There is so much 4 00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:15,200 Speaker 1: going on all across the country to dive into with 5 00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:18,320 Speaker 1: all of you today.

Jad's gonna join us. 11 00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:39,400 Speaker 1: We're talking about all the main issues in the campaign. Economy, 12 00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:42,840 Speaker 1: the border crime, economy, the border cris I walk away. 13 00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:45,800 Speaker 1: I'm like going to sleep at night muttering this to myself. 14 00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:49,240 Speaker 1: That's how focused in Clay we are on this economy, 15 00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:52,440 Speaker 1: the border crime. Other issues obviously we talked about too, 16 00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:55,480 Speaker 1: but that is the centerpiece. Because I'll tell you right now, 17 00:00:55,920 --> 00:01:01,040 Speaker 1: the Libs are freaking out because the momentum is not 18 00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:03,480 Speaker 1: with them. I've even gotten into the latest in the 19 00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:05,600 Speaker 1: economy yet, which is where we're gonna go in just 20 00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:09,200 Speaker 1: second our buddy Alex Barrenson at one thirty PM. First 21 00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:12,319 Speaker 1: of all, he should be he should be almost drowning 22 00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:16,720 Speaker 1: in all of the I'm sorry, you were right. I 23 00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:20,640 Speaker 1: shouldn't have said all those things about you, handwritten notes, emails, 24 00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:23,760 Speaker 1: Facebook messages. Because on the vaccine we go back to 25 00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:26,760 Speaker 1: a year ago. We had people on the right clay 26 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:29,399 Speaker 1: reaching out to me privately like you gotta stop having 27 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,200 Speaker 1: Barrenson on, like he's way too negative on the vaccines. 28 00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:36,720 Speaker 1: If anything, not only was Alex mostly or entirely right, 29 00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 1: maybe he could have been even more negative, which goes 30 00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:43,000 Speaker 1: to show and he's joining us at one thirty I'm 31 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:45,399 Speaker 1: even afraid and we'll talk to him about this at 32 00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:49,880 Speaker 1: one thirty eastern. I'm even afraid that the fallout from 33 00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:54,280 Speaker 1: the COVID shots is really just starting and is going 34 00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:57,520 Speaker 1: to continue to get worse and worse in terms of 35 00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:03,080 Speaker 1: the health impact and long range effect of these COVID shots. 36 00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:06,720 Speaker 1: I think we're just starting to touch the surface of 37 00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:14,120 Speaker 1: what might, unfortunately be the biggest mass medical incident that 38 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:16,480 Speaker 1: was forced on our government of any of our lives. 39 00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 1: I'll put this, just this concept out there. Right. We 40 00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:25,679 Speaker 1: were told that this was basically a medical miracle. That's 41 00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:27,960 Speaker 1: what you'd have to call a vaccine that stops a 42 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 1: pandemic that has developed in less than a year, a 43 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:36,680 Speaker 1: medical miracle. And we know that they dramatically overstated its 44 00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:40,639 Speaker 1: protective powers. We know that that is a fact. What 45 00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:44,560 Speaker 1: did they do when it came to understatement of the negative? 46 00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:47,520 Speaker 1: That is something nobody wants to talk about on the left, 47 00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:50,919 Speaker 1: the Democrats, the Biden regime. To be sure, Alex will 48 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:54,120 Speaker 1: talk about it based on facts, data and science, because 49 00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:57,200 Speaker 1: there's still places, there are colleges out there in this 50 00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:01,480 Speaker 1: country that are requiring not just of vas, not like, oh, 51 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:03,280 Speaker 1: did you get the J and J a year ago? 52 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:06,760 Speaker 1: You're good? No, No, they're requiring the most up to 53 00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:11,160 Speaker 1: date omicron specific variant. These people are nuts. We're not 54 00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 1: even gonna be facing an omicron variant. But Clay can, 55 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:16,280 Speaker 1: I can. We let's hold them the COVID because you 56 00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:19,480 Speaker 1: and I will go COVID for three hours. Immigration crime, 57 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:23,120 Speaker 1: the board, I'm sorry, immigration crime, the economy. I gotta 58 00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:26,600 Speaker 1: make sure I get them right. And on the economy. 59 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:29,360 Speaker 1: You're just seeing this all over the place right now. 60 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:35,240 Speaker 1: Jerome Powell basically said yesterday we mentioned the seventy five 61 00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:38,800 Speaker 1: basis point rise. And just one thing that people should 62 00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:42,240 Speaker 1: keep in mind is that because of inflation and the 63 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:46,680 Speaker 1: need now to combat inflation, if you were thinking about 64 00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 1: buying a four hundred thousand dollar house, you know, nice house, 65 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:54,360 Speaker 1: three hundred thousand dollar house, you can basically have that 66 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 1: now with your budget if you're going to finance it. 67 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 1: That just puts it. That's one data point that I 68 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 1: think everybody should think about out is that if you're 69 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 1: looking at a four hundred thousand dollar house for your 70 00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 1: forever home, you're looking at a two hundred thousand dollar 71 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 1: house now, okay, And that's the reality of the economy 72 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 1: we're going into. But remember Clay. Yesterday, Powell, Jerome Powell, 73 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:17,160 Speaker 1: who's the FED chair, also said we're probably going to 74 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:22,279 Speaker 1: have some job losses coming up here. The tightening is happening. 75 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:26,280 Speaker 1: And I think that what everyone has to see is 76 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 1: whether it's Fetterman or it's Mark Kelly, a Fetterman in Pennsylvania, 77 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:36,720 Speaker 1: Mark Kelly running for the Senate in Arizona. These are 78 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:40,720 Speaker 1: just the high profile one Senate races. Cortez Masto in 79 00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:43,560 Speaker 1: Nevada against our friend Adam Laxalt, who will be with 80 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:47,160 Speaker 1: us tomorrow here on the show. They are just hoping 81 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 1: and doing everything they can to avoid the public's recognition 82 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:54,000 Speaker 1: that we are we are, we are in a recession. 