I want to thank our Vice 6 00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:29,960 Speaker 1: President Mike Pence and Karen. I want to thank Congress 7 00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:33,440 Speaker 1: because we really worked well with Congress, at least certain 8 00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:37,199 Speaker 1: elements of Congress, but we really did. We've gotten so 9 00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:39,879 Speaker 1: much done that nobody thought would be possible. But I 10 00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:41,600 Speaker 1: do want to thank Congress. I don't want to thank 11 00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:44,440 Speaker 1: all of the great people of Washington, DC, all of 12 00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:47,920 Speaker 1: the people that we worked with to put this miracle together. 13 00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:52,280 Speaker 1: So have a good life. We will see you soon. 14 00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:56,279 Speaker 1: Thank you, Thank you very much. It is the end 15 00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:57,960 Speaker 1: of an era and the beginning of a new one. 16 00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:02,160 Speaker 1: Donald Trump no longer President of the United States. Joe 17 00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:08,560 Speaker 1: Biden sworn in number forty six. Get ready for what 18 00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:15,080 Speaker 1: this means. You should brace now for the Democrat left backlash. 19 00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:17,600 Speaker 1: It has been building up for four years. I wish 20 00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:19,560 Speaker 1: I could tell you that I thought this moment in 21 00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:24,319 Speaker 1: time would be one of national unity, of coming together, 22 00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:27,960 Speaker 1: of sanity back in government. But you wouldn't even believe 23 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:30,679 Speaker 1: that if somebody said it to you. Do you think 24 00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:34,199 Speaker 1: that Trump derangement syndrome just goes away now that Trump 25 00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:40,319 Speaker 1: is no longer president. Now it's just Democrat derangement syndrome. Now, 26 00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:45,600 Speaker 1: this is settling scores, it's silencing opposing voices, it is 27 00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:50,160 Speaker 1: crushing descent. That's what they're really planning here, That's really 28 00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:54,520 Speaker 1: the idea behind all of this. They have no interest 29 00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:57,920 Speaker 1: in a third way. They have no interest in finding 30 00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:04,840 Speaker 1: a triangulation, a middle ground, a halfway mark. No, they 31 00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 1: have control of the House of the Senate and of 32 00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:10,160 Speaker 1: the presidency. And this means that we are now living 33 00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:12,560 Speaker 1: in a country that's going to feel very different for 34 00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:16,519 Speaker 1: at least some time. We have to be prepared for 35 00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:19,600 Speaker 1: what this means, for our ability to even speak out 36 00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 1: against this. You are now going to have ninety five 37 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:29,960 Speaker 1: percent of the journalistic establishment completely in the pocket of 38 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:33,359 Speaker 1: a presidential administration. They warned us for four years, they 39 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:40,040 Speaker 1: screamed and cried about tyranny from Trump, when every journalist 40 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:44,560 Speaker 1: who opposed him got richer, more famous, more time on TV, 41 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:48,160 Speaker 1: which is what they really want. Those three things. Every 42 00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:51,320 Speaker 1: journalist who spoke out against him was advancing their careers, 43 00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 1: and we were supposed to think that somehow Trump was 44 00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:57,840 Speaker 1: so much of the establishment and so much of the 45 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:03,519 Speaker 1: swamp arrayed against him, was going to seize control, authoritarian 46 00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:07,120 Speaker 1: power forever. That's what they told us. But that didn't happen, 47 00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:10,919 Speaker 1: did it. Now. There was no seizure of power. There 48 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:16,560 Speaker 1: was just the peaceful transition that we've seen. And now 49 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:21,520 Speaker 1: we have a Joe Biden administration that is going to 50 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:25,880 Speaker 1: have no pushback from the people whose jobs are supposed 51 00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:31,800 Speaker 1: to be speaking truth to power. Dissent is no longer patriotic. 52 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 1: You can be assured of that. In fact, if you 53 00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 1: disagree with the Biden administration, you will be called things 54 00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 1: like a COVID denier. You'll be called a white supremacist, 55 00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:49,640 Speaker 1: a racist, a mask denier, an insurrectionist. Even they'll throw 56 00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 1: everything they can at you, and you have to be 57 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:57,240 Speaker 1: prepared for that. This is now the future of this country. 58 00:03:57,240 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 1: This is where we are. I'm happy to hear that. 59 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:04,640 Speaker 1: And Trump is planning to continue to spread the message 60 00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 1: and in some ways may even grow even more powerful 61 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 1: in immedia sense than he has been up to this point. 62 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:17,159 Speaker 1: Depends on what choices that what choices he makes. Here, 63 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 1: he is saying he's always going to be in the 64 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:23,560 Speaker 1: fight for us. Play five. I will always fight for you. 65 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:28,279 Speaker 1: I will be watching, I will be listening, and I 66 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 1: will tell you that the future of this country has 67 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:37,239 Speaker 1: never been better. I wish the new administration great luck 68 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:41,560 Speaker 1: and great success. I think they'll have great success. They 69 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:46,120 Speaker 1: have the foundation to do something really spectacular. And again, 70 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:50,560 Speaker 1: we put it in a position like it's never been before. 71 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:56,680 Speaker 1: Despite the worst plague to hit since I guess you'd say, 72 00:04:56,800 --> 00:05:01,359 Speaker 1: nineteen seventeen, over one hundred years ago. And despite that, 73 00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 1: despite that, the things that we've done have been just incredible. 74 00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 1: And I couldn't have done done it without you. There 75 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:16,760 Speaker 1: will be no honeymoon between Trump supporters and this Biden administration. 76 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:21,599 Speaker 1: It will not exist. They won't allow it to. You've 77 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:25,279 Speaker 1: already been told that the price of your freedoms, the 78 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:28,920 Speaker 1: price of your rights, is submit or face the consequences. 79 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:33,880 Speaker 1: Submit or be d platformed, be boycotted, have your business destroyed, 80 00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:38,440 Speaker 1: your reputation ruined. We are all now supposed to think 81 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:44,719 Speaker 1: that what Joe Biden, this almost eighty year old middling 82 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:49,240 Speaker 1: mediocrity from Delaware, is really going to be the guy 83 00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 1: that turns the whole country around. You look at the 84 00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:56,440 Speaker 1: initial things that are being done here, the orders that 85 00:05:56,480 --> 00:06:00,280 Speaker 1: he's putting out, and it's obviously meant to erase what 86 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 1: Trump had done as quickly as possible. So that's the 87 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:06,240 Speaker 1: problem with executive orders. They're only as good as long 88 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:10,760 Speaker 1: as that's the executive you've got. But I'm much more 89 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:15,680 Speaker 1: concerned about a culture now that has at its core, 90 00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:19,839 Speaker 1: a political culture that has at its core not only 91 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 1: are Trump supporters out of power and to be disdained, 92 00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:26,360 Speaker 1: but they are enemies of the state. That's what the 93 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:29,720 Speaker 1: rhetoric in recent days has been Trump supporters, Trump voters. 94 00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:32,719 Speaker 1: I'm not talking about a few specific radicals or a 95 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:37,279 Speaker 1: few specific crazies who have done bad and illegal things. 96 00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 1: And as we know, they exist on both sides of 97 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 1: the aisle. And there's been a whole lot more of 98 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:44,039 Speaker 1: that from the left then there has been from the 99 00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:47,200 Speaker 1: right in the last four years. But they will not 100 00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:52,000 Speaker 1: view it that way. Of course, they will not agree 101 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 1: with us that the left poses now a truth that 102 00:06:56,120 --> 00:07:01,560 Speaker 1: threat of authoritarianism. Instead, what are going to do? They're 103 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:04,800 Speaker 1: going to leverage the apparatus of the state to make 104 00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 1: sure that we can't even discuss what a not up 105 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 1: for the job cognitively declining absurdity Joe Biden is and 106 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:16,840 Speaker 1: if you even bring this up, they're going to say 107 00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 1: that you're basically the equivalent of somebody who wants to 108 00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:22,880 Speaker 1: overthrow the United States government. The way that they have 109 00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:26,840 Speaker 1: approached this the spite, you'll notice that there's not a 110 00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:30,320 Speaker 1: lot of happiness among Democrats. Here and there. You may 111 00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 1: see some celebration. I know today there's pomp and circumstances, 112 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:37,960 Speaker 1: but what you're really seeing is a relief that they 113 00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 1: have that they can finally unleash their rage. The Democrat 114 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:48,760 Speaker 1: mindset now instead of being all happy and talking about 115 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 1: what a great future we're all going to have now 116 00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:51,520 Speaker 1: that the media is going to do some of that, 117 00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:55,400 Speaker 1: to be sure, but the overwhelming feeling that they seem 118 00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:58,880 Speaker 1: to be showing all the rest of us is like 119 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:04,120 Speaker 1: a dog that has been on a leash and in 120 00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 1: a cage that is now let loose to go and 121 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:13,680 Speaker 1: bite whomever. They are angry about what has happened for 122 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:16,440 Speaker 1: the last four years. They are angry about all the 123 00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:19,280 Speaker 1: terrible things that Trump did, and I wish we hadn't 124 00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 1: had the last three months we had of the Trump presidency, 125 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:24,440 Speaker 1: because it has added a lot of field of the fire. 126 00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:27,440 Speaker 1: It has made things much more difficult, at least in 127 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:32,880 Speaker 1: the short term, to continue on and support a MAGA agenda. 128 00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:34,600 Speaker 1: I don't even know if that term will really be 129 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:39,319 Speaker 1: used anymore. People are talking about Trump is m without Trump, 130 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:42,439 Speaker 1: They're talking about who the future of the party may be. 131 00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:46,240 Speaker 1: I don't believe that's where the conversation would be if 132 00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:49,000 Speaker 1: we had not gone through the last three months the 133 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:52,760 Speaker 1: way that we had. Just remember this, at the end 134 00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:57,400 Speaker 1: of the day, you are what you do and what 135 00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:01,160 Speaker 1: you stand for, and that doesn't change because of who 136 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:04,720 Speaker 1: the president is. It doesn't change because the Democrats manage 137 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:08,679 Speaker 1: to squeak out of victory in the Senate or maintain 138 00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:11,679 Speaker 1: their control under Nancy Pelosi in the House. They can't 139 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:14,440 Speaker 1: change who you are, what you stand for, or what 140 00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 1: you do. So just stick to your principles, be patriots, 141 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,840 Speaker 1: support those who share your values and care about the 142 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:28,240 Speaker 1: country in the way that you do, and be prepared 143 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:31,720 Speaker 1: for what's coming. This is not going to be pleasant. 144 00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 1: I would be lying to you if I've set otherwise. 145 00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:37,599 Speaker 1: The Democrats are going to settle scores. They're going to 146 00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:42,280 Speaker 1: make examples. They are going to unleash the wokeness on 147 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 1: all of us. But we have been through worse and 148 00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:50,200 Speaker 1: we will get to better times. Do not forget that today. 149 00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 1: And just when you can think back to those moments 150 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:55,360 Speaker 1: in twenty eighteen and twenty nineteen when I would tell 151 00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:58,320 Speaker 1: listeners of this show, this is about as good as 152 00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:01,720 Speaker 1: it's going to get in this country. Enjoy it. I 153 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:05,320 Speaker 1: hope you savored those moments, because now we're on the 154 00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:09,439 Speaker 1: other side of the equation. It's time to get ready, 155 00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:15,640 Speaker 1: shields high. This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast.

Seventy four million Americans 157 00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:23,880 Speaker 1: ought not to be slandered based on the action of 158 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:26,840 Speaker 1: a couple thousand who participate in a violent mob at 159 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,600 Speaker 1: the capital two weeks ago. And because a violent mob 160 00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:32,480 Speaker 1: attack the capital two weeks ago, that doesn't mean that 161 00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 1: they should have their view censored. It doesn't mean they 162 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:36,680 Speaker 1: should be at risk of losing their job or having 163 00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:39,880 Speaker 1: their business boycotted, losing their slots and high schools or 164 00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:42,640 Speaker 1: colleges that choose selectively doesn't mean that they should have 165 00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:45,240 Speaker 1: to pay higher taxes or open their borders or defund 166 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:48,079 Speaker 1: their police. That is crazy and it is a complete 167 00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:52,080 Speaker 1: non secretary. But the Democrats realize that that agenda is unpopular. 168 00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:54,680 Speaker 1: But they also have all the other commanding heights of 169 00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:58,080 Speaker 1: our society, from the media, to education to entertainment in 170 00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:00,719 Speaker 1: their corner. What those people need, with those seventy four 171 00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:03,520 Speaker 1: million people who voted for the president, voted for Republicans 172 00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:07,720 Speaker 1: need or Republicans and conservatives in the Congress, in the 173 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:10,920 Speaker 1: state legislatures to stand up for their rights. And I 174 00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:14,319 Speaker 1: promise you I will do that, let's hope. So it's 175 00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:16,440 Speaker 1: going to be on all of us. Now, that's what 176 00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:19,200 Speaker 1: I think people are recognizing today. Trump is not going 177 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:25,080 Speaker 1: to swoop in and save us from the insane leftist stuff. 178 00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:28,920 Speaker 1: Trump is not going to be the one who's just 179 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 1: setting the national news agenda day in and day out. 180 00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:34,800 Speaker 1: He won't be able to slap down the fake news 181 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:39,120 Speaker 1: with one tweet. Now, it's on all of us. Sure, 182 00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:42,200 Speaker 1: he'll have a voice and continue to have a lot 183 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:45,440 Speaker 1: of people who support him. And but it's going to 184 00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:49,120 Speaker 1: be different now. You know that. I know that, And 185 00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 1: we are now as a movement of conservatives, we are 186 00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:58,120 Speaker 1: now on our own effectively. I mean, we could come together, 187 00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:02,679 Speaker 1: but I'm saying that we don't have a leader of 188 00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:06,360 Speaker 1: the Republican Party at the current moment. We just have 189 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:10,520 Speaker 1: to continue to push and do everything that we can 190 00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:16,360 Speaker 1: to hold back the torrent of madness that I think 191 00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:18,679 Speaker 1: is going to descend upon the country. Remember, it's not 192 00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 1: only Trump derangement syndrome that we have to be aware of. 193 00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:26,120 Speaker 1: It's also a year unlike any other in my lifetime 194 00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:29,440 Speaker 1: and certainly in living memory, where we've gone through a 195 00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:33,480 Speaker 1: global pandemic. People are angry. I'll even tell you I'm 196 00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:37,559 Speaker 1: more short tempered than I have been in a long time, 197 00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:41,440 Speaker 1: just because being in a very blue city in a 198 00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 1: very blue state over what's happened in the last twelve 199 00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:47,400 Speaker 1: months has really shown that you will suffer if you 200 00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:51,480 Speaker 1: let the authoritarian left run your life. You will suffer 201 00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:54,880 Speaker 1: if they are in charge. And a lot of people, 202 00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:58,000 Speaker 1: even if they like those policies, have recognized that we've 203 00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 1: just been through a miserable year year with four hundred 204 00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:06,559 Speaker 1: thousand COVID deaths, endless lockdowns, all this shifting advice and 205 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 1: mandates about mitigation measures, all this stuff. It's a lot 206 00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:14,680 Speaker 1: of anger out there I wish I could say that 207 00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:19,600 Speaker 1: the Democrat push would be for one of of prosperity 208 00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:23,800 Speaker 1: and just joy at what is their newfound power now. 209 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:26,160 Speaker 1: But I really do believe that vengeance is going to 210 00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:27,920 Speaker 1: be much higher up on the mind of a lot 211 00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:32,000 Speaker 1: of the political operatives, the senior administration officials. I hope 212 00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 1: I'm wrong. You know, there are some things where I 213 00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:38,080 Speaker 1: can tell you straight up. My fondest wish is that 214 00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:40,640 Speaker 1: what I'm telling you turns out to be entirely untrue. 215 00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 1: That Democrats are the bigger men. So are we even 216 00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 1: allowed to say, oh, the bigger man are the bigger 217 00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:51,960 Speaker 1: non gender specific, non binary, gender non specific people, the 218 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:58,040 Speaker 1: bigger that they're the bigger Homo sapiens. Is that what 219 00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:01,000 Speaker 1: we're allowed? What are we supposed to say? Get ready 220 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:05,440 Speaker 1: for a lot of that language policing, a lot of 221 00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:09,720 Speaker 1: checking in on the loyalty of government officials at also 222 00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:13,079 Speaker 1: asking more and more questions about who you voted for 223 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:16,400 Speaker 1: at whatever company you work for, because it's not that 224 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:18,760 Speaker 1: you were a Republican and voted for Donald Trump, it's wait, 225 00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:22,000 Speaker 1: you supported the insurrectionist. Maybe you need to go talk 226 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 1: to hr. Wait, you are a company that advertises on 227 00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:32,680 Speaker 1: Fox News or a conservative network of some kind. Maybe 228 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:35,760 Speaker 1: you need to be threatened with a boycott. You'll notice 229 00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:38,840 Speaker 1: this didn't happen in twenty sixteen. When Trump came into office. 230 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:41,680 Speaker 1: It was all right, we got an agenda, let's go 231 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:44,800 Speaker 1: after it, let's do some things. It's got some taxes, 232 00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:49,840 Speaker 1: get some executive orders going. But it wasn't a purge. 233 00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:54,359 Speaker 1: Nobody really thought that Democrats were going to lose their livelihoods, 234 00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:59,000 Speaker 1: their businesses, their freedoms. The First Amendment is under greater 235 00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:03,800 Speaker 1: assault now it has been in my lifetime. There are 236 00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:08,360 Speaker 1: very intelligent people, very serious observers of American life, who 237 00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:13,800 Speaker 1: are writing about a new war on terror against conservatives 238 00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:18,000 Speaker 1: in this country and the expansion of the police state 239 00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:23,040 Speaker 1: to encompass what is clearly not already criminal activity. Why 240 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:25,640 Speaker 1: would they be talking about this, Why would they be saying, 241 00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:28,080 Speaker 1: we need to expand surveillance, we need to we need 242 00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:31,400 Speaker 1: to look at legislation to address the address what exactly 243 00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:35,520 Speaker 1: everything that happened at the Capitol Hill riot that should 244 00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:39,080 Speaker 1: not have happened, was already very illegal and people are 245 00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:43,240 Speaker 1: facing very long criminal sentences for it. So what exactly 246 00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:47,680 Speaker 1: has to be addressed. You'll see you'll see who's in charge. 247 00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:50,960 Speaker 1: You'll see how the deep state now rises to the surface. 248 00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:55,640 Speaker 1: It's been operating somewhat in the shadows for the last 249 00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:58,520 Speaker 1: four years, but all of a sudden, now the people 250 00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:00,600 Speaker 1: that are going to be calling the shots will be 251 00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:05,239 Speaker 1: folks at the CIA, and the FBI and the EPA 252 00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:07,520 Speaker 1: and you name it, who think that climate change is 253 00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:10,400 Speaker 1: an existential threat. And if you don't sign on to that, 254 00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:14,640 Speaker 1: there's something wrong with you. Oh you you can't be trusted. 255 00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:18,320 Speaker 1: You don't believe that any public policy that we think 256 00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 1: is necessary to address the growing threat of climate change 257 00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:24,440 Speaker 1: is inherently justified. You don't you're not down with that. 258 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:29,680 Speaker 1: I don't think we can trust you anymore. What's so fascinating, 259 00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:34,000 Speaker 1: of course, is that the left has created this revisionist history. 260 00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:37,600 Speaker 1: They always talk about McCarthyism. They forget that there were 261 00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:41,040 Speaker 1: in fact communist penetrations of the government, and they were 262 00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:44,840 Speaker 1: all Democrats. Just so you know, it was the Democrats 263 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:47,200 Speaker 1: that the communists found their fellow travelers, and it was 264 00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:52,040 Speaker 1: not staunch patriotic right wingers. That was not how that happened. 265 00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:54,960 Speaker 1: But they talk about it as though this was all 266 00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:57,800 Speaker 1: just a fraud, This was all based in lies, when 267 00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:01,160 Speaker 1: in truth there were a lot there were Communist penetrations, 268 00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:03,640 Speaker 1: including at a very high level Soviet penetrations of the 269 00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:09,240 Speaker 1: United States government. And now they're going to do the great, 270 00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:12,560 Speaker 1: the great Conservative scare, if you will, right, instead of 271 00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:15,960 Speaker 1: a Red scare, the Maga scare. They're going to look 272 00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:18,159 Speaker 1: to find ways to get rid of it because it 273 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:21,800 Speaker 1: was also the Trump culture. It was also those moments 274 00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:25,680 Speaker 1: where all of a sudden, people felt like they had 275 00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:29,600 Speaker 1: a hat to wear, a slogan to chant, and people 276 00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:34,119 Speaker 1: around them who shared their beliefs and approach politics with them. Joy. 277 00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:38,400 Speaker 1: If anything, that's one of the most powerful legacies of 278 00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:42,280 Speaker 1: the four years of Trumpet office. But Democrats want to 279 00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:45,040 Speaker 1: get rid of all of that now. They want to 280 00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:49,280 Speaker 1: make America feel shameful for wanting to make America great. 