1 00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:01,360 Speaker 1: Welcome everybody. 2 00:00:01,400 --> 00:00:05,000 Speaker 2: Monday edition of The Clay Travis en Buck Sexton Show 3 00:00:05,280 --> 00:00:07,360 Speaker 2: kicks off right now. 4 00:00:08,039 --> 00:00:10,160 Speaker 1: Markets look a little rough this morning. 5 00:00:10,200 --> 00:00:13,680 Speaker 2: We'll discuss this is a time for a rate cut 6 00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:17,919 Speaker 2: at the FED. Trump certainly thinks so he's losing patience 7 00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:22,520 Speaker 2: with Jerome Powell. Obviously the biggest news story today, We 8 00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:26,040 Speaker 2: will dive into it shortly. Here is the passing of 9 00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:30,280 Speaker 2: Pope Francis. You got billions of Catholics around the world 10 00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:35,960 Speaker 2: very very much dialed into the legacy, the life and legacy. 11 00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:38,839 Speaker 1: Of Pope Francis. So we shall discuss some of that. 12 00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:42,080 Speaker 2: Jade Vance just met with him on Sunday, So it 13 00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:44,400 Speaker 2: does seem a bit sudden that all of a sudden 14 00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:46,879 Speaker 2: the Pope is no more. They're going to have to 15 00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:49,720 Speaker 2: elect a new one. The conclave's going to get together, 16 00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:51,760 Speaker 2: the smoke's gonna have to come out of the chimney, 17 00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:55,680 Speaker 2: all that stuff. So we shall discuss that the first 18 00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:59,440 Speaker 2: Jesuit pope, which is I think interesting, and the first 19 00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:03,960 Speaker 2: Latin American pope. Those are the two standouts, at least 20 00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:06,399 Speaker 2: in terms of his bio. We can talk about some 21 00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:10,039 Speaker 2: of his policies and some of his well, some of 22 00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:11,960 Speaker 2: what he stood for some of what he said. Coming 23 00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:16,000 Speaker 2: up here, We've got updates on immigration and deportation, specifically 24 00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:21,520 Speaker 2: Democrats still making kill Abrego Garcia one of their great 25 00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:25,120 Speaker 2: causes some when they are very concerned with returning to 26 00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:28,240 Speaker 2: the United States so that we can deport him again. 27 00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:29,240 Speaker 1: Just want to be clear. 28 00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 2: I don't think anyone believes that that is not what 29 00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:34,840 Speaker 2: the end state of the legal system would be. But 30 00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:36,760 Speaker 2: we got to bring him back so we can deport 31 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:39,200 Speaker 2: him the right way. They say, is he member of 32 00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:43,920 Speaker 2: MS thirteen, Yeah, but maybe they'll say he's not. Depends 33 00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:47,240 Speaker 2: on the day. So we have more on that for 34 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:49,560 Speaker 2: all of you. Also, Clay, I thought this was interesting. 35 00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:53,360 Speaker 2: There's reporting the Wall Street Journal that the Trump administration 36 00:01:53,720 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 2: is considering different ways to encourage having kids a pro 37 00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:05,880 Speaker 2: I guess it's a pro natalism policy, having more babies 38 00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:09,680 Speaker 2: they want. Trump wants more babies, probably as many babies 39 00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 2: as we can have. 40 00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:13,639 Speaker 1: So you know, certainly Elon's doing his best to help 41 00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:17,680 Speaker 1: out there. Elon, you could say he's a pioneer. 42 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:19,799 Speaker 2: I'm not sure everybody would agree with the way he's 43 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:21,639 Speaker 2: doing it, but you could say he's a pioneer in 44 00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:26,400 Speaker 2: the natalism world. In the pro he's definitely pro baby making. 45 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:30,120 Speaker 2: That part of it we could all agree on. But Clay, 46 00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:33,000 Speaker 2: I was thinking about this this morning. I think nationwide 47 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:36,360 Speaker 2: about twenty percent. Oh wait, sorry, before we get into that, 48 00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:39,880 Speaker 2: and they're going after Pete hegseeth again. They really want 49 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:42,520 Speaker 2: they really want that sec def scalp the media. It's 50 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 2: not going to happen. It's a lot of retread of 51 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:47,600 Speaker 2: old stories and everything else. 52 00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:49,160 Speaker 1: They're not going to get it. But you can tell 53 00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:51,320 Speaker 1: they're really turning up the. 54 00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:53,679 Speaker 2: Heat on him more than anyone else the administration, which 55 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:55,680 Speaker 2: I think for a lot of us indicates well, that 56 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:57,880 Speaker 2: means we definitely want him to stay. That means he's 57 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 2: shaking things up in a way that makes bad people uncomfortable. 58 00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:03,760 Speaker 1: But okay, now the pope. Let's get into Clay. 59 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:05,800 Speaker 2: What are you like, you're a Methodist or something a 60 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 2: Southern Baptist? What are you Southern Baptist? So yeah, I 61 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 2: was not a pope officionado growing up. Didn't know a 62 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:16,560 Speaker 2: lot about the pope. But you'll remember a couple of 63 00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:18,920 Speaker 2: years ago and it was one of the most awesome 64 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:22,079 Speaker 2: trips of my life. I got to go I took 65 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:24,720 Speaker 2: my kids and we went to Rome, and we toured 66 00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:28,520 Speaker 2: the Vatican, and we got to experience what it is like, 67 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 2: the pomp, the circumstance, the majesty that surrounds everything having 68 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 2: to do with the Catholic Church. So I was not 69 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,960 Speaker 2: raising the Catholic Church, and don't have a ton of 70 00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 2: experience other than going to a few funerals, a few 71 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:48,040 Speaker 2: weddings that are in the Catholic faith. But I certainly appreciate. 72 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:53,120 Speaker 3: The impact and the power, like I said, of the Vatican, 73 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:57,000 Speaker 3: and know and follow as a news story the selection 74 00:03:57,240 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 3: of the new pope and find it to be very 75 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,080 Speaker 3: intriguing in the way that it takes place, with the 76 00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 3: white smoke and and the pope, papal enclaves and everything else, 77 00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:09,880 Speaker 3: conclaves and everything else that's associated with it. You are 78 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 3: the expert, however, on the selection of the next pope, 79 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:18,040 Speaker 3: as it pertains, that's vigenous. The expert of visions may 80 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:19,680 Speaker 3: not be a high standard, but the expert. 81 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:21,800 Speaker 2: I'm not gonna there's a lot of you listening who 82 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:24,280 Speaker 2: know a lot more about about this pope and about 83 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 2: the latest things going on within the church. Compart to me, 84 00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:30,279 Speaker 2: I did. I went to Jesuit school, and he was 85 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 2: a Jesuit of the Society of Jesus of that order 86 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 2: and the first one ever to become pope, which is interesting. 87 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:39,040 Speaker 2: As I said, he's Argentine or I never know if 88 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:43,000 Speaker 2: it's Argentine or Argentinian, but we'll just go with Argentinian. 89 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:48,680 Speaker 2: He's Argentinian by birth. The the the interesting things about 90 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:53,120 Speaker 2: about this pope, I mean, one is he on some 91 00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 2: things that matter very much. And I want to expand 92 00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:58,479 Speaker 2: this discussion out so it's not just about because for 93 00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:01,719 Speaker 2: a lot of people, if you're if you're a practicing Catholic, 94 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:04,600 Speaker 2: the Pope is obviously the head of the church, very important, 95 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:08,920 Speaker 2: the Vicar of Christ here on earth, Lord's Pontiff, all 96 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:13,839 Speaker 2: that stuff. But there's also bigger issues that he was 97 00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:16,039 Speaker 2: addressing that I think had a lot of impact. We 98 00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 2: have about a billion and a half Catholics around the world, 99 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:20,840 Speaker 2: so there's a lot of Catholics. I know many of 100 00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 2: you listening are of different Protestant than I'd say, what 101 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:26,359 Speaker 2: do you think, I would guess this is what I 102 00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:28,920 Speaker 2: was going to say before. I would think our audience 103 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,919 Speaker 2: is a little more Catholic than the nation overall. I 104 00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 2: would say it's probably more like thirty percent of our 105 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:37,360 Speaker 2: listeners are Catholic. I would guess twenty percent I think 106 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 2: is the national number. I would say we're probably more 107 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:43,800 Speaker 2: like thirty percent here. You know, I don't think we 108 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:48,080 Speaker 2: have quite as many like far left atheist types listening, 109 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:48,560 Speaker 2: So you know. 110 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:49,400 Speaker 1: You're going to have more. 111 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:51,719 Speaker 2: You're going to have more people who are Christian of 112 00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:55,640 Speaker 2: religious faith so than a much bigger denomina or much 113 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:59,239 Speaker 2: bigger chunk I think would be Protestant. But anyway, Clay, 114 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:01,240 Speaker 2: I mean, here's where it came down for a lot 115 00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:05,400 Speaker 2: of people. This is a pope who did not allow 116 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:10,720 Speaker 2: priests to marry, did not move on the issue of abortion, 117 00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 2: and still was ardently pro life, did not have any 118 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 2: policies particularly that advanced like the transagenda. So there were 119 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:23,400 Speaker 2: some areas where he was a traditionalist. The problem is 120 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:26,919 Speaker 2: he was a big climate change guy, and he was 121 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:31,240 Speaker 2: somebody who spoke a lot about about social justice but 122 00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:35,760 Speaker 2: also in the context of being effectively open borders, and 123 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:39,599 Speaker 2: I just I don't agree with that. Now, he wasn't 124 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:42,000 Speaker 2: speaking ex cathedra on those issues, which means it's not 125 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:46,560 Speaker 2: considered church doctrine. It's not from God through the pope 126 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 2: to his to his flock. But I didn't agree on 127 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:53,120 Speaker 2: those things. So there's some there's some stuff that I liked. 128 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:55,799 Speaker 2: And you know, there's a big move toward more traditional 129 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:59,080 Speaker 2: Christianity and traditional Catholicism more specifically in this country, Clay. 130 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 2: Right now, as people have realized a lot of the 131 00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:05,159 Speaker 2: secular left wing stuff is a bridge to nowhere. 132 00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:10,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think there is a increasing search for meaning, 133 00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:15,000 Speaker 3: and I think that certainly is translating with young men. 134 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:17,440 Speaker 3: I just finished the first draft of the book that 135 00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 3: I'm writing about why Trump was able to have such 136 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:24,480 Speaker 3: success with young men and why that has continued, and 137 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:27,840 Speaker 3: why the Republican Party is having such success with young men. 138 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 3: I think a lot of young men and increasingly young 139 00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 3: women too, are aware that they have been sold something 140 00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:39,760 Speaker 3: that is untrue. That is, and again, anytime we talk 141 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:43,600 Speaker 3: about this, people are because they don't have this particular lifestyle. 