Welcome in Thursday edition Clay Travis and 3 00:00:08,680 --> 00:00:11,080 Speaker 1: Buck Sexton Show. I hope all of you are having 4 00:00:11,119 --> 00:00:14,920 Speaker 1: a fantastic start to your day, maybe an early start 5 00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:17,959 Speaker 1: to the weekend. Right off the top here, we want 6 00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:20,400 Speaker 1: to honor all of you out there who are listening, 7 00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:22,959 Speaker 1: who are veterans who have helped to ensure that the 8 00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:25,760 Speaker 1: United States is the greatest country that has ever existed 9 00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:30,480 Speaker 1: in the history of mankind, and that we are able 10 00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:33,120 Speaker 1: to enjoy the freedoms that we have because of the 11 00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:37,320 Speaker 1: sacrifices of you and so many others out there. Many 12 00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:40,120 Speaker 1: of us out there have family members who have served. 13 00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:43,840 Speaker 1: My most recent family member who has served, my uncle 14 00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:49,640 Speaker 1: was in Vietnam, spent substantial time over there. And Buck 15 00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:51,400 Speaker 1: right off the top here, and we're going to get 16 00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:53,960 Speaker 1: into a lot of different stories. The Kyle Rittenhouse trial 17 00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:58,160 Speaker 1: is ongoing, the impact of inflation, and the absolutely bonkers 18 00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:02,360 Speaker 1: argument that spending billions of dollars more on Joe Biden's 19 00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:05,000 Speaker 1: agenda is going to somehow make things better. One of 20 00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:08,240 Speaker 1: the best days that I've ever gotten to experience in 21 00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:11,480 Speaker 1: my life. I got to go to the Beaches of 22 00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:16,000 Speaker 1: Normandy several years ago. My wife set up a all 23 00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:19,440 Speaker 1: day tour and we took the whole family. We had 24 00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:23,360 Speaker 1: a tour guide there in Normandy, ended in the American Cemetery, 25 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:29,360 Speaker 1: and it is, as a military history buff, an incredible 26 00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:34,440 Speaker 1: experience because so much of that Beaches of Normandy, all 27 00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:37,600 Speaker 1: of the areas that we stormed on D Day, much 28 00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:40,200 Speaker 1: of it looks the exact same as it did then. 29 00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:43,319 Speaker 1: There are still German bunkers with the weapons inside of them. 30 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:47,640 Speaker 1: The farmland still exists much as it did seventy years ago. 31 00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:50,960 Speaker 1: And when you stand on some of those bluffs and 32 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:54,680 Speaker 1: look down at the beaches, what those guys accomplished is 33 00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:59,240 Speaker 1: truly almost unfathomable, even more impressive to have seen it 34 00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:02,440 Speaker 1: in person. And I know you are a history buff 35 00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:04,440 Speaker 1: as well. And so as we start off this day, 36 00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 1: this Veteran's Day, it's definitely a moment to ponder, think about, 37 00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:13,160 Speaker 1: contemplate what everyone has given so that we have the 38 00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:15,960 Speaker 1: opportunity and ability to have the freedoms that we have 39 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:20,440 Speaker 1: every single day. Absolutely, Clay, I remember being a CI 40 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:24,720 Speaker 1: analyst deployed overseas in Iraq and Afghanistan and spending a 41 00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:28,640 Speaker 1: lot of time with military, including those who were going 42 00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:31,000 Speaker 1: outside the wire, the risks they were taking day in 43 00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:33,280 Speaker 1: and day out. I was just there in a support 44 00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:35,840 Speaker 1: role for them as a civilian. They would come back, 45 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 1: and not all of them did come back, and they 46 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:42,760 Speaker 1: sometimes would come back with grievous wounds. I was there 47 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 1: when they were calling home to worried loved ones. I 48 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:47,680 Speaker 1: sat next to them in the mess hall. I sat 49 00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:53,239 Speaker 1: next to them in blackhawks and humvees, and was exposed 50 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 1: to what they are having to carry, the burden that 51 00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:59,160 Speaker 1: they deal with day in and day out as actually 52 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 1: those wearing the form, and they are the reason we 53 00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:05,000 Speaker 1: have what we have. And I think we remember that 54 00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:08,000 Speaker 1: now today, but it's something we should remember every day. 55 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,840 Speaker 1: Without them, this is none of this this show we 56 00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:14,160 Speaker 1: do the people that are living in unbelievable I know 57 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 1: we have a lot of challenges we talk about on 58 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:20,639 Speaker 1: this show, and there are problems that America faces, and yes, 59 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:22,720 Speaker 1: we are in a time where tyranny feels like it 60 00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:24,520 Speaker 1: is it is rising. I will be honest with you, 61 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 1: but this is still, to Clay's initial point, the greatest 62 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 1: freest country the world has ever known, and it is 63 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 1: because of it is only possible because of those who 64 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 1: have worn the uniform. So a heartfelt thanks from both 65 00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:40,840 Speaker 1: of us to all of you today, no doubt at all. 66 00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:44,880 Speaker 1: Now we're going to have some veterans on the show 67 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 1: with us in the second hour talking about what they 68 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 1: are doing in particular for Veterans Day, so that you 69 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 1: are aware. But Buck, we spend a lot of yesterday. 70 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 1: The Kyle Rittenhouse trial is still ongoing, and after yesterday's 71 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:02,880 Speaker 1: testimony from Kyle rittenhow the Blue Check Brigade has lost 72 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 1: its mind as they suddenly become aware. Wait a minute, 73 00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 1: all of these lies that we spread about Kyle Rittenhouse, 74 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:15,040 Speaker 1: calling him a murderer, saying that he was the equivalent 75 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:18,200 Speaker 1: of a school shooter, I'm reading direct quotes from MSNBC 76 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:22,599 Speaker 1: and CNN, A seventeen year old vigilante, a domestic terrorist, 77 00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:26,960 Speaker 1: a deeply racist murderer. Now the attacks from people like 78 00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:30,040 Speaker 1: Lebron James. I'm assuming that you saw this, and I 79 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 1: know that a lot of our audience did as well. 80 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:38,080 Speaker 1: Lebron came out and said, what tiss Lebron is almost forty, 81 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:41,480 Speaker 1: he's thirty seven years old. I believe a fully grown 82 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 1: man Lebron James went on Twitter and said, what tears? 