So for the 21 00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:03,959 Speaker 2: Jacksonville Jaguar fans out there, I know, I know they 22 00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:06,640 Speaker 2: had a good year. And honestly, it's not very far 23 00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:09,440 Speaker 2: from the University of Florida, where buck Sexton's wife is 24 00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:13,480 Speaker 2: an alum. Unfortunately, they got whipped by Iowa in the 25 00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:15,120 Speaker 2: NCAA tournament and are out. 26 00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:16,160 Speaker 1: Did you even know that, Buck? 27 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:18,399 Speaker 3: I did not, but looks like I lost one on 28 00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:21,200 Speaker 3: the bracket because I always bet on Florida. I'm always 29 00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:24,640 Speaker 3: betting on Florida. So the Gators are out, we will 30 00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:27,000 Speaker 3: have some fun. Who do you have to win the 31 00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:28,960 Speaker 3: whole thing? By the way, I took Houston just because 32 00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:31,800 Speaker 3: I've heard the name so many times. Houston is my pick. 33 00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:33,960 Speaker 2: I think Duke's actually going to lose to Saint John's 34 00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:37,000 Speaker 2: this upcoming Sweet sixteen game, but both of our teams 35 00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:40,200 Speaker 2: are still alive. Houston's got a tough matchup as well, 36 00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:43,320 Speaker 2: and we'll be taking a bunch of your calls. By 37 00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:46,600 Speaker 2: the way, Steve Yates, good guest here, because a lot 38 00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:48,000 Speaker 2: of people have been saying, what do I need to 39 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:49,880 Speaker 2: know about this straight of horror moves. It's in the 40 00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:51,960 Speaker 2: news a lot. I understand a lot of you are 41 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,640 Speaker 2: having to learn a lot of geography here. As the 42 00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:58,120 Speaker 2: situation in Iran continues. We will discuss that with him. 43 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:02,400 Speaker 2: Plus we just talked about the yesterday. Senator Marshall Blackburn 44 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 2: is going to join us in the third hour she 45 00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 2: was with President Trump in Memphis on his visit to 46 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:12,040 Speaker 2: that city where crime is plummeting. I also want to 47 00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 2: throw out the phone number here for people who live 48 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:19,240 Speaker 2: in Memphis in the wake of the President's visit. I'm 49 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:21,839 Speaker 2: curious for all of you listening in Memphis, how much 50 00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 2: difference have you seen in Memphis since the president surge happened? 51 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 2: Eight hundred and two A two two eight A two. 52 00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:34,080 Speaker 2: But I wanted to start with this. Linda in Arizona 53 00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:37,600 Speaker 2: continues to dominate the news cycle. There are tons of 54 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:40,639 Speaker 2: stories about her. This morning, as we were getting ready 55 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:43,480 Speaker 2: to come on the program, the Washington Post wanted to 56 00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:45,040 Speaker 2: interview us I had. 57 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:47,360 Speaker 1: They want to interview Linda. 58 00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:51,360 Speaker 2: So if she is listening right now, producer Greg is 59 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:54,040 Speaker 2: going to ask whether you want to be interviewed by 60 00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 2: the Washington Post. So for everybody out there who was calling, 61 00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:59,200 Speaker 2: you never know when you might step in and become 62 00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:01,800 Speaker 2: a major part of the national story. And Buck, I 63 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 2: flew this morning out of Nashville. Zero issues with the 64 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 2: TSA there. Every time I go through the Nashville TESA, 65 00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 2: I meet listeners, I meet fans of the show. I 66 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:19,400 Speaker 2: love the Nashville Airport and I love the TSA there. 67 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:20,600 Speaker 1: I appreciate everybody working. 68 00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 2: I'm gonna be flying out this evening out of Jacksonville 69 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 2: because I'm speaking at an event down here and then 70 00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:29,760 Speaker 2: headed back home. And what I saw was things seem 71 00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 2: to be moving and progressing well. It appears Buck that 72 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 2: TSA agent presence has actually helped with a lot of 73 00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 2: callouts going on, a lot of sicknesses, a lot of 74 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 2: people saying, hey, you know what, I've got to do 75 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:43,840 Speaker 2: another job. 76 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 1: I've got to be able to make money. 77 00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:47,880 Speaker 2: I've got childcare issues, I've got to make sure that 78 00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:50,200 Speaker 2: i can pay my bills, which I totally understand, which 79 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:54,000 Speaker 2: is why this is so unfair. And I think that 80 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:58,240 Speaker 2: the TSA agents are in fact helping because wait time 81 00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:01,520 Speaker 2: seem to be down, and based on what I have 82 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 2: seen this morning, in the wake of TSA agents being 83 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:09,200 Speaker 2: deployed to help, then allow as Linda argued, and I 84 00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 2: think is happening TSA agents to be reallocated because otherwise 85 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:16,080 Speaker 2: they don't have to watch, you know, exits and entrances 86 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:18,719 Speaker 2: and all these different things at the airport. So we 87 00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:21,039 Speaker 2: will see exactly how this plays out. But I did 88 00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:24,479 Speaker 2: want to say this is a I think a super 89 00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 2: cool example of President Trump paying attention and the relationship 90 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:32,120 Speaker 2: that he has with his voters. Yesterday, I went on 91 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:35,160 Speaker 2: after we had this show, Buck, I went on with 92 00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:39,240 Speaker 2: our friend Will Caine, and I said this on our 93 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:42,839 Speaker 2: radio show as well. I said, hey, President Trump, I 94 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 2: bet Linda, grandmother of five, mom of a couple of kids. 95 00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 1: I said, she's a big fan. 96 00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:53,960 Speaker 2: I bet she would appreciate an autographed copy of the 97 00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:58,840 Speaker 2: Trump Was Right About Everything hat. Within an hour of 98 00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:03,000 Speaker 2: me saying that President Trump's team had texted and they 99 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 2: have signed. If you go on Twitter you can see it. 100 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:07,680 Speaker 2: We'll share it from Clay and Buck if we haven't already. 101 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:13,359 Speaker 2: Linda has a personally signed President Trump hat that he 102 00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:16,640 Speaker 2: signed for her yesterday on Air Force One that he 103 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:19,039 Speaker 2: is sending to us that we will then route to 104 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:21,760 Speaker 2: Linda as a thank you for being a supporter and 105 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:24,960 Speaker 2: helping to come up with a great idea. I know 106 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:27,560 Speaker 2: there's a lot of stories out there to me, Buck, 107 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:30,040 Speaker 2: as we just told the Washington Post, and you know 108 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:33,520 Speaker 2: we all know how talking to media that doesn't love 109 00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:35,599 Speaker 2: us often goes. So I have no idea how that 110 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:39,279 Speaker 2: story will turn out. But I actually think Irrespective of 111 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 2: what your opinion is of President Trump, the fact that 112 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:47,200 Speaker 2: he is able to see a good idea and act 113 00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 2: on it basically in the space of seventy two hours 114 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:55,000 Speaker 2: is a warp speed response from government. I think Linda's 115 00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:57,480 Speaker 2: idea was a good one. She put it out into 116 00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:01,280 Speaker 2: the ecosystem, it did not exist before her call, and 117 00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:04,480 Speaker 2: shortly thereafter the President of the United States is acting 118 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:07,719 Speaker 2: on it. I don't know that there's any example of 119 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:12,120 Speaker 2: a president behaving this way where he listens to his 120 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:15,560 Speaker 2: voters and tries to respond and is willing to accept 121 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:18,440 Speaker 2: their good ideas that we have ever seen. I think 122 00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:22,120 Speaker 2: it is a great story, and if I were advising 123 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:23,880 Speaker 2: the White House, I would lean in on it. We're 124 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 2: going to take great ideas no matter where they come from. 125 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:29,800 Speaker 2: You can be a Nobel Prize winning economist, economist, or 126 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:34,039 Speaker 2: you can be a grandma. Five good ideas are good ideas. 127 00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:35,840 Speaker 2: We're going to try to move on them when we 128 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:38,840 Speaker 2: see them. And I think it's an incredible testament to him. 129 00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:41,680 Speaker 3: Well, that's the way that government should function. It goes 130 00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:45,600 Speaker 3: back to Clay what I was saying yesterday about how 131 00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:49,159 Speaker 3: the simple genius of trump Ism is figure out the 132 00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:50,839 Speaker 3: obvious thing to do to make it better, and do 133 00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:53,839 Speaker 3: that thing. And this was now, to be fair, this 134 00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:57,320 Speaker 3: is not an obvious thing to make it better. There 135 00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:59,760 Speaker 3: was some artistry, there was some creative thinking in this one. 136 00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:03,800 Speaker 3: But Trump is willing to do the thing that will work, 137 00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:06,560 Speaker 3: or do the thing that is a break from what 138 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 3: everybody else in consistent failure has been offering as the 139 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:15,120 Speaker 3: only alternative or the best option, or whatever it may be. 140 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:18,480 Speaker 3: So I'm very happy to see that this has been deployed. 141 00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:22,120 Speaker 3: It is quite It's classic, isn't it. I'm traveling for 142 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 3: one day and Clay and the audience decide to fix 143 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 3: America in twenty four hours. So well done. I knew 144 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:31,760 Speaker 3: the ship was in good hands. I knew with you 145 00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:36,040 Speaker 3: at the con things would would go smoothly, and in 146 00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:38,640 Speaker 3: this case, better than smoothly. It looks like may have 147 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:41,480 Speaker 3: really done an endron on the Democrats here. 148 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:42,440 Speaker 1: Clay. 149 00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:46,160 Speaker 3: I still believe that, if nothing else, it'll help the 150 00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:47,280 Speaker 3: lines a bit, which is good. 151 00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 1: But it also just shows. 