Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show. Appreciate all 4 00:00:12,960 --> 00:00:14,760 Speaker 1: of you hanging out with us. Encourage you to go 5 00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:17,200 Speaker 1: download the podcast. Make sure you don't miss a single 6 00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:19,720 Speaker 1: minute the show. Maybe you missed the first hour just 7 00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:21,360 Speaker 1: hanging out with us. To start the second hour, we 8 00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:25,400 Speaker 1: talked a lot about the failed recall of Governor Gavin Newsom, 9 00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:28,680 Speaker 1: whether he might be now one of the people who's 10 00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:31,720 Speaker 1: willing to challenge Kamala Harris going forward in the Democratic 11 00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:34,240 Speaker 1: Party in the event that Joe Biden is not running 12 00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:36,159 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty four, which I think most of us 13 00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:39,919 Speaker 1: would anticipate will be the case. We also have been 14 00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:42,560 Speaker 1: talking a lot about General Millie in his back channel 15 00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:45,640 Speaker 1: conversations with China and whether or not that might be 16 00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:48,320 Speaker 1: treason us, whether it might be a form of espionage, 17 00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:51,680 Speaker 1: whether he might and should be subject to court martial 18 00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:55,200 Speaker 1: for defying the orders potentially or telling China that he 19 00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:58,360 Speaker 1: would defy the orders of the commander in chief at 20 00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:01,480 Speaker 1: the time, President Donald Trump. And what is amazing here 21 00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:05,759 Speaker 1: is how many people are lining up to make the 22 00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:09,240 Speaker 1: argument that this makes General Milly heroic, and in fact, 23 00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:13,840 Speaker 1: many people are arguing that he's protecting democracy. And I 24 00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:16,520 Speaker 1: just want to continue to hammer this home because I 25 00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:19,520 Speaker 1: think it's significant, and Buck, you know this better than 26 00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:24,480 Speaker 1: almost anybody having worked in the intelligence agencies the United States. 27 00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:27,600 Speaker 1: The reason why our commander in chief is a civilian 28 00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:32,280 Speaker 1: is to avoid exactly this from happening, to avoid the 29 00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:38,120 Speaker 1: military being able to take control of a democratically elected 30 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:43,480 Speaker 1: president's decision making. And it is a challenge and a 31 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:47,160 Speaker 1: difference in the way that things are organized for someone 32 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:51,400 Speaker 1: who oftentimes has never served in the military. Bill Clinton 33 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:54,360 Speaker 1: never served in the military. Barack Obama never served in 34 00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:57,560 Speaker 1: the military. Donald Trump never served in the military. There 35 00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:00,920 Speaker 1: are lots of our leaders who have not been in 36 00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 1: the military, and so we want a civilian commander in 37 00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:10,680 Speaker 1: chief to send the message that the military is always 38 00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:14,200 Speaker 1: subject to the will of a democratically elected president, that 39 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:19,120 Speaker 1: the military serves the people, not the military's generals. And 40 00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:25,320 Speaker 1: in a hierarchical system where you have direct response authority 41 00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 1: to your commanding officer, you can see how it could 42 00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:32,959 Speaker 1: easily spiral into a coup like situation, which has happened 43 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:36,600 Speaker 1: all around the world. When a high level general decides 44 00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:39,600 Speaker 1: I'm not going to listen to my superior I'm going 45 00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:42,079 Speaker 1: to do what I think is best right, that is 46 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:45,160 Speaker 1: a fundamental attack upon democracy itself. There's a reason why 47 00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:48,720 Speaker 1: coups don't usually happen based on the head of the 48 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 1: education department or the sanitation department. Right, the guy who's 49 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 1: in charge of the Grandma is going to the capital 50 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 1: to take selfies. It's yeah, but you know there's a 51 00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 1: reason why, historic and otherwise it's the guys who have 52 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:05,360 Speaker 1: control over the people with the guns. We all know this, 53 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 1: which is why what you're talking about is so essential, 54 00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:13,240 Speaker 1: so important. But this reflexive partisanship on an issue that 55 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 1: you would think maybe would break through somewhat beyond that 56 00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 1: is fascinating because I remember, it's not Clay. They don't 57 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 1: feel the need to defend General really so much that 58 00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:28,440 Speaker 1: defending General Milly. They are praising and honoring him for 59 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 1: this right. So it's not enough to say the guy 60 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 1: that did the weird, bad thing against Trump shouldn't have 61 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 1: done it, but it wasn't that big a deal, or 62 00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 1: let's not blow it out of proportion. No, it's the 63 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 1: person who did the underhanded thing against Trump, who betrayed 64 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:47,680 Speaker 1: the then commander in chiefs trust, is a hero. As 65 00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 1: we've been discussed that, yeah, and that's going that's the 66 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:53,680 Speaker 1: gaslighting part of this. And even further than that, Buck 67 00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:58,800 Speaker 1: Claire McCaskill said he was trying to defend democracy, which 68 00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:03,000 Speaker 1: is actually turning on its head the entire purpose of 69 00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 1: what military subservience to a civilian commander in chief actually represents. 70 00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:11,840 Speaker 1: And she should know better as a former senator. And 71 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 1: that's why I'm going to tee off here listening to 72 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:17,840 Speaker 1: cut five yesterday after it is revealed like some kind 73 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 1: of shocked to Marco Rubio that our top general was 74 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 1: calling to defend democracy, as Joe said, to an undemocratic 75 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 1: leader in the world, to make sure that a war 76 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 1: didn't break out, to make sure they knew our strength 77 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 1: was much stronger than the nonsense that Donald Trump was creating. 78 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:39,520 Speaker 1: What does Trump say, fire him for treason? I mean, 79 00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 1: this is really something that these people are still following 80 00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:46,919 Speaker 1: this guy when he is so bad at respecting the 81 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 1: constitution in the rule of black She really needs down, Buck, 82 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 1: she needs some yoga. I mean, she needs to calm down. 83 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 1: There's something really it's it's discomfiting. It's it's uncomfortable to 84 00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:03,159 Speaker 1: hear what someone like this in a position of authority 85 00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 1: in the United States government just saying clay because it's 86 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:09,720 Speaker 1: so deluded. I mean, it's really a break with reality. 