83 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 1: I didn't see one? Knock it off? That boy ate 84 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:54,159 Speaker 1: some lemon heads before walking into court with three different 85 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:58,920 Speaker 1: smiley faces emoticons. Now, Lebron has previously tried to Doc's 86 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 1: police officers. There's a very strong argument that Lebron is 87 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:09,120 Speaker 1: done more as an athlete to divide America than maybe 88 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:13,800 Speaker 1: any athlete in the twenty first century. Colin Kaepernick probably 89 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 1: is number one on this list, but Lebron James is 90 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 1: up there to a high degree, and a lot of 91 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:23,599 Speaker 1: what he has spread are blatant falsehoods. And for him 92 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 1: to go after Kyle Rittenhouse and by the way, Lebron 93 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:28,880 Speaker 1: is just a proxy for a lot of other Blue 94 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:32,360 Speaker 1: Check Brigade members, the left wing woke cognisanti. If you 95 00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:34,160 Speaker 1: want to call this a famous elite, I mean and 96 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:38,280 Speaker 1: ultra elite. Really, to go after a seventeen year old 97 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:42,039 Speaker 1: kid who is taking the witness stand and defending his 98 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 1: actions is really low, even for Lebron James, who has 99 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 1: set some low floors before, and he's certainly not the 100 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:51,920 Speaker 1: only one. There was a Congressman Hakim Jeffries who said, 101 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:54,919 Speaker 1: essentially lock him up and throw away the key. Here's 102 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:58,159 Speaker 1: what the trial has actually shown. First of all, there 103 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:01,719 Speaker 1: have been a lot of very ignorant leftists Democrats we 104 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 1: can use these terms interchangeably, folks, because the Democrat Party 105 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:06,920 Speaker 1: is the left. There have been a lot of ignorant 106 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:11,359 Speaker 1: leftists who don't care that what they thought about this, 107 00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:15,560 Speaker 1: about this situation with Kyle Rittenhouse in Kenosha, was untrue, 108 00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:17,719 Speaker 1: meaning the facts. I'm not even talking about the judgment 109 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:20,279 Speaker 1: call of weather self defense, which I think clearly it was, 110 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:23,040 Speaker 1: but put aside that for a moment they were wrong 111 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:25,880 Speaker 1: on the facts. A lot of people think that he 112 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 1: just went and shot people at a BLM rally, like 113 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 1: a peaceful protest or something. This is what you're actually seeing, 114 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:34,839 Speaker 1: based on some of the social media response here. He 115 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:38,919 Speaker 1: actually shot three white guys who were rioters, one of 116 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:43,960 Speaker 1: whom was a convicted child rapist, multiple counts convicted child rapists. 117 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:46,800 Speaker 1: These are people who attacked him. It's clear, the facts 118 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:50,200 Speaker 1: show it. But Clay, what's amazing is has a single 119 00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:53,520 Speaker 1: blue check leftist come out and said, you know what, 120 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 1: I was entirely I was wrong on the facts and 121 00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 1: wrong on this case. This was disagree with Rittenhouse. I 122 00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:03,599 Speaker 1: disagree with him having the Air fifteen to all the 123 00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:06,400 Speaker 1: things that they could say. But I understand that this 124 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:08,320 Speaker 1: is not what I thought it was, and I was 125 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:11,880 Speaker 1: wrong to say what I did, Absolutely not, because it 126 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,440 Speaker 1: is about the narrative, It is about power. It is 127 00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:20,680 Speaker 1: someone who stood up against the BLM machine destroying cities 128 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:24,880 Speaker 1: and that upsets the left. That's really his sin, more 129 00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:27,240 Speaker 1: than anything else, is that he took into his own 130 00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:31,480 Speaker 1: hands the decision to defend himself and a community that 131 00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 1: the elites and the Democrats abandoned. Not only the elites 132 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:41,200 Speaker 1: and the Democrats, so many leaders allowed this to happen 133 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:46,160 Speaker 1: all over the country rather than confront and in the rioting, 134 00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 1: which was designed to try to embarrass, let's be honest, 135 00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:55,880 Speaker 1: President Trump and was in many ways stoked and fomented 136 00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 1: to try to diminish his chances of reelection, which is 137 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:04,840 Speaker 1: still going on right in November of last year, all 138 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 1: the plywood was put up in cities all over America, 139 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:11,680 Speaker 1: not because Joe Biden was going to win, but because 140 00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:16,160 Speaker 1: the expectation was the rioters, the pillaging, the looting, all 141 00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:18,320 Speaker 1: of it was going to happen again if Trump won. 142 00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:21,720 Speaker 1: And so this kid, and again I think it's important 143 00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:26,120 Speaker 1: to emphasize this from a legal perspective. You can disagree 144 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 1: with the risk that he took to be out in 145 00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:34,080 Speaker 1: the streets with a weapon and still and still believe 146 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:37,480 Speaker 1: that he had the right to defend himself. I've said 147 00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:39,480 Speaker 1: many times on the show, and you have two buck. 148 00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:42,080 Speaker 1: But for me, as a father of three young boys, 149 00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:46,360 Speaker 1: I would not allow them at all, certainly when they're miners, 150 00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:49,360 Speaker 1: to be out protesting, to be out marching, to be 151 00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 1: out in the streets at all with what we saw 152 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:55,400 Speaker 1: going on last summer. But this kid was there, and 153 00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:58,840 Speaker 1: he was trying to protect businesses in Kenosha, Wisconsin that 154 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,679 Speaker 1: were being allowed to burn down that we're being allowed 155 00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:05,760 Speaker 1: to be looted, pillaged, and he ended up having to 156 00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 1: defend himself from three men with violent criminal history backgrounds 157 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 1: on their rap sheets. By the way, three white guys, right. 