WEBVTT - The Coup Hysteria Continues 0:00:01.639 --> 0:00:04.920 You're listening to the Buck Sexton Show podcast, make sure 0:00:04.920 --> 0:00:07.960 you subscribe to the podcast on the iHeartRadio app or 0:00:07.960 --> 0:00:11.400 wherever you get your podcasts. I thought we were supposed 0:00:11.400 --> 0:00:13.920 to be unified. I thought they were going to bring 0:00:14.000 --> 0:00:16.440 us all together, that we were entering a new phase 0:00:17.120 --> 0:00:19.239 in the history of the country, or at least in 0:00:19.239 --> 0:00:21.240 the recent history, where we were all supposed to be 0:00:21.880 --> 0:00:29.320 buddies united, coming together in this new, technocratic, competent, calm 0:00:29.480 --> 0:00:32.720 Biden administration. Right, that was the promise. And now what 0:00:32.800 --> 0:00:36.879 you're already seeing is that the Biden people aren't as 0:00:36.920 --> 0:00:40.560 smart as they told you they would be, don't give 0:00:40.600 --> 0:00:46.199 a crap about unity, and are actually ideologues driven by 0:00:46.200 --> 0:00:50.320 their desire to play kate the fringe interests that have 0:00:50.400 --> 0:00:53.280 so much control within the Democrat Party, whether it's on 0:00:53.400 --> 0:01:00.240 identity politics, environmental issues, social justice, all these things. It's 0:01:00.240 --> 0:01:02.560 not the presidency they said we'd get. But if you 0:01:02.640 --> 0:01:04.640 knew that was the case, it was always a lie. 0:01:05.319 --> 0:01:09.160 It was always meant to convince medium to low information 0:01:09.280 --> 0:01:14.560 suburban voters in some key states. You'll just have a 0:01:14.640 --> 0:01:20.080 return to normalcy, that's what they said, a return to normalcy. Well, 0:01:20.120 --> 0:01:22.679 it turns out that's not what we're getting. What we're 0:01:22.680 --> 0:01:28.000 getting is the return of the Obama administration. That's what's 0:01:28.000 --> 0:01:32.160 really happening here. That's the reality of what has now 0:01:32.319 --> 0:01:37.440 taken power. And you see this with every decision being 0:01:37.480 --> 0:01:40.720 made so far, and also all the people who are 0:01:40.760 --> 0:01:44.040 in charge, the people that are making the decisions right now, 0:01:44.040 --> 0:01:47.120 who are making the calls about everything that's happening, are 0:01:47.280 --> 0:01:49.880 very similar in some cases the same as those who 0:01:49.880 --> 0:01:52.680 were doing it during the Obama years. You remember the 0:01:52.720 --> 0:01:56.320 Obama years. Was there a lot of national healing? Did 0:01:56.320 --> 0:02:01.360 it really bring us all together? There were race riots 0:02:01.400 --> 0:02:05.200 during the Obama Obama presidency, as you remember the BLM 0:02:05.280 --> 0:02:11.680 protests started. Then, there were there was economic malaise at best, 0:02:11.760 --> 0:02:16.880 the slowest recovery out of a recession since the Great Depression. 0:02:17.720 --> 0:02:21.840 There was a lot of unnecessary government regulation and harassment 0:02:21.840 --> 0:02:24.040 of people in their day to day lives. There was 0:02:24.200 --> 0:02:29.280 oppression of religious freedom, there was suppression of free speech. 0:02:29.360 --> 0:02:33.680 You're getting all that just coming back under a different name, 0:02:33.800 --> 0:02:37.959 but the same idea. And this is why I think 0:02:37.960 --> 0:02:41.160 it's so interesting that they want to continue to fixate 0:02:41.240 --> 0:02:45.600 on the Trump presidency, because I think that They never 0:02:45.680 --> 0:02:48.840 really thought beyond what happens when there's no longer the 0:02:48.919 --> 0:02:55.119 Trump boogeyman for everyone to be terrified of what happens 0:02:55.919 --> 0:02:58.720 at that phase, at that point when you can't just well, 0:02:58.760 --> 0:03:01.280 they're not letting it go. That's why you have this 0:03:01.400 --> 0:03:05.600 impeachment that they're going to do after a Trump presidency 0:03:05.680 --> 0:03:09.400 has already ended. Joe Biden I was gonna say, for 0:03:09.480 --> 0:03:11.200 better or for worse, it's for worse is now the 0:03:11.200 --> 0:03:14.160 president United States. This is an absurd spectacle. We all 0:03:14.240 --> 0:03:17.640 understand this. I mean, you could have replaced Joe Biden 0:03:17.680 --> 0:03:22.080 with forty other sub mediocre Democrat politicians. It'd be basically 0:03:22.080 --> 0:03:24.800 the same thing, just anybody. But Trump was what they 0:03:24.880 --> 0:03:26.840 ran with and that's what they were able to pull off. 0:03:28.240 --> 0:03:31.080 And now we see what they're really going to be doing, 0:03:32.320 --> 0:03:35.160 and now we see what the actual decision making will 0:03:35.160 --> 0:03:40.080 be like. And that's why with this impeachment situation, they're 0:03:40.240 --> 0:03:43.240 they're making it clear for everybody who's watching exactly what's 0:03:43.240 --> 0:03:46.560 going on. You can see it. They're not hiding it. 0:03:47.080 --> 0:03:52.480 They're keeping thousands and thousands of National Guard soldiers in 0:03:52.760 --> 0:04:03.000 DC for the entirety of the impeachment Democrats to actually 0:04:03.040 --> 0:04:07.520 get Trump convicted would need seventeen Republicans to go along 0:04:07.560 --> 0:04:12.720 with this. But I think the even more important, the 0:04:12.840 --> 0:04:18.159 even more important situation here is that there's a for me, 0:04:19.640 --> 0:04:23.000 a clear there's there's a clear decision that has been 0:04:23.040 --> 0:04:27.279 made that they want all these troops in DC because 0:04:27.320 --> 0:04:31.719 we're supposed to believe that there's still a threat of 0:04:31.920 --> 0:04:36.880 a coup. They want everyone terrified, they want everyone worried 0:04:36.920 --> 0:04:41.359 about the possibility of you know, the Trump supporters storming 0:04:41.400 --> 0:04:44.839 the gates and stopping the Senate impeachment trial or whatever. 0:04:46.040 --> 0:04:50.040 This is hysteria, but it's important for their power grab. 0:04:50.760 --> 0:04:53.679 Or if you look throughout history, whenever there are authoritarians, 0:04:53.680 --> 0:04:55.840 whenever there are people that are taking more power than 0:04:55.839 --> 0:04:59.880 they are legally, constitutionally or otherwise supposed to be granted 0:05:00.040 --> 0:05:04.120 in government, whatever that happens, they have an excuse, They 0:05:04.160 --> 0:05:07.479 have some rational it's always the other guys, we're going 0:05:07.560 --> 0:05:09.719 to do this first, or if we didn't do this, 0:05:10.160 --> 0:05:12.919 you know, this terrible thing was going to happen. They 0:05:12.960 --> 0:05:17.800 don't just say, yeah, we're we're despots. We're seizing all 0:05:17.839 --> 0:05:20.280 authority and power into our hand because we like it. 0:05:20.680 --> 0:05:22.600 Because we think we're better than you because we think 0:05:22.640 --> 0:05:25.680 we know better than you, and you're not allowed to complain. 0:05:26.120 --> 0:05:28.919 That's not the pitch. That's not the way they justify 0:05:28.960 --> 0:05:32.479 their actions, even when that's exactly what they're doing. So here, 0:05:32.560 --> 0:05:36.680 what they've decided to do is that they take it 0:05:36.760 --> 0:05:42.080 upon themselves to be the people ordering thousands and thousands 0:05:42.160 --> 0:05:48.120 of National Guard to be deployed all throughout DC because 0:05:48.120 --> 0:05:51.800 of the threat of Trump supporters. I mean, this is 0:05:52.120 --> 0:05:55.480 this is absurd. We're really supposed to think that that 0:05:55.800 --> 0:05:59.200 Trump supporters are going to do? What will they protest 0:05:59.240 --> 0:06:02.760 in DC? Abe? But a are we to think that 0:06:02.800 --> 0:06:06.440 they're gonna violently try to overthrow the Senate or do 0:06:06.560 --> 0:06:09.320 something along those lines. I know what they would say. 0:06:09.360 --> 0:06:11.440 I know the Democrat response would be, they tried it 0:06:11.560 --> 0:06:14.840 that one time, on that one day. All right. It 0:06:14.920 --> 0:06:18.440 was a disaster. It wasn't a coup. It was a riot. 0:06:19.240 --> 0:06:23.440 And anybody who has any sense at all understands that 0:06:23.520 --> 0:06:27.600 it was the worst possible thing from a purely political standpoint. 