1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,280 Speaker 1: And third hour up and running on the Clay and 2 00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:05,520 Speaker 1: Buck Show. My thanks to everybody working behind the scenes 3 00:00:05,559 --> 00:00:07,880 Speaker 1: to make this run as smoothly as possible. As also 4 00:00:07,960 --> 00:00:11,800 Speaker 1: to Devin Nunez, you know he's he was a guy 5 00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:13,440 Speaker 1: that was right in the middle of this. And it's 6 00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:17,200 Speaker 1: not just with regard to the Russian collusion scandal, not 7 00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:21,279 Speaker 1: just the FBI. You had intelligence agencies in on this. 8 00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:24,200 Speaker 1: When Obama was briefed about it all I think it 9 00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:26,600 Speaker 1: was Brennan or Clapper, both were in on that. One 10 00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:30,760 Speaker 1: of them was we have soapul and you know, the 11 00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:35,360 Speaker 1: Hunter Biden laptop comes out in fifty one. National intelligence 12 00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:39,120 Speaker 1: officials say it's Russian disinformation. So the corruption of our 13 00:00:39,159 --> 00:00:43,200 Speaker 1: institutions doesn't stop it at the DOJ's FBI, it goes 14 00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:47,000 Speaker 1: into intel as well. There are even some people saying, 15 00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:49,880 Speaker 1: you know, we may want to think about going back 16 00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:53,320 Speaker 1: to the PRECIA, to concentrating that much power in an 17 00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:56,960 Speaker 1: intelligence agency and then giving them face of powers in 18 00:00:57,040 --> 00:01:00,840 Speaker 1: a secret court. The Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act powers to 19 00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:04,360 Speaker 1: go with a lower probable cause burden and get wire 20 00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:07,759 Speaker 1: taps on Americans without anybody knowing it. He has a 21 00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:13,720 Speaker 1: recipe for well what we saw. It's so bizarre you 22 00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:18,040 Speaker 1: wouldn't believe it if you made it a movie. You 23 00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:22,319 Speaker 1: had you know, GP Fusion, GPS and Christopher Steele talking 24 00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:25,720 Speaker 1: with the Russian contacts, and then you had Perkinsky financing 25 00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:28,680 Speaker 1: this and the Hillary and DNC, and then they leak 26 00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:32,800 Speaker 1: Russian dossier information to the media. Then they use those 27 00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:35,200 Speaker 1: media leaks to get a warrant to spy on the 28 00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:39,040 Speaker 1: Trump campaign, and then they have a media narrative buttressed 29 00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:43,280 Speaker 1: by social media for two years, three years, four years 30 00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:47,280 Speaker 1: saying Trump's a Russian asset, all of it, and CNN 31 00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:50,960 Speaker 1: and MSNBC and NBC and Fox or not. Well, Fox 32 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:53,000 Speaker 1: was the only one telling the truth or trying to 33 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:56,280 Speaker 1: get the truth out. That's why they're hated, That's why 34 00:01:56,280 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 1: I Talk Radio's hated. But the Democrat media complex liberately 35 00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:05,880 Speaker 1: lied about this, deliberately lied about it. It was the 36 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:10,200 Speaker 1: true attempt at overthrowing an election, done with a coup 37 00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 1: inside the bowels of the bureaucracy. And now we know 38 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:18,799 Speaker 1: how complicit the state actors and social media were on this. 39 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:22,200 Speaker 1: We're still waiting for a Durham victory on it. We're 40 00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:24,520 Speaker 1: not going to get it in the district to Columbia courts. 41 00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:29,240 Speaker 1: That's for certain that that's the frustrating thing. Really, when 42 00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:32,440 Speaker 1: when do the people that engineered the real coup get 43 00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:38,720 Speaker 1: their comeuppants Lisa Page or I should say Page and 44 00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:43,680 Speaker 1: Struck and the rest of the gang there. It's so 45 00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:51,920 Speaker 1: bizarre and such a an assault on fundamental liberties that 46 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:56,200 Speaker 1: it's almost hard to fathom. And the reason more people 47 00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:59,120 Speaker 1: don't fathom it is because they're not being told the truth. 48 00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:03,920 Speaker 1: And that's why the Twitter files are so important to 49 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 1: get to the truth. And now the latest dump, I 50 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:12,400 Speaker 1: think it came yesterday or the day before, was on 51 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:16,480 Speaker 1: all the COVID misinformation. Now some of us knew this. 52 00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:18,919 Speaker 1: When I was running for the US Senate in twenty twenty, 53 00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:21,560 Speaker 1: we defied the lockdowns and then I ended up suing 54 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:25,519 Speaker 1: the governor over the lockdowns because they were patently unconstitutional 55 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 1: in so many ways. You had the Democrat media complex 56 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:34,519 Speaker 1: exploiting a public health challenge to lock down their opponents, 57 00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:40,360 Speaker 1: make people muzzle up, give them the jab and use 58 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:43,160 Speaker 1: it to rewrite election law. Oh and by the way, 59 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:46,080 Speaker 1: along the way, we destroyed an entire generation of children. 60 00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 1: A couple of Stanford researchers I believe in inga was 61 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:56,640 Speaker 1: One Stanford University economist said that the learning loss coming 62 00:03:56,680 --> 00:04:01,119 Speaker 1: from the COVID school lockdowns could shape seventy thousand dollars off. 63 00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 1: According to this Wall Street Journal article, seventy thousand dollars 64 00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 1: off while the lifetime earnings of a child that is 65 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:11,800 Speaker 1: so far behind. Thanks to the teachers' unions who wanted 66 00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:15,520 Speaker 1: to keep the lockdowns going, and naturally, since they financed 67 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:18,520 Speaker 1: the Democrat Party, the lockdowns were kept going. So get this. 68 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 1: We were infecting seniors from New York to Minnesota by 69 00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:28,279 Speaker 1: putting COVID positive patients in nursing homes or congregated living centers, 70 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 1: and we were locking down the young and the healthy 71 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 1: when they should have been at school. Literally everything we 72 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,760 Speaker 1: prescribed in this public health challenge, and that's what it was. 73 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 1: It was never going to be the end of the world, 74 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:47,360 Speaker 1: now standing the tragedy of people who were susceptible to this, 75 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:52,720 Speaker 1: but that doesn't include the young. Every prescription coming from 76 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:55,119 Speaker 1: the authorities and social media, it turned out to be wrong. 