WEBVTT - The Fragile Left Slips Into Insanity

0:00:10.920 --> 0:00:15.960
<v Speaker 1>You are entering the freedom hunt. Trump arrangement syndrome is

0:00:16.000 --> 0:00:18.720
<v Speaker 1>all too real. The Democrats have lost their minds, not

0:00:18.800 --> 0:00:21.720
<v Speaker 1>just about the current president and Russia collusion and the

0:00:21.840 --> 0:00:24.840
<v Speaker 1>fight between Congress and the executive branch, but also on

0:00:24.960 --> 0:00:27.600
<v Speaker 1>climate change and a whole host of other issues. We're

0:00:27.600 --> 0:00:29.800
<v Speaker 1>going to try to help them with a little therapy

0:00:30.040 --> 0:00:32.600
<v Speaker 1>through truth today on The buck Sexton Show. That and

0:00:32.720 --> 0:00:36.600
<v Speaker 1>much more coming up. This is the buck Sexton Show,

0:00:36.920 --> 0:00:39.680
<v Speaker 1>where the mission or mission is to decode what really

0:00:39.720 --> 0:00:46.479
<v Speaker 1>matters with actionable intelligence. Mag No mistake, American, You're a

0:00:46.520 --> 0:00:58.000
<v Speaker 1>great American Again, the buck Sexton Show begins. No, Welcome

0:00:58.000 --> 0:01:01.080
<v Speaker 1>to the buck Sexton Show. Everybody, great to have you here.

0:01:01.160 --> 0:01:04.399
<v Speaker 1>I wanted to start with something maybe a little a

0:01:04.440 --> 0:01:07.600
<v Speaker 1>little different today. I want to start with a premise

0:01:09.000 --> 0:01:13.240
<v Speaker 1>we often discuss here on the show, the ways in

0:01:13.280 --> 0:01:19.080
<v Speaker 1>which I think the liberals, the progressives, the left in

0:01:19.080 --> 0:01:23.679
<v Speaker 1>this country are detached from reality, that they have lost

0:01:23.680 --> 0:01:27.400
<v Speaker 1>it in some way, that there is a mass hysteria

0:01:27.600 --> 0:01:32.759
<v Speaker 1>well extraordinary popular delusions. In the Madness of Crowds by

0:01:32.840 --> 0:01:38.840
<v Speaker 1>Charles Mackie, which was published back in eighteen forty one,

0:01:40.520 --> 0:01:42.000
<v Speaker 1>has a quote that I wanted to start off the

0:01:42.000 --> 0:01:43.880
<v Speaker 1>show with today because I think as you hear it,

0:01:45.240 --> 0:01:49.639
<v Speaker 1>you'll think, huh, so, it is possible for a large

0:01:49.800 --> 0:01:54.440
<v Speaker 1>portion of a country's population to effectively lose it on

0:01:54.480 --> 0:02:00.200
<v Speaker 1>an issue. Here's what he wrote. This is the nineteenth

0:02:00.240 --> 0:02:05.120
<v Speaker 1>century Scotsman. In the reading of the history of nations,

0:02:05.160 --> 0:02:08.320
<v Speaker 1>we find that, like individuals, they have their whims and

0:02:08.440 --> 0:02:13.280
<v Speaker 1>their peculiarities, their seasons of excitement and recklessness when they

0:02:13.360 --> 0:02:17.720
<v Speaker 1>care not what they do. We find that whole communities

0:02:17.760 --> 0:02:22.079
<v Speaker 1>suddenly fix their minds upon one object and go mad

0:02:22.120 --> 0:02:26.920
<v Speaker 1>in its pursuit. That millions of people become simultaneously impressed

0:02:26.960 --> 0:02:30.240
<v Speaker 1>with one delusion and run after it till their attention

0:02:30.360 --> 0:02:33.919
<v Speaker 1>is caught by some new folly more captivating than the first.

0:02:34.560 --> 0:02:38.520
<v Speaker 1>Sober nations have all at once become desperate gamblers, and

0:02:38.639 --> 0:02:41.160
<v Speaker 1>risked almost their existence upon the turn of a piece

0:02:41.200 --> 0:02:46.000
<v Speaker 1>of paper men. It has been well said, think in herds.

0:02:46.919 --> 0:02:49.359
<v Speaker 1>It will be seen that they go mad in herds

0:02:50.080 --> 0:02:58.160
<v Speaker 1>while they only recover their senses slowly and one by one. Yep,

0:02:59.200 --> 0:03:01.400
<v Speaker 1>doesn't that sound like the modern Democratic Party to you?

0:03:01.560 --> 0:03:04.440
<v Speaker 1>They've gone mad in a herd, and we can only

0:03:04.440 --> 0:03:07.640
<v Speaker 1>bring them back one by one. But they are in

0:03:07.680 --> 0:03:14.080
<v Speaker 1>the grips of a total delusion, a delusion that Donald

0:03:14.080 --> 0:03:18.440
<v Speaker 1>Trump worked with the Russians, even though the evidence now

0:03:18.440 --> 0:03:20.920
<v Speaker 1>shows them. They have been presented with over four hundred

0:03:20.960 --> 0:03:27.600
<v Speaker 1>pages of evidence and two plus years of feverish speculation

0:03:27.880 --> 0:03:35.320
<v Speaker 1>and unbounded analytic craziness from all the major newspapers and networks,

0:03:35.360 --> 0:03:39.960
<v Speaker 1>and with a few left out of that about how

0:03:40.000 --> 0:03:42.560
<v Speaker 1>this was just going to be a day of destruction

0:03:42.640 --> 0:03:44.840
<v Speaker 1>for Trump when the truth was fondly found. Now the

0:03:44.840 --> 0:03:47.680
<v Speaker 1>truth is out, and guess what, they refuse to accept

0:03:47.760 --> 0:03:52.080
<v Speaker 1>it as the truth. But I do start to think

0:03:52.080 --> 0:03:57.000
<v Speaker 1>that liberalism has morphed because of all the different echo

0:03:57.080 --> 0:04:00.280
<v Speaker 1>chambers that it can rely on, because of the minence

0:04:00.360 --> 0:04:03.960
<v Speaker 1>that it has in much of American culture, and certainly

0:04:04.000 --> 0:04:12.760
<v Speaker 1>the American media landscape is ninety percent liberal. Colleges are liberal. Increasingly,

0:04:12.760 --> 0:04:16.120
<v Speaker 1>the federal government is full of liberals. And with all

0:04:16.120 --> 0:04:19.760
<v Speaker 1>of this happening, it seems clear to me that there

0:04:19.880 --> 0:04:24.279
<v Speaker 1>is a real condition here, a kind of psychological medical

0:04:24.320 --> 0:04:28.520
<v Speaker 1>condition known as liberalism that for a lot of people,

0:04:28.560 --> 0:04:34.000
<v Speaker 1>it goes from being an organizing an organizing philosophy for

0:04:34.200 --> 0:04:41.640
<v Speaker 1>different ideas and policy theories to something a bit more clinical.

0:04:42.600 --> 0:04:47.200
<v Speaker 1>And if you think that that's an exaggeration, I just

0:04:47.240 --> 0:04:51.799
<v Speaker 1>bring you that there is now for climate change, which

0:04:51.839 --> 0:04:57.800
<v Speaker 1>is another area of abject hysteria for liberals. I mean

0:04:57.839 --> 0:05:01.280
<v Speaker 1>they think that it's okay they advocate for terrifying ten

0:05:01.360 --> 0:05:03.840
<v Speaker 1>year olds into thinking the world will end in ten years,

0:05:04.040 --> 0:05:07.239
<v Speaker 1>and they don't see a problem with this. And in fact,

0:05:07.440 --> 0:05:10.760
<v Speaker 1>once they have successfully brainwashed those ten year olds, they

0:05:10.760 --> 0:05:14.279
<v Speaker 1>will deploy them. They will deploy them to harangue you

0:05:14.520 --> 0:05:18.599
<v Speaker 1>and me, to browbeat us into submission. And if you

0:05:18.760 --> 0:05:21.360
<v Speaker 1>have any problem with this, if you say I don't

0:05:21.360 --> 0:05:23.040
<v Speaker 1>think the world's really going to end in ten years,

0:05:23.440 --> 0:05:27.600
<v Speaker 1>this is crazy. They say, Oh, you're one of those Trumpsters,

0:05:27.640 --> 0:05:30.520
<v Speaker 1>aren't you just always running around with your maga hat

0:05:30.600 --> 0:05:34.279
<v Speaker 1>on supporting Trump. No, I'm just not somebody that has

0:05:34.440 --> 0:05:37.880
<v Speaker 1>lost it. And that's the way you have to speak

0:05:37.880 --> 0:05:41.560
<v Speaker 1>about this. Now, let me share with you a piece

0:05:41.600 --> 0:05:46.320
<v Speaker 1>published today in CNN of all places, and it's about

0:05:46.760 --> 0:05:51.240
<v Speaker 1>climate change anxiety. How this is now becoming a crippling

0:05:51.520 --> 0:05:56.840
<v Speaker 1>fear for otherwise functioning adults. They have been so propagandized,

0:05:57.880 --> 0:06:02.520
<v Speaker 1>they have been so brainwashed by the left wing Democrat

0:06:02.640 --> 0:06:07.320
<v Speaker 1>media industrial complex that they are terrified. They are literally

0:06:07.760 --> 0:06:12.040
<v Speaker 1>losing sleep and crying because the world is going to

0:06:12.200 --> 0:06:17.240
<v Speaker 1>end because of climate change. Kind of like the elderly

0:06:17.279 --> 0:06:19.840
<v Speaker 1>people that couldn't sleep at night because they're worried they

0:06:19.880 --> 0:06:23.359
<v Speaker 1>would have their last day on Earth before the Mueller

0:06:23.480 --> 0:06:28.640
<v Speaker 1>report came out. These are not normal thoughts. This is

0:06:29.640 --> 0:06:32.640
<v Speaker 1>these are not the mental processes of people that are

0:06:32.640 --> 0:06:37.400
<v Speaker 1>well adjusted. Something has gone wrong here. The synapses are misfiring.

0:06:37.680 --> 0:06:42.120
<v Speaker 1>Here's this piece about climate change anxiety. You could also

0:06:42.160 --> 0:06:46.800
<v Speaker 1>call it hysteria from CNN quote a student in Wendy

0:06:46.839 --> 0:06:50.880
<v Speaker 1>Peterson Boring's climate change class said she woke up at

0:06:50.880 --> 0:06:55.000
<v Speaker 1>two am and then cried for two solid hours about

0:06:55.080 --> 0:07:01.520
<v Speaker 1>the warming ocean. This is a computer science major, Boring said. Boring,

0:07:01.600 --> 0:07:04.919
<v Speaker 1>an associate professor of History, Religious Studies, Women in Gender

0:07:05.040 --> 0:07:09.720
<v Speaker 1>Studies of Course at Willamette University in Oregon, has been

0:07:09.720 --> 0:07:12.880
<v Speaker 1>teaching about climate change for a little over a decade.

0:07:13.600 --> 0:07:18.200
<v Speaker 1>In that short time, she has watched her students fear, grief, stress,

0:07:18.280 --> 0:07:22.560
<v Speaker 1>and anxiety grow. Back in two thousand and seven, it

0:07:22.640 --> 0:07:25.000
<v Speaker 1>was the mouse in the room, then it became the

0:07:25.040 --> 0:07:27.520
<v Speaker 1>elephant in the room. By twenty sixteen, those concerns and

0:07:27.640 --> 0:07:34.760
<v Speaker 1>fears began to flood over. I'm just telling you what's

0:07:34.760 --> 0:07:37.440
<v Speaker 1>being reported by liberals about their state of mind. They've

0:07:37.440 --> 0:07:40.520
<v Speaker 1>got a problem. They've got a problem when it comes

0:07:40.520 --> 0:07:42.240
<v Speaker 1>to Trump. They've got a problem when it comes to

0:07:42.280 --> 0:07:45.480
<v Speaker 1>climate change. They are in the grips of what Mackie

0:07:45.560 --> 0:07:51.280
<v Speaker 1>described in the nineteenth century as a mass delusion. And

0:07:51.400 --> 0:07:54.000
<v Speaker 1>people don't like to admit this. They don't want to

0:07:54.480 --> 0:07:57.000
<v Speaker 1>unravel this in their own brains, because no one wants

0:07:57.000 --> 0:07:59.760
<v Speaker 1>to think that they could fall for some silly conspiracy

0:07:59.800 --> 0:08:02.720
<v Speaker 1>theory and have it overtake their their thoughts and their

0:08:02.800 --> 0:08:05.920
<v Speaker 1>sense of well being and change their relationships with people.

0:08:06.520 --> 0:08:09.320
<v Speaker 1>I see this happening all the time. I hear people

0:08:09.360 --> 0:08:11.280
<v Speaker 1>say that, you know, oh, I came across another person

0:08:11.280 --> 0:08:13.040
<v Speaker 1>who says, you know, he or she won't date a

0:08:13.080 --> 0:08:17.200
<v Speaker 1>Trump supporter. What kind of nonsense is that? What kind

0:08:17.200 --> 0:08:21.840
<v Speaker 1>of narrow minded political bigotry has the left embraced while

0:08:21.880 --> 0:08:29.920
<v Speaker 1>it's now pervasive. It's so pervasive that the American Psychological Association, Sure,

0:08:29.920 --> 0:08:32.520
<v Speaker 1>that's an interesting bunch to go on a junket with

0:08:32.640 --> 0:08:36.560
<v Speaker 1>the Vegas. They created a sixty nine page climate change

0:08:36.640 --> 0:08:43.720
<v Speaker 1>guide to help mental health providers. That's right. Now psychologists

0:08:44.120 --> 0:08:48.280
<v Speaker 1>are having to create documents to deal with the apparently

0:08:48.440 --> 0:08:55.120
<v Speaker 1>very real psychological condition of climate change hysteria. When are

0:08:55.160 --> 0:08:58.240
<v Speaker 1>liberals going to tone it down and back off a

0:08:58.320 --> 0:09:03.439
<v Speaker 1>little bit? How much is too much? I think it's

0:09:03.440 --> 0:09:06.160
<v Speaker 1>only going to get worse. I wish I could tell

0:09:06.200 --> 0:09:09.000
<v Speaker 1>you that I had a belief that they would finally

0:09:10.040 --> 0:09:14.120
<v Speaker 1>recognize how counterproductive this is, how insane all of this is.

0:09:15.440 --> 0:09:19.080
<v Speaker 1>But no, that is that is not the case. You

0:09:19.200 --> 0:09:26.760
<v Speaker 1>have this, uh, this species die off news cycle from

0:09:26.760 --> 0:09:28.920
<v Speaker 1>earlier in the week about how you know, all a

0:09:29.000 --> 0:09:32.359
<v Speaker 1>million species are at risk of dying a million species

0:09:32.400 --> 0:09:39.319
<v Speaker 1>because because of us, because of human beings. And now

0:09:39.320 --> 0:09:43.120
<v Speaker 1>we're supposed to dramatically change This isn't just stuff that

0:09:43.480 --> 0:09:46.199
<v Speaker 1>is theoretical. We're going to change our lifestyle, change our economies,

0:09:46.320 --> 0:09:48.960
<v Speaker 1>change our political systems to deal with the threat of

0:09:49.000 --> 0:09:53.040
<v Speaker 1>species die off because of climate change. You know, it's

0:09:53.040 --> 0:09:55.599
<v Speaker 1>either Trump is going to ruin the world cause a

0:09:55.679 --> 0:09:58.319
<v Speaker 1>nuclear war destroy America, or climate change is going to

0:09:58.440 --> 0:10:01.839
<v Speaker 1>end the world. Can we just figure out like a

0:10:02.960 --> 0:10:07.240
<v Speaker 1>better way to do drug pricing and you know, maybe

0:10:07.280 --> 0:10:10.520
<v Speaker 1>make some more efficient choices in the school system. I mean,

0:10:10.600 --> 0:10:13.120
<v Speaker 1>can we have normal political conversation at some point or

0:10:13.160 --> 0:10:15.160
<v Speaker 1>is it always, oh my gosh, we're all gonna die

0:10:15.360 --> 0:10:21.040
<v Speaker 1>because Republicans or usually it's because Trump. I'm not the

0:10:21.080 --> 0:10:25.200
<v Speaker 1>one putting out as a as a medical association guidance

0:10:25.200 --> 0:10:26.760
<v Speaker 1>for how to deal with people that aren't getting their

0:10:26.760 --> 0:10:29.320
<v Speaker 1>way politically. This is the Libs are doing this now.

0:10:30.200 --> 0:10:34.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm just here to provide you with some refuge of sanity,

0:10:34.440 --> 0:10:36.080
<v Speaker 1>and I hope you at least can look forward to that.

0:10:36.120 --> 0:10:37.800
<v Speaker 1>You can come here. This is where this is where

0:10:37.800 --> 0:10:40.360
<v Speaker 1>we approach things as they are. This is where where

0:10:40.480 --> 0:10:48.679
<v Speaker 1>we approach reality and understand it as such. You had

0:10:48.720 --> 0:10:53.000
<v Speaker 1>back in nineteen eighty and this was fascinating. This is

0:10:53.000 --> 0:10:57.320
<v Speaker 1>from a guy who's an environmentalist skeptic out of Denmark

0:10:57.360 --> 0:11:00.120
<v Speaker 1>pull this together and he had all this great stuff

0:11:00.160 --> 0:11:04.080
<v Speaker 1>today online. And this is from the Carter administration, Jimmy

0:11:04.080 --> 0:11:10.319
<v Speaker 1>Carter's administration, where we were told that here let me

0:11:10.400 --> 0:11:14.320
<v Speaker 1>read you. This is from the government report, the US

0:11:14.440 --> 0:11:18.520
<v Speaker 1>government projections called the Global two thousand Study. This is

0:11:18.520 --> 0:11:22.400
<v Speaker 1>from nineteen eighty and I'm just going to read you

0:11:22.480 --> 0:11:24.680
<v Speaker 1>some of what this is. The United States government under

0:11:24.720 --> 0:11:27.000
<v Speaker 1>Jimmy Carter, the President United States. This was put forward

0:11:27.000 --> 0:11:29.280
<v Speaker 1>the media launched onto this in nineteen eighty, almost the

0:11:29.320 --> 0:11:31.840
<v Speaker 1>year that I was born. Here's what it says. If

0:11:31.880 --> 0:11:34.960
<v Speaker 1>present trends continue, the world in two thousand will be

0:11:35.120 --> 0:11:39.960
<v Speaker 1>more crowded, more polluted, less stable ecologically, and more vulnerable

0:11:40.000 --> 0:11:43.480
<v Speaker 1>to disruption than the world we live in now. Serious

0:11:43.480 --> 0:11:47.800
<v Speaker 1>stresses involving population, resources, and environment are clearly visible. Despite

0:11:47.800 --> 0:11:50.920
<v Speaker 1>greater material output, the world's people will be poorer than

0:11:50.960 --> 0:12:00.559
<v Speaker 1>they are today. False, dramatically, demonstrably, clearly false. Let me

0:12:00.600 --> 0:12:02.680
<v Speaker 1>go back to this global two thousand report from the

0:12:02.720 --> 0:12:05.400
<v Speaker 1>US government. All the smart scientists working for Jimmy Carter,

0:12:05.480 --> 0:12:09.240
<v Speaker 1>this is what they thought. Quote For hundreds of millions

0:12:09.240 --> 0:12:12.040
<v Speaker 1>of the desperately poor, the outlook for food and other

0:12:12.120 --> 0:12:15.120
<v Speaker 1>necessities of life will be no better. For many, it

0:12:15.200 --> 0:12:19.160
<v Speaker 1>will be worse. Life for most people on Earth will

0:12:19.160 --> 0:12:21.920
<v Speaker 1>be more precarious in the year two thousand than it

0:12:22.000 --> 0:12:24.880
<v Speaker 1>is now. In less the nations of the world act

0:12:24.920 --> 0:12:30.720
<v Speaker 1>decisively to alter current trends, extinctions of plant and animal

0:12:30.760 --> 0:12:34.920
<v Speaker 1>species will increase dramatically, hundreds of thousands of species, perhaps

0:12:34.960 --> 0:12:37.480
<v Speaker 1>as many as twenty percent of all species on Earth

0:12:37.760 --> 0:12:41.080
<v Speaker 1>will be irretrievably lost as their habitats vanished, especially in

0:12:41.120 --> 0:12:47.240
<v Speaker 1>tropical forests. All of this was wrong. All of this

0:12:48.400 --> 0:12:51.640
<v Speaker 1>was wrong. This is the smartest minds in the United

0:12:51.640 --> 0:12:55.679
<v Speaker 1>States government of the Carter administration forty years ago. Does

0:12:55.720 --> 0:13:00.079
<v Speaker 1>anybody care that they were all wrong? Time Magazine in

0:13:00.240 --> 0:13:04.120
<v Speaker 1>nineteen eighty there will be environmental nightmares as man invades

0:13:04.160 --> 0:13:07.000
<v Speaker 1>their wild habitats and pollutants rained down on them. Five

0:13:07.120 --> 0:13:10.120
<v Speaker 1>hundred thousand to two million species of plants and animals

0:13:10.160 --> 0:13:12.079
<v Speaker 1>may die off in the next two decades. That was

0:13:12.200 --> 0:13:16.800
<v Speaker 1>nineteen eighty. We're now four decades after that, So they're

0:13:16.840 --> 0:13:21.480
<v Speaker 1>saying two million species die off? Does anyone anyone? Just

0:13:21.679 --> 0:13:23.400
<v Speaker 1>I know I can't hear you right now, but do

0:13:23.400 --> 0:13:27.960
<v Speaker 1>you want to guess how many species have actually disappeared

0:13:28.440 --> 0:13:32.360
<v Speaker 1>in the last forty years? And that includes plants, insects, everything.

0:13:35.280 --> 0:13:39.360
<v Speaker 1>Eight hundred and seventy two eight hundreds? Is that two million?

0:13:39.840 --> 0:13:42.160
<v Speaker 1>Keep in mind we're discovering new species all the time, too,

0:13:42.400 --> 0:13:44.720
<v Speaker 1>That is that two million, eight hundred and seventies. If

0:13:44.760 --> 0:13:46.440
<v Speaker 1>you told me Buck, I'm gonna give you two million

0:13:46.480 --> 0:13:49.240
<v Speaker 1>dollars and then you actually gave me eight hundred and

0:13:49.240 --> 0:13:55.160
<v Speaker 1>seventy two dollars. I would be very disappointed, very very disappointed.

0:13:55.400 --> 0:13:58.120
<v Speaker 1>Keep that in mind, all right, I've got more for

0:13:58.160 --> 0:14:00.840
<v Speaker 1>you on this, on the liberal delusion and the madness

0:14:00.920 --> 0:14:09.079
<v Speaker 1>of the left when we come back. I don't think

0:14:09.160 --> 0:14:12.040
<v Speaker 1>last week's hearing was actually about having staff questioned the

0:14:12.080 --> 0:14:14.679
<v Speaker 1>Attorney General. I think it's as my colleague said earlier,

0:14:14.720 --> 0:14:16.560
<v Speaker 1>I think it's all about trying to destroy Bill Barr

0:14:16.600 --> 0:14:19.000
<v Speaker 1>because Democrats are nervous. He's going to get to the

0:14:19.040 --> 0:14:21.840
<v Speaker 1>bottom of everything. He's gonna find out how and why

0:14:21.840 --> 0:14:24.960
<v Speaker 1>this investigation started in the first place. The Attorney General

0:14:24.960 --> 0:14:26.280
<v Speaker 1>said three and a half weeks ago in front the

0:14:26.280 --> 0:14:30.840
<v Speaker 1>Senate Finance Committee, spying did occur, said it twice, Yes,

0:14:31.000 --> 0:14:34.680
<v Speaker 1>spying did occur. Third, he said, there's a basis for

0:14:34.840 --> 0:14:38.480
<v Speaker 1>my concern about the spying that took place. And maybe

0:14:38.480 --> 0:14:42.160
<v Speaker 1>the most interesting thing two terms he used, frankly, I

0:14:42.200 --> 0:14:45.240
<v Speaker 1>find frightening. He said there was in his judgment he

0:14:45.280 --> 0:14:52.920
<v Speaker 1>thinks there may have been unauthorized surveillance and political surveillance. Oh, yes,

0:14:53.000 --> 0:14:57.560
<v Speaker 1>there was, And that is why the Democrats are a

0:14:57.600 --> 0:15:00.480
<v Speaker 1>bit desperate right now. And that's also why they're going

0:15:00.520 --> 0:15:04.160
<v Speaker 1>after Attorney General bar. I got some breaking news for

0:15:04.320 --> 0:15:06.960
<v Speaker 1>you here. Oh, not of the kind that I particularly

0:15:07.040 --> 0:15:08.880
<v Speaker 1>want to share with you, but it is. The news

0:15:09.040 --> 0:15:12.640
<v Speaker 1>is what it is. The House Judiciary Committee has voted

0:15:12.640 --> 0:15:17.000
<v Speaker 1>twenty four to sixteen to hold Attorney General Bill Barr

0:15:17.120 --> 0:15:21.040
<v Speaker 1>in contempt in the fight over the unredacted Muller Report.

