1
00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:15,319
Speaker 1: You are entering the Freedom Hunt. CNN is in the

2
00:00:15,400 --> 00:00:20,919
Speaker 1: midst of a seven hour climate change extravaganza of insanity.

3
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:25,760
Speaker 1: We'll talk about that and also the latest on Walmart

4
00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:29,000
Speaker 1: caving to the far left on guns. There's also now

5
00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:32,520
Speaker 1: going to be a renewed discussion over universal background checks.

6
00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:34,400
Speaker 1: We got that and much more coming up on The

7
00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:38,760
Speaker 1: buck Sexton Show. This is the buck Sexton Show, where

8
00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:41,839
Speaker 1: the mission or mission is to decode what really matters

9
00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:48,320
Speaker 1: with actionable intelligence. Mag No mistake, America, You're a great

10
00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:58,360
Speaker 1: American Again. The buck Sexton Show begins. Analyst, Remember an

11
00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:03,000
Speaker 1: unprecedented Democratic Prince sinential town hall event, climate crisis, Biden,

12
00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 1: Warren Sanders, Paris, boot Y, Yang Castro, ten candidates, ten

13
00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:13,720
Speaker 1: town halls, all on one night, tonight, five Eastern, seven

14
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:20,640
Speaker 1: hours of climate change madness. Welcome to the buck Sexton Show.

15
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:26,720
Speaker 1: Everybody tonight, Yang Cloba, Shore, Biden, if he remembers to

16
00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:34,119
Speaker 1: show up, it's amazing. It's amazing. Seven hours. I mean,

17
00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:41,400
Speaker 1: if we made detainees watch this CNN climate change town hall,

18
00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:44,080
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure it would be a violation of a

19
00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:48,840
Speaker 1: Geneva convention. Like I think there's a real case to

20
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:51,880
Speaker 1: be made that being forced to watch this CNN climate

21
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:55,720
Speaker 1: change town hall under any circumstances might be a crime

22
00:01:55,800 --> 00:02:02,640
Speaker 1: against humanity. You can't make this stuff up seven hours now.

23
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:04,680
Speaker 1: I know that they expect those are all, but we're aren't,

24
00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:06,880
Speaker 1: you know, expecting people. No, No, I'm sure there's some

25
00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:09,079
Speaker 1: CNN people like I need to watch all of this

26
00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:14,760
Speaker 1: otherwise the climate's just going to destroy us all. Wow,

27
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:18,120
Speaker 1: that does feel a bit like there might be some

28
00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:23,200
Speaker 1: exploitative timing here as well, with a hurricane that is

29
00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:27,240
Speaker 1: just shy of being a category three. Now it's a

30
00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:30,160
Speaker 1: category two, but very close to being a three, and

31
00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 1: it has strengthened in the last few hours to propagate

32
00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:39,080
Speaker 1: this narrative that what we are doing is the cause

33
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:42,120
Speaker 1: that we are the cause of this destruction. Our activity,

34
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:46,680
Speaker 1: meaning our economic day to day activity, is the reason

35
00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:52,120
Speaker 1: that this is befalling us. You have to just marvel

36
00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:57,160
Speaker 1: at the disconnect from reality that liberals are engaged in here,

37
00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:05,280
Speaker 1: and just also seven hours. As if that wasn't enough, MSNBC, oh,

38
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:08,919
Speaker 1: that's right. They want to get in on this action too.

39
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:15,200
Speaker 1: They announced earlier today Climate Forum twenty twenty, a two

40
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:21,519
Speaker 1: day event featuring the twenty twenty presidential democrats. Now to this,

41
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:25,200
Speaker 1: I just want to say, excuse me, MSNBC, but if

42
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:28,359
Speaker 1: you really cared about climate change, wouldn't your two day

43
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 1: climate change event be more like a week? Oh? I'm sorry,

44
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 1: don't have enough time to save the world. What a oh,

45
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:41,880
Speaker 1: what a bunch of what a bunch of lunacy. This

46
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:47,560
Speaker 1: is Andrew Yang, who has some good somebody I shouldn't

47
00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:50,000
Speaker 1: say he doesn't have good ideas. He has interesting ideas.

48
00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:53,320
Speaker 1: You know, Andrew Yang is the guy who's like, you know, like,

49
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:58,040
Speaker 1: you know, maybe we could build you know, I don't know,

50
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:00,440
Speaker 1: maybe we could build a sports stadium the floats in

51
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:02,440
Speaker 1: the air, and we're all like, oh interesting, probably really

52
00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 1: expensive and can't work. But you know, you like to

53
00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:07,160
Speaker 1: debate and discuss some of the things that he puts

54
00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:09,560
Speaker 1: out there. And he also comes across like a reasonably earnest,

55
00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:12,880
Speaker 1: nice guy, so you know he's not mean. You know,

56
00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:15,120
Speaker 1: he comes across as really mean to me all the time.

57
00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:18,800
Speaker 1: Is boodha judge. I just seems mean, never seems to

58
00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:21,839
Speaker 1: smile and make a joke, do anything even vaguely funny

59
00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:24,800
Speaker 1: and self aware. He's just always like lecturing everybody, and

60
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:28,920
Speaker 1: especially about the Bible, which he has a seemingly loose

61
00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:34,440
Speaker 1: familiarity with. But Yang wants a carbon tax of forty

62
00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:38,120
Speaker 1: to one hundred dollars per ton. This is just this

63
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:44,719
Speaker 1: is just a massive, a massive government takeover of whole

64
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:47,720
Speaker 1: sectors of the economy. That's all. That's all that's going

65
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:51,320
Speaker 1: to happen. That's what's going to come from this. You know,

66
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:56,600
Speaker 1: that's going to be the reality. And they're going to

67
00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:59,040
Speaker 1: try to enrich themselves here. I mean, they're going to

68
00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:02,919
Speaker 1: try to enrich government coffers by telling you that the

69
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:08,200
Speaker 1: world is going to end. You know, I'm looking at

70
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:12,480
Speaker 1: and they all release their climate change proposals in advance

71
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:17,479
Speaker 1: of this whole town hall thing, right, and these candidates

72
00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:19,599
Speaker 1: you look at them, it's all the same, because what

73
00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:23,920
Speaker 1: are you really going to say, other than let's abandoned prosperity.

74
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:27,800
Speaker 1: Let's abandon what has brought more people as a function

75
00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:31,279
Speaker 1: of technology and the impact on our day to day lives.

76
00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:36,120
Speaker 1: Fossil fuels have done more to bring people out of poverty.

77
00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,560
Speaker 1: And because also you have to see the system of

78
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:42,880
Speaker 1: capitalism that we have is built upon industrialized economies that

79
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:48,600
Speaker 1: rely on fossil fuels. So really, the attack on CO

80
00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:51,599
Speaker 1: two such as it is, is an attack on capitalism,

81
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:54,560
Speaker 1: which is why there's so much crossover with Marxist rhetoric

82
00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:58,920
Speaker 1: and thinking with all of it. But yeah, Yang's up there.

83
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,920
Speaker 1: I mean, clubush are all of them, And you know,

84
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:04,920
Speaker 1: the Democrats in the audience, I really wish that I

85
00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:07,040
Speaker 1: could sit down with them, one after the other. I'm

86
00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:09,240
Speaker 1: talking about the people that watch this and say to them,

87
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:12,960
Speaker 1: you really, you really believe that the world is going

88
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:17,159
Speaker 1: to that the whole cities will be underwater. You know,

89
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:19,640
Speaker 1: these are people, mind you that make fun of anybody

90
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:22,479
Speaker 1: who reads the Bible for the most part and says, oh,

91
00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:24,840
Speaker 1: you believe that this thing happened, you know, two thousand

92
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:27,520
Speaker 1: years ago or three thousand years ago, and you know

93
00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:30,479
Speaker 1: in ancient Israel and at all that they Meanwhile, they're

94
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:33,960
Speaker 1: the ones that think that because AOC claims that cow

95
00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:38,400
Speaker 1: farts are doing too much damage to the atmosphere, we're

96
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:43,400
Speaker 1: all going to be threatened with extinction if we don't

97
00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:47,520
Speaker 1: decide to radically upend the economy all the things that

98
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:52,080
Speaker 1: have brought us comfort and food and travel and air conditioning.

99
00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:55,480
Speaker 1: Let's let's make that much more expensive, which means much

100
00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:59,599
Speaker 1: more inaccessible, much more inefficient, and let's do it all

101
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:02,720
Speaker 1: because the people that keep telling us we're running out

102
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:07,720
Speaker 1: of time are extending the time. Whenever we've run out

103
00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:12,200
Speaker 1: of the time. They said we didn't have seven hour

104
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 1: town halls, you know, I mean, this is this is

105
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:18,640
Speaker 1: what you expect because this is this is turned into

106
00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:22,960
Speaker 1: a radical belief. It has gone from something that is

107
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:26,400
Speaker 1: in the background and now it is. It is a necessary,

108
00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:29,840
Speaker 1: a necessary precondition for being a Democrat, for being a

109
00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:34,400
Speaker 1: leftist in good standing, you must support abortion, you must

110
00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:39,400
Speaker 1: support climate change, and increasingly you must support open borders.

111
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:41,960
Speaker 1: But climate change is an absolute Now you are not allowed.

112
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:45,200
Speaker 1: You cannot be a heretic on this and be in

113
00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:47,120
Speaker 1: good sending with the left because they have so much

114
00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:49,080
Speaker 1: riding on this. They really do view this as a

115
00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:54,120
Speaker 1: way to seize more power in your life via the

116
00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:57,240
Speaker 1: government than would have ever been thought possible before. I mean,

117
00:07:57,320 --> 00:08:01,880
Speaker 1: they're trying to create a benevolent Green East totalitarian society.

118
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:04,280
Speaker 1: That's why they're having a seven hour town hall at

119
00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:07,960
Speaker 1: CNN and a two day town hall at MSNBC. We've

120
00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:09,680
Speaker 1: got more on this day with me. The hurricane. We

121
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:13,440
Speaker 1: got lucky in Florida, very very lucky. Indeed, we had

122
00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:16,040
Speaker 1: actually our original chart was that it was going to

123
00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:19,560
Speaker 1: be hit hitting Florida's directly. Maybe I could just see that, Kevin,

124
00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:24,400
Speaker 1: it was going to be hitting directly, and I would

125
00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:27,480
Speaker 1: have affected a lot of other states. But that was

126
00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:31,480
Speaker 1: the original chart, and you see it was going to

127
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:35,440
Speaker 1: hit not only Florida, but Georgia could have was going

128
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:39,439
Speaker 1: toward the Gulf. That was what we what was originally projected,

129
00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:44,719
Speaker 1: and it took a right turn and ultimately hopefully we're

130
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:46,640
Speaker 1: going to be lucky. It depends on what happens with

131
00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:50,320
Speaker 1: South Carolina, North Carolina, but it's heading up the coast.

132
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:54,280
Speaker 1: The President giving an update there on the US mainland

133
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:57,200
Speaker 1: damage of Hurricane Dorian, as he was saying, it looks

134
00:08:57,200 --> 00:09:01,280
Speaker 1: like Florida did not get hit his badly as could

135
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:04,120
Speaker 1: have been the case. The Bahamas got hit very hard though,

136
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:08,040
Speaker 1: and you know, the footage of that devastation is just

137
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:12,520
Speaker 1: it's a reminder of the power of Mother Nature despite

138
00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:17,360
Speaker 1: all of our technological advances, also that the world is

139
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:20,400
Speaker 1: still a very uncertain and can be a very dangerous

140
00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:23,439
Speaker 1: and unforgiving place. And you think about the Bahamas, a

141
00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:29,520
Speaker 1: locale generally associated in most people's minds with paradise. That's

142
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:31,679
Speaker 1: where they go to get away from all their problems.

143
00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:34,120
Speaker 1: And then you see what's happened to the people who

144
00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:37,760
Speaker 1: live there, Bahamians, and it's just it's heartbreaking. Home's gone.

145
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:40,360
Speaker 1: I think there's one I think on Grand Bahama Island.

146
00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:44,360
Speaker 1: If I read correctly today, half of structures are either

147
00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:48,640
Speaker 1: gone or severely damaged, which is just an astonishing number.

148
00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:53,320
Speaker 1: Will hopefully beginning them aid as quickly as possible. I

149
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:55,319
Speaker 1: know that there are some states in the southeastern United

150
00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:59,080
Speaker 1: States that are also facing this thing, and just want

151
00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:01,800
Speaker 1: everyone down there to know, you know, you're in our prayers,

152
00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:05,440
Speaker 1: and please just air on the side of caution. You know.

153
00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:08,040
Speaker 1: I always feel like it's easy to tell people, oh,

154
00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:10,200
Speaker 1: just listen to the authorities. Well, you know, you know,

155
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:14,920
Speaker 1: as a conservative, I'm always also saying, you understand your situation.

156
00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:17,720
Speaker 1: You have the ability to improvise at the local level,

157
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:20,280
Speaker 1: especially for yourself and your family, that no government could

158
00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:23,679
Speaker 1: ever have. But you should take into account the warnings

159
00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:26,120
Speaker 1: and the assessments that are given to you. And I

160
00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:28,560
Speaker 1: think that err on the side of caution is just

161
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:31,240
Speaker 1: a good, a good rule when dealing with storms. And

162
00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:32,920
Speaker 1: I remember here in New York City a number of

163
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:36,040
Speaker 1: times getting ready for very big storms and people had

164
00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:37,840
Speaker 1: we had all this water on hand, and you know,

165
00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:40,880
Speaker 1: once or twice it turned out to just be a

166
00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:44,200
Speaker 1: pretty windy rain storm. And then there was Hurricane Sandy,

167
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:47,440
Speaker 1: which was the big one that people had been worried

168
00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:50,400
Speaker 1: about for some time. But any my thoughts and prayers

169
00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:54,880
Speaker 1: everybody down there and the southeast United States, and we

170
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:58,520
Speaker 1: will keep following the story as this goes through the week.

171
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:03,520
Speaker 1: One other part of the new cycle that is getting

172
00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:06,120
Speaker 1: very little attention this week. I mean, I told you

173
00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:10,600
Speaker 1: yesterday about the story of the labor department labor department

174
00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:13,640
Speaker 1: employee who was fired and was fired because of what

175
00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:17,080
Speaker 1: is a really a false and defamatory allegation from a

176
00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:23,680
Speaker 1: lib reporter at Bloomberg. The border wall is getting built.

177
00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:28,920
Speaker 1: This this is going to happen. There is going to

178
00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:33,480
Speaker 1: be new border wall construction. Now, there could be some

179
00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:37,000
Speaker 1: challenges in the courts, but here's what the here's what

180
00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:41,200
Speaker 1: the president president says about this appropriation of funds from

181
00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:45,479
Speaker 1: within the DoD budget. It was a few billion dollars presidents.

182
00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:50,079
Speaker 1: This if this goes forward, folks, this is delivering or

183
00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:53,800
Speaker 1: at least in the process of delivering on a promise.

184
00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:57,640
Speaker 1: And the wall is being built. It's going up rapidly.

185
00:11:57,800 --> 00:11:59,839
Speaker 1: It's I guess most of you have been able to

186
00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:06,760
Speaker 1: We're building very large sections of wall. It's a big

187
00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:09,080
Speaker 1: factor was we just won the big Supreme Court case,

188
00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:12,800
Speaker 1: as you know, and we we're building in different sections.

189
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:16,360
Speaker 1: We're building different sections simultaneously, and we think by the

190
00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:20,000
Speaker 1: end of next year, which will be sometime right after

191
00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:21,880
Speaker 1: the election, actually, but we think we're going to have

192
00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:25,559
Speaker 1: close to five hundred miles of wall which will be complete.

193
00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:27,959
Speaker 1: That'll be what we wanted to do, is about five

194
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:30,800
Speaker 1: hundred miles that will take care of all of the

195
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:33,640
Speaker 1: areas that we wanted, including some of the marginal areas

196
00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:36,520
Speaker 1: that we didn't necessarily need. But if we could have

197
00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:39,640
Speaker 1: gotten it done, we were looking to do about a

198
00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:42,880
Speaker 1: five hundred mile stretch. We should have it almost complete,

199
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:46,480
Speaker 1: if not complete, by the end of next year. By

200
00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:49,920
Speaker 1: the end of next year, just in time for the

201
00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:55,400
Speaker 1: American people to assess whether President Trump keeps his promises.

202
00:12:56,559 --> 00:13:01,240
Speaker 1: It is essential and I really, I really think this

203
00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:04,920
Speaker 1: needs to be emphasized that is essential that the president

204
00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:07,480
Speaker 1: deliver on the promise of building a wall at the

205
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:11,559
Speaker 1: southern border. He was mocked for this endlessly by his opponents,

206
00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:15,360
Speaker 1: including a lot of Republican opponents, really all of them.

207
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:19,680
Speaker 1: In the early days, he has been ridiculed on this

208
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:23,280
Speaker 1: matter in the press. Even though I've spoken to border patrol,

209
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:25,960
Speaker 1: been down to the border. They think that wall in

210
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:29,440
Speaker 1: a lot of areas is very helpful. And all the

211
00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:32,040
Speaker 1: border patrol officers that I've spoken to are quite supportive

212
00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:36,520
Speaker 1: of President Trump. That's including border patrol that has about

213
00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:40,360
Speaker 1: a twenty five percent of border patrol or veterans and

214
00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:44,680
Speaker 1: about thirty percent I believe or Latino and they're all

215
00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:50,200
Speaker 1: very supportive of President Trump's overall approach to the border.

216
00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:52,080
Speaker 1: Feelings in the border, and you know, they understand what

217
00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:54,040
Speaker 1: the mission said is and what's going on down there.

218
00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:57,640
Speaker 1: But this is big. I mean, if he can get

219
00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:01,920
Speaker 1: if he can get even a up one hundred miles

220
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:04,040
Speaker 1: of wall built, now, it's going to be challenging the courts.

221
00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:05,959
Speaker 1: It's going to be challenged the courts. I have to wonder, though,

222
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:09,120
Speaker 1: at what point, uh, you know, at what point is

223
00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:13,360
Speaker 1: the executive branch going to say that, you know, we're

224
00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:16,720
Speaker 1: not going to be constrained in day to day actions

225
00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:20,280
Speaker 1: that are within our purview by a solitary federal judge

226
00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:24,240
Speaker 1: somewhere that you know, you're gonna have a universal injunction

227
00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:28,240
Speaker 1: from some judge who's gonna say you can't do this.

228
00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:31,720
Speaker 1: Federal government's not allowed to all the things one judge

229
00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:36,280
Speaker 1: and to say sorry, you know, I I gotta wonder

230
00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:40,080
Speaker 1: at what point, at what point does the administration say, Okay,

231
00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:43,160
Speaker 1: we'll see you in court, but we're we're not going

232
00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:48,440
Speaker 1: to we are not going to concede that a federal judge.

233
00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:49,920
Speaker 1: You know, what if a federal judge says that the

234
00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:53,080
Speaker 1: president's uh, you're not allowed, not allowed to sign a bill,

235
00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:55,720
Speaker 1: not allowed to sign bills anymore, you know, the president

236
00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:58,920
Speaker 1: under some interpretation of the Procedure Act, you know, the

237
00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:00,960
Speaker 1: president's not allowed to sign a any more laws. Sorry,

238
00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:05,040
Speaker 1: Is the executive branch going to respect that and say, yeah, sure,

239
00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:08,200
Speaker 1: the President's not the president anymore? What if a federal

240
00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:13,120
Speaker 1: judge says that the that the president United States, all

241
00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:16,320
Speaker 1: of the laws passed while he's in office, everything he

242
00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:18,320
Speaker 1: signed is null and void because he's not really the

243
00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:22,760
Speaker 1: president because of Russia collusion. I mean, federal judge could

244
00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:25,720
Speaker 1: could take that opinion. I mean they've they've taken opinions

245
00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:29,320
Speaker 1: that are obviously wrong on other matters of executive branch

246
00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:33,640
Speaker 1: activity under Trump. So what happens then, is the administration

247
00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:36,280
Speaker 1: really obligated to just say, yeah, you know what, you're right?

248
00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:40,720
Speaker 1: Not even and I'm not saying that they just ignore entirely.

249
00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:44,280
Speaker 1: They go to court, but you know, pending pending review

250
00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:47,400
Speaker 1: is no longer going to just be okay, you say,

251
00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:50,120
Speaker 1: we can't do this, So let's wait nine months, let's

252
00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:52,600
Speaker 1: wait a year as this makes its way through the courts,

253
00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:58,520
Speaker 1: so that a higher court not packed with Obama appointed lunatics,

254
00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:04,920
Speaker 1: you know, leftist uh, leftist activists in judges robes, is

255
00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:06,720
Speaker 1: not in place to just say yeah, sure, you know,

256
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:10,360
Speaker 1: we're hashtag resistance. You know. I think at some point

257
00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:14,000
Speaker 1: the administration gets gets to a level or they say, um, sorry,

258
00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:17,480
Speaker 1: you know, we're we're gonna we'll meet you in court

259
00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:19,720
Speaker 1: on this one, and if we're found to have overstep,

260
00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:23,680
Speaker 1: we'll stop. But you cannot tie the hands of the

261
00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:27,440
Speaker 1: executive branch on any matter you want, for pure for

262
00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:30,080
Speaker 1: pure political spite just because you happen to be a

263
00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:34,160
Speaker 1: federal judge. And you know, maybe maybe this, maybe what

264
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:36,080
Speaker 1: I'm saying isn't the answer. But if that's not the answer,

265
00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:37,680
Speaker 1: then you know what has to be the answer. Start

266
00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:43,280
Speaker 1: impeaching federal judges. You got to start having consequences for

267
00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:48,960
Speaker 1: the lawlessness of left wing judges on the bench who clearly,

268
00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:51,680
Speaker 1: and you see it, an opinion after opinion, and they

269
00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:57,240
Speaker 1: can overturned time and again, clearly view their role as

270
00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:03,760
Speaker 1: stopping Trump from enacting policy and using his executive authority.

271
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:07,679
Speaker 1: And that's not their job. So if they are betraying

272
00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:11,080
Speaker 1: their offices, they're betraying the power entrusted to them as

273
00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:16,720
Speaker 1: federal judges by viewing their role as hashtag resistance in

274
00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:19,439
Speaker 1: judges robes. And you're going to see it on this

275
00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:22,360
Speaker 1: wall because you know, it's it's not the wall so

276
00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:26,199
Speaker 1: much that bothers the Libs. It's that tramp, although it

277
00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:28,960
Speaker 1: does it does certainly bother them. And also keep in

278
00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:31,879
Speaker 1: mind that once that thing goes up and illegal crossings

279
00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:36,360
Speaker 1: go down in sector after sector. Let's just remind ourselves

280
00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:39,280
Speaker 1: of how many journalists wolves don't work. Wolves don't work.

