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 --> 00:00:07,720
Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. Welcome in everybody Friday edition of The

3
00:00:07,760 --> 00:00:12,840
Speaker 1: Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show. And we have quite

4
00:00:13,520 --> 00:00:18,639
Speaker 1: an extravaganza plan for everybody today. For one thing, you know,

5
00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:22,880
Speaker 1: they've now put out an axios a five point plan

6
00:00:23,079 --> 00:00:27,120
Speaker 1: for how Donald Trump plans to go after Rhonda Santis,

7
00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:31,120
Speaker 1: who is not yet even a candidate for president. Plan.

8
00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:34,120
Speaker 1: I will talk a bit about which ones of these

9
00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:36,839
Speaker 1: we think are likely to hit, which ones are probably

10
00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:40,440
Speaker 1: going to be a swing and a miss. So that's

11
00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:46,040
Speaker 1: going to be interesting. Also, Columbia University, the first university

12
00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:48,640
Speaker 1: of its kinds certainly the first Ivy League school to

13
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:53,320
Speaker 1: drop SAT and ACT scores entirely. You may have seen this.

14
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:58,200
Speaker 1: I think we all know what that's all about. I

15
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:02,760
Speaker 1: think we understand what the situation is. We will discuss that.

16
00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:07,080
Speaker 1: And also a lot of these ads by or rather

17
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:11,600
Speaker 1: these articles Clay that they're writing about the situation of

18
00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:19,200
Speaker 1: Florida is specifically an inadvertent advertisement for Florida. Seems he's

19
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:22,080
Speaker 1: have you seen some of these? If ron Descantis gets

20
00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:26,360
Speaker 1: his way, Florida will become some kind of right Wing Paradise.

21
00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:30,279
Speaker 1: You go, oh wow, let's us kind a great actually,

22
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:31,920
Speaker 1: so I'd sign me up for that. Oh and also

23
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:39,920
Speaker 1: a Hershey's chocolate campaign involving a transwoman that I would

24
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:41,399
Speaker 1: like to we would like to speak to you about

25
00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:44,800
Speaker 1: here coming up in a few minutes, but first stop today.

26
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:47,320
Speaker 1: You know, we talked to you a lot about crime

27
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:50,720
Speaker 1: here on the show. And Mayor Laurie Lightfoot. I think

28
00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 1: it's important to note that she didn't just lose, she

29
00:01:54,960 --> 00:02:00,160
Speaker 1: got crushed. She was she was repudiated. Don't listen to

30
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:06,240
Speaker 1: the narrative around that the Libs put forward on this stuff, right,

31
00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:09,360
Speaker 1: don't don't listen to what they're trying to say. Lorie

32
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:15,400
Speaker 1: Lightfoot was repudiated by her own previous voters. There are

33
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:17,359
Speaker 1: people in Chicago. We're saying, Lorie life, it's going to

34
00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 1: be great. And then it was, oh my god, she's

35
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:23,600
Speaker 1: horrible at her job. We have to get rid of her. Okay,

36
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:26,000
Speaker 1: So there's a little bit of a concern here. That's

37
00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:29,079
Speaker 1: a that's a harbinger perhaps of things to come. That's

38
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:31,080
Speaker 1: a little bit of an indicator, right, So that brings

39
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 1: us to the DC crime Bill. Clay, I think it's

40
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:39,320
Speaker 1: very interesting that right now you have Joe Biden who

41
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:42,160
Speaker 1: has come forward to say that he will not Well,

42
00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:44,280
Speaker 1: let me step back to explain what's going on. The

43
00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:50,680
Speaker 1: DC Council passed a crime bill that would eliminate a

44
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:56,880
Speaker 1: lot of mandatory sentences, lower penalties for violent offenses, including

45
00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:04,400
Speaker 1: carjackings and robberies. Are jacking assailants are just not just

46
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:07,720
Speaker 1: not being or rather they should be punished more, I'm sorry,

47
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:10,560
Speaker 1: less severely. I'm trying to get this right than they

48
00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:12,919
Speaker 1: have in the past, so they're not getting the second

49
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:15,720
Speaker 1: chances that they deserve. Over and over and over again.

50
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:22,880
Speaker 1: The DC City Council unanimously approved this. And now you

51
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:26,000
Speaker 1: have the Republican because DC is a federal protectorate, the

52
00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:30,480
Speaker 1: Republican Congress, and now the Republican Republican Party in Congress

53
00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:32,240
Speaker 1: and then with the help of some Democrats in the

54
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 1: Senate have passed a block of this DC crime bill,

55
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:41,160
Speaker 1: and Joe Biden has come forward Clay to say he

56
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 1: will not veto the Republican led veto of the DC

57
00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:52,440
Speaker 1: soft on crime bill. What's this telling you? So for

58
00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:55,560
Speaker 1: people out there who don't realize or haven't thought much

59
00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:57,360
Speaker 1: about it, because a lot of people don't think about

60
00:03:57,400 --> 00:04:00,760
Speaker 1: Washington DC and what laws and regular lations they can

61
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:05,720
Speaker 1: or cannot pass. Congress has the ability to oversee every

62
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 1: promulgation of a rule or law that occurs in DC,

63
00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:13,480
Speaker 1: and they have an oversight board, and if they decide

64
00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:17,000
Speaker 1: they don't like what DC is doing, they can overturn

65
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:21,680
Speaker 1: those laws those regulations inside of the District of Columbia.

66
00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:25,840
Speaker 1: They haven't done it, Buck, in thirty years, and you

67
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:29,839
Speaker 1: lived in DC. I lived in DC on I believe

68
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:34,120
Speaker 1: it's still there. Every DC license plate it actually says

69
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:39,080
Speaker 1: taxation without representation. Because there's been this argument in DC

70
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:41,719
Speaker 1: we need to be made the fifty first state. We

71
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 1: need two senators, We need our congress person who can

72
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:50,880
Speaker 1: actually have a full realm of congressional responsibilities. I think

73
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:53,520
Speaker 1: there's seven hundred thousand people who live in Washington, DC,

74
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:56,720
Speaker 1: if I'm not mistaken, in the District of Columbia right now.

