1
00:00:11,080 --> 00:00:16,840
Speaker 1: You are entering the freedom hunt. The left has gone mad.

2
00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:21,400
Speaker 1: They are now supporting an abortion bill in Virginia that

3
00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:26,000
Speaker 1: is nothing short of infanticide. We have to confront this

4
00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:29,160
Speaker 1: evil head on. We'll talk about that and then move

5
00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:33,400
Speaker 1: into a discussion of socialism and single payer healthcare. The

6
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:37,440
Speaker 1: Democrats are embracing both ideas. We have to fight back

7
00:00:37,479 --> 00:00:41,720
Speaker 1: and win. That's all coming up. This is the Buck

8
00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:45,080
Speaker 1: Sexton Show, where the mission or mission is to decode

9
00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:51,320
Speaker 1: what really matters with actionable intelligence, Make no mistake America

10
00:00:52,360 --> 00:01:03,520
Speaker 1: American again. The Buck Sexton Show begins. Analysts, now, welcome

11
00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:06,560
Speaker 1: to the Buck sex And Show everybody. A lot of

12
00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:08,720
Speaker 1: a lot of things. That covered a lot of policy

13
00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:12,360
Speaker 1: to discuss. We will get into the latest on the

14
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:15,720
Speaker 1: immigration debate. It was very gratified to see that the

15
00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:19,559
Speaker 1: President shared my editorial from the Hill earlier this week

16
00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:23,160
Speaker 1: on immigration and talking about the the scams and the

17
00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:28,480
Speaker 1: dishonesty around the asylum process, the need for a border wall,

18
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:32,000
Speaker 1: the crisis at the border. So word word is getting

19
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:33,720
Speaker 1: out and if you haven't read that piece, I think

20
00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:36,440
Speaker 1: it's worth it's worth your time. And I was very

21
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:40,120
Speaker 1: I was very pleased that the President was very gratifying.

22
00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:42,520
Speaker 1: The President of the White House official Twitter accounts both

23
00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:49,160
Speaker 1: shared it. We'll also discuss socialism and this this huge,

24
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:54,640
Speaker 1: huge fight that's coming over Medicare for all, which is

25
00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:58,240
Speaker 1: going to be the central promise other than anti Trump

26
00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:00,760
Speaker 1: is m and getting rid of Trump. Promise of the

27
00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 1: Democrats in twenty twenty is going to be Medicare for all.

28
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,160
Speaker 1: It was originally healthcare coverage for everybody. Now it's just

29
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:09,280
Speaker 1: going to be healthcare for everybody that somebody else will

30
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:14,320
Speaker 1: pay for. This is disastrous on a number of levels,

31
00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 1: but it is a very real threat. I do think

32
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:21,799
Speaker 1: a lot of the conservatives out there think that we

33
00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:25,440
Speaker 1: can just say, haha, socialism, socialism stinks, nobody wants it,

34
00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:28,400
Speaker 1: and that will be sufficient. It will not be sufficient.

35
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:32,639
Speaker 1: The polls are showing, the conversations are shifting. People are

36
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 1: fed up with what is a lot of government intrusion

37
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:39,160
Speaker 1: and distortion in the healthcare market to begin with, and

38
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:45,359
Speaker 1: then there's this impulse to just say, fine, let's just

39
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:47,720
Speaker 1: have the government charge of all of it. And this

40
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:51,520
Speaker 1: all along was why Obamacare was meant to put us

41
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:54,239
Speaker 1: in this position. All along, this was the goal. We

42
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:56,680
Speaker 1: knew it. We weren't able to stop them. We're going

43
00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:59,280
Speaker 1: to have to win on the battlefield of ideas. Going

44
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:01,320
Speaker 1: ahead on this or else. You're just gonna wait, you know,

45
00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:03,560
Speaker 1: eighteen months for the for the hip replacement you need.

46
00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:06,679
Speaker 1: You're gonna wait eight weeks to see a specialist for

47
00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:09,519
Speaker 1: a you know, whatever, whatever infection or problem you have.

48
00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:12,080
Speaker 1: And it's not going to be a very good doctor.

49
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:15,720
Speaker 1: You can see whoever they, whoever they the government tells

50
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:19,200
Speaker 1: you to see. That's going to be the reality. But

51
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:23,040
Speaker 1: I wanted to start with something else today. This is

52
00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:26,360
Speaker 1: this is one of those topics where I feel an

53
00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:28,799
Speaker 1: obligation to talk about it, even though I know that

54
00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:32,200
Speaker 1: it's not necessarily a subject matter that after a long

55
00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:33,960
Speaker 1: day at the office, a lot of people are gonna

56
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,400
Speaker 1: want to dive into and hear about it. And I

57
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:40,240
Speaker 1: understand that, and look, you know, I do the best

58
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:42,000
Speaker 1: that I can every single day to make sure that

59
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:45,440
Speaker 1: I make maximum usage of our time together. I spend

60
00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 1: my whole day preparing for these hours that I get

61
00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:51,400
Speaker 1: with all of you. And so some days the topics

62
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:55,480
Speaker 1: are going to be hard, hard to talk about it,

63
00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:57,400
Speaker 1: I'm sure hard to listen to. And today is one

64
00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:01,720
Speaker 1: of those days we are confronting evil in this country. Now,

65
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:07,600
Speaker 1: as a matter of partisan policy, the Democratic Party has

66
00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:15,160
Speaker 1: openly embraced evil. I'm not saying, you know, they're they're

67
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:18,160
Speaker 1: making bad decisions on some matter of economic policy. I'm

68
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:22,560
Speaker 1: not I'm saying that they have now crossed over into open,

69
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:30,600
Speaker 1: clear immorality. Democrats have legalized infanticide. That is not an overstatement.

70
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:35,800
Speaker 1: That is a straightforward understanding, a straightforward application of the

71
00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:39,240
Speaker 1: laws that they are supporting, first in the state of

72
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:41,720
Speaker 1: in the state of New York, and then today we

73
00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:48,840
Speaker 1: find out more in the state of Virginia. This cannot

74
00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:53,920
Speaker 1: be allowed to stand. This cannot continue. This is a

75
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:57,640
Speaker 1: stain on this country. It is the single greatest moral

76
00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:04,760
Speaker 1: stain on this country. Today you have Governor Ralph Northam

77
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:08,080
Speaker 1: of Virginia who was on a radio show today and

78
00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:13,080
Speaker 1: it was one of the more chilling interviews of any

79
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:16,480
Speaker 1: kind I have ever heard. I mean, I'm somebody who,

80
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:22,360
Speaker 1: in his professional capacity as a counter terrorism analyst, used

81
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:26,960
Speaker 1: to have to listen, to watch and see some pretty

82
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:30,800
Speaker 1: terrible things. When you're dealing in the world of al

83
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:35,240
Speaker 1: Qaida and al Qaida and Iraq and different terrorist groups,

84
00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:39,200
Speaker 1: you see and hear horrible things that happened that are

85
00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:41,680
Speaker 1: happening to people, that have happened to people, and you

86
00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:45,360
Speaker 1: see the aftermath of different strikes, of ied strikes, and

87
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:53,200
Speaker 1: you know, it's it's stuff that stays with you. This conversation, casual, calm,

88
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:57,000
Speaker 1: conversation that the Governor of Virginia, Ralph Northam, had on

89
00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:02,640
Speaker 1: this radio show today is it's the kind of discussion

90
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:05,760
Speaker 1: that I think many of you will remember for quite

91
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:09,720
Speaker 1: a while afterwards, not because of the energy or the

92
00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:14,520
Speaker 1: there was nothing profound. It's actually the finality of evil.

93
00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:21,920
Speaker 1: For your ears, play clip nine. There was a very

94
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:25,640
Speaker 1: contentious committee hearing yesterday when Fairfax County Delicate Cathy Tran

95
00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:29,760
Speaker 1: made her case for lifting restrictions on third trimester abortions

96
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,040
Speaker 1: as well as other restrictions now in place. And she

97
00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 1: was pressed by a Republican delegate about whether her bill

98
00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:38,400
Speaker 1: would permit an abortion even as a woman is essentially

99
00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:42,520
Speaker 1: dilating ready to give birth, and she answered that it

100
00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:46,520
Speaker 1: would permit an abortion at that stage of labor. Do

101
00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:50,400
Speaker 1: you support her measure and explain her answer. But when

102
00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:54,680
Speaker 1: we talk about third trimester abortions, these are done with

103
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:58,880
Speaker 1: the consent of obviously the mother with the consent of

104
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:02,480
Speaker 1: the physicians, more than one physician, by the way, and

105
00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:05,800
Speaker 1: it's done in cases where there may be severe deformities,

106
00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:09,400
Speaker 1: there may be a fetus that's non viable. So in

107
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:12,480
Speaker 1: this particular example, if a mother is in labor, I

108
00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:16,360
Speaker 1: can tell you exactly what would happen. The infant would

109
00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:20,600
Speaker 1: be delivered, the infant would be kept comfortable, the infant

110
00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:23,800
Speaker 1: would be resuscitated if that's what the mother and the

111
00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:27,320
Speaker 1: family desired, and then a discussion would ensue between the

112
00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:31,200
Speaker 1: physicians and the mothers. We want the government not to

113
00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:33,960
Speaker 1: be involved in these types of decisions. We want the

114
00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:38,080
Speaker 1: decision to be made by the mothers and their providers.

115
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:42,120
Speaker 1: And this is why Julie that legislators, most of whom

116
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:44,480
Speaker 1: are men, by the way, shouldn't be telling a woman

117
00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:46,960
Speaker 1: what she should and shouldn't be doing with her body.

118
00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:57,880
Speaker 1: That's the most grotesquely immoral and disgusting thing a politician

119
00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:02,640
Speaker 1: has said in my lifetime. Although obviously a Cuomo support

120
00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:06,440
Speaker 1: for a similar bill in New York is right up there.

121
00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:10,240
Speaker 1: We can just walk through what was said. This is

122
00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:15,560
Speaker 1: the governor of Virginia, the chief elected official of the

123
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:20,160
Speaker 1: state of Virginia, and he says that an infant under

124
00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:23,200
Speaker 1: the law that Democrats are putting forward here in this

125
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:27,800
Speaker 1: abortion bill, under the law, an infant would be delivered.

126
00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:32,360
Speaker 1: So then now we're talking about baby outside the womb.

127
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:36,640
Speaker 1: That is what delivered means a baby delivered outside the

128
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:43,280
Speaker 1: womb would be made comfortable, which means that obviously there's

129
00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:46,920
Speaker 1: an understanding that this is a person who feels pain,

130
00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:53,000
Speaker 1: who has a fully functioning brain, central nervous system, heart, lung, eyes,

131
00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:58,600
Speaker 1: little fingers, little feet, a baby. And then once they

132
00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:03,520
Speaker 1: had made the delivered infant comfortable, they would have a

133
00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:07,600
Speaker 1: they would have the right to resuscitate or not resuscitate,

134
00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:09,720
Speaker 1: and figure out what they want to do with the baby.

135
00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:12,160
Speaker 1: He is talking about killing a baby outside the womb

136
00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 1: and saying it is legal. There's no wiggle room on this.

137
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 1: There's no good faith two sides. This is infanticide, this

138
00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:32,319
Speaker 1: is killing babies. And there's a feeling here of tremendous regression.

139
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:39,440
Speaker 1: I've mentioned you before that my college advisor, thesis advisor,

140
00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:43,839
Speaker 1: Professor Hadley Archy's who was the only only outspoken conservative

141
00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:48,000
Speaker 1: on my whole college campus and was somebody that played

142
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:51,319
Speaker 1: a very important role in the development of my my

143
00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:57,040
Speaker 1: own politics and political philosophy. He was part of the

144
00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:59,800
Speaker 1: early drafting of what's known as the Born Alive in

145
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:05,319
Speaker 1: Protection Act. I've told people what that bill says. It's

146
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:07,120
Speaker 1: a federal it's a federal laws. By the way, I

147
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,520
Speaker 1: believe this, this must be in violation of it. I'm

148
00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:13,000
Speaker 1: assuming this will be This will be challenged in the courts.

149
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:15,040
Speaker 1: I certainly hope it is. It will be challenged in

150
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:16,719
Speaker 1: this life or the next. I can assure you that.

151
00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:22,720
Speaker 1: But Hadley or Professor Arki's he lets me call him Hadley.

152
00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:27,679
Speaker 1: Now he had to write or put forward that, if

153
00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:31,640
Speaker 1: nothing else, the abortion extremist should have to consent to

154
00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:35,440
Speaker 1: keeping a baby outside the womb that is alive, alive

155
00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:40,640
Speaker 1: because under the under the understanding post Roe v. Wade

156
00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:45,599
Speaker 1: that persistent in the courts, the right to an abortion

157
00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:48,200
Speaker 1: was the right to a dead baby, even if during

158
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:50,840
Speaker 1: the abortion procedure. And this has happened. There are people

159
00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:54,559
Speaker 1: who have survived botched abortions. The baby came out and

160
00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:59,559
Speaker 1: was still alive. They had to pass a bill. By

161
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:02,439
Speaker 1: the way, you want to know who did not vote

162
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:06,480
Speaker 1: in favor of that bill in the state Assembly got

163
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:09,760
Speaker 1: to pass on this one, of course, because he wanted

164
00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:13,280
Speaker 1: that that planned parenthood money. When he was running Barack

165
00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:16,760
Speaker 1: Obama as a state senator. One of very few I

166
00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:19,079
Speaker 1: would know, but he knew. You want to be in

167
00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:21,079
Speaker 1: with the Democrats, you want to be part of the

168
00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:23,800
Speaker 1: left and really have them fully behind you, you have

169
00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:29,240
Speaker 1: to be an abortion extremist. All nine months. This is

170
00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:32,280
Speaker 1: all nine months of the pregnancy, up to and beyond

171
00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:38,280
Speaker 1: the moment of birth. How could anybody say this? How

172
00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:42,760
Speaker 1: could anybody make this argument? The most vulnerable people in

173
00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:46,840
Speaker 1: our society, The most precious thing we have in our

174
00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:49,559
Speaker 1: society is life. The most vulnerable people in our society

175
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:54,760
Speaker 1: are infants. And Democrats are spending their time and resources

176
00:11:54,840 --> 00:12:00,120
Speaker 1: and power to pass laws that allow people and I

177
00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:02,920
Speaker 1: know that people that there will be this. Oh, it's

178
00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:08,760
Speaker 1: it's very rare. Well, it's very rare. It is not

179
00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:10,880
Speaker 1: a justification for any other kind of murder. So I

180
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:13,280
Speaker 1: need to know why they think it's very rare would

181
00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:16,599
Speaker 1: be a justification for this kind of murder. This is

182
00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:19,640
Speaker 1: not there's no gray area here. This is black and white.

183
00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:22,800
Speaker 1: Democrats believe that a woman has the right to kill

184
00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:28,040
Speaker 1: her own baby, that is what this says. I'm not exaggerating,

185
00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:31,480
Speaker 1: I am not taking it out of context. They have

186
00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:36,280
Speaker 1: fallen into an abyss of darkness, all of the echo

187
00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:41,439
Speaker 1: chambers of their cowardly, disgraceful media, all these self important,

188
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:46,600
Speaker 1: self involved millionaires and billionaires running these propaganda organs, all

189
00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:51,599
Speaker 1: these women's rights activist groups, and this whole the propaganda

190
00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:57,439
Speaker 1: of postmodern femine postmodernist feminism, and the left wing manipulation

191
00:12:57,559 --> 00:12:59,880
Speaker 1: of words and the use of emotion to try to

192
00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:05,160
Speaker 1: tell people, force people, convince them to abandon the most

193
00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:15,640
Speaker 1: fundamental moral concepts in society. And it's working. It's working.

194
00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:18,240
Speaker 1: There are a lot of days when I come in

195
00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:20,600
Speaker 1: here and I get to talk to you about things

196
00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:25,480
Speaker 1: that are just interesting, things that are are entertaining, enjoyable,

197
00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:28,520
Speaker 1: are you know, important in the culture. But we can

198
00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:30,840
Speaker 1: we will all be fine whether it goes one way

199
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:32,720
Speaker 1: or the other. You know, we can take a loss

200
00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:35,040
Speaker 1: on some issues and sleep well at night and know

201
00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:38,160
Speaker 1: that it's all going to be okay. This is not

202
00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:43,199
Speaker 1: one of them. This is a declaration of war on

203
00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:50,319
Speaker 1: life from the left. It is the most egregious, disgusting

204
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:57,360
Speaker 1: legislative act in my lifetime. There will be a time,

205
00:13:57,559 --> 00:14:01,520
Speaker 1: many years hence, I think, when we will look back

206
00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:07,400
Speaker 1: on this and there will be tremendous efforts to rehabilitate

207
00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:09,360
Speaker 1: what the left was really all about when it came

208
00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:13,160
Speaker 1: to life and to babies, and they will try to

209
00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:16,880
Speaker 1: rewrite this. They will have to rewrite this, because this

210
00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:20,840
Speaker 1: is so immoral and so grotesque that it will haunt

211
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:24,320
Speaker 1: those who supported it, and certainly those who engaged in it,

212
00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:29,760
Speaker 1: for many, many years to come. I want to play

213
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:31,560
Speaker 1: for you when we come back, and then we will

214
00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:33,720
Speaker 1: move off the topic, because I honestly can't handle to

215
00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:35,600
Speaker 1: talk about it much more, and I don't know, I

216
00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:37,120
Speaker 1: don't want to. I know you've all had a tough

217
00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:38,720
Speaker 1: day and you have a lot of things on your mind.

218
00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:40,880
Speaker 1: You've got other thing. We got policies talk about that

219
00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:42,760
Speaker 1: are beyond this. I think this is the most important

220
00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:46,920
Speaker 1: thing in the country right now. You should hear what

221
00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:50,520
Speaker 1: this representative in the Virginia Assembly said. I want you

222
00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:52,160
Speaker 1: to hear what she had to say about this, because

223
00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:54,600
Speaker 1: I want you to know that this is not some

224
00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:59,040
Speaker 1: oh right wing talk radio propaganda. Whatever I am explain,

225
00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:01,840
Speaker 1: I am explaining to you what this law says and does,

226
00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:04,120
Speaker 1: and what the people who are supporting it want to

227
00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:10,680
Speaker 1: make legal, not extending beyond what they themselves would say.

228
00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:15,040
Speaker 1: We'll come back, we'll do that, and then we'll talk socialism, healthcare.

229
00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:18,760
Speaker 1: We'll get into our usual rhythm, but we have to

230
00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:23,280
Speaker 1: get through this one together. We'll be right back. If

231

Speaker 1: And I want to pass this year a constitutional amendment

251
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:43,000
Speaker 1: that rights into the Constitution a provision protecting a woman's

252
00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:48,360
Speaker 1: right to control her wrong reproductive health. Look at the

253
00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:54,480
Speaker 1: tortured language. A woman's right to control reproductive health, just say,

254
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:56,200
Speaker 1: a right to an abortion for all nine months of

255
00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:58,040
Speaker 1: a pregnancy. That's what you're doing there up in New

256
00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:01,080
Speaker 1: York and now in Virginia too. This is what this

257
00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:02,880
Speaker 1: is what the conversation was on the floor of the

258
00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:10,960
Speaker 1: Virginia Virginia Legislature. Play eight. How late in the third

259
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:15,040
Speaker 1: trimester could a physician perform an abortion if he indicated

260
00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:18,639
Speaker 1: it would impair the mental health of the woman or

261
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:22,200
Speaker 1: physical health? Okay, okay, I'm talking about the mental health.

262
00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:25,679
Speaker 1: So I mean through the third trimester. The third trimester

263
00:17:25,760 --> 00:17:27,960
Speaker 1: goes all the way up to forty weeks okay, but

264
00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:30,160
Speaker 1: to the end of the third trimester. Yep. I don't

265
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:34,840
Speaker 1: think we have a limit in the bill. So where

266
00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:37,000
Speaker 1: it's obvious that a woman is about to give birth,

267
00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:39,800
Speaker 1: she has physical signs of that she is about to

268
00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:42,320
Speaker 1: give a birth, would that still be a point at

269
00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:44,800
Speaker 1: which she could request an abortion if she was so

270
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:52,800
Speaker 1: certified she's dilating, mister chairman, that would be a you know,

271
00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:57,200
Speaker 1: a decision that the doctor, the physician, and the woman

272
00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:00,200
Speaker 1: understand that. I'm asking if your bill allows that, my

273
00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:05,240
Speaker 1: bill would allow that. Yes? Is there any way I

274
00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:08,040
Speaker 1: have misrepresented what is going on here? I mean, I

275
00:18:08,119 --> 00:18:12,080
Speaker 1: ask you that in all honesty. Here's the woman putting

276
00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:15,639
Speaker 1: forth the bill for the Virginia legislature. She has asked,

277
00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:19,760
Speaker 1: can you kill the baby while it is being born?

278
00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:25,280
Speaker 1: Under your bill? She says, my bill would allow that

279
00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:31,800
Speaker 1: woman's water breaks, she's giving birth. I decide, or you know,

280
00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:34,240
Speaker 1: she decides she doesn't want to do it anymore. She

281
00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:37,760
Speaker 1: can say, doctor, terminate this pregnancy. Oh, but the baby

282
00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:39,520
Speaker 1: is going to be out. It's I can already see

283
00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:42,840
Speaker 1: its head. No, doctor terminate the pregnancy. Okay, Well, if

284
00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:45,440
Speaker 1: you say it's going to hurt your mental health. You

285
00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:48,520
Speaker 1: can tell me that this will be rare. I don't care.

286
00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:55,760
Speaker 1: It is murder, It is legal grounds for infanticide. It

287
00:18:56,000 --> 00:19:00,440
Speaker 1: is a blight on this country that any state, any legislature,

288
00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:04,040
Speaker 1: quite honestly, any human being would be okay with this.

289
00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:07,080
Speaker 1: Would the fact that they're advocating for it, that they're cheering,

290
00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:10,280
Speaker 1: that they're proud, my friends. I do not say this lightly.

291
00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:12,639
Speaker 1: There are some issues where it is a political difference

292
00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:15,119
Speaker 1: between left and right, and there are good faiths or

293
00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:18,240
Speaker 1: arguments on both sides. This is not one of those issues.

294
00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:23,120
Speaker 1: The left, the Democrats have sided with Satan. They are wrong.

