Speaker 1: You are entering the freedom hunt. There is no second spike.
Speaker 1: Public health is the new climate change. Media rallies against
Speaker 1: Trump rallies Court General Flinn's appeal. Today J. K. Rowling
Speaker 1: believes women are real and who's actually gonna end up
Speaker 1: stealing this election? This is the buck Sexton Show where
Speaker 1: the mission where mission is to decode what really matters
Speaker 1: with actionable intelligence. Make no mistake America, You're a great American.
Speaker 1: Again the buck Sexton Show begins. Analyst, he's a great guy. Now,
Speaker 1: welcome to buck Sexton Show. Everyone, Thank you so much
Speaker 1: for being here. My, oh my, I had I had
Speaker 1: quite a morning. We a lot to get to today.
Speaker 1: I want to dive into what I have been predicting
Speaker 1: on this show for a while. Now you knew it
Speaker 1: would happen, you know, it was just a function of time.
Speaker 1: The second spike discussion. We went from the second wave
Speaker 1: now it's a spike because that sounds scarier, just in
Speaker 1: time for Trump rallies. Oh what a surprise. Who could
Speaker 1: have imagined that such a thing would happen. But now
Speaker 1: I have to tell you I spent my morning listening
Speaker 1: to the oral arguments in the General Flint case Now
Speaker 1: this may sound a little bit like, oh, come on,
Speaker 1: how how interesting could that be? Oh? No, it was fascinating.
Speaker 1: I was sitting there drinking my black Rifle coffee and
Speaker 1: listening to the oral arguments in DC at the DC
Speaker 1: Circuit Court of Appeals, and sure enough, one thing became
Speaker 1: very clear. There is no principle or institution that liberals
Speaker 1: that the left the Democrat are unwilling to tear down.
Speaker 1: There's no institution or principle they will not destroy for
Speaker 1: just a few sweet moments of hashtag resistance glory. Doesn't
Speaker 1: sound like the Flynn case is going to be resolved
Speaker 1: by the appeals court. I could be wrong on that.
Speaker 1: That's a prediction. We'll have to see, but at this
Speaker 1: stage it doesn't seem to me like that's likely because
Speaker 1: of what was said in the arguments that were being made.
Speaker 1: And let's just be clear that to continue the case
Speaker 1: against Flynn, the libs here in this case, Judge Sullivan
Speaker 1: is Amycus Buddy former Judge Gleason, and Beth Wilkinson, the
Speaker 1: lawyer on behalf of Judge Sullivan. Now you've got lawyers,
Speaker 1: high you got judges hiring lawyers to make a case
Speaker 1: for them that the government isn't making the prosecutorial branch
Speaker 1: and that the defense has already agreed with the government
Speaker 1: the case should be dropped. But now we're watching a
Speaker 1: federal judge step in and push for the case to
Speaker 1: continue on his own. Oh no, they're saying, it's it's
Speaker 1: just to get more advice on the situation. This is
Speaker 1: the abuse of the process, and the process is very
Speaker 1: much the punishment to continue the case against General Flynn
Speaker 1: at this stage, the Libs are relying on bad faith,
Speaker 1: transparently stupid positions, and they're extending a federal prosecution of
Speaker 1: a man for months after the government has dropped the case,
Speaker 1: all in order to amuse a judge who has said
Speaker 1: bizarre things in this case in the past, including accusing
Speaker 1: Flynn of treason. And we are supposed to believe that
Speaker 1: this is not a distortion of Article three the Constitution. No,
Speaker 1: my friends, the process is the punishment. That is the
Speaker 1: whole point here. The argument. While a lot of complexity
Speaker 1: talked about, and there's a lot of sighting of precedent,
Speaker 1: the argument boils to some of the judges on the
Speaker 1: appeals quarters saying, well, we should at least allow Sullivan.
Speaker 1: There are three judges hearing this. We should at least
Speaker 1: allow Sullivan the opportunity to do the obviously right thing
Speaker 1: here in a month, sir, Let's not get too hasty.
Speaker 1: The clear counter argument to that is, why hasn't he
Speaker 1: already done the obvious thing, which is the emotion to
Speaker 1: dismiss should be granted. This case should be done, gaveled over.
Speaker 1: Flint should walk out a freeman with no conviction on
Speaker 1: his record. Nothing. Why delay? Oh, because they want to
Speaker 1: have the opportunity to poke at the Trump administration. Because
Speaker 1: the judge here realizes that he'll be vilified by the left,
Speaker 1: by the Dems, the Libs. Oh my gosh, good heavens,
Speaker 1: if you were to have Joe Biden win the next election,
Speaker 1: this judge might find himself on the wrong side of
Speaker 1: an IRS audit who knows the ways that the Libs
Speaker 1: will try to exact revenge upon him for not finishing
Speaker 1: off the case against General Flynn. Let's all remember here,
Speaker 1: this is a case that is a clear ambush, was
Speaker 1: a clear ambush by the f Beyond the DOJ. We
Speaker 1: have all the evidence we need to come to that
Speaker 1: conclusion right now. That is what the Department of Justice
Speaker 1: has said, but this is a recurring theme with the left.
Speaker 1: If the Supreme Court rules in their favor, it is
Speaker 1: a sacrosanct institution that is beyond reproach, and anyone who
Speaker 1: does not see it that way is a terrible person.
Speaker 1: If the Supreme Court rules against the Libs, maybe we
Speaker 1: should stack the court. It's it's politicized. Oh, I don't
Speaker 1: trust those conservative judges. It's all a sham. And this
Speaker 1: is the way they are with elections, the whare they
Speaker 1: are with courts, the way they are with the Department
Speaker 1: of Justice and its prosecution decisions. The decision of prosecute
Speaker 1: can't be changed. Why Oh, because you had a special
Speaker 1: counsel that determined that General Flynn lied to the FBI
Speaker 1: in the ambush interview entirely built upon false premises, trying
Speaker 1: to take out an incoming national security advisor because the
Speaker 1: Obama administration and the foreign policy fools around him didn't
Speaker 1: like it, didn't like Flynn, didn't like the Trump won.
Speaker 1: And now we're seeing the justice system itself at the
Speaker 1: level of federal judges making a mockery of the whole system.
Speaker 1: This is appalling. You're going to continue to drag out
Speaker 1: a case. It's already been years. You're going to now
Speaker 1: continue to drag this out even more as a federal judge,
Speaker 1: after the government has completely within its power and without
Speaker 1: any evidence of bad faith, without any evidence of corruption
Speaker 1: that they can point to. The Executive Branch has said,
Speaker 1: we're not prosecuting this case anymore. This never should have
Speaker 1: been brought. And in fact, what they are claiming is
Speaker 1: that there was injustice initially in bringing the case, and
Speaker 1: somehow this judge is going to continue with it. I
Speaker 1: don't think that there is going to be a resolution
Speaker 1: from the Appeals Court. I think they're going to push
Speaker 1: it back down to Judge Sullivan and say, let's see
Speaker 1: what he does. And Judge Sullivan is going to turn
Speaker 1: the courtroom into a circus of anti Trump arguments and
Speaker 1: innuendo and the administration was so wrong here. It's going
Speaker 1: to allow for all this that they could call witnesses,
Speaker 1: they can do all kinds of things. They're going to
Speaker 1: be prosecuting a case without a prosecution. This is kafka esk.
Speaker 1: I mean, this is insane. I understand, this is just
Speaker 1: you look at this, say this is one case. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but it's It was a strike at the heart of
Speaker 1: the incoming Trump administration from the cry baby deep state
Speaker 1: libs who couldn't accept that they lost the election, couldn't
Speaker 1: accept that Helloa, Hillary wasn't the president of the United States,
Speaker 1: the fact that the I defoised this intense and rapaciously
Speaker 1: greedy and dishonest mediocrity upon all of us. Who's really
Speaker 1: her best political move was marrying and then staying married
Speaker 1: to Bill Clinton. We're supposed to believe this woman now
Speaker 1: should rule the world. It's absurd. But they were so
Speaker 1: upset about that that even people who were career so
Speaker 1: called government servants couldn't accept the results of a free
Speaker 1: and fair election, tens of millions of Americans coming out
Speaker 1: and casting their vote, couldn't accept it. Had to find
Speaker 1: a way to try to even the score. Remember, they
Speaker 1: were trying to take down the entire Trump administration. They
Speaker 1: managed to ambush Flynn, but Flynn was just a part
Speaker 1: of the overall effort to prove that Donald Trump was
Speaker 1: a traitor and to get him removed from office. The
Speaker 1: whole point of the Special Counsel was to set up
Speaker 1: either a criminal charge against the President, which they didn't have,
Speaker 1: so they said, Oh, we can't criminally charge the president,
Speaker 1: so we won't make a determination. Isn't that convenient? All
Speaker 1: these slimy loyally tricks that have been pulled here. Never
Speaker 1: it's never about justice, It's never about what's right, what's fair,
Speaker 1: what's decent. The special counsel across the board a sham.
Speaker 1: This proceeding against General Flynn appalling, and it's not over yet.
Speaker 1: You know why. They want to try to humiliate the
Speaker 1: Trump administration going into the reelection campaign. They want to
Speaker 1: try to find a way to claim to give The
Speaker 1: people that are in the media as as legal experts
Speaker 1: are really some of the dumbest people I've ever seen
Speaker 1: in my life. They're actually dumber than the national security
Speaker 1: experts that I know, who are libs in the media
Speaker 1: who know nothing, who are astonishingly ignorant and stupid. But
Speaker 1: they say, you know, they say things that will make
Speaker 1: Cooper and Tapper and Cuomo, etc. Nod. Yeah, Yeah, that's right,
Speaker 1: that's good, good analysis. There. People are abject morons. But
Speaker 1: the legal expert or even worse, because all they do
Speaker 1: is view themselves as lawyers for the Democratic Party. They're
Speaker 1: not giving you legal analysis. They're giving you the DNC
Speaker 1: talking points of what the law would say if the
Speaker 1: Democrats could make it up as they're going along. And
Speaker 1: so that's why so many people are confused here. This
Speaker 1: really isn't complicated. There is no good faith reason for
Speaker 1: a judge to continue this nonsense destruction campaign against General Flynn.
Speaker 1: There's no reason except to extend it out. Have there
Speaker 1: be greater degrees of humiliation here. He's appointed at an
Speaker 1: amicus for what reason? Where is where is the party
Speaker 1: here that is claiming that there needs to be a
Speaker 1: prosecution of Flynn. Oh, it's the Washington Post editorial page,
Speaker 1: It's the New York Times, across the board. I mean,
Speaker 1: I was gonna say editorial page. It's it's everyone over
Speaker 1: at CNN. It's the DC elites. That's who wants a
Speaker 1: prosecution of Flynn. But that doesn't matter in a judicial
Speaker 1: proceeding because there's no actual prosecution to speak of. And
Speaker 1: the executive branch has said no, this should not have happened.
Speaker 1: We're done here, jud Sullivan saying no, I don't think
Speaker 1: you're done. I want to you know, I'm demanding that
Speaker 1: we continue this. And it really is an a Lynskyite
Speaker 1: abuse of the process. You know, it's something it's something
Speaker 1: similar to you know, in sports sometimes they figured out
Speaker 1: that people can claim unlimited injury timeouts, and then they
Speaker 1: get abused by people in bad faith. They'll say, oh,
Speaker 1: you know, the momentum has gone against them. And this
Speaker 1: happens in tennis, and so people say, oh, you know,
Speaker 1: my foot really hurts, we need to take a break,
Speaker 1: and then the momentum turns against them again. Yeah, you know,
Speaker 1: my foot really hurts again. I mean, this is what
Speaker 1: is happening in a federal court involving the prosecution of
Speaker 1: a three star general and the former short term national
Speaker 1: security advisor to the current administration. They're just abusing the rules.
Speaker 1: Everyone can see it. There's no real reason to continue
Speaker 1: this because there's no prosecution, because they're never show have
Speaker 1: been a prosecution, and listening to the arguments being made,
Speaker 1: it's absurd. It's all just hold on, let's not gonna
Speaker 1: let's just give this more time. There's no harm here,
Speaker 1: give it more time, extend this up. No harm. Flynn
Speaker 1: has been bankrupted, Flynn has been ruined, and this is
Speaker 1: all about trying to keep open a door for the
Speaker 1: attacks against the Trump administration through claiming that Attorney General
Speaker 1: Bill Barr, who has already been the Attorney general in
Speaker 1: a previous Republican administration, the guy's a world class lawyer,
Speaker 1: and they're all going to pretend that he's been compromised
Speaker 1: or something. I mean, it's just these people are shrill maniacs,
Speaker 1: you know. I really I didn't think I'd get to
Speaker 1: the point where there's not even a good argument to
Speaker 1: be made on the other side, and therefore I just
Speaker 1: disrespect people openly who try to make the argument there
Speaker 1: is no good faith case to be made here. But
Speaker 1: it goes actually to our current moment with the movement
Speaker 1: such as it is right now out there with COVID
Speaker 1: nineteen lockdowns. It's not about good faith anymore. We are
Speaker 1: entering a period of absolute bare knuckle fighting overpower, and
Speaker 1: people on the left the Democratic Party, will do anything
Speaker 1: to achieve the power that they seek, and they will
Speaker 1: pay any price to get there. It does not matter
Speaker 1: to them, doesn't matter who they ruin, what they do
Speaker 1: to the country. Everything is open to them now. They
Speaker 1: have no dignity or principles to protect. They'll do whatever
Speaker 1: they have to do. Look at Nancy Pelosi, yeah, she'll
Speaker 1: she'll kneel with a Kente scarf around her neck, you know,
Speaker 1: every day until the election. If it means the Democrats win.