142 00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:45,120 Speaker 1: But I'll just say it. I mean, you just had 143 00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:45,520 Speaker 1: a baby. 144 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 3: The best possible formation for raising children is husband and wife, 145 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:58,360 Speaker 3: nuclear family, and one of those individuals is able to 146 00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:02,360 Speaker 3: be the primary caregiver. That is a reason that has 147 00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:07,320 Speaker 3: endured for thousands and thousands of years. That doesn't mean 148 00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:10,840 Speaker 3: that some of you out there can't both have fabulous jobs, 149 00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:14,400 Speaker 3: and there can't be daycare, and there can't be parents, 150 00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:17,679 Speaker 3: and I mean grandparents and aunts and uncles and brothers 151 00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 3: and sisters and all these other different individuals that are 152 00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:24,440 Speaker 3: involved in raising kids. It is incredibly important. I think 153 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:29,120 Speaker 3: a lot of what has been sold to women in particular, 154 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 3: and I'm fired up on this because I just finished 155 00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:34,080 Speaker 3: writing this section of my book, but to women in particular. 156 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:36,559 Speaker 3: If you went back in time Buck to the nineteen 157 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:41,680 Speaker 3: sixties and you told a single young man, hey, what's 158 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:45,280 Speaker 3: the world that you would most like to embody to 159 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:48,360 Speaker 3: find in the world, I think you would probably hear 160 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:53,200 Speaker 3: that single young man describe the lifestyle that exists now 161 00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:57,120 Speaker 3: for men. That is women's empowerment. And this is going 162 00:08:57,160 --> 00:08:59,480 Speaker 3: to get people riled up too, But to a large extent, 163 00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:04,680 Speaker 3: women's empowerment I think has actually given men everything they wanted. 164 00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:09,040 Speaker 3: And think about it for a minute. Now, for young men, 165 00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:13,280 Speaker 3: you have never had to work less in order to 166 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:17,199 Speaker 3: have access to tons of pretty girls. You don't even 167 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:19,160 Speaker 3: have to take them out on dates. Now you can 168 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:23,720 Speaker 3: send twenty different text messages of you up and this 169 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:26,280 Speaker 3: is the reality of the world that exists now. If 170 00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:30,720 Speaker 3: you're sixteen to thirty five and you're single out there 171 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:33,640 Speaker 3: and Buck, you just went through it. Now you're married. 172 00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:36,360 Speaker 3: But I think a lot of women and men are 173 00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:39,680 Speaker 3: not coming together. They're not getting married, they're not having children, 174 00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 3: and we are learning that trying to make women more 175 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:47,800 Speaker 3: like men and men more like women actually means that 176 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:51,280 Speaker 3: everybody doesn't like each other as much as they otherwise would. 177 00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:53,959 Speaker 3: They like the sexest to be different, and this idea 178 00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:56,959 Speaker 3: that you can be any gender, or babies, sometimes doctors 179 00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,960 Speaker 3: get babies wrong. I think you're seeing a profound repea 180 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 3: udiation of this era, and I wonder the reflection of 181 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:06,800 Speaker 3: who they are going to select as the next pope. 182 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:10,720 Speaker 3: It's fine to be in some way welcoming of difference, 183 00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:12,720 Speaker 3: but at some point in time you do need to 184 00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:16,440 Speaker 3: recognize that there is traditional value in the decisions that 185 00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 3: have been made for thousands of years. And I see 186 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:21,400 Speaker 3: that all kind of coming together in terms of the 187 00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:23,320 Speaker 3: decision they make as to who the next pope is. 188 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 2: I think one thing that is true, irrespective of time 189 00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:33,520 Speaker 2: or culture or anything else, is that for human happiness 190 00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:36,160 Speaker 2: to flourish. You actually need to care about something more 191 00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:39,880 Speaker 2: than you care about yourself. That a focus on the 192 00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:46,880 Speaker 2: self and the deep and really malignant narcissism that is 193 00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:51,600 Speaker 2: I think really a defining characteristic of culture for young 194 00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 2: people today. Maybe it has been for a longer time 195 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:57,800 Speaker 2: than that, but the self obsession with what I want, 196 00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:01,199 Speaker 2: what I need, when I want it is is just 197 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 2: a pathway to one happiness I think in the long 198 00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:06,840 Speaker 2: run and maybe even in the short run. And I 199 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 2: think that when people look to things like family and 200 00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:14,600 Speaker 2: faith and and what really matters and causes beyond themselves, 201 00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:18,520 Speaker 2: that they can actually impact or effect, which is a 202 00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:20,600 Speaker 2: very important This is where you know this is Pope 203 00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:23,400 Speaker 2: is very into social justice. I think social justice for 204 00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:25,800 Speaker 2: a lot of people, and the cause is including things 205 00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:29,200 Speaker 2: like climate change that go under that clay. Is often 206 00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:35,439 Speaker 2: an easy way out for people because saying that you 207 00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:37,520 Speaker 2: you know, you want equal pay, or saying that you 208 00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:40,960 Speaker 2: stand for climate change or Ukraine or the or you know, 209 00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:45,079 Speaker 2: Fouchi or whatever it is, whatever your new quasi religion 210 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 2: is of the moment, that's easy and can make people 211 00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 2: in the short term feel good about themselves, but it's 212 00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:52,880 Speaker 2: empty because it requires no discipline and no effort, and 213 00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:57,360 Speaker 2: there's nothing that you're really doing, whereas helping somebody in 214 00:11:57,400 --> 00:11:59,840 Speaker 2: your family or helping somebody in your community who really 215 00:11:59,880 --> 00:12:04,160 Speaker 2: is in a desperate situation, taking action that sacrifices your 216 00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:08,079 Speaker 2: own immediate comforts and interest for other people, and doing 217 00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:12,240 Speaker 2: that on a daily basis, tending to your own flock 218 00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:16,199 Speaker 2: those around you. That I think is a far more 219 00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:21,199 Speaker 2: tried and true way to achieve purpose, which is really 220 00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 2: what our modern culture, because we live lives generally play, 221 00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 2: have so much convenience. 222 00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:27,600 Speaker 1: Every food is. 223 00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 2: Delicious, entertainment is everywhere. You know, sex has been cheapened 224 00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:34,200 Speaker 2: and easy for most people to get, or you know, 225 00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:36,520 Speaker 2: or they just do only fans or what all this stuff, 226 00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:40,120 Speaker 2: all the you know, endorphin and serotonin rush that people 227 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:43,520 Speaker 2: are constantly chasing. I think what they really want is purpose, 228 00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 2: And whether you're twenty or eighty, I think purpose is 229 00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:53,240 Speaker 2: the thing that leads to more lasting, real happiness in 230 00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:56,079 Speaker 2: a deep philosophical sense. And I think that that's the 231 00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:58,440 Speaker 2: role of the Catholic Church place for bringing it in 232 00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 2: a full circle for a lot of people. The relationship 233 00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:04,080 Speaker 2: with God, those who believe in Christ and his Resurrection. 234 00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:06,120 Speaker 2: We just had Easter. Happy Easter to all of you 235 00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:10,840 Speaker 2: who celebrate. I think that this is a moment for 236 00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:13,400 Speaker 2: people who even if you're not a Catholic, even if 237 00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:15,800 Speaker 2: you're not a Christian, there can be reflection on this, 238 00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:19,840 Speaker 2: but certainly for Catholics and Christians, what are we all 239 00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:23,000 Speaker 2: doing to live the faith that we profess and to 240 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:26,240 Speaker 2: actually take what we know about a good life and 241 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:28,560 Speaker 2: put it into action. Because we live in a social 242 00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:32,480 Speaker 2: media hashtag and don't use hashtags anymore, but you know, 243 00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:33,480 Speaker 2: we live in. 244 00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:37,880 Speaker 1: A selfie, uber, eats Netflix. 245 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:40,520 Speaker 2: Quick, fast and easy culture, and I think that's a 246 00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:42,600 Speaker 2: big park clay of what leads to so much unhappiness. 247 00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:46,560 Speaker 3: I also think to your point, if people don't have 248 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:50,240 Speaker 3: a larger purpose, they will find it, and sometimes they 249 00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:54,240 Speaker 3: find it in politics, which I think has happened on 250 00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:58,680 Speaker 3: the left in particular, a lot of these in my opinion, 251 00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:03,040 Speaker 3: women who would wise have been raising families have decided 252 00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:06,000 Speaker 3: that the Democrat Party is the family they don't otherwise have. 253 00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:10,720 Speaker 3: And I think there's a profound sadness there, honestly, that 254 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:14,120 Speaker 3: that is where you would choose to find your sense 255 00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:17,720 Speaker 3: of purpose is entirely in the political realm and entirely 256 00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:21,280 Speaker 3: with one political party, but deep thoughts to start off 257 00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:23,960 Speaker 3: a Monday morning, as we are coming out of the 258 00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:26,600 Speaker 3: Easter holiday, and as the Pope, who I think it's 259 00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:29,600 Speaker 3: kind of fair to say shockingly has passed because he 260 00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:32,840 Speaker 3: was just public yesterday and there seemed to be some 261 00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:35,920 Speaker 3: idea that he had come through the worst of his 262 00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:38,720 Speaker 3: health related conditions when it seemed like he might pass, 263 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:43,080 Speaker 3: and then he's public yesterday and then overnight he passed. 264 00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:45,680 Speaker 3: Still a tense time for those living in Israel. We're 265 00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:48,920 Speaker 3: just talking about coming out of Easter in the Holy Week, 266 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:51,960 Speaker 3: eighteen months after the mos terrorist attack. The threat of 267 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:54,880 Speaker 3: another missile attack by one of the big enemies over there, 268 00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:59,280 Speaker 3: Hesbelahamas or the Huties is still very real. For every 269 00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:01,680 Speaker 3: effort there is to lead a normal life, there's a 270 00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:04,960 Speaker 3: reminder missile attacks can occur at any given moment. That's 271 00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:07,960 Speaker 3: why we're partnering with the International Fellowship of Christians and 272 00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:12,160 Speaker 3: Jews to help provide life citing aid and security essentials. 273 00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:16,640 Speaker 3: Your urgently needed gift today will help provide security essentials 274 00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:19,880 Speaker 3: like bomb shelters, flack jackets, bulletproof vest.

