1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,360 Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of The Clay Travis and Buck 2 00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:07,720 Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. Welcome in everybody to the Tuesday edition 3 00:00:07,760 --> 00:00:11,440 Speaker 1: of The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show. I'm rolling 4 00:00:11,480 --> 00:00:14,680 Speaker 1: solo again today. My main man, Clay out on vacation 5 00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:17,960 Speaker 1: with the family, but given the news, I can assure 6 00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:20,680 Speaker 1: you he is very fired up to get back here 7 00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:23,040 Speaker 1: with me talking to all of you tomorrow, and he 8 00:00:23,079 --> 00:00:26,799 Speaker 1: will be. I was just last night texting with Clay 9 00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:29,400 Speaker 1: and I was saying, Oh, I'm thinking it's gonna be 10 00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:33,920 Speaker 1: a pretty quiet newsday because we talk about stories what 11 00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:36,120 Speaker 1: we're gonna talk about on the show at all hours. 12 00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:40,960 Speaker 1: And I was finishing up some notes for my little 13 00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:43,479 Speaker 1: history podcast on the Siege of Malta, which I like 14 00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:45,760 Speaker 1: to do, and then I got a text from my 15 00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:49,000 Speaker 1: friend and I can't I can't actually say what the 16 00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:51,280 Speaker 1: text said on the air, but it's somebody I know 17 00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:54,440 Speaker 1: is a brilliant legal mind who follows the happenings of 18 00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:59,440 Speaker 1: the Supreme Court very closely. There was an exclamation I 19 00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:03,360 Speaker 1: would say, where there was some colorful language with what 20 00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:08,200 Speaker 1: the heck is this Roe v. Wade looks like it 21 00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:14,560 Speaker 1: based on a draft version of a Supreme Court decision 22 00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:19,800 Speaker 1: Roe v. Wade looks like it is about to be overturned, 23 00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:24,200 Speaker 1: which I had anticipated was possible. I had thought, I 24 00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:26,119 Speaker 1: had said on this show, I thought this was going 25 00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:29,880 Speaker 1: to happen, But it wasn't supposed to be something we 26 00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:33,280 Speaker 1: would know one way or the other for weeks from now, 27 00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:38,480 Speaker 1: probably sometime in June. And yet the decision comes out early. 28 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:41,199 Speaker 1: It's not an official decision. There's so much here, my friends. 29 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:43,959 Speaker 1: There's the legality of what the politics of it, the 30 00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:49,400 Speaker 1: morality of what all this means. This is enormous in 31 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:52,680 Speaker 1: its implications for the country. We're gonna work through this 32 00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:58,040 Speaker 1: together today. It could have a major impact on the 33 00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:03,480 Speaker 1: midterm elections, could have a major impact on power in 34 00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 1: this country, which party will have it, what they do 35 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:08,840 Speaker 1: with it, And of course on life, on the fight 36 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:12,359 Speaker 1: for life first and most importantly, that has been underway 37 00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:16,640 Speaker 1: from the pro life movement for decades. Now. This isn't 38 00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:18,880 Speaker 1: the end of that fight. Even if Roe v. Wade 39 00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:20,920 Speaker 1: is overturned, as we all know, it just means that 40 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:25,399 Speaker 1: now we're on the political playing field instead of excluded 41 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:31,320 Speaker 1: from it by a disastrous Supreme Court decision. Really a 42 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:35,000 Speaker 1: couple of Supreme Court decisions planned Parenthood v. Casey included 43 00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:38,440 Speaker 1: and Roe v. Wade. So we're going to talk to 44 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:42,639 Speaker 1: Shannon Bream of Fox News, Supreme Supreme Court reporter and 45 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 1: top legal analysts over there. We'll talk to her coming 46 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:49,920 Speaker 1: up in a little bit about just the process issue. 47 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:54,680 Speaker 1: Here a leak of what it may be arguably the 48 00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 1: biggest Supreme Court decision of certainly of my lifetime. I mean, 49 00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:01,799 Speaker 1: there's a few others that would be in the running, 50 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 1: but probably the biggest one if this comes down as 51 00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 1: it is, is momentous. But you see, we're caught between 52 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 1: these different emotions right now, because on the one hand, 53 00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:20,840 Speaker 1: we have a glimpse those who believe in life in 54 00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 1: this country, those who believe in the right of unborn 55 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 1: babies to live, have a glimpse of a much better, brighter, 56 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 1: more moral, ethical future for at least a lot of 57 00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 1: the country. It's not going to change the law even 58 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 1: if this decision comes down in meaningful ways in places 59 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 1: like New York where I live in California, but in 60 00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:46,040 Speaker 1: other states, obviously, this could very well mean that the 61 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 1: state legislatures have a free hand to write the laws 62 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:54,040 Speaker 1: to legislate as they see fit on this issue to 63 00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:59,200 Speaker 1: protect life, to find what the exact codification would be 64 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 1: of when an abortion would be possible or not possible 65 00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 1: at any phase except perhaps the life of the mother 66 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:09,200 Speaker 1: at risk. But that's all what the legislature would be 67 00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 1: left to do. But there's another huge issue. On the 68 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:16,160 Speaker 1: one hand, we see we glimpse ahead and see this 69 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:21,360 Speaker 1: future of a better or more just more decent country, 70 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 1: of a country that is writing one of the greatest 71 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:27,400 Speaker 1: historical wrongs in fact in this country, which is the 72 00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:32,280 Speaker 1: abortion regime of the last fifty years. We are all 73 00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 1: on the precipice but we're not actually even at that 74 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 1: phase yet because we don't know if this will stay. 75 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:41,200 Speaker 1: And that then brings me into the politics of this. 76 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:48,119 Speaker 1: A leaked Supreme Court decision. Why did this happen, Who 77 00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:54,080 Speaker 1: did this and to what purpose? Well, it seems pretty 78 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 1: clear this was a leftist. There's no reason to leak 79 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:03,600 Speaker 1: this prematurely if you're somebody that is pro life, a conservative, 80 00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:07,039 Speaker 1: a constitutionalist, and we can talk more about what's I 81 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:11,880 Speaker 1: read the draft last night. I read the opinion five four. 82 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 1: By the way, Justice Roberts a coward exactly as I 83 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 1: had thought he would be and actually said he would 84 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:20,520 Speaker 1: be on this show on this issue. That's why I 85 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:23,600 Speaker 1: always thought it would be five four stunning. Oh it's 86 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:26,520 Speaker 1: the decency. He's always trying to protect the decency of 87 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:31,160 Speaker 1: the court, really, because the court's being undermined at its 88 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 1: foundations by the leftists that he keeps protecting from their 89 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 1: unconstitutional desires being taken away. He keeps defending, he keeps 90 00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:44,120 Speaker 1: you know, he saves Obamacare, and he was willing to 91 00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 1: save at least in part in part, the abortion regime 92 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 1: according to this draft. But the legal analysis of this 93 00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:55,560 Speaker 1: for me, which and as I said, we'll spend more 94 00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 1: time on this, this is momentous. I mean I have 95 00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 1: never lived in a non row, non planned parenthood vccy America, right, 96 00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 1: I mean there there are some people who will recall, 97 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:12,359 Speaker 1: um what it was like before then, but I do 98 00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:14,839 Speaker 1: not remember. I've never lived in a country where I 99 00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:23,159 Speaker 1: didn't have leftists and including planned parenthood, running these these 100 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:29,600 Speaker 1: horrible institutions that are taking life on a daily basis 101 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 1: for convenience. They have all these euphemisms, Oh it's for liberation, 102 00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 1: Oh it's for for equality, Oh it's for due process. 103 00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:41,960 Speaker 1: They actually pretend there's a due process component to terminating 104 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 1: a pregnancy, to killing a baby. Uh so, the the 105 00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:52,800 Speaker 1: legality of the legal argumentation is actually not very complicated. 106 00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:55,720 Speaker 1: I mean it's you go into this, it's about it's 107 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 1: close to one hundred pages the decision. But when you 108 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:01,839 Speaker 1: go into it, you and see, yeah, here's the very 109 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 1: basics of it. There's no constitutional right to abortion. This 110 00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 1: was a huge, monstrous lie, an obvious lie. There's not 111 00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:16,520 Speaker 1: a good faith case that there is a constitutional right 112 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:19,520 Speaker 1: to abortion. If there is a constitutional right to abortion, 113 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 1: I have a constitutional right to be flown to Mars 114 00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:26,160 Speaker 1: by the taxpayer. It is just absurd. It does not 115 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:32,640 Speaker 1: make any sense. But that was what we were all told, right, 116 00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:35,080 Speaker 1: that's what we went to school. We learned about this. 117 00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 1: They say, Oh, Roe v. Wade established a constitutional right 118 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:42,800 Speaker 1: to abortion. This not only did violence to tens of 119 00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:45,520 Speaker 1: millions of unborn babies, but this did violence to the 120 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 1: very concept of law itself. One of the ugliest decisions 121 00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 1: in the history of the Supreme Court, one of the 122 00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:57,480 Speaker 1: most clearly wrongly decided in the history of the Supreme Court. 