77 00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 1: The origin of COVID, we now know it came out 78 00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:01,600 Speaker 1: of a lab, just as some of us suspected it 79 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:08,360 Speaker 1: was not zootonic, it was not coming from bats. It 80 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:14,719 Speaker 1: was the Chinese, either deliberately or accidentally releasing this virus. 81 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:17,160 Speaker 1: And what are they doing messing with this stuff? What 82 00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:19,280 Speaker 1: is this gain of function stuff? Oh, we were led 83 00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:23,280 Speaker 1: about that too. And then it was at first you 84 00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 1: don't need to wear a mask because masks aren't effective. 85 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:28,159 Speaker 1: Then it was everybody muzzle up and shut up, and 86 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:30,159 Speaker 1: if you don't, we'll have a Karen in the grocery 87 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:33,479 Speaker 1: store lecture you until you do. Then it was the 88 00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:36,600 Speaker 1: vaccines were not only perfect, but they were going to 89 00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:41,480 Speaker 1: stop the virus. Then it was lockdown's work. When in fact, 90 00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:45,400 Speaker 1: abroad we had a number of examples were locking It 91 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 1: was countries that did not engage in the lockdown had 92 00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:50,600 Speaker 1: no difference in the rates of transmission. This virus is 93 00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:54,800 Speaker 1: going to run its course regardless. I mean, you could 94 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:58,000 Speaker 1: go right down the list. They exploited a public health 95 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:03,040 Speaker 1: challenge for political gain, period. And if they were really 96 00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:06,840 Speaker 1: concerned about it, really concerned about the virus and it 97 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:10,320 Speaker 1: was as deadly for everyone, not just the elderly or 98 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:14,479 Speaker 1: people with diabetes or respiratory problems, but for everyone, then 99 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:16,719 Speaker 1: why it would have been an act of war. It 100 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:18,839 Speaker 1: would have been biowarfare. But yet, oh no, we can't 101 00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:22,040 Speaker 1: blame China. No, it was accidental. Gotta keep working with them, 102 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:26,480 Speaker 1: the who keep working with them, and the models, Every 103 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:32,360 Speaker 1: single epidemiological model was off exponentially. It was a joke. 104 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:37,560 Speaker 1: It was a joke, how bad they were. And they're 105 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:40,000 Speaker 1: still clinging to it. And this is the power of 106 00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:44,920 Speaker 1: gas lighting and the censorship that's going on in social media. 107 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 1: There were a number of people who keep saying, well 108 00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:51,479 Speaker 1: who did say, They're not talking about it now because 109 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 1: everybody that's gotten the vaccine seems to get COVID again. Well, 110 00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:00,040 Speaker 1: listen to this montage of media and government of s 111 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 1: on the vaccine. These vaccines work well against this virus. 112 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:07,719 Speaker 1: Vaccinated people do not carry the virus, don't get sick. 113 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 1: Now we know that the vaccines work well enough that 114 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:16,000 Speaker 1: the virus stops with every vaccinated person. A vaccinated person 115 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:19,600 Speaker 1: gets exposed to the virus, the virus does not infect them. 116 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:22,840 Speaker 1: The virus cannot then use that person to go anywhere else. 117 00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:27,520 Speaker 1: That means the vaccines will get us to the end 118 00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:31,560 Speaker 1: of this. These are the people that told you about 119 00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:35,160 Speaker 1: Russian collusion. These are the people that told you there's 120 00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 1: nothing to Hunter Biden's laptop. These are the people that 121 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:42,600 Speaker 1: told you voting early before John Fetterman ever takes the 122 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 1: debate stage is a good idea, and voting by mail 123 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:48,640 Speaker 1: there can't be any ballot harvesting there. You've only got 124 00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:51,120 Speaker 1: eight weeks instead of one day to go around and 125 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:59,440 Speaker 1: collect ballots and submit them. So imagine my surprise when 126 00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:01,360 Speaker 1: I open the Wall Street Journal the other day and 127 00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:07,320 Speaker 1: guess who's got the op ed last Friday? Zeke Emmanuel. 128 00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:11,240 Speaker 1: You know who he is. He was on the Biden 129 00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:17,120 Speaker 1: transition Healthcare COVID task force, member, leading the charge for lockdowns, 130 00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:23,400 Speaker 1: leading the charge for masks, leading the charge for vaccines, 131 00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:27,760 Speaker 1: you name it. And now he's saying China's letter rip 132 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:31,520 Speaker 1: COVID reopening is a danger to the world. Well, let's 133 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,680 Speaker 1: do the Trump travel ban again. Well we can't go 134 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:37,400 Speaker 1: that far, can't we. These are the people that have 135 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:41,720 Speaker 1: been not only wrong but deliberately wrong on everything, whether 136 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:45,520 Speaker 1: it's Fauci, Ulsterholm or Emmanuel, And yet they're getting op 137 00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:49,480 Speaker 1: eds in the Wall Street Journal. What the hell? No 138 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:56,400 Speaker 1: wonder people are confused. I you know, in my book 139 00:08:56,400 --> 00:09:00,120 Speaker 1: Party Animal, I write in one passage with regard to 140 00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:02,600 Speaker 1: COVID and what we did to the elderly and young people, 141 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:06,680 Speaker 1: and what we did to the American psyche, a nation 142 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:12,440 Speaker 1: that is perpetually anxious, What we did the opioid crisis, 143 00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:16,720 Speaker 1: to the economy, to young kids who were socially isolated. 