1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,320 Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Buck 2 00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:08,000 Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. Welcome in our number three Clay Travis 3 00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:10,680 Speaker 1: buck Sexton Show. I hope you guys are having fantastic 4 00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:13,520 Speaker 1: starts to your hump days wherever you may be across 5 00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:16,160 Speaker 1: this great country or this great land. We've had two 6 00:00:16,239 --> 00:00:20,920 Speaker 1: really good hours of the program already. Want to reiterate 7 00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:22,720 Speaker 1: for those of you who are just joining us now, 8 00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:25,639 Speaker 1: our thanks to Florida Governor Ron De Santis. Buck and 9 00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:28,800 Speaker 1: I had dinner with him last night in the Governor's 10 00:00:28,840 --> 00:00:33,120 Speaker 1: mansion in Tallahassee. Fantastic to discuss a variety of issues 11 00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:35,720 Speaker 1: with him. He was on the show yesterday. Encourage you 12 00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:38,320 Speaker 1: to go listen to that. On the podcast, we talked 13 00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:40,959 Speaker 1: a lot about the craziness that is coming out of 14 00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:44,479 Speaker 1: Disney in the wake of the parental rights bill that 15 00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:48,720 Speaker 1: was passed in Florida and the massive overreaction, including the 16 00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:51,680 Speaker 1: labeling of that bill Don't Say Gay. We've talked a 17 00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:56,200 Speaker 1: lot about what's going on with Hunter Biden. The Washington 18 00:00:56,240 --> 00:01:00,640 Speaker 1: Post and CNN suddenly acknowledging that the laptop is and 19 00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:05,760 Speaker 1: then Hunter Biden faces potentially significant criminal consequences as a result, 20 00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:09,800 Speaker 1: where are we headed in that regard? But we want 21 00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:14,759 Speaker 1: to dive into a couple of stories here that are significant. One, 22 00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:18,520 Speaker 1: we told you this was going to happen. Katanji Brown Jackson, 23 00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:22,520 Speaker 1: Supreme Court nominee to replace Stephen Bryer, is going to 24 00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:26,399 Speaker 1: be confirmed. That was a certainty as soon as Joe Manchion, 25 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:30,080 Speaker 1: Democratic governor of a Democratic senator from West Virginia, announced 26 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:33,640 Speaker 1: that he was going to be supporting her nomination. Then 27 00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:37,959 Speaker 1: the question became how many Republicans might be willing to 28 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:43,040 Speaker 1: vote for her. Susan Collins, who voted for Brett Kavanaugh, 29 00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:46,679 Speaker 1: really helped to get Brett Kavanaugh across the finish line 30 00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:48,960 Speaker 1: so that he is on the Supreme Court, and then 31 00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:53,200 Speaker 1: one an incredibly difficult reelection race that no one expected, 32 00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:56,120 Speaker 1: by the way her to win in the state of Maine. 33 00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 1: Has become the first Republican to announce that she will 34 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:04,200 Speaker 1: be voting for Katangi Brown Jackson. Here is what Susan 35 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:08,120 Speaker 1: Collins just said in the last hour or so regarding 36 00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:11,079 Speaker 1: that nomination. I met with her for an hour and 37 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:14,240 Speaker 1: a half before the hearing, watched much of the hearing, 38 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 1: and then I met with her yesterday for an hour. 39 00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:25,440 Speaker 1: At the conclusion of bad extensive review and conversation, I 40 00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:30,520 Speaker 1: came to the conclusion that she clearly had the credentials, 41 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 1: the experience, the qualifications, and the integrity that I look 42 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:39,560 Speaker 1: for in a Supreme Court justice. So there is a 43 00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:43,040 Speaker 1: Republican buck you predicted three. I think, I said, Susan 44 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:45,359 Speaker 1: Collins to me was the most likely who potentially would 45 00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:48,160 Speaker 1: flip met Romney. I would say, is the other one 46 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:49,720 Speaker 1: that is kind of there, And then there are other 47 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:53,160 Speaker 1: guys that are retiring that might decide to just go ahead. 48 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:55,360 Speaker 1: And there's no suspense here really, but this will be 49 00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:58,239 Speaker 1: treated as a major story. Yeah, I gotta say, I'm 50 00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 1: surprised at actually how much the Republican senators were willing 51 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 1: to push pro basque real questions. They it's a rare moment. 52 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:11,960 Speaker 1: But see, I admit, when I didn't get it exactly 53 00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:15,200 Speaker 1: as it was, I had assumed they would go a 54 00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:18,639 Speaker 1: little bit more gently on this nominee than they did. 55 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:21,560 Speaker 1: They pushed, and I think they at least created now 56 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:23,760 Speaker 1: it doesn't change the outcome either way. So it's kind 57 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:26,960 Speaker 1: of easy to take a vote as a Republican. Well, 58 00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:30,360 Speaker 1: what's the upside for most of the GOP senators of 59 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:33,360 Speaker 1: voting in favor of this nominee. There's no upside. There's 60 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:37,240 Speaker 1: only downside unless you're Susan Collins, unless you're a so 61 00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:41,360 Speaker 1: called moderate Republican who's maybe up for a tough re 62 00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:44,480 Speaker 1: election fight, in which case you have to look at 63 00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 1: the political calculations involved here. But the GOP did actually 64 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 1: make it easier for those votes to be cast against 65 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:57,960 Speaker 1: this nominee insofar as they raised real questions about about 66 00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 1: judgment and about credit ability on certain issues when it 67 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:06,000 Speaker 1: comes to jurisprudence, specifically on the child porn sentencing and 68 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 1: a few other areas where they pressed this nominee pretty hard. 69 00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:13,960 Speaker 1: I was surprised. I was surprised that it's quite honestly, 70 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:15,400 Speaker 1: I thought they would. I thought it would be a 71 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:17,360 Speaker 1: little bit more like Amy Coney Barrett, where you could 72 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:21,240 Speaker 1: tell the Left wanted to land something but they couldn't 73 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:23,080 Speaker 1: really come up with it, and so they had to 74 00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 1: just sort of allow it to go through the Democrats senators. 