123 00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:00,560 Speaker 1: So the legality of it, we could spend some time. 124 00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:02,960 Speaker 1: I'll pull a few of the excerpts for you today. 125 00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:05,000 Speaker 1: I was up late last night taking notes on it. 126 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:08,160 Speaker 1: But you know, you know the analysis all of you 127 00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 1: listening across the country. It's really rather clear. There is 128 00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:16,560 Speaker 1: no wording of the Constitution. There is no understanding of 129 00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 1: the English language, of English common law, of US history 130 00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:26,080 Speaker 1: of basic ethics. There's no understanding that you could actually 131 00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 1: apply to our legal regime before Rov Wade and come 132 00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:32,960 Speaker 1: away saying, you know what, there's a constitutional right to abortion, 133 00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:39,040 Speaker 1: constitution right. This was always flimsy leftist who are honest, 134 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:43,240 Speaker 1: even leftists, some of them legal scholars, who are very 135 00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:47,800 Speaker 1: in favor of abortion as a practice. They think it's 136 00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:49,880 Speaker 1: important for women to be able to do this. Some 137 00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:52,679 Speaker 1: have been saying I even studied under one in college, 138 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:55,560 Speaker 1: a leftist. I took a class with him. My advisor 139 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:58,560 Speaker 1: was Professor had the Archies, who was involved in drafting 140 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:02,079 Speaker 1: the Born Alive in Protection Act, which, for those who 141 00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:04,920 Speaker 1: don't know, this is my college advisor. I think this 142 00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:08,720 Speaker 1: is noteworthy just because of gives you a sense of 143 00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:15,600 Speaker 1: how extreme the law post Row was. Professor Arkey's was 144 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:19,959 Speaker 1: part of the drafting of and part of pushing a 145 00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 1: bill that would say that those who survived the abortion procedure, 146 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:26,440 Speaker 1: survived a baby outside the womban was now a just 147 00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:30,360 Speaker 1: a baby because that did happen. The left says that 148 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:33,480 Speaker 1: never happens. They're lying that did happen, that that would 149 00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:35,800 Speaker 1: be treated as a baby with full rights of a 150 00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:38,199 Speaker 1: human being. That had to be passed as a law. 151 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:40,360 Speaker 1: By the way, when Obama was in the state legislature 152 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:44,480 Speaker 1: in Chicago, he opposed the state companion built. That give 153 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 1: you a sense of, you know, where a good leftist 154 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:53,800 Speaker 1: like Obama stands on those issues. But that's how extreme 155 00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:58,040 Speaker 1: the abortion lobby and regiment became. You've seen even in 156 00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:02,280 Speaker 1: anticipation of this. There are women who are who are 157 00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:06,120 Speaker 1: walking around bragging about abortions and wearing t shirts saying, 158 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:08,199 Speaker 1: you know, abortion was the best thing and it saved 159 00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:13,680 Speaker 1: my career. It's horrifying. I mean, it's ghoulish, and it's 160 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:20,720 Speaker 1: it's deeply wrong. It's also so deeply sad, and it's 161 00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:22,920 Speaker 1: sad that as a country we have been put through 162 00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:29,000 Speaker 1: this on so many levels. It has all along eroded 163 00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:35,040 Speaker 1: faith in the true rule of law because it was absurd, 164 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:39,560 Speaker 1: because it was outrageous that this was considered a constitutional right. 165 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:44,040 Speaker 1: We're not We're not all imbeciles. They can do as 166 00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:46,319 Speaker 1: many word games as they want, and oh, it's you know, 167 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 1: the p numbers and the privacy and the due process clause, 168 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:57,560 Speaker 1: and it was all just dishonest lawyering from a movement 169 00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 1: that really started to embrace it. As you see the 170 00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:07,120 Speaker 1: demonic and go back and see what we found from 171 00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:11,360 Speaker 1: the Center for Medical Ethics and some of these these 172 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:14,720 Speaker 1: groups David de Leyden and others who have been pushing 173 00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:18,640 Speaker 1: to expose what these abortion procedures are really like. So 174 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:20,520 Speaker 1: you can see, because if you see and you know, 175 00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:25,280 Speaker 1: then you change dramatically, I think, in feeling about this 176 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:28,559 Speaker 1: as a policy. But there's also another part of it. 177 00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 1: I mean, this is it's my friends, this is momentous 178 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:35,240 Speaker 1: on so many levels, but it's the part of me 179 00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:40,840 Speaker 1: that wants to celebrate enormous progress. Knows we're not there yet. 180 00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:46,320 Speaker 1: This could still be derailed and I do believe, but 181 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:49,240 Speaker 1: that is the purpose of the leftist who leaked this. 182 00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:54,840 Speaker 1: But it also is remarkable that we're supposed to celebrate 183 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:59,680 Speaker 1: that the after fifty years and tens of millions of abortions, 184 00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:06,480 Speaker 1: finally finally constitutional sanity and basic morality and ethics have 185 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:10,760 Speaker 1: a fighting chance, have a fighting chance. We've been kept 186 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:14,560 Speaker 1: off the battlefield of ideas essentially, not entirely. Obviously we 187 00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:15,880 Speaker 1: got to this point and there have been the pro 188 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:20,439 Speaker 1: life movement, but legally speaking, legislatively, hands have been tied 189 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 1: on this. States were not allowed to legislate, States were 190 00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:28,080 Speaker 1: not allowed to come up with their own policies about this. 191 00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:30,920 Speaker 1: They were told, sorry, law the land settled, all the 192 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:34,560 Speaker 1: land constitutional right, which of course is absurd, has always 193 00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 1: been absurd, It's a lie. But now the politics of this, 194 00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:43,280 Speaker 1: I've been asking on this show, as you know, Clay 195 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:45,920 Speaker 1: and I've been discussing it for a few months now. 196 00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:51,360 Speaker 1: The Democrats are going to come up with something. I 197 00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 1: don't know what it is, but they will not just 198 00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:59,720 Speaker 1: go quietly into their mid term annihilation. They will not 199 00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:03,600 Speaker 1: that they've been wrong on so many things, and also 200 00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:07,040 Speaker 1: they were not going to go quietly on this particular issue. 201 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:10,440 Speaker 1: You see, it's now all coming together. What are they 202 00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:13,400 Speaker 1: going to try to do in order to get base turnout? 203 00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:15,680 Speaker 1: How are they going to try to maintain their grip 204 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:21,520 Speaker 1: on power given that we're in a period of high inflation, 205 00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:25,720 Speaker 1: weak economy, wide open borders, high crime, all these things 206 00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:32,760 Speaker 1: all traceable too bad Democrat policymaking. So what was the plan? 207 00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:35,480 Speaker 1: How are they going to make the pitch? It just 208 00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:38,640 Speaker 1: didn't seem possible for them to do it based on 209 00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:42,200 Speaker 1: the merits, based on results. With this leak of the 210 00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 1: Supreme Court draft, you see what the Democrat strategy is 211 00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:53,199 Speaker 1: for this year, for twenty twenty two, and it is treachery. 212 00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:59,120 Speaker 1: Treachery against the very foundations of our legal injustice system, 213 00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:03,560 Speaker 1: treachery against the basic faith that we can have that 214 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:06,880 Speaker 1: when the system doesn't necessarily give you what you want, 215 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:10,400 Speaker 1: there are still principles in place where you respect that 216 00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:15,120 Speaker 1: legal and political system. Now we see the plan is treachery, friends, 217 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:17,319 Speaker 1: and that's what you have to be ready for, because 218 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:20,520 Speaker 1: it is going to get much worse. I can assure 219 00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:25,080 Speaker 1: you of it. Look switching gears here, this audience has 220 00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:29,120 Speaker 1: embraced the value of Pure Talk for our cell phone service. 221 00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:30,880 Speaker 1: We've told you how much we love it. But let 222 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:32,960 Speaker 1: me tell you what David and New York says he 223 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:35,720 Speaker 1: was very hesitant about changing from Verizon to Pure Talk 224 00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 1: and then was shocked to learn the exact same plan 225 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:40,360 Speaker 1: he had with Verizon for one hundred and seventy dollars 226 00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:43,840 Speaker 1: would cost forty nine dollars with Pure Talk. That's a 227 00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:47,480 Speaker 1: seventy percent decrease in his monthly cell phone bill.