158 00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 1: I mean, I think there's a lot of people out 159 00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:19,360 Speaker 1: there that had no idea. Because they say BLM protest 160 00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:22,240 Speaker 1: and because they label him a white supremacist and a racist, 161 00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:25,640 Speaker 1: there are a lot of shooting minorities, a lot of crazy, 162 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:29,520 Speaker 1: you know, white communists at BLM protests Disoever, if you 163 00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:33,840 Speaker 1: go to a BLM Portland protest, it's white guys who 164 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:36,640 Speaker 1: you know, watch MSNBC who are pretending that care so 165 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:40,760 Speaker 1: much about minority communities by undermining police, which as we know, 166 00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:43,560 Speaker 1: has had horrible results. BLM BLM has made everything worse 167 00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:48,000 Speaker 1: for everybody as a movement. It's embarrassing how many different companies, politicians, 168 00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:51,200 Speaker 1: organizations bent the need of them in twenty twenty and 169 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:54,079 Speaker 1: we're terrified of them. That there should be a real 170 00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 1: introspection that comes from all this because it just made 171 00:09:57,280 --> 00:09:59,760 Speaker 1: everything worse. It burned down cities, it made the murder 172 00:09:59,920 --> 00:10:02,599 Speaker 1: y go up. It has done nothing. People are beneficial, 173 00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:05,440 Speaker 1: people are dead who would otherwise be alive. But I 174 00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:07,760 Speaker 1: think the Lebron James case, he's not the only one 175 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 1: who says incredibly stupid things about specifically called Rittenhouse. Uh 176 00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:14,440 Speaker 1: you know Joe Scarborough and his show. I mean, he's 177 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:16,120 Speaker 1: he's a complete idiot. I mean, there's a lot of 178 00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 1: people that have said dumb things. But what you see 179 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:22,079 Speaker 1: with Lebron is it's interesting. He's got fifty million Twitter followers. 180 00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:23,560 Speaker 1: So I feel like this is why we have to 181 00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 1: you have to dispel usually I would say we ignore 182 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:29,280 Speaker 1: stupid celebrities. An athlete a stupid actor as athletes celebrities, 183 00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:32,360 Speaker 1: but he's got enough influence. Remember the mckea briant case 184 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:35,760 Speaker 1: where the where the young woman was swinging a knife 185 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:40,600 Speaker 1: and another girl another trying to kill another black girl 186 00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:44,400 Speaker 1: and Lebron James when after the police officer said, the 187 00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:47,680 Speaker 1: police officer essentially docks the police officer. And and what 188 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:49,760 Speaker 1: you see is it didn't matter what the facts were. 189 00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:54,080 Speaker 1: There with Rittenhouse, you have video of people, including the 190 00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:58,000 Speaker 1: serial child rapist, trying to assault and beat him while 191 00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:00,920 Speaker 1: while Rittenhouse has his his rifle and his and the 192 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:04,640 Speaker 1: facts don't matter either. It's they don't like the target here, 193 00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 1: they don't like the cops, they don't like Written House. 194 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:10,800 Speaker 1: The facts of these cases, as you see, don't change 195 00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:14,000 Speaker 1: the opinions of many people on the left who weigh 196 00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 1: in on this because they just view it as it's 197 00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 1: like a team sport. Oh, I have to go, I 198 00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:21,439 Speaker 1: go after the cops, I go after Written House. Doesn't 199 00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:24,559 Speaker 1: matter if I'm lying, doesn't matter even what the facts are. 200 00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:28,040 Speaker 1: And that is where so many media this is to 201 00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:32,480 Speaker 1: a certain extent, Nicholas Sandman like the Covington Catholic step 202 00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:35,760 Speaker 1: standing on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial story where 203 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 1: and you know this, Buck, I've done television before where 204 00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:41,200 Speaker 1: you're supposed to talk about an issue, and you start 205 00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:43,800 Speaker 1: talking about an issue and you recognize that somebody else 206 00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:47,320 Speaker 1: on television hasn't done the bare minimum of research, hasn't 207 00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:50,360 Speaker 1: even bothered to read a few articles, hasn't bothered to 208 00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:53,160 Speaker 1: inform themselves about the facts of a case at all. 209 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:56,439 Speaker 1: And that happens a lot, and people go on television 210 00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:58,280 Speaker 1: and they shoot off at the lip. Calling a kid 211 00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:01,400 Speaker 1: a murderer before he's been convicted, first of all, is 212 00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:05,960 Speaker 1: an incredibly prejudicial statement to make because it implies a 213 00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:10,000 Speaker 1: crime was committed. On its face, people died, but doesn't 214 00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:12,480 Speaker 1: mean that he is a murder Certainly, calling him a 215 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:16,199 Speaker 1: white supremacist. Calling him a racist implies that the people 216 00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 1: he shot at the BM protest were targeted based on 217 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:22,960 Speaker 1: their race, and that he was basically hunting, as Lebron 218 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:26,839 Speaker 1: James said, and trying to kill a minority at a 219 00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 1: BLM protest. All of this is about creating an atmosphere 220 00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:35,720 Speaker 1: where the community as a whole is so uncertain and 221 00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:38,520 Speaker 1: terrified of what the results of the case are going 222 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:42,200 Speaker 1: to be, that jurors are intimidated to potentially give a 223 00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:44,880 Speaker 1: guilty verdict not based on the facts of the case, 224 00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:47,560 Speaker 1: but based on what they're afraid might happen to them 225 00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:50,320 Speaker 1: and to their community if they do not find someone guilty. 