83 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:58,120 Speaker 1: It's going to get worse, and Democrat policies are largely 84 00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:03,360 Speaker 1: to blame, and it's all pivoting from Trump despite their 85 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:08,480 Speaker 1: best efforts. Buck how quickly has what we told you yesterday? Oh, 86 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,800 Speaker 1: it's just a civil case and we'll maybe share some 87 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 1: other legal analysis out there of the Trump New York 88 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:21,039 Speaker 1: civil case that almost vanished immediately, right, I mean, it's like, oh, 89 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:23,640 Speaker 1: my goodness, and then people realize though, it's just a 90 00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:27,560 Speaker 1: civil case and it's gone. And abortion, I think is 91 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:32,160 Speaker 1: declining as an issue because the more people look at it, 92 00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:34,440 Speaker 1: the more you realize, well, this is going to be 93 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:37,720 Speaker 1: decided now on a state by state basis. And if 94 00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:42,480 Speaker 1: you're fired up about that issue, one you probably live, 95 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:46,200 Speaker 1: if you're super fired up about it, in a blue 96 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:50,080 Speaker 1: state where California New York are going to have even 97 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:53,760 Speaker 1: more expansive abortion rights than they did pre ro v Wade. 98 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:56,880 Speaker 1: And if you live in a red state, well, your 99 00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 1: red state is going to have a variety of different 100 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:01,920 Speaker 1: person effectives on it, but it's going to be decided 101 00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:04,320 Speaker 1: at a state level, and so I think that's not 102 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:08,560 Speaker 1: really resonating like Democrats were hoping that it might. Now 103 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 1: maybe that changes in the final forty seven days between 104 00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:14,040 Speaker 1: now and the election. But what everybody is focused on 105 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:17,599 Speaker 1: right now is inflation is not going away. Buck, six percent, 106 00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:20,719 Speaker 1: mortgage rates, even gas prices have now started to tick 107 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:24,480 Speaker 1: back up after going down. Grocery prices up thirteen point 108 00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:28,000 Speaker 1: five percent versus last year. I gotta give credit to 109 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:32,160 Speaker 1: the governors of Arizona, Texas and Florida who put the 110 00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:36,400 Speaker 1: the immigration back on the table by flying into all 111 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:40,280 Speaker 1: these different sanctuary cities, including Martha's Vineyard. Everybody's talking about 112 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:44,599 Speaker 1: that issue, and Buck, every single city and state in 113 00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:49,039 Speaker 1: America has got a story like the Eliza Fletcher story 114 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:53,720 Speaker 1: out of Memphis, like this Alley senior at at Baton 115 00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:55,960 Speaker 1: Rouge who appears to have been gunned down. She just 116 00:06:56,040 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 1: had her funeral yesterday. There is absolutely no suspect so 117 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:03,360 Speaker 1: far as I understand right now in Baton Rouge. Every 118 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:06,840 Speaker 1: city in America is drowning in crime. So are many 119 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:10,080 Speaker 1: mid sized places, so are many rural areas. And it 120 00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 1: is resonating in a big way. We will also talk 121 00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:16,000 Speaker 1: about the case of Kayler Ellingson, eighteen years old in 122 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:19,560 Speaker 1: North Dakota murdered. You know, someone ran him down, used 123 00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:21,680 Speaker 1: a car as a murder weapon. The guy who ran 124 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:26,000 Speaker 1: him down did it allegedly because he's a Republican, and 125 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:29,120 Speaker 1: this is getting very little media coverage. It's interesting Joe 126 00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:34,240 Speaker 1: Biden gives the most shockingly aggressive, hateful speech I have 127 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:36,480 Speaker 1: ever seen from a president. Ye I mean there are 128 00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:39,560 Speaker 1: Obama speeches that annoyed me that I thought were just 129 00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 1: you know, that we're unhelpful for the country. But he 130 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:46,040 Speaker 1: never stood with you know, Marines as props and bright 131 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 1: red lighting and screamed about how MAGA Republicans were basically 132 00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 1: enemies of the republic. I mean, this is a whole 133 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 1: other level. And just a few weeks past something like 134 00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:57,960 Speaker 1: this happens. Now, I know that generally we don't do 135 00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:01,920 Speaker 1: the well, you know, we to ourselves Republicans, GOP conservatives. 136 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:04,560 Speaker 1: We don't say that people are responsible for the actions 137 00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:08,480 Speaker 1: of others based upon rhetoric. But we all know that 138 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 1: if Trump was president and had given a speech that 139 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:16,040 Speaker 1: was legitimately you know, infuriating and full of fury and 140 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:18,360 Speaker 1: something like this happened to be a huge national news story. 141 00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:21,000 Speaker 1: Democrats be talking about it every single day. We'll get 142 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:23,680 Speaker 1: into that because Clay, you are so right. It is 143 00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 1: so important on the crime issue. People. Every GOP candidate 144 00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 1: in every state, every city, every county needs to be 145 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:34,560 Speaker 1: running ads on this. My friends, we have a system 146 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 1: where accountability only comes at the ballot box. For these Yes, 147 00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 1: accountability only happens in this election. If they get away 148 00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:46,680 Speaker 1: with it, then the Democrats get away with months of 149 00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:51,680 Speaker 1: riots with I would argue election interference just based upon 150 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 1: the threat of what would happen to the country if 151 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:58,600 Speaker 1: Joe Biden didn't win, and all the underfunding of police, 152 00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:03,199 Speaker 1: the defunding of police, abolishing law enforcement, the progressive prosecutors. 