Massive News as the authenticated leak 238 00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:33,160 Speaker 1: of a pending Supreme Court decision on rov that would 239 00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:40,120 Speaker 1: overturn if the five four breakdown stands would overturn Roe v. Wade, 240 00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:44,320 Speaker 1: would overturn Planned Parenthood v. Casey. What happened here in 241 00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:48,880 Speaker 1: this process, and as importantly, where does it go from here? 242 00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:51,720 Speaker 1: We're joined by Shannon Bream Right now Fox News is 243 00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:55,760 Speaker 1: Supreme Court legal analyst. Shannon, Thanks so much for making 244 00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:59,720 Speaker 1: some time for us today always up. So let's start 245 00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:04,440 Speaker 1: with if how big of a breach of the system 246 00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:08,000 Speaker 1: and of trust is this from within the Supreme Court. 247 00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:11,800 Speaker 1: Because only a few people have access to this, it's exceptional. 248 00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:14,560 Speaker 1: I mean, it is really devastating to the integrity of 249 00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:16,880 Speaker 1: the court. You know, we finally have the Chief Justice 250 00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:19,160 Speaker 1: way in and you can see from his statement he 251 00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:20,840 Speaker 1: wants to make clear that Discord is going to go 252 00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:24,200 Speaker 1: about its business. He very rarely puts out a statement, 253 00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:28,040 Speaker 1: but he always does with the flavor of it that 254 00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:29,920 Speaker 1: we're not going to be stopped from doing what we do. 255 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:32,160 Speaker 1: We're not going to be intimidated or harassed. We're going 256 00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:34,080 Speaker 1: to keep on with that. But he also vowed at 257 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:36,080 Speaker 1: the end, like listen, I've got some marshals to start 258 00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:38,960 Speaker 1: this league investigation, and I think it will be the 259 00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:41,640 Speaker 1: highest priority for him to get answers on exactly how 260 00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:44,400 Speaker 1: this happened. It is exceptionally unusual for this to happen 261 00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:47,440 Speaker 1: in DC, where everything leaks just about except for the 262 00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:52,160 Speaker 1: Supreme Court. Until last night. Now I saw the Chief 263 00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:56,480 Speaker 1: Justice Roberts put out the statement calling for not just 264 00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:59,800 Speaker 1: the investigation, but assigning the marshal of the Supreme Court 265 00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:03,200 Speaker 1: too investigate this or to run an investigation of it. 266 00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:07,200 Speaker 1: Is there a you know, what could be the consequences 267 00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:11,440 Speaker 1: here for the leaker? Is there a criminal statute that's 268 00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:14,879 Speaker 1: at play? Or would it only be professional sanction, say 269 00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:19,280 Speaker 1: disbarment that would be involved here if we do find 270 00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:22,159 Speaker 1: out who leaked this. Gosh, I've seen a ton of 271 00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:24,920 Speaker 1: discussion about this. Is there because it's such a rare 272 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:28,080 Speaker 1: exceptional case. Is there a criminal penalty? Is this, as 273 00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:30,600 Speaker 1: you said, going to be an ethical or moral situation? 274 00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:32,919 Speaker 1: I think the person's absolutely going to get fired. If 275 00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:35,320 Speaker 1: they're a lawyer, I think disbarment is in their future. 276 00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:38,199 Speaker 1: But there's really not a consensus on whether or not 277 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:40,240 Speaker 1: this is a crime. Now, listen, if it was a hack, 278 00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:43,720 Speaker 1: if somebody hacked into the system over there, that's a 279 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:46,679 Speaker 1: different situation than say, somebody took a hard copy and 280 00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:50,120 Speaker 1: snuck it out and violated every personnel agreement they would 281 00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:52,320 Speaker 1: have had over there. You know, there are those out 282 00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:56,000 Speaker 1: there saying there is a possible wave of criminal liability 283 00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,480 Speaker 1: that could come with this based on how the documents 284 00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:00,600 Speaker 1: were obtained. So I think until we get to the 285 00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:03,199 Speaker 1: bottom of that, we just don't know I think it 286 00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:05,920 Speaker 1: is professional suicide for somebody to have done this, But 287 00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:08,439 Speaker 1: you know, the left is cheering. We see the tweets 288 00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:10,200 Speaker 1: and people out there who are saying, like, bravo to 289 00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:13,320 Speaker 1: this person who decided to essentially burn the place down. 290 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:16,479 Speaker 1: So that makes me think I wouldn't be surprised if 291 00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:19,280 Speaker 1: this person maybe else themselves at that point and becomes 292 00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:20,800 Speaker 1: sort of a hero on the left. Oh. I think 293 00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:23,480 Speaker 1: they may be disbarred and then get a big contract 294 00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:25,639 Speaker 1: for a book and an MSNBC deal. I mean, I 295 00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:29,320 Speaker 1: think that the left will take care of this zealot 296 00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:32,359 Speaker 1: and the treachery involved here will be rewarded, just maybe 297 00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:34,399 Speaker 1: not for a little while. We're speaking to Shannon Bream, 298 00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:40,159 Speaker 1: Fox News's chief legal analyst for the Supreme Court. Shannon, Now, 299 00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:43,360 Speaker 1: where does this go? Because even trying to just discuss 300 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:46,639 Speaker 1: the news today analyze this work through it. They're on 301 00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:48,920 Speaker 1: the one hand, there's a sense and if you're listening 302 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:52,240 Speaker 1: to people who work at Planned Parenthodor Joe Biden, the Democrats, 303 00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:57,240 Speaker 1: that Roe is probably gone, but it's not gone yet. 304 00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:00,359 Speaker 1: Clearly there is the possibility that this was meant to 305 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:04,880 Speaker 1: be Pressure from the outside now with the League to 306 00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:07,800 Speaker 1: try to change the five four decision in the the direction. 307 00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:10,960 Speaker 1: So how does that? I mean, do we know? To me, 308 00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:13,240 Speaker 1: it seems pretty obvious. I think your friend and colleague 309 00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 1: Any McCarthy even tweeted this out. Our friend Annie McCarthy 310 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:19,679 Speaker 1: tweeted this out that they should put the decision out 311 00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:22,800 Speaker 1: right away now, that letting this linger is a terrible idea. 312 00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:25,439 Speaker 1: Do we know how that's going to go? Well? I mean, 313 00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:27,080 Speaker 1: I thought it was interesting the Chief set in his 314 00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:29,080 Speaker 1: statement today this will not affect the way that we 315 00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:31,440 Speaker 1: do our work here at the Court. It's a very 316 00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 1: methodical process. That opinion that we now has been verified 317 00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:36,879 Speaker 1: by the Court. It was an actual draft out in 318 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:39,240 Speaker 1: early February. You know, that works its way around and 319 00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:41,320 Speaker 1: then people can write their descents or decided to write 320 00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:45,000 Speaker 1: a concurrence to that. It's a very long process and 321 00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:47,280 Speaker 1: in something of this import, it is going to be 322 00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:50,199 Speaker 1: handled very delicately. There are those who say, yeah, we 323 00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:53,840 Speaker 1: need to get this out now because the conservative justices 324 00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:56,199 Speaker 1: who are planning to sign on to or have signed 325 00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:59,440 Speaker 1: on and if not changed their votes will see they 326 00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:01,399 Speaker 1: feel that they're there's a threat to those people right now, 327 00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 1: and it's not a safe situation for them. But I 328 00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:07,640 Speaker 1: also think that there's no way if the Chief thinks 329 00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:09,760 Speaker 1: this thing is, you know, not ready for prime time, 330 