144 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:20,320 Speaker 1: Can you think of anything worse than socially isolating a 145 00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 1: young child? With Twitter, with Facebook, with social media, with TikTok, 146 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:29,960 Speaker 1: we treated kids worse than we do criminals who would 147 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:32,840 Speaker 1: reserve solitary confinement for only the worst. And that's what 148 00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:35,800 Speaker 1: these people did to children. That's what they still want 149 00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:37,360 Speaker 1: to do now. They want to give them the JAB 150 00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:41,040 Speaker 1: as young as two years old. When do these folks 151 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:44,800 Speaker 1: who have been wrong on every single piece of advice, 152 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:50,120 Speaker 1: every single prognostication, every single aspect about public health we 153 00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:52,240 Speaker 1: ought to ban, you want to censor, We need to 154 00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:55,760 Speaker 1: ban the term public health expert because they've been wrong 155 00:09:55,840 --> 00:10:00,240 Speaker 1: on everything. When did they get their come uppance? As 156 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:02,240 Speaker 1: I say in my book, God may forgive them, but 157 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:07,400 Speaker 1: I won't. What we did to young kids with COVID 158 00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:13,280 Speaker 1: is unconscionable and they will be paying for it for generations. 159 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:20,840 Speaker 1: The anxiety and worse, the lack of education. It was 160 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:25,880 Speaker 1: just it was a form of child abuse. And they're 161 00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:30,800 Speaker 1: still at it. This is the challenge. This is the 162 00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:34,360 Speaker 1: challenge for the opposition party. This is the challenge in 163 00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:37,720 Speaker 1: getting to the bottom of this. If they will exploit 164 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:43,920 Speaker 1: public health for political gain, they will do anything. One 165 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:46,200 Speaker 1: eight hundred two eight two two eight eight two. That 166 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:48,360 Speaker 1: is the contact line for Clay and Buck. I am 167 00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:51,120 Speaker 1: the talk show hosts formerly known as Congressman Jason Lewis. 168 00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:54,120 Speaker 1: In for the Dynamic Duo today and tomorrow. Your calls 169 00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:57,719 Speaker 1: when we return, So don't go away. You know, as 170 00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:00,400 Speaker 1: I told Clay the other day when I fell, it's 171 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:03,400 Speaker 1: just like a Vikings game in the fourth quarter. You 172 00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:06,360 Speaker 1: have no idea how it's gonna finish. Wow, We're gonna 173 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:08,600 Speaker 1: finish big. With calls at one eight hundred two eight 174 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:10,640 Speaker 1: two to eight eight two. The guys will be back 175 00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:13,559 Speaker 1: next week. I am the talk show host formerly known 176 00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:15,920 Speaker 1: as Congressman Jason Lewis and Dare I Say, author of 177 00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 1: the new book Party Animal, The Truth about President Trump, Power, 178 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:22,920 Speaker 1: Politics and the Partisan Press. Lots of partisans press stories 179 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:26,720 Speaker 1: in the book, you know, too many to I mean, 180 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:28,440 Speaker 1: the book would be the size of the Bible if 181 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:31,400 Speaker 1: I wrote all of the medium misgivings. But we got 182 00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:33,319 Speaker 1: the best ones in there. One eight hundred two eight 183 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 1: two to eight eight two. Here is Bobby in San Antonio. 184 00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:42,680 Speaker 1: Thanks for waiting. Hey, Congress Lewis, how are you? I'm 185 00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:46,320 Speaker 1: very good, sir, how are you good? I just want 186 00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 1: to debunk for once and for all, the climate change. 187 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:52,760 Speaker 1: I had a meteorologist, and you could probably do this 188 00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:56,320 Speaker 1: in any major town in the United States do some research. 189 00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:58,880 Speaker 1: But I had a meteor all of this and myself 190 00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:02,680 Speaker 1: do a bunch of research on climate change. Now, this 191 00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 1: was told to me about ten years ago. Back then 192 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:07,760 Speaker 1: there was one hundred and twenty five years. So right 193 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:09,959 Speaker 1: now I'm going back one hundred and thirty five years. 194 00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:14,880 Speaker 1: The population of San Antonio itself was less than ten 195 00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:18,000 Speaker 1: percent of what it is now. The housing market was 196 00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 1: probably less than ten percent it is now. There was 197 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:25,480 Speaker 1: no concrete roads, there was no concrete buildings, there was 198 00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:30,200 Speaker 1: no high rises, there was no asphalt roads, and all 199 00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:33,480 Speaker 1: of that put together, from one hundred and thirty five 200 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:37,520 Speaker 1: years ago to the day, our average temperature yearly has 201 00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:43,960 Speaker 1: risen by one degree. And that's the fact. The problem 202 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:46,680 Speaker 1: you've got here and you're alluding to this is the 203 00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 1: reliance on computer models, is it not? If you take 204 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:52,520 Speaker 1: a look at our temperature records, which only go back 205 00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:55,400 Speaker 1: into the nineteenth century, and you take a look at 206 00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:59,640 Speaker 1: satellite temperature data compared with the Noah's computer models, you 207 00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:03,720 Speaker 1: find is wide divergence between the cataclysmic global warming and 208 00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:07,640 Speaker 1: what the actual data say. And whenever you challenge that 209 00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:12,960 Speaker 1: the scientists the science is settled, these are the people 210 00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:15,040 Speaker 1: that said the science was settled on the coming ice 211 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:18,000 Speaker 1: age in the nineteen seventies. They say you're a denier, 212 00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:21,360 Speaker 1: and that suffices for an argument. You're just a denier. 213 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:27,000 Speaker 1: And this was the precursor to election deniers, to vaccine deniers, 214 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:31,400 Speaker 1: to COVID deniers. They substitute you're just a denier for debate. 