1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:03,960
Speaker 1: Welcome everybody to the Thursday edition of the Clay Travis

2
00:00:04,080 --> 00:00:06,960
Speaker 1: en Buck Sexton Show. Good to be back with all

3
00:00:06,960 --> 00:00:09,040
Speaker 1: of you. That I will say, good to be back

4
00:00:09,080 --> 00:00:11,920
Speaker 1: with you. I miss you all, and I did get

5
00:00:11,960 --> 00:00:17,799
Speaker 1: to enjoy listening in as Clay enjoyed the Faucha thon

6
00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:22,600
Speaker 1: that occurred yesterday. I would I, on the instruction of Council,

7
00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:24,840
Speaker 1: I am evoking my Fifth Amendment.

8
00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:25,279
Speaker 2: Right.

9
00:00:25,880 --> 00:00:28,320
Speaker 1: You will notice I am not wearing a mask as

10
00:00:28,360 --> 00:00:34,160
Speaker 1: I do this very sad exclamation point. So Fauci yesterday

11
00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:37,840
Speaker 1: steward for all to see, because Clay, you know there's

12
00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:41,239
Speaker 1: there's invoking the Fifth as I know you were discussing yesterday,

13
00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:45,160
Speaker 1: when everyone can understand why you would do it. Well,

14
00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:47,040
Speaker 1: you already have a pardon for everything in the past.

15
00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:51,479
Speaker 1: Why can't you just speak honestly about your these things?

16
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:59,320
Speaker 1: And it's because all of Fauci's past history now exposed

17
00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:04,160
Speaker 1: via these missives that he wrote himself, these love letters

18
00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:07,280
Speaker 1: that he wrote on a government server, which can I

19
00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:11,679
Speaker 1: also just say, Clay, so dumb. Yes, that is the

20
00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:14,119
Speaker 1: other part of this that I know you were hitting

21
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:16,920
Speaker 1: on yesterday. A lot of all things Fauci, the fact

22
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:20,400
Speaker 1: that he thought, I'm just going to write about how

23
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:25,000
Speaker 1: handsome I am and how much Julia Roberts just had

24
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:27,520
Speaker 1: a twinkle in her eye when I was telling her

25
00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:35,200
Speaker 1: about mitigation measures. This guy truly delusional. And now I

26
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:40,920
Speaker 1: have to say the mockery that any person can see

27
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:43,760
Speaker 1: as a result of all this, this is what is needed.

28
00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:46,360
Speaker 1: Because they were gonna hold out on all of this

29
00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:49,520
Speaker 1: and say, oh, but the science is still with Fauci,

30
00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:52,440
Speaker 1: you know, Clay, the defense in recent years had been

31
00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:58,120
Speaker 1: it was a fog of war situation. It was there's

32
00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:00,360
Speaker 1: no fog of war when you're writing about how you're

33
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 1: the most famous person in the world, while you're telling

34
00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:06,240
Speaker 1: everybody if they hug Grandma, you're gonna kill her. You

35
00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:08,800
Speaker 1: know what I mean, there's no fog of war defense

36
00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:10,960
Speaker 1: there the whole process.

37
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:14,600
Speaker 3: I do think we've talked a lot about how history

38
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:18,519
Speaker 3: is going to handle COVID. I think Fauci on some

39
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:23,560
Speaker 3: level is starting to realize, oh wait, I'm gonna be

40
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:26,519
Speaker 3: the bad guy of this story. You know, like you

41
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:31,480
Speaker 3: always have that question, do the villains of history totally

42
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:34,520
Speaker 3: understand that they'll be the villains of history because one

43
00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:37,120
Speaker 3: of the great you know, sort of cliches of history

44
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 3: is that the winners write history, so we don't really know.

45
00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:42,480
Speaker 3: I mean, there's probably a lot of good guys that

46
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:45,600
Speaker 3: end up losing. Bad guys write them their cast differently.

47
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:48,200
Speaker 3: I mean Shakespeare is a great example of this in

48
00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:52,840
Speaker 3: the way that his history plays defined what we think

49
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:56,519
Speaker 3: oftentimes about English kings, Scottish kings, all these different things.

50
00:02:57,680 --> 00:02:59,519
Speaker 1: But really, when you look at.

51
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:02,280
Speaker 3: This, I think I felt like there was a little

52
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:09,560
Speaker 3: bit of a realization behind Fauci's stony, indignant, constant recitation

53
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:12,280
Speaker 3: one hundred and eleven times of his fifth Amendment. I

54
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:16,320
Speaker 3: felt like buck part of him was starting to recognize, oh,

55
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:18,640
Speaker 3: wait a minute, I'm going to be the bad guy.

56
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:21,200
Speaker 3: And he's eighty five years old, and let's say he

57
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:25,320
Speaker 3: lives fifteen more years. You and I, hopefully and many

58
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:28,360
Speaker 3: of our listeners are going to live long enough for

59
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:31,400
Speaker 3: the history of COVID to start to be written. And

60
00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:36,160
Speaker 3: I think the idea that Anthony Fauci's diary indicated was

61
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:38,480
Speaker 3: that he believed he was going to be the hero.

62
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:41,880
Speaker 3: I think he's starting to recognize, wait, I'm going to

63
00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:44,080
Speaker 3: be the villain, and this is not going to be

64
00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:49,200
Speaker 3: some story of incredible success that I was the father of. Instead,

65
00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:51,320
Speaker 3: I'm going to be the guy who got paddle borders

66
00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:53,960
Speaker 3: arrested on the ocean that people can't believe is real

67
00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:55,600
Speaker 3: in the decades to come.

68
00:03:56,440 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 1: Isn't it. In Batman, the Dark Knight Rise is when

69
00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:03,280
Speaker 1: he says, die a hero, or live long enough to

70
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:07,920
Speaker 1: see yourself the villain. Yeah, Fauci is seeing himself the villain.

71
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:10,280
Speaker 1: And I really think that the only way that this

72
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:13,080
Speaker 1: could have broken through as it did yesterday in that

73
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:19,560
Speaker 1: hearing was the fact that you cannot explain. They can

74
00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:22,760
Speaker 1: argue the science all day, They can argue whose decision

75
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:26,520
Speaker 1: everything was and everything else. You know, Clay, if you're

76
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:31,280
Speaker 1: the four star general during a war and you know

77
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:36,039
Speaker 1: you're like having an affair with a subordinate and all,

78
00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:38,640
Speaker 1: and you're writing things about how you know you want

79
00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:41,240
Speaker 1: to be on CNN and it's a parent that you're

80
00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:44,000
Speaker 1: not showing up for like funerals of your soldiers, there's

81
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:47,080
Speaker 1: no excuse for that. I understand this is different. It's

82
00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:50,960
Speaker 1: not military, but there is a similar sense of you

83
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:54,400
Speaker 1: were the captain of the ship here, the four star

84
00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:58,640
Speaker 1: general in this metaphor, and you were really more concerned

85
00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:01,400
Speaker 1: at the peak, at the worst of COVID, you were

86
00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:05,920
Speaker 1: obsessed with how much attention you were getting, and you

87
00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:08,680
Speaker 1: wrote it down and there's no debate about it. So

88
00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:13,839
Speaker 1: Fauci as a megalomaniac is no longer a point of argument,

89
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:17,080
Speaker 1: and that takes it even further than just he got

90
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:18,960
Speaker 1: some stuff wrong, because you know what they were saying

91
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:22,000
Speaker 1: the whole time was he did his best. Yes, he

92
00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:24,000
Speaker 1: did his best based on and we knew that was

93
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 1: a lie. You knew what I knew it. We've been

94
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:29,359
Speaker 1: talking about this for years, but this actually was the

95
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:32,520
Speaker 1: achilles heel for him. Oh No, he really was obsessed

96
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:35,720
Speaker 1: with himself, and no one can argue that anymore one

97
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:36,359
Speaker 1: hundred percent.

98
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:39,200
Speaker 3: I also think the other thing that the diary reflects

99
00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:44,400
Speaker 3: Buck is he can't claim he wasn't the decider. All

100
00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:47,719
Speaker 3: of life comes down to you have experienced it, no

101
00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:49,960
Speaker 3: matter what you do. Buck, you had to talk about

102
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:54,080
Speaker 3: what the rules are of a condo board. Anybody out

103
00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:57,320
Speaker 3: there that's tried to get something built and you've had

104
00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:01,560
Speaker 3: to go through that that process. The question of who's

105
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:05,440
Speaker 3: the decider is ultimately the thing that matters most. Right,

106
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:08,920
Speaker 3: there's lots of any big company has one hundred and

107
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:12,960
Speaker 3: sixty eight vice presidents of something that really can't do much,

108
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:16,640
Speaker 3: and ultimately it lands on the CEO's desk. Remember Harry

109
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:20,440
Speaker 3: Truman had the great memorable the buck stops here and

110
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:23,279
Speaker 3: on the other side, I think it said, I'm from

111
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:26,640
Speaker 3: Missouri or something like that. The president is the ultimate

112
00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 3: decider in this situation. I think with Fauci's diary, what

113
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:35,760
Speaker 3: you see is he was actually the ultimate decider. And

114
00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:39,360
Speaker 3: all the people out there that are concerned about democracy

115
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:43,680
Speaker 3: and everything else, so many people that are elected decided

116
00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:49,000
Speaker 3: that a random employee inside of our government who was

117
00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:55,120
Speaker 3: taxpayer funded would decide multi trillion dollar outcomes when it

118
00:06:55,200 --> 00:07:01,480
Speaker 3: came to state level elections and sorry to decisions, Fauci

119
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,400
Speaker 3: was the decider. He bragged about New York and California

120
00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:07,640
Speaker 3: shutting down because of his private conversations. Here's another thing,

121
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:12,440
Speaker 3: if you want a positive, Buck, Fauci did allow Ron

122
00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:16,360
Speaker 3: DeSantis to become the most successful governor of the COVID era.

123
00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:19,320
Speaker 3: And I sent out a tweet about this and I

124
00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:21,600
Speaker 3: kind of talk we had him on yesterday. But Buck,

125
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:24,520
Speaker 3: you are a great example of this. I'm in Florida

126
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:27,760
Speaker 3: right now doing the show. Think about what would have

127
00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:34,000
Speaker 3: happened in twenty eighteen if Andrew Gillim gay prostitute, sleeping

128
00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:38,080
Speaker 3: with drug addicted felon. I believe he's a felon. If

129
00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:41,040
Speaker 3: he's not, he's been charged with felon, he's to my understanding,

130
00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:44,800
Speaker 3: Andrew Gillam had been elected in twenty eighteen, buck he

131
00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:48,080
Speaker 3: would have shut down Florida just like New York and California.

132
00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:50,680
Speaker 3: And you can say, well, Georgia and Brian Kemp and

133
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:53,440
Speaker 3: maybe Tennessee and Bill Lee and Greg Abbot in Texas,

134
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:57,480
Speaker 3: maybe they would have stood maybe or maybe without DeSantis

135
00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:01,160
Speaker 3: taking the slings and arrows of shutting, refusing to shut

136
00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 3: down a big populated state, maybe maybe Fauci would have

137
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:12,120
Speaker 3: been even more successful. And so ultimately Florida reaped the benefits.

138
00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:16,600
Speaker 3: And I think DeSantis's tenure in office will redown throughout

139
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:19,800
Speaker 3: the COVID era as the way that we should have

140
00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:23,440
Speaker 3: responded to COVID and Fauci is going to be the

141
00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:26,640
Speaker 3: great villain. So in many ways, DeSantis, and also on

142
00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:29,760
Speaker 3: a smaller level, people like you and me who found

143
00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:32,600
Speaker 3: a big audience by just being sane in a time

144
00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:35,760
Speaker 3: when everybody else lost their minds. Fauci is going to

145
00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:38,560
Speaker 3: be the great villain of COVID. I think increasingly you

146
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:41,480
Speaker 3: can see the Ron DeSantis is of the world, the

147
00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:43,880
Speaker 3: Brian Kemps, the Bill LEAs, the Greg Abbotts, to a

148
00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:47,600
Speaker 3: certain extent, red state governors who said no, they're going

149
00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:50,480
Speaker 3: to continue, and I mean populated red state governors because

150
00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:53,240
Speaker 3: a lot of red state governors in Western states, they

151
00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:57,680
Speaker 3: don't have the same huge collection of population in terms

152
00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:01,400
Speaker 3: of everybody being in a dense area like bigger states would.

