1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,320 Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Buck 2 00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:07,600 Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. Welcome into the second hour of The 3 00:00:07,640 --> 00:00:11,760 Speaker 1: Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show. We are rocketing through 4 00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:13,480 Speaker 1: the news of the day here, making sure we'd bring 5 00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:15,640 Speaker 1: you all up to speed. We've got coming up in 6 00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:17,880 Speaker 1: the third hour. Just give you a quick little preview 7 00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:21,919 Speaker 1: someone look forward to. We've got a bridge coleby Elbridge Colby, 8 00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:24,439 Speaker 1: old friend of mine from my DC days who was 9 00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:29,080 Speaker 1: at the Pentagon, a brilliant guy on strategy for the 10 00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:32,320 Speaker 1: US in the Pacific, notably with China the taking of 11 00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:36,320 Speaker 1: Taiwan as a possibility here, what would we do if 12 00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:39,720 Speaker 1: the Chinese Communist Party made a move on Taiwan? And 13 00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:42,960 Speaker 1: why should we do it? We'll address those questions come 14 00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:45,280 Speaker 1: up in the third hour of the show, but for 15 00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:48,599 Speaker 1: right now, we have been talking about the border a 16 00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:51,680 Speaker 1: lot here, and one of the reasons for that is 17 00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:55,720 Speaker 1: it's incredibly important. Another reason is that the Democrat Party 18 00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:59,520 Speaker 1: does not want to spend time on this issue. They 19 00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:01,880 Speaker 1: do not want to focus on this because they have 20 00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:05,800 Speaker 1: no good answers for the American people about what's going on. Clay, 21 00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:09,440 Speaker 1: We've been saying now for the last month or so 22 00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 1: that October may be the single highest ever month on 23 00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:16,240 Speaker 1: record for illegal crossings. As I understand it, there are 24 00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:19,920 Speaker 1: still caravans making their way to the border. There are 25 00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:24,720 Speaker 1: day to day crossings all along the border at various points. 26 00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 1: Remember when the weather is a little bit more favorable, 27 00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:30,360 Speaker 1: it's not the debt or the heat of summer, people 28 00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:33,280 Speaker 1: tend to come over in larger numbers. And as we thought, 29 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:39,240 Speaker 1: we have the single highest ever. They're saying nineteen eighty six, 30 00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:41,600 Speaker 1: And we can talk about why that number is so 31 00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:45,400 Speaker 1: important as well since the year nineteen eighty six. But really, 32 00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:47,480 Speaker 1: when you add it all in, especially when you include 33 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:51,480 Speaker 1: get a gotaways and the number of visa overstays if 34 00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:53,800 Speaker 1: you want to include them in the illegal immigrant category, 35 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:56,080 Speaker 1: more legal crossing this year than ever before at the 36 00:01:56,120 --> 00:02:01,880 Speaker 1: southern border one point seven million in fiscal year twenty 37 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:06,240 Speaker 1: twenty one alone under this Biden administration. I think that 38 00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 1: you know you said before in the midterms the Democrats 39 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:13,640 Speaker 1: are heading for an annihilation of sorts that I really 40 00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:16,600 Speaker 1: think so similar to twenty and I hate getting ahead 41 00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:19,160 Speaker 1: of ourselves, right because it's a long year between now 42 00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:22,560 Speaker 1: and then. McLay if this border issue continues and the 43 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:27,160 Speaker 1: Biden administration doesn't stumble like a lottery winner into a 44 00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:29,920 Speaker 1: much better economy, which how the heck is that going 45 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 1: to happen. I think that the border issue drags them 46 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 1: down in a way that you could see a historic 47 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:39,960 Speaker 1: repudiation of the Democrat Party in the midterm elections, largely 48 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,560 Speaker 1: driven by the fact that we have a lawlessness at 49 00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:47,480 Speaker 1: our southern border that they can't explain away. It's bad. 50 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:51,960 Speaker 1: We talked about data earlier for independence and how they 51 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:55,680 Speaker 1: are abandoning Joe Biden in record numbers. Joe Biden has 52 00:02:55,760 --> 00:03:00,920 Speaker 1: bad numbers on virtually every issue, foreign policy, now even COVID, 53 00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:06,480 Speaker 1: which was his calling card got him elected, The economy, inflation, 54 00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:11,240 Speaker 1: all of these things, all of those negative numbers pale 55 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:14,920 Speaker 1: in comparison to the border. And let me just say this, 56 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:19,640 Speaker 1: James Carville got Bill Clinton elected in nineteen ninety two. 57 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 1: Do you remember what his basic message was, Buck, and 58 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 1: I think Ross Pero got Bill Clinton. Well, I know, yeah, 59 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,839 Speaker 1: I know what you're It's the economy stupid, right, It's 60 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:33,920 Speaker 1: the economy stupid, was what James Carville said. That is 61 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 1: the linchpin that got Bill Clinton elected in nineteen ninety two. 62 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:40,240 Speaker 1: As you mentioned, ross Pero running also helped to Bill Clinton. 63 00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:42,839 Speaker 1: Man ross Pero running in ninety two and ninety six 64 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 1: were both ultimately helpful. But but I remember this. My 65 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:49,400 Speaker 1: grandparents were big ross Pero people back in ninety two 66 00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:55,440 Speaker 1: down in Chattanooga. But I will say this, Republicans should 67 00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 1: just run on It's the border stupid, I'm telling you, 68 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 1: if you look at the data, it works for Independence, 69 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:07,960 Speaker 1: it even works for Democrats, It works for white, Black, Asian, 70 00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 1: even Hispanic people. Illegal immigration is the weakest of many 71 00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:19,279 Speaker 1: week issues for Joe Biden. It's the border stupid wins 72 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:22,440 Speaker 1: a landslide election. Now you can piece it together with 73 00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:25,279 Speaker 1: all the other failures right of the Biden administration, and 74 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:28,360 Speaker 1: I think those supplement it. But if you were looking 75 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:32,279 Speaker 1: at the