215 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:35,160 Speaker 1: And you're quite right about this. Why is it the 216 00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:40,839 Speaker 1: satellite temperature data differs from the Noah model data? What took? 217 00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:44,319 Speaker 1: What could it be that there you mentioned concrete and asphalt. 218 00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:47,480 Speaker 1: Could it be they're placing their temperature sensors too close 219 00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:51,120 Speaker 1: to the heat urban island effect? Well, in climate Gate, 220 00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:54,320 Speaker 1: that's what some people alleged in that story was spiked. 221 00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:58,240 Speaker 1: They didn't want to go there. Why is it that 222 00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:03,280 Speaker 1: greenhouse gas has come precipitously or upwards, I should say 223 00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:08,600 Speaker 1: since World War Two? But initially temperatures plunged to the 224 00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:10,840 Speaker 1: point where we thought we were entering a new mini 225 00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:13,720 Speaker 1: ice age in the nineteen sixties and seventies. Then they've 226 00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:16,559 Speaker 1: warmed until the last decade, and there's been basically no 227 00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:20,920 Speaker 1: change since then. They don't know all other is to know. 228 00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:23,920 Speaker 1: And it's a little bit like listening to public health 229 00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:28,520 Speaker 1: health experts on COVID say, the science is settled, is 230 00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 1: it not. No, it's not. Three times. I'm at COVID 231 00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:38,160 Speaker 1: three times, and I got the shot, and I got 232 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:40,760 Speaker 1: the second shot. I did not get any of the boosters. 233 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:43,800 Speaker 1: The last time I got COVID it was like a 234 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:49,080 Speaker 1: mild cold, but ice ted positive for COVID boy. And 235 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:52,600 Speaker 1: this is and this is one of their logical fallacies too. 236 00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 1: So first the vaccine was going to stop COVID dead. 237 00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:58,280 Speaker 1: Then when it didn't, it's well, it would have been 238 00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:00,800 Speaker 1: worse had you not had the vaccine. What you don't know, 239 00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:03,760 Speaker 1: you can't prove a negative. That is a logical fallacy 240 00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:06,480 Speaker 1: one oh one. And yet that's what they're relying on 241 00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:09,360 Speaker 1: because so many people getting the vaccine and getting the 242 00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:13,360 Speaker 1: boosters are getting COVID. They lied about this. They didn't 243 00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:15,840 Speaker 1: know what the hell they were talking about. They still don't. 244 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:18,840 Speaker 1: Public health expert is the only phrase that ought to 245 00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:21,400 Speaker 1: be banned in the lexicon these days, because they're a 246 00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:24,600 Speaker 1: joke and everybody knows it, but nobody can say it 247 00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:28,320 Speaker 1: or they get banned. You remember exactly what Joe Biden's 248 00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:32,400 Speaker 1: words were, The unvaccinated are the problem. He gets vaccinated 249 00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:35,160 Speaker 1: and gets two boosters and he still catches it twice, 250 00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:38,320 Speaker 1: He catches it every other week. Yeah, no, no, you 251 00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:40,280 Speaker 1: got it, my friend one eight hundred two A two 252 00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:42,960 Speaker 1: to eight eight two. Thanks for checking in. Let's move 253 00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:45,680 Speaker 1: on Ransom in Columbus, Ohio. You're next on the Clay 254 00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:50,840 Speaker 1: and buckshow hey, Jason, appreciate your comments and you have 255 00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:55,120 Speaker 1: the inside of how the swamp works. I got a 256 00:15:55,160 --> 00:15:56,680 Speaker 1: couple of things I want to run past you and 257 00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:58,840 Speaker 1: get your opinion on it, and maybe you can help 258 00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:02,040 Speaker 1: some of us as ordinary people who pay our taxes 259 00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:06,200 Speaker 1: and really want the government to stay off our back. Basically, 260 00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:09,040 Speaker 1: I've been in the airline illustrate most of my life, 261 00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:13,240 Speaker 1: and recently it took jobs in Denver for two prominent airlines, 262 00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:17,120 Speaker 1: which I won't mention Ransom. I'm bad. This is called 263 00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:20,200 Speaker 1: bad clock management by the old amateur former congressman. Here, 264 00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:22,560 Speaker 1: can you hold tight? And then I'll come right back 265 00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:25,600 Speaker 1: to you when we come out of the break. Sounds great, 266 00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:27,880 Speaker 1: all right, buddy, Why don't you do that? And when 267 00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:29,920 Speaker 1: we come back, we'll get back to Ransom and all 268 00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:31,880 Speaker 1: this chaos we've got in the skies and all the 269 00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:35,560 Speaker 1: rest stick around. You're on plane ball man, oh man, 270 00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:37,480 Speaker 1: I gotta say, Crash and Greg are on top of 271 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:39,960 Speaker 1: these bumpers. I like these. I like that pop sound 272 00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:43,320 Speaker 1: of the seventies eighties. It's pretty good stuff, you know. Tomorrow, guys, 273 00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:44,960 Speaker 1: ought to be a good night, a good day for 274 00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:48,520 Speaker 1: a beatle bumper Friday. Ah ah, who come up with that? 275 00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:50,520 Speaker 1: That's a pretty good one. One eight hundred two eight 276 00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:52,840 Speaker 1: two two eight eight two The contact line. Now, I's 277 00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:56,000 Speaker 1: promised back to Ransom, so kind to hang through that 278 00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:58,040 Speaker 1: break with us. But I know you've got something important 279 00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 1: to say, so fire away, my friend. Yeah, Jason. Basically, 280 00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:03,600 Speaker 1: what I wanted to do is get your opinion on 281 00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:06,320 Speaker 1: a couple of things and kind of educate us busting things. 282 00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:09,840 Speaker 1: For one thing, I took a job last year, a 283 00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:12,280 Speaker 1: couple last couple of two years and went out to 284 00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:15,000 Speaker 1: Denver and worked in the airlines for a lot of 285 00:17:15,280 --> 00:17:18,960 Speaker 1: a lot of years. Mandatory take the jab to be 286 00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:21,719 Speaker 1: able to get those jobs. Now we're finding out that 287 00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:25,119 Speaker 1: there are side effects for that. So they're saying that 288 00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:29,440 Speaker 1: they should be immune from Faizer, Maderna, Johnson and Johnson 289 00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:34,120 Speaker 1: for jabbing us but yet infecting dangerous toxins into our systems. 