87 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:13,359 Speaker 1: It's divorced from what it's observable truth. What was this 88 00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 1: huge threat to demand this system actually played out? I mean, 89 00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:19,239 Speaker 1: we're seeing this all happen. What was the big problem 90 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:21,800 Speaker 1: exactly here? There were disputes about it, Like there's been 91 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:25,400 Speaker 1: disputes about elections in the past, everything ended up being resolved. 92 00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 1: Everything ended up. You know, while I say resolved, I 93 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:30,039 Speaker 1: should say the system continued on. I know there's a 94 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:33,080 Speaker 1: lot that's unresolved for people about actually how they feel 95 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:36,640 Speaker 1: the votes were counted and not counted, etc. But war 96 00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:41,719 Speaker 1: with China. How does Trump saying they let people vote 97 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:43,720 Speaker 1: out of their county in Georgia, which by the way, 98 00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:45,640 Speaker 1: they did do, which is against Georgia state law. But 99 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 1: we're not supposed to talk about that. How does that 100 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:54,040 Speaker 1: equate to invading China or you know, missile strikes on Beijing. 101 00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 1: This is lunacy. This is not joy Reid who somehow 102 00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:00,200 Speaker 1: gets a television show because she's a media perform or 103 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,200 Speaker 1: on television. What you just heard is Claire McCaskill, who 104 00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:05,919 Speaker 1: spent twelve years in the United States Senate, and she 105 00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:09,919 Speaker 1: is fundamentally not understanding the role of the Constitution and 106 00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:13,320 Speaker 1: in fact inverting the role of the Constitution to argue 107 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 1: that a military official is preserving the Constitution by flagrantly 108 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:21,560 Speaker 1: violating his obligations as the chairman of the Joint chiefs 109 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:25,960 Speaker 1: of Staff. And Joe Scarborough Buck also theoretically, and by 110 00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:29,440 Speaker 1: the way, Clare McCaskill, also a lawyer, has been theoretically 111 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:32,080 Speaker 1: able to pass the bar in Missouri and serve for 112 00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:35,360 Speaker 1: twelve years in the Senate. Joe Scarborough is making the 113 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:39,479 Speaker 1: same argument on MSNBC and Buck he's a former Republican congressman. 114 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 1: I know he sold his ethics down the river and 115 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:44,280 Speaker 1: whoever pays him the most, that's what he stands for 116 00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:46,360 Speaker 1: it And yeah, that's what he stands for. But this 117 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 1: is a guy who was from I believe, the Gulf 118 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 1: of Florida, the Panhandle, and now he's saying that anybody 119 00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:58,920 Speaker 1: attacking General Millie is stupid. Listen to this that he's 120 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 1: calling a leader and shine us saying, don't think you 121 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 1: can take advantage of the United States of America. Democracy 122 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 1: can be chaotic, but we're strong, we're solid, we're in 123 00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:14,360 Speaker 1: good shape. Nothing's going to happen. We're not going to 124 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:18,040 Speaker 1: act erratically, and you're not going to take advantage of us. 125 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:21,240 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, this is some Republicans don't like this. This 126 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:24,160 Speaker 1: is something. Are you so stupid? I just got to ask, 127 00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 1: are you so stupid? Are you so ignorant of how 128 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:30,480 Speaker 1: things work? So you don't know that From time to time, 129 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:34,240 Speaker 1: generals talk to generals, diplomats talk to diplomats, and they 130 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:36,920 Speaker 1: send that message, Hey, things look kind of crazy in 131 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:40,440 Speaker 1: the United States. We don't take advantage of this situation. 132 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:44,520 Speaker 1: Don't take advantage of it. No solid, He leaves out 133 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 1: the whole. I'll tell you if we're going to attack, 134 00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:50,679 Speaker 1: and I'm not going to listen to my commander in chief, 135 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:53,080 Speaker 1: which is a pretty big part here too, we're going 136 00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:56,600 Speaker 1: to subvert the chain of command on a direct order basis. 137 00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 1: And also the war that you're for some reason worried 138 00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:01,360 Speaker 1: about that I'm even talking. I mean, you should be 139 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 1: saying that that's absurd, that's laughable. Of course that's not 140 00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:05,840 Speaker 1: gonna happen. Of course Trump's not going to start a 141 00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:09,960 Speaker 1: war with China. The whole thing is crazy town. But 142 00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:13,920 Speaker 1: notice this is a continuation of a Democrat strategy that 143 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:16,880 Speaker 1: they've been using in the Trump era, which is really 144 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:18,679 Speaker 1: just a version of they want to burn the village 145 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 1: down in order to save it when it kind when 146 00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:23,640 Speaker 1: it came to undermining our institutions of government, remember that 147 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:26,520 Speaker 1: was the big talking point. Yeah, they're undermining our institutions 148 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:28,960 Speaker 1: of government, they would say. And then you see, we'll 149 00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:31,320 Speaker 1: hold on a second. There are people in the intelligence 150 00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:36,520 Speaker 1: community working with journalists to surveil the Trump presidential campaign 151 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:41,680 Speaker 1: and then continue that with FAISA into the actual or 152 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 1: at the start of the administration. They have they have 153 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:47,960 Speaker 1: comy briefing on the dossier. I mean, you look at 154 00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:51,840 Speaker 1: these things. That was all subverting the system, the will 155 00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:55,080 Speaker 1: of the people as shown in the twenty sixteen election results. 