1 00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:07,240 Speaker 1: Welcome in Friday edition Clay Travis buck Sexton Show. Congratulations 2 00:00:07,280 --> 00:00:09,559 Speaker 1: to Notre Dame fans. You can party like it's nineteen 3 00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:11,880 Speaker 1: eighty eight. You're in a championship game. Buck may have 4 00:00:11,920 --> 00:00:13,800 Speaker 1: no idea what that actually means, but I bet we 5 00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:16,040 Speaker 1: have a lot of Golden Domers that are listening. Big 6 00:00:16,040 --> 00:00:20,960 Speaker 1: win last night over Penn State. I am in snowy Nashville, Buck, 7 00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:25,400 Speaker 1: where we are getting absolutely slammed with what Southerners would 8 00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:27,720 Speaker 1: consider to be a massive amount of snow. It's going 9 00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:30,200 Speaker 1: to be six to eight inches before all is said 10 00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:33,080 Speaker 1: and done. All the schools are closed. If you hear 11 00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:36,479 Speaker 1: kids running around and screaming, that's probably going to be 12 00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:38,959 Speaker 1: kids in my house that are out and about with 13 00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:44,440 Speaker 1: sleds and everything else. And so all of that underway, 14 00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:48,680 Speaker 1: we got a bunch of legal happenings that continued fallout 15 00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:53,720 Speaker 1: of the wildfires in Los Angeles and the movement by 16 00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:56,160 Speaker 1: the way of a lot of sporting events. I mean, 17 00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:58,160 Speaker 1: but the playoff game there that the Rams were going 18 00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:01,600 Speaker 1: to host being moved to Arizona, and the Lakers games 19 00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:06,839 Speaker 1: being postponed. I mean, there's basically continued mess there. Curfew 20 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:11,080 Speaker 1: in place, after dark. There are looting issues that are 21 00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:13,920 Speaker 1: happening in some of these neighborhoods with the burned out homes, 22 00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:18,720 Speaker 1: which is just absolutely indefensible on top of the indefensible 23 00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:21,400 Speaker 1: nature of so much of the response to these wildfires. 24 00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:25,039 Speaker 1: Will continue to talk about that. But the story of 25 00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:31,240 Speaker 1: the day Donald Trump officially sentenced in the sham New 26 00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:35,560 Speaker 1: York City case having to do with business records. And 27 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 1: after all of this, after months of trial, after. 28 00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:43,759 Speaker 2: Years of legal wranglings. 29 00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 1: After charges being brought in DC and Atlanta, in New 30 00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 1: York City and in Miami, effectively all those cases are done, 31 00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 1: and the sentencing has now been complete, and they gave 32 00:01:56,760 --> 00:02:01,920 Speaker 1: Donald Trump an unconditional discharge, meaning, hey, there is no 33 00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:04,960 Speaker 1: punishment at all. We're not even going to find you. 34 00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 1: This case is over. There's no jail time, there is 35 00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:14,400 Speaker 1: basically no consequence at all. And I'm seeing buck even 36 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:18,640 Speaker 1: left wingers that hate Trump are sort of facing this 37 00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:23,480 Speaker 1: existential crisis of their own creation where they sit around 38 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:29,400 Speaker 1: and they say, wait, nothing actually is happening. After MSNBC 39 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:33,359 Speaker 1: and CNN and left wing legal analysts have gotten them 40 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:36,520 Speaker 1: all gigged up for nine years that Trump was going 41 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 1: to face his day in court and there would be 42 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 1: a reckoning. Actually nothing at all has happened. Judge merchand 43 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:47,639 Speaker 1: unconditionally discharges him. They're trying to dance around and say, 44 00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 1: always a convicted felon. I still think this case is 45 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:53,000 Speaker 1: going to get tossed on appeal, I really do. But 46 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 1: in the meantime there are no consequences whatsoever. And in 47 00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 1: ten days Trump is raising his right hand and takes 48 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:01,560 Speaker 1: over as President of the United States with a full 49 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:03,519 Speaker 1: House and a full Senate behind him. 50 00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:06,960 Speaker 2: I know that a lot of things came together to 51 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:12,040 Speaker 2: make Trump president again, but it is hard at this 52 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:15,720 Speaker 2: point I would argue to look back and not come 53 00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 2: away thinking that law fair against Trump may have been 54 00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:28,400 Speaker 2: the biggest political own goal we've ever seen. I've you know, 55 00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:31,200 Speaker 2: when you look at the numbers after the mar A 56 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:33,360 Speaker 2: Lago raid and after it was clear they were criminally 57 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 2: prosecuting Trump, it was just it was Trump's party. The 58 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 2: Republicans didn't want anybody else, don't want to talk about 59 00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:43,800 Speaker 2: anybody else. Primary was a non primary effectively, and now 60 00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:45,600 Speaker 2: maybe that would have happened anyway, But I think it's 61 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:47,440 Speaker 2: hard to look at where the numbers were before that 62 00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:51,760 Speaker 2: I think that this was something that blew up in 63 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 2: their faces in a way that is truly epic, and 64 00:03:55,840 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 2: it's hard to imagine. It's hard to imagine anything being 65 00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:05,800 Speaker 2: so poorly planned as the four criminal prosecutions of Donald Trump, 66 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:08,880 Speaker 2: all of which came to nothing other than making him 67 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:12,960 Speaker 2: president again. Yeah, you know, and this is really important 68 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 2: because lawfair is the end of the republic. If it 69 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:20,839 Speaker 2: becomes standardized lawfair in politics, that can get rid of 70 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:24,279 Speaker 2: a political candidate because you don't like him means that 71 00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:27,240 Speaker 2: we no longer have a free and fair political system, 72 00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:29,440 Speaker 2: not worthy of being called such. 73 00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 3: And the only way for it to be defeated really 74 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 3: was this, meaning that going forward, anybody who and it's 75 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:42,560 Speaker 3: always Democrats to do