1
00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:17,280
Speaker 1: You are entering the freedom hunt. The left is rallying

2
00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:21,919
Speaker 1: behind ilhan Omar despite her tendency to say things that

3
00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:25,680
Speaker 1: are anti Semitic and also to downplay nine to eleven.

4
00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:28,319
Speaker 1: What is really at work here? Plus the cathedral of

5
00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:31,760
Speaker 1: Notre Dame is still burning. We'll give you updates on

6
00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:35,920
Speaker 1: this breaking news story. And what is the presence plan

7
00:00:36,120 --> 00:00:38,960
Speaker 1: for sanctuary cities and illegal immigrants going to turn into.

8
00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:40,600
Speaker 1: We'll got that a much more coming up on the

9
00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:44,080
Speaker 1: Buck side. This is the Buck Sexton Show, where the

10
00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:47,400
Speaker 1: mission or mission is to decode what really matters with

11
00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:54,000
Speaker 1: actionable intelligence. Make no mistake American, You're a great American.

12
00:00:54,080 --> 00:01:00,600
Speaker 1: Again the Buck Sexton Show begins. Remember the NMPDE didn't

13
00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:09,080
Speaker 1: Buck Sexton. No. Here was founded after nine eleven because

14
00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:15,080
Speaker 1: they recognized that some people did something. So you have

15
00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:18,119
Speaker 1: no idea whether I'd have another one. Another plane is hit.

16
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:25,560
Speaker 1: Some people did something. Oh my goodness, there is smoke

17
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:32,559
Speaker 1: pouring out. Some people did something. It just flew straight

18
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:53,920
Speaker 1: into it. Welcome to the Buck Saxon Show. That audio

19
00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 1: was from what President Trump retweeted over the weekend and

20
00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:03,760
Speaker 1: has now cause such a fiery back and forth between

21
00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:07,760
Speaker 1: the left and the right between Democrats and Republicans. That

22
00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:11,280
Speaker 1: was the voice of ilhan Omar saying that when it

23
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:14,840
Speaker 1: comes to nine to eleven, some people did something, and

24
00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:17,520
Speaker 1: then going on to talk about how the real victims,

25
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:20,680
Speaker 1: the people that we should have been really worried about,

26
00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:25,160
Speaker 1: were those who were concerned for their civil liberties in

27
00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:30,320
Speaker 1: the Islamic community after nine eleven, skipping past the nearly

28
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:37,920
Speaker 1: three thousand people who were murdered, many of them crushed, incinerated,

29
00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:44,160
Speaker 1: murdered on nine to eleven by Jehadest fanatics trying to

30
00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:49,799
Speaker 1: bring about a war that would destroy our civilization. It's

31
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:52,280
Speaker 1: quite a thing to move past that as though it

32
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:55,800
Speaker 1: wasn't anything worthy of note. But a sitting member of

33
00:02:55,840 --> 00:03:00,960
Speaker 1: Congress speaking about nine to eleven dismissed it. It's some

34
00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 1: people did something something. Huh. Now, look, I'm one that

35
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:13,680
Speaker 1: likes to give second chances. I misspeak, sometimes people misspeak

36
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:17,720
Speaker 1: on things. But she doesn't claim that she misspoke. The

37
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:23,120
Speaker 1: claim here is not that representative ilhan Omar meant to

38
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:27,119
Speaker 1: say something very different or just got tired and caught

39
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:30,280
Speaker 1: up in the moment, and you know that that was

40
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:32,680
Speaker 1: not the claim. The claim is that it is racist.

41
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:37,960
Speaker 1: You see racist to call her out for this, it

42
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:42,440
Speaker 1: is islamophobic to call her out for this. And with

43
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 1: this we see a time tested and favorite tactic of

44
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:50,360
Speaker 1: the left. Don't engage on the substance, don't engage on

45
00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:57,880
Speaker 1: the intellectual merits slime the other side, Smear them, lie

46
00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:03,280
Speaker 1: about them, assassinate their characters, take issue with who they

47
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:07,720
Speaker 1: are as people, suggest that they're bad human beings for

48
00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:10,520
Speaker 1: thinking what they do, for disagreeing with you. This is

49
00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 1: a preview of what you're going to see heading into

50
00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:19,200
Speaker 1: the twenty twenty election from Democrats as a primary motive

51
00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:21,000
Speaker 1: attack against Trump. This is not going to be something

52
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,680
Speaker 1: that just kind of comes up sometimes. This is going

53
00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:27,160
Speaker 1: to be one of the one of the main ways

54
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:31,600
Speaker 1: that they try to undermine this president. But I don't

55
00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:35,039
Speaker 1: want to just move too far into the tactic here

56
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:39,280
Speaker 1: and pull apart why this is so important for the left.

57
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:45,520
Speaker 1: They need to pause on that for one second. Ilhan

58
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:53,360
Speaker 1: Omar is favorably disposed toward care Council on American Islamic Relations,

59
00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:56,800
Speaker 1: which is an unindicted co conspirator with different terrorist groups,

60
00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:00,400
Speaker 1: has a history of terror apology in this kind country

61
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:04,839
Speaker 1: and shows up as I have seen firsthand, because I've

62
00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:07,920
Speaker 1: had to occasionally be on panels or in debates where

63
00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:11,520
Speaker 1: CARE shows up to claim that the real concern when

64
00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:16,320
Speaker 1: there are dozens, maybe hundreds, maybe thousands of dead bodies

65
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:18,520
Speaker 1: in the ground, of people who are the victims of terrorism,

66
00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:20,840
Speaker 1: the real concern is that somebody might ask the wrong

67
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:23,720
Speaker 1: question about Islam afterwards. That's what CARE tends to do.

68
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:29,679
Speaker 1: That's the Care approach. We should really be worried about

69
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:33,200
Speaker 1: those who speak ill of the prophet Muhammad after a

70
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:36,480
Speaker 1: massive terror attack. That's where the system really breaks down.

71
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:38,679
Speaker 1: Don't worry so much about the terror the dead people,

72
00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:41,200
Speaker 1: the people whose lives are ruined because their loved ones

73
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:44,560
Speaker 1: are never to be seen again because some fanatic screaming

74
00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:48,680
Speaker 1: Allahu Akbar killed a lot of them. So I have

75
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:55,799
Speaker 1: no patience, no time for the mouthpieces of Care. Also

76
00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:59,200
Speaker 1: that she says CARE was founded after Ilmar doesn't know

77
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:01,440
Speaker 1: anything about Kara Seams, or doesn't know very much at all.

78
00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:04,200
Speaker 1: It says it was founded after nine eleven. It was

79
00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:07,160
Speaker 1: founded in I think nineteen ninety four, but long before

80
00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:10,720
Speaker 1: nine eleven then they've been making They've been running around

81
00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 1: yelling Islamophobia at people for many years before the nine

82
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:22,120
Speaker 1: to eleven attacks. But now they're saying that it's it's

83
00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:25,840
Speaker 1: racist that Trump brought this up, or that he would

84
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 1: he would magnify this criticism of Ilhan Omar and that

85
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:34,480
Speaker 1: that's what this really comes down to. Oh, and they

86
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:36,960
Speaker 1: take it a step further to play clip here's just

87
00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:39,919
Speaker 1: classics CNN Jeffrey Tuben saying this is all because Trumps

88
00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:44,120
Speaker 1: are racist? Play three. What do all the people that

89
00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:48,920
Speaker 1: he's vilifying have in common? They're all people of color?

90
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:52,839
Speaker 1: You know, it is all you know, aoc omar. I

91
00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:55,520
Speaker 1: mean this is you know, whether it's the basketball players

92
00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 1: or the football players. I mean it's He's always after

93
00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:03,080
Speaker 1: people of color, and at is not a coincidence? Is

94
00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:07,640
Speaker 1: Jeffrey Tubina moron? Or does he just play one on TV?

95
00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 1: Everyone that Trump goes after a person of color? How

96
00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:15,920
Speaker 1: if I said something so stupid on television, I would

97
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:19,120
Speaker 1: I would feel embarrassed for a long time to come. Oh,

98
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:21,920
Speaker 1: I don't know. Is Crooked Hillary a person of color

99
00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:23,520
Speaker 1: because Trump seemed to go after her a lot and

100
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:27,360
Speaker 1: still does. Is Shifty Adam Schiff a person of color

101
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:30,240
Speaker 1: because Trump goes after him? And I don't even want

102
00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:35,360
Speaker 1: to get into the whole list. Comey struck page Brandon.

103
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:39,400
Speaker 1: I mean, all these people that Trump just rightfully annihilates

104
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:45,080
Speaker 1: on Twitter and in his public statements. Is is Jim Acosta? Well, okay, yeah,

105
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:47,800
Speaker 1: Jim Acosta. I guess technically he's Latino. But there are

106
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:49,880
Speaker 1: other people at CNN that he goes after two or

107
00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:54,880
Speaker 1: are they all people of color, you know? Or are

108
00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:57,400
Speaker 1: they people that fit into this kind No, of course

109
00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:02,000
Speaker 1: not the president. Uh you know, the President is in

110
00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:07,120
Speaker 1: fact someone who goes after those who go after him,

111
00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:13,040
Speaker 1: and the President is a counterpuncher. But to say that

112
00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,800
Speaker 1: he only goes after people of different races about this

113
00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:21,320
Speaker 1: is it's just a lie. It's just not true. Um.

114
00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:23,800
Speaker 1: You know, I can't even I think of all the

115
00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:26,360
Speaker 1: people that are are white that he makes fun of

116
00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:29,520
Speaker 1: and mocks on a daily, on a regular basis, so

117
00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:31,800
Speaker 1: many do you think Trump, you know, likes av Nati?

118
00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:39,880
Speaker 1: Uh So anyway, such a stupid comment. But this is

119
00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:42,080
Speaker 1: what gets you applause on CNN. This is what gets

120
00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:48,479
Speaker 1: you applause on CNN. And then they go even further. Um,

121
00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:53,320
Speaker 1: then they decide that the issue is that Trump is

122
00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:57,480
Speaker 1: putting her life in Jeopardy. Now. That was what this

123
00:08:57,600 --> 00:09:00,880
Speaker 1: turned into over the weekend, that that Trump is responsible

124
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:04,360
Speaker 1: for incitement to violence. This is an expansion on what

125
00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:07,680
Speaker 1: you will generally hear from the left, and that is

126
00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:09,920
Speaker 1: things that they really don't like, words that they really

127
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:17,320
Speaker 1: don't like are tantamount too close to violence. Might as

128
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:21,840
Speaker 1: well be speech equals violence. This has become a tactic

129
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:26,960
Speaker 1: of censorship, this Ilahan Omar debate. While in many ways

130
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:30,000
Speaker 1: it's just about a stupid comment she made, and you know,

131
00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:33,560
Speaker 1: it's indefensible, and there oh, there are some who defended

132
00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:37,360
Speaker 1: by the way. J Jerry Nadler, for example, who's going

133
00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:39,199
Speaker 1: to make a few appearances in the show. He defended

134
00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:41,520
Speaker 1: the play clip too. Did you take any issue with

135
00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:45,040
Speaker 1: the way Congresswoman Omar characterized nine to eleven? No I

136
00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:47,599
Speaker 1: did not. She characterized it only in passing she was

137
00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:54,560
Speaker 1: talking about discrimination against the Muslim Americans and she she

138
00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:56,640
Speaker 1: just said that after that happened, it was used as

139
00:09:56,640 --> 00:10:01,920
Speaker 1: an excuse for lots of discrimination and from withdrawal of

140
00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:05,160
Speaker 1: civil liberties. No I did not take that. I've had

141
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:06,880
Speaker 1: some problems with some of her other remarks, but not

142
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:11,760
Speaker 1: but not with that one. No problem with what she says,

143
00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:15,880
Speaker 1: even Note eleven, just like a thing speaking about Care,

144
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:19,000
Speaker 1: which is an organization that does a lot of apologizing

145
00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:23,200
Speaker 1: for the radical tendencies of Islam. There's a debate from

146
00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:25,280
Speaker 1: I forget when from back in the day where they

147
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:30,280
Speaker 1: had one of their apologists on after the Danish cartoons

148
00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:36,480
Speaker 1: fiasco where you had a cartoonist in Denmark, as you know,

149
00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:39,120
Speaker 1: have the prophet Mohammed, and then there were embassies that

150
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:41,880
Speaker 1: were attacked and people there were there was violence that

151
00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:44,240
Speaker 1: broke out because of what one cartoonist in Denmark did,

152
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:46,199
Speaker 1: and there was a guy from CARE. I never forget

153
00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:49,720
Speaker 1: this as well. You know, we shouldn't, we shouldn't do

154
00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:52,640
Speaker 1: things like this. It's an active intimidation. He would he said,

155
00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:56,959
Speaker 1: to be critical of Islam in this way, it intimidates people. Oh,

156
00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:00,559
Speaker 1: that's right, speech equals violence. The words are based violence.

157
00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:04,120
Speaker 1: Therefore will be violent in response to your words. This

158
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:11,960
Speaker 1: is a very dangerous, a very dangerous approach. But the

159
00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:15,800
Speaker 1: left takes this on many issues. You know, they will

160
00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:20,440
Speaker 1: say that President Trump is inciting violence against ilhan Omar

161
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:24,319
Speaker 1: merely by criticizing what she says. And she's you know,

162
00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:29,520
Speaker 1: she's not a legitimate target for this criticism. And now

163
00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:31,360
Speaker 1: that we're hearing that she gets death threats and all

164
00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:34,120
Speaker 1: these lots of people get death threats, that doesn't death

165
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:36,280
Speaker 1: threats are terrible, people should be punished for them. But

166
00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:39,280
Speaker 1: you can't be Hell, we cannot be held responsible for

167
00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:43,959
Speaker 1: the death threats of imbeciles because we criticize public figures

168
00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:49,760
Speaker 1: because censorship. The left likes to censor. And what you

169
00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:53,480
Speaker 1: see with the ilhan Omar situation is all of the

170
00:11:53,520 --> 00:12:00,760
Speaker 1: different tactics and tools that the left will use. They'll

171
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:04,400
Speaker 1: say that the criticism of her is racist. They'll say

172
00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:08,720
Speaker 1: that criticism of her is leading to death threats. They

173
00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:14,040
Speaker 1: want to create special categories for individuals to be public figures.

174
00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:16,600
Speaker 1: But they're victims, you see. They have to be treated

175
00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:20,079
Speaker 1: and talked about differently because they're victims because of their ethnicity,

176
00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:24,960
Speaker 1: or their religion, or their sexual orientation, or they're to

177
00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:28,280
Speaker 1: be treated to a different set of rules in public discourse.

178
00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:30,120
Speaker 1: Leftist trying to do that right now. You're going to

179
00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:33,880
Speaker 1: see a lot more of this going forward. You're going

180
00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:36,600
Speaker 1: to see a lot more and the effort to make

181
00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:40,560
Speaker 1: it impossible to have an open and honest discussion about

182
00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:44,880
Speaker 1: how crazy some of these leftists are. What they're saying.

183
00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:48,600
Speaker 1: Why it's wrong because oh, you said, what about AOC,

184
00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:53,240
Speaker 1: You must be a racist? You said what about Ilhan Omar,

185
00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:57,960
Speaker 1: You must be a racist. How can we have any

186
00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:03,120
Speaker 1: real discussion about the country if the approach the Democrats

187
00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:05,040
Speaker 1: are going to have is well, you can't disagree with

188
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:08,760
Speaker 1: certain people on heated and passionate issues of real public

189
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:11,640
Speaker 1: consequence that really matter, because it must just be that

190
00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:16,479
Speaker 1: you're down talking to them. You are part of the patriarchy.

191
00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:20,800
Speaker 1: Your white privilege is showing you're not allowed to criticize

192
00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:24,520
Speaker 1: these individuals because you do so from a position of

193
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:31,560
Speaker 1: white supremacy. They will say they are trying to destroy

194
00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:37,520
Speaker 1: legitimate discourse, the differences that we have in policy and

195
00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:40,320
Speaker 1: in the ideas that we share publicly. They want to

196
00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:42,520
Speaker 1: control it. They want to control the language, which we

197
00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:45,280
Speaker 1: talked about last week, and they also want to control

198
00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:49,280
Speaker 1: who has the right to speak. When are you allowed

199
00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:52,600
Speaker 1: to disagree? When are you able to stand up and

200
00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:57,080
Speaker 1: say what that person is saying is wrong? Life says

201
00:13:57,080 --> 00:14:00,640
Speaker 1: it can't say that Ilhan Holm are very defensive about

202
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:05,040
Speaker 1: out the anti Semitic Muslim congresswoman from Minnesota very defensive.

203
00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:10,559
Speaker 1: We should start asking questions about why that is and

204
00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:13,360
Speaker 1: what they think the rules are going to be that

205
00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:15,520
Speaker 1: the rest of us have to follow when it comes

206
00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:18,400
Speaker 1: to members of Congress, people in the media, elected officials.

207
00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:21,440
Speaker 1: If you're in a protected class, you can say any

208
00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:24,000
Speaker 1: crazy thing you want, no one's allowed to criticize you.

209
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:27,480
Speaker 1: Or if there are some people that act poorly in

210
00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:30,480
Speaker 1: response to the crazy things the Democrat says by threatening

211
00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:32,560
Speaker 1: them the rest of us all have, We're all to

212
00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:35,080
Speaker 1: be held accountable for that. I'm sorry. I won't be

213
00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:39,080
Speaker 1: lectured to in that way by people that demonize Brett

214
00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:42,600
Speaker 1: Kavanaugh as a rapist, by people that said the Covington

215
00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:51,280
Speaker 1: Catholic kids were evil racists, that completely demean people who

216
00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:55,400
Speaker 1: are Trump supporters. I mean they lie about people and

217
00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:58,160
Speaker 1: destroy them and never give it a second thought. We're

218
00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:00,200
Speaker 1: going to be lectured to by that media about how

219
00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:02,720
Speaker 1: we should be more careful in our discourse. I'm sorry,

220
00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:05,120
Speaker 1: I don't think so, not on my watch, not on

221
00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:12,360
Speaker 1: my time. We'll be right back. This is an incitement

222
00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:20,680
Speaker 1: to violence against Congresswoman Omar, against our fellow Americans who

223
00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:25,280
Speaker 1: happened to be Muslim. This is part and parcel of

224
00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:29,280
Speaker 1: what we've seen from an administration that has described Mexican

225
00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:33,680
Speaker 1: immigrants as rapists and criminals, a man who has called

226
00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:37,880
Speaker 1: a silence seekers, and he calls the animals an infestation.

227
00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:44,560
Speaker 1: There you go, incitement to violence from Batteau, who's like

228
00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:50,720
Speaker 1: so upset about this, and why can't Trump like just

229
00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:56,480
Speaker 1: be nice and like open his heart to Batou's America.

230
00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:01,640
Speaker 1: So I'm not I'm not getting ahead of the facts here, folks.

231
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:04,680
Speaker 1: They're straight up saying that that the President United States

232
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:08,640
Speaker 1: is calling for violence against a female Muslim minority member

233
00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:10,840
Speaker 1: of Congress. That's what they're saying. This is the storyline

234
00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:14,400
Speaker 1: they're going with. And as if that weren't crazy enough,

235
00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:17,240
Speaker 1: here's a Twitter exchange that you're gonna have to just

236
00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:19,480
Speaker 1: hear to believe. So Dan Crenshaw, who I'm sure many

237
00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:25,400
Speaker 1: of you know, Texas Congressman, and he responded to Ilhan Omar.

238
00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:27,200
Speaker 1: Now he's a Texas Congresman who also happens to be

239
00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:31,960
Speaker 1: a combat veteran Navy seal who lost an eye to

240
00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:34,480
Speaker 1: the shrapnel from an IED and that's why he wears

241
00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:36,040
Speaker 1: an eyepatch. I'm sure all of you know this, but

242
00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:40,360
Speaker 1: just in case. Crenshaw responded to Ilhan Omar saying some

243
00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:43,840
Speaker 1: people who did something with quote first member of Congress

244
00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:46,480
Speaker 1: to ever describe terrorists who killed thousands of Americans as

245
00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:52,640
Speaker 1: some people who did something. Alexandrio Kazio Cortez responded to

246
00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:57,280
Speaker 1: wounded Purple Heart recipient veteran Dan Crenshaw with the following,

247
00:16:57,560 --> 00:16:59,960
Speaker 1: you refuse to co sponsor the nine to eleven vict

248
00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:04,040
Speaker 1: compensation fund, yet have the audacity to drum resentment toward

249
00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:10,879
Speaker 1: Ilham with completely out of context quotes. Folks, AOC twenty

250
00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:14,480
Speaker 1: nine year old former bartender, AOC left wing radical imbecile

251
00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:22,800
Speaker 1: is publicly calling out Dan Crenshaw, decorated navycal combat veteran

252
00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:26,199
Speaker 1: lost in eye to an ied fighting the Taliban, for

253
00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:31,840
Speaker 1: not doing enough to fight terrorism. This is the modern left.

254
00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:35,600
Speaker 1: There there are no limits to the stupidity, no outer

255
00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:41,800
Speaker 1: boundaries to the dishonesty. They are completely unself aware about

256
00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:44,560
Speaker 1: where they really stand in the grand scheme of things

257
00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:48,919
Speaker 1: and in the universe of counter terrorism fighting. For Okasio

258
00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:54,320
Speaker 1: Cortez to publicly lecture Dan Crenshaw, this is kind of

259
00:17:54,320 --> 00:18:00,440
Speaker 1: a a perfect metaphor for how Democrats and Republican interact

260
00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:04,880
Speaker 1: on this issue these days, you know, no respect, no deference,

261
00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:07,920
Speaker 1: no nothing for somebody who has put so much more

262
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:10,560
Speaker 1: on the line, knows so much more about the issue

263
00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:16,760
Speaker 1: and has real, real credibility and gravitas on this little

264
00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:22,000
Speaker 1: little imbecile. AOC is gonna call out Dan Crenshaw, You know, AOC.