156 00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:58,080 Speaker 1: But they would talk about how they were saving the system, Clay, 157 00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:01,480 Speaker 1: they saved the system by destroy they prop up the 158 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:05,360 Speaker 1: chain of command by undermining it. I mean, people abuse 159 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:08,120 Speaker 1: the term Orwellian a lot. You know, war is peace, 160 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:12,400 Speaker 1: you know, freedom is slavery, etc. But this is actually 161 00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:14,840 Speaker 1: orwell again, this is what we are seeing play out 162 00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:18,480 Speaker 1: with the Democrat narrative of anything we gotta do to 163 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:22,079 Speaker 1: keep our side on offense against Trump. We're and even 164 00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 1: though Trump's we just saw us with Gavin Us, Trump's 165 00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:26,480 Speaker 1: not even in an office anymore, doesn't matter. He's the 166 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 1: great boogeyman. This is why I always say, you have 167 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:34,400 Speaker 1: to be loyalty to idea, loyal to loyal to ideals, 168 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:38,040 Speaker 1: not necessarily to people. And that's why I like to 169 00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:41,560 Speaker 1: always think about this from a legal perspective, because a 170 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:45,840 Speaker 1: lot of times individuals there's a great legal aphorism which 171 00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:49,320 Speaker 1: is tough cases make bad law. And I think the 172 00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:53,920 Speaker 1: Democratic Party abandoned all principles because they became convinced that 173 00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:57,120 Speaker 1: Donald Trump was the worst person who's ever existed basically 174 00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:59,719 Speaker 1: in the world of politics. And as a result, so 175 00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:03,480 Speaker 1: I'm saying, for Claire McCaskill or Joe Scarborough or Joy 176 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:05,280 Speaker 1: Read or any of these people that we played the 177 00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:11,120 Speaker 1: audio from praising General Millie, exact same situation applies, except 178 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 1: Joe Biden is the president that is being undermined. Is 179 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:16,960 Speaker 1: Millie still a hero? Is he still a courageous fighter 180 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:21,400 Speaker 1: for the constitution or is he subverting our entire constitutional system. 181 00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:23,320 Speaker 1: I think one of the best and clearest examples of 182 00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:26,840 Speaker 1: exactly what you talked about, the abandonment of principle in 183 00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:30,160 Speaker 1: the name of the principle of anti Trumpism, which superseds 184 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:33,960 Speaker 1: everything else, is what journalist did journalists for four years 185 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:36,480 Speaker 1: Averry Trump started to just come out and say it. 186 00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:40,960 Speaker 1: Speaking the truth to power here means anything goes to 187 00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:43,560 Speaker 1: hurt Trump. I mean, you know, doing our job as 188 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:47,760 Speaker 1: the guardians of the republic. You know, the fourth the State, 189 00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:50,400 Speaker 1: really the fifth column, but the fourth the State. I mean, 190 00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:54,000 Speaker 1: they felt like whatever they had to do to defeat 191 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:58,560 Speaker 1: Trump was inherently justified, even if it meant undermining the 192 00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:02,480 Speaker 1: very foundational precepts of their work, which is supposed to 193 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:04,760 Speaker 1: be presenting information to the American people and allowing them 194 00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 1: to decide they change their tune on that. That's right. 195 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:10,040 Speaker 1: So clearly this happened. We all know that this happened, 196 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:13,080 Speaker 1: and I think they haven't even processed how much we 197 00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:15,880 Speaker 1: haven't forgotten it. And that's why when you have these people, 198 00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:18,079 Speaker 1: I mean, you're mentioned that you mentioned Clare mccaskell and 199 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:21,560 Speaker 1: Joy read over it over at MSNBC. I mean, I 200 00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:23,880 Speaker 1: have conservative friends that actually will watch the Joy Reid 201 00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 1: Show just because they they find it unintentionally hilarious sometimes, 202 00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 1: which is actually how I felt about the mattou Show 203 00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:32,920 Speaker 1: monologue on occasion where she would go on some you 204 00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:36,840 Speaker 1: know a guy named Sergey you know, bought a perogue 205 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:41,800 Speaker 1: in nineteen eighty seven. YadA, YadA, YadA. Trump putin collusion, right, 206 00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:43,840 Speaker 1: you just say what, this is what you do night 207 00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 1: after night, and after she makes forty million dollars a 208 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:49,760 Speaker 1: year from NBC, I think, I mean, hey, it pays 209 00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:52,280 Speaker 1: well to sell yourself. She's at least smart. Mattoo is 210 00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:56,320 Speaker 1: a Rhodes scholar, So I mean, which is scarier scarier 211 00:11:56,360 --> 00:12:01,320 Speaker 1: than Joy Reid, who is just wrote scholarships are very political. 212 00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:04,600 Speaker 1: It's a conversation for another time, that is. But yeah, 213 00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:10,640 Speaker 1: Scarborough and Joy Read and Claire McCaskill just completely subverting 214 00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:14,000 Speaker 1: the entire purpose of our constitution and turning millionto a 215 00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:19,000 Speaker 1: hero is I think a fundamental failure of principal democracy 216 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 1: dies in darkness. Remember all that jazz which you got 217 00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:23,640 Speaker 1: for us. Well, let's let's turn our tention away from 218 00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:26,720 Speaker 1: the silliness of the left to something that really matters. 219 00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:29,880 Speaker 1: The Tunnel to Towers Foundation, they follow the words of 220 00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:33,520 Speaker 1: Saint Francis of ass While we have time, let us 221 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:37,520 Speaker 1: do good, and they're doing good every day across this country. 222 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:40,400 Speaker 1: Tunnel to Towers Foundation has done incredible things this year. 223 00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:43,280 Speaker 1: There's even more to come. They're gifting two hundred mortgage 224 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:45,720 Speaker 1: free homes to America's heroes and their families. And the 225 00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:50,040 Speaker 1: foundation's CEO and chairman walk from the Pentagon to Shanksville 226 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:54,119 Speaker 1: to downtown Manhattan where he retraced his baby brother's footsteps 227 00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:56,200 Speaker 1: Clay the morning of nine to eleven. I mean it 228 00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:59,360 Speaker 1: was really emotional, no doubt. And I don't know about you, Buck, 229 00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:01,559 Speaker 1: but I got a bunch of photos from friends who 230 00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:04,560 Speaker 1: lived in the DC in New York area, letting us 231 00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:07,640 Speaker 1: see the towers of light that lit the sky Pentagon 232 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:11,560 Speaker 1: and Shanksville. It was an amazing, majestic scene. And we 233 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:14,840 Speaker 1: also know that people we lost to nine eleven related 234 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:18,360 Speaker 1: illnesses were honored at a ceremony on September twelfth. For 235 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:21,640 Speaker 1: the first time in our nation's history, they're recognizing those 236 00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:24,040 Speaker 1: we lost in the War on Terror in a ceremony 237 00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 1: on Veterans Day, and between Thanksgiving and New Year's they'll 238 00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:30,160 Speaker 1: give away a home a day in their season of hope. 239 00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:33,200 Speaker 1: Tremendous work they're doing. You can help tunnel the towers 240 00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:36,240 Speaker 1: do good. All you have to do is donate eleven 241 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 1: dollars a month at t twot dot org.