290 00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:37,359 Speaker 1: So I think there should be some accountability for those 291 00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:42,680 Speaker 1: those companies and also those manufacturers of those viruses. So 292 00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:44,960 Speaker 1: I want your opinion on that. And the last thing 293 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:48,240 Speaker 1: is that what can we do to drain the swamp. 294 00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:52,600 Speaker 1: I did call Mitch McConnell's office the other day asking 295 00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:55,640 Speaker 1: their aids to ask him to please resign. He does 296 00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:57,920 Speaker 1: not know what's going on with the American people. He 297 00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:02,359 Speaker 1: doesn't represent us. He's having secret meetings with Democrats and 298 00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:05,320 Speaker 1: won't even talk to as a Republican people that are 299 00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:07,080 Speaker 1: supposed to be in the Senate. We supposed to do 300 00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:10,480 Speaker 1: this equally. He knows nothing about American history. He knows 301 00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:14,080 Speaker 1: nothing about serving the people of the United States. Schumer. 302 00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:16,560 Speaker 1: We can go down the list, how do we drain 303 00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:19,159 Speaker 1: the swamp of We did get rid of Pelosi, but 304 00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:23,720 Speaker 1: how do we get rid of people like these? Like Yeah, 305 00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:26,320 Speaker 1: a couple of questions there, ansom thank you. One on 306 00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:29,159 Speaker 1: the public health policy and the ramifications of those who 307 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:33,760 Speaker 1: misled us dangerously in some cases. And two the swamp, which, 308 00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:36,679 Speaker 1: as I write about in my book Party Animal, is ubiquitous. 309 00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:41,600 Speaker 1: It's not just wayward Republicans, it's also you know, sabotaging 310 00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:44,040 Speaker 1: things that need to get done from being done. And 311 00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:47,040 Speaker 1: it is the bureaucracy, which, by the way, you know, 312 00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:49,840 Speaker 1: when I was campaigning for the Senate here in Minnesota 313 00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:53,639 Speaker 1: with the President, we talked about civil service reform. You 314 00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:57,119 Speaker 1: have these people that are untouchable, two million employees, and 315 00:18:57,600 --> 00:18:59,359 Speaker 1: they feel as though after a while they can do 316 00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:01,920 Speaker 1: whatever they want. And you get this fourth estate that's 317 00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:04,480 Speaker 1: no longer the media, but the bureaucracy. And you've got 318 00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:08,479 Speaker 1: to address that with Civil service reform to get some 319 00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:10,880 Speaker 1: of this stuff done. But let's take the public health 320 00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:15,960 Speaker 1: challenge first. In some cases, employers would be between a 321 00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:17,960 Speaker 1: rock and a heart spot because if they didn't follow 322 00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:21,880 Speaker 1: CDC guidelines as arrant as they ended up turning out 323 00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:24,719 Speaker 1: to be. Why then they could have been sued. And 324 00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:27,480 Speaker 1: if they do follow them, now we see these ramifications 325 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:29,919 Speaker 1: from the young and healthy, who quite frankly, don't need 326 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:33,919 Speaker 1: the shot. I'm not saying that the elderly with conditions 327 00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:37,919 Speaker 1: shouldn't have taken the vaccine. I'm saying one size fits 328 00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:42,879 Speaker 1: all approach was the most beneficial to the bottom line 329 00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:44,960 Speaker 1: of some of these big farmer companies, not to the 330 00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:48,919 Speaker 1: American people, and that is an outrage. We did not 331 00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:52,439 Speaker 1: focus on therapeutics when Donald Trump, I thought one of 332 00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:56,000 Speaker 1: his best speeches came out from having had COVID and said, 333 00:19:56,240 --> 00:20:00,320 Speaker 1: do not be afraid of this. Americans don't cower, uzzled 334 00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:03,720 Speaker 1: up in fear and put their children in solitary confinement. 335 00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:06,320 Speaker 1: Do not be afraid. When I find out that Jim Baker, 336 00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:10,120 Speaker 1: the former FBI guy who was there during the Russian collusion, 337 00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:13,159 Speaker 1: was at Twitter saying we should censor that, We should 338 00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:18,920 Speaker 1: censor that so we know the situation was out of control. 339 00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:22,360 Speaker 1: What we need to do is make certain that there 340 00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:25,360 Speaker 1: is an avenue to challenge this, and part of that 341 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:28,560 Speaker 1: is going to be Kevin McCarthy and the House leadership 342 00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:34,760 Speaker 1: in researching the origins of COVID, in investigating what the 343 00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:38,399 Speaker 1: public health authorities did and at whose behest, and holding 344 00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:40,760 Speaker 1: people accountable that way, and by god, we may even 345 00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:45,840 Speaker 1: get some criminal referrals, who knows, But what we ought 346 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:50,400 Speaker 1: to fundamentally know is that corporate America is woke. And 347 00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:53,080 Speaker 1: one of the things that's going to take time is 348 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:57,280 Speaker 1: going to make it's going to be the Republicans quit 349 00:20:57,440 --> 00:21:01,480 Speaker 1: carrying water for corporate America. You know, let me tell 350 00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:06,160 Speaker 1: you what Republican consultants advise all Republican candidates. Stay away 351 00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:10,960 Speaker 1: from the social issues. Sure, we're having we're having transvestites, 352 00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:15,520 Speaker 1: twark kids and parades which years ago would have been 353 00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:18,919 Speaker 1: considered child abuse. But you know what, don't take on 354 00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:21,400 Speaker 1: the trans community. The human rights campaign will come down 355 00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:24,240 Speaker 1: hard on you. Don't go there. Oh the dab's decision 356 00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:26,560 Speaker 1: an abortion, don't go there, don't take it on. Just 357 00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:31,000 