1 00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:03,680 Speaker 1: Welcome to the Freedom Hut. This is the best of 2 00:00:03,720 --> 00:00:07,480 Speaker 1: buck Daily podcast, the top stories of the day from 3 00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:11,040 Speaker 1: the Buck Sexton Show. From more buck Head to buck 4 00:00:11,119 --> 00:00:14,360 Speaker 1: sexton dot com and remember to subscribe to the podcast. 5 00:00:15,200 --> 00:00:18,960 Speaker 1: Welcome friends to the buck Sexton Show. We are twenty 6 00:00:19,160 --> 00:00:22,880 Speaker 1: two days out from the election, and in some ways 7 00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:26,000 Speaker 1: it really doesn't feel like it does It not nearly 8 00:00:26,040 --> 00:00:28,840 Speaker 1: the same kind of frenzy of political activity out on 9 00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:31,720 Speaker 1: the streets. We don't have lawns in New York City, 10 00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:35,760 Speaker 1: so I can't speak to lawn signs. But everyone's still 11 00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:39,920 Speaker 1: locked up inside. Things are getting colder, people are worried 12 00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:43,200 Speaker 1: about COVID, and this week we're going to spend really 13 00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:48,080 Speaker 1: on a Supreme Court nomination battle. There's going to be 14 00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:51,839 Speaker 1: something of a rest spit from the main effort of 15 00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:55,560 Speaker 1: the election for a few days. And we've already seen 16 00:00:56,560 --> 00:00:59,720 Speaker 1: what the opposition to Amy Coney Barrett looks like so far, 17 00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:03,760 Speaker 1: and the answer is it is unbelievably weak. I mean, 18 00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:07,600 Speaker 1: it's really quite pathetic. You saw this over the weekend. 19 00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:13,680 Speaker 1: You had a number of prominent news sites that started 20 00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:18,920 Speaker 1: doing one of two things. They either changed the definition 21 00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 1: of court packing to include this right which is filling 22 00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:26,640 Speaker 1: a Supreme Court seat. No, that's that's court packing. No, 23 00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:31,160 Speaker 1: that's called filling a seat. That's not packing. Or they've 24 00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:38,480 Speaker 1: started to use this phrase de politicize the court, depoliticize 25 00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:43,600 Speaker 1: Supreme Court dominations. What the heck does that even mean? Well, 26 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:45,520 Speaker 1: it's what you do when you don't have a real argument. 27 00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:48,560 Speaker 1: It's what you do when you're flailing. And clearly the 28 00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:50,960 Speaker 1: Democrats are at this point. What are they going to 29 00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 1: say the incredibly brilliant, universally beloved mother of seven who 30 00:01:55,040 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 1: adopted two black children from Haiti and has already been 31 00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:04,320 Speaker 1: through a Senate confirmation process to be an Appeals Court 32 00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:08,000 Speaker 1: judge and was just pushed through without really any issue 33 00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:10,400 Speaker 1: other than being asked, does the dogma? The dogma lives 34 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:14,720 Speaker 1: loudly within you? Which was great for Conservatives, Catholics and 35 00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:18,239 Speaker 1: Republicans that that question was out there. But she's already 36 00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 1: been confirmed to that why would she not be confirmed here? 37 00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:24,800 Speaker 1: They have no argument, friends, they lost. This is nothing 38 00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:29,160 Speaker 1: but sour grapes, sore loserism from Democrats. That's all it is. 39 00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 1: They have no other argument. History is with the Republicans 40 00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:40,080 Speaker 1: filling this seat, common sense, basic politics. Elections have consequences 41 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 1: the single truest and most useful phrase that Barack Obama 42 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:47,040 Speaker 1: ever uttered. I think, at least as president, elections do 43 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:50,680 Speaker 1: have consequences, and we are seeing right now what that 44 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:54,920 Speaker 1: can mean. So far, it has been pretty pathetic watching 45 00:02:55,040 --> 00:03:00,560 Speaker 1: Democrats dance around the full on assault on Amyn Barrett's 46 00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:03,640 Speaker 1: character that we all kind of know is coming. We 47 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 1: all believe that they'll do something completely disgraceful or disreputable here. 48 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:13,880 Speaker 1: That's their only option. What else are they going to say? ACB? 49 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:17,320 Speaker 1: And I refer to her that way because it's convenient, 50 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:19,920 Speaker 1: but also because it really triggers the Libs. They hate 51 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:24,960 Speaker 1: that she's no RBG. Correct, she's not. And for the 52 00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:29,919 Speaker 1: purposes of a constitutionalist on the court, that's a great thing. 53 00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 1: That's a great thing. But they're going after everything around 54 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 1: this moment. So far, they're trying to set the stage 55 00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 1: and set the narrative. You had Democrats senators spend the 56 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 1: day talking about how important the Affordable Care Act is, 57 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 1: Senators talking about how Donald Trump has done a terrible 58 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 1: job on COVID. These things have nothing to do with ACB. 59 00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 1: Nothing this is all about. It's supposed to be about 60 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:02,720 Speaker 1: deciding whether or not this woman, who is eminently qualified 61 00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 1: to sit on the Supreme Court is in fact going 62 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 1: to sit on the Supreme Court. That's it. There's nothing else, 63 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:10,640 Speaker 1: which is why all along I've held out that we 64 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:13,960 Speaker 1: should have just had the GOP, should have called for 65 00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:19,000 Speaker 1: I vote, have it done and over with, Allow there 66 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:21,160 Speaker 1: to be a vote on this, get it in the books, 67 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:24,600 Speaker 1: get her put in that seat, Dounzo, move on to 68 00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:29,960 Speaker 1: the next challenge. That's it. But no, senators can't help 69 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,720 Speaker 1: but want to take every opportunity to give speeches in 70 00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:35,360 Speaker 1: front of the American people to a national television audience 71 00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:38,240 Speaker 1: about how much they love the Constitution, or about how 72 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:41,200 Speaker 1: much Republicans and Donald Trump hate America, or whatever it 73 00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:44,560 Speaker 1: is that they're going to say. You're hearing a variation 74 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 1: of a political stump speech for most of these senators, 75 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:50,720 Speaker 1: nothing particularly worthwhile or interesting for many of them. Senator 76 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:56,480 Speaker 1: Ben Sass of Nebraska gave a Civics one on one 77 00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:59,120 Speaker 1: lesson today. I suppose some people seem to like it. 78 00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:01,679 Speaker 1: Other people felt like it was kind of a waste 79 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:05,120 Speaker 1: of everyone's time. Senator Dick Durban also did much of 80 00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 1: the same, going off on some lengthy speech about the 81 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:14,360 Speaker 1: need to protect pre existing conditions and how the Supreme 82 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 1: Court is supposed to be this sacred body, and none 83 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:20,920 Speaker 1: of it really adds up to anything other than they 84 00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 1: are upset that they're not getting their way. Now. I 85 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:26,560 Speaker 1: know SASA is a Republican. I didn't mean to throw 86 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 1: him in there with Durban, but I don't trust him. 87 00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:30,800 Speaker 1: It's gonna say, I don't trust the guy as a 88 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 1: Republican at all. I think he's more about SASS than 89 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:35,160 Speaker 1: he is about the GOP, that's for sure. Some of 90 00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:38,360 Speaker 1: you can disagree with me, and that's fine, But onto 91 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 1: what they're going to do. Now they've tried so hard, 92 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:44,560 Speaker 1: they've they've they've tested and then thrown out there all 93 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:48,279 Speaker 1: these different narratives. They're still clinging to the weakest of 94 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:50,720 Speaker 1: all I think, which is it was it was rbg's 95 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:56,160 Speaker 1: last wish. I do not care, neither does any other Republican. 96 00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:59,560 Speaker 1: It's not it doesn't matter. Rbg's last wish is not 97 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:04,680 Speaker 1: meaning full for a government proceeding that is representative of 98 00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 1: what is best for three hundred and thirty million people. Okay, 99 00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:11,560 Speaker 1: doesn't matter the same way that the Democrats pretend it 100 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:15,280 Speaker 1: does not matter that RBG was on the record and 101 00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:19,000 Speaker 1: explicitly against packing the court. So who was it that 102 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:21,599 Speaker 1: tried to pack the court? Just it's worth taking a 103 00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:24,680 Speaker 1: moment to look back in time for a second. Who 104 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:30,000 Speaker 1: was it? It was? FDR? Wasn't oh a big Democrat, 105 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:37,200 Speaker 1: the Democrat who ushered in really the overreaching federal government authority, 106 00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:43,160 Speaker 1: the enormous fissures and breaks in the Constitution. So it 107 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 1: was in fact the Democrats who once again part as 108 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:50,160 Speaker 1: part of their will to power, tried to push through 109 00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:54,400 Speaker 1: court packing. They don't get their way and they want 110 00:06:54,520 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 1: to change things. It's back in nineteen thirty seven. So 111 00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 1: it stayed at nine back then. But that was also 112 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:06,960 Speaker 1: because the composition of the court changed enough and the 113 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 1: decisions changed enough to Roosevelt's liking. What was it about 114 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:13,840 Speaker 1: the not the Green New Deal, oh, but new Deal legislation. 