1
00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:03,240
Speaker 1: This is Buck's first thoughts. The news you need to

2
00:00:03,240 --> 00:00:05,840
Speaker 1: get for your day in forty five minutes. Make sure

3
00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:08,520
Speaker 1: you subscribe on the iHeart app or wherever you get

4
00:00:08,560 --> 00:00:15,080
Speaker 1: your podcasts. The purge is underway, as you know. In fact,

5
00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:18,680
Speaker 1: it's gaining it's gaining steam. And they'll tell you that

6
00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:21,560
Speaker 1: it is for the worst elements of our society. They'll

7
00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:24,760
Speaker 1: tell you that it's about getting rid of white supremacists,

8
00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:32,080
Speaker 1: domestic terrorists, awful violent people, insurrectionists. But when you listen

9
00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:35,760
Speaker 1: to the actual language they use, it's much broader than that.

10
00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:40,840
Speaker 1: It's really an attempt to try to smear anyone who

11
00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:43,959
Speaker 1: is right of center, if they voted for Trump, if

12
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:47,360
Speaker 1: they were a part of any of the pro Trump rallies,

13
00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:51,120
Speaker 1: particularly after the election, they must be evil and our

14
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:55,480
Speaker 1: institutions have to be cleansed of this. And cleansing is

15
00:00:55,520 --> 00:00:58,760
Speaker 1: obviously a term that should put everyone's the hair on

16
00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:01,880
Speaker 1: their arms standing up. That's not something that we should

17
00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:05,160
Speaker 1: be thinking of when we're talking about government bodies, and

18
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:08,720
Speaker 1: especially when you're looking at the military. But this is

19
00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:12,920
Speaker 1: now the plain language of the Democrat Party today. You've

20
00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:16,520
Speaker 1: got Joe Biden, for example, who's out there talking about

21
00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:20,920
Speaker 1: white supremacy as an enemy that we must combat. And

22
00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:24,760
Speaker 1: I would just say, as we look at this, we

23
00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 1: need to remember that this is a group of people.

24
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:31,200
Speaker 1: When you're talking about actual white supremacists, it's a group

25
00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:35,800
Speaker 1: of people who are marginalized and maligned all throughout society,

26
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:40,800
Speaker 1: including on the right and rightly so. But how often

27
00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:46,320
Speaker 1: do we go around really worried about flat earthers overtaking

28
00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:48,360
Speaker 1: the scientific community. I mean, how often do we go

29
00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:52,760
Speaker 1: around thinking that some fringe group of lunatics are really

30
00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:57,000
Speaker 1: about to overthrow the United States government, or some radical,

31
00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:02,080
Speaker 1: violent extremist entity from within is just days away from

32
00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:04,160
Speaker 1: trying to launch some kind of a coup. There's a

33
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:08,640
Speaker 1: hysteria around this. We should all recognize that, we should

34
00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:11,680
Speaker 1: see it for what it is. And it's very concerning

35
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:14,560
Speaker 1: to me because I've been sounding the alarm about the

36
00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 1: expansion of the term white supremacy to include things that

37
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:24,480
Speaker 1: no reasonable rational person would ever say or in fact

38
00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:28,639
Speaker 1: white supremacist when you use that term in the past,

39
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:32,799
Speaker 1: and you can go back to two movies in the nineties,

40
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,760
Speaker 1: go back to pop culture and the way we would

41
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:38,160
Speaker 1: talk about these things. If you heard of a neo

42
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:40,920
Speaker 1: Nazi or a white supremacist. It was going to be

43
00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:45,880
Speaker 1: a person who was hateful toward other races, who was

44
00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:52,680
Speaker 1: vicious evil covered in swastika's usually shaved head. You know,

45
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:55,079
Speaker 1: there are all these things, your skinheads, There are all

46
00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:59,239
Speaker 1: these signifiers. And it was like a ghotist. It was

47
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:04,680
Speaker 1: a person who had become overtaken by an evil ideology

48
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:07,600
Speaker 1: and it was their heinous I mean, they're the bad guys.

49
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:10,120
Speaker 1: We all get that, the same way that any Nazi

50
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:11,600
Speaker 1: would be a bad guy, the same way that any

51
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:14,720
Speaker 1: communist is a bad guy or ge hottest. Right, these

52
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:20,440
Speaker 1: are extreme ideologies that always result in violence, authoritarianism, and

53
00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:23,840
Speaker 1: destruction if they achieve power, and even if they're out

54
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:27,120
Speaker 1: of power, they can be destructive on a smaller scale.

55
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:30,160
Speaker 1: So we all understood that the white supremacy was bad.

56
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:33,080
Speaker 1: We all get that, you know the same way that

57
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,240
Speaker 1: we all know murder is bad. This is a very

58
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 1: straightforward thing. But now when you hear the terminology and

59
00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:42,640
Speaker 1: when you hear the usage of this, all of a sudden,

60
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 1: white supremacy is having too many books by white authors

61
00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:51,200
Speaker 1: in a store. White supremacy, and this is how the

62
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:53,480
Speaker 1: left talks about it. I know you hear this. You say,

63
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:59,920
Speaker 1: that's crazy. White supremacy. Is somebody advocating against affirmative action

64
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:04,920
Speaker 1: in college admissions and pointing to how it discriminates against

65
00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:09,720
Speaker 1: Asian Americans more than anyone else in the process. White supremacy. Right,

66
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:12,480
Speaker 1: Why should we shut down a gifted and talented schools

67
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:18,880
Speaker 1: or schools for the gifted more generally that overprivileged the

68
00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:21,719
Speaker 1: Asian American community. Well, it's because of the system of

69
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:23,960
Speaker 1: white supremacy we have. This is what people will say.

70
00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:29,279
Speaker 1: And now we have an entire government that is latching

71
00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:33,159
Speaker 1: onto this as as the the boogeyman, so to speak.

72
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:35,680
Speaker 1: This is the evil that we are all supposed to

73
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:39,240
Speaker 1: be hiding under our beds from, or word is hiding

74
00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:40,920
Speaker 1: under our bed If you think about the way the

75
00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:44,640
Speaker 1: boogeyman is usually thought of, this is what we're supposed

76
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:46,880
Speaker 1: to be confronting as a society. We're in the middle

77
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:52,080
Speaker 1: of a pandemic, a double pandemic of a disease and

78
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:57,560
Speaker 1: draconian authoritarian lockdowns from the disease that do not work.

79
00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:00,919
Speaker 1: If Governor Ron DeSantis says it, I can say it.

80
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:06,960
Speaker 1: Censor that social media platforms. I'm on radio. What now,

81
00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:11,679
Speaker 1: Governor Ron De Santis is right. I'm right they did

82
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:16,880
Speaker 1: not work. These lockdowns were a failure. But let me

83
00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:20,120
Speaker 1: get back to white supremacy here for a moment. I

84
00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:22,800
Speaker 1: want to read you this isn't the Military Times, right,

85
00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:26,080
Speaker 1: which you know obviously focuses on defense issues and United

86
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:30,720
Speaker 1: States Arms Services, and it's about Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin.

87
00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:33,360
Speaker 1: I actually remember I was in Bagdad years ago and

88
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:36,320
Speaker 1: I was part of a briefing. He wouldn't remember me.

89
00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:39,320
Speaker 1: I was interchangeable with all the other guys walking around

90
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:41,200
Speaker 1: dressed like they were on a camping trip. What are

91
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:43,960
Speaker 1: you guys doing here? Oh? You're those guys, right, I

92
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:48,520
Speaker 1: was one of those in the war zone. But you know,

93
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:52,080
Speaker 1: I sat down, I briefed him. I remember thinking that

94
00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:55,400
Speaker 1: this guy had the kind of command presence among a

95
00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:58,120
Speaker 1: lot of other senior folks that he probably had a

96
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:04,040
Speaker 1: future in politics. But so I remember General Austin, and

97
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:07,560
Speaker 1: now Military Times writing he's now the Secretary of Defense,

98
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:11,440
Speaker 1: as you know, and he's called on quote Services to

99
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:16,760
Speaker 1: conduct a sixty day standdown on the issue of extremism

100
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:20,800
Speaker 1: in the military, prompted by the January sixth attack on

101
00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:24,480
Speaker 1: the Capitol and subsequent reports of active duty and former

102
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:29,080
Speaker 1: service members attending a rally calling to overturn the twenty

103
00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:32,719
Speaker 1: twenty election and the riot that ensued. Hold on a

104
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:35,760
Speaker 1: second look, look what they This is a perfect example

105
00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:39,200
Speaker 1: of what I'm talking about. We gotta do a whole standout,

106
00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:41,919
Speaker 1: we gotta do a hot wash, we gotta do a

107
00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:45,760
Speaker 1: after action report. We have to do a review of

108
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:52,080
Speaker 1: white nationalist or white supremacist extremism in the military. And

109
00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:53,839
Speaker 1: then they when they go to describe what we're talking

110
00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:57,040
Speaker 1: about here, it's people who attended a rally to overturn

111
00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:59,640
Speaker 1: the twenty twenty election. I know people who were at

112
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:03,200
Speaker 1: the rally in DC on January sixth, and they were

113
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:06,400
Speaker 1: there because they believe that there was a need for

114
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:10,720
Speaker 1: election results, for the argument over election results to be

115
00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:13,880
Speaker 1: had in the United States Congress, for the presentation of evidence,

116
00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:17,120
Speaker 1: and they thought that that was within this system and

117
00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:18,920
Speaker 1: the right thing to do. They really believe that there

118
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,760
Speaker 1: had been a stolen election. I know many people still

119
00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:24,440
Speaker 1: believe that there was a stolen election. That doesn't make

120
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:27,440
Speaker 1: them white supremacists, has nothing to do with it. The

121
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:30,920
Speaker 1: same way that the Capitol Hill riot wasn't a white

122
00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:34,400
Speaker 1: supremacist riot. But you see how now they take this

123
00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:39,000
Speaker 1: action and some of the individuals involved and everybody who's

124
00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:45,080
Speaker 1: even vaguely ideologically associated with them, including thousands and thousands

125
00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:47,880
Speaker 1: of people. They estimate eight hundred people storm Capitol Hill.

126
00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:50,240
Speaker 1: There were at least one hundred thousand people in DC

127
00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:53,680
Speaker 1: on that day, So it's about one percent maybe, and

128
00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:56,120
Speaker 1: I know some people say it was much larger than that.