Miley didn't commit treason to hear me out. 265 00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:05,440 Speaker 1: You're not gonna be able to make that stick because 266 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:07,240 Speaker 1: we're not at war with China. Number one. Is it 267 00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:09,360 Speaker 1: what I said yesterday about the treason statue. But go 268 00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:13,280 Speaker 1: ahead exactly exactly and when it sets enemy, you need 269 00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:16,280 Speaker 1: to understand China is not our enemy. They are an adversary. 270 00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:19,040 Speaker 1: And that is an important very. That is an important 271 00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:23,400 Speaker 1: legal distinction recognize under the US military and then their doctrine. 272 00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:27,360 Speaker 1: An adversary may want to do harm to you. They 273 00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:29,360 Speaker 1: may be trying to do harm to you, but they're 274 00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:32,040 Speaker 1: not an enemy to you. Have a declaration of war. Now, 275 00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:37,120 Speaker 1: what you can charge Milly with is sedition. Mutiny and 276 00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:40,480 Speaker 1: sedition under article ninety four of the Uniform Cut of 277 00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:44,640 Speaker 1: Military Justice, among other charges. Now it's Milly really had 278 00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:47,880 Speaker 1: legitimate concerns about John. Sorry to cut you off, this 279 00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:49,960 Speaker 1: is this is a great call. Are you have you 280 00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:54,160 Speaker 1: had experience in military tribunals or in courts of military 281 00:15:55,200 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 1: determination in the past, Yes, somewhat. I may retired military 282 00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 1: field great officer, so familiar, familiar with the UCMJ, and 283 00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:07,560 Speaker 1: now it applies. And if you can actually get on 284 00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:10,400 Speaker 1: duck duck, go, don't use Google. Don't go on duck duck, 285 00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:15,640 Speaker 1: go and look and search for use CMJ article ninety four, 286 00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:20,680 Speaker 1: and it will lay it out for you in plain language. Okay, seriously, 287 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:22,400 Speaker 1: you need to read it online. I'm not going to 288 00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:24,400 Speaker 1: do that here for you, but you really should pull 289 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:26,560 Speaker 1: it up and read it for your audience. Your audience 290 00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:30,120 Speaker 1: needs to go out there Article ninety four UCMJ. Now, 291 00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:33,440 Speaker 1: if Miley had a concern about Trump's state of mind, 292 00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:38,920 Speaker 1: his duty was to take that to the Secretary of Defense, 293 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:40,800 Speaker 1: who was the next thing in his chain of command, 294 00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:45,920 Speaker 1: and or the vice president and trying to have Trump 295 00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:50,680 Speaker 1: removed under Amendment twenty five. If you really have a 296 00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:56,120 Speaker 1: legitimate concern, and I can't speak to what Miley thought 297 00:16:56,440 --> 00:16:58,600 Speaker 1: at that time, whether he really believed it or not. 298 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:01,800 Speaker 1: Is the fact that he reached out to the Chinese. 299 00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:05,120 Speaker 1: That's okay. We do. We do have agreements in place 300 00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:07,720 Speaker 1: with the Chinese so that our generals can talk to 301 00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 1: their generals. Now, what he said may be unlawful, it 302 00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:13,520 Speaker 1: may violate Espionage Act, but you're not going to make 303 00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:16,080 Speaker 1: a stick for treason. Thank you for the car. Here's 304 00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:18,520 Speaker 1: the question. You made that argument, Buck, We're not even 305 00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:21,199 Speaker 1: having to talk about all his incompetence in Afghanistan right now. 306 00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:24,640 Speaker 1: This is an amazing thing about General Millie's failures. We're 307 00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:27,360 Speaker 1: talking about something that happened basically a year. I think 308 00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:31,560 Speaker 1: I think he's this revelation from Woodward. Get ready for this, folks. 309 00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:36,919 Speaker 1: He's adding zeros to his left wing sponsored book deals 310 00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:40,440 Speaker 1: and speaking engagements right now. You think we think he's 311 00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:42,720 Speaker 1: in trouble, he thinks he's gonna be patting his bank 312 00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:44,840 Speaker 1: account down the line. That's I think that's an astute 313 00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:49,119 Speaker 1: point by you. Also, does he protect himself for Afghanistan 314 00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:52,200 Speaker 1: failure by going all in on the anti Trump. It's 315 00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:55,200 Speaker 1: like he's shifting the storyline because now It's like, hey, 316 00:17:55,359 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 1: remember look at Trump, Look how bad he was.