265
00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:24,359
Speaker 1: You know he might want to pick up an M

266
00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:26,960
Speaker 1: four and head to Afghanistan or Iraq and actually get

267
00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:30,280
Speaker 1: some street cred before you start lecturing Dan Crenshaw on

268
00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:37,640
Speaker 1: terrorism and nine eleven victims, folks. He would be forthcoming

269
00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:40,920
Speaker 1: only if he releases the entire report and the underlying

270
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:44,359
Speaker 1: evidence to the Judiciary Committee, which has been done in

271
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:48,560
Speaker 1: every previous instance where they were looking into presidential or

272
00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:52,760
Speaker 1: other misconduct. That would be now the Judiciary Committee is

273
00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:56,480
Speaker 1: the proper locus for deciding what has to be withheld

274
00:18:56,480 --> 00:19:00,040
Speaker 1: from the public. Again, that's what's been done in the

275
00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:03,119
Speaker 1: past to deny the Judiciary Committee in the Congress. The

276
00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:06,639
Speaker 1: knowledge of what's in parts of the Malor report is

277
00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:09,479
Speaker 1: not proper. And of course, uh the Attorney General when

278
00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:12,800
Speaker 1: he started talking completely without evidence as he said about

279
00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:16,639
Speaker 1: spying on the Trump campaign, when he when what he

280
00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:23,480
Speaker 1: meant was executing judicially ordered Lawrence showed his bias and

281
00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:26,640
Speaker 1: the fact that he's really acting as as a personal

282
00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:28,720
Speaker 1: agent to the president rather than as the Attorney General

283
00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:32,160
Speaker 1: of the United States in this matter. Everything this guy

284
00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:36,359
Speaker 1: Nadler says is not true. I mean, it's it's almost amazing.

285
00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:41,520
Speaker 1: You almost stand back with a degree of wow on

286
00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:46,560
Speaker 1: your face when this guy talks. Wow. Congressman Nadler just

287
00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:52,720
Speaker 1: trying so hard to rewrite the script here make it

288
00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:55,720
Speaker 1: seem like, Oh, that's right, bar is such a bad guy,

289
00:19:56,000 --> 00:20:00,200
Speaker 1: you can't trust him. And who believes this non Oh,

290
00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:04,760
Speaker 1: unfortunately Democrats do. Spying is spying, folks. I worked for

291
00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:08,400
Speaker 1: a spying agency for years. I spent my twenties as

292
00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:13,639
Speaker 1: a spy agency employee. And let me tell you something.

293
00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:20,800
Speaker 1: National security letters and fieser warrants and phone taps and

294
00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:27,920
Speaker 1: email capture, and that is spying. If someone came in

295
00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:31,920
Speaker 1: from China and said, I'm not spying, I'm just secretly

296
00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:36,160
Speaker 1: listening to the communications of senior government officials or people

297
00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:40,159
Speaker 1: tied to the Trump campaign and reading their emails, you'd say, oh,

298
00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:42,879
Speaker 1: that's a spy. You wouldn't say, oh, well, that was

299
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:45,320
Speaker 1: ordered by the government of China. Therefore, it's not no,

300
00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:52,159
Speaker 1: that's spying. Spying is the clandestine or surreptitious surveillance or

301
00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:56,480
Speaker 1: acquiring of information. That's all it is. That's the definition.

302
00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:00,840
Speaker 1: So yes, they were spying on the campaign. That they

303
00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:02,960
Speaker 1: that they still want to fight this fight just shows

304
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:08,920
Speaker 1: how delusional the Democrats are, and they're also desperate to

305
00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:11,480
Speaker 1: try and set up a narrative that is favorable to

306
00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:16,320
Speaker 1: them in advance of the release, which we have been

307
00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:23,080
Speaker 1: told today the Mulla Report drops Thursday. The Mula Report

308
00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:26,080
Speaker 1: will be out Thursday. I believe Thursday morning. I will

309
00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:31,320
Speaker 1: have to speed read that thing like nobody's business, because

310
00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:33,800
Speaker 1: it's my business to speed read it, and hopefully by

311
00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:35,520
Speaker 1: the time I get on air at six o'clock, I

312
00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:38,480
Speaker 1: will have read through, if not all of it, a

313
00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:41,560
Speaker 1: vast majority of it. I think it's four hundred pages

314
00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:43,760
Speaker 1: with maybe one hundred redacted, is what I heard today,

315
00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:47,920
Speaker 1: So three hundred pages I could get through. I get

316
00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:50,520
Speaker 1: through three hundred pages is by showtime. That'll be my plan.

317
00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:52,600
Speaker 1: So I've read the whole report Thursday, want to come

318
00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:54,919
Speaker 1: on air because you know, the Democrats are going, oh

319
00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:58,480
Speaker 1: my gosh, you know there's look at all the obstruction.

320
00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:04,120
Speaker 1: That's what's gonna that's what's gonna up in here. They're

321
00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:07,560
Speaker 1: going to say that there was plenty of grounds for obstruction,

322
00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:10,680
Speaker 1: but the president got bailed out, because you know that's

323
00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:12,560
Speaker 1: what happened. Republicans are the ones who get bailed out,

324
00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:18,120
Speaker 1: not Democrats. Sure, buddy, sure, stay all that one. Nadler

325
00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:20,280
Speaker 1: was on one of the boring CNN shows. But this

326
00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:22,800
Speaker 1: is what he said about obstruction. Play eleven. Attorney General

327
00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:24,760
Speaker 1: Bill Barr. He did reach a conclusion. He says there

328
00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:28,960
Speaker 1: is not sufficient evidence to establish that the president obstructed justice.

329
00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:32,359
Speaker 1: Does that end the debate over obstruction of justice? Well,

330
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:37,280
Speaker 1: certainly not, especially since Attorney General Bar, before he became

331
00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:39,920
Speaker 1: Attorney General, wrote a long memo in which he said

332
00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:44,840
Speaker 1: that a president could not obstruct justice because the president

333
00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:47,720
Speaker 1: is the boys to the Justice Department and could order

334
00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:50,560
Speaker 1: it around to to to in student an investigation, to

335
00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:53,240
Speaker 1: eliminate investigation, and could not be questioned about that. In

336
00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:54,960
Speaker 1: other words, he thinks that as a matter of law,

337
00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:58,959
Speaker 1: a president can't obstruct justice, which is a very wild

338
00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:04,879
Speaker 1: and theory to which most people do not do not agree.

339
00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:07,879
Speaker 1: Um and the fact of the matter is we should

340
00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:11,080
Speaker 1: see and judge for ourselves, and that's for Congress to

341
00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:14,439
Speaker 1: judge whether the president obstructive justice or not, and for

342
00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:17,160
Speaker 1: the public ultimately. It's not It's not the Bailey Wick

343
00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:19,560
Speaker 1: of the Attorney General. It is not. No, it is

344
00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:23,719
Speaker 1: not the Bailey Wick of the Attorney General. Again, everything

345
00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:26,960
Speaker 1: Nadler says it's wrong. This guy just goes on TV

346
00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:31,280
Speaker 1: just says wrong things wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong. It is

347
00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:35,200
Speaker 1: an avalanche of wrong from from Congressman Nadler every time

348
00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:39,520
Speaker 1: he opens his mouth on television these days. Let's just

349
00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:42,760
Speaker 1: start with this. His whole old bar thinks that you

350
00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:47,000
Speaker 1: can't be guilty of obstructure. Editor h. Mueller didn't didn't

351
00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:50,800
Speaker 1: want obstruction charges either, chief, So where does that leave you?

352
00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:55,440
Speaker 1: Is Muller ind on this too? Oh oh, don't think

353
00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:58,840
Speaker 1: the Democrats are past that. Don't think that that's off

354
00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:02,280
Speaker 1: the table. Mueller must have played golf once at a

355
00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:05,280
Speaker 1: Trump resort and and somebody there made a made a

356
00:24:05,320 --> 00:24:08,920
Speaker 1: play for cultivating Mueller is a deep, deep, deep, deep

357
00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:12,040
Speaker 1: secret asset to only be deployed, you know, twenty years

358
00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:13,840
Speaker 1: in the future when Trump would need I mean, people

359
00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:20,720
Speaker 1: are crazy, crazy about this stuff. Mueller said no obstruction

360
00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:25,760
Speaker 1: because there was no obstruction. Mueller said no charges because

361
00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:29,120
Speaker 1: they couldn't charge him. Do you really think for one

362
00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:32,480
Speaker 1: second that Mueller would have skipped the opportunity to look

363
00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:35,040
Speaker 1: like a hero to the fifty percent of the country

364
00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:40,240
Speaker 1: that absolutely hates Donald Trump with a burning passion if

365
00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:43,040
Speaker 1: they think of how many zeros would be added to

366
00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:46,080
Speaker 1: Muller's memoir if only he had just he doesn't have

367
00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:48,199
Speaker 1: to even win the case, just bring the charges against

368
00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:51,320
Speaker 1: just say that the president has to be charged. But

369
00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:53,520
Speaker 1: they always leave this out. They hope that people are

370
00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:56,160
Speaker 1: not paying close enough attention to know what's really true here.

371
00:24:57,720 --> 00:24:59,359
Speaker 1: So Mueller is a part of this, and then is

372
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:04,160
Speaker 1: just you know, for him to claim that the attorney

373
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:06,520
Speaker 1: general isn't the one who makes this determination, it's like

374
00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:09,200
Speaker 1: he doesn't care what you know, he just doesn't care

375
00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:13,399
Speaker 1: what the truth is. He just doesn't It doesn't matter

376
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:16,639
Speaker 1: to him that it is obviously the case that this

377
00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:20,840
Speaker 1: this false attorney general. I would also note folks who

378
00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:25,719
Speaker 1: bailed out Hillary for clearly violating the law. I mean, she,

379
00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:28,239
Speaker 1: you know, Hillary was the equivalent of like she had

380
00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:30,879
Speaker 1: a giant bag of weed and they found her and

381
00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:32,760
Speaker 1: she's on video and she's like, yeah, I got a

382
00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:35,040
Speaker 1: giant bag of weed, like and then they just made

383
00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:37,919
Speaker 1: it go away. I mean Hillary's charges were the Justi

384
00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:42,040
Speaker 1: Smollette of Espionage Act charges, as in, it could not

385
00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:44,760
Speaker 1: be more on, I mean, the hoax part of it.

386
00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:48,720
Speaker 1: It could not be more obvious what happened. Why didn't

387
00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:51,399
Speaker 1: Hillary get charged? Oh? Because the justice system worked. No,

388
00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:55,480
Speaker 1: because the Attorney General and James Comey and Lauretta Lynch,

389
00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:59,040
Speaker 1: they made up an excuse for her. They didn't say

390
00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:00,440
Speaker 1: she didn't do it. They just they're not going to

391
00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:03,040
Speaker 1: charge her because she didn't mean it. That that was

392
00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:06,000
Speaker 1: what the excuse was. She didn't mean it. Let's not

393
00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:12,639
Speaker 1: be mean to her. I'm nice, she says. It's an

394
00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:14,800
Speaker 1: entirely different situation with Trump and Muller. We know that

395
00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:16,520
Speaker 1: Trump wasn't getting the benefit of the doubt. Look at

396
00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:18,040
Speaker 1: what they did to the people around Trump that they

397
00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:22,359
Speaker 1: could charge. But no matter what comes out of this

398
00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:24,399
Speaker 1: report on Thursday, the Democrats are going to claim it

399
00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:32,120
Speaker 1: their's obstruction because the machinery of propaganda is already in motion.

400
00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:35,800
Speaker 1: And what they're going to say is, see the president

401
00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:39,080
Speaker 1: of the United States committed obstruction. We need to now

402
00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:44,159
Speaker 1: consider impeachment charges. We need to consider how we punish

403
00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:47,080
Speaker 1: the president for this terrible transgression. And then they want

404
00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:49,800
Speaker 1: to drag that out. You're going to hear about obstruction

405
00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:53,280
Speaker 1: and obstruction and obstruction for the next nine months on

406
00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:57,640
Speaker 1: an endless loop from Democrats. They're never going to let

407
00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:01,040
Speaker 1: it drop until they think it is no longer useful

408
00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:04,120
Speaker 1: for them, even if you and I know that they're crazy.

409
00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:06,760
Speaker 1: By the way, this is what the people that read

410
00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:09,080
Speaker 1: you know, the Slate dot Com, the New York Times

411
00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:13,200
Speaker 1: editorial page, watch CNN. They're gonna love all this obstruction

412
00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:15,080
Speaker 1: talk now, can't get enough of it. It's gonna be

413
00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:20,520
Speaker 1: like catnip for them. Scooby snacks except obstruction shrewber Wow,

414
00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:22,119
Speaker 1: I need to work on my That was a terrible

415
00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:26,560
Speaker 1: Scooby screwy. Nope, still bad. My Scooby is not good. Guys,

416
00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:29,920
Speaker 1: got a code, read myself. We're gonna hit a quick break.

417
00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:35,000
Speaker 1: We'll be right back. The fire that they're having at

418
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:39,879
Speaker 1: the Notre Dame Cathedral is something like a few people

419
00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:45,120
Speaker 1: have witnessed. When we left, we had a whole group

420
00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:48,080
Speaker 1: of your great representatives, and when we left the plane.

421
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:51,879
Speaker 1: It was it was burning at a level that you

422
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:55,760
Speaker 1: rarely see a fire burn. It's one of the great

423
00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:58,960
Speaker 1: treasures of the world, the greatest artists in the world.

424
00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:02,120
Speaker 1: Probably if you think about it, I would say Jovida.

425
00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:05,639
Speaker 1: It might be greater than almost any museum in the world.

426
00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:08,679
Speaker 1: And it's burning very badly. It looks like it's burning

427
00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:12,240
Speaker 1: to the ground. But it's a terrible sight to behold.

428
00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:22,960
Speaker 1: Horrific today watching the cathedral of Notre Dame in Paris

429
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:26,560
Speaker 1: just in a blaze. It was hard to believe. At first.

430
00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:31,119
Speaker 1: I saw the initial screenshots of it on social media

431
00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:34,240
Speaker 1: and I thought, this is some this is some really

432
00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:38,680
Speaker 1: bad sick joke that someone is spreading this. Maybe it's

433
00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:40,520
Speaker 1: fake news. You know, you just don't want to believe

434
00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:46,040
Speaker 1: it at first. Sure enough, the tallest single part, the

435
00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:54,840
Speaker 1: main the highest of all the peaks of Notre Dame

436
00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:59,200
Speaker 1: Cathedral came down the highest tower and people watched it

437
00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:02,440
Speaker 1: as it was all on flames. And this is a

438
00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:05,360
Speaker 1: it was for me. I had to turn it off.

439
00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:09,640
Speaker 1: I couldn't keep watching it. It felt like watching a

440
00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:14,000
Speaker 1: surveillance video of somebody walking around the louver with a

441
00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:18,880
Speaker 1: sledge hammer. You know, just just smashing Michelangelo and da

442
00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:21,520
Speaker 1: Vinci and Monet, and you know, just just walking around

443
00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:23,400
Speaker 1: the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City with

444
00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:25,400
Speaker 1: a razor blade and just taking it to all the

445
00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:31,520
Speaker 1: great Renaissance works and it was just horrible. You know.

446
00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:34,920
Speaker 1: I've been to Notre Dame Cathedral at least three or

447
00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:40,520
Speaker 1: four times, and it is one of the most beautiful

448
00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:45,680
Speaker 1: single structures in the world in my opinion, And there's

449
00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:49,480
Speaker 1: so much history. Stretches back to the twelfth century. It

450
00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:55,080
Speaker 1: has been standing in the city of Paris through plagues

451
00:29:55,200 --> 00:30:00,320
Speaker 1: and through pestilence and through war, and you know, as

452
00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:04,000
Speaker 1: many were pointing out today, even survived the Nazis. But

453
00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:09,880
Speaker 1: one one spark, one flame. We don't know yet exactly

454
00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:13,880
Speaker 1: what happened here. I know producer Mike is a little

455
00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:17,440
Speaker 1: he's suspicious of at least foul play. I think we

456
00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:22,760
Speaker 1: could say that, Mike. I'm I'm withholding judgment so far.

457
00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:26,000
Speaker 1: The reporting that look, I'm not there, I'm not on

458
00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:29,000
Speaker 1: the scene. I can't ask anybody any specific questions about it.

459
00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:32,800
Speaker 1: The reporting that I'm seeing is saying that they they

460
00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:35,040
Speaker 1: believe that this was some kind of a terrible accident.

461
00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:39,160
Speaker 1: We'll see, we'll find we'll find out more. All right, Mike,

462
00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:45,160
Speaker 1: you're a little suspicious, fair to say, Yeah, Mike is

463
00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:49,760
Speaker 1: suspicious of what's going on here? I am. I'm waiting

464
00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:51,480
Speaker 1: on this one. I don't see any I don't see

465
00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:54,160
Speaker 1: any evidence to point to other than just saying, you know,

466
00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:57,320
Speaker 1: I'm going with my gut on what could have happened here.

467
00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:00,120
Speaker 1: But it's it's terrible, and it's it look at it's

468
00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:03,120
Speaker 1: a reminder that nothing is permanent. It's actually a line

469
00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:08,480
Speaker 1: from from Game of Thrones, which I did watch over

470
00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:13,560
Speaker 1: this weekend with the new season, and you know, there's

471
00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:17,000
Speaker 1: a linear who says, you know, everything essentially everything fades.

472
00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:18,600
Speaker 1: I forget exactly how we said it, but that's the

473
00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:23,840
Speaker 1: young people keep their distance from old people because old

474
00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:27,560
Speaker 1: people remind them that nothing is permanent. Even the cathedral

475
00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:30,520
Speaker 1: of Notre Dame, which has been around for you know,

476
00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:34,600
Speaker 1: going on a millennium, nothing is permanent. Now they were

477
00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:38,040
Speaker 1: able to save the outer structure, I believe it's not.

478
00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:43,600
Speaker 1: It has not completely burned down, so there's some you know,

479
00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:50,160
Speaker 1: the main structure has been saved. But it's people think

480
00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:52,320
Speaker 1: when you think of Paris. I mean that the two,

481
00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:56,239
Speaker 1: the two physical structures that come to mind are at

482
00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:59,080
Speaker 1: least for me and I think for most people, uh,

483
00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:04,200
Speaker 1: Notre Dame and the Eiffel Tower. And the Eiffel Tower

484
00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:08,400
Speaker 1: is very visible, but it's nowhere near I think the same.

485
00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:11,480
Speaker 1: First of all, nowhere near the historical significance of Notre Dame,

486
00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:16,720
Speaker 1: but also nowhere near the spiritual significance. Even if you

487
00:32:16,760 --> 00:32:20,600
Speaker 1: are not a believer, even if you're not a Roman

488
00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:25,520
Speaker 1: Catholic or a Christian of any kind, Notre Dame was

489
00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:31,160
Speaker 1: a manifestation of physical beauty on earth that was awe inspiring,

490
00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:35,120
Speaker 1: and in that sense it was pointing to the divine.

491
00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:38,920
Speaker 1: Whatever the divine means for the individual in this case,

492
00:32:40,080 --> 00:32:45,080
Speaker 1: there was something awe inspiring about it. It was a tremendous,

493
00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:51,720
Speaker 1: you know, tremendous monument to what human beings were capable

494
00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:55,160
Speaker 1: of in the twelfth century. And then when you add

495
00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:59,440
Speaker 1: added to it all the spirituality and the role that

496
00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:05,520
Speaker 1: cathedrals like Notre Dame played in Western civilization and in

497
00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:09,920
Speaker 1: the spread and growth of the best parts of Western civilization,

498
00:33:10,560 --> 00:33:13,520
Speaker 1: those that we would like to see replicated by the

499
00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:17,680
Speaker 1: rest of the world, including the not West. I think

500
00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:20,200
Speaker 1: it is. It's a hard day for a lot of people.

501
00:33:20,240 --> 00:33:26,920
Speaker 1: It really was like like a dear friend to the

502
00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:31,600
Speaker 1: whole world was consumed with flames, and just for for

503
00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:36,080
Speaker 1: no reason, for no reason, at least no reason that

504
00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:39,720
Speaker 1: we know of. Right now, you had people watching this

505
00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:43,640
Speaker 1: in real time, A lot of social media has posts

506
00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:47,040
Speaker 1: up about this. There there is I would be remiss

507
00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:50,360
Speaker 1: if I didn't say that that Notre Dame has featured

508
00:33:50,520 --> 00:33:57,640
Speaker 1: in attacks that were planned, at least in by by

509
00:33:57,640 --> 00:33:59,880
Speaker 1: different ISIS groups. I mean, Notre Dame is a very

510
00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:04,280
Speaker 1: very visible symbol of not just Paris and France, but

511
00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:08,680
Speaker 1: of Christianity in the West, and so there have been

512
00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:12,160
Speaker 1: failed attacks, there have been aboarded attacks, there have been

513
00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:18,960
Speaker 1: disrupted plots stretching back for for many years. I don't

514
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:22,120
Speaker 1: have any evidence right now of any of that. If

515
00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:25,160
Speaker 1: I did, I would, you know, I would not be

516
00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:29,440
Speaker 1: shy about making that, making that analytic determination. But I

517
00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:32,960
Speaker 1: think right now we have to assume that the reports

518
00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:35,120
Speaker 1: were seeing so far are accurate in the reports, or

519
00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:41,239
Speaker 1: that there was construction ongoing. And I do believe I

520
00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:45,560
Speaker 1: saw that there weren't any construction workers during this blaze,

521
00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:49,840
Speaker 1: but it might have been electronic electric equipment left behind it.