153
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,080
Speaker 3: I think you can start to see the first draft

154
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:07,520
Speaker 3: of history and the impact that all of this is

155
00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:10,000
Speaker 3: going to have, and Fauci is not going to come

156
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:10,480
Speaker 3: off well.

157
00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:14,880
Speaker 1: It took a long time, but we did. We did

158
00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:18,920
Speaker 1: get some Fauci accountability, at least on the public record.

159
00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:22,800
Speaker 1: And I really appreciate that Ran Paul stayed on this

160
00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:25,680
Speaker 1: as long as he did and refused to let this

161
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:29,320
Speaker 1: go because, yeah, we could find the data. We can

162
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:32,400
Speaker 1: find all these different things, finding out about what a

163
00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:37,120
Speaker 1: megalomaniac and what a narcissistic fool during a time of

164
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:43,360
Speaker 1: extreme suffering for the country Fauci was that that is,

165
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:49,240
Speaker 1: it's unforgivable and it's also not something that can be dismissed.

166
00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:51,560
Speaker 1: They can dismiss all the they can dismiss. Oh, no,

167
00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:54,000
Speaker 1: one knew it was hard. We tried, we tried, no, no, no.

168
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:55,520
Speaker 1: And I'm not even getting into the fact that he

169
00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:57,079
Speaker 1: knew that it wasn't as deadly. And I mean, there's

170
00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:59,640
Speaker 1: a whole bunch of things. But yeah, that that also

171
00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:02,520
Speaker 1: came out from this. So he lied about everything. They're

172
00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:04,480
Speaker 1: not going to accept that he lied about everything. They're

173
00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:06,920
Speaker 1: going to say, oh, it was tough. He's making judgment calls.

174
00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:10,839
Speaker 1: The fact that he is gushing about the celebrities. Who

175
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:13,160
Speaker 1: why does he have time to talk to celebrities when

176
00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:15,080
Speaker 1: he's the most important. One of the things you'd like

177
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:16,840
Speaker 1: to think that this guy is, you know, in the

178
00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:20,360
Speaker 1: office until two o'clock in the morning, calling every every

179
00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:23,719
Speaker 1: major hospital system and getting the latest data. He's doing

180
00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:26,760
Speaker 1: celebrity zooms. And also, why is it the celebrities have

181
00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:29,360
Speaker 1: access to the top doctor. There's all these things you

182
00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:30,880
Speaker 1: can talk about this, so I thought it was I

183
00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:34,240
Speaker 1: thought it was great that this information came out. I

184
00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:36,800
Speaker 1: would just point out we invited doctor Fauci on the

185
00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:39,440
Speaker 1: program for years. He never had time for us. But

186
00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:42,319
Speaker 1: somehow he could always manage to take the phone call

187
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:45,000
Speaker 1: from Bette Midler or Julia Roberts. Here's something that I

188
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:49,040
Speaker 1: would ask star this, write it down, use it if

189
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:52,480
Speaker 1: you still are hearing people in your life defend Fauci

190
00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:54,840
Speaker 1: Buck Here's to me, this really kind of sums it up.

191
00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:58,120
Speaker 1: Joe Biden gave him a ten year pardon, a ten

192
00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:02,520
Speaker 1: year pardon from base twenty fourteen, all the way through

193
00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:06,120
Speaker 1: what January of twenty five, right when Biden left office

194
00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:10,320
Speaker 1: ten plus years. Everything that Fauci did is protected, even

195
00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:12,280
Speaker 1: though we know that he committed I think a lot

196
00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:16,079
Speaker 1: of crimes during that time, lied about him all those things. Okay,

197
00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:20,560
Speaker 1: he had a ten year pardon, and he still needed

198
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:24,040
Speaker 1: to invoke the Fifth Amendment one hundred and eleven times

199
00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:27,439
Speaker 1: while testifying in front of Congress. Just a simple question

200
00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:31,800
Speaker 1: for everybody out there, has anyone ever heard of someone

201
00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:35,319
Speaker 1: who is completely innocent of all crimes that needs a

202
00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:39,000
Speaker 1: ten year pardon and then, as if that were not enough,

203
00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:43,880
Speaker 1: also needs to invoke his Fifth Amendment rights one hundred

204
00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:47,280
Speaker 1: and eleven times. The ten year pardon by itself was

205
00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:51,520
Speaker 1: not enough. This guy is guilty of sin Fauci, by

206
00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:55,320
Speaker 1: the way, may according to Senator Ran Paul, not entirely

207
00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:57,319
Speaker 1: be protected from accountability. This is cut one.

208
00:11:57,360 --> 00:12:00,840
Speaker 4: Listen, We'll vote to hold him in contemptual that is

209
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:02,920
Speaker 4: a felony, and he can be prosecuted.

210
00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:05,200
Speaker 1: We can't prosecute him, but we refer him to the

211
00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:06,400
Speaker 1: Department of Justice.

212
00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:09,000
Speaker 4: So there is a question, can you plead the Fifth

213
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:12,560
Speaker 4: Amendment when you've been pardoned, if you've already been granted immunity.

214
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:15,520
Speaker 1: How can you be seeking immunity from.

215
00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:18,240
Speaker 4: Self incrimination if you've already been granted immunity. So at

216
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:20,600
Speaker 4: the very end, I ask him the very specific question

217
00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:23,960
Speaker 4: within the parameters of your pardon. This is a question

218
00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:27,040
Speaker 4: within the parameters of your pardon, did you destroy records?

219
00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:29,280
Speaker 4: And who refused to answer that? So a court will

220
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:31,480
Speaker 4: have to decide. The Department of Justice has to be

221
00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:33,600
Speaker 4: convinced to take the case, and then the court will

222
00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:37,199
Speaker 4: have to decide does his Fifth Amendment privilege apply when

223
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:40,000
Speaker 4: he has a pardon. This has been debated across the internet,

224
00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:42,760
Speaker 4: across the country, and we're going to find out an answer.

225
00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:46,120
Speaker 1: Can we have the Honorable Judge Clay on the other

226
00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:49,679
Speaker 1: side of this break give his legal analyze. Yes, the

227
00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:53,280
Speaker 1: Honorable Judge Clay Travis will stand in session and analyze

228
00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:56,040
Speaker 1: that argument that Ran Paul just made. And I promise

229
00:12:56,080 --> 00:13:00,440
Speaker 1: weren't planning this actually a perfect preview for Clay Travis

230
00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:02,880
Speaker 1: Law at dot com. If you are out there right

231

Speaker 1: employment lawyers who are fighting with you as hard as

233
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:14,640
Speaker 1: they can being paid thousands of dollars. Did you see

234
00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:18,080
Speaker 1: yesterday Fauci had at least six attorneys. I was talking

235
00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:18,680
Speaker 1: with buddies.

236
00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:21,400
Speaker 3: They said every single one of them, we agreed had

237
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:24,920
Speaker 3: to cost over one thousand dollars an hour. So Fauci

238
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:28,160
Speaker 3: is paying at least six thousand dollars to those six

239
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:32,640
Speaker 3: attorneys and they're all working hard for him. Do you

240
00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:36,560
Speaker 3: have an attorney working as hard as Fauci did for you?

241
00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:39,720
Speaker 3: Probably not, because it's super expensive. We can help that happen.

Speaker 3: a lot we can get into you with Senator Schmidt,

269
00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:08,320
Speaker 3: but I know you're a big sports fan.

270
00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:10,920
Speaker 1: I don't know how much attention you have paid.

271
00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:15,520
Speaker 3: Buck and I were just talking about Sophie Cunningham coming

272
00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:17,920
Speaker 3: out and saying men shouldn't be in women's sports. I

273
00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:21,320
Speaker 3: know she plays in Indiana, but she was and is

274
00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:24,280
Speaker 3: I think one of the best women's basketball players ever

275
00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:26,640
Speaker 3: from the state of Missouri. So I know a lot

276
00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:29,680
Speaker 3: of your constituents are big fans of hers. Did you

277
00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:33,920
Speaker 3: see that a w NBA owner, you know, minority owner,

278
00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:36,280
Speaker 3: but not the head owner, but one of the owners

279
00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:41,680
Speaker 3: sitting courtside ripped two teenage girls, cursed them out for

280
00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:45,960
Speaker 3: showing up and supporting Sophie Cunningham's stance on men and

281
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:48,480
Speaker 3: women's sports. What's your reaction to that.

282
00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:50,120
Speaker 2: It's very bizarre.

283
00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:52,640
Speaker 6: Yeah, and Sophie Cunningham the pride of a zoo, right,

284
00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:54,880
Speaker 6: she's the all time leading scorer in women's basketball there.

285
00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:58,320
Speaker 6: But and it's reached new levels of fame recently. But

286
00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:01,640
Speaker 6: I don't understand it. You think a sports league would

287
00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:04,360
Speaker 6: want to be growing their audience and they have a

288
00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:09,120
Speaker 6: very marketable person in Sophie Cunningham, and they just can't

289
00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:10,400
Speaker 6: get out of their own way on stuff.

290
00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:11,320
Speaker 2: Like this. I don't get it.

291
00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:15,520
Speaker 6: The WNBA, you know, it just it feels like a

292
00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:19,600
Speaker 6: league that could have a bigger audience if they just got.

293
00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:20,120
Speaker 2: Out of their own way.

294
00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:22,000
Speaker 6: And when you have a co owner of a team,

295
00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:24,880
Speaker 6: I mean, this isn't just some like, you know, drunk

296
00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:26,840
Speaker 6: person at the game. I mean, this is the co

297
00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:30,320
Speaker 6: owner of the team felt so compelled to yell at

298
00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:31,760
Speaker 6: these young girls who should up to the game.

299
00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:33,000
Speaker 2: It's just very strange.

300
00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:36,160
Speaker 3: It's absolutely bonkers. Okay, we got a bunch of stuff

301
00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:39,240
Speaker 3: we can get into with you. I know there is

302
00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:43,760
Speaker 3: an ongoing negotiation surrounding the College Sports Act. You have

303
00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:48,040
Speaker 3: co sponsored this along with Senator Ted Cruz and Senator

304
00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:51,160
Speaker 3: Can't Well, you've been going back and forth with the

305
00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:54,840
Speaker 3: SEC and the Big Ten. What's the absolute latest on

306
00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:57,440
Speaker 3: this bill? Have you gotten a response from the SEC

307
00:16:57,520 --> 00:16:58,560
Speaker 3: and the Big Ten yet?

308
00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:01,440
Speaker 1: Is this going to be able to get on the floor?

309
00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:02,480
Speaker 1: What can you tell us?

310
00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:05,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean we're very timely right now.

311
00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:07,840
Speaker 6: The Big Ten is meeting right now or soon we'll

312
00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:11,280
Speaker 6: be meeting about this. The SEC, they have a call

313
00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:14,760
Speaker 6: with their presidence. Later on this afternoon, I was on

314
00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:16,960
Speaker 6: the phone with Tony Petiti the Commission of the Big

315
00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:19,159
Speaker 6: Ten late last night and with Greg Sankee this morning.

316
00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:22,719
Speaker 2: You know, we want we want to have their support.