152 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 3: The Democrats are causing this, because there's no way if 153 00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:55,480 Speaker 3: Republicans were causing even if you're not paying attention to politics, 154 00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:58,760 Speaker 3: if Republicans were causing the long TSA lines. Now they're 155 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:01,840 Speaker 3: going to send ice over instead of just having the 156 00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:04,840 Speaker 3: TSA do their jobs and be funded. Now, of course 157 00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:10,840 Speaker 3: this is democrats, and it brings you back to counterinsurgency theory. 158 00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:14,280 Speaker 3: Democrats are waging a political insurgency in an election year. 159 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 3: Insurgents just have to make things bad. They have to 160 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 3: make things dysfunctional, miserable, dangerous, whatever, and then they say, see, 161 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 3: they can't protect you, they can't make it better. The 162 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:27,800 Speaker 3: people in charge are bad. The people in charge are 163 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:30,080 Speaker 3: the ones that are failing you. Even though if the 164 00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:32,680 Speaker 3: insurgents that are blowing up the village and making sure 165 00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:35,000 Speaker 3: that no one can get food, but they say, see 166 00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:37,400 Speaker 3: they can't make things better for you, Put us in 167 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:39,960 Speaker 3: charge and things will be fine. That's what democrats are doing. 168 00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:43,880 Speaker 3: They're political insurgents. They're making you miserable at the airport, 169 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:49,000 Speaker 3: they're slowing down travel, They're creating frustration because there's not 170 00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:53,040 Speaker 3: enough frustration out there for them to capitalize on from 171 00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:55,719 Speaker 3: bad Trump policy or bad probably. You know, they keep 172 00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:58,080 Speaker 3: saying they want the Iran war to be this huge 173 00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:04,640 Speaker 3: cleavage in the in the Maga base. It's not all 174 00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:08,920 Speaker 3: the polling. You know, are we taking irate calls about 175 00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:10,440 Speaker 3: the Iran waram, No, we're not. 176 00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:11,560 Speaker 1: We're open to them. 177 00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:14,079 Speaker 3: But people are saying, yeah, look, I trust Trump to 178 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 3: play this out. I trust Trump to figure out the 179 00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:20,080 Speaker 3: best way for the country to move forward on this. 180 00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:24,640 Speaker 3: That seems like eighty ninety percent of Trump voters right now, 181 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:27,000 Speaker 3: which is pretty solid. So this is why they have 182 00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:30,240 Speaker 3: to make the TSA thing a point of misery, because 183 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:35,040 Speaker 3: otherwise economy is good, border secure, Trump is doing you know, 184 00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:36,520 Speaker 3: you gotta let him cook on Iran. 185 00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 2: He's doing his thing. What else are they going to 186 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:41,920 Speaker 2: point to? I think that's the other part of this 187 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:46,760 Speaker 2: is that's unfortunate. A lot of Democrats are trying, I've 188 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 2: seen it to say TSA failure is a function entirely 189 00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:55,360 Speaker 2: of Trump and Republicans, And frankly, there's a lot of 190 00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 2: people who believe that, because they are in such a 191 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 2: sheltered media ecosystem, that all they can think of is 192 00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:06,719 Speaker 2: orange man, bad buck. I had some fun with this. 193 00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:09,080 Speaker 2: I posted this last night because I did think it 194 00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:14,079 Speaker 2: was funny. The left wing out there is outraged by 195 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:17,960 Speaker 2: the idea that ice agents wear masks, and their latest 196 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:22,280 Speaker 2: concern is what if ICE agents wear masks at the airport. 197 00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:25,240 Speaker 2: The funniest thing about this, as you well know, is 198 00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:29,400 Speaker 2: the people who are wearing masks at the airport still 199 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:34,240 Speaker 2: after six years, are concerned that the ICE agents might 200 00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:37,560 Speaker 2: be wearing masks at the airport. It wasn't very long ago, 201 00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:40,880 Speaker 2: and I'm still radicalized and angry about it that they 202 00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:43,520 Speaker 2: were all lecturing us. Remember when they would say, buck, 203 00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:49,199 Speaker 2: my mask protects you, and your mask protects me, which 204 00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:54,000 Speaker 2: is why flight attendants were monitoring how long you sipped 205 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:57,080 Speaker 2: from a drink or chewed your peanuts. I guess they 206 00:10:57,080 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 2: don't have peanuts anymore because of all the peanut allergies. 207 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:03,600 Speaker 2: Your press on the airplane and walking around and saying, 208 00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:07,600 Speaker 2: excuse me, sir, excuse me, ma'am. You're keeping your mask 209 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:11,920 Speaker 2: down for too long. So if you truly believe that 210 00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:15,360 Speaker 2: masks were important, shouldn't you be applauding the fact that 211 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:18,000 Speaker 2: the ICE agents were wearing their masks in the airport. 212 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:23,320 Speaker 2: Isn't wearing their masks keeping you safe? That is what 213 00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 2: they argued with us six years ago, and I'm still 214 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:29,880 Speaker 2: not going to forget it because they were such draconian 215 00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:35,000 Speaker 2: awful authoritarians for that entire process, and now many of 216 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:36,839 Speaker 2: them just want to pretend that. 217 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:37,600 Speaker 1: It never happened. 218 00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:42,080 Speaker 3: It's also a perfect example of this tells you everything 219 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:45,040 Speaker 3: you need to know. If someone is currently walking through 220 00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:48,920 Speaker 3: an airport anywhere in America wearing a cloth mask, yep, 221 00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:52,840 Speaker 3: and they have an opinion of any kind on politics, 222 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:54,760 Speaker 3: and they're you know, they maybe just don't know anything, 223 00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:56,240 Speaker 3: and that's why they're wearing the mask. They could just 224 00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:58,880 Speaker 3: be wildly ignorant of all things. That's possible. But if 225 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:02,760 Speaker 3: they have an opinion on say ice, one hundred percent chance, 226 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:07,760 Speaker 3: one hundred percent chance that they are outraged about what 227 00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 3: happened in Minneapolis, wearing a mask to protect you from germs, 228 00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:13,400 Speaker 3: which does not work. 229 00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:16,439 Speaker 1: It does not work. It never works. It's very obvious. 230 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:16,760 Speaker 4: People. 231 00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 3: What about surgeons during Yeah, because that they're up close 232 00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:21,640 Speaker 3: and they have saliva and stuff could fall into the wound. 233 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:25,680 Speaker 3: That's a different thing, but anyway, doesn't work, Clay, And 234 00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:29,120 Speaker 3: yet one hundred percent chance that they're very upset about Trump. 235 00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 3: There is not a single Republican in America right now 236 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,520 Speaker 3: walking around, not a single Trump voter in an airport 237 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:38,520 Speaker 3: with a mask on who's like COVID is still real. 238 00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:41,960 Speaker 3: That's right, That's one hundred percent true. And so I 239 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:43,720 Speaker 3: do think it's funny that these are the people that 240 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:46,080 Speaker 3: are claimed to be the most outraged and upset and 241 00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:50,000 Speaker 3: terrified of the fact that ICE is acting as they 242 00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:53,880 Speaker 3: are in airports, which, by the way, doesn't mean that 243 00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:57,000 Speaker 3: everything's going to get better. It's just kind of a 244 00:12:57,200 --> 00:13:01,640 Speaker 3: bandage to help with the disaster that democrats have created. 245 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:04,480 Speaker 3: And if you're standing in a line, and I know 246 00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:07,440 Speaker 3: that some of you are as you listen to us, 247 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:11,959 Speaker 3: you're headed into airports. Honestly, if I were thinking about 248 00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:17,040 Speaker 3: buck traveling to Houston, New Orleans, New York City, Atlanta, 249 00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:19,240 Speaker 3: based on some of the information that I have seen 250 00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:22,040 Speaker 3: over the past few years, I wouldn't go. If I 251 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:24,760 Speaker 3: had a trip scheduled right now to land at Iah 252 00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:26,640 Speaker 3: in Houston, and I knew I was gonna have to 253 00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:28,640 Speaker 3: fly back out, I would not go. If I were 254 00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:31,320 Speaker 3: headed to Atlanta, I wouldn't go. If I were headed 255 00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:34,760 Speaker 3: to New York City, I wouldn't go. I just I'm 256 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:37,360 Speaker 3: not willing to stand in line for hours. There are 257 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:41,280 Speaker 3: very few trips that are so necessary to make that 258 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:44,920 Speaker 3: I would be willing to stand in line for hours 259 00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:49,240 Speaker 3: to make them all very good points. We'll come into 260 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:51,360 Speaker 3: some of your calls and talkbacks here about all this. 261 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:54,000 Speaker 3: Maybe some of you, maybe one of you listening, wants 262 00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:56,200 Speaker 3: to solve a massive problem in America. Get the attention 263 00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:58,000 Speaker 3: of the White House and get yourself assigned. Trump pat 264 00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:02,040 Speaker 3: just throwing it out there. You know, it happened once, 265 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:05,000 Speaker 3: It could happen again. All right, Now, something serious we 266 00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:06,640 Speaker 3: got to dive into, and that is how to defend 267 00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:09,439 Speaker 3: yourself at home with non lethal options. 268 00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:11,040 Speaker 1: I got a lot of lethal options here. 269 00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:12,600 Speaker 3: You guys know, I'm a big two A guy, but 270 00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:17,040 Speaker 3: I also like to have force escalation possibility, meaning depending 271 00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 3: on what the situation calls for, I can go non lethal. 272 00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:23,040 Speaker 3: Carry prefers non lethal. That's just the way some people 273 00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:24,920 Speaker 3: want to be able to defend themselves, and it makes 274 00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:28,440 Speaker 3: perfect sense.

