I 6 00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:19,239 Speaker 1: knew it was going to be crazy the reactions, but 7 00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:24,040 Speaker 1: even for left wing meltdowns, the reaction from hey, my 8 00:00:24,120 --> 00:00:26,639 Speaker 1: goal is to make sure that less people are victims 9 00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:29,680 Speaker 1: of violent crime and less murders are taking place in Washington, 10 00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:35,680 Speaker 1: d C.

The New York 20 00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:07,479 Speaker 1: City mayor's race is heating up. 21 00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:12,120 Speaker 2: Buck. I saw George will on Bill Maher over. 22 00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:16,000 Speaker 1: The weekend making the Clay Travis argument of Hey, maybe 23 00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:18,240 Speaker 1: we just have to let New York City stew in 24 00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:23,240 Speaker 1: its own ineptitude in order to and rather than try 25 00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:28,119 Speaker 1: to completely save them from their derangement. We'll talk about that, 26 00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:30,920 Speaker 1: maybe break down that universe, but I want to just 27 00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:32,120 Speaker 1: start and have some fun here. 28 00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:33,839 Speaker 2: We told you this was coming. 29 00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:38,280 Speaker 1: We said Trump is trying to save the lives of 30 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:43,360 Speaker 1: tons of Democrat voters in Washington, d C. And they 31 00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:45,640 Speaker 1: are not going to be able to handle it. By 32 00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 1: the way, we should also mention consumer prices inflation low 33 00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:54,680 Speaker 1: yet again two point seven percent below expectations, making finally 34 00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:58,280 Speaker 1: some of those rate cuts start to appear more likely, 35 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:00,720 Speaker 1: maybe as soon as next month. We talk about that 36 00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:02,960 Speaker 1: as well, But let's have some fun here. 37 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:03,320 Speaker 2: Buck. 38 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 1: Here is great montage from our producer Greg of left wings. 39 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:13,959 Speaker 1: Left wingers complaining about the overreach of Donald Trump keeping 40 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:16,120 Speaker 1: them from getting killed in Washington, d C. 41 00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:17,080 Speaker 2: This has cut three. 42 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:20,400 Speaker 3: Is in government overreach or something that our big cities 43 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:23,639 Speaker 3: desperately need. They called to take over the capital, drawing 44 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:28,680 Speaker 3: backlash critics accusing the president of overreaching, authoritarian overreached. 45 00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:31,560 Speaker 2: They feel like this is federal overreach. 46 00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:34,800 Speaker 4: This is overreach, this is a feritarianism. 47 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:35,000 Speaker 2: This is an overreach. 48 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 5: The sun necessary. 49 00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:39,040 Speaker 2: It's about federal overreach, it's political overreach. 50 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:41,080 Speaker 6: This seems like a bit of an overreach. 51 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:45,960 Speaker 1: It is amazing how well they deliver the exact same 52 00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:49,240 Speaker 1: talking points. Let me play a couple to be fair 53 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:53,000 Speaker 1: here for you, Buck of left wing journalist actually saying 54 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:56,320 Speaker 1: you know what, it isn't safe in DC. Here was 55 00:02:56,440 --> 00:03:00,160 Speaker 1: to be fair Kyra Phillips at ABC News saying, hey, 56 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,440 Speaker 1: DC's actually very dangerous cut six. 57 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:06,440 Speaker 3: Usually that's how you played Devil's advocate as you talk about, 58 00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 3: oh well, stat's say crime is down. However, I can 59 00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 3: tell you firsthand here in downtown DC where we work, 60 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:16,520 Speaker 3: right here around our bureau, just in the past six months, 61 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:19,160 Speaker 3: you know, there were two people shot. One person died 62 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 3: literally two blocks down here from the bureau. It was 63 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:25,320 Speaker 3: within the last two years that I actually was jumped 64 00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:28,360 Speaker 3: walking just two blocks down from here. And then just 65 00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:31,680 Speaker 3: this morning one of my coworkers said her car was 66 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 3: stolen a block away from the bureau. So we can 67 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 3: talk about the numbers going down, but crime is happening 68 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:43,720 Speaker 3: every single day because we're all experiencing at firsthand while 69 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:45,400 Speaker 3: working and living down here. 70 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:49,960 Speaker 1: One more buck, your buddy Joe Scarborough, who suddenly has 71 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:53,240 Speaker 1: taken truth sarum and occasionally now says things that are 72 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:59,400 Speaker 1: objectively true. Said, hey, privately, everybody's talking about how DC's unsafe, 73 00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:02,240 Speaker 1: and then publicly they're complaining because Trump's trying to make 74 00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 1: it safer. 75 00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:03,360 Speaker 2: Cut seven. 76 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:06,680 Speaker 6: People have been calling me over the past couple of days, going, 77 00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 6: you know, Washington should have gotten involved years ago. This 78 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 6: place is dangerous, it's a mess, it's a wreck, and whatever, 79 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 6: and then they'll go on Twitter Goo. 80 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:16,840 Speaker 2: As they were. 81 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:21,440 Speaker 7: It's outrage of all time, the jacking, which I understand 82 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 7: a people need to express their concerns about Donald Trump 83 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:27,039 Speaker 7: going too far. 84 00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:29,440 Speaker 6: We saw what happened back in twenty twenty with a 85 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:32,839 Speaker 6: national guard. Certainly can't have any repeat of that. Don't 86 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:36,600 Speaker 6: want the federalization of the entire city, but man, I 87 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:40,040 Speaker 6: don't care what the crime statistics say. Crime has been 88 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:43,000 Speaker 6: a problem in this city for the thirty two years 89 00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 6: I've been living inside and outside of the city. It's just, 90 00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:51,600 Speaker 6: you know, even now, Meek and I were talking to 91 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:53,320 Speaker 6: somebody who lives in the city. 92 00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:55,440 Speaker 2: These are all Democrats who. 93 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:58,080 Speaker 6: Said, you know, our friends won't walk more than three 94 00:04:58,080 --> 00:04:59,279 Speaker 6: blocks in DC. 95 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:04,440 Speaker 2: I mean, how it's like he was listening to the 96 00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 2: Clay and Buck show yesterday and is now just reiterating 97 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 2: everything that we told you. Because we tell you the truth. 98 00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:13,680 Speaker 2: We tell you what's really going on, which is why 99 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:17,600 Speaker 2: you grace us with your time and why this project 100 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 2: of getting to hang out with you all works as 101 00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 2: well as it does, because we're all a team in 102 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:26,159 Speaker 2: the truth. It is so obvious to anyone who is. 103 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:27,559 Speaker 2: And this is the thing too. You have two guys 104 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:30,040 Speaker 2: here who have both lived in d C, so we 105 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 2: we know right this isn't some city. I can quote 106 00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:36,320 Speaker 2: statistics in Saint Louis to tell you that it's dangerous. 107 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:40,279 Speaker 2: I can tell you stories, personal stories about it. I 108 00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:42,120 Speaker 2: remember I was woken up in the middle of the 109 00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:45,799 Speaker 2: night living at d C Clay and what was considered 110 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 2: a kind of a nice neighborhood. It wasn't Georgetown nice, 111 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:50,360 Speaker 2: but it was a nice enough neighborhoods logan circle area 112 00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:52,360 Speaker 2: for those of you who know DC. And there was 113 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:56,680 Speaker 2: not a shooting. A shootout on my corner. Two guys 114 00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:59,359 Speaker 2: who are at one of the big hotel chains I 115 00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:02,880 Speaker 2: forget which one pulled guns on each other and shot 116 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:05,159 Speaker 2: it out. Neither of them hit anyone. But I remember 117 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:06,520 Speaker 2: being woken up in the middle of night by this. 118 00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:09,240 Speaker 2: You could say, oh, Buck, but that's anecdotal. Everybody who 119 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:12,080 Speaker 2: lives in DC has these anecdotal stories no matter where 120 00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:14,680 Speaker 2: you live in DC. And that is a different thing. 121 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:16,720 Speaker 2: It is a different thing, and they talked about it. 122 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,239 Speaker 2: I did watch some Morning Joe this morning. You know, Sorry, guys, 123 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:21,719 Speaker 2: that is a different thing they talked about on Morning Joe. 124 00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:24,640 Speaker 2: How if you live in Manhattan, you might have a 125 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:28,120 Speaker 2: story about someone being crazy on this In fact, if 126 00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 2: you take the subway, you definitely have stories that some 127 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:32,560 Speaker 2: being crazy on the subway. And you might have some 128 00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:36,720 Speaker 2: stories about vagrins and about some unsettling things. You don't 129 00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 2: have a story about the summer intern who just got 130 00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:42,120 Speaker 2: stabbed to death last week. Everybody who lives in DC 131 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:45,720 Speaker 2: knows this. And one of the brilliant things from that, 132 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:47,800 Speaker 2: that's the reality there. One of the brilliant things here 133 00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:49,919 Speaker 2: once again from Trump and Clay you were hitting it 134 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:53,640 Speaker 2: hard yesterday. It's so important for everyone to know this. 135 00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:57,359 Speaker 2: Trump is forcing them to defend the indefensible once again. 136 00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:02,960 Speaker 2: Once again, DC is not a safe city. Anyone who 137 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:07,320 Speaker 2: tells you otherwise is lying. Or just is ignorant and 138 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:10,520 Speaker 2: it should be a lot better. The city Council in 139 00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:14,280 Speaker 2: DC is so insane that the Democrats had to go 140 00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 2: along in Congress and override legislation that they were trying 141 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:21,720 Speaker 2: to pass. The DC City Council tried to make carjacking 142 00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:26,640 Speaker 2: a less serious statute, and the United States Congress was like, 143 00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:28,560 Speaker 2: you guys are nuts. You can't do that in our 144 00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:30,680 Speaker 2: nation's capital because we have to drive in to go 145 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:32,480 Speaker 2: to our jobs and we don't want to be carjacked. 146 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 2: Democrats Clay once again caught completely flat footed on this. 147 00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:41,600 Speaker 2: They look like buffoons. What Trump's doing makes perfect sense. 