0:15:21.200 --> 0:15:27.080
<v Speaker 1>This is toothless noise and nonsense from the Democrat cry babies,

0:15:27.640 --> 0:15:31.440
<v Speaker 1>overcome with their Trump's Arrangement syndrome, their climate change hysteria,

0:15:31.680 --> 0:15:34.840
<v Speaker 1>their need for safe spaces, and for the destruction of

0:15:34.880 --> 0:15:38.080
<v Speaker 1>their political enemies through any means possible. Now, they're both

0:15:38.160 --> 0:15:41.400
<v Speaker 1>very fragile and very aggressive at the same time. That's

0:15:41.400 --> 0:15:45.200
<v Speaker 1>what you see on the left. But Bill Barr they're

0:15:45.240 --> 0:15:47.840
<v Speaker 1>going after. Here's how this goes. The good news is

0:15:47.880 --> 0:15:50.720
<v Speaker 1>that the only people who could prosecute the Attorney General

0:15:51.320 --> 0:15:56.440
<v Speaker 1>for the contempt of Congress would be the Department of Justice.

0:15:56.640 --> 0:15:58.440
<v Speaker 1>So I don't think there's actually going to be anything

0:15:58.480 --> 0:16:01.440
<v Speaker 1>that comes with this other than Democrats looking like the

0:16:01.520 --> 0:16:03.760
<v Speaker 1>bunch of whiney cry babies that they are. Keep in mind,

0:16:04.680 --> 0:16:09.400
<v Speaker 1>they want the Attorney General to release information that is

0:16:09.920 --> 0:16:13.920
<v Speaker 1>under congressionally pass statute not authorized to be released to

0:16:14.000 --> 0:16:19.000
<v Speaker 1>the Congress. There is such a thing. There are limitations.

0:16:19.040 --> 0:16:21.000
<v Speaker 1>Congress doesn't just get to say I want this thing.

0:16:21.080 --> 0:16:23.080
<v Speaker 1>Therefore I get this thing. That's not how it works.

0:16:24.240 --> 0:16:27.360
<v Speaker 1>But they want him to effectively violate that law. Who

0:16:27.360 --> 0:16:29.960
<v Speaker 1>wants to guess if Congress would be willing to go

0:16:30.000 --> 0:16:32.000
<v Speaker 1>after him if he did break that law by the way,

0:16:32.000 --> 0:16:34.240
<v Speaker 1>I think that they would say, give us, give us

0:16:34.280 --> 0:16:37.720
<v Speaker 1>the six e grand jury material or else. And then

0:16:37.760 --> 0:16:40.120
<v Speaker 1>he said, all right, final, I'll authorize giving you that

0:16:40.200 --> 0:16:43.160
<v Speaker 1>material and say, oh, look at it. Look at Attorney

0:16:43.160 --> 0:16:46.600
<v Speaker 1>General bar willing to undermine the law itself by giving

0:16:46.680 --> 0:16:51.400
<v Speaker 1>us the six e grand jury material. These people are

0:16:52.240 --> 0:16:57.720
<v Speaker 1>utterly unserious. They really are, these democrats. They don't care

0:16:57.920 --> 0:17:01.000
<v Speaker 1>about how foolish this all this to anyone understands anything.

0:17:01.720 --> 0:17:03.040
<v Speaker 1>They don't care that this is just going to go

0:17:03.080 --> 0:17:08.320
<v Speaker 1>into a protracted court battle, and that their response to

0:17:08.880 --> 0:17:12.240
<v Speaker 1>so much of what the administration has done here that

0:17:12.320 --> 0:17:15.119
<v Speaker 1>has been transparent, that has been in good faith, that

0:17:15.200 --> 0:17:20.440
<v Speaker 1>has been all right, we'll go along with this machinery

0:17:20.720 --> 0:17:24.040
<v Speaker 1>of intended parts in destruction, that is the Mueller pro

0:17:24.280 --> 0:17:26.240
<v Speaker 1>will release the report. Bar didn't have to release the

0:17:26.280 --> 0:17:30.119
<v Speaker 1>report at all. The only thing the Special Council Regulation

0:17:30.240 --> 0:17:32.000
<v Speaker 1>says is that a report will be delivered to the

0:17:32.000 --> 0:17:35.480
<v Speaker 1>Attorney General. Attorney General bar would have been completely within

0:17:35.560 --> 0:17:40.320
<v Speaker 1>his rights to hold the entire report. I would have

0:17:40.400 --> 0:17:42.879
<v Speaker 1>recommended that, but he could have done it. Instead, he

0:17:42.920 --> 0:17:47.640
<v Speaker 1>released all but two percent of the report. And even

0:17:47.880 --> 0:17:52.680
<v Speaker 1>CNN is befuddled by how stupid the Democrats look here

0:17:53.000 --> 0:17:55.959
<v Speaker 1>Play fifteen. I find it odd that the Democrats decided

0:17:56.000 --> 0:17:58.560
<v Speaker 1>to use this as the thing to hold the Attorney

0:17:58.560 --> 0:18:00.320
<v Speaker 1>General and in in contempt over. I mean, they have a

0:18:00.320 --> 0:18:01.919
<v Speaker 1>lot of things to be mad at him over they

0:18:02.000 --> 0:18:05.120
<v Speaker 1>accused him of misleading testimony. Obviously, he didn't show up

0:18:05.119 --> 0:18:07.439
<v Speaker 1>for a hearing in the past week. So there's a

0:18:07.480 --> 0:18:09.480
<v Speaker 1>lot of things that they can be mad about, and

0:18:09.520 --> 0:18:12.240
<v Speaker 1>this one. This is a report that is ninety two

0:18:12.280 --> 0:18:15.560
<v Speaker 1>percent public. Only eight percent of it was unredacted the

0:18:15.600 --> 0:18:18.440
<v Speaker 1>Attorney General last week, and this testimony said only two

0:18:18.480 --> 0:18:20.879
<v Speaker 1>percent of volume two, which is the thing that the

0:18:20.920 --> 0:18:24.320
<v Speaker 1>Democrats say they care most about, the obstruction part is redacted.

0:18:24.440 --> 0:18:27.160
<v Speaker 1>So you know, it's kind of hard to understand how

0:18:27.200 --> 0:18:31.200
<v Speaker 1>they went nuclear so quickly on this. It seems rather

0:18:31.600 --> 0:18:34.320
<v Speaker 1>like they have started a constitutional crisis, not the other

0:18:34.320 --> 0:18:40.920
<v Speaker 1>way around. Yep, the Democrats started this constitutional crisis. Don't

0:18:40.920 --> 0:18:43.760
<v Speaker 1>forget that too. For a few weeks now, I've been

0:19:43.960 --> 0:19:48.240
<v Speaker 1>and every time he uses it, he is lying, and

0:19:48.400 --> 0:19:52.400
<v Speaker 1>that is the word spy. His baseless claims of spies.

0:19:52.600 --> 0:19:55.080
<v Speaker 1>This is the president in the United States telling people

0:19:55.160 --> 0:19:58.760
<v Speaker 1>don't believe what this federal government is doing, and that

0:19:58.800 --> 0:20:02.199
<v Speaker 1>has very, very dangerous consequences. The notion that somehow the

0:20:02.240 --> 0:20:07.879
<v Speaker 1>FBI implanted, planted someone inside the campaign to spy on

0:20:07.960 --> 0:20:11.080
<v Speaker 1>the campaign is just not true. There's absolutely no evidence

0:20:11.119 --> 0:20:13.760
<v Speaker 1>there was a spy. He wants you to believe that

0:20:13.880 --> 0:20:16.280
<v Speaker 1>his campaign was spied on, and it's one of the

0:20:16.320 --> 0:20:20.919
<v Speaker 1>worst things that we've ever seen from government. The media

0:20:21.000 --> 0:20:24.280
<v Speaker 1>is a total disgrace. Okay, So to start with that

0:20:25.200 --> 0:20:28.439
<v Speaker 1>total disgrace, and you know, there you have just some

0:20:28.560 --> 0:20:31.639
<v Speaker 1>of the usual anti Trump voices with the hysteria, the

0:20:31.680 --> 0:20:35.440
<v Speaker 1>nonsense about how there wasn't spying. Here's a headline from

0:20:35.440 --> 0:20:37.600
<v Speaker 1>twenty seventeen, and this is something I know quite a

0:20:37.640 --> 0:20:39.320
<v Speaker 1>bit about because I was a part of the unit

0:20:39.359 --> 0:20:42.960
<v Speaker 1>of the NYPD that was accused of this. The headline

0:20:43.040 --> 0:20:48.760
<v Speaker 1>is quote after spying on Muslims, new York Police agree

0:20:48.800 --> 0:20:54.760
<v Speaker 1>to greater oversight. Now, hold on a second. Here, I

0:20:54.800 --> 0:20:58.320
<v Speaker 1>was in this unit of the NYPD. I was working

0:20:58.440 --> 0:21:01.200
<v Speaker 1>day after day in day out on these very cases

0:21:01.200 --> 0:21:04.040
<v Speaker 1>with these individuals, working with the undercovers, working with the

0:21:04.119 --> 0:21:09.679
<v Speaker 1>people that were confidential informants, and all of the stuff

0:21:09.720 --> 0:21:13.440
<v Speaker 1>that was being done, all of it was memorialized in writing.

0:21:14.080 --> 0:21:18.520
<v Speaker 1>There was a criminal predicate, there was a reasonable suspicion standard,

0:21:18.560 --> 0:21:20.800
<v Speaker 1>there was I mean, we were going through we had

0:21:20.880 --> 0:21:25.800
<v Speaker 1>lawyers reviewing everything. It was all done within what we're

0:21:25.800 --> 0:21:29.840
<v Speaker 1>thought to be the boundaries of legitimate law enforce And

0:21:30.000 --> 0:21:34.080
<v Speaker 1>but because of political sensitivities, people are saying, well, you're

0:21:34.560 --> 0:21:37.520
<v Speaker 1>you're looking for terrorism. What's all this stuff, what's all

0:21:37.560 --> 0:21:42.480
<v Speaker 1>the surveillance of mosques that's going on. Most terrorist plots

0:21:42.480 --> 0:21:44.720
<v Speaker 1>against the city of New York have a nexus in

0:21:44.800 --> 0:21:47.520
<v Speaker 1>a mosque. Because most of the major terrorist plots against

0:21:47.520 --> 0:21:49.000
<v Speaker 1>the city of New York, at least for the last

0:21:49.040 --> 0:21:53.600
<v Speaker 1>twenty years or so, have involved radical Islam. You know,

0:21:54.320 --> 0:21:56.960
<v Speaker 1>we can get sad about this or we can be

0:21:57.080 --> 0:22:01.439
<v Speaker 1>upset about that reality. But that's just the truth. I

0:22:01.560 --> 0:22:04.000
<v Speaker 1>had friends who worked in the White Nationalist unit. There

0:22:04.040 --> 0:22:06.920
<v Speaker 1>was a white nationalist unit of the NYPD. They were very,

0:22:07.640 --> 0:22:12.840
<v Speaker 1>very bored, nothing to do. There was an anarchist terrorist

0:22:12.880 --> 0:22:15.480
<v Speaker 1>unit there there. You know, there are different cyber terrorism

0:22:15.560 --> 0:22:17.399
<v Speaker 1>units that we had, all kinds of stuff. You know,

0:22:17.400 --> 0:22:20.040
<v Speaker 1>who was really busy the hey, we have to stop

0:22:20.040 --> 0:22:22.840
<v Speaker 1>guys who want to yell Allahu akbar blowing up Times Square.

0:22:23.200 --> 0:22:26.199
<v Speaker 1>That unit, that was my unit. We were busy with

0:22:26.280 --> 0:22:29.119
<v Speaker 1>things to do. But let me just get back to

0:22:29.160 --> 0:22:32.000
<v Speaker 1>this headline here in the New York Times. After spying

0:22:32.119 --> 0:22:36.560
<v Speaker 1>on Muslims, New York Police agreed a greater oversight. There

0:22:36.640 --> 0:22:39.639
<v Speaker 1>was no spying. It was it was surveillance, you see,

0:22:40.960 --> 0:22:45.359
<v Speaker 1>it was surveillance. It was legally predicated investigative work. I

0:22:45.440 --> 0:22:51.160
<v Speaker 1>could play these games all day. The word spying appears

0:22:51.240 --> 0:22:55.480
<v Speaker 1>in this New York Times right up, over and over again.

0:22:55.600 --> 0:22:57.240
<v Speaker 1>And do you know what they're really talking about in

0:22:57.520 --> 0:23:04.199
<v Speaker 1>some of these cases. They are talking about reporting on

0:23:04.240 --> 0:23:08.000
<v Speaker 1>stuff that is out in the open. We're not talking

0:23:08.000 --> 0:23:12.440
<v Speaker 1>about FISA here, folks. We're not talking about using the

0:23:12.480 --> 0:23:17.560
<v Speaker 1>most technologically advanced and invasive capabilities the federal government has.

0:23:17.640 --> 0:23:20.320
<v Speaker 1>We're talking about Hey, did you hear what that he

0:23:20.440 --> 0:23:23.080
<v Speaker 1>mom said about how like we need to strike against

0:23:23.080 --> 0:23:26.360
<v Speaker 1>the infidels and you know, maybe somebody should take up jihad.

0:23:27.320 --> 0:23:29.360
<v Speaker 1>Yeah he said it in front of the congregation. But

0:23:29.400 --> 0:23:33.720
<v Speaker 1>you know that's spying. It's in a public place, but

0:23:33.840 --> 0:23:37.880
<v Speaker 1>that's spying, okay. And I just want to know where

0:23:37.880 --> 0:23:39.720
<v Speaker 1>the boundaries are. I want to know what the real

0:23:39.880 --> 0:23:44.320
<v Speaker 1>rules are supposed to be. I want to know what

0:23:44.680 --> 0:23:50.040
<v Speaker 1>they contend. Here is now the new guide post for

0:23:50.080 --> 0:23:52.600
<v Speaker 1>we'll qualify as the spying. I mean the Democrats that

0:23:52.720 --> 0:23:55.240
<v Speaker 1>they're just so it's hard to have a conversation with

0:23:55.280 --> 0:23:57.880
<v Speaker 1>them because they're so delusional on all this stuff. And

0:23:57.920 --> 0:23:59.600
<v Speaker 1>that's really the theme of the of the show today

0:23:59.680 --> 0:24:01.719
<v Speaker 1>is just the Democrats have They've lost their minds on

0:24:01.760 --> 0:24:04.600
<v Speaker 1>a lot of issues, on the climate change stuff, on

0:24:04.680 --> 0:24:08.959
<v Speaker 1>Russia collusion. No longer able to have a normal conversation

0:24:09.000 --> 0:24:13.520
<v Speaker 1>with them. And here, if we're going to talk about

0:24:13.520 --> 0:24:18.359
<v Speaker 1>how how crazy it can get, you might as well

0:24:18.480 --> 0:24:22.199
<v Speaker 1>take a moment to hear from I just want to

0:24:22.200 --> 0:24:24.680
<v Speaker 1>make sure I have the right guy. Oh, yes, that's right,

0:24:24.800 --> 0:24:28.800
<v Speaker 1>Steve Steve Cohen play sixteen. We've got a man who

0:24:28.840 --> 0:24:33.760
<v Speaker 1>has been suggested might be financially dependent on the Russians.

0:24:34.040 --> 0:24:36.320
<v Speaker 1>Why would he be financially dependent on the Russians? Will

0:24:36.359 --> 0:24:38.840
<v Speaker 1>we now know? He lost over a billion dollars in

0:24:38.920 --> 0:24:41.520
<v Speaker 1>a decade in the eighties and nineties. He was broke.

0:24:41.800 --> 0:24:44.160
<v Speaker 1>No bank would loan him a penny. He was broke,

0:24:44.480 --> 0:24:46.719
<v Speaker 1>and if it weren't for him being president, he'd be

0:24:46.720 --> 0:24:50.600
<v Speaker 1>in prison with Michael Cohen today as individual one. And

0:24:50.680 --> 0:24:53.359
<v Speaker 1>he obstructed justice, as the Muel Report says it. So

0:24:53.920 --> 0:24:59.399
<v Speaker 1>we are in danger. We are in danger of hearing

0:24:59.400 --> 0:25:02.560
<v Speaker 1>the dumb stuff ever uttered by any human being. That's

0:25:02.560 --> 0:25:06.200
<v Speaker 1>what we're in danger of. What the heck is Steve

0:25:06.280 --> 0:25:10.520
<v Speaker 1>Cohen talking about? I mean that is really that is

0:25:10.640 --> 0:25:13.600
<v Speaker 1>a if you were creating a symptom chart. Ever you're

0:25:13.680 --> 0:25:15.399
<v Speaker 1>in the doctor's office, they have all like that, you know,

0:25:15.480 --> 0:25:16.879
<v Speaker 1>if you have a coff or if you have and

0:25:16.960 --> 0:25:18.680
<v Speaker 1>they walk you through some of they have these charts

0:25:18.680 --> 0:25:22.159
<v Speaker 1>on the walls. If you had a symptom chart of

0:25:22.200 --> 0:25:25.400
<v Speaker 1>Trump's arrangement syndrome, you could put Steve Cohen's little monologue

0:25:25.440 --> 0:25:31.280
<v Speaker 1>there right on it financially dependent on Russia, and we

0:25:31.359 --> 0:25:35.240
<v Speaker 1>are in danger. He lost a billion dollars and was broke.

0:25:36.200 --> 0:25:41.159
<v Speaker 1>Where is the evidence of a financial dependence on Russia?

0:25:41.720 --> 0:25:44.800
<v Speaker 1>Where or is he getting this from? This is a

0:25:44.800 --> 0:25:46.760
<v Speaker 1>member of Congress, my friends. This is not just some

0:25:46.840 --> 0:25:50.320
<v Speaker 1>crazy guy who's ranting on the internet somewhere in some

0:25:51.040 --> 0:25:55.800
<v Speaker 1>comments section, he's saying that Trump maybe still depended on Russia.

0:25:56.480 --> 0:26:02.800
<v Speaker 1>There's so much of Trump's background, finances, everything, the Muller Report.

0:26:02.840 --> 0:26:04.639
<v Speaker 1>Don't you think that Mueller would have been able to

0:26:04.640 --> 0:26:07.840
<v Speaker 1>figure out if all of Trump's money came from Russia.

0:26:08.000 --> 0:26:10.320
<v Speaker 1>Don't you think that we would know at some level

0:26:10.359 --> 0:26:13.480
<v Speaker 1>if that were the case. At this point, any same

0:26:13.560 --> 0:26:17.360
<v Speaker 1>person would say yes. But we're not talking about same

0:26:17.400 --> 0:26:22.000
<v Speaker 1>people anymore. We're talking about something else here. With these

0:26:22.040 --> 0:26:28.000
<v Speaker 1>anti Trump lives. We are in danger of a political

0:26:28.040 --> 0:26:31.000
<v Speaker 1>schism in this country based upon the reality based and

0:26:32.160 --> 0:26:36.760
<v Speaker 1>the Trump deranged and crazy. We might already be there,

0:26:36.920 --> 0:26:38.639
<v Speaker 1>and I don't know how we come back from it.

0:26:38.720 --> 0:26:41.119
<v Speaker 1>But that's what makes me think we're in danger. But

0:26:41.240 --> 0:26:43.639
<v Speaker 1>you have tens of thousands of FBI agents on the

0:26:43.640 --> 0:26:46.960
<v Speaker 1>front lines every day doing work to protect America. To

0:26:47.080 --> 0:26:50.720
<v Speaker 1>keep this country safe. And when the Attorney General undermines

0:26:50.800 --> 0:26:53.280
<v Speaker 1>the integrity of those agents by suggesting they're involved in

0:26:53.359 --> 0:26:56.760
<v Speaker 1>spying against a president, what does that do to the reputation? Yeah,

0:26:56.760 --> 0:27:00.960
<v Speaker 1>it's deeply concerning because ordinary folks will accept what the

0:27:01.000 --> 0:27:03.920
<v Speaker 1>president says, what the Attorney General says, and that hurts

0:27:03.920 --> 0:27:07.360
<v Speaker 1>our ability to be trusted as FBI agents in courtrooms

0:27:07.359 --> 0:27:11.720
<v Speaker 1>and at doorways. So it's a very bad thing. Sank

0:27:11.800 --> 0:27:14.680
<v Speaker 1>to Comy here in full effect, with an assist from

0:27:14.680 --> 0:27:18.439
<v Speaker 1>a mainstream lib reporter there, Nora o'donald now is going

0:27:18.480 --> 0:27:20.800
<v Speaker 1>to be taking the Dan rather set at cbscving news.

0:27:20.840 --> 0:27:22.880
<v Speaker 1>I wonder how long before she's engaged in her own

0:27:22.920 --> 0:27:28.679
<v Speaker 1>massive fake news scandal. But sank to Comy takes that,

0:27:28.840 --> 0:27:31.880
<v Speaker 1>takes what she's given them, and runs with it. This

0:27:31.960 --> 0:27:33.920
<v Speaker 1>is a classic. This is the media has been doing

0:27:33.920 --> 0:27:36.240
<v Speaker 1>this now for two years. What they say is anytime

0:27:36.320 --> 0:27:39.560
<v Speaker 1>Trump criticizes anything that's gone on with the FBI with

0:27:39.600 --> 0:27:42.720
<v Speaker 1>regard to thus spying. We'll get into that in a second.

0:27:43.440 --> 0:27:46.360
<v Speaker 1>The way this was handled, we've seen the text messages

0:27:46.400 --> 0:27:48.600
<v Speaker 1>from Page and Struck. We know that there was bias

0:27:48.640 --> 0:27:51.560
<v Speaker 1>against Trump. We know that they hated for President Trump,

0:27:51.600 --> 0:27:54.440
<v Speaker 1>and they were working to undermine him, to destroy his candidacy,

0:27:54.520 --> 0:27:58.480
<v Speaker 1>to destroy his presidency. We know that James Coomy, as

0:27:58.520 --> 0:28:02.240
<v Speaker 1>a former FBI direct leaked memos to The New York

0:28:02.280 --> 0:28:04.560
<v Speaker 1>Times to get payback. I mean, this is not ethical,

0:28:04.640 --> 0:28:07.760
<v Speaker 1>okay stuff to do. But when you point that out,

0:28:08.960 --> 0:28:11.000
<v Speaker 1>when you say, hold on a second, there was bad

0:28:11.080 --> 0:28:14.960
<v Speaker 1>behavior at the FBI, behavior that the Inspector General found.

0:28:15.520 --> 0:28:18.919
<v Speaker 1>Why Why did Andy mccabbe get fired right before he

0:28:19.000 --> 0:28:22.560
<v Speaker 1>was going to start collecting his pension. Why did James

0:28:22.560 --> 0:28:27.000
<v Speaker 1>came get fired by the President United States? Why were

0:28:27.040 --> 0:28:32.919
<v Speaker 1>these actions taken? You know, struck Page demoted from their jobs,

0:28:32.920 --> 0:28:36.400
<v Speaker 1>from their roles. Why has all this happened? Because none

0:28:36.400 --> 0:28:39.200
<v Speaker 1>of them did anything wrong. But you see that the

0:28:39.280 --> 0:28:43.840
<v Speaker 1>straw man that Nora Nora O'Donnell sets up there is well,

0:28:44.080 --> 0:28:46.960
<v Speaker 1>there's all these tens of thousands of FBI and he's

0:28:47.000 --> 0:28:48.760
<v Speaker 1>doing all this good work. No one's saying that everyone

0:28:48.760 --> 0:28:51.280
<v Speaker 1>the FBI is bad. No one saying the FBI is

0:28:51.320 --> 0:28:55.120
<v Speaker 1>not a great American law enforcement institution. Trump is merely

0:28:55.160 --> 0:28:58.080
<v Speaker 1>saying that some of the people running it did really

0:28:58.080 --> 0:29:03.600
<v Speaker 1>bad stuff. And if it weren't hurting Trump. I'd promise

0:29:03.720 --> 0:29:09.440
<v Speaker 1>you the Lib media who usually love to dump all

0:29:09.440 --> 0:29:12.320
<v Speaker 1>over law enforcement, now this is the same Lib media,

0:29:12.360 --> 0:29:16.800
<v Speaker 1>and I have not forgotten that under Obama were completely

0:29:16.880 --> 0:29:20.000
<v Speaker 1>willing to go along. Cops are racist, not a cop,

0:29:20.160 --> 0:29:26.000
<v Speaker 1>cops cops plural in general. Racist cops are not to

0:29:26.080 --> 0:29:30.000
<v Speaker 1>be trusted. Cops engage in, you know, the racist hunting

0:29:30.040 --> 0:29:35.200
<v Speaker 1>of minority men. Know all this stuff, there was there

0:29:35.280 --> 0:29:37.960
<v Speaker 1>was no there was no effort at pushback from the Nora.

0:29:38.000 --> 0:29:40.760
<v Speaker 1>O'donald's a hold on a second. You know, vast majority

0:29:41.280 --> 0:29:42.920
<v Speaker 1>law enforcement is doing a great job day to day

0:29:42.920 --> 0:29:44.560
<v Speaker 1>across the country. Yeah, there are a couple of bad

0:29:44.560 --> 0:29:46.120
<v Speaker 1>cops here and there, of course, but there's a couple

0:29:46.120 --> 0:29:50.680
<v Speaker 1>of bad everything's in any large profession there. That wasn't it.