0:06:28.320 --> 0:06:30.640 It was the worst possible thing that a Trump supporter 0:06:31.080 --> 0:06:34.120 could have done on that day at that time. It 0:06:34.279 --> 0:06:36.880 played right, It played right into the Democrats hands put 0:06:36.880 --> 0:06:40.920 aside the illegality and immorality of it for a moment. 0:06:41.120 --> 0:06:43.680 It played right into the Democrats hands. So we're gonna 0:06:43.680 --> 0:06:47.039 believe it, that's gonna happen again. No, but they want 0:06:47.120 --> 0:06:50.440 thousands and thousands of troops deployed so that this can 0:06:50.480 --> 0:06:54.279 be the way that the hysterical Democrats, Oh my gosh, 0:06:54.279 --> 0:06:57.839 the Trump supporters can continue to play this game while 0:06:57.880 --> 0:07:01.919 they show everybody while during this transition period, not the 0:07:01.960 --> 0:07:05.760 official presidential transition that's already happened, but this change into 0:07:05.800 --> 0:07:09.080 the new regime. We don't really pay attention to what 0:07:09.160 --> 0:07:12.480 Biden's doing. We don't pay attention to the actions he's 0:07:12.520 --> 0:07:15.560 taking because the media will just be focused on one, 0:07:15.680 --> 0:07:18.080 how amazing Biden. Do you know that his son went 0:07:18.240 --> 0:07:21.000 bagel shopping with him on Sunday after going to church. 0:07:21.680 --> 0:07:27.440 It's disgusting, the throne shining, the foot rubbing, the Oh gosh, 0:07:27.520 --> 0:07:30.360 Joe Biden's so amazing. Stuff you're seeing from the media 0:07:30.480 --> 0:07:33.880 is there. They're an embarrassment, but this is their business model, 0:07:34.560 --> 0:07:39.400 telling Democrats, telling the brainwashed left, how incredible this this 0:07:40.920 --> 0:07:45.400 clown Joe Biden is. I mean, really, we're all supposed 0:07:45.400 --> 0:07:47.440 to think that he's some great leaders, some great mind. 0:07:47.600 --> 0:07:50.440 Nobody believes that, but they're all acting like it's true. 0:07:51.240 --> 0:07:54.880 This is the emperor having no clothes on, except the 0:07:54.920 --> 0:07:58.600 emperor is almost eighty years old, and you do worry 0:07:58.680 --> 0:08:00.920 that he actually doesn't remember where pants. I mean, that's 0:08:00.920 --> 0:08:03.680 where we are with this situation. But oh, we need 0:08:03.800 --> 0:08:07.840 thousands of National Guard deployed. And they're even asking, they're 0:08:07.920 --> 0:08:11.720 raising the question themselves, why are we on the streets 0:08:11.720 --> 0:08:14.200 of DC exactly? What are we doing here? What's the mission? 0:08:14.920 --> 0:08:18.240 What's the real threat? You know what the threat is. 0:08:18.640 --> 0:08:21.680 They're gonna tell you. They're gonna tell you that it's 0:08:23.200 --> 0:08:26.800 Trump voters trying to overthrow the Senator, some crazy nonsense 0:08:26.880 --> 0:08:30.120 like that. But the real problem is that they don't 0:08:30.200 --> 0:08:36.840 know how to keep their rage filled base happy without 0:08:37.000 --> 0:08:41.320 Donald Trump as the ultimate political pinata. And they also 0:08:41.520 --> 0:08:44.319 don't want people to start to see that Joe Biden 0:08:44.760 --> 0:08:47.520 is really an incompetent and that the people running this 0:08:47.559 --> 0:08:52.000 administration are the Democrat members of the establishment and the 0:08:52.040 --> 0:08:55.960 apparatus the left in general, who have decided what the 0:08:56.000 --> 0:08:59.680 policies will be, what the decision making will be. Joe 0:08:59.679 --> 0:09:05.280 Biden is just the vessel otherwise. Explain why he's getting 0:09:05.360 --> 0:09:08.960 rid of the Keystone XL pipeline. Explain why he thinks 0:09:09.440 --> 0:09:13.240 men should be able to compete in women's sports, biological 0:09:13.360 --> 0:09:18.600 males competing against biological females. Look at the whole list 0:09:18.600 --> 0:09:23.120 of executive orders. It was all divisive and bad policy. 0:09:23.840 --> 0:09:27.960 These were objectively bad decisions for the country. But it's 0:09:27.960 --> 0:09:30.280 what the left demands. You're gonna see a whole lot 0:09:30.320 --> 0:09:32.040 more of it. They didn't. They didn't wait very long, 0:09:32.080 --> 0:09:35.400 did they. They didn't wait at all. Because this is 0:09:35.400 --> 0:09:37.400 the presidency we're dealing with. They can tell you as 0:09:37.440 --> 0:09:40.000 much as they want about how there's other plans and 0:09:40.080 --> 0:09:42.520 other things, and just wait one day, we'll get there. 