media period right, But there certainly needs

727
00:45:28,960 --> 00:45:31,480
Speaker 1: to be reforms made to make sure that companies like

728
00:45:31,520 --> 00:45:34,360
Speaker 1: this can't ban key leaders. It's being a Sean Parnell,

729
00:45:34,480 --> 00:45:37,879
Speaker 1: former Army Ranger, best selling author, and he just ran

730
00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:41,040
Speaker 1: in this election for Pennsylvania seventeen for Congress in a

731
00:45:41,600 --> 00:45:44,320
Speaker 1: nailbiter and to that and Sean, we've we've had you

732
00:45:44,400 --> 00:45:48,280
Speaker 1: on to talk about your your concerns about election integrity,

733
00:45:48,280 --> 00:45:52,799
Speaker 1: specifically in the state of Pennsylvania. Is it effectively now

734
00:45:54,320 --> 00:45:59,600
Speaker 1: very hard to almost impossible, let's say, to speak about

735
00:45:59,719 --> 00:46:03,680
Speaker 1: pub luckily those things on digital platforms without fear of

736
00:46:03,920 --> 00:46:07,279
Speaker 1: you know, to speak about real Look, they change rules

737
00:46:07,320 --> 00:46:10,600
Speaker 1: in Pennsylvania. We've talked about, talked about this many times.

738
00:46:10,680 --> 00:46:14,560
Speaker 1: They they moved around how you know, the how early

739
00:46:14,680 --> 00:46:17,120
Speaker 1: and how late people could vote, and when the votes

740
00:46:17,120 --> 00:46:18,759
Speaker 1: would be counted, and what you had to do with

741
00:46:18,840 --> 00:46:21,440
Speaker 1: the mail in ballot procedures. All kinds of shifts that

742
00:46:21,480 --> 00:46:25,360
Speaker 1: were made. Do you ever get to get dinged or

743
00:46:25,400 --> 00:46:27,960
Speaker 1: do you ever have of a concern that you might

744
00:46:28,080 --> 00:46:31,040
Speaker 1: be shut down and deep platformed just for talking about

745
00:46:31,080 --> 00:46:35,120
Speaker 1: that stuff? Yes? And yeah, and I won't go into specifics,

746
00:46:35,160 --> 00:46:37,239
Speaker 1: but it's already happening. Like you like you, Buck and

747
00:46:37,320 --> 00:46:40,440
Speaker 1: many other conservatives on Twitter, I've lost close to forty

748
00:46:40,520 --> 00:46:45,400
Speaker 1: thousand followers in a week, um, and and more followers

749
00:46:45,440 --> 00:46:47,719
Speaker 1: on Facebook and Instagram and things like that. And I

750
00:46:47,840 --> 00:46:50,600
Speaker 1: think this this brings me to the second point of

751
00:46:51,320 --> 00:46:56,480
Speaker 1: this impeachment. Uh, the democratic strategy behind the impeachment is

752
00:46:56,600 --> 00:46:59,960
Speaker 1: to sort of put forth like like the the idea

753
00:47:00,400 --> 00:47:03,840
Speaker 1: that if you talk about election integrity there are issues

754
00:47:03,920 --> 00:47:08,680
Speaker 1: that pertain to twenty twenty, then therefore you're inciting violence. Right,

755
00:47:09,320 --> 00:47:12,120
Speaker 1: That's a real problem. And I think the Democrats right

756
00:47:12,200 --> 00:47:15,440
Speaker 1: now and again the second tier of their strategy with

757
00:47:15,520 --> 00:47:19,360
Speaker 1: his impeachment is to make any discussion of election integrity

758
00:47:19,680 --> 00:47:22,040
Speaker 1: wold is in a public form on social media a

759
00:47:22,160 --> 00:47:25,720
Speaker 1: thought crime when there are really there, really are valid

760
00:47:25,880 --> 00:47:29,400
Speaker 1: questions to be had here, right. And so your question

761
00:47:29,480 --> 00:47:33,759
Speaker 1: of what's the way forward in Pennsylvania, well, yes, it

762
00:47:33,880 --> 00:47:36,320
Speaker 1: is difficult to talk about in public. Were there issues?

763
00:47:36,440 --> 00:47:39,359
Speaker 1: Were there issues as they pertain to this election? Yes?

764
00:47:40,960 --> 00:47:44,200
Speaker 1: Are those issues resolved right now? What less than a

765
00:47:44,280 --> 00:47:47,759
Speaker 1: week prior to inauguration? No, they haven't been involved. They

766
00:47:47,800 --> 00:47:51,160
Speaker 1: haven't been resolved. In fact, there's still a voter deficit

767
00:47:51,600 --> 00:47:53,520
Speaker 1: in Pennsylvania that's yet to be resolved in what that

768
00:47:53,719 --> 00:47:56,440
Speaker 1: essentially means more votes than voters. Have been criticized for

769
00:47:56,520 --> 00:48:01,280
Speaker 1: that online, saying that it's been debunked. It's not been debunked.

770
00:48:01,560 --> 00:48:03,799
Speaker 1: The only thing that the Secretary of State of Pennsylvania

771
00:48:03,880 --> 00:48:07,560
Speaker 1: has said is that that the information that I'm presenting

772
00:48:07,640 --> 00:48:09,880
Speaker 1: is based on incomplete data and I turn around and

773
00:48:09,960 --> 00:48:12,279
Speaker 1: I say to the Secretary of State, Well, then if

774
00:48:12,320 --> 00:48:15,440
Speaker 1: the data is incomplete, how then do you certify the

775
00:48:15,560 --> 00:48:18,080
Speaker 1: races in the state of Pennsylvania on November twenty fourth,

776
00:48:18,160 --> 00:48:20,560
Speaker 1: when they're still technically in the state of Pennsylvania more

777
00:48:20,640 --> 00:48:23,600
Speaker 1: votes than voters. Now, she'll probably say, well, as time

778
00:48:23,760 --> 00:48:27,840
Speaker 1: goes on, that gap will close. Well, in Montgomery County,

779
00:48:27,880 --> 00:48:31,120
Speaker 1: for example, Buck, there's still a voter depicit, right, there's

780
00:48:31,120 --> 00:48:34,000
Speaker 1: still a voter depicite of over six thousand votes, in

781
00:48:34,040 --> 00:48:37,239
Speaker 1: other words, more votes than voters. And they've been done

782
00:48:38,040 --> 00:48:41,319
Speaker 1: right for about four weeks. Now. It doesn't mean they're

783
00:48:41,360 --> 00:48:43,360
Speaker 1: not working to resolve that. It doesn't mean that that

784
00:48:43,480 --> 00:48:46,880
Speaker 1: gap won't close, but they've been officially done counting for

785
00:48:47,360 --> 00:48:52,680
Speaker 1: about a month. So moving forward, right, Discussing this stuff

786
00:48:52,760 --> 00:48:57,279
Speaker 1: moving forward for me is not about overturning twenty twenty right,

787
00:48:57,360 --> 00:49:00,320
Speaker 1: it's not about that. But if we don't us this

788
00:49:00,480 --> 00:49:03,640
Speaker 1: stuff now, well, then how can we guarantee you know,

789
00:49:03,800 --> 00:49:07,000
Speaker 1: municipal elections in twenty twenty one, where mail and ballots

790
00:49:07,040 --> 00:49:08,919
Speaker 1: are being sent out for in what a few months

791
00:49:09,040 --> 00:49:11,520
Speaker 1: just for municipal election, and then in twenty twenty two

792
00:49:11,880 --> 00:49:14,520
Speaker 1: there's a gubernatorial election. There will be a gubernatorial election

793
00:49:14,560 --> 00:49:16,680
Speaker 1: in a Senate race here in the state of Pennsylvania,

794
00:49:16,960 --> 00:49:21,120
Speaker 1: We've got to have these wrinkles ironed out prior to

795
00:49:21,239 --> 00:49:25,160
Speaker 1: that time or the situation will get worse. There's state

796
00:49:25,280 --> 00:49:28,680
Speaker 1: law in Pennsylvania PA statute I think thirty one fifty

797
00:49:28,719 --> 00:49:31,680
Speaker 1: four says that the books at the precinct, county, and

798
00:49:31,840 --> 00:49:36,960
Speaker 1: state state level must be reconciled prior to certification. And

799
00:49:37,120 --> 00:49:40,080
Speaker 1: right now they're not. And so that's a problem we've got.

800
00:49:40,320 --> 00:49:42,239
Speaker 1: We've got to be able to talk about it and

801
00:49:42,360 --> 00:49:44,880
Speaker 1: discussions just like this to make sure that it doesn't

802
00:49:44,920 --> 00:49:48,440
Speaker 1: happen moving forward. You know, I posted on Facebook today

803
00:49:48,560 --> 00:49:52,719
Speaker 1: buck about Look, you know, we're going to see some

804
00:49:53,200 --> 00:49:56,360
Speaker 1: very radical pieces of legislation moving forward. They've already, like

805
00:49:56,360 --> 00:49:58,320
Speaker 1: I said, they've already got a resolution to propose a

806
00:49:58,360 --> 00:50:01,080
Speaker 1: constitutional amendment to abolish the elect to or college. I

807
00:50:01,200 --> 00:50:04,720
Speaker 1: think conservatives can reasonably expect, you know, Washington at Washington,

808
00:50:04,840 --> 00:50:07,680
Speaker 1: d C. And Puerto Rico statehood. I think there's an

809
00:50:07,719 --> 00:50:09,880
Speaker 1: argument to be made the left is going to try

810
00:50:09,920 --> 00:50:11,920
Speaker 1: to pack the Supreme Court all things that you've addressed

811
00:50:11,960 --> 00:50:14,719
Speaker 1: on your show before. Look, these things are coming. And

812
00:50:14,800 --> 00:50:17,760
Speaker 1: when the Democrats wield power and control all three branches

813
00:50:17,840 --> 00:50:20,320
Speaker 1: of government, they are never afraid to wield it. But

814
00:50:20,440 --> 00:50:22,839
Speaker 1: that does not mean that we should stop fighting. In fact,

815
00:50:22,960 --> 00:50:25,840
Speaker 1: what I've called for, you know, my supporters and volunteers

816
00:50:25,840 --> 00:50:28,560
Speaker 1: all across the state of Pennsylvania, they need to lean

817
00:50:28,640 --> 00:50:31,000
Speaker 1: into the fight buck right now. They need to be

818
00:50:31,560 --> 00:50:37,480
Speaker 1: door knocking, organizing fundraising, helping municipal candidates and local candidates

819
00:50:37,520 --> 00:50:40,880
Speaker 1: win at the local level. We win locally, will win congressionally,

820
00:50:40,920 --> 00:50:43,680
Speaker 1: will win statewide. Right, all of that is important. We

821
00:50:43,800 --> 00:50:46,880
Speaker 1: don't have the luxury of off seasons. Now there's going

822
00:50:46,960 --> 00:50:49,440
Speaker 1: to be a redistricting coming in the state of Pennsylvania.

823
00:50:49,880 --> 00:50:52,719
Speaker 1: You know, people in constituents across across the state of

824
00:50:52,760 --> 00:50:55,759
Speaker 1: Pennsylvania should be calling their state legislators and working with

825
00:50:55,880 --> 00:50:59,520
Speaker 1: them and telling them what their feelings are about redistricting.

826
00:51:00,040 --> 00:51:02,839
Speaker 1: Because it's a Republican controlled legislature, we control the power there.

827
00:51:02,880 --> 00:51:05,400
Speaker 1: We need to wheel it like the Democrats would field it. Right, So,

828
00:51:05,880 --> 00:51:08,239
Speaker 1: there are lots of very productive things that we can

829
00:51:08,280 --> 00:51:10,440
Speaker 1: be doing right now. And yes, our backs are against

830
00:51:10,719 --> 00:51:12,480
Speaker 1: or against the wall, but it doesn't mean we're out

831
00:51:12,520 --> 00:51:14,160
Speaker 1: of the fight. I gotta ask you, Sean before we

832
00:51:14,280 --> 00:51:18,520
Speaker 1: let you go. You are a decorated Army ranger served

833
00:51:18,560 --> 00:51:24,040
Speaker 1: in combat in Afghanistan. Uh CNN's most sanctimonious anchor Jake

834
00:51:24,120 --> 00:51:26,719
Speaker 1: Tapper referring to Brian Mast, who is a member of

835
00:51:26,800 --> 00:51:30,440
Speaker 1: Congress who served in the military and lost his legs

836
00:51:31,120 --> 00:51:34,520
Speaker 1: fighting for this country abroad. Jake Tapper's comment was, quote

837
00:51:34,600 --> 00:51:37,080
Speaker 1: Congressman Brian Mast, who lost his legs, by the way,

838
00:51:37,160 --> 00:51:40,480
Speaker 1: fighting for democracy abroad, although I don't know about his

839
00:51:40,560 --> 00:51:44,160
Speaker 1: commitment to it here in the United States. What do

840
00:51:44,200 --> 00:51:47,800
Speaker 1: you say to that? Yeah, well, Brian Mast is a

841
00:51:47,880 --> 00:51:50,880
Speaker 1: friend of mine and and quite I am so disappointed

842
00:51:50,920 --> 00:51:55,040
Speaker 1: in Jake, right, It's Jake is someone to It's just

843
00:51:55,160 --> 00:51:57,880
Speaker 1: an event that your listeners don't know. Um, Jake is

844
00:51:57,920 --> 00:52:02,440
Speaker 1: someone that that writes books about military veterans, that talks

845
00:52:02,480 --> 00:52:07,280
Speaker 1: about military veterans a lot publicly, and and and acts

846
00:52:07,440 --> 00:52:10,040
Speaker 1: as if he's a big supporter of military makes money

847
00:52:10,360 --> 00:52:14,759
Speaker 1: right on the backs of military members service. So but

848
00:52:14,920 --> 00:52:19,080
Speaker 1: then to turn around and say something like that about

849
00:52:19,280 --> 00:52:23,200
Speaker 1: a Republican member of Congress who you know, you can

850
00:52:23,320 --> 00:52:27,080
Speaker 1: disagree with the method, but there's there's still a constitutional

851
00:52:27,160 --> 00:52:30,439
Speaker 1: process and structure to raise those questions on the House floor.

852
00:52:31,000 --> 00:52:33,680
Speaker 1: Brian mass spot for his country. He lost his legs

853
00:52:34,360 --> 00:52:37,120
Speaker 1: overseas defending democracy. And believe me when I tell you,

854
00:52:37,640 --> 00:52:42,480
Speaker 1: the man loves freedom of speech, loves the Constitution. May

855
00:52:42,560 --> 00:52:45,120
Speaker 1: not always agree with what others have to say about him,

856
00:52:45,160 --> 00:52:47,920
Speaker 1: but he'll he'll go to his grave trying to protect it.