He's a senior 294 00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:40,520 Speaker 3: fellow at the Heritage Foundation of former Bush national security official, 295 00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:44,840 Speaker 3: and Steve just just take us through as you see 296 00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:47,480 Speaker 3: it here. We know Horror Moves is a choke point. 297 00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 3: Why is this so complicated? What do you think can 298 00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:55,080 Speaker 3: be done about it? How do we resolve this thing? 299 00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:59,520 Speaker 3: I saw an editorial in the journal Wall Street Journal saying, 300 00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:01,720 Speaker 3: you know, we just got to land troops to secure 301 00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:03,960 Speaker 3: the strait and it's just going to be a quick operation. 302 00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:07,880 Speaker 3: And I'm like, on hold on a second, I've heard 303 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:10,080 Speaker 3: that before. What do you think about what's going on here? 304 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:15,040 Speaker 6: Well, Buck, as you know, it's a very confined geography. 305 00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:17,840 Speaker 6: That's one of the major challenges. It's a very long 306 00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:23,640 Speaker 6: strip of waterway where Iran has shoreline all along one side. 307 00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:26,520 Speaker 6: There are some very very wealthy neighbors on the other 308 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:28,320 Speaker 6: side of that water they would like to get their 309 00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:31,440 Speaker 6: energy out to market, and then it goes through this 310 00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:35,400 Speaker 6: very narrow strait that is a choke point. There's an 311 00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:37,760 Speaker 6: island in the middle of it that Trump has hit 312 00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:41,040 Speaker 6: some military targets on and has talked about maybe taking 313 00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:45,160 Speaker 6: control over. That is responsible for refining and has an 314 00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:49,640 Speaker 6: extremely high proportion of Iran's oil endowment. So I think 315 00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:52,000 Speaker 6: people who say this is a simple military operation might 316 00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:54,800 Speaker 6: be under selling it a bit. They are so close 317 00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:58,400 Speaker 6: to Iran geographically that even with remnants you might still 318 00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:01,120 Speaker 6: get hit. And I think that's why President Trump has 319 00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:04,919 Speaker 6: done this maximum pressure but then pull back and say, 320 00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:08,159 Speaker 6: if we can get a deal that gets them to 321 00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:11,560 Speaker 6: relent and we reopen things, then we're in a better place. 322 00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:14,359 Speaker 6: And he also has pressure to allies to say, you know, 323 00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:17,359 Speaker 6: we have a really small American percentage of this oil. 324 00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:21,640 Speaker 6: You guys come in and shepherd your vessels out of here, 325 00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:23,720 Speaker 6: and the your audience shouln't shoot at you. And so 326 00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:26,640 Speaker 6: I think there's these at least two layers that really 327 00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:29,240 Speaker 6: need to get handled before the curve is turned. 328 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:30,119 Speaker 1: On this steve. 329 00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:33,080 Speaker 2: I think a lot of our listeners are just not 330 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:36,360 Speaker 2: very familiar with the strait of horror moves. In general, 331 00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:40,480 Speaker 2: based on my reading, the vast majority of oil and 332 00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:42,679 Speaker 2: gas that is coming through this strait of horror moves 333 00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:46,080 Speaker 2: has no impact on the United States oil and gas 334 00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:49,560 Speaker 2: marketplace at all, and I think much of it ends 335 00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:53,879 Speaker 2: up going to China. With that in context to what 336 00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:59,439 Speaker 2: extent actually should this be a larger global issue? A 337 00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:01,080 Speaker 2: lot of the folk becas has been on the United 338 00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:03,720 Speaker 2: States oil and gas market, but really it's more of 339 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:06,600 Speaker 2: a global issue than it is a United States one. 340 00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:08,520 Speaker 1: Okay, that's right. 341 00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:11,360 Speaker 6: But first and foremost, oil is a fungible good, which 342 00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:14,240 Speaker 6: is a fancy word of meaning it can shift in 343 00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:17,560 Speaker 6: value and get sold and bought in any number of 344 00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:21,560 Speaker 6: different ways. And so when oil goes out of this 345 00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:25,399 Speaker 6: lituristictioned area and goes to China, that affects global supply 346 00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:28,320 Speaker 6: in the market, and it affects prices, and so any 347 00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:31,879 Speaker 6: release of resources out of this conflict zone will have 348 00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:36,080 Speaker 6: downward pressure on price in some measure. It's definitely the 349 00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:39,280 Speaker 6: case that China is the overwhelming buyer of Iran oil 350 00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:41,800 Speaker 6: is probably because it's been sanctioned for a long time 351 00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:43,960 Speaker 6: and they've gotten it at a discount. A President Trump 352 00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:46,439 Speaker 6: is trying to remove that discount and get them to 353 00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:49,280 Speaker 6: pay for a little bit of the security free India 354 00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:52,159 Speaker 6: also depends on a good bit of this too, But 355 00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:55,160 Speaker 6: it's definitely one of these global commons issues of where 356 00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:59,879 Speaker 6: Europeans depend to some degree and Asian major powers depend 357 00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:02,600 Speaker 6: in a large degree in America's providing them a service 358 00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:05,399 Speaker 6: that Trump aims to get them to pay a bill for. 359 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:10,919 Speaker 3: Steve, how do you assess the Trump I'm going to 360 00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:14,239 Speaker 3: speaking from the Trump perspective here. He said, We're going 361 00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:18,200 Speaker 3: to hate the energy facilities, power plants, I believe, and 362 00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:23,679 Speaker 3: energy facilities in Iran unless they open the strait. But 363 00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:27,080 Speaker 3: then we heard there's some backchannel negotiation, so he has 364 00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:31,840 Speaker 3: put that redline or he has moved that timeline down 365 00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:32,280 Speaker 3: a bit. 366 00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:35,360 Speaker 1: How do you think this is going? Is it possible 367 00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:36,000 Speaker 1: to read into this? 368 00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:38,639 Speaker 3: I mean, I know with Trump, I feel like part 369 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:43,080 Speaker 3: of the strategy is actually a little bit of the 370 00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:47,760 Speaker 3: perception of chaos that the opposition can take from his statements. 371 00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:49,400 Speaker 3: What do you think about what he's doing? 372 00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:53,800 Speaker 6: Well, Buck, you know, from people who've been longtime practitioners, 373 00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:56,119 Speaker 6: we think of this as somewhat straight state craft. I 374 00:19:56,200 --> 00:20:00,280 Speaker 6: think of it as Trump craft. He hits like a sledgehammer, 375 00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:02,480 Speaker 6: and then he'll pull back and he'll look for where 376 00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:05,960 Speaker 6: are their deals? And he recognizes just common sense that 377 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:08,919 Speaker 6: if we can get them to relent and engage in 378 00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:13,320 Speaker 6: some kind of a verifiable deal, that is safer, more endurable, 379 00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:16,520 Speaker 6: and it's a much preferable path to go down. At 380 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:19,719 Speaker 6: the same time, even though his critics will never recognize it, 381 00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:23,439 Speaker 6: he's being reasonable. He's giving them off ramps every step 382 00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:26,400 Speaker 6: along this way so that if they miss this deadline, 383 00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:29,960 Speaker 6: and I suspect they might miss this deadline, Trump will 384 00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:30,560 Speaker 6: hit them hard. 385 00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:32,320 Speaker 1: But he's tried to leave. 386 00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:37,480 Speaker 6: The civilian energy infrastructure intact, so that post conflict. Reconstruction 387 00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:41,520 Speaker 6: is cheaper and better for the people of Iran if 388 00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:43,600 Speaker 6: they can take their country. So he's trying to do 389 00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:46,640 Speaker 6: them a solid. Hopefully they recognize it. But I would 390 00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:49,639 Speaker 6: make no mistake about it. This deadline passes very much further. 391 00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:52,120 Speaker 6: Trump's going to hit them hard, and that is kind 392 00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:55,240 Speaker 6: of a classical form of warfare. You take the energy 393 00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:58,080 Speaker 6: out to end the war machine. That's how you get 394 00:20:58,200 --> 00:20:58,960 Speaker 6: total surrender. 