1 00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:03,800 Speaker 1: Welcome back in our number three, Clay Travis Buck Sexton 2 00:00:03,960 --> 00:00:07,240 Speaker 1: Show Buck. We'll be back on Tuesday. I'm sure we'll 3 00:00:07,280 --> 00:00:10,760 Speaker 1: be talking a lot all next week about the upcoming 4 00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:14,360 Speaker 1: debate on Thursday and then reacting to it on Friday. 5 00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:18,079 Speaker 1: It's important to remember and remind yourselves as well that 6 00:00:18,120 --> 00:00:22,240 Speaker 1: there are still many major Supreme Court decisions outstanding that 7 00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:26,760 Speaker 1: also could come down next week, maybe even the week after, 8 00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:30,760 Speaker 1: but we will see exactly there, in particular the presidential 9 00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:34,479 Speaker 1: immunity case, as well as the question of whether or 10 00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:38,040 Speaker 1: not the jan sixth political prisoners, I think it's fair 11 00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:42,000 Speaker 1: to call them that can be prosecuted under a Sarbines 12 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:48,760 Speaker 1: Oxley corporate charge basically obstructing an official event, official proceeding. 13 00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:52,240 Speaker 1: Still to be determined whether or not that is permissible. 14 00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:56,520 Speaker 1: So all of that on the horizon, still heading this way. 15 00:00:56,720 --> 00:01:01,160 Speaker 1: Next week promises to be potentially a really important week's 16 00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:05,720 Speaker 1: worth of news. Some news during this last couple of 17 00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:10,080 Speaker 1: minutes I'm reading from a post from Donald Trump himself. 18 00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:16,960 Speaker 1: Sean O'Brien, the General president of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, 19 00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:22,479 Speaker 1: has accepted my invitation to speak at the RNC our 20 00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:26,920 Speaker 1: Great Convention will unify Americans, demonstrate to the nation's working 21 00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:30,360 Speaker 1: families they come first. When I'm back in the White House, 22 00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:34,759 Speaker 1: the hard working Teamsters and all working Americans will once 23 00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:37,240 Speaker 1: again have a country they can afford to live in 24 00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:41,560 Speaker 1: and be respected around the world. Sean, I look forward 25 00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:46,120 Speaker 1: to seeing you represent the Teamsters in Milwaukee. Together, we 26 00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 1: can make America great again. Research request for the team 27 00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:57,320 Speaker 1: in New York. The Teamsters have not typically endorsed a 28 00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:01,200 Speaker 1: Republican candidate. I don't believe that they have endorsed anyone 29 00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:04,720 Speaker 1: at all yet. My understanding is that both Biden and 30 00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:08,240 Speaker 1: Trump have made their pitch. I believe this will be, 31 00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:13,200 Speaker 1: as a result, somewhat unprecedented in that you will have, 32 00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:18,280 Speaker 1: unless the Teamsters are in fact going to intro endorse Trump, 33 00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 1: which I do not believe they have, you will have 34 00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:26,799 Speaker 1: a individual speaking in Milwaukee who is neither a Trump 35 00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:31,959 Speaker 1: nor Biden's supporter. Again, I believe I'm correcting all those facts. 36 00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 1: This is just breaking news right now. Trump has just 37 00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 1: posted what I read for you. I cannot think of 38 00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:41,560 Speaker 1: very many times when someone would speak at a convention 39 00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:47,080 Speaker 1: and potentially be supporting the other side. So is this 40 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:51,040 Speaker 1: a little bit of a hint about the possibility of 41 00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:56,200 Speaker 1: the Teamsters maybe coming down on the side of Trump, 42 00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:59,960 Speaker 1: and if it is, or even if they just don't 43 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 1: make an official endorsement, this would potentially have seismic impact 44 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:07,600 Speaker 1: because I just laid out for all of you that 45 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:11,640 Speaker 1: effectively this feels like a big ten election, And for 46 00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:12,840 Speaker 1: those of you who don't know, when I say a 47 00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:16,440 Speaker 1: big ten election, I mean the big ten conference in 48 00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:21,800 Speaker 1: that Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Michigan are going to decide who 49 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:24,600 Speaker 1: the next President of the United States is. Maybe Minnesota. 50 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:28,240 Speaker 1: By the way, Minnesota, I saw a poll recently that 51 00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 1: had Trump up one. I shared that with you guys. 52 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:36,600 Speaker 1: But if Minnesota goes Trump, then Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin 53 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:39,880 Speaker 1: are going Trump two. And I also think there is 54 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 1: a strong likelihood that all three of these states moved together. 55 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:49,840 Speaker 1: That means that much like in twenty sixteen when Trump 56 00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:54,000 Speaker 1: swept Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin, and then in twenty twenty 57 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 1: when Biden swept those three, I think the likelihood is 58 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 1: that all three of these states move in ten because 59 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:04,680 Speaker 1: whatever motivates someone in Pennsylvania to vote for Trump or 60 00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 1: Biden is not going to be that dissimilar from what 61 00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 1: would motivate somebody in Michigan. This matters, by the way, 62 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 1: because it feels to me on some level like the 63 00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 1: entire American presidential election is just coming down to Michigan. 64 00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:23,440 Speaker 1: Am I crazy? I've been I've been making this argument. 