129
00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:59,440
Speaker 1: So about one percent of the people gathered actually broke

130
00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:03,320
Speaker 1: the law and did something wrong. Everybody else what they did.

131
00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 1: You can disagree with how they view the election, but

132
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:10,040
Speaker 1: they are completely within their rights, and I support their

133
00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:13,600
Speaker 1: right to lawfully protests and have their voices heard in

134
00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:18,280
Speaker 1: our nation's capital. This is very straightforward. This is about principle.

135
00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:20,880
Speaker 1: But look what they did. They're calling here for former

136
00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:25,040
Speaker 1: service members, quote attending a rally, calling to overturn the

137
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:30,400
Speaker 1: twenty twenty election. Attendance at the rally is cause for suspicion.

138
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,480
Speaker 1: That's all you have to do. If you win, if

139
00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:37,959
Speaker 1: you engaged in lawful protest, you now if you're a

140
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:40,839
Speaker 1: former military, if you're current military, for sure, you are

141
00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:44,160
Speaker 1: now somebody that maybe can't be trusted you're an insurrectionist.

142
00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:47,840
Speaker 1: This is what they say. This is what we're told.

143
00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:53,720
Speaker 1: And the guidance from Austin is as follows. Quote. It

144
00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:57,960
Speaker 1: wasn't a it wasn't just a blithe go talk to

145
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:01,800
Speaker 1: your people. Of Austin's direction, the service secretaries and Joint chiefs.

146
00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:04,280
Speaker 1: He was very clear he wants commands to take the

147
00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:07,880
Speaker 1: necessary time to speak with troops about the scope of

148
00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:10,640
Speaker 1: this problem and get a sense from them about what

149
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:14,120
Speaker 1: they're seeing at their level. Do you think that some uh,

150
00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,920
Speaker 1: some kind of you know, wimpy left wing bureaucrat type,

151
00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:19,679
Speaker 1: which they exist everywhere, There are those people, even in

152
00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:23,040
Speaker 1: the military. H Do you do you think that they're

153
00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:26,480
Speaker 1: going to see somebody with a MAGA flag over their bunk?

154
00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:28,480
Speaker 1: You know? Do you think that they're going to see

155
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:31,199
Speaker 1: somebody who still so you know, thinks that the GADS

156
00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:33,520
Speaker 1: didn't flag as a cool design from history and they

157
00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:36,480
Speaker 1: want to and maybe they get reported. Just give it time,

158
00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:42,680
Speaker 1: Just give it time. Um. This is this is really

159
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:48,439
Speaker 1: upsetting to see because you can understand why, why this

160
00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:51,240
Speaker 1: is going to get worse, Why are they doing this

161
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:56,440
Speaker 1: white supremacy in the military. Uh, this is all all

162
00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:58,280
Speaker 1: of a sudden we've discovered this problem because of the

163
00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:01,840
Speaker 1: January sixth riot. That's what they're saying. This is political.

164
00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:05,760
Speaker 1: I've never met a white supremacist. I mean I point

165
00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:07,880
Speaker 1: this out to people I have met the hottest terrorists

166
00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:10,760
Speaker 1: I have met, you know, people of other extremist ideologies.

167
00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:13,120
Speaker 1: And I'm not saying there aren't white supremacists. You always

168
00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:15,120
Speaker 1: have to you always have to establish these things that

169
00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:17,679
Speaker 1: every sane person knows. Of course there are white supremacists,

170
00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:23,520
Speaker 1: There are evil racists. Are they powerful in this country.

171
00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:28,080
Speaker 1: They're the most and rightly so maligned people in all

172
00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:31,720
Speaker 1: of American society. I mean, you won't be able to

173
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:34,520
Speaker 1: get a job, to rent, or buy a home, to

174
00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:36,400
Speaker 1: to be on the internet. I mean, you know, you're

175
00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:40,200
Speaker 1: you're a target for everybody. You're a white supremacist, an

176
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:42,720
Speaker 1: actual white supremacist in the real sense of the term.

177
00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:46,760
Speaker 1: But that's not what this is about. We've already got

178
00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:51,280
Speaker 1: that problem is contained and controlled. They're they're losers. They're

179
00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:53,960
Speaker 1: trying to expand the concept of white supremacy to include

180
00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:57,400
Speaker 1: people who attend and by I'm reading you from this article,

181
00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:02,880
Speaker 1: attended the rally on January six didn't break any laws,

182
00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:04,800
Speaker 1: didn't go to the capitol, but if you attended the

183
00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:10,599
Speaker 1: rally rally, you're suspect. You know, this is what authoritarian

184
00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:14,640
Speaker 1: regimes do. They have to cleanse wrong thing from within

185
00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:19,800
Speaker 1: major institutions like the like the military, and like the

186
00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:26,720
Speaker 1: federal bureaucracy. Military Times owned poland Quote has shown that, anecdotally,

187
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:30,360
Speaker 1: oh that sounds really official, more than one third of

188
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:33,800
Speaker 1: active duty troops and more than half of minority service

189
00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:40,280
Speaker 1: members have witnessed signs of white supremacy in their colleagues. Further,

190
00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:45,280
Speaker 1: survey respondents ranked white nationalism as a bigger national security

191
00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:50,480
Speaker 1: domestic terror as a bigger national security threat domestic than

192
00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:55,719
Speaker 1: domestic terrorist groups affiliated with Islam. For instance, events of

193
00:11:55,800 --> 00:12:00,199
Speaker 1: January six served as a wake up call. It it's

194
00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:03,960
Speaker 1: amazing to see this. I mean, you're telling me that,

195
00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:10,079
Speaker 1: let's be very clear, because of this ideology of wokeness,

196
00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:13,000
Speaker 1: actually that's out there that sees whites. Of wokeness means

197
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:15,520
Speaker 1: the white supremacy is all around us, and it's everywhere,

198
00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:18,160
Speaker 1: and we have to constantly combat it. They've created this

199
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:22,840
Speaker 1: omnipresent white supremacy. As a result of that, you have

200
00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:27,880
Speaker 1: service members here saying they've quote witnessed signs of white supremacy.

201
00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:33,560
Speaker 1: Half of minority service members say they've seen that. Really, like,

202
00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:39,120
Speaker 1: what where? What counts as that? And I really mean that.

203
00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:43,080
Speaker 1: I'd like to know. Is it who gets promoted and

204
00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:45,120
Speaker 1: who doesn't? Is that? Is that the kind of white

205
00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:48,000
Speaker 1: supremacy we're talking about, because remember how the definitions expanded.

206
00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:51,360
Speaker 1: Or is it somebody who actually you know, is a

207
00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:53,559
Speaker 1: member of some kind of white power society and has

208
00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:57,160
Speaker 1: a swastika tattoo on his knuckles. Which one is it?

209
00:12:57,160 --> 00:13:00,240
Speaker 1: Because there's a whole lot of difference between those two things.

210
00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:03,640
Speaker 1: But you see, this is a power This is a

211
00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:06,920
Speaker 1: power move and the chilling effect on conservatism on the

212
00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:10,080
Speaker 1: right in general from pretending there's this huge threat of

213
00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:13,960
Speaker 1: white supremacy. It's everywhere, It's even in our military. This

214
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:18,800
Speaker 1: is a hysterical lie, but it's a very very potent one.

215
00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:22,960
Speaker 1: If you want to keep people fearful and if you

216
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:25,080
Speaker 1: want to make sure that you can get away with

217
00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:29,400
Speaker 1: whatever mechanisms of control you decide to deploy. This is

218
00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:31,959
Speaker 1: happening within our own military, and it's happening from a

219
00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:37,400
Speaker 1: top down, from the Secretary Defense. This is the buck

221
00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:45,400
Speaker 1: You know, I have attended many of these prayer breakfasts

222
00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:48,480
Speaker 1: over the years, with a nation of war and struggle

223
00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:52,160
Speaker 1: and strife, a nation of peace and prosperity, a nation,

224
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:55,640
Speaker 1: though always in prayer. But we know this time is different.

225
00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:58,560
Speaker 1: Over four hundred thousand of our fellow Americans have lost

226
00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:02,000
Speaker 1: their lives to a deadly virus. Millions are out of work.

227
00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:05,840
Speaker 1: We see long lines for food at food banks that

228
00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:09,800
Speaker 1: stretch for miles. We hear the call for racial justice,

229
00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:13,400
Speaker 1: some four hundred years in the making, and we know

230
00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:18,720
Speaker 1: the dream, and more importantly, the reality of justice for all,

231
00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:23,520
Speaker 1: cannot be deferred any longer. We see the exidential threat

232
00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:26,920
Speaker 1: of climate crisis that poses to our planet and everywhere

233
00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:31,880
Speaker 1: we turn, with more severe floods, stronger hurricanes, more intense wildfires.

234
00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:34,920
Speaker 1: We just have to open our eyes. We've just witnessed

235
00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:39,920
Speaker 1: images that we've never imagined, images that now we'll never forget.

236
00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:44,040
Speaker 1: A violent assault the US capital, on our assault on

237
00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:47,640
Speaker 1: our democracy, on our capitol, a violent attack that threatened

238
00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:50,160
Speaker 1: lives and took lives. And we know now we must

239
00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:56,040
Speaker 1: confront and defeat political extremism. White supremacy and domestic terrorism,

240
00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:58,760
Speaker 1: White supremacy and domestic terrorist. This is Joe Biden on

241
00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:03,160
Speaker 1: a prayer breakfast. This is the urgent national security threat

242
00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:08,880
Speaker 1: defeating white supremacy and domestic terrorism. Um, okay, what does

243
00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:12,720
Speaker 1: that look like? Where is this threat? Just show me where?

244
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:15,960
Speaker 1: Where are all these white supremacists? I asked the question.

245
00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:18,360
Speaker 1: I never get an answer. Where are they? But there's

246
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:23,320
Speaker 1: some some compound of brainless, toothless losers somewhere. Who are

247
00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:26,440
Speaker 1: you know, thinking that there there's some kind of you know,

248
00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:29,440
Speaker 1: neo Nazi cult that's going to take over America. Yeah,

249
00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:32,120
Speaker 1: I mean they're they're disgusting and everyone hates them and

250
00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:36,120
Speaker 1: they're ostracized from society. Where are the white supremacists that

251
00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:40,000
Speaker 1: have infiltrated all the institutions and that are speaking openly

252
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:45,280
Speaker 1: about this and that are pushing where Well, it depends,

253
00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:48,400
Speaker 1: of course, on how you define the term. And increasingly

254
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:51,520
Speaker 1: what you see is that it's defined so broadly that

255
00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:56,160
Speaker 1: it can mean whatever whatever racial justice issue. The left

256
00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:58,800
Speaker 1: wants to wants to really put a lot of a

257
00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:00,840
Speaker 1: lot of focus on all of a sud They start using,

258
00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:04,760
Speaker 1: you know, the WUS term. They start throwing it around.