226 00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:54,160 Speaker 1: We've got to talk about. A BLM founder here in 227 00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:57,760 Speaker 1: New York City had some words for the mayor elect 228 00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:00,640 Speaker 1: of New York about cops and what BLM's going to 229 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:03,240 Speaker 1: do the streets of America's largest city if they don't 230 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:05,960 Speaker 1: get their way. Oh, we will get into that in 231 00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:08,560 Speaker 1: a few moments, so please stay with us.

I want to take to just take a 270 00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:11,080 Speaker 1: moment though here because Clayn I like to mix things 271 00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:14,600 Speaker 1: up and sometimes have moments, have moments of levity. Even 272 00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:17,880 Speaker 1: in the news cycle. You may have seen Kamala Harris's 273 00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:22,400 Speaker 1: recent polling. I think she's a twenty eight approval. That's 274 00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:26,280 Speaker 1: right about as popular as high gas prices. You know, 275 00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:30,640 Speaker 1: she's really very very few people are pro Kamala these days. 276 00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:34,760 Speaker 1: And she was touring a COVID lab in Paris, and 277 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:37,120 Speaker 1: I just want you to hear this is this is 278 00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:39,200 Speaker 1: the woman that they thought maybe would take over for 279 00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:41,920 Speaker 1: Joe Biden if need be, listen to this. With us 280 00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:48,320 Speaker 1: in government, we campaign with Deep Plan, uppercase t uppercase 281 00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:52,360 Speaker 1: Deep Plan, and then the environment is such that we're 282 00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:56,320 Speaker 1: expected to defend Deep Plan, even when the first time 283 00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:58,240 Speaker 1: we roll it out there may be some glitches and 284 00:15:58,280 --> 00:16:02,320 Speaker 1: it's time to reevaluate and then do it again. The plan, 285 00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:06,760 Speaker 1: what is she talking about? I mean, she is just 286 00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:10,760 Speaker 1: her own veep episode at this point. She is so 287 00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:15,960 Speaker 1: incredibly awkward in all public appearances. I mean the moon 288 00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:20,440 Speaker 1: video you can see craters on the moon, like, I mean, 289 00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:24,080 Speaker 1: she's the worst actress ever. The surprise video for her 290 00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:26,880 Speaker 1: birthday party where she walks in and says surprise to 291 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:31,120 Speaker 1: everyone there, defeating the entire surprise birthday the awkward Joe 292 00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:34,560 Speaker 1: Biden walks like flowers into her remember that like video 293 00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:39,600 Speaker 1: that they recorded, And now this, I just they can't 294 00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:42,680 Speaker 1: even allow her near an open mic because she is 295 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:45,280 Speaker 1: so insanely awkward. And I think I'm correcting this buck. 296 00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:48,200 Speaker 1: Other than going on the view, she hasn't done an 297 00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:52,440 Speaker 1: interview since Lester Holt shamed her over the Border interview. Really, 298 00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:54,960 Speaker 1: that was a great moment because she's looking at lester Holt, 299 00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:56,640 Speaker 1: She's like, we've been to the border, and you can 300 00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:58,560 Speaker 1: tell her he's looking back at her like, lady, look, 301 00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:01,200 Speaker 1: you can't lie like that, Like I can only cover 302 00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:03,160 Speaker 1: for you so much. You have not even what she 303 00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 1: was hoping? Is that lester Holt. You know, sometimes when 304 00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:09,000 Speaker 1: somebody's so wrong, for a minute, you think to yourself, 305 00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:11,600 Speaker 1: lay am I the one who's totally wrong? She couldn't 306 00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:13,520 Speaker 1: have just really said that, right? That was the look 307 00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:16,000 Speaker 1: on lester Holt's face for a second, because they have 308 00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:17,919 Speaker 1: to even know. Even if you're a propagandist you have 309 00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:20,639 Speaker 1: to stick to some of the facts sometimes at some point. 310 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:23,080 Speaker 1: But she is. I mean, I've said it. The only 311 00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:25,359 Speaker 1: thing Joe Biden has going for him in office so 312 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:30,080 Speaker 1: far is that Kamala is so wildly unpopular that they 313 00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:32,800 Speaker 1: can't elevate her to replace him. That's the only thing 314 00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:35,200 Speaker 1: I think that's gone well for him at all so 315 00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:40,040 Speaker 1: far in his presidency is that she's so wildly awful 316 00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:42,720 Speaker 1: that he doesn't have to worry about her. Speaking of 317 00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:45,199 Speaker 1: the exact opposite of awful, how about pure talk.

We will talk 342 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:09,480 Speaker 1: with the tunnel, the tower's crew, and also some of 343 00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:12,240 Speaker 1: the veterans that are involved in putting on this event 344 00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:15,919 Speaker 1: at the Lincoln Memorial today. Later in the program in 345 00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:20,000 Speaker 1: the second hour, but buck Uts, we were talking about 346 00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:23,280 Speaker 1: the Kyle Rittenhouse case and the BLM protests that happened 347 00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:27,880 Speaker 1: all during the summer of twenty twenty, and they may 348 00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:30,639 Speaker 1: not be over. We have a new mayor coming into 349 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:35,520 Speaker 1: office in New York City soon. Eric Adams, former police officer, 350 00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:39,959 Speaker 1: seems to be somewhat better than Bill de Blasio, at 351 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:42,919 Speaker 1: least based on what he said early on. But the 352 00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:47,520 Speaker 1: BLM leader of New York is letting it be known 353 00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:52,120 Speaker 1: that he potentially is going to bring back the riots 354 00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:55,359 Speaker 1: to the city of New York. He's making threats. Here 355 00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:59,160 Speaker 1: is I believe it's cut twenty seven. BLMS New York 356 00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:02,440 Speaker 1: leader threatening the new mayor if they think that they're 357 00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:04,479 Speaker 1: going to go back to the old ways of police 358 00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:07,000 Speaker 1: in that we are going to take to the streets again. 