857
00:52:48,320 --> 00:52:50,520
Speaker 1: And for Jake Tapper to single him out as a

858
00:52:50,560 --> 00:52:54,000
Speaker 1: double amputee, as somebody who has sacrificed so much for

859
00:52:54,160 --> 00:52:59,840
Speaker 1: his country, it's just disgusting. It's just disgusting. Sean Bornell,

860
00:52:59,840 --> 00:53:02,560
Speaker 1: every buddy, check out Outlaw Platoon. If you haven't already,

861
00:53:02,800 --> 00:53:05,920
Speaker 1: you should get it on wherever you get books. Sean,

862
00:53:06,120 --> 00:53:09,959
Speaker 1: good to see you. My friend will talk soon. Thanks, Buck,

863
00:53:10,000 --> 00:53:15,279
Speaker 1: take care you're in the Freedom Hunt. This is the

864
00:53:15,440 --> 00:53:23,200
Speaker 1: Buck Sex and Show podcast because Congressman Brian Masked, a

865
00:53:23,280 --> 00:53:25,960
Speaker 1: Republican from Florida who lost his legs by the way,

866
00:53:26,000 --> 00:53:28,960
Speaker 1: fighting for democracy abroad. Although I don't know what his

867
00:53:29,920 --> 00:53:31,680
Speaker 1: I don't know about his commitment to it here in

868
00:53:31,680 --> 00:53:34,680
Speaker 1: the United States. He said, did anybody say that, Yes, yeah,

869
00:53:34,719 --> 00:53:37,560
Speaker 1: we heard him. Answers, Yes, there you go. That's that's

870
00:53:37,640 --> 00:53:40,959
Speaker 1: that's Jake Tapper, all about the vet said all about

871
00:53:41,000 --> 00:53:43,600
Speaker 1: all about the troops. Jake Tapper, sure, sure, you know

872
00:53:43,680 --> 00:53:46,320
Speaker 1: if you criticize John McCain, his favorite thing to do

873
00:53:46,600 --> 00:53:50,480
Speaker 1: was always John McCain's a hero. And remember he only

874
00:53:50,640 --> 00:53:52,239
Speaker 1: was doing that because he hates Trump so much and

875
00:53:52,400 --> 00:53:55,400
Speaker 1: was using the McCain, the McCain wing of the GOP

876
00:53:55,680 --> 00:53:58,000
Speaker 1: as a as a way of attacking Trump, and Trump

877
00:53:58,040 --> 00:53:59,960
Speaker 1: said things about McCain that we're not nice. We all

878
00:54:00,120 --> 00:54:03,200
Speaker 1: know that, but it was always a shield. You can't

879
00:54:03,200 --> 00:54:06,759
Speaker 1: actually criticize John McCain, the Democrats would say when it

880
00:54:06,800 --> 00:54:09,600
Speaker 1: was useful for bashing Trump because of his military service.

881
00:54:09,920 --> 00:54:12,080
Speaker 1: But now here you've got a guy that lost his

882
00:54:12,280 --> 00:54:16,719
Speaker 1: legs in honorable and brave service first country overseas. And

883
00:54:16,800 --> 00:54:19,520
Speaker 1: Jake Tappers as well, he fought first country overseas, but

884
00:54:19,560 --> 00:54:21,960
Speaker 1: it's not clear that he cares about democracy here at home.

885
00:54:22,400 --> 00:54:26,439
Speaker 1: Oh oh, okay, just just remember the next time Jake

886
00:54:26,520 --> 00:54:28,759
Speaker 1: starts tweeting out, I love the troops. I love the

887
00:54:28,800 --> 00:54:32,319
Speaker 1: troops so much. I'm all about the troops. I've never

888
00:54:32,400 --> 00:54:36,719
Speaker 1: seen anybody in media who has never actually spent any

889
00:54:36,840 --> 00:54:39,840
Speaker 1: part of his life anywhere near serving the country, in

890
00:54:39,920 --> 00:54:43,560
Speaker 1: the military, in the state department, you know, anywhere. I've

891
00:54:43,600 --> 00:54:46,800
Speaker 1: never seen somebody who was such a fixation on promoting

892
00:54:47,160 --> 00:54:49,960
Speaker 1: others service. It seems as a means of promoting how

893
00:54:50,080 --> 00:54:54,080
Speaker 1: great he is. But that all falls away the moment

894
00:54:54,200 --> 00:54:58,200
Speaker 1: that you see an opportunity to attack somebody who was

895
00:54:58,239 --> 00:55:02,279
Speaker 1: a Trump supporter in Congress, right, that's that's that's what

896
00:55:02,400 --> 00:55:04,839
Speaker 1: you have here. So it's gross, folks, but you're gonna

897
00:55:04,880 --> 00:55:07,200
Speaker 1: see a lot more of this. Remember the left, the

898
00:55:07,280 --> 00:55:09,480
Speaker 1: left didn't have any principles before. They're not gonna have

899
00:55:09,560 --> 00:55:13,040
Speaker 1: any now. I have principles on say, condemning political violence.

900
00:55:13,480 --> 00:55:15,480
Speaker 1: And that's why I know that some people don't like

901
00:55:16,040 --> 00:55:18,800
Speaker 1: hearing the truth about that, but it is true. Democrats

902
00:55:18,840 --> 00:55:22,840
Speaker 1: don't have that problem. They're just hypocrites. Thanks for listening

906
00:55:34,520 --> 00:55:37,880
Speaker 1: We had a number of folks in the GOP in

907
00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:40,840
Speaker 1: Congress who voted to impeach Trump. There's a lot of

908
00:55:40,880 --> 00:55:44,560
Speaker 1: talk about the intramural fighting that's going on. Well, one

909
00:55:44,680 --> 00:55:48,080
Speaker 1: group that has been trying to capitalize on that in

910
00:55:48,200 --> 00:55:52,040
Speaker 1: a whole bunch of ways is the Lincoln Project. Our

00:56:14,120 --> 00:56:18,040
Speaker 1: George Conway, Steve Schmidt, Rick Wilson. More famously, they're the

918
00:56:18,040 --> 00:56:20,680
Speaker 1: ones who go in television a lot, and they've raised

919
00:56:20,800 --> 00:56:24,960
Speaker 1: well over seventy five million dollars from very gullibal donors

920
00:56:25,400 --> 00:56:29,399
Speaker 1: to attack Trump. They've paid their own firms millions upon

921
00:56:29,440 --> 00:56:32,600
Speaker 1: millions dollars. I believe it is. Steve Schmidt was paid

922
00:56:32,680 --> 00:56:34,680
Speaker 1: over one point five or was paid exactly one point

923
00:56:34,719 --> 00:56:40,480
Speaker 1: five million dollars for one month's work between November and December,

924
00:56:40,600 --> 00:56:42,680
Speaker 1: so after the presidential election, he was already paid one

925
00:56:42,719 --> 00:56:45,160
Speaker 1: point five million dollars for one month of work. They

926
00:56:45,280 --> 00:56:47,680
Speaker 1: raised millions upon millions of dollars to attack Trump and

927
00:56:47,760 --> 00:56:51,480
Speaker 1: all Republicans. They spent millions against Susan Collins millions against

928
00:56:51,520 --> 00:56:55,319
Speaker 1: Tom Tillis. I mean, it's not just Trump, it's ball Republicans. Now,

929
00:56:55,880 --> 00:56:58,640
Speaker 1: who were they raising before we get to your article,

930
00:56:58,680 --> 00:57:02,359
Speaker 1: which is I think we could describe as as um

931
00:57:03,280 --> 00:57:06,719
Speaker 1: sillacious the content where we're talking about here with this guy.

932
00:57:08,160 --> 00:57:10,520
Speaker 1: Who are they raising? Because people say that they're raising

933
00:57:10,600 --> 00:57:12,839
Speaker 1: some of them from left wing donors, so it's kind

934
00:57:12,840 --> 00:57:16,240
Speaker 1: of a false flag style project where they're pretending to

935
00:57:16,280 --> 00:57:18,520
Speaker 1: be one thing, but they're actually getting money from the left.

936
00:57:18,960 --> 00:57:21,680
Speaker 1: But are there conservative donors who are giving the Lincoln

937
00:57:21,720 --> 00:57:25,040
Speaker 1: Project money or you know, Republican donors we're giving additional

938
00:57:25,160 --> 00:57:28,520
Speaker 1: Republicans who are like the Cindy McCain Republicans who are

939
00:57:28,560 --> 00:57:31,320
Speaker 1: just repulsed by Trump's behaviors, so they give them money.

940
00:57:31,680 --> 00:57:34,200
Speaker 1: It's I mean, and who gives to campaigns? Who gives

941
00:57:34,240 --> 00:57:36,320
Speaker 1: the path? I mean most of them are most people

942
00:57:36,360 --> 00:57:37,920
Speaker 1: who donate a lot, not most, but a lot of

943
00:57:37,920 --> 00:57:40,880
Speaker 1: people who donate. Our older people who maybe some are

944
00:57:41,120 --> 00:57:43,360
Speaker 1: Republicans or from a Republicans who were turned off by

945
00:57:43,360 --> 00:57:46,160
Speaker 1: Trump's attitude or behavior, so they gave, you know, their

946
00:57:46,280 --> 00:57:49,000
Speaker 1: hundred thousand dollars and they're being swindled out of it,

947
00:57:49,080 --> 00:57:52,120
Speaker 1: and they deserve as much as anybody does to know

948
00:57:52,240 --> 00:57:55,560
Speaker 1: the truth of this organization. Now, I mean, seventy five

949
00:57:55,600 --> 00:57:59,240
Speaker 1: million dollars seems like a lot of money for something

950
00:57:59,320 --> 00:58:03,120
Speaker 1: like this, A lot of money, and tell me what,

951
00:58:03,440 --> 00:58:08,280
Speaker 1: what do we need to know about John Weaver? Right, So,

952
00:58:08,400 --> 00:58:11,400
Speaker 1: one of the organization's founders. His name is John Weaver.

953
00:58:11,560 --> 00:58:15,160
Speaker 1: He was a former McCain consultant. He ran the John

954
00:58:15,240 --> 00:58:19,720
Speaker 1: Huntsman campaign. He was on the John Casa campaign. John

955
00:58:19,880 --> 00:58:22,280
Speaker 1: Weaver followed me on Twitter over the summer, which I

956
00:58:22,360 --> 00:58:24,440
Speaker 1: have a fairly large Twitter following, but I didn't. But

957
00:58:24,720 --> 00:58:27,920
Speaker 1: I thought I thought it odds since I'm openly supportive

958
00:58:27,920 --> 00:58:31,240
Speaker 1: of the president um and he runs his anti President

959
00:58:31,280 --> 00:58:35,240
Speaker 1: Trump organization. Well, within a day of him following me,

960
00:58:35,680 --> 00:58:37,960
Speaker 1: young men were messaging me saying, you know, be on

961
00:58:38,040 --> 00:58:42,120
Speaker 1: the lookout. He uh. He reaches out to younger guys,

962
00:58:42,320 --> 00:58:45,440
Speaker 1: is that they're offered them career advice, and then changes

963
00:58:45,520 --> 00:58:48,880
Speaker 1: to approaching them to asking them for sex or questioning

964
00:58:48,920 --> 00:58:51,400
Speaker 1: about sex and wanting to show them to call him

965
00:58:51,440 --> 00:58:54,560
Speaker 1: and an approach him in some kind of sexual manner.

966
00:58:56,440 --> 00:58:58,960
Speaker 1: This was the accusation lobby. So I try to get

967
00:58:59,080 --> 00:59:02,479
Speaker 1: a month trying to get a source on record because

968
00:59:02,480 --> 00:59:04,640
Speaker 1: I needed one. I'm not the Washington Post, so I

969
00:59:04,720 --> 00:59:07,760
Speaker 1: need one on record source to come forward to admit

970
00:59:08,000 --> 00:59:11,840
Speaker 1: that this happened to them and to make this accusation public.

971
00:59:11,880 --> 00:59:15,560
Speaker 1: I can't just use anonymous sources. Well, I couldn't get one.

972
00:59:15,720 --> 00:59:18,000
Speaker 1: People were afraid. These are young guys. You guys in

973
00:59:18,000 --> 00:59:20,400
Speaker 1: their early twenties, and John Weavers man who's sixty one

974
00:59:20,520 --> 00:59:22,400
Speaker 1: years old and has a lot of money and a

975
00:59:22,480 --> 00:59:24,840
Speaker 1: lot of lawyers, and they were afraid of their careers

976
00:59:24,880 --> 00:59:29,080
Speaker 1: being destroyed before they started. Finally, over the weekend, I

977
00:59:29,320 --> 00:59:31,640
Speaker 1: was so frustrated with some of the tweets out the

978
00:59:32,120 --> 00:59:35,600
Speaker 1: Lincoln Project that they were going to start tracking every

979
00:59:35,760 --> 00:59:37,640
Speaker 1: employee of the Trump White House. Some of these people

980
00:59:37,640 --> 00:59:39,520
Speaker 1: are in their twenties and thirties and just trying their life,

981
00:59:39,760 --> 00:59:42,760
Speaker 1: trying to make them unhirable, that I said, maybe I

982
00:59:42,800 --> 00:59:45,600
Speaker 1: should reveal the story of a Lincoln Project founder who

983
00:59:45,800 --> 00:59:49,120
Speaker 1: was approaching young men for sex and promising them work

984
00:59:49,160 --> 00:59:51,840
Speaker 1: that never materialized, or maybe his wife would like to know.

985
00:59:53,040 --> 00:59:58,000
Speaker 1: And then and then within and I included the favorite

986
00:59:58,040 --> 01:00:00,800
Speaker 1: euphemism that John Weaver uses in most his messages which

987
01:00:00,880 --> 01:00:03,640
Speaker 1: he calls these young men my boy, which is really

988
01:00:03,720 --> 01:00:06,680
Speaker 1: gross and creepy, but he does it all the time. Anyway,

989
01:00:06,720 --> 01:00:09,800
Speaker 1: I tweet this out and people started coming forward and

990
01:00:10,040 --> 01:00:12,320
Speaker 1: claimed saying, this is what happened to me that John

991
01:00:12,360 --> 01:00:14,479
Speaker 1: Weaver did. So I finally I had on the record

992
01:00:14,600 --> 01:00:16,600
Speaker 1: people because people were posting on their own social media,

993
01:00:16,880 --> 01:00:20,760
Speaker 1: and I was able to write the story of all

994
01:00:20,800 --> 01:00:22,720
Speaker 1: these men. There's a writer name by the name of

995
01:00:22,760 --> 01:00:25,800
Speaker 1: Scott Steedman. He runs a website called forensic News. Never

996
01:00:25,920 --> 01:00:28,160
Speaker 1: heard of it. He's a left winger. He wrote a

997
01:00:28,200 --> 01:00:30,120
Speaker 1: book about Trump and Rushigate and all the rest of it.

998
01:00:30,200 --> 01:00:32,880
Speaker 1: But but John Weaver wrote a blur for his book.

999
01:00:32,960 --> 01:00:35,720
Speaker 1: He has a professional relations with John Weaver, and he

1000
01:00:35,880 --> 01:00:39,560
Speaker 1: admitted John Weaver did this to him, and he wrote

1001
01:00:39,600 --> 01:00:42,880
Speaker 1: an article and between Steadman's article and how many how

1002
01:00:42,880 --> 01:00:45,680
Speaker 1: many sources he claims the number of people have come

1003
01:00:45,680 --> 01:00:49,080
Speaker 1: to be able to privately empily and people who posted

1004
01:00:49,120 --> 01:00:51,880
Speaker 1: on their own social media John Weaver's messages, it's well

1005
01:00:52,000 --> 01:00:55,200
Speaker 1: over sixty young men have come forward and said John

1006
01:00:55,240 --> 01:00:58,720
Speaker 1: Weaver approached him in a sexual manner, offering career advice

1007
01:00:58,920 --> 01:01:02,240
Speaker 1: or career opportunity. Is an exchange for sex, so so

1008
01:01:02,480 --> 01:01:05,800
Speaker 1: so to be clear, this would be under the h

1009
01:01:06,280 --> 01:01:09,040
Speaker 1: This would be under the general umbrella of of of

1010
01:01:09,240 --> 01:01:13,040
Speaker 1: gross and harassing behavior. But there's no there's no allegation

1011
01:01:13,600 --> 01:01:16,880
Speaker 1: of actual illegality in any of this. Right. The men

1012
01:01:16,920 --> 01:01:19,840
Speaker 1: are of age and everything out there's no manner of

1013
01:01:19,920 --> 01:01:22,480
Speaker 1: age that I know of, But I cannot comment on

1014
01:01:22,960 --> 01:01:26,440
Speaker 1: if there's nothing illegal because I don't know everyone's story.