calling card, the signature issue, the one that 76 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 1: is going to motivate the most people, I really do 77 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:40,279 Speaker 1: believe it's the border stupid is the guaranteed winner in 78 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:43,640 Speaker 1: twenty twenty two. I agree. And there are two things 79 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:46,160 Speaker 1: that I would throw out there for everyone to consider 80 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 1: as we discuss this. One is that Trump I think 81 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:55,840 Speaker 1: for a lot of people in the GOP establishment, they 82 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:59,799 Speaker 1: they take the wrong lessons away from the Trump era. 83 00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:03,360 Speaker 1: Why did Trump win? And I covered this, I cover 84 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:06,440 Speaker 1: that primary very close. Yes, Why did Trump not only 85 00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 1: beat his GOP he beat his GOOP opponents? With the 86 00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:13,640 Speaker 1: entire media, including much of the conservative media, arrayed against 87 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:16,279 Speaker 1: him in the beginning, how did he do it? The 88 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:19,920 Speaker 1: issue that rocketed him to the front of the GOP pack, 89 00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 1: never mind what happened in the general against Hillary was 90 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:28,640 Speaker 1: illegal immigration. Speaking about illegal immigration in a way that 91 00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:32,680 Speaker 1: everyday Americans, not everyone, but a majority of solid majority 92 00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:35,920 Speaker 1: of them do not want more illegal immigration, want this 93 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 1: to stop. They understand what it means for jobs, for 94 00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:43,200 Speaker 1: hospital emergency rooms, for the school system. They understand what 95 00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:45,880 Speaker 1: happens if this flow continues in the way that it 96 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:48,880 Speaker 1: has been. That's point one. So Trump, If there's anything 97 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:50,720 Speaker 1: to take from Trump, and there's a lot that we 98 00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, that's what we could do whole 99 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:54,440 Speaker 1: shows on that right, fighting back against the media, calling 100 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:56,479 Speaker 1: them the fake news. There's a lot of things that 101 00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 1: I think transform the GOOP for the better. But on 102 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:03,680 Speaker 1: the issue of immigration, that's where he really stepped into 103 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:06,359 Speaker 1: the sweet spot with the messaging, and obviously build the 104 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:08,520 Speaker 1: Wall was the primary chant really, I mean, make America 105 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:10,279 Speaker 1: great again. But build the wall was what you're hearing 106 00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:12,839 Speaker 1: all the rallies, and we're seeing now they go around 107 00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:14,279 Speaker 1: the wall at the border. It's so interesting. I mean 108 00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:16,600 Speaker 1: the wall actually you can see video of it. The wall. 109 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 1: The walls historically kind of work. I mean, you're a history. 110 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,600 Speaker 1: There's a reason why palaces are surrounded by walls. There's 111 00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 1: a reason why which rich people still live inside of 112 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:28,920 Speaker 1: gated communities, like walls are pretty effective. And the second point, 113 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:30,480 Speaker 1: and you just made me think about this. When we're 114 00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 1: looking at the immigration issue in the border, they're going 115 00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:38,720 Speaker 1: to always say that opposition to illegal immigration is racist. 116 00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:40,680 Speaker 1: That's how they try to shut this down. And I 117 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 1: just want to remind everybody. And we have so many, 118 00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:47,000 Speaker 1: you know, legal immigrants who listen to this show and 119 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:49,360 Speaker 1: they'll reach out. And I know right now I can 120 00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:52,680 Speaker 1: feel almost the Facebook messages, claim the emails coming in 121 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:54,800 Speaker 1: from people who are going to say, yeah, I'm one 122 00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:58,640 Speaker 1: of them. The people who are often the most annoyed 123 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:02,960 Speaker 1: about the open border for illegal system that the Democrats 124 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:08,720 Speaker 1: set up. Our people who came here from Bolivia, from Vietnam, 125 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 1: from Romania, from wherever, and they showed from Nigeria and 126 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:18,559 Speaker 1: they went through the process legally and they are feared, 127 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:22,040 Speaker 1: so it is not a racist thing. Otherwise, you have 128 00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:24,480 Speaker 1: to explain how people from literally all over the world 129 00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,920 Speaker 1: who came here legally to join our American family are 130 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:32,200 Speaker 1: always super annoyed about the illegal situation. Yeah, and this 131 00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:36,040 Speaker 1: is where I also think we need to punch back hard. 132 00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:40,720 Speaker 1: We need to punch back hard on it's the border. 133 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 1: Stupid is an easy pitch, right, but also supplementing that 134 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:49,920 Speaker 1: with it's pastime for people to be willing to fight 135 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:55,320 Speaker 1: back against the everything is racist trope, which is basically 136 00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 1: the foundation of the Democratic Party right now. Right, It's 137 00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:02,960 Speaker 1: canceled culture, it's identity politics, which twin together and lead 138 00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:07,920 Speaker 1: to everything is racist, And we need people who and 139 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:10,600 Speaker 1: buck You and I are rare in this because I 140 00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:13,559 Speaker 1: bet you agree with me. Most people around our age 141 00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:18,320 Speaker 1: white guys. What's the number one fear of white guys 142 00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:23,600 Speaker 1: between the ages of twenty five and fifty called there's 143 00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:25,600 Speaker 1: no question about But it's like being called a pedophile 144 00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 1: for a lot of people, it's like you recoil from it. 145 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 1: It's such a destructive label that so many people are 146 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:36,480 Speaker 1: terrified of being called racist, that they don't say what 147 00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:41,600 Speaker 1: they actually believe, because the power incumbent in just labeling 148 00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:46,400 Speaker 1: someone you don't like as a racist has become so overwhelming. 