317
00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:24,200
Speaker 6: I mean, we've worked really hard, I think, to build

318
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:26,480
Speaker 6: a coalition, not just with those two conferences, but with

319
00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:28,800
Speaker 6: the you know, the Big twelve and the ACC and

320
00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:31,560
Speaker 6: these conferences, but beyond that too. There's a lot in

321
00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:33,840
Speaker 6: here for the student athletes, and a lot has gone

322
00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:36,520
Speaker 6: into this thing to try to address all the major.

323
00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:37,960
Speaker 2: Issues, Clay, that you and I have talked about before.

324
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:38,480
Speaker 2: You've got this.

325
00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:41,000
Speaker 6: You know, you got these eligibile ability issues, You've got

326
00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:43,000
Speaker 6: the governance issue, You've got the one time transfer. All

327
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:44,800
Speaker 6: those sorts of things need to get taken care of.

328
00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:47,600
Speaker 6: The ability to pool media rights if they want to,

329
00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:50,439
Speaker 6: making sure that's purely voluntary and never forced. That was

330
00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:53,000
Speaker 6: a big part of what these negotiations have been about.

331
00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:55,760
Speaker 6: So I would say today is a very important day

332
00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:58,640
Speaker 6: because in order for us to do this, next week,

333
00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:01,960
Speaker 6: which a very important week. Theoretically it could be one

334
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:03,520
Speaker 6: of the last weeks we're up here. I don't know.

335
00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:05,640
Speaker 6: I mean, we could stay into August. I support that,

336
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:08,720
Speaker 6: but next week's a very important week. And if that's

337
00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:10,680
Speaker 6: the case, we got to get it kind of teed

338
00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:13,800
Speaker 6: up today, and so these meetings are really important and

339
00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:17,120
Speaker 6: why these conversations have been very timely and intense.

340
00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:20,280
Speaker 3: Okay, I'll follow up on that. I don't want to

341
00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:26,240
Speaker 3: get you into Petit or Sankee private conversations, but in general,

342
00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:28,960
Speaker 3: are you optimistic that you're going to be able to

343
00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:30,360
Speaker 3: get their sign on at this point?

344
00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:32,160
Speaker 1: I know you still got to wait on the meetings.

345
00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:35,800
Speaker 3: Uh, but how would you assess your optimism level to

346
00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:38,320
Speaker 3: uh right now at this exact moment.

347
00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:42,640
Speaker 2: Uh, this is very much like real time. I've been

348
00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:43,520
Speaker 2: hopeful all along.

349
00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:46,680
Speaker 6: I think that this is Look, there are things in

350
00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:49,959
Speaker 6: this with something that this is this complex and you know,

351
00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:56,080
Speaker 6: literally impacts you know, five hundred thousand student athletes and

352
00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:59,520
Speaker 6: all these institutions that people love and root for, and

353
00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:03,639
Speaker 6: all these kind of issues at play. This bill is

354
00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:06,240
Speaker 6: an effort to try to reach a compromise of all

355
00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:10,520
Speaker 6: the various and competing positions on it. So it's not perfect,

356
00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:12,840
Speaker 6: Like there's things in here that I wish were a

357
00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:15,080
Speaker 6: little bit different. And I'm sure that the conferences, the

358
00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:17,119
Speaker 6: smaller conferences, the bigger conference is the same thing. But

359
00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:19,480
Speaker 6: I do think this it's at a place right now

360
00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:21,920
Speaker 6: where we need to move because it's not going to

361
00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:24,960
Speaker 6: get any better and another year or two of this

362
00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:28,120
Speaker 6: madness we see right now, it's just not sustainable. Even

363
00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:31,120
Speaker 6: the schools that are choosing to compete and have rosters

364
00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:33,680
Speaker 6: that are fifty five or sixty million for football alone,

365
00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:36,000
Speaker 6: which even though there's a cap of twenty and a

366
00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:38,800
Speaker 6: half million, they will freely admit.

367
00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:40,560
Speaker 2: To you that this is not a good situation.

368
00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:43,560
Speaker 6: The constant movement's not good for graduation rates if you're

369
00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:46,800
Speaker 6: transferring four or five times. So I think we need

370
00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:48,880
Speaker 6: to provide some stability, and I think this bill as

371
00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:51,000
Speaker 6: it stands out right now is the best effort to

372
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:52,960
Speaker 6: do it. So I am hopeful, but we're going to

373
00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:54,719
Speaker 6: find out real soon in the next few hours.

374
00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:59,280
Speaker 1: Cenator Schmid, appreciate you being with us. I wanted to

375
00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:01,719
Speaker 1: move our ta if I could do another aspect of

376
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:05,000
Speaker 1: the Senate, and that has to do with the Judiciary

377
00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:09,439
Speaker 1: Committee postponing this postponing a scheduled vote to advance Todd

378
00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:12,159
Speaker 1: Blanche's nomination. So we know there are a couple of

379
00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:18,439
Speaker 1: Republican Senators Cornyn and Tom Tillis who are let's just say,

380
00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:22,600
Speaker 1: if he at this stage of the game, what do

381
00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:24,880
Speaker 1: you think is going to happen here? And what are

382
00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:25,920
Speaker 1: those two guys thinking.

383
00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:29,639
Speaker 6: Well, they're both on the Judiciary Committee, so am I

384
00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:33,119
Speaker 6: and you know they've raised each one of them kind

385
00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:37,280
Speaker 6: of a separate issue. I think Senator Tillis wants Todd

386
00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:41,639
Speaker 6: Blanche to meet with some of the victims I've seen victims.

387
00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:44,640
Speaker 6: I think that was his sort of his ask, and

388
00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:48,840
Speaker 6: I think that's gone relatively well. I have not spoken

389
00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:51,400
Speaker 6: directly with Tom about that, but I feel like that's

390
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:52,040
Speaker 6: moving along.

391
00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:53,040
Speaker 2: Center.

392
00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:57,040
Speaker 6: Cornyn has an issue with this some of the legal

393
00:20:57,280 --> 00:21:01,119
Speaker 6: matters that had been before the Department of Justice related

394
00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:04,199
Speaker 6: to President Trump, and so you know, I'm hopeful that

395
00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:06,719
Speaker 6: they can work that out to the extent that it

396
00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:09,280
Speaker 6: can be worked out. I think Todd is eminently qualified.

397
00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:12,080
Speaker 6: Todd Blanche is eminently qualified. He's done a very good

398
00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:14,480
Speaker 6: job I think of refocusing the Department from the Biden

399
00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:17,639
Speaker 6: years to taking on violent crime. And you look at

400
00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:21,160
Speaker 6: this anti fraud effort that they have across the country

401
00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:23,480
Speaker 6: Minneapolis and California, those are really important things for the

402
00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:25,439
Speaker 6: Department of Justice to be focused on and have an

403
00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:26,160
Speaker 6: attorney General.

404
00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:28,960
Speaker 2: Who's serious. So he's the acting age.

405
00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:31,040
Speaker 6: I mean, no matter what happens, he's going to remain

406
00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:33,320
Speaker 6: the attorney general, the acting attorney General. I just think

407
00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:35,119
Speaker 6: it would be an important thing for us to do

408
00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:37,160
Speaker 6: to move them forward and have him confirmed in front

409
00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:37,800
Speaker 6: of the full Senate.

410
00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:40,520
Speaker 3: So I know, sorry, go ahead, no, I was just

411
00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:43,760
Speaker 3: going to say, building on that question with Buck, President

412
00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:47,280
Speaker 3: Trump said, Hey, if these guys won't get on board,

413
00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:49,879
Speaker 3: we'll just wait. You probably know this. I don't know

414
00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:52,520
Speaker 3: the answer off the top of my head. Let's say

415
00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:56,919
Speaker 3: that the nomination doesn't get confirmed and we wait for

416
00:21:57,000 --> 00:22:00,920
Speaker 3: the election, and then god forbid. Up in a situation

417
00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:05,520
Speaker 3: where Democrats take back control of the Senate, getting anyone

418
00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:09,480
Speaker 3: confirmed then, as you know, becomes very very difficult. How

419
00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:12,880
Speaker 3: long could Todd blanche serve as acting attorney General?

420
00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:15,440
Speaker 1: Is there a limit on that? How would that play out?

421
00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:20,000
Speaker 6: Well, according to recent precedent, I'm gonna I'm gonna blank

422
00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:23,440
Speaker 6: on the cabinet member that Biden had that served out

423
00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:25,920
Speaker 6: as acting throughout the term. I mean, he can basically

424
00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:28,760
Speaker 6: be the acting Attorney general I think for almost all

425
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:29,880
Speaker 6: of the remaining Trump term.

426
00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:31,960
Speaker 2: But I think you know, it's always.

427
00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:34,480
Speaker 6: Better to have, you know, a position like that confirmed

428
00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:36,440
Speaker 6: by the United States Senate. I think that's an important

429
00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:38,320
Speaker 6: thing for us to do because we're in that personnel

430
00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:43,040
Speaker 6: business and he's eminently qualified. No one disputes that. I think,

431
00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:45,280
Speaker 6: you know, a couple of these issues it's centers are addressing.

432
00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:47,320
Speaker 6: There kind of one offs from that and not related

433
00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:49,360
Speaker 6: to as qualifications. And my hope is that they can

434
00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:50,879
Speaker 6: figure all that out and we can move forward on

435
00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:53,280
Speaker 6: Todd Blanche next week. As I mentioned, next week's a

436
00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:57,119
Speaker 6: very important week because September, guys, is going to be

437
00:22:57,960 --> 00:22:59,919
Speaker 6: I think it's going to be very messy. The Democrat

438
00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:03,680
Speaker 6: want to shut the government down, that is on September thirtieth.

439
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:07,080
Speaker 6: I think they view it as a political effort for

440
00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:08,200
Speaker 6: them to shut it down.

441
00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:10,639
Speaker 1: And is this going to be for open border Center.

442
00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:14,560
Speaker 1: They're going to want, you know, no more eyes yet. Yeah, Oh,

443
00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:16,000
Speaker 1: it'll be. I mean, I'm guessing it.

444
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:16,760
Speaker 2: May be the whole thing.

445
00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:18,919
Speaker 6: It may be the whole thing, it may be all

446
00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:21,280
Speaker 6: of government, it may be TSA again, it may you know,

447
00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:22,639
Speaker 6: I don't know what it's going to be, but I

448
00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:24,119
Speaker 6: think it's going to be something.

449
00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:26,440
Speaker 2: I just that's just sort of how I see it.

450
00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:28,840
Speaker 6: Some people are more optimistic, but I've seen what the

451
00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:33,000
Speaker 6: Democrats the game plan is. They're obstructionists and they want

452
00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:34,880
Speaker 6: chaos and they think chaos helps them, And I hope

453
00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:37,879
Speaker 6: the American people view it differently. But we got to

454
00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:39,720
Speaker 6: do everything we can to make sure that doesn't happen

455
00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:40,720
Speaker 6: by September thirtieth.

456
00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:43,720
Speaker 1: I know, if you're not from New York City, maybe

457
00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:46,320
Speaker 1: Missouri doesn't think of itself as like right next door

458
00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:49,160
Speaker 1: to Michigan, but I do because I'm from New York.

459
00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:51,960
Speaker 1: What do you think about the mission? What do you

460
00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:53,720
Speaker 1: think about the Missigan? You're a flyover?

461
00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:55,200
Speaker 2: Come on?

462
00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:57,760
Speaker 1: What do you I mean? You guys are close enough, right,

463
00:23:57,800 --> 00:23:59,880
Speaker 1: you probably have college teams that travel to play each.

464
00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:02,640
Speaker 2: Other hundreds of miles hundreds of miles away.

465
00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:04,960
Speaker 3: But yes, that is a perfect that's a perfect lead

466
00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:07,719
Speaker 3: in for a New York City guy.