65 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:27,880 Speaker 1: Am I crazy to make this argument? Large Jewish population 66 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:33,040 Speaker 1: in Michigan, Huge Arab population in southeast Michigan, the Dearborn 67 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 1: area in particular, still very large manufacturing teamsterur based car construction, 68 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:46,640 Speaker 1: car manufacturing, very much of a blue collar base there 69 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 1: that would traditionally have been much of the base of 70 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:55,719 Speaker 1: the Democrat Party that now has in many ways shifted 71 00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:59,560 Speaker 1: and begun to at least be up for grabs with 72 00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:02,880 Speaker 1: the possible ability that the overall membership of the Teamsters 73 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:08,240 Speaker 1: may end up voting for Donald Trump over Joe Biden. Again, 74 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:12,239 Speaker 1: just very important to pay attention to what's going on there. 75 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:16,960 Speaker 1: It feels in many ways to me like we basically 76 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:21,200 Speaker 1: have a governor's race in Michigan between Biden and Trump, 77 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:28,520 Speaker 1: and whicheverone wins that local battleground state is going to 78 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:30,920 Speaker 1: be president of the United States. That's why I said 79 00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:36,960 Speaker 1: Democrats cool calculus could be to put Gretchen Whitmer on 80 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:41,080 Speaker 1: the ticket alongside of Josh Shapiro. I haven't heard anybody 81 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:46,240 Speaker 1: else argue that Democrat or Republican publicly, but it's what 82 00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:50,440 Speaker 1: to me, all of the calculus, if you're playing chess, 83 00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 1: would support. But in the meantime, much of what you're 84 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 1: seeing going back and forth between Trump and Biden, the 85 00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:05,120 Speaker 1: motivation for Biden to be difficult on Israel and Benjamin 86 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:09,000 Speaker 1: net Yahoo is in my opinion, not actually believing that 87 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 1: Israel is behaving inappropriately in the way that they've responded 88 00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:16,919 Speaker 1: to October seventh, but in arguing that what's really going 89 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:20,720 Speaker 1: on here is Biden is trying to preserve both the 90 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:24,120 Speaker 1: Arab support and the Jewish support so that he can 91 00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:29,400 Speaker 1: win the state of Michigan, and Trump recognizing rightly that 92 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:32,240 Speaker 1: if he is able to win Michigan, he's going to 93 00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:36,040 Speaker 1: be president of the United States. Biden has to win 94 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,720 Speaker 1: all three of those states. If Trump plucks off Michigan 95 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 1: or Pennsylvania or Wisconsin, there's about a ninety nine percent 96 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:45,159 Speaker 1: chance he's going to be president of the United States, 97 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 1: because the electoral college math basically doesn't add up unless 98 00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:53,400 Speaker 1: Biden is able to win all three of those states. 99 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:57,839 Speaker 1: Trump takes one, He's going to be the next president 100 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:01,040 Speaker 1: of the United States. Biden knows it. So really, what 101 00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:04,600 Speaker 1: you're seeing there is a battle over who's going to 102 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:09,840 Speaker 1: be the governor of Michigan. It fills very small, but 103 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:12,320 Speaker 1: I think as this process plays out over the next 104 00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 1: four and a half months, what you're going to see 105 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:18,840 Speaker 1: is the presidential election increasingly is basically just going to 106 00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:23,200 Speaker 1: move to Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania. All the rallies are 107 00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:25,120 Speaker 1: going to be there, all of the money is going 108 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:27,680 Speaker 1: to be spent there. Just get ready for it. Speaking 109 00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:32,760 Speaker 1: of money, and this is significant, you probably have heard 110 00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:35,320 Speaker 1: a lot of talk if you've been paying much attention 111 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 1: about Biden's big cash advantage. Oh, Biden's going to have 112 00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 1: so much more money than Trump. That's conventional wisdom. Has 113 00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 1: now been proven wrong, at least as we sit here today. 114 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:51,560 Speaker 1: Joe Biden now has less money to spend than Donald 115 00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 1: Trump does. Trump and the RNC raised one hundred and 116 00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 1: forty one million dollars in eighty one million dollars raised 117 00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 1: by Biden and the DNC. Right now, Trump has one 118 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:13,000 Speaker 1: hundred and sixteen and a half million dollars on hand, 119 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:16,320 Speaker 1: at least he did at the beginning of June, and 120 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:22,040 Speaker 1: Biden has ninety one point six million. This is reflective 121 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 1: of the massive amounts of money that came rolling in 122 00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:29,880 Speaker 1: for Trump as soon as he was convicted of the 123 00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:33,120 Speaker 1: thirty four felon accounts in New York City and the 124 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:38,120 Speaker 1: numbers that I saw, twenty five percent of all of 125 00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:41,880 Speaker 1: those donors are first time Trump donors, that is, people 126 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:47,320 Speaker 1: who have never given money before. And the average donation amount, 127 00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 1: I thought this was very interesting seventy dollars and twenty 128 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:55,400 Speaker 1: seven cents. I know a lot of you out there 129 00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:57,719 Speaker 1: are struggling on a day to day basis because of 130 00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:01,319 Speaker 1: the rising cost of goods to meet your family budgets, 131 00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 1: to be able to have enough money left in your 132 00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:07,440 Speaker 1: bank accounts to be able to handle all of your necessities. 