281
00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:41,200
Speaker 1: The dumbest talking point you've ever heard in your life,

282
00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:46,480
Speaker 1: were repeated ad nauseum on CNN and MSNBC. But there

283
00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:50,560
Speaker 1: must be consequences for this judicial activism that's meant to

284
00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:55,320
Speaker 1: just stymy Trump. They are terrified, really, I mean the Democrats,

285
00:17:55,359 --> 00:17:59,760
Speaker 1: the left are terrified that Trump will follow through on

286
00:17:59,840 --> 00:18:04,439
Speaker 1: this promise, proving that their claims that he was it

287
00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:06,760
Speaker 1: was all a fraud. He never intended to build a wall,

288
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:09,440
Speaker 1: and that he was just going to betray his base

289
00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:13,000
Speaker 1: was wrong, that they were, that they were wrong, and

290
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:19,199
Speaker 1: perhaps they were lying. So that's why they, for political

291
00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:23,000
Speaker 1: reasons for winning in twenty twenty, they're going to do

292
00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:25,720
Speaker 1: everything they can to stop construction of this wall because

293
00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:29,800
Speaker 1: if Trump, if he in my mind, if Trump follows

294
00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:32,879
Speaker 1: through on this promise, he could withstand anything for reelection,

295
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:36,960
Speaker 1: including a recession. I think if he gets the wall built,

296
00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:39,880
Speaker 1: he could even get reelected if we hit a recession.

297
00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:44,080
Speaker 1: That's how important this is. Right back, there is no

298
00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:50,440
Speaker 1: divide among scientists. Less than two percent of climate scientists

299
00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:54,240
Speaker 1: are skeptical about climate change. We have twelve years from

300
00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:58,520
Speaker 1: twenty eighteen until twenty and thirty to either address this

301
00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:01,560
Speaker 1: or if we're going to have a versable damage. There

302
00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:05,080
Speaker 1: is a growing danger that the ice cap will melt

303
00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:07,560
Speaker 1: in Greenland and we will have you know, there won't

304
00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:10,199
Speaker 1: be a big ice cap in the summer UH, and

305
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:12,640
Speaker 1: that the net result of that is that we're going

306
00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:15,080
Speaker 1: to have a rise in sea levels UH that will

307
00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:19,000
Speaker 1: be significant coming from Greenland and added to other sources

308
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:22,480
Speaker 1: of new new water, higher water, we could have cities

309
00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:27,840
Speaker 1: in the United States engulfed UH and floods or or

310
00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:36,640
Speaker 1: gergen um or a climate change from Nixon, Ford and Reagan, Melton,

311
00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:42,000
Speaker 1: Greenland and were gurgling gurgan over there at sea and

312
00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:44,240
Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, he's a he's a climate

313
00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:49,280
Speaker 1: change guy. Climate climate catastrophe, climate crisis. I think that's

314
00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:54,240
Speaker 1: what they've settled on more recently. I pose this to

315
00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:56,960
Speaker 1: you again. I think any fair minded person could ask

316
00:19:56,960 --> 00:19:59,119
Speaker 1: this question and would have the same reaction I did

317
00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:02,920
Speaker 1: to it, which is, how how crazy are they allowed

318
00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:04,520
Speaker 1: to get before we can just tell them that we're

319
00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:08,000
Speaker 1: not We're not going to listen to this anymore. Cities

320
00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:11,959
Speaker 1: are going to be underwater. Why would anyone believe that

321
00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:16,240
Speaker 1: by the time the cities would actually be underwater? I mean, yeah,

322
00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:19,040
Speaker 1: in five hundred years and five thousand years. I don't know. Maybe,

323
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:22,679
Speaker 1: but then we'll have you know, floating floating buildings or something,

324
00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:24,919
Speaker 1: or you know, or we'll have a way to create

325
00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:29,359
Speaker 1: giant hair dryers in a thousand years that basically like

326
00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:32,800
Speaker 1: mop up all the excess moisture. Who knows, you don't know.

327
00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:36,800
Speaker 1: Maybe my giant hair dryer ideas probably about as sound

328
00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:41,200
Speaker 1: as the science from that movie Armageddon. I don't want

329
00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:44,639
Speaker 1: to clothe my eyes. You don't talking about Mark. You

330
00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:49,600
Speaker 1: saw that one, that's right, the animals, the animal crackers scene.

331
00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:53,040
Speaker 1: We all remember it. So uh yeah, man, I look,

332
00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:56,960
Speaker 1: Gergan's over there. Everyone has to has to march to

333
00:20:57,040 --> 00:21:01,040
Speaker 1: the same crazy climate tune over there or shittys under

334
00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:05,440
Speaker 1: irreversible dammers. They were saying this ten years ago, there's

335
00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:07,359
Speaker 1: like this ten years before that. How many times we

336
00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:09,120
Speaker 1: have to go through a ten years cycle? And they're wrong.

337
00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:14,520
Speaker 1: And even if we did everything that they think they

338
00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:18,399
Speaker 1: want to do, it wouldn't do anything unless you're going

339
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:23,280
Speaker 1: to invade India and China and tell them to stop carbonizing.

340
00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:26,760
Speaker 1: I mean, that's another part of this, the restriction on

341
00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:30,359
Speaker 1: wealth creation in the third world, that you have to

342
00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:34,360
Speaker 1: be okay with In order to make a serious dent

343
00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:38,200
Speaker 1: in CO two emissions, I mean, to really turn around

344
00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:42,840
Speaker 1: CO two emissions, you would have to tell the third world, hey,

345
00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:47,800
Speaker 1: you're not allowed to go through the same processes of

346
00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:52,639
Speaker 1: wealth creation and the attendant prosperity for your people that

347
00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:56,080
Speaker 1: we did in the developed world. Oh and so they're

348
00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:58,080
Speaker 1: aware of this, and that's why I guess what we

349
00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:02,600
Speaker 1: start doing Global Marxism, the redistribution of wealth from the

350
00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:07,280
Speaker 1: First world as penance, as a as a form of

351
00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:09,919
Speaker 1: it's like in indulgence back in the day in the

352
00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:12,959
Speaker 1: Catholic Church, right, we would pay off the third world

353
00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:16,600
Speaker 1: because we've gotten so rich putting all this CO two

354
00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:18,879
Speaker 1: in the air, which is now I mean just that

355
00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:21,639
Speaker 1: they call CO two, which is a naturally occurring gas,

356
00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:27,359
Speaker 1: which is a small percentage of the overall atmosphere. I

357
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:29,240
Speaker 1: think it's less than I don't want to say it.

358
00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:31,440
Speaker 1: It's definitely less than two percent, and I don't want

359
00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:32,680
Speaker 1: to say what the exact numbers off the top of

360
00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:34,679
Speaker 1: my heads. I forget Producer Mark, tell me how much

361
00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:38,879
Speaker 1: CO two? What percentage of our atmosphere is? In fact?

362
00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:41,520
Speaker 1: CO two, if you would please, because I'll lose my

363
00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:47,280
Speaker 1: train of thought otherwise. But these these changes in the designation,

364
00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:49,760
Speaker 1: that changes in the rhetoric. You know, this is all.

365
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:53,199
Speaker 1: This is all because they keep getting it wrong and

366
00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:54,520
Speaker 1: they have to come up with a new This is

367
00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:59,720
Speaker 1: narrative creation in real time. And I just when it

368
00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:05,600
Speaker 1: comes to individuals changing their behavior. You know, I I

369
00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:07,679
Speaker 1: am forced by the City of New York. I know

370
00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:09,720
Speaker 1: you guys get I get so bitter about this, but

371
00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:15,640
Speaker 1: I hate recycling. I freaking hate recycling. It's so stupid.

372
00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:18,160
Speaker 1: It is such a waste of everybody's time. But there

373
00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:21,280
Speaker 1: I am washing out my milk, my milk carton and

374
00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:23,320
Speaker 1: like putting it in the recycling band of blah BLI

375
00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:25,120
Speaker 1: blah blah blah blah. Way, what is the CEO two?

376
00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:27,880
Speaker 1: It seems like less than one percent? Okay, I said

377
00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:29,840
Speaker 1: less than two Yeah, less than one percent. There we go,

378
00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:32,760
Speaker 1: Thank you, producer mark less than one percent of the the atmosphere.

379
00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:36,040
Speaker 1: We really think that a minor percentage change and less

380
00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:41,120
Speaker 1: than one percent of the world's atmosphere is worth All

381
00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:45,240
Speaker 1: of this, all this uh you know, a hubbub, All

382
00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:49,879
Speaker 1: this all this noise from the left, I mean, CNN

383
00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:54,720
Speaker 1: is is like doing the equivalent of reading war and

384
00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:58,840
Speaker 1: Peace in its entirety on air, except it's about the climate,

385
00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:05,919
Speaker 1: and we are basing this on what exactly. The people

386
00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:07,760
Speaker 1: that are the most vocal about it won't even change

387
00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:11,720
Speaker 1: their own behavior. Look at what they do. I think

388
00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:14,119
Speaker 1: it was recently one of the you know, the British

389
00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:16,280
Speaker 1: Royal family, and I think all that British Royal family

390
00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:19,080
Speaker 1: stuff is ridiculous. I know people get all, oh, but

391
00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:21,719
Speaker 1: but they're so fancy and they're like a part of

392
00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:27,680
Speaker 1: a tradition for UK and all this other it's so no, no,

393
00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:30,479
Speaker 1: I'm not into it. I don't like it. It's weird.

394
00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:37,400
Speaker 1: Not into monarchies. Um, not into people hiring family members either,

395
00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:42,720
Speaker 1: but uh, you know for political from elected office. But anyway,

396
00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:47,600
Speaker 1: there's that's a conversation for another time. Uh. This stuff

397
00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:50,240
Speaker 1: that people like David Gergen is saying is just manifestly

398
00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:54,600
Speaker 1: in saying, but this is what is expected of you,

399
00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:56,720
Speaker 1: this is what you're told to do. I will say

400
00:24:56,720 --> 00:25:01,119
Speaker 1: that there's a there's a we need a climate, and

401
00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:02,679
Speaker 1: maybe this would be the But the problem is if

402
00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:04,199
Speaker 1: I wrote this book, they would say, first of all,

403
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:05,879
Speaker 1: I have to take time off from doing things like

404
00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:08,280
Speaker 1: this show, which I love. So that's a no one

405
00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:10,960
Speaker 1: has really written on the right, and someone's going to

406
00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:12,800
Speaker 1: send me a link to a book that has ten

407
00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:15,560
Speaker 1: Amazon reviews and has been read by like thirty people.

408
00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:18,080
Speaker 1: So please don't do that. Okay, I can do an

409
00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:20,680
Speaker 1: Amazon search too. On climate change, no one has written

410
00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:31,439
Speaker 1: the equipped, the game changing conservative perspective on climate change

411
00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:34,080
Speaker 1: in book form. Yet, you know, no, we need we

412
00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:39,159
Speaker 1: need a an inconvenient truth from the right. You know,

413
00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:43,440
Speaker 1: we need something that becomes a cultural and political phenomenon

414
00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:48,480
Speaker 1: that is the argument against this crazy that will reach everyone,

415
00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:52,639
Speaker 1: that everyone can understand and work with and and rely

416
00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:54,959
Speaker 1: on for the facts that it presents, but also the

417
00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:58,239
Speaker 1: argument that it makes. We don't really have that, you know.

418
00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:02,800
Speaker 1: You you see, here's a examples you have, you know,

419
00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:06,600
Speaker 1: Jonah Goldberg with liberal fascism. I mean that book, all

420
00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:08,639
Speaker 1: of a sudden people realize, Hold on a second, the

421
00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:11,880
Speaker 1: fascists were leftists. I mean history proves this, and yeah,

422
00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:14,040
Speaker 1: there's national socialists and people have been aware of this

423
00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:16,480
Speaker 1: for a while, but that book was a was a

424
00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:23,800
Speaker 1: conversation changer on that issue. And Culter Audios America on immigration,

425
00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:27,760
Speaker 1: illegal immigration specifically and the Wall. That book was a

426
00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:30,040
Speaker 1: conversation changer. And I've said to you it's really why

427
00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:34,399
Speaker 1: Trump became president. So whether you know what lover or

428
00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:36,880
Speaker 1: don't lover her, you guys all know, I think she's

429
00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:40,760
Speaker 1: pretty great. But you know, and Culter is the single

430
00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:43,440
Speaker 1: author who is probably most responsible for the rise of

431
00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:45,280
Speaker 1: Trump to the presidency. And also whether you love that

432
00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:48,000
Speaker 1: or not, I leave that to you. But there are

433
00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:50,919
Speaker 1: other books that are like this that are changed. You know,

434
00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:56,560
Speaker 1: Whittaker Chambers Witness. That's a masterpiece. But that changed national

435
00:26:56,640 --> 00:27:02,000
Speaker 1: perception about communist infiltration of America. It was real, it

436
00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:05,400
Speaker 1: was happening, it was systematic. You know, we don't have

437
00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:07,840
Speaker 1: that for climate change yet, and we need that. I mean,

438
00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:10,200
Speaker 1: we need someone who goes, look, here are the predictions

439
00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:12,639
Speaker 1: they've made. Here's all the quotes, here the you know,

440
00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:14,520
Speaker 1: even when they when they start out, you know, Gergan

441
00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:22,480
Speaker 1: goes ours, there's no where or separation or science community weber, uh,

442
00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:24,919
Speaker 1: well except for the two percent of scientists. Well, do

443
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:28,400
Speaker 1: two percent of scientists not believe in gravity? Do two

444
00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:32,200
Speaker 1: percent of scientists? Uh, not believe that the world is round?

445
00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:37,240
Speaker 1: Because if two percent of scientists think that climate change

446
00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:41,000
Speaker 1: alarmism is not supported by the science and is in

447
00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:44,520
Speaker 1: fact nuts. Shouldn't we do a little bit of investigation

448
00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:46,720
Speaker 1: into why that is instead of saying, well, regard or

449
00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:50,159
Speaker 1: regarding our three eight percent or ninety eight, there's ninety

450
00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:54,399
Speaker 1: rush eight, which there's one hundred, except there's two and

451
00:27:54,680 --> 00:28:00,520
Speaker 1: two percent or two hundred ninety eight, we're I I'm sorry,

452
00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:03,159
Speaker 1: but I just will never forget being on panels at

453
00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:06,720
Speaker 1: them and they're like, wait, wait, everybody be quiet, gurgling

454
00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:13,280
Speaker 1: Gurgen has some political insights to share contrens Democrats from

455
00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:17,359
Speaker 1: Reager Niction forward. So it's like, who is this guy?

456
00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:20,359
Speaker 1: I know he's worked for every presidents in Zabraham Lincoln,

457
00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:22,840
Speaker 1: but I really just don't I really just don't think

458
00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:25,200
Speaker 1: I need to hear this. But we need that, though,

459
00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:27,359
Speaker 1: and someone has to someone has to step up and

460
00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:30,680
Speaker 1: do it, and preferably what it really has to be

461
00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:37,040
Speaker 1: is a person who understands the messaging and the political fight,

462
00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:40,520
Speaker 1: and probably teaming up with somebody who, in a way

463
00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:46,160
Speaker 1: that is undeniable, has the background and facility and capacity

464
00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:49,920
Speaker 1: to understand the full scope of the science. You know,

465
00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:52,040
Speaker 1: I wish there's a way I could I could help

466
00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:54,680
Speaker 1: this come about, but this needs to be done. There

467
00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:58,160
Speaker 1: are trillions of dollars at stake because of this insanity

468
00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:02,600
Speaker 1: from or Left, literally trillions of dollars. And they still

469
00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:05,160
Speaker 1: tell us all this stuff. They still keep claiming that

470
00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:08,920
Speaker 1: if we don't make massive changes to our lifestyles, if

471
00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:10,600
Speaker 1: we don't do all these things at the telling us

472
00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:14,760
Speaker 1: we have to do, you know, the world's going to end.

473
00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:18,720
Speaker 1: This is what they're saying. The world is going to end.

474
00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:24,640
Speaker 1: Unless you believe that Ocasio Cortez knows how to remake

475
00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:27,840
Speaker 1: the American economy to save the world and make it better.

476
00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:30,000
Speaker 1: And if you believe that, well then you probably deserve

477
00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:32,080
Speaker 1: to live in the crappy country that she's going to create.

478
00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:36,800
Speaker 1: That's just this is it's a republic if we can

479
00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:40,320
Speaker 1: keep it. It's a capitalist, prosperous society if we're not

480
00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:42,440
Speaker 1: too stupid to let it keep doing what it does.

481
00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:45,800
Speaker 1: But that's you know, with all these little socialists running around,

482
00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:48,720
Speaker 1: that's increasingly that's increasingly a problem. The truth is that

483
00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:52,680
Speaker 1: these storms that are hitting the Caribbean with this intense

484
00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:59,360
Speaker 1: magnitude are historic, unprecedented, and these storms are man made.

485
00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:03,680
Speaker 1: Storm the Virgin Islands was hit by two Category five

486
00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:08,760
Speaker 1: storms only two years ago while President Trump indeed was

487
00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:13,040
Speaker 1: our president. The people who are most vulnerable to these

488
00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:17,120
Speaker 1: man made storms are the ones who, in all cases

489
00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:21,160
Speaker 1: are not the contributing factors to the carbon emissions that

490
00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:25,000
Speaker 1: are causing these storms. These storms are being caused in

491
00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:31,080
Speaker 1: huge part because of capital US. North American capital and

492
00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:33,840
Speaker 1: places like the Virgin Islands and the Bahamas are the

493
00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:37,880
Speaker 1: ones that are most vulnerable to these things. You see, folks,

494
00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:41,520
Speaker 1: the developed world is responsible for this. That's what they

495
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:47,280
Speaker 1: developed world is creating these man made storms. There is

496
00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:52,360
Speaker 1: no evidence, it does not exist that any particular storm

497
00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:56,520
Speaker 1: is manmade. This is a complete fabrication. There is no

498
00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:59,920
Speaker 1: evidence for this at all. They say that overall global

499
00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:05,640
Speaker 1: overall global temperature is they're talking about a point zero

500
00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:08,600
Speaker 1: one degree rise over the last couple of years, and

501
00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:11,160
Speaker 1: that's going to Oh now, the storms are really crazy. There.

502
00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:13,960
Speaker 1: There have been storms for as long as there have

503
00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:17,120
Speaker 1: been storm systems. Okay, I mean this is but the

504
00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:19,080
Speaker 1: people going to be This was a professor at Emory.

505
00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:21,800
Speaker 1: But she's giving away a bit more of the game here,

506
00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:28,080
Speaker 1: which is that this is ultimately about a global Marxist approach.

507
00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:31,760
Speaker 1: And this is where the redistribution of wealth comes in,

508
00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:36,760
Speaker 1: because a developed economy for the last one hundred and

509
00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:41,800
Speaker 1: fifty years, an industrialized economy is inextricably linked, is in

510
00:31:41,880 --> 00:31:47,520
Speaker 1: fact built upon a foundation of carbon emission. So if

511
00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:51,760
Speaker 1: you can isolate carbon emission as destroying the planet, every

512
00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:55,560
Speaker 1: more developed, wealthy society in the world is going to

513
00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:59,120
Speaker 1: bear a greater share of that burden and therefore has

514
00:31:59,160 --> 00:32:06,040
Speaker 1: to pay the equivalent of environmental reparations to the developing

515
00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:10,280
Speaker 1: world to repair the damage that has been done to

516
00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:15,000
Speaker 1: the environment by a world where we have smartphones and

517
00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:19,680
Speaker 1: computers and everyone drives around in a very you know,

518
00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:24,120
Speaker 1: comfortable car with all kinds of electronics that can drive,

519
00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:26,240
Speaker 1: you know, for hundreds of thousands of miles pretty much

520
00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:28,240
Speaker 1: before it really falls apart. I mean the cars these days.

521
00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:30,520
Speaker 1: One of the problems of car industry has cars can

522
00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:34,080
Speaker 1: last twenty years easily, so, you know, but but to

523
00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:36,160
Speaker 1: leave in though and then play. People always think of

524
00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:38,320
Speaker 1: fossil fuels. Then they think, oh, it goes in the car,

525
00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:43,960
Speaker 1: maybe I'll just bicycle to work. Half half of oil

526
00:32:44,040 --> 00:32:49,320
Speaker 1: specifically is used in products, you know, from plastics to

527
00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:52,680
Speaker 1: petroleum jelly to so you are buying things all the

528
00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:56,120
Speaker 1: time that are reliant on fossil fuels in their very creation,

529
00:32:56,440 --> 00:33:00,040
Speaker 1: never mind in their transport or their refrigeration or of

530
00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:04,840
Speaker 1: the guys getting to work. This is an attack on capitalism.

531
00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:06,920
Speaker 1: You have to see it in those terms. You have

532
00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:10,040
Speaker 1: to understand why it is so essential to the left

533
00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:14,040
Speaker 1: that they can brainwash people and just just bludging them

534
00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:17,480
Speaker 1: into this belief that you know, CO two is a

535
00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:20,680
Speaker 1: global threat and we're all living on borrowed time unless

536
00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:23,600
Speaker 1: we hand the keys of our economy over to AOC,

537
00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:27,120
Speaker 1: which is that that's a terrifying thought. It should be

538
00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:31,320
Speaker 1: a terrifying thought for anyone that the people that are

539
00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:33,720
Speaker 1: pushing this the most that they don't know what the heck.

540
00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:35,600
Speaker 1: They don't know what they're talking about on the science,

541
00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:38,520
Speaker 1: and they don't understand the impact on the economy. And

542
00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:44,960
Speaker 1: what's perhaps even more frightening, they don't care. They have

543
00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:48,400
Speaker 1: a messianic vision of themselves here that they are saving

544
00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:52,200
Speaker 1: the planet. And therefore, if you really believe at pushing

545
00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:55,640
Speaker 1: this climate change nonsense, you're going to save the planet.