75
00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 1: So Buck, we talked earlier this week. I believe right now,

76
00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:06,800
Speaker 1: murder is up forty percent in Washington DC so far

77
00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:11,520
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty three. Crime in carjackings. I think men's

78
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 1: car theft is up over one hundred percent. I believe

79
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:17,920
Speaker 1: is the number so far in twenty twenty three. And

80
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,320
Speaker 1: so what you've got is, and I think it ties

81
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:23,360
Speaker 1: in very well with this Lori lightfoot race. You've got

82
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:28,040
Speaker 1: Democrats who are aware that defund the police, aka the

83
00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:31,840
Speaker 1: single dumbest political slogan of the twenty first century, is

84
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:36,120
Speaker 1: a massive issue for them. And so you said yesterday,

85
00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:37,479
Speaker 1: I think it's true, and we've said it before on

86
00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:42,520
Speaker 1: this program. Biden did never endorse defund the police. Specifically,

87
00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:45,279
Speaker 1: he actually fought back against it, which is to his

88
00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:47,960
Speaker 1: credit because this thing was crazy on the left wing

89
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,719
Speaker 1: and his party. And now a lot of Democrats that

90
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:53,800
Speaker 1: are in competitive districts, either in the House or in

91
00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:57,440
Speaker 1: Senate races, are saying, we cannot be seen as soft

92
00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:01,400
Speaker 1: on crime. We can't get Lorie lightfooted. And so Republicans

93
00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:04,680
Speaker 1: are leading the charge. And this soft on crime bill

94
00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:08,360
Speaker 1: in DC is going to be repealed. Joe Biden is

95
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:10,599
Speaker 1: not going to veto it. This is a big win,

96
00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:13,960
Speaker 1: the first big win, I would say, in terms of

97
00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:18,880
Speaker 1: legislation for Republicans since they took back the House without

98
00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:23,400
Speaker 1: that level of top cover from the party, without Joe

99
00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:27,599
Speaker 1: Biden saying yeah, fine, you know, we're we're gonna we're

100
00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:31,000
Speaker 1: gonna stop this and have DC pass its soft on crime,

101
00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:34,040
Speaker 1: the DC Council pass it's offt on crime bill. This

102
00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:37,359
Speaker 1: is a signal to other Democrats you're gonna have to

103
00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:39,840
Speaker 1: get if you're in a competitive, competitive district or a

104
00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:42,880
Speaker 1: competitive race anywhere in the country going into twenty twenty four,

105
00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:47,880
Speaker 1: you better get on board with public safety. Yes, this

106
00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:53,240
Speaker 1: this whole Oh, let's just let's just defund police and

107
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:56,280
Speaker 1: pass bills that anybody who reads them or past laws

108
00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:59,320
Speaker 1: that anybody who reads them understands, just makes it easier

109
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:02,400
Speaker 1: for miminals to do what they're doing. If you do

110
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:04,239
Speaker 1: that as a Democrat and you're in a competitive place,

111
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:06,800
Speaker 1: Democrats not going to be able to save you. Democrat

112
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:09,080
Speaker 1: machinery is not gonna be able to kick in. So

113
00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:11,440
Speaker 1: it's get with the program time for a lot of

114
00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:14,120
Speaker 1: them in these competitive areas. And by the way, for

115
00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:19,440
Speaker 1: Joe Biden too, for his reelection. He recognizes that. And

116
00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:22,160
Speaker 1: this is why I've said this very early on, and

117
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:24,840
Speaker 1: I think it's very important for the GOP to understand this.

118
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:29,960
Speaker 1: We're not even though Biden has done a lot of

119
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,320
Speaker 1: things that you would have gotten from a Bernie Sanders

120
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:36,480
Speaker 1: presidency or an AOC presidency. Even though he has pushed

121
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:39,520
Speaker 1: a lot of far left stuff from the White House,

122
00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:43,040
Speaker 1: that was then, this is now. You're going to start

123
00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:47,720
Speaker 1: to see a move toward the center. Not that Biden

124
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:51,320
Speaker 1: is a centrist, but you'll see movements towards the center

125
00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 1: to protect his flank, so to speak, from some of

126
00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:59,040
Speaker 1: the attacks that would come from the far left. Craziness

127
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:01,320
Speaker 1: because in a general election, that stuff is going to

128
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:03,720
Speaker 1: be a real liability. I mean it just given the

129
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 1: amount of focus, attention, voter engagement, and crime is something

130
00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:13,400
Speaker 1: that Democrats cannot They cannot defend what they were saying

131
00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:15,600
Speaker 1: in twenties twenty. They cannot defend it. So they're just

132
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:17,800
Speaker 1: going to pretend like they didn't say it. And Joe

133
00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 1: Biden's going to be a big part of that, which

134
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:22,320
Speaker 1: also means I think he's going to be a challenge

135
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:25,640
Speaker 1: to defeat because he's gonna say, oh, well, I never

136
00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:27,880
Speaker 1: did that, that was other, that was other people. I

137
00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:32,400
Speaker 1: support cops, Now that's bullcrap. But the truth is a

138
00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:34,440
Speaker 1: lot of people will say, well, I guess he wasn't

139
00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:37,880
Speaker 1: a defund police guy. I think what you're seeing also

140
00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:41,400
Speaker 1: is who's the political candidate who has run the best

141
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:44,840
Speaker 1: campaign on crime so far since Joe Biden became president,

142
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:50,600
Speaker 1: I think it's Leezelden. Leez Elden basically one Republicans the

143
00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:55,640
Speaker 1: House by maniacally focusing on the crime issues. In New

144
00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:58,719
Speaker 1: York City, in particular, he flipped a lot of Hispanic,

145
00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:01,920
Speaker 1: Asian and black voter over to the Republican Party who

146
00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:05,200
Speaker 1: would have never voted Republican before because of the frustration

147
00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:09,520
Speaker 1: surrounding crime. And so I think if you combine what

148
00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:12,480
Speaker 1: Leezelden did in New York City and what we now

149
00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:16,400
Speaker 1: have seen in Chicago Buck, and even in LA when

150
00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:20,280
Speaker 1: Karen Bass won, she basically won on we've got to

151
00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:21,960
Speaker 1: clean up LA. We got to do something with this

152
00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:26,120
Speaker 1: homeless homelessness problem, We've got to do address all of

153
00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:29,080
Speaker 1: the crime that's going on here. I think Democrats are

154
00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:32,360
Speaker 1: a little bit terrified of this because when Morey Lightfoot

155
00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:36,400
Speaker 1: Buck goes from winning seventy three percent of the vote

156
00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:38,960
Speaker 1: for mayor in twenty nineteen in Chicago, she won all

157
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:43,920
Speaker 1: fifty awards, she won all but twenty individual precincts, over

158
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:47,200
Speaker 1: two thousand of them she won, and eighty three percent

159
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:49,880
Speaker 1: of people voted against her in Chicago on Tuesday. Now

160
00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:52,040
Speaker 1: we'll see who wins that runoff race, but the guy