Speaker 1: There's no there's no amount of humiliation, there's no amount
Speaker 1: of dishonesty, there's no amount of self debasement. The Democrats
Speaker 1: won't engage in and destruction of institutions and sacred norms
Speaker 1: and things that they always claim Trump is guilty of.
Speaker 1: They themselves are guilty of. They themselves have done things
Speaker 1: that are clearly just the expression of political outrage, have
Speaker 1: nothing to do, nothing whatsoever to do with the sanctity
Speaker 1: of our democracy or protecting our system or anything else.
Speaker 1: So the flint case is very much an emblem, it's
Speaker 1: a symbol, it's a centerpiece of all of these other
Speaker 1: dynamics that are playing out all around us. They don't
Speaker 1: care about equal justice, they don't care about justice at all.
Speaker 1: They don't like something. They want something to be their way.
Speaker 1: That is the only thought process the Democratic Party currently
Speaker 1: goes through. This bad that good, I want do it
Speaker 1: my way. You'll notice that the ideology of the mob
Speaker 1: is very similar to and sounds very much like the
Speaker 1: ideology of a spoiled child. That's really what the Democratic
Speaker 1: Party has turned into. A spoiled child that throws tantrums,
Speaker 1: that does not want any of the other children to
Speaker 1: have the same cookie, that does not want any other
Speaker 1: children to play by the same rules. They want what
Speaker 1: they want, and if they don't get it, they're going
Speaker 1: to scream and kick and hit people around them. That
Speaker 1: is the Democratic Party of today. You're in the Freedom Hearty.
Speaker 1: This is the Buck Sex and Show podcast. This legislation,
Speaker 1: the Heroes Act, says let's open the economy. We all
Speaker 1: agree we want to do that. Let's open the economy.
Speaker 1: Let's have our children be able to go back to
Speaker 1: school safely, safely. We don't have a vaccine and we
Speaker 1: don't have a therapy. God willing we will soon, and
Speaker 1: we hope and pray that science will be an answer
Speaker 1: to our prayers in that regard. However, we do have
Speaker 1: a path. Testing. Testing, testing, there's one word we should
Speaker 1: all be saying over and over again. Testing testing. We're
Speaker 1: not even close to what we should be doing on
Speaker 1: a daily basis. The scientist academics all over the country
Speaker 1: are preaching this, but the White House has not responded.
Speaker 1: Too late, Nancy, too late, for this. I'm sorry, We're
Speaker 1: not going to play this game now where we pretend
Speaker 1: that we can't all see exactly what's going on here.
Speaker 1: All of a sudden, the protests have have unleashed their
Speaker 1: full fury on the streets of the United States over
Speaker 1: one hundred and twenty cities. Massive protests, rioting, looting, violence,
Speaker 1: police stations, destroyed buildings, burnt out. That's happened. And then
Speaker 1: we turn around and say, well, hold on a minute, now,
Speaker 1: we're going to start getting lectures about how we need
Speaker 1: more testing after all the abandonment of social distancing that
Speaker 1: had occurred in the last two weeks, thousands upon thousands
Speaker 1: of people in very close quarters for hours and hours
Speaker 1: on end, and you know, yeah, most of them were
Speaker 1: on the younger side. I'm sure a lot of that
Speaker 1: family members they've gone back to. I'm sure there are
Speaker 1: plenty of people they're sharing homes with. And I'm not
Speaker 1: going to make jokes about them all living in parents' basements,
Speaker 1: but there probably are some who live in their parents'
Speaker 1: basements and are putting those who are at the higher
Speaker 1: age or in the higher age brackets at risk from this.
Speaker 1: Assuming that outdoor spread is a risk, which I don't
Speaker 1: think it is, but they are now saying it is
Speaker 1: because they got the excuse for two weeks. They were
Speaker 1: able to get a dispensation from the media and Vouchie
Speaker 1: who's like yo in the mitigation way to go, oh,
Speaker 1: we lost it for two weeks, but we got it
Speaker 1: now back for two more weeks. Now, all of a sudden,
Speaker 1: we're gonna start hearing about testing testing. We don't use
Speaker 1: the testing capacity that currently exists. And guess what, We're
Speaker 1: not going to be able to tell people that they
Speaker 1: all have to get tested every two weeks so that
Speaker 1: Nancy Pelosi doesn't freak out about it. That's just not
Speaker 1: going to happen. What have I been telling you about
Speaker 1: test and trace and all this other stuff. But the
Speaker 1: panic that is starting right now is a politicized panic
Speaker 1: about the second wave. I'm telling you, I've been telling
Speaker 1: us all along. We're gonna be all right from a
Speaker 1: disease standpoint, but the political response to this could be catastrophic.
Speaker 1: Thanks for listening to the Busts and Show podcasts. Remember
Speaker 1: to subscribe on Apple podcasts, the iHeartRadio app, or wherever
Speaker 1: you get your podcasts. Get ready for the second wave.
Speaker 1: That's what they're telling you. Georgia has been open for
Speaker 1: weeks and weeks Texas, these places that have been opened,
Speaker 1: and they are going to do everything they can. You've
Speaker 1: already seen this reflected in the stock market. There was
Speaker 1: a big stock market rally that then got turned completely
Speaker 1: around because the media started with this anak of oh
Speaker 1: my gosh, there's there's a second wave that is here.
Speaker 1: And they've been saying every two weeks for the last
Speaker 1: six to eight weeks, just wait, two more weeks, there's
Speaker 1: gonna be a wave, Just wait two moorks. Let me
Speaker 1: explain to you why we should not believe them now.
Speaker 1: This is it's a different thing to say the disease
Speaker 1: is still out there. Yes, of course it is that
Speaker 1: there are still people who are getting it. There are
Speaker 1: still people who are getting hospitalized, There are still people
Speaker 1: who are dying from it, but the numbers are dramatically
Speaker 1: lower than they were a few months ago. We have
Speaker 1: gotten a bit better, according to doctors that I've been
Speaker 1: speaking to about treating it. That doesn't mean we have
Speaker 1: a real therapeutic, but we have gotten better at treating
Speaker 1: it as a general matter. And also because we're in
Speaker 1: the summer months now, upper respiratory diseases are less than
Speaker 1: they are during the winter months. We know this from
Speaker 1: just life year and year out. Colds and flu, When
Speaker 1: does that happen? You know, you go to your drug store,
Speaker 1: when are you picking up cold and flu medicine? Not
Speaker 1: a lot of you are doing that in July. I'm
Speaker 1: not saying it's impossible, but it's rare. It's rare. But
Speaker 1: now we see, Oh, okay, we're supposed to do what exactly?
Speaker 1: Continue drag through Oh that's right, we're back to this. Now,
Speaker 1: let's drag through more lockdowns. Let's let's have this continue
Speaker 1: on where we can't live our lives. Our economy goes
Speaker 1: comes to a screeching halt again, and it's all just constrained.
Speaker 1: They want us to be on economic life support, but
Speaker 1: the federal government funneling cash to us because they understand
Speaker 1: that that is advantageous for politics. There's nothing they won't do,
Speaker 1: my friends, the only thing that holds the left back
Speaker 1: is what will help us, you know, and what are
Speaker 1: they able to do. That's it, there's no more. There's
Speaker 1: no morality, there's no shared sense of decency that is
Speaker 1: holding them back. In a political sense, from doing anything,
Speaker 1: or from saying anything, from making any claim. They've completely
Speaker 1: lost their minds. You know, the old liberals have been defeated.
Speaker 1: That's what you're seeing right now. I think it's very
Speaker 1: important to understand that the old liberalism is now on
Speaker 1: the way out. This new brand of wokeness, of radicalism.
Speaker 1: The you know, the Jacobins of the Democratic Party are
Speaker 1: the ones that are calling the shots. They really can't
Speaker 1: control them anymore. They can't tell the young. You know
Speaker 1: that the twenty five year old who thinks that someone
Speaker 1: who says anything they don't like can just be accused
Speaker 1: of basically committing violence, and therefore there's a moral obligation
Speaker 1: to punish and shut down and destroy that person. Words
Speaker 1: I don't like equals violence. This is a This is
Speaker 1: a terrible thing for this country. I mean, this is
Speaker 1: a recipe for the eradication of freedom entirely. I mean,
Speaker 1: to live in a subservient state to the will of
Speaker 1: the left and the big s state. That's what we
Speaker 1: are heading for, unless we recognize this for what it is.
Speaker 1: They told us fifteen days to stop the spread or
Speaker 1: to flatten the curve. That was what they told us.
Speaker 1: And now they're telling us, well, it's really going to
Speaker 1: be more like maybe six months, maybe twelve months, maybe
Speaker 1: eighteen months, that's what we're looking at. No, now, we
Speaker 1: didn't sign up for that. I didn't agree to that,
Speaker 1: my friends, as conservatives, we are going to have to
Speaker 1: engage in mass non compliance. Oh, only the left gets
Speaker 1: to do civil disobedience. I don't think so. If they
Speaker 1: try to shut us down again in ways that are
Speaker 1: within our conscience and that are safe, we should say no.
Speaker 1: We should we should say that we're not going to
Speaker 1: do that. We should non comply. Those of you who
Speaker 1: are in positions to defy that authority should defy that authority.
Speaker 1: It's now become a little active defiance for me every
Speaker 1: day just to walk outside and to go out in
Speaker 1: the building. I live in an apartment building. I don't
Speaker 1: own it. I don't own I don't own anything. And
Speaker 1: I don't wear a mask. I go outside without a mask,
Speaker 1: I come back in without a mask. I don't do it.
Speaker 1: That's a little active defiance right now, because you're supposed
Speaker 1: to based on an executive order from the government, from
Speaker 1: the governor of New York State Cuomo, who's a moron,
Speaker 1: and A and a bad guy. That's not a legislative act,
Speaker 1: that's not within his purview to determine. This wouldn't withstand
Speaker 1: constitutional scrutiny. And you know, in an emergency, there are
Speaker 1: certain things that can fly, there are certain things that
Speaker 1: you're just gonna let go. But this is not an emergency.
Speaker 1: This is now something that is manageable. This is something
Speaker 1: that we can deal with. And they're acting like they
Speaker 1: can just turn on that emergency button again as soon
Speaker 1: as they want, as soon as we all know this.
Speaker 1: It is politically useful because they want to have a
Speaker 1: means of criticizing the upcoming Trump rallies. Because here's what
Speaker 1: you're going to see at the Trump rallies. Tens of
Speaker 1: thousands of people gathered together who support this president, who
Speaker 1: support his agenda, who believe in law and order, who
Speaker 1: want the economy to be restored, and who I think
Speaker 1: have started to get a sense of how endangered freedom
Speaker 1: really is in this country. I'm pleased to see that
Speaker 1: White House Economic Advisor Larry Couldlowe, who I think is
Speaker 1: just at that stage in life where he's just going
Speaker 1: to speak the truth and he knows that they're going
Speaker 1: to come after him with everything they've got, and he
Speaker 1: knows that the psycholibs can handle anything. They're all really
Speaker 1: so emotionally damaged. I mean, that's an observation that we
Speaker 1: should all have about the woke left and people who
Speaker 1: believe in this, people who really think that they're changing
Speaker 1: the world by putting up a black square on their
Speaker 1: Instagram or do the video, or they're just like, I
Speaker 1: take responsibility. For long about it? I take responsibility. No,
Speaker 1: you don't. No responsibility comes with consequence. There's no consequence.
Speaker 1: In fact, there's only upside. That's not taking responsibility. That's
Speaker 1: patting yourself on the back of what a great person
Speaker 1: you are. Virtue signaling isn't brave. That's why we make
Speaker 1: fun of it all the time. But Kudlow is at
Speaker 1: the point now where he doesn't care how emotionally deranged
Speaker 1: and unstable the left is. He's just going to speak
Speaker 1: the truth. So he said earlier today that a second
Speaker 1: wave of the coronavirus was not descending upon the country,
Speaker 1: and of course Politico is saying even as cases are
Speaker 1: spiking in more than a dozen states, Kudlow told Fox
Speaker 1: and Friends, quote, there's no emergency. There is no second wave.
Speaker 1: I don't know where that got started on Wall Street.
Speaker 1: He said. He's not a health expert, but he's spoken
Speaker 1: with the top public health officials at some length. They're
Speaker 1: saying there's no second spike. Let me repeat, there's no
Speaker 1: second spike. There are so many ways that the media,
Speaker 1: and I'll walk you through them. I spoke to my
Speaker 1: new I don't know what we'd call them, comrade, I
Speaker 1: hate that term, buddy, colleague. I don't know because we
Speaker 1: don't really know each other. Well, never met him. But
Speaker 1: Alex Barrenson, who you know, has this book, The Truth
Speaker 1: The Truths about COVID. I mean, I forget what the
Speaker 1: exact title is, but if type in Alex Barrenson COVID,
Speaker 1: it'll come up for you. I think it's untold Truths
Speaker 1: about COVID. And we discussed this yesterday and he was saying, look,
Speaker 1: there are so many ways when you look at the
Speaker 1: data that it is actively being misrepresented, and you think,
Speaker 1: who would ever do that? I mean, aren't we all
Speaker 1: in this together. Aren't we all going through this at
Speaker 1: the same time. How could anyone be so reckless as
Speaker 1: to misrepresent COVID data at this point in time? Aren't
Speaker 1: we supposed to be using what we know and the
Speaker 1: numbers as they come in so that we make the
Speaker 1: best policy decisions and keep people safe while also keeping
Speaker 1: the economy going. Fortunately, we're past that moral panic of
Speaker 1: if you think that we need an economy, you just
Speaker 1: don't care about people dying. No, that is not true.
Speaker 1: It's just not true. And finally we are past that.