0:29:50.680 --> 0:29:54.080
<v Speaker 1>It was no Black lives matter. We need to hear

0:29:54.160 --> 0:29:56.120
<v Speaker 1>more from them, We need to hear about how racist

0:29:56.160 --> 0:29:58.760
<v Speaker 1>and terrible the cops are. And then people like me

0:29:58.840 --> 0:30:02.560
<v Speaker 1>would say, you have millions of interactions between law enforcement

0:30:03.080 --> 0:30:08.960
<v Speaker 1>and American men and women across the country every year,

0:30:09.360 --> 0:30:13.120
<v Speaker 1>and you have less than a hundred law enforcement involved

0:30:13.160 --> 0:30:16.840
<v Speaker 1>fatal shootings in the country. Three hundred and twenty million

0:30:16.880 --> 0:30:19.000
<v Speaker 1>people in this country less than one hundred law enforce

0:30:19.040 --> 0:30:20.680
<v Speaker 1>involved shootings, and we're gonna act like this is a

0:30:20.760 --> 0:30:23.440
<v Speaker 1>national crisis. That needs to be the biggest news store

0:30:23.480 --> 0:30:26.680
<v Speaker 1>in the country, and that is going to justify, at

0:30:26.760 --> 0:30:31.920
<v Speaker 1>least to the left, actions including people like neighborhoods on fire, looting,

0:30:31.960 --> 0:30:36.520
<v Speaker 1>CBS's look what happened in Ferguson. Look what happened in Baltimore.

0:30:36.880 --> 0:30:38.920
<v Speaker 1>You know that where was the media? They're saying, Hold

0:30:38.920 --> 0:30:40.640
<v Speaker 1>on a second, law enforcement is doing a great job

0:30:40.680 --> 0:30:42.840
<v Speaker 1>in this country. It's not fair to tar them all

0:30:43.200 --> 0:30:47.120
<v Speaker 1>with the same brush because of or paint them all

0:30:47.120 --> 0:30:50.320
<v Speaker 1>at the same brush because of what's you know, gone

0:30:50.320 --> 0:30:53.960
<v Speaker 1>on in a few places here or there. It's just

0:30:54.040 --> 0:30:56.120
<v Speaker 1>not fair. They weren't saying that, but oh no the FBI.

0:30:56.240 --> 0:30:59.920
<v Speaker 1>Oh every time Trump criticizes the FBI's seen your face

0:31:00.320 --> 0:31:04.480
<v Speaker 1>who have engaged in bad behavior. Then you have this

0:31:04.560 --> 0:31:06.440
<v Speaker 1>the media. It's an assist I mean, it's like she

0:31:06.560 --> 0:31:08.320
<v Speaker 1>threw she threw the ball up in the air for

0:31:08.400 --> 0:31:10.760
<v Speaker 1>Comby to dunk it. That's what that was. Don't you

0:31:10.800 --> 0:31:14.240
<v Speaker 1>think the FBI has all these great people everywhere? Republicans

0:31:14.240 --> 0:31:17.440
<v Speaker 1>are the ones who like the FBI the Libs and Democrats,

0:31:17.480 --> 0:31:20.040
<v Speaker 1>the ones who usually like, oh, law enforcement can't trust them.

0:31:20.240 --> 0:31:23.480
<v Speaker 1>They enforce the law. The laws a disproportionate impact in

0:31:23.520 --> 0:31:26.880
<v Speaker 1>a lot of cases on minorities. Therefore law enforcement must

0:31:26.880 --> 0:31:32.240
<v Speaker 1>be racist. That's usually their position. Who are the ones,

0:31:32.280 --> 0:31:34.240
<v Speaker 1>by the way, who want to do have been pushing

0:31:34.320 --> 0:31:36.479
<v Speaker 1>harder for a criminal justice reform. It's actually the right,

0:31:36.520 --> 0:31:41.719
<v Speaker 1>it's not the left. But then we have the usual

0:31:42.000 --> 0:31:46.560
<v Speaker 1>sank to Coomy nonsense here about about the FBI does

0:31:46.640 --> 0:31:49.600
<v Speaker 1>not spy. Remember John Brennan said the CIA does not spy.

0:31:49.680 --> 0:31:52.200
<v Speaker 1>I mean, so he's just an imbecile. Guys, the head

0:31:52.440 --> 0:31:54.080
<v Speaker 1>was the head of a spying agency. I don't know

0:31:54.080 --> 0:31:55.640
<v Speaker 1>how people show up to work there and not think

0:31:56.480 --> 0:31:59.520
<v Speaker 1>what kind of bozos used to run this place? I

0:31:59.600 --> 0:32:01.240
<v Speaker 1>think that, and I haven't been in the building and

0:32:01.920 --> 0:32:06.240
<v Speaker 1>got it over a decade now. But here's the Komi

0:32:06.400 --> 0:32:08.520
<v Speaker 1>version of what the FBI does and whether they're spy

0:32:08.640 --> 0:32:12.960
<v Speaker 1>or not. Play eleven. The FBI doesn't spy. The FBI investigates.

0:32:13.360 --> 0:32:17.720
<v Speaker 1>We investigated a very serious allegation that Americans might be

0:32:17.760 --> 0:32:20.560
<v Speaker 1>hooked up with the Russian effort to attack our democracy.

0:32:20.880 --> 0:32:23.960
<v Speaker 1>The Republicans need to breathe into a paper bag. If

0:32:24.080 --> 0:32:27.160
<v Speaker 1>we had confronted the same facts with a different candidate,

0:32:27.200 --> 0:32:30.080
<v Speaker 1>say a Democrat candidate, where one of their advisors was

0:32:30.120 --> 0:32:34.840
<v Speaker 1>talking to a foreign adversaries representative about that adversary's interference

0:32:34.840 --> 0:32:37.000
<v Speaker 1>in our election, they would be screaming for the FBI

0:32:37.040 --> 0:32:39.720
<v Speaker 1>to investigate. And that's all we did. That is a lie.

0:32:40.200 --> 0:32:44.120
<v Speaker 1>All of what he said there is a lie. Foreign

0:32:44.280 --> 0:32:49.120
<v Speaker 1>who's wait speaking the foreign representative? So now we're going

0:32:49.200 --> 0:32:51.280
<v Speaker 1>to now we're going to play this game, or we

0:32:51.400 --> 0:32:53.080
<v Speaker 1>don't have the facts that we have? Is that what

0:32:53.120 --> 0:32:56.920
<v Speaker 1>we're doing sankt to Komy because Papadopopolis was approached by

0:32:57.440 --> 0:33:00.560
<v Speaker 1>somebody who was sent to him by the FBI as

0:33:00.560 --> 0:33:05.440
<v Speaker 1>a setup. So for who's the foreign representative of the

0:33:05.440 --> 0:33:09.160
<v Speaker 1>country here, or we're going to go back to the

0:33:09.240 --> 0:33:12.320
<v Speaker 1>meeting and Trump Tower, is that that wasn't what started

0:33:12.320 --> 0:33:14.280
<v Speaker 1>the investigation, Folks that have nothing to do with anything.

0:33:14.280 --> 0:33:17.160
<v Speaker 1>And that meeting that you know, if if that's a

0:33:17.280 --> 0:33:19.200
<v Speaker 1>terrible meeting and that's illegal, then you have to explain

0:33:19.200 --> 0:33:23.120
<v Speaker 1>to me why paying for Russian OPO research for the

0:33:23.200 --> 0:33:26.920
<v Speaker 1>dossier is okay. If you pay for the activity, then

0:33:26.920 --> 0:33:30.440
<v Speaker 1>it's fine. I know a lot of guys I would say, WHOA,

0:33:30.480 --> 0:33:35.479
<v Speaker 1>I didn't know that was the case. So homie though,

0:33:35.520 --> 0:33:37.880
<v Speaker 1>saying the FBI does not spy and investigates, I mean,

0:33:37.920 --> 0:33:42.200
<v Speaker 1>that's just that's just a lie. What the FBI does

0:33:42.280 --> 0:33:44.240
<v Speaker 1>with the counterintelligence powers that it has. I mean you

0:33:44.280 --> 0:33:47.200
<v Speaker 1>could always call that, you could call any spying investigating.

0:33:48.320 --> 0:33:51.960
<v Speaker 1>If if I you know, if I task somebody to

0:33:52.240 --> 0:33:54.640
<v Speaker 1>show up in a foreign country and try to get

0:33:54.720 --> 0:33:57.800
<v Speaker 1>access to their sensitive information, they're investigating. You know, we

0:33:57.840 --> 0:34:03.200
<v Speaker 1>can play these word games all day. The FBI engages

0:34:03.840 --> 0:34:08.560
<v Speaker 1>in counterintelligence activity. The FBI is considered a member of

0:34:08.600 --> 0:34:12.880
<v Speaker 1>the intelligence community. Local law enforcements not a member of

0:34:12.880 --> 0:34:15.960
<v Speaker 1>the intelligence community. Your state you know, your statees or

0:34:16.000 --> 0:34:20.239
<v Speaker 1>your state state troopers, they're not members of the intelligence community.

0:34:20.360 --> 0:34:23.680
<v Speaker 1>Why is the FBI a member of the intelligence community.

0:34:24.000 --> 0:34:26.680
<v Speaker 1>Because there's a difference between intelligence and law enforcement, and

0:34:26.760 --> 0:34:32.120
<v Speaker 1>the FBI does both. I know because I've worked with

0:34:32.320 --> 0:34:36.840
<v Speaker 1>FBI in their intelligence capacity and I worked foreign intelligence agency.

0:34:37.000 --> 0:34:40.000
<v Speaker 1>This definitely isn't hard. But Comey's a clown and a liar,

0:34:41.640 --> 0:34:44.960
<v Speaker 1>and his day is coming, folks. When we see what

0:34:45.080 --> 0:34:47.520
<v Speaker 1>really happened here, we see what he signed off on

0:34:47.640 --> 0:34:50.000
<v Speaker 1>what he was a part of. I mean, a lot

0:34:50.000 --> 0:34:54.759
<v Speaker 1>of people saying, oh, hey, I guess I misread James Comey.

0:34:55.719 --> 0:34:57.480
<v Speaker 1>All you really have to know about this guy other

0:34:57.480 --> 0:34:59.160
<v Speaker 1>than the fact that he says stupid things like the

0:34:59.200 --> 0:35:02.680
<v Speaker 1>FBI does not, by it clearly does. Okay, the FBI spies.

0:35:03.800 --> 0:35:08.000
<v Speaker 1>We have this this uh, And then there's an interesting

0:35:08.080 --> 0:35:10.000
<v Speaker 1>kind of gray area and conversation here. In a lot

0:35:10.000 --> 0:35:14.919
<v Speaker 1>of other countries, the primary federal law enforcement agency does,

0:35:14.960 --> 0:35:20.799
<v Speaker 1>in fact do spying. Does in fact, uh, you know,

0:35:20.960 --> 0:35:25.680
<v Speaker 1>do M I five like work? Right that you have?

0:35:25.760 --> 0:35:31.200
<v Speaker 1>You have a domestic intelligence agency that is engaged in that. Here,

0:35:31.200 --> 0:35:34.000
<v Speaker 1>the FBI does domestic intelligence agency work. But we still

0:35:34.040 --> 0:35:38.360
<v Speaker 1>call a law enforcement agency, you know, we don't. We

0:35:38.440 --> 0:35:41.120
<v Speaker 1>have a slightly different system. But the FBI really doubles

0:35:41.239 --> 0:35:44.560
<v Speaker 1>double hats on this. But if all you really up

0:35:44.600 --> 0:35:47.680
<v Speaker 1>to know about James Comey's a following that he took

0:35:47.719 --> 0:35:51.279
<v Speaker 1>the position that Martha Stewart, Okay, I know you're buck,

0:35:51.360 --> 0:35:53.160
<v Speaker 1>what do you I know, I'm all hung up on

0:35:53.160 --> 0:35:55.600
<v Speaker 1>the Martha's just trust me on this one, Okay. He

0:35:55.640 --> 0:35:58.759
<v Speaker 1>took the position to the shock of his colleagues, some

0:35:58.800 --> 0:36:01.720
<v Speaker 1>of whom I have talked to. Okay, in the federal

0:36:02.160 --> 0:36:07.839
<v Speaker 1>prosecutor community, that Martha Stewart saying she was innocent of

0:36:08.120 --> 0:36:12.960
<v Speaker 1>insider trading was itself a form of fraud because it

0:36:13.040 --> 0:36:18.040
<v Speaker 1>propped up the stock price of her company. The most convoluted,

0:36:18.560 --> 0:36:23.319
<v Speaker 1>nonsensical legal theory imaginable under the circumstances. That was a comyism.

0:36:24.680 --> 0:36:27.040
<v Speaker 1>And now he's here's probably a mullerism too. Muller would

0:36:27.080 --> 0:36:29.719
<v Speaker 1>go for some nonsense like that as well. Comey is

0:36:29.800 --> 0:36:33.080
<v Speaker 1>not a good guy. He had a lot of people

0:36:33.120 --> 0:36:37.200
<v Speaker 1>at the FBI apparently brainwashed with all of his Holier

0:36:37.200 --> 0:36:40.520
<v Speaker 1>than now bullcrap, and we're going to find out more

0:36:40.560 --> 0:36:42.279
<v Speaker 1>about what Comy really did, and it's not going to

0:36:42.320 --> 0:36:45.360
<v Speaker 1>look good for this guy. We consider a report recommending

0:36:45.360 --> 0:36:48.640
<v Speaker 1>that the House of Representatives hold Attorney General William Barr

0:36:48.640 --> 0:36:52.240
<v Speaker 1>in contempt of Congress for defying a valid subpoena issued

0:36:52.280 --> 0:36:55.800
<v Speaker 1>by this committee. This is not a step we take lightly.

0:36:56.400 --> 0:36:59.279
<v Speaker 1>It is the culmination of nearly three months of requests

0:36:59.640 --> 0:37:03.560
<v Speaker 1>to cushions and negotiations with the Department of Justice for

0:37:03.719 --> 0:37:07.760
<v Speaker 1>a complete, unredacted report by Special Counsel Mueller into Russian

0:37:07.760 --> 0:37:11.640
<v Speaker 1>interference in the twenty sixteen election, along with the underlying

0:37:11.680 --> 0:37:20.799
<v Speaker 1>evidence unredacted report. Madler is demanding, what is really going

0:37:20.840 --> 0:37:24.719
<v Speaker 1>on with this fight that is brewing or it's actually underway,

0:37:24.760 --> 0:37:28.279
<v Speaker 1>I should say brewing between the executive branch and Congress.

0:37:28.320 --> 0:37:30.520
<v Speaker 1>What are the Damns demanding? What is all this about?

0:37:30.560 --> 0:37:32.799
<v Speaker 1>Our friend Shaun Davis joins us now. He's a co

0:37:32.880 --> 0:37:35.480
<v Speaker 1>founder at the Federalist. You can see the Federalist dot

0:37:35.520 --> 0:37:38.480
<v Speaker 1>com for all the fantastic work and writing that they

0:37:38.480 --> 0:37:41.560
<v Speaker 1>do over there. But Sean also was chief investigator for

0:37:41.640 --> 0:37:44.680
<v Speaker 1>Senator Tom Coburn, so he knows a thig or two

0:37:44.719 --> 0:37:47.719
<v Speaker 1>about the infighting on Capitol Hill over getting the documents

0:37:47.719 --> 0:37:49.920
<v Speaker 1>and how all this stuff works. Good man to talk

0:37:49.920 --> 0:37:52.600
<v Speaker 1>about us today, Sean, Thanks for making the time, Thanks

0:37:52.640 --> 0:37:56.640
<v Speaker 1>for having me, all right, Sean, First off, the report

0:37:56.920 --> 0:37:59.880
<v Speaker 1>has been released. Okay, the Mueller's Special Council Report is

0:38:00.040 --> 0:38:03.400
<v Speaker 1>out there. I think two percent of it is redacted,

0:38:03.400 --> 0:38:08.160
<v Speaker 1>over four hundred and forty pages released, and the Democrats

0:38:08.160 --> 0:38:11.360
<v Speaker 1>are demanding what what is their beef here? Can you

0:38:11.400 --> 0:38:15.080
<v Speaker 1>just walk us through what are they claiming? The problem is? So,

0:38:15.120 --> 0:38:18.200
<v Speaker 1>as best I can tell, Democrats are demanding a couple

0:38:18.200 --> 0:38:22.279
<v Speaker 1>of things. They are demanding a full, unredacted report, which

0:38:22.360 --> 0:38:26.280
<v Speaker 1>includes grand jury information which by law, the Attorney General

0:38:26.320 --> 0:38:29.359
<v Speaker 1>can't share with anyone. And they're also demanding what they're

0:38:29.480 --> 0:38:32.360
<v Speaker 1>calling all of the underlying evidence, all of the interviews,

0:38:32.360 --> 0:38:34.839
<v Speaker 1>all the documents from the White House, all the transcripts,

0:38:34.840 --> 0:38:38.399
<v Speaker 1>all the White House staffers notes. And while I am

0:38:38.480 --> 0:38:41.279
<v Speaker 1>sympathetic to them to their request when it comes to

0:38:41.640 --> 0:38:45.880
<v Speaker 1>asking for, say, DOJ documents, kind of stuff that falls

0:38:45.920 --> 0:38:50.080
<v Speaker 1>within typical congressional oversight of an agency they created, like

0:38:50.120 --> 0:38:53.000
<v Speaker 1>the Department of Justice, the demands that they're making now

0:38:53.840 --> 0:38:56.440
<v Speaker 1>they're silly and they're just not based in reality or

0:38:56.480 --> 0:38:59.839
<v Speaker 1>based in law. I kind of laughed at that NAD

0:39:00.080 --> 0:39:02.160
<v Speaker 1>clip when he says we've been demanding this report for

0:39:02.200 --> 0:39:04.879
<v Speaker 1>three months. Well, the report hasn't existed for three months.

0:39:05.920 --> 0:39:09.240
<v Speaker 1>It's barely existed for even two if that. So I

0:39:09.000 --> 0:39:11.120
<v Speaker 1>think I think he's a little out to lunch on this,

0:39:11.239 --> 0:39:14.040
<v Speaker 1>and I think what's actually going on because a couple

0:39:14.040 --> 0:39:16.120
<v Speaker 1>of things. Democrats are mad that there was no collusion

0:39:16.120 --> 0:39:19.000
<v Speaker 1>and no obstructions, so they're trying to scramble and recover

0:39:19.080 --> 0:39:22.000
<v Speaker 1>from that, because that was a pretty big blow. I

0:39:22.040 --> 0:39:24.640
<v Speaker 1>think they're terrified at what Bar is going to under

0:39:25.200 --> 0:39:28.400
<v Speaker 1>uncover with the spygate and the improper and illegal spying,

0:39:28.719 --> 0:39:30.840
<v Speaker 1>and so they're trying to dirty him up ahead of

0:39:30.840 --> 0:39:34.200
<v Speaker 1>those findings coming out. And then I think number three,

0:39:34.400 --> 0:39:38.439
<v Speaker 1>they're still all angry that the Republican House held Eric

0:39:38.480 --> 0:39:43.520
<v Speaker 1>Holder in contempt for withholding Agency DJ documents on Fast

0:39:43.560 --> 0:39:45.120
<v Speaker 1>and Furious stuff. They had nothing to do with the

0:39:45.120 --> 0:39:47.480
<v Speaker 1>White House or executive privilege, and so they're trying to

0:39:47.480 --> 0:39:50.520
<v Speaker 1>get a little revenge here. But what they're not doing

0:39:50.600 --> 0:39:52.880
<v Speaker 1>is engaging in any sort of good phase back and

0:39:52.960 --> 0:39:55.760
<v Speaker 1>forth in order to get the information they say they want.

0:39:56.440 --> 0:39:58.640
<v Speaker 1>I mean, they went in about a span of a

0:39:58.719 --> 0:40:04.319
<v Speaker 1>week from saying that Bill Barr is a liar to

0:40:04.800 --> 0:40:07.759
<v Speaker 1>maybe somebody should go maybe maybe somebody should tell the

0:40:07.800 --> 0:40:10.040
<v Speaker 1>Sergeant at Arms and Congress to go arrest him if

0:40:10.040 --> 0:40:12.800
<v Speaker 1>he won't show up. I mean, this is just unhinged

0:40:12.840 --> 0:40:16.960
<v Speaker 1>stuff now. And what you're seeing is generally what happens

0:40:16.960 --> 0:40:22.440
<v Speaker 1>with a delusional person when the gravity of reality starts

0:40:22.520 --> 0:40:24.480
<v Speaker 1>to set in. Okay, so they got out on a

0:40:24.520 --> 0:40:27.760
<v Speaker 1>limb with this absurd Russian collusion theory for two years,

0:40:28.480 --> 0:40:30.600
<v Speaker 1>those of us with a brain and common sense and

0:40:30.680 --> 0:40:32.759
<v Speaker 1>the ability to follow basic facts kind of new from

0:40:32.800 --> 0:40:36.759
<v Speaker 1>the beginning there was nothing there there. So they're having

0:40:36.800 --> 0:40:40.480
<v Speaker 1>a really really difficult time grappling with the fact that

0:40:40.560 --> 0:40:42.920
<v Speaker 1>Saint Robert of Mueller came back and said, actually, there

0:40:43.000 --> 0:40:46.719
<v Speaker 1>was no collusion at all, and by the way, even

0:40:46.760 --> 0:40:49.440
<v Speaker 1>if there was obstruction, which we're not even sure there was,

0:40:49.520 --> 0:40:52.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm not charging him with it. So like to understand

0:40:52.640 --> 0:40:55.040
<v Speaker 1>their behavior and how unhinged it is, you have to

0:40:55.080 --> 0:40:59.479
<v Speaker 1>appreciate how badly they have been damaged by the fact

0:40:59.480 --> 0:41:02.080
<v Speaker 1>that there was your Russian collusion number one and number two,

0:41:02.520 --> 0:41:06.160
<v Speaker 1>that there was likely a whole lot of impropriety, both

0:41:06.200 --> 0:41:09.640
<v Speaker 1>from House Democrats like Adam Schiff who is legally leaking information,

0:41:09.960 --> 0:41:11.960
<v Speaker 1>as well as all of the shenanigans going on at

0:41:12.040 --> 0:41:15.799
<v Speaker 1>DJ and the FBI and probably even the CIA regarding

0:41:16.360 --> 0:41:18.719
<v Speaker 1>the spying against the Trump campaign. So they've got a

0:41:18.719 --> 0:41:20.960
<v Speaker 1>whole mess they're trying to get themselves out of. And

0:41:21.000 --> 0:41:24.200
<v Speaker 1>they've apparently decided that William Barr is going to be

0:41:24.239 --> 0:41:25.680
<v Speaker 1>the fall guy here and they're going to take out

0:41:25.680 --> 0:41:29.360
<v Speaker 1>all their anger on him. And they're making this claim

0:41:29.480 --> 0:41:33.400
<v Speaker 1>and we're speaking to Sean Davis from the Federalist Here Sean,

0:41:33.920 --> 0:41:37.200
<v Speaker 1>they're making this claim that they want the unredacted report

0:41:37.280 --> 0:41:40.080
<v Speaker 1>to be available to them. But my understanding is that

0:41:40.360 --> 0:41:46.760
<v Speaker 1>there are statutes, specifically statutes regarding grand jury information six

0:41:47.719 --> 0:41:52.920
<v Speaker 1>six E information that Congress is effectively asking the Department

0:41:52.920 --> 0:41:58.080
<v Speaker 1>of Justice to violate congressionally congressionally valid statute that absent

0:41:58.480 --> 0:42:02.600
<v Speaker 1>a court order, they would be violating. So Congress is

0:42:02.600 --> 0:42:04.919
<v Speaker 1>basically telling the Department of Justice to break the law

0:42:05.080 --> 0:42:07.040
<v Speaker 1>or else they're going to force the law against them.

0:42:08.040 --> 0:42:10.480
<v Speaker 1>You're exactly right. So there was a couple of different

0:42:10.480 --> 0:42:13.279
<v Speaker 1>categories of redacted information and what was made public by

0:42:13.320 --> 0:42:15.960
<v Speaker 1>Bar in the four hundred forty eight page Moll report.

0:42:16.480 --> 0:42:20.920
<v Speaker 1>There was classified information. I think there was ongoing matters

0:42:21.000 --> 0:42:25.440
<v Speaker 1>which was related to I think ongoing Roger Stone litigation

0:42:25.480 --> 0:42:29.360
<v Speaker 1>and litigation against the Russian hackers. There was some privacy

0:42:29.400 --> 0:42:32.520
<v Speaker 1>stuff in there, like you know, people mentioned who never

0:42:32.560 --> 0:42:34.880
<v Speaker 1>had any charges or anything against them. They were tertiary

0:42:34.960 --> 0:42:37.040
<v Speaker 1>characters and there's no need to drag their names through

0:42:37.040 --> 0:42:39.719
<v Speaker 1>the mud. And then there was grand jury information. Now

0:42:39.920 --> 0:42:42.359
<v Speaker 1>Bar has made available to Congress to a whole bunch

0:42:42.360 --> 0:42:44.400
<v Speaker 1>of people. I think the entire judiciary. Some of their

0:42:44.400 --> 0:42:47.160
<v Speaker 1>staffers said, hey, you can come look at every single

0:42:47.239 --> 0:42:50.880
<v Speaker 1>thing that's in that report. We've removed all the redactions

0:42:50.880 --> 0:42:54.680
<v Speaker 1>except the grand jury information, which under the federal rules

0:42:54.719 --> 0:42:57.279
<v Speaker 1>of Criminal Procedure I think rules sixty is why they

0:42:57.280 --> 0:43:01.880
<v Speaker 1>call it sixt information, we cannot law disclosed grand jury information.