133 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:11,320 Speaker 1: But I did think that was interesting. Seventy dollars twenty 134 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:15,959 Speaker 1: seven cents average donation. These are small dollar donors, and 135 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:18,360 Speaker 1: I'm not trying to demean it by saying small dollars. 136 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:20,840 Speaker 1: There's people out there with millions of dollars they can give, 137 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,920 Speaker 1: super rich people, and typically those people are very engaged 138 00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:29,240 Speaker 1: in the political process. This means there's a lot of 139 00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:33,920 Speaker 1: grassroots enthusiasm for Trump. Also, this number really jumps out 140 00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:39,680 Speaker 1: of me. Twenty five percent first time donors. Whatever you 141 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 1: think of Trump, isn't it kind of staggering that we 142 00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:47,760 Speaker 1: could be sitting here in June of twenty twenty four, 143 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 1: nearly nine years after Trump first came down the escalator 144 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:56,160 Speaker 1: at Trump Tower to begin his presidential campaign and to 145 00:09:56,200 --> 00:10:00,280 Speaker 1: begin his life as a politician, and we could he'll 146 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 1: be in that campaign getting twenty five percent at least 147 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:07,800 Speaker 1: according to the campaign new donors. These are people coming 148 00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:10,360 Speaker 1: off the sidelines who had never given a dollar to 149 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:14,400 Speaker 1: Trump before, and suddenly, nine years into his political career, 150 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,760 Speaker 1: they said, enough is enough. I'm putting my money where 151 00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:20,640 Speaker 1: my mouth is. Not only presumably am I going to 152 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:24,240 Speaker 1: be a Trump supporter, I'm willing to go into my wallet, 153 00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:28,559 Speaker 1: pull out my credit card, write a check, do whatever 154 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 1: is necessary to make my voice heard. That's got to 155 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:35,640 Speaker 1: be super encouraging, because yes, Biden's going out and he's 156 00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 1: going to have George Clooney and Julia Roberts and Robert 157 00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:44,079 Speaker 1: de Niro and all the frankly aging Hollywood celebrities, Steven Spielberg, 158 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:47,600 Speaker 1: Kate Capshaw, all those people donating massive amounts of money 159 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:53,440 Speaker 1: to him. But then you've got normal, average, everyday Americans 160 00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:57,319 Speaker 1: who are just fed up with Joe Biden using his 161 00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:01,800 Speaker 1: Department of Justice as a political arm to try to 162 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:04,240 Speaker 1: put his chief political rival in prison for the rest 163 00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:08,160 Speaker 1: of his life. And they flooded the Donald Trump website 164 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,760 Speaker 1: to the tune of now Trump having more money to spend, 165 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 1: it's going to be fascinating to see how that money 166 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 1: gets spent, and we may reach we may have already reached. 167 00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:22,080 Speaker 1: I mentioned being down in Georgia the past several days. 168 00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:26,320 Speaker 1: Every time I looked up, there was a dementia or 169 00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:30,280 Speaker 1: dishonesty anti Biden ad on local television. 170 00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 2: There. 171 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:33,160 Speaker 1: Those of you in Georgia probably see these all the time. 172 00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:35,400 Speaker 1: I'm not in the battleground state. I don't see that 173 00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:39,480 Speaker 1: many political ads. At some point, there's a law of 174 00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:43,480 Speaker 1: diminishing returns. Remember in South Carolina, what did Jamie Harrison 175 00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:46,839 Speaker 1: spend like one hundred million dollars on the Senate race 176 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:49,640 Speaker 1: against Lindsey Graham and he's still lost by ten points. 177 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:53,800 Speaker 1: At some point, people do just start tuning out all 178 00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:56,560 Speaker 1: of the noise. You put it on mute during the 179 00:11:56,559 --> 00:12:00,160 Speaker 1: commercial breaks, you roll your eyes and you change the channel. Then, 180 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:03,560 Speaker 1: if you're a diehard political junkie, at some point you've 181 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:06,320 Speaker 1: seen all these ads so many times that they cease 182 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:10,040 Speaker 1: having a substantial impact. We'll talk about that when we 183 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:15,400 Speaker 1: come back. I also want to play for you because 184 00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:17,440 Speaker 1: I don't want to forget the fact that the wide 185 00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:21,080 Speaker 1: open southern border is having real consequences and real cost 186 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:25,440 Speaker 1: on many innocent Americans, and they're talking about it in 187 00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:29,080 Speaker 1: a way on MSNBC on Joy Reid Show that I 188 00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:30,600 Speaker 1: think you need to hear. I'm going to play that 189 00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:33,120 Speaker 1: for you and we come back. Also, Kelly Leffler speaking 190 00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:35,640 Speaker 1: of the state of Georgia. She's going to be with 191 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:37,600 Speaker 1: us at the bottom of the hour to talk about 192 00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:40,440 Speaker 1: what she sees on the ground down there, former senator 193 00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:43,199 Speaker 1: representing the great State of Georgia. We'll talk with her 194 00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:45,600 Speaker 1: in a bit when we come back, But first I 195 00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:50,319 Speaker 1: want to tell you all about my friends that are 196 00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 1: helping you out.