Speaker 1: Finally we are at a phase, at a stage where
Speaker 1: I think that idiocy is no longer able to be
Speaker 1: a silencing tool against the rest of us. But there
Speaker 1: is a little bit of an uptick in cases in
Speaker 1: some major metropolitan areas, and they're going to deal with it,
Speaker 1: and we know where these things are happening, But there
Speaker 1: are a lot of ways that data can also be misrepresented.
Speaker 1: I want you to be on guard for this. Cases themselves,
Speaker 1: which just means a positive COVID test, do not mean
Speaker 1: the disease is getting worse, because there is a direct
Speaker 1: there's a direct link between how much testing is going
Speaker 1: on and how many cases there are. Right, if you
Speaker 1: have a lot of cases in an area, but you
Speaker 1: had one hundred percent of the area tested, guess what,
Speaker 1: or even fifty percent of the area tests that are
Speaker 1: twenty whatever it may be. But a surge in testing
Speaker 1: also means there'll be an aggregate, a higher number of
Speaker 1: actual cases. Another way that the statistics are being abused here,
Speaker 1: or the numbers as they come in are being abused.
Speaker 1: If you go into a hospital now for any reason,
Speaker 1: you're likely to have in most places a COVID nineteen test.
Speaker 1: I've been tested just from going to the White House,
Speaker 1: you know. But people get tested for COVID nineteen frequently,
Speaker 1: and therefore you have people who are showing up who
Speaker 1: are asymptomatic, who are getting tested in the hospital, and
Speaker 1: they may in fact be counted as a COVID case. Right,
Speaker 1: It depends on how the hospital. There's an incentive in
Speaker 1: terms of federal dollars. So if someone comes in the hospital,
Speaker 1: you test them, they're not there because of COVID, but
Speaker 1: they have COVID. Now are they going to be counted
Speaker 1: as a COVID case? You will, certainly for the positive tests,
Speaker 1: but are they counted as a COVID hospitalization? You dig
Speaker 1: into this, you start to see it's more complicated, and
Speaker 1: then just the surge in hospitalizations generally, this is another
Speaker 1: way that the numbers can be abused. More people can
Speaker 1: go to hospitals now and use hospitals because and are
Speaker 1: doing so because they're allowed to for non COVID related things.
Speaker 1: So just a spike in hospitalization usage alone is meaningless.
Speaker 1: In fact, we want that because we want people who
Speaker 1: are getting elective surgeries done. We want people who are
Speaker 1: able to go do things, to get chemotherapy treatment and
Speaker 1: so on and so forth. So don't allow them to
Speaker 1: get away of this. Oh there's all these states and
Speaker 1: then results, Oh, pandemonium, just in time for the Trump rallies,
Speaker 1: just in time for that. It's it's stunning that they're
Speaker 1: so dishonest. I told you weeks ago they're going to
Speaker 1: come back with this. You know it. I said it.
Speaker 1: I was as clear as day on this show. They're
Speaker 1: going to resurrect this. We're gonna get ready for it.
Speaker 1: The fight over the second Wave is coming, and it's
Speaker 1: going to be nasty and vicious because this is in
Speaker 1: some ways even more important for their political prospects. If
Speaker 1: we're allowed to come out of this, if we're allowed
Speaker 1: to go forward and rebuild the economy and get some
Speaker 1: momentum going to the election. It's clearly of enormous benefit,
Speaker 1: not just a trumpet to the Republican Party. And they
Speaker 1: know that, so they want to suppress the economy. They
Speaker 1: want this to continue to be in the back of
Speaker 1: people's minds going forward, because whatever they have to do,
Speaker 1: they will do in order to seize power through the
Speaker 1: ballot box, and that includes perhaps skewing those ballot boxes
Speaker 1: in their favor as well, something we'll talk more about later.
Speaker 1: But here's the You know, people are talking about eighteen
Speaker 1: states reporting an increase in COVID nineteen case counts, spikes
Speaker 1: in Arizona, Florida, Texas. Yeah, but if those places, if
Speaker 1: they've been going down for six weeks and they go
Speaker 1: up two percent for a week, Oh my gosh, are
Speaker 1: we all supposed to hide under our beds again. No
Speaker 1: one said that it's supposed to be at zero. Hospitals
Speaker 1: are not at risk of being overwhelmed. We should go
Speaker 1: back to business as usual with precautions in place for
Speaker 1: those at high risk. That is it. There is no
Speaker 1: other way. The people who aren't telling you there's another way.
Speaker 1: We're gonna test in trace. We've gotta have an army.
Speaker 1: Fauci says off traces. They got to follow you around.
Speaker 1: You know, ay, what do you have for breakfast? Did
Speaker 1: you have wheaties? Did you have special k you know? Oh? Also,
Speaker 1: did you get to COVID test this morning? You had
Speaker 1: one yesterday? You need another one and another one. That's
Speaker 1: where we are trying to create a turnkey totalitarian system
Speaker 1: for all of us under the guise of public health.
Speaker 1: Get for it, you're in the freedom Huh. This is
Speaker 1: the Buck Sexton Show podcast. What I'm trying to figure
Speaker 1: out is how we keep people from drownding at the moment.
Speaker 1: At this moment is for example, we you know, if
Speaker 1: you're gonna build, we're gonna go back to work. How
Speaker 1: do we go like, for example, there are no standards
Speaker 1: how we send kids back to school or daycare, none
Speaker 1: at all. What are we gonna do? We gotta lay
Speaker 1: that out now, because how many For example, I think
Speaker 1: every single solitary person out there who has a child
Speaker 1: should have childcare. Yeah, I'm gonna I'm gonna take this
Speaker 1: issue that's uh, you know, really complicated and just making
Speaker 1: about a Democrat agenda item childcare. Yeah, there we go.
Speaker 1: I thought we're talking about the disease. Now we're talking
Speaker 1: about everybody needs to have government provided childcare. That that's
Speaker 1: where we are. Okay, oh, my friends, Biden is look,
Speaker 1: we're going to get to a point, unfortunately, where it
Speaker 1: doesn't matter how dumb. What Biden says is it doesn't
Speaker 1: matter how out of it, how inept, and how completely
Speaker 1: incapable of being president. He looks. Democrats don't care. You're
Speaker 1: not going to change anyone who's voting for Biden. The
Speaker 1: Democratic Party doesn't care about it and isn't even going
Speaker 1: to engage on this. They're just going to pretend it's
Speaker 1: the Emperor has no clothes, and they're all saying, look
Speaker 1: at that emperor is fantastic suit. It's amazing, it's so special.
Speaker 1: That's going to be the Democrats with Biden. That's not
Speaker 1: going to change. But he says things that are just untrue.
Speaker 1: And they always talk about how Trump is lying and everything.
Speaker 1: First of all, Biden as a history of being a
Speaker 1: big liar on matters that are important, lying about his
Speaker 1: role in the civil rights movement, lying about meeting Nelson Mandela,
Speaker 1: or being arrested on the way to meet Nelson Mandela,
Speaker 1: should say all these different things. But here he's just
Speaker 1: saying that there's no plan for reopening schools. That's not true.
Speaker 1: There's been a plan in place for weeks and the
Speaker 1: plan is too restrictive. But this is where I think
Speaker 1: there might finally be some pushback. People need to go
Speaker 1: and go to their conservatives. We are not mobilized, and
Speaker 1: that's why I think these Trump rallies are so important.
Speaker 1: You need to go to your PTA meetings if your
Speaker 1: kids are in public school, or you need to go
Speaker 1: meet with the whatever these school authorities are. If your
Speaker 1: Catholic school. I don't know whereever it is. I don't
Speaker 1: have kids, so I don't know how this stuff works.
Speaker 1: But you need to make sure that your voice is
Speaker 1: heard that school needs to be opened this fall. This
Speaker 1: is insane. School should be opened this summer. They should
Speaker 1: have opened up summer schools. We can shut down the
Speaker 1: whole economy, but we can't put an extra month or
Speaker 1: two on the calendar for kids to be in school. Why,
Speaker 1: says who. It's amazing and here we are. We're back
Speaker 1: in this fight again to have our lives back. I
Speaker 1: mean to reopen the country. We're still in lockdown in
Speaker 1: New York. We're in phase one of four in New
Speaker 1: York City. Because the lunatics in charge won't give up
Speaker 1: control and don't care how much misery they are inducing
Speaker 1: with their stupidity. And they're all Democrats. Thanks for listening
Speaker 1: to The Bus Sesson Show podcasts. Remember to subscribe on
Speaker 1: Apple podcasts, the iHeart Radio app, or wherever you get
Speaker 1: your podcasts. You really can't make it up. I thought
Speaker 1: a joke when I tell you it's poison mystery. Go
Speaker 1: it's unbelievable. Great again, but try not to die while
Speaker 1: you're doing it. Okay, it's hashtag make America great again,
Speaker 1: but you might die and just other people. We're not responsible. Okay,
Speaker 1: Hey four more years? All right? Oh yeah, I'm sure
Speaker 1: that morning Joe the the most dishonest, the most dishonest.
Speaker 1: He's a liberal. I mean, he can say he's a conservative,
Speaker 1: but he switched teams. He just won't admit it. The
Speaker 1: most dishonest person on MSNBC right now. I'm sure that
Speaker 1: he had a lot of comments mockery for the protesters
Speaker 1: who were gathering by the thousands and thousands and thousands,
Speaker 1: and the lack of social distancing that was involved in that. Right.
Speaker 1: Oh no, if you want to gather together in the streets.
Speaker 1: Who streets are streets occupied? Oh No, that's a different
Speaker 1: that's a different moment. They were using that chant, isn't it.
Speaker 1: It's almost like this is just the left cyclic in
Speaker 1: a cyclical fashion, unleashing the insanity that is stored up
Speaker 1: from the mob. Oh that is kind of what happens,
Speaker 1: isn't it. People are angry and this becomes the expression
Speaker 1: of their anger, and all the celebrities and all the
Speaker 1: institutions all gathered together and talk about how oppressed they are. Meanwhile,
Speaker 1: they control so much of society. The left has had
Speaker 1: so much dominance of the institutions of culture, institutions that
Speaker 1: create a vast amount of wealth and have a tremendous influence.
Speaker 1: You know, you go on YouTube, for example, YouTube is
Speaker 1: constantly biased against conservatives. I mean, I'm dealing with this
Speaker 1: right now. As we've launched a YouTube channel, they'll just
Speaker 1: pull stuff down, and you have to go, why is
Speaker 1: my stuff being pulled down? I'm doing political commentary. If
Speaker 1: it's safe for radio and the FCC has no problem,
Speaker 1: why is it being taken down? Oh? Because it violates
Speaker 1: our terms of service. And then you got to get
Speaker 1: into the what's in the terms of service, and turns
Speaker 1: out that there's something you know about, Oh, we don't
Speaker 1: want people to feel excluded or unsafe or you know
Speaker 1: what does that even mean? Whatever the left says it
Speaker 1: does they control the platforms. There are conservative billionaires out there,
Speaker 1: There are people of tremendous influence who see the world
Speaker 1: in real terms, realistically is how they view them, is
Speaker 1: how they view the world around them, and they could
Speaker 1: do something really worthwhile about this. But no, let's just
Speaker 1: let's give more. Let's give more money to bloated DC
Speaker 1: think tanks to write policy papers that five people read
Speaker 1: by accident on the Internet. Let's do more of that.
Speaker 1: Let's not actually create a place for real free speech
Speaker 1: where it actually where it actually happens, and we don't
Speaker 1: have to worry about well, when they're going to pull
Speaker 1: the plug on that. You know, I'm seeing all of these,
Speaker 1: all these people that are going after now this sponsors
Speaker 1: on Tucker Carlson Show. That's just because he's been effective.
Speaker 1: He has been a rallying point for sanity on Fox
Speaker 1: News night after night in the midst of all this
Speaker 1: absurdity and chaos and lies, all this deception and anger
Speaker 1: that is being foisted being jammed down the throats of
Speaker 1: the American people by the left. Oh I know some
Speaker 1: of them like it, but a lot of us don't.
Speaker 1: And Tucker has been willing to speak truth about this
Speaker 1: while they are always trying to tell us that we
Speaker 1: have to just sit and get lectured and deal with
Speaker 1: all the nonsense. Oh yeah, sure there's riots and destruction
Speaker 1: of property in the ruining whole neighborhoods, but I mean
Speaker 1: it's mostly peaceful. The people who say this are disgusting frauds,
Speaker 1: and they're all over the The media is really one
Speaker 1: entity now. There's just there's conservative media, which is the
Speaker 1: opposition party to the media. That's what That's the world
Speaker 1: that we actually live in. We don't. There's not a
Speaker 1: left right media. There is the media, and then there
Speaker 1: is this little faction known as conservative media. And if
Speaker 1: you're in that faction, you know, you push back against
Speaker 1: the dominant paradigm of left wing insanity. That's what ends
Speaker 1: up happening. But they're going after Tucker Carlson right now
Speaker 1: and saying that, and they're trying to pull sponsors from him.
