1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:05,280 Speaker 1: Kamala Harris finally doing interviews. Now, you might say, what's 2 00:00:05,320 --> 00:00:07,760 Speaker 1: the big deal? Why does that really matter? Well, because 3 00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:11,400 Speaker 1: it is quite clear that the strategy of this campaign 4 00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:16,599 Speaker 1: for the first what seven or eight weeks I guess, 5 00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:18,759 Speaker 1: I mean depending on when when did she effish. 6 00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:20,959 Speaker 2: All, I would say she all the way up to 7 00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:23,759 Speaker 2: the debate buck she basically talked to no one, and 8 00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:26,159 Speaker 2: even after the debate, she didn't do much. This is 9 00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:28,280 Speaker 2: this week is going to be more active for her 10 00:00:28,360 --> 00:00:31,040 Speaker 2: for interviews than any week since she ascended to the 11 00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:35,000 Speaker 2: nomination in July twenty. First, there's no world in which 12 00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:39,239 Speaker 2: you change that strategy so suddenly, so late in the 13 00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:41,880 Speaker 2: game unless it's not working, and their internals are showing 14 00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:44,720 Speaker 2: that it's not working. And I want to remind everyone 15 00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:52,199 Speaker 2: it is really just unseemly and also quite condescending to 16 00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:54,840 Speaker 2: hide a presidential candidate for the American people and just 17 00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:57,920 Speaker 2: hope that the media can do her dirty work for her. 18 00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:01,080 Speaker 1: That was the strategy. That's what they were planning to do. 19 00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:03,160 Speaker 1: It's not working, so they're changing it up. So let's 20 00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:07,240 Speaker 1: let's take some time here to delve into hmm, why 21 00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:09,360 Speaker 1: was that her strategy in the first place, why do 22 00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:13,200 Speaker 1: the people around Kamala who make a living trying to 23 00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:16,120 Speaker 1: get people to win elections, why were they like, you know, 24 00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:18,080 Speaker 1: let's just leave out the interviews. Let's start with this. 25 00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:21,240 Speaker 1: Kamala is talking about taxes. This is going to be fun. 26 00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:23,360 Speaker 1: This is caught eight. She was on sixty minutes with 27 00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:28,360 Speaker 1: Bill Whittaker. And you know what, just listen, listen in listen, 28 00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:30,840 Speaker 1: in close. Kamala's making it all make sense. 29 00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:35,880 Speaker 3: My plan is about saying that when you invest in 30 00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:39,600 Speaker 3: small businesses, you invest in the middle class, and you 31 00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:43,320 Speaker 3: strengthen America's economy. Small businesses are part of the backbone 32 00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:44,520 Speaker 3: of America's economy. 33 00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:48,640 Speaker 4: But pardoning that advice President, the question was, how are 34 00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:49,880 Speaker 4: you going to pay for it? 35 00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:51,960 Speaker 3: Well, one of the things is that I'm going to 36 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:55,360 Speaker 3: make sure that the richest among us who can afford it, 37 00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 3: pay their fair share in taxes. It is not right 38 00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:04,400 Speaker 3: that teachers and nurses and firefighters are paying a higher 39 00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:08,280 Speaker 3: tax rate than billionaires and the biggest corporations. And I 40 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 3: plan on making that fair. 41 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:12,760 Speaker 1: But we're dealing with the real world here. 42 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:14,720 Speaker 3: But the real world includes how are you going to 43 00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:18,560 Speaker 3: get this to Congress? You know, when you talk quietly 44 00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:20,880 Speaker 3: with a lot of folks in Congress. They know exactly 45 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:24,040 Speaker 3: what I'm talking about because their constituents though exactly what 46 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:29,080 Speaker 3: I'm talking about. Their constituents are those firefighters and teachers 47 00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:30,120 Speaker 3: and nurses. 48 00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 1: Oh my, he is a parody of political rhetoric. I 49 00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:37,840 Speaker 1: mean everything that she says, every statement she makes in 50 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 1: responds to questions about decisions. What are you going to do? 51 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:46,760 Speaker 1: It's you know, there's great things in America and economy, 52 00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 1: middle class, fair. None of this adds up to anything. 53 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:55,600 Speaker 1: And this is why she wasn't doing interviews before. 54 00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:59,119 Speaker 2: Also, I'm so sick of some arguments that are made 55 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:04,880 Speaker 2: that are just h fundamentally dishonest. Firefighters and nurses and 56 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:09,400 Speaker 2: teachers don't pay a higher tax rate than billionaires. That 57 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:12,679 Speaker 2: is a lie. And let me explain why. First of all, fuck, 58 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:16,000 Speaker 2: do you know the number? Only half of Americans even 59 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:20,680 Speaker 2: pay federal income taxes. So we're talking about immediately, nobody 60 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:23,960 Speaker 2: here ever talks about this. Over half the number is 61 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:29,200 Speaker 2: now of Americans never pay a dollar in income taxes. Now, 62 00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:32,959 Speaker 2: so security taxes if you have a job, sales taxes, 63 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:35,320 Speaker 2: those things are paid. But we're talking about income taxes 64 00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:38,120 Speaker 2: which is what she's talking about here, So immediately you 65 00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 2: can take half of the entire United States population off 66 00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:44,160 Speaker 2: the board. When it comes to income taxes, what she 67 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:48,440 Speaker 2: is saying and trying to argue here is billionaires pay 68 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:49,480 Speaker 2: a lower tax rate. 69 00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:52,040 Speaker 1: That's only true if you. 70 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 2: Look at unrealized capital gains, which are not actual dollars 71 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 2: that they have translated into cash. And this is a 72 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 2: radical proposition that has become a major Democrat talking point, 73 00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 2: and there needs to be more pushing back on it because, 74 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 2: and this is important. You might be sitting out there saying, 75 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 2: I'm not a billionaire. I don't care if they talk 76 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:15,440 Speaker 2: about unrealized capital gains. Do you own a home, because 77 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:19,640 Speaker 2: what they're saying is that one day somebody could look 78 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,800 Speaker 2: at your home and they could say, hey, yeah, you 79 00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:26,800 Speaker 2: bought that house forty years ago for one hundred thousand dollars, 80 00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:30,320 Speaker 2: but now it's worth six hundred thousand dollars. You have 81 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:34,120 Speaker 2: an unrealized capital gain on your home of five hundred 82 00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 2: thousand dollars, and we want to tax that because keep 83 00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:41,920 Speaker 2: this in mind, as soon as they establish that unrealized 84 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:46,000 Speaker 2: capital gains are permissible, do you think that's gonna end 85 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 2: taxing it, that is, do you think it's gonna end 86 00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 2: with billionaires? Has anything ever ended with billionaires? 87 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 4: Though? 88 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:56,120 Speaker 2: Once they get Democrats. The proposition that money that you 89 00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:58,280 Speaker 2: haven't realized And for people out there who don't know 90 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:01,040 Speaker 2: what I'm talking about, if you have an asset like 91 00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 2: the house is a good example that you haven't sold, 92 00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:06,800 Speaker 2: but it's worth more than you paid for it, that 93 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:10,480 Speaker 2: is an unrealized capital gains. If you sell that home, 94 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:12,880 Speaker 2: at some point, you would have to pay the tax 95 00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:17,400 Speaker 2: on the dollar amount that you have made. Billionaires oftentimes 96 00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:21,720 Speaker 2: buck cannot sell their shares in their companies because that's 97 00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:24,560 Speaker 2: where most of the wealth of billionaires comes. They found 98 00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:27,920 Speaker 2: a company like Elon Musk, they own a certain percentage 99 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 2: of the company. They can't sell the stock and retain 100 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:34,520 Speaker 2: the ownership. And what they're trying to say is, oh, 101 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:36,599 Speaker 2: you have to pay tax on money that you haven't 102 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:39,800 Speaker 2: actually put in your pocket. That's the argument she's making there. 103 00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 1: You have a higher level of sophistication and knowledge of 104 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:46,039 Speaker 1: the tax code than you know the average people do. 105 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 1: Play maybe I do as well. I mean, these are 106 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:50,919 Speaker 1: things we started to talk and think a lot about. 107 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 1: I bring that up because Notice how with Democrats they'll 108 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:59,159 Speaker 1: talk about fair share, what's fair, They're really just playing 109 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:02,040 Speaker 1: to the politics of envy. They're not going to no 110 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 1: matter what. We have millionaires who listen to this show. 111 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 1: We have people in public housing who listen to this show. Yes, 112 00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:10,440 Speaker 1: and guess what. Democrats aren't going to make the lives 113 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:14,719 Speaker 1: of those who are financially struggling better with these plans 114 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:18,680 Speaker 1: because that they never do. That's always the false promise. 115 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 1: But it appeals to certain people to think that the 116 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:26,480 Speaker 1: reason that they aren't where they should be financially, You 117 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:28,960 Speaker 1: and I have opened guys with no assets and no money. 118 00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:32,640 Speaker 1: The reason that they do this is because it appeals 119 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:34,960 Speaker 1: to the politics of envy. Why do they never talk 120 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,840 Speaker 1: about just making the tax code far simpler than it is. 121 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 1: I mean, it's thousands and thousands of pages long, tens 122 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:43,400 Speaker 1: of thousands. I think when you add you know, the 123 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:46,920 Speaker 1: various you know things, you can sort of tack onto 124 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:49,839 Speaker 1: it into the mix. Why isn't the tax code like 125 00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:50,719 Speaker 1: a page long? 126 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:51,280 Speaker 4: You know? 127 00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 1: Ted Cruz was talking to this actually when he's running 128 00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:56,919 Speaker 1: in twenty sixteen. If they made it really simple and 129 00:06:57,120 --> 00:07:00,360 Speaker 1: everybody could understand the numbers, there would be less room 130 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 1: for social engineering, socialism and political nonsense lying about what's 131 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:10,560 Speaker 1: really going on the one percent in this country. I 132 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:15,520 Speaker 1: think the top one percent pays twenty twenty five. Look 133 00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 1: at that number. It's an insane amount. I mean, so, 134 00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:21,080 Speaker 1: so the top one percent of in terms of income 135 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:24,000 Speaker 1: tax are paying about twenty to twenty five. I think 136 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 1: the top the top fifty percent pay all of the taxes. Okay, 137 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:30,640 Speaker 1: so if you're in the bottom fifty percent of earners, 138 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 1: you're basically paying no income taxes, as you pointed out, 139 00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:36,680 Speaker 1: But also like this is just well, what are they 140 00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:39,119 Speaker 1: really what are they really going to do? They're gonna 141 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:41,000 Speaker 1: give you what They're going to give you more subsidies 142 00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 1: from Obamacare exchange for a healthcare plan that's not very 143 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:47,679 Speaker 1: good that's increasingly looking more like Canada with wait times 144 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:50,000 Speaker 1: and carve outs and not giving you the network you want. 145 00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:52,280 Speaker 1: I mean, what are they really going to do. They're 146 00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:55,480 Speaker 1: going to wipe away you know, gender studies degrees at 147 00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:58,280 Speaker 1: second and third tier colleges. I've wipedway that the debt, 148 00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:00,960 Speaker 1: I mean for gender studies degrees. You know, none of 149 00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:02,520 Speaker 1: this is going to make the lives of the American 150 00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:04,960 Speaker 1: people better. The American people actually just want government to 151 00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:07,679 Speaker 1: get out of the way. What was so amazing about 152 00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 1: Calvin Coolidge. Everyone's like, oh, you got to fix everything. 