153 00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:07,800 Speaker 1: People are dying because of this. I am less safe 154 00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:11,480 Speaker 1: walking around the streets of New York City right now 155 00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 1: because of this, Clay, like this hits home. You know, 156 00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:17,680 Speaker 1: if you were in downtown Nashville, you have the same situation. 157 00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:20,680 Speaker 1: You've got a progressive prosecutor there. We are all less 158 00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:23,640 Speaker 1: safe because of them. Does it matter to you or not? 159 00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:25,640 Speaker 1: That's the question I want everyone to think about. Does 160 00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:28,200 Speaker 1: your safety your family safety matter. If the answer is yes, 161 00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:30,840 Speaker 1: we need all of you to turn out, we need 162 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:33,480 Speaker 1: this midterm to matter. I'll tell I'll give you an 163 00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:36,200 Speaker 1: example of how this is impacting my own life. I 164 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 1: talked to my wife last night. She was going to 165 00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:42,640 Speaker 1: be coming home later than normal, and I said, how 166 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:46,080 Speaker 1: close are you parked and do you have enough gas? 167 00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 1: Because I don't want you getting going to the gas 168 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:54,120 Speaker 1: station anywhere near downtown Nashville right now, because crime is 169 00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 1: out of control all over the country. I want you 170 00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 1: going to the gas station near our house. And I 171 00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:02,080 Speaker 1: bet there are a lot of husbands. I bet there 172 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 1: are a lot of dads. I bet there are a 173 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 1: lot of fathers out there that are having that exact 174 00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:12,120 Speaker 1: conversation with the women in their lives because of what 175 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:16,640 Speaker 1: we're seeing happen to completely one hundred percent innocent people, 176 00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:18,760 Speaker 1: right we're not talking. I wish that there was not, 177 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:22,679 Speaker 1: you know, guys who were involved in issues of violence 178 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:25,520 Speaker 1: and drugs and and things like that getting shot in 179 00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:30,240 Speaker 1: the country. But when you are engaged in violent illegal behavior, 180 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:34,200 Speaker 1: it's not particularly a surprise that violent illegal behavior might 181 00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:37,440 Speaker 1: follow you and find you in your life. But we 182 00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 1: got people, and I just I want to make it 183 00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:41,559 Speaker 1: clear that we need to be focusing on this all 184 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:45,920 Speaker 1: over the nation. Every single city, every single state in America, 185 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:51,040 Speaker 1: every congressional district, every place out there, there is someone 186 00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:55,239 Speaker 1: who is one hundred percent innocent that is being attacked 187 00:10:55,280 --> 00:11:00,160 Speaker 1: and killed because crime murder is up over forty percent 188 00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:04,240 Speaker 1: buck since twenty nineteen. Think about how crazy that is nationwide, 189 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 1: over forty percent, biggest increase we've ever seen in a 190 00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:13,239 Speaker 1: couple of years in any of our lives the FBI data, 191 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:16,560 Speaker 1: And it's not getting better in many places. And there 192 00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:20,319 Speaker 1: are many of us who are either changing our behaviors 193 00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:23,920 Speaker 1: or encouraging others in our lives, our loved ones, to 194 00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:26,440 Speaker 1: be changing their behavior in a way that we haven't 195 00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:28,480 Speaker 1: done for years. I've never talked with my wife about 196 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:31,160 Speaker 1: whether she went to fill up gas before. I've never 197 00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:34,439 Speaker 1: thought about it in the past. But I think there 198 00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 1: are a lot of places, particularly in cities right now 199 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:38,920 Speaker 1: where police aren't able to do their job, that have 200 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:41,880 Speaker 1: become killing fields, and people one hundred percent innocent are 201 00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 1: getting killed every single day who've done nothing wrong than 202 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 1: happening to go phillip gas the wrong place. And I 203 00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:53,000 Speaker 1: think that COVID and the lockdowns and the Anti Inflation Act, 204 00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:57,120 Speaker 1: and the Democrats claiming from the White House that the 205 00:11:57,160 --> 00:12:01,080 Speaker 1: border is secure should all be reminders to people that 206 00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:04,600 Speaker 1: all of us suffering because of their idiocy doesn't change 207 00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:08,520 Speaker 1: their actions. They just they'll just live in a delusional state. 208 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:11,560 Speaker 1: They'll all they want is to keep power. If you 209 00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:14,760 Speaker 1: want this stuff to change, you have to take power 210 00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:17,160 Speaker 1: from the people making the bad decisions. You have to 211 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:20,600 Speaker 1: remove them from power and have sane people replace them, 212 00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 1: pleading with them even when we can all see the consequences, 213 00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:26,959 Speaker 1: which anyone can right now in the country. You'll notice, 214 00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:30,599 Speaker 1: is there a single Democrat who's doing monologues on MSNBC 215 00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:34,000 Speaker 1: or CNN or wherever on podcasts who are saying, what 216 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:37,319 Speaker 1: a great presidency Joe Biden's had. He's really kicking, but 217 00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:41,240 Speaker 1: the economy is roaring, things are amazing. No, why because 218 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:44,360 Speaker 1: they'd be laughed at because a possible case to me, 219 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:47,600 Speaker 1: did you see him coming off the stage again yesterday 220 00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:50,480 Speaker 1: when he was confused lost? I mean, yeah, they don't care. 221 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:53,920 Speaker 1: They just set him out in a wheelchair, drooling his 222 00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:56,840 Speaker 1: apple sauce on himself and say vote Joe Biden. They 223 00:12:56,960 --> 00:13:00,240 Speaker 1: don't care. It literally was this weekend, but that he 224 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:02,199 Speaker 1: was saying, watch me if you don't think I can 225 00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:05,959 Speaker 1: do the job. And for anybody who didn't see that 226 00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,719 Speaker 1: most recent video, you can go at Clay Travis. I'm 227 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:10,080 Speaker 1: sure we'll put it up at Clay and Buck. He 228 00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:12,199 Speaker 1: finishes his speech.