One is the loss of Pope 289 00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:11,960 Speaker 2: of Francis, who we discussed and by the way, we'll 290 00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 2: take some of your calls and talkbacks on this at 291 00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:16,600 Speaker 2: the back of this hour, So if you want to 292 00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:18,200 Speaker 2: talk about the Pope at all, what he meant to you, 293 00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:21,320 Speaker 2: or if you disagree. As a Catholic, I know he 294 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:23,880 Speaker 2: was very anti the Latin Mass. I would actually as 295 00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:26,800 Speaker 2: a I'm coming back to it. I will tell you 296 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:29,280 Speaker 2: I always want to be very honest with his audience. 297 00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:32,480 Speaker 2: You know, I was raised quite Catholic in terms of 298 00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:37,520 Speaker 2: the practice, right, going everything, all the sacraments, Jesuit school. 299 00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:40,360 Speaker 2: I went to Catholic school and then Jesuit High School, 300 00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:42,760 Speaker 2: and then I went to Amherst, which was Communists, which 301 00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:44,440 Speaker 2: actually made me more. I was one of the few 302 00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:47,880 Speaker 2: people I remember seeing Justice Scalia's daughter. There was like 303 00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:50,600 Speaker 2: an on campus church service. There are very few of us. 304 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:52,880 Speaker 2: I'm like, huh, like she's here, you know, she's cool. 305 00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:55,040 Speaker 2: There are very few of us, though, who would go 306 00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:57,880 Speaker 2: to church on campus. I was one of them. And 307 00:16:58,120 --> 00:16:59,640 Speaker 2: I want to get back to it now that I'm 308 00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:03,000 Speaker 2: a father and I think more about the future of 309 00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:06,119 Speaker 2: my family and also you know, the future like eternity 310 00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:09,480 Speaker 2: and everlasting life all that. So I'm trying to get 311 00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:11,840 Speaker 2: back to it. I'll be honest with you. I'm somebody 312 00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:14,840 Speaker 2: who has You know, my mother is very devout and 313 00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:16,600 Speaker 2: so she's probably listening. 314 00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:17,040 Speaker 1: Mom. 315 00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:18,800 Speaker 2: I'm working on it. I'm working on it. I bring 316 00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:22,399 Speaker 2: this up, Clay, just because I do think I have 317 00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:24,800 Speaker 2: feelings on I still have feelings on all this, right. 318 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:26,440 Speaker 1: I don't claim to be an expert, but I have 319 00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:27,200 Speaker 1: feelings on it all. 320 00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:30,640 Speaker 2: I think the Latin Mass would be really really meaningful 321 00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:32,480 Speaker 2: to a lot of people. I think that the traditions 322 00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:35,639 Speaker 2: of the church are in so many ways the strength 323 00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:40,040 Speaker 2: of the church and the anyway, that's my feeling. I 324 00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:43,119 Speaker 2: think liberalizing it no, no, no, actually not a good idea. 325 00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:44,920 Speaker 2: I think some of the liberal stuff that's gone on 326 00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:47,480 Speaker 2: with the church has been a bad idea. That all said, 327 00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:50,080 Speaker 2: that's one loss. The loss of Pope Francis the other 328 00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:52,879 Speaker 2: loss that the media is giving a lot of attention to. 329 00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:54,720 Speaker 2: Not quite as much as the Pope today because that 330 00:17:54,840 --> 00:18:02,440 Speaker 2: just happened, but Clay the loss from America of Abrego Garcia, Yes, 331 00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:07,680 Speaker 2: a very different Latin American fellow than Pope Francis, and 332 00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:11,720 Speaker 2: he is somebody that they have really decided to make 333 00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:15,800 Speaker 2: the symbol of Trump resistance right now very interesting to be. 334 00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:17,199 Speaker 1: They haven't gone all in. 335 00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:22,920 Speaker 2: I mean, the institutional Democrat apparatus is not all in 336 00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:26,679 Speaker 2: on Carmelo Anthony and the stabbing case and all this 337 00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:31,520 Speaker 2: they've that's online, you'll see that, and there's some activists, 338 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:35,840 Speaker 2: local activists, But I think the mainstream Democrat party realizes 339 00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:37,520 Speaker 2: that this is not going to go well for them. 340 00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:40,520 Speaker 2: If they really get too into this, I think maybe 341 00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:43,760 Speaker 2: I'm wrong. They could turn it into another OJ you know, 342 00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:47,720 Speaker 2: celebrated case. We'll talk about that, but they've really gone 343 00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:51,280 Speaker 2: all in on Abrego Garcia. And here is Senator Van 344 00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:54,959 Speaker 2: Holland Clay from Maryland talking about this meeting with this 345 00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:56,000 Speaker 2: guy play fifteen. 346 00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:58,959 Speaker 5: He said he was not afraid of the other prisoners 347 00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:03,920 Speaker 5: in his immediate sell, but that he was traumatized by 348 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:08,760 Speaker 5: being at Seacott and fearful of many of the prisoners 349 00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:12,760 Speaker 5: in other cell blocks who called out to him and 350 00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:18,080 Speaker 5: taunted him in various ways. His conversation with me was 351 00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:22,840 Speaker 5: the first communication he'd had with anybody outside a prison 352 00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:26,680 Speaker 5: since he was abducted. He said he felt very sad 353 00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:30,720 Speaker 5: about being in a prison because he had not committed 354 00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:32,520 Speaker 5: any crimes. 355 00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:36,159 Speaker 2: Clay, you know, people pointed out, oh, I know, I know, 356 00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:40,200 Speaker 2: he's like a lost puppy. People have pointed out he 357 00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:42,280 Speaker 2: didn't even ask apparently, or wouldn't give an answer. Is 358 00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:43,280 Speaker 2: he a member of MS thirteen? 359 00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:43,479 Speaker 1: Yes? 360 00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:43,760 Speaker 6: Or no? 361 00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:45,639 Speaker 1: Is he a part of this? 362 00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:49,639 Speaker 3: Did he beat his wife? She said he did. I 363 00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:52,280 Speaker 3: mean that seems kind of significant to me too. I 364 00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:54,720 Speaker 3: think we played the team can remind me if we 365 00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:56,320 Speaker 3: played it or not. I know I shared it on 366 00:19:56,440 --> 00:20:01,520 Speaker 3: social When you get grilled by Michael Straighthan on Good 367 00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:04,199 Speaker 3: Morning America and you can't answer a basic question of 368 00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:09,280 Speaker 3: whether she was fearful of him, this is so let's 369 00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:12,440 Speaker 3: talk about that Garcia. We said told you months ago, 370 00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:14,280 Speaker 3: this was what their focus is going to be. They 371 00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 3: were going to find one person who was deported. They 372 00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:19,480 Speaker 3: were going to decide to make him the front facing 373 00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:24,320 Speaker 3: example of how unfair deportations were. But I do think 374 00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:28,119 Speaker 3: and they picked a poor example, right, an alleged wife beater. 375 00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:31,560 Speaker 3: As someone who was accused of human smuggling pulled over 376 00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:34,400 Speaker 3: in Tennessee. The Biden FBI said, hey, let him go. 377 00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:39,119 Speaker 3: Someone who has what appears to be MS thirteen gang 378 00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:42,960 Speaker 3: signed on his knuckles. If you looked at the picture 379 00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:46,600 Speaker 3: that that Donald Trump shared, the location of his arrest, 380 00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:48,960 Speaker 3: the people that he was consorting with at the time 381 00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:51,679 Speaker 3: of the arrest, all these things make him not a 382 00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:54,280 Speaker 3: particularly the fact that he's here illegally and no one 383 00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:57,440 Speaker 3: disputes it. All these things make him not a particularly 384 00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:02,000 Speaker 3: sympathetic plain effect of, we would say, or forward facing 385 00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:05,800 Speaker 3: client in this respect, but here is what's really going on. 386 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:10,480 Speaker 3: What we're really seeing is Biden let in around ten 387 00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:14,160 Speaker 3: million illegals in four years. And we've had conversations about this, Buck. 388 00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 3: I remember during the election saying I thought that Trump 389 00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:19,919 Speaker 3: could shut down the southern border. The challenge was going 390 00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:23,520 Speaker 3: to be deporting massive amounts of illegals. And I was 391 00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:27,119 Speaker 3: talking with some people over the weekend and on a 392 00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:30,119 Speaker 3: pace right now, Trump is going to be able to 393 00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:34,080 Speaker 3: deport about three hundred and fifty thousand people. Okay, that 394 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:41,320 Speaker 3: means that it would take around thirty years of doing 395 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:45,040 Speaker 3: this same pace to just deport the people that Biden 396 00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:48,680 Speaker 3: let in in the last four years. If you open 397 00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:52,600 Speaker 3: the floodgates and allow everybody in and you don't have 398 00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:56,639 Speaker 3: a mechanism by which the president can then deport massive 399 00:21:56,680 --> 00:22:00,680 Speaker 3: amounts of people as well, then effectively the Democrats win. 400 00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:05,160 Speaker 3: And that is I think what their calculus was all on, Buck. 401 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:07,600 Speaker 3: I think they made the choice. Once we let these 402 00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:11,040 Speaker 3: people in, given the laws and given the roadblocks we 403 00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:14,080 Speaker 3: can put up to any deportation process, it's going to 404 00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:18,200 Speaker 3: become virtually impossible to ever get these people out. And 405 00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:23,200 Speaker 3: this presumes that we even have a president who wants 406 00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:26,440 Speaker 3: to shut down the southern border, because the lesson here 407 00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:29,879 Speaker 3: is if they win in twenty twenty eight, they'll probably 408 00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 3: wide open the southern border again and we'll have millions 409 00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:35,160 Speaker 3: more people coming in. I was reading this morning their 410 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:38,160 Speaker 3: interviews with people who have decided not to come into 411 00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:40,119 Speaker 3: the United States where they said, hey, we just have 412 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:43,040 Speaker 3: to wait for another Democrat president to be able to 413 00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:45,959 Speaker 3: do this again. And you'll remember, as soon as Biden 414 00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:49,680 Speaker 3: was elected, those caravans started in massive numbers. So what 415 00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:51,040 Speaker 3: Trump is trying to do? 416 00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:52,000 Speaker 1: Wait caravans. 417 00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 2: They were literally showing up with Biden keyth Biden T shirts. Yes, 418 00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:58,080 Speaker 2: and they're asked by reporters, hey, why are you here 419 00:22:58,320 --> 00:22:59,119 Speaker 2: because of Biden? 420 00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:02,080 Speaker 3: They were telling us yes, because Biden wants us to come. 421 00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:04,240 Speaker 3: Was even some of the answers because that was the 422 00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:07,280 Speaker 3: way it was being told. So my point on this 423 00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:11,840 Speaker 3: is we're having a now legal battle over whether Trump 424 00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:18,560 Speaker 3: can expansively define illegal immigration and use that under hundreds 425 00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:21,680 Speaker 3: of year old laws to be able to deport people rapidly. 426 00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:25,600 Speaker 3: We need Congress to act in this respect to make 427 00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:28,760 Speaker 3: it easier for people to be deported. The challenge is, 428 00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:34,199 Speaker 3: I suspect that Democrats would in many respects throw up 429 00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:37,600 Speaker 3: the filibuster, which remember they claimed was racist and antiquated 430 00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:40,479 Speaker 3: and didn't need to exist anymore. Now suddenly they're going 431 00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:43,880 Speaker 3: to use it abundantly against Trump in the Senate because 432 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:47,360 Speaker 3: they only have forty seven seats. And so the Supreme 433 00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:51,880 Speaker 3: Court over the weekend to me, stepped in and issued 434 00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:55,920 Speaker 3: a stop order on the deportation of these violent criminals. 435 00:23:56,240 --> 00:24:00,800 Speaker 3: And I think they did it in a mechanism that 436 00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:04,879 Speaker 3: suggests that they may well restrict Trump's ability to be 437 00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:08,280 Speaker 3: able to rapidly deport people, which means these millions of 438 00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:11,000 Speaker 3: illegals are essentially here to stay. 439 00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:17,600 Speaker 2: We just come back to this philosophical this philosophical reckoning 440 00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:20,560 Speaker 2: that I think a lot of Americans have had. You 441 00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:23,360 Speaker 2: cannot look at us and say the rule of law, 442 00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:28,680 Speaker 2: the constitution, due process only matters to prevent people from 443 00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:32,679 Speaker 2: being told to leave. Does not matter despite all of 444 00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:36,520 Speaker 2: the laws when it comes to they are arriving and 445 00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:40,320 Speaker 2: they are staying in violation of laws. Right, this can't 446 00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:42,640 Speaker 2: be a one way street situation, or else we don't 447 00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:45,919 Speaker 2: really have a country anymore. And I think that this 448 00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:48,760 Speaker 2: is also where this should be thought of this is 449 00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:52,080 Speaker 2: an emergency. The number of illegals who have come into 450 00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:54,320 Speaker 2: the country, and particularly those who have come in under Biden. 