Speaker 1: This is not Tucker's ratings or through the roof the
Speaker 1: market shows that people want to watch Tucker Carlson's content,
Speaker 1: but the left tries to use influence and institutions to
Speaker 1: shut off the financing for that speech. This is this
Speaker 1: is how they play the game. This is why Media
Speaker 1: Matters and Sleeping Giants and these other organizations that all
Speaker 1: they try to do is deep platform and shut down
Speaker 1: conservative speech through slander and lies and just the most
Speaker 1: disgusting gutter tactics imaginable. The people that work for those
Speaker 1: organizations and the mainstream media entities that use their stuff
Speaker 1: are just beyond contempt. They're beneath contempt, but they're they're
Speaker 1: going after Tucker's show. I'll tell you this, if Tuck
Speaker 1: Show ever got pulled from Fox, and I think I
Speaker 1: think Fox understands this, the outcry against it would be
Speaker 1: it would be deafening, and it would not be it
Speaker 1: would not be a smart business move, so I hope
Speaker 1: you know. And also it would be such a signal
Speaker 1: of the rest of us that, Okay, so no one's
Speaker 1: safe to have a real discussion anymore about this. We're
Speaker 1: told about how oppressed the left is and different factions
Speaker 1: and different racial identity groups within the left. We're told
Speaker 1: how oppressed they are, and yet we can't even have
Speaker 1: a conversation about it without fear of getting destroyed. They
Speaker 1: can say whatever they want, the left can say if
Speaker 1: you're if you're on the in the broad spectrum of
Speaker 1: the left. Look at Al Sharpton, an anti Semite, but
Speaker 1: he's a black liberal, so he's allowed to get away
Speaker 1: with that. Right. Al Sharpton, who was a part of
Speaker 1: a hoax that cost a man his life, doesn't matter.
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter. The Twuanna Brawley hoax all swept under
Speaker 1: the rug. No one cares anymore. Al Sharp then is
Speaker 1: giving the eulogy at the George Floyd funeral. Al Sharpton
Speaker 1: has his own show at MSNBC. He's a millionaire, he
Speaker 1: flies private, and so on and so forth. These are
Speaker 1: the rules as they are explained to us by reality.
Speaker 1: They don't they won't admit that these are the rules,
Speaker 1: but they will tell us that going forward, the rules,
Speaker 1: such as they are, are are going to be in
Speaker 1: constant flux. That we do know. They're going to be
Speaker 1: changing things on us. They're going to be switching things up.
Speaker 1: So with that, I also want to tell you this
Speaker 1: is an example of what happens when you try, when
Speaker 1: you try to appease the current moment, when you when
Speaker 1: you do everything you can. And just for the record,
Speaker 1: I had to if it sounded like I was falling
Speaker 1: out of my chair there for a second, I got
Speaker 1: a special visit from Tallula, the French bulldog in my
Speaker 1: in my studio. She managed to to come over into
Speaker 1: the studio space and then she was running around, so
Speaker 1: I had to pick her up for a second. So
Speaker 1: apologies for the pitter patter of little little doggy pause
Speaker 1: on the floor there, but I had to pick her
Speaker 1: up for a second. So Lady Antebellum, which they have
Speaker 1: one song that I am familiar with, they have changed
Speaker 1: their name to Lady A because just the the you know,
Speaker 1: the evocative nature, or the the fact that Antebellum, you know,
Speaker 1: it is referred to the pre Civil War South, just
Speaker 1: that that reference is now unwoke, it cannot exist. And
Speaker 1: so they they have decided to change their name to
Speaker 1: Lady A. But they've run into a problem. There is
Speaker 1: a black blues singer, according to Rolling Stone, who for
Speaker 1: the last twenty years has performed under the name Lady A.
Speaker 1: And this is just classic Lady A has now said
Speaker 1: to the new Lady A or said about them. Quote.
Speaker 1: For them not to even reach out is pure privilege,
Speaker 1: that's right. Does she really think that they did this knowing.
Speaker 1: I'm sure they just didn't know about this. You know
Speaker 1: that this was a mistake. They don't want them to
Speaker 1: be brand conflation or confusion. But another you know, you
Speaker 1: change your name so that the the woke crowd won't
Speaker 1: be mad at you anymore, and you fall into yet
Speaker 1: another another problem with the woke crowd. That that is
Speaker 1: the classic moment that we are in right now. They're
Speaker 1: you know, they're they're going after Columbus statues all over
Speaker 1: the I think the third Columbus statue has now been toppled.
Speaker 1: And look, I think I think that we're just we
Speaker 1: need to understand that they're coming for the founding fathers.
Speaker 1: I mean, there's going to be a movement. It's just
Speaker 1: a matter of time. To rename I don't just mean monuments.
Speaker 1: I mean to rename cities. I mean to rename memorials.
Speaker 1: I mean to rename it all. Think about how much
Speaker 1: that will that will involve, and you you'd have to
Speaker 1: ask if they don't do that, why, given what we're
Speaker 1: seeing about about Columbus. They're establishing rules now that people
Speaker 1: that are in our culture that are a part of
Speaker 1: the you know, of American history and the American story,
Speaker 1: that are judged by twenty twenty standards to have been
Speaker 1: a moral and wrong and engage in bad behaviors of
Speaker 1: all kinds, that they have to be purged from public
Speaker 1: view and can no longer be celebrated for one aspect
Speaker 1: of what they did. The totality of the person is
Speaker 1: up for public debate. In that kind of environment, you'd
Speaker 1: have to you'd have to ask, Okay, who are we
Speaker 1: allowed to revere? Who are we allowed to hold up
Speaker 1: and cherish? So oh, I don't even think I got
Speaker 1: into what the problem is that Joe Scarborough and Mika
Speaker 1: because they set me off so much. And I'll have
Speaker 1: to come back and address that at a moment here.
Speaker 1: What are they mocking saying? Oh, the rallies are going
Speaker 1: to cause death. I will address that in just a moment.
Speaker 1: You're in the Freedom Hunt. This is the Buck Sexton
Speaker 1: Show podcast. Okay, So, why is everyone all of a
Speaker 1: sudden talking about the death cult of Trump voters, at
Speaker 1: least in the liberal media. That's what they're suggesting, that's
Speaker 1: what they're talking about. Well, it's because the Trump campaign
Speaker 1: has put out a disclaimer, a waiver of sorts that
Speaker 1: if you're going to get tickets for the Oklahoma rally
Speaker 1: next week, and look, if I if I could easily
Speaker 1: get there, I would go. I can promise you that,
Speaker 1: no question about it. And if it was possible for me,
Speaker 1: I would I would go check it out. But I
Speaker 1: also do think it's important that everyone understand one, we
Speaker 1: live in a highly litigious society. People sue each other
Speaker 1: here all the time. If they think there's a payday
Speaker 1: that they can get to, if they think there's some
Speaker 1: way that they can, you know, profit off of pretending
Speaker 1: that they were wronged in some way, even if it's
Speaker 1: completely up to their own decision making and it was
Speaker 1: their own fault, they will do so. But also, I
Speaker 1: think it's important that the Trump campaign show that yes,
Speaker 1: there are risks, that yes, if you come out, it
Speaker 1: is possible you will be exposed to COVID nineteen. And
Speaker 1: people are able to make the choice as adults as
Speaker 1: to whether or not they're going to go to the rally. Now,
Speaker 1: to me, it does seem like it would make sense
Speaker 1: to hold the rallies whenever possible outside. I would recommend
Speaker 1: that now, I know, with weather issues that can be
Speaker 1: a bit more challenging. But and also perhaps from a
Speaker 1: Secret Service protection perspective that maybe a nightmare. And I
Speaker 1: don't I never worked on the secret Service side, so
Speaker 1: I'm just assuming that that's probably an issue. But people
Speaker 1: should know that if they are going to these rallies,
Speaker 1: they're making a decision as adults, They're making an affirmative
Speaker 1: decision that they are willing to put themselves at some
Speaker 1: degree of risk from COVID nineteen. And this is going
Speaker 1: to be the world that we're living in going forward.
Speaker 1: When you go into a very crowded place, there might
Speaker 1: be people that are there, a person or people who
Speaker 1: are there who have COVID nineteen, and you should take
Speaker 1: some precautions. And if you are as you're a highly
Speaker 1: compromised immune system, or if you are over the age
Speaker 1: of seventy, that is a you know, there's a risk
Speaker 1: component that you should certainly take into account as you're
Speaker 1: doing this. I would also note that this is the
Speaker 1: kind of stuff that I couldn't even say. You can't
Speaker 1: even say this on YouTube I'm finding out you can't
Speaker 1: put up these even handed, honest assessments and analysis of
Speaker 1: public policy issues because the lockdown consensus is so strong. Now.
Speaker 1: It's very much like what we see with climate change,
Speaker 1: where if you question the orthodoxy, you are screamed at,
Speaker 1: you are yelled at, you are told that you are
Speaker 1: a terrible person, and then if you ask for facts
Speaker 1: to back this all up, you'll be told that just
Speaker 1: that alone, your request for the information is evidence of
Speaker 1: your lack of willingness to believe the evidence. So show
Speaker 1: me the evidence. Is well, you don't even believe evidence
Speaker 1: if you're asking that question. And this is the circular
Speaker 1: is the circular reasoning, This is the absurd way that
Speaker 1: we are all told to just obey. You know, up
Speaker 1: in Boston, I think they just declared a public health
Speaker 1: emergency of racism is a public health emergency? Well, this
Speaker 1: should set everybody a little bit on edge. Yes racism
Speaker 1: is bad, and yes racism exists. Right, we always have
Speaker 1: to go through this this uh, you know, initial preamble,
Speaker 1: or else you become one of the cancel right right
Speaker 1: as if. And I find it honestly degrading to have
Speaker 1: to always sit around when we're talking about these issues
Speaker 1: and say, obviously racism is bad, obviously, but if you
Speaker 1: don't do that, then the cancel culture comes after you.
Speaker 1: So these are these are ways that they're affecting our
Speaker 1: national conversation. These are the ways they're making you in
Speaker 1: your own home talking to people, or you know, in
Speaker 1: the office, or in any public forum on social media.
Speaker 1: If you're engaging, you immediately are on the defensive of well,
Speaker 1: hold on. Because I don't agree with the leftist orthodoxy
Speaker 1: in its totality as represented by the Black Lives Matter
Speaker 1: movement and all of its affiliations, I'm automatically suspect, and
Speaker 1: therefore I have to say, oh, I'm so sorry about racism.
Speaker 1: It is terrible, But now can we talk about whether
Speaker 1: defunding the police is a serious thing to do? Oh,
Speaker 1: I'm so sorry about the history of racial discrimination in
Speaker 1: this country. It is terrible and it is, but now
Speaker 1: can I talk about what going on today in this
Speaker 1: particular context. It's this is a power dynamic that we
Speaker 1: have to do this, and it is you know, it
Speaker 1: would be a bit like saying, can I discuss, you know,
Speaker 1: an issue of and we will later in the show
Speaker 1: discussed JK. Rowling, the author of the Harry Potter series,
Speaker 1: and how she's dumbling down. I give her credit. She's
Speaker 1: a she's a progressive lib and yet she's saying, look,
Speaker 1: women are real, and to say that being a woman
Speaker 1: is just a declaration of one's intent to be a
Speaker 1: woman or something is hurtful and wrong and untrue. And
Speaker 1: they're coming after her with everything. But before I get
Speaker 1: into that, if I were speaking about a woman's issue
Speaker 1: or an issue that an issue of policy that affects
Speaker 1: women predominantly, I should not have to always say I
Speaker 1: am not a misogynist. I do not believe in hurting
Speaker 1: women for no reason. You know I shouldn't. But that's
Speaker 1: where we are on issues of race, and that is
Speaker 1: just a fact. That is where we are as a society.
Speaker 1: If you want to discuss issues of race and you
Speaker 1: are not a liberal and you are white, you better
Speaker 1: start every sentence with racism is bad, even though you're
Speaker 1: acting on the assumption, and we should all be acting
Speaker 1: on the assumption that we all agree that racism is bad.
Speaker 1: Of course, it is the same way that we would
Speaker 1: all act under the assumption. As we're having a discussion
Speaker 1: about women in the workplace, let's say, or about you know,
Speaker 1: maternity leave policies. Let's do that. If I'm talking about
Speaker 1: maternity leave policy, I should not have to do some
Speaker 1: throat clearing or well verse. Let me just say that
Speaker 1: women are equal to men, and I reject misogyny, and
Speaker 1: I reject you know, domestic violence. Of course I do.
Speaker 1: Why Why should I buddy you? Always? You gotta always
Speaker 1: put these markers in plays? That just goes to show
Speaker 1: you how skewed it is not a playing field that
Speaker 1: is leveled for discussion and open ideas. It is skewed
Speaker 1: against the right in favor of a leftist orthodoxy that's
Speaker 1: constantly changing, mind you, But the whole point is to
Speaker 1: keep us all on defense all the time. Got to
Speaker 1: be on defense, and then you just get tired of
Speaker 1: it and you do what they tell you you are
Speaker 1: supposed to do. Eventually you just submit. And that's that's
Speaker 1: really the point of it. So that you know, the
Speaker 1: Trump rallies I think are going to be very helpful.
Speaker 1: I think that it's going to be good for people
Speaker 1: to see Trump doing his thing. I hesitate to even
Speaker 1: bring this up, but we all know that there's also
Speaker 1: a lot of politicians who are older, and COVID puts
Speaker 1: them at higher risk for their age range. So let's
Speaker 1: remember that any politician who's willing, any politician, including the
Speaker 1: President United States, who's willing to go out there, is
Speaker 1: also taking a risk, and that shouldn't be discounted. We
Speaker 1: should all understand that we are adults making decisions, and
Speaker 1: none of us are going to live forever. And there
Speaker 1: is this thing called COVID nineteen that's out there, that
Speaker 1: is that is dangerous to people over fifty, particularly dangerous
Speaker 1: to people over seventy, and we should operate with that
Speaker 1: framework of understanding. And that's what I think the campaign
Speaker 1: is doing. So the fact that they're all's like, oh,
Speaker 1: it's also funny. Were they making jokes about all the
Speaker 1: people that might die from the rallies? There were older
Speaker 1: people in the rallies, as we know from the guy
Speaker 1: in Buffalo in his seventies who got pushed to the ground.