359 00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:10,480 Speaker 1: It will be riots, there will be fire, and it 360 00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:14,000 Speaker 1: will be bloodshait. If there is no way that we're 361 00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:18,800 Speaker 1: gonna let some good stocko coming here home on people 362 00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:24,400 Speaker 1: We pray for peace, but Black Opportunities prepares for the worst. 363 00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:28,560 Speaker 1: We have people in city council who can create problems 364 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:32,280 Speaker 1: for him. We have people in the streets who can 365 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:37,440 Speaker 1: create problems for this administration by shutting it down. Buck, 366 00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:40,280 Speaker 1: you're a New York City resident. You lived through a 367 00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:42,679 Speaker 1: lot of the violent protests that took place in the 368 00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:46,600 Speaker 1: summer of twenty twenty. What's your reaction to hearing this 369 00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:50,400 Speaker 1: from the BLM's leader. It's not surprising at all when 370 00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:55,280 Speaker 1: you understand what BLM is really all about. BLM is 371 00:20:55,440 --> 00:21:00,880 Speaker 1: a Marxist anti police movement that seeks power. Ultimately, it's 372 00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:03,600 Speaker 1: based on a lie. The lie being at they're a 373 00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:07,240 Speaker 1: systemic murdering of unarmed black man by law enforcement in 374 00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:11,600 Speaker 1: America without any consequence to those officers. That is just 375 00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:16,920 Speaker 1: flatly crazily untrue. They do this though, they spread this lie, 376 00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:20,040 Speaker 1: and then they constantly change what the movement is supposed 377 00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:22,080 Speaker 1: to be about. I mean, Clay, I'll tell you one 378 00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:24,760 Speaker 1: of my last appearances on CNN, as it was losing 379 00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:28,480 Speaker 1: and losing its mind as a news organization entirely, I 380 00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:33,119 Speaker 1: was debating on Wolf Blitzer. Wolf Blitzer's show during the 381 00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:35,520 Speaker 1: I was still during the Obama administration, the very end 382 00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 1: of the Obama administration BLM with Van Jones at the time, 383 00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:42,520 Speaker 1: and I said, these are the kinds of things because 384 00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:45,240 Speaker 1: I said on ars that this is an anti police movement, 385 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:47,120 Speaker 1: and they say, oh, that's not true, this is an 386 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:50,359 Speaker 1: anti police brutality movement. I said, no, no, I've been 387 00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:53,560 Speaker 1: at the BLM protests covering it as a member of 388 00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:57,240 Speaker 1: the media. They shout that cops are racist murderers. That's 389 00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:59,480 Speaker 1: the chance that they're all making. They shout pigs in 390 00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:03,119 Speaker 1: a blanket fryam like bacon. There is an anti police 391 00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:06,760 Speaker 1: animus that is central to the ethos of the Black 392 00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:10,359 Speaker 1: Lives Matter movement. You hear it from this individual here, 393 00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:12,960 Speaker 1: And let me just add to this Clay when he's 394 00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:16,960 Speaker 1: talking about the Gestapo like tactics. Specifically, we're looking here 395 00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:19,000 Speaker 1: in New York City at about a six hundred person 396 00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:25,200 Speaker 1: playing clothes anti violent crime unit. These are cops who 397 00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:27,920 Speaker 1: are hand picked. They're the best, the best. These guys 398 00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:30,720 Speaker 1: are well known within the m IPD, and their whole 399 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:33,520 Speaker 1: thing is to know the streets and to stop violence 400 00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:37,080 Speaker 1: on the streets. Sometimes that means they have to wrestle 401 00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:39,840 Speaker 1: violent felons to the ground. Sometimes it means they have 402 00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:43,600 Speaker 1: to actually use force as officers. Why is BLM so 403 00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:47,520 Speaker 1: opposed this BLM leader, for example, so apposed to reinstituting 404 00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:51,040 Speaker 1: the playing Clothes Special Unit meant to stop violent crime 405 00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:54,280 Speaker 1: on the streets. How could that be justified? Clay? It 406 00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:57,400 Speaker 1: isn't remotely justified. And this is one of the big 407 00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:01,040 Speaker 1: failures of our media because buck as we've said, the 408 00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:05,960 Speaker 1: Democratic Party, labeling everything is racist has real influence because 409 00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:10,560 Speaker 1: so many white people are terrified of being labeled racist 410 00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:16,280 Speaker 1: that they won't even address that video threatening violence if 411 00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:19,119 Speaker 1: police do their jobs. I mean, think about how wild 412 00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:23,160 Speaker 1: that is. The Black Lives Matter protesters in New York 413 00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:27,040 Speaker 1: City are threatening to burn the city down effectively if 414 00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:31,520 Speaker 1: police do their jobs. Protectives should be disproportionately high crime 415 00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:33,040 Speaker 1: areas of the city where a lot of black and 416 00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:36,119 Speaker 1: Latino New Yorkers live. By the way, this should be 417 00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:40,159 Speaker 1: something where if Joe Biden was actually a decent leader 418 00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:44,040 Speaker 1: at all, he would come out and say, look, police 419 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:47,640 Speaker 1: aren't perfect, but threatening to burn down a city over 420 00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:50,480 Speaker 1: them doing their jobs. After a year where we have 421 00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:54,480 Speaker 1: seen a skyrocketing murder rate, where the victims are overwhelmingly 422 00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:59,679 Speaker 1: minorities and inner cities, is