467
00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:09,720
Speaker 1: Ready, at least I'm self aware. At least I'm self

468
00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:13,360
Speaker 1: aware about it. So, Michigan Senate race super important, Main

469
00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:17,000
Speaker 1: Senate race super important? Can you just weigh in on

470
00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:20,679
Speaker 1: how you feel about Republicans holding the majority and what

471
00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:22,040
Speaker 1: do you think the key issues are going to be

472
00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:22,960
Speaker 1: in some of those places.

473
00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:26,280
Speaker 6: I see now why you did. There's some symmetry. There

474
00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:27,760
Speaker 6: are all states that start with M.

475
00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:28,840
Speaker 1: There you go.

476
00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:32,840
Speaker 6: So I feel pretty good about the Senate, the map,

477
00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:35,840
Speaker 6: Susan Collins. I mean, they had the Graham Platner experiment

478
00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:39,480
Speaker 6: that totally you know, was as disastrous him in a

479
00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:42,720
Speaker 6: porta potty, I suppose, so that's gone. I think she's

480
00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:46,200
Speaker 6: much better positioned now than where things were a month

481
00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:47,920
Speaker 6: and a half or so ago. I mean, if they

482
00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:51,359
Speaker 6: elect this the guy who or the LSI ed guys

483
00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:54,960
Speaker 6: in the lead in Michigan, that is very much in

484
00:24:55,040 --> 00:24:56,919
Speaker 6: play where a year ago, I don't think a lot

485
00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:58,480
Speaker 6: of people would have thought we were gonna have a

486
00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:01,520
Speaker 6: chance be competitive and maybe win. So I do think

487
00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:05,240
Speaker 6: that is probably by way of contrast for us, these

488
00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:09,480
Speaker 6: radical sort of DSA members is good for us electorally.

489
00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:12,760
Speaker 6: I think it's terrible for the country that the Democrats

490
00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:15,399
Speaker 6: are actually electing these people to be their nominees in

491
00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:17,919
Speaker 6: a general election, you know, because eventually these people are

492
00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:20,040
Speaker 6: gonna they're gonna start winning general elections and it won't

493
00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:23,480
Speaker 6: be limited to you know, New York where you're from,

494
00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:25,920
Speaker 6: right where the craziness and the hammer and sickle wave

495
00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:29,199
Speaker 6: we saw a month ago. So I do think it

496
00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:31,280
Speaker 6: improves our chances if that person's the nominee, but I

497
00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:32,639
Speaker 6: don't think it's good for the country. I think we

498
00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:35,639
Speaker 6: win Maine. New Hampshire's in play for us, which is good.

499
00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:39,120
Speaker 6: North Carolina is going to be tough, and Michigan could

500
00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:39,880
Speaker 6: be in play as well.

501
00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:41,840
Speaker 2: Ohio. I think we're gonna be fine in Ohio.

502
00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:44,879
Speaker 6: Shared Brown is kind of a retread career politician, and

503
00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:46,480
Speaker 6: John houstaid should be okay there.

504
00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:51,000
Speaker 3: I know that you Uh, as Attorney General of Missouri,

505
00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:55,040
Speaker 3: helped to hold Fauci and the Biden administration more accountable

506
00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:58,000
Speaker 3: than almost any attorney general did in the country. I'm

507
00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:01,439
Speaker 3: curious what you thought of Fauci taking Fifth Amendment one

508
00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:05,520
Speaker 3: hundred and eleven times during that hearing yesterday, how you

509
00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:10,280
Speaker 3: would assess any legality of pursuing Fauci might look going

510
00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:13,840
Speaker 3: forward in the wake of that, and just as a

511
00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:17,320
Speaker 3: general context, I know it's been six years, Buck and

512
00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:20,840
Speaker 3: I are still furious. Almost everybody out there listening to

513
00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:24,600
Speaker 3: us right now is still furious over what left wingers

514
00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:27,760
Speaker 3: Fauci led did to us during that time.

515
00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:29,200
Speaker 1: How would you assess.

516
00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:30,919
Speaker 3: Where we are right now, what your thoughts were on

517
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:33,160
Speaker 3: that hearing, and where we might go going forward.

518
00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:36,720
Speaker 6: I'm with you, guys. I think for me, when I

519
00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:40,239
Speaker 6: was Attorney General in that time, it was a It

520
00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:43,760
Speaker 6: opened up my eyes to what the left was capable

521
00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:45,399
Speaker 6: of if they had a little bit of power, or

522
00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:48,800
Speaker 6: just an excuse like that bulldozing sand, you know, into

523
00:26:48,840 --> 00:26:53,520
Speaker 6: these skate parks, police tape around playgrounds, forcing the masking

524
00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:54,840
Speaker 6: of five year olds in school.

525
00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:56,280
Speaker 2: It's why we sued the school districts.

526
00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:58,120
Speaker 6: It's why we sued the Bide administration over the shot

527
00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:01,080
Speaker 6: and all those sorts of things. I think we should

528
00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:03,600
Speaker 6: never forget what that looked like and what that actually was.

529
00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:06,879
Speaker 6: And Fauci was the crown prince of all that, with

530
00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:09,520
Speaker 6: his candles and his bobble heads, right. I think it's

531
00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:12,679
Speaker 6: it reminded me. I took his deposition in the Missouri

532
00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:15,040
Speaker 6: versus Biden lawsuit. He sat across the table as smug

533
00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:17,879
Speaker 6: as could be, kind of like he was yesterday. He

534
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:19,680
Speaker 6: had a little he had less to say yesterday because

535
00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:20,919
Speaker 6: he was taking the Fifth Amendment. But I think in

536
00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:23,080
Speaker 6: our deposition of him, he said, I don't recall like

537
00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:25,399
Speaker 6: one hundred and seventy times as well.

538
00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:27,840
Speaker 2: So this guy who proclaimed to be.

539
00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:31,840
Speaker 6: The science and this all knowing, you know, expert, suddenly

540
00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:33,359
Speaker 6: doesn't have a whole lot to say now because I

541
00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:35,720
Speaker 6: think he knows he's been exposed to some legal jeopardy.

542
00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:39,080
Speaker 6: Regardless of the autopen pardon, there could be state issues

543
00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:41,400
Speaker 6: out there we're going to see. But this guy needs

544
00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:44,320
Speaker 6: to be held accountable. This is what abuse looks like.

545
00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:47,600
Speaker 6: This is what the other ing of our minute or

546
00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:50,320
Speaker 6: you know, fellow countrymen was alike. In that era, you

547
00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:53,159
Speaker 6: couldn't question anything. The government was coming after you to

548
00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:56,159
Speaker 6: censor you with big tech giants. This was Orwellian and

549
00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:58,719
Speaker 6: it happened, and we can't memory hold it. I'm with you,

550
00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:01,520
Speaker 6: like a normal person is still pissed about this thing.

551
00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:03,679
Speaker 6: It should be and Faucu was the face of it.

552
00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:06,439
Speaker 6: So I hope there's there's some accountability. We did our

553
00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:08,720
Speaker 6: best in my time as AG. Hopefully some other ags

554
00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:11,120
Speaker 6: or other people can can take up the charge here

555
00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:13,640
Speaker 6: because it was just insulting to see him sit there

556
00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:15,800
Speaker 6: yesterday and take the fifth on everything.

557
00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:19,560
Speaker 1: Senator Schmidt, great stuff, sir, thank you so much.

558
00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:21,720

Speaker 7: fantastic podcast.

593
00:29:58,280 --> 00:29:59,880
Speaker 1: Highly recommend you won't check it out on the cl

594
00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:03,760
Speaker 1: podcast network. Mister Gradosky, so many things to talk to

595
00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:08,120
Speaker 1: you about. Let's start with mass Let's start with mass immigration.

596
00:30:08,280 --> 00:30:13,600
Speaker 1: Have you seen this situation in the footage going viral?

597
00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:15,920
Speaker 1: I know we don't talk about Spain very much, but

598
00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:19,600
Speaker 1: uh is it pronounce sayuta? I don't know you can

599
00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:23,240
Speaker 1: know how to pronounce it in Morocco, where you have

600
00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:28,200
Speaker 1: the African migrants just completely overwhelming. There's this little Spanish

601
00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:31,080
Speaker 1: enclave and they're just they're just like running through the

602
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:35,200
Speaker 1: fence basically to get onto what is technically Spanish territory.

603
00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:40,160
Speaker 1: After the Spanish Prime minister, I think, signed an amnesty

604
00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:42,160
Speaker 1: for a million people that are in the country illegally.

605
00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:44,680
Speaker 1: So things are have you seen this? Things are getting

606
00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:45,400
Speaker 1: crazy over there.

607
00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:49,760
Speaker 8: Yeah, it was as Pedro Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez. Originally

608
00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:52,560
Speaker 8: he sets me for five hundred thousand and then it

609
00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:55,400
Speaker 8: was a million. Now it's estimated to be three million,

610
00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:57,920
Speaker 8: which Spain is not a large country. Three million is

611
00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:00,880
Speaker 8: about eight percent of the population, so it is a

612
00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:03,520
Speaker 8: tremendous amnesty. And bigger problem is that it's part of

613
00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:05,520
Speaker 8: Spain is part of the Shanngen Agreement, which means that

614
00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:07,920
Speaker 8: if you are a resident of Spain and legally there,

615
00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:10,280
Speaker 8: you can go to any other country in the EU

616
00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:13,520
Speaker 8: without a passport. So we're talking that possibly of millions

617
00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:15,200
Speaker 8: of people going not only to Italy, but end up

618
00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:19,000
Speaker 8: in Germany and Ireland and Sweden, quite like it happened

619
00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:21,600
Speaker 8: back in twenty fifteen. So not only is this causing

620
00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:24,280
Speaker 8: backlash in his own country, but Georgia Maloney and other

621
00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:27,800
Speaker 8: prime ministers around Europe are pushing back against his amnesty plan.

622
00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:34,320
Speaker 3: Ryan, Yeah, that clip is what will happen if Democrats

623
00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:36,640
Speaker 3: in back up in power again. It looks like when

624
00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:39,080
Speaker 3: Bill Malugin was down at Eagle Pass, Texas and we

625
00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:41,680
Speaker 3: saw tens of thousands of people what I would point out, Ryan,

626
00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:44,000
Speaker 3: I'm sure you saw it too. I think I saw

627
00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:48,920
Speaker 3: Matt Sorter among others, posting about this. Everybody coming in

628
00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:52,480
Speaker 3: is young and male. People like say, oh, this is

629
00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:54,800
Speaker 3: about trying to take care of families. There's no women,

630
00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:57,440
Speaker 3: there's no children storming across the border there right now.

631
00:31:57,480 --> 00:32:01,840
Speaker 3: It's all military age males. And I do think that's

632
00:32:01,880 --> 00:32:06,000
Speaker 3: worth reiterating again and again. Overwhelmingly, we are not seeing

633
00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:08,400
Speaker 3: families come. We're seeing young men come.

634
00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:13,480
Speaker 1: When you look, Ryan, let's go into the current political environment. Tuesday.

635
00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:17,400
Speaker 3: I was at a fundraiser last night for Jimmy patronis

636
00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:21,600
Speaker 3: awesome guy represents the Florida first District, basically right across

637
00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:24,320
Speaker 3: the street. He was having a fundraiser doing great work.

638
00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:27,600
Speaker 3: One of the guys there is working on the Michigan

639
00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:30,080
Speaker 3: Senate campaign. My wife is from Michigan. This is one

640
00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:32,120
Speaker 3: that we've talked about a lot on this program. We

641
00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:35,360
Speaker 3: have followed it closely. They had their final debate. Tuesday

642
00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:37,960
Speaker 3: is the primary. We will be talking about a great deal.

