1
00:00:01,120 --> 00:00:03,960
Speaker 1: Welcome everybody to the Friday edition of the Clay Travis

5
00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:18,239
Speaker 1: great time out in Steamboat Steamboat Springs also known as

6
00:00:18,280 --> 00:00:21,800
Speaker 1: Steamboat I think in Colorado, and he'll be back Monday.

7
00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:25,120
Speaker 1: So next week we'll be all fired up. The Dynamic

Speaker 1: Duo back in action. Speaking of action this week, and

9
00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:33,519
Speaker 1: I'll be out training in undisclosed location through some firearms

10
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:37,840
Speaker 1: trading with a former SILKEAM six operator. So looking forward

11
00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:40,000
Speaker 1: to that. I'll tell you all about it when I

12
00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:42,920
Speaker 1: get back. I'm going with my brothers, kind of a

13
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:49,200
Speaker 1: guy's training trip. Before I am being trained to burp

14
00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:52,599
Speaker 1: a tiny baby and put diapers on. So this weekend

15
00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:56,160
Speaker 1: running around in the shoot house clearing rooms. In a

16
00:00:56,200 --> 00:01:00,600
Speaker 1: few weekends, I'm on diaper change duty for all long time.

17
00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:03,960
Speaker 1: So there we go. Exciting things happening in my world,

18
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:07,320
Speaker 1: Exciting things happening across the country and around the world too.

19
00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:09,720
Speaker 1: I want to dive into it. Speak you know what,

20
00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:13,320
Speaker 1: let's have some funks. It's Friday, speaking of the world.

21
00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:16,880
Speaker 1: There's a little place, it's actually giant, not little, a

22
00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:21,560
Speaker 1: place called Greenland. Now, you may have not heard very

23
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:24,640
Speaker 1: much about it until Donald Trump came along. Perhaps you've

24
00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:27,320
Speaker 1: been told the old story that they called it Iceland

25
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 1: even though it had far less ice, and Greenland even

26
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:33,560
Speaker 1: though it had far less green, kind of mixing things

27
00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:35,240
Speaker 1: up for people. I don't even I think that's an

28
00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:38,240
Speaker 1: urban legend. But whatever that, people say that about it.

29
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:43,600
Speaker 1: And Trump is not backing away from this one on Greenland.

30
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:47,080
Speaker 1: He's happened quite a week. This has cut one talking

31
00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:51,920
Speaker 1: about this large island that he thinks should be our island.

32
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:52,400
Speaker 1: Play it.

33
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:56,440
Speaker 2: We really need Greenland for national security. It's very important.

34
00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:59,240
Speaker 2: You know. We have a couple of bases on Greenland already,

35
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:02,080
Speaker 2: and we have quite a few soldiers and maybe you'll

36
00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:04,200
Speaker 2: see more and more soldiers go there. And I don't know,

37
00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:05,480
Speaker 2: what do you think about that beat?

38
00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:09,480
Speaker 1: So don't answer to that pace don't.

39
00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:12,800
Speaker 2: We have we have bases that we have quite a

40
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:14,000
Speaker 2: few soldiers in Greenland.

41
00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:20,079
Speaker 1: Look, it's not a crazy idea. We're not going We're

42
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:22,320
Speaker 1: not going to invade. And people say stuff like that,

43
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:24,160
Speaker 1: Give me a break. It's you know, get a sense

44
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:28,799
Speaker 1: of humor, But why shouldn't we think more about this?

45
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:32,560
Speaker 1: You know, if Guam can be accepted by everybody as

46
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:35,640
Speaker 1: a US territory in the middle of nowhere in the

47
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:38,840
Speaker 1: South Pacific, and it's a it's an important US territory

48
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:44,720
Speaker 1: by the way, for strategic reasons, we all know, why

49
00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:48,240
Speaker 1: why can't Greenland possibly be in the mix if they

50
00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:52,880
Speaker 1: agree to it. Trump pointed this one out. He said, look, Denmark,

51
00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:57,119
Speaker 1: which is currently administering Greenland, what does that even really mean?

52
00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:02,239
Speaker 1: Denmark is not exactly next door, So maybe this makes

53
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:05,119
Speaker 1: more sense than people are willing to think the first

54
00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:05,960
Speaker 1: time around. Plate two.

55
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:08,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, ships all over the place, and we have to

56
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 2: have protection.

57
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 1: So we're gonna have to make a deal.

58
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:13,960
Speaker 2: On that, and Denmark is not able to do that.

59
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:17,400
Speaker 2: You know, Denmark's very far away and really has nothing

60
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:20,200
Speaker 2: to do. What happens a boat landed that two hundred

61
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:22,760
Speaker 2: years ago or something, and they say they have rights

62
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:24,799
Speaker 2: to it. I don't know if that's true. I don't

63
00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:27,680
Speaker 2: think it is actually, But we've been dealing with Denmark,

64
00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:29,920
Speaker 2: we've been dealing with Greenland, and we have to do it.

65
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:33,120
Speaker 2: We really needed finational security, and I think that's why

66
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:35,160
Speaker 2: NATO might be have to get involved.

67
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:40,800
Speaker 1: He said, Look, it's an important strategic location. There are

68
00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:45,120
Speaker 1: very few people who live there on this giant land mass,

69
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:47,120
Speaker 1: which is a lot of glaciers and ice, but there's

70
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:50,200
Speaker 1: land too, and there's a lot of minerals and resources

71
00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:54,280
Speaker 1: when you get under that ice. But also given the

72
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:59,480
Speaker 1: increasing focus on the race to the Arctic that is

73
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:02,240
Speaker 1: been underway for a long time but is heating up

74
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:06,320
Speaker 1: more these days, it makes some sense. So this is

75
00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:08,520
Speaker 1: not a crazy idea Canada the fifty first state. That's

76
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:11,320
Speaker 1: not going to happen. He's trolling you, and I know

77
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:15,800
Speaker 1: we speak Trump, we know when he's serious. The Greenland thing,

78
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:19,240
Speaker 1: I don't think is likely, but it is not impossible.

79
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:22,400
Speaker 1: And we'll see how much time and focus he wants

80
00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:25,040
Speaker 1: to put on this. If you look at I just

81
00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:28,640
Speaker 1: take a little step back for some historical perspective, If

82
00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:32,680
Speaker 1: you look at some of the best moves made by

83
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:39,239
Speaker 1: any American statesman in the history of our country, really

84
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:43,760
Speaker 1: they were land purchases, and you know, bringing land into

85
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:50,200
Speaker 1: these United States. Louisiana purchased greatest land deal I think

86
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:52,520
Speaker 1: of all time. Even Trump would be like better than

87
00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:55,040
Speaker 1: any of my land deals is the greatest land deal

88
00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:59,680
Speaker 1: of all time. And then of course other things. Alaska

89
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:03,120
Speaker 1: Seward's icebox, they called it. Turned out he was pretty smart,

90
00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:06,159
Speaker 1: and other places, other territories that we've picked up along

91
00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:09,280
Speaker 1: the way. You know, this is it's something to think

92
00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:10,800
Speaker 1: about it. It's just we're having a little fun on

93
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:12,600
Speaker 1: our Friday, all right. You want to get into the

94
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:15,680
Speaker 1: really important stuff. You joined me for the really important

95
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:17,440
Speaker 1: Stufflet's get into the really importance. So first of all,

96
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:22,000
Speaker 1: Senate Majority, I'm sorry, Senate Democrat leader, not majority leader.

97
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:26,040
Speaker 1: Senate Democrat Leader Chuck Schumer is saying that he is

98
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:31,200
Speaker 1: going to vote to keep the government open. And he's

99
00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:33,880
Speaker 1: he's getting a lot of heat from his own side

100
00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:38,360
Speaker 1: on this one, but he understands the direction the wind

101
00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:41,320
Speaker 1: is blowing in right now. Politically. Let's hear cut ten.

102
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:45,120
Speaker 1: Here's Chuck Schumer telling everybody that, look, we got to

103
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:46,200
Speaker 1: avoid the shutdown place.

104
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:48,920
Speaker 3: I supported what the House did to vote against this

105
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:51,880
Speaker 3: bill universally, but that didn't cause a shutdown. It's a

106
00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:54,560
Speaker 3: different it's different in the Senate. And I knew people

107
00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:56,880
Speaker 3: were going to disagree with me, but I felt so

108
00:05:57,120 --> 00:06:00,800
Speaker 3: strongly that the shutdown would be the greatest disaster we

109
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:05,600
Speaker 3: face with these arrogant, arrogant autocrats, that we had to

110
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:09,520
Speaker 3: avoid the shutdown and fight on many of the other things,

111
00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:11,400
Speaker 3: every other issue that we had.