fundamentally the exact opposite of 423 00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:03,000 Speaker 1: what an organization that claims to care about the betterment 424 00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:07,200 Speaker 1: of its people would be arguing for. But the Democratic 425 00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:10,119 Speaker 1: Party is so enthralled to the everything is racist mantra 426 00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:12,560 Speaker 1: that even though Joe Biden probably agrees with that, and 427 00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:16,000 Speaker 1: even though lots of Democratic politicians agree with that, they're 428 00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:19,159 Speaker 1: so terribly afraid of being called racist that they won't 429 00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:21,960 Speaker 1: say what I just said. Isn't it also remarkable how 430 00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:27,959 Speaker 1: the only law enforcement that the organized Democrat left absolutely 431 00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:32,480 Speaker 1: backs without questions the cops of the Capitol Hill Police, 432 00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:36,439 Speaker 1: particularly the cop who shot an unarmed female protester in 433 00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:38,800 Speaker 1: the neck from you know, fifteen feet away through a door. 434 00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:43,840 Speaker 1: They are not to be questioned play law enforcement. The prosecutor, 435 00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:50,760 Speaker 1: specifically in Kenosha, a great American hero. This guy a Binger, 436 00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:54,240 Speaker 1: I believe his name is right, He's This is the 437 00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:56,840 Speaker 1: system working the way it's supposed to. The only law 438 00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:00,639 Speaker 1: enforcement that the left backs are those instruments of the 439 00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:03,840 Speaker 1: law enforcement community that can be used as a political 440 00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:07,280 Speaker 1: weapon against their opponents. And also note the notion of 441 00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:11,320 Speaker 1: the left as people who care about constitutional protections and 442 00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:16,560 Speaker 1: civil liberties. That evaporates the moment the narrative goes against them, 443 00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:20,800 Speaker 1: that evaporates. Well, you mentioned Hakim Jeffreys, a New York politician. 444 00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:23,600 Speaker 1: Buck he doesn't want anybody to go to prison, but 445 00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:25,920 Speaker 1: he tweeted that he wants Kyle Rittenhouse to go to prison, 446 00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:27,879 Speaker 1: and he wants him to lock up, lock him up, 447 00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:32,840 Speaker 1: and throw away the key. Yeah, he's a representative. I 448 00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:38,040 Speaker 1: think he represents Yeah, New York's eighth congressional here. So 449 00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:41,000 Speaker 1: you know, he's a guy who you would think, maybe 450 00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:44,040 Speaker 1: would believe in the presumption of innocence. And you would 451 00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:46,520 Speaker 1: say to yourself, well, no, of course not, because it's 452 00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:50,280 Speaker 1: Kyle Rittenhouse who stood. Remember Kyle Rittenhouse's crime, more than 453 00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:53,359 Speaker 1: anything else, as far as the left is concerned, is 454 00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:55,439 Speaker 1: not that he was even carrying an a R fifteen, 455 00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:58,199 Speaker 1: which is legal legal in this data. It's just a 456 00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 1: semi automatic rifle. I know, it's a scary looking sam 457 00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:05,640 Speaker 1: Animac rifle. It's not that even he defended himself because 458 00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:08,399 Speaker 1: they know they'll oppose self defense sometimes just because of 459 00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:10,960 Speaker 1: who the victim or who the attacker may be. It's 460 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:15,800 Speaker 1: because he stood in the way of the BLM riot 461 00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:17,919 Speaker 1: and you're not allowed to do that. That's all that 462 00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:20,600 Speaker 1: matters to them. Everything else is irrelevant the facts of 463 00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:24,800 Speaker 1: the case. You could have signed confessions Clay by the guys, 464 00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:27,680 Speaker 1: or by the by the one surviving member who says, 465 00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:31,120 Speaker 1: you know what, I shouldn't have attacked him. It was wrong. 466 00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:33,720 Speaker 1: I shouldn't have been there, and you would still have 467 00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:35,919 Speaker 1: the left saying that Rittenhouse deserves to be locked up 468 00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:37,600 Speaker 1: forever and is a bad guy. They don't care what 469 00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:39,800 Speaker 1: the facts of the case are and bring it back 470 00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:42,919 Speaker 1: to BLM. Here in New York City, it's gotten more violent, 471 00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:46,000 Speaker 1: more people have died, more people have been shot. They 472 00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:48,960 Speaker 1: got rid of a unit, a six hundred person playing 473 00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:53,320 Speaker 1: closed unit that was well known for its effectiveness in 474 00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:57,119 Speaker 1: stopping They're not harassing people for loose cigarettes. These guys 475 00:26:57,200 --> 00:27:00,639 Speaker 1: go after people who are carrying guns or knives or 476 00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:03,520 Speaker 1: other weapons and intending to use them to harm innocent people. 477 00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:07,600 Speaker 1: And they disband that unit. Clay. This is insane, and 478 00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:10,800 Speaker 1: Eric Adams is talking about bringing it back, which is 479 00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:15,160 Speaker 1: going to be an interesting battle inside of the Democratic Party. 480 00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:16,760 Speaker 1: And this is what we talked about with Trump. No 481 00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:20,080 Speaker 1: longer there. Many of the battles right now the Democratic 482 00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:24,240 Speaker 1: Party are fighting are not external versus Republicans. They're internal 483 00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:27,359 Speaker 1: within their own party. They've got a real civil war going, 484 00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:28,920 Speaker 1: they do, and I don't know how it's going to 485 00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:31,560 Speaker 1: resolve itself. Eight hundred two eight two two eight eight two. 486 00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:33,439 Speaker 1: If you want to weigh in on either Rittenhouse trial 487 00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:36,879 Speaker 1: or BLM leadership here in New York City, threatening the 488 00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:40,280 Speaker 1: mayor elect with fire and brimstone on the streets if 489 00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:44,000 Speaker 1: they bring back effective policing, that seems pretty crazy to 490 00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:47,600 Speaker 1: any rational person anyway, to call us eight hundred two 491 00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:50,679 