If it 218 00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:23,000 Speaker 1: hasn't already happened in your state or your local community, 219 00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:26,920 Speaker 1: it probably will in the months to come. Certainly in 220 00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:29,760 Speaker 1: the years to come, someone who is illegally in this 221 00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:34,000 Speaker 1: country is going to commit a crime that is devastating 222 00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:37,640 Speaker 1: to the people in your community. We don't know when 223 00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:41,280 Speaker 1: it will happen, if it hasn't already happened, but we 224 00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:44,800 Speaker 1: do know that, unlike crimes that are committed by American citizens, 225 00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:48,320 Speaker 1: if we actually enforce the law, the people committing these 226 00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:52,080 Speaker 1: crimes would never be here and their innocent victims would 227 00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:57,760 Speaker 1: not be taken advantage of. Yet it's considered unacceptable to 228 00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:05,000 Speaker 1: even have this conversation on MSNBC. Where when young innocent people, 229 00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:08,080 Speaker 1: whether it's Lake and Riley or many others, the mother 230 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:11,520 Speaker 1: of five in Maryland who was just murdered in cold 231 00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:15,320 Speaker 1: blood by illegal immigrants, when they are victims. And by 232 00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:21,200 Speaker 1: the way, this is who typically commits violent crimes. Young men. 233 00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:26,720 Speaker 1: Overwhelmingly young men are entering this country. We don't have 234 00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:30,080 Speaker 1: a lot of eighty year old grandmas running around with 235 00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:34,080 Speaker 1: guns blowing people away. We don't have them committing violent crimes. 236 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:38,160 Speaker 1: Most all, violent crime is committed by men sixteen to 237 00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:40,840 Speaker 1: forty years old, sixteen to fifty. If you want to 238 00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:43,480 Speaker 1: expand it a little bit, go look and it's skewed 239 00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:46,960 Speaker 1: younger right, Men in their twenties and thirties, teenage years 240 00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:50,960 Speaker 1: commit the majority of these violent crimes. Who are the 241 00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:54,360 Speaker 1: people that are actually coming into this country young men, 242 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:59,440 Speaker 1: and who are they committing violence crimes against often American 243 00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:03,000 Speaker 1: citizens who should have never been their victims. This is 244 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:10,040 Speaker 1: the conversation that they had about this recently on MSNBC. Listen. 245 00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:11,840 Speaker 2: This is one of the reasons that people have these 246 00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:14,480 Speaker 2: sort of thinking, this sort of thinking. Here's the three 247 00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:19,120 Speaker 2: cable networks reporting of this. Was our banner said, soon 248 00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:23,200 Speaker 2: Biden announces legal protections for undocumented spouses a citizens. CNN's 249 00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:26,640 Speaker 2: banner said, Biden announces new protections for some undocumented spouses. 250 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:29,760 Speaker 2: Here was Fox's banner. Migrant arrested for raping thirteen year 251 00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:32,120 Speaker 2: old in years. Yes, and so I think that's part 252 00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:33,280 Speaker 2: of the problem. Says that you have a. 253 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:36,680 Speaker 4: Lot of the fear mongery exactly, and it's not. 254 00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:40,800 Speaker 1: I mean, you hear them laughing there. That's Jaiapaul, by 255 00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 1: the way, congresswoman talking with Joy Reid on MSNBC. You 256 00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:46,960 Speaker 1: hear them laughing there. But this is not fear mongering. 257 00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:52,240 Speaker 1: It isn't fear mongering to discuss who is committing violent crimes. 258 00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:57,040 Speaker 1: In fact, it's actually willful blindness to refuse to acknowledge 259 00:16:57,400 --> 00:17:00,280 Speaker 1: who is committing violent crimes in this country. And one 260 00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:05,280 Speaker 1: of the toxic aspects of identity politics in particular is 261 00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:08,879 Speaker 1: in this nation, we seem to only really care about 262 00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:12,560 Speaker 1: victims of violent crime in much of the country when 263 00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:18,480 Speaker 1: white men are involved. That's the reality, because the vast 264 00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:20,919 Speaker 1: majority of crime in this country, white men aren't involved 265 00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:24,679 Speaker 1: in it all. But compare the amount of coverage that 266 00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:27,520 Speaker 1: you get on MSNBC or CNN, and I don't even 267 00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:29,640 Speaker 1: think that it matters because it could be a white 268 00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:33,760 Speaker 1: guy from Russia, or it could be a white guy 269 00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:38,320 Speaker 1: from some other European country Ukraine, who's sneaking into our country. 270 00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:41,640 Speaker 1: If they're committing a crime, regardless of what their racial 271 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:45,160 Speaker 1: background is, it's a crime that should have never been 272 00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:49,680 Speaker 1: allowed to occur. Joe Biden has blood on his hands 273 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:54,840 Speaker 1: for every single American citizen who is violently attacked by 274 00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:57,600 Speaker 1: someone who should have never been here. It could have 275 00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:00,720 Speaker 1: been stopped. It should have been stopped. To me, Biden 276 00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:04,560 Speaker 1: should be charged as an accessory in every single one 277 00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:08,280 Speaker 1: of these crimes. Look, if your home's like mine, surrounded 278 00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:11,080 Speaker 1: by trees, you can eventually count on a gutter problem, 279 00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:13,200 Speaker 1: getting on a ladder doing the heavy duty cleaning.

