1
00:00:00,960 --> 00:00:14,880
Speaker 1: You are entering the freedom hug Bernie Sanders doubles down

2
00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:19,040
Speaker 1: on his support for the literacy program the Castro regime implemented.

3
00:00:19,079 --> 00:00:22,720
Speaker 1: We'll get into that. The rise of open authoritarianism in

4
00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:25,880
Speaker 1: the Democratic Party. What does this mean for the Democratic primary?

5
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:29,040
Speaker 1: There is a debate tonight among Democrats. It's going to

6
00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:32,680
Speaker 1: help determine who wins in South Carolina, and a whole

7
00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:36,600
Speaker 1: lot more coming up. This is the bus Sexton Show,

8
00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:39,680
Speaker 1: where the mission or mission is to decode what really

9
00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:47,520
Speaker 1: matters with actionable intelligence. Make no mistake Grant American again.

10
00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:57,880
Speaker 1: The buck Sexton Show begins. Analyst. Remember so the Democrats

11
00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:02,080
Speaker 1: will say, you don't say good things about Fidel Castro.

12
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:06,560
Speaker 1: He destroyed freedoms in that country. He played picks, winners

13
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:08,760
Speaker 1: and losers and killed them and put them in prison forever.

14
00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:10,640
Speaker 1: You don't give him a pat on the back for anything. Don't.

15
00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:16,560
Speaker 1: It's not a quite truth? Is truth? All right? Now?

16
00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:19,839
Speaker 1: If you want to disagree with me that somebody wants

17
00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:23,520
Speaker 1: to say that, and badly, all of those congress people

18
00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:26,240
Speaker 1: that you mentioned just so happened to be supporting other

19
00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:31,200
Speaker 1: candidates just accidentally, no doubt incidentally. But you know the

20
00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:34,200
Speaker 1: truth is the truth, and that's what happened in the

21
00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:38,800
Speaker 1: first he is of the Castro regime. Truth is truth

22
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:41,840
Speaker 1: is the answer you get from Bernie Sanders there, Welcome

23
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:45,400
Speaker 1: to the Buck Sexton Show, everybody. You would think that

24
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:49,280
Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders might take the offer amp here that CNN

25
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:54,360
Speaker 1: was clearly clearly providing him right that he could walk

26
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:57,520
Speaker 1: away from his comments about the literacy program. By the way,

27
00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:01,720
Speaker 1: the literacy of the Cuban people went from somewhere in

28
00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:06,720
Speaker 1: the mid seventy percentile range to like maybe ninety percent.

29
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:11,760
Speaker 1: And that was at the cost of the enslavement of

30
00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:14,520
Speaker 1: the entire island, the appropriation of not just rich people,

31
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:22,200
Speaker 1: but middle class people's property, indoctrination programs, massed attention, mass executions, torture, brutalization,

32
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:28,000
Speaker 1: and o yes, huge numbers of people risking death. As

33
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:31,440
Speaker 1: a Cuban immigrant to this country, now a proud American

34
00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:34,440
Speaker 1: had explained it to me, Always remember that people were

35
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:37,280
Speaker 1: not just willing to risk their own lives, but fathers,

36
00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:45,600
Speaker 1: mothers were willing to get on rickety rafts, homemade homemade rafts,

37
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:49,560
Speaker 1: and risk the possibility of watching their children drowned before

38
00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:53,079
Speaker 1: them or their children could eaten by sharks. That's how

39
00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 1: desperate they were to get off of this island that

40
00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:59,840
Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders thinks had a great literacy program. Now we're

41
00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:03,120
Speaker 1: not overstating this. This is no longer that point in

42
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:06,400
Speaker 1: conservative media where you say, come on, is this meant

43
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:08,800
Speaker 1: to just get a rise out of people or is

44
00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:11,359
Speaker 1: there a little bit of media exaggeration going on here?

45
00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:14,160
Speaker 1: We have a socialist who is now on a glide

46
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:19,239
Speaker 1: path to becoming the Democrat nominee for the presidency. And

47
00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:21,079
Speaker 1: not only does he not hide the fact that he's

48
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:24,040
Speaker 1: a socialist, is quite open about it, obviously, but he

49
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 1: won't even repudiate his previous warm comments about some of

50
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:33,679
Speaker 1: the most awful totalitarian regimes on the planet. And this

51
00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 1: guy wants to be in charge of the executive branch

52
00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:39,600
Speaker 1: of the United States government in less than a year.

53
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:44,960
Speaker 1: I think it's a big deal. I think we can

54
00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:46,680
Speaker 1: all view this as something that is worthy of our

55
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:50,760
Speaker 1: attention in our time and just remember this as scary

56
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:55,559
Speaker 1: as it is. The Democrat corporate media, the CNN, MSNBC,

57
00:03:55,800 --> 00:04:00,400
Speaker 1: New York Times, Washington Post industrial complex, dope, I'll find

58
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:04,000
Speaker 1: some way to push Sanders on us. They don't care

59
00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:07,640
Speaker 1: anybody but Trump, anyone who they think will give them

60
00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:11,680
Speaker 1: some of what they want, even if it means a

61
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:15,120
Speaker 1: complete abandonment of some of the core principles of this

62
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:18,720
Speaker 1: country for now, well really since the beginning. I mean,

63
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:24,200
Speaker 1: if you look at individual rights and constitutional constitutional restraint

64
00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:26,440
Speaker 1: on government, and then you look at what the Sanders

65
00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:30,880
Speaker 1: administration is already proposing to do, it's effectively at war

66
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:34,200
Speaker 1: with the founding principles of this country. It wants to

67
00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:36,120
Speaker 1: turn us into a Oh that's right, kind of like

68
00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:39,560
Speaker 1: what Obama said, fundamentally transform the country. That was his promise,

69
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:45,360
Speaker 1: and now Sanders looks to finish finish that process. This

70
00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:49,440
Speaker 1: is troubling, to say the least. It's something that we

71
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:53,480
Speaker 1: should take very seriously. We have to take it very seriously.

72
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:58,960
Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders also takes all the wrong lessons from history

73
00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:01,760
Speaker 1: and from other model rolls around the world, all of

74
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:05,080
Speaker 1: the wrong models. He somehow has managed to spend his

75
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:11,760
Speaker 1: entire adult life distilling the incorrect lessons of state control, authoritarianism,

76
00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:16,919
Speaker 1: intervention by government authorities into markets, all the wrong lessons.

77
00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:20,960
Speaker 1: That's really his magic power is to always he's like

78
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:23,440
Speaker 1: Joe Biden on foreign policy, to always get it wrong.

79
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:27,800
Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders on the market and on what creates wealth

80
00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:31,880
Speaker 1: and prosperity for all people always gets it wrong. All

81
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:36,080
Speaker 1: he knows how to do is class warfare agitation. He

82
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:39,200
Speaker 1: doesn't even know how to implement that class warfare agitation.

83
00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:42,120
Speaker 1: You have to remember that he hasn't even had experience

84
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:44,719
Speaker 1: at the controls. He's just a loud voice on the

85
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:50,160
Speaker 1: corner yelling about millionaires and billionaires and oligarchus, and you're

86
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 1: gonna have free this and free that, and they're all

87
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:57,760
Speaker 1: gonna be paid for by the rich. Except we know

88
00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:00,400
Speaker 1: everyone's going to pay for it. There aren't enough people

89
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,400
Speaker 1: to pay for the things that Bernie said. Sanders says

90
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:06,039
Speaker 1: that he wants. I've had a number of jobs in

91
00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:08,040
Speaker 1: the private sector, and the people that I have worked for,

92
00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:10,120
Speaker 1: at least the owners that the companies I've worked for,

93
00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:12,960
Speaker 1: they have been wealthy. I've never had a I've never

94
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:18,560
Speaker 1: had a job that Bernie Sanders would offer me. Right,

95
00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:24,160
Speaker 1: I've never worked for somebody who Bernie Sanders would be

96
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:27,960
Speaker 1: able to do anything other than extract from. So his

97
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:34,279
Speaker 1: demonization of the people that are actual job creators is counterproductive.

98
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:37,120
Speaker 1: In the most clear and the most the most evident ways.

99
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:40,680
Speaker 1: He simply does not care though he's going to continue

100
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:44,000
Speaker 1: with this, and he also knows that he has to

101
00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:47,480
Speaker 1: bow to the wokeness of the left, which I suppose

102
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:52,560
Speaker 1: is unsurprising. Here's what he says about who is vice president,

103
00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:56,320
Speaker 1: for example, will be plick clip ten. But your question

104
00:06:56,600 --> 00:07:03,520
Speaker 1: is about a vice presidential part of the ticket, and yes,

105
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:05,840
Speaker 1: the answer is we will do that. But it's a

106
00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:09,840
Speaker 1: little bit presumptuous right now. I will tell you one thing, though,

107
00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:13,720
Speaker 1: you know, is that person will not be an old

108
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 1: white guy. That I can say defend in all seriousness

109
00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:27,600
Speaker 1: that our cabinet and our administration will very intentionally look

110
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:31,400
Speaker 1: like America. I think it's important that all of our

111
00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:36,520
Speaker 1: people see themselves reflected in the administration of the president

112
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:39,760
Speaker 1: of the United States, and we will absolutely do that.

113
00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:44,160
Speaker 1: This from a guy who is really the oldest of

114
00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:48,160
Speaker 1: white guys running for the presidency from what is I believe,

115
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:51,800
Speaker 1: the whitest single state in the United States. But now

116
00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:54,600
Speaker 1: he's mister diversity because he thinks he has to be

117
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:58,080
Speaker 1: in the Democratic primary. So the media can go along

118
00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:00,600
Speaker 1: with all this and look like they're not out whatever

119
00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:04,320
Speaker 1: principles they pretend to have How's he going to pay

120
00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:08,040
Speaker 1: for all this? We'll figure it out. I mean this

121
00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:11,320
Speaker 1: has really become a common talking point on the left.

122
00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:13,040
Speaker 1: How are you gonna pay for a hundred trillion dollars?

123
00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:17,720
Speaker 1: It'll come from somewhere. Keep in mind, right now people

124
00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:21,800
Speaker 1: might have to consider the possibility that we are facing

125
00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:30,520
Speaker 1: because of because of manufacturing, manufacturing stoppages and supply chain shortages,

126
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:35,000
Speaker 1: a change in global GDP as a result of coronavirus.

127
00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:37,480
Speaker 1: That's a that's a real concern. I don't know if

128
00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:40,240
Speaker 1: it will have him, and that's a real concern. And

129
00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:43,800
Speaker 1: you also have twenty three trillion dollars or so of

130
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:47,040
Speaker 1: US debt already piled up. There are economic ramifications that

131
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:50,320
Speaker 1: are happening all the time from that, and Bernie Sanders

132
00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:52,240
Speaker 1: is just saying, let's just make it one hundred trillion dollars.

133
00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:57,880
Speaker 1: I mean, he is walking into a room full of

134
00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:00,960
Speaker 1: flammable material and he's got a blamethrower in his hands,

135
00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:03,840
Speaker 1: and he's just saying, what could go wrong? This is

136
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:06,920
Speaker 1: really something that we all have to take very seriously.

137
00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:10,240
Speaker 1: I did not think if Joe Biden became president, you

138
00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:14,400
Speaker 1: weren't going to have you know the massive destruction of

139
00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:18,640
Speaker 1: wealth that you would have under a Sanders presidency. Let's

140
00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:21,319
Speaker 1: understand this. I mean Biden would have you know, he

141
00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:23,400
Speaker 1: would have done some bad Democrat things, and I wouldn't

142
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:25,439
Speaker 1: certainly would have been as good as Trump nowhere near it,

143
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:29,120
Speaker 1: but you know, he'd sort of go with what the

144
00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:32,480
Speaker 1: corporate interests and the Democrat donor class wants on some things.

145
00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:36,800
Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders, it's not clear that the corporate donor class

146
00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:39,440
Speaker 1: can control him at all. And it's also not clear

147
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:42,959
Speaker 1: that he even really understands the ramifications of what he

148
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:46,840
Speaker 1: says he wants to do. He's claiming, for example, that

149
00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:48,679
Speaker 1: we'll just figure out how to pay for things when

150
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:51,160
Speaker 1: we decide that we're gonna pay for them. Play twelve mark.

151
00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:54,800
Speaker 1: There's a lot of detail in here. You can look

152
00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:57,760
Speaker 1: forward for yourselves on the website. It is not matching

153
00:09:57,760 --> 00:09:59,960
Speaker 1: the price tag that some put it about thirty trillion

154
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,960
Speaker 1: dollars for the Medicare for All transition. You do have

155
00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:05,120
Speaker 1: lots of different ideas in here. I'm not saying you don't,

156
00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:08,240
Speaker 1: but you get about halfway. There's the question becomes, how

157
00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:10,720
Speaker 1: do you get the rest of the world You know

158
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:12,480
Speaker 1: there was a slutty Chris. I don't know if you

159
00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:15,040
Speaker 1: have to see it. I don't know. If that hatie

160
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:21,880
Speaker 1: trillion over ten years, how do you get there? The

161
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:23,920
Speaker 1: math doesn't add up. He can pretend that it adds

162
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:26,439
Speaker 1: up as much as he wants to. I mean, Bernie

163
00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:30,160
Speaker 1: Sanders in a saner era where the left has not

164
00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:34,120
Speaker 1: had the ability to organize and galvanize via digital and

165
00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:38,080
Speaker 1: social media, and where the corporate media hasn't just become

166
00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:42,040
Speaker 1: a bunch of absolutely spineless cowards who just don't want

167
00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:43,840
Speaker 1: to be called you know, don't want to be called racist,

168
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:47,240
Speaker 1: don't want to be called sexist, and we'll play along

169
00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:49,680
Speaker 1: with his class warfare game. I mean, that's the funniest

170
00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:54,040
Speaker 1: thing about about the CNN and MSNBC, an ABC same deal,

171
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:56,600
Speaker 1: that that these networks have all these people that go

172
00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:59,439
Speaker 1: on TV who are multi multi millionaires getting paid to

173
00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:01,520
Speaker 1: do a job. A thousand other people could replace them

174
00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:03,240
Speaker 1: in tomorrow and do just as good of a job.

175
00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:05,599
Speaker 1: But they're friends with the right people, and they like

176
00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:11,120
Speaker 1: their little privileged positions, and they act like Bernie Sanders

177
00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:14,679
Speaker 1: is not crazy because their audience, or a substantial portion

178
00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:17,240
Speaker 1: of their audience now wants to believe that, so they'll

179
00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:20,120
Speaker 1: just play along. I thought journalists are supposed to speak

180
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,800
Speaker 1: truth to power. I thought, especially if you're super rich

181
00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:25,600
Speaker 1: journalist who's been in the game a long time, shouldn't

182
00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:28,360
Speaker 1: he be willing to take a stand. Why haven't you

183
00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:30,240
Speaker 1: seen a single anchor at cn whos when it come

184
00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:32,120
Speaker 1: out and spell, Look, Bernie Sanders is a commy and

185
00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:34,440
Speaker 1: he's going to destroy the US economy. We all know

186
00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:39,360
Speaker 1: that they won't say it. They're cowards. They're cowards. What

187
00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:42,320
Speaker 1: do they risk, Oh, their readings won't be as high.

188
00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:44,720
Speaker 1: Oh maybe they won't get invited to the fanciest parties

189
00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:48,760
Speaker 1: in the Hamptons this summerse people are the worst. They

190
00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:52,480
Speaker 1: really are. I mean, at least the the trolls that

191
00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:55,360
Speaker 1: work at some of these other you know, the Salon

192
00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:58,160
Speaker 1: dot Com and some of these other places, you know, Slate.

193
00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:01,320
Speaker 1: You know, they're all all these writers living in Brooklyn

194
00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:03,720
Speaker 1: who think that they're changing the world by being snarky

195
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:07,440
Speaker 1: idiots all day long. At least you can say for them,

196
00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:10,920
Speaker 1: they gotta they gotta keep the hustle going so they

197
00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:12,600
Speaker 1: can pay the bills. But some of these people you

198
00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:16,040
Speaker 1: see in the big the big three letter news agency

199
00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:20,480
Speaker 1: and corporate media that they got no excuse. There's there's

200
00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:22,360
Speaker 1: no reason for them to be such whims except that

201
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:24,960
Speaker 1: they're they're they like their privileged positions, and they won't

202
00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:27,040
Speaker 1: speak the truth. Not only do the American people forget that,

203
00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:29,600
Speaker 1: they will not speak the truth to their Democrat audience.

204
00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:34,000
Speaker 1: You know, there have been all these editorials about how

205
00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:37,720
Speaker 1: about how journalism and the era of Trump means taking

206
00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:40,320
Speaker 1: oppositional positions? They really write this. This has been a

207
00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:44,520
Speaker 1: common theme, oppositional positions to Donald Trump, because that's what

208
00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:48,800
Speaker 1: truth is. To be true, you must be opposed to Trump. Well,

209
00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:52,479
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, but if you are any of the mainstream

210
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:57,600
Speaker 1: journal Darling's out there and you don't know that Bernie

211
00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:00,240
Speaker 1: Sanders would wreck the US economy, you're a more on.

212
00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:03,280
Speaker 1: But what's worse is I think most of them recognize it,

213
00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:07,520
Speaker 1: but they're too cowardly, They're too wimpy to possibly alienate

214
00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:10,080
Speaker 1: some of their audience by saying, now, look, say what

215
00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:11,920
Speaker 1: you will about conservatism. There are a lot of people

216
00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:15,280
Speaker 1: that were willing to speak out incorrectly it turned out

217
00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:18,720
Speaker 1: about Donald Trump. But they during the primary, they said

218
00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:23,320
Speaker 1: their peace these Democrats, these big journals. They're just going

219
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:26,040
Speaker 1: along for the ride. Man. They're just like, yeah, okay,

220
00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:29,000
Speaker 1: you know, maybe it's gonna be Sanders. We know they're

221
00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:32,000
Speaker 1: all activists. So what I'm trying to say is that

222
00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:38,200
Speaker 1: they are accessories. They are accomplices in the socialism surge

223
00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:41,640
Speaker 1: of the Democratic Party is going through right now. They

224
00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:43,400
Speaker 1: could do something to try to slow it down, but

225
00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:47,000
Speaker 1: they won't. So just remember that they've been pretending for

226
00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:51,600
Speaker 1: years that they're so concerned about authoritarianism. They're so concerned

227
00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:58,679
Speaker 1: about an overly powerful executive branch official. And Bernie Sanders

228
00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:01,000
Speaker 1: is walking around saying I'm I'm gonna take your money,

229
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:02,719
Speaker 1: I'm gonna make you do things. I'm gonna be in

230
00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:05,640
Speaker 1: charge of everything. And it's just gonna be executive order.

231
00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:09,400
Speaker 1: Where's the where's the outrage? Where is it? No? Instead,

232
00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:11,040
Speaker 1: they give him the Chris Quomo. You know, come on,

233
00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:13,000
Speaker 1: come on, hey, it's pro cuomo. Come on, I mean,

234
00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:15,440
Speaker 1: you know, you know, really you're not really gonna be

235
00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:18,240
Speaker 1: you know, you're really gonna be like doing that thing

236
00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:20,000
Speaker 1: you said you're gonna do about the thing, right, I mean,

237
00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:22,840
Speaker 1: come on, you don't really think that, like, you know,

238
00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:25,200
Speaker 1: Cuba Castro. I mean, come on, right, it's not it's

239
00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:26,720
Speaker 1: not it's not great. Just tell us it's not great

240
00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:29,560
Speaker 1: and we can talk about how great you are. He's like, Nope,

241
00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:33,960
Speaker 1: literacy program equals could Truth is truth. This is what

242
00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:36,960
Speaker 1: you're up against. He's a radical. He's a radical. And

243
00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:39,280
Speaker 1: keep in mind, I mean, and I'm not trying to

244
00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:42,920
Speaker 1: say this in a way that's you know, ungallant or anything,

245
00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:45,600
Speaker 1: but I mean, he's Bernie Sanders feels like he got

246
00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:48,480
Speaker 1: he's got nothing to lose. Remember this. I mean, he

247
00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:52,040
Speaker 1: either you know, he either wins this race and is

248
00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:54,680
Speaker 1: in a position to fundamentally transform America or he gets

249
00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:56,960
Speaker 1: to go down fighting. I mean, Bernie Sanders is not

250
00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:58,760
Speaker 1: planning to have what I'm what I'm saying here is

251
00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:01,080
Speaker 1: he's not gonna have another twin years of political career.

252
00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:04,840
Speaker 1: So he's a guy who thinks he's playing with house money,

253
00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:10,400
Speaker 1: your money. You're in the freedom hunt. This is the

254
00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:17,880
Speaker 1: Buck Sexton Show podcast. I happen to believe that Debaclissy

255
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:21,400
Speaker 1: not authoritarianism, but you know, you can't say. China is

256
00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:24,840
Speaker 1: another example, all right, China is an authoritarian country becoming

257
00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:28,600
Speaker 1: more and more authoritarian. But can anyone deny. I mean,

258
00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:31,400
Speaker 1: the facts are clear that they have taken more people

259
00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:35,280
Speaker 1: out of extreme poverty than any country in history. Oh boy,

260
00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:37,920
Speaker 1: this is what I mean. He doesn't even know the basics.

261
00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:41,920
Speaker 1: How has China been able to do that? Was was

262
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:45,560
Speaker 1: Mao able to do that? I mean was a communist,

263
00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:50,640
Speaker 1: He was a collectivist, a socialist, and forty to sixty

264
00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:55,440
Speaker 1: million people starved because of his great ideas greatly forward,

265
00:15:55,800 --> 00:16:01,080
Speaker 1: forty sixty million people atrocities so horrific because hunger became

266
00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:05,400
Speaker 1: weaponized as a tool of state control during that period

267
00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:09,840
Speaker 1: of the Great Famine. And what Bernie Sanders takes from

268
00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:12,640
Speaker 1: the lesson of China is not Wait a second. The

269
00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:18,600
Speaker 1: Chinese authoritarian regime said, let's actually introduce free market reforms

270
00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:23,760
Speaker 1: and have state sponsored capitalism, which is what China is

271
00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:28,360
Speaker 1: engaged in, right, state control, state control of free market

272
00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:30,520
Speaker 1: based activity. I mean that the Chinese government is trying

273
00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:34,400
Speaker 1: to allow people to run big companies sell their stuff

274
00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:37,760
Speaker 1: on the global market so that there is wealth. The

275
00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:41,520
Speaker 1: wealth creation mechanism is the market. This is what Bernie

276
00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:44,600
Speaker 1: Sanders doesn't understand. The Chinese government didn't it wasn't able

277
00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:49,800
Speaker 1: to lift people out of poverty by instituting a higher

278
00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:53,640
Speaker 1: tax rate. That's not how it worked. Or by promising

279
00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:55,880
Speaker 1: free healthcare for everybody. That's not how it worked. So

280
00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:59,560
Speaker 1: he doesn't even in these models that he brings up.