148 00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:44,200 Speaker 2: And if he shows results, which by the way, I 149 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 2: think he will, I think there will be results from this. 150 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:50,600 Speaker 2: It'll just be another w where Democrats look like they're 151 00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:54,960 Speaker 2: the pro crime party and the emotionally erratic liar party. 152 00:07:56,120 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 1: I also think this could be a pilot program. If 153 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 1: Trump surges National guardsmen and additional resources in Washington, d C. 154 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 1: And we see a market decline in violent crime, why 155 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:17,720 Speaker 1: would that not be possible with state National Guard troops. 156 00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:20,080 Speaker 1: You mentioned Saint Louis. I was looking. I think I 157 00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:22,600 Speaker 1: let me see if I looked and flagged it. But 158 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 1: the cities that actually have the largest awful crime rates, 159 00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:31,640 Speaker 1: I was very kind of interested in that, And some 160 00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:35,720 Speaker 1: of them you would not be surprised by. Memphis is awful, 161 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:41,000 Speaker 1: and Kansas City, I was surprised by, is incredibly awful 162 00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 1: when it comes to violent crime. Why couldn't we apply 163 00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:47,560 Speaker 1: some of the same lessons that might be learned in Washington, 164 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:51,120 Speaker 1: d C. To those cities and drive down violent crime everywhere? 165 00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:55,040 Speaker 2: Well, you absolutely could. And this is the critical point. 166 00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:58,240 Speaker 2: This is a choice the same way, and this is 167 00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:01,680 Speaker 2: really important, the same way that we saw that Biden's 168 00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:07,200 Speaker 2: open border was a choice. Trump has proven that letting 169 00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:11,840 Speaker 2: ten million people flood into the country under false asylum claims, 170 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:16,000 Speaker 2: entering illegally and then gaming our system and taking advantage 171 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:18,800 Speaker 2: of the American people that did not have to happen. 172 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:23,480 Speaker 2: Democrats chose to make that happen. They're also choosing for 173 00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:25,480 Speaker 2: crime to continue in all these cities at the level 174 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:27,280 Speaker 2: that it is. I mean, you can go down the list, 175 00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:29,960 Speaker 2: play New Orleans, a beautiful city that I love way 176 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:32,400 Speaker 2: too much crime. Saint louis so much crime that when 177 00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:34,480 Speaker 2: I visited our affiliate there a few years ago and 178 00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 2: I asked my Uber driver. I was like, hey, downtown 179 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:38,840 Speaker 2: looks kind of nice. He's like, don't walk alone at 180 00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:42,560 Speaker 2: night here. I remember. I'm like, in the main downtown, 181 00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:44,360 Speaker 2: you're the sports stadium. And he goes, oh, no, don't 182 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:47,679 Speaker 2: walk alone at night. I said, Okay, that's not a 183 00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 2: big and everyone that I saw who lived in the 184 00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:51,440 Speaker 2: suburbs there said the same thing. It's too dangerous at night. 185 00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:54,880 Speaker 2: You know. Citi's like Baltimore City. I haven't been to Detroit. 186 00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:56,920 Speaker 2: I have spent a lot of time in Baltimore. Baltimore 187 00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,840 Speaker 2: is far too dangerous, far too much crime. The things 188 00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:02,440 Speaker 2: that they keep saying they want to do, oh we 189 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:06,840 Speaker 2: need more like you know, social workers, or we need 190 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:10,640 Speaker 2: more welfare programs or whatever, that doesn't do anything. Fighting 191 00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:14,000 Speaker 2: crime involves enforcing the law and locking up criminals. DC 192 00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:17,680 Speaker 2: had three thousand, give or take, has about three thousand 193 00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:20,160 Speaker 2: felony arrests a year. Now, it's only three hundred and 194 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:22,040 Speaker 2: sixty five days in a year, but three thousand felony 195 00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:25,600 Speaker 2: arrests in a year. Clay probably fifteen hundred to two 196 00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:29,840 Speaker 2: thousand people in DC are really doing the bad stuff. Yeah, 197 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:32,319 Speaker 2: really doing the bad stuff out of a city of 198 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:35,280 Speaker 2: six hundred thousand. If you're willing to lock up even 199 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:37,920 Speaker 2: five hundred to one thousand more of these serious felons, 200 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 2: you know what happens. Everybody's safer one hundred percent. 201 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:46,200 Speaker 1: And we're speaking as grown men, who I think, in general, 202 00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:49,120 Speaker 1: are less concerned with crime. I don't know about you. 203 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:52,079 Speaker 1: I really don't think about being a victim of crime 204 00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:55,000 Speaker 1: that often. But I was having this conversation with my 205 00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:55,920 Speaker 1: wife the other day. 206 00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:59,000 Speaker 2: I mean, Franklin, you might have like a squirrel or 207 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:01,840 Speaker 2: run across your roof where not where I live, I 208 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:02,600 Speaker 2: mean anywhere. 209 00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 1: But I was having this conversation with my wife and 210 00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 1: she said, you know, you and Buckman talking about crime. 211 00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:15,880 Speaker 1: Every woman when she walks into a when she walks 212 00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:19,800 Speaker 1: into a parking garage, is her head is on a swivel. 213 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:23,920 Speaker 1: She's holding her keys to be used as a weapon. 214 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:24,640 Speaker 8: You know. 215 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:28,319 Speaker 2: The most dangerous places, the most dangerous places, especially for women, 216 00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:32,640 Speaker 2: parking garages, gas station, parking garages, gas station, that's the 217 00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:35,679 Speaker 2: worst place for women to be specifically, I told my 218 00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:37,640 Speaker 2: wife recently. I think I said it on the show. 219 00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:43,080 Speaker 1: Hey, Nashville, where I live, certain neighborhoods feel unsafe. I said, 220 00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:46,679 Speaker 1: you're not getting gas anymore in Nashville. Like, come out 221 00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:50,000 Speaker 1: to Franklin where we are after dark and you can 222 00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 1: fill up the car. Plan it that way. But I 223 00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 1: think that every man thinks about this in the context 224 00:11:57,080 --> 00:12:02,199 Speaker 1: of wife, daughter, mom. Every woman thinks about it all 225 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:05,680 Speaker 1: the time. Right when crime is at a high level, 226 00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:09,440 Speaker 1: women are thinking about this all the time. And I 227 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:13,719 Speaker 1: guarantee you, especially all the women that are in the 228 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:17,840 Speaker 1: UH media and are conscious of the high rates of 229 00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 1: violent crime that are going on, they actually agree. And 230 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:23,480 Speaker 1: I think one of the things that this illuminates is 231 00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:29,120 Speaker 1: Trump says what lots of people think. And the difference 232 00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:34,120 Speaker 1: between authentic politicians and inauthentic politicians is what I give 233 00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:37,520 Speaker 1: them credit here. Joe Scarborough just pointed to, which is 234 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:42,319 Speaker 1: most people agree with what Trump's doing privately, but publicly, 235 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:45,120 Speaker 1: because it's Trump, they're claiming they don't. And I think 236 00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:48,280 Speaker 1: increasingly more and more of the American public is seeing 237 00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:52,040 Speaker 1: through the bs and saying, wait a minute, you said yesterday. 238 00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:53,920 Speaker 1: I think it's a good point. You could disagree on 239 00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:55,920 Speaker 1: tax rates or tariff rates. I mean, I just said 240 00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:58,880 Speaker 1: this on Fox News, but it's part disagreeing on keeping 241 00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:03,040 Speaker 1: people from getting murdered is a really tough argument to make, right, Hey, 242 00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:06,679 Speaker 1: I want less people to die violently is something. 243 00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:08,720 Speaker 2: That everybody in America should say. Hey, I'll sign on 244 00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:11,440 Speaker 2: to that. Like I said, this is one of Clay's 245 00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:15,720 Speaker 2: brave stands on the show, solidly anti murder. Did you 246 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:16,640 Speaker 2: see homers? 247 00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:20,080 Speaker 1: Fox News actually shared from their twenty eight million Twitter 248 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:23,040 Speaker 1: account or whatever, Clay Travis says he hates murder, and 249 00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:25,320 Speaker 1: I was like, finally I'm getting some credit here for 250 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:28,320 Speaker 1: hating murder more than anybody else. That was actually their headline, 251 00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:30,720 Speaker 1: and so I appreciate the praise. 252 00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:33,800 Speaker 2: There something else I want to point out, because we 253 00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:35,520 Speaker 2: were discussing the numbers, we should get into some of 254 00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:38,160 Speaker 2: the numbers, some more on this. And remember, if you're like, well, 255 00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:40,920 Speaker 2: it's our nation's capital, Clay, we don't want to just 256 00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:44,319 Speaker 2: take blue cities and let them rot, sir, whether it's 257 00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:47,080 Speaker 2: New York or DC. We will return to that conversation. 258 00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:48,680 Speaker 2: We want them to be the best they can be. 259 00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 2: And people were saying, oh, well, look at the numbers, 260 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:58,600 Speaker 2: look at the crime it's going down. There's already an indicator, 261 00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:02,200 Speaker 2: a pretty strong one that they're cooking the books, which 262 00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:04,560 Speaker 2: I'll also tell you even without this story, I knew 263 00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:06,880 Speaker 2: this was going on because anyone who lives in DC 264 00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:09,640 Speaker 2: will tell you not safe, Bad things are happening, not safe, 265 00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:13,240 Speaker 2: and the atmosphere there, And this is why Joe Scarborough, 266 00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:17,800 Speaker 2: Joe Scarborough's golf playing friends from the Chevy Chase country 267 00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 2: Club for those who know the DC area, I'm sure 268 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:22,200 Speaker 2: he has a lot of them. A lot of Scarborough 269 00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:26,840 Speaker 2: Watchers live in chevy Chase. They would be very miffed. 270 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:30,280 Speaker 2: You know, Muffy and Buffy would be very upset if 271 00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:32,400 Speaker 2: Joe was saying that it was safe in downtown DC, 272 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:35,040 Speaker 2: because they don't feel safe when they go to Pilate's 273 00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:38,560 Speaker 2: class in downtown. They know that bad things happen there. 274 00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:40,000 Speaker 2: You know, this is a great time to talk to 275 00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:42,440 Speaker 2: you about saber.