161
00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:54,440
Speaker 1: who was favored to win it is a tough on

162
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,800
Speaker 1: crime Democrat who is probably as close to a Republican

163
00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:01,840
Speaker 1: as Chicago is willing to consider electing. Right now, and

164
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:06,400
Speaker 1: everybody out there there antenna have gone up because I

165
00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:09,000
Speaker 1: don't think abortion is going to be an issue, And

166
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:10,599
Speaker 1: let me explain what I mean by that, and I

167
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,040
Speaker 1: think you agree with me. Buck In twenty twenty two,

168
00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:15,840
Speaker 1: I do think abortion was an issue. I think most

169
00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:20,959
Speaker 1: people are not seeing what Democrats told them they would see,

170
00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:24,480
Speaker 1: where you feel like your under siege in your state

171
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:26,640
Speaker 1: all of a sudden over abortion. I don't think it

172
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:30,280
Speaker 1: registers that much many people. They're best shot to use

173
00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:34,920
Speaker 1: abortion as a wedge issue in favor of the Democrats

174
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:38,840
Speaker 1: was this last election cycle. From here on out, Actually,

175
00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:40,800
Speaker 1: it's going to be tougher and tougher because they're going

176
00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:43,080
Speaker 1: to be the one saying, yeah, you know, partial birth

177
00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:47,080
Speaker 1: abortion and third trimester abortions, and they're going to have

178
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:49,600
Speaker 1: to explain at a state level because people are gonna

179
00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:51,800
Speaker 1: say no, there actually is abortion is legal in some

180
00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:55,040
Speaker 1: of these states, it's much less legal in other states.

181
00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:58,840
Speaker 1: You know, depends. Obviously there's a huge range. But now

182
00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:00,920
Speaker 1: that more and more people be exposed to what the

183
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:03,880
Speaker 1: reality of a post row world is, I think it becomes.

184
00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:06,640
Speaker 1: I mean, there's still gonna be a lot of fights

185
00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:09,199
Speaker 1: at the state level that world, those boundaries should be set,

186
00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:12,160
Speaker 1: But at a national level, there's not going to be

187
00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:16,000
Speaker 1: any ability to get away with abortions basically illegal now

188
00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:18,600
Speaker 1: because that's just not it's not true. You know, I

189
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:21,320
Speaker 1: wish it were, but it's not true. So here we

190
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:25,359
Speaker 1: are looking at where Democrats are going to be most vulnerable.

191
00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:28,080
Speaker 1: It's tough to it's tough to know on the economy,

192
00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:29,920
Speaker 1: and I know right now people are saying, oh my gosh,

193
00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:32,440
Speaker 1: but look at where Yeah, but how is it gonna

194
00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:35,199
Speaker 1: be twelve months from now, Because even if it's not great,

195
00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:38,000
Speaker 1: if it if it's a credible case to be made

196
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:40,319
Speaker 1: that things are getting a little bit better, they're gonna say,

197
00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:42,440
Speaker 1: you know, the work's not done and we're recovery. So

198
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:47,000
Speaker 1: it's tough to get ahead of what the economic dynamics

199
00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:50,320
Speaker 1: will be for the election now because we just don't know. Crime, though,

200
00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:52,640
Speaker 1: has been a multi year. This has been a multi

201
00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:57,040
Speaker 1: really multi decade, but certainly multi year progression of the

202
00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:59,959
Speaker 1: Progressives to get it. I mean the DC city counts.

203
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:04,320
Speaker 1: Are these people crazy? You wonder given what's going on

204
00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:06,959
Speaker 1: in DC? I mean you mentioned carjack carjacking is different

205
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:10,240
Speaker 1: from car ff. Carjacking is give me your car, I'll murder. Yes,

206
00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:13,600
Speaker 1: this is a violent crime there bringing about they think

207
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:17,360
Speaker 1: carjackers are being too harshly punished. There are more carjackers

208
00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:20,160
Speaker 1: now than DC scene in decades. Think about how tough

209
00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:22,840
Speaker 1: it is, given how much crime has already gone up,

210
00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:27,319
Speaker 1: particularly murder, to suddenly be up forty percent more on

211
00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:31,319
Speaker 1: murders in twenty twenty two. And I think you're right.

212
00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:34,520
Speaker 1: The crime issue is going to resonate. And this is

213
00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:37,880
Speaker 1: Biden's attempt to inoculate himself in some way. And certainly

214
00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:40,880
Speaker 1: if you're Joe Mansion, or you are running in Montana

215
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:43,240
Speaker 1: or you're running in Ohio, there are a lot of

216
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:45,880
Speaker 1: Democrats who know that this is vulnerability for them. Let's

217
00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:48,720
Speaker 1: bring this home to Okay, this isn't because we obviously

218
00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:51,280
Speaker 1: you're talking about country three hundred and three hundred. I

219
00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:53,120
Speaker 1: don't know with all the illegals now probably three hundred

220
00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:57,320
Speaker 1: and forty million people. But you think about where will

221
00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:00,199
Speaker 1: this matter, this narrative we're talking about today, Why is

222
00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:03,840
Speaker 1: Joe Biden rulling to take heat from his own party?

223
00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:06,600
Speaker 1: And you know, AOC and others are out there, Oh

224
00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:10,079
Speaker 1: my gosh, this is DC should also notice they always

225
00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:12,480
Speaker 1: do this. They're not really arguing on the merits of

226
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:16,679
Speaker 1: what's going on. The Democrat argument isn't no, this this

227
00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:20,000
Speaker 1: let carjackers out of prison sooner bill is a great idea.

228
00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:22,840
Speaker 1: That's not what they're saying. They're saying, Oh, but home

229
00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:25,280
Speaker 1: rule for DC or whatever it is. You know, DC

230
00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:27,880
Speaker 1: should be able to you know, control itself, which is

231
00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:30,520
Speaker 1: not actually, as you already explain, not actually the way

232
00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:33,480
Speaker 1: it works. Usually it's allowed to, but it doesn't mean

233
00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:38,080
Speaker 1: it gets to. It's a different thing. Look at Wisconsin, Michigan.

234
00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:41,880
Speaker 1: Look at the suburbs of Milwaukee, Look at the suburbs

235
00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:45,720
Speaker 1: of and you know, redder areas of Detroit. Look at

236
00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:50,760
Speaker 1: Georgia and the suburbs of Atlanta. These are places where

237
00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:54,120
Speaker 1: the crime narrative, oh yeah, moves the needle. And those

238
00:13:54,160 --> 00:14:00,120
Speaker 1: are states for suburban swing voters, for suburban college educated voters.

