1 00:00:01,360 --> 00:00:04,120 Speaker 1: You're in the freedom Hunt. This is the Buck Sexton 2 00:00:04,200 --> 00:00:07,520 Speaker 1: Show podcast. Get more from Buck by following him on 3 00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:11,480 Speaker 1: social media at Buck Sexton on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. 4 00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:14,200 Speaker 1: All of us are faced with two choices, both of 5 00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:17,360 Speaker 1: which are lousy. One choice is vote against the objection, 6 00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:20,320 Speaker 1: and tens of millions of Americans will see a vote 7 00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:24,000 Speaker 1: against the objection as a statement that voter fraud doesn't matter, 8 00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:27,319 Speaker 1: isn't real and shouldn't be taken seriously, and a great 9 00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:29,960 Speaker 1: many of us don't believe that. On the other hand, 10 00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:32,599 Speaker 1: most if not all, of us believe we should not 11 00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:35,440 Speaker 1: set aside the results of an election just because our 12 00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:38,199 Speaker 1: candidate may not have prevailed. And so I endeavored to 13 00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:41,040 Speaker 1: look for door number three, a third option. And for 14 00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:43,400 Speaker 1: that I look to history, to the precedent of the 15 00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:47,200 Speaker 1: eighteen seventy six election, the Hayes tild An election, where 16 00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:51,960 Speaker 1: this Congress appointed an electoral commission to examine claims of 17 00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:55,800 Speaker 1: voter fraud. Five House members, five senators, five Supreme Court 18 00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:59,640 Speaker 1: justices examine the evidence and rendered a judgment. And what 19 00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:01,639 Speaker 1: I would urge of this body is that we do 20 00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:05,200 Speaker 1: the same, that we appoint an electoral commission to conduct 21 00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:10,640 Speaker 1: a ten day emergency audit consider the evidence and resolve 22 00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:13,160 Speaker 1: the claims. For those on the Democratic aisle who says 23 00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:16,240 Speaker 1: say there is no evidence they've been rejected, then you 24 00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:19,920 Speaker 1: should rest in comfort. If that's the case, an electoral 25 00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:23,560 Speaker 1: commission would reject those claims. But for those who respect 26 00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:26,840 Speaker 1: the voters, simply telling the voters go jump in a lake, 27 00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:29,840 Speaker 1: the fact that you have deep concerns is of no 28 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:35,080 Speaker 1: moment to us that jeopardizes I believe the legitimacy of 29 00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:42,160 Speaker 1: this and subsequent elections. We can handle the truth, and ultimately, 30 00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:45,039 Speaker 1: the truth is what this is all about. Getting to it, 31 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:49,280 Speaker 1: finding out what is real, what is not, what actually 32 00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:54,960 Speaker 1: happened in this election. It is essential our entire system 33 00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:57,480 Speaker 1: rests on the premise that we believe there is a 34 00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:00,400 Speaker 1: good faith and there is a fairness in the operating 35 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:06,240 Speaker 1: procedures of this Republic. Senator Ted Cruz there speaking well 36 00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:11,200 Speaker 1: to that point. And yet do we feel any better 37 00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:14,280 Speaker 1: about it today than we did yesterday? No, of course, 38 00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:21,480 Speaker 1: we feel most likely considerably worse. Why is that. Let's 39 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:25,480 Speaker 1: first start with why people were marching in DC yesterday. 40 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:30,120 Speaker 1: Let's start on that issue, because it's many things. The 41 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:34,080 Speaker 1: media and the focus is on those who believe that 42 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,240 Speaker 1: this was a stolen election, and that is certainly a 43 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:40,760 Speaker 1: big part, perhaps a majority, of all of the concern 44 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 1: and anger out there on the streets. But what else 45 00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 1: was motivating this? Why do people feel the need to 46 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:51,760 Speaker 1: take time out of their lives in a very difficult year, 47 00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:54,080 Speaker 1: with a lot of stresses around us because of COVID 48 00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 1: and everything else. Why would hundreds of thousands of people 49 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 1: gather together in DC to make their voices heard. We 50 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:07,919 Speaker 1: have been drifting as a nation toward a culture politically 51 00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:13,840 Speaker 1: socially where there is no middle ground allowed, there's no 52 00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 1: dissent allowed, the rights of political minorities are increasingly trampled on, 53 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:24,679 Speaker 1: and there is an incredibly powerful system, one that even 54 00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:28,079 Speaker 1: goes beyond what you've seen and some of the other 55 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:34,080 Speaker 1: authoritarian regimes of history, in that it is entirely capable 56 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 1: of leveraging information technology, the global marketplace wealth on a 57 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:45,480 Speaker 1: scale that human beings have never seen, to brainwash, to control, 58 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 1: to determine. And it feels like a rigged game, right. 59 00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:54,120 Speaker 1: It feels as though what we do does not really 60 00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 1: change very much, and it feels as though we're not 61 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 1: allowed to even raise add up anymore and talk about 62 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 1: it publicly for fear of being ostracized by these social 63 00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:11,839 Speaker 1: media companies that I know that we have to get 64 00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 1: used to this idea. Social media is not something that 65 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 1: kids use now just to say hi to each other 66 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:20,720 Speaker 1: and communicate. Social media is a dominant force in the 67 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:23,920 Speaker 1: flow of information in this country and around the world. 68 00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:27,800 Speaker 1: It is more powerful than the traditional media because it 69 00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:33,360 Speaker 1: determines what traditional media you get to see. Wokeness this 70 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:37,760 Speaker 1: is another way of describing political orthodoxy of the left, 71 00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 1: and wokeness is ever evolving because ultimately it's true goal 72 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:47,599 Speaker 1: is not changing society so that everybody is equal. It's 73 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 1: true goal is just power, and then it will figure 74 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 1: out what it decides to do with it, because it 75 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:54,679 Speaker 1: doesn't even know what it wants. Why does it feel 76 00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 1: like there's an inherent schizophrenia in the Democrat lefts woke 77 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 1: ideology because there is. There are multiple personalities at war 78 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:10,440 Speaker 1: with each other inside of the Democrat mind on this issue. 79 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:13,760 Speaker 1: Because you can never be sure that you're woken up, 80 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 1: it has to constantly evolve and seek out new targets. 81 00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:22,600 Speaker 1: It's effectively a colonial project for the mind right. It 82 00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:26,560 Speaker 1: is dominating your consciousness, that's what it seeks to do, 83 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 1: and that it can entirely control you and then figure 84 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 1: out how to create an entirely equal society. And what 85 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,479 Speaker 1: would that even look like. As we know, societies that 86 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:39,240 Speaker 1: put the greatest emphasis on achieving absolute equality achieve the 87 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:44,920 Speaker 1: exact opposite, and history speaks very clearly on that. So 88 00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:47,680 Speaker 1: people are upset because of all of these things. And 89 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:53,560 Speaker 1: then also we have suffered through the single worst year 90 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:58,359 Speaker 1: in terms of our individual freedoms, in terms of government 91 00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:03,560 Speaker 1: overreach of my lifetime. But they use this idea that 92 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:06,560 Speaker 1: the government can protect you from COVID to justify all 93 00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:10,159 Speaker 1: of it. They use the notion that if you only listen, 94 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:13,680 Speaker 1: you'll be saving lives, you'll be protecting people, and if 95 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:16,600 Speaker 1: you're not willing to listen, if you want to dissent, 96 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:21,599 Speaker 1: you are putting people at risk. This was a recipe 97 00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:26,560 Speaker 1: for absolute control, and they've edged closer and closer to 98 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:29,840 Speaker 1: that this year than I thought would be possible honestly 99 00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 1: in my lifetime. And for what are we safer from 100 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:39,320 Speaker 1: COVID with Think of all the government mandates and shutdowns 101 00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:43,159 Speaker 1: and everything they've done. Does anyone look at what's happening 102 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:45,960 Speaker 1: right now in the country with hospitalizations and cases, and 103 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 1: think anything other than the virus is gonna virus. It spreads. 