I think I saw you a couple 298 00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:21,120 Speaker 1: of months ago down in April at your event. Really 299 00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:24,280 Speaker 1: enjoyed speaking at the Greater Georgia event you put on. 300 00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:27,520 Speaker 1: I know you're fighting battles every single day down in Georgia. 301 00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:30,600 Speaker 1: How optimistic are you as we sit about four and 302 00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:33,520 Speaker 1: a half months out that Georgia is going to flip 303 00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:36,040 Speaker 1: back to a red state and Trump is going to 304 00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:37,840 Speaker 1: beat Biden in your state. 305 00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:42,120 Speaker 4: Well, Claient, it's great to be back with you. We 306 00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:44,600 Speaker 4: had a blast together and Georgia is so grateful for 307 00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:48,480 Speaker 4: you coming down and speaking to hundreds of grassroots activists 308 00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:51,239 Speaker 4: and leaders in Georgia. You know, what we're doing in 309 00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:53,240 Speaker 4: Georgia is going to put us in a very different 310 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:56,199 Speaker 4: position than we were in in twenty twenty. So I 311 00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:59,720 Speaker 4: was just speaking at a Republican lawyers group and we 312 00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:02,320 Speaker 4: were talking talking about how the preparation and the readiness 313 00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:05,680 Speaker 4: is so much more informed by what happened in twenty 314 00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:08,720 Speaker 4: twenty and we're looking ahead to win in twenty twenty four. 315 00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:10,720 Speaker 4: But it's going to take work every single day on 316 00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:13,359 Speaker 4: the ground, and that's what we're doing. We're doing voter roll, cleanup, 317 00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:18,760 Speaker 4: voter registration, making sure that kids in colleges know that 318 00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:22,440 Speaker 4: the conservative movement is where freedom and opportunity is. We're 319 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:25,159 Speaker 4: reaching out to the black and Hispanic communities, so we 320 00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:28,280 Speaker 4: see that momentum on the ground. We're taking nothing for granted. 321 00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:31,680 Speaker 4: And look the polls. The polls look positive, but the 322 00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:34,560 Speaker 4: only one that matters is on November fifth. 323 00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:37,760 Speaker 1: No doubt. And as you look at those polls and 324 00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:41,280 Speaker 1: kind of think forward June twenty seventh, we've been having 325 00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:45,000 Speaker 1: a discussion about this. You've run for office before, you know, 326 00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:47,960 Speaker 1: when people really kind of start to pay attention. A 327 00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:50,520 Speaker 1: lot of times people say the election actually begins after 328 00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:54,960 Speaker 1: Labor Day. Why is this debate happening six days from now? 329 00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:57,840 Speaker 1: What do you think June twenty seventh tells us about 330 00:20:57,880 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 1: the state of this race? 331 00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:03,240 Speaker 4: Clay, I think it tells us a lot. I think 332 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:06,280 Speaker 4: it tells us that voters are ready for this to happen. 333 00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:10,920 Speaker 4: But more importantly, this debate needs to happen because Americans 334 00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:14,399 Speaker 4: want to hear the contrast between the two visions and 335 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:19,359 Speaker 4: the two records that have been clearly demonstrated uniquely now 336 00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:23,120 Speaker 4: in both presidencies. And you know, I think Democrats are 337 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:25,800 Speaker 4: a little concerned about what's going on with their candidate, 338 00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:27,360 Speaker 4: and I think this is going to be a pressure 339 00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:31,760 Speaker 4: test and it's a huge opportunity to make sure that 340 00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:34,960 Speaker 4: President Trump tells the story of his four years in 341 00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:39,080 Speaker 4: office how it elevated Americans across the board. And I 342 00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:41,200 Speaker 4: don't know how Biden is going to defend his record. 343 00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:44,520 Speaker 4: I think it's super critical that we hear from him 344 00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:47,400 Speaker 4: because we're in a perilous place in this country. I mean, 345 00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:51,639 Speaker 4: we have unprecedented risks at home and abroad, and he 346 00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:54,640 Speaker 4: needs to answer for where he has put this country. 347 00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:59,119 Speaker 1: We're talking to Kelly Leffler. All right, Kelly, you owned 348 00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:04,000 Speaker 1: a WNBA franchise in Atlanta, and so you know the 349 00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:08,000 Speaker 1: struggles to get attention, how difficult it's been to build 350 00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:11,280 Speaker 1: this business for people out there who aren't familiar with 351 00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:15,480 Speaker 1: your tenure as the owner of the WNBA franchise in Atlanta. 352 00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:18,639 Speaker 1: Caitlin Clark is playing there tonight. I believe there's a 353 00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:21,840 Speaker 1: massive amount of attention for this game, particularly because she's 354 00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:24,800 Speaker 1: bringing that amount of attention. But before we get to 355 00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:28,880 Speaker 1: Caitlin Clark, what was your experience like as a WNBA 356 00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:32,600 Speaker 1: owner and why are you not still a WNBA owner? 