112
00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:15,520
Speaker 1: He's saying, look, this is the thing we got to

113
00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:17,960
Speaker 1: do here. I don't like it, but this is where

114
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:19,799
Speaker 1: we are. We got to keep the government open, because

115
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:23,520
Speaker 1: he knows that the American people have seen enough of

116
00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:28,080
Speaker 1: Democrats saying, how dare you even consider shutting down the government.

117
00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:31,320
Speaker 1: You can't do that, you can't do that, And now

118
00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:33,640
Speaker 1: they're going to try to turn around and play it

119
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:38,600
Speaker 1: on the other side. AOC who has the advantage of

120
00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:42,640
Speaker 1: not having to do to do politics, but really to

121
00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:43,600
Speaker 1: do social media.

122
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:44,160
Speaker 4: Right.

123
00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:46,560
Speaker 1: She doesn't have to pass legislation, she doesn't have to

124
00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 1: think about bills and laws. She just has to do

125
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:53,720
Speaker 1: like Instagram videos and like tweet and go on MSNBC

126
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:57,760
Speaker 1: even though no one's watching. And she is very upset

127
00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:02,640
Speaker 1: about humor backing down and being willing to back the

128
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:04,359
Speaker 1: GOP bill. This is eleven hit it.

129
00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:09,120
Speaker 5: This Republican extreme spending bill removes all of the guardrails

130
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:12,239
Speaker 5: and all of the accountability measures to ensure that money

131
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,360
Speaker 5: is being spent in the way that Congress has directed

132
00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:18,400
Speaker 5: for it to be spent. This turns the federal government

133
00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:22,120
Speaker 5: into a slush fund for Donald Trump and Elon Musk.

134
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:26,680
Speaker 5: It sacrifices congressional authority, and it is deeply partisan. And

135
00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:31,640
Speaker 5: so to me, it is almost unthinkable why Senate Democrats

136
00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:36,280
Speaker 5: would vote to hand the few pieces of leverage that

137
00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:38,920
Speaker 5: we have away for free when we've been sent here

138
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:42,640
Speaker 5: to protect Social Security, protect Medicaid, and protect Medicare.

139
00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:48,360
Speaker 1: Elections have consequences, AOC. That's really the problem here in

140
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:52,760
Speaker 1: the minority. The last election, the American people spoke loudly

141
00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:58,200
Speaker 1: and clearly about which party they want to be in control,

142
00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:02,120
Speaker 1: and the GEO is going forward with the agenda. So

143
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:07,000
Speaker 1: I think this is a very good thing. I think

144
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:10,520
Speaker 1: this is something well. If there had been a shutdown,

145
00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:13,560
Speaker 1: Tchumor would have gotten the blame for it. The Democrats

146
00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:16,440
Speaker 1: would have been even more messed up than they are.

147
00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:21,320
Speaker 1: Is that even really possible? My old this cut seventeen,

148
00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:28,400
Speaker 1: My old table mate at Real News, se cup, old

149
00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:31,240
Speaker 1: friend of mine. She's even saying on CNN and she

150
00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:34,800
Speaker 1: like the Democrats total mess right now play it.

151
00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:38,320
Speaker 6: It is shocking how Democrats have not figured out what

152
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:41,080
Speaker 6: is coming down the pike. It is March, you know

153
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:43,400
Speaker 6: the spending fight is coming, and you know Republicans have

154
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:46,599
Speaker 6: a majority. I don't understand for all the chaos on

155
00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:49,920
Speaker 6: the right. Democrats are a mess. They haven't figured out.

156
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:52,560
Speaker 6: It's not how they're gonna fight Donald Trump yet, they

157
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:55,880
Speaker 6: haven't even figured out if they're gonna fight Donald Trump's agenda.

158
00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:57,720
Speaker 6: They've got to get it together and get on the

159
00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:00,880
Speaker 6: same page and figure out a roadmap go because the

160
00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:03,120
Speaker 6: chas is going to be daily, there's going to be

161
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:07,000
Speaker 6: incoming for months, and they are not on the same

162
00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:07,520
Speaker 6: page at all.

163
00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:07,960
Speaker 5: That's clear.

164
00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:11,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, they got nothing right. I mean I did. I

165
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:13,720
Speaker 1: don't think the Republicans are in chaos at all. Really.

166
00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:17,600
Speaker 1: I think that this administration is operating as close to

167
00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:21,680
Speaker 1: a Swiss watch as anyone could imagine, given the scope

168
00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:24,600
Speaker 1: of what they're trying to accomplish. And part of the

169
00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:29,960
Speaker 1: strategy is everything everywhere, all at once, and it's working

170
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:34,440
Speaker 1: because Democrats are in complete disarray, a total mess. They

171
00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:37,320
Speaker 1: don't know what to do, so much so that some

172
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:40,640
Speaker 1: of them are calling in sick and I'm not exaggerating,

173
00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:44,040
Speaker 1: or maybe they're calling in for a vacation. Here is

174
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:49,040
Speaker 1: MSNBC's This is twenty four MSNBC's Lawrence O'Donnell. He just

175
00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:51,400
Speaker 1: can't handle it anymore. Democrats are getting the butts kicked

176
00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:54,920
Speaker 1: so badly. He's taking a vacation because he just they

177
00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:56,520
Speaker 1: we've broken and play it.

178
00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:59,200
Speaker 7: Well, here's the thing. This is day fifty two. I

179
00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:01,240
Speaker 7: thought it was day nine. It turns out it's day

180
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:06,880
Speaker 7: fifty two, Rachel. And I'm exhausted at day fifty two.

181
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:11,680
Speaker 7: And so I I'm gonna take next week off. And

182
00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:13,400
Speaker 7: I'm telling you that now because I know you don't

183
00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:15,040
Speaker 7: like it when I just drift away and I don't,

184
00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:18,040
Speaker 7: but just taking next week off then then I could

185
00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:18,559
Speaker 7: come back.

186
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:24,199
Speaker 1: Honestly, the smart Democrat pundits right now should probably all

187
00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:28,320
Speaker 1: take a vacation for a week or five or more

188
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:35,880
Speaker 1: because they just have absolutely no way of opposing, slowing down,

189
00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:40,120
Speaker 1: or doing anything to stop the Trump agenda, with the

190
00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:44,360
Speaker 1: exception of we're going to get into this. These judges,

191
00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:50,680
Speaker 1: the judges are a big problem right now, these universal injunctions.

192
00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:55,079
Speaker 1: It is unconstitutional, it is overreach, it is madness. So

193
00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:58,960
Speaker 1: that's MSNBC. The pundits, the media apparatus of the Democrats

194
00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:03,559
Speaker 1: all completely I would say, largely irrelevant at this point.

195
00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:06,120
Speaker 1: That don't really they'll come back, I know, but right

196
00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:09,120
Speaker 1: now they are. It's like they're all on vacation, or

197
00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:11,120
Speaker 1: they'd be better off if they were all on vacation

198
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:15,400
Speaker 1: because they can't make sound arguments. They look like deer

199
00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:18,600
Speaker 1: in the headlights. But they're relying a lot. The Democrats

200
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:23,319
Speaker 1: are relying almost entirely on the activist judges, all Obama

201
00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:28,800
Speaker 1: and Biden appointees, these activist federal judges who are just

202
00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:33,880
Speaker 1: overriding and overruling presidential prerogative on a regular basis. Now,

203
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:39,160
Speaker 1: this is a central fight for the Trump administration and

204
00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:43,480
Speaker 1: really for the country, because you're seeing this tested in

205
00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:46,439
Speaker 1: a variety of ways. If the President of the United

206
00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:52,440
Speaker 1: States isn't really the CEO of the executive branch, meaning

207
00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:57,160
Speaker 1: that he can fire people, he can make changes to personnel,

208
00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:02,400
Speaker 1: then where is what's the point of the election? If

209
00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:05,520
Speaker 1: they're on autopilot. If Congress gets to say, here's this thing,

210
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:08,280
Speaker 1: no one's in charge of it, but we funded it,

211
00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:10,280
Speaker 1: and no one can make any changes to it in

212
00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:14,480
Speaker 1: the executive branch, it's on some weird autopilot swamp tour.