395 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:02,679 Speaker 2: We're talking to as we've been talking to you in 396 00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:05,480 Speaker 2: the last I don't know ten to fifteen minutes. The 397 00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:09,879 Speaker 2: story from the Wall Street Journal. US has ordered three thousand, 398 00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:13,760 Speaker 2: eighty second airborne soldiers to the Middle East. Trump has 399 00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:18,679 Speaker 2: given Iran a Friday deadline. What do you think it 400 00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:22,520 Speaker 2: would look like if there were to be a raid? 401 00:21:22,600 --> 00:21:24,240 Speaker 2: And I say raid because I don't think we're going 402 00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:27,359 Speaker 2: to be setting up bases in Iran that potentially could 403 00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:32,320 Speaker 2: involve KRG Island or putting troops to try to protect 404 00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:35,480 Speaker 2: the straight of horror moves in a big picture, since 405 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:39,239 Speaker 2: what might that look like? And obviously Trump is at 406 00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:42,280 Speaker 2: least threatening that he might do so with these actions. 407 00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:46,560 Speaker 6: Well, I do think the carb Island option is very 408 00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:50,240 Speaker 6: much front and Center. I really don't like the option 409 00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:53,840 Speaker 6: personally of the US being kind of the sole provider 410 00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:56,760 Speaker 6: of security in this really should be something that is 411 00:21:56,800 --> 00:22:01,560 Speaker 6: a shared responsibility, especially among those allies who have been 412 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:03,960 Speaker 6: hit by Iran and now say they're going to hit 413 00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:06,960 Speaker 6: back and they need to provide security for their flows 414 00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:09,679 Speaker 6: to go to market. So I really hope the President 415 00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:12,479 Speaker 6: is working behind the scenes to get them involved so 416 00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:14,560 Speaker 6: that they're skin in the game in every sense. And 417 00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:18,920 Speaker 6: it's not just American targets for Iranian forces to hit, 418 00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 6: but we would have to just knock the crap out 419 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:25,560 Speaker 6: of their coastline to have a safe buffer buffer for ships, 420 00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:28,440 Speaker 6: and we'd probably have to occupy carg Island to control that. 421 00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:32,120 Speaker 3: Do we have a sense and we're speaking of Stephen Yates, 422 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:36,639 Speaker 3: senior fell at the Heritage Foundation national security expert, Steve, 423 00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:42,120 Speaker 3: do we have a sense of what the acceptable endgame 424 00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:42,600 Speaker 3: is here? 425 00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:42,960 Speaker 1: Again? 426 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:48,840 Speaker 3: Trump has indicated numerous times of an endgame or what 427 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:52,359 Speaker 3: maybe it looks like depending on the day. But I 428 00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:55,439 Speaker 3: think there's variations on a theme here. Where do you 429 00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:58,520 Speaker 3: think what do you think would be acceptable for this 430 00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:01,359 Speaker 3: to get to at least a sea fire and some 431 00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:02,280 Speaker 3: next phase? 432 00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:05,280 Speaker 6: Right well, Buck, I think of it as getting to 433 00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:08,240 Speaker 6: a de escalation point that sort of pivots into longer 434 00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:11,280 Speaker 6: term maintenance. And I think President Trump has been clear 435 00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:14,520 Speaker 6: about some of the standards. One has been hyper focused 436 00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:18,640 Speaker 6: on the nuclear programs that's combined US and Israeli operations 437 00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:22,200 Speaker 6: that might involve having to have some forces, hopefully not ours, 438 00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:26,000 Speaker 6: but some forces going in to physically control and verify 439 00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:31,920 Speaker 6: disarmament in those sensitive facilities, the launch capabilities, complete defanging 440 00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:35,000 Speaker 6: of the security forces. I think that's also been more 441 00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:39,480 Speaker 6: the Israeli mission in recent days. So I think it's 442 00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:44,159 Speaker 6: overwhelmingly getting the flow of resources, not just because we 443 00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:46,159 Speaker 6: love oil, although that's a good thing to love to 444 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:48,719 Speaker 6: keep the world running. It's to make it so that 445 00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:52,320 Speaker 6: markets calm, resources flow, and there's a sense of where 446 00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:56,439 Speaker 6: we can get post major military operations. I think that 447 00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:58,680 Speaker 6: we should and must get there in the next week 448 00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:01,960 Speaker 6: or two. That's where we'll get a sense of is 449 00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:06,720 Speaker 6: this tipping into a more complex entanglement or if it 450 00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:09,840 Speaker 6: really hit all those targets that the Secretary of War 451 00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:11,000 Speaker 6: and the President have said we have. 452 00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:15,120 Speaker 2: Trump has been talking about doing this since the nineteen eighties. 453 00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:17,880 Speaker 2: There have been people out there who have said, oh, 454 00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:20,600 Speaker 2: he only did this because of Israel. Buck and I 455 00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:23,080 Speaker 2: have talked about this. I'm curious how you would analyze 456 00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:25,840 Speaker 2: the likelihood of this. I can see a world where 457 00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:28,400 Speaker 2: the United States says, hey, we've done everything we want 458 00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:32,480 Speaker 2: to do and pulls back and Israel continues to hit Iran. 459 00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:34,959 Speaker 2: What do you think the likelihood of that is that 460 00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:39,879 Speaker 2: this union of attack eventually turns into a solitary attack 461 00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:40,800 Speaker 2: from Israel. 462 00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:45,200 Speaker 6: Well, I one hundred percent agree that it's going to change. 463 00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:47,320 Speaker 6: I don't want it to be solitary in the sense 464 00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:51,240 Speaker 6: that I really seriously hope that our regional partners play 465 00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:53,960 Speaker 6: more of a role in constructively shaping the security and 466 00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:59,720 Speaker 6: economic environment there after major military operations wind down. I 467 00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:03,440 Speaker 6: believe completely. The President has his set of clear objectives. 468 00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:05,919 Speaker 6: He wants to make sure there's a return on the investment. 469 00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:08,879 Speaker 6: But he's definitely, I think, going to be looking in 470 00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:12,440 Speaker 6: the shorter term horizon, whereas Israel and maybe some other 471 00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:15,480 Speaker 6: partners really need to do the constant gardening. In the 472 00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:18,399 Speaker 6: longer term. We can hit every once in a while 473 00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:21,160 Speaker 6: when necessary. I think that's appropriate for the United States 474 00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:23,760 Speaker 6: as a superpower. But we can't be the one that's 475 00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:28,000 Speaker 6: micromanaging this even in the months, much less years, Reigne, 476 00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:28,920 Speaker 6: going after this. 477 00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:35,760 Speaker 3: What does a realistic future of the Iranian state look like? 478 00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:37,040 Speaker 1: That would be. 479 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:42,639 Speaker 3: Clear evidence that the Trump plan here has has worked. 480 00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:47,159 Speaker 3: I mean, essentially, Steve, what is yeah for victory for 481 00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:48,760 Speaker 3: US is obviously straight orfoward, moves is. 482 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:50,120 Speaker 1: Open, oil is flowing. 483 00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:51,919 Speaker 3: We have some kind of, as you said, a de 484 00:25:52,040 --> 00:25:54,719 Speaker 3: escalation agreement. Got to figure out what the Israelis are 485 00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:56,840 Speaker 3: going to do in this as well. I figure there's 486 00:25:56,840 --> 00:25:59,280 Speaker 3: gonna be some high level, the highest level talks between 487 00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:02,359 Speaker 3: Trump and net and who on this. But is there 488 00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:05,359 Speaker 3: a world in which we decide we can live with 489 00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:07,879 Speaker 3: the Mullas still kind of in charge, but they're just 490 00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:13,240 Speaker 3: really wimpy and frightened mullahs Or is it some kind 491 00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:18,960 Speaker 3: of a pathway to a representative democracy, maybe overseen by 492 00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:24,080 Speaker 3: some Arab League transition process. I mean, I'm basically asking 493 00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:25,600 Speaker 3: you to fix the Middle East here. But we had 494 00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:29,280 Speaker 3: a lady call in and fix the DHS problem with TSA. 495 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:31,919 Speaker 3: So you know you've been doing this for like thirty 496 00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:34,520 Speaker 3: forty years, Steve, You tell me how does the next 497 00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:38,679 Speaker 3: phase of Iran look if this all goes according to plan, Well, Buck, the. 498 00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:41,879 Speaker 6: First sign I'm looking for is an actual human being 499 00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:44,959 Speaker 6: with a name. That is the person or a group 500 00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:48,720 Speaker 6: that President Trunk has been negotiating with directly or indirectly. 