75 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:30,960 Speaker 1: This time around the GOP they put up something of 76 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:33,000 Speaker 1: a fight. When you could say it was all for show, 77 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:36,320 Speaker 1: but they put up something of a fight. I believe 78 00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:40,120 Speaker 1: we have. Now let's pivot a bit. Doctor Fauci is 79 00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:44,600 Speaker 1: back out and he is now circling around. We're gonna 80 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:46,960 Speaker 1: play his cuts in a minute. But Joe Biden has 81 00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:51,360 Speaker 1: just spoken, and I want to They've announced, by the way, 82 00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:54,920 Speaker 1: a fourth booster shot for people who are fifty or over. 83 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:57,920 Speaker 1: So you're up to four shots now in the last year. 84 00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:00,719 Speaker 1: If you are keeping track of all that. By the way, 85 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:06,279 Speaker 1: encourage continued encouragement to people who are senior citizens, to 86 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:09,600 Speaker 1: people who are not healthy, those shots I do believe 87 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 1: are helpful to you if you are relatively young, if 88 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 1: you are relatively healthy, makes absolutely no sense for you 89 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,679 Speaker 1: to be concerned about the COVID shot based on the data. 90 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:24,400 Speaker 1: But here is Joe Biden. Look, Buck, we've been arguing 91 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:27,960 Speaker 1: about this, not arguing, discussing, but arguing as if we 92 00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 1: were Democrats. What is the pitch that Joe Biden is 93 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:34,120 Speaker 1: going to make to try to forestall the red wave 94 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:36,839 Speaker 1: that is potentially going to sweep over this country? We 95 00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 1: believe in November, really there's not much out there he 96 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 1: can argue COVID He is going to try to argue, 97 00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 1: and I don't know if the data is going to 98 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 1: allow him to do it, Buck, but he's going to 99 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:49,680 Speaker 1: try to argue that he has been successful in beating COVID. 100 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,279 Speaker 1: Here is Joe Biden just a few minutes ago saying 101 00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:55,720 Speaker 1: COVID no longer controls our lives because of the strategy 102 00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 1: we execute it over the past year on vaccinations, testing, treatment, 103 00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:04,160 Speaker 1: and more. We're now in a new moment in this pandemic. 104 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:07,920 Speaker 1: Does not mean the COVID nineteen is over. It means 105 00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:11,240 Speaker 1: that COVID nineteen no longer controls our lives. That's what 106 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 1: it means. Cases are ticking up as we thought they might. 107 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:18,840 Speaker 1: But now, thanks to the foundation we've laid, America has 108 00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:22,480 Speaker 1: the tools to protect people all people. And you know, 109 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:25,720 Speaker 1: as we've done, I'm from day one, my administration is 110 00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:29,120 Speaker 1: making it easier than ever for American access these tools. 111 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,560 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna say, no, no, this is not what 112 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:36,680 Speaker 1: was promised. Clay. Remember it was very clear we heard it. 113 00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:41,240 Speaker 1: It was really the primary rallying cry other than Trever, 114 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:44,760 Speaker 1: no joke where we are, you know, a bunch of 115 00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:48,920 Speaker 1: mumbling from Biden. The primary rallying cry of the Biden 116 00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 1: candidacy was I'm not going to shut down the economy. 117 00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:57,240 Speaker 1: I'm going to shut down the virus. And now what 118 00:06:57,320 --> 00:07:02,080 Speaker 1: we see, more than a year into it, is Biden saying, oh, well, 119 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:06,839 Speaker 1: we have the tools to better manage the forever reality 120 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:10,280 Speaker 1: of COVID circulating in our population. So let's just start 121 00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:13,240 Speaker 1: with this is a fail based upon the promise that 122 00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:16,040 Speaker 1: Joe Biden made. Now you and I expected this failure, 123 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:18,560 Speaker 1: but it is a failure based upon the promise that 124 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:21,960 Speaker 1: he made to voters. And there's still a lot and 125 00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 1: we're gonna be talking to people that have been right 126 00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:26,560 Speaker 1: on this, whether it's doctor Marty McCarry or a friend 127 00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:29,440 Speaker 1: Alex Barnson or others in the days ahead. They just 128 00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:31,480 Speaker 1: think they're gonna keep rolling out these shots and everyone's 129 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:33,800 Speaker 1: gonna just keep getting them. And you know, we're not 130 00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:39,160 Speaker 1: done with vaccine, passports everywhere. We're not done with these things. 131 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:42,520 Speaker 1: It is just a pause. And that's why Biden saying 132 00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 1: we have the tools now they're trying to know he 133 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 1: is trying to normalize in the conversation this call it 134 00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:53,280 Speaker 1: the apparatus of COVID compliance, which is just going to 135 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:55,960 Speaker 1: be something that we're expected to live with, whether it's 136 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:58,320 Speaker 1: masking on the planes or getting the shot every fall 137 00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:00,280 Speaker 1: and getting the car to say you can go into 138 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 1: a restaurant, and maybe getting a booster and all this stuff. 139 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:06,080 Speaker 1: This fight we told you isn't over, and you're seeing 140 00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 1: right now they're getting ready for it again. What about 141 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 1: the winner of death ending? And nobody even calling Joe 142 00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:15,720 Speaker 1: Biden on this? Remember Buck in December when he put 143 00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:18,760 Speaker 1: out the official statement and said, if you're unvaccinated, it's 144 00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:21,480 Speaker 1: going to be a winter of death. And now we're 145 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 1: into spring, thankfully, and Joe Biden is just trying to pitch, Hey, 146 00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:29,600 Speaker 1: we beat COVID, Hey we're fine. I don't think it's 147 00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:34,680 Speaker 1: going to register with the American public. And also, speaking 148 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:38,400 Speaker 1: of which, how about doctor Fauci. How about doctor Foucci 149 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:42,400 Speaker 1: getting interviewed by the BBC Buck and being asked about 150 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:47,360 Speaker 1: whether or not lockdowns had any sort of positive impact. 