522
00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:53,160
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm not a fire expert either, so

523
00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:55,520
Speaker 1: this is not something that I usually can bring more

524
00:34:55,560 --> 00:35:00,960
Speaker 1: than a lay person's interpretation of people were crying though,

525
00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:03,920
Speaker 1: I mean it's really really affected them. There's something that

526
00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:11,000
Speaker 1: is very magical and memorable about Notre Dame and I've,

527
00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:12,680
Speaker 1: as I said, I've been there and it's one of

528
00:35:12,680 --> 00:35:15,000
Speaker 1: those things that you always you always remember the first

529
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:17,880
Speaker 1: time you see it, you always remember the first day

530
00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:21,120
Speaker 1: that you are in its presence. It feels almost like

531
00:35:21,160 --> 00:35:24,200
Speaker 1: a living being that you are visiting. I'm glad that

532
00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:26,759
Speaker 1: they're able to save some of it from total destruction,

533
00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:30,360
Speaker 1: but it's a sad day, a sad day for the West,

534
00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:32,600
Speaker 1: and to start off Holy Week this way also has

535
00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:39,919
Speaker 1: a lot of people feeling ill at ease as long

536
00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:44,560
Speaker 1: as Democrats continue to ignore the crisis at the border,

537
00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:47,080
Speaker 1: and we have to look at all options across the

538
00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:49,320
Speaker 1: table so that the town's right there on the border

539
00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:52,520
Speaker 1: aren't taking on the entire burden, and that we're shifting

540
00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:56,600
Speaker 1: some of that burden to places who constantly claim to

541
00:35:56,719 --> 00:35:59,560
Speaker 1: want to have open borders and want to have an

542
00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:02,960
Speaker 1: open city nobody thinks that this is the ideal solution.

543
00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:05,839
Speaker 1: But until we can fix the crisis at the border,

544
00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:07,960
Speaker 1: we have to look at all options. This is one

545
00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:11,319
Speaker 1: of them. Whether or not it moves forward, that's yet

546
00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:15,920
Speaker 1: to be determined. I thought that Democrats and sanctuary cities

547
00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:18,640
Speaker 1: couldn't get enough illegal aliens. I thought the illegal aliens

548
00:36:18,640 --> 00:36:22,840
Speaker 1: were the foundation of America. According to left right, this

549
00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:25,000
Speaker 1: is what we've been told for a long time. Now,

550
00:36:26,840 --> 00:36:30,480
Speaker 1: they do the jobs Americans won't do. They commit fewer

551
00:36:30,560 --> 00:36:33,799
Speaker 1: crimes than Americans. They're they're better than Americans. I mean,

552
00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:36,759
Speaker 1: this has become a mantra on the left. This has

553
00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:42,319
Speaker 1: become a very oft repeated claim, and you hear it

554
00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:46,080
Speaker 1: from all over the place that Democrats really must believe

555
00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:50,759
Speaker 1: this because they say it all the time. And yet

556
00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:56,520
Speaker 1: here we are looking at the issue of sanctuary cities

557
00:36:56,560 --> 00:37:02,960
Speaker 1: and the possibility of transferring people two sanctuary cities who

558
00:37:03,080 --> 00:37:06,280
Speaker 1: have just arrived at the border, and lo and behold,

559
00:37:06,320 --> 00:37:11,040
Speaker 1: what a shock. The illegal aliens getting dropped off in

560
00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:15,840
Speaker 1: in downtown Los Angeles by the bus load is not

561
00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:21,480
Speaker 1: something that Democrats are excited about. Well, well, why is that? Now?

562
00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:23,560
Speaker 1: I would make the argument, and I have. I think

563
00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:25,319
Speaker 1: this is a prize in people. I think illegals would

564
00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:28,520
Speaker 1: like it, meaning that I think that for a lot

565
00:37:28,560 --> 00:37:31,560
Speaker 1: of them to be brought to it, because otherwise, you know,

566
00:37:31,680 --> 00:37:34,040
Speaker 1: if the government doesn't move them somewhere, and the government's

567
00:37:34,080 --> 00:37:37,440
Speaker 1: not going to be a door to door ferrying service

568
00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:39,520
Speaker 1: for these people, right, So it's not if you have

569
00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:44,600
Speaker 1: relatives in Peoria. I don't think that the federal government's

570
00:37:44,600 --> 00:37:46,080
Speaker 1: gonna say, oh yeah, we're gonna just put you on

571
00:37:46,080 --> 00:37:48,239
Speaker 1: a plan and take you there or you know, here

572
00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:51,080
Speaker 1: you go, We're gonna drive you ourselves to Peory, Illinois.

573
00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:54,000
Speaker 1: I don't think it's going to happen. But to be

574
00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:57,960
Speaker 1: dropped off in a major city, for a lot of them,

575
00:37:58,000 --> 00:37:59,640
Speaker 1: that's probably gonna be a good thing. And if it's

576
00:37:59,680 --> 00:38:02,640
Speaker 1: not the thing, the only reason would be that they

577
00:38:02,680 --> 00:38:05,920
Speaker 1: have family in this country already and that they're scamming

578
00:38:05,920 --> 00:38:09,080
Speaker 1: the system, right, I mean, if they're true refugees, you

579
00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:11,279
Speaker 1: would think that this wasn't about trying to link up

580
00:38:11,280 --> 00:38:13,200
Speaker 1: with people in this country that they already know who

581
00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:17,879
Speaker 1: are here. They're not true refugees though, so we it's

582
00:38:17,920 --> 00:38:19,719
Speaker 1: not clear how many. I don't I don't think they

583
00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:22,960
Speaker 1: even tracked this, how many of them have an internal

584
00:38:23,400 --> 00:38:25,520
Speaker 1: sponsor ready to go for them when they arrive. I

585
00:38:25,520 --> 00:38:27,040
Speaker 1: would guess a lot of them do. But for those

586
00:38:27,080 --> 00:38:28,880
Speaker 1: that don't, yeah, you probably do want to get dropped

587
00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:32,799
Speaker 1: off in Los Angeles or San Francisco or you know,

588
00:38:33,080 --> 00:38:35,040
Speaker 1: places that are close to the border like that that

589
00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:39,359
Speaker 1: are sanctuary cities. Why doesn't Los Angeles get excited about

590
00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:42,480
Speaker 1: this prospect? Now? I saw share? But what was it?

591
00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:44,399
Speaker 1: The chair over the weekend tweeted, I got I gotta

592
00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:47,160
Speaker 1: find this real quick because this was this was kind

593
00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:51,080
Speaker 1: of a wow wow moment because the President, President Trump

594
00:38:53,680 --> 00:39:00,520
Speaker 1: responded to this share said something about sanctuary cities that

595
00:39:00,640 --> 00:39:06,120
Speaker 1: got retwet tweeted and people were very by the President

596
00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:09,600
Speaker 1: United States. Here you go? What was that? What was

597
00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:12,359
Speaker 1: the tweet mic that she said? Okay, here you go?

598
00:39:12,760 --> 00:39:16,240
Speaker 1: This is share the sent do you do you believe

599
00:39:16,239 --> 00:39:20,360
Speaker 1: your life after live? That is not a good share impersonation.

600
00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:25,080
Speaker 1: But you know what I'm you know, I'm talking about believe.

601
00:39:26,160 --> 00:39:29,839
Speaker 1: It's it's kind of an I'm getting closer. I'm getting closer. Yeah, yeah,

602
00:39:29,920 --> 00:39:32,040
Speaker 1: make fun of me all you want. Yeah, I know

603
00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:36,120
Speaker 1: I deserve that. That sounds that sound a little bit

604
00:39:36,160 --> 00:39:39,359
Speaker 1: like like somebody from the Muppets? Do you believe your

605
00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:44,800
Speaker 1: life after live? But Share tweeted out, I understand helping

606
00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:49,239
Speaker 1: struggling immigrants, but my city, Los Angeles isn't taking care

607
00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:52,240
Speaker 1: of its own. What about the fifty thousand plus citizens

608
00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:55,480
Speaker 1: who live on the streets, people who live below the

609
00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:58,839
Speaker 1: poverty line and are hungry. If my state can't take

610
00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:01,160
Speaker 1: care of its own men, our vets, how can it

611
00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:04,759
Speaker 1: take care of more? Hold on, hold the phone, Hold

612
00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:08,400
Speaker 1: on a second here, whoa whoa whoa nice shooting? Share?

613
00:40:09,800 --> 00:40:13,440
Speaker 1: What do you mean that we could have a conversation

614
00:40:13,560 --> 00:40:16,000
Speaker 1: about taking care of those already in this country that

615
00:40:16,040 --> 00:40:19,799
Speaker 1: are poor and needy before bringing an additional million poor

616
00:40:19,800 --> 00:40:22,279
Speaker 1: and needy people into the country who are coming in

617
00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:25,160
Speaker 1: illegally and aren't Americans in any way, shape or form.

618
00:40:27,040 --> 00:40:30,840
Speaker 1: Is that and is that a conversation we could at

619
00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:33,680
Speaker 1: least have. Well that's a racist, right, That's what they'll say.

620
00:40:33,719 --> 00:40:37,360
Speaker 1: That's what the left will say. But because of the

621
00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:41,399
Speaker 1: back last to this, it should it should surprise no

622
00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:46,279
Speaker 1: one that Share because the president, President Trump retweeted her,

623
00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:52,719
Speaker 1: and now she's walking it. She's walking it back. Those

624
00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:55,759
Speaker 1: who can must take Oh no, I'm sorry, this is

625
00:40:55,760 --> 00:41:00,400
Speaker 1: a pardon me. She changed her mind from US September

626
00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:05,880
Speaker 1: twenty seventeen tweet, So she's actually shifted towards Trump, not

627
00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:08,640
Speaker 1: away from Trump. Pardon me. And here's what she said

628
00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:12,120
Speaker 1: in seven twenty seventeen. Those who can must take a

629
00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:15,319
Speaker 1: dreamer into their home and protect them. I'm ready to

630
00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:20,560
Speaker 1: do this, and others of my business will do the same. Sanctuary, sanctuary,

631
00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:30,239
Speaker 1: she says. But Share, the singer of share Fame, she

632
00:41:31,120 --> 00:41:35,920
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, has a different, different approach to this,

633
00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:41,560
Speaker 1: recognizes that, oh, that's right, maybe adding to the roles

634
00:41:41,560 --> 00:41:45,000
Speaker 1: of those who need government assistance when we already have

635
00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:48,040
Speaker 1: quite a poverty problem in Los Angeles right now. If

636
00:41:48,040 --> 00:41:51,160
Speaker 1: you spend any time there. Last time I was there,

637
00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:54,160
Speaker 1: I saw it tent cities and people living in tents

638
00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:59,160
Speaker 1: all over the streets. It's unsanitary, it's dangerous. It is

639
00:41:59,320 --> 00:42:02,560
Speaker 1: a blight for the communities that have to deal with this.

640
00:42:02,600 --> 00:42:04,279
Speaker 1: I mean, you should not have people living on the

641
00:42:04,440 --> 00:42:10,799
Speaker 1: streets in cities made up of tents, you know, and cardboard,

642
00:42:11,239 --> 00:42:12,920
Speaker 1: But that's what you have in some parts of And

643
00:42:12,960 --> 00:42:16,400
Speaker 1: these are people that are in some cases choosing, choosing

644
00:42:16,440 --> 00:42:21,000
Speaker 1: to be homeless, choosing to live a life on the streets.

645
00:42:21,040 --> 00:42:23,879
Speaker 1: It's not just people that are down on their luck.

646
00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:27,920
Speaker 1: There is this decision to be a vagrant that is

647
00:42:29,160 --> 00:42:31,840
Speaker 1: more and more a thing. I'm not saying it's a

648
00:42:31,880 --> 00:42:34,640
Speaker 1: majority of them, but there are people that are choosing

649
00:42:34,680 --> 00:42:39,960
Speaker 1: a life of vagrancy. Then there was all this challenge

650
00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:42,680
Speaker 1: back to the sanctuary cities and the transferring of them.

651
00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:44,759
Speaker 1: There was this whole challenge about whether or not this

652
00:42:44,840 --> 00:42:46,840
Speaker 1: is legal. And I just I like it that Tom Homan,

653
00:42:46,840 --> 00:42:50,360
Speaker 1: who was the former acting ICE director, every time I

654
00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:52,520
Speaker 1: see him in Fox News in the Great Room, he's like, Buck,

655
00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:54,080
Speaker 1: I loved your head. I'm like, Tom, that's so funny

656
00:42:54,080 --> 00:42:57,080
Speaker 1: because I loved your head right before. We see this

657
00:42:57,120 --> 00:43:01,200
Speaker 1: issue very eye to eye, probably because we both. I mean,

658
00:43:01,239 --> 00:43:04,160
Speaker 1: he knows a tremendous amount of issues he's been handling

659
00:43:04,160 --> 00:43:07,319
Speaker 1: for decades. But we've been doing our deep dives into this.

660
00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:12,160
Speaker 1: And here's what Tom said about the challenges to the

661
00:43:12,360 --> 00:43:14,920
Speaker 1: legality of this whole situation. People are saying, oh, no,

662
00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:20,359
Speaker 1: you can't do that, it would be illegal. Well play

663
00:43:20,400 --> 00:43:23,800
Speaker 1: with eight. I don't understand what they're talking about. Legalities

664
00:43:23,800 --> 00:43:26,720
Speaker 1: because we already moved people. When I was the ICE director,

665
00:43:26,800 --> 00:43:29,880
Speaker 1: we moved people all of the country. ICE moves aliens

666
00:43:29,960 --> 00:43:32,640
Speaker 1: all of the country, different facilities in all fifty states.

667
00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:36,080
Speaker 1: And I tell you something, we're right now. We're moving

668
00:43:36,239 --> 00:43:38,759
Speaker 1: you know, a company alien children at government expense first

669
00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:41,400
Speaker 1: or moved to an h chess facility, and once they

670
00:43:41,440 --> 00:43:44,560
Speaker 1: find a parent sponsor at government expense, they're moving to

671
00:43:44,840 --> 00:43:48,080
Speaker 1: h Chess facity to reunite with a parent or sponsor.

672
00:43:48,440 --> 00:43:52,120
Speaker 1: Have to deal with the consequences of their failures and

673
00:43:52,160 --> 00:43:55,960
Speaker 1: their resistance. Administration Coigress has failed on this issue. The

674
00:43:56,080 --> 00:43:58,880
Speaker 1: reasons they're caravans at the boarder to begin with is

675
00:43:58,880 --> 00:44:02,200
Speaker 1: because Congress hasn't to loopholes in the law. Nancy Pelosi,

676
00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:05,720
Speaker 1: Governor Newsom, two people who've been pushing for WelCom borders

677
00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:08,600
Speaker 1: in California, such a welcoming state. I would think they'd

678
00:44:08,600 --> 00:44:13,239
Speaker 1: applaud this effort, saying they moved people all over the

679
00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:16,560
Speaker 1: all over the country, already spending a lot of money

680
00:44:16,640 --> 00:44:19,879
Speaker 1: doing it too. Why are the Democrats opposed to this?

681
00:44:21,120 --> 00:44:23,600
Speaker 1: Notice is a trend among the left, among the Democrats

682
00:44:23,640 --> 00:44:26,200
Speaker 1: that they say they're in favor of things until all

683
00:44:26,200 --> 00:44:27,480
Speaker 1: of a sudden you're going to give it to them,

684
00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:30,600
Speaker 1: and unless they can get out of it, unless it

685
00:44:30,640 --> 00:44:34,560
Speaker 1: doesn't apply to them, Oh well then they've got Then

686
00:44:34,600 --> 00:44:38,600
Speaker 1: they got a problem. Then they've got a problem. They

687
00:44:38,640 --> 00:44:40,160
Speaker 1: don't want to live under the rules they want to

688
00:44:40,160 --> 00:44:42,480
Speaker 1: make us live under. They don't want to pay the

689
00:44:42,520 --> 00:44:45,880
Speaker 1: taxes they want you to pay. They don't want to

690
00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:50,000
Speaker 1: have their schools overrun with you know, English as a

691
00:44:50,040 --> 00:44:53,600
Speaker 1: second language instruction and you know recently arrived to legals

692
00:44:53,600 --> 00:44:55,960
Speaker 1: who if there are from war torn countries or countries

693
00:44:55,960 --> 00:44:58,680
Speaker 1: with tremendous poverty and problems, are going to need additional

694
00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:03,120
Speaker 1: school resources, just the just a fact. You know, the

695
00:45:03,160 --> 00:45:07,719
Speaker 1: problems of crime and lawlessness that come to communities where

696
00:45:07,760 --> 00:45:11,320
Speaker 1: there's and you might say, well buck, but the overall numbers.

697
00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:14,520
Speaker 1: I want no MS thirteen gangsters in this country. I

698
00:45:14,560 --> 00:45:16,120
Speaker 1: want none. And I know that there are some who

699
00:45:16,160 --> 00:45:18,120
Speaker 1: are born here, are from here, but I don't want

700
00:45:18,160 --> 00:45:22,759
Speaker 1: any additional ones. This is why you have screening processes.

701
00:45:22,760 --> 00:45:25,359
Speaker 1: This is why immigration is a process a system. If

702
00:45:25,400 --> 00:45:28,960
Speaker 1: what the left beliefs about immigration now is true, someone

703
00:45:29,000 --> 00:45:30,360
Speaker 1: has to explain to me why we should have an

704
00:45:30,360 --> 00:45:33,799
Speaker 1: immigration system at all. If whoever shows up at our

705
00:45:33,840 --> 00:45:36,000
Speaker 1: border is worthy and a good person and should be

706
00:45:36,040 --> 00:45:39,200
Speaker 1: an American, which is a whole other step, right, we

707
00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:41,200
Speaker 1: should be brought into the American family. If anyone who

708
00:45:41,200 --> 00:45:43,839
Speaker 1: shows up at our border falls into that category, then

709
00:45:43,840 --> 00:45:45,640
Speaker 1: why have an immigration system at all? Why not just

710
00:45:45,680 --> 00:45:48,879
Speaker 1: have you know, why not have an open border? Left

711
00:45:48,960 --> 00:45:52,440
Speaker 1: has no answer for this. They just have accusations and taunts,

712
00:45:52,840 --> 00:45:55,120
Speaker 1: tell you you're racist, to tell you're a bad person.

713
00:45:55,880 --> 00:45:58,640
Speaker 1: And if you try to engage them on this issue,

714
00:45:58,920 --> 00:46:01,400
Speaker 1: you just hear talking phone talking points and then outrage

715
00:46:01,680 --> 00:46:05,120
Speaker 1: because intellectually their position is just untenable. It makes no sense,

716
00:46:05,160 --> 00:46:09,000
Speaker 1: It is self contradictory, and they don't want to accept it.

717
00:46:09,000 --> 00:46:16,440
Speaker 1: Their open borders, but they are bring the illegal earlier.

718
00:46:16,440 --> 00:46:18,320
Speaker 1: They call them the illegals. I call them the illegals.

719
00:46:18,320 --> 00:46:21,560
Speaker 1: They came across the border illegally. Will bring them to

720
00:46:21,960 --> 00:46:27,440
Speaker 1: sanctuary city areas and let that particular area take care

721
00:46:27,480 --> 00:46:29,719
Speaker 1: of it, whether it's a state or whatever it might be.

722
00:46:29,840 --> 00:46:32,560
Speaker 1: California certainly is always saying, oh, we want more people,

723
00:46:33,400 --> 00:46:35,879
Speaker 1: and they want more people in their sanctuary cities. Well

724
00:46:35,960 --> 00:46:37,759
Speaker 1: we'll give them more people. We can give them a lot.

725
00:46:37,800 --> 00:46:40,919
Speaker 1: We can give them an unlimited supply. And let's see

726
00:46:40,920 --> 00:46:43,120
Speaker 1: if they're so happy. They say we have open arms.

727
00:46:43,160 --> 00:46:45,000
Speaker 1: They're always saying they have open arms. Let's see if

728
00:46:45,000 --> 00:46:48,400
Speaker 1: they have open arms. And President Trump has managed to

729
00:46:49,719 --> 00:46:54,400
Speaker 1: troll the Democrats into refuting what you would think is

730
00:46:54,440 --> 00:46:56,719
Speaker 1: a mainstream position for them, which is that the more

731
00:46:56,880 --> 00:47:01,279
Speaker 1: the more sanctuary city immigrants legal immigrants you can gather

732
00:47:01,360 --> 00:47:05,960
Speaker 1: one place, the better they should. They should absolutely be

733
00:47:06,000 --> 00:47:08,640
Speaker 1: in favor of this, but they're not. In fact, they

734
00:47:08,880 --> 00:47:11,160
Speaker 1: are are claiming, as I just mentioned before the break,

735
00:47:11,200 --> 00:47:15,120
Speaker 1: that the issue here is one of legality that the

736
00:47:15,160 --> 00:47:17,480
Speaker 1: president can't do. It would be illegal for him to

737
00:47:17,560 --> 00:47:20,960
Speaker 1: do this. Play clip nine. This is Jerry Nadler, whose

738
00:47:21,040 --> 00:47:23,200
Speaker 1: legal analysis is terrible, but this is what he said.