It is alarming to 234 00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:32,400 Speaker 1: an incredible degree that this is where the president's cognitive 235 00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:35,160 Speaker 1: state appears to be come back into all of us.

Buck and Good news out of the state 285 00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:14,000 Speaker 1: of Nevada, where there is a poll now showing that 286 00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:17,880 Speaker 1: our friend Nevada Laxalt, I'm eventually going to pronounce it correctly, 287 00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:24,320 Speaker 1: but in the meantime, from that state, Adam Laxalt is 288 00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:27,840 Speaker 1: now in the lead according to a poll that came 289 00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:31,160 Speaker 1: out today. If you look at the gambling markets, it's 290 00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:35,880 Speaker 1: essentially moving into a fifty fifty scenario. And Buck. One 291 00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:38,520 Speaker 1: of the theories that I would have going forward is, 292 00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:42,920 Speaker 1: I think I said this yesterday. I feel like Republicans 293 00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:46,320 Speaker 1: are gonna win in Nevada, They're gonna win in Arizona, 294 00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:50,680 Speaker 1: they are gonna win in Georgia, which would be three flips. 295 00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:54,800 Speaker 1: And I think hold Wisconsin, our friend Ron Johnson, and 296 00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:57,000 Speaker 1: I think doctor Oz is going to end up taking 297 00:16:57,040 --> 00:17:01,520 Speaker 1: down Fetterman, which would mean that Publicans in that scenario, 298 00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:05,879 Speaker 1: if I am correct, would pick up three seats. I 299 00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:10,360 Speaker 1: think Washington, we had Tiffany Smiley on, could end up competitive, 300 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:14,440 Speaker 1: and I think New Hampshire is going to be competitive. 301 00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:17,720 Speaker 1: So among others, Colorado, there's some others out there worth 302 00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:21,439 Speaker 1: paying attention to if this red tide continues to build. 303 00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:23,680 Speaker 1: But a lot of the numbers are starting to look 304 00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:26,320 Speaker 1: very favorable. As you look at these different states, I 305 00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:29,920 Speaker 1: certainly hope that's correct. That would be about as that's 306 00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:32,359 Speaker 1: a super red wave that is like, that's like the 307 00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:35,840 Speaker 1: wave at the end of Point Break that body decides 308 00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:38,040 Speaker 1: to ride to his demise. For those of you who 309 00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:40,480 Speaker 1: are Point Break fans, it's a great movie from back 310 00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:42,720 Speaker 1: in the day with Keanu is a great movie. But 311 00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:45,080 Speaker 1: that would be the massive What you just described is 312 00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:47,760 Speaker 1: the best possible scenario. If we want to get there, 313 00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:50,920 Speaker 1: Everyone's got to focus, and I mean everyone you listening 314 00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:53,840 Speaker 1: to this, focus in on this, Get your friends, your 315 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:57,359 Speaker 1: family to the polls.

He 323 00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:24,840 Speaker 1: was just twenty five years old when he gave his 324 00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:28,600 Speaker 1: life serving our country. Corporal Greer was survived by his 325 00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:31,840 Speaker 1: wife and their children. Tunnel of the Towers paid off 326 00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:35,720 Speaker 1: the Greer Families mortgage.

We had mentioned this before, and it's 336 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:07,199 Speaker 1: one of these stories that is getting nowhere near the 337 00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:12,399 Speaker 1: attention that it would if the political affiliations, if the 338 00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:17,920 Speaker 1: political reality was just a little different. A North Dakota man, 339 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:23,720 Speaker 1: obviously a Democrat in this situation named Shannon Brandt called 340 00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:27,320 Speaker 1: the North Dakota Highway Patrol on Sunday saying that he 341 00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:32,520 Speaker 1: had struck a pedestrian in an alleyway in mckenry with 342 00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:36,600 Speaker 1: his two thousand and three Ford Explorer. And what he 343 00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:40,359 Speaker 1: really meant by that is allegedly he used his car 344 00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:45,360 Speaker 1: as a weapon and ran this individual, Kayler Ellingson, eighteen 345 00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:49,399 Speaker 1: years old, down murdered him with his car. That is 346 00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:54,440 Speaker 1: the allegation. Brandt claimed at the time that Ellgson Ellingson 347 00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:58,840 Speaker 1: was part of a Republican extremist group. This is according 348 00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:03,120 Speaker 1: to the Highway Patrol report. What really happened here was 349 00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:08,000 Speaker 1: again from the police report, there was an argument over 350 00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:15,040 Speaker 1: politics and this individual, who is clearly left wing, Shannon Brandt, 351 00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:20,959 Speaker 1: ran down this eighteen year old and killed him allegedly 352 00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:22,960 Speaker 1: in cold blood here. I mean, that's saying this obviously 353 00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:26,399 Speaker 1: there's a legal implications. You know, you have to always 354 00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:31,640 Speaker 1: say until there's actually a conviction. But Clay, we all 355 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:35,640 Speaker 1: understand that if this were different, if a guy in 356 00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:41,480 Speaker 1: a metaphorical or real MAGA hat had run down some Democrat, 357 00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:45,080 Speaker 1: a Hillary voter in his car because they had had 358 00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:49,480 Speaker 1: an argument over politics, we would be told by CNN 359 00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:53,560 Speaker 1: and MSNBC and The New York Times that we need 360 00:20:53,600 --> 00:21:01,199 Speaker 1: a national conversation about the threat of MAGA extremism, white supremacy. 