00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:12,400 Speaker 1: that it's going to be thrown together, patchwork and thrown out. 331 00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:15,000 Speaker 1: It's just too important of a decision for that. I 332 00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:18,679 Speaker 1: think probably he said, Okay, it is time. Let's get 333 00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:21,680 Speaker 1: these descents and concurrences done. Clear your schedule of anything 334 00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:23,280 Speaker 1: else you're working on, because this has got to get 335 00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:25,560 Speaker 1: out the door. That said he's not going to rush 336 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:28,560 Speaker 1: something he doesn't think is a finished product. But I 337 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:32,040 Speaker 1: think we're going to get them that opinion earlier than 338 00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:34,000 Speaker 1: we would have, which would probably have been late June. 339 00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:37,399 Speaker 1: It's sort of like Justice Brier's retirement that leaked, that 340 00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:39,600 Speaker 1: sped that process up quite a bit. There's been a 341 00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:41,159 Speaker 1: lot of leaks from the court this year. And you 342 00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:43,879 Speaker 1: think about mask Gate, when we were told that, you know, 343 00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:46,359 Speaker 1: Justice Sodomyer had asked everybody to wear a mask in 344 00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:48,680 Speaker 1: Justice Corsage has refused, and there was this big fight 345 00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:51,000 Speaker 1: and I quickly found out that was not true. Then 346 00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:53,879 Speaker 1: we suddenly get these statements from Justices cour Such and 347 00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:56,879 Speaker 1: Sodomyer and then the Chief Justice as well. So this 348 00:20:56,920 --> 00:20:58,480 Speaker 1: has not been a fun term for him or any 349 00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:00,600 Speaker 1: of these justices over there, who I think all of 350 00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:03,360 Speaker 1: them desperately care about the integrity of the court. Shannon, 351 00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:06,840 Speaker 1: to that end, about the integrity of the court, do 352 00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:12,520 Speaker 1: you think that there is any realistic possibility that they 353 00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:15,800 Speaker 1: will somehow flip the number between now and when it's 354 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:19,840 Speaker 1: official or is that do you think it's recognized by 355 00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:23,520 Speaker 1: all within the court, all nine justices that were that 356 00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:27,719 Speaker 1: to happen, the credibility of the institution itself would be 357 00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:30,440 Speaker 1: in tatters. But given the stakes with this issue, I'm 358 00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:32,680 Speaker 1: just wondering, do you think, in the back of your 359 00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:35,040 Speaker 1: mind is that possible? Could we actually have a different 360 00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:38,760 Speaker 1: outcome here than what the draft indicates? Well, we could 361 00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:40,800 Speaker 1: only because that could have changed in the last two 362 00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:43,119 Speaker 1: months as they send these drafts back and forth. I mean, 363 00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:45,200 Speaker 1: the votes could have changed, the language of the opinion 364 00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:47,600 Speaker 1: could have changed at some point. For sure, that's what 365 00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:50,480 Speaker 1: happens with the drafts. But if there were five people 366 00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:52,920 Speaker 1: at least, if you think it was it was labeled, 367 00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:54,520 Speaker 1: you know, opinion of the Court, which means it was 368 00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:56,560 Speaker 1: the majority, that there were five votes at some point, 369 00:21:56,960 --> 00:22:00,400 Speaker 1: I think if those people are standing by where they 370 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:03,440 Speaker 1: had voted. If anything, this would toughen their resolve. Would 371 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:06,040 Speaker 1: be my guests that they don't want to any of 372 00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:08,119 Speaker 1: them liberals or conservatives over there on the Court, and 373 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:10,439 Speaker 1: they don't even like to be classified as such. But 374 00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:12,159 Speaker 1: I don't think any of them want to look like 375 00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:14,480 Speaker 1: they can be bullied or that they can be harassed 376 00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:17,080 Speaker 1: in a way that changes their vote. Think about the 377 00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:20,080 Speaker 1: impact of that. So, if anything, I think you've probably 378 00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:23,240 Speaker 1: solidified those who were going to vote conservatively on this. 379 00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:25,919 Speaker 1: If those five still hang together, I think after the 380 00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:28,600 Speaker 1: publication of this draft, they're going to be even more 381 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:30,879 Speaker 1: resolute about doing that and putting their names on it. 382 00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:37,640 Speaker 1: Speaking of Shannon Bream, Fox News is Supreme Court legal analyst, Shannon, 383 00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:42,080 Speaker 1: I gotta ask, do you think that there's a chance 384 00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:48,119 Speaker 1: here that this could push some major political shift. I 385 00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:49,679 Speaker 1: know we're kind of stepping a little bit away from 386 00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:51,520 Speaker 1: a legal side of it, but you know, now you're 387 00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:54,720 Speaker 1: hearing Joe Biden saying, well, there should be a legislative 388 00:22:54,720 --> 00:23:00,560 Speaker 1: codification of the rights in Row and and in Plan 389 00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:03,320 Speaker 1: Parent or v. Casey, because because what do you believe 390 00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:06,239 Speaker 1: the purpose was of the league? Well, that's the thing. 391 00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:08,199 Speaker 1: If you think that the leading theory is that this 392 00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:11,480 Speaker 1: was to change the outcome, or change votes, or put 393 00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:14,919 Speaker 1: public pressure on the Quarter specific justices, then all of 394 00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:18,920 Speaker 1: that would make sense. We already have politicians out there saying, well, 395 00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:20,920 Speaker 1: of course it's time to blow up the filibuster. We 396 00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:24,360 Speaker 1: heard that in the past about different packages and things 397 00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:26,480 Speaker 1: they were trying to get pass through the Hill. Senator 398 00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:29,520 Speaker 1: Mansion and Senator Cinema were very clear they weren't on 399 00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:32,280 Speaker 1: board with that. But already those sound bites are now 400 00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:34,560 Speaker 1: flowing today saying we've got to do this, We've got 401 00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:36,360 Speaker 1: to blow up the filibuster so that we can codify 402 00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:39,560 Speaker 1: ROW at the federal level. I also just got to 403 00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:42,200 Speaker 1: press release about packing the Quarter adding seats to the court. 404 00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:45,080 Speaker 1: So I mean, all of those political drum beats are 405 00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:48,240 Speaker 1: very quickly following on the heels of this league. Shannon 406 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:51,600 Speaker 1: Bream a Fox News, Shannon, always appreciate your perspective and expertise. 407 00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:55,240 Speaker 1: Thanks for being with us. Good to be with you back. Look, 408 00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:58,920 Speaker 1: we've talked about pain on this program before. Chronic pain, Man, 409 00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:03,159 Speaker 1: it can really rough things up. Our sponsor relief factor 410 00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:06,360 Speaker 1: makes a really effective product for people who are suffering 411 00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:09,639 Speaker 1: with everyday pain can really help. Gary and Ohio shared 412 00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:12,359 Speaker 1: some feedback on how relief Factor helped to him. After 413 00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:15,199 Speaker 1: just a few weeks, Gary's knee pain was completely gone 414 00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:18,480 Speaker 1: and the shoulder and back pain were reduced quite a bit. Now, 415 00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:21,920 Speaker 1: Gary reports he can exercise much more comfortably and almost 416 00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:25,480 Speaker 1: pain free.

You name it like Gary's nee pain, which 421 00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:42,040 Speaker 1: by the way, is significantly reduced thanks to relief Factor. 422 00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:44,760 Speaker 1: Hundreds of thousands of people of ordered relief Factor, about 423 00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:47,800 Speaker 1: seventy percent of them go on to order more join them. 424 00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:49,880 Speaker 1: More than half a million people order the three week 425 00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:53,879 Speaker 1: quickstart for only nineteen ninety five.