0:43:03.000 --> 0:43:06.600
<v Speaker 1>And not only are Democrats demanding that grand jury information,

0:43:06.960 --> 0:43:09.799
<v Speaker 1>they haven't even gone over to DJ to see the

0:43:09.840 --> 0:43:12.319
<v Speaker 1>rest of those reactions that were removed. I mean, they've

0:43:12.320 --> 0:43:14.399
<v Speaker 1>been given like ninety eight percent of what they asked for,

0:43:14.680 --> 0:43:16.840
<v Speaker 1>and they've been given one hundred percent of what's allowable

0:43:16.920 --> 0:43:20.520
<v Speaker 1>on under law. And instead they've just decided they're going

0:43:20.560 --> 0:43:22.839
<v Speaker 1>to have this long drawn out temper tantrum so they

0:43:22.840 --> 0:43:24.839
<v Speaker 1>can make them feel self feel better about the fact

0:43:24.920 --> 0:43:27.800
<v Speaker 1>that there was no collusion. What are they really trying

0:43:27.840 --> 0:43:30.239
<v Speaker 1>to accomplish? You're like, what's the if you if you

0:43:30.320 --> 0:43:33.440
<v Speaker 1>were you know, behind enemy lines so to speak, in

0:43:34.000 --> 0:43:38.200
<v Speaker 1>the office of you know, Jerry Nadler and Nancy Pelosi

0:43:38.360 --> 0:43:42.600
<v Speaker 1>and all these different figures that are creating this ongoing

0:43:43.080 --> 0:43:48.200
<v Speaker 1>really seems obsessive news cycle around the Mulla Report, as

0:43:48.200 --> 0:43:51.600
<v Speaker 1>though we don't have a book length and a heavy

0:43:51.640 --> 0:43:54.680
<v Speaker 1>book at that report with all kinds of information everything,

0:43:54.680 --> 0:43:56.520
<v Speaker 1>and it was very oppositional to Trump. It was a

0:43:56.560 --> 0:43:59.840
<v Speaker 1>prosecutorial document, not a fair minded document, not supposed to

0:43:59.840 --> 0:44:03.279
<v Speaker 1>take both sides. What do you think their game plan?

0:44:03.360 --> 0:44:05.360
<v Speaker 1>What are the Democrats trying to get out of this?

0:44:06.440 --> 0:44:08.640
<v Speaker 1>Is there a smart strategy at work here from their

0:44:08.640 --> 0:44:11.759
<v Speaker 1>side or are they just a little crazy? Is this

0:44:11.880 --> 0:44:15.560
<v Speaker 1>just a symptom of Trump having broken them in some way?

0:44:16.680 --> 0:44:19.640
<v Speaker 1>I think it's probably a little bit of both. So again,

0:44:19.680 --> 0:44:21.720
<v Speaker 1>they're reeling from the fact that there was no collusion

0:44:21.760 --> 0:44:23.719
<v Speaker 1>and they had really penned all their hopes on that

0:44:24.160 --> 0:44:25.800
<v Speaker 1>they'd hoped they were going to be able to impeach

0:44:25.880 --> 0:44:28.000
<v Speaker 1>him for either being a treason this Russian Asian or

0:44:28.040 --> 0:44:32.200
<v Speaker 1>having a structured justice violating total law, and they didn't

0:44:32.200 --> 0:44:34.600
<v Speaker 1>get either of those. So they have a ravenous base,

0:44:35.200 --> 0:44:39.000
<v Speaker 1>which has been told by both the members of Congress,

0:44:39.040 --> 0:44:42.120
<v Speaker 1>Democrat lawmakers and their friends and media for years that

0:44:42.160 --> 0:44:44.960
<v Speaker 1>Trump was a trees in Russian Asian and they're out

0:44:45.000 --> 0:44:49.440
<v Speaker 1>for blood. And so they've got this issue where apparently

0:44:49.600 --> 0:44:52.320
<v Speaker 1>for the moment, they've decided they're not going to impeach Trump.

0:44:53.160 --> 0:44:56.160
<v Speaker 1>We'll see how long that lasts. And so you have

0:44:56.239 --> 0:44:59.560
<v Speaker 1>this base that's just frothing just once Trump's head on

0:44:59.600 --> 0:45:02.279
<v Speaker 1>a pipe and they're told there's going to be no impeachment.

0:45:02.640 --> 0:45:04.320
<v Speaker 1>So I think a lot of this is some space

0:45:04.360 --> 0:45:07.319
<v Speaker 1>saving from Democrats trying to show that they really are

0:45:07.440 --> 0:45:09.600
<v Speaker 1>tough and they really are going to get a pound

0:45:09.600 --> 0:45:12.520
<v Speaker 1>of flesh out of the Trump administration, and so they're

0:45:12.520 --> 0:45:14.439
<v Speaker 1>going to try and go to whatever links they can,

0:45:15.040 --> 0:45:17.640
<v Speaker 1>probably short of impeachment unless they talk themselves into that,

0:45:17.880 --> 0:45:19.840
<v Speaker 1>to show how big and tough they are. So I

0:45:19.840 --> 0:45:21.920
<v Speaker 1>think that's the first part, and then the second is

0:45:22.640 --> 0:45:26.240
<v Speaker 1>I do think they are legitimately worried about what Bars

0:45:26.480 --> 0:45:30.799
<v Speaker 1>and the Inspector General DJ's report on improper spying is

0:45:30.840 --> 0:45:33.480
<v Speaker 1>going to show. And the best way they can blunt

0:45:33.520 --> 0:45:36.600
<v Speaker 1>that because they obviously can't deal with facts and realities

0:45:36.640 --> 0:45:39.279
<v Speaker 1>we've seem from the collusion narrative, but the best way

0:45:39.280 --> 0:45:42.399
<v Speaker 1>they can deal with the bar spygate report coming out

0:45:42.800 --> 0:45:46.279
<v Speaker 1>is to just destroy the messenger. Attack the messenger before

0:45:46.280 --> 0:45:49.120
<v Speaker 1>it does, so hopefully when it comes out they can say, oh,

0:45:49.160 --> 0:45:53.880
<v Speaker 1>you can safely ignore this, this corrupt, lying, contemptible A

0:45:54.000 --> 0:45:56.239
<v Speaker 1>Jorney general was behind it, and you don't need to

0:45:56.280 --> 0:45:58.440
<v Speaker 1>pay attention to anything he says. So I think it's

0:45:58.480 --> 0:46:00.960
<v Speaker 1>a little bit of base pleasing, a little bit of crazy,

0:46:01.320 --> 0:46:04.400
<v Speaker 1>and a little bit of defensive preparation for the Spygate

0:46:04.440 --> 0:46:07.799
<v Speaker 1>reports that are going to come out. Co sign that

0:46:07.840 --> 0:46:10.759
<v Speaker 1>sounds about right to me, Sean Davis. Everybody check out

0:46:10.800 --> 0:46:13.360
<v Speaker 1>his latest at the Federalist dot Com. Also follow him

0:46:13.600 --> 0:46:16.680
<v Speaker 1>for the wreckage of liberals that he leaves behind in

0:46:16.840 --> 0:46:21.319
<v Speaker 1>the digital space. Sean Davis on Twitter, He's check him

0:46:21.320 --> 0:46:23.160
<v Speaker 1>out there, and Sean, thanks for all your work and

0:46:23.360 --> 0:46:26.040
<v Speaker 1>good to talk to you as always, same here, Buck,

0:46:26.040 --> 0:46:29.040
<v Speaker 1>It's always a pleasure. Thank you for having me see him.

0:46:29.080 --> 0:46:31.040
<v Speaker 1>We live in the age of the Kardashians, and the

0:46:31.040 --> 0:46:33.359
<v Speaker 1>New York Times has managed to descend to that level.

0:46:34.400 --> 0:46:37.560
<v Speaker 1>The fact is less we clear Donald Trump is rich

0:46:37.719 --> 0:46:40.360
<v Speaker 1>and this is not a shock. Apparently he was clever

0:46:40.800 --> 0:46:43.600
<v Speaker 1>about what he was able to do with the tax code,

0:46:43.880 --> 0:46:47.439
<v Speaker 1>and in fact, the other taxpayers helped make him rich

0:46:48.040 --> 0:46:50.120
<v Speaker 1>because he did legally what he was allowed to do.

0:46:50.320 --> 0:46:53.560
<v Speaker 1>I would love to see the Salzburger family release all

0:46:53.600 --> 0:46:56.839
<v Speaker 1>of their records, show us all the different tax advantages

0:46:57.120 --> 0:46:59.920
<v Speaker 1>that their companies have taken over the years. How did

0:46:59.880 --> 0:47:02.720
<v Speaker 1>they do it? For example, when they sold the Boston Globe.

0:47:03.760 --> 0:47:07.600
<v Speaker 1>I think that this kind of one sided, dishonest attack

0:47:08.200 --> 0:47:11.240
<v Speaker 1>is part of what is sickening American politics and making

0:47:11.239 --> 0:47:15.240
<v Speaker 1>it harder to get decent people to write. I think

0:47:15.239 --> 0:47:19.600
<v Speaker 1>Newt's stepping onto a pretty important, pretty important ground here

0:47:19.600 --> 0:47:22.480
<v Speaker 1>with this new to loot. We gotta have new back

0:47:22.480 --> 0:47:23.800
<v Speaker 1>on the show. It's been a while I having a

0:47:23.840 --> 0:47:27.080
<v Speaker 1>nude on, like maybe a year or two now, Pruiser, Mike,

0:47:27.160 --> 0:47:28.719
<v Speaker 1>let's make a no, let's get let's get nude on.

0:47:28.760 --> 0:47:30.480
<v Speaker 1>I like new He was actually here the other day.

0:47:30.719 --> 0:47:32.319
<v Speaker 1>I'm talking to his people. They didn't know this, but

0:47:32.320 --> 0:47:34.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm already talking to him. Let's see you look at that, dude.

0:47:34.800 --> 0:47:36.960
<v Speaker 1>We're Mike. We we have like a mind meld here,

0:47:37.000 --> 0:47:38.920
<v Speaker 1>my friend. You know, from from New York to DC.

0:47:39.120 --> 0:47:40.920
<v Speaker 1>You can't even It's like it's like we're sitting next

0:47:40.960 --> 0:47:44.440
<v Speaker 1>to each other. Um No, it's He's one of the

0:47:44.560 --> 0:47:47.400
<v Speaker 1>voices in the in our current moment. I mean, I

0:47:47.400 --> 0:47:50.959
<v Speaker 1>think new Victor, Davis Hansen, these are really important perspectives

0:47:51.000 --> 0:47:56.400
<v Speaker 1>on all things Trump. They bring a degree of wisdom

0:47:56.400 --> 0:47:59.080
<v Speaker 1>and knowledge to the Trump movement that I think is

0:47:59.719 --> 0:48:03.680
<v Speaker 1>really useful, really helpful. But on the Trump tax issue

0:48:05.160 --> 0:48:09.680
<v Speaker 1>there is this is another manifestation of Trump's arrangement syndrome.

0:48:10.360 --> 0:48:13.760
<v Speaker 1>Today you had all these journalists trying to hyperventilate over

0:48:14.400 --> 0:48:18.200
<v Speaker 1>Trump's tax returns, which I suppose this was just leaked

0:48:18.760 --> 0:48:22.080
<v Speaker 1>from someone somewhere in New York State, his tax returns

0:48:22.120 --> 0:48:25.759
<v Speaker 1>from nineteen eighty five to eighty six, I think, and

0:48:25.880 --> 0:48:30.880
<v Speaker 1>it showed that he took losses, I think, the biggest

0:48:30.880 --> 0:48:33.960
<v Speaker 1>losses of any taxpayer in the country. And it showed

0:48:34.000 --> 0:48:36.720
<v Speaker 1>that he took loss carried forward, which is a one

0:48:36.800 --> 0:48:41.719
<v Speaker 1>hundred percent legal acceptable in the tax code thing to do.

0:48:41.880 --> 0:48:44.440
<v Speaker 1>Now you can argue with whether or not you think

0:48:44.480 --> 0:48:46.440
<v Speaker 1>that that should be the case in the tax code

0:48:46.760 --> 0:48:50.000
<v Speaker 1>or not. I would note that, you know, if you

0:48:50.080 --> 0:48:51.880
<v Speaker 1>want people to take risks and if you want to

0:48:51.920 --> 0:48:54.839
<v Speaker 1>spur investment, you probably don't want them to Also, after

0:48:54.880 --> 0:48:56.879
<v Speaker 1>they've lost a ton of money, gets socked with really

0:48:56.920 --> 0:49:01.719
<v Speaker 1>high taxes on whatever money they have. But newt here

0:49:01.920 --> 0:49:05.760
<v Speaker 1>is is also pointing out that you know, other people

0:49:05.760 --> 0:49:09.680
<v Speaker 1>would not be able to handle this kind of assault.

0:49:09.719 --> 0:49:12.080
<v Speaker 1>I mean, there are so many individuals where if you

0:49:12.600 --> 0:49:16.200
<v Speaker 1>went after their taxes back now we're talking, went back

0:49:16.520 --> 0:49:20.560
<v Speaker 1>there almost thirty years. You know, this is what they'll

0:49:20.680 --> 0:49:23.520
<v Speaker 1>They could not get the mainstream media could not and

0:49:23.600 --> 0:49:27.279
<v Speaker 1>would not get Barack Obama's college records. I'm sure you know,

0:49:27.280 --> 0:49:28.879
<v Speaker 1>they could have sued, they could have gone to court,

0:49:28.880 --> 0:49:31.680
<v Speaker 1>they could have on something. They didn't even want them.

0:49:32.719 --> 0:49:35.840
<v Speaker 1>They even want them. We've still never seen Barack Obama's

0:49:35.920 --> 0:49:38.560
<v Speaker 1>SAT scores, We've never seen his grades. You would say, Barkwell,

0:49:38.600 --> 0:49:41.000
<v Speaker 1>who cares. Oh, we cared about John Kerry's. We cared

0:49:41.000 --> 0:49:43.279
<v Speaker 1>about George W. Bush's, we cared about you know, but

0:49:43.520 --> 0:49:47.279
<v Speaker 1>what taxes? Now, this is how sacro sanct Oh, we

0:49:47.360 --> 0:49:49.719
<v Speaker 1>must see the person's side, not just the last ten years.

0:49:49.719 --> 0:49:52.240
<v Speaker 1>We're supposed to see them now, back into the eighties apparently,

0:49:53.960 --> 0:49:56.319
<v Speaker 1>you know, and I'm reminded of how they went after

0:49:56.400 --> 0:50:00.480
<v Speaker 1>Romney on the tax issue. Romney, who I mean, talk

0:50:00.520 --> 0:50:05.720
<v Speaker 1>about a guy who is just the most squared away.

0:50:05.960 --> 0:50:08.960
<v Speaker 1>You know, he's the guy that you feel like he

0:50:09.120 --> 0:50:11.439
<v Speaker 1>probably pays more than he shoot in taxes just because

0:50:11.480 --> 0:50:13.440
<v Speaker 1>he doesn't want to stiff Uncle Sam. You know, he's

0:50:13.480 --> 0:50:17.040
<v Speaker 1>a very spit and polish by the book, by the

0:50:17.120 --> 0:50:21.759
<v Speaker 1>rules individual and Harry Reid very famously, you recall, went

0:50:21.800 --> 0:50:23.480
<v Speaker 1>on the floor of the Senate and said, mitt Romney

0:50:23.480 --> 0:50:25.600
<v Speaker 1>hasn't paid taxes in ten years. Now, you may say, buck,

0:50:25.960 --> 0:50:29.799
<v Speaker 1>a lot of people knew that that wasn't true, but

0:50:30.680 --> 0:50:34.000
<v Speaker 1>plenty of people probably didn't know that, and it was

0:50:34.320 --> 0:50:36.680
<v Speaker 1>a real smear. And Harry Read later kind of chuckled

0:50:36.680 --> 0:50:38.640
<v Speaker 1>about how Romney didn't win, and so who cares that

0:50:38.680 --> 0:50:40.719
<v Speaker 1>he lied about? It was just a lie. It was

0:50:40.800 --> 0:50:44.359
<v Speaker 1>just a lie. It was just defamation done from the

0:50:44.400 --> 0:50:47.000
<v Speaker 1>sanctity of the Senate floor though, so there you can't

0:50:47.040 --> 0:50:48.799
<v Speaker 1>bring any kind of legal challenge to it. There's no

0:50:48.840 --> 0:50:51.319
<v Speaker 1>defamation from the Senate floor. That's just an exemption for it.

0:50:52.040 --> 0:50:54.680
<v Speaker 1>So he was able to do that. And I'm just

0:50:54.719 --> 0:50:57.600
<v Speaker 1>reminded of how you know this is. This is why

0:50:57.880 --> 0:51:01.160
<v Speaker 1>so many, so many people who saw Trump early on

0:51:01.480 --> 0:51:05.040
<v Speaker 1>as an important political phenomenon and really as the start

0:51:05.040 --> 0:51:08.200
<v Speaker 1>of a political movement. We need somebody who can withstand

0:51:08.239 --> 0:51:11.480
<v Speaker 1>all this stuff. Romney couldn't take the heat, or at

0:51:11.520 --> 0:51:13.799
<v Speaker 1>least maybe Romney could handle the heat, but didn't know

0:51:13.800 --> 0:51:17.040
<v Speaker 1>how to fight back effectively. And if you if you lose,

0:51:17.239 --> 0:51:19.880
<v Speaker 1>you still lose. You know, even if you lose gracefully.

0:51:19.960 --> 0:51:23.440
<v Speaker 1>That has been the mantra for Republicans stretching back for

0:51:23.440 --> 0:51:27.280
<v Speaker 1>a long time. Well you lose, but lose gracefully. And

0:51:27.360 --> 0:51:29.520
<v Speaker 1>you know, we eked out a win against al Gore

0:51:29.560 --> 0:51:33.400
<v Speaker 1>in two thousand against al Gore, folks, guy's a clown,

0:51:33.640 --> 0:51:38.719
<v Speaker 1>guy's a joke, and barely we're able to defeat al Gore.

0:51:38.760 --> 0:51:41.280
<v Speaker 1>I mean, this is remarkable stuff when you think about

0:51:41.800 --> 0:51:43.880
<v Speaker 1>who the Democrats have put forward, and then we you know,

0:51:43.920 --> 0:51:47.800
<v Speaker 1>we finally Trump comes along and ends the Clinton dynasty

0:51:47.840 --> 0:51:51.160
<v Speaker 1>at least for the foreseeable future. But they're going after

0:51:51.200 --> 0:51:54.040
<v Speaker 1>him on this tax thing, acting like it's a big story.

0:51:54.120 --> 0:51:57.560
<v Speaker 1>None of this is new, None of this really is

0:51:57.560 --> 0:52:02.280
<v Speaker 1>is information that is gonna change anything. But they're fixated

0:52:02.320 --> 0:52:05.640
<v Speaker 1>on this. They are fixated. You know, the media does

0:52:05.719 --> 0:52:08.239
<v Speaker 1>have an obsession. Of the obsession is to find the

0:52:08.320 --> 0:52:13.160
<v Speaker 1>thing that will end Trump. Whatever that thing is. They've tried.

0:52:13.280 --> 0:52:15.279
<v Speaker 1>They thought it was campaign finance, they thought it was

0:52:15.320 --> 0:52:17.760
<v Speaker 1>porn star payoff, they thought it was the Russia collusion,

0:52:17.800 --> 0:52:20.480
<v Speaker 1>They thought it was his dealings with the Trump Tower

0:52:20.520 --> 0:52:23.200
<v Speaker 1>Moscow that they keep going through all these different iterations

0:52:23.239 --> 0:52:29.120
<v Speaker 1>of ending the Trump presidency, and this is an extension

0:52:29.280 --> 0:52:32.239
<v Speaker 1>of the mass psychosis that they have. It really is

0:52:33.440 --> 0:52:36.719
<v Speaker 1>speaking about taxes, though, I gotta say, I'm I don't

0:52:36.719 --> 0:52:38.319
<v Speaker 1>know how much longer I'm gonna be able to last

0:52:38.320 --> 0:52:40.560
<v Speaker 1>in a blue in any blue state, whether it's DC

0:52:40.800 --> 0:52:43.719
<v Speaker 1>or New York or his tax stuff is just out

0:52:43.719 --> 0:52:46.440
<v Speaker 1>of control. And I talked to friends of mine, particularly

0:52:46.480 --> 0:52:48.200
<v Speaker 1>friends that have moved to Florida in the last couple

0:52:48.239 --> 0:52:53.240
<v Speaker 1>of years, and you've got some nice red parts of Florida, lovely,

0:52:53.360 --> 0:53:00.239
<v Speaker 1>lovely beaches, and way better tax treatment. Governor Chris new

0:53:00.320 --> 0:53:03.760
<v Speaker 1>New had some interesting comments to make about these blue

0:53:03.800 --> 0:53:06.080
<v Speaker 1>states and what's facing them in the tax situation. Play

0:53:06.080 --> 0:53:09.200
<v Speaker 1>clip one. What you're do in Connecticut, I'd actually make

0:53:09.239 --> 0:53:12.239
<v Speaker 1>them manage The problem with places like New York and

0:53:12.280 --> 0:53:15.399
<v Speaker 1>Connecticut and California is they don't manage themselves. They don't

0:53:15.400 --> 0:53:17.880
<v Speaker 1>put themselves in a position to be successful because they

0:53:17.960 --> 0:53:20.360
<v Speaker 1>worried more about the politics and less about what actually

0:53:20.360 --> 0:53:24.120
<v Speaker 1>gets you know, better results. When businesses screened to the

0:53:24.120 --> 0:53:26.719
<v Speaker 1>state of Connecticut, you need to get taxes, stop abusing us,

0:53:26.760 --> 0:53:28.800
<v Speaker 1>or we're walking away. And then they did walk away

0:53:28.840 --> 0:53:33.400
<v Speaker 1>and What was Connecticut's response. Nothing, it's insulting, so businesses saying,

0:53:33.600 --> 0:53:35.640
<v Speaker 1>you know, we want to work with a government. We

0:53:35.680 --> 0:53:38.279
<v Speaker 1>want to work with communities and administrations that actually listen

0:53:38.320 --> 0:53:44.400
<v Speaker 1>to us. That's what New Hampshire does, Tennessee, Texas, Nevada, Utah, Idaho.

0:53:44.560 --> 0:53:46.800
<v Speaker 1>These are the states that I'm competing with to get business.

0:53:46.840 --> 0:53:50.840
<v Speaker 1>It truly is an international market. There are the states

0:53:50.840 --> 0:53:53.000
<v Speaker 1>that are well run and have decent tax climate and

0:53:53.040 --> 0:53:56.160
<v Speaker 1>states that are losing people because they don't. And I

0:53:56.200 --> 0:53:58.600
<v Speaker 1>got to tell you, I think that these a lot

0:53:58.600 --> 0:54:00.680
<v Speaker 1>of these blue states are kind of coasting on legacy

0:54:00.760 --> 0:54:03.480
<v Speaker 1>and the wealth accumulation that they've had in the past,

0:54:03.560 --> 0:54:05.520
<v Speaker 1>and the infrastructure that was put in place a long

0:54:05.520 --> 0:54:08.759
<v Speaker 1>time ago, particularly the private sector infrastructure, meaning of the

0:54:08.840 --> 0:54:12.799
<v Speaker 1>jobs and the companies that are there. I think you're

0:54:12.840 --> 0:54:17.600
<v Speaker 1>going to see continued flight from New York, California, Connecticut.

0:54:18.040 --> 0:54:20.120
<v Speaker 1>There are just other places better, Especially if you're a

0:54:20.160 --> 0:54:22.200
<v Speaker 1>young guy or galen. You think about starting a family,

0:54:22.920 --> 0:54:24.919
<v Speaker 1>it's too tough to make it work in these blue states.

0:54:24.920 --> 0:54:29.279
<v Speaker 1>They're too dysfunctional, the taxes are too darn high. It's

0:54:29.280 --> 0:54:33.040
<v Speaker 1>also important that we stopped seeing religion use as a

0:54:33.120 --> 0:54:36.800
<v Speaker 1>kind of cudgel, as if God belonged to a political party,

0:54:37.200 --> 0:54:39.160
<v Speaker 1>and if he did, I can't imagine it would be

0:54:39.160 --> 0:54:41.680
<v Speaker 1>the one that sent the current president into the White House.