361 00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:04,440 Speaker 1: Even the two guys involved here, white doesn't matter. White supremacy, 362 00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:08,120 Speaker 1: MAGA extremism, this is the political violence that they put 363 00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:11,360 Speaker 1: right at the feet of Donald Trump himself. Joe Biden 364 00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:15,960 Speaker 1: gave he looked like the Emperor Palpatine from Star Wars. 365 00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:21,360 Speaker 1: The theatrics around this, it did honestly look like Stalin 366 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:24,280 Speaker 1: was giving a speech in the darkest days of the 367 00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:27,199 Speaker 1: Soviet Union, when the purge was going on, and a 368 00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:30,520 Speaker 1: couple of weeks later this happens. Now the left would 369 00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:33,760 Speaker 1: connect those dots if the political affiliation was different. How 370 00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:36,560 Speaker 1: many people have even heard about the story, or more 371 00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:39,320 Speaker 1: to the point, how many have seen a major news 372 00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:44,119 Speaker 1: network other than Fox even touch on this story. Well, 373 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:46,960 Speaker 1: there's a bunch of things here. First, you're a hundred 374 00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:51,080 Speaker 1: percent right, because we know this one person I believe 375 00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:53,080 Speaker 1: I'm correct, Buck, you can correct me if I'm wrong, 376 00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:57,439 Speaker 1: died in Charlottesville, and it was laid directly at Donald 377 00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:01,320 Speaker 1: Trump's feet because he had the audacity to come out 378 00:22:01,359 --> 00:22:04,200 Speaker 1: and say, which you go back and look at the transcript, 379 00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:07,160 Speaker 1: that many of the people, which he was correct, who 380 00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:10,480 Speaker 1: were protesting the removal of statues were right, and that 381 00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:13,320 Speaker 1: this wasn't going to end with Confederate statues. And it 382 00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:16,359 Speaker 1: would move on to Thomas Jefferson and George Washington and 383 00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:20,680 Speaker 1: even Abraham Lincoln. He was one hundred percent right about that. 384 00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:24,560 Speaker 1: What I think it's fair to call woke history and 385 00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:26,760 Speaker 1: the way that it's being attributed and the lie is 386 00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:29,640 Speaker 1: why Joe Biden ran for president justsoever, remember Joe Biden 387 00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:33,159 Speaker 1: said because based on that lie, The lie was that 388 00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:37,400 Speaker 1: Trump had called these Nazi protesters very fine people. He 389 00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:40,200 Speaker 1: did not. He pointed out that there were very fine 390 00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:44,400 Speaker 1: people on both sides, which was accurate. He directly condemned 391 00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:47,040 Speaker 1: neo Nazis and everybody else. Go look at the transcribe. 392 00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:49,880 Speaker 1: This is one of the great lies that was spread 393 00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:54,400 Speaker 1: by the media to attack Trump, so we know he 394 00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:57,600 Speaker 1: was held completely responsible for the death of I believe 395 00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:02,119 Speaker 1: that woman in Charlottesville. This story is receiving no attention 396 00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:04,640 Speaker 1: to the New York Times, no attention at CNN, no 397 00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:08,320 Speaker 1: attention at the Washington Post. Okay, and frankly, we need 398 00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:10,920 Speaker 1: to get some answers from the North Dakota politicians about 399 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:13,760 Speaker 1: what exactly is going on here, buck because this guy 400 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:17,479 Speaker 1: was only charged with vehicular homicide, which seems like a 401 00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:22,880 Speaker 1: relatively low charge, and he's out on bail fifty thousand dollars. 402 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:26,240 Speaker 1: Buck All he had to post was fifty thousand dollars 403 00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:29,359 Speaker 1: and he's already out on bail now. Maybe, to be fair, 404 00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:33,840 Speaker 1: there are some details and circumstances surrounding this case that 405 00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:37,359 Speaker 1: are not yet public that would justify that being the case. 406 00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:43,840 Speaker 1: But this is a red state where a Republican supporter was, 407 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:46,879 Speaker 1: based on the details that are out right now, killed 408 00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:50,520 Speaker 1: based on his politics. How in the world are North 409 00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:53,639 Speaker 1: Dakota politicians not speaking out about this, How is the 410 00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:56,560 Speaker 1: ag not speaking out, How is the governor not speaking 411 00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:59,960 Speaker 1: out aggressively? And how does a guy get a vehicule 412 00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:04,120 Speaker 1: or homicide charge for what appears to be an intentional murder? 413 00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:05,960 Speaker 1: And how does he get it? How is he already 414 00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:08,399 Speaker 1: back out on the streets for a fifty thousand dollars 415 00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:11,440 Speaker 1: bail now? Again, I want to be clear. If there 416 00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:13,959 Speaker 1: are details in this case that are not yet public 417 00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:16,480 Speaker 1: that can explain that, we will share them on this show. 418 00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:19,400 Speaker 1: But Buck, I looked into this pretty aggressively. I'm sure 419 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:22,240 Speaker 1: you have as well. I haven't seen anything that would 420 00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:25,560 Speaker 1: suggest this is anything other than what has been reported 421 00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:28,840 Speaker 1: so far. This is hate crime? Is another question we 422 00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:32,640 Speaker 1: might want to pose for everybody killing somebody over politics. 423 00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:36,920 Speaker 1: It actually is something that the left would argue is terrorism. 