501 00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:50,359 Speaker 1: I think for their. 502 00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:55,240 Speaker 6: Own life sake, they have kept this person anonymous. A 503 00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:57,879 Speaker 6: lot of speculation, but really, if there's going to be 504 00:26:58,119 --> 00:27:00,840 Speaker 6: a soft transition, it's going to have to be into 505 00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:04,040 Speaker 6: the hands of some entity that's recognizable so that we 506 00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:07,200 Speaker 6: and others in the international community can make deals that 507 00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:11,120 Speaker 6: ensure the piece and get through this transition. So first 508 00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:13,360 Speaker 6: we're going to have to see who's the they. When 509 00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:17,199 Speaker 6: President Trump says they have made a commitment to denuclearize, 510 00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:19,960 Speaker 6: that would be a major win if that's true, and 511 00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:23,440 Speaker 6: I believe that President is hearing that. But complete, verifiable, 512 00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:27,440 Speaker 6: irreversible dismantlement of that program is a thirty plus year 513 00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:30,200 Speaker 6: long objective. If President Trump did that in a month 514 00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:35,320 Speaker 6: or two, that's borderline miraculous. And so getting that person identified, 515 00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:40,200 Speaker 6: that group identified, and then international peacekeepers are verifiers. That's 516 00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:42,000 Speaker 6: where we can go back to the allies and say, 517 00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:43,760 Speaker 6: you guys have got to come up with a coalition 518 00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:46,080 Speaker 6: that does this you run into problems. We might be 519 00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:48,320 Speaker 6: your nine to one one, but what we're not your 520 00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:49,119 Speaker 6: daily daddy. 521 00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:54,200 Speaker 2: Last question CVI eights. There are reports that Saudi Arabia 522 00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:58,080 Speaker 2: is encouraging Trump to keep pouring on the steel, so 523 00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:04,760 Speaker 2: to speak, on Iran uae Qatar based on reports, kicking 524 00:28:04,800 --> 00:28:11,280 Speaker 2: Iranian diplomats out of their country is the most underdiscussed 525 00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:15,520 Speaker 2: part of this entire attack. How much support there is 526 00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:18,400 Speaker 2: for it from so called other Arab Muslim countries. 527 00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:23,560 Speaker 6: Clay that's ultimately been the biggest rebuttal to this idea 528 00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:26,359 Speaker 6: that it was somehow Israel that on its own dragged 529 00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:30,000 Speaker 6: us into this. For years, I have heard from Arab 530 00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:34,040 Speaker 6: allies deep, deep concerns, and it was frankly welcomed by 531 00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:36,720 Speaker 6: then when Trump one point oh brought in the maximum 532 00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:41,320 Speaker 6: pressure a campaign to get away from the Obama Iran 533 00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:45,040 Speaker 6: nuclear deal. They were the key drivers that made the 534 00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:48,760 Speaker 6: Abraham Accords a reality. It was, yes, the US and 535 00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:51,600 Speaker 6: Israel involved, and very much so, but it was Arab 536 00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:54,360 Speaker 6: allies that pushed very very hard in this. And this 537 00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:58,440 Speaker 6: really ultimately gets back to trump craft one point oh, 538 00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:03,160 Speaker 6: He's resetting all of these trouble zones with different cards 539 00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:05,720 Speaker 6: and different coalitions, and I think those Arab allies are 540 00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:08,800 Speaker 6: sick of what Iran has done to them during this conflict. 541 00:29:08,840 --> 00:29:10,680 Speaker 6: And really, over the last decades. 542 00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:13,360 Speaker 2: Steve outstanding stuff has always keep us updated.

What we bring in now, 591 00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:57,880 Speaker 2: Senator Marsha Blackburn of the Great State of Tennessee. And 592 00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:01,760 Speaker 2: I know yesterday, Senator Blackburn, you were with President Trump 593 00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:06,040 Speaker 2: as he toured Memphis, including Graceland and talked about the 594 00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:09,360 Speaker 2: massive decline that we have seen an overall violent crime 595 00:32:09,920 --> 00:32:12,760 Speaker 2: since there was a surge of federal support. 596 00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:15,520 Speaker 1: You represent the state. You were just there. 597 00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:19,120 Speaker 2: What should people know nationwide about what's happening in Memphis. 598 00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:24,840 Speaker 4: Memphis is the models, Clay. If you want to get 599 00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:27,880 Speaker 4: crime down in your city, look at what Memphis has 600 00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:31,520 Speaker 4: done and the partnership that is there with local, state 601 00:32:31,560 --> 00:32:35,880 Speaker 4: and federal elected officials and local state and federal agencies 602 00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:39,600 Speaker 4: all working together, and it takes it all as a team, 603 00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:43,720 Speaker 4: and when Cash, Betel and Pambondi were coming through their 604 00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:51,040 Speaker 4: confirmations for FBI and Attorney General, I asked each of 605 00:32:51,080 --> 00:32:54,240 Speaker 4: them and then got a public commitment from them. 606 00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:55,520 Speaker 1: To help us. 607 00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:59,920 Speaker 4: They jumped in. They worked with their agencies. Federal agent 608 00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:04,120 Speaker 4: worked with the local police, They worked with the Tennessee 609 00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:09,120 Speaker 4: Highway Patrol and National Guard, and Tennessee Bureau of Investigations, 610 00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:14,440 Speaker 4: our US Attorney, our US Marshall, and thirty federal agencies 611 00:33:14,560 --> 00:33:19,080 Speaker 4: on the ground working helping, And because of that, in 612 00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:22,720 Speaker 4: under six months, we have cut the crime rate in 613 00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:27,400 Speaker 4: Memphis by half, and Memphis is on its way from 614 00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:30,880 Speaker 4: being the most dangerous city per capita in the country 615 00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:35,240 Speaker 4: to being one of the safest cities. That shows you 616 00:33:35,840 --> 00:33:40,520 Speaker 4: when the people with a Democrat mayor Democrat electives, Democrat 617 00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:44,200 Speaker 4: police chief stand up and say we are going to 618 00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:49,840 Speaker 4: work with these resources, with these agencies, with all of 619 00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:53,400 Speaker 4: these elected officials, we are going to do this for 620 00:33:53,520 --> 00:33:56,240 Speaker 4: the good of the people, then this is the type 621 00:33:56,440 --> 00:33:58,080 Speaker 4: result that you get. 622 00:33:58,280 --> 00:34:01,720 Speaker 3: Hey, Center Blackburn's back, such a remarkable story. We've seen 623 00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:04,960 Speaker 3: similar numbers in d C. And I know as the 624 00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:08,920 Speaker 3: crime stats are compiled from cities where there's been this 625 00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:12,319 Speaker 3: federal intervention to bring crime down. We're going to keep 626 00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:16,040 Speaker 3: seeing this. But I think you laid into a critical 627 00:34:16,080 --> 00:34:18,960 Speaker 3: point there, which is that these are this is a 628 00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:22,879 Speaker 3: Democrat controlled city, still they were willing to work with 629 00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:27,040 Speaker 3: the federal government to bring the crime rate down. Is 630 00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:29,879 Speaker 3: there any hope in your mind that we might see 631 00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:33,879 Speaker 3: this then in some other Democrat controlled cities, Because if 632 00:34:33,880 --> 00:34:37,160 Speaker 3: you're the mayor, you know, maybe you have aspirations to 633 00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:39,480 Speaker 3: be a governor or a senator perhaps in a state. 634 00:34:40,040 --> 00:34:42,360 Speaker 3: But there are a few things that I would believe 635 00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:46,440 Speaker 3: could be a bigger benefit to any mayor then be 636 00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:48,360 Speaker 3: able to look at his constituents when he wants or 637 00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:50,759 Speaker 3: she wants to run for reelection and say, yeah, we 638 00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:54,120 Speaker 3: brought the violent crime rate down fifty percent. 639 00:34:56,280 --> 00:34:59,440 Speaker 4: And that is something that is so vitally important. You know, 640 00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:02,440 Speaker 4: the people that came to the round table we did 641 00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:07,359 Speaker 4: in Memphis yesterday had remarkable stories and the people that 642 00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:11,360 Speaker 4: were in the room, Buck, you would have loved listening 643 00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:15,759 Speaker 4: to these people. They weren't partisan. They were citizens of 644 00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:18,920 Speaker 4: the city of Memphis who have dealt with this crime issue. 645 00:35:19,239 --> 00:35:21,720 Speaker 4: And for them to be able to talk about sitting 646 00:35:21,719 --> 00:35:24,640 Speaker 4: on their porch a small and drinking a glass of 647 00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:28,440 Speaker 4: tea and not worrying about a bullet coming through the house. 