259
00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:07,119
Speaker 1: They start saying, oh, this is we need to dismantle

260
00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:11,400
Speaker 1: systems of white supremacy. Like what, where? Where is this?

261
00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:14,080
Speaker 1: What does it even really mean? Think about the term.

262
00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:16,880
Speaker 1: I mean, it's a very Remember remember what they did

263
00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:20,440
Speaker 1: with racism. Racism is bad. We all know that racism

264
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:23,160
Speaker 1: is immoral, and this is just a this is a

265
00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:28,280
Speaker 1: universal truth. Racism is immoral. They started calling everything racism

266
00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:30,280
Speaker 1: back in the nineties, remember this, And they were there

267
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:32,200
Speaker 1: actually because we had comedians then it could make jokes.

268
00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:34,200
Speaker 1: They would make jokes about how everything was racist. Right.

269
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:37,840
Speaker 1: There was in the movie PCU, which is still a

270
00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:39,680
Speaker 1: great watch if you want to go back and check

271
00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:42,640
Speaker 1: it out. But there's a there's a group of of

272
00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:48,560
Speaker 1: I guess you'd call it woke, you know, woke campus activists,

273
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:50,880
Speaker 1: and one of the one of the fellows is African American.

274
00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:54,120
Speaker 1: He's walking around and he's, you know, his question is

275
00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:56,960
Speaker 1: why is the chalk white and why is the blackboard black? Right,

276
00:16:56,960 --> 00:16:59,600
Speaker 1: I mean, this is racism and that that's one of

277
00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:02,640
Speaker 1: the you know, and he goes, right, you've seen it

278
00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:03,760
Speaker 1: in the movie. I mean, we used to kind of

279
00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:06,040
Speaker 1: be aware that people would call things racist. That's actually

280
00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:08,920
Speaker 1: not racist, has nothing to do with racism. And over

281
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:12,040
Speaker 1: time that accusation, they used it so much for purposes

282
00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:14,600
Speaker 1: of power right the left, the Democrats used this against

283
00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:17,359
Speaker 1: any of their perceived political enemies that it started to

284
00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:20,800
Speaker 1: lose its sting and started to lose its ability to

285
00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:24,040
Speaker 1: put people in fear. It became just a kind of

286
00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:27,719
Speaker 1: an absurdity. The accusation without any underlying truth, was just

287
00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:31,760
Speaker 1: it was a smear, an obvious pathetic smear. So what

288
00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:34,960
Speaker 1: they do now they've up, Now they've gone to white supremacy. Oh,

289
00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:38,280
Speaker 1: let's see, that's even it's even scarier that conjures up.

290
00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:41,600
Speaker 1: You know, neo nazis doing violence to people based on

291
00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:43,639
Speaker 1: skin color. We have to fight them right away, and

292
00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:47,840
Speaker 1: we should. But that's not what they're referring to. They're

293
00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:50,760
Speaker 1: they're not referring to the character you know in American

294
00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:54,960
Speaker 1: history X. They're referring to college admissions that don't have

295
00:17:57,080 --> 00:18:00,840
Speaker 1: awoke enough philosophy of who gets to go to the school. Well,

296
00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:04,399
Speaker 1: that seems like quite an important change in terminology, isn't it.

297
00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:09,400
Speaker 1: You're listening to the Buck Sexton Show podcast. Make sure

298
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:12,040
Speaker 1: you subscribe to the podcast on the iHeart Radio app

299
00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:15,120
Speaker 1: or wherever you get your podcasts. Yeah, this is a

300
00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:21,200
Speaker 1: deliberate war against everybody whose views would be considered traditionally American.

301
00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:25,680
Speaker 1: And consider they have on the Intelligence Committee somebody who

302
00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:28,760
Speaker 1: the FBI has told them had a multi year relationship

303
00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:32,159
Speaker 1: with the Chinese communist spy. Now that's not really a problem,

304
00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:35,160
Speaker 1: because after all, Communist China is not really a bad country.

305
00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:37,080
Speaker 1: When you go down the stuff and you begin to

306
00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:41,879
Speaker 1: realize these people operate in a different universe. What happened,

307
00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:45,400
Speaker 1: I think was the Trump scared them for the first time.

308
00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:48,800
Speaker 1: They saw all of their dreams, all of their hopes disappearing,

309
00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:52,720
Speaker 1: and their reaction has been one of ferocity, which I

310
00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:56,000
Speaker 1: find frightening. I mean, I worry for anybody who's openly

311
00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:59,440
Speaker 1: publicly in favor of traditional America, because you just don't

312
00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:02,920
Speaker 1: know what the left is going to do. They're gonna

313
00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:06,280
Speaker 1: attack you, They're gonna make you suffer, They're gonna try

314
00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:08,920
Speaker 1: to ruin you, try to destroy you. I mean Newt

315
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:12,880
Speaker 1: Gingrich sees it is. It is now clear that there

316
00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:16,719
Speaker 1: are obvious truths that you you speak at your peril

317
00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:22,320
Speaker 1: whole range of issues, and the Left doesn't even really

318
00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:26,320
Speaker 1: bother to make arguments anymore. Their arguments in the past

319
00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:28,320
Speaker 1: were weak, but they figured if they yelled them enough,

320
00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:33,479
Speaker 1: and if they control enough institutions, they'd be able to

321
00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:38,359
Speaker 1: get what they want even if logic, facts, reason and

322
00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:42,000
Speaker 1: everything else wasn't on their side. That's that's the way

323
00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:44,159
Speaker 1: that the game used to be played. Now they're just

324
00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:47,800
Speaker 1: saying do this because we say so. They're not even

325
00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:50,680
Speaker 1: really telling you why you should do the thing. And

326
00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:55,160
Speaker 1: I think that the Left has found in the COVID lockdown, specifically,

327
00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:59,720
Speaker 1: the perfect vessel for their dream of total societal control.

328
00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:03,040
Speaker 1: They also have this with climate change. But climate change,

329
00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:06,199
Speaker 1: as much as they try to force the urgency of

330
00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:09,520
Speaker 1: the climate crisis and it's existential, as much as they

331
00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:13,840
Speaker 1: try to convince everybody of that, well adjusted normal people

332
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:16,320
Speaker 1: are like, even if they believe in climate changes, they go,

333
00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:18,160
Speaker 1: I mean, come on, it's not the world's not gonna

334
00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:20,480
Speaker 1: end tomorrow. Let's catch our breath here. It's not gonna

335
00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:22,800
Speaker 1: end in five years. It's not gonna end in fifty

336
00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:24,600
Speaker 1: And if it ends in five hundred years, how much

337
00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:26,320
Speaker 1: do I really care? I mean, that's that's kind of

338
00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:27,959
Speaker 1: where a lot of people are on this one. How

339
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:29,960
Speaker 1: do I even know, who will even know what five

340
00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:32,399
Speaker 1: hundred years from now is going to be like. But

341
00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:36,240
Speaker 1: with COVID, because we have had a lot of people,

342
00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:38,680
Speaker 1: a lot of older people who have died from from

343
00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:45,159
Speaker 1: this respiratory virus, they were able to get the crisis

344
00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:49,440
Speaker 1: and the panic and the anxiety at a level where

345
00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:51,320
Speaker 1: they could begin to remake society. I mean, they could

346
00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:55,199
Speaker 1: tell you how you can breathe. That's now all a

347
00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:57,800
Speaker 1: part of this too. And I've been walking you through

348
00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:00,720
Speaker 1: because I know what they're gonna do. You know, they

349
00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:03,480
Speaker 1: have to cover up now we saw something we said,

350
00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:08,680
Speaker 1: hold on a second. Fauci says two masks are better

351
00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:12,680
Speaker 1: than one, and then Auster Holmes says, actually, two masks

352
00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:16,120
Speaker 1: are worse than one, and then Fauci says there's no

353
00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:19,680
Speaker 1: data to support wearing two masks, And then people say, well,

354
00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:24,120
Speaker 1: hold on a second. If two masks isn't better than one,

355
00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:27,240
Speaker 1: why that makes me think that maybe we got to

356
00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:29,159
Speaker 1: look at this more and can we even have a

357
00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:32,760
Speaker 1: discussion about this. So then Fauci has to change it

358
00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:36,880
Speaker 1: up again to say, well, the CDC may soon tell

359
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:40,360
Speaker 1: people two masks are better than one. We gotta get

360
00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:42,840
Speaker 1: the data, and let me tell you, they're going to

361
00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:46,600
Speaker 1: come up with some bullcrap anecdotal study about you know,

362
00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:48,880
Speaker 1: someone says that they were doing two and someone else

363
00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:51,080
Speaker 1: said one, and it's not going to be an actual

364
00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:54,200
Speaker 1: scientific study at all. And then all of a sudden

365
00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:56,760
Speaker 1: they'll make its way under the CDC website and then

366
00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:59,000
Speaker 1: the CDC we all have to listen to. Has the

367
00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:02,359
Speaker 1: CDC saved lot of us? Can I just ask you

368
00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:04,720
Speaker 1: think about that for a second. Has the CDC saved

369
00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:06,840
Speaker 1: a lot of lives in the COVID pandemic? I mean,

370
00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:09,920
Speaker 1: this is there, this is their D Day invasion, right

371
00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:13,879
Speaker 1: This COVID pandemic is the CDC's moment show us what

372
00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:16,359
Speaker 1: they're why they're funded, what they're really made of. You

373
00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:18,560
Speaker 1: know what they've done. They messed up testing in the

374
00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:21,520
Speaker 1: earliest days, when it was absolutely essential to figure out

375
00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:23,880
Speaker 1: what we were really dealing with. They completely botched testing.