281
00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:01,680
Speaker 1: He doesn't even And by the way, we always get

282
00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:07,439
Speaker 1: into this thing of okay, you know, there's the USSR, Venezuela, Cuba,

283
00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:10,400
Speaker 1: North Korea, and then those are the really really bad

284
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:12,760
Speaker 1: socialist countries. And then you look at what happened in

285
00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:16,600
Speaker 1: or the left that Bernie Sanders folks will bring up

286
00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:19,840
Speaker 1: Denmark and Sweden and which are not socialist countries, but

287
00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:22,359
Speaker 1: they have some socialist sectors in the countries, and they

288
00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:25,280
Speaker 1: have a large welfare state and high taxation even though

289
00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:30,320
Speaker 1: they are free market economies. What about I mean, you

290
00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:32,800
Speaker 1: get on the list of all the other socialist experiments,

291
00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:39,880
Speaker 1: socialist countries all throughout Africa and Latin America, and all disasters,

292
00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:44,879
Speaker 1: all of them are disasters economically basket cases across the board,

293
00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:47,680
Speaker 1: dozens and dozens of them. Ones you don't even think

294
00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:49,600
Speaker 1: about it. Who sits around thinking about oh, like, how

295
00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:53,200
Speaker 1: did socialism work out in Albania? Pretty badly? Ask in Albanian?

296
00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:54,800
Speaker 1: You know, I mean, either are all these places where

297
00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:56,960
Speaker 1: we've run the experiment, it's a bad idea. And not

298
00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:00,119
Speaker 1: only is it a bad idea, Sanders doesn't understand the

299
00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:02,760
Speaker 1: places where it was run poorly. And then they started

300
00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:05,639
Speaker 1: to make things better. Why things got better? Thanks for

Speaker 1: be a lot of Democrats again who are saying, well,

308
00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:30,120
Speaker 1: wait a minute. Yet again, this is another program that

309
00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:32,280
Speaker 1: it's not clear how it's going to get paid for.

310
00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:34,160
Speaker 1: It's just going to add which is clear how it's

311
00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:35,560
Speaker 1: going to be paid for it look and to say

312
00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:39,840
Speaker 1: more taxes, it's taxes on billionaires. You know, you know,

313
00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:47,160
Speaker 1: I get a little bit tired of hearing my opponents saying, gee,

314
00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:49,000
Speaker 1: how are you going to pay for a program that

315
00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:53,240
Speaker 1: impacts and helps children or working class families or middle

316
00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:55,399
Speaker 1: class families. How are you going to pay for that?

317
00:18:56,119 --> 00:18:58,320
Speaker 1: And yet where are people saying, how are you going

318
00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:01,080
Speaker 1: to pay four of a seven hundred and fifty billion

319
00:19:01,119 --> 00:19:04,000
Speaker 1: dollars on military spending? How are you going to pay

320
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:06,440
Speaker 1: for a trillion dollars in tax breaks to the one

321
00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:09,640
Speaker 1: percent of large corporations, which was what Trump did when

322
00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:12,040
Speaker 1: you helped the billionaires and you help Wall Street. Hey,

323
00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:14,640
Speaker 1: of course we can pay for That's what America supposed

324
00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:18,320
Speaker 1: to be about. Well, I disagree all demagoguery, I mean,

325
00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:21,080
Speaker 1: just all blather. That's what this guy is. He's a

326
00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:25,399
Speaker 1: blather machine. By the way. Don't even get me started

327
00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:27,440
Speaker 1: on if we had to sit down and I tried

328
00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:29,320
Speaker 1: that this guy wants to be commander in chief and

329
00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:33,280
Speaker 1: Democrats they were so upset that Trump wasn't the genius

330
00:19:33,280 --> 00:19:36,919
Speaker 1: scholar that they pretended Obama was. Do we really think

331
00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:40,120
Speaker 1: that Bernie Sanders could have an intelligent discussion about Oh,

332
00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:41,680
Speaker 1: I don't know, why did we win the Cold War?

333
00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:46,440
Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders? Why did the Soviet Union fail? Somebody should

334
00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:48,480
Speaker 1: ask Bernie Sanders if we had a real press corps,

335
00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:52,040
Speaker 1: which we don't. We don't. We have activist Democrats who

336
00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:54,840
Speaker 1: just like they've taken over universities and faculty lounges. At

337
00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:59,960
Speaker 1: colleges across the country. They also completely turned journal journalism

338
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:02,479
Speaker 1: him into a province of the left. But while they

339
00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:04,480
Speaker 1: hate talk radio so much, because it was a format

340
00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:07,280
Speaker 1: where audience got to determine what they were listening to,

341
00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:10,720
Speaker 1: not a bunch of corporate executives who, with FCC assistance,

342
00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:13,240
Speaker 1: are able to determine who gets their time where, and

343
00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:18,520
Speaker 1: you know what cable channels exist. Who thinks that Bernie

344
00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:21,520
Speaker 1: Sanders would be able to explain what went wrong in Venezuela.

345
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:23,280
Speaker 1: I mean he would just say things like, you know

346
00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:25,800
Speaker 1: there was corruption, and you know they didn't do a

347
00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:31,560
Speaker 1: good job, and okay, but why didn't it work? I'm

348
00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:33,560
Speaker 1: telling you, he could not explain. He couldn't even begin

349
00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:37,240
Speaker 1: to explain it. What's scary years that Bernie Sanders isn't

350
00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:40,160
Speaker 1: even a smart socialist. This is this is what I

351
00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:42,399
Speaker 1: really feel like I have to say say to you.

352
00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:45,119
Speaker 1: There are very clever socialists. In fact, for most of

353
00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:47,719
Speaker 1: his adult life and probably close to up until the end.

354
00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:49,840
Speaker 1: You know, Christopher Hitchins, who was one of my favorite writers,

355
00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:51,879
Speaker 1: even though he's a rabbit atheist and unfair to the

356
00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:53,639
Speaker 1: Catholic Church, and there was a lot of stuff that

357
00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:56,119
Speaker 1: I didn't agree with them on. But in terms of

358
00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:59,320
Speaker 1: writing talent, the guy was exceptional. He was really good

359
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:02,080
Speaker 1: at the craft of writing and was also very engaging

360
00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:05,760
Speaker 1: at argument and would and would argue with whomever wanted

361
00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:07,560
Speaker 1: to argue. And I mean he wasn't you know these

362
00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:11,560
Speaker 1: other people, these these CNN anchors and the MSNBC talking heads,

363
00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:13,639
Speaker 1: these people are cowards. They never actually put themselves in

364
00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:16,520
Speaker 1: a position to have a real argument. But Higins was

365
00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:18,960
Speaker 1: a socialist. He's a very smart one, though, so he

366
00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:21,200
Speaker 1: would explain to you why, and he would get it.

367
00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:24,240
Speaker 1: He was He would consider himself a Trotskyite, which I

368
00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:26,320
Speaker 1: don't even know how much Bernie Sanders could explain to

369
00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:29,520
Speaker 1: you about the difference between let's say, Trotsky versus being

370
00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:31,919
Speaker 1: a Leninist and the split there and what happened, although

371
00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:34,920
Speaker 1: that is probably his favorite part of history, so maybe

372
00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:39,120
Speaker 1: he does know a bit about it. Does Bernie Sanders?

373
00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:42,360
Speaker 1: Is he somebody who could speak about what's in Dusk Capital.

374
00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:44,000
Speaker 1: I'm not even sure what I'm saying to you that

375
00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:48,199
Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders understands the foundation of the ideology that he

376
00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:52,159
Speaker 1: is now the single most powerful representative of in the

377
00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:55,000
Speaker 1: United States, and with that, in a sense, among the

378
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:59,159
Speaker 1: most powerful socialists in the world. He is representing a

379
00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:02,639
Speaker 1: resurgence of this ideology. And I think that we're in

380
00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:06,480
Speaker 1: the midst of this resurgence in part because of the

381
00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:11,040
Speaker 1: great success of the opponents of socialism, the capitalist impulse

382
00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:14,960
Speaker 1: that has been on display in this country for well,

383
00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:18,919
Speaker 1: depending on how you want to define it, let's just

384
00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:22,359
Speaker 1: say in the post World War two era, because socialism

385
00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:25,639
Speaker 1: was ascended during the Great Depression. That was when all

386
00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:29,280
Speaker 1: of a sudden the storyline and journalists were favorable to it.

387
00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:31,159
Speaker 1: By the way, man, I mean the most elite journalists

388
00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:33,960
Speaker 1: in the country. Lots of journalists thought that the Soviet

389
00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:36,840
Speaker 1: Union had figured all this out. They bought into the propaganda.

390
00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:40,040
Speaker 1: The same dumbasses who write for the biggest newspapers that

391
00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:43,359
Speaker 1: are on the biggest cable news shows in the country today,

392
00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:45,760
Speaker 1: who think that Jesse Smollett was telling the truth or

393
00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:48,720
Speaker 1: they did think that. You know, you go back to

394
00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:53,200
Speaker 1: Walter Duranti, you go back to the famine Ukraine and Nope,

395
00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:56,080
Speaker 1: nothing going on there. They just believe they're either lied

396
00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:59,960
Speaker 1: or believe the propaganda about there not being a faminine.

397
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:02,240
Speaker 1: I think it was nineteen thirty four to nineteen thirty five.

398
00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:05,480
Speaker 1: The Ukrainians called it the Whole of the Moor or

399
00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:10,840
Speaker 1: Just and it was another weaponized famine, talk about state control,

400
00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:18,000
Speaker 1: enforced deprivation and desperation. Sanders is not even a clever socialist.

401
00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:22,200
Speaker 1: He's a pure demagogue, the same way that Joe Biden

402
00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:27,040
Speaker 1: has been just repeating, almost like a robot, whatever he

403
00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:28,880
Speaker 1: thinks he has to say at any point in time

404
00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:30,880
Speaker 1: to have the greatest appeal to voters. In that sense,

405
00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:34,439
Speaker 1: he's a He's a pure cynical politician. And that's Biden's

406
00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:35,720
Speaker 1: whole career. What I have to say to keep getting

407
00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:37,560
Speaker 1: elected in the state of Delaware, What do I have

408
00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:39,920
Speaker 1: to say to be in the good grace of the

409
00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:42,119
Speaker 1: Democratic Party? That's what I will say. I mean, the

410
00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:44,560
Speaker 1: man doesn't seem to stand for anything other than Joe Biden.

411
00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:48,480
Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders is what do I have to say that

412
00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:52,560
Speaker 1: will appeal to the class warfare instincts and the underlying

413
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:56,760
Speaker 1: socialist impulse that has always existed in America but now

414
00:23:56,920 --> 00:24:00,080
Speaker 1: is ascended. I was saying before it was ascended and

415
00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:03,480
Speaker 1: after the Great Depression, because there was a sense that

416
00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:07,600
Speaker 1: there was the narrative. The storyline was that capitalism has

417
00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:11,680
Speaker 1: failed and that that's why the Great Depression. The capitalism

418
00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:14,879
Speaker 1: was a failure and we were going to enter a

419
00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:17,760
Speaker 1: new phase. And they looked around, they saw all the

420
00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:22,159
Speaker 1: desperation and figured, well, the government must be able to

421
00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:24,439
Speaker 1: save us. So they wanted to turn to government. And

422
00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:26,600
Speaker 1: the Soviet Union was pretending if things are much better

423
00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:29,600
Speaker 1: there than it was. Okay, now we're in a different

424
00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:33,120
Speaker 1: position where capitalism has created so much abundance. We are

425
00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:37,640
Speaker 1: so blessed in this country right now. We're so full

426
00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:42,520
Speaker 1: of the riches and the wages of a free market

427
00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:47,359
Speaker 1: system that rewards individual ingenuity and hard work and dedication

428
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:50,040
Speaker 1: and yes, luck, to be sure, all all good things

429
00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:53,320
Speaker 1: in life requires some degree of luck. But we have

430
00:24:53,359 --> 00:24:58,000
Speaker 1: a system where we walk around now with greater ability

431
00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:02,119
Speaker 1: to communicate, to buy things, have our our health taken

432
00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:06,520
Speaker 1: care of. I mean, food is orders of magnitude better,

433
00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:09,480
Speaker 1: and I mean everywhere, everywhere you go food is better

434
00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:11,840
Speaker 1: than it was even when I was a kid. This

435
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,439
Speaker 1: stuff we eat is better are the I mean you

436
00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:19,600
Speaker 1: walk into a grocery store anywhere in America and the

437
00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:25,240
Speaker 1: variety and abundance and quality is mind blowing, especially compared

438
00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:28,040
Speaker 1: to what you would have seen not a hundred years ago,

439
00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:33,800
Speaker 1: but circa nineteen ninety in Moscow. You know, go you

440
00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:36,240
Speaker 1: go online to see photos of it. You know, there's

441
00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:39,560
Speaker 1: like one type of pickled beet and one kind of can,

442
00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:42,359
Speaker 1: and then a lot of empty shelves. I mean that's

443
00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:46,159
Speaker 1: what and you know maybe some some powdered milk that

444
00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:48,320
Speaker 1: you're not sure if it's been around since you know,

445
00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:50,440
Speaker 1: Cruise Shovel was in office. I mean, that's what people

446
00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:54,919
Speaker 1: were dealing with there. What was the difference that we

447
00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:57,280
Speaker 1: didn't have enough socialism? Was that? Was that? Is that

448
00:25:57,320 --> 00:25:59,800
Speaker 1: why we have so much more? We didn't have enough socialism?

449
00:25:59,880 --> 00:26:04,040
Speaker 1: Or is that socialism is a bad idea? Everybody should

450
00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:05,680
Speaker 1: be very concerned about this. But the Democrats, you see,

451
00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:07,760
Speaker 1: they're so obsessed with power, and they're so deluded in

452
00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:11,920
Speaker 1: their Trump hatred that they'll go along with this. They'll

453
00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:13,399
Speaker 1: go along with that, they have to a lot of

454
00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:15,800
Speaker 1: the Democrat establishment is still hoping that there'll be some

455
00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:19,280
Speaker 1: you know, late surge from Biden or we'll get into

456
00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:22,480
Speaker 1: Biden in a second. I really mean Biden is he's

457
00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:25,119
Speaker 1: not up for this. He's not up for it. They

458
00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:29,359
Speaker 1: can keep pretending, but it is now clear that campaign

459
00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:34,159
Speaker 1: is a crucible. I mean, the campaign is an obstacle

460
00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:37,919
Speaker 1: course for physical and mental endurance for the people that

461
00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:40,200
Speaker 1: want to be the next commander in chief and chief

462
00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:43,840
Speaker 1: executive the United States government. And Biden is falling into

463
00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:46,159
Speaker 1: the mud pit and walling around and not going to

464
00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:49,720
Speaker 1: make it to the end. And everybody who's being honest

465
00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:56,239
Speaker 1: sees it. But there's this situation right now. Is it

466
00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:59,240
Speaker 1: going to be Is it going to be Bernie Sanders

467
00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:07,800
Speaker 1: really be Sanders? Huh? He talked about childcare there you

468
00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:10,159
Speaker 1: know who else had. And by the way, this is

469
00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:13,640
Speaker 1: not an unfair comparison, because I want to I want

470
00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:16,240
Speaker 1: to tell you what I think the real goal should be.

471
00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:19,359
Speaker 1: The real goal of the US economy should be something

472
00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:22,000
Speaker 1: that even Elizabeth Warren wrote about years and years ago,

473
00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:25,080
Speaker 1: which was the two parent income trap. The two parent

474
00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:28,840
Speaker 1: income trap is something that means you have two parents

475
00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:30,440
Speaker 1: that feel like they have to go out of the workplace.

476
00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:34,639
Speaker 1: Now it's too difficult because there has been I know

477
00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:38,320
Speaker 1: there are problems. I know this is not perfect. You know,

478
00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:42,800
Speaker 1: I did not get an advanced degree because it was

479
00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:47,000
Speaker 1: too expensive. I got into fantastic places, gooding out. A

480
00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:49,560
Speaker 1: master's degree would have been great, actually, all kinds of

481
00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:51,919
Speaker 1: different master's programs. I thought about getting a Security Studies

482
00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:54,160
Speaker 1: masters at one point too, and I basically have walked

483
00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:57,000
Speaker 1: into from the CIA to any program I wanted. But

484
00:27:57,080 --> 00:27:58,240
Speaker 1: the point is I didn't do it because it was

485
00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:05,119
Speaker 1: too expensive. Healthcare, housing, housing where there are jobs, and

486
00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:07,520
Speaker 1: education have become too expensive. These are also some of

487
00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:13,400
Speaker 1: the most regulated, government intensive sectors of the economy. Somehow

488
00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:16,800
Speaker 1: we have government backing student loans and now college that's

489
00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:18,960
Speaker 1: more and more and more expensive. These universities are just

490
00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:22,400
Speaker 1: just fattening themselves up. I mean, they're bloated with multi

491
00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:27,840
Speaker 1: billion dollars Dowmonds. It's beyond belief what's going on. And

492
00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:31,680
Speaker 1: healthcare is supposed to get better and cheaper for us,

493
00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:35,199
Speaker 1: and really a lot of healthcare all you see is

494
00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:38,640
Speaker 1: it's getting more expensive and less access, more expensive and

495
00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:42,160
Speaker 1: less access because they keep intruding on the market. Mechanisms

496
00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:44,200
Speaker 1: that would the same thing that makes your iPhone a

497
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:50,880
Speaker 1: supercomputer that would have more power to do computation than

498
00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:53,480
Speaker 1: every computer put together in the NATO Alliance, you know,

499
00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:57,720
Speaker 1: circa nineteen sixty your iPhone has more in it than

500
00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:00,280
Speaker 1: all all of the countries of NATO combined. And then

501
00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:04,360
Speaker 1: you know, fifty years ago that same mechanism of the

502
00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:06,760
Speaker 1: free market, we suppressed that when it comes to healthcare.

503
00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:10,000
Speaker 1: We don't want that to happen. We don't think that

504
00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:12,160
Speaker 1: anybody can come up with better ways to cure people,

505
00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:15,320
Speaker 1: to treat people if there was a financial incentive for them. No,

506
00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:19,240
Speaker 1: we'd rather have keep pushing down. The healthcare companies are

507
00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:23,200
Speaker 1: making too much money. The pharmaceutical companies are making too

508
00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:26,760
Speaker 1: much money. Well, pharmaceutical companies the people that go to

509
00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:29,440
Speaker 1: work for them, they could do something else too. But

510
00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:33,320
Speaker 1: I want to bring you into back to this daycare

511
00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:35,800
Speaker 1: that Bernie Sanders is promising for an everybody, because this

512
00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:41,320
Speaker 1: is important. You're in the Freedom Hunt. This is the

513
00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:47,960
Speaker 1: Buck Sexton Show podcast. So I was I mentioned to

514
00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:51,280
Speaker 1: you the daycare from the daycare proposal from Bernie Sanders,

515
00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:53,960
Speaker 1: And what we really should want in this country is

516
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:56,040
Speaker 1: the ability for a person who is in the has

517
00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:58,400
Speaker 1: a what we consider a middle class job, to be

518
00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:02,000
Speaker 1: able to live in a in a metro area where

519
00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:04,240
Speaker 1: there are jobs, because that's now where the greatest concentration

520
00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:06,680
Speaker 1: of new jobs tends to happen not in the city necessarily,

521
00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:10,080
Speaker 1: but around the city, and be able to support a

522
00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:16,120
Speaker 1: family on one salary. That would be because we fight

523
00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:19,120
Speaker 1: against this now. And I'm probably going to start introducing

524
00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:21,840
Speaker 1: some of the Marxist attacks on the family, because the

525
00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:24,360
Speaker 1: Marxists have always believed in separating the family, because the

526
00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:27,680
Speaker 1: family stands in place of the ultimate goal of a

527
00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:30,240
Speaker 1: true socialist, a true Marxist, which is not just radical

528
00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:33,800
Speaker 1: equality when you're talking about economics, but a radical equality

529
00:30:33,840 --> 00:30:39,560
Speaker 1: of all individuals without familial ties interfering with the relationship

530
00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:42,720
Speaker 1: with the state. The true socialists believe in the state

531
00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:45,360
Speaker 1: in place of God. This is at the heart of

532
00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:51,200
Speaker 1: socialist philosophy. We want a society in this country where

533
00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:55,000
Speaker 1: people are able to raise their own children, where you

534
00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:58,920
Speaker 1: don't have to have two parents going to work. And

535
00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:02,280
Speaker 1: then there's also this other issue of single parenthood in

536
00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:05,360
Speaker 1: this country. And how I know that things happen and

537
00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:08,480
Speaker 1: people make mistakes or things, you know, go against them,

538
00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:13,040
Speaker 1: but single parenthood has been glorified in this country and

539
00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:15,520
Speaker 1: the realities of it based on the numbers. Now, that

540
00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:19,000
Speaker 1: doesn't mean any individual case is good or bad. But

541
00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:22,320
Speaker 1: based on the numbers, single parenthood is very difficult for

542
00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:25,680
Speaker 1: the long term prospects for children. And there's it's just

543
00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:28,920
Speaker 1: it's it's irrefutable, more likely to have a substance abuse problem,

544
00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:31,200
Speaker 1: the kids more likely to go to prison, less likely

545
00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:34,040
Speaker 1: to finish high school. Let's lend me every metric. Let's

546
00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:40,120
Speaker 1: less income, so you get into okay. Well, but also,

547
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:43,200
Speaker 1: I mean if you're at a single parent household, or rather,

548
00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:47,520
Speaker 1: you know, if Bernie Sanders is advocating for this, you're

549
00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:50,040
Speaker 1: going to have situations now where people are spending even

550
00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:53,280
Speaker 1: less time. Now, now no parent will be spending most

551
00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:55,320
Speaker 1: of the day with the child. It'll be the state.

552
00:31:57,640 --> 00:32:00,360
Speaker 1: This is a story from The New York Times back

553
00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:05,240
Speaker 1: in nineteen seventy four. In the Soviet Union, daycare is

554
00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:10,120
Speaker 1: the norm. Zoya Edenko is the model of the young

555
00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:14,720
Speaker 1: Soviet mother, liberated by a local daycare center that permits

556
00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:17,440
Speaker 1: her to hold a job with her three year old

557
00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:20,040
Speaker 1: son and a state nursery. She works as a guide

558
00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:23,560
Speaker 1: for in tourist and sometimes also teaches English at night school.

559
00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:28,240
Speaker 1: Onto the highly subsidized Soviet daycare system, missus Edenko pays

560
00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:31,000
Speaker 1: a modest thirteen dollars a month, about one tenth of

561
00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:34,800
Speaker 1: her pay for six days a week of childcare. She

562
00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:37,320
Speaker 1: drops her boy off at eight am and picks him

563
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:40,840
Speaker 1: up at seven pm. He gets three meals and a

564
00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:45,400
Speaker 1: snack daily. Child rearing never had much attraction for missus Edenko.