Speaker 1: There were older people in the rallies too. Were they
Speaker 1: making jokes about how screaming I hate Raithism and you
Speaker 1: know all this other stuff? Is that worth exposing yourself
Speaker 1: or perhaps your elderly relatives to COVID nineteen. No jokes
Speaker 1: about that, because the media is full of stupid frauds
Speaker 1: like Joe Scarborough. Thanks for listening to The Bus Sesson

Speaker 1: iHeart Radio app or wherever you get your podcasts. Nos. Not,
Speaker 1: he doesn't help anything. As a matter of fact, he
Speaker 1: has the nerve to call anybody a domestic terrorist. He's
Speaker 1: a domestic terrorist. He's the one who's been impeached for
Speaker 1: obstructing justice in this country. He's the one who has
Speaker 1: friends who are in jail. You know, Roger Stones in jail,
Speaker 1: Michael Flinn's in jail, Roger Cohen, Michael Cohen is in jail.
Speaker 1: He's worried about people in Seattle. By the way, if
Speaker 1: he wants to do something about Seattle, somebody better show
Speaker 1: him where it is on the map. I doubt that
Speaker 1: he even knows where it is. Get back in your bunker.
Speaker 1: Get back in the bunker. He's a domestic terrorist. Get
Speaker 1: back in your bunker. Where where is that? I'd look?
Speaker 1: I mean, if I had ever read a book, I
Speaker 1: would I would throw it at him. But I'm very
Speaker 1: upset because he's a terrorist. Now, Look as much fun
Speaker 1: as it is to do an impression of Joy Behar,
Speaker 1: which is kind of like a combination of Iago from
Speaker 1: Aladdin and Doctor Fauci. You know that. As much fun
Speaker 1: as it is, it is also I think sometimes important
Speaker 1: because yes, she's a moron for sure, but she's a
Speaker 1: multimillionaire TV personality who reflects. I mean, the reason she
Speaker 1: gets paid so well to do what she does this
Speaker 1: is because there's a bunch of libs in the corporate
Speaker 1: media that are, like, yo, Joy Behart really spot on today.
Speaker 1: I mean, the worst the worst people you'll come across
Speaker 1: in life might in fact be TV news executives. But
Speaker 1: they think that Joy Behar has really got a lot,
Speaker 1: a lot to add, a lot to say, and she
Speaker 1: is representative of a pretty widespread point of view, and
Speaker 1: the point of view is that Trump is basically Hitler,
Speaker 1: which is where we still are now. Nothing has really changed.
Speaker 1: They've never thought differently about this president since the very
Speaker 1: beginning of all this when they were saying that Trump
Speaker 1: is a fascist, and if anything, now they are more
Speaker 1: set in that than ever before. The only options for
Speaker 1: the left, the only options for the Democrats, would be
Speaker 1: to admit that Donald Trump was never a fascist and
Speaker 1: that they were insane in all the things that they
Speaker 1: were saying, which they will not do. They're not going
Speaker 1: to do that, or to just double down and say,
Speaker 1: see it's exactly like we told you, he is a fascist,
Speaker 1: and find new reason for that now and just keep
Speaker 1: going through this. See we were right, he's a and
Speaker 1: then with time normal people will go hold on a second,
Speaker 1: he's a fascist because he allowed the states to make
Speaker 1: their own determinations about a public health matter that was
Speaker 1: being weaponized from the very beginning by the Democrats against
Speaker 1: Donald Trump. You're going to say that he's a fascist
Speaker 1: if you were trying to establish the ultimate justification for
Speaker 1: complete state control, which is why COVID nineteen has been
Speaker 1: an irresistible political tool for the Democrats. Climate change is
Speaker 1: pretty good. Racism as a national emergencies also pretty good.
Speaker 1: That allows you to get away with a whole lot
Speaker 1: of state control right away. But a public health emergency
Speaker 1: over a pandemic, I mean, this is this is something
Speaker 1: that the Left that they can't find a better circumstances,
Speaker 1: They can't find a better way to try and seize
Speaker 1: control of everything and make you do exactly what they
Speaker 1: want you to do. So Bihar's representative of a mentality
Speaker 1: that as dumb as it is, and as much as
Speaker 1: she's just like, you know, I hate Trump. He's terrible,
Speaker 1: He's awful. He's like it's like if Stalin and Hitler
Speaker 1: had a baby that was ugly, and I saw a
Speaker 1: photo of it and I was like, that's an ugly
Speaker 1: baby from Stalin and Hitler. As much as all of
Speaker 1: that is dumb, there are millions of people across the
Speaker 1: country and throughout the media that that largely agree with her.
Speaker 1: And since we're talking about media consensus, this is this
Speaker 1: is a montage that is making its way around right now,
Speaker 1: and I wanted to share this one with you too. Well,
Speaker 1: if you think you're not racist, you couldn't be right.
Speaker 1: But in this day and age, that's simply not good enough.
Speaker 1: What I did wrong in twenty sixteen is I overestimated
Speaker 1: white people. The biggest terror threat in this country is
Speaker 1: white men, most of them radicalized right up to the right.
Speaker 1: Those white guys, those middle aged, boring, nerdy looking white guys,
Speaker 1: and white people have been probably woefully late to this conversation.
Speaker 1: But I'm not willing to let white voters off the hook.
Speaker 1: Do you believe that the white folks actually care about
Speaker 1: racial injustice. It doesn't appear that we do. Between the
Speaker 1: status quo of our society is racism, and it's comfortable
Speaker 1: for white people. Well, because with white we have had privilege,
Speaker 1: even the poorest of us. I said here, as a
Speaker 1: privileged white woman, I cannot imagine, but I appreciate you
Speaker 1: educating us. Is there any degree of self self deprecation,
Speaker 1: self abasement, any degree of groveling? Uh? That that is
Speaker 1: too much for whiteness. I just want to know, let's
Speaker 1: get a little philosophical about this. How much apologizing for
Speaker 1: privilege am I supposed to do? Is this something I
Speaker 1: have to do every day all the time. Am I
Speaker 1: allowed to have opinions on race relations in this country?
Speaker 1: And am I allowed to have those opinions without always
Speaker 1: starting out with I apologize? I think the answer is no,
Speaker 1: I have to. You must first start with the apology,
Speaker 1: apologizing for what exactly, for being who I am. It
Speaker 1: is immoral to demand that people apologize, which is a
Speaker 1: request for forgiveness and an admission of guilt for something
Speaker 1: that one has done. You know, I cannot apologize for
Speaker 1: the first crusade okay. And I know that we go
Speaker 1: through all this where people want to go into history
Speaker 1: and be the ones that say, oh, I can't apologize
Speaker 1: the first shit. I wasn't there. I had no part
Speaker 1: in it. It had nothing to do with my reality
Speaker 1: or my existence. But there are people that still want
Speaker 1: us to be apologizing for things that happened one hundred
Speaker 1: years ago, two hundred years ago, five hundred years ago,
Speaker 1: look at look at Christopher columb Us. We're supposed to
Speaker 1: be apologizing for this. And I would just like to
Speaker 1: know if this is now the new standard, where where
Speaker 1: is it too much? Where are we being asked to
Speaker 1: do too much? And does it ever stop? Will we
Speaker 1: still be apologizing for the same things that we're being
Speaker 1: told to apologize for now in fifty years, in a
Speaker 1: hundred years, if we're having a serious philosophical conversation about
Speaker 1: this country and what it should be trying to achieve,
Speaker 1: since it is we're told now it is not acceptable
Speaker 1: that we have law that is blind to race, and
Speaker 1: that as a society we overwhelmingly view each other as
Speaker 1: as equals. I mean, there are racist yes, I know
Speaker 1: I've never denied that, but ninety nine percent of Americans
Speaker 1: are not, in fact racist. I know that the lives
Speaker 1: their heads would all explode, but you know, nine percent
Speaker 1: of Americans just like people and love their fellow Americans
Speaker 1: and are trying to go about their lives. And we're
Speaker 1: all carrying a heavy burden, and we're all doing the
Speaker 1: best we can. But that's not the country that we're
Speaker 1: allowed to live in. We have to live in a
Speaker 1: country where there's a constant apology made by people who
Speaker 1: are white to everyone all the time. And I would
Speaker 1: also want to know why is it just why are
Speaker 1: we just apologizing to the black community in America under
Speaker 1: the LIB rules. Under the left's formulation here, we should
Speaker 1: also always be apologizing to Native Americans. We should be
Speaker 1: apologizing to Asian Americans for the Japanese interment camps, perhaps
Speaker 1: even for the bombing of Hiroshima, Nagasaki. We should be apology.
Speaker 1: You know, why is it that we limit this? What
Speaker 1: are the limiting principles? They don't have answers. But it's
Speaker 1: just too much fun to watch all these white liberals
Speaker 1: constantly just rubbing their hands. I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry.
Speaker 1: I take responsibility, I take respond No, I don't. I
Speaker 1: don't take responsibility. I don't bend the knee, and that's
Speaker 1: not going to change. People who are moral and ethical
Speaker 1: and are people of character understand who they are and
Speaker 1: will not be swayed by the allegations of the mob
Speaker 1: that there is a collective guilt that is infused in
Speaker 1: their in their personhood. No. I reject that. I reject
Speaker 1: that the media is willingness to bash whiteness and to
Speaker 1: demand things of white people constantly is appalling. It's immoral.
Speaker 1: But I know that they're just going to continue to
Speaker 1: do what they do because it's good for ratings and
Speaker 1: it makes white liberals feel superior to the other people
Speaker 1: on the right who do not agree with them about
Speaker 1: how we should be approaching these problems. So it's not
Speaker 1: going to go away. But I would just note that
Speaker 1: they don't have a real argument to make here, because
Speaker 1: the moment you start to ask real questions, they just
Speaker 1: shout and go add hominem and attack you. You're in
Speaker 1: the freedom, hud. This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast.
Speaker 1: All right, everybody, we are pleased to be joined right
Speaker 1: now by Senator Marsha Blackburn of the Great It's that
Speaker 1: of Tennessee Senator, thank you so much for calling in.
Speaker 1: It is so good to be with you. Thank you
Speaker 1: so much. All right, let's talk about where we are
Speaker 1: now getting things up and running across America. First off,
Speaker 1: you know, is Tennessee fully open now? And what are
Speaker 1: you seeing from the federal level as the President says
Speaker 1: that he won't go into a second lockdown, how how
Speaker 1: confident are you that that's going to be the case
Speaker 1: going forward? I have to tell you, Tennesseeans are working
Speaker 1: hard to make certain we don't have another safer at
Speaker 1: home order. They are abiding by all the protocols. They
Speaker 1: are making certain that they are wearing masks, they are distancing,
Speaker 1: they are going back to work and safe ways, and
Speaker 1: employers are doing a terrific job with being certain that
Speaker 1: theories ppe for all of the employees, that people are
Speaker 1: practicing social distancing. And you know, one of the interesting
Speaker 1: things I found many of them employers have brought people
Speaker 1: back in different groups and they are having some employees
Speaker 1: continue to work remotely while they reconfigure office spaces and
Speaker 1: decide exactly how they're going to handle it. And I
Speaker 1: think people are being very thoughtful. I have not met
Speaker 1: anyone who says I want to get COVID or anyone
Speaker 1: that says I want to give COVID to someone else.
Speaker 1: Senator Blackburn, are you confident that all necessary procedures will
Speaker 1: be in place going forward for these rallies to occur
Speaker 1: in the most safe and secure fashion possible. I think
Speaker 1: that for rallies, for sporting events, for concerts, for live venues,
Speaker 1: you're seeing these groups work together to have conversations with
Speaker 1: one another and say how do we do that. Do
Speaker 1: we want to do a temperature check? Do we want
Speaker 1: to do a COVID test that is similar to like
Speaker 1: a breathalyzer or some other way to make a determination
Speaker 1: if someone does or does not have COVID. So Americans
Speaker 1: are innovators, they are problem solvers. They're going to find
Speaker 1: a way to make this happen, to figure out how
Speaker 1: to keep people safe when they come to their events.
Speaker 1: Another component event is that employers want to be sure
Speaker 1: that they have and also some of these venue and
Speaker 1: king park owners want to be certain there's liability that
Speaker 1: if someone gets COVID and they look back where they
Speaker 1: were a week, two weeks back, if they're not held
Speaker 1: liable for someone saying, well, we caught COVID while we
Speaker 1: were in your area, right And Senator, how are we
Speaker 1: doing with PPE? With funding? Treasury Secretary Manuchein said that
Speaker 1: there's still plenty of money to be dispersed. I believe
Speaker 1: this was yesterday. That there's more, essentially that the government's
Speaker 1: going to be able to do to help get the
Speaker 1: economy going and also to put money in the hands
Speaker 1: of people who have been so negatively affected by this.
Speaker 1: Where are we right now on PPE and what's the
Speaker 1: top of your Senate agenda to try to help get
Speaker 1: things up and running again. Well, there is money that
Speaker 1: is still left in the PPP funds, and there is
Speaker 1: money there that that window is open for businesses until
Speaker 1: the end of June and then they're going to have
Speaker 1: until the end of December to spend those funds. Now,
Speaker 1: one thing that is being discussed right now is do
Speaker 1: you make some of these funds that are left over
Speaker 1: available to small businesses that were destroyed during the rioting
Speaker 1: and looting and property destruction that has taken place over
Speaker 1: the last couple of weeks. And a Senator, is there
Speaker 1: anything else that you think should be done in addition
Speaker 1: to the current fin the current financial moves from the
Speaker 1: federal government side, you know something that you would want
Speaker 1: to see that would either help your home state of
Speaker 1: Tennessee or just in general be a real boost to
Speaker 1: the economy. Well, there are three things I think that
Speaker 1: we should do that really don't cost money but would
Speaker 1: encourage businesses to get going. Number one is liability protection.
Speaker 1: And we hear regularly this is necessary, it is needed.
Speaker 1: People want to see some form of federal liability protection.