104 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:53,279 Speaker 1: You do your best to stay healthy and stay away 105 00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:57,680 Speaker 1: from it, but the government cannot protect you. Am I 106 00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:02,719 Speaker 1: missing something? Where where's the example of great government success 107 00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 1: in this You had Operation Warp Speed, which is a success, 108 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 1: but the distribution of this vaccine is already a cluster. 109 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:14,000 Speaker 1: And then you look at all the lockdown, at the masking, 110 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 1: all these policies they have instituted, and for what does 111 00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:20,160 Speaker 1: it feel like the journalists who are supposed to be 112 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:24,440 Speaker 1: speaking truth to power, these media companies that have gotten 113 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:27,680 Speaker 1: in many cases, especially the social media companies wealthier, more 114 00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:32,480 Speaker 1: influential during lockdown because we are now replacing human contact 115 00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:37,160 Speaker 1: and living life with screens. We all live our life 116 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:39,600 Speaker 1: now if you're working remotely, unless you're an essential and 117 00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:41,480 Speaker 1: you have to actually go into your job, we're living 118 00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 1: our life just in front of these screens where you're 119 00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 1: being bombarded with information that's destructive, often that's false, that's vicious, 120 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:55,720 Speaker 1: and that has an agenda, and that's really almost all 121 00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 1: the time. And we're replacing those basic bonds of human 122 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:02,240 Speaker 1: content act that remind us all that we are in 123 00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:04,640 Speaker 1: this together, and we are all on borrowed time. And 124 00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:09,400 Speaker 1: when we're talking about Americans, our fellow Americans were losing 125 00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 1: sight of the fact that we live in the greatest 126 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:15,840 Speaker 1: country in the history of the planet. That's an amazing statement, 127 00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:18,440 Speaker 1: isn't it. And I'm sorry if it sounds a little 128 00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 1: hokey today. I'm sorry if it's a little bit corny 129 00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:23,600 Speaker 1: to some of you. But we right now are living 130 00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 1: in the greatest country, in the greatest, wealthiest, happiest time 131 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:31,200 Speaker 1: in human history, and we are lucky to be here, 132 00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 1: and we need to preserve it. Yes, we need to 133 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:37,600 Speaker 1: fight for them to understand what's so great about it. 134 00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:40,880 Speaker 1: But what I see out there right now is this 135 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 1: ideological cancer of destroy. Destroy the dissenters, Destroy those who 136 00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:53,959 Speaker 1: believe in liberty, in limitations on government, Destroy those who 137 00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:57,760 Speaker 1: think the Constitution is supposed to prevent all the great 138 00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:02,640 Speaker 1: plans that the experts are honjuring up for us. Isn't 139 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:06,599 Speaker 1: this year of the lockdown? Isn't twenty twenty. I know 140 00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:08,440 Speaker 1: we're in twenty twenty one now, but I'm thinking about 141 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:13,080 Speaker 1: the last twelve months. Isn't it a repudiation of the 142 00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:18,040 Speaker 1: elites and of government control. It doesn't feel like they 143 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:20,880 Speaker 1: think that. That's for sure. We were very aware of that. 144 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,600 Speaker 1: But anybody who's being honest about it would say, we 145 00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:28,840 Speaker 1: need a return to first principles here in this country. 146 00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:32,080 Speaker 1: We need an understanding of what it is that we 147 00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:36,320 Speaker 1: are seeking to create in our society every day, and 148 00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:38,400 Speaker 1: for us to get there, we need to have a 149 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:42,600 Speaker 1: combin We need to have a combination of things all 150 00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:49,000 Speaker 1: come together at once. We need a relentless, unapologetic search 151 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:52,240 Speaker 1: for the truth. We need the courage and bravery to 152 00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:56,120 Speaker 1: stand for our principles, and we have to remember that 153 00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:58,439 Speaker 1: at the end of the day, what we're all trying 154 00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:01,480 Speaker 1: to do, all of us who are approaching this in 155 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:04,360 Speaker 1: good faith, with love and reverence for the history of 156 00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:07,120 Speaker 1: this country, for this amazing nation, is to make this 157 00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:11,520 Speaker 1: a better place for all of us, even the wackos, 158 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 1: even the people of Antifa. I want a better America 159 00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:20,400 Speaker 1: that they are fortunate to live in because our ideas prevail. 160 00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 1: And I know that can be a hard thing. You 161 00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:27,680 Speaker 1: want to think about about destroying your enemy. Sometimes you 162 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:31,720 Speaker 1: want to think about defeating the other side. And we 163 00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 1: want to win at the ballot box. We want to 164 00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 1: win on the battlefield of ideas. But isn't it this 165 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:41,160 Speaker 1: beautiful thing about this country that victory achieved the right 166 00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:44,360 Speaker 1: way means that it's a better country for all of us, 167 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:49,720 Speaker 1: even the leftists, even the losers, even the crazies. It's 168 00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:53,800 Speaker 1: a better America that's more secure, more rule of law, 169 00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:57,559 Speaker 1: more prosperity, more individual liberty. That is what That's why 170 00:10:57,600 --> 00:10:59,520 Speaker 1: I show up every day, That's why we do this 171 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:03,600 Speaker 1: thing that we're doing here on this show. So I 172 00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:05,680 Speaker 1: think a return to those first principles for all of 173 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:10,000 Speaker 1: us at this moment when I know so many feel dejected, 174 00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:16,160 Speaker 1: feel like they have been cast aside, and feel like 175 00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 1: we had a momentum. We had a moment and it 176 00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:24,400 Speaker 1: lasted for three years. The COVID year was something else. 177 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:29,200 Speaker 1: The COVID year through the whole project of making America 178 00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:34,360 Speaker 1: great again into this different cycle. We were just all 179 00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 1: locked down and trying to stay alive, trying to do 180 00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 1: what we can to help our neighbors and prevent the 181 00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:42,280 Speaker 1: government from shutting down more businesses and more churches than 182 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:46,840 Speaker 1: they already were. There's a lot of anger out there 183 00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:49,920 Speaker 1: and that's not going to go away. But we have 184 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:56,800 Speaker 1: to explore together, honestly, what is working for us, what 185 00:11:56,920 --> 00:12:00,320 Speaker 1: can we do, and what does the future look like. 186 00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:06,359 Speaker 1: The reasons for the march yesterday in DC were patriotic 187 00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:10,920 Speaker 1: and decent, and I support them and I'm with them, 188 00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:15,880 Speaker 1: and we have to also know that we maintain principles 189 00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:21,880 Speaker 1: even in the face of the most vicious, underhanded, cheating, 190 00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:28,960 Speaker 1: maniacal opposition. We cannot become that which we seek to defeat. 191 00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:31,680 Speaker 1: And I don't think we're even close to it. And 192 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:33,760 Speaker 1: we're going to talk about the double standards and all this. 193 00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:37,680 Speaker 1: We're gonna discuss all that on the show. But let's 194 00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:40,679 Speaker 1: all just take this moment to remember why it is 195 00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:43,640 Speaker 1: that we do what we do and what makes us 196 00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:50,000 Speaker 1: who we are as patriots, conservatives, Americans. What is it 197 00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:52,440 Speaker 1: that is so special about all you know or else? 198 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:54,280 Speaker 1: Why not just go live in New Zealand, Why not 199 00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:57,280 Speaker 1: just move to some other place? Right? No, we understand 200 00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:00,319 Speaker 1: that there's something special about this and we can tinue 201 00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:02,719 Speaker 1: to fight for it, and we'll do everything we can 202 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:07,200 Speaker 1: to preserve it, win or lose, my friends, that is 203 00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:12,160 Speaker 1: our mentality. We are warriors for the cause of our 204 00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:17,199 Speaker 1: ideological battles. Knowing that there is no guaranteed result, but 205 00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 1: that the fight is worth having anyway.