295
00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:28,080
Speaker 1: This is evil. This is evil. We must oppose this,

296
00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:31,320
Speaker 1: and we must beat them at the ballot box to

297
00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:34,439
Speaker 1: stop them from being able to implement what is an

298
00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:41,240
Speaker 1: obviously barbaric policy. Here's an interesting thing that's happening, the

299
00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:44,880
Speaker 1: whole idea of how does she identify? Does she identify

300
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:47,360
Speaker 1: as an African American? Did you see the thing going

301
00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:50,280
Speaker 1: on on social media? She identify as a person of color?

302
00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:52,200
Speaker 1: Because when I asked by Jake if she you know,

303
00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:54,120
Speaker 1: as a black woman, she goes as a person of color.

304
00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:56,640
Speaker 1: Remember that whole thing with Obama is he black enough.

305
00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:59,960
Speaker 1: That is different than identifying. But it's just an interest

306
00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:02,440
Speaker 1: in conversation to me that I hear people talking about.

307
00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:08,520
Speaker 1: This is what they spend time on at CNN. This

308
00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:12,679
Speaker 1: is where their focus is. You know, they're they're wanting

309
00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:15,920
Speaker 1: to talk about how Kamala Harris. I mean, she's obviously

310
00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:20,000
Speaker 1: a woman of color. Does she identify as black? I mean,

311
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:22,879
Speaker 1: I think with most people she registers as black. But

312
00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:25,119
Speaker 1: this is a this is a conversation of sorts. I

313
00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:28,800
Speaker 1: don't think it's a particularly important one. But how does

314
00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:33,359
Speaker 1: one quantify or qualify blackness in this country? If someone

315
00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:37,240
Speaker 1: is of of you know, dual ethnicity, if you will

316
00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:41,200
Speaker 1: mother and father are from different ethnic backgrounds, do you pick?

317
00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:44,439
Speaker 1: Do you you know that there is an identification, there

318
00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:49,720
Speaker 1: is a self identity process in this whole thing. It's

319
00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:51,720
Speaker 1: it's dizzying when you try to put all this stuff

320
00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:54,199
Speaker 1: together and try to understand where they're going with all

321
00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:56,720
Speaker 1: of it. But that's you know, that's and I know

322
00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:58,520
Speaker 1: you say, oh about that's just one clip, but no,

323
00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:01,520
Speaker 1: I mean today there was a focus on Howard Schultz

324
00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:06,920
Speaker 1: not knowing the price of cheerios. Oh, he's an out

325
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:10,040
Speaker 1: of touch billionaire. Doesn't know the price of cheerios. I'm

326
00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:12,920
Speaker 1: about a billion dollars short of being a billionaire, and

327
00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:14,680
Speaker 1: I don't know the price of cheerios off the top

328
00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:17,359
Speaker 1: of my head because I don't need them. Yeah, I mean,

329
00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:19,280
Speaker 1: I guess it's like three or four bucks maybe, but

330
00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:21,320
Speaker 1: maybe it's six. And it depends on where you shop.

331
00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:22,960
Speaker 1: I don't know, John, what do you know what the

332
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:25,440
Speaker 1: price of cheerios? This was a big story today for

333
00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:30,399
Speaker 1: the media. Four or five bucks? Okay exactly? John depends

334
00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:32,800
Speaker 1: on this. I see John knows. John knows his cheerios.

335
00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:35,359
Speaker 1: Honey nut is obviously the way to go if you're

336
00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:39,400
Speaker 1: gonna get cheerios. But I think plane cheerios are gluten free,

337
00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:41,920
Speaker 1: but I'd have to check. But that's the kind of

338
00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:45,440
Speaker 1: just nonsense that they focus on. When and I played

339
00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:47,000
Speaker 1: for you what And I'm not going to go back

340
00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:48,480
Speaker 1: and talk more about what we started the show it

341
00:21:48,560 --> 00:21:50,520
Speaker 1: because it honestly, it upsets me. It upsets me to

342
00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:52,800
Speaker 1: talk about it, upsets me to think about it. But

343
00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:56,920
Speaker 1: we can't move away from a hard topics just because

344
00:21:57,000 --> 00:22:01,680
Speaker 1: there's there's other things on the horizon. Amla Harris not

345
00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:05,760
Speaker 1: a strong rollout for I would say a certainly a

346
00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:09,320
Speaker 1: top three Democrat nominee contender not not going so well

347
00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:13,600
Speaker 1: so far. And here's one that we didn't get to yesterday.

348
00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:15,680
Speaker 1: And here's part of the conversation that I think is

349
00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:20,320
Speaker 1: going to be harder for Democrats to make seem okay

350
00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:23,560
Speaker 1: to the general elector. I mean, the Democrats biggest problem

351
00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:27,159
Speaker 1: and runn against Republicans is that their only job is

352
00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:29,920
Speaker 1: to not be lunatics, and they can't do that job.

353
00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:32,200
Speaker 1: If the Democrats came forward and they said, you know,

354
00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:35,560
Speaker 1: we're gonna fix healthcare, We're gonna respect people's individual rights,

355
00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:37,000
Speaker 1: we're not going to try to take your guns away.

356
00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:39,520
Speaker 1: We're not gonna push climate change lunacy on you. We

357
00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:43,639
Speaker 1: want to fix some aspects of Obamacare. We will. We

358
00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:46,240
Speaker 1: want DACA an amnesty, which I'm obviously very opposed to,

359
00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:48,399
Speaker 1: but you know, we're willing to do some things at

360
00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:51,719
Speaker 1: the border to tamp down on this false amnesty claims

361
00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:54,440
Speaker 1: and also on the illegal crossings with the fence. You know,

362
00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:57,959
Speaker 1: if they just triangulated a little bit, a little bit,

363
00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:02,720
Speaker 1: I would be I would know that they were probably

364
00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:04,800
Speaker 1: doing a head faith that they were lying. I mean,

365
00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:07,240
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that the Democrats would cease to be Democrats.

366
00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:11,640
Speaker 1: But instead of doing that, instead of presenting themselves as

367
00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:16,080
Speaker 1: better at governance and more reasonable than the Republicans, what

368
00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:26,680
Speaker 1: do they do the crazy talk play for what we

369
00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:31,280
Speaker 1: would call today a domestic terrorist group? Why why why

370
00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:34,760
Speaker 1: would we call them domestic terrorist group? Because they tried

371
00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:38,200
Speaker 1: to use fear and force to change political environment? And

372
00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:40,520
Speaker 1: what was the motivation for the use of fear and

373
00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:44,639
Speaker 1: force based on race and ethnicity? Right? Are you aware

374
00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:50,560
Speaker 1: of the perception of many about how the power and

375
00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:54,520
Speaker 1: the discretion at ICE as being used to enforce the laws?

376
00:23:55,600 --> 00:24:01,760
Speaker 1: And do you see any parallels parallels huh to a

377
00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:08,120
Speaker 1: domestic terrorist group ICE, Immigrations and Customs Enforcement. I gotta

378
00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:10,440
Speaker 1: tell you, that's why during the shutdown it made me

379
00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:13,800
Speaker 1: so frustrated all these Democrats who were saying, oh, the

380
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:17,960
Speaker 1: poor border patrol people, they're working without pay. Immigrations and

381
00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:21,080
Speaker 1: Customs enforcement, they're working without pay. I'm sitting here, I'm like,

382
00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:25,119
Speaker 1: all on a second, yeah, they should get paid, and

383
00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:27,040
Speaker 1: I feel badly for those families, but they got their

384
00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:29,680
Speaker 1: back pay. Is now they're secure, They'll be all right.

385
00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:33,800
Speaker 1: But Democrats are the ones that say that they're acting

386
00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:36,800
Speaker 1: like Nazis, that Border Patrol is like a bunch of Nazis,

387
00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:40,960
Speaker 1: that ICE is setting up concentration camps. They're the ones

388
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:45,840
Speaker 1: that undermine the core mission of those agencies. At the

389
00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:50,160
Speaker 1: first sign of any political advantage from it, they throw

390
00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:54,120
Speaker 1: ICE and Border Patrol under the bus so fast their

391
00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:58,040
Speaker 1: heads don't even have time to spend. And then they

392
00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:00,480
Speaker 1: want to be Oh, we're so worried about these, about

393
00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:05,000
Speaker 1: our brave federal employees. We gotta go to a quick break.

394
00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:07,720
Speaker 1: I'll be back. Oh in one minute. I'm sorry. I

395
00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:10,120
Speaker 1: thought we had up. Sorry about that team. I was like, John,

396
00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:12,520
Speaker 1: what's going on here? Yeah, I'm not done yet. I

397
00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:16,119
Speaker 1: have not yet begun to radio. So this is what

398
00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:17,600
Speaker 1: this is what you've got going on. I mean, you

399
00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:22,919
Speaker 1: have Kamala Harris, who is somebody she's just like Hillary,

400
00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:24,520
Speaker 1: and that she's gonna say whatever she has to say

401
00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:26,119
Speaker 1: in the moment to appeal to whoever she has to

402
00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:28,760
Speaker 1: appeal to you, and eventually I think it all will collapse.

403
00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:30,680
Speaker 1: The media is gonna try to prop her up and

404
00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:34,280
Speaker 1: hold her up and and convince people through all their

405
00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:39,920
Speaker 1: little propaganda magic tricks that she's a centrist, a technocrat,

406
00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:43,280
Speaker 1: and you know Sterling resume great personal story. The reality

407
00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:51,240
Speaker 1: is she's a completely opportunistic politician who doesn't seem to

408
00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:55,120
Speaker 1: have much of an ethical core in her policies. I'm

409
00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:59,280
Speaker 1: not talking about personal stuff, and it's just not not

410
00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:01,239
Speaker 1: a real man up for the Trumpster. That's the good

411
00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:03,760
Speaker 1: news for us. But we got more on socialism and healthcare,

412
00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:06,280
Speaker 1: Big healthcare, Deep Dot coming up next hours. Stay with me.

413
00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:10,359
Speaker 1: I think you could never affoid that you're talking about

414
00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:14,240
Speaker 1: trillions of dollars. I think you can have Medicare for

415
00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:18,040
Speaker 1: all for people that are uncovered, but because that's a

416
00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:20,600
Speaker 1: smaller group and a lot of them are taking care

417
00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:26,520
Speaker 1: of Medicaid already Medicare, but to replace the entire private

418
00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:33,000
Speaker 1: system where companies provide healthcare for their employees would bankrupt

419
00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:36,840
Speaker 1: us for a very long time. That's not correct. That's

420
00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:39,840
Speaker 1: not American. What's next? What industry are we going to

421
00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:44,280
Speaker 1: abolish next? That alone would wipe out millions of jobs

422
00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:47,640
Speaker 1: of Americans. And that is a kind of extreme policy.

423
00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:50,920
Speaker 1: That is not a policy that I agree with. And

424
00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:53,960
Speaker 1: if you take immigration, you take healthcare. What we have

425
00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:58,159
Speaker 1: is extremes on both right, both sides not representing the

426
00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:02,639
Speaker 1: large majority of America who don't have a voice. The

427
00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:08,000
Speaker 1: billionaires on the left caused them a little bit of heartburn. There.

428
00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:12,560
Speaker 1: For the progressives, you have Bloomberg, who say what you

429
00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:15,280
Speaker 1: will about him, and he's a total you know, he's

430
00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:18,960
Speaker 1: a total nincome poop on guns and he's mister nanny,

431
00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:23,119
Speaker 1: stay with it, no drinking big sodas, and uh, you

432
00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:26,919
Speaker 1: know he obviously he's he's a big government guile. Though.

433
00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:28,960
Speaker 1: I will say the problem with Bloomberg, and I remember,

434
00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:31,560
Speaker 1: as much as I love Glembeck, I remember he looked

435
00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:32,920
Speaker 1: at me once like I was crazy because I was

436
00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:35,480
Speaker 1: a New York City resident for many years. I actually

437
00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:38,399
Speaker 1: worked for Bloomberg at the NYPD, and I said, you know,

438
00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:40,600
Speaker 1: you gotta be Bloomberg is what you really got to

439
00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:45,919
Speaker 1: worry about, because at Bloomberg you get efficient, efficient government services,

440
00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:49,680
Speaker 1: clean streets, the trains running on time. But he won't

441
00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:51,240
Speaker 1: let you have big sodas and wants to take your

442
00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:55,399
Speaker 1: guns away. You know, the the the Detroit model, the

443
00:27:56,000 --> 00:28:00,320
Speaker 1: Baltimore model of a Democrat lefty who just doesn't know

444
00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:02,399
Speaker 1: what the heck they're doing and tries to pile on

445
00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:06,680
Speaker 1: all the progressive you know, Nanni state social justice nonsense. Yeah,

446
00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:09,640
Speaker 1: anybody with you know, two brain cells to rub together

447
00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:12,440
Speaker 1: can come up with why that's a bad idea. The

448
00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:18,080
Speaker 1: real problem from our perspective is the Bloombergian effective provision

449
00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:24,200
Speaker 1: of government services and reasonably efficient government activity that is

450
00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:26,399
Speaker 1: Nannie State. Like that's when you get you know, that's

451
00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:27,760
Speaker 1: when you all of a sudden people saying, well, I

452
00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:29,919
Speaker 1: don't mind being Denmark. We're gonna talk more about Denmark

453
00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:31,240
Speaker 1: and healthcare and stuff, by the way, in just a

454
00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:34,439
Speaker 1: few moments here. But the problem that Bloomberg and Schultz,

455
00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:36,240
Speaker 1: who was a second guy there, they're both talking about

456
00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:39,200
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris saying we need medicare for all. The problem

457
00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:42,720
Speaker 1: that they pose for the Democrat Party right now is

458
00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:46,200
Speaker 1: that here are two guys who are both self made.

459
00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:48,800
Speaker 1: Oh man, they were going after Schultz. Schultz grew up

460
00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:51,920
Speaker 1: in a housing project and started out with one coffee

461
00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:55,640
Speaker 1: shop and ended up running a multibillion dollar empire. As

462
00:28:55,760 --> 00:28:59,760
Speaker 1: much as I don't like Starbucks, is you know, it's politics.

463
00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:04,400
Speaker 1: It is a great brand, and it's an incredible success story,

464
00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:07,000
Speaker 1: and you know, you gotta give props where they're due.

465
00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:10,240
Speaker 1: And Bloomberg obviously was a finance guy who came up

466
00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:12,280
Speaker 1: with the Bloomberg terminal idea, and he became a self

467
00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:14,040
Speaker 1: made billionaire. I think he's the richest person in New

468
00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:19,200
Speaker 1: York State. So these are two guys who understand, for

469
00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:25,560
Speaker 1: whatever their politics may be, they understand business. They understand numbers, finances,

470
00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:29,120
Speaker 1: and a balance sheet, no question, you cannot question either

471
00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:31,920
Speaker 1: of them when it comes to their ability on those matters.

472
00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:37,800
Speaker 1: And they are staring, staring across the table at the

473
00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:44,720
Speaker 1: Warren Ocasio Cortez, Bernie Sanders, Kamala Harris fantasy land, I

474
00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:51,040
Speaker 1: mean just absolute fantasyland. And they're saying, I'm sorry, this

475
00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:57,000
Speaker 1: isn't going to work. This would be catastrophic. The costs

476
00:29:57,040 --> 00:30:01,680
Speaker 1: would be catastrophic for the economy. You're talking about tens

477
00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:06,080
Speaker 1: of trillions of dollars of additional government spending that you're

478
00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:07,320
Speaker 1: not going to be able to come up with a

479
00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:09,720
Speaker 1: tax revenue to pay for this. We're already going a

480
00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:11,880
Speaker 1: trillion dollars a year in a debt. We're already spending

481
00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:14,400
Speaker 1: too much right now, or we're going to start going

482
00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:17,520
Speaker 1: three trillion in debt, four trillion in debt. This is

483
00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:22,160
Speaker 1: how on a yearly basis. This is how we would

484
00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:27,880
Speaker 1: find ourselves in a circumstance where our debt our debt

485
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:32,680
Speaker 1: service obligations becomes too high, crowds out other government spending.

486
00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:34,920
Speaker 1: Could become the biggest single item in the budget if

487
00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:38,880
Speaker 1: we don't watch ourselves, so we'll just be paying taxes

488
00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:42,800
Speaker 1: to pay the interest on the money that we've already spent.

489
00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:45,920
Speaker 1: You know, this is how you get in a scary territory, right.

490
00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:48,120
Speaker 1: This is like if you're an individual and all you

491
00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:50,680
Speaker 1: can pay your finance charges and your credit card bills.

492
00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:54,280
Speaker 1: That's when the credit cards companies got you, because now

493
00:30:54,440 --> 00:30:56,800
Speaker 1: you're just paying them money for the money you've already spent.

494
00:30:56,880 --> 00:30:58,920
Speaker 1: You're not even getting rid of that balance. You're on

495
00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:01,720
Speaker 1: a treadmill, and they're they're the ones with the whip saying,

496
00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:06,560
Speaker 1: you know, mush, mush, go faster. That's what our government

497
00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:09,520
Speaker 1: will will be doing if we allow the debt to

498
00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:11,560
Speaker 1: get so large to the debt service payments crowd out

499
00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:13,720
Speaker 1: the rest of it. And we're on track for that

500
00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:15,720
Speaker 1: to happen if we do this, I mean, if you

501
00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:18,920
Speaker 1: if you have single payer for healthcare, it's going to

502
00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:21,400
Speaker 1: just it'll blow up the blow up the budget, which

503
00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:25,040
Speaker 1: also means that we won't be able to borrow money.

504
00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:28,200
Speaker 1: Our treasury bonds will become a problem, and eventually we

505
00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:32,000
Speaker 1: risk not being the reserve currency for all global commerce,

506
00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:37,000
Speaker 1: and that becomes a huge problem. You know, our overspending

507
00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:41,760
Speaker 1: is a national security vulnerability. China is already aware of

508
00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:44,000
Speaker 1: this and looking to take advantage of it long term.

509
00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:46,640
Speaker 1: This is not just a function of oh, these people

510
00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:50,960
Speaker 1: have some nice ideas. This matters for future generations. It

511
00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:56,240
Speaker 1: matters for the health of this country financially and healthwise.

512
00:31:57,560 --> 00:32:01,360
Speaker 1: But these billionaires, they are are not welcome in this

513
00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:05,640
Speaker 1: conversation on the left right now, because people want the

514
00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:10,320
Speaker 1: Santa Claus healthcare talk. They want to be told that

515
00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:14,840
Speaker 1: they're gonna have brilliant, perfect, wonderful free healthcare that only

516
00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:17,080
Speaker 1: the super rich people are going to pay for. And

517
00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:20,800
Speaker 1: I'm here to say that what Bloomberg and Schultz are

518
00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:25,640
Speaker 1: saying is there's not enough money. They are making a

519
00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:28,520
Speaker 1: promise that they cannot deliver on. Keep in mind, the

520
00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:30,560
Speaker 1: wall is not a promise that Trump has made that

521
00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:33,120
Speaker 1: he can't deliver on. Democrats are refusing to let him

522
00:32:33,360 --> 00:32:37,720
Speaker 1: deliver on it. You could have sixty Democrat votes in

523
00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:41,200
Speaker 1: the Senate, solid Democrat majority you know in the House

524
00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:45,360
Speaker 1: called a fifty vote Democrat majority in the House, and

525
00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:49,959
Speaker 1: the Democrat presidency, they would not be able to deliver

526
00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:52,720
Speaker 1: on this plan. They might try, and we're going to

527
00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:54,520
Speaker 1: talk to McRoy here in a few minutes about what

528
00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:57,600
Speaker 1: that would look like, but they will not be able

529
00:32:57,640 --> 00:33:02,720
Speaker 1: to do this without catastrophe effects on the economy. Meanwhile,

530
00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:08,280
Speaker 1: aoc Ocasio Cortez is out there just just openly promoting this,

531
00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:11,240
Speaker 1: and it really comes down to not you're going to

532
00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:15,560
Speaker 1: see more of this. It's not just about healthcare, healthcare expenditures,

533
00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:18,160
Speaker 1: the cost and all that. It's also increasingly just about

534
00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:20,920
Speaker 1: what's fair. Right. This is this is very much an

535
00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:24,440
Speaker 1: Obama word, right, what's fair? Pay your fair share. This

536
00:33:24,640 --> 00:33:28,080
Speaker 1: is about justice. This is about people should have free

537
00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:30,280
Speaker 1: stuff because there are too many rich people who have

538
00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:34,200
Speaker 1: too much stuff. This is that's not an economic argument,

539
00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:38,840
Speaker 1: that's a social justice argument. And that's when it comes

540
00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:42,480
Speaker 1: to eliminating private health insurance, which Kamala Harris said she wants.

541
00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:45,880
Speaker 1: That is the argument that increasingly is going to be

542
00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:49,320
Speaker 1: made by the left going forward. It's not even about

543
00:33:49,320 --> 00:33:51,520
Speaker 1: the numbers. Just do it because it's the right thing

544
00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:56,040
Speaker 1: to do. They will say, play clip two. Do you

545
00:33:56,160 --> 00:34:00,040
Speaker 1: support Senator Harris's proposed last night Medicare for all and

546
00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:02,520
Speaker 1: eliminated by the trans companies? You know, I think that

547
00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:05,840
Speaker 1: I think that's the direction that we absolutely need to

548
00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:10,240
Speaker 1: go in. Medicare for all would save the American people

549
00:34:10,640 --> 00:34:13,560
Speaker 1: a very large amount of money. Capitalism has not always

550
00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:16,840
Speaker 1: existed in the world, and it will not always exist

551
00:34:16,920 --> 00:34:21,760
Speaker 1: in the world. Maybe this idea of idealizing this outcome

552
00:34:21,840 --> 00:34:24,840
Speaker 1: of maybe one day you two can be a billionaire

553
00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:28,200
Speaker 1: and own more than millions of families combined, is not

554
00:34:28,760 --> 00:34:35,120
Speaker 1: an aspirational or good thing. How much is at? What level?