0:54:42.200 --> 0:54:45.120
<v Speaker 1>Don't you love that Democrat tactic? That's Mayor Pete, who's

0:54:45.120 --> 0:54:51.480
<v Speaker 1>supposed to be so areudite, so sophisticated, gold plated resume

0:54:51.600 --> 0:54:55.080
<v Speaker 1>above the fray they say about Mayor Pete, he says

0:54:55.120 --> 0:54:57.520
<v Speaker 1>we should stop using religion as a cudgel. So let

0:54:57.520 --> 0:55:00.600
<v Speaker 1>me use religion as a cudgel here, let me use religions.

0:55:00.880 --> 0:55:03.640
<v Speaker 1>Let's just not do that thing we're doing. But I'm

0:55:03.680 --> 0:55:05.400
<v Speaker 1>gonna do it one more time when I'm asking you

0:55:05.440 --> 0:55:08.920
<v Speaker 1>not to do it. If he did, he would hate

0:55:09.360 --> 0:55:12.000
<v Speaker 1>If God belonged to a political party, he would hate Republicans.

0:55:12.120 --> 0:55:14.719
<v Speaker 1>I think that that's given that the Democratic Party is

0:55:14.760 --> 0:55:18.239
<v Speaker 1>the party of death on demand with abortion, that right

0:55:18.520 --> 0:55:21.160
<v Speaker 1>right there, right then, and there falls apart from me.

0:55:21.640 --> 0:55:24.080
<v Speaker 1>I don't think that that's a serious argument that can

0:55:24.800 --> 0:55:30.360
<v Speaker 1>be made. I don't think that that's a serious a

0:55:30.440 --> 0:55:33.520
<v Speaker 1>serious case. And I think what's so fascinating here is

0:55:33.520 --> 0:55:35.640
<v Speaker 1>that the Democrats have done a bit of rewriting of history,

0:55:35.680 --> 0:55:37.920
<v Speaker 1>and you're going to see this from Mayor Pete, where

0:55:38.560 --> 0:55:41.680
<v Speaker 1>gay marriage is now viewed as something that the Democratic

0:55:41.719 --> 0:55:46.520
<v Speaker 1>Party was all four and that they they were the

0:55:46.520 --> 0:55:48.879
<v Speaker 1>ones that, you know, had this big breakthrough of how

0:55:48.920 --> 0:55:51.200
<v Speaker 1>gay marriage should be the law of the land, when

0:55:51.320 --> 0:55:54.240
<v Speaker 1>in reality, Barack Obama ran as a traditional marriage candidate.

0:55:54.239 --> 0:55:57.720
<v Speaker 1>This just gets completely wiped out of the history. Barack

0:55:57.760 --> 0:56:01.719
<v Speaker 1>Obama ran in favor of additional marriage, and then, in

0:56:01.719 --> 0:56:03.960
<v Speaker 1>a classic Democrat move, was like, yeah, I just did

0:56:03.960 --> 0:56:07.480
<v Speaker 1>that to fool those fool those rubes who go to

0:56:07.600 --> 0:56:09.719
<v Speaker 1>church in the Bible Belt, you know, enough of them

0:56:09.760 --> 0:56:11.759
<v Speaker 1>that they would vote for me. I didn't really mean it.

0:56:11.840 --> 0:56:15.560
<v Speaker 1>I wasn't really serious about it. We had our discussion

0:56:15.600 --> 0:56:18.920
<v Speaker 1>about Democrat takeia earlier in the week. If they lie

0:56:19.880 --> 0:56:23.760
<v Speaker 1>and it is a lie that benefits the Democrat Party,

0:56:23.840 --> 0:56:26.799
<v Speaker 1>then it's okay. Then it's not something that we should

0:56:26.680 --> 0:56:29.000
<v Speaker 1>that they will look down upon. They think that that's fine.

0:56:30.160 --> 0:56:34.320
<v Speaker 1>We are going to have a very interesting Democrat primary

0:56:34.400 --> 0:56:39.000
<v Speaker 1>going forward here, because you're going to see efforts to

0:56:39.080 --> 0:56:42.160
<v Speaker 1>try to win over white working class voters, many of

0:56:42.160 --> 0:56:45.880
<v Speaker 1>whom are are Christian and at least somewhat church going,

0:56:46.680 --> 0:56:49.120
<v Speaker 1>and you've got a political party with the Democrats that

0:56:49.200 --> 0:56:53.799
<v Speaker 1>not just abortion on demand, but thinks that the distinctions

0:56:53.800 --> 0:56:57.440
<v Speaker 1>between male and female don't make any difference anymore, or

0:56:57.440 --> 0:56:59.919
<v Speaker 1>at least they're willing to erase those distinctions on a whim.

0:57:00.719 --> 0:57:05.760
<v Speaker 1>Believe that the transgender movement is the new civil rights movement.

0:57:05.840 --> 0:57:09.799
<v Speaker 1>Believe that it is in fact offensive to say things

0:57:09.880 --> 0:57:13.640
<v Speaker 1>like men cannot get their periods or women are not

0:57:13.640 --> 0:57:15.319
<v Speaker 1>the only ones who get periods. I can't even keep

0:57:15.360 --> 0:57:20.160
<v Speaker 1>up with the lunacy here, the anti scientific, non scientific

0:57:20.240 --> 0:57:22.240
<v Speaker 1>lunacy of the left. And they're going to try to

0:57:22.280 --> 0:57:26.360
<v Speaker 1>appeal to people who, at least in some states, in

0:57:26.360 --> 0:57:31.919
<v Speaker 1>some places have a more traditional view of society and

0:57:32.440 --> 0:57:36.800
<v Speaker 1>morality and just American public life. And the Democratic Party

0:57:37.080 --> 0:57:40.440
<v Speaker 1>is an increasingly radical party. They have not tacked toward

0:57:40.560 --> 0:57:43.640
<v Speaker 1>the center. They are not taking a more centrist approach

0:57:43.680 --> 0:57:47.680
<v Speaker 1>at all, even though right now it seems to me

0:57:47.760 --> 0:57:51.160
<v Speaker 1>that they are all in on Biden, which I gotta

0:57:51.240 --> 0:57:54.840
<v Speaker 1>tell you, you know, maybe I'm out on a limb

0:57:54.840 --> 0:57:57.640
<v Speaker 1>here because I've been saying this all along. I do

0:57:57.760 --> 0:58:03.680
<v Speaker 1>not understand how anybody could think that this guy is

0:58:03.720 --> 0:58:07.160
<v Speaker 1>really a serious contender. And I really appreciated this today,

0:58:07.160 --> 0:58:10.240
<v Speaker 1>I saw none other than Ronald Reagan himself. Folks, you know,

0:58:10.240 --> 0:58:12.560
<v Speaker 1>if you don't want to take my word for it,

0:58:13.200 --> 0:58:17.840
<v Speaker 1>here's what Ronald Reagan said back in trying to make

0:58:17.840 --> 0:58:20.120
<v Speaker 1>sure I have this one set up the campaign to

0:58:20.720 --> 0:58:25.760
<v Speaker 1>This is from the Campaign to Succeed Reagan and Biden

0:58:25.840 --> 0:58:28.080
<v Speaker 1>launched his bid for the presidency. This is from National

0:58:28.120 --> 0:58:35.080
<v Speaker 1>Review Today in June of nineteen eighty six. And here

0:58:35.200 --> 0:58:40.120
<v Speaker 1>is what Reagan said about about Biden first meeting with

0:58:40.240 --> 0:58:43.200
<v Speaker 1>Ken d and the VP Howard Lake. Getting back from Tennessee,

0:58:43.320 --> 0:58:45.160
<v Speaker 1>Reagan wrote on June fifteenth, this is what he wrote

0:58:45.160 --> 0:58:49.240
<v Speaker 1>about him. Some talk about Senator Biden, now candidate for president.

0:58:49.840 --> 0:58:52.400
<v Speaker 1>I saw him on CNN last night speaking to John F.

0:58:52.480 --> 0:58:56.720
<v Speaker 1>Kennedy School at Harvard. He's smooth but a pure demagogue,

0:58:57.120 --> 0:59:01.840
<v Speaker 1>out to save America from the Reagan doctrine. Ooom, smooth

0:59:02.280 --> 0:59:06.720
<v Speaker 1>but a pure demagogue. A perfect, perfect description of Joe

0:59:06.760 --> 0:59:10.480
<v Speaker 1>Biden from Rob Reagan himself. And who has been I'm

0:59:10.520 --> 0:59:11.880
<v Speaker 1>the one who's been telling you all week. I didn't

0:59:11.880 --> 0:59:14.800
<v Speaker 1>even know about this Reagan quote until today that Biden

0:59:14.920 --> 0:59:18.320
<v Speaker 1>is the quintessential say whatever he has to say at

0:59:18.360 --> 0:59:22.480
<v Speaker 1>any point in time politician, no big ideas, no big thoughts,

0:59:22.880 --> 0:59:27.000
<v Speaker 1>no core of belief or purpose other than the greater

0:59:27.040 --> 0:59:30.360
<v Speaker 1>glory of Joe Biden. And say what you will about

0:59:30.400 --> 0:59:32.040
<v Speaker 1>some of the and I will say a lot about them.

0:59:32.040 --> 0:59:34.280
<v Speaker 1>A lot of these Democrats who are running right now

0:59:34.880 --> 0:59:37.520
<v Speaker 1>for the nomination. I do think there are some true

0:59:37.560 --> 0:59:40.720
<v Speaker 1>believers among them. I think Bernie Sanders is a true believer. Unfortunately,

0:59:40.760 --> 0:59:43.720
<v Speaker 1>he's a true believer. And Communism, baby, it's coming back,

0:59:43.840 --> 0:59:46.760
<v Speaker 1>make it a comeback. I do think he's a true believer. Though.

0:59:46.920 --> 0:59:49.720
<v Speaker 1>I think that Elizabeth Warren, as much as she is

0:59:49.720 --> 0:59:52.680
<v Speaker 1>a phony, she's such a phony that she's even convinced

0:59:52.680 --> 0:59:56.560
<v Speaker 1>her she believes some of her own bs. I think

0:59:56.600 --> 0:59:59.720
<v Speaker 1>that she believes it. I think that I think Andrew

1:00:00.040 --> 1:00:02.640
<v Speaker 1>Yang he's a true believer, although I don't find him

1:00:03.440 --> 1:00:05.280
<v Speaker 1>bothers him like I do some of these other candidates.

1:00:05.280 --> 1:00:06.760
<v Speaker 1>I think he's an interest. I think he's wrong on

1:00:06.800 --> 1:00:09.200
<v Speaker 1>some stuff, but he's earnest and he's You're like, who's

1:00:09.200 --> 1:00:11.680
<v Speaker 1>Andrew Yang. I think he's at maybe one percent of

1:00:11.680 --> 1:00:14.160
<v Speaker 1>the vote or something. But he has ideas. He's an

1:00:14.160 --> 1:00:16.560
<v Speaker 1>ideas guy, and he'll talk about his ideas. I give Yang.

1:00:16.680 --> 1:00:19.840
<v Speaker 1>I give Yang credit, and I Ernie Clinton interrupt you here, Buck,

1:00:19.840 --> 1:00:24.320
<v Speaker 1>did you hear Yang's policy or ideas on paying politicians? No,

1:00:24.440 --> 1:00:25.600
<v Speaker 1>what do you say? I thought it was really interesting

1:00:25.640 --> 1:00:28.360
<v Speaker 1>I read about last week. He talked about the salaries

1:00:28.400 --> 1:00:32.280
<v Speaker 1>of the president and our congressman and senators, how they

1:00:32.360 --> 1:00:35.439
<v Speaker 1>need to be greatly increased. If we paid them way more,

1:00:35.800 --> 1:00:39.280
<v Speaker 1>then they'd be less likely to be reliant on um,

1:00:39.600 --> 1:00:42.920
<v Speaker 1>you know, on payoffs and bribes and all that kind

1:00:42.920 --> 1:00:44.080
<v Speaker 1>of stuff that you know that they give me too.

1:00:44.160 --> 1:00:45.640
<v Speaker 1>I mean, we can debate, we can debate what the

1:00:45.680 --> 1:00:47.880
<v Speaker 1>lobbyist is. What I was trying to say, it's an idea.

1:00:48.080 --> 1:00:50.840
<v Speaker 1>It's a real idea of folks. So you know, Yang's

1:00:50.880 --> 1:00:53.880
<v Speaker 1>got some real ideas. But but Biden, as Reagan said,

1:00:54.440 --> 1:00:58.600
<v Speaker 1>pure demagogue. Perfect description. Received a lot of feedback about

1:00:58.600 --> 1:01:00.440
<v Speaker 1>a video I posted last week, and I want to

1:01:00.440 --> 1:01:03.680
<v Speaker 1>provide some background. You see, I've lived across the street

1:01:03.760 --> 1:01:06.280
<v Speaker 1>or next door to this particular plant parenthood, one of

1:01:06.320 --> 1:01:09.440
<v Speaker 1>the most heavily protested plant parenthoods in America. For the

1:01:09.480 --> 1:01:12.840
<v Speaker 1>last fifteen years. I've seen men and women and teens

1:01:12.880 --> 1:01:15.600
<v Speaker 1>try to go there for routine healthcare for checkups for

1:01:15.680 --> 1:01:19.000
<v Speaker 1>PAP schmeres, for breast exams, for STD screenings, and yes,

1:01:19.040 --> 1:01:23.280
<v Speaker 1>for abortions. I have seen firsthand the insults, the slurs,

1:01:23.360 --> 1:01:26.400
<v Speaker 1>the attacks, and the racism that those protesters aim at,

1:01:26.400 --> 1:01:29.000
<v Speaker 1>mostly young girls going there for clinical care. As an

1:01:29.040 --> 1:01:33.280
<v Speaker 1>activist and an advocate, I know why pushing back against

1:01:33.320 --> 1:01:36.840
<v Speaker 1>harassment and discrimination or an must even when they're uncomfortable.

1:01:36.920 --> 1:01:40.600
<v Speaker 1>But last week I wasn't a patient escort. I was

1:01:40.640 --> 1:01:43.960
<v Speaker 1>a neighbor and a concerned citizen, and I was aggressive.

1:01:45.400 --> 1:01:51.920
<v Speaker 1>And you're a jerk, Brian Simms, You're scummy. Apology not accepted,

1:01:51.920 --> 1:01:54.480
<v Speaker 1>at least not by me, feeling not by any of

1:01:54.480 --> 1:01:59.160
<v Speaker 1>you either. You will recall that Representative Simms from the

1:01:59.280 --> 1:02:03.160
<v Speaker 1>Great State of Sylvania achieved quite a bit of notoriety

1:02:03.240 --> 1:02:09.120
<v Speaker 1>earlier this week when he really viciously harassed and harangued

1:02:09.520 --> 1:02:12.000
<v Speaker 1>an elderly woman who was standing outside of a planned

1:02:12.000 --> 1:02:16.760
<v Speaker 1>parenthood clinic in Philadelphia praying, and then did the same

1:02:16.760 --> 1:02:21.040
<v Speaker 1>thing to a couple of teenage girls, videotaping them, trying

1:02:21.040 --> 1:02:24.560
<v Speaker 1>to humiliate them, and really doing all of this in

1:02:24.840 --> 1:02:28.480
<v Speaker 1>a very menacing, nasty fashion. He wasn't engaging with them.

1:02:28.480 --> 1:02:30.280
<v Speaker 1>He wasn't trying to have a conversation. He was trying

1:02:30.320 --> 1:02:33.680
<v Speaker 1>to publicly humiliate them, not just public as in on

1:02:33.880 --> 1:02:36.320
<v Speaker 1>the street in front of this planned parenthood, but then

1:02:36.360 --> 1:02:39.920
<v Speaker 1>to post this like he's some kind of hero, posted

1:02:39.960 --> 1:02:42.880
<v Speaker 1>to his social media accounts. He was proud of these interactions.

1:02:42.880 --> 1:02:47.880
<v Speaker 1>And just to remind you of State Rep. Simms's tone

1:02:47.960 --> 1:02:51.840
<v Speaker 1>and approach to teenage girls who are trying to convince

1:02:51.880 --> 1:02:55.800
<v Speaker 1>women not to kill the babies in their wombs at

1:02:55.800 --> 1:02:59.240
<v Speaker 1>a planned parenthood, here is what Simms said to these

1:02:59.280 --> 1:03:05.640
<v Speaker 1>young girls. Lay clip nine. Oh you've got here is

1:03:05.680 --> 1:03:09.440
<v Speaker 1>a bunch of protesters, a bunch of pseudo Christian protesters

1:03:09.480 --> 1:03:11.400
<v Speaker 1>who've been out here shaming young girls for being here.

1:03:11.640 --> 1:03:13.360
<v Speaker 1>And so here's the deal. I've got one hundred dollars

1:03:13.360 --> 1:03:15.520
<v Speaker 1>to anybody who will identify any of these three. So

1:03:15.720 --> 1:03:18.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna donate the plant parenthood. I'm gonna donate to

1:03:18.400 --> 1:03:21.160
<v Speaker 1>plant parents. So look a bunch of white people standing

1:03:21.160 --> 1:03:24.600
<v Speaker 1>out of a plant parents shaming people. There's nothing Christian

1:03:24.640 --> 1:03:27.280
<v Speaker 1>about what you're doing. Nothing Christians at all about what

1:03:27.320 --> 1:03:30.880
<v Speaker 1>you're doing. Hi, nothing Christian or loving or godly about

1:03:30.920 --> 1:03:32.920
<v Speaker 1>what you're doing. So I've got one hundred dollars to

1:03:32.960 --> 1:03:36.640
<v Speaker 1>anybody who will identify one hundred dollars rich What makes

1:03:36.640 --> 1:03:38.400
<v Speaker 1>you think that it's your job to tell women what's

1:03:38.440 --> 1:03:40.080
<v Speaker 1>right for their bodies? And the truth is, I'm not

1:03:40.120 --> 1:03:45.400
<v Speaker 1>really asking because I don't care. Shame on you. Notice

1:03:45.480 --> 1:03:51.400
<v Speaker 1>how much wokeness and social justice idiocy this complete moron

1:03:51.520 --> 1:03:56.560
<v Speaker 1>worked into that very short exchange that we played for you. Says,

1:03:56.560 --> 1:03:59.760
<v Speaker 1>there's nothing godly about what these girls say they're doing,

1:03:59.760 --> 1:04:02.560
<v Speaker 1>which is praying for the babies that are being aborted

1:04:02.560 --> 1:04:07.680
<v Speaker 1>in this clinic. I'm pretty sure that that's quite godly

1:04:07.760 --> 1:04:11.200
<v Speaker 1>to pray for the souls of the deceased, because that

1:04:11.280 --> 1:04:15.240
<v Speaker 1>is what is happening in this facility. He notes that

1:04:15.280 --> 1:04:18.320
<v Speaker 1>they are white, as though that's and he kind of

1:04:18.440 --> 1:04:20.800
<v Speaker 1>spits it out like that's a slur in and of itself.

1:04:20.840 --> 1:04:24.360
<v Speaker 1>These white girls standing outside there is there a problem

1:04:24.360 --> 1:04:29.400
<v Speaker 1>with that representative sims are white teenage girls not allowed

1:04:29.400 --> 1:04:32.920
<v Speaker 1>to protest, only non white teenage girls out of protests.

1:04:32.920 --> 1:04:35.200
<v Speaker 1>I just it seemed like a very strange thing to

1:04:35.360 --> 1:04:42.360
<v Speaker 1>note in his aggressive verbal assault on these on these girls,

1:04:42.400 --> 1:04:45.920
<v Speaker 1>I mean, and then the one hundred dollars offer to

1:04:46.120 --> 1:04:49.960
<v Speaker 1>docks them to humiliate them. He should know that that

1:04:50.040 --> 1:04:52.520
<v Speaker 1>could very well if that and and oh, there are

1:04:52.560 --> 1:04:56.480
<v Speaker 1>so many social justice warriors online, so many people who

1:04:56.520 --> 1:05:02.720
<v Speaker 1>work for despicable smear organizations like Media Matters and you

1:05:02.760 --> 1:05:06.360
<v Speaker 1>know the Daily Codes and you name it, all these

1:05:06.360 --> 1:05:08.760
<v Speaker 1>different websites. I mean basically a leftist website. As a

1:05:08.760 --> 1:05:11.720
<v Speaker 1>website without any honor or integrity, you can start there.

1:05:12.680 --> 1:05:15.920
<v Speaker 1>Any number of them would be happy to docs meaning

1:05:15.920 --> 1:05:19.640
<v Speaker 1>to share the private contact information home addresses of these girls.

1:05:19.880 --> 1:05:22.720
<v Speaker 1>And where is the media on this? I would ask,

1:05:23.800 --> 1:05:25.600
<v Speaker 1>where's the rest of the media. This has now gotten

1:05:25.600 --> 1:05:28.040
<v Speaker 1>a lot of attention. People have been talking about the story.

1:05:28.080 --> 1:05:30.920
<v Speaker 1>I've obviously been talking about it for days because the

1:05:31.000 --> 1:05:34.600
<v Speaker 1>same media that maybe a week or so ago, maybe

1:05:34.640 --> 1:05:39.040
<v Speaker 1>two weeks ago, was telling us that criticism of ilhan

1:05:39.200 --> 1:05:44.280
<v Speaker 1>Omar is immoral and reckless, because even though she's a

1:05:44.280 --> 1:05:48.880
<v Speaker 1>public figure, saying stupid and immoral and reckless things by

1:05:48.960 --> 1:05:53.640
<v Speaker 1>criticizing her, those of us on the right are giving

1:05:54.560 --> 1:05:57.920
<v Speaker 1>oxygen to the hatred and the threats against her. So

1:05:58.000 --> 1:06:00.920
<v Speaker 1>we were, in effect, if you criticize ilhan Omar, the

1:06:01.000 --> 1:06:04.960
<v Speaker 1>left was saying, you're putting her life in danger. That

1:06:05.120 --> 1:06:09.240
<v Speaker 1>was the storyline, ilhan Omar is a public figure and

1:06:09.800 --> 1:06:13.240
<v Speaker 1>her comments are not just fair game. It is necessary

1:06:13.280 --> 1:06:15.840
<v Speaker 1>to push back on the anti Semitism and the stupidity

1:06:15.880 --> 1:06:18.320
<v Speaker 1>of somebody like an ilhan Omar. As much as the

1:06:18.400 --> 1:06:20.720
<v Speaker 1>Left wants to protect her, and oh they're so, they

1:06:20.720 --> 1:06:23.160
<v Speaker 1>want to just she's in a special category because of

1:06:23.200 --> 1:06:25.720
<v Speaker 1>all the she represents all these different victim classes all

1:06:25.720 --> 1:06:28.320
<v Speaker 1>put together, and that means that she's special and you

1:06:28.360 --> 1:06:30.720
<v Speaker 1>can't hold her to the same standards of speech you

1:06:30.760 --> 1:06:33.200
<v Speaker 1>would other members of Congress. That's what the Left is doing,

1:06:34.400 --> 1:06:38.160
<v Speaker 1>creating and enforcing a massive double standard for ilhan Omar.

1:06:39.120 --> 1:06:43.400
<v Speaker 1>Where is that standard though, of criticizing somebody, whether you're

1:06:43.680 --> 1:06:46.320
<v Speaker 1>right in the criticism or not, can put them in

1:06:46.360 --> 1:06:48.520
<v Speaker 1>harm's way and therefore it's immoral for you to do so.

1:06:49.960 --> 1:06:52.040
<v Speaker 1>Where is that standard when it comes to a number

1:06:52.040 --> 1:06:55.000
<v Speaker 1>of teenage girls who a public official, not just a

1:06:55.000 --> 1:07:00.240
<v Speaker 1>public figure. Representative Brian seems states openly and really puts

1:07:00.240 --> 1:07:04.720
<v Speaker 1>out a bounty on the privacy of these girls, asking

1:07:04.760 --> 1:07:07.320
<v Speaker 1>for them, paying to pay for them to be docked,

1:07:08.520 --> 1:07:10.800
<v Speaker 1>like it's the DNC paying for the dossier, and all

1:07:10.800 --> 1:07:12.560
<v Speaker 1>of a sudden, if you pay for the bad behavior.

1:07:12.600 --> 1:07:17.440
<v Speaker 1>It makes it okay, huh not. The mother of the

1:07:17.480 --> 1:07:21.200
<v Speaker 1>teen girls who were confronted by Representative Simms had some

1:07:22.480 --> 1:07:24.800
<v Speaker 1>thoughts on how she, as a mother of young girls,

1:07:24.840 --> 1:07:27.240
<v Speaker 1>a mother of young girls who were out there praying

1:07:27.280 --> 1:07:30.840
<v Speaker 1>for the souls of murdered babies at a planned parentod clinic,

1:07:31.800 --> 1:07:34.520
<v Speaker 1>how does she feel as a mom about this play eight.

1:07:34.920 --> 1:07:38.400
<v Speaker 1>It was a shocking experience. What is not seen in

1:07:38.440 --> 1:07:42.160
<v Speaker 1>that video was our first interaction with mister Simms. He

1:07:42.800 --> 1:07:48.080
<v Speaker 1>approached us about twenty minutes before that came in. I

1:07:48.120 --> 1:07:49.920
<v Speaker 1>would say he came in hot. He came in yelling

1:07:49.960 --> 1:07:54.760
<v Speaker 1>at us, and really was yelling very directly at the girls,

1:07:54.880 --> 1:07:58.800
<v Speaker 1>very specifically at the girls. So I moved myself in

1:07:58.840 --> 1:08:01.320
<v Speaker 1>between him and the girl asked him, you know, please

1:08:01.360 --> 1:08:03.880
<v Speaker 1>talk to me. Let's let's have a conversation and the

1:08:03.880 --> 1:08:06.240
<v Speaker 1>two of us as two adults. But he continued to

1:08:06.320 --> 1:08:09.200
<v Speaker 1>yell at the girls, and then eventually he laughed in

1:08:09.200 --> 1:08:12.240
<v Speaker 1>about ten minutes later, as when he came back videotaping us.