643
00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:42,080
Speaker 3: Abdul l Sayed is pulling away from Hailey Stevens and

644
00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:45,560
Speaker 3: appears to be a substantial favorite going into the primary

645
00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:49,160
Speaker 3: on Tuesday. Do you buy if l Sayed wins that

646
00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:52,040
Speaker 3: Mike Rodgers, who is going to be the Republican nominee,

647
00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:54,760
Speaker 3: has a very good chance to win. How does that

648
00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:57,560
Speaker 3: change your calculus. We'll dive into some other parts of

649
00:32:57,600 --> 00:32:59,920
Speaker 3: the Senate maybe a bit later in the conversation here,

650
00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:02,520
Speaker 3: but tell me about Michigan with the primary Tuesday.

651
00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:06,000
Speaker 8: Yeah, Haley Stevens is fake accent with a stick it

652
00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:08,600
Speaker 8: to them, is not really getting what people thought that would.

653
00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:11,600
Speaker 8: Here's the problem with Haley Stephens. It's not just polling.

654
00:33:11,680 --> 00:33:14,520
Speaker 8: Early voting data is showing that white, college educated and

655
00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:18,000
Speaker 8: Muslim populations in the state are voting at much higher

656
00:33:18,040 --> 00:33:21,479
Speaker 8: percentages than her basis, which is predominantly black areas in

657
00:33:21,520 --> 00:33:25,960
Speaker 8: the Detroit area. Detroit's black areas have had substantially lower turnouts,

658
00:33:25,960 --> 00:33:28,400
Speaker 8: so are the rural areas. And the bigger problem with

659
00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:31,240
Speaker 8: Michigan with Democrats period is that the white working class

660
00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:34,640
Speaker 8: people who would normally back at Haley Stevens are all Republicans. Now,

661
00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:40,440
Speaker 8: Mike Rogers is probably polling close to even against Abdullah Sayet.

662
00:33:40,440 --> 00:33:44,000
Speaker 8: He's a very extreme candidate. He's campaigning with the podcaster

663
00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:48,640
Speaker 8: Hassan Piker, who said that Americans deserve nine to eleven. However,

664
00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:51,600
Speaker 8: it is a bad year for Republicans. It is a

665
00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:54,440
Speaker 8: year in a state that is fifty to fifty voted

666
00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:57,480
Speaker 8: a little more for Trump than for Kamalaw. It is

667
00:33:57,960 --> 00:34:00,200
Speaker 8: looking like a D plus seven, D plus eight year.

668
00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:02,920
Speaker 8: The generic ballot is leaving, leaving the train and is

669
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:05,920
Speaker 8: really sticking to Democrats. So in an environment like that,

670
00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:09,920
Speaker 8: even bad candidates can win. Even Francesca Haung, who is,

671
00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:13,399
Speaker 8: you know, nuts beyond belief over in Wisconsin, she could

672
00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:16,480
Speaker 8: probably win in an environment like this. It's just becoming

673
00:34:16,719 --> 00:34:18,840
Speaker 8: it's looking more and more like a wave for Democrat

674
00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:19,399
Speaker 8: kind of year.

675
00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:24,680
Speaker 1: So, Ran, what are some of the variables between now

676
00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:26,960
Speaker 1: and election day that you feel like you're going to

677
00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:30,319
Speaker 1: be the primary determinants about whether Republicans hold the House?

678
00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:33,200
Speaker 1: And Republicans hold the Senate. What are some of the

679
00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:36,439
Speaker 1: prime you know, the primary levers that depending on which

680
00:34:36,440 --> 00:34:40,279
Speaker 1: way they go, we're going to either be celebrating or

681
00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:41,160
Speaker 1: having a rough one.

682
00:34:42,239 --> 00:34:44,719
Speaker 8: Well, you know, we talked several weeks or several months

683
00:34:44,760 --> 00:34:46,800
Speaker 8: ago at this point about the Iran war and oil

684
00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:49,319
Speaker 8: prices and food prices, and we all said, if it

685
00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:52,359
Speaker 8: goes down by the end of summer, by midsummer, we'll

686
00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:54,800
Speaker 8: be Republicans will be fine. And when it started dipping

687
00:34:54,840 --> 00:34:58,759
Speaker 8: during the negotiations, Republican numbers did substantially improve. Republicans are

688
00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:01,560
Speaker 8: doing better than Trump's doing. Trump'son close to George W.

689
00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:04,680
Speaker 8: Bush territory as far as Poland goes. However, we're at

690
00:35:04,719 --> 00:35:06,839
Speaker 8: the end of summer now. People kids are going back

691
00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:09,600
Speaker 8: to school in the South like next week, and oil

692
00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:13,240
Speaker 8: prices are back up, and Republican Democrats numbers are starting

693
00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:15,000
Speaker 8: to search. At the end of the day, it comes

694
00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:17,800
Speaker 8: down to food prices, oil prices, and at the Iran

695
00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:19,800
Speaker 8: war is wrapped up or not. I mean, it's really

696
00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:22,240
Speaker 8: just that is the margin in a lot of states

697
00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:24,480
Speaker 8: where it's going to matter. A lot of people defy

698
00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:28,000
Speaker 8: political gravity with people like Susan Collins and others. Brian Fitzpatrick,

699
00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:30,560
Speaker 8: a congressman in Pennsylvania. If you're looking at a D

700
00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:32,319
Speaker 8: plus seven D plus eight year, it's going to be

701
00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:36,160
Speaker 8: almost impossible for any of these people who defy gravity,

702
00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:39,200
Speaker 8: who win in Democrats states and districts, to hold on.

703
00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:43,600
Speaker 3: Okay, so let's pretend that it's going to be hard.

704
00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:48,040
Speaker 3: Let's just say acknowledge Michigan, New Hampshire, Georgia, which are

705
00:35:48,080 --> 00:35:50,719
Speaker 3: probably Ryan. You can disagree with me if you would

706
00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:54,000
Speaker 3: point to any other place, probably the only three states

707
00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:56,560
Speaker 3: where Republicans could say, hey, we have a chance of

708
00:35:56,640 --> 00:35:59,880
Speaker 3: taking a Democrat seat. That's where Democrats hold it right now.

709
00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:02,920
Speaker 3: If none of those happened, right, we hope they do.

710
00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:04,920
Speaker 3: But if none of those were to happen, then you

711
00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:08,280
Speaker 3: flip back to Okay, what about Texas?

712
00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:09,440
Speaker 1: What about Iowa?

713
00:36:09,680 --> 00:36:12,160
Speaker 3: What about you know, you start to run through a

714
00:36:12,200 --> 00:36:17,000
Speaker 3: bunch of these other Alaska battleground states, Ohio, how confident

715
00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:21,040
Speaker 3: are you that Republicans can get to at least fifty That.

716
00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:22,480
Speaker 1: Would mean lose three.

717
00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:25,080
Speaker 3: You can afford to lose three and still have the

718
00:36:25,120 --> 00:36:28,080
Speaker 3: tie break for you lose control of the Senate. What's

719
00:36:28,120 --> 00:36:30,640
Speaker 3: going to happen there. How do you feel about Republican

720
00:36:30,719 --> 00:36:31,360
Speaker 3: held seats.

721
00:36:32,120 --> 00:36:34,600
Speaker 8: Well, the first you have a Collins, who is who's

722
00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:38,200
Speaker 8: defied gravity to mention in May two? Yeah, no notice, Okay,

723
00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:41,000
Speaker 8: she is the one who's in a Democrat seat. She's

724
00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:44,680
Speaker 8: very endangered, but she is extremely popular among independents and

725
00:36:44,760 --> 00:36:47,719
Speaker 8: some Democratic women. She's in a tough battle this year though.

726
00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:50,480
Speaker 8: North Carolina is the other really you know important one.

727
00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:54,840
Speaker 8: Former Governor Roy Cooper is beating Michael Wattley, the Republican

728
00:36:54,920 --> 00:36:57,879
Speaker 8: backing candidate, by nine points in the latest Fox News poll.

729
00:36:58,320 --> 00:37:00,920
Speaker 8: The good thing of Republicans after the two states, which

730
00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:03,080
Speaker 8: is one a Democrat wants a swing state, you get

731
00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:05,400
Speaker 8: to states where Trump won all by double digits. So

732
00:37:05,520 --> 00:37:08,880
Speaker 8: the ability to win past those two states becomes harder

733
00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:11,960
Speaker 8: and harder and harder for Democrats. That's the one key

734
00:37:12,040 --> 00:37:14,719
Speaker 8: thing when you mentioned Texas. If you look at where

735
00:37:14,719 --> 00:37:17,960
Speaker 8: people are reserving cash reserves for ads almost no. I

736
00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:21,160
Speaker 8: think seven hundred thousand run for Democrats in Texas and

737
00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:24,120
Speaker 8: none one for Republicans in Texas. There's multiple reasons for this.

738
00:37:24,239 --> 00:37:28,000
Speaker 8: I have a little insight information. You know, Republicans in

739
00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:31,840
Speaker 8: the Senate really, allegedly really wanted John Cornyn to be

740
00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:33,960
Speaker 8: the nominee. They did not want Ken Pax to be

741
00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:37,200
Speaker 8: the nominee, and they basically told the Trump's team in

742
00:37:37,239 --> 00:37:39,799
Speaker 8: the White House or in the political side, saying, if

743
00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:42,520
Speaker 8: he's a nominee, he's all your problem. We're not taking it.

744
00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:46,000
Speaker 8: But the other problem is that Texas is twenty media markets.

745
00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:48,879
Speaker 8: It's the biggest media market in the entire country. So

746
00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:52,280
Speaker 8: to invest in Texas requires more money than any other states,

747
00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:54,680
Speaker 8: and it's a hard lift for Democrats. That's why they

748
00:37:54,680 --> 00:37:57,719
Speaker 8: would rather invest in Iowa and Ohio, in Alaska and

749
00:37:57,760 --> 00:38:00,920
Speaker 8: other places than invest in Texas. It's just really expensive

750
00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:04,000
Speaker 8: as far as Iowa, Ohio and Alaska goes. Ohio is

751
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:06,000
Speaker 8: a tough state. But John, you say, is a fairly

752
00:38:06,080 --> 00:38:10,520
Speaker 8: unknown lieutenant governor relatively to Sherid Brown, who's the Democrat nominee,

753
00:38:10,560 --> 00:38:13,960
Speaker 8: former Senator, Iowa looks like it's turning more and more

754
00:38:13,960 --> 00:38:17,560
Speaker 8: towards Republicans favor Alaska. The Democrat Mary Patola from her

755
00:38:17,600 --> 00:38:20,759
Speaker 8: congressman who lost, she has an immense burn rate. She's

756
00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:22,640
Speaker 8: raising a lot of money, but she's blowing through it

757
00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:25,360
Speaker 8: very very early. So I feel decently. Okay about Alaska

758
00:38:25,600 --> 00:38:28,920
Speaker 8: given how much money she's blowing early on, Ohio is

759
00:38:28,960 --> 00:38:30,759
Speaker 8: the one that I would probably be looking at. But

760
00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:32,640
Speaker 8: in that case it would probably look like a fifty

761
00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:35,120
Speaker 8: one to forty nine map for Republicans.

762
00:38:36,160 --> 00:38:41,120
Speaker 1: Worst case scenario, anything Ryan that you're looking at. In

763
00:38:41,239 --> 00:38:46,880
Speaker 1: terms of Democrats sort of shifting focus right now to

764
00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:51,399
Speaker 1: reposition themselves based on the latest or you know, where

765
00:38:51,440 --> 00:38:54,040
Speaker 1: are they going in heaviest and hardest thinking they actually

766
00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:56,360
Speaker 1: have a real shot at a pickup?