Speaker 1: That would be a good thing. I tried to address
Speaker 1: that and get that in place with our Face three bill,
Speaker 1: but of course our friends across the aisle did not
Speaker 1: want that, and it came out. So we're working on
Speaker 1: it as we look at what comes next. In addition,
Speaker 1: looking at what we could do with tax credit the
Speaker 1: money that employers are spending for ppe for their employees,
Speaker 1: making certain that there is a credit for that, having
Speaker 1: a payroll tax holiday for both the employer and the employee.
Speaker 1: Looking at rules and regulations that were not necessary during
Speaker 1: COVID and saying let's keep those off the books and
Speaker 1: not put them back on the books. And now those
Speaker 1: are three different categories that would be a savings for
Speaker 1: businesses and also would put more money in the pockets
Speaker 1: of individuals. But let's say with tax credits, you could
Speaker 1: have a kempt James tax holiday between now the end
Speaker 1: of the year, and if your business was adversely impacted
Speaker 1: by COVID or by the rioting, then you would be
Speaker 1: able to invest get investors into that business, and when
Speaker 1: they back their money out, it would come out to
Speaker 1: them in contact free or gains tax free. That's the
Speaker 1: way that you get this economy growing again and get
Speaker 1: innovators working again. And one more, Senator Blackburn, and we're
Speaker 1: speaking the Senator Marsha Blackburn from Tennessee. Senator, do you
Speaker 1: see action on the Republican Senate side that would address
Speaker 1: the issues right now that are being talked about of
Speaker 1: police accountability and making law enforcement more effective keeping everyone safe?
Speaker 1: Is there anything that you want to see happen on
Speaker 1: that on that front? Sure, we had already that could.
Speaker 1: We did twenty first Century Cures in twenty sixteen. We
Speaker 1: put money in for de escalation training. For mental health
Speaker 1: and de escalation training, I think is something that would
Speaker 1: be important. We want to make certain that our law
Speaker 1: enforcement officers have the training and equipment equipment that they
Speaker 1: need to keep community safe and It was disheartening to
Speaker 1: me to hear our officers and my goodness, we need
Speaker 1: to be investing more in our police force and not
Speaker 1: defunding the police. But they would say, you know, we
Speaker 1: didn't have the training necessary for COVID, or we don't
Speaker 1: have the training necessary for first response for some of
Speaker 1: the drug situations. We don't have the equipment for that,
Speaker 1: or we don't have the equipment to handle rioting. These
Speaker 1: are things we need to be certain that they have.
Speaker 1: They are the first responders when you call nine one one.
Speaker 1: They are the ones that come to help you, and
Speaker 1: we want to make certain they're well trained, well requiped,
Speaker 1: well equipped, because we know they are an integral part
Speaker 1: of all of our communities. Senator Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee,
Speaker 1: thank you so much for joining us. All the best,
Speaker 1: Thank you, bye bye. Thanks for listening to the bus
Speaker 1: Ess and Show podcast. Remember to subscribe on Apple Podcasts,
Speaker 1: the iHeart Radio app, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Speaker 1: All right, everybody, it is Friday, who made it through
Speaker 1: another week in this crazy year of twenty twenty, which
Speaker 1: I've got to tell you, twenty twenty, I am not
Speaker 1: happy with you so far. Twenty nineteen, you kicked ass
Speaker 1: and we're amazing. Twenty twenty you are upsetting and you
Speaker 1: need a time out and no soup for you. It's
Speaker 1: been not my favorite year so far. I think even
Speaker 1: Producer Mark would agree. Producer Mark twenty twenty not up
Speaker 1: to par. Well. I mean, like got married last year,
Speaker 1: so I kind of have to like twenty nineteen better.
Speaker 1: There we go. Producer Mark doesn't want to be sleeping
Speaker 1: on the couch this weekend. He's a smart man. Yeah,
Speaker 1: twenty nineteen way better. I got to go to Producer
Speaker 1: Mark's wedding in twenty nineteen, so there we go. Another
Speaker 1: another check Mark in the twenty nineteen is better box.
Speaker 1: But I think we're gonna go I'm with Trump on
Speaker 1: this one. We're gonna go into the fourth quarter very strong.
Speaker 1: That's what I think is going to happen. And with that, man,
Speaker 1: can we tell us a little bit you were able
Speaker 1: to hear we had a lot of voicemails coming in
Speaker 1: this week. Yes, people seem collect the voice smails. I
Speaker 1: was able to get a few that are even worthy
Speaker 1: of being on the air. Let's do it, Producer Marks
Speaker 1: kick us off with our audio role call Hi Book
Speaker 1: it's Roy from Texas. Se time man. Hey, I agree
Speaker 1: with you on not bending the knee. I totally agree
Speaker 1: with that. I'm all shore with you on the mask closeness.
Speaker 1: I stopped playing that game a long time ago. I'm
Speaker 1: not going to be elect reside people hanging their buck
Speaker 1: Love your show, Roy, Thank you so much, my friend.
Speaker 1: I don't don't bend the knee because you know, there's
Speaker 1: there's a couple of ways to look at this. I mean,
Speaker 1: one of them is that you get no benefit from
Speaker 1: bending the knee because they're not going to forgive you right.
Speaker 1: This is a bit like being pulled aside by the
Speaker 1: Soviet secret police and they're telling you to sign a confession.
Speaker 1: You get no benefit from signing the confession. So why
Speaker 1: you know they're gonna send you to They're gonna give
Speaker 1: you that ten year sentence in Siberia anyway, it doesn't matter.
Speaker 1: So why why even worry about, right? I mean, why
Speaker 1: why do what they want you to do? There's no
Speaker 1: benefit to apologize, And once you've bend the knee, they
Speaker 1: just take your head. That's the next move. So you
Speaker 1: might as well go down fighting and keep your dignity
Speaker 1: and keep your strength and look, it's it's going to
Speaker 1: be a continuous thing. I mean, they're not going to
Speaker 1: go away for a while with these demands, and the
Speaker 1: language is changing and bands are changing their names. Band
Speaker 1: Aid I saw as now had a series of band
Speaker 1: Aid lines released that are more color inclusive. Is what
Speaker 1: they're doing now, which you know, I don't care. You
Speaker 1: can make my band aid bright blue for all I care.
Speaker 1: I just I don't think this really well, that probably
Speaker 1: looks like m pro police or something. Right. Oh no, oh,
Speaker 1: remember the hash there was a hashtag for a while
Speaker 1: Blue Lives Matter. You'll note that people aren't using it.
Speaker 1: I think that they're concerned that if they were to
Speaker 1: put that out there, even people in the media, they
Speaker 1: might find themselves getting canceled. They might find that. That's
Speaker 1: that's now saying if All Lives Matter can get you canceled,
Speaker 1: as we know it can, blue Lives Matter can certainly
Speaker 1: get you canceled. So just be aware of that. That
Speaker 1: is a a change in the discourse, and the left
Speaker 1: is ascending right now with all this stuff. There are
Speaker 1: very few people willing to stand up against the mob
Speaker 1: and speak out against us, all right, Bruce and Mark fireway.
Speaker 1: We got another another voicemail roll call. Hey, Buck and Mark.
Speaker 1: It's John from Dover, Delaware, and I just wanted to
Speaker 1: call in and tell you guys, I love the show.
Speaker 1: And I also wanted to mention I've been a long
Speaker 1: time listener and Mark is a great asset that has
Speaker 1: been added to the show since I've been listening. I
Speaker 1: just wanted to mention also to day, you guys were
Speaker 1: talking about Patrick Healing last night in basketball. It just
Speaker 1: brought me back to those sneakers if you guys remember them.
Speaker 1: There were the thirty three Patrick Healing shoes. Everybody had
Speaker 1: a pair. Anyhow, man love to show you guys, you're
Speaker 1: doing a great job. Shield High. Well, thank you so
Speaker 1: much from calling in. Hey, we got a Delaware listener. Hi,
Speaker 1: I'm in Delaware. But that's great though. No, we really
Speaker 1: appreciate a man. And you know, there was something very
Speaker 1: special you gotta remember back in the nineties, which is
Speaker 1: when I did watch and went to a lot of
Speaker 1: Knicks games. I mean there was one there I think
Speaker 1: one or two years were my dad split Bruce and
Speaker 1: Mark is going to fall over in his chair. My
Speaker 1: dad split season tickets with a buddy of his and
Speaker 1: you know, my older brother went to I don't know,
Speaker 1: probably a dozen home games I went to. I'd say
Speaker 1: it's maybe three or four. But when we used to
Speaker 1: go and we were Nicks fans back in the Patrick
Speaker 1: Ewing era, we would go to these games and you
Speaker 1: know and eat the cold in the middle hot dogs
Speaker 1: and stand in the line during the breaks between quarters
Speaker 1: of like a thousand people trying to get the soggiest
Speaker 1: cheese covered French fries you could ever find. Brucer mark,
Speaker 1: what is your stadium food? Like? What is the dream
Speaker 1: team of stadium cuisine? See what I did there for you? See,
Speaker 1: stadium cuisine has gotten so much better over the years,
Speaker 1: Like especially like at the Metsalma Mets Fans City Field,
Speaker 1: they have like gourmet food, like I'll get a steak sandwich.
Speaker 1: I'll get a nice turkey and fresh mozzarella sandwich. And
Speaker 1: they have so many different like they have barbecue. They
Speaker 1: have this specialty fry place. This is a million thinker.
Speaker 1: You get a baseball game, now, right, what's okay? But
Speaker 1: of the classic class can only get if you can
Speaker 1: only get hot dog, pretzel, popcorn, cotton candy. You know
Speaker 1: in the classics at a baseball game, a sausage and
Speaker 1: pepper sandwich because you always smell it throughout the park
Speaker 1: and you want it. That's fair. That's fair. I did
Speaker 1: back in the day when I didn't know that I
Speaker 1: couldn't eat gluten, at least or I wasn't was not
Speaker 1: yet diagnosed as a celiac, I would eat. I love
Speaker 1: a hot dog in those buns. Hot dog is great.
Speaker 1: I mean, you can't go wrong in the hot dog either. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I mean now, I'd probably get the hot dog and
Speaker 1: just eat the dog and not the bun. Not you, Tulula,
Speaker 1: You're my princess um, But yeah, I think I think
Speaker 1: that would be a way to go. So okay. Oh
Speaker 1: and Patrick Ewing, I didn't Did you ever have the
Speaker 1: Patrick Ewing? Do you as talking about the shoes? I
Speaker 1: know about Air Jordans. Certainly they became a cultural phenomenon.
Speaker 1: I think they were out his own shoes too. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they were a little more popular in New York than
Speaker 1: they were elsewhere. You know, they Air Jordan's kind of
Speaker 1: ruled all and still do. Yeah, that makes sense. All right,
Speaker 1: Well we got another one. Let's do another one. Hey, God,
Speaker 1: I forgot I just want to let you know that
Speaker 1: you're not alone out there, Know that there are tons
Speaker 1: of us out there that are supporting you or appreciate
Speaker 1: what you're doing. Here an awesome void that broadcasts across
Speaker 1: the country by myself and the Constitutionalist and I value
Speaker 1: our rights over most anything else besides my family and
Speaker 1: my God. Stoop it up, don't give up. Be a
Speaker 1: voice of reason in this world. Thank you Chris from Spokane, Washington.
Speaker 1: Tremendous eloquence and a very appreciated high five for marking
Speaker 1: me here on the show. So thank you so much
Speaker 1: for that. And we certainly appreciate our Washington our Spokene
Speaker 1: affiliate putting us on the air there so people can
Speaker 1: hear us. And yeah, we're going to continue to do
Speaker 1: what we do, even though these days, I mean, it
Speaker 1: feels lonely in conservative media because even if you're part
Speaker 1: of the very few places and look, I am thankful
Speaker 1: that I am able to that conservative talk radio still
Speaker 1: is influential enough and has it draws enough audience, is
Speaker 1: powerful enough that you're allowed some free thought in some
Speaker 1: free expression. You know, even at Fox, which is a
Speaker 1: media you know, super platform, you get the sense that
Speaker 1: people are are already getting a little a little worried about,
Speaker 1: you know, what they can say, what they can get
Speaker 1: away with. You know, my I had a friend. I
Speaker 1: won't even get into it now, but you all know
Speaker 1: I'm talking about who separated from Fox. And I think
Speaker 1: it was just the mob was demanding. I think the
Speaker 1: mob was demanding in the early days, someone bend the knee,
Speaker 1: and that's they made someone else bend the knee there.
Speaker 1: And I did not appreciate it at all. I did
Speaker 1: not think that that was fair. I did not think
Speaker 1: that it was just. But corporate corporate mentality now is
Speaker 1: just to protect profits and not to be free speech platforms,
Speaker 1: and that that has ramifications all across the media. It
Speaker 1: really does. And it's it's a tough time to be
Speaker 1: in the truth business. It's an easy time to be
Speaker 1: in the whose streets are streets occupy Wall Street business.
Speaker 1: It's easy to be a leftist agitator and to go
Speaker 1: along with this and to try and do the most
Speaker 1: you know, over the top version of the morning that
Speaker 1: some of these news anchors I've been going through over
Speaker 1: George Floyd and you know that you had a fray
Speaker 1: the mayor in Minneapolis, crying profuse. Frey was acting like
Speaker 1: he just lost his mom or dad. That's what he
Speaker 1: was doing. And if he had lost his mom or dad,
Speaker 1: I would totally understand it. And there's nothing about it
Speaker 1: that other than sympathy that I would have. You didn't
Speaker 1: even know this guy, and you're allowed to say that
Speaker 1: something is unjust and something is wrong without going into
Speaker 1: these performative theatrics about it. But this is this is
Speaker 1: where we are now. People recognize that there is advantage
Speaker 1: in this movement at this moment, and they're trying to
Speaker 1: take advantage of it. Producer Mark, what else we got? Hi,
Speaker 1: this is Christie from Austin, Texas. I'm listening to you
Speaker 1: on KLBJ. We would love to have you in Austin.