1:08:12.640 --> 1:08:16.479
<v Speaker 1>So after our first altercation with him, I went and

1:08:16.520 --> 1:08:20.320
<v Speaker 1>talked to my girls and told them, you know, I'm

1:08:20.320 --> 1:08:22.120
<v Speaker 1>really sorry this happened. I'm really proud of you guys

1:08:22.120 --> 1:08:26.320
<v Speaker 1>for being here. Sadly, ironically, the two older girls looked

1:08:26.320 --> 1:08:28.479
<v Speaker 1>at me and said, mom, that was nothing compared to

1:08:28.520 --> 1:08:31.240
<v Speaker 1>what people were screaming at us at the March for Life.

1:08:33.960 --> 1:08:37.560
<v Speaker 1>This guy is a maniac. You're hearing here from the

1:08:37.600 --> 1:08:39.439
<v Speaker 1>mom of these young girls. This wasn't even a heat

1:08:39.439 --> 1:08:44.360
<v Speaker 1>of the moment thing. He initially accosted them. The mother

1:08:44.400 --> 1:08:46.160
<v Speaker 1>steps and says, we're adults, why don't we talk, and

1:08:46.160 --> 1:08:48.360
<v Speaker 1>he goes, no, no, no. Brian Simms wants to yell

1:08:48.400 --> 1:08:50.920
<v Speaker 1>at a bunch of teenage girls. This guy looks to

1:08:50.920 --> 1:08:52.960
<v Speaker 1>be maybe about my age, maybe a little older. I mean,

1:08:53.000 --> 1:08:57.240
<v Speaker 1>I do have a youthful appearance, and I would never

1:08:57.280 --> 1:09:01.080
<v Speaker 1>scream at teenage girls for protesting for any reason, because

1:09:01.120 --> 1:09:05.080
<v Speaker 1>there's an inherent level of menace from a six ft

1:09:05.080 --> 1:09:10.000
<v Speaker 1>tall adult male screaming and threatening a bunch of teenage girls.

1:09:10.880 --> 1:09:15.120
<v Speaker 1>That's just not okay. A decent person, an honorable person,

1:09:15.200 --> 1:09:19.000
<v Speaker 1>an honorable man, a real man wouldn't do that. This

1:09:19.040 --> 1:09:20.840
<v Speaker 1>guy did it, not only to do it once, then

1:09:20.880 --> 1:09:22.680
<v Speaker 1>he came back to videotape it because he was so

1:09:22.720 --> 1:09:24.960
<v Speaker 1>proud of it, and now he wants to claim in

1:09:25.040 --> 1:09:28.559
<v Speaker 1>his non apology apology video, Oh, it's just because I've

1:09:28.600 --> 1:09:31.200
<v Speaker 1>seen all the horrible things that are said. I'm sorry.

1:09:31.720 --> 1:09:33.719
<v Speaker 1>The left likes to play this game a lot these days.

1:09:33.800 --> 1:09:35.760
<v Speaker 1>Well maybe I was out of line with this, but

1:09:35.840 --> 1:09:37.519
<v Speaker 1>there are a lot of other people that do bad

1:09:37.520 --> 1:09:41.719
<v Speaker 1>things and that just kind of makes what I did okay. No, sorry,

1:09:42.160 --> 1:09:44.920
<v Speaker 1>you don't get to just muddy the waters on what

1:09:45.000 --> 1:09:51.880
<v Speaker 1>morality is here, on what ethics are individual culpability is

1:09:51.920 --> 1:09:54.360
<v Speaker 1>what matters, not what someone else did somewhere else that

1:09:54.439 --> 1:09:56.800
<v Speaker 1>influenced your thinking at this point in time, for an

1:09:56.840 --> 1:09:59.280
<v Speaker 1>interaction with the human being that had nothing to do

1:09:59.439 --> 1:10:03.559
<v Speaker 1>with those other things you're talking about. That some people

1:10:03.640 --> 1:10:05.599
<v Speaker 1>may have been mean to women going into planned parented

1:10:05.640 --> 1:10:09.000
<v Speaker 1>clinics at another time and another place does not justify

1:10:09.040 --> 1:10:12.280
<v Speaker 1>this guy acting like a lunatic when women, young women

1:10:12.280 --> 1:10:14.880
<v Speaker 1>are trying to pray outside of a parentered clinic this time.

1:10:16.600 --> 1:10:20.960
<v Speaker 1>But you see this, You know this is the lack

1:10:21.280 --> 1:10:27.320
<v Speaker 1>of accountability on the left is astonishing, But it's the

1:10:27.400 --> 1:10:29.880
<v Speaker 1>reality because they know that the media is not going

1:10:29.920 --> 1:10:31.640
<v Speaker 1>to pick up the mainstream media is not picking up

1:10:31.640 --> 1:10:34.439
<v Speaker 1>the story, not touching this story, and this comes the

1:10:34.479 --> 1:10:38.400
<v Speaker 1>same week where you had a former city councilwoman for

1:10:38.439 --> 1:10:40.639
<v Speaker 1>the City of New York saying that you know, it's

1:10:40.680 --> 1:10:42.320
<v Speaker 1>not a human being in the womb. I mean the

1:10:43.080 --> 1:10:46.760
<v Speaker 1>stupidity on display from the left on these issues, the

1:10:46.960 --> 1:10:49.559
<v Speaker 1>straw men they set up on the abortion issue too.

1:10:51.720 --> 1:10:53.919
<v Speaker 1>It just tells you all you need to know about

1:10:54.360 --> 1:11:00.439
<v Speaker 1>how morally decrepit the modern Democratic Party is and really

1:11:00.479 --> 1:11:03.840
<v Speaker 1>how there's no coming back for them with all this stuff.

1:11:03.880 --> 1:11:07.080
<v Speaker 1>They will never change their minds because their party has

1:11:07.120 --> 1:11:11.439
<v Speaker 1>been degraded, ethically, degraded in a way where they would

1:11:11.439 --> 1:11:14.680
<v Speaker 1>have to form a new party. Once the final recognition

1:11:14.720 --> 1:11:16.040
<v Speaker 1>comes in of what they've been doing, they'll have to

1:11:16.080 --> 1:11:17.840
<v Speaker 1>form an entirely new party, and they're not willing to

1:11:17.880 --> 1:11:20.840
<v Speaker 1>do that because they want power. We'll be right back.

1:11:22.760 --> 1:11:27.120
<v Speaker 1>You are now entering the Freedom Hottital Operation Center. All

1:11:27.240 --> 1:11:31.960
<v Speaker 1>sensitive programs MUSTY keeps strictly neat to know. Team Buck

1:11:32.120 --> 1:11:37.000
<v Speaker 1>is cleared and ready for the Buck Brief. Almost one

1:11:37.080 --> 1:11:39.200
<v Speaker 1>year ago, after a drawing from the Iran Nuclear Deal,

1:11:39.240 --> 1:11:42.639
<v Speaker 1>President Trump implemented the strongest pressure campaign in history against

1:11:42.680 --> 1:11:46.680
<v Speaker 1>the Islamic Republic of Iran. The goal remains simple, to

1:11:46.800 --> 1:11:49.400
<v Speaker 1>deprive the outlaw regime of the funds that is used

1:11:49.439 --> 1:11:53.000
<v Speaker 1>to stabilize the Middle East for four decades and instead

1:11:53.040 --> 1:11:56.640
<v Speaker 1>of iz Iran to behave like a normal country. Up

1:11:56.680 --> 1:11:59.400
<v Speaker 1>to forty percent of the regime's revenue comes from oil sales.

1:12:00.280 --> 1:12:03.880
<v Speaker 1>It's the regime's number one source of cash. Before our

1:12:03.880 --> 1:12:06.120
<v Speaker 1>sanctions went into effect, Iran will generate as much as

1:12:06.120 --> 1:12:09.920
<v Speaker 1>fifty billion dollars annually in oil revenue. Overall, Today we

1:12:10.040 --> 1:12:13.240
<v Speaker 1>estimate that our sanctions have denied the regime well north

1:12:13.280 --> 1:12:17.080
<v Speaker 1>of ten million dollars. Our goal has been to get

1:12:17.120 --> 1:12:21.400
<v Speaker 1>countries to see supporting Iranian oil entirely. Last November, we

1:12:21.520 --> 1:12:25.200
<v Speaker 1>granted exemptions from our sanctions to seven countries and to Taiwan.

1:12:26.000 --> 1:12:27.920
<v Speaker 1>With this this to give our allies and partners to

1:12:27.960 --> 1:12:30.800
<v Speaker 1>wean themselves off of Iranian oil and to ensure a

1:12:30.840 --> 1:12:35.080
<v Speaker 1>well supplied oil market. Today, I am announcing that we

1:12:35.120 --> 1:12:38.880
<v Speaker 1>will no longer grant any exemptions. We're going to zero,

1:12:39.840 --> 1:12:42.720
<v Speaker 1>going to zero across the board. I'm a Secretary of

1:12:42.760 --> 1:12:47.000
<v Speaker 1>State Pompeo letting everybody know that the noose is getting

1:12:47.040 --> 1:12:51.839
<v Speaker 1>tightened around the Iranian economy and the showdown between Trump

1:12:51.880 --> 1:12:56.880
<v Speaker 1>and Tehran is heating up. Now you have the Iranians

1:12:56.960 --> 1:13:00.720
<v Speaker 1>today threatening to end compliance with parts of the nuclear deal.

1:13:00.760 --> 1:13:03.200
<v Speaker 1>The US is also threatening new sanctions. We've got a

1:13:03.240 --> 1:13:07.880
<v Speaker 1>lot of movement here in US Iranian relations. We've got

1:13:07.880 --> 1:13:10.080
<v Speaker 1>a great guest right now to help us work through

1:13:10.080 --> 1:13:13.919
<v Speaker 1>it all. Jonathan Schanzer, Senior vice president at the Foundation

1:13:13.960 --> 1:13:16.840
<v Speaker 1>for Defense of Democracies. Jonathan. Always good to have you on,

1:13:17.600 --> 1:13:20.040
<v Speaker 1>Great to be with you. Buck. All right, let's start

1:13:20.080 --> 1:13:22.519
<v Speaker 1>first with what is the before we talk about the

1:13:22.560 --> 1:13:27.519
<v Speaker 1>Iranian response thus far and what they're threatening. What is

1:13:27.560 --> 1:13:30.200
<v Speaker 1>the change that's happened in the last week or so

1:13:30.520 --> 1:13:34.360
<v Speaker 1>from the Trump administration position in terms of how we

1:13:34.400 --> 1:13:37.479
<v Speaker 1>are approaching Iran. Now, okay, so a couple of things.

1:13:37.600 --> 1:13:42.879
<v Speaker 1>Number One, we were issuing waivers. We were allowing certain

1:13:42.960 --> 1:13:46.439
<v Speaker 1>countries to continue to buy Iranian oil. We have zeroed

1:13:46.439 --> 1:13:50.480
<v Speaker 1>that out. We're not really giving waivers on anything anymore

1:13:50.479 --> 1:13:55.439
<v Speaker 1>related to Iran, not with its civilian nuclear program, really

1:13:55.479 --> 1:13:58.519
<v Speaker 1>not with much of anything at this point. So we've

1:13:58.520 --> 1:14:03.320
<v Speaker 1>done that. The Iranians are definitely feeling the financial squeeze.

1:14:03.360 --> 1:14:07.240
<v Speaker 1>They're getting blocked out of markets. Companies are afraid to

1:14:07.280 --> 1:14:10.000
<v Speaker 1>do business with Iran because they know that they have

1:14:10.080 --> 1:14:12.559
<v Speaker 1>a choice. They can either do business with US, the

1:14:12.560 --> 1:14:15.320
<v Speaker 1>world's largest economy, or with the Iranians, which is a

1:14:15.360 --> 1:14:18.040
<v Speaker 1>far smaller one that carries with it a good bit

1:14:18.080 --> 1:14:22.760
<v Speaker 1>of risk. So the news is tightening. As Secretary Pompeo said,

1:14:23.000 --> 1:14:25.360
<v Speaker 1>in the meantime, you've got people in Iran who are

1:14:25.400 --> 1:14:29.080
<v Speaker 1>increasingly growing restless and unhappy with the way that the

1:14:29.120 --> 1:14:32.679
<v Speaker 1>regime has decided to allocate the resources that it has.

1:14:33.800 --> 1:14:36.600
<v Speaker 1>And now the US today actually just imposed news sanctions.

1:14:36.640 --> 1:14:39.840
<v Speaker 1>So now you've got oil off the table, You've got

1:14:40.280 --> 1:14:44.200
<v Speaker 1>petrochemicals and other oil products off the table. And then

1:14:44.439 --> 1:14:48.080
<v Speaker 1>just today you've now got iron, steel, aluminum, copper, all

1:14:48.080 --> 1:14:50.920
<v Speaker 1>the precious metals that they sell that's also off the table.

1:14:50.960 --> 1:14:54.920
<v Speaker 1>So all the major things that give are on cash

1:14:55.200 --> 1:14:58.120
<v Speaker 1>foreign currency are just drying up, and you can just

1:14:58.240 --> 1:15:03.000
<v Speaker 1>feel the pressure mount. What's supposed to happen if some

1:15:03.120 --> 1:15:05.439
<v Speaker 1>of these countries we had been giving a waiver two

1:15:05.479 --> 1:15:09.040
<v Speaker 1>so that they could do business with essentially buy stuff

1:15:09.080 --> 1:15:12.800
<v Speaker 1>from Iran, mostly oil, right, but other if those countries say,

1:15:12.920 --> 1:15:15.320
<v Speaker 1>you know what, I'm sorry, We're not going to dance

1:15:15.320 --> 1:15:18.120
<v Speaker 1>to America's tune on this one. What do we do.

1:15:19.040 --> 1:15:21.760
<v Speaker 1>So it really depends. You know, there are countries like

1:15:21.840 --> 1:15:24.880
<v Speaker 1>China in Russia that will some of there knows that

1:15:24.920 --> 1:15:27.920
<v Speaker 1>the United States and we don't really have a major response,

1:15:28.360 --> 1:15:30.160
<v Speaker 1>But there are other countries, those that are a bit

1:15:30.200 --> 1:15:34.040
<v Speaker 1>more plugged into the US led economy, or perhaps we

1:15:34.080 --> 1:15:36.400
<v Speaker 1>have a little bit more leverage, we can start to

1:15:36.439 --> 1:15:41.040
<v Speaker 1>sanction them or their businesses, or their banks or the

1:15:41.080 --> 1:15:44.320
<v Speaker 1>people that are facilitating these transactions. And that's something that

1:15:44.360 --> 1:15:46.280
<v Speaker 1>people just don't want. You have to remember that we

1:15:46.360 --> 1:15:49.400
<v Speaker 1>still have the most powerful banking system in the world,

1:15:49.840 --> 1:15:53.720
<v Speaker 1>that the dollar is still the most ubiquitous currency, the

1:15:53.720 --> 1:15:56.479
<v Speaker 1>one that everybody uses around the world. So people want

1:15:56.560 --> 1:16:01.479
<v Speaker 1>access to our system. It's trusted, the dollar is still king,

1:16:01.640 --> 1:16:05.479
<v Speaker 1>so uh, it's there's a real fear of engaging in

1:16:05.560 --> 1:16:10.960
<v Speaker 1>this kind of uh of transaction. But also remember that

1:16:11.040 --> 1:16:15.479
<v Speaker 1>if we determine the risks because it's our system, it

1:16:15.560 --> 1:16:18.920
<v Speaker 1>can really hurt other countries and other companies as they

1:16:18.920 --> 1:16:22.559
<v Speaker 1>look to do business around the world. Now, the EU

1:16:23.000 --> 1:16:27.960
<v Speaker 1>is still in the nuclear deal with Iran, do we

1:16:28.040 --> 1:16:31.320
<v Speaker 1>have concerns that there are EU countries that aren't going

1:16:31.600 --> 1:16:33.960
<v Speaker 1>aren't going to go along with the sanctions we have

1:16:34.000 --> 1:16:35.880
<v Speaker 1>in place, you know, do we think we have the

1:16:35.960 --> 1:16:40.439
<v Speaker 1>leverage to force them to keep playing ball our way?

1:16:40.560 --> 1:16:43.280
<v Speaker 1>This is I would say, one of the sort of

1:16:43.320 --> 1:16:45.600
<v Speaker 1>tense things that are happening right now between US and

1:16:45.600 --> 1:16:49.360
<v Speaker 1>the Europeans. It's not just NATO. Uh, there's this and

1:16:49.680 --> 1:16:53.120
<v Speaker 1>uh and and really it stems from when the President

1:16:53.280 --> 1:16:56.120
<v Speaker 1>left the nuclear deal. He did so right in the

1:16:56.120 --> 1:16:59.200
<v Speaker 1>middle of negotiations with the Europeans. We had been working

1:16:59.320 --> 1:17:02.040
<v Speaker 1>our Dippo mats, were working with Theirs to try to

1:17:02.080 --> 1:17:04.400
<v Speaker 1>find some kind of a compromise, and right in the

1:17:04.439 --> 1:17:07.200
<v Speaker 1>middle of that, the President decided he had had enough

1:17:07.320 --> 1:17:09.519
<v Speaker 1>that he didn't think that they were moving quick enough,

1:17:09.800 --> 1:17:12.360
<v Speaker 1>and so he pulled out. So there has been tension

1:17:13.240 --> 1:17:16.559
<v Speaker 1>really high. Sat in a meeting with British diplomats and

1:17:16.560 --> 1:17:21.040
<v Speaker 1>I've never seen such tension before. They were particularly grumpy

1:17:21.080 --> 1:17:26.080
<v Speaker 1>about about the President's decision. So you have this tension

1:17:26.120 --> 1:17:27.800
<v Speaker 1>that has existed. They want to try to keep a

1:17:27.840 --> 1:17:30.360
<v Speaker 1>run in the deal. They want to run to continue

1:17:30.400 --> 1:17:34.000
<v Speaker 1>to limit its nuclear activities and the United States and said, look,

1:17:34.080 --> 1:17:36.479
<v Speaker 1>this wasn't working in the first place. Not only do

1:17:36.560 --> 1:17:38.759
<v Speaker 1>we find out that they had all sorts of secrets

1:17:38.760 --> 1:17:41.559
<v Speaker 1>that they had kept from the IAEA. But on top

1:17:41.600 --> 1:17:44.920
<v Speaker 1>of that, they've been spending money all around the world

1:17:45.000 --> 1:17:48.439
<v Speaker 1>to disrupt the Middle East, to sponsor terrorism, and to

1:17:48.600 --> 1:17:50.840
<v Speaker 1>engage in a bunch of other behaviors that we don't like.

1:17:51.960 --> 1:17:54.640
<v Speaker 1>And so what the Europeans have decided to do to

1:17:54.680 --> 1:17:56.679
<v Speaker 1>try to sweeten the deal is they've been talking about

1:17:56.720 --> 1:18:00.600
<v Speaker 1>something called an SPV special purpose vehicle, which would be

1:18:00.640 --> 1:18:03.960
<v Speaker 1>a way of maintaining trade outside of the normal channels

1:18:03.960 --> 1:18:06.559
<v Speaker 1>that would impact the United States, so they could find

1:18:06.600 --> 1:18:10.840
<v Speaker 1>themselves sort of inoculated from sanctions. We have not seen

1:18:10.920 --> 1:18:13.439
<v Speaker 1>any significant use of this, but it doesn't mean that

1:18:13.479 --> 1:18:16.280
<v Speaker 1>the Europeans still won't think about using it. So we're

1:18:16.320 --> 1:18:19.040
<v Speaker 1>trying to deter them and to keep them with us

1:18:19.760 --> 1:18:22.640
<v Speaker 1>because a divided West is not one that's ultimately going

1:18:22.640 --> 1:18:26.639
<v Speaker 1>to get the Iranian regime to bend. And on the

1:18:26.680 --> 1:18:30.680
<v Speaker 1>Iranian threat, now, the Iranians are saying that they are

1:18:30.760 --> 1:18:34.920
<v Speaker 1>going to back out, even though the Europeans are still

1:18:34.920 --> 1:18:37.400
<v Speaker 1>in this deal with them, because the Trump administration pulled

1:18:37.439 --> 1:18:39.600
<v Speaker 1>out of this deal. The Iranians are now saying that

1:18:39.680 --> 1:18:43.599
<v Speaker 1>they will move away from some of the obligations under

1:18:43.600 --> 1:18:46.840
<v Speaker 1>the deal, including enriching uranium, right, I mean, this is

1:18:46.880 --> 1:18:50.000
<v Speaker 1>some pretty red line level stuff in terms of the deal,

1:18:50.120 --> 1:18:52.080
<v Speaker 1>not necessarily red line in terms of a military strike,

1:18:52.120 --> 1:18:54.240
<v Speaker 1>but this is important stuff that's in the deal. What

1:18:54.560 --> 1:18:55.880
<v Speaker 1>do you make of this one? Do you think the

1:18:55.880 --> 1:18:58.120
<v Speaker 1>Iranians will do it? And too? If they do it,

1:18:58.200 --> 1:19:01.000
<v Speaker 1>what are we going to do? I think there was

1:19:01.000 --> 1:19:02.600
<v Speaker 1>always a risk that they were going to start to

1:19:02.640 --> 1:19:06.519
<v Speaker 1>do this, that they were going to start to violate

1:19:06.560 --> 1:19:09.799
<v Speaker 1>the deal incrementally, and I would expect that that's exactly

1:19:09.880 --> 1:19:11.240
<v Speaker 1>what they're going to do. They're going to sort of

1:19:11.320 --> 1:19:15.400
<v Speaker 1>raise the temperature slowly over time and probably not go

1:19:15.520 --> 1:19:20.200
<v Speaker 1>for for, you know, large amounts of enriched uranium right away.

1:19:19.880 --> 1:19:21.960
<v Speaker 1>And so now they've just said, look where you've been

1:19:21.960 --> 1:19:23.599
<v Speaker 1>out of the deal for a year, we're not getting

1:19:23.600 --> 1:19:27.760
<v Speaker 1>what we want. We want more, you know, financial transactions

1:19:27.760 --> 1:19:31.000
<v Speaker 1>with the West and US sanctions are harming that. So

1:19:31.160 --> 1:19:33.559
<v Speaker 1>we're going to do what you know that that you

1:19:33.600 --> 1:19:36.639
<v Speaker 1>don't want us to do, which is to enrich So

1:19:36.800 --> 1:19:39.560
<v Speaker 1>I think they start off small and moving crementally. The

1:19:39.640 --> 1:19:41.840
<v Speaker 1>question is how much will the United States put up with?

1:19:42.120 --> 1:19:45.800
<v Speaker 1>How much before the Europeans actually join our side? And

1:19:45.840 --> 1:19:48.200
<v Speaker 1>this is I think this is going to be the

1:19:48.240 --> 1:19:51.200
<v Speaker 1>interesting part to watch. Do the Iranians understand who they're

1:19:51.200 --> 1:19:53.519
<v Speaker 1>playing with here and do they understand how to keep

1:19:53.520 --> 1:19:56.559
<v Speaker 1>the Iranians with them while also preventing us from taking

1:19:56.560 --> 1:19:59.920
<v Speaker 1>more drastic measures. Is this the right move, Jonathan? I mean,

1:20:00.240 --> 1:20:02.559
<v Speaker 1>I see what's going on here at the administration, and

1:20:02.800 --> 1:20:04.680
<v Speaker 1>I've we've talked about the Iran deal before here in

1:20:04.760 --> 1:20:08.120
<v Speaker 1>the show. It's clearly a very flawed deal. Obama administration

1:20:08.240 --> 1:20:11.040
<v Speaker 1>was just desperate for a foreign policy legacy, and you

1:20:11.080 --> 1:20:13.320
<v Speaker 1>know that that all still very much stands for me.