this stuff, but anybody who thinks, oh, 76 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:46,360 Speaker 3: I'm going to take this person off the political battlefield 77 00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:51,960 Speaker 3: by bringing some bogus charge, by having some partisan da as. 78 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 2: You know, my so called political hitman. If you will 79 00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:58,160 Speaker 2: to take this person and prosecute them, they're going to say, 80 00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:01,359 Speaker 2: wait a second, what happened with Trump when they did that? 81 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that was a really bad idea. And it 82 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:07,960 Speaker 2: was a really bad idea because the American people rejected 83 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:10,440 Speaker 2: it and the American people. As much as sometimes it 84 00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 2: feels like, oh my gosh, how can so many people 85 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:15,360 Speaker 2: believe this? And so many people wear masks during COVID 86 00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 2: and all these things, we got this one right as 87 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 2: a country. This was a critical stress test of our 88 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 2: political system, and now Donald Trump gets to the rewards. 89 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:28,480 Speaker 1: I think it's important to go back and think about 90 00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:32,000 Speaker 1: what their goal was and to your point, see what 91 00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:35,560 Speaker 1: happens with it blowing up in their face. Their plan 92 00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:39,320 Speaker 1: was to put Trump. I really think this is what 93 00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:41,600 Speaker 1: their their thought process tell me if you disagree with 94 00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:44,520 Speaker 1: any of this buck. I think they thought when they 95 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:48,160 Speaker 1: raided mar A Lago and began the Lawfair in Earnest, 96 00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 1: that they were going to pump up Trump's numbers in 97 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 1: the Republican primary, and that that would make him the nominee, 98 00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:01,479 Speaker 1: but that the larger American voting public, that is the 99 00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:06,160 Speaker 1: swing voter, so to speak, and the anti Trump element, 100 00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:09,880 Speaker 1: would actually guarantee to them that there was no way 101 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:12,839 Speaker 1: Trump could be elected once he was charged with crimes. 102 00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:16,240 Speaker 1: So it was diabolical in this respect. I think they 103 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:20,719 Speaker 1: were right that Republicans would rally around Trump when the 104 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:24,400 Speaker 1: Lawfair began, and I think to Trump's credit, he got 105 00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:29,279 Speaker 1: that right. I think their miscalculation was they never really 106 00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:33,320 Speaker 1: thought that Trump would be strengthened with the so called 107 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:36,840 Speaker 1: swing voters of America based on the lawfair that they 108 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 1: brought to bear against it. And to your point, that's 109 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:41,159 Speaker 1: where they were wrong in their calculus. 110 00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:43,599 Speaker 2: Yeah, the failure of analysis from their part was it 111 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:45,960 Speaker 2: would make him the nominee and force and make sure 112 00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 2: he lost the election. And instead it made him the 113 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:50,920 Speaker 2: nominee and made sure he won the election, right actually, 114 00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:53,760 Speaker 2: and was a major part of it. And we haven't 115 00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 2: even added into this the two attempted assassinations of Donald Trump, 116 00:06:57,960 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 2: the way that they responded to getting shot in the ear. 117 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:01,920 Speaker 2: Do you remember that, everybody who's just a few months 118 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:05,440 Speaker 2: ago Trump got shot in the ear. The guy took 119 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:09,520 Speaker 2: an ar round in the ear and basically said, let's go, 120 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 2: let's fight up on the stage while he had blood 121 00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:14,120 Speaker 2: dripping down from his head. I mean, it was a 122 00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:17,520 Speaker 2: remarkable year in American politics, in American history last year, 123 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:19,680 Speaker 2: and so you know, going into this inauguration, to say 124 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 2: there's a sense of history to it all and a 125 00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 2: sense of destiny to it all, I think is perhaps 126 00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 2: an understatement and the final collapse play of the law 127 00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 2: fair right before it. His victory is absolute. The victory 128 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:36,840 Speaker 2: is complete, top to bottom. They pushed this. This was 129 00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 2: the first case they pushed through so that then they 130 00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:41,720 Speaker 2: could let him, let him go anyway. I mean, the 131 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:43,640 Speaker 2: whole thing was such a sham. It's like saying that 132 00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 2: he was Hitler, which they also never believed. It's also 133 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:48,480 Speaker 2: the case. 134 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 1: And I like to look decades and maybe even farther 135 00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:55,120 Speaker 1: than that into the future, what we lived through in 136 00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:59,560 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four, that election cycle. One hundred years from now, 137 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:04,520 Speaker 1: it will be a best selling book that to the 138 00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:07,400 Speaker 1: extent that books are read in the traditional way, which 139 00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 1: I still think they will. One hundred years from now, 140 00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 1: everybody will be dissecting this book and it'll be a 141 00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:16,320 Speaker 1: number one best seller, and people will say, can you 142 00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:20,920 Speaker 1: believe what that twenty twenty four American presidential election was like? 143 00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:26,680 Speaker 1: Long after every single person here is passed, we will 144 00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 1: not be around when historians really write and grapple with 145 00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:34,679 Speaker 1: the major issues that took place in this election. I 146 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 1: like to go back and sometimes read books about historic 147 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:41,080 Speaker 1: election seasons. I think I even told you Buck, I 148 00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:44,880 Speaker 1: did my history thesis on the eighteen sixty four presidential 149 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 1: election between Abraham Lincoln and George McClellan, which is one 150 