We also 434 00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:29,760 Speaker 1: see uncertainly about oil prices up and down, etc. And 435 00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:31,920 Speaker 1: so you know, as I've said earlier, so which is 436 00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:36,000 Speaker 1: brew and the probability of a recession is I think, unfortunately, 437 00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:39,680 Speaker 1: very very high because of the other challengers trying to 438 00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:43,760 Speaker 1: get this growing intuation under control and having so few 439 00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:46,399 Speaker 1: tools to do it and so little ability to control 440 00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:49,120 Speaker 1: the supply side of the economy. That was the former 441 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:55,399 Speaker 1: chairman of the FED saying our recession is almost inevitable. 442 00:25:56,280 --> 00:25:59,280 Speaker 1: That's not good. Let's talk to Stephen Moore, now former 443 00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:02,600 Speaker 1: economic wiser to President Trump, co founder of the Committee 444 00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:05,880 Speaker 1: to Unleash Prosperity, and a senior economist at Freedom Work. 445 00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:08,560 Speaker 1: We promised we'd have him for yesterday. We've gotten feiter. Hey, Steve, 446 00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:12,480 Speaker 1: thanks for being with us. I could hear you yesterday. 447 00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:17,399 Speaker 1: It's to be on the show. And uh, you know, 448 00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:19,600 Speaker 1: I do think, by the way, that we still have 449 00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:23,640 Speaker 1: a chance at um stopping a recession, but we better 450 00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:26,240 Speaker 1: start getting going pretty soon. And we gotta we got 451 00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:29,080 Speaker 1: to stop the massive trillions of dollars of spending that 452 00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:32,119 Speaker 1: are going on in Washington. Uh, that is that is 453 00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:34,520 Speaker 1: the match that left this forest fire. So when I 454 00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:38,600 Speaker 1: hear Chucky Schumer and uh, you know, Nancy Pelosi and say, oh, 455 00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:41,840 Speaker 1: we to have more spending, more taxes, I just want 456 00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:45,000 Speaker 1: to pull how much of this do you think can 457 00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:48,720 Speaker 1: be reasonably set? Uh? You know, if we're going to 458 00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:51,560 Speaker 1: be fair minded about this, how much of what we're 459 00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:55,240 Speaker 1: seeing right now is a result of what the Biden 460 00:26:55,359 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 1: Democrats have done in the last fifteen months or so. Well, 461 00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:02,119 Speaker 1: I'll give you a number. You're not going to believe this, 462 00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:03,800 Speaker 1: but you can look it up because it happens to 463 00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:06,720 Speaker 1: be true. So when Trump left office, Buck, do you 464 00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:08,440 Speaker 1: want to take a guess of what the inflation rate 465 00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:13,000 Speaker 1: was in the US economy ary in January twenty twenty one? 466 00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:16,720 Speaker 1: One point eight percent? You're pretty close. One point five 467 00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:20,919 Speaker 1: not bad buster, Okay, pretty good? So think about that now. 468 00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:23,800 Speaker 1: But think about that, really, one point five percent in 469 00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:26,679 Speaker 1: January twenty twenty one, and here we are, what fourteen 470 00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:29,159 Speaker 1: fifteen months later, we're eight and a half percent. I mean, 471 00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:31,679 Speaker 1: how do you screw things up that quickly? I mean, 472 00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:34,840 Speaker 1: I wouldn't have thought it was possible. So, yeah, this 473 00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:37,720 Speaker 1: is a result of the massive You know, they spent 474 00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:41,119 Speaker 1: three trillion dollars above the normal budget. Remember they had 475 00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:44,320 Speaker 1: to build back well we by the way, can you 476 00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:46,359 Speaker 1: imagine if they had passed that five trillion dollars to 477 00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:49,320 Speaker 1: build back better bill? Thank God for Joe Manson. My god, 478 00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:52,320 Speaker 1: we have eighteen percent inflation right now we've passed that bill. 479 00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:56,320 Speaker 1: How much worse do you think inflation is gonna get 480 00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:58,720 Speaker 1: over let's say, the next six months or so, because 481 00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:01,359 Speaker 1: even if it stays at the current level, it's clearly 482 00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:05,080 Speaker 1: a major liability for Democrats in the mid terms. But 483 00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:06,960 Speaker 1: I've heard from people. We look, we just had the 484 00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:11,560 Speaker 1: former Fed Vice chair as a SoundBite saying that a 485 00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:16,480 Speaker 1: recession is almost inevitable. Between that and the possibility of 486 00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:19,280 Speaker 1: inflation going even a little bit higher, it feels like 487 00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:23,680 Speaker 1: we're heading into rough times here, Steve. I look, as 488 00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:25,920 Speaker 1: I said earlier, I still think it's not too late 489 00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:29,120 Speaker 1: to turn around this Titanic before it's the Iceberg. But 490 00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:32,440 Speaker 1: I'm not seeing any moves in Washington that are moving 491 00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:34,480 Speaker 1: us that way. I mean, when you have Chuck Schumer 492 00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:37,400 Speaker 1: say we're going to raise taxes on the oil companies. 493 00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:40,440 Speaker 1: How's that explain that one to me? Buck? So we're 494 00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:42,280 Speaker 1: going to increase the tax on your old companies and 495 00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:44,760 Speaker 1: that's going to reduce the old prices. Yeah, I actually 496 00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:49,240 Speaker 1: was wondering what even is the argument that Chuck Schumer 497 00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:51,480 Speaker 1: thinks he is making. I often have to frame this 498 00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:53,440 Speaker 1: for Democrats because they say things they say, well, how 499 00:28:53,520 --> 00:28:56,680 Speaker 1: is that even supposed to work? I can't explain it. 500 00:28:56,720 --> 00:28:58,920 Speaker 1: It's inexplicable. And then you know, and then you have 501 00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:02,240 Speaker 1: this talk about, you know, one and a half trillion 502 00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:06,560 Speaker 1: dollars of student loan quote forgiveness, and I have that 503 00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:09,160 Speaker 1: in air quotes because you know when they say forgiveness 504 00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:10,760 Speaker 1: as means you and I are gonna have to pay 505 00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:12,840 Speaker 1: that and the taxpayer as well. We're gonna have another 506 00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:16,080 Speaker 1: trillion to delost to the debt. We've got to bring 507 00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:19,120 Speaker 1: spending out. I want to be very clear on this 508 00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:20,720 Speaker 1: for your listeners. When you have eight and a half 509 00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:23,360 Speaker 1: percent inflation, remember we saw that report that came out 510 00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:25,600 Speaker 1: last week that showed negative growth for the first quarter 511 00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:29,640 Speaker 1: of the economy. The denominal growth, you know, before inflation 512 00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:31,920 Speaker 1: need the growth was pretty good. It was a pretty 513 00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:34,880 Speaker 1: good number. It was like six percent. But you've got 514 00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 1: to get the eight and a half percent just to 515 00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:38,440 Speaker 1: stay even. You know what I mean, when you've got 516 00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:40,320 Speaker 1: an eight and a half percent inflation rate. So if 517 00:29:40,320 --> 00:29:42,360 Speaker 1: you've got a five or six percent pay raise, which 518 00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:45,200 Speaker 1: a lot of workers are getting, you're falling behind, right, 519 00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:48,560 Speaker 1: You're falling behind the inflation rate. When you're seeing what's 520 00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:50,960 Speaker 1: happened with the stock market. April was the worst month 521 00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:54,920 Speaker 1: for the stock market in many, many years. And that 522 00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:57,080 Speaker 1: was just in nominal terms. You know, when you take 523 00:29:57,120 --> 00:29:59,080 Speaker 1: into account inflation, because when you make an investment, you 524 00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:01,880 Speaker 1: want you want to make sure your investment returns are 525 00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:04,440 Speaker 1: keeping face with inflation. That's not happening. So we're in 526 00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:07,840 Speaker 1: a very precarious position right now, and until we get 527 00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:11,200 Speaker 1: that inflation rate down, we're not going to see much improvement. 