546
00:33:57,080 --> 00:33:59,760
Speaker 1: What would you not be willing to do? This is

547
00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:05,480
Speaker 1: the the challenge whenever you're dealing with extremism is that

548
00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:09,560
Speaker 1: the extremist is always able to justify any behavior because

549
00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:13,359
Speaker 1: they decontextualize their own thoughts and their own actions from

550
00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:17,000
Speaker 1: reality around them, and they create an alternative reality where

551
00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:20,879
Speaker 1: whatever they think is necessary must be done because of

552
00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:25,759
Speaker 1: the threat, whether it's Antifa with fighting against fascism or

553
00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:28,840
Speaker 1: a climate change alarmist with fighting against CO two in

554
00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:33,680
Speaker 1: the air, and the rest of us, the sane, rational

555
00:34:33,719 --> 00:34:36,359
Speaker 1: adult world look at them and say, what is wrong

556
00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:39,560
Speaker 1: with you people? What do you what are you not

557
00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:44,399
Speaker 1: able to understand here? Climate change is a religious belief.

558
00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:46,000
Speaker 1: I mean you can go back and do it. Do

559
00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:51,040
Speaker 1: an anthropological study of civilizations throughout history, and they have

560
00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:54,640
Speaker 1: their their creation myths, and they also have their end

561
00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:58,080
Speaker 1: of day's stories, all of them do. And you know

562
00:34:58,120 --> 00:35:00,680
Speaker 1: this ties deeply into the human psyche as well. You know,

563
00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:03,640
Speaker 1: we we want to believe or you know, our minds

564
00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:07,000
Speaker 1: attached to this notion that, uh, there could be an

565
00:35:07,040 --> 00:35:10,160
Speaker 1: end coming, because then it makes it feel like we

566
00:35:10,280 --> 00:35:15,319
Speaker 1: aren't so insignificant, because once we're gone, perhaps everything is gone. Right,

567
00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:17,560
Speaker 1: once we're gone, the whole world is going down. No,

568
00:35:17,760 --> 00:35:19,560
Speaker 1: the world is going to go on and on and on,

569
00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:23,920
Speaker 1: and we will be long since forgotten. There is a

570
00:35:25,880 --> 00:35:28,880
Speaker 1: soleopsism that is also at the heart of the psychology

571
00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:33,040
Speaker 1: of the climate change alarmists. You know this. This gives

572
00:35:33,040 --> 00:35:35,400
Speaker 1: them a greater sense, a greater sense of purpose in

573
00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:37,480
Speaker 1: their day to day they're fighting against climate change, but

574
00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:40,520
Speaker 1: also a purpose in the cosmos. Oh, everything is going

575
00:35:40,560 --> 00:35:44,439
Speaker 1: to end. No, it's not, folks, I'm here to tell you.

576
00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:52,719
Speaker 1: It's just nothing about It is not a bottle, it's

577
00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:58,640
Speaker 1: not about it's about costating. The US settleson the gig,

578
00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:02,880
Speaker 1: take us blaying, I'll sit out of my way. Was

579
00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:06,080
Speaker 1: and none. This is over in this tat of New York.

580
00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:11,400
Speaker 1: The room and puck detti. That's true. That's how I'm who.

581
00:36:11,480 --> 00:36:15,160
Speaker 1: I want this US Americans freedoms. You got the write

582
00:36:15,160 --> 00:36:16,840
Speaker 1: and do that. I have the right to do this.

583
00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:19,680
Speaker 1: That's why I do not like white libras a Democrats.

584
00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:22,120
Speaker 1: They are the worst owned this earth. A white liberal

585
00:36:22,480 --> 00:36:25,560
Speaker 1: and a Democrat wants to control you. That's what they

586
00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:28,840
Speaker 1: want to do. They are puck debting. So there you

587
00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:31,200
Speaker 1: had in Grand Central right here in New York City,

588
00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:36,960
Speaker 1: a an African American Trump twenty twenty supporter called in

589
00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:41,040
Speaker 1: this video exchange with a Democrat I believe also African

590
00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:44,200
Speaker 1: American Democrat. They're getting into the back and forth over

591
00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:47,880
Speaker 1: more or less you know, how could you be a

592
00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:51,360
Speaker 1: how could you be black in this country and support Trump?

593
00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:54,440
Speaker 1: That's what the Democrat was saying. And I want to

594
00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:58,920
Speaker 1: step back for a moment from the the the specifics

595
00:36:58,920 --> 00:37:01,759
Speaker 1: of the twenty twenty election and whether Trump has been

596
00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:04,760
Speaker 1: good or bad for the black community in this country.

597
00:37:04,760 --> 00:37:07,160
Speaker 1: I mean, you look at unemployment numbers, you look at

598
00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:12,560
Speaker 1: overall economic metrics, and those are clearly favorable for Trump,

599
00:37:12,640 --> 00:37:17,120
Speaker 1: specifically with African American and Latino communities. It's it's always

600
00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:19,319
Speaker 1: lost in the discussion about the Latino vote and how

601
00:37:19,320 --> 00:37:22,080
Speaker 1: Trump is such an anti Latino racist that you had

602
00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:26,080
Speaker 1: almost thirty percent of Latino's vote for him in the

603
00:37:26,120 --> 00:37:28,799
Speaker 1: twenty sixteen election. Was I think twenty eight or twenty

604
00:37:28,840 --> 00:37:32,200
Speaker 1: nine percent overall, So that's a lot of people when

605
00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:35,200
Speaker 1: you added up nationally who are Latino and support Trump.

606
00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:41,560
Speaker 1: But the Democrats have to borrow one of their words

607
00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:51,799
Speaker 1: normalized what is and inherently and inherently unethical, And I

608
00:37:51,840 --> 00:37:55,960
Speaker 1: would argue irrational point of view, and that is that

609
00:37:56,120 --> 00:38:01,319
Speaker 1: you have there is an acceptable and aptible perspective to

610
00:38:01,400 --> 00:38:06,680
Speaker 1: have based upon one's ethnicity, skin color, national origin, and

611
00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:13,160
Speaker 1: that that should be replicated throughout society. On pain of

612
00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:19,279
Speaker 1: social ostracism, on being pushed out of your community, on

613
00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:24,799
Speaker 1: being cast out from whatever group you may mean. They

614
00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:26,400
Speaker 1: used to call them when I was in college, they

615
00:38:26,440 --> 00:38:28,440
Speaker 1: called it an affinity group. I don't know if that's

616
00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:30,480
Speaker 1: still a phrase that's used on college campuses, but an

617
00:38:30,520 --> 00:38:32,319
Speaker 1: affinity group was. You know, if you are a member

618
00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:35,759
Speaker 1: of the Latino Coalition or the African American Coalition, that

619
00:38:35,800 --> 00:38:38,400
Speaker 1: was your affinity group on a college campus. You you

620
00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:41,200
Speaker 1: are pushed out from that group if you think differently

621
00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:44,680
Speaker 1: about certain matters. And I do think it's so interesting

622
00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:48,759
Speaker 1: that it's not even issue by issue, it's not even

623
00:38:48,840 --> 00:38:51,600
Speaker 1: issue specific. It's you must support a democrat. Now we

624
00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:55,600
Speaker 1: know why. I mean, none of this is surprising to us.

625
00:38:56,160 --> 00:38:59,600
Speaker 1: And you will see this be a centerpiece. I mean, yeah,

626
00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:03,160
Speaker 1: they're gonna talk about free this and free that, and uh,

627
00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:07,080
Speaker 1: they're gonna be pushing the socialism that someone else will

628
00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:09,799
Speaker 1: pay for. And remember every time socialism has been tried

629
00:39:09,840 --> 00:39:13,640
Speaker 1: in any country it's always told to the majority that

630
00:39:13,719 --> 00:39:17,040
Speaker 1: someone else is going to pay. It's always that you know,

631
00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:19,200
Speaker 1: this isn't gonna cost you, It's going to cost somebody else,

632
00:39:19,239 --> 00:39:22,359
Speaker 1: which is why, at least for in a short term

633
00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:25,200
Speaker 1: sense and in a society where there are enough people

634
00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:30,200
Speaker 1: who can be fooled, it can be a powerful political appeal.

635
00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:33,000
Speaker 1: Someone else is gonna pay. You're gonna get all the

636
00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:36,759
Speaker 1: free stuff, someone else will pay for it. Uh. In

637
00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:40,440
Speaker 1: our country, though, in into twenty twenty, what you're going

638
00:39:40,440 --> 00:39:46,759
Speaker 1: to see is a focus on identity politics that is

639
00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:51,160
Speaker 1: the strongest it has it has ever been in the

640
00:39:51,239 --> 00:39:57,160
Speaker 1: sense of a negative focus toward the Republican Party, you know,

641
00:39:57,280 --> 00:40:00,800
Speaker 1: under the Obama administration and when President Obama was running

642
00:40:00,800 --> 00:40:04,040
Speaker 1: clearly identity politics. It's very powerful to have and and

643
00:40:04,239 --> 00:40:09,360
Speaker 1: this was understandable that you know, as an African American

644
00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:12,799
Speaker 1: in this country, the first black president. That's it. Look,

645
00:40:12,920 --> 00:40:16,080
Speaker 1: it is a compelling story. Let's just be honest about it.

646
00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:18,520
Speaker 1: It is. It's a compelling story. And I can understand

647
00:40:18,520 --> 00:40:23,200
Speaker 1: why the black community reacted in the way that it did,

648
00:40:23,200 --> 00:40:25,160
Speaker 1: not just the first time around, but the second time around.

649
00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:27,560
Speaker 1: Although the second time around for Obama's reelection. I do

650
00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:31,120
Speaker 1: think there's more of a casema that. Okay, well, but

651
00:40:31,280 --> 00:40:33,080
Speaker 1: was he a good president? I mean, forget about the

652
00:40:33,200 --> 00:40:36,279
Speaker 1: historic nature of it. Was he a good president? You're

653
00:40:36,280 --> 00:40:39,240
Speaker 1: going to have all that enthusiasm and energy to vote

654
00:40:39,400 --> 00:40:44,320
Speaker 1: for Obama is going to now be turned against Trump

655
00:40:44,520 --> 00:40:48,839
Speaker 1: in the next in this next election cycle. And you know,

656
00:40:48,840 --> 00:40:52,279
Speaker 1: with they tried to do enthusiasm for Hillary last time

657
00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:54,279
Speaker 1: around because people still thought of Trump as a joke.

658
00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:56,880
Speaker 1: But this isn't Trump as a joke. Vote for the

659
00:40:56,880 --> 00:41:00,360
Speaker 1: Democrat that was twenty sixteen, twenty twenty is going to

660
00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:05,600
Speaker 1: be Trump is an evil racist like Hitler, vote for

661
00:41:05,640 --> 00:41:08,920
Speaker 1: anyone other than him. And if you are a minority

662
00:41:09,080 --> 00:41:12,640
Speaker 1: and you vote for Trump, there you know you are

663
00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:16,120
Speaker 1: part of his evil. You are helping to destroy this

664
00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:19,919
Speaker 1: country and oppress people from within your own, your own

665
00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:24,840
Speaker 1: community of color. That's that's going to be the narrative storyline.

666
00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:28,839
Speaker 1: It's going to be this deeply negative approach to all

667
00:41:28,880 --> 00:41:35,600
Speaker 1: things Trump. And I would just note that they start

668
00:41:35,640 --> 00:41:39,520
Speaker 1: with a fallacy here, and the fallacy is Democrats start

669
00:41:39,520 --> 00:41:44,640
Speaker 1: with a fallacy that you should think about your relationship

670
00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:48,920
Speaker 1: to the state, You should think about politics very broadly

671
00:41:49,160 --> 00:41:52,680
Speaker 1: based upon your skin color, first and foremost, that that

672
00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:56,560
Speaker 1: is a determining factor in how you would vote, how

673
00:41:56,640 --> 00:42:00,480
Speaker 1: you think, how you think of things like as varied

674
00:42:00,600 --> 00:42:08,160
Speaker 1: as abortion, border security, healthcare, tax rates, foreign policy. That

675
00:42:08,280 --> 00:42:12,680
Speaker 1: skin color should be a defining factor for human beings

676
00:42:12,760 --> 00:42:16,839
Speaker 1: in how they approach all these different issues. And it's

677
00:42:16,880 --> 00:42:25,120
Speaker 1: an astonishingly in my view, it's an astonishingly destructive approach

678
00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:29,200
Speaker 1: for this country to our political fabric. I think all

679
00:42:29,320 --> 00:42:33,240
Speaker 1: this talk about how divisive things are, there is really

680
00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:39,040
Speaker 1: I think you could argue no area of our politics

681
00:42:39,120 --> 00:42:43,160
Speaker 1: that is more divisive, and largely because of the way

682
00:42:43,160 --> 00:42:46,600
Speaker 1: it is exploited by the ruling class. There's nothing that

683
00:42:46,719 --> 00:42:50,319
Speaker 1: is more divisive than racial politics in this country. Which

684
00:42:50,360 --> 00:42:53,200
Speaker 1: is why you know CNN likes to fan the flames

685
00:42:53,200 --> 00:42:56,839
Speaker 1: of this literally in the cases of the coverage and

686
00:42:56,880 --> 00:42:59,919
Speaker 1: the and the enthusiasm and the real encouragement that many

687
00:43:00,239 --> 00:43:04,400
Speaker 1: CNI and reporters had for the Black Lives Matter movement,

688
00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:08,400
Speaker 1: even when there were instances of it burning down neighborhoods

689
00:43:08,400 --> 00:43:12,040
Speaker 1: and looting stores, CNN was, oh, look at this, this

690
00:43:12,120 --> 00:43:15,440
Speaker 1: is this is people speaking out against police suppression and violence.

691
00:43:16,840 --> 00:43:20,719
Speaker 1: But we should never accept that the way that they

692
00:43:20,880 --> 00:43:24,760
Speaker 1: approach this is okay. And more, we should never accept

693
00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:31,080
Speaker 1: that the basic, the basic approach that Democrats insist on

694
00:43:32,040 --> 00:43:35,960
Speaker 1: from minorities is you are Asian, you are Black, you

695
00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:40,440
Speaker 1: are Hispanic, you're anything. Therefore you must vote Democrat. And

696
00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:43,240
Speaker 1: if you don't, no one wants to hear your reasons.

697
00:43:43,440 --> 00:43:47,439
Speaker 1: No one wants to have a conversation. You are voted out,

698
00:43:47,480 --> 00:43:51,719
Speaker 1: so to speak. You are cast out from your community,

699
00:43:52,800 --> 00:43:56,759
Speaker 1: so damaging, and they do it so frequently that we

700
00:43:56,800 --> 00:43:59,440
Speaker 1: almost don't notice it anymore. And I'm just I'm imploring

701
00:43:59,480 --> 00:44:03,160
Speaker 1: you to keep that in your mind as we enter

702
00:44:03,200 --> 00:44:08,120
Speaker 1: what's going to be the most contentious election. It's I'm

703
00:44:08,160 --> 00:44:10,239
Speaker 1: not saying it's the most important. You know, everybody says

704
00:44:10,239 --> 00:44:12,480
Speaker 1: no, No No, I do believe this will be the most

705
00:44:12,600 --> 00:44:18,280
Speaker 1: contentious election cycle of my lifetime. You will never see

706
00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:23,799
Speaker 1: a nastier, more bitterly fought political contest than Trump versus

707
00:44:23,840 --> 00:44:27,360
Speaker 1: whoever's up against him. Because they're trying to prop up

708
00:44:27,400 --> 00:44:30,240
Speaker 1: a whole squad of losers with these this Democrat field,

709
00:44:30,280 --> 00:44:33,000
Speaker 1: most notably Joe Biden, and the only way they really

710
00:44:33,040 --> 00:44:35,919
Speaker 1: think they're gonna win is to just heap so much

711
00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:40,160
Speaker 1: trash on top of Trump that it's it's it's overwhelming.

712
00:44:41,200 --> 00:44:42,680
Speaker 1: And one of the ways they're going to try to

713
00:44:42,680 --> 00:44:46,920
Speaker 1: create that enthusiasm for dumping on Trump is going to

714
00:44:46,960 --> 00:44:51,440
Speaker 1: be by exploiting racial division and playing to identity politics.

715
00:44:53,960 --> 00:45:01,680
Speaker 1: Do you correctly say you have to a little bit?

716
00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:07,279
Speaker 1: Excuse me? Could somebody please silence the crying baby. I

717
00:45:07,360 --> 00:45:10,520
Speaker 1: know I look like a cuddly grandpa, but I'm trying

718
00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:13,920
Speaker 1: to spread Marxism here. It's hard work. I get tired,

719
00:45:14,160 --> 00:45:18,000
Speaker 1: I get grouchy. No no babies, No little capitalist babies

720
00:45:18,040 --> 00:45:22,920
Speaker 1: making noise in the background. Please, only little Marxist babies

721
00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:29,640
Speaker 1: with you know, hammer and sickle Onesie's on. Please. Bernie Sanders, Man,

722
00:45:29,760 --> 00:45:34,040
Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders still a top contender for the for the race.

723
00:45:34,719 --> 00:45:37,440
Speaker 1: It's it's amazing, It really is. You have to think

724
00:45:37,440 --> 00:45:40,600
Speaker 1: to yourself, what what is this country coming to when

725
00:45:41,360 --> 00:45:46,000
Speaker 1: someone with so little connection to the reality of our

726
00:45:46,040 --> 00:45:51,880
Speaker 1: economy and such a a completely inadequate and inadequate understanding

727
00:45:51,920 --> 00:45:57,200
Speaker 1: and unacceptable understanding of basic you know micro economics, right,

728
00:45:57,239 --> 00:46:00,400
Speaker 1: which is a study of the specifics of how economics

729
00:46:00,440 --> 00:46:04,200
Speaker 1: plays out in transactions and for businesses, and you know

730
00:46:04,680 --> 00:46:07,480
Speaker 1: this is this is the basics of supplying demand. Uh.

731
00:46:07,520 --> 00:46:10,640
Speaker 1: Someone who doesn't understand this at all has has no

732
00:46:11,560 --> 00:46:14,560
Speaker 1: connection to the realities of how an economy functions. He's

733
00:46:14,600 --> 00:46:18,000
Speaker 1: still a very viable presidential candidate. It's it's madness. But

734
00:46:18,160 --> 00:46:19,920
Speaker 1: you know, I know that we're still supposed to be

735
00:46:19,960 --> 00:46:26,439
Speaker 1: focused on the on the gun issue, and I don't

736
00:46:26,440 --> 00:46:29,040
Speaker 1: think anything is going to change. Although we'll have my

737
00:46:29,040 --> 00:46:31,520
Speaker 1: friend David Harsani joining here to second, we'll talk about

738
00:46:31,719 --> 00:46:35,880
Speaker 1: universal background checks. There is this story that the Odessa

739
00:46:35,920 --> 00:46:40,200
Speaker 1: shooter got a firearm from a private sale after being

740
00:46:40,280 --> 00:46:45,000
Speaker 1: denied a firearm through a background check. Uh, you know,

741
00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:47,800
Speaker 1: there is there is that story. I would just say

742
00:46:50,040 --> 00:46:53,879
Speaker 1: that we are going to eventually reach a point where

743
00:46:53,880 --> 00:46:57,799
Speaker 1: we've heard every talking point from the Democrats so many

744
00:46:57,840 --> 00:47:00,480
Speaker 1: times that we are we are numb to it. And

745
00:47:00,480 --> 00:47:02,920
Speaker 1: then the question becomes, are we going to just say

746
00:47:03,040 --> 00:47:04,839
Speaker 1: enough as enough, well we'll just do something to shut

747
00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:07,399
Speaker 1: them up, or will we be able to tune it out.

748
00:47:07,520 --> 00:47:11,160
Speaker 1: I hope it is the latter, but there are If

749
00:47:11,160 --> 00:47:13,400
Speaker 1: you're looking at this from the piece by piece perspective

750
00:47:13,680 --> 00:47:19,799
Speaker 1: gun rights, uh, you know there's some loosening of restrictions

751
00:47:19,800 --> 00:47:22,240
Speaker 1: in Texas, and that there are places where you see

752
00:47:23,680 --> 00:47:26,880
Speaker 1: action being taken at the state level. And certainly the dcv.

753
00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:30,520
Speaker 1: Heller decision at the Supreme Court was very helpful to

754
00:47:30,560 --> 00:47:32,520
Speaker 1: the Second Amendment at the federal level, but it really

755
00:47:32,520 --> 00:47:35,120
Speaker 1: just kept a Second Amendment from being eradicated. I think

756
00:47:35,120 --> 00:47:37,839
Speaker 1: people need to remember that dcv. Heller just meant that

757
00:47:38,160 --> 00:47:40,920
Speaker 1: you do have the right as a law abiding citizen

758
00:47:41,400 --> 00:47:45,200
Speaker 1: to have a firearm in your home, and that and

759
00:47:45,239 --> 00:47:48,320
Speaker 1: that they can't just say no guns for you anywhere,

760
00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:51,560
Speaker 1: because it's a right. Okay, so that's but if that

761
00:47:51,719 --> 00:47:53,520
Speaker 1: wasn't a right, then there's no such thing as a

762
00:47:53,520 --> 00:47:56,240
Speaker 1: second and then the Second Amendment is is null and void.

763
00:47:56,600 --> 00:48:01,000
Speaker 1: So it was really taken from life support to intensive care.

764
00:48:01,080 --> 00:48:07,399
Speaker 1: But it was definitely a minimal, a minimal victory at

765
00:48:07,400 --> 00:48:09,520
Speaker 1: the corporate level, which is where I do think we

766
00:48:09,600 --> 00:48:14,680
Speaker 1: have to increasingly devote our attention because you know, democrats,

767
00:48:14,960 --> 00:48:18,719
Speaker 1: Democrats view the culture war and really the political war

768
00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:21,880
Speaker 1: that's going on in this country as an across the

769
00:48:21,960 --> 00:48:27,320
Speaker 1: board affair that they make no distinctions. There's no difference

770
00:48:27,360 --> 00:48:33,240
Speaker 1: to them whether they're pushing for corporate action, political government action,

771
00:48:33,360 --> 00:48:37,920
Speaker 1: they just want their way. And that's why you have

772
00:48:38,040 --> 00:48:41,640
Speaker 1: Walmart and Kroeger, for example, who are coming out and

773
00:48:41,680 --> 00:48:44,640
Speaker 1: saying they no longer want anyone to openly carry in

774
00:48:44,680 --> 00:48:47,879
Speaker 1: their stores. Now they have a right to do this,

775
00:48:47,960 --> 00:48:51,000
Speaker 1: but let's understand what this accomplishes. It accomplishes nothing from

776
00:48:51,040 --> 00:48:53,839
Speaker 1: the perspective of safety. I mean, there's no such thing

777
00:48:54,320 --> 00:48:56,719
Speaker 1: as a mass shooter or a criminal of any kind

778
00:48:56,719 --> 00:48:59,840
Speaker 1: who goes, oh wow, you mean Walmart would prefer I

779
00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:03,560
Speaker 1: don't open carry in the store. I guess I'm gonna

780
00:49:03,640 --> 00:49:06,840
Speaker 1: forget about my diabolical shooting plan. That's never gonna have

781
00:49:07,040 --> 00:49:13,080
Speaker 1: that that does not exist. And uh, you know, you

782
00:49:13,200 --> 00:49:17,680
Speaker 1: have the establishment of some of these or rather some

783
00:49:17,719 --> 00:49:20,600
Speaker 1: of these stores have established new rules where they are

784
00:49:20,719 --> 00:49:24,280
Speaker 1: limiting law biding gun owners in, you know, in their stores,

785
00:49:24,320 --> 00:49:26,360
Speaker 1: things like open carry. And now I know Walmart is

786
00:49:26,400 --> 00:49:30,839
Speaker 1: no longer going to sell handgun ammunition and it will

787
00:49:30,880 --> 00:49:35,960
Speaker 1: not sell small I think it's small rifle ammunition or something.