565
00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:51,440
Speaker 1: I mean it goes on even more here. She actually

566
00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:55,240
Speaker 1: throws some shade at America. Quote. Don't American women want

567
00:32:55,240 --> 00:32:57,600
Speaker 1: to get out of the house, she asked, Don't you

568
00:32:57,680 --> 00:33:00,120
Speaker 1: want to work? Don't you want to earn money and

569
00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:05,400
Speaker 1: get some independence. But privately, many educated Soviet mothers take

570
00:33:05,440 --> 00:33:07,840
Speaker 1: a much more skeptical view of the Soviet daycare system

571
00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:10,960
Speaker 1: and regard the competence of most daycare workers as below

572
00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:17,200
Speaker 1: desirable standards. You don't say the Soviets, who you know,

573
00:33:17,280 --> 00:33:21,720
Speaker 1: had glass factories that only made broken glass. I'm sure

574
00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:24,080
Speaker 1: they did a great job educating your kid and taking

575
00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:26,640
Speaker 1: care of them or her, and making sure that that

576
00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:30,760
Speaker 1: child felt loved and supported and was getting all the

577
00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:33,520
Speaker 1: developmental needs they had met. I'm sure, I'm sure they

578
00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:40,480
Speaker 1: weren't dropped off in austere, cinder block Soviet style buildings

579
00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:45,320
Speaker 1: with a bunch of bureaucrats who could care less about

580
00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:47,920
Speaker 1: anything going on with these kids, and felt like as

581
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:49,600
Speaker 1: long as they made their way, you know, as long

582
00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:51,920
Speaker 1: as at the end of the day no kids left

583
00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:55,240
Speaker 1: the classroom, you know, in a tiny body bag, they'd

584
00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:57,440
Speaker 1: pretty much done their deal for the day. Good job,

585
00:33:58,040 --> 00:34:02,400
Speaker 1: good job Soviet Union. But notice the trend people have

586
00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:05,000
Speaker 1: been let you know, we see this deterioration, deterioration in

587
00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:09,680
Speaker 1: the family, in intact family units. It is. You can

588
00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:12,720
Speaker 1: read about this all the honor. Social scientists will tell you.

589
00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:15,480
Speaker 1: Intact families are critical for the development of a child.

590
00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:20,840
Speaker 1: You want to spend time with your children. And I'm

591
00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:22,560
Speaker 1: not even getting into the paying for this. I'm getting

592
00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:24,719
Speaker 1: into we really think that everyone should drop off their

593
00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:28,200
Speaker 1: their one year old. That's state daycare. That's now going

594
00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:32,240
Speaker 1: to be What about fami? What about family members? You know, grandparents, uncles, cousins,

595
00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:36,040
Speaker 1: whatever it is, people that are invested in the child.

596
00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:39,120
Speaker 1: This state is not invested in anything other than taking

597
00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:43,600
Speaker 1: your money and indoctrinating your children. The same way that

598
00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:46,200
Speaker 1: adults make a huge error when they think that the

599
00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:48,279
Speaker 1: state wants to hold them close and keep them safe

600
00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:53,520
Speaker 1: and warm at night, the same wrong thinking applies when

601
00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:56,040
Speaker 1: you're talking about dropping off your children in this state

602
00:34:56,120 --> 00:34:59,000
Speaker 1: daycare program where by the way, if you don't like

603
00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:01,839
Speaker 1: the state daycare program near you, what do you think happens? Then, Oh,

604
00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:04,960
Speaker 1: you're gonna go complain to somebody. Yeah, good luck with that.

605
00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:08,799
Speaker 1: I'm sure the local daycare commissar under the Sanders administration

606
00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:11,239
Speaker 1: is really going to care what you think about the

607
00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:15,280
Speaker 1: fact that the people in charge could give a crap

608
00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:17,799
Speaker 1: about your children. They just want to get paid with

609
00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:21,320
Speaker 1: your tax dollars. Thanks for listening to The Bus Sesson

Speaker 1: to happen more and more, not just in the United States,

615
00:35:38,320 --> 00:35:43,480
Speaker 1: but you've had experiences here in Germany, experiences across Europe. Come,

616
00:35:43,760 --> 00:35:46,400
Speaker 1: let's let's face up to the reality that if we

617
00:35:46,480 --> 00:35:50,520
Speaker 1: don't protect our democracy, we're slowly but steadily surrendering it

618
00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:53,920
Speaker 1: and the losing control of it. You know what politics

619
00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:56,520
Speaker 1: is a context for it. I mean people say all

620
00:35:56,560 --> 00:35:58,600
Speaker 1: sorts of things, because they certainly said all sorts of

621
00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:07,279
Speaker 1: things about me. Also, we're than many of our party

622
00:36:00,840 --> 00:36:11,920
Speaker 1: because blather from Hillary Clinton. She is shameless, utterly shameless.

623
00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:15,239
Speaker 1: She'll say anything. The fact that Democrats think that she

624
00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:19,719
Speaker 1: would have been some great choice for the presidency, that

625
00:36:19,840 --> 00:36:24,040
Speaker 1: she would have been this this ethical paragon, this virtuous leader,

626
00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:29,200
Speaker 1: is laughable. She could not be more corrupt. You know,

627
00:36:29,239 --> 00:36:32,120
Speaker 1: it couldn't be more obvious that there was an effort

628
00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:35,239
Speaker 1: to suppress what we could all see, which was at

629
00:36:35,239 --> 00:36:39,319
Speaker 1: the Clinton Foundation was a massive slush fund created for

630
00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:42,839
Speaker 1: the sole purpose of enriching and empowering the Clintons while

631
00:36:42,880 --> 00:36:45,279
Speaker 1: pretending to do charitable work. You haven't heard a lot

632
00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:48,600
Speaker 1: about the Clinton Foundation lately, have you. Those donations all

633
00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:50,920
Speaker 1: dried up real fast, and Hillary wasn't gonna be presdent anymore.

634
00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:55,200
Speaker 1: That's so weird, isn't it. Hm. And it's not like,

635
00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:57,120
Speaker 1: oh no, it is true that I was at I

636
00:36:57,200 --> 00:37:00,560
Speaker 1: was at CNN, and I was saying to people on air,

637
00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:04,040
Speaker 1: we all know the Clinton Foundation is like a fake charity, right,

638
00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:06,120
Speaker 1: and that the donations will see where they are after

639
00:37:06,120 --> 00:37:08,320
Speaker 1: the election. And of course I was right. But I

640
00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:11,560
Speaker 1: don't know, I don't know what's going on. But she

641
00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:14,960
Speaker 1: calls the president a First, she repeats the talking points

642
00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:18,160
Speaker 1: about Russia, which is just now, that is the hallmark

643
00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:23,719
Speaker 1: of a reckless, stupid, or dishonest person or all of

644
00:37:23,760 --> 00:37:27,200
Speaker 1: the above. Russia is not picking our leaders. No one

645
00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:30,480
Speaker 1: really thinks Russia's picking our leaders. This is this is ridiculous.

646
00:37:32,080 --> 00:37:36,359
Speaker 1: And if you look back in history, the KGB was

647
00:37:38,239 --> 00:37:43,120
Speaker 1: involved in paying for our newspapers, involved in information operations

648
00:37:43,120 --> 00:37:46,120
Speaker 1: against the United States, had high level did have high

649
00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:49,160
Speaker 1: level penetrations of the United States government, including Alger Hiss,

650
00:37:49,320 --> 00:37:51,759
Speaker 1: who was a Harvard trained lawyer, that the establishment in

651
00:37:51,800 --> 00:37:56,320
Speaker 1: this country flocked around. I mean they circled the wagons

652
00:37:56,320 --> 00:38:00,480
Speaker 1: to defend Alger Hiss and Whittaker Chambers, as he writes

653
00:38:00,520 --> 00:38:03,680
Speaker 1: about beautifully in the book Witness, which I recommend to

654
00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:06,520
Speaker 1: all of you, Whittaker Chambers is like, this guy is

655
00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:09,400
Speaker 1: a Soviet spy and he works at a senior level

656
00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:12,279
Speaker 1: of United States Government's a Soviet spy because the left

657
00:38:12,320 --> 00:38:14,839
Speaker 1: has always had a little bit of They've always had

658
00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:20,759
Speaker 1: this special fondness and familiarity with totalitarians and communists. They

659
00:38:20,800 --> 00:38:24,759
Speaker 1: always have had this because their mentality, their mindset is

660
00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:26,719
Speaker 1: that if the government only had more power, it would

661
00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:29,920
Speaker 1: make the problems go away. And they're the smart good people.

662
00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:32,120
Speaker 1: So if you take the smart good people and you

663
00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:35,200
Speaker 1: put them in power, then all of a sudden everything

664
00:38:35,239 --> 00:38:38,880
Speaker 1: gets better. Whereas conservatives, people like me and those of

665
00:38:38,880 --> 00:38:41,040
Speaker 1: your listening who are conservative, which is pretty much all

666
00:38:41,040 --> 00:38:46,479
Speaker 1: of you, we think, no, no, no, we want individual rights,

667
00:38:46,520 --> 00:38:50,160
Speaker 1: individual liberty to be protected under law, and we want

668
00:38:50,239 --> 00:38:53,640
Speaker 1: there to be clear restraints on what the government can

669
00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:57,160
Speaker 1: do because they're also our areas. The government should not

670
00:38:57,320 --> 00:39:00,319
Speaker 1: do things. It's not even just that we we don't

671
00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:03,600
Speaker 1: like the idea. There would be negative consequences from government action.

672
00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:07,439
Speaker 1: And this is the constant struggle that we have, Dani

673
00:39:07,600 --> 00:39:10,279
Speaker 1: and in our politics. But for Hillary Clinton to say

674
00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:15,919
Speaker 1: the Russia stuff, oh, she's she's just atrocious. She's atrocious

675
00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:20,359
Speaker 1: and we all know it, and they pretend that she well,

676
00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:22,720
Speaker 1: now they don't really care anymore, but they for years

677
00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:25,040
Speaker 1: we are told how smart and how capable and how

678
00:39:25,080 --> 00:39:30,319
Speaker 1: great she is the worst, she is the worst. Okay, no,

679
00:39:30,480 --> 00:39:33,560
Speaker 1: I gotta retract that Sanders is probably even worse. So

680
00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:37,120
Speaker 1: we've we've gone from bad to worse or the worst

681
00:39:37,120 --> 00:39:39,480
Speaker 1: with Hillary Clinton saying that Trump is a clear and

682
00:39:39,520 --> 00:39:41,520
Speaker 1: present danger to our demoxy in our future. You know

683
00:39:41,600 --> 00:39:43,279
Speaker 1: I'm focusing in so much todayn Senators, I want to

684
00:39:43,280 --> 00:39:45,040
Speaker 1: talk about some of the other Democrat candidates. We have

685
00:39:45,080 --> 00:39:52,400
Speaker 1: this debate tonight in South Carolina, but the crazy has

686
00:39:52,400 --> 00:39:54,600
Speaker 1: spread far and wide the Democratic Party. This is not

687
00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:59,600
Speaker 1: limited to one candidate or one candidate. Supporters Tom Steyer,

688
00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:03,520
Speaker 1: he is a billionaire, Which just goes to show you

689
00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:07,319
Speaker 1: that if you're really lucky in the right place at

690
00:40:07,320 --> 00:40:10,040
Speaker 1: the right time, you two, even if you have no judgment,

691
00:40:10,080 --> 00:40:14,080
Speaker 1: no wisdom whatsoever, and really no self awareness, you two

692
00:40:14,120 --> 00:40:18,799
Speaker 1: can be a billionaire. I suppose this is what a

693
00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:21,319
Speaker 1: voter or a Democrat obviously in South Carolina said to

694
00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:23,680
Speaker 1: Tom Steyer and his response, I just I want to

695
00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:26,960
Speaker 1: give you more evidence that the Democratic Party has spun

696
00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:29,399
Speaker 1: off of the planet and they're living in crazytown. Now

697
00:40:29,920 --> 00:40:32,680
Speaker 1: play a seven. I'm twenty seven years old and I

698
00:40:32,680 --> 00:40:35,160
Speaker 1: staw buying a house, getting married, and having kids ahead

699
00:40:35,160 --> 00:40:37,280
Speaker 1: of me. What do you say to people my age

700
00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:39,840
Speaker 1: and those who are younger, who are frankly terrified of

701
00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:42,160
Speaker 1: what climbing climate change will due to this planet and

702
00:40:42,160 --> 00:40:46,000
Speaker 1: our features. So in God on, thank you for asking

703
00:40:46,080 --> 00:40:51,560
Speaker 1: that question. Look, I am the only person running for

704
00:40:51,640 --> 00:40:55,120
Speaker 1: president who will say that climate is his or hurt

705
00:40:55,280 --> 00:40:59,000
Speaker 1: number one priority, the only one. Go ask him, the

706
00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:03,719
Speaker 1: only one. And I've said that. I will declare just

707
00:41:03,840 --> 00:41:07,360
Speaker 1: you know now, a state of emergency on climate on

708
00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:11,040
Speaker 1: the first day of my presidency, and I will use

709
00:41:11,440 --> 00:41:15,680
Speaker 1: the executive emergency powers of the presidency to tell companies

710
00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:19,560
Speaker 1: how they can generate electricity, what kind of cars they

711
00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:22,600
Speaker 1: can build on what schedule, what kind of buildings we're

712
00:41:22,600 --> 00:41:26,719
Speaker 1: going to have, how we're going to use our public lands,

713
00:41:26,719 --> 00:41:29,320
Speaker 1: how the government, which is the biggest buyer fossil fields

714
00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:33,719
Speaker 1: in the world, is going to move to clean energy. Yeah,

715
00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:37,240
Speaker 1: there's a lot, a lot to unpack there. Let's start

716
00:41:37,280 --> 00:41:41,680
Speaker 1: with a voter, a twenty seven year old woman saying

717
00:41:41,719 --> 00:41:48,759
Speaker 1: she is terrified of climate change. Be terrified of, you know,

718
00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:52,880
Speaker 1: making the wrong life choices, Be terrified of pandemic disease,

719
00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:58,399
Speaker 1: be terrified of the possibility of a major war with China.

720
00:41:58,440 --> 00:42:01,000
Speaker 1: I mean, there are things to really be concerned about.

721
00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:04,480
Speaker 1: To be terrified of climate change is to surrender to

722
00:42:04,520 --> 00:42:07,960
Speaker 1: a mental illness. Climate change is not coming for us.

723
00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:09,400
Speaker 1: It's not going to destroy us. It's not going to

724
00:42:09,480 --> 00:42:12,640
Speaker 1: kill us. This is insane. This really is not reasonable.

725
00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:17,680
Speaker 1: It's not rational at all. And I think that, you know,

726
00:42:17,719 --> 00:42:20,240
Speaker 1: they have to assume that I'm I'm somehow the crazy

727
00:42:20,239 --> 00:42:21,920
Speaker 1: one because I don't think the world is going down.

728
00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:24,279
Speaker 1: This is what American politics has done to people. The

729
00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:26,879
Speaker 1: guy who sits around saying no, no, the human race

730
00:42:26,920 --> 00:42:30,600
Speaker 1: will not go extinct unless we destroy essentially all the

731
00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:32,879
Speaker 1: major economic progress we've made in the last hundred years

732
00:42:32,960 --> 00:42:35,160
Speaker 1: or so. The human race will not go extinct if

733
00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:37,960
Speaker 1: we don't just give back all of those gains at

734
00:42:37,960 --> 00:42:46,479
Speaker 1: productivity and life, life expectancy and health and everything. I'm

735
00:42:46,520 --> 00:42:48,839
Speaker 1: the crazy one because I say that that's not going

736
00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:52,040
Speaker 1: to happen. So I feel almost I feel badly, but

737
00:42:52,080 --> 00:42:55,520
Speaker 1: I also feel very concerned when I hear things like this,

738
00:42:56,120 --> 00:42:58,439
Speaker 1: because there are things to worry about, and climate change

739
00:42:58,440 --> 00:42:59,560
Speaker 1: is not one of them. For a young woman to

740
00:42:59,600 --> 00:43:04,120
Speaker 1: say she's terrified of climate change, what exactly is she terrified?

741
00:43:04,120 --> 00:43:05,680
Speaker 1: Somebody should ask. I mean, I feel like I should

742
00:43:05,680 --> 00:43:07,880
Speaker 1: sit down and we could do a like a Sigmund

743
00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:10,040
Speaker 1: Freud like, So tell me all of your secrets and

744
00:43:10,200 --> 00:43:13,879
Speaker 1: your thoughts. What are you terrified of? Telling me about

745
00:43:13,920 --> 00:43:17,640
Speaker 1: your parents. You know, like this is this is where

746
00:43:17,640 --> 00:43:20,719
Speaker 1: you'd have to get into some buck pretending to be

747
00:43:20,719 --> 00:43:24,480
Speaker 1: a shrink, some psychotherapy. You're terrified of a thing that's

748
00:43:24,520 --> 00:43:26,400
Speaker 1: not going to hurt you in any way, shape or form,

749
00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:30,359
Speaker 1: of the global temperature changing. That's what worries you so much.

750
00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:32,960
Speaker 1: But this is like people that used to worry that

751
00:43:33,040 --> 00:43:36,080
Speaker 1: there was going to be you know, we're gonna run

752
00:43:36,080 --> 00:43:38,759
Speaker 1: out of food. We're gonna run out of food. That

753
00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:43,879
Speaker 1: was a belief. You know, you read airlics, the population bomb.

754
00:43:43,920 --> 00:43:46,160
Speaker 1: You know, we're going to reach a certain population growth

755
00:43:46,200 --> 00:43:48,680
Speaker 1: and then we're gonna have huge contraction. Not everyone's going

756
00:43:48,719 --> 00:43:50,279
Speaker 1: to die, but a huge contractions because we won't be

757
00:43:50,280 --> 00:43:52,319
Speaker 1: able to sustain it. And now the biggest problem we

758
00:43:52,320 --> 00:43:55,320
Speaker 1: have globally is people eat too many calories. That's a

759
00:43:55,400 --> 00:44:00,320
Speaker 1: much bigger concern than people not getting enough calories globally. So, okay,

760
00:44:01,719 --> 00:44:04,120
Speaker 1: she's terrified of climate changers, the bizarre. But then the

761
00:44:04,719 --> 00:44:07,920
Speaker 1: even more concerning part of this, other than that that

762
00:44:07,960 --> 00:44:12,600
Speaker 1: poor woman's emotional instability, is that Tom Steyer is just

763
00:44:12,680 --> 00:44:14,520
Speaker 1: saying that he's going to if he becomes president, which

764
00:44:14,560 --> 00:44:16,080
Speaker 1: I know is never going to happen. But I'm just

765
00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:19,720
Speaker 1: we're exploring a mentality here that's not just Biden. I'm sorry,

766
00:44:19,840 --> 00:44:23,840
Speaker 1: not just Bernie, although Biden's got his own problems. The

767
00:44:23,880 --> 00:44:26,520
Speaker 1: mentality is that once you become president, you just start

768
00:44:26,600 --> 00:44:31,280
Speaker 1: doing things. Obama did this, and the media was largely

769
00:44:31,320 --> 00:44:36,480
Speaker 1: silent about it or encouraged it. You know, Obama's mantra became,

770
00:44:37,080 --> 00:44:38,759
Speaker 1: Congress won't do what I want, So I'm just going

771
00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:40,919
Speaker 1: to do with myself as president with an executive order

772
00:44:40,920 --> 00:44:43,560
Speaker 1: and see if the courts will will stop you. And

773
00:44:43,600 --> 00:44:45,640
Speaker 1: the courts did a number of times and overturned him

774
00:44:45,680 --> 00:44:49,600
Speaker 1: for doing unconstitutional things. That was the reality of obama aministration.

775
00:44:49,600 --> 00:44:51,600
Speaker 1: But you never heard the same thing though, with Trump

776
00:44:51,680 --> 00:44:55,600
Speaker 1: is waging war on journalists. Meanwhile, Obama took real action

777
00:44:55,960 --> 00:44:58,480
Speaker 1: against journalists and use the Espionage Act more than every

778
00:44:58,520 --> 00:45:01,440
Speaker 1: other president before him combined. But you know, the journalists

779
00:45:01,520 --> 00:45:03,520
Speaker 1: rowed like one or two editorials they're like, this is

780
00:45:03,560 --> 00:45:07,640
Speaker 1: a concerning situation. They say that Trump is endangering journalists lives.

781
00:45:07,800 --> 00:45:10,440
Speaker 1: But oh, this is a concerning situation with Obama with

782
00:45:10,480 --> 00:45:13,520
Speaker 1: actual trying to prosecute people as co conspirators under the

783
00:45:13,640 --> 00:45:18,480
Speaker 1: Espionage actuard journalists. Journalists are frauds. I mean, really, it's funny.

784
00:45:18,480 --> 00:45:21,360
Speaker 1: I'm in this media profession and I'm not a journalist,

785
00:45:21,800 --> 00:45:25,840
Speaker 1: and I my contempt for mainstream journalists grows every day.

786
00:45:25,840 --> 00:45:28,919
Speaker 1: Every day. I feel like I'm more fed up with

787
00:45:28,960 --> 00:45:33,000
Speaker 1: what a bunch of just total jokes and jerks. They are.

788
00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:36,080
Speaker 1: Very few of them provide any real value. They all

789
00:45:36,160 --> 00:45:38,600
Speaker 1: they all just parrot each other, and they're all just

790
00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:44,279
Speaker 1: struggling to get more attention for their boring repetition of

791
00:45:44,320 --> 00:45:46,640
Speaker 1: the talking points of the Democrat Party in the American left.

792
00:45:46,640 --> 00:45:48,759
Speaker 1: That that's what they're doing all the time. I mean,

793
00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:50,239
Speaker 1: the ones who are valuable, the ones who are like

794
00:45:50,280 --> 00:45:54,479
Speaker 1: here's the traffic, here's the weather. Hey, here's a video

795
00:45:54,520 --> 00:45:56,239
Speaker 1: of some ducks that were saved at the pond by

796
00:45:56,239 --> 00:45:59,600
Speaker 1: the fire department. Yeah, like that's you know, okay, that's

797
00:45:59,600 --> 00:46:02,400
Speaker 1: provide people with something. The ones that just carry the

798
00:46:02,440 --> 00:46:04,239
Speaker 1: water for the Democratic Party all the time, we don't

799
00:46:04,280 --> 00:46:08,960
Speaker 1: need that. Just go just go go to the DNC website.

800
00:46:10,080 --> 00:46:12,560
Speaker 1: But Bernie, but does Styre here saying that he wants

801
00:46:12,600 --> 00:46:16,680
Speaker 1: to use executive power to con I mean basically to

802
00:46:16,680 --> 00:46:19,520
Speaker 1: control everything. What kind of cars they can build, what

803
00:46:19,600 --> 00:46:22,279
Speaker 1: kind of buildings we're gonna have, how we generate electricity.

804
00:46:23,440 --> 00:46:25,920
Speaker 1: So when I say things to you like climate change

805
00:46:26,760 --> 00:46:31,440
Speaker 1: is an excuse for socialist authoritarians to enact policies to

806
00:46:31,440 --> 00:46:34,239
Speaker 1: control every aspect of your life. That's not you. I'm

807
00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:36,680
Speaker 1: not coming up without out of thin air. That is

808
00:46:36,719 --> 00:46:40,160
Speaker 1: what they're doing. That is the idea, that is the approach.

809
00:46:41,800 --> 00:46:47,320
Speaker 1: So you end up asking yourself, Okay, these people are nuts,

810
00:46:47,760 --> 00:46:50,160
Speaker 1: and if they're in charge, they're going to just do

811
00:46:50,239 --> 00:46:52,759
Speaker 1: things forget about the Congress. They're just gonna do things

812
00:46:52,760 --> 00:46:56,080
Speaker 1: based on their crazy ideas. This is broader in the

813
00:46:56,120 --> 00:46:59,200
Speaker 1: Democratic Party. This is not just a problem of Bernie Sanders.