739
00:47:23,480 --> 00:47:28,239
Speaker 1: The President has no right to spend money appropriated by

740
00:47:28,280 --> 00:47:31,960
Speaker 1: Congress for the purposes to ship immigrants solo over the country.

741
00:47:32,120 --> 00:47:35,640
Speaker 1: Nor is it right for the president to use immigrants

742
00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:39,600
Speaker 1: or people who are claiming political asylum as pawns in

743
00:47:40,239 --> 00:47:45,640
Speaker 1: a fight against political opponents. Why why are they being

744
00:47:45,719 --> 00:47:48,720
Speaker 1: used as pawns? Why aren't they a gift from Trump

745
00:47:48,719 --> 00:47:52,680
Speaker 1: directly to these actuary cities? What would be wrong with this.

746
00:47:53,680 --> 00:47:58,040
Speaker 1: Democrats never get to why they oppose it, what's the problem,

747
00:47:58,560 --> 00:48:01,520
Speaker 1: why would this scare people? Right? Democrats are very convinced

748
00:48:01,520 --> 00:48:04,400
Speaker 1: that there's no downside from any of this, so it

749
00:48:04,400 --> 00:48:07,520
Speaker 1: should be fine, it should be great. And as for

750
00:48:07,600 --> 00:48:10,759
Speaker 1: no right to ship immigrants around the country. This as

751
00:48:10,760 --> 00:48:13,399
Speaker 1: we mentioned before Tom Holm, and this happens constantly. They're

752
00:48:13,400 --> 00:48:17,120
Speaker 1: shipping immigrants all over the country. This is what an

753
00:48:17,120 --> 00:48:21,600
Speaker 1: immigration and custom enforcement has to do. They're they're spending

754
00:48:21,600 --> 00:48:24,440
Speaker 1: all this money reuniting kids with their parents. What they say,

755
00:48:24,520 --> 00:48:28,480
Speaker 1: what it really is is parents that came here illegally

756
00:48:28,480 --> 00:48:32,319
Speaker 1: in many cases are now in a position where their

757
00:48:32,360 --> 00:48:34,720
Speaker 1: kids shows up at the border. The kid gets essentially

758
00:48:34,719 --> 00:48:38,680
Speaker 1: a taxpayer funded ferry service to take him or her

759
00:48:39,160 --> 00:48:41,279
Speaker 1: to the illegal parent anywhere in the country, got to

760
00:48:41,280 --> 00:48:44,920
Speaker 1: reunite them with the family. No questions asked about that.

761
00:48:47,040 --> 00:48:54,200
Speaker 1: It's astonishing, it really is. They have no real response

762
00:48:54,239 --> 00:48:55,640
Speaker 1: to any of this from the left other than the

763
00:48:55,760 --> 00:48:58,719
Speaker 1: usual stuff about how it's you know, we're so racist,

764
00:48:58,760 --> 00:49:02,680
Speaker 1: we're so terrible. Um. You know, the people take the

765
00:49:02,680 --> 00:49:07,000
Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders approach, which is just to trash the president.

766
00:49:07,080 --> 00:49:09,080
Speaker 1: You know, if he's all these things that they say

767
00:49:09,120 --> 00:49:12,319
Speaker 1: he is. Why can't they make better arguments about why

768
00:49:12,320 --> 00:49:15,080
Speaker 1: Trump is wrong? Why did his always devolve into this

769
00:49:15,160 --> 00:49:19,520
Speaker 1: name calling? You know, I have had so many disagreements

770
00:49:19,520 --> 00:49:21,799
Speaker 1: with Democrats. I mean, I have disagreement with Democrats every day.

771
00:49:21,840 --> 00:49:24,240
Speaker 1: It's what I do. But I'm not always just running

772
00:49:24,239 --> 00:49:26,440
Speaker 1: around saying how they're a bunch of bigots and racists

773
00:49:26,480 --> 00:49:28,880
Speaker 1: and this and that. I mean, their policies are crazy,

774
00:49:28,960 --> 00:49:32,000
Speaker 1: so I call them crazy. But you know, here's a

775
00:49:32,080 --> 00:49:36,480
Speaker 1: taste of how Bernie responds to the president and how

776
00:49:36,520 --> 00:49:38,799
Speaker 1: he refers to the president. I still think Bernie's gonna

777
00:49:38,800 --> 00:49:41,560
Speaker 1: be the Democrat nominee play for can I understand why

778
00:49:41,600 --> 00:49:44,439
Speaker 1: people voted for Trump. I got that, But the sad

779
00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:47,920
Speaker 1: trip is, and I'm not the first person to save us.

780
00:49:48,560 --> 00:49:52,440
Speaker 1: We have a president who he is a pathological lawyer,

781
00:49:54,560 --> 00:49:59,480
Speaker 1: lawyers my favorite day. I mean, the media has stopped

782
00:49:59,480 --> 00:50:04,000
Speaker 1: invented thousands of lies that he has pulled, and he

783
00:50:04,120 --> 00:50:15,320
Speaker 1: lied during the campaign. That's right, that a sexist, all racist,

784
00:50:15,760 --> 00:50:21,440
Speaker 1: all texist, a homophobe, all of these things. Such a

785
00:50:21,520 --> 00:50:23,440
Speaker 1: focus on the name calling, why not a focus on

786
00:50:23,480 --> 00:50:28,360
Speaker 1: the policies. Here, here's why Bernie Sanders said, it's understandable

787
00:50:28,360 --> 00:50:30,319
Speaker 1: why people voted for Trump. Here's one reason why they

788
00:50:30,400 --> 00:50:34,719
Speaker 1: voted for Trump because they know that the federal government overall,

789
00:50:35,840 --> 00:50:39,040
Speaker 1: both parties, and the media have been lying to them

790
00:50:39,040 --> 00:50:43,600
Speaker 1: about immigration for for years, if not decades, just lying

791
00:50:43,600 --> 00:50:47,560
Speaker 1: about it. It's always it's always, you know, illegal immigration specifically,

792
00:50:47,560 --> 00:50:49,480
Speaker 1: it's always a good thing. It's great. We need more

793
00:50:49,520 --> 00:50:51,440
Speaker 1: of it, no problem, we got it under control. We're

794
00:50:51,440 --> 00:50:54,839
Speaker 1: deporting a lot of people. All this is nonsense. There

795
00:50:54,840 --> 00:50:57,480
Speaker 1: are eleven million illegals in the country. No, no serious

796
00:50:57,520 --> 00:51:01,880
Speaker 1: person believes this. Zo Well put the number. If you

797
00:51:01,880 --> 00:51:07,040
Speaker 1: think that survey data, voluntary survey data, is sufficient to

798
00:51:07,040 --> 00:51:09,520
Speaker 1: tell you how many people are hiding in this country illegally,

799
00:51:09,520 --> 00:51:12,520
Speaker 1: they're not really hiding, but living in the country illegally.

800
00:51:14,840 --> 00:51:17,000
Speaker 1: I think that there's a chance, and it depends on

801
00:51:17,120 --> 00:51:21,000
Speaker 1: how the base really feels about Trump that he sails

802
00:51:21,040 --> 00:51:26,080
Speaker 1: to reelection in part because the Democrats are so deeply

803
00:51:26,400 --> 00:51:30,040
Speaker 1: un serious on the issue immigration and the crisis at

804
00:51:30,080 --> 00:51:33,400
Speaker 1: the border is so clearly something that they are in

805
00:51:33,560 --> 00:51:39,000
Speaker 1: favor of, that they advocate for that the American people,

806
00:51:39,080 --> 00:51:43,680
Speaker 1: at least those who aren't completely ideologically aligned with the

807
00:51:43,719 --> 00:51:47,400
Speaker 1: far left and with the left wing aims of the Democrats,

808
00:51:47,400 --> 00:51:48,840
Speaker 1: that the American people are just going to say, I

809
00:51:49,080 --> 00:51:51,400
Speaker 1: can't do this. You know, if they're not going to

810
00:51:51,440 --> 00:51:54,840
Speaker 1: secure the border, we can't put them in power. We

811
00:51:54,880 --> 00:51:58,360
Speaker 1: can't put Democrats in charge. Even if Trump is imperfect

812
00:51:58,400 --> 00:52:00,600
Speaker 1: on the issue, at least he's saying the right things.

813
00:52:00,800 --> 00:52:04,279
Speaker 1: At least he's trying to do something. What Democrats are

814
00:52:04,280 --> 00:52:06,760
Speaker 1: trying to do is continue the crisis, make things worse,

815
00:52:09,000 --> 00:52:14,000
Speaker 1: and that, for me, could be a deciding factor I

816
00:52:14,040 --> 00:52:17,319
Speaker 1: think in Trump's reelection. I mean not just for me,

817
00:52:17,360 --> 00:52:19,720
Speaker 1: but I mean that in my analysis of this could

818
00:52:19,719 --> 00:52:23,920
Speaker 1: be why Trump wins. If the economy is strong and

819
00:52:24,040 --> 00:52:27,320
Speaker 1: the Democrats just continue this posture of being de facto

820
00:52:27,400 --> 00:52:30,200
Speaker 1: open borders. I don't see how you could have a

821
00:52:30,239 --> 00:52:32,840
Speaker 1: Democrat defeat president of the next election cycle. I just

822
00:52:32,920 --> 00:52:37,680
Speaker 1: don't see it. Do we get a massive recession, I

823
00:52:37,760 --> 00:52:40,480
Speaker 1: keep saying that's gonna be that's the game change. Remember

824
00:52:40,520 --> 00:52:45,560
Speaker 1: that happened. People forget that Obama got very lucky. You

825
00:52:45,640 --> 00:52:47,799
Speaker 1: had an eight years of a Republican president and then

826
00:52:47,840 --> 00:52:54,000
Speaker 1: a huge recession and one that was really felt at

827
00:52:54,000 --> 00:52:56,960
Speaker 1: the time like it could be catastrophic financially and economically,

828
00:52:57,680 --> 00:53:01,560
Speaker 1: and Obama came in in with his hope and change

829
00:53:01,640 --> 00:53:04,239
Speaker 1: and all this stuff, and as a result, we had

830
00:53:04,280 --> 00:53:09,560
Speaker 1: the worst recovery from a recession since the Great Depression.

831
00:53:10,080 --> 00:53:12,600
Speaker 1: As much as Democrats want to pretend that the stimulus

832
00:53:12,640 --> 00:53:18,200
Speaker 1: was some great savior of the country, it's just Obama

833
00:53:18,320 --> 00:53:20,320
Speaker 1: was not a good steward of the recovery, nor was

834
00:53:20,360 --> 00:53:22,560
Speaker 1: he a good steward of the economy overall. But he

835
00:53:22,600 --> 00:53:26,719
Speaker 1: did get lucky. From an election perspective, the Republicans have

836
00:53:26,760 --> 00:53:28,279
Speaker 1: been in power and then all of a sudden things

837
00:53:28,280 --> 00:53:30,759
Speaker 1: look pretty bad and people decided they wanted something new.

838
00:53:30,800 --> 00:53:34,640
Speaker 1: If that happens, Bernie Sanders saying, you're gonna get free distant,

839
00:53:34,680 --> 00:53:38,600
Speaker 1: free that, free college, free healthcare, free cookie, show up

840
00:53:38,640 --> 00:53:40,400
Speaker 1: at the show up at a rally, get a free cookie.

841
00:53:41,480 --> 00:53:44,120
Speaker 1: Daniell probably be able to He'll probably be able to win.

842
00:53:44,560 --> 00:53:50,920
Speaker 1: That's my real concern. I don't think Congress, particularly not

843
00:53:51,040 --> 00:53:54,080
Speaker 1: this group of congressmen and women, are smart enough to

844
00:53:54,200 --> 00:53:57,560
Speaker 1: look through the thousands of pages that I would assume

845
00:53:57,640 --> 00:54:00,759
Speaker 1: that President Trump's taxes will be. My guess is most

846
00:54:00,800 --> 00:54:03,280
Speaker 1: of them don't do their own taxes. And I certainly

847
00:54:03,320 --> 00:54:06,480
Speaker 1: don't trust them to look through the decades of success

848
00:54:06,520 --> 00:54:10,360
Speaker 1: that the president has and determine anything. Democrats still fired

849
00:54:10,440 --> 00:54:15,160
Speaker 1: up over President Trump's taxes. But it's leading nowhere, folks.

850
00:54:14,680 --> 00:54:18,600
Speaker 1: That's a pretty confident prediction from yours, truly. But I

851
00:54:18,680 --> 00:54:21,200
Speaker 1: care about our taxes, as in I had to go

852
00:54:21,360 --> 00:54:23,760
Speaker 1: and stand in line today and deal with the Post

853
00:54:23,800 --> 00:54:27,560
Speaker 1: Office to make sure that Uncle Sam is getting enough

854
00:54:28,080 --> 00:54:33,120
Speaker 1: of my stuff. And I just find it very, very

855
00:54:33,160 --> 00:54:36,359
Speaker 1: frustrating that here we are paying all the taxes we do,

856
00:54:36,480 --> 00:54:39,960
Speaker 1: but the tax cut happened. There's some other stuff, taxes, taxes.

857
00:54:40,040 --> 00:54:44,280
Speaker 1: Who we turn to for insight on this matter, Matty

858
00:54:44,400 --> 00:54:47,920
Speaker 1: Duppler aka Dupples to me, at least she is with

859
00:54:48,000 --> 00:54:51,680
Speaker 1: us now. She is the president of Forward Strategies and

860
00:54:51,760 --> 00:54:56,239
Speaker 1: a tax wonk walk extraordinaire, Matty. Great to have you back,

861
00:54:56,920 --> 00:54:58,719
Speaker 1: Hey Bock, So you're down to the wire. How one

862
00:54:58,719 --> 00:55:02,200
Speaker 1: of those people have silent to minute? I? Well, you know,

863
00:55:02,239 --> 00:55:04,000
Speaker 1: I filed for an extension, but I still had to

864
00:55:04,000 --> 00:55:08,200
Speaker 1: write a big fat check. So what should what should

865
00:55:08,239 --> 00:55:10,120
Speaker 1: we think about where we are right now? Matt? I

866
00:55:10,120 --> 00:55:13,560
Speaker 1: mean the President's tax cut. He talks about it a

867
00:55:13,560 --> 00:55:17,080
Speaker 1: lot GOP's all excited about it. But I'll put aside

868
00:55:17,120 --> 00:55:18,799
Speaker 1: for a moment that we didn't elect Trump just to

869
00:55:18,840 --> 00:55:20,960
Speaker 1: cut taxes. I mean, that's one of many things you

870
00:55:21,040 --> 00:55:23,560
Speaker 1: wanted him to do. But how good a tax cut

871
00:55:23,640 --> 00:55:25,879
Speaker 1: was this really because it feels like I'm still giving

872
00:55:25,880 --> 00:55:27,880
Speaker 1: them the money, way too much money to the government.

873
00:55:28,560 --> 00:55:30,520
Speaker 1: You're still giving way too much to the money to

874
00:55:30,560 --> 00:55:33,080
Speaker 1: the government, no doubt about it. But but this was

875
00:55:33,520 --> 00:55:36,560
Speaker 1: the first time that we have had wholesale tax reform

876
00:55:36,880 --> 00:55:39,640
Speaker 1: in a generation. Thirty one year that took to reform

877
00:55:39,680 --> 00:55:41,839
Speaker 1: the tax code, and Trump, President Trump was the one

878
00:55:41,840 --> 00:55:43,160
Speaker 1: who was able to do it, So you have to

879
00:55:43,160 --> 00:55:45,960
Speaker 1: give him credit there. Now, over the last eighteen months

880
00:55:45,960 --> 00:55:49,080
Speaker 1: since the debate on tax reform started, there has been

881
00:55:49,640 --> 00:55:52,640
Speaker 1: so much at missinformation out there that it's pretty much

882
00:55:52,840 --> 00:55:57,040
Speaker 1: borderline criminal how much the establishment press got it wrong

883
00:55:57,080 --> 00:55:58,919
Speaker 1: on the tax cut. You thought today in the front

884
00:55:58,960 --> 00:56:01,640
Speaker 1: pages of the New York Time Time talking about how

885
00:56:01,680 --> 00:56:04,680
Speaker 1: there was a lot of misleading data out there, But

886
00:56:04,800 --> 00:56:08,160
Speaker 1: in reality, the majority of Americans received the tax cut.

887
00:56:08,160 --> 00:56:11,160
Speaker 1: And since today is the first time Americans are filing

888
00:56:11,200 --> 00:56:13,840
Speaker 1: their taxes under the new code, they need to understand

889
00:56:13,880 --> 00:56:16,200
Speaker 1: that after months of being lied to, four out of

890
00:56:16,239 --> 00:56:18,640
Speaker 1: five taxpayers in the United States got a tax cut

891
00:56:18,800 --> 00:56:20,759
Speaker 1: as a result of the Tax Cutting Jobs Act. And

892
00:56:20,840 --> 00:56:22,759
Speaker 1: you hear a lot, especially now that we're going into

893
00:56:22,760 --> 00:56:26,360
Speaker 1: another presidential cycle, about Americans paying their fair share, we

894
00:56:26,440 --> 00:56:28,799
Speaker 1: need more taxes on rich people. But what the Tax

895
00:56:28,880 --> 00:56:31,840
Speaker 1: Cut and JOBSAC did was it actually increase the share

896
00:56:31,960 --> 00:56:34,720
Speaker 1: the burden on the higher income earners in this country.

897
00:56:34,760 --> 00:56:37,880
Speaker 1: It increased the progressivity in the tax code. And even

898
00:56:37,880 --> 00:56:40,400
Speaker 1: though those high income earners still got a tax cut,

899
00:56:40,680 --> 00:56:42,480
Speaker 1: the people who are benefiting the most are those who

900
00:56:42,520 --> 00:56:44,600
Speaker 1: are in the middle income brackets because they were the

901
00:56:44,600 --> 00:56:46,560
Speaker 1: ones who had the largest share of their after tax

902
00:56:46,680 --> 00:56:50,719
Speaker 1: income increased thanks for the Tax Cutting Jobs Act. If

903
00:56:50,760 --> 00:56:53,560
Speaker 1: you make fifty thousand dollars a year in this country

904
00:56:54,040 --> 00:56:56,400
Speaker 1: roughly speak. Now, I know there's deductions and blob the

905
00:56:56,480 --> 00:57:00,239
Speaker 1: blot all that, but roughly speaking, how much more hash

906
00:57:00,280 --> 00:57:02,239
Speaker 1: do you have in your pocket for the year this

907
00:57:02,320 --> 00:57:05,799
Speaker 1: past year twenty eighteen because of Trump's tax cut. So back,

908
00:57:05,840 --> 00:57:09,480
Speaker 1: the typical American family of four is making about seventy

909
00:57:09,480 --> 00:57:12,239
Speaker 1: two grand a year in this country and they over

910
00:57:12,360 --> 00:57:14,839
Speaker 1: two thousand. Yeah, they are making over They are over

911
00:57:14,880 --> 00:57:17,680
Speaker 1: two thousand dollars richer as a result of the tax

912
00:57:17,760 --> 00:57:21,040
Speaker 1: cut in jobs. And that's not just because their tax

913
00:57:21,120 --> 00:57:23,960
Speaker 1: rate was reduced, which is true for income earners across

914
00:57:24,000 --> 00:57:27,040
Speaker 1: the scale. It's also because they doubled the child tax

915
00:57:27,040 --> 00:57:30,840
Speaker 1: credit and the eligibility for the child tax credit was expanded,

916
00:57:30,880 --> 00:57:32,920
Speaker 1: So not only do you have a bigger child tax credit,

917
00:57:33,200 --> 00:57:35,200
Speaker 1: you might be eligible for it when you weren't able

918
00:57:35,200 --> 00:57:38,240
Speaker 1: to cash it in it Before the AMT, the alternative

919
00:57:38,280 --> 00:57:42,000
Speaker 1: minimum tax, which is essentially a double tax structure where

920
00:57:42,080 --> 00:57:44,360
Speaker 1: most tax filers had to do their taxes twice and

921
00:57:44,360 --> 00:57:48,000
Speaker 1: then pay the highest number of their taxes, that was

922
00:57:48,040 --> 00:57:50,480
Speaker 1: diminished a little bit. Five million people fell out of

923
00:57:50,520 --> 00:57:53,920
Speaker 1: the AMT, and as a result they now have more

924
00:57:53,960 --> 00:57:57,640
Speaker 1: tax credits and deductions that they can take. Other parts

925
00:57:57,640 --> 00:57:59,400
Speaker 1: of the task Coude that you don't hear a lot about,

926
00:57:59,440 --> 00:58:02,880
Speaker 1: but our really important expansion of five twenty nine savings accounts.

927
00:58:02,960 --> 00:58:05,920
Speaker 1: This allows families to use tax free savings not just

928
00:58:06,040 --> 00:58:09,120
Speaker 1: for college, but for primary and secondary education. As you know,

929
00:58:09,160 --> 00:58:11,520
Speaker 1: we've got a labor shortage in this country, we've got

930
00:58:11,520 --> 00:58:15,439
Speaker 1: a training epidemic in this country. Allowing families to use

931
00:58:15,520 --> 00:58:19,240
Speaker 1: money for diverse education needs. It's certainly a way to

932
00:58:19,240 --> 00:58:22,160
Speaker 1: help the average American family in this country. And you know,

933
00:58:22,200 --> 00:58:23,720
Speaker 1: you don't hear a lot about the ways of this

934
00:58:23,840 --> 00:58:26,320
Speaker 1: tax code help that average American family, because we have

935
00:58:26,400 --> 00:58:29,120
Speaker 1: to remember, Democrats did not vote for this tax bill.