281 00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:54,240 Speaker 1: You're listening to the Buck Sexton Show podcast. Make sure 282 00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 1: you subscribe to the podcast on the iHeartRadio app or 283 00:17:57,320 --> 00:18:00,480 Speaker 1: wherever you get your podcasts. To Trumps and he may 284 00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:02,680 Speaker 1: be drawing to a close, But the dysfunction, the corruption, 285 00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:05,800 Speaker 1: the authoritarianism, and the moral rot Trump exposed within the 286 00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:08,359 Speaker 1: gopn and our system will remain and we can't just 287 00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:10,199 Speaker 1: let it go. We got to fix it and we 288 00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:12,600 Speaker 1: have to hold accountable to people responsible for it, from 289 00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 1: the top all the way down. Otherwise, this four year 290 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:18,320 Speaker 1: long nightmare we've all lived through could very well happen again. 291 00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:21,720 Speaker 1: Don't you think that if he pardons himself, Sonny, that 292 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:25,720 Speaker 1: admits that he's guilty, and then when the impeachment in 293 00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:28,240 Speaker 1: the Semmit comes up, what are they supposed to do 294 00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:31,119 Speaker 1: with that? They have to convict him. He himself is 295 00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:34,880 Speaker 1: saying I'm guilty, absolutely absolutely, But his defense, I think, 296 00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:37,000 Speaker 1: is going to be, well, this is a witch hunt. 297 00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:38,960 Speaker 1: This is a witch hunt against me, So of course 298 00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:43,240 Speaker 1: I have to try to pardon myself because everyone's out 299 00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:46,040 Speaker 1: against against me. And guess what, seventy four million people 300 00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:49,320 Speaker 1: are going to believe that because they've been brainwashed. Joy, 301 00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:52,240 Speaker 1: I really believe that they have been brainwashed by this 302 00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:57,639 Speaker 1: misinformation campaign over the past four years. Can't you feel 303 00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:01,919 Speaker 1: all the healing and the unity. Oh, these Democrats they 304 00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:04,560 Speaker 1: want to let bygones be bygones, don't they They want 305 00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:06,600 Speaker 1: to just be friends now. They want to get along 306 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:11,920 Speaker 1: and everything's gonna be just fine. Not so much the 307 00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:15,119 Speaker 1: idea that they're gonna hold people accountable. They're really sticking 308 00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:17,320 Speaker 1: to this one, aren't they. And I think they're gonna 309 00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:19,879 Speaker 1: they're gonna try it. That just means vindictiveness. It means 310 00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:24,600 Speaker 1: find your political enemies and make their lives difficult, make 311 00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:27,760 Speaker 1: them miserable, do whatever you have to do to punish 312 00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:32,159 Speaker 1: them for wrong think. Remember they're saying Trump is the authoritarian. 313 00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:37,720 Speaker 1: They've had a peaceful trans transfer of power. Republicans are saying, okay, 314 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:41,080 Speaker 1: Joe Biden's the president. We're not doing the Russias stole 315 00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:43,520 Speaker 1: the election thing. That's what they did for four years. 316 00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:48,480 Speaker 1: Republicans now have said, all right, you know, Electoral College certified, 317 00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:51,159 Speaker 1: it's done, it's over with. I know there was the 318 00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 1: right of Capitol Hill and it was awful, and we 319 00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:57,080 Speaker 1: see now just how much the left is using that 320 00:19:57,160 --> 00:20:00,200 Speaker 1: awful incident to try to bash all Trump supporters. But 321 00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:03,879 Speaker 1: now now we're we're where they said they wanted to be, 322 00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:10,200 Speaker 1: with the Democrats in charge of everything, basically, and sure enough, 323 00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:13,440 Speaker 1: instead of saying we're just gonna show you guys what 324 00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:17,200 Speaker 1: good governance looks like, it's let's go find people who 325 00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:21,600 Speaker 1: need to be punished. Let's blacklist them from jobs. Let's 326 00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:24,400 Speaker 1: prevent them from being able to speak online. I mean 327 00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:27,240 Speaker 1: the social media and the tech purge. I think it's 328 00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:29,760 Speaker 1: only gonna get worse because now they've got cover from 329 00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:33,120 Speaker 1: the federal government. Now they've got people at the very 330 00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:36,320 Speaker 1: top of the government hierarchy. You're gonna say, yeah, that's 331 00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:41,920 Speaker 1: how the First Amendment works. Crush people that you don't like. Great, Oh, oh, 332 00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:44,800 Speaker 1: I'm sorry. Companies can do whatever they want, they say 333 00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:48,159 Speaker 1: for this, but go bake that cake and write on 334 00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:50,680 Speaker 1: it whatever. Whatever. The person who wants the cake tells 335 00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 1: you to write on it. You have to do that. 336 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:54,800 Speaker 1: If you have if you have to write there is 337 00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:58,040 Speaker 1: no God. God is false. You have to write that 338 00:20:58,119 --> 00:21:00,960 Speaker 1: on a birthday cake. You better do that or else. 339 00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:04,200 Speaker 1: Oh I'm so oh that's a first to oh wait 340 00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:07,840 Speaker 1: what Oh, companies or private individuals can't do whatever they 341 00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:10,120 Speaker 1: want in their business. It turns out, isn't that interesting. 342 00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:15,680 Speaker 1: It's not quite that clear. The expansion of the term 343 00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:20,320 Speaker 1: insurrection now to include just saying things that the Democrats 344 00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:23,960 Speaker 1: don't like. This will be abused. They're doing this for 345 00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:27,119 Speaker 1: a reason. It's not just some catharsis. Because they have 346 00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:32,000 Speaker 1: all this pent up, just this this bile. They're overflowing 347 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:34,600 Speaker 1: with it after four years of Trump. They can't help themselves. 348 00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:37,600 Speaker 1: I mean, Sonny Houston. They're on the view saying Trump 349 00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:42,000 Speaker 1: Trump supporters have been brainwashed. They just Democrats just voted 350 00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:46,840 Speaker 1: for Joe Biden to be president. I don't care that 351 00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:51,280 Speaker 1: he is president. He's a loser. We all know it. 352 00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:54,520 Speaker 1: This is not an impressive person. This is not a 353 00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:57,600 Speaker 1: person with leadership skills. This is a guy who just 354 00:21:57,640 --> 00:22:00,320 Speaker 1: showed up and did what he had to do to 355 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:04,359 Speaker 1: play the system and contribute very little for a very 356 00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:08,840 Speaker 1: long time. But they could make him president because he 357 00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:11,560 Speaker 1: wasn't what the Democrat Party really is. Don't you see? 358 00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:15,760 Speaker 1: The whole thing is a head fake. Joe Biden isn't 359 00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:18,880 Speaker 1: really symbolic of what the Democrat Party's all about. Now. 360 00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:24,240 Speaker 1: He's not woke, he's not leftist, he's not radical, but 361 00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:27,320 Speaker 1: he's also not really anything. So he'll do whatever the 362 00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:31,080 Speaker 1: woke leftist want him to where and when he can, 363 00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:36,639 Speaker 1: and he gives He gives the corporations less anxiety because 364 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:39,000 Speaker 1: big tech and big companies are gonna be just fine 365 00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:43,359 Speaker 1: inner a Biden presidency. Oh here, Amazon, Google. You know, 366 00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:47,800 Speaker 1: if you're you're somebody that's you know, that's a that's 367 00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:51,200 Speaker 1: a winning proposition. I'm sure if you've got investments in 368 00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:54,440 Speaker 1: some of these major companies out there under a Biden presidency, 369 00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:58,879 Speaker 1: they're gonna do just fine. Small business has been decimated 370 00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:02,199 Speaker 1: by the pandemic and lockdowns that Democrats have largely pushed, 371 00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:05,800 Speaker 1: and it's not going to come back because small business 372 00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:10,280 Speaker 1: is too autonomous. There's too much liberty involved in somebody 373 00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:14,040 Speaker 1: running their own commercial venture, providing products or services to 374 00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:17,320 Speaker 1: a public that wants them in a lawful and productive 375 00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:22,440 Speaker 1: Fashion's that they don't. They want megacorporations that can have 376 00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:26,560 Speaker 1: D and I specialists and on every floor of the building. 377 00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:31,600 Speaker 1: They're gonna want HR departments to be the shock troops 378 00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:35,359 Speaker 1: of wokeism, and they're gonna get it. They're gonna pass 379 00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:40,120 Speaker 1: federal legislation and executive orders that create these new concepts 380 00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:43,399 Speaker 1: around equity. You know what equity is. We tell people 381 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:46,040 Speaker 1: what they get and we tell other people what they 382 00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:50,119 Speaker 1: don't get based on ethnicity, gender, skin color, you name it. 383 00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:55,080 Speaker 1: That's right, that's what we're definitely heading for. I never mind, 384 00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:59,000 Speaker 1: of course, the likelihood here that we may have a 385 00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:03,159 Speaker 1: major challenge facing a Biden administration that has Joe Biden 386 00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:06,320 Speaker 1: in charge. This guy just isn't up for the job. 387 00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:08,879 Speaker 1: And I know that he won, or you know, I 388 00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:12,040 Speaker 1: know that he's president, and he's not up for the job. 389 00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:16,760 Speaker 1: So what does that mean? Make note now of how 390 00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:22,320 Speaker 1: journalists and the the the corporate media will sneer, They 391 00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:25,280 Speaker 1: will sneer at anyone who even raises the prospect of 392 00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:31,840 Speaker 1: Kamala Harris taking over for Joe Biden. And yet I 393 00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:35,920 Speaker 1: think we all understand that there's a very serious possibility 394 00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:39,800 Speaker 1: just based on age. It's this isn't some outlandish theory. 395 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:41,720 Speaker 1: I mean, the guy is gonna be eighty by the 396 00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:46,280 Speaker 1: mid terms, you know, so we're gonna have somebody who's 397 00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:50,119 Speaker 1: getting into his early and then mid eighties, especially if 398 00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:53,240 Speaker 1: he goes into a second term. Come on, now, Kamala 399 00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:56,680 Speaker 1: at some point just gets to be president. Isn't that interesting? 400 00:24:56,800 --> 00:25:01,840 Speaker 1: Isn't that a fascinating way for this to continue on? 401 00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:06,119 Speaker 1: So I think that we have to just take a 402 00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:09,600 Speaker 1: moment here, take a breather, and recognize that we are 403 00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:13,720 Speaker 1: going to be dealing with a very a very emboldened 404 00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:18,639 Speaker 1: and aggressive Democrat left now and they could. You know, 405 00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:20,959 Speaker 1: they have an opportunity here. It's all been set up, 406 00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:23,320 Speaker 1: and the President really alluded to this in his closing remarks. 407 00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:28,760 Speaker 1: With the vaccines already being distributed, with the worst of 408 00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:33,199 Speaker 1: winter now pretty much behind us, we're going to be 409 00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:36,800 Speaker 1: entering a phase here where things could be really good 410 00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:40,399 Speaker 1: for the country. You have the reopening of you have 411 00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:44,159 Speaker 1: the return of basic freedoms, but no, what you're going 412 00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:51,200 Speaker 1: to get is more mask mania, lockdown, lockdown demands and 413 00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:54,920 Speaker 1: then only on their timetable and their schedule. Only when 414 00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:58,000 Speaker 1: the Democrats say so, can you start to have some 415 00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:01,200 Speaker 1: aspects of your life back. They like this control. Oh, 416 00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:03,320 Speaker 1: and they're going to reassert it for other things too. 417 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:07,760 Speaker 1: You don't think that they believe that climate emergency is 418 00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:11,200 Speaker 1: enough to violate the Constitution, don't You don't think they 419 00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:14,560 Speaker 1: believe that there will be ways for them to expand 420 00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:18,840 Speaker 1: on the de dictatorial powers that Democrat governors like Cuomo 421 00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:21,439 Speaker 1: and Newsom have taken into their hands here because of 422 00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:24,040 Speaker 1: an emergency. But you think this is the only emergency, 423 00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:27,240 Speaker 1: Just wait till they declare a gun violence emergency. And 424 00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:30,120 Speaker 1: they did, and they say there's a mandatory statewide buy 425 00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:36,480 Speaker 1: back in effect for certain weapons too extreme, You say, no, 426 00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:41,120 Speaker 1: it is not. Can't say it's too extreme. When Democrats 427 00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:44,040 Speaker 1: are running around telling everybody that they needed to make 428 00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:47,640 Speaker 1: sure that the National Guard current, that the National Guard 429 00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:50,760 Speaker 1: that was that was assigned to guard the Biden inauguration, 430 00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:55,520 Speaker 1: twenty seven thousand or so of them needed to be 431 00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:59,880 Speaker 1: vetted for pro Trump sympathies, as if that's that's equivalent 432 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:05,640 Speaker 1: al Qaeda jihadism, right, the ideology of a global jihad 433 00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:10,000 Speaker 1: being waged for the the creation of a caliphate to 434 00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:15,000 Speaker 1: dominate all people's, all religions for all time. Yeah, being 435 00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:18,639 Speaker 1: a Trump supporter, it's just like that. Here's DC's Mayor 436 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:22,040 Speaker 1: Bowser who's totally on board. There's the mayor washing DC 437 00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:24,840 Speaker 1: totally onboard. Yeah, we got to make sure there's no no, 438 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:27,560 Speaker 1: there was nobody in the National Guard who, you know, 439 00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:29,399 Speaker 1: too much of a Trump support, too much of a 440 00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:34,840 Speaker 1: Trump radical play forward. When you have guards coming, guardsmen 441 00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:37,720 Speaker 1: and women coming from all over the country at this time, 442 00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:43,040 Speaker 1: I do think that it is is prudent to make 443 00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:48,200 Speaker 1: sure that they're being vetted and that anybody who cannot 444 00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:57,399 Speaker 1: pledge allegiance to um to their missions and maybe pulled 445 00:27:57,400 --> 00:28:00,400 Speaker 1: by other views. Needs not only to be removed from 446 00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:02,960 Speaker 1: this duty. They need to be removed from the guard, 447 00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:06,440 Speaker 1: kicked out of the military for now. You could say, 448 00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:08,159 Speaker 1: oh no, they would only do this if you were 449 00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:12,480 Speaker 1: a real extremist plotting violence. You believe that you think 450 00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:16,320 Speaker 1: that they're gonna let let bygones be bygones. Now. You 451 00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:20,040 Speaker 1: got a lot of hashtag maga up on your Facebook page. 452 00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:23,119 Speaker 1: They want to give that one a second thought. You 453 00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:27,440 Speaker 1: got a lot of Trump photos and Trump paraphernalia all 454 00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:31,840 Speaker 1: over your social media accounts or your office cubical for 455 00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:36,360 Speaker 1: that matter. Democrats want you to know they're not forgetting 456 00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:41,600 Speaker 1: this one, but I'm not forgetting it either. We remember 457 00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:43,880 Speaker 1: who we are, what we stand for, and what we're 458 00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:46,280 Speaker 1: trying to do for this country, and that doesn't change 459 00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:49,640 Speaker 1: because of one election cycle. It doesn't change because of 460 00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:54,400 Speaker 1: the departure of one politician from office. Our fight continues on. 461 00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:57,200 Speaker 1: We may have to play some defense for a while, 462 00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:00,600 Speaker 1: but it will only be a while. This is the 463 00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:04,640 Speaker 1: Buck Sexton Show Podcast. Join the conversation and message buck 464 00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:09,520 Speaker 1: on Facebook, Instagram, or email Team Bucket iHeartMedia dot com. 465 00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:12,120 Speaker 1: He may read it on the show. My fear is 466 00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:17,240 Speaker 1: that if Republicans, particularly Republican leadership, goes along with this impeachment, 467 00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:20,280 Speaker 1: they'll destroy the party. And so I think it's a 468 00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:24,120 Speaker 1: huge mistake. I think it's a hugely partisan exercise on 469 00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:26,800 Speaker 1: the part of the Democrats, but for Republicans who go 470 00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:30,160 Speaker 1: along with it, I think they'll destroy our party. Donald 471 00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:32,320 Speaker 1: Trump isn't everything in the party, but he did bring 472 00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:34,160 Speaker 1: a lot of people to the party, and I think 473 00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:37,120 Speaker 1: it's a huge mistake for people to say, oh, well, 474 00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:39,600 Speaker 1: we're just going to impeach him, and that all of 475 00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:41,640 Speaker 1: the blue collar workers that he brought to our party 476 00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:43,800 Speaker 1: are going to stay. No. I think quite a few 477 00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:47,000 Speaker 1: them will be unhappy. So I hope our leadership will 478 00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:51,400 Speaker 1: think twice about these undercurrents and rumblings about them actually 479 00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:54,720 Speaker 1: voting for impeachment. I sure hope it doesn't happen. It's 480 00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:59,520 Speaker 1: a disaster if they do that. Republicans should absolutely not. 481 00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:03,600 Speaker 1: Joe Biden is now president. Why are we even Why 482 00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:07,920 Speaker 1: is there even a conversation about continuing in the Congress 483 00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:13,160 Speaker 1: to take punitive action against a now ex president. What 484 00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:17,479 Speaker 1: is the point of this, What does it serve oh 485 00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:22,840 Speaker 1: to allow for a cleansing of the Republican Party, right, 486 00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:26,240 Speaker 1: they have to get rid of the moral rot, as 487 00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:31,360 Speaker 1: one late night alleged comedian says, they have to make 488 00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:36,800 Speaker 1: sure that what should we be taking advice about our party, 489 00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:39,960 Speaker 1: about the Republican Party from the likes of Harry Reid. 490 00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:43,160 Speaker 1: Here he is sixteen. I all things, working with McConnell 491 00:30:43,240 --> 00:30:45,680 Speaker 1: for many years, I have he can be accused of 492 00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:48,000 Speaker 1: a lot of things, but one of them he's not done. 493 00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:52,160 Speaker 1: And I think he realizes that Trump is a drag 494 00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:55,240 Speaker 1: on the Republican Party. And I think that that was 495 00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:59,640 Speaker 1: the opening salvo for Mitch McConnell to disengage from Trump 496 00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:03,320 Speaker 1: to try to re establish a rebrand the Republican Party. 497 00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:07,040 Speaker 1: Trump is a dragon the Republican Party, according to Harry Reid, 498 00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:10,280 Speaker 1: which means you definitely don't want to impeach this guy 499 00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:13,600 Speaker 1: and go through that whole removal process so that he 500 00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:15,600 Speaker 1: can never be in office again. You know, if the 501 00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:18,960 Speaker 1: Senate has this trial. This is wrong on so many levels, 502 00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:21,440 Speaker 1: But I always tell you don't take advice from your enemies, 503 00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:26,520 Speaker 1: don't don't do what they want you to do. And 504 00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:31,280 Speaker 1: this right now is a perfect example of a situation 505 00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:36,440 Speaker 1: like that. It would be. It would be absurd, absolutely 506 00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:41,120 Speaker 1: absurd at this stage to do it. It's also unconstitutional. 507 00:31:42,240 --> 00:31:50,680 Speaker 1: It's also just unnecessarily divisive within our own party. Trump 508 00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:53,520 Speaker 1: is gone. He left. Okay, they didn't have to send 509 00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:56,280 Speaker 1: in squat teams to the Oval Office to drag him 510 00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:58,760 Speaker 1: out or anything. All that crazy crap that people were saying. 511 00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:01,360 Speaker 1: That didn't happen. He's gone, he left the Oval Office. 512 00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:06,600 Speaker 1: All right, Well, now what we're gonna repudiate everything? Yeah, 513 00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:11,800 Speaker 1: the Trump presidency wasn't perfect. No presidency is. And in 514 00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:14,120 Speaker 1: the end, yes, I got Matt, I was. I was 515 00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:18,440 Speaker 1: angry at this administration for what happened after the election. 516 00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:24,280 Speaker 1: I will admit that I was an m very annoyed 517 00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:26,840 Speaker 1: about what they did and what and what went on. 518 00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:28,880 Speaker 1: I'm talking about from the administration. I'm not talking about 519 00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:34,000 Speaker 1: the actual rioters. I've already spoken about that. But the 520 00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:36,680 Speaker 1: first three years of the Trump presidency were in a 521 00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:42,160 Speaker 1: lot of ways just great, very good policymaking decisions, good 522 00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:45,480 Speaker 1: on trade, good on the border, good on immigration. You 523 00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:47,920 Speaker 1: go down the list of all of Trump's accomplishments, the 524 00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:53,000 Speaker 1: things that were done. Some excellent judicial picks, a lot 525 00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:56,160 Speaker 1: of excellent judicial picks, and of course a number that 526 00:32:56,200 --> 00:33:01,280 Speaker 1: went to the Supreme Court. Kavanaugh and Amy coneyt ACB 527 00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:03,640 Speaker 1: may end up being one of the greatest things that 528 00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:09,080 Speaker 1: Trump even got done. Kavanaugh perhaps not as much, although 529 00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:13,040 Speaker 1: I still hold to this day that the Kavanaugh hearings 530 00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:18,000 Speaker 1: and what the Democrats, including Vice President Kamala Harris did 531 00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:23,520 Speaker 1: to Brett Kavanaugh, was a moment of clarity, a moment 532 00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:29,720 Speaker 1: of recognition for millions of conservatives across the country. Well, 533 00:33:30,560 --> 00:33:32,160 Speaker 1: a lot more people are going to be getting the 534 00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:36,200 Speaker 1: Kavanaugh treatment now, make no mistake about it. All many 535 00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:42,640 Speaker 1: more people are going to be attacked, maligned, slander, deep platformed, canceled, 536 00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:46,520 Speaker 1: you name it. This is, unfortunately now, the kind of 537 00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:53,160 Speaker 1: political climate. This is a consequence of our elections. Now, 538 00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:56,280 Speaker 1: the Democrats when they win, think that they have a 539 00:33:56,320 --> 00:34:00,320 Speaker 1: free hand to punish people for their wrong idea is 540 00:34:00,680 --> 00:34:02,520 Speaker 1: it's it's not enough to be able to enact the 541 00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:05,720 Speaker 1: policies that they want. They want to be able to humiliate, 542 00:34:06,520 --> 00:34:11,879 Speaker 1: control and force the other side into submission and then 543 00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:16,120 Speaker 1: maybe we can have a conversation and then maybe we 544 00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:22,120 Speaker 1: could have a discussion about unity again. Right first, there 545 00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:24,799 Speaker 1: has to go through this period perhaps let's say a 546 00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:26,239 Speaker 1: year or two of it, you know, up and up 547 00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:31,120 Speaker 1: until the midterms, of removing all remnants of Trumpism from 548 00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:35,319 Speaker 1: not just politics, but public discourse. Everything you're gonna see 549 00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:36,960 Speaker 1: if you've already had some of this, they're gonna see 550 00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:38,800 Speaker 1: stores and in place say we're not even we're not 551 00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:41,520 Speaker 1: going to sell maga gear. I mean, they're they're going 552 00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:45,560 Speaker 1: to try to treat uh, anything that is that is 553 00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:50,879 Speaker 1: directly affiliated with Trump as as some kind of hate 554 00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:54,200 Speaker 1: symbol that they have to if they have to expunge 555 00:34:54,239 --> 00:34:56,000 Speaker 1: into their minds from the culture. So we're the ones 556 00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:58,759 Speaker 1: who have to say, no, you can't do that. This 557 00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:02,440 Speaker 1: isn't the Soviet Union. Libs. Even though you've won this election, 558 00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:05,960 Speaker 1: you're in the freedom hunt.