788
00:49:36,040 --> 00:49:38,759
Speaker 1: They said, I you know, not even clear on what

789
00:49:38,800 --> 00:49:40,839
Speaker 1: the what the specifics are of the restriction, but they're

790
00:49:40,840 --> 00:49:44,480
Speaker 1: restricting ammunition sales now in response in response to what

791
00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:47,839
Speaker 1: has happened here. This follows after Dick Sporting Goods has

792
00:49:47,920 --> 00:49:51,120
Speaker 1: also dramatically restricted firearms that will be sold, and Dick

793
00:49:51,200 --> 00:49:54,719
Speaker 1: Sporting Goods did pretty well sales wise. I think the

794
00:49:54,760 --> 00:49:58,520
Speaker 1: stock is actually up, so it used to be a

795
00:49:58,920 --> 00:50:02,480
Speaker 1: used at least be the percept that companies that take

796
00:50:02,560 --> 00:50:07,120
Speaker 1: action based upon the outrage mob will suffer the consequences

797
00:50:07,480 --> 00:50:12,480
Speaker 1: when normal Americans express their displeasure with them don't shut

798
00:50:12,600 --> 00:50:15,319
Speaker 1: But that doesn't seem to be the case anywhere. There's

799
00:50:15,360 --> 00:50:18,600
Speaker 1: been a shift. You see this with Nike and Colin Kaepernick,

800
00:50:18,600 --> 00:50:20,200
Speaker 1: and it's a different issue than the gun issue, but

801
00:50:21,000 --> 00:50:24,200
Speaker 1: they've gone very deep on the social justice side of things,

802
00:50:24,239 --> 00:50:27,560
Speaker 1: very publicly. And the fact of the matter is that

803
00:50:27,600 --> 00:50:31,040
Speaker 1: if you're not a social justice warrior, are you not

804
00:50:31,160 --> 00:50:33,680
Speaker 1: going to buy your dry fit running shorts from Nike

805
00:50:33,840 --> 00:50:36,320
Speaker 1: now because of Kaepernick? The answer, let's be honest, folks,

806
00:50:36,840 --> 00:50:39,120
Speaker 1: answer is probably that no, you're still gonna buy it.

807
00:50:39,920 --> 00:50:42,239
Speaker 1: And if you are a Walmart customer now because you

808
00:50:42,280 --> 00:50:44,719
Speaker 1: can't get your ammo there, are you not going to

809
00:50:44,840 --> 00:50:47,399
Speaker 1: go buy your ammunition from wal I mean, are sorry?

810
00:50:47,440 --> 00:50:49,640
Speaker 1: You're not going to go buy your milk forget your ammunition?

811
00:50:49,640 --> 00:50:53,120
Speaker 1: You can go buy your socks from Walmart. I think

812
00:50:53,120 --> 00:50:56,160
Speaker 1: the answer there once again is probably Nope, you're still

813
00:50:56,160 --> 00:51:02,239
Speaker 1: going to go. And so the risk tolerance, the corporate

814
00:51:02,280 --> 00:51:05,520
Speaker 1: calculation has shifted out. And this is what this is

815
00:51:05,560 --> 00:51:10,680
Speaker 1: the This is the type of incrementalism that the left

816
00:51:10,840 --> 00:51:13,799
Speaker 1: is trying to accomplish with the gun issue. But now

817
00:51:13,800 --> 00:51:16,600
Speaker 1: the corporate calculation is, look that the pro gun people

818
00:51:17,560 --> 00:51:19,400
Speaker 1: are still going to shop in our store if we

819
00:51:19,520 --> 00:51:21,600
Speaker 1: just say, look, can we you know, we don't want

820
00:51:21,600 --> 00:51:23,160
Speaker 1: any part We're not taking a position on it, we

821
00:51:23,200 --> 00:51:26,200
Speaker 1: just don't want any part of this. We're not going

822
00:51:26,239 --> 00:51:28,240
Speaker 1: to sell ammunition or we're not going to sell handguns

823
00:51:28,280 --> 00:51:32,120
Speaker 1: or whatever it may be, and the anti gun people

824
00:51:32,200 --> 00:51:36,520
Speaker 1: will leave us alone. So this then becomes the safer

825
00:51:36,600 --> 00:51:39,480
Speaker 1: option for them, even for a place like Walmart, that

826
00:51:39,680 --> 00:51:44,280
Speaker 1: I believe is generally associated, at least in the minds

827
00:51:44,320 --> 00:51:48,640
Speaker 1: of people on the coasts with more red state and

828
00:51:48,760 --> 00:51:51,560
Speaker 1: rural areas. Now, is that not if it's probably not

829
00:51:51,600 --> 00:51:53,759
Speaker 1: fair of Walmart's really just the biggest retailer. It's very

830
00:51:53,760 --> 00:51:57,200
Speaker 1: big in some inner city locations, and I understand that,

831
00:51:57,280 --> 00:52:00,440
Speaker 1: but people think of Walmart as you know, very all

832
00:52:00,480 --> 00:52:04,680
Speaker 1: American store that serves all kinds of communities, but especially

833
00:52:04,760 --> 00:52:06,960
Speaker 1: in a lot of rural communities, it's a it's almost

834
00:52:06,960 --> 00:52:09,320
Speaker 1: a superstore where you get all your stuff. There're not

835
00:52:09,360 --> 00:52:14,040
Speaker 1: gonna sell guns. So these companies now are changing there,

836
00:52:14,840 --> 00:52:17,800
Speaker 1: they're changing their risk parameters. And it's not necessarily that

837
00:52:17,840 --> 00:52:20,480
Speaker 1: they want to be woke. They just don't want to

838
00:52:20,520 --> 00:52:23,880
Speaker 1: get attacked by woke and they feel like our side

839
00:52:23,920 --> 00:52:29,880
Speaker 1: of this equation is less mobilized against them, you know,

840
00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:32,279
Speaker 1: or we won't mobilize against them just because they don't

841
00:52:32,320 --> 00:52:34,759
Speaker 1: want to get in the middle of this. And then

842
00:52:34,760 --> 00:52:36,440
Speaker 1: of course you have the other side of or you

843
00:52:36,480 --> 00:52:39,200
Speaker 1: have the additional side of this, where you know, San

844
00:52:39,239 --> 00:52:41,800
Speaker 1: Francisco is now declaring the nra AT a domestic terrorist

845
00:52:41,880 --> 00:52:46,959
Speaker 1: organization and people have completely lost their minds. They there's

846
00:52:47,000 --> 00:52:50,879
Speaker 1: so much, there's so much ignorance on the issue of

847
00:52:51,360 --> 00:52:53,919
Speaker 1: gun culture, the Second Amendment in this country, and I'm

848
00:52:54,000 --> 00:52:55,640
Speaker 1: I'm right in the midst of it here in a

849
00:52:55,640 --> 00:52:58,879
Speaker 1: place like New York City where if I can tell

850
00:52:58,920 --> 00:53:03,440
Speaker 1: you this, if I now, I couldn't legally open carry

851
00:53:03,520 --> 00:53:05,919
Speaker 1: in New York from my understanding of New York laws

852
00:53:05,960 --> 00:53:09,239
Speaker 1: under any circumstances, you can conceal carry a handgun if

853
00:53:09,239 --> 00:53:11,439
Speaker 1: you get a very tough to get permit and it's

854
00:53:11,480 --> 00:53:15,200
Speaker 1: really hard. Um. But let's just say if I could

855
00:53:15,239 --> 00:53:17,160
Speaker 1: open carry in New York, if that changed law and

856
00:53:17,160 --> 00:53:19,600
Speaker 1: I walk, people would look at me like I was

857
00:53:19,640 --> 00:53:21,440
Speaker 1: a threat and it might actually lead to an incident.

858
00:53:21,440 --> 00:53:24,759
Speaker 1: I mean, somebody might assume that I would have ill

859
00:53:24,760 --> 00:53:27,239
Speaker 1: intent if I were open carrying in this city and

860
00:53:27,360 --> 00:53:29,360
Speaker 1: they didn't think that I was a law enforcement officers

861
00:53:29,360 --> 00:53:33,719
Speaker 1: of some kind. So, you know, the cultural changes, the

862
00:53:33,800 --> 00:53:36,200
Speaker 1: corporate changes. Even though I don't think there are any

863
00:53:36,200 --> 00:53:38,600
Speaker 1: massive legal changes coming to the Second Amendment and to

864
00:53:38,640 --> 00:53:41,320
Speaker 1: the right to bear arms, there's all this other stuff

865
00:53:41,360 --> 00:53:44,160
Speaker 1: and the left is achieving that we'll get more into

866
00:53:44,200 --> 00:53:55,600
Speaker 1: this in just a moment. President. What is it define

867
00:53:55,680 --> 00:53:58,840
Speaker 1: what an assault weapon? Ass Yeah, well, the assault weapons

868
00:53:58,880 --> 00:54:00,200
Speaker 1: is where you can send my own amount of because

869
00:54:01,680 --> 00:54:07,400
Speaker 1: and also when you put in the high high capacities

870
00:54:07,800 --> 00:54:11,080
Speaker 1: on days, what is an assault weapon? Well, I would

871
00:54:11,120 --> 00:54:14,800
Speaker 1: say the team definitely qualified. But what is an assault weapon?

872
00:54:14,880 --> 00:54:18,960
Speaker 1: Can you define what an assault weapons? Got an interview?

873
00:54:19,719 --> 00:54:23,800
Speaker 1: I think you know it's the weapon that killed assault

874
00:54:23,840 --> 00:54:27,680
Speaker 1: weapon is the weapon that killed nine people, nine people

875
00:54:28,040 --> 00:54:31,759
Speaker 1: in Dayton in thirty second. Can you I just want

876
00:54:31,840 --> 00:54:34,239
Speaker 1: him to answer what an assault weapon is? Can you

877
00:54:34,280 --> 00:54:38,920
Speaker 1: define what an assault weapons? I certainly can't be legislation.

878
00:54:39,280 --> 00:54:44,239
Speaker 1: Can you define it? Can you define it? Uh? They're

879
00:54:44,280 --> 00:54:46,719
Speaker 1: having some trouble there defining what an assault weapon is,

880
00:54:47,120 --> 00:54:50,840
Speaker 1: which is not surprising, but they still want to ban them.

881
00:54:50,960 --> 00:54:53,880
Speaker 1: Our friend David Harsani joins now. He's the author of

882
00:54:54,080 --> 00:54:58,000
Speaker 1: First Freedom, A Ride through America's Enduring History with the Gun,

883
00:54:58,040 --> 00:55:01,960
Speaker 1: an excellent book on the history of guns in this country.

884
00:55:02,160 --> 00:55:04,200
Speaker 1: And also he's a senior editor at The Federalist. A

885
00:55:04,280 --> 00:55:07,560
Speaker 1: very excellent sight. Mister Harsan, You're great to have you back, sir,

886
00:55:08,239 --> 00:55:09,919
Speaker 1: good to be here. Thanks. All right, so let's let's

887
00:55:09,920 --> 00:55:12,920
Speaker 1: start with this. There seems to now just be this uh,

888
00:55:13,120 --> 00:55:17,239
Speaker 1: this push among particularly among the journos, but Democrats too,

889
00:55:17,320 --> 00:55:21,400
Speaker 1: Democrat lawmakers that the specifics don't really matter it, you know,

890
00:55:21,480 --> 00:55:26,160
Speaker 1: blah blah blah, assault, rifle, assault, you know, schmifele, it's

891
00:55:26,480 --> 00:55:28,800
Speaker 1: we just need to ban the guns to stop the violence.

892
00:55:29,760 --> 00:55:32,239
Speaker 1: Is this a change in anything you think? Is this

893
00:55:32,280 --> 00:55:36,160
Speaker 1: going to move the ball for them? No, it's not

894
00:55:36,880 --> 00:55:39,880
Speaker 1: right now. I think their plan is long term. You know,

895
00:55:40,440 --> 00:55:43,520
Speaker 1: as you just saw, people can't define assault weapons. And

896
00:55:43,600 --> 00:55:45,880
Speaker 1: that's I think in a way on purpose. I mean,

897
00:55:45,960 --> 00:55:48,000
Speaker 1: you want to have this elastic word that can mean

898
00:55:48,040 --> 00:55:50,560
Speaker 1: anything you want it to mean, so it becomes something

899
00:55:50,600 --> 00:55:53,040
Speaker 1: that's just the bad thing. You know, it's an evil

900
00:55:53,120 --> 00:55:57,960
Speaker 1: thing to have an assault weapon. And what do they mean, Well, basically,

901
00:55:57,960 --> 00:56:01,600
Speaker 1: it's just about aesthetics right now, and it's an incremental

902
00:56:01,600 --> 00:56:04,000
Speaker 1: way to get to every semi automatic weapon, which is

903
00:56:04,000 --> 00:56:07,040
Speaker 1: what I think they really want to ban or at

904
00:56:07,120 --> 00:56:10,399
Speaker 1: least very very strictly restrict. You know, let's take into

905
00:56:10,400 --> 00:56:12,960
Speaker 1: one part of this because the CNN I think, initially

906
00:56:13,000 --> 00:56:16,520
Speaker 1: broke the story on this. But we're being told now

907
00:56:16,560 --> 00:56:21,000
Speaker 1: that the shooter in Odessa bought the gun he failed

908
00:56:21,000 --> 00:56:23,879
Speaker 1: a background check to buy a firearm, and then when

909
00:56:24,000 --> 00:56:28,200
Speaker 1: and bought the gun in a private sale. I don't know,

910
00:56:28,280 --> 00:56:30,040
Speaker 1: I don't I haven't seen more specifics. If you have

911
00:56:30,120 --> 00:56:33,080
Speaker 1: more specifics, by all means, let us know. But this

912
00:56:33,200 --> 00:56:37,320
Speaker 1: is quite obviously going to turn into a major data

913
00:56:37,360 --> 00:56:43,200
Speaker 1: point that is used for why we need universal background checks. Now, David,

914
00:56:43,320 --> 00:56:44,800
Speaker 1: a lot of people it sounds like, well, we already

915
00:56:44,800 --> 00:56:48,600
Speaker 1: have background checks, why not have universal background checks. I

916
00:56:48,719 --> 00:56:50,719
Speaker 1: posed that I have my own version, but I want

917
00:56:50,719 --> 00:56:54,520
Speaker 1: to hear the Harsani version. Well, I just want to

918
00:56:54,520 --> 00:56:56,319
Speaker 1: say I saw that story as well. There are really

919
00:56:56,480 --> 00:56:59,840
Speaker 1: very little specifics, but whatever happened there, he broke the

920
00:57:00,239 --> 00:57:02,279
Speaker 1: he's not supposed to have a weapon, and through a

921
00:57:02,280 --> 00:57:07,000
Speaker 1: private sale either. So you know, I'm opposed to universal

922
00:57:07,080 --> 00:57:09,040
Speaker 1: background checks because I think they will lead to a

923
00:57:09,320 --> 00:57:12,680
Speaker 1: data national database of people. I don't understand how else

924
00:57:13,560 --> 00:57:15,239
Speaker 1: that can be done. And I also think it will

925
00:57:15,280 --> 00:57:18,920
Speaker 1: inhibit depending on how it's done, but most of these

926
00:57:18,960 --> 00:57:22,080
Speaker 1: bills will inhibit people from being able to lend their

927
00:57:22,080 --> 00:57:26,600
Speaker 1: gun to someone, to give their gun to their relative

928
00:57:27,000 --> 00:57:29,280
Speaker 1: or a good friend if they want to, without going

929
00:57:29,320 --> 00:57:31,880
Speaker 1: through some kind of government check. And I just don't

930
00:57:31,920 --> 00:57:34,040
Speaker 1: I just don't think that comports with the Second Amendment

931
00:57:34,040 --> 00:57:37,320
Speaker 1: and the freedom of owning a firearm. I think that

932
00:57:37,360 --> 00:57:39,640
Speaker 1: the laws that we have on the books already are

933
00:57:39,760 --> 00:57:42,400
Speaker 1: enough to stop most of these shooters. You're never going

934
00:57:42,480 --> 00:57:44,600
Speaker 1: to stop all of them. And even if the case

935
00:57:44,640 --> 00:57:47,200
Speaker 1: here was that he went through a private sale, it's

936
00:57:47,240 --> 00:57:49,880
Speaker 1: an incredibly rare event. I can't think of another one

937
00:57:49,880 --> 00:57:52,680
Speaker 1: of these mass shootings, high profile mass shootings, that happen

938
00:57:52,800 --> 00:57:54,840
Speaker 1: in that way. I can think of a few right

939
00:57:54,880 --> 00:57:57,640
Speaker 1: off the bat that could have been stopped by just

940
00:57:57,680 --> 00:58:00,480
Speaker 1: follow the laws that we already have. And if this

941
00:58:00,720 --> 00:58:03,320
Speaker 1: was a private sale, and that's the way of getting around,

942
00:58:03,440 --> 00:58:05,160
Speaker 1: you know, people are gonna say, well, why why can't

943
00:58:05,160 --> 00:58:08,520
Speaker 1: we just require someone to go in and have the

944
00:58:08,560 --> 00:58:12,000
Speaker 1: background check done at a federal firearms license you know,

945
00:58:12,200 --> 00:58:15,240
Speaker 1: or a federal firearms licensee. Why not just go through

946
00:58:15,240 --> 00:58:18,520
Speaker 1: that process, you said, because essentially a registry and it's

947
00:58:18,520 --> 00:58:22,520
Speaker 1: just unconstitutional. Is there anything else? Well, I mean, you know,

948
00:58:22,760 --> 00:58:26,080
Speaker 1: it's already illegal to sell to someone who shouldn't have

949
00:58:26,120 --> 00:58:28,919
Speaker 1: a gun, a to to buy someone a gun, uh

950
00:58:28,960 --> 00:58:32,200
Speaker 1: you know, to buy the phrases escaping me. But to

951
00:58:32,280 --> 00:58:34,840
Speaker 1: buy a gun for someone who's straw purchase, yeah, straw

952
00:58:34,920 --> 00:58:37,080
Speaker 1: purchase of a gun. And uh so, I'm not sure

953
00:58:37,080 --> 00:58:38,960
Speaker 1: what this does other than stop people who are law

954
00:58:38,960 --> 00:58:41,919
Speaker 1: abiding citizens from just you know, get you know, giving

955
00:58:41,920 --> 00:58:43,880
Speaker 1: their gun to their relative or selling their gun to

956
00:58:43,920 --> 00:58:46,280
Speaker 1: someone they know. If you're selling guns all the time,

957
00:58:46,320 --> 00:58:47,640
Speaker 1: you have to have you have to have a license

958
00:58:47,680 --> 00:58:51,040
Speaker 1: to do It's that's simple. Is there what's your what's

959
00:58:51,040 --> 00:58:53,080
Speaker 1: your idea? Why why do you oppose it, why do

960
00:58:53,200 --> 00:58:54,960
Speaker 1: I mean? I think that they're definitely going to create

961
00:58:54,960 --> 00:58:57,760
Speaker 1: a registry. So that's I think the moment that you

962
00:58:57,840 --> 00:59:00,760
Speaker 1: have every every single gun transaction that goes across the country,

963
00:59:00,800 --> 00:59:02,560
Speaker 1: they're going to say, okay, well now we have a

964
00:59:02,560 --> 00:59:05,960
Speaker 1: record of every gun transaction that's occurring. Any but I mean,

965
00:59:05,960 --> 00:59:08,480
Speaker 1: they already do have a lot of those guns. But

966
00:59:08,520 --> 00:59:10,440
Speaker 1: I also think then you start to get into this

967
00:59:10,520 --> 00:59:13,160
Speaker 1: area of well, if I if I do give you know,

968
00:59:13,480 --> 00:59:15,760
Speaker 1: am I now breaking the law? If I give a

969
00:59:15,840 --> 00:59:18,400
Speaker 1: gun to somebody to go sporting clay shooting and I

970
00:59:18,440 --> 00:59:21,320
Speaker 1: haven't gone under a federal firearms licensee and that person

971
00:59:21,360 --> 00:59:23,160
Speaker 1: for some reason get stopped and checked by a state

972
00:59:23,160 --> 00:59:25,400
Speaker 1: trooper or whatever, Am I going to prison now for that?

973
00:59:25,440 --> 00:59:27,800
Speaker 1: I mean, I want to know. You see, that's exactly

974
00:59:27,800 --> 00:59:29,440
Speaker 1: what they want. They want to make it harder. It's

975
00:59:29,440 --> 00:59:32,200
Speaker 1: like a Maryland near d See where I live, getting

976
00:59:32,200 --> 00:59:34,320
Speaker 1: a gun is incredibly difficult. That's what they want to do.

977
00:59:34,320 --> 00:59:36,200
Speaker 1: They just want to make it more and more difficult.

978
00:59:36,200 --> 00:59:38,480
Speaker 1: When we all know is this shooter and every other

979
00:59:38,480 --> 00:59:40,919
Speaker 1: shooter does they ignore those laws any win do whatever

980
00:59:40,960 --> 00:59:43,919
Speaker 1: they like? It is is anything gonna you know, Yeah,

981
00:59:44,040 --> 00:59:46,160
Speaker 1: I feel like part of my frustration year is that

982
00:59:46,200 --> 00:59:49,200
Speaker 1: I come on radio and it's it's the same Liberals

983
00:59:49,240 --> 00:59:51,840
Speaker 1: make the same arguments about this after every mass shooting.