Violence never wins. Freedom wins. And this 212 00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:52,640 Speaker 1: is still the People's House. And as we reconvene in 213 00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:57,800 Speaker 1: this chamber, the world will again witness the resilience and 214 00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:01,839 Speaker 1: strength of our democracy. For even in the wake of 215 00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:08,480 Speaker 1: unprecedented violence and vandalism at this Capitol, the elected representatives 216 00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:12,400 Speaker 1: of the people of the United States have assembled again 217 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 1: on the very same day to support and defend the 218 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:22,120 Speaker 1: constitution of the United States. Let me ask you, do 219 00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:26,440 Speaker 1: you think that Vice President Pence is a good man? 220 00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:31,920 Speaker 1: Do you think that he loves this country? Do you 221 00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:36,880 Speaker 1: think that he knows as well as really anyone, with 222 00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:40,680 Speaker 1: perhaps the exception of the President himself, how much is 223 00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:44,640 Speaker 1: at stake here and how much could have been done 224 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:48,640 Speaker 1: for the good of the country had this election outcome 225 00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:52,720 Speaker 1: been different. I think we have to approach some of 226 00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:56,240 Speaker 1: these some of these questions in a systematic way so 227 00:14:56,320 --> 00:15:00,520 Speaker 1: we can all ground ourselves here. At a moment of 228 00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:06,960 Speaker 1: of particular disappointment and all this frenzy of you know, 229 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:08,720 Speaker 1: people that are not pointing fingers at each other and 230 00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:11,080 Speaker 1: everything else, what's really happened here, my friends, is we've 231 00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:14,600 Speaker 1: come to a recognition and it's one that I've been 232 00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:19,400 Speaker 1: trying to to edge us toward here. And I appreciate 233 00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:22,080 Speaker 1: so much that all of you know that what I'm 234 00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:24,800 Speaker 1: telling you, I think this thing is going to happen. 235 00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:28,000 Speaker 1: It's not when I'm talking about the Biden Harris presidency, 236 00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:31,680 Speaker 1: which is happening. When I say that, it's not to antagonize. 237 00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:35,360 Speaker 1: It's not because I like taking some kind of a 238 00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:38,880 Speaker 1: sour position or anything else. It's because we need to 239 00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:41,840 Speaker 1: get ready for what's coming. Psychologically and emotionally. We need 240 00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:47,880 Speaker 1: to be prepared for this because it's happening. And I've 241 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:49,320 Speaker 1: been saying it for weeks. And there are a lot 242 00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:52,960 Speaker 1: of people out there, and I don't like to do this, oh, 243 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:54,400 Speaker 1: you know, the other hosts and stuff, but there are 244 00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:55,840 Speaker 1: a lot of people that are playing this game, and 245 00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:59,400 Speaker 1: they're pretending that there was some last minute secret that 246 00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:02,240 Speaker 1: was going to say us from this. I'm sorry. I 247 00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:08,760 Speaker 1: look at you, my fellow Americans, my friendly Patriots team Buck, 248 00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:12,520 Speaker 1: I see all of you across the country, and I 249 00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:17,000 Speaker 1: feel like I'm here with you, waiting for this onslaught. 250 00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:20,040 Speaker 1: I'm not going to promise you that the cavalry is 251 00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:21,800 Speaker 1: going to come over the hill and we're not even 252 00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:25,640 Speaker 1: gonna have to take any losses metaphorically speaking, I'm not 253 00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:27,880 Speaker 1: going to make that promise because I don't believe it, 254 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 1: because it's not true. Vice President Pence, I think you 255 00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:34,720 Speaker 1: would agree with me, is a good man who has 256 00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:38,320 Speaker 1: been very loyal to this president, very loyal to the 257 00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:45,240 Speaker 1: MAGA agenda, and he is doing his best for America 258 00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:49,320 Speaker 1: under the circumstances, and he has been put in a 259 00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:53,160 Speaker 1: very difficult position. The people who are turning on Vice 260 00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:57,200 Speaker 1: President Pence right now, I think are forgetting that the 261 00:16:57,280 --> 00:17:00,440 Speaker 1: actions up to this point of individuals should have already 262 00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:03,440 Speaker 1: shown us what, you know, the totality of the actions 263 00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:06,600 Speaker 1: of people like Mike Pence should show us that we've 264 00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:10,760 Speaker 1: we've done what we can. It is possible, and if 265 00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:14,680 Speaker 1: I can, it's it's almost painful to say this out loud. 266 00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:16,840 Speaker 1: It is possible, friends, that we gave it everything we 267 00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:21,840 Speaker 1: had and we are fighting with everything we've got, through 268 00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:25,520 Speaker 1: all the mechanisms at our disposal, and we still lost. 269 00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:31,200 Speaker 1: And whether it's lost through cheating or lost through through 270 00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:35,240 Speaker 1: legitimate victory, even with some degree of cheating, which is 271 00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:38,000 Speaker 1: assured of course, So please, don't you don't need to 272 00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 1: tell me, Buck, you don't think there was. Of course 273 00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:43,560 Speaker 1: there was cheating. I don't know how much cheating. I 274 00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:46,520 Speaker 1: suspect it was substantial, but if you can't prove it, it 275 00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:49,960 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. We are dealing with that sense of 276 00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:54,480 Speaker 1: loss now. But with that loss also comes a recognition 277 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:57,879 Speaker 1: that we do have so much left to fight for 278 00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:02,960 Speaker 1: and so much more ahead of us. And also see 279 00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:05,879 Speaker 1: the way the other side is seizing upon this moment 280 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:09,359 Speaker 1: and understand that we're in for a whole new level 281 00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:13,560 Speaker 1: of fight. My friends, You're in the freedom hunt. This 282 00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:17,359 Speaker 1: is the Buck Sexton Show podcast. For more buck head 283 00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:23,480 Speaker 1: to Bucksexton dot com and remember to subscribe to the podcast. Fronto. 284 00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:26,679 Speaker 1: Reagan once said, peace is not the absence of conflict. 285 00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:30,600 Speaker 1: It is the ability to handle conflict by peaceful means. 286 00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:33,639 Speaker 1: The peaceful people in my state in Oklahoma want their 287 00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:36,760 Speaker 1: questions answered, but they don't want this what happened today. 288 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:38,800 Speaker 1: They want to do the right thing, and they also 289 00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:41,000 Speaker 1: want to do it the right way. They went onto 290 00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:43,440 Speaker 1: their constitutional process, but they also want to have debate 291 00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:46,080 Speaker 1: about election security because they want to make sure it's right, 292 00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:48,440 Speaker 1: which is why it's an important issue that still needs 293 00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:51,919 Speaker 1: to be resolved. Transparency and government just doesn't seem like 294 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:55,560 Speaker 1: a bad idea. Obviously, the commission that we have asked 295 00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:57,919 Speaker 1: for is not going to happen at this point, and 296 00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:01,399 Speaker 1: I understand that. And we're headed towards tonight, towards the 297 00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:04,440 Speaker 1: certification of Joe Biden to be the President of the 298 00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:08,159 Speaker 1: United States, and we will work together in this body 299 00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:12,159 Speaker 1: to be able to set a peaceful example the day's ahead. 