115 00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:17,520 Speaker 1: So let's understand this as we have democrats today lecturing 116 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:20,040 Speaker 1: us about precedent and history and making it up as 117 00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:26,680 Speaker 1: they go along. That FDR perhaps the big government patron saints. 118 00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:29,160 Speaker 1: I don't know if you want to call him a saint, 119 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:33,680 Speaker 1: but you know, the big government exemplar of the twentieth century. 120 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:36,480 Speaker 1: Couldn't get the Supreme Court then to agree that some 121 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,480 Speaker 1: of his new Deal actions were in fact constitutional. So 122 00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:42,200 Speaker 1: what did he do change the people making the decisions 123 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:47,720 Speaker 1: about the constitutionality. A very Olynskyite approach. Now that's what 124 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 1: he wanted to do. It was not successful, obviously, and 125 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:53,280 Speaker 1: the judges stayed at nine. But it was that same impulse. 126 00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 1: We have power, we want to do things. We are collectivists, 127 00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:00,600 Speaker 1: and we believe in state authority, so we're just going 128 00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:03,280 Speaker 1: to go for it. It doesn't matter. There's a founding 129 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:06,560 Speaker 1: document that we're all supposed to adhere to that creates 130 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:08,680 Speaker 1: the basis for all of these government actions, known as 131 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:12,320 Speaker 1: the Constitution. It's not supposed to matter. And then you 132 00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 1: have this other, this media. It's really amazing, this media 133 00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:21,760 Speaker 1: effort where it is almost like and I say almost 134 00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:24,760 Speaker 1: because it is like, actually, I'd be willing to bet 135 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:26,520 Speaker 1: that if you were able to track down the emails, 136 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 1: you'd find out that there were members of the media 137 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:34,280 Speaker 1: who are getting emails from Democrat list serves and Democrat 138 00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:37,480 Speaker 1: email lists and things telling them to start referring to 139 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:39,960 Speaker 1: the deep politicization of the court and also just say 140 00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:43,320 Speaker 1: that it's the Republicans who are court packing. This is 141 00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 1: classic gaslighting, and that's exactly what they're doing. Now. They 142 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:51,960 Speaker 1: do something, or try to do something. In this case, 143 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,760 Speaker 1: they haven't done it yet, thankfully, but they try to 144 00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 1: push through a court packing scheme, and when it doesn't 145 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:01,360 Speaker 1: work out for them, when the public or at least 146 00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 1: the institutions that are watching over this thing, say look, 147 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:08,160 Speaker 1: you guys, they're allowed to do this, you can just 148 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:10,560 Speaker 1: wine and wind, they say, well, yeah, well you're the 149 00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 1: ones who are packing the court what. Yeah, you're the 150 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:18,200 Speaker 1: ones who are doing it. You cheated. This is the 151 00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:20,560 Speaker 1: logic of an eight year old who stole a piece 152 00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:23,200 Speaker 1: of birthday cake, knows he's about to get caught, and 153 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:26,239 Speaker 1: so he blames his six year old sister. She did it, 154 00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:30,199 Speaker 1: Cast dispersions on the other side, undermine them, and hope 155 00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 1: that your side is able to get what they what 156 00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:35,439 Speaker 1: they want out of the equation. That's what's happening here. Democrats, 157 00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:37,520 Speaker 1: in so many ways do act like a spoiled eight 158 00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:40,880 Speaker 1: year old. That's really the central id, the central ethos 159 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:45,080 Speaker 1: of the party. I want, therefore I demand, I want, 160 00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 1: therefore I should get. Constitution can't be an impediment to it. 161 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:51,560 Speaker 1: The rule of law can't be an impediment to it. 162 00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:56,840 Speaker 1: And even the stellar credentials of ACB and the fact 163 00:09:56,840 --> 00:10:01,079 Speaker 1: that here we have a truly obviously decent, kind, ethical, 164 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:04,160 Speaker 1: brilliant person who's going to be in a role where 165 00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:07,839 Speaker 1: she will make good decisions and stay in her lane. 166 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:10,440 Speaker 1: She's not going to be a super legislator. She will 167 00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:14,320 Speaker 1: at some point, i'm sure, disappoint conservatives because she won't 168 00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:18,200 Speaker 1: do things that are outside of the constitutional scope of 169 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 1: a Supreme Court justice. It's the left, it's the liberals 170 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 1: who want something very different. They want a super legislature 171 00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:29,800 Speaker 1: that is not accountable to the people, and that will 172 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:33,200 Speaker 1: give them at the key moments in the courts decision 173 00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:36,080 Speaker 1: making process, will give them the laws and the political 174 00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:39,160 Speaker 1: victories that they want. This is for all of us 175 00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:42,040 Speaker 1: to see. It's quite obvious. It's quite apparent, And for 176 00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:46,200 Speaker 1: all the smarmy lib lawyers out there with their much 177 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:49,280 Speaker 1: heralded credentials because they went to some institution that is 178 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:54,080 Speaker 1: now just churning out erudite leftists as fast as possible 179 00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:58,440 Speaker 1: who have bad judgment, but unfortunately have strong enough legal 180 00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:01,880 Speaker 1: credentials that they now largely control the legal profession. I mean, 181 00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:05,720 Speaker 1: the left has overtaken not just undergrad programs, but law schools. 182 00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:08,480 Speaker 1: Speak to somebody who's gone to law school in the 183 00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:11,600 Speaker 1: last ten or fifteen years. There every bid is down 184 00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:16,839 Speaker 1: with BLM and social justice and you know, Occupy Wall 185 00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:19,480 Speaker 1: Street and all this stuff, you name it, big corporate 186 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:23,400 Speaker 1: law firms. It'd be shocking if Americans actually really understood 187 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:27,240 Speaker 1: how far this leftist ideological rot has extended throughout the 188 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:32,160 Speaker 1: legal profession. What ACB's gonna withstand all of that? And 189 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:34,560 Speaker 1: here's my prediction for the week. And this is one 190 00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:37,600 Speaker 1: of these predictions where I hope I'm wrong. You will 191 00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 1: recall that Brett Kavanaugh was also sailing through stellar credentials, 192 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 1: perfectly situated, gold plated resume for a Supreme Court justice. 193 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:50,400 Speaker 1: Nothing about the guy didn't add up to, yeah, he 194 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:53,360 Speaker 1: should be voted through. And that's the way the beginning 195 00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:56,600 Speaker 1: of those hearings went till all of a sudden we 196 00:11:56,679 --> 00:12:01,360 Speaker 1: knew that there was this allegation that surfaced, and then 197 00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:04,240 Speaker 1: this woman showed up, and it was all just run 198 00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:09,240 Speaker 1: through the Democrat apparatus. You had very powerful figures prepping 199 00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 1: and assisting and pushing for Blasi Ford, and then of 200 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 1: course two other women came forward, each one less credible 201 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:21,160 Speaker 1: than the next with their allegations. And there are a 202 00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:24,480 Speaker 1: whole bunch of allegations of people that made their way 203 00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:26,439 Speaker 1: to the Senate that didn't actually make their way under 204 00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:29,800 Speaker 1: the Senate floor because they were so absurd that even 205 00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:34,719 Speaker 1: the shameless and disgraceful Kamala Harris and the rest of 206 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:38,360 Speaker 1: the Senate Democrats on the Judiciary weren't willing to use 207 00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:42,040 Speaker 1: because their allegations from women who, it was demonstrable, had 208 00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:46,560 Speaker 1: never even been in the same state as Kavanaugh, never 209 00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:50,240 Speaker 1: mind had actually been the victim of some attack by 210 00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:53,200 Speaker 1: his hand. Brett Kavanaugh was a manifestly innocent person and 211 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:56,080 Speaker 1: a good man, and perfectly suited to be a Supreme 212 00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 1: Court justice. Amy Coney Barrett is a good woman and 213 00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:03,080 Speaker 1: all so perfectly suited for the role. We're gonna go 214 00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:05,640 Speaker 1: through a few days here where it'll seem like everything 215 00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:08,680 Speaker 1: is just fine, and then at the very last moment, 216 00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:10,800 Speaker 1: as we were just a few weeks away from an election, 217 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:14,320 Speaker 1: I think Democrats will spring the trap. I don't know 218 00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:16,560 Speaker 1: what it is. It may be a process thing, it 219 00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:19,839 Speaker 1: may be blocking access to Capitol Hill, It may be 220 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:22,959 Speaker 1: someone coming forward who claims that they heard Amy Coney 221 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:29,120 Speaker 1: Barrett saying anti LGBT slurs thirty years ago, with no 222 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:32,680 Speaker 1: proof and no nothing, but it's something along those lines. 