213
00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:19,080
Speaker 1: Why do we have elections? What is the purpose of

214
00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:23,000
Speaker 1: going through the billions of dollars spent for this last

215
00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:28,840
Speaker 1: election cycle? If DC runs itself, essentially, it's just endless

216
00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:33,680
Speaker 1: funding from Congress, hurtling us over the cliff of fiscal insanity,

217
00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:35,680
Speaker 1: and anyone who tries to stop it is told, no,

218
00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:39,000
Speaker 1: you're not allowed to stop it. The system is self aware.

219
00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:42,120
Speaker 1: The system is Skynet from terminator, and it will destroy

220
00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:44,320
Speaker 1: us all before you're allowed to do anything to it.

221
00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:47,640
Speaker 1: This is a big deal, and I'll get it to

222
00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:49,840
Speaker 1: some of the specifics of this here coming up in

223
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:53,280
Speaker 1: just a moment. While violence against the Jewish people continues

224
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:55,000
Speaker 1: in Israel and the rest of the Middle East, our

225
00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:58,040
Speaker 1: Christian brothers and sisters in the region are also under attack.

226
00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:01,040
Speaker 1: Hundreds of Syrian Christians have and brutally killed in the

227
00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:04,400
Speaker 1: past week. Entire families, including women and children, are being slaughtered.

228
00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:07,199
Speaker 1: Israel is the Middle East's only democracy, but it's also

229
00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:10,120
Speaker 1: the only nation in the region with a growing Christian population.

230
00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:13,080
Speaker 1: Israeli Christians are free to worship in the Holy Land,

231
00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:16,640
Speaker 1: but persecution against Christians throughout the Middle East continues. To grow.

232
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:20,560
Speaker 1: The International Fellowship of Christians and Jews stands with Christians

233
00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:23,120
Speaker 1: in Syria as well as our Christian brothers and sisters

234
00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:27,400
Speaker 1: throughout the Middle East. IFCJ provides life saving security essentials

00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:05,240
Speaker 1: Welcome back into Clay and Buck. I had mentioned this

247
00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:07,600
Speaker 1: in the discussion we had with the White House Deputy

248
00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:11,480
Speaker 1: Press Secretary and Kelly. There's all this reporting out there

249
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:20,040
Speaker 1: from various news outlets about Trump invoking the Alien Enemies

250
00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:25,960
Speaker 1: Act of seventeen ninety eight to carry out deportations to Guantanamo.

251
00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:29,000
Speaker 1: Let me read you a little bit of this because

252
00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:32,800
Speaker 1: I read it and I say, sounds like a great idea.

253
00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:37,080
Speaker 1: This is from CBS News. President Trump is planning to

254
00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:40,320
Speaker 1: invoke a wartime law known as the Alien Enemies Act

255
00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:43,160
Speaker 1: of seventeen ninety eight as soon as Friday, meaning today,

256
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:49,240
Speaker 1: to authorize the summary deportation of some migrants, including to

257
00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:55,280
Speaker 1: Guantanamo Bay, escalating his government wide immigration crackdown. Multiple US

258
00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:59,040
Speaker 1: officials familiar with the plant told CBS News the two

259
00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:03,000
Speaker 1: hundred and twenty seven year old law gives presidents the

260
00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:09,880
Speaker 1: extraordinary power to order the arrest, detention, and deportation of

261
00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:13,840
Speaker 1: non citizens who are fourteen years or older and come

262
00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:18,280
Speaker 1: from countries staging an invasion or predatory incursion of the US.

263
00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:24,040
Speaker 1: Mister Trump is expected to cite the eighteenth century statute

264
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:29,360
Speaker 1: to order these swift attention and deportation of suspected members

265
00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:33,800
Speaker 1: of the Trende Aragua, a Venezuelan gang with prison origins

266
00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:39,480
Speaker 1: that his administration has designated a foreign terrorist organization. Officials

267
00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:42,360
Speaker 1: have made preparations to send suspected gang members to the

268
00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:46,160
Speaker 1: US naval base at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, soon after mister

269
00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:50,040
Speaker 1: Trump invokes the Alien Enemies Act. At mister Trump's direction,

270
00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:53,000
Speaker 1: officials have been detaining some migrants awaiting deportation at the

271
00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:56,000
Speaker 1: naval base, though the wholding facilities were left empty earlier

272
00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:59,680
Speaker 1: this week. Okay, those subject to the Alien Enemies Act

273
00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:01,480
Speaker 1: would not be allowed to have a cord hearing or

274
00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:04,680
Speaker 1: an asylum interview, as they would be processed under an

275
00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:09,360
Speaker 1: emergency wartime authority. They would be eligible to be detained

276
00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:12,280
Speaker 1: and deported with little to no do process under Title fifty.

277
00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:19,720
Speaker 1: Sounds great to me. What's the problem? It's a presidential authority.

278
00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:23,240
Speaker 1: Notice how they have to report this in such a

279
00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:26,960
Speaker 1: way that this is on the book. Still, this is

280
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:29,880
Speaker 1: on the book. Still the president still has this power. Now,

281
00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:32,040
Speaker 1: I want to compare the way that CBS. That's why

282
00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:33,520
Speaker 1: I want to give you the background of that, but

283
00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:37,680
Speaker 1: also the way CBS this eighteenth century statute. Do you

284
00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:42,840
Speaker 1: think CBS was doing that kind of massaging of the

285
00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:46,720
Speaker 1: issue when they were using the Logan Act as a

286
00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:50,200
Speaker 1: pretext to go after General Flynn as the incoming Trump

287
00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:55,920
Speaker 1: national security advisor. No, right, the Logan Act was suddenly

288
00:16:56,560 --> 00:17:00,520
Speaker 1: very important to all these anti Trump voices in the media. Oh,

289
00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:03,640
Speaker 1: the Logan Act. Meanwhile, in its two hundred plus years

290
00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:06,240
Speaker 1: of existence, it has never once been used to prosecute

291
00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:09,800
Speaker 1: anybody successfully and put them in prison. I think there

292
00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:13,240
Speaker 1: have been a couple of times it was even used

293
00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:17,520
Speaker 1: to bring charges. No one ever convicted. The law is

294
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:19,840
Speaker 1: just kind of an old, dusty law that no one

295
00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:23,520
Speaker 1: takes seriously until you have to jam up somebody in

296
00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:26,000
Speaker 1: Trump world, and then you pretend, and then you're James Comy,

297
00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:29,119
Speaker 1: sank to Comy, and you use it to spring a

298
00:17:29,119 --> 00:17:31,280
Speaker 1: trap on the incoming National security Advisor. One of the

299
00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:35,320
Speaker 1: dirtiest download things, one of the worst things they did

300
00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:38,600
Speaker 1: to Trump in that first administration. Pretend it had the

301
00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:43,560
Speaker 1: FBI director pretend that a phone call between the Russian

302
00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:47,560
Speaker 1: ambassador and the incoming National security advisor for a new

303
00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:50,919
Speaker 1: administration is some kind of huge national security concerned and

304
00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:54,360
Speaker 1: he's running his own foreign policy when you look back

305
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:57,960
Speaker 1: at that. But Comy's a bad guy. He's just a

306
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:01,960
Speaker 1: bad guy. And I know that's not a surprise to you.

307
00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:06,480
Speaker 1: You know that too, But who does that to be

308
00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:09,200
Speaker 1: the FBI director and abuse your power in that way. Well,

309
00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:13,840
Speaker 1: thankfully we've got Cash Battel as director and now Dan

310
00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:17,720
Speaker 1: Bongino as deputy director, and things are going to get

311
00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:20,560
Speaker 1: cleaned up and be a whole lot better than they were.

312
00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:24,639
Speaker 1: But the invoking of the Alien Enemies Act of seventeen

313
00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:27,800
Speaker 1: ninety eight. This will be interesting because it is on

314
00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:33,199
Speaker 1: the books. The President has designated groups that are transnational

315
00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:38,480
Speaker 1: narco terrorist organizations like Trenda Ragua as a foreign terrorist organization.