239
00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:02,640
Speaker 1: For you know, for soccer moms in the burbs. The

240
00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:05,040
Speaker 1: crime thing does move the needle, and it does it

241
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:07,920
Speaker 1: in key states, and Democrats know it. So paying attention

242
00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:11,520
Speaker 1: to what worries them is very good. Meaning worries Democrats

243
00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:15,640
Speaker 1: is very good politics. My friends out there who are

244

Speaker 1: seek out the truth the Clay Travis said Buck Sexton Show.

264
00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:21,040
Speaker 1: Welcome back in Clay Travis buck Sexton Show. We've been

265
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:23,560
Speaker 1: talking a little bit over the past two weeks as

266
00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:28,840
Speaker 1: the story took control all over the country about this

267
00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:33,720
Speaker 1: Alec Murdoch trial, and Buck, it didn't happen very long.

268
00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:35,480
Speaker 1: We told you that they were going to toss it

269
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:39,880
Speaker 1: to the jury. Yesterday evening, shortly after the jury took

270
00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:44,440
Speaker 1: the case, they found Murdoch guilty of double murder. And

271
00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:47,080
Speaker 1: he's now been sentenced and will spend the rest of

272
00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:50,640
Speaker 1: his life behind bars for the double murder of his

273
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:54,600
Speaker 1: wife and youngest son. And so I wanted to make

274
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:57,560
Speaker 1: sure we put a bow on that story. I told

275
00:15:57,560 --> 00:15:59,840
Speaker 1: you yesterday the only thing that would have stunned me

276
00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:03,040
Speaker 1: is an acquittal. And I could have seen if there

277
00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:05,680
Speaker 1: were one or two jurors, maybe you get a hung jury,

278
00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:10,200
Speaker 1: somebody who's not interested in actually making a decision because

279
00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:13,560
Speaker 1: of a lifelong connection to the Murdock family in some way,

280
00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:16,000
Speaker 1: form or fashion. But I think they got it right,

281
00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:20,800
Speaker 1: and you became a late adherent to this media frenzy

282
00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:24,800
Speaker 1: watching a couple of documentaries or a documentary on Netflix.

283
00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:26,560
Speaker 1: You think they got it right based on everything you

284
00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:29,720
Speaker 1: saw A slam dunk case. I mean, it couldn't have been.

285
00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:32,200
Speaker 1: I think it couldn't have been more obvious to the

286
00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:34,600
Speaker 1: jury what happened here. I mean, let's just start with

287
00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:40,680
Speaker 1: putting aside everything else. Your wife and your son are murdered,

288
00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:43,560
Speaker 1: one of your sons is murdered, and you're lying about

289
00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:47,520
Speaker 1: where you are during the murder. That's I don't even

290
00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:50,440
Speaker 1: know how much you have to get into all the

291
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:53,480
Speaker 1: other past. That really tough for a jury to get

292
00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:55,680
Speaker 1: past that. You know, you're you're you lie and hidden

293
00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:57,800
Speaker 1: by the way he admitted he lied, that's part of it.

294
00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:00,160
Speaker 1: That so it's not we think he lied about where

295
00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:02,400
Speaker 1: it was. You lied about where you were during the murder.

296
00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:06,080
Speaker 1: That's a big problem. Nobody I think out there who

297
00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:08,120
Speaker 1: can think about what they would do if they ever

298
00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:10,800
Speaker 1: had such an unfortunate thing to find out that one

299
00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:14,320
Speaker 1: of their family members was murdered. When your immediate reaction

300
00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:17,760
Speaker 1: to that is to why about your where you were

301
00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:21,159
Speaker 1: when that occurred. It's impossible, I think, for the jury

302
00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:25,720
Speaker 1: to trust you on anything, because most people would would

303
00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:28,240
Speaker 1: do whatever they could to help the police solve a

304
00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:30,960
Speaker 1: crime like that. I mean, I also think Alec Murdoch

305
00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:34,720
Speaker 1: Murdoch rather was It's funny when you watch the news

306
00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:37,160
Speaker 1: coverage over they pronounced his name like fifteen different ways

307
00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:40,840
Speaker 1: course of the trial. I think that that was a

308
00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:44,239
Speaker 1: family that was involved in more than even just these

309
00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:46,320
Speaker 1: two murders. I think that's quite clear from the evidence

310
00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:49,600
Speaker 1: up at this point. So there's more than there's justice

311
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:53,120
Speaker 1: even beyond the two murders that he has been sent

312
00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:57,360
Speaker 1: away for, because the whole Murdoch reign of terror is over.

313
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:00,520
Speaker 1: No doubt, I think they got it right as people

314
00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:04,800
Speaker 1: of South Carolina jury getting another case right there. If

00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:07,240
Speaker 1: lines of truth. So is that Morgan Wallen? Is that

332
00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:12,479
Speaker 1: famous Morgan Wallen? It's so interesting because I'd say about

333
00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:17,320
Speaker 1: half our audience yesterday on the very uh small small

334
00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:19,600
Speaker 1: sample we have to go with on Twitter, because I

335
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:21,920
Speaker 1: think about one percent of the people listened to the

336
00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:24,879
Speaker 1: show actually use Twitter. I'd say it's my fifty fifty

337
00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:29,120
Speaker 1: mister Clay that people had heard of this most famous

338
00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:33,040
Speaker 1: of country music stars who shut down downtown Nashville yesterday.

339
00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:35,439
Speaker 1: And I'm just gonna say I still haven't received my

340
00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:38,000
Speaker 1: invite to the next Morgan Wallen Concert's a little sad

341
00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:42,159
Speaker 1: about that, but yeah, look he did shut down the city, um,

342
00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:45,240
Speaker 1: and he's gonna have a free concert tonight in Nashville,

343
00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:48,840
Speaker 1: which will probably be a heck of a show. And

344
00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:51,959
Speaker 1: uh yeah, look, I was kind of surprised by how

345
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:54,760
Speaker 1: many people had no idea who he was, and I

346
00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:58,760
Speaker 1: would just reiterate, this is what living in Tennessee, um

347
00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:01,840
Speaker 1: is likely to I guess I'm way more plugged in

348
00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:04,560
Speaker 1: on country music singers than some of our audience. Now,

349
00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:07,080
Speaker 1: there are also a lot of people out there in

350
00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:10,000
Speaker 1: the audience, to be fair, who don't know who Rihanna

351
00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:13,880
Speaker 1: is and don't know who jay Z is. Right Like, so,

352
00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:16,880
Speaker 1: if you're in your sixties, seventies or eighties out there,