767
00:38:57,480 --> 00:38:59,799
Speaker 8: Well, I mean, Democrats are kind of playing it more

768
00:38:59,840 --> 00:39:01,920
Speaker 8: so than usual. The one thing that they're doing is

769
00:39:02,040 --> 00:39:05,600
Speaker 8: very interesting is the Democratic nominees have dropped out of

770
00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:08,920
Speaker 8: the Nebraska and Idaho Senate race. And what is happening

771
00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:11,600
Speaker 8: is two independents who are saying, we don't know who

772
00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:14,000
Speaker 8: are going to caucus with. They're likely going to caucus

773
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:17,040
Speaker 8: with Democrats. They are the official nominees, and they're trying

774
00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:20,239
Speaker 8: to run candidates in red states who don't have the

775
00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:23,239
Speaker 8: stink of the Democratic brand on them to make these

776
00:39:23,360 --> 00:39:25,960
Speaker 8: races competitive. I mean, over an Idaho senator race is

777
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:28,719
Speaker 8: an older man, he is over eighty years old. He's

778
00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:31,080
Speaker 8: running for his I think fourth term in the Senate,

779
00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:34,120
Speaker 8: and you know, there's a lot of questions over whether

780
00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:37,040
Speaker 8: he should be running at this age. His poll numbers

781
00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:39,359
Speaker 8: have tied in substantially in some polls, but who knows.

782
00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:41,920
Speaker 8: It is Idaho. It is a very very red state.

783
00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:45,440
Speaker 8: That's their game plan though, is to run these independent

784
00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:48,240
Speaker 8: candidates in these very red states, hoping they can narrow

785
00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:50,160
Speaker 8: it as long as there's no Democrat on the ballot.

786
00:39:50,200 --> 00:39:52,240
Speaker 8: So we'll see if it plays out well.

787
00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:55,560
Speaker 1: So, Ryan, you might have noticed from well one, we're

788
00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:57,880
Speaker 1: friends and we just talk randomly, but also from my

789
00:39:58,040 --> 00:40:02,279
Speaker 1: ex account and some recent discussions on the show, I

790
00:40:02,320 --> 00:40:05,520
Speaker 1: am paying attention to the fact that, and I really

791
00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:07,480
Speaker 1: I'm ready to tell people right now please do not

792
00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:11,000
Speaker 1: email me and say don't complain about the weather. The

793
00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:13,840
Speaker 1: weather hasn't gotten one hundred percent worse for the airlines

794
00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:16,960
Speaker 1: in the last two years, but three hour plus delays have.

795
00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:20,120
Speaker 1: And this is something we have told would be addressed

796
00:40:20,160 --> 00:40:23,000
Speaker 1: and would get better. We were all mocking Buddha Judge

797
00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:26,879
Speaker 1: for being mia and things being rough. We were told

798
00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:28,799
Speaker 1: they were going to be fixed. They have not been

799
00:40:28,840 --> 00:40:33,240
Speaker 1: fixed even a little bit. And it's a big annoying

800
00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:35,680
Speaker 1: pain in the butt for millions of people who fly,

801
00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:38,760
Speaker 1: especially if you fly on a regular basis. I had

802
00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:43,600
Speaker 1: a super irritating flight story recently. I've heard a lot

803
00:40:43,640 --> 00:40:45,399
Speaker 1: of other people. You had one that you wanted to share,

804
00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:47,120
Speaker 1: But can you all at the end of it, can

805
00:40:47,200 --> 00:40:50,239
Speaker 1: you also tell us I think it's fair to say

806
00:40:50,239 --> 00:40:52,440
Speaker 1: that the Trump administration should focus and do more on this,

807
00:40:52,560 --> 00:40:53,360
Speaker 1: But go ahead.

808
00:40:54,120 --> 00:40:57,120
Speaker 8: I had to fly from New Orleans to Harrisburg, not

809
00:40:57,200 --> 00:40:59,480
Speaker 8: an easy flight with one connecting thing. I land in

810
00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:03,719
Speaker 8: Detroit four hour delay. The woman taking the tickets at

811
00:41:03,800 --> 00:41:06,520
Speaker 8: the fourth hour gives this long, rambling speech on the

812
00:41:06,520 --> 00:41:08,799
Speaker 8: microphone and says, I'm sorry, y'all, I don't even know

813
00:41:08,800 --> 00:41:11,359
Speaker 8: where I am right now. I'm so tired. I pray

814
00:41:11,440 --> 00:41:13,919
Speaker 8: for me as I pray for you. Something you do

815
00:41:13,960 --> 00:41:17,200
Speaker 8: not want to hear before you get on a plane.

816
00:41:17,400 --> 00:41:20,239
Speaker 8: Get to Parisburg. I to fly the next day. I

817
00:41:20,360 --> 00:41:24,080
Speaker 8: ended up driving across three different states to find a

818
00:41:24,160 --> 00:41:28,400
Speaker 8: plane with a direct flight because my other flight was canceled. Overall,

819
00:41:28,680 --> 00:41:33,520
Speaker 8: six flights, five states, sixty hours of insanity, only for

820
00:41:33,560 --> 00:41:35,640
Speaker 8: the last flight to be canceled, and had to sleep

821
00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:38,880
Speaker 8: over in a different hotel to fly out the next morning.

822
00:41:39,200 --> 00:41:42,799
Speaker 8: It costs over one thousand dollars because being in such

823
00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:45,879
Speaker 8: a small place at the time, The next available flight

824
00:41:46,040 --> 00:41:50,279
Speaker 8: was like two days later. It was truly insane, incredibly frustrating.

825
00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:52,320
Speaker 8: There was a bit of a weather problem, but I'm sorry,

826
00:41:52,360 --> 00:41:56,720
Speaker 8: it's not that bad. There has been weather before and

827
00:41:56,719 --> 00:41:58,759
Speaker 8: and air American Airlines was shut down because of the

828
00:41:58,800 --> 00:42:01,560
Speaker 8: it problem. But the fact that you have to wait

829
00:42:01,560 --> 00:42:04,319
Speaker 8: in the airport for four hours sometimes on to find out, Hey,

830
00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:07,880
Speaker 8: your flight's canceled is infuriating. Just tell me ahead of

831
00:42:07,880 --> 00:42:09,840
Speaker 8: time so I can make plans. But there was no

832
00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:14,319
Speaker 8: There's just lack of communication and understaffing that is insane

833
00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:17,120
Speaker 8: in the airlines right now. Because airlines are banks who

834
00:42:17,160 --> 00:42:19,040
Speaker 8: own planes. They're not actually yes.

835
00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:21,360
Speaker 1: They're credit card company. They're credit card companies with planes.

836
00:42:21,400 --> 00:42:21,879
Speaker 1: This is true.

837
00:42:22,320 --> 00:42:24,560
Speaker 3: This is why I mean, I hate to hear that.

838
00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:28,040
Speaker 3: My wife gets on me. Sometimes I won't do connecting flights.

839
00:42:28,719 --> 00:42:32,279
Speaker 3: I will at this point because travel has gotten so frustrating.

840
00:42:32,440 --> 00:42:35,320
Speaker 3: If you can't I'm in Nashville, but I will drive

841
00:42:35,440 --> 00:42:38,880
Speaker 3: to an airport to do a connecting flight because it

842
00:42:38,960 --> 00:42:41,719
Speaker 3: feels like if you're relying on two flights to try

843
00:42:41,719 --> 00:42:45,279
Speaker 3: to get you anywhere. It's basically a fool's errand at

844
00:42:45,280 --> 00:42:48,359
Speaker 3: this point in time to even attempt if I can't

845
00:42:48,440 --> 00:42:51,520
Speaker 3: go there direct, I going. And I feel like many

846
00:42:51,560 --> 00:42:54,560
Speaker 3: of you out there feel that way too as well,

847
00:42:54,600 --> 00:42:56,879
Speaker 3: because at least if you're stuck in a city where

848
00:42:56,920 --> 00:42:59,239
Speaker 3: you're trying to go to or a city that you

849
00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:02,400
Speaker 3: live in, you can go back. If you're stuck in Midpoint,

850
00:43:03,120 --> 00:43:05,840
Speaker 3: you're just I mean, you're totally handcuffed by everything.

851
00:43:06,600 --> 00:43:08,200
Speaker 8: And in a small city, a lot of these are

852
00:43:08,239 --> 00:43:10,279
Speaker 8: regional areas. If you're stuck in a regional area, you

853
00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:13,239
Speaker 8: don't know anybody places close at five six o'clock, and

854
00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:15,319
Speaker 8: that was the Saint Harrisburg. Yeah, I was like, I

855
00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:17,520
Speaker 8: have to drive. I end up driving to Washington. I

856
00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:20,960
Speaker 8: drove to Virginia, Washington and end up in Baltimore. I mean,

857
00:43:20,960 --> 00:43:24,080
Speaker 8: it was insane trying to get a flight that I

858
00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:26,120
Speaker 8: have to drive four hours to find a flight for

859
00:43:26,200 --> 00:43:29,200
Speaker 8: two I mean, but that's the state. And anyone who flies.

860
00:43:29,560 --> 00:43:30,520
Speaker 8: I have to fly for work.

861
00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:31,120
Speaker 1: I just have to.

862
00:43:31,200 --> 00:43:34,000
Speaker 8: There's no other option to put people in that kind

863
00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:37,160
Speaker 8: of position or on a regular basis, you know, it

864
00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:39,360
Speaker 8: makes it easily of life just horrible, everybody.

865
00:43:39,880 --> 00:43:42,080
Speaker 1: Let's get to the thirty thousand or the fifty thousand

866
00:43:42,120 --> 00:43:44,480
Speaker 1: foot view. Is it the worst it's ever been in

867
00:43:44,520 --> 00:43:46,520
Speaker 1: your opinion, because I think that flying is now the

868
00:43:46,560 --> 00:43:49,000
Speaker 1: worst that it has ever been in my lifetime, you know,

869
00:43:49,040 --> 00:43:50,919
Speaker 1: with the exception of like some you know, like post

870
00:43:51,000 --> 00:43:52,440
Speaker 1: nine to eleven or something, right, But I mean, I

871
00:43:52,480 --> 00:43:54,239
Speaker 1: think flying is now the worst.

872
00:43:54,920 --> 00:43:57,560
Speaker 8: Yeah, two years ago, I used to fly sixty two

873
00:43:57,640 --> 00:43:59,920
Speaker 8: three four years of sixty times a year I would fly.

874
00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:03,320
Speaker 8: I flew all the time. It is way significantly worse,

875
00:44:03,360 --> 00:44:06,480
Speaker 8: and it is hours delays and cancelations and no one

876
00:44:06,520 --> 00:44:09,000
Speaker 8: communicates and everything with you. The communication part is what

877
00:44:09,080 --> 00:44:11,959
Speaker 8: frustrates me the most. I'm sorry you didn't just find

878
00:44:11,960 --> 00:44:14,759
Speaker 8: out that your flight's canceled fifteen minutes before, after waiting

879
00:44:14,760 --> 00:44:15,080
Speaker 8: four hours.

880
00:44:15,120 --> 00:44:17,560
Speaker 1: I think, Well, what upsets me too is some people

881
00:44:17,640 --> 00:44:20,000
Speaker 1: like to sort of be the great defenders of the

882
00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:23,080
Speaker 1: airlines all the time, as if I don't know that. Yeah,

883
00:44:23,120 --> 00:44:25,120
Speaker 1: of course you can't fly into thunderstorm like I'm not

884
00:44:25,120 --> 00:44:28,400
Speaker 1: talking about that. There are a lot of games schedule

885
00:44:28,480 --> 00:44:33,640
Speaker 1: padding on chronic understaffing as a cost cutting measure, you know,

886
00:44:33,719 --> 00:44:36,080
Speaker 1: over selling of seats and all these things. These are

887
00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:39,759
Speaker 1: choices the airlines make at the expensive passengers, and people say, well,

888
00:44:39,760 --> 00:44:42,200
Speaker 1: this is what the market will decide. Taxpayers have bailed

889
00:44:42,200 --> 00:44:45,480
Speaker 1: out the airlines twice in the last twenty five years. Okay,

890
00:44:45,600 --> 00:44:48,480
Speaker 1: they wouldn't even exist without the taxpayer, and they're heavily

891
00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:51,120
Speaker 1: regulated by the federal government as it is, so I

892
00:44:51,160 --> 00:44:52,880
Speaker 1: feel like they're not allowed to just punish people, or

893
00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:54,920
Speaker 1: they shouldn't be allowed to just punish people all the time.