316
00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:41,639
Speaker 1: So if you are part of a foreign terrorist organization,

317
00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:44,200
Speaker 1: if you were part of Al Qaeda, wouldn't you be

318
00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:48,119
Speaker 1: able to be deported back to your country of origin

319
00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:54,040
Speaker 1: under this law? It was used in the past. The

320
00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:56,560
Speaker 1: government used it to surveill and detain Italian, German, and

321
00:18:56,640 --> 00:19:03,879
Speaker 1: Japanese immigrants in World War Two. So the invocation to

322
00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:06,520
Speaker 1: target migrants from countries which US is not actively at

323
00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:11,000
Speaker 1: war as almost certain to face legal challenges. They're saying, okay, well,

324
00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:15,280
Speaker 1: so that means that a terrorist entity operating in the US,

325
00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:18,159
Speaker 1: because we're not at war with the country that the

326
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:22,560
Speaker 1: terrorists are originating from, we can't send them back. We'll

327
00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:25,480
Speaker 1: see how that one goes. I think you're certain to

328
00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:30,199
Speaker 1: have some of these activist anti Trump judges shut this

329
00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:31,960
Speaker 1: down if in fact they do this. I think they're

330
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:34,719
Speaker 1: going to do this. I think they're preparing to do this.

331
00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:36,720
Speaker 1: I think that they're going to use the Guantanamo facility

332
00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:39,200
Speaker 1: and this is one of those things where they should

333
00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:40,399
Speaker 1: just do it and do as much of it as

334
00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:44,280
Speaker 1: they can. And we start to get to this place

335
00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:47,440
Speaker 1: where how long does the executive branch listen to one

336
00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:53,520
Speaker 1: random federal judge somewhere in overriding policy. You'll note that

337
00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:57,560
Speaker 1: Trump in the first administration, every time, even when it

338
00:19:57,600 --> 00:20:02,160
Speaker 1: was the most obvious bad faith judicial overreach, every time

339
00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:04,320
Speaker 1: there was any kind of a challenge the administration from

340
00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:05,760
Speaker 1: a federal judge, you know what they did. You know

341
00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:11,840
Speaker 1: what Trump did, The tyrant, the authoritarian hitler said okay,

342
00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:14,840
Speaker 1: we'll see you in court. And that's where he completely

343
00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:19,119
Speaker 1: abided by the system at every turn, even when the

344
00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:21,760
Speaker 1: other side was using the system in bad faith to

345
00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:23,359
Speaker 1: just slow him down. They knew they were going to

346
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:24,879
Speaker 1: get overturned on a bunch of the things that they

347
00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:28,399
Speaker 1: and they did. They are the so called Muslim ban, right,

348
00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:31,480
Speaker 1: and then they Trump ended up winning on that. Oh

349
00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:34,640
Speaker 1: he can't do that wasn't a Muslim ban, but whatever.

350
00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:37,719
Speaker 1: They just don't want him to be able to do anything.

351
00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:43,760
Speaker 1: And that's the operating authority, or that's the operating ideology,

352
00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:47,439
Speaker 1: and they just abuse their authority to that end. That

353
00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:51,240
Speaker 1: is absolutely what we see happening here. So yeah, the

354
00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:54,439
Speaker 1: Alien Enemies Act of seventeen ninety eight. I think this

355
00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:58,080
Speaker 1: would be a strong move because you have to use

356
00:20:58,119 --> 00:21:01,960
Speaker 1: the authorities that the government, the executive branch already has

357
00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:05,639
Speaker 1: to the absolute maximum. If you're going to wait around

358
00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:09,520
Speaker 1: for Congress to work together on some of this stuff,

359
00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:11,600
Speaker 1: it's never going to happen. And that's what Democrats want.

360
00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:17,560
Speaker 1: They want the continued destruction, the erosion and eventual destruction

361
00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:22,480
Speaker 1: of our national sovereignty through endless violations of our borders,

362
00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:27,000
Speaker 1: endless violations of our immigration laws. And they don't want

363
00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:30,320
Speaker 1: to protect the American people and the American citizens specifically

364
00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:34,240
Speaker 1: from the predations of groups like MS thirteen and trend Aragua.

365
00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:38,200
Speaker 1: They won't do it. It's in their power to do it,

366
00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:40,200
Speaker 1: just like it was in Joe Biden's power to shut

367
00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:43,840
Speaker 1: down crossings at the border, obviously because Donald Trump has

368
00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:48,000
Speaker 1: done it, but Biden wouldn't use the authority that he had. Right.

369
00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:50,439
Speaker 1: It's a bit like if you have a sheriff in

370
00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:54,200
Speaker 1: your town, and the sheriff has the right to arrest

371
00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:58,440
Speaker 1: people for whatever it may be. If a sheriff just

372
00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:00,800
Speaker 1: chooses not to arrest anybody. You don't need a new law,

373
00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:03,840
Speaker 1: you just need a new sheriff. Well, there's a new

374
00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:06,680
Speaker 1: sheriff in town now. His name is Donald Trump. Also,

375
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:09,159
Speaker 1: want to get to the situation of NATO here for

376
00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:15,320
Speaker 1: a moment, because the the if the Russia Ukraine War

377
00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:19,600
Speaker 1: is able to be brought to a ceasefire by Donald Trump,

378
00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:23,000
Speaker 1: honestly anytime in his first year, and I mean maybe

379
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:25,880
Speaker 1: even in his first six months in office, it will

380
00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:28,800
Speaker 1: feel almost like a miracle because there was nothing, There

381
00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:33,000
Speaker 1: was not even any movement toward this when Biden was

382
00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:37,239
Speaker 1: in office. So you will watch, you will see this.

383
00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:39,159
Speaker 1: I want you to pay close attention to the coverage

384
00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:41,679
Speaker 1: of this at every step because ending a war and

385
00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:44,600
Speaker 1: saving a lot of lives in the process, as I

386
00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:46,919
Speaker 1: have said to you, should be something that everyone is

387
00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:49,119
Speaker 1: on board for. Every American should be on board for

388
00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:52,439
Speaker 1: that right. But no, maybe not because you know, we

389
00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:55,159
Speaker 1: have to see about the territory that's gonna end up

390
00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:59,159
Speaker 1: in which sides hands and Slava Ukrainian all this stuff.

391
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:02,840
Speaker 1: It's really just about they don't want Trump to have

392
00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:05,720
Speaker 1: the win, as you know, they don't want Donald Trump

393
00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:07,960
Speaker 1: to be in a position where he can say, hey,

394
00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:10,520
Speaker 1: not only am I setting up a booming economy and

395
00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:16,600
Speaker 1: securing the border, I'm ending wars that Democrats blundered our

396
00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:19,960
Speaker 1: ally into with Ukraine, or at least were unable to

397
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:24,680
Speaker 1: stop our ally from getting pulled into. And beyond that,

398
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:28,760
Speaker 1: they really just want to make sure that Donald Trump

399
00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:33,320
Speaker 1: doesn't get the w That's it. Everything is just about

400
00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:36,280
Speaker 1: stopping him. On NATO. You'll notice that there are a

401
00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:40,640
Speaker 1: lot of people who think themselves really erudite on the

402
00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:46,080
Speaker 1: issue of national security foreign policy, and they always say

403
00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:50,320
Speaker 1: that Trump is so so destructive to NATO. This has

404
00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:52,159
Speaker 1: been a thing that has been said about him the

405
00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:56,920
Speaker 1: whole time. Well, no, maybe he just sees a system

406
00:23:57,280 --> 00:23:59,880
Speaker 1: that isn't operating the way that it should, and he's

407
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:03,840
Speaker 1: these member countries that aren't taking the actions that they

408
00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:07,560
Speaker 1: have agreed to take to uphold their end of the bargain.

409
00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:12,960
Speaker 1: NATO Secretary General Mark Ruta had this to say, this

410
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:16,359
Speaker 1: has cut four about what Donald Trump has been able

411
00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:19,159
Speaker 1: to do in just the last few weeks. Listen in

412
00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:20,320
Speaker 1: I must say.

413
00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:24,720
Speaker 4: Tream forty five, you basically you originated effects that in

414
00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:27,560
Speaker 4: Europe you're not spending when you take it to aggregate

415
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:30,800
Speaker 4: seven hundred billion more even defense than when you came

416
00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:32,840
Speaker 4: in office in twenty six and twenty seventy. But that

417
00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:35,080
Speaker 4: was TREAM forty five. But then when you look at

418
00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:37,159
Speaker 4: stream forty seven, to be art, what's happened in the

419
00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:41,160
Speaker 4: last couple of weeks is le League secondary Europeans committing

420
00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:43,800
Speaker 4: to a package of eight hundred billion defense spending. The

421
00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:46,680
Speaker 4: Germans now are potentially up to half a trillion next

422
00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:49,320
Speaker 4: time defense spending. And then of course you had kid

423
00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:52,280
Speaker 4: starming here, the British Prime Minister and others all committing

424
00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:54,359
Speaker 4: to much higher defense spending. If you're not there, you

425
00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:56,200
Speaker 4: need to do more. But I didn't want to work

426
00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:58,000
Speaker 4: to get it with you in a relative to the

427
00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:00,560
Speaker 4: X summer, to make sure that you will from NATO,

428
00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:04,160
Speaker 4: which is infigurated under your leadership.