451 00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:59,560 Speaker 2: This is a national emergency because we have seen the 452 00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:03,080 Speaker 2: serial violations of our sovereignty to such a degree that 453 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:05,040 Speaker 2: it has eroded faith in. 454 00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:06,160 Speaker 1: The rule of law. 455 00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:10,920 Speaker 2: This is an enormous burden on the taxpayer, an enormous 456 00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:14,800 Speaker 2: burden on our social and political fabric. I mean, do 457 00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:18,159 Speaker 2: they speak English? Are they American? What makes them Americans? 458 00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:20,680 Speaker 2: Some of them have been here for a year or two. Well, 459 00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:23,960 Speaker 2: some people study abroad. If I study abroad in Australia, 460 00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:26,119 Speaker 2: am I in Ausie all of a sudden? By the way, 461 00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:27,959 Speaker 2: at least there I would speak the language. What if 462 00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:31,200 Speaker 2: I studied abroad in Tokyo and said, you know what, guys, 463 00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:33,200 Speaker 2: I'm as Japanese as all. 464 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:35,080 Speaker 1: Of you, I'd be laughed at. Yes. 465 00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:38,720 Speaker 2: But yet in this country, the Democrat Party has decided 466 00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:42,159 Speaker 2: that America is an idea. Now America is actually people. 467 00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:45,119 Speaker 2: It is three hundred and forty million people who are 468 00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:47,640 Speaker 2: supposed to be here who live in a place known 469 00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:48,280 Speaker 2: as America. 470 00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:51,280 Speaker 1: But it is actually us. It's not just a land mass. 471 00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:54,600 Speaker 2: This is not just a real estate transaction that we're discussing, 472 00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:58,280 Speaker 2: and Clay, I think that's where the reckoning comes from. 473 00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:00,320 Speaker 2: That's where people are just saying, hold on, honestly. Second, 474 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:04,840 Speaker 2: so are we supposed to have multiple tiers, multiple levels 475 00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:09,639 Speaker 2: of review and jury trial and more review for every 476 00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:13,040 Speaker 2: person who's come here illegally the whole system. They've overwhelmed 477 00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:15,920 Speaker 2: the system. They have flooded the system intentionally. And now 478 00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:18,360 Speaker 2: you're going to say, well, the system requires extra Why 479 00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:20,640 Speaker 2: I know the system requires This is an emergency. People 480 00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:23,280 Speaker 2: have to be told to go home and made to 481 00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:26,320 Speaker 2: go home. This is not their home, and that is 482 00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:30,200 Speaker 2: what the real battle is. The Garcia Fellow is the 483 00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:34,200 Speaker 2: front facing aspect of this, but make no mistake, they 484 00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:38,200 Speaker 2: are desperately trying to stop Trump from sending out people 485 00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:39,400 Speaker 2: who were illegally here. 486 00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:42,080 Speaker 3: And there's lots of numbers floating around. We should probably 487 00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:44,840 Speaker 3: get Stephen Miller on again because he's the expert on 488 00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:46,679 Speaker 3: this to be able to just give us the facts. 489 00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:49,080 Speaker 3: But you'll see a lot of things on social media 490 00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:51,680 Speaker 3: about how many people were deported and deporters in chief 491 00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:54,679 Speaker 3: a lot of times buck they were counting I was 492 00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:58,200 Speaker 3: diving into this, they were counting people who were turned 493 00:26:58,200 --> 00:26:59,720 Speaker 3: away at the border. 494 00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:02,240 Speaker 1: As b as deportations. Yes, I know they didn't. 495 00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:05,520 Speaker 2: They started that under Obama to create the impression that 496 00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:08,160 Speaker 2: he was the deporter in chief, so that he would 497 00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:11,040 Speaker 2: have more political capital to try to swindle Republicans with 498 00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:14,159 Speaker 2: the Gang of Eight bill, Remember the Senate Gang of 499 00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:17,480 Speaker 2: eight into an amnesty. It was oh, look Obama's serious 500 00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:19,640 Speaker 2: about border security. Look at the numbers. The numbers were 501 00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:21,480 Speaker 2: all fudged. The numbers were fake. 502 00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:22,280 Speaker 1: It was a joke. 503 00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:25,400 Speaker 3: In other words, it's important for you guys to think 504 00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:29,600 Speaker 3: about the difference between people here that are taken internally 505 00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:33,400 Speaker 3: and flown out and people who are stopped at the border. 506 00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:36,800 Speaker 3: Many of those numbers out there, they're counting people stopped 507 00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:39,600 Speaker 3: at the border as being deported, which is not really 508 00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:40,200 Speaker 3: the same thing. 509 00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:43,720 Speaker 2: It's not it's really a turnarway. And beyond that, clay 510 00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:46,240 Speaker 2: a lot of the people who are stopped at the 511 00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:48,760 Speaker 2: border and deported, you know what happens. They just go 512 00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:51,360 Speaker 2: west or they go east and they cross again. Right, 513 00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:54,960 Speaker 2: So people think, oh, problem solved. Look at all these 514 00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:57,359 Speaker 2: not problems solved. The problem getting better looking at these numbers. No, 515 00:27:57,400 --> 00:27:59,520 Speaker 2: they just if you're turned right back around. A lot 516 00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:02,200 Speaker 2: of these people have paid the paid the cartel coyotes, 517 00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:05,240 Speaker 2: they've done the human trafficking. You know, they've been a 518 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:08,320 Speaker 2: part of that human trafficking pipeline. And they're just gonna 519 00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:10,680 Speaker 2: find another place to try to cross, and the next 520 00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:11,920 Speaker 2: time they'll probably get through. 521 00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:14,680 Speaker 3: Here's a question for you.

All of that coming up here, 560 00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:17,240 Speaker 2: But first is to deal with this. There's a story 561 00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:21,479 Speaker 2: out there NPR reporting that there is already a process 562 00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:26,360 Speaker 2: underway to replace Pete hex as Secretary of Defense. I'm 563 00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:28,520 Speaker 2: not buying it. I don't believe it. I don't think 564 00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:31,280 Speaker 2: that's happening. Could be wrong, but I don't. 565 00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:32,480 Speaker 1: I would. 566 00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:37,120 Speaker 2: I would place a considerable wager that Pete's going to 567 00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:39,400 Speaker 2: be just fine with this, especially based on what these 568 00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:43,880 Speaker 2: the the transgressions. 569 00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:44,960 Speaker 1: That are listed in these reports. 570 00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:49,120 Speaker 2: But I will say this, Clay, there there should be 571 00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:51,520 Speaker 2: a recognition I think there is with this White House 572 00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:56,000 Speaker 2: that if you give the media what they want on anything, 573 00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:59,960 Speaker 2: and they clearly really want this they've you've pointed out. 574 00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:02,200 Speaker 2: I'll give you full credit for this observation. I agree 575 00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:06,480 Speaker 2: with it that because I thought RFK Junior would get 576 00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:10,840 Speaker 2: far more because remember it's not just that he you 577 00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:14,800 Speaker 2: know that he's a guy who goes against the system 578 00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:16,800 Speaker 2: and Fouci and all this stuff, but he's also an 579 00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:19,920 Speaker 2: apostate from the Democrat Party, right, He's a He's a 580 00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:25,680 Speaker 2: refugee from liberalism at least on some issues, at least 581 00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:29,160 Speaker 2: as it pertains to health. He's not part of their system. 582 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:34,400 Speaker 2: They have focused eighty percent of their cabinet ire on 583 00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:35,680 Speaker 2: Pete hag Seth All along. 584 00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:38,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, and by the way, it's not just RFK Junior. 585 00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:41,200 Speaker 3: Tulsea Gabbert did the same thing. I mean, she ran 586 00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:45,120 Speaker 3: for president as a Democrat in twenty twenty. Both of 587 00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:48,520 Speaker 3: them got confirmed. And I would say, you know, we're 588 00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:51,160 Speaker 3: coming up on one hundred days of the Trump presidency. 589 00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:54,040 Speaker 3: Compared to the amount of attacks that have come down 590 00:31:54,080 --> 00:32:00,320 Speaker 3: on Pete Hegseeth, it's it's pretty extraordinary how much the 591 00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:04,320 Speaker 3: fire has been focused on him. And I think one 592 00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:08,120 Speaker 3: of the reasons is because he wasn't in the cool 593 00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:12,200 Speaker 3: kids club in any way, because he was not a 594 00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:17,760 Speaker 3: long time Pentagon official. He didn't work his way up 595 00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:20,000 Speaker 3: that way. And I think there have been a lot 596 00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:24,200 Speaker 3: of people that were unhappy that Trump picked a proverbial outsider, 597 00:32:24,760 --> 00:32:28,040 Speaker 3: and they really lined up against him in a way 598 00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:32,160 Speaker 3: that frankly wasn't reflected in any other cabinet member. I mean, 599 00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:34,800 Speaker 3: he only got in because JD. Vans broke the tie 600 00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:38,440 Speaker 3: fifty to fifty. There were three Republicans who decided to 601 00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:41,280 Speaker 3: vote against him, and nearly it came down to North 602 00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:43,600 Speaker 3: Carolina senator whether or not he was going to get 603 00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:48,240 Speaker 3: confirmed or not. And they haven't really relented on him since. 604 00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:51,560 Speaker 3: Every story that has been written about him in The 605 00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:55,840 Speaker 3: New York Times, The Washington Post, CNN, the usual suspects, 606 00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:59,720 Speaker 3: they've all been negative. Now one single positive story's been written. 607 00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:03,200 Speaker 3: I'll get you one that's actually hugely positive. The amount 608 00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:05,400 Speaker 3: of people that want to serve in our armed forces 609 00:33:05,440 --> 00:33:09,800 Speaker 3: since Pete Hegseth became Defense Secretary has skyrocketed. They may 610 00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:12,000 Speaker 3: not like the fact that he's out working out with 611 00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:16,200 Speaker 3: guys all over the world that are in our armed forces, 612 00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:21,360 Speaker 3: but I think having a youthful Defense secretary actually connects 613 00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:24,320 Speaker 3: with a lot of eighteen to twenty four year old. 614 00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:25,200 Speaker 1: Dudes out there. 615 00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:28,920 Speaker 3: I think saying hey, we're going to hire people and 616 00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:31,800 Speaker 3: we want you to kick the bad guys ass, I 617 00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:34,840 Speaker 3: think that's a lot more appealing than find your gender 618 00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:37,720 Speaker 3: identity in the Marines, right. I mean, I think most 619 00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:40,720 Speaker 3: of the young guys and gals that they are hiring them, 620 00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:43,240 Speaker 3: want to serve our country, want to kick ass. 621 00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:44,480 Speaker 1: That's what their goal is. 622 00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:46,960 Speaker 2: And as is so often the case when it comes 623 00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:52,480 Speaker 2: to opposition to the Trump administration, play success for Secretary 624 00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:56,720 Speaker 2: of Defense Hegseth. While good for the country, democrats view 625 00:33:56,760 --> 00:33:59,680 Speaker 2: it as bad for them. And so if he were 626 00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:02,280 Speaker 2: able to continue on this pathway to your point about 627 00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:06,440 Speaker 2: making the military much more like the perception that the 628 00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:08,920 Speaker 2: military was putting out. Do you remember remember some of 629 00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:11,960 Speaker 2: the commercials, yes for the Marines when you were growing up, 630 00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:13,440 Speaker 2: and I remember seeing this and that, you know, they 631 00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:16,239 Speaker 2: had the they had the marine dress dress uniform on 632 00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:18,520 Speaker 2: and the sword, and you're like, this is badass. I 633 00:34:18,520 --> 00:34:20,440 Speaker 2: think I might want to be a marine, right, some 634 00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:22,800 Speaker 2: of the army ads that you would see. 635 00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:25,520 Speaker 3: I wanted to be a fighter pilot after Top Gun 636 00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:27,440 Speaker 3: Buck they leaned in. I think they've done a good 637 00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:29,520 Speaker 3: job with Top Gun Maverick. But when I was five 638 00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:32,839 Speaker 3: or six and Top Gun the original came out, how 639 00:34:32,840 --> 00:34:35,040 Speaker 3: could you watch that movie as a kid and not 640 00:34:35,120 --> 00:34:36,720 Speaker 3: want to be a jet fighter pilot? 641 00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:39,120 Speaker 2: Well, you definitely have the humility to be a fighter pilot. 642 00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:41,480 Speaker 2: Where you go, that's right, that's right. You know, you 643 00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:43,080 Speaker 2: know how you know who a fighter pilot is right 644 00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:47,560 Speaker 2: when he walks in the room, he'll tell you.