223 00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:37,240 Speaker 1: But they're gonna try and it's gonna be ugly. That's 224 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:39,720 Speaker 1: my prediction, So just get ready for it. We're gonna 225 00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:41,480 Speaker 1: I think we're gonna go through a few days of 226 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:46,880 Speaker 1: pretty smooth sailing Democrats flailing looking weak, looking absurd. But 227 00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:49,480 Speaker 1: I know, I know this left wing mentality, I know 228 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:51,760 Speaker 1: what this Democrat party has become, and they're going to 229 00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:56,439 Speaker 1: try something ugly and disgusting in the next forty eight 230 00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 1: hours or so.

Well, 234 00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:13,960 Speaker 1: I can tell you that we're getting this question. It's 235 00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:16,880 Speaker 1: a common question being asked because American people who have 236 00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:18,960 Speaker 1: watched the Republicans pack in the court over the last 237 00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:20,840 Speaker 1: three and a half years, and they brag about it. 238 00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:23,640 Speaker 1: They've taken every vacancy and filled it. Did you know 239 00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:26,280 Speaker 1: that they've sent us and we have approved only with 240 00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:29,480 Speaker 1: their votes. That might add ten people who have been 241 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:33,960 Speaker 1: judged unanimously unqualified by the American Bar Association. Do you 242 00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:36,640 Speaker 1: know how many judicial nominees came from Obama who were 243 00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:41,120 Speaker 1: judged unanimously unqualified. None? So we are dealing with people 244 00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:43,760 Speaker 1: on the court packed into the court with little or 245 00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:46,360 Speaker 1: no qualification, who are going to be there for a 246 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:49,520 Speaker 1: long time. So it's understandable the Republicans raised the issue 247 00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:52,440 Speaker 1: of court packing, changing the definition. That's Dick Durbin on 248 00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 1: the Senate Judiciary Committee changing the definition of court packing 249 00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:58,760 Speaker 1: in real time. That is not what court packing is. 250 00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:02,280 Speaker 1: You can say don't like their nominations. You can say 251 00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:05,560 Speaker 1: a lot of things, but you can't say that that's 252 00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:08,840 Speaker 1: court packing, which is what they're doing. They're claiming right 253 00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:12,120 Speaker 1: now that the words that we are using to talk 254 00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:15,240 Speaker 1: about this nomination process don't actually have a specific meaning, 255 00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 1: that they can change the meaning of those words in 256 00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 1: real time. What is that reminiscent of? There's a great 257 00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:24,040 Speaker 1: irony in all this? Isn't there? Then? At a time 258 00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:26,320 Speaker 1: when we're talking about who should sit on the Supreme Court, 259 00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:30,440 Speaker 1: somebody who believes the Constitution is a document that has meaning, 260 00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:33,520 Speaker 1: and that the words have implications that are not subject 261 00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:39,000 Speaker 1: to whims and interpretations not rooted in the actual text. Right, 262 00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:42,680 Speaker 1: you have textualists and you have living constitution people. Right, 263 00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:45,360 Speaker 1: it's just whatever I want it to be, whenever I 264 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:47,840 Speaker 1: want it to be. That. Well, look at what the 265 00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:50,640 Speaker 1: Democrats are doing right now with court packing. Court Packing 266 00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:52,480 Speaker 1: isn't that thing that we've all agreed it is for 267 00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:54,680 Speaker 1: as long as we've been using the term, it's some 268 00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:59,360 Speaker 1: other thing, it's some other concept. Let me now, let 269 00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 1: me now shift into that conversation. It's stunning, it's disgusting, 270 00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:11,840 Speaker 1: it's unfair. But that's where we are. That's where we are. 271 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:15,800 Speaker 1: Depoliticizing is the other term we're using. The Associated Press 272 00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:19,240 Speaker 1: has heard it a talk about This was the quote 273 00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:22,960 Speaker 1: from the Weekend. Bullock said that if Coney Barrett was confirmed, 274 00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:26,520 Speaker 1: he would be open to measures to depoliticize the court, 275 00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:30,560 Speaker 1: including adding judges to the bench, a practice critics have 276 00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:35,280 Speaker 1: dubbed packing. Oh so now we're gonna see. This is 277 00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:38,480 Speaker 1: why I always tell you, watch the words the Democrats use, 278 00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:42,160 Speaker 1: from a legal alien to a legal immigrant, to undocumented 279 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:45,520 Speaker 1: immigrant to undocumented period, just given documents, then they're just 280 00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:47,840 Speaker 1: American like everybody else, right, the same thing doesn't matter. 281 00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:52,640 Speaker 1: Look at that. There are so many instances of this. Oh, 282 00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:59,600 Speaker 1: pro choice, women's health, women's health rights, say abortion, guys, 283 00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:01,760 Speaker 1: you're talking about abortion. No one has any problem with 284 00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:05,120 Speaker 1: any other women's quote health rights. But they can't use 285 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:09,560 Speaker 1: the actual language that we all agree mean something, because 286 00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 1: then they'll lose the debate. So what do they do 287 00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:14,000 Speaker 1: to change the terms of the debate when they're not 288 00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:16,480 Speaker 1: deep platforming, as you can see, when they're not shutting 289 00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:20,399 Speaker 1: you down, silencing you, what do they do? Change the 290 00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:22,560 Speaker 1: way that you can use the platform, change the words 291 00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:27,720 Speaker 1: that are acceptable, change the definition, at least in the 292 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:30,479 Speaker 1: public mind, so that now they can say whatever they 293 00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:34,359 Speaker 1: want about a thing. Deep politicizing. Oh okay, sure, isn't 294 00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:37,399 Speaker 1: that so? Isn't that so quaint? We all know what 295 00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:39,800 Speaker 1: they're trying to do here, We all understand what's happening. 296 00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:45,080 Speaker 1: But you're seeing the fundamental dishonesty of the Democrat Party 297 00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:49,240 Speaker 1: on full display for all right now, whether it's on 298 00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:52,680 Speaker 1: changing the terms of our discussion over the Supreme Court 299 00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:55,639 Speaker 1: vacancy that will hopefully soon be filled by Amy Coney 300 00:17:55,680 --> 00:18:00,960 Speaker 1: Barrett or saying that Joe Biden know that there is 301 00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:03,280 Speaker 1: no right for the people to know, there is no 302 00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:05,920 Speaker 1: reason for the people to know if Biden would even 303 00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:10,040 Speaker 1: engage in court packing, fundamental dishonesty from all quarters. That's 304 00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:14,400 Speaker 1: your Democrat Party in twenty twenty. You're in the freedom Huh. 305 00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:17,960 Speaker 1: This is the best of Buck Daily Podcast, the top 306 00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:21,800 Speaker 1: stories of the day from the Buck Sexton Show. It 307 00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:27,600 Speaker 1: is Columbus Day. It is not Indigenous People's Day. It 308 00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 1: is Columbus Day, named for Christopher Columbus, the Italian explorer 309 00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:35,920 Speaker 1: who on behalf of the Spanish crown, discovered the New 310 00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:42,040 Speaker 1: World change global history and is somebody who for this accomplishment. 