429
00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:08,879
Speaker 1: Notice you're not hearing a lot of this in the

430
00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:12,280
Speaker 1: commentary circles the New York Times, Washington Posts, all the

431
00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:15,560
Speaker 1: rest of it. Donald Trump, in a matter of weeks

432
00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:22,560
Speaker 1: has helped bring together an eight hundred billion dollar defense

433
00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:29,720
Speaker 1: spending commitment from NATO partners in the European Union, or

434
00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:33,959
Speaker 1: from our European partners in NATO. Eight hundred billion dollars

435
00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:36,800
Speaker 1: that wasn't going to get spent. Now it's getting spent.

436
00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:40,119
Speaker 1: He say, look, you got to up your spending. It

437
00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:43,480
Speaker 1: doesn't make Trump a bad guy or Putin's puppet or

438
00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:47,000
Speaker 1: any of this stuff for him to say that the

439
00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:52,439
Speaker 1: Europeans are allies who have promised to have sufficient spending

440
00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:56,760
Speaker 1: for their own defense. Stop free loading also off of America.

441
00:25:57,359 --> 00:26:01,879
Speaker 1: Stop saying America protect this from Russia and do it themselves.

442
00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:06,399
Speaker 1: Get ready to do it themselves more and more. That

443
00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:09,479
Speaker 1: is absolutely what should be happening here. You know, they

444
00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:15,399
Speaker 1: want to just fund their bloated welfare states. They can

445
00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:18,960
Speaker 1: do that on somebody else's dime, providing their defense umbrella

446
00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:21,960
Speaker 1: for them. Okay, they have to step up. He's right.

447
00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:24,880
Speaker 1: And Trump even said this. He says, look, he wants

448
00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:26,919
Speaker 1: us for NATO to matter, it has to be strong.

449
00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:30,000
Speaker 1: NATO can't be Oh, we can't do anything without America

450
00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:33,159
Speaker 1: because then it's not an alliance. Then it's a dependency.

451
00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:34,840
Speaker 1: This has cut three play.

452
00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:38,879
Speaker 2: You have to keep NATO strong, you have to keep

453
00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:42,160
Speaker 2: it relevant. But the biggest thing we have to worry

454
00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:44,440
Speaker 2: about right now is what's going on right now. I

455
00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:46,240
Speaker 2: think the rest is going to take care of itself.

456
00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:46,840
Speaker 2: I don't see this.

457
00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:47,920
Speaker 1: This was a flu.

458
00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:51,200
Speaker 2: This was something that if we had a competent president,

459
00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:54,000
Speaker 2: it would not have happened. The man was grossly incompetent.

460
00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:59,119
Speaker 1: Yeah, NATO has to be strong, and Biden was grossly incompetent.

461
00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:03,040
Speaker 1: He just would glad hand and have that stupid grin

462
00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:08,680
Speaker 1: and act like he has some foreign policy knowledge that

463
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:11,080
Speaker 1: we all needed, that needed to be imparted upon all

464
00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:13,639
Speaker 1: of us or something. Joe Biden is an absolute clown.

465
00:27:14,119 --> 00:27:18,000
Speaker 1: And that's before the dementia kicked in, and his entire

466
00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:22,000
Speaker 1: record on foreign policy and his record visa v our allies.

467
00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:24,520
Speaker 1: They always say this, our allies are so worried about Trump,

468
00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:25,920
Speaker 1: and then you actually get to sit and talk to

469
00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:28,399
Speaker 1: some of the allies, they go, no, he's right. We

470
00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:31,719
Speaker 1: do need we do need European nations to be more

471
00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:35,480
Speaker 1: capable of defending themselves. The notion that oh, if we

472
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:38,680
Speaker 1: don't keep backing Ukraine forever, Russia is going to roll

473
00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:41,960
Speaker 1: over all of the all of the European countries militarily

474
00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:44,240
Speaker 1: is going to roll tanks through Germany and Poland, and

475
00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:48,240
Speaker 1: that's one insane. It's not gonna happen. But two, if

476
00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:52,160
Speaker 1: that were true, you know what should happen. Europe should

477
00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:55,479
Speaker 1: get its act together and be able to stop Russia

478
00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:57,960
Speaker 1: from doing that. They've got hundreds of millions more people

479
00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:01,760
Speaker 1: and a heck of a lot more money, so you know,

480
00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:04,960
Speaker 1: it shouldn't all fall on us. This is just Trump

481
00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:10,040
Speaker 1: applying common sense to big problems in the world, and

482
00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:13,000
Speaker 1: it's not common. If you hear the DC commentary, it's

483
00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:16,320
Speaker 1: crazy stuff. Okay. Look for a lot of people, the

484
00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:18,200
Speaker 1: end of the week is a time to celebrate with

485
00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:19,840
Speaker 1: a great meal. You know what I had last night?

486
00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:22,479
Speaker 1: True story, Kerry and I actually had burger night here

487
00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:24,879
Speaker 1: and the burgers are from our friends at Good Ranchers.

488
00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:27,080
Speaker 1: Absolutely delicious. I'm gonna tell you what I did. I

489
00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:29,840
Speaker 1: took one Good Ranchers burger and I put a bunch

490
00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:32,639
Speaker 1: of sauteed onions, and then I put another Good Ranchers

491
00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:34,560
Speaker 1: burger on top of it. And then you put a

492
00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:36,520
Speaker 1: little bit of cheese on top and maybe a little

493
00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:39,000
Speaker 1: bit more of those sauted onions. Was it was like

494
00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:42,840
Speaker 1: a burger tower of deliciousness, all from Good Ranchers. The

495
00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:46,280
Speaker 1: meat quality is so high. I'm a big red meat guy,

496
00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:48,960
Speaker 1: I eat red meat two or three times a week. Yes,

497
00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:50,760
Speaker 1: I'm on a fitness journey, but red meat is actually

498
00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:52,120
Speaker 1: good for you. You just got to make sure you

499
00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:54,720
Speaker 1: check the calories on it. Red meat is delicious. Good

00:28:54,800 --> 00:28:59,240

520
00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:02,640
Speaker 1: Welcome to the program. Thanks for being here with us.

521
00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:04,200
Speaker 5: Thanks so much.

522
00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:05,720
Speaker 9: Fuck, I'm so excited to be here. And that's a

523
00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:07,480
Speaker 9: great song you had on in the break by the way,

524
00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:08,239
Speaker 9: I really enjoyed them.

525
00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:10,640
Speaker 1: Well, thank you very much. We try to have the

526
00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:14,520
Speaker 1: good tunes, the good tunes flowing. So a lot going

527
00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:18,440
Speaker 1: on this week and a lot of back and forth. Already,

528
00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:23,120
Speaker 1: Let's start with the economy tariff situation. What should everybody know?

529
00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:26,000
Speaker 1: Because if you you know, when I go to the gym,

530
00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:29,480
Speaker 1: for example, they have these different channels on. They do

531
00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:31,360
Speaker 1: have Fox onto the gym down here because I'm in

532
00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:34,320
Speaker 1: South Florida, but a lot of like the financial channels,

533
00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:37,360
Speaker 1: and it almost feels like they want everybody to panic

534
00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:41,400
Speaker 1: every time the President speaks the word tariff. What should

535
00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:43,800
Speaker 1: everyone know about the plan here and where we're trying

536
00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:44,000
Speaker 1: to go.