Where we go from here? What's next 561 00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:19,120 Speaker 1: for the GOP, for the Republican Party, Faithful, the base 562 00:35:19,239 --> 00:35:23,279 Speaker 1: and everything around it, everyone in between. Let's get to 563 00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:26,160 Speaker 1: our friend Rob Smith. Now. He is a veteran and 564 00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:30,480 Speaker 1: author and contributor to the first TV Rob How are 565 00:35:30,520 --> 00:35:37,239 Speaker 1: you feeling today? I'm good man, I'm good aboutself. I mean, 566 00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:41,880 Speaker 1: I'm I'm obviously I'm disappointed for the country, but I 567 00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:45,560 Speaker 1: also understand that we're going to get through this. It'll 568 00:35:45,560 --> 00:35:48,080 Speaker 1: be all right. I hate the phrase it's not the 569 00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:51,439 Speaker 1: end of the world, but it really isn't. But let's 570 00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:54,520 Speaker 1: let's get more constructive than that. I mean, first off, 571 00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:59,279 Speaker 1: what were your feelings about this presidency on its as 572 00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:01,720 Speaker 1: its last has now happened? I mean, he has Nola. 573 00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:05,640 Speaker 1: It is now ex President Trump. What you're feeling about 574 00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:07,400 Speaker 1: the four years? I feel like we should start to 575 00:36:07,440 --> 00:36:11,000 Speaker 1: have a conversation about what really happened here, the good, 576 00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:13,640 Speaker 1: the bad, and the ugly. Yeah. So, look, I did 577 00:36:14,080 --> 00:36:16,880 Speaker 1: an episode of my podcast at Lunches this week. It's 578 00:36:16,920 --> 00:36:20,759 Speaker 1: basically called we all need to end our obsession with 579 00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:22,919 Speaker 1: President Trump, and I think that how we move forward 580 00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:25,719 Speaker 1: as a goop and when we think about really what 581 00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:28,360 Speaker 1: this administration was in the past four years, there have 582 00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:31,400 Speaker 1: been a lot of amazing things that happened. We got 583 00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:34,080 Speaker 1: the best economy that at one point the world had 584 00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:36,880 Speaker 1: ever seen. We had criminal justice reform, we had cutting 585 00:36:36,880 --> 00:36:39,719 Speaker 1: through red tape. We had basically a vaccine for a 586 00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:43,040 Speaker 1: deadly virus that crippled the world in less than a 587 00:36:43,120 --> 00:36:46,719 Speaker 1: year like these are some really really amazing things, and 588 00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:49,520 Speaker 1: I think that as we look back at this presidency, 589 00:36:49,920 --> 00:36:52,279 Speaker 1: we can see some really great things that happened in 590 00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:56,600 Speaker 1: terms of policies, like the policies were great, in terms 591 00:36:56,760 --> 00:37:01,319 Speaker 1: of arguing with no name reporters, in terms of some 592 00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:03,080 Speaker 1: of the tweets, in terms of some of the kind 593 00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:07,880 Speaker 1: of NonStop controversies. I think that we all got a 594 00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:10,759 Speaker 1: little over that towards the end. But I think that 595 00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:13,319 Speaker 1: this is not so much. I think President Trump had 596 00:37:13,440 --> 00:37:14,960 Speaker 1: had a lot to do with it, but it was 597 00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:18,840 Speaker 1: also I mean, he was just frustrated by battling a 598 00:37:19,080 --> 00:37:23,600 Speaker 1: media industry and entertainment industry, so many people who were 599 00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:25,480 Speaker 1: against him, and I think that's where all of that 600 00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:28,080 Speaker 1: stuff came from. But I think in order for us 601 00:37:28,080 --> 00:37:31,000 Speaker 1: to move forward as conservatives, as a Republican Party, I 602 00:37:31,040 --> 00:37:32,600 Speaker 1: think that a lot of us have to get over 603 00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:35,960 Speaker 1: this obsession with President Trump, and by that I mean 604 00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:41,640 Speaker 1: to make one person be the entirety of all of 605 00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:44,040 Speaker 1: our political hopes or all of our political dreams are 606 00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:48,080 Speaker 1: basically the political future other Republican Party is very shortsighted. 607 00:37:48,520 --> 00:37:50,960 Speaker 1: I think that a very strong thing that he said 608 00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:54,160 Speaker 1: during his farewell address was that we built this movement. 609 00:37:54,160 --> 00:37:57,319 Speaker 1: He kept on saying we we we, and I thought 610 00:37:57,360 --> 00:38:00,520 Speaker 1: that was very strategic and that was amazing, because it 611 00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:03,040 Speaker 1: is going to be up to we the people. Whether 612 00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:05,799 Speaker 1: you're a part of the MAGA movement, whether you're just 613 00:38:05,960 --> 00:38:10,160 Speaker 1: a mainstream conservative, whether you're an independent or libertarian who 614 00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:14,279 Speaker 1: just so happens to be attracted to conservative policies, It's 615 00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:16,720 Speaker 1: going to be up to us to take the mantle 616 00:38:16,760 --> 00:38:19,279 Speaker 1: from here on out. And I think that this now 617 00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:23,279 Speaker 1: official Biden presidency is going to give a lot of 618 00:38:23,360 --> 00:38:27,520 Speaker 1: us opportunities to say, look, guys, this is what you wanted, 619 00:38:27,560 --> 00:38:29,759 Speaker 1: and we are going to show you why these policies 620 00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:32,279 Speaker 1: don't work, because, unfortunately, we are going to see it 621 00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:35,880 Speaker 1: over the next four years in real time, why left 622 00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:40,359 Speaker 1: democratic policies do not work. Rob Where do you come 623 00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:43,840 Speaker 1: down on the debate over whether Biden is going to 624 00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:48,440 Speaker 1: be a a moderating force within the Democratic Party. I 625 00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:50,479 Speaker 1: don't think it's fair to call him a moderate, because 626 00:38:50,480 --> 00:38:52,720 Speaker 1: the Democrat Party is not in any way a centrist 627 00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:57,480 Speaker 1: party anymore. But do you think that he'll be because 628 00:38:57,840 --> 00:39:00,960 Speaker 1: essentially he got elected because he didn't he didn't frightened 629 00:39:01,040 --> 00:39:03,560 Speaker 1: certain voters who would be uncomfortable voting for saying I've 630 00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:05,759 Speaker 1: been socialists, right. That was the pat was really the pitch. 631 00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:09,000 Speaker 1: He's been around forever and so he was non threatening 632 00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:12,760 Speaker 1: in a sense. But there is a very radical left, 633 00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:16,080 Speaker 1: not fringe, but now I think we could say vanguard 634 00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:19,600 Speaker 1: in the Democrat Party. Do you think that they're gonna 635 00:39:19,680 --> 00:39:25,400 Speaker 1: have Joe Biden as a moderating influence on their desires 636 00:39:25,600 --> 00:39:27,399 Speaker 1: or is he just going to be a pass through 637 00:39:27,520 --> 00:39:30,360 Speaker 1: for what they want? Essentially? Look, I think he's going 638 00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:31,880 Speaker 1: to be a passing for what they want. And I 639 00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:34,920 Speaker 1: think that he's not gonna stop any of this rhetoric 640 00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:37,480 Speaker 1: that's coming from these far left and I can't even 641 00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:39,600 Speaker 1: say far left media personals and whatever, because these are 642 00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:43,320 Speaker 1: Congress congressmen and women that are saying some pretty insane things. 643 00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:45,440 Speaker 1: Joe Biden's not going to stop them. He's not going 644 00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:47,560 Speaker 1: to be a moderating force to this, because what it 645 00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:49,640 Speaker 1: is is that the left blank of the party sees 646 00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:52,680 Speaker 1: blood in the water. He may not repeat some of 647 00:39:52,680 --> 00:39:54,480 Speaker 1: the stuff that he's not going to stop them from 648 00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:56,520 Speaker 1: saying it. And I don't think that he's going to 649 00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:59,640 Speaker 1: be a very moderating force at all. I think that 650 00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:02,440 Speaker 1: that there are a lot of people that get that 651 00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:04,880 Speaker 1: get a lot of attention via what they say on 652 00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:06,799 Speaker 1: Twitter and what they say on social media. Look at 653 00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:09,319 Speaker 1: AOC looking Corey Bushel and Jamal Bowman, look at all 654 00:40:09,360 --> 00:40:12,080 Speaker 1: of these people. They're very, very far left. And Joe 655 00:40:12,120 --> 00:40:15,320 Speaker 1: Biden is a pretty week leader. As a matter of fact, 656 00:40:15,560 --> 00:40:18,520 Speaker 1: he failed the first test as a leader of Democrat 657 00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:22,239 Speaker 1: Party in order to moderate people when he failed to 658 00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:26,360 Speaker 1: really speak up forcefully about the riots that left America 659 00:40:26,480 --> 00:40:31,000 Speaker 1: in claims over the past summer that were started by 660 00:40:31,280 --> 00:40:34,719 Speaker 1: people on the left and that were cheerleaded by the 661 00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:37,200 Speaker 1: now Vice president Kamala Harris. So is he going to 662 00:40:37,239 --> 00:40:39,920 Speaker 1: be a moderating for us? No, I just absolutely not. 663 00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:42,640 Speaker 1: He's two week of a leader to be a moderating 664 00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:45,320 Speaker 1: for us. Speaking of Rob Smith, he is a veteran 665 00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:51,640 Speaker 1: author and first TV contributor. Rob, you were somebody who 666 00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:56,839 Speaker 1: who I think perhaps celebrated maga culture is fair to say, right, 667 00:40:56,840 --> 00:40:58,480 Speaker 1: I mean you never walked away from that. You were 668 00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:04,240 Speaker 1: very very popular among the maga folks out there. And 669 00:41:04,760 --> 00:41:06,279 Speaker 1: what do you you know? One thing that I will 670 00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:08,719 Speaker 1: say about Trump that I felt never really got enough attention. 671 00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:13,319 Speaker 1: Was that there were there were young people. Uh, there 672 00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:15,799 Speaker 1: were young you know, there there were people in their 673 00:41:15,800 --> 00:41:18,640 Speaker 1: twenties and thirties who felt like, you know, they could 674 00:41:18,640 --> 00:41:22,520 Speaker 1: go and wear a MAGA hat and and that they 675 00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:25,640 Speaker 1: there was a culture around Trump. There was a kind 676 00:41:25,680 --> 00:41:30,520 Speaker 1: of a kind of of political um you know, a 677 00:41:30,600 --> 00:41:34,680 Speaker 1: political celebration of day to day life that that he 678 00:41:34,719 --> 00:41:37,520 Speaker 1: was a part of. Do you think that continues in 679 00:41:37,560 --> 00:41:40,400 Speaker 1: any way? I mean, because the Republican Party brand before 680 00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:46,000 Speaker 1: him was much more you know, old stodgy, white males 681 00:41:46,080 --> 00:41:51,640 Speaker 1: who play golf and you know I were working corporate jobs, right, 682 00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:54,480 Speaker 1: that's the stereotype or or you know, there's another one 683 00:41:54,520 --> 00:41:55,880 Speaker 1: for different parts of the country. But you know what 684 00:41:55,960 --> 00:41:57,759 Speaker 1: I'm saying. I mean there's kind of this. You look 685 00:41:57,800 --> 00:42:02,120 Speaker 1: at the leadership. You know, Bush and Cheney and McCain 686 00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:06,880 Speaker 1: and Romney. These are not guys that inspire memes in 687 00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:10,680 Speaker 1: a positive way. Do you think that that continues now 688 00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:13,320 Speaker 1: with Trump, even though he's not in office. I really 689 00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:15,200 Speaker 1: do think that it contains with a Maga movement because 690 00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:16,680 Speaker 1: you have to look at the types of people that 691 00:42:16,719 --> 00:42:18,640 Speaker 1: were brought into this people like me and I make 692 00:42:18,680 --> 00:42:21,160 Speaker 1: no bones about the fact that I've obviously risen to 693 00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:24,400 Speaker 1: prominence in the past a couple of years due to 694 00:42:24,719 --> 00:42:28,080 Speaker 1: large part of my support for President Trump and sort 695 00:42:28,080 --> 00:42:30,160 Speaker 1: of being embraced by the MAGA movement, which I will 696 00:42:30,200 --> 00:42:32,600 Speaker 1: never turn my backbone because I know what it stands for. 697 00:42:32,640 --> 00:42:34,480 Speaker 1: It I believe in what it stands for. And I 698 00:42:34,520 --> 00:42:36,640 Speaker 1: think that a lot of the people that have come 699 00:42:36,680 --> 00:42:38,560 Speaker 1: to prominence that are part of this movement, that are 700 00:42:38,640 --> 00:42:42,440 Speaker 1: that are creators, people that are that are entertaining, people 701 00:42:42,440 --> 00:42:45,080 Speaker 1: that can do different things like I can you know, 702 00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:47,400 Speaker 1: be here and speak to you about politics, that I 703 00:42:47,400 --> 00:42:50,680 Speaker 1: can go do a TikTok challenge. And and what Trump 704 00:42:50,760 --> 00:42:54,319 Speaker 1: did was he brought this energy and it's almost kind 705 00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:59,000 Speaker 1: of like an entertainment culture esque energy into the party. 706 00:42:59,239 --> 00:43:01,759 Speaker 1: And I think that the challenge for the party right now. 707 00:43:01,800 --> 00:43:04,920 Speaker 1: And this is what the Democrat Party is amazing at 708 00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:08,360 Speaker 1: it personally because they have the backing of the entire 709 00:43:08,640 --> 00:43:11,920 Speaker 1: you know, Hollywood, media, music, and entertainment industry. But it 710 00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:16,040 Speaker 1: behooves us as Republicans to say, Okay, you've got you know, 711 00:43:16,120 --> 00:43:19,560 Speaker 1: the old school mainstream you know Republicans, the Romneys and 712 00:43:19,840 --> 00:43:21,920 Speaker 1: all those But then You've got those of us that 713 00:43:21,960 --> 00:43:26,560 Speaker 1: are out here actually creating our own culture on social media, 714 00:43:26,600 --> 00:43:28,839 Speaker 1: on the internet. Sometimes you know people like me that 715 00:43:28,880 --> 00:43:33,000 Speaker 1: pop back and forth between television. But you have to 716 00:43:33,040 --> 00:43:38,000 Speaker 1: bring these things together and make them a unified movement. 