300 00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:18,760 Speaker 1: That was GEOP Senator James Langford who was addressing the 301 00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:22,919 Speaker 1: Congress last night on the floor of the of the 302 00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:25,320 Speaker 1: Senate when he was saying, there's not going to be 303 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:29,200 Speaker 1: some commission, and this is it. This election's done. That's 304 00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:33,720 Speaker 1: where we are, and and I understand that that's so 305 00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:37,480 Speaker 1: disappointed to hear. And for those who are and look, 306 00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:42,040 Speaker 1: I you you are always I always welcome a criticism 307 00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:44,560 Speaker 1: from from people that I consider to be my side, 308 00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:47,520 Speaker 1: my own team, when it's in good faith. Right. So 309 00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:50,520 Speaker 1: when people write in with all caps, lots of curse 310 00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:53,119 Speaker 1: words and say terrible things about me, I'm like, what 311 00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:55,760 Speaker 1: what is that accomplishing? Right? But anybody who has a 312 00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:58,800 Speaker 1: valid or I shouldn't even say valid, has a good 313 00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:02,400 Speaker 1: faith criticism, I welcome it. And sometimes sometimes people write 314 00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:04,199 Speaker 1: into this show and I read and the first thing 315 00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:07,679 Speaker 1: I think when I read their comments about something that 316 00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:11,080 Speaker 1: I've said or about a direction we've gone editorially, is 317 00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:14,920 Speaker 1: they're right. That does happen? That does I want to 318 00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:16,480 Speaker 1: admit that to you. I know that there's a whole 319 00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:19,280 Speaker 1: a kind of radio industry built around people who are 320 00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:22,879 Speaker 1: never never wrong. Right. I don't do that, So that 321 00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:24,440 Speaker 1: does happen. So I don't think that I read these 322 00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:28,280 Speaker 1: things and don't realize that's a completely valid point, or 323 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:30,800 Speaker 1: even more than that, that they're they're right and I'm wrong. 324 00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:34,480 Speaker 1: So for those who are telling me and I think 325 00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:36,760 Speaker 1: we have to have this this is like a family discussion. Now, 326 00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:39,320 Speaker 1: That's how I view this. I sit here talking to 327 00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:41,479 Speaker 1: all of you as I would if there had been 328 00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:44,199 Speaker 1: some incident, you know, with my cousins or something, and 329 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:45,879 Speaker 1: we're all sitting down at the table to have a 330 00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:48,600 Speaker 1: discussion about what's gone on so we can move forward 331 00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:51,720 Speaker 1: in the most positive fashion. Because not only am I 332 00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:53,159 Speaker 1: on your team, I want to be a leader on 333 00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:54,959 Speaker 1: your team. I want to be somebody you can always 334 00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:57,520 Speaker 1: count on that you know is there for you. You 335 00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:00,919 Speaker 1: could trust me. I tell you the truth. I stand 336 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:04,480 Speaker 1: on the principles we share, and I even will show 337 00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:10,120 Speaker 1: some courage in public about difficult issues. But sometimes courage 338 00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:13,080 Speaker 1: means telling people things that aren't necessarily going to appeal 339 00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:15,200 Speaker 1: to them. And I think one of the one of 340 00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:18,399 Speaker 1: the challenges that we've had in the Trump era on 341 00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:21,119 Speaker 1: the right is that there has been very little space 342 00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:23,080 Speaker 1: for that. There's really been, and I'll just say it, 343 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:27,920 Speaker 1: there's really been almost no market for trying to criticize 344 00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:30,800 Speaker 1: the Trump agenda from or rather from a Trump administration, 345 00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:34,119 Speaker 1: not the agenda, the Trump administration, from a perspective of 346 00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:38,480 Speaker 1: how can we be more effective in achieving goals that 347 00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:41,840 Speaker 1: this presidency set out for? How can we do a 348 00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:46,439 Speaker 1: better job of getting these things? We created a bit 349 00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:51,919 Speaker 1: of a bit of a silo where all all of 350 00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:55,879 Speaker 1: the public commentary went into this one place and it 351 00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:58,880 Speaker 1: was Trump is awesome and he's doing all these amazing things, 352 00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:01,000 Speaker 1: and we were allowed to say, up is awesome, comma, 353 00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:03,040 Speaker 1: but I wish he would or Trump is doing a 354 00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:07,320 Speaker 1: great job on this. But you sit here and you say, well, 355 00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:09,879 Speaker 1: one place and for those you were wondering, what have 356 00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:13,360 Speaker 1: you said about this buck that would be an example 357 00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:16,280 Speaker 1: of this. Trump's picks for his advisors and for some 358 00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:18,480 Speaker 1: of his White House personnel was was abominable. I mean 359 00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:21,080 Speaker 1: it was truly awful, and there was a lot of 360 00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:25,359 Speaker 1: a lot of well he can't trust anybody, or well, 361 00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:27,959 Speaker 1: you know he meets family members around him, or all 362 00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:30,040 Speaker 1: all these things. You know, at some point you can 363 00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:34,040 Speaker 1: kind of justify anything in this realm. Is it serving 364 00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:36,480 Speaker 1: the president to do that? Is it serving the agenda? 365 00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:39,399 Speaker 1: Is it serving all of us? The president being in 366 00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:41,159 Speaker 1: the office. I know he was entertaining and he has 367 00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:43,760 Speaker 1: tweets were remaining, but ultimately he was trying to achieve 368 00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:46,160 Speaker 1: things for you and for me. Some of them he did, 369 00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:49,800 Speaker 1: but some of them he didn't. Does anybody want to 370 00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:52,120 Speaker 1: argue now that we have a big, beautiful wall from 371 00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:57,040 Speaker 1: sea to c to Shining Sea. We do not. And 372 00:22:57,080 --> 00:22:58,800 Speaker 1: I know that there are all these reasons and there, 373 00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 1: but we would have been more effective in getting some 374 00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:05,560 Speaker 1: of these things done if there had been more room 375 00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:09,720 Speaker 1: to be able to say, I'm on the team, but 376 00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:14,400 Speaker 1: you know this needs to be done differently. I'm sure 377 00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:15,920 Speaker 1: many of you have played team sports, so many of 378 00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:17,480 Speaker 1: you have. You know, you've been on a football team 379 00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:21,199 Speaker 1: or a basketball or lacrosse or whatever, and you know 380 00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:23,520 Speaker 1: you'll come together in the huddle. Is it. Is it 381 00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:27,040 Speaker 1: a good thing to say, guys, we're down, We're down 382 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:30,480 Speaker 1: by a lot at halftime, but you know what, we're amazing. 383 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:33,960 Speaker 1: Let's do everything exactly the same way we're doing I 384 00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:35,920 Speaker 1: was gonna say that there was a lot of that 385 00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:38,480 Speaker 1: within the GOP and you know that, you know I'm 386 00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:40,680 Speaker 1: telling you the truth. Every single one of you knows 387 00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:42,520 Speaker 1: that I'm telling you the truth right now. There was 388 00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:45,520 Speaker 1: a lot of that. It was we'll hold on a second, 389 00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:49,560 Speaker 1: maybe maybe we need a greater focus on this, or 390 00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:52,160 Speaker 1: you know, hold on, maybe the the outreach to Kim 391 00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:56,200 Speaker 1: Jong un isn't isn't a worthwhile expenditure of presidential time 392 00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:58,680 Speaker 1: and resources? And you know, and I'm not even saying 393 00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:00,680 Speaker 1: that was true. We're done. I'm just pointing out if 394 00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:03,760 Speaker 1: you said that, you were shouted down, if you said that, 395 00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:07,679 Speaker 1: people thought that you were no longer on the team. 396 00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:14,760 Speaker 1: And you know, the Democrats legally outmaneuvered. I want to 397 00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:16,560 Speaker 1: say legally, I don't mean that what they did was 398 00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:21,560 Speaker 1: necessarily legal, but they understood that changing these processes for 399 00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:25,080 Speaker 1: mail and balloting in these states, they knew that that 400 00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:29,359 Speaker 1: was going to give them an enormous advantage going into 401 00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:33,520 Speaker 1: the election, and they're needed to be legal challenges brought 402 00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:39,160 Speaker 1: and put the mechanisms in place for accountability and integrity. 