1015
01:01:26,520 --> 01:01:29,600
Speaker 1: I mean, these are this is a four day old

1016
01:01:29,680 --> 01:01:33,280
Speaker 1: story that sixty people have come forward sharing messages, and

1017
01:01:33,400 --> 01:01:35,720
Speaker 1: it's always with the context of I know there are

1018
01:01:35,880 --> 01:01:38,160
Speaker 1: worse and I know this is this is much worse

1019
01:01:38,200 --> 01:01:40,600
Speaker 1: than what I experience, and I do know cases that

1020
01:01:40,680 --> 01:01:43,760
Speaker 1: are much worse. But until any young man comes forward

1021
01:01:43,800 --> 01:01:46,800
Speaker 1: with anything and is willing to go on record, I

1022
01:01:46,960 --> 01:01:51,640
Speaker 1: can't say if anything is illegal. UM. That being said,

1023
01:01:52,400 --> 01:01:56,760
Speaker 1: the promise of UM of professional help in exchange for

1024
01:01:56,880 --> 01:02:01,080
Speaker 1: sexual favors um, and then that it's a form of grooming.

1025
01:02:01,640 --> 01:02:04,080
Speaker 1: I mean they he was, he was approaching these men

1026
01:02:04,440 --> 01:02:08,360
Speaker 1: and one clearly clearly highly clearly highly unethical and disgusting.

1027
01:02:08,480 --> 01:02:10,440
Speaker 1: But just just for all the listeners to make sure

1028
01:02:10,440 --> 01:02:13,680
Speaker 1: we're talking about uh, we're still all these children. These

1029
01:02:13,720 --> 01:02:17,000
Speaker 1: are men, These are these are adults Tres Yeah, yeah,

1030
01:02:17,080 --> 01:02:19,040
Speaker 1: these are not children. These are young men who are

1031
01:02:19,120 --> 01:02:24,440
Speaker 1: in range. The age ranges usually from nineteen to twenty four. Um,

1032
01:02:24,680 --> 01:02:26,800
Speaker 1: that's most of the men. Have you already gotten? Have

1033
01:02:26,880 --> 01:02:29,800
Speaker 1: you already gotten some some backlash about this amount? I

1034
01:02:29,840 --> 01:02:32,000
Speaker 1: know you are a Laura Ingraham show talking about it.

1035
01:02:32,400 --> 01:02:35,280
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I mean people liberals are like, how dare you?

1036
01:02:35,400 --> 01:02:37,960
Speaker 1: You didn't attack Trump? Well, I wasn't reporting on the

1037
01:02:37,960 --> 01:02:39,840
Speaker 1: Trump story. I couldn't make heads or tails of any

1038
01:02:39,880 --> 01:02:43,080
Speaker 1: of his alley at any allegations against him, And saying

1039
01:02:43,240 --> 01:02:45,360
Speaker 1: you are you can't be mad at You can be

1040
01:02:45,480 --> 01:02:47,280
Speaker 1: mad at one and not the other. Or because you

1041
01:02:47,320 --> 01:02:48,920
Speaker 1: didn't speak up against one, but you can't sea you

1042
01:02:48,920 --> 01:02:51,520
Speaker 1: cant speak against the other. That makes no sense whatsoever.

1043
01:02:51,960 --> 01:02:54,800
Speaker 1: I reached out to Lincoln Project. Um, they have not

1044
01:02:55,360 --> 01:02:58,200
Speaker 1: made any single statement. They never they never responded to

1045
01:02:58,280 --> 01:03:01,800
Speaker 1: all my inquiries. Um. John Weavers not responding to any

1046
01:03:01,840 --> 01:03:04,000
Speaker 1: inquiries on the SOCICT matter. He blocked me from Twitter

1047
01:03:04,120 --> 01:03:07,320
Speaker 1: right afterwards, ed as a few other high level link

1048
01:03:07,400 --> 01:03:11,480
Speaker 1: In Project members. The Lincoln Project has not said anything,

1049
01:03:11,520 --> 01:03:14,040
Speaker 1: but they did take down their web page that show

1050
01:03:14,280 --> 01:03:16,920
Speaker 1: John Weaver as a founding member. They got rid of

1051
01:03:16,960 --> 01:03:19,160
Speaker 1: it completely, and then they posted a link up the

1052
01:03:19,240 --> 01:03:23,080
Speaker 1: accounts you can Trust and ironically they posted every Lincoln

1053
01:03:23,080 --> 01:03:26,320
Speaker 1: member founder except for John Weaver. We're speaking to Ryan Grudusky,

1054
01:03:26,440 --> 01:03:29,280
Speaker 1: author of They're Not Listening. They's also got a piece

1055
01:03:29,360 --> 01:03:31,680
Speaker 1: up on the American American Conservative for talking about Now

1056
01:03:32,400 --> 01:03:35,520
Speaker 1: why should people in general? Now, No, forget about the

1057
01:03:35,600 --> 01:03:40,880
Speaker 1: John Weavers story, which is a powerful DC insider abuse

1058
01:03:41,520 --> 01:03:45,160
Speaker 1: abuse of power story. Right, That's that's why you wrote that. Well,

1059
01:03:45,160 --> 01:03:47,840
Speaker 1: why should people know about the link in project? How

1060
01:03:47,960 --> 01:03:52,200
Speaker 1: much of a problem has it been and will it be? Well,

1061
01:03:52,240 --> 01:03:55,480
Speaker 1: they haven't been very successful on their campaigns. Most of

1062
01:03:55,520 --> 01:03:57,320
Speaker 1: it is a grip. Most of their money goes to

1063
01:03:57,480 --> 01:04:02,120
Speaker 1: themselves or their companies or their LSU. They have. They

1064
01:04:02,160 --> 01:04:04,720
Speaker 1: spent a lot of money against Susan Collins, they failed,

1065
01:04:04,760 --> 01:04:09,240
Speaker 1: against Tom Tillis, they failed. They failed on many aspects

1066
01:04:09,280 --> 01:04:15,760
Speaker 1: of their campaigning. But nonetheless, this is not an unusual

1067
01:04:15,880 --> 01:04:20,840
Speaker 1: situation for people to grift. Grifting is very, very, very real,

1068
01:04:21,320 --> 01:04:23,160
Speaker 1: and I think there's a lot of people who give

1069
01:04:23,240 --> 01:04:27,080
Speaker 1: their their hard earned dollars to organizations thinking they're furthering

1070
01:04:27,760 --> 01:04:31,120
Speaker 1: um what their beliefs are, and most of it's going

1071
01:04:31,200 --> 01:04:34,640
Speaker 1: to salaries and lawyers, and very little of it goes

1072
01:04:34,680 --> 01:04:37,600
Speaker 1: to actually making a difference. And Lincoln Products not alone

1073
01:04:37,640 --> 01:04:40,880
Speaker 1: in that in that perspective um, but we are having

1074
01:04:41,000 --> 01:04:43,240
Speaker 1: We're at a point right now where we're having I

1075
01:04:43,360 --> 01:04:46,880
Speaker 1: can't tell you how any journalists are working on stories about,

1076
01:04:47,920 --> 01:04:51,720
Speaker 1: you know, Turning Point USA and what goes on their conferences,

1077
01:04:51,840 --> 01:04:53,920
Speaker 1: or Young Americans for Liberty, what goes on their with

1078
01:04:54,000 --> 01:04:57,920
Speaker 1: their institution, looking into right wing institutions, for anything in

1079
01:04:58,080 --> 01:05:01,680
Speaker 1: the discreet when you have a major, major player, I mean,

1080
01:05:01,680 --> 01:05:05,360
Speaker 1: the Lincoln Projects founders were on television as of as

1081
01:05:05,400 --> 01:05:08,720
Speaker 1: of today, almost a dozen times since the story broke

1082
01:05:08,800 --> 01:05:12,480
Speaker 1: on Monday, and no one has asked them even asked them, Hey,

1083
01:05:12,480 --> 01:05:15,040
Speaker 1: you have a co founder who's been accused dozens of

1084
01:05:15,160 --> 01:05:19,720
Speaker 1: times of sexual harassment, of offering jobs for sex, of

1085
01:05:19,840 --> 01:05:22,760
Speaker 1: approaching young men in a creepy manner dozens of times

1086
01:05:22,800 --> 01:05:24,560
Speaker 1: in just a few days. Do you have a comment

1087
01:05:24,600 --> 01:05:27,400
Speaker 1: on that. Nicole Wallace didn't ask it, Joe Scarbo didn't

1088
01:05:27,440 --> 01:05:30,040
Speaker 1: ask it, no one has asked it. Well, I think

1089
01:05:30,080 --> 01:05:32,240
Speaker 1: this raises a bigger issue right as well of what

1090
01:05:32,640 --> 01:05:36,120
Speaker 1: we can expect in the Biden administration in general from

1091
01:05:36,160 --> 01:05:39,840
Speaker 1: the press, whether it's a story that would fall under

1092
01:05:40,240 --> 01:05:44,000
Speaker 1: me too, or grifting or just general abuse of power.

1093
01:05:44,480 --> 01:05:47,600
Speaker 1: If it's not, if it's not a think I think

1094
01:05:47,640 --> 01:05:50,600
Speaker 1: the question, I think the question goes to even bigger

1095
01:05:50,680 --> 01:05:53,000
Speaker 1: part of it. They're running on this whole Trump is

1096
01:05:53,000 --> 01:05:56,720
Speaker 1: an unethical man. This is an unethical administration. Okay, fine,

1097
01:05:57,520 --> 01:06:00,720
Speaker 1: you want to make that claim. Make that claim. Who

1098
01:06:00,840 --> 01:06:04,240
Speaker 1: else in the Lincoln Project knew about John Weaver and

1099
01:06:04,320 --> 01:06:07,480
Speaker 1: his actions? So I could tell you I've had four

1100
01:06:07,640 --> 01:06:10,680
Speaker 1: people make accusations that at least four other Lincoln Project

1101
01:06:10,760 --> 01:06:14,280
Speaker 1: members knew about it openly and tried to suppress it.

1102
01:06:14,760 --> 01:06:17,720
Speaker 1: Now only did they try to They didn't try to

1103
01:06:18,040 --> 01:06:19,960
Speaker 1: tell John Weaver or out John Weaver. They tried to

1104
01:06:20,240 --> 01:06:23,120
Speaker 1: kill the story because they didn't want it to come forward.

1105
01:06:23,720 --> 01:06:27,080
Speaker 1: So this is and they are complicit then in sexual harassment,

1106
01:06:27,240 --> 01:06:30,200
Speaker 1: every single one of them that knew, and I guarantee

1107
01:06:30,240 --> 01:06:31,720
Speaker 1: you knew. And by the way, I will say this

1108
01:06:31,840 --> 01:06:33,920
Speaker 1: other thing about the John Weavers story. When I was

1109
01:06:34,240 --> 01:06:36,720
Speaker 1: getting close to publishing it the first time, over the summer,

1110
01:06:36,960 --> 01:06:40,680
Speaker 1: John Weaver had a heart attack quote unquote where the

1111
01:06:40,920 --> 01:06:42,880
Speaker 1: Lincoln Project cities as a heart at attack and whatever.

1112
01:06:43,120 --> 01:06:46,280
Speaker 1: I hired a private detective to reach out and to

1113
01:06:46,360 --> 01:06:48,920
Speaker 1: look at the nearby hospitals near his home in Texas

1114
01:06:49,000 --> 01:06:51,880
Speaker 1: and in Washington, DC. And there was no record of

1115
01:06:51,920 --> 01:06:56,280
Speaker 1: a John Weaver ever going to the hospital. But they

1116
01:06:56,320 --> 01:06:58,240
Speaker 1: didn't know why I was getting close to publishing the story.

1117
01:06:59,080 --> 01:07:03,520
Speaker 1: So I don't I think that this is a very

1118
01:07:03,760 --> 01:07:08,000
Speaker 1: nefarious organization that is doing things and suppressing stories. And

1119
01:07:08,080 --> 01:07:11,640
Speaker 1: if it happened, if it's now sixty accusations of either

1120
01:07:11,760 --> 01:07:18,160
Speaker 1: creepy texting or strange behavior or open harassment or you know,

1121
01:07:18,320 --> 01:07:21,480
Speaker 1: promising jobs for sex, and there's dozens and dozens in

1122
01:07:21,600 --> 01:07:25,000
Speaker 1: just a few days, what else is there? And unfortunately

1123
01:07:25,080 --> 01:07:27,640
Speaker 1: journalists in America they're looking for any other story that

1124
01:07:27,720 --> 01:07:30,720
Speaker 1: they could possibly do, rather than looking to an organization

1125
01:07:30,840 --> 01:07:33,400
Speaker 1: theories over seventy five million dollars in a single solitary year,

1126
01:07:33,720 --> 01:07:36,920
Speaker 1: take on the president and the Republican Party. Ryan Gerdusky,

1127
01:07:37,240 --> 01:07:40,040
Speaker 1: he's digging in, it's getting answers. Go check out his

1128
01:07:40,440 --> 01:07:45,240
Speaker 1: piece on the American Conservative the Lincoln Projects predator. Ryan,

1129
01:07:45,720 --> 01:07:50,520
Speaker 1: good to talk to you, Thank you so much. You're

1130
01:07:50,600 --> 01:07:54,240
Speaker 1: in the Freedom mud. This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast.

1131
01:07:57,920 --> 01:08:00,360
Speaker 1: We should be focused on bringing the nation together. Instead,

1132
01:08:00,440 --> 01:08:03,200
Speaker 1: Democrats are going to impeach the president for a second

1133
01:08:03,240 --> 01:08:07,320
Speaker 1: time one week, one week before he leaves office. Why

1134
01:08:07,960 --> 01:08:12,040
Speaker 1: Why politics and the fact that they want to they

1135
01:08:12,120 --> 01:08:15,360
Speaker 1: want to cancel the president. The president who cut taxes,

1136
01:08:15,360 --> 01:08:17,920
Speaker 1: the president who reduced regulations. The president prior to COVID

1137
01:08:18,120 --> 01:08:20,680
Speaker 1: had the greatest economy, lowest unemployment in fifty years. The

1138
01:08:20,720 --> 01:08:22,519
Speaker 1: president who got us out of the Iran deal, put

1139
01:08:22,560 --> 01:08:25,439
Speaker 1: the embassy in Jerusalem, rod hostage is home for North Korea,

1140
01:08:26,000 --> 01:08:28,320
Speaker 1: put three great justices on the Supreme Court, gave us

1141
01:08:28,320 --> 01:08:31,160
Speaker 1: a new NAPTA agreement, the Abraham Accords, the COVID vaccine,

1142
01:08:31,320 --> 01:08:35,040
Speaker 1: and who built the wall. It's about politics. This is

1143
01:08:35,040 --> 01:08:37,880
Speaker 1: about getting the president of the United States. They spied

1144
01:08:37,920 --> 01:08:40,760
Speaker 1: on his campaign before he was elected. Nineteen minutes into

1145
01:08:40,840 --> 01:08:44,600
Speaker 1: his presidency, they started the impeachment push. Three year Muller investigation,

1146
01:08:44,760 --> 01:08:49,720
Speaker 1: nineteen lawyers, forty agents, five hundred witnesses, twenty five hundred subpoenas,

1147
01:08:50,080 --> 01:08:53,880
Speaker 1: forty million dollars to find nothing. Impeachment Round one based

1148
01:08:53,920 --> 01:08:56,519
Speaker 1: on an anonymous whistle blower with no firsthand knowledge, who

1149
01:08:56,560 --> 01:08:58,840
Speaker 1: was biased against the president and who worked for Joe Biden,

1150
01:08:59,120 --> 01:09:02,320
Speaker 1: and now it's impeach a round two. It is Indeed,

1151
01:09:03,400 --> 01:09:05,960
Speaker 1: it has always been about getting this president, has always

1152
01:09:06,000 --> 01:09:14,080
Speaker 1: been about destroying Donald Trump, his presidency, his political movement, everything.