814
00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:01,360
Speaker 1: That's what I want to do, make sure that we

815
00:47:01,400 --> 00:47:09,400
Speaker 1: are all on the same page about. And then there's Biden. Oh,

816
00:47:09,520 --> 00:47:12,279
Speaker 1: Joe Biden. He's probably gonna win in South Carolina. And

817
00:47:12,320 --> 00:47:14,600
Speaker 1: then the Biden the Bidenistas out there in the media

818
00:47:14,600 --> 00:47:20,600
Speaker 1: will says, see here's the front runner. No, and we

819
00:47:20,680 --> 00:47:23,200
Speaker 1: start to get it into this place where I don't

820
00:47:23,200 --> 00:47:28,360
Speaker 1: want to be mean about Joe Biden's condition, but health

821
00:47:28,400 --> 00:47:31,799
Speaker 1: and mental faculties are a legitimate area of discussion for

822
00:47:31,880 --> 00:47:34,600
Speaker 1: the person who wants to be the president of the

823
00:47:34,680 --> 00:47:40,080
Speaker 1: United States. And this is not a one off. I mean,

824
00:47:40,080 --> 00:47:43,600
Speaker 1: this is becoming increasingly. The expectation around Joe Biden is

825
00:47:43,640 --> 00:47:45,560
Speaker 1: that he's going to have these what you would I

826
00:47:45,560 --> 00:47:50,680
Speaker 1: think call senior momentum, and this is an example of that.

827
00:47:50,719 --> 00:47:54,160
Speaker 1: Here's Joe Biden on the stump doing what he does.

828
00:47:54,719 --> 00:47:57,600
Speaker 1: Play clip five. You're the one's the same Barack Obama

829
00:47:57,640 --> 00:48:00,879
Speaker 1: in the presidency and I have a simple opposition here.

830
00:48:01,239 --> 00:48:03,560
Speaker 1: I'm here to ask you for your help. Where I

831
00:48:03,680 --> 00:48:06,480
Speaker 1: come from, you don't get far unless you ask. My

832
00:48:06,600 --> 00:48:09,480
Speaker 1: name's Joe Biden. I'm a Democratic candidate for the United

833
00:48:09,520 --> 00:48:12,560
Speaker 1: States Senate. Look me over, you're like, we see, help out,

834
00:48:12,560 --> 00:48:14,279
Speaker 1: and now vote for the other Biden. Give me a

835
00:48:14,280 --> 00:48:16,879
Speaker 1: look though. Okay, that's all I really got to say

836
00:48:16,920 --> 00:48:21,160
Speaker 1: to you, running for Senate, and if you don't like me,

837
00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:25,560
Speaker 1: vote for the other Biden. That was in one sentence.

838
00:48:27,480 --> 00:48:30,279
Speaker 1: I mean, if it were one of those things, and

839
00:48:30,360 --> 00:48:32,759
Speaker 1: he corrected it right away, I mean I misspeak. I

840
00:48:32,920 --> 00:48:35,600
Speaker 1: do extemper in his radio for four hours a day. Now,

841
00:48:36,600 --> 00:48:38,960
Speaker 1: I'm going to stumble, I'm going to say things incorrectly.

842
00:48:38,960 --> 00:48:40,680
Speaker 1: But if I ever said you know my name is

843
00:48:40,680 --> 00:48:45,000
Speaker 1: Bob Sexton. I promise you I would change that, I

844
00:48:45,000 --> 00:48:47,440
Speaker 1: would edit that, I wouldn't say it and then go, yeah,

845
00:48:47,480 --> 00:48:50,759
Speaker 1: it's good to be Bob. You know, Bob's hanging out. No,

846
00:48:51,480 --> 00:48:54,480
Speaker 1: you would catch that unless something else is going on.

847
00:48:54,800 --> 00:48:56,719
Speaker 1: And it wasn't one little slip. It was he's running

848
00:48:56,760 --> 00:48:58,360
Speaker 1: for president, he's not running for Senate, and there's no

849
00:48:58,400 --> 00:49:02,680
Speaker 1: other Biden in the race. Yeah, and he just kind

850
00:49:02,680 --> 00:49:06,560
Speaker 1: of went on with it. But then again, there's a

851
00:49:06,600 --> 00:49:09,400
Speaker 1: part of me that feels like maybe the greatest service

852
00:49:09,400 --> 00:49:12,200
Speaker 1: the Democratic Party the Democrat media can do right now,

853
00:49:12,719 --> 00:49:14,800
Speaker 1: he used to say, the Democratic Party from a Bernie

854
00:49:14,840 --> 00:49:19,440
Speaker 1: Sanders nomination. I mean, maybe they're much more cynical about

855
00:49:19,440 --> 00:49:21,239
Speaker 1: this than I had I had really given them credit

856
00:49:21,280 --> 00:49:24,640
Speaker 1: for or anticipated. I think that's also possible that they

857
00:49:24,719 --> 00:49:30,360
Speaker 1: recognize what a disaster Bernie Sanders would be for the party,

858
00:49:31,080 --> 00:49:34,400
Speaker 1: and so perhaps some of them, somewhere in their minds

859
00:49:34,440 --> 00:49:37,439
Speaker 1: feel like if they have to prop Biden up some more,

860
00:49:38,360 --> 00:49:40,640
Speaker 1: then that's what they're gonna do. That's the best thing

861
00:49:40,680 --> 00:49:43,760
Speaker 1: they can do for the party. We'll see about Bloomberg.

862
00:49:43,800 --> 00:49:46,279
Speaker 1: There was a funny me making the rounds today well,

863
00:49:46,280 --> 00:49:48,360
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. It wasn't a meme. Wasn't a meme? Pardon me,

864
00:49:48,400 --> 00:49:51,720
Speaker 1: it was a I'm Joe Biden, I'm running for president.

865
00:49:53,239 --> 00:49:57,680
Speaker 1: It was a screenshots of the Los Angeles Times, one

866
00:49:57,719 --> 00:49:59,520
Speaker 1: of the homepages in Los Angeles Times for one of

867
00:49:59,560 --> 00:50:01,799
Speaker 1: their sections, and the thing that it looked like the

868
00:50:01,800 --> 00:50:06,480
Speaker 1: Bloomberg twenty website. I mean, just Bloomberg ads all over it.

869
00:50:06,760 --> 00:50:09,759
Speaker 1: I don't think it was photoshop. That can't I can't

870
00:50:09,800 --> 00:50:11,680
Speaker 1: tell you right off the bat, but it certainly seemed

871
00:50:11,719 --> 00:50:13,319
Speaker 1: like it would be real. I mean, Bloomberg is just

872
00:50:13,560 --> 00:50:17,359
Speaker 1: blanketing coverage everywhere. I think that one of the one

873
00:50:17,400 --> 00:50:21,320
Speaker 1: of the nice side effects of a Bloomberg the Bloomberg

874
00:50:21,400 --> 00:50:24,479
Speaker 1: run for president, is that he is really trying to play.

875
00:50:24,640 --> 00:50:26,920
Speaker 1: It's almost like he's setting this up as an experiment,

876
00:50:27,000 --> 00:50:30,319
Speaker 1: can you buy the presidency? And when he is not

877
00:50:30,440 --> 00:50:34,160
Speaker 1: successful in doing so, when people on the left, because

878
00:50:34,160 --> 00:50:36,480
Speaker 1: they always democrats, always pretend like big money is just

879
00:50:36,560 --> 00:50:38,920
Speaker 1: a Republican thing, when they say we're run money out

880
00:50:38,920 --> 00:50:41,160
Speaker 1: of politics and you can't buy you know, he's trying

881
00:50:41,160 --> 00:50:43,600
Speaker 1: to buy this office without office, we can say no, no,

882
00:50:44,160 --> 00:50:46,359
Speaker 1: Bloomberg tried to buy it. And you can't just do that.

883
00:50:46,360 --> 00:50:50,600
Speaker 1: The candidate still matters. If you have effectively unlimited funds,

884
00:50:51,760 --> 00:50:55,480
Speaker 1: you still can't buy the presidency. But the thing about this,

885
00:50:55,800 --> 00:50:58,720
Speaker 1: we're in a situation where somebody who is worth fifty

886
00:50:58,960 --> 00:51:03,000
Speaker 1: billion dollars is spending billions of dollars on a presidential candidacy,

887
00:51:03,440 --> 00:51:09,200
Speaker 1: and there are still journalists out there, Hillary Clinton, we'll

888
00:51:09,239 --> 00:51:12,160
Speaker 1: say it too, many of many of the Democrats, that

889
00:51:12,320 --> 00:51:15,120
Speaker 1: Russia is interfering in the election, and maybe Russia is

890
00:51:15,160 --> 00:51:19,040
Speaker 1: going to cost one side or the other. We'll make

891
00:51:19,080 --> 00:51:22,000
Speaker 1: Trump win. If that's what they're really saying. Even with

892
00:51:22,040 --> 00:51:24,319
Speaker 1: the billions of dollars being spent by Americans on an

893
00:51:24,320 --> 00:51:27,640
Speaker 1: American presidential election, if the Russians were able to sway

894
00:51:28,160 --> 00:51:31,040
Speaker 1: this election outcome, we should just quit tomorrow. We should

895
00:51:31,040 --> 00:51:33,920
Speaker 1: stop having elections because we'll never be able to have

896
00:51:33,960 --> 00:51:37,399
Speaker 1: a free and fair election. Again. This is lunacy. This

897
00:51:37,480 --> 00:51:42,960
Speaker 1: is utter lunacy. You're in the freedom hunt. This is

898
00:51:43,000 --> 00:51:49,680
Speaker 1: the Buck Sexton Show podcast. David. One of the things

899
00:51:49,680 --> 00:51:51,719
Speaker 1: that's so we're interesting and I think sinister about this

900
00:51:51,760 --> 00:51:54,560
Speaker 1: stuff is that it really does have the impact of

901
00:51:54,600 --> 00:51:57,719
Speaker 1: trying to increase cynicism and apathy that that's part of

902
00:51:57,760 --> 00:52:00,680
Speaker 1: its goal to sort of muddy the waters, tell us

903
00:52:00,680 --> 00:52:03,200
Speaker 1: a little bit about about your insights into that. Well

904
00:52:03,239 --> 00:52:06,280
Speaker 1: it has it has an effect also on people's affirmative ideas.

905
00:52:06,480 --> 00:52:08,279
Speaker 1: One of the things that Donald Trump tried to spend

906
00:52:08,320 --> 00:52:11,040
Speaker 1: spread in twenty sixteen was the idea that Hillary Clinton

907
00:52:11,160 --> 00:52:15,240
Speaker 1: was sho physically incapable of managing the presidency. Audacious. Donald

908
00:52:15,239 --> 00:52:18,720
Speaker 1: Trump was the oldest president ever, one of the fattest

909
00:52:18,760 --> 00:52:22,280
Speaker 1: presidents ever, the least physically capable of president since Franklin

910
00:52:22,320 --> 00:52:24,239
Speaker 1: Delano Roosevelt was in a wheelchair. I mean that he

911
00:52:24,280 --> 00:52:27,120
Speaker 1: can't pick up a ball, never mind throw it. But

912
00:52:27,600 --> 00:52:29,919
Speaker 1: he was able to put into the minds of tens

913
00:52:29,920 --> 00:52:32,200
Speaker 1: of millions of people the idea that Hillary Clinton, who's

914
00:52:32,200 --> 00:52:34,879
Speaker 1: a very vigorous woman in good health, was somehow too

915
00:52:34,880 --> 00:52:38,319
Speaker 1: sick to be president. Thanks never Trump for more stupidity.

916
00:52:38,680 --> 00:52:41,840
Speaker 1: David frum over there who runs away from it. He

917
00:52:41,840 --> 00:52:44,480
Speaker 1: actually does have some correct positions on things like immigration,

918
00:52:44,600 --> 00:52:47,680
Speaker 1: immigration where he's thought about a little bit. But Trump

919
00:52:47,719 --> 00:52:50,160
Speaker 1: is one of the fattest presidents ever. I think it's interesting.

920
00:52:50,200 --> 00:52:53,040
Speaker 1: I mean, we're going to start talking about that now, Huh.

921
00:52:56,320 --> 00:53:00,440
Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton flopped into the back of a van on

922
00:53:00,680 --> 00:53:05,720
Speaker 1: video right before the election, I think, and they pretended

923
00:53:05,760 --> 00:53:09,799
Speaker 1: initially like there was nothing going on. She just stumbled, no,

924
00:53:09,960 --> 00:53:13,040
Speaker 1: she flopped into the back of a van. All Right,

925
00:53:13,440 --> 00:53:17,399
Speaker 1: you're allowed to wonder what's going on there? That wasn't

926
00:53:17,600 --> 00:53:19,919
Speaker 1: you know that it wasn't some huge conspiracy from Trump.

927
00:53:19,920 --> 00:53:22,919
Speaker 1: But as you see here, never Trump. They're so dug

928
00:53:22,960 --> 00:53:25,239
Speaker 1: in in their hatred for this guy because they feel

929
00:53:25,280 --> 00:53:27,640
Speaker 1: like they've bet their careers, they've bet their paychecks or

930
00:53:27,920 --> 00:53:30,640
Speaker 1: you know, their their fame and their importance. Their ego

931
00:53:31,160 --> 00:53:33,440
Speaker 1: is so tied into anti Trump is m that they

932
00:53:33,440 --> 00:53:36,520
Speaker 1: can't even c straight anymore. Thanks for listening to The

935
00:53:45,120 --> 00:53:47,440
Speaker 1: I was wondering do you think justice was served in

936
00:53:47,480 --> 00:53:50,359
Speaker 1: the Harvey Weinstein case? So I was never a fan

937
00:53:50,400 --> 00:53:53,160
Speaker 1: of Harvey Weinstein, as you know. In fact, he said

938
00:53:53,160 --> 00:53:55,480
Speaker 1: he was going to work hard to defeat me in

939
00:53:55,560 --> 00:53:57,719
Speaker 1: the election. How did that work out? By the way,

940
00:53:57,760 --> 00:54:02,120
Speaker 1: I'm trying to figure that he was a person I

941
00:54:02,120 --> 00:54:05,319
Speaker 1: didn't like, I like. I don't know too much about

942
00:54:05,320 --> 00:54:09,759
Speaker 1: the case. Between traveling and ken being at meetings almost

943
00:54:09,800 --> 00:54:11,719
Speaker 1: every hour of the day, every minute of the day,

944
00:54:11,760 --> 00:54:13,600
Speaker 1: I haven't been able to really see too much of it,

945
00:54:14,120 --> 00:54:15,680
Speaker 1: but I was just not a fan of his. I

946
00:54:16,640 --> 00:54:18,560
Speaker 1: knew him a little bit, not very well. I knew

947
00:54:18,600 --> 00:54:22,600
Speaker 1: him because he was in New York. Not a person

948
00:54:22,640 --> 00:54:25,000
Speaker 1: that I like. I will say the people that liked

949
00:54:25,040 --> 00:54:29,640
Speaker 1: him with the Democrats, Michelle Obama loved him, loved him,

950
00:54:29,719 --> 00:54:33,560
Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton loved him, and he gave tremendous money to

951
00:54:33,600 --> 00:54:35,799
Speaker 1: the Democrats. And I guess my question is will the

952
00:54:35,800 --> 00:54:38,320
Speaker 1: Democrats be asking for that money back? Not going to

953
00:54:38,400 --> 00:54:39,960
Speaker 1: hear that from a lot of the main three mallets

954
00:54:40,000 --> 00:54:43,120
Speaker 1: right now that are celebrating the Weinstein verdict as a

955
00:54:43,200 --> 00:54:49,359
Speaker 1: huge win for women, which I think there's there's some

956
00:54:49,760 --> 00:54:52,399
Speaker 1: there's some truth to that, but there's also some concerning

957
00:54:52,600 --> 00:54:57,120
Speaker 1: follow on legal implications, I believe, and I don't know.

958
00:54:57,200 --> 00:54:58,759
Speaker 1: No one really seems to want to talk about this

959
00:54:58,800 --> 00:55:00,000
Speaker 1: right now, and I'll get into that part of it

960
00:55:00,000 --> 00:55:03,640
Speaker 1: in the second. But journalists running arond patting themselves in

961
00:55:03,640 --> 00:55:06,040
Speaker 1: the back for the Weinstein verdict saying see journalism still

962
00:55:06,120 --> 00:55:10,200
Speaker 1: is important. No journalists covered up for this guy and

963
00:55:10,200 --> 00:55:13,239
Speaker 1: did his bidding for decades, and then when he got

964
00:55:13,280 --> 00:55:15,200
Speaker 1: a little old and a little less powerful, a little

965
00:55:15,239 --> 00:55:18,560
Speaker 1: less useful, then all of a sudden it was time

966
00:55:18,600 --> 00:55:21,640
Speaker 1: to write the big expose, the Ronan Pharaoh piece. But

967
00:55:21,920 --> 00:55:24,920
Speaker 1: I can't help but remember that Ronan Faroh, who I

968
00:55:24,920 --> 00:55:27,319
Speaker 1: think won a Pulitzer for this and became the celebrated guy.

969
00:55:27,840 --> 00:55:29,880
Speaker 1: I still remember. He had the worst. I mean, it

970
00:55:29,960 --> 00:55:35,400
Speaker 1: really was all time the worst cable news commentary show

971
00:55:35,520 --> 00:55:37,640
Speaker 1: ever put on the air in my lifetime, the worst.

972
00:55:37,640 --> 00:55:40,879
Speaker 1: I mean, I think Alec Baldwin's show was better. Ronn

973
00:55:40,920 --> 00:55:43,520
Speaker 1: Faro would sort of sit there and yes, I'm going

974
00:55:43,600 --> 00:55:47,520
Speaker 1: to do an interviewed out. Yeah, did I tell you

975
00:55:47,560 --> 00:55:49,880
Speaker 1: I've worked at the State Department for like three months

976
00:55:50,120 --> 00:55:53,920
Speaker 1: and was really important at wrote Scaler and you know,

977
00:55:53,960 --> 00:55:56,960
Speaker 1: it was just horrible. And then he came out and

978
00:55:56,960 --> 00:55:58,680
Speaker 1: he wrote this piece, and he took some heat, and

979
00:55:58,719 --> 00:56:02,279
Speaker 1: he was willing to take the risk here. But he

980
00:56:02,320 --> 00:56:04,160
Speaker 1: had the goods on wins and he knew he did.

981
00:56:04,560 --> 00:56:06,160
Speaker 1: I mean, the fact that NBC didn't want to run

982
00:56:06,200 --> 00:56:08,120
Speaker 1: with it initially is an interesting part of the story.

983
00:56:08,160 --> 00:56:11,040
Speaker 1: But he knew he had him. There was no there

984
00:56:11,160 --> 00:56:13,000
Speaker 1: was no like wiggling out when you got all these

985
00:56:13,000 --> 00:56:16,400
Speaker 1: people on the record everything else. I give him credit,

986
00:56:16,640 --> 00:56:18,560
Speaker 1: you know he did, he did publish a story at first.

987
00:56:18,560 --> 00:56:23,719
Speaker 1: But I also can't forget that that credibility in the

988
00:56:23,840 --> 00:56:26,600
Speaker 1: Meto movement that Ronan Faraoh built by going after Harvey

989
00:56:26,640 --> 00:56:30,600
Speaker 1: Weinstein was then weaponized for political purposes during the Kavanaugh

990
00:56:30,640 --> 00:56:40,040
Speaker 1: hearing with that just appallingly flimsy and obviously false story

991
00:56:40,239 --> 00:56:43,640
Speaker 1: about Deborah Ramirez at Yale that he went with. Where

992
00:56:43,640 --> 00:56:47,319
Speaker 1: he you know, the people that did know about it

993
00:56:47,440 --> 00:56:50,120
Speaker 1: or didn't did you know, know about her, didn't believe

994
00:56:50,160 --> 00:56:51,799
Speaker 1: that it had happened, And I mean it just you

995
00:56:51,880 --> 00:56:54,840
Speaker 1: go back into it and they just were They were like, Ronan,

996
00:56:55,120 --> 00:56:57,759
Speaker 1: we need you here. It's about Rove Wade. You gotta

997
00:56:57,800 --> 00:56:59,799
Speaker 1: do what you gotta do, step in there and take

998
00:56:59,840 --> 00:57:03,040
Speaker 1: down Kavanaugh. So I remember that. I'm not going to

999
00:57:03,120 --> 00:57:05,520
Speaker 1: forget that. So as far as I'm concerned, he's just

1000
00:57:05,560 --> 00:57:09,480
Speaker 1: another hack. He threw away his credibility with that. He

1001
00:57:09,520 --> 00:57:11,000
Speaker 1: didn't have to do that. I think it was with

1002
00:57:11,120 --> 00:57:13,960
Speaker 1: Jane Jane Mayer too. I mean, they just they thought

1003
00:57:14,000 --> 00:57:17,200
Speaker 1: they had an opportunity to take down Kavanaugh and it

1004
00:57:17,240 --> 00:57:20,640
Speaker 1: was a hit. It was a dirty political hit. It

1005
00:57:20,760 --> 00:57:23,800
Speaker 1: was a lie. I'm sorry. You don't take a week

1006
00:57:24,200 --> 00:57:27,080
Speaker 1: to get counseling on your memories to remember if some

1007
00:57:27,160 --> 00:57:32,600
Speaker 1: guy in college hit you in the face with his genitalia,

1008
00:57:32,680 --> 00:57:34,320
Speaker 1: you know, you don't it doesn't take it. And if

1009
00:57:34,320 --> 00:57:37,240
Speaker 1: you're so traumatized by it, it wouldn't take you a

1010
00:57:37,240 --> 00:57:39,840
Speaker 1: week to remember this, which is what happened with Debora Ramira.

1011
00:57:39,920 --> 00:57:42,240
Speaker 1: I mean, the whole thing was but you know, it's

1012
00:57:42,240 --> 00:57:44,280
Speaker 1: like all these other stories that came out, Julie Sweatnick,

1013
00:57:44,320 --> 00:57:46,160
Speaker 1: you know, the gang rape, cruise, everything, this was. It

1014
00:57:46,200 --> 00:57:49,240
Speaker 1: was all just everything you can It was really the

1015
00:57:49,240 --> 00:57:52,720
Speaker 1: weaponization of gender against Kavanaugh. That was what was going on,

1016
00:57:54,440 --> 00:57:57,520
Speaker 1: and thank god, and it was close, but thank god

1017
00:57:57,640 --> 00:58:01,440
Speaker 1: Kavanaugh was able to withstand it. And the United States

1018
00:58:01,440 --> 00:58:02,919
Speaker 1: Senate did do the right thing. I mean, you got

1019
00:58:02,920 --> 00:58:06,480
Speaker 1: to remember, at least the Republicans did so. Okay, now

1020
00:58:06,480 --> 00:58:08,960
Speaker 1: we look at what Trump is saying here about Weinstein.

1021
00:58:10,600 --> 00:58:13,960
Speaker 1: Weinstein wasn't just a guy who was friends with Democrats.