537
00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:47,840
Speaker 9: Yeah, so I will share there are three goals for

538
00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:50,479
Speaker 9: these cariffs, right Number one is restrictions. So we are

539
00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:53,840
Speaker 9: helping our domestic industries by pushing these exports, making sure

540
00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:57,440
Speaker 9: that American companies can send made in America goods all

541
00:30:57,480 --> 00:31:00,120
Speaker 9: around the world, making sure we're getting revenue for the

542
00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:03,720
Speaker 9: things we import. And then, most importantly is reciprocity. So

543
00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:07,600
Speaker 9: President Trump, finally, after decades, not just the past four years,

544
00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:10,640
Speaker 9: especially the past four years, but really decades of unfair

545
00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:14,000
Speaker 9: trading practices that have long took advantage of American farmers

546
00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:18,960
Speaker 9: and workers, President Trump is finally saying, look, American farmers, workers,

547
00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:22,880
Speaker 9: manufacturers deserve a level playing field. So these tariffs are

548
00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:26,200
Speaker 9: finally making sure that we are leveling the playing field,

549
00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:29,200
Speaker 9: enacting the same tariffs that these countries around the world

550
00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:32,200
Speaker 9: have imposted on us for years. This makes common sense,

551
00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:35,040
Speaker 9: and it makes sure that American farmers and workers are

552
00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:37,160
Speaker 9: able to send their goods around the world. And by

553
00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:40,400
Speaker 9: the way, those revenues are paying dividends. We had ten

554
00:31:40,560 --> 00:31:44,320
Speaker 9: thousand new manufacturing jobs last month. We have positive job

555
00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:47,320
Speaker 9: growth in the private sector. That's what the American people want,

556
00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:49,959
Speaker 9: That's what we want in this building is a strong

557
00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:52,720
Speaker 9: economy in the private sector that is benefiting from a

558
00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:53,600
Speaker 9: level playing field.

559
00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:58,480
Speaker 1: Finally, what also is is your What is the feeling

560
00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:01,360
Speaker 1: of the President and this White House on how to

561
00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:07,160
Speaker 1: handle the slew of these judicial universal injunctions that have

562
00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:10,080
Speaker 1: come down. I told everybody before you came on an

563
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:15,680
Speaker 1: that the Biden administration had fewer of these against and

564
00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:20,760
Speaker 1: it did some very unconstitutional and just aggressive, and I

565
00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:24,960
Speaker 1: would offer unlawful things in the executive branch, but more

566
00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:28,800
Speaker 1: in one month for Trump than three years of Biden.

567
00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:31,440
Speaker 1: Is the strategy here? Just to take it to the

568
00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:34,320
Speaker 1: Supreme Court? Does the White House say that there may

569
00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:36,800
Speaker 1: be other options down down the road? What should we

570
00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:37,360
Speaker 1: know about this?

571
00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:41,080
Speaker 9: Well, yeah, here's what we know. You're exactly right. There

572
00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:45,080
Speaker 9: were fifteen efforts in February alone by these activist judges

573
00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:49,720
Speaker 9: who seize the president's power of specifically hiring and firing

574
00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:52,560
Speaker 9: from the executive branch. We in this building believe, and

575
00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:55,560
Speaker 9: I think the American people understand that the President has

576
00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:58,720
Speaker 9: the authority to exercise the power of the executive branch.

577
00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:01,600
Speaker 9: That means hiring people, that means firing people, and ultimately

578
00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:05,000
Speaker 9: that means delivering on the American people's mandates to eliminate

579
00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:08,640
Speaker 9: wasteful spending, to shrink our federal workers and ultimately make

580
00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:11,520
Speaker 9: our federal workforce more efficient. That is to the benefit

581
00:33:11,800 --> 00:33:15,800
Speaker 9: of Americans across the country who benefit from federal services. So, yes,

582
00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:19,320
Speaker 9: we have these activist judges enacting these fifteen efforts to

583
00:33:19,520 --> 00:33:22,800
Speaker 9: crample down on the president's authority. We believe that is unjust.

584
00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:25,400
Speaker 9: We believe it is unconstitutional, and we will continue to

585
00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:28,200
Speaker 9: fight back against their efforts to seize the power of

586
00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:30,160
Speaker 9: the President of the United States to run his own

587
00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:30,960
Speaker 9: executive branch.

588
00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:35,160
Speaker 1: We're speaking to a deputy White House Press Secretary, Anna Kelly,

589
00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:41,040
Speaker 1: and CBS News reported this a day ago. Trump to

590
00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:46,200
Speaker 1: invoke wartime Aillien Enemies Act of seventeen ninety eight to

591
00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:50,400
Speaker 1: carry out deportations to Guantanamo. What can you tell us

592
00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:50,800
Speaker 1: about this?

593
00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:53,880
Speaker 9: Well, I won't get ahead of the president's books, but

594
00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:55,640
Speaker 9: here is what I will say. I know there is

595
00:33:55,680 --> 00:33:58,880
Speaker 9: a lot of talk in the mainstream media about suddenly

596
00:33:58,960 --> 00:34:02,400
Speaker 9: they are concerned about mass deportation and the pace of that.

597
00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:05,640
Speaker 9: Guess what, we actually just found out recently that Biden

598
00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:08,440
Speaker 9: was fudging his numbers on these deportations. They were arresting

599
00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:11,000
Speaker 9: aliens and then letting them back into our country. That

600
00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:14,040
Speaker 9: is a universally unpopular policy that is part of what

601
00:34:14,200 --> 00:34:17,640
Speaker 9: helps propel President Trumps to victory in November, because American

602
00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:21,000
Speaker 9: people do not want these migrant criminals invading our country.

603
00:34:21,239 --> 00:34:24,640
Speaker 9: Here's what we do, No buck, we made thirty two thousand,

604
00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:27,920
Speaker 9: over thirty two thousand enforcement arrest in the first fifty

605
00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:30,640
Speaker 9: days of the Trump administration. To put that in perspective,

606
00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:34,200
Speaker 9: we made thirty three thousand I did at large arrests

607
00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:36,719
Speaker 9: in the fiscal year twenty twenty four alone. So I

608
00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:39,800
Speaker 9: won't get ahead of President's any specific policies that he

609
00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:41,840
Speaker 9: plans to impose, but we know that the President is

610
00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:45,840
Speaker 9: delivering on his promise to enact the largest mass deportation

611
00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:49,880
Speaker 9: of migrant criminals in American history to stop the invasion. Because,

612
00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:52,560
Speaker 9: by the way, fourteen thousand of those we've arrested so

613
00:34:52,640 --> 00:34:56,440
Speaker 9: far convicted criminals, almost ten thousand has pending criminal charges.

614
00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:58,840
Speaker 9: So President Trump is doing what he promised. He is

615
00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:02,440
Speaker 9: getting justice for innocent Americans like Lake and Riley, who

616
00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:06,400
Speaker 9: like Joscelyn Nungree, whose lives were brutally taken and unjustly

617
00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:08,440
Speaker 9: taken by migrant criminals who should have never been in

618
00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:09,520
Speaker 9: this country in the first place.

619
00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:13,160
Speaker 1: And I've seen some early data on this, and it's

620
00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:16,320
Speaker 1: actually it actually comes from the Mexican government side of

621
00:35:16,719 --> 00:35:20,759
Speaker 1: the border. But we know that official numbers already for

622
00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:25,479
Speaker 1: illegal migrant crossings are way down. I think ninety five

623
00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:29,400
Speaker 1: percent plus is where they are. But you know in

624
00:35:29,719 --> 00:35:32,640
Speaker 1: a way that it shows that the President is keeping

625
00:35:32,680 --> 00:35:34,840
Speaker 1: his promise to secure the border, and also that the

626
00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:39,319
Speaker 1: previous administration intentionally allowed the border to be wide open

627
00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:42,879
Speaker 1: for anybody to cross over, and that thankfully has come

628
00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:45,440
Speaker 1: to an end. Do we have data yet or can

629
00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:46,359
Speaker 1: you tell us when we will?

630
00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:46,600
Speaker 7: Though?

631
00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:50,719
Speaker 1: On the plummeting fentanyl seizures at the border as well,

632
00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:53,879
Speaker 1: because I know that there's the government of Mexico has

633
00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:58,960
Speaker 1: been claiming that fentanyl seizures are also way down on

634
00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:00,960
Speaker 1: their end of things, right, So do we have some

635
00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:05,719
Speaker 1: data on the drug numbers coming down as well?

636
00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:10,920
Speaker 9: While so CBEF customers and Border Patrol regularly puts out

637
00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:13,239
Speaker 9: these numbers, unfortunately I don't have them in front of me,

638
00:36:13,760 --> 00:36:15,480
Speaker 9: but I'm will be sure to follow up and make

639
00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:17,000
Speaker 9: sure that you can share those with our listeners. But

640
00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:20,400
Speaker 9: I will say, you know, the President has vastly different

641
00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:23,799
Speaker 9: messaging to your point about encounters at the southern border.