149 00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:49,000 Speaker 1: It is the big I'm not even kidding, it's the 150 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:53,360 Speaker 1: biggest fear of anyone who is a white male between 151 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:56,440 Speaker 1: let's say the ages of twenty and I'll expand it 152 00:08:56,480 --> 00:09:00,480 Speaker 1: to sixty. Right, like you are racist is a tough because, 153 00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 1: first of all, how do you disprove it? Right? You 154 00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:05,320 Speaker 1: sound stupid if you try to fight back against it 155 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 1: and say, well, no, I actually have an Asian friend 156 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:11,120 Speaker 1: and a black friend, and no, no. The only way 157 00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:15,240 Speaker 1: to fight back against it is to delegitimize the attack 158 00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:18,720 Speaker 1: itself as a point of attack. Right, you can agree 159 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 1: or disagree with us on the border, but you can't 160 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:25,760 Speaker 1: be allowed to say that's racist or whenever you mentioned, hey, 161 00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:28,240 Speaker 1: we have one point seven million illegals coming in and 162 00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:30,840 Speaker 1: here's the problem, Clay, and I pose this to you, 163 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:33,120 Speaker 1: and you know, we have this ongoing conversation where it's 164 00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:35,439 Speaker 1: you me, and then you know the third person is 165 00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:38,280 Speaker 1: every single person across the country who's listening this right now, Right, 166 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 1: That's that's what we're doing every day. I don't know 167 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 1: how we fix this between now and the midterms other 168 00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:49,760 Speaker 1: than just to hammered. I don't like doing the complaining thing. 169 00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:51,200 Speaker 1: As a conservative, I like to, you know, we like 170 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:53,839 Speaker 1: to dissect and fight back and speak the truth. But 171 00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:56,640 Speaker 1: we're gonna have to pound the drum on this pretty 172 00:09:56,679 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 1: loudly between now and next fall because the Democrats. Here's 173 00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 1: the thing, They're not going to change this, not really meaningfully. 174 00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:07,880 Speaker 1: So this will keep going and keep going. And people 175 00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:10,520 Speaker 1: have to understand we view this as a bad thing 176 00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 1: for sovereignty and for the nation. They view it as 177 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:18,480 Speaker 1: the importation of likely Democrat voters. And anybody who says, oh, 178 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:19,960 Speaker 1: but that's they're not going to be able to vote 179 00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:23,800 Speaker 1: or whatever. There's enormous political implications of the illegal immigrant 180 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:26,959 Speaker 1: population in places like California. They have a child here, 181 00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:30,280 Speaker 1: now they're tied to this country. They're much more likely 182 00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:32,200 Speaker 1: as the people grow up. I mean, they're playing the 183 00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 1: long game here of importing people that they believe are 184 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:39,080 Speaker 1: more likely not everybody, but more likely substantially more likely 185 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:43,439 Speaker 1: to vote for Democrats. They are changing the voting patterns 186 00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:46,920 Speaker 1: of this country in a way that could transform us 187 00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:51,840 Speaker 1: into a one party state and raising this issue so 188 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:55,080 Speaker 1: that Americans can hear about it between now and the 189 00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:58,000 Speaker 1: next election. I think that's the only thing we're because 190 00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 1: we see the number, We see one point seven million 191 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:02,640 Speaker 1: and say, oh my gosh, they've got to stop this. 192 00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:05,880 Speaker 1: The Democrats see it and say, let's not talk about 193 00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:09,320 Speaker 1: it because this is helping us in the long term. 194 00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 1: That's the major separation we have. It may help them 195 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:14,640 Speaker 1: in the long term, it could destroy them in the 196 00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:18,560 Speaker 1: short term. I hope that's deploys it. That's the play 197 00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:23,440 Speaker 1: because again, I believe that there is a fundamental repudiation 198 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:27,679 Speaker 1: of illegal immigration that everybody across this country shares and 199 00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:30,240 Speaker 1: that we need to maintain. And I think to your 200 00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:33,120 Speaker 1: point on people coming into the country, oftentimes Buck, as 201 00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:37,959 Speaker 1: you well know, they value American ideals more because they've 202 00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:41,400 Speaker 1: seen what happens when American ideals don't prevail. Right if 203 00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 1: you're from Venezuela and you're listening to us right now, 204 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:46,840 Speaker 1: or you're from Cuba and you're listening to us right now, 205 00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:51,480 Speaker 1: you know what communism and socialism one of the biggest 206 00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:53,240 Speaker 1: some of I mean this, some of you. I go 207 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:55,240 Speaker 1: down to Florida fair amount Some of the biggest Clay 208 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 1: and Buck fans I have come across are Venezuelan in 209 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:01,079 Speaker 1: Cuban America who are just like you. Guys got to 210 00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:03,679 Speaker 1: stay in this fight for freedom. So and that I 211 00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:06,240 Speaker 1: think is so And you saw it obviously in twenty 212 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:09,040 Speaker 1: twenty with a massive outpouring of support for Trump, which 213 00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:12,600 Speaker 1: turned Florida into a comfortable win for him. But I 214 00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:15,600 Speaker 1: think if you break all this down, that is where 215 00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:19,080 Speaker 1: the battle is fought, and that's where the elites out there, 216 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:21,200 Speaker 1: the blue check mark brigade, as I like to call them, 217 00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 1: they still can't grapple with the fact that even in 218 00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:28,280 Speaker 1: COVID Trump increased his support among black, Hispanic Asian voters. 219 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:32,960 Speaker 1: That's because they didn't buy this trope of oh he's racist. 220 00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:36,559 Speaker 1: They saw through that messaging from the media and actually 221 00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:39,720 Speaker 1: looked at the substantive issues at hand. How many times 222 00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:42,760 Speaker 1: have you thought about refinancing your mortgage but you haven't 223 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 1: taken action. It's a smart move for a lot of 224 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:49,720 Speaker 1: homeowners because rates remain incredibly low even today.