1022
00:58:14,040 --> 00:58:17,080
Speaker 1: Weinstein was close to the most powerful Democrats in the country,

1023
00:58:17,280 --> 00:58:21,080
Speaker 1: which he used and leveraged in order to frighten women

1024
00:58:21,440 --> 00:58:23,640
Speaker 1: and anyone who would speak about what he was doing

1025
00:58:23,640 --> 00:58:27,880
Speaker 1: to women into silence. So that's something that should get

1026
00:58:27,920 --> 00:58:29,760
Speaker 1: more attention, should get looked at more. I mean, here

1027
00:58:29,840 --> 00:58:33,240
Speaker 1: is for example. Remember there were stories. Everybody knew the

1028
00:58:33,240 --> 00:58:37,160
Speaker 1: stories about Harvey Weinstein being a guy who was very

1029
00:58:37,200 --> 00:58:39,320
Speaker 1: aggressive with women, very difficult to do. I actually just

1030
00:58:39,320 --> 00:58:41,160
Speaker 1: spoke to somebody recently who had done business with him

1031
00:58:41,160 --> 00:58:43,640
Speaker 1: back when he was a concert promoter. That's how we got.

1032
00:58:43,640 --> 00:58:46,080
Speaker 1: Started out as a concert promoter and then he moved

1033
00:58:46,080 --> 00:58:48,440
Speaker 1: into doing the Hollywood studio stuff, and just said he

1034
00:58:48,480 --> 00:58:53,960
Speaker 1: was impossible to deal with, a nasty, dishonest guy. So

1035
00:58:54,040 --> 00:58:59,200
Speaker 1: Democrats love him, powerful, rich, influential in the culture. But

1036
00:58:59,320 --> 00:59:04,400
Speaker 1: a nasty, a moral, predatory, left wing lib. Hey, that

1037
00:59:04,480 --> 00:59:06,880
Speaker 1: fits right into the Democrat you know. The Democrats think

1038
00:59:06,880 --> 00:59:09,960
Speaker 1: that's all great. And I mean, here's for example, and

1039
00:59:10,040 --> 00:59:15,840
Speaker 1: Trump said, Trump said that Harvey Weinstein was liked by

1040
00:59:15,880 --> 00:59:19,320
Speaker 1: these different very powerful figures. Here's Michelle Obama talking about

1041
00:59:19,320 --> 00:59:23,160
Speaker 1: Harvey Weinstein. Play clip three. I want to start by

1042
00:59:23,320 --> 00:59:32,520
Speaker 1: thanking Harvey Weinstein for organizing this amazing day. This is

1043
00:59:32,560 --> 00:59:36,680
Speaker 1: possible because of Harvey. He is a wonderful human being,

1044
00:59:36,920 --> 00:59:41,160
Speaker 1: a good friend, and just a powerhouse and the fact

1045
00:59:41,160 --> 00:59:43,520
Speaker 1: that he and his team so that the time to

1046
00:59:43,680 --> 00:59:46,360
Speaker 1: make this happen for all of you should say something

1047
00:59:46,480 --> 00:59:49,040
Speaker 1: not about me or about this place, but about you.

1048
00:59:49,560 --> 00:59:53,960
Speaker 1: All right, everybody here here because of you a wonderful

1049
00:59:54,080 --> 00:59:57,480
Speaker 1: human being. And this was just I don't know, probably

1050
00:59:57,680 --> 01:00:00,680
Speaker 1: this was during the Obama presidency, just a few years

1051
01:00:00,720 --> 01:00:03,680
Speaker 1: ago that that SoundBite was we pulled that sound bite.

1052
01:00:03,720 --> 01:00:07,760
Speaker 1: And if you believe all of the women who testified

1053
01:00:07,760 --> 01:00:11,920
Speaker 1: against Harvey Weinstein, he's been raping women since the nineties.

1054
01:00:13,000 --> 01:00:18,040
Speaker 1: But here you have probably the single most popular Democrat

1055
01:00:18,160 --> 01:00:20,240
Speaker 1: figure in the United States. It's always kind of it's

1056
01:00:20,240 --> 01:00:22,880
Speaker 1: Oprah or Michelle Obama. You know, there's only a few

1057
01:00:22,920 --> 01:00:27,000
Speaker 1: people that are as universally beloved and all the polling

1058
01:00:27,040 --> 01:00:30,560
Speaker 1: and everything else saying that he's a wonderful human being.

1059
01:00:32,360 --> 01:00:34,000
Speaker 1: Do you think anyone in that power structure will be

1060
01:00:34,000 --> 01:00:37,560
Speaker 1: held to account for this. Journalists didn't want to cover

1061
01:00:37,600 --> 01:00:39,400
Speaker 1: this story, and now they pat themselves in the back.

1062
01:00:40,320 --> 01:00:42,840
Speaker 1: Journalists didn't want to cover Epstein, who was also connected

1063
01:00:42,880 --> 01:00:47,040
Speaker 1: to all of these very powerful Democrats. Democrats are the

1064
01:00:47,040 --> 01:00:49,440
Speaker 1: ones that Epstein was. They focused so much on Prince

1065
01:00:49,480 --> 01:00:53,280
Speaker 1: Andrew because he's at least external to American politics. The

1066
01:00:53,400 --> 01:00:56,320
Speaker 1: media is all look at the Prince Andrew situation. Epstein

1067
01:00:56,680 --> 01:00:58,600
Speaker 1: spent a lot of time with Bill Clinton, spent a

1068
01:00:58,640 --> 01:01:01,880
Speaker 1: lot of time with some other prominent Democrats. They didn't

1069
01:01:01,920 --> 01:01:06,280
Speaker 1: want to touch that. Look, I understand that the pressures

1070
01:01:06,360 --> 01:01:08,640
Speaker 1: that come up in the media business, it's very uncertain,

1071
01:01:08,720 --> 01:01:12,480
Speaker 1: it's very unfair. I just have a problem with people

1072
01:01:12,480 --> 01:01:15,960
Speaker 1: pretending to be brave when they're actually just sniveling cowards.

1073
01:01:16,560 --> 01:01:21,040
Speaker 1: And most journalists on these issues have been sniveling cowards.

1074
01:01:20,800 --> 01:01:23,720
Speaker 1: There's there's no question about that. Now I go to

1075
01:01:23,840 --> 01:01:27,960
Speaker 1: the why, Okay, yeah, Harvey Weinstein. Do I think that

1076
01:01:28,120 --> 01:01:33,080
Speaker 1: he has forced himself on women? Based on the testimony

1077
01:01:33,080 --> 01:01:34,760
Speaker 1: of yeah, I do. I think he has. I think

1078
01:01:34,760 --> 01:01:37,120
Speaker 1: he's I think he has actually assaulted women. I do

1079
01:01:37,160 --> 01:01:41,440
Speaker 1: believe that. But here's what I do have a problem with,

1080
01:01:41,480 --> 01:01:42,520
Speaker 1: and I think the jury had a bit of a

1081
01:01:42,560 --> 01:01:44,640
Speaker 1: problem with this too, because they did not go for

1082
01:01:44,640 --> 01:01:47,040
Speaker 1: the highest counts of predatory sexual assault. Now we don't

1083
01:01:47,040 --> 01:01:51,720
Speaker 1: know exactly why that is, but it now there's now

1084
01:01:51,760 --> 01:01:54,320
Speaker 1: been at a very high pro and the highest profile

1085
01:01:54,400 --> 01:01:57,000
Speaker 1: case you could really think of for this kind of issue.

1086
01:01:57,760 --> 01:02:00,600
Speaker 1: There has been a standard set whereby a woman can

1087
01:02:02,560 --> 01:02:05,600
Speaker 1: have an interest in having a sexual relationship with a

1088
01:02:05,640 --> 01:02:12,520
Speaker 1: man and can claim that there was an attack, a

1089
01:02:12,680 --> 01:02:19,000
Speaker 1: felonious rape occurred, and then after that felony, after that

1090
01:02:19,040 --> 01:02:22,160
Speaker 1: criminal act that could send that man to prison for

1091
01:02:22,520 --> 01:02:25,240
Speaker 1: twenty five years, as we see now, at least that's

1092
01:02:25,240 --> 01:02:27,840
Speaker 1: what it is in New York. After committing a crime

1093
01:02:27,880 --> 01:02:29,520
Speaker 1: that could send you a prison for twenty five years,

1094
01:02:29,680 --> 01:02:32,520
Speaker 1: that woman could, of her own volition, not married to him,

1095
01:02:32,760 --> 01:02:35,320
Speaker 1: doesn't live with him, not you know, in fear of

1096
01:02:35,320 --> 01:02:38,080
Speaker 1: her life or physical abuse constantly. That woman can then

1097
01:02:38,120 --> 01:02:44,919
Speaker 1: continue a long term, ongoing not just relationship, sexual relationship

1098
01:02:45,440 --> 01:02:50,920
Speaker 1: with that man by her own choice, and then at

1099
01:02:50,960 --> 01:02:54,600
Speaker 1: a later date say, but but that one time he

1100
01:02:54,720 --> 01:02:56,360
Speaker 1: raped me, so he should go to prison for the

1101
01:02:56,360 --> 01:03:01,720
Speaker 1: rest of his life. I'm just telling him, maybe you

1102
01:03:01,720 --> 01:03:04,640
Speaker 1: believe in this case that is exactly what happened. And okay,

1103
01:03:04,520 --> 01:03:06,520
Speaker 1: maybe maybe that is exactly what happened in this case.

1104
01:03:06,800 --> 01:03:08,760
Speaker 1: This is a precedent now though, the same way that

1105
01:03:08,760 --> 01:03:11,960
Speaker 1: I knew that ronand Farrow, after all the accolades about

1106
01:03:11,960 --> 01:03:13,760
Speaker 1: breaking the meat too story, just give it time. He's

1107
01:03:13,800 --> 01:03:15,480
Speaker 1: going to go after a big Republican It was very

1108
01:03:15,480 --> 01:03:17,720
Speaker 1: obvious they were going to use this to go after

1109
01:03:17,880 --> 01:03:20,280
Speaker 1: and they use it in the biggest, the biggest form

1110
01:03:20,680 --> 01:03:23,400
Speaker 1: they could. They took the biggest shot they had against Kavanaugh,

1111
01:03:24,200 --> 01:03:26,400
Speaker 1: and he was a part of that. You will now

1112
01:03:26,480 --> 01:03:31,720
Speaker 1: see this story of a case will return where a

1113
01:03:31,760 --> 01:03:33,800
Speaker 1: woman will claim that a very powerful man that she

1114
01:03:33,800 --> 01:03:36,880
Speaker 1: had a long term sexual relationship with, at some point

1115
01:03:37,440 --> 01:03:40,600
Speaker 1: during that relationship, forced himself upon her or you know,

1116
01:03:40,640 --> 01:03:44,680
Speaker 1: she felt physically violated, and even though after that she's all,

1117
01:03:45,000 --> 01:03:46,840
Speaker 1: you know, I love you, which is what they were

1118
01:03:46,840 --> 01:03:48,360
Speaker 1: saying to Harvey. Were two of the women were saying,

1119
01:03:48,920 --> 01:03:52,240
Speaker 1: I love you, Harvey Weinstein. They would say, please spend

1120
01:03:52,280 --> 01:03:54,200
Speaker 1: more time with me, Please have sex with me again.

1121
01:03:55,400 --> 01:03:57,720
Speaker 1: There will be a cases now where, going forward, a

1122
01:03:57,720 --> 01:04:01,560
Speaker 1: woman will have that same kind of ongoing emotional and

1123
01:04:01,640 --> 01:04:05,280
Speaker 1: sexual relationship with a man, but all of a sudden

1124
01:04:06,600 --> 01:04:09,280
Speaker 1: she will decide that no, there was I was actually raped,

1125
01:04:09,320 --> 01:04:10,880
Speaker 1: and I wanted to press charges and I want that

1126
01:04:10,960 --> 01:04:13,360
Speaker 1: this person should be destroyed by the criminal justice system

1127
01:04:13,480 --> 01:04:15,680
Speaker 1: for what they did to me. Now, if they did

1128
01:04:15,680 --> 01:04:17,800
Speaker 1: actually force themselves on her, and you know, rape is

1129
01:04:17,840 --> 01:04:19,400
Speaker 1: a serious crime and it's a felony, and that should

1130
01:04:19,400 --> 01:04:21,680
Speaker 1: be the case. As we know, there are false race

1131
01:04:21,760 --> 01:04:24,800
Speaker 1: out there are false rape accusations that occur. This does happen,

1132
01:04:25,880 --> 01:04:30,360
Speaker 1: And now this makes it much more probable in my

1133
01:04:30,440 --> 01:04:33,440
Speaker 1: mind that you'll have an even more sort of gray

1134
01:04:33,520 --> 01:04:36,760
Speaker 1: area accusation download. I'm not talking about Harvey Weinstey. I'm

1135
01:04:36,760 --> 01:04:39,440
Speaker 1: talking with the precedent of the sets now where I

1136
01:04:39,480 --> 01:04:41,080
Speaker 1: don't know, what if what if a woman feels like

1137
01:04:41,080 --> 01:04:43,280
Speaker 1: she is scorned by an individual, what if a woman

1138
01:04:43,280 --> 01:04:45,400
Speaker 1: feels like, you know, oh, he went out and had

1139
01:04:45,440 --> 01:04:48,520
Speaker 1: an affair with the maid. You know, I'm going to

1140
01:04:48,600 --> 01:04:51,040
Speaker 1: say that ten years ago, that one time when we

1141
01:04:51,040 --> 01:04:52,560
Speaker 1: were both a little drunk and he thought it was

1142
01:04:52,600 --> 01:04:55,080
Speaker 1: all fun, that he actually raped me. You no longer

1143
01:04:55,080 --> 01:04:56,840
Speaker 1: would be able to say, but I mean, we've been

1144
01:04:56,960 --> 01:04:59,720
Speaker 1: in a relationship for ten years and you didn't seem

1145
01:04:59,760 --> 01:05:01,080
Speaker 1: to think that I was a rapist for any of

1146
01:05:01,080 --> 01:05:06,440
Speaker 1: those years. Right, that doesn't matter anymore. That's this is

1147
01:05:06,480 --> 01:05:09,120
Speaker 1: a new thing. And in an era where we're being

1148
01:05:09,120 --> 01:05:12,040
Speaker 1: told you have to get videotape consent. Oh no, even

1149
01:05:12,080 --> 01:05:14,160
Speaker 1: that's not enough, or you have to get you consent

1150
01:05:14,240 --> 01:05:16,600
Speaker 1: on an app. Oh that's not enough and where we're

1151
01:05:16,600 --> 01:05:18,720
Speaker 1: always told that you women must be believed, even though

1152
01:05:18,760 --> 01:05:20,560
Speaker 1: we know that there are some women who lie. In fact,

1153
01:05:20,760 --> 01:05:22,960
Speaker 1: lying about rape is much more common than lying about

1154
01:05:23,120 --> 01:05:25,800
Speaker 1: other felony crimes. Just a fact. And the statistics about

1155
01:05:25,840 --> 01:05:28,160
Speaker 1: ten percent, that means ninety percent of women who are

1156
01:05:28,160 --> 01:05:31,760
Speaker 1: sexually assaulted are telling the truth. So nine out of

1157
01:05:31,760 --> 01:05:33,600
Speaker 1: ten women, based on the numbers, aren't telling the truth.

1158
01:05:33,880 --> 01:05:37,200
Speaker 1: And those scummy guys should be thrown in prison for

1159
01:05:37,200 --> 01:05:41,480
Speaker 1: a very very long time. But there are going to

1160
01:05:41,520 --> 01:05:43,480
Speaker 1: be these other cases. There are going to be Kavanaughs,

1161
01:05:43,760 --> 01:05:46,840
Speaker 1: my friends. And you will see now that this has

1162
01:05:46,960 --> 01:05:49,760
Speaker 1: changed the standard by which a man's actions can be

1163
01:05:49,880 --> 01:05:52,720
Speaker 1: judged by a jury such that he will have to

1164
01:05:52,920 --> 01:05:55,720
Speaker 1: he will have to be able to do to prove

1165
01:05:56,200 --> 01:05:58,480
Speaker 1: that every act, every time over a long period with

1166
01:05:58,520 --> 01:06:00,680
Speaker 1: a woman when there was a lot of if there

1167
01:06:00,720 --> 01:06:03,560
Speaker 1: was one time where consent was in doubt, maybe he

1168
01:06:03,600 --> 01:06:05,600
Speaker 1: has to go to prison for a long time. That's

1169
01:06:05,600 --> 01:06:07,200
Speaker 1: a standard that we're going to go back and look

1170
01:06:07,200 --> 01:06:09,680
Speaker 1: at and say, how is this really workable in a

1171
01:06:09,680 --> 01:06:11,680
Speaker 1: criminal justice system in a way that's going to be fair.

1172
01:06:14,160 --> 01:06:18,160
Speaker 1: You're enough freedom, hud. This is the buck Sexton show podcast.

1173
01:06:21,720 --> 01:06:24,400
Speaker 1: I just wanted to follow up on my colleagues question

1174
01:06:24,400 --> 01:06:27,680
Speaker 1: about Russian interference. Can you pledge to the American people

1175
01:06:27,840 --> 01:06:31,120
Speaker 1: that you will not accept any foreign assistance in the

1176
01:06:31,200 --> 01:06:35,160
Speaker 1: upcoming election? And on this idea of a purge in

1177
01:06:35,200 --> 01:06:39,360
Speaker 1: your administration, there was recently the departure of your Acting

1178
01:06:39,440 --> 01:06:42,240
Speaker 1: d and I, Joseph McGuire. You replaced him with your

1179
01:06:42,280 --> 01:06:45,560
Speaker 1: Ambassador to Germany, Rick Ronell. Some of your critics have

1180
01:06:46,080 --> 01:06:51,120
Speaker 1: pointed out that Ambassador Barnell has no intelligence experience. How

1181
01:06:51,160 --> 01:06:53,720
Speaker 1: can you justify to the American people having an acting

1182
01:06:53,800 --> 01:06:57,000
Speaker 1: DNI with no intelligence Okay, prisoner, I want no help

1183
01:06:57,840 --> 01:07:01,440
Speaker 1: from any kind and I have been given help from

1184
01:07:01,600 --> 01:07:04,400
Speaker 1: any country. And if you see what you see, an

1185
01:07:04,480 --> 01:07:10,240
Speaker 1: endor wonderful network said. I guess they apologized in a

1186
01:07:10,280 --> 01:07:13,280
Speaker 1: way for didn't they apologize for the fact that they

1187
01:07:13,320 --> 01:07:16,360
Speaker 1: said different things that weren't chair. Tell me what was

1188
01:07:16,360 --> 01:07:19,120
Speaker 1: their apology yesterday? What did they say this President? I

1189
01:07:19,160 --> 01:07:22,160
Speaker 1: think our record on delivering the truth is a lot

1190
01:07:22,200 --> 01:07:25,160
Speaker 1: better than your Sometimes, let me tell you about your record.

1191
01:07:25,200 --> 01:07:27,000
Speaker 1: Your record is so bad you ought to be ashamed

1192
01:07:27,040 --> 01:07:29,280
Speaker 1: of yourself. Yeah. Probably, I'm not ashamed of anything. You

1193
01:07:29,360 --> 01:07:34,000
Speaker 1: probably the history of broadcasting. Love it. I'm gonna I'm

1194
01:07:34,000 --> 01:07:36,320
Speaker 1: gonna miss this man, I mean whatever. I think we

1195
01:07:36,400 --> 01:07:38,960
Speaker 1: got four more years of it, hopefully, but thank god,

1196
01:07:38,960 --> 01:07:42,160
Speaker 1: I mean Jimmy cause is a joke and a a

1197
01:07:42,400 --> 01:07:49,120
Speaker 1: complete and utter mockery of what journalism is allegedly supposed

1198
01:07:49,200 --> 01:07:54,160
Speaker 1: to be. Um, but here you have the usual you know,

1199
01:07:54,160 --> 01:07:56,520
Speaker 1: when did you stop eating your wife? Question from the media,

1200
01:07:56,680 --> 01:07:59,680
Speaker 1: Will you pledge now that you will not take foreign interference? Yeah,

1201
01:07:59,720 --> 01:08:02,720
Speaker 1: of course he's not gonna take foreign interference. It's it's

1202
01:08:02,760 --> 01:08:07,800
Speaker 1: such a dirty maneuver to even ask a president about

1203
01:08:07,840 --> 01:08:10,880
Speaker 1: this foreign interference wouldn't even help him. It's stupid. It's

1204
01:08:10,880 --> 01:08:14,720
Speaker 1: a dumb idea. Remember the president told me this himself.

1205
01:08:14,720 --> 01:08:16,040
Speaker 1: He's like, it doesn't even make any when I was

1206
01:08:16,040 --> 01:08:17,679
Speaker 1: sitting in the ople off as a president. Doesn't even

1207
01:08:17,680 --> 01:08:20,640
Speaker 1: make any sense. Well, what we we're gonna do? What

1208
01:08:22,000 --> 01:08:24,720
Speaker 1: we spread some memes on Facebook about Hillary and then

1209
01:08:24,760 --> 01:08:27,240
Speaker 1: possibly have all this you know, to think about all

1210
01:08:27,280 --> 01:08:29,439
Speaker 1: that's come from a special counsel and all this election

1211
01:08:29,560 --> 01:08:34,280
Speaker 1: stuff that's led nowhere because it was all based on lies.

1212
01:08:34,320 --> 01:08:38,000
Speaker 1: But imagine if it was based in the truth. So

1213
01:08:38,200 --> 01:08:40,800
Speaker 1: it's it's not even a good plan, But the people

1214
01:08:40,840 --> 01:08:42,639
Speaker 1: that have pushed this are still fixated on it because

1215
01:08:42,640 --> 01:08:44,040
Speaker 1: otherwise they have to look in the mirror and realize

1216
01:08:44,040 --> 01:08:46,799
Speaker 1: they are a bunch of dopes, a bunch of idiots,

1217
01:08:48,280 --> 01:08:50,000
Speaker 1: and they've done a lot of damage to the country

1218
01:08:50,080 --> 01:08:54,160
Speaker 1: as a result of this. The truth is that the

1219
01:08:54,240 --> 01:08:59,000
Speaker 1: likeliest place that you will see foreign interference, I'm sorry, interference,

1220
01:08:59,560 --> 01:09:03,640
Speaker 1: it is interference in our election comes from inside the

1221
01:09:03,640 --> 01:09:09,200
Speaker 1: intelligence community itself. Inside the intelligence community, you will see

1222
01:09:11,400 --> 01:09:16,320
Speaker 1: people who leak information. That's the entire latest round of

1223
01:09:16,520 --> 01:09:21,960
Speaker 1: Russia collusion insanity resulted really almost directly resulted directly from

1224
01:09:23,600 --> 01:09:26,040
Speaker 1: a briefing given to members of Congress, a whole bunch

1225
01:09:26,040 --> 01:09:29,479
Speaker 1: of them, by the intelligence community, in a way that

1226
01:09:29,640 --> 01:09:33,599
Speaker 1: if you were designing a meeting that you knew would

1227
01:09:33,600 --> 01:09:36,160
Speaker 1: have details that would leak, that's what it would be get.