Speaker 1: a two two eight eight two. You're a dog, my dog. 492 00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:52,800 Speaker 1: They should be given the best food and the best 493 00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:55,680 Speaker 1: supplements possible to live a long, healthy life. Most dog 494 00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:58,320 Speaker 1: food is dead food, meaning that all dry dog food 495 00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:00,439 Speaker 1: has to be manufactured so that I can last on 496 00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:04,040 Speaker 1: the shelf for years. So they have to sterilize it. Right, Well, 497 00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:07,520 Speaker 1: there's a lot of live microbacteria, good stuff that would 498 00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:09,960 Speaker 1: be in your dog's food that's gone because of that 499 00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:15,679 Speaker 1: sterilization process. Probiotics, enzymes, vitamins, omego oils, antioxidants, just the 500 00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:17,840 Speaker 1: way that you need that stuff. Your dog needs that 501 00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:20,919 Speaker 1: stuff too.

This is Buck in NYC 516 00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:14,600 Speaker 1: Clay out in Nashville, Tennessee, covering all the latest for you, 517 00:29:14,640 --> 00:29:19,840 Speaker 1: including the ongoing Kyle rittenhouse trial. Right now, we haven't 518 00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:22,880 Speaker 1: had any fireworks today like yesterday in this courtroom, but 519 00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:27,160 Speaker 1: we will bring you updates as they happen. Wonderesting Note 520 00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:30,360 Speaker 1: and clayt I were just discussing this in the commercial break, 521 00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:34,400 Speaker 1: is that Kyle Rittenhouse faces life in prison for this, 522 00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:37,760 Speaker 1: a mandatory life sentence on one of the counts of 523 00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:43,000 Speaker 1: intentional intentional homicide, effectively at the Wisconsin state level, something 524 00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:46,120 Speaker 1: similar to what we'd think of his first degree murder, 525 00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:49,600 Speaker 1: which is completely crazy. I mean the things that now 526 00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:51,840 Speaker 1: you can see not only should they not have brought charges, 527 00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:55,680 Speaker 1: but just for political reasons, it is clear they overcharge. 528 00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:58,600 Speaker 1: I mean that that there's anything that goes beyond what 529 00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:02,360 Speaker 1: would be more long line of manslaughter, a manslaughter charge, 530 00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:04,880 Speaker 1: something that would be like murder three on the New 531 00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:09,920 Speaker 1: York penal code is completely crazy. Michael, I want to 532 00:30:09,960 --> 00:30:12,440 Speaker 1: take some calls here, Michael and Lake Charles, Louisiana's got 533 00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:15,640 Speaker 1: some thoughts for us. What's up, Michael, Hey, guys, just 534 00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:19,600 Speaker 1: real quick, this trial is not about what Kyle Rittenhouse 535 00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:23,240 Speaker 1: actions were or were not. This is a trial. This 536 00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:27,120 Speaker 1: theater is a trial to show people that they that 537 00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:29,720 Speaker 1: the Left does not believe you have the ability or 538 00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:32,880 Speaker 1: the authority to defend yourself anymore. This is to show 539 00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:35,120 Speaker 1: just as if they went out to police with the 540 00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:38,360 Speaker 1: ability to enforce the law and uphold the law that 541 00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:41,240 Speaker 1: this is. This is not a belief that the left 542 00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:44,360 Speaker 1: holds anymore, and they want to show that as we transition, 543 00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:47,240 Speaker 1: or they try to transition us as a country, that 544 00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:49,959 Speaker 1: this right that we hold dear is not ours and 545 00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:51,880 Speaker 1: you shouldn't have the ability to do it. That's what 546 00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:55,800 Speaker 1: this whole thing is about. Yeah, look, the trial essentially 547 00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:58,800 Speaker 1: boils down to self defense, but there's no way to 548 00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:02,240 Speaker 1: analyze this and the charges, as Buck just pointed out, 549 00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:06,240 Speaker 1: being so wildly outlandish given the facts in the video 550 00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:08,880 Speaker 1: and the evidence that exist in this case, to be 551 00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:12,640 Speaker 1: charged with effectively first degree murder. This is a self 552 00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:16,959 Speaker 1: defense case, but it's more about sending a message political 553 00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:19,880 Speaker 1: message by the charges being filed in the first place 554 00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:24,240 Speaker 1: of this degree of severity, and honestly, Buck, this often happens. 555 00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:29,479 Speaker 1: You overreach politically and end up charging with a higher 556 00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:32,040 Speaker 1: level of crime than you should have in order to 557 00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:35,640 Speaker 1: try to send a message to the larger populace. Sometimes 558 00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:38,880 Speaker 1: that blows up in your face because you can't come 559 00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:43,080 Speaker 1: close to proving that crime, and so when you overcharge, 560 00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:46,200 Speaker 1: you can end up under delivering and it seems quite 561 00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:49,120 Speaker 1: clear that's what may well happen here. And overcharging, also 562 00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:51,960 Speaker 1: from a prosecutor's perspective, is unethical. I mean, you're not 563 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:56,520 Speaker 1: supposed to You're supposed to go with the highest readily 564 00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:58,640 Speaker 1: provable count. I'm supposed to just sort of shoot for 565 00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:01,280 Speaker 1: the moon to hope. Well, we're gonna tell everybody's person's 566 00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:03,440 Speaker 1: a mass murder, or maybe we'll get them on jaywalking. Right, 567 00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:07,920 Speaker 1: You're not supposed to do that, Johnny, Johnny the truck 568 00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:10,600 Speaker 1: driver is the name that we have here. Johnny, how 569 00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:14,000 Speaker 1: are you play? First off, I gotta say thank you 570 00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:17,240 Speaker 1: to all the service members who ever served. I've enjoyed 571 00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:21,360 Speaker 1: my freedom over the last decades, and over the last decades, 572 00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:23,960 Speaker 1: I've seen this city go from bad in the seventies 573 00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:27,920 Speaker 1: and eighties to better, and now it's getting worse. Last year, 574 00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:31,080 Speaker 1: during the riots, I had to down my boss. I said, 575 00:32:31,560 --> 00:32:35,480 Speaker 1: I can't go to Brownsville. It's it's just not safe 576 00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:38,440 Speaker 1: for me. Uh you know. I would go there all 577 00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:41,040 Speaker 1: the time, no problem. There would be a police presence. 