Now, mister Attorney. 316 00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:47,120 Speaker 11: General, Well, I don't know if this is a you know, 317 00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:49,760 Speaker 11: uncharted territory for all of us. I don't know exactly 318 00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:52,920 Speaker 11: what to expect, but we are we filed actions in 319 00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:56,720 Speaker 11: both Illinois and California. You know, obviously they can move around, 320 00:16:56,760 --> 00:17:00,520 Speaker 11: but my understanding is many of the Murton Illinois actions 321 00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:04,240 Speaker 11: in that state asking the court there under the full 322 00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:08,000 Speaker 11: faith and credit provision of the US Constitution to honor 323 00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:12,080 Speaker 11: our quorum warrants that were issued by the Speaker of 324 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:14,720 Speaker 11: the House in Texas, So we'll see how that goes. 325 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:19,720 Speaker 11: We're waiting on action there.

And then of course we have our actions 334 00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:54,880 Speaker 11: that relate to fellow or Rourke and his pack and 335 00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:58,439 Speaker 11: trying to hold him in contempt for filing in a 336 00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:01,080 Speaker 11: temporary restraining order.

This has 341 00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:15,080 Speaker 2: happened before, and there are people are saying, oh, this 342 00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:17,800 Speaker 2: is a game that has been played in the past. 343 00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:21,240 Speaker 2: What does the law say about like, where are democrats 344 00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:24,639 Speaker 2: who have fled the state in violation of law? And 345 00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:27,760 Speaker 2: how is this time If this time is different from 346 00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:30,240 Speaker 2: the past, how is it different from when they've tried 347 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:30,760 Speaker 2: this before. 348 00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:33,159 Speaker 11: So you know, they tried it in two thousand and three, 349 00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:36,919 Speaker 11: I was in Texas House, obviously, I was not in 350 00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:39,440 Speaker 11: the Training General's office. In twenty twenty one, it didn't 351 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:42,800 Speaker 11: last very long. This one, we have no idea how 352 00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:46,000 Speaker 11: long it's going to last. So, you know, they're all 353 00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 11: a little different. I think as we've had more experience, 354 00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:50,200 Speaker 11: you know, my office has got more and more creative 355 00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:53,919 Speaker 11: trying to deal with these issues, and so these ideas 356 00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:57,080 Speaker 11: that we're proposing now are just ideas that we've come 357 00:18:57,160 --> 00:19:00,480 Speaker 11: up to be creative. I mean, as I said, they're new. 358 00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:05,440 Speaker 11: There's there's there's no experience really in trying what we're doing. 359 00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:09,119 Speaker 11: And the last two times we just outweighted them and 360 00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:13,400 Speaker 11: the governor. The governors kept calling Governor Perry governor kept 361 00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:14,919 Speaker 11: calling them back, and eventually we got it. 362 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:15,560 Speaker 8: We got it done. 363 00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:18,120 Speaker 11: So you know, I guess we're just a little more 364 00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:21,359 Speaker 11: action oriented and a little more creative this time, trying 365 00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:24,200 Speaker 11: to push the envelope to get them back here sooner 366 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:25,280 Speaker 11: so we can get this done. 367 00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:28,399 Speaker 1: What would you say, And I'm going to get my 368 00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:30,640 Speaker 1: popcorn because I bet the answer is going to be good. 369 00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:36,119 Speaker 1: To people like JB. Pritzker, Governor of Illinois, to uh 370 00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:40,000 Speaker 1: Kathy Hochel, governor of New York, to Gavin Newsom, Governor 371 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:46,119 Speaker 1: of California, who say Texas is effectively destroying democracy by redistricting, 372 00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:47,200 Speaker 1: I would. 373 00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:50,439 Speaker 11: Say they're hypocrips. I mean, they're their own states are 374 00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:53,639 Speaker 11: so Jerrymander. I mean, look at our maps versus their maps. 375 00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:58,000 Speaker 11: It's it's ridiculous to look at Illinois. Massachusetts, you know, 376 00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:01,560 Speaker 11: has zero Republican representative representation in the state that has 377 00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:06,720 Speaker 11: thirty seven percent of Republican Illinois forty has only three 378 00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:08,800 Speaker 11: representative that are Republicans. 379 00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:10,120 Speaker 8: So, I mean, I. 380 00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:12,119 Speaker 11: Don't know how they say it with a straight face, 381 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:15,119 Speaker 11: but they do. Apparently they're really willing to just be 382 00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:18,040 Speaker 11: dishonest because they know they've done it. They've done it 383 00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:21,639 Speaker 11: for decades and they're just appalled that you guys can't 384 00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:22,919 Speaker 11: do what we've done. 385 00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:23,199 Speaker 7: And. 386 00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:28,400 Speaker 11: But yet here we are. You guys in Texas are 387 00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:32,160 Speaker 11: destroying democracy. What we did when we jerrymandered our state 388 00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:33,919 Speaker 11: to almost you know, many of these states have no 389 00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:40,239 Speaker 11: Republican representation. That is not destroying democracy because we're Democrats. 390 00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:42,600 Speaker 2: And so in terms of the law, you're the attorney 391 00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:45,520 Speaker 2: general for the state of Texas. They are are they 392 00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:48,280 Speaker 2: in clear violation? Are they arguing that what they're doing 393 00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:51,960 Speaker 2: is somehow not a violation of Texas statute because the 394 00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:54,320 Speaker 2: way it's no surprise, the way it's talked about in 395 00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:57,640 Speaker 2: the media, they pretend like there's a lot of gray 396 00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:00,280 Speaker 2: area and this is done before and you know, what 397 00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:05,600 Speaker 2: does the law say about their obligation to actually show 398 00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:06,919 Speaker 2: up for a quorum. 399 00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:12,760 Speaker 11: Well, they're obligated under house rules. They're there, they represent 400 00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:16,200 Speaker 11: the people of their area, but they're under the kunder 401 00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:19,080 Speaker 11: obligation of their own rules that they passed to show 402 00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:23,200 Speaker 11: up to vote. And when they don't do that, they 403 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:26,440 Speaker 11: can be held in you know, basically in contempt by 404 00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:29,560 Speaker 11: the film by their own body. So they say that 405 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:32,760 Speaker 11: their own body voted on rules that they were a 406 00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:35,520 Speaker 11: part of, it says exactly the opposite. So they're not 407 00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:38,760 Speaker 11: being honest. They're being very disingenuous. And of course, as 408 00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:42,440 Speaker 11: you're not surprised the mainstream media plays along. 409 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:47,639 Speaker 1: You're also in the midst of running as a Republican 410 00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:50,880 Speaker 1: candidate in the Senate race that will happen next year. 411 00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:55,679 Speaker 1: You're in the in the midst of a lot of 412 00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:59,920 Speaker 1: different things going on. How would you assess that that race, 413 00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:03,639 Speaker 1: and do you think President Trump is likely to weigh 414 00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:05,280 Speaker 1: in in one form or fashion. 415 00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:09,920 Speaker 11: So, I mean, I did my polling before I got in, 416 00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:13,200 Speaker 11: but I used Cruises Polster. I used another polster with it, 417 00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:16,040 Speaker 11: did Trump's polling I did, and I did three polls. 418 00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:18,359 Speaker 11: All of them had me up by at least twenty 419 00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:21,320 Speaker 11: five points. I don't think that's changed much. You know, 420 00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:23,520 Speaker 11: you can have different polsters looking at different things. But 421 00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:27,000 Speaker 11: it was very consistent. And it's based on John Cornyn's 422 00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:29,760 Speaker 11: past twenty three years as a US Center and you can. 423 00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:30,080 Speaker 8: Go back further. 