555
00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:38,319
Speaker 1: Are we really just living in excess? And what kind

556
00:34:38,360 --> 00:34:43,880
Speaker 1: of society do we want to live in? Alexandria Ocasio

557
00:34:44,040 --> 00:34:52,040
Speaker 1: Cortez wants people to be poorer because we'll all feel

558
00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:56,040
Speaker 1: better if we're all a little poorer. That's what this

559
00:34:56,160 --> 00:35:00,480
Speaker 1: really comes down to. It is the philosophy of pulling

560
00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:04,359
Speaker 1: people down so that the people below them feel more

561
00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:07,759
Speaker 1: comfortable with where they are. It's not going to make

562
00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:09,640
Speaker 1: their lives better, it's not going to make things better

563
00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:13,879
Speaker 1: for them. This is very dangerous, and it is being

564
00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:19,960
Speaker 1: more and more openly embraced on the left. This is

565
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:22,800
Speaker 1: going to be the argument that you hear in the

566
00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:25,920
Speaker 1: Democrat primary. And I think even when the Democrat candidate

567
00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:30,880
Speaker 1: is finally decided, and you know Schultz who says he

568
00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:34,040
Speaker 1: might run third party, and the left is freaking out

569
00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:35,839
Speaker 1: because they all that they hear third party, and all

570
00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:38,319
Speaker 1: they can think about is former years of Trump, which

571
00:35:38,440 --> 00:35:42,080
Speaker 1: makes their heads explode. Schultz is speaking truth on this stuff.

572
00:35:42,080 --> 00:35:44,400
Speaker 1: And I know, I'm not even getting into his policies

573
00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:46,120
Speaker 1: that I disagree with, and I'm sure he's a climate

574
00:35:46,200 --> 00:35:49,200
Speaker 1: change not in all that other stuff. The Democratic Party

575
00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:53,480
Speaker 1: has radicalized to the left in a lot of ways,

576
00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:55,680
Speaker 1: as we've been discussing this hour. But here's what Schultz said,

577
00:35:55,719 --> 00:35:57,799
Speaker 1: play six. If you kind of look at the tea

578
00:35:57,880 --> 00:36:03,080
Speaker 1: leaves today, it appears the Democratic Party is shifting far,

579
00:36:03,239 --> 00:36:07,920
Speaker 1: far left, with very strong progressive ideas, the likes of

580
00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:14,120
Speaker 1: which we should talk about. Yep, his assessment is correct.

581
00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:18,279
Speaker 1: The Democrat Party is far left, especially now on the

582
00:36:18,360 --> 00:36:20,920
Speaker 1: issue of healthcare. They're more open about it than ever.

583
00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:24,120
Speaker 1: What is the truth of single payer? What would it

584
00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:27,080
Speaker 1: mean to have medicare for all my friend Ovic Roy,

585
00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:29,120
Speaker 1: who is a fantastic expert of this, He's going to

586
00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:31,000
Speaker 1: join us for a deep dive into this. If you

587
00:36:31,120 --> 00:36:34,960
Speaker 1: listen to this interview, you will know more than ninety percent,

588
00:36:35,120 --> 00:36:37,160
Speaker 1: probably ninety five percent of the people who go on

589
00:36:37,280 --> 00:36:39,359
Speaker 1: TV and talk about it. Listen to what my man

590
00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:42,880
Speaker 1: Ovic has to say that's coming up. Hiring can be

591
00:36:43,080 --> 00:36:45,000
Speaker 1: time consuming. We've had to do a lot of it

592
00:36:45,200 --> 00:36:48,239
Speaker 1: at Hill TV, so I've been through this process. And

593
00:36:48,480 --> 00:36:50,960
Speaker 1: you know, you post a job to these different online boards,

594
00:36:51,160 --> 00:36:53,040
Speaker 1: you'll get a lot of the wrong resumes from the

595
00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:56,000
Speaker 1: wrong people when you really just need something to sort

596
00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:58,440
Speaker 1: through the resumes and find people that have the right

597
00:36:58,520 --> 00:37:01,799
Speaker 1: skills and expertise for the job opening that you've got right.

598
00:37:02,120 --> 00:37:04,920
Speaker 1: So those job sites that overwhelm you with the wrong resumes,

599
00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:07,400
Speaker 1: they're not smart. That's why you should do the smart thing,

600
00:37:07,520 --> 00:37:09,680

Speaker 1: needs to be on the table, and single payer sure

615
00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:57,760
Speaker 1: ought to be at the tops. Everyone all should receive

616
00:37:57,920 --> 00:38:01,560
Speaker 1: the healthcare they need, regardless of where they live, their income,

617
00:38:01,840 --> 00:38:04,600
Speaker 1: or their zip code. This is about a right, not

618
00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:08,000
Speaker 1: about a privilege for a few. And let's be clear,

619
00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:11,200
Speaker 1: it is not only about what is the right thing

620
00:38:11,280 --> 00:38:15,560
Speaker 1: to do morally and ethically. It's also smart in terms

621
00:38:15,600 --> 00:38:19,200
Speaker 1: of the fiscal impact, a single pay a healthcare system

622
00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:23,840
Speaker 1: would save the average family significant sums of money. And

623
00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:28,520
Speaker 1: what Republicans sometimes do is confuse the issue and they say, well,

624
00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:30,800
Speaker 1: you're going to pay more in taxes. What they forget

625
00:38:30,880 --> 00:38:32,480
Speaker 1: to tell you is that if you were a family

626
00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:36,160
Speaker 1: of four now paying fifteen or twenty thousand dollars a

627
00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:39,080
Speaker 1: year in private health insurance, You're not going to be

628
00:38:39,160 --> 00:38:42,920
Speaker 1: paying that at all. The new hotness on the progressive

629
00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:46,320
Speaker 1: left single payer. Gosh, I'm old enough to remember just

630
00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:49,279
Speaker 1: a few years back when to say that Obamacare was

631
00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:52,520
Speaker 1: really just a way of getting a single payer with

632
00:38:52,680 --> 00:38:57,800
Speaker 1: some kind of mean, unfair, maybe even racist comment. But

633
00:38:58,120 --> 00:38:59,880
Speaker 1: here we are. Turns out that was true all on.

634
00:39:00,520 --> 00:39:04,000
Speaker 1: What is the truth of what's happening here with single pair?

635
00:39:04,200 --> 00:39:05,480
Speaker 1: Is it a good idea? I want to I want

636
00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:07,480
Speaker 1: to tackle some of these statements, and I brought on

637
00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:10,280
Speaker 1: an expert to help us do that. We have Ovic

638
00:39:10,400 --> 00:39:12,200
Speaker 1: Roy with us, who, by the way, has an MD.

639
00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:15,440
Speaker 1: On top of being a generally brilliant and insightful fellow,

640
00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:18,239
Speaker 1: he's also the president of the Foundation for Research on

641
00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:21,319
Speaker 1: Equal Opportunity. To see what he's up to, free op

642
00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:26,160
Speaker 1: f r e eo pp dot org free op oppa,

643
00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:30,120
Speaker 1: you know me dot org uster. Mister Roy, good, have

644
00:39:30,239 --> 00:39:34,520
Speaker 1: you hey, man? How's it going. I'm good, I'm good.

645
00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:37,879
Speaker 1: So let's start with this. What is your just your

646
00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:42,439
Speaker 1: your first reaction when you hear Bernie Sanders, Kamala, Harris Warren, etc.

647
00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:46,359
Speaker 1: They're all saying single payer, medicare for all, or at

648
00:39:46,400 --> 00:39:49,279
Speaker 1: least they're saying medicare for all. You say what to this?

649
00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:52,880
Speaker 1: What I say, Buck, is that only half of what

650
00:39:53,040 --> 00:39:57,040
Speaker 1: they're saying is crazy, and single pair is a greater

651
00:39:57,320 --> 00:40:01,680
Speaker 1: threat than I think a lot of us realize. That's

652
00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:05,399
Speaker 1: that's pretty that's pretty disconcerting. We walk me through. Let's

653
00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:07,759
Speaker 1: take some of these some of these big statements that

654
00:40:07,880 --> 00:40:09,920
Speaker 1: they make, and you tell me the truth of it

655
00:40:10,040 --> 00:40:12,279
Speaker 1: or where it comes on. For example, here here's you know,

656
00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:14,480
Speaker 1: I get a little frustrated because a lot of my

657
00:40:14,560 --> 00:40:17,520
Speaker 1: Republican friends, a lot of my conservative brothers and sisters,

658
00:40:17,840 --> 00:40:24,719
Speaker 1: will just say that Venezuela is all you need to say, right,

659
00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:28,600
Speaker 1: look at Venezuela, socialism, Venezuela. And while Venezuela is instructive

660
00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:32,520
Speaker 1: in some ways, obviously, the left, the progressives, they just say, Okay,

661
00:40:32,640 --> 00:40:36,080
Speaker 1: what about Denmark, what about Sweden? Sweden does it? Why

662
00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:38,680
Speaker 1: can't we? The UK does it? Why can't we? What

663
00:40:38,760 --> 00:40:42,279
Speaker 1: do you say to that? Over? Yeah? And there again

664
00:40:42,360 --> 00:40:45,839
Speaker 1: that's the part that's not crazy. Here's an amazing statistic, Buck,

665
00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:48,239
Speaker 1: that a lot of your listeners won't know, and that

666
00:40:48,480 --> 00:40:52,560
Speaker 1: is that government's spending on healthcare, not total spending. Government

667
00:40:52,680 --> 00:40:56,520
Speaker 1: spending on healthcare per person in the United States is

668
00:40:56,680 --> 00:40:59,920
Speaker 1: higher than all but two other countries in the world's,

669
00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:03,120
Speaker 1: higher than the UK, higher than Canada, higher than France,

670
00:41:03,360 --> 00:41:07,040
Speaker 1: higher than Sweden. That's the amazing thing is our system

671
00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:09,800
Speaker 1: for all the sort of the good things that we

672
00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:13,400
Speaker 1: have in America, our healthcare system is so inefficient and

673
00:41:13,600 --> 00:41:18,960
Speaker 1: so expensive do largely the government policy. That government spending

674
00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:21,960
Speaker 1: on healthcare in America per person is far greater than

675
00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:23,880
Speaker 1: it is almost every other country in the world. So

676
00:41:24,400 --> 00:41:27,440
Speaker 1: when Bernie Sanders and Kamala Harris always people say, hey,

677
00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:30,120
Speaker 1: a single payer system like the UK or Canada would

678
00:41:30,160 --> 00:41:33,319
Speaker 1: save us money, they are right now. The thing they

679
00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:36,520
Speaker 1: don't tell you is that to get to that kind

680
00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:39,879
Speaker 1: of savings cost savings from where we are today, you'd

681
00:41:39,920 --> 00:41:41,839
Speaker 1: have to cut what we pay hospitals while we pay

682
00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:45,320
Speaker 1: doctors while we pay drug companies by fifty percent. And

683
00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:48,520
Speaker 1: no drug lobby or hospital lobby or doctors lobby is

684
00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:51,080
Speaker 1: going to go for that. And so what you're eventually

685
00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:52,839
Speaker 1: what you actually are going to have in America if

686
00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:54,960
Speaker 1: you try to have single pair is you're going to

687
00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:57,320
Speaker 1: have a system in which the cost to healthcare is

688
00:41:57,360 --> 00:41:59,759
Speaker 1: the same, it's just that the government's paying for it.

689
00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:02,680
Speaker 1: What would that do? That would increase federal spending in

690
00:42:02,719 --> 00:42:06,200
Speaker 1: America over the next ten years by thirty three trillion

691
00:42:06,320 --> 00:42:09,319
Speaker 1: dollars with a t That would increase federal spending by

692
00:42:09,440 --> 00:42:12,560
Speaker 1: seventy one percent total federal spending, by the way, not

693
00:42:12,680 --> 00:42:16,280
Speaker 1: just the healthcare piece. So the problem with a single

694
00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:18,719
Speaker 1: payer is a devil whity take the tails if you

695
00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:22,239
Speaker 1: actually do it the way that UK and Canada, those

696
00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:25,080
Speaker 1: countries do it, whether there's rationing and there's restrictions and

697
00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:29,120
Speaker 1: price controls and restrictions on access to high price services. Yeah,

698
00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:32,279
Speaker 1: you could have a system that cost less in terms

699
00:42:32,320 --> 00:42:35,560
Speaker 1: of government spending, but what we spend. Now, there's another

700
00:42:35,600 --> 00:42:39,680
Speaker 1: important point, buck, and that is government run healthcare is

701
00:42:39,719 --> 00:42:42,280
Speaker 1: not the only way to save money in our healthcare system.

702
00:42:42,760 --> 00:42:46,280
Speaker 1: Market based healthcare systems like the ones in Switzerland Singapore

703
00:42:46,800 --> 00:42:49,960
Speaker 1: spend far less than all those single payer countries. You

704
00:42:50,120 --> 00:42:54,160
Speaker 1: never hear the Democrats talk about that, and that's the

705
00:42:54,239 --> 00:42:56,279
Speaker 1: theme of a lot of the work we've done at

706
00:42:56,360 --> 00:42:58,840
Speaker 1: my think tank, Free opt Dot Org where you know,

707
00:42:58,920 --> 00:43:01,600
Speaker 1: we have a white paper called Transtanting Obamacare that details

708
00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:04,200
Speaker 1: in a hundred pages for those who really care, how

709
00:43:04,280 --> 00:43:06,960
Speaker 1: exactly you could transition our system, which is not a

710
00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:09,960
Speaker 1: free market system, into one that is so that there's

711
00:43:10,040 --> 00:43:15,000
Speaker 1: more competition, more choice, and lower costs. Oh, Vic, you know,

712
00:43:15,080 --> 00:43:18,000
Speaker 1: this is where though, we get caught up in and

713
00:43:18,200 --> 00:43:20,359
Speaker 1: just what sounds good to people? And what a lot

714
00:43:20,440 --> 00:43:23,920
Speaker 1: of what a lot of the democrat the Democrats that

715
00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:26,680
Speaker 1: are front runners right now are saying, is effectively things

716
00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:29,319
Speaker 1: aren't so bad in Canada. Why don't we do Why

717
00:43:29,320 --> 00:43:32,759
Speaker 1: don't we just do what what Canada does? And what

718
00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:34,680
Speaker 1: you know? And the answer, so, well, what is the

719
00:43:34,719 --> 00:43:36,440
Speaker 1: answer to that from your perspective? Why don't we just

720
00:43:36,520 --> 00:43:39,480
Speaker 1: do what Canada does? Yeah? I mean, you know, if

721
00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:41,960
Speaker 1: you do what Canada is basically the Canvas system. The

722
00:43:42,080 --> 00:43:46,320
Speaker 1: hospitals and the drug companies and the doctors are theoretically private.

723
00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:50,320
Speaker 1: The insurance is a single payer system. All the insured.

724
00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:53,720
Speaker 1: There's one insured, the government of Canada. The British system,

725
00:43:53,800 --> 00:43:57,439
Speaker 1: by contrast, it's completely socialized, like the VA, where both

726
00:43:57,880 --> 00:44:00,799
Speaker 1: the insurers and the hospitals and the doctors are all

727
00:44:00,960 --> 00:44:02,960
Speaker 1: either owned by the government or employee by the groom.

728
00:44:03,040 --> 00:44:05,759
Speaker 1: So that's more like the East German healthcare system the

729
00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:09,200
Speaker 1: British system. So there's a there are differences between different countries.

730
00:44:09,239 --> 00:44:11,480
Speaker 1: And by the way, this is important for you to understand,

731
00:44:11,800 --> 00:44:14,720
Speaker 1: not every country is single payer that has universal coverage.

732
00:44:14,800 --> 00:44:17,680
Speaker 1: Universal coverage and single payer are not the same thing.

733
00:44:18,520 --> 00:44:21,080
Speaker 1: For example, we have almost every American has a TV,

734
00:44:21,600 --> 00:44:24,040
Speaker 1: but that there was no single payer TV system that

735
00:44:24,120 --> 00:44:26,360
Speaker 1: created that. Right, we all have TVs because we like

736
00:44:26,480 --> 00:44:29,279
Speaker 1: to watch TV, and TV isn't that expensive to buy. Right.

737
00:44:29,440 --> 00:44:31,719
Speaker 1: The same could be true with health insurance. If we

738
00:44:31,840 --> 00:44:34,759
Speaker 1: had a market based system for health insurance, we would

739
00:44:34,760 --> 00:44:37,399
Speaker 1: actually have health insurance. It's not expensive and everyone would

740
00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:40,080
Speaker 1: have it. We'd have universal coverage. So what's so great

741
00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:43,040
Speaker 1: about Canada from the left standpoint that it spends less

742
00:44:43,160 --> 00:44:45,840
Speaker 1: money and that everybody has health insurance, which is a

743
00:44:45,880 --> 00:44:47,920
Speaker 1: good thing. It is a good thing that everybody has

744
00:44:47,960 --> 00:44:50,000
Speaker 1: health insurance, and it's a good thing that we spend

745
00:44:50,080 --> 00:44:53,000
Speaker 1: less money. Now here's the downside. The downside is that

746
00:44:53,120 --> 00:44:56,520
Speaker 1: the way Canada does it is through waiting lists. They

747
00:44:56,640 --> 00:44:59,799
Speaker 1: basically restrict your access to the latest technology. They were

748
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:03,640
Speaker 1: strict your access to procedures that they don't think we're important.

749
00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:05,359
Speaker 1: If you want to get if you bust your knee

750
00:45:05,360 --> 00:45:06,759
Speaker 1: and you need to get you carry your ACL and

751
00:45:06,800 --> 00:45:09,719
Speaker 1: you knee replacement. In Canada, the average wait time is

752
00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:13,680
Speaker 1: fourteen months on more than a year, because Canada thinks

753
00:45:13,719 --> 00:45:16,799
Speaker 1: that people don't really need any replacements. So basically people

754
00:45:16,840 --> 00:45:19,160
Speaker 1: have to come to America to get their knees replaced.

755
00:45:19,440 --> 00:45:21,880
Speaker 1: So there are a lot of downsides the Canadian system.

756
00:45:21,960 --> 00:45:24,000
Speaker 1: But again, the point I'm trying to make here is

757
00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:27,840
Speaker 1: it's not enough for conservatives to say, oh, yeah, Kamala Harris,

758
00:45:28,040 --> 00:45:33,040
Speaker 1: she's crazy Venezuela bang right. That that's not good enough

759
00:45:33,360 --> 00:45:36,960
Speaker 1: because the average family today is spending more on their

760
00:45:37,040 --> 00:45:40,600
Speaker 1: hospital bills than they are in taxes. The median household

761
00:45:40,920 --> 00:45:42,960
Speaker 1: in America in terms of income, it's about sixty two

762
00:45:42,960 --> 00:45:46,040
Speaker 1: thousand dollars thanks to the Republican tax cuts, their tax

763
00:45:46,160 --> 00:45:49,160
Speaker 1: rates about thirteen and a half percent, but they're spending

764
00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:52,600
Speaker 1: twenty percent of their income all in on hospital spending,

765
00:45:52,920 --> 00:45:54,960
Speaker 1: not and that doesn't even include the drug and everything else.

766
00:45:55,160 --> 00:45:58,160
Speaker 1: So American healthcare is way too expensive and conservatives have

767
00:45:58,400 --> 00:46:02,120
Speaker 1: to have positive saluteans that reduce the cost of healthcare

768
00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:05,560
Speaker 1: in America. So the costs are too high. I mean,

769
00:46:05,600 --> 00:46:07,719
Speaker 1: so you would agree with this, is this is not

770
00:46:07,840 --> 00:46:11,840
Speaker 1: just a perception like people get into it, go ahead. No,

771
00:46:12,000 --> 00:46:14,319
Speaker 1: I'm just saying no, it's not a perception. It's absolutely

772
00:46:14,360 --> 00:46:17,000
Speaker 1: the fact. Not only are they too high, they are extreme.

773
00:46:17,920 --> 00:46:21,760
Speaker 1: Healthcare prices in America are extreme compared to other countries.

774
00:46:21,800 --> 00:46:24,879
Speaker 1: And it's not because of the market. The market isn't

775
00:46:24,920 --> 00:46:28,920
Speaker 1: the reason why prices are extreme. Chrony capitalism is the

776
00:46:29,040 --> 00:46:32,960
Speaker 1: reason why prices are extreme in America. Government policies that

777
00:46:33,120 --> 00:46:37,760
Speaker 1: create monopolies, that create barriers to competition, that restrict choice,

778
00:46:38,200 --> 00:46:41,720
Speaker 1: and remove the everyday patient from the cost and price

779
00:46:41,800 --> 00:46:46,120
Speaker 1: and value of the healthcare that he buys. As you know, Buck,

780
00:46:46,400 --> 00:46:48,319
Speaker 1: so many of us, most of us. In fact, ninety

781
00:46:48,360 --> 00:46:50,560
Speaker 1: percent of Americans don't buy their own health in term,

782
00:46:50,880 --> 00:46:53,399
Speaker 1: it's bought on their behalf by somebody else, whether it's

783
00:46:53,400 --> 00:46:56,000
Speaker 1: their employer or the government. That's one of the most

784
00:46:56,080 --> 00:46:57,800
Speaker 1: important things we want to fix. So you have to

785
00:46:57,840 --> 00:46:59,480
Speaker 1: have a market, you want to have a market based system.

786
00:47:00,040 --> 00:47:02,319
Speaker 1: Will have to start buying their own insurance, and they

787
00:47:02,400 --> 00:47:04,240
Speaker 1: have to be free to buy the kind of insurance

788
00:47:04,239 --> 00:47:05,960
Speaker 1: that they want, not the kind of insurance, but the

789
00:47:06,040 --> 00:47:09,040
Speaker 1: federal government tells them to buy. You know, you'll also

790
00:47:09,160 --> 00:47:12,279
Speaker 1: hear of it that there's that there will get that

791
00:47:12,400 --> 00:47:14,759
Speaker 1: we get worse. This is one of the big talking

792
00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:17,120
Speaker 1: points from left of the time, we have worse outcomes

793
00:47:17,200 --> 00:47:19,160
Speaker 1: and spend more money. You've already addressed the we are

794
00:47:19,200 --> 00:47:20,799
Speaker 1: spending more money. We spend a lot of the government

795
00:47:20,800 --> 00:47:22,440
Speaker 1: spends a lot of money on healthcare in this country,

796
00:47:22,440 --> 00:47:24,440
Speaker 1: and the American people spend a lot of money in healthcare.

797
00:47:24,920 --> 00:47:29,279
Speaker 1: But how do you address the outcomes issue? Yeah, it's

798
00:47:29,320 --> 00:47:33,120
Speaker 1: true that inaggregate, in certain ways we have worse outcomes,

799
00:47:33,200 --> 00:47:35,440
Speaker 1: like our life expectancy is lower and things like that.