648 00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:31,400 Speaker 4: For them to talk about being a small business owner 649 00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:36,840 Speaker 4: and not having landscaping equipment or delivery equipment stolen, or 650 00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:40,759 Speaker 4: employees not being robbed when they were leaving work, and 651 00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:47,440 Speaker 4: hear about children back to class. They're not skipping school, 652 00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:50,880 Speaker 4: they are going back to school. They're not being recruited 653 00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:55,000 Speaker 4: by games. Because many of these gangs have been run 654 00:35:55,160 --> 00:35:59,799 Speaker 4: out of the city of Memphis. Memphis has seen more 655 00:35:59,840 --> 00:36:06,480 Speaker 4: than nine thousand arrest nine thousand in the last five months. 656 00:36:06,600 --> 00:36:11,319 Speaker 4: These are violent criminal arrest and you have crimed down 657 00:36:11,480 --> 00:36:16,920 Speaker 4: significantly in every category. Motor vehicle sifts are down sixty 658 00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:21,720 Speaker 4: five percent in Memphis. And when you focus on any 659 00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:25,720 Speaker 4: issue and say we're going to surge, and then once 660 00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:29,640 Speaker 4: we surge, we're going to look at those results and 661 00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:34,800 Speaker 4: we're going to figure out how to sustain that good work, 662 00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:38,759 Speaker 4: and we're going to do it all in partnership for 663 00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:41,520 Speaker 4: the safety of the people of our city. 664 00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:45,719 Speaker 2: We're talking to Senator Marsha Blackburn right now as we 665 00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:49,120 Speaker 2: are speaking to you, Senator Mark Wayne Mullen, one of 666 00:36:49,160 --> 00:36:52,120 Speaker 2: your former I guess I could say now Senate colleagues, 667 00:36:52,120 --> 00:36:54,920 Speaker 2: has been sworn in as the head of DHS. I 668 00:36:54,920 --> 00:36:58,120 Speaker 2: believe yesterday he was confirmed by a vote of fifty 669 00:36:58,160 --> 00:37:01,880 Speaker 2: five fifty four to forty five, including your support. What 670 00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:03,960 Speaker 2: can you tell us about Mark Wayne Mullen, What do 671 00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:06,839 Speaker 2: you think he will be like as DHS head. 672 00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:11,520 Speaker 4: He is a very good friend of mine. Mark Wayne 673 00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:17,440 Speaker 4: is someone who is going to work diligently. He understands 674 00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:21,319 Speaker 4: how you run a business, how you lead people, and 675 00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:23,839 Speaker 4: you know that is the most important thing in an 676 00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:27,880 Speaker 4: organization is knowing how to lead people and how to 677 00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:32,680 Speaker 4: manage assets. And Mark Wayne gets that. He gets the 678 00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:37,560 Speaker 4: difference in that he is given to protecting our great nation. 679 00:37:38,080 --> 00:37:42,840 Speaker 4: He knows and supports President Trump in his America First agenda, 680 00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:45,719 Speaker 4: and it was exciting to be on the floor with 681 00:37:45,920 --> 00:37:49,000 Speaker 4: him last night, to have his family here and to 682 00:37:49,080 --> 00:37:52,720 Speaker 4: see their excitement as he was named to our nation's 683 00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:54,680 Speaker 4: Secretary of Homeland Security. 684 00:37:56,239 --> 00:37:59,360 Speaker 3: Speaking of Senator Marsha Blackburn right now, and you know, 685 00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:04,200 Speaker 3: we are seeing these breaking reports from just today, Senator 686 00:38:04,320 --> 00:38:07,600 Speaker 3: about some of these airports that have been so snarled 687 00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:12,360 Speaker 3: because of Democrats really manufacturing a travel crisis. That's what 688 00:38:12,719 --> 00:38:16,520 Speaker 3: has been going on. But now this ice deployment into 689 00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:25,239 Speaker 3: these airports has substantially, if not completely, alleviated that TSA congestion. 690 00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:28,680 Speaker 3: This is pretty remarkable. I have to ask you, Seter, 691 00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:31,160 Speaker 3: do you know that there is some belief that this 692 00:38:31,760 --> 00:38:34,800 Speaker 3: originated with a call in to the show on Friday 693 00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:37,880 Speaker 3: and Clay immediately then took it to Fox and then 694 00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:39,040 Speaker 3: the President ran with this. 695 00:38:39,200 --> 00:38:41,360 Speaker 1: It looks like this strategy is working. 696 00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:47,080 Speaker 4: It is indeed working, and putting ice over at the airports, 697 00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:52,239 Speaker 4: demand the exits as people walk out of the secured areas, 698 00:38:52,680 --> 00:38:57,680 Speaker 4: and to prohibit people from running through the entrance into 699 00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:02,040 Speaker 4: that exit or through that exit to the secured area, 700 00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:08,440 Speaker 4: to check id's identifications, to assist PSA employees who are 701 00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:11,440 Speaker 4: over worked right now, and we continue to work to 702 00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:16,840 Speaker 4: try to find a way to get DHS fully funded. 703 00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:19,920 Speaker 4: We have a group that has been working with the 704 00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:24,200 Speaker 4: White House. It is a part of our Appropriations Committee, 705 00:39:24,239 --> 00:39:28,720 Speaker 4: those members and they are trying to find a way forward. 706 00:39:28,840 --> 00:39:34,239 Speaker 4: And then we're also discussing doing a public safety reconciliation 707 00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:37,359 Speaker 4: where we will look at bolstering the funds that are 708 00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:41,520 Speaker 4: necessary to continue the public safety efforts for our nation. 709 00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:46,000 Speaker 2: We're talking to Senator Marsha Blackburn. You spent a lot 710 00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:50,040 Speaker 2: of time in Washington, DC. The overall violent crime rate 711 00:39:50,080 --> 00:39:53,200 Speaker 2: has collapsed in Washington, d C. You were just in Memphis. 712 00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:55,640 Speaker 2: You just shared the data with us about how much 713 00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:59,600 Speaker 2: the crime rate has collapsed in Memphis. Isn't it now 714 00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:04,400 Speaker 2: the case, using both these cities as sort of experiments, 715 00:40:04,440 --> 00:40:06,759 Speaker 2: for lack of a better way to describe it, that 716 00:40:06,840 --> 00:40:09,600 Speaker 2: there are tons of cities out there that if we 717 00:40:09,640 --> 00:40:12,560 Speaker 2: did the exact same thing, we could save a massive 718 00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:15,319 Speaker 2: amount of lives. Shouldn't we just start to apply these 719 00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:16,520 Speaker 2: lessons nationwide? 720 00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:20,000 Speaker 4: Oh? Yes, And when you look at the difference in 721 00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:25,560 Speaker 4: Memphis and Minneapolis, think about that one where in Memphis 722 00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:29,839 Speaker 4: they embraced the help and welcomed the help, and then 723 00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:33,480 Speaker 4: they moved forward with making the city secure. And as 724 00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:36,959 Speaker 4: I said, now nine thousand arrests later, and I will 725 00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:42,120 Speaker 4: also add, in addition to the hundreds of vehicles that 726 00:40:42,239 --> 00:40:45,279 Speaker 4: have been recovered, the hundreds of weapons that have been 727 00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:48,480 Speaker 4: taken off the street, they have found over one hundred 728 00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:53,640 Speaker 4: and fifty missing children that were being held by people, 729 00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:56,200 Speaker 4: and they have been returned home. And as I said, 730 00:40:56,200 --> 00:40:58,880 Speaker 4: You've got hundreds of children that have gone back to school. 731 00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:04,080 Speaker 4: They're winning the gangs, and other cities should be looking 732 00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:08,040 Speaker 4: at this. And you know, you look at somewhere like 733 00:41:08,160 --> 00:41:14,040 Speaker 4: Chicago or La or San Francisco that has such horrific issues. 734 00:41:14,440 --> 00:41:19,200 Speaker 4: You look at cities that are sanctuary cities for illegal immigration, 735 00:41:19,800 --> 00:41:24,759 Speaker 4: and you say, why are they harboring these criminal illegal aliens? 736 00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:28,760 Speaker 4: And then you look at Memphis where citizens are walking 737 00:41:28,840 --> 00:41:31,320 Speaker 4: up to you. You know, people call our office every 738 00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:34,880 Speaker 4: single day and they say, thank you so much for 739 00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:39,680 Speaker 4: focusing on Memphis, for bringing peace to our city, for 740 00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:45,439 Speaker 4: helping to get the crime down, No doubt so much. 741 00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:46,120 Speaker 1: Yeah. 742 00:41:46,400 --> 00:41:49,759 Speaker 2: Senator, by the way, congrats on polling. I don't know 743 00:41:49,800 --> 00:41:52,000 Speaker 2: if you comment on polling very much, but I saw 744 00:41:52,040 --> 00:41:55,520 Speaker 2: that you have a fifty point lead in the upcoming 745 00:41:55,600 --> 00:42:00,720 Speaker 2: governor's race, which will frankly largely be decided in August 746 00:42:00,760 --> 00:42:04,279 Speaker 2: when the Republican primary happens. So congrats on how well 747 00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:05,279 Speaker 2: that campaign is going. 748 00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:09,920 Speaker 4: Well. Thank you. We are working hard and working to 749 00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:13,600 Speaker 4: earn every vote and grateful for those good polls that 750 00:42:13,640 --> 00:42:14,520 Speaker 4: are coming our way. 751 00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:17,920 Speaker 2: No doubt that is Senator Marshall Blackburn soon to be 752 00:42:17,960 --> 00:42:20,840 Speaker 2: the next governor of the Great State of Tennessee, my governor, 753 00:42:20,880 --> 00:42:23,440 Speaker 2: look forward to that. And I want to tell you 754 00:42:23,560 --> 00:42:26,200 Speaker 2: right now, if you are watching what is happening all 755 00:42:26,400 --> 00:42:31,359 Speaker 2: around the world, there are continued attacks on Israel from 756 00:42:31,440 --> 00:42:35,200 Speaker 2: Iran as they are firing weapons into Israel with no 757 00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:38,520 Speaker 2: real regard for where those missiles are headed. And if 758 00:42:38,560 --> 00:42:42,160 Speaker 2: you are paying attention to that at all, you probably 759 00:42:42,160 --> 00:42:47,000 Speaker 2: have also been noticing that constantly Israeli citizens have to 760 00:42:47,080 --> 00:42:50,000 Speaker 2: be running into bomb shelters. And one of the groups 761 00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:53,960 Speaker 2: that's helping to create bomb shelters, International Fellowship of Christians 762 00:42:53,960 --> 00:42:56,320 Speaker 2: and Jews.