311 00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:46,320 Speaker 1: We celebrate him, all right. We don't celebrate him because 312 00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:48,720 Speaker 1: he was a nice guy, because he was just a 313 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:54,880 Speaker 1: big old cuddle bear. We celebrate Christopher Columbus because he's 314 00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:58,479 Speaker 1: somebody who changed the course of history and brought about 315 00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:02,440 Speaker 1: a change in the historical trajectory that resulted in a system, 316 00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:05,280 Speaker 1: the American system, that then spread around the world that 317 00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:08,840 Speaker 1: has resulted in more people living longer, healthier, better lives, 318 00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:11,640 Speaker 1: more people pulled out of poverty in the twentieth century 319 00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:13,880 Speaker 1: into the twenty first century alone, than at any other 320 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:16,600 Speaker 1: time in human history, and probably all of the rest 321 00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:19,919 Speaker 1: of human history added together. I know that sounds mind boggling, 322 00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:24,080 Speaker 1: but it's true. Here's a proclamation on Columbus Day from 323 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:27,240 Speaker 1: the White House. More than five hundred years ago, Christopher Columbus, 324 00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:30,320 Speaker 1: in trepid voyage to the New World, ushered in a 325 00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:34,760 Speaker 1: new era of exploration and discovery. His travels led to 326 00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:38,240 Speaker 1: European contact with the Americas, and a century later, the 327 00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:42,639 Speaker 1: first settlements on the shores of the modern day United States. Today, 328 00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:45,240 Speaker 1: we celebrate Columbus Day to commemorate the great Italian who 329 00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:48,200 Speaker 1: opened a new chapter in world history, and to appreciate 330 00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:52,960 Speaker 1: his enduring significance to the Western Hemisphere. When Christopher Columbus 331 00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:55,280 Speaker 1: and his crew sailed across the Atlantic Ocean on the 332 00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:58,720 Speaker 1: Nina Pinta and Santa Maria, it marked the beginning of 333 00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:02,240 Speaker 1: a new era in human history. For Italian Americans, Christopher 334 00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:05,480 Speaker 1: Columbus represents one of the first of many immeasurable contributions 335 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:09,000 Speaker 1: of Italy to American history. As a native of Genoa, 336 00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:12,920 Speaker 1: Columbus inspired early immigrants to carry forth their rich Italian 337 00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:16,240 Speaker 1: heritage to the New World. Today, the United States benefits 338 00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:19,960 Speaker 1: from the warmth and generosity of nearly seventeen million Italian Americans, 339 00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:23,320 Speaker 1: whose love of family and country strengthen the fabric of 340 00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:27,359 Speaker 1: our nation. For our beautiful Italian American communities and Americans 341 00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:32,879 Speaker 1: of every background, Columbus remains a legendary figure. Sadly, in 342 00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:37,240 Speaker 1: recent years, radical activists have sought to undermine Christopher Columbus's legacy. 343 00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:41,320 Speaker 1: These extremists seek to replace discussion of his vast contributions 344 00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:44,920 Speaker 1: with talk of failings with discoveries of atrocities, and his 345 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:50,119 Speaker 1: achievements with transgressions. Rather learn from our history. Rather than 346 00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:53,400 Speaker 1: learn from our history, this radical ideology and its adherents 347 00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:55,840 Speaker 1: seek to revise it, deprive it of any splendor, and 348 00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:59,840 Speaker 1: market as inherently sinister. They seek to squash any descent 349 00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:02,920 Speaker 1: from their orthodoxy. We must not give into these tactics 350 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:04,960 Speaker 1: or consent to such a bleak view of our history. 351 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:08,280 Speaker 1: We much teach. We must teach future generations about our 352 00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:11,840 Speaker 1: storied heritage, starting with the protection of monuments to our 353 00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:16,120 Speaker 1: intrepid heroes like Columbus. This June I signed an executive 354 00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:19,359 Speaker 1: order to ensure that any person or group destroying or 355 00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:23,679 Speaker 1: vandalizing a federal monument, memorial, or statue is prosecuted to 356 00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:26,840 Speaker 1: the fullest extent of the law. I've also taken steps 357 00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:29,639 Speaker 1: to ensure that we preserve our nation's history and promote 358 00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:34,200 Speaker 1: patriotic education. On this Columbus Day, we embraced the same 359 00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:37,000 Speaker 1: optimism that led Christopher Columbus to discover the new world. 360 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:40,200 Speaker 1: We inherit that optimism, along with the legacy of American 361 00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:43,840 Speaker 1: heroes who blaze the trails, settle the continent, tame the wilderness, 362 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:47,120 Speaker 1: and built the single greatest nation the world has ever seen. 363 00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:51,960 Speaker 1: In commemoration of Christopher Columbus's historic voyage, the Congress, by 364 00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:55,440 Speaker 1: joint Resolution of April thirtieth, nineteen thirty four, requested the 365 00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:58,200 Speaker 1: President proclaimed the second Monday of October each year as 366 00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:02,480 Speaker 1: Columbus Day.

In witness hereof I have here 376 00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:30,240 Speaker 1: unto set my hand this ninth day of October and 377 00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:33,200 Speaker 1: the year of our Lord two twenty now the independence 378 00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:36,040 Speaker 1: of the United States of America, the two hundred and 379 00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:39,919 Speaker 1: forty fifth Donald Trump. That's just one thing that if 380 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:42,119 Speaker 1: Joe Biden becomes your president, you can kiss all that 381 00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:46,399 Speaker 1: kind of stuff goodbye. Joe Biden will be showing up 382 00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:49,840 Speaker 1: talking about Indigenous People's Day. You know, it's fascinating, isn't it. 383 00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:56,520 Speaker 1: For BLM Democrats war Kent cloth scarfs, remember that. I 384 00:22:56,520 --> 00:23:00,720 Speaker 1: mean it was Nancy Pelosi Kente cloth scarf, right, What 385 00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:05,439 Speaker 1: such a shameless pandering, such demagoguery, and among many others 386 00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:09,720 Speaker 1: Chuck Schumer. Yeah, because they're really all about They're really 387 00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:14,679 Speaker 1: all about African history. I mean, but Joe Biden, you know, 388 00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:17,919 Speaker 1: I might show up on Indigenous People's Day. What I mean, 389 00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:20,399 Speaker 1: I don't know was he gonna wear it, wear a 390 00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:23,159 Speaker 1: feathered headdress or something? Or is that is that? No, 391 00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:25,760 Speaker 1: that's not allowed. Kent take cloth is allowed, But Native 392 00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:29,000 Speaker 1: American garb or anything like that not allowed, seems to 393 00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:31,600 Speaker 1: Who knows where the rules are different from the left 394 00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:34,720 Speaker 1: than on the right, that's for sure. But all of this, 395 00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:37,760 Speaker 1: this talk of American optimism and the brilliance of Columbus 396 00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:40,159 Speaker 1: and what he did, that will all be entirely forgotten. 397 00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:43,679 Speaker 1: And there's another part of this history that's forgotten as well, 398 00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:48,440 Speaker 1: and that's Columbus as as a as a point of pride. 399 00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:51,480 Speaker 1: And one would think if they really look back, and 400 00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:54,240 Speaker 1: I think if more people knew this history, particularly if Democrats, 401 00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:56,000 Speaker 1: by the way, don't know history. They know little snippets 402 00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:59,000 Speaker 1: of history that are useful for the socialist left narrative 403 00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:03,080 Speaker 1: of control today, but they don't actually know history as 404 00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:05,800 Speaker 1: as just a broad thing. They generally have no idea 405 00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:07,199 Speaker 1: what the heck they're talking about. And I mean the 406 00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:08,879 Speaker 1: ones that are making these arguments. I mean, I mean 407 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:11,520 Speaker 1: the sixteen nineteen project, which now people are calling for 408 00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:15,080 Speaker 1: it to be stripped of its pulitzer, which will never happen, 409 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:19,160 Speaker 1: even though it's it's changed its mission statement. That's how 410 00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:22,159 Speaker 1: that's how fraudulent that whole thing was. They've said it 411 00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:24,720 Speaker 1: was about establishing a new day for the American founding. 412 00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:26,800 Speaker 1: And now they're saying, no, it's not about that. We've 413 00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:33,159 Speaker 1: we've scrubbed that. Not not true. Oh interesting, But people 414 00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:37,480 Speaker 1: forget the struggles. You know, there have been waves of 415 00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:39,880 Speaker 1: immigration into this country in the past, and the struggles 416 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:45,480 Speaker 1: that different immigrant groups had, notably Italian Americans who did 417 00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:49,479 Speaker 1: face real discrimination. And I know people hear this now 418 00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:51,080 Speaker 1: and they think, come on, Italian we got you know, 419 00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:53,960 Speaker 1: Cuomo is the governor of New York and you know 420 00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:57,560 Speaker 1: Rudy Giuliani was the America's most famous mayor. You think 421 00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:01,520 Speaker 1: of all these Italian Americans who I have big political 422 00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:06,080 Speaker 1: names and have become so well known. But if you 423 00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:08,760 Speaker 1: go back into history a little bit, there were some 424 00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:14,000 Speaker 1: very ugly incidents of bigotry against Italian immigrants in this country. 