578 00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:44,440 Speaker 1: I'd see the plane close, cops taking down the parks 579 00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:48,720 Speaker 1: with the guns, and I feel safe. But my life 580 00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:51,080 Speaker 1: isn't worth a two hundred and forty dollars a day 581 00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:54,800 Speaker 1: pay to go be subjected to somebody who thinks that 582 00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:57,920 Speaker 1: cops are horrible when the cops are trying to help them. 583 00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:02,440 Speaker 1: It takes a brave guy hunt down guys who got guns. 584 00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:05,200 Speaker 1: You're not going to, like you would say at Jaywalker, 585 00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:10,560 Speaker 1: piece are played helpful pieces of society. Yeah that that. 586 00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:13,080 Speaker 1: Thank you so much, Johnny for calling in from New 587 00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:15,640 Speaker 1: York City here where I am and Clay, that's the 588 00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:18,200 Speaker 1: six hundred person playing Close Unit. I mean, look, the 589 00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:23,120 Speaker 1: NYPD has are over forty thousand people, you know, officers 590 00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:25,440 Speaker 1: and civilians in it. When you add it all up together, 591 00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:28,960 Speaker 1: it's a huge organization. If you're in that playing Closed Unit, 592 00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:32,280 Speaker 1: it's because you've proven yourself and you want to you 593 00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:34,600 Speaker 1: want to be part of a tip of the spear 594 00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:39,800 Speaker 1: effort to stop criminals from hurting innocent people just trying 595 00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:43,239 Speaker 1: to go about their lives. That de Blasio, because of 596 00:33:43,240 --> 00:33:47,200 Speaker 1: the moral panic over racial justice in this country in 597 00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:52,400 Speaker 1: twenty twenty, would set aside effectively disband that unit just 598 00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:55,479 Speaker 1: goes to show you that this was never about making 599 00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:58,640 Speaker 1: people safer or making their lives better. It was about 600 00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:03,160 Speaker 1: appeasing the narrow of the leftist mob. You're hundred percent 601 00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:06,000 Speaker 1: right on that buck. I would also reinforce a lot 602 00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:10,000 Speaker 1: of times, the answer is due less. Social media creates 603 00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:13,240 Speaker 1: this pressure, we gotta do something. We've got to respond 604 00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:16,480 Speaker 1: because one hundred people just tweeted us, because we've got 605 00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:20,960 Speaker 1: all these Facebook messages coming in, And honestly, the answer 606 00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:25,520 Speaker 1: is oftentimes do less rather than destroy what has worked 607 00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:31,280 Speaker 1: for years because of some viral pressure or anecdotal story 608 00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:34,080 Speaker 1: that is raining down pressure and you in the short term, 609 00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:37,920 Speaker 1: it's often better to take a breath, say we'll readdress 610 00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:41,640 Speaker 1: this in twenty four hours, because it's almost always the 611 00:34:41,680 --> 00:34:45,800 Speaker 1: case that twenty four hours after any story, it's gone 612 00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:48,759 Speaker 1: and most people forget it. There's a new viral outrage 613 00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:51,520 Speaker 1: always coming down. You've probably heard, I've heard for a 614 00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:53,919 Speaker 1: while people say, if you're really angry and you're about 615 00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:56,719 Speaker 1: to write an email, always wait till the next day. 616 00:34:56,880 --> 00:34:59,480 Speaker 1: You know, yeah, because there is just a greater clarity. 617 00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:03,000 Speaker 1: You realize nine times out of ten it doesn't really matter. 618 00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:05,920 Speaker 1: It's not worth sending it. And that's not a new thing. 619 00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:08,920 Speaker 1: Abraham Lincoln. Before you know, we obviously had an email 620 00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:12,000 Speaker 1: back in the day, would advocate for if you're angry 621 00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:14,640 Speaker 1: at someone, write them a letter before you mail it, 622 00:35:14,719 --> 00:35:17,200 Speaker 1: put it in your desk, come back and read it 623 00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:19,799 Speaker 1: the next day, and decide should I or should I not? 624 00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:22,440 Speaker 1: Like my favorite Abraham Lincoln quote, don't believe everything you 625 00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:23,960 Speaker 1: read on the internet. You know what I mean, it's 626 00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:26,719 Speaker 1: very important. I haven't made a dad joke on the 627 00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:29,759 Speaker 1: show in a while. I'm not even depressed. I went 628 00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:32,200 Speaker 1: to go to my kid's school to walk around and 629 00:35:32,440 --> 00:35:35,360 Speaker 1: visit all the teachers, and one of them had that 630 00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:38,920 Speaker 1: poster on the wall that with basically that same quote 631 00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:43,120 Speaker 1: about Abraham Lincoln and the Internet trying to teach the kids. Hey, 632 00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:45,080 Speaker 1: which is different than when you or I grew up. 633 00:35:45,080 --> 00:35:47,799 Speaker 1: You have access to all this information, but is it 634 00:35:47,960 --> 00:35:51,400 Speaker 1: actually good information? Being able to distinguish truth and falsehood 635 00:35:51,400 --> 00:35:53,479 Speaker 1: has never been born. There's so many it's so easy 636 00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:55,880 Speaker 1: to spread. There are so many great quotes that you 637 00:35:55,960 --> 00:35:59,000 Speaker 1: find that people think come from a certain famous person. 638 00:35:59,080 --> 00:36:01,760 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, they're actually just like internet chatter. That someone 639 00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:04,360 Speaker 1: then said, you know, Sophocles came up with this, Like 640 00:36:04,400 --> 00:36:07,680 Speaker 1: I actually know some guy named Bob living in Omaha. 641 00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:10,880 Speaker 1: He came up with it, but he put a Sophocles photodexer. Anyway, 642 00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:13,080 Speaker 1: we're gonna come back in here a second. We really 643 00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:16,480 Speaker 1: want to focus in this next hour on Veterans Day. 644 00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:19,439 Speaker 1: One of our sponsors Tune of the Towers Foundation, which 645 00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:22,520 Speaker 1: does incredible work for veterans day in and day out. 646 00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:24,920 Speaker 1: We're gonna be joined by the founder, Frank Siller.