151 00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:50,719 Speaker 1: And Faucci now has moved on from and I think 152 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:54,480 Speaker 1: this is significant, even if he's not acknowledging the pivot. 153 00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:57,880 Speaker 1: For a long time, the lockdowners out there, Buck, they argued, 154 00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:00,560 Speaker 1: oh my goodness, if we hadn't lockdown, million people would 155 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:04,560 Speaker 1: have died. Now they're not even willing to acknowledge that 156 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:07,480 Speaker 1: the lockdown was ever the right decision. I believe we 157 00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:11,720 Speaker 1: have audio. Do we have audio? He's asked about assessing this, 158 00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:15,079 Speaker 1: and it turns out it's a little more complicated than that. 159 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:18,640 Speaker 1: He says, play it. I'm interested in your reluctance to 160 00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:21,559 Speaker 1: use the word lockdown. Do you think two years on 161 00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:23,920 Speaker 1: that they were worth it or were they too severe? 162 00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:25,560 Speaker 1: You know, I don't think we're ever going to be 163 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:28,199 Speaker 1: able to determine what the right balance is. I think 164 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:30,600 Speaker 1: the restrictions, if you want to use that word, which 165 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:34,439 Speaker 1: I tend to shy away from, lockdown, there's certainly prevented 166 00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:38,840 Speaker 1: a lot of infections, prevented a lot of hospitalizations, and 167 00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 1: prevented a lot of deaths. There's no doubt about that. Obviously. 168 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:46,760 Speaker 1: When you do have that kind of restriction on society, 169 00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 1: there are unintended negative consequences, particularly in children who are 170 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:55,880 Speaker 1: not allowed to go to school, in the psychological and 171 00:09:55,960 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 1: mental health aspects it has on children, in the economic 172 00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:03,440 Speaker 1: make stress that it puts on society in general, on 173 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:10,679 Speaker 1: individual families, obviously, those are negative consequences that are unintended. Obviously, 174 00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:13,440 Speaker 1: because I think this is the first time he's ever 175 00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:17,480 Speaker 1: even nice with you the trade offs. I've never heard 176 00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 1: him say obviously there are bad things that will happen 177 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 1: from this. And notice he can't even help himself. The 178 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:28,840 Speaker 1: little health stalinist knows that the propaganda is the primary 179 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:32,120 Speaker 1: purpose of his appearances on television. So he says, I 180 00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:35,560 Speaker 1: don't like the term restrictions. What the hell do you 181 00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 1: call limiting how many people can be in a bar? 182 00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:42,319 Speaker 1: You're a little idiot. What do you call making people 183 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:45,240 Speaker 1: mask up between bites on planes? You know, this is 184 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 1: why he loved that term mitigation for so long, and 185 00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:51,040 Speaker 1: people after a while we're like, wait, why, First of all, 186 00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:54,199 Speaker 1: you're not even mitigating anything. And the biggest contention I 187 00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:56,920 Speaker 1: think is exactly that where he says there's no doubt 188 00:10:57,240 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 1: that a lot of cases were prevented and a lot 189 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:01,720 Speaker 1: of lives. I don't buy that at all. By lockdowns, 190 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 1: there's actually nothing but doubt. He has no proof, no evidence, 191 00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:09,120 Speaker 1: no data whatsoever to support his point of view. So really, 192 00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:10,640 Speaker 1: what you have is there's a little light bulb going 193 00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:13,400 Speaker 1: off over Fauci's head where it's like, oh my god, 194 00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:16,240 Speaker 1: there's all this horrible stuff that happened that I made 195 00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:20,040 Speaker 1: people do by pretending I had the answers, and there 196 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:24,400 Speaker 1: was no upside, only downside, only misery and death and 197 00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:29,240 Speaker 1: destruction in addition to that created by the virus. And 198 00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:32,800 Speaker 1: what is interesting to me about this answer. You and 199 00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:35,800 Speaker 1: I have been talking about, hey, in the years ahead, 200 00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 1: how are we going to have a reckoning over the 201 00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:44,640 Speaker 1: disastrous decision to lock down the country. And one answer is, well, 202 00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:48,400 Speaker 1: the midterms in November. All of you listening have to 203 00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:51,560 Speaker 1: go out and vote. Everybody you know you have to 204 00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 1: convince to go vote. There has to be significant consequences 205 00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:58,600 Speaker 1: for everyone who advocated for lockdowns, who kept your kids 206 00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:01,559 Speaker 1: out of school, who kept kids in masks, who didn't 207 00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:04,559 Speaker 1: allow your business to be run. That was a failure 208 00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:08,120 Speaker 1: of American public policy, the biggest failure of American public 209 00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:12,040 Speaker 1: policy and many of our lives, certainly since Vietnam. And 210 00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:15,080 Speaker 1: I think honestly at this point it's worse than Vietnam, 211 00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:19,080 Speaker 1: which is meaning for most of the twentieth century and 212 00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:21,480 Speaker 1: the twenty first century. Now we've never made a worst 213 00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:24,080 Speaker 1: public policy decision. But Buck, what I find interesting about 214 00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:27,080 Speaker 1: that answer is he said we'll never know for sure. 215 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:32,239 Speaker 1: He's not even trying to argue in favor of lockdowns 216 00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:38,160 Speaker 1: already he is implicitly acknowledging that they didn't make sense 217 00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:41,320 Speaker 1: when he is the foremost proponent of lockdowns. And what 218 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:44,640 Speaker 1: I found so significant about that Clipbuck is he's not 219 00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:47,640 Speaker 1: even trying to argue that we had to do it anymore, 220 00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:51,480 Speaker 1: which is the first step towards what is eventually going 221 00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:53,240 Speaker 1: to happen. When I was been predicting, I know, we've 222 00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:56,520 Speaker 1: been talking about this. The first thing that happens is 223 00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:59,640 Speaker 1: people who were the biggest proponent of lockdowns start to say, well, 224 00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:02,440 Speaker 1: will never really know whether it was the right choice. 