353
00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:20,000
Speaker 1: I wouldn't expect for you to necessarily be aware of

354
00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:23,159
Speaker 1: all of the current artist Although I did see did

355
00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:25,800
Speaker 1: you see this story? Buck the I don't remember which

356
00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:27,760
Speaker 1: newspaper it was, had a big puff piece about how

357
00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:30,439
Speaker 1: Merrick Garland is a huge fan of Taylor Swift. I

358
00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:32,879
Speaker 1: did see that, did see that? Yeah, they really are

359
00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:34,440
Speaker 1: working hard to make me not want to listen to

360
00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:36,879
Speaker 1: Taylor Swift music. Anymore. It's really it's really kind of

361
00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:39,399
Speaker 1: a bummer, totally expecting for him to show up in

362
00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:41,879
Speaker 1: the next music video for Taylor Swift. Now, you know,

363
00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:44,440
Speaker 1: if she really wanted to make waves what she obviously doesn't,

364
00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:46,199
Speaker 1: but she's so rich and famous at this point, come

365
00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:48,159
Speaker 1: out and say that she's become a conservative, wouldn't that

366
00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:50,720
Speaker 1: be amazing? But they never will do it because well,

367
00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:53,679
Speaker 1: but we'll talk about young women. What is she like?

368
00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:56,600
Speaker 1: Probably thirty now, but younger than that about it? Yeah,

369
00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:59,879
Speaker 1: she's probably thirty. Wall Street Journal had a piece to

370
00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:02,080
Speaker 1: day that was very much I actually want I want

371
00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:03,280
Speaker 1: to get into this little bit because I thought it

372
00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:06,240
Speaker 1: was interesting, and people reached out yesterday after the show

373
00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:11,440
Speaker 1: of folks Listening reached out about the my basic thesis,

374
00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:13,240
Speaker 1: or rather the thesis that is supported by some of

375
00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:16,840
Speaker 1: the scientific evidence that you can get together as much

376
00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:20,080
Speaker 1: as there is science in social science self reporting. It's

377
00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:22,240
Speaker 1: you know, it's not like you're trying to see where

378
00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:26,520
Speaker 1: the point at which water boils. But here is before

379
00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:31,600
Speaker 1: we get to that second gentleman, as in Kamala Harris's

380
00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:36,639
Speaker 1: husband Doug Emhoff, who wants to weigh in here on

381
00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:42,240
Speaker 1: anyone to guess toxic masculinity. Can we just talk about

382
00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:46,480
Speaker 1: masculinity for a moment, as being second gentelmen changed your

383
00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:50,080
Speaker 1: own view of perceived gender roles, of what it means

384
00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:53,600
Speaker 1: to be a man. That's this is something I've I've

385
00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:56,200
Speaker 1: thought about a lot, and something I've spoken about a lot.

386
00:21:56,280 --> 00:22:00,400
Speaker 1: There's too much of toxicity. It's masculine toxics, the out

387
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:03,040
Speaker 1: there and there we've kind of confused what it means

388
00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:06,520
Speaker 1: to be a man, what it means to be masculine. No, no, no, no,

389
00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:09,679
Speaker 1: hold on, I think he's got a clay and exactly

390
00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:12,800
Speaker 1: the wrong director. There's actually not enough masculinity in American

391
00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:15,679
Speaker 1: society these days. What I think is so interesting is

392
00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:19,159
Speaker 1: that if you if you take the position that the

393
00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:24,160
Speaker 1: second gentleman here takes that there's too much when they's

394
00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:27,320
Speaker 1: a toxic masculine, they really just mean traditional masculinity. There's

395
00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:30,120
Speaker 1: too much traditional masculinity. That's fine, you're allowed to wait

396
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:32,359
Speaker 1: on that. But if you or I were to say, no, actually,

397
00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:36,240
Speaker 1: the Left is tearing down masculinity. They're undermining particularly young men,

398
00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:40,920
Speaker 1: and what is masculine, everyone goes, oh, I'm sorry, Arnold Schwarzenegger,

399
00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:44,199
Speaker 1: Like are you starring in Conan the Barbarian? They always

400
00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:47,119
Speaker 1: attack you right away. I think it's so interesting that

401
00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:52,440
Speaker 1: if you're a not particularly masculine man in the case

402
00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:54,600
Speaker 1: of Doug Mhoff, I don't think anybody would assume this

403
00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:57,800
Speaker 1: is a guy who's, you know, out there working hard

404
00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:00,920
Speaker 1: with his hands and getting callouses, you know, doing things

405
00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:04,159
Speaker 1: that are You can talk about toxic masculinity as much

406
00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:06,040
Speaker 1: as you want and they'll defend you. But if you're

407
00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:08,440
Speaker 1: just a normal, everyday guy and you say I think

408
00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:12,280
Speaker 1: masculinity is being undermined and there's not enough of it, it's, oh, yeah,

409
00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:14,800
Speaker 1: I guess you know, maybe you should lower the steroid

410
00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:17,359
Speaker 1: use there, buddy, because you're so you're so alpha male.

411
00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:21,720
Speaker 1: We talk all the time about women and how they

412
00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:25,560
Speaker 1: are treated in society, I believe, and I see it

413
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:30,160
Speaker 1: in some young kids right boys who are becoming men.

414
00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:35,680
Speaker 1: We don't talk enough about how we have so feminized society,

415
00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:40,360
Speaker 1: in particular education, that we're losing a lot of young men.

416
00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:42,280
Speaker 1: And I know there are a lot of moms and

417
00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:44,919
Speaker 1: dads of young men that are nodding along with me

418
00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:48,920
Speaker 1: right now. Buck, Do you know what percentage of college

419
00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:53,920
Speaker 1: degrees now go to women. It's five sixty percent. Oh yeah,

420
00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:58,480
Speaker 1: sixty percent now of college degrees go to women, women

421
00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:03,240
Speaker 1: overwhelmingly in role in college compared to men. I think

422
00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:06,240
Speaker 1: what we have done is we have swung so far

423
00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:09,560
Speaker 1: in the opposite direction in trying to say, oh, manhood

424
00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:12,840
Speaker 1: is wrong. You know, we never hear toxic femininity, right,

425
00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:16,640
Speaker 1: We never hear that aspect of the feminine persuasion as

426
00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:19,199
Speaker 1: things that can be toxic. But I think we have

427
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:23,480
Speaker 1: feminized the educational system in particular to such a degree

428
00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:27,600
Speaker 1: that many men, young boys in particular, do not fit

429
00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:30,359
Speaker 1: in that system. And I think we've kind of tried

430
00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:34,760
Speaker 1: to smooth off the rough edges of competition and of

431
00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:39,440
Speaker 1: masculine ideals. And what I see with young boys buck

432
00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:42,359
Speaker 1: is I think they're swinging back in the other direction

433
00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:47,280
Speaker 1: where they feel like they are being targeted for being boys.