717 00:43:38,360 --> 00:43:41,760 Speaker 1: And I think that there is no candidate for president 718 00:43:41,800 --> 00:43:44,280 Speaker 1: that's a Republican of the future. There is no candidate 719 00:43:44,520 --> 00:43:47,400 Speaker 1: for Congress in the future that does not go through 720 00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:50,400 Speaker 1: the MAGA base. So I think that it's very important 721 00:43:50,680 --> 00:43:54,840 Speaker 1: to continue engaging that base. How worried are you rob 722 00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:58,799 Speaker 1: about the wave of not just I think it even 723 00:43:58,840 --> 00:44:01,600 Speaker 1: will go beyond cancelation. I think we're going to see 724 00:44:01,920 --> 00:44:07,520 Speaker 1: a public private partnership of idea suppression. Right, So it's 725 00:44:07,560 --> 00:44:10,080 Speaker 1: it's one thing, you know, cancelation is what happens to 726 00:44:10,120 --> 00:44:12,279 Speaker 1: you for the wrong ideas. They're going to now go 727 00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:16,040 Speaker 1: even further up the the source if you will there, 728 00:44:16,200 --> 00:44:19,440 Speaker 1: They're gonna go further up the chain and prevent people 729 00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:22,440 Speaker 1: from even being able to share these ideas. Oh and 730 00:44:22,480 --> 00:44:25,239 Speaker 1: if you try, you will be canceled. What do you 731 00:44:25,280 --> 00:44:28,400 Speaker 1: see happening and how how do people like you and 732 00:44:28,520 --> 00:44:32,080 Speaker 1: me and others listening to this prepare for that. I 733 00:44:32,120 --> 00:44:34,279 Speaker 1: think that honestly, in my opinion, it's going to get 734 00:44:34,280 --> 00:44:36,239 Speaker 1: worse before it gets better. And one critique that I 735 00:44:36,239 --> 00:44:38,280 Speaker 1: do have of the administration is that there is ample 736 00:44:38,280 --> 00:44:41,279 Speaker 1: opportunity to really do something about this m and it 737 00:44:41,320 --> 00:44:45,319 Speaker 1: never happened. So that is that is a really big 738 00:44:45,360 --> 00:44:49,279 Speaker 1: failing on the part of the the outgoing administration. But 739 00:44:49,440 --> 00:44:51,160 Speaker 1: I do think that it's going to get worse. How 740 00:44:51,160 --> 00:44:54,160 Speaker 1: do we prepare for it? I mean, I personally always 741 00:44:54,160 --> 00:44:56,720 Speaker 1: wanted to make sure that I'm out there in different 742 00:44:56,719 --> 00:45:00,279 Speaker 1: places than Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. Who knows how long 743 00:45:00,320 --> 00:45:02,480 Speaker 1: those platforms will still be available to me. And I 744 00:45:02,520 --> 00:45:06,080 Speaker 1: think that for the people who fear this cancel culture mob, 745 00:45:06,120 --> 00:45:09,799 Speaker 1: who fear more suppression of ideas, what we have to 746 00:45:09,840 --> 00:45:12,400 Speaker 1: do is we have to start leaning on the people 747 00:45:12,400 --> 00:45:15,040 Speaker 1: that we've elected, the people that we will continue to 748 00:45:15,080 --> 00:45:17,880 Speaker 1: put an office in the future, is to do something 749 00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:21,560 Speaker 1: about this. Don't just talk about it, don't just tweet 750 00:45:21,560 --> 00:45:24,359 Speaker 1: about it, actually do something about it. And we have 751 00:45:24,440 --> 00:45:28,359 Speaker 1: to start calling out the people in power that are, 752 00:45:28,560 --> 00:45:32,880 Speaker 1: you know, being lobbied by Facebook, by Twitter, by Instagram, 753 00:45:32,920 --> 00:45:35,359 Speaker 1: by all of these different places in order to kind 754 00:45:35,360 --> 00:45:38,239 Speaker 1: of keep the status quo. So I don't think that 755 00:45:38,360 --> 00:45:41,640 Speaker 1: a Republican is going to get elected congressman or even 756 00:45:41,680 --> 00:45:44,120 Speaker 1: president of the future if they don't have a really 757 00:45:44,160 --> 00:45:48,280 Speaker 1: strong stance against this kind of censorship and an idea 758 00:45:48,360 --> 00:45:50,720 Speaker 1: about what to do about it. But I have to say, 759 00:45:50,960 --> 00:45:52,680 Speaker 1: and I say this a lot on the rocks about 760 00:45:52,719 --> 00:45:55,440 Speaker 1: this problematic podcast as well, is that it's going to 761 00:45:55,520 --> 00:45:59,480 Speaker 1: have to take same voices on the left too, even 762 00:45:59,560 --> 00:46:03,560 Speaker 1: some rules realize that this kind of suppression and this 763 00:46:03,680 --> 00:46:05,839 Speaker 1: kind of clamping down on free speech is not good, 764 00:46:05,880 --> 00:46:08,719 Speaker 1: because some of them realize that the pendulum can very 765 00:46:08,760 --> 00:46:12,160 Speaker 1: easily shift in their way as well. So I think 766 00:46:12,160 --> 00:46:14,960 Speaker 1: that it's going to take a lot of thinking people 767 00:46:15,120 --> 00:46:18,520 Speaker 1: who really are advocates for free speech on the right 768 00:46:18,600 --> 00:46:23,760 Speaker 1: and the left to come together and to fix this Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, 769 00:46:24,239 --> 00:46:27,279 Speaker 1: These things are too big and they need to be 770 00:46:27,320 --> 00:46:31,880 Speaker 1: broken up. Now we don't have control not only of 771 00:46:31,920 --> 00:46:34,880 Speaker 1: the presidency, either of the House or the Senate. What 772 00:46:35,280 --> 00:46:39,719 Speaker 1: do you think of calls to try to organize at 773 00:46:39,719 --> 00:46:43,120 Speaker 1: the state and local level where possible, to try to 774 00:46:43,200 --> 00:46:47,880 Speaker 1: create I guess you could say bulwarks of liberty against 775 00:46:47,920 --> 00:46:50,719 Speaker 1: the encroachment of the federal government. Where where possible? Where 776 00:46:51,080 --> 00:46:55,120 Speaker 1: where that's a lawful option, or also just to begin 777 00:46:55,160 --> 00:46:58,960 Speaker 1: to create. You know, we're starting to see outflow from 778 00:46:59,080 --> 00:47:02,640 Speaker 1: blue areas, New York being one of them, down to Florida. 779 00:47:02,719 --> 00:47:06,040 Speaker 1: You're seeing people leave California. A lot of them are conservatives. 780 00:47:06,440 --> 00:47:10,520 Speaker 1: And maybe this this great blue red sorting that is 781 00:47:10,560 --> 00:47:13,520 Speaker 1: going on right now, of which I may become apart 782 00:47:13,560 --> 00:47:15,480 Speaker 1: at some point myself, to be honest with you in 783 00:47:15,520 --> 00:47:20,799 Speaker 1: the pretty near future, that this also raises opportunities. You know, 784 00:47:21,000 --> 00:47:23,279 Speaker 1: it really does. And I really agree with the fact 785 00:47:23,360 --> 00:47:26,160 Speaker 1: that people have to start, you know, operating on the 786 00:47:26,200 --> 00:47:28,960 Speaker 1: local level as well. I'm a I'm a defector. I 787 00:47:29,520 --> 00:47:31,920 Speaker 1: left New York and I came down here to Florida. 788 00:47:31,960 --> 00:47:35,440 Speaker 1: I'm in Florida, absolutely amazing. But what we really have 789 00:47:35,560 --> 00:47:38,200 Speaker 1: to do is we have to make sure so when 790 00:47:38,200 --> 00:47:41,759 Speaker 1: people are fleeing these blue states and coming to red states, 791 00:47:41,800 --> 00:47:44,799 Speaker 1: that we are keeping these states read. And I think, 792 00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:48,360 Speaker 1: in absence of any kind of majority in the House, 793 00:47:48,480 --> 00:47:50,160 Speaker 1: but I do think we'll get it back in twenty 794 00:47:50,200 --> 00:47:53,440 Speaker 1: twenty two. But I really do think that we have 795 00:47:53,560 --> 00:47:55,920 Speaker 1: to start thinking in terms of that. And I like 796 00:47:56,120 --> 00:47:58,520 Speaker 1: this word that you use, this sort of like bulwark 797 00:47:58,600 --> 00:48:01,759 Speaker 1: against what's being closman of the federal government. Because me 798 00:48:01,920 --> 00:48:05,360 Speaker 1: living in Florida, with the great Governor Ron de Santis 799 00:48:05,360 --> 00:48:07,200 Speaker 1: in Florida, I feel a part of the reason why 800 00:48:07,239 --> 00:48:10,320 Speaker 1: I'm not as betalistic as some other people is because 801 00:48:10,360 --> 00:48:12,840 Speaker 1: I live in Florida and it is a great place 802 00:48:12,880 --> 00:48:15,480 Speaker 1: to live, and I'm going to work to keep it 803 00:48:15,640 --> 00:48:17,880 Speaker 1: a great place to live. Right there are still the 804 00:48:18,320 --> 00:48:21,320 Speaker 1: genius of the founders is that we have a constitution 805 00:48:21,400 --> 00:48:25,200 Speaker 1: that we know Democrats will try to shred at many opportunities, 806 00:48:25,239 --> 00:48:27,719 Speaker 1: but we still have it, and we have states and 807 00:48:27,800 --> 00:48:31,680 Speaker 1: state responsibilities. So there are there are options here to 808 00:48:31,719 --> 00:48:35,920 Speaker 1: try to pursue a more shall we say, capitalist and 809 00:48:37,360 --> 00:48:40,239 Speaker 1: liberty based future for for individuals and for families out 810 00:48:40,280 --> 00:48:42,680 Speaker 1: there who listening to this while staying in the United States. 811 00:48:42,760 --> 00:48:45,799 Speaker 1: I'm not advocating. I'm not some cry baby labels gonna 812 00:48:45,840 --> 00:48:48,000 Speaker 1: say we should all move to New Zealand or Canada 813 00:48:48,040 --> 00:48:50,640 Speaker 1: or whatever. No, there are ways to stay here in 814 00:48:50,640 --> 00:48:53,839 Speaker 1: this country. There is the fight, the political fight that's 815 00:48:53,880 --> 00:48:56,759 Speaker 1: worth that's worth having. And I just wanted to want 816 00:48:56,800 --> 00:48:58,759 Speaker 1: to know if you have some you know, what are 817 00:48:58,840 --> 00:49:00,839 Speaker 1: your your words of a couragement? This is a tough 818 00:49:00,920 --> 00:49:02,640 Speaker 1: day for a lot of people. Rob a lot of 819 00:49:02,640 --> 00:49:05,200 Speaker 1: people listening to this are having a rough one, and 820 00:49:05,200 --> 00:49:09,839 Speaker 1: and I'm I'm also cycle. I've been psychologically preparing for 821 00:49:09,840 --> 00:49:12,839 Speaker 1: it quite honestly since I'd say a couple of weeks 822 00:49:12,920 --> 00:49:15,400 Speaker 1: after the election, when I felt like these legal challenges 823 00:49:15,480 --> 00:49:20,640 Speaker 1: we were very remote in the probability of success for 824 00:49:20,640 --> 00:49:22,920 Speaker 1: for a lot of other people, though, this this really stings. 825 00:49:23,320 --> 00:49:26,640 Speaker 1: What are your you know, what's your halftime coach speech for? 826 00:49:27,480 --> 00:49:30,120 Speaker 1: You know? There there are better times ahead for America. 827 00:49:30,280 --> 00:49:32,520 Speaker 1: You know I mean that said there are better times 828 00:49:32,560 --> 00:49:34,759 Speaker 1: ahead for America. But look, the thing about it is 829 00:49:34,760 --> 00:49:36,640 Speaker 1: is that when you love this country, you believe in 830 00:49:36,680 --> 00:49:39,680 Speaker 1: this country, you gotta love it and believe in it 831 00:49:39,719 --> 00:49:42,359 Speaker 1: no matter what. And if you're somebody that's out there 832 00:49:42,480 --> 00:49:46,520 Speaker 1: that's feeling I'm discouraged or kind of like overwhelmed by 833 00:49:46,520 --> 00:49:49,560 Speaker 1: all of this, I would say, use this fire to 834 00:49:49,719 --> 00:49:52,719 Speaker 1: think about how you can get involved to change things. 835 00:49:52,719 --> 00:49:54,319 Speaker 1: The great thing about this Magol move is that so 836 00:49:54,320 --> 00:49:57,960 Speaker 1: many people got involved that were not involved before. Let's 837 00:49:58,000 --> 00:50:00,680 Speaker 1: think about how if you're a concer innervative and you 838 00:50:00,719 --> 00:50:04,479 Speaker 1: have conservative leaning principles or Republican principles or whatever. How 839 00:50:04,560 --> 00:50:06,520 Speaker 1: you can get involved in the local level, how you 840 00:50:06,520 --> 00:50:08,120 Speaker 1: can do things that are a little bit different. I 841 00:50:08,480 --> 00:50:10,960 Speaker 1: know me personally, I'm involved in this way. I do 842 00:50:10,960 --> 00:50:13,360 Speaker 1: a lot of political commentary, but I think that we 843 00:50:13,480 --> 00:50:17,040 Speaker 1: have a cultural deficit with conservatives, and I'm focusing a 844 00:50:17,080 --> 00:50:20,480 Speaker 1: little bit of my energy on doing culture stuff. So 845 00:50:20,520 --> 00:50:23,719 Speaker 1: I think that we all have something to offer. Do 846 00:50:23,800 --> 00:50:27,400 Speaker 1: not be defeated, Do not give up, never ever quit. 847 00:50:28,160 --> 00:50:32,439 Speaker 1: Dust yourself off, lick your wounds, and think about your 848 00:50:32,520 --> 00:50:37,800 Speaker 1: next steps forwards, positively impacting our great nation. Rob Smith 849 00:50:37,880 --> 00:50:40,239 Speaker 1: from the First TV My man always good to see you. 850 00:50:40,880 --> 00:50:44,799 Speaker 1: Better days ahead for both of us. We'll talk soon.

Moving to the Biden administration, 854 00:50:56,880 --> 00:50:59,160 Speaker 1: let me just bring up something that we really haven't 855 00:50:59,160 --> 00:51:01,640 Speaker 1: had time to talk about over the past several months. 856 00:51:01,719 --> 00:51:04,879 Speaker 1: Joe Biden through all this chaos. Of course, there have 857 00:51:04,880 --> 00:51:09,160 Speaker 1: been many things that have been detrimental to a smooth 858 00:51:09,200 --> 00:51:13,080 Speaker 1: start for the Biden administration. But one thing that Biden 859 00:51:13,239 --> 00:51:20,200 Speaker 1: has had is cover because the media has been chasing 860 00:51:20,600 --> 00:51:23,640 Speaker 1: one story after another about Donald Trump, as we have 861 00:51:23,800 --> 00:51:27,600 Speaker 1: from the from the start, and Joe Biden has not 862 00:51:27,800 --> 00:51:33,320 Speaker 1: gotten the close look that most president elects have gotten. 863 00:51:33,680 --> 00:51:38,040 Speaker 1: We certainly remember Bill Clinton, for instance, started his administration 864 00:51:38,640 --> 00:51:41,800 Speaker 1: in the rockiest of ways. This is something that Biden 865 00:51:42,120 --> 00:51:44,319 Speaker 1: and his team are going to be noticing over the 866 00:51:44,360 --> 00:51:48,440 Speaker 1: past the coming weeks. They are suddenly going to feel 867 00:51:49,000 --> 00:51:51,640 Speaker 1: the hot glare of those cleague lights that are being 868 00:51:51,680 --> 00:51:54,840 Speaker 1: turned from Donald Trump now and going to be focusing 869 00:51:54,840 --> 00:51:57,760 Speaker 1: squarely on them. I mean, this is honestly the funny 870 00:51:57,840 --> 00:52:00,359 Speaker 1: is this is honestly the funniest thing Joe Scarborough said, 871 00:52:00,560 --> 00:52:04,520 Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe ever, Yeah, all of a sudden, now, yeah, 872 00:52:04,600 --> 00:52:07,600 Speaker 1: Joe Biden's really gonna be on the hot seat. Media 873 00:52:07,680 --> 00:52:10,760 Speaker 1: is really gonna be kicking the tires now, oh oh sure, 874 00:52:11,320 --> 00:52:14,760 Speaker 1: now that they foisted this guy on the American public, 875 00:52:14,880 --> 00:52:18,880 Speaker 1: Now that they suppress the Hunter Biden laptop store, I 876 00:52:18,920 --> 00:52:23,840 Speaker 1: mean actively shut down a news organization, the New York Post, 877 00:52:24,120 --> 00:52:29,040 Speaker 1: from being able to share true information going to a 878 00:52:29,239 --> 00:52:33,640 Speaker 1: presidential elect presidential candidates fitness for office. Now that all 879 00:52:33,719 --> 00:52:36,840 Speaker 1: that has happened, they're gonna be like the really serious 880 00:52:36,920 --> 00:52:40,200 Speaker 1: journals now now they're gonna say, oh, who is this 881 00:52:40,360 --> 00:52:44,200 Speaker 1: Biden guy? Oh, maybe maybe we should ask them quite 882 00:52:44,280 --> 00:52:47,439 Speaker 1: notting that's not gonna happen. But they're gonna say, see, 883 00:52:47,440 --> 00:52:49,520 Speaker 1: this is the whole game with journalists. Oh, it's gonna 884 00:52:49,520 --> 00:52:51,120 Speaker 1: be tough. We don't want to have to be so 885 00:52:51,200 --> 00:52:54,120 Speaker 1: tough on Joe. But you know that's what's gonna be 886 00:52:54,120 --> 00:52:57,680 Speaker 1: happening here. No, it is not. They are gonna be 887 00:52:57,719 --> 00:53:04,080 Speaker 1: giving this guy the equivalent of a Shiatsu massage. Okay, 888 00:53:04,160 --> 00:53:06,560 Speaker 1: they're going to be Joe Biden is going to get 889 00:53:06,560 --> 00:53:08,959 Speaker 1: the kid glove treatment like nothing else you've ever seen. 890 00:53:09,440 --> 00:53:11,879 Speaker 1: We all know it. In fact, not only will they 891 00:53:11,920 --> 00:53:16,440 Speaker 1: be refusing to criticize him, they will viciously attack any 892 00:53:16,520 --> 00:53:21,640 Speaker 1: actual critics that emerge. You're listening to the Buck Sexton 893 00:53:21,760 --> 00:53:24,719 Speaker 1: Joe podcast, make sure you subscribe to the podcast on 894 00:53:24,760 --> 00:53:28,400 Speaker 1: the iHeartRadio app or wherever you get your podcasts. I 895 00:53:28,520 --> 00:53:30,399 Speaker 1: just wanted to comment. I don't know if anyone else 896 00:53:30,520 --> 00:53:34,239 Speaker 1: is struck by just seeing everyone masked, just the kind 897 00:53:34,280 --> 00:53:40,160 Speaker 1: of public you know, sort of performance of responsible behavior, 898 00:53:40,160 --> 00:53:43,279 Speaker 1: even the Republicans are in mask is no longer that 899 00:53:43,400 --> 00:53:46,719 Speaker 1: social pressure from Donald Trump to be maskless, to be 900 00:53:46,760 --> 00:53:49,480 Speaker 1: sort of proudly maskless. It's pretty striking, at least for 901 00:53:49,520 --> 00:53:52,279 Speaker 1: me to see. Not wanting to wear a mask all 902 00:53:52,320 --> 00:53:56,840 Speaker 1: the time, including outside, including alone, going for a hike 903 00:53:56,920 --> 00:53:59,680 Speaker 1: by yourself in the woods, out on the street with 904 00:53:59,719 --> 00:54:03,480 Speaker 1: no than fifty feet of you is not about Trump, Libs. 905 00:54:04,440 --> 00:54:09,319 Speaker 1: I just I hope they will finally start to get this. 906 00:54:10,040 --> 00:54:14,880 Speaker 1: It really isn't about Trump, certainly, not anymore. I still 907 00:54:15,200 --> 00:54:21,760 Speaker 1: hate the mask mania. I still think they dramatically overstate 908 00:54:22,400 --> 00:54:27,359 Speaker 1: what a mandate has done or would would do for us. 909 00:54:27,360 --> 00:54:30,000 Speaker 1: I know the Biden's now got a hundred days of masking. 910 00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:32,960 Speaker 1: We're already masking. We've been masking the whole time. Didn't 911 00:54:33,000 --> 00:54:37,360 Speaker 1: stop the pandemic from reaching its biggest ever second wave 912 00:54:37,440 --> 00:54:40,400 Speaker 1: of cases didn't stop it. That's a fact. And we 913 00:54:40,520 --> 00:54:43,879 Speaker 1: have been masking also a fact in huge numbers all 914 00:54:43,920 --> 00:54:48,600 Speaker 1: across the country for months. But see, now, what are 915 00:54:48,600 --> 00:54:50,720 Speaker 1: they gonna do now they have to make actual arguments 916 00:54:50,719 --> 00:54:52,520 Speaker 1: about things. I mean, they're gonna try to suppress and 917 00:54:52,560 --> 00:54:56,120 Speaker 1: avoid making arguments. But when they're unable to just shut 918 00:54:56,120 --> 00:54:59,840 Speaker 1: down the opposition, hopefully they won't be entirely successful with that. 919 00:55:00,719 --> 00:55:04,759 Speaker 1: They have to turn around to actually deal with facts here. 920 00:55:04,800 --> 00:55:06,080 Speaker 1: They have to, They have to deal with the fact 921 00:55:06,120 --> 00:55:10,200 Speaker 1: that it's not all about Trump. It was never despite 922 00:55:10,239 --> 00:55:12,759 Speaker 1: what they think, you know, oh, the social pressure to know. 923 00:55:13,000 --> 00:55:15,719 Speaker 1: I don't like wearing a mask because it's uncomfortable and 924 00:55:15,800 --> 00:55:19,360 Speaker 1: in many cases it's useless. And because doctor Fauci told 925 00:55:19,440 --> 00:55:21,719 Speaker 1: us at the beginning of this pandemic that it would 926 00:55:21,760 --> 00:55:24,279 Speaker 1: just make people feel better, but it was not a 927 00:55:24,360 --> 00:55:27,040 Speaker 1: necessary public health measure. And that's when we thought the 928 00:55:27,080 --> 00:55:30,279 Speaker 1: fatality rate would be even higher than it is. And 929 00:55:30,320 --> 00:55:33,719 Speaker 1: I've not forgotten that. Then this after the fact justification 930 00:55:33,800 --> 00:55:36,120 Speaker 1: of oh I didn't want people to take up all 931 00:55:36,160 --> 00:55:39,080 Speaker 1: the end ninety five. So I yeah, go and watch 932 00:55:39,080 --> 00:55:41,640 Speaker 1: that interview and tell me if you think that's what Fauci. 933 00:55:41,719 --> 00:55:43,680 Speaker 1: He's a great actor, if that's what he was doing, 934 00:55:45,440 --> 00:55:47,880 Speaker 1: Like we're all such idiots, Well we're all supposed to 935 00:55:47,920 --> 00:55:54,719 Speaker 1: believe that. Sure, it's unreal, unreal, But you know, I 936 00:55:55,080 --> 00:56:00,040 Speaker 1: had a little reminder yesterday, a little reminder lesson and 937 00:55:59,800 --> 00:56:04,080 Speaker 1: it hits close to home. My father, who is seventy 938 00:56:04,080 --> 00:56:09,440 Speaker 1: four is he's you know, great dad, My dad's the greatest, 939 00:56:09,880 --> 00:56:13,879 Speaker 1: And he went to go get the vaccine. He took, 940 00:56:13,920 --> 00:56:16,000 Speaker 1: it took, and the whole thing is, it's been such 941 00:56:16,040 --> 00:56:18,520 Speaker 1: an ordeal. My whole family's been pitching in Troy. You 942 00:56:18,600 --> 00:56:21,080 Speaker 1: got to go online. This is all New York. This 943 00:56:21,160 --> 00:56:24,719 Speaker 1: is you know, New York City, you know it. And 944 00:56:24,880 --> 00:56:27,719 Speaker 1: health department in the whole thing. It's a mess. And 945 00:56:27,760 --> 00:56:31,560 Speaker 1: they've had months and months. They've basically had a year 946 00:56:31,640 --> 00:56:34,920 Speaker 1: to prepare for this, all right. It isn't like we 947 00:56:34,920 --> 00:56:38,680 Speaker 1: asked them to set up some amazing vaccination programmer plan 948 00:56:38,760 --> 00:56:40,600 Speaker 1: in thirty days. And I know some states are better 949 00:56:40,600 --> 00:56:43,000 Speaker 1: than others. And I think that a lot of you 950 00:56:43,080 --> 00:56:47,479 Speaker 1: who live in more sane, more open states, it's hard 951 00:56:47,520 --> 00:56:52,960 Speaker 1: for you to appreciate what your fellow conservatives in New York, 952 00:56:52,960 --> 00:56:59,839 Speaker 1: New Jersey, California, Illinois, what we've gone through in Washington 953 00:57:00,080 --> 00:57:02,640 Speaker 1: State and Oregon. I mean, the stuff that we've been 954 00:57:02,680 --> 00:57:06,600 Speaker 1: put through by our elected officials and and just the 955 00:57:06,719 --> 00:57:09,720 Speaker 1: day to day insanity and the pressures that we've we've 956 00:57:09,760 --> 00:57:15,200 Speaker 1: been under. It's madness. It's absolute madness, and it's really 957 00:57:15,239 --> 00:57:16,760 Speaker 1: worn us down. And I know you'd say, well, you 958 00:57:16,800 --> 00:57:19,240 Speaker 1: got to leave those states. We're working on it. It 959 00:57:19,280 --> 00:57:21,680 Speaker 1: takes time, you know, you got you got jobs, you 960 00:57:21,760 --> 00:57:25,040 Speaker 1: got family. But but no, I think the great exodus 961 00:57:26,000 --> 00:57:28,400 Speaker 1: from Blue states for people that want to live a 962 00:57:28,480 --> 00:57:32,280 Speaker 1: more sane existence. I think it's the momentum is unstoppable. 