424 00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:39,159 Speaker 1: They would say that this guy is If he were 425 00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:42,320 Speaker 1: a Republican who killed a Democrat over a political fight, 426 00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:45,280 Speaker 1: this would be labeled terrorism. It would also be on 427 00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:47,520 Speaker 1: the front page of the newspaper. It would have been 428 00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:51,520 Speaker 1: a lead story for multiple days. Maga extremism. How this 429 00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:54,040 Speaker 1: is a natural result, out growth of everything that Trump 430 00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:55,520 Speaker 1: has said. And look, I mean, we're a country a 431 00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:58,520 Speaker 1: three hundred and thirty million people, although given all the 432 00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:01,119 Speaker 1: illegal immigration, who knows what the real number is. But 433 00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:03,399 Speaker 1: we're a country of three hundred and thirty million people, 434 00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:09,080 Speaker 1: and one individual's actions should not be placed at the 435 00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:12,359 Speaker 1: feet of an entire political ideology. That is true. But 436 00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:14,439 Speaker 1: the problem is the Democrats do that to us all 437 00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:17,639 Speaker 1: the time, every time, and even sometimes when there's somebody 438 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:21,000 Speaker 1: who is in no way actually a conservative or a Republican, 439 00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:23,600 Speaker 1: but you know, they had a couple of right leaning 440 00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:27,320 Speaker 1: views on something. You know, they believe in secure borders. 441 00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:29,959 Speaker 1: They're a terrorist. Oh my gosh, it's Donald Trump's fault, right, 442 00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:34,159 Speaker 1: whatever it may be, they will make the leaps necessary 443 00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:37,399 Speaker 1: because they see all this as political warfare. Friends, you 444 00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:40,119 Speaker 1: have to understand it. It's not about what's true for 445 00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:44,080 Speaker 1: the true leftist these days, for the commies that are 446 00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:46,280 Speaker 1: in our midst whatever they have to do to achieve 447 00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:50,040 Speaker 1: political power they think is inherently justified. Our media certainly 448 00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:52,919 Speaker 1: is in that category right now. They believe that lying 449 00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:59,680 Speaker 1: is a necessary step in defeating the Maga extremism that 450 00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:03,840 Speaker 1: has swept through the country. And they won't stop and say, 451 00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:06,840 Speaker 1: while Joe Biden's actually really bad at this and we 452 00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:11,119 Speaker 1: shouldn't be supporting some of these idiotic policies, notably on 453 00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:13,720 Speaker 1: the crime issue. I mean, I want to get into 454 00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:16,479 Speaker 1: if you want to come back into there's a story 455 00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:21,480 Speaker 1: out of the Fox affiliate in LA about business owner 456 00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:24,120 Speaker 1: who who describes what's like what's it like to try 457 00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:26,719 Speaker 1: to run a business right now in Los Angeles? And 458 00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:28,760 Speaker 1: it's the same thing that it's like to when you 459 00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:31,040 Speaker 1: know a business that's open to the public, you know, 460 00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:35,159 Speaker 1: to run a store or run a pharmacy. What's it 461 00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:37,960 Speaker 1: like these days in major cities in America? What's the 462 00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:39,199 Speaker 1: kind of stuff you have to put up with? Him? 463 00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:43,040 Speaker 1: In clay the stuff that people are dealing with day 464 00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:46,399 Speaker 1: in and day out because the Democrats refuse to enforce laws, 465 00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:50,919 Speaker 1: refuse to actually lock people up for the behavior that 466 00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:53,879 Speaker 1: is destroying peace of mind for millions of people in 467 00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:57,679 Speaker 1: society right now. This is something that everyone needs to 468 00:26:57,680 --> 00:26:59,600 Speaker 1: know about, everyone needs to be talking about. It's happened. 469 00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:01,840 Speaker 1: It happened to me here in New York. It's crazy. 470 00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:04,119 Speaker 1: I got people screaming crazy things on the street. I 471 00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:07,040 Speaker 1: have friends who are carrying folding blades now walking around 472 00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:10,480 Speaker 1: Midtown Manhattan because they're concerned for their safety. That wasn't 473 00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:13,160 Speaker 1: true five years ago. I just said that I had 474 00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:15,000 Speaker 1: to have a conversation with my wife about what gas 475 00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:18,000 Speaker 1: station she's using in our hometown. I've never had those 476 00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:22,280 Speaker 1: conversations before with her, and that's because our modern era 477 00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:24,560 Speaker 1: right now, we're living at a high rate of crime 478 00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:26,760 Speaker 1: that we, let frankly, haven't ever seen before. And I 479 00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:29,040 Speaker 1: think a lot of people are making those choices everywhere, 480 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:32,879 Speaker 1: and unfortunately our president, well, Joe Biden, if you watched 481 00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:36,240 Speaker 1: him stumbling around on the stage, he looks like he 482 00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:40,480 Speaker 1: has no testosterone. Every single person in the Biden administration 483 00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:44,159 Speaker 1: actually who is male, looks like he has no testosterone. 484 00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:47,159 Speaker 1: I watched Biden flailing around on the stage, and I 485 00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:50,520 Speaker 1: thought to myself, I really wish that Chalk would send 486 00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:53,280 Speaker 1: them everything they got. Maybe we can just load him 487 00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:55,200 Speaker 1: up so the next time he's on the phone with 488 00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:58,960 Speaker 1: Chairman z Or he's on the phone talking to Vladimir 489 00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:02,480 Speaker 1: Putin get at the UN trying to look tough. Maybe 490 00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:05,600 Speaker 1: he can at least have some ounce of masculinity still 491 00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:08,760 Speaker 1: left in him. And right now, how many people out 492 00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:11,520 Speaker 1: there could use this product from Chalk.