800
00:47:36,239 --> 00:47:39,480
Speaker 1: You have to kind of unpack those statistics because if

801
00:47:39,520 --> 00:47:42,600
Speaker 1: you look at the white population the United States, it's

802
00:47:42,640 --> 00:47:45,560
Speaker 1: pretty comparable to Europe in terms of health outcomes. Where

803
00:47:45,920 --> 00:47:49,480
Speaker 1: where we really fail is with racial and ethnic minorities,

804
00:47:49,520 --> 00:47:52,959
Speaker 1: particularly blacks. And obviously the reason why that's the case

805
00:47:53,200 --> 00:47:56,040
Speaker 1: is not because of the healthcare system necessarily, it's about

806
00:47:56,080 --> 00:47:59,400
Speaker 1: the broader the legacy of slavery and segregation and the

807
00:48:00,320 --> 00:48:03,360
Speaker 1: poverty that a lot of urban blocks find themselves in.

808
00:48:03,480 --> 00:48:05,960
Speaker 1: So that's like, so, yeah, you know, the whole thing

809
00:48:06,000 --> 00:48:09,760
Speaker 1: about health outcomes, it's it's it's a complicated subject because

810
00:48:09,800 --> 00:48:12,840
Speaker 1: how much of what we call health insurance relates to

811
00:48:12,960 --> 00:48:17,080
Speaker 1: the reasons why low income minorities struggle in America's well.

812
00:48:17,080 --> 00:48:19,640
Speaker 1: And also we have we do have higher rates of

813
00:48:19,800 --> 00:48:23,640
Speaker 1: obesity type two, by diabetes, heart conditions, and those are

814
00:48:24,120 --> 00:48:28,719
Speaker 1: diseases generally diseases of lifestyle, right, so, and Americans are

815
00:48:28,840 --> 00:48:31,400
Speaker 1: noticeably less healthy. This is the one thing where Europeans,

816
00:48:31,400 --> 00:48:34,319
Speaker 1: I think, do this in soccer. Europeans are better than us.

817
00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:37,360
Speaker 1: But whatever, we get to eat better, more delicious cheeseburgers. Oh,

818
00:48:37,560 --> 00:48:38,759
Speaker 1: can we hold it through the breaks? I got a

819
00:48:38,760 --> 00:48:40,960
Speaker 1: few more questions. I want to I want to take

820
00:48:41,000 --> 00:48:42,840
Speaker 1: the Ovic arsenal and make it my own so that

821
00:48:42,880 --> 00:48:44,640
Speaker 1: when I have to go talk to libs on this one,

822
00:48:45,040 --> 00:48:47,960
Speaker 1: I can crush them. Everywhere we're talking to Ovic Roy.

823
00:48:48,200 --> 00:48:50,200
Speaker 1: He is the man on this issue, the president for

824
00:48:50,280 --> 00:48:53,920
Speaker 1: the Foundation for Research on Equal Opportunity Free Up dot org.

825
00:48:54,040 --> 00:48:58,520

00:49:57,120 --> 00:50:00,600
Speaker 1: back with oh Vic Roy from the Founda for Research

847
00:50:00,680 --> 00:50:02,800
Speaker 1: on Equal opportunity where he is the president, he is

848
00:50:02,800 --> 00:50:05,839
Speaker 1: a healthcare expert legitimately actually has an MD, which I'm

849
00:50:05,840 --> 00:50:08,920
Speaker 1: always very impressed by people in the media generally, you know,

850
00:50:09,160 --> 00:50:11,239
Speaker 1: they think that a one year journalism degrees is a

851
00:50:11,320 --> 00:50:17,640
Speaker 1: fancy thing. Um Ovic, Kempbell Harris is talking about replacing

852
00:50:17,760 --> 00:50:21,279
Speaker 1: all private health insurance. Now, I had always thought and

853
00:50:21,440 --> 00:50:23,520
Speaker 1: and it makes sense at least when you when you

854
00:50:23,600 --> 00:50:26,719
Speaker 1: first run the numbers on it, that the one thing

855
00:50:26,880 --> 00:50:32,120
Speaker 1: that makes the Democrat goal impossible of single payer or

856
00:50:32,239 --> 00:50:35,360
Speaker 1: medicare for all of that system is that you're going

857
00:50:35,440 --> 00:50:37,200
Speaker 1: to have to tell ninety percent of people who have

858
00:50:37,280 --> 00:50:40,840
Speaker 1: private health insurance, sorry, your plan is gone. Is that

859
00:50:41,120 --> 00:50:44,640
Speaker 1: the bulwork against this that we would like it to be?

860
00:50:44,920 --> 00:50:48,840
Speaker 1: And if not, how would a president President Warren Harris

861
00:50:48,920 --> 00:50:52,000
Speaker 1: Sanders implement this vision as you see it? Like, what,

862
00:50:52,280 --> 00:50:55,680
Speaker 1: how do we know that this is actually happening? Well,

863
00:50:55,719 --> 00:50:58,040
Speaker 1: first of all, it's not ninety percent of Americans who

864
00:50:58,080 --> 00:51:01,480
Speaker 1: have private health insurance. It's more like sixty percent of

865
00:51:01,520 --> 00:51:05,160
Speaker 1: Americans have private health insurance, forty percent I'm sorry, who

866
00:51:05,200 --> 00:51:07,960
Speaker 1: have coverage, right, yeah, yeah, go ahead, yeah for you know,

867
00:51:08,360 --> 00:51:10,719
Speaker 1: nine percent half health insurance. Yeah, of the ninety percent

868
00:51:10,760 --> 00:51:14,080
Speaker 1: who have health insurance, sixty percent have through the through

869
00:51:14,440 --> 00:51:16,719
Speaker 1: private insurers, and forty percent half through the government. So,

870
00:51:16,800 --> 00:51:19,279
Speaker 1: for example, the people who are on Medicaid, the people

871
00:51:19,280 --> 00:51:21,520
Speaker 1: who are on Medicare, Medicare is basically a single parent

872
00:51:21,600 --> 00:51:24,879
Speaker 1: fayre insure UM. That's why they call it Medicare for all.

873
00:51:25,120 --> 00:51:27,320
Speaker 1: People who are on the VA, people who are on

874
00:51:27,480 --> 00:51:30,799
Speaker 1: active duty military Defense Department healthcare. That's so almost half

875
00:51:30,840 --> 00:51:33,600
Speaker 1: of the covered population is already getting some form of

876
00:51:33,719 --> 00:51:37,719
Speaker 1: government involved healthcare. Yeah, I mean, yeah, forty percent. So

877
00:51:37,880 --> 00:51:40,799
Speaker 1: that's that's the thing. So you know, that's that's why,

878
00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:42,920
Speaker 1: that's what they're trying to build on. And that's why

879
00:51:43,000 --> 00:51:46,000
Speaker 1: when they stay say Medicare for all, because Medicare it's

880
00:51:46,040 --> 00:51:48,719
Speaker 1: single payer healthcare. And there are you know, seventy million

881
00:51:48,760 --> 00:51:52,279
Speaker 1: people on Medicare, and there are another sixty million people

882
00:51:52,320 --> 00:51:55,040
Speaker 1: on Medicaid UM. And then there's the ten million on

883
00:51:55,200 --> 00:51:57,759
Speaker 1: the VA, and and and then the five million or

884
00:51:57,840 --> 00:52:00,239
Speaker 1: whatever the number is, I can't remember exactly for ACTI

885
00:52:00,280 --> 00:52:02,239
Speaker 1: duty military. A lot of people, if you add it

886
00:52:02,239 --> 00:52:05,520
Speaker 1: all up, who are already on government run healthcare. So

887
00:52:06,120 --> 00:52:08,560
Speaker 1: we don't have this free market system. That's the first

888
00:52:08,600 --> 00:52:12,839
Speaker 1: thing to appreciate. But you're right that when Kamala Harris says, oh, yeah,

889
00:52:12,960 --> 00:52:16,080
Speaker 1: you know, let's eliminate your private insurance and replace it

890
00:52:16,160 --> 00:52:18,960
Speaker 1: with government insurance, that's yeah. Maybe some people on the

891
00:52:19,040 --> 00:52:22,120
Speaker 1: left are looking forward to that time when they can

892
00:52:22,320 --> 00:52:25,000
Speaker 1: trade in their private insurance for government interns, but lots

893
00:52:25,040 --> 00:52:29,040
Speaker 1: of other people are not. And so yes, I don't

894
00:52:29,080 --> 00:52:32,480
Speaker 1: think that single payer in that sense is likely. But

895
00:52:33,520 --> 00:52:37,680
Speaker 1: as we know, that hasn't stopped Democrats from expanding the

896
00:52:37,760 --> 00:52:40,520
Speaker 1: reach of government to have a public option, say, or

897
00:52:40,600 --> 00:52:43,680
Speaker 1: to decrease the eligibility age of Medicare from sixty five

898
00:52:43,760 --> 00:52:46,360
Speaker 1: to fifty five, and all these kind of chip away,

899
00:52:46,520 --> 00:52:50,080
Speaker 1: incremental kind of things that they can do to expand

900
00:52:50,160 --> 00:52:52,640
Speaker 1: the reach and role of government insurance. So just because

901
00:52:53,040 --> 00:52:57,400
Speaker 1: single payer can't be achieved in one cell swoop, that

902
00:52:57,560 --> 00:53:01,200
Speaker 1: doesn't mean that conservatives are in the clear. And again,

903
00:53:01,600 --> 00:53:04,640
Speaker 1: you can't beat something with nothing. The healthcare system in

904
00:53:04,680 --> 00:53:10,640
Speaker 1: America is legitimately broken, it's legitimately extremely expensive, and conservatives

905
00:53:10,680 --> 00:53:13,200
Speaker 1: can't just sit around and say, oh, well, we're against socialism.

906
00:53:13,600 --> 00:53:16,840
Speaker 1: The socialism is happening right now in terms of the

907
00:53:17,440 --> 00:53:22,280
Speaker 1: insane profits that companies are making by basically being federally

908
00:53:22,400 --> 00:53:27,279
Speaker 1: licensed monopolies instead of competitive markets. Who are the bad

909
00:53:27,360 --> 00:53:32,120
Speaker 1: guys in this well, there's there's lots of bad guys

910
00:53:32,120 --> 00:53:34,200
Speaker 1: and people. People beat up on the drug companies a lot.

911
00:53:34,239 --> 00:53:37,319
Speaker 1: I mean, who else goes on that list? I put

912
00:53:37,360 --> 00:53:40,640
Speaker 1: the hospitals at number one because mainly, if you think

913
00:53:40,680 --> 00:53:44,000
Speaker 1: about what we spend on healthcare in America, about a

914
00:53:44,080 --> 00:53:47,440
Speaker 1: third of its hospital spending, about fifteen percent of as

915
00:53:47,520 --> 00:53:50,759
Speaker 1: drugs and another twenty percent as doctors. I don't think

916
00:53:50,840 --> 00:53:53,480
Speaker 1: doctors are the bad guys generally, though there are. There

917
00:53:53,520 --> 00:53:55,960
Speaker 1: are some bad apples in the medical profession. We have

918
00:53:56,040 --> 00:53:58,400
Speaker 1: to be honest about that. But really the hospitals and

919
00:53:58,440 --> 00:54:01,359
Speaker 1: the drug companies are. That's half the spending, and if

920
00:54:01,400 --> 00:54:04,120
Speaker 1: we actually were able to do something about those two pieces,

921
00:54:04,560 --> 00:54:06,480
Speaker 1: we do a lot to make healthcare more afforable. And

922
00:54:06,480 --> 00:54:09,640
Speaker 1: I will say the Trumpet administration has been really smart

923
00:54:10,239 --> 00:54:13,520
Speaker 1: and savvy about how they've tried to reduce the cost

924
00:54:13,560 --> 00:54:15,879
Speaker 1: of prescription drugs. There's a lot of stuff that they're

925
00:54:15,960 --> 00:54:18,600
Speaker 1: doing that I think deserves a lot more attention and

926
00:54:18,840 --> 00:54:22,279
Speaker 1: praise from conservatives than I think has been appreciated on

927
00:54:22,400 --> 00:54:27,480
Speaker 1: the hospital side. The Indiana Republican congressman named Jim Banks

928
00:54:27,880 --> 00:54:30,320
Speaker 1: from northeast Indiana just put out a bill called the

929
00:54:30,440 --> 00:54:34,279
Speaker 1: Hospital Competition Act, which is a terrific bill that really

930
00:54:34,360 --> 00:54:37,839
Speaker 1: tries to tackle the problem of regional hospital monopolies which

931
00:54:37,880 --> 00:54:41,160
Speaker 1: have merged with other crosstown rivals to build these big

932
00:54:41,239 --> 00:54:44,600
Speaker 1: monopolies where they can basically tell insurers, we're going to

933
00:54:44,680 --> 00:54:46,520
Speaker 1: jack up the price of a knee replacement by ten

934
00:54:46,600 --> 00:54:49,000
Speaker 1: percent this year, and you have to eat it because

935
00:54:49,400 --> 00:54:51,840
Speaker 1: the insurer doesn't have any bargaining part. Because the insurer

936
00:54:51,880 --> 00:54:54,520
Speaker 1: can't send its patience to another hospital because there is

937
00:54:54,600 --> 00:54:58,200
Speaker 1: no other hospital. One hospital system owns all the hospitals

938
00:54:58,239 --> 00:55:01,359
Speaker 1: in a community. So that's becoming huge problem, and that's

939
00:55:01,400 --> 00:55:04,799
Speaker 1: why private health insurance has become a lot more expensive

940
00:55:05,239 --> 00:55:09,000
Speaker 1: than Medicare and medicaid. The government, for all of its flaws,

941
00:55:09,320 --> 00:55:10,960
Speaker 1: you know you can't you can't you know you can't

942
00:55:11,000 --> 00:55:13,080
Speaker 1: be you can't dictate prices to the government. The government

943
00:55:13,120 --> 00:55:16,320
Speaker 1: dictates prices to you, right, whereas for the private insurers,

944
00:55:16,360 --> 00:55:20,320
Speaker 1: they don't have that same ability. So private insurance is

945
00:55:20,320 --> 00:55:22,719
Speaker 1: steadily getting more and more expensive, and that's why you're

946
00:55:22,719 --> 00:55:26,160
Speaker 1: seeing more and more Americans say, you know what, I

947
00:55:26,680 --> 00:55:28,799
Speaker 1: used to believe in the private sector system, but I'm

948
00:55:28,840 --> 00:55:31,560
Speaker 1: I'm I'm more open minded about single pare now because

949
00:55:31,600 --> 00:55:34,840
Speaker 1: I'm sick of getting higher premiums and a flat paycheck

950
00:55:34,920 --> 00:55:37,919
Speaker 1: every month. What does Trump need to do going into

951
00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:40,120
Speaker 1: what's You know it's going to be a highly contentious election.

952
00:55:40,160 --> 00:55:42,200
Speaker 1: We've only got about a minute, ovic, But what's your

953
00:55:42,280 --> 00:55:46,640
Speaker 1: minute elevator pitch for the president on what the GOP

954
00:55:46,880 --> 00:55:51,040
Speaker 1: Trump planned for healthcare, which you admit is expensive and problematic,

955
00:55:51,120 --> 00:55:53,520
Speaker 1: what it needs to be. He's got to do what

956
00:55:53,640 --> 00:55:56,440
Speaker 1: he's doing on drug prices for every sector of the

957
00:55:56,520 --> 00:55:59,360
Speaker 1: healthcare system. There needs to be a Trump blueprint to

958
00:55:59,480 --> 00:56:02,600
Speaker 1: lower the cause of hospital prices, a Trump blueprint to

959
00:56:02,920 --> 00:56:06,240
Speaker 1: lower the cost of physician office visits, a Trump blueprint

960
00:56:06,280 --> 00:56:09,160
Speaker 1: to lower the cost of lab tests and medical devices.

961
00:56:09,520 --> 00:56:11,960
Speaker 1: You do that, you have a real plan to attack

962
00:56:12,040 --> 00:56:15,279
Speaker 1: all the ways in which federal policy have distorted these

963
00:56:15,360 --> 00:56:17,960
Speaker 1: markets and driven up prices. You're going to have something

964
00:56:18,200 --> 00:56:21,120
Speaker 1: really strong and really persuade it to talk about. That's

965
00:56:21,160 --> 00:56:24,040
Speaker 1: a lot less disruptive than single payer, but has a

966
00:56:24,120 --> 00:56:27,960
Speaker 1: lot of the benefits purported benefits in terms of cost savings. Oh,

967
00:56:28,080 --> 00:56:30,880
Speaker 1: vic Roy, everybody. As advertised, he is the man on

968
00:56:30,960 --> 00:56:34,279
Speaker 1: this issue, President for the Foundation for Research on Equal Opportunity.

969
00:56:34,719 --> 00:56:38,239
Speaker 1: Free opt dot org is his site. Ovic, we all

970
00:56:38,320 --> 00:56:40,239
Speaker 1: know more about single payer than we did when we

971
00:56:40,280 --> 00:56:42,319
Speaker 1: started this interview. So thank you so much, my friend.

972
00:56:42,360 --> 00:56:46,480
Speaker 1: Always good to have you on the show. Thanks Buck team.

973
00:56:47,360 --> 00:56:50,279
Speaker 1: Who man, I'm gonna let the class out for a minute. Here,

974
00:56:50,320 --> 00:56:52,279
Speaker 1: catch your breath. We'll come right back at a moment.

975
00:56:52,360 --> 00:56:56,000
Speaker 1: Stay with me. Communities of color are usually much further

976
00:56:56,120 --> 00:57:02,919
Speaker 1: to the left than white liberals because racism, colonialism are

977
00:57:03,239 --> 00:57:06,319
Speaker 1: we understand through lived experience in a way that many

978
00:57:06,480 --> 00:57:11,800
Speaker 1: don't understand that these are issues that are part of

979
00:57:12,480 --> 00:57:18,920
Speaker 1: a hypercapitalist framework. You know, black folks are descendants of

980
00:57:19,040 --> 00:57:25,040
Speaker 1: slaves that were imported quote unquote by slave owners to

981
00:57:25,360 --> 00:57:29,600
Speaker 1: the United States for the explicit purpose of cultivating crops,

982
00:57:30,120 --> 00:57:36,240
Speaker 1: and it was predicated on white supremacy and racial superiority.

983
00:57:36,720 --> 00:57:39,680
Speaker 1: But we have to understand that white supremacy exists for

984
00:57:39,840 --> 00:57:44,320
Speaker 1: a reason. There's so much that we have to we

985
00:57:44,400 --> 00:57:49,560
Speaker 1: can delve into their Obviously, that's aoc Alexandra Ocasio Cortez,

986
00:57:50,880 --> 00:57:57,760
Speaker 1: who is speaking in the leftist lingo that unfortunately has

987
00:57:58,000 --> 00:58:02,360
Speaker 1: has become to dominate the faculty lounges of many college campuses,

988
00:58:02,400 --> 00:58:06,280
Speaker 1: and it is now with the rise of quote woke

989
00:58:06,480 --> 00:58:11,600
Speaker 1: journalism is now increasingly commonplace in newsrooms and for major websites.

990
00:58:11,680 --> 00:58:20,720
Speaker 1: And there are just these these very overwrought, historically problematic

991
00:58:21,040 --> 00:58:27,520
Speaker 1: or at least unfinished, selective in their discussion of capitalism, colonialism,

992
00:58:27,520 --> 00:58:31,680
Speaker 1: and many of these things. But these phrases that are

993
00:58:31,760 --> 00:58:36,800
Speaker 1: usually in place of any thoughtful discourse on these issues.

994
00:58:37,800 --> 00:58:40,560
Speaker 1: That's and by the way, even the word discourse they

995
00:58:40,640 --> 00:58:42,160
Speaker 1: use it on the left so much you can I

996
00:58:42,240 --> 00:58:44,120
Speaker 1: can tell what someone's politics are now. I mean, this

997
00:58:44,280 --> 00:58:46,920
Speaker 1: is maybe a good way of getting in and getting

998
00:58:46,920 --> 00:58:50,680
Speaker 1: into this. I can tell what someone's politics are based

999
00:58:50,760 --> 00:58:54,040
Speaker 1: on the words they use to talk about issues. I

1000
00:58:54,120 --> 00:58:57,160
Speaker 1: don't mean the words they use to describe a position.

1001
00:58:57,800 --> 00:59:00,840
Speaker 1: I mean I can just hear someone discussing something. And

1002
00:59:01,200 --> 00:59:04,520
Speaker 1: you know, for example, people who who use the phrase

1003
00:59:05,680 --> 00:59:10,200
Speaker 1: communities of color frequently are going to be on the left.

1004
00:59:10,520 --> 00:59:14,560
Speaker 1: People who will talk about a legacy of colonialism in

1005
00:59:14,640 --> 00:59:17,680
Speaker 1: the year twenty nineteen are going to be on the left.

1006
00:59:17,680 --> 00:59:19,640
Speaker 1: I mean, there's all these different things, and there's even

1007
00:59:19,720 --> 00:59:23,520
Speaker 1: more instructive, and I think specific examples in that just

1008
00:59:23,640 --> 00:59:29,840
Speaker 1: the certain words, the usage of justice without any explanation

1009
00:59:29,960 --> 00:59:33,120
Speaker 1: for what kind of justice? What does that mean? And

1010
00:59:33,280 --> 00:59:35,480
Speaker 1: this is why you'll hear me say on this show frequently,

1011
00:59:35,560 --> 00:59:37,400
Speaker 1: what do they mean by that? What does that mean?

1012
00:59:37,640 --> 00:59:42,080
Speaker 1: They use words without establishing the underlying meaning of what

1013
00:59:42,240 --> 00:59:45,880
Speaker 1: they're saying or without any clarity. Right, They're going for

1014
00:59:46,280 --> 00:59:50,200
Speaker 1: an emotional response that they know that this is this

1015
00:59:50,440 --> 00:59:54,120
Speaker 1: is setting off certain synapses in the brain, right, certain

1016
00:59:54,240 --> 00:59:59,960
Speaker 1: firing of neurons happens when people here buzzwords on the left,

1017
01:00:00,280 --> 01:00:02,560
Speaker 1: they immediately start to think, this is a friendly, this

1018
01:00:02,720 --> 01:00:04,520
Speaker 1: is a person that I agree with, and this these

1019
01:00:04,560 --> 01:00:06,760
Speaker 1: are good things. These are things that I like, And

1020
01:00:07,160 --> 01:00:09,760
Speaker 1: it's it's an essential part of understanding left wing communication.