0:09:42.840 --> 0:09:46.160 But in the meantime, it's the continuation of the three 0:09:46.240 --> 0:09:50.600 ring circus around Donald Trump, and oh my gosh, the 0:09:50.640 --> 0:09:53.880 Republic will fall unless we have thousands and thousands of 0:09:53.920 --> 0:09:57.839 soldiers deployed to stop those big, bad, mean Trump supporters, 0:09:57.880 --> 0:10:02.160 all seventy five million of them. This is the Buck 0:10:02.240 --> 0:10:07.319 Sexton Show podcast. Follow Buck on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. 0:10:08.120 --> 0:10:12.200 What's the number one change of notice between from President 0:10:12.200 --> 0:10:16.040 Biden to President Biden from President Trump. It was very clear, George, 0:10:16.040 --> 0:10:18.800 and it was articulated multiple times. The President has said 0:10:18.800 --> 0:10:22.199 it publicly, but in a private session just sitting down 0:10:22.200 --> 0:10:25.160 with him and with the medical team, he's very serious. 0:10:25.160 --> 0:10:27.920 He says science is going to rule. We're gonna go 0:10:27.960 --> 0:10:30.559 by the facts. We're gonna go by the evidence. We're 0:10:30.559 --> 0:10:33.400 gonna go by the data. If something is wrong, like 0:10:33.559 --> 0:10:36.480 I just said, we're gonna just try and fix it, 0:10:36.640 --> 0:10:38.800 then we're gonna pull out all the stops to get 0:10:38.800 --> 0:10:43.000 our arms around this. Getting the vaccine situation on track 0:10:43.440 --> 0:10:47.160 is his highest priority. So I mean the idea that 0:10:47.200 --> 0:10:50.400 the president himself sits down with you and says, I 0:10:50.480 --> 0:10:53.000 want science to rule. Go out there and do everything 0:10:53.040 --> 0:10:55.400 we need to do to get it done. Just as 0:10:55.440 --> 0:11:00.760 really very refreshing. Science will rule is a terrifying slogan 0:11:00.800 --> 0:11:05.240 for anybody who knows history to hear science will rule. 0:11:05.440 --> 0:11:08.079 I thought we the people rule through our elected representatives. 0:11:08.120 --> 0:11:10.800 But now now all of a sudden, there's some high 0:11:10.880 --> 0:11:14.960 priesthood of the hashtag science variety that's going to be 0:11:15.000 --> 0:11:19.559 making really important policy decisions for us. You know who 0:11:19.640 --> 0:11:24.199 also thinks that science will rule? This is true Marxists. 0:11:25.000 --> 0:11:28.960 They always believe that all the social sciences, which aren't 0:11:29.000 --> 0:11:31.719 really science, as you know, but that there was a 0:11:32.200 --> 0:11:36.160 fact and evidence based way to order a society that 0:11:36.280 --> 0:11:40.400 was irrefutable and must be true, is always true, even 0:11:40.400 --> 0:11:44.079 when the results suck. That science is all you need, 0:11:44.120 --> 0:11:48.200 you see, to reorder humankind so that we can all 0:11:48.320 --> 0:11:52.199 have everything we need. And this is a fundamental tenet 0:11:52.240 --> 0:11:54.520 of Marxism is to treat it as though they're running 0:11:54.520 --> 0:11:58.160 a lab experiment on how to grow the fastest petunias, 0:11:58.400 --> 0:12:01.120 except we're talking about human beings. We're talking about the 0:12:01.120 --> 0:12:05.040 complexities and the moral questions that face the human race. 0:12:05.240 --> 0:12:09.079 But the Marxists believe that with science, that's all you need, 0:12:09.400 --> 0:12:12.559 and their science was really a pseudoscience of Marxism. That's 0:12:12.559 --> 0:12:14.800 the whole point, you see. It's the answer to everything. 0:12:14.960 --> 0:12:16.959 This is why it really is all a religious belief, 0:12:17.000 --> 0:12:22.000 you see. And Fauci is going to be for anybody 0:12:22.040 --> 0:12:24.280 who's watching and being honest about this, is going to 0:12:24.320 --> 0:12:27.440 be proven to be essentially a giant fraud in this 0:12:27.480 --> 0:12:31.600 whole process. He's been wrong. He's been wrong numerous times. 