00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:52,719 Speaker 1: of the most staggering elections in American political history. I mean, 151 00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:54,720 Speaker 1: think about that. For those of us who are history 152 00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:57,400 Speaker 1: nerds and Civil War history nerds in particular, you had 153 00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:02,559 Speaker 1: Lincoln's former chief general running against him in the middle 154 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:06,560 Speaker 1: of the Civil War. Like, I mean, that is like 155 00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:11,080 Speaker 1: hard to even comprehend what something like that would look like. 156 00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 1: And so you go back. I would encourage people who 157 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:17,480 Speaker 1: really are fans of history. There's a great book about 158 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 1: the eighteen sixty four presidential election, but what we just 159 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:25,600 Speaker 1: lived through the twenty twenty four presidential election. One hundred 160 00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:28,320 Speaker 1: years from now, Like I'm talking about that eighteen sixty 161 00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:30,400 Speaker 1: four election, there will be people out there saying, man, 162 00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:31,760 Speaker 1: you got to go read this new book about the 163 00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:34,040 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four presidential Like I had no idea how 164 00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:34,760 Speaker 1: crazy it was. 165 00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:36,960 Speaker 2: Like it was an unbelievable thing that we just lived through. 166 00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:39,000 Speaker 1: And I think the biggest takeaway is an important one 167 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:41,160 Speaker 1: that you laid out and we've been talking about for 168 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:45,040 Speaker 1: some time the president now is that if you try 169 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:48,520 Speaker 1: to put your chief political adversary in prison for the 170 00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:52,040 Speaker 1: rest of his life, that you actually see that blow 171 00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:55,719 Speaker 1: up in your face, and that it works against you electorally. 172 00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 1: If it had worked, everybody would start to try to 173 00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:02,040 Speaker 1: put in place law like this. I think we went 174 00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:04,600 Speaker 1: to the brink, but I think the American public thankfully 175 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:07,160 Speaker 1: delivered Trump such a win that a lot of people 176 00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:10,120 Speaker 1: will say, whoaoa, whoa. You don't want to do to 177 00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:14,080 Speaker 1: your opponent what Trump did to Biden in twenty twenty four. 178 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:17,120 Speaker 1: Let the voters decide, don't try to put him in 179 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:18,320 Speaker 1: prison for the rest of his life. 180 00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:23,439 Speaker 2: And also it's a reminder that prosecutors can figure out 181 00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:25,960 Speaker 2: a million different ways if they want to, if they're 182 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 2: unethical to come up with some way that you did 183 00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:33,000 Speaker 2: something that violates the law. A violation of the law 184 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:35,760 Speaker 2: resulting in a criminal prosecution should be a thing that 185 00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:39,080 Speaker 2: was clearly bad, that clearly did some harm to a 186 00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:42,040 Speaker 2: person or an entity, that is real harm, and that 187 00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:44,560 Speaker 2: anyone can hear about and go, well, you shouldn't have 188 00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:46,280 Speaker 2: done that. You know you need to pay, You need 189 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:49,280 Speaker 2: to pay the price. Nobody heard about this New York case, 190 00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:53,480 Speaker 2: who was emotionally psychologically stable through this election and said, 191 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:57,320 Speaker 2: oh huh, he he misrepresented in his business records the 192 00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:01,240 Speaker 2: transaction for the legal hush money payment. It was insane. 193 00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 2: It was the most absurd case of all of them, 194 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:07,600 Speaker 2: and all of them were absurd, but this one was 195 00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:10,720 Speaker 2: particularly preposterous. And I also just think that, you know, 196 00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 2: we need to remind ourselves. People can stretch the law 197 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:15,200 Speaker 2: to do a whole bunch of different things. There needs 198 00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:17,679 Speaker 2: to be an ethical moral foundation to it. Did this 199 00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:19,680 Speaker 2: person do a bad thing? Yes or no? And the 200 00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:21,760 Speaker 2: answer with Trump is no, he didn't. 201 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:24,560 Speaker 1: Am I wrong, buck? And we can answer this when 202 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:28,040 Speaker 1: we come back from the break. Thinking in a larger context, 203 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:32,920 Speaker 1: this also may well rep well, I'm curious because we 204 00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:37,920 Speaker 1: don't know, but I wonder if this represents the end of, 205 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:42,360 Speaker 1: to a certain extent, the politics of personal destruction where 206 00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:45,079 Speaker 1: the American public, because I don't know that anybody has 207 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:51,240 Speaker 1: been attacked more aggressively for personal foibles than Donald Trump has, 208 00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:54,680 Speaker 1: maybe in any of our lives. Bill Clinton certainly had 209 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:56,880 Speaker 1: some element. You can argue he brought that along in 210 00:11:56,960 --> 00:12:00,760 Speaker 1: the White House, but Clinton actually didn't have any consequences. 211 00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 1: Now Trump hasn't had any consequences. Is one of the 212 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:08,080 Speaker 1: legacies of Trump going to be that going back in 213 00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:11,680 Speaker 1: time twenty years, forty years, thirty, whatever you want to say, 214 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:14,679 Speaker 1: and wagging your finger and saying he did this, that 215 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:18,440 Speaker 1: the American public just doesn't care. Or is Trump such 216 00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 1: a unique political talent that he was able to overcome 217 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:25,280 Speaker 1: all that and it would destroy other politicians if they 218 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:27,760 Speaker 1: had similar things in their background. I just I think 219 00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:30,880 Speaker 1: it's an interesting way to think going forward. Are we 220 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:34,240 Speaker 1: going to value people not based on their entire worst 221 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:38,319 Speaker 1: thing of history or not? Going forward? 