If 767 00:43:04,400 --> 00:43:09,080 Speaker 2: you are receiving treatment inside of hospitals, they have had 768 00:43:09,120 --> 00:43:13,160 Speaker 2: to relocate some of the hospitals underground into the parking garages. 769 00:43:13,200 --> 00:43:15,239 Speaker 2: If you're wondering who helps to make that happen, it's 770 00:43:15,280 --> 00:43:19,240 Speaker 2: the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews, and they are 771 00:43:19,280 --> 00:43:21,680 Speaker 2: doing things to try to protect people in the Holy 772 00:43:21,760 --> 00:43:26,760 Speaker 2: Land everywhere.

I don't know if you saw this yet, Buck. 796 00:44:47,200 --> 00:44:52,640 Speaker 2: Delta Airlines announced this week it suspended its standalone service 797 00:44:52,719 --> 00:44:57,040 Speaker 2: for Members of Congress until the TSA is fully funded. 798 00:44:57,239 --> 00:45:00,960 Speaker 2: I love this great move, Delta quote. Due to the 799 00:45:01,040 --> 00:45:06,440 Speaker 2: impact on resources from the long standing government shutdown, Delta 800 00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:12,200 Speaker 2: will temporarily suspend specialty services to members of Congress Flying Delta, 801 00:45:12,560 --> 00:45:13,280 Speaker 2: Flying Delta. 802 00:45:13,960 --> 00:45:15,800 Speaker 1: Next to safety, Delta's. 803 00:45:15,480 --> 00:45:18,520 Speaker 2: Number one priority is taking care of our people and customers, 804 00:45:18,840 --> 00:45:23,480 Speaker 2: which has become increasingly difficult in the current environment. A 805 00:45:23,600 --> 00:45:27,160 Speaker 2: spokesman for Delta This is from the Atlanta Journal Constitution 806 00:45:27,840 --> 00:45:31,319 Speaker 2: said House and Senate members will now be treated like 807 00:45:31,480 --> 00:45:35,520 Speaker 2: all flying passengers based on their skymile status. 808 00:45:35,560 --> 00:45:39,279 Speaker 1: In other words, just like you and me. 809 00:45:40,640 --> 00:45:43,000 Speaker 2: I first of all, I don't think I don't know 810 00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:45,520 Speaker 2: what you think about this, Buck, I don't think House 811 00:45:45,560 --> 00:45:47,960 Speaker 2: and Senate members should get special status. 812 00:45:48,000 --> 00:45:48,160 Speaker 4: Now. 813 00:45:48,160 --> 00:45:51,120 Speaker 2: If you fly all the time and you're a Medallion 814 00:45:51,200 --> 00:45:54,799 Speaker 2: member or a frequent fly or whatever. The phrase is 815 00:45:54,880 --> 00:45:58,080 Speaker 2: that these different airlines use fine because you're spending a 816 00:45:58,080 --> 00:46:00,560 Speaker 2: lot of money and they want to treat you better 817 00:46:00,640 --> 00:46:03,480 Speaker 2: because you're a valued customer. All those things can make sense, 818 00:46:04,440 --> 00:46:08,120 Speaker 2: But they're five hundred and thirty five members of the 819 00:46:08,200 --> 00:46:11,719 Speaker 2: House and Senate. How many people do you think are 820 00:46:11,840 --> 00:46:17,800 Speaker 2: regularly recognized and harassed? And again, you're inside of an airport, 821 00:46:17,920 --> 00:46:20,480 Speaker 2: so we know there's not people with guns or knives 822 00:46:20,640 --> 00:46:21,479 Speaker 2: or anything that. 823 00:46:21,400 --> 00:46:23,040 Speaker 1: Would make it violent there. 824 00:46:24,200 --> 00:46:26,839 Speaker 2: I don't know that they should ever return this privilege, 825 00:46:26,920 --> 00:46:29,960 Speaker 2: and certainly when TSA is not getting paid, I like 826 00:46:30,080 --> 00:46:33,000 Speaker 2: taking it away. But I don't know that these guys 827 00:46:33,080 --> 00:46:37,840 Speaker 2: really deserve special privilege anyway, Like why can't an average 828 00:46:37,880 --> 00:46:41,120 Speaker 2: member of Congress or the Senate stand in line like 829 00:46:41,360 --> 00:46:42,120 Speaker 2: everybody else. 830 00:46:42,160 --> 00:46:43,239 Speaker 1: What are your thoughts on this? 831 00:46:43,719 --> 00:46:48,279 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's a weird almost like a celebrity, uh, 832 00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:52,080 Speaker 3: you know, fringe benefit that is not there's no reason 833 00:46:52,880 --> 00:46:54,960 Speaker 3: am i am? I all in favor of calling out 834 00:46:55,000 --> 00:46:56,839 Speaker 3: the United States military to the front of the line. 835 00:46:56,880 --> 00:47:02,319 Speaker 3: Let them board absolutely for serving in the military. Congress, Yeah, 836 00:47:02,360 --> 00:47:05,040 Speaker 3: some of them serve. Some of them serve themselves mostly actually, 837 00:47:05,160 --> 00:47:07,879 Speaker 3: they serve themselves. I'm not about to say that they 838 00:47:07,920 --> 00:47:09,520 Speaker 3: can't be like the rest of us. In fact, I 839 00:47:09,520 --> 00:47:12,200 Speaker 3: think the more that members of Congress have to act 840 00:47:12,280 --> 00:47:15,520 Speaker 3: like normal people, the better for all of us. I'm 841 00:47:15,560 --> 00:47:19,200 Speaker 3: all in favor. I, for example, hit the roof as 842 00:47:19,239 --> 00:47:23,040 Speaker 3: so many people did when Congress exempted themselves from Obamacare. 843 00:47:23,239 --> 00:47:24,920 Speaker 1: Remember that, Oh yeah, of course, Oh we're going to 844 00:47:24,960 --> 00:47:25,880 Speaker 1: force this on all of you. 845 00:47:26,000 --> 00:47:27,680 Speaker 3: But I mean, we're going to have our gold platedt 846 00:47:27,680 --> 00:47:29,840 Speaker 3: awesome plans, but you can have the crap plans. 847 00:47:30,760 --> 00:47:31,480 Speaker 1: I would just. 848 00:47:31,520 --> 00:47:34,040 Speaker 2: Continue to say this, and I think it would end 849 00:47:34,080 --> 00:47:37,279 Speaker 2: lockdowns and shutdowns and everything else once and for all. 850 00:47:37,920 --> 00:47:41,480 Speaker 2: If Congress can't get a budget passed, then Congress shouldn't 851 00:47:41,480 --> 00:47:45,279 Speaker 2: get paid period for the whole year. Like, if you 852 00:47:45,480 --> 00:47:49,440 Speaker 2: can't your job is to get budgets passed. We keep 853 00:47:49,520 --> 00:47:53,279 Speaker 2: having all these lockdowns, all these shutdowns, and people who 854 00:47:53,320 --> 00:47:57,960 Speaker 2: are normal, hard working employees are losing their ability to 855 00:47:57,960 --> 00:48:01,400 Speaker 2: get paid. So to me, if you're in Congress and 856 00:48:01,480 --> 00:48:03,640 Speaker 2: you can't get a budget passed, you shouldn't get paid. 857 00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:06,240 Speaker 2: And I think it would immediately go away. 858 00:48:06,239 --> 00:48:06,520 Speaker 1: Buck. 859 00:48:06,719 --> 00:48:10,720 Speaker 2: I think if House and Senate members had to get 860 00:48:10,760 --> 00:48:13,759 Speaker 2: a had to deal with the same things that they're 861 00:48:13,800 --> 00:48:15,239 Speaker 2: putting other people. 862 00:48:14,960 --> 00:48:16,880 Speaker 1: Through, I think they would get paid. 863 00:48:17,400 --> 00:48:19,640 Speaker 2: And look, I think there are House and Senate members 864 00:48:19,680 --> 00:48:21,560 Speaker 2: that do not have a lot of money right there, 865 00:48:22,200 --> 00:48:26,279 Speaker 2: and those people should be driving this because if you're 866 00:48:26,360 --> 00:48:29,920 Speaker 2: having to live on your salary and pay your mortgage 867 00:48:29,920 --> 00:48:34,359 Speaker 2: and pay for your kids daycare, whatever else, then you 868 00:48:34,440 --> 00:48:39,480 Speaker 2: should understand better than the average super millionaire who is 869 00:48:39,560 --> 00:48:42,239 Speaker 2: being funded by George Soros. 870 00:48:41,719 --> 00:48:46,040 Speaker 1: Probably and isn't having to live on what they actually make. 871 00:48:46,560 --> 00:48:48,759 Speaker 2: It's easier I think for those people to say, hey, 872 00:48:48,760 --> 00:48:50,320 Speaker 2: we're just going to shut down the government, what a 873 00:48:50,360 --> 00:48:50,799 Speaker 2: weak care. 874 00:48:51,200 --> 00:48:52,800 Speaker 1: I think if you started. 