425 00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:18,080 Speaker 1: And Columbus Columbus Day was was a thing that they 426 00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:22,520 Speaker 1: drived tremendous pride in because the Italian Americans were generally 427 00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:25,520 Speaker 1: doing menial jobs when they got he or didn't speak 428 00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:29,040 Speaker 1: the language, were and especially for those who were more 429 00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:33,000 Speaker 1: Sicilian and from you know, further south and more central 430 00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:37,200 Speaker 1: in the Mediterranean Sea, they were known to be usually 431 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:40,240 Speaker 1: a little bit darker and so there was there was 432 00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:43,800 Speaker 1: a racial component that would come out to the anti 433 00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:47,000 Speaker 1: Italian rhetoric of the time. And I know, and now 434 00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:49,920 Speaker 1: it's it's like talking about anti Irish bigotry. Irish were 435 00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:52,520 Speaker 1: banned from or barred from jobs, Irish need not apply. 436 00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:55,680 Speaker 1: Irish weren't allowed to where Irish were thought of as criminals. 437 00:25:55,680 --> 00:26:00,960 Speaker 1: Irish were thought of as as as thugs, thieves, on rustworthy. 438 00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:03,200 Speaker 1: Now then the Irish became you know, they went from 439 00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:05,399 Speaker 1: being the quote thieves to then becoming the cops in 440 00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:08,280 Speaker 1: pretty much every major American city and then running you know, 441 00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:10,520 Speaker 1: the political machinery, and now you know, they're all over 442 00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:14,159 Speaker 1: the place, right And I'm basically half Irish by by heritage, 443 00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:19,520 Speaker 1: roughly roughly fifty percent Irish, and of that stock, my 444 00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:23,280 Speaker 1: ancestors came over on one side during the Potato famine 445 00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:26,239 Speaker 1: in eighteen forty and settled in Brooklyn, New York, just 446 00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:27,960 Speaker 1: got right off the dock. And this is where they were, 447 00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:29,960 Speaker 1: and that's why I've got I've got very long roots 448 00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:35,200 Speaker 1: here in New York City. But the Italians, there's one 449 00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:38,119 Speaker 1: incident that comes to mind. I mean, there were eleven 450 00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:43,359 Speaker 1: Italian Americans who were lynched. Also another thing. Lynching was 451 00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:48,800 Speaker 1: a terrible crime that was done mostly but not exclusively, 452 00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:54,080 Speaker 1: against African Americans from around eighteen called eighteen seventy, getting 453 00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:57,160 Speaker 1: into about reconstruction era into the nineteen twenties or so. 454 00:26:58,040 --> 00:26:59,960 Speaker 1: You had a few thousand people in the United State 455 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:05,360 Speaker 1: dates who were lynched, and about two out of three 456 00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:08,480 Speaker 1: were African American, But there was about a third of 457 00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:11,880 Speaker 1: the lynchings that occurred were not the horrible crimes perpetrated 458 00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:14,520 Speaker 1: against African Americans. There were. There were terrible crimes against 459 00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:20,440 Speaker 1: against other people, including whites who were trying to push 460 00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:22,840 Speaker 1: for black rights in the South. There were a whole 461 00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:27,080 Speaker 1: number of them who were lynched, and immigrants, different immigrants 462 00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:29,840 Speaker 1: were lynched in eighteen ninety one. I don't even know 463 00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:31,800 Speaker 1: how many of you would would know this this story. 464 00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:34,439 Speaker 1: New Orleans one of my favorite cities in America. I 465 00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:37,760 Speaker 1: love New Orleans. It's such a fun place and it's 466 00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:41,720 Speaker 1: such such a cool mix of different cultures. But it 467 00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:44,360 Speaker 1: wasn't always a happy place with regard to how those 468 00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:47,120 Speaker 1: cultures interacted with each other. That's and that's putting it mildly. 469 00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:48,439 Speaker 1: I mean, depending on the time in history, you can 470 00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:51,240 Speaker 1: obviously point to a whole lot of problems there, but 471 00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:55,640 Speaker 1: there were. There was an assassination effectively of I believe 472 00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:57,879 Speaker 1: it was the police chief. It might have been the 473 00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:00,720 Speaker 1: mayor of New Orleans. I have to check. I think 474 00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:04,400 Speaker 1: it was the police chief, and he was killed. And 475 00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:07,439 Speaker 1: they believed that it was the Italian American population. This 476 00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:09,200 Speaker 1: was eighteen ninety one in New Orleans. They thought it 477 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:11,760 Speaker 1: was the Italian American population. There already was this sense 478 00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:15,600 Speaker 1: of mafia ties and criminal activity with the Italians, and 479 00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:17,399 Speaker 1: they and they had already had a number of people 480 00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:20,440 Speaker 1: tried and acquitted, and they were still being held in 481 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 1: the jail for some reason, and others were still awaiting trial. 482 00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:28,560 Speaker 1: And a mob formed broke in and murdered, murdered, hanged 483 00:28:28,600 --> 00:28:31,200 Speaker 1: and mutilated. So they shot them, and then some of 484 00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:33,119 Speaker 1: them they hang and they ripped apart the bodies. They 485 00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:37,720 Speaker 1: took body parts as trophies. Eleven Italian Americans killed in 486 00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:43,600 Speaker 1: eighteen ninety one in New Orleans for I mean maybe 487 00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:45,360 Speaker 1: one person, and I would be willing to bet a 488 00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:46,920 Speaker 1: whole lot of money it wasn't one of the eleven. 489 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:51,440 Speaker 1: From what one person did to the to an official 490 00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:55,560 Speaker 1: of the city of New Orleans, eleven lynchings all at once, 491 00:28:56,320 --> 00:28:59,640 Speaker 1: so there was a dark, there was a dark. His 492 00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:04,360 Speaker 1: rehear of discrimination against against immigrant groups, including Italian Americans 493 00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:09,239 Speaker 1: and Christopher Columbus is part of the the pride, and 494 00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:11,560 Speaker 1: that's why they'll talk about the pride. The Italian American 495 00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:16,400 Speaker 1: community fields with Hey, you know, we were early contributors 496 00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:18,880 Speaker 1: to this American project, right, it was it was an 497 00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:22,800 Speaker 1: Italian who even discovered this place. It's an Italian, a 498 00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:27,520 Speaker 1: Metago Vespucci, for whom this country is named. And so 499 00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:30,280 Speaker 1: that's all part of you know, it's interesting the left 500 00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:34,760 Speaker 1: sees this need for other groups to have heroes elevated, 501 00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:37,480 Speaker 1: and and they're right in many cases about the heroes 502 00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:40,280 Speaker 1: that they're choosing, right, you know, they're they're right to 503 00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:44,480 Speaker 1: want to elevate, you know, people from the Latino and 504 00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:47,160 Speaker 1: the African American community who have contributed to this country 505 00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:50,920 Speaker 1: throughout its history and ways. Absolutely, and I'm all for that, right, 506 00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:54,160 Speaker 1: I mean, I think that you could you could argue that, 507 00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:56,360 Speaker 1: you know, Frederick Douglas is one of the true founding 508 00:29:56,400 --> 00:30:00,400 Speaker 1: fathers in many ways in this country. But with Italian 509 00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:06,960 Speaker 1: Americans it's considered it's all a sacrifice to wokeness now 510 00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:09,680 Speaker 1: and that's why. Not far from where I'm doing the 511 00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:12,760 Speaker 1: show is the large statue of Christopher Columbus in Columbus Circle, 512 00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:16,120 Speaker 1: named for him, where I used to avoid the area 513 00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:18,120 Speaker 1: because that's where CNN's headquarters were and I didn't want 514 00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:20,800 Speaker 1: to bump into bump into Zucker and challenge him to 515 00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:24,440 Speaker 1: a breakdancing battle that would have been good Instagram content. 516 00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:29,239 Speaker 1: But now it's Christopher Columbus statue there has to be 517 00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:31,000 Speaker 1: guarded by the police because they know they're going to 518 00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:33,680 Speaker 1: it's going to be defaced. It's going to be defaced 519 00:30:33,840 --> 00:30:37,560 Speaker 1: because the Left is decided that the history of this 520 00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:43,760 Speaker 1: country is really a history of exploitation, rape, genocide, imperialism, murder, theft, 521 00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:48,520 Speaker 1: and exploitation. And what's interesting is that, I mean, depending 522 00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:51,160 Speaker 1: upon how they're going to set up their parameters for 523 00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:53,760 Speaker 1: how they would judge any country, you could say that 524 00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:57,160 Speaker 1: about any great civilization. There's always violence, there's always wars, 525 00:30:57,200 --> 00:31:01,800 Speaker 1: there's always you know, internet scene struggle, there's always all 526 00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:06,760 Speaker 1: of these things. But is that the majority? Is that 527 00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:09,160 Speaker 1: what most of the history really was, or did it 528 00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:14,200 Speaker 1: create a society where people overwhelmingly lived in peace, prosperity, 529 00:31:14,280 --> 00:31:18,160 Speaker 1: and some degree of happiness. America is the greatest nation 530 00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:21,000 Speaker 1: state that has ever been the greatest force for good 531 00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:23,840 Speaker 1: in the world, and it's only possible because of people 532 00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:26,320 Speaker 1: who are willing to take risks and willing to be leaders. 