You 229 00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:04,800 Speaker 1: just have to call American Financing, America's home for home loans, 230 00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:07,840 Speaker 1: talk to a salary base mortgage consultant about ways they 231 00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 1: can save you up to a thousand dollars a month 232 00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:12,760 Speaker 1: clay and they could even skip two payments, which is 233 00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 1: great way, a great way to end the year.

So this is 299 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:44,320 Speaker 1: the only decoration in your place that you ever have. 300 00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:46,520 Speaker 1: You have a tiny Christmas tree? When do you put 301 00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:47,880 Speaker 1: it out? I don't even have I'm gonna tell you 302 00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:49,840 Speaker 1: right now, because people have been putting this out. I 303 00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:52,080 Speaker 1: don't have anything on my walls really like I have 304 00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:55,200 Speaker 1: at our walls. That's like a college dorm room existence, right, 305 00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:56,640 Speaker 1: But this is what people I'm like, what am I 306 00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:58,960 Speaker 1: supposed to I don't have paintings. I'm not fancy what 307 00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:01,320 Speaker 1: I'm I supposed to have in my walls. I don't 308 00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:03,960 Speaker 1: mean you should have a painting, you should. I would 309 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:06,440 Speaker 1: think paintings would play well with girls because you can 310 00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:10,160 Speaker 1: get like some abstract painting and you'll look deeper, right, 311 00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:12,359 Speaker 1: even if it doesn't mean anything to you, you just 312 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:14,720 Speaker 1: be like, what do you see? Like for me, this 313 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:16,359 Speaker 1: represents I mean, I don't want to go full I 314 00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:18,159 Speaker 1: don't want you to have to go full Hunter Biden, 315 00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:20,639 Speaker 1: but I feel like appreciate. Maybe you could get a 316 00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:22,639 Speaker 1: Hunter Biden picture, by the way, that would be a 317 00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:26,320 Speaker 1: going the full Hunter Biden is a major lifestyle choice. 318 00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:29,159 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna say in general, but yeah, no, I 319 00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:31,159 Speaker 1: don't really get much. But my muss. The other thing 320 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:33,119 Speaker 1: is I lived three blocks from my family here in 321 00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:35,600 Speaker 1: New York. I live very close to my family and 322 00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:38,359 Speaker 1: my parents. They go all out and my little nephew 323 00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:41,040 Speaker 1: and my brothers and sisters. Yeah, my mom's Christmas tree 324 00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:44,040 Speaker 1: is like world class and like big and full of 325 00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:46,800 Speaker 1: decorations of meaning to the family and everything like that. 326 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:49,000 Speaker 1: So that's what you know. But yeah, I kind of 327 00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:51,040 Speaker 1: live in a glorified college dorm with a lot of 328 00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:53,800 Speaker 1: radio equipment. That's actually what I do. I just you 329 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:56,920 Speaker 1: need to see how much Halloween decorations my wife has ordered. 330 00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:59,440 Speaker 1: I mean it it is overwhelming in the house right now. 331 00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:02,080 Speaker 1: You know, if Mike Lindell ever gets into the Halloween 332 00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:06,480 Speaker 1: decoration business, my wife will probably single handedly make him 333 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:09,280 Speaker 1: the most successful Halloween distributor of all time. But in 334 00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:13,399 Speaker 1: the meantime, he's got twist slippers, robes, mattress stoppers, Giza 335 00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:16,080 Speaker 1: sheets on top of many others. You can trust Mike 336 00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:19,200 Speaker 1: Lindell to give you a great night's sleep.

Welcome back to the Clay Travis send 349 00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:03,280 Speaker 1: Buck Sexton Show. We were just talking about illegal immigration 350 00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:06,439 Speaker 1: in the country and there is a connection to this 351 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:08,679 Speaker 1: store I'm going to tell you about now. Clay and 352 00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:11,879 Speaker 1: I discussed this yesterday offline. It was something that I 353 00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:15,560 Speaker 1: wanted to we wanted to bring to your attention yesterday, 354 00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:18,320 Speaker 1: but we are now getting to it today. It's one 355 00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:21,240 Speaker 1: of these stories that's it's hard to hear about because 356 00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:24,399 Speaker 1: you start to think about what this actually meant, what 357 00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:29,280 Speaker 1: happened here, and it does feel like it's some level 358 00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:33,359 Speaker 1: of a stain on what we think of as the 359 00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 1: honor that this country has, where a lot of people 360 00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:39,680 Speaker 1: we think of the American people as those who take action. 361 00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:42,239 Speaker 1: We think of the American people as we've got each 362 00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:44,320 Speaker 1: other's backs. That's how that's that's the country we want 363 00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:47,880 Speaker 1: to live in. When you have the kind of bystanderism 364 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 1: during a completely barbarous attack that we have been reported 365 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:56,440 Speaker 1: that has been reported on here, it makes you wonder 366 00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:58,760 Speaker 1: what's happening in the country. So there's there are multiple 367 00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:01,040 Speaker 1: levels here that Clayton want to get into with you 368 00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:05,280 Speaker 1: part of this conversation. Here's the story. Many of you 369 00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:07,320 Speaker 1: will know it already, but just for anyone who doesn't, 370 00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:11,320 Speaker 1: A thirty five year old man on the Septa train 371 00:20:12,280 --> 00:20:17,159 Speaker 1: in Philadelphia, their mass transit train system. Thirty five year 372 00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:24,520 Speaker 1: old man raped a woman for for thirty minutes while 373 