1:20:13.720 --> 1:20:18.360
<v Speaker 1>But I'm hearing people say Bolton, who is a hawkish

1:20:18.360 --> 1:20:20.599
<v Speaker 1>guy on a whole bunch of weather truck in Venezuela,

1:20:20.640 --> 1:20:22.200
<v Speaker 1>or on a whole bunch of things and has been

1:20:22.200 --> 1:20:27.120
<v Speaker 1>for a long time. This is these are the kind

1:20:27.160 --> 1:20:31.639
<v Speaker 1>of moves that could lead to miscalculation and perhaps even

1:20:31.840 --> 1:20:38.080
<v Speaker 1>unintended military consequences. That's that's concerning to me. I mean,

1:20:38.479 --> 1:20:40.360
<v Speaker 1>is this the right move to people who are just

1:20:40.400 --> 1:20:42.120
<v Speaker 1>saying in the back of their you know, people are

1:20:42.160 --> 1:20:45.720
<v Speaker 1>thinking the back of their minds, the Trump administration cannot

1:20:46.280 --> 1:20:48.600
<v Speaker 1>engage in some kind of Mid East war, you know,

1:20:48.720 --> 1:20:52.479
<v Speaker 1>we need four years here, preferably eight of no wars

1:20:52.520 --> 1:20:55.080
<v Speaker 1>the Mid East. Is this Iranian stuff getting close to

1:20:55.080 --> 1:20:56.400
<v Speaker 1>the line for you or is this what we have

1:20:56.479 --> 1:21:00.840
<v Speaker 1>to do? You know, it's it's unclear to me, you know,

1:21:00.960 --> 1:21:03.760
<v Speaker 1>exactly what the Iranians next move would be. I think

1:21:04.800 --> 1:21:07.639
<v Speaker 1>we actually just had an event today where hr McMaster

1:21:07.760 --> 1:21:10.600
<v Speaker 1>said that there are two ways of challenging in the

1:21:10.680 --> 1:21:13.960
<v Speaker 1>United States, and one is through asymmetrics and the other

1:21:13.960 --> 1:21:17.200
<v Speaker 1>way is just to be stupid. In other words, if

1:21:17.240 --> 1:21:19.519
<v Speaker 1>the Iranians decide they want to challenge the United States,

1:21:19.560 --> 1:21:21.800
<v Speaker 1>the only way they can do that is, you know,

1:21:21.920 --> 1:21:25.400
<v Speaker 1>is by way of insurgency or through terrorism. There there

1:21:25.560 --> 1:21:28.240
<v Speaker 1>is no way for the Iranians to challenge the US

1:21:28.240 --> 1:21:32.559
<v Speaker 1>in a conventional fashion and win. The US would crush

1:21:32.600 --> 1:21:35.960
<v Speaker 1>the Iranian military. So, you know, when we think about

1:21:36.120 --> 1:21:38.680
<v Speaker 1>what does a war mean, you know, I think it's

1:21:38.720 --> 1:21:42.080
<v Speaker 1>hard to define. Can we imagine a situation where the

1:21:42.080 --> 1:21:46.280
<v Speaker 1>Iranians deploy their militias in Iraq, which is apparently one

1:21:46.280 --> 1:21:49.360
<v Speaker 1>of the reasons why Pompeo went to Iraq just the

1:21:49.400 --> 1:21:53.080
<v Speaker 1>other day to confer with Iraqi leadership because of specific

1:21:53.080 --> 1:21:57.200
<v Speaker 1>and credible concerns yeah, we can imagine a scenario like that,

1:21:57.320 --> 1:22:01.479
<v Speaker 1>or perhaps harassment of our navy, you know, in the

1:22:01.520 --> 1:22:05.320
<v Speaker 1>Strait of Hormus. We can certainly imagine that. But in

1:22:05.439 --> 1:22:07.560
<v Speaker 1>terms of a full on war, it's very hard to

1:22:07.920 --> 1:22:12.080
<v Speaker 1>imagine the Iranians deciding that they want to trifle with

1:22:12.360 --> 1:22:16.920
<v Speaker 1>a powerful military like ours. But could you see a

1:22:16.960 --> 1:22:21.160
<v Speaker 1>situation where we start having regime change conversations if you know,

1:22:21.240 --> 1:22:24.120
<v Speaker 1>if they do miscalculate on the Iranian side, Let's say

1:22:24.120 --> 1:22:27.519
<v Speaker 1>they do unleash the Shia militias in Iraq to go

1:22:27.560 --> 1:22:29.760
<v Speaker 1>after not just the Iraqis, but our interest in that

1:22:29.760 --> 1:22:31.639
<v Speaker 1>country too, go after the ambassy. There's a whole bunch

1:22:31.680 --> 1:22:35.520
<v Speaker 1>of war gaming. We could do theorizing, but based on reality,

1:22:35.920 --> 1:22:37.880
<v Speaker 1>and all of a sudden, the US starts blowing up

1:22:37.920 --> 1:22:41.559
<v Speaker 1>IRGC headquarters, there's air strikes. Is this that we break

1:22:41.560 --> 1:22:43.920
<v Speaker 1>it we buy it situation. I'm just trying to gauge

1:22:43.960 --> 1:22:48.519
<v Speaker 1>your concerns about over involvement in Iran. Sure, and look,

1:22:48.560 --> 1:22:51.040
<v Speaker 1>I think all those things are valid, especially after what

1:22:51.240 --> 1:22:54.320
<v Speaker 1>this country has gone through over the last twenty years

1:22:54.360 --> 1:22:56.920
<v Speaker 1>and the challenges that we've had in Afghanistan and Iraq,

1:22:57.000 --> 1:23:00.640
<v Speaker 1>and to a far lesser extent Syria, and so you know,

1:23:00.760 --> 1:23:02.720
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to discount those. But what you know,

1:23:02.880 --> 1:23:06.360
<v Speaker 1>so far, we're not hearing anything from this administration about

1:23:06.400 --> 1:23:09.639
<v Speaker 1>an invasion or about regime change. What we're talking about,

1:23:09.880 --> 1:23:13.400
<v Speaker 1>at least, what we're hearing is UH, you know, severe

1:23:13.560 --> 1:23:18.320
<v Speaker 1>maximum UH financial pressure, trying to get the administration to

1:23:19.360 --> 1:23:21.600
<v Speaker 1>or rather to get to get the Iranians, according to

1:23:21.600 --> 1:23:26.679
<v Speaker 1>administration demands UH to change core behaviors. Right that, Pompeo

1:23:26.800 --> 1:23:30.160
<v Speaker 1>laid out a number of things that he's just expecting

1:23:30.400 --> 1:23:32.080
<v Speaker 1>the Iranians to do, but he summed it up in

1:23:32.120 --> 1:23:34.160
<v Speaker 1>one very easy sentence. He said, I just want the

1:23:34.200 --> 1:23:37.719
<v Speaker 1>Iranians to be like a normal country. Right, so that means,

1:23:38.040 --> 1:23:42.960
<v Speaker 1>you know, stopping terrorism and missile provocations and propping up

1:23:42.960 --> 1:23:46.439
<v Speaker 1>dictators and murderers. It's that kind of thing that we're

1:23:46.439 --> 1:23:48.840
<v Speaker 1>trying to get from them. And so far everything that

1:23:48.880 --> 1:23:53.200
<v Speaker 1>we've done is is financial pressure. Now we have just

1:23:53.360 --> 1:23:57.680
<v Speaker 1>actually ordered a carrier group into the Persian Gulf. But

1:23:57.880 --> 1:24:02.880
<v Speaker 1>as Ambassador John Huntsman's that, this is a one hundred

1:24:02.920 --> 1:24:06.680
<v Speaker 1>thousand tons of diplomacy that ultimately we're backing up what

1:24:06.720 --> 1:24:10.160
<v Speaker 1>we're asking for from the Iranians with the threat of

1:24:10.200 --> 1:24:14.160
<v Speaker 1>military force, but we don't necessarily see anything where the

1:24:14.280 --> 1:24:17.479
<v Speaker 1>US is geared toward battle. And my hope is that

1:24:17.520 --> 1:24:19.559
<v Speaker 1>it stays that way, that we're going to be able

1:24:19.600 --> 1:24:22.639
<v Speaker 1>to avoid conflict and to get the Iranians to back

1:24:22.680 --> 1:24:26.000
<v Speaker 1>down on the uranium enrichment, but also a lot of

1:24:26.040 --> 1:24:28.840
<v Speaker 1>the other things that have caused us concern for quite

1:24:28.880 --> 1:24:31.120
<v Speaker 1>some time. Yeah, having spent some time in a rock

1:24:31.160 --> 1:24:33.759
<v Speaker 1>and Afghanistan, I just I just don't want anyone listening

1:24:33.800 --> 1:24:36.160
<v Speaker 1>to this to end up, you know, walking the streets

1:24:36.160 --> 1:24:38.880
<v Speaker 1>of Tehran trying to make sure that a bunch of

1:24:38.880 --> 1:24:41.240
<v Speaker 1>militias aren't shooting at each other again. You know. It's

1:24:41.240 --> 1:24:43.160
<v Speaker 1>just I think we got to make sure we all

1:24:43.240 --> 1:24:45.479
<v Speaker 1>learn the lessons of what we've seen is as you

1:24:45.520 --> 1:24:47.320
<v Speaker 1>mentioned for the last twenty or so years, of what

1:24:47.439 --> 1:24:51.320
<v Speaker 1>is possible and what is a good idea. But always

1:24:51.320 --> 1:24:53.360
<v Speaker 1>good to talk to you, mister Jonathan Schanzer from the

1:24:53.360 --> 1:24:56.120
<v Speaker 1>Foundation of Defensive Democracies, Thanks for being on the show,

1:24:56.479 --> 1:24:58.640
<v Speaker 1>Thanks for having me. All right, team give you a

1:24:58.720 --> 1:25:01.200
<v Speaker 1>national security deep dive. Very interesting stuff going on with

1:25:01.280 --> 1:25:02.920
<v Speaker 1>they wrong though, so I think it was important that

1:25:02.960 --> 1:25:04.720
<v Speaker 1>we cover all of that, you're gonna hear a lot

1:25:04.760 --> 1:25:07.200
<v Speaker 1>of whining from the press about how Trump is crazy

1:25:07.240 --> 1:25:09.960
<v Speaker 1>when it comes to Iran. Not true, and that's why

1:25:10.000 --> 1:25:11.920
<v Speaker 1>I like to bring on people who really know what's up,

1:25:12.000 --> 1:25:13.880
<v Speaker 1>know what time it is when it comes to foreign policy,

1:25:13.920 --> 1:25:16.519
<v Speaker 1>like mister Schanzer. We'll be right back. I worry that

1:25:16.640 --> 1:25:19.680
<v Speaker 1>we're in the same position as the nuclear industry was

1:25:20.040 --> 1:25:23.680
<v Speaker 1>in the early fifties. We have an amazing new technology

1:25:24.120 --> 1:25:27.000
<v Speaker 1>with real potential, but we are not being honest about

1:25:27.000 --> 1:25:30.760
<v Speaker 1>the risks and our incapacity to store a wasteful and

1:25:30.800 --> 1:25:33.880
<v Speaker 1>harmful byproduct. The pattern that I've seen in my industry

1:25:34.479 --> 1:25:39.479
<v Speaker 1>is one of deceit. We're not honest about what we collect.

1:25:39.640 --> 1:25:41.439
<v Speaker 1>The problem number one, it seems to me as a

1:25:41.560 --> 1:25:45.400
<v Speaker 1>user agreement. Why don't we just require social media companies

1:25:46.280 --> 1:25:49.479
<v Speaker 1>to write user agreements in plain English? Would that help

1:25:49.479 --> 1:25:52.519
<v Speaker 1>put the problem? I think that that user givement would

1:25:52.520 --> 1:25:55.120
<v Speaker 1>just say we're taking all your data. Yes or Now

1:25:57.600 --> 1:26:00.439
<v Speaker 1>that's a lot of honesty from the founder of board

1:26:00.479 --> 1:26:04.160
<v Speaker 1>and internet company that he's testifying. The guy's name is

1:26:04.240 --> 1:26:07.200
<v Speaker 1>Massi Edge Jaglowski. I don't know how to say that

1:26:07.320 --> 1:26:09.280
<v Speaker 1>as close as I can get he was at a

1:26:09.280 --> 1:26:14.679
<v Speaker 1>Senate Banking Committee hearing. And you know, sure enough, people

1:26:14.680 --> 1:26:16.760
<v Speaker 1>are starting to wake up to what we've been talking

1:26:16.760 --> 1:26:20.599
<v Speaker 1>about here on the show for a long time, and

1:26:20.800 --> 1:26:27.799
<v Speaker 1>that is that the entire Internet system, of social media

1:26:27.960 --> 1:26:32.920
<v Speaker 1>and all these massive platforms, this is a surveillance system, folks.

1:26:33.920 --> 1:26:36.160
<v Speaker 1>They are they are taking all of your data and

1:26:36.240 --> 1:26:38.040
<v Speaker 1>doing things with it, and you don't know what it

1:26:38.320 --> 1:26:42.160
<v Speaker 1>is and the month you are the product as in

1:26:42.360 --> 1:26:46.160
<v Speaker 1>your information, your personal habits, your likes, your wants, your needs,

1:26:47.080 --> 1:26:49.880
<v Speaker 1>and you're giving it to a third party. Now, it's

1:26:49.920 --> 1:26:53.240
<v Speaker 1>okay if you're okay with that, but it should at

1:26:53.280 --> 1:26:56.759
<v Speaker 1>least be open and honest. The fact that Google's motto

1:26:56.960 --> 1:27:01.280
<v Speaker 1>until pretty recently was don't be evil. I think Google

1:27:01.400 --> 1:27:04.720
<v Speaker 1>doth protest too much. I think Google knew they had

1:27:04.720 --> 1:27:08.920
<v Speaker 1>a problem. But speaking of technology and evil, as some

1:27:09.000 --> 1:27:14.720
<v Speaker 1>of you know, I think that robo calls are the

1:27:14.760 --> 1:27:18.479
<v Speaker 1>most annoying thing happening in the world of technology right now.

1:27:18.520 --> 1:27:22.800
<v Speaker 1>I absolutely hate them. Right it's Susie, Do you know

1:27:22.840 --> 1:27:25.880
<v Speaker 1>that you've qualified for a new tour of the Bubba?

1:27:26.000 --> 1:27:30.439
<v Speaker 1>You know, No, Susie, No, I do not qualify. This

1:27:30.560 --> 1:27:33.400
<v Speaker 1>is not true. This is a lie. You've won a cruise.

1:27:33.520 --> 1:27:36.000
<v Speaker 1>I have not won a cruise. Susie, stop it. Why

1:27:36.000 --> 1:27:38.280
<v Speaker 1>are you such a doubter? Because I know you're lying,

1:27:38.400 --> 1:27:45.040
<v Speaker 1>Susie or whatever your name is that's calling me. There's

1:27:45.080 --> 1:27:47.200
<v Speaker 1>now a new This is a safety tip for all

1:27:47.200 --> 1:27:49.800
<v Speaker 1>of you out there. The Federal Communication Commission has been

1:27:49.840 --> 1:27:52.760
<v Speaker 1>putting out warnings about this for robo callers who do

1:27:52.800 --> 1:27:56.920
<v Speaker 1>what's called a whangeiri scam. I never heard this before.

1:27:56.920 --> 1:28:01.280
<v Speaker 1>A whangeari scam is Japanese for one ring and cut.

1:28:01.880 --> 1:28:04.360
<v Speaker 1>What they do is call you, particularly from a number

1:28:04.360 --> 1:28:08.080
<v Speaker 1>in Sierra Leone or Mauritania. You can see the country

1:28:08.080 --> 1:28:10.160
<v Speaker 1>codes from them two two two or two three two,

1:28:10.680 --> 1:28:12.599
<v Speaker 1>and it's at an odd hour of the night. They

1:28:12.640 --> 1:28:16.479
<v Speaker 1>call once and hang up, and then you think, wow,

1:28:16.560 --> 1:28:18.320
<v Speaker 1>someone's calling me at this hour of the night and

1:28:18.320 --> 1:28:20.679
<v Speaker 1>they hung up like I missed their call. They must

1:28:20.720 --> 1:28:24.080
<v Speaker 1>need to talk to me. You call them back and oh,

1:28:24.120 --> 1:28:31.960
<v Speaker 1>that's right. It's calling into a toll number where you

1:28:32.000 --> 1:28:34.680
<v Speaker 1>will get billed. You will get billed as if you're

1:28:34.680 --> 1:28:39.479
<v Speaker 1>calling a nine hundred number. That's the scam. So not

1:28:39.520 --> 1:28:42.200
<v Speaker 1>only are robo callers annoying and trying to sell products.

1:28:42.280 --> 1:28:45.439
<v Speaker 1>Now they're straight up thieves and people are Look, I

1:28:45.439 --> 1:28:46.800
<v Speaker 1>would fall for this if I ton't know about it.

1:28:46.880 --> 1:28:49.559
<v Speaker 1>People fall for this one all the time, calling you

1:28:49.560 --> 1:28:51.880
<v Speaker 1>from a number you don't know it rings. Once hangs up,

1:28:52.200 --> 1:28:54.519
<v Speaker 1>you figure this must be important. They're calling me at

1:28:54.520 --> 1:28:56.600
<v Speaker 1>an odd hour of the night and you call and

1:28:56.600 --> 1:28:58.040
<v Speaker 1>then they just try to keep you on the phone

1:28:58.080 --> 1:29:00.320
<v Speaker 1>however they can as long as they can, and you

1:29:00.439 --> 1:29:04.639
<v Speaker 1>for it. Robocallers, friends, this is a This is a scourge.

1:29:04.640 --> 1:29:08.960
<v Speaker 1>There should be a bipartisan effort to eradicate robocalls and

1:29:09.040 --> 1:29:12.439
<v Speaker 1>to severely punish and I mean, like I want to

1:29:12.479 --> 1:29:16.880
<v Speaker 1>get I want to get crazy East German stazi on

1:29:16.920 --> 1:29:20.040
<v Speaker 1>these robocallers. Track them down, find him, punish them because

1:29:20.080 --> 1:29:23.680
<v Speaker 1>they need to be stopped. This evening, we are in

1:29:23.760 --> 1:29:27.439
<v Speaker 1>the presence of a true legend, an extraordinary athlete who

1:29:27.439 --> 1:29:31.839
<v Speaker 1>has transformed golf and achieved new levels of dominance. Tiger

1:29:31.840 --> 1:29:36.479
<v Speaker 1>Woods is a global symbol of American excellence, devotion, and drive.

1:29:36.800 --> 1:29:42.439
<v Speaker 1>Tiger endured knee surgery and four excruciating back surgeries. I

1:29:42.520 --> 1:29:45.519
<v Speaker 1>know that you remember too. That's not good, but it

1:29:45.680 --> 1:29:50.040
<v Speaker 1>ended up good, including a spinal fusion. In two thou seventeen,

1:29:50.400 --> 1:29:53.880
<v Speaker 1>he fell from number one in the world rankings to

1:29:54.280 --> 1:29:58.360
<v Speaker 1>one thousand, one hundred and ninety ninth. I don't believe

1:29:58.479 --> 1:30:00.679
<v Speaker 1>that even if he had one leg, I don't believe

1:30:00.720 --> 1:30:04.759
<v Speaker 1>that Tiger's injuries were so profound that for two years

1:30:04.840 --> 1:30:08.040
<v Speaker 1>he could barely swing a club. As Tiger said, there

1:30:08.120 --> 1:30:10.760
<v Speaker 1>was a point in time I didn't know if I'd

1:30:10.800 --> 1:30:14.040
<v Speaker 1>ever do this again, if he'd ever play again. But

1:30:14.160 --> 1:30:17.920
<v Speaker 1>Tiger fought through the terrible pain, and he fought all

1:30:17.960 --> 1:30:23.000
<v Speaker 1>the way back to the Summit of Gold. People love

1:30:23.040 --> 1:30:28.120
<v Speaker 1>a comeback. Trump, I think, in particular, loves a comeback.

1:30:28.160 --> 1:30:31.040
<v Speaker 1>I think actually the in the Art of the Deal,

1:30:31.400 --> 1:30:34.120
<v Speaker 1>there's on the front cover that made me something about,

1:30:34.240 --> 1:30:36.799
<v Speaker 1>you know, the way to make a great comeback, which

1:30:36.840 --> 1:30:39.840
<v Speaker 1>ties into it's not a secret that Trump had tremendous

1:30:40.920 --> 1:30:44.479
<v Speaker 1>financial difficulties back in the eighties and the nineties as

1:30:44.479 --> 1:30:48.080
<v Speaker 1>a real estate investor and casino operator. I will say,

1:30:48.120 --> 1:30:49.880
<v Speaker 1>I don't know how it's possible to lose money running

1:30:49.880 --> 1:30:54.200
<v Speaker 1>a casino. It's like a license to run a ATM machine.

1:30:54.280 --> 1:30:56.679
<v Speaker 1>But he did lose money doing it. I guess there's

1:30:56.680 --> 1:30:59.080
<v Speaker 1>stuff I don't know about the casino business right now,

1:30:59.120 --> 1:31:01.720
<v Speaker 1>somebody who listens in, that's like bucket's very hard. You

1:31:01.760 --> 1:31:06.400
<v Speaker 1>don't understand. Okay, fine, but President Trump gave the Medal

1:31:06.400 --> 1:31:11.599
<v Speaker 1>of Freedom to Tiger Woods and none other then Nobel

1:31:11.720 --> 1:31:14.680
<v Speaker 1>Prize Laureate, which really makes you think twice about how

1:31:14.720 --> 1:31:21.360
<v Speaker 1>important and profound the Nobel Prizes. Paul Krugman shared this quote.

1:31:21.400 --> 1:31:24.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm old enough to remember when presidential Medals of Freedom

1:31:24.000 --> 1:31:27.240
<v Speaker 1>were given for showing courage and making sacrifices on behalf

1:31:27.240 --> 1:31:30.639
<v Speaker 1>of the nation in the world. Tiger Woods hits golf

1:31:30.760 --> 1:31:35.120
<v Speaker 1>balls for money. That's from Paul Krugman, New York Times

1:31:35.120 --> 1:31:39.759
<v Speaker 1>op ed columnist and overall curmudgeon who's wrong about everything,

1:31:39.840 --> 1:31:44.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, leftist curmudgeon who really hasn't had a good

1:31:44.080 --> 1:31:46.000
<v Speaker 1>idea from what I've seen in the last twenty years.

1:31:46.880 --> 1:31:53.200
<v Speaker 1>He seems to forget that the mental freedom went to

1:31:53.439 --> 1:31:56.479
<v Speaker 1>Arnold Palmer in two thousand and four. George W. Bush

1:31:56.479 --> 1:31:59.160
<v Speaker 1>gave that one, Jack Nicholas in two thousand and five,

1:32:00.080 --> 1:32:04.439
<v Speaker 1>Charlie Seaford in two thousand and fourteen Obama gave that one.

1:32:05.960 --> 1:32:10.559
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, so you have people here who are getting

1:32:10.640 --> 1:32:16.240
<v Speaker 1>the you know, getting the Presidential Medal of Freedom and

1:32:16.400 --> 1:32:18.519
<v Speaker 1>they're golfers. In fact, there are other people. I think

1:32:18.520 --> 1:32:22.800
<v Speaker 1>there's been some actors. And you know, here's my thing

1:32:22.800 --> 1:32:25.080
<v Speaker 1>about this, I don't really care who gets the Presidential

1:32:25.120 --> 1:32:29.040
<v Speaker 1>Medal of Freedom. I kind of think the whole thing is,

1:32:29.240 --> 1:32:32.519
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, like trophies for adults who cares. Really,

1:32:32.840 --> 1:32:35.200
<v Speaker 1>it doesn't really strike me, especially when you're giving it

1:32:35.240 --> 1:32:39.080
<v Speaker 1>to people of cultural note and people that are you know,

1:32:39.160 --> 1:32:43.320
<v Speaker 1>civilians that are doing things that are entertaining interesting worthwhile

1:32:43.400 --> 1:32:46.439
<v Speaker 1>inspiring whatever whatever it may be. But can we at

1:32:46.520 --> 1:32:49.400
<v Speaker 1>least just have criticism of Trump that's based in some reality.

1:32:49.439 --> 1:32:54.400
<v Speaker 1>Can we not have people saying that Trump is a

1:32:54.520 --> 1:32:58.120
<v Speaker 1>bad guy and doing bad things because he does exactly

1:32:58.160 --> 1:33:01.640
<v Speaker 1>what his predecessors have done. Wouldn't that be nice if

1:33:01.640 --> 1:33:03.840
<v Speaker 1>we could just have that as a rule. But the

1:33:03.840 --> 1:33:06.000
<v Speaker 1>Paul Krugman's of the world, if they're going to criticize

1:33:06.040 --> 1:33:09.559
<v Speaker 1>Trump and act like he unprecedented, Remember they used to

1:33:09.560 --> 1:33:11.000
<v Speaker 1>say that all the time, They say it less now

1:33:11.040 --> 1:33:14.160
<v Speaker 1>because they kept on finding out it. It wasn't unprecedented.

1:33:14.200 --> 1:33:17.040
<v Speaker 1>Every president before this president has done something very similar.

1:33:17.880 --> 1:33:20.560
<v Speaker 1>I'll leave you with this. Here's Tiger Woods in a

1:33:21.000 --> 1:33:23.640
<v Speaker 1>grateful I'm not a golf fan, but I like a

1:33:23.680 --> 1:33:26.639
<v Speaker 1>comeback story too, So we can have a little moment

1:33:26.680 --> 1:33:31.479
<v Speaker 1>of moment of zen here with Tiger Woods enjoying the

1:33:31.520 --> 1:33:33.040
<v Speaker 1>experience that he had. I know this was a few

1:33:33.120 --> 1:33:35.160
<v Speaker 1>days ago, but we didn't talk about it here play nineteen.

1:33:35.520 --> 1:33:38.680
<v Speaker 1>I just want to say, this has been an unbelievable

1:33:38.680 --> 1:33:43.960
<v Speaker 1>experience and to have the support that I've had for

1:33:44.000 --> 1:33:47.240
<v Speaker 1>all these years, some of you from my entire life,

1:33:47.960 --> 1:33:50.240
<v Speaker 1>and some of you for more than half of my life.