By the way, 354 00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:49,640 Speaker 1: Jen Saki, we were just talking about Millie coming out 355 00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:52,960 Speaker 1: and saying the President has complete faith in General Millie 356 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:56,760 Speaker 1: and in his loyalty to the Constitution. It truly is 357 00:19:57,119 --> 00:19:59,840 Speaker 1: an upside down world. And speaking of an upside down world, 358 00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:02,600 Speaker 1: what's going on with COVID continues to be madness. A 359 00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:05,600 Speaker 1: couple of different stories that are out there. The Buffalo Bills, 360 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:08,800 Speaker 1: for those of you who are a fan of sports, 361 00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills have become the first team in all 362 00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:17,680 Speaker 1: of American sports, to my knowledge, to require that you 363 00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:20,560 Speaker 1: have a vaccine in order to be able to attend 364 00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:23,639 Speaker 1: their football games. That is, you can't get a negative test, 365 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:28,600 Speaker 1: you can't have any sort of exception. You have to 366 00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:32,640 Speaker 1: have a COVID vaccine in order to attend the Buffalo 367 00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:36,480 Speaker 1: Bills football games. Now this is ironic, Buck, because the 368 00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:41,080 Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills have several different players that have refused themselves 369 00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:46,040 Speaker 1: to get vaccinated. It's also ironic because give credit here, 370 00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:51,679 Speaker 1: the NBA Players Association has refused to allow the NBA 371 00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:55,040 Speaker 1: to mandate the COVID vaccine for NBA players. Now, this 372 00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:58,560 Speaker 1: is what the Players Association should exist to do. They 373 00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:01,840 Speaker 1: should advocate for a minority of employees. But now we've 374 00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:05,119 Speaker 1: got the NBA lined up against Joe Biden because there 375 00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:08,720 Speaker 1: are more than a hundred NBA employees and Joe Biden 376 00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:12,800 Speaker 1: is mandating either vaccine or daily test. So credit to 377 00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:16,440 Speaker 1: the NBA Players Association, Michelle Roberts is their president for 378 00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:19,480 Speaker 1: standing up in favor of the fifteen percent of NBA 379 00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:23,480 Speaker 1: players that have refused to get vaccinated so far, because again, 380 00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:26,879 Speaker 1: vaccine should be a choice, not a mandate by the 381 00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:31,040 Speaker 1: federal government or in my opinion, of your employer. And 382 00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:34,200 Speaker 1: now the latest controversy in COVID, and this is just 383 00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:37,040 Speaker 1: getting to the height of absurdity. I don't know how 384 00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:39,239 Speaker 1: many people out there in our audience is a good 385 00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:43,040 Speaker 1: question and of itself, are familiar with Nicki Minaj. She 386 00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:47,720 Speaker 1: is a rapper, she is a often how would we 387 00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:53,320 Speaker 1: describe it? Controversial? Controversial? Controversial is a kind that's like 388 00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:58,080 Speaker 1: the newsman way to say this, right, our controversial NII video? 389 00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:01,960 Speaker 1: What's going on there? By the way, every time my 390 00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 1: name is mentioned in the news, I am described as 391 00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:08,520 Speaker 1: controversial just because of the one the one time you 392 00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:11,080 Speaker 1: said the word with the first amendment boobs. No, it's 393 00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:15,159 Speaker 1: like you're controversial if you have any opinion that is 394 00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:18,440 Speaker 1: not mainstream left wing. That's just think about it. The 395 00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 1: way that they describe who is controversial. I'm always described 396 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:24,920 Speaker 1: as controversial. Nicki Minaj. Uh, really, do you have a 397 00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:26,920 Speaker 1: favorite Nicki Minaj song? Like? Can you even think of 398 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:29,240 Speaker 1: one off the top of your head. I'm the worst 399 00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:33,440 Speaker 1: person when it comes to to like songs, like my 400 00:22:33,560 --> 00:22:35,760 Speaker 1: wife is good at songs. My kids are all into 401 00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:38,480 Speaker 1: music and everything else. I never know who sings anything 402 00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:40,399 Speaker 1: like I'm not a are you a music guy? Like 403 00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:43,240 Speaker 1: I'm not great like I when they're popular songs like 404 00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:47,240 Speaker 1: the nineteen nineties, I can nail it, like nineteen nineties rap, 405 00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:50,600 Speaker 1: nineteen nineties rock like all of that, Like I drive 406 00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:52,960 Speaker 1: around in my car when I listen to music. I 407 00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:56,120 Speaker 1: listened to the Lithium Channel and I listen to nineties 408 00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:58,760 Speaker 1: on nine on satellite radio. Those are the two stages. 409 00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:01,560 Speaker 1: You both celebrate the music and culture of the nineties. 410 00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:04,080 Speaker 1: That yeah, because consider only a few years apart in age, 411 00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:06,879 Speaker 1: that makes sense. I mean yeah. I did play recently 412 00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:10,640 Speaker 1: for a friend of mine, some of the Dave Matthews band, 413 00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:13,520 Speaker 1: for example, and the friend of mine said what is that? 414 00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:16,080 Speaker 1: And to that, I said, oh, wow, how old's your friend? 415 00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:20,200 Speaker 1: She's late twenties. Oh this is what happened, sea Buck. 416 00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:22,840 Speaker 1: You know you have aged out at dating girls that 417 00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:27,200 Speaker 1: have similar interest The Dave Matthews band is a I 418 00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:29,439 Speaker 1: get it well known if you if you get her 419 00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:32,040 Speaker 1: in high school or college in the nineties, you know 420 00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:33,959 Speaker 1: you were well aware of this. Is like, I've been 421 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:36,040 Speaker 1: married for a long time, so I haven't had to 422 00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:39,280 Speaker 1: continue to date girls had to.

A lot of the 435 00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:15,280 Speaker 1: young PA's who work production assistants, who work on television shows, 436 00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:18,320 Speaker 1: they're straight out of college. And I had as probably 437 00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:21,280 Speaker 1: twenty two or twenty three, straight out of college, driving 438 00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:24,680 Speaker 1: me from our show back to another place. Where we 439 00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:27,080 Speaker 1: were doing taping, and we drove by and I was like, hey, 440 00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:30,119 Speaker 1: I know you just got to La. That's the Nakatomie Towers. 441 00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:32,800 Speaker 1: And she's like, why would I care about the Nacatomi Towers? 442 00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:35,080 Speaker 1: And I was like, well, you know, die Hard.