1153
01:09:15,160 --> 01:09:17,400
Speaker 1: And that's why it's so hard for many people now

1154
01:09:17,479 --> 01:09:19,320
Speaker 1: to see this as anything other than the last ditch

1155
01:09:19,400 --> 01:09:23,519
Speaker 1: effort to it. It wasn't enough to win the election.

1156
01:09:23,640 --> 01:09:26,920
Speaker 1: They have to get rid of Trumpism as an idea,

1157
01:09:27,360 --> 01:09:29,439
Speaker 1: as I've been saying to you, and that's why there's

1158
01:09:29,479 --> 01:09:31,800
Speaker 1: such a frenzy right now. On the one hand, they're

1159
01:09:31,840 --> 01:09:36,320
Speaker 1: telling us about unity, and on the other hand, they

1160
01:09:36,640 --> 01:09:41,760
Speaker 1: continue with this this push to divide us and to

1161
01:09:41,880 --> 01:09:47,560
Speaker 1: say that Trump supporters are bad people, that Trump supporters

1162
01:09:48,240 --> 01:09:52,439
Speaker 1: are on the wrong side of history because they voted

1163
01:09:52,600 --> 01:09:55,120
Speaker 1: for Donald Trump. That's what they're telling us, and that

1164
01:09:55,240 --> 01:09:59,719
Speaker 1: what they really want to see is a big breakup

1165
01:10:00,120 --> 01:10:06,200
Speaker 1: in the Republican Party. They want a GOP, a GOP

1166
01:10:06,400 --> 01:10:10,040
Speaker 1: that's at war with itself. Tom Friedman of the New

1167
01:10:10,120 --> 01:10:13,479
Speaker 1: York Times people still read this guy apparently play eighteen.

1168
01:10:14,040 --> 01:10:17,000
Speaker 1: I believe that the most important thing that can happen

1169
01:10:17,120 --> 01:10:19,519
Speaker 1: right now for the health of the country is that

1170
01:10:19,800 --> 01:10:24,200
Speaker 1: this rotten Republican party fracture, and that this is a

1171
01:10:24,439 --> 01:10:29,120
Speaker 1: party that is now marinated in and dominated by conspiracy theorists.

1172
01:10:29,640 --> 01:10:33,759
Speaker 1: It's been able to hold together basically under Trump because

1173
01:10:33,840 --> 01:10:36,040
Speaker 1: it had power. So, because it had the control of

1174
01:10:36,120 --> 01:10:39,639
Speaker 1: the Senate and control of the White House, Republicans could

1175
01:10:39,720 --> 01:10:44,160
Speaker 1: tell themselves this lie. I wouldn't let Trump babysit my

1176
01:10:44,280 --> 01:10:46,600
Speaker 1: kids or coach my kids little league team. But I

1177
01:10:46,680 --> 01:10:48,960
Speaker 1: love what he did on taxes, or what he did

1178
01:10:49,040 --> 01:10:53,960
Speaker 1: for Israel, or what he did for any number of issues.

1179
01:10:54,320 --> 01:10:57,120
Speaker 1: He doesn't have that power anymore. The Senate a Republicans

1180
01:10:57,160 --> 01:10:59,840
Speaker 1: don't have that power anymore. So I think this part

1181
01:11:00,200 --> 01:11:03,280
Speaker 1: is right for fracture. I can't think of anything more

1182
01:11:03,320 --> 01:11:06,800
Speaker 1: important right now, Brian, than that this party fracture between

1183
01:11:06,840 --> 01:11:10,680
Speaker 1: what I call principal Republicans, people like mc romney, Lisa Murkowski,

1184
01:11:11,080 --> 01:11:15,559
Speaker 1: and the unprincipled ones, because this is now Trump's party,

1185
01:11:15,880 --> 01:11:18,920
Speaker 1: and as long as it is Trump's party, it must

1186
01:11:19,280 --> 01:11:23,360
Speaker 1: be kept out of power. They're telling you what they're

1187
01:11:23,400 --> 01:11:26,920
Speaker 1: hoping for here, and they view this as essential. They

1188
01:11:27,040 --> 01:11:32,439
Speaker 1: want a weekend and almost annihilated GOP right now, and

1189
01:11:32,560 --> 01:11:35,639
Speaker 1: they think they can get it. And a suppressed GOP

1190
01:11:36,400 --> 01:11:40,439
Speaker 1: that is just steamrolled by the Biden Harris agenda, and

1191
01:11:40,600 --> 01:11:43,600
Speaker 1: they can get that too. This is not pie in

1192
01:11:43,640 --> 01:11:47,439
Speaker 1: the sky stuff they This is achievable for them, This

1193
01:11:47,680 --> 01:11:51,840
Speaker 1: is realistic for them. And that's why we have to

1194
01:11:51,920 --> 01:11:54,960
Speaker 1: take take stock of what the political calculations are here

1195
01:11:55,600 --> 01:11:58,880
Speaker 1: in trying to pull Republicans apart, why they want to

1196
01:11:58,960 --> 01:12:02,920
Speaker 1: do that so very badly. Thanks for listening to The

1199
01:12:12,040 --> 01:12:15,120
Speaker 1: country is divided. We all know that there are lies

1200
01:12:15,200 --> 01:12:18,200
Speaker 1: abroad in the land, spread by a desperate president who

1201
01:12:18,280 --> 01:12:23,080
Speaker 1: feels his power slipping away. We know that too. But

1202
01:12:23,240 --> 01:12:25,880
Speaker 1: I know this as well, that we here in this

1203
01:12:26,080 --> 01:12:30,160
Speaker 1: half have a sacred obligation to stand for truth, to

1204
01:12:30,360 --> 01:12:34,640
Speaker 1: stand up for the Constitution, to stand as guardians of

1205
01:12:34,720 --> 01:12:38,960
Speaker 1: the republic. Yeah, that's what Nancy Pelosi is, a guardian

1206
01:12:39,040 --> 01:12:43,000
Speaker 1: of the republic. Sure, sure, and all about the truth

1207
01:12:43,080 --> 01:12:47,080
Speaker 1: as well. Just ask her if she stood in the

1208
01:12:47,160 --> 01:12:50,760
Speaker 1: way of Americans getting checks to help them out during

1209
01:12:50,800 --> 01:12:54,200
Speaker 1: the pandemic, because, as we know, the government shut down

1210
01:12:54,280 --> 01:12:57,639
Speaker 1: people's businesses and shut down whole sectors of the economy.

1211
01:12:58,240 --> 01:12:59,960
Speaker 1: How good of an idea was that, By the way,

1212
01:13:00,560 --> 01:13:02,639
Speaker 1: just taking a little digression here, was that a smart

1213
01:13:02,680 --> 01:13:05,720
Speaker 1: thing to do to shut down so much? Did that

1214
01:13:05,800 --> 01:13:08,599
Speaker 1: really help us? You know, you have countries all over

1215
01:13:08,680 --> 01:13:10,919
Speaker 1: Europe now that are going into even more extreme shutdowns.

1216
01:13:10,960 --> 01:13:17,000
Speaker 1: In Italy is having finally a mass restaurant civil disobedience moment.

1217
01:13:17,040 --> 01:13:20,360
Speaker 1: I'm seeing this online where thousands of Italian restaurants are

1218
01:13:20,400 --> 01:13:23,920
Speaker 1: going to say, enough is enough. We're opening for business breakfast, lunch,

1219
01:13:23,960 --> 01:13:26,799
Speaker 1: and dinner. This is crazy. We're not doing this anymore.

1220
01:13:28,320 --> 01:13:32,720
Speaker 1: Switzerland is going into a greater degree of restriction, but

1221
01:13:32,760 --> 01:13:35,080
Speaker 1: they've tried to stay mostly open. I mean, all these

1222
01:13:35,120 --> 01:13:39,960
Speaker 1: countries having terrible issues with COVID nineteen, and remember when

1223
01:13:40,000 --> 01:13:42,639
Speaker 1: we were told that they had the answers. That's one

1224
01:13:42,680 --> 01:13:47,479
Speaker 1: reason why I'm so angry about all of this. Pelosi

1225
01:13:47,640 --> 01:13:49,760
Speaker 1: was one of the people saying this. But they made

1226
01:13:49,760 --> 01:13:52,120
Speaker 1: it seem all summer like if we just wore our

1227
01:13:52,200 --> 01:13:55,160
Speaker 1: masks and we did what the authorities told us, we'd

1228
01:13:55,200 --> 01:13:57,479
Speaker 1: all be okay. We wouldn't have this huge second wave.

1229
01:13:57,600 --> 01:14:01,280
Speaker 1: That was a lie that wasn't true. We all see it.

1230
01:14:02,160 --> 01:14:05,280
Speaker 1: They can tell us a million different ways, Oh we

1231
01:14:05,360 --> 01:14:07,320
Speaker 1: didn't you didn't do it the right way, or we

1232
01:14:07,400 --> 01:14:09,560
Speaker 1: didn't do it enough, or whatever. That's not what we

1233
01:14:09,640 --> 01:14:13,240
Speaker 1: were told. It was. Listen to us, do what we say.

1234
01:14:13,320 --> 01:14:16,639
Speaker 1: Now everything will be okay. That's clearly not what happened,

1235
01:14:17,720 --> 01:14:19,760
Speaker 1: and I'm really angry about it. I'll tell you I

1236
01:14:19,880 --> 01:14:23,439
Speaker 1: went last night to uh, I went last night to

1237
01:14:23,600 --> 01:14:26,000
Speaker 1: try to have a dinner with the with the with

1238
01:14:26,240 --> 01:14:30,040
Speaker 1: my girlfriend, who whose name is Deborah. I feel like

1239
01:14:30,080 --> 01:14:32,120
Speaker 1: I should not just refer to as the snow princess

1240
01:14:32,120 --> 01:14:34,800
Speaker 1: all the time. And we went to go to a

1241
01:14:34,920 --> 01:14:39,120
Speaker 1: restaurant here in the city and I got there before

1242
01:14:39,240 --> 01:14:42,240
Speaker 1: she did. And I walk in and I'm thinking, you know,

1243
01:14:42,320 --> 01:14:44,840
Speaker 1: I'm a good guy, because well I was just hungry.

1244
01:14:44,880 --> 01:14:46,759
Speaker 1: I I'm not some hero. But you know, I'm thinking, okay,

1245
01:14:46,960 --> 01:14:49,200
Speaker 1: I want to support local restaurants and you know, keep

1246
01:14:49,240 --> 01:14:51,200
Speaker 1: them going. And I could just order in, but I'm

1247
01:14:51,200 --> 01:14:53,080
Speaker 1: actually gonna go and pay us or you know, pay

1248
01:14:53,800 --> 01:14:56,000
Speaker 1: I'm giving bigger tips than I ever had to anyone

1249
01:14:56,040 --> 01:14:58,519
Speaker 1: who is a server at a place these days that

1250
01:14:58,560 --> 01:15:01,160
Speaker 1: I could eat. And this was an outside but kind

1251
01:15:01,200 --> 01:15:04,120
Speaker 1: of inside but really outside restaurant. And I show up

1252
01:15:04,160 --> 01:15:06,519
Speaker 1: and the guy just looks at me, who's the running

1253
01:15:06,520 --> 01:15:08,800
Speaker 1: the plays with a manager, And he's got his mask on,

1254
01:15:08,880 --> 01:15:12,160
Speaker 1: and I've got my mask on and and it's and

1255
01:15:12,360 --> 01:15:17,160
Speaker 1: and he says, uh, we're not seating anymore. I said, okay,

1256
01:15:17,520 --> 01:15:22,080
Speaker 1: I mean it's it's you're you guys say you're you

1257
01:15:22,320 --> 01:15:25,639
Speaker 1: close uh your or rather, you stopped seating at nine.

1258
01:15:25,760 --> 01:15:27,880
Speaker 1: He goes, no, we stopped seating at eight thirty, as

1259
01:15:27,960 --> 01:15:30,280
Speaker 1: of like you know now. And I look at my

1260
01:15:30,600 --> 01:15:33,120
Speaker 1: I look at my uh my clock on my phone.

1261
01:15:33,200 --> 01:15:36,680
Speaker 1: It's it's eight thirty one. So I'm like, okay, so

1262
01:15:36,880 --> 01:15:40,960
Speaker 1: you guys, your your website says you stopped seating at nine.

1263
01:15:41,680 --> 01:15:44,160
Speaker 1: You're say you stopped seating at eight thirty. I'm clearly here,

1264
01:15:44,200 --> 01:15:47,280
Speaker 1: I've clearly showed up, gone through the trouble of dressing

1265
01:15:47,320 --> 01:15:49,320
Speaker 1: warmly enough that I could eat at your restaurant. It's

1266
01:15:49,360 --> 01:15:52,200
Speaker 1: eight thirty one. I'm literally a minute, and you know,

1267
01:15:52,320 --> 01:15:54,719
Speaker 1: and then I just realized, you know what, also fine

1268
01:15:54,760 --> 01:15:56,559
Speaker 1: the guy was being, but he's probably had a bad

1269
01:15:56,640 --> 01:16:01,120
Speaker 1: day his restaurants. But I recognize I had a I

1270
01:16:01,280 --> 01:16:02,920
Speaker 1: had to sort of suppress it. Right away. I had

1271
01:16:02,960 --> 01:16:06,200
Speaker 1: a really a short fuse that was going off inside me.

1272
01:16:06,280 --> 01:16:08,040
Speaker 1: That usually isn't the case. I'm usually not somebody that

1273
01:16:08,120 --> 01:16:10,439
Speaker 1: gets I didn't get into the guy said oh okay,

1274
01:16:10,479 --> 01:16:12,120
Speaker 1: well that's a shame, and I just walked away. I didn't.

1275
01:16:12,160 --> 01:16:14,680
Speaker 1: I didn't make any problems or anything, but it was

1276
01:16:14,720 --> 01:16:18,000
Speaker 1: a reminder to me of we're all really sick of

1277
01:16:18,080 --> 01:16:21,800
Speaker 1: this nonsense. You know, we've all we're all losing patience

1278
01:16:21,920 --> 01:16:24,360
Speaker 1: with this and if we're not, we should be. Now

1279
01:16:24,400 --> 01:16:25,960
Speaker 1: that doesn't mean we take it out on people who

1280
01:16:26,000 --> 01:16:28,240
Speaker 1: are also struggling and try to get through their business.