403 00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:44,320 Speaker 1: Before the election. The RNC and yes, the Trump campaign 404 00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:49,440 Speaker 1: were asleep at the wheel on this again. I know 405 00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:54,719 Speaker 1: it's not comforting. I am telling you the truth. I 406 00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:57,119 Speaker 1: know it's not exciting, and you know it doesn't make 407 00:24:57,160 --> 00:25:00,160 Speaker 1: us all feel warm and fuzzy. This is what happened. 408 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:04,040 Speaker 1: And I think yesterday in a lot of ways, I 409 00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:06,040 Speaker 1: don't mean the incident even a Capitol Hill, I just 410 00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:09,120 Speaker 1: mean the whole The takeaway from the day with the certification, 411 00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:11,840 Speaker 1: everything else and all the people gather into DC was 412 00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:15,080 Speaker 1: we now have to stare truth right in the face 413 00:25:15,119 --> 00:25:20,160 Speaker 1: and handle it. We're there, friends, were there. The Democrats 414 00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:24,639 Speaker 1: won these two Senate seats. Democrats are going to be 415 00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:28,760 Speaker 1: the next president and vice president have the presidency for 416 00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:31,800 Speaker 1: the next four years. The Democrats have control of the House. 417 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:33,720 Speaker 1: Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer are going to be the 418 00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:38,480 Speaker 1: two most powerful elected legislative officials in the country. That's 419 00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:42,400 Speaker 1: where we are. And now we can get a little 420 00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:47,840 Speaker 1: bit into the tactics here the decision making. Let's all 421 00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:52,360 Speaker 1: understand this marching and DC I am. I was so 422 00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:57,399 Speaker 1: pleased that people were overwhelmingly marching and this whole thing 423 00:25:57,400 --> 00:26:00,400 Speaker 1: about being a peaceful march. You know, let's let's set 424 00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:05,480 Speaker 1: a different standard, a law abiding march, because remember, if 425 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:08,000 Speaker 1: we're gonna have marches that don't abide by the laws, 426 00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:10,840 Speaker 1: first of all, we're hypocrites because of the Do you 427 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:16,280 Speaker 1: know anybody that hammered BLM more than me in June? 428 00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:18,920 Speaker 1: In June this year, I'll really ask you that a 429 00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:21,320 Speaker 1: lot of Republicans are running scared, didn't want to be called, 430 00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:25,160 Speaker 1: Oh that's racist, don't criticize BLM. Did I ever back 431 00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:28,639 Speaker 1: down on that one? Was I ever saying, oh, you know, 432 00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:31,760 Speaker 1: you know, be BLM. We should we should concede to 433 00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:38,239 Speaker 1: this group and everything else. No, but we have to 434 00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:41,959 Speaker 1: establish what our principles are. And I know that sounds 435 00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:45,760 Speaker 1: a little hall monitoris sometimes right, Oh, another person, another 436 00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:48,199 Speaker 1: person in the media that's telling us about Oh, we 437 00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:53,679 Speaker 1: have two principles. I try to conduct myself publicly, you know, 438 00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:57,399 Speaker 1: as as in a way where I'm proud of what 439 00:26:57,480 --> 00:27:01,320 Speaker 1: I do. And I can always look my family members 440 00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:02,960 Speaker 1: and loved ones and people that matter most in the 441 00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:06,639 Speaker 1: eye and feel like I'm I'm proud and they're proud 442 00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:08,720 Speaker 1: of me because of the way I conduct myself. So 443 00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:11,120 Speaker 1: I don't do you know, I don't say horrific things 444 00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:14,520 Speaker 1: to people. I don't go after people in deeply vicious 445 00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:16,879 Speaker 1: personal ways and all this stuff. I try to establish 446 00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:21,920 Speaker 1: some boundaries. I try to work through through my day 447 00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:24,560 Speaker 1: to day of doing a show many many hours of content, 448 00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:27,520 Speaker 1: as you know, extemporaneous. It's all just flowing out of 449 00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:30,600 Speaker 1: my brain every day. And I try to do it 450 00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:34,480 Speaker 1: in a way that is advancing things and making I 451 00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:36,840 Speaker 1: try to do things that make it better, you know. 452 00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:40,040 Speaker 1: That's that's my approach. Now, let's talk. So why why 453 00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:42,240 Speaker 1: am I giving this preamble? Now, let's talk about what 454 00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:46,160 Speaker 1: happened at Capitol Hill, because I had a lot of people, 455 00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:50,440 Speaker 1: you know, oh I lost you know Twitter followers yesterday, 456 00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:53,879 Speaker 1: not all of them obviously, but I like probably thousands 457 00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:56,240 Speaker 1: of them on eyed people that are writing to me saying, 458 00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:59,240 Speaker 1: you know, what has the establishment done to get to me? Okay, 459 00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:01,160 Speaker 1: just put aside everything else for a second, but put 460 00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:04,920 Speaker 1: put aside that, you know, like so many others in 461 00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:07,280 Speaker 1: my generation, instead of going to Wall Street, I joined 462 00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:09,719 Speaker 1: the CIA so I could I could quite literally be 463 00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:11,760 Speaker 1: involved in the hunt for Osama bin Laden. I mean 464 00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:14,440 Speaker 1: put aside that I actually try to put my money 465 00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:17,359 Speaker 1: where my mouth is on different issues professionally and in 466 00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:21,119 Speaker 1: my life. It's not about me. Let's just look at 467 00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:24,320 Speaker 1: this tactically. We're having we're having a hot wash here, friends, 468 00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:27,879 Speaker 1: We're having a an after action report. What was the 469 00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:32,280 Speaker 1: point of people going inside the Capitol yesterday, breaking the law, 470 00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:37,240 Speaker 1: breaking windows, and and engaging in that behavior. What was 471 00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:41,600 Speaker 1: that for? I'm saying, put it, put aside whether you 472 00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:44,840 Speaker 1: think that this is called for or not for a second. 473 00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:47,560 Speaker 1: And I have been very clear that I think that 474 00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:50,400 Speaker 1: this was I've called it a blunder. I called it 475 00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:52,760 Speaker 1: a blunder on Tucker Carlson's show last night with four 476 00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:58,800 Speaker 1: million people watching, But what was it going to accomplish? 477 00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:03,280 Speaker 1: And I know we kind of people look at me there, 478 00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:06,000 Speaker 1: oh and some are some are gonna turn off, They're 479 00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:08,320 Speaker 1: gonna turn off the radio into the trump of the podcast. 480 00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:13,600 Speaker 1: I am your friend. We are in this together, and 481 00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:17,400 Speaker 1: I'm speaking to you with respect and honesty because this 482 00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:21,000 Speaker 1: audience that the greatest honor of my life to date 483 00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:23,400 Speaker 1: has been the people that listen to this show in 484 00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:27,080 Speaker 1: the numbers that they do, with the trust and the 485 00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:30,520 Speaker 1: respect that they do now going on many years. And 486 00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:32,600 Speaker 1: so I speak to you with that in mind. And 487 00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:34,080 Speaker 1: those of you who have met me in public, no, 488 00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:38,080 Speaker 1: I light up. I love when anybody from Team Buck 489 00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:40,320 Speaker 1: comes up to me and says, hey, are you Buck Sexton? 490 00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:42,200 Speaker 1: I like your show or something.