Speaker 1: ignore that issue. Ignore all of the social issue. Immigration, 358 00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:37,320 Speaker 1: ignore that, grooming our kids, sexualizing our kids, ignore that abortion, 359 00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:39,600 Speaker 1: ignore that. Well, they ignored it in the twenty twenty 360 00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:44,159 Speaker 1: mid terms. How'd that turn out the consultancy class in 361 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:47,200 Speaker 1: the GOP. Basically their view is if a corporate tax 362 00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:50,879 Speaker 1: cut won't fix it, don't talk about it. It's the 363 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:55,240 Speaker 1: it's the comfortable conservatism that they think alienates no one, 364 00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:58,240 Speaker 1: but in fact it alienates their base, and so you've 365 00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:00,520 Speaker 1: got to get candidates willing to take this stuff on. 366 00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:05,159 Speaker 1: It really is the reckoning in that regard. And if 367 00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:07,560 Speaker 1: that means you lose an election or two before you 368 00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:12,200 Speaker 1: persuade the people like the Democrats have done, then you're 369 00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:14,840 Speaker 1: at least you're doing it for a cause, for something good. 370 00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:17,879 Speaker 1: But if all you're worried about is what Frank Lenz's 371 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:19,800 Speaker 1: pole tells you, and you know that pole is going 372 00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:24,000 Speaker 1: to be skewed, then you're never going to accomplish anything. 373 00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:26,960 Speaker 1: And that's a huge, huge part of the problem. Why 374 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:31,600 Speaker 1: you're really in this game. What's your goal? As far 375 00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:36,480 Speaker 1: as McConnell is concerned. Look, I happen to think McCarthy 376 00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:39,040 Speaker 1: ought to be speaker. Look, Kevin is put in the 377 00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:42,760 Speaker 1: time and what they're demanding of him to basically recall 378 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:44,800 Speaker 1: the speaker with a vote or two to vacate the 379 00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:48,399 Speaker 1: chair is impossible for any speaker to sign on too, 380 00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:51,520 Speaker 1: and he did at least win the House. There's no 381 00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:55,480 Speaker 1: excuse for McConnell because he keeps rubbing Republican conservatives knows 382 00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:59,240 Speaker 1: in at all. As I mentioned earlier, it wasn't just 383 00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:02,480 Speaker 1: the endless COVID bills. It was the Inflation Reduction Act, 384 00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:07,240 Speaker 1: the Infrastructure Bill, the Semiconductor bailout Bill, now the Omnibus Bill. 385 00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:09,520 Speaker 1: That's all it seems to do is rub their nose 386 00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:13,840 Speaker 1: in it. The Respect for Marriage Bill, which codifies gay 387 00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:16,400 Speaker 1: unions throughout the country no matter what the Supreme Court 388 00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:19,680 Speaker 1: might do in the future. But all of this stuff 389 00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:23,119 Speaker 1: is giving aid and comfort to Democrats, and at some 390 00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:26,159 Speaker 1: point you're gonna have to hold them accountable. Maybe you 391 00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:28,720 Speaker 1: primary them, maybe, But it goes back to money, because 392 00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:31,200 Speaker 1: Mitch has got all the money, and that's why everybody's 393 00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:34,560 Speaker 1: afraid of him. And that's another problem that's got to 394 00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:38,600 Speaker 1: be discussed now. Part of the challenge is getting rid 395 00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:42,240 Speaker 1: of this censorious social media and getting rid of believing 396 00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:46,639 Speaker 1: anyone in the mainstream media and going after the public 397 00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:49,840 Speaker 1: health authorities for the lies they told or the shearing 398 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:53,120 Speaker 1: competence they told. It doesn't help when the Wall Street 399 00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:56,440 Speaker 1: Journal decides to print an op ed by Zeke Emmanuel 400 00:23:56,720 --> 00:23:59,160 Speaker 1: one of the guys leading the charge on locking down 401 00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:01,320 Speaker 1: the country and mother lean the country, and now he's 402 00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:06,879 Speaker 1: in the Wall Street Journal. Wow. So we gotta we 403 00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:09,240 Speaker 1: gotta give as good as we get. And that's half 404 00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:13,119 Speaker 1: the battle, if not more of it. I don't know 405 00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:15,439 Speaker 1: if it answers everything, and there's no quick, easy fix, 406 00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:19,040 Speaker 1: but it's it's hopefully getting there. What was the other one? 407 00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:20,680 Speaker 1: He was public health? And then what was the other 408 00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:23,359 Speaker 1: point you wanted to make Ransom? Well, yeah, I was 409 00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:26,480 Speaker 1: just gonna say that, you know, ultimately, you know, and 410 00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:30,920 Speaker 1: I am a man of faith, all authority comes from God, Okay. 411 00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:34,439 Speaker 1: And there's a scripture that says when the righteous are 412 00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:38,600 Speaker 1: an authority, the people rejoice, when the un righteous an authority, 413 00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:41,320 Speaker 1: the people mourned. That's certainly what our country is doing. 414 00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:44,040 Speaker 1: And I want to warn I'm just I'm not a 415 00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:46,760 Speaker 1: prophet or anybody like that, but I don't warrant anyone 416 00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:49,760 Speaker 1: in this country that has any sort of authority. That 417 00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:54,600 Speaker 1: authority came from God himself, and we used to whether 418 00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:57,680 Speaker 1: you know him or not, you will be accountable for 419 00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:02,240 Speaker 1: that authority you were given, how you steward it. So Ransom, 420 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:06,560 Speaker 1: it is the rationale that it is the rationale for 421 00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:09,280 Speaker 1: the republic or you just described. We get our rights 422 00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:12,879 Speaker 1: from God, not from government. No man shall have to 423 00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:15,720 Speaker 1: answer to another man. That is why we have self government, 424 00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:19,679 Speaker 1: and that is why honest elections are so important. It 425 00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:22,520 Speaker 1: is the last safety valve of a republic that honors 426 00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:28,600 Speaker 1: a higher authority. And so what you're saying is absolutely true. Look, 427 