424 00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:31,600 Speaker 11: He's been in office, so I was in college and 425 00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:35,040 Speaker 11: I'm sixty two. He has not represented Texas well. He's 426 00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:38,679 Speaker 11: he's been opposed to President Trump being president both times, 427 00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:42,800 Speaker 11: insinuated that he was guilty of crimes, and now suddenly 428 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:44,960 Speaker 11: in any conversion experience on April Lake when I got 429 00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:47,480 Speaker 11: on the race, and now he loves Trump after hating 430 00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:50,360 Speaker 11: him for the entire time he's been in office. He's 431 00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:52,960 Speaker 11: been opposed to building a wall on the border, which 432 00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:56,399 Speaker 11: most my constituents were disgusted by, and the course President 433 00:22:56,400 --> 00:23:00,280 Speaker 11: Trump had just the opposite view, and he fought with 434 00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:04,680 Speaker 11: Joe Biden to restrict Second Amendment rights, which Texans obviously 435 00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:08,560 Speaker 11: do not want Second Amendment rights restricted, but he don 436 00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:12,560 Speaker 11: Cornyn fought with Biden to make that happen. So if 437 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:15,320 Speaker 11: you look at his record, he has not represented Texas well. 438 00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:18,600 Speaker 11: There's not a distinguishing feature other than he tells us 439 00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:21,320 Speaker 11: now that he's with Trump all of the time. It's 440 00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:23,199 Speaker 11: just not true. It's dishonest. 441 00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:26,800 Speaker 2: You know, we're putting a lot of time and attention, 442 00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:30,480 Speaker 2: mister Attorney General on what's going on in DC now 443 00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:33,359 Speaker 2: with Trump trying to bring the crime numbers down and 444 00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:37,440 Speaker 2: federalizing the Metro Police for a period of time as 445 00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:40,399 Speaker 2: he can under the Home Rule Act of nineteen seventy 446 00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:43,080 Speaker 2: three for the District of Columbia. But we've also raised 447 00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:47,320 Speaker 2: how this could set a precedent, especially if there are 448 00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:49,440 Speaker 2: points on the board, so to speak, if Trump shows 449 00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:53,880 Speaker 2: success here for other law enforcement efforts that would use 450 00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:58,760 Speaker 2: federal partners in conjunction with local law enforcement. And I'm 451 00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:01,880 Speaker 2: wondering if this is something saying that you're already considering 452 00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:03,960 Speaker 2: or are you in the are you in conversation with 453 00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:07,240 Speaker 2: the Trump White House about because you know Houston, I 454 00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:10,160 Speaker 2: have a lot of friends in Houston, a lovely, lovely place, 455 00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:12,359 Speaker 2: but there's some crime there. There's some crime problems, the 456 00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:15,840 Speaker 2: same thing I believe in Dallas in some areas. So 457 00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:18,720 Speaker 2: I'm wondering if this is something that you think could 458 00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:22,159 Speaker 2: be a template in your state or just in general 459 00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:23,120 Speaker 2: across the country. 460 00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:27,639 Speaker 11: No, I think in general it's certainly something given to 461 00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:32,159 Speaker 11: These cities are very liberal. Their district attorneys funded by Soros. 462 00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:35,040 Speaker 11: We have the same problem, and you know Travis County, Austin, 463 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:39,520 Speaker 11: and other major cities in our state, but they won't prosecute, 464 00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:43,200 Speaker 11: and they defund the police and make it very difficult 465 00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:48,240 Speaker 11: for crime to be prosecuted. So I don't know, since 466 00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:51,159 Speaker 11: in my case, the legislature doesn't give authority to the 467 00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:54,480 Speaker 11: Attorney general to prosecute crimes, leaves it up to the 468 00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:57,800 Speaker 11: DA's I think any help we can get from the 469 00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:01,199 Speaker 11: federal government shut down crime and stop the increase that 470 00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:03,600 Speaker 11: we have in our cities that are run by democrats. 471 00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:03,919 Speaker 8: I'm for. 472 00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:10,240 Speaker 1: Ultimately, do you expect, I know the FBI has gotten involved, 473 00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:14,800 Speaker 1: do you expect for there to be any arrest outside 474 00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:17,200 Speaker 1: of state of any of these Texas lawmakers? 475 00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:19,960 Speaker 2: Like what is the rubber meets the road moment. 476 00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:22,720 Speaker 1: Let's at some point the expectation, I think is that 477 00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:25,240 Speaker 1: they can't live outside of the state forever and they'll 478 00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:28,000 Speaker 1: have to return. But while they're out of state, do 479 00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:31,440 Speaker 1: you expect any arrests or any seizures to occur? 480 00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:34,440 Speaker 11: I don't expect. I mean the FBI would have to 481 00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:37,359 Speaker 11: have a federal crime. I don't see them arresting. This 482 00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:39,679 Speaker 11: is not a federal crime. I mean, love it if 483 00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:44,000 Speaker 11: they could get them back somehow. For us, the actions 484 00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:47,960 Speaker 11: that we're taking in Illinois, I think are our best 485 00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:51,479 Speaker 11: shot is getting these states, these courts to recognize our 486 00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:55,560 Speaker 11: laws and help us get them back. Otherwise we're going 487 00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:57,240 Speaker 11: to be in the same situation we've been in the past. 488 00:25:57,240 --> 00:25:59,040 Speaker 11: We just they don't want to They don't want to 489 00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:00,760 Speaker 11: live in Chicago the rest of life and go through 490 00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:03,720 Speaker 11: the winner. They're going to have to come back their families, 491 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:06,800 Speaker 11: and ultimately that has been successful both times. It just 492 00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:09,359 Speaker 11: took longer, and you know, we spend a lot of 493 00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:11,639 Speaker 11: money and waste a lot of time, but ultimately we 494 00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:15,120 Speaker 11: got our registring maps past in the past both times. 495 00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:17,760 Speaker 11: So we're not going to give up. We're just trying 496 00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 11: to expect the process because it's ridiculous that this is 497 00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:21,160 Speaker 11: what we have to go through. 498 00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:24,720 Speaker 1: All right, biggest question right now for you. The last 499 00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:26,720 Speaker 1: time I think, Buck and I saw you in person 500 00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:31,800 Speaker 1: was actually at a Texas Alabama football game down in Austin. 501 00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:36,640 Speaker 1: Within about three weeks, basically one v. Two is going 502 00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:39,399 Speaker 1: to be taking place. The Texas Longhorns have opened as 503 00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:42,080 Speaker 1: the number one team in the country. They're going on 504 00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:45,760 Speaker 1: the road in Columbus, Ohio against the defending national champion 505 00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:48,080 Speaker 1: Ohio State. Buck, guys, what happens? 506 00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:52,440 Speaker 11: You know what, I'm optimistic that Texas will pull it out. 507 00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:54,439 Speaker 11: They've done it before. The last time I went to 508 00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:58,320 Speaker 11: a Texas Ohio State game on the road was when 509 00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:01,200 Speaker 11: Texas won the national championship and they beat Ohio State 510 00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:02,240 Speaker 11: at Ohio State. 511 00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:05,560 Speaker 2: That was Ben's young, right, if I remember correctly, I 512 00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:06,000 Speaker 2: was there. 513 00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:08,640 Speaker 11: I loved it, and no one expected us to win 514 00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:12,680 Speaker 11: that game. But I am predicting we're gonna have a repeat. 515 00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:15,600 Speaker 11: I think it was two thousand and five of the 516 00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:19,760 Speaker 11: Ohio State opening game against Texas, where Texas pulled out 517 00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:20,000 Speaker 11: a win. 518 00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:24,320 Speaker 2: I remember that game like it was yesterday, you know, Bock. 519 00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:26,879 Speaker 1: That led into what I think is the greatest college 520 00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:30,480 Speaker 1: football game of my life, into the year Rose Bowl 521 00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:34,960 Speaker 1: Texas USC the most watched college football game of the 522 00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:38,600 Speaker 1: twenty first century. That I imagine, mister Attorney General, you 523 00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:40,920 Speaker 1: sometimes think about fondly still to this day. 524 00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:42,600 Speaker 8: I do. I was there. 525 00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:45,040 Speaker 11: I literally when the game was over, I thought, this 526 00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:48,240 Speaker 11: is the greatest college game I've ever seen. Almost thought, 527 00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:50,800 Speaker 11: how can I go to another college game after witnessing 528 00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:55,760 Speaker 11: this masterpiece really by both teams.