533 00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:31,480 Speaker 1: Christopher Columbus certainly played a large role in all of that. 534 00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:36,200 Speaker 1: And Columbus is somebody who I think we are right 535 00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:40,000 Speaker 1: to honor for the accomplishment and that is it for 536 00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 1: the discovery. No one is saying that everything he did 537 00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:45,240 Speaker 1: was great, or that he was a perfect or wonderful man, 538 00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:49,520 Speaker 1: or just saying this guy made it. It's like he 539 00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:52,200 Speaker 1: won a big race and we are giving him the 540 00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:55,600 Speaker 1: trophy for the race. And that's it. Thanks for listening 541 00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:58,600 Speaker 1: to the Best of Buck Daily podcast. For more Buck, 542 00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:01,920 Speaker 1: head to Buck Sexton dot com and remember to subscribe 543 00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:05,880 Speaker 1: to the podcast. But these are nonetheless the consequences of 544 00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:10,080 Speaker 1: her stated views on the law prevailed on the Supreme Court. 545 00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:14,120 Speaker 1: And if Republicans are successful until in this vacancy prior 546 00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:17,680 Speaker 1: to November tenth, well then we know these viewers will 547 00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:21,560 Speaker 1: almost certainly prevail. So that's what's at stake here, that's 548 00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:23,719 Speaker 1: what weighs heavily on me as we begin this here. 549 00:32:23,760 --> 00:32:27,160 Speaker 1: He's also weighs heavily on the minds of the Vermonters 550 00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:30,160 Speaker 1: I represent. I've heard from them off and then loudly 551 00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:34,080 Speaker 1: since Justice Skins breaks past, and they're scared, Judge Barrett. 552 00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:38,520 Speaker 1: They're scared that your confirmation would live the very healthcare 553 00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:43,000 Speaker 1: protections the millions of Americans that ought to maintain and 554 00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:47,600 Speaker 1: which Congress is repeatedly projected eliminate. They're scared that the 555 00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:50,560 Speaker 1: clock will be turned back to the time when women 556 00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:53,800 Speaker 1: had no right to control their own bodies and when 557 00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:58,400 Speaker 1: it was acceptable to discriminate against women in the workplace. 558 00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:08,719 Speaker 1: Showers your cold pasture of glay here, A yeah, maybe 559 00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:14,440 Speaker 1: it's time now do some oil painting in the backyard 560 00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:19,520 Speaker 1: with the grandkids. Did these guys ever stop? You know 561 00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:23,760 Speaker 1: how we have an age requirement for certain offices, right, 562 00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:25,440 Speaker 1: you have to be a certain age to be president. 563 00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:28,120 Speaker 1: You have a certain age to be in the United 564 00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:32,160 Speaker 1: States Senate, and a certain age for the House. You 565 00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:34,040 Speaker 1: know how we have that. I think we also at 566 00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:37,520 Speaker 1: a point now where we need to consider an upper 567 00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:42,880 Speaker 1: limit for elected office because people's egos are overtaking their 568 00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:47,800 Speaker 1: ability to think fairly and rationally about whether they are 569 00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:51,280 Speaker 1: in fact the most energetic, the most mentally acute, and 570 00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:54,120 Speaker 1: best representative for the people in their place, because they 571 00:33:54,160 --> 00:33:56,640 Speaker 1: just look People want to be important. You see this 572 00:33:56,680 --> 00:33:58,560 Speaker 1: in the media all the time. You see people get 573 00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:02,440 Speaker 1: addicted to being important and having other people listen to 574 00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:05,560 Speaker 1: them and having power and just being a normal person 575 00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:09,239 Speaker 1: is terrifying to folks who have been in that world, 576 00:34:09,239 --> 00:34:11,120 Speaker 1: have been a senator or for forty years. Look at 577 00:34:11,160 --> 00:34:14,719 Speaker 1: Joe Biden, I look at look at Lahey, and look 578 00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:17,760 Speaker 1: at Nancy Pelosi. And you know I'm telling you honestly. 579 00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:19,800 Speaker 1: I mean, I think Trump is agewise, at the upper 580 00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:22,400 Speaker 1: limit of what somebody should be to be the president. 581 00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:26,200 Speaker 1: And Trump is also somebody who has a tremendous amount 582 00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:29,279 Speaker 1: of energy and vitality for his age, and is in 583 00:34:29,440 --> 00:34:33,759 Speaker 1: very good health. In vaccines, we're speaking about the president's health. 584 00:34:34,560 --> 00:34:38,920 Speaker 1: He said that he's here. We are, folks, it's Monday. 585 00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:41,600 Speaker 1: I said, we gotta wait till Monday to know for sure. 586 00:34:41,640 --> 00:34:43,160 Speaker 1: The media is not going to focus on this. I'm 587 00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:45,920 Speaker 1: just taking take a little break from the judge stuff 588 00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:49,279 Speaker 1: for a second. Here Trump's saying he's great, good to 589 00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:53,319 Speaker 1: go back in action. Seventy four year old or maybe three, 590 00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:59,240 Speaker 1: but seventy plus year old Donald Trump, with some concern 591 00:34:59,280 --> 00:35:03,840 Speaker 1: over some additional aggravating factors, got COVID beat it in 592 00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:06,319 Speaker 1: three four days. He's telling you himself. He say he's fine. 593 00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:09,160 Speaker 1: Doesn't even happen anymore. Play fourteen. The note that you 594 00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:11,960 Speaker 1: have revealed from your doctor which says you are no 595 00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:16,080 Speaker 1: longer considered a transmission risk. Does this suggest you no 596 00:35:16,120 --> 00:35:20,080 Speaker 1: longer have COVID? Sir, Yes, And not only that, it 597 00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:23,759 Speaker 1: seems like I'm immune, so I can go way out 598 00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:25,799 Speaker 1: of abasement, to which I would have done anyway, and 599 00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:28,080 Speaker 1: which I did, because you have to run a country. 600 00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:30,759 Speaker 1: You have to get out of the basement. And it 601 00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:33,200 Speaker 1: looks like I'm immune for I don't know, maybe a 602 00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:36,000 Speaker 1: long time and maybe a short time. It could be 603 00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:40,279 Speaker 1: a lifetime. Nobody really knows. But I'm immune. So the 604 00:35:40,640 --> 00:35:43,480 Speaker 1: President is in very good shape. Here we are, folks, 605 00:35:43,640 --> 00:35:47,640 Speaker 1: a'm moment of celebration that the media will just ignore 606 00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:52,440 Speaker 1: President's fine. It wasn't just a stunt. It wasn't just 607 00:35:52,560 --> 00:35:55,719 Speaker 1: oh he wanted that shot outside the White House after 608 00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:57,879 Speaker 1: he'd been released from Walter read where he took off 609 00:35:57,880 --> 00:36:01,280 Speaker 1: his mask and they were all saying, he's mostly because 610 00:36:01,320 --> 00:36:04,879 Speaker 1: they're psychos, because they're crazy. An the president beat this thing. 611 00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:07,600 Speaker 1: And now, really you see the two narratives. You can 612 00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:10,399 Speaker 1: beat Joe Biden. You can be a h gotta wear 613 00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:12,839 Speaker 1: the mask all the time, and I gotta be you know, 614 00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:16,680 Speaker 1: hey man, I'm a mask mania. And you can avoid 615 00:36:16,680 --> 00:36:18,960 Speaker 1: people and stay in your basement. And look, I have 616 00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:21,520 Speaker 1: never said that anyone shouldn't. You know, that's freedom. You 617 00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:23,160 Speaker 1: want to stay in your basement, you want to not 618 00:36:23,239 --> 00:36:26,719 Speaker 1: live your life pline. But Trump now shows us that no, 619 00:36:26,840 --> 00:36:28,480 Speaker 1: you can. You should be able to make the decision 620 00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:30,960 Speaker 1: to live your life knowing that there is some risk 621 00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:34,480 Speaker 1: that you could get COVID nineteen and yes, knowing that 622 00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:36,360 Speaker 1: that means you could in fact transmit the disease to 623 00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:38,600 Speaker 1: other people as well, not intentionally. But this is the 624 00:36:38,640 --> 00:36:41,000 Speaker 1: world we live in. Viruses are in the air, Viruses 625 00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:42,839 Speaker 1: are all over us, actually all the time. People don't 626 00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:45,640 Speaker 1: ever talk about that, but it's true. It's really just 627 00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:47,920 Speaker 1: a question of your immune system. There's a constant, ongoing 628 00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:51,279 Speaker 1: battle between your immune system and microbes. But we don't 629 00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:54,920 Speaker 1: think about that very much. But the president beat it. 630 00:36:55,080 --> 00:36:56,960 Speaker 1: And there's a study out of Harvard just today that 631 00:36:57,000 --> 00:37:00,200 Speaker 1: says that looks like at least four months they think, 632 00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:03,560 Speaker 1: according to the study out of Harvard, Harvard Medical School 633 00:37:04,200 --> 00:37:07,400 Speaker 1: will give you protection. So that means Trump is fine. 634 00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:10,360 Speaker 1: Trump can go out there and he can shake hands 635 00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:13,440 Speaker 1: and high five and kiss babies and all. He's good 636 00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:17,080 Speaker 1: based on what we know about