936
00:58:29,240 --> 00:58:31,680
Speaker 1: Not a single Democrat could say, yes, I want to

937
00:58:31,720 --> 00:58:34,280
Speaker 1: cut race for the every American, I want to cut

938
00:58:34,360 --> 00:58:37,560
Speaker 1: rates at every level of the income tax code. I

939
00:58:37,560 --> 00:58:40,919
Speaker 1: want to give a double child tax credit, I want

940
00:58:40,960 --> 00:58:44,040
Speaker 1: to expand the eligibility for the child tax cred and

941
00:58:44,040 --> 00:58:46,600
Speaker 1: the use of five twenty nine. Not a single Democrat

942
00:58:46,600 --> 00:58:47,920
Speaker 1: could say that that was a good move for the

943
00:58:47,920 --> 00:58:50,560
Speaker 1: American people. I think that the American people will remember that,

944
00:58:50,840 --> 00:58:53,160
Speaker 1: particularly today if they're like you, waiting in line to

945
00:58:53,200 --> 00:58:55,640
Speaker 1: write a check to the government and not particularly pleased

946
00:58:55,640 --> 00:59:00,760
Speaker 1: about it. The corporate tax cut was how important and

947
00:59:00,760 --> 00:59:03,440
Speaker 1: how effective? Because what you hear and I've been treated

948
00:59:03,480 --> 00:59:04,960
Speaker 1: to a lot of this in the last few weeks

949
00:59:05,400 --> 00:59:07,720
Speaker 1: on the set of Rising, where we have a bunch

950
00:59:07,720 --> 00:59:10,400
Speaker 1: of Democrat Marxists who come on to talk about how

951
00:59:10,400 --> 00:59:13,240
Speaker 1: this was all just for the rich people. What do

952
00:59:13,360 --> 00:59:16,040
Speaker 1: you say to those who claim that the corporate tax

953
00:59:16,120 --> 00:59:19,080
Speaker 1: cut was just giving fat cats more cash and doesn't

954
00:59:19,080 --> 00:59:23,360
Speaker 1: help average Americans. I find this argument to be so

955
00:59:23,480 --> 00:59:28,920
Speaker 1: interesting because you can't look around any corner without economic

956
00:59:29,000 --> 00:59:31,600
Speaker 1: data that just proves it. Now, the President was very

957
00:59:31,600 --> 00:59:34,440
Speaker 1: clear when the tax bill was being negotiated. He had

958
00:59:34,480 --> 00:59:37,160
Speaker 1: two major objectives with getting it done. One was delivering

959
00:59:37,160 --> 00:59:39,440
Speaker 1: a middle class tax cut. The other was making the

960
00:59:39,520 --> 00:59:42,439
Speaker 1: United States competitive. Again. We had the highest corporate tax

961
00:59:42,520 --> 00:59:44,680
Speaker 1: rate in the developed world, and we were trying to

962
00:59:44,680 --> 00:59:47,560
Speaker 1: compete with countries that had cut their corporate tax rates

963
00:59:47,560 --> 00:59:49,960
Speaker 1: so much that they were ten percentage points below where

964
00:59:50,000 --> 00:59:54,120
Speaker 1: the American rate was. Not only that American companies repeatalized

965
00:59:54,160 --> 00:59:56,160
Speaker 1: whenever they earned money overseas and try to bring it

966
00:59:56,200 --> 00:59:58,360
Speaker 1: back because we were one of the only countries where

967
00:59:58,360 --> 01:00:01,560
Speaker 1: we forced companies to pay taxes twice on those profits.

968
01:00:01,640 --> 01:00:04,040
Speaker 1: Tax cutting jobs that got rid of that. It creates

969
01:00:04,040 --> 01:00:06,560
Speaker 1: a more competitive environment by lowering that corporate tax rate

970
01:00:06,600 --> 01:00:09,120
Speaker 1: to twenty one percent, And the result of that is

971
01:00:09,120 --> 01:00:11,640
Speaker 1: what we hear about every month when we're talking about

972
01:00:11,720 --> 01:00:15,000
Speaker 1: jobs numbers. And the Bureau of Labor Statistics releases their

973
01:00:15,080 --> 01:00:17,840
Speaker 1: report at the first Fronday Friday of every month. In

974
01:00:17,920 --> 01:00:20,280
Speaker 1: twenty eighteen, for the first time, in ten years, the

975
01:00:20,320 --> 01:00:24,000
Speaker 1: average American worker finally started to see a pay increase.

976
01:00:24,040 --> 01:00:27,800
Speaker 1: And that's because when you reduce those barriers on corporate profits,

977
01:00:28,280 --> 01:00:31,160
Speaker 1: corporations then can take that money and invest it back

978
01:00:31,200 --> 01:00:34,080
Speaker 1: into their companies as a means of making their workers

979
01:00:34,120 --> 01:00:37,120
Speaker 1: more productive. When workers are more productive, they are allowed

980
01:00:37,160 --> 01:00:39,640
Speaker 1: to demand more labor, more value for their labor, and

981
01:00:39,680 --> 01:00:42,160
Speaker 1: they are paid more. So that's why you're seeing wages

982
01:00:42,280 --> 01:00:44,440
Speaker 1: rise now. And that's why you had not seen wages

983
01:00:44,520 --> 01:00:47,640
Speaker 1: rise even though the economy has started to expand the

984
01:00:47,720 --> 01:00:51,960
Speaker 1: beginning ten years ago. This was a very secular expansion

985
01:00:52,040 --> 01:00:55,560
Speaker 1: in recovery because workers did not see their wages rise

986
01:00:55,640 --> 01:00:58,760
Speaker 1: at all, because we still have that corporate tax rate

987
01:00:58,800 --> 01:01:02,320
Speaker 1: that created so much obstruction to growth that workers cann't

988
01:01:02,360 --> 01:01:04,080
Speaker 1: get their piece of the pie and not for enough

989
01:01:04,160 --> 01:01:06,280
Speaker 1: in bucks. The people who are benefiting the most are

990
01:01:06,280 --> 01:01:08,520
Speaker 1: the bottom ten percent of those workers. They are the

991
01:01:08,560 --> 01:01:11,560
Speaker 1: ones who are seeing their wages rise faster than any

992
01:01:11,600 --> 01:01:16,040
Speaker 1: other cohort who in that economic picture, their wages are

993
01:01:16,120 --> 01:01:18,920
Speaker 1: rising faster than they have since two thousand, that's almost

994
01:01:18,920 --> 01:01:21,840
Speaker 1: a twenty year gap, well before we've seen that kind

995
01:01:21,840 --> 01:01:23,680
Speaker 1: of rate of increase. So for the people who are

996
01:01:23,680 --> 01:01:25,919
Speaker 1: coming on rising, who are telling you that it's only

997
01:01:25,960 --> 01:01:28,280
Speaker 1: the fatcasts on Wall Street who are getting rich. They

998
01:01:28,280 --> 01:01:30,520
Speaker 1: are not paying attention to the economic data. They are

999
01:01:30,560 --> 01:01:33,000
Speaker 1: not paying attention to the average American and their story

1000
01:01:33,040 --> 01:01:35,400
Speaker 1: that's being told across this country. And they better wake

1001
01:01:35,480 --> 01:01:37,240
Speaker 1: up because they keep ignoring that. What they're going to

1002
01:01:37,320 --> 01:01:41,640
Speaker 1: do is they're going to fuel another I think, embrace

1003
01:01:42,120 --> 01:01:46,520
Speaker 1: of a Trump presidency. Whatever happened to real tax simplification?

1004
01:01:47,120 --> 01:01:49,360
Speaker 1: Why is it that the tax code is still over

1005
01:01:49,440 --> 01:01:53,240
Speaker 1: seventy thousand pages. Ted Cruz was campaigning on doing your

1006
01:01:53,240 --> 01:01:56,280
Speaker 1: taxes on a postage card or postage whatever you call it.

1007
01:01:56,280 --> 01:01:59,960
Speaker 1: A what do you send people with the postcard? Yeah,

1008
01:02:00,120 --> 01:02:03,520
Speaker 1: thank you? A postcard English not really my first language.

1009
01:02:03,520 --> 01:02:07,120
Speaker 1: Apparently on a postcard. Trump said, simplification is going to happen.

1010
01:02:08,360 --> 01:02:10,920
Speaker 1: I understand that there's been some collapsing of rates and such,

1011
01:02:10,960 --> 01:02:12,720
Speaker 1: But the tax code, as far as I understand it

1012
01:02:12,760 --> 01:02:15,400
Speaker 1: is still tens of thousands of pages. Why why can't

1013
01:02:15,400 --> 01:02:17,640
Speaker 1: we get a tax code that's like two pages, Maddie

1014
01:02:17,680 --> 01:02:20,880
Speaker 1: or one right? It is still far too complex. There

1015
01:02:20,920 --> 01:02:24,920
Speaker 1: have been strides made in making it less complex. On

1016
01:02:24,960 --> 01:02:27,840
Speaker 1: the individual side. You see that with now nine out

1017
01:02:27,840 --> 01:02:30,840
Speaker 1: of ten filers are just taking the standard deduction because

1018
01:02:30,880 --> 01:02:33,800
Speaker 1: the Tax Cutting Job Back doubled the standard deduction, so

1019
01:02:33,840 --> 01:02:37,160
Speaker 1: it made that the most lucrative tax break for individual

1020
01:02:37,200 --> 01:02:40,440
Speaker 1: earners to take. The National Tax parag Union, where I'm

1021
01:02:40,440 --> 01:02:43,000
Speaker 1: a senior fellow, they released the report every year that

1022
01:02:43,040 --> 01:02:46,120
Speaker 1: talks about tax complexity and what the burden is that

1023
01:02:46,200 --> 01:02:48,960
Speaker 1: it puts on the economy, and that tax burden was

1024
01:02:49,000 --> 01:02:52,800
Speaker 1: decreased by about forty one million hours as a result

1025
01:02:52,840 --> 01:02:55,160
Speaker 1: of the Tax Cutting Jobs Act. There's still a lot

1026
01:02:55,280 --> 01:02:57,520
Speaker 1: of work to be done on the side of the

1027
01:02:57,640 --> 01:03:00,400
Speaker 1: corporate tax rate and the business side is things that

1028
01:03:00,520 --> 01:03:02,720
Speaker 1: still remains far too complex. If you can get rid

1029
01:03:02,720 --> 01:03:05,920
Speaker 1: of some of those complexities, that will shave off the

1030
01:03:05,960 --> 01:03:09,400
Speaker 1: cost that it takes to administrate the tax burden and

1031
01:03:09,480 --> 01:03:12,320
Speaker 1: for companies to comply, and that will mean more money

1032
01:03:12,360 --> 01:03:15,479
Speaker 1: and more economic turn back to the private enterprise, which

1033
01:03:15,480 --> 01:03:17,760
Speaker 1: of course allows the United States to become and stay

1034
01:03:17,800 --> 01:03:21,760
Speaker 1: the most competitive economy in the world. Maddie Duppler, you

1035
01:03:22,320 --> 01:03:25,400
Speaker 1: do taxes like nobody else does taxes. Maddie, it's amazing.

1036
01:03:26,200 --> 01:03:28,960
Speaker 1: That's a dubious distinction. But thanks for having me up.

1037
01:03:29,160 --> 01:03:31,640
Speaker 1: I know you. You're a super busy today. This woman's

1038
01:03:31,640 --> 01:03:34,680
Speaker 1: scout like fifty TV and radio hits over the course

1039
01:03:34,720 --> 01:03:37,680
Speaker 1: of tax Day because everyone else is like explained the

1040
01:03:37,720 --> 01:03:39,640
Speaker 1: taxes to me. Mattie, Maddie, thank you so much, so

1041
01:03:39,760 --> 01:03:42,560
Speaker 1: forward strategies. Everybody. You can follow Mattie on Twitter as well.

1042
01:03:43,360 --> 01:03:47,959
Speaker 1: Duples you rock the COSBA. Thanks back, All right, team,

1043
01:03:47,960 --> 01:03:54,120
Speaker 1: We'll be right back. My name is Carlos Gazatua. I'm

1044
01:03:54,160 --> 01:03:59,880
Speaker 1: the president for Sergio's Family Restaurants in Miami, Florida. Are

1045
01:04:00,000 --> 01:04:02,000
Speaker 1: business has been in business for over forty four years,

1046
01:04:03,000 --> 01:04:06,160
Speaker 1: on third generation running the business. It's a woman based

1047
01:04:06,320 --> 01:04:10,200
Speaker 1: organization that started nineteen seventy five and now we currently

1048
01:04:10,240 --> 01:04:15,400
Speaker 1: have over six hundred and fifty employees into South Florida.

1049
01:04:18,160 --> 01:04:21,160
Speaker 1: I want to tell you that the tax cuts are working.

1050
01:04:21,480 --> 01:04:24,720
Speaker 1: Here's what we're doing. We're investing in equipment and technology.

1051
01:04:25,440 --> 01:04:28,320
Speaker 1: We've created jobs in our corporate infrastructure to create a

1052
01:04:28,320 --> 01:04:32,520
Speaker 1: franchise system and for our stores. And today I am

1053
01:04:32,520 --> 01:04:35,520
Speaker 1: proud to announced with you that we'll be offering four

1054
01:04:35,600 --> 01:04:42,360
Speaker 1: one case to all of our employees tomorrow. Real positive

1055
01:04:42,480 --> 01:04:47,040
Speaker 1: change for a business owner, for a job creator down

1056
01:04:47,080 --> 01:04:52,880
Speaker 1: in Florida. Who's saying, Look, tax cuts have been a

1057
01:04:53,040 --> 01:04:55,560
Speaker 1: godsend for Austin, for our business, for our workers, for

1058
01:04:55,600 --> 01:05:01,360
Speaker 1: our employees. Government's never going to make you rich. Government's

1059
01:05:01,360 --> 01:05:03,040
Speaker 1: never going to make you happy. The government's never going

1060
01:05:03,120 --> 01:05:07,720
Speaker 1: to make you safe. This is what democrats don't understand.

1061
01:05:08,600 --> 01:05:10,880
Speaker 1: Government's not your friends, not there to hug you, keep

1062
01:05:10,880 --> 01:05:14,960
Speaker 1: you warm and safe at night. The government is there

1063
01:05:15,560 --> 01:05:21,360
Speaker 1: to protect our rights and to engage in activities that

1064
01:05:21,440 --> 01:05:27,720
Speaker 1: are clearly defined in the constitution. That is it. So

1065
01:05:27,760 --> 01:05:30,720
Speaker 1: when these people who come from the left, and there

1066
01:05:30,720 --> 01:05:33,160
Speaker 1: are even some on the right as well, suggest that,

1067
01:05:33,200 --> 01:05:35,720
Speaker 1: you know, it's the government's business to be creating jobs,

1068
01:05:35,720 --> 01:05:37,240
Speaker 1: the government should be the one that are the ones

1069
01:05:37,280 --> 01:05:39,320
Speaker 1: that are focused on this. Oh, if we want if

1070
01:05:39,360 --> 01:05:42,160
Speaker 1: we want jobs, what we need is an infrastructure bill. Yeah,

1071
01:05:42,200 --> 01:05:45,480
Speaker 1: that's what's going to do it. You know, what we

1072
01:05:45,560 --> 01:05:48,600
Speaker 1: really want is to get the government out of the

1073
01:05:48,640 --> 01:05:52,120
Speaker 1: way of people that are creating jobs by providing goods

1074
01:05:52,120 --> 01:05:56,600
Speaker 1: and services that people want and want more of, and

1075
01:05:56,680 --> 01:06:02,320
Speaker 1: want increasingly efficient delivery of those things at better prices.

1076
01:06:03,040 --> 01:06:08,120
Speaker 1: That's what people want. The tax cuts are always just

1077
01:06:09,160 --> 01:06:13,400
Speaker 1: we're just filled with all these lies about what happened

1078
01:06:13,440 --> 01:06:15,920
Speaker 1: to them. I mean, the way that people have in

1079
01:06:15,920 --> 01:06:21,880
Speaker 1: the media talked about this is completely dishonest. It's really

1080
01:06:22,040 --> 01:06:25,480
Speaker 1: hard when when you look at this to come away

1081
01:06:25,480 --> 01:06:27,680
Speaker 1: and not think, oh, so this was really a victory

1082
01:06:27,720 --> 01:06:33,400
Speaker 1: of fake news. I mean, this is a thread from

1083
01:06:33,400 --> 01:06:37,960
Speaker 1: my friend David Harsanyi, you know who we have on

1084
01:06:38,000 --> 01:06:41,080
Speaker 1: this show on a on a pretty regular basis, and

1085
01:06:41,160 --> 01:06:46,320
Speaker 1: he pulled together a whole bunch of different ways that

1086
01:06:46,440 --> 01:06:50,760
Speaker 1: Democrats were talking about the tax cuts. And what it

1087
01:06:50,840 --> 01:06:56,200
Speaker 1: shows you is that the tax cuts we're just lied

1088
01:06:56,520 --> 01:07:00,560
Speaker 1: about so much that it worked and people didn't take

1089
01:07:00,600 --> 01:07:04,120
Speaker 1: the time. They didn't they didn't, you know, have enough

1090
01:07:04,480 --> 01:07:06,320
Speaker 1: initiative on their own. So they've got other things to

1091
01:07:06,360 --> 01:07:09,080
Speaker 1: do to look into all this. But here you go.

1092
01:07:10,720 --> 01:07:13,600
Speaker 1: This is a story Metro dot us goop tax bill

1093
01:07:13,640 --> 01:07:18,480
Speaker 1: will kill ten thousand people a year, says economist Larry Summers.

1094
01:07:20,240 --> 01:07:23,800
Speaker 1: This is on the Hill dot com Pelosi gop GOP

1095
01:07:24,000 --> 01:07:27,200
Speaker 1: tax bill the worst bill in the history of Congress.

1096
01:07:32,800 --> 01:07:35,560
Speaker 1: Meet some of the victims of the Trump tax plan.

1097
01:07:35,720 --> 01:07:40,120
Speaker 1: This is a Yahoo Finance piece Washington Post. It's not

1098
01:07:40,240 --> 01:07:43,720
Speaker 1: enough to give money to rich people. Apparently Republicans want

1099
01:07:43,720 --> 01:07:46,240
Speaker 1: to kick the poor and middle class in the phase two.

1100
01:07:46,920 --> 01:07:50,000
Speaker 1: This is according to a supposedly serious economist at the

1101
01:07:50,040 --> 01:07:58,560
Speaker 1: Washington Post, this is amazing, opinion, a tax plan to

1102
01:07:58,600 --> 01:08:02,439
Speaker 1: turbo charge inequality in three charts. Tax cuts that mainly

1103
01:08:02,480 --> 01:08:04,760
Speaker 1: benefit the wealthy and spending cuts that mostly hit everyone

1104
01:08:04,760 --> 01:08:11,080
Speaker 1: else will only widen the gap. So oh, here we go, CNN.

1105
01:08:11,920 --> 01:08:16,520
Speaker 1: Trump's tax tax cuts are a bust. The ominous absurdity

1106
01:08:16,520 --> 01:08:19,960
Speaker 1: of Trump's tax cuts. Five false or misleading things Trump

1107
01:08:20,040 --> 01:08:23,800
Speaker 1: said in his speech about taxes. It's just this is

1108
01:08:23,840 --> 01:08:26,519
Speaker 1: just all It's all propaganda. I mean, I can go

1109
01:08:26,560 --> 01:08:30,160
Speaker 1: on and on and on. It's all propaganda. They say

1110
01:08:30,200 --> 01:08:31,960
Speaker 1: things like, oh, well, the most of the benefits go

1111
01:08:32,040 --> 01:08:35,719
Speaker 1: to the rich, not as a proportion of money and wealth.