Every time it happens. 492 00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:46,040 Speaker 1: It makes me feel like what I'm doing here is 493 00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:49,880 Speaker 1: worthwhile because invariably, all all the people that do listen 494 00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:51,360 Speaker 1: to the show, that I meet in real life and 495 00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:52,800 Speaker 1: that reach out to me and that I talk to 496 00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:57,240 Speaker 1: and everything, there's such good people. There's there's a fundamental 497 00:29:57,320 --> 00:30:03,520 Speaker 1: decency and kindness, and they're just solid. They're just solid Americans. 498 00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:06,800 Speaker 1: And so that's how I view everybody who listens to 499 00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:09,240 Speaker 1: this show. And so that's why I also speak to 500 00:30:09,240 --> 00:30:10,760 Speaker 1: you the same way as I said I would if 501 00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:13,000 Speaker 1: there had been some incident within my own family. What 502 00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:15,240 Speaker 1: was it going to accomplish to have the stormy of 503 00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:19,440 Speaker 1: Capitol Hill? It was going to do what I mean 504 00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:21,719 Speaker 1: and real And for anybody who I know, a lot 505 00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:22,880 Speaker 1: of you agree with me, by the way, and a 506 00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:24,920 Speaker 1: lot of you feel like I'm but there there's there's 507 00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:26,760 Speaker 1: a contingent out there of people who are going to 508 00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:29,240 Speaker 1: be listening right now, and their approach will be, oh, 509 00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:33,040 Speaker 1: Buck has gone soft, or oh I thought you supported this, 510 00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:35,800 Speaker 1: and and I look, I'll take all that heat. And 511 00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:38,960 Speaker 1: that's fine, and you know you're all of you are 512 00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:42,280 Speaker 1: more than entitled to your opinions. But I'm going to 513 00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:44,800 Speaker 1: I'm speaking to those people now who disagree with me 514 00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:48,120 Speaker 1: on this but are at least open to hearing my 515 00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:50,480 Speaker 1: my reasoning on it, or at least open to hearing 516 00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:53,320 Speaker 1: why it is that I'm taking the position that I 517 00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:57,880 Speaker 1: do what was it going to accomplish? So so I 518 00:30:57,880 --> 00:31:00,880 Speaker 1: can take a step back. What does blam and what 519 00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:04,480 Speaker 1: do Antifa think they accomplish by doing what they do? 520 00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:08,560 Speaker 1: So we'll put a hold on even answering the question 521 00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:10,440 Speaker 1: what does be eliminenty? But what do they think they 522 00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:14,960 Speaker 1: get out of burning down stores, looting, rioting? And yes, 523 00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:17,480 Speaker 1: I know they over the Kavanaugh hearing, They you know, 524 00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:22,040 Speaker 1: flooded into the heart Senate building. Protesters you know, went 525 00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:24,240 Speaker 1: in there and in huge numbers, and this happens. They 526 00:31:24,280 --> 00:31:27,880 Speaker 1: took over the Capitol building and in Wisconsin years ago, 527 00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:31,080 Speaker 1: left wing protesters. I know about all that. Why do 528 00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:36,040 Speaker 1: they do that? They do it to intimidate people. They 529 00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:42,200 Speaker 1: do it so that everyday Americans are scared to oppose them. 530 00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:47,320 Speaker 1: It is about fear. That is why they loot and 531 00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:52,240 Speaker 1: burn down and destroy, And it's about exercising their own 532 00:31:52,440 --> 00:31:57,440 Speaker 1: feelings of rage. And it's about self. It's self gratification 533 00:31:57,840 --> 00:32:03,840 Speaker 1: and intimidation. That's why they do it. I'm just gonna 534 00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:08,000 Speaker 1: say it. That's not who we are. That's not who 535 00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:10,760 Speaker 1: we are. And everyone can get to get mad at 536 00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:13,360 Speaker 1: me and everything else. I would ask you this, what 537 00:32:13,560 --> 00:32:15,040 Speaker 1: would any of you ever think if I was with 538 00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:18,160 Speaker 1: you at a march that I would say, or that 539 00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:21,960 Speaker 1: I would, even in my on my own goat, run 540 00:32:22,040 --> 00:32:25,560 Speaker 1: up and smash a window and punch a police officer 541 00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:29,120 Speaker 1: in the face because I'm upset about politics. That's what 542 00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:34,120 Speaker 1: was happening yesterday. Okay, so we know why BLM, We 543 00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:38,640 Speaker 1: know why these these groups do what they do and 544 00:32:38,840 --> 00:32:43,160 Speaker 1: why it's wrong. What was the purpose yesterday of going 545 00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:48,080 Speaker 1: And it wasn't an insurrection, it wasn't a terrorist attack. 546 00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:49,960 Speaker 1: I understand all of that, of course, and we'll talk 547 00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:53,520 Speaker 1: about the media double standards. What was it going to accomplish? 548 00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:57,040 Speaker 1: The sad part of it is, you know what it did? 549 00:32:57,440 --> 00:32:59,000 Speaker 1: You know it because you know it didn't change It's 550 00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:00,720 Speaker 1: not going to change the It's not going to change 551 00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:09,600 Speaker 1: anything except it emboldens our worst, most dishonorable opposition. It 552 00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:13,600 Speaker 1: emboldens the left, and we are going to be paying 553 00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:16,840 Speaker 1: a price for this now on the battlefield of ideas 554 00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:20,960 Speaker 1: for some time. You know, I'm telling you the truth, 555 00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:25,240 Speaker 1: and you know that there is a lot of double 556 00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:28,640 Speaker 1: standard out there about this, and yes, we should address that, 557 00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:32,560 Speaker 1: and we will in a moment.

They 577 00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:38,839 Speaker 1: get to pick the president. They own their president, they 578 00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:42,880 Speaker 1: own the White House, they own this country. Disgusting. I mean, 579 00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:45,520 Speaker 1: you need to hear that, though disgusting? Did she not 580 00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:47,880 Speaker 1: have access you worked in a news organization? Did you 581 00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:50,760 Speaker 1: not have access to the Internet. A woman was killed 582 00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:55,040 Speaker 1: among the people entering Capital shot in the neck, and 583 00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:59,520 Speaker 1: there's a video of it, and it's graphic, and I 584 00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:03,520 Speaker 1: do not see the need for the use of lethal 585 00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:07,320 Speaker 1: force under the circumstances. I don't see it. I've talked 586 00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:09,240 Speaker 1: to I've talked to friends of mine of law enforcement. 587 00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:11,680 Speaker 1: I'm saying, you know, what, is there some you know, 588 00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:17,080 Speaker 1: barricaded public official exception or something. She wasn't an imminent 589 00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:20,520 Speaker 1: threat to anybody. She was killed, shot in the neck 590 00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:24,760 Speaker 1: through a door, but they still go with the preferred 591 00:35:24,920 --> 00:35:28,000 Speaker 1: narrative about this. We have now we have to disassemble 592 00:35:28,120 --> 00:35:32,799 Speaker 1: the lies of the left around what happened yesterday. You're 593 00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:36,319 Speaker 1: in the freedom hunt.