153 00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:13,040 Speaker 1: Oh the tax rate was too high, there was too 154 00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:16,080 Speaker 1: much regulation, and the government was in the way. He's like, hey, 155 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 1: I've got an idea. Let's let the business of the 156 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 1: American people be business. 157 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:22,680 Speaker 2: It's a great line. I will also point out to 158 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 2: your argument on tax code. Nobody knows what they owe. 159 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:31,920 Speaker 2: Think about the system we have created where the government 160 00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:35,560 Speaker 2: won't tell you what you owe, but will tell you 161 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:38,200 Speaker 2: if you pay something different than what they think that 162 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:41,560 Speaker 2: you owe, they will put you in prison. I mean, 163 00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:44,760 Speaker 2: I'm sorry. Like, you can be a genius and buck 164 00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:48,800 Speaker 2: to your point. The more complicated your tax return gets, 165 00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:52,480 Speaker 2: the more you recognize I could go higher. This is 166 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:56,760 Speaker 2: not an exaggeration. I could go higher. Ten highly skilled 167 00:08:56,800 --> 00:09:02,199 Speaker 2: accountants to handle my twenty twenty four tax return, super smart, 168 00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:06,280 Speaker 2: brilliant guys, and all ten would give me a different 169 00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:10,080 Speaker 2: amount of what taxes I owe. Every single one of them. Now, 170 00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:12,880 Speaker 2: some may be close, some may be far apart. Ten 171 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:19,360 Speaker 2: brilliant accountants. If you have the most skilled, talented, well 172 00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:22,880 Speaker 2: educated accountants in America and you give them a tax 173 00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:24,880 Speaker 2: code like mine and say, hey, just tell me what 174 00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:27,760 Speaker 2: I owe and they all come up with a different number. 175 00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:30,680 Speaker 2: It's a pretty good sign that the tax code is broken. 176 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:33,480 Speaker 2: And I think many of you out there feel it. 177 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:37,800 Speaker 2: And so when I see arguments like Kamala is saying, oh, teachers, firefighters, 178 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:40,800 Speaker 2: and nurses pay a higher rate than Elon Musk, it's 179 00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:44,200 Speaker 2: a lie. And it's a dirty, rotten lie that's designed, 180 00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:48,160 Speaker 2: as you said, Buck, to create economic disunion in this 181 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:54,200 Speaker 2: country and make people envious and anti capitalistic, and designed 182 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:56,640 Speaker 2: to sew discord in the country and make people think 183 00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:58,080 Speaker 2: that they're getting taken advantage of. 184 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 1: And when you really get into this a little bit more, 185 00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:04,560 Speaker 1: what you find is that what matters to people to 186 00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:08,360 Speaker 1: you know, the middle class, which is also what even 187 00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:10,760 Speaker 1: constitutes middle class. There's a lot of debate over this, right, 188 00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:13,880 Speaker 1: you just mean everyday Americans, people who work, or people 189 00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:16,319 Speaker 1: who are homemakers and have an earner in the household 190 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:19,240 Speaker 1: that you know, just just everyday Americans. You know, what 191 00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:21,560 Speaker 1: makes their life harder, what makes it harder for them 192 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:24,960 Speaker 1: to pay their bills? Inflation, you know, it creates inflation 193 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:28,600 Speaker 1: excess government spending. This is as and so while she's 194 00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:31,400 Speaker 1: talking about the taxes, she's really just trying to move 195 00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:37,880 Speaker 1: poor government policy onto the shoulders of high earners fellow 196 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:41,800 Speaker 1: Americans who are doing well financially. And again, while I 197 00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:44,640 Speaker 1: understand the politics of envy are very powerful for Democrats, 198 00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:48,120 Speaker 1: and they think with emotion, not with numbers, Clay, the 199 00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:50,000 Speaker 1: best thing that they could do is actually have the 200 00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:53,720 Speaker 1: kind of economy that Donald Trump presided over, in which 201 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:56,480 Speaker 1: unemployment was super low. You see by the way the government, 202 00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 1: I mean, the jobs are just created. A huge portion 203 00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:02,599 Speaker 1: of it is government jobs. Yes, whichever one needs to know. 204 00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:06,040 Speaker 1: These government jobs they're actually non sorry I used to 205 00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 1: have one. They're non productive to the economy. They're effectively 206 00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 1: attacks on all of us. And the government is increasingly 207 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:15,640 Speaker 1: just a jobs program for people who might have trouble 208 00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:17,640 Speaker 1: getting jobs somewhere else. There's a lot of important work 209 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:20,720 Speaker 1: done in government, not saying everybody, but the expansion of 210 00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:24,199 Speaker 1: government is proceeding at a pace where this is now 211 00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:28,000 Speaker 1: burdensome on the American people. But this is the kind 212 00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 1: of stuff that if you pay attention, you look at 213 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:32,240 Speaker 1: what's happening in the economy, you'd understand, Kamala Harris has 214 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:34,480 Speaker 1: no idea. She has no idea she lives in a 215 00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 1: six million dollar mansion in Brentwood because her husban's a 216 00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 1: rich lawyer like she doesn't is she's not in the struggle. 217 00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 1: When do you think the last time was that Kamala 218 00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:44,600 Speaker 1: Harris has had to worry Clay about, you know, the 219 00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 1: rent check bouncing before she started sleeping with Willie Brown. Honestly, 220 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:53,079 Speaker 1: once he gave her, once he gave her four hundred 221 00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:57,200 Speaker 1: thousand dollars in state jobs, She's never had to worry 222 00:11:57,200 --> 00:11:58,960 Speaker 1: about paying for what she needs for the rest of 223 00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 1: her life. That's the truth. 224 00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:02,079 Speaker 2: Thanks she was twenty nine and he gave her four 225 00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:05,520 Speaker 2: hundred k, which you think about thirty years ago. Four 226 00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 2: hundred k is a lot of money. Now think about 227 00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:10,439 Speaker 2: how much money four hundred k was in like nineteen nineties, 228 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:13,720 Speaker 2: late eighties, when Kamala Harris was getting paid by the 229 00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:16,080 Speaker 2: guy she was sleeping with a lot of money. Chendon 230 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:19,040 Speaker 2: had to worry. Since then, she's only worked in government 231 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:20,000 Speaker 2: her entire life. 232 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 1: Wasn't that long ago. 233 00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:24,559 Speaker 2: Seventy five percent of Americans had their Social Security numbers 234 00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:29,319 Speaker 2: exposed during several recent data breaches, defending yourself from a 235 00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:32,120 Speaker 2: stolen identity and the financial losses that come with it, 236 00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:35,040 Speaker 2: not to mention the heartache best done with lifelocks help 237 00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:37,600 Speaker 2: your first step signing up with them today.

Yes, it looks like the impeachables are gonna 276 00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 6: fall to three and two as well. 277 00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:48,680 Speaker 1: Not good, not good. 278 00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:51,120 Speaker 2: I'm in a tough spot in my fantasy league as well. 279 00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:54,080 Speaker 2: I needa some miracles to fight and I'm gonna fall 280 00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:56,320 Speaker 2: to three and two also. But let me get okay, 281 00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:59,200 Speaker 2: that is out there. Sorry for all the Steelers fans 282 00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:02,120 Speaker 2: out there, I had to hear about that. But let's 283 00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:05,760 Speaker 2: go to the rally itself. I believe you spoke there. 284 00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:10,120 Speaker 2: What was the what was the environment like, What did 285 00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:13,080 Speaker 2: it feel like? Take us for those of us who 286 00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:15,640 Speaker 2: were not there, which the vast majority of listeners into 287 00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:17,000 Speaker 2: that experience. 288 00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 6: Well, I have to say it was. It was crazy 289 00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:24,960 Speaker 6: and it was surreal to be back there. I did 290 00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:27,720 Speaker 6: a walk through the night before, and I'll tell you 291 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:30,680 Speaker 6: and for all the listeners, the setup was a little 292 00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:36,760 Speaker 6: bit different. But President Trump was absolutely insistent on that 293 00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:41,560 Speaker 6: stage being in the exact same location. And I think 294 00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:44,280 Speaker 6: that's because he wanted to send a message to the 295 00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 6: people of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania that were not finished yet. 296 00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:50,920 Speaker 6: He wanted to make good on his commitment to them. 297 00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:55,360 Speaker 6: But he also wanted to send a message to our enemies, 298 00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 6: you know, both here and abroad, that as Americans, we 299 00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:02,640 Speaker 6: don't bend the need to fear. We don't bend the 300 00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:05,680 Speaker 6: need of tyranny, and come hell or high water, President 301 00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:08,240 Speaker 6: Trump was standing on that stage and finishing what he started, 302 00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:10,240 Speaker 6: and I have to say I have a ton of 303 00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:13,000 Speaker 6: respect for that man for doing it, because you know, 304 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:15,160 Speaker 6: I wasn't crazy, and I know my wife wasn't crazy 305 00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:16,920 Speaker 6: about going back to that place, but we felt like 306 00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:18,560 Speaker 6: we had to go back there because we had a 307 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:21,240 Speaker 6: duty to go there, and President Trump clearly felt the 308 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:21,760 Speaker 6: same way. 309 00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:29,000 Speaker 1: Sewn.

You know, 323 00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:09,720 Speaker 6: I'm sitting there in the crowd and I hear, you know, 324 00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:13,119 Speaker 6: God Bless the USA, right the Trump the song that 325 00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:16,920 Speaker 6: Lee Greenwood song that Trump walks out to, and I'm thinking, dang, 326 00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:20,600 Speaker 6: this sounds really good.