One more time, go 506 00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:03,880 Speaker 1: to this website right now, see a q dot com 507 00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:06,959 Speaker 1: Welcome back in Klay Travis buck Sexton Show, appreciate all 508 00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:08,920 Speaker 1: of you hanging out with us, and we roll through 509 00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:13,440 Speaker 1: the Thursday edition of the program. We talked earlier in 510 00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:15,840 Speaker 1: this hour about how no matter where you are in 511 00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:20,240 Speaker 1: the country, there is a murder that has occurred in 512 00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:24,920 Speaker 1: the last several months of a completely innocent person that 513 00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:30,000 Speaker 1: has made substantial news in your community. Everywhere it is happening, 514 00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:34,120 Speaker 1: and part of it is just the lawlessness in general 515 00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:38,800 Speaker 1: that is existing in much of our country. Since twenty nineteen, 516 00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:45,640 Speaker 1: murders are up over forty percent nationwide, many cities doubling, tripling, 517 00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:49,200 Speaker 1: setting all time highs. I mean, it's through the roof. 518 00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:52,680 Speaker 1: Democrats are making a ploy now to try to pass 519 00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:55,959 Speaker 1: bills to give more money to police. The irony here, 520 00:29:56,000 --> 00:30:01,000 Speaker 1: of course, is that Joe Biden's probably best vote and 521 00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:05,400 Speaker 1: achievement was the nineteen ninety four Crime Bill, which brought 522 00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:09,720 Speaker 1: down crime enormously in the country by allowing police to 523 00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:13,200 Speaker 1: do their jobs, and then he had to repudiate that 524 00:30:13,280 --> 00:30:17,440 Speaker 1: vote as a method to win the Democrat nomination in 525 00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:22,640 Speaker 1: twenty twenty. But it's not only crimes of extreme violence, 526 00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:28,520 Speaker 1: it's also just basic cleanliness. The ability to actually run 527 00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:32,480 Speaker 1: a business. And I believe we have an LA small 528 00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:36,800 Speaker 1: business owner talking about the challenge in our nation's second 529 00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:40,560 Speaker 1: largest city of just running a small business in this 530 00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:45,160 Speaker 1: era of lawlessness. Listen in Sherman Oaks, California. If you 531 00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:47,200 Speaker 1: play what I said, you got an you really got 532 00:30:47,200 --> 00:30:50,040 Speaker 1: it off the homelessness crisis. You gotta get your half 533 00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:52,280 Speaker 1: naked ass out of my restaurant right now, as business 534 00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:56,360 Speaker 1: owners closing up shops and employees fearing for their safety. 535 00:30:56,520 --> 00:30:58,120 Speaker 1: But they come in, you know, tweaking out and things 536 00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:00,080 Speaker 1: that had needs to so you know you've never oh 537 00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:01,920 Speaker 1: it's gonna get here on the tour, they've dealt with 538 00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:06,320 Speaker 1: fires caused by the unhoused aggression on a daily basil. 539 00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:09,440 Speaker 1: Every single morning. I'm wiping that off my property before 540 00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:11,640 Speaker 1: i have to do business. Sir, Why are you throwing 541 00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:15,040 Speaker 1: feces at people every day? It's like another adventure of 542 00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:16,960 Speaker 1: one flow over the Cooper's nest. It is like a 543 00:31:17,320 --> 00:31:20,720 Speaker 1: psych literally a psych work. That's okay. Cooping on the street, 544 00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:23,480 Speaker 1: peeing on the street, having sex on the street, making 545 00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:28,040 Speaker 1: threats without a weapon is okay now Sherman Oaks, California. 546 00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:30,920 Speaker 1: For those of you who don't know. This ain't a 547 00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:35,320 Speaker 1: rough neighborhood typically of LA. It's used to be a 548 00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:39,240 Speaker 1: fairly nice area. Buck. I also saw Bill Walton. You 549 00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:41,240 Speaker 1: may remember the name Bill Walton. He was a big 550 00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:47,360 Speaker 1: time UCLA basketball player, super super lib. Typically he's gone 551 00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:49,560 Speaker 1: off in San Diego, one of the cities where we're 552 00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:53,440 Speaker 1: number one in Thanks, Good morning San Diego, Thanks to 553 00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:58,160 Speaker 1: everybody out there. Look, the situation is so bad that 554 00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:02,440 Speaker 1: even left wingers are like Bill Walton, Hey, we've got 555 00:32:02,440 --> 00:32:07,200 Speaker 1: to have some sanity on our streets, some rule of law, 556 00:32:07,560 --> 00:32:11,680 Speaker 1: and they're losing their minds over what's happening everywhere. You 557 00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:17,040 Speaker 1: can't have a well functioning, happy and productive society over 558 00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:21,400 Speaker 1: the long term if people can live on the streets, 559 00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:25,880 Speaker 1: shoot drugs up in front of children, and throw feces 560 00:32:25,920 --> 00:32:28,880 Speaker 1: at passers by. This may come as a shock to 561 00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:32,280 Speaker 1: a lot of Democrats. It turns out that this doesn't 562 00:32:32,320 --> 00:32:36,600 Speaker 1: make us more progressive and happier and healthier. Allowing this 563 00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:40,479 Speaker 1: decay and lawlessness and in many ways actually encouraging it 564 00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:43,240 Speaker 1: by the policies they've pursued. It's top to bottom claiming 565 00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:45,360 Speaker 1: look at what they've done. You can take it city 566 00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:48,400 Speaker 1: by city. We were just talking about Portland. We've obviously 567 00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:52,600 Speaker 1: got Oregon a governor's race that is possible for a 568 00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:55,280 Speaker 1: Republican to win. What they've done there, they've made it 569 00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:58,719 Speaker 1: so you can they They've decriminalized drugs, they've allowed camping 570 00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:01,840 Speaker 1: on the streets, They've allowed theft to go without stealing 571 00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:05,040 