1281
01:16:28,280 --> 01:16:30,360
Speaker 1: And to be clear, I didn't, but I could feel

1282
01:16:31,200 --> 01:16:37,360
Speaker 1: that this stress of this lockdown insanity is it's wearing

1283
01:16:37,439 --> 01:16:40,640
Speaker 1: on me now, even too, because usually a situation like that,

1284
01:16:40,960 --> 01:16:42,840
Speaker 1: I'd be like, oh, you know, okay, fine, you know,

1285
01:16:42,880 --> 01:16:45,519
Speaker 1: it's New York. There's plenty of places to go. But

1286
01:16:45,840 --> 01:16:49,760
Speaker 1: my first thought of my brain was was to get

1287
01:16:50,000 --> 01:16:52,760
Speaker 1: I got very I got very annoyed about it. It

1288
01:16:52,880 --> 01:16:54,439
Speaker 1: was a minor thing we had that having a great

1289
01:16:54,479 --> 01:16:57,040
Speaker 1: dinner at taifou went to another. I found another place

1290
01:16:57,080 --> 01:17:00,519
Speaker 1: that would deliver and it was fine, But I can

1291
01:17:00,760 --> 01:17:04,800
Speaker 1: I'm I'm impatient in a way, and I have a

1292
01:17:05,040 --> 01:17:08,439
Speaker 1: shorter temper than I than I know I know myself,

1293
01:17:08,520 --> 01:17:11,200
Speaker 1: and I'm not a short tempered person. And I was

1294
01:17:11,360 --> 01:17:14,639
Speaker 1: just on the edge of you know, really, it's sixty

1295
01:17:14,680 --> 01:17:16,880
Speaker 1: seconds late, why don't you go, you know, sixty seconds late,

1296
01:17:16,920 --> 01:17:18,840
Speaker 1: you don't want my money? Why don't you go blank yourself?

1297
01:17:19,120 --> 01:17:22,559
Speaker 1: And I'm saying, and that would have been wrong. I wouldn't.

1298
01:17:22,720 --> 01:17:25,479
Speaker 1: I'm not claiming that that's the right reaction there. Although

1299
01:17:25,479 --> 01:17:27,719
Speaker 1: the guy was being a little you know, but he's

1300
01:17:27,800 --> 01:17:30,439
Speaker 1: under pressure. I'm under pressure, that's the point. I'm trumaic

1301
01:17:30,760 --> 01:17:33,320
Speaker 1: trying to make. He's feeling the heat of keeping this

1302
01:17:33,479 --> 01:17:35,599
Speaker 1: business going. And they didn't, you know, they only had

1303
01:17:35,600 --> 01:17:38,000
Speaker 1: a few people eating there, and clearly they wanted more

1304
01:17:38,040 --> 01:17:40,120
Speaker 1: and and you know, and I'm trying to do my

1305
01:17:40,320 --> 01:17:42,720
Speaker 1: part for the for my own community by going to

1306
01:17:42,800 --> 01:17:45,439
Speaker 1: these businesses, even though I freeze my butt off when

1307
01:17:45,439 --> 01:17:47,880
Speaker 1: I'm sitting outside eating, but I'm trying to, you know,

1308
01:17:48,280 --> 01:17:52,120
Speaker 1: And we're all frustrated. As the point, we're all feeling it.

1309
01:17:53,520 --> 01:17:55,800
Speaker 1: And I had to take a step back and recognize

1310
01:17:55,880 --> 01:17:59,720
Speaker 1: that that it's affecting me even now too. Here we

1311
01:17:59,800 --> 01:18:02,680
Speaker 1: are a middle of January, and it just feels like,

1312
01:18:03,520 --> 01:18:05,760
Speaker 1: you know, it feels like there is no end in sight.

1313
01:18:05,840 --> 01:18:09,599
Speaker 1: I know, there's the Johnson and Johnson vaccine that's coming

1314
01:18:09,640 --> 01:18:12,880
Speaker 1: out today or sorry, that's coming out. The news story

1315
01:18:13,000 --> 01:18:15,320
Speaker 1: pardon me, came out today that the Johnson Johnson vaccine

1316
01:18:15,360 --> 01:18:17,840
Speaker 1: is looking good and that's a one dose vaccine which

1317
01:18:17,840 --> 01:18:20,760
Speaker 1: will be really a really big advantage. And it also

1318
01:18:20,800 --> 01:18:23,040
Speaker 1: I think can be stored at like forty degrees instead

1319
01:18:23,080 --> 01:18:26,440
Speaker 1: of the crazy low temperature that the other the moderna

1320
01:18:26,479 --> 01:18:30,200
Speaker 1: of vaccine and the fiser vaccines have to be stored at. So,

1321
01:18:30,840 --> 01:18:35,080
Speaker 1: you know, I just I was reminded in my own

1322
01:18:35,160 --> 01:18:38,880
Speaker 1: way of all we've gone through and the tension in

1323
01:18:38,960 --> 01:18:41,479
Speaker 1: this moment in the country. We're thinking about it so

1324
01:18:41,640 --> 01:18:44,519
Speaker 1: much in political terms, and that's certainly a big part

1325
01:18:44,560 --> 01:18:47,680
Speaker 1: of it right now, but there's also just this backdrop

1326
01:18:47,800 --> 01:18:52,480
Speaker 1: of we have not had normal human contact, normal human interaction,

1327
01:18:53,040 --> 01:18:56,439
Speaker 1: the back and forth that we rely on in our

1328
01:18:56,520 --> 01:18:58,400
Speaker 1: day to day. I mean, it's so much easier not

1329
01:18:58,560 --> 01:19:03,080
Speaker 1: to get all wrapped up in politics and unhealthy ways

1330
01:19:03,560 --> 01:19:05,760
Speaker 1: when you go out and you can see you know,

1331
01:19:06,400 --> 01:19:09,000
Speaker 1: family members for a great meal. It's at some place

1332
01:19:09,080 --> 01:19:11,080
Speaker 1: you want to go, you know, where you go out

1333
01:19:11,160 --> 01:19:13,640
Speaker 1: and you grab drinks with your buddies or with the

1334
01:19:13,720 --> 01:19:16,880
Speaker 1: ladies or whatever, you know, after work or just because

1335
01:19:16,960 --> 01:19:21,080
Speaker 1: you feel like it or whatever that really helps, you know,

1336
01:19:21,320 --> 01:19:24,240
Speaker 1: going to birthday parties, going to weddings, going to this.

1337
01:19:24,439 --> 01:19:27,600
Speaker 1: This keeps us all sane. It really does keeps us

1338
01:19:27,600 --> 01:19:29,880
Speaker 1: all saying. I mean, producer, I haven't I haven't seen

1339
01:19:30,600 --> 01:19:34,040
Speaker 1: my buddy here, my Radio Wingman producer Mark. I haven't

1340
01:19:34,040 --> 01:19:38,439
Speaker 1: seen Radio Wingman Mark in It's gonna be almost a

1341
01:19:38,560 --> 01:19:41,160
Speaker 1: year now, right, I mean, I haven't seen you in person.

1342
01:19:41,240 --> 01:19:44,240
Speaker 1: I think since is it February? It might be end

1343
01:19:44,280 --> 01:19:47,519
Speaker 1: of February, maybe very beginning in March. Yea. So so

1344
01:19:47,640 --> 01:19:49,720
Speaker 1: somebody that I'm talking to, and Mark and I are

1345
01:19:49,760 --> 01:19:53,400
Speaker 1: working together, you know, every day for hours, hours on end,

1346
01:19:53,920 --> 01:19:56,360
Speaker 1: and really just the two of us pulling together this show.

1347
01:19:56,720 --> 01:19:58,360
Speaker 1: I haven't even been able to see the guy in

1348
01:19:58,479 --> 01:20:03,120
Speaker 1: person in must a year. This is crazy. I mean,

1349
01:20:03,120 --> 01:20:05,280
Speaker 1: I remember when this first happened to us and the

1350
01:20:05,439 --> 01:20:08,559
Speaker 1: restaurants we're getting shut down. I thought I was being

1351
01:20:08,640 --> 01:20:10,680
Speaker 1: maybe a little too cautious. I figured, all right, you know,

1352
01:20:11,200 --> 01:20:13,920
Speaker 1: Mark and I'll be having Marguerite Is and Guac at

1353
01:20:13,960 --> 01:20:18,080
Speaker 1: a sidewalk cafe in New York by June or July. Nope,

1354
01:20:18,800 --> 01:20:20,800
Speaker 1: here we are now. They did open some things. I'm

1355
01:20:20,800 --> 01:20:22,439
Speaker 1: not saying that wouldn't have been possible, but I thought

1356
01:20:22,479 --> 01:20:25,559
Speaker 1: we'd be pretty much through the worst of it. When

1357
01:20:25,600 --> 01:20:28,960
Speaker 1: I was thinking about this in February and the initial lockdown,

1358
01:20:29,000 --> 01:20:30,760
Speaker 1: I thought, all right, maybe six months of this of

1359
01:20:30,880 --> 01:20:33,560
Speaker 1: this is going to be what we're dealing with. But no,

1360
01:20:33,680 --> 01:20:36,320
Speaker 1: now we're going on a year, and I'm just trying

1361
01:20:36,320 --> 01:20:38,960
Speaker 1: to tell you, I think that everybody, you all need

1362
01:20:39,000 --> 01:20:40,720
Speaker 1: to give yourself a break. You know, you all just

1363
01:20:40,800 --> 01:20:43,160
Speaker 1: think about how this is affecting you, even if you're

1364
01:20:43,320 --> 01:20:46,040
Speaker 1: in parts of the country that have been more open,

1365
01:20:46,120 --> 01:20:47,519
Speaker 1: even if you're in parts of the country that are

1366
01:20:47,640 --> 01:20:53,920
Speaker 1: less affected by this. Overall, let's all keep in mind

1367
01:20:54,960 --> 01:20:59,360
Speaker 1: that you're you're still feeling the stress or seeing the

1368
01:20:59,439 --> 01:21:02,240
Speaker 1: stress that other areas that are in most of your

1369
01:21:02,320 --> 01:21:06,160
Speaker 1: lockdowns are going through. And and you know that America

1370
01:21:06,200 --> 01:21:07,599
Speaker 1: is in a bad spot. And of course a lot

1371
01:21:07,640 --> 01:21:10,599
Speaker 1: of the economic stuff, the impacts of that are felt

1372
01:21:10,640 --> 01:21:15,679
Speaker 1: by everybody, are felt by everybody right now. So it's

1373
01:21:15,800 --> 01:21:17,640
Speaker 1: it's a tough time. I mean, it's this is not

1374
01:21:17,840 --> 01:21:22,120
Speaker 1: an easy period. So give yourself a break. Make sure

1375
01:21:22,160 --> 01:21:24,320
Speaker 1: that you're doing things that allow your mind to relax.

1376
01:21:24,439 --> 01:21:27,680
Speaker 1: Make sure you're doing things that let you reset that

1377
01:21:27,840 --> 01:21:29,599
Speaker 1: part of you that might get a little bit too

1378
01:21:30,600 --> 01:21:35,200
Speaker 1: overwhelmed or run down, or that's really necessary right now

1379
01:21:35,479 --> 01:21:39,840
Speaker 1: because the usual stuff is just not happening. I mean,

1380
01:21:39,880 --> 01:21:43,800
Speaker 1: the usual stuff out there is has been taken away

1381
01:21:43,840 --> 01:21:46,479
Speaker 1: from all of us, and if you're like me, it's

1382
01:21:46,479 --> 01:21:48,360
Speaker 1: starting to fray. It's starting to phray some of your

1383
01:21:48,400 --> 01:21:52,040
Speaker 1: nerves a little bit. You're starting to get starting to

1384
01:21:52,120 --> 01:21:55,559
Speaker 1: get really frustrated in ways that you're not even aware

1385
01:21:55,560 --> 01:21:57,040
Speaker 1: of until it starts to come out a little bit,

1386
01:21:57,080 --> 01:21:59,439
Speaker 1: you say to yourself, Wait a second, what what the

1387
01:21:59,520 --> 01:22:03,679
Speaker 1: heck is at? You know, I'm I'm usually very even tempered,

1388
01:22:03,720 --> 01:22:07,160
Speaker 1: and I feel like I haven't lost my temper recently,

1389
01:22:07,200 --> 01:22:10,000
Speaker 1: but I feel like it's closer to happening than it

1390
01:22:10,080 --> 01:22:12,240
Speaker 1: normally would be for much more minor things. And it's

1391
01:22:12,240 --> 01:22:14,840
Speaker 1: just because I'm sick of wearing my damn mask. I'm

1392
01:22:14,880 --> 01:22:16,720
Speaker 1: sick of not being able to see people. I'm sick

1393
01:22:16,760 --> 01:22:18,920
Speaker 1: of my family members being worried about their health and

1394
01:22:19,000 --> 01:22:21,519
Speaker 1: the lockdowns and all this stuff. And then on top

1395
01:22:21,600 --> 01:22:26,280
Speaker 1: of that you have Republicans are all terrorists, and you

1396
01:22:26,320 --> 01:22:29,080
Speaker 1: know Trump is hitler, and you know the government could

1397
01:22:29,120 --> 01:22:32,400
Speaker 1: fall at any moment because the right wing is about

1398
01:22:32,439 --> 01:22:38,160
Speaker 1: to have another violent insurrection. All this overheated, unfair, really

1399
01:22:38,320 --> 01:22:41,200
Speaker 1: damaging rhetoric out there, and it's a challenge. It's a

1400
01:22:41,280 --> 01:22:43,680
Speaker 1: challenging time in a lot of ways. And I think

1401
01:22:43,720 --> 01:22:46,760
Speaker 1: we're allowed to take a moment, take a pause to say, yeah,

1402
01:22:46,840 --> 01:22:50,240
Speaker 1: that's that's real. And I'm actually planning going out tonight

1403
01:22:50,760 --> 01:22:54,160
Speaker 1: to outdoor dining in New York and and I'm gonna

1404
01:22:54,200 --> 01:22:57,639
Speaker 1: have to get all dressed up, and you essentially it's

1405
01:22:58,040 --> 01:23:01,280
Speaker 1: producer Mark. Have you ever been to a at old

1406
01:23:01,360 --> 01:23:03,560
Speaker 1: school Giants foot I don't know if the stadium is

1407
01:23:03,560 --> 01:23:06,559
Speaker 1: better now, but I remember going to Giants Stadium when

1408
01:23:06,600 --> 01:23:11,320
Speaker 1: I was a kid in like winter, like December, right.

1409
01:23:11,360 --> 01:23:14,760
Speaker 1: I remember going to Giant Stadium going and I I

1410
01:23:15,080 --> 01:23:18,080
Speaker 1: was so cold and we were wearing I wore so

1411
01:23:18,240 --> 01:23:20,920
Speaker 1: much clothing that it was difficult to move. But you

1412
01:23:21,040 --> 01:23:24,360
Speaker 1: sat in these unheated seats out in the open air,

1413
01:23:24,880 --> 01:23:27,280
Speaker 1: and you sit there for three hours. We had a

1414
01:23:27,360 --> 01:23:30,320
Speaker 1: blanket on us, and I still remember freezing my butt off.

1415
01:23:30,840 --> 01:23:32,640
Speaker 1: Do you you've ever done that? I have not, but

1416
01:23:32,760 --> 01:23:35,240
Speaker 1: I have done it at City Field or Scha Stadium

1417
01:23:35,360 --> 01:23:38,720
Speaker 1: any April or September game because it's right on the bay,

1418
01:23:38,800 --> 01:23:40,439
Speaker 1: just like the meadow Lands, it's right on the water.