The person who goes by the way, 677 00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:17,120 Speaker 2: I don't want a surgeon who's like, I think I'm 678 00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:20,360 Speaker 2: pretty good. You know, sometimes I get the wrong ventricle 679 00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:23,360 Speaker 2: crossed up on the hearts. No, I want somebody who's like, 680 00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:25,560 Speaker 2: I am God's gift to surgery. 681 00:36:25,680 --> 00:36:27,759 Speaker 1: Yes, I got your brother, don't worry. That's what I 682 00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:28,239 Speaker 1: want to kid. 683 00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:33,680 Speaker 2: But I see this from content on like TikTok and Instagram. 684 00:36:33,760 --> 00:36:39,520 Speaker 2: There's these these different characteristics of medical specialties, and you know, 685 00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:43,320 Speaker 2: cardiac and brain surgeons in particular, just like Hi, I'm God, 686 00:36:43,719 --> 00:36:44,440 Speaker 2: nice to meet you. 687 00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:44,879 Speaker 1: That's whatever. 688 00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:46,479 Speaker 3: And you know what a lot of those guys also 689 00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:49,120 Speaker 3: learn how to be pilots because I think they have 690 00:36:49,320 --> 00:36:53,560 Speaker 3: like that idea that they are uniquely skilled and it 691 00:36:53,640 --> 00:36:56,680 Speaker 3: probably is the same mindset that translates to flying a 692 00:36:56,680 --> 00:36:59,560 Speaker 3: plane that operating on a heart would would require. 693 00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:00,800 Speaker 1: I think many respects. 694 00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:03,640 Speaker 2: Yes, well, our friend Pete Hegseth also does not lack 695 00:37:03,719 --> 00:37:06,480 Speaker 2: for confidence, and he is the Secretary of Defense right 696 00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:11,000 Speaker 2: now and he has according to Caroline Levitt, this has 697 00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:15,319 Speaker 2: cut one fully standing behind Pete Hegseth at this point. 698 00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:16,480 Speaker 1: Just play this for everybody. 699 00:37:16,719 --> 00:37:19,879 Speaker 7: The President stands strongly behind Secretary Hegseth, who is doing 700 00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:22,160 Speaker 7: a phenomenal job leading the Pentagon. 701 00:37:22,239 --> 00:37:24,360 Speaker 1: And this is what happens when the. 702 00:37:24,360 --> 00:37:27,360 Speaker 7: Entire Pentagon is working against you and working against the 703 00:37:27,400 --> 00:37:31,200 Speaker 7: monumental change that you are trying to implement. Secretary Heigswifth 704 00:37:31,400 --> 00:37:34,480 Speaker 7: Hegseth was nominated for this position because he is standing 705 00:37:34,560 --> 00:37:36,840 Speaker 7: up for the war fighter, the men and women in 706 00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:39,480 Speaker 7: uniform who are putting their lives on the line to 707 00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:43,719 Speaker 7: protect our country and our homeland. And unfortunately, there have 708 00:37:43,840 --> 00:37:47,040 Speaker 7: been people at that building who don't like the change 709 00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:49,400 Speaker 7: the Secretary is trying to bring. So they are leaking 710 00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:51,839 Speaker 7: and they are lying to the mainstream media. We've seen 711 00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:55,120 Speaker 7: this game played before. The secretary is doing a tremendous 712 00:37:55,160 --> 00:37:57,880 Speaker 7: job and the president stands strongly behind him. 713 00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:04,120 Speaker 2: I don't see that swerving, changing walk back. I don't 714 00:38:04,120 --> 00:38:06,200 Speaker 2: think they're gonna put Caroline out there. First of all, 715 00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:08,000 Speaker 2: she's probably talked to Trump about this just a few 716 00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:11,279 Speaker 2: minutes before making that statement, And look at it. It is 717 00:38:11,320 --> 00:38:13,680 Speaker 2: the pleasure of the president, right, So you're you gotta 718 00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:15,120 Speaker 2: be in the mind of the man to know. But 719 00:38:15,719 --> 00:38:18,080 Speaker 2: we know Trump pretty well and I don't think he 720 00:38:18,160 --> 00:38:21,040 Speaker 2: sees anything here that requires The only thing that would 721 00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:26,120 Speaker 2: get Pete canned would be disloyalty to the mission or 722 00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:30,120 Speaker 2: disloyalty to Trump. To me, that's the you know, if 723 00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:31,759 Speaker 2: he did either of those things, and by the way, 724 00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:33,640 Speaker 2: then we would say, yeah, no, he's got to go. 725 00:38:33,640 --> 00:38:35,960 Speaker 2: I don't know what happened, but neither of those things. 726 00:38:36,760 --> 00:38:39,600 Speaker 2: Pete would solve his own arm before either of those 727 00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:40,240 Speaker 2: things happened. 728 00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:45,280 Speaker 3: I also think Trump learned a lesson in the first 729 00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:49,160 Speaker 3: term on many different levels, but one of them was 730 00:38:49,440 --> 00:38:53,719 Speaker 3: it doesn't end if he said, Okay, Pete, hegseth, I'm 731 00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:56,239 Speaker 3: gonna remove him. We're going to have a new defense secretary. 732 00:38:56,760 --> 00:38:59,600 Speaker 3: It's not like the media and the people who are 733 00:38:59,640 --> 00:39:02,640 Speaker 3: attacked him would suddenly say, Okay, you know, we're comfortable. 734 00:39:02,680 --> 00:39:04,600 Speaker 3: The analogy I would make is, and I've been making. 735 00:39:04,640 --> 00:39:07,520 Speaker 3: I've been on this for years. You can never change 736 00:39:07,520 --> 00:39:11,200 Speaker 3: a team name because nobody ever says, once you change 737 00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:13,680 Speaker 3: that team name, hey you know what we're done now. 738 00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:17,439 Speaker 3: So the Redskins name changes, the Indians name changes, They're 739 00:39:17,520 --> 00:39:20,040 Speaker 3: not satisfied. They don't say, okay, well this is good, 740 00:39:20,080 --> 00:39:22,239 Speaker 3: we're back to normal now. They say the Kansas City 741 00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:24,440 Speaker 3: Chiefs have to go, the Atlanta Berets have to go. 742 00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:27,880 Speaker 3: They always need a new target. So if you are Trump, 743 00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:31,000 Speaker 3: my advice to him would be, if you like the 744 00:39:31,040 --> 00:39:34,000 Speaker 3: people you picked, which it seems he did and does, 745 00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:37,200 Speaker 3: why in the world would you let people who don't 746 00:39:37,200 --> 00:39:41,160 Speaker 3: have your best interest at heart in any way encourage 747 00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:44,879 Speaker 3: you to change the choices that you have made so far. 748 00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:46,680 Speaker 3: And I think he learned that. I think he had 749 00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:49,120 Speaker 3: a little bit of Hey, you know, I'll play kate 750 00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:51,239 Speaker 3: my critics. Oh, I'll go ahead and I'll make a 751 00:39:51,239 --> 00:39:54,200 Speaker 3: shift here. If heg Seth's gone, who's next man up? 752 00:39:54,200 --> 00:39:57,239 Speaker 3: It's either RFK Junior or it's Tulsi. They come with 753 00:39:57,320 --> 00:40:00,279 Speaker 3: them guns blazing every day. Well, that's exactly right. 754 00:40:00,360 --> 00:40:00,880 Speaker 1: He knows. 755 00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:04,719 Speaker 2: Trump knows all too well that if he were to 756 00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:08,719 Speaker 2: replace his secretary of Defense this early, and especially a 757 00:40:08,760 --> 00:40:12,000 Speaker 2: secretary of Defense who has been so closely associated with 758 00:40:12,080 --> 00:40:15,840 Speaker 2: loyalty to the president and his mission, the headline of 759 00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:19,360 Speaker 2: the New York Times is not Donald Trump in an 760 00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:25,040 Speaker 2: about face and a moment of reasonableness and government, you know, 761 00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:29,440 Speaker 2: government acumen or efficiency, decided to make a decision that 762 00:40:29,480 --> 00:40:31,919 Speaker 2: we all agree with. Perhaps we'll see a new No, it's, 763 00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:36,120 Speaker 2: you know, showing what disorder there is in the Trump administration. 764 00:40:36,360 --> 00:40:39,080 Speaker 2: Trump has to toss out a secretary of defense. 765 00:40:39,400 --> 00:40:41,640 Speaker 1: This is just the beginning. There's so many more who 766 00:40:41,680 --> 00:40:42,480 Speaker 1: need to go. You know. 767 00:40:42,560 --> 00:40:46,400 Speaker 2: It's it just lights their fire man, it just turns. 