225 00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:05,880 Speaker 1: When you stop arguing it was the right choice, you 226 00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:09,040 Speaker 1: are implicitly acknowledging it was the wrong choice. And you're 227 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:13,040 Speaker 1: trying to jump off, jump off the lockdown, And the 228 00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:15,520 Speaker 1: reason they do that is to create the distance from it. 229 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 1: So then the switch is it was a consensus. I 230 00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:22,960 Speaker 1: didn't push that, it was a conversation. It was the 231 00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:27,080 Speaker 1: commisial responsibility is taken away as the next step, and 232 00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:30,360 Speaker 1: you say, well, we couldn't. We we had so much uncertainty, 233 00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:33,560 Speaker 1: we had no other options. And then eventually we will 234 00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:36,640 Speaker 1: cycle too. We got it all wrong. But I don't 235 00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:38,000 Speaker 1: know how long it's going to take us to get there. 236 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:40,920 Speaker 1: But this is significant. There's no defense of lockdowns anymore. 237 00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:44,520 Speaker 1: It's a committee of one making these decisions at the 238 00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:46,800 Speaker 1: NIH focused So you know, anybody who's worked over there, 239 00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:49,120 Speaker 1: anybody who actually has any insider access, will tell you 240 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:51,960 Speaker 1: whatever Fauci decided, they all just nodded their heads. Nobody 241 00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:53,800 Speaker 1: was gonna Nobody was going to cross him because he 242 00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:56,720 Speaker 1: was on the speed dial of every cable channel except 243 00:13:56,720 --> 00:14:00,360 Speaker 1: for one in America. And we all know why. So 244 00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:03,960 Speaker 1: it wasn't it wasn't as collective this guy to do 245 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:08,360 Speaker 1: his part for the Democrat apparatus, pushed us into these 246 00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:12,240 Speaker 1: disastrous policies and then allowed so and then call for 247 00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:16,040 Speaker 1: social media to shut down debati where this fight is 248 00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:17,640 Speaker 1: not over, and we will come back to this. We 249 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:21,240 Speaker 1: will get into this morning big news, buck Wall Street Journal, 250 00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:24,480 Speaker 1: Breaking news US, and we'll talk about this when we 251 00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:26,640 Speaker 1: come back, because it's going to be significant. The Biden 252 00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:30,240 Speaker 1: administration is officially lifting Title forty two at the Border 253 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:36,000 Speaker 1: Blues has broken, Wall Street Journal Pandemic era policy will 254 00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 1: be ended on May twenty third. So the border, to 255 00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:42,600 Speaker 1: the extent it's not already open, it's about to be 256 00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:47,600 Speaker 1: getting ready free rain. Anybody can come through lawlessness and 257 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:51,480 Speaker 1: mayhem at the southern border and the Biden administration. Oh my, 258 00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:54,200 Speaker 1: we're gonna we'll dive into this. Stay with us. The 259 00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:56,720 Speaker 1: words written by our nation's founders about the value of 260 00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:59,160 Speaker 1: our personal freedoms have certainly stood the test of time. 261 00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:01,720 Speaker 1: No wonder those words have been carefully curated all these 262 00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:05,520 Speaker 1: years through generations of Americans. They resonate with us expressions 263 00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:08,840 Speaker 1: of liberty and personal choice. We experience it today differently 264 00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:12,360 Speaker 1: than they did, what with mass mandates, big tech, censorship, 265 00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:15,640 Speaker 1: and a constantly growing government. We take on each of 266 00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:19,240 Speaker 1: these adversities, fighting back in the proper ways. The liberal 267 00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:22,240 Speaker 1: response to adversity is always to strike down individual liberty 268 00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:26,479 Speaker 1: and implement more government. So we joined AMAC, the Association 269 00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:30,120 Speaker 1: of Mature American Citizens. AMAC has worked tirelessly to push 270 00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:33,560 Speaker 1: back against the left. You can tell that AMAC vows 271 00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:37,480 Speaker 1: to remain steadfast through the midterms and beyond. AMAK also 272 00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:41,120 Speaker 1: offers members exclusive benefits that save you money, a great magazine, 273 00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:45,560 Speaker 1: and most importantly, a strong conservative voice on Capitol Hill. 274 00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:49,280 Speaker 1: Stand with AMAC and us by joining today at AMAC 275 00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:55,960 Speaker 1: dot us slash freedom. That's am AC dot us slash 276 00:15:56,120 --> 00:16:04,280 Speaker 1: freedom join AMAK today. We know boosters are critical to 277 00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:07,480 Speaker 1: providing an additional level of protection. That's why I plan 278 00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:11,000 Speaker 1: to get my second booster today, right here after I'm 279 00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:15,160 Speaker 1: done speaking. If you haven't gotten your first booster, please 280 00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:19,560 Speaker 1: don't wait. Do it today. Those were fifty and older 281 00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:23,480 Speaker 1: as well as those were immuno compromised, can now get 282 00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:25,920 Speaker 1: it get even more protection than they have from the 283 00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:30,320 Speaker 1: initial first doses. We have enough supply to give booster 284 00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:34,800 Speaker 1: shots to those newly eligible individuals, but if Congress fail 285 00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:37,560 Speaker 1: to act, we won't have the supply we need this 286 00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:42,400 Speaker 1: fall to ensure the shots are available free, easily accessible 287 00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:47,200 Speaker 1: for all Americans. Even worse, if we need a different 288 00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:50,880 Speaker 1: vaccine for the future to combat a new variant, We're 289 00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:54,560 Speaker 1: not going to have enough money to purchase it. Endless 290 00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 1: boosters exactly what we told you they were going to 291 00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:03,080 Speaker 1: push for. And here we are, Biden there just speaking. 