It was really not good. 671 00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:31,040 Speaker 1: I remember, this is kind of funny date story, not 672 00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:34,080 Speaker 1: for me. I've been married for twenty like five years 673 00:34:34,160 --> 00:34:36,160 Speaker 1: or whatever. The heck it is twenty two years, next year, 674 00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:40,840 Speaker 1: next month, this month, anyway, a long time, twenty one years. 675 00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:45,319 Speaker 1: But I remember a girl being like, yeah, I went 676 00:34:45,360 --> 00:34:47,279 Speaker 1: on a date. She's like, I'm a little We used 677 00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:50,560 Speaker 1: to do I'd do anonymous mailbags at out kick and 678 00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:52,520 Speaker 1: I would answer a lot of questions. Girl was like, yeah, 679 00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:54,600 Speaker 1: I went on a first date. It's like, I just 680 00:34:54,640 --> 00:34:56,120 Speaker 1: I don't really feel like he was into me. And 681 00:34:56,160 --> 00:34:57,920 Speaker 1: I was like, you know in the email, and she 682 00:34:58,040 --> 00:35:01,080 Speaker 1: was like and as evidence of that, she said he 683 00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:05,839 Speaker 1: paid with a gift certificate. And I was like, I 684 00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:08,600 Speaker 1: was like, I'm sorry. Ladies, if you go out to 685 00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:12,440 Speaker 1: dinner with a guy on the very first date and 686 00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:16,520 Speaker 1: he pays with a gift certificate, then he is really 687 00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:19,080 Speaker 1: not that into you because he's not even willing to 688 00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:22,280 Speaker 1: pull out the actual credit card. And it's even funnier 689 00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:24,360 Speaker 1: if it's like, can you just take the twenty. You know, 690 00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:27,120 Speaker 1: it's like a twenty five dollars gift certificate. So you know, 691 00:35:27,400 --> 00:35:30,880 Speaker 1: I'm just telling you, I don't believe maybe there's somebody listening. 692 00:35:31,160 --> 00:35:33,399 Speaker 1: I don't believe there's a single marriage that has ever 693 00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:36,799 Speaker 1: resulted from a first date or a man paid for 694 00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:39,120 Speaker 1: the dinner with a gift certificate, because I think women 695 00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:43,880 Speaker 1: are like, like, look, I mean, I'm not saying that 696 00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:48,360 Speaker 1: I expected the absolute sun of movement stars on the 697 00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:52,319 Speaker 1: first date, but you took me to Applebee's or Outback 698 00:35:52,719 --> 00:35:55,960 Speaker 1: and you whipped out like that the Outback gift certificate 699 00:35:56,040 --> 00:35:58,919 Speaker 1: for the bluemin onion. I'm just not saying that that's 700 00:35:58,960 --> 00:36:00,480 Speaker 1: the guy that you want to spend the rest of 701 00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:02,640 Speaker 1: your life with. Maybe there's somebody out there, if there's 702 00:36:02,719 --> 00:36:05,759 Speaker 1: a single person listening who went out on a first 703 00:36:05,840 --> 00:36:09,359 Speaker 1: date and the guy she's with paid with a gift 704 00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:14,120 Speaker 1: certificate gift card, then then maybe I'm wrong. I don't 705 00:36:14,120 --> 00:36:17,560 Speaker 1: think there's a single relationship that has ever come from 706 00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:21,719 Speaker 1: a first date gift certificate. So, uh, that is my 707 00:36:21,800 --> 00:36:24,160 Speaker 1: advice to men out there that if you're dating a girl, 708 00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:26,279 Speaker 1: or if you're the girl, if he's paying for you 709 00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:29,080 Speaker 1: with a gift certificate. He's not that into you. He 710 00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:32,760 Speaker 1: wasn't even willing to actually use real cash. He's using 711 00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:36,880 Speaker 1: what his mom gave him for Christmas to take you. However, 712 00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:41,279 Speaker 1: bloomin onions still preferable to splitting the check on the 713 00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:43,360 Speaker 1: first date. I will say, so, it's it's a little, 714 00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:46,000 Speaker 1: it's you know, this is in. This is purgatory. This 715 00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:48,080 Speaker 1: is like in between, right. I mean, it's not great, 716 00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:50,719 Speaker 1: but not terrible. Guys, I gotta you gotta pick up 717 00:36:50,719 --> 00:36:52,040 Speaker 1: the even if you don't like her. 718 00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:55,360 Speaker 2: Even if she's a even if she's a Bernie Sanders 719 00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:58,040 Speaker 2: voting purple haired. You didn't know. This is what you 720 00:36:58,080 --> 00:37:00,600 Speaker 2: were getting into date. You pay on the first eight guys, 721 00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:03,319 Speaker 2: don't don't don't make it. We have young we have 722 00:37:03,440 --> 00:37:06,640 Speaker 2: young single men listeners here twenties, thirties, forties, guys were 723 00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:09,080 Speaker 2: single out there. You pay on the first date. Boys, 724 00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:11,319 Speaker 2: I agree that it's just the way it is. There's 725 00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:14,840 Speaker 2: no way fans or butts. All right, Norman in NYC 726 00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:16,239 Speaker 2: wants the way in. What's going on? 727 00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:20,520 Speaker 8: Norman, I'm still laughing about the credit card. The credit 728 00:37:20,520 --> 00:37:21,320 Speaker 8: gift card. 729 00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:21,959 Speaker 2: Gift card. 730 00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:23,880 Speaker 1: You can't do it, Norman. You can't do it. You've 731 00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:26,480 Speaker 1: probably been married for thirty years. But I'm trying to 732 00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:28,520 Speaker 1: help the young men out there. Don't screw this up. 733 00:37:28,640 --> 00:37:32,080 Speaker 8: My god, God was given to him by his mother. 734 00:37:32,239 --> 00:37:34,879 Speaker 1: Oh my god, it's like you got a Christmas gift 735 00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:37,759 Speaker 1: card for the outback steakhouse. You're not even willing to 736 00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:40,120 Speaker 1: take and pay the girls dinner for yourself. Your mom 737 00:37:40,160 --> 00:37:41,120 Speaker 1: and dad are paying for it. 738 00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:42,520 Speaker 2: Just can't do it. 739 00:37:44,160 --> 00:37:47,280 Speaker 8: Oh my god, Oh my god, you got Norman. 740 00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:48,640 Speaker 2: We have to come Do you have to come back 741 00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:51,640 Speaker 2: to Norman? Norman's Norman's Uh, he's tickled over there. 742 00:37:51,800 --> 00:37:55,680 Speaker 8: Let me say this, I think, first and foremost, Washington, 743 00:37:55,800 --> 00:37:59,520 Speaker 8: d C. Should be the safest community on the planet. 744 00:37:59,680 --> 00:38:02,800 Speaker 8: Form That is, where the President of the United States, 745 00:38:03,080 --> 00:38:06,680 Speaker 8: dignitaries come from all over the world. There is no excuses, 746 00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:10,360 Speaker 8: no excuses for one thing to be going wrong in Washington, 747 00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:12,759 Speaker 8: d C. The second thing is I agree with the 748 00:38:12,760 --> 00:38:15,200 Speaker 8: presidents and in the National Guard there, and I think 749 00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:18,719 Speaker 8: that it's important that the mayor takes the pride off 750 00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:22,919 Speaker 8: the shoulder and say I'm getting additional help in the 751 00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:25,680 Speaker 8: mountain in Washington defeat to be able to combat the 752 00:38:25,719 --> 00:38:28,640 Speaker 8: problems that we face. I think that what I would 753 00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:32,040 Speaker 8: do is pair up one law enforcement officer from the 754 00:38:32,120 --> 00:38:36,360 Speaker 8: district with one National guardsman to give it more power, 755 00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:39,800 Speaker 8: to give people more comfortability. The word national Guard is 756 00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:43,960 Speaker 8: scaling people. It's additional law enforcement. New York City talks 757 00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:46,279 Speaker 8: about the fact that we need more police. Well, Hull, 758 00:38:46,480 --> 00:38:50,480 Speaker 8: take the four thousand or five thousand National guardsmen that 759 00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:53,279 Speaker 8: want to be deployed. Give them the opportunity to work 760 00:38:53,280 --> 00:38:54,520 Speaker 8: alongside the police. 761 00:38:54,600 --> 00:38:56,680 Speaker 2: Can Can I point out something as well, Norman. All 762 00:38:56,719 --> 00:38:59,560 Speaker 2: the people that don't totally agree with your sentiments, you're 763 00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:02,560 Speaker 2: all the peace people that are freaking out about Trump 764 00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:05,520 Speaker 2: deploying National Guard to help with law enforcement. They were 765 00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:09,280 Speaker 2: fine with National Guard holding empty M sixteens at airports 766 00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:12,800 Speaker 2: during COVID as if that had anything to do with anything. 767 00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:15,600 Speaker 2: I mean, they just had people standing there with guns 768 00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:18,560 Speaker 2: making you fill out contact tracing forms. What was the 769 00:39:18,640 --> 00:39:22,120 Speaker 2: National Guard gonna do? Hand me some extra cleanexes? It 770 00:39:22,200 --> 00:39:24,520 Speaker 2: was absurd, and they were all fine with that. I 771 00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:26,560 Speaker 2: just want to point out no purpose for them whatsoever 772 00:39:26,640 --> 00:39:29,160 Speaker 2: other than a show of force, because we're all supposed 773 00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:32,240 Speaker 2: to obey and bend the need of fauci a vile third. 774 00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:35,640 Speaker 8: Oh absolutely, and let me see this. Tell a mother 775 00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:39,440 Speaker 8: that lost her child to gun violence that she doesn't 776 00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:42,160 Speaker 8: want more police in the community. Hey man, a father 777 00:39:42,560 --> 00:39:45,280 Speaker 8: that doesn't have one, Come on, man, get with polish. 778 00:39:45,360 --> 00:39:47,840 Speaker 8: Let's do what we gotta do. Yes, we're in untrodded 779 00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:51,160 Speaker 8: territories in some area. But the ship is turning. Let's 780 00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:53,360 Speaker 8: get on board, turn the ship and going in a 781 00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:55,640 Speaker 8: different direction because all of this other stuff from the 782 00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:58,600 Speaker 8: Democrats have not been working. It's just been kicking the 783 00:39:58,680 --> 00:39:59,560 Speaker 8: can down the road. 784 00:40:00,320 --> 00:40:02,759 Speaker 2: That's a great call, Norman. I agree with him. 785 00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:05,160 Speaker 1: And you mentioned this yesterday, Buck, and we'll play a 786 00:40:05,160 --> 00:40:06,839 Speaker 1: cut for you. Maybe in a little bit. We're gonna 787 00:40:06,840 --> 00:40:09,719 Speaker 1: take a couple more calls. But I think Muriel Bowser, 788 00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:13,960 Speaker 1: the mayor of DC, actually agrees with Trump, but politically 789 00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:17,040 Speaker 1: is not able to say that. Listen to her answers 790 00:40:17,080 --> 00:40:19,560 Speaker 1: and how she's trying to thread that fine line. I 791 00:40:19,600 --> 00:40:21,320 Speaker 1: think she welcomes the support. 792 00:40:21,200 --> 00:40:24,400 Speaker 2: She is not. I if this were happening in Chicago, 793 00:40:24,920 --> 00:40:30,239 Speaker 2: Mayor Johnson would be screaming about Nazism and racism and 794 00:40:30,320 --> 00:40:32,960 Speaker 2: Trump as like the head of the KKK. I mean, 795 00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:37,360 Speaker 2: it would be complete meltdown. Okay, complete meltdown. That's not 796 00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:40,520 Speaker 2: what you're getting from Mayor Bowser. She was pretty you know. 797 00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:42,520 Speaker 2: I mean, she's saying, I don't think we need it. 798 00:40:42,560 --> 00:40:44,279 Speaker 2: She's trying to defend her record a little. Maybe we 799 00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:46,240 Speaker 2: should get to some of those get some of those clips. 800 00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:50,680 Speaker 2: She's not she's not coming out swinging hard at Trump 801 00:40:50,760 --> 00:40:53,359 Speaker 2: on these things because I think she wants to leave 802 00:40:53,400 --> 00:40:57,600 Speaker 2: open the possibility of taking credit for it, which if 803 00:40:57,640 --> 00:40:59,800 Speaker 2: it gets better, she'll take a victory lap. And you 804 00:40:59,840 --> 00:41:02,280 Speaker 2: know what if she doesn't stand in the way, fine, 805 00:41:02,520 --> 00:41:04,480 Speaker 2: you know, I mean, as long as it's getting better there, 806 00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:07,480 Speaker 2: because we all know that people will understand that Trump 807 00:41:07,719 --> 00:41:11,160 Speaker 2: was the instigator of these improvements. But yeah, I think 808 00:41:11,200 --> 00:41:14,200 Speaker 2: it's it's very interesting see how that dynamic plays out. 809 00:41:14,239 --> 00:41:19,120 Speaker 2: We've also got here Flora next. Thank you Dave in Florida. 810 00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:21,640 Speaker 12: Yes, hey, listen buck And when when the when the 811 00:41:21,640 --> 00:41:22,279 Speaker 12: bike went dead? 812 00:41:22,280 --> 00:41:22,760 Speaker 8: Who pushed? 813 00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:24,680 Speaker 13: Who taking it back? 814 00:41:25,640 --> 00:41:25,839 Speaker 10: Yeah? 815 00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:28,160 Speaker 1: What happened when the scooter was failing? What did you do? 816 00:41:28,239 --> 00:41:30,040 Speaker 1: Did you like just kick her to the curb and 817 00:41:30,480 --> 00:41:33,880 Speaker 1: ride home? I I I will tell you. 818 00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:36,240 Speaker 2: I called an uber for her to take her home, 819 00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:39,440 Speaker 2: and then I kind of sadly, I didn't really want 820 00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:41,160 Speaker 2: to ride the ride the scooter anymore. I kind of 821 00:41:41,200 --> 00:41:43,160 Speaker 2: walked it home.