Speaker 1: We get plenty of imports from parts of the country
Speaker 1: and they are going to vote liberal. We need more
Speaker 1: voices like you here. You're in the top tier of
Speaker 1: talk radio show host i'ming you're right up there, so good,
Speaker 1: so enjoyable. Please come to Austin. Well, thank you so much,
Speaker 1: Christy from KLBJ Austin, and we really appreciate that affiliation
Speaker 1: or be on such a great heritage radio station. In Texas.
Speaker 1: Is that was a real milestone for us on the show,
Speaker 1: and they've stuck with us and we've we've had a
Speaker 1: really strong audience there, so that means a lot. And
Speaker 1: see producer Mark, I think Austin's back in play my
Speaker 1: friend from the mobile Freedom of Imazza. Florida doesn't still
Speaker 1: have a little bit of an edge right now, but
Speaker 1: we now we got people that are telling us Austin
Speaker 1: would be good for us. Yes, there was exactly one
Speaker 1: person who said that, Well, that's one more than we
Speaker 1: had yesterday. You're right. I'll just I'll just say it. Austin,
Speaker 1: my older brother has spent a lot of time there.
Speaker 1: He says he loves it. He says it's got great food,
Speaker 1: great people. It's just lots of cool stuff going on.
Speaker 1: It's a really it's a really high quality of life.
Speaker 1: So now granted our friend, uh, you know, our friend
Speaker 1: John Cardillo or our friend Dampongino, you know, they would
Speaker 1: all be like, Florida's got that too, buddy. And you know,
Speaker 1: so look Florida or Texas. Who knows how it's going
Speaker 1: to be. It's a battle for the agents. But at
Speaker 1: least we got a voice in for Austin, Texas, telling
Speaker 1: us that we would be welcomed down there. Thank you
Speaker 1: so much, Christy really appreciate you calling it. It's a
Speaker 1: very kind and and God bless keep listening to the show.
Speaker 1: Please do we have another one markers at it for
Speaker 1: our voicemails? We have plenty. Yeah, all right, hit it.
Speaker 1: Let's go. Hey, production book. This is Star from California
Speaker 1: and I just need to know how can I discuss
Speaker 1: white privilege with somebody in their twenties who I blew
Speaker 1: up yesterday at trying to get into a discussion about it.
Speaker 1: And I need to be able to not get so
Speaker 1: crazy and just just kind of give them the facts,
Speaker 1: so I would appreciate it. Thanks, love the show, love
Speaker 1: your hair, buck Well, thank you Star. Love that you say.
Speaker 1: Love the hair. Which now at this point it's I'm
Speaker 1: trying to I was able to tame it by getting
Speaker 1: the Snow Princess to cut it for a little while,
Speaker 1: but now it's reached that point where I probably need
Speaker 1: to bring in the professionals. You know, it's getting a
Speaker 1: little out of hand. But I will say on the
Speaker 1: on the point about how to discuss white privilege, Uh,
Speaker 1: you know, it Look, it's there's no easy way, and
Speaker 1: I would say that you start from the premise, start
Speaker 1: from basic moral truths, Start from that. You only have sponsibility,
Speaker 1: and you only have culpability for that which you had
Speaker 1: the ability to affect, for what you do, for your
Speaker 1: decision making. Your existence is not a you know, we're
Speaker 1: not going to allow for this to turn into a
Speaker 1: new form of original sin being born white. So to
Speaker 1: apologize for something that's out of your control is inherently
Speaker 1: someone forcing upon you a something that is not demanded
Speaker 1: by morality and clear thinking. This is just this is
Speaker 1: a political movement. And I think that white privilege you
Speaker 1: also would have to ask, I mean, there's so many Look,
Speaker 1: there's a very broad based discussion you could have about this,
Speaker 1: But with white privilege, you'd also want to ask why
Speaker 1: in a country where Asian American households have substantially more
Speaker 1: wealth on average than White American households, do how powerful
Speaker 1: really is white privilege? Is there Asian American privilege? If not,
Speaker 1: why not? And you know, the more you look at
Speaker 1: the facts and the data, the harder it is to
Speaker 1: sustain this rhetoric of systemic oppression and to assume that
Speaker 1: there's always an external there's always an external enemy here.
Speaker 1: There's always an external force that is preventing, in this case,
Speaker 1: the African American community from in the aggregate achieving whether
Speaker 1: it's you know, educational parity, look at testing scores over
Speaker 1: over decades. It's there's there's never allowed to be a
Speaker 1: conversation about family and the breakdown of the family, particularly
Speaker 1: in urban centers. And that's not no, it's always there
Speaker 1: is this external force, whiteness, that is working against and
Speaker 1: holding down the aspirations of the African American community. And
Speaker 1: even if that is true in part, it cannot be
Speaker 1: the entire truth. But it is the only part of
Speaker 1: the conversation that we're allowed to have. And that's why
Speaker 1: I think this narrative of white privilege is just damaging
Speaker 1: to everybody because it's never had. It's never had with
Speaker 1: open minds and with honesty as the central premise. It's
Speaker 1: about politics and about control. You're in the freedom. This
Speaker 1: is the Buck Sex and Show podcast. All right, we
Speaker 1: continue on with our this is fun. I like this,
Speaker 1: Bruce s Mark, Come on, I know you got to
Speaker 1: spend a lot of time listening to voice messages now,
Speaker 1: but it's nice that we have the team's voices added
Speaker 1: to the show in this way. Yes, it's very nice.
Speaker 1: If we could hire an intern to get the messages
Speaker 1: from now on though, that'd be great. But would you
Speaker 1: trust an intern to sift through some of the ones
Speaker 1: that are a little too spicy? I really wouldn't trust
Speaker 1: anyone but myself. I think that's with almost any food.
Speaker 1: I think that's a good rule to have. Yeah. I
Speaker 1: feel that way about a lot of things too. But
Speaker 1: now I trust you. So it's like me and you,
Speaker 1: and you know, my parents, my siblings. I'm gonna give
Speaker 1: you a chance to add one more person to that.
Speaker 1: It's no princess. Yep, good man, thank you. Now, I'm
Speaker 1: not leaping on the couch this weekend. All right, give
Speaker 1: me the voicemail. What do you got hey? Book to
Speaker 1: Mole from Messor Detroit. Have a question. Every time local
Speaker 1: and state governments want to try to impose higher taxes,
Speaker 1: the first thing they pull out of their quiver is, well,
Speaker 1: if you don't agree to this, we're going to have
Speaker 1: to cut cut police and fire protection. Now they're using
Speaker 1: that as as now a good thing. They threaten us
Speaker 1: with it as a bad thing in order to get
Speaker 1: us and give them more money. But now they're trying
Speaker 1: to convince us as a good thing. It makes no sense,
Speaker 1: and I'm kind of curious at what you think this
Speaker 1: is going to look like when ballot box time comes
Speaker 1: shield time. Thank you for calling in from Detroit. So
Speaker 1: your question seems to be that usually they threaten us
Speaker 1: with if if you don't do what we want with
Speaker 1: municipal funding. This is the fireman first model. That's how
Speaker 1: people will refer to it. We're going to cut the
Speaker 1: fire departments and your buildings will burn down, and that's
Speaker 1: just the way it's going to be. And usually that's
Speaker 1: a very effective, if very coercive political position. Now they're
Speaker 1: saying we're going to defund police. So you're you're pointing out,
Speaker 1: is this is this contradictory. The answer is yes, which
Speaker 1: is why they're not going to really defund police. What
Speaker 1: they'll do is take some police funds and redistributed to
Speaker 1: community organizers and other either social welfare or just general
Speaker 1: welfare programs throughout the throughout cities. But they're not going
Speaker 1: to defund police because they recognize that that would be catastrophic,
Speaker 1: so they'll keep saying it, but it won't really happen,
Speaker 1: and maybe one or two cities will go crazy enough
Speaker 1: they'll they'll do it. But those one or two cities
Speaker 1: are going to become the canaries in the coal mine
Speaker 1: that die very quickly in the cage, so to speak.
Speaker 1: I mean, they're they're gonna people are gonna see what
Speaker 1: happens in those city these and say we don't want
Speaker 1: to do that. So no, you will not have defunding.
Speaker 1: And ultimately, the most essential city services are still something
Speaker 1: that politically will have to be funded by anybody who
Speaker 1: wants to remain in power, but it might not be
Speaker 1: funded at the same level and won't be as effective,
Speaker 1: So that will and then it'll just be a question
Speaker 1: whether they can, from the narrative perspective, keep people from
Speaker 1: understanding who's really responsible for that. Thanks for listening to

Speaker 1: producer Mark, let's get into the other version of Royal Call. Now,
Speaker 1: let's get into our inbox. Hit that funky music. Hey,
Speaker 1: team Bug, It's time for roll call time four. Roll
Speaker 1: call everybody, there we go. Facebook dot com, slash Buck
Speaker 1: Sexton if you want to use Facebook to send us messages,
Speaker 1: team Buck at iHeartMedia dot com. If you want to
Speaker 1: do email, kick at old school or eight four four
Speaker 1: nine hundred Buck eight four four nine hundred two eight
Speaker 1: two five. There is nothing, Producer Mark, and joy's more
Speaker 1: than staying up late at night to listen to the
Speaker 1: hundreds and hundreds of voicemails that are coming in during
Speaker 1: the week. So right, yes, it's my greatest joy in life. Now, yeah,
Speaker 1: Producer Mark, he doesn't want it. He doesn't want to
Speaker 1: watch a classic hockey match on the Classic Sports Network
Speaker 1: or anyway. No, no, he wants to listen to voicemails,
Speaker 1: trust me, so send it as many as he can.
Speaker 1: He loves at eight four four nine hundred. Buck is
Speaker 1: the number, and let's get to it with now we
Speaker 1: already have the voicemails. Let's do some rich in roll
Speaker 1: call Kelly kicks us off here Buck. My nineteen year
Speaker 1: old granddaughter recently came to live with us in a
Speaker 1: ten college we live about an hour from Seattle. One
Speaker 1: of her friends invited her to attend the Seattle protest
Speaker 1: with her and my granddaughter told her no. She said
Speaker 1: she wasn't comfortable being in the middle of a mob
Speaker 1: of people like that. The friend responded, are you racist?
Speaker 1: I told my granddaughter I thought it was despicable for
Speaker 1: her friend to respond that way. I think it is
Speaker 1: very normal behavior for her age group. I find it
Speaker 1: very disturbing. Kelly, thank you so much for writing in,
Speaker 1: And yes, you're correct, it is unfortunately far too normal
Speaker 1: now the response that you'll get from people if you
Speaker 1: don't want to be an activist on the street, which
Speaker 1: let's just put aside for a moment, whether the cause,
Speaker 1: who even knows what the cause is right now? The
Speaker 1: cause is whatever it is on any given day. The
Speaker 1: left fields like pretending it is. But let's assume for
Speaker 1: a moment that you agree with the cause. It doesn't
Speaker 1: make you a bad person if you don't want to
Speaker 1: walk on the streets in a mob of people who
Speaker 1: are very possibly going to turn violent, who are very
Speaker 1: possibly going to be a threat to the people around them,
Speaker 1: might get hit with you know, pepper spray or tear
Speaker 1: gas or you know, because if they start a riot
Speaker 1: situation with the cops. Doesn't make you a bad person.
Speaker 1: Also doesn't make you a bad person to think that
Speaker 1: you just don't want to go for this march because
Speaker 1: you think it's not going to do anything and it's
Speaker 1: kind of a waste of time. So you could even
Speaker 1: believe all of the anti racism rhetoric that's out there
Speaker 1: right now in terms of what the movement's trying to accomplish,
Speaker 1: right you could you could be on board for all
Speaker 1: of the politics of this, and you would still be
Speaker 1: completely within your rights to say, but I'm not going
Speaker 1: to go march over this. There are other ways that
Speaker 1: people can take actions. So your daughters, I'm sorry your
Speaker 1: granddaughter's friend is way out of line. But unfortunately that's
Speaker 1: very common these days. People don't think for themselves. They
Speaker 1: want that mob appreciation. They want people to just do
Speaker 1: what they say because they're doing what they're told. So
Speaker 1: if you don't do what you're told by the mob
Speaker 1: as well, that inherently makes people insecure who are just
Speaker 1: listening to the dictates of the mob and going along
Speaker 1: with it. You have to remember that too. So, yes, indeed,
Speaker 1: it is despicable the behavior describing I can't say it's surprising.
Speaker 1: And also, Kelly, you probably you might be thinking, well,
Speaker 1: Buck do you have any way I could tell my
Speaker 1: granddaughter how to convince her for No, her friend is
Speaker 1: gone to the looney bin already on the left, and
Speaker 1: there's no way to You can't reason with somebody if
Speaker 1: they really think that it's racist to not march in
Speaker 1: a protest that could be violent and be a danger.
Speaker 1: You're not going to be able to reach them with reason,
Speaker 1: with facts, with logic. It's just not going to happen.