768 00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:49,240 Speaker 2: It just makes them feel like they got one. And 769 00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:51,480 Speaker 2: that's the. 770 00:40:50,680 --> 00:40:51,640 Speaker 1: This is the lesson that I'll say. 771 00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:53,600 Speaker 2: Also, a lot of people learn during the whole cancelation 772 00:40:53,719 --> 00:40:57,319 Speaker 2: era of oh if I apologize or if I bend 773 00:40:57,320 --> 00:41:00,360 Speaker 2: the knee, oh no, you've ben the need apology. Guys, 774 00:41:00,800 --> 00:41:03,479 Speaker 2: then you're fired and you're never allowed to work again. 775 00:41:03,520 --> 00:41:09,040 Speaker 2: In your industry. There is no attempt at goodwill or reasonableness. 776 00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:12,000 Speaker 2: You can't negotiate with these people. This is why my 777 00:41:12,160 --> 00:41:14,399 Speaker 2: lesson that I've taken from this, and sometimes Buck gets 778 00:41:14,440 --> 00:41:17,319 Speaker 2: drawn into it, is you don't like something that I 779 00:41:17,400 --> 00:41:20,520 Speaker 2: did or said, I'm gonna double or triple down on 780 00:41:20,600 --> 00:41:22,479 Speaker 2: what I did or said that you don't like, because 781 00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:25,280 Speaker 2: I think that's the only way you can handle these people. 782 00:41:25,800 --> 00:41:29,640 Speaker 2: If they think that they can get you to step 783 00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:32,520 Speaker 2: back or not continue to say exactly what you think, 784 00:41:32,840 --> 00:41:34,520 Speaker 2: they will take advantage of you. 785 00:41:34,560 --> 00:41:39,920 Speaker 3: They're not good actors. They're not reasonable people. Reasonable people 786 00:41:39,960 --> 00:41:41,759 Speaker 3: you come together and you say, Okay, you might not 787 00:41:41,800 --> 00:41:43,440 Speaker 3: agree with this, like, let's have a conversation. 788 00:41:43,520 --> 00:41:45,160 Speaker 1: This is what most of America is like. 789 00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:47,480 Speaker 3: But the people trying to cancel you, the people who 790 00:41:47,560 --> 00:41:51,040 Speaker 3: want hag Seth gone, they are not the people out 791 00:41:51,040 --> 00:41:53,560 Speaker 3: there that are behaving in good faith. And I think 792 00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:55,400 Speaker 3: Trump had to learn that because I think there's a 793 00:41:55,400 --> 00:41:56,920 Speaker 3: part of Trump and I bet you would sign off 794 00:41:56,960 --> 00:41:59,880 Speaker 3: on this two Buck that actually does want to be liked. 795 00:42:00,280 --> 00:42:03,239 Speaker 3: You know, he's trying to get people to like him more. 796 00:42:03,600 --> 00:42:05,799 Speaker 3: And I think in his first term he thought, oh, 797 00:42:05,840 --> 00:42:07,759 Speaker 3: maybe they have a point. Maybe if I try to 798 00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:11,840 Speaker 3: work with them, they will be more, they'll be fairer. 799 00:42:12,239 --> 00:42:13,520 Speaker 3: And then they try to get you know, they try 800 00:42:13,560 --> 00:42:14,839 Speaker 3: to put in prison for the rest of the life 801 00:42:14,880 --> 00:42:17,799 Speaker 3: guy to kill him. And it's over right, like this 802 00:42:17,840 --> 00:42:20,160 Speaker 3: attempt to in some way make them happy. 803 00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:21,160 Speaker 1: He's done with it. 804 00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:24,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I think that this is one of the 805 00:42:24,200 --> 00:42:28,560 Speaker 2: major lessons from the first administration for Trump, which was 806 00:42:29,120 --> 00:42:30,520 Speaker 2: you know, I'm not talking about some of the lower 807 00:42:30,560 --> 00:42:32,759 Speaker 2: level people that had to get fired like Scaramuci and 808 00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:35,560 Speaker 2: some of this stuff, but also those are people who 809 00:42:35,760 --> 00:42:39,160 Speaker 2: just happen to be around and they were staffing up fast. 810 00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:42,000 Speaker 2: These picks that Trump has put in place, this is 811 00:42:42,280 --> 00:42:47,960 Speaker 2: his team, he vetted. He knows these people individually, he 812 00:42:48,120 --> 00:42:52,080 Speaker 2: knows what they're trying to accomplish. And so this isn't oh, 813 00:42:52,120 --> 00:42:54,279 Speaker 2: we just needed to grab somebody and someone else said 814 00:42:54,280 --> 00:42:57,360 Speaker 2: this guy was good. This is I'm going to feed 815 00:42:57,800 --> 00:43:02,200 Speaker 2: one of my people to the angry mob and he's 816 00:43:02,239 --> 00:43:03,560 Speaker 2: not gonna do it, I'm telling you, and it's not 817 00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:05,359 Speaker 2: going to happen. This is I think this is fake 818 00:43:05,440 --> 00:43:09,480 Speaker 2: news from NPR, which shouldn't be getting any of our money. 819 00:43:09,480 --> 00:43:11,000 Speaker 2: By the way, I think we should tee off on 820 00:43:11,040 --> 00:43:13,879 Speaker 2: this even more than we do. The government doesn't pay us. 821 00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:16,640 Speaker 2: We got the biggest radio show in the country. The 822 00:43:16,680 --> 00:43:19,960 Speaker 2: government's not paying Sean Hannity, government's not playing Glenn Beck, 823 00:43:20,080 --> 00:43:21,880 Speaker 2: Jesse Kelly, all the people that are a part of 824 00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:25,360 Speaker 2: our premier network.

It 827 00:43:32,480 --> 00:43:33,400 Speaker 2: doesn't make any sense at all. 828 00:43:33,440 --> 00:43:34,000 Speaker 1: It's crazy. 829 00:43:34,440 --> 00:43:36,800 Speaker 3: We're proud to say we're among the millions of Americans 830 00:43:36,840 --> 00:43:39,840 Speaker 3: out there that own successful businesses supported by you and 831 00:43:39,920 --> 00:43:40,680 Speaker 3: so many others. 832 00:43:40,680 --> 00:43:41,680 Speaker 1: That's Crockett Coffee. 833 00:43:41,719 --> 00:43:45,040 Speaker 3: We started Crockett Coffee because we wanted to provide coffee 834 00:43:45,040 --> 00:43:47,839 Speaker 3: lovers with small batch roasted coffee inspired by a true 835 00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:51,040 Speaker 3: American folk hero, Davy Crockett.

Clay is 870 00:45:50,640 --> 00:45:53,799 Speaker 2: both somewhat dismissive of this prospect, but I think also 871 00:45:53,920 --> 00:45:56,560 Speaker 2: enthusiastic if it were to happen, because he thinks AOC 872 00:45:57,400 --> 00:46:00,719 Speaker 2: is going to be easy for our to handle and 873 00:46:00,800 --> 00:46:03,279 Speaker 2: deal with. But let's let's get in sience. First of all, 874 00:46:03,280 --> 00:46:07,760 Speaker 2: there's clearly an issue that the Democrats have right now, 875 00:46:08,280 --> 00:46:12,280 Speaker 2: as all the polling shows. It's not just that Trump 876 00:46:12,520 --> 00:46:14,880 Speaker 2: is getting it done and so far it's been a 877 00:46:14,920 --> 00:46:20,600 Speaker 2: really solid administration. It is that the Democrats are keep 878 00:46:20,680 --> 00:46:24,080 Speaker 2: using the word in disarray. The Democrats are in a 879 00:46:24,400 --> 00:46:26,200 Speaker 2: rough spot. Play twenty three. 880 00:46:27,080 --> 00:46:30,080 Speaker 6: I'll think the message the Cournchlan Democratic Party is a 881 00:46:30,120 --> 00:46:33,360 Speaker 6: good beasts. The problem we've got is that we have 882 00:46:33,520 --> 00:46:37,160 Speaker 6: to depend upon the media to deliver it. If we 883 00:46:37,560 --> 00:46:41,680 Speaker 6: have the Washington Post, for instance, giving to this want 884 00:46:41,680 --> 00:46:45,360 Speaker 6: to be dictated, and we've got other media entities that 885 00:46:45,560 --> 00:46:49,920 Speaker 6: seem to rather push a narrative that we're bringing eyes 886 00:46:50,239 --> 00:46:53,640 Speaker 6: to the newspapers or to their television sets and not 887 00:46:53,920 --> 00:46:58,840 Speaker 6: really give a fear sharing or reporting to what we're doing. 888 00:47:00,840 --> 00:47:03,359 Speaker 1: Now, the media component of this. 889 00:47:04,840 --> 00:47:06,960 Speaker 3: First of all, the fact that he's saying the media 890 00:47:07,080 --> 00:47:11,880 Speaker 3: is not rigged enough in our favor anymore basically is accurate, 891 00:47:12,120 --> 00:47:14,920 Speaker 3: but also really funny that he is making that case. 892 00:47:15,239 --> 00:47:17,400 Speaker 2: But so this is where I want to weigh on 893 00:47:17,440 --> 00:47:21,000 Speaker 2: the AOC point of things. The legacy media. He's saying, oh, 894 00:47:21,040 --> 00:47:23,200 Speaker 2: the media is not in on no what he's picking 895 00:47:23,280 --> 00:47:27,520 Speaker 2: up on what Jim clyburn is referring to. He's seeing 896 00:47:27,560 --> 00:47:31,040 Speaker 2: a shift, but he's misdiagnosing the shift. It's not that 897 00:47:31,080 --> 00:47:34,520 Speaker 2: the media isn't as on the Democrat team. It's that 898 00:47:34,840 --> 00:47:39,440 Speaker 2: the legacy what we used to call the mainstream media, 899 00:47:39,680 --> 00:47:44,280 Speaker 2: you know, the Democrat aligned corporate media, the three letter 900 00:47:44,360 --> 00:47:49,239 Speaker 2: non Fox networks, the biggest newspapers in the country, the 901 00:47:49,440 --> 00:47:54,440 Speaker 2: Sunday talk shows, right, they all no longer have the 902 00:47:54,480 --> 00:47:57,600 Speaker 2: ability to influence the conversation the way they used to, 903 00:47:58,239 --> 00:48:01,600 Speaker 2: even on the Republican side, but in general, and certainly 904 00:48:01,640 --> 00:48:04,360 Speaker 2: on the Democrats side, they don't set the agenda for 905 00:48:04,480 --> 00:48:07,920 Speaker 2: the nation the way that things used to be. So 906 00:48:08,160 --> 00:48:10,319 Speaker 2: what he's feeling or he's saying, is, oh, they're not 907 00:48:10,320 --> 00:48:12,000 Speaker 2: as on our side. It's no, They're just not as 908 00:48:12,040 --> 00:48:13,960 Speaker 2: effective as they used to be. They don't matter as 909 00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:16,000 Speaker 2: much as they used to. So this is where I 910 00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:19,880 Speaker 2: think AOC comes in. I understand people are gonna say 911 00:48:20,440 --> 00:48:25,040 Speaker 2: that AOC is an idiot communist and that she will 912 00:48:25,120 --> 00:48:28,160 Speaker 2: be a mess for the Democrats, and I don't disagree 