963 00:57:32,320 --> 00:57:35,680 Speaker 1: Now you're gonna stick around for the next the next 964 00:57:35,760 --> 00:57:39,160 Speaker 1: major disaster, so you can have Newsome and Cuomo and 965 00:57:39,200 --> 00:57:41,240 Speaker 1: these other idiots in charge of you. I don't think so. 966 00:57:42,680 --> 00:57:45,040 Speaker 1: But my dad yesterday was in line. He had to 967 00:57:45,080 --> 00:57:49,040 Speaker 1: go to in Staten Island, which is one of the 968 00:57:49,080 --> 00:57:51,280 Speaker 1: five boroughs here in New York. He had to go 969 00:57:51,360 --> 00:57:53,600 Speaker 1: to Staten Island because he couldn't get an appointment anywhere 970 00:57:53,640 --> 00:57:57,280 Speaker 1: near where he lives. So you know, that's about I mean, 971 00:57:57,280 --> 00:58:00,200 Speaker 1: it depends the New York traffic changes things dramatically. Is 972 00:58:00,240 --> 00:58:02,520 Speaker 1: not that much traffic now, but it's about a forty 973 00:58:02,520 --> 00:58:05,360 Speaker 1: minute forty minute hall together. They're not that bad, but 974 00:58:05,400 --> 00:58:07,640 Speaker 1: it's in a car. You gotta drive thirty or forty minutes. 975 00:58:08,280 --> 00:58:14,160 Speaker 1: And so he gets there and it's almost all senior citizens, 976 00:58:14,160 --> 00:58:17,080 Speaker 1: he says in the line, an enormous line at this 977 00:58:17,200 --> 00:58:21,320 Speaker 1: vaccination site. He gets there forty five minutes early. It's 978 00:58:21,360 --> 00:58:24,640 Speaker 1: all set up by this is all Democrats. This is 979 00:58:24,760 --> 00:58:28,000 Speaker 1: Blue state in action here, friends, all right, there's no 980 00:58:28,040 --> 00:58:31,720 Speaker 1: Republicans in the mix. This is the the New York 981 00:58:31,800 --> 00:58:35,000 Speaker 1: City and New York State Health Apparatus has been handed 982 00:58:35,040 --> 00:58:39,680 Speaker 1: vaccines and told go distribute these to people. And they've 983 00:58:39,680 --> 00:58:42,400 Speaker 1: had a lot of time and a lot of ability 984 00:58:42,400 --> 00:58:44,600 Speaker 1: to prepare for this. So there's there. He's in a 985 00:58:44,680 --> 00:58:48,560 Speaker 1: huge line and of course socially distanced, and they're outside. 986 00:58:48,560 --> 00:58:53,200 Speaker 1: It's it's like thirty three, thirty four degrees yesterday, New 987 00:58:53,280 --> 00:58:55,800 Speaker 1: York City. Well, this is so you've got senior citizens. 988 00:58:55,840 --> 00:58:58,960 Speaker 1: You know, my dad's a robust, robust and handsome fellow 989 00:58:58,960 --> 00:59:00,840 Speaker 1: with a great head of hair. But you know, there 990 00:59:00,880 --> 00:59:02,960 Speaker 1: are some senior citizens who are out there who are 991 00:59:03,080 --> 00:59:05,600 Speaker 1: a little more frail. They gotta walk or they and 992 00:59:05,640 --> 00:59:09,360 Speaker 1: they're in their eighties or their nineties, and they're out 993 00:59:09,400 --> 00:59:13,360 Speaker 1: there freezing their butts off outside because you can't be inside. 994 00:59:13,400 --> 00:59:15,520 Speaker 1: That's too We couldn't. We couldn't figure out a way 995 00:59:15,560 --> 00:59:17,600 Speaker 1: to make this so that at least you could socially 996 00:59:17,640 --> 00:59:21,760 Speaker 1: distance inside with masks on and wait for your vaccine. 997 00:59:21,800 --> 00:59:23,840 Speaker 1: No, no no, no, that that can't be allowed, right, And 998 00:59:23,960 --> 00:59:26,160 Speaker 1: you know, do the temperature checks? Oh, I always one else? 999 00:59:26,360 --> 00:59:29,040 Speaker 1: Do these things actually work? In any meaningful way, because 1000 00:59:29,440 --> 00:59:32,920 Speaker 1: whenever it comes down to it, they just sort of 1001 00:59:32,920 --> 00:59:36,920 Speaker 1: go back to the we can't trust it, you know. 1002 00:59:37,000 --> 00:59:39,880 Speaker 1: So even if you socially distance and mask and temperature 1003 00:59:39,920 --> 00:59:42,480 Speaker 1: check and wash your hand before you go in. Let's say, 1004 00:59:42,520 --> 00:59:45,720 Speaker 1: for this to a facility they'll do vaccinations, you're still 1005 00:59:45,760 --> 00:59:47,400 Speaker 1: at too high a risk. So you got to wait 1006 00:59:47,400 --> 00:59:50,800 Speaker 1: outside and freeze your butt off. So my dad gets there, 1007 00:59:50,840 --> 00:59:53,800 Speaker 1: he's forty five minutes early. My mom is waiting in 1008 00:59:53,840 --> 00:59:57,880 Speaker 1: the car for him, and she doesn't qualify for the 1009 00:59:57,960 --> 01:00:00,360 Speaker 1: vaccine yet because she's she's a bit younger than she's 1010 01:00:00,360 --> 01:00:03,920 Speaker 1: in her sixties, so she doesn't qualify. You've got to 1011 01:00:03,960 --> 01:00:08,640 Speaker 1: be over sixty five. And he's waiting, and he gets there, 1012 01:00:08,840 --> 01:00:11,800 Speaker 1: he's right on time, and he waits before anyone even 1013 01:00:11,840 --> 01:00:15,760 Speaker 1: says he's in this line, just imagine standing. Here's no chairs, 1014 01:00:15,800 --> 01:00:18,480 Speaker 1: there's no nothing. These are people in their seventies and 1015 01:00:18,520 --> 01:00:22,520 Speaker 1: their eighties and you know, some in their late sixties obviously, 1016 01:00:22,960 --> 01:00:25,760 Speaker 1: and they're standing in line, he says, for two hours. 1017 01:00:25,800 --> 01:00:30,280 Speaker 1: The line barely moves. This is getting people's shots. You 1018 01:00:30,360 --> 01:00:32,720 Speaker 1: have to wait. I mean, my whole family was pitching 1019 01:00:32,760 --> 01:00:34,800 Speaker 1: and going online trying to see where we could go. 1020 01:00:34,880 --> 01:00:37,760 Speaker 1: How you get the appointment, You have to wait to 1021 01:00:37,800 --> 01:00:40,760 Speaker 1: do that, and then you get there, you have your appointment, 1022 01:00:40,800 --> 01:00:44,120 Speaker 1: time you show up, you're in the system, and you're 1023 01:00:44,120 --> 01:00:47,920 Speaker 1: standing outside in the freezing cold for two hours without 1024 01:00:47,920 --> 01:00:51,400 Speaker 1: a line even moving. And remember New York as of 1025 01:00:52,000 --> 01:00:55,440 Speaker 1: yesterday was officially saying Mayor Build de Blasi, who said 1026 01:00:55,440 --> 01:00:59,920 Speaker 1: that New York City might run out of COVID vaccine 1027 01:01:00,160 --> 01:01:02,760 Speaker 1: as soon as Thursday, entirely might. The supply might be 1028 01:01:02,800 --> 01:01:07,320 Speaker 1: gone by Thursday. Now who knows. I haven't been able 1029 01:01:07,360 --> 01:01:09,640 Speaker 1: to check on this one today at the specific site 1030 01:01:09,680 --> 01:01:13,600 Speaker 1: if this has happened anywhere yet. But there have been 1031 01:01:13,640 --> 01:01:16,920 Speaker 1: instances where people have waited in line and then they're told, sorry, 1032 01:01:16,920 --> 01:01:19,240 Speaker 1: we're all out of vaccine. So you're waiting in line 1033 01:01:19,240 --> 01:01:22,040 Speaker 1: for two hours, no one's really telling you anything, and 1034 01:01:22,520 --> 01:01:26,360 Speaker 1: then they make the decision that the city bureaucrats make 1035 01:01:26,400 --> 01:01:29,400 Speaker 1: the decision to go down and they start saying, well, who, 1036 01:01:29,440 --> 01:01:31,600 Speaker 1: you know, let's say that we're at now five pm 1037 01:01:31,640 --> 01:01:34,520 Speaker 1: Eastern time, or you know, we're around that period, and 1038 01:01:34,880 --> 01:01:38,280 Speaker 1: they'd say, well, who had a three o'clock appointment? And 1039 01:01:38,440 --> 01:01:40,919 Speaker 1: people at the back of the line who got there 1040 01:01:41,080 --> 01:01:43,240 Speaker 1: very late. Some of them are saying, well, I had 1041 01:01:43,240 --> 01:01:45,320 Speaker 1: a three o'clock appointment, but they're behind all the people 1042 01:01:45,320 --> 01:01:47,560 Speaker 1: who had the four o'clock appointment, and it's already five o'clock. 1043 01:01:47,560 --> 01:01:49,840 Speaker 1: Guess what they do. Okay, well the three o'clocks, we're 1044 01:01:49,840 --> 01:01:52,240 Speaker 1: gonna move you. You're now going right now, you're you're 1045 01:01:52,240 --> 01:01:54,680 Speaker 1: at the front of the line. Oh so you're waiting 1046 01:01:54,680 --> 01:01:56,640 Speaker 1: there a line for no reason because it's not really 1047 01:01:56,640 --> 01:01:59,040 Speaker 1: a line. They just don't know what they're doing. And 1048 01:01:59,080 --> 01:02:01,280 Speaker 1: now they're gonna take people have just arrived but are 1049 01:02:01,320 --> 01:02:04,160 Speaker 1: three hours or two hours late for their appointment. You 1050 01:02:04,240 --> 01:02:10,800 Speaker 1: can imagine how that went over with the gathered senior citizens, 1051 01:02:10,840 --> 01:02:15,160 Speaker 1: socially distanced, masked up in thirty degree weather. Did not 1052 01:02:15,240 --> 01:02:18,680 Speaker 1: go over well. And and then they came up and 1053 01:02:18,960 --> 01:02:20,680 Speaker 1: I remember my my mom actually was the one who 1054 01:02:20,680 --> 01:02:22,480 Speaker 1: gave me the call. She said, they just came out. 1055 01:02:22,720 --> 01:02:24,840 Speaker 1: He's been in line for two hours, and they said 1056 01:02:25,240 --> 01:02:27,280 Speaker 1: it's going to be They came out and told them 1057 01:02:27,480 --> 01:02:29,720 Speaker 1: it was dark at this point, right the sun's already down, 1058 01:02:29,760 --> 01:02:33,480 Speaker 1: so it's now nighttime standing outside in the dark, basically, 1059 01:02:33,520 --> 01:02:36,880 Speaker 1: and this at this center in Staten Island where they're 1060 01:02:36,880 --> 01:02:39,960 Speaker 1: giving these uh, they're giving these vaccines out. So it's 1061 01:02:40,000 --> 01:02:42,880 Speaker 1: it's now getting colder. And they come out and they 1062 01:02:42,920 --> 01:02:45,440 Speaker 1: say to his section of the line, he says, there 1063 01:02:45,440 --> 01:02:48,520 Speaker 1: are hundreds and hundreds of people in line. It's gonna 1064 01:02:48,520 --> 01:02:53,040 Speaker 1: be at least two more hours. Now, I gotta ask you, 1065 01:02:53,040 --> 01:02:54,840 Speaker 1: you know, because people are it's funny when I when 1066 01:02:54,840 --> 01:02:56,920 Speaker 1: I shared this, I mean, it's not funny, but it's 1067 01:02:56,920 --> 01:02:58,600 Speaker 1: when when I showed this on Twitter, people are saying, 1068 01:02:58,720 --> 01:03:01,960 Speaker 1: you should stay if it's twin twelve hours? Really? Really 1069 01:03:02,000 --> 01:03:05,800 Speaker 1: would would you? Would you stand in a line run 1070 01:03:05,840 --> 01:03:08,920 Speaker 1: by the Democrats City government of Government of New York 1071 01:03:08,960 --> 01:03:13,040 Speaker 1: for twelve hours to get a vaccine for a virus 1072 01:03:13,080 --> 01:03:15,560 Speaker 1: that has been around for over a year that other 1073 01:03:15,560 --> 01:03:19,080 Speaker 1: people are already getting vaccinated for. And even if you 1074 01:03:19,200 --> 01:03:21,600 Speaker 1: get it, even if you're in the high risk category, 1075 01:03:21,640 --> 01:03:26,760 Speaker 1: your odds are ninety seven percent of being okay, not 1076 01:03:27,200 --> 01:03:30,400 Speaker 1: ninety nine. It's like ninety seven out of one hundred 1077 01:03:30,440 --> 01:03:33,480 Speaker 1: will survive, even the h even in the higher risk category. 1078 01:03:36,160 --> 01:03:38,480 Speaker 1: Would would you stay at twelve how about twenty four hours? 1079 01:03:38,560 --> 01:03:41,439 Speaker 1: You know? What about passing out? When is it too much? 1080 01:03:44,480 --> 01:03:47,320 Speaker 1: And It's one of these things where I also know 1081 01:03:47,440 --> 01:03:50,680 Speaker 1: I know people in New York. I know people in 1082 01:03:50,720 --> 01:03:53,640 Speaker 1: New York who have been able to get appointments for 1083 01:03:53,680 --> 01:03:58,120 Speaker 1: the COVID nineteen vaccine easily, and they and they just 1084 01:03:58,160 --> 01:04:01,400 Speaker 1: show up at a nice com place and they get 1085 01:04:01,400 --> 01:04:04,720 Speaker 1: their shot. But you know, and they're in their twenties 1086 01:04:05,440 --> 01:04:11,080 Speaker 1: and thirties, but they're part of the teachers union. Oh okay, 1087 01:04:11,960 --> 01:04:14,080 Speaker 1: And do you think that those teachers that I know 1088 01:04:14,520 --> 01:04:18,240 Speaker 1: who have gotten shots for the vaccine ahead of people 1089 01:04:18,280 --> 01:04:21,360 Speaker 1: like my parents, who are at an age where they 1090 01:04:21,360 --> 01:04:25,240 Speaker 1: are in the risk category. Do you think that those 1091 01:04:25,320 --> 01:04:30,040 Speaker 1: teachers are back in the classroom in all cases as 1092 01:04:30,080 --> 01:04:31,880 Speaker 1: soon as they get that vaccine, All right, you're now 1093 01:04:31,920 --> 01:04:39,400 Speaker 1: a classroom. No, they're still zoom teaching. That's that's on 1094 01:04:39,440 --> 01:04:41,520 Speaker 1: so many level important for you to know this, because 1095 01:04:42,360 --> 01:04:45,400 Speaker 1: we are ruled by morons. You need to remember that 1096 01:04:45,800 --> 01:04:48,640 Speaker 1: the people that are making these decisions are not impressive, 1097 01:04:48,640 --> 01:04:52,400 Speaker 1: they're not very smart, and they don't really care. There's 1098 01:04:52,400 --> 01:04:54,920 Speaker 1: no real accountability. If you're standing in that line for 1099 01:04:54,960 --> 01:04:56,600 Speaker 1: four hours and you get to the end of it 1100 01:04:56,600 --> 01:04:59,320 Speaker 1: and they say, oh, sorry, you know, we actually gave 1101 01:04:59,360 --> 01:05:02,080 Speaker 1: your vaccine somebody else, or we're out, or oh no, 1102 01:05:02,120 --> 01:05:04,400 Speaker 1: we had a different name on the list. What do 1103 01:05:04,440 --> 01:05:08,400 Speaker 1: you think your recourse is? Nothing? Can't go to the 1104 01:05:08,440 --> 01:05:10,720 Speaker 1: other city vaccine place down the street, right. It's not 1105 01:05:10,720 --> 01:05:14,640 Speaker 1: like a restaurant. What's your recourse? You have none. It's 1106 01:05:14,640 --> 01:05:18,240 Speaker 1: like a little like a little taste of dealing with 1107 01:05:18,280 --> 01:05:21,360 Speaker 1: the Soviet Union here in New York. And I'm sure 1108 01:05:21,400 --> 01:05:23,640 Speaker 1: there are similar stories like this in other places across 1109 01:05:23,680 --> 01:05:25,720 Speaker 1: the country, and not just in Blue states. Mind you, 1110 01:05:27,080 --> 01:05:31,920 Speaker 1: bureaucracy is inefficient because the people who are bureaucrats generally 1111 01:05:32,320 --> 01:05:37,280 Speaker 1: don't care. Not enough to be excellent, not enough to 1112 01:05:37,280 --> 01:05:38,880 Speaker 1: go the not enough to go the extra mile and 1113 01:05:38,880 --> 01:05:42,120 Speaker 1: hold themselves accountable, none of that stuff. They'll do the minimum. 1114 01:05:42,720 --> 01:05:45,640 Speaker 1: Bureaucrats do. The men Bau exceptions to this. You enough 1115 01:05:45,680 --> 01:05:47,840 Speaker 1: to send me an email telling me about you know, 1116 01:05:47,920 --> 01:05:52,640 Speaker 1: your your uncle Morty, who was like the best, you know, 1117 01:05:52,680 --> 01:05:54,600 Speaker 1: transit worker in the history of the world, driving the 1118 01:05:54,600 --> 01:05:56,120 Speaker 1: bus every day. I know there are people that go 1119 01:05:56,200 --> 01:05:58,640 Speaker 1: the extra other people that do that in everything, but 1120 01:05:58,720 --> 01:06:05,240 Speaker 1: the culture of bureaucracies in general is the minimum and mediocrity. 1121 01:06:05,680 --> 01:06:07,600 Speaker 1: And this is why you don't want government in control. 1122 01:06:07,600 --> 01:06:09,560 Speaker 1: Of your life. This is why you don't want government 1123 01:06:10,160 --> 01:06:14,480 Speaker 1: making decisions for you. That's one part of this. The 1124 01:06:14,520 --> 01:06:17,720 Speaker 1: other part is how stupid are the people making these 1125 01:06:17,760 --> 01:06:19,720 Speaker 1: determinations at the top level. Now, I'm not talking about 1126 01:06:19,720 --> 01:06:22,960 Speaker 1: the low level bureaucrats, the top level, the Cuomos, the 1127 01:06:23,040 --> 01:06:28,160 Speaker 1: de Blasios, the Neosoms, the Gretchen Whitmers in Michigan, the 1128 01:06:29,160 --> 01:06:31,400 Speaker 1: I forget the name of the governor in Oregon off 1129 01:06:31,400 --> 01:06:33,160 Speaker 1: the top of my head, but you know that governor's 1130 01:06:33,160 --> 01:06:35,720 Speaker 1: an idiot too, right, I mean, the governor's all out there. 1131 01:06:36,920 --> 01:06:42,680 Speaker 1: The leadership in places like Washington State and Colorado, how 1132 01:06:42,880 --> 01:06:45,840 Speaker 1: dumb are they when it comes to the way this 1133 01:06:46,480 --> 01:06:51,080 Speaker 1: vaccine is being implemented, the speed with which this is 1134 01:06:51,120 --> 01:06:53,120 Speaker 1: being done. They had so much time to prepare for this, 1135 01:06:53,160 --> 01:06:55,920 Speaker 1: they had ample resources. They can't do it. And look 1136 01:06:55,960 --> 01:06:57,520 Speaker 1: at some of the decision making. Now New York is 1137 01:06:57,560 --> 01:07:01,000 Speaker 1: almost is uniquely awful in this sense. There is no 1138 01:07:01,120 --> 01:07:07,600 Speaker 1: justification for giving teachers who are in their thirties vaccines 1139 01:07:08,920 --> 01:07:13,120 Speaker 1: before people who are senior citizens. Except the teachers unions 1140 01:07:13,320 --> 01:07:16,920 Speaker 1: demanded it, and city government bent the knee, got oh, 1141 01:07:17,000 --> 01:07:19,600 Speaker 1: we got to protect our teachers. Yeah, you got to 1142 01:07:19,600 --> 01:07:22,840 Speaker 1: protect your teachers who are senior citizens. No doubt how 1143 01:07:22,840 --> 01:07:25,320 Speaker 1: many of them are there, They retire so very few. 1144 01:07:26,880 --> 01:07:30,480 Speaker 1: You just got to protect senior citizens, period. But nope, 1145 01:07:31,040 --> 01:07:35,680 Speaker 1: Democrat Party is, as you know, completely owned by teachers 1146 01:07:35,800 --> 01:07:40,280 Speaker 1: unions in major cities across the country. So they're not 1147 01:07:40,320 --> 01:07:43,200 Speaker 1: going to do anything other than make them happy. So 1148 01:07:43,360 --> 01:07:45,600 Speaker 1: thirty five year olds and twenty five year olds get 1149 01:07:45,600 --> 01:07:48,160 Speaker 1: to show up easily at a place approved by the 1150 01:07:48,160 --> 01:07:50,240 Speaker 1: teachers union, they get their shot, they're good to go. 1151 01:07:50,840 --> 01:07:54,840 Speaker 1: While last night, my father, among them, hundreds, if not 1152 01:07:55,000 --> 01:07:59,120 Speaker 1: maybe a thousand or two senior citizens, froze their butts 1153 01:07:59,160 --> 01:08:01,120 Speaker 1: off for hours and hours and hours, and some of 1154 01:08:01,120 --> 01:08:05,760 Speaker 1: them didn't even end up getting vaccine. That's the government 1155 01:08:05,800 --> 01:08:09,840 Speaker 1: in action. That's the government that the Biden Harris team 1156 01:08:09,880 --> 01:08:12,840 Speaker 1: wants to put in charge of all aspects of your life. 1157 01:08:13,040 --> 01:08:16,640 Speaker 1: This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast.