For me, the saddest moment 596 00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:48,200 Speaker 1: was watching them attempt to take down the flag of 597 00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:51,960 Speaker 1: the United States to put up a Trump sign. Think 598 00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:54,360 Speaker 1: about that for a minute. I think this is a 599 00:35:54,560 --> 00:35:58,239 Speaker 1: nine to eleven level event in the sense that we 600 00:35:58,320 --> 00:36:01,080 Speaker 1: are going to remember where we were, what we were 601 00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:04,120 Speaker 1: doing when we turned on the television and watched the 602 00:36:04,200 --> 00:36:08,279 Speaker 1: events yesterday. It is searing in my view, and I 603 00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:12,320 Speaker 1: for one will never look at a maga had again 604 00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:16,120 Speaker 1: without thinking of this day. And if you are a 605 00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:21,200 Speaker 1: decent American, put away your maga had, put away your 606 00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:28,840 Speaker 1: Trump flag. Remember what those symbols were used for on 607 00:36:29,080 --> 00:36:33,680 Speaker 1: this day. Settle down there, buddy. It's not a nine 608 00:36:33,719 --> 00:36:36,719 Speaker 1: to eleven moment. Our three thousand people died on nine 609 00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:41,880 Speaker 1: to eleven, Good, good, heavens. This was. This was people 610 00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:48,960 Speaker 1: making a bad decision to run on Capitol grounds and 611 00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:52,719 Speaker 1: destroy property. And someone lost her One person lost her 612 00:36:52,760 --> 00:36:55,839 Speaker 1: life as a result of what happened yesterday. And I'm 613 00:36:56,600 --> 00:36:59,239 Speaker 1: I'm still waiting to hear what the justic I've seen 614 00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:01,120 Speaker 1: the video THEO to me does not look like a 615 00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:05,840 Speaker 1: justified shooting at all. But I there, this was a 616 00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:08,360 Speaker 1: particular circumstance. You know, if you were if you were 617 00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:12,120 Speaker 1: barricaded in your home and there was a mob outside 618 00:37:12,200 --> 00:37:14,279 Speaker 1: coming through the door in the window, that's one thing. 619 00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:17,279 Speaker 1: If you're in the halls of Congress, I I'm open, 620 00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:19,680 Speaker 1: I'm open to being told I'm wrong on this from 621 00:37:19,719 --> 00:37:24,440 Speaker 1: what I see not a justified shooting. And think about this, 622 00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:26,560 Speaker 1: if that person could be shot, cool, could you open 623 00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:30,120 Speaker 1: fire on all the on all the rioters? Would you 624 00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:33,640 Speaker 1: open fire on all of them? Because the standard would 625 00:37:33,640 --> 00:37:35,560 Speaker 1: seem to still be in place that any person that's 626 00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:37,600 Speaker 1: smashing windows and going through doors you need to shoot 627 00:37:37,640 --> 00:37:40,520 Speaker 1: them if you're Capitol Hill police. So that that needs 628 00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:45,040 Speaker 1: to be looked at much more thoroughly than what we've 629 00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:47,320 Speaker 1: we've seen so far in the public discourse around it. 630 00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:50,840 Speaker 1: But this is where I tell you about the tactic, 631 00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:54,040 Speaker 1: the tactics part of all of this, and the assessment 632 00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:58,200 Speaker 1: that we have to do now of what we what 633 00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:01,080 Speaker 1: was lost as a result of this. For the movement, 634 00:38:01,640 --> 00:38:05,360 Speaker 1: they they are going to play this, They're going to 635 00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:07,719 Speaker 1: exaggerate it, and they're going to pretend that this is 636 00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:09,719 Speaker 1: the only political violence we've seen in this country in 637 00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:13,680 Speaker 1: four years. Is that enraging? Yes? It is. Is it 638 00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:20,640 Speaker 1: a lie? It absolutely is. But as as we look 639 00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:23,400 Speaker 1: at this, we also have to say, you know, to 640 00:38:23,560 --> 00:38:27,040 Speaker 1: take me back to the initial premise here, what was 641 00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:35,279 Speaker 1: gained by any of this? The answer is nothing. The 642 00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:40,200 Speaker 1: answer is nothing. And I don't really understand the mentality 643 00:38:40,280 --> 00:38:46,560 Speaker 1: why people feel like it's we we are not allowed 644 00:38:46,600 --> 00:38:48,439 Speaker 1: to now say that we do we draw any lines. 645 00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:51,719 Speaker 1: I just wantn't know what what would be for those 646 00:38:52,080 --> 00:38:54,120 Speaker 1: for those out there who think that this was a 647 00:38:55,719 --> 00:38:59,920 Speaker 1: in any way understandable And there's this fine line between 648 00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:06,000 Speaker 1: I understand all the anger, but I don't understand doing this. No, can't, 649 00:39:06,160 --> 00:39:08,520 Speaker 1: can't do it. And the left is now going to 650 00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:10,239 Speaker 1: use this in everywhere. They're going to ram this down 651 00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:16,359 Speaker 1: our throats for more authoritarianism and and for what right 652 00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:18,239 Speaker 1: there was? There was no gain from it. I know 653 00:39:18,320 --> 00:39:22,000 Speaker 1: people get mad at me. I'm telling the truth and 654 00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:24,439 Speaker 1: this if someone wanted to baby on this, we happen 655 00:39:24,440 --> 00:39:26,240 Speaker 1: to be at any person on this issue. It's important 656 00:39:26,280 --> 00:39:29,080 Speaker 1: that we get this right. We either have principles or 657 00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:32,239 Speaker 1: we don't. Right. We either and people are gonna tell me, oh, 658 00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:34,719 Speaker 1: but we have to fight the way that they fight. Really, 659 00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:36,719 Speaker 1: do do we want? I mean, and let's let's then 660 00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:39,279 Speaker 1: let's then take that, let's step further. Do we want 661 00:39:39,320 --> 00:39:43,680 Speaker 1: a right wing antifa? Do we want a right wing 662 00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:48,440 Speaker 1: group that goes around destroying stores, attacking people? The answer is, 663 00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:52,880 Speaker 1: of course not. But if you are going to say that, 664 00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:55,280 Speaker 1: sometimes we just got to break into a building because 665 00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:57,440 Speaker 1: there's there's no options left or are we're gonna tell 666 00:39:57,440 --> 00:40:00,480 Speaker 1: me that? Well, then where does that? When does that 667 00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:05,840 Speaker 1: go away? When when are we able to do that? 668 00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:10,560 Speaker 1: And I have to say now now we need to 669 00:40:10,640 --> 00:40:13,880 Speaker 1: understand we need each other more than ever because the 670 00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:15,800 Speaker 1: stuff that the left is going to be saying about 671 00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:20,279 Speaker 1: this for a long time to come is they're going 672 00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:23,560 Speaker 1: to leverage this one a lot. I would I wouldn't 673 00:40:23,560 --> 00:40:27,200 Speaker 1: be surprised. You know, social media has already you know 674 00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:31,040 Speaker 1: they've done this. They have banned Trump from Twitter, the 675 00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:36,040 Speaker 1: president of the United States. They have banned him from Twitter, 676 00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:40,840 Speaker 1: they have banned him from Instagram, and they have banned 677 00:40:40,960 --> 00:40:45,480 Speaker 1: him from Facebook as of today, and they're going to 678 00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:48,720 Speaker 1: keep the bands in place until the transition of power happens. 