He's saluting Trump, 328 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:26,560 Speaker 6: and I'm like, dang, this guy knows how to entertain. 329 00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:30,720 Speaker 6: And of course, much of what Trump talked about, especially 330 00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:33,240 Speaker 6: in the early phases of his speech, was Corey Coppertore's 331 00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:37,560 Speaker 6: family and the other folks in the Commonwealth Pennsylvania who 332 00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:40,680 Speaker 6: were wounded, and He's got this opera singer coming out 333 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:42,640 Speaker 6: and everything else. And then there was a woman at 334 00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:44,840 Speaker 6: one point Buck and Clay up in the stands who 335 00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:47,879 Speaker 6: had a medical emergency. President Trump stopped his speech in 336 00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:51,040 Speaker 6: the middle of that, and then one hundred thousand people 337 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:54,240 Speaker 6: spur of the moment started singing the Star Spangled Banner. 338 00:17:55,359 --> 00:17:59,800 Speaker 6: It was just it was just an unbelievably powerful moment 339 00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:03,320 Speaker 6: and a powerful night on so many levels, and again 340 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:06,959 Speaker 6: not just a testament to President Trump's toughness, but a 341 00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:09,280 Speaker 6: testament to the character of the people of Commonwealth of 342 00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:12,520 Speaker 6: Pennsylvania who also wanted to show up that day to 343 00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:15,399 Speaker 6: send a message that we're not afraid and you know, 344 00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:18,560 Speaker 6: we're gonna be heard. And it was just I have 345 00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:20,439 Speaker 6: to tell you both, it was amazing to be on 346 00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:23,159 Speaker 6: that stage and look out over what was definitely one 347 00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:26,439 Speaker 6: hundred thousand people and like, look, I was on stage 348 00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:28,920 Speaker 6: with President Trump five days before the November twenty twenty 349 00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:31,560 Speaker 6: election in Butler County almost at the same location, sixty 350 00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:35,760 Speaker 6: five thousand people there. This was different. There was something 351 00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:38,919 Speaker 6: in the air that was special, and it just leads 352 00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:42,040 Speaker 6: me to feel real, real good about the Commonwealth of 353 00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:43,879 Speaker 6: Pennsylvania in this election cycle. 354 00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:47,760 Speaker 2: Okay, let's dive into that, because you know Pennsylvania really well. 355 00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:49,960 Speaker 2: We're talking to Sean Parnell. Encourage you to listen to 356 00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 2: his podcast as part of the Clay and Buck podcast 357 00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:57,000 Speaker 2: and Network twenty sixteen, it was an earthquake that Trump 358 00:18:57,080 --> 00:19:01,399 Speaker 2: won Pennsylvania. In the political class t twenty, they pulled 359 00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:04,400 Speaker 2: out all the stops to try to find a way 360 00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:08,440 Speaker 2: to win it back, the absentee ballot request were through 361 00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:12,119 Speaker 2: the roof. In terms of data, what I have seen, Sean, 362 00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:15,479 Speaker 2: is that the enthusiasm for Democrats when it comes to 363 00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:20,200 Speaker 2: absentee ballot request nowhere near what it was in twenty twenty. 364 00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:22,840 Speaker 2: And for people out there who say, well, there's not 365 00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:24,800 Speaker 2: a COVID going on, people are going to vote in 366 00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:30,439 Speaker 2: person more Republicans have actually had similar numbers when it 367 00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:33,760 Speaker 2: comes to absentee ballot requests in both twenty twenty and 368 00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:38,720 Speaker 2: twenty twenty four. So that would cut against that argument. 369 00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:42,040 Speaker 2: What are you seeing on the ground, what do you feel, 370 00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:45,320 Speaker 2: and what from a data perspective does the math look 371 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:46,040 Speaker 2: like to you? 372 00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:47,600 Speaker 4: Yeah? 373 00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:50,080 Speaker 6: Okay, So first of all, I've said here on this 374 00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:54,639 Speaker 6: show before that Pennsylvania's a state that closes late and 375 00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:58,120 Speaker 6: closes fast, and now you're seeing that play out. Well, 376 00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:01,040 Speaker 6: so what does that really mean? Well, well, Democrats can 377 00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:04,320 Speaker 6: win this state without a single Republican vote. Now we've 378 00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:07,919 Speaker 6: closed the voter registration deficit in Pennsylvania by over fifty percent, 379 00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:10,440 Speaker 6: six hundred and fifty thousand plus more Democrats in twenty 380 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:13,080 Speaker 6: twenty than there were Republicans. That number is now three 381 00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:15,800 Speaker 6: hundred and twenty five thousand more Democrats than Republicans. Still 382 00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:19,160 Speaker 6: a big number, right, But the point is is that 383 00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:23,480 Speaker 6: we are we are. In order for Republicans to win 384 00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:26,760 Speaker 6: this state, you've got to win moderate Democrats, and you've 385 00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:30,480 Speaker 6: got to sway independence. Every single poll that I've seen, 386 00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:33,359 Speaker 6: not just with between Trump and Harris and Pennsylvania, but 387 00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:37,640 Speaker 6: especially between McCormick and Casey, has shown probably two months ago, 388 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:42,600 Speaker 6: McCormick down anywhere between seven and ten points in Pennsylvania. 389 00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:45,199 Speaker 6: Will now in almost every single poll they're tied. And 390 00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:51,639 Speaker 6: that tells me that moderate Democrats and independents are breaking Republicans. 391 00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:54,119 Speaker 6: So the state is closing lateness, closing fast as it 392 00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:56,920 Speaker 6: typically does. Another thing that I need people to pay 393 00:20:56,920 --> 00:20:59,959 Speaker 6: attention to is look at the counties of Eerie, penncilv 394 00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:03,440 Speaker 6: which is in the northwest of Pennsylvania, in Northampton, which 395 00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:05,760 Speaker 6: is in the northeast of Pennsylvania. Those are two blue 396 00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:10,080 Speaker 6: collar Union Democrat counties. They are the bell Weathers of 397 00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:13,399 Speaker 6: the state of Pennsylvania. And President Trump is up in 398 00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:17,720 Speaker 6: these two bell Weather counties on not just the top 399 00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:20,959 Speaker 6: line polling, but on all of the issues. From the border, 400 00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:23,760 Speaker 6: He's up fifteen on inflation, he's up seven. On the 401 00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:27,200 Speaker 6: economy in general, he's up six. So issue after issue 402 00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:30,280 Speaker 6: after issue in these blue collar union Democrat counties are 403 00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:33,399 Speaker 6: breaking Trump. And again you see that play out in 404 00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:36,480 Speaker 6: the polls as well, Clay as well, Buck with Kamala 405 00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:41,720 Speaker 6: just is suffering. She is hemorrhaging men right. And I 406 00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:44,119 Speaker 6: cannot see for the life of me a blue collar 407 00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:46,840 Speaker 6: union Democrat, somebody who's worked with their hands their entire 408 00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:49,600 Speaker 6: life in either of those counties saying yeah, I'm gonna 409 00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:53,000 Speaker 6: vote for Kamala Harris. It's just not gonna happen. And 410 00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:55,879 Speaker 6: last point I'll make about the data. You look at 411 00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:59,119 Speaker 6: the current mail in request data Democrats nine hundred and 412 00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:02,320 Speaker 6: forty five thousand and mail in ballot requests Republicans four 413 00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 6: hundred and nineteen thousand, Independence one hundred and sixty one 414 00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:08,600 Speaker 6: hundred and seventy six thousand. Now in twenty twenty, Republicans 415 00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:11,399 Speaker 6: had six hundred and sixty eight thousand requests, five hundred 416 00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:14,879 Speaker 6: and twenty four thousand returns Democrat Democrats one point six 417 00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:18,960 Speaker 6: at one point five million returns. So in twenty twenty 418 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,880 Speaker 6: we lost the vote by mail by nearly one million, 419 00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:25,160 Speaker 6: but we're actually doing a lot better than we were 420 00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:28,280 Speaker 6: in twenty twenty because let's say of those one hundred 421 00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:33,240 Speaker 6: and seventy six thousand independents who have requested a mail 422 00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:36,960 Speaker 6: in ballot, let's say forty percent of them break our way, 423 00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:39,760 Speaker 6: we are going to be well over five hundred thousand 424 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:43,000 Speaker 6: ballots requested in twenty twenty four, which is more than 425 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:46,400 Speaker 6: we had in twenty twenty. And Democrats, by contrast, they 426 00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:50,280 Speaker 6: need that floor of twenty twenty mail in ballots to 427 00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:53,280 Speaker 6: be successful in that state, and they're not there yet. 428 00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:55,199 Speaker 6: And at nine hundred and forty five thousand they got 429 00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:58,560 Speaker 6: to get to one point five million returns. That the 430 00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:01,199 Speaker 6: clock is ticking, guys, and I just don't think