894
00:44:55,280 --> 00:44:57,160
Speaker 1: But that's where I am. I don't know. I'm trying

895
00:44:57,200 --> 00:44:59,080
Speaker 1: to get a movement going here, Ryan, I'm trying to

896
00:44:59,080 --> 00:45:02,359
Speaker 1: find somebody who cares, who's in charge, and as far.

897
00:45:02,280 --> 00:45:03,800
Speaker 8: As the mark goes, this is not opening up a

898
00:45:03,840 --> 00:45:06,160
Speaker 8: lemonade stand. It's not like any person can just open

899
00:45:06,239 --> 00:45:08,560
Speaker 8: up an airline like, oh, it's so simple. No, it

900
00:45:08,640 --> 00:45:11,880
Speaker 8: is an extremely expensive, over heavily regulated industry.

901
00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:14,240
Speaker 2: Very few, very few people.

902
00:45:14,040 --> 00:45:14,359
Speaker 1: Get to it.

903
00:45:14,360 --> 00:45:16,800
Speaker 8: It's both it's basically six companies that run the entire

904
00:45:17,080 --> 00:45:20,440
Speaker 8: United States airline industry. They should make it, someone should

905
00:45:20,480 --> 00:45:23,480
Speaker 8: make it a little bit easier because it is incredibly frustrating.

906
00:45:23,520 --> 00:45:26,080
Speaker 8: Shout out to Southwest, who's bailed me out in the

907
00:45:26,120 --> 00:45:29,279
Speaker 8: Baltimore situation. But it was a nightmare of Ji.

908
00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:32,480
Speaker 1: Why Southwest fly Southwest everywhere? Buck?

909
00:45:32,520 --> 00:45:35,239
Speaker 3: Here's and Ryan, something that I think factors in here.

910
00:45:35,520 --> 00:45:38,840
Speaker 3: You know why there isn't a lot of pressure because

911
00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:43,320
Speaker 3: the wealthier you are, the less likely you fly commercial airlines.

912
00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:47,680
Speaker 3: So oftentimes it's wealthy people with major connections who get

913
00:45:48,000 --> 00:45:51,319
Speaker 3: major connections to the political universe. They get so frustrated

914
00:45:51,360 --> 00:45:54,720
Speaker 3: over something that they hold political pressure. If you're super wealthy,

915
00:45:54,719 --> 00:45:58,759
Speaker 3: you don't fly commercial, you're hopping on your private peasants.

916
00:45:58,880 --> 00:46:01,200
Speaker 1: The peasants like us are just allowed to suffer out there,

917
00:46:01,280 --> 00:46:01,959
Speaker 1: Ryan State.

918
00:46:02,080 --> 00:46:05,360
Speaker 8: But Congress does fly commercial. That's the crazy thing. Congressman

919
00:46:05,440 --> 00:46:09,080
Speaker 8: almost always fly commercial and oftentimes fly economy, which is

920
00:46:09,280 --> 00:46:11,520
Speaker 8: why I don't understand they don't do anything about this.

921
00:46:11,840 --> 00:46:13,319
Speaker 1: Well, they do sometimes.

922
00:46:13,400 --> 00:46:17,480
Speaker 3: There's also a lot of private jet travel for politicians

923
00:46:17,560 --> 00:46:21,600
Speaker 3: as well that sometimes gets expensed through campaigns that I mean,

924
00:46:21,600 --> 00:46:25,759
Speaker 3: remember Bernie on his oligarch tour, he flew private jet

925
00:46:25,800 --> 00:46:28,480
Speaker 3: of course, as all anti oligarchs do. All right, Ryan,

926
00:46:28,480 --> 00:46:29,440
Speaker 3: we're having too much fun with you.

927
00:46:29,480 --> 00:46:31,239
Speaker 1: Were about to run into this commercial break, so we

928
00:46:31,280 --> 00:46:34,000
Speaker 1: have to bounce go check out Ryan's amazing podcast. Everyone

929
00:46:34,000 --> 00:46:35,920
Speaker 1: who listens loves it. It's a numbers game on the

930

951
00:47:58,760 --> 00:48:02,040
Speaker 1: and Buck. We are rolling through? Is this the guess?

952
00:48:02,120 --> 00:48:03,680
Speaker 3: This is the third hour? I jumped in there a

953
00:48:03,680 --> 00:48:05,520
Speaker 3: little bit early. I think, Bob, that's so good. I

954
00:48:05,520 --> 00:48:07,600
Speaker 3: feel like we got another couple of hours to go here.

955
00:48:07,680 --> 00:48:11,920
Speaker 1: You know, sometimes Malone passes the basketball to Stockton. Sometimes

956
00:48:11,960 --> 00:48:13,759
Speaker 1: Stockton passes it to Malone. We just go.

957
00:48:13,960 --> 00:48:17,440
Speaker 3: I understand you got an angry, angry email from a

958
00:48:17,480 --> 00:48:22,000
Speaker 3: listener about your son's potential status in the WNBA.

959
00:48:22,680 --> 00:48:24,640
Speaker 1: It was a d M, and I did have to

960
00:48:25,080 --> 00:48:27,200
Speaker 1: remind the fellow that I did not, in fact claim

961
00:48:27,280 --> 00:48:29,280
Speaker 1: that my one year old could play in the WNBA.

962
00:48:29,640 --> 00:48:33,800
Speaker 1: How old is your son? I have three? One is eighteen.

963
00:48:33,960 --> 00:48:36,239
Speaker 1: I don't I mean the one that you know fifth? Please?

964
00:48:36,480 --> 00:48:38,160
Speaker 1: I know the boys. I know the boys.

965
00:48:39,080 --> 00:48:43,000
Speaker 3: I'm specifically singling out my fifteen year old pretty good athlete.

966
00:48:43,120 --> 00:48:45,360
Speaker 1: He said, I had a cool haircut, because that's my

967
00:48:45,480 --> 00:48:47,759
Speaker 1: he's my favorite right now. He's the one. You had

968
00:48:47,760 --> 00:48:49,239
Speaker 1: a cool haircut. That's right there, we go.

969
00:48:49,680 --> 00:48:54,560
Speaker 3: He will turn sixteen in September. He would be a

970
00:48:54,719 --> 00:48:57,680
Speaker 3: dominant w NBA player right now.

971
00:48:58,239 --> 00:49:01,360
Speaker 1: He could. He could step right into a starting lineup

972
00:49:01,400 --> 00:49:04,160
Speaker 1: for a w U NBA team. I'm telling you we could.

973
00:49:04,360 --> 00:49:08,800
Speaker 1: The money and the ratings you me. We get Secretary

974
00:49:08,800 --> 00:49:12,240
Speaker 1: of warhag Seth. We get Jesse Kelly to be our center,

975
00:49:12,400 --> 00:49:14,680
Speaker 1: just because I think he can dunk without jumping.

976
00:49:15,040 --> 00:49:18,759
Speaker 3: It's preposterous, didn't I see Jesse by the way saying, Oh,

977
00:49:18,920 --> 00:49:20,160
Speaker 3: my back's been hurting.

978
00:49:20,280 --> 00:49:23,200
Speaker 1: What kind of leg exercises can I do? Am I

979
00:49:23,239 --> 00:49:23,920
Speaker 1: making this up?

980
00:49:23,920 --> 00:49:26,279
Speaker 3: And I think Matt Walsh said just accept you're in

981
00:49:26,360 --> 00:49:29,439
Speaker 3: your sixties and just get fat and lazy now, which

982
00:49:29,480 --> 00:49:30,680
Speaker 3: is a very funny response.

983
00:49:31,960 --> 00:49:35,000
Speaker 1: That may have been a thing. But also we got

984
00:49:35,000 --> 00:49:37,239
Speaker 1: to we get Dave Rubin in the mix. I'm trying

985
00:49:37,239 --> 00:49:39,200
Speaker 1: to think of our start. You know Ted Ted Cruz,

986
00:49:39,320 --> 00:49:41,400
Speaker 1: he throw he kicks it around, old school like if

987
00:49:41,440 --> 00:49:44,320
Speaker 1: you've seen Ted when he played Jimmy Kimmel. Ted Cruz

988
00:49:44,400 --> 00:49:48,800
Speaker 1: plays basketball the way that every Long Island rec coach

989
00:49:48,880 --> 00:49:51,600
Speaker 1: tells you to play basketball. A lot of boxing out.

990
00:49:51,840 --> 00:49:54,279
Speaker 1: You gotta throw some elbows to keep that space, and

991
00:49:54,320 --> 00:49:58,000
Speaker 1: then you know, sky hooks, baby hooks. He's uh, he's

992
00:49:58,040 --> 00:50:01,439
Speaker 1: definitely got some game. He's Oh, Jimmy Kimmel. Who else

993
00:50:01,480 --> 00:50:04,080
Speaker 1: in our world is a bit of a baller?

994
00:50:06,280 --> 00:50:09,360
Speaker 3: Look, I'm trying to think of just the elite athletes

995
00:50:09,440 --> 00:50:13,719
Speaker 3: that we think Hannedy Hannity, I know, does a lot

996
00:50:13,760 --> 00:50:14,759
Speaker 3: of like MMA stuff.

997
00:50:14,800 --> 00:50:16,520
Speaker 1: Does he do bad? We got someone find out if

998
00:50:16,520 --> 00:50:19,839
Speaker 1: Hannity ever played well. I think probably had some point guard.

999
00:50:19,840 --> 00:50:23,520
Speaker 3: Give Sean some credit here on good Jeans because he

1000
00:50:23,680 --> 00:50:28,120
Speaker 3: had two D one college tennis player, a son and

1001
00:50:28,160 --> 00:50:31,319
Speaker 3: a daughter, which is a crazy level of success. It's

1002
00:50:31,320 --> 00:50:34,760
Speaker 3: hard to be D one one, I mean at national

1003
00:50:34,840 --> 00:50:38,160
Speaker 3: championship caliber program. So I think Sean would have had,

1004
00:50:39,000 --> 00:50:41,640
Speaker 3: you know, kind of a veteran basketball game back in

1005
00:50:41,680 --> 00:50:41,960
Speaker 3: the day.

1006
00:50:42,040 --> 00:50:44,040
Speaker 1: And I'm just gonna say, I don't know if Bongino

1007
00:50:44,120 --> 00:50:46,359
Speaker 1: ever played basketball. My guess is he probably did. He

1008
00:50:46,400 --> 00:50:48,960
Speaker 1: was a good athlete, I know that. But he could

1009
00:50:48,960 --> 00:50:51,160
Speaker 1: definitely be our enforcer, you know, like the guy in

1010
00:50:51,239 --> 00:50:54,759
Speaker 1: hockey who just stares down the guys that like, you know,

1011
00:50:54,880 --> 00:50:57,520
Speaker 1: make sure that no one throws a hard check on Gretzky.

1012
00:50:57,760 --> 00:51:00,520
Speaker 1: Bongino would be there. He'd just be regulating in the paint,

1013
00:51:00,520 --> 00:51:02,799
Speaker 1: making sure that none of those WNBA ladies got too

1014
00:51:02,880 --> 00:51:03,439
Speaker 1: rough with us.

1015
00:51:03,760 --> 00:51:06,680
Speaker 3: Well, I would just say if we could also draft

1016
00:51:06,719 --> 00:51:09,160
Speaker 3: heg Seth. I mean, the guy bench press is three

1017
00:51:09,160 --> 00:51:11,360
Speaker 3: point fifteen. Now, I don't know if they're going to

1018
00:51:11,400 --> 00:51:13,799
Speaker 3: be drug testing, just just tossing it out there.