My position as governor 1161 01:08:29,479 --> 01:08:31,679 Speaker 1: is very simple. I represent the people of the state 1162 01:08:31,720 --> 01:08:34,760 Speaker 1: of New York. That's my whole job description. I'm here 1163 01:08:34,760 --> 01:08:38,439 Speaker 1: to represent them and to fight for them, and they 1164 01:08:38,479 --> 01:08:43,200 Speaker 1: have been abused by Washington for four years and it 1165 01:08:43,240 --> 01:08:45,720 Speaker 1: has to stop, and it has to stop now. And 1166 01:08:45,880 --> 01:08:49,200 Speaker 1: all we want is what's fair. I said that there 1167 01:08:49,200 --> 01:08:54,400 Speaker 1: are two options, worst case scenario, fair funding and one caveat. 1168 01:08:55,200 --> 01:08:59,000 Speaker 1: The caveat is if Washington doesn't provide the New York 1169 01:08:59,040 --> 01:09:01,759 Speaker 1: State without fair share of funding, We're going to pursue 1170 01:09:01,840 --> 01:09:06,719 Speaker 1: litigation because I cannot in good faith represent the people 1171 01:09:06,720 --> 01:09:10,120 Speaker 1: of this state and know that they are being harmed 1172 01:09:10,800 --> 01:09:14,280 Speaker 1: and know that they're being treated unfairly, and not do 1173 01:09:14,600 --> 01:09:19,040 Speaker 1: everything within my power to try to do what is 1174 01:09:19,160 --> 01:09:22,479 Speaker 1: right by New York. Maybe get vaccines into the arms 1175 01:09:22,479 --> 01:09:26,759 Speaker 1: of senior citizens faster, you idiot. Maybe don't send people 1176 01:09:26,760 --> 01:09:29,599 Speaker 1: who are COVID positive, who are seniors back into nursing 1177 01:09:29,640 --> 01:09:35,519 Speaker 1: homes to infect others in large numbers, jackass. No, But 1178 01:09:35,600 --> 01:09:39,200 Speaker 1: instead we've got Cuomo here giving the usual thing. Just 1179 01:09:39,280 --> 01:09:41,880 Speaker 1: that all this guy focuses on is the optics and 1180 01:09:41,920 --> 01:09:44,320 Speaker 1: the politics. What is this going to do for him? 1181 01:09:44,360 --> 01:09:46,000 Speaker 1: How will this play in the media, What we'll do 1182 01:09:46,000 --> 01:09:49,120 Speaker 1: for him in the polls? New York has been a 1183 01:09:49,200 --> 01:09:54,200 Speaker 1: cautionary tale. During COVID, topped about everything about our response, 1184 01:09:54,400 --> 01:10:01,320 Speaker 1: the under preparation, the overreaction, the extended lockdowns, moving goalposts. 1185 01:10:01,720 --> 01:10:05,080 Speaker 1: Same thing in California, same thing in a lot of states, 1186 01:10:05,880 --> 01:10:08,960 Speaker 1: a lot of states. They're going to fight, fight like 1187 01:10:09,080 --> 01:10:13,080 Speaker 1: crazy to prevent people from really seeing what happened and 1188 01:10:13,120 --> 01:10:17,799 Speaker 1: holding them fully accountable for all of this. Governor Cuomo 1189 01:10:17,880 --> 01:10:19,719 Speaker 1: is going to have his hands full because the record 1190 01:10:19,720 --> 01:10:24,679 Speaker 1: that he's set forth is such an abomination. But we'll 1191 01:10:25,200 --> 01:10:28,200 Speaker 1: we'll have to see if I mean, democrats in this 1192 01:10:28,280 --> 01:10:31,160 Speaker 1: state are tast still like him. His numbers have gone up. 1193 01:10:31,360 --> 01:10:33,040 Speaker 1: I don't know what's wrong with these people. I don't 1194 01:10:33,040 --> 01:10:36,880 Speaker 1: know what delusional world they're living in. This is the 1195 01:10:37,000 --> 01:10:42,360 Speaker 1: Buck Sexton Show podcast. Follow Buck on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. 1196 01:10:43,320 --> 01:10:45,920 Speaker 1: Wear a mask, they say, but what about double mask? 1197 01:10:46,000 --> 01:10:49,240 Speaker 1: How about triple masks? Why aren't all schools open? And 1198 01:10:49,720 --> 01:10:52,440 Speaker 1: our lockdowns are really going to end after the vaccine? 1199 01:10:52,960 --> 01:10:57,080 Speaker 1: Our next guest explains this and more. Carol Markowitz is 1200 01:10:57,160 --> 01:10:59,360 Speaker 1: with us. She wrote a piece in the New York 1201 01:10:59,400 --> 01:11:01,920 Speaker 1: Post you need to read, you need to hear about 1202 01:11:01,920 --> 01:11:04,880 Speaker 1: it now. Carol, thanks so much for joining Hi, Thanks 1203 01:11:05,000 --> 01:11:08,080 Speaker 1: much for having me. So let's talk about this. Where 1204 01:11:08,120 --> 01:11:11,000 Speaker 1: are we seeing or what is the argument that you're 1205 01:11:11,040 --> 01:11:15,160 Speaker 1: worried about. Well, I'm concerned that we are heading into 1206 01:11:15,200 --> 01:11:18,439 Speaker 1: a place where we're going to get vaccinated, people are 1207 01:11:18,439 --> 01:11:21,799 Speaker 1: going to have their vaccinations, and yet people are setting 1208 01:11:21,840 --> 01:11:24,519 Speaker 1: us up to continue to live as we are living 1209 01:11:24,600 --> 01:11:27,479 Speaker 1: right now, and that to me is a big concern, 1210 01:11:27,760 --> 01:11:32,280 Speaker 1: especially masking and social distancing, and especially for me as 1211 01:11:32,320 --> 01:11:35,680 Speaker 1: it pertains to kids, because my children have barely been 1212 01:11:35,680 --> 01:11:39,280 Speaker 1: in school for the last year, and so I see 1213 01:11:39,280 --> 01:11:41,639 Speaker 1: this argument starting to get made, and I just want 1214 01:11:41,680 --> 01:11:43,400 Speaker 1: to make sure that it doesn't get a foothold that 1215 01:11:43,439 --> 01:11:45,840 Speaker 1: we're going to just continue doing this even after we 1216 01:11:45,880 --> 01:11:48,439 Speaker 1: are vaccinated, because that makes no sense. I've been worried 1217 01:11:48,479 --> 01:11:52,320 Speaker 1: about this for many months now because I understand the mentality. 1218 01:11:52,800 --> 01:11:57,120 Speaker 1: You know, there is a really a combination of extreme 1219 01:11:57,280 --> 01:12:00,800 Speaker 1: anxiety that has infiltrated a lot of millions and millions 1220 01:12:00,840 --> 01:12:03,719 Speaker 1: of people in this country's minds about COVID and also 1221 01:12:04,200 --> 01:12:07,439 Speaker 1: this kind of virtue signaling. I'm one of the good people. 1222 01:12:07,600 --> 01:12:10,080 Speaker 1: I'm one of the smart people who listens to Fauci 1223 01:12:10,200 --> 01:12:12,160 Speaker 1: and I'll do whatever he says, no matter how stupid 1224 01:12:12,200 --> 01:12:15,000 Speaker 1: and how obviously absurd it may be. And that then 1225 01:12:15,040 --> 01:12:17,719 Speaker 1: brings us to that you mentioned this in your piece, 1226 01:12:18,640 --> 01:12:21,519 Speaker 1: Here's why vaccinated people still need a mask? Was that 1227 01:12:21,640 --> 01:12:24,479 Speaker 1: was a title of a New York Times piece in December. Yes, 1228 01:12:24,560 --> 01:12:27,640 Speaker 1: so they're already starting to say, even even after you 1229 01:12:27,680 --> 01:12:31,960 Speaker 1: get vaccinated, you still have to wear a mask. This 1230 01:12:33,040 --> 01:12:37,920 Speaker 1: this is based on a theory of this virus as 1231 01:12:37,960 --> 01:12:41,920 Speaker 1: somehow different from all other viruses that have a vaccine, 1232 01:12:41,920 --> 01:12:44,519 Speaker 1: a vaccine for them, where you don't worry about this. 1233 01:12:45,560 --> 01:12:47,760 Speaker 1: That's absolutely right. And the thing is in that New 1234 01:12:47,840 --> 01:12:51,400 Speaker 1: York Times piece, if anybody had bothered to repass the headline, 1235 01:12:51,400 --> 01:12:53,679 Speaker 1: which I'm much sure anybody did, they would have found 1236 01:12:53,720 --> 01:12:57,040 Speaker 1: out that it was a study in monkeys where they 1237 01:12:57,040 --> 01:12:59,479 Speaker 1: were given the vaccination, but then they were exposed to 1238 01:12:59,520 --> 01:13:02,160 Speaker 1: a mask of amount of coronavirus. And so these monkeys 1239 01:13:02,160 --> 01:13:04,800 Speaker 1: who are vaccinated still manage to get a little bit 1240 01:13:04,800 --> 01:13:07,240 Speaker 1: of the virus in their nose. Well, maybe let's not 1241 01:13:07,280 --> 01:13:10,160 Speaker 1: expose ourselves on purpose to a massive amount of coronavirus, 1242 01:13:10,240 --> 01:13:13,599 Speaker 1: and then that shouldn't really be an issue. We're looking 1243 01:13:13,600 --> 01:13:17,920 Speaker 1: for these like outlier situations where it's almost impossible to 1244 01:13:17,960 --> 01:13:21,200 Speaker 1: contract it after you're vaccinated. And yes, maybe in some 1245 01:13:21,360 --> 01:13:25,240 Speaker 1: insane situation that might possibly happen, but it doesn't mean 1246 01:13:25,280 --> 01:13:27,200 Speaker 1: we live our lives in fear. There's no such thing 1247 01:13:27,200 --> 01:13:29,240 Speaker 1: as no risk, and I think that's people need to 1248 01:13:29,320 --> 01:13:32,880 Speaker 1: understand going forward. And you're even hearing some of the 1249 01:13:32,920 --> 01:13:35,599 Speaker 1: things that I've raised this and I think you might 1250 01:13:35,640 --> 01:13:37,400 Speaker 1: have even seen some of this on social media what 1251 01:13:37,479 --> 01:13:40,960 Speaker 1: I've said, and this was months ago. It's just a 1252 01:13:41,000 --> 01:13:43,679 Speaker 1: matter of time before they tell us we need more 1253 01:13:43,680 --> 01:13:46,639 Speaker 1: than one mask, and just atter of time before they 1254 01:13:46,680 --> 01:13:50,400 Speaker 1: tell us we need n ninety five masks, which if 1255 01:13:50,439 --> 01:13:52,960 Speaker 1: you go back to the beginning of this was that 1256 01:13:53,080 --> 01:13:56,559 Speaker 1: was the explanation Fauci gave after the fact for why 1257 01:13:56,640 --> 01:13:59,720 Speaker 1: he told us that's right, don't mask up to the 1258 01:13:59,720 --> 01:14:01,840 Speaker 1: general public in the beginning of twenty twenty when this 1259 01:14:01,840 --> 01:14:04,519 Speaker 1: whole thing hit and you're seeing this too, right there, 1260 01:14:04,640 --> 01:14:09,439 Speaker 1: there are now double maskers out there, and everybody should 1261 01:14:09,520 --> 01:14:12,479 Speaker 1: end ninety five masks as as a new These are 1262 01:14:12,520 --> 01:14:16,800 Speaker 1: new lines of thought that are being foisted on us. Yeah, 1263 01:14:16,840 --> 01:14:19,679 Speaker 1: that's right, and you know why two masks, why not five? 1264 01:14:20,360 --> 01:14:23,400 Speaker 1: And so again, as we're reaching the conclusion of this, 1265 01:14:23,520 --> 01:14:27,240 Speaker 1: I think people are getting ever more crazy and I 1266 01:14:27,520 --> 01:14:30,000 Speaker 1: don't want to see this continue. And another thing that 1267 01:14:30,080 --> 01:14:33,599 Speaker 1: I say in my piece again back to kids, is 1268 01:14:33,680 --> 01:14:36,479 Speaker 1: there's no vaccination for kids. There's no They haven't even 1269 01:14:36,520 --> 01:14:40,080 Speaker 1: started trials on children under twelve. So the idea that 1270 01:14:40,800 --> 01:14:42,720 Speaker 1: it's and it is being pushed that kids will be 1271 01:14:42,720 --> 01:14:45,880 Speaker 1: in masks next year in school while presumably the grown 1272 01:14:45,960 --> 01:14:48,280 Speaker 1: ups around them are vaccinated and won't be in masks, 1273 01:14:48,920 --> 01:14:51,080 Speaker 1: is really nuts. And I want to cut that off 1274 01:14:51,120 --> 01:14:54,320 Speaker 1: before it takes hold. I mean here in New York City, 1275 01:14:54,360 --> 01:14:56,880 Speaker 1: just so everybody knows. I know, Deblasio I think, has 1276 01:14:56,920 --> 01:15:00,439 Speaker 1: said a vast majority of New York City schools are open. 1277 01:15:00,920 --> 01:15:04,320 Speaker 1: It's actually something like sixty sixty percent. I mean, almost 1278 01:15:04,320 --> 01:15:06,840 Speaker 1: half of schools are not open. And that's and that's 1279 01:15:06,840 --> 01:15:09,439 Speaker 1: the only elementary school. Middle schools and high schools have 1280 01:15:09,479 --> 01:15:11,920 Speaker 1: not been opened from November. The ones that we're even 1281 01:15:11,960 --> 01:15:15,559 Speaker 1: ever open to begin with. UM. It is a dire 1282 01:15:15,680 --> 01:15:18,439 Speaker 1: situation and needs to be taken seriously, and of course 1283 01:15:18,439 --> 01:15:21,960 Speaker 1: our political elected officials do not. It's it's amazing. Also, 1284 01:15:22,000 --> 01:15:24,960 Speaker 1: you know, I have had my family in mind. My 1285 01:15:25,000 --> 01:15:27,240 Speaker 1: father tried to get vaccinated out and out in Staten 1286 01:15:27,280 --> 01:15:29,680 Speaker 1: Island the only place he could go. He had to 1287 01:15:29,680 --> 01:15:31,960 Speaker 1: wait a line for hours and hours in the freezing cold, 1288 01:15:32,400 --> 01:15:34,400 Speaker 1: and they said it's going to be hours more and 1289 01:15:34,400 --> 01:15:36,040 Speaker 1: he finally just said, I just can't. I can't do 1290 01:15:36,080 --> 01:15:38,160 Speaker 1: this anymore. Like you know, he's a senior citizen, the 1291 01:15:38,160 --> 01:15:41,160 Speaker 1: guy in his seventies, and I got I've got another 1292 01:15:41,479 --> 01:15:44,520 Speaker 1: family member as a cousin who works in the school system, 1293 01:15:44,760 --> 01:15:48,400 Speaker 1: got vaccinated a couple of weeks ago. No problem for her, zoom, 1294 01:15:48,400 --> 01:15:49,960 Speaker 1: you know, for for the risk of Look, I don't 1295 01:15:50,000 --> 01:15:51,479 Speaker 1: blame her. She has to do it's her job. Of course, 1296 01:15:51,479 --> 01:15:54,920 Speaker 1: that's fine, Yes, but I mean we're talking about the 1297 01:15:54,960 --> 01:15:59,920 Speaker 1: people making these decisions. It's crazy. Yeah, And again I'm 1298 01:16:00,120 --> 01:16:02,240 Speaker 1: I'm very happy to have teachers being at the front 1299 01:16:02,240 --> 01:16:04,280 Speaker 1: of the line to get vaccinated. As long as we 1300 01:16:04,520 --> 01:16:06,680 Speaker 1: get back to work and open the schools, that's the 1301 01:16:06,760 --> 01:16:08,960 Speaker 1: priority here. If you get vaccinated to sit at home 1302 01:16:08,960 --> 01:16:12,760 Speaker 1: for another year and zoom, I'm not into that. And well, 1303 01:16:12,760 --> 01:16:14,639 Speaker 1: it just shows that the power of the teachers unions 1304 01:16:14,680 --> 01:16:18,080 Speaker 1: have and this is now becoming more apparent to everybody 1305 01:16:18,080 --> 01:16:21,000 Speaker 1: that people are using influence to get preferred groups to 1306 01:16:21,120 --> 01:16:23,559 Speaker 1: the frontal line. Not based on you know, we're all 1307 01:16:23,560 --> 01:16:25,880 Speaker 1: in this together, we're all human beings of equal worth 1308 01:16:25,880 --> 01:16:30,760 Speaker 1: and dignity, you know, the kind of core epidemiological ethics here. 1309 01:16:31,160 --> 01:16:32,760 Speaker 1: But you know, I just saw it to day. Oh yeah, 1310 01:16:32,760 --> 01:16:35,360 Speaker 1: I like NBA players might get vaccinated in the next 1311 01:16:35,360 --> 01:16:38,240 Speaker 1: few weeks according to their commission, right because because because 1312 01:16:38,240 --> 01:16:41,560 Speaker 1: there because if you're a ultra like you know, athletics, 1313 01:16:41,560 --> 01:16:45,760 Speaker 1: super healthy twenty five year old, you really need the vaccine. Well, 1314 01:16:45,800 --> 01:16:48,680 Speaker 1: what's funny is that New York started with people who 1315 01:16:48,680 --> 01:16:51,960 Speaker 1: are pretty low risk, I mean even healthcare officiality, which 1316 01:16:51,960 --> 01:16:55,000 Speaker 1: you know, I'm for starting with them obviously, but a 1317 01:16:55,000 --> 01:16:57,479 Speaker 1: lot of them didn't want the vaccine, and a lot 1318 01:16:57,520 --> 01:16:59,200 Speaker 1: of them turned it down. I mean a lot of 1319 01:16:59,280 --> 01:17:01,720 Speaker 1: nursing homes always didn't want it. And so when they 1320 01:17:01,760 --> 01:17:06,120 Speaker 1: started finally vaccinating elderly people, they had a surge of appointments, 1321 01:17:06,160 --> 01:17:09,360 Speaker 1: and so they finally hit the demographic that actually wants 1322 01:17:09,400 --> 01:17:12,479 Speaker 1: this vaccine, who needs the vaccine, And now they're seeing 1323 01:17:12,520 --> 01:17:15,040 Speaker 1: the results of that, people are actually you know, wanting 1324 01:17:15,080 --> 01:17:17,759 Speaker 1: to get it. Why have there been and we're speaking 1325 01:17:17,760 --> 01:17:20,519 Speaker 1: to Carol Mark, Whit's New York Post columnists be where 1326 01:17:20,520 --> 01:17:22,640 Speaker 1: the experts who want to go on lockdowns forever as 1327 01:17:22,720 --> 01:17:24,799 Speaker 1: or piece. I highly recommend it to all who are listening. 