1228
01:09:36,160 --> 01:09:38,120
Speaker 1: A whole bunch of members of Congress together put out

1229
01:09:38,120 --> 01:09:42,200
Speaker 1: the explosive allegation that Russia's still helping Trump and then, oh,

1230
01:09:42,200 --> 01:09:43,479
Speaker 1: there are so many people in the room. I don't

1231
01:09:43,479 --> 01:09:46,200
Speaker 1: know who told the press because it's classified, it's illegal

1232
01:09:46,280 --> 01:09:48,840
Speaker 1: to leak that information to the press. But guess what

1233
01:09:48,960 --> 01:09:53,280
Speaker 1: it leaked very quickly. There'll be more of this. You know,

1234
01:09:53,320 --> 01:09:58,160
Speaker 1: Marie Ivanovitch just got a seven figure book deal. Yeah,

1235
01:09:58,160 --> 01:10:00,280
Speaker 1: that's right. It's got over a million dollars to write

1236
01:10:00,280 --> 01:10:02,840
Speaker 1: a book. Book's gonna suck. No one's gonna read it.

1237
01:10:02,840 --> 01:10:06,160
Speaker 1: It's gonna be boring. That's not the point. It's a

1238
01:10:06,200 --> 01:10:09,320
Speaker 1: payoff for her being a good little soldier of the

1239
01:10:09,360 --> 01:10:12,679
Speaker 1: deep state against Trump. The left does this, they're far

1240
01:10:12,800 --> 01:10:14,360
Speaker 1: better at it than we are. We have you know,

1241
01:10:14,400 --> 01:10:16,920
Speaker 1: we got a handful of conservative billionaires. I love to

1242
01:10:16,960 --> 01:10:19,439
Speaker 1: write checks to like boring think tanks. They don't really

1243
01:10:19,439 --> 01:10:24,560
Speaker 1: do anything. We need to start having outlets and platforms

1244
01:10:24,560 --> 01:10:28,960
Speaker 1: for people who are soldiers for conservatism where you can

1245
01:10:29,040 --> 01:10:31,160
Speaker 1: go well, where you'll be taking care of you know,

1246
01:10:31,200 --> 01:10:34,519
Speaker 1: we need publishing imprints. We need these things because we're

1247
01:10:34,520 --> 01:10:37,479
Speaker 1: at a huge disadvantage in the information war against the

1248
01:10:37,520 --> 01:10:40,439
Speaker 1: left when they know that if you stand up against

1249
01:10:40,479 --> 01:10:42,280
Speaker 1: Trump and you get fired, doesn't matter what you do,

1250
01:10:42,360 --> 01:10:44,880
Speaker 1: doesn't matter. As long as you were standing up against Trump,

1251
01:10:45,040 --> 01:10:48,479
Speaker 1: you're gonna get a book deal, speaking, circuit board seat,

1252
01:10:48,600 --> 01:10:51,400
Speaker 1: all all this great stuff. Because the left takes care

1253
01:10:51,400 --> 01:10:53,760
Speaker 1: of their soldiers on the right, We're like, yeah, you know,

1254
01:10:53,920 --> 01:10:56,679
Speaker 1: go start a business, find a job. Sorry, your career's ruined.

1255
01:10:57,280 --> 01:11:00,719
Speaker 1: Thanks for listening to the Bus Sesson Show podcast. Remember

1256
01:11:00,760 --> 01:11:04,559
Speaker 1: to subscribe on Apple podcasts, the iHeartRadio app, or wherever

1257
01:11:04,640 --> 01:11:08,280
Speaker 1: you get your podcasts. Why does your current climate chame

1258
01:11:08,360 --> 01:11:12,000
Speaker 1: proposal involved phasing out nuclear energy when it currently accounts

1259
01:11:12,000 --> 01:11:14,880
Speaker 1: for twenty percent of all US energy and fifty percent

1260
01:11:15,000 --> 01:11:18,120
Speaker 1: of our carbon free energy. Okay, all right? And the

1261
01:11:18,160 --> 01:11:23,479
Speaker 1: answer is that right now, we do not know how

1262
01:11:23,479 --> 01:11:27,760
Speaker 1: to get rid of the nuclear waste that is out there,

1263
01:11:28,520 --> 01:11:30,639
Speaker 1: waste that is going to be around for a very

1264
01:11:30,760 --> 01:11:34,120
Speaker 1: very very long time. As you know, the Congress thought

1265
01:11:34,120 --> 01:11:37,120
Speaker 1: about yucka Mountain and Nevada. I don't believe that that

1266
01:11:37,240 --> 01:11:39,120
Speaker 1: is going to happen. So right now, all over the country,

1267
01:11:39,160 --> 01:11:42,600
Speaker 1: including my own state of Vermont, we have nuclear waste

1268
01:11:43,360 --> 01:11:45,559
Speaker 1: alongside a plant that has since been shut down right

1269
01:11:45,600 --> 01:11:47,800
Speaker 1: wide the Connecticut River not a good place for it.

1270
01:11:47,920 --> 01:11:50,439
Speaker 1: And all over this country you have nuclear waste which

1271
01:11:50,520 --> 01:11:54,120
Speaker 1: is stored in ways in places that are not particularly safe.

1272
01:11:54,320 --> 01:11:57,879
Speaker 1: So I don't know how we can build more nuclear

1273
01:11:57,960 --> 01:12:00,080
Speaker 1: plants when we don't know how to get rid of

1274
01:12:00,120 --> 01:12:03,080
Speaker 1: the waste that we have. Second of all, in terms

1275
01:12:03,120 --> 01:12:06,400
Speaker 1: of the construction of new nuclear plants. You may or

1276
01:12:06,400 --> 01:12:09,320
Speaker 1: may not know that they all fall fall far more

1277
01:12:09,439 --> 01:12:15,679
Speaker 1: expensive than investing in wind, solar and other sustainable energies.

1278
01:12:16,040 --> 01:12:17,400
Speaker 1: I just wanted to play this for you as a

1279
01:12:17,439 --> 01:12:20,639
Speaker 1: reminder that what I'm telling you about Bernie Sanders is true.

1280
01:12:20,640 --> 01:12:24,600
Speaker 1: He's not very smart, doesn't know very much, doesn't have

1281
01:12:24,600 --> 01:12:27,360
Speaker 1: a lot of knowledge about anything. He's just a demagogue.

1282
01:12:27,920 --> 01:12:31,559
Speaker 1: He spouts the same nonsense you'd hear from any self

1283
01:12:31,560 --> 01:12:35,320
Speaker 1: described Marxist professor at any third tier college in the country.

1284
01:12:35,600 --> 01:12:38,320
Speaker 1: It's just that he happens to be in the right

1285
01:12:38,360 --> 01:12:42,640
Speaker 1: place at the right time now for the rise in

1286
01:12:42,720 --> 01:12:45,720
Speaker 1: socialist sentiment the Democratic Party. But he's not particularly good

1287
01:12:45,720 --> 01:12:49,600
Speaker 1: at this. He doesn't have some special skill, and I

1288
01:12:49,640 --> 01:12:54,960
Speaker 1: think it's important that everybody remembers that Bernie Sanders isn't

1289
01:12:54,960 --> 01:12:56,800
Speaker 1: a guy that you would turn to even to give

1290
01:12:56,800 --> 01:13:00,560
Speaker 1: you a good explanation of many of the policies that

1291
01:13:00,600 --> 01:13:04,680
Speaker 1: he now advocates for. Nuclear power is something that the

1292
01:13:04,720 --> 01:13:06,720
Speaker 1: left gets very touchy about because they used to be

1293
01:13:06,800 --> 01:13:09,760
Speaker 1: obsessed with how nuclear power was something that had to

1294
01:13:09,800 --> 01:13:13,120
Speaker 1: be opposed on environmental grounds. It's particularly true the anti

1295
01:13:13,200 --> 01:13:16,120
Speaker 1: nuclear power movement in the nineteen seventies. It actually led

1296
01:13:16,200 --> 01:13:18,559
Speaker 1: to the beginning of what we now call the Black

1297
01:13:18,560 --> 01:13:22,200
Speaker 1: Block movement. There were these black block protests about nuclear

1298
01:13:22,240 --> 01:13:27,120
Speaker 1: power in Germany in the seventies, and then you had

1299
01:13:27,120 --> 01:13:29,840
Speaker 1: all these environmentalists that latched onto the stories about how

1300
01:13:30,439 --> 01:13:33,479
Speaker 1: nuclear power of nuclear meltdowns would happen, what we're going

1301
01:13:33,520 --> 01:13:35,679
Speaker 1: to do at the waste. It turns out that nuclear

1302
01:13:35,680 --> 01:13:39,040
Speaker 1: power is the safest, cleanest, best option for having the

1303
01:13:39,040 --> 01:13:42,920
Speaker 1: advanced economies we want to have and does not have

1304
01:13:42,960 --> 01:13:46,360
Speaker 1: the CO two emissions that other power has. But then

1305
01:13:46,360 --> 01:13:51,080
Speaker 1: I want that. They want wind, they want renewable, and

1306
01:13:51,320 --> 01:13:54,479
Speaker 1: it's not efficient. Solar and wind are not going to

1307
01:13:54,520 --> 01:13:57,559
Speaker 1: power the economy that we want to be living in.

1308
01:13:58,640 --> 01:14:02,120
Speaker 1: But it's just also reminded me of this is one

1309
01:14:02,120 --> 01:14:05,640
Speaker 1: of my favorites is you know, I hate recycling. I

1310
01:14:05,760 --> 01:14:08,880
Speaker 1: find it to be a little taste of tyranny every day.

1311
01:14:09,160 --> 01:14:14,080
Speaker 1: It's it's incredibly stupid. Recycling is not good for the environment.

1312
01:14:14,120 --> 01:14:17,880
Speaker 1: They when they look at this, honestly, it is very

1313
01:14:17,920 --> 01:14:23,160
Speaker 1: difficult to reprocess and clean products. To you know that

1314
01:14:23,160 --> 01:14:26,120
Speaker 1: that you are recycling and put them back into it's

1315
01:14:26,280 --> 01:14:28,360
Speaker 1: very bad This is not a good This is not

1316
01:14:28,400 --> 01:14:30,960
Speaker 1: a good thing, and in fact, a lot of what

1317
01:14:31,080 --> 01:14:33,320
Speaker 1: ends up happening, especially with plastics, when you think you're

1318
01:14:33,320 --> 01:14:37,400
Speaker 1: recycling plastics, we just ship our plastic to third world

1319
01:14:37,400 --> 01:14:40,160
Speaker 1: countries like China. I mean not China's not a third

1320
01:14:40,160 --> 01:14:42,120
Speaker 1: world country really, but we shipped them to third world

1321
01:14:42,120 --> 01:14:44,719
Speaker 1: countries and places like China. But they don't care about

1322
01:14:44,720 --> 01:14:46,280
Speaker 1: where the plastic ends up, and that's how it gets

1323
01:14:46,320 --> 01:14:48,519
Speaker 1: back into the ocean. So we think we're recycling, we

1324
01:14:48,600 --> 01:14:51,720
Speaker 1: really just send it to these other places. And there's

1325
01:14:51,720 --> 01:14:53,599
Speaker 1: a story over the weekend about how when they look

1326
01:14:53,600 --> 01:14:56,759
Speaker 1: at really what goes on with plastic bag bands, which

1327
01:14:56,920 --> 01:14:59,880
Speaker 1: drive me insane. I mean, producer, Mark, have you have

1328
01:14:59,920 --> 01:15:02,960
Speaker 1: you had the experience yet of overloading a paper bag

1329
01:15:03,280 --> 01:15:05,040
Speaker 1: trying to get into the car and into the bottom

1330
01:15:05,080 --> 01:15:07,160
Speaker 1: just falls out. Now you feel like you look at

1331
01:15:07,200 --> 01:15:09,240
Speaker 1: an idiot, even though it's not your fault, and you're like,

1332
01:15:09,240 --> 01:15:11,240
Speaker 1: why can't I just have a plastic bag? You know

1333
01:15:11,280 --> 01:15:13,559
Speaker 1: that's happening March first in all of New York, right,

1334
01:15:15,720 --> 01:15:18,240
Speaker 1: I know, Yeah, this is why I'm talking about it

1335
01:15:18,320 --> 01:15:21,240
Speaker 1: right now. Okay, that's just no no, but I understand,

1336
01:15:21,360 --> 01:15:24,559
Speaker 1: But I'm just channeling my frustration here, buy some reusable bags.

1337
01:15:24,920 --> 01:15:32,000
Speaker 1: At how unbelievably stupid this is going to be. It's

1338
01:15:32,479 --> 01:15:38,479
Speaker 1: let me explain why it turns out. It turns out

1339
01:15:38,479 --> 01:15:46,639
Speaker 1: that plastic bags are incredibly lightweight, versatile, reusable, and when

1340
01:15:46,680 --> 01:15:50,040
Speaker 1: you look at the transportation cost and the environmental cost

1341
01:15:50,080 --> 01:15:53,759
Speaker 1: of paper bags, for example, there is very clear evidence

1342
01:15:53,760 --> 01:15:57,800
Speaker 1: that they are in fact worse for the environment. Here's

1343
01:15:57,800 --> 01:15:59,519
Speaker 1: a piece in the Wall Street Journal just a couple

1344
01:15:59,600 --> 01:16:03,759
Speaker 1: days ago. Why do politicians want to take our plastic

1345
01:16:03,800 --> 01:16:09,880
Speaker 1: bags and straws away? This moral panic is intensifying, even

1346
01:16:09,880 --> 01:16:12,360
Speaker 1: as evidence mounts that banning plastic is both a waste

1347
01:16:12,360 --> 01:16:15,800
Speaker 1: of money and harmful to the environment. If you want

1348
01:16:15,800 --> 01:16:18,960
Speaker 1: to protect dolphins and sea turtles, you should take special

1349
01:16:19,000 --> 01:16:22,800
Speaker 1: care to place your plastic plastic in the trash, not

1350
01:16:22,880 --> 01:16:27,000
Speaker 1: the recycling bin. During the nineteen seventies, environmentalists wanted to

1351
01:16:27,000 --> 01:16:29,640
Speaker 1: restrict the use of plastic because it was made from petroleum.

1352
01:16:30,120 --> 01:16:33,559
Speaker 1: When the energy crisis abated, they denounced plastic for not

1353
01:16:33,680 --> 01:16:37,919
Speaker 1: being biodegradable in landfills. They blamed it for littering the landscape,

1354
01:16:37,960 --> 01:16:41,639
Speaker 1: clogging sewer drains. In global warming, plastic from our throwaway

1355
01:16:41,680 --> 01:16:45,320
Speaker 1: society was killing vast numbers creatures, according to a twenty

1356
01:16:45,360 --> 01:16:49,720
Speaker 1: seventeen BBC documentary series. The series prompted Queen Elizabeth a

1357
01:16:49,760 --> 01:16:52,920
Speaker 1: Second to ban plastic straws and bottles from the Royal Estates,

1358
01:16:53,240 --> 01:16:56,280
Speaker 1: and it galvanize so many other leaders that Greens celebrate

1359
01:16:56,280 --> 01:16:59,960
Speaker 1: what they call the Blue Planet effect, named for the series.

1360
01:17:01,479 --> 01:17:05,280
Speaker 1: More than one hundred countries now restrict single use plastic bags,

1361
01:17:05,320 --> 01:17:08,600
Speaker 1: and Pope Frances has called for global regulation of plastic.

1362
01:17:10,000 --> 01:17:16,479
Speaker 1: Popular misconceptions have sustained the plastic panic. Environmentalist frequently claimed

1363
01:17:16,479 --> 01:17:18,519
Speaker 1: that eighty percent of plastic in the oceans come from

1364
01:17:18,600 --> 01:17:21,559
Speaker 1: land based sources, but a team of scientists from four

1365
01:17:21,600 --> 01:17:24,840
Speaker 1: continents reported in twenty eighteen that more than half of

1366
01:17:24,880 --> 01:17:28,559
Speaker 1: plastic in the Great Pacific garbage Patch comes from fishing boats,

1367
01:17:29,200 --> 01:17:34,280
Speaker 1: mostly discarded nets and other gear. More than eighty percent

1368
01:17:34,320 --> 01:17:36,280
Speaker 1: of the plastic bottles that wash up on the shores

1369
01:17:36,920 --> 01:17:40,120
Speaker 1: of inaccessible island and uninhabited extinct volcano in the South

1370
01:17:40,160 --> 01:17:44,839
Speaker 1: Atlantic originated in China. Of the plastic carried into oceans

1371
01:17:44,840 --> 01:17:48,879
Speaker 1: by rivers, a twenty seventeen study in Nature Communications estimated

1372
01:17:49,000 --> 01:17:52,600
Speaker 1: eighty six percent comes from Asia and virtually all the

1373
01:17:52,640 --> 01:17:56,920
Speaker 1: rest from Africa and South America. Some plastic in America

1374
01:17:57,000 --> 01:18:00,400
Speaker 1: is littered on beaches and streets, but researchers have found

1375
01:18:00,400 --> 01:18:03,559
Speaker 1: that laws restricting plastic bags have do not reduce litter.

1376
01:18:04,520 --> 01:18:07,479
Speaker 1: The resources wasted on these anti plastic campaigns, we better

1377
01:18:07,520 --> 01:18:12,760
Speaker 1: spent on programs to discourage all kinds of littering. I mean,

1378
01:18:12,840 --> 01:18:15,400
Speaker 1: it just goes on, It goes on and on. It's

1379
01:18:15,400 --> 01:18:17,360
Speaker 1: just a horrible idea. It's stupid. I mean, I've been

1380
01:18:17,360 --> 01:18:18,960
Speaker 1: dealing with it whenever I go to California. I'll be

1381
01:18:18,960 --> 01:18:23,240
Speaker 1: in California this weekend. It's so dumb and yet people

1382
01:18:23,479 --> 01:18:25,439
Speaker 1: it's just virtue signaling. It takes over this part of

1383
01:18:25,479 --> 01:18:29,240
Speaker 1: the brain. People can't think for themselves anymore. They're incapable

1384
01:18:29,240 --> 01:18:31,559
Speaker 1: of looking at what's really going on. Instead, they replaced

1385
01:18:31,600 --> 01:18:33,400
Speaker 1: it with what they wish was going on because it

1386
01:18:33,400 --> 01:18:37,920
Speaker 1: makes them feel good. This piece continues quote Single use

1387
01:18:37,960 --> 01:18:40,520
Speaker 1: plastic bags aren't the worst environmental choice of the supermarket.

1388
01:18:40,560 --> 01:18:44,639
Speaker 1: They're the best. High density polyethylene bags are a marvel

1389
01:18:44,640 --> 01:18:48,680
Speaker 1: of economic engineering and environmental efficiency. They're cheap, convenient, waterproof,

1390
01:18:48,960 --> 01:18:51,360
Speaker 1: strong enough to hold groceries, but thin and light enough

1391
01:18:51,360 --> 01:18:54,840
Speaker 1: to make and make and transport using scan energy, water,

1392
01:18:55,000 --> 01:18:58,559
Speaker 1: or other resources. Though they're called single use, most people

1393
01:18:58,560 --> 01:19:00,840
Speaker 1: reuse them, often as trash can liners. I do that

1394
01:19:02,000 --> 01:19:05,519
Speaker 1: when governments banned them, Consumers buy thicker substitutes with a

1395
01:19:05,560 --> 01:19:08,599
Speaker 1: bigger carbon footprint once discarded that take up a little

1396
01:19:08,640 --> 01:19:12,320
Speaker 1: room in landfills. That they aren't biodegradable is a plus

1397
01:19:12,400 --> 01:19:15,680
Speaker 1: because they don't release greenhouse gases like decomposing paper and

1398
01:19:15,760 --> 01:19:19,679
Speaker 1: cotton bags. The plastic bags, tiny quantity of carbon extracted

1399
01:19:19,720 --> 01:19:23,200
Speaker 1: from natural gas goes back underground where it can be

1400
01:19:23,280 --> 01:19:26,599
Speaker 1: safely sequestered from the atmosphere and ocean in a modern

1401
01:19:26,720 --> 01:19:30,960
Speaker 1: landfill with sturdy lining. Plastic I mean plastic bands are

1402
01:19:31,000 --> 01:19:35,559
Speaker 1: a modern version of medieval sumptuary laws, which forbade merchants

1403
01:19:35,560 --> 01:19:38,240
Speaker 1: and other commoners from wearing clothes or using products that

1404
01:19:38,280 --> 01:19:42,519
Speaker 1: offended the sensibilities of aristocrats and clergyman. Green activists have

1405
01:19:42,560 --> 01:19:45,519
Speaker 1: the power to impose their preferences now that environmentalism is

1406
01:19:45,600 --> 01:19:49,360
Speaker 1: essentially the state, religion and progressive strongholds. This is by

1407
01:19:49,400 --> 01:19:52,360
Speaker 1: this guy Tyranny, who's the editor of City Journal for

1408
01:19:52,479 --> 01:19:55,320
Speaker 1: the Wall Street Journal. We're gonna we have a plastic

1409
01:19:55,320 --> 01:20:01,840
Speaker 1: band coming into effecture in New York City. The uh,

1410
01:20:02,840 --> 01:20:09,759
Speaker 1: these different progressive strongholds, you cannot penetrate their environmentalist nonsense

1411
01:20:09,800 --> 01:20:12,240
Speaker 1: with reality. But you know what's worse than the bags?

1412
01:20:12,439 --> 01:20:17,200
Speaker 1: What the straws? Oh, the straws. Paper straws are disgusting.

1413
01:20:17,280 --> 01:20:19,439
Speaker 1: I actually prefer reusual banks as they hold more and

1414
01:20:19,439 --> 01:20:21,160
Speaker 1: I don't have to carry as many bags. That's not

1415
01:20:21,200 --> 01:20:23,360
Speaker 1: been an environmental thing. Yeah, but you got to carry

1416
01:20:23,400 --> 01:20:24,840
Speaker 1: it with differings, which you know, sometimes you want to

1417
01:20:24,840 --> 01:20:26,360
Speaker 1: go to the store, you don't have a bag on you,

1418
01:20:26,360 --> 01:20:28,479
Speaker 1: you don't have a car, so yeah, exactly, it's a

1419
01:20:28,479 --> 01:20:30,639
Speaker 1: different deal. But the straws, if somebody puts a paper

1420
01:20:30,680 --> 01:20:32,040
Speaker 1: straw on my drink, I'm done. I don't go to

1421
01:20:32,160 --> 01:20:34,439
Speaker 1: at least I'm right. Yeah. But the thing is they're

1422
01:20:34,479 --> 01:20:37,559
Speaker 1: doing this and they're not. It doesn't even do what

1423
01:20:37,600 --> 01:20:39,080
Speaker 1: they think it's going to do. All it does is

1424
01:20:39,120 --> 01:20:43,160
Speaker 1: annoy everybody. Yes, this is like the the liberal mentality

1425
01:20:43,240 --> 01:20:45,559
Speaker 1: is now. If it makes them feel good to annoy

1426
01:20:45,640 --> 01:20:48,559
Speaker 1: you and has no other purpose, they will use state

1427
01:20:48,600 --> 01:20:52,639
Speaker 1: power and coercion to do That drives me insane. Yeah,

1428
01:20:52,800 --> 01:20:56,960
Speaker 1: plastic band bags to be banned in New York second

1429
01:20:56,960 --> 01:21:03,640
Speaker 1: statewide band. I mean, this is this is idiocy, idiocy.