984
00:59:52,120 --> 00:59:55,400
Speaker 1: There's never you know, they usually completely ignore, Well, what

985
00:59:55,480 --> 00:59:57,560
Speaker 1: you want to do wouldn't have even stopped the shooting

986
00:59:57,560 --> 01:00:01,000
Speaker 1: you're talking about. It's a very small percentage mass shootings

987
01:00:01,040 --> 01:00:03,200
Speaker 1: overall of gun violence in the country, which is over

988
01:00:04,200 --> 01:00:08,000
Speaker 1: from handguns and crime related, especially drug and gang related.

989
01:00:08,040 --> 01:00:11,360
Speaker 1: But why they just think they're going to beat us

990
01:00:11,360 --> 01:00:13,400
Speaker 1: into submission with the repetition? Is that the plan? What

991
01:00:13,440 --> 01:00:15,280
Speaker 1: do you think the plan is? Well, I think that

992
01:00:15,280 --> 01:00:18,080
Speaker 1: that a r fifteens because that you're used often by

993
01:00:18,120 --> 01:00:21,520
Speaker 1: these derained psychopaths is an easy way to scare monger

994
01:00:21,560 --> 01:00:23,360
Speaker 1: people about guns. The truth of the matter is, like

995
01:00:23,400 --> 01:00:27,520
Speaker 1: you just mentioned, uh, all all rifles are I think

996
01:00:27,560 --> 01:00:29,480
Speaker 1: account for a very small percent you know, I don't

997
01:00:29,480 --> 01:00:32,880
Speaker 1: know the exacting seven hundred of all the gun homicides

998
01:00:32,960 --> 01:00:35,560
Speaker 1: last year or something like that, and within that that's

999
01:00:35,600 --> 01:00:38,640
Speaker 1: not even a fifteens. You know, that's just rifles in general,

1000
01:00:38,960 --> 01:00:41,160
Speaker 1: more people are kicked to death, more people are punched

1001
01:00:41,160 --> 01:00:44,200
Speaker 1: to death, more people are killed with blunt objects and knives.

1002
01:00:44,840 --> 01:00:46,840
Speaker 1: But it's an easy way to scare people because of

1003
01:00:46,880 --> 01:00:49,480
Speaker 1: the aesthetics of the gun and then of the horrible

1004
01:00:50,040 --> 01:00:53,160
Speaker 1: things that they're used for. But in the end, as

1005
01:00:53,800 --> 01:00:55,720
Speaker 1: far as gun violence goes, it won't do much. My

1006
01:00:55,920 --> 01:00:58,360
Speaker 1: my theory is, and I don't think this is you know,

1007
01:00:58,440 --> 01:01:01,240
Speaker 1: some some huge This not surprised you. I just think

1008
01:01:01,240 --> 01:01:04,240
Speaker 1: this is incrementalism. They blatch onto whatever they can, whatever

1009
01:01:04,280 --> 01:01:06,440
Speaker 1: they think is popular. You see the poll numbers on

1010
01:01:06,480 --> 01:01:09,640
Speaker 1: this stuff, and that's what they want to do. Buybacks,

1011
01:01:10,280 --> 01:01:14,120
Speaker 1: assault weapon bands and universal back and buybacks aren't really

1012
01:01:14,160 --> 01:01:16,360
Speaker 1: I mean, that's a very gentle way of saying, you're

1013
01:01:16,400 --> 01:01:18,400
Speaker 1: going to give us your gun or you're going to prison.

1014
01:01:18,880 --> 01:01:21,000
Speaker 1: That's all. Yeah, it's called a lie. It's not a

1015
01:01:21,040 --> 01:01:23,200
Speaker 1: buy back because you never owned it in the first place.

1016
01:01:23,240 --> 01:01:27,240
Speaker 1: It's it's confiscation. First, gun confiscation plans since as I

1017
01:01:27,280 --> 01:01:31,760
Speaker 1: wrote in a comm today, since Lexington van Concord, so never, never,

1018
01:01:31,920 --> 01:01:34,160
Speaker 1: not in the thirties or any other times, the government

1019
01:01:34,200 --> 01:01:37,080
Speaker 1: to pass the law that meant confiscating the guns of

1020
01:01:37,160 --> 01:01:40,880
Speaker 1: law abiding citizens, making millions of people into criminals instantaneous.

1021
01:01:40,880 --> 01:01:43,560
Speaker 1: I mean Connecticut, Connecticut I think I saw an assessment

1022
01:01:43,640 --> 01:01:45,640
Speaker 1: years ago, and they banned a lot of semi automatic

1023
01:01:45,800 --> 01:01:48,320
Speaker 1: rifles at the state level. They expect that there are

1024
01:01:48,400 --> 01:01:50,720
Speaker 1: hundreds of thousands of people a couple of hundred thousand

1025
01:01:50,720 --> 01:01:52,360
Speaker 1: I think was the number, two hundred or maybe hundred

1026
01:01:52,360 --> 01:01:55,120
Speaker 1: and fifty thousand that just didn't comply. So technically those

1027
01:01:55,160 --> 01:01:57,680
Speaker 1: people are all now in the state of Connecticut felons.

1028
01:01:57,720 --> 01:01:59,919
Speaker 1: But they don't go door to door question that's soft

1029
01:02:00,000 --> 01:02:02,360
Speaker 1: and elsewhere, you know, assault weapons of people don't come

1030
01:02:02,360 --> 01:02:04,240
Speaker 1: and hand them in. I mean you're gonna have to

1031
01:02:04,240 --> 01:02:07,400
Speaker 1: go get them at some point. Yeah. Absolutely, first freedom

1032
01:02:07,520 --> 01:02:11,000
Speaker 1: arrived through America's and during history with the gun. David

1033
01:02:11,000 --> 01:02:13,760
Speaker 1: Harsani is the author. Checkout his columns The Federalists. David

1034
01:02:13,760 --> 01:02:16,480
Speaker 1: always appreciate you making time for us, sir, anytime. Thanks

1035
01:02:16,480 --> 01:02:18,400
Speaker 1: for having me. See, we'll be right back art. We

1036
01:02:18,440 --> 01:02:20,720
Speaker 1: haven't talked more tonight about how we're going to beat

1037
01:02:20,760 --> 01:02:24,320
Speaker 1: Donald's Trump. I have an idea about Donald Trump. Donald

1038
01:02:24,360 --> 01:02:26,720
Speaker 1: Trump is not going to be beaten just by insider

1039
01:02:26,760 --> 01:02:29,520
Speaker 1: politics talk. He's not going to be beaten just by

1040
01:02:29,560 --> 01:02:32,440
Speaker 1: somebody who has plans. He's going to be beaten by

1041
01:02:32,480 --> 01:02:34,760
Speaker 1: somebody who has an idea what this man has done.

1042
01:02:35,200 --> 01:02:37,600
Speaker 1: This man has reached into the psyche of the American

1043
01:02:37,680 --> 01:02:41,240
Speaker 1: people and he has harnessed fear for political purposes. So,

1044
01:02:41,400 --> 01:02:45,040
Speaker 1: mister President, if you're listening, I want you to hear me. Please.

1045
01:02:45,480 --> 01:02:48,240
Speaker 1: You have harnessed fear for political purposes, and only love

1046
01:02:48,320 --> 01:02:51,320
Speaker 1: can cast that out. So I, sir, I have a

1047
01:02:51,360 --> 01:02:53,960
Speaker 1: feeling you know what you're doing. I'm going to harness

1048
01:02:54,040 --> 01:02:57,520
Speaker 1: love for political purposes. I will meet you on that field.

1049
01:02:57,720 --> 01:03:00,280
Speaker 1: And sir, all right, So you remember that that was

1050
01:03:00,360 --> 01:03:04,200
Speaker 1: Mary Williamson's big moment, and I have a I wouldn't

1051
01:03:04,280 --> 01:03:06,400
Speaker 1: quite say a soft spot, but I have a familiarity

1052
01:03:06,440 --> 01:03:09,000
Speaker 1: with miss Williamson because she was on the episode of

1053
01:03:09,920 --> 01:03:14,160
Speaker 1: Bill Marshaw with me. But we will recall that she

1054
01:03:14,200 --> 01:03:16,800
Speaker 1: had that moment and then she talked about the dark

1055
01:03:16,880 --> 01:03:22,360
Speaker 1: psychic force the Donald Trump has harnessed to do bad

1056
01:03:22,360 --> 01:03:25,520
Speaker 1: things to America. Here's the thing about Mary and Williamson.

1057
01:03:26,280 --> 01:03:33,640
Speaker 1: She has unexpectedly stumbled upon a very important underlying truth

1058
01:03:34,520 --> 01:03:38,320
Speaker 1: about the Left that she, before running for president, was

1059
01:03:38,360 --> 01:03:42,600
Speaker 1: apparently not familiar with, and that is that the left

1060
01:03:42,720 --> 01:03:45,160
Speaker 1: is really mean and that they will lie about you,

1061
01:03:46,280 --> 01:03:50,120
Speaker 1: that they will lie, and they're very mean. I thought

1062
01:03:50,160 --> 01:03:54,160
Speaker 1: this was particularly interesting. This was from a New york

1063
01:03:54,240 --> 01:03:58,000
Speaker 1: An interview in The New Yorker with David Remnick. He said, quote,

1064
01:03:58,000 --> 01:04:01,040
Speaker 1: I know this sounds naive. I didn't think the left

1065
01:04:01,120 --> 01:04:05,320
Speaker 1: was so mean. I didn't think the left lide like this.

1066
01:04:05,840 --> 01:04:08,640
Speaker 1: I thought the right did that. I thought we were better.

1067
01:04:10,560 --> 01:04:13,200
Speaker 1: There's a there's a real insight here, folks. I know

1068
01:04:13,400 --> 01:04:19,160
Speaker 1: so many liberals who really do think, really do believe

1069
01:04:20,680 --> 01:04:25,080
Speaker 1: that their side is where as for all the nice people.

1070
01:04:25,120 --> 01:04:27,120
Speaker 1: It's not even that their side is right, that their

1071
01:04:27,160 --> 01:04:30,080
Speaker 1: side is smarter, they believe that too, but that the

1072
01:04:30,200 --> 01:04:31,880
Speaker 1: nice people are on their side. I mean, I can

1073
01:04:31,920 --> 01:04:35,240
Speaker 1: just tell you, and I'm I'm giving this to you

1074
01:04:35,240 --> 01:04:39,959
Speaker 1: as objectively as I possibly can. You know, look the left,

1075
01:04:40,000 --> 01:04:41,440
Speaker 1: for example, I mean I can tell you this and

1076
01:04:41,480 --> 01:04:42,760
Speaker 1: some of you who are going to get annoyed at

1077
01:04:42,760 --> 01:04:44,640
Speaker 1: me for saying it, but you know, the left is

1078
01:04:44,920 --> 01:04:48,160
Speaker 1: probably because they control the platforms and have take far

1079
01:04:48,240 --> 01:04:50,480
Speaker 1: more at bats than we do. But they're better at

1080
01:04:50,520 --> 01:04:54,080
Speaker 1: creative than we are. Meaning you know, they dominate Hollywood,

1081
01:04:54,120 --> 01:04:56,040
Speaker 1: they dominate TV shows, they do all this stuff, and

1082
01:04:56,040 --> 01:04:58,040
Speaker 1: they have just more people in the game. Do I

1083
01:04:58,080 --> 01:05:02,800
Speaker 1: think conservatives could could make better shows that of course,

1084
01:05:02,840 --> 01:05:05,600
Speaker 1: But if we're just gonna look at the scoreboard, they're

1085
01:05:05,640 --> 01:05:08,560
Speaker 1: dominating us in those areas. And if it comes to

1086
01:05:08,680 --> 01:05:12,560
Speaker 1: if it comes down to making entertaining, uh, you know,

1087
01:05:12,680 --> 01:05:17,720
Speaker 1: fictional content, the left, generally speaking, manages to just do

1088
01:05:17,760 --> 01:05:21,000
Speaker 1: a do a good job on the creative. And you

1089
01:05:21,040 --> 01:05:23,760
Speaker 1: can argue with me about whether that's entirely because they

1090
01:05:23,800 --> 01:05:27,000
Speaker 1: control the platforms and or if it's just a function

1091
01:05:27,040 --> 01:05:29,360
Speaker 1: of that's the way their minds think. And they're more

1092
01:05:29,400 --> 01:05:31,040
Speaker 1: you know, they're more willing to do the sex, drugs

1093
01:05:31,040 --> 01:05:32,920
Speaker 1: and rock and roll thing than conservatives are. I think

1094
01:05:32,960 --> 01:05:35,600
Speaker 1: that's one way to you know, with the left running things,

1095
01:05:35,680 --> 01:05:37,720
Speaker 1: you get a lot of you know, a lot of

1096
01:05:38,000 --> 01:05:40,600
Speaker 1: a lot of booze, boobs and violence, you know, when

1097
01:05:40,640 --> 01:05:42,200
Speaker 1: it comes to the creative. So if you like that

1098
01:05:42,320 --> 01:05:46,720
Speaker 1: or not, I leave that to you. But if you're

1099
01:05:46,720 --> 01:05:52,480
Speaker 1: talking about what goes on on the right, our people

1100
01:05:52,720 --> 01:05:58,680
Speaker 1: are nicer, nicer than their people are. In the media,

1101
01:05:58,680 --> 01:06:00,960
Speaker 1: I'm talking. I'm not overall, I can't I can't say.

1102
01:06:01,000 --> 01:06:03,960
Speaker 1: I mean in the media, though, conservatives that I come

1103
01:06:04,000 --> 01:06:09,320
Speaker 1: across in news media are by a factor, I'd say

1104
01:06:09,320 --> 01:06:11,560
Speaker 1: of three to one. You know, there are three nice

1105
01:06:11,600 --> 01:06:14,280
Speaker 1: conservatives for every nice liberal I come across. Maybe it's

1106
01:06:14,320 --> 01:06:18,240
Speaker 1: more like five to one. They are really really nasty

1107
01:06:18,360 --> 01:06:25,280
Speaker 1: people on the left, really nasty that and you see

1108
01:06:25,320 --> 01:06:26,960
Speaker 1: this in some of these organization. I mean you see

1109
01:06:27,000 --> 01:06:31,040
Speaker 1: this with Media Matters a as scummy an outfit as

1110
01:06:31,120 --> 01:06:35,560
Speaker 1: exists in the media landscape. Gawker, very left wing, disgusting,

1111
01:06:35,760 --> 01:06:40,800
Speaker 1: fortunately now defunct, but a horrible organization, ruined people, destroyed reputations,

1112
01:06:40,800 --> 01:06:43,480
Speaker 1: and took real glee in it. The young Turks with

1113
01:06:43,520 --> 01:06:47,320
Speaker 1: that psychopath who had the total meltdown about Dan Crenshaw.

1114
01:06:47,440 --> 01:06:53,640
Speaker 1: Guy's horrible. Is an unethical, stupid, bad person. There's a

1115
01:06:53,680 --> 01:06:56,480
Speaker 1: lot of that, unfortunately in left wing media. Now I'm

1116
01:06:56,480 --> 01:06:59,200
Speaker 1: not saying it doesn't exist in the right, but for

1117
01:06:59,240 --> 01:07:01,920
Speaker 1: whatever reason, it is elevated on the left. I mean,

1118
01:07:01,960 --> 01:07:04,000
Speaker 1: you have these people. You know, Keith Olberman here's a

1119
01:07:04,040 --> 01:07:09,520
Speaker 1: perfect example, was universally known as a mean person, as

1120
01:07:09,560 --> 01:07:14,080
Speaker 1: a bad guy. Uh, you know, I mean there are

1121
01:07:14,080 --> 01:07:16,520
Speaker 1: others that I could I could talk about as well.

1122
01:07:16,800 --> 01:07:20,200
Speaker 1: You know, Jake Tapper, universally by those at least who've

1123
01:07:20,200 --> 01:07:22,680
Speaker 1: ever dealt with him, knows is one of the most

1124
01:07:22,760 --> 01:07:27,840
Speaker 1: thin skinned human beings you will ever come across. And yet,

1125
01:07:27,880 --> 01:07:29,240
Speaker 1: you know, we're all supposed to be like, oh, well,

1126
01:07:29,240 --> 01:07:31,400
Speaker 1: that's you know, because he plays a news anchor on TV,

1127
01:07:31,520 --> 01:07:34,600
Speaker 1: We're all supposed to think that he's got gravitas. Mary

1128
01:07:34,600 --> 01:07:37,120
Speaker 1: Anne Williamson has found out the hard way that the

1129
01:07:37,240 --> 01:07:44,480
Speaker 1: left is really mean. They're just mean, you know, they're

1130
01:07:44,480 --> 01:07:47,440
Speaker 1: coming after her, and she's she says that they falsely

1131
01:07:47,440 --> 01:07:50,080
Speaker 1: accused her of having told AIDS patients not to take

1132
01:07:50,080 --> 01:07:53,320
Speaker 1: their medicines. She's they say that she they false He's

1133
01:07:53,400 --> 01:07:56,760
Speaker 1: told her that lovelessness causes disease and that love is

1134
01:07:56,840 --> 01:08:00,240
Speaker 1: enough to cure their diseases. You know. They say that

1135
01:08:00,240 --> 01:08:03,200
Speaker 1: that she has been smeared by her own side in

1136
01:08:03,240 --> 01:08:05,840
Speaker 1: a way that shows a real vicious is now no

1137
01:08:05,840 --> 01:08:07,680
Speaker 1: a lotty like Buck the crazy Crystal Lady? What do

1138
01:08:07,760 --> 01:08:11,560
Speaker 1: we care? I'm just saying I think that her awakening

1139
01:08:11,640 --> 01:08:14,720
Speaker 1: to our own side is something that we need to

1140
01:08:14,840 --> 01:08:17,439
Speaker 1: encourage more. We need to encourage more of this to happen,

1141
01:08:17,520 --> 01:08:23,280
Speaker 1: because Libs are really mean. There's a nat because of

1142
01:08:23,320 --> 01:08:26,439
Speaker 1: the self righteousness and the emotionalism and the sense that

1143
01:08:26,760 --> 01:08:29,160
Speaker 1: this isn't a difference in politics, is a difference between

1144
01:08:29,200 --> 01:08:32,719
Speaker 1: the good people and the bad people. They have no problem,

1145
01:08:32,720 --> 01:08:37,080
Speaker 1: they have no compunction watching the other side get destroyed.

1146
01:08:37,200 --> 01:08:40,599
Speaker 1: And then that reminds me of this guy, Ben Penn

1147
01:08:42,240 --> 01:08:46,280
Speaker 1: and the story that he wrote about Laife Olsen got

1148
01:08:46,320 --> 01:08:50,040
Speaker 1: him fired from the Department of Labor. And now it

1149
01:08:50,360 --> 01:08:56,599
Speaker 1: to any person with basic reading comprehension skills, Laife Olsen

1150
01:08:56,720 --> 01:08:59,080
Speaker 1: did nothing wrong. It was a joke. He did not

1151
01:08:59,120 --> 01:09:01,760
Speaker 1: cross any line. He is not an anti Semite. He

1152
01:09:01,840 --> 01:09:05,040
Speaker 1: was not being anti Semitic. And this guy lost his job.

1153
01:09:05,120 --> 01:09:08,280
Speaker 1: And you know what, the Department of Labor is even

1154
01:09:08,320 --> 01:09:10,120
Speaker 1: now said, as far as I understand it, that they

1155
01:09:10,160 --> 01:09:12,599
Speaker 1: agree that you know, he didn't actually cross any lines

1156
01:09:13,360 --> 01:09:16,960
Speaker 1: to do anything wrong. Bloomberg is standing behind the report.

1157
01:09:18,240 --> 01:09:21,920
Speaker 1: Better to be a party to a false better to

1158
01:09:21,960 --> 01:09:27,120
Speaker 1: be wrong than to have to admit that they ran

1159
01:09:27,200 --> 01:09:30,439
Speaker 1: a hit piece that was fake news and deal with

1160
01:09:30,479 --> 01:09:33,040
Speaker 1: a blow or the organization's credibility that would come from that.

1161
01:09:33,160 --> 01:09:35,439
Speaker 1: But you know, it's a It's a terrible thing to do.

1162
01:09:35,520 --> 01:09:39,080
Speaker 1: I would I would not sleep at night if I

1163
01:09:39,120 --> 01:09:42,400
Speaker 1: had gotten somebody fired from their job in the government

1164
01:09:43,360 --> 01:09:45,559
Speaker 1: just because I felt like getting some clicks for a

1165
01:09:45,600 --> 01:09:48,200
Speaker 1: website and I and I lied about a person and

1166
01:09:48,320 --> 01:09:50,559
Speaker 1: ruin their reputation to do it. I would not I

1167
01:09:50,560 --> 01:09:53,280
Speaker 1: would not be able to handle that. Left is fine

1168
01:09:53,280 --> 01:09:58,080
Speaker 1: with it. Ben Ben hasn't apologized. Bloomberg hasn't apologized. Look

1169
01:09:58,080 --> 01:10:01,160
Speaker 1: at the way that you know they talk about it.

1170
01:10:01,320 --> 01:10:04,280
Speaker 1: In the gun debate. We say things like, oh, they

1171
01:10:04,320 --> 01:10:06,840
Speaker 1: don't understand, you know, they don't understand what they're talking about.

1172
01:10:06,880 --> 01:10:09,479
Speaker 1: Their ideas are wrong, their ideas are bad. What do

1173
01:10:09,560 --> 01:10:12,559
Speaker 1: they say to us, Oh, you don't care about dead children,

1174
01:10:13,080 --> 01:10:16,320
Speaker 1: you don't care about stopping mass shootings and the horrible

1175
01:10:16,360 --> 01:10:19,559
Speaker 1: violence from it. Can they really believe that about their

1176
01:10:19,560 --> 01:10:23,320
Speaker 1: fellow Americans? I think, unfortunately the answer is yes. I

1177
01:10:23,360 --> 01:10:27,880
Speaker 1: think unfortunately there is so much There has been so

1178
01:10:27,960 --> 01:10:30,960
Speaker 1: much viciousness on the left for so long that they

1179
01:10:31,280 --> 01:10:34,360
Speaker 1: can't even see it for what it is. They can't

1180
01:10:34,360 --> 01:10:38,400
Speaker 1: even tell and it has been incubated on the left,

1181
01:10:38,479 --> 01:10:41,519
Speaker 1: so now we're dealing with the consequence of it. But yeah,

1182
01:10:41,680 --> 01:10:43,960
Speaker 1: do you mean to marry Anne the crystal lady who

1183
01:10:43,960 --> 01:10:45,800
Speaker 1: says that she doesn't even ever use crystals? So that's

1184
01:10:45,800 --> 01:10:48,880
Speaker 1: an unfair sme but comes from the left, folks. They're

1185
01:10:48,960 --> 01:10:52,559
Speaker 1: very mean. Aftermath of these hearings, I believe that Christine's

1186
01:10:52,600 --> 01:10:56,840
Speaker 1: testimony brought about more good than the horror misogynist Republicans

1187
01:10:56,920 --> 01:10:59,559
Speaker 1: caused by allowing Cabinet on the court. We were going

1188
01:10:59,600 --> 01:11:03,920
Speaker 1: to have a conservative Elections have consequences. But he will

1189
01:11:03,960 --> 01:11:06,720
Speaker 1: always have an asterisk next to his name when he

1190
01:11:06,760 --> 01:11:09,040
Speaker 1: takes a scalpel to Robi Wade. We will know who

1191
01:11:09,080 --> 01:11:11,960
Speaker 1: he is. We know his character, and we know what

1192
01:11:12,120 --> 01:11:15,720
Speaker 1: motivates him, and that is important. It is important that

1193
01:11:15,760 --> 01:11:18,719
Speaker 1: we know, and that was part of what motivated Christine.