913 00:48:28,160 --> 00:48:31,360 Speaker 2: with some of that assessment, but she can just change 914 00:48:31,400 --> 00:48:33,120 Speaker 2: what she has said in the past. I think that 915 00:48:33,120 --> 00:48:35,400 Speaker 2: we're in an era now where people are no longer 916 00:48:35,480 --> 00:48:37,680 Speaker 2: really tied to what they said yesterday in nevermind what 917 00:48:37,680 --> 00:48:41,480 Speaker 2: they said a few years ago. Politically and Clay, she 918 00:48:42,040 --> 00:48:45,359 Speaker 2: has online what do they say? What do the kids say? 919 00:48:45,400 --> 00:48:45,520 Speaker 5: Now? 920 00:48:46,520 --> 00:48:50,040 Speaker 2: Riz, which is short I believe for charisma. She's got 921 00:48:50,040 --> 00:48:54,560 Speaker 2: the RIZ, She's got aura. She is able to command 922 00:48:55,320 --> 00:49:00,600 Speaker 2: massive attention and interest in the online ecosystem, which is 923 00:49:00,680 --> 00:49:04,200 Speaker 2: now a much bigger part of the media apparatus than 924 00:49:04,200 --> 00:49:07,200 Speaker 2: ever before. That is my pitch to you for why 925 00:49:07,440 --> 00:49:10,640 Speaker 2: they change what she says. They make her seem slightly 926 00:49:10,719 --> 00:49:13,879 Speaker 2: less insane. She's, you know, looks good on camera. She's 927 00:49:13,880 --> 00:49:18,840 Speaker 2: a Latin female boom or Latin American female boom. 928 00:49:19,440 --> 00:49:21,920 Speaker 3: I think her problem is Democrats are not going to 929 00:49:22,000 --> 00:49:26,200 Speaker 3: go with a woman because they saw what happened to Hillary, 930 00:49:26,800 --> 00:49:29,920 Speaker 3: they saw what happened to Kamala. I think they have 931 00:49:30,960 --> 00:49:35,000 Speaker 3: gotten burned twice by women. Who did they win with 932 00:49:35,960 --> 00:49:40,319 Speaker 3: Joe Biden. This old white guy I think they will 933 00:49:40,360 --> 00:49:43,759 Speaker 3: find looking ahead to twenty eight, AOC as a vice 934 00:49:43,840 --> 00:49:47,919 Speaker 3: presidential nominee I think could make sense. I think they 935 00:49:47,960 --> 00:49:54,560 Speaker 3: will find, interestingly enough, an old white guy or a 936 00:49:54,960 --> 00:49:59,359 Speaker 3: Barack Obama like young male, young ish. Right, we're talking 937 00:49:59,400 --> 00:50:02,040 Speaker 3: about politic where if you're forty five, this is this 938 00:50:02,120 --> 00:50:04,720 Speaker 3: is the more the westmore more theory. 939 00:50:04,760 --> 00:50:07,080 Speaker 2: To me, those are the two. It's you know that either. 940 00:50:07,160 --> 00:50:09,520 Speaker 2: So to me that the decision the Democrats are making, 941 00:50:09,560 --> 00:50:12,560 Speaker 2: Clay is are they going to build? And remember, this 942 00:50:12,640 --> 00:50:15,080 Speaker 2: is going to be a process. Right, So to what 943 00:50:15,120 --> 00:50:17,480 Speaker 2: you're saying about with with AOC, it doesn't even have 944 00:50:17,560 --> 00:50:19,720 Speaker 2: to just be who's the president of four years Clay. 945 00:50:19,760 --> 00:50:23,000 Speaker 2: I mean, who's going to be the primary voice of 946 00:50:23,040 --> 00:50:25,800 Speaker 2: the Democrats going into the midterms, right, who's the leader 947 00:50:26,080 --> 00:50:27,239 Speaker 2: now or soon? 948 00:50:27,360 --> 00:50:32,080 Speaker 3: Here's the other thing. Remember that the DNC basically said, Bernie, 949 00:50:32,120 --> 00:50:34,879 Speaker 3: you're not going to be the guy. Bernie is now 950 00:50:34,920 --> 00:50:39,040 Speaker 3: trying to deputize AOC as the next generation leader. I 951 00:50:39,080 --> 00:50:41,520 Speaker 3: think we know one hundred year old man thing is 952 00:50:41,560 --> 00:50:43,799 Speaker 3: not actually a good look in politics. We did learn 953 00:50:43,800 --> 00:50:46,480 Speaker 3: that from Biden. You can be you can in fact 954 00:50:46,560 --> 00:50:50,560 Speaker 3: be too old for this job. I think the Democrat 955 00:50:50,719 --> 00:50:55,839 Speaker 3: party elites do not like AOC, and so I think 956 00:50:55,880 --> 00:50:59,520 Speaker 3: they will line up in some way eventually, much like 957 00:50:59,600 --> 00:51:01,120 Speaker 3: they suddenly the Party. 958 00:51:00,800 --> 00:51:04,239 Speaker 1: Of Democracy actually just picks people. Right. 959 00:51:05,560 --> 00:51:08,319 Speaker 3: Obama got past Hillary even though she had all the 960 00:51:08,360 --> 00:51:13,000 Speaker 3: advantages in eight But he's the exception. Most of the time, 961 00:51:13,520 --> 00:51:17,400 Speaker 3: they say, hey, you're the guy or you're the gal, 962 00:51:17,840 --> 00:51:21,400 Speaker 3: and Democracy be damned. James Cliburn, who you just played. 963 00:51:22,040 --> 00:51:25,840 Speaker 3: Remember Obama came out, sorry, Biden came in, I believe, 964 00:51:26,000 --> 00:51:32,520 Speaker 3: fifth in Iowa, fourth in New Hampshire, second in Nevada. 965 00:51:33,040 --> 00:51:37,239 Speaker 3: And then suddenly James Clyburn said it's Biden because everybody 966 00:51:37,320 --> 00:51:39,759 Speaker 3: was afraid it was otherwise going to be Bernie. It 967 00:51:39,800 --> 00:51:43,040 Speaker 3: doesn't get talked about enough, but Bernie probably would have 968 00:51:43,040 --> 00:51:45,400 Speaker 3: been the pick of the Democrat Party but for the 969 00:51:45,480 --> 00:51:50,160 Speaker 3: rigging in sixteen and the choice that he's too radical 970 00:51:50,200 --> 00:51:52,840 Speaker 3: in twenty they okay, so let me let me just 971 00:51:52,880 --> 00:51:55,359 Speaker 3: throw this out there, though I think put us Oude 972 00:51:55,400 --> 00:51:58,000 Speaker 3: the age going at the last few Democrats, last few 973 00:51:58,040 --> 00:52:03,319 Speaker 3: Democrat cycles, last few elections. Bernie was a progressive, really 974 00:52:03,800 --> 00:52:10,040 Speaker 3: a socialist maybe a communist, who ran as such, and 975 00:52:10,080 --> 00:52:13,640 Speaker 3: that was the problem for him. What Democrats want is 976 00:52:13,680 --> 00:52:17,640 Speaker 3: they want Obama. They want a socialist who pretends at 977 00:52:17,680 --> 00:52:23,239 Speaker 3: election time to be more reasonable on economics or more 978 00:52:23,280 --> 00:52:28,080 Speaker 3: centrists on these different things. If AOC pivots and says, 979 00:52:28,320 --> 00:52:30,680 Speaker 3: you know, oh it is my progressive youth, doesn't have 980 00:52:30,719 --> 00:52:31,120 Speaker 3: to say that. 981 00:52:31,160 --> 00:52:32,920 Speaker 2: But no, that will be the perception. Oh she was 982 00:52:32,960 --> 00:52:36,080 Speaker 2: such a progressive, but now she's moving toward the center. 983 00:52:36,840 --> 00:52:39,799 Speaker 2: That to me is the way that the Democrats get 984 00:52:39,840 --> 00:52:42,480 Speaker 2: because the Democrats for them to win a national election. 985 00:52:42,520 --> 00:52:42,880 Speaker 1: Look at it. 986 00:52:43,000 --> 00:52:46,040 Speaker 2: The Joe Biden. Oh he's good old Biden. He's a centrist, 987 00:52:46,080 --> 00:52:47,719 Speaker 2: he's a monor. You can trust him. And then you 988 00:52:47,840 --> 00:52:50,440 Speaker 2: got a communication from the White House saying we need 989 00:52:50,480 --> 00:52:52,400 Speaker 2: to protect trans surgery for eight year olds or ten 990 00:52:52,440 --> 00:52:54,439 Speaker 2: year olds. I mean he was insane. Okay, you got 991 00:52:54,480 --> 00:52:56,880 Speaker 2: far left policy out of a Biden White House. But 992 00:52:56,960 --> 00:53:01,440 Speaker 2: Biden was the facade to fool people. The trojan horse AOC, 993 00:53:02,200 --> 00:53:05,120 Speaker 2: if she positions properly, in my mind, can be the 994 00:53:05,200 --> 00:53:07,880 Speaker 2: same thing. The progressives know that she's actually a kami. 995 00:53:08,200 --> 00:53:12,160 Speaker 2: But she'll present, she'll go on with Stefanopalopolis and she'll 996 00:53:12,200 --> 00:53:14,000 Speaker 2: say that, oh no, I believe in a free market 997 00:53:14,000 --> 00:53:16,759 Speaker 2: economy too, and you know, the usual headfake. That's how 998 00:53:16,800 --> 00:53:18,200 Speaker 2: I see it playing out. 999 00:53:18,560 --> 00:53:21,040 Speaker 3: I got off the AOC bus. You may remember this 1000 00:53:21,080 --> 00:53:23,279 Speaker 3: because you were in New York at the time. Do 1001 00:53:23,280 --> 00:53:26,520 Speaker 3: you remember when she opposed Amazon's new headquarters in Queen's 1002 00:53:26,640 --> 00:53:27,600 Speaker 3: I think it was in. 1003 00:53:27,600 --> 00:53:30,000 Speaker 1: On Island City, A big headquarters are. Yeah. I have 1004 00:53:30,080 --> 00:53:32,320 Speaker 1: family that have a that lived there, so I know 1005 00:53:32,360 --> 00:53:32,880 Speaker 1: all about it. 1006 00:53:33,320 --> 00:53:36,360 Speaker 3: And when she opposed it, she didn't even understand the 1007 00:53:36,440 --> 00:53:41,279 Speaker 3: concept of how tax rebates worked. She thought that taxpayers 1008 00:53:41,320 --> 00:53:45,839 Speaker 3: were giving billions of dollars in cash to Amazon, and she. 1009 00:53:45,920 --> 00:53:49,280 Speaker 1: Torpedoed that entire deal. Am I remembering correctly? 1010 00:53:49,320 --> 00:53:51,319 Speaker 3: They were going to build a big headquarters in New 1011 00:53:51,400 --> 00:53:55,359 Speaker 3: York City and in DC, and then she said no, 1012 00:53:55,600 --> 00:53:58,560 Speaker 3: and they basically just are building I believe in northern 1013 00:53:58,640 --> 00:54:02,239 Speaker 3: Virginia a big Amazon on East coast headquarters to go 1014 00:54:02,280 --> 00:54:05,719 Speaker 3: along with their West Coast headquarters. She destroyed all that. 1015 00:54:06,360 --> 00:54:09,719 Speaker 3: So my concern as I were looking at this is 1016 00:54:10,239 --> 00:54:15,640 Speaker 3: Hillary got beaten. But Hillary's not a moron. Kamala I 1017 00:54:15,719 --> 00:54:19,759 Speaker 3: think was a moron in that Kamala could not elucidate 1018 00:54:19,800 --> 00:54:23,560 Speaker 3: in an intelligent way what she actually supported because she 1019 00:54:23,800 --> 00:54:27,719 Speaker 3: just tripped all over herself. I think AOC is closer 1020 00:54:27,760 --> 00:54:29,600 Speaker 3: to Kamala than she is to Hillary. 1021 00:54:30,080 --> 00:54:30,879 Speaker 1: And so is. 1022 00:54:30,840 --> 00:54:35,800 Speaker 2: Biden a moron? Yes, okay, he was president. He was president. 