1430
01:21:04,040 --> 01:21:06,880
Speaker 1: You know, recycling has dumb all this stuff. You know,

1431
01:21:06,920 --> 01:21:10,120
Speaker 1: you want people to not litter, which, by the way,

1432
01:21:10,120 --> 01:21:12,720
Speaker 1: there's some cultural things about littering, like some cultures are

1433
01:21:12,720 --> 01:21:15,080
Speaker 1: more likely to litter, they litter a lot, and others don't.

1434
01:21:15,120 --> 01:21:18,280
Speaker 1: And you know that's you go to more developed countries

1435
01:21:18,360 --> 01:21:20,200
Speaker 1: and there's a lot less littering. I mean, there's a

1436
01:21:20,200 --> 01:21:23,800
Speaker 1: whole the way. If you want to know how economically

1437
01:21:23,840 --> 01:21:25,880
Speaker 1: developed a country as, all you have to do is

1438
01:21:25,880 --> 01:21:28,360
Speaker 1: see how they handle their trash. And you pretty much know.

1439
01:21:29,360 --> 01:21:31,519
Speaker 1: If you know how they handle refuse, you you know

1440
01:21:31,760 --> 01:21:35,280
Speaker 1: how advanced the country is. You know, you're not going

1441
01:21:35,360 --> 01:21:38,679
Speaker 1: to see a lot of trash all over the streets

1442
01:21:38,680 --> 01:21:41,600
Speaker 1: of Tokyo, even though it's an incredibly dense urban area.

1443
01:21:42,080 --> 01:21:45,679
Speaker 1: You will see a lot of trash in other parts

1444
01:21:45,680 --> 01:21:48,840
Speaker 1: of the world where median wages are far lower and

1445
01:21:48,840 --> 01:21:52,200
Speaker 1: there's far less economic development. You know, in the Middle

1446
01:21:52,240 --> 01:21:55,080
Speaker 1: East and some some of those cities, you'll see trash

1447
01:21:55,120 --> 01:21:56,479
Speaker 1: all over them. And you go to some parts of

1448
01:21:56,560 --> 01:22:01,160
Speaker 1: Cairo's trash everywhere. So I mean, just for an example here,

1449
01:22:01,400 --> 01:22:05,160
Speaker 1: I'm annoyed to see that New York is going to

1450
01:22:05,160 --> 01:22:08,200
Speaker 1: be following California's footsteps. But you know, maybe New Yorkers

1451
01:22:08,240 --> 01:22:10,200
Speaker 1: just have to get some good doses of liberalism to

1452
01:22:10,280 --> 01:22:14,120
Speaker 1: wake up. I don't know, though, then we never learned

1453
01:22:14,120 --> 01:22:15,720
Speaker 1: a lesson here. I mean, those of you that don't

1454
01:22:15,760 --> 01:22:19,680
Speaker 1: live in progressive strongholds, you're so lucky because by the

1455
01:22:19,720 --> 01:22:22,679
Speaker 1: time it's clear that the policies they are implementing are

1456
01:22:22,720 --> 01:22:25,600
Speaker 1: bad and are damaging, it's too late. And you know,

1457
01:22:25,600 --> 01:22:27,680
Speaker 1: people have already fled, and I mean New York is

1458
01:22:27,960 --> 01:22:30,080
Speaker 1: hemorrhaging people to Florida right now, just because of the

1459
01:22:30,200 --> 01:22:35,360
Speaker 1: changes in the taxes. The plastic bag plastic bag, sorry

1460
01:22:35,840 --> 01:22:40,280
Speaker 1: New York plastic bag banit. Go out Hangle, produce a

1461
01:22:40,360 --> 01:22:44,799
Speaker 1: mok and run Konkoma patch jog one of those places,

1462
01:22:44,840 --> 01:22:46,760
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? What is your what is

1463
01:22:46,760 --> 01:22:50,559
Speaker 1: the favorite of the South Shore destinations in general? Yeah?

1464
01:22:50,640 --> 01:22:52,760
Speaker 1: I mean Long Beach because I live there and there's

1465
01:22:52,760 --> 01:22:55,400
Speaker 1: a beach that sounds nice. Yeah. Yeah, there's no beach

1466
01:22:55,439 --> 01:22:57,120
Speaker 1: and run Konkoma, right. I'd just like to say that

1467
01:22:57,320 --> 01:23:01,760
Speaker 1: there might be one. Is there one about Jericho? No,

1468
01:23:01,800 --> 01:23:04,680
Speaker 1: there's no beach. There no beach in Jericho, right, yeah,

1469
01:23:04,680 --> 01:23:07,360
Speaker 1: like Jericho of all the fun ones. Yeah, I don't know,

1470
01:23:07,680 --> 01:23:09,160
Speaker 1: it's very long. I'm trying to think of the most

1471
01:23:09,160 --> 01:23:11,400
Speaker 1: long island long island place. Jericho has got to be

1472
01:23:11,479 --> 01:23:16,439
Speaker 1: high on the list. I don't know. Ronkonkom is up there. Babylon. Oh,

1473
01:23:16,479 --> 01:23:18,040
Speaker 1: I guess that people will come visit the city on

1474
01:23:18,040 --> 01:23:19,719
Speaker 1: the weekends when I was in high school from Babylon,

1475
01:23:19,880 --> 01:23:22,080
Speaker 1: where I was like, ah, yes, the Babylon crew is here.

1476
01:23:22,360 --> 01:23:25,320
Speaker 1: You're just naming routes on the Long Island railroad, right, Yeah,

1477
01:23:25,320 --> 01:23:27,040
Speaker 1: but this is very we refer to this as bridge

1478
01:23:27,040 --> 01:23:29,200
Speaker 1: and tunnel. Back in the day, people coming in the

1479
01:23:29,200 --> 01:23:32,519
Speaker 1: city from outside of the Five Boroughs and Babylon were

1480
01:23:32,520 --> 01:23:34,439
Speaker 1: frequent frequent visitors. Yeah, and this is long. That's why

1481
01:23:34,479 --> 01:23:36,240
Speaker 1: I know them from taking the train. Now. So the

1482
01:23:36,880 --> 01:23:39,639
Speaker 1: out east, as they say, out east where there's such

1483
01:23:39,640 --> 01:23:42,360
Speaker 1: a Manhattan, Yeah, such a that's a very Manhattan thing

1484
01:23:42,360 --> 01:23:45,080
Speaker 1: going out east. Me out east is like Montauk or

1485
01:23:45,160 --> 01:23:47,080
Speaker 1: like all the way on the end of Montalk's great.

1486
01:23:47,120 --> 01:23:50,200
Speaker 1: Montalk's very trendy. Now though you probably Wine country of course. Yeah,

1487
01:23:50,520 --> 01:23:53,760
Speaker 1: north shore of Long Islands very nice. So anyway, man,

1488
01:23:53,800 --> 01:23:55,320
Speaker 1: they're gonna have a plastic band here and it's on

1489
01:23:55,479 --> 01:23:57,200
Speaker 1: Long Island's gonna be affected by This is why I'm

1490
01:23:57,200 --> 01:23:58,840
Speaker 1: thinking about. I mean, every all over New York State

1491
01:23:58,880 --> 01:24:01,280
Speaker 1: we have this plastic bag and in effect, it's stupid.

1492
01:24:01,560 --> 01:24:04,360
Speaker 1: It's kind of productive, but the libs don't care. If

1493
01:24:04,360 --> 01:24:06,600
Speaker 1: it makes them feel good, they will ram their stupidity

1494
01:24:06,600 --> 01:24:09,280
Speaker 1: down your throat and do it with a paper straw

1495
01:24:09,520 --> 01:24:12,080
Speaker 1: that disintegrates within like two minutes of being in your drink.

1496
01:24:14,360 --> 01:24:17,360
Speaker 1: You're in the Freedom Hunt. This is the Buck Sexton

1497
01:24:17,439 --> 01:24:24,000
Speaker 1: Show podcast. I haven't talked too much about coronavirus today

1498
01:24:24,680 --> 01:24:28,200
Speaker 1: I've seen now we've got eighty thousand confirmed cases. Stock

1499
01:24:28,240 --> 01:24:30,439
Speaker 1: market did not have some huge rebound today after a

1500
01:24:30,479 --> 01:24:33,519
Speaker 1: three percent drop in the what was the SNP yesterday?

1501
01:24:34,800 --> 01:24:41,280
Speaker 1: So it's it's concerning and there are gonna be there's

1502
01:24:41,360 --> 01:24:43,640
Speaker 1: now I think a consensus emerging that it is going

1503
01:24:43,720 --> 01:24:48,360
Speaker 1: to hit the United States, but we have an advanced

1504
01:24:48,360 --> 01:24:52,680
Speaker 1: health system. The fatality rate is two percent, which is

1505
01:24:52,720 --> 01:24:56,479
Speaker 1: a lot higher than the flu. The flu is something

1506
01:24:56,520 --> 01:25:00,880
Speaker 1: like point zero one percent. But we are going to

1507
01:25:00,920 --> 01:25:03,800
Speaker 1: get hit with coronavirus. I don't know. There's something I

1508
01:25:03,840 --> 01:25:07,320
Speaker 1: don't have. This isn't a completely formulated theory yet, but

1509
01:25:07,600 --> 01:25:10,120
Speaker 1: I'm getting it, just getting a feeling. You know, you

1510
01:25:10,160 --> 01:25:12,680
Speaker 1: have this rise of socialism in Sanders and now you've

1511
01:25:12,680 --> 01:25:18,120
Speaker 1: got this coronavirus something something's going to happen here, meaning

1512
01:25:18,160 --> 01:25:20,920
Speaker 1: that there's going to be some big change in our

1513
01:25:20,960 --> 01:25:24,639
Speaker 1: perception of what's going on in the country. And I'm

1514
01:25:24,680 --> 01:25:27,439
Speaker 1: a little worried about how this could how this could

1515
01:25:27,479 --> 01:25:31,600
Speaker 1: evolve to help the Democrats in the fall, you know,

1516
01:25:31,600 --> 01:25:34,120
Speaker 1: the economy might hit a real slowdown, and all of

1517
01:25:34,160 --> 01:25:36,200
Speaker 1: a sudden we start hearing about how Trump isn't such

1518
01:25:36,200 --> 01:25:38,600
Speaker 1: a good Stuarty. Even though it'll be the result of

1519
01:25:38,640 --> 01:25:40,680
Speaker 1: a it looks like it would be the result of

1520
01:25:40,680 --> 01:25:44,240
Speaker 1: a disease of a virus that is spreading all over

1521
01:25:44,240 --> 01:25:48,360
Speaker 1: the world. This is where I start to say, this

1522
01:25:48,400 --> 01:25:50,719
Speaker 1: is where you start to feel like there's a fat

1523
01:25:50,760 --> 01:25:52,760
Speaker 1: tail incident, which is one way referring to or a

1524
01:25:52,760 --> 01:25:56,920
Speaker 1: black swan incident, where that's the low probability, high impact

1525
01:25:56,920 --> 01:26:00,640
Speaker 1: scenario that to me seems like it's possible. Now that

1526
01:26:00,680 --> 01:26:04,439
Speaker 1: we're entering this phase of what's going to be a

1527
01:26:05,360 --> 01:26:07,160
Speaker 1: it is going to be a global pandemic, and it

1528
01:26:07,200 --> 01:26:09,160
Speaker 1: has already killed a lot more people than stars did.

1529
01:26:10,360 --> 01:26:15,479
Speaker 1: It's the incubation rates on coronavirus. I don't have a

1530
01:26:15,520 --> 01:26:17,080
Speaker 1: lot of good news here on this right now. I

1531
01:26:17,080 --> 01:26:19,880
Speaker 1: don't have good news to share. The incubation rates on

1532
01:26:19,920 --> 01:26:22,120
Speaker 1: it are longer than thought. There's some people that are

1533
01:26:22,200 --> 01:26:25,720
Speaker 1: going now for almost thirty days before they show symptoms,

1534
01:26:26,000 --> 01:26:30,120
Speaker 1: which means that during that period you are still possibly contagious,

1535
01:26:30,160 --> 01:26:31,720
Speaker 1: so you don't know you you know, you could not

1536
01:26:31,800 --> 01:26:36,200
Speaker 1: know that you have coronavirus and be spreading it to

1537
01:26:36,280 --> 01:26:39,040
Speaker 1: people and it won't be until two or three weeks

1538
01:26:39,080 --> 01:26:43,400
Speaker 1: goes by before you start to actually show symptoms. There

1539
01:26:43,400 --> 01:26:46,720
Speaker 1: are much more dangerous strains of virus out there. They're

1540
01:26:46,800 --> 01:26:50,280
Speaker 1: much more dangerous influenza influenzas, for example, to have really

1541
01:26:50,360 --> 01:26:52,880
Speaker 1: high fatality rates. But the thing about those influences is

1542
01:26:52,920 --> 01:26:55,640
Speaker 1: that they tend not to be easily spread because the

1543
01:26:55,800 --> 01:27:00,000
Speaker 1: symptoms set on very quickly and people are not interacting

1544
01:27:00,200 --> 01:27:02,320
Speaker 1: with a lot of other people and basically fighting for

1545
01:27:02,360 --> 01:27:06,360
Speaker 1: their own fighting for their own lives very quickly. The

1546
01:27:06,479 --> 01:27:10,360
Speaker 1: way that coronavirus incubates and the way that it is

1547
01:27:10,400 --> 01:27:14,320
Speaker 1: spread means that the likelihood of this thing becoming a

1548
01:27:14,560 --> 01:27:17,880
Speaker 1: disease that we all have to be at least aware of,

1549
01:27:18,000 --> 01:27:19,960
Speaker 1: even in this country, I think it is very very high.

1550
01:27:20,200 --> 01:27:21,720
Speaker 1: I will also say, though, I remember I was in

1551
01:27:21,760 --> 01:27:25,840
Speaker 1: Puerto Rico when Zico was considered a huge concern and

1552
01:27:25,880 --> 01:27:27,800
Speaker 1: there were these maps the CDC put out about how

1553
01:27:27,840 --> 01:27:30,519
Speaker 1: zeco was going to spread everywhere, and it was, you know,

1554
01:27:30,600 --> 01:27:33,640
Speaker 1: going to be and if pregnant women were terrified of it,

1555
01:27:33,680 --> 01:27:35,200
Speaker 1: and all this stuff. Now you don't hear, you don't

1556
01:27:35,200 --> 01:27:37,720
Speaker 1: even hear about zeke anymore. I remember I read a

1557
01:27:37,760 --> 01:27:40,800
Speaker 1: CDC analysis before I went to Puerto Rico. When I

1558
01:27:40,840 --> 01:27:42,360
Speaker 1: was there, Puerto Rico is one of the one of

1559
01:27:42,360 --> 01:27:45,439
Speaker 1: the islands that was worst hit by it. That up

1560
01:27:45,479 --> 01:27:47,839
Speaker 1: to fifty percent of the Caribbean and like the northern

1561
01:27:47,840 --> 01:27:50,080
Speaker 1: half of South America and a big chunk of the

1562
01:27:50,080 --> 01:27:53,160
Speaker 1: southern United States, up to fifty percent or forty or

1563
01:27:53,200 --> 01:27:55,840
Speaker 1: fifty percent of people might be infected with ZCO within

1564
01:27:55,960 --> 01:27:59,519
Speaker 1: you know, a few years time. And turned out now

1565
01:27:59,600 --> 01:28:02,960
Speaker 1: zeca wasn't killing people. The big fear about zeko was

1566
01:28:03,000 --> 01:28:06,040
Speaker 1: that it was going to cause microcephaly, which is a

1567
01:28:06,080 --> 01:28:10,000
Speaker 1: super small essentially creates a super small head and it's

1568
01:28:10,000 --> 01:28:14,719
Speaker 1: a terrible birth defect that was and people saw photos

1569
01:28:14,720 --> 01:28:16,719
Speaker 1: of it, and you know, they were very very concerned

1570
01:28:16,720 --> 01:28:19,000
Speaker 1: about it, understandably, but you don't even really hear about

1571
01:28:19,040 --> 01:28:21,599
Speaker 1: Zeke anymore. I remember West Nile virus was going to

1572
01:28:21,640 --> 01:28:24,240
Speaker 1: be something that you know, you'd just be walking around

1573
01:28:24,280 --> 01:28:25,840
Speaker 1: the park in some city in the US and you

1574
01:28:25,840 --> 01:28:28,800
Speaker 1: get West nil virus from mosquito bite. You know, there

1575
01:28:28,880 --> 01:28:30,800
Speaker 1: have been these moments where we're all supposed to be really,

1576
01:28:30,800 --> 01:28:35,000
Speaker 1: really scared. I'm not at the I'm not at the

1577
01:28:35,080 --> 01:28:37,680
Speaker 1: panic button phase of coronavirus, but I am at the

1578
01:28:38,160 --> 01:28:41,800
Speaker 1: it's gonna hit the United States. We're gonna have, in

1579
01:28:41,840 --> 01:28:45,519
Speaker 1: my opinion, we're gonna have corona spreading through US cities

1580
01:28:45,560 --> 01:28:50,879
Speaker 1: here within within a month or two. And that's gonna

1581
01:28:50,920 --> 01:28:53,040
Speaker 1: shake a lot. But first of all, it's scary, right,

1582
01:28:53,080 --> 01:28:55,479
Speaker 1: it's scary for you, believen with a two percent fatality rate,

1583
01:28:56,880 --> 01:28:59,200
Speaker 1: that's that's higher than a lot of other things that

1584
01:28:59,439 --> 01:29:02,479
Speaker 1: we've gotten used to having in the environment. How does

1585
01:29:02,520 --> 01:29:04,720
Speaker 1: this also play politically though, I mean, this will have

1586
01:29:04,800 --> 01:29:08,840
Speaker 1: pandemics have political implications, make no mistake about it. You know,

1587
01:29:08,840 --> 01:29:11,639
Speaker 1: you get socialists promising government healthcare. You get the governments

1588
01:29:11,640 --> 01:29:15,559
Speaker 1: supposed to protect us. I'm worried about this. Thanks for

1605
01:30:22,320 --> 01:30:24,599
Speaker 1: for all you do. I think I've told you before

1606
01:30:24,640 --> 01:30:28,040
Speaker 1: that I live in Albania. I teach English using the Bible.

1607
01:30:28,720 --> 01:30:30,640
Speaker 1: One of my students has said that he'd like to

1608
01:30:30,640 --> 01:30:33,479
Speaker 1: get an American history book to read because he just

1609
01:30:33,560 --> 01:30:37,040
Speaker 1: wants to know more about America's history. Could you recommend

1610
01:30:37,040 --> 01:30:39,800
Speaker 1: a title that I could get for him that would

1611
01:30:39,840 --> 01:30:42,439
Speaker 1: not be a liberal treatise and would give him what

1612
01:30:42,479 --> 01:30:46,320
Speaker 1: he wants to know. PS. He's already read The Residence,

1613
01:30:50,000 --> 01:30:53,920
Speaker 1: an American history book to read to know about American history.

1614
01:30:53,920 --> 01:30:56,120
Speaker 1: I mean, I honestly can't think, off the top of

1615
01:30:56,160 --> 01:31:00,759
Speaker 1: my head of it a really good overview of US

1616
01:31:00,880 --> 01:31:03,200
Speaker 1: history that's in one book. I can think of different

1617
01:31:03,240 --> 01:31:05,920
Speaker 1: periods of history where there are good books, but I

1618
01:31:06,320 --> 01:31:10,559
Speaker 1: can't think of one book that covers all that. So

1619
01:31:10,640 --> 01:31:12,840
Speaker 1: let me get back to you on that, Atlanta. I wish,

1620
01:31:12,960 --> 01:31:16,200
Speaker 1: I wish I had a better a better answer for

1621
01:31:16,240 --> 01:31:18,680
Speaker 1: you on this. Oh Man also slipped on my neck

1622
01:31:18,720 --> 01:31:22,280
Speaker 1: wrong last night? Is brutal? Who you got to do

1623
01:31:22,360 --> 01:31:27,439
Speaker 1: a radio show for three hours? Your neck? Hurst sucks? Bill? Hey, Buck,

1624
01:31:27,479 --> 01:31:30,120
Speaker 1: I haven't already discussed the fact that China manufactures the

1625
01:31:30,120 --> 01:31:34,519
Speaker 1: majority of our pharmaceuticals. It seems to me. That seems

1626
01:31:34,520 --> 01:31:37,479
Speaker 1: to me that with them in a position to control

1627
01:31:37,560 --> 01:31:40,200
Speaker 1: our most basic antibiotics, we could be greatly hurt as

1628
01:31:40,240 --> 01:31:43,040
Speaker 1: a nation. Especially with a possible coronavirus pandemic. What are

1629
01:31:43,080 --> 01:31:47,720
Speaker 1: your thoughts, Well, Bill, antibiotics don't do anything against viruses.

1630
01:31:48,240 --> 01:31:52,680
Speaker 1: They only do things against bacteria, So it's not going

1631
01:31:52,720 --> 01:31:55,240
Speaker 1: to mean anything that they manufacture antibiotics. If in fact

1632
01:31:55,240 --> 01:31:59,120
Speaker 1: there was a vaccine that had to be manufactured, I'd

1633
01:31:59,120 --> 01:32:01,320
Speaker 1: wonder where that would be done. I think that in

1634
01:32:01,360 --> 01:32:03,640
Speaker 1: the past, for example, the flu vaccine, some of the

1635
01:32:04,000 --> 01:32:05,760
Speaker 1: I think we got it from a company in Switzerland.

1636
01:32:07,600 --> 01:32:12,679
Speaker 1: Is it ABV or something I forget, But anyway, there's

1637
01:32:12,680 --> 01:32:14,960
Speaker 1: some big pharmaceutical companies that are not based in trying

1638
01:32:14,960 --> 01:32:18,280
Speaker 1: to do some of this stuff too. Right now, though,

1639
01:32:18,320 --> 01:32:22,000
Speaker 1: we really do need a at least a treatment protocol

1640
01:32:22,040 --> 01:32:24,679
Speaker 1: to bring down the fatality rate. That would be really helpful,

1641
01:32:24,720 --> 01:32:28,439
Speaker 1: because a two percent fatality rate doesn't sound that bad

1642
01:32:28,560 --> 01:32:31,000
Speaker 1: until you realize that a few hundred thousand people getting

1643
01:32:31,040 --> 01:32:34,360
Speaker 1: infected means a few thousand people are dying of this disease,

1644
01:32:35,439 --> 01:32:38,520
Speaker 1: and that's that's very that's that's a lot of casualties

1645
01:32:38,520 --> 01:32:42,759
Speaker 1: for us today. That's a lot of very tragic circumstances occurring.

1646
01:32:43,840 --> 01:32:47,120
Speaker 1: So yeah, I just wish the scientific community would stop,

1647
01:32:47,200 --> 01:32:50,919
Speaker 1: you know, stop messing around with the climate change garbage

1648
01:32:50,960 --> 01:32:55,080
Speaker 1: and focus in on real stuff like this. Stop telling

1649
01:32:55,120 --> 01:33:00,479
Speaker 1: us the band plastic bags too. Let's see here, Andy,

1650
01:33:00,920 --> 01:33:05,320
Speaker 1: Hi Buck, you rock, Andy, Thank you, you rock too.