The stock 950 00:48:58,560 --> 00:49:02,680 Speaker 1: market has so urged as a result of that report, 951 00:49:02,880 --> 00:49:06,680 Speaker 1: as inflation came in lower than expected for I think 952 00:49:06,719 --> 00:49:09,680 Speaker 1: the fifth month in the last six There has not 953 00:49:09,880 --> 00:49:13,399 Speaker 1: been a major inflation impact at all from so far 954 00:49:13,560 --> 00:49:18,320 Speaker 1: President Trump's tariffs and we have new stock market records 955 00:49:18,840 --> 00:49:22,080 Speaker 1: all over the NASDAC, all over the S and P 956 00:49:22,160 --> 00:49:25,839 Speaker 1: five hundred, the dal Jones Industrial. If you have a 957 00:49:25,880 --> 00:49:29,800 Speaker 1: four to oh one K, your stocks are setting record highs. 958 00:49:29,880 --> 00:49:32,879 Speaker 1: So your retirement is doing very, very well. And I'll 959 00:49:32,920 --> 00:49:37,640 Speaker 1: continue to echo if you were just not a panicker, 960 00:49:38,200 --> 00:49:41,759 Speaker 1: if you did not panic in April when everybody tried 961 00:49:41,800 --> 00:49:43,960 Speaker 1: to tell you, oh my goodness, these tariffs are going 962 00:49:44,040 --> 00:49:48,480 Speaker 1: to destroy the economy, there's no way to continue to 963 00:49:48,520 --> 00:49:52,880 Speaker 1: live this way. It is the case that I believe 964 00:49:52,920 --> 00:49:57,480 Speaker 1: the Trump economy is starting starting to fire on all cylinders. 965 00:49:58,280 --> 00:50:04,200 Speaker 1: Growth in wages is out pacing growth in cost, which 966 00:50:04,239 --> 00:50:07,920 Speaker 1: is the most important I would say measurement economically because 967 00:50:07,960 --> 00:50:09,960 Speaker 1: it means you have more money in your pocket. 968 00:50:10,000 --> 00:50:10,200 Speaker 2: Now. 969 00:50:10,440 --> 00:50:12,200 Speaker 1: I know many of you out there are still very 970 00:50:12,239 --> 00:50:15,880 Speaker 1: frustrated by the price of goods, which skyrocketed during the 971 00:50:15,920 --> 00:50:19,080 Speaker 1: Biden administration when we got to over nine percent inflation. 972 00:50:19,640 --> 00:50:22,080 Speaker 1: I understand when people say, hey, things still feel like 973 00:50:22,120 --> 00:50:26,799 Speaker 1: they cost too much. Unfortunately, inflation is embedded. We very 974 00:50:26,920 --> 00:50:29,520 Speaker 1: rarely ever go backwards in price. So the best thing 975 00:50:29,520 --> 00:50:33,000 Speaker 1: you can hope for is that prices stop growing at 976 00:50:33,040 --> 00:50:37,920 Speaker 1: exponential rates, which is again where we are. We've got 977 00:50:37,960 --> 00:50:39,080 Speaker 1: a bunch of people who want to weigh in a 978 00:50:39,160 --> 00:50:42,160 Speaker 1: variety of topics. Let me hit you with one bit 979 00:50:42,200 --> 00:50:43,880 Speaker 1: of news. I should have hit this last week. I 980 00:50:43,960 --> 00:50:46,479 Speaker 1: kind of missed it. I think it happened Thursday after 981 00:50:46,520 --> 00:50:48,320 Speaker 1: the show. I didn't talk about it on Friday. But 982 00:50:48,400 --> 00:50:53,879 Speaker 1: I think it is an important cultural hallmark here, Gina Carano, Buck, 983 00:50:53,880 --> 00:50:56,640 Speaker 1: did you ever watch The Mandalorian on Disney Plus. 984 00:50:57,040 --> 00:50:59,080 Speaker 2: I thought the first season was excellent and then it 985 00:50:59,200 --> 00:51:04,680 Speaker 2: kind of kind of crashed into the planet Laura. My 986 00:51:04,760 --> 00:51:07,920 Speaker 2: wife watches all these shows, and she watches them generally 987 00:51:08,000 --> 00:51:09,360 Speaker 2: with our boys. 988 00:51:09,719 --> 00:51:13,240 Speaker 1: They loved The Mandalorian. It was a Disney Plus Star 989 00:51:13,320 --> 00:51:18,560 Speaker 1: Wars related show. Disney fired Gina Carano for having very 990 00:51:18,760 --> 00:51:20,680 Speaker 1: what I would say is just a little bit right 991 00:51:20,719 --> 00:51:22,680 Speaker 1: of center opinions on social media. 992 00:51:23,200 --> 00:51:24,880 Speaker 2: She later sued they fired. 993 00:51:24,600 --> 00:51:29,360 Speaker 1: Her in twenty twenty one Friday last week, they Disney 994 00:51:29,440 --> 00:51:32,759 Speaker 1: apologized to her and basically said, hey, we're going to 995 00:51:32,840 --> 00:51:36,200 Speaker 1: rehire you. We talk about these things because I do 996 00:51:36,239 --> 00:51:40,080 Speaker 1: think the cultural significance of them is becoming more and 997 00:51:40,160 --> 00:51:43,160 Speaker 1: more paramount. And Buck, I'll add this. I saw this 998 00:51:43,280 --> 00:51:48,920 Speaker 1: story up at Mediaite and also up at OutKick Sidney Sweeney, 999 00:51:49,040 --> 00:51:51,720 Speaker 1: the ad that was so controversial. We were all told 1000 00:51:52,400 --> 00:51:58,880 Speaker 1: only twelve percent of Americans, according to a big poll 1001 00:51:59,440 --> 00:52:02,360 Speaker 1: that was Conde Duck, did actually found this ad in 1002 00:52:02,400 --> 00:52:06,640 Speaker 1: any way offensive. Forty percent thought that it was a 1003 00:52:06,760 --> 00:52:09,359 Speaker 1: very successful ad. A lot of other people didn't care 1004 00:52:09,400 --> 00:52:12,520 Speaker 1: at all, one way or the other. But it is 1005 00:52:12,880 --> 00:52:16,600 Speaker 1: interesting how the left wing I think their ability to 1006 00:52:16,760 --> 00:52:21,040 Speaker 1: bully and try to force people not to, not to 1007 00:52:21,040 --> 00:52:23,560 Speaker 1: be able to say, hey, you know, being a white 1008 00:52:23,560 --> 00:52:26,840 Speaker 1: girl with blue eyes and blonde hair is a perfectly 1009 00:52:26,880 --> 00:52:30,680 Speaker 1: fine advertisement. The way that they ran and hid from 1010 00:52:30,680 --> 00:52:34,239 Speaker 1: this and tried to they've gotten used to being able 1011 00:52:34,280 --> 00:52:37,160 Speaker 1: to bully people into apologizing and not doing ads like this. 1012 00:52:37,719 --> 00:52:40,600 Speaker 1: I do think the best advice I have for anyone 1013 00:52:40,640 --> 00:52:44,400 Speaker 1: out there is do the opposite of what's popular on Twitter, 1014 00:52:44,960 --> 00:52:48,279 Speaker 1: and very often your business will thrive because Twitter is 1015 00:52:48,320 --> 00:52:51,439 Speaker 1: not real life, and I think this is yet more 1016 00:52:51,480 --> 00:52:55,680 Speaker 1: evidence of that being true. Well Twitch acts now it's 1017 00:52:55,719 --> 00:52:58,799 Speaker 1: a lot more reflective of real life than it used 1018 00:52:58,800 --> 00:52:59,000 Speaker 1: to be. 1019 00:53:00,320 --> 00:53:04,040 Speaker 2: Remember it, it's funny. Ever since the social justice Communists 1020 00:53:04,680 --> 00:53:08,680 Speaker 2: were kicked out of there by Elon, I never get dragged. 1021 00:53:08,760 --> 00:53:12,600 Speaker 2: They used to call it piled on publicly by you know, 1022 00:53:12,680 --> 00:53:15,840 Speaker 2: some some random writers from vox or something. You know, 1023 00:53:15,880 --> 00:53:18,480 Speaker 2: this just doesn't happen anymore. Yes, And I think there 1024 00:53:18,520 --> 00:53:22,279 Speaker 2: was a tremendous amount of both suppression and amplification in 1025 00:53:22,360 --> 00:53:26,040 Speaker 2: favor of communist madness. I know, well we know there was. 1026 00:53:26,080 --> 00:53:28,120 Speaker 2: I mean we that's Elon bought it and we saw 1027 00:53:28,160 --> 00:53:31,080 Speaker 2: that and that was real. Uh yeah, they're they're honestly, 1028 00:53:31,520 --> 00:53:34,760 Speaker 2: so many of these people who a decade ago loved 1029 00:53:34,760 --> 00:53:37,560 Speaker 2: to be all tough on Twitter, they're all they're all 1030 00:53:37,640 --> 00:53:41,160 Speaker 2: leftist cowards. They don't they don't pick fights anymore. They 1031 00:53:41,200 --> 00:53:44,120 Speaker 2: don't want to because they know now that they don't 1032 00:53:44,160 --> 00:53:47,440 Speaker 2: have the rigged game in effect. So I'm very grateful 1033 00:53:47,480 --> 00:53:48,720 Speaker 2: that that that has changed. 