1:33:50.800 --> 1:33:53.040
<v Speaker 1>You've seen the good and the bad, the highs and

1:33:53.120 --> 1:33:55.400
<v Speaker 1>the lows, and I would not be in this position

1:33:55.479 --> 1:33:58.200
<v Speaker 1>without all of your help. In ninety seven, yes I

1:33:58.280 --> 1:34:02.320
<v Speaker 1>won the Masters, and hugging my dad and my mom.

1:34:02.600 --> 1:34:05.320
<v Speaker 1>My dad's no longer here, about my mom's here. I

1:34:05.439 --> 1:34:08.160
<v Speaker 1>love your mom. Thank you. You know it was a

1:34:08.240 --> 1:34:11.000
<v Speaker 1>nice moment for the guy. Look, he's he's made mistakes,

1:34:11.120 --> 1:34:13.639
<v Speaker 1>no question about it. He's but he's paid some. He's

1:34:13.640 --> 1:34:17.959
<v Speaker 1>paid the price monetarily and otherwise. Miraka loves a comeback.

1:34:18.520 --> 1:34:20.840
<v Speaker 1>Trump loves a comeback. I love a comeback. So I'm

1:34:20.880 --> 1:34:25.680
<v Speaker 1>glad that Tiger managed it. And now we'll do some

1:34:25.800 --> 1:34:38.120
<v Speaker 1>roll call rock and roll. Fellow patriots, we made ours

1:34:38.120 --> 1:34:53.440
<v Speaker 1>go up to eleven. It's time for roll call. Indeed,

1:34:53.479 --> 1:34:59.719
<v Speaker 1>it is it's time for roll call. Um, let's get

1:34:59.800 --> 1:35:03.000
<v Speaker 1>in to it, shall we? First? Oh Facebook dot com

1:35:03.000 --> 1:35:06.200
<v Speaker 1>slash Buck Sexton if you want to be part of

1:35:06.200 --> 1:35:08.719
<v Speaker 1>the action, as you know, And just to reminder, folks,

1:35:08.760 --> 1:35:12.240
<v Speaker 1>next week I will be spending some time in the

1:35:12.240 --> 1:35:15.120
<v Speaker 1>People's Republic of China as opposed to the People's Republic

1:35:15.120 --> 1:35:19.840
<v Speaker 1>of DC. So we are lining up a rock star

1:35:20.080 --> 1:35:23.120
<v Speaker 1>group of guest hosts for you. But I'll be out

1:35:23.160 --> 1:35:26.920
<v Speaker 1>for the week and we're gonna have assuming we get

1:35:26.960 --> 1:35:30.760
<v Speaker 1>everybody slotted in properly and according to their schedules, we

1:35:30.760 --> 1:35:33.720
<v Speaker 1>should be having. Well, we don't know everybody, yets. I

1:35:33.680 --> 1:35:36.040
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't say, but I think certainly Raheem Kassam, Harland Hill,

1:35:36.200 --> 1:35:38.840
<v Speaker 1>Ben Wein Gardner. We got a whole bunch of folks,

1:35:38.920 --> 1:35:42.360
<v Speaker 1>so it's gonna be fun. Rachel writes, Hey, Buck, you

1:35:42.400 --> 1:35:45.559
<v Speaker 1>ask for a book recommendation. I have one. I know

1:35:45.800 --> 1:35:47.840
<v Speaker 1>you like history and was wondering if you've heard or

1:35:47.880 --> 1:35:51.800
<v Speaker 1>read the book The Silk Roads by Peter Franco Pan.

1:35:52.479 --> 1:35:56.599
<v Speaker 1>It's a great read. I have not and that sounds awesome.

1:35:56.960 --> 1:35:59.360
<v Speaker 1>Rachel and I just wrote it down because that sounds

1:35:59.400 --> 1:36:03.640
<v Speaker 1>like a perfect thing to read on the plane to China.

1:36:04.080 --> 1:36:05.880
<v Speaker 1>You have a China. You have a China, drop mark.

1:36:05.920 --> 1:36:07.720
<v Speaker 1>Don't be shy about it. By the way, if you

1:36:07.800 --> 1:36:11.840
<v Speaker 1>ever want to throw, you've got it there. It's it's

1:36:11.840 --> 1:36:16.120
<v Speaker 1>in front of you. There we go. Don't ever be

1:36:16.240 --> 1:36:19.640
<v Speaker 1>during roll call. Don't be shy with those drops. Stetson,

1:36:20.280 --> 1:36:23.240
<v Speaker 1>cool name, Hi again, Buck. You made me think of

1:36:23.320 --> 1:36:26.719
<v Speaker 1>something last night. Even if Congress succeeded somehow and impeaching

1:36:26.720 --> 1:36:29.479
<v Speaker 1>and removing Trump from office, that wouldn't bar him from

1:36:29.560 --> 1:36:32.760
<v Speaker 1>running in twenty twenty. The twenty second Amendment doesn't prevent it.

1:36:32.800 --> 1:36:36.799
<v Speaker 1>In orders anything an article too apparently interesting. Huh well, Stetson,

1:36:36.920 --> 1:36:42.120
<v Speaker 1>I I suppose that's true, but I think he would

1:36:42.160 --> 1:36:44.120
<v Speaker 1>be very hard for a president who had his own

1:36:44.160 --> 1:36:47.400
<v Speaker 1>party go along with removing him from office to run

1:36:47.439 --> 1:36:51.760
<v Speaker 1>and win. But I think that that is I guess

1:36:51.760 --> 1:36:54.120
<v Speaker 1>you're correct. You could be removed from office and then

1:36:54.120 --> 1:37:00.240
<v Speaker 1>technically run again. Lowell. All right, Buck, I listen into

1:37:00.360 --> 1:37:03.559
<v Speaker 1>your podcast every day. You are, in my opinion, the

1:37:03.560 --> 1:37:05.639
<v Speaker 1>most honest provider of the news of the day. Thank

1:37:05.680 --> 1:37:08.719
<v Speaker 1>you well, Lowell. In my opinion, you have by far

1:37:08.960 --> 1:37:13.840
<v Speaker 1>the most wise and excellent taste in podcasts. I drive

1:37:13.840 --> 1:37:15.360
<v Speaker 1>a one hundred fifty two hundred miles a day and

1:37:15.400 --> 1:37:18.519
<v Speaker 1>live deep in the country of northeastern Michigan. I'm out

1:37:18.520 --> 1:37:20.559
<v Speaker 1>of the range of conservative radio here. But I also

1:37:20.680 --> 1:37:23.360
<v Speaker 1>quit listening to broadcast news ten years ago. Got tired

1:37:23.400 --> 1:37:25.720
<v Speaker 1>of being told what to think. I just want the

1:37:25.760 --> 1:37:27.880
<v Speaker 1>news one time and not all day long. I'm so

1:37:27.960 --> 1:37:29.960
<v Speaker 1>much less stressed than happier in life in general. Tell

1:37:30.000 --> 1:37:33.400
<v Speaker 1>everyone to turn off the broadcast news, just listen to

1:37:33.479 --> 1:37:37.280
<v Speaker 1>your podcast. The hardest part of my day is when

1:37:37.320 --> 1:37:39.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm in a customer's home and they have CNN or

1:37:39.520 --> 1:37:43.240
<v Speaker 1>MSNBC on. Oh the horror. I get caught laughing at

1:37:43.240 --> 1:37:45.160
<v Speaker 1>the stupidity that comes out of their mouths, or grumbling

1:37:45.200 --> 1:37:48.080
<v Speaker 1>under my breath a bit shields hie ps. I love

1:37:48.080 --> 1:37:51.000
<v Speaker 1>the new web page layout and the Beard kudos. Thank

1:37:51.040 --> 1:37:55.000
<v Speaker 1>you so much, Lowell. Appreciate it, my friend, and I

1:37:55.040 --> 1:37:57.200
<v Speaker 1>agree with you that folks should just stop watching broadcast

1:37:57.240 --> 1:38:00.280
<v Speaker 1>news and they should listen to the Bucks. Next in

1:38:00.320 --> 1:38:03.759
<v Speaker 1>show that is That is the answer to the question

1:38:03.800 --> 1:38:07.240
<v Speaker 1>that we are posing to ourselves here, Jeff writes, awesome

1:38:07.320 --> 1:38:09.920
<v Speaker 1>radio book. Really like hearing your background experience applied to

1:38:09.920 --> 1:38:13.000
<v Speaker 1>current topics. Shields High, Thank you, Jeff. Yeah, I didn't

1:38:13.040 --> 1:38:15.120
<v Speaker 1>go to like journalism school, and just I just want

1:38:15.120 --> 1:38:17.280
<v Speaker 1>to be a journalist and I just want to report

1:38:17.360 --> 1:38:20.680
<v Speaker 1>and be like a reporter. No. I I was going

1:38:20.720 --> 1:38:22.360
<v Speaker 1>to be a government guy, and then I was going

1:38:22.400 --> 1:38:25.280
<v Speaker 1>to be a private sector making money guy, and then

1:38:25.280 --> 1:38:27.840
<v Speaker 1>all of a sudden became a media guy. So kind

1:38:27.840 --> 1:38:32.200
<v Speaker 1>of just go where the wind takes me. Christopher. Right, So,

1:38:32.400 --> 1:38:35.519
<v Speaker 1>I'm not sure if this is how you do roll call. Well, Christopher,

1:38:35.600 --> 1:38:37.400
<v Speaker 1>you're fighting out now. If you're listening that it is.

1:38:37.800 --> 1:38:40.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm on the left coast, I know, but I'm a

1:38:40.640 --> 1:38:43.479
<v Speaker 1>podcast listener. I'm upset about those god awful commercials that

1:38:43.520 --> 1:38:45.400
<v Speaker 1>came out of nowhere. I know you need advertising, but

1:38:45.479 --> 1:38:47.599
<v Speaker 1>can you do something about this? I would even pay

1:38:47.680 --> 1:38:50.519
<v Speaker 1>to avoid them, Shields High. Well, Christopher, you know, maybe

1:38:50.520 --> 1:38:54.599
<v Speaker 1>at some point we'll go to a paid subscription podcast model.

1:38:54.600 --> 1:38:56.800
<v Speaker 1>If enough folks were interested in that, I'd be happy

1:38:56.800 --> 1:38:59.599
<v Speaker 1>to do that. I think that would be that would

1:38:59.640 --> 1:39:01.439
<v Speaker 1>be great in a lot of ways, and do some extras.

1:39:01.439 --> 1:39:04.760
<v Speaker 1>But we're We're working on all kinds of plans. I

1:39:04.840 --> 1:39:07.160
<v Speaker 1>will it is duly noted and everyone listening to the

1:39:07.200 --> 1:39:09.000
<v Speaker 1>show has certainly heard that. It has noted that the

1:39:09.040 --> 1:39:12.519
<v Speaker 1>commercials are not what you are liking to hear on

1:39:12.560 --> 1:39:16.040
<v Speaker 1>the podcast, And maybe we'll do a subscription. I was thinking,

1:39:16.920 --> 1:39:18.439
<v Speaker 1>and if I got enough people interested in this, I

1:39:18.439 --> 1:39:20.479
<v Speaker 1>would just do a subscription that was specifically for a

1:39:20.479 --> 1:39:23.000
<v Speaker 1>Shields High and that was like history and those kind

1:39:23.040 --> 1:39:25.200
<v Speaker 1>of deep dives. It wouldn't need that many people that

1:39:25.240 --> 1:39:27.479
<v Speaker 1>would want to subscribe to make it make it worthwhile

1:39:27.520 --> 1:39:31.559
<v Speaker 1>from a production standpoint. You know, we got to I

1:39:31.560 --> 1:39:33.960
<v Speaker 1>don't know, a couple of thousand folks. I think even

1:39:34.000 --> 1:39:37.400
<v Speaker 1>that would probably be worthwhile. Which is a tiny, tiny,

1:39:37.439 --> 1:39:40.320
<v Speaker 1>tiny fraction of how many people are listening to this.

1:39:40.880 --> 1:39:43.920
<v Speaker 1>You know, it is less than less than a one

1:39:44.080 --> 1:39:45.800
<v Speaker 1>That is less than one percent of who was listening

1:39:45.800 --> 1:39:48.880
<v Speaker 1>to this show every day. So I got to figure

1:39:48.920 --> 1:39:51.400
<v Speaker 1>that out. I gotta take a look and to see

1:39:51.880 --> 1:39:55.520
<v Speaker 1>if that's a possibility. I like the digital world endless possibilities,

1:39:55.560 --> 1:39:57.639
<v Speaker 1>although people have to get used to if you want

1:39:57.640 --> 1:40:00.760
<v Speaker 1>certain content in the digital realm, you've got support either.

1:40:00.880 --> 1:40:03.200
<v Speaker 1>It's like artists, my friend. You know, someone had to

1:40:03.240 --> 1:40:07.280
<v Speaker 1>pay Michelangelo's bills. You know Michelangelo needed pasta to eat too.

1:40:08.640 --> 1:40:11.560
<v Speaker 1>Did I just compare myself doing history podcast to Michelangelo?

1:40:11.600 --> 1:40:15.599
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. I leave that to you, David riots Buck.

1:40:15.840 --> 1:40:18.479
<v Speaker 1>I'm Oss, been a fan since the beginning. I used

1:40:18.479 --> 1:40:19.800
<v Speaker 1>to listen to you when I was serving as a

1:40:19.920 --> 1:40:23.120
<v Speaker 1>US naval attache in Tunisia, and still do now that

1:40:23.120 --> 1:40:24.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm retired and live in Jerusalem. Can you please do

1:40:24.920 --> 1:40:28.559
<v Speaker 1>a deep dive on the Wigers and PRC re education

1:40:28.680 --> 1:40:33.439
<v Speaker 1>camps People's Republic of China. That is Thanks David, Well, David,

1:40:33.479 --> 1:40:36.160
<v Speaker 1>thank you for being Oss. It's an honor. You know.

1:40:36.160 --> 1:40:39.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm approaching now. We're not quite at a decade of

1:40:39.280 --> 1:40:41.920
<v Speaker 1>the Bucks Exton Show, but we're getting into the in

1:40:41.960 --> 1:40:45.320
<v Speaker 1>the realm of we'll have to have some real thought

1:40:45.360 --> 1:40:47.599
<v Speaker 1>about where we'll do a live event for ten years

1:40:47.640 --> 1:40:50.720
<v Speaker 1>of the Bucks Exton Show. I think we're at year

1:40:50.840 --> 1:40:53.479
<v Speaker 1>eight now, so it's coming up on us pretty quickly.

1:40:54.240 --> 1:40:57.880
<v Speaker 1>And as for the Wigers and re education camps to

1:40:57.920 --> 1:41:00.880
<v Speaker 1>the People's Republic of China, I like that idea as

1:41:00.920 --> 1:41:04.920
<v Speaker 1>a topic. I just think that I probably should wait

1:41:05.760 --> 1:41:09.280
<v Speaker 1>to do a deep dive on weager oppression until I

1:41:09.360 --> 1:41:13.320
<v Speaker 1>come back from China. If that's okay, I'm gonna I'm

1:41:13.360 --> 1:41:16.479
<v Speaker 1>gonna not poke that bear or the dragon if you

1:41:16.520 --> 1:41:20.120
<v Speaker 1>will before I head over there. I'm just going as

1:41:20.120 --> 1:41:22.679
<v Speaker 1>a tourists, just going to hang out, do some things,

1:41:22.720 --> 1:41:25.160
<v Speaker 1>see some sights, you know, come out to the coast

1:41:25.200 --> 1:41:29.840
<v Speaker 1>that a few lefts. That is the plan. But thank

1:41:29.840 --> 1:41:34.639
<v Speaker 1>you so much, David. Eric has written me this. This

1:41:34.760 --> 1:41:37.880
<v Speaker 1>military officer was one of the best Air Force officers ever.

1:41:38.560 --> 1:41:42.200
<v Speaker 1>He was instrumental in planning Operation Bolow in Vietnam, that

1:41:42.280 --> 1:41:45.919
<v Speaker 1>Delta decisive air to air combat blow against the Miggs

1:41:46.080 --> 1:41:51.599
<v Speaker 1>in Vietnam fighter pilot the Memoirs of legendary Ace Robin Olds.

1:41:51.720 --> 1:41:54.320
<v Speaker 1>I will also write this one down. Eric. I've never

1:41:54.360 --> 1:41:55.920
<v Speaker 1>heard of it, but it sounds cool and if you

1:41:55.960 --> 1:42:03.040
<v Speaker 1>recommend it, I will check it out. In Rights WHOA Kevin?

1:42:04.880 --> 1:42:08.040
<v Speaker 1>This is? This is long, so I'm not gonna get

1:42:08.040 --> 1:42:10.360
<v Speaker 1>to this right now, but I will read it. I promise.

1:42:11.240 --> 1:42:15.320
<v Speaker 1>Here we go. Michael writes Buck, I'm sorry, my friend.

1:42:15.320 --> 1:42:18.800
<v Speaker 1>I no longer believe that all these left wing politicians

1:42:18.880 --> 1:42:23.040
<v Speaker 1>and bureaucrats will face justice unless something big changes and

1:42:23.080 --> 1:42:25.080
<v Speaker 1>I don't think that anything is really going to change

1:42:25.160 --> 1:42:28.280
<v Speaker 1>shields High Michael, I agree with you. I don't think

1:42:28.280 --> 1:42:32.200
<v Speaker 1>that there's going to be a reckoning in terms of

1:42:32.280 --> 1:42:36.400
<v Speaker 1>consequences for the various Deep State actors and people that

1:42:36.439 --> 1:42:41.439
<v Speaker 1>were working so hard to destroy, undermine Trump's campaign and

1:42:41.520 --> 1:42:46.479
<v Speaker 1>then destroy Trump's campaign or his presidency. Rather, I don't

1:42:46.479 --> 1:42:48.120
<v Speaker 1>think that those people are going to be held to

1:42:48.160 --> 1:42:52.680
<v Speaker 1>account in any serious way. And I do not mislead you,

1:42:52.760 --> 1:42:54.479
<v Speaker 1>and I do not need to leave this audience by

1:42:54.520 --> 1:42:56.600
<v Speaker 1>saying things that I know who get people riled up

1:42:56.600 --> 1:43:00.559
<v Speaker 1>and get attention, but I think aren't true. Though. Who

1:43:00.640 --> 1:43:04.559
<v Speaker 1>are OSS know that I was saying right away after

1:43:04.680 --> 1:43:07.240
<v Speaker 1>Romney lost the twenty twelve election that you can forget

1:43:07.240 --> 1:43:11.080
<v Speaker 1>about any real justice for what happened in Benghazi because

1:43:11.200 --> 1:43:13.960
<v Speaker 1>the people that are responsible for it in charge, and

1:43:14.120 --> 1:43:15.840
<v Speaker 1>that's just the way it went. I said this, people

1:43:15.880 --> 1:43:17.720
<v Speaker 1>got mad, and he said no, buck the hearings and

1:43:17.760 --> 1:43:22.160
<v Speaker 1>Trey Gaudy and it nope, nope. Hillary got away with it.

1:43:22.720 --> 1:43:25.760
<v Speaker 1>No real consequences for her didn't even factor into her

1:43:26.080 --> 1:43:28.800
<v Speaker 1>twenty sixteen campaign all that much, which was pretty but

1:43:28.920 --> 1:43:32.080
<v Speaker 1>that's because the emails. I think were Benghazi Hillary became

1:43:32.240 --> 1:43:35.439
<v Speaker 1>lock her Up Hillary because of the emails. But I

1:43:35.760 --> 1:43:39.439
<v Speaker 1>don't think that you'll see justice meeted out against the

1:43:39.439 --> 1:43:42.040
<v Speaker 1>individuals responsible. But that doesn't mean that there won't be

1:43:42.080 --> 1:43:46.080
<v Speaker 1>some measure of justice achieved. If we find out the truth,

1:43:46.120 --> 1:43:49.840
<v Speaker 1>then at least the American people know, or those in

1:43:49.880 --> 1:43:53.240
<v Speaker 1>America who have an open mind to the truth will

1:43:53.280 --> 1:43:58.280
<v Speaker 1>know what really happened and can maybe bring some electoral

1:43:58.320 --> 1:44:01.240
<v Speaker 1>consequences to the party that was responsible for it, which

1:44:01.240 --> 1:44:03.040
<v Speaker 1>as we know is the left and the Democrat Party.

1:44:04.040 --> 1:44:06.160
<v Speaker 1>But no, I don't think I think they're all gonna skate.

1:44:06.280 --> 1:44:10.760
<v Speaker 1>I even think somehow Andy McCabe lying under oath doesn't matter.

1:44:10.840 --> 1:44:14.160
<v Speaker 1>They're gonna find a way to just stretch that out.

1:44:14.200 --> 1:44:17.000
<v Speaker 1>And you know, he's he's a martyr to the anti

1:44:17.040 --> 1:44:21.320
<v Speaker 1>Trump left, so they'll let him. They'll let him skate,

1:44:21.560 --> 1:44:26.920
<v Speaker 1>and they really will. We have Dave Writes got a

1:44:27.000 --> 1:44:30.040
<v Speaker 1>question if a professional baseball player says he did not

1:44:30.080 --> 1:44:31.439
<v Speaker 1>want to go to the White House because of what

1:44:31.479 --> 1:44:35.439
<v Speaker 1>the President did not do to help Puerto Rico. FEMA

1:44:35.520 --> 1:44:37.439
<v Speaker 1>can do so much. They're only allowed to bring it

1:44:37.479 --> 1:44:40.240
<v Speaker 1>back to the original state before the emergency. So my

1:44:40.360 --> 1:44:42.519
<v Speaker 1>question is if a person has on a one time

1:44:42.600 --> 1:44:45.040
<v Speaker 1>with the president chooses to boycott the sports dinner with

1:44:45.080 --> 1:44:47.479
<v Speaker 1>the president, that does not make sense. He has the

1:44:47.520 --> 1:44:50.799
<v Speaker 1>opportunity to talk to Trump and confront him about the situation.

1:44:50.960 --> 1:44:54.720
<v Speaker 1>Why not take the opportunity, Oh, Dave, because people like

1:44:54.840 --> 1:44:56.880
<v Speaker 1>to do a lot of virtue signaling, and you know, oh,

1:44:56.960 --> 1:44:59.160
<v Speaker 1>they won't talk to they won't talk to this president.

1:44:59.200 --> 1:45:01.479
<v Speaker 1>Oh no, not this president. Of this president so bad

1:45:01.520 --> 1:45:06.000
<v Speaker 1>and scary. Ah. Yeah, that's that's the basics of it.

1:45:06.160 --> 1:45:10.160
<v Speaker 1>That's the more or less. Let's see we have here.

1:45:10.240 --> 1:45:14.680
<v Speaker 1>Michelle writes, horse Racing Nation has a film of the

1:45:14.760 --> 1:45:18.639
<v Speaker 1>Kentucky Derby. An angle work clearly shows war a Will's

1:45:18.720 --> 1:45:22.360
<v Speaker 1>foot got in between Maximum Security's back feet and caused

1:45:22.400 --> 1:45:24.680
<v Speaker 1>him to veer to the side. The stewards might not

1:45:24.720 --> 1:45:26.600
<v Speaker 1>have had access to this angle. This proved it is

1:45:26.640 --> 1:45:29.479
<v Speaker 1>war of Will that should have been disqualified. This is

1:45:29.520 --> 1:45:31.840
<v Speaker 1>why the jockey of War of Will did not lodge

1:45:31.840 --> 1:45:37.040
<v Speaker 1>a complaint. I personally will never watch another horse race again.

1:45:37.120 --> 1:45:39.960
<v Speaker 1>We need to all protest this until Maximum Securities win

1:45:40.080 --> 1:45:44.519
<v Speaker 1>is restored. According to Bob Baffair for Baffort, I don't

1:45:44.520 --> 1:45:48.599
<v Speaker 1>know he's the best bafforld in the Baffort. Thank you. Producer.

1:45:48.640 --> 1:45:50.920
<v Speaker 1>Mike's actually an American, he knows these things. He's the

1:45:50.920 --> 1:45:53.200
<v Speaker 1>best three year old in the country. And the disqualification

1:45:53.360 --> 1:45:55.839
<v Speaker 1>was completely wrong. Mike. What do you make of Michelle's

1:45:56.840 --> 1:45:59.759
<v Speaker 1>missive here she spot on and exactly what I said yesterday.

1:45:59.800 --> 1:46:02.320
<v Speaker 1>When mainstream media says that the day all got it right,

1:46:02.360 --> 1:46:05.240
<v Speaker 1>that means that they got it wrong. And she's right,

1:46:05.439 --> 1:46:08.160
<v Speaker 1>they got it wrong. He should have won. There we go.

1:46:08.479 --> 1:46:11.160
<v Speaker 1>Now it's between Michelle and producer Mike. Now it's gospel.

1:46:11.200 --> 1:46:13.960
<v Speaker 1>Now we know they got it wrong. Exactly. That's gonna

1:46:13.960 --> 1:46:17.000
<v Speaker 1>be it for today's edition of The Buck Sexton Show.

1:46:17.160 --> 1:46:20.240