292 00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:05,080 Speaker 1: Welcome back to Clay and Buck. Of course Biden, they're 293 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:09,119 Speaker 1: just speaking about how he's so excited to be getting 294 00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:14,399 Speaker 1: shot number four, and you have to wonder he's talking 295 00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:17,280 Speaker 1: about the fall. So I'm going to assume because also 296 00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:22,159 Speaker 1: the boosters wane in efficacy within sixty days or so. Well, 297 00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:25,200 Speaker 1: what's yeah, so we're going to five. He's gonna be 298 00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:27,800 Speaker 1: at number five this fall, folks, he's gonna be We're 299 00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:30,840 Speaker 1: a good fifth booster shot. It's great works so well, 300 00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:33,720 Speaker 1: you need number six though for it to work real well, 301 00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:38,560 Speaker 1: can you imagine if we had said back in January 302 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:45,200 Speaker 1: on our shows, hey, these new vaccines by March, everybody's 303 00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:47,000 Speaker 1: gonna be on their fourth one in order for them 304 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:50,400 Speaker 1: to be effective, that you would have gotten banned. We're 305 00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:52,480 Speaker 1: gonna talk, by the way, to Alex Barnson on Friday, 306 00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:56,480 Speaker 1: Doctor Marty McCarry tomorrow. But there's no doubt buck that 307 00:17:56,560 --> 00:17:59,680 Speaker 1: by the fall, Joe Biden's gonna be getting his fifth shot, 308 00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:05,600 Speaker 1: his fifth shot. Here's a solution to high price a gas. 309 00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:09,879 Speaker 1: How about just getting hooked up with with something that 310 00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:12,200 Speaker 1: makes a lot of sense. Paul and Pennsylvania says, he 311 00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:14,919 Speaker 1: started to ride his bicycle every day he can, weather permitting, 312 00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:16,960 Speaker 1: uses the bike to run errands around town. That way, 313 00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:19,720 Speaker 1: he doesn't have to pay as much for his gas. 314 00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:23,120 Speaker 1: But here's the deal, all that bike riding has led 315 00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:26,199 Speaker 1: to pain. His solution relief factor. Relief factor has been 316 00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:29,000 Speaker 1: a great help for him when it comes to the pain. 317 00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:32,679 Speaker 1: And I gotta tell you that my wife uses relief Factor. 318 00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:36,000 Speaker 1: She works out super hard, She's an incredible shape.

The pandemic era 333 00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:30,200 Speaker 1: policy allowing migrants to be turned away at the border 334 00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:34,399 Speaker 1: will end May twenty third. So we know already Buck 335 00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:39,840 Speaker 1: a million interactions effectively have occurred at the border already 336 00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:43,960 Speaker 1: and basically halfway through the year apprehensions just to bean 337 00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:47,320 Speaker 1: apprehensions right, because interactions could be legal stuff too. I mean, 338 00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:49,399 Speaker 1: these are people that are being taken into custody for 339 00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:54,160 Speaker 1: violation of US federal law. So once this comes to 340 00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:57,960 Speaker 1: an end, the government will need to consider any asylum 341 00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:01,080 Speaker 1: claims made at the border, which requires I'm reading from 342 00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:04,280 Speaker 1: the Wall Street Journal, a brief detention before they can 343 00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:08,600 Speaker 1: be released into the US or deported. Under Title forty two, 344 00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:12,159 Speaker 1: any migrant asking for humanitarian protection could still be sent 345 00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:15,520 Speaker 1: back to Mexico, though in practice Mexico is limited how 346 00:20:15,520 --> 00:20:19,280 Speaker 1: many people is willing to take back, and so they 347 00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:22,600 Speaker 1: are afraid at the border that they are going to 348 00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:28,040 Speaker 1: be rapidly overwhelmed. And this seems very likely to happen 349 00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:32,040 Speaker 1: buck sooner rather than later. Again, the date according to 350 00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:35,680 Speaker 1: this just in time for the weather conditions being good 351 00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:38,040 Speaker 1: enough right for people to start to cross, So you 352 00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:41,960 Speaker 1: can start to travel all over Latin America through April 353 00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:44,560 Speaker 1: into May to make your way up to the border. 354 00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:48,400 Speaker 1: It will officially end May twenty third. And let's remember 355 00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:53,280 Speaker 1: what the incentive is here for the Biden Department of 356 00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:57,040 Speaker 1: Homeland Security under Mayorcas and the Biden regime at this 357 00:20:57,119 --> 00:21:00,320 Speaker 1: stage what they're going to care about, and there CanCERN 358 00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:03,960 Speaker 1: here is a replay at some level of what we 359 00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:07,280 Speaker 1: had at the border of months back where the Haitian 360 00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:12,119 Speaker 1: what was about twenty thousand or so most Reitian migrants 361 00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:14,800 Speaker 1: in Texas had all gathered to one place because that 362 00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:19,679 Speaker 1: was a visual manifestation of the exploitation at our border 363 00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:22,880 Speaker 1: of our own laws and the lawlessness that was underway, 364 00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:26,239 Speaker 1: and people they can't hide that. They tried, remember when 365 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:29,119 Speaker 1: they tried to ban drone footage in the area, so 366 00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:31,639 Speaker 1: they didn't want people to see the full scale, so 367 00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:33,240 Speaker 1: they tried to hide. And then they made the story 368 00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:37,199 Speaker 1: about the horseback whipping, which wasn't whipping, it was split reins. 369 00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:39,840 Speaker 1: And there, as you've pointed out, still investigating that to 370 00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:42,679 Speaker 1: get to so they can say, oh, we're still investigating 371 00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:44,879 Speaker 1: to just that's just to run out the clock, and 372 00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:47,760 Speaker 1: so everyone forgets about what they tried to do. But 373 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:51,840 Speaker 1: the Biden administration's primary concern here is going to be optics. 