1021
01:00:09,840 --> 01:00:15,320
Speaker 1: This is why I use these terms like, uh, you know, intersectionality,

1022
01:00:15,720 --> 01:00:18,760
Speaker 1: and we talk about people being woke, and we talk

1023
01:00:18,800 --> 01:00:22,200
Speaker 1: about dead naming, and I try to familiarize you with

1024
01:00:22,600 --> 01:00:29,320
Speaker 1: leftist jargon one to expose usually how just thoroughly intellectually

1025
01:00:29,440 --> 01:00:31,480
Speaker 1: bankrupt it all is. I mean, just these ideas and

1026
01:00:31,600 --> 01:00:35,680
Speaker 1: concepts fall apart under the weight of their own contradictions.

1027
01:00:35,800 --> 01:00:39,120
Speaker 1: That's that's one reason why, but also to understand that

1028
01:00:39,240 --> 01:00:46,080
Speaker 1: they are really creating their own, really professional language for

1029
01:00:46,600 --> 01:00:50,600
Speaker 1: mobilization and activism, and that this is now creeping into

1030
01:00:50,640 --> 01:00:54,280
Speaker 1: our pilot. And that's why I get so agitated over

1031
01:00:54,360 --> 01:00:58,080
Speaker 1: things like undocumented migrant, which is the latest. You know,

1032
01:00:58,280 --> 01:01:02,280
Speaker 1: they're just undocumented people moving who want work. That's a

1033
01:01:02,400 --> 01:01:05,000
Speaker 1: long way from illegal alien and there where there are

1034
01:01:05,000 --> 01:01:07,920
Speaker 1: a lot of steps in between. But that change in

1035
01:01:08,040 --> 01:01:12,480
Speaker 1: language is a conscious choice. Do not just let that slip.

1036
01:01:12,880 --> 01:01:15,320
Speaker 1: Do not all of a sudden decide that you know

1037
01:01:15,440 --> 01:01:18,040
Speaker 1: you're you're going to to give in to however they

1038
01:01:18,120 --> 01:01:20,240
Speaker 1: want you to speak about these things, because your word

1039
01:01:20,800 --> 01:01:25,919
Speaker 1: choice matters. Your word choice matters. And that little rant

1040
01:01:26,000 --> 01:01:30,680
Speaker 1: from o'cazio Cortez saying that communities of color are quote

1041
01:01:30,840 --> 01:01:33,040
Speaker 1: much further to the left than white liberals because of

1042
01:01:33,160 --> 01:01:38,640
Speaker 1: racism and colonialism, First of all, that's not true. I mean,

1043
01:01:39,120 --> 01:01:40,600
Speaker 1: this is where you have to get into what is

1044
01:01:41,080 --> 01:01:43,760
Speaker 1: further to left. How I don't think there. I don't

1045
01:01:43,760 --> 01:01:47,120
Speaker 1: think there is a further to the left than what

1046
01:01:47,360 --> 01:01:51,640
Speaker 1: you're hearing from some open socialists who are you know,

1047
01:01:51,720 --> 01:01:56,200
Speaker 1: white socialists and the Bernie Sanders mold. What She's really

1048
01:01:56,240 --> 01:02:00,560
Speaker 1: addressing is that there is an increasing radicalism of thought

1049
01:02:01,000 --> 01:02:05,080
Speaker 1: within some communities of color because they're being constantly told

1050
01:02:05,120 --> 01:02:11,000
Speaker 1: and this is this is combustible, This is dangerous. They

1051
01:02:11,040 --> 01:02:15,000
Speaker 1: are being told by the media, and whether it's media

1052
01:02:15,040 --> 01:02:18,360
Speaker 1: commentators who are minorities themselves or who are white liberals

1053
01:02:18,440 --> 01:02:21,040
Speaker 1: who are exploiting these narratives for their own purposes, whether

1054
01:02:21,120 --> 01:02:24,680
Speaker 1: it's ratings or just virtue signaling. But communities of color

1055
01:02:24,680 --> 01:02:28,080
Speaker 1: are increasingly being told in this country by the media

1056
01:02:28,240 --> 01:02:34,000
Speaker 1: and by politicians like AOC that white supremacy is on

1057
01:02:34,040 --> 01:02:37,440
Speaker 1: the rise, that the president is a white supremacist. Hakeem Jeffries,

1058
01:02:38,320 --> 01:02:41,320
Speaker 1: who is a member of Congress, referred to the President

1059
01:02:41,320 --> 01:02:43,880
Speaker 1: of the United States as the Grand Wizard of Pennsylvania Avenue.

1060
01:02:45,360 --> 01:02:49,400
Speaker 1: This is incredibly destructive, This is incredibly divisive in a

1061
01:02:49,520 --> 01:02:52,400
Speaker 1: way that you and I might be able to say, well,

1062
01:02:52,520 --> 01:02:56,080
Speaker 1: these are just reckless politicians and demagogues doing what they do.

1063
01:02:56,720 --> 01:02:59,320
Speaker 1: But some people, and I would argue a lot of

1064
01:02:59,360 --> 01:03:03,080
Speaker 1: people will hear this and think, wow, the other side

1065
01:03:03,320 --> 01:03:07,880
Speaker 1: on this, which is effectively in their version of events.

1066
01:03:07,920 --> 01:03:11,680
Speaker 1: In the left wing communities of color version of this narrative,

1067
01:03:11,680 --> 01:03:16,360
Speaker 1: the other side is white male Republicans. That's that's the

1068
01:03:16,520 --> 01:03:20,640
Speaker 1: other that is what is being otherised here actively. And

1069
01:03:21,200 --> 01:03:25,880
Speaker 1: you know, you see this celebratory tone at the demise

1070
01:03:26,280 --> 01:03:29,000
Speaker 1: of the white male majority of the media celebrates this

1071
01:03:29,200 --> 01:03:32,840
Speaker 1: very openly, and they encourage people to think increasingly in

1072
01:03:33,040 --> 01:03:39,200
Speaker 1: terms of racial power disparities, and they encourage non white

1073
01:03:39,360 --> 01:03:45,280
Speaker 1: minorities to use their group status, their their group identity

1074
01:03:45,760 --> 01:03:48,560
Speaker 1: as a means of achieving greater power over the other.

1075
01:03:50,320 --> 01:03:53,000
Speaker 1: This is not going to lead to good things. This

1076
01:03:53,200 --> 01:03:56,160
Speaker 1: is not going to lead to happy places. But this

1077
01:03:56,440 --> 01:04:03,800
Speaker 1: is now central to the left wing Democrat approach to

1078
01:04:03,920 --> 01:04:08,800
Speaker 1: politics to mobilize as now I'm saying it because I

1079
01:04:08,840 --> 01:04:10,960
Speaker 1: brought up before communities of color. To mobilize the minority

1080
01:04:11,000 --> 01:04:14,920
Speaker 1: population in this country as a racial and ethnic block

1081
01:04:15,480 --> 01:04:20,800
Speaker 1: against the Republican predominantly but not entirely white majority. Is

1082
01:04:21,800 --> 01:04:25,720
Speaker 1: a racializing of politics that is not going to have

1083
01:04:25,960 --> 01:04:28,120
Speaker 1: any This is not going to end well, This is

1084
01:04:28,160 --> 01:04:30,160
Speaker 1: not going to be positive for the country. This is

1085
01:04:30,200 --> 01:04:32,960
Speaker 1: something that has to be undone. This is a complete

1086
01:04:33,000 --> 01:04:37,960
Speaker 1: departure from the idea that this country is a was

1087
01:04:38,040 --> 01:04:41,120
Speaker 1: founded on an idea. Yes, it was imperfect, yes, in

1088
01:04:41,240 --> 01:04:44,800
Speaker 1: its time, there was tremendous injustice that was done slavery.

1089
01:04:45,280 --> 01:04:48,000
Speaker 1: There have been other injustices in this country's history too,

1090
01:04:48,280 --> 01:04:54,040
Speaker 1: Jim Crow segregation. But the basic idea of a country

1091
01:04:54,160 --> 01:04:57,880
Speaker 1: founded on an idea gives us at least the framework

1092
01:04:57,960 --> 01:05:03,800
Speaker 1: for not being a race segregated or racially based cast

1093
01:05:03,920 --> 01:05:08,280
Speaker 1: system like society. Right, we have that foundation in place.

1094
01:05:09,040 --> 01:05:14,160
Speaker 1: To constantly mobilize non white minorities for political and cultural

1095
01:05:14,240 --> 01:05:21,240
Speaker 1: purposes against the other, the white male conservative majority is

1096
01:05:21,320 --> 01:05:25,200
Speaker 1: to create a friction that I would argue undermines the

1097
01:05:25,400 --> 01:05:30,040
Speaker 1: most important shared principles and values of this country, which

1098
01:05:30,120 --> 01:05:32,280
Speaker 1: is that we are not supposed we are not defined

1099
01:05:32,360 --> 01:05:39,400
Speaker 1: by or dictated by our skin color or by our ethnicity.

1100
01:05:39,520 --> 01:05:41,960
Speaker 1: We actually have free will, free choice, and we are

1101
01:05:42,040 --> 01:05:43,800
Speaker 1: all equal in the law and equal in the eyes

1102
01:05:43,840 --> 01:05:48,040
Speaker 1: of God. And that people should choose their destinies, their beliefs,

1103
01:05:48,080 --> 01:05:51,360
Speaker 1: their futures freely, not based on what they have been

1104
01:05:51,400 --> 01:05:56,440
Speaker 1: told by others. Ocasio Cortez talking about a hyper capitalist framework.

1105
01:05:56,840 --> 01:05:59,920
Speaker 1: These are big words used by people who don't understand

1106
01:06:00,000 --> 01:06:02,800
Speaker 1: and big ideas. You're going to see a lot more

1107
01:06:02,880 --> 01:06:06,600
Speaker 1: of that on the left in this Democrat primary. These

1108
01:06:06,640 --> 01:06:09,200
Speaker 1: are people who pick and choose different aspects of history

1109
01:06:09,240 --> 01:06:13,400
Speaker 1: without understanding the fuller context. Because generally on the left

1110
01:06:13,520 --> 01:06:17,600
Speaker 1: you have some of the biggest demagogues on politics, who

1111
01:06:17,640 --> 01:06:19,960
Speaker 1: are held up as being the leading lights of the

1112
01:06:20,160 --> 01:06:25,800
Speaker 1: progressive wing of the Democratic Party are not particularly well

1113
01:06:25,880 --> 01:06:29,720
Speaker 1: read and not insightful on any aspects of American life.

1114
01:06:29,760 --> 01:06:32,640
Speaker 1: They just know how to agitate. They know how to

1115
01:06:32,800 --> 01:06:38,120
Speaker 1: push buttons. They understand how powerful envy is when mobilized.

1116
01:06:38,160 --> 01:06:43,560
Speaker 1: They understand how powerful class warfare can be in the

1117
01:06:43,680 --> 01:06:46,120
Speaker 1: hands of somebody who does not mind what they are

1118
01:06:46,160 --> 01:06:51,520
Speaker 1: tearing down or burning down in the process. Take AOC seriously,

1119
01:06:52,160 --> 01:06:56,640
Speaker 1: because I assure you, despite her ignorance, her inability to

1120
01:06:56,760 --> 01:07:00,840
Speaker 1: grasp very important, very basic concepts of governance, the left

1121
01:07:00,880 --> 01:07:04,640
Speaker 1: will take her seriously and enough people will emotionally attach

1122
01:07:04,720 --> 01:07:09,640
Speaker 1: to her ideas that the falsehood that is baked into

1123
01:07:09,920 --> 01:07:13,439
Speaker 1: into much, if not all, of it won't matter. Enough

1124
01:07:15,000 --> 01:07:20,360
Speaker 1: got more common stay with me. Can America work productively

1125
01:07:20,640 --> 01:07:26,960
Speaker 1: towards adjust and lasting peace between Israelis and Palestinians, in

1126
01:07:27,080 --> 01:07:31,600
Speaker 1: your opinion, by having an equal approach to dealing with both.

1127
01:07:32,360 --> 01:07:34,680
Speaker 1: Most of the things that have always been aggravating to

1128
01:07:34,800 --> 01:07:38,280
Speaker 1: me is that we have had a policy that makes

1129
01:07:38,360 --> 01:07:41,720
Speaker 1: one superior to the other, and we mask it with

1130
01:07:41,800 --> 01:07:46,120
Speaker 1: a conversation that's about justice and two state solution. When

1131
01:07:46,200 --> 01:07:52,120
Speaker 1: you have policies that clearly prioritize one over the other,

1132
01:07:52,560 --> 01:07:56,960
Speaker 1: such a us, I mean, just our relationship really with

1133
01:07:57,720 --> 01:08:01,240
Speaker 1: this Raeli government and this israelis eate and so when

1134
01:08:01,360 --> 01:08:06,880
Speaker 1: I see is right, you'll institute um law that that

1135
01:08:07,080 --> 01:08:09,880
Speaker 1: recognizes it as a as a as a Jewish state

1136
01:08:10,320 --> 01:08:14,960
Speaker 1: and does not recognize um the other religions that are

1137
01:08:15,120 --> 01:08:17,400
Speaker 1: that are living in it, and we still uphold it

1138
01:08:17,479 --> 01:08:20,920
Speaker 1: as a democracy in the Middle East. I almost chuckle

1139
01:08:21,080 --> 01:08:25,320
Speaker 1: because I know that if you know we we we

1140
01:08:25,560 --> 01:08:29,760
Speaker 1: say we see that in any other society, we would

1141
01:08:30,120 --> 01:08:32,240
Speaker 1: criticize it, we would call it out. We do that

1142
01:08:32,360 --> 01:08:35,400
Speaker 1: to Iran, We do that to any other place that

1143
01:08:35,560 --> 01:08:42,240
Speaker 1: sort of upholds its religion. So that is your You're

1144
01:08:42,400 --> 01:08:48,280
Speaker 1: you're new and exciting to the left. Congresswoman from Minnesota,

1145
01:08:48,840 --> 01:08:51,960
Speaker 1: Ilhan Omar, who's all who's made quite a splash in

1146
01:08:52,040 --> 01:08:56,760
Speaker 1: a very short short period of time with her not

1147
01:08:56,960 --> 01:09:02,080
Speaker 1: so subtle implied homophobia and now with her commentary about

1148
01:09:02,120 --> 01:09:03,800
Speaker 1: israel I mean, this is somebody who clearly has a

1149
01:09:03,880 --> 01:09:09,040
Speaker 1: real problem with Israel, and that's for a lot of

1150
01:09:09,120 --> 01:09:12,560
Speaker 1: folks starts to get pretty close to sounding like anti semitism,

1151
01:09:12,600 --> 01:09:14,080
Speaker 1: if they're not already there. Some of you're like, no,

1152
01:09:14,160 --> 01:09:18,080
Speaker 1: Bucket is just anti semitism. But notice the way that

1153
01:09:18,160 --> 01:09:21,800
Speaker 1: she discusses this, and you know, look there's the foreign

1154
01:09:21,840 --> 01:09:23,759
Speaker 1: policies oude of this, which maybe is not as interesting

1155
01:09:23,800 --> 01:09:26,960
Speaker 1: to you, interesting to you, but the reason that the

1156
01:09:27,160 --> 01:09:32,160
Speaker 1: left does not like Israel there are many reasons, right,

1157
01:09:32,200 --> 01:09:34,680
Speaker 1: but the reasons why there is this and keep it.

1158
01:09:34,800 --> 01:09:36,560
Speaker 1: There are Democrats who are very proist. Well, I know

1159
01:09:36,640 --> 01:09:38,519
Speaker 1: that I'm really talking about the left here. This is

1160
01:09:38,560 --> 01:09:41,519
Speaker 1: where the separation of the apparatus of the Democratic Party

1161
01:09:41,840 --> 01:09:46,800
Speaker 1: and the ideological hard left there is a thing there.

1162
01:09:46,920 --> 01:09:51,840
Speaker 1: You know, you do have Democrats who are members of Congress,

1163
01:09:52,280 --> 01:09:55,439
Speaker 1: for example, who are at least outwardly very pro Israel,

1164
01:09:56,280 --> 01:09:58,200
Speaker 1: even though they're pretty leftists on a lot of things.

1165
01:09:58,600 --> 01:10:01,160
Speaker 1: But the hard left of the Democrat Party, the kind

1166
01:10:01,200 --> 01:10:04,839
Speaker 1: of big progress move on Dot org types, the ilhan

1167
01:10:04,920 --> 01:10:09,080
Speaker 1: omars of the party are anti Israel because to them,

1168
01:10:10,120 --> 01:10:16,559
Speaker 1: in this ideology of post colonialism, intersectionality, and social justice,

1169
01:10:16,640 --> 01:10:20,400
Speaker 1: these different concepts that the left holds as as really

1170
01:10:20,800 --> 01:10:25,559
Speaker 1: the primary organizing narratives for our day to day lives.

1171
01:10:26,040 --> 01:10:29,559
Speaker 1: Israel is like a violator on all these different fronts.

1172
01:10:29,800 --> 01:10:33,200
Speaker 1: In their minds, Israel is a colonial outpost in the

1173
01:10:33,240 --> 01:10:36,720
Speaker 1: Middle East. It is white, even though, of course, when

1174
01:10:36,760 --> 01:10:40,840
Speaker 1: you talk about white and oppression that white Jewish people

1175
01:10:41,000 --> 01:10:42,920
Speaker 1: in Israel, I think would have a lot of a

1176
01:10:43,000 --> 01:10:46,240
Speaker 1: lot of things to say about a history of oppression

1177
01:10:46,320 --> 01:10:48,160
Speaker 1: and what that has been like and what that has

1178
01:10:48,200 --> 01:10:53,200
Speaker 1: meant globally and for a few millennia. But you know,

1179
01:10:53,760 --> 01:10:58,880
Speaker 1: the left just sees it in this very this very straightforward,

1180
01:10:58,920 --> 01:11:05,800
Speaker 1: and I would argue, very wrong headed and completely decontextualized context,

1181
01:11:06,160 --> 01:11:10,400
Speaker 1: or rather decontextualized fashion, decontextualized context. Buck, come on, let's

1182
01:11:10,439 --> 01:11:14,840
Speaker 1: get it together. Uh. Where they're they're white, they're colonial

1183
01:11:15,000 --> 01:11:19,040
Speaker 1: their first world, they're pro American their democracy. Therefore Israel's

1184
01:11:19,080 --> 01:11:23,000
Speaker 1: a problem. Therefore it's oppressive. And they also view Islam,

1185
01:11:23,040 --> 01:11:24,840
Speaker 1: even though it's the second largest religion as the world,

1186
01:11:24,920 --> 01:11:28,640
Speaker 1: as a non white and oppressed religion. And really, you know,

1187
01:11:28,760 --> 01:11:30,680
Speaker 1: you look at the way she talks about Israel and

1188
01:11:30,840 --> 01:11:33,639
Speaker 1: that it's it's character of a Jewish state she finds

1189
01:11:33,680 --> 01:11:37,439
Speaker 1: inherently problematic. Meanwhile, think of all this, Think of all

1190
01:11:37,479 --> 01:11:39,640
Speaker 1: the states around the world, all the countries that are

1191
01:11:40,000 --> 01:11:43,920
Speaker 1: that are Muslim, and and there's no no one raises

1192
01:11:43,960 --> 01:11:47,080
Speaker 1: an issue with the idea of the Islamic Republic of

1193
01:11:47,640 --> 01:11:49,720
Speaker 1: and not just Iran. She goes to Iran, which is

1194
01:11:49,800 --> 01:11:52,840
Speaker 1: particularly crazy, But all these other countries are Islamic, and

1195
01:11:52,920 --> 01:11:55,120
Speaker 1: no one suggesting to them that they have to go

1196
01:11:55,240 --> 01:11:59,840
Speaker 1: through mass immigration, that they have to have you know,

1197
01:12:00,120 --> 01:12:04,320
Speaker 1: Christianity put on the same footing in their national constitution

1198
01:12:04,479 --> 01:12:06,640
Speaker 1: or whatever as as as Islam is. I mean, no

1199
01:12:06,720 --> 01:12:11,320
Speaker 1: one even discusses that somehow it's always acceptable for Islam

1200
01:12:11,439 --> 01:12:16,600
Speaker 1: to be the only faith in a nation state. And

1201
01:12:16,760 --> 01:12:20,000
Speaker 1: Islam is held to this very different standard, this much

1202
01:12:20,120 --> 01:12:24,880
Speaker 1: lower standard than in our country Christianity and Judaism are

1203
01:12:25,720 --> 01:12:29,120
Speaker 1: in terms of its responsibility for the acts of its adherents.

1204
01:12:29,200 --> 01:12:33,160
Speaker 1: And and you hear ilhan Omar talking about this, and

1205
01:12:33,240 --> 01:12:36,880
Speaker 1: you just know that this is what she's saying in

1206
01:12:36,960 --> 01:12:39,000
Speaker 1: an interview. I really want to know what she says

1207
01:12:39,120 --> 01:12:42,960
Speaker 1: when the cameras are not rolling. I've heard I've had

1208
01:12:43,080 --> 01:12:47,800
Speaker 1: many Muslim, including Muslim leftist friends over over the years,

1209
01:12:47,840 --> 01:12:51,200
Speaker 1: and I've heard what they say about Israel when they're

1210
01:12:51,240 --> 01:12:53,960
Speaker 1: not when they think that they're around people that aren't

1211
01:12:53,960 --> 01:12:55,880
Speaker 1: going to repeat it. I mean, some of them don't

1212
01:12:55,920 --> 01:12:58,000
Speaker 1: necessarily know my politics that they would now, but many

1213
01:12:58,080 --> 01:13:00,160
Speaker 1: years ago when I was CIA, they wouldn't have known own.

1214
01:13:01,080 --> 01:13:03,960
Speaker 1: And the way that they talk about Israel, it's clear

1215
01:13:04,080 --> 01:13:06,920
Speaker 1: that it's not just they don't like Israeli policy. They

1216
01:13:06,960 --> 01:13:09,720
Speaker 1: don't like Israel. And with a lot of Muslims and

1217
01:13:09,760 --> 01:13:11,880
Speaker 1: a lot of the Muslim world, here's the truth. It's

1218
01:13:11,920 --> 01:13:13,720
Speaker 1: not just that they don't like Israeli policy or the

1219
01:13:13,760 --> 01:13:15,960
Speaker 1: state of Israel's a concept. It's that they don't like Jews.