376
00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:28,480
Speaker 1: They've changed the guidance many many times. And ultimately what

377
00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:31,720
Speaker 1: they've told this is, you know, you should probably block

378
00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:34,320
Speaker 1: down and just avoid life while this virus is out

379
00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:37,040
Speaker 1: there as much as you know you can stomach and

380
00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:39,400
Speaker 1: or as much as other people will make you stomach

381
00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:44,160
Speaker 1: and wash your hands and wear a mask. Thanks CDC. Wow,

382
00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:49,400
Speaker 1: amazing stuff from them. And here's Foucci. Though, as I've

383
00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:52,000
Speaker 1: been telling you, setting the groundwork, you're gonna you're gonna

384
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:55,840
Speaker 1: start to see businesses that say one mask required, two

385
00:22:55,920 --> 00:23:01,680
Speaker 1: masks preferred. It's gonna happen play four in the meantime,

386
00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:05,600
Speaker 1: as I often get asked, should you be wearing two

387
00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:11,280
Speaker 1: masks or one mask? And I say, there's no recommendation. However,

388
00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:14,400
Speaker 1: there are many people who take the common sense approach.

389
00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:17,960
Speaker 1: If you're talking about a physical barrier, and as the

390
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:21,520
Speaker 1: CDC recommends, you want at least two layers within the

391
00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:24,800
Speaker 1: mask as a physical barrier, and you feel maybe more

392
00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:28,080
Speaker 1: of a physical barrier would be better, there's nothing wrong

393
00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:32,920
Speaker 1: with people wearing two masks. I often myself wear two masks.

394
00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:37,920
Speaker 1: Can we make a general recommendation that doesn't have scientific

395
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:42,480
Speaker 1: basis yet? No, But when the science comes along and

396
00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:45,399
Speaker 1: tells us that it is better or not, then you

397
00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:49,240
Speaker 1: will see a recommendation being made by the CDC. They're

398
00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:51,800
Speaker 1: going to manufacture something and they're going to say that

399
00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:54,439
Speaker 1: the science is settled, and now we know that two

400
00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:57,800
Speaker 1: masks are better than one and it's not amazing because

401
00:23:57,800 --> 00:23:59,560
Speaker 1: how have they not known that all along? The mask

402
00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:03,840
Speaker 1: science is so clear, We're we're figuring this out just now. No,

403
00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:06,680
Speaker 1: why are we going to the two masking? Why? Why

404
00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:08,760
Speaker 1: did I know that they would say this? Go back?

405
00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:10,280
Speaker 1: You know this, listen to the show? How did I

406
00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:11,760
Speaker 1: know that they were going to tell us two masks?

407
00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:13,879
Speaker 1: And then ninety five masks are really what we need

408
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:19,320
Speaker 1: to be doing because the policy of mandating people wearing

409
00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:25,400
Speaker 1: masks in certain situations didn't stop the damn virus. It didn't.

410
00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:28,359
Speaker 1: And I know people say, oh, but what about you

411
00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:30,040
Speaker 1: know when you breathe through it everything, and go okay,

412
00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:33,399
Speaker 1: Well people can't wear it all the time, and so

413
00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:35,240
Speaker 1: there's a lot of spread that's going on all the

414
00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:38,200
Speaker 1: time anyway. And if you get the virus on Wednesday

415
00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:40,240
Speaker 1: but didn't get it on Tuesday, and that plays out

416
00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:42,480
Speaker 1: across the whole country, what difference does it really make?

417
00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:48,280
Speaker 1: But you know, they people, people are incapable of actually

418
00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:51,679
Speaker 1: thinking this through for themselves. And going back to my

419
00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:54,240
Speaker 1: initial premise here about about traditional values being able to

420
00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:57,040
Speaker 1: speak about these things, it is essential that we actually

421
00:24:57,040 --> 00:25:01,359
Speaker 1: have a public debate about masks. I would I would

422
00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:05,880
Speaker 1: love give me any blue check MD PhD. Oh, I'm

423
00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:07,960
Speaker 1: doctor so and so, and I go on I go

424
00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:10,840
Speaker 1: on MSNBC, and I know love to have a debate.

425
00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:12,800
Speaker 1: And I'm just some guy, just some guy who sits

426
00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:15,800
Speaker 1: around as a radio show, writes some stuff, you know,

427
00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:17,280
Speaker 1: used to work for the government, used to be a

428
00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:22,240
Speaker 1: little government stooge, And uh yeah, I would love to

429
00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:24,720
Speaker 1: have the debate with them because I could just use

430
00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:29,639
Speaker 1: reason and logic and annihilate the stupid crap that they say,

431
00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:31,800
Speaker 1: like it's all it's all so obvious that we should

432
00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:34,359
Speaker 1: all be worrying about. It was so obvious that the

433
00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:37,880
Speaker 1: person is now the biggest mask advocate twelve months ago

434
00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:40,440
Speaker 1: was saying, come on, it doesn't really do anything. That's

435
00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:44,240
Speaker 1: without She was saying, we all know it. Now, what

436
00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:48,360
Speaker 1: exactly is different? They'll say, oh, we didn't know about this. No, no, no, no, no,

437
00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:50,960
Speaker 1: that's all just blah blah blah blah blah. That's all nonsense.

438
00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:55,439
Speaker 1: But they won't deal with the reality here, which is

439
00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:57,560
Speaker 1: that you had a panic, and you had people in

440
00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:00,680
Speaker 1: patent positions of power, and you had governed authorities. The

441
00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:03,200
Speaker 1: people were looking to to save them, and they had

442
00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:05,199
Speaker 1: to tell you something, and they had to tell you

443
00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:06,840
Speaker 1: something that even if it didn't stop it, then the

444
00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:08,359
Speaker 1: answer would be, well, you didn't do enough of the

445
00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:12,360
Speaker 1: thing I told you. It's your fault. That's where we are.

446
00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:19,159
Speaker 1: And so I believe that dissent on a matter, on

447
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:22,720
Speaker 1: a matter of national importance health policy like this, that

448
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:24,840
Speaker 1: is a traditional American value. We should be able to

449
00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:29,240
Speaker 1: have this conversation. We can't. We can't. Shouldn't shouldn't I

450
00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:32,560
Speaker 1: be scared? Shouldn't I be concerned about the prospect of

451
00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:38,280
Speaker 1: being exposed on this issue? Yeah, have one of those

452
00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:41,520
Speaker 1: blue check doctors, you know, have a debate, go on

453
00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:45,240
Speaker 1: TV live and it'd be meek be Alex Barnson, be

454
00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:47,919
Speaker 1: any number of people to look at this issue critically

455
00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:51,920
Speaker 1: and explain to me how the science tells you that

456
00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:54,080
Speaker 1: it's essential that you have that mask pulled up all

457
00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:56,000
Speaker 1: the time on an airplane with one hundred and fifty

458
00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:58,280
Speaker 1: people on it, sitting side by side, which is what

459
00:26:58,320 --> 00:26:59,600
Speaker 1: we do now. Remember how we're going to have a

460
00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:02,359
Speaker 1: separation that all fell apart. Now we just airlines need

461
00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:04,800
Speaker 1: to make money. So you sit side by side and

462
00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:07,000
Speaker 1: then people sit there and I'd say for at least

463
00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:11,880
Speaker 1: half the flight are breathing in open air with their

464
00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:14,640
Speaker 1: mask down because they're drinking, they're eating, they're doing other things.

465
00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:17,200
Speaker 1: You know, people have the mask fall down below their nose.

466
00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:19,680
Speaker 1: The nose is actually a major area for the spread

467
00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:22,720
Speaker 1: of the for the expulsion of the virus. So yeah,

468
00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:24,679
Speaker 1: explained the signs to me of how that's all. But

469
00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:28,560
Speaker 1: it limits it, It limits it. I mean how much

470
00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:32,160
Speaker 1: how much? If you know, if you're on a plane

471
00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:35,400
Speaker 1: for four hours and everyone's breathing, the breathing the air,

472
00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:37,960
Speaker 1: you know, and open how much better is it with

473
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:40,640
Speaker 1: the mask on for thirty percent? Then with the rest?

474
00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:43,040
Speaker 1: I mean, you get infected, you're infected. It doesn't matter

475
00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:45,800
Speaker 1: how much exposure you had. It doesn't matter, you know,

476
00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:49,440
Speaker 1: how long the exposure was. You're infected. You're infected. But

477
00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:51,640
Speaker 1: they don't really think about it, Jo, We can't even

478
00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:54,680
Speaker 1: have a normal conversation about that. We can't have normal

479
00:27:54,680 --> 00:28:00,720
Speaker 1: conversation with the left about males playing female sport. The

480
00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:05,359
Speaker 1: ACO you put out a statement yesterday that said there's

481
00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:09,200
Speaker 1: no advantage of men over women in sports, no advantage,

482
00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:11,879
Speaker 1: and then this is shown because there are women who

483
00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:15,920
Speaker 1: can still compete against some of the men. How many

484
00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:17,720
Speaker 1: videos do we have to see of some like six

485
00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:20,560
Speaker 1: foot four guy who weighs two hundred and thirty pounds

486
00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:23,119
Speaker 1: who's playing women's field hockey and as all of a sudden,

487
00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:25,280
Speaker 1: the national champion and like the best in the world.

488
00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:28,720
Speaker 1: Before we go, oh, I think I think there's an advantage.

489
00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:32,040
Speaker 1: I think there's an advantage. Every guy listening to this

490
00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:36,000
Speaker 1: knows if you if you were a a mediocre high

491
00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:40,880
Speaker 1: school male athlete, you know, a mediocre one, which is

492
00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:43,120
Speaker 1: how at best I think how it described my own

493
00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:47,720
Speaker 1: athletic exploits as you would have been a probably a

494
00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:53,000
Speaker 1: two or three sport All American at in NCAA women's sports.

495
00:28:53,600 --> 00:28:56,000
Speaker 1: This is the truth. I mean, if you want to

496
00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:57,360
Speaker 1: want an example of this, you I mean, you have

497
00:28:57,360 --> 00:28:59,640
Speaker 1: to have a certain level of proficiency. But the like

498
00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:03,560
Speaker 1: men fourteen year old national soccer team beat the best

499
00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:06,840
Speaker 1: female professional soccer teams in the world. They're fourteen and

500
00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:09,480
Speaker 1: beating the best women of the world. I mean, is

501
00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:12,120
Speaker 1: there's no debate about this. Ah, but you see that

502
00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:14,400
Speaker 1: statements even more true than I meant it to be.