Speaker 1: Joel writes in listen, I know this will probably keep
Speaker 1: from getting this red on air. But Producer Mark is
Speaker 1: a little wrong on this one. Oh no, it's not
Speaker 1: going to keep. Producer Mark's an honest man. He's an
Speaker 1: honest man, occasionally a little grumpy, but very honest. I
Speaker 1: put it there in that principle, it's right nets he
Speaker 1: puts it on air to principle. He says, yes, it's
Speaker 1: called gravy, but nowhere near to the extent Producer Mark
Speaker 1: made it sound like it was. The sauce gravy debate
Speaker 1: is one of them most contentious arguments among not only
Speaker 1: Italian Americans but Italian Italians. There are only a couple
Speaker 1: of areas that call it gravy. New York City, New Jersey,
Speaker 1: and maybe Chicago. Everywhere else calls its sauce, but being
Speaker 1: New York City as well, New York City gets a
Speaker 1: disproportional representation in the grand scheme of things. Once you
Speaker 1: leave a downstate enclave, it ceases to be gravy. I
Speaker 1: grew up in central New York and I'm I'm full
Speaker 1: blooded Italian and Sicilian and grew up but many, many,
Speaker 1: many many Italians and Sicilians. I never once heard sauce
Speaker 1: called gravy until I think I saw the Sopranos shields
Speaker 1: high I seed my time to producer Mark. What say
Speaker 1: you in response to Joel calling you out here for
Speaker 1: calling it gravy? Well, first of all, what accent will
Speaker 1: you just do? I think you used to govern Cuomo
Speaker 1: for that entire message, So I'm just confused. I'm thrown
Speaker 1: off by that. Besides the point, yes, I will, I
Speaker 1: mean gravy is a common term in the Northeast. I
Speaker 1: don't know about the rest of the country, but in
Speaker 1: TV shows, in Italian restaurants you see called gravy, and
Speaker 1: all the Italians I know called gravy. I'm gonna get
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get a final ruling from the judges. Here,
Speaker 1: Snow Princess, do we call it? Is it called gravy?
Speaker 1: Is this a thing? Snow Princess says, roll call person
Speaker 1: is correct on this one. So I'm just I'm just
Speaker 1: putting that out there. Princess and I are having our
Speaker 1: first disagreement. Prusser Marcus said that you're having your first
Speaker 1: disagreement with him about things. So there, there you have it.
Speaker 1: I'm just I'm just gonna say, there you have it.
Speaker 1: Oh you know, snow Princess is actually Italian. This is
Speaker 1: something that has not come up. That's fair. She's all right,
Speaker 1: she's pulling she's pulling the Italian card because she is Italian.
Speaker 1: I'll give the mots of ball opinions. She can give
Speaker 1: the gravy opinion as Mark. He says, he's our Mats
Speaker 1: of Ball expert, and you get to be the gravy
Speaker 1: slash pasta expert. So yep, yeah, she says, stay in
Speaker 1: your lane, Stay in your lane. All right, all right,
Speaker 1: we've we've come we've come to a consensus here and
Speaker 1: and producer Nick is wagon too, but producer Mark, we
Speaker 1: give you way. Producer Nick says, it's only enclaves in
Speaker 1: the northeast. It's called gravy. I will say this, producer Mark,
Speaker 1: you're you're an honorable man for putting Joel's roll call
Speaker 1: in the mix here, thought me. He knew how to
Speaker 1: get on to me. That's right, it's great reverse psychology.
Speaker 1: Producer Mark would never put this on the show, and
Speaker 1: sure enough heard across the country coast to coast, Dave
Speaker 1: next up here, Yo, Buck, I really look forward to
Speaker 1: your show daily. Weren't to touch base a month or
Speaker 1: so ago when you sounded uncharacteristically melancholy about the shutdown
Speaker 1: and ensuing isolation. Now that the Fauci hoax has been revealed,
Speaker 1: I have seen your wonderful cynicism back, and your right
Speaker 1: sense of humor is at it zenith. Your Cuomo impersonation
Speaker 1: sends me into paroxysms of left every time you'd do it.
Speaker 1: Here in the state of communist California, we holly would
Speaker 1: know what there's a pandemic if it were not for
Speaker 1: all the Obedia poodles wearing masks and the myriad social
Speaker 1: distancing signs and the peaceful riots here confirmed there's no
Speaker 1: crisis here. A pelenx is strong, a shields h high.
Speaker 1: All right, Dave, thank you so much. Producer Cuomo stepped
Speaker 1: in here to read I'm sorry, Governor Cuomo. Producer Mark.
Speaker 1: Governor Cuomo stepped in to read that one for you,
Speaker 1: and yeah, look, I was I was in a really
Speaker 1: bad bad scene here. I mean, I was feeling like
Speaker 1: I wasn't gonna get to see my family or my
Speaker 1: close friends for months and months, because you gotta remember,
Speaker 1: we were being told I think of all the things
Speaker 1: that happened here. The Javit Center I can walk to
Speaker 1: from my apartment in probably hand or fifteen minutes was
Speaker 1: set up as a multi thousand person hospital for COVID patients,
Speaker 1: and they didn't have to use it. I saw in
Speaker 1: real time as a hospital ship floated past my window.
Speaker 1: Because we were going to be so overwhelmed with COVID
Speaker 1: patients that at first they wanted them to be non
Speaker 1: COVID patient of the hospital ship, and then they said
Speaker 1: they needed to be COVID patients. We were told that
Speaker 1: this place was going to end up being completely overrun
Speaker 1: and we were going to have far more hospitalizations. I mean,
Speaker 1: at one point they were claiming that we're going to
Speaker 1: have one hundred and twenty thousand hospitalizations at the peak.
Speaker 1: Think about that. At one time it ended up being
Speaker 1: I think fifteen thousand or twenty thousand or so. I
Speaker 1: mean it was a fraction. Maybe it was thirty thousand
Speaker 1: to height, a fraction of what was said to be
Speaker 1: the peak. So yeah, man, things were scarier. This was
Speaker 1: the worst place for COVID by far. A New York
Speaker 1: city has had more COVID debts than all but five countries,
Speaker 1: and New York's not even the biggest state. So yeah,
Speaker 1: we got hit by this very very hard, and it
Speaker 1: was tough. Man. We were like people were thinking the
Speaker 1: city was going to be done forever and that there
Speaker 1: was never going to be an economic comeback. And now
Speaker 1: fortunately the experts were wrong, and the politicization of this
Speaker 1: has become more aaron But yeah, Dave, it was rough.
Speaker 1: But the Buckster is back for sure, and I'm glad
Speaker 1: you see that. And we are rocking here in the
Speaker 1: Freedom Hunt. Mike. Next up here, Mike kbuck There's a
Speaker 1: story floating around the internet about how Trump wants to
Speaker 1: unveil police reform policies that he would sign into law.
Speaker 1: Should Trump do that, would that be a wise political move.
Speaker 1: I guess it depends what happens, but my guess is
Speaker 1: that wouldn't be enough. No matter what it is. Trump
Speaker 1: should not pander to that crowd who will never vote
Speaker 1: for him anyway. Mike, your assessment here, Yes, I've also
Speaker 1: seen I've also seen that same news story. Your assessment
Speaker 1: here is correct about how Trump will never remember Trump
Speaker 1: did this. White House did the First Step Act. They
Speaker 1: already took action without there being this huge, you know,
Speaker 1: upsurge in interest around criminal justice and race relations and
Speaker 1: all the rest of it. They already did the First
Speaker 1: Step Act, which was more on a legislative basis, more
Speaker 1: than was ever achieved during the Obama years. Has the
Speaker 1: President received any real, any real political benefit for this.
Speaker 1: I mean, I think he would have done it anyway
Speaker 1: because he believed it was the right thing to do.
Speaker 1: But there hasn't been any increase in good faith as
Speaker 1: a result of the First Step Act. There hasn't been
Speaker 1: any sense that this was that the president has benefited
Speaker 1: from this politically. That's that's just not the case. So, yeah,
Speaker 1: you're asking me if Senate Republicans push some bill forward
Speaker 1: and that and obviously the Democrats in the House sign
Speaker 1: onto it too. Would Trump be right to sign it?
Speaker 1: I would say sure, but you know, fine, but it's
Speaker 1: not really going to do anything. Maybe it'll make some
Speaker 1: minor changes to police to police procedure that maybe you're good,
Speaker 1: but it's not going to change the problem. I mean,
Speaker 1: it's it's going to be it's it's very similar to well,
Speaker 1: it's not similar to the gun control argument that I
Speaker 1: think that a lot of the gun control rules that
Speaker 1: proposed would not do anything to actually prevent bad people
Speaker 1: from using guns in the commission of crimes. But a
Speaker 1: lot of the gun control argument turns into what are
Speaker 1: relatively minor changes to the Second Amendment at a federal level.
Speaker 1: But we understand that the incrementalism of the left is
Speaker 1: meant to continuously erode Second Amendment rights. And that's why
Speaker 1: there's always this huge pushback even over the more minor issues.
Speaker 1: This is a this will be minor changes from a
Speaker 1: legislative perspective. Democrats will claim victory on it. It will
Speaker 1: energize the Democrat base, and Trump will get no political
Speaker 1: upside from it. The only thing you can say is
Speaker 1: it takes away a talking point of continued criticism against Trump.
Speaker 1: I don't think that that's really I don't think it's
Speaker 1: going to be that valuable, but I do think that
Speaker 1: Trump will sign it. And I think that this White
Speaker 1: House has always had an interest, as evidenced by the
Speaker 1: First Step Act, an interest in trying to take action
Speaker 1: that is just, in their view, going to be for
Speaker 1: a more just, more just law enforcement, and particularly on
Speaker 1: the incarceration side of things, not unduly penalizing and punishing people.
Speaker 1: So yes, I think your analysis on this is correct,
Speaker 1: and I don't think that Trump will get any real benefit,
Speaker 1: but I do think that he will sign changes to
Speaker 1: police procedure from the federal level if they come to
Speaker 1: his desk. I do think he will. You're in the
Speaker 1: Freedom Hunt. This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast, all right.
Speaker 1: Kind of close out the show strong here with the
Speaker 1: best role call ever, and that's what we're always doing,
Speaker 1: the best role call we could ever find. So don't mind. Everybody,
Speaker 1: go to Bucksexton dot com. We post stories there throughout
Speaker 1: the day, and also subscribe to my YouTube channel. We're
Speaker 1: having some trouble with YouTube poland stuff on us, but
Speaker 1: we'll figure it out. We'll find a way around the
Speaker 1: lib sensors that run that platform because we're not doing
Speaker 1: anything wrong. I don't know. They just conservatism is wrong.
Speaker 1: But if liberally is m is right, I don't want
Speaker 1: to be right or I don't know. You know, you

Speaker 1: see Mark, not to be confused with producer Mark. Producer Mark.
Speaker 1: Come on, man, are you seriously thinking about letting Buck
Speaker 1: move to Delray Beach. You have a hard enough time
Speaker 1: getting him behind the microphone on time living in shutdown
Speaker 1: NYC in a seven hundred square foot apartment. Buck will,
Speaker 1: by the way, it's more like six fifty. Buck will
Speaker 1: never show up if he's got access to a beach
Speaker 1: ten months a year. That is, unless, of course, you'll
Speaker 1: post up into the show right from the beach and
Speaker 1: all seriousness. Get out of NYC as soon as you can.
Speaker 1: Mark your producer Mark, your friend Mark is making some
Speaker 1: sense here. I mean, but I feel like once we're
Speaker 1: out of lockdown and we actually have to go back
Speaker 1: to a studio, no matter what, I'm never going to
Speaker 1: get you to studio one time. It doesn't matter where
Speaker 1: we may be true, so at least once we're done
Speaker 1: starting the show late, then we'll still be near a beach.
Speaker 1: I think that's your exactly. That would be by the way,
Speaker 1: we're near a beach. Where I can say is buck
Speaker 1: the quicker that you get done with the show, and
Speaker 1: the quicker you get here, the quicker you can get
Speaker 1: on the beach. Good point. Good point. Yes, Delray Beach
Speaker 1: might be an interesting place to go. Check out Chris Rights.
Speaker 1: Why does it seem like all the people calling for
Speaker 1: defunding the police are the same ones that needs safe
Speaker 1: spaces from words in college shields high Chris, Because there
Speaker 1: is a huge crossover. This is the woke left. That
Speaker 1: is what the woke left believes that words they don't
Speaker 1: like equals violence, that censorship is desirable, is necessary, is
Speaker 1: moral of ideas that that bother them. This comes right
Speaker 1: from college campuses. Many of us have been warning about
Speaker 1: this for a long time. It's gone from the college campuses,
Speaker 1: and now it is in society to a widespread enough degree.
Speaker 1: And the people are old enough, you know they're in there.
Speaker 1: You know, there's this generation of like twenty five to
Speaker 1: thirty five year old woke you know, woke fundamentalists if
Speaker 1: you will, and they can exercise enough authority in institutions
Speaker 1: that are large and powerful that we're now all seeing
Speaker 1: the results of this where if you're not woken off,
Speaker 1: you can lose your job and bad things happen. Angela,
Speaker 1: Hey Buck, I discovered your podcast about six months ago.
Speaker 1: Six months ago, and now every day at work I
Speaker 1: go into my lab, close the door, put my headphones on,
Speaker 1: and consume all of the insightful information reviews you share.
Speaker 1: My question is do you think that the local Democrat
Speaker 1: leaders and all these cities that have been severely looted
Speaker 1: and damaged have pushed a lot more people to vote
Speaker 1: for Republicans after seeing the Dems have no interest in
Speaker 1: protecting them or their businesses. Shields high Well, Angela, it's
Speaker 1: great to be able to keep you companying the lab,
Speaker 1: So thank you so much for being a part of
Speaker 1: team Buck. We are humbled and we are honored by it.
Speaker 1: I do not think that this will come back to
Speaker 1: her Democrats. Joe Biden was well advised enough to not
Speaker 1: say he would defund the police, and they will memory
Speaker 1: hole this whole thing, and they'll pretend that it never
Speaker 1: They'll gas light us in the fall and be like
Speaker 1: what we never said, defund the police, and all they
Speaker 1: have to do is convince one or two percent of
Speaker 1: the population about this. Robert writes, love the show, OSS member,