0:12:31.960 --> 0:12:37.400 Here's a fact for you, Doctor Fauci lied to the 0:12:37.440 --> 0:12:41.640 American people about masks by his own admission, because he 0:12:41.760 --> 0:12:44.520 thought that that was a better thing for us to 0:12:44.640 --> 0:12:48.600 go through when he said don't wear masks and then said, oh, 0:12:48.640 --> 0:12:51.000 it's because I thought we'd run out of masks, Okay, 0:12:51.120 --> 0:12:54.120 so he lied. This guy's a liar. This is the 0:12:54.120 --> 0:12:58.800 whole the Truth and Science administration. This guy deceived the 0:12:58.840 --> 0:13:02.280 American public. But really the truth is that he didn't 0:13:02.320 --> 0:13:05.120 deceive the American public the way he said. It's that 0:13:06.000 --> 0:13:09.440 all of science, until about five minutes ago, thought that 0:13:09.520 --> 0:13:12.400 wearing a mask and a pandemic like this wasn't going 0:13:12.480 --> 0:13:15.839 to have the kind of beneficial result. That doesn't mean 0:13:15.880 --> 0:13:19.000 no benefit, but wouldn't have the kind of beneficial results 0:13:19.120 --> 0:13:24.240 we keep being led to believe mask mandates will because 0:13:24.280 --> 0:13:27.320 it's become part of the religion. Now, that's not to 0:13:27.320 --> 0:13:29.040 say there's no truth to it. That's not to say 0:13:29.080 --> 0:13:31.160 that I'm telling you that they don't work at all 0:13:31.400 --> 0:13:33.880 or no. N ninety five masks and a clinical setting 0:13:33.920 --> 0:13:37.280 absolutely help with respiratory infections a disease, no question, and 0:13:37.320 --> 0:13:39.800 in some situations maybe a cloth mask would also have 0:13:39.960 --> 0:13:42.440 not the same benefit, but some benefit, but as a 0:13:42.480 --> 0:13:46.360 means of stopping the pandemic. Has it worked? Look around you. 0:13:47.120 --> 0:13:50.280 I'm in mask central here in New York City. Has 0:13:50.320 --> 0:13:53.120 it stopped the virus? Has it stopped the pandemic or 0:13:53.120 --> 0:13:55.440 even come close to it? No, we're setting all time records, 0:13:56.200 --> 0:13:58.480 but we didn't do it enough. That's why you're seeing. 0:13:58.960 --> 0:14:02.440 You can find them yourself to two or three articles 0:14:02.480 --> 0:14:04.640 now coming out last last week from the New York 0:14:04.640 --> 0:14:08.320 Times alone time a double mask, gotta I'm not making 0:14:08.320 --> 0:14:11.840 this up. Got a double mask. Well, you can see 0:14:12.160 --> 0:14:15.920 if you go back on my Twitter account, just to 0:14:15.920 --> 0:14:19.040 give you a sense. Somehow I can tell what's coming. 0:14:19.120 --> 0:14:23.280 Somehow I know what's going to happen here. But you 0:14:23.320 --> 0:14:25.840 go back in my Twitter account and you see that 0:14:25.920 --> 0:14:29.520 I said on December tenth. Here we are now. It 0:14:29.840 --> 0:14:34.640 is January twenty fifth, I tweeted on December tenth. Sometime 0:14:34.680 --> 0:14:38.320 in about mid January, when cases are still very high, 0:14:38.480 --> 0:14:42.400 despite all the painful lockdown insanity, there will be an 0:14:42.520 --> 0:14:45.760 n ninety five. Masks are actually far more effective. We 0:14:45.760 --> 0:14:48.800 should have advocated for those all along. Moment of recognition 0:14:48.920 --> 0:14:54.120 from the experts. Well, I shared yesterday a story from 0:14:54.840 --> 0:14:59.840 from CNN that says that Germany has mandated only medical 0:15:00.040 --> 0:15:03.640 grade masks. Why, because those homemade cloth masks that are 0:15:03.840 --> 0:15:06.480 so effective at blocking COVID, they're like, well, actually they 0:15:06.480 --> 0:15:10.680 don't look like they're that effective. And one large German state, Bavaria, 0:15:10.760 --> 0:15:15.640 has mandated N ninety five masks only. So now it's 0:15:15.680 --> 0:15:17.920 if you're not wearing an N ninety five mask, you 0:15:17.960 --> 0:15:20.640 can't even get on mass transit. You can't go into 0:15:20.640 --> 0:15:23.920 public places, not even one of those medical grade you know, 0:15:24.120 --> 0:15:28.880 two ply fabric masks gotta be N ninety five. Why 0:15:28.920 --> 0:15:30.440 did I know this was going to happen. I'm not 0:15:30.480 --> 0:15:32.640 a doctor, I'm not a Blue check MD. I'm not 0:15:32.640 --> 0:15:36.040 