And I 444 00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:39,879 Speaker 1: was like, I can't even have a normal conversation with 445 00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:43,399 Speaker 1: you if you are you've never seen die Hard. I 446 00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:46,520 Speaker 1: think also argue that Hans Gruber maybe among the greatest 447 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:51,280 Speaker 1: villain action action movie villains of all time, played by 448 00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:53,359 Speaker 1: the guy who went on to be Professor Snape. For 449 00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:55,359 Speaker 1: those of you who are being Harry Potter fans or 450 00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:58,440 Speaker 1: the girls that you're dating, Alan Rickman actually died. He 451 00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:01,040 Speaker 1: actually died a few years ago. But we were going 452 00:25:01,080 --> 00:25:03,240 Speaker 1: to dodge the fact that you have to now explain 453 00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:05,520 Speaker 1: who Alan Rickman is to the girls that you're dating 454 00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:09,320 Speaker 1: by saying he was Snape in Harry Potter as opposed 455 00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:12,320 Speaker 1: to the bad guy and die HARDY can neither confirm 456 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:15,119 Speaker 1: nor deny any of this information and not sure that 457 00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:17,800 Speaker 1: you were read into this compartment of this program, sir, 458 00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:20,479 Speaker 1: all right, So this is why I was gonna tea. 459 00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:22,960 Speaker 1: We got into this because of the Nicki Minaj. This 460 00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:26,080 Speaker 1: is actually a funny COVID story. So Nicki Minaj and 461 00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:29,440 Speaker 1: I'm not making this up. This this singer, she tweeted 462 00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:35,720 Speaker 1: that her cousin's friend had gotten swollen testicles because of 463 00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:39,919 Speaker 1: the h because of the COVID vaccine, and this thing 464 00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:44,159 Speaker 1: went viral, massive discussion. Everybody's angry at Nicki Nicki Minaj, 465 00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:49,200 Speaker 1: including doctor Fauci, who still, by the way, hasn't responded 466 00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:52,920 Speaker 1: to our invite to the program, but of course he 467 00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:57,120 Speaker 1: was on CNN, and this is an exasperated doctor Anthony 468 00:25:57,160 --> 00:26:01,680 Speaker 1: Fauci talking about Nicki Minaj's cousin's friend swollen testicles as 469 00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:07,520 Speaker 1: it pertains to the COVID vaccine. Enjoy well, Enjoy, I 470 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:11,640 Speaker 1: think we got it. We have enjoy. It's cut thirteen. 471 00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:13,920 Speaker 1: There we go. That was quite a leading answer to 472 00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:18,480 Speaker 1: that is a resounding no. There's no evidence that it happens, 473 00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:21,920 Speaker 1: nor is there any mechanistic reason to imagine that it 474 00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:25,320 Speaker 1: would happen. So the answer to your question is no. 475 00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:29,440 Speaker 1: These kinds of claims, which you know, may be you know, 476 00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:32,399 Speaker 1: innocent on her part. I'm not, you know, blaming her 477 00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:36,400 Speaker 1: for anything, but she should be thinking twice about propagating 478 00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:40,440 Speaker 1: information that really has no basis as accept a one 479 00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:43,679 Speaker 1: off anecdote, and that's not what science is all about. 480 00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:49,560 Speaker 1: Can either confirm nor deny allegations of a swollen testicular 481 00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:54,160 Speaker 1: nature based on the data and all we'll say here 482 00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:58,360 Speaker 1: Mickey Manaj versus doctor Faucci. I think Mickey Manaj interviewed, 483 00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:01,119 Speaker 1: did she intervit interviewed Joe? I didn't. I think she 484 00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:03,400 Speaker 1: has just just to be clear for everybody here, Clay, 485 00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:05,560 Speaker 1: you know, you tweet a lot, right, I tweet a 486 00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:08,000 Speaker 1: fair amount. You tweet more often than I do. Nicki 487 00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:12,680 Speaker 1: Minaj has almost twenty three million Twitter followers. Yeah, that's 488 00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:15,480 Speaker 1: pretty fair. So when she puts out the the swollen 489 00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:19,800 Speaker 1: man area anecdotal story, it actually does get a fair 490 00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:21,639 Speaker 1: amount of traction. And didn't she also say there was 491 00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:24,440 Speaker 1: a fertility issue for the guy, right? Maybe? Yeah, it's 492 00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:32,400 Speaker 1: implied by the h you know themore Yeah, yeah, exactly issue. Look, 493 00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:35,000 Speaker 1: I also think it's fascinating how if you and this 494 00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:37,360 Speaker 1: is a this is a real dichotomy that exists if 495 00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:40,040 Speaker 1: you are associated with the right, which I think it's 496 00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:42,960 Speaker 1: fair to say Nicki Minaj is not, although she was. 497 00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:45,720 Speaker 1: As she was raising a question, she didn't say don't 498 00:27:45,760 --> 00:27:48,280 Speaker 1: get the shot. She just said asking, you know, if 499 00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:50,840 Speaker 1: figure it out, you know to do it. And remember, 500 00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:52,560 Speaker 1: you know, there are a lot of people that want 501 00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:54,480 Speaker 1: to ask questions about this and never get answers, and 502 00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:56,880 Speaker 1: they're just told shut up and do it. But but Clay, 503 00:27:57,119 --> 00:28:00,280 Speaker 1: if you are a Trump supporter or associated with the 504 00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:03,720 Speaker 1: right in any way, your hesitancy to get the shot 505 00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:07,639 Speaker 1: is reckless and you're killing people. If you are a 506 00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:12,000 Speaker 1: Democrat favored constituency of some kind or associated with a 507 00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:16,000 Speaker 1: Democrat party, it's always more. Oh, but you have real 508 00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:20,320 Speaker 1: reasons for concern or not trusting the government, or this 509 00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:23,280 Speaker 1: was the Trump vaccine and it's his fault or whatever. 