374 00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:54,640 Speaker 1: If there is a massive surge of illegals to try 375 00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:57,320 Speaker 1: to come across the border, what they will first and 376 00:21:57,359 --> 00:22:00,760 Speaker 1: foremost want to make sure is that they process them quickly. 377 00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:04,080 Speaker 1: And get them into the US. They're fine with that, 378 00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:07,479 Speaker 1: they just don't want a mass of people at the 379 00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:10,920 Speaker 1: border who are coming in illegally because the American people 380 00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:14,240 Speaker 1: in an election year will see that and will know 381 00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:17,880 Speaker 1: what is going on. The numbers hit home the visual 382 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:22,600 Speaker 1: of ten, fifteen, twenty, maybe twenty thousand plus people all 383 00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:26,240 Speaker 1: at one place Clay that really sticks in people's memories 384 00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:29,440 Speaker 1: about what's going on in our southern border. Also worth 385 00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:31,879 Speaker 1: mentioning that it could be the case that they are 386 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:36,560 Speaker 1: eliminating any pandemic related restriction at the border and still 387 00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:41,240 Speaker 1: implementing mask mandates on airplanes, which is hard to justify, 388 00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:44,160 Speaker 1: right if things are so safe with covid that you're 389 00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:48,920 Speaker 1: doing away with COVID era restrictions at the border, Why 390 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:50,480 Speaker 1: in the world do you or I need to be 391 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:52,879 Speaker 1: wearing a mask to fly anywhere in the country. I 392 00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:56,280 Speaker 1: don't know. But you're asking all these very fairmontic questions, 393 00:22:56,920 --> 00:23:00,159 Speaker 1: and that may make Stephen Colbert want to ask a 394 00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:04,760 Speaker 1: special slap exception against you. Well, I was really surprised 395 00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:07,800 Speaker 1: to see that this happened, because you know Buck as 396 00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:11,119 Speaker 1: well as I do, that everything is written when it 397 00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:15,200 Speaker 1: comes to these late night shows, and obviously Will Smith 398 00:23:15,280 --> 00:23:19,360 Speaker 1: smacking Chris Rock has gotten a lot of attention. And 399 00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:23,040 Speaker 1: then you have Stephen Colbert, who, by the way, getting 400 00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:28,440 Speaker 1: beaten now by the Gutfeld Show on a regular basis 401 00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:34,960 Speaker 1: in the evening. The most watched evening show on ABCCBC, CBS, NBC, 402 00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:37,800 Speaker 1: and Fox News is now on Fox News. More people 403 00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:41,200 Speaker 1: are watching Gutfeld in the evening than are watching Stephen Colbert, 404 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:45,040 Speaker 1: who had been winning the night League contest. He said, hey, 405 00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:47,840 Speaker 1: you know Fox News channels Peter Doocey, he deserves a 406 00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:51,399 Speaker 1: slap for asking about Russia. Listen to this. President Biden 407 00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:55,520 Speaker 1: held a press conference and he was asked a ridiculous 408 00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:58,879 Speaker 1: question by a ridiculous man Fox News reporter and that 409 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:00,800 Speaker 1: one kid in high school who wears a suit to 410 00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:05,359 Speaker 1: jim class, Peter Deucey. Jimmy dropped the deuce when he 411 00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:08,600 Speaker 1: said a chemical weapon used by Russia would trigger a 412 00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:13,000 Speaker 1: response in kind. We'll shure you're a significant response. If 413 00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:16,240 Speaker 1: I'm not going to tell you, why would I tell 414 00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:26,199 Speaker 1: you that? You gotta be shilly? Remember yes, remember how 415 00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:28,479 Speaker 1: on last night's show I said that slapping is never 416 00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:33,320 Speaker 1: ever the answer. I have to file a one time 417 00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:35,520 Speaker 1: exemption on behalf of the president of that I had stays, 418 00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:40,520 Speaker 1: this is snapping Buck for asking a question which is 419 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:43,359 Speaker 1: one hundred percent a valid question, like why would you 420 00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:46,000 Speaker 1: not want the president to answer a question? You may 421 00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:48,480 Speaker 1: not answer it, that's fine, but you should as a 422 00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:51,760 Speaker 1: journalist be asking what is a significant response to chemical weapons? 423 00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:53,320 Speaker 1: Going to look like, I mean, that's a that's the 424 00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:56,280 Speaker 1: number one question. If if I told you, Buck, hey, 425 00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:58,000 Speaker 1: if I tell one of my kids, hey, there's gonna 426 00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:02,160 Speaker 1: be a significant response if you don't don't follow directions 427 00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:05,640 Speaker 1: when it comes to take care of your brother, it's 428 00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:08,000 Speaker 1: the natural response of the kid to be like, Okay, 429 00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:10,480 Speaker 1: what's a significant response? I mean, that's the number one 430 00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:13,200 Speaker 1: question that should be asked. It's actually worse than that, though, 431 00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:16,760 Speaker 1: because what he said initially it's they're making fun of 432 00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:19,520 Speaker 1: Doocey for asking for clarification, is oh yeah, like we 433 00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:22,359 Speaker 1: would tell you he was asking for the clarification because 434 00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:25,359 Speaker 1: the initial Biden gaff, which they admitted was a gaff 435 00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:29,240 Speaker 1: because they walked it back right away, was respond in kind. 436 00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:35,280 Speaker 1: If someone stab me, I'm going to stab you back. 437 00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:38,240 Speaker 1: That is responding in kind. And when you're talking about 438 00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:42,720 Speaker 1: chemical weapon usage. That's what that phrase would mean. Now, 439 00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:45,119 Speaker 1: this is one of three things Biden said, although I 440 00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:47,359 Speaker 1: will say the only one that I thought, and they 441 00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:49,120 Speaker 1: did walk it back to but was a little when 442 00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:51,320 Speaker 1: he said, you'll see with your own eyes the Polish 443 00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:54,080 Speaker 1: I mean the Ukrainian people who are going to stand 444 