00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:30,080 Speaker 1: passengers who were present in the train car filmed it. 374 00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:33,720 Speaker 1: Did not call police, did not do anything, did not 375 00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:37,760 Speaker 1: try to assist at all, did nothing to step in 376 00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 1: and help this woman. There was a SEPTA employee who 377 00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:44,639 Speaker 1: called police and there was an arrest made, So that 378 00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:50,680 Speaker 1: the transit employee did something, called police and there was 379 00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:53,280 Speaker 1: an arrest made. The officer responding to the scene actually 380 00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:59,159 Speaker 1: found this individual, this thirty five year old illegal immigrant 381 00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:04,760 Speaker 1: from the Congo Fiston Noy found him still in the 382 00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:08,359 Speaker 1: act of the assault. Now, there are a couple of 383 00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:14,760 Speaker 1: different things here, Clay. First off, when you have a 384 00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:18,600 Speaker 1: situation like this, and hat tip to Tucker Crosson's show 385 00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:23,680 Speaker 1: last night for doing the research on this assailant to 386 00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:26,959 Speaker 1: find out that he had both a sex abuse and 387 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:31,400 Speaker 1: criminal drug charge from six years ago in twenty fifteen, 388 00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:34,399 Speaker 1: that should have, because of his illegal status in the country, 389 00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:39,000 Speaker 1: triggered a deportation of him. When that doesn't happen, and 390 00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:41,199 Speaker 1: you have an individual here who commits a heinous and 391 00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:44,760 Speaker 1: brutal assault against a woman because the system and we'll 392 00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:49,280 Speaker 1: get to the bystanderism and the just completely dishonorable actions 393 00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:50,960 Speaker 1: of the people around you did nothing in a moment. 394 00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:54,320 Speaker 1: But when the system doesn't take seriously laws about immigration 395 00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:57,640 Speaker 1: and then someone suffers a horrible attack like this, how 396 00:21:57,680 --> 00:22:00,119 Speaker 1: can that same system claim to have moral authority over 397 00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:03,240 Speaker 1: all the rest of us. Well, it's such a great 398 00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:06,719 Speaker 1: question and such an unfortunate question to have to be discussing. 399 00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:11,240 Speaker 1: But I think of everything in terms of ebbs and flows, 400 00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:16,640 Speaker 1: and what happens is believing that you are over punishing 401 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:22,359 Speaker 1: criminals is a luxury of a relatively low crime society. 402 00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:26,479 Speaker 1: So how does this happen? Let's start there. We drove 403 00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:30,199 Speaker 1: crime down to such an extent in this country that 404 00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 1: instead of like in the nineteen nineties and certainly in 405 00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:35,199 Speaker 1: the nineteen eighties and even in the early years of 406 00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:38,240 Speaker 1: the two thousands, when a lot of people out there 407 00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:42,120 Speaker 1: would have been arguing, we've got to make our streets safer, 408 00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:46,840 Speaker 1: that was a bipartisan process. Remember Bill Clinton ran on, 409 00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:50,280 Speaker 1: we need one hundred thousand more police officers on the streets. 410 00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:54,040 Speaker 1: Joe Biden helped to push through the three Strikes in 411 00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:58,919 Speaker 1: your outlaw that would aid in criminalizing behavior and putting 412 00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:04,040 Speaker 1: the criminal element behind bars for longer. As crime went down, 413 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:08,240 Speaker 1: partly as a result of the success of many of 414 00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:12,320 Speaker 1: these anti crime prohibitions that were put in place by 415 00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:16,800 Speaker 1: our politicians Democrats, Republicans, Independence, then we start to have 416 00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:19,200 Speaker 1: the luxury like where you live in New York City. 417 00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:23,160 Speaker 1: Suddenly people start to say, hey, you know what, stopping 418 00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:26,679 Speaker 1: frisk is racist? Right. It goes back to the Democratic 419 00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:31,080 Speaker 1: mantra of everything as a racist. Being concerned that stopping 420 00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:35,600 Speaker 1: frisk is racist is a concern that is a luxury 421 00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:39,080 Speaker 1: to have because crime has been driven down to such 422 00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:42,520 Speaker 1: a level that many people don't feel afraid. What is 423 00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:45,320 Speaker 1: now happening, I believe, buck, and it's unfortunate that we 424 00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:47,720 Speaker 1: end up in these same cycles over and over again, 425 00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:51,159 Speaker 1: is after crime, murder in particular went up almost thirty percent. 426 00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:54,600 Speaker 1: Many people out there listening to us right now, Democrats, Republicans, 427 00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:57,240 Speaker 1: Independence are looking around and they're saying, I don't feel 428 00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:00,600 Speaker 1: safe on the streets anymore, Black, White, Asian, Hispanic, everybody. 