357 00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:37,520 Speaker 4: Well, the short answer to your last question is because 358 00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:41,399 Speaker 4: the WNBA stopped being about basketball and started being about 359 00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 4: partisan politics. But let me tell you, being a team 360 00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:49,960 Speaker 4: owner for a decade was an incredible experience because for 361 00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:52,840 Speaker 4: most of that time, the league was about sport and 362 00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:56,560 Speaker 4: the uniting power of basketball. And I saw that firsthand 363 00:22:56,600 --> 00:22:59,159 Speaker 4: when I lived in Chicago during the nineties during the 364 00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:02,160 Speaker 4: Bulls run, I had a fifty dollars standing room only 365 00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:05,960 Speaker 4: ticket and it was exciting. I saw how a team 366 00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:08,800 Speaker 4: can unite a city, and I wanted to bring that 367 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:12,520 Speaker 4: spirit of basketball to Atlanta. So for a decade, my 368 00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:14,440 Speaker 4: business partner and I were fifty to fifty owners in 369 00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:17,520 Speaker 4: the team. And you know, it's interesting that the debates 370 00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:22,520 Speaker 4: in Atlanta. This game tonight is in Atlanta, and that's 371 00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:26,760 Speaker 4: exactly where the Olympics were held in ninety six. That 372 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:29,439 Speaker 4: David Stern, if you remember, the commissioner of the NBA, 373 00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:33,080 Speaker 4: was inspired to create a women's league. And I think 374 00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:34,959 Speaker 4: he'd be rolling over in his grave right now if 375 00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:38,679 Speaker 4: he saw that what Caitlin Clark brings to the league 376 00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:42,439 Speaker 4: and how she's being treated, because at that time, we 377 00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:44,679 Speaker 4: would have done anything to have a player like that. 378 00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:49,520 Speaker 4: A phenom a sensation, and the WNBA is effectively turning 379 00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:53,119 Speaker 4: their back on her. She's been shunned from the Olympics, 380 00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:56,480 Speaker 4: and they're defending all her detractors in the league. So 381 00:23:56,520 --> 00:23:59,640 Speaker 4: it's really puzzling that we have this great player that's 382 00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:03,119 Speaker 4: elim the game, that is responsible for one third of 383 00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:07,000 Speaker 4: ticket sales in a league that's reportedly losing fifty million dollars, 384 00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:12,000 Speaker 4: and it could really help restore and actually save the league. 385 00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:15,560 Speaker 1: You had issues in the WNBA because you had a 386 00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:18,000 Speaker 1: crazy idea and you just kind of hinted at that, Hey, 387 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:22,080 Speaker 1: this league should bring everybody together. If I remember correctly, 388 00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:25,720 Speaker 1: your issues with the WNBA to a large extent dealt 389 00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:29,040 Speaker 1: with them going all in on BLM. And what I 390 00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:32,000 Speaker 1: think is one of the craziest stories of the entire 391 00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:35,160 Speaker 1: twenty twenty sports calendar year for people out there who 392 00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:39,520 Speaker 1: have forgotten the individual and I believe was Waukeshaw, Wisconsin 393 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:43,240 Speaker 1: who was shot. He was armed with a knife. He 394 00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:46,600 Speaker 1: was a person who had abused women. The woman who 395 00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:50,080 Speaker 1: he had abused called asking for police come to protect her, 396 00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:54,439 Speaker 1: and all of the WNBA women wrote his name on 397 00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:58,280 Speaker 1: the T shirts that they made and protested the police 398 00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:01,720 Speaker 1: in Wisconsin showing up to tech that woman. I felt 399 00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:04,960 Speaker 1: like I was taking crazy pills. You had to as well. 400 00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:07,480 Speaker 1: I did. 401 00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:11,320 Speaker 4: Because the WNBA was formed to empower women, to inspire 402 00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:14,560 Speaker 4: young girls. I was a young girl playing in sports 403 00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:16,959 Speaker 4: that we didn't really have women role models. But I 404 00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:20,679 Speaker 4: loved Michael Jordan and to see women standing up for 405 00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:24,200 Speaker 4: other women would have been really amazing. But they insisted 406 00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:31,800 Speaker 4: on partnering with this BLM organization. Marxist leadership self avowed Marxists, 407 00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:36,200 Speaker 4: put a Marxist on the WNBA Social Justice Committee, and 408 00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:40,960 Speaker 4: BLM was all about defunding the police. And at that time, 409 00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:43,399 Speaker 4: I said, we need to use sports for unity. And 410 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:47,399 Speaker 4: I think we all remember during twenty twenty when the 411 00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:50,679 Speaker 4: Last Dance played on ESPN and during the pandemic and 412 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:54,239 Speaker 4: everyone was so excited. It brought people together. But the 413 00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:56,200 Speaker 4: WNBA went against that and said, no, we're going to 414 00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:58,960 Speaker 4: stand with BLM and not stand with the basketball and 415 00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:01,760 Speaker 4: the bigger community. So I was the only sports team 416 00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:04,080 Speaker 4: owner to stand up and speak out against it and 417 00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:06,679 Speaker 4: say we should unite around the American flag. We can 418 00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:09,240 Speaker 4: use this to bring people together to inspire people through 419 00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:12,679 Speaker 4: these challenging times and for that they attacked me and 420 00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:16,280 Speaker 4: you know, tried to cancel me and I refuse to 421 00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:16,959 Speaker 4: bend the knee. 422 00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:19,879 Speaker 1: Well, it's super brave and I'm glad you're telling that 423 00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:22,400 Speaker 1: story to the extent this audience hasn't heard it. We're 424 00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:27,160 Speaker 1: talking to former US Senator Greater Georgia chairwoman Kelly Leffler. 