that 431 00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:03,040 Speaker 6: there's enough time for them to make it up. 432 00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:09,080 Speaker 1: Sean, What the ground game that Trump has? How is 433 00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:11,320 Speaker 1: it looking? How is it in these final weeks? And 434 00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:13,640 Speaker 1: you know, you're telling you you're giving us a sense 435 00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:16,399 Speaker 1: of what spots in the stage should be highlighted to 436 00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:19,320 Speaker 1: try to bring it across the finish line. But is 437 00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:22,760 Speaker 1: the infrastructure there? The door knocking? The ads on TV? 438 00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:25,080 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, what are you seeing in terms 439 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:25,320 Speaker 1: of that? 440 00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:30,439 Speaker 6: Well, the ads on TV are just the market is 441 00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:33,960 Speaker 6: absolutely saturated. And it's particularly tough to run ads in Pennsylvania, 442 00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:36,240 Speaker 6: running a state wide campaign because there are five different 443 00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:40,440 Speaker 6: media markets, whether it's Philadelphia, scrant and York, Pittsburgh, Eerie, 444 00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:44,840 Speaker 6: unbelievably expensive. But yeah, there's a political ad on TV 445 00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:47,159 Speaker 6: every couple of seconds here. But the ground game for 446 00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:51,440 Speaker 6: President Trump is really, really, really strong. And again, by contrast, 447 00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:53,960 Speaker 6: look at Kamala Harris. You don't get the teams to endorsement, 448 00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:59,320 Speaker 6: you don't get the the endorsement of the National Firefighters Union. Now, yeah, 449 00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:02,440 Speaker 6: that might be a palytical hit optically for Kamala Harris, 450 00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:06,000 Speaker 6: but when they don't endorse, you don't get their infrastructure, 451 00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:07,920 Speaker 6: you don't get their door knocking, you don't get their 452 00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:11,480 Speaker 6: ballot chasing, you don't get union organization. And that's gonna 453 00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:14,160 Speaker 6: hurt her in Pennsylvania. And again you see that in play, 454 00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:15,679 Speaker 6: you see that playing out in the polls. 455 00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:15,960 Speaker 1: Right. 456 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:18,240 Speaker 6: So not only are people inclined to I think, vote 457 00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:21,320 Speaker 6: for Trump because they're they're hurting where it's like on 458 00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:25,439 Speaker 6: kitchen table issues in their pocketbooks, but Kamala is not 459 00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:27,399 Speaker 6: going to have the ground game that Old scrant and 460 00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:30,760 Speaker 6: Joe from Pennsylvania had and you know that's another thing. 461 00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:32,040 Speaker 1: You know, at the top of the ticket. 462 00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:34,720 Speaker 6: You know, most people in Pennsylvania that aren't tethered to 463 00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:37,440 Speaker 6: politics every day are looking at Scranton Joe and saying, hey, 464 00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:39,760 Speaker 6: he's one of us. Old moderate Joe Biden, you know, 465 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:43,480 Speaker 6: works across the aisle. Kamala Harris is not Joe Biden 466 00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:46,639 Speaker 6: in that regard, and so she's got all sorts of 467 00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:49,399 Speaker 6: problems in Pennsylvania. I think it's pretty clear now that 468 00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:52,840 Speaker 6: Kamala has a Pennsylvania problem. But I say all that 469 00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:56,440 Speaker 6: to say, we've got a campaign, like we're ten points down. 470 00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:59,120 Speaker 6: We got to sprint across the finish. I mean, all 471 00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:01,720 Speaker 6: of these things are good, but we're in the execution 472 00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:04,680 Speaker 6: phase of this election operation and we got to close 473 00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:06,359 Speaker 6: the deal. We got to get the ball across the 474 00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:07,080 Speaker 6: goal line. 475 00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:10,560 Speaker 2: Sean, you're making a football analogy there, and this is 476 00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:14,720 Speaker 2: where Buck has said for some time, I automatically trust 477 00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:18,640 Speaker 2: college football fans more, NFL fans more. If you like football, 478 00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:20,040 Speaker 2: I figure out you can't be that bad of a 479 00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:22,399 Speaker 2: guy or gal. I just come back, and I know 480 00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:25,320 Speaker 2: I started with you with the Steelers question. I just 481 00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:27,600 Speaker 2: come back to what I see on the ground. I 482 00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:30,520 Speaker 2: don't know if you saw me post this, but for 483 00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:34,400 Speaker 2: the Georgia Alabama game, the sign said, you know, Georgia 484 00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:38,679 Speaker 2: fans love Kamala, and all the Georgia fans on social 485 00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:42,960 Speaker 2: media said some insults just cut too deep. They had 486 00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:47,520 Speaker 2: a big rally for the College Democrats at the Auburn 487 00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:51,280 Speaker 2: Georgia game on the campus in Athens. Nobody shows up 488 00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:56,720 Speaker 2: regular everyday football fans. You see them in Pennsylvania a lot. 489 00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:59,280 Speaker 2: They're the backbone. I think of much of that blue 490 00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:03,440 Speaker 2: collar mind. They're not showing up and voting for Kamala Harrison. 491 00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:05,560 Speaker 2: And I just think a lot of people are slowly 492 00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:09,160 Speaker 2: realizing it. And then her outreach. I mean, Sean, how 493 00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:12,040 Speaker 2: many Steeler fans do you think listen to call her 494 00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:16,560 Speaker 2: daddy Howard Stern and watch Stephen Colebayer, like, how is she. 495 00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:18,840 Speaker 1: Going to change their mind going to those outlets. 496 00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:20,679 Speaker 4: She's not. 497 00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:23,159 Speaker 6: And you're right if you go to any sort of 498 00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:26,480 Speaker 6: SEC game, you know, Trump shows up at Alabama Georgia 499 00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:28,760 Speaker 6: and the crowd goes wild for him. And I think 500 00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:31,600 Speaker 6: the reason why the crowd goes wild is it people 501 00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:34,639 Speaker 6: that are attending those college football games. They're just normal. 502 00:26:34,680 --> 00:26:37,480 Speaker 6: They're not politicals like us, right, They're just normal people. 503 00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:40,720 Speaker 6: They're really struggling. They look at life three years ago 504 00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:42,960 Speaker 6: and said, hey, life was pretty great. Three years ago 505 00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:46,520 Speaker 6: under Trump it was easier. Life Now it sucks, not 506 00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:49,639 Speaker 6: just here domestically, but the world is on fire. And 507 00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:55,639 Speaker 6: I just you cannot see Kamala Harris or Walls showing 508 00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:58,119 Speaker 6: up at a college football game and getting nothing but 509 00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:00,280 Speaker 6: just NonStop. 510 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:01,840 Speaker 2: There there is It's a great point. There isn't a 511 00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:04,600 Speaker 2: stadium in America where Kamala Harris could show up and 512 00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:07,520 Speaker 2: be cheered like Trump is cheered all over the country 513 00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:08,359 Speaker 2: at football games. 514 00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:09,800 Speaker 1: It just doesn't exist. 515 00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:12,440 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, he's and this is why I say 516 00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:15,119 Speaker 6: he's the most I'm obviously a Trump guy, but this 517 00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:17,480 Speaker 6: is why I say he's the most electrifying political figure 518 00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:20,600 Speaker 6: of my lifetime. And I think there's a political underpinning 519 00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:23,239 Speaker 6: to all of this is that the next generation, these 520 00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:25,800 Speaker 6: kids that are eighteen to twenty five years old, in 521 00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:28,240 Speaker 6: many ways, they've been priced out of the American dream 522 00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:31,560 Speaker 6: that was not so three years ago under Trump, when 523 00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:33,960 Speaker 6: you have mortgage interest rates at two point five percent, 524 00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:36,600 Speaker 6: where you could graduate from college, get a job working 525 00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:38,960 Speaker 6: for maybe forty five fifty grand a year, and afford 526 00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:41,000 Speaker 6: to buy your first home and earn your way into 527 00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:44,479 Speaker 6: the American dream. These kids today, they don't have that 528 00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:47,760 Speaker 6: same opportunity. And we're at risk here in our country, guys. 529 00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:50,080 Speaker 6: Of you know, because every parent wants to say to 530 00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:51,879 Speaker 6: their children, Hey, I want my kids to have a 531 00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:54,360 Speaker 6: better life than I did. But we're at a point 532 00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:56,439 Speaker 6: in time in this country where that might not be 533 00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:58,960 Speaker 6: the case for the first time in a very long time. 534 00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:01,600 Speaker 6: And I think these kids are waking up to it. 535 00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:03,639 Speaker 6: And I just think they're not going to be voting 536 00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:05,240 Speaker 6: for Tim Wallas or Kamala Harris. 537 00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:09,679 Speaker 1: I think you're Hearnell everybody, Sean Parnell.