510 00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:26,960 Speaker 1: They change the blame depending on what your politics are, 511 00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:30,600 Speaker 1: because that's how much this has become politicized. Oh, there's 512 00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:33,240 Speaker 1: no doubt. No. Yeah, But I do love the idea 513 00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:35,720 Speaker 1: of Fauci going head to head with Nicki Minaj in 514 00:28:35,840 --> 00:28:40,280 Speaker 1: a battle over testicular fortitude relating to the COVID vaccine. 515 00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:41,680 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm just wondering if we could ever get 516 00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:43,960 Speaker 1: him to come on this show. Though, Clay, we could 517 00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:46,680 Speaker 1: do you could do the interview with doctor Fauci right now, 518 00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:48,240 Speaker 1: you ask me a question. It would just you know, 519 00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:52,000 Speaker 1: I am science, I am data. I look at the 520 00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:54,920 Speaker 1: science and the data. You just bore you to tears 521 00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:58,520 Speaker 1: at CNN, he's like he's like a psychological safety blanket 522 00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:00,800 Speaker 1: for people that watch him at msn BC and CNN. 523 00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:03,400 Speaker 1: They just think he's like the old, you know, krusty 524 00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:06,440 Speaker 1: doctor who's you know, you'll maybe you'll die, maybe you'll live. 525 00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:08,920 Speaker 1: I don't know, we'll see, you know. They think that 526 00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:11,400 Speaker 1: he's fantastic. But the twenty year olds think of your 527 00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:13,800 Speaker 1: Fauci impersonation. By the way, who know what thinks of what? 528 00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:17,360 Speaker 1: What are the twenty year olds? Twenty year olds? They're 529 00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:18,920 Speaker 1: thirty year roy. I got a lot of friends of 530 00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:21,320 Speaker 1: a lot of you know a lot of friends, Clay, 531 00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:25,040 Speaker 1: mister Travis, sir, all right, we got a lot of 532 00:29:25,080 --> 00:29:28,480 Speaker 1: listeners in Texas of all ages, including Haven.

Feel the difference This president, 551 00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:35,280 Speaker 1: this current president, who follows the constitution, who's not famenting 552 00:30:35,320 --> 00:30:38,640 Speaker 1: an insurrection, who follows the rule of law, has complete 553 00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:42,200 Speaker 1: confidence in Chairman Millie and him serving continuing to serve 554 00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:45,719 Speaker 1: in his role, and even as Republicans may criticize him 555 00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:49,640 Speaker 1: and have questions about his suitability to continue. Would that 556 00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:53,400 Speaker 1: be a factor that President fid would consider separate from 557 00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:57,239 Speaker 1: his judgments about how he's conducted himself. I don't think 558 00:30:57,280 --> 00:30:59,760 Speaker 1: the president is looking for the guidance of members of 559 00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:03,600 Speaker 1: Congress who stood by. Well, they're the president of their 560 00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:05,960 Speaker 1: the president of the United States, and the leader of 561 00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:09,720 Speaker 1: their party fermented an insurrection, and many of them were silent. Oh, 562 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:14,040 Speaker 1: the insurrection it's the answer for everything, isn't it. Oh, 563 00:31:14,120 --> 00:31:16,040 Speaker 1: you had a general who was subverting a chain of 564 00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:19,640 Speaker 1: command and telling the Chinese military that he give them 565 00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:21,760 Speaker 1: a heads up before the attack that no one actually 566 00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:25,320 Speaker 1: thought was coming. Whatever, He's not the insurrectionist, I mean, 567 00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:30,200 Speaker 1: is General Millie Kwannon Shaman? I think not. Therefore he 568 00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:33,040 Speaker 1: should suffer no consequences. That's basically what you get from 569 00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:35,480 Speaker 1: Jenn Saki. Welcome back to Clay and Buck Show. And 570 00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:38,520 Speaker 1: you know Jen Saki. For me, sometimes it starts to 571 00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:42,440 Speaker 1: sound a bit like is it the mom in Charlie Brown? 572 00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:46,160 Speaker 1: That's like, Wow, I know what she's gonna say before 573 00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:50,280 Speaker 1: she says it. It's all very it's all very predictable. 574 00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:54,959 Speaker 1: And here exactly the same thing. Notice every time democrats 575 00:31:55,040 --> 00:31:58,000 Speaker 1: get cornered on one of their own or someone on 576 00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:01,520 Speaker 1: their side, the movie is going to be but Trump 577 00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:05,840 Speaker 1: or but the insurrection, and that will not change over 578 00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:07,880 Speaker 1: the next couple of years. I mean, unless something else 579 00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:11,360 Speaker 1: crazy happens, but those will always be Look, I think Clay, 580 00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:16,600 Speaker 1: I think that but Trump might have been a major 581 00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:20,080 Speaker 1: factor in Gavin Newsom not only keeping his job but 582 00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:23,360 Speaker 1: keeping it by a pretty clear margin. Yeah. I don't 583 00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:28,480 Speaker 1: think there's any doubt that the Republican Party, the Democrats believe, 584 00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:32,400 Speaker 1: is unable to win with Donald Trump. There's obviously many 585 00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:34,959 Speaker 1: people in the Republican Party who disagree, many people who 586 00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:37,959 Speaker 1: are listening to us right now. Gets the base fired up, right, 587 00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:40,320 Speaker 1: it gets the Democrat base fired up. But the Democratic 588 00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:44,000 Speaker 1: base believes that Trump is Satan. And that's why whether 589 00:32:44,040 --> 00:32:48,760 Speaker 1: it's General Millie, whether it is it really doesn't matter 590 00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:52,120 Speaker 1: who the person is. As long as you are anti Trump. 