425 00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:31,200 Speaker 1: All right, tonight, Kaitlin Clark is coming to Atlanta. Why 426 00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:35,040 Speaker 1: do you think the WNBA has tripped all over itself 427 00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:37,959 Speaker 1: in the way that they have responded to Caitlin Clark. 428 00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:41,840 Speaker 1: What is the story here? And certainly I think, but 429 00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:44,399 Speaker 1: I'm curious what your opinion is. Is it about something 430 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:45,760 Speaker 1: other than basketball itself? 431 00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:50,760 Speaker 4: Well, it shouldn't be. The story is Caitlin Clark can 432 00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:54,800 Speaker 4: save the WNBA if the WNBA can get politics out 433 00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:57,840 Speaker 4: of the way. But they can't because they won't let it. 434 00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:01,560 Speaker 4: You know, if you look at Caitlyn Clark has done 435 00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:04,760 Speaker 4: in terms of bringing attention a spot like viewership record. 436 00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:07,840 Speaker 4: Viewership was just hit last week with three million people 437 00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:12,280 Speaker 4: watching the sky Fever game. Arenas are selling out when 438 00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:15,359 Speaker 4: she plays there. Nike has given her a something like 439 00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:18,639 Speaker 4: twenty eight million dollar contract and she's a great player. 440 00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:21,680 Speaker 4: She's all about basketball, but she's not about the leftist 441 00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:25,320 Speaker 4: political ideology that the league wants everyone to bow down to. 442 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:29,160 Speaker 4: And so they're you know, seeing the challenges of that 443 00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:32,960 Speaker 4: where players are lashing out against Caitlyn. Caitlyn is rising 444 00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:35,840 Speaker 4: above it. She's playing through it. She's one of the 445 00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:38,800 Speaker 4: fiercest competitors out there. She can take the physicality, she 446 00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:41,280 Speaker 4: can take the toughness. We've even had to have a 447 00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:44,040 Speaker 4: congressman from Indiana write a letter to the league that says, 448 00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:46,080 Speaker 4: wait a minute, you know, it feels like there's a 449 00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:49,800 Speaker 4: player that's being treated differently. Meanwhile all the other players 450 00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:53,240 Speaker 4: are saying, well, she gets special whistles, and I just say, okay. 451 00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:55,840 Speaker 4: That's when you know they actually don't have an answer 452 00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:58,840 Speaker 4: for her skill level, because if you're blaming it on 453 00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:01,359 Speaker 4: the ress she has record, you can look at her 454 00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:04,000 Speaker 4: stats right now. She's one of the top players in 455 00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:07,159 Speaker 4: the league. She's certainly the best rookie in the league. 456 00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:10,679 Speaker 4: And she's been overtly left off of the Olympic roster. 457 00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:13,200 Speaker 4: So look, she still has a chance to save the league. 458 00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:15,760 Speaker 4: The league can recover from this if they embrace her 459 00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:19,000 Speaker 4: and elevate her just like every other player. But we 460 00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:20,359 Speaker 4: haven't seen that happening yet. 461 00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:24,880 Speaker 1: You've been a really successful entrepreneur in your career. I'm 462 00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:29,479 Speaker 1: curious how you would assess this because sometimes it seems 463 00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:31,800 Speaker 1: to me that people would rather be part of a 464 00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:36,480 Speaker 1: small company or entity that they have control over than 465 00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:39,960 Speaker 1: build something truly massive. And you mentioned Jordan in the 466 00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:42,280 Speaker 1: Last Dance and going to watch him play fifty dollars 467 00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:45,920 Speaker 1: tickets in Chicago. To me, that's a perfect example. Jordan 468 00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:49,200 Speaker 1: and Larry Bird and Magic Johnson came into the league 469 00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:52,400 Speaker 1: and they changed it forever and made people care about 470 00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:54,760 Speaker 1: the NBA that might not have before. We just saw 471 00:28:54,800 --> 00:28:58,400 Speaker 1: one more recently in the late nineties, Tiger Woods came 472 00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:02,239 Speaker 1: into the PGA and brought a brand new audience and 473 00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:04,719 Speaker 1: took the PGA to a different level than golf had 474 00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:08,640 Speaker 1: ever been before. Why do you think the WNBA, which 475 00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:11,760 Speaker 1: you know better than anybody, has been begging and starved 476 00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:15,040 Speaker 1: for attention and trying to make people care about their sport, 477 00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:18,760 Speaker 1: has been given this Tiger Woods like gift and tripped 478 00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:19,320 Speaker 1: all over it. 479 00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:23,880 Speaker 4: Well, and let me even add one more example. And 480 00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:26,520 Speaker 4: I've had a commissioner with it a conversation with NBA 481 00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:29,959 Speaker 4: Commissioner Adam Silver about this his vision for the WNBA. 482 00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:32,800 Speaker 4: Look at what Venus and Serena Williams did for. 483 00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:34,800 Speaker 1: Tennis, the audiences. 