1220
01:13:16,240 --> 01:13:20,800
Speaker 1: It's at their anti Semites. Anti Semitism is rampant in

1221
01:13:20,880 --> 01:13:25,240
Speaker 1: the Muslim world, and with some of the importation into

1222
01:13:25,320 --> 01:13:30,320
Speaker 1: this country of different beliefs and people of backgrounds where

1223
01:13:30,320 --> 01:13:33,960
Speaker 1: it's much more commonplace to be anti Semitic, we are seeing,

1224
01:13:34,720 --> 01:13:38,120
Speaker 1: I believe, a growing problem here on the left of

1225
01:13:39,080 --> 01:13:44,000
Speaker 1: real nasty, leftist anti semitism that the media is going

1226
01:13:44,080 --> 01:13:47,360
Speaker 1: to make excuses for because it crosses over with their

1227
01:13:47,760 --> 01:13:52,120
Speaker 1: oppression rhetoric about intersectionality. And you know, women from the

1228
01:13:52,200 --> 01:13:54,640
Speaker 1: Islamic world, like ilhan Omar and all the rest of it,

1229
01:13:54,680 --> 01:13:58,000
Speaker 1: they're gonna make excuses for leftist anti semitism. Mark my words,

1230

1249
01:15:04,400 --> 01:15:08,280
Speaker 1: There is an increase of those attempting to apply for asylum,

1250
01:15:08,520 --> 01:15:12,960
Speaker 1: but they're handing themselves over to the authorities too. Statistically,

1251
01:15:13,760 --> 01:15:16,639
Speaker 1: immigrants are less likely to commit a crime than those

1252
01:15:16,720 --> 01:15:20,840
Speaker 1: of us that were born in the United States. So

1253
01:15:21,400 --> 01:15:28,519
Speaker 1: many lies, so little time. That's Democrat Congressman Gutierrez talking

1254
01:15:28,560 --> 01:15:33,280
Speaker 1: about immigrants, legal immigration. Let me take a chainsaw to

1255
01:15:33,520 --> 01:15:39,360
Speaker 1: this edifice of nonsense, now, shall we. It's just they

1256
01:15:39,439 --> 01:15:44,080
Speaker 1: just won't stop. They will not stop. This idea that

1257
01:15:44,560 --> 01:15:49,480
Speaker 1: crossings are down, therefore there is not a problem is nonsense.

1258
01:15:50,400 --> 01:15:52,720
Speaker 1: This would be like saying, okay, let's look at the

1259
01:15:52,760 --> 01:15:55,800
Speaker 1: opioid crisis. If the opioid crisis had been going on

1260
01:15:56,160 --> 01:16:02,360
Speaker 1: for thirty years and you went from seventy thousand dead

1261
01:16:02,479 --> 01:16:05,320
Speaker 1: a year to let's say it's a huge drop off

1262
01:16:05,640 --> 01:16:08,719
Speaker 1: thirty five thousand dead a year, but you've already racked

1263
01:16:08,840 --> 01:16:13,320
Speaker 1: up a body count of how many deaths over that

1264
01:16:13,439 --> 01:16:15,880
Speaker 1: period of time. You've already lost how many loved ones,

1265
01:16:15,920 --> 01:16:19,000
Speaker 1: how many brothers and sisters, mothers and fathers, friends, family.

1266
01:16:20,280 --> 01:16:23,920
Speaker 1: That's a crisis and a continuing crisis. So I mean

1267
01:16:24,000 --> 01:16:27,040
Speaker 1: to say that because it's not the worst that it

1268
01:16:27,120 --> 01:16:30,920
Speaker 1: has ever been is to ignore the fact that just

1269
01:16:31,040 --> 01:16:33,360
Speaker 1: because something can be worse does not mean it is

1270
01:16:33,840 --> 01:16:37,559
Speaker 1: not a problem today. I hope my logic is I've

1271
01:16:37,600 --> 01:16:40,479
Speaker 1: explained that one with enough clarity here on the air.

1272
01:16:41,840 --> 01:16:44,320
Speaker 1: We already have, and I was happy to see Tucker

1273
01:16:44,360 --> 01:16:47,960
Speaker 1: Carlson last night say this, twenty million illegals in the country.

1274
01:16:48,000 --> 01:16:50,120
Speaker 1: It's not eleven million. That's a joke. It's at least

1275
01:16:50,160 --> 01:16:52,679
Speaker 1: twenty million. And that's not me just picking the number

1276
01:16:52,680 --> 01:16:57,760
Speaker 1: out of thin air. There are multiple math PhDs who've

1277
01:16:57,760 --> 01:17:01,360
Speaker 1: looked at the available hard data for illegal crossings and

1278
01:17:01,520 --> 01:17:05,920
Speaker 1: deportations over the last decade, and the idea that we

1279
01:17:06,040 --> 01:17:10,920
Speaker 1: are somehow not up by at least double what they're

1280
01:17:10,960 --> 01:17:14,760
Speaker 1: telling us is crazy. I mean, this is you look

1281
01:17:14,800 --> 01:17:17,840
Speaker 1: back in twenty ten, eleven million illegals. In two thousand

1282
01:17:17,880 --> 01:17:21,960
Speaker 1: and five, eleven million illegals. Last year eleven million illegals. No,

1283
01:17:23,560 --> 01:17:27,720
Speaker 1: I go speak to border patrol. You have fifty thousand

1284
01:17:28,000 --> 01:17:31,320
Speaker 1: people at a time now in a month who are

1285
01:17:31,360 --> 01:17:34,280
Speaker 1: showing up at the border. I mean thirty thousand family units.

1286
01:17:35,200 --> 01:17:37,840
Speaker 1: That's at least two individuals or families, not one. We

1287
01:17:37,880 --> 01:17:39,479
Speaker 1: haven't yet gotten to the point yet where people are

1288
01:17:39,520 --> 01:17:44,920
Speaker 1: identifying as as a family. So you know, this is

1289
01:17:45,000 --> 01:17:48,120
Speaker 1: just this is we are lied to and lied to

1290
01:17:48,560 --> 01:17:52,320
Speaker 1: and lied to so many times on this issue, and

1291
01:17:52,800 --> 01:17:56,000
Speaker 1: I think that the frustration, it look, it boils over

1292
01:17:56,120 --> 01:17:58,920
Speaker 1: when I'm talking about this, It obviously comes out in

1293
01:17:59,479 --> 01:18:03,599
Speaker 1: my I think it's why the White House today from

1294
01:18:03,640 --> 01:18:06,519
Speaker 1: their official Twitter account, as well as the President from

1295
01:18:06,600 --> 01:18:10,439
Speaker 1: his potus Twitter account, retweeted my article on the Hill

1296
01:18:10,479 --> 01:18:13,720
Speaker 1: from earlier this week on all of the scams that

1297
01:18:13,840 --> 01:18:17,960
Speaker 1: are being run. So Gudierres is being disingenuous with his

1298
01:18:18,080 --> 01:18:21,720
Speaker 1: Oh the numbers are down, well, they're down from completely

1299
01:18:21,840 --> 01:18:27,920
Speaker 1: unsustainable illegal invasion of the nineties and the early two

1300
01:18:28,000 --> 01:18:30,479
Speaker 1: and the early two thousands. Okay, yeah, they're down from that,

1301
01:18:30,600 --> 01:18:33,840
Speaker 1: but they're still unacceptably high. And there's already such a

1302
01:18:34,040 --> 01:18:38,280
Speaker 1: huge illegal population within the country that everyone who's showing

1303
01:18:38,400 --> 01:18:42,920
Speaker 1: up now is joining the ranks of an already unsustainable

1304
01:18:43,080 --> 01:18:48,120
Speaker 1: illegal issue. You know, this is like saying if you're

1305
01:18:48,600 --> 01:18:51,479
Speaker 1: if you're a million dollars in debt and you were

1306
01:18:51,600 --> 01:18:54,840
Speaker 1: spending fifty thousand dollars a month beyond your means, and

1307
01:18:55,000 --> 01:18:57,920
Speaker 1: now you're only spending twenty five thousand dollars a month

1308
01:18:57,960 --> 01:18:59,960
Speaker 1: beyond your means. And you say, well, bucket's no big problem.

1309
01:19:00,000 --> 01:19:01,880
Speaker 1: Look at how look at how far down it is. Yeah,

1310
01:19:01,880 --> 01:19:03,719
Speaker 1: but you already have a debt of a million dollars

1311
01:19:03,800 --> 01:19:07,200
Speaker 1: and you're still adding to it. We have twenty million illegals,

1312
01:19:07,280 --> 01:19:10,559
Speaker 1: and they're still adding to the number in large numbers,

1313
01:19:10,640 --> 01:19:12,680
Speaker 1: and we don't even know what the real number is.

1314
01:19:14,040 --> 01:19:17,960
Speaker 1: Half a million visa overstays a year, thirty thousand family

1315
01:19:18,080 --> 01:19:20,400
Speaker 1: units a month showing up at the southern border. That

1316
01:19:20,479 --> 01:19:25,040
Speaker 1: doesn't include unaccompanied minors, and it doesn't include illegal single

1317
01:19:25,120 --> 01:19:31,519
Speaker 1: adult male crossers. Goodierras is just full of it. He's

1318
01:19:31,560 --> 01:19:33,200
Speaker 1: just full of it. He either does. He's either just

1319
01:19:33,360 --> 01:19:38,000
Speaker 1: ignorant or he doesn't care. It's probably both. This notion

1320
01:19:38,080 --> 01:19:40,680
Speaker 1: that they're showing up to claim asylum. That's right. They

1321
01:19:40,760 --> 01:19:43,000
Speaker 1: claim asylum so they get into the interior of the

1322
01:19:43,160 --> 01:19:46,400
Speaker 1: US and then they know that there will be no enforcement.

1323
01:19:48,240 --> 01:19:51,519
Speaker 1: Less than one percent of those who enter the United

1324
01:19:51,560 --> 01:19:57,840
Speaker 1: States claiming asylum are expelled from the country through deportation,

1325
01:19:58,840 --> 01:20:02,400
Speaker 1: but ninet scent of those who claim asylum, do not

1326
01:20:02,760 --> 01:20:05,680
Speaker 1: qualify for it. So somebody explain those numbers to me.

1327
01:20:06,160 --> 01:20:10,760
Speaker 1: This is a massive backdoor in the United States, and

1328
01:20:10,960 --> 01:20:15,559
Speaker 1: any politician who tells you otherwise is a liar. A liar.

1329
01:20:16,600 --> 01:20:22,800
Speaker 1: Gutierrez is lying to you about this and then on

1330
01:20:22,880 --> 01:20:25,439
Speaker 1: this issue. Finally, of by the way, it was pretty

1331
01:20:25,439 --> 01:20:29,200
Speaker 1: cool to get the to have the potus account, which

1332
01:20:29,240 --> 01:20:33,320
Speaker 1: has twenty five million followers, tweet out an article that

1333
01:20:33,400 --> 01:20:35,800
Speaker 1: I am the author of. That was nice. I liked

1334
01:20:35,880 --> 01:20:40,040
Speaker 1: that high five. You haven't read it, you gotta check

1335
01:20:40,080 --> 01:20:41,479
Speaker 1: out my stuff on the Hill dot com on the

1336
01:20:41,560 --> 01:20:45,720
Speaker 1: written side the editorial page there, it's the crisis of

1337
01:20:45,760 --> 01:20:49,280
Speaker 1: the border is real and getting worse. And I just

1338
01:20:49,400 --> 01:20:52,479
Speaker 1: make this case to you based on the numbers, based

1339
01:20:52,520 --> 01:20:54,400
Speaker 1: on the schemes and the fraud, and based on now

1340
01:20:54,479 --> 01:20:58,960
Speaker 1: the increasing medical concerns and costs on the system of

1341
01:20:59,040 --> 01:21:03,639
Speaker 1: all of this. So you've got surging numbers fraud, fraud,

1342
01:21:03,720 --> 01:21:07,120
Speaker 1: fraud and lies everywhere from the migrants who are coming in,

1343
01:21:07,760 --> 01:21:11,120
Speaker 1: and medical costs that are about to get really, really heavy.

1344
01:21:12,080 --> 01:21:14,799
Speaker 1: You know. The smartest thing, I could now walk somebody

1345
01:21:14,920 --> 01:21:18,080
Speaker 1: through what the loopholes are in our immigration system, and

1346
01:21:18,560 --> 01:21:21,360
Speaker 1: they wouldn't be breaking the law necessarily. They're not breaking

1347
01:21:21,400 --> 01:21:23,240
Speaker 1: the law till they don't show up for their immigration hearing.

1348
01:21:23,320 --> 01:21:26,839
Speaker 1: I could walk somebody through that and you know, essentially

1349
01:21:26,880 --> 01:21:28,640
Speaker 1: guarantee that they'll get entry in the United States and

1350
01:21:28,680 --> 01:21:31,520
Speaker 1: don't have to worry about having to leave. That's unacceptable,

1351
01:21:32,320 --> 01:21:38,120
Speaker 1: completely unacceptable. But that's where we are. That's where the

1352
01:21:38,479 --> 01:21:40,920
Speaker 1: status quo has that's what the status quo has become.

1353
01:21:41,800 --> 01:21:43,160
Speaker 1: And then this thing of a good era is about

1354
01:21:43,160 --> 01:21:45,080
Speaker 1: how immigrants are less likely to commit a crime than

1355
01:21:45,120 --> 01:21:49,519
Speaker 1: those of us who are born in the US. That's

1356
01:21:49,560 --> 01:21:53,120
Speaker 1: just not true. It's only true if you make it

1357
01:21:53,120 --> 01:21:55,759
Speaker 1: about immigrants who are supposed to go through a screening process.

1358
01:21:56,000 --> 01:21:58,479
Speaker 1: When you add illegal immigrants into the equation, it is

1359
01:21:58,560 --> 01:22:00,840
Speaker 1: not true. And actually, I don't think that they should

1360
01:22:00,840 --> 01:22:05,040
Speaker 1: be conflating those two populations at all, because the issue

1361
01:22:05,160 --> 01:22:08,760
Speaker 1: is not with legal immigrants. Legal immigrants are welcome. Legal

1362
01:22:08,800 --> 01:22:11,599
Speaker 1: immigrants are Americans. They listen to this show, God bless

1363
01:22:11,600 --> 01:22:14,120
Speaker 1: you and thank you for giving me your time. Illegal

1364
01:22:14,160 --> 01:22:17,519
Speaker 1: immigrants are breaking the law, and they're doing so in

1365
01:22:17,800 --> 01:22:22,840
Speaker 1: a systematic fashion, with the assistance of the Democratic Party

1366
01:22:22,920 --> 01:22:25,920
Speaker 1: and a left wing media that is all is open

1367
01:22:26,000 --> 01:22:30,559
Speaker 1: borders in all but name. That's what's happening. And that's

1368
01:22:30,560 --> 01:22:33,439
Speaker 1: why I get frustrated when people say things like immigrants

1369
01:22:33,439 --> 01:22:34,960
Speaker 1: are less likely to commit crimes and those of us

1370
01:22:34,960 --> 01:22:40,320
Speaker 1: who are born in the US, that's dodging the issue.

1371
01:22:40,400 --> 01:22:44,040
Speaker 1: Are illegal immigrants apart from the crime of crossing in

1372
01:22:44,080 --> 01:22:46,600
Speaker 1: the country and the document fraud and the lying to

1373
01:22:46,680 --> 01:22:51,200
Speaker 1: federal officers and the you know, social security fraud and

1374
01:22:51,320 --> 01:22:53,760
Speaker 1: the welfare fraud, all those things that also happen in

1375
01:22:53,840 --> 01:22:56,880
Speaker 1: large numbers in illegal immigrant communities. They pretend like it doesn't,

1376
01:22:56,880 --> 01:22:59,920
Speaker 1: but it does. Apart from all of those violations of law,

1377
01:23:00,160 --> 01:23:06,080
Speaker 1: how many are actually in gangs' sexually assaulting people, murdering people,

1378
01:23:06,120 --> 01:23:07,960
Speaker 1: whether they're part of the I MS thirteen or some

1379
01:23:08,080 --> 01:23:12,120
Speaker 1: other gang, you know. That's that's that's the statistic that

1380
01:23:12,160 --> 01:23:15,920
Speaker 1: I would like to see. And it's so interesting, isn't

1381
01:23:15,920 --> 01:23:19,800
Speaker 1: it that the Democrat the knee jerk reaction from the

1382
01:23:19,880 --> 01:23:23,800
Speaker 1: Democrats is always that illegals are better than Americans. This

1383
01:23:24,000 --> 01:23:26,880
Speaker 1: is a mantra, This is a recurring theme in the

1384
01:23:26,960 --> 01:23:32,120
Speaker 1: Democrat party that illegals are better than the Americans of

1385
01:23:32,320 --> 01:23:35,800
Speaker 1: all ethnicities and backgrounds. Right, we have a quite a

1386
01:23:35,920 --> 01:23:40,559
Speaker 1: diverse population in America, and they're saying illegals who are

1387
01:23:40,640 --> 01:23:45,360
Speaker 1: predominantly from not entirely Mexico and Central America are better

1388
01:23:45,439 --> 01:23:49,439
Speaker 1: than Americans. It just seems a strange position to take

1389
01:23:49,840 --> 01:23:55,200
Speaker 1: for an American political party, but they understand that they

1390
01:23:55,200 --> 01:23:57,560
Speaker 1: will be the only political party with any power in

1391
01:23:57,640 --> 01:24:00,760
Speaker 1: this country if this continues. That's why they are all

1392
01:24:01,040 --> 01:24:04,600
Speaker 1: in on illegal immigration. And I keep saying this, and

1393
01:24:04,840 --> 01:24:08,640
Speaker 1: I hope somebody with the ability to get big Democrats

1394
01:24:08,720 --> 01:24:13,800
Speaker 1: like big Democrats. Big Democrats won't you know, they won't

1395
01:24:13,960 --> 01:24:15,720
Speaker 1: come on and debate me or argue with me. I mean,

1396
01:24:15,800 --> 01:24:17,800
Speaker 1: it's just that it's I'm too risky, right, what's the

1397
01:24:17,920 --> 01:24:21,400
Speaker 1: upside versus The downside is they get intellectually fileted like

1398
01:24:21,479 --> 01:24:26,240
Speaker 1: a fish. The upside for them is pretty minimal. So

1399
01:24:26,439 --> 01:24:28,000
Speaker 1: I can't get them. But somebody who is in a

1400
01:24:28,040 --> 01:24:30,960
Speaker 1: position to get a Democrat on the hot seat, you know,

1401
01:24:31,240 --> 01:24:33,960
Speaker 1: get Nancy Pelosi or get they just have to ask

1402
01:24:34,000 --> 01:24:40,120
Speaker 1: them to answer this question, why shouldn't Democrats before illegal immigration?

1403
01:24:40,400 --> 01:24:42,479
Speaker 1: They'll say, oh, because we want people to respect our laws.

1404
01:24:42,520 --> 01:24:45,400
Speaker 1: No no, no, no, no, that's not enough, because they're

1405
01:24:45,439 --> 01:24:50,320
Speaker 1: not respecting our laws. Why shouldn't illegal immigrants just come

1406
01:24:50,360 --> 01:24:52,720
Speaker 1: into the country as they please, or as they call them,

1407
01:24:52,840 --> 01:24:57,640
Speaker 1: undocumented immigrants. Why shouldn't they I can give you a

1408
01:24:57,680 --> 01:25:01,160
Speaker 1: whole bunch of reasons. Sovereignty, rule of law, all political cohesion,

1409
01:25:01,280 --> 01:25:04,559
Speaker 1: strain on resources, cultural assimilation. I'll go down the whole list.

1410
01:25:05,960 --> 01:25:10,960
Speaker 1: Democrats reject all of that, or from Brocall strombling about

1411
01:25:11,040 --> 01:25:14,680
Speaker 1: lauring Speirger English or bro call, there's not going to

1412
01:25:14,720 --> 01:25:18,880
Speaker 1: be a welcome of a country clawbone anymore. That's right.

1413
01:25:19,560 --> 01:25:22,439
Speaker 1: Brokaw got his hand caught in a little mouse trap.

1414
01:25:23,280 --> 01:25:26,080
Speaker 1: He said a little something naughty because he said you

1415
01:25:26,080 --> 01:25:29,719
Speaker 1: should learn English. You know he's He's stubbed his toe

1416
01:25:29,920 --> 01:25:34,320
Speaker 1: big time with that one, didn't he ouch? Not supposed,

1417
01:25:34,439 --> 01:25:36,760
Speaker 1: not supposed to tell people that, not supposed to say

1418
01:25:37,479 --> 01:25:41,479
Speaker 1: that assimilation means learning English. If assimilation does not mean

1419
01:25:41,600 --> 01:25:45,400
Speaker 1: learning English, what does assimilation mean? Does any anybody want

1420
01:25:45,439 --> 01:25:47,840
Speaker 1: to try that? I do object when I voted in

1421
01:25:47,880 --> 01:25:51,040
Speaker 1: New York City to the ballot being in five or

1422
01:25:51,160 --> 01:25:54,720
Speaker 1: six languages. I do object to that. I think that's

1423
01:25:54,720 --> 01:25:58,120
Speaker 1: a problem. Language is not about skin color, it's not

1424
01:25:58,160 --> 01:26:03,400
Speaker 1: about ethnicity. It's about national cohesion. And communication and shared

1425
01:26:03,479 --> 01:26:08,360
Speaker 1: culture and values. Those things all matter Democrats, We'll just

1426
01:26:08,439 --> 01:26:11,400
Speaker 1: throw that all aside. They'll throw any of this stuff aside,

1427
01:26:11,439 --> 01:26:15,720
Speaker 1: because ultimately, all that really matters to them is this relentless,

1428
01:26:16,840 --> 01:26:21,519
Speaker 1: endless pursuit of power and illegally. They've switched. They've switched

1429
01:26:21,560 --> 01:26:24,040
Speaker 1: the script on illegal immigration. They used to pretend that

1430
01:26:24,520 --> 01:26:26,840
Speaker 1: they were the protectors of the working class from illegal

1431
01:26:26,880 --> 01:26:29,720
Speaker 1: immigrant competition for jobs. That's not where their bread is

1432
01:26:29,720 --> 01:26:35,040
Speaker 1: buttered anymore. Now they are all about illegal aliens. I've

1433

1453
01:27:38,520 --> 01:27:41,719
Speaker 1: we are as a nation. It's an old way of thinking.