Speaker 1: from businesses to go without punishment. That allowed public disorder, 572 00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:10,160 Speaker 1: public urination, public defication, simple assaults not prosecuted, armed robberies 573 00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:13,160 Speaker 1: not prosecuted heavily enough. You go down the list and 574 00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:14,800 Speaker 1: you want to look at every live and say, what 575 00:33:14,840 --> 00:33:17,800 Speaker 1: the hell are you people doing? What is wrong with you? 576 00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:20,280 Speaker 1: And this is why Lee's Elvin, who are probably gonna 577 00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:22,720 Speaker 1: be talking to maybe next week, has a real shot 578 00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:24,240 Speaker 1: in New York. I mean, New York State has a 579 00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:29,800 Speaker 1: huge Democrat advantage, but enough Democrats realize this whole defund 580 00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:35,240 Speaker 1: the police hashtag BLM stuff has done nothing but immiserate people, 581 00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:38,800 Speaker 1: destroy businesses, and result in a lot more theft, rape 582 00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:42,280 Speaker 1: and murder across the country. That is the end result. 583 00:33:42,360 --> 00:33:44,640 Speaker 1: That is what we are seeing. And the problem that 584 00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:48,320 Speaker 1: everyoneest understand is these progressive das, they're not just gonna stop. 585 00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:51,440 Speaker 1: They think we haven't suffered enough. They think eventually we'll 586 00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:55,520 Speaker 1: turn the corner with these weak policies and the pandering 587 00:33:55,680 --> 00:33:59,040 Speaker 1: and the social justice. So we again, we either care 588 00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:01,800 Speaker 1: about this or keep suffering. Right, That's what happens as 589 00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:05,480 Speaker 1: a country. And that's why I think we're having as 590 00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:08,759 Speaker 1: we're forty seven days out from the mid term. It's 591 00:34:08,840 --> 00:34:12,520 Speaker 1: why I believe, and I really do think this, that 592 00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:16,440 Speaker 1: everything is starting to come together to create this red tide, 593 00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:20,839 Speaker 1: this red wave that everybody said, oh, it's getting tamped down, 594 00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:24,000 Speaker 1: it's not going to happen. Actually, if you're starting to 595 00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:28,719 Speaker 1: look starting to look at these individual state by state races, 596 00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:33,960 Speaker 1: you know when it started to turn Buck the Biden speech, 597 00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:37,520 Speaker 1: the Biden standing in front of the big red backdrop 598 00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:40,759 Speaker 1: looked like to spawn a satan. That is when things 599 00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:44,560 Speaker 1: started to turn. Now, I partly think Buck, that's because 600 00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:47,799 Speaker 1: we said this might very well happen. People got back 601 00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:50,520 Speaker 1: into their school cycles, they got done with the summer, 602 00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:54,080 Speaker 1: and everybody around Labor Day starts to pivot towards the 603 00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:56,880 Speaker 1: mid terms and the closing arguments start to get made, 604 00:34:57,280 --> 00:34:59,479 Speaker 1: And I think that factored in in a big way. 605 00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:03,680 Speaker 1: But my goodness, Like when you actually start to look, 606 00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:06,319 Speaker 1: there is the possibility that this red wave, which I 607 00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:11,399 Speaker 1: believe is building buck could sweep out in Washington, Oregon, Colorado. 608 00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:14,480 Speaker 1: There are a lot of places where there's lingering potential here. 609 00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:17,879 Speaker 1: I mean, let me just I'm reminded of the stupidity 610 00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:21,239 Speaker 1: of democrats. I live in Midtown Manhattan. I'm born and 611 00:35:21,360 --> 00:35:24,279 Speaker 1: raised here. I worked for the NYPD. Like I know 612 00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:28,040 Speaker 1: this city, right, Clay. I walk around. I'm going through 613 00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:29,839 Speaker 1: Time Square all the time because I happen to live 614 00:35:29,880 --> 00:35:34,560 Speaker 1: in Midtown, and I'll be presented with a gun free 615 00:35:34,680 --> 00:35:37,319 Speaker 1: zone sign these days, right, I walk past the gun 616 00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:41,440 Speaker 1: So I even if I can get a concealed carry permit, 617 00:35:41,480 --> 00:35:43,080 Speaker 1: which they will slow walk and it will take me 618 00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:45,920 Speaker 1: years to get. If I had a concealed carry permit 619 00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:49,359 Speaker 1: and I'm walking around my own neighborhood at night, they 620 00:35:49,400 --> 00:35:52,719 Speaker 1: would arrest me for going into Time Square as a 621 00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:55,600 Speaker 1: gun free zone. While people are shooting up Heroin on 622 00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:58,720 Speaker 1: the corner. People are getting robbed at gunpoint and knife point, 623 00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:01,960 Speaker 1: and Kathee Hope thinks, yeah, social justice, this is good. 624 00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:05,759 Speaker 1: These people are lunatics, my friends. Yeah, this is what 625 00:36:05,800 --> 00:36:08,680 Speaker 1: you have to understand. They don't want to accept that 626 00:36:08,760 --> 00:36:12,879 Speaker 1: their ideas and their policies result in suffering and lawlessness 627 00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:17,040 Speaker 1: and chaos. They because they're also worried about victims out 628 00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:21,359 Speaker 1: there of social justice, or rather of the lack of it. 629 00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:24,400 Speaker 1: They don't care about what's actually happening in these cities. 630 00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:28,040 Speaker 1: They're worried about the agenda. Yeah, speaking of that. When 631 00:36:28,040 --> 00:36:29,680 Speaker 1: we come back, we're going to be joined by J. 632 00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:33,359 Speaker 1: Jd Vance. He's running for the Senate in Ohio. He's 633 00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:36,000 Speaker 1: going to win, but what is he seeing on the 634 00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:39,480 Speaker 1: streets of Ohio? What does he believe are the issues 635 00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:43,480 Speaker 1: that are central to Republicans taking back control of the Senate. 636 00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:46,160 Speaker 1: We will discuss all that and more with him from 637 00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:47,719 Speaker 1: next here on Claim Buck