1112
01:08:35,760 --> 01:08:40,719
Speaker 1: It doesn't. And here's what do you end up finding

1113
01:08:40,760 --> 01:08:43,280
Speaker 1: out is that if you look at this tax and

1114
01:08:43,439 --> 01:08:45,879
Speaker 1: we just talked to Mattie Deppler, who's a true tax experts,

1115
01:08:45,880 --> 01:08:48,439
Speaker 1: a friend of mine, if you look at what happened here,

1116
01:08:48,479 --> 01:08:52,559
Speaker 1: everybody has more money. But the media's fake news was

1117
01:08:52,600 --> 01:08:54,760
Speaker 1: so successful in this process that here we are on

1118
01:08:54,840 --> 01:08:58,960
Speaker 1: tax Day and I am steamed about how much time

1119
01:08:59,000 --> 01:09:01,040
Speaker 1: and effort and money I had to give the government

1120
01:09:01,240 --> 01:09:03,280
Speaker 1: in order to comply with my taxes. I think more

1121
01:09:03,560 --> 01:09:07,400
Speaker 1: Americans should be upset about this. We shouldn't just like

1122
01:09:07,479 --> 01:09:11,439
Speaker 1: a bunch of penned in cows ready to be milked,

1123
01:09:11,840 --> 01:09:14,960
Speaker 1: except that government has put us through all of this

1124
01:09:15,080 --> 01:09:17,920
Speaker 1: and takes as much from us as it does. But

1125
01:09:18,040 --> 01:09:20,040
Speaker 1: you still have most people thinking that they didn't get

1126
01:09:20,080 --> 01:09:23,240
Speaker 1: money that they got because they were lied to. This

1127
01:09:23,320 --> 01:09:26,240
Speaker 1: was an exercise in fake news by the media to

1128
01:09:26,479 --> 01:09:31,120
Speaker 1: undermine something that the Trump administration clearly did and accomplished,

1129
01:09:31,160 --> 01:09:33,479
Speaker 1: which was the tax cut. They said they would do it,

1130
01:09:33,520 --> 01:09:38,000
Speaker 1: and they did it. There have been serious benefits from it,

1131
01:09:38,960 --> 01:09:42,599
Speaker 1: but they want to pretend that there's been nothing. In fact,

1132
01:09:42,600 --> 01:09:44,800
Speaker 1: it's bad for people. They've been led to believe it's

1133
01:09:44,840 --> 01:09:49,400
Speaker 1: bad for them. This is why you can't trust what

1134
01:09:49,560 --> 01:09:53,920
Speaker 1: these left wing outlet's say, and some of them read

1135
01:09:54,000 --> 01:09:55,920
Speaker 1: you last week. I think it was the guy from

1136
01:09:56,000 --> 01:09:59,840
Speaker 1: vox who was raising this as an issue to be

1137
01:10:00,120 --> 01:10:03,200
Speaker 1: out of. See, we fool them. We fool enough of

1138
01:10:03,240 --> 01:10:07,519
Speaker 1: those dumb Americans into thinking that they don't have more

1139
01:10:07,560 --> 01:10:09,600
Speaker 1: money because of Trump's tax cut. When they do, ha

1140
01:10:09,760 --> 01:10:13,880
Speaker 1: ha ha, we win. This is how the left thinks

1141
01:10:13,880 --> 01:10:17,080
Speaker 1: about this. Do they care that that means that people

1142
01:10:18,080 --> 01:10:20,360
Speaker 1: are you're going to talk about undermining democracy. I mean,

1143
01:10:20,360 --> 01:10:23,000
Speaker 1: they're just spreading lies that people vote differently than they

1144
01:10:23,000 --> 01:10:26,840
Speaker 1: should based upon what is in their interest. It is

1145
01:10:26,840 --> 01:10:28,960
Speaker 1: in the interest of American households to have more money.

1146
01:10:29,000 --> 01:10:31,120
Speaker 1: They have more money now, but they don't think they

1147
01:10:31,120 --> 01:10:33,720
Speaker 1: have more money because the Democrats have been lying to

1148
01:10:33,760 --> 01:10:36,000
Speaker 1: them and saying, oh, look at how your refund is smaller.

1149
01:10:36,560 --> 01:10:39,080
Speaker 1: Don't even get me started about how the tax code

1150
01:10:39,160 --> 01:10:41,960
Speaker 1: is just a giant monument to corruption, because it is.

1151
01:10:42,400 --> 01:10:45,360
Speaker 1: It is insider dealing and insider favors, and the tax

1152
01:10:45,400 --> 01:10:48,599
Speaker 1: code is an abomination. But that's a conversation. I guess

1153
01:10:48,640 --> 01:10:51,720
Speaker 1: we'll have to have another day. You have these wings

1154
01:10:52,160 --> 01:10:56,720
Speaker 1: AOC and her group on one side. It's outside people. No,

1155
01:10:56,960 --> 01:11:01,839
Speaker 1: it's the progressive group. Progressive. I'm a progressive. Yeah. However,

1156
01:11:02,240 --> 01:11:06,479
Speaker 1: I do reject socialism as an economic system. If people

1157
01:11:06,680 --> 01:11:09,040
Speaker 1: have that view, that's their view. That is not the

1158
01:11:09,120 --> 01:11:14,160
Speaker 1: view of the Democratic Party. WHOA hold the phone, stop

1159
01:11:14,240 --> 01:11:18,880
Speaker 1: the presses. The Democrats are not a socialist party. What

1160
01:11:19,040 --> 01:11:21,840
Speaker 1: I thought. I thought they were all on board for socialism.

1161
01:11:22,360 --> 01:11:26,000
Speaker 1: Now they're saying they're not. Oh you mean you mean

1162
01:11:26,000 --> 01:11:28,040
Speaker 1: that they like to talk this big game about how

1163
01:11:28,040 --> 01:11:33,120
Speaker 1: progressive they are, and then when it comes to explaining

1164
01:11:33,120 --> 01:11:34,800
Speaker 1: to the American people, that would mean they get a

1165
01:11:34,800 --> 01:11:39,360
Speaker 1: little shy all of a sudden. Very interesting here. This

1166
01:11:39,439 --> 01:11:43,720
Speaker 1: is Pelosi, I think, refusing to accept the reality of

1167
01:11:43,720 --> 01:11:45,800
Speaker 1: what is happening in her party. I think she's I

1168
01:11:45,800 --> 01:11:48,960
Speaker 1: think she's wrong. I think the Democratic Party is the

1169
01:11:49,000 --> 01:11:52,559
Speaker 1: party of socialism. Now. I think the far left does

1170
01:11:52,640 --> 01:11:55,000
Speaker 1: control the Democratic Party. I mean she says, that's like

1171
01:11:55,160 --> 01:12:00,599
Speaker 1: five people about AOC and to leave and and these

1172
01:12:00,640 --> 01:12:05,439
Speaker 1: other very progressive left wing Democrats. Well, where's the agenda going.

1173
01:12:06,320 --> 01:12:08,360
Speaker 1: What do you hear from Democrats? Do you hear democrats

1174
01:12:08,360 --> 01:12:11,599
Speaker 1: talk about how they're gonna fix problems? No, you hear them.

1175
01:12:11,880 --> 01:12:15,160
Speaker 1: And this is now mainstream talking points from Democrats, things

1176
01:12:15,200 --> 01:12:19,040
Speaker 1: like the Green New Deal, which is an environmental plan

1177
01:12:19,120 --> 01:12:23,280
Speaker 1: for people that are just nuts, for crazy people. The

1178
01:12:23,439 --> 01:12:26,000
Speaker 1: Green New Deal. You're going to rebuild every building to

1179
01:12:26,000 --> 01:12:30,040
Speaker 1: make it environmentally friendly in the country. This is normal.

1180
01:12:30,080 --> 01:12:34,120
Speaker 1: People don't think this way. Rational individuals do not take

1181
01:12:34,160 --> 01:12:38,559
Speaker 1: this approach. It just simply does not make any sense. Here.

1182
01:12:38,600 --> 01:12:45,640
Speaker 1: They are thinking somehow that it does. The Green New

1183
01:12:45,720 --> 01:12:48,240
Speaker 1: Deal is one example of it's just that the demonization

1184
01:12:49,120 --> 01:12:52,439
Speaker 1: of wealth. I mean, look at Bernie Sanders. You know, millionaires, abilions.

1185
01:12:52,439 --> 01:12:54,479
Speaker 1: I'm a millionaire, but I wrote a book, or at

1186
01:12:54,560 --> 01:12:56,759
Speaker 1: least people help me write it. It was ghost written,

1187
01:12:57,040 --> 01:13:00,320
Speaker 1: and now I'm worth billions of dollars, or at least

1188
01:13:00,360 --> 01:13:04,120
Speaker 1: those I wish I was with billions. You know, Bernie

1189
01:13:04,160 --> 01:13:05,960
Speaker 1: Sanders talking about all the rich people all the time.

1190
01:13:06,680 --> 01:13:08,479
Speaker 1: Notice how a lot of the richest people in the

1191
01:13:08,479 --> 01:13:15,200
Speaker 1: country are left wing Democrats. But there's this this ideological

1192
01:13:15,800 --> 01:13:18,920
Speaker 1: identification that the left has with the poor and the downtrodden,

1193
01:13:19,320 --> 01:13:23,080
Speaker 1: even if it doesn't manifest itself in any meaningful way. Right,

1194
01:13:23,160 --> 01:13:25,880
Speaker 1: the Democrats like to think of themselves as the party

1195
01:13:25,880 --> 01:13:31,200
Speaker 1: of the poor. Meanwhile, the elites in this country are

1196
01:13:31,360 --> 01:13:37,720
Speaker 1: overwhelmingly Democrats. I mean, the true coastal enclaves of snobbery

1197
01:13:37,840 --> 01:13:40,240
Speaker 1: and hyper wealth are full of Democrats. They're not full

1198
01:13:40,240 --> 01:13:43,720
Speaker 1: of Republicans. I tend to see in my own life

1199
01:13:43,760 --> 01:13:45,519
Speaker 1: that Republicans are people who have had to make it

1200
01:13:45,600 --> 01:13:47,479
Speaker 1: on their own and are making it on their own

1201
01:13:47,600 --> 01:13:50,760
Speaker 1: and have had to work really really hard. Democrats are

1202
01:13:50,760 --> 01:13:53,880
Speaker 1: people who either got lucky, got it handed to them,

1203
01:13:55,400 --> 01:13:57,840
Speaker 1: or are bitter about the fact that they have the

1204
01:13:57,880 --> 01:14:01,440
Speaker 1: money that they do, which is at range but real phenomenon.

1205
01:14:01,760 --> 01:14:05,880
Speaker 1: People feel guilty about the success they've had, But demonizing

1206
01:14:05,960 --> 01:14:10,120
Speaker 1: success is part of what Democrats do. I mean the notion,

1207
01:14:10,240 --> 01:14:13,280
Speaker 1: I know, we talked a bit about taxes today. This

1208
01:14:13,280 --> 01:14:17,400
Speaker 1: this notion that you have people who make two hundred

1209
01:14:17,400 --> 01:14:19,280
Speaker 1: and fifty thousand dollars a year should be paying the

1210
01:14:19,320 --> 01:14:21,439
Speaker 1: same tax rate as somebody who makes ten million dollars

1211
01:14:21,479 --> 01:14:26,360
Speaker 1: a year. How is that rooted in any fairness? If

1212
01:14:26,360 --> 01:14:27,920
Speaker 1: we're going to use the F word there, how is

1213
01:14:27,960 --> 01:14:30,960
Speaker 1: that root any fairness? But for the Democrats, it's all

1214
01:14:30,960 --> 01:14:33,080
Speaker 1: about It's all about how it sounds and how it feels.

1215
01:14:33,280 --> 01:14:36,160
Speaker 1: That's what the that's that's how they're making these decisions.

1216
01:14:36,240 --> 01:14:39,800
Speaker 1: That's what's pushing policy forward for them. You know, how

1217
01:14:39,840 --> 01:14:41,800
Speaker 1: does it How does it make you feel that thing

1218
01:14:41,800 --> 01:14:43,439
Speaker 1: that you're saying, How does it? How does it make you?

1219
01:14:44,760 --> 01:14:46,519
Speaker 1: You know, how does it make you think about these

1220
01:14:46,560 --> 01:14:51,639
Speaker 1: things or think about yourself when it comes to these matters.

1221
01:14:53,520 --> 01:14:56,120
Speaker 1: Pelosi can downplay the far left inner Party as much

1222
01:14:56,120 --> 01:14:58,080
Speaker 1: as she wants, but she knows the power is shifting

1223
01:14:58,080 --> 01:15:02,040
Speaker 1: and has shifted towards them. The Democrats now a far

1224
01:15:02,200 --> 01:15:07,000
Speaker 1: left party and they're socialists in all but name. And

1225
01:15:07,120 --> 01:15:10,880
Speaker 1: that is why when you have AOC saying that she

1226
01:15:11,040 --> 01:15:13,640
Speaker 1: thinks that Trump should be impeached, I think the Democrats

1227
01:15:13,640 --> 01:15:17,400
Speaker 1: are going to have a very hard time not impeaching

1228
01:15:17,400 --> 01:15:20,400
Speaker 1: this president, even if it would be and I believe

1229
01:15:20,400 --> 01:15:23,920
Speaker 1: it would be politically a bad idea for them, But

1230
01:15:24,000 --> 01:15:26,040
Speaker 1: I think that they have to feed this to their

1231
01:15:26,160 --> 01:15:29,519
Speaker 1: rabid left wing base. I don't see a way around it.

1232
01:15:30,120 --> 01:15:33,519
Speaker 1: Their base will not accept a more measured approach. Their

1233
01:15:33,560 --> 01:15:38,280
Speaker 1: base will not accept that there could be another way play. Thirteen.

1234
01:15:38,760 --> 01:15:42,960
Speaker 1: This is largely a part, largely a question for our leadership.

1235
01:15:43,479 --> 01:15:47,920
Speaker 1: I think it's this is a very grave problem. But

1236
01:15:48,760 --> 01:15:51,240
Speaker 1: there are so many aspects to this presidency that have

1237
01:15:51,880 --> 01:15:54,280
Speaker 1: posed a grave problem. Is it impeachable in your view?

1238
01:15:54,400 --> 01:15:59,519
Speaker 1: I think you could reach in a bag and pull

1239
01:16:00,040 --> 01:16:02,479
Speaker 1: so many things out that are impeachable of this president.

1240
01:16:02,520 --> 01:16:08,040
Speaker 1: I support impeaching this president. Oh that's new, that's the

1241
01:16:08,040 --> 01:16:11,200
Speaker 1: new approach on the left. There's so much that you

1242
01:16:11,200 --> 01:16:14,080
Speaker 1: could impeach this president for that you can't even settle

1243
01:16:14,120 --> 01:16:17,800
Speaker 1: on one. Give me one WHOA. Well, I can't because

1244
01:16:17,800 --> 01:16:23,600
Speaker 1: there's so much Okay, that's an interesting way to approach this,

1245
01:16:23,720 --> 01:16:27,200
Speaker 1: isn't it. It's so obvious he should be impeached that

1246
01:16:27,240 --> 01:16:29,439
Speaker 1: you can't think of a single reason to impeach him,

1247
01:16:29,439 --> 01:16:32,040
Speaker 1: because there are endless reasons to impeach him. It almost

1248
01:16:32,040 --> 01:16:35,360
Speaker 1: sounds like they would impeach him just because they don't

1249
01:16:35,400 --> 01:16:38,679
Speaker 1: like him, doesn't it. Maybe that's what we're really getting

1250
01:16:38,720 --> 01:16:42,439
Speaker 1: at here. Maybe that's what is exposed in this whole process,

1251
01:16:42,880 --> 01:16:47,320
Speaker 1: that it has nothing to do with any specific violations

1252
01:16:47,360 --> 01:16:51,639
Speaker 1: of law or even presidential ethics. It's just they hate

1253
01:16:51,640 --> 01:16:55,439
Speaker 1: the president. They absolutely hate him. You know. I never

1254
01:16:55,479 --> 01:16:58,559
Speaker 1: hated Obama, and I know that maybe it's easy to

1255
01:16:58,560 --> 01:17:00,719
Speaker 1: say that now for people, but I didn't. I didn't

1256
01:17:00,720 --> 01:17:04,040
Speaker 1: hate Obama. I didn't hate I didn't hate Obama's family,

1257
01:17:04,040 --> 01:17:05,920
Speaker 1: which I think is really weird when people, because a

1258
01:17:05,920 --> 01:17:09,400
Speaker 1: lot of Democrats hate Trump's family, they'll say terrible things

1259
01:17:09,400 --> 01:17:13,519
Speaker 1: about Milannia and barn and I never did that. I

1260
01:17:13,560 --> 01:17:16,240
Speaker 1: didn't feel the need to trash the man's family just

1261
01:17:16,280 --> 01:17:18,960
Speaker 1: because I disagree them. I hated Obama's policies. I didn't

1262
01:17:19,000 --> 01:17:22,280
Speaker 1: like what he stood for, ideologically, I didn't like his

1263
01:17:22,360 --> 01:17:26,759
Speaker 1: decision making as commander in chief. It wasn't about hating Obama.

1264
01:17:27,040 --> 01:17:30,160
Speaker 1: It's a big difference with what you see in the

1265
01:17:30,160 --> 01:17:34,040
Speaker 1: anti Trump resistance. They actually hate Trump. They hate him.

1266
01:17:34,840 --> 01:17:39,640
Speaker 1: They take a certain self satisfaction and joy from the

1267
01:17:39,720 --> 01:17:42,639
Speaker 1: hatred of this man and his family and those around

1268
01:17:42,720 --> 01:17:46,120
Speaker 1: him and those who support him, which includes you and me.

1269
01:17:48,320 --> 01:17:52,360
Speaker 1: There's a disdain that they cannot hide, a disdain that

1270
01:17:53,240 --> 01:18:00,559
Speaker 1: grows over time. And AOC feels this staying not just

1271
01:18:00,600 --> 01:18:02,960
Speaker 1: for Trump, but even for those who are associated with

1272
01:18:03,000 --> 01:18:06,160
Speaker 1: Trump in her mind and in the left's mind in

1273
01:18:06,200 --> 01:18:11,720
Speaker 1: this country, like newly re elected net and Yahoo in

1274
01:18:11,760 --> 01:18:14,480
Speaker 1: Israel Play fourteen. I think these are part of conversations

1275
01:18:14,520 --> 01:18:21,640
Speaker 1: that we're having in our caucus. But I think what

1276
01:18:21,680 --> 01:18:27,160
Speaker 1: we're really seeing is the essense of authoritarianism across the world.

1277
01:18:27,880 --> 01:18:30,439
Speaker 1: I think that netun Yahoo is a Trump like figure.

1278
01:18:30,720 --> 01:18:33,879
Speaker 1: Would you be in favor of reducing military or economic

1279
01:18:33,960 --> 01:18:35,920
Speaker 1: ade to Israel? I mean, I think it's on the table.

1280
01:18:36,200 --> 01:18:37,800
Speaker 1: I think it's not certainly on the table, and I

1281
01:18:37,800 --> 01:18:44,080
Speaker 1: think it's something that can be discussed. Net and Yahoo

1282
01:18:44,160 --> 01:18:48,760
Speaker 1: is in a Trump like figure that speaks so well

1283
01:18:48,800 --> 01:18:52,040
Speaker 1: for Trump in so many ways, isn't it Because the

1284
01:18:52,120 --> 01:18:55,920
Speaker 1: Israeli people, the left wing in Israel on security was wrong.

1285
01:18:56,439 --> 01:18:59,040
Speaker 1: That's what ended up happening. They were wrong, and these

1286
01:18:59,080 --> 01:19:01,719
Speaker 1: really people eventually decided that they weren't going to listen

1287
01:19:02,040 --> 01:19:05,240
Speaker 1: to those who blamed Israel first when it came to

1288
01:19:05,320 --> 01:19:09,880
Speaker 1: suicide bombers or the Palestinian problem of terrorism. And in

1289
01:19:09,920 --> 01:19:12,680
Speaker 1: this country with Trump, we have a similar phenomenon. At

1290
01:19:12,760 --> 01:19:15,320
Speaker 1: some point we get tired of the lies and the nonsense,

1291
01:19:16,200 --> 01:19:18,679
Speaker 1: and that's what has led to the rise of Trump.

1292
01:19:18,720 --> 01:19:22,200
Speaker 1: The political class in this country has betrayed the American people,

1293
01:19:22,280 --> 01:19:25,599
Speaker 1: lie to the American people far too many times. So

1294
01:19:25,800 --> 01:19:28,080
Speaker 1: if Trump is like net Yahoo and net Yahoo is

1295
01:19:28,120 --> 01:19:31,960
Speaker 1: like Trump, good for them. Of course, the left just

1296
01:19:32,040 --> 01:19:33,960
Speaker 1: views them both through the same prison, which is one

1297
01:19:34,000 --> 01:19:37,280
Speaker 1: of disdain and hatred, and they can't help themselves no

1298
01:19:37,320 --> 01:19:44,479
Speaker 1: matter what Pelosi says, criminal prosecution for keeping assault weapons.

1299
01:19:44,800 --> 01:19:48,120
Speaker 1: What's the punishment for people who don't hand in their guns?

1300
01:19:48,200 --> 01:19:50,960
Speaker 1: Do they go to jail? Well, Jake, they would, but

1301
01:19:51,000 --> 01:19:53,120
Speaker 1: I also offer an alternative, which would be to keep

1302
01:19:53,160 --> 01:19:55,519
Speaker 1: them at a hunting club or a shooting range. These

1303
01:19:55,560 --> 01:19:58,640
Speaker 1: weapons are so devastated. I've seen this as a prosecutor

1304
01:19:59,000 --> 01:20:01,400
Speaker 1: in the cases that I've prosecuted. We've seen these and

1305
01:20:01,439 --> 01:20:04,639
Speaker 1: the school shootings from Sandy Hook to Parkland, and it's

1306
01:20:04,680 --> 01:20:07,920
Speaker 1: not just the violence that they've caused. It's the fear,

1307
01:20:08,000 --> 01:20:11,040
Speaker 1: the immeasurable fear that our children live in because they

1308
01:20:11,040 --> 01:20:12,960
Speaker 1: are still on our streets. I want to get rid

1309
01:20:12,960 --> 01:20:15,080
Speaker 1: of that fear. I want to do what Australia did

1310
01:20:15,120 --> 01:20:17,519
Speaker 1: in New Zealand just recently did. I think this issue

1311
01:20:17,560 --> 01:20:21,439
Speaker 1: just needs some bold leadership to do it. It's not

1312
01:20:21,479 --> 01:20:26,920
Speaker 1: the violence, Swalwell says, it's the fear. He kind of

1313
01:20:26,960 --> 01:20:30,679
Speaker 1: gave up the game there, folks. Here you have one

1314
01:20:30,720 --> 01:20:35,519
Speaker 1: of the roughly twenty Democrats who are either expected to

1315
01:20:35,640 --> 01:20:40,560
Speaker 1: run or running already for the Democratic presidential nomination. Swalwell

1316
01:20:40,720 --> 01:20:49,400
Speaker 1: who covered himself in absolute garbage for two years as

1317
01:20:49,439 --> 01:20:53,000
Speaker 1: one of the primary voices on Russia Trump collusion. I

1318
01:20:53,000 --> 01:20:55,599
Speaker 1: mean he was, he was out there saying all kinds

1319
01:20:55,640 --> 01:21:02,040
Speaker 1: of crazy stuff. Now he's building his presidential run around

1320
01:21:03,840 --> 01:21:06,280
Speaker 1: many things, I guess, but the primary one he's known

1321
01:21:06,320 --> 01:21:10,719
Speaker 1: for is that he opposes the Second Amendment. He wants

1322
01:21:10,760 --> 01:21:14,840
Speaker 1: to take all assault weapons from you. Now, some of

1323
01:21:14,880 --> 01:21:17,120
Speaker 1: you are probably already saying back, assault weapons aren't really

1324
01:21:17,160 --> 01:21:19,320
Speaker 1: a thing, I know, but that's what he's calling them.