434
00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:51,240
Speaker 1: And I think we're seeing Andrew Tad as a good

435
00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:56,440
Speaker 1: example of this, wildly popular on YouTube because he speaks

436
00:24:56,480 --> 00:24:59,439
Speaker 1: to boys and tells them you should be proud of

437
00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:02,159
Speaker 1: being a man. You should. And now, look, I'm not

438
00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:04,719
Speaker 1: saying that everything Andrew Tate says is something that I

439
00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:07,639
Speaker 1: want every one of my kids to emulate, But I

440
00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:12,840
Speaker 1: think there's this desperate yearning among boys to be men,

441
00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:15,399
Speaker 1: and I think they're struggling with how to get there

442
00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:18,560
Speaker 1: in this society that we've created. It's interesting, isn't it

443
00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:22,040
Speaker 1: that you have, just as a side note, with Andrew Tate,

444
00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:29,959
Speaker 1: a black American being held in a foreign prison without trial,

445
00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:34,720
Speaker 1: going on month three, and nobody in the mainstream media cares.

446
00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:38,000
Speaker 1: Nobody's I mean, whether you think he's innocent or guilty.

447
00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:42,080
Speaker 1: I'm just talking about how about process? How about nobody

448
00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:43,800
Speaker 1: in the bide the White House seems to care about

449
00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:46,359
Speaker 1: him compared to Britney Griner, do they? I mean Britney

450
00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:50,520
Speaker 1: Griner broke the law. She actually broke the law, admitted it.

451
00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:53,520
Speaker 1: There's no Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan are saying

452
00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:57,120
Speaker 1: we have done nothing wrong and nothing illegal, and they're

453
00:25:57,119 --> 00:25:59,760
Speaker 1: now in going into month three, they still haven't been

454
00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:05,119
Speaker 1: charged with anything correct, no charges whatsoever. That's you know,

455
00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:08,280
Speaker 1: people who remember they're reading some kafka back in high

456
00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:11,399
Speaker 1: school or in college. This is kafka, ask well, hold on,

457
00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:14,399
Speaker 1: shouldn't they at least? This is why you know people

458
00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:16,640
Speaker 1: do bring this up, And it actually came up recently

459
00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:18,919
Speaker 1: and even in the case of the Murdoch trial, right,

460
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:22,480
Speaker 1: this notion that, Okay, our criminal justice system is not

461
00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:25,240
Speaker 1: so great, except it's better than all the other ones

462
00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:27,920
Speaker 1: out there. You find me another country and tell me

463
00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:30,480
Speaker 1: about their criminal justice system, and I'll tell you the

464
00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:34,119
Speaker 1: genius of the Founders still shines through compared to what

465
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:37,080
Speaker 1: we've seen everywhere else. You'd rather be in a quarter

466
00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:40,959
Speaker 1: of law here than anywhere else, and that certainly includes Romania. Amen.

467
00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:45,240
Speaker 1: And I'll just speak to Andrew Tate again. My two

468
00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:49,080
Speaker 1: oldest boys. When I mentioned this was before he was arrested.

469
00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:51,160
Speaker 1: Andrew Tate was starting to do media and we were

470
00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:52,919
Speaker 1: potentially going to reach out to him and get him

471
00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:54,560
Speaker 1: on this show. And I just asked my kids, because

472
00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:57,120
Speaker 1: they watch his videos way more than I have, and

473
00:26:57,160 --> 00:27:00,560
Speaker 1: they were like, Andrew Tate is for their group. I

474
00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:02,000
Speaker 1: saw as a front page story in the New York

475
00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:05,800
Speaker 1: Times about this recently, Tubuck in England, Andrew state tad

476
00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:10,800
Speaker 1: is so popular that they are countering Andrew Tate's teachings

477
00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:14,359
Speaker 1: two young boys, and I thought to myself, why is

478
00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:17,560
Speaker 1: this desperate yearning out there for young boys? I think

479
00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:20,720
Speaker 1: it's because traditional masculinity has been so attacked that they

480
00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:24,040
Speaker 1: don't know where they fit in societally. So so if

481
00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:27,520
Speaker 1: we line this up between what the what would second

482
00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:32,480
Speaker 1: gentleman Doug Emhoff say about masculinity and what would be

483
00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:34,199
Speaker 1: the things that Andrew Tad would say. Now as you

484
00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:36,199
Speaker 1: put it out, you don't agree with everything. I don't know.

485
00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:38,480
Speaker 1: You don't know, nor would we agree with everything that

486
00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:40,720
Speaker 1: Ted Tate is. I don't agree with everything anybody says.

487
00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:44,320
Speaker 1: Let's be exact, right, That's what I was gonna's normal humanity.

488
00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:47,600
Speaker 1: But I can point to things that that Tate has

489
00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:50,520
Speaker 1: said publicly. Now as we know, him and his brother

490
00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:53,280
Speaker 1: are being held in this remaining in prison on human

491
00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:56,520
Speaker 1: trafficking and sexual assault allegations, and if you read more

492
00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:59,080
Speaker 1: and more about it, it the whole thing is, you know,

493
00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:00,879
Speaker 1: I think they're gonna hold them for six months and

494
00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:02,800
Speaker 1: let them go. If that tells you that's the maximum

495
00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:06,040
Speaker 1: under Romanian statute they can hold. Remember they're not being

496
00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:11,000
Speaker 1: held pending judgment. They're being held pending charges to your

497
00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:15,080
Speaker 1: They're investigating them while keeping them under I mean, this

498
00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:16,560
Speaker 1: is crazy. I mean, this is why you don't want

499
00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:18,359
Speaker 1: to be in Romania. That's right. You don't want to

500
00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:20,760
Speaker 1: be in the Romanian justice system, but you could point

501
00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:22,760
Speaker 1: to things he said, like it is the job of

502
00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:26,440
Speaker 1: a man to protect women, and protect particularly his wife

503
00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:29,840
Speaker 1: or the woman, you know, his romantic partner, with his

504
00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:33,480
Speaker 1: life if necessary. That's something my dad taught me when

505
00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:35,639
Speaker 1: I was growing up. He said, you know, you're you're with,

506
00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:38,120
Speaker 1: you're out with with somebody, you're out with your girlfriend,