1034 00:53:50,280 --> 00:53:52,080 Speaker 1: Let me play a couple of clips for you that 1035 00:53:52,160 --> 00:53:57,440 Speaker 1: are starting to to echo throughout the internet ecosystem. The 1036 00:53:57,600 --> 00:54:01,520 Speaker 1: chief of police for the police for DC, they had 1037 00:54:01,520 --> 00:54:05,840 Speaker 1: a press conference. Mayor Muriel Bowser was also there. The 1038 00:54:05,920 --> 00:54:10,840 Speaker 1: chief of police had absolutely no idea what the phrase 1039 00:54:11,160 --> 00:54:15,320 Speaker 1: chain of command was and uh and and had listen. 1040 00:54:15,440 --> 00:54:17,399 Speaker 1: Just listen to this clip and think to yourself, does 1041 00:54:17,440 --> 00:54:19,600 Speaker 1: this sound like a person who should be in charge 1042 00:54:19,640 --> 00:54:22,640 Speaker 1: of keeping people safe in DC. The mayor then has 1043 00:54:22,680 --> 00:54:24,680 Speaker 1: to step in, and I think it's evidence of what 1044 00:54:24,719 --> 00:54:27,319 Speaker 1: we have kind of told you, which is, I think 1045 00:54:27,360 --> 00:54:32,040 Speaker 1: the mayor does want additional resources politically, it's just hard 1046 00:54:32,080 --> 00:54:35,080 Speaker 1: for her to endorse the decision made by Donald Trump. 1047 00:54:35,280 --> 00:54:38,160 Speaker 2: But listen to this clip. Is what the share of 1048 00:54:38,200 --> 00:54:38,799 Speaker 2: command is? 1049 00:54:38,840 --> 00:54:39,000 Speaker 10: Now? 1050 00:54:39,880 --> 00:54:40,520 Speaker 5: What does that mean? 1051 00:54:40,640 --> 00:54:40,799 Speaker 10: Well? 1052 00:54:40,960 --> 00:54:44,359 Speaker 2: Is it cam Bondi speak of Amy does so? 1053 00:54:44,760 --> 00:54:44,880 Speaker 8: At? 1054 00:54:44,880 --> 00:54:51,000 Speaker 4: The executive order is clear the President has requested MPD services, 1055 00:54:51,040 --> 00:54:56,600 Speaker 4: and our Home Rule Charter outlines the process. The President 1056 00:54:56,719 --> 00:55:03,600 Speaker 4: designated Attorney General Bondi as his proxy to request services 1057 00:55:03,640 --> 00:55:03,880 Speaker 4: through me. 1058 00:55:05,520 --> 00:55:07,360 Speaker 2: Okay, so I know that's a little bit confusing. The 1059 00:55:07,440 --> 00:55:08,520 Speaker 2: video makes it easier. 1060 00:55:08,880 --> 00:55:11,160 Speaker 1: The chief of police did not seem to understand the 1061 00:55:11,160 --> 00:55:14,400 Speaker 1: concept of chain of command, and so she had to 1062 00:55:14,440 --> 00:55:16,560 Speaker 1: step back, and then the mayor came in and kind 1063 00:55:16,600 --> 00:55:19,400 Speaker 1: of explained how this was laying out, which is, the 1064 00:55:19,440 --> 00:55:22,040 Speaker 1: President is at the top of the chain of command 1065 00:55:22,160 --> 00:55:26,480 Speaker 1: in DC as it pertains to it's a federal leadership there, 1066 00:55:26,880 --> 00:55:30,000 Speaker 1: which I do think is kind of important. 1067 00:55:30,480 --> 00:55:30,879 Speaker 2: All Right. 1068 00:55:30,960 --> 00:55:32,680 Speaker 1: I wanted to play this for you, Buck, because you 1069 00:55:32,760 --> 00:55:34,680 Speaker 1: just came back from New York City recently. You were 1070 00:55:34,760 --> 00:55:36,440 Speaker 1: up there with your family. You're born and raised New 1071 00:55:36,520 --> 00:55:39,480 Speaker 1: York City. George will I think he's still at the 1072 00:55:39,520 --> 00:55:43,000 Speaker 1: Washington Post, one of the foremost conservative columnists of the 1073 00:55:43,080 --> 00:55:48,279 Speaker 1: last forty years, probably was on with Bill Maher and 1074 00:55:48,920 --> 00:55:52,279 Speaker 1: he said the same thing that I said recently, which is, 1075 00:55:52,760 --> 00:55:56,080 Speaker 1: sometimes you just have to let democrats deal with the 1076 00:55:56,080 --> 00:56:00,880 Speaker 1: consequences of their choices. And so this argument is starting 1077 00:56:00,920 --> 00:56:02,879 Speaker 1: to spread a little bit. And I want to get 1078 00:56:02,880 --> 00:56:04,520 Speaker 1: your take, because I don't know that you've talked about 1079 00:56:04,520 --> 00:56:06,799 Speaker 1: what you saw in New York City and how the 1080 00:56:06,840 --> 00:56:07,440 Speaker 1: city felt. 1081 00:56:07,480 --> 00:56:08,279 Speaker 2: But listen to this. 1082 00:56:08,680 --> 00:56:12,440 Speaker 14: Here you have Trump, who is the Republican who is 1083 00:56:13,480 --> 00:56:16,520 Speaker 14: aggrandizing more power than anybody, as we just talked about. 1084 00:56:16,760 --> 00:56:19,200 Speaker 14: And on the other side, you have the guy running 1085 00:56:19,200 --> 00:56:23,320 Speaker 14: in New York Mandani, right, okay, who's like a straight 1086 00:56:23,400 --> 00:56:26,600 Speaker 14: up communist. I mean he is. He talks about, you know, 1087 00:56:27,120 --> 00:56:29,880 Speaker 14: the things that communists say. I mean, he wants free 1088 00:56:29,960 --> 00:56:32,120 Speaker 14: grocery stores, free buses. 1089 00:56:32,280 --> 00:56:33,080 Speaker 8: I want him to win. 1090 00:56:33,600 --> 00:56:36,640 Speaker 14: You want him to win? Yeah, I think every twenty 1091 00:56:36,719 --> 00:56:38,520 Speaker 14: years or so, Wait, we need. 1092 00:56:41,040 --> 00:56:45,040 Speaker 10: Every twenty years or so, we need a conspicuous, confined 1093 00:56:46,000 --> 00:56:49,120 Speaker 10: experiment with socialism so we can crack it up again. 1094 00:56:50,680 --> 00:56:54,480 Speaker 1: Okay, Buck, you were just in New York City. It 1095 00:56:54,560 --> 00:56:57,920 Speaker 1: seems like there's sort of a slow moving panic setting 1096 00:56:58,040 --> 00:57:01,279 Speaker 1: in because Mom Donnie is remaining in the lead even 1097 00:57:01,320 --> 00:57:06,560 Speaker 1: though he's clearly got communist opinions. Neither Cuomo, Eric Adams 1098 00:57:06,600 --> 00:57:08,960 Speaker 1: nor Curtis Sleewa has been able to say, Hey, this 1099 00:57:09,080 --> 00:57:12,240 Speaker 1: is going to be the primary adversary. What's the vibe 1100 00:57:12,239 --> 00:57:14,560 Speaker 1: there so far as you could tell, And what do 1101 00:57:14,600 --> 00:57:15,840 Speaker 1: you think of George Well's argument? 1102 00:57:17,200 --> 00:57:24,120 Speaker 2: Well, the vibe is the slow growth of the Pannikin mindset. 1103 00:57:24,200 --> 00:57:28,240 Speaker 2: I think that Mamdanie is gonna win, yes, because the 1104 00:57:28,360 --> 00:57:32,439 Speaker 2: alternatives to him, none of them are good, and they're 1105 00:57:32,440 --> 00:57:35,480 Speaker 2: all very good at canceling each other out. And I 1106 00:57:35,520 --> 00:57:38,520 Speaker 2: know it. Please don't send me the Curtis Sliwa Curtis. 1107 00:57:38,560 --> 00:57:40,880 Speaker 2: I'm sure Curtis is a great guy. I've interviewed him before. 1108 00:57:40,960 --> 00:57:42,680 Speaker 2: He's not going to be the mayor of New York City. Okay, 1109 00:57:42,680 --> 00:57:45,280 Speaker 2: It's just not gonna happen. So I wish that was 1110 00:57:45,320 --> 00:57:47,480 Speaker 2: not the case. But this is a bit like when 1111 00:57:47,520 --> 00:57:50,560 Speaker 2: libertarians once every four years send me the our candidate's 1112 00:57:50,600 --> 00:57:53,240 Speaker 2: gonna win the presidency. No, he's not Okay, it's not 1113 00:57:53,240 --> 00:57:57,280 Speaker 2: gonna happen, so please don't send me those emails. And 1114 00:57:58,320 --> 00:58:02,960 Speaker 2: I think that unfortunately, mom, Donny's gonna be the mayor, 1115 00:58:03,240 --> 00:58:06,840 Speaker 2: and that's gonna result in some real problems for the city. 1116 00:58:07,240 --> 00:58:12,280 Speaker 2: As for George Will, I mean, look, I cannot abide 1117 00:58:12,760 --> 00:58:15,840 Speaker 2: what is still my hometown, and I cannot abide the 1118 00:58:15,920 --> 00:58:19,160 Speaker 2: largest city in America being burned down as some kind 1119 00:58:19,200 --> 00:58:22,440 Speaker 2: of a message because the communists never get the message. 