503
00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:16,920
Speaker 1: They don't allow you to have the debate about this

504
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:19,840
Speaker 1: because the facts are not in debate. It's really a

505
00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:23,000
Speaker 1: question of power, and they have the power to silence

506
00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:25,880
Speaker 1: you and make you believe things and say things that

507
00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:30,800
Speaker 1: are not true. You're in the freedom hunt. Thanks for

508
00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:34,080
Speaker 1: listening to The Buck Sexton Show podcast. Get the latest

509
00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:38,720
Speaker 1: from Buck at buck sexton dot com. The job of

510
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,240
Speaker 1: a leader is to take on that, to take on

511
00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:44,520
Speaker 1: the grief in order to save people's jobs, to get

512
00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:47,600
Speaker 1: kids back in school, and really to ultimately save a

513
00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:50,600
Speaker 1: lot of lives, because I think one the virus responds

514
00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:53,840
Speaker 1: is more effective when it's targeted at the vulnerable population,

515
00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:56,960
Speaker 1: which we did do aggressively. But I also think we've

516
00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:59,720
Speaker 1: saved the livelihoods of so many people. I think you'll

517
00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:03,560
Speaker 1: have less suicide desks, less drug abuse desks, less deaths

518
00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:06,880
Speaker 1: of despair in Florida because we were open, and I

519
00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:09,239
Speaker 1: think a lot of the lockdowners lost sight of that.

520
00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:12,640
Speaker 1: We are less than the national average for per capita

521
00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:16,240
Speaker 1: COVID mortality. Twenty five states are higher than us, and

522
00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:19,640
Speaker 1: yet as you said, our unemployment rate is much less

523
00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:22,520
Speaker 1: than the national average. We have kids in school, and

524
00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:26,520
Speaker 1: in December we had three hundred and thirty million dollars

525
00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:30,640
Speaker 1: more in revenue than was projected because people are coming

526
00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:33,120
Speaker 1: here and they understand that Florida's opened in a place

527
00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:36,120
Speaker 1: where they can pursue their dreams. Rohn descantists the only

528
00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:41,040
Speaker 1: political hero of the entire COVID pandemic, really, the only

529
00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:43,960
Speaker 1: person who has been getting it done despite all the critics,

530
00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:46,720
Speaker 1: despite all the pressure. And I know I talk about

531
00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:48,360
Speaker 1: him a lot now. It's like it sounds like I'm

532
00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:50,440
Speaker 1: a member of the Rohn descent and maybe the captain

533
00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:53,840
Speaker 1: of the RHND descentists fan club these days. But look,

534
00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:57,320
Speaker 1: I don't know Ron, never met him, never talked to him.

535
00:30:57,520 --> 00:31:00,520
Speaker 1: It's not about anything other than results. And you look

536
00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:03,440
Speaker 1: at the results of his state. Maybe we could have

537
00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:07,680
Speaker 1: had many other places with much better results if we

538
00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:10,400
Speaker 1: were allowed to have the conversation. But to my earlier point,

539
00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:15,200
Speaker 1: we're not even We're not even given the freedom to

540
00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:18,440
Speaker 1: make our case anymore. I mean, what social media companies

541
00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:22,720
Speaker 1: have done about lockdowns and mask wearing is disgusting. They're

542
00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:26,600
Speaker 1: a bunch of little, petty moron totalitarians. And remember it's

543
00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:28,800
Speaker 1: not the people who, you know, the people that are

544
00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:31,400
Speaker 1: all about this. They're not the ones that are you

545
00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:34,000
Speaker 1: know that that that that founded the company. Usually they're

546
00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:37,040
Speaker 1: not the ones that are coming up with really complicated algorithms.

547
00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:39,080
Speaker 1: You know, they're outsourcing a lot of that stuff to

548
00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:41,000
Speaker 1: other people or people on H one b V's is

549
00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:44,280
Speaker 1: the little, the little totalitarians that work in these social

550
00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:46,920
Speaker 1: media companies. You know, they're they're they are working in

551
00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:49,920
Speaker 1: like the government relations office, they're working in the in

552
00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:53,200
Speaker 1: PR and marketing, in sales and you know, the soft

553
00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:56,640
Speaker 1: sciences parts of these companies. They're the ones that are yeah,

554
00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:59,440
Speaker 1: you know it's the it's the English Lit majors who

555
00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:03,800
Speaker 1: work at book and Google doing whatever they do. They're

556
00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:05,480
Speaker 1: they're the ones that want you to be shut up.

557
00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:07,560
Speaker 1: They're the ones that want you to be unable to

558
00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:10,680
Speaker 1: actually have a conversation. So remember that and and that

559
00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:13,560
Speaker 1: there are real they are real downsides this. I mean,

560
00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:16,960
Speaker 1: you know, today you had the mayor of Chicago, Lori Lightfoot,

561
00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:23,120
Speaker 1: who was basically pleading with the teachers' unions like you

562
00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:27,800
Speaker 1: you're being unreasonable, this is not right. You're making kids suffer.

563
00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:30,800
Speaker 1: You're supposed to go back to school. Now, think of

564
00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:34,200
Speaker 1: all the people in Chicago who are going and doing

565
00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:38,600
Speaker 1: their jobs. They're exposed to COVID. They they have, you know,

566
00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:41,080
Speaker 1: family members who are who are older and at risk,

567
00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:43,200
Speaker 1: or maybe they themselves are older and at risk, but

568
00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:47,200
Speaker 1: you know they're still living life. There's no risk free society,

569
00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:49,680
Speaker 1: and a society that promises you that it's risk free

570
00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:56,240
Speaker 1: is a nightmare. It is by definition totalitarian. It erases

571
00:32:56,360 --> 00:32:58,760
Speaker 1: all freedom. If it's going to make you truly free,

572
00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:01,160
Speaker 1: it will make all of your choice is for you.

573
00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:03,400
Speaker 1: There are a lot of people and I think it's

574
00:33:03,480 --> 00:33:08,400
Speaker 1: just deep in their brains that's what they want, that's

575
00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:11,840
Speaker 1: what they prefer. They would rather be told what to

576
00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:15,160
Speaker 1: do all the time. They'd rather be told how they

577
00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:18,920
Speaker 1: can live their lives. By the way, I mentioned before

578
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:25,480
Speaker 1: the debates over men and women's sports, here's brand Paul

579
00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:30,480
Speaker 1: talking to the Education Secretary nominee, doctor Miguel Cardona about

580
00:33:30,480 --> 00:33:33,720
Speaker 1: boys playing girls sports in high school play sixteen So

581
00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:35,760
Speaker 1: you don't have a problem. Then with boys running in

582
00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:39,320
Speaker 1: the girls, track me, swimming me to name it, you're okay.

583
00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:43,239
Speaker 1: Then with boys competing with girls respectfully centered, I think

584
00:33:43,240 --> 00:33:45,640
Speaker 1: I answered the question. I believe schools should offer the

585
00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:49,760
Speaker 1: opportunity for students to engage in extracurricular activities. Even if

586
00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:51,880
Speaker 1: they're a transgender. I think that's their right, all right,

587
00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:54,960
Speaker 1: but a lot of us think that that's bizarre. You know,

588
00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:59,240
Speaker 1: I'm not very fair. Yeah, it isn't fair. It isn't.

589
00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:04,480
Speaker 1: But now it's now the left has gone beyond philosophical

590
00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:08,440
Speaker 1: fallacy and they want you to to not accept what

591
00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:12,440
Speaker 1: is true in the actual physical world. This isn't that

592
00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:16,279
Speaker 1: they just have bad ideas that are illogical and self contradictory,

593
00:34:16,360 --> 00:34:18,239
Speaker 1: though that's certainly very true of the left as well.

594
00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:22,200
Speaker 1: Now it's that guy who is six is sixty three

595
00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:25,160
Speaker 1: and you know, two hundred and fifty pounds, he's not

596
00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:27,640
Speaker 1: necessarily going to be stronger than all all the all

597
00:34:27,640 --> 00:34:31,120
Speaker 1: the females of his same of his same age. Then no,

598
00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:34,359
Speaker 1: that there might You know that there's no real advantage there. Well,

599
00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:36,920
Speaker 1: then why why break up mail and female sports in general?

600
00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:39,680
Speaker 1: What's the point does anyone on the left we want

601
00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:41,360
Speaker 1: to try to answer that? Why do we have a

602
00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:45,200
Speaker 1: men's and women's team, men's and women's teams? What's the

603
00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:47,600
Speaker 1: point of it? Because you know, it's fine, there's no

604
00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:51,840
Speaker 1: biological advantage. We all know this is a lie, but

605
00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:57,200
Speaker 1: they insist that you accept their lie. Why. It's about

606
00:34:57,200 --> 00:35:00,239
Speaker 1: a lot more than just transgender rights or transgender sports

607
00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:03,560
Speaker 1: or anything like that. It's about bend the knee or else,

608
00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:07,920
Speaker 1: bend the knee on something that you know is a

609
00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:12,600
Speaker 1: total fallacy. Once you've done at this time, they can

610
00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:15,240
Speaker 1: get you to do at other times. This is Buck's

611
00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:17,640
Speaker 1: first thoughts. The news you need to get for your

612
00:35:17,719 --> 00:35:20,480
Speaker 1: day in forty five minutes. Make sure you subscribe on

613
00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:25,080
Speaker 1: the iHeart app or wherever you get your podcasts. She

614
00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:30,480
Speaker 1: stays in leadership. Liz Cheney has beaten back a challenge

615
00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:33,759
Speaker 1: to her role in the United States Congress on the

616
00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:36,319
Speaker 1: GOP side of it. Pretty big win for her in

617
00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:39,080
Speaker 1: terms of the votes. What really happened here and what

618
00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:42,120
Speaker 1: is it telling us about the trajectory of the GOP

619
00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:45,080
Speaker 1: Right now, our friend Matt Schlap is back in the mix.