507
00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:40,240
Speaker 1: or you're out with you know, women who are acquaintances

508
00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:42,600
Speaker 1: of yours. You are there to defend them. And when

509
00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:44,720
Speaker 1: it comes to your wife, you defend your wife with

510
00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:48,160
Speaker 1: your life if necessary. Those are messages that I think

511
00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:51,520
Speaker 1: resonate with men, with men who want to women. By

512
00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:53,200
Speaker 1: the way, I think there's a lot of women out

513
00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:56,720
Speaker 1: there that hate this, uh Doug em Hoff like, oh

514
00:28:56,840 --> 00:28:58,720
Speaker 1: men are awful. I mean, I think there's a lot

515
00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:01,440
Speaker 1: of women that want more math sculinity in America. I

516
00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:03,400
Speaker 1: don't think we need to hear from Doug em Hooff

517
00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:05,640
Speaker 1: with his you know, his soft little fingers that have

518
00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:09,440
Speaker 1: never actually been in any kind of any kind of

519
00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:11,760
Speaker 1: a scrap of any kind ever. I'm not even talking

520
00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:13,600
Speaker 1: about all it did. He like serve his country and thinking, no,

521
00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:16,080
Speaker 1: forget about even that, just this is not a guy.

522
00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:19,280
Speaker 1: What is his message for men? That you shouldn't talk

523
00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:21,880
Speaker 1: as much in class, let the girls talk more, because

524
00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:24,680
Speaker 1: if you're toxic masculinity that you should be careful. You

525
00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:27,440
Speaker 1: shouldn't assert an opinion too aggressively because you might be

526
00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:31,440
Speaker 1: man splaining. And by the way, the answer is yes, yes,

527
00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:34,960
Speaker 1: if you're if you're taking the toxic masculinity rhetoric to

528
00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:37,720
Speaker 1: its end state, you're taking into a place where you

529
00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:41,600
Speaker 1: know masculinity is inherently a bad thing that needs to

530
00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:46,400
Speaker 1: be minimized. That is what toxic masculinity as an ideology is.

531
00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:49,320
Speaker 1: So would you rather have that or rather have somebody

532
00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:51,680
Speaker 1: who actually has some things to say that are pretty

533
00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:54,600
Speaker 1: interesting and pretty compelling about masculinity, I think. But for

534
00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:57,600
Speaker 1: all the people to weigh in on this, Doug Emhoff,

535
00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:00,280
Speaker 1: I think that there is a massive demand and for

536
00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:03,240
Speaker 1: manly men, and I think we are seeing a swing

537
00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:07,840
Speaker 1: back in the direction of men being happy to be men.

538
00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:09,720
Speaker 1: Like one of my kids, I was in Target recently

539
00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:13,320
Speaker 1: and they were like girls rule the World t shirts

540
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:16,080
Speaker 1: or whatever, and one of my young kids was like,

541
00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:18,280
Speaker 1: how come there no boys rule the world? T shirts

542
00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:20,760
Speaker 1: Dad when I was like, well, you know, it's kind

543
00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:22,920
Speaker 1: of an interesting perspective for an eight year old to

544
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:25,800
Speaker 1: be like walking around and they see the way that

545
00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:29,480
Speaker 1: the education system, in their opinion, treats girls compared to boys.

546
00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:30,920
Speaker 1: I just think I think we're I think we have

547
00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:34,800
Speaker 1: swung so far in the opposite direction where we put

548
00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:38,240
Speaker 1: manhood itself under attack. And the left if you even

549
00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:41,000
Speaker 1: say I want to be I want to become more masculine.

550
00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:43,200
Speaker 1: To me, that means I want to be a better provider.

551
00:30:43,240 --> 00:30:46,239
Speaker 1: I want to be physically stronger. I want to be

552
00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:49,320
Speaker 1: mentally stronger. I want to be somebody that other people

553
00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:51,800
Speaker 1: can come to when they need help, when they need

554
00:30:51,840 --> 00:30:53,800
Speaker 1: somebody to lift them up. I want to be somebody

555
00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:56,960
Speaker 1: who can defend people, you know, against the wolves out there.

556
00:30:57,000 --> 00:30:59,960
Speaker 1: I want to be a sheep dog. Right. The left goes,

557
00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:02,640
Speaker 1: oh yeah, miss oh, you're you know that They it

558
00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:06,400
Speaker 1: makes live men, makes them uncomfortable. Right. You can't even

559
00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:07,760
Speaker 1: say I want to get better, I want to be

560
00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:11,360
Speaker 1: more masculine. They immediately attack your masculinity because they're trying

561
00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:14,479
Speaker 1: to find some weakness in it. Because what are they

562
00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:16,800
Speaker 1: thirty year old girls listening to us right now. Buck

563
00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:20,400
Speaker 1: that are single that are furious that they can't find

564
00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:25,240
Speaker 1: men to date. They find beta male subservient men who

565
00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:27,400
Speaker 1: pretend like if you sit down in your first date

566
00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:29,240
Speaker 1: and the guy says I'm a feminist, run in the

567
00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:31,120
Speaker 1: other direction. And now that I'm now that I'm a

568
00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:35,360
Speaker 1: happily married man after having twenty years of not being

569
00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:37,360
Speaker 1: married and being a guy who is dating. I could

570
00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:39,480
Speaker 1: tell to the young men out there listening, I'm gonna

571
00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:41,960
Speaker 1: give you two things that when it comes to women,

572
00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:47,080
Speaker 1: will will change change your life. Okay, if you're having

573
00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:50,240
Speaker 1: any problems and then you know dating or be confident,

574
00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:53,280
Speaker 1: be decisive. You add those two that. I mean, look,

575
00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:56,800
Speaker 1: I'm sitting here, Clay Travis is like the uh, it's

576
00:31:56,840 --> 00:31:59,719
Speaker 1: like the babe ruth of confidence. I have way too much.

577
00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:04,960
Speaker 1: He's a very issue. Yes, I've telling you, be confident,

578
00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:07,840
Speaker 1: be decisive, and you will see things change. I also

579
00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:10,080
Speaker 1: want to take a moment here to say thank you

580
00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:13,840
Speaker 1: for the generosity you've extended to the Preborn Network of Clinics.

581
00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:17,000
Speaker 1: This nonprofit organization has dedicated themselves to the lives of

582
00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:20,080
Speaker 1: unborn children and the care and support of pregnant mothers.