Appreciate you 571 00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:49,880 Speaker 2: making the time. I want to start with a question 572 00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:54,920 Speaker 2: that is extremely local in scope but could have major 573 00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:58,560 Speaker 2: national residents, and that is what do you think happens 574 00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:01,840 Speaker 2: in Omaha? The one an electoral vote there? We got 575 00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:04,600 Speaker 2: a lot of people listening on KFAB We Love You 576 00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:07,400 Speaker 2: and Omaha at a fabulous time at the College World Series. 577 00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:09,840 Speaker 1: Great group of people. What do you seeing their? 578 00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:11,960 Speaker 2: Senator, how does that shake out not only in the 579 00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:15,120 Speaker 2: electoral college but also I think there's a toss up 580 00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:16,280 Speaker 2: congressional race there. 581 00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:19,760 Speaker 4: Yeah. Absolutely for your listeners, it may not be aware 582 00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:26,200 Speaker 4: the second congressional district in Omaha is also at standalone 583 00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:29,440 Speaker 4: electoral college vote because of, frankly, a partisan move by 584 00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:32,280 Speaker 4: Democrats back in the nineteen nineties to split up our 585 00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:35,880 Speaker 4: electoral college votes by congressional district So if you win 586 00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:39,040 Speaker 4: the state overall, you get two electoral College votes and 587 00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:41,680 Speaker 4: then every congressional district stands alone. You have to win 588 00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:46,440 Speaker 4: that individually. And President Trump won this district in twenty 589 00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:49,560 Speaker 4: sixteen but lost it in twenty twenty and so it 590 00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:52,200 Speaker 4: just shows you, I mean, in just in general, this 591 00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:54,360 Speaker 4: district is very it's like one of the few purple 592 00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:57,560 Speaker 4: districts left in the country. It's split very fifty to fifty. 593 00:30:57,640 --> 00:31:01,760 Speaker 4: So it's always a tough congressional seat. So Don Bacon, 594 00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:04,680 Speaker 4: my congressman, is always has a tough race. He won 595 00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:08,239 Speaker 4: it by two points last time around in twenty two 596 00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:10,960 Speaker 4: and it's going to be a tough race again this 597 00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:12,640 Speaker 4: year for him, and it's going to be a tough 598 00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:15,480 Speaker 4: race for President Trump as well. So it's definitely going 599 00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:16,320 Speaker 4: to be a challenge. 600 00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:23,880 Speaker 1: Senator Rickett, appreciate you being with us. The Republicans had 601 00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:28,040 Speaker 1: a chance to change the situation of the Omaha district 602 00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:31,440 Speaker 1: and didn't. Is that correct? And what I mean, what 603 00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:33,080 Speaker 1: can you tell us about that? Because for a lot 604 00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:36,400 Speaker 1: of people, it's they have the power to change it. 605 00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:38,600 Speaker 1: It was a partisan move when Democrats did it. Why 606 00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:40,360 Speaker 1: not set it right and put it in line with 607 00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:42,680 Speaker 1: a vast majority of the rest of states. 608 00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:47,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, absolutely. Well, it's something that we tried when I 609 00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:50,200 Speaker 4: was governor. We attempted to do it every year I 610 00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:52,720 Speaker 4: was governor, tried to get a change back to winter 611 00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:54,760 Speaker 4: take Hall, which is what forty eight other states do, 612 00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:58,800 Speaker 4: and we always got blocked by the Democrats. So in 613 00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:01,880 Speaker 4: our one house legend, we have a fillbuster rule, so 614 00:32:01,960 --> 00:32:03,680 Speaker 4: you need to get thirty three of the forty nine 615 00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:08,200 Speaker 4: centers to pass anything that's controversial, and the Democrats always 616 00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:10,760 Speaker 4: had enough votes to be able to block us from 617 00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:12,920 Speaker 4: getting it done when I was governor. And sadly it's 618 00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:16,040 Speaker 4: the same thing with Governor Pillen. We did have a 619 00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:19,360 Speaker 4: Democrat reregistered as a Republican, but he basically changed his 620 00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:22,080 Speaker 4: party registration. It's not a philosophy, and so he would 621 00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:23,720 Speaker 4: not go along and put on a letter saying he 622 00:32:23,800 --> 00:32:26,440 Speaker 4: was not going to vote for winner take All, and 623 00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:28,600 Speaker 4: and so we did not have the thirty three votes 624 00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:31,080 Speaker 4: we needed to be able to get that change this year. 625 00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:33,320 Speaker 4: Something we're going to have to keep trying and just 626 00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:34,600 Speaker 4: work waits. 627 00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:37,000 Speaker 1: That's really important because I haven't heard that said anywhere. 628 00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:40,000 Speaker 1: You basically have a stealth Democrat with an R by 629 00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:43,080 Speaker 1: his name who is blocking the change to a winner 630 00:32:43,120 --> 00:32:46,440 Speaker 1: take all electoral college in Nebraska, and that sounds like, 631 00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:48,720 Speaker 1: what's going on here, Well, he's not. 632 00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:51,200 Speaker 4: A stealth Democrat. Everybody knows he's a Democrat. 633 00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:54,320 Speaker 1: Well well yeah, you guys all know. The rest of 634 00:32:54,320 --> 00:32:57,200 Speaker 1: the country, though, is all thinking, wait, a Republican blocked this? 635 00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:00,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, well from that, well yeah, but he just 636 00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:04,480 Speaker 4: reregisters as a Republican this year. So it was not 637 00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:07,040 Speaker 4: like a you know, he did this a while ago. 638 00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:10,200 Speaker 4: And when I was governor, for example, I served with him, 639 00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:11,560 Speaker 4: he was in the legislature, and he was always a 640 00:33:11,600 --> 00:33:14,640 Speaker 4: Democrat when I was there, So again it was not shocking. 641 00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:16,400 Speaker 4: We made a run at him, tried to get him 642 00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:19,040 Speaker 4: to go along with it, but just said he'd like 643 00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:21,320 Speaker 4: changed his party registration. But I a philosophy. 644 00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:24,920 Speaker 2: Okay, so let's go in. We also have a big 645 00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:27,960 Speaker 2: Senate race. And for people who may not be paying 646 00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:29,479 Speaker 2: a lot of attention, I know a lot of our 647 00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:32,960 Speaker 2: audience is. But in Nebraska you can speak to this. 648 00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:35,960 Speaker 2: You know, the difference between being the majority and the minority, 649 00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:39,640 Speaker 2: huge difference. West Virginia is going to flip. Thank you 650 00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:43,240 Speaker 2: West Virginians. Ohio, Bernie Marino is looking like he has 651 00:33:43,240 --> 00:33:46,040 Speaker 2: a really good chance of beating Sharad Brown. Tim Sha 652 00:33:47,040 --> 00:33:49,240 Speaker 2: we've had on the show quite a lot, is looking 653 00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:54,520 Speaker 2: very good to beat. John Tester got competitive races in Pennsylvania, Michigan, 654 00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:56,960 Speaker 2: and Wisconsin that could. 655 00:33:56,720 --> 00:33:57,720 Speaker 1: Be going our way. 656 00:33:58,280 --> 00:34:00,600 Speaker 2: What about Nebraska? What do people need to know there? 657 00:34:00,680 --> 00:34:03,760 Speaker 2: And what is the difference between my majority and minority 658 00:34:03,760 --> 00:34:04,720 Speaker 2: from your perspective? 659 00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:10,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, so I am actually in cycled. So my story 660 00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:13,760 Speaker 4: is that I was governor from twenty fifteen to twenty 661 00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:17,160 Speaker 4: twenty three, and then Ben SaaS stepped down as our 662 00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:20,880 Speaker 4: junior senator, and Governor Pillen appointed me to the position. 663 00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:24,719 Speaker 4: So I'm running in a special election this year to 664 00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:26,840 Speaker 4: be able to finish out the last two years of 665 00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:28,920 Speaker 4: Ben Sasa's term, and then we would have to run 666 00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:31,239 Speaker 4: again in twenty twenty six for a six year term 667 00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:34,840 Speaker 4: and then the regular cycle deb Fisher is up for election. 668 00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:36,759 Speaker 4: So we actually have both our Senate seats through up 669 00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:40,120 Speaker 4: in Nebraska this year. Okay, and dev has a tough 670 00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:43,239 Speaker 4: race because she's running against an independent who has got 671 00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:45,960 Speaker 4: Sorrow's money behind her. He's out spending her on TV 672 00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:49,040 Speaker 4: two to one, and all the public polling I've seen 673 00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:51,400 Speaker 4: shows that they're pretty much in a dead heat right now. 674 00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:54,279 Speaker 4: So we got to work to get the word out 675 00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:57,319 Speaker 4: to all Republicans say hey, you got to vote for 676 00:34:57,400 --> 00:35:01,319 Speaker 4: deb Fisher. This guy dan Osborne is an independent, but 677 00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:04,600 Speaker 4: he's really a Democrat. He's getting you know, ActBlue is 678 00:35:04,640 --> 00:35:07,680 Speaker 4: behind him. He was in Hollywood last week raising money. 