620
00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:48,800
Speaker 1: He is the chairman of the American Conservative Union. Mister Schlap,

621
00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:51,040
Speaker 1: good to have you, great to be with you, getting Buck,

622
00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:53,279
Speaker 1: So what do you make of this? First of all,

623
00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:56,920
Speaker 1: just for everyone listening, how did we get here? We're

624
00:35:56,920 --> 00:35:59,000
Speaker 1: all of a sudden in our Republicans are still trying

625
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:02,040
Speaker 1: to figure out what just happened with this election? And

626
00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:05,120
Speaker 1: now We've got Biden's inauguration, and now we're going after

627
00:36:05,160 --> 00:36:08,560
Speaker 1: Liz Cheney. What did she do? Tell everybody? In the

628
00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:13,120
Speaker 1: eyes of some within her own party, her sins were, well,

629
00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:18,399
Speaker 1: she voted to impeach President Trump, even though obviously he's

630
00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:22,040
Speaker 1: not the president anymore, and almost everybody's reading of the

631
00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:25,120
Speaker 1: Constitution is is that this is an abuse of the Constitution.

632
00:36:25,640 --> 00:36:27,640
Speaker 1: I think she was one of ten Republicans in the

633
00:36:27,680 --> 00:36:32,239
Speaker 1: House to support this, the most politicized impeachment we've ever seen.

634
00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:35,800
Speaker 1: In almost every impeachment's pretty politicized. So a lot of

635
00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:40,000
Speaker 1: anger were these Republicans who played into the politics of

636
00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:43,000
Speaker 1: Nancy Pelosi. And that's really what this was. This really

637
00:36:43,040 --> 00:36:44,840
Speaker 1: wasn't a question about do you like Trump? Do you

638
00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:47,880
Speaker 1: not like Trump? Do you like Trump's policies? Do not

639
00:36:48,080 --> 00:36:50,919
Speaker 1: like Trump's policies? Do you like what happened on January sixth?

640
00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:54,439
Speaker 1: Does what happened on January sixth make you offended? As

641
00:36:54,680 --> 00:36:56,080
Speaker 1: I'm sure it does you and me and you and

642
00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:58,600
Speaker 1: I talked about it on your show right around that time.

643
00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:01,120
Speaker 1: It was a terrible thing. But is it really fair

644
00:37:01,160 --> 00:37:04,320
Speaker 1: to blame Trump for what happened at the Capitol is

645
00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:08,800
Speaker 1: it really fair to blame his supporters for what happened

646
00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:10,719
Speaker 1: at the Capitol, Which is now what Joe Biden and

647
00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:12,520
Speaker 1: the new Secretary of Defense seemed to be saying with

648
00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:16,040
Speaker 1: their language or somehow, our number one danger as a

649
00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:19,919
Speaker 1: country is white supremacy and violence on the right. Of course,

650
00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:22,239
Speaker 1: they say nothing about the violence on the left with

651
00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:25,000
Speaker 1: Black Lives Matter and Antifa, and the fact that for

652
00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:27,640
Speaker 1: a year our cities were burned to the ground, and

653
00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:31,360
Speaker 1: churches were burned, and statues were torn down, and statues

654
00:37:31,400 --> 00:37:34,719
Speaker 1: of Jesus were desecrated, and cemeteries were desecraated. They don't

655
00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:36,960
Speaker 1: mention any of that. We have more violence in this

656
00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:41,680
Speaker 1: country buck because people feel like they don't have hope

657
00:37:41,719 --> 00:37:44,800
Speaker 1: within the system. So people who are into the system,

658
00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:47,960
Speaker 1: especially the establishment, they should do all they can to

659
00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:50,160
Speaker 1: make the Americans on both the left and the right

660
00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:53,879
Speaker 1: feel like their voices heard. Instead, what the establishments doing

661
00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:57,319
Speaker 1: is the opposite. They're censoring us, they're shutting us down,

662
00:37:57,360 --> 00:38:00,239
Speaker 1: they're canceling us. That will not have a good result

663
00:38:00,520 --> 00:38:02,960
Speaker 1: in our politics. Clearly, the people who rushed the Capitol

664
00:38:02,960 --> 00:38:06,080
Speaker 1: of criminals, but they also felt desperation. We need to

665
00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:09,400
Speaker 1: pull back for people feeling desperation. That's why our founders

666
00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:12,239
Speaker 1: gave us things like the First Amendment were politically you're

667
00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:15,440
Speaker 1: allowed to express yourself, and that is not being allowed

668
00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:18,800
Speaker 1: to happen unfortunately right now in America. Were you surprised

669
00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:21,120
Speaker 1: by the results? I mean, one hundred and forty five

670
00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:25,000
Speaker 1: for Liz Cheney to stay in her leadership job versus

671
00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:28,040
Speaker 1: only sixty one in the House. There was a lot

672
00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:30,600
Speaker 1: of no, I'm not surprised. I'm not surprised, and I

673
00:38:30,600 --> 00:38:33,279
Speaker 1: think this is being misreported. You know, I was a

674
00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:35,920
Speaker 1: Hill staffer for five years. A lot of people in

675
00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:39,360
Speaker 1: this town have congressional experience. But it was going to

676
00:38:39,440 --> 00:38:45,440
Speaker 1: take an overwhelming vote to push Liz Cheney out of leadership.

677
00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:48,280
Speaker 1: This wasn't so much about taking it out of leadership

678
00:38:48,280 --> 00:38:50,880
Speaker 1: as it was sending a message that when you're in leadership,

679
00:38:51,239 --> 00:38:54,440
Speaker 1: there are just certain things you do for the cause,

680
00:38:54,600 --> 00:38:57,440
Speaker 1: and if you're such an independent thinker that you can't

681
00:38:57,560 --> 00:38:59,719
Speaker 1: do the right thing for the party, then you should

682
00:38:59,800 --> 00:39:02,480
Speaker 1: never getting leadership because part of being a leadership is

683
00:39:02,760 --> 00:39:05,480
Speaker 1: sometimes you got to take votes that you disagree with

684
00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:08,520
Speaker 1: because you're in a leadership position. Just like all leadership positions.

685
00:39:08,920 --> 00:39:12,719
Speaker 1: We have an organizations across the country. There's there's a

686
00:39:12,719 --> 00:39:15,400
Speaker 1: cost to being a leader, and she was unwilling to

687
00:39:15,400 --> 00:39:19,080
Speaker 1: pay that cost because of her animosity for President Trump.

688
00:39:19,160 --> 00:39:22,360
Speaker 1: And so what's happened in the past when Republican leaders

689
00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:25,120
Speaker 1: got into this much trouble, they just stepped down. Remember

690
00:39:25,160 --> 00:39:28,000
Speaker 1: knew Gingridge stepped down from being Speaker when he got

691
00:39:28,080 --> 00:39:31,120
Speaker 1: himself really all kind of turned around on some ethics questions,

692
00:39:31,880 --> 00:39:33,920
Speaker 1: and she was unwilling to do that. So I admire

693
00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:36,200
Speaker 1: her moxy for sticking in there, but I don't think

694
00:39:36,200 --> 00:39:39,080
Speaker 1: it changed the political changes the political dynamic, which is

695
00:39:39,320 --> 00:39:42,759
Speaker 1: she's got a big problem within the Republican conference because

696
00:39:42,760 --> 00:39:46,359
Speaker 1: they don't view her as understanding that we shouldn't play

697
00:39:46,360 --> 00:39:49,719
Speaker 1: into the politics of Pelosi and Schumer, even when we're

698
00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:51,720
Speaker 1: going to get a bad editorial in the New York Times,

699
00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:54,920
Speaker 1: even when we have animosity or differences with a Republican

700
00:39:54,920 --> 00:39:58,640
Speaker 1: who might be the target. So Marjorie Taylor Green, she's

701
00:39:59,320 --> 00:40:03,200
Speaker 1: she's the latest target of the Democrats. It really doesn't

702
00:40:03,239 --> 00:40:05,959
Speaker 1: have to do with them being offended over her, which

703
00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:09,320
Speaker 1: I would say very offensive social media postings from previous

704
00:40:09,880 --> 00:40:12,360
Speaker 1: you know, before she was elected to serve in Congress.

705
00:40:12,480 --> 00:40:15,280
Speaker 1: By the way, the voters in Georgia put her in Congress,

706
00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:18,240
Speaker 1: and the voters get to decide these questions, not Nancy

707
00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:21,080
Speaker 1: Pelosi and the Democrats. But you know, she's just the

708
00:40:21,160 --> 00:40:25,239
Speaker 1: latest victim of what this cancel culture. They want to

709
00:40:25,239 --> 00:40:27,880
Speaker 1: cancel her before she's ever even really been allowed to

710
00:40:27,880 --> 00:40:30,120
Speaker 1: show what her true feelings are as a congresswoman, how

711
00:40:30,120 --> 00:40:32,600
Speaker 1: she wants to vote. If they if they can attack

712
00:40:32,640 --> 00:40:35,880
Speaker 1: her and persecute her, it'll just name the next Republican

713
00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:37,840
Speaker 1: they're going to go after. Basically, what they're trying to

714
00:40:37,840 --> 00:40:41,040
Speaker 1: do is make being a Republican illegal, and Republicans who

715
00:40:41,080 --> 00:40:43,520
Speaker 1: play along with that should just go away because they

716
00:40:43,560 --> 00:40:46,560
Speaker 1: don't know what's going on in the country. We're speaking of, Matt,

717
00:40:46,760 --> 00:40:49,239
Speaker 1: I'm sorry speaking to Matt schlap he's the chairman of

718
00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:54,080
Speaker 1: the American Conservative Union, and Matt Gates was leading the

719
00:40:54,120 --> 00:40:58,160
Speaker 1: effort to get rid of Liz Cheney. Do you think

720
00:40:58,239 --> 00:41:00,840
Speaker 1: that they're going to let bygones be by guns now, Matt,

721
00:41:00,920 --> 00:41:04,000
Speaker 1: or is there still this struggle that we should expect

722
00:41:04,040 --> 00:41:08,680
Speaker 1: to play out within GOP congressional ranks for who's really

723
00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:11,920
Speaker 1: the future of the GOP in terms of policy, but

724
00:41:11,960 --> 00:41:15,560
Speaker 1: also in terms of leadership. Well, we have Joe Biden

725
00:41:15,600 --> 00:41:18,480
Speaker 1: saying we need to unify the country. Well he's pursuing

726
00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:22,000
Speaker 1: in his party, is pursuing impeachment, saying that we have

727
00:41:22,160 --> 00:41:25,080
Speaker 1: to go after all these white nationalists, which sounds strangely

728
00:41:25,160 --> 00:41:28,160
Speaker 1: like he just wants to go after conservatives and MAGA people.

729
00:41:28,360 --> 00:41:30,279
Speaker 1: It really doesn't have much to do with race at all.