528 00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:14,560 Speaker 1: Speaking to Stephen More, former economic advisor to President Trump 529 00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:18,440 Speaker 1: and a senior economist at Freedom Works, what does it 530 00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:22,200 Speaker 1: mean if if interest rates start to normalize, more of 531 00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:24,200 Speaker 1: interest rates keep going up, how is that going to 532 00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:27,960 Speaker 1: affect this picture? Well, by way, let me just use 533 00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:31,200 Speaker 1: an analogy, because I think this is really such a 534 00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:33,160 Speaker 1: critical point. You know, when talking about this eight and 535 00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:36,040 Speaker 1: a half percent inflation. You know, imagine when you get 536 00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:37,640 Speaker 1: up in the morning, Buck, I know, you go right 537 00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:39,880 Speaker 1: to the to the fitness center and you get on 538 00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:44,320 Speaker 1: that on that machine that you know rolls around. You 539 00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:47,520 Speaker 1: jag on the on the machine. Well, let's say you're 540 00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:49,880 Speaker 1: jagging at seven miles per hour, which is a pretty 541 00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:52,760 Speaker 1: good pace, but the machine is rolling at eight and 542 00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:55,360 Speaker 1: a half miles per hour. You're going to follow a 543 00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:57,760 Speaker 1: flat on your face, right, And that's kind of what's 544 00:30:57,800 --> 00:31:01,320 Speaker 1: happening with this economy we've got. We've got the rollers 545 00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:04,800 Speaker 1: going so fast because of inflation that nobody can keep 546 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:08,040 Speaker 1: up with it. And now you are quite correct that 547 00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:11,160 Speaker 1: the that is going to take some corrective action. In fact, 548 00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:13,160 Speaker 1: they may act as soon as today. I don't know 549 00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:14,880 Speaker 1: exactly when they're going to make their move, but it 550 00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:18,040 Speaker 1: will be very soon, and that will be as many 551 00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:20,360 Speaker 1: as fifty basis points. So they'll raise the interest rates 552 00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:24,680 Speaker 1: by half a percentage point. It's about time. It's about 553 00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:26,479 Speaker 1: I've been saying. I think I said this on your 554 00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:28,960 Speaker 1: show six months ago. They should be raising rates and 555 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:31,720 Speaker 1: so they've been way behind the curve and inflation and 556 00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:35,160 Speaker 1: to use another analogy, it's like a cancer cell in 557 00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:38,240 Speaker 1: your body. As soon as you're detected with cancer, God forbid, 558 00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:40,120 Speaker 1: you got to take that out right. You got to 559 00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:43,400 Speaker 1: get rid of those cancer cells. You can't let them metastasize. 560 00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:45,680 Speaker 1: And that's what we're doing with inflation. We're not doing 561 00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:47,840 Speaker 1: anything about it. It's getting worse and worse and worse, 562 00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:50,360 Speaker 1: and it is going to kill the economy if it continues. 563 00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:54,840 Speaker 1: Is there anybody in this administration who you think, and 564 00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:57,320 Speaker 1: you know I'm talking about cabinet officials and talking about Yellen, 565 00:31:57,720 --> 00:32:00,720 Speaker 1: you know, Janet Yellen who gets it and might try 566 00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:03,880 Speaker 1: to steer things more in the right direction. Because if 567 00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:06,920 Speaker 1: we're relying on Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and Jen Saki 568 00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:11,600 Speaker 1: to make macroeconomic decisions, it's it's time to head for 569 00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:15,680 Speaker 1: the bunker. You're exactly right. So you know, I'm a Republican, 570 00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:17,840 Speaker 1: I'll admit that, you know, and I don't always love 571 00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:21,000 Speaker 1: the Republicans by any means, but but I have to 572 00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:23,000 Speaker 1: give people like Bill Kick credit. You know, he had 573 00:32:23,080 --> 00:32:26,080 Speaker 1: Bob Rubin, Remember Bob Rubin, He was his treasure secretary. 574 00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:28,560 Speaker 1: And Bob Rubin was a very sound minded guy. I 575 00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:31,320 Speaker 1: didn't always agree with him, but he understood you gotta 576 00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:33,720 Speaker 1: keep your deficits under control. You've got to have a 577 00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:37,480 Speaker 1: good economy. There's no Robert Rubin in this administration. I 578 00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:42,080 Speaker 1: am so disappointed with Janet Yellen. I mean so disappointed. 579 00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:44,680 Speaker 1: She's gone completely woke on us. She seems to have 580 00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:47,680 Speaker 1: forgotten all the good economics she learned when you know, 581 00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:50,880 Speaker 1: when she was head of the American Economic Association and 582 00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:54,000 Speaker 1: so on, and it's all become political with her. So 583 00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:56,480 Speaker 1: I hate to say this, Buck, but I can't point 584 00:32:56,520 --> 00:33:01,640 Speaker 1: to a single person in this administration who understands the 585 00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:05,320 Speaker 1: basics of running a business, run running an economy. They're 586 00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:07,400 Speaker 1: just not there. I mean, Pete bautisac come on, I 587 00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:09,720 Speaker 1: mean think about this. You've got a transportation sectory who 588 00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:12,080 Speaker 1: knows nothing about transportation. You get a health secretary knows 589 00:33:12,080 --> 00:33:14,200 Speaker 1: nothing about health. You got a commerce sector and never 590 00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:17,080 Speaker 1: run a business. You get an energy secretary who is 591 00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:19,960 Speaker 1: who you know is a former governor who knows nothing. 592 00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:21,880 Speaker 1: I mean, this is the remember of the Saturday Night 593 00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:24,880 Speaker 1: Live ready not ready for prime time players? Uh, well, 594 00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:27,080 Speaker 1: this is the that's what we have in the Biden administration. 595 00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:29,160 Speaker 1: They're not ready for prime time players. And if I 596 00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:32,719 Speaker 1: were advising Biden, I'd say bring some people into this 597 00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:36,360 Speaker 1: administration who knows something about how to run a business, 598 00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:40,120 Speaker 1: how to make a payroll, and how to run an economy. 599 00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:42,120 Speaker 1: Because I don't I hate to say this, I don't 600 00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:43,760 Speaker 1: see any do you, Buck? I mean, who who do 601 00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:46,480 Speaker 1: you turn? No, I was wondering. You know you're you're 602 00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:48,080 Speaker 1: the economist, so I'm said you're one. I mean, you 603 00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:50,600 Speaker 1: gotta know you've got a friend named friend named Bob 604 00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:52,800 Speaker 1: or Tom or something who works at Treasury, who's up 605 00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:55,080 Speaker 1: high and can actually make some good things happen. Because 606 00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:57,880 Speaker 1: I know the players in this White House and they're 607 00:33:57,880 --> 00:33:59,560 Speaker 1: not going to get it done. And so I got 608 00:33:59,560 --> 00:34:01,680 Speaker 1: a safety. You're not making me feel any better about 609 00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:04,200 Speaker 1: the economic future we've got for the next six months. Well, 610 00:34:04,280 --> 00:34:06,840 Speaker 1: you know, I'll quote my buddy Larry Cudlow, you know Larry, 611 00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:09,320 Speaker 1: of course, and Larry says it very well. The cavalry 612 00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:10,840 Speaker 1: is coming. I mean, people are sat up with this. 613 00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:13,439 Speaker 1: The question is whether we Yeah, but is it coming 614 00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:15,360 Speaker 1: in three years? Steven? I mean that's really you know, 615 00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:18,480 Speaker 1: that's a ways for a lot of economic pain. Can 616 00:34:18,480 --> 00:34:21,000 Speaker 1: happen in the next three years, and to that end, 617 00:34:21,239 --> 00:34:24,120 Speaker 1: the Republicans going into this midterm to make sure the 618 00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:27,640 Speaker 1: cavalry can come. To continue with the analogy for a second, 619 00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:31,520 Speaker 1: what should be their primary economic message? I mean, you know, 620 00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:33,680 Speaker 1: obviously things are bad, we know that, we talked about 621 00:34:33,680 --> 00:34:35,600 Speaker 1: that on the show every day. With inflation and a 622 00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:38,960 Speaker 1: whole range of economic issues. What should Republicans say they 623 00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:42,239 Speaker 1: would do differently, Well, get back to the get back 624 00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:45,080 Speaker 1: to the Trump policies. I mean, look, I didn't always 625 00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:47,320 Speaker 1: agree with Trump's behavior. I didn't agree with some of 626 00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:49,480 Speaker 1: the things he did on the election and you know, 627 00:34:49,719 --> 00:34:53,319 Speaker 1: that kind of stuff. But his policies, just his policies 628 00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:57,840 Speaker 1: on deregulating the economy, getting tough with China, promoting American energy, 629 00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:00,920 Speaker 1: We're reducing taxes to make American more efficient, you know, 630 00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:03,920 Speaker 1: getting tough on crime. All of those policies were very 631 00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:06,160 Speaker 1: common sectical. I can't tell you how many times people 632 00:35:06,160 --> 00:35:08,000 Speaker 1: come up to me, even Democrats, say, you know, I 633 00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:10,600 Speaker 1: didn't like Trump very much, but I like what he did. 634 00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:14,200 Speaker 1: If I liked his policies, so why can't I really 635 00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:17,080 Speaker 1: honestly believe this is why I'm so frustrated right now, Buck, 636 00:35:17,360 --> 00:35:19,640 Speaker 1: if Trump were president today, the accounty we would be 637 00:35:19,680 --> 00:35:24,960 Speaker 1: absolutely booming. I mean, I agree, So I just you know, 638 00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:26,759 Speaker 1: I hope, I hope we can set this or start 639 00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:28,479 Speaker 1: to set this right. Coming up in the mid terms, 640 00:35:29,160 --> 00:35:32,800 Speaker 1: Stephen Moore, everybody go check out his stuff at Freedom Works. 641 00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:36,440 Speaker 1: Steven always appreciate it. Thanks for calling in. Thanks Buck anytime. 642 00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:40,759 Speaker 1: Take care. Talking a lot about the economy, and you 643 00:35:40,840 --> 00:35:42,320 Speaker 1: don't want to wait. You just heard him say, you 644 00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:44,560 Speaker 1: know rates are going to be going up. Things are 645 00:35:44,560 --> 00:35:48,800 Speaker 1: going to be rocky. If you haven't refinance your mortgage yet. 646 00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:52,000 Speaker 1: Now is the time because those interest rate hikes are 647 00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:54,400 Speaker 1: coming and that news can come out as soon as 648 00:35:54,400 --> 00:35:56,400 Speaker 1: today or tomorrow. So if you wait much longer, it's 649 00:35:56,440 --> 00:35:58,120 Speaker 1: going to cost you money, perhaps a lot of money. 650 00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:00,719 Speaker 1: You're gonna miss out on significant savings. Don't let that happen. 651 00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:04,279 Speaker 1: Take ten minutes right now, find out what your options are. 652 00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:06,239 Speaker 1: You can get a free mortgage of view from the 653 00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:09,320 Speaker 1: folks at American Financing.