1651
01:33:06,280 --> 01:33:09,000
Speaker 1: I do want to play Devil's advocate here. You mentioned

1652
01:33:09,000 --> 01:33:12,080
Speaker 1: a couple of days ago that Bernie voted Bernie voters

1653
01:33:12,200 --> 01:33:17,080
Speaker 1: voted for Trump, possibly costing what happened the election. I

1654
01:33:17,080 --> 01:33:18,800
Speaker 1: looked at some of the states that Trump lost by

1655
01:33:18,840 --> 01:33:21,360
Speaker 1: just a couple percentage points, and the difference there was

1656
01:33:21,400 --> 01:33:23,920
Speaker 1: Gary Johnson. I have to think if he wasn't in

1657
01:33:23,960 --> 01:33:26,080
Speaker 1: the race, a decent majority of his votes would have

1658
01:33:26,120 --> 01:33:29,679
Speaker 1: gone to Trump. Assuming this is correct, If Johnson wasn't in,

1659
01:33:30,120 --> 01:33:33,280
Speaker 1: Trump would have won four or five more states. I

1660
01:33:33,320 --> 01:33:36,439
Speaker 1: haven't looked. I've only looked at the Bernie numbers in

1661
01:33:36,479 --> 01:33:38,400
Speaker 1: those states where there were Bernie was a write in.

1662
01:33:38,479 --> 01:33:40,479
Speaker 1: I have not looked at the Gary Johnson numbers. So

1663
01:33:41,200 --> 01:33:43,559
Speaker 1: if you have done that analysis, I would defer to you.

1664
01:33:43,600 --> 01:33:47,519
Speaker 1: Assuming your numbers are correct, that certainly seems possible. So

1665
01:33:49,360 --> 01:33:52,200
Speaker 1: good on you for doing the work doing the homework yourself.

1666
01:33:52,240 --> 01:33:57,400
Speaker 1: I do appreciate it. Michelle, Hey Buck, I'm a new

1667
01:33:57,439 --> 01:34:01,280
Speaker 1: listener and a conservative millennial. Love your show so much.

1668
01:34:01,320 --> 01:34:04,479
Speaker 1: I listen to the shows in reverse chronological order. When

1669
01:34:04,479 --> 01:34:08,000
Speaker 1: you start selling freedom hot t shirts, please use Tribe blend.

1670
01:34:08,360 --> 01:34:11,040
Speaker 1: What is that, producer or what's tribe blend? I believe

1671
01:34:11,040 --> 01:34:15,559
Speaker 1: it's like a polyester cotton blend. Oh okay, So when

1672
01:34:15,600 --> 01:34:17,800
Speaker 1: we get our gear, when we get our gear up

1673
01:34:17,800 --> 01:34:19,479
Speaker 1: and running, maybe we can do that. We'll have plenty

1674
01:34:19,479 --> 01:34:22,400
Speaker 1: of options available. I'm sure. Yeah, when we actually get

1675
01:34:22,400 --> 01:34:24,679
Speaker 1: around to it, we'll get him. You know, we do everything.

1676
01:34:24,720 --> 01:34:27,000
Speaker 1: We just slog. It's just me and producer market here. Man,

1677
01:34:27,360 --> 01:34:29,320
Speaker 1: we're like a two man army. That's that's really what's

1678
01:34:29,320 --> 01:34:31,919
Speaker 1: going on here. You know, we got producer Nick sometimes

1679
01:34:31,920 --> 01:34:33,960
Speaker 1: gives us a little close air support. You know, he

1680
01:34:34,000 --> 01:34:36,760
Speaker 1: comes in, but he's not here located with us. He's

1681
01:34:36,800 --> 01:34:39,760
Speaker 1: like the sniper who's set up in a sniper's nest

1682
01:34:40,040 --> 01:34:42,400
Speaker 1: that can help us out. But we're kicking in the

1683
01:34:42,400 --> 01:34:48,760
Speaker 1: doors by ourselves. M. David, Hey, Bucking team. I listen

1684
01:34:48,800 --> 01:34:50,880
Speaker 1: to your radio broadcast on my way home from work,

1685
01:34:51,520 --> 01:34:54,639
Speaker 1: and hearing of California's attitude toward federal offt units ago,

1686
01:34:54,640 --> 01:34:56,920
Speaker 1: a solution occurred to me. I'm not sure if it's

1687
01:34:57,000 --> 01:35:01,240
Speaker 1: legally possible, But could President Trump issue executive orders suspending

1688
01:35:01,280 --> 01:35:04,439
Speaker 1: all federal aid to California until they comply with federal law.

1689
01:35:05,000 --> 01:35:08,479
Speaker 1: I believe there is precedent for this. If so, that

1690
01:35:08,520 --> 01:35:12,040
Speaker 1: would certainly alter the dialogue and force California into compliance

1691
01:35:12,040 --> 01:35:14,080
Speaker 1: with laws they agreed to support as a condition of

1692
01:35:14,120 --> 01:35:17,559
Speaker 1: receiving aid. Almost poetic in its elegance, is it not.

1693
01:35:18,520 --> 01:35:20,240
Speaker 1: I enjoy the show and learn a lot from it

1694
01:35:20,400 --> 01:35:22,639
Speaker 1: and has a different angle of attack from other talk shows,

1695
01:35:22,640 --> 01:35:25,000
Speaker 1: and that's refreshing you folks. Keep up the good work

1696
01:35:25,000 --> 01:35:26,840
Speaker 1: and I'll keep listening. I haven't been listening long, but

1697
01:35:26,880 --> 01:35:30,880
Speaker 1: I'll say it anyway. She's high. David, welcome man. Great

1698
01:35:30,920 --> 01:35:32,320
Speaker 1: to have you as part of Team Buck. Thank you

1699
01:35:32,360 --> 01:35:35,560
Speaker 1: so much for your note, and we appreciate all the

1700
01:35:35,640 --> 01:35:40,560
Speaker 1: kind words. As for using federal dollars to force compliance,

1701
01:35:41,640 --> 01:35:44,519
Speaker 1: that can be tricky. That's something that would certainly go

1702
01:35:44,560 --> 01:35:47,959
Speaker 1: through the courts. You know. The Obama administration, for example,

1703
01:35:48,560 --> 01:35:53,320
Speaker 1: even when Obamacare was upheld the first time, the Obama

1704
01:35:53,320 --> 01:36:00,000
Speaker 1: administration was not able to get the part of Obamacare

1705
01:36:00,120 --> 01:36:03,920
Speaker 1: that would have said to states, you either expand your

1706
01:36:04,080 --> 01:36:06,479
Speaker 1: Medicaid roles which states had to pay into as well

1707
01:36:06,479 --> 01:36:08,639
Speaker 1: as the federal government, or we're going to pull all

1708
01:36:08,720 --> 01:36:12,960
Speaker 1: federal funding. The Supreme Court, even the same Supreme Court

1709
01:36:13,080 --> 01:36:17,080
Speaker 1: breakdown that upheld Obamacare, said that that degree a federal

1710
01:36:17,120 --> 01:36:24,000
Speaker 1: coercion of the states was too much. John, I support

1711
01:36:24,040 --> 01:36:25,960
Speaker 1: the First Amendment one hundred percent, and I think any

1712
01:36:25,960 --> 01:36:28,680
Speaker 1: infringement is an erosion of our republic. But for a

1713
01:36:28,760 --> 01:36:32,840
Speaker 1: thought exercise, what if it was illegal for corporations to

1714
01:36:32,880 --> 01:36:38,400
Speaker 1: own news organizations and the news organizations had to operate

1715
01:36:38,479 --> 01:36:40,479
Speaker 1: all on their own without the backing of billion dollars

1716
01:36:40,520 --> 01:36:44,000
Speaker 1: media conglomerates. Do you think reporters would take more accountability

1717
01:36:44,040 --> 01:36:47,040
Speaker 1: and even act as true journalists if they actually had

1718
01:36:47,040 --> 01:36:49,640
Speaker 1: to tell the truth to thrive rather than pander and

1719
01:36:49,640 --> 01:36:54,519
Speaker 1: read the daily DNC talking points. This wouldn't be an

1720
01:36:54,520 --> 01:36:57,880
Speaker 1: infringement the first, but a regulation on the business model.

1721
01:36:58,760 --> 01:37:00,559
Speaker 1: What are some other ways you think we the people

1722
01:37:00,560 --> 01:37:02,479
Speaker 1: the FEDS could take action against the media for their

1723
01:37:02,479 --> 01:37:07,120
Speaker 1: countless lies that doesn't infringe on the first John, No,

1724
01:37:07,280 --> 01:37:09,920
Speaker 1: I don't think provide. I don't think stopping corporate ownership

1725
01:37:09,960 --> 01:37:13,920
Speaker 1: of media corporations would make media corporations more honest because

1726
01:37:13,960 --> 01:37:17,720
Speaker 1: the reason the media corporations engage in advocacy under the

1727
01:37:17,760 --> 01:37:23,479
Speaker 1: guise of journalism is because they are ideologically predisposed to

1728
01:37:23,520 --> 01:37:26,160
Speaker 1: do that. They're going with what they themselves believe anyway.

1729
01:37:26,640 --> 01:37:32,280
Speaker 1: And also their audiences are very much all of that

1730
01:37:32,439 --> 01:37:34,759
Speaker 1: left wing mindset, and so they're pandering to their audience.

1731
01:37:34,800 --> 01:37:38,439
Speaker 1: So they're pandering to their own sensibility and to their audiences,

1732
01:37:38,439 --> 01:37:41,599
Speaker 1: something that I think you will continue to see happening

1733
01:37:41,600 --> 01:37:44,160
Speaker 1: no matter what kind of regulations we try to put

1734
01:37:44,240 --> 01:37:52,040
Speaker 1: in place, David writes Buck. Oh ah, Prouncer Mark got

1735
01:37:52,120 --> 01:37:55,679
Speaker 1: some news for you to Chief Buck. I totally agree

1736
01:37:55,680 --> 01:37:58,759
Speaker 1: with you about the Avenger movies. Some of them were okay,

1737
01:37:58,760 --> 01:38:01,960
Speaker 1: but Endgame was awful. They crammed in way too many

1738
01:38:01,960 --> 01:38:05,960
Speaker 1: cliche storylines. Oh nothing I hate more than time loss

1739
01:38:05,960 --> 01:38:08,360
Speaker 1: sitting through a bad movie. I also agree with you

1740
01:38:08,360 --> 01:38:11,720
Speaker 1: about movies staying around ninety minutes. Shield say, what do

1741
01:38:11,720 --> 01:38:14,000
Speaker 1: you got to say now, Producer Mark uh Well, first

1742
01:38:14,000 --> 01:38:18,920
Speaker 1: of all, that is a parallel opinion and gave one

1743
01:38:18,960 --> 01:38:21,960
Speaker 1: listener down Eric. Endgame is one of the few movies

1744
01:38:21,960 --> 01:38:24,240
Speaker 1: that I got like an actual emotional like having cry

1745
01:38:24,320 --> 01:38:26,679
Speaker 1: or anything when I go, and an actual reaction out

1746
01:38:26,680 --> 01:38:28,320
Speaker 1: of me. Well, you did, Kim, I didn't realize other

1747
01:38:28,400 --> 01:38:29,920
Speaker 1: like ten of them. So you've convinced me. I'm actually

1748
01:38:29,920 --> 01:38:31,679
Speaker 1: even go back to the very what is the first one?

1749
01:38:32,120 --> 01:38:34,920
Speaker 1: I believe it's the first Iron Man, and so then

1750
01:38:35,000 --> 01:38:38,080
Speaker 1: what comes after that? Maybe the Avengers. I don't know

1751
01:38:38,120 --> 01:38:42,200
Speaker 1: about original Avengers. Yes, I think I saw that there

1752
01:38:42,280 --> 01:38:44,800
Speaker 1: is the way to watch in chronological order war in

1753
01:38:45,200 --> 01:38:49,120
Speaker 1: way they were released order. Is Ragnarok a part of

1754
01:38:49,120 --> 01:38:51,240
Speaker 1: this or is that a different thing? Agnrock is a

1755
01:38:51,240 --> 01:38:53,560
Speaker 1: part of it? Yeah, because that I saw Marvels a

1756
01:38:53,600 --> 01:38:57,479
Speaker 1: part of it. The Ragnarrock thing was actually kind of entertaining.

1757
01:38:57,479 --> 01:38:59,240
Speaker 1: I kind of liked that you liked, Yeah, that I

1758
01:38:59,320 --> 01:39:01,720
Speaker 1: kind of liked. If you watch them in water there

1759
01:39:01,720 --> 01:39:04,479
Speaker 1: a little bit better, all right, David producer Mark said,

1760
01:39:04,680 --> 01:39:08,400
Speaker 1: also on you, that's one listener out of hundreds of thousands. Yeah,

1761
01:39:08,439 --> 01:39:10,639
Speaker 1: that's true, but that's one. And I think I think

1762
01:39:10,680 --> 01:39:12,479
Speaker 1: we're about I want to say ten to one. It

1763
01:39:12,560 --> 01:39:14,080
Speaker 1: might be more like fifty to one in favor of

1764
01:39:14,120 --> 01:39:17,479
Speaker 1: Avengers versus against but at least I'm not alone. Yeah,

1765
01:39:17,520 --> 01:39:19,479
Speaker 1: there's there's a couple of you that are in there.

1766
01:39:19,760 --> 01:39:21,720
Speaker 1: There's a couple of us weirdos, out there that they're

1767
01:39:21,760 --> 01:39:24,200
Speaker 1: like the Avengers. All right, that's fair enough. Well, David,

1768
01:39:24,439 --> 01:39:26,320
Speaker 1: you and producer Mark can pick a place to fight

1769
01:39:26,360 --> 01:39:31,160
Speaker 1: after school. Use violence, that's true. Producer Mark fights with

1770
01:39:31,280 --> 01:39:35,640
Speaker 1: his mind. TJ. Buck. I hate to be a catastrophist,

1771
01:39:35,640 --> 01:39:37,640
Speaker 1: but I can't help but notice the dow fell a

1772
01:39:37,760 --> 01:39:41,160
Speaker 1: thousand points on the opening day after the realization that

1773
01:39:41,200 --> 01:39:44,200
Speaker 1: Bernie will be the Democrat nominee. They say it's because

1774
01:39:44,280 --> 01:39:48,240
Speaker 1: of the coronavirus, but I'm skeptical of that reasoning regardless

1775
01:39:48,240 --> 01:39:50,040
Speaker 1: of what the dial fell. I can't help but wonder

1776
01:39:50,479 --> 01:39:53,360
Speaker 1: what Bernie will do to the market confidence by being

1777
01:39:53,479 --> 01:39:56,160
Speaker 1: by just being the nominee, not even by being elected president.

1778
01:39:56,520 --> 01:39:58,720
Speaker 1: Most conservatives will admit the Trump will not say much

1779
01:39:58,760 --> 01:40:01,160
Speaker 1: of a chance if the market tanks for November. So

1780
01:40:01,200 --> 01:40:04,120
Speaker 1: how does Trump keep market confidence high with the inevitability

1781
01:40:04,120 --> 01:40:06,600
Speaker 1: of Bernie becoming a Democrat nominee. By the way, this

1782
01:40:07,840 --> 01:40:09,600
Speaker 1: don't tell anybody else. I said that this is the

1783
01:40:09,640 --> 01:40:11,960
Speaker 1: smartest audience and talk radio listens to this show. I'm

1784
01:40:12,000 --> 01:40:13,679
Speaker 1: just gonna say it. We got this. The team Buck

1785
01:40:13,720 --> 01:40:17,160
Speaker 1: is the smartest. The other audiences are gonna yell at me.

1786
01:40:17,160 --> 01:40:19,200
Speaker 1: I don't care Team Buck is the smartest audience on radio.

1787
01:40:20,520 --> 01:40:22,479
Speaker 1: Just listen to the stuff that people are writing in

1788
01:40:22,520 --> 01:40:24,439
Speaker 1: all the time. I'm like, that's an that is an

1789
01:40:24,479 --> 01:40:30,360
Speaker 1: excellent point, very well thought out in reason, Sir or madam. Yeah,

1790
01:40:30,400 --> 01:40:33,560
Speaker 1: I think that Bernie Sanders does scare Wall Street, and

1791
01:40:33,640 --> 01:40:38,520
Speaker 1: he should. I think Bernie Sanders scares anybody who owns property,

1792
01:40:39,160 --> 01:40:43,240
Speaker 1: and he should. Anybody who has built up assets, anybody

1793
01:40:43,240 --> 01:40:46,200
Speaker 1: who has worked very hard for whatever they have, just

1794
01:40:46,360 --> 01:40:50,080
Speaker 1: understand that Bernie Sanders, he's not a friend to you.

1795
01:40:50,160 --> 01:40:55,080
Speaker 1: Continuing on with that, prosperity, Bernie Sanders is a concern

1796
01:40:56,200 --> 01:40:57,880
Speaker 1: that you should have and if you were to win.

1797
01:40:58,600 --> 01:41:00,599
Speaker 1: You know, it's funny they pretended that and Trump won,

1798
01:41:00,680 --> 01:41:02,160
Speaker 1: that the stock market would tank, and it's been the

1799
01:41:02,160 --> 01:41:04,599
Speaker 1: exact opposite. I'm here to tell you if Bernie Sanders

1800
01:41:04,600 --> 01:41:06,200
Speaker 1: does win the presidential I mean, first he has to

1801
01:41:06,240 --> 01:41:08,160
Speaker 1: win the primary, which is not in the bag yet.

1802
01:41:08,200 --> 01:41:12,600
Speaker 1: It's not done. But if Bernie Sanders wins the presidency,

1803
01:41:13,960 --> 01:41:16,760
Speaker 1: be prepared for a stock market crash the next day.

1804
01:41:16,800 --> 01:41:19,200
Speaker 1: I mean, be prepared for, you know, a twenty percent

1805
01:41:19,280 --> 01:41:22,080
Speaker 1: market correction. I really think that could happen. Just all

1806
01:41:22,080 --> 01:41:24,200
Speaker 1: of a stuff all you know, all the gains from

1807
01:41:24,200 --> 01:41:28,120
Speaker 1: the last year to just erased, and maybe we even

1808
01:41:28,160 --> 01:41:31,760
Speaker 1: go into you know, pre Trump in the red in

1809
01:41:31,840 --> 01:41:34,000
Speaker 1: terms of where the market has gone in the Trump era,

1810
01:41:34,040 --> 01:41:36,880
Speaker 1: and then Bernie Sanders comes in, because it's just it's

1811
01:41:36,920 --> 01:41:40,439
Speaker 1: wealth destroying government coming in and taking from people and

1812
01:41:40,600 --> 01:41:45,320
Speaker 1: inefficiently allocating capital and spending money on programs that don't work,

1813
01:41:45,360 --> 01:41:47,760
Speaker 1: and taking money from people that are growing wealth and

1814
01:41:47,800 --> 01:41:50,200
Speaker 1: that are doing good things and that are providing services

1815
01:41:50,240 --> 01:41:56,120
Speaker 1: and employing people. The Bernie Sanders model is wealth destroying.

1816
01:41:57,280 --> 01:42:00,479
Speaker 1: It does not It does not make the economy stronger

1817
01:42:00,520 --> 01:42:04,240
Speaker 1: in any way. And that's why it's it's such a

1818
01:42:04,240 --> 01:42:08,559
Speaker 1: concern and it should continue to be a concern. You're

1819
01:42:08,640 --> 01:42:12,360
Speaker 1: in the Freedom Hunt. This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast.

1820
01:42:15,960 --> 01:42:18,400
Speaker 1: All right, roll call continues here with Eric write again,

1821
01:42:18,439 --> 01:42:21,760
Speaker 1: I hope you heard Adam Schiff's question, what is to

1822
01:42:21,840 --> 01:42:25,520
Speaker 1: stomp a president from using the intelligence community to investigate

1823
01:42:25,560 --> 01:42:29,160
Speaker 1: political rivals? Sitting here waiting on GOP senators to challenge

1824
01:42:29,200 --> 01:42:32,040
Speaker 1: him on this response and believe we should hit him

1825
01:42:32,080 --> 01:42:35,599
Speaker 1: hard on this one. Yeah, they've already done that. I mean,

1826
01:42:35,600 --> 01:42:40,960
Speaker 1: the most astonishing presidential political scandal of my lifetime. It's

1827
01:42:40,960 --> 01:42:44,360
Speaker 1: already happened. Democrats have already done it to us. They

1828
01:42:44,800 --> 01:42:50,599
Speaker 1: used the intelligence community, they abused intelligence operations in order

1829
01:42:50,640 --> 01:42:53,559
Speaker 1: to spy on a presidential campaign. That is what happened.

1830
01:42:54,200 --> 01:42:58,920
Speaker 1: But because we live in such a dishonest media environment,

1831
01:42:59,520 --> 01:43:05,479
Speaker 1: they were use to make that well, they refuse to

1832
01:43:05,560 --> 01:43:07,720
Speaker 1: not only just agree that that's what happened, but you

1833
01:43:07,760 --> 01:43:11,439
Speaker 1: make any amends for it. Let's see we have next

Speaker 1: you coming back into the Hut. You are always welcome,

1876
01:45:16,240 --> 01:45:21,280
Speaker 1: and thank you very much for being here. Aaron, I

1877
01:45:21,400 --> 01:45:24,519
Speaker 1: hear you tried yoga. That is fantastic. After I left

1878
01:45:24,520 --> 01:45:27,400
Speaker 1: the United States Marine Corps, I went to school and

1879
01:45:27,520 --> 01:45:30,160
Speaker 1: enrolled in yoga with a friend, mostly going to meet women,

1880
01:45:30,400 --> 01:45:33,120
Speaker 1: but to my surprise, it was a lifesaver I had

1881
01:45:33,160 --> 01:45:35,439
Speaker 1: to do. I had to deal with some residual stuff

1882
01:45:35,479 --> 01:45:38,400
Speaker 1: from the Corps, and it helped a lot with that. However,

1883
01:45:38,439 --> 01:45:40,479
Speaker 1: I'm also a goalie in hockey and it was amazing

1884
01:45:40,520 --> 01:45:42,840
Speaker 1: for flexibility. In the end, I took every yoga class

1885
01:45:42,880 --> 01:45:45,400
Speaker 1: I could keep doing it. Yeah, Aaron, I have been

1886
01:45:45,439 --> 01:45:47,800
Speaker 1: doing more yoga. I am going to go back to it.

1887
01:45:47,840 --> 01:45:49,599
Speaker 1: I did feel very good. It hurts me a lot

1888
01:45:49,640 --> 01:45:51,200
Speaker 1: as I'm doing it, which probably means I need to

1889
01:45:51,200 --> 01:45:53,000
Speaker 1: do more of it because I'm very not flexible and

1890
01:45:53,080 --> 01:45:55,720
Speaker 1: I sit here with a tremendously painful neck from being

1891
01:45:55,800 --> 01:45:59,120
Speaker 1: hunched over doing tech snack all the time. So yeah,

1892
01:45:59,120 --> 01:46:01,640
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do more yoga for sure, and I'm glad man.

1893
01:46:01,680 --> 01:46:04,120
Speaker 1: I'm yeah. Hey, if Aaron from the Marine Corps is

1894
01:46:04,160 --> 01:46:06,400
Speaker 1: yoga is good, producer, Mark and I have to check