1419
01:23:40,800 --> 01:23:43,479
Speaker 1: You get the winds and it's freezing. I'll I say

1420
01:23:43,520 --> 01:23:46,439
Speaker 1: to myself over and over again, never ever going to

1421
01:23:46,520 --> 01:23:48,680
Speaker 1: another April Mets game, and yet I still end up

1422
01:23:48,680 --> 01:23:50,439
Speaker 1: there every year. I mean, I've done it. I've done

1423
01:23:50,439 --> 01:23:52,240
Speaker 1: a few times. I remember going. I think it was

1424
01:23:52,360 --> 01:23:56,160
Speaker 1: a West Point Army Navy football game when I was

1425
01:23:56,240 --> 01:23:59,000
Speaker 1: a kid, and I'm pretty sure I went to that

1426
01:23:59,080 --> 01:24:01,760
Speaker 1: unless I'm unless getting I'm talking about being eight or

1427
01:24:01,840 --> 01:24:04,400
Speaker 1: nine years old. But I just remember being freezing at

1428
01:24:04,479 --> 01:24:06,880
Speaker 1: these games. And yeah, the wind coming in in the

1429
01:24:06,960 --> 01:24:09,599
Speaker 1: Metal Lands is like nothing else. Don't they have Aren't

1430
01:24:09,600 --> 01:24:12,799
Speaker 1: they kind of bougie? Now? Aren't there some some stadiums

1431
01:24:12,840 --> 01:24:15,160
Speaker 1: that kind of have either heated seats or at least

1432
01:24:15,160 --> 01:24:17,840
Speaker 1: they're padded seats because I was sitting on you know,

1433
01:24:17,960 --> 01:24:21,920
Speaker 1: like the plastic bleacher fold down seats that we all know. No,

1434
01:24:22,080 --> 01:24:26,160
Speaker 1: the new stadium they built is just a monstrosity. It's awful.

1435
01:24:26,640 --> 01:24:28,360
Speaker 1: And they didn't put a roof on, which is probably

1436
01:24:28,400 --> 01:24:31,840
Speaker 1: the dumbest thing. Is that just a cost thing? I mean,

1437
01:24:31,880 --> 01:24:34,600
Speaker 1: why would they know the cost thing? Yeah, because like

1438
01:24:34,680 --> 01:24:37,719
Speaker 1: the Mets and Yankees both wanted retractable roofs. New York City,

1439
01:24:37,760 --> 01:24:40,200
Speaker 1: New York State would not pay for it. MetLife. I

1440
01:24:40,280 --> 01:24:43,000
Speaker 1: think a similar kind of thing in New Jersey where

1441
01:24:43,000 --> 01:24:45,360
Speaker 1: they wouldn't pay the extra money to get the retractable roof.

1442
01:24:46,360 --> 01:24:49,479
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, that's that's nuts, because yeah, they're I

1443
01:24:49,520 --> 01:24:51,639
Speaker 1: don't know if I've ever been so cold as being

1444
01:24:51,680 --> 01:24:54,280
Speaker 1: a kid sitting in the stands at Giants Stadium watching

1445
01:24:54,320 --> 01:24:58,000
Speaker 1: an NFL game, and and I even think I was

1446
01:24:58,080 --> 01:25:02,680
Speaker 1: wearing like uh, like no pets. It was still the coldest,

1447
01:25:03,080 --> 01:25:05,240
Speaker 1: still the coldest I think I've ever been in my life.

1448
01:25:05,840 --> 01:25:08,800
Speaker 1: You've been to more NFL games than I have. I

1449
01:25:09,160 --> 01:25:12,560
Speaker 1: might mights and my dad. I've got two brothers and

1450
01:25:12,640 --> 01:25:15,760
Speaker 1: a dad, and they're like normal, They're normal American. They're

1451
01:25:15,840 --> 01:25:19,599
Speaker 1: normal red blooded Americans who like professional sports and uh

1452
01:25:20,080 --> 01:25:22,720
Speaker 1: and driving fast cars and things like that. I'm the

1453
01:25:22,800 --> 01:25:25,439
Speaker 1: one that's you know, I don't know, I don't really

1454
01:25:25,520 --> 01:25:28,240
Speaker 1: care yeah, I'm the weird one. But my my two brothers,

1455
01:25:28,320 --> 01:25:32,240
Speaker 1: my I've my brothers win their fantasy football leagues in

1456
01:25:32,320 --> 01:25:34,560
Speaker 1: many years, and there's real money. There's like ten or

1457
01:25:34,600 --> 01:25:36,360
Speaker 1: fifteen grand on the line for the winner. I mean

1458
01:25:36,400 --> 01:25:39,760
Speaker 1: there's actual money involved here. Uh so they do very

1459
01:25:39,800 --> 01:25:45,000
Speaker 1: well with that. Yeah, I mean that's not obviously the

1460
01:25:45,080 --> 01:25:46,880
Speaker 1: buying fee, but that if you win the whole thing.

1461
01:25:46,960 --> 01:25:48,920
Speaker 1: I think I think one of my brothers got something

1462
01:25:49,000 --> 01:25:52,000
Speaker 1: like that one year, So they're really into all that stuff. Anyway,

1463
01:25:52,120 --> 01:25:54,600
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be freezing tonight, but I'll be with my

1464
01:25:54,680 --> 01:25:58,160
Speaker 1: little sister who has a brand new little baby. I

1465
01:25:58,200 --> 01:26:02,519
Speaker 1: don't know our baby's brand new, but sounds like a

1466
01:26:02,560 --> 01:26:04,920
Speaker 1: p yes, newborn, thank you. Brand new. Sounds like a

1467
01:26:05,000 --> 01:26:07,920
Speaker 1: product I'm selling, brand new, fresh off the shelf. Baby.

1468
01:26:08,360 --> 01:26:11,720
Speaker 1: That's my little nephew. But but I'm gonna be out it.

1469
01:26:11,760 --> 01:26:13,880
Speaker 1: We're going to a beast a night and we're just

1470
01:26:13,920 --> 01:26:16,479
Speaker 1: gonna be huddling. You know, they have these outdoor lamps,

1471
01:26:17,160 --> 01:26:20,360
Speaker 1: and that's great if you're in like Charleston, South Carolina.

1472
01:26:20,400 --> 01:26:22,639
Speaker 1: You know these heat lamps they have outside and it's

1473
01:26:23,120 --> 01:26:24,960
Speaker 1: you know, sixty degrees at night and you want a

1474
01:26:24,960 --> 01:26:28,400
Speaker 1: little extra toasty warmth near you. Uh, you know, it's

1475
01:26:28,439 --> 01:26:31,680
Speaker 1: like being at a fire pit in Dallas, Texas or

1476
01:26:31,760 --> 01:26:35,360
Speaker 1: something in you know, during a fifty five or sixty

1477
01:26:35,439 --> 01:26:39,040
Speaker 1: degree day, when it's thirty or twenty five degrees outside

1478
01:26:39,160 --> 01:26:42,000
Speaker 1: that heat lamp. It just keeps you alive. It doesn't

1479
01:26:42,040 --> 01:26:45,160
Speaker 1: make you comfortable. It just keeps you from actually having

1480
01:26:45,640 --> 01:26:49,120
Speaker 1: icicles form over your eyelids. But I'm going for it tonight,

1481
01:26:49,160 --> 01:26:52,200
Speaker 1: producer Mark. So, let's let's hope that I'm let's hope

1482
01:26:52,200 --> 01:26:55,519
Speaker 1: that I don't actually, you know, get frostbite. That will

1483
01:26:55,520 --> 01:26:58,040
Speaker 1: be good. Luck with that. I will be home and warm. Yeah,

1484
01:26:58,160 --> 01:27:03,040
Speaker 1: stay home and warm. You're in the Freedom Heart. This

1485
01:27:03,360 --> 01:27:09,920
Speaker 1: is the Buck Sex and Show podcast. I got diverted

1486
01:27:10,160 --> 01:27:15,000
Speaker 1: from talking about Nancy Pelosi. She's she's projecting herself as

1487
01:27:15,080 --> 01:27:18,960
Speaker 1: some great defender democracy, arbiter of truth, standing for the

1488
01:27:19,040 --> 01:27:21,000
Speaker 1: Republic and all this. I mean, Nancy Pelosi is a

1489
01:27:21,640 --> 01:27:24,160
Speaker 1: is a ruthless politician. You know that if you ask

1490
01:27:24,200 --> 01:27:28,200
Speaker 1: her what are her principles, this very rich, almost eighty

1491
01:27:28,280 --> 01:27:31,560
Speaker 1: year old woman from San Francisco, what what does she

1492
01:27:31,680 --> 01:27:36,360
Speaker 1: really care about? She would say things like I care

1493
01:27:36,400 --> 01:27:43,040
Speaker 1: about it wibbits liberated abb it's right to choose, and

1494
01:27:44,240 --> 01:27:48,840
Speaker 1: Beto elevating the people and the children. And you know,

1495
01:27:48,880 --> 01:27:53,240
Speaker 1: she would say stuff like that, and you would say, yeah,

1496
01:27:53,280 --> 01:27:55,920
Speaker 1: I mean that that those are the slogans, but she

1497
01:27:56,000 --> 01:27:58,240
Speaker 1: doesn't really care. No one actually thinks she really cares

1498
01:27:58,240 --> 01:27:59,880
Speaker 1: about any of that, right, No, no one really believes.

1499
01:28:00,880 --> 01:28:04,519
Speaker 1: And then you get to a step beyond that, where

1500
01:28:05,160 --> 01:28:07,559
Speaker 1: what has she said in the past. Right now, we're

1501
01:28:07,640 --> 01:28:11,280
Speaker 1: in this great moment of moral panic over what Trump

1502
01:28:11,479 --> 01:28:15,120
Speaker 1: said about, you know, in the moments before that Capitol

1503
01:28:15,200 --> 01:28:21,439
Speaker 1: Hill riot. But do Democrats always make sure that they're

1504
01:28:21,680 --> 01:28:24,599
Speaker 1: opposed to political violence? Is that something they do? Here's

1505
01:28:24,640 --> 01:28:31,519
Speaker 1: Pelosi talking about uprisings across the country. This was in

1506
01:28:31,640 --> 01:28:34,240
Speaker 1: twenty eighteen, so it's not reached a couple of years ago.

1507
01:28:34,600 --> 01:28:37,640
Speaker 1: Polay clip one. I just don't even know why there

1508
01:28:37,680 --> 01:28:40,240
Speaker 1: aren't uprisings all of the country. Maybe there will be.

1509
01:28:42,760 --> 01:28:45,920
Speaker 1: Why would there be uprisings, Nancy Pelosi? Oh, because Donald

1510
01:28:45,920 --> 01:28:48,640
Speaker 1: Trump is president. You're not getting what you want. I mean,

1511
01:28:48,800 --> 01:28:54,360
Speaker 1: uprising is a very specific thing to say. She didn't say,

1512
01:28:54,360 --> 01:28:56,519
Speaker 1: I don't know why there aren't more people, you know,

1513
01:28:56,760 --> 01:28:59,920
Speaker 1: organizing get out the vote. Drives or something she said uprising.

1514
01:29:01,120 --> 01:29:05,400
Speaker 1: But it's the same thing you see with BLM and

1515
01:29:06,400 --> 01:29:09,519
Speaker 1: the way that that the violence and the destruction from

1516
01:29:09,560 --> 01:29:12,840
Speaker 1: that is always excused. Here's a member of Congress, Spanburger,

1517
01:29:13,240 --> 01:29:17,640
Speaker 1: who's saying that the rights has had this violent, extremist

1518
01:29:17,720 --> 01:29:21,599
Speaker 1: ideology take hold. I doubt you's ever said something similar

1519
01:29:21,640 --> 01:29:24,600
Speaker 1: about BLM Play seven. The large concern that I have

1520
01:29:24,920 --> 01:29:26,960
Speaker 1: is not about a particular date. It's not just about

1521
01:29:27,040 --> 01:29:29,840
Speaker 1: January twentieth. It's not just about this upcoming weekend where

1522
01:29:29,880 --> 01:29:34,479
Speaker 1: it's expected that there's going to be events, be they

1523
01:29:34,600 --> 01:29:39,840
Speaker 1: violent altercations or anything else, at capitals across the country.

1524
01:29:40,000 --> 01:29:42,280
Speaker 1: The real issue that I think we need to focus

1525
01:29:42,320 --> 01:29:44,600
Speaker 1: on as an American people is that there is a

1526
01:29:45,720 --> 01:29:50,760
Speaker 1: violent and extreme ideology that has taken hold, that has

1527
01:29:50,880 --> 01:29:55,719
Speaker 1: been given safe harbor, if you will, in the political space,

1528
01:29:56,240 --> 01:29:58,800
Speaker 1: and we saw the results of what happens when that

1529
01:29:59,040 --> 01:30:01,640
Speaker 1: is able to fest and come to the forefront. We

1530
01:30:01,720 --> 01:30:04,800
Speaker 1: saw those results on January sixth. We're certainly preparing for

1531
01:30:04,880 --> 01:30:08,800
Speaker 1: those potential results over this weekend and at the inauguration.

1532
01:30:08,920 --> 01:30:11,200
Speaker 1: But it doesn't end there. Because it's an ideology and

1533
01:30:11,320 --> 01:30:13,920
Speaker 1: my background, as you mentioned, I'm a former CIA case

1534
01:30:13,960 --> 01:30:17,240
Speaker 1: officer and my background is a focus on on terrorism

1535
01:30:17,680 --> 01:30:22,040
Speaker 1: and the domestic violent extremists who took siege and and

1536
01:30:22,840 --> 01:30:27,320
Speaker 1: okay me, I'm a former CI analyst and her analysis

1537
01:30:27,360 --> 01:30:30,719
Speaker 1: of this as partisan trash. So there you go. Thanks

1551
01:31:25,760 --> 01:31:29,360
Speaker 1: back though, what's coming back? And uh yeah, we're we're working.

Speaker 1: We're working on all kinds of exciting projects going forward.

1553
01:31:33,479 --> 01:31:36,080
Speaker 1: Let's now jump into all this, although I did want

1554
01:31:36,120 --> 01:31:37,920
Speaker 1: to check in on our on our buddy producer Mark

1555
01:31:38,000 --> 01:31:40,800
Speaker 1: and see if he has any exciting plans for the

1556
01:31:40,880 --> 01:31:43,080
Speaker 1: rest of the week or the weekend. Oh yeah, the

1557
01:31:43,479 --> 01:31:46,479
Speaker 1: Rangers play the Islanders tonight. So that's the first game

1558
01:31:46,560 --> 01:31:48,840
Speaker 1: of the season for the Rangers. I'm very excited. So

1559
01:31:49,960 --> 01:31:53,240
Speaker 1: how how does one spot what what is? Now? I'm

1560
01:31:53,280 --> 01:31:55,760
Speaker 1: asking you to stereotype. Okay, I'm asking you to give

1561
01:31:55,840 --> 01:31:59,760
Speaker 1: me but what is the difference between your prototypical your

1562
01:32:00,040 --> 01:32:06,880
Speaker 1: standard Rangers fan and your standard Islanders fan. I had

1563
01:32:06,880 --> 01:32:09,360
Speaker 1: a feeling this and I'm not going there. Nope, no, no,

1564
01:32:09,439 --> 01:32:11,840
Speaker 1: you're not doing it. You're not doing it all. Come on,

1565
01:32:12,720 --> 01:32:15,599
Speaker 1: it's a great setup, but I'm not doing it. Oh man,

1566
01:32:16,360 --> 01:32:20,120
Speaker 1: Ranger fans tend to be from the city. Islander fans

1567
01:32:20,160 --> 01:32:22,600
Speaker 1: tend to be from Long Island. Oh look at that.

1568
01:32:22,880 --> 01:32:26,479
Speaker 1: Oh okay, I'll give you that one. Yeah, gee, really

1569
01:32:26,520 --> 01:32:28,760
Speaker 1: going on? I'm alledge there. Well, I'm not going to

1570
01:32:28,800 --> 01:32:31,360
Speaker 1: anger any listeners. If you're an Islander fan, good for you.