222 00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:41,880 Speaker 2: I think I see the tremendous gifts and also some 223 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:45,640 Speaker 2: of the idiosyncrasies and shortcomings of Trump with some clarity. 224 00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:48,920 Speaker 2: I'd like to think so, at least I think on 225 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:53,520 Speaker 2: this score he's almost superhuman, meaning the amount of incoming, 226 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 2: like he's a unicorns in that way. Yes, the amount 227 00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:00,679 Speaker 2: of incoming that he can take, the amount of artillery 228 00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:03,400 Speaker 2: fire so to speak, that you can throw in his 229 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:06,280 Speaker 2: direction and he just keeps coming. I think it would 230 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:07,720 Speaker 2: have I think it would have broken a lot. A 231 00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:09,040 Speaker 2: lot of other people would have said, I want to 232 00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:12,160 Speaker 2: play golf. Okay, let's just negotiate this out. Let's figure 233 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:15,240 Speaker 2: this out. But with Trump man, he loves a fight. 234 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:18,000 Speaker 2: He you know, the moment somebody wants to throw a 235 00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:22,160 Speaker 2: punch at him, he is he is always down to CounterPunch. 236 00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 2: So it's remarkable and I honestly, today's a day everybody 237 00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:30,160 Speaker 2: should everybody who've supported Trump and voted for Trump. His 238 00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 2: victory is complete today in a sense. I know, the 239 00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:34,280 Speaker 2: inauguration's coming up and there'll be a lot more of 240 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:37,120 Speaker 2: this feeling, Clay, But the defeat of the law fair 241 00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:40,320 Speaker 2: is absolute now and it's an incredible thing that he 242 00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:42,800 Speaker 2: was able to do. And and you know, the good 243 00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 2: guys won this round, so you know, go into the 244 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:47,560 Speaker 2: weekend feeling good about it. We'll also talk a little 245 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:50,000 Speaker 2: bit more about the analysis on this, and and of 246 00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:53,680 Speaker 2: course updates on the wildfires in California, Lot Clay, a 247 00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:56,559 Speaker 2: lot of people talking about Arson now, yeah, which is 248 00:13:56,920 --> 00:14:01,160 Speaker 2: really really disconcerting. I mean, not not verified yet, but 249 00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:05,160 Speaker 2: we'll get into some of this now. Inflation, my friends, 250 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:07,720 Speaker 2: is still a problem. And here's why. Inflation is tied 251 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:10,240 Speaker 2: to government money printing. Look at how much the debt is. 252 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:11,880 Speaker 2: Look at how much money's going to have to be 253 00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:15,680 Speaker 2: printed to pay the automatic spending we have, plus the 254 00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:19,000 Speaker 2: servicing of the debt. These are realities, no matter how 255 00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:21,040 Speaker 2: good doges in the first couple of years, no matter 256 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:25,680 Speaker 2: what Trump does. So it makes sense to diversify with 257 00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:28,120 Speaker 2: gold and silver. That's where the Birch Gold Group comes in. 258 00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:30,880 Speaker 2: Let me tell you about Amy. Amy was considering buying 259 00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:33,760 Speaker 2: precious metals because she had some uninvested funds sitting in 260 00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:36,040 Speaker 2: an account from an old four oh one K rollover. 261 00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:37,880 Speaker 2: But she's like, what do I do with this?

Tamara with a great question. She says, Clay 293 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:15,600 Speaker 2: and Buck, I was wondering besides the consequences of a 294 00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:18,920 Speaker 2: convicted felon status here to America like being prohibited from 295 00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:22,400 Speaker 2: possessing firearms, losing her Fourth Amendment rights. But abroad, there 296 00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:24,960 Speaker 2: are many countries you cannot travel to as a convicted felon. 297 00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:27,280 Speaker 2: How the hell can you put that kind of sentence 298 00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:29,640 Speaker 2: onto a president elect? How can you even travel to 299 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:34,760 Speaker 2: meet foreign leaders as a convicted felon? This is so ridiculous. Well, 300 00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:37,840 Speaker 2: I do think that he's going to uh end up 301 00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:40,080 Speaker 2: getting this whole thing tossed on appeal. I agree with 302 00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:42,480 Speaker 2: Clay on that, so I think that the conviction will 303 00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:47,040 Speaker 2: be overturned in the meantime, though, Clay, do you see 304 00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:53,359 Speaker 2: any legal ramification of the conviction minus any actual punishment. 305 00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:57,520 Speaker 1: I do think that what we're going to get into 306 00:16:57,600 --> 00:16:59,840 Speaker 1: here on appeal, and it's going to be very new. 307 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:03,280 Speaker 1: And we talked about this a little bit, is to 308 00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:07,440 Speaker 1: what extent is this involved in his presidential campaign? 309 00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:09,240 Speaker 2: Point one? 310 00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:13,720 Speaker 1: In other words, where is the scope of his public 311 00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:18,000 Speaker 1: versus private behavior? Here? Point two is and I still 312 00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:22,920 Speaker 1: believe this is supremely important. To what extent is that 313 00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:28,719 Speaker 1: second crime fully defined? And is it legally permissible? And 314 00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:31,160 Speaker 1: this again is getting really into the weeds on this, 315 00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:35,879 Speaker 1: but it's required that in order to elevate a bookkeeping 316 00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:39,399 Speaker 1: misdemeanor to a felony, it has to have been essentially 317 00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:42,679 Speaker 1: in furtherance of another crime, and they never really have 318 00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:46,240 Speaker 1: specified exactly what the hook is on that other crime. 319 00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:48,520 Speaker 1: That is something that I think the appeals court are 320 00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:49,480 Speaker 1: going to look into in. 321 00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:49,960 Speaker 2: A big way. 322 00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:54,080 Speaker 1: Having said all that, the punishment is virtually non existent, 323 00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:55,640 Speaker 1: I don't think anybody's going to care. 324 00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:58,240 Speaker 2: But she's saying the felon status. I mean, technically, I 325 00:17:58,240 --> 00:17:59,840 Speaker 2: don't think Trump could go in and buy a fire 326 00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:03,280 Speaker 2: so not that he is planning on it.