583
00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:23,800
Speaker 1: Carrying those unborn children. Your generosity is allowing them to

584
00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:26,880
Speaker 1: provide free ultrasounds to women deciding whether to bring their

585
00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:31,040
Speaker 1: child into this world or choose abortion. By providing that ultrasound,

586
00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:34,520
Speaker 1: they're introducing a mother to their child. When that heartbeat

587
00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:37,520
Speaker 1: is heard, the sight of a child moving inside the

588
00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:41,120
Speaker 1: womb takes place. Most of the time, that mother who's

589
00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:44,760
Speaker 1: in that moment of crisis decision, she will choose life

590
00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:48,080
Speaker 1: for her unborn child. To date, the Preborn Network of

591
00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:51,760
Speaker 1: clinics has rescued over two hundred thousand babies. Your generosity

592
00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:54,560
Speaker 1: and sharing a tax seductible donation is the fuel that

593
00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:59,240
Speaker 1: allows Preborn to offer young women free ultrasounds twenty eight dollars.

594
00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:02,920
Speaker 1: That's what I'm sound cost twenty eight dollars where I am.

608
00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:50,239
Speaker 1: of Morgan Wallen, I believe being played all throughout the

609
00:33:50,280 --> 00:33:56,120
Speaker 1: show today. I may have requested that these all these

610
00:33:56,160 --> 00:33:59,160
Speaker 1: all be brought to bear after my shock that Buck

611
00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:02,440
Speaker 1: Sexton was not aware of who Morgan Wallin was. We

612
00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:06,640
Speaker 1: were talking during the break, continued our conversation about Andrew Tate,

613
00:34:06,640 --> 00:34:07,959
Speaker 1: and I wanted to mention this too, and I'll take

614
00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:11,000
Speaker 1: a call in a sec. The thing that resonates I

615
00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:13,239
Speaker 1: think Buck the most with my boys. And again, I'm

616
00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:16,640
Speaker 1: raising three boys, so I probably think about this idea

617
00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:20,239
Speaker 1: of toxic masculinity far more than I would if I

618
00:34:20,320 --> 00:34:25,319
Speaker 1: weren't raising three boys. But what they appreciate about Andrew Tate,

619
00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:28,360
Speaker 1: and I think where there is a desperate craving among

620
00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:33,560
Speaker 1: young boys right now is the self reliance, the rely

621
00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:38,480
Speaker 1: on yourself, the be mentally and physically tough aspects of

622
00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:40,960
Speaker 1: his message because they're so young, they're not like they're

623
00:34:41,040 --> 00:34:44,399
Speaker 1: dating girls, so that aspect doesn't really resonate with them.

624
00:34:44,680 --> 00:34:49,880
Speaker 1: But it's just the hey rely on yourself message that

625
00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:52,959
Speaker 1: I think is not getting through to boys at all,

626
00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:56,680
Speaker 1: and they desperately crave it. Yeah, and I think also

627
00:34:56,960 --> 00:35:03,520
Speaker 1: telling men at a young age life is harder, more competitive,

628
00:35:03,680 --> 00:35:08,160
Speaker 1: and more unfair than you currently realize. Yeah, whoever you are.

629
00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:10,600
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, some people may be an extreme

630
00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:13,200
Speaker 1: circumstances thing. Life is incredibly unfair at a very young age.

631
00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:16,080
Speaker 1: But I'm just saying in general, I think most American

632
00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:19,839
Speaker 1: young men should hear that. You know, I'll tell a real,

633
00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:21,640
Speaker 1: real quick thing, Clay. You know, I went back to

634
00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:25,480
Speaker 1: my high school many years ago when I was still

635
00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:28,319
Speaker 1: a CIA officer, and they asked me on the fly.

636
00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:30,400
Speaker 1: I happen to be in New York. I was visiting family.

637
00:35:30,520 --> 00:35:32,239
Speaker 1: They said, Hey, could you come in and speak to

638
00:35:32,239 --> 00:35:34,960
Speaker 1: the kids, you know, the guy the seniors about how

639
00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:37,560
Speaker 1: to get jobs. And I didn't prepare this for anything else.

640
00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:39,200
Speaker 1: I went in there and I was like, so, you

641
00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:41,480
Speaker 1: guys are out of school. That is annually in like

642
00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:44,680
Speaker 1: the top five for average sat in the entire United States.

643
00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:47,279
Speaker 1: You're all on one hundred thousand dollars scholarship. You all

644
00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:49,759
Speaker 1: got straight a's before you came here, and you're gonna

645
00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:53,600
Speaker 1: get straight a's in college afterwards. Guess what nobody really cares.

646
00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:57,480
Speaker 1: Getting jobs is really hard. You're gonna have to scrape

647
00:35:57,480 --> 00:36:00,520
Speaker 1: and struggle and fight. And the better the job you want,

648
00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:02,239
Speaker 1: the harder it's going to be to get it. Because

649
00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:04,600
Speaker 1: there are other kids all over the country with straight a's.

650
00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:06,279
Speaker 1: There are other people, you know. I just kind of

651
00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:08,000
Speaker 1: gave them this, and all the teachers came up in

652
00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:09,960
Speaker 1: the afterst that was so good for them to hear.

653
00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:12,440
Speaker 1: They don't understand because I was saying things like, you're

654
00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:14,680
Speaker 1: gonna have to hustle. You're gonna have to do things

655
00:36:14,760 --> 00:36:16,680
Speaker 1: you don't want to do to get their respect of

656
00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:19,239
Speaker 1: you know, your bosses, and you're gonna have you know,

657
00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:21,440
Speaker 1: because they're used to hearing you're all amazing. You know,

658
00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:23,160
Speaker 1: you're gonna go to a greade school. You're gonna get

659
00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:25,400
Speaker 1: a great job. Well yeah, maybe in the big picture,

660
00:36:25,440 --> 00:36:28,480
Speaker 1: but the short picture is show up and gut it out.

661
00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:32,560
Speaker 1: My oldest is at an all boys school and I

662
00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:36,480
Speaker 1: think it's been phenomenal for him to only be surrounded

663
00:36:36,480 --> 00:36:39,440
Speaker 1: by boys. But I think for a lot of people

664
00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:42,120
Speaker 1: out there, you know that what we are talking about,

665
00:36:42,160 --> 00:36:44,360
Speaker 1: you may see it. Your kids are struggling in school,

666
00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:47,839
Speaker 1: your boys in particular, they just aren't really fitting in,

667
00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:52,640
Speaker 1: and nobody's talking about it. Women are dominating higher education,

668
00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:56,000
Speaker 1: men are being left behind. It's a big story deserves

669
00:36:56,040 --> 00:36:57,279
Speaker 1: more attention. Next hour