epidemiology, based upon what 637 00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:20,480 Speaker 1: we know of the virus, no reasonable, no reasonab believe otherwise, 638 00:37:21,160 --> 00:37:23,680 Speaker 1: certainly up until the election, and probably deep into twenty 639 00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:27,480 Speaker 1: twenty one. So who made the better decision? Really? Remember 640 00:37:27,480 --> 00:37:29,920 Speaker 1: they were all jumping on the president and saying, look 641 00:37:29,920 --> 00:37:32,279 Speaker 1: at a reckless he is. He got it. Yeah, And 642 00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:33,960 Speaker 1: they were saying he deserved it, and they were saying 643 00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:36,000 Speaker 1: they hope he had a bad, bad outcome. And the 644 00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:39,239 Speaker 1: President responded with, look, I'm the president. I gotta be 645 00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:42,440 Speaker 1: out there, i gotta do things. I've got to represent 646 00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:46,560 Speaker 1: my people. And that means that there's going to be 647 00:37:46,600 --> 00:37:48,600 Speaker 1: some risk. There is risk to the president every time 648 00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:49,960 Speaker 1: he goes to an even that's why he's got the 649 00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:51,919 Speaker 1: Secret Service with him. Right. This is not a risk 650 00:37:51,960 --> 00:37:55,440 Speaker 1: free job. As a number of US presidents from our 651 00:37:55,520 --> 00:37:58,239 Speaker 1: past unfortunately can't attest to. But if you look at 652 00:37:58,239 --> 00:38:01,560 Speaker 1: the history books and as recently as Ronald Reagan, it 653 00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:04,080 Speaker 1: was very apparent to presidents that there are risks with 654 00:38:04,239 --> 00:38:07,960 Speaker 1: that job. It is not risk free. There are risks 655 00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:10,759 Speaker 1: from bad people, there are risks from bad diseases. That's 656 00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:14,920 Speaker 1: just the reality. And now we have a president who 657 00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:18,520 Speaker 1: has recovered from the virus and is fine and is 658 00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:20,680 Speaker 1: a symboled to so many other folks. If seventy four 659 00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:23,120 Speaker 1: year old Donald Trump, now, look, I understand he got 660 00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:25,080 Speaker 1: very good care, but they used drugs on him that 661 00:38:25,120 --> 00:38:29,080 Speaker 1: they use on other people as well. But Donald Trump, yes, 662 00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:31,759 Speaker 1: he got in there early because he was being tested frequently. 663 00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:34,600 Speaker 1: But you know, first of all, forty percent of people 664 00:38:34,640 --> 00:38:37,040 Speaker 1: they tell us are asymptomatic entirely. So even if you 665 00:38:37,080 --> 00:38:40,040 Speaker 1: get this, the chances are that there's a good chance, 666 00:38:40,040 --> 00:38:42,120 Speaker 1: I should say, that you will have no symptoms, and 667 00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:44,840 Speaker 1: the chances are very high that you'll have very minimal symptoms. 668 00:38:45,560 --> 00:38:47,600 Speaker 1: And oh, who is even paying attention to the fact 669 00:38:47,600 --> 00:38:50,400 Speaker 1: that the World Health Organization one of its top officials 670 00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:52,480 Speaker 1: over the weekend. Now, look, I know we were bashing 671 00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:55,839 Speaker 1: the WHO because it was way too China friendly. With 672 00:38:55,880 --> 00:39:01,120 Speaker 1: this Wuhan coronavirus stuff in the beginning, fine, but they 673 00:39:01,160 --> 00:39:03,080 Speaker 1: do look at this issue, and we were told that 674 00:39:03,080 --> 00:39:04,799 Speaker 1: we should listen to them, and that it was only 675 00:39:04,840 --> 00:39:07,640 Speaker 1: just some kind of a Trump conspiracy to even question 676 00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:10,719 Speaker 1: the who WHO officials come out and said, look, we 677 00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:16,160 Speaker 1: should we should not have lockdowns as the go to policy. 678 00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:19,880 Speaker 1: Just said it, just like, look, we should not do this. 679 00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:24,879 Speaker 1: This does not make sense. It's too damaging, it's too 680 00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:32,319 Speaker 1: costly to society. Stop using lockdowns as the primary the 681 00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:35,200 Speaker 1: primary move here. But you know, look, there's a reason, friends, 682 00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:39,320 Speaker 1: that the long lockdowns we're seeing were never considered the 683 00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:42,360 Speaker 1: wise response to a pandemic in all the policy and 684 00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:44,680 Speaker 1: academic literature written on this, and there was a lot 685 00:39:44,719 --> 00:39:49,080 Speaker 1: of it before twenty twenty, actually until April of this year. 686 00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:52,479 Speaker 1: The media and our expert class have failed us. They're 687 00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:56,920 Speaker 1: never going to admit their catastrophic errors. But that's what 688 00:39:57,000 --> 00:40:01,400 Speaker 1: has happened here. That's the truth. Our fight against COVID 689 00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:07,439 Speaker 1: nineteen lockdowns did not work and exacted a terrible toll 690 00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:11,319 Speaker 1: on society, one that we can't even really begin to calculate. 691 00:40:12,120 --> 00:40:15,160 Speaker 1: A tremendous amount of dress and stress put on people 692 00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:17,719 Speaker 1: all across the country. And if you look at the 693 00:40:17,719 --> 00:40:20,440 Speaker 1: country by country breakdown, you know what one of the 694 00:40:20,680 --> 00:40:24,520 Speaker 1: look one of the single biggest differentiators here between countries 695 00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:27,160 Speaker 1: with really bad outcomes and countries that were pretty okay 696 00:40:27,200 --> 00:40:30,920 Speaker 1: with this has to do with the percentage of the 697 00:40:30,960 --> 00:40:37,040 Speaker 1: population that had serious health problems before COVID nineteen. That's 698 00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:40,120 Speaker 1: just the facts. This is just data and numbers. You know, 699 00:40:40,280 --> 00:40:42,680 Speaker 1: you look at South Korea, look at Japan. They have 700 00:40:42,800 --> 00:40:45,439 Speaker 1: far less diabetes and far less obesity than we do. 701 00:40:46,360 --> 00:40:49,000 Speaker 1: And so when you're and also when you add that 702 00:40:49,600 --> 00:40:52,080 Speaker 1: to the way that we calculate COVID depths, where there 703 00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:55,759 Speaker 1: are now clear examples right bright red line kind of 704 00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:59,480 Speaker 1: examples of someone who dies from an accident to our 705 00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:02,440 Speaker 1: self home, but they test in the person has COVID nineteen. 706 00:41:02,480 --> 00:41:04,600 Speaker 1: They say it's a COVID death, I mean, Dave. And 707 00:41:04,680 --> 00:41:08,160 Speaker 1: there are incentives in the system for doctors because you 708 00:41:08,160 --> 00:41:10,879 Speaker 1: get federal money for the hospital. There are there are 709 00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:13,520 Speaker 1: incentives for coding it as a COVID death. And no 710 00:41:13,560 --> 00:41:15,400 Speaker 1: one's going to challenge you or be upset of you 711 00:41:15,480 --> 00:41:18,520 Speaker 1: for saying it's a COVID death. In the sort of 712 00:41:18,560 --> 00:41:21,640 Speaker 1: consensus media democrat world. They're going to say, see, this 713 00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:26,319 Speaker 1: is a person who's taking the disease seriously. That's what 714 00:41:26,360 --> 00:41:30,200 Speaker 1: they'll say. It's pretty stunning. So we continue to see 715 00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:33,080 Speaker 1: this pretty stunning. Indeed, this is the best of Buck 716 00:41:33,200 --> 00:41:36,759 Speaker 1: Daily podcast, the top stories of the day from the 717 00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:40,600 Speaker 1: Buck Sexton Show. For more Buck head to buck Sexton 718 00:41:40,680 --> 00:41:44,719 Speaker 1: dot com and remember to subscribe to the podcast. So 719 00:41:44,800 --> 00:41:49,760 Speaker 1: we are now beginning the fastest economic recovery and history. 720 00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:53,640 Speaker 1: We created a record eleven point four million jobs just 721 00:41:53,719 --> 00:41:57,440 Speaker 1: in the last four months. That's the fastest ever. The 722 00:41:57,560 --> 00:42:01,520 Speaker 1: US has seen the smallest economic contract of any major 723 00:42:01,640 --> 00:42:04,120 Speaker 1: nation anywhere in the world. So we've seen the smallest 724 00:42:04,560 --> 00:42:07,680 Speaker 1: going down. If you look at it, that's an incredible statement. 725 00:42:07,680 --> 00:42:12,360 Speaker 1: Our opponents will crush to come back with unscientific lockdowns. 726 00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:14,439 Speaker 1: They want to lock everything down. Here we go again. 727 00:42:14,480 --> 00:42:18,839 Speaker 1: They want to lock it down. Now, we're not gonna 728 00:42:18,920 --> 00:42:21,439 Speaker 1: let it happen. We're not gonna let it happen. So 729 00:42:21,520 --> 00:42:23,439 Speaker 1: important you get out in vote. You got to get 730 00:42:23,440 --> 00:42:26,160 Speaker 1: out of votes. Not going to be a second lockdown. 731 00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:28,600 Speaker 1: Music to my ears, at least at the federal level, 732 00:42:28,680 --> 00:42:31,400 Speaker 1: especially as I have to sit here and worry about 733 00:42:31,440 --> 00:42:33,320 Speaker 1: what they're going to do in New York, where I 734 00:42:33,360 --> 00:42:35,480 Speaker 1: believe we are going to go into an extended lockdown 735 00:42:35,520 --> 00:42:37,920 Speaker 1: again in New York City, at least where I'm currently 736 00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:39,960 Speaker 1: doing the show. I remember when I spoke to the 737 00:42:39,960 --> 00:42:42,799 Speaker 1: President in May and I was in the Oval office 738 00:42:42,800 --> 00:42:45,040 Speaker 1: with them. Spent forty five minutes or so close to 739 00:42:45,080 --> 00:42:47,600 Speaker 1: an hour, I think, sitting there just talking about everything, 740 00:42:47,640 --> 00:42:49,120 Speaker 1: just the two of us, nobody else in the room, 741 00:42:50,200 --> 00:42:53,160 Speaker 1: and the one thing that I really wanted to hammer home, 742 00:42:53,560 --> 00:42:56,560 Speaker 1: and he completely agreed with me. To his credit, he 743 00:42:56,600 --> 00:42:58,279 Speaker 1: completely agreed with me on this. I just said, Sarah, 744 00:42:58,320 --> 00:43:01,000 Speaker 1: we can't do a second lockdown. This is this And 745 00:43:01,080 --> 00:43:03,120 Speaker 1: he said, Buck, there's not going to be a second lockdown. 