1571
01:32:31,600 --> 01:32:33,479
Speaker 1: But I'm a Ranger fan and I think the Rangers

1572
01:32:33,520 --> 01:32:36,040
Speaker 1: are a better franchise and their little brother is that better.

1573
01:32:36,479 --> 01:32:39,280
Speaker 1: There you go. Look at that. That's very, very very

1574
01:32:39,640 --> 01:32:42,120
Speaker 1: You heard a little brother, right, Yeah, I don't know

1575
01:32:42,120 --> 01:32:44,240
Speaker 1: how you would give him a noogie. That's kind of

1576
01:32:44,280 --> 01:32:47,040
Speaker 1: like the Rangers franchise against the Islanders franchise. I get you.

1577
01:32:47,200 --> 01:32:50,120
Speaker 1: What about the New Jersey Devils, they don't exist? Come on,

1578
01:32:50,920 --> 01:32:53,160
Speaker 1: are they a real things? They're a real thing, but

1579
01:32:53,280 --> 01:32:56,880
Speaker 1: oh nobody cares. They're not good. They've been bad the

1580
01:32:56,960 --> 01:32:59,120
Speaker 1: last couple of years. They were very good early two

1581
01:32:59,200 --> 01:33:01,439
Speaker 1: thousands they beat the Rangers. Wants to get to the

1582
01:33:01,520 --> 01:33:03,800
Speaker 1: finals instead of them in twenty twelve. I try to

1583
01:33:03,800 --> 01:33:06,280
Speaker 1: forget about that. But in terms of the New York

1584
01:33:06,360 --> 01:33:09,800
Speaker 1: sports landscape, if I'm being honest, there's one team, and

1585
01:33:09,960 --> 01:33:12,800
Speaker 1: there's one hockey team in New York. But there is

1586
01:33:12,880 --> 01:33:16,160
Speaker 1: that great Sinefeld episode where he's a big Devil's fans,

1587
01:33:16,360 --> 01:33:24,080
Speaker 1: David Putty, Yes, El Diablo the priest. That is actually

1588
01:33:24,120 --> 01:33:29,120
Speaker 1: a very funny. That's a very memorable Sinefeld episode. All right,

1589
01:33:29,479 --> 01:33:32,040
Speaker 1: let's get to what folks thoughts are here in roll

1590
01:33:32,080 --> 01:33:34,160
Speaker 1: Call and thank you again all of you for a

1591
01:33:34,240 --> 01:33:38,679
Speaker 1: writing Again, we appreciate it. Brad Hey Bucker, producer Mark.

1592
01:33:39,240 --> 01:33:42,640
Speaker 1: Last week was a disaster for the conservative movement. I

1593
01:33:42,760 --> 01:33:45,960
Speaker 1: agree with you that President Trump handled the post election poorly.

1594
01:33:46,400 --> 01:33:49,040
Speaker 1: I agree what happened at the Capitol was one percent wrong.

1595
01:33:49,600 --> 01:33:52,200
Speaker 1: But what we conservatives must not lose sight of is

1596
01:33:52,280 --> 01:33:54,720
Speaker 1: our man in the swamp, the one who is there

1597
01:33:54,760 --> 01:33:57,320
Speaker 1: to drain it but is getting swallowed by the vastness

1598
01:33:57,479 --> 01:33:59,880
Speaker 1: of it. Fifty years from now, we'll look back on

1599
01:34:00,000 --> 01:34:03,080
Speaker 1: our greatest president we ever had. Right now everyone is

1600
01:34:03,120 --> 01:34:05,200
Speaker 1: turning their backs on him. I really hope we can

1601
01:34:05,240 --> 01:34:07,840
Speaker 1: all use this time to be to peacefully refocused and

1602
01:34:07,960 --> 01:34:12,120
Speaker 1: find that lockstep that the left has been so successful with.

1603
01:34:12,280 --> 01:34:16,200
Speaker 1: Shield's Eye. Brad, really really thoughtful note to us, Thank

1604
01:34:16,240 --> 01:34:18,600
Speaker 1: you so much. And yeah, I look at the totality

1605
01:34:18,640 --> 01:34:22,160
Speaker 1: of the Trump presidency, I still think that Trump was

1606
01:34:22,360 --> 01:34:26,439
Speaker 1: overall a very successful president that pursued policies that I

1607
01:34:26,520 --> 01:34:29,479
Speaker 1: agree with. I think the pandemic was awful for the

1608
01:34:29,520 --> 01:34:33,639
Speaker 1: whole world and really made uh, you know, it created

1609
01:34:33,800 --> 01:34:37,840
Speaker 1: enormous challenges for successful governance in the economy and everything

1610
01:34:37,880 --> 01:34:40,720
Speaker 1: else in Trump's final year of his first term. And

1611
01:34:41,160 --> 01:34:43,920
Speaker 1: I think that the the approach that he took after

1612
01:34:44,040 --> 01:34:48,080
Speaker 1: the election, with the way he was talking about things,

1613
01:34:48,160 --> 01:34:51,120
Speaker 1: it it went too far. Now, it didn't go too far,

1614
01:34:51,240 --> 01:34:54,800
Speaker 1: as in he caused the insurrection, but saying that he

1615
01:34:55,200 --> 01:34:58,760
Speaker 1: won in a landslide and repeating that constantly and telling

1616
01:34:58,760 --> 01:35:01,920
Speaker 1: everybody the election was stall and that that was and

1617
01:35:01,960 --> 01:35:03,760
Speaker 1: I actually would have been I wouldn't have even said

1618
01:35:03,840 --> 01:35:05,960
Speaker 1: much about that for a week or two after the election,

1619
01:35:06,120 --> 01:35:09,080
Speaker 1: or maybe a little beyond that, with the idea that

1620
01:35:09,200 --> 01:35:11,439
Speaker 1: he was going to have the presentation of evidence to

1621
01:35:12,240 --> 01:35:17,320
Speaker 1: prove that beyond a reasonable doubt. Fashion we never got it.

1622
01:35:17,720 --> 01:35:19,559
Speaker 1: We never got it. That doesn't that's not the same

1623
01:35:19,600 --> 01:35:21,560
Speaker 1: thing as saying it doesn't exist. But we never got it.

1624
01:35:21,640 --> 01:35:24,560
Speaker 1: And we have to base our analysystem. We have to

1625
01:35:24,600 --> 01:35:26,479
Speaker 1: base the way we treat the system on the facts

1626
01:35:26,560 --> 01:35:30,280
Speaker 1: that we have in evidence. So I heard from people

1627
01:35:30,360 --> 01:35:32,960
Speaker 1: the DOJ. I was asking them about this off the record,

1628
01:35:33,040 --> 01:35:35,000
Speaker 1: talking to people about this the DOJ when it was

1629
01:35:35,439 --> 01:35:38,160
Speaker 1: when the Trump legal team was out there, and then

1630
01:35:38,240 --> 01:35:40,600
Speaker 1: there were the some of the freelancer types with the

1631
01:35:40,720 --> 01:35:43,880
Speaker 1: release the cracking stuff. DOJ was looking at the different

1632
01:35:43,960 --> 01:35:47,519
Speaker 1: voter fraud allegations and there were people that thought they

1633
01:35:47,560 --> 01:35:49,800
Speaker 1: saw something in good faith that was wrong or whatever,

1634
01:35:49,880 --> 01:35:51,200
Speaker 1: and they followed up on a lot of it, and

1635
01:35:51,280 --> 01:35:56,280
Speaker 1: it was people were making they were mistaken. And these

1636
01:35:56,680 --> 01:36:01,160
Speaker 1: are Trump. These are Trump supporting people within the DOJ

1637
01:36:01,760 --> 01:36:03,600
Speaker 1: that I'm talking to. I mean, these are conservatives that

1638
01:36:03,640 --> 01:36:05,040
Speaker 1: I know with the DJ and they say, look, we

1639
01:36:05,120 --> 01:36:08,479
Speaker 1: looked at this and it's not there. You know that

1640
01:36:08,560 --> 01:36:11,840
Speaker 1: doesn't Again, that's what they found, That's what they looked at.

1641
01:36:12,520 --> 01:36:14,240
Speaker 1: I don't know why people love to tell me, but book,

1642
01:36:14,280 --> 01:36:16,920
Speaker 1: you're saying there wasn't fraud. I'm knots I've never said

1643
01:36:17,000 --> 01:36:20,200
Speaker 1: there wasn't. Of course, there was fraud, but there's a

1644
01:36:20,320 --> 01:36:25,080
Speaker 1: difference between knowing that statistically it is a certainty that

1645
01:36:25,120 --> 01:36:27,639
Speaker 1: there was some degree of fraud at a national election

1646
01:36:28,400 --> 01:36:33,600
Speaker 1: and insisting and believing action must be taken at the

1647
01:36:33,720 --> 01:36:37,280
Speaker 1: highest level of government that there was so much fraud

1648
01:36:37,360 --> 01:36:41,160
Speaker 1: that the election had a different outcome without being able

1649
01:36:41,240 --> 01:36:44,760
Speaker 1: to prove it. Those are not the same thing. And

1650
01:36:44,920 --> 01:36:47,920
Speaker 1: that's where we are now. So now I'm not turning

1651
01:36:47,960 --> 01:36:50,080
Speaker 1: my back on Trump. I don't think he should be impeached.

1652
01:36:50,840 --> 01:36:53,719
Speaker 1: I think that he lost, and we're having an honest

1653
01:36:53,720 --> 01:36:56,719
Speaker 1: conversation now about what that means and what happens next

1654
01:36:56,800 --> 01:37:00,920
Speaker 1: and what his future will be in the movement, and

1655
01:37:01,080 --> 01:37:03,519
Speaker 1: we did every look, we did everything we could on

1656
01:37:03,680 --> 01:37:06,680
Speaker 1: this show to help Trump win four more years, as

1657
01:37:06,720 --> 01:37:09,800
Speaker 1: did a lot of other shows. I know wasn't enough.

1658
01:37:10,800 --> 01:37:16,720
Speaker 1: We tried, We tried, Mitch Hey bucking producer Mark. I

1659
01:37:16,840 --> 01:37:19,360
Speaker 1: am a little down, but I have not and will

1660
01:37:19,520 --> 01:37:22,519
Speaker 1: not give up the fight to keep and save our

1661
01:37:22,560 --> 01:37:25,160
Speaker 1: republic from the communists. I want to get your opinion

1662
01:37:25,200 --> 01:37:27,200
Speaker 1: about the next two years. I know we're a similar

1663
01:37:27,240 --> 01:37:29,479
Speaker 1: position in the first years of the first two years

1664
01:37:29,520 --> 01:37:32,599
Speaker 1: of the Obama administration, with the Commies holding the House,

1665
01:37:32,640 --> 01:37:36,719
Speaker 1: Senate and the presidency. The left pretty much squandered that time.

1666
01:37:36,800 --> 01:37:39,080
Speaker 1: I'm afraid they will not do the same this time around.

1667
01:37:39,120 --> 01:37:42,200
Speaker 1: They'll ram through all the laws and policies they want to,

1668
01:37:42,520 --> 01:37:45,200
Speaker 1: including the annihilation of the Second Amendment, and will lose

1669
01:37:45,280 --> 01:37:48,080
Speaker 1: the First Amendment as well. These are crazy times. Please

1670
01:37:48,120 --> 01:37:50,720
Speaker 1: give me your trusted and valued opinion. Well, Mitch, I

1671
01:37:50,880 --> 01:37:53,040
Speaker 1: share a lot of your concern, so we got to

1672
01:37:53,040 --> 01:37:54,880
Speaker 1: start with that. I can't tell you that I don't

1673
01:37:54,920 --> 01:37:58,439
Speaker 1: also have a high degree of concern about what's going

1674
01:37:58,520 --> 01:38:00,320
Speaker 1: on right now and think that things are going to

1675
01:38:00,400 --> 01:38:03,400
Speaker 1: get Things are going to get worse politically and before

1676
01:38:03,439 --> 01:38:06,360
Speaker 1: they get better. That's that's certain, and it's going to

1677
01:38:06,400 --> 01:38:10,000
Speaker 1: happen quickly here. That all said, I also think you

1678
01:38:11,439 --> 01:38:16,360
Speaker 1: need to remember that the Obama administration didn't really squander

1679
01:38:16,439 --> 01:38:20,080
Speaker 1: the first two years from their perspective. They rammed through Obamacare,

1680
01:38:21,240 --> 01:38:27,360
Speaker 1: which was a massive, a massive overhaul of healthcare, and

1681
01:38:27,640 --> 01:38:30,000
Speaker 1: there was a lot, there was a lot involved in that.

1682
01:38:30,240 --> 01:38:36,000
Speaker 1: So I just think everyone needs to be you know, yeah,

1683
01:38:36,040 --> 01:38:37,600
Speaker 1: I think everyone needs to be very clear about this.

1684
01:38:39,920 --> 01:38:42,360
Speaker 1: You know, there was a real, there's a real effort

1685
01:38:42,439 --> 01:38:46,080
Speaker 1: to pass Obamacare and happened. They did it. They uniform

1686
01:38:46,120 --> 01:38:50,600
Speaker 1: the Democrats executed on it, and they're going to do

1687
01:38:50,640 --> 01:38:52,840
Speaker 1: a whole lot more now. They're gonna get a whole

1688
01:38:52,880 --> 01:38:56,680
Speaker 1: lot more done in the next two years. So let's

1689
01:38:56,720 --> 01:38:59,559
Speaker 1: get ready for it. That's my opinion. Man. I wish

1690
01:38:59,600 --> 01:39:02,680
Speaker 1: I could say that I had some magic wand to

1691
01:39:02,800 --> 01:39:06,240
Speaker 1: wave to have a better political situation for us, but

1692
01:39:06,320 --> 01:39:09,519
Speaker 1: I don't. David hey Buck, when I was a kid,

1693
01:39:09,600 --> 01:39:13,840
Speaker 1: the WWE was known as the WWF. Well, I remember

1694
01:39:13,880 --> 01:39:18,719
Speaker 1: that too, David. Same thing for me. I remember Ravishing,

1695
01:39:18,880 --> 01:39:23,720
Speaker 1: Rick Rude and super Fly, Jimmy Snuka and Andre the

1696
01:39:23,880 --> 01:39:27,760
Speaker 1: Giant and Macho Mann Randy Savage and the Undertaker and

1697
01:39:27,880 --> 01:39:32,639
Speaker 1: Hulk Hogan, and I remember all that stuff. I remember

1698
01:39:32,680 --> 01:39:34,519
Speaker 1: watching back in the day, David says, when there was

1699
01:39:34,520 --> 01:39:38,160
Speaker 1: a distinct line between the good guys and the bad guys.