679 00:40:49,560 --> 00:40:53,680 Speaker 1: That's right. You have media companies now openly and actively 680 00:40:53,840 --> 00:40:57,600 Speaker 1: saying they are suppressing the sitting president of the United 681 00:40:57,680 --> 00:41:03,440 Speaker 1: States until they're the transition of power. This this is 682 00:41:03,520 --> 00:41:05,640 Speaker 1: where we are now. There's there's all this talk about 683 00:41:07,160 --> 00:41:11,719 Speaker 1: invoking the twenty fifth Amendment, and there's that that's, by 684 00:41:11,760 --> 00:41:15,200 Speaker 1: the way, a terrible I mean a terrible idea, A 685 00:41:15,480 --> 00:41:18,840 Speaker 1: terrible idea all right, that there's no reason, there's no 686 00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:20,840 Speaker 1: need to do that, There's no reason to do that 687 00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:24,400 Speaker 1: at this point. Um, we we are heading toward a 688 00:41:24,680 --> 00:41:29,319 Speaker 1: transition and an inauguration within two weeks, and I view 689 00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:32,040 Speaker 1: it as people would would just think that, you know, 690 00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:34,440 Speaker 1: the fix was even more in or you can't let that, 691 00:41:34,520 --> 00:41:39,840 Speaker 1: you can't let Trump be president for two more weeks. So, friends, 692 00:41:39,880 --> 00:41:41,960 Speaker 1: I I don't know. I would I would like to 693 00:41:42,040 --> 00:41:47,520 Speaker 1: be pointed toward the the conservative the conservative media person 694 00:41:47,680 --> 00:41:50,680 Speaker 1: out there for those of you again who who are 695 00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:53,239 Speaker 1: and I know some of you are, so it's it's 696 00:41:54,080 --> 00:41:56,560 Speaker 1: some of you are very frustrated that I'm telling you 697 00:41:56,680 --> 00:41:59,279 Speaker 1: these things and have been for the last last twenty 698 00:41:59,320 --> 00:42:01,279 Speaker 1: four hours. We'll really I've been saying for weeks now 699 00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:05,640 Speaker 1: that this is where we're heading in terms of the 700 00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:09,360 Speaker 1: Biden transition and Biden's going to be president. We've known this, 701 00:42:10,600 --> 00:42:14,000 Speaker 1: and I think the president, the president saying that there 702 00:42:14,320 --> 00:42:18,520 Speaker 1: is that there's election fraud is true. The president saying 703 00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:21,800 Speaker 1: that we have unanswered questions about the election fraud is 704 00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:26,000 Speaker 1: completely fair and proper. But taking it to this point 705 00:42:26,120 --> 00:42:29,480 Speaker 1: now where there's a belief that the election that we 706 00:42:29,640 --> 00:42:32,800 Speaker 1: don't we no longer have to respect the results of 707 00:42:32,920 --> 00:42:35,959 Speaker 1: the system as they stand. Well, now we're talking about 708 00:42:36,040 --> 00:42:39,239 Speaker 1: rejection of the system wholesale, and let's all be very 709 00:42:39,320 --> 00:42:41,920 Speaker 1: clear about that. And if that's where you want to go, 710 00:42:42,560 --> 00:42:45,879 Speaker 1: you're heading down a very dark and very dangerous path. 711 00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:51,239 Speaker 1: And that's not what we want, that's not what we 712 00:42:51,880 --> 00:42:57,759 Speaker 1: should have in our in our country. Yes, BLM and 713 00:42:58,640 --> 00:43:03,120 Speaker 1: Antifa are treated entirely differently by the press. Yes, they 714 00:43:03,280 --> 00:43:06,560 Speaker 1: burn things down, and the journalists go outside and they say, oh, 715 00:43:06,680 --> 00:43:10,400 Speaker 1: it's a mostly there's a mostly peaceful protest. Oh of 716 00:43:10,480 --> 00:43:13,839 Speaker 1: the ducking, whether molotov cocktails are flying past their heads. 717 00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:18,360 Speaker 1: The left gets away with political violence. It's not fair, 718 00:43:18,600 --> 00:43:24,080 Speaker 1: it's wrong. But the way we win is by convincing 719 00:43:24,239 --> 00:43:28,440 Speaker 1: and showing enough of our fellow Americans that this is disgusting, 720 00:43:28,520 --> 00:43:32,560 Speaker 1: it's disgraceful, and it is entirely coddled, if not supported 721 00:43:32,600 --> 00:43:36,640 Speaker 1: by the Democrat Party. And this makes it all much 722 00:43:36,719 --> 00:43:39,560 Speaker 1: harder to do that, which is why I don't I mean, 723 00:43:39,600 --> 00:43:41,400 Speaker 1: I don't approve of it morally, I don't approve of 724 00:43:41,440 --> 00:43:44,520 Speaker 1: a tactically, And for people are gonna tell me, oh 725 00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:47,520 Speaker 1: but buck, look what they're willing to do. I mean, 726 00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:51,080 Speaker 1: I wanted there's a special counsel for Russia collusion that 727 00:43:51,120 --> 00:43:55,719 Speaker 1: the Attorney General Barr has has already put in place. 728 00:43:55,800 --> 00:43:58,879 Speaker 1: I wanted a special counsel for Hunter Biden. I want 729 00:43:59,000 --> 00:44:04,719 Speaker 1: us to do what they did within the confines of 730 00:44:05,239 --> 00:44:09,239 Speaker 1: the law. That's where we you know, we have to 731 00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:11,960 Speaker 1: draw a line and we have to all be united 732 00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:16,120 Speaker 1: in that one. And is it is it hypocritical? Is 733 00:44:16,160 --> 00:44:19,840 Speaker 1: it a degree of madness for people who were cheering 734 00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:25,080 Speaker 1: on the left as they did their maniacal, you know, 735 00:44:25,239 --> 00:44:31,600 Speaker 1: destruction campaigns? Is it's disgusting. I absolutely hate it. I 736 00:44:31,719 --> 00:44:35,759 Speaker 1: think they're cowards. I think they're frauds. But one thing 737 00:44:35,800 --> 00:44:38,160 Speaker 1: that I will tell you, and this is and at 738 00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:40,520 Speaker 1: the end of the day, I actually spoke to my 739 00:44:40,880 --> 00:44:43,080 Speaker 1: I spoke to my family about this last Night's just 740 00:44:43,239 --> 00:44:46,400 Speaker 1: let them know. It is because I respect this audience 741 00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:48,920 Speaker 1: so much and because I respect what I do, that 742 00:44:49,080 --> 00:44:51,680 Speaker 1: I will tell you the truth. And that's what I think. 743 00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:53,520 Speaker 1: I'm i'm I think I do it every day. But 744 00:44:53,640 --> 00:44:56,200 Speaker 1: today that involves saying things that are going to make 745 00:44:56,239 --> 00:44:58,800 Speaker 1: some of you upset with me. You're gonna make some 746 00:44:58,920 --> 00:45:01,440 Speaker 1: of you on follow me and uh, and maybe you 747 00:45:01,520 --> 00:45:03,279 Speaker 1: know you'll take a break from listening to the show. 748 00:45:03,360 --> 00:45:06,239 Speaker 1: I can't change that. I won't lie to you, and 749 00:45:06,360 --> 00:45:08,640 Speaker 1: I hope, I hope you appreciate where that comes from. 750 00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:11,799 Speaker 1: That doesn't mean I'm always right you. If you think 751 00:45:11,880 --> 00:45:15,440 Speaker 1: I'm wrong, fine, If you think that I don't understand 752 00:45:15,480 --> 00:45:17,640 Speaker 1: the full scale of what's going on here and the 753 00:45:17,680 --> 00:45:23,280 Speaker 1: way this system is, that's you're completely entitled that opinion. 754 00:45:24,360 --> 00:45:27,640 Speaker 1: But I would hope that those of you who and 755 00:45:27,920 --> 00:45:31,200 Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't know who who agrees withdrawing 756 00:45:31,239 --> 00:45:35,000 Speaker 1: a line and the unhelpful nature of Yes, what percentage 757 00:45:35,040 --> 00:45:37,960 Speaker 1: of folks listening across the country you're with me? I mean, 758 00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:41,600 Speaker 1: I would guess it's maybe fifty fifty, sixty forty. I 759 00:45:41,800 --> 00:45:44,040 Speaker 1: don't know. That's that would be my estimate, and we'll 760 00:45:44,080 --> 00:45:45,640 Speaker 1: never have an answer for that. But that's just so 761 00:45:45,719 --> 00:45:47,759 Speaker 1: you know where my head is on this. But for 762 00:45:47,840 --> 00:45:53,000 Speaker 1: those who think that it's wrong to criticize the illegal, 763 00:45:53,120 --> 00:45:56,720 Speaker 1: and that's a completely separate thing than the hundred fifty 764 00:45:56,800 --> 00:45:59,880 Speaker 1: thousand or whatever it was people marching through the streets protest, 765 00:46:00,080 --> 00:46:02,080 Speaker 1: those are my brothers and sisters. Those are my people. 766 00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:05,200 Speaker 1: They listen to this show. They support me, They're the 767 00:46:05,239 --> 00:46:08,120 Speaker 1: reason I have a job. So I got nothing but 768 00:46:08,239 --> 00:46:11,080 Speaker 1: love and respect for them. But I tell people, even 769 00:46:11,120 --> 00:46:13,399 Speaker 1: the people closest to me, when I think that they've 770 00:46:13,480 --> 00:46:15,719 Speaker 1: made a mistake, and I owe that to all you. 771 00:46:15,760 --> 00:46:17,279 Speaker 1: And I said to my family last night, and they 772 00:46:17,480 --> 00:46:19,080 Speaker 1: God bless them, they back me up. I said, guys, 773 00:46:19,239 --> 00:46:21,720 Speaker 1: I've got to be principle. I've got to be true 774 00:46:22,280 --> 00:46:24,400 Speaker 1: to myself, to this work, to the audience, to be 775 00:46:24,440 --> 00:46:29,880 Speaker 1: principled at this point, and and that means staring, staring 776 00:46:29,920 --> 00:46:32,600 Speaker 1: into what is happening now and telling them what I 777 00:46:32,960 --> 00:46:35,239 Speaker 1: see happening. I don't think that you would find a 778 00:46:35,480 --> 00:46:39,480 Speaker 1: radio host who has seen more things, more trends, big 779 00:46:39,600 --> 00:46:43,640 Speaker 1: trends coming in recent months than I have, particularly when 780 00:46:43,640 --> 00:46:45,839 Speaker 1: you look at lockdowns and masks and all these things. 781 00:46:47,000 --> 00:46:49,839 Speaker 1: You know, it's interesting. I actually went on Michael Malice's show, 782 00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:53,200 Speaker 1: who is quite an interesting, quite an interesting guy. I 783 00:46:53,280 --> 00:46:56,440 Speaker 1: wanted to show, maybe almost exactly twelve months ago now, 784 00:46:56,560 --> 00:46:59,760 Speaker 1: and I said that Democrats would refuse to certify the election, 785 00:47:00,120 --> 00:47:03,080 Speaker 1: was my prediction on his show. And here we are 786 00:47:03,480 --> 00:47:05,440 Speaker 1: with a lot of Republicans who don't want to certify 787 00:47:05,520 --> 00:47:08,680 Speaker 1: the election. So I saw something, I just didn't see 788 00:47:08,760 --> 00:47:10,040 Speaker 1: which side it would be coming from.