1194
01:11:21,160 --> 01:11:29,240
Speaker 1: That is Christine Blasi Ford's lawyer, Deborah Katz telling you

1195
01:11:29,360 --> 01:11:34,320
Speaker 1: what we have known all along. That is the motivation.

1196
01:11:34,360 --> 01:11:37,240
Speaker 1: Now she said motivated in part, I would say motivated

1197
01:11:38,680 --> 01:11:42,120
Speaker 1: almost entirely by And the only part of that that

1198
01:11:43,000 --> 01:11:45,479
Speaker 1: you could add into the mix would be that she

1199
01:11:45,600 --> 01:11:50,120
Speaker 1: was motivated almost entirely by politics. But then also the

1200
01:11:50,240 --> 01:11:56,840
Speaker 1: desire to be viewed among her fellow supporters of the

1201
01:11:57,479 --> 01:12:00,960
Speaker 1: hideous regime of abortion in this country, to be seen

1202
01:12:01,000 --> 01:12:03,959
Speaker 1: as a hero, to be on the cover of magazines

1203
01:12:04,000 --> 01:12:07,559
Speaker 1: which she was put on. I mean, that's what ended

1204
01:12:07,640 --> 01:12:12,600
Speaker 1: up happening, and this is This is a frustration because

1205
01:12:12,880 --> 01:12:16,240
Speaker 1: yet again it reminds me of the Clinton Foundation situation,

1206
01:12:16,320 --> 01:12:20,760
Speaker 1: where I would go on CNN and say, we all

1207
01:12:20,800 --> 01:12:25,920
Speaker 1: understand that the Clinton Foundation is really a front for

1208
01:12:26,040 --> 01:12:31,080
Speaker 1: laundering money to the Clintons to buy access and contact

1209
01:12:31,160 --> 01:12:33,600
Speaker 1: with them, right, that this isn't really about charity, that

1210
01:12:33,640 --> 01:12:37,639
Speaker 1: the Clintons don't give a crap about charity. We all

1211
01:12:37,680 --> 01:12:40,080
Speaker 1: know that, right, and it's CNN. They they'd all pretend

1212
01:12:40,120 --> 01:12:43,439
Speaker 1: to be very, very stupid when I would have this

1213
01:12:43,479 --> 01:12:46,160
Speaker 1: conversation with some of their anchors, and and punnits on

1214
01:12:46,160 --> 01:12:48,160
Speaker 1: another said, oh, what do you mean the Clintons. They're

1215
01:12:48,160 --> 01:12:51,000
Speaker 1: just doing good charity work, That's what There's no there's

1216
01:12:51,040 --> 01:12:53,080
Speaker 1: no other motive. And I said, okay, Well, the real

1217
01:12:53,240 --> 01:12:57,599
Speaker 1: test of this will be once it's clear that Hillary

1218
01:12:57,640 --> 01:13:00,160
Speaker 1: Clinton's not going to be president the United States, the

1219
01:13:00,240 --> 01:13:03,320
Speaker 1: donations dry up, because if it's about charity, then it

1220
01:13:03,360 --> 01:13:06,160
Speaker 1: shouldn't matter at all. And as we saw, not only

1221
01:13:06,520 --> 01:13:09,200
Speaker 1: did the donations the Clinton Foundation dry up, they fell

1222
01:13:09,200 --> 01:13:11,840
Speaker 1: off a cliff and they had just shut down whole

1223
01:13:11,880 --> 01:13:13,760
Speaker 1: sectors of the Clinton When was the last time you

1224
01:13:13,800 --> 01:13:17,599
Speaker 1: heard about the Clinton Foundation at all in the news well,

1225
01:13:17,640 --> 01:13:20,160
Speaker 1: they're trying to cover up at some level there they

1226
01:13:20,160 --> 01:13:24,520
Speaker 1: don't have shame, but try to cover up the blatant

1227
01:13:24,600 --> 01:13:26,599
Speaker 1: nature of the pay to play scammut they were running.

1228
01:13:26,760 --> 01:13:28,439
Speaker 1: Why do I bring this up in the context of

1229
01:13:28,439 --> 01:13:32,960
Speaker 1: Blasi Ford. A similar circumstances took place during the whole

1230
01:13:34,280 --> 01:13:37,800
Speaker 1: character assassination attempt of Brett Kavanaugh, which was still one

1231
01:13:37,840 --> 01:13:43,040
Speaker 1: of the most horrific things that I have ever watched

1232
01:13:44,080 --> 01:13:46,840
Speaker 1: in a political arena on TV. I think it actually,

1233
01:13:47,040 --> 01:13:50,400
Speaker 1: if we're talking just politics, it was the ugliest political

1234
01:13:50,439 --> 01:13:55,720
Speaker 1: thing I've ever seen on TV. Was the ritualized and

1235
01:13:55,920 --> 01:14:01,680
Speaker 1: sadistic psychological torture that and all was subjected to for

1236
01:14:01,800 --> 01:14:05,000
Speaker 1: allegations that were clearly false to anyone who's not a

1237
01:14:05,040 --> 01:14:10,720
Speaker 1: liar or a moron, allegations that had no evidence to

1238
01:14:10,760 --> 01:14:15,240
Speaker 1: back them up, no substance in reality whatsoever. But I

1239
01:14:15,280 --> 01:14:17,759
Speaker 1: remember when that was happening, and you'll remember this too,

1240
01:14:18,680 --> 01:14:22,160
Speaker 1: that you had all these journalists that would say that

1241
01:14:22,200 --> 01:14:25,479
Speaker 1: this became a common talking point. Oh but but why

1242
01:14:25,520 --> 01:14:30,320
Speaker 1: would she lie? She has no reason to lie? And

1243
01:14:30,360 --> 01:14:33,160
Speaker 1: they would say this, to which many of us would

1244
01:14:33,200 --> 01:14:36,960
Speaker 1: point out, other than being written about in the history books,

1245
01:14:36,960 --> 01:14:41,240
Speaker 1: forever as somebody who saved perhaps a women's a woman's

1246
01:14:41,320 --> 01:14:43,960
Speaker 1: right to choose, or as was said by Deborah Katz

1247
01:14:44,000 --> 01:14:48,960
Speaker 1: here at least will always have cast a cast in aspersion,

1248
01:14:49,360 --> 01:14:52,960
Speaker 1: created a question mark or an asterisk or whatever they

1249
01:14:53,000 --> 01:14:57,879
Speaker 1: want to say around any decision involving Judge Brett Kavanaugh,

1250
01:14:59,000 --> 01:15:04,479
Speaker 1: just to create the the basis for a multigenerational smear.

1251
01:15:05,479 --> 01:15:08,920
Speaker 1: Also knowing that the left wing dominance in media and

1252
01:15:09,040 --> 01:15:12,760
Speaker 1: in the academy will mean that Blasi Ford give it

1253
01:15:12,800 --> 01:15:16,160
Speaker 1: ten years, She's going to be the hero of the

1254
01:15:16,280 --> 01:15:18,880
Speaker 1: narrative for all leftists, and they're going to teach us

1255
01:15:18,880 --> 01:15:22,320
Speaker 1: in schools just like you know, you always will hear

1256
01:15:22,360 --> 01:15:24,760
Speaker 1: that Clarence Thomas is the bad guy and Anita Hill

1257
01:15:24,880 --> 01:15:27,360
Speaker 1: is a hero. You know, Anita Hill has Kerry Washington

1258
01:15:27,439 --> 01:15:30,599
Speaker 1: player in the HBO movie and defending women and all

1259
01:15:30,640 --> 01:15:34,360
Speaker 1: this stuff, and no one even really knows who gets

1260
01:15:34,360 --> 01:15:39,120
Speaker 1: all excited about it now the subject matter, in any

1261
01:15:39,200 --> 01:15:42,000
Speaker 1: detail of those allegations. They just know Anita Hill was

1262
01:15:42,040 --> 01:15:45,679
Speaker 1: the hero, the heroine, and Clarence Thomas was the bad guy,

1263
01:15:46,439 --> 01:15:49,200
Speaker 1: the bad guy because he's a conservative, and they want

1264
01:15:49,200 --> 01:15:51,240
Speaker 1: to make that the story as well. With Kavanaugh, and

1265
01:15:51,400 --> 01:15:54,920
Speaker 1: with blasi Ford, they will try. I would just note

1266
01:15:54,960 --> 01:15:58,160
Speaker 1: that the media pretended to be completely a bunch of morons.

1267
01:15:58,320 --> 01:16:02,200
Speaker 1: All the issue of why would why would blasi Ford

1268
01:16:02,400 --> 01:16:06,479
Speaker 1: do this? Why would she come forward and lie, which

1269
01:16:06,520 --> 01:16:10,360
Speaker 1: is what she did about somebody to ruin his reputation,

1270
01:16:10,840 --> 01:16:14,800
Speaker 1: to defame him in front of the whole nation. Why

1271
01:16:14,800 --> 01:16:16,800
Speaker 1: I put herself through this? And it's because she got

1272
01:16:16,800 --> 01:16:19,240
Speaker 1: to be the center of attention. She was considered a

1273
01:16:19,320 --> 01:16:21,880
Speaker 1: hero by everybody who is on the left, everyone who

1274
01:16:21,920 --> 01:16:25,400
Speaker 1: doesn't like Kavanaugh, an anyone who's ever had an abortion

1275
01:16:25,400 --> 01:16:29,280
Speaker 1: in the country and still believes in abortion as a

1276
01:16:29,400 --> 01:16:35,200
Speaker 1: sacred right of womanhood, which is a pretty terrifying notion,

1277
01:16:35,280 --> 01:16:37,960
Speaker 1: but that's a very widely held one. They thought that

1278
01:16:38,000 --> 01:16:40,639
Speaker 1: blasi Ford was being a hero, so it was obvious.

1279
01:16:40,720 --> 01:16:42,760
Speaker 1: And the point is it was obvious why she would

1280
01:16:42,800 --> 01:16:44,400
Speaker 1: do this? Why would she lie? I got a lot

1281
01:16:44,400 --> 01:16:46,880
Speaker 1: of reasons why she'd lie, But all the journalists go,

1282
01:16:47,200 --> 01:16:50,000
Speaker 1: I don't know what she'd like. She's telling the truth.

1283
01:16:50,520 --> 01:16:52,280
Speaker 1: She has no reason to lie, That's what they would

1284
01:16:52,280 --> 01:16:56,759
Speaker 1: always say, no reason to lie. Well, here's her lawyer

1285
01:16:56,800 --> 01:16:59,880
Speaker 1: giving you at least one reason. Now that the battle

1286
01:17:00,120 --> 01:17:04,160
Speaker 1: is over, or at least the initial phase of it

1287
01:17:04,240 --> 01:17:07,560
Speaker 1: is over, and it's to create a smear of Kavanaugh

1288
01:17:07,560 --> 01:17:10,479
Speaker 1: in case he is part of overturning Roe v. Wade,

1289
01:17:10,560 --> 01:17:13,639
Speaker 1: or in case there's any decision that comes down involving

1290
01:17:13,720 --> 01:17:16,280
Speaker 1: Judge Brett Kavanaugh that the Left doesn't like, they'll just say, oh,

1291
01:17:16,320 --> 01:17:21,400
Speaker 1: you mean Kavanaugh, the sexual assaulter. Havanall the would be rapist.

1292
01:17:21,479 --> 01:17:25,439
Speaker 1: That's what they're going to do. And I just feel

1293
01:17:25,479 --> 01:17:28,479
Speaker 1: that there should be so much more accountability for the

1294
01:17:29,200 --> 01:17:35,280
Speaker 1: cowardly and idiotic journalists out there who, in moments where

1295
01:17:35,439 --> 01:17:39,280
Speaker 1: character would really matter, they feign or some of them

1296
01:17:39,280 --> 01:17:41,080
Speaker 1: perhaps are just the stupid, but most of them just

1297
01:17:41,200 --> 01:17:46,040
Speaker 1: feigned stupidity because it is politically more convenient for them

1298
01:17:46,040 --> 01:17:49,120
Speaker 1: in the moment. All of a sudden, they can't figure

1299
01:17:49,120 --> 01:17:53,040
Speaker 1: out what any normal human being paying attention to any

1300
01:17:53,439 --> 01:17:56,880
Speaker 1: situation like this would be able to figure out. Why

1301
01:17:56,960 --> 01:17:59,040
Speaker 1: would a person come forward like this? Oh, because it's

1302
01:17:59,040 --> 01:18:02,400
Speaker 1: been so hard for Anita Hill since she came forward,

1303
01:18:03,800 --> 01:18:06,880
Speaker 1: She's been treated so poorly by by the press and

1304
01:18:06,920 --> 01:18:10,880
Speaker 1: by the establishment. Now she's gotten very cushy jobs. HBO

1305
01:18:10,960 --> 01:18:13,320
Speaker 1: show made, our HBO movie made about her where she's

1306
01:18:13,360 --> 01:18:17,360
Speaker 1: the heroine, and saything's gonna have with blasi Ford, And

1307
01:18:17,600 --> 01:18:21,400
Speaker 1: keep in mind that they've really just pushed away the

1308
01:18:21,479 --> 01:18:24,040
Speaker 1: other two. I can't even remember. I Sweatnick was the third.

1309
01:18:24,080 --> 01:18:27,200
Speaker 1: I can't remember the name of the second accuser, an

1310
01:18:27,200 --> 01:18:31,240
Speaker 1: accuser who came forward despite not even being able by

1311
01:18:31,240 --> 01:18:35,680
Speaker 1: her own, by her own admission, being able to remember

1312
01:18:35,920 --> 01:18:39,640
Speaker 1: on her own, whether Cavana did anything to her, you know,

1313
01:18:39,720 --> 01:18:42,519
Speaker 1: she came forward and made this allegation against him. And

1314
01:18:42,520 --> 01:18:46,799
Speaker 1: then in the third instance, with Sweatnick, a crazy person

1315
01:18:47,280 --> 01:18:50,000
Speaker 1: who anyone could see, who had their eyes open and

1316
01:18:50,080 --> 01:18:53,640
Speaker 1: was being honest, was just a liar. Blasi Ford was

1317
01:18:53,680 --> 01:18:59,200
Speaker 1: a moderately a mildly convincing liar, meaning she was still

1318
01:18:59,320 --> 01:19:03,120
Speaker 1: clearly lie. But there was there was a little she

1319
01:19:03,200 --> 01:19:06,120
Speaker 1: was better coach, There was a little bit more preparation

1320
01:19:06,240 --> 01:19:10,080
Speaker 1: in it. It was it sounded more plausible. Sweatnick came

1321
01:19:10,120 --> 01:19:13,320
Speaker 1: after Supreme Court judge, a Supreme Court justice now would

1322
01:19:13,360 --> 01:19:15,720
Speaker 1: be Supreme Court justice, of course, with the help of

1323
01:19:15,760 --> 01:19:20,080
Speaker 1: Michael Avanati. Who can it get scummier? I mean, the

1324
01:19:20,120 --> 01:19:22,519
Speaker 1: way that that guy goes after people on Twitter, if

1325
01:19:22,520 --> 01:19:25,000
Speaker 1: you haven't seen it, is hilarious. Got after some friends

1326
01:19:25,000 --> 01:19:28,160
Speaker 1: of mine. They're not you know, you're not famous enough, basically,

1327
01:19:28,240 --> 01:19:29,599
Speaker 1: is what he likes to say to people. I mean,

1328
01:19:29,920 --> 01:19:32,640
Speaker 1: Avanadi is famous and almost the way that you know,

1329
01:19:32,680 --> 01:19:36,080
Speaker 1: Anthony Weener is famous for being a disgusting creep, right,

1330
01:19:36,120 --> 01:19:39,280
Speaker 1: I mean, they're they're famous for being bad people. They're not.

1331
01:19:39,320 --> 01:19:43,439
Speaker 1: They're not famous because everyone loves them. So you know,

1332
01:19:43,640 --> 01:19:47,080
Speaker 1: that's a distinction I think worth keeping in mind. But yeah,

1333
01:19:47,120 --> 01:19:50,280
Speaker 1: Christine Blasi Ford her lawyers come out and told us

1334
01:19:50,320 --> 01:19:52,240
Speaker 1: what what I knew, what you knew all along. But

1335
01:19:52,360 --> 01:19:55,439
Speaker 1: now now we have greater confirmation. And the people that

1336
01:19:55,800 --> 01:19:58,240
Speaker 1: pretended they could not figure this out at the time,

1337
01:19:58,800 --> 01:20:01,880
Speaker 1: I do think that there should be accountability. I think

1338
01:20:01,880 --> 01:20:04,639
Speaker 1: we should bring them forward in the press and say,

1339
01:20:04,640 --> 01:20:07,479
Speaker 1: excuse me, I'm just wondering, were you really unable to

1340
01:20:07,479 --> 01:20:10,280
Speaker 1: figure out what the motivations here were. Now, of course

1341
01:20:10,600 --> 01:20:12,760
Speaker 1: we know that they would lie about it, but I

1342
01:20:12,840 --> 01:20:16,000
Speaker 1: would like to see them lie again. The American people,

1343
01:20:16,040 --> 01:20:18,080
Speaker 1: I mean, many of the worst people you come across,

1344
01:20:18,120 --> 01:20:20,479
Speaker 1: and any prominent public role, our journalists, and this is

1345
01:20:20,479 --> 01:20:23,439
Speaker 1: just another another example of that. Over the last i'd

1346
01:20:23,520 --> 01:20:28,120
Speaker 1: say fifteen twenty years we've seen this increasing what many

1347
01:20:28,160 --> 01:20:31,920
Speaker 1: people call tribalism, and basically you can sum that up

1348
01:20:31,960 --> 01:20:36,040
Speaker 1: with contempt for other people's views and saying I disagree

1349
01:20:36,120 --> 01:20:38,280
Speaker 1: with you, and by the way, you're wrong about everything.

1350
01:20:38,920 --> 01:20:41,040
Speaker 1: I think. In the past, we had elections, and yeah,

1351
01:20:41,040 --> 01:20:44,160
Speaker 1: they're pretty, they're pretty raucous, and they're pretty rough and tumble,

1352
01:20:44,200 --> 01:20:47,360
Speaker 1: and sometimes they're not civil. But welcome to democracy. But

1353
01:20:47,479 --> 01:20:49,200
Speaker 1: in the old days, the old days of being in

1354
01:20:49,240 --> 01:20:52,639
Speaker 1: why I didn't have this color hair. In the old days,

1355
01:20:52,920 --> 01:20:56,000
Speaker 1: when the election was over, we buried the hatchet, we

1356
01:20:56,040 --> 01:20:58,679
Speaker 1: got down to governing. It's like today all we stay

1357
01:20:58,720 --> 01:21:02,240
Speaker 1: in is locked in this election cycle and we're constantly

1358
01:21:02,240 --> 01:21:05,880
Speaker 1: finding reasons not to cooperate. And no democraphy can survive

1359
01:21:06,040 --> 01:21:09,960
Speaker 1: that sort of a style. It does won't work. General

1360
01:21:10,000 --> 01:21:15,520
Speaker 1: Maddis there speaking of christiano'man pool who has the fanciest

1361
01:21:15,640 --> 01:21:19,280
Speaker 1: accents of any human being ever on the history of

1362
01:21:19,320 --> 01:21:25,599
Speaker 1: the world. It's really her calling card. I don't think

1363
01:21:25,600 --> 01:21:30,799
Speaker 1: that Maddis is political analysis here is especially as stute

1364
01:21:30,920 --> 01:21:33,519
Speaker 1: and I know I've been. I wouldn't even say I'm

1365
01:21:33,560 --> 01:21:37,120
Speaker 1: critical of General Maddis. I'm just I just have questions

1366
01:21:37,600 --> 01:21:41,320
Speaker 1: I've been asking those questions. I don't want to naked

1367
01:21:41,400 --> 01:21:47,439
Speaker 1: seem like I'm bashing Maddis by any stretch. He's clearly,

1368
01:21:47,840 --> 01:21:50,559
Speaker 1: very very well respected throughout the military. I should when

1369
01:21:50,560 --> 01:21:53,880
Speaker 1: I say clearly, it's really what the journalists who cover

1370
01:21:54,000 --> 01:21:56,599
Speaker 1: the Pentagon, and you know that we go by what

1371
01:21:56,640 --> 01:21:58,040
Speaker 1: they say. I mean, I don't know. I haven't really

1372
01:21:58,040 --> 01:22:01,040
Speaker 1: spoken to that many rank and file soldiers about what

1373
01:22:01,160 --> 01:22:03,280
Speaker 1: they think of Maddis. They might say is fantastic, they

1374
01:22:03,360 --> 01:22:06,479
Speaker 1: might say that, you know, I can tell you a

1375
01:22:06,479 --> 01:22:09,680
Speaker 1: lot of people thought that General Petreus was kind of

1376
01:22:09,680 --> 01:22:13,040
Speaker 1: a jerk. So we were always told, oh, he's a genius,

1377
01:22:13,080 --> 01:22:16,280
Speaker 1: he's gonna save well. I mean, he got things right

1378
01:22:16,280 --> 01:22:18,960
Speaker 1: in Iraq when he was in command, didn't exactly get

1379
01:22:19,000 --> 01:22:21,559
Speaker 1: things right in Afghanistan, But that never really gets talked about.