679 00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:10,160 Speaker 4: I mentioned the Soros money already. I mean, this is 680 00:35:10,200 --> 00:35:12,680 Speaker 4: the profile of a Democrat, right and he's going to 681 00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:15,239 Speaker 4: even though he hasn't said, I'm quite certain he's going 682 00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:17,439 Speaker 4: to caucus with the Democrats. So to your point about 683 00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:19,239 Speaker 4: getting control of the Senate, it would make it that 684 00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:22,440 Speaker 4: much harder if dan Osborn were to win. So we 685 00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:25,680 Speaker 4: need debt Fisher with and she just has to get 686 00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:28,440 Speaker 4: out there. We need to get Republicans on board. We 687 00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:31,200 Speaker 4: need to get Republicans to you know, come back to 688 00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:34,040 Speaker 4: the Republican Party. And remember that deb is the conservative 689 00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:36,839 Speaker 4: Republican in this race, not Dan Osborne. He may have 690 00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:40,480 Speaker 4: some nice slick commercials where he talks about being independent, 691 00:35:40,560 --> 00:35:42,160 Speaker 4: but at the end of the day, we need to 692 00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:44,360 Speaker 4: make sure that we're taking control of the Senate for 693 00:35:44,440 --> 00:35:47,680 Speaker 4: two reasons. One, either to God forbid, Harris gets elected. 694 00:35:48,080 --> 00:35:51,640 Speaker 4: The firewall against the crazy things she's going to want 695 00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:54,600 Speaker 4: to do. Or in the case that we get President 696 00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:56,759 Speaker 4: Trump elected, we need to move fast to be able 697 00:35:56,800 --> 00:36:00,840 Speaker 4: to work on his agenda and quickly undo all the 698 00:36:00,920 --> 00:36:04,520 Speaker 4: damage that Biden Harris administration is done and do things 699 00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:07,920 Speaker 4: like get the twenty seventeen tax cuts, you know, reupt 700 00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:09,680 Speaker 4: and we need to make sure if we get his 701 00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:13,040 Speaker 4: cop people can confirm, you know, get his cabinet members in. 702 00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:16,280 Speaker 4: So this is a big deal and Republicans of Nebraska 703 00:36:16,360 --> 00:36:19,200 Speaker 4: really need to you know, make sure that they're voting 704 00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:21,680 Speaker 4: for Debt Fisher and turn out and vote because this 705 00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:23,280 Speaker 4: is a this is an important part of the election. 706 00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:28,560 Speaker 1: Speaking of Senator Ricketts of Nebraska, Senator, this is fascinating. 707 00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:32,440 Speaker 1: You know, we we haven't seen very much coverage at 708 00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:35,160 Speaker 1: all of what's going on here in the Senate races 709 00:36:35,160 --> 00:36:38,160 Speaker 1: that you've you've been talking about. And I got to say, 710 00:36:38,640 --> 00:36:41,480 Speaker 1: is this is this one of these moments where the 711 00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:45,719 Speaker 1: national level GOP and even more right leading media just 712 00:36:46,040 --> 00:36:48,600 Speaker 1: a little little asleep at the wheel on this one. 713 00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:51,760 Speaker 1: It sounds like you got a Soros back Democrat pretending 714 00:36:51,760 --> 00:36:54,200 Speaker 1: to be an independent, trying to steal what should be 715 00:36:54,280 --> 00:36:57,000 Speaker 1: a very winnable Senate set. I mean, that's that's something 716 00:36:57,040 --> 00:36:58,359 Speaker 1: we got to raise the alarm over. 717 00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:03,719 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's it's something that we certainly. It has kind 718 00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:06,040 Speaker 4: of actually come upon us relatively quickly, like within the 719 00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:09,359 Speaker 4: last six weeks or so, because that's because that's when 720 00:37:09,360 --> 00:37:11,080 Speaker 4: Ozma's been dumping money in the race. I mean he's 721 00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:13,319 Speaker 4: out spending Depth two to one, and we always get 722 00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:16,320 Speaker 4: outspent on the air. Right in most of these competitive races, 723 00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:18,600 Speaker 4: Democrats always have more money. I mean there is a 724 00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:21,480 Speaker 4: party of the rich elites, so they're getting all the 725 00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:24,960 Speaker 4: sorrows money and you know, Tom Steyer and everybody else. 726 00:37:25,560 --> 00:37:27,279 Speaker 4: And in this case, you know, the thing to remember 727 00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:30,440 Speaker 4: about Nebraska is we're also a very populous state and 728 00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:33,960 Speaker 4: we've had that history here for one hundred years. So 729 00:37:34,600 --> 00:37:36,640 Speaker 4: when somebody comes along and he's got the nice slick 730 00:37:36,719 --> 00:37:39,879 Speaker 4: ad and says he's an independent, that does appeal to Nebraskans. 731 00:37:40,120 --> 00:37:43,560 Speaker 4: And that's why we've got to remind, especially our conservative Republicans, 732 00:37:43,840 --> 00:37:46,520 Speaker 4: that you can't be fooled by this guy's ads. We 733 00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:48,440 Speaker 4: need to vote for the conservative Republican and that is 734 00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:51,160 Speaker 4: debth Fisher. It's not going to be that other guy. 735 00:37:51,960 --> 00:37:54,359 Speaker 4: And of course the osmoren Nane is very popular here 736 00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:57,600 Speaker 4: in Nebraska because Tom Osborne, you know, got us some 737 00:37:57,680 --> 00:38:01,080 Speaker 4: national championship back in the nineteen ninety in football. But 738 00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:05,799 Speaker 4: this is the guy's not related. 739 00:38:05,640 --> 00:38:07,000 Speaker 1: That's actually super important. 740 00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:09,520 Speaker 2: Again, it goes to me trusting college football fans more 741 00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:11,160 Speaker 2: than anyone. You guys are having a little bit of 742 00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:14,320 Speaker 2: a resurgence with the Nebraska Cornhusker program. 743 00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:16,000 Speaker 1: Big game coming up soon. 744 00:38:16,480 --> 00:38:18,399 Speaker 2: I think you're what five and one or four and one, 745 00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:20,440 Speaker 2: only one loss, I know to Illinois one. 746 00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:22,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, we're five and one actually looking pretty good at 747 00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:26,080 Speaker 4: the Big ten right now, and we got Indiana coming 748 00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:27,279 Speaker 4: up in a couple of weeks, so that's gonna be 749 00:38:27,320 --> 00:38:29,080 Speaker 4: a big game. We win that game, then we'll be 750 00:38:29,080 --> 00:38:30,719 Speaker 4: both loved for the first time in a long time. 751 00:38:30,800 --> 00:38:32,120 Speaker 4: So we're really excited this. 752 00:38:32,120 --> 00:38:34,240 Speaker 1: Year, all of that rolling together. 753 00:38:34,440 --> 00:38:36,879 Speaker 2: So again, like just to kind of bring it home, 754 00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:41,520 Speaker 2: you've got people who are not actually in the best 755 00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:44,840 Speaker 2: interest of the country trying, basically, i'll say it, to 756 00:38:44,960 --> 00:38:48,520 Speaker 2: steal a race that would not be winnable if this 757 00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:51,279 Speaker 2: guy were running as a Democrat, because I think you 758 00:38:51,280 --> 00:38:56,160 Speaker 2: would acknowledge and probably recognize too, the Democrat brand in 759 00:38:56,200 --> 00:38:59,440 Speaker 2: the heartland is really toxic, so they're trying to do 760 00:38:59,480 --> 00:39:02,440 Speaker 2: this sneak by running this guy as an independent. 761 00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:04,520 Speaker 1: I think that's important for Nebraskas to know. 762 00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:08,279 Speaker 4: That is important for Nebraskas to know. In fact, the 763 00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:11,120 Speaker 4: Democrats have said this that they think the way to 764 00:39:11,160 --> 00:39:13,040 Speaker 4: win in red states is by running an independent, and 765 00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:15,480 Speaker 4: they're trying it here in Nebraska. And what we have 766 00:39:15,520 --> 00:39:17,160 Speaker 4: to do is show them, no, this is a bad idea. 767 00:39:17,560 --> 00:39:19,000 Speaker 4: You're not actually going to be able to win in 768 00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:22,759 Speaker 4: states like Nebraska because we actually are conservative. And to 769 00:39:22,800 --> 00:39:25,120 Speaker 4: your point, the Democrats have gone so far left. If 770 00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:27,520 Speaker 4: you look back in the nineteen nineties here in Nebraska, 771 00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:32,319 Speaker 4: all of our statewide elected offices, we're actually Democrats, and 772 00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:34,719 Speaker 4: the Democrats have gone so far left with the things 773 00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:37,880 Speaker 4: they're doing. You know, they want abortion up until the 774 00:39:37,960 --> 00:39:39,759 Speaker 4: moment of birth. That's what this guy is running against 775 00:39:39,800 --> 00:39:43,400 Speaker 4: my congressman, you know, is doing, is he wants abortion 776 00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:45,279 Speaker 4: up to the moment birth. Won't say when he would 777 00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:49,000 Speaker 4: cut off abortion. They're just crazy radical on that. We 778 00:39:49,080 --> 00:39:52,760 Speaker 4: know all the like boys played in girls' sports, and 779 00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:55,360 Speaker 4: of course the spending is just out of control, the 780 00:39:55,400 --> 00:39:58,399 Speaker 4: weakness they show on the international stage, inflation, the open 781 00:39:58,440 --> 00:40:01,600 Speaker 4: southern border, these things that Democrats are doing are just 782 00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:04,120 Speaker 4: not what Nebraska's want. And that's what you're going to 783 00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:06,359 Speaker 4: get with Dan Osbourne if you if you vote for him, said, 784 00:40:06,360 --> 00:40:09,600 Speaker 4: you're going to get high prices and open borders, which 785 00:40:09,640 --> 00:40:12,120 Speaker 4: is what this administration has been all about. Harris has 786 00:40:12,160 --> 00:40:15,200 Speaker 4: been all about this open border, high prices, like, don't 787 00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:18,080 Speaker 4: vote for more of that with this guy who's scusing 788 00:40:18,120 --> 00:40:18,640 Speaker 4: the Independent. 789 00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:22,080 Speaker 1: It is really a Democrat, no doubt, the Senator. 790 00:40:22,160 --> 00:40:25,560 Speaker 2: We appreciate it, and good luck to the corn Huskers 791 00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:28,600 Speaker 2: getting Bowl eligible and fighting their way potentially into some 792 00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:31,839 Speaker 2: Big ten competition. A lot of fun to watch them resurging. 793 00:40:31,880 --> 00:40:34,840 Speaker 2: But remember this is not Tom Osborne's relative. This is 794 00:40:34,880 --> 00:40:37,280 Speaker 2: not your daddy's Nebraska Cornhusker connection. 