484 00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:37,240 Speaker 4: They brought in, they banded that sport that could have 485 00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:41,160 Speaker 4: been tremendous. The fact is, Caitlin Clark does not fit 486 00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:43,480 Speaker 4: the mold that they want in the WNBA. She doesn't 487 00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:47,960 Speaker 4: bring the intersexual sectional qualities that they think are required 488 00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:50,640 Speaker 4: to put on a pedestal, and they want to make 489 00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:54,239 Speaker 4: sure that they preserve this left wing ideology and if 490 00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:56,040 Speaker 4: you don't buy into it and you don't promote it, 491 00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:58,640 Speaker 4: then you can't be promoted on their platform. And that's 492 00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:02,200 Speaker 4: just really tragic for the league and for the valuations 493 00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:04,200 Speaker 4: of the teams. I think, you know, if that's going 494 00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:07,200 Speaker 4: to hold them back, that's a shame because here we 495 00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:11,360 Speaker 4: have a talented player that's potentially influencing thousands of other 496 00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:14,680 Speaker 4: young girls who want to be part of athletics. Maybe 497 00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:18,440 Speaker 4: not basketball, maybe it's tennis or golf, but they want 498 00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:20,760 Speaker 4: to see that there's a chance for them to succeed. 499 00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:23,800 Speaker 4: And yet we have WNBA players going down the road 500 00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:27,360 Speaker 4: of advocating to allow men in sports. They're writing op 501 00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:30,200 Speaker 4: ed after op ed about it, and this is where 502 00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:33,360 Speaker 4: the league stands right now, and it's not heading in 503 00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:36,440 Speaker 4: the right direction given the platform they've been offered. 504 00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:39,160 Speaker 1: Would you have ever believed you said you grew up 505 00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:40,880 Speaker 1: playing sports. I know a lot of people out there 506 00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:43,840 Speaker 1: listening did as well. Would you ever believe that we'd 507 00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:46,160 Speaker 1: find a place where a woman like Don Staley, who 508 00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:49,440 Speaker 1: is probably right now the most prominent women's coach in 509 00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:52,360 Speaker 1: all of college. I think that's fair to say, would 510 00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:54,560 Speaker 1: be saying, hey, if you're a man who identifies as 511 00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:56,080 Speaker 1: a woman, you should be able to come and get 512 00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:59,200 Speaker 1: a women's scholarship and compete in women's basketball, like twenty 513 00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:01,520 Speaker 1: years ago. Would you believe this would have ever been possible. 514 00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:07,000 Speaker 4: I can't believe it today, certainly not twenty years ago. 515 00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:10,719 Speaker 4: In fact, before she passed, I had the opportunity to 516 00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:14,800 Speaker 4: meet the late great Pat Summit, who fought so hard, 517 00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:19,920 Speaker 4: amazing woman, and fought so hard to have women have 518 00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:23,200 Speaker 4: the same opportunities. Now they're virtually trying to hand it 519 00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:25,280 Speaker 4: to men on the silver platter. And you know, while 520 00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:28,760 Speaker 4: the American team USA is going for their eighth consecutive 521 00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:32,200 Speaker 4: Olympic gold medal. Who knows the ninth one may not 522 00:31:32,240 --> 00:31:34,880 Speaker 4: be possible because there may be a man playing on 523 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:38,320 Speaker 4: Team Spain or you know whatever. So you know, it's 524 00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:40,560 Speaker 4: one of those things that it's you can't believe it, 525 00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:42,479 Speaker 4: and you hope that we can get back to normal. 526 00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:45,240 Speaker 4: But I was the first Senator in the history of 527 00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:48,520 Speaker 4: the United States to introduce protecting women in girls' sports 528 00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:52,280 Speaker 4: language in the Senate. I could only get a few 529 00:31:52,320 --> 00:31:55,320 Speaker 4: other Republican senators on that bill with me, and it 530 00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:57,120 Speaker 4: didn't even get brought to the floor, and I was 531 00:31:57,200 --> 00:32:00,600 Speaker 4: criticized for it being divisive because everyone said, we don't 532 00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:03,280 Speaker 4: need a bill to do that. Well, four years later, 533 00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:06,080 Speaker 4: we should have had that bill because too many girls 534 00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:09,200 Speaker 4: are getting excluded, too many boys are in girls' locker rooms, 535 00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:12,400 Speaker 4: and now states are trying to codify, and the federal 536 00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:17,840 Speaker 4: government through Title nine rollbacks, trying to codify allowing men 537 00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:21,320 Speaker 4: in women's sports and in men's women's locker rooms, and 538 00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:23,000 Speaker 4: it's not fair to young girls. 539 00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:26,360 Speaker 1: It's absolutely crazy. Kelly Leffler, I just came back from 540 00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:29,719 Speaker 1: Atlanta with my kids, went and watched the Atlanta Braves 541 00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:34,520 Speaker 1: play absolutely amazing time. Georgia needs to go back red. 542 00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:37,040 Speaker 1: How can people help if they're listening to you right 543 00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:39,600 Speaker 1: now and they're around and they're listening, they're in Georgia 544 00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:41,160 Speaker 1: or they're around the country and they want to help. 545 00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:41,960 Speaker 1: What you're doing. 546 00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:45,160 Speaker 4: Well.

Because when we 551 00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:03,280 Speaker 4: look at the polls, we can see things are going 552 00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:06,320 Speaker 4: in the right direction. But you have to ask yourself 553 00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:08,560 Speaker 4: what am I doing to make sure that we stay there? 554 00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:11,719 Speaker 4: And it's not just enough to say I'm gonna vote. 555 00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:13,480 Speaker 4: You have to do a little bit more.