875 00:48:52,440 --> 00:48:56,160 Speaker 2: Saying Congress doesn't get paid for the year that they 876 00:48:56,239 --> 00:48:58,640 Speaker 2: shut down, I think this would end once and for all, 877 00:48:58,920 --> 00:49:01,399 Speaker 2: and I don't think it's good. Our friend Senator Ron 878 00:49:01,480 --> 00:49:03,879 Speaker 2: Johnson of Wisconsin has laid out in the Wall Street 879 00:49:03,960 --> 00:49:06,480 Speaker 2: Journal and we've had him on talking about this a 880 00:49:06,640 --> 00:49:11,000 Speaker 2: super logical process for the budget that requires everything to 881 00:49:11,040 --> 00:49:11,479 Speaker 2: get done. 882 00:49:11,520 --> 00:49:12,760 Speaker 1: I was just reading his piece. 883 00:49:12,800 --> 00:49:15,000 Speaker 2: He had a good piece about the filibuster over the 884 00:49:15,040 --> 00:49:20,080 Speaker 2: weekend and he said, look, I mean it's forty nine 885 00:49:20,120 --> 00:49:22,759 Speaker 2: out of fifty states I think have a balanced budget requirement. 886 00:49:23,160 --> 00:49:25,600 Speaker 2: So state governments tend to balance their budgets. 887 00:49:25,680 --> 00:49:28,360 Speaker 1: Go figure. The federal government doesn't. 888 00:49:28,440 --> 00:49:31,680 Speaker 2: And I think incompetence should not be rewarded and so 889 00:49:31,760 --> 00:49:34,120 Speaker 2: when I saw this story from Delta Airlines, I said, 890 00:49:34,120 --> 00:49:36,640 Speaker 2: good for Delta, because remember all the CEOs of the 891 00:49:36,680 --> 00:49:40,920 Speaker 2: airlines came out and said, fun TSA, get this taken 892 00:49:40,960 --> 00:49:42,640 Speaker 2: care of, we want this done. 893 00:49:43,560 --> 00:49:46,360 Speaker 1: And I just think it's I just think it's a 894 00:49:46,360 --> 00:49:46,800 Speaker 1: no brainer. 895 00:49:46,840 --> 00:49:48,680 Speaker 2: I don't know that I would return this service if 896 00:49:48,719 --> 00:49:55,279 Speaker 2: I were Delta candidly, And so that makes sense to you. 897 00:49:55,920 --> 00:49:59,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely, And I'm glad the airlines are fighting back 898 00:49:59,120 --> 00:50:01,359 Speaker 3: a little bit here. But this is nonsense because, as 899 00:50:01,400 --> 00:50:04,120 Speaker 3: you all know, the airline employees are taking a lot 900 00:50:04,120 --> 00:50:06,120 Speaker 3: of the brunt of this. You think people are going 901 00:50:06,160 --> 00:50:08,879 Speaker 3: to be in a good mood when they walk up 902 00:50:08,960 --> 00:50:11,800 Speaker 3: to the ticket counter or whatever, or they get on 903 00:50:11,840 --> 00:50:14,879 Speaker 3: a plane and deal with the attendance and the pilot crew. 904 00:50:14,960 --> 00:50:16,239 Speaker 3: You think people are going to be nice and in 905 00:50:16,280 --> 00:50:19,399 Speaker 3: a good mood after waiting four hours in a TSA line. 906 00:50:19,440 --> 00:50:22,800 Speaker 1: I mean, I'd be steaming mad. 907 00:50:23,239 --> 00:50:24,799 Speaker 3: Try to be polite that the people had nothing to 908 00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:26,719 Speaker 3: do with it, but I think any person would have 909 00:50:27,280 --> 00:50:30,560 Speaker 3: really had more than their fill and the frustration would 910 00:50:30,600 --> 00:50:33,839 Speaker 3: be boiling over. So this is absolutely the right move 911 00:50:33,880 --> 00:50:36,120 Speaker 3: for them to do. And it's also just it's just 912 00:50:36,160 --> 00:50:40,360 Speaker 3: so classic that Democrats are doing this, and it's all 913 00:50:41,000 --> 00:50:44,279 Speaker 3: based in the lie. The lie is that somehow this 914 00:50:44,480 --> 00:50:48,719 Speaker 3: is Republicans creating these lines because they won't just bend 915 00:50:48,719 --> 00:50:51,719 Speaker 3: the knee and let Democrats have control over immigration enforcement. 916 00:50:52,120 --> 00:50:54,520 Speaker 3: That's not the way that this works. They don't have 917 00:50:54,600 --> 00:50:58,480 Speaker 3: the executive branch. The executive branch should not be bending 918 00:50:58,520 --> 00:51:01,839 Speaker 3: the knee when Democrats are in the minority to how 919 00:51:01,960 --> 00:51:06,400 Speaker 3: laws are enforced by federal agencies. Because Democrats get sad 920 00:51:06,719 --> 00:51:10,720 Speaker 3: about the enforcement of federal law. Sorry, so they're willing 921 00:51:10,760 --> 00:51:14,640 Speaker 3: to just make people miserable and unhappy and then lie 922 00:51:14,680 --> 00:51:15,480 Speaker 3: about who did it. 923 00:51:15,800 --> 00:51:17,319 Speaker 1: I just to me. 924 00:51:18,160 --> 00:51:21,800 Speaker 3: This just shows you what really an unethical and pretty 925 00:51:21,840 --> 00:51:24,680 Speaker 3: depraved party the Democrats have become. This is the best 926 00:51:24,680 --> 00:51:27,879 Speaker 3: they can do, because if they were admitting to everybody, yeah, guys, 927 00:51:27,880 --> 00:51:31,879 Speaker 3: we're the reason. We're so dedicated to illegal aliens that 928 00:51:31,960 --> 00:51:35,279 Speaker 3: we think we want to keep so many illegal aliens 929 00:51:35,400 --> 00:51:37,839 Speaker 3: in this country that we don't even want the child 930 00:51:37,960 --> 00:51:42,040 Speaker 3: predators and the gang members and the murderers to be deported. 931 00:51:42,120 --> 00:51:43,839 Speaker 3: We want to keep them all. We want to keep 932 00:51:43,840 --> 00:51:47,480 Speaker 3: all those illegals. So you're waiting in line because Democrats 933 00:51:47,560 --> 00:51:50,400 Speaker 3: don't want any of those illegals, even the worst of 934 00:51:50,480 --> 00:51:53,359 Speaker 3: the worst illegals, sent back to the countries that are 935 00:51:53,400 --> 00:51:57,160 Speaker 3: actually the countries that they belong in. If they were 936 00:51:57,160 --> 00:51:58,680 Speaker 3: willing to do that, Clay I would say, all right, 937 00:51:58,680 --> 00:52:01,040 Speaker 3: but they're not right. They're playing a game here, and 938 00:52:01,080 --> 00:52:01,759 Speaker 3: the game is. 939 00:52:01,760 --> 00:52:04,919 Speaker 1: Oh, we're willing to open up the TSA, if only 940 00:52:04,960 --> 00:52:07,960 Speaker 1: Republicans would play play ball with us. It's like, what 941 00:52:08,000 --> 00:52:10,239 Speaker 1: are you talking about? What are you really standing for? 942 00:52:11,280 --> 00:52:13,560 Speaker 2: By the way, President Trump is speaking right now, we'll 943 00:52:13,560 --> 00:52:16,360 Speaker 2: play some of this audio, but I'll read this quote. 944 00:52:16,400 --> 00:52:21,400 Speaker 2: This is from the Rapid Response forty seven account on Iran. 945 00:52:21,840 --> 00:52:25,080 Speaker 2: We're in negotiations right now. I can tell you they'd 946 00:52:25,120 --> 00:52:28,200 Speaker 2: like to make a deal. Who wouldn't if you were there. Look, 947 00:52:28,640 --> 00:52:32,040 Speaker 2: their navy's gone, their air force is gone, their communications 948 00:52:32,080 --> 00:52:35,920 Speaker 2: are gone. Pretty much everything they have is gone. That 949 00:52:36,080 --> 00:52:39,960 Speaker 2: is President Trump speaking at the mark Wayne Mullen swearing in, 950 00:52:41,360 --> 00:52:46,040 Speaker 2: and he says there's a change in the leadership. Iron's 951 00:52:46,120 --> 00:52:50,040 Speaker 2: leaders are all different than the ones who started. And 952 00:52:50,120 --> 00:52:53,719 Speaker 2: then there are additional quotes coming out. So we will 953 00:52:53,800 --> 00:52:57,120 Speaker 2: keep running on this. President Trump speaking as we are 954 00:52:57,200 --> 00:52:59,839 Speaker 2: talking with all of you in the Oval Office. Right 955 00:52:59,880 --> 00:53:04,080 Speaker 2: now now, says Rubio and Vance are involved in negotiations 956 00:53:04,080 --> 00:53:10,000 Speaker 2: with Iran, in addition to Jared Kushner and Steve Whitcough.