one of these these pandemic epidemiologists they keep putting on 0:15:36.080 --> 0:15:37.760 CNN every five minutes. Why did I know this was 0:15:37.800 --> 0:15:41.840 going to happen? Because I know what the arguments are here, 0:15:42.240 --> 0:15:44.200 and I know that they keep on being wrong and 0:15:44.280 --> 0:15:46.760 ignoring it and saying, shut up, wear your mask. It's 0:15:46.800 --> 0:15:50.200 gonna save us. Okay, hasn't saved us yet, has it? 0:15:51.240 --> 0:15:53.160 So what do they do? They change the argument, and 0:15:53.200 --> 0:15:57.440 then if you question them, you're the problem. Doctor Fauci 0:15:57.560 --> 0:16:00.160 was the beginning of this. He said, don't wear the mask, 0:16:00.280 --> 0:16:02.640 and then people said, Hold on a second. You know 0:16:03.760 --> 0:16:06.000 you now say wear them, and he says, well, I 0:16:06.120 --> 0:16:10.880 had to lie to you for your own good. An 0:16:10.920 --> 0:16:16.120 administration is that is ruled by science. That's what he said, 0:16:16.320 --> 0:16:20.040 ruled by science. You don't think that Fauci's a power 0:16:20.040 --> 0:16:22.520 mad little maniac. Now you know. He's the highest paid 0:16:22.600 --> 0:16:25.240 employee in the federal government, makes more than a four 0:16:25.280 --> 0:16:27.440 star general, makes more than the president of the United States. 0:16:27.680 --> 0:16:31.040 He's making over four hundred thousand dollars a year. It's 0:16:31.040 --> 0:16:33.960 a great gig to have, basically unfireable. He's been sitting 0:16:34.000 --> 0:16:37.160 there for decades. It's going to lots of meetings making 0:16:37.200 --> 0:16:41.240 bad policy decisions under the guise of the rule of science. 0:16:42.640 --> 0:16:45.280 The CDC with this whole thing, has been a disaster, 0:16:45.760 --> 0:16:51.000 a disaster, and it's because it's a decades long, decades 0:16:51.040 --> 0:16:55.640 long in the making, federal bureaucratic screw up, because there's 0:16:55.640 --> 0:16:57.960 no accountability, because you don't want government in charge of 0:16:58.040 --> 0:17:02.960 things because they don't do a good job. But oh, 0:17:03.000 --> 0:17:05.800 that's right, we'll be ruled by science, he says, as 0:17:05.800 --> 0:17:07.520 if that's all that's all that has to be said. 0:17:07.520 --> 0:17:10.800 And then beyond that, we're supposed to just be quiet 0:17:10.840 --> 0:17:14.840 and listen. Do as you're told. Oh, okay, we'll get 0:17:14.840 --> 0:17:16.760 into Gavin Newsom all of a sudden is going to 0:17:16.800 --> 0:17:20.000 open up California. Are the cases so different? There? Is 0:17:20.000 --> 0:17:22.480 it such a different situation? And if we're going to 0:17:22.560 --> 0:17:26.280 be ruled by the science, explain to me the science 0:17:26.800 --> 0:17:31.080 of not allowing the Keystone XL pipeline, which Biden just 0:17:31.160 --> 0:17:33.919 shot down. The whole project is now scrapped by executive 0:17:33.920 --> 0:17:37.840 FIAT not allowing the Keystone XEL pipeline when the State 0:17:37.880 --> 0:17:44.640 Department's analysis under the Obama administration was that blocking Keystone 0:17:44.800 --> 0:17:51.600 would increase CO two emissions. That's right, increase by blocking. 0:17:51.800 --> 0:17:55.840 But they're doing it anyway, ruled by science. They say, sure, 0:17:56.800 --> 0:17:59.480 you're in the freedom hunt. Thanks for listening to The 0:17:59.520 --> 0:18:02.800 Buckston Show podcast to get the latest from Buck at 0:18:02.800 --> 0:18:07.920 buck Sexton dot com. Well, I mean, obviously it was 0:18:08.080 --> 0:18:13.360 it was not an easy situation. I always did speak 0:18:13.840 --> 0:18:19.200 based on the data and the science, but obviously there 0:18:19.280 --> 0:18:23.439 was pressure about messaging that. And you know, I have 0:18:23.760 --> 0:18:29.400 I took no pleasure in having to sometimes publicly, even 0:18:29.480 --> 0:18:33.199 with the President there, to contradict what he was saying. 