1700
01:39:38,680 --> 01:39:40,240
Speaker 1: It seemed every time the good guy was in the

1701
01:39:40,320 --> 01:39:42,960
Speaker 1: verge of finally defeating the bad guy during a championship match,

1702
01:39:43,479 --> 01:39:47,920
Speaker 1: bad guy manager Captain Lew Albano would enter the ring

1703
01:39:48,120 --> 01:39:50,920
Speaker 1: and toss salt in the referees eyes just before bashing

1704
01:39:51,000 --> 01:39:53,599
Speaker 1: a ladder over the head of the reff. The reff

1705
01:39:53,640 --> 01:39:56,080
Speaker 1: would be knocked out cold. All the while the bad

1706
01:39:56,160 --> 01:39:59,920
Speaker 1: wrestler was regaining his mojo to the point that, along

1707
01:40:00,160 --> 01:40:02,439
Speaker 1: with Captain Lou, they were able to knock the good

1708
01:40:02,520 --> 01:40:06,640
Speaker 1: guy unconscious. As a kid, I'd be throwing things to

1709
01:40:06,720 --> 01:40:09,640
Speaker 1: the TV in an outrage, knowing the good guy was

1710
01:40:09,680 --> 01:40:11,760
Speaker 1: about to get jobbed again and there was nothing I

1711
01:40:11,840 --> 01:40:14,960
Speaker 1: could do about it, And predictably, the ref would regain

1712
01:40:15,040 --> 01:40:17,080
Speaker 1: consciousness and see the bad guy on top of the

1713
01:40:17,160 --> 01:40:19,840
Speaker 1: good guy and would give a quick three count if

1714
01:40:19,880 --> 01:40:23,519
Speaker 1: the bad guy once again one. To me, That's how

1715
01:40:23,600 --> 01:40:26,519
Speaker 1: life in twenty twenty and twenty twenty one feels. For

1716
01:40:26,680 --> 01:40:29,160
Speaker 1: three years, Trump kept doing one good thing after another

1717
01:40:29,200 --> 01:40:31,720
Speaker 1: for America. But in the end, the bad guys, Democrats

1718
01:40:31,760 --> 01:40:34,559
Speaker 1: and their accomplices in the fake news media ended up

1719
01:40:34,640 --> 01:40:39,280
Speaker 1: victorious again. I eventually stopped watching the WWF. I think

1720
01:40:39,320 --> 01:40:41,840
Speaker 1: I'm about to do the same with politics. Seems like

1721
01:40:41,920 --> 01:40:44,000
Speaker 1: a waste of time for a middle aged, white Catholic

1722
01:40:44,040 --> 01:40:48,040
Speaker 1: American male like me to have a president that loves America.

1723
01:40:48,240 --> 01:40:50,360
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, it seems like a waste of time for

1724
01:40:50,360 --> 01:40:52,600
Speaker 1: a middle aged, white Catholic American male like me to

1725
01:40:52,800 --> 01:40:56,080
Speaker 1: be allowed to have a president that loves America as

1726
01:40:56,160 --> 01:40:59,240
Speaker 1: much as I do. It feels like the fix is in. Well,

1727
01:40:59,360 --> 01:41:03,840
Speaker 1: David guy, totally understand your frustrations. I share your frustrations,

1728
01:41:04,200 --> 01:41:06,840
Speaker 1: and I think there was a lot of good stuff

1729
01:41:06,840 --> 01:41:10,439
Speaker 1: that Trump did. I think that one of my big points,

1730
01:41:10,479 --> 01:41:12,960
Speaker 1: and I know that that some folks aren't gonna want

1731
01:41:12,960 --> 01:41:15,160
Speaker 1: to I've said this and they every time I say

1732
01:41:15,200 --> 01:41:18,120
Speaker 1: it there maybe cringe a little bit. But there was

1733
01:41:18,320 --> 01:41:25,719
Speaker 1: no space for making Trump's presidency better from his team

1734
01:41:26,120 --> 01:41:30,880
Speaker 1: and on on his side. You know, It's what I've

1735
01:41:30,880 --> 01:41:32,920
Speaker 1: been saying about the coach at halftime with the team

1736
01:41:32,960 --> 01:41:36,080
Speaker 1: in the locker room. If you were on Team Trump.

1737
01:41:36,160 --> 01:41:38,200
Speaker 1: You were only allowed to talk about how we were

1738
01:41:38,240 --> 01:41:40,759
Speaker 1: going to always win and we're awesome and everything is perfect.

1739
01:41:41,800 --> 01:41:46,639
Speaker 1: That's not That's not how you get a sustainable, long

1740
01:41:46,800 --> 01:41:52,640
Speaker 1: term movement that achieves really important goals to conservatism. And

1741
01:41:53,200 --> 01:41:57,639
Speaker 1: I think we should remember that going forward, right. I remember,

1742
01:41:57,800 --> 01:41:59,320
Speaker 1: I remember someone wrote in saying that I was a

1743
01:41:59,400 --> 01:42:01,960
Speaker 1: waffler on Trump once, that I was waffling on trumpets.

1744
01:42:02,000 --> 01:42:05,080
Speaker 1: That never I never wavered to my support for the agenda,

1745
01:42:05,840 --> 01:42:12,479
Speaker 1: but on particularly personnel choices, there were there were mistakes made,

1746
01:42:13,160 --> 01:42:18,799
Speaker 1: and those personnel mistakes had further ramifications and policy focused mistakes.

1747
01:42:18,840 --> 01:42:21,240
Speaker 1: It's not just oh, I don't like you know, I

1748
01:42:21,360 --> 01:42:23,360
Speaker 1: don't like I don't know the mooch, I don't care, right,

1749
01:42:23,439 --> 01:42:27,479
Speaker 1: I don't know, I'm Arosa, I don't care. The point

1750
01:42:27,600 --> 01:42:29,320
Speaker 1: is that, and now those are two that come to mind.

1751
01:42:29,320 --> 01:42:30,519
Speaker 1: There are a lot of people in that White House

1752
01:42:30,560 --> 01:42:32,400
Speaker 1: that never should have said foot. Never should have set

1753
01:42:32,439 --> 01:42:35,680
Speaker 1: foot in a serious administration. It wasn't a good thing.

1754
01:42:37,880 --> 01:42:41,519
Speaker 1: But when I said that, I knew that most of

1755
01:42:41,520 --> 01:42:45,320
Speaker 1: the people listening, we were getting mad at me. Don't

1756
01:42:45,360 --> 01:42:47,040
Speaker 1: stand in the way of Trump. He knows what he's doing.

1757
01:42:47,120 --> 01:42:49,760
Speaker 1: He knows what he's doing. No, Trump actually needed people

1758
01:42:49,800 --> 01:42:51,960
Speaker 1: that know more about politics than he do to help

1759
01:42:52,040 --> 01:42:56,760
Speaker 1: shape some aspects of the policy agenda. That he didn't

1760
01:42:56,800 --> 01:42:59,040
Speaker 1: need anyone's help to win the campaign in twenty sixteen,

1761
01:42:59,080 --> 01:43:01,120
Speaker 1: that's for sure, right, So that's what I always said.

1762
01:43:01,120 --> 01:43:05,280
Speaker 1: This guy has had a political genius for campaigning, clearly,

1763
01:43:06,000 --> 01:43:08,640
Speaker 1: but getting the job and doing the job we're not

1764
01:43:08,720 --> 01:43:12,960
Speaker 1: the same thing. And I think that that conservatives in

1765
01:43:13,080 --> 01:43:17,519
Speaker 1: general were not comfortable hearing from people who were trying

1766
01:43:17,640 --> 01:43:22,240
Speaker 1: to push Trump in a more productive policy direction to

1767
01:43:22,400 --> 01:43:26,080
Speaker 1: help him achieve victory in the trade war with China,

1768
01:43:26,120 --> 01:43:28,519
Speaker 1: to help him achieve the building of a wall from

1769
01:43:28,560 --> 01:43:32,320
Speaker 1: C to C, not fourteen miles that's the number. Fourteen

1770
01:43:32,400 --> 01:43:34,519
Speaker 1: miles of new wall and a few hundred miles of

1771
01:43:34,640 --> 01:43:38,320
Speaker 1: upgraded wall. We need a lot more new wall than

1772
01:43:38,360 --> 01:43:42,760
Speaker 1: we got, and these were areas where it should have

1773
01:43:42,840 --> 01:43:46,240
Speaker 1: been stronger, but nobody wanted to hear it. Now, when

1774
01:43:46,240 --> 01:43:48,840
Speaker 1: you're in the media business, remember you you have to

1775
01:43:48,840 --> 01:43:50,880
Speaker 1: speak the truth. But you also there's no point in

1776
01:43:50,960 --> 01:43:55,640
Speaker 1: antagonizing your listeners because one, you love and respect them

1777
01:43:55,760 --> 01:43:57,920
Speaker 1: right there, your extended family in a sense. But also

1778
01:43:58,360 --> 01:44:01,200
Speaker 1: they'll just tune it out. They'll tune it out. You

1779
01:44:01,240 --> 01:44:02,839
Speaker 1: know you can only you have to pick your spots.

1780
01:44:03,439 --> 01:44:05,240
Speaker 1: I can tell this audience things that I know that

1781
01:44:05,439 --> 01:44:08,280
Speaker 1: that when I say they obviously there's a tremendous We've

1782
01:44:08,280 --> 01:44:10,120
Speaker 1: got hundreds of thousands of listeners. I mean, this is

1783
01:44:10,200 --> 01:44:13,360
Speaker 1: a there's a diverse, very diverse, truly diverse group of

1784
01:44:13,400 --> 01:44:17,280
Speaker 1: people listening to this show. But I know when I'm

1785
01:44:17,320 --> 01:44:18,960
Speaker 1: saying things, they're going to push some of the wrong

1786
01:44:19,320 --> 01:44:22,160
Speaker 1: some people's buttons the wrong way. But I do it

1787
01:44:22,280 --> 01:44:23,840
Speaker 1: for a purpose. I do it because I want to

1788
01:44:23,880 --> 01:44:25,280
Speaker 1: be honest and I think that I have to get

1789
01:44:25,320 --> 01:44:26,760
Speaker 1: it off my chest and I have to tell people

1790
01:44:26,800 --> 01:44:31,519
Speaker 1: what I really think. And that mechanism was too small

1791
01:44:31,960 --> 01:44:36,679
Speaker 1: within the Trump presidency. Wasn't enough space for that from

1792
01:44:36,880 --> 01:44:42,720
Speaker 1: his team people trying to help. You're in the hut.

1793
01:44:43,160 --> 01:44:49,680
Speaker 1: This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast more roll call

1794
01:44:49,840 --> 01:44:52,640
Speaker 1: here with Wesley Buck. It's so disheartened to know that

1795
01:44:52,720 --> 01:44:56,200
Speaker 1: you're facing backlash, angry backlash from your own team for

1796
01:44:56,280 --> 01:44:58,160
Speaker 1: the sin of being principled enough that could down the

1797
01:44:58,240 --> 01:45:01,559
Speaker 1: DC riots. It's the same niche of die hard Trump

1798
01:45:01,640 --> 01:45:04,640
Speaker 1: supporters who came for Tucker Carlson and Megan Kelly for

1799
01:45:04,680 --> 01:45:08,120
Speaker 1: the high crime of expecting actual proof of rampant voter

1800
01:45:08,240 --> 01:45:12,080
Speaker 1: fraud from Trump's lawyers. I support Trump, but I support

1801
01:45:12,160 --> 01:45:15,760
Speaker 1: this country and the conservative movement. More people need to

1802
01:45:15,800 --> 01:45:18,920
Speaker 1: remind themselves of what's at stake and maybe reevaluate what

1803
01:45:19,160 --> 01:45:22,360
Speaker 1: hills they want to die on. Like you, I believe

1804
01:45:22,479 --> 01:45:26,320
Speaker 1: in law and order, peaceful protests, and conservative populism. We

1805
01:45:26,479 --> 01:45:29,920
Speaker 1: must condemn all forms of lawlessness. You made the right

1806
01:45:30,040 --> 01:45:33,960
Speaker 1: call shields high. Oh Wesley, I appreciate that. I really do.

1807
01:45:34,560 --> 01:45:36,640
Speaker 1: You know, I haven't been reading, we haven't really been

1808
01:45:36,720 --> 01:45:41,679
Speaker 1: going for the you know, angry. Why are you betraying

1809
01:45:41,760 --> 01:45:44,000
Speaker 1: Trump stuff as much? On roll Call? There's there is

1810
01:45:44,040 --> 01:45:48,160
Speaker 1: some of that for sure, just because you know it's

1811
01:45:48,240 --> 01:45:50,240
Speaker 1: not productive, it's not helpful. And the people who are

1812
01:45:50,320 --> 01:45:52,880
Speaker 1: writing that to me for condemning the DC protests, I'm

1813
01:45:52,920 --> 01:45:54,639
Speaker 1: telling you they're out there and some of them listen

1814
01:45:54,680 --> 01:45:58,240
Speaker 1: to this show. But I just think they're wrong. I

1815
01:45:59,040 --> 01:46:03,360
Speaker 1: actually don't think. I don't think it's a um. I

1816
01:46:03,439 --> 01:46:08,360
Speaker 1: don't think it's a worthwhile opinion to have to attack

1817
01:46:08,479 --> 01:46:13,720
Speaker 1: people for standing on what is clear principle here right

1818
01:46:13,800 --> 01:46:16,479
Speaker 1: to say that you're a bad person because you condemn

1819
01:46:16,720 --> 01:46:19,120
Speaker 1: the DC right. I don't think that that's a that's

1820
01:46:19,200 --> 01:46:22,360
Speaker 1: not an opinion that I'm I feel the need to

1821
01:46:22,439 --> 01:46:25,799
Speaker 1: have shared on the air here, you know, from other people. Obviously,

1822
01:46:25,880 --> 01:46:30,280
Speaker 1: I don't feel that. I don't feel that is helpful. Buck.

1823
01:46:30,560 --> 01:46:33,880
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Kyle, I'm Buck. I'm not in a conspiracy theories,

1824
01:46:33,920 --> 01:46:36,240
Speaker 1: but I think the goal of Democrats the upcoming impeachment

1825
01:46:36,360 --> 01:46:40,200
Speaker 1: might be to provoke more riots and throwing more rocks

1826
01:46:40,240 --> 01:46:42,479
Speaker 1: at the hornets nest causes more outbursts from the right.

1827
01:46:42,800 --> 01:46:44,960
Speaker 1: It would enable the left to crack down even harder

1828
01:46:45,000 --> 01:46:47,200
Speaker 1: than they already are. It's win win for them. I

1829
01:46:47,320 --> 01:46:50,320
Speaker 1: know that's Machiavellian, but I'm pretty sure Pelosi's made name

1830
01:46:50,439 --> 01:46:54,160
Speaker 1: was Machiavelli. It isn't it frustrating that people like us

1831
01:46:54,240 --> 01:46:56,880
Speaker 1: feel shame for the violence under the Capitol building while

1832
01:46:56,920 --> 01:46:59,479
Speaker 1: the left took righteous pride in the violence that took

1833
01:46:59,520 --> 01:47:02,760
Speaker 1: place over the summer. We are victims of our principles, Kyle.

1834
01:47:02,800 --> 01:47:05,160
Speaker 1: I've said this before. The great advantage of Democrats have

1835
01:47:05,360 --> 01:47:07,439
Speaker 1: is they have no principles to protect, which gives them

1836
01:47:07,600 --> 01:47:11,719
Speaker 1: a lot of options, endless options. They have no principles

1837
01:47:11,760 --> 01:47:15,400
Speaker 1: to protect right. It's political violence. Bad the left says,

1838
01:47:15,439 --> 01:47:18,960
Speaker 1: depends on who does it. But we can't be them

1839
01:47:19,800 --> 01:47:22,920
Speaker 1: a right otherwise, what's the point why people are saying, Oh,

1840
01:47:23,000 --> 01:47:24,960
Speaker 1: but buck, it gets in the way. Of course, it

1841
01:47:25,040 --> 01:47:27,120
Speaker 1: gets in the way. Being a good and honorable and

1842
01:47:27,200 --> 01:47:31,360
Speaker 1: honest person always comes at a cost. It's cost we

1843
01:47:31,439 --> 01:47:35,840
Speaker 1: have willing to pay ourselves. It's central to who we are.

1844
01:47:36,040 --> 01:47:38,200
Speaker 1: Thank you so much for listening. Please do pass the buck.

1845
01:47:38,280 --> 01:47:40,880
Speaker 1: Tell people about what we're doing here, send them a