1328 01:17:24,960 --> 01:17:28,080 Speaker 1: It's up the New York Post dot com. Carol. Why 1329 01:17:28,160 --> 01:17:32,160 Speaker 1: has this been such a the rollout of the vaccine 1330 01:17:32,280 --> 01:17:35,960 Speaker 1: in New York? I mean, ever, it was universally I 1331 01:17:36,000 --> 01:17:37,840 Speaker 1: think understood as a mess a week ago. Now they're 1332 01:17:37,840 --> 01:17:41,800 Speaker 1: saying it's gotten better. How could they not get this right? Well, 1333 01:17:41,840 --> 01:17:44,360 Speaker 1: I think they were just not focusing on what matters, 1334 01:17:44,400 --> 01:17:47,439 Speaker 1: which is to vaccinate at risk people. They were trying 1335 01:17:47,439 --> 01:17:50,800 Speaker 1: to like wrong historical injustices through the vaccine process, and 1336 01:17:50,840 --> 01:17:53,920 Speaker 1: that's just not really what it's all about. If they 1337 01:17:53,960 --> 01:17:56,280 Speaker 1: had just done it by age, like other states did 1338 01:17:56,439 --> 01:17:59,320 Speaker 1: and other states who have done it successfully, that would 1339 01:17:59,360 --> 01:18:02,240 Speaker 1: have been the better process. But instead, we you know, 1340 01:18:02,320 --> 01:18:05,439 Speaker 1: had some boondozzle where you had to have the right 1341 01:18:05,479 --> 01:18:09,599 Speaker 1: combination of you know, historical injustice factors working against you, 1342 01:18:09,680 --> 01:18:13,040 Speaker 1: and that's the process they were they were using. Um, 1343 01:18:13,640 --> 01:18:15,639 Speaker 1: you know, it was obvious that was going to fail 1344 01:18:15,840 --> 01:18:19,479 Speaker 1: because again it's the people who need the vaccine, who 1345 01:18:19,479 --> 01:18:21,599 Speaker 1: want the vaccine are the ones who are at risk, 1346 01:18:21,640 --> 01:18:23,759 Speaker 1: and they weren't the ones getting the vaccine at the beginning. 1347 01:18:24,200 --> 01:18:28,080 Speaker 1: You mentioned in your piece that the guy who's kind 1348 01:18:28,080 --> 01:18:32,080 Speaker 1: of tapped as President Joe Biden's I mean, I guess, 1349 01:18:32,080 --> 01:18:34,599 Speaker 1: I guess maybe doctor Fauci will be the coronavirus are 1350 01:18:34,680 --> 01:18:36,519 Speaker 1: which I think is also a horrible decision. But this 1351 01:18:36,600 --> 01:18:40,400 Speaker 1: other guy, Andy's Slavitt, who's going to be a senior 1352 01:18:40,439 --> 01:18:44,120 Speaker 1: advisor to Biden's COVID response team. A few weeks ago, 1353 01:18:44,240 --> 01:18:48,720 Speaker 1: he wrote on Twitter, quote, we should be even more 1354 01:18:48,800 --> 01:18:52,799 Speaker 1: careful with kids. They should circulate less or will become 1355 01:18:52,960 --> 01:18:57,960 Speaker 1: vectors like mosquitos carrying a tropical disease. Of course, they 1356 01:18:57,960 --> 01:19:00,800 Speaker 1: can become sick themselves this way. I'm not sure what 1357 01:19:00,800 --> 01:19:03,679 Speaker 1: I would say about schools besides wishing Trump had built 1358 01:19:03,720 --> 01:19:06,519 Speaker 1: testing up a couple of things. One, I think that's 1359 01:19:06,520 --> 01:19:10,679 Speaker 1: just bizarre and ignores all the science that we've seen, 1360 01:19:10,720 --> 01:19:12,880 Speaker 1: all the data that we've seen that shows that children 1361 01:19:12,920 --> 01:19:15,160 Speaker 1: are at almost zero risk. I mean, it is true 1362 01:19:15,200 --> 01:19:18,280 Speaker 1: that the flu, the common flu, is more dangerous to 1363 01:19:18,400 --> 01:19:21,400 Speaker 1: children under the age of eighteen than COVID nineteen. That 1364 01:19:21,600 --> 01:19:25,840 Speaker 1: is a globally established and known fact. And so that's 1365 01:19:25,880 --> 01:19:27,479 Speaker 1: one problem I have with this guy is saying. But 1366 01:19:27,520 --> 01:19:32,040 Speaker 1: also beyond that, why aren't people likes of a slavit 1367 01:19:32,040 --> 01:19:35,280 Speaker 1: and the incoming by administration screaming from the rooftops to 1368 01:19:35,360 --> 01:19:37,559 Speaker 1: open schools. It's not because of the science. So I 1369 01:19:37,560 --> 01:19:41,360 Speaker 1: think we both know what's going on. Yeah, he's a hysteric. 1370 01:19:41,520 --> 01:19:45,679 Speaker 1: He has these intense threads on Twitter that get applauded. 1371 01:19:45,720 --> 01:19:49,000 Speaker 1: He's not a scientist, he's not a doctor, and he 1372 01:19:49,800 --> 01:19:53,840 Speaker 1: is ever in favor of harsher, stricter, longer lockdowns. He 1373 01:19:54,080 --> 01:19:58,040 Speaker 1: has had ideas like shutting down public transport systems across 1374 01:19:58,080 --> 01:20:00,920 Speaker 1: different cities, even though obviously he lives suburbs and drives 1375 01:20:00,920 --> 01:20:05,720 Speaker 1: a car. He is just known for being extremely hysterical 1376 01:20:05,840 --> 01:20:08,439 Speaker 1: about COVID and it's a real bad sign that he's 1377 01:20:08,479 --> 01:20:11,080 Speaker 1: going to be heading and you know, advising on any 1378 01:20:11,120 --> 01:20:14,640 Speaker 1: COVID measures, because he's going to take it in the 1379 01:20:14,640 --> 01:20:16,720 Speaker 1: opposite direction of where we should be going with the 1380 01:20:16,800 --> 01:20:19,960 Speaker 1: vaccine actually being happening across the country. I know you've 1381 01:20:19,960 --> 01:20:22,439 Speaker 1: spent some time down in Florida. Just can you give 1382 01:20:22,520 --> 01:20:24,800 Speaker 1: us a sense of, Yeah, how's it going down there 1383 01:20:24,800 --> 01:20:28,280 Speaker 1: as opposed to your New York City time. Well, I think, 1384 01:20:28,720 --> 01:20:31,599 Speaker 1: and I wrote last my column last week, Florida is 1385 01:20:31,760 --> 01:20:35,400 Speaker 1: doing things I think very right. They absolutely take it 1386 01:20:35,439 --> 01:20:38,679 Speaker 1: seriously in Florida. I think New Yorkers we've been told 1387 01:20:38,720 --> 01:20:40,599 Speaker 1: that it's kind of a free for all in Florida 1388 01:20:40,640 --> 01:20:43,960 Speaker 1: and it's just very loose. But I haven't found that 1389 01:20:44,000 --> 01:20:47,479 Speaker 1: to be true at all. I definitely see mask wearing 1390 01:20:47,479 --> 01:20:49,679 Speaker 1: in all the situations that I think masks should be worn, 1391 01:20:50,280 --> 01:20:52,040 Speaker 1: but they're not wearing it, like when they're alone on 1392 01:20:52,080 --> 01:20:54,040 Speaker 1: the street, like I see all the time in Brooklyn. 1393 01:20:54,080 --> 01:20:56,960 Speaker 1: You'll see somebody walking down the street by themselves, nobody 1394 01:20:56,960 --> 01:21:00,479 Speaker 1: anywhere near them, masked and you know, ready for the 1395 01:21:00,560 --> 01:21:03,719 Speaker 1: coronavirus to jump out at them from behind a push. 1396 01:21:04,560 --> 01:21:06,240 Speaker 1: I didn't see that in Florida. And I just saw 1397 01:21:06,280 --> 01:21:09,800 Speaker 1: a sanity that is missing from the process in New York. 1398 01:21:09,960 --> 01:21:13,200 Speaker 1: And it just didn't seem like masking was a religion 1399 01:21:13,240 --> 01:21:15,120 Speaker 1: in Florida and the way that it is in New York. 1400 01:21:15,160 --> 01:21:17,439 Speaker 1: And that was very nice to see. And I feel 1401 01:21:17,479 --> 01:21:21,320 Speaker 1: like people are gonna it's a religious belief for some Yeah, 1402 01:21:21,439 --> 01:21:23,920 Speaker 1: they don't want there's almost a there's some people that 1403 01:21:24,040 --> 01:21:26,519 Speaker 1: don't seem to want to let it go. I've even 1404 01:21:26,560 --> 01:21:30,360 Speaker 1: seen the beginnings, the early rumbles on the internet from 1405 01:21:30,840 --> 01:21:34,160 Speaker 1: people that are journalists are ever following about how, you know, 1406 01:21:34,479 --> 01:21:37,320 Speaker 1: we really should consider masking up for the flu season 1407 01:21:37,360 --> 01:21:40,840 Speaker 1: as well. Now that really is the ethical thing. Oh 1408 01:21:40,880 --> 01:21:43,599 Speaker 1: you're seeing that too. Yeah. I want to scream because 1409 01:21:43,640 --> 01:21:46,920 Speaker 1: Carol I was telling people at the beginning of this, Hey, 1410 01:21:47,360 --> 01:21:49,680 Speaker 1: every year, we accept that there are flu deaths and 1411 01:21:49,720 --> 01:21:51,840 Speaker 1: tens of thousands of people do die from the flu, 1412 01:21:52,160 --> 01:21:55,160 Speaker 1: and we never thought masking is so obvious as a 1413 01:21:55,200 --> 01:21:57,320 Speaker 1: public health tool that we never thought that we needed 1414 01:21:57,360 --> 01:21:59,920 Speaker 1: to have that mandate in this country. And they said, oh, 1415 01:22:00,040 --> 01:22:02,519 Speaker 1: shot off, nobody, can you know this isn't the flu, 1416 01:22:02,600 --> 01:22:04,519 Speaker 1: this is so much worse, and they just wouldn't deal 1417 01:22:04,560 --> 01:22:06,599 Speaker 1: with the argument. But now we see the arguments actually 1418 01:22:06,720 --> 01:22:09,559 Speaker 1: entirely ethically correct because they are making the case now, 1419 01:22:09,680 --> 01:22:11,840 Speaker 1: oh yeah, we're gonna have to mask up every flu 1420 01:22:11,960 --> 01:22:14,880 Speaker 1: season for the rest of our lives. Yeah. Absolutely, I 1421 01:22:14,880 --> 01:22:18,679 Speaker 1: see that developing, and it's really scary. I think people 1422 01:22:18,680 --> 01:22:21,040 Speaker 1: have decided that there it's possible to live a risk 1423 01:22:21,160 --> 01:22:23,880 Speaker 1: free existence, and I wish people understood that is just 1424 01:22:24,040 --> 01:22:26,880 Speaker 1: not a reality. That is not ever going to happen. 1425 01:22:26,960 --> 01:22:28,920 Speaker 1: You're never going to be risk free, even if you 1426 01:22:29,280 --> 01:22:32,160 Speaker 1: lock yourself in a closet at home. Something can get you. So, 1427 01:22:32,960 --> 01:22:34,759 Speaker 1: you know, I think we need to shadow that belief 1428 01:22:34,760 --> 01:22:40,400 Speaker 1: for people. I totally agree, Carol, great piece. Beware who 1429 01:22:40,439 --> 01:22:45,040 Speaker 1: want lockdowns to go on forever. New York Post dot Com.

I mean, yeah, this is this 1510 01:26:50,600 --> 01:26:54,880 Speaker 1: is self serving for me, but it's also serving conservatism. 1511 01:26:54,920 --> 01:26:59,280 Speaker 1: It's conserving, it's serving the movement as well. Because if 1512 01:26:59,320 --> 01:27:04,640 Speaker 1: we can have companies where CEOs are outspoken Republicans and 1513 01:27:04,680 --> 01:27:08,599 Speaker 1: are and are defenders of conservative values, we're done forget 1514 01:27:08,640 --> 01:27:12,519 Speaker 1: about politics, We're finished, We're through. So Mike Lindell is 1515 01:27:12,560 --> 01:27:14,880 Speaker 1: a guy who stands up and stands strong for it. 1516 01:27:14,920 --> 01:27:17,200 Speaker 1: He believes he's a super nice guy to him in 1517 01:27:17,280 --> 01:27:21,800 Speaker 1: a really a really good individual. So it's very fun. 1518 01:27:21,880 --> 01:27:23,360 Speaker 1: I wanted to bring him on air just because I 1519 01:27:23,400 --> 01:27:26,040 Speaker 1: know they're really going after him right now with these retailers. 1520 01:27:26,040 --> 01:27:28,559 Speaker 1: And that's why you know my pillow dot com promo 1521 01:27:28,600 --> 01:27:31,000 Speaker 1: code buck, I mean, please go do it, Please go 1522 01:27:31,120 --> 01:27:35,240 Speaker 1: use it right now, because that company I don't Mike. 1523 01:27:35,479 --> 01:27:37,679 Speaker 1: The last thing I know Mike Lindell wants to do 1524 01:27:38,200 --> 01:27:41,599 Speaker 1: is have to lay off people because of declining sales. 1525 01:27:41,680 --> 01:27:44,000 Speaker 1: Not because his product is an amazing everyone loves his product, 1526 01:27:44,040 --> 01:27:46,400 Speaker 1: that's why it's such a successful company, but because the 1527 01:27:46,520 --> 01:27:50,320 Speaker 1: left is targeting him and his people all at once 1528 01:27:50,479 --> 01:27:54,519 Speaker 1: because he supports the Republican Party and President Trump. We 1529 01:27:54,560 --> 01:27:57,280 Speaker 1: can't we can't allow that, all right, So this, you know, 1530 01:27:57,520 --> 01:27:59,880 Speaker 1: people say, what can you do? I'm telling you right now, 1531 01:28:00,000 --> 01:28:03,479 Speaker 1: this is an opportunity mipila dot com promo code Buck 1532 01:28:03,560 --> 01:28:07,280 Speaker 1: and yes, that's right capitalism, this is this is serving 1533 01:28:07,320 --> 01:28:10,639 Speaker 1: me the show, it's serving the freedom Buck, Mike Lindell, 1534 01:28:10,760 --> 01:28:14,800 Speaker 1: his people, and America. Because if we can't have companies 1535 01:28:15,160 --> 01:28:18,200 Speaker 1: that are allowed to have CEOs who are Republican founders, 1536 01:28:18,200 --> 01:28:21,240 Speaker 1: who are Trump supporters, well what's the point of anything 1537 01:28:21,280 --> 01:28:24,839 Speaker 1: we're doing right then, everything that they control, everything, unless 1538 01:28:24,920 --> 01:28:28,120 Speaker 1: unless we stand and fight on this issue. So I 1539 01:28:28,160 --> 01:28:30,880 Speaker 1: think it's really important. I wanted to hear from Mike 1540 01:28:31,880 --> 01:28:34,479 Speaker 1: and you know, we're we're going to band together. We 1541 01:28:34,720 --> 01:28:37,160 Speaker 1: conservatives need to take care of each other, watch each 1542 01:28:37,200 --> 01:28:40,200 Speaker 1: other's backs in the storm we're heading into we're in 1543 01:28:40,400 --> 01:28:43,559 Speaker 1: right now in this new administration, we need to take 1544 01:28:43,600 --> 01:28:46,280 Speaker 1: care of each other.

And sports scambling, yeah, I 1563 01:29:50,760 --> 01:29:53,920 Speaker 1: think the sports gambling thing, I don't see how there's 1564 01:29:53,960 --> 01:29:58,160 Speaker 1: any um, I don't understand the argument against if you're 1565 01:29:58,160 --> 01:30:01,200 Speaker 1: gonna allow gambling in some places and Fords again, at 1566 01:30:01,240 --> 01:30:02,880 Speaker 1: some point it's like, well what are we doing here? 1567 01:30:03,560 --> 01:30:05,960 Speaker 1: You know?

That would be messed up. It's like 1600 01:31:34,560 --> 01:31:37,080 Speaker 1: a little you know, it's like train the bunny to 1601 01:31:37,200 --> 01:31:41,519 Speaker 1: run like that, like electronic.