Wildfires in LA continue to burn. 343 00:18:57,920 --> 00:18:59,680 Speaker 2: They haven't been contained very much. 344 00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:05,400 Speaker 1: But when I saw the Pride website bucks saying, hey, 345 00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:08,280 Speaker 1: we're so glad we have a lesbian fire chief, even 346 00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:11,280 Speaker 1: though nothing has been done to actually in the fires. 347 00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:15,280 Speaker 1: And who is this woman that I think it's a 348 00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:21,320 Speaker 1: woman that is in a video yesterday we played for you, 349 00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:24,960 Speaker 1: And I do think it's important. I do think it's 350 00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:28,520 Speaker 1: really important that LA decided, hey, we have too many 351 00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:32,320 Speaker 1: white firemen. And yesterday we played Adam Carolla testifying in 352 00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:36,200 Speaker 1: front of the California Legislature saying he had to wait 353 00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:40,600 Speaker 1: seven years to become a fireman. And if you were 354 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:44,080 Speaker 1: a minority woman and you showed up and you applied 355 00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:47,239 Speaker 1: to be a fireman, you got basically automatically put at 356 00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:49,520 Speaker 1: the front of the line, and some people say, well, 357 00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:51,840 Speaker 1: why does this matter, Why should we be having this conversation. Well, 358 00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:54,720 Speaker 1: LA doesn't have enough firefighters, and they don't have enough 359 00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:57,919 Speaker 1: firefighters who are able to do the job at a 360 00:19:57,960 --> 00:20:02,359 Speaker 1: high level, because in gener in general, the people who 361 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:05,720 Speaker 1: are going to be best at firefighting are big, tough, 362 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:10,480 Speaker 1: strong dudes. I can't believe that this is considered controversial. 363 00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:14,040 Speaker 1: But if your house was on fire and you had 364 00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:17,639 Speaker 1: choice choice as to who should save your family, and 365 00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:21,680 Speaker 1: the options were four women who are five foot four 366 00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:25,040 Speaker 1: and weigh one hundred and thirty pounds, and they had 367 00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:28,040 Speaker 1: to carry out your family, they had to carry out 368 00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:31,600 Speaker 1: your animals, they had to carry out your loved ones, 369 00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:35,360 Speaker 1: friend's family, anybody who's in the home, or you could 370 00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:39,840 Speaker 1: pick four six foot four dudes who weigh two hundred 371 00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:43,520 Speaker 1: and twenty pounds. Is anybody out there saying, yeah, I'd 372 00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 1: like the five foot four women to actually save me. 373 00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 1: It is important some of these jobs, men in general 374 00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:53,280 Speaker 1: are better able to do the job. 375 00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:53,639 Speaker 2: Well. 376 00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:56,639 Speaker 1: This is a video clip that has gone viral that 377 00:20:56,720 --> 00:21:01,679 Speaker 1: I just find completely and totally in This is the 378 00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:06,440 Speaker 1: LA Fire Department Chief Christine Larson. She is talking about 379 00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:10,240 Speaker 1: whether or not she can do the job. And she said, 380 00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:13,200 Speaker 1: and she says, specifically, am I going to be able 381 00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:15,760 Speaker 1: to carry your husband out of a fire? He got 382 00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:18,880 Speaker 1: himself in the wrong place? Excuse me, listen to this. 383 00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:21,879 Speaker 5: You want to see somebody that responds to your house, 384 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:24,640 Speaker 5: your emergency, whether it's a medical call or a fire call, 385 00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:27,320 Speaker 5: that looks like you. It gives that person a little 386 00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:30,879 Speaker 5: bit more ease knowing that somebody might understand their situation better. 387 00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:33,520 Speaker 5: Is she strong enough to do this? Or you couldn't 388 00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:36,159 Speaker 5: carry my husband out of a fire, which my response 389 00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:38,080 Speaker 5: is he got himself in the wrong place. If I 390 00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:38,920 Speaker 5: have to carry him out. 391 00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:42,440 Speaker 2: Of a fire, whoa clay hold on. There's two there's 392 00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:45,400 Speaker 2: two big problems here. First of all, I mean, I'll 393 00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:48,080 Speaker 2: start this is one hundred percent reel. This is for real, 394 00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:50,760 Speaker 2: out there, absolutely real. Okay. So there. This is the 395 00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:55,399 Speaker 2: promotion of DEI as a concept on video at the 396 00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:59,560 Speaker 2: Los Angeles Fire Department. Okay. The second part. First, because 397 00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:02,280 Speaker 2: that's one of the most outrageous. People say well, if 398 00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:04,560 Speaker 2: I have to carry your husband out, you know, can 399 00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:06,359 Speaker 2: I And it's like, well, maybe your husband's in a 400 00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:07,760 Speaker 2: bad place. If I have to carry, and it's like, 401 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:11,640 Speaker 2: that's what a fire department's for when things go bad. 402 00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:13,919 Speaker 2: It's no one's fault. It's a fire. You're supposed to 403 00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:17,080 Speaker 2: help people. It's not an you didn't do the right 404 00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:19,280 Speaker 2: thing with the fire exits or something. I mean, it's 405 00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:22,320 Speaker 2: the dumbest, craziest thing, and it's an admission that she 406 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:27,960 Speaker 2: obviously can't also effectively. Imagine, like, let me pause here 407 00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:28,360 Speaker 2: for a sec. 408 00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:32,160 Speaker 1: Imagine that you were a doctor and the doctor got 409 00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:35,560 Speaker 1: the job that they weren't qualified for, and the doctor said, 410 00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:38,919 Speaker 1: can I do open heart surgery on your husband? Well, 411 00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:41,320 Speaker 1: he got himself in a really bad place. If he 412 00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:43,159 Speaker 1: needs open heart surgery. 413 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:45,080 Speaker 2: Maybe you should have put the big max down before 414 00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:47,879 Speaker 2: he needed a cardiac surgeon. I mean, that's basically the 415 00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:49,800 Speaker 2: same logic applied. 