0:18:33.320 --> 0:18:36.320 But I felt as a scientist. I had to be 0:18:36.400 --> 0:18:39.800 true to myself and true to the science to make 0:18:39.840 --> 0:18:42.320 sure that where there were things that I thought might 0:18:42.400 --> 0:18:45.840 be misinformation, that I would have to correct that. And 0:18:45.880 --> 0:18:49.760 there were a number of instances of that. That is 0:18:49.800 --> 0:18:53.159 not a comfortable situation, you know. It also was in 0:18:53.200 --> 0:18:57.639 a comfortable situation for doctor Fauci is being in the 0:18:57.680 --> 0:19:00.360 position that you're supposed to have been preparing for your 0:19:00.359 --> 0:19:06.600 whole life and just being a disaster, having no real plan, 0:19:06.760 --> 0:19:13.320 no answers, just being a political megaphone of fear. I mean, 0:19:13.359 --> 0:19:15.520 I'm hearing people now who say, yes, buck, you know what, 0:19:15.920 --> 0:19:18.960 This is what democrats will tell you. Sure, some of 0:19:19.000 --> 0:19:23.560 the pandemic theater that we go through is idiotic. Sure, 0:19:24.359 --> 0:19:27.440 some of the things that we're being told to do 0:19:27.840 --> 0:19:31.159 make no sense, won't change anything, and it's absurd. But 0:19:31.320 --> 0:19:35.960 it's about conditioning the public to respond to health commands 0:19:36.000 --> 0:19:39.840 like this. Oh so it's Pavlovian. It's like we're all 0:19:39.840 --> 0:19:42.800 a bunch of dogs getting our treat from the government. 0:19:42.800 --> 0:19:46.000 Maybe we get patted on the head afterwards. This is 0:19:46.040 --> 0:19:49.000 what democrats who are being honest will openly tell you. Now, well, 0:19:49.000 --> 0:19:52.280 it's really sure, Maybe what you're doing makes no sense. 0:19:52.520 --> 0:19:56.680 But if everybody does something nonsensical about COVID, then there 0:19:56.760 --> 0:19:59.840 might be some benefit that comes from it. That's worth 0:20:00.000 --> 0:20:02.480 all the nonsense. For you. Tell that to the people 0:20:02.520 --> 0:20:04.760 who have lost their jobs, you know, Tell that to 0:20:04.800 --> 0:20:07.760 the people who are losing family members to severe depression 0:20:07.760 --> 0:20:11.400 and to suicide, to the kids who are losing developmental 0:20:11.440 --> 0:20:13.240 time in school that will never be able to get 0:20:13.240 --> 0:20:19.000 back all the costs that we're willing to take on apparently, 0:20:20.000 --> 0:20:22.080 or are we, because now all of a sudden, some 0:20:22.119 --> 0:20:24.520 Blue states are saying, you know what, we might have 0:20:24.560 --> 0:20:28.679 to reopen soon. Oh we'll get into that in a moment, 0:20:29.200 --> 0:20:31.840 because I first want to start with the ruled by 0:20:32.000 --> 0:20:36.880 science bullcrap here when it comes to the Keystone XL pipeline. 0:20:36.920 --> 0:20:41.400 Just as a quick review, the enviral wackos have decided 0:20:41.480 --> 0:20:45.399 this is this is gonna be like Waterloo for the 0:20:45.440 --> 0:20:48.720 fossil fuel industry. They think this is the single most 0:20:48.760 --> 0:20:51.360 important battle they can wage. And they're all celebrating now, 0:20:51.600 --> 0:20:54.320 and they got you know, Native American groups in on this, 0:20:54.400 --> 0:20:59.520 and all all the left wing virtue signaling nonsense piled 0:20:59.560 --> 0:21:03.240 together here to stop the Keystone XCEL pipeline. By way 0:21:03.240 --> 0:21:06.960 of quick review, the Keystone Xcel pipeline would take the 0:21:09.000 --> 0:21:14.240 oil sands from the from the from Canada, from Alberta 0:21:14.320 --> 0:21:18.639 and take them all the way down to the US 0:21:18.920 --> 0:21:24.199 Gulf Coast. That's what that's the whole thing, right, And 0:21:24.280 --> 0:21:28.680 it's a pipeline. And the truth is that this would 0:21:28.680 --> 0:21:31.720 have just been a very efficient way because we refine 0:21:31.760 --> 0:21:34.080 it so we would have a refinery agreement with them, 0:21:34.080 --> 0:21:35.159 and then we'd be able to distribute it to the 0:21:35.200 --> 0:21:38.200 whole world. This would be a very effective and efficient 0:21:38.240 --> 0:21:42.119 way to get the oil to market. And despite the 0:21:42.200 --> 0:21:46.800 Left's best intentions otherwise, we have become America has become 0:21:46.880 --> 0:21:51.960 because of fracking, an energy a true energy superpower. We're 0:21:52.000 --> 0:21:55.080 really the world's global preeminent energy superpower. You don't hear 0:21:55.080 --> 0:21:57.760 about that because about half the country Democrats are so 0:21:57.920 --> 0:22:01.879 brainwashed that they think that's not something to be proud of. 0:22:02.240 --> 0:22:05.760 It absolutely is. It's the reason we have so much productivity. 