795 00:40:37,760 --> 00:40:38,359 Speaker 1: Thank you for the. 796 00:40:38,320 --> 00:40:41,160 Speaker 4: Time, great, thanks a lot, appreciate it, Thanks for having 797 00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:41,399 Speaker 4: me on. 798 00:40:41,960 --> 00:40:44,760 Speaker 1: I know I've been very impressed by the corn Husker defense. 799 00:40:44,840 --> 00:40:48,440 Speaker 1: Clay also the offense. Very good. 800 00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:51,160 Speaker 2: You're wearing your red because you knew we were talking 801 00:40:51,200 --> 00:40:55,560 Speaker 2: to Nebraska Cornhusker fans today. It was particular with that's 802 00:40:55,600 --> 00:40:59,839 Speaker 2: I think the first visit from from a senator from 803 00:40:59,840 --> 00:41:00,840 Speaker 2: the asking on the program. 804 00:41:00,880 --> 00:41:02,319 Speaker 1: So we'll do whatever we can to help. I know 805 00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:06,120 Speaker 1: that Senate race issue that have you heard that honestly 806 00:41:06,440 --> 00:41:09,080 Speaker 1: talked about on any shows anywhere. They're hide they're trying 807 00:41:09,080 --> 00:41:12,760 Speaker 1: to hide a seat plain site. That's exactly they're They're 808 00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:15,640 Speaker 1: doing it quietly because that's how they know they could 809 00:41:15,640 --> 00:41:18,719 Speaker 1: pull it off, because there's no way that a Republican 810 00:41:18,760 --> 00:41:22,479 Speaker 1: shouldn't win a Senate seat statewide race in Nebraska. Well, 811 00:41:23,320 --> 00:41:27,480 Speaker 1: you know they're very sneaky, Soros money in there, the 812 00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:27,960 Speaker 1: whole thing. 813 00:41:28,480 --> 00:41:31,360 Speaker 2: Be careful again, just ask the question, who are you 814 00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:36,000 Speaker 2: going to cauc us with independence? In states like Nebraska, 815 00:41:36,040 --> 00:41:38,360 Speaker 2: they run as independence. Is what Joe Manchin did, This 816 00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:41,319 Speaker 2: is what Kirsten Cinema did. They eventually said, oh, I'm 817 00:41:41,320 --> 00:41:44,120 Speaker 2: an independent, but they continue to caucus with the Democrats. Well, 818 00:41:44,160 --> 00:41:47,080 Speaker 2: an independent who caucuses with the Democrat is a Democrat. 819 00:41:47,480 --> 00:41:49,880 Speaker 2: Don't let them hide from you what they are trying 820 00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:52,840 Speaker 2: to sneak by. Again, we got that huge audience in 821 00:41:52,920 --> 00:41:56,040 Speaker 2: k Fab listening to us right now in Omaha.

Frankly, 859 00:43:47,120 --> 00:43:50,640 Speaker 2: and we appreciate all of you. Category five storm one 860 00:43:50,719 --> 00:43:55,799 Speaker 2: hundred and seventy five miles per hour in the latest reporting, 861 00:43:56,480 --> 00:44:00,440 Speaker 2: one of you sent me a hurricane trajectory, which confirm 862 00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:03,680 Speaker 2: my thesis here that you don't see very many storms 863 00:44:03,719 --> 00:44:07,520 Speaker 2: that are on the trajectory that Milton is on Historically, 864 00:44:07,920 --> 00:44:10,960 Speaker 2: since we've been able to track hurricanes, the pathway that 865 00:44:11,000 --> 00:44:14,520 Speaker 2: it is following is a bit of an abnormality, and 866 00:44:14,560 --> 00:44:18,480 Speaker 2: it is putting Tampa, potentially Orlando, South Florida, certainly the 867 00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:21,960 Speaker 2: area of Fort Myers Naples that got hit just a 868 00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:26,400 Speaker 2: couple of years ago with a devastating hurricane again potentially 869 00:44:26,480 --> 00:44:30,520 Speaker 2: sweeping through the state of Florida. Buck, you're in South Florida. 870 00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:34,400 Speaker 2: The expectation is that that may arrive Wednesday Thursday. So 871 00:44:34,480 --> 00:44:37,759 Speaker 2: this is a fast moving storm. If you, I would 872 00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:40,239 Speaker 2: imagine are in Florida, you are hearing a lot about it, 873 00:44:40,280 --> 00:44:45,080 Speaker 2: but just please stay safe and listen to people in 874 00:44:45,120 --> 00:44:48,439 Speaker 2: your communities telling you what the smartest thing to do is. Buck, 875 00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:50,960 Speaker 2: I don't know how well you know Tampa, and we're 876 00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:53,320 Speaker 2: going to get to the one year anniversary of October seventh. 877 00:44:53,360 --> 00:44:53,560 Speaker 1: Here. 878 00:44:53,800 --> 00:44:56,800 Speaker 2: It's a beautiful place, has not really been hit hard 879 00:44:56,840 --> 00:44:59,640 Speaker 2: by a hurricane in about one hundred years. This a 880 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:04,880 Speaker 2: major metropolitan area that has a burgeoning growth rate. The 881 00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:09,120 Speaker 2: area that potentially could be hit is a highly developed 882 00:45:09,320 --> 00:45:12,000 Speaker 2: region of the state that has not seen a hurricane 883 00:45:12,040 --> 00:45:14,319 Speaker 2: like this in maybe up to one hundred years, when 884 00:45:14,360 --> 00:45:18,480 Speaker 2: Tampa was a much smaller area. So this is a 885 00:45:19,200 --> 00:45:21,759 Speaker 2: Category five. But as you were telling me during one 886 00:45:21,800 --> 00:45:24,160 Speaker 2: of the breaks. The miles per hour of the wind 887 00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:27,080 Speaker 2: speed right now at one hundred and seventy five would 888 00:45:27,160 --> 00:45:30,279 Speaker 2: be one of the strongest Cat fives to ever hit 889 00:45:30,360 --> 00:45:32,480 Speaker 2: the state of Florida in recorded history. 890 00:45:34,440 --> 00:45:38,160 Speaker 1: It's very concerning, and my thoughts are already with everybody 891 00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:44,000 Speaker 1: who's preparing that on that whole Gulf coast side of 892 00:45:44,040 --> 00:45:51,560 Speaker 1: the state. And look, Florida prepares for hurricanes, understands how 893 00:45:51,560 --> 00:45:53,839 Speaker 1: to deal with these as well as were better than 894 00:45:53,840 --> 00:45:56,440 Speaker 1: any state in the country. But a category five is 895 00:45:56,440 --> 00:45:59,360 Speaker 1: a category five. And if it continues at that pace, look, 896 00:46:00,239 --> 00:46:04,640 Speaker 1: let's all pray that it storm lessens and loses force. 897 00:46:04,760 --> 00:46:07,880 Speaker 1: And but I don't even know how to clay the 898 00:46:07,920 --> 00:46:10,560 Speaker 1: trajectory of it. You know, sometimes it goes back out 899 00:46:10,680 --> 00:46:15,120 Speaker 1: toward the ocean when it comes in from the southeast, 900 00:46:15,160 --> 00:46:16,799 Speaker 1: and I feel like I'm a weatherman, comes in from 901 00:46:16,840 --> 00:46:18,879 Speaker 1: the southeast and makes its way up and it can 902 00:46:19,120 --> 00:46:21,920 Speaker 1: make a you back out toward the Atlantic. I mean, 903 00:46:21,960 --> 00:46:24,239 Speaker 1: it's making landfall one way or the other. Based on 904 00:46:24,239 --> 00:46:26,440 Speaker 1: how this storm is moving. It's just a question with 905 00:46:26,480 --> 00:46:30,160 Speaker 1: what ferocity that's right. So again it's going to take 906 00:46:30,200 --> 00:46:33,440 Speaker 1: over the entire news cycle. In the midst of this 907 00:46:33,560 --> 00:46:38,160 Speaker 1: presidential campaign, lots of positives coming in for Trump, the 908 00:46:38,200 --> 00:46:41,480 Speaker 1: gambling markets moving in a direction very favorable to Trump. 909 00:46:41,760 --> 00:46:45,080 Speaker 1: In the wake of the Butler Pennsylvania rally, I think 910 00:46:45,120 --> 00:46:47,040 Speaker 1: a lot of people are fed up with what they've 911 00:46:47,040 --> 00:46:51,400 Speaker 1: seen from Hurricane Helene response in North Carolina, in Georgia, 912 00:46:51,880 --> 00:46:55,480 Speaker 1: in Virginia and Tennessee. We're continuing to shine a light 913 00:46:55,560 --> 00:46:59,120 Speaker 1: on that as another hurricane prepares to come through. But 914 00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:02,760 Speaker 1: it's also the one year anniversary of the terror attack 915 00:47:02,920 --> 00:47:08,560 Speaker 1: October seventh in Israel, the deadliest day for Jewish people 916 00:47:08,640 --> 00:47:12,120 Speaker 1: since the Holocaust. And we're gonna play a cut for you, 917 00:47:12,200 --> 00:47:15,160 Speaker 1: Buck from your home city of New York City, where 918 00:47:15,440 --> 00:47:22,320 Speaker 1: on Columbia's campus there are students marching around celebrating today 919 00:47:22,840 --> 00:47:26,480 Speaker 1: the October seventh attack on Israel one year ago. But 920 00:47:26,800 --> 00:47:30,360 Speaker 1: Kamala is going to be interviewed by sixty Minutes tonight 921 00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:36,360 Speaker 1: and she was asked about her perspective on what happened there. 922 00:47:36,600 --> 00:47:40,279 Speaker 1: And I want everybody out there to listen to this 923 00:47:40,480 --> 00:47:44,520 Speaker 1: gobblygook as they continue to put Kamala out there in 924 00:47:44,640 --> 00:47:48,120 Speaker 1: the larger universe, and she tries to make arguments. She 925 00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:53,040 Speaker 1: got two cuts for her. Let's start with she refuses 926 00:47:53,160 --> 00:47:57,879 Speaker 1: to say that Netan Yahoo is an ally again. This 927 00:47:57,960 --> 00:48:01,480 Speaker 1: aired yesterday, It's airing tonight on the one year anniversary. 928 00:48:01,560 --> 00:48:05,680 Speaker 1: Cut one, Kamala Harris sixty minutes. Do we have a 929 00:48:05,760 --> 00:48:10,600 Speaker 1: real close ally in prime Minister Yahoo? 930 00:48:11,560 --> 00:48:14,520 Speaker 3: I think, with all due respect, the better question is 931 00:48:14,600 --> 00:48:19,000 Speaker 3: do we have an important alliance between the American people 932 00:48:19,120 --> 00:48:21,960 Speaker 3: and the Israeli people? And the answer to that question 933 00:48:22,080 --> 00:48:22,399 Speaker 3: is yes. 934 00:48:23,600 --> 00:48:27,799 Speaker 2: Okay Buck refusing to say that we're in alliance with 935 00:48:27,920 --> 00:48:31,080 Speaker 2: Benjamin Netanyaho is assigned to me when I heard this 936 00:48:31,160 --> 00:48:34,120 Speaker 2: and I watched this clip that she is in real 937 00:48:34,239 --> 00:48:38,080 Speaker 2: dire straits in Michigan because she's terrified of what Arab 938 00:48:38,160 --> 00:48:40,200 Speaker 2: voters in the state of Michigan, where I spent my 939 00:48:40,239 --> 00:48:42,719 Speaker 2: weekend up there, had an awesome time interacting with a 940 00:48:42,719 --> 00:48:45,719 Speaker 2: lot of Michiganders. My wife is from there. She's from 941 00:48:45,760 --> 00:48:47,759 Speaker 2: the region of the country where there is a huge 942 00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:51,040 Speaker 2: Jewish and Arab population, one of the few battleground states 943 00:48:51,040 --> 00:48:53,600 Speaker 2: that has both. And it feels to me like Kamala 944 00:48:53,600 --> 00:48:57,480 Speaker 2: Harris is a mess trying to calibrate the political response 945 00:48:57,520 --> 00:49:00,000 Speaker 2: here because refusing to say net yiaho is an ally 946 00:49:00,360 --> 00:49:02,239 Speaker 2: is a slap in the face to anyone who cares 947 00:49:02,239 --> 00:49:03,440 Speaker 2: about the safety of Israel. 948 00:49:03,800 --> 00:49:09,080 Speaker 1: Well, these these are the rhetorical games that people who 949 00:49:09,400 --> 00:49:12,480 Speaker 1: Israel and let's let's just be frank, the Jewish people 950 00:49:13,040 --> 00:49:15,680 Speaker 1: cannot trust. These are the rhetorical games that they play, 951 00:49:15,920 --> 00:49:19,000 Speaker 1: things like I'm not I'm not anti Semitic, I just 952 00:49:19,160 --> 00:49:22,160 Speaker 1: I just hate Zionists, right, or something like that. People 953 00:49:22,160 --> 00:49:25,000 Speaker 1: will say that or I oppose Zionism, I have no 954 00:49:25,080 --> 00:49:27,840 Speaker 1: problem with Jews. That just the Jewish state is a problem. 955 00:49:27,960 --> 00:49:28,080 Speaker 4: Right. 956 00:49:28,120 --> 00:49:33,880 Speaker 1: There's this rhetorical game that a lot of anti Semites 957 00:49:34,120 --> 00:49:39,400 Speaker 1: and a lot of Democrats now find themselves playing. And 958 00:49:39,840 --> 00:49:43,160 Speaker 1: this is this is the problem the Democrat party faces. 