429 00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:05,080 Speaker 1: And I believe what has happened is we have so 430 00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:10,320 Speaker 1: now attacked police. We have moved our target from let's 431 00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:14,360 Speaker 1: put criminals behind bars to police our racist and so 432 00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:17,120 Speaker 1: we have created now a culture where crimes like these 433 00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:20,320 Speaker 1: are far more likely to happen. Now, bigger picture here, 434 00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 1: we've got the immigration you're talking about, because this guy 435 00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 1: shouldn't have been in the country at all. Should have 436 00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:25,200 Speaker 1: been in the country at all, And if we were 437 00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:30,280 Speaker 1: actually aggressively policing, and if we were aggressively enforcing the laws, 438 00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:33,280 Speaker 1: we'd be chasing these guys who have committed crimes, would 439 00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:35,840 Speaker 1: be kicking them out. Well, we had him in the system, 440 00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:39,160 Speaker 1: he was convicted, he was convicted of offenses that should 441 00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:43,320 Speaker 1: have triggered a deportation, but woke judges, let's just be honest, 442 00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:47,359 Speaker 1: social justice warriors in robes, decide that they're not going 443 00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:53,280 Speaker 1: to send this individual out because increasingly, if you deport anybody, 444 00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:56,919 Speaker 1: the Democrat mindset is, if you deport anybody from America 445 00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:00,560 Speaker 1: and they are a non white immigrant to this country, 446 00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:03,600 Speaker 1: that act of deportation is racist because we are a 447 00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:06,720 Speaker 1: nation of immigrants. This is really, this is what pushes 448 00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:10,679 Speaker 1: so much of the belief system of democrat with Democrats 449 00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:13,320 Speaker 1: when it comes to immigration. And you look at this 450 00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:15,800 Speaker 1: instance and you say, if you're not going to deport 451 00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:18,159 Speaker 1: someone who's in the country illegally, who's convicted of a 452 00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:22,200 Speaker 1: sex crime and a drug crime. Who are you deported? 453 00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:24,080 Speaker 1: I mean, do you have to be a mass murderer. 454 00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:27,000 Speaker 1: And remember the same government that wants to be able 455 00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:29,000 Speaker 1: to look into your bank account or they've backed off 456 00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:31,080 Speaker 1: that as of today a little bit, a little bit. 457 00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:34,120 Speaker 1: The same government that wants access to your accounts for 458 00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:37,479 Speaker 1: over six hundred dollars so they can audit you and 459 00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:39,719 Speaker 1: maybe throw you in prison for not paying your taxes 460 00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:43,479 Speaker 1: the way you're supposed to is telling us that when 461 00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:47,040 Speaker 1: they don't deport somebody who is clearly a public safety risk, 462 00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:50,639 Speaker 1: well too bad. Nothing's perfect even Remember this wasn't a 463 00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:53,320 Speaker 1: decision they should have made. It should have triggered a deportation. 464 00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:58,480 Speaker 1: They decided to override that. There's also play the bystander issue. Yeah, 465 00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:00,399 Speaker 1: and I want to get into the bystander issue with 466 00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:02,520 Speaker 1: you here in a sec And I would just point 467 00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:04,600 Speaker 1: out before we go and start to talk about the 468 00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:07,879 Speaker 1: bystander issue, I would say this, buck, let's keep in 469 00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:12,760 Speaker 1: mind that we have insurrectionists who took selfies inside of 470 00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:18,040 Speaker 1: the capital that are in solitary confinement, and yet we 471 00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:22,359 Speaker 1: can't actually deport real criminals who aren't even citizens in 472 00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:25,320 Speaker 1: this country. So it's not only being soft on crime, 473 00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:31,840 Speaker 1: it's being selectively insanely difficult. When the politics justifies going 474 00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:35,159 Speaker 1: after someone aggressively, that's the narrative trumping the crime. The 475 00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:42,640 Speaker 1: sorrow spect Terry mccaulliff tiede prosecutor in Loudon County who 476 00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:46,439 Speaker 1: didn't want to take a hard line against the transgender 477 00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:49,360 Speaker 1: student who sexually assaulted a teen girl in the school, 478 00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:52,520 Speaker 1: made sure to show up to try to throw the 479 00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:57,159 Speaker 1: dad of the assaulted teen in prison. That's and she, 480 00:26:57,480 --> 00:27:02,640 Speaker 1: the prosecutor, ran on a stop mass incarceration platform, right, 481 00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:05,719 Speaker 1: So stop putting people in prison for serious stuff. But 482 00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:07,560 Speaker 1: if you're a dad who speaks out at a school 483 00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:10,159 Speaker 1: board meeting because your daughter was raped by a transgender 484 00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:12,560 Speaker 1: student in the bathroom and the school tried to cover 485 00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:15,600 Speaker 1: it up, you need to be in a cell for 486 00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:18,440 Speaker 1: a while. That's the mentality of the left. We want 487 00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:20,200 Speaker 1: to come back and talk about this bystander issue because 488 00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:23,240 Speaker 1: I think our audience, just sir, everyone knows this assault 489 00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:25,680 Speaker 1: that happened to the sept the train, there were people, numerous, 490 00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:28,000 Speaker 1: we don't know the exact number. Numerous people on the train. 491 00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:31,920 Speaker 1: Not only did they do nothing, some of them film 492 00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:35,560 Speaker 1: the assault. How is that possible? I mean, it's so 493 00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:40,480 Speaker 1: evil and just unthinkable. How could they do well. We're 494 00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:43,639 Speaker 1: living in a very strange era of social media obsession 495 00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:48,000 Speaker 1: and people who think that honor is something for other people. 496 00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:51,080 Speaker 1: We'll get into this in a moment. Sometimes the product 497 00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:53,760 Speaker 1: sells itself. Listen to what Leah of Ohio wrote to 498 00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:56,520 Speaker 1: us about Relief Factor. One Sunday morning, I sat on 499 00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:58,880 Speaker 1: my couch in so much pain. I was in tears. 500 00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:02,080 Speaker 1: That's the day I ordered Relief Factor. Following directions. In 501 00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:04,960 Speaker 1: eight days, I found relief only to get better and better. 502 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:07,560 Speaker 1: I took four packs a day for the first three weeks, 503 00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:10,639 Speaker 1: and with the first full month supply, I am only 504 00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:13,800 Speaker 1: taking two packs daily.