642
00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:26,920
Speaker 9: I remember, I'm sure you remember your listeners, remember when

643
00:36:27,120 --> 00:36:29,920
Speaker 9: migrants were coming into the border in early twenty twenty one,

644
00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:32,560
Speaker 9: saying thank you Joe Biden for this open border, for

645
00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:35,439
Speaker 9: with a stroke of his pen, ondoing all the border

646
00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:38,000
Speaker 9: security measures that President Trump took in his first term.

647
00:36:38,239 --> 00:36:41,280
Speaker 9: President Trump is finally sending the message to migrant criminals

648
00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:43,800
Speaker 9: around the world saying do not come here. He is

649
00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:46,320
Speaker 9: telling migrant criminals who already are in the country to

650
00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:48,839
Speaker 9: self support otherwise we will find you and we will

651
00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:52,000
Speaker 9: support you. The messaging is vastly different, and I think

652
00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:53,880
Speaker 9: that is why you see those vastly different numbers. And

653
00:36:53,960 --> 00:36:57,880
Speaker 9: we're also holding the countries like Mexico and Canada accountable

654
00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:00,360
Speaker 9: for the influx of sentinel that has come into our

655
00:37:00,400 --> 00:37:03,160
Speaker 9: country killing Americans. That's part of the terribles as well.

656
00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:06,120
Speaker 9: So all in all, President Trump is finally sending the message,

657
00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:08,719
Speaker 9: after four years of sailor under Joe Biden, that enough

658
00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:11,279
Speaker 9: is enough. We will not accept these migrant criminals entering

659
00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:15,280
Speaker 9: our country killing Americans. We also won't accept this influx

660
00:37:15,320 --> 00:37:18,360
Speaker 9: of sentinel that is also destroying families across the country.

661
00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:21,560
Speaker 1: Can you tell us about this news story. I think

662
00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:25,360
Speaker 1: it was Politico that put it out initially about the

663
00:37:25,440 --> 00:37:30,480
Speaker 1: clearing out of classified by USAID and also the status

664
00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:33,000
Speaker 1: of the USAID building. I think you had to do

665
00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:36,440
Speaker 1: a little cleanup on Aisle fake news on that one

666
00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:38,839
Speaker 1: for Politico and others what actually happened there.

667
00:37:39,960 --> 00:37:43,680
Speaker 9: Yeah, so there was a so as you know, I'm

668
00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:46,640
Speaker 9: sure your listeners know USCID that building is soon to

669
00:37:46,719 --> 00:37:50,200
Speaker 9: be occupied by Customs and Border Patrol thankfully, so the

670
00:37:50,400 --> 00:37:54,480
Speaker 9: USCID employees were naturally clearing out the building, vacating the building,

671
00:37:54,520 --> 00:37:59,040
Speaker 9: and undergoing a very normal process to dispose of classified documents.

672
00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:01,160
Speaker 9: And by the way, as I said in my ex post,

673
00:38:01,200 --> 00:38:03,680
Speaker 9: which I'm sure is what you're pointing out, many of

674
00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:06,680
Speaker 9: these were courtesy copies, So that means these are documents

675
00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:10,600
Speaker 9: that originated from other agencies and were sent to USAID

676
00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:13,040
Speaker 9: by a courtesy And by the way, I'll add, I

677
00:38:13,080 --> 00:38:15,760
Speaker 9: want to shout out fake news NBC. They actually reached

678
00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:17,919
Speaker 9: out to me at three at fifteen for their story

679
00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:21,040
Speaker 9: on this published at three sixteen, and then we had

680
00:38:21,120 --> 00:38:23,520
Speaker 9: to walk or clean up all this fake news that

681
00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:26,680
Speaker 9: was spreading around and sewing chaos really across the country.

682
00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:31,320
Speaker 9: But This was a totally normal process meant to dispose

683
00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:35,279
Speaker 9: of classic copies of classified documents that already existed, by

684
00:38:35,320 --> 00:38:38,240
Speaker 9: the way, electronically as well in secure computer systems. Total

685
00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:39,160
Speaker 9: fake news outrage.

686
00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:44,520
Speaker 1: Do you feel like the media is trying to be

687
00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:48,600
Speaker 1: a little bit less rab it in their anti trumpism?

688
00:38:49,040 --> 00:38:51,719
Speaker 1: In terms of the media that's covering this White House

689
00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:54,160
Speaker 1: day in and day out. Have you have you started

690
00:38:54,200 --> 00:38:59,759
Speaker 1: to see perhaps just an attempt to be more, if

691
00:38:59,840 --> 00:39:02,200
Speaker 1: not even handed, at least more professional in how they

692
00:39:02,280 --> 00:39:05,879
Speaker 1: approach this or are things still pretty rough for those

693
00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:09,480
Speaker 1: who are clearly opposing the president with their coverage?

694
00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:12,560
Speaker 9: You know, Buck, I don't think they know what to

695
00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:15,600
Speaker 9: do with themselves, because we are having fun, truly, we

696
00:39:15,719 --> 00:39:18,400
Speaker 9: are winning every single day, and I think they do

697
00:39:18,719 --> 00:39:22,360
Speaker 9: acknowledge the fact that President Trump not only won the

698
00:39:22,480 --> 00:39:24,919
Speaker 9: election by a landslide, but he won the popular vote.

699
00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:27,920
Speaker 9: He is implementing policies that the American people soundly support,

700
00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:30,080
Speaker 9: and so they can try, they can push their fake

701
00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:32,120
Speaker 9: news narratives, they can try and poke hold and what

702
00:39:32,239 --> 00:39:34,879
Speaker 9: he's doing, but guess what the approval is on our side.

703
00:39:35,120 --> 00:39:38,200
Speaker 9: The American people overwhelmingly support his agenda. They see that

704
00:39:38,280 --> 00:39:40,520
Speaker 9: he is delivering on the promises he made on the

705
00:39:40,560 --> 00:39:43,879
Speaker 9: campaign trail, to restore our economy, to secure the southern border,

706
00:39:44,160 --> 00:39:46,560
Speaker 9: to restore our standing on the world stage. This is

707
00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:49,760
Speaker 9: what the American people want. He is delivering on his promises,

708
00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:51,360
Speaker 9: and I think that fake news don't know what to

709
00:39:51,440 --> 00:39:51,759
Speaker 9: do with it.

710
00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:55,879
Speaker 1: Remarkable. How is it to be right in the center

711
00:39:55,960 --> 00:39:59,200
Speaker 1: of center of all the action here for a presidency

712
00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:03,040
Speaker 1: that is already transformational one month in. I know you're

713
00:40:03,080 --> 00:40:05,840
Speaker 1: super busy, and you say you're having fun. Must be

714
00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:06,680
Speaker 1: exciting stuff.

715
00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:10,040
Speaker 9: It is so exciting. And again, we're winning every single

716
00:40:10,120 --> 00:40:11,719
Speaker 9: day and we're having so much fun. The fake news

717
00:40:11,760 --> 00:40:13,440
Speaker 9: don't know what they know. They don't know how to

718
00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:16,440
Speaker 9: cover it because they're not used to actually covering a

719
00:40:16,520 --> 00:40:19,400
Speaker 9: president who actually does sing every single day. He is

720
00:40:19,480 --> 00:40:22,960
Speaker 9: signing more executive orders than any other president at this

721
00:40:23,160 --> 00:40:26,120
Speaker 9: point in his first or his tec in term. He

722
00:40:26,280 --> 00:40:28,200
Speaker 9: is delivering on the promises he made and it's really fun.

723
00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:29,600
Speaker 9: I'm not sure if you knew this that I was

724
00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:31,840
Speaker 9: involved in the campaign as well, and so I was

725
00:40:31,880 --> 00:40:34,000
Speaker 9: able to be part of all these promises being made.

726
00:40:34,200 --> 00:40:38,280
Speaker 9: Watching the enthusiasm among all these Americans across the country

727
00:40:38,320 --> 00:40:41,960
Speaker 9: who are so excited to finally see change after four

728
00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:45,040
Speaker 9: years of failure. And it's extremely exciting to be part

729
00:40:45,080 --> 00:40:48,680
Speaker 9: of the process in really helping correct all the mistakes

730
00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:49,600
Speaker 9: over the past four years.

731
00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:54,120
Speaker 1: White House DEFU Press Secretary Anna Kelly, come back again soon.

732
00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:55,799
Speaker 1: Thank you so much for being here and keep up

733
00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:56,319
Speaker 1: the great work.

734
00:40:57,280 --> 00:40:58,560
Speaker 9: Thanks so much for us talk soon.