959 00:49:43,760 --> 00:49:46,880 Speaker 1: When you have the one year anniversary of October seventh, 960 00:49:47,120 --> 00:49:51,320 Speaker 1: it is not only a reminder of how absolutely horrific 961 00:49:52,080 --> 00:49:58,200 Speaker 1: and heinous and truly demonic that terror attack was on 962 00:49:58,560 --> 00:50:04,080 Speaker 1: the Jewish people. Things that I mean as acts were committed, 963 00:50:04,120 --> 00:50:07,600 Speaker 1: atrocities committed that any person of any decency or character 964 00:50:08,080 --> 00:50:11,279 Speaker 1: would honestly take a bullet themselves before they would ever 965 00:50:11,320 --> 00:50:15,759 Speaker 1: do And Hamas did this, their fighters did this wholesale 966 00:50:15,840 --> 00:50:18,799 Speaker 1: as a matter of policy, as an active decision that 967 00:50:18,840 --> 00:50:24,000 Speaker 1: they were going to rape, torture, mutilate, murder, and so 968 00:50:24,640 --> 00:50:27,360 Speaker 1: you have that component of a clay, which is something 969 00:50:27,360 --> 00:50:30,280 Speaker 1: we all have to remember, and to me, it reminds 970 00:50:30,280 --> 00:50:33,120 Speaker 1: me very much of the sadism and the evil that 971 00:50:33,719 --> 00:50:37,040 Speaker 1: we face in places like Iraq and Afghanistan with the Jihattists. 972 00:50:37,080 --> 00:50:42,200 Speaker 1: It's a similar, similar ideology, similar approach. But also the 973 00:50:42,280 --> 00:50:46,279 Speaker 1: American college kids who were you know, I have to 974 00:50:46,320 --> 00:50:47,880 Speaker 1: say I read this Clay. I don't know if you 975 00:50:47,880 --> 00:50:50,760 Speaker 1: saw it. But Barry Wise over at the Free Press, 976 00:50:51,640 --> 00:50:53,400 Speaker 1: which is her substack, which is I think one of 977 00:50:53,440 --> 00:50:57,160 Speaker 1: the biggest substack accounts out there, biggest substack publications out there, 978 00:50:57,920 --> 00:51:02,040 Speaker 1: she did a rundown of what it was like, not 979 00:51:02,400 --> 00:51:06,600 Speaker 1: six months after October seventh, but on October eighth and ninth, 980 00:51:07,360 --> 00:51:12,719 Speaker 1: and the days immediately after this attack, when Harvard University 981 00:51:12,760 --> 00:51:19,400 Speaker 1: had thirty student organizations say that this was Israel's fault. Yeah, 982 00:51:19,920 --> 00:51:25,440 Speaker 1: Harvard University allegedly the most elite, brilliant institution of the planet. 983 00:51:25,440 --> 00:51:26,799 Speaker 1: By the way, it's not. And there are a lot 984 00:51:26,800 --> 00:51:28,360 Speaker 1: of morons there, and I know a lot of morons 985 00:51:28,400 --> 00:51:31,360 Speaker 1: who have gone to school there, but that's the reputation 986 00:51:31,560 --> 00:51:34,440 Speaker 1: it has. You know, one of the biggest idiots was 987 00:51:34,440 --> 00:51:36,520 Speaker 1: actually the president of Harvard, who ended up losing her 988 00:51:36,760 --> 00:51:43,000 Speaker 1: presidency over this. But Clay, there was something unleashed on 989 00:51:43,040 --> 00:51:46,959 Speaker 1: the you know, within the American left that people will 990 00:51:47,000 --> 00:51:51,000 Speaker 1: not for it should not, I hope forget. This happened, 991 00:51:51,400 --> 00:51:54,000 Speaker 1: and it wasn't even Usually what the left does is 992 00:51:54,040 --> 00:51:57,880 Speaker 1: they say, hey, hey, hold on, let's not rush to anything. 993 00:51:58,160 --> 00:52:01,040 Speaker 1: We don't want more dead bodies. Take a moment, let's 994 00:52:01,080 --> 00:52:03,319 Speaker 1: talk this out. They didn't even do that, which is 995 00:52:03,400 --> 00:52:06,520 Speaker 1: usually running cover by the way for the evildoers. You know, 996 00:52:07,440 --> 00:52:14,520 Speaker 1: there was this it's Israel's fault chorus amongst American Kamala 997 00:52:14,560 --> 00:52:18,440 Speaker 1: and Biden voters. Let's be honest, that's who. How many 998 00:52:18,520 --> 00:52:24,120 Speaker 1: people voted for Trump nationwide? Who are big Hamas fans? 999 00:52:24,640 --> 00:52:27,120 Speaker 1: I mean, I mean, you know there's lunatics everywhere. You 1000 00:52:27,120 --> 00:52:28,960 Speaker 1: got three and fifty million people. I think you could 1001 00:52:28,960 --> 00:52:32,040 Speaker 1: probably count them on both hands. Didn't happen. If you 1002 00:52:32,120 --> 00:52:37,800 Speaker 1: are a pro Hamas American, you are a Kamala base voter. 1003 00:52:38,200 --> 00:52:41,320 Speaker 1: You are a Democrat, and I think the Democrat Party 1004 00:52:41,480 --> 00:52:44,080 Speaker 1: can't shake that right now. And so really it comes 1005 00:52:44,120 --> 00:52:47,160 Speaker 1: down to, for a lot of Jewish American voters, you 1006 00:52:47,239 --> 00:52:49,719 Speaker 1: were shown what the Democrat Party really thinks of you. 1007 00:52:50,320 --> 00:52:53,840 Speaker 1: We have a lot of Jewish listeners who already vote Republican. 1008 00:52:53,920 --> 00:52:56,439 Speaker 1: Some of them maybe you're Independence or Democrats, but I'm 1009 00:52:56,480 --> 00:52:59,719 Speaker 1: talking about for those who have supported Biden and now 1010 00:52:59,719 --> 00:53:03,080 Speaker 1: are thinking about supporting Harris. If you choose to ignore 1011 00:53:03,360 --> 00:53:07,200 Speaker 1: the what the Democrat Party showed you with these campus 1012 00:53:07,200 --> 00:53:10,040 Speaker 1: protests and the white politicians responded to it, and the 1013 00:53:10,040 --> 00:53:13,200 Speaker 1: way media outlets responded to it, I don't know what 1014 00:53:13,280 --> 00:53:17,880 Speaker 1: to say. Let's play a couple of cuts building on that. 1015 00:53:19,760 --> 00:53:24,120 Speaker 1: She was asked again about net Yahoo and the response 1016 00:53:24,160 --> 00:53:27,080 Speaker 1: of Israel. This is going to air tonight on sixty minutes. 1017 00:53:27,120 --> 00:53:31,080 Speaker 1: This is Bill Whittaker asking Kamala Harris again. You heard 1018 00:53:31,080 --> 00:53:33,840 Speaker 1: her say that she would not say that Netanyahu was 1019 00:53:33,920 --> 00:53:36,760 Speaker 1: an ally, which again is a slap in the face. 1020 00:53:36,800 --> 00:53:40,520 Speaker 1: But here is a further analysis from Kamala Harris. Listen 1021 00:53:40,560 --> 00:53:44,800 Speaker 1: to this word, Salad. It seems that Prime Minister Netanyah, 1022 00:53:44,840 --> 00:53:46,720 Speaker 1: who is not listening. 1023 00:53:46,880 --> 00:53:50,680 Speaker 3: Well, Bill, The work that we have done has resulted 1024 00:53:51,040 --> 00:53:56,400 Speaker 3: in a number of movements in that region by Israel 1025 00:53:56,520 --> 00:54:01,839 Speaker 3: that were very much prompted by or a result of 1026 00:54:02,360 --> 00:54:06,040 Speaker 3: many things, including our advocacy for what needs to happen 1027 00:54:06,040 --> 00:54:06,600 Speaker 3: in the region. 1028 00:54:07,600 --> 00:54:13,560 Speaker 1: Fuck, what does that mean? I mean, I know, I 1029 00:54:13,640 --> 00:54:16,719 Speaker 1: really mean, like you listen to it and you could 1030 00:54:16,760 --> 00:54:20,000 Speaker 1: play it back over and over again. These are the 1031 00:54:20,040 --> 00:54:24,319 Speaker 1: words of a person being asked about a movie that 1032 00:54:24,360 --> 00:54:27,840 Speaker 1: she did not see or a book she did not read. 1033 00:54:28,440 --> 00:54:31,520 Speaker 1: This is nonsense. The work I have a quote here, Clay, 1034 00:54:31,719 --> 00:54:35,040 Speaker 1: The work that we have done has resulted in a 1035 00:54:35,160 --> 00:54:40,960 Speaker 1: number of movements in that region by Israel that were 1036 00:54:41,120 --> 00:54:46,240 Speaker 1: very much prompted by or a result of many things, 1037 00:54:46,719 --> 00:54:49,879 Speaker 1: including our advocacy for what needs to happen in the region. 1038 00:54:50,040 --> 00:54:52,879 Speaker 1: That is a direct quote. I did not mess around 1039 00:54:52,880 --> 00:54:56,239 Speaker 1: at all. This is Kamala Harris answering Clay with we 1040 00:54:56,320 --> 00:54:59,200 Speaker 1: did some stuff that affected some things that did things 1041 00:54:59,200 --> 00:55:02,880 Speaker 1: that were also stuff. It's black. 1042 00:55:03,040 --> 00:55:07,239 Speaker 2: It's absolute chaos that answer, and I want to play 1043 00:55:07,280 --> 00:55:12,120 Speaker 2: you were mentioning these elite institutions. This is today on 1044 00:55:12,239 --> 00:55:15,960 Speaker 2: Columbia's campus. Listen to what they are chanting on the 1045 00:55:16,000 --> 00:55:20,360 Speaker 2: anniversary the one year anniversary of the October seventh terror attack. 1046 00:55:44,239 --> 00:55:46,600 Speaker 2: And I know it's kind of hard sometimes to hear. 1047 00:55:47,320 --> 00:55:52,080 Speaker 2: What they are chanting on Columbia's campus today is they're saying, 1048 00:55:52,160 --> 00:55:58,480 Speaker 2: what do we want? What do we need? Death to Israel. Also, 1049 00:55:58,960 --> 00:56:04,160 Speaker 2: resistance is glue. We will be victorious. I mean, this 1050 00:56:04,440 --> 00:56:08,799 Speaker 2: is just even for people out there that I think 1051 00:56:08,880 --> 00:56:12,400 Speaker 2: were stunned by what they saw and respond Stocsober seventh, 1052 00:56:12,800 --> 00:56:16,640 Speaker 2: on the one year anniversary of the largest terror attack 1053 00:56:16,880 --> 00:56:20,320 Speaker 2: and murder of Jewish people since the Holocaust. This is 1054 00:56:20,360 --> 00:56:22,360 Speaker 2: what's happening on the campus of Columbia. 1055 00:56:23,440 --> 00:56:25,600 Speaker 1: And I mean, I think it's worth remembering. Just like 1056 00:56:26,040 --> 00:56:29,160 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty they were talking about the riots and 1057 00:56:29,200 --> 00:56:33,279 Speaker 1: the rioters of BLM, those were Biden voters. This is 1058 00:56:33,320 --> 00:56:39,160 Speaker 1: politically affiliated. The Prohamas anti Semitism that exists in America 1059 00:56:39,840 --> 00:56:44,480 Speaker 1: is almost exclusively it is a ninety nine percent Democrat 1060 00:56:44,520 --> 00:56:48,080 Speaker 1: party phenomenon. Okay, we all know this. You see this 1061 00:56:48,160 --> 00:56:51,040 Speaker 1: going on on the campuses. I don't know how much 1062 00:56:51,040 --> 00:56:55,399 Speaker 1: more clear it could be. And you also want to ask, 1063 00:56:55,520 --> 00:56:58,600 Speaker 1: I think as though you could have a rational conversation 1064 00:56:58,680 --> 00:57:02,880 Speaker 1: play with people that would take the side of the 1065 00:57:02,880 --> 00:57:08,560 Speaker 1: butchers of women and children and the elderly on and 1066 00:57:08,920 --> 00:57:11,480 Speaker 1: also maybe I just say this, you know, having spent 1067 00:57:11,600 --> 00:57:15,680 Speaker 1: some time in combat zones and having some understanding of 1068 00:57:16,240 --> 00:57:21,280 Speaker 1: what does go on with warfare. There is in fact 1069 00:57:21,280 --> 00:57:25,680 Speaker 1: a difference between a missile strike that has civilian casualties 1070 00:57:26,240 --> 00:57:30,760 Speaker 1: and sending men into civilian homes to rape, mutilate, and 1071 00:57:30,840 --> 00:57:34,000 Speaker 1: murder women and children. These are different things. And I 1072 00:57:34,040 --> 00:57:37,360 Speaker 1: know that the friends of Hamas, the Democrat left who 1073 00:57:37,400 --> 00:57:40,080 Speaker 1: love to make excuses for the Palestinians, who can never 1074 00:57:40,120 --> 00:57:43,760 Speaker 1: make up enough excuses for themselves. Given so much money, 1075 00:57:43,800 --> 00:57:46,440 Speaker 1: given so many options, given autonomy, and what do they 1076 00:57:46,480 --> 00:57:50,200 Speaker 1: do now? They elect Hamas, they put Hamas in charge, 1077 00:57:50,200 --> 00:57:53,800 Speaker 1: and they support Amas, but they act like this is 1078 00:57:53,840 --> 00:57:57,840 Speaker 1: the same and it is not the same. And also Clay, 1079 00:57:58,280 --> 00:58:01,640 Speaker 1: if they will justify that, what would not if they 1080 00:58:01,640 --> 00:58:03,120 Speaker 1: were to get their hands on a nuke and they 1081 00:58:03,120 --> 00:58:05,480 Speaker 1: were to nuke Tel Aviv? Would would the college campus 1082 00:58:05,600 --> 00:58:08,480 Speaker 1: kids all be marching with this is payback? I think 1083 00:58:08,560 --> 00:58:11,640 Speaker 1: the answer is yes. I think they would say that, 1084 00:58:11,720 --> 00:58:13,880 Speaker 1: I truly do, which gives you a sense of just 1085 00:58:14,000 --> 00:58:19,920 Speaker 1: how perverted and maniacal this anti Israeli movement is in 1086 00:58:19,960 --> 00:58:24,680 Speaker 1: this country. So I just in this election, I feel 1087 00:58:24,720 --> 00:58:26,840 Speaker 1: like it couldn't be any more clear what the two 1088 00:58:26,880 --> 00:58:29,880 Speaker 1: sides stand for Kamala Harris won't even won't even say 1089 00:58:30,080 --> 00:58:32,240 Speaker 1: that she stands with net Yahoo in this moment. So 1090 00:58:33,080 --> 00:58:36,200 Speaker 1: it's laid out for everybody. If your savings and retirement 1091 00:58:36,200 --> 00:58:39,040 Speaker 1: accounts are one hundred percent invested in cash US currency, 1092 00:58:39,080 --> 00:58:41,280 Speaker 1: you're not alone. But if you can, I want you 1093 00:58:41,320 --> 00:58:44,120 Speaker 1: to think about investing a portion of your savings in gold. 1094 00:58:44,840 --> 00:58:47,600 Speaker 1: The current price of gold is an indication why you 1095 00:58:47,640 --> 00:58:50,280 Speaker 1: should think about this, but the long term picture of 1096 00:58:50,360 --> 00:58:54,000 Speaker 1: gold's value really reinforces what we've done all along. Gold 1097 00:58:54,200 --> 00:58:57,000 Speaker 1: is a store of value, and this is why you 1098 00:58:57,080 --> 00:59:00,480 Speaker 1: need people you trust to help you build appropriate gold 1099 00:59:00,560 --> 00:59:03,520 Speaker 1: holdings for yourself.