591 00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:55,320 Speaker 1: It's effectively a get out of jail free card. And 592 00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:59,000 Speaker 1: I don't think it's coincidental that the conversation on General 593 00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:03,480 Speaker 1: million is in common pudence has totally vanished surrounding Afghanistan. Remember, 594 00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:06,160 Speaker 1: wasn't too long ago Jensaki was getting questions does anybody 595 00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:08,720 Speaker 1: gonna resign? Are there going to be any consequences for 596 00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:12,880 Speaker 1: the abject failure that came out of Afghanistan. And now 597 00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:16,920 Speaker 1: Millie suddenly has all these bona fides because he stood 598 00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:19,800 Speaker 1: up to Donald Trump, even if he was subverting the 599 00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:23,240 Speaker 1: station of command, the constitution, everything else. Is it amazing 600 00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:25,040 Speaker 1: when you look at what the what the standard is 601 00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:29,680 Speaker 1: under the Biden administration. Giveaway Bagram Air Base, don't resign, 602 00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:34,120 Speaker 1: leave Americans behind in cobble at the at the mercy 603 00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:38,280 Speaker 1: of the Taliban, Leave you know, Afghan SIV holders behind. 604 00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:42,880 Speaker 1: Don't resign buildings of dollars in material sen send senior 605 00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:46,360 Speaker 1: citizens into nursing homes to die by the thousands that 606 00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:49,360 Speaker 1: likely would not have otherwise because of COVID positivity, because 607 00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:53,680 Speaker 1: of a terrible executive order. Don't resign say some things 608 00:33:53,800 --> 00:33:58,800 Speaker 1: to women that makes them uncomfortable in the workplace. Oh 609 00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:02,200 Speaker 1: you're gone? Is the Democrat Party of I mean, obviously 610 00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:05,320 Speaker 1: you're referring to Cuomo here, unless you're Joe Biden, and 611 00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:08,319 Speaker 1: then it's like, oh, it never happened, aka terror Reid. 612 00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:14,759 Speaker 1: I mean, it really is amazing the sort of crazy 613 00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:19,480 Speaker 1: limbo that Democrats have to apply to put standards in 614 00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:23,319 Speaker 1: place that somehow protect all of their people as long 615 00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:25,560 Speaker 1: as they're valuable. Right, If Cuomo was still valuable, he 616 00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:28,920 Speaker 1: wouldn't have gotten crossed out for sexual harassment. Right. They 617 00:34:29,040 --> 00:34:31,160 Speaker 1: just cast him off the boat because they're like, this 618 00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:35,040 Speaker 1: guy's deadweight, let's get rid of him. And if they 619 00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:37,760 Speaker 1: were actually needing him, if he was running for president, 620 00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:42,760 Speaker 1: this story would have vanished. And yet we see the standard, right, massive, 621 00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:46,960 Speaker 1: massive blunder that actually affects the American people and has 622 00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:50,759 Speaker 1: consequences that everybody can see and understand that. You're fine 623 00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:53,200 Speaker 1: as long as the Democrats still need you. But you 624 00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:58,200 Speaker 1: offend the wokeness gods, and you may find yourself getting 625 00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:01,440 Speaker 1: a resignation. No one I think involved in the Afghanistan 626 00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:04,840 Speaker 1: boaccle is going to resign. Let's get to Kathy in Connecticut. 627 00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:06,279 Speaker 1: You's got an interesting point you wanted to make. I'm 628 00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:09,319 Speaker 1: wanting to get her in here, Kathy, welcome, Hi guys. 629 00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:14,640 Speaker 1: I always remember the Democrats accuse Republicans every day of 630 00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:18,360 Speaker 1: what day the Democrats are guilty of. Yes, it's amazing. 631 00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:21,960 Speaker 1: Worried about Trump being crazy? Joe Biden, we know he's 632 00:35:22,040 --> 00:35:27,120 Speaker 1: compromised by China. He's the one that might have Alzheimers. 633 00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:30,520 Speaker 1: He had two brain aneurysms. See, they blamed Trump to 634 00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:35,080 Speaker 1: cover up for Biden, and there must be a special 635 00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:40,320 Speaker 1: counsel or a special prosecutor to investigate Biden and Millie. 636 00:35:40,640 --> 00:35:43,000 Speaker 1: You know, Kathy, it's a great point. They thank you 637 00:35:43,040 --> 00:35:45,840 Speaker 1: so much, Kathy about the special counsel. By the way, Clay, 638 00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:53,520 Speaker 1: notice Trump administration, Mueller's special counsel, Bush administration, Valerie Plame, 639 00:35:53,760 --> 00:35:58,600 Speaker 1: Scooter Libby, you know, special counsel. They weaponize that statute. 640 00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:01,040 Speaker 1: Where are our special count Oh we don't have them 641 00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:03,000 Speaker 1: for the last twenty years. That Isn't that a shock? 642 00:36:03,280 --> 00:36:05,799 Speaker 1: It's almost like we play all nicey nice, and they 643 00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:09,040 Speaker 1: play with a two by four to our face. Anyway, 644 00:36:09,080 --> 00:36:11,439 Speaker 1: we got Rand Paul joined us here in a second, Clay, 645 00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:13,800 Speaker 1: what are you excited to talk to him about? Two things? 646 00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:18,080 Speaker 1: One gain of function and his continued hammering of doctor 647 00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:23,000 Speaker 1: Fauci over that, and then amazing questioning yesterday of Secretary 648 00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:26,440 Speaker 1: of State Anthony B. Lincoln over this drone attack that 649 00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:28,760 Speaker 1: appears to have killed an Ncent man and seven kids. 650 00:36:29,760 --> 00:36:33,399 Speaker 1: Pretty significant stories there. I think we're gonna hammer Rand 651 00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:36,160 Speaker 1: Paul for both of those and give him applause for 652 00:36:36,280 --> 00:36:38,120 Speaker 1: handling those as well as he did. Senator Paul from 653 00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:42,839 Speaker 1: Kentucky coming up in a few minutes.