00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:32,040 Speaker 1: all I would say is it is always a balance 428 00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:34,440 Speaker 1: between letting the perfect become the enemy of the good 429 00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:39,679 Speaker 1: and and you know, falling on the sword. But my 430 00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:42,520 Speaker 1: advice take it for what it's worth. It was only 431 00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:45,920 Speaker 1: there a short while. Is the Republicans in the House 432 00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:48,439 Speaker 1: need to get something done. They need to get to 433 00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:50,040 Speaker 1: the bottom of COVID. They need to get to the 434 00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:52,119 Speaker 1: bottom of Hunter's laptop. They need to get to the 435 00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:54,439 Speaker 1: bottom of the FBI. They need to get to the 436 00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:58,400 Speaker 1: bottom of this and have results and real ramifications for 437 00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:02,440 Speaker 1: these wrongdoers. They need to use power while they have it, 438 00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:06,960 Speaker 1: and I think they can. I'm not so certain about 439 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:10,800 Speaker 1: mister McConnell, Susan and North Carolina, thanks for waiting. Your 440 00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:12,800 Speaker 1: next up on the Claim Buck Show with me Jason 441 00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:20,479 Speaker 1: Lewis high Um I just want to. I believe that 442 00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:25,760 Speaker 1: there are two factions to the Democratic Party, and that's 443 00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:29,879 Speaker 1: the one are the far left Democrats, and the others 444 00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:33,760 Speaker 1: are most of the Republicans who are really Democrats. They're 445 00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:36,959 Speaker 1: all in it, seems to me, for the money, and 446 00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:40,719 Speaker 1: so they don't want them. They don't want the Democrats 447 00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:44,560 Speaker 1: to lose anything. They act like their Republicans, these Republicans, 448 00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:47,800 Speaker 1: but they're not really because they're afraid of losing their 449 00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:52,159 Speaker 1: pocket fall of money too. What I think needs to happen, 450 00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:54,040 Speaker 1: and you know, you know more than I do, But 451 00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:56,760 Speaker 1: I don't care if you're in office for two, for four, 452 00:26:56,880 --> 00:27:00,840 Speaker 1: for six, eight years whatever. They need to be term limits. 453 00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:03,080 Speaker 1: If you can't get it done in one term, I 454 00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:05,080 Speaker 1: might give you two. If you can't get it done 455 00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:07,399 Speaker 1: in two terms, you need to be out. Because what 456 00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:10,320 Speaker 1: we have coming on now are all these people running 457 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:13,000 Speaker 1: for office so they can get rich quick. That's all. 458 00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:15,440 Speaker 1: They don't have to stir about the people at all. 459 00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:20,040 Speaker 1: They care only about themselves. Well, you're right and you're wrong. 460 00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:22,439 Speaker 1: Let me let me go where you're right. First of all. 461 00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:25,080 Speaker 1: In my book, Party Animal, the last chapter has a 462 00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:28,480 Speaker 1: long section on term limits and the necessity for term 463 00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:32,080 Speaker 1: limits where the founders called it rotation and office. If 464 00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:34,440 Speaker 1: it's good enough for the president, it's certainly good enough 465 00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:36,560 Speaker 1: for members of Congress. Now, I don't think it has 466 00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:38,920 Speaker 1: to be one term. I think if you did three 467 00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:42,119 Speaker 1: terms in the House and two in the Senate, you 468 00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:44,680 Speaker 1: know you'd have what twenty years. Well, if you had 469 00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:47,239 Speaker 1: applied twenty years to the US Senate, a whole lot 470 00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:49,680 Speaker 1: of senators would be gone by now. So I agree 471 00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:53,160 Speaker 1: with you on that. Where he talks about getting rich, 472 00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:56,880 Speaker 1: you really don't get rich. I can testify to that. Now, 473 00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:59,320 Speaker 1: if you stay longer, your pension is going to be better. 474 00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:01,560 Speaker 1: But I was there just one term and was the 475 00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:04,360 Speaker 1: most productive term in a generation since Reagan's first term 476 00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:06,760 Speaker 1: the first two years of Trump, and I get zero pension. 477 00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:09,240 Speaker 1: So and that's fine with me. I didn't go there 478 00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:12,359 Speaker 1: for that, But you know, not everybody goes there. Finally, 479 00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:15,240 Speaker 1: I would say, there are good conservatives in the House, 480 00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:17,760 Speaker 1: and there are good conservatives a few in the Senate, 481 00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:21,760 Speaker 1: though they're vastly outnumbered, but they're definitely to your point, 482 00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:25,080 Speaker 1: is a swamp is that go along to get along 483 00:28:25,119 --> 00:28:28,439 Speaker 1: crowd that, as I say, looks at the next polls, 484 00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:30,200 Speaker 1: what do I have to do to stay here? Once 485 00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:33,400 Speaker 1: they land at Reagan, they look at that that landscape 486 00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:34,600 Speaker 1: and say, what do I have to do to be 487 00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:36,520 Speaker 1: here thirty years? And that's the end of the game, 488 00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:40,479 Speaker 1: isn't it? That absolutely is you know, I mean, and 489 00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:43,920 Speaker 1: that's what is so frustrating, because you know, you think, oh, 490 00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:46,720 Speaker 1: the Republicans have a chance. Now, well, let's see what 491 00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:49,200 Speaker 1: they can do. You've got, you know, miss McConnell, who's 492 00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:51,640 Speaker 1: word for this. You've got a lot of them. I mean, 493 00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:54,600 Speaker 1: you don't hear anything about that. You know about most 494 00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:56,959 Speaker 1: of the Republicans, you don't get you don't hear anything. Well, 495 00:28:57,040 --> 00:29:00,400 Speaker 1: let your frustration. Let your frustration be a warning to 496 00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:03,720 Speaker 1: the House Republicans and to the Senates, to the Senate 497 00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:07,440 Speaker 1: who whose members may face a primary sooner than they think. 