I promise you, Bill, I want to 683 00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:51,560 Speaker 1: ask you first because, and we played some audio from 684 00:37:51,560 --> 00:37:55,080 Speaker 1: I said back in October on this issue specifically of Row, 685 00:37:55,760 --> 00:37:58,759 Speaker 1: you will see a ferocity and an underhandedness that will 686 00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:02,759 Speaker 1: surprise a lot of people about the left unless you 687 00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:06,160 Speaker 1: were watching the Cavanaugh thing closely. I mean, just on this, 688 00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:09,000 Speaker 1: I've been calling a treachery on this leak of a 689 00:38:09,040 --> 00:38:12,239 Speaker 1: Supreme Court document of this magnitude. What do you see 690 00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:15,840 Speaker 1: going on here? Well, you're one hundred percent correct. Zealots 691 00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:19,839 Speaker 1: on the far left. This is one of their key 692 00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:27,160 Speaker 1: issues and they don't want any intrusion ever on abortion. Nothing. 693 00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:31,000 Speaker 1: So you get a headache a half hour before you're 694 00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:34,879 Speaker 1: supposed to give birth, you can abort the baby. That's 695 00:38:34,920 --> 00:38:39,240 Speaker 1: what they say. And when it looked like the Supreme 696 00:38:39,280 --> 00:38:43,919 Speaker 1: Court was going to limit abortion, somebody leaked it out. 697 00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:47,320 Speaker 1: Now it's up to the FBI to really find that person. 698 00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:53,400 Speaker 1: Do I have any confidence that will be a robust investigation. No, 699 00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:59,279 Speaker 1: I don't. But for us in America, who want the 700 00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:04,160 Speaker 1: best for every American, including pro choice people, I think 701 00:39:04,239 --> 00:39:08,319 Speaker 1: that everyone needs to calm down. So it looks to 702 00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:12,360 Speaker 1: me like the states will have the power to regulate 703 00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:16,920 Speaker 1: abortion after the June ruling by the Supreme Court. But 704 00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:20,040 Speaker 1: abortion is not going to be banned. It'll be difficult 705 00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:24,240 Speaker 1: to get in places like Oklahoma and Mississippi, but states 706 00:39:24,239 --> 00:39:27,239 Speaker 1: like California and New York are even now writing new 707 00:39:27,320 --> 00:39:30,360 Speaker 1: laws that say, come on up, we'll give you the 708 00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:33,319 Speaker 1: abortion here, and probably the taxpayer will pick up some 709 00:39:33,400 --> 00:39:37,520 Speaker 1: of the tab for you. So that's the likely outcome. 710 00:39:37,960 --> 00:39:40,400 Speaker 1: What do you think this does to the and just 711 00:39:40,440 --> 00:39:42,719 Speaker 1: looking at this from a political lens, putting aside the 712 00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:46,880 Speaker 1: legal and the memorial debates and arguments that this obviously 713 00:39:46,920 --> 00:39:50,960 Speaker 1: brings up. But Democrats were floundering, right, I mean, they 714 00:39:50,960 --> 00:39:53,920 Speaker 1: were having a really tough time trying to come up 715 00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:57,239 Speaker 1: with any explanation for why almost two you know, a 716 00:39:57,320 --> 00:39:59,960 Speaker 1: year a year and change and dibide in second second, 717 00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:03,560 Speaker 1: the Europe's first term that the Democrat Party should stay 718 00:40:03,600 --> 00:40:05,719 Speaker 1: in power. Right, the economy is not good, the border 719 00:40:05,840 --> 00:40:08,279 Speaker 1: is not good, crime is high, biggest war in Europe 720 00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:10,640 Speaker 1: since World War Two, which should have been prevented anyway, 721 00:40:10,680 --> 00:40:13,600 Speaker 1: a lot of things where they can't spin it. So, Bill, 722 00:40:13,640 --> 00:40:16,160 Speaker 1: do you think this is the mobilization point that they 723 00:40:16,440 --> 00:40:19,360 Speaker 1: need or is it not going to work out that way? Well, 724 00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:24,279 Speaker 1: it'll work to their advantage slightly. Some women in particular 725 00:40:24,400 --> 00:40:28,319 Speaker 1: will go over and make abortion the centerpiece of their 726 00:40:28,400 --> 00:40:31,799 Speaker 1: vote in November, but the economy is so shaky and 727 00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:34,279 Speaker 1: people are getting hurt every day that that's going to 728 00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:38,640 Speaker 1: overwhelm the abortion issue, particularly when the ruling comes down, 729 00:40:38,719 --> 00:40:42,360 Speaker 1: and it's not as drack Coonian as the corrupt corporate 730 00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:46,439 Speaker 1: media is making it seem today. So I think it's 731 00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:49,280 Speaker 1: a little bit of advantage to the left in November, 732 00:40:49,320 --> 00:40:51,080 Speaker 1: but I still think they're going to get wiped out 733 00:40:51,120 --> 00:40:55,080 Speaker 1: big time. We're speaking of Bill O'Reilly, author of Killing 734 00:40:55,080 --> 00:40:57,359 Speaker 1: the Killers, The Secret War against Terrorists, which is just 735 00:40:57,560 --> 00:41:01,319 Speaker 1: out now and said before or he's got so many 736 00:41:01,360 --> 00:41:03,480 Speaker 1: bestsellers now in the Killing series. This is going to 737 00:41:03,520 --> 00:41:06,839 Speaker 1: be added to and I'm sure already Bill, I want 738 00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:09,000 Speaker 1: to ask you about crime, because you know, Eric Adams 739 00:41:09,040 --> 00:41:11,120 Speaker 1: showed up at the Met gall Were you with the 740 00:41:11,120 --> 00:41:15,400 Speaker 1: Metcalibanny Chen's bill? I just wondered, Yeah, I mean, you 741 00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:16,919 Speaker 1: know you're a tall guy, so we would have seen 742 00:41:16,960 --> 00:41:20,000 Speaker 1: you in the photo of that. You never in a 743 00:41:20,040 --> 00:41:23,279 Speaker 1: million years if they invite someone like me to the 744 00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:26,120 Speaker 1: little contact, Yeah, it will just say it would get 745 00:41:26,120 --> 00:41:27,799 Speaker 1: a lot of buzz on the red carpet, that's for sure. 746 00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:30,239 Speaker 1: Fun just putting that out there for na Winter to hear. 747 00:41:30,520 --> 00:41:32,560 Speaker 1: But you know, Eric Adams shows up. He's got this 748 00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:36,600 Speaker 1: end gun violence tuxedo on crime since he took office. Now, look, 749 00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:39,200 Speaker 1: I know he got it. He inherited a bad situation, 750 00:41:39,200 --> 00:41:40,839 Speaker 1: but he's the mayor, right, he signs up for this 751 00:41:41,160 --> 00:41:43,080 Speaker 1: and he comes in on the primary issue of turning 752 00:41:43,120 --> 00:41:45,680 Speaker 1: it around. I don't I don't think that I'm seeing 753 00:41:45,719 --> 00:41:48,719 Speaker 1: a seriousness from him or quite honestly, any of the 754 00:41:48,800 --> 00:41:52,000 Speaker 1: Democrats in charge of him. And name a major city Chicago, 755 00:41:52,120 --> 00:41:56,440 Speaker 1: Los Angeles, Seattle, Atlanta, go down the list, right, Philadelphia. 756 00:41:56,680 --> 00:41:58,680 Speaker 1: Do you think that it just has to be a 757 00:41:58,719 --> 00:42:00,960 Speaker 1: wipe out in the mid terms to be four they 758 00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:03,160 Speaker 1: turn the ship in the right direction here to get 759 00:42:03,160 --> 00:42:06,080 Speaker 1: crime numbers down. How does that play out? Well, they're 760 00:42:06,120 --> 00:42:09,960 Speaker 1: not gonna get crime numbers down in New York for 761 00:42:10,040 --> 00:42:13,239 Speaker 1: the foreseeable future because the DA's and four of the 762 00:42:13,280 --> 00:42:18,600 Speaker 1: five boroughs won't prosecute crime. That's the You know, Adams 763 00:42:18,640 --> 00:42:20,520 Speaker 1: could jump up and down and say whatever he wants, 764 00:42:21,080 --> 00:42:24,040 Speaker 1: and the police can arrest all kinds of people. But 765 00:42:24,120 --> 00:42:26,480 Speaker 1: if they're not going to be prosecuted, and the criminals 766 00:42:26,560 --> 00:42:30,840 Speaker 1: know they will not be that's not gonna stop crime. 