1325
01:21:20,400 --> 01:21:23,840
Speaker 1: He wants to take all semi automatic rifles with cosmetic

1326
01:21:23,880 --> 01:21:27,639
Speaker 1: features that he finds scary. Because remember, it's not the violence,

1327
01:21:27,640 --> 01:21:29,559
Speaker 1: it's the fear, that's what he said, the fear that

1328
01:21:29,600 --> 01:21:37,200
Speaker 1: our kids have. Who stokes that fear. Who's responsible for

1329
01:21:37,439 --> 01:21:42,800
Speaker 1: creating the perception across the country that kids should be

1330
01:21:42,880 --> 01:21:46,080
Speaker 1: scared in schools. Children actually safer in school now and

1331
01:21:46,120 --> 01:21:49,800
Speaker 1: they were twenty years ago. Numbers don't lie. But who

1332
01:21:49,800 --> 01:21:53,240
Speaker 1: creates this perception? Oh, that's right, the media does. So

1333
01:21:53,280 --> 01:21:55,880
Speaker 1: the media tells us all to be very very very

1334
01:21:55,920 --> 01:22:00,400
Speaker 1: afraid that our children are all at risk. They don't

1335
01:22:00,439 --> 01:22:02,840
Speaker 1: want to have armed resource officers or people that might

1336
01:22:02,920 --> 01:22:07,439
Speaker 1: be able to do something on the school grounds, or

1337
01:22:07,720 --> 01:22:10,439
Speaker 1: at least they scoff at that, which would be a

1338
01:22:10,479 --> 01:22:13,080
Speaker 1: more serious proposal. To keep in mind, those school resource

1339
01:22:13,160 --> 01:22:17,240
Speaker 1: officers are not just there to stop school shootings in

1340
01:22:17,240 --> 01:22:19,000
Speaker 1: the sense that there could be a mass shooting. They're

1341
01:22:19,040 --> 01:22:22,439
Speaker 1: there in case there are other emergencies on the campus.

1342
01:22:22,439 --> 01:22:24,640
Speaker 1: They're there in case there's a fight that turns, you know,

1343
01:22:24,680 --> 01:22:26,719
Speaker 1: particularly violent. You know, you might want to have somebody

1344
01:22:26,800 --> 01:22:29,360
Speaker 1: there if two kids pull out switchblades, you probably want

1345
01:22:29,400 --> 01:22:33,280
Speaker 1: an armed resource officer on the school grounds. But they

1346
01:22:33,280 --> 01:22:36,719
Speaker 1: don't like that idea because it feeds into the good

1347
01:22:36,760 --> 01:22:40,479
Speaker 1: guy with a gun stops bad guy with a gun narrative.

1348
01:22:40,560 --> 01:22:42,200
Speaker 1: That's not the narrative they want to tell. The narrative

1349
01:22:42,240 --> 01:22:45,839
Speaker 1: Swalwa wants to tell is that people with assault weapons

1350
01:22:46,840 --> 01:22:48,360
Speaker 1: and I don't know what to say. I mean, this

1351
01:22:48,400 --> 01:22:50,519
Speaker 1: is what he calls it, right, people with semi automatic

1352
01:22:50,600 --> 01:22:57,920
Speaker 1: rifles are posing this big danger to society and people

1353
01:22:57,960 --> 01:23:01,200
Speaker 1: that have these particularly, they're going to go after the

1354
01:23:01,560 --> 01:23:03,920
Speaker 1: AR fifteen and things like it. That's what they really want.

1355
01:23:04,040 --> 01:23:06,960
Speaker 1: That's the most common semi automatic rifle in circulation right

1356
01:23:07,000 --> 01:23:11,480
Speaker 1: now that they want to ban under assault assault weapon guidelines,

1357
01:23:12,400 --> 01:23:14,919
Speaker 1: and they want to get rid of them because Swawall

1358
01:23:15,000 --> 01:23:18,519
Speaker 1: says that that's a danger to society. Now, I would

1359
01:23:18,560 --> 01:23:22,559
Speaker 1: have to point out to him that handguns are far

1360
01:23:22,680 --> 01:23:27,240
Speaker 1: more dangerous in terms of the lethality. Handguns are what

1361
01:23:27,400 --> 01:23:30,679
Speaker 1: really kills people in this country. It's ninety percent plus.

1362
01:23:30,680 --> 01:23:32,759
Speaker 1: I think it's ninety might even be more like ninety

1363
01:23:32,800 --> 01:23:37,280
Speaker 1: seven percent plus of the homicides that occur on the

1364
01:23:37,320 --> 01:23:41,559
Speaker 1: firearm are are with a handgun, might even mean ninety

1365
01:23:41,640 --> 01:23:43,680
Speaker 1: nine percent nothing. I mean, it's just almost all of it.

1366
01:23:44,120 --> 01:23:47,559
Speaker 1: You have roughly one hundred people, thousands and thousands of

1367
01:23:47,560 --> 01:23:51,280
Speaker 1: people a year are shot in this country, and you

1368
01:23:51,400 --> 01:23:53,799
Speaker 1: had roughly one hundred people a year are killed by rifles.

1369
01:23:53,800 --> 01:23:57,320
Speaker 1: And I think that includes suicides by rifle and a

1370
01:23:57,360 --> 01:24:00,040
Speaker 1: long gun shotgun, but it might not include that. It

1371
01:24:00,120 --> 01:24:04,200
Speaker 1: might just be those that are shot with those weapons. Yeah,

1372
01:24:04,439 --> 01:24:06,720
Speaker 1: cut the suicides out. I think that's not that's not

1373
01:24:06,840 --> 01:24:08,720
Speaker 1: in that statistic. But it's less than one hundred a

1374
01:24:08,760 --> 01:24:12,160
Speaker 1: year are killed by rifles or shotguns. Very few people

1375
01:24:12,240 --> 01:24:15,720
Speaker 1: are murdered with rifles or shotguns. But once every year

1376
01:24:15,800 --> 01:24:17,680
Speaker 1: or two there is an incident where someone takes a

1377
01:24:17,720 --> 01:24:21,080
Speaker 1: semi automatic rifle and for the purposes of mass carnage,

1378
01:24:21,400 --> 01:24:23,439
Speaker 1: just goes around shooting as many people as they can.

1379
01:24:25,000 --> 01:24:28,719
Speaker 1: But as we all know from the Fort Hood shooter,

1380
01:24:28,800 --> 01:24:32,439
Speaker 1: Nidal Hassan, two handguns. I might have been carrying three,

1381
01:24:32,479 --> 01:24:37,800
Speaker 1: but he used two simultaneously. The Virginia Tech shooter used

1382
01:24:37,840 --> 01:24:43,599
Speaker 1: a handgun and I believe a Tech nine and but

1383
01:24:43,680 --> 01:24:45,400
Speaker 1: you know, did not have long guns and not having

1384
01:24:45,439 --> 01:24:49,240
Speaker 1: a rifle of any kind, so people can engage in

1385
01:24:49,240 --> 01:24:51,360
Speaker 1: mass shootings and kill a whole lot of people without

1386
01:24:51,400 --> 01:24:55,000
Speaker 1: a rifle. In fact, I think some of you would argue,

1387
01:24:55,080 --> 01:24:57,599
Speaker 1: or you could argue, that a person who goes into

1388
01:24:57,680 --> 01:25:00,880
Speaker 1: a room, you know, with two pistol with extended clips

1389
01:25:00,920 --> 01:25:02,760
Speaker 1: could do every bit as much damage as somebody who

1390
01:25:02,800 --> 01:25:09,120
Speaker 1: goes in there with an r But violence isn't really

1391
01:25:09,120 --> 01:25:13,160
Speaker 1: the issue. A Swallwell says, fear is the issue. So

1392
01:25:13,200 --> 01:25:15,960
Speaker 1: they create the fear, and then they suggest the way

1393
01:25:16,040 --> 01:25:20,720
Speaker 1: to solve the problem is to ban ownership of these

1394
01:25:20,760 --> 01:25:23,200
Speaker 1: weapons and not just ban the new purchase of it,

1395
01:25:24,479 --> 01:25:28,040
Speaker 1: but to send people to prison if they won't give

1396
01:25:28,120 --> 01:25:31,080
Speaker 1: up their weapons. Now, that's what you have to remember

1397
01:25:31,080 --> 01:25:33,240
Speaker 1: with the gun grabbers is that ultimately they're not just

1398
01:25:33,320 --> 01:25:38,080
Speaker 1: about opposing violence. They're about incarcerating you for wanting to

1399
01:25:38,160 --> 01:25:42,040
Speaker 1: enjoy your Second Amendment rights. They want to take away

1400
01:25:42,040 --> 01:25:46,040
Speaker 1: your freedom, ruin you, perhaps ruin your life, because you

1401
01:25:46,120 --> 01:25:49,479
Speaker 1: own a semi automatic rifle that you legally purchase and

1402
01:25:49,520 --> 01:25:51,800
Speaker 1: that you are entitled two hundred and second Amendment. There

1403
01:25:51,840 --> 01:25:54,080
Speaker 1: are people like Eric Swawell who are Democrats who are

1404
01:25:54,080 --> 01:25:56,120
Speaker 1: on the left who think that you should be, oh,

1405
01:25:56,160 --> 01:25:59,960
Speaker 1: that's right, separated from your family. That's the family separation

1406
01:26:00,040 --> 01:26:02,960
Speaker 1: that doesn't bother them. Apparently only the family separation of

1407
01:26:03,000 --> 01:26:05,160
Speaker 1: illegals who are scamming our system at the border that

1408
01:26:05,280 --> 01:26:08,840
Speaker 1: really worries liberals. You being separated from your family because

1409
01:26:08,920 --> 01:26:13,040
Speaker 1: you don't want to hand over you are lawfully obtained

1410
01:26:13,560 --> 01:26:17,240
Speaker 1: semi automatic rifle. They're not gonna lose any sleep over

1411
01:26:17,320 --> 01:26:21,519
Speaker 1: that you go to prison, No big deal. And you

1412
01:26:21,560 --> 01:26:23,479
Speaker 1: see this with the way gun laws are enforced in

1413
01:26:23,520 --> 01:26:26,880
Speaker 1: any of these blue states, where even very minor or

1414
01:26:27,000 --> 01:26:31,439
Speaker 1: understandable good faith errors are punished severely. And those you

1415
01:26:31,439 --> 01:26:33,000
Speaker 1: who say, buck, there's no such thing. You have to

1416
01:26:33,040 --> 01:26:34,599
Speaker 1: know the laws, It's actually not true. There are good

1417
01:26:34,600 --> 01:26:37,400
Speaker 1: faith errors that can occur. Otherwise, Explain to me what

1418
01:26:37,479 --> 01:26:41,040
Speaker 1: somebody whose error, whose a flight is diverted to New

1419
01:26:41,120 --> 01:26:43,240
Speaker 1: York and then they have to get on a different

1420
01:26:43,240 --> 01:26:45,720
Speaker 1: flight the next day because of whether they have to

1421
01:26:45,760 --> 01:26:50,280
Speaker 1: recheck their handgun and are arrested, arrested for checking in

1422
01:26:50,320 --> 01:26:53,920
Speaker 1: the handgun that they were legally transporting, not caring, but

1423
01:26:54,000 --> 01:26:57,439
Speaker 1: transporting on an airplane because of whether they get pushed

1424
01:26:57,439 --> 01:27:00,439
Speaker 1: in New York City. They gotta then, you know, stay

1425
01:27:00,439 --> 01:27:02,800
Speaker 1: in a hotel for the night, they get their firearm

1426
01:27:03,400 --> 01:27:05,160
Speaker 1: in their luggage, and then when they go to recheck

1427
01:27:05,160 --> 01:27:06,640
Speaker 1: their luggage, New York says, well, you don't have a

1428
01:27:06,640 --> 01:27:10,439
Speaker 1: permit for this. You're going to prison. Yeah, that's that's

1429
01:27:10,439 --> 01:27:12,120
Speaker 1: I wouldn't even say that's a good faith error on

1430
01:27:12,120 --> 01:27:13,880
Speaker 1: the part of the gun or that's just that's just

1431
01:27:13,920 --> 01:27:16,960
Speaker 1: completely wrong what they do to that person. They have

1432
01:27:17,040 --> 01:27:19,800
Speaker 1: no choice. This should be like the government saying, well,

1433
01:27:19,880 --> 01:27:22,920
Speaker 1: we're gonna pick you up in one state and drive

1434
01:27:22,960 --> 01:27:25,240
Speaker 1: you across state lines to where your gun is illegal.

1435
01:27:25,680 --> 01:27:27,640
Speaker 1: You know, stinks for you, but we're gonna make you

1436
01:27:27,680 --> 01:27:30,280
Speaker 1: do that, and then we're going to arrest you for it. Well,

1437
01:27:30,320 --> 01:27:33,599
Speaker 1: but that's not that's not fair, is it. They don't

1438
01:27:33,640 --> 01:27:36,439
Speaker 1: care about fair. It's not about the stopping of violence, folks.

1439
01:27:36,479 --> 01:27:38,599
Speaker 1: It's about the fear. Remember what he said, It's about

1440
01:27:38,640 --> 01:27:42,200
Speaker 1: the fear. They create the fear, they manipulate it, they

1441
01:27:42,240 --> 01:27:45,920
Speaker 1: expand upon it. Just one more note here on Squaw,

1442
01:27:46,080 --> 01:27:55,320
Speaker 1: who is just deeply unimpressive character that he thinks letting

1443
01:27:55,479 --> 01:28:00,400
Speaker 1: individuals keep their rifle at a range would stop stop

1444
01:28:00,439 --> 01:28:04,320
Speaker 1: all mass shootings, somebody will just take the rifle from

1445
01:28:04,320 --> 01:28:09,360
Speaker 1: that range. This, I mean, it's such a ridiculous idea.

1446
01:28:09,400 --> 01:28:11,880
Speaker 1: It's such a ridiculous compromise to have. In the first place.

1447
01:28:12,360 --> 01:28:14,680
Speaker 1: You have so many millions of these guns already in circulation.

1448
01:28:14,720 --> 01:28:17,760
Speaker 1: All you need is one. One rifle in the hands

1449
01:28:17,760 --> 01:28:20,519
Speaker 1: of a bad guy can kill dozens of people and

1450
01:28:20,680 --> 01:28:23,360
Speaker 1: has many times in the past. So unless you get

1451
01:28:23,400 --> 01:28:25,400
Speaker 1: every single one of them out of circulation, there's always

1452
01:28:25,439 --> 01:28:28,400
Speaker 1: the chance that someone's going to misuse one. But he

1453
01:28:28,439 --> 01:28:30,479
Speaker 1: thinks that this is the way that we're gonna go

1454
01:28:30,560 --> 01:28:33,280
Speaker 1: forward with us. It just makes no sense at all.

1455
01:28:34,479 --> 01:28:38,960
Speaker 1: It just makes no sense at all. But he's not

1456
01:28:38,960 --> 01:28:42,120
Speaker 1: trying to make sense. He's just trying to placate the

1457
01:28:42,240 --> 01:28:48,920
Speaker 1: Left in their insanity on guns. Whenever you turn over

1458
01:28:49,880 --> 01:28:56,599
Speaker 1: a rock, you tend to find some slimy Democrat character

1459
01:28:56,680 --> 01:29:01,120
Speaker 1: assassination outfit underneath it. These days, it's just amazing how

1460
01:29:01,240 --> 01:29:06,000
Speaker 1: much this keeps happening over and over again. I haven't

1461
01:29:06,040 --> 01:29:10,760
Speaker 1: covered this yet on the show, but Justice Brett Cavanaugh

1462
01:29:11,920 --> 01:29:19,559
Speaker 1: has gotten all kinds of negative attention from groups recently

1463
01:29:19,600 --> 01:29:23,080
Speaker 1: that say that he should not be allowed to teach

1464
01:29:23,840 --> 01:29:29,519
Speaker 1: a university course through George Mason University, a summer teaching job.

1465
01:29:30,720 --> 01:29:34,760
Speaker 1: They want him fired from a summer teaching job at

1466
01:29:34,800 --> 01:29:40,560
Speaker 1: George Mason University. Students for Mason Force Survivors is the

1467
01:29:40,600 --> 01:29:44,080
Speaker 1: student group that has been saying this has to happen. Now,

1468
01:29:44,520 --> 01:29:46,599
Speaker 1: this is wrong on so many levels. First of all,

1469
01:29:46,600 --> 01:29:50,759
Speaker 1: if you still believe that Brett Cavanaugh is a sexual

1470
01:29:50,800 --> 01:29:55,120
Speaker 1: predator who was part of this high school gang rape crew,

1471
01:29:55,280 --> 01:29:58,680
Speaker 1: you're a moron. You're actually a moron. If at this

1472
01:29:58,720 --> 01:30:01,680
Speaker 1: point you still believe that you are not an intelligent

1473
01:30:01,760 --> 01:30:08,559
Speaker 1: human being, You do not have a particularly astute or

1474
01:30:08,680 --> 01:30:13,719
Speaker 1: capable brain. Only an idiot would still believe this. Okay,

1475
01:30:13,800 --> 01:30:17,679
Speaker 1: only somebody or someone who is delusional, right, So it's

1476
01:30:17,680 --> 01:30:20,680
Speaker 1: not that they don't have a fast firing mind, but

1477
01:30:20,760 --> 01:30:24,680
Speaker 1: their mind does not have the judgment that comes from

1478
01:30:24,760 --> 01:30:26,679
Speaker 1: being rooted in reality. So you have to be either

1479
01:30:26,720 --> 01:30:32,479
Speaker 1: stupid or delusional to think that Brett Kavanaugh was a

1480
01:30:32,520 --> 01:30:35,200
Speaker 1: secret rapist all those years, and I mean the women

1481
01:30:35,200 --> 01:30:37,200
Speaker 1: who came out against him, it was all such an

1482
01:30:37,200 --> 01:30:40,400
Speaker 1: obvious political hit. The third woman was clearly a liar,

1483
01:30:40,439 --> 01:30:43,800
Speaker 1: the second woman was also a liar, and the first

1484
01:30:43,840 --> 01:30:46,000
Speaker 1: woman the more you thought about it, Yeah, she was

1485
01:30:46,040 --> 01:30:49,400
Speaker 1: a liar too. But this group that's supposed to be

1486
01:30:49,560 --> 01:30:54,120
Speaker 1: student activist trying to stop Brett Kavanaugh from getting his

1487
01:30:54,240 --> 01:30:58,519
Speaker 1: teaching job for the summer through George Mason University, turns

1488
01:30:58,600 --> 01:31:04,040
Speaker 1: out that Demand Justice, which is a liberal advocacy group

1489
01:31:04,120 --> 01:31:10,519
Speaker 1: that Hillary Clinton's twenty sixteen press secretary Brian Fallon runs,

1490
01:31:11,320 --> 01:31:15,400
Speaker 1: is behind the Facebook ad campaign that is going that

1491
01:31:15,560 --> 01:31:19,600
Speaker 1: is specifically going to students at George Mason University, and

1492
01:31:19,720 --> 01:31:22,759
Speaker 1: they want students to sign a change dot org petition

1493
01:31:22,840 --> 01:31:25,280
Speaker 1: to get kavan off fired. This is what libs do.

1494
01:31:25,560 --> 01:31:30,519
Speaker 1: You'll notice Conservatives don't rush to get people fired all

1495
01:31:30,560 --> 01:31:33,479
Speaker 1: the time. We don't always threaten boycotts. We don't go

1496
01:31:33,560 --> 01:31:38,200
Speaker 1: through life like a bunch of spoiled cry babies who

1497
01:31:38,280 --> 01:31:41,840
Speaker 1: don't know how to operate, who don't know how to

1498
01:31:41,880 --> 01:31:44,280
Speaker 1: function in a world where they don't always get their way.

1499
01:31:44,479 --> 01:31:50,479
Speaker 1: Liberals just can't handle things, or they're so lacking in

1500
01:31:50,640 --> 01:31:55,400
Speaker 1: honor and integrity that they think any political dispute with

1501
01:31:55,439 --> 01:32:03,160
Speaker 1: somebody is license to ruin their life, to ruin their future.