Welcome back in Clay 526 00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:28,760 Speaker 1: Travis buck Sexton Show. Appreciate all of you hanging out 527 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:31,120 Speaker 1: with us. On a great Wednesday in October, we are 528 00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:35,200 Speaker 1: breaking down a story that went viral. A sexual assault 529 00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:39,360 Speaker 1: illegal immigrant occurring on a Septa train. I believe that 530 00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:43,240 Speaker 1: stands for Southeast Pennsylvania Transit Authority. If my East Coast 531 00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:46,200 Speaker 1: knowledge is still accurate. I've been on some of those 532 00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:49,960 Speaker 1: SEPTA trains over the years. But your point, and I 533 00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:52,800 Speaker 1: think it's such an interesting one to discuss, is why 534 00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:55,720 Speaker 1: does nobody report this sexual assault? And worse than that, 535 00:29:55,960 --> 00:30:01,200 Speaker 1: why do people start filming? And my thought, my thought 536 00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:03,960 Speaker 1: on a basic level, can I just yeah, it's just 537 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:06,520 Speaker 1: one of the why don't people intervene? Yeah, I mean 538 00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:08,600 Speaker 1: that's that the first thing, at a minimum, you would 539 00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:11,520 Speaker 1: think you would call police if you're scared to intervene. 540 00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:13,000 Speaker 1: But I mean, you know, and I know we're talking 541 00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:15,600 Speaker 1: to this audience, and we've got particularly men with their 542 00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:17,640 Speaker 1: women to listen to this, who all across the country 543 00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:21,840 Speaker 1: are concealed carry permit holders. Yes, Curner, former military, Curner, 544 00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:25,000 Speaker 1: former law enforcement, are just concerned citizens and they'd be 545 00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:26,560 Speaker 1: right in there, and I know they would so they 546 00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:29,200 Speaker 1: hear about something like this and it's just mind blowing 547 00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:31,920 Speaker 1: to them, I know. And so I've got a couple 548 00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:35,480 Speaker 1: of theories. I'm curious what you think. One, we have 549 00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:39,800 Speaker 1: created an a bystander culture. We have created a culture 550 00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:44,920 Speaker 1: where people's first thought when something newsworthy, good or bad 551 00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:48,040 Speaker 1: happens in front of them. Is not to be an 552 00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:51,360 Speaker 1: agent in the story themselves. It's to be the person 553 00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:54,920 Speaker 1: who holds up their phone and takes video of it. 554 00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:58,600 Speaker 1: Fights in a in a sports bar, fights in a stadium. 555 00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:01,960 Speaker 1: I see this all the time. Very few people actually 556 00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:04,320 Speaker 1: take the effort to try and break up the fight, 557 00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:07,560 Speaker 1: but tons of people pull out their phones and make 558 00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:11,560 Speaker 1: sure that they record the fight again. And maybe an 559 00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:13,760 Speaker 1: even fight you might be nervous about get catching a 560 00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:15,480 Speaker 1: punch trying to break it up. This is a very 561 00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:17,760 Speaker 1: right two guys who are had too much a drink 562 00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:19,800 Speaker 1: who are throwing punches at each other at the ball game. 563 00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:22,040 Speaker 1: I know you and I agree on this. That is 564 00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:26,120 Speaker 1: a dramatic for a different situation level. But most people's 565 00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:28,960 Speaker 1: response on that is to pull out their phones. And 566 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:32,400 Speaker 1: I think if you look at the way that culture evolves, 567 00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:36,040 Speaker 1: people's thought now is not to be a part of 568 00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:39,880 Speaker 1: the story themselves. It's very often to record the activity. 569 00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:43,240 Speaker 1: So it's unfortunate, but I think this kind of thing 570 00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:45,360 Speaker 1: happens all the time, and by the way, Buck, it 571 00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:48,960 Speaker 1: can be where someone is it's not a fair fight 572 00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:52,360 Speaker 1: between two guys I'm talking about somebody is ganging up. 573 00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:55,560 Speaker 1: Eight people are beating up one person. Right, there's still 574 00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:59,600 Speaker 1: someone standing there filming it. It is a film first 575 00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:03,360 Speaker 1: by standard culture. The other thing is I think we 576 00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:08,680 Speaker 1: have in downing the value of masculinity. Let me explain 577 00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:13,480 Speaker 1: my theory here. In trying to make the sexes entirely equal, 578 00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:17,360 Speaker 1: we have created a dynamic where a lot of men, 579 00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:23,000 Speaker 1: especially young men, don't feel like they should be behaving 580 00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:28,360 Speaker 1: chivalrously and protecting those who are weaker. You and I Buck, 581 00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:30,440 Speaker 1: I feel like we're near the tell end. And I 582 00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:33,360 Speaker 1: still raise my kids the same way, but I think 583 00:32:33,360 --> 00:32:35,920 Speaker 1: it's not as prominent in our culture as it was, 584 00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:40,920 Speaker 1: where men are expected to protect women. We are bigger 585 00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:45,720 Speaker 1: and stronger than women, and so we are expected. We 586 00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:48,960 Speaker 1: were raised to protect women who are in danger. That's 587 00:32:49,040 --> 00:32:51,480 Speaker 1: what I was taught, That's what I teach my kids. 588 00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:55,280 Speaker 1: I think a smaller and smaller percentage of Americans are 589 00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:59,280 Speaker 1: being taught the same thing because we're teaching, oh, there's 590 00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:04,080 Speaker 1: no real difference between men, and gender is not real, 591 00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:07,520 Speaker 1: and so even something simple like hey, I'm gonna hold 592 00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:11,080 Speaker 1: the door open for a woman, I don't see young 593 