No, they don't eat them, 1615 01:32:18,760 --> 01:32:20,880 Speaker 1: but they used to. Fox hunting used to be a 1616 01:32:20,920 --> 01:32:22,800 Speaker 1: big thing, and they would chase them with dogs. They 1617 01:32:22,800 --> 01:32:24,840 Speaker 1: would have a pack of dogs that would people would 1618 01:32:24,920 --> 01:32:27,360 Speaker 1: ride horses. You know. It's sort of a it's kind 1619 01:32:27,360 --> 01:32:30,160 Speaker 1: of like an English gentleman thing to do back in 1620 01:32:30,200 --> 01:32:33,080 Speaker 1: the day, and it made its way to this country too. Um. 1621 01:32:33,439 --> 01:32:36,360 Speaker 1: But yeah, I think it's been outlawed for some time 1622 01:32:36,520 --> 01:32:39,840 Speaker 1: now in the States, but people will occasionally. I don't know, 1623 01:32:39,880 --> 01:32:42,120 Speaker 1: if you're is it you know, that's a very good question. 1624 01:32:42,439 --> 01:32:46,800 Speaker 1: Is it legal to hunt foxes in America? I have 1625 01:32:46,880 --> 01:32:53,320 Speaker 1: no I have no idea actually right now. Um, so, yeah, 1626 01:32:53,360 --> 01:32:57,679 Speaker 1: that's that's something I gotta find out. No, it's not legal. 1627 01:32:59,280 --> 01:33:01,760 Speaker 1: It says maybe you can shoot them. I don't know. 1628 01:33:02,800 --> 01:33:05,400 Speaker 1: I don't know. It's interesting. It depends on where you are. Anyway, 1629 01:33:05,400 --> 01:33:07,320 Speaker 1: I let my whole point he was just I like foxes, 1630 01:33:07,400 --> 01:33:10,839 Speaker 1: so I think they're cool. I actually follow a TikTok 1631 01:33:10,880 --> 01:33:14,519 Speaker 1: account because I've just embraced this Chinese spying app I'm 1632 01:33:14,520 --> 01:33:16,600 Speaker 1: not telling you to do it, but I already have 1633 01:33:16,680 --> 01:33:19,439 Speaker 1: no privacy and I've you know, I've got I got 1634 01:33:19,520 --> 01:33:21,519 Speaker 1: teams of people that are in all my social media 1635 01:33:21,560 --> 01:33:23,840 Speaker 1: and stuff already, and you know, so it's I, you 1636 01:33:23,880 --> 01:33:25,639 Speaker 1: know what am I hiding from a Chinese at this point? 1637 01:33:27,280 --> 01:33:29,240 Speaker 1: Then again, you can follow buck sex then on TikTok, 1638 01:33:30,800 --> 01:33:33,040 Speaker 1: but there's a there's a it actually might be an 1639 01:33:33,040 --> 01:33:35,559 Speaker 1: Instagram account. I think it's both. And somebody has a pet. 1640 01:33:35,560 --> 01:33:38,320 Speaker 1: It's called Juniper Fox. They have a pet fox like 1641 01:33:38,360 --> 01:33:43,879 Speaker 1: a dog. It's adorable, sounds dangerous. They're kind of small, 1642 01:33:44,080 --> 01:33:45,880 Speaker 1: and I'm sure it probably gives you a little nibbles 1643 01:33:45,880 --> 01:33:48,600 Speaker 1: sometimes got some sharp teeth, but not not really that 1644 01:33:48,760 --> 01:33:51,360 Speaker 1: not really that scary. The thing that I never understand 1645 01:33:52,120 --> 01:33:55,320 Speaker 1: is people who want to have not just a pet 1646 01:33:55,400 --> 01:33:57,920 Speaker 1: snake like that's your own whatever, that's not my thing 1647 01:33:57,960 --> 01:34:02,759 Speaker 1: at all, but a danger you're like a venomous pet snake. 1648 01:34:03,000 --> 01:34:04,960 Speaker 1: That's where I'm just like, what is wrong with people? 1649 01:34:05,000 --> 01:34:08,000 Speaker 1: I don't understand that, because you know what ends up happening, right, 1650 01:34:08,000 --> 01:34:09,880 Speaker 1: Producer Mark. They always make these videos on like the 1651 01:34:09,920 --> 01:34:13,080 Speaker 1: Animal Channel and stuff about it's always like, oh, like 1652 01:34:13,680 --> 01:34:16,880 Speaker 1: i live. I live in like outside of London, and 1653 01:34:16,960 --> 01:34:20,639 Speaker 1: I had this like spitting cobra and oh then one 1654 01:34:20,720 --> 01:34:24,439 Speaker 1: day I just like forgot when I was cleaning his cage, 1655 01:34:25,080 --> 01:34:28,800 Speaker 1: and now I had a spitting cobra like all over 1656 01:34:28,920 --> 01:34:31,920 Speaker 1: my apartment. I didn't know where in my flat. You know. 1657 01:34:32,479 --> 01:34:34,479 Speaker 1: It's like, yeah, dude, don't have a spitting cobra as 1658 01:34:34,479 --> 01:34:36,639 Speaker 1: a pet. Probably a bad idea. It sounds like you're 1659 01:34:36,680 --> 01:34:38,639 Speaker 1: just playing the long game on suicide. If you get 1660 01:34:38,680 --> 01:34:41,519 Speaker 1: a pet snake that's minimous. Yeah, it's it's definitely definitely 1661 01:34:41,560 --> 01:34:44,360 Speaker 1: a risky, risky maneuver. All right, I'm sorry I got 1662 01:34:44,400 --> 01:34:46,760 Speaker 1: distracted from roll clocks. I started thinking about pets, maybe 1663 01:34:46,760 --> 01:34:49,120 Speaker 1: because little miss Tulu was walking around for a second 1664 01:34:49,120 --> 01:34:50,960 Speaker 1: to Lula. Tolula's a dog, by the way, Just so 1665 01:34:51,360 --> 01:34:53,720 Speaker 1: some people, some people ask me, is t Lula your girlfriend? 1666 01:34:53,960 --> 01:34:56,280 Speaker 1: Like no, I do talk about her a lot, but 1667 01:34:56,360 --> 01:34:58,599 Speaker 1: she's not my girlfriend. Well, I mean my girlfriend is 1668 01:34:58,960 --> 01:35:01,400 Speaker 1: my girlfriend is a human in person? Yeah, but there 1669 01:35:01,479 --> 01:35:04,920 Speaker 1: is also the little French bulldog who sleeps for about 1670 01:35:04,920 --> 01:35:06,920 Speaker 1: seventy percent of the day. I'd say she's an old 1671 01:35:06,960 --> 01:35:09,879 Speaker 1: lady now, so she sleeps a lot all right. Pablo, 1672 01:35:10,000 --> 01:35:11,960 Speaker 1: first up in roll call, Hey, Buck, I listen to 1673 01:35:12,040 --> 01:35:15,800 Speaker 1: you daily. I listen because you do speak the truth 1674 01:35:15,880 --> 01:35:19,400 Speaker 1: a lot like Tucker. I'm curious why the National Guard 1675 01:35:19,520 --> 01:35:22,200 Speaker 1: is being used in DC for the Biden inauguration, But 1676 01:35:22,320 --> 01:35:25,360 Speaker 1: when President Trump won there was Antifa with pepper spray 1677 01:35:25,960 --> 01:35:29,000 Speaker 1: chains of people preventing people for entering the National Mall. 1678 01:35:29,600 --> 01:35:32,720 Speaker 1: After the inauguration, there were riots in the streets with 1679 01:35:32,840 --> 01:35:36,000 Speaker 1: cars burning. I guess what I'm saying is the left 1680 01:35:36,040 --> 01:35:38,400 Speaker 1: has no good faith toward conservatives. This is what is 1681 01:35:38,439 --> 01:35:42,439 Speaker 1: dividing the country, not conservative belief shields high. Yeah, Papa. 1682 01:35:42,479 --> 01:35:44,559 Speaker 1: First of all, Pablo, thank you for listening. I appreciate 1683 01:35:44,600 --> 01:35:47,800 Speaker 1: that you appreciate truth because I think in conservative media, 1684 01:35:47,920 --> 01:35:51,120 Speaker 1: for four years of the Trump era, truth was not 1685 01:35:51,360 --> 01:35:55,000 Speaker 1: a not a winning or I should say not the 1686 01:35:55,040 --> 01:36:00,920 Speaker 1: most winning proposition for audience influence and growing your brand. 1687 01:36:01,760 --> 01:36:05,240 Speaker 1: A lot of people was just brow inside of maga 1688 01:36:05,360 --> 01:36:08,120 Speaker 1: as deep as possible. And by the way, I like 1689 01:36:08,240 --> 01:36:10,320 Speaker 1: MAGA with Trump supporters. You all know I'm not I'm 1690 01:36:10,360 --> 01:36:12,680 Speaker 1: not reputing in any of that or backing away from it, 1691 01:36:13,040 --> 01:36:16,040 Speaker 1: but I would say things like nepotism is bad now 1692 01:36:16,080 --> 01:36:18,519 Speaker 1: and I've been saying that for years. Guys. I couldn't 1693 01:36:18,560 --> 01:36:22,160 Speaker 1: go along with this whole, whole Javanka thing, Jared, Ivanka 1694 01:36:22,240 --> 01:36:25,800 Speaker 1: and the White House. You know, I was never I 1695 01:36:25,880 --> 01:36:27,519 Speaker 1: never thought this was a good idea, and I knew 1696 01:36:27,600 --> 01:36:29,679 Speaker 1: Jared and Ivanka before all these other people did pretty 1697 01:36:29,720 --> 01:36:31,960 Speaker 1: much before they went to the White House. I just 1698 01:36:32,000 --> 01:36:35,080 Speaker 1: couldn't support it, and I was right. And I think 1699 01:36:35,080 --> 01:36:37,240 Speaker 1: now that Trump's no longer president, people might say, wow, 1700 01:36:37,280 --> 01:36:39,479 Speaker 1: Buck was right about that, Like we should have said, hey, 1701 01:36:39,840 --> 01:36:42,400 Speaker 1: you know, people, people around the president with influence should 1702 01:36:42,400 --> 01:36:44,160 Speaker 1: have been willing to say, you can't hire your kids 1703 01:36:44,160 --> 01:36:46,920 Speaker 1: and make them the most powerful officials in the United 1704 01:36:46,960 --> 01:36:49,920 Speaker 1: States government after you. But that's what happened, and a 1705 01:36:50,000 --> 01:36:52,679 Speaker 1: lot of the very bad decision making was a result 1706 01:36:52,720 --> 01:36:57,200 Speaker 1: of that. So this wasn't a minor thing. So people say, oh, Buck, 1707 01:36:57,200 --> 01:37:00,320 Speaker 1: when did you speak the truth? Things like that? Okay 1708 01:37:00,560 --> 01:37:04,000 Speaker 1: things and no, I got heat. My inbox was full 1709 01:37:04,040 --> 01:37:06,360 Speaker 1: of people, Buck, Oh oh, he could only trust, he 1710 01:37:06,400 --> 01:37:09,680 Speaker 1: could only trust his family members, really could have trusted me, 1711 01:37:10,760 --> 01:37:13,200 Speaker 1: didn't didn't want to bring me in. Would have if 1712 01:37:13,240 --> 01:37:19,320 Speaker 1: you if you needed somebody with them the fortitude down below, 1713 01:37:19,320 --> 01:37:21,800 Speaker 1: if you know what I mean. To speak the truth 1714 01:37:21,800 --> 01:37:24,320 Speaker 1: to the Trumpster, I would have been able to do it, 1715 01:37:24,560 --> 01:37:27,760 Speaker 1: but didn't want to bring me in, didn't didn't bring 1716 01:37:27,760 --> 01:37:30,200 Speaker 1: me into the mix. And about I didn't ask. I'm 1717 01:37:30,240 --> 01:37:33,000 Speaker 1: not saying that, but you know, there were people who 1718 01:37:33,040 --> 01:37:35,200 Speaker 1: he could have picked. I'm just using myself as an example. 1719 01:37:35,200 --> 01:37:36,920 Speaker 1: There people he could have picked to be around him, 1720 01:37:36,920 --> 01:37:40,000 Speaker 1: to advise him. But a lot of yes men, a 1721 01:37:40,040 --> 01:37:42,280 Speaker 1: lot of people that were just whatever the Trumpster wants, 1722 01:37:42,320 --> 01:37:45,040 Speaker 1: the Trumpster gets and that worked on a lot of things, 1723 01:37:45,400 --> 01:37:49,559 Speaker 1: but on some very important things it did not. It 1724 01:37:49,640 --> 01:37:53,479 Speaker 1: did not. So the truth is, it is a is 1725 01:37:53,520 --> 01:37:58,679 Speaker 1: a central uh. It is the focal point of this show. 1726 01:37:59,360 --> 01:38:02,200 Speaker 1: The truth is I see it always, and you know, 1727 01:38:02,479 --> 01:38:04,639 Speaker 1: I'll take the heat. I'll take the hits with that too. 1728 01:38:06,160 --> 01:38:08,000 Speaker 1: I took a lot of hits after the I took 1729 01:38:08,000 --> 01:38:09,760 Speaker 1: a lot of heat from people saying that I wasn't 1730 01:38:09,800 --> 01:38:12,960 Speaker 1: strong enough on the election fraud issue. And I said, oh, look, 1731 01:38:13,240 --> 01:38:15,160 Speaker 1: give me, show me the evidence, just prove this to me. 1732 01:38:15,840 --> 01:38:18,519 Speaker 1: I'm all about finding out that this was, that there 1733 01:38:18,560 --> 01:38:22,519 Speaker 1: was this big fraud, but it didn't materialize. You know, 1734 01:38:22,520 --> 01:38:24,920 Speaker 1: if someone tells if there's a news story. If a 1735 01:38:24,960 --> 01:38:27,599 Speaker 1: government official comes forward and says, hey, you know, I've 1736 01:38:27,640 --> 01:38:31,240 Speaker 1: got a videotape that's showing you know, Democrats breaking into 1737 01:38:31,280 --> 01:38:34,040 Speaker 1: the RNC the night before the election, and they're all 1738 01:38:34,080 --> 01:38:36,479 Speaker 1: saying this, I'm gonna say, okay, well that's terrible. Let 1739 01:38:36,560 --> 01:38:38,600 Speaker 1: let's see that video. If they say, well, hold on, 1740 01:38:38,640 --> 01:38:40,439 Speaker 1: hold on, we're getting everything lined up and its okay, 1741 01:38:40,479 --> 01:38:43,000 Speaker 1: we'll show me that video at some point. If they 1742 01:38:43,000 --> 01:38:46,040 Speaker 1: don't produce it, I gotta stop saying, okay, I believe it, 1743 01:38:47,080 --> 01:38:49,120 Speaker 1: or have at least got to stop saying I expect 1744 01:38:49,160 --> 01:38:52,720 Speaker 1: there to be government action on this or as a 1745 01:38:52,760 --> 01:38:55,639 Speaker 1: result of this. Frank writes, and I want to thank you. 1746 01:38:56,160 --> 01:38:59,160 Speaker 1: Some time ago you commented and emphasized on how peanut 1747 01:38:59,200 --> 01:39:03,240 Speaker 1: butter has a lot of calories. It's true, Frank, a 1748 01:39:03,360 --> 01:39:06,760 Speaker 1: lot account. I never forgot that. Well, I love peanut butter. 1749 01:39:06,800 --> 01:39:09,040 Speaker 1: It has always been a major part of my diet morning, noon, 1750 01:39:09,080 --> 01:39:11,679 Speaker 1: and night. I love snacking on it with crackers around 1751 01:39:11,760 --> 01:39:15,160 Speaker 1: nine pm. Well, you're comment stuck with me. In last September, 1752 01:39:15,200 --> 01:39:17,839 Speaker 1: I finally decided to do something about it. I almost 1753 01:39:17,840 --> 01:39:20,960 Speaker 1: completely stopped eating it. I bike regularly and could not 1754 01:39:21,120 --> 01:39:23,320 Speaker 1: for the life of me lose extra weight, so I 1755 01:39:23,360 --> 01:39:26,720 Speaker 1: figured a change was necessary. Well, the weight came off 1756 01:39:26,840 --> 01:39:29,439 Speaker 1: little by little, but it has now been twenty pounds. 1757 01:39:30,040 --> 01:39:32,400 Speaker 1: I weighed the same I did twenty five years ago. 1758 01:39:32,439 --> 01:39:34,599 Speaker 1: The weight is still coming off slowly. My diet has 1759 01:39:34,600 --> 01:39:39,280 Speaker 1: barely changed except for peanut butter. Well, Frank, look at 1760 01:39:39,280 --> 01:39:42,720 Speaker 1: this producer Mark, another satisfied Team Buck customer, Well, we're 1761 01:39:42,720 --> 01:39:46,519 Speaker 1: gonna have to start a fitness podcast and me.

I'm actually trying 1765 01:39:53,560 --> 01:39:56,800 Speaker 1: to trim down these days. I've got a one of 1766 01:39:56,800 --> 01:39:59,240 Speaker 1: these like sort of frozen meal delivery services that they've 1767 01:39:59,240 --> 01:40:01,080 Speaker 1: set up in New York work that I'm trying to 1768 01:40:01,080 --> 01:40:04,800 Speaker 1: eat really only that because I love cooking. Don't get 1769 01:40:04,800 --> 01:40:07,280 Speaker 1: me wrong, but when I cook for myself, it's like 1770 01:40:07,320 --> 01:40:10,040 Speaker 1: the I'm the chef who's nibbling as he's cooking, and 1771 01:40:10,080 --> 01:40:12,479 Speaker 1: I always making enough for four people, even if it's 1772 01:40:12,520 --> 01:40:14,560 Speaker 1: only for two. And then I get a little a 1773 01:40:14,560 --> 01:40:16,760 Speaker 1: little late night snack, and you know, and then if 1774 01:40:16,760 --> 01:40:18,840 Speaker 1: you're cooking. You gotta make dessert, right, Producer Mark. I 1775 01:40:18,880 --> 01:40:22,360 Speaker 1: mean we're not savages of court to make dessert. Yeah, 1776 01:40:22,479 --> 01:40:26,559 Speaker 1: So I was. I was putting away way too many 1777 01:40:26,920 --> 01:40:32,040 Speaker 1: perfectly seared seasoned ribis on my own.

As I sit in a talk next to 1818 01:42:22,360 --> 01:42:24,840 Speaker 1: other National Guards been, I have to take issue with 1819 01:42:24,920 --> 01:42:28,240 Speaker 1: Brandon Webb's comments. While yes, there are quite a few 1820 01:42:28,360 --> 01:42:30,519 Speaker 1: nineteen year old kids among us, there are plenty of 1821 01:42:30,560 --> 01:42:34,200 Speaker 1: soldiers here who have multiple combat deployments under their belts. 1822 01:42:34,680 --> 01:42:37,240 Speaker 1: They are disciplined and just as qualified as their active 1823 01:42:37,320 --> 01:42:39,639 Speaker 1: duty brethren. Love the show and keep up the great 1824 01:42:39,640 --> 01:42:44,519 Speaker 1: workshields high, Alan, I'll pass this one along on to Brandon. 1825 01:42:45,080 --> 01:42:47,880 Speaker 1: I think you are correct in this one here. Brandon, 1826 01:42:47,920 --> 01:42:49,599 Speaker 1: as you all know, is a good friend of mine. 1827 01:42:50,520 --> 01:42:54,519 Speaker 1: But I know on that one, I think, I mean, 1828 01:42:54,560 --> 01:42:56,879 Speaker 1: I know what you're telling me. It's true. So maybe Brandon, 1829 01:42:57,320 --> 01:42:59,759 Speaker 1: I'll pass this along to Brandon. Let him respond for himself. 1830 01:42:59,760 --> 01:43:02,640 Speaker 1: It's a point. But look, he's a seal, and you 1831 01:43:02,680 --> 01:43:05,680 Speaker 1: know he's or a former seal, and so he's got 1832 01:43:05,680 --> 01:43:10,559 Speaker 1: a little that former seal vibe, you know. But yes, 1833 01:43:10,680 --> 01:43:12,840 Speaker 1: I know they're National guardsman who won have sort of 1834 01:43:12,960 --> 01:43:17,840 Speaker 1: really as real deal as it gets, combat deployments and 1835 01:43:17,880 --> 01:43:20,280 Speaker 1: they're still in the National Guard, and that is a fact. 1836 01:43:20,280 --> 01:43:22,320 Speaker 1: And I know that I've been out. I've been out 1837 01:43:22,320 --> 01:43:25,280 Speaker 1: in the field when there's National Guard out there, so 1838 01:43:25,439 --> 01:43:27,439 Speaker 1: I know what you're saying. My friend, thank you Alan 1839 01:43:27,479 --> 01:43:30,960 Speaker 1: for your service. Please thank all the National Guard's been 1840 01:43:31,000 --> 01:43:34,120 Speaker 1: with you for their service and tell them it's from me. 1841 01:43:35,479 --> 01:43:38,280 Speaker 1: Brian hey Buck, I've noticed something new that Facebook has 1842 01:43:38,280 --> 01:43:40,440 Speaker 1: been doing in order to push the left wing agenda. 1843 01:43:40,520 --> 01:43:42,840 Speaker 1: I'm curious, you know if anyone else has noticed the same. 1844 01:43:43,320 --> 01:43:45,479 Speaker 1: Scrolling through my news feed, I keep seeing posts from 1845 01:43:45,560 --> 01:43:48,360 Speaker 1: left wing groups and individuals that I don't follow, from 1846 01:43:48,400 --> 01:43:51,280 Speaker 1: congressmen to special interests. Turns out the reason I'm seeing 1847 01:43:51,280 --> 01:43:53,360 Speaker 1: them is because I have a friend who comments on them, 1848 01:43:53,640 --> 01:43:56,000 Speaker 1: so it assumes I might have similar interests. Here's the kicker. 1849 01:43:56,120 --> 01:43:58,400 Speaker 1: I don't really know the guy and the only Facebook 1850 01:43:58,400 --> 01:44:00,200 Speaker 1: interaction I've had with them is sharing a video of 1851 01:44:00,200 --> 01:44:03,679 Speaker 1: a dog back in November see producer Mark dog Videos. 1852 01:44:03,680 --> 01:44:06,519 Speaker 1: It's the one thing that still brings humanity together always 1853 01:44:07,200 --> 01:44:11,000 Speaker 1: yeah still, Facebook claims I've commented and liked more posts 1854 01:44:11,080 --> 01:44:13,559 Speaker 1: from him than other people. Just this morning, I've seen 1855 01:44:13,560 --> 01:44:16,120 Speaker 1: a pro union page and a group pushing fifteen dollars 1856 01:44:16,160 --> 01:44:19,320 Speaker 1: minimum wage. Random right wing interest groups don't show up 1857 01:44:19,320 --> 01:44:21,000 Speaker 1: in my feet at all. Looks like they're trying to 1858 01:44:21,040 --> 01:44:23,439 Speaker 1: hit us with full media staturation. Have you noticed this 1859 01:44:23,479 --> 01:44:26,759 Speaker 1: shields high, Brian, Yes, I have noticed this. You'll also 1860 01:44:26,840 --> 01:44:30,320 Speaker 1: notice there are a whole lot of out of nowhere 1861 01:44:30,560 --> 01:44:33,640 Speaker 1: left wing podcast that are popping up pretty high in 1862 01:44:33,720 --> 01:44:39,519 Speaker 1: the iTunes listing of news shows. The no one, you know, 1863 01:44:39,560 --> 01:44:42,400 Speaker 1: the iTunes algorithm is not something that's public and we're 1864 01:44:42,400 --> 01:44:44,840 Speaker 1: not really allowed to know. But I do find that 1865 01:44:45,000 --> 01:44:47,840 Speaker 1: curious at least. Look, their algorithm is whatever they want 1866 01:44:47,840 --> 01:44:50,880 Speaker 1: it to be, right, the iTunes algorithm, you know, we 1867 01:44:50,920 --> 01:44:53,479 Speaker 1: assume it's is it the most shows, total downloaded, the 1868 01:44:53,479 --> 01:44:56,320 Speaker 1: longest listen with the most you know, There's a lot 1869 01:44:56,320 --> 01:44:58,160 Speaker 1: of things that could go into this. It's not just 1870 01:44:58,200 --> 01:45:00,360 Speaker 1: how many people are subscribe, it's how many people open, 1871 01:45:00,400 --> 01:45:03,760 Speaker 1: how long do they listen? Are they listening, you know, 1872 01:45:03,800 --> 01:45:05,840 Speaker 1: to multiple multiple times to the same show, and has 1873 01:45:05,880 --> 01:45:08,080 Speaker 1: that counted? So there's a lot of ways to the 1874 01:45:08,120 --> 01:45:10,640 Speaker 1: system could be skewed to begin with. But yeah, no, 1875 01:45:10,720 --> 01:45:14,160 Speaker 1: you're gonna get a lot of left wing media saturation 1876 01:45:14,280 --> 01:45:16,519 Speaker 1: now from all over the place. That's for sure. That's 1877 01:45:16,520 --> 01:45:19,480 Speaker 1: for real. So what you're picking up on is not imaginary. 1878 01:45:19,560 --> 01:45:21,640 Speaker 1: My friend, Brian, I wish I could tell you that 1879 01:45:21,680 --> 01:45:24,519 Speaker 1: we could change it, but fok. Facebook is calling the 1880 01:45:24,520 --> 01:45:29,360 Speaker 1: shots on Facebook and that means libs And Heybrocker producer, Mark, 1881 01:45:30,000 --> 01:45:32,120 Speaker 1: who would you say would be the GOP's next in 1882 01:45:32,120 --> 01:45:34,519 Speaker 1: line to carry the Republican Party to twenty twenty four election? 1883 01:45:34,600 --> 01:45:36,760 Speaker 1: Love your show, Shield Say, and we love you. Thank 1884 01:45:36,760 --> 01:45:39,840 Speaker 1: you so much for writing in. And you ask me 1885 01:45:39,880 --> 01:45:42,280 Speaker 1: who should be the candidate for the Republican president right 1886 01:45:42,280 --> 01:45:44,439 Speaker 1: now for twenty twenty four. If you're asking me right now, 1887 01:45:45,280 --> 01:45:47,840 Speaker 1: Ron de Santisa, Florida, that's that's who I think it 1888 01:45:47,840 --> 01:45:50,720 Speaker 1: should be right now based on everything we're seeing. That 1889 01:45:50,840 --> 01:45:52,960 Speaker 1: obviously could change, but that's my answer for you. And 1890 01:45:53,120 --> 01:45:55,760 Speaker 1: thanks so much for writing in. Team. Great to be 1891 01:45:55,840 --> 01:45:58,240 Speaker 1: with you. Tomorrow will be a better day, Shield Ti