416 00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:53,119 Speaker 1: Like you're basically bragging to people that you can't do 417 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:56,480 Speaker 1: the most serious parts of the job, and actually maybe 418 00:22:56,480 --> 00:22:58,919 Speaker 1: it's your fault if you need the help of the 419 00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:00,240 Speaker 1: most serious parts. 420 00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:01,800 Speaker 2: Of the job. I mean, I can't believe this is real. 421 00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:04,280 Speaker 2: The second part of it. I watched it a couple 422 00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:06,040 Speaker 2: of times. I think it's the favorite clip going around 423 00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:09,080 Speaker 2: the internet right now. I would also say Clay. The 424 00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 2: first part, though, gets far less attention because the second 425 00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:16,919 Speaker 2: part is so egregious. But that first part where she says, 426 00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:21,679 Speaker 2: when you have a fire call, you want somebody to 427 00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:25,760 Speaker 2: respond who looks like you. No, yeah, that's that's not 428 00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:29,200 Speaker 2: a thing. There's no part of it. It goes, oh, okay, well, 429 00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:32,399 Speaker 2: well the cop, I mean the cop the firefighters showed up. 430 00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:35,639 Speaker 2: You know, he's white, so I have this feeling or 431 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:38,639 Speaker 2: that feeling or he's black or here's whatever that is. 432 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:42,320 Speaker 2: But see, it's really central to the whole DEI concept. 433 00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:44,639 Speaker 2: We need to have people who look like the people 434 00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:46,600 Speaker 2: that are going to serve, because somehow that will make 435 00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:49,360 Speaker 2: the people that are being served feel better instead of 436 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:51,800 Speaker 2: these are the best people to do this job that 437 00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:54,080 Speaker 2: we could find absolutely anywhere, who will keep you and 438 00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:57,240 Speaker 2: your property as safe as possible. Right, I just completely 439 00:23:57,320 --> 00:24:00,800 Speaker 2: reject what she starts out what she's starts out with there, 440 00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:03,080 Speaker 2: which is, you want somebody you know the same thing 441 00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:05,520 Speaker 2: of the cop. Do you care what color the cop is, 442 00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:08,680 Speaker 2: who rhymes or what well, I mean maybe gender. Do 443 00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:10,600 Speaker 2: you care what color the comp is who rhymes? No, 444 00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:12,320 Speaker 2: you don't. You just want the best cop? 445 00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:15,600 Speaker 1: Yes, and you want the baddest asked person to be 446 00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:18,840 Speaker 1: able to handle the most significant aspects of the job. 447 00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:23,080 Speaker 1: And I just I can't believe that this would be 448 00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:25,320 Speaker 1: a promotional video. This is the other part. Both of 449 00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:31,360 Speaker 1: those things are awfully wrong, But as part of promotion videos, 450 00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:34,399 Speaker 1: you decide what you want to feature. This is my 451 00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:38,520 Speaker 1: issue with Christy Nome. You know, if you go back 452 00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:42,840 Speaker 1: in time when you write your autobiography, everybody is limiting 453 00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:47,119 Speaker 1: the totality of their life into the one volume, and 454 00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:49,119 Speaker 1: the stories that you tell are the ones that you 455 00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:51,800 Speaker 1: feel are the most apropos and often put you in 456 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,120 Speaker 1: the best like for people who want to see your story. 457 00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:58,800 Speaker 1: It's important here to understand. Someone inside of the LA 458 00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:04,280 Speaker 1: Fire Department saw these promotional videos and said, oh, we 459 00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:08,960 Speaker 1: definitely need to feature this particular part of the interview 460 00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:11,800 Speaker 1: that this person, Christine Larson, I think is the name. 461 00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:14,840 Speaker 1: This person probably set for a forty five minute interview. 462 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:16,719 Speaker 1: For people who don't know how this stuff works, some 463 00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:20,000 Speaker 1: of you have probably been involved in promotional videos. Somebody, 464 00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:22,920 Speaker 1: an editor comes in and chops this up and says, oh, 465 00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:25,320 Speaker 1: that was a really good take. Oh we really like 466 00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:27,679 Speaker 1: the way that that you conveyed this. This is a 467 00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:30,680 Speaker 1: message we really want to get out there. And then 468 00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:34,280 Speaker 1: they chose to feature this. It's not like this was 469 00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:38,960 Speaker 1: a live interview and they decided, Oh, sometimes you say 470 00:25:38,960 --> 00:25:40,840 Speaker 1: in a live interview things that are not the best 471 00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:42,720 Speaker 1: version of what you would like to put out there. 472 00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:46,720 Speaker 1: This is the message they wanted to convey. Hey, if 473 00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:48,600 Speaker 1: your husband needs to be carried out in the fire, 474 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:51,679 Speaker 1: you're screwed. But man, we hope that you like the 475 00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:54,399 Speaker 1: fact that there's a woman firefighter showing up. It's actually 476 00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:57,959 Speaker 1: insulting also to a lot of other female firefighters who 477 00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 1: may be able to do the job a guy over 478 00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:01,120 Speaker 1: their shoulder. 479 00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:04,400 Speaker 2: Maybe not very any, but some very you. But yes, 480 00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:07,240 Speaker 2: I would be curious to see how that goes. But 481 00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:10,000 Speaker 2: but to your point about about the way that this 482 00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:16,720 Speaker 2: is presented, this is the DEI firefighter putting forward their 483 00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:21,000 Speaker 2: best foot. This isn't an offhand comment at the firehouse 484 00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:23,960 Speaker 2: that got caught in one cell phone video. This is, Hey, 485 00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:25,800 Speaker 2: we want to show you how great we are in 486 00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:28,879 Speaker 2: the LA Fire Department. And they're putting forward this video 487 00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:31,040 Speaker 2: that's supposed to make you think that they know what 488 00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:33,040 Speaker 2: they're doing and that they've got this under control. So 489 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:39,119 Speaker 2: clearly not not confidence inspiring, and given what has gone on, 490 00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:43,160 Speaker 2: I mean, the the absolute devastation these there's these whole 491 00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:46,240 Speaker 2: areas on the Palisades, most notably there are other areas 492 00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:49,600 Speaker 2: I know as well, Clay. They're not going to be 493 00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:52,560 Speaker 2: people aren't going to be able to live there for years. 