498 00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:09,360 Speaker 1: Let it be a warning that there's a whole lot 499 00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:13,080 Speaker 1: of frustrated Americans out there. Susan, thanks so much. I'm 500 00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:15,480 Speaker 1: Jason Lewis in for Buck and Clay or is it 501 00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:18,920 Speaker 1: Clay and Buck? Literally doesn't matter? Back with more when 502 00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:23,000 Speaker 1: we return, Okay, wrapping things up for a Thursday. I 503 00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:27,040 Speaker 1: will be back tomorrow here on the Clay and Travis Show. 504 00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:30,800 Speaker 1: All we claimed Travis, Clay and Buck Show. Always great 505 00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:32,080 Speaker 1: to be here. And the guys who are taking a 506 00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:34,400 Speaker 1: couple of days off, they'll be back next week to 507 00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:37,040 Speaker 1: get it going for the new year. Looking forward to that. 508 00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:39,440 Speaker 1: In the meantime one eight hundred two eight two to 509 00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:42,160 Speaker 1: eight eight two, the contact line has always for Clay 510 00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:45,760 Speaker 1: and Buck right now. So patient in Ogden, Utah, Kelly, 511 00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:48,880 Speaker 1: thanks for waiting. Hello. Maybe she wasn't that patient, or 512 00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:51,680 Speaker 1: he wasn't that patient after all, Kelly, go ahead, my friend, Hey, 513 00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:53,920 Speaker 1: I'm trying to make this quick. When you were talking 514 00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:56,480 Speaker 1: about we had the threat of the coming ice age 515 00:29:56,480 --> 00:29:59,240 Speaker 1: and one of the things that they tried to say 516 00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:02,960 Speaker 1: was a one was the aerosol propellant. It under armed 517 00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:08,480 Speaker 1: the order and soon air fresheners. So that's been so 518 00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:12,719 Speaker 1: effective at reducing those and now we're heading toward global warming. 519 00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:17,240 Speaker 1: We should bring those propellants back. And I remember Saturday 520 00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:20,240 Speaker 1: Night Live, back when it was funny and fun they 521 00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:22,920 Speaker 1: had these. They did a skit where they had the 522 00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:26,280 Speaker 1: six foot tall roll on so it looked like under 523 00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:28,480 Speaker 1: armed roll on they ireruveted on the walls in their 524 00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:32,600 Speaker 1: house for air fresheners, making a complete parody of doing 525 00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:35,800 Speaker 1: a way with the propellants. Well, there was the ozone layer, 526 00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:39,200 Speaker 1: there was acid rain. There's always a catastrophe because you know, 527 00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:41,960 Speaker 1: Randolph Bourne was a World War One protester and he 528 00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:44,960 Speaker 1: wrote one of the most famous lines ever in protesting 529 00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:48,840 Speaker 1: the Great War, which to his credit, I should say, 530 00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:54,480 Speaker 1: you know, he did foresee a militarized century going forward, 531 00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:57,400 Speaker 1: and that is what we got, notwithstanding a needed victory. 532 00:30:57,720 --> 00:31:00,480 Speaker 1: But he said war is the health of the state. 533 00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:02,760 Speaker 1: And what he meant by that is, if you can 534 00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:07,880 Speaker 1: scare a population, if you can terrify people, you can 535 00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:11,160 Speaker 1: get them to conform to almost anything. So it really 536 00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:13,440 Speaker 1: doesn't matter whether it's a war on poverty, a war 537 00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:16,640 Speaker 1: on climate change, a war on COVID, or a war. 538 00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:20,600 Speaker 1: Once you cower people, they will give up their liberty. 539 00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:25,239 Speaker 1: And so everything is phrased in war terms. Now, and 540 00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:28,400 Speaker 1: more importantly, there's a new bogeyman coming down the pike 541 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:31,040 Speaker 1: every other minute. So now it's it's global cooling. Now 542 00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:34,400 Speaker 1: it's global warming. And you're quite right, and nobody ever 543 00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:39,560 Speaker 1: mentions solar activity with regard to the changes in the temperatures. 544 00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:43,400 Speaker 1: But here's the conundrum. Not to debate whether it's happening. 545 00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:46,080 Speaker 1: Co two emissions clearly have gone up. It's just a 546 00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:50,080 Speaker 1: correlation between that and cataclysmic change has never been established. 547 00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:53,720 Speaker 1: The catastrophes have never come to fruition from Al Gore 548 00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:57,520 Speaker 1: or James Hanson or anybody. But the question is what 549 00:31:57,560 --> 00:32:02,160 Speaker 1: do you do when your viewpoint can't see the light 550 00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:04,600 Speaker 1: of day. What do you do when you're labeled a 551 00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:09,440 Speaker 1: climate denier, when the mainstream media spike you in favor 552 00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:12,720 Speaker 1: of some global warming advocate, when social media does it, 553 00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:15,520 Speaker 1: what do you do in a country we'll have to police. 554 00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:18,400 Speaker 1: People don't believe something, and yet they're told they can't 555 00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:24,120 Speaker 1: say it. That's a puzzle because people will accept a 556 00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:29,000 Speaker 1: truth if it already fits what they're thinking. If you 557 00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:31,840 Speaker 1: bring them something that's against it, then they like you 558 00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:35,640 Speaker 1: say it's a discussion. By calling you a denier, that's right, 559 00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:38,440 Speaker 1: and that's not a debate. Of course, that's fascism, and 560 00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:43,120 Speaker 1: unfortunately that's what we're dealing with. Isaiah and Tennessee, just 561 00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:47,080 Speaker 1: hang on for another twenty one hours and we'll get 562 00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:51,520 Speaker 1: you right up. I'm Jason Lewis, so nice to be 563 00:32:51,560 --> 00:32:54,840 Speaker 1: in for Klay and Buck today. We'll do it again tomorrow. 564 00:32:55,360 --> 00:32:59,640 Speaker 1: Can't wait. In the meantime, stay warm and hopefully you're 565 00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:02,640 Speaker 1: on your flight back to wherever you tried to get 566 00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:04,760 Speaker 1: to a few days ago. Hang in there, my friends. 567 00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:07,880 Speaker 1: Jason Lewis signing off tomorrow back here for Clay and Buck. 568 00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:15,640 Speaker 1: Have a good one. Play Travis and Buck Sexton on 569 00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:17,560 Speaker 1: the front lines of truth.