735
00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:02,520
Speaker 1: There's a very telling video that's online, one you want

736
00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:04,720
Speaker 1: to watch. I was there for the event to witness

737
00:41:04,760 --> 00:41:06,600
Speaker 1: a prediction of what may come in the way of

738
00:41:06,640 --> 00:41:09,360
Speaker 1: our financial markets. I want you to watch it this weekend,

739
00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:11,640
Speaker 1: in fact, if you get the chance. While I might

740
00:41:11,680 --> 00:41:13,800
Speaker 1: have helped to organize this online video event, it was

741
00:41:13,840 --> 00:41:17,160
Speaker 1: actually my dad, Mason Sexton Senior, who made the prediction

742
00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:20,759
Speaker 1: regarding the financial markets. This is my father's area of expertise.

743
00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:23,600
Speaker 1: I think you'll find it really interesting and possibly very

744
00:41:23,719 --> 00:41:26,960
Speaker 1: beneficial growing up. I grew up in a household where

745
00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:29,520
Speaker 1: the stock market was a big deal because my dad

746
00:41:29,719 --> 00:41:32,560
Speaker 1: worked in the markets for decades. He created a name

747
00:41:32,600 --> 00:41:34,839
Speaker 1: for himself on Wall Street by his forecast. The most

748
00:41:34,880 --> 00:41:37,960
Speaker 1: notable one was calling the crash of eighty seven. His

749
00:41:38,080 --> 00:41:40,279
Speaker 1: predictions are too numerous to get into here, but he

750
00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:42,319
Speaker 1: called the crash in two thousand and nine as well.

751
00:41:42,480 --> 00:41:45,080
Speaker 1: This is a guy who sees what's coming, and you

752
00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:47,920
Speaker 1: can still see his prediction, his forecast for the future

753
00:41:48,360 --> 00:41:50,520
Speaker 1: when you just go to this website. It's free to watch.

Speaker 1: action based on it. Disruption twenty twenty dot com paid

769
00:42:38,239 --> 00:42:41,560
Speaker 1: so thank you for being here here this week. We've

770
00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:44,480
Speaker 1: got some exciting news about some new affiliates that have

771
00:42:44,600 --> 00:42:46,040
Speaker 1: been joining up as well. I want to just say

772
00:42:46,120 --> 00:42:49,640
Speaker 1: welcome to all of them. We are very excited to

773
00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:52,440
Speaker 1: be able to speak to your audiences. There are dozens

774
00:42:52,480 --> 00:42:54,960
Speaker 1: of them that have joined, so I won't name them

775
00:42:54,960 --> 00:42:56,399
Speaker 1: all right now because off the top of my head

776
00:42:56,440 --> 00:42:58,080
Speaker 1: that's going to be kind of a long list. Which

777
00:42:58,120 --> 00:43:01,120
Speaker 1: is a high class, high class problem. But you know,

778
00:43:01,200 --> 00:43:03,600
Speaker 1: this weekend, I'm doing something pretty interesting. I'm going to

779
00:43:03,640 --> 00:43:07,160
Speaker 1: be heading out to heading out to North Carolina to

780
00:43:07,280 --> 00:43:13,239
Speaker 1: do some training with my brothers and DJ Shipley, who

781
00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:18,920
Speaker 1: is a decorated former Seal Team six operative who we

782
00:43:19,080 --> 00:43:24,200
Speaker 1: will be spending some time just going through tactics and all.

783
00:43:24,880 --> 00:43:27,200
Speaker 1: We're basically showing up saying, DJ, teach us as much

784
00:43:27,239 --> 00:43:30,880
Speaker 1: as you can this weekend about about guns, about tactics,

785
00:43:30,880 --> 00:43:34,920
Speaker 1: about shooting, about marksmanship, you know, about self defense, about

786
00:43:35,520 --> 00:43:37,800
Speaker 1: room clearing. I mean, you know, whatever we've got time for.

787
00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:40,799
Speaker 1: We're just showing up ready to go. And so I'll

788
00:43:40,840 --> 00:43:42,680
Speaker 1: let you I'll let you know how that is next

789
00:43:42,719 --> 00:43:46,560
Speaker 1: week when I get a chance to after I've gotten

790
00:43:46,560 --> 00:43:48,359
Speaker 1: a chance to see for myself. But it's really it's

791
00:43:48,400 --> 00:43:50,160
Speaker 1: fun also to spend some time with the brothers. You know,

792
00:43:50,200 --> 00:43:53,120
Speaker 1: I have a baby coming in less than a month now,

793
00:43:53,600 --> 00:43:56,560
Speaker 1: and so the weekends where I can just take off

794
00:43:56,640 --> 00:43:59,440
Speaker 1: with with the guys, with my two brothers and just

795
00:43:59,560 --> 00:44:03,719
Speaker 1: go and shoot a lot and work on marksmanship and

796
00:44:03,840 --> 00:44:08,040
Speaker 1: work on those basics of firearm skills. It might be

797
00:44:08,040 --> 00:44:10,680
Speaker 1: a little tougher, I might have a lot more diaper

798
00:44:10,800 --> 00:44:13,800
Speaker 1: changing and things like that in my future, but that

799
00:44:13,920 --> 00:44:16,120
Speaker 1: will be a huge blessing and I am looking forward

800
00:44:16,120 --> 00:44:20,160
Speaker 1: to that too. I will say, it is remarkable how

801
00:44:20,280 --> 00:44:22,759
Speaker 1: hard it is to install these car seats in the

802
00:44:22,800 --> 00:44:24,880
Speaker 1: back of cars. I don't know how many of you

803
00:44:25,040 --> 00:44:27,320
Speaker 1: have felt the same way about this. I know a

804
00:44:27,400 --> 00:44:29,280
Speaker 1: lot of you are parents, a lot of your grandparents,

805
00:44:29,280 --> 00:44:33,279
Speaker 1: a lot of you have plenty of kids. But there's

806
00:44:33,320 --> 00:44:35,400
Speaker 1: got to be a better way, you know, There's got

807
00:44:35,520 --> 00:44:37,400
Speaker 1: to be an easier way than what we've got going on.

808
00:44:37,600 --> 00:44:40,960
Speaker 1: You gotta like slide through the and you got anchors

809
00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:43,680
Speaker 1: and you got to slide this. This stuff should be

810
00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:46,520
Speaker 1: so much easier in my mind than it really is.

811
00:44:47,400 --> 00:44:51,239
Speaker 1: So oh oh, that's a great idea. Producer Ali is saying,

812
00:44:51,440 --> 00:44:55,600
Speaker 1: leave me talk back baby advice this weekend and we'll

813
00:44:55,600 --> 00:44:57,040
Speaker 1: get to some of it next week. So on the

814
00:44:57,080 --> 00:45:00,520
Speaker 1: talkback app, or rather on the talkback feature on the

815
00:45:00,640 --> 00:45:04,359
Speaker 1: iHeart Radio app, you can send us. Remember those are

816
00:45:04,440 --> 00:45:06,239
Speaker 1: like voicemails, so you don't have to if you want

817
00:45:06,280 --> 00:45:08,200
Speaker 1: to call live on hold. We love our live callers

818
00:45:08,239 --> 00:45:09,960
Speaker 1: on the phone, but if you don't want to hold,

819
00:45:10,040 --> 00:45:11,440
Speaker 1: you just want to send in your message, you do

820
00:45:11,560 --> 00:45:13,640
Speaker 1: that and it goes into us and we all hear it.

821
00:45:14,120 --> 00:45:17,960
Speaker 1: And I certainly see see or hear every talkback. We

822
00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:19,360
Speaker 1: can't get to all of them on the air, but

823
00:45:19,480 --> 00:45:21,920
Speaker 1: we'll get to as many as we can. So baby

824
00:45:22,200 --> 00:45:25,680
Speaker 1: advice by all means, send it my way and I'll

825
00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:29,080
Speaker 1: let you know how training goes this weekend. Trying to

826
00:45:29,120 --> 00:45:31,120
Speaker 1: work on my skills, just just trying to learn, trying

827
00:45:31,120 --> 00:45:34,560
Speaker 1: to understand more about trying to learn from the best, honestly,

828
00:45:34,640 --> 00:45:38,960
Speaker 1: and that's why we made this weekend happen with DJ Shipley.

829
00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:41,520
Speaker 1: So we'll tell you about that and Clay's back with

830
00:45:41,640 --> 00:45:45,560
Speaker 1: me on Monday. Talk to you then, Shields High