730
00:41:30,640 --> 00:41:33,280
Speaker 1: And now you have these strange calls for unity within

731
00:41:33,760 --> 00:41:37,280
Speaker 1: the Republican ranks. To me, I'm not very interested in unity.

732
00:41:37,960 --> 00:41:41,520
Speaker 1: I'm interested in having a civil debate on what we

733
00:41:41,560 --> 00:41:43,880
Speaker 1: should agree with and what we shouldn't agree with. I

734
00:41:44,160 --> 00:41:47,359
Speaker 1: don't want just like a vanilla Republican party that has

735
00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:51,920
Speaker 1: no disagreements. I'm plenty fine with lots of Republican disagreements.

736
00:41:51,920 --> 00:41:53,640
Speaker 1: I just want to make sure that they remember that

737
00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:56,920
Speaker 1: the political enemy are the socialists, and this is the

738
00:41:57,320 --> 00:42:01,719
Speaker 1: socialism that the Democrats have grabbed up. Have you embraced?

739
00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:05,239
Speaker 1: So this question about Liz Cheney and her future, I

740
00:42:05,239 --> 00:42:08,360
Speaker 1: think is a very open question. And if she believes

741
00:42:08,440 --> 00:42:10,600
Speaker 1: that the right thing to do is kind of divorce

742
00:42:10,760 --> 00:42:13,960
Speaker 1: MAGA from this coalition as I call it, not so

743
00:42:14,040 --> 00:42:16,759
Speaker 1: much a Republican Party as it is a coalition. The

744
00:42:16,800 --> 00:42:19,719
Speaker 1: Conservatives are the most important part of that coalition. If

745
00:42:19,719 --> 00:42:22,640
Speaker 1: she thinks it's important to divorce Maga from that coalition,

746
00:42:22,880 --> 00:42:25,200
Speaker 1: I will fight her on that. Politically, I like and

747
00:42:25,320 --> 00:42:27,960
Speaker 1: respect her, We've been friends a long time. I disagree

748
00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:30,960
Speaker 1: with her impeachment vote. I disagree with this idea that

749
00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:34,359
Speaker 1: somehow Trump has been a cancer on the Republican Party.

750
00:42:34,360 --> 00:42:37,560
Speaker 1: I think he's added millions of new voters. I've obviously

751
00:42:37,600 --> 00:42:39,799
Speaker 1: been a strong supporter of his. I will continue to

752
00:42:39,840 --> 00:42:42,319
Speaker 1: be for him and for his policies. And I think

753
00:42:42,360 --> 00:42:44,480
Speaker 1: we all had that debate, and so it becomes a

754
00:42:44,480 --> 00:42:47,440
Speaker 1: little public at time. That's okay. We're big boys and girls,

755
00:42:47,640 --> 00:42:49,400
Speaker 1: and we're going to have it at Seapack anyway, So

756
00:42:49,719 --> 00:42:52,080
Speaker 1: buckle up. So tell me this. Let's look at the

757
00:42:52,080 --> 00:42:56,080
Speaker 1: other side for a second. Jack Posovic over One America

758
00:42:56,160 --> 00:42:59,440
Speaker 1: News got this one going. He pointed out that AOC

759
00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:04,440
Speaker 1: who was really made a spectacle of herself recently, Alexandria Ocazio,

760
00:43:04,640 --> 00:43:09,680
Speaker 1: Alexandra Occazio Cortez. She she was claiming that Ted Cruze

761
00:43:09,719 --> 00:43:11,760
Speaker 1: almost had her killed. I mean, I saw that tweet

762
00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:13,720
Speaker 1: as if you know, Ted Cruz was ordering a hitman

763
00:43:13,800 --> 00:43:17,560
Speaker 1: to find her. She's been doing, you know, TEARI eyed

764
00:43:18,680 --> 00:43:21,080
Speaker 1: videos from home about how she was terrified she was

765
00:43:21,080 --> 00:43:25,680
Speaker 1: going to die. And now Jack looked at a and

766
00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:28,640
Speaker 1: you know Capitol Hill very well, she looked at a

767
00:43:28,680 --> 00:43:31,600
Speaker 1: map and she was what is it about an eight

768
00:43:31,719 --> 00:43:34,800
Speaker 1: eight to ten minute walk from the actual Capitol U

769
00:43:35,160 --> 00:43:38,799
Speaker 1: when when all this happened, What do you make of this? Well,

770
00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:40,440
Speaker 1: they're trying to make it sound like it was almost

771
00:43:40,440 --> 00:43:44,520
Speaker 1: an attack on the on the NATS stadium, which is

772
00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:46,840
Speaker 1: not too far away from the Cannon House office building.

773
00:43:46,920 --> 00:43:50,279
Speaker 1: Look what happened at the Capitol's terrible. Can't be excused,

774
00:43:50,280 --> 00:43:53,040
Speaker 1: and I can understand why it was shocking to members

775
00:43:53,040 --> 00:43:58,040
Speaker 1: of Congress. But this is where the language is purposely politicized.

776
00:43:58,360 --> 00:44:01,239
Speaker 1: Donald Trump didn't call for any violence that day. He

777
00:44:01,280 --> 00:44:04,560
Speaker 1: called to the opposite. Anybody who accuses the president of

778
00:44:04,640 --> 00:44:07,880
Speaker 1: calling for violence should show the words in the speech

779
00:44:07,960 --> 00:44:10,400
Speaker 1: that he uttered that called for violence. Of course, the

780
00:44:10,400 --> 00:44:12,320
Speaker 1: opposite is in the speech. And if you're going to

781
00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:15,200
Speaker 1: accuse Ted Cruse of trying to murder, you show the

782
00:44:15,239 --> 00:44:18,720
Speaker 1: words that Ted Cruz uttered to call for that violence.

783
00:44:18,760 --> 00:44:20,840
Speaker 1: Of course those words don't exist. I often wonder with

784
00:44:20,960 --> 00:44:23,759
Speaker 1: these socialists, do they think that, like Buck, you and

785
00:44:23,800 --> 00:44:26,040
Speaker 1: I communicate both with our mouths and we have like

786
00:44:26,120 --> 00:44:30,640
Speaker 1: some secret like you know, telepathy, that we're speaking, you know,

787
00:44:30,800 --> 00:44:33,520
Speaker 1: encouraging people. They love to call it a dog whistle,

788
00:44:33,600 --> 00:44:36,120
Speaker 1: something people can't hear, but like if you have, if

789
00:44:36,120 --> 00:44:39,160
Speaker 1: you have the right kind of hearing, you can hear it. Somehow,

790
00:44:39,280 --> 00:44:42,200
Speaker 1: Josh Holly and Ted Cruise and Donald Trump were speaking

791
00:44:42,239 --> 00:44:46,040
Speaker 1: telepathically to their supporters to do bad things. This Manchurian

792
00:44:46,160 --> 00:44:49,320
Speaker 1: Canada kind of nonsense. It just has to stop. It

793
00:44:49,320 --> 00:44:51,359
Speaker 1: should be called out. When we used to have pre

794
00:44:51,440 --> 00:44:54,560
Speaker 1: unfair journalism in this country, they would have told a

795
00:44:54,600 --> 00:44:58,600
Speaker 1: politician that you can't make charges that you can't substantiate

796
00:44:58,640 --> 00:45:02,440
Speaker 1: with actual words. So and I think it's great what

797
00:45:02,600 --> 00:45:05,840
Speaker 1: Jack has done on this reporting because it doesn't excuse

798
00:45:05,880 --> 00:45:08,520
Speaker 1: the violence and the crimes that occurred at the Capitol,

799
00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:11,680
Speaker 1: but it does indict those who are trying to use

800
00:45:11,840 --> 00:45:15,799
Speaker 1: that those crimes in a way to seem like the

801
00:45:15,960 --> 00:45:20,560
Speaker 1: Republican Party or Trump supporters or conservatives, or trying to

802
00:45:20,640 --> 00:45:24,160
Speaker 1: harm them physically. Of course, the opposite is true. My

803
00:45:24,320 --> 00:45:27,240
Speaker 1: argument would be no matter. Whenever you have a big

804
00:45:27,719 --> 00:45:30,640
Speaker 1: rally somewhere, my guesses you can find fifteen to thirty

805
00:45:30,760 --> 00:45:34,400
Speaker 1: lugheads and all those rallies. The difference between MAGA rallies

806
00:45:34,840 --> 00:45:37,600
Speaker 1: and what we saw with a tef them Black Lives Matter.

807
00:45:37,719 --> 00:45:39,640
Speaker 1: And I went into some of those crowds with Black

808
00:45:39,680 --> 00:45:44,239
Speaker 1: Lives Matter, that was overcome with people who meant to

809
00:45:44,239 --> 00:45:47,399
Speaker 1: do violence, who meant to desecrate, who meant to do

810
00:45:47,680 --> 00:45:51,239
Speaker 1: physical harm to all these important monuments and buildings. That

811
00:45:51,320 --> 00:45:55,640
Speaker 1: was the whole reason to have those riots, where by

812
00:45:55,680 --> 00:45:57,920
Speaker 1: the way, not one cop died, and I really mourned

813
00:45:57,960 --> 00:46:00,319
Speaker 1: the death of this Capitol Hill cop. I consider him hero.

814
00:46:00,880 --> 00:46:03,400
Speaker 1: I think with the memorial they had from him on

815
00:46:03,440 --> 00:46:06,719
Speaker 1: Capitol Hill was totally appropriate. I only wish we could

816
00:46:06,719 --> 00:46:09,320
Speaker 1: have had an equal memorial for all the other cops

817
00:46:09,360 --> 00:46:12,359
Speaker 1: who have lost their life over the course of last

818
00:46:12,400 --> 00:46:15,080
Speaker 1: eighteen months with this left wing violence. You know, just

819
00:46:15,120 --> 00:46:18,920
Speaker 1: because you die trying to save Nancy Pelosi's life doesn't

820
00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:21,960
Speaker 1: make that death more of a tragedy than if you

821
00:46:22,040 --> 00:46:25,600
Speaker 1: tried to bring order around the White House or in

822
00:46:25,719 --> 00:46:28,680
Speaker 1: chop or in Portland, or in Chicago or in New

823
00:46:28,719 --> 00:46:32,960
Speaker 1: York city. The death of these law enforcement officers is

824
00:46:33,000 --> 00:46:36,000
Speaker 1: really a stain on our history, and we ought to

825
00:46:36,560 --> 00:46:41,400
Speaker 1: have more public memorials and accommodations for those law enforcement

826
00:46:41,440 --> 00:46:44,080
Speaker 1: officials who have been killed by this left wing violence.