494 00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:55,560 Speaker 2: It will take years to rebuild if they decide to 495 00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:58,119 Speaker 2: rebuild in these areas. If some people may just decide 496 00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:00,199 Speaker 2: just to you know, to take the insurance money on 497 00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:01,680 Speaker 2: the house, all the land and move, I don't know 498 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:04,440 Speaker 2: how that's going to work out. There are huge problems 499 00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:08,919 Speaker 2: also with the insurance, you know, the fire insurance industry 500 00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:14,080 Speaker 2: in these areas too. And it's you know, California has 501 00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:17,320 Speaker 2: weighed in, right, so the California and just have you 502 00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:19,560 Speaker 2: seen some of this people. There are lots of people 503 00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:24,160 Speaker 2: who lost their plans in the Palisades just this year 504 00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:25,920 Speaker 2: or in the last year, I should say it's twenty 505 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:30,600 Speaker 2: twenty five now, relatively recently. And it's because California puts 506 00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:33,840 Speaker 2: all these mandates for you know, what level of coverage 507 00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:36,040 Speaker 2: there can be, how much coverage, how expensive it can be, 508 00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:40,159 Speaker 2: and so then they also have this uh, this state 509 00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:43,600 Speaker 2: fond to forget what it's called. There's this fair fair 510 00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:48,040 Speaker 2: I think where that's your insurance of last resort for 511 00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:51,840 Speaker 2: fire home insurance and it's nowhere near enough to cover 512 00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:55,640 Speaker 2: the homes, right so they so they have a pool 513 00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:58,600 Speaker 2: that is not going to be sufficient to cover the damage. 514 00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:02,040 Speaker 2: After California, his mandates made it so that some of 515 00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:05,960 Speaker 2: the largest insurers pulled out entirely. And you know, you 516 00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:09,240 Speaker 2: sit here and you go, this is just again poor manage. 517 00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:11,480 Speaker 2: It's poor management of everything, poor management of fire, poor 518 00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:14,520 Speaker 2: management of insurance, poor management across the board. You don't 519 00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:16,479 Speaker 2: want to be in a state run by Gavin Newsom. 520 00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:19,880 Speaker 1: Can we go to this call because I think Jeremy's 521 00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:22,680 Speaker 1: gonna speak for a lot of firefighters out there who 522 00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:26,880 Speaker 1: just heard the clip that we played of that LA firefighter. 523 00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:31,359 Speaker 1: And Jeremy, what's your reaction when you hear this highly 524 00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:34,920 Speaker 1: paid LA firefighter saying, Hey, if your husband's gonna needs 525 00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:37,160 Speaker 1: to be carried out, he found himself in a bad spot. 526 00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:41,840 Speaker 2: Four hundred grand, Clay, four hundred grand. Sorry, go ahead, Jeremy. 527 00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:47,200 Speaker 6: I think she's a complete and total moron. Number one 528 00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:50,600 Speaker 6: is never the victim's fault at all. Yeah, it is 529 00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:55,920 Speaker 6: a situation that happened, and I don't care the house 530 00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:59,080 Speaker 6: called on fire. You may have been asleep down your trap. 531 00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:02,440 Speaker 6: How is that your pahont But I. 532 00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:06,200 Speaker 1: Mean, isn't that one of the key jobs of a 533 00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:09,960 Speaker 1: firefighter would be to get anybody out? And so when 534 00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:12,600 Speaker 1: you're saying, oh, he got himself into a bad spot, 535 00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:15,120 Speaker 1: I mean, this has to infuriate firefighters everywhere. 536 00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:16,640 Speaker 2: I would think, oh, oh. 537 00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:21,520 Speaker 6: It completely ticks me out, because my thing is we 538 00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:27,719 Speaker 6: do it to save lives, not property. Lives. Property houses 539 00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:31,320 Speaker 6: and stuff can be rebuilt. You cannot get your life back. 540 00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:36,360 Speaker 6: And another thing that really aggravated me about her comment 541 00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:42,760 Speaker 6: was if you can't carry them out, you drag them out. 542 00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:48,920 Speaker 2: Yes, sir, yeah, thank you, thank you for calling in Jeremy, 543 00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:52,120 Speaker 2: I mean, Clay, this is this is where you see 544 00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:56,120 Speaker 2: the people that always claim diversity doesn't mean less capable. 545 00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:00,280 Speaker 2: You know, when you have a focus on diverse city, 546 00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:03,720 Speaker 2: meaning when you're hiring for diversity, when you're advancing people 547 00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:07,080 Speaker 2: for that reason, it always is shown to be false. 548 00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:10,800 Speaker 2: They're there because if your focus is merit, then you 549 00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:13,480 Speaker 2: don't have to talk about DEI. So the moment that 550 00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:15,880 Speaker 2: you're focusing on DEEI, you're not focusing on merit. So 551 00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:18,720 Speaker 2: these things work. This is they work, you know, in 552 00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:21,680 Speaker 2: distinction to each other, in contradiction to each other. 