1454
01:27:42,120 --> 01:27:44,040
Speaker 1: I hate the way. I think it's even more. I

1455
01:27:44,160 --> 01:27:46,360
Speaker 1: think it's wasteball. How are we a country that puts

1456
01:27:46,400 --> 01:27:49,320
Speaker 1: a wall between ourselves and an allied nation? A wall

1457
01:27:49,439 --> 01:27:53,680
Speaker 1: is an immoral symbol for our country. I mean, this

1458
01:27:53,840 --> 01:27:57,559
Speaker 1: is just stupidity. I have very little patients these days

1459
01:27:57,680 --> 01:28:00,960
Speaker 1: for politicians who go on TV and say that a

1460
01:28:01,040 --> 01:28:03,559
Speaker 1: wall is an immorality, that a wall won't work. All

1461
01:28:03,640 --> 01:28:08,240
Speaker 1: these different all these different things that they they bring

1462
01:28:08,320 --> 01:28:14,639
Speaker 1: together and they say they bleat these talking points. Four

1463
01:28:14,760 --> 01:28:17,559
Speaker 1: legs good, two legs bad. Some of people will catch

1464
01:28:17,640 --> 01:28:20,240
Speaker 1: that references our that's our random reference for today. Let's

1465
01:28:20,240 --> 01:28:23,080
Speaker 1: see who. Let's see who catches it. It's based on

1466
01:28:23,120 --> 01:28:25,120
Speaker 1: a homework assignment I gave the team a long time ago.

1467
01:28:26,400 --> 01:28:29,760
Speaker 1: So here's what happens. They go on TV, they say

1468
01:28:29,800 --> 01:28:34,200
Speaker 1: all of this. The American people, unfortunately, are still very influence,

1469
01:28:34,200 --> 01:28:35,800
Speaker 1: at least those who care about this, by what they

1470
01:28:35,840 --> 01:28:38,400
Speaker 1: see on TV. And so some of them will believe

1471
01:28:38,439 --> 01:28:40,439
Speaker 1: that walls don't work and that a wall is immoral.

1472
01:28:40,880 --> 01:28:42,800
Speaker 1: A lot of them will believe that Trump's willingness to

1473
01:28:42,920 --> 01:28:46,320
Speaker 1: hold up the government or hold up funding for part

1474
01:28:46,400 --> 01:28:49,479
Speaker 1: of the government because of the desire for a wall

1475
01:28:49,640 --> 01:28:52,000
Speaker 1: is irresponsible and whatever. And so the Democrats get their way,

1476
01:28:52,080 --> 01:28:57,320
Speaker 1: even though this is all built upon stupidity, and this

1477
01:28:57,479 --> 01:29:00,799
Speaker 1: is all built upon falsehood. A wall all is not immoral.

1478
01:29:01,240 --> 01:29:03,000
Speaker 1: If a wall is a moral, then border patrol is

1479
01:29:03,040 --> 01:29:04,759
Speaker 1: a moral. If border patrol is a moral, we should

1480
01:29:04,760 --> 01:29:07,719
Speaker 1: have open borders. This is not hard. The Left cannot

1481
01:29:07,720 --> 01:29:10,479
Speaker 1: win this argument. They are wrong. They do not believe

1482
01:29:10,520 --> 01:29:13,479
Speaker 1: in helping to secure the border. They like the status quo,

1483
01:29:13,800 --> 01:29:16,120
Speaker 1: which is not an open border. It is a porous border.

1484
01:29:16,560 --> 01:29:20,200
Speaker 1: It is thirty forty fifty thousand illegals a month, pouring

1485
01:29:20,280 --> 01:29:24,160
Speaker 1: in month after month after month. Anybody who tells you

1486
01:29:24,520 --> 01:29:26,800
Speaker 1: that an equivalent number are leaving this country to go

1487
01:29:26,960 --> 01:29:29,639
Speaker 1: back to Honduras or Mexico, which had been the that's

1488
01:29:29,680 --> 01:29:31,920
Speaker 1: the story, will sometimes here, Oh, well, the economy got bad,

1489
01:29:31,960 --> 01:29:35,920
Speaker 1: there's an outflow bull These people are idiots. A lot

1490
01:29:36,000 --> 01:29:39,120
Speaker 1: of stupidity out there, a lot of very self serving stupidity, unfortunately.

1491
01:29:39,200 --> 01:29:43,200
Speaker 1: But that's what you are coming across on the left

1492
01:29:43,280 --> 01:29:46,880
Speaker 1: and these Democrat circles where they say these things. And

1493
01:29:47,520 --> 01:29:50,120
Speaker 1: we still have not dealt with the underlying issues here.

1494
01:29:50,160 --> 01:29:55,720
Speaker 1: We still have not handled the problem of illegal immigration

1495
01:29:55,920 --> 01:30:00,719
Speaker 1: as it is presented to us today. And I played

1496
01:30:00,800 --> 01:30:05,280
Speaker 1: that that Tom Brokaw thing for you, and it's it's

1497
01:30:05,400 --> 01:30:08,400
Speaker 1: pretty amazing how much they john than Remember Tom Brokaw

1498
01:30:08,479 --> 01:30:12,000
Speaker 1: said that maybe illegals, or rather maybe some immigrant communities,

1499
01:30:12,000 --> 01:30:14,720
Speaker 1: the Latino community, needs to work a little harder at assimilation,

1500
01:30:15,400 --> 01:30:17,040
Speaker 1: you know. And I mean I would go as far

1501
01:30:17,160 --> 01:30:19,599
Speaker 1: to say, I don't want I don't think that ballots

1502
01:30:19,640 --> 01:30:22,600
Speaker 1: should be printed in other languages. I think that I

1503
01:30:22,680 --> 01:30:24,799
Speaker 1: don't think that schools should be taught at other languages.

1504
01:30:25,320 --> 01:30:30,800
Speaker 1: Language is an essential part of social and political and

1505
01:30:31,080 --> 01:30:38,560
Speaker 1: nation state, polity, political union, cohesion. Okay, essential, it is indispensable.

1506
01:30:39,400 --> 01:30:43,000
Speaker 1: How we communicate is also a function, or rather also

1507
01:30:43,040 --> 01:30:47,640
Speaker 1: affects how we see everything around us. That people are

1508
01:30:47,680 --> 01:30:50,559
Speaker 1: opposed to this notion just goes to show you how

1509
01:30:50,640 --> 01:30:56,160
Speaker 1: little they really care about a durable assimilation that would

1510
01:30:56,160 --> 01:30:58,800
Speaker 1: be happening over the course of year after year, because

1511
01:30:58,840 --> 01:31:00,960
Speaker 1: we're bringing in a million Lead Eagal immigrants a year,

1512
01:31:02,000 --> 01:31:06,960
Speaker 1: making them green card holders, permanent residence, etc. But here's

1513
01:31:07,000 --> 01:31:08,920
Speaker 1: what happens, you know, here's what happens to somebody like

1514
01:31:09,120 --> 01:31:12,559
Speaker 1: Tom Brokaw when they decide that he says something bad,

1515
01:31:12,760 --> 01:31:18,839
Speaker 1: NBC calls him out. Play Play thirteen, a former longtime

1516
01:31:18,880 --> 01:31:21,040
Speaker 1: anchor of this broadcast, is in the news tonight for

1517
01:31:21,160 --> 01:31:24,320
Speaker 1: comments he made Sunday on Meet the Press. The criticism

1518
01:31:24,479 --> 01:31:28,040
Speaker 1: was widespread and almost immediate. Les Or Tonight at NBC

1519
01:31:28,160 --> 01:31:32,760
Speaker 1: News spokesman tells me quote Tom's comments were inaccurate and inappropriate,

1520
01:31:33,000 --> 01:31:37,960
Speaker 1: and we're glad he apologized. How could it be inaccurate

1521
01:31:38,560 --> 01:31:41,400
Speaker 1: to say that people should try harder at assimilation, that's

1522
01:31:41,400 --> 01:31:46,439
Speaker 1: an opinion. How could it be inaccurate to say that

1523
01:31:46,880 --> 01:31:49,960
Speaker 1: people should learn English in this country? That's an opinion.

1524
01:31:50,280 --> 01:31:54,080
Speaker 1: It's a good opinion, by the way, But notice how

1525
01:31:55,320 --> 01:31:59,160
Speaker 1: they go to this place of not just opposing opposing

1526
01:31:59,200 --> 01:32:01,320
Speaker 1: what Tom brokas that. Look, I give credit to people

1527
01:32:01,400 --> 01:32:04,360
Speaker 1: when they say smart things. Whatever, whoever the person may be,

1528
01:32:04,439 --> 01:32:06,439
Speaker 1: If they say something that's correct or smart, I'm gonna

1529
01:32:06,439 --> 01:32:11,040
Speaker 1: say they are it is correct and they are smart.

1530
01:32:12,280 --> 01:32:16,400
Speaker 1: So Brokaw is forrest here to, you know, to eat

1531
01:32:16,400 --> 01:32:18,920
Speaker 1: a little humble pie, eat some crow. Why why can't

1532
01:32:18,960 --> 01:32:22,160
Speaker 1: we have this discussion? This is part of why, a

1533
01:32:22,240 --> 01:32:24,920
Speaker 1: big part of why Trump won. We're not allowed to

1534
01:32:24,960 --> 01:32:29,280
Speaker 1: discuss assimilation. We're not allowed discussion national discuss I need

1535
01:32:29,320 --> 01:32:32,960
Speaker 1: to speak English too, apparently, discuss a national language. We're

1536
01:32:33,000 --> 01:32:36,360
Speaker 1: not allowed to do that. How can that be shut off?

1537
01:32:36,520 --> 01:32:39,840
Speaker 1: How can we tell ourselves that we are having a

1538
01:32:40,040 --> 01:32:44,000
Speaker 1: real discussion, a real open debate about our immigration policy

1539
01:32:44,920 --> 01:32:48,599
Speaker 1: when anything you say about assimilation that takes into account

1540
01:32:48,640 --> 01:32:51,240
Speaker 1: the possibility that maybe immigrants have a role here. Illegal

1541
01:32:51,280 --> 01:32:56,200
Speaker 1: immigrants have a role here too. Maybe all immigrants have

1542
01:32:56,280 --> 01:32:58,640
Speaker 1: a role here too. That's not to say that there

1543
01:32:58,640 --> 01:33:00,479
Speaker 1: aren't some immigrants who are doing every thing and they're

1544
01:33:00,600 --> 01:33:02,720
Speaker 1: you know, they're great at being Americans. Obviously there are

1545
01:33:02,720 --> 01:33:04,160
Speaker 1: a lot of them, but I'm sure there are some

1546
01:33:04,360 --> 01:33:05,920
Speaker 1: who come here and think of this more as like

1547
01:33:05,960 --> 01:33:09,120
Speaker 1: a jobs program and maybe a soup kitchen. They don't

1548
01:33:09,120 --> 01:33:13,559
Speaker 1: really feel some attachment to this country. You know. English

1549
01:33:13,600 --> 01:33:16,680
Speaker 1: proficiency should be a precondition. It's a precondition, at least

1550
01:33:16,840 --> 01:33:19,439
Speaker 1: it's on paper a precondition in places like Sweden that

1551
01:33:19,479 --> 01:33:22,640
Speaker 1: have had very open door policies for asylum seekers in

1552
01:33:22,720 --> 01:33:27,679
Speaker 1: recent years, much to the social disunity now of that country,

1553
01:33:27,720 --> 01:33:29,559
Speaker 1: and a lot there's a lot of dysfunction that has

1554
01:33:29,600 --> 01:33:33,240
Speaker 1: come from that policy, by the way, and the government

1555
01:33:33,320 --> 01:33:39,920
Speaker 1: is actively in some of those Norse countries. The Northern

1556
01:33:39,960 --> 01:33:41,479
Speaker 1: European be a more proper way to put it. I

1557
01:33:41,560 --> 01:33:45,120
Speaker 1: guess Scandinavian's word I was looking for. They realize that

1558
01:33:45,160 --> 01:33:47,080
Speaker 1: they've made some mistake, but we're not only able to

1559
01:33:47,120 --> 01:33:48,600
Speaker 1: talk about it. Let me let me tell you this.

1560
01:33:49,120 --> 01:33:52,599
Speaker 1: Any issue of politics where people of good faith would

1561
01:33:52,680 --> 01:33:54,560
Speaker 1: want to have a debate and they're not allowed to

1562
01:33:55,240 --> 01:33:58,599
Speaker 1: tells you a lot. And that is the case when

1563
01:33:58,600 --> 01:34:03,960
Speaker 1: it comes to assimilation, immigration, and English as our national language.

1564
01:34:04,320 --> 01:34:08,480
Speaker 1: It's a big problem because what nonbelievers fail to understand

1565
01:34:09,120 --> 01:34:11,519
Speaker 1: is that calling a dream crazy is not an insult,

1566
01:34:12,760 --> 01:34:17,200
Speaker 1: it's a compliment. Don't try to be the fastest runner

1567
01:34:17,240 --> 01:34:20,760
Speaker 1: in your school or the fastest in the world, be

1568
01:34:20,920 --> 01:34:26,719
Speaker 1: the fastest ever. Don't picture yourself wearing Obj's jersey, picture

1569
01:34:26,760 --> 01:34:32,640
Speaker 1: OBJ wearing yours. Don't settle for homecoming queen or linebacker.

1570
01:34:33,439 --> 01:34:37,520
Speaker 1: Do both. So that's one of the inspiring Nike commercials

1571
01:34:37,640 --> 01:34:41,320
Speaker 1: that that great American company puts out on a fairly

1572
01:34:41,400 --> 01:34:44,439
Speaker 1: regular basis. I look, Nike is one of the premier,

1573
01:34:44,920 --> 01:34:49,400
Speaker 1: not just American, but global brands, right Nick, the Goddess

1574
01:34:49,479 --> 01:34:53,320
Speaker 1: of Victory. Nike a pretty amazing story behind it to

1575
01:34:53,439 --> 01:34:55,800
Speaker 1: this guy just realized that nobody was making nobody was

1576
01:34:55,880 --> 01:34:59,439
Speaker 1: making good running shoes, which you would think would be

1577
01:34:59,479 --> 01:35:01,720
Speaker 1: a market would have been pretty well tapped into back

1578
01:35:01,760 --> 01:35:04,320
Speaker 1: in whatever it was the sixties, I think maybe it

1579
01:35:04,400 --> 01:35:07,960
Speaker 1: was in the fifties and forget. But this guy decided

1580
01:35:08,000 --> 01:35:10,479
Speaker 1: to make better running shoes and now you got Nike,

1581
01:35:10,640 --> 01:35:14,360
Speaker 1: which is obviously a huge international conglomerate. But I bring

1582
01:35:14,439 --> 01:35:20,200
Speaker 1: it up because once again we have the pressure, the

1583
01:35:20,720 --> 01:35:25,680
Speaker 1: pressure from the social justice left forcing a company to

1584
01:35:26,200 --> 01:35:30,760
Speaker 1: bend on an issue that is absolutely absurd. You have

1585
01:35:31,640 --> 01:35:37,479
Speaker 1: Muslims demanding on a change dot Org position with fourteen

1586
01:35:37,560 --> 01:35:43,439
Speaker 1: thousand signatures demanding that the Nike Airmax two seventy shoe

1587
01:35:44,360 --> 01:35:49,759
Speaker 1: change the logo because it's it's looks like it's supposed

1588
01:35:49,760 --> 01:35:53,960
Speaker 1: to be kind of a stylized Airmax, but it looks

1589
01:35:54,200 --> 01:35:57,680
Speaker 1: somewhat and I actually know enough Arabic script to know this,

1590
01:35:58,560 --> 01:36:04,679
Speaker 1: it looks vaguely like Allah. It's not in Arabic script,

1591
01:36:04,760 --> 01:36:08,960
Speaker 1: mind you, but the way they've stylized our script, it

1592
01:36:09,160 --> 01:36:12,120
Speaker 1: looks kind of I mean, not much, but kind of

1593
01:36:12,280 --> 01:36:16,800
Speaker 1: like it could possibly be Allah to some eyes. And

1594
01:36:16,920 --> 01:36:19,840
Speaker 1: they expect Nike to change this because to write the

1595
01:36:19,960 --> 01:36:22,479
Speaker 1: name Allah on the bottom of a shoe, which in

1596
01:36:22,560 --> 01:36:24,679
Speaker 1: the Muslim world the bottom of the shoe, is considered

1597
01:36:24,720 --> 01:36:27,760
Speaker 1: a grave insult. This is why when that Iraqi, who

1598
01:36:27,840 --> 01:36:30,559
Speaker 1: by the way, is a member of parliament, now, oh yeah,

1599
01:36:31,000 --> 01:36:33,800
Speaker 1: when that Iraqi threw his shoe at George W. Bush

1600
01:36:33,920 --> 01:36:37,559
Speaker 1: back in two thousand and seven or eight, I think

1601
01:36:37,600 --> 01:36:41,840
Speaker 1: two thousand and eight, it was a grave insult in

1602
01:36:41,920 --> 01:36:43,920
Speaker 1: the Iraqi culture. You know, if you show someone the

1603
01:36:43,960 --> 01:36:47,639
Speaker 1: bottom of your shoe, that's essentially our equivalent of showing

1604
01:36:47,680 --> 01:36:50,439
Speaker 1: them only a single finger in the middle of your hand.

1605
01:36:51,760 --> 01:36:55,400
Speaker 1: But you know, this is where I think that Nike is.

1606
01:36:56,280 --> 01:36:59,240
Speaker 1: You know, it might it might end up having to

1607
01:36:59,320 --> 01:37:01,880
Speaker 1: change its spoke person said, Nike respects all religions. We

1608
01:37:01,960 --> 01:37:05,320
Speaker 1: take the concerns seriously. The Airmax logo was designed to

1609
01:37:05,360 --> 01:37:08,640
Speaker 1: be a stylized representation of Nike's Airmax trademark. It is

1610
01:37:08,640 --> 01:37:12,120
Speaker 1: intended to reflect the Airmax brand only. Any perceived meaning

1611
01:37:12,160 --> 01:37:17,400
Speaker 1: otherwise is unintentional. You know they don't mean allah. But

1612
01:37:17,479 --> 01:37:20,600
Speaker 1: what's even more interesting is notice how there's this tendency

1613
01:37:20,800 --> 01:37:25,719
Speaker 1: and it's common in Islam to force nonbelievers to bend

1614
01:37:25,880 --> 01:37:30,760
Speaker 1: to the unreasonable expectations of many in the Islamic faith,

1615
01:37:31,439 --> 01:37:34,599
Speaker 1: as in, we have to use the language that they demand.

1616
01:37:34,840 --> 01:37:39,080
Speaker 1: We can't have depictions of Muhammad and cartoons or on

1617
01:37:39,240 --> 01:37:42,360
Speaker 1: South Park, even if it's in a bear costume. It's

1618
01:37:42,360 --> 01:37:44,120
Speaker 1: the only religious faith in the world where if you

1619
01:37:44,200 --> 01:37:46,680
Speaker 1: do that, not only will they sign petitions, but there

1620
01:37:46,720 --> 01:37:50,200
Speaker 1: are threats of violence. We haven't been talking much about

1621
01:37:50,240 --> 01:37:53,799
Speaker 1: radical Islam in a while, but here's an early prediction

1622
01:37:53,960 --> 01:37:55,919
Speaker 1: that I can assure you we will have to revisit.

1623
01:37:56,640 --> 01:37:59,280
Speaker 1: Radical Islam is still very much with us around the

1624
01:37:59,320 --> 01:38:03,519
Speaker 1: globe and is going to surge once again as a

1625
01:38:03,760 --> 01:38:06,160
Speaker 1: major problem for us. It is just a question of

1626
01:38:06,200 --> 01:38:16,000
Speaker 1: when roll calls up next, team Buck, It's time for

1627
01:38:16,160 --> 01:38:28,000
Speaker 1: roll call. Okay, roll call, Let's take it from the

1628
01:38:28,080 --> 01:38:32,439
Speaker 1: friend zone to the end zone. Because I I I

1629
01:38:32,880 --> 01:38:35,479
Speaker 1: it's game time something like that. I think that's how

1630
01:38:35,520 --> 01:38:38,559
Speaker 1: the lyrics go. I'm wondering I didn't. Let's let's see

1631
01:38:38,640 --> 01:38:44,160
Speaker 1: how many of you caught the references from yesterday. All right,

1632
01:38:44,240 --> 01:38:46,719
Speaker 1: Let's see as we get into our roll call, Facebook

1633
01:38:46,720 --> 01:38:48,800
Speaker 1: dot com, slash Buck sex and if you want in

1634
01:38:49,120 --> 01:38:53,600
Speaker 1: on this action, which is always fun for those of

1635
01:38:53,640 --> 01:38:55,960
Speaker 1: you who get into like yes, Buck, I will you

1636
01:38:56,040 --> 01:38:58,639
Speaker 1: really read my stuff on the air, We will people

1637
01:38:58,680 --> 01:39:01,639
Speaker 1: across the nation here my words from your lips. Indeed,

1638
01:39:02,360 --> 01:39:06,719
Speaker 1: Facebook dot Com, Slashbuck saxon. All right, Jennifer writes Buck.

1639
01:39:06,880 --> 01:39:10,080
Speaker 1: Not sure if you've seen the hashtag where's Ruth on Twitter?

1640
01:39:10,479 --> 01:39:13,120
Speaker 1: But people are starting to wonder where RBG is and

1641
01:39:13,240 --> 01:39:15,400
Speaker 1: whether her health condition is in fact more serious than

1642
01:39:15,479 --> 01:39:18,479
Speaker 1: thus far reported. It has been sometimes since she was

1643
01:39:18,560 --> 01:39:21,559
Speaker 1: seen in public, and rumors are running wild. All her

1644
01:39:21,680 --> 01:39:25,080
Speaker 1: upcoming engagements are canceled. What are your thoughts? Of course,

1645
01:39:25,200 --> 01:39:28,040
Speaker 1: we wish only good health to Justice Ginsburg. But the

1646
01:39:28,120 --> 01:39:30,559
Speaker 1: silence on her condition is concerning. We know she's absent

1647
01:39:30,600 --> 01:39:33,240
Speaker 1: from oral arguments. Is she participating in court matters? Are

1648
01:39:33,280 --> 01:39:35,679
Speaker 1: her clerks filling her role? Why is no one reporting

1649
01:39:35,760 --> 01:39:38,439
Speaker 1: on this shield? Hie jen Jen. I think that there.