827
00:46:44,120 --> 00:46:48,080
Speaker 1: All the violence is terrible, it's criminal, and we ought

828
00:46:48,120 --> 00:46:50,480
Speaker 1: to take the lessons from why it's occurring. And I

829
00:46:50,560 --> 00:46:53,520
Speaker 1: definitely think that there. I can tell you about conservatives,

830
00:46:53,920 --> 00:46:55,879
Speaker 1: they feel a little desperate when their votes are taken

831
00:46:55,920 --> 00:46:57,799
Speaker 1: away from them, and when their votes are taken away

832
00:46:57,800 --> 00:47:00,800
Speaker 1: from them, excuse me when there and when their voice

833
00:47:00,840 --> 00:47:02,840
Speaker 1: is taken away from them, when literally they can't speak

834
00:47:02,880 --> 00:47:05,960
Speaker 1: on social media as they have come to expect to

835
00:47:06,000 --> 00:47:08,160
Speaker 1: be able to speak. Speaking of Match Lap, chairman of

836
00:47:08,160 --> 00:47:13,080
Speaker 1: the American Conservative Union, and Seepack Matt, which you are

837
00:47:13,840 --> 00:47:16,560
Speaker 1: the man at Sepack. That's going to be happening in

838
00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:18,319
Speaker 1: just a few weeks. I'm coming down there to see

839
00:47:18,320 --> 00:47:19,680
Speaker 1: you and all the rest of the fine folks the

840
00:47:19,680 --> 00:47:24,520
Speaker 1: conservative movement. What give us the message? And I'm hoping

841
00:47:24,560 --> 00:47:26,640
Speaker 1: some people listening to this will be able to join

842
00:47:26,760 --> 00:47:29,200
Speaker 1: us down in Orlando. It's gonna be nice weather, a

843
00:47:29,239 --> 00:47:30,919
Speaker 1: lot of conservative It's going to be a good time.

844
00:47:31,760 --> 00:47:34,520
Speaker 1: But what is going to be the overriding message when

845
00:47:34,560 --> 00:47:37,560
Speaker 1: you're right now gathering together a lot of conservatives, both

846
00:47:37,560 --> 00:47:40,000
Speaker 1: people who are just supportive of the movement and people

847
00:47:40,040 --> 00:47:42,360
Speaker 1: who are at the forefront, people that have platforms and

848
00:47:42,400 --> 00:47:45,480
Speaker 1: that are trying to spread the message. A lot of

849
00:47:45,480 --> 00:47:47,759
Speaker 1: folks out there are feeling a little dejected right now

850
00:47:47,800 --> 00:47:50,640
Speaker 1: given what's going on in this election, and also the

851
00:47:50,640 --> 00:47:53,840
Speaker 1: first moves of the Biden presidency are not the least

852
00:47:53,920 --> 00:47:56,920
Speaker 1: bit confidence inspiring for anybody who lives in reality. I

853
00:47:56,960 --> 00:48:00,359
Speaker 1: think what is the message going to be then from

854
00:48:00,360 --> 00:48:05,359
Speaker 1: speck Well, Our theme is America uncanceled. They try to

855
00:48:05,400 --> 00:48:09,640
Speaker 1: cancel our votes, our values, and now our voices, and

856
00:48:09,719 --> 00:48:12,560
Speaker 1: so we will spend a lot of time talking about

857
00:48:12,640 --> 00:48:15,239
Speaker 1: what happened around the election and the reforms that are

858
00:48:15,239 --> 00:48:17,920
Speaker 1: needed to It's a very simple prospect that you should

859
00:48:17,920 --> 00:48:19,880
Speaker 1: be a legal voter to be able to vote in

860
00:48:19,920 --> 00:48:24,000
Speaker 1: a democracy, very basic principle. We violated that, We sullied it,

861
00:48:24,040 --> 00:48:26,480
Speaker 1: and that's got to stop. The second thing is this

862
00:48:26,640 --> 00:48:31,120
Speaker 1: idea of how our political voices are being silenced left

863
00:48:31,120 --> 00:48:34,080
Speaker 1: and right, both within the corporate culture of most of

864
00:48:34,080 --> 00:48:38,799
Speaker 1: our publicly traded corporations, on almost every media outlet. Obviously,

865
00:48:39,239 --> 00:48:43,520
Speaker 1: in social media, people are losing their jobs because they

866
00:48:43,560 --> 00:48:46,920
Speaker 1: fly the wrong flag, and that's simply not consistent with

867
00:48:47,000 --> 00:48:51,080
Speaker 1: American values. So we'll be talking about and then finally

868
00:48:51,120 --> 00:48:54,560
Speaker 1: the most important thing. Buck. You can understand this because

869
00:48:54,600 --> 00:48:56,360
Speaker 1: you spend a lot of time talking about these things.

870
00:48:56,719 --> 00:48:59,160
Speaker 1: The new embrace of socialism by one of our two

871
00:48:59,200 --> 00:49:03,120
Speaker 1: major parties has basically meant our Bill of Rights as

872
00:49:03,120 --> 00:49:06,400
Speaker 1: a stop watch on its life, or at least a

873
00:49:06,480 --> 00:49:08,840
Speaker 1: clock on its life. They don't believe in these in

874
00:49:08,880 --> 00:49:10,600
Speaker 1: the Bill of Rights, if you walk through each one.

875
00:49:10,760 --> 00:49:12,759
Speaker 1: They clearly don't believe in the First Amendment because they

876
00:49:12,800 --> 00:49:14,960
Speaker 1: think that it's fine to have illegal votes and they

877
00:49:14,960 --> 00:49:17,320
Speaker 1: think it's fine to cancel people's political speech. So the

878
00:49:17,360 --> 00:49:20,560
Speaker 1: First Amendment, and we all know about religious freedom, that's

879
00:49:21,080 --> 00:49:23,279
Speaker 1: you know, that's been under attack for a decade now.

880
00:49:23,520 --> 00:49:26,600
Speaker 1: They don't believe in the Second Amendment. Obviously, Joe Biden

881
00:49:26,920 --> 00:49:29,719
Speaker 1: ran on gun confiscation saying that you're not kind of

882
00:49:29,800 --> 00:49:31,560
Speaker 1: up to your gun rights, so we'll just take your

883
00:49:31,560 --> 00:49:33,799
Speaker 1: guns away from you. And if you walk through all

884
00:49:33,840 --> 00:49:37,680
Speaker 1: of these amendments, they basically don't believe in the Amendment.

885
00:49:37,680 --> 00:49:40,839
Speaker 1: Now they believe in a free press, supposedly, even though

886
00:49:40,880 --> 00:49:43,520
Speaker 1: that free press doesn't seem to want to take our

887
00:49:43,520 --> 00:49:45,600
Speaker 1: side into account, which doesn't make it free at all,

888
00:49:45,600 --> 00:49:48,279
Speaker 1: which makes a propaganda. But I guess you could try

889
00:49:48,320 --> 00:49:49,799
Speaker 1: to find a way to get that into the latter

890
00:49:49,840 --> 00:49:52,480
Speaker 1: part of the First Amendment. But so here or there

891
00:49:52,800 --> 00:49:55,759
Speaker 1: they don't have disagreements, but ninety they don't agree with

892
00:49:55,760 --> 00:49:57,759
Speaker 1: the Bill of Rights back to me is a very

893
00:49:57,840 --> 00:50:01,480
Speaker 1: dangerous thing in our country that we've ever been here before.

894
00:50:01,480 --> 00:50:04,279
Speaker 1: We had one of our two major parties literally rejecting

895
00:50:04,600 --> 00:50:07,760
Speaker 1: the underpinnings of the Constitution. They used to use euphemisms.

896
00:50:07,880 --> 00:50:11,000
Speaker 1: They'd say, oh, it's a living, breathing document. We cherish

897
00:50:11,080 --> 00:50:13,000
Speaker 1: this document, you know, we just want to see some

898
00:50:13,120 --> 00:50:15,840
Speaker 1: changes to it now that they don't support any amendas.

899
00:50:15,920 --> 00:50:19,240
Speaker 1: Isn't that Iran liberals don't support any amends or constitution.

900
00:50:19,320 --> 00:50:21,399
Speaker 1: We do as conservatives because we know that's how you're

901
00:50:21,400 --> 00:50:24,480
Speaker 1: supposed to change the constitution. That's the way our founders

902
00:50:25,040 --> 00:50:27,120
Speaker 1: that that was the process they left in the constitution

903
00:50:27,160 --> 00:50:29,480
Speaker 1: because they knew one day we'd make slavery illegal. They

904
00:50:29,600 --> 00:50:32,640
Speaker 1: kept that in there on purpose. Women got economic rights,

905
00:50:32,640 --> 00:50:34,920
Speaker 1: they got the boat. This is how that was done.

906
00:50:35,239 --> 00:50:37,080
Speaker 1: But they don't believe in in amendments because they just

907
00:50:37,120 --> 00:50:39,200
Speaker 1: go to the court where they go to a regulator

908
00:50:39,280 --> 00:50:42,239
Speaker 1: and by FIAT, they just change the world. Matt, where

909
00:50:42,239 --> 00:50:44,839
Speaker 1: can people go if they if they want to either

910
00:50:44,960 --> 00:50:48,680
Speaker 1: partake in person or online to join us at seapack

911
00:50:48,719 --> 00:50:51,640
Speaker 1: in a few weeks. You're a better pitchman than I am. Yeah,

912
00:50:51,680 --> 00:50:54,120
Speaker 1: go to Conservative dot org. There's a few tickets left.

913
00:50:54,160 --> 00:50:56,840
Speaker 1: We will sell out. We're making announcements every day and

914
00:50:56,880 --> 00:50:58,960
Speaker 1: we'd love to have you down there. Match Lap of

915
00:50:58,960 --> 00:51:01,799
Speaker 1: the American Conservatives Union, Matt, I always appreciate it, see

916
00:51:01,800 --> 00:51:04,080
Speaker 1: you down in sunny Florida. Thank you back, Thanks for

917
00:51:04,160 --> 00:51:04,839
Speaker 1: coming to see you back.