0:22:06.040 --> 0:22:10.840 The fossil fuel industry is used in the creation fifty 0:22:10.880 --> 0:22:14.359 percent of oil, for example, and fossil fuel is used 0:22:14.800 --> 0:22:19.120 for products and is used in the distribution of products, 0:22:19.119 --> 0:22:23.720 you know, distribution of things like vaccine, that's right. Want 0:22:23.760 --> 0:22:27.480 you want an effective vaccination distribution program, you need a 0:22:27.640 --> 0:22:33.320 lot of energy for logistics. You need a lot of 0:22:33.560 --> 0:22:37.360 energy in order to keep that temperature at negative whatever 0:22:37.400 --> 0:22:40.640 it is, a degree celsius so that the vaccine can 0:22:40.680 --> 0:22:44.000 stay viable. And you need money for all of this, 0:22:44.119 --> 0:22:47.280 and it becomes more expensive when oil and fossil fuels 0:22:47.280 --> 0:22:51.760 are more expensive. They are fighting the modern economy itself, 0:22:52.520 --> 0:22:55.440 which is an absurdity, and they pretend that they're doing 0:22:55.480 --> 0:22:58.479 in the name of science, which is laughable. Do you 0:22:58.520 --> 0:23:02.320 know what the net CO two benefit of blocking the 0:23:02.359 --> 0:23:07.600 Keystone XL pipeline. According to multiple full State Department reviews, 0:23:07.600 --> 0:23:10.160 Because it is an international deal, the State Department got 0:23:10.160 --> 0:23:13.320 to review it, including under the Obama administration, the net 0:23:13.400 --> 0:23:17.840 CO two change is either negligible to zero or negative, 0:23:18.200 --> 0:23:21.880 meaning that this oil is still going to come out 0:23:21.920 --> 0:23:24.720 of the ground. It's just going to be taken in 0:23:24.840 --> 0:23:28.560 tankers and trucks to market instead of with a pipeline, 0:23:28.760 --> 0:23:31.760 which is far more efficient and far more cost effective 0:23:31.960 --> 0:23:35.560 and also less likely eutherapy leakage and spills which affect 0:23:35.560 --> 0:23:42.280 the environment. The Keystone XL pipeline blockage is worse for 0:23:42.359 --> 0:23:45.720 everyone in every way. It is worse for the environment, 0:23:45.840 --> 0:23:48.359 It is worse for business, It is worse for you 0:23:48.920 --> 0:23:52.000 because of what it means for jobs, for the economy, 0:23:52.040 --> 0:23:56.120 and for energy costs. But Democrats are blocking it anyway. 0:23:56.160 --> 0:24:03.640 Why because they can, Because the envirol wackos have convinced 0:24:03.640 --> 0:24:05.800 themselves that this is a battle they have to win. 0:24:06.240 --> 0:24:09.560 They have to show that they have the power even 0:24:09.640 --> 0:24:14.360 when all science and reason are against them, even when 0:24:14.400 --> 0:24:17.200 there is no data to support their point of view. 0:24:18.440 --> 0:24:22.400 They have to find a situation like this where they 0:24:22.400 --> 0:24:26.320 can rally together and get the government to shut down 0:24:26.400 --> 0:24:31.360 something because they don't like it. Oil is ikey, fossil 0:24:31.400 --> 0:24:37.720 fuel bad. Shut it down. It's childish, it's destructive, it's stupid, 0:24:38.240 --> 0:24:40.520 and it's the first thing that Biden does day one 0:24:40.760 --> 0:24:42.800 in office, signs an executive order on this to stop 0:24:42.840 --> 0:24:48.080 the Keystone XIL pipeline. There's no good faith argument about 0:24:48.119 --> 0:24:51.040 why to shut this thing down compared to the alternatives, 0:24:51.240 --> 0:24:53.639 if it's really about the environment, unless you're gonna say, oh, 0:24:53.680 --> 0:24:56.359 it's because there would definitely be some kind of an 0:24:56.480 --> 0:24:59.520 oil disaster. They don't know that, and pipelines are far 0:25:00.440 --> 0:25:03.760 less likely to have spills and disasters than other forms 0:25:03.760 --> 0:25:08.199 of transport. Yeah, how many horrible oil pipeline disasters have 0:25:08.240 --> 0:25:11.880