00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:57,080 Speaker 1: up against the Russians. I mean, you know, you could 445 00:25:57,080 --> 00:25:59,240 Speaker 1: say that that he could see it on No on 446 00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:01,359 Speaker 1: the news or whatever. So that one I thought. The 447 00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:04,479 Speaker 1: big problem was obviously the regime change comment about how 448 00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:06,919 Speaker 1: Putin can't stay in power. That was the biggest. But 449 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:10,240 Speaker 1: this one about chemical weapons was also clearly sloppy. But 450 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:13,200 Speaker 1: notice what's happened here. This is just you know, clean 451 00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:16,560 Speaker 1: up crew on aisle. Oh my god, Joe Biden just 452 00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:20,760 Speaker 1: said something. Again. You have Colbert making it seem as 453 00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:23,520 Speaker 1: though the person who's trying to in this case do 454 00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:28,400 Speaker 1: see at Fox trying to get clarity and therefore accountability 455 00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:31,720 Speaker 1: for a blundered statement from the president. The person asking 456 00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:36,239 Speaker 1: the question is the problem, not the clearly not up 457 00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:40,200 Speaker 1: for the job, senile commander in chief who is making 458 00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:43,640 Speaker 1: these gaffs. He's not the problem. That's the whole point 459 00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:45,560 Speaker 1: of this. And that's what he tries to achieve with 460 00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:48,520 Speaker 1: the with laughter. They're just propagandists for the regime. I mean, 461 00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:53,320 Speaker 1: it's it's gross. It's unseemly what Colbert and these others 462 00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:56,520 Speaker 1: do and under the banner of comedy. Ha ha ha. 463 00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:59,879 Speaker 1: Yeah whatever whatever makes us the most effective toadies for 464 00:26:59,920 --> 00:27:05,240 Speaker 1: the Biden regime. It's not funny. This is also unseemly. O. J. 465 00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:08,399 Speaker 1: Simpson who killed two people in cold blood with a 466 00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:11,879 Speaker 1: knife and got away with it buck He weighed in 467 00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:16,320 Speaker 1: on Will Smith's slap and said, no, that was inappropriate. Listen, 468 00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:23,119 Speaker 1: it was unfortunate. I think Will was wrong. Look, I 469 00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:26,479 Speaker 1: understood the feeling now. In my life, I've been through 470 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:28,680 Speaker 1: a lot of craft and I was raising two young kids, 471 00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:32,240 Speaker 1: and every comedian in the country had OJ routine. And 472 00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:35,879 Speaker 1: don't think I wouldn't want to be slap the couple 473 00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:39,320 Speaker 1: of those guys. But you got except it's it's human. 474 00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:42,520 Speaker 1: I didn't even think that was all that increasius. I 475 00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:47,159 Speaker 1: thought it was a semi unfunny joke. But I don't know, 476 00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:49,960 Speaker 1: I don't get it. I know this after what happened 477 00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:52,240 Speaker 1: to me in Las Vegas. If I would have done 478 00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:55,520 Speaker 1: that in front of a billion people watching around the world. 479 00:27:56,040 --> 00:28:01,160 Speaker 1: They would have given me life without I'm just saying right, well, well, 480 00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:03,680 Speaker 1: to be fair, Will Smith didn't step on stage with 481 00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:07,080 Speaker 1: a you know, bloody knight and stab people to death. 482 00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:09,720 Speaker 1: By the way I've heard this, buck, I was out 483 00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:11,600 Speaker 1: in Vegas, you know, for the NC Double A tournament. 484 00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:16,959 Speaker 1: I was out to dinner. There are women throwing themselves 485 00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:21,560 Speaker 1: at OJ like desperate to date him, desperate to sleep 486 00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:24,520 Speaker 1: with him.

He's certainly not rich because they 501 00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:10,120 Speaker 1: took all his assets, but they think because he's famous 502 00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:13,080 Speaker 1: they want to spend time with him.

We just had 543 00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:28,280 Speaker 1: we just had Stephen Colbert call for the SLA exception 544 00:31:28,560 --> 00:31:32,440 Speaker 1: for a journalist Doucy because remember, the Libs don't want 545 00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:35,320 Speaker 1: anybody to ask real questions of Biden. They don't want this. 546 00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:38,080 Speaker 1: This bothers them. They pretend they want journalism, they actually 547 00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:41,320 Speaker 1: don't want journalism. Democrats don't want that. And then there 548 00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:43,720 Speaker 1: was this which I think people were saying felt almost 549 00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:46,479 Speaker 1: like John Stewart. Now, now John Stewart has has been 550 00:31:46,520 --> 00:31:49,600 Speaker 1: a propagandist for the left for a very long time. 551 00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:53,800 Speaker 1: I mean he is a huge lib And it really 552 00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:57,120 Speaker 1: kind of created an art form, or built this art 553 00:31:57,120 --> 00:32:01,120 Speaker 1: form of comedy political common Harry as a form of 554 00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:03,760 Speaker 1: propaganda where you don't have to really answer for what 555 00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:06,280 Speaker 1: you say because ha haha, man, I'm just making jokes. 556 00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:08,920 Speaker 1: It's puppets on this show before I come on the air, 557 00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:10,760 Speaker 1: you know, because he had the crank Ganker Show whatever. 558 00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:15,000 Speaker 1: That's the way that he was doing things for a 559 00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:16,760 Speaker 1: long time. And now he's kind of back, I guess 560 00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:18,480 Speaker 1: with an apple plush. Did you see some of this 561 00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:20,600 Speaker 1: Clay the Apple plus saw the clips. I don't know 562 00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:22,360 Speaker 1: how it's getting to the point now, Buck where I 563 00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:25,520 Speaker 1: really feel like an old man. I can't sometimes find 564 00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:28,160 Speaker 1: shows anymore, right, like I've got I feel like we've 565 00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:31,560 Speaker 1: got every different service we're signed up for, but there's 566 00:32:31,560 --> 00:32:34,680 Speaker 1: so many different places I can't even find things. So 567 00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:36,560 Speaker 1: I don't even know how to find the John Stewart show. 568 00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:41,640 Speaker 1: But I've seen the clips. Here's what he says about. Well, 569 00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:43,920 Speaker 1: you know this is the there's a whole the problem 570 00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:47,120 Speaker 1: with white people is, of course John Stewart white there, 571 00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:49,400 Speaker 1: but the problem with which plenty of white liberals love 572 00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:51,959 Speaker 1: to do this whole I'm fighting against white supremacy thing. 