553 00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:25,200 Speaker 1: But we'll come back in a second. Breaking news I 554 00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:30,640 Speaker 1: just saw speaking of DEI Meta, Facebook is ending all 555 00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:36,360 Speaker 1: DEI programs in the company. So Zuckerberg said, hey, we're 556 00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:39,560 Speaker 1: done with fact checking. This is a headline that I 557 00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:45,600 Speaker 1: just got from Axios Exclusive three minutes ago. They are 558 00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:50,520 Speaker 1: ending DEI in in Meta, which is big in Silicon 559 00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:53,240 Speaker 1: Valley because this has been one of the places that 560 00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:55,400 Speaker 1: has most foisted DEI upon us. 561 00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:56,360 Speaker 2: We'll talk more about that. 562 00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:58,800 Speaker 1: I just think of timing is interesting because we're having 563 00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:02,840 Speaker 1: the LA wildfire discussion in the random fire chief who 564 00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:05,600 Speaker 1: says you can't actually do the job. Your husband's screwed 565 00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:07,120 Speaker 1: basically if he ends up in need. 566 00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:07,920 Speaker 2: Well. 567 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:10,920 Speaker 1: Also, i'd love to hear from other firefighters when you 568 00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:13,360 Speaker 1: hear that audio, what your reaction is. Appreciate the call 569 00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:16,080 Speaker 1: from Alabama eight hundred and two A two two eight 570 00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:19,560 Speaker 1: A two. And we also need to talk speaking of courts, 571 00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:23,800 Speaker 1: big TikTok hearing at the Supreme Court today, Buck, and 572 00:31:24,280 --> 00:31:26,480 Speaker 1: it's going to be intriguing to see what they do 573 00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:28,760 Speaker 1: about the potential looming TikTok band. 574 00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:30,440 Speaker 2: We'll talk about all that more. 575 00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:34,040 Speaker 1: But in my home state of Tennessee, great company, Legacy Box. 576 00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:36,680 Speaker 1: We just got through Christmas, we just got through New 577 00:31:36,760 --> 00:31:39,479 Speaker 1: Year's we just got through Thanksgiving. How many of you 578 00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:43,320 Speaker 1: set around and looked at old family photos from past 579 00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:46,520 Speaker 1: holidays with people that you've experienced your friends and family 580 00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:50,000 Speaker 1: those holidays with, and how many new memories. 581 00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:50,120 Speaker 2: Did you make? 582 00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:52,840 Speaker 1: I bet almost all of your new memories were digital 583 00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:55,960 Speaker 1: in nature. That is, people were taking photos from their phone. 584 00:31:56,040 --> 00:31:59,760 Speaker 1: They were easily texting all those photos. Grandma gets them, 585 00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:03,400 Speaker 1: Grandpa gets them. Everybody's able to look at those digital photos. 586 00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:07,040 Speaker 1: They're spread around easily via text message. But how many 587 00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:10,520 Speaker 1: old great memories are you not able to share because 588 00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:14,040 Speaker 1: they're not digitized. Maybe they're still in grandma's attic, maybe 589 00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:17,800 Speaker 1: they're in your aunt or uncle's control. How many of 590 00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:20,000 Speaker 1: those photos would you like to be able to share easily? 591 00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:22,640 Speaker 1: That's what Legacy Box does. It's not just photos as 592 00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:27,120 Speaker 1: certainly VHS tapes as well, but it's your old family memories, digitize, 593 00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:30,160 Speaker 1: preserve forever.

You guys all know 628 00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:14,319 Speaker 2: that also with the in laws, and so, uh, I'm 629 00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:18,160 Speaker 2: wondering what it is that you plan on doing this weekend? Football? 630 00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:21,040 Speaker 2: What is it when you're just football all weekends? 631 00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:24,360 Speaker 1: It's playoff season. So I'm going to watch the Ohio 632 00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:27,200 Speaker 1: State Texas game tonight and then I'm watching all six 633 00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:29,600 Speaker 1: games on the weekend. I meant to tell you you 634 00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:33,839 Speaker 1: haven't seen Gladiator two yet, Right, No, how was it? 635 00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:34,080 Speaker 6: It was? 636 00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:34,440 Speaker 2: Okay? 637 00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:36,840 Speaker 1: I would give it a solid I mean, if you 638 00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:39,799 Speaker 1: just Gladiator one is a ten, right. 639 00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:42,480 Speaker 2: I agreed with that, Clay and I I think I 640 00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:45,800 Speaker 2: think you are about two letter grades nicer about movies 641 00:34:45,800 --> 00:34:48,799 Speaker 2: in general than I am. You're you're nicer about movie reviews. 642 00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:51,800 Speaker 1: I would give it a seven, so it would have 643 00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:54,919 Speaker 1: if it stood alone as a movie and Gladiator one 644 00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:58,160 Speaker 1: had never occurred, it would be seen, I think as 645 00:34:58,239 --> 00:35:00,719 Speaker 1: better even than it is because it's being judged in 646 00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:03,960 Speaker 1: the context of the original Gladiator. I would give it 647 00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:07,000 Speaker 1: a solid seven out of ten worth going to see. 648 00:35:07,040 --> 00:35:08,840 Speaker 1: I meant to give my review. I think this was 649 00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:11,319 Speaker 1: like right around Christmas that I went to go see 650 00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:13,759 Speaker 1: the movie. I don't know how many other people went 651 00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:16,720 Speaker 1: out and saw it, but I would say a solid 652 00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:20,040 Speaker 1: seven out of ten worth going to see. I don't 653 00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:21,960 Speaker 1: even know if it's still on in the theater or 654 00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:24,399 Speaker 1: if you can now get it and stream it. 655 00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:27,720 Speaker 2: It would definitely be worth streaming at home. I haven't 656 00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:30,000 Speaker 2: been to a movie alone in a very long I 657 00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:31,879 Speaker 2: think I've done once or twice before when I really 658 00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:35,319 Speaker 2: wanted to see a movie by myself. I saw The 659 00:35:35,360 --> 00:35:37,479 Speaker 2: Passion of the Christ alone. That's I think the only 660 00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:40,040 Speaker 2: movie that I've ever seen in theater. And he saw 661 00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:42,000 Speaker 2: Mel Gibson's making the rounds these days. He was on 662 00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:47,200 Speaker 2: The Rogan Show. But I might go see Nose Faratu. 663 00:35:47,239 --> 00:35:49,200 Speaker 2: I'm trying to get myself up to the Have you 664 00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:52,040 Speaker 2: guys seen this the remake of the original Nose Faratu? 665 00:35:52,160 --> 00:35:55,400 Speaker 2: Have you seen the original?

I don't know if you 668 00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:04,720 Speaker 2: read the reviews, it's a little uh dark and funky 669 00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:08,400 Speaker 2: stuff going on. Bad review Oh, Producer Ali says bad reviews. 670 00:36:08,560 --> 00:36:09,080 Speaker 2: I thought the. 671 00:36:09,040 --> 00:36:11,960 Speaker 1: Reviews were actually pretty good. The original Nose Faratu. I 672 00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:15,280 Speaker 1: took a German film course and I wrote a paper 673 00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:17,560 Speaker 1: on the original Nose Faratu movies. 674 00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:20,600 Speaker 2: That's like the biggest gut course I've ever heard of. 675 00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:23,200 Speaker 2: I took a German film course in college. 676 00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:29,000 Speaker 1: I also play Russian Russian cinema Russian cinema courses.