00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:15,160 Speaker 1: men behaving in that same chivalrous fashion as would have 594 00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:17,720 Speaker 1: occurred in the past. And so I think that translates 595 00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:21,120 Speaker 1: when there is someone in a position who is clearly 596 00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:25,840 Speaker 1: being taken advantage of, there isn't that same chivalrous reaction 597 00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:28,360 Speaker 1: to defend a woman because young men have been taught 598 00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:30,360 Speaker 1: in this case. In this case, it's a woman who's 599 00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:35,360 Speaker 1: being really site of a number of people, and I'm 600 00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:37,880 Speaker 1: assuming there was at least one man, although we don't 601 00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:40,240 Speaker 1: know how many, and we don't know what the genders 602 00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:42,760 Speaker 1: were of the people that were watching, but you can 603 00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:45,000 Speaker 1: just guess if this is a it's a pretty crowded 604 00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:46,440 Speaker 1: time of day to be on the train. I'm sure 605 00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:49,440 Speaker 1: there were a number of people there. There should have 606 00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:51,840 Speaker 1: been a sense to your partner. And I completely agree 607 00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:55,600 Speaker 1: with you about you know, Dad's it just was just standard. 608 00:33:55,680 --> 00:33:57,680 Speaker 1: Like my dad always told me growing up, you're not 609 00:33:57,720 --> 00:33:59,440 Speaker 1: a man if you hit a woman. You know, there 610 00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:01,800 Speaker 1: there things like that, And now it's oh, why are 611 00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:06,720 Speaker 1: using this gendered language, and there'll be all this orsive 612 00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:10,680 Speaker 1: way with a woman with women. Women can fight, you know, 613 00:34:11,120 --> 00:34:14,240 Speaker 1: rather biological males can fight in the mma against women, 614 00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:16,960 Speaker 1: and that's like, okay, which is completely insane, by the way, 615 00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:18,759 Speaker 1: and I know that, you know, the trans community wants 616 00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:20,560 Speaker 1: to pretend like it's that's not an insane thing. It 617 00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:23,400 Speaker 1: is an insane thing. But in this instance, I mean, 618 00:34:23,440 --> 00:34:25,440 Speaker 1: we should as as a society, and I look, I 619 00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:28,520 Speaker 1: know that people listening to this are saying, of course 620 00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:30,160 Speaker 1: I would have done something, and I believe it. I mean, 621 00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:33,960 Speaker 1: because the kind of people that believe in honor, integrity, 622 00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:38,719 Speaker 1: and masculinity are are often I would even say overwhelmingly 623 00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:41,520 Speaker 1: these days. Uh, you know, center right in a lot 624 00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:43,920 Speaker 1: of their beliefs, not all, not everybody, but you know 625 00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:46,200 Speaker 1: a lot of them. It's very common to believe in 626 00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:50,120 Speaker 1: what would be considered in some context toxic masculinity i e. 627 00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:54,799 Speaker 1: Male aggression. Use for the defense of women in a 628 00:34:54,800 --> 00:34:57,440 Speaker 1: situation like this, I mean, we should all know, we 629 00:34:57,440 --> 00:34:59,960 Speaker 1: should all be thinking about how it is not possible 630 00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:03,080 Speaker 1: to be a man of honor and to have sat 631 00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:06,080 Speaker 1: by while this woman was being attacked on the train. 632 00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:09,239 Speaker 1: It is not possible to be a man of courage 633 00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:12,480 Speaker 1: to sit by and do nothing. And I would even 634 00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:14,600 Speaker 1: go so far as to say there was a duty 635 00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:16,680 Speaker 1: too if there was an able bodied man on that 636 00:35:16,719 --> 00:35:20,440 Speaker 1: train there was a duty to intervene physically at risk 637 00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:23,960 Speaker 1: of injury and or even death. If you're a man 638 00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:27,000 Speaker 1: of honor, that's what needed to be done here, and Clay, 639 00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:31,560 Speaker 1: they videoed it. Yeah. Nothing. I think in addition to 640 00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:35,239 Speaker 1: the bystander culture and the attack on masculinity, I think 641 00:35:35,239 --> 00:35:38,680 Speaker 1: the attack on masculinity has also created a hyper fear 642 00:35:38,719 --> 00:35:41,560 Speaker 1: of danger. I think there are a lot of people 643 00:35:41,840 --> 00:35:45,319 Speaker 1: that are afraid if they get involved, they're going to 644 00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:48,279 Speaker 1: end up being a victim of violence, or they're going 645 00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:51,120 Speaker 1: to end up a target in some way. And I 646 00:35:51,160 --> 00:35:54,120 Speaker 1: think all of that's conspired to make us worse humans 647 00:35:54,719 --> 00:35:57,000 Speaker 1: in general, right, I mean, and if you're not willing 648 00:35:57,000 --> 00:35:59,560 Speaker 1: to stand up for the weakest among us, to me, 649 00:35:59,800 --> 00:36:04,400 Speaker 1: you are an awful human being. We got an expert 650 00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:06,960 Speaker 1: on China joining us in just a few minutes to 651 00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:08,759 Speaker 1: talk about Clay, the question you and I have been 652 00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:12,359 Speaker 1: pushing back and forth here and thinking about what would 653 00:36:12,360 --> 00:36:14,279 Speaker 1: we do if China went for it with Taiwan. I mean, 654 00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:17,680 Speaker 1: if they decided they were going to take Taiwan, why 655 00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:20,320 Speaker 1: should we act and how should we act in response 656 00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:21,960 Speaker 1: to that? Because it seems more than ever that's a 657 00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:24,480 Speaker 1: possibility I think we're ready for that discussion. We come 658 00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:30,000 Speaker 1: back for sure. And Buck, by the way, it's becoming 659 00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:33,200 Speaker 1: more and more likely the weaker and weaker Joe Biden wooks, 660 00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:36,839 Speaker 1: and that gets worse and worse every single day. Our 661 00:36:36,960 --> 00:36:39,280 Speaker 1: enemies know they can take advantage of us. What should 662 00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:41,760 Speaker 1: we do if Taiwan gets attacked? Its a monster question. 663 00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:47,480 Speaker 1: You're listening to, Clay Travis, send Buck Sexton fund the 664 00:36:47,640 --> 00:36:49,040 Speaker 1: EIB Network