1380
01:22:22,760 --> 01:22:25,479
Speaker 1: General General Madister though, saying that we used to get

1381
01:22:25,520 --> 01:22:31,160
Speaker 1: to the business of governing. Really, I think you could

1382
01:22:31,240 --> 01:22:35,840
Speaker 1: argue that that has been in recent memory, that has

1383
01:22:35,880 --> 01:22:38,000
Speaker 1: been the exception more than there. It certainly wasn't the

1384
01:22:38,000 --> 01:22:43,120
Speaker 1: case under the Bush administration, where I have not forgotten

1385
01:22:43,880 --> 01:22:48,400
Speaker 1: that there were efforts, real efforts to try to get

1386
01:22:48,880 --> 01:22:52,800
Speaker 1: criminal charges brought against someone like Dick Cheney where there

1387
01:22:53,320 --> 01:22:57,040
Speaker 1: was a special counsel about a non event leak of

1388
01:22:57,080 --> 01:23:00,519
Speaker 1: a non event person's name, and then that led to

1389
01:23:00,560 --> 01:23:05,920
Speaker 1: the charges against Scooter Libby. There were it was. It

1390
01:23:05,960 --> 01:23:09,360
Speaker 1: was complete political trench warfare in the Bush years, and

1391
01:23:09,400 --> 01:23:13,919
Speaker 1: that was when we were under attack by radical Islam

1392
01:23:14,040 --> 01:23:18,479
Speaker 1: and the global Jihad. We were united for about six

1393
01:23:18,520 --> 01:23:21,000
Speaker 1: months after nine eleven as a country, and then it

1394
01:23:21,120 --> 01:23:25,240
Speaker 1: very quickly turned into anything to destroy Bush. Bush is Hitler.

1395
01:23:25,479 --> 01:23:29,519
Speaker 1: I was in college and there were leftists on my

1396
01:23:29,600 --> 01:23:33,120
Speaker 1: campus and in the area of Amburst College who were

1397
01:23:33,160 --> 01:23:38,240
Speaker 1: making the case that they thought that Bush was basically

1398
01:23:38,280 --> 01:23:42,799
Speaker 1: a fascist along the lines of along the lines of Hitler,

1399
01:23:43,400 --> 01:23:46,160
Speaker 1: you know, that Bush. Bush had fascistic tennant just like

1400
01:23:46,200 --> 01:23:48,320
Speaker 1: you know. And they would say that Cheney was really

1401
01:23:48,400 --> 01:23:51,759
Speaker 1: running the country and that Haliburton was going to around

1402
01:23:51,840 --> 01:23:53,559
Speaker 1: us all up any day now. I mean, it's saying

1403
01:23:53,600 --> 01:23:57,040
Speaker 1: crazy stuff. So it was maddest not really around for that.

1404
01:23:58,560 --> 01:24:01,960
Speaker 1: Its maddest not a part of that situation. I would

1405
01:24:01,960 --> 01:24:05,400
Speaker 1: have to wonder during the Clinton years when there was

1406
01:24:05,479 --> 01:24:10,200
Speaker 1: a very acrimonious impeachment fight, you know, when when were

1407
01:24:10,240 --> 01:24:13,800
Speaker 1: we getting down to the business of governing. I look,

1408
01:24:13,840 --> 01:24:16,000
Speaker 1: I will tell you. I saw my friend Ben Dominic

1409
01:24:16,200 --> 01:24:18,800
Speaker 1: tweeted this out today and he's read Mattis his book.

1410
01:24:18,840 --> 01:24:22,160
Speaker 1: I haven't yet. I just told you what others tend

1411
01:24:22,200 --> 01:24:24,240
Speaker 1: not to say, which is that these books are a

1412
01:24:24,320 --> 01:24:28,719
Speaker 1: waste of time, They're boring, They're often either money grabs

1413
01:24:28,920 --> 01:24:34,879
Speaker 1: or just self aggrandizing, pedestal creation for the former government officials.

1414
01:24:34,920 --> 01:24:37,519
Speaker 1: You know, there was a time when the expectation was

1415
01:24:38,200 --> 01:24:40,519
Speaker 1: you served in the government and you just went into

1416
01:24:40,520 --> 01:24:43,720
Speaker 1: private life afterwards. And that was that he didn't need

1417
01:24:43,760 --> 01:24:49,680
Speaker 1: to create a post governmental cult around oneself. And there

1418
01:24:49,720 --> 01:24:54,240
Speaker 1: was a time when that was the norm. And I

1419
01:24:54,280 --> 01:24:56,400
Speaker 1: really mean that, right, we have seen and you can

1420
01:24:56,439 --> 01:24:59,760
Speaker 1: measure this. Unlike Mattis saying that politics used to be

1421
01:24:59,800 --> 01:25:01,800
Speaker 1: much more civil, I don't. I'm not even talking about

1422
01:25:01,800 --> 01:25:04,559
Speaker 1: you know, civil like meaning the Civil War, when we

1423
01:25:04,560 --> 01:25:09,360
Speaker 1: were literally killing our fellow Americans over at political political differences,

1424
01:25:09,439 --> 01:25:12,360
Speaker 1: so to the doing of hundreds of thousands of US

1425
01:25:14,520 --> 01:25:16,599
Speaker 1: I don't think. I don't think his politics very stute.

1426
01:25:16,800 --> 01:25:19,479
Speaker 1: I think that the analysis, I should say, is very stute.

1427
01:25:19,520 --> 01:25:22,760
Speaker 1: And then Ben Dominic was saying that the maddest book

1428
01:25:22,840 --> 01:25:26,800
Speaker 1: is just boring, which doesn't surprise doesn't surprise me at all,

1429
01:25:26,920 --> 01:25:29,639
Speaker 1: and given that I already know that without reading it.

1430
01:25:30,880 --> 01:25:32,639
Speaker 1: And also, you know how much work it would really

1431
01:25:32,680 --> 01:25:34,559
Speaker 1: is somebody who's in the process of writing a draft

1432
01:25:34,600 --> 01:25:36,680
Speaker 1: of a book right now, how much work, how much

1433
01:25:36,760 --> 01:25:41,880
Speaker 1: time it really takes. These individuals who have been used

1434
01:25:41,920 --> 01:25:44,000
Speaker 1: to having staffs do a lot of work for them

1435
01:25:44,000 --> 01:25:46,080
Speaker 1: and people writing speeches for them and doing all these things,

1436
01:25:46,840 --> 01:25:48,960
Speaker 1: they're gonna They're gonna sit at a computer at a

1437
01:25:49,080 --> 01:25:50,960
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, a typewriter. That's really kicking at

1438
01:25:51,000 --> 01:25:54,040
Speaker 1: old school Rusa Mark. Have you ever even used the typewriter?

1439
01:25:54,080 --> 01:25:57,200
Speaker 1: You know, I've never even touched a key on a typewriter,

1440
01:25:57,320 --> 01:26:00,840
Speaker 1: only keyboards. I haven't used one, but I've seen one

1441
01:26:00,840 --> 01:26:02,920
Speaker 1: and like touched the ya. I mean it's not a

1442
01:26:02,920 --> 01:26:05,559
Speaker 1: dinosaur like of course you've probably seen one, but I mean,

1443
01:26:05,560 --> 01:26:09,040
Speaker 1: you've ever actually tried to type with one? No? Yeah,

1444
01:26:09,080 --> 01:26:11,599
Speaker 1: I had computer class in elementary school. Yeah, I did too,

1445
01:26:11,640 --> 01:26:13,800
Speaker 1: I remember, and I remember thinking that this, you I

1446
01:26:13,840 --> 01:26:16,920
Speaker 1: was really smart and forward leaning in elementary school in

1447
01:26:16,960 --> 01:26:19,960
Speaker 1: that I was like, writing things out by hand is

1448
01:26:20,000 --> 01:26:23,720
Speaker 1: obviously way smarter and better. So this computer thing is ridiculous.

1449
01:26:23,720 --> 01:26:25,800
Speaker 1: Turns out that we were all gonna have to worry

1450
01:26:25,840 --> 01:26:27,880
Speaker 1: about carpal tunnel syndrome for the rest of our adult

1451
01:26:27,880 --> 01:26:31,559
Speaker 1: lives pretty soon. So so Mattis' book is pretty boring.

1452
01:26:31,920 --> 01:26:35,320
Speaker 1: But when he says that based on Ben Dominant's assessment,

1453
01:26:35,320 --> 01:26:37,120
Speaker 1: which I trust, I haven't read it yet myself, but

1454
01:26:37,160 --> 01:26:38,720
Speaker 1: I kind of know it. It was like when you

1455
01:26:38,720 --> 01:26:42,240
Speaker 1: see a movie trailer, you know, you know if it's

1456
01:26:42,240 --> 01:26:45,360
Speaker 1: good or not. Yea, not really, you know, yeah, technically

1457
01:26:45,360 --> 01:26:49,479
Speaker 1: you should see the movie, but yeah, you know, usually

1458
01:26:49,520 --> 01:26:53,639
Speaker 1: knows being in which the right I love this. On

1459
01:26:53,720 --> 01:26:56,720
Speaker 1: Rotten Tomatoes, I told you all to go and see

1460
01:26:56,920 --> 01:27:02,080
Speaker 1: Dave Chappelle's comedy special. I told you to go check

1461
01:27:02,120 --> 01:27:04,599
Speaker 1: it out. And just to give you a sense of

1462
01:27:05,720 --> 01:27:09,120
Speaker 1: what the score ratings were earlier today on Rotten Tomatoes,

1463
01:27:10,240 --> 01:27:17,719
Speaker 1: Sticks and Stones on Rotten Tomatoes has a Tomatometer score

1464
01:27:18,840 --> 01:27:25,200
Speaker 1: based on critics reviews of twenty nine percent positive. So

1465
01:27:25,680 --> 01:27:30,360
Speaker 1: that's that's that's a very low critics score. Who wants

1466
01:27:30,400 --> 01:27:34,160
Speaker 1: to guess, christer mark, what percentage of the three thousand,

1467
01:27:34,240 --> 01:27:36,880
Speaker 1: seven hundred and fifty three people who rated on Rotten

1468
01:27:36,920 --> 01:27:41,360
Speaker 1: Tomatoes liked Sticks and Stones the Dave Chappelle comedy specially.

1469
01:27:41,320 --> 01:27:48,800
Speaker 1: I told you about what's the percentage? Eighty two ninety nine. Wow. Yeah.

1470
01:27:48,880 --> 01:27:52,599
Speaker 1: So everybody who saw this thing who was a viewer

1471
01:27:53,040 --> 01:27:58,520
Speaker 1: thought it was hilarious, and seven out of ten critics

1472
01:27:58,680 --> 01:28:02,640
Speaker 1: who reviewed it and review things officially for their livelihoods

1473
01:28:03,439 --> 01:28:08,280
Speaker 1: thought it was bad. This is a microcosm of what

1474
01:28:08,800 --> 01:28:12,879
Speaker 1: woke culture does to you being woke, being a social

1475
01:28:12,920 --> 01:28:16,439
Speaker 1: justice warrior, you are not allowed to find funny things

1476
01:28:16,439 --> 01:28:19,880
Speaker 1: funny anymore. You're not allowed to laugh at anything other

1477
01:28:19,960 --> 01:28:25,600
Speaker 1: than white Christian males and mockery of them. You know

1478
01:28:25,680 --> 01:28:29,320
Speaker 1: that that's it. Anything. If you mock anybody else, you

1479
01:28:29,360 --> 01:28:31,880
Speaker 1: can't make jokes. You can't make jokes about women, you

1480
01:28:31,920 --> 01:28:35,719
Speaker 1: can't make jokes about any particular ethnic group, anything else.

1481
01:28:36,520 --> 01:28:39,280
Speaker 1: You are going to get slammed by the social justice left.

1482
01:28:39,320 --> 01:28:41,200
Speaker 1: We know that the good news is that people like

1483
01:28:41,280 --> 01:28:44,320
Speaker 1: what they like, and I'm happy to see that the

1484
01:28:44,360 --> 01:28:48,320
Speaker 1: public at large, left, right and everything, everything altogether, everyone

1485
01:28:48,360 --> 01:28:52,160
Speaker 1: thinks that Sticks and Stones by Dave Chappelle is hilarious.

1486
01:28:52,600 --> 01:28:54,880
Speaker 1: Because it is hilarious. We can't let this go on.

1487
01:28:54,960 --> 01:28:57,400
Speaker 1: They would take it out five hundred billion dollars a

1488
01:28:57,479 --> 01:29:01,599
Speaker 1: year out of this country, including tellectual property theft which

1489
01:29:01,680 --> 01:29:06,680
Speaker 1: was rampant. So our farmers will be helped. Nobody that

1490
01:29:06,720 --> 01:29:09,400
Speaker 1: we've done more for it than our farmers, and they understand.

1491
01:29:09,439 --> 01:29:11,479
Speaker 1: You have to win the war with This is a

1492
01:29:12,360 --> 01:29:16,280
Speaker 1: trade war, trade battle. You can call it anything you want.

1493
01:29:16,320 --> 01:29:18,479
Speaker 1: And this should have been done by presidents before me,

1494
01:29:18,520 --> 01:29:20,679
Speaker 1: and not just President Obama. This should have been done

1495
01:29:20,680 --> 01:29:23,599
Speaker 1: by President Bush and President Clinton. This should have been

1496
01:29:23,600 --> 01:29:27,200
Speaker 1: done a long time ago. China has been absolutely the

1497
01:29:27,240 --> 01:29:31,200
Speaker 1: World Trade Organization has been a disaster for the United States.

1498
01:29:31,600 --> 01:29:35,080
Speaker 1: China has taken advantage of it and US, and that's

1499
01:29:35,080 --> 01:29:37,599
Speaker 1: not happening anymore. But the farmers have been taken care

1500
01:29:37,600 --> 01:29:41,479
Speaker 1: of sixteen billion dollars and twelve billion dollars each year. Okay,

1501
01:29:42,880 --> 01:29:47,400
Speaker 1: everything that Trump just said there about the US posture

1502
01:29:47,400 --> 01:29:51,759
Speaker 1: towards China under his administration, everything said there's true. Previous

1503
01:29:51,760 --> 01:29:56,720
Speaker 1: administrations should have dealt with this and didn't. China is

1504
01:29:56,800 --> 01:30:00,800
Speaker 1: ripping us off, is playing dirty. The World Aid Organization

1505
01:30:00,880 --> 01:30:03,240
Speaker 1: should never have let China in, and it has been

1506
01:30:03,280 --> 01:30:06,960
Speaker 1: a disaster. Everything he's saying there is true, and we

1507
01:30:07,000 --> 01:30:10,040
Speaker 1: are supposed to skip past all of that in our

1508
01:30:10,080 --> 01:30:13,960
Speaker 1: assessment of this president as it relates to trade and

1509
01:30:14,000 --> 01:30:16,479
Speaker 1: just more generally. I mean, yet, Bernie Sanders today saying

1510
01:30:17,720 --> 01:30:23,120
Speaker 1: probably the most dangerous president in the history of presidents, Well,

1511
01:30:23,120 --> 01:30:24,600
Speaker 1: why is it that this president is supposed to be

1512
01:30:24,600 --> 01:30:26,559
Speaker 1: so dangerous? Is the only one who understands what we're

1513
01:30:26,560 --> 01:30:30,120
Speaker 1: really dealing with when it comes to China? Why did

1514
01:30:30,160 --> 01:30:31,960
Speaker 1: it come to the why why did it fall on

1515
01:30:32,040 --> 01:30:36,400
Speaker 1: this president to have to be the one who's willing

1516
01:30:36,439 --> 01:30:40,360
Speaker 1: to deal with this, willing to be in a position

1517
01:30:40,400 --> 01:30:42,519
Speaker 1: where he'll take the political heat. You know, what was

1518
01:30:42,560 --> 01:30:46,360
Speaker 1: the last time you can think of any of any

1519
01:30:46,400 --> 01:30:51,519
Speaker 1: politician who was doing something that he was right, He

1520
01:30:51,600 --> 01:30:54,000
Speaker 1: knew he was right, he was paying a political price,

1521
01:30:54,040 --> 01:30:55,880
Speaker 1: and he said, I know I'm gonna pay a political

1522
01:30:55,920 --> 01:30:57,439
Speaker 1: price for this anyway, but I want to do it.

1523
01:30:57,640 --> 01:31:00,200
Speaker 1: And I'm not saying it never happens. But that kind

1524
01:31:00,240 --> 01:31:06,160
Speaker 1: of leadership is rare. It is not the norm. Much

1525
01:31:06,200 --> 01:31:08,320
Speaker 1: more common for people to say, well, what's the most

1526
01:31:08,600 --> 01:31:10,840
Speaker 1: what is the most popular thing thing I can do here?

1527
01:31:10,880 --> 01:31:15,559
Speaker 1: The thing that will most most likely result in my

1528
01:31:15,680 --> 01:31:22,320
Speaker 1: continued continuation in power, my continued ability to hold the

1529
01:31:22,320 --> 01:31:24,400
Speaker 1: office I hold and they do that thing, and that's

1530
01:31:24,439 --> 01:31:27,000
Speaker 1: not what Trump is doing on China now. I do

1531
01:31:27,080 --> 01:31:31,360
Speaker 1: think that because of the focus on getting on getting

1532
01:31:31,400 --> 01:31:33,400
Speaker 1: a trade deal done, or at least on continuing to

1533
01:31:33,400 --> 01:31:36,880
Speaker 1: wage the trade war, the White House hasn't been as

1534
01:31:37,640 --> 01:31:40,360
Speaker 1: vocal and Trump hasn't been as vocal in support of

1535
01:31:40,400 --> 01:31:43,160
Speaker 1: the protesters in Hong Kong as I would like. But

1536
01:31:44,439 --> 01:31:49,519
Speaker 1: I understand he's trying to balance those two very important things,

1537
01:31:49,520 --> 01:31:52,760
Speaker 1: and ultimately, for us, here's the reality a trade war

1538
01:31:52,800 --> 01:31:54,559
Speaker 1: is more important than what's going on in Hong Kong.

1539
01:31:55,680 --> 01:32:06,320
Speaker 1: Might sound harsh, but that's true. Hey Dean Buck, it's

1540
01:32:06,400 --> 01:32:23,000
Speaker 1: time for Roll Call. I'm still very partial job Stall call.

1541
01:32:23,040 --> 01:32:24,599
Speaker 1: I always will be. I don't know why. I think

1542
01:32:24,600 --> 01:32:27,639
Speaker 1: it gets me the most fired up of our various

1543
01:32:27,800 --> 01:32:33,240
Speaker 1: Roll Call intros. So some fun news for all of you.

1544
01:32:33,400 --> 01:32:38,320
Speaker 1: As of end of this month, the show is going

1545
01:32:38,400 --> 01:32:42,240
Speaker 1: to be available via podcast earlier on in the day.

1546
01:32:42,320 --> 01:32:46,360
Speaker 1: We're hoping by three pm Eastern, so you can start

1547
01:32:46,400 --> 01:32:50,519
Speaker 1: to get this thing in your daily routine in time

1548
01:32:50,560 --> 01:32:54,559
Speaker 1: to drive home, in time for your commute or a

1549
01:32:54,640 --> 01:32:57,240
Speaker 1: prepping dinner. You no longer have to wait for the

1550
01:32:57,320 --> 01:33:02,439
Speaker 1: podcast until late at or nine pm, eastrom which is

1551
01:33:02,479 --> 01:33:06,519
Speaker 1: what it had been until pretty recently. Facebook dot com

1552
01:33:06,520 --> 01:33:11,400
Speaker 1: slash Buck Sexton. That's how we get this party started.

1553
01:33:12,479 --> 01:33:18,920
Speaker 1: Let's get to it. Owen Buck listening to yesterday's podcast,

1554
01:33:20,120 --> 01:33:22,880
Speaker 1: and you asked about a movie. I think you were

1555
01:33:23,000 --> 01:33:29,720
Speaker 1: thinking of Army of Darkness, Ding ding ding. You are correct, sir,

1556
01:33:30,600 --> 01:33:34,280
Speaker 1: I was thinking about Army of Darkness and I've never

1557
01:33:34,280 --> 01:33:37,280
Speaker 1: I've still never seen it. Producer Mark, you can just

1558
01:33:37,439 --> 01:33:38,880
Speaker 1: you can just give me the nod here. Did you

1559
01:33:38,880 --> 01:33:43,240
Speaker 1: ever see Army of Darkness? No, he doesn't. He doesn't

1560
01:33:43,439 --> 01:33:46,160
Speaker 1: mess with that childish nonsense, producer Mark only. He only

1561
01:33:46,200 --> 01:33:50,920
Speaker 1: sticks at the classics. H William next up here. I

1562
01:33:50,960 --> 01:33:54,120
Speaker 1: think you're missing the point about sleepy Joe. I think

1563
01:33:54,120 --> 01:33:56,519
Speaker 1: the reason he is still topping the polls is simple.

1564
01:33:56,880 --> 01:34:00,360
Speaker 1: The Democratic voters are not as crazy left as the

1565
01:34:00,400 --> 01:34:04,799
Speaker 1: party thinks they are. So the average dem won't vote

1566
01:34:04,800 --> 01:34:07,040
Speaker 1: for Trump, but also doesn't want to vote for a

1567
01:34:07,160 --> 01:34:09,799
Speaker 1: radical leftist. So Joe, with all of his false gaffs

1568
01:34:09,800 --> 01:34:13,840
Speaker 1: and senior moments, looks like the most sane person to them.

1569
01:34:14,000 --> 01:34:18,000
Speaker 1: She'll tie, that is, William. I mean, you're certainly correct

1570
01:34:18,040 --> 01:34:22,439
Speaker 1: from the perspective of why Joe Biden has the support

1571
01:34:22,520 --> 01:34:24,920
Speaker 1: that he does up to this point, even though it

1572
01:34:25,080 --> 01:34:32,280
Speaker 1: is quite clear that Biden is not a really a marquee,

1573
01:34:32,400 --> 01:34:36,479
Speaker 1: a first tier national level politician. And it is because

1574
01:34:36,479 --> 01:34:38,960
Speaker 1: he does have the name recognition thanks to his eight

1575
01:34:39,040 --> 01:34:44,920
Speaker 1: years as Obama's vice president, and he seems like a

1576
01:34:46,040 --> 01:34:50,680
Speaker 1: dogmatic but not insane Democrats. That's the best thing you

1577
01:34:50,680 --> 01:34:53,200
Speaker 1: could say for Joe Biden. Now he's also very old,

1578
01:34:53,280 --> 01:34:55,840
Speaker 1: he seems like he gets lost a lot, and there's

1579
01:34:55,840 --> 01:35:00,639
Speaker 1: all of that stuff. But here we have it. Jason,

1580
01:35:02,160 --> 01:35:04,720
Speaker 1: all right, buck, I've got to say I find it

1581
01:35:04,760 --> 01:35:08,839
Speaker 1: pretty disgraceful that Betto would be running on the backs

1582
01:35:08,880 --> 01:35:13,000
Speaker 1: of those killed in El Paso and elsewhere. He's using

1583
01:35:13,040 --> 01:35:15,120
Speaker 1: the slaughter of innocence to try and keep himself in

1584
01:35:15,120 --> 01:35:18,400
Speaker 1: the race for the presidency. Shame on him, and the

1585
01:35:18,520 --> 01:35:21,920
Speaker 1: sooner he drops out, the better it would be for

1586
01:35:22,680 --> 01:35:26,600
Speaker 1: the nation. I saw, Paul Jason, it was pretty fantastic.