1023 00:54:36,600 --> 00:54:39,799 Speaker 3: He's an old white guy, and the data reflected that 1024 00:54:39,840 --> 00:54:42,719 Speaker 3: there were enough old white people who didn't see him 1025 00:54:42,760 --> 00:54:45,200 Speaker 3: as a threat. This is something you got right in 1026 00:54:45,280 --> 00:54:49,640 Speaker 3: the Midwest that I think will see AOC as more 1027 00:54:49,680 --> 00:54:52,879 Speaker 3: of a threat, much like they saw Kamala as more 1028 00:54:52,920 --> 00:54:55,080 Speaker 3: of a threat to their overall lifestyle. 1029 00:54:55,480 --> 00:54:56,200 Speaker 1: In order to. 1030 00:54:56,200 --> 00:54:59,520 Speaker 3: Get a Communist in the White House, you have to 1031 00:54:59,600 --> 00:55:02,480 Speaker 3: hide him. They're able to hide Biden because I don't 1032 00:55:02,480 --> 00:55:04,880 Speaker 3: think Biden knew what he believed in anymore. But he 1033 00:55:04,960 --> 00:55:08,520 Speaker 3: had that moderate history, and they basically just kind of 1034 00:55:08,560 --> 00:55:10,440 Speaker 3: hit him. They put him in the basement, and they 1035 00:55:10,520 --> 00:55:14,200 Speaker 3: ran him as generic old white guy candidate. I don't 1036 00:55:14,200 --> 00:55:17,200 Speaker 3: know who the generic old white guy candidate could be 1037 00:55:17,360 --> 00:55:18,640 Speaker 3: in twenty twenty eight. 1038 00:55:18,600 --> 00:55:20,719 Speaker 1: But it may be somebody. Look at Obama, you don't 1039 00:55:20,719 --> 00:55:21,719 Speaker 1: have to be a white I mean, you don't have 1040 00:55:21,760 --> 00:55:22,680 Speaker 1: to be an old white guy. 1041 00:55:23,600 --> 00:55:27,399 Speaker 3: Motivated minority voters in a way that was unique, which 1042 00:55:27,400 --> 00:55:30,520 Speaker 3: is why I think the Wes Moore analogy applies. I 1043 00:55:30,560 --> 00:55:33,480 Speaker 3: think if Wes Moore were talented, then I think he 1044 00:55:33,520 --> 00:55:37,400 Speaker 3: could be a charismatic, younger generation leader. I think AOC 1045 00:55:37,680 --> 00:55:40,440 Speaker 3: is more aligned with Kamala and Hillary, and I just 1046 00:55:40,520 --> 00:55:43,319 Speaker 3: don't think they will pick a woman based on going 1047 00:55:43,320 --> 00:55:44,320 Speaker 3: over too with women. 1048 00:55:44,880 --> 00:55:47,799 Speaker 2: Well, I for one, Clay, they want to shadow that 1049 00:55:47,840 --> 00:55:51,520 Speaker 2: glass ceiling, and they haven't given up the dream until 1050 00:55:52,400 --> 00:55:55,640 Speaker 2: I think that. Look, if somebody said, and maybe there's 1051 00:55:55,640 --> 00:55:57,279 Speaker 2: a way I can do this, like put money on 1052 00:55:57,320 --> 00:55:59,480 Speaker 2: a ticket right now, to me, it's probably Wes Moore 1053 00:55:59,520 --> 00:56:02,319 Speaker 2: at the top the ticket with aocs VP. But I 1054 00:56:02,360 --> 00:56:05,480 Speaker 2: still think that that AOC in the meantime is a 1055 00:56:05,680 --> 00:56:10,880 Speaker 2: far more important part of the Democrat resistance because Wes 1056 00:56:10,880 --> 00:56:14,960 Speaker 2: Moore can play that role in politics of the all 1057 00:56:15,000 --> 00:56:17,880 Speaker 2: American guy kind of a mind. It doesn't matter what 1058 00:56:17,920 --> 00:56:20,360 Speaker 2: he really is on policy, right, they'll just say whatever. 1059 00:56:20,480 --> 00:56:23,000 Speaker 2: This is the same thing with Obama. Obama was a 1060 00:56:23,080 --> 00:56:26,439 Speaker 2: radical state senator, radical leftist. Obama was the most left 1061 00:56:26,440 --> 00:56:28,839 Speaker 2: wing senator in the United States Senate when he ran 1062 00:56:28,880 --> 00:56:31,200 Speaker 2: for president, and they were you know then he gave 1063 00:56:31,200 --> 00:56:34,320 Speaker 2: flowery speeches and everyone. Oh, so they can do the 1064 00:56:34,360 --> 00:56:36,719 Speaker 2: same thing, I think with Wes Moore. So to me 1065 00:56:36,760 --> 00:56:37,840 Speaker 2: it would be Wes Moore at the fault of the 1066 00:56:37,840 --> 00:56:40,440 Speaker 2: ticket and AOC at the bottom of the ticket. But 1067 00:56:40,640 --> 00:56:42,600 Speaker 2: I just think that if you're looking for a leader 1068 00:56:42,600 --> 00:56:48,719 Speaker 2: of the resistance, Bernie too old, I mean Pelosi too old. 1069 00:56:48,840 --> 00:56:51,440 Speaker 2: These people are just no, they no longer have resonance 1070 00:56:51,480 --> 00:56:54,000 Speaker 2: with the broader electorate. They all look like they should 1071 00:56:54,040 --> 00:56:57,799 Speaker 2: be spending time with their great grandkids. One thing that 1072 00:56:58,040 --> 00:57:01,319 Speaker 2: isn't getting very much attention. But I think you know 1073 00:57:01,400 --> 00:57:05,759 Speaker 2: who hasn't been very outspoken about this, Abreo Garcia, Dude, the. 1074 00:57:05,719 --> 00:57:09,000 Speaker 3: Governor of Maryland. You got the senator getting on a 1075 00:57:09,000 --> 00:57:12,720 Speaker 3: plane going to El Salvador. Wes Moore is the governor 1076 00:57:12,760 --> 00:57:17,480 Speaker 3: of Maryland. If he were trying to tack towards the left, 1077 00:57:18,200 --> 00:57:21,320 Speaker 3: wouldn't he be on a plane to El Salvador El 1078 00:57:21,400 --> 00:57:24,440 Speaker 3: Salvador about He could be the lead. He could be 1079 00:57:24,480 --> 00:57:29,120 Speaker 3: the a bloc, first guest on every non Fox, you know, 1080 00:57:29,200 --> 00:57:32,560 Speaker 3: left wing cable news show and have a front page, 1081 00:57:32,560 --> 00:57:34,640 Speaker 3: you know, a top of the fold editorial in the 1082 00:57:34,680 --> 00:57:37,240 Speaker 3: New York Times in an instant. If he wanted to 1083 00:57:37,240 --> 00:57:39,120 Speaker 3: go in on this subject in a heavy way. 1084 00:57:39,480 --> 00:57:41,240 Speaker 1: He's not. I think that's interesting. 1085 00:57:41,280 --> 00:57:44,400 Speaker 3: The other thing you you've talked about, how I trust 1086 00:57:44,600 --> 00:57:49,520 Speaker 3: football fans sports fans more than non sports fans. It's 1087 00:57:49,520 --> 00:57:52,320 Speaker 3: a cigaret handshake. I think this guy is not a 1088 00:57:52,320 --> 00:57:56,040 Speaker 3: fake sports fan. He's a big Baltimore Ravens fan. He's 1089 00:57:56,040 --> 00:57:59,640 Speaker 3: got a military background. I saw a video of him 1090 00:57:59,720 --> 00:58:03,160 Speaker 3: teal Gating, and he didn't look like Tim Wall's doing 1091 00:58:03,240 --> 00:58:06,280 Speaker 3: spirit fingers. He just seemed like a normal dude who 1092 00:58:06,360 --> 00:58:09,080 Speaker 3: liked to go have a beer, have a hot dog maybe, 1093 00:58:09,360 --> 00:58:12,480 Speaker 3: and get ready for a game. Sports fans can tell 1094 00:58:12,480 --> 00:58:14,800 Speaker 3: whether you're fake or not because a lot of politicians 1095 00:58:14,880 --> 00:58:16,200 Speaker 3: want to appear to. 1096 00:58:16,240 --> 00:58:17,320 Speaker 1: Be regular guys. 1097 00:58:17,640 --> 00:58:20,040 Speaker 3: The fact that he's not getting all involved in this 1098 00:58:20,120 --> 00:58:23,320 Speaker 3: El Salvador thing super interesting to me, because to your point, 1099 00:58:23,320 --> 00:58:26,200 Speaker 3: he could be on every television show in the country 1100 00:58:26,480 --> 00:58:30,080 Speaker 3: talking about it. I think maybe he's smarter politically than 1101 00:58:30,120 --> 00:58:32,480 Speaker 3: he has been given credit for. He can ride above 1102 00:58:32,520 --> 00:58:35,960 Speaker 3: the fray as a popular governor and then parachute in 1103 00:58:36,480 --> 00:58:40,680 Speaker 3: to the twenty twenty eight race as a relatively normal dude. 1104 00:58:41,160 --> 00:58:43,720 Speaker 3: I also know, you know what else, Buck, he actually 1105 00:58:43,760 --> 00:58:47,240 Speaker 3: has a pretty good relationship with Trump, which would surprise people. 1106 00:58:47,280 --> 00:58:50,760 Speaker 3: I think he has been very happy to meet with Trump, 1107 00:58:50,920 --> 00:58:55,080 Speaker 3: call him be at his public events. I think that 1108 00:58:55,200 --> 00:58:56,920 Speaker 3: he's smarter than a lot of people are giving him 1109 00:58:56,920 --> 00:58:59,280 Speaker 3: credit for, and a lot of people don't know it yet. 1110 00:58:59,400 --> 00:59:01,640 Speaker 2: I've said all I think that he's I think he's 1111 00:59:01,680 --> 00:59:04,240 Speaker 2: the likeliest guy right now to be the standard bearer 1112 00:59:04,280 --> 00:59:07,200 Speaker 2: for the Democrats in the next election. But that's different 1113 00:59:07,200 --> 00:59:10,760 Speaker 2: than who is the leader of the resistance. Between now 1114 00:59:10,800 --> 00:59:12,800 Speaker 2: and the mid terms, let's say, and I think you're 1115 00:59:12,840 --> 00:59:15,320 Speaker 2: just going to see more and more of AOC and 1116 00:59:15,440 --> 00:59:18,000 Speaker 2: that actually may play to his favor, to Wes Moore's 1117 00:59:18,000 --> 00:59:21,040 Speaker 2: favor in the general, just because he doesn't have to. 1118 00:59:21,760 --> 00:59:24,480 Speaker 1: You know, stay out of his hand, stay out of 1119 00:59:24,480 --> 00:59:25,120 Speaker 1: the fray Man. 1120 00:59:25,240 --> 00:59:27,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, stay out of the fray I mean that's probably 1121 00:59:27,040 --> 00:59:29,240 Speaker 2: a smart's probably a smart move. Look, when I first 1122 00:59:29,280 --> 00:59:31,000 Speaker 2: came across the story, I had to read it twice. 1123 00:59:31,080 --> 00:59:32,920 Speaker 2: You'll hear why in a moment. For over one hundred 1124 00:59:32,920 --> 00:59:35,440 Speaker 2: and sixty years and acid worth one hundred and fifty 1125 00:59:35,440 --> 00:59:39,320 Speaker 2: trillion dollars has been buried on American soil. This endowment, 1126 00:59:39,400 --> 00:59:41,160 Speaker 2: so to speak, is so large it could pay off 1127 00:59:41,200 --> 00:59:43,880 Speaker 2: our national debt four times over. Why has it been 1128 00:59:43,920 --> 00:59:46,920 Speaker 2: kept secret for so long? Thanks to a Supreme Court decision, 1129 00:59:46,960 --> 00:59:50,480 Speaker 2: President Trump could soon release it to the public. Jim Rickards, 1130 00:59:50,560 --> 00:59:53,080 Speaker 2: former advisor to the White House and Federal Reserve, says, 1131 00:59:53,080 --> 00:59:55,600 Speaker 2: if you're over fifty, this could be your best chance 1132 00:59:55,640 --> 00:59:58,360 Speaker 2: to build lasting well from a once in a century event. 1133 00:59:58,760 --> 01:00:00,800 Speaker 2: This story may be published as in his May third 1134 01:00:01,120 --> 01:00:04,800 Speaker 2: To watch Jim's interview, go online to Birthright twenty twenty 1135 01:00:04,800 --> 01:00:07,320 Speaker 2: five dot com.