573 00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:55,520 Speaker 1: It's virtue signaling. It's pathetic, that's what they do. But 574 00:32:55,720 --> 00:32:59,920 Speaker 1: here you go John Stewart showing how wokeness doesn't even 575 00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:03,560 Speaker 1: really makes sense. And after you're a multi millionaire benefiting 576 00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:06,160 Speaker 1: from the system tens of millions of dollars paid to 577 00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:09,880 Speaker 1: be a Democrat, chill, you go on this show now 578 00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:14,040 Speaker 1: and say the following play clib nine. I think the 579 00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:17,560 Speaker 1: conversation is then this, we have an awful history. It's 580 00:33:17,800 --> 00:33:20,800 Speaker 1: it's remnants are still also have a great history. Joe, 581 00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:23,080 Speaker 1: say it again, but you also have a great history. 582 00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:28,120 Speaker 1: But I think you're minimizing it. You're suggesting that pooling 583 00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:32,840 Speaker 1: today white supremacy, you are minimizing actual white supremacy. You 584 00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:36,520 Speaker 1: have an incredible diversity to get them all Americans. It's 585 00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:40,200 Speaker 1: not I disagree that you generalize all white people. The 586 00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:45,200 Speaker 1: systems that were racists that were put in place. That systems, Yes, 587 00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:47,760 Speaker 1: the systems that were put in place. I'd like you 588 00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:50,440 Speaker 1: to explain exactly what they are. Well, I thought I 589 00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:53,120 Speaker 1: explained it earlier about the GI Bill and about what 590 00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:55,960 Speaker 1: the new deal. That's one thing I want to know 591 00:33:56,000 --> 00:34:01,440 Speaker 1: about these systems. I just explained it housing. That's a one. 592 00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:04,320 Speaker 1: And I agree that Andrew, you're not living on the 593 00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:08,799 Speaker 1: same planet we are. Honestly, my god, I don't think 594 00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:11,640 Speaker 1: you are. If you are not living, I think you 595 00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:14,960 Speaker 1: are not living in the planet most Americans alve by 596 00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:16,680 Speaker 1: the way. I mean Andrew Sullivan, of course, I think 597 00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:21,080 Speaker 1: is speaking sinse here. This whole this obsession with talking 598 00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:26,000 Speaker 1: about how white supremacist America is today, it never actually 599 00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:29,759 Speaker 1: sustains itself as an argument when it's subjected to any criticism. 600 00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:32,360 Speaker 1: And then you do what John Stewart does. You start cursing, 601 00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:34,080 Speaker 1: and oh, you just don't You just don't want to 602 00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:36,160 Speaker 1: have a conversation. You don't want to have a conversation 603 00:34:36,160 --> 00:34:39,839 Speaker 1: about racism. The number one response that I would have 604 00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:43,280 Speaker 1: for anybody out there that finds themselves in these conversations 605 00:34:43,360 --> 00:34:45,480 Speaker 1: like John Stewart. You know where there is a white 606 00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:48,319 Speaker 1: liberal that wants to tell you that America is an 607 00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:52,360 Speaker 1: awful place and rooted in white supremacy, Just say what 608 00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:55,319 Speaker 1: is true. America does not have a perfect history. No 609 00:34:55,880 --> 00:34:59,160 Speaker 1: person or entity has a perfect history. Right, Let's be clear, 610 00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:04,200 Speaker 1: But if America was a fundamentally white supremacist nation today, 611 00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:07,719 Speaker 1: how do Asian men make more money than anybody else 612 00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:10,200 Speaker 1: in the country. This would be a huge failure of 613 00:35:10,200 --> 00:35:14,239 Speaker 1: white supremacy, right, that we would allow Asian minorities men 614 00:35:14,719 --> 00:35:18,200 Speaker 1: to arrive in this country and earn more than anyone else, 615 00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:21,160 Speaker 1: any other ethnic group. Which is true. And there isn't 616 00:35:21,160 --> 00:35:23,759 Speaker 1: a response, right, they don't have a response because that 617 00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:27,359 Speaker 1: is tangible evidence of the fact that America is not 618 00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:32,520 Speaker 1: a white supremacist country. Because Asian people, Asian men in particular, 619 00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:37,200 Speaker 1: in this modern era, are more successful economically than any 620 00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:42,080 Speaker 1: group of people in America. Clay Nigerian immigrants to America 621 00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:46,960 Speaker 1: make more per capita than white Americans born in this 622 00:35:47,040 --> 00:35:52,520 Speaker 1: country Nigerian immigrants. So again a fascinating failure of the 623 00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:55,719 Speaker 1: quote white supremacist system that we're all supposed to be 624 00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:58,360 Speaker 1: living in all the time. But this has become really 625 00:35:58,400 --> 00:36:01,120 Speaker 1: a religious obsession the left. I mean, this is their 626 00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:03,680 Speaker 1: their worldview is that we were all soaked in this 627 00:36:03,719 --> 00:36:08,040 Speaker 1: country in this constant white supremacy, and it's something we're 628 00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:13,040 Speaker 1: gonna have to continue to dissect and pull apart and address, 629 00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:15,840 Speaker 1: because well, what is the alternative. We're all supposed to 630 00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:19,080 Speaker 1: sit here and you're supposed to apologize, apologize to them, 631 00:36:19,160 --> 00:36:23,120 Speaker 1: and for what I think the alternative is what they're 632 00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:26,160 Speaker 1: trying to create. I really believe this is a system 633 00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:31,000 Speaker 1: whereby you destroy the entire foundation of America. The Constitution 634 00:36:31,080 --> 00:36:33,799 Speaker 1: is not legitimate because there were white supremacists, there were 635 00:36:33,800 --> 00:36:36,640 Speaker 1: slave owners who wrote it, the Declaration of Independence, all 636 00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:40,279 Speaker 1: of it, the foundational document documents of our country are 637 00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:45,400 Speaker 1: in their view, so stained by historical neglect and error 638 00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:48,480 Speaker 1: as it pertains to race that they shouldn't exist anymore. 639 00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:51,719 Speaker 1: They want to destroy the foundation of this country. I 640 00:36:51,719 --> 00:36:53,880 Speaker 1: really do believe that's the essence of what they're attempting. 641 00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:56,960 Speaker 1: And we want to defend the foundation and the greatness 642 00:36:57,040 --> 00:36:59,960 Speaker 1: of this country and save the country as much as 643 00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:02,560 Speaker 1: as possible, and all of you listening are helping us.