767 00:42:31,120 --> 00:42:34,160 Speaker 1: That's what you're seeing in San Francisco, in Chicago, the 768 00:42:34,239 --> 00:42:37,359 Speaker 1: anarchy of lawlessness because the criminals know they're not gonna 769 00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:41,080 Speaker 1: they're not gonna be punished, So why not car jack? 770 00:42:41,920 --> 00:42:43,680 Speaker 1: This is not even gonna happen to us. We're not 771 00:42:43,719 --> 00:42:46,759 Speaker 1: gonna go to jail and probably not even have to 772 00:42:46,760 --> 00:42:49,640 Speaker 1: go to court, not gonna have to sit in the jail. 773 00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:54,000 Speaker 1: So because there's no bail laws in New York. So Adams, 774 00:42:54,080 --> 00:42:57,080 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, he could do certain things if 775 00:42:57,080 --> 00:43:02,160 Speaker 1: he really wanted to. And I said, quite simply, you 776 00:43:02,160 --> 00:43:04,520 Speaker 1: want to send a message, Mayor Adams, you want us 777 00:43:04,520 --> 00:43:06,920 Speaker 1: to believe you clean up ten station. You can do 778 00:43:06,960 --> 00:43:09,680 Speaker 1: it in two days. I could do it in two days, Buck, 779 00:43:09,719 --> 00:43:11,200 Speaker 1: you could probably do it in a day and a half. 780 00:43:12,000 --> 00:43:14,399 Speaker 1: You send the cops in, you sweep these people up, 781 00:43:14,760 --> 00:43:17,000 Speaker 1: You say you can't stay here. It's a public health 782 00:43:17,080 --> 00:43:20,160 Speaker 1: menace that you're here. Get out, You bring in sanitation 783 00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:22,120 Speaker 1: to clean the place up, and pressed though you got 784 00:43:22,160 --> 00:43:26,000 Speaker 1: a brand new train station, Adam is going to do that. No, 785 00:43:26,920 --> 00:43:30,880 Speaker 1: unless he sends a message that he's serious, the crime 786 00:43:30,920 --> 00:43:33,280 Speaker 1: cycle will increase in New York City as it has 787 00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:38,080 Speaker 1: in Chicago, La San Francisco, Portland, Oregon. On and on 788 00:43:38,120 --> 00:43:40,440 Speaker 1: and on and on. Bill, I did want to ask 789 00:43:40,440 --> 00:43:42,960 Speaker 1: you about the new book here and this one, this 790 00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:47,520 Speaker 1: topic is well, it's particularly one that resonates with me 791 00:43:47,560 --> 00:43:50,000 Speaker 1: because I was somebody who quite honestly, you know, my 792 00:43:50,040 --> 00:43:52,120 Speaker 1: dad's a Manhasset guid Go by the way, So we 793 00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:54,120 Speaker 1: got we got some Long Island stuff in common, right, 794 00:43:54,719 --> 00:43:56,880 Speaker 1: But I grew up in New York City. Kid. I 795 00:43:56,920 --> 00:43:59,120 Speaker 1: figured I would go work for some company or something. 796 00:43:59,200 --> 00:44:01,320 Speaker 1: Nine to eleven happen and I go, I'm going to 797 00:44:01,400 --> 00:44:03,719 Speaker 1: get into this fight somehow. I'm going to figure out 798 00:44:03,760 --> 00:44:05,840 Speaker 1: some way I find myself in the CIA kind of 799 00:44:05,920 --> 00:44:08,719 Speaker 1: terrorism centered deployed to Iraq, the ploy to Afghanistan as 800 00:44:08,760 --> 00:44:12,040 Speaker 1: a Ford deployed analyst. And you know this changed my life, 801 00:44:12,120 --> 00:44:13,840 Speaker 1: right that I changed so many lives obviously, but this 802 00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:16,560 Speaker 1: changed my life, This war on terror? What are you? 803 00:44:16,840 --> 00:44:19,760 Speaker 1: What are you getting m What are you talking about 804 00:44:19,800 --> 00:44:21,440 Speaker 1: in this book that people need to know about that 805 00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:24,120 Speaker 1: maybe they either haven't learned before or is it mostly 806 00:44:24,160 --> 00:44:27,799 Speaker 1: just an overview of everything? So it's what's what's the 807 00:44:29,120 --> 00:44:30,920 Speaker 1: you know, what's the thing you want people to take 808 00:44:30,960 --> 00:44:33,439 Speaker 1: away from it? All Right, you're gonna love this book 809 00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:36,319 Speaker 1: when you read a book, Okay, and Travis is gonna 810 00:44:36,320 --> 00:44:38,880 Speaker 1: love it too. Every page is going to tell you 811 00:44:38,960 --> 00:44:41,560 Speaker 1: something you don't know, even though you yourself are an 812 00:44:41,560 --> 00:44:45,160 Speaker 1: expert on this topic. Because we were able to talk 813 00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:47,879 Speaker 1: to all of the national security people from the Bush 814 00:44:47,920 --> 00:44:51,600 Speaker 1: administration onto the end of the Trump administration and we 815 00:44:51,680 --> 00:44:54,879 Speaker 1: got the inside story about Afghanistan and Biden that ends 816 00:44:54,920 --> 00:44:57,520 Speaker 1: the book. The raid on bid Laden begins the book 817 00:44:57,520 --> 00:45:00,880 Speaker 1: The Anniverse? Who Is Yesterday? Most of the stuff that 818 00:45:00,920 --> 00:45:03,680 Speaker 1: we have in the book has never been put out 819 00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:08,080 Speaker 1: there before. Much of it is classified information to this day. 820 00:45:08,239 --> 00:45:11,240 Speaker 1: What Americans need to know is the war on terrat 821 00:45:11,360 --> 00:45:15,920 Speaker 1: is now heating up oh God, is reconstituting in Afghanistan. 822 00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:20,759 Speaker 1: ISIS is reconstituting in western Iraq and northern Syria. The 823 00:45:20,840 --> 00:45:25,680 Speaker 1: Biden administration is not paying attention to this theater because 824 00:45:25,719 --> 00:45:29,799 Speaker 1: they're tied up with Putin and Ukraine and all of that. 825 00:45:30,640 --> 00:45:33,279 Speaker 1: But these boys are hell bent on getting in here 826 00:45:33,320 --> 00:45:36,920 Speaker 1: and blowing up as much as they can blow up 827 00:45:36,960 --> 00:45:40,640 Speaker 1: and killing as many innocent Americans as they can. Now 828 00:45:40,680 --> 00:45:44,839 Speaker 1: to counter that, we have unbelievable weaponry, and we describe it, 829 00:45:44,920 --> 00:45:49,320 Speaker 1: and this is what's constraining Putin in Europe. He knows 830 00:45:49,400 --> 00:45:53,080 Speaker 1: we have these weapons. Putin himself knows we can vaporize 831 00:45:53,160 --> 00:45:56,640 Speaker 1: him in two hours if we choose to. These weapons 832 00:45:56,640 --> 00:46:01,439 Speaker 1: are unbelievable. They're deployed now in space. Take you through them. 833 00:46:01,920 --> 00:46:06,439 Speaker 1: These space weapons are actually run at a Nevada. Did 834 00:46:06,440 --> 00:46:10,839 Speaker 1: you know that? To neither confirm nor deny Bill Okay, well, 835 00:46:10,960 --> 00:46:14,840 Speaker 1: very few people buck know it, but we were able 836 00:46:14,920 --> 00:46:19,200 Speaker 1: to trace it down. And this is what vaporized Baghdaddy. 837 00:46:19,320 --> 00:46:22,680 Speaker 1: So leamani the leaders of book oh Haram, and we 838 00:46:22,800 --> 00:46:25,319 Speaker 1: take you through it. We put you there. And the 839 00:46:25,320 --> 00:46:27,560 Speaker 1: final thing that I think Americans will respond to is 840 00:46:27,640 --> 00:46:31,080 Speaker 1: kayla Muller, twenty six year old humanitarian worker from Arizona, 841 00:46:31,520 --> 00:46:36,560 Speaker 1: kidnapped by ISIS in Syria. Okay Isis demanded a ransom, 842 00:46:36,719 --> 00:46:40,640 Speaker 1: dated her parents. We got the emails. Her parents cooperated 843 00:46:40,640 --> 00:46:44,440 Speaker 1: with US. Al Baghdaddy himself raped Kayla and ordered her murder. 844 00:46:45,400 --> 00:46:49,400 Speaker 1: When you read her story, how harrowing it is. And 845 00:46:49,440 --> 00:46:54,200 Speaker 1: then you see how we got Baghdaddy through coercid interrogation, 846 00:46:55,239 --> 00:46:58,160 Speaker 1: which the left scream then ow doesn't work. It works, 847 00:46:58,719 --> 00:47:02,080 Speaker 1: and it's still being done. So this book is one 848 00:47:02,120 --> 00:47:05,200 Speaker 1: of those things you'll never forget.