1502
01:32:05,200 --> 01:32:08,639
Speaker 1: Anytime a liberal disagrees with somebody, Now, if they're important enough,

1503
01:32:09,560 --> 01:32:12,599
Speaker 1: they take it upon themselves to try to get them fired,

1504
01:32:13,000 --> 01:32:17,240
Speaker 1: to try to wage individual economic warfare against people. They're

1505
01:32:17,280 --> 01:32:21,559
Speaker 1: doing it right now against Kirston Nielsen. They do not

1506
01:32:21,760 --> 01:32:25,200
Speaker 1: want Kirston Nielsen to be able to get odd job

1507
01:32:25,439 --> 01:32:27,400
Speaker 1: now that she has left the Trump administration. They've been

1508
01:32:27,479 --> 01:32:30,360
Speaker 1: very open about this. There are activist groups that are

1509
01:32:30,360 --> 01:32:34,679
Speaker 1: sending letters to corporations, the CEOs all over the country saying,

1510
01:32:34,680 --> 01:32:38,759
Speaker 1: do not hire Kirston Nilsen when you have a sitting

1511
01:32:38,800 --> 01:32:44,719
Speaker 1: Supreme Court justice who was remember at the absolute peak

1512
01:32:44,760 --> 01:32:48,799
Speaker 1: of a legal profession before he became a Supreme Court justice,

1513
01:32:49,840 --> 01:32:55,200
Speaker 1: impeccable credentials, unbelievable background in terms of the kinds of

1514
01:32:55,240 --> 01:32:57,760
Speaker 1: cases he had worked on as an appellate judge and

1515
01:32:58,360 --> 01:33:01,320
Speaker 1: DC circuit. I mean, this guy was in every respect

1516
01:33:01,400 --> 01:33:04,519
Speaker 1: the gold standard in the legal profession. My friends who

1517
01:33:04,520 --> 01:33:08,360
Speaker 1: are super lawyer nerds were like Cavanaugh from a resume

1518
01:33:08,479 --> 01:33:14,120
Speaker 1: perspective is unbeatable, unbeatable, and also from a character perspective,

1519
01:33:14,120 --> 01:33:16,479
Speaker 1: when you take into account what he's really like and

1520
01:33:16,600 --> 01:33:19,200
Speaker 1: what people who have worked with him say. Not some

1521
01:33:19,320 --> 01:33:22,599
Speaker 1: smear campaign by left wing activists who just cry a lot,

1522
01:33:23,840 --> 01:33:28,080
Speaker 1: and yet they a former Hillary spokesman, someone with close

1523
01:33:28,120 --> 01:33:32,160
Speaker 1: ties at Hillary Clinton is running this campaign to ruin

1524
01:33:32,280 --> 01:33:36,920
Speaker 1: Cavanaugh by getting people on college, on this college campus,

1525
01:33:36,960 --> 01:33:39,720
Speaker 1: on George Mason University, to say that he should be

1526
01:33:39,760 --> 01:33:41,880
Speaker 1: fired from a job that he was offered. I mean,

1527
01:33:42,320 --> 01:33:45,280
Speaker 1: these leftists are morons, they really are. You know. Justice

1528
01:33:45,439 --> 01:33:48,200
Speaker 1: Scalia came to speak at Amherst, and the entire political

1529
01:33:48,200 --> 01:33:54,360
Speaker 1: science department, except for my advisor, blessed Professor Arky's boycott

1530
01:33:54,400 --> 01:33:58,120
Speaker 1: the speech. Students refused to go dressed in all black

1531
01:33:58,200 --> 01:34:00,840
Speaker 1: war black armbands, turned their backs next to him. I

1532
01:34:00,920 --> 01:34:04,120
Speaker 1: don't want to let them know. We were lucky at

1533
01:34:04,160 --> 01:34:06,479
Speaker 1: our little sixteen hundred person school to have a sitting

1534
01:34:06,520 --> 01:34:09,680
Speaker 1: Supreme Court justice come and talk to us, stand up

1535
01:34:09,680 --> 01:34:11,639
Speaker 1: in our chapel and try to enlighten us a little

1536
01:34:11,640 --> 01:34:15,200
Speaker 1: bit about what really happens, what's really going on in jurisprunce.

1537
01:34:15,280 --> 01:34:18,559
Speaker 1: We were lucky. Anyone at George Mason University who would

1538
01:34:18,560 --> 01:34:23,320
Speaker 1: be able to study with Cavanaugh's lucky. But instead you

1539
01:34:23,400 --> 01:34:28,840
Speaker 1: have these leftists who are just complete and utter lons

1540
01:34:28,880 --> 01:34:34,479
Speaker 1: and cry babies. And it's wrong and it's vindictive, and

1541
01:34:34,880 --> 01:34:37,519
Speaker 1: we need to start fighting back against this. We need

1542
01:34:37,520 --> 01:34:39,880
Speaker 1: to start saying enough is enough. These leftists can't run

1543
01:34:39,920 --> 01:34:42,280
Speaker 1: around like little petty terrorists because that's what they are.

1544
01:34:45,560 --> 01:34:48,400
Speaker 1: Ain't no party like a Team Buck party, because a

1545
01:34:48,520 --> 01:34:58,080
Speaker 1: Team Buck party, don't stop. Yeah, we got bucks turned

1546
01:34:58,120 --> 01:35:16,880
Speaker 1: up to eleven. It's time for roll call. Roll call, everybody,

1547
01:35:16,920 --> 01:35:22,360
Speaker 1: It's time for the roll call. That's right, Facebook dot com,

1548
01:35:22,400 --> 01:35:26,080
Speaker 1: slash Buck Sexton, if you want in on the roll call,

1549
01:35:26,880 --> 01:35:30,519
Speaker 1: let's get to it. Thanks, this is Brian. Thanks for

1550
01:35:30,560 --> 01:35:33,240
Speaker 1: going back to get some great questions to job Creator

1551
01:35:33,280 --> 01:35:36,040
Speaker 1: Network CEO on Rising this morning. You pushed all the

1552
01:35:36,120 --> 01:35:41,040
Speaker 1: right tax points. I appreciated Alfredo's honest answers. You and

1553
01:35:41,080 --> 01:35:43,400
Speaker 1: Crystal are continue to do a great job on that show.

1554
01:35:43,439 --> 01:35:45,240
Speaker 1: I'm sure it can be trying at times with some

1555
01:35:45,320 --> 01:35:48,200
Speaker 1: of those far left guests, but the pros far outweigh

1556
01:35:48,200 --> 01:35:50,439
Speaker 1: the cons, one being you get to talk to and

1557
01:35:50,439 --> 01:35:53,280
Speaker 1: hopefully influence powerful people on both sides of the aisle

1558
01:35:53,280 --> 01:35:58,160
Speaker 1: with new perspectives while keeping you on fresh on daily happenings.

1559
01:35:58,240 --> 01:36:00,200
Speaker 1: Keep up the great work, Brian. Well, Brian, that's the

1560
01:36:00,280 --> 01:36:04,240
Speaker 1: nicest thing anyone's written about Rising, so really do appreciate it,

1561
01:36:04,320 --> 01:36:06,320
Speaker 1: my friend. Thank you. I'm glad you enjoy the show.

1562
01:36:06,840 --> 01:36:11,800
Speaker 1: It is an exercise in patient. Sometimes my co host

1563
01:36:11,880 --> 01:36:15,559
Speaker 1: is a lovely person and we get along famously, but

1564
01:36:15,680 --> 01:36:18,879
Speaker 1: just having a left right conversation, especially with the guests,

1565
01:36:19,520 --> 01:36:25,799
Speaker 1: can be a challenge, can be very, very difficult. So

1566
01:36:26,320 --> 01:36:29,160
Speaker 1: let's see what we get going on in the future there,

1567
01:36:30,360 --> 01:36:33,080
Speaker 1: James writes Buck, I listen to your Friday podcast. I

1568
01:36:33,120 --> 01:36:35,439
Speaker 1: want to echo the comment about the podcast ads. They

1569
01:36:35,479 --> 01:36:37,559
Speaker 1: also hear them. They're not in line with the freedom hunt.

1570
01:36:37,840 --> 01:36:39,920
Speaker 1: I believe it is from your podcast host. They do

1571
01:36:39,960 --> 01:36:42,200
Speaker 1: not know who it is. I listen to via Amazon Echo.

1572
01:36:42,280 --> 01:36:45,160
Speaker 1: It just pulls the cast McCloud somewhere. Figure you may

1573
01:36:45,200 --> 01:36:48,599
Speaker 1: as well let the NSA here you as well. Shields high. Yeah, James,

1574
01:36:48,600 --> 01:36:50,400
Speaker 1: we're gonna have to see what the hosting we're working

1575
01:36:50,439 --> 01:36:52,240
Speaker 1: on this one. I've had a lot of people say it.

1576
01:36:52,240 --> 01:36:54,280
Speaker 1: I don't know how much control we have over the

1577
01:36:54,280 --> 01:36:58,160
Speaker 1: podcast ads. It might be what's called programmatic, where there's

1578
01:36:58,200 --> 01:37:00,479
Speaker 1: kind of a pre selected run of ads that they do.

1579
01:37:00,560 --> 01:37:03,160
Speaker 1: And this then gets beyond my pay grade because it

1580
01:37:03,200 --> 01:37:06,920
Speaker 1: turns into revenue generation for the show. So if you

1581
01:37:06,960 --> 01:37:09,120
Speaker 1: want those ads to go away, just keep keep buying

1582
01:37:09,160 --> 01:37:12,439
Speaker 1: black rifle coffee and donate some money to the Leadership

1583
01:37:12,479 --> 01:37:16,040
Speaker 1: Institute and etc. Etc. You know that that'll help us

1584
01:37:16,080 --> 01:37:20,599
Speaker 1: get rid of the podcast ads faster. Dwayne all Right,

1585
01:37:21,040 --> 01:37:24,599
Speaker 1: was the electronics spying on Trump campaign court ordered as

1586
01:37:24,720 --> 01:37:30,120
Speaker 1: COMI says or court approved? Seems two different things. Doubt

1587
01:37:30,160 --> 01:37:32,400
Speaker 1: the court's called up Coomi and ordered him to spy

1588
01:37:32,520 --> 01:37:36,040
Speaker 1: on the campaign, you know, Duaye I, I appreciate the

1589
01:37:36,080 --> 01:37:38,639
Speaker 1: distinction that you're making there. I think it's a meaningful

1590
01:37:38,720 --> 01:37:43,599
Speaker 1: one because in the context of fish, this isn't there's

1591
01:37:43,640 --> 01:37:46,800
Speaker 1: no opposition. You know, in a normal court of law,

1592
01:37:46,880 --> 01:37:49,040
Speaker 1: when you go before a judge, granted for you know,

1593
01:37:49,080 --> 01:37:51,680
Speaker 1: a search warrant, certain things, the judge just have to

1594
01:37:51,880 --> 01:37:54,639
Speaker 1: has to sign off on it. But in this case,

1595
01:37:54,720 --> 01:37:57,320
Speaker 1: it's all done in secret and the judge just signs

1596
01:37:57,320 --> 01:38:02,280
Speaker 1: off on it. Right, There's there's a a rubber stamping

1597
01:38:02,560 --> 01:38:06,040
Speaker 1: that this process seems to have been become that I

1598
01:38:06,360 --> 01:38:11,880
Speaker 1: think is definitely problematic. So we'll have to see my friend.

1599
01:38:12,200 --> 01:38:15,559
Speaker 1: But yes, it was really court approved as in the

1600
01:38:15,640 --> 01:38:17,799
Speaker 1: court in this instant, and this may be a problem

1601
01:38:17,920 --> 01:38:22,160
Speaker 1: with other with other instances, other law enforcement requests as well.

1602
01:38:22,439 --> 01:38:25,160
Speaker 1: We have to keep that in mind. But the judge

1603
01:38:25,160 --> 01:38:27,280
Speaker 1: shouldn't just say, oh, you want to listen in on

1604
01:38:27,320 --> 01:38:34,160
Speaker 1: a presidential campaign, Sure, go for it. Richard, right, buck happy,

1605
01:38:34,160 --> 01:38:36,519
Speaker 1: who's your hellos? Talking to your big brother. While I

1606
01:38:36,560 --> 01:38:39,520
Speaker 1: was listening to your podcast and you mentioned the Panopticon,

1607
01:38:39,760 --> 01:38:41,920
Speaker 1: I went to read more and guess what came up after.

1608
01:38:42,640 --> 01:38:44,519
Speaker 1: I've never looked up that work in my life. The

1609
01:38:44,600 --> 01:38:47,719
Speaker 1: stuff is creepy. On a total side note, the prison

1610
01:38:47,840 --> 01:38:50,280
Speaker 1: and Guardian of the Guardians of the Galaxy, it was

1611
01:38:50,320 --> 01:38:56,000
Speaker 1: a Panopticon Shields and mixtapes high Richard. Yeah, Richard, you

1612
01:38:56,040 --> 01:38:58,320
Speaker 1: always bring insight to the show with your notes. My friend,

1613
01:38:58,360 --> 01:39:04,800
Speaker 1: I do do appreciate eight. Daniel, can you tell me

1614
01:39:04,880 --> 01:39:07,960
Speaker 1: more about yourself? My name is Daniel. I recently moved

1615
01:39:08,000 --> 01:39:11,320
Speaker 1: to Colorado. I can tell you this Colorado would be

1616
01:39:11,320 --> 01:39:14,400
Speaker 1: every bit as progressive and liberal leftist California if it

1617
01:39:14,439 --> 01:39:16,559
Speaker 1: were a border state and if more people lived here.

1618
01:39:17,040 --> 01:39:19,200
Speaker 1: Some ways it is worse. The red Flag bill is

1619
01:39:19,240 --> 01:39:21,680
Speaker 1: one example. Well, Daniel, if you want to know more

1620
01:39:21,680 --> 01:39:23,719
Speaker 1: about me, you just got to keep listening to the show,

1621
01:39:23,760 --> 01:39:27,559
Speaker 1: because I do talk on this radio show for three

1622
01:39:27,560 --> 01:39:29,639
Speaker 1: hours at a time, and it's the probably the best

1623
01:39:29,640 --> 01:39:33,560
Speaker 1: single way out there to get to know me. I

1624
01:39:33,880 --> 01:39:35,720
Speaker 1: people who know me in real life kind of laugh

1625
01:39:35,800 --> 01:39:39,240
Speaker 1: sometimes because I do like to listen a lot. I'm

1626
01:39:39,280 --> 01:39:42,479
Speaker 1: not as talkative in person as I am on radio.

1627
01:39:42,520 --> 01:39:44,800
Speaker 1: It's probably because I have to speak so much for

1628
01:39:45,000 --> 01:39:48,200
Speaker 1: my job. But that would be my recommendation. Just listen

1629
01:39:48,240 --> 01:39:50,280
Speaker 1: to this show and tell people about this show. As

1630
01:39:50,280 --> 01:39:54,200
Speaker 1: for Colorado, I know that it's become a more purple state.

1631
01:39:54,520 --> 01:39:59,400
Speaker 1: There are progressive outposts in it, but they are also

1632
01:39:59,520 --> 01:40:02,080
Speaker 1: very concerned ivative parts of Colorado. That's true of many states,

1633
01:40:02,520 --> 01:40:06,200
Speaker 1: and even a state like Pennsylvania for example. And you know,

1634
01:40:06,200 --> 01:40:10,840
Speaker 1: we're on a wonderful station affiliate out in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.

1635
01:40:11,200 --> 01:40:13,799
Speaker 1: But if you go to Philly, obviously Philly is blue

1636
01:40:13,800 --> 01:40:17,360
Speaker 1: blue blue, Pittsburgh very blue. But other parts of the

1637
01:40:17,360 --> 01:40:19,720
Speaker 1: state of Pennsylvania they still respect the Second Amendment in

1638
01:40:19,760 --> 01:40:24,400
Speaker 1: the Constitution and take a much more conservative view of things.

1639
01:40:27,080 --> 01:40:29,240
Speaker 1: Phil Rights. Hey, Buck Coball is well in the Freedom Hunt.

1640
01:40:29,760 --> 01:40:32,280
Speaker 1: I was wondering if you'd have on Scott Horton. He is,

1641
01:40:32,280 --> 01:40:36,960
Speaker 1: without a doubt a foreign policy guru on everyone on

1642
01:40:37,000 --> 01:40:42,280
Speaker 1: everything rather all right, and also ps love the Beard.

1643
01:40:42,360 --> 01:40:44,559
Speaker 1: Thank you, Phil the Beard seems to be getting more

1644
01:40:44,600 --> 01:40:48,400
Speaker 1: thumbs up than thumbs down. I gotta say some folks

1645
01:40:48,400 --> 01:40:52,480
Speaker 1: seem to be more pro Beard than you might have anticipated,

1646
01:40:53,200 --> 01:40:59,559
Speaker 1: then I would have anticipated. So yes, indeed, Laurel, right buck,

1647
01:40:59,560 --> 01:41:01,519
Speaker 1: I'm a podcast listeners, so I'm usually a day or

1648
01:41:01,520 --> 01:41:04,760
Speaker 1: so behind listening to Friday's show. And you're monologue on

1649
01:41:04,880 --> 01:41:07,840
Speaker 1: control of the language. Did you notice that in the

1650
01:41:07,880 --> 01:41:10,479
Speaker 1: indictment of Julian Assange they referred to Chelsea Manning as

1651
01:41:10,600 --> 01:41:14,680
Speaker 1: she Interesting how we are discussing words like illegal immigrants

1652
01:41:14,680 --> 01:41:18,600
Speaker 1: being the technical codified terminology for those who are unlawfully

1653
01:41:18,600 --> 01:41:21,800
Speaker 1: in the country, but those responsible for writing indictments for

1654
01:41:21,880 --> 01:41:26,680
Speaker 1: crimes are including factually incorrect information about co conspirators and witnesses.

1655
01:41:27,439 --> 01:41:29,599
Speaker 1: Speaking of Osange, I'm not entirely sure where to make

1656
01:41:29,600 --> 01:41:31,760
Speaker 1: of it. I feel it's a gray area that, if

1657
01:41:31,760 --> 01:41:34,040
Speaker 1: prosecutor and found guilty, could be used in the future

1658
01:41:34,400 --> 01:41:37,000
Speaker 1: as case law to go after mainstream media journalists who

1659
01:41:37,000 --> 01:41:41,400
Speaker 1: published league material. Can you share or reshare your thoughts, Laurel,

1660
01:41:41,640 --> 01:41:43,760
Speaker 1: You make well, You make an excellent point and raise

1661
01:41:43,800 --> 01:41:48,519
Speaker 1: an excellent question. As for the terminology, I did notice

1662
01:41:48,560 --> 01:41:50,879
Speaker 1: this too, that it is, and it is true across

1663
01:41:51,000 --> 01:41:54,519
Speaker 1: I believe now all of the news networks. I believe

1664
01:41:54,600 --> 01:41:56,840
Speaker 1: all of them. I could be wrong on that, but

1665
01:41:57,760 --> 01:42:00,919
Speaker 1: use the term in their news broadcasts, least not necessarily

1666
01:42:01,000 --> 01:42:06,080
Speaker 1: in their commentary. That Chelsea Manning is a she, that

1667
01:42:06,240 --> 01:42:10,320
Speaker 1: is a factually incorrect statement. And if we're going to

1668
01:42:10,320 --> 01:42:13,519
Speaker 1: start making factually incorrect statements because some people think it

1669
01:42:13,720 --> 01:42:16,400
Speaker 1: is a nicer thing to do than I would at

1670
01:42:16,479 --> 01:42:18,960
Speaker 1: least want everyone to agree that that is what is

1671
01:42:18,960 --> 01:42:21,120
Speaker 1: being done, because I do not want to be part

1672
01:42:21,160 --> 01:42:24,599
Speaker 1: of a delusion. Chelsea Manning is not a female. Chelsey

1673
01:42:24,640 --> 01:42:27,760
Speaker 1: Manning is male. If you ask me as Chelsea Manning

1674
01:42:27,800 --> 01:42:29,960
Speaker 1: male or female, the answer that I will give is

1675
01:42:30,000 --> 01:42:33,639
Speaker 1: that Chelsea Manning is male, because that is reality. This

1676
01:42:33,720 --> 01:42:37,519
Speaker 1: is not This is not a mutable characteristic. This is

1677
01:42:37,560 --> 01:42:40,679
Speaker 1: not something that changes because people would like it to change. No,

1678
01:42:40,800 --> 01:42:45,679
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, there are lines here, and I did notice it, Laurel,

1679
01:42:45,760 --> 01:42:49,080
Speaker 1: you have a keen eye on the usage of she

1680
01:42:49,640 --> 01:42:54,800
Speaker 1: instead of he to describe Bradley. I'm sorry. I did

1681
01:42:54,800 --> 01:42:57,080
Speaker 1: not mean to dead name there as they say Chelsea

1682
01:42:57,280 --> 01:43:01,920
Speaker 1: Manning in the documents. Also, just the notion that what

1683
01:43:02,120 --> 01:43:05,680
Speaker 1: just happened for me where I just mixed up the

1684
01:43:05,800 --> 01:43:07,880
Speaker 1: names for a second. Now, they may they may claim

1685
01:43:07,880 --> 01:43:11,320
Speaker 1: that dead naming is only purposeful, but this is not

1686
01:43:11,400 --> 01:43:14,280
Speaker 1: some horrible crime to refer to somebody as their previous name.

1687
01:43:14,720 --> 01:43:17,200
Speaker 1: You know, my first name is James. If someone refers

1688
01:43:17,200 --> 01:43:20,120
Speaker 1: to me as James, they're not doing something nasty and terrible.

1689
01:43:20,160 --> 01:43:22,320
Speaker 1: They're just referring to my first name, which is my

1690
01:43:22,439 --> 01:43:26,559
Speaker 1: legal name. So you know, I know that I have

1691
01:43:26,640 --> 01:43:30,519
Speaker 1: not had a transgender surgery or anything. So maybe there's

1692
01:43:30,520 --> 01:43:33,920
Speaker 1: a different there's a different focus on the usage of

1693
01:43:34,200 --> 01:43:36,720
Speaker 1: a name in that regard. But I think you see

1694
01:43:36,760 --> 01:43:40,920
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, Jimmy, You know I get all these

1695