1019
00:51:14,239 --> 00:51:15,080
Speaker 1: He wouldn't pass.

1020
00:51:16,440 --> 00:51:19,759
Speaker 3: He don't pass if they did for performance in hand sing,

1021
00:51:19,920 --> 00:51:21,000
Speaker 3: not for other drugs.

1022
00:51:21,160 --> 00:51:25,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, correct, correct. Testosterone is legal under a doctor's prescription.

1023
00:51:26,560 --> 00:51:28,880
Speaker 3: So I think he was on the program with us

1024
00:51:28,880 --> 00:51:30,360
Speaker 3: because I think we had fun when he had a

1025
00:51:30,360 --> 00:51:32,839
Speaker 3: book come out. He played at Princeton back in the day,

1026
00:51:33,760 --> 00:51:36,240
Speaker 3: and I believe he said that he would take Angel

1027
00:51:36,320 --> 00:51:39,600
Speaker 3: Reese head to head one on one. So I think

1028
00:51:39,640 --> 00:51:42,600
Speaker 3: heg Seth could be a twenty ten guy for us,

1029
00:51:42,760 --> 00:51:44,880
Speaker 3: Like I think he could be like a lynchpin on

1030
00:51:45,000 --> 00:51:47,240
Speaker 3: the team, you know we set.

1031
00:51:47,120 --> 00:51:48,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think I think he's a he's a he's

1032
00:51:48,960 --> 00:51:51,680
Speaker 1: a right wing media franchise player. Day. I will tell

1033
00:51:51,719 --> 00:51:53,360
Speaker 1: you I've seen. I haven't played with him because my

1034
00:51:53,440 --> 00:51:57,040
Speaker 1: knees hurt, but Dave Dave Rubins got some game. He

1035
00:51:57,080 --> 00:51:59,239
Speaker 1: would be he would be solid. He's like he's like

1036
00:51:59,320 --> 00:52:01,320
Speaker 1: a good two guard. You know, he's got the shooting

1037
00:52:01,320 --> 00:52:04,800
Speaker 1: guard skills, so we get him in the mix, getting

1038
00:52:04,800 --> 00:52:07,880
Speaker 1: to play with that small Shapiro coach. We've being bent

1039
00:52:08,000 --> 00:52:10,319
Speaker 1: in to do some strategy. You know, he'd be good

1040
00:52:10,320 --> 00:52:14,760
Speaker 1: with the board and strategizing. I don't think is gonna

1041
00:52:14,760 --> 00:52:18,120
Speaker 1: be his thing necessarily, but I think strategy he'd be excellent.

1042
00:52:19,360 --> 00:52:22,640
Speaker 1: I uh, that is really fun. I did Ben's show today.

1043
00:52:22,640 --> 00:52:24,360
Speaker 3: I should have asked him if he thought he could,

1044
00:52:24,640 --> 00:52:26,800
Speaker 3: if he thought he could to lead us to victory.

1045
00:52:28,080 --> 00:52:31,120
Speaker 3: I will say, building on this, we were talking about

1046
00:52:31,120 --> 00:52:36,319
Speaker 3: the WNBA, the Seattle situation. Buck the dumbest thing that

1047
00:52:36,400 --> 00:52:41,400
Speaker 3: I have ever seen a sports league do on social media.

1048
00:52:42,160 --> 00:52:45,279
Speaker 3: Last night, I'm getting ready for bed, and as one does,

1049
00:52:45,360 --> 00:52:47,759
Speaker 3: I'm on my phone scrolling checking to see what the

1050
00:52:47,800 --> 00:52:50,480
Speaker 3: news is, or bombing her on what's the latest on that?

1051
00:52:50,600 --> 00:52:51,120
Speaker 1: Let me do some.

1052
00:52:51,080 --> 00:52:54,400
Speaker 3: Prep for the show, and I see a video of

1053
00:52:54,680 --> 00:52:58,520
Speaker 3: Angel Reese and Page Bucker's I think that's how you

1054
00:52:58,560 --> 00:53:02,120
Speaker 3: pronounce her name. I'm not great to be fair Buckers,

1055
00:53:02,160 --> 00:53:04,279
Speaker 3: that's right, right, And we got producer Greg who's a

1056
00:53:04,280 --> 00:53:08,479
Speaker 3: big yukon Beckers. Sorry, Page Beckers, I always get that wrong.

1057
00:53:08,600 --> 00:53:10,200
Speaker 3: I don't know why you have the U in there.

1058
00:53:10,360 --> 00:53:14,840
Speaker 3: It's an unnecessary vowel. So she is on this video

1059
00:53:15,160 --> 00:53:20,480
Speaker 3: with Angel Reese Buck. The WNBA posted the two of

1060
00:53:20,600 --> 00:53:26,400
Speaker 3: them betting four hundred dollars on a basketball game. The

1061
00:53:26,440 --> 00:53:31,120
Speaker 3: two sides are competing. To put this into context, any

1062
00:53:31,560 --> 00:53:37,279
Speaker 3: NFL player who bets on their team is automatically suspended

1063
00:53:37,320 --> 00:53:43,600
Speaker 3: now for two years without pay. The WNBA posted a

1064
00:53:43,719 --> 00:53:49,040
Speaker 3: video of them betting and then came out while we

1065
00:53:49,040 --> 00:53:54,520
Speaker 3: were on the air and said, according to Front Office Sports,

1066
00:53:55,040 --> 00:53:58,880
Speaker 3: that the video of them betting on their game was

1067
00:53:59,000 --> 00:54:03,880
Speaker 3: quote intend to be lighthearted. We recognize that the post

1068
00:54:04,040 --> 00:54:07,440
Speaker 3: missed the mark and removed it shortly after it was

1069
00:54:07,480 --> 00:54:11,960
Speaker 3: published and addressed the matter internally. So if you're an

1070
00:54:12,080 --> 00:54:16,480
Speaker 3: NFL player, you missed two years. If you bet on

1071
00:54:16,520 --> 00:54:19,480
Speaker 3: your team, you do not get played, you lose your contract.

1072
00:54:20,080 --> 00:54:23,319
Speaker 1: If you are a w NBA player and they post you.

1073
00:54:23,360 --> 00:54:28,200
Speaker 3: On video betting for the game outcome two players, they

1074
00:54:28,360 --> 00:54:31,319
Speaker 3: just say, hey, it was supposed to be lighthearted and

1075
00:54:31,480 --> 00:54:32,920
Speaker 3: we're going to address it internally.

1076
00:54:33,560 --> 00:54:35,759
Speaker 1: By the way, I totally and I think anyone would

1077
00:54:35,840 --> 00:54:42,160
Speaker 1: understand why betting against your team is fraud and wrong

1078
00:54:42,280 --> 00:54:44,759
Speaker 1: and unethical if you're on the If you're on the team, right,

1079
00:54:44,800 --> 00:54:47,560
Speaker 1: that's why it's your team. I totally understand that. I'm

1080
00:54:47,600 --> 00:54:51,359
Speaker 1: a little fuzzier on why betting your team is going

1081
00:54:51,440 --> 00:54:55,239
Speaker 1: to win when you're on a team is on it.

1082
00:54:55,520 --> 00:54:57,040
Speaker 1: I guess it's just they want to keep it clean

1083
00:54:57,040 --> 00:54:58,719
Speaker 1: and not have people betting, and they just they think

1084
00:54:58,719 --> 00:54:59,480
Speaker 1: betting is a mess.

1085
00:55:00,000 --> 00:55:03,160
Speaker 3: The biggest takeaway is bus like when you don't bet right.

1086
00:55:03,239 --> 00:55:05,200
Speaker 3: So Pete Rose back in the day would bet on

1087
00:55:05,280 --> 00:55:08,239
Speaker 3: his team to win. But when you're not betting on

1088
00:55:08,280 --> 00:55:12,480
Speaker 3: your team to win, you're also default sending the message

1089
00:55:12,880 --> 00:55:16,200
Speaker 3: from people who are involved in the betting landscape, Oh,

1090
00:55:16,280 --> 00:55:19,960
Speaker 3: this guy doesn't like the matchup at all going forward.

1091
00:55:20,320 --> 00:55:22,680
Speaker 3: So when you bet on your team, I guess if

1092
00:55:22,680 --> 00:55:25,080
Speaker 3: you're to your point, if you bet on your team

1093
00:55:25,239 --> 00:55:28,799
Speaker 3: every game to win, then it would be less of

1094
00:55:29,040 --> 00:55:33,000
Speaker 3: an issue, right, other than if you're on an awful team,

1095
00:55:33,040 --> 00:55:35,880
Speaker 3: you could end up hundreds of thousands or millions of

1096
00:55:35,920 --> 00:55:39,440
Speaker 3: dollars in debt, which might eventually lead to you betting

1097
00:55:39,520 --> 00:55:42,400
Speaker 3: against your team to try to get back into good graces.

1098
00:55:42,560 --> 00:55:46,120
Speaker 3: I think just I do think blanket prohibitions unless you're

1099
00:55:46,160 --> 00:55:50,319
Speaker 3: an individual boxer or something like that. Maybe on an

1100
00:55:50,360 --> 00:55:55,920
Speaker 3: individual athlete basis, but again telling other people, this has

1101
00:55:55,960 --> 00:55:59,040
Speaker 3: been a huge investigation. I just I can't believe the

1102
00:55:59,120 --> 00:56:01,600
Speaker 3: WNBA was dumb enough to post this, and I can't

1103
00:56:01,600 --> 00:56:04,800
Speaker 3: believe their explanation is ha is it just supposed to

1104
00:56:04,840 --> 00:56:05,480
Speaker 3: be lighthearted?

1105
00:56:06,520 --> 00:56:08,200
Speaker 1: That's what they're saying. We were just kidding, That's what

1106
00:56:08,239 --> 00:56:11,400
Speaker 1: they're saying. We're just kidding. Think about this opens up

1107
00:56:11,400 --> 00:56:13,520
Speaker 1: a lot of territory, you know what I mean? You

1108
00:56:13,560 --> 00:56:16,640
Speaker 1: could be like, hey, officer, was I really going one

1109
00:56:16,719 --> 00:56:19,680
Speaker 1: hundred and twenty miles an hour? This three hundred dollars

1110
00:56:19,680 --> 00:56:23,479
Speaker 1: that I'm handing you says? I wasn't just kidding. It's

1111
00:56:23,600 --> 00:56:27,759
Speaker 1: like does that work? All the copy lighthearted? Right? All

1112
00:56:27,760 --> 00:56:30,400
Speaker 1: the cops listening are like, don't try the lighthearted defense

1113
00:56:30,440 --> 00:56:32,239
Speaker 1: when you try to slip me cash, buddy, You're going

1114
00:56:32,280 --> 00:56:34,600
Speaker 1: to prison. Like you know what I'm saying, Oh yeah,

1115
00:56:34,760 --> 00:56:38,319
Speaker 1: just kidding is joking about the Bribeeah, that's a tough one.

1116
00:56:38,320 --> 00:56:40,200
Speaker 1: I think that's a tough one, dude. I think I'm

1117
00:56:40,239 --> 00:56:42,720
Speaker 1: just kidding about the bribe. If they if they refuse

1118
00:56:42,760 --> 00:56:44,279
Speaker 1: the bribe, I don't think you're gonna get very What

1119
00:56:44,480 --> 00:56:46,600
Speaker 1: is it? Is it the Nelly song where he's like,

Speaker 9: Uh?

1133
00:57:13,920 --> 00:57:15,960
Speaker 3: two thousand and one. I don't know what the guy

1135
00:57:19,320 --> 00:57:22,720

1136
00:57:22,760 --> 00:57:25,080
Speaker 3: about two thousand and one, right like, when every song

1137
00:57:25,120 --> 00:57:27,760
Speaker 3: it felt like was a Nelly hit. He looks and