1587
01:35:26,640 --> 01:35:29,200
Speaker 1: It was my favorite poll that I've seen in quite

1588
01:35:29,200 --> 01:35:34,120
Speaker 1: a while, because the pole had Betto at a whopping

1589
01:35:35,840 --> 01:35:39,120
Speaker 1: zero percent nationally at this point. Now, I don't know

1590
01:35:39,160 --> 01:35:42,360
Speaker 1: if that's an accurate pole or not, but I did

1591
01:35:42,400 --> 01:35:45,719
Speaker 1: see it, and it feels like betto Beto is a zero,

1592
01:35:45,880 --> 01:35:48,800
Speaker 1: so he should be at zero. Buck, Why are you

1593
01:35:48,840 --> 01:35:51,840
Speaker 1: so mean? I'm totally just singing this song to your

1594
01:35:51,880 --> 01:35:55,120
Speaker 1: girlfriend because I want to be her friend. I'm not

1595
01:35:55,680 --> 01:35:58,280
Speaker 1: I'm not that guy at the front party with a

1596
01:35:58,360 --> 01:36:01,600
Speaker 1: guitar who's just heading to be your girlfriend's friend. But like,

1597
01:36:01,680 --> 01:36:04,519
Speaker 1: how's other things in mind? I'm not that guy, Buck,

1598
01:36:05,040 --> 01:36:10,280
Speaker 1: I'd give myself an eight exactly exactly. He would always

1599
01:36:10,320 --> 01:36:14,160
Speaker 1: give himself an A. But he's a zero zero for

1600
01:36:14,320 --> 01:36:21,360
Speaker 1: betto Susan. Here we go. Hey, Before I started my business,

1601
01:36:21,400 --> 01:36:24,519
Speaker 1: I had a bumper sticker that read halt climate Change,

1602
01:36:24,920 --> 01:36:29,040
Speaker 1: I like seventy and Sonny. Before that, I worked for

1603
01:36:29,080 --> 01:36:31,680
Speaker 1: the government going to public sector businesses, and I had

1604
01:36:31,720 --> 01:36:36,120
Speaker 1: another bumper sticker that read government adult supervision required. Because

1605
01:36:36,120 --> 01:36:38,559
Speaker 1: of a union flap, we could have any bumper stickers

1606
01:36:38,560 --> 01:36:41,439
Speaker 1: we wanted. I also copied a bumper sticker I saw

1607
01:36:41,520 --> 01:36:45,200
Speaker 1: annoy a liberal work succeed be Happy. I got the

1608
01:36:45,280 --> 01:36:51,080
Speaker 1: most positive comments on that one. Love the show Shields High.

1609
01:36:51,120 --> 01:36:53,160
Speaker 1: I mean, I used to have a mug with Rumsfeld

1610
01:36:53,200 --> 01:36:54,760
Speaker 1: on it. Back in the day. I had a lot

1611
01:36:54,840 --> 01:36:59,080
Speaker 1: of right wing kitch I think you could say I

1612
01:36:59,080 --> 01:37:05,040
Speaker 1: had a lot of collectibles and Bush Gewat. I was

1613
01:37:05,080 --> 01:37:08,120
Speaker 1: big into the GWAT, the Global War on Terror At,

1614
01:37:08,120 --> 01:37:11,840
Speaker 1: a lot of Gewat memorabilia. I don't really have much

1615
01:37:11,880 --> 01:37:14,680
Speaker 1: of it anymore. I've got I've reached the point now

1616
01:37:14,680 --> 01:37:19,200
Speaker 1: where all my old CIA stuff, all my stuff from

1617
01:37:19,600 --> 01:37:22,880
Speaker 1: countries all over the world, and photos of me, you know,

1618
01:37:22,960 --> 01:37:25,840
Speaker 1: briefing the president and doing other cool stuff, that's all

1619
01:37:25,880 --> 01:37:27,880
Speaker 1: just like locked away in a closet now. I don't really,

1620
01:37:28,520 --> 01:37:31,200
Speaker 1: I don't know. I used to have a little almost

1621
01:37:31,200 --> 01:37:35,559
Speaker 1: like a shrine to government service in my very small apartment,

1622
01:37:35,600 --> 01:37:38,760
Speaker 1: but now it's it's an under the bed in a

1623
01:37:38,880 --> 01:37:43,120
Speaker 1: plastic tupperware bin kind of thing shrine. So yeah, I'm

1624
01:37:43,120 --> 01:37:46,960
Speaker 1: not as I'm not as into the remembrance of those

1625
01:37:47,000 --> 01:37:52,679
Speaker 1: government days. C k hey buck, you mentioned General Mattis

1626
01:37:52,720 --> 01:37:55,120
Speaker 1: saying he had seven thousand books and read them all.

1627
01:37:55,400 --> 01:37:57,040
Speaker 1: I wasn't sure if you meant you didn't think he

1628
01:37:57,080 --> 01:38:00,000
Speaker 1: could have read that many. My my love of book

1629
01:38:00,240 --> 01:38:03,519
Speaker 1: second only to my love of Dalmatians. I don't know, ck,

1630
01:38:03,800 --> 01:38:09,200
Speaker 1: that's already, that's strike one. I'm just kidding. Dalmatians are fine.

1631
01:38:09,439 --> 01:38:13,640
Speaker 1: They're very pretty if you like dogs that don't necessarily

1632
01:38:13,640 --> 01:38:16,360
Speaker 1: have the Swedish temperament. I'm just I'm gonna lose. I'm

1633
01:38:16,400 --> 01:38:18,400
Speaker 1: gonna lose a listener here. I'm kidding. Ck, I'm kidding.

1634
01:38:18,479 --> 01:38:21,280
Speaker 1: Dalmatians are great, and I'm guessing I have thousands of

1635
01:38:21,320 --> 01:38:24,160
Speaker 1: books myself, she writes, I'm kind of afraid to attempt

1636
01:38:24,200 --> 01:38:26,240
Speaker 1: to count them. With bookcases in almost every room in

1637
01:38:26,320 --> 01:38:29,840
Speaker 1: my house, including the garage and the basement, finding books

1638
01:38:29,840 --> 01:38:31,679
Speaker 1: for ten cents at a thrift shop is like hitting

1639
01:38:31,680 --> 01:38:33,840
Speaker 1: the lottery. For me, I read approx. Me a one

1640
01:38:33,880 --> 01:38:37,040
Speaker 1: hundred books a year. It seems quite possible for General

1641
01:38:37,040 --> 01:38:39,840
Speaker 1: Matters to have read seven thousand over the course of

1642
01:38:39,880 --> 01:38:42,800
Speaker 1: his life so far. Good Reads is a fun app

1643
01:38:42,840 --> 01:38:44,640
Speaker 1: to keep track of what you've read. Even if I

1644
01:38:44,680 --> 01:38:46,600
Speaker 1: live to one hundred, they'll still be books awaiting in

1645
01:38:46,640 --> 01:38:49,479
Speaker 1: my shelves. Fill your house with stacks of books and

1646
01:38:49,520 --> 01:38:52,160
Speaker 1: all the crannies and all the nooks doctor Seus's words

1647
01:38:52,160 --> 01:38:55,160
Speaker 1: of wisdom. Love your show, buck Ck, thank you for

1648
01:38:55,200 --> 01:38:57,880
Speaker 1: your note. And maybe maybe I'm just annoyed at myself

1649
01:38:57,880 --> 01:39:00,960
Speaker 1: because I feel like I used to rip through more

1650
01:39:01,000 --> 01:39:04,040
Speaker 1: books and more quickly than I have in the last

1651
01:39:04,040 --> 01:39:06,720
Speaker 1: couple of years because I've been very busy trying to

1652
01:39:06,720 --> 01:39:08,800
Speaker 1: do this whole media thing. I still read. I still

1653
01:39:08,840 --> 01:39:14,479
Speaker 1: read books. I actually just finished I just finished the

1654
01:39:17,320 --> 01:39:21,200
Speaker 1: Kevin Williamson's book on Socialism, which I found very very interesting.

1655
01:39:22,000 --> 01:39:26,439
Speaker 1: It's pretty he deep dives, that's for sure. And I'm

1656
01:39:26,840 --> 01:39:28,840
Speaker 1: actually in the process right now. I've really died. I

1657
01:39:28,920 --> 01:39:30,719
Speaker 1: kind of want to read this book just on salt

1658
01:39:31,360 --> 01:39:35,400
Speaker 1: that I downloaded. It's just salt, but the history of

1659
01:39:35,400 --> 01:39:37,320
Speaker 1: it and how important. I know it sounds weird, but

1660
01:39:37,360 --> 01:39:40,559
Speaker 1: it was a best seller. I think Kurlanski, I think

1661
01:39:40,600 --> 01:39:42,760
Speaker 1: the name of the author I might read that. We'll see.

1662
01:39:42,800 --> 01:39:44,599
Speaker 1: I'll let you guys know. You know, I did see

1663
01:39:44,640 --> 01:39:48,880
Speaker 1: something yesterday the guy who is behind the Goldman Sacks

1664
01:39:48,920 --> 01:39:52,400
Speaker 1: elevator account, which at one point was one of the

1665
01:39:52,439 --> 01:39:57,280
Speaker 1: funniest parody accounts on Twitter period. Now the funniest parody

1666
01:39:57,320 --> 01:40:01,240
Speaker 1: account on Twitter is Titanium McGrath, No question, Titany McGrath

1667
01:40:01,920 --> 01:40:06,559
Speaker 1: is the best social media parody account on Twitter that

1668
01:40:06,680 --> 01:40:09,120
Speaker 1: I have seen. And I'm a fan. I like to

1669
01:40:09,120 --> 01:40:13,479
Speaker 1: think that I'm a social media parody connoisseur. May we

1670
01:40:13,600 --> 01:40:18,200
Speaker 1: be a seer, but Titaniy McGrath is woker than woke,

1671
01:40:18,280 --> 01:40:21,799
Speaker 1: is the way I would describe it. But Goldman Sachs Elevator,

1672
01:40:21,920 --> 01:40:25,800
Speaker 1: especially in the aftermath of the two thousand and eight

1673
01:40:26,560 --> 01:40:33,600
Speaker 1: financial meltdown, was just a really funny and biting satire

1674
01:40:33,920 --> 01:40:37,840
Speaker 1: of investment banker attitudes. That guy published a list of

1675
01:40:37,840 --> 01:40:40,160
Speaker 1: the hundred books that you have to read if you're

1676
01:40:40,479 --> 01:40:43,920
Speaker 1: that every man has to read. And I looked at

1677
01:40:43,960 --> 01:40:45,479
Speaker 1: it was a pretty good list. But there's a lot

1678
01:40:45,479 --> 01:40:48,080
Speaker 1: of stuff on there that I think that people just

1679
01:40:48,560 --> 01:40:50,800
Speaker 1: believe they have to read because everyone else said so.

1680
01:40:51,000 --> 01:40:54,400
Speaker 1: So maybe I'll come up with a little list of

1681
01:40:54,439 --> 01:40:57,080
Speaker 1: my own at some point. I know, I keep saying,

1682
01:40:57,080 --> 01:40:59,720
Speaker 1: I'll post all the books you guys want. I just

1683
01:40:59,760 --> 01:41:02,120
Speaker 1: post all the books are all my Kindle online on

1684
01:41:02,200 --> 01:41:04,240
Speaker 1: a list, and you can see what I've read and

1685
01:41:04,520 --> 01:41:07,880
Speaker 1: see what I'm still hoping to get to. So there's

1686
01:41:07,880 --> 01:41:10,639
Speaker 1: a lot that look at. If I could, I would

1687
01:41:10,680 --> 01:41:13,280
Speaker 1: just spend three hours a day reading a book reading

1688
01:41:13,280 --> 01:41:15,880
Speaker 1: books two hours if I if I had my way,

1689
01:41:16,320 --> 01:41:18,720
Speaker 1: two hours a day of just reading books. But it's

1690
01:41:18,840 --> 01:41:20,920
Speaker 1: very hard to carve out. I got two hours day

1691
01:41:20,920 --> 01:41:22,320
Speaker 1: to read the books. I gotta go to the gym

1692
01:41:22,360 --> 01:41:25,040
Speaker 1: for an hour I gotta And then some days I'm

1693
01:41:25,080 --> 01:41:28,120
Speaker 1: just in sweats, trying to prepare for radio and TV

1694
01:41:28,200 --> 01:41:30,000
Speaker 1: and things, and I never get any of these things done.

1695
01:41:30,000 --> 01:41:33,360
Speaker 1: It's tough, you know what it's like, folks. Procrastination is

1696
01:41:33,400 --> 01:41:35,960
Speaker 1: the devil that sits on all of our shoulders all

1697
01:41:35,960 --> 01:41:40,599
Speaker 1: the time, Steph, book, could you move into the belly

1698
01:41:40,960 --> 01:41:43,200
Speaker 1: or rather, how could you move into the belly of

1699
01:41:43,240 --> 01:41:45,479
Speaker 1: the beast? No matter how much I love the culture there,

1700
01:41:45,520 --> 01:41:48,840
Speaker 1: I would never live there. I go to Amorous to

1701
01:41:48,960 --> 01:41:51,080
Speaker 1: visit family and can't get out of there quick enough.

1702
01:41:51,160 --> 01:41:53,519
Speaker 1: I love lefty hippies as long as they are three

1703
01:41:53,800 --> 01:42:01,080
Speaker 1: states away. Shields Hill. Well, Steph, I'd say, you know,

1704
01:42:01,120 --> 01:42:04,160
Speaker 1: I'm from New York, and so I can't seed this

1705
01:42:04,240 --> 01:42:07,360
Speaker 1: place to the commies entirely. You know, I can't bring

1706
01:42:07,400 --> 01:42:14,200
Speaker 1: myself to be completely I can't abandon my hometown, even

1707
01:42:14,200 --> 01:42:16,639
Speaker 1: though I know they are all these leftists running around

1708
01:42:16,640 --> 01:42:18,240
Speaker 1: and who run everything and all the rest of it.

1709
01:42:18,280 --> 01:42:22,439
Speaker 1: So we'll see Thorburn. Hi there, Buck, if you'd like

1710
01:42:22,520 --> 01:42:25,200
Speaker 1: to discuss the more recent mass shootings are Thorburn. That's

1711
01:42:25,200 --> 01:42:28,320
Speaker 1: a cool Thorburn sounds like the name of a character

1712
01:42:28,439 --> 01:42:31,920
Speaker 1: from Game of Thrones, you know, Thorburn of the North,

1713
01:42:33,240 --> 01:42:37,960
Speaker 1: Thorburn of the Two Swords. You know that's kind of cool.

1714
01:42:38,840 --> 01:42:41,760
Speaker 1: Maybe not all right? Whatever either, Buck, if you'd like

1715
01:42:41,840 --> 01:42:44,280
Speaker 1: to discuss the more recent mass shootings across the country

1716
01:42:44,280 --> 01:42:47,360
Speaker 1: and perhaps the why and the how behind their frequency,

1717
01:42:47,800 --> 01:42:49,400
Speaker 1: I know of a man who's spoken on the topic

1718
01:42:49,439 --> 01:42:51,600
Speaker 1: more than once and is, to say the least, very insightful.

1719
01:42:51,960 --> 01:42:54,280
Speaker 1: So with the possibility that you'll have another segment where

1720
01:42:54,280 --> 01:42:56,600
Speaker 1: you decide to talk about America's endless mass shootings, and

1721
01:42:56,600 --> 01:42:59,240
Speaker 1: you'd like to bring him on the name, the guy

1722
01:42:59,479 --> 01:43:03,960
Speaker 1: is Tom Freel. Okay, thanks, I've never heard of this guy,

1723
01:43:04,080 --> 01:43:08,840
Speaker 1: but I will. I'll google him. Google it. That's what

1724
01:43:09,120 --> 01:43:10,800
Speaker 1: Alex Jones used to say, and he get really fired

1725
01:43:10,840 --> 01:43:14,360
Speaker 1: up about something. You google. It's on Google Illuminati to

1726
01:43:14,360 --> 01:43:16,040
Speaker 1: build the birds. It's all It's all there. It's all

1727
01:43:16,040 --> 01:43:17,160
Speaker 1: there if you just want to read it, if you

1728
01:43:17,200 --> 01:43:20,080
Speaker 1: just do do the research. Don't don't don't listen to

1729
01:43:20,080 --> 01:43:23,840
Speaker 1: that Maintree media telling you all that other stuff. Buck

1730
01:43:24,080 --> 01:43:27,799
Speaker 1: Sexton infiltration a conservative media guy. That guy's a CIA plant.

1731
01:43:27,800 --> 01:43:29,519
Speaker 1: Buck Sex. I know I know what he's I know

1732
01:43:29,600 --> 01:43:32,360
Speaker 1: his game. He's got that smug face. Looks like that

1733
01:43:32,400 --> 01:43:35,120
Speaker 1: guy from Parks and Wreck. Looks just like him, except

1734
01:43:35,120 --> 01:43:37,240
Speaker 1: a little, a little bigger. It's like Parks and Wreck

1735
01:43:37,680 --> 01:43:39,800
Speaker 1: with poofy your hair. You can't trust a man his

1736
01:43:39,880 --> 01:43:43,040
Speaker 1: hair is that poofy. He may have a point about that.

1737
01:43:43,120 --> 01:43:49,879
Speaker 1: Actually he may have a point. Nicola spell flik Nikola.

1738
01:43:50,880 --> 01:43:53,479
Speaker 1: If the premise of an old horror movie revolted you

1739
01:43:53,520 --> 01:43:56,600
Speaker 1: that much, A thousand dollars says, it's the Human Centipede.

1740
01:43:56,640 --> 01:43:58,960
Speaker 1: If it is, I'll send the money anyways, if you

1741
01:43:59,000 --> 01:44:01,920
Speaker 1: promise to not watch it. Thank you for your work. Buck.

1742
01:44:03,360 --> 01:44:06,320
Speaker 1: I've heard The Human Centipede is really gross, but I

1743
01:44:06,439 --> 01:44:10,599
Speaker 1: wasn't even I can't even begin to tell you or

1744
01:44:10,640 --> 01:44:17,000
Speaker 1: remember what exactly it was that That producer Brandon, who

1745
01:44:17,040 --> 01:44:21,599
Speaker 1: now is doing more, he guessed DJ's for us sometimes

1746
01:44:21,720 --> 01:44:24,000
Speaker 1: in the show, but we don't see much of him

1747
01:44:24,040 --> 01:44:26,519
Speaker 1: these days. But he's very into horror movies, and I

1748
01:44:26,920 --> 01:44:30,080
Speaker 1: just I can't horror movies depressed me. I watched that

1749
01:44:30,120 --> 01:44:32,120
Speaker 1: movie The Witch, and I told you guys about it,

1750
01:44:32,439 --> 01:44:34,040
Speaker 1: and I was a little freaked out for a couple

1751
01:44:34,080 --> 01:44:37,559
Speaker 1: of days. And I'm a grown man, it's not afraid

1752
01:44:37,600 --> 01:44:40,160
Speaker 1: of nothing to nobody except apparently scary movies on the

1753
01:44:40,160 --> 01:44:43,559
Speaker 1: television screen. That gets me scared. I don't like it,

1754
01:44:44,800 --> 01:44:50,760
Speaker 1: so yeah, Brian, whoa, here we go. Buck. Not sure

1755
01:44:50,800 --> 01:44:52,960
Speaker 1: how most people in the States, how much most people's

1756
01:44:53,080 --> 01:44:56,120
Speaker 1: it's realized that how badly the Bahamas was hit. I've

1757
01:44:56,120 --> 01:44:59,360
Speaker 1: been fortuit have spent a lot of time working in

1758
01:44:58,520 --> 01:45:01,680
Speaker 1: the in the Bahamas of the years, Marsh Harbor, the

1759
01:45:01,680 --> 01:45:04,360
Speaker 1: major town that area, has been completely wiped off the map.

1760
01:45:04,720 --> 01:45:06,559
Speaker 1: The people of Bahamas are some of the nicest, most

1761
01:45:06,560 --> 01:45:09,519
Speaker 1: genuine people I've ever met. The government of the Bahamas

1762
01:45:09,560 --> 01:45:12,000
Speaker 1: is bloated, corrupt and bankrupt, so recovery is not going

1763
01:45:12,040 --> 01:45:13,559
Speaker 1: to be easy for them. Would be nice to see

1764
01:45:13,560 --> 01:45:16,599
Speaker 1: a few major cruise lines pony up, who've been profiting

1765
01:45:16,640 --> 01:45:19,920
Speaker 1: from the Bahamians generosity for so many years, send a

1766
01:45:19,920 --> 01:45:22,680
Speaker 1: few boats over to support these good people alongside our

1767
01:45:22,760 --> 01:45:25,880
Speaker 1: armed forces are already there to pray for the Bahamas. Brian. Well, Brian,

1768
01:45:25,960 --> 01:45:28,559
Speaker 1: that's a very important note to end the show on today,

1769
01:45:28,560 --> 01:45:30,920
Speaker 1: so thank you for writing it in. We are sending

1770
01:45:30,920 --> 01:45:32,479
Speaker 1: thoughts and prayers and if there's a way to send

1771
01:45:32,520 --> 01:45:36,719
Speaker 1: more resources, food, medicine assistance. We should all certainly consider

1772
01:45:36,760 --> 01:45:41,519
Speaker 1: doing so in the ways that we can. Team has

1773
01:45:41,520 --> 01:45:43,559
Speaker 1: always an honor and a privilege to be here with

1774
01:45:43,600 --> 01:45:46,599

01:45:50,439 --> 01:45:51,320
Speaker 1: Shields High