746 00:43:03,800 --> 00:43:05,759 Speaker 1: We're going to put out the fires as they come up, 747 00:43:05,760 --> 00:43:07,759 Speaker 1: but there's not going to be a second lockdown. It was, 748 00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:09,399 Speaker 1: you know, that was a one time thing to get 749 00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:12,319 Speaker 1: us prepared because we were caught off guard by this. 750 00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:14,680 Speaker 1: You know, we didn't have the you know, the PPE 751 00:43:14,719 --> 00:43:16,560 Speaker 1: and the ventilators and all these things that everyone said 752 00:43:16,560 --> 00:43:19,600 Speaker 1: that they were going to need so badly. So so 753 00:43:19,600 --> 00:43:22,160 Speaker 1: far the President has has kept his promise on that one. 754 00:43:22,280 --> 00:43:23,799 Speaker 1: And I asked him said, promised me, you're not going 755 00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:25,080 Speaker 1: to do that. Certain he said, We're not going to 756 00:43:25,160 --> 00:43:27,560 Speaker 1: do that. So that's a promise so far that has 757 00:43:27,600 --> 00:43:31,279 Speaker 1: been kept. And I'm happy that the President understands why 758 00:43:31,320 --> 00:43:34,880 Speaker 1: that would be such a bad idea. But I'm also 759 00:43:34,960 --> 00:43:39,719 Speaker 1: deeply concerned because with Democrats, this is this is now 760 00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:42,440 Speaker 1: an article of faith. They're gonna want to have a 761 00:43:42,480 --> 00:43:44,960 Speaker 1: lockdown and then have Biden bring us out of it 762 00:43:45,000 --> 00:43:48,359 Speaker 1: and in his own good time, federal mask mandate. He's 763 00:43:48,400 --> 00:43:51,160 Speaker 1: saying this, and I keep asking people, if we're gonna 764 00:43:51,160 --> 00:43:52,880 Speaker 1: have a federal mask mandate, why not have a federal 765 00:43:52,920 --> 00:43:55,520 Speaker 1: mask and goggles mandate? I mean, why not really go 766 00:43:55,600 --> 00:43:58,360 Speaker 1: all in right? Why not we could make enough goggles 767 00:43:58,360 --> 00:44:00,319 Speaker 1: for everybody. Shouldn't we all have to where goggles and mask? 768 00:44:00,719 --> 00:44:03,120 Speaker 1: And then shouldn't we just do a full hooded ventilator 769 00:44:03,160 --> 00:44:05,960 Speaker 1: system so that you really are actually getting protect that works, 770 00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:08,399 Speaker 1: whether that would protect you from the virus. But why 771 00:44:08,520 --> 00:44:11,200 Speaker 1: too expensive? Too much? I thought this was about saving lives. 772 00:44:12,200 --> 00:44:14,400 Speaker 1: Notice how the way that they the way that they 773 00:44:14,480 --> 00:44:18,280 Speaker 1: argue with people like me who will say masks probably 774 00:44:18,360 --> 00:44:19,960 Speaker 1: have some effect. I don't know how big it is. 775 00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:22,239 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't deny that it is helpful in 776 00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:25,799 Speaker 1: some circumstances in some ways, but it's minimal, it's insufficient. 777 00:44:25,800 --> 00:44:28,439 Speaker 1: It's not enough to stop this thing. Obviously, it wasn't 778 00:44:28,560 --> 00:44:31,320 Speaker 1: enough to stop the Spanish influenza pandemic of nineteen eighteen, 779 00:44:31,680 --> 00:44:34,680 Speaker 1: when they had mask policies and cities by the way 780 00:44:35,040 --> 00:44:38,000 Speaker 1: and people were dying and numbs were Trust me, nobody 781 00:44:38,080 --> 00:44:40,320 Speaker 1: was like saying, hey, you know, I'm just going to 782 00:44:40,400 --> 00:44:42,279 Speaker 1: go out there. I shouldn't say nobody. There's always people, 783 00:44:42,320 --> 00:44:45,120 Speaker 1: but you know, people were wearing masks, folks, And I'm 784 00:44:45,120 --> 00:44:47,200 Speaker 1: sure the people that stopped wearing them in nineteen eighteen 785 00:44:47,239 --> 00:44:50,080 Speaker 1: were the ones who said, this isn't saving us, so 786 00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:53,520 Speaker 1: what are we even doing? But anyway, I just note 787 00:44:53,520 --> 00:44:58,160 Speaker 1: that the Biden campaign has made this a huge, a 788 00:44:58,280 --> 00:45:01,040 Speaker 1: huge virtue signal we all know, which is why I 789 00:45:01,320 --> 00:45:03,719 Speaker 1: don't think I've seen a photo of Joe Biden out 790 00:45:03,800 --> 00:45:06,239 Speaker 1: without a mask on. I don't even know in how 791 00:45:06,280 --> 00:45:09,319 Speaker 1: many months, other than at the debate. Obviously, who knows 792 00:45:09,320 --> 00:45:13,719 Speaker 1: that they're even going to be a second debate. But 793 00:45:13,760 --> 00:45:16,439 Speaker 1: I'll tell you this. I rode on an Amtrak train 794 00:45:16,600 --> 00:45:20,560 Speaker 1: yesterday and I just have to kind of laugh. Here's 795 00:45:20,600 --> 00:45:25,640 Speaker 1: what here's the little window into the future of what 796 00:45:25,719 --> 00:45:31,920 Speaker 1: you get if you allow democrat status types to determine 797 00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:33,960 Speaker 1: how we're going to respond to this pandemic. For the future, 798 00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:35,520 Speaker 1: this is what your life is going to be like, 799 00:45:35,719 --> 00:45:39,200 Speaker 1: not just for all of next year, maybe deep into 800 00:45:39,239 --> 00:45:42,719 Speaker 1: twenty twenty two. You're going to have policies like I 801 00:45:42,719 --> 00:45:45,799 Speaker 1: sat sat there on amtrack dealing with this where you 802 00:45:45,920 --> 00:45:49,279 Speaker 1: have no one's allowed to sit next to you. Now, 803 00:45:49,320 --> 00:45:53,040 Speaker 1: I think maybe if you're of the same it's same household, 804 00:45:53,840 --> 00:45:56,000 Speaker 1: but who even knows? With that, you'll see these experts 805 00:45:56,000 --> 00:46:01,000 Speaker 1: that are right. Hey, when you're having you know, special 806 00:46:01,360 --> 00:46:04,920 Speaker 1: fun fun time with the your significant other, well, you 807 00:46:05,000 --> 00:46:07,440 Speaker 1: gotta make sure you wear that surgical mask to protect 808 00:46:07,440 --> 00:46:09,799 Speaker 1: the protect them from COVID. That's a real thing. I 809 00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:12,120 Speaker 1: know you're some of you are giggling. That's a real thing. 810 00:46:12,440 --> 00:46:15,600 Speaker 1: Gotta wear the mask for special fun fun time. Okay, 811 00:46:16,160 --> 00:46:18,720 Speaker 1: that's the craziest thing, I think, I mean, how much? 812 00:46:19,280 --> 00:46:21,080 Speaker 1: And then take the mask off while you sleep next 813 00:46:21,080 --> 00:46:22,600 Speaker 1: to each other in the same room, in the same 814 00:46:22,640 --> 00:46:24,040 Speaker 1: bed for the rest of the night. Right, But you 815 00:46:24,040 --> 00:46:26,080 Speaker 1: know a husband and wife doesn't matter, gotta protect each other. 816 00:46:26,080 --> 00:46:29,040 Speaker 1: It's absurd, it's stupid. We all know it's stupid. But 817 00:46:29,160 --> 00:46:31,399 Speaker 1: I just point out all the stupid policies and people 818 00:46:31,440 --> 00:46:32,840 Speaker 1: get mad at me, and I say, well, are we 819 00:46:32,920 --> 00:46:36,040 Speaker 1: just supposed to all do dumb things because some people 820 00:46:36,080 --> 00:46:38,440 Speaker 1: are scared and so they get to make all the 821 00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:41,000 Speaker 1: decisions for all the rest of us. You know, you 822 00:46:41,080 --> 00:46:44,040 Speaker 1: could go swimming in the ocean and get eaten by 823 00:46:44,040 --> 00:46:46,879 Speaker 1: a shark tomorrow. It can happen. In fact, I think 824 00:46:46,920 --> 00:46:51,000 Speaker 1: the most common places in the country for sure. I 825 00:46:51,040 --> 00:46:52,880 Speaker 1: think the most common place in the world for shark 826 00:46:52,880 --> 00:46:55,360 Speaker 1: attack might even be on the coast of Florida. I 827 00:46:55,360 --> 00:46:57,680 Speaker 1: think it's what's right up there. It's coast of Florida, 828 00:46:57,760 --> 00:47:01,040 Speaker 1: east coast of Australia and off South Africa. That's where 829 00:47:01,080 --> 00:47:03,239 Speaker 1: you have the most certainly the most shark attacks in total. 830 00:47:03,280 --> 00:47:05,600 Speaker 1: I think the most fatal shark attacks too. Now why 831 00:47:05,640 --> 00:47:09,680 Speaker 1: am I talking about shark attacks Because if I ran 832 00:47:09,719 --> 00:47:12,040 Speaker 1: around telling everybody who's going into the ocean, what are 833 00:47:12,040 --> 00:47:16,600 Speaker 1: you doing? You could be eaten by a shark. Technically true, 834 00:47:16,680 --> 00:47:19,919 Speaker 1: but I think people should be allowed to swim. Now 835 00:47:20,000 --> 00:47:22,600 Speaker 1: I understand they're far more people getting COVID shark attacks. 836 00:47:22,600 --> 00:47:25,719 Speaker 1: But I'm just saying that when it comes to day 837 00:47:25,719 --> 00:47:28,800 Speaker 1: to day risk mitigation or our own lives, people should 838 00:47:28,800 --> 00:47:32,479 Speaker 1: be allowed to make their own decisions. And for people 839 00:47:32,480 --> 00:47:34,959 Speaker 1: who say things like, oh, well, look what about seatbelt laws, bucket, 840 00:47:34,960 --> 00:47:37,120 Speaker 1: I'd say, yeah, plenty of people don't wear their seat belts. 841 00:47:37,120 --> 00:47:39,080 Speaker 1: I got news for you. Plenty people still don't do it, 842 00:47:40,000 --> 00:47:42,480 Speaker 1: still don't do it. And also the fine for now 843 00:47:42,520 --> 00:47:46,040 Speaker 1: wearing a seatbelt isn't fifteen hundred dollars or prison time. 844 00:47:46,080 --> 00:47:50,239 Speaker 1: It's like a fifty dollars. Who cares? And you know 845 00:47:50,280 --> 00:47:53,080 Speaker 1: that's also just affecting you, that's not affecting anybody else. 846 00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:57,160 Speaker 1: And it's such a minor inconvenience that even I think 847 00:47:57,200 --> 00:48:00,359 Speaker 1: some libertarians say, all, I mean, you know whatever, wearing 848 00:48:00,360 --> 00:48:02,840 Speaker 1: a mask, it's not a minor inconvenience. It's really annoying. 849 00:48:03,480 --> 00:48:08,399 Speaker 1: It's oppressive, it's psychologically deleterious. I really have I believe 850 00:48:08,400 --> 00:48:09,879 Speaker 1: that I'm gonna go to the gym today. I'm gonna 851 00:48:09,880 --> 00:48:13,319 Speaker 1: be doing deadlifts with a fricking mask on, like an 852 00:48:13,320 --> 00:48:15,600 Speaker 1: idiot alone, because no one else will even go to 853 00:48:15,640 --> 00:48:17,920 Speaker 1: the gym because they're so scared where I am alone 854 00:48:18,480 --> 00:48:21,480 Speaker 1: in you know, a room that's probably fifteen hundred square 855 00:48:21,520 --> 00:48:23,799 Speaker 1: feet with the windows open. But got to wear that 856 00:48:23,840 --> 00:48:27,279 Speaker 1: mask while I'm deadlifting. It's it's insane, right. But so 857 00:48:27,560 --> 00:48:29,719 Speaker 1: back to the Amtrak. So I'm on the Amtrak where 858 00:48:29,719 --> 00:48:31,640 Speaker 1: you know, blue collar Joe takes it. You know how 859 00:48:31,680 --> 00:48:35,719 Speaker 1: long the Amtrak Acela is from Delaware to to DC 860 00:48:35,960 --> 00:48:39,160 Speaker 1: to Capitol Hill. It's actually like the greatest commute imaginable 861 00:48:39,440 --> 00:48:42,080 Speaker 1: in a lot of ways, at forty five minutes. I 862 00:48:42,120 --> 00:48:44,160 Speaker 1: don't know, maybe it's forty five minutes to Baltimore, but anyway, 863 00:48:44,200 --> 00:48:46,560 Speaker 1: it's like an hour. It's like an hour. It's quick. 864 00:48:47,320 --> 00:48:49,440 Speaker 1: And that's what Joe Biden was doing, you know, once 865 00:48:49,520 --> 00:48:51,319 Speaker 1: or twice a week or something. It wasn't even like 866 00:48:51,360 --> 00:48:54,240 Speaker 1: that often. It's crazy. But I'm on the ism slup. 867 00:48:54,280 --> 00:48:55,960 Speaker 1: They won't let somebody sitting next to you, but you 868 00:48:56,040 --> 00:48:58,719 Speaker 1: have people mandated because it's a sign seating now sit 869 00:48:58,800 --> 00:49:01,120 Speaker 1: in front of you and behind you. And I was 870 00:49:01,160 --> 00:49:03,799 Speaker 1: sitting across from somebody and I kid you not, she 871 00:49:03,840 --> 00:49:07,840 Speaker 1: had she had a little mask on and she pulled 872 00:49:07,880 --> 00:49:10,640 Speaker 1: the classic Biden maneuver. Remember when Biden pulled down his 873 00:49:10,719 --> 00:49:12,520 Speaker 1: mask to cough into his hand, and then pulled his 874 00:49:12,560 --> 00:49:16,040 Speaker 1: mask bask back up again. She had a coughing fit, 875 00:49:16,719 --> 00:49:18,560 Speaker 1: you know, coughing right, you know, right next to me. 876 00:49:19,680 --> 00:49:22,360 Speaker 1: Pulled her mask off for the coughing fit. So just like, 877 00:49:22,880 --> 00:49:25,680 Speaker 1: you know, based on what we're all told, just like virus, 878 00:49:25,840 --> 00:49:28,600 Speaker 1: virus everywhere, right, all kinds of whatever. She's got, just 879 00:49:28,640 --> 00:49:31,879 Speaker 1: coughing all over the place, and then pulled her mask 880 00:49:31,960 --> 00:49:36,800 Speaker 1: back up. And I'm sitting here like, oh gee, thanks, 881 00:49:37,400 --> 00:49:40,320 Speaker 1: So so I get the coughing, which is actually expelling 882 00:49:40,360 --> 00:49:42,759 Speaker 1: the virus you know, fifteen feet or whatever it is. 883 00:49:43,040 --> 00:49:45,600 Speaker 1: But but the mask wearing, you know, when you're breathing. 884 00:49:45,840 --> 00:49:49,040 Speaker 1: It's so dumb folks. And then I sit around people, 885 00:49:49,040 --> 00:49:51,880 Speaker 1: who are you eating a bagel of cream cheese? No 886 00:49:52,040 --> 00:49:54,719 Speaker 1: mask on for you know, thirty or forty minutes, but 887 00:49:54,800 --> 00:49:56,640 Speaker 1: for the last twenty minutes of the trip, they put 888 00:49:56,640 --> 00:49:58,799 Speaker 1: that mask back on because that's going to protect us. 889 00:49:59,360 --> 00:50:02,920 Speaker 1: It's idios, you know, it's idiocy. It makes no sense. 890 00:50:03,239 --> 00:50:06,080 Speaker 1: Don't listen to the lockdown libs who judge you and 891 00:50:06,200 --> 00:50:07,200 Speaker 1: mask shame you.