1120 00:58:22,480 --> 00:58:25,560 Speaker 2: It's not like they're gonna learn. It's a bit like 1121 00:58:25,600 --> 00:58:28,080 Speaker 2: dealing with children, Clay, when you have to tell them, 1122 00:58:28,320 --> 00:58:30,959 Speaker 2: you know what, you can't actually just have like ice 1123 00:58:31,000 --> 00:58:34,320 Speaker 2: cream and pizza every night for dinner, and you're gonna 1124 00:58:34,360 --> 00:58:36,920 Speaker 2: eat good food. Like we just have to be in charge, 1125 00:58:37,200 --> 00:58:39,200 Speaker 2: and the leftists have to not be in charge. They 1126 00:58:39,240 --> 00:58:42,440 Speaker 2: never learn the lesson. They will keep burning their hand 1127 00:58:42,880 --> 00:58:45,440 Speaker 2: touching the stove when it's hot. They never learn the lesson. 1128 00:58:45,520 --> 00:58:47,440 Speaker 2: So I disagree with George, who, by the way, lives 1129 00:58:47,480 --> 00:58:50,360 Speaker 2: in Chevy Chase talking about Chevy Chase before. So he 1130 00:58:50,440 --> 00:58:54,440 Speaker 2: lives in a very rich, very affluent suburb of DC, 1131 00:58:55,080 --> 00:58:57,400 Speaker 2: and it's easy for him with a little bow tie 1132 00:58:57,440 --> 00:59:00,600 Speaker 2: on who's been wrong about everything Trump related. I might add, 1133 00:59:00,640 --> 00:59:05,160 Speaker 2: he's been one of those, one of those, and you 1134 00:59:05,200 --> 00:59:07,600 Speaker 2: know Trump wouldn't get into his country club, I'm sure. 1135 00:59:07,960 --> 00:59:10,600 Speaker 2: But you know it's it's I think that it's a 1136 00:59:10,600 --> 00:59:15,800 Speaker 2: bad it's a bad idea because the lessons aren't learned. 1137 00:59:15,840 --> 00:59:19,120 Speaker 2: I mean, look at look at San Francisco. They dial 1138 00:59:19,160 --> 00:59:20,800 Speaker 2: it back a little bit, but it's not like the 1139 00:59:20,840 --> 00:59:23,840 Speaker 2: Democrats have said, you know what, San Francisco governance was 1140 00:59:23,840 --> 00:59:25,920 Speaker 2: a bad idea. We're going to change our we now. 1141 00:59:26,440 --> 00:59:28,840 Speaker 2: The communist never gets tired of being a communist because 1142 00:59:28,840 --> 00:59:31,000 Speaker 2: it's not about what is, It's about what makes them feel. 1143 00:59:31,760 --> 00:59:33,960 Speaker 2: And that's why I think New York City has a lesson. 1144 00:59:34,200 --> 00:59:37,280 Speaker 2: Very easy for George Will to say, but I don't 1145 00:59:37,280 --> 00:59:39,160 Speaker 2: think New York City has a lesson will actually have 1146 00:59:39,200 --> 00:59:41,720 Speaker 2: the intended result. I'd rather us just move in the 1147 00:59:41,760 --> 00:59:45,200 Speaker 2: other direction and get points on the board, right, you know, 1148 00:59:45,240 --> 00:59:47,120 Speaker 2: because because I don't, I don't think his thing about 1149 00:59:47,120 --> 00:59:49,480 Speaker 2: it being an example is true. It'd be one thing 1150 00:59:49,520 --> 00:59:51,080 Speaker 2: if it actually was going to be. Oh, the whole 1151 00:59:51,080 --> 00:59:53,280 Speaker 2: country will learn. You know what happened in New York City. 1152 00:59:53,520 --> 00:59:57,080 Speaker 2: Giuliani came in and fixed the city that was the 1153 00:59:57,160 --> 01:00:02,280 Speaker 2: lesson they didn't learn from previous Democrat hellscape experiments in 1154 01:00:02,280 --> 01:00:05,160 Speaker 2: New York did learn from Dinkins and and Koch and 1155 01:00:05,200 --> 01:00:08,120 Speaker 2: you know, YadA YadA, go back. So you want victory, 1156 01:00:08,160 --> 01:00:10,320 Speaker 2: you don't want defeat. Defeat is not a good teacher, 1157 01:00:10,400 --> 01:00:14,320 Speaker 2: unfortunately in this case. In general, it can be. 1158 01:00:14,400 --> 01:00:17,000 Speaker 1: But my only argument is I think it makes it 1159 01:00:17,120 --> 01:00:20,080 Speaker 1: more likely that we win the House if people like Mom, 1160 01:00:20,160 --> 01:00:23,560 Speaker 1: Donnie and AOC are the face of the Democrat Party 1161 01:00:23,800 --> 01:00:27,680 Speaker 1: by twenty twenty six. So I this is my argument. 1162 01:00:27,760 --> 01:00:31,200 Speaker 1: Will did not make it thoroughly, but that we sometimes 1163 01:00:31,240 --> 01:00:34,400 Speaker 1: have to sacrifice, uh the you know, the tigers are 1164 01:00:34,440 --> 01:00:36,400 Speaker 1: running out there, and you got to outrun the tiger. 1165 01:00:36,520 --> 01:00:39,120 Speaker 2: And I don't think see I think that Mam Donnie 1166 01:00:39,160 --> 01:00:41,560 Speaker 2: would maybe this will help you, which could be important. 1167 01:00:41,560 --> 01:00:44,000 Speaker 2: Maybe this will help you with some New York State 1168 01:00:44,120 --> 01:00:47,840 Speaker 2: congressional seats. I don't I don't think that in purple 1169 01:00:47,880 --> 01:00:50,680 Speaker 2: states you're gonna there's not gonna be some Mam Donnie 1170 01:00:50,680 --> 01:00:52,520 Speaker 2: effect of people who live in like the. 1171 01:00:52,680 --> 01:00:55,280 Speaker 1: He's not well enough known in your mind for people 1172 01:00:55,360 --> 01:00:57,720 Speaker 1: to even react to it, and people want people in 1173 01:00:57,720 --> 01:00:59,440 Speaker 1: the rest of the country aren't going to care about 1174 01:00:59,840 --> 01:01:01,560 Speaker 1: what but the mayor of New York is doing when 1175 01:01:01,560 --> 01:01:05,280 Speaker 1: they're voting for Congress. I don't think so in that sense, 1176 01:01:05,280 --> 01:01:06,720 Speaker 1: I don't see. And also he just doesn't have the 1177 01:01:06,800 --> 01:01:12,320 Speaker 1: national profile, you know, a AOC and Bernie. It's funny, 1178 01:01:12,320 --> 01:01:14,360 Speaker 1: they are still the biggest draw that the Democrats have. 1179 01:01:15,040 --> 01:01:18,000 Speaker 1: But I wonder if they really are going to have 1180 01:01:18,480 --> 01:01:20,760 Speaker 1: the negative effects on Democrats in the midterms that people 1181 01:01:20,760 --> 01:01:21,400 Speaker 1: would like to see. 1182 01:01:21,400 --> 01:01:25,880 Speaker 2: I'm curious. I'm curious about it. But yeah, George Will, 1183 01:01:26,400 --> 01:01:29,640 Speaker 2: George Will, George Will could use little dose of humility. 1184 01:01:29,680 --> 01:01:32,760 Speaker 2: I think you know, George Will writing for that Washington 1185 01:01:32,760 --> 01:01:36,200 Speaker 2: Post communist slop for a long time, being all smug 1186 01:01:36,240 --> 01:01:38,880 Speaker 2: with his little bow tie on. You know, you know what, buddy, 1187 01:01:39,880 --> 01:01:41,600 Speaker 2: you know back of the room. You know, I know 1188 01:01:41,600 --> 01:01:43,040 Speaker 2: you're an old guy, but back of the room, you 1189 01:01:43,080 --> 01:01:46,280 Speaker 2: got some things to learn. I'm I'm not impressed. So, 1190 01:01:46,520 --> 01:01:49,080 Speaker 2: you know, wrong on everything Trump related, just because they 1191 01:01:49,280 --> 01:01:52,440 Speaker 2: just just as dug in on Trump and as anti 1192 01:01:52,520 --> 01:01:56,400 Speaker 2: Trump as anyone can be. And for what? For what? 1193 01:01:56,560 --> 01:01:58,240 Speaker 2: So the communists can run amok, so we can all 1194 01:01:58,320 --> 01:02:01,520 Speaker 2: learn a lesson. While George is a playing croquet, sorry, 1195 01:02:01,720 --> 01:02:04,720 Speaker 2: not a fan all right. Because of you and so 1196 01:02:04,760 --> 01:02:07,200 Speaker 2: many other generous people like you, Preborn has rescued over 1197 01:02:07,280 --> 01:02:10,720 Speaker 2: thirty eight thousand unborn babies this year alone.