1650
01:39:38,560 --> 01:39:42,240
Speaker 1: I saw some reporting yesterday from some reporters I know

1651
01:39:42,320 --> 01:39:43,880
Speaker 1: here in DC, at least one that I know of

1652
01:39:43,960 --> 01:39:47,280
Speaker 1: in DC, saying that she's been seen working out with

1653
01:39:47,400 --> 01:39:49,640
Speaker 1: a trainer. And I'm being serious about that. That was

1654
01:39:49,640 --> 01:39:52,599
Speaker 1: the report that I saw in DC. So I think

1655
01:39:52,680 --> 01:39:56,200
Speaker 1: she's okay and in recovery. I don't think that there's

1656
01:39:56,200 --> 01:40:01,000
Speaker 1: any imminent health concern for Ruth Vader Ginsburg. And as

1657
01:40:01,600 --> 01:40:05,280
Speaker 1: as moral and decent conservatives and human beings, we always

1658
01:40:05,720 --> 01:40:09,880
Speaker 1: wish any of our fellow Americans, or anyone for that matter,

1659
01:40:10,000 --> 01:40:15,400
Speaker 1: the best when it comes to their health. David right hey,

1660
01:40:15,479 --> 01:40:18,200
Speaker 1: buck back after a small sabbatical. Good luck with the beard,

1661
01:40:18,600 --> 01:40:21,080
Speaker 1: and you should check out a Ripper Street on Netflix.

1662
01:40:21,280 --> 01:40:26,320
Speaker 1: Check you later, David, doc ripper Street, Huh? Is that

1663
01:40:26,439 --> 01:40:29,519
Speaker 1: like a Jack the Ripper thing. I'm enjoying Peaky Blinders

1664
01:40:29,560 --> 01:40:31,920
Speaker 1: so much. I'm in the last few episodes, and you

1665
01:40:32,000 --> 01:40:35,519
Speaker 1: know it's a great show when you have this concern

1666
01:40:35,560 --> 01:40:37,000
Speaker 1: about what are you going to do when the show

1667
01:40:37,160 --> 01:40:39,880
Speaker 1: ends because you think the show is so fantastic. That's

1668
01:40:39,960 --> 01:40:42,920
Speaker 1: kind of where I am with Peaky Blinders. I'm just like, oh,

1669
01:40:43,080 --> 01:40:44,840
Speaker 1: I want to keep watching, but I want to save it.

1670
01:40:45,000 --> 01:40:48,680
Speaker 1: You know. It's like that last slice of pizza, Like

1671
01:40:48,800 --> 01:40:51,040
Speaker 1: I want to save it for tomorrow, but I want

1672
01:40:51,080 --> 01:40:54,840
Speaker 1: to have it now because it's delicious. So indeed, was

1673
01:40:54,880 --> 01:40:56,519
Speaker 1: that that? Probably I got a little close. Sometimes it

1674
01:40:56,640 --> 01:40:58,040
Speaker 1: look close to the mic, and if I hear it

1675
01:40:58,240 --> 01:41:02,240
Speaker 1: back later, sounds a little creepy. So I should probably

1676
01:41:02,280 --> 01:41:04,360
Speaker 1: not do that. Try to get a little effect, a

1677
01:41:04,400 --> 01:41:09,000
Speaker 1: little theatricality here in the Freedom Hunt for your edification

1678
01:41:09,160 --> 01:41:13,920
Speaker 1: and entertainment, well really just for your entertainment, Caroline hey Buck.

1679
01:41:14,240 --> 01:41:17,400
Speaker 1: There's an important story out there receiving very little attention,

1680
01:41:17,600 --> 01:41:22,439
Speaker 1: the Mexican gas crisis. Apparently, Mexican gangs have been siphoning

1681
01:41:22,520 --> 01:41:24,760
Speaker 1: gasolin off the pipelines, and the government has shut the

1682
01:41:24,800 --> 01:41:28,320
Speaker 1: pipelines down. The only way gas can be transported now

1683
01:41:28,479 --> 01:41:32,080
Speaker 1: is by truck, which is way more inefficient and inexpensive.

1684
01:41:32,360 --> 01:41:34,479
Speaker 1: The lines are huge. People are running out and can't

1685
01:41:34,479 --> 01:41:37,280
Speaker 1: get to work. And their economy is being crushed. What

1686
01:41:37,439 --> 01:41:39,639
Speaker 1: will this mean for the immigration crisis in the Wall.

1687
01:41:39,720 --> 01:41:43,559
Speaker 1: I'd love to hear your take on this. Shields High.

1688
01:41:43,760 --> 01:41:46,599
Speaker 1: You know this is thank you so much for bringing

1689
01:41:46,640 --> 01:41:52,080
Speaker 1: this to my attention. I am not aware of this,

1690
01:41:52,920 --> 01:41:55,680
Speaker 1: although I know it is it is happening as I

1691
01:41:56,080 --> 01:41:59,519
Speaker 1: do a quick Google search looking up what you're talking about. Yeah,

1692
01:41:59,560 --> 01:42:03,160
Speaker 1: that there's a fuel crisis in Mexico. I didn't know

1693
01:42:03,160 --> 01:42:06,560
Speaker 1: about this. This is really interesting though, because in countries

1694
01:42:06,880 --> 01:42:11,080
Speaker 1: where there is a natural resource wealth and there is

1695
01:42:11,240 --> 01:42:15,160
Speaker 1: an active either organized, very active organized crime element, or

1696
01:42:15,200 --> 01:42:19,560
Speaker 1: even an insurgency, it's a very bad sign for the

1697
01:42:19,640 --> 01:42:24,280
Speaker 1: stability of that country. When the criminal group, whether it's

1698
01:42:24,280 --> 01:42:28,799
Speaker 1: an insurgent or terrorist group or a just a organized

1699
01:42:28,840 --> 01:42:33,560
Speaker 1: crime cartel like organization, when they go after state resources,

1700
01:42:34,720 --> 01:42:36,920
Speaker 1: you got a big problem. You know. It's one thing

1701
01:42:36,960 --> 01:42:41,040
Speaker 1: when they want to run their illicit their illicit schemes, right,

1702
01:42:41,080 --> 01:42:46,400
Speaker 1: they want to do drug running, gun running, prostitution, human trafficking,

1703
01:42:46,479 --> 01:42:49,800
Speaker 1: all those things. Those aren't businesses, or at least they're

1704
01:42:49,800 --> 01:42:52,040
Speaker 1: not supposed to be businesses that the state is in.

1705
01:42:52,560 --> 01:42:56,200
Speaker 1: But when they're going after the lifeblood economically of the

1706
01:42:56,280 --> 01:43:01,280
Speaker 1: state itself. That's very concerning. It's it's the truth. In Nigeria,

1707
01:43:01,880 --> 01:43:04,680
Speaker 1: there was a hole. There was a whole movement and

1708
01:43:04,720 --> 01:43:07,839
Speaker 1: actually called the Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger

1709
01:43:08,000 --> 01:43:12,280
Speaker 1: Delta or the it's essentially an insurgency movement in the

1710
01:43:12,400 --> 01:43:17,679
Speaker 1: Delta region of the Niger River in Nigeria that wants

1711
01:43:17,720 --> 01:43:19,599
Speaker 1: a greater share of the oil wealth because the very

1712
01:43:19,600 --> 01:43:21,519
Speaker 1: impoverished area and the money just goes to the federal

1713
01:43:21,600 --> 01:43:24,599
Speaker 1: government and there's tremendous corruption there, but they go right

1714
01:43:24,680 --> 01:43:27,840
Speaker 1: for the oil wealth. And they also will engage in

1715
01:43:27,960 --> 01:43:32,439
Speaker 1: oil bunkering where they will try to get access to

1716
01:43:32,560 --> 01:43:36,559
Speaker 1: the oil through pipelines and there's actually there are actually

1717
01:43:36,640 --> 01:43:39,479
Speaker 1: some photos of people doing this and once in a

1718
01:43:39,520 --> 01:43:45,240
Speaker 1: while somebody makes the very unwise decision when they're whacking

1719
01:43:45,360 --> 01:43:49,120
Speaker 1: at an oil pipeline with hammers with buckets out to

1720
01:43:49,720 --> 01:43:52,439
Speaker 1: engage in this oil bunkering. And this is if you

1721
01:43:52,479 --> 01:43:54,640
Speaker 1: look this up online, you'll see it. In Nigeria. I

1722
01:43:54,680 --> 01:43:56,840
Speaker 1: think in one instance that they lost it was in

1723
01:43:56,920 --> 01:43:58,599
Speaker 1: the three digits. I can't remember if it was one

1724
01:43:58,680 --> 01:44:01,920
Speaker 1: hundred or three hundred, but I mean people just immolated

1725
01:44:02,040 --> 01:44:06,599
Speaker 1: in a Nigerian oil ball of fire, and it's because

1726
01:44:06,680 --> 01:44:11,120
Speaker 1: they had their buckets out at the pipeline smoking a cigarette,

1727
01:44:12,680 --> 01:44:18,680
Speaker 1: very very unwise for everybody in the vicinity of that pipeline.

1728
01:44:19,040 --> 01:44:21,240
Speaker 1: So I will this is a great heads up. And

1729
01:44:21,320 --> 01:44:23,360
Speaker 1: by the way, all of you should always feel like

1730
01:44:23,520 --> 01:44:25,360
Speaker 1: if you don't hear me talk about a story, you know,

1731
01:44:25,680 --> 01:44:29,120
Speaker 1: I appreciate it when you send me the biggest headline

1732
01:44:29,200 --> 01:44:31,200
Speaker 1: on Fox News for the day, just because I love

1733
01:44:31,280 --> 01:44:33,599
Speaker 1: the team spirit and the team effort. But I've usually

1734
01:44:33,640 --> 01:44:36,720
Speaker 1: got that covered just by way of making sure we're

1735
01:44:36,720 --> 01:44:39,320
Speaker 1: all using our time in the best possible manner. But

1736
01:44:39,439 --> 01:44:42,439
Speaker 1: if you know of a story that I haven't hit

1737
01:44:42,560 --> 01:44:45,080
Speaker 1: that you think is something the rest of the team

1738
01:44:45,200 --> 01:44:47,960
Speaker 1: should here, send it to my Facebook inbox. And we're

1739
01:44:48,000 --> 01:44:50,759
Speaker 1: in that inbox every day looking at pitches and stories

1740
01:44:50,800 --> 01:44:53,280
Speaker 1: and all the rest of it. So don't be shy

1741
01:44:53,400 --> 01:44:55,519
Speaker 1: about that. And if I don't get to it, don't

1742
01:44:55,640 --> 01:44:57,360
Speaker 1: don't think that I'm not reading it. I just we

1743
01:44:57,439 --> 01:44:58,800
Speaker 1: got a lot of things to get to hear of

1744
01:44:58,840 --> 01:45:00,599
Speaker 1: the course of the show. Okay, obvious say that story

1745
01:45:00,680 --> 01:45:02,320
Speaker 1: really interested me. So I went on a bit of

1746
01:45:02,400 --> 01:45:05,840
Speaker 1: a bit of a tangent there. Oh, I want to

1747
01:45:05,880 --> 01:45:07,200
Speaker 1: make sure that I give you to give you the

1748
01:45:07,280 --> 01:45:12,280
Speaker 1: proper facts. Oil bunkering in Nigeria has killed as many

1749
01:45:12,400 --> 01:45:17,320
Speaker 1: in one incident in a pipeline explosion as seven hundred people.

1750
01:45:17,360 --> 01:45:19,680
Speaker 1: I thought it was three hundred people. This was a

1751
01:45:19,800 --> 01:45:23,719
Speaker 1: nineteen ninety eight. A fireball shot up one hundred feet

1752
01:45:23,760 --> 01:45:30,519
Speaker 1: into the sky and seven hundred people were incinerated. Wow,

1753
01:45:31,720 --> 01:45:33,360
Speaker 1: I thought three hundred was maybe I was, I was

1754
01:45:33,400 --> 01:45:37,200
Speaker 1: gonna high Nope, it was seven hundred. I spent some

1755
01:45:37,360 --> 01:45:40,680
Speaker 1: time in Sub Saharan Africa. I never get to talk

1756
01:45:40,720 --> 01:45:42,080
Speaker 1: about it on the show. Maybe one day I'll be

1757
01:45:42,120 --> 01:45:43,600
Speaker 1: able to talk about on the show. I probably have

1758
01:45:43,720 --> 01:45:47,360
Speaker 1: to check in on some things first. Sub Saharan Africa

1759
01:45:47,520 --> 01:45:50,240
Speaker 1: is a, depending on where you are, very beautiful place

1760
01:45:50,640 --> 01:45:56,000
Speaker 1: or a very dangerous and depressing place. Okay. Next up

1761
01:45:56,120 --> 01:46:01,439
Speaker 1: here in the Facebook box, David right Shield's High Buck

1762
01:46:01,479 --> 01:46:05,599
Speaker 1: podcast listener on Kamala Harris's history of wanting to prosecute

1763
01:46:05,640 --> 01:46:08,280
Speaker 1: parents if their kids don't show up to school. We

1764
01:46:08,479 --> 01:46:11,120
Speaker 1: know what that was really about. If a kid doesn't

1765
01:46:11,160 --> 01:46:13,760
Speaker 1: show up, the school gets no money for that kid

1766
01:46:13,920 --> 01:46:16,800
Speaker 1: that day. Money for the school means money for the union.

1767
01:46:16,800 --> 01:46:20,759
Speaker 1: Which goes to Democrat campaigns, and yes, it was intended

1768
01:46:20,800 --> 01:46:24,600
Speaker 1: as a stepping stone to criminalizing homeschooling for exactly the

1769
01:46:24,680 --> 01:46:27,800
Speaker 1: same reasons. Well, David, I definitely know that the state

1770
01:46:28,080 --> 01:46:32,600
Speaker 1: is very in general, especially the more statist states, the

1771
01:46:32,800 --> 01:46:36,519
Speaker 1: very blue states, are opposed to and will do whatever

1772
01:46:36,600 --> 01:46:41,200
Speaker 1: they can to knock down homeschooling. Okay, so start with

1773
01:46:41,360 --> 01:46:44,600
Speaker 1: that they don't like it for exactly what you said. Unfortunately,

1774
01:46:45,560 --> 01:46:47,880
Speaker 1: you only have to look at the numbers for the

1775
01:46:47,920 --> 01:46:50,120
Speaker 1: public school system in this country and you get a

1776
01:46:50,240 --> 01:46:53,599
Speaker 1: very clear sense of just what's important in the Department

1777
01:46:53,600 --> 01:46:57,760
Speaker 1: of Education, and it is pensions, health benefits, and the

1778
01:46:57,920 --> 01:47:02,360
Speaker 1: hiring of non teaching bureaus. That's what really moves the

1779
01:47:02,479 --> 01:47:06,439
Speaker 1: needle for the public school teach. The public school staff,

1780
01:47:06,479 --> 01:47:09,000
Speaker 1: I should say, in this country they have hired a

1781
01:47:09,280 --> 01:47:14,080
Speaker 1: massive increase of administrators. Some do important things, a lot

1782
01:47:14,160 --> 01:47:15,639
Speaker 1: of them don't. A lot of them are just pushing

1783
01:47:15,720 --> 01:47:18,240
Speaker 1: paper around for the local school district or for the

1784
01:47:18,280 --> 01:47:21,360
Speaker 1: superintendence office or whatever. A lot of you know, English

1785
01:47:21,360 --> 01:47:23,439
Speaker 1: as a second language teachers and tutors that have to

1786
01:47:23,520 --> 01:47:26,960
Speaker 1: come in. We all know what that's about. So this

1787
01:47:27,200 --> 01:47:29,439
Speaker 1: is where you really the rubber really meets the road

1788
01:47:29,800 --> 01:47:33,599
Speaker 1: for the teachers unions with funding, that's what they really

1789
01:47:33,720 --> 01:47:37,519
Speaker 1: care about. And so your point about people not wanting

1790
01:47:37,600 --> 01:47:40,559
Speaker 1: or rather Kamala Harris not wanting people to hold their

1791
01:47:40,640 --> 01:47:42,960
Speaker 1: children back from school because they don't get paid for

1792
01:47:43,040 --> 01:47:45,560
Speaker 1: that day. I don't know if that is true, but

1793
01:47:45,840 --> 01:47:48,680
Speaker 1: if that is accurate, then your theory is certainly very

1794
01:47:48,800 --> 01:47:50,880
Speaker 1: interesting and I'd want to dig into that some more.

1795
01:47:51,680 --> 01:47:56,639
Speaker 1: But yes, the teachers unions represent adults. They don't really

1796
01:47:56,880 --> 01:47:59,680
Speaker 1: represent kids. And I know people get very mad when

1797
01:47:59,680 --> 01:48:02,559
Speaker 1: I say that, but you know, it's never really about

1798
01:48:02,560 --> 01:48:04,840
Speaker 1: how to fix things for the kids. It's always shorter

1799
01:48:04,960 --> 01:48:10,000
Speaker 1: working hours, smaller class eyes, more money, more benefits. That

1800
01:48:10,320 --> 01:48:12,080
Speaker 1: they'll say that that's also they can do a better

1801
01:48:12,200 --> 01:48:15,240
Speaker 1: job of teaching. But that's a pretty self serving explanation

1802
01:48:15,360 --> 01:48:19,120
Speaker 1: for everything that the teachers Union is pushing for. And

1803
01:48:19,680 --> 01:48:22,960
Speaker 1: que angry emails from members of the teachers Union into

1804
01:48:23,040 --> 01:48:27,280
Speaker 1: my inbox. All right, Leah, listeners may want to switch

1805
01:48:27,360 --> 01:48:31,880
Speaker 1: to cast box pods. Casts on cast box they are working,

1806
01:48:32,000 --> 01:48:34,479
Speaker 1: all available in playing Leah. I hadn't. I don't even

1807
01:48:34,479 --> 01:48:36,760
Speaker 1: never I've never even heard of cast box pods, So

1808
01:48:37,720 --> 01:48:39,679
Speaker 1: thank you for the heads up on that. You've taught

1809
01:48:39,720 --> 01:48:43,200
Speaker 1: me something new today and we'll have to check it out.

1810
01:48:44,160 --> 01:48:47,160
Speaker 1: Robert writes, second Day Without a Buck, Sex and Show

1811
01:48:47,200 --> 01:48:52,760
Speaker 1: on Stitcher, what's up? Oh my gosh, come on, really, producer, Mike,

1812
01:48:53,600 --> 01:48:55,479
Speaker 1: I got to write an angry email to someone who

1813
01:48:55,520 --> 01:48:58,000
Speaker 1: do I write the angry email to you? Man. We've

1814
01:48:58,040 --> 01:49:00,720
Speaker 1: got to get the podcast has to be up every day.

1815
01:49:00,760 --> 01:49:02,479
Speaker 1: I know it's not on you, Mike, it's that it's

1816
01:49:02,520 --> 01:49:05,880
Speaker 1: the tech side of this. But you know, we do

1817
01:49:06,040 --> 01:49:08,200
Speaker 1: this incredible show. We got to be able to get

1818
01:49:08,760 --> 01:49:11,320
Speaker 1: the hundreds and thousands of people, hundreds of thousands people

1819
01:49:11,320 --> 01:49:14,240
Speaker 1: that are listening, to be able to listen. Darn it

1820
01:49:15,240 --> 01:49:21,960
Speaker 1: all right. That frustrates me. John writes all that jabbering

1821
01:49:22,040 --> 01:49:25,280
Speaker 1: about the Punisher was pure torture, and if you can't

1822
01:49:25,880 --> 01:49:28,400
Speaker 1: grow a beard without asking other guys for advice, you

1823
01:49:28,439 --> 01:49:35,800
Speaker 1: should just shave and shut up. John. You see them

1824
01:49:35,840 --> 01:49:38,479
Speaker 1: a little grumpy, my friend. I think that you would

1825
01:49:38,479 --> 01:49:43,240
Speaker 1: be better off not listening to this show. There are

1826
01:49:43,280 --> 01:49:46,479
Speaker 1: so many other shows for somebody of your temperament and

1827
01:49:46,760 --> 01:49:51,599
Speaker 1: obvious intellectual ability. Go listen to one of those shows.

1828
01:49:51,680 --> 01:49:56,120
Speaker 1: Then that's fine. Good luck finding somebody more well versed

1829
01:49:56,160 --> 01:49:57,439
Speaker 1: in the issues that we talk about it and go

1830
01:49:57,560 --> 01:49:59,360
Speaker 1: listen to that show. You'll be looking for a very

1831
01:49:59,439 --> 01:50:02,160
Speaker 1: long time. But I wish you all the best, and

1832
01:50:03,000 --> 01:50:06,920
Speaker 1: the profanity was unnecessary. Michael. I have the cure for

1833
01:50:07,040 --> 01:50:11,840
Speaker 1: global warming. Make it illegal for Democrats to exhale carbon dioxide.

1834
01:50:12,240 --> 01:50:16,400
Speaker 1: They can inhale all they want, but not exhale. Hm.

1835
01:50:17,840 --> 01:50:20,320
Speaker 1: I'm not sure that that policy will work in action, Michael,

1836
01:50:20,400 --> 01:50:22,960
Speaker 1: but I like where your heads at all right, I

1837
01:50:23,080 --> 01:50:29,479
Speaker 1: will hold on a second, Alex. One more here, Buck,

1838
01:50:29,640 --> 01:50:34,080
Speaker 1: Thanks again for your fantastic show. I have a question,

1839
01:50:34,120 --> 01:50:36,920
Speaker 1: where are the inspectors general? They just seem to be missing.

1840
01:50:37,360 --> 01:50:39,280
Speaker 1: Would you take some time to explain their function, how

1841
01:50:39,280 --> 01:50:41,360
Speaker 1: they're chosen, what they oversee, how many there are and

1842
01:50:41,439 --> 01:50:44,000
Speaker 1: how long a typical or atypical for that matter, investigation

1843
01:50:44,080 --> 01:50:47,920
Speaker 1: has taken historically. How many different active investigations are ongoing,

1844
01:50:48,240 --> 01:50:49,920
Speaker 1: so what do we know from them so far? I

1845
01:50:50,040 --> 01:50:52,360
Speaker 1: have so many questions. Shouldn't require a deep dive, maybe

1846
01:50:52,400 --> 01:50:55,240
Speaker 1: just a well executed racing dive in shallow waters. Thank

1847
01:50:55,280 --> 01:50:58,479
Speaker 1: you and shields high, Alex. Alex, great questions, but it

1848
