00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,720
Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travison buck Sexton

2
00:00:03,800 --> 00:00:07,880
Speaker 1: Show podcast. Welcome back in Clay Travis buck Sexton Show,

3
00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:10,559
Speaker 1: hanging out with all of you. Appreciate you guys. As

4
00:00:10,600 --> 00:00:14,840
Speaker 1: we roll through Tuesday edition of the program, we talked

5
00:00:14,840 --> 00:00:18,800
Speaker 1: about the COVID madness that continues to descend upon our

6
00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:22,800
Speaker 1: cities across our country. One of the other wild things

7
00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:26,439
Speaker 1: that's going on right now is an attempt to use

8
00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:30,639
Speaker 1: COVID as a justification for why the overall crime rate

9
00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:35,640
Speaker 1: is skyrocketing all over the country. Twenty twenty, we discussed

10
00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:39,840
Speaker 1: with you FBI data showed nearly a thirty percent increase

11
00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:43,320
Speaker 1: in the overall number of murders, which was the largest

12
00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:47,720
Speaker 1: increase on record. Things so far in many cities are

13
00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:50,960
Speaker 1: not getting better. It's likely that we are going to

14
00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:54,920
Speaker 1: see an overall increase from that massive increase in twenty

15
00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:59,160
Speaker 1: twenty in twenty twenty one as well, meaning that things

16
00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:02,120
Speaker 1: are not going to have gotten better in many of

17
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:06,480
Speaker 1: the places across the country. Why could that be occurring

18
00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:09,880
Speaker 1: and what is the overall impact on so many of

19
00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:14,080
Speaker 1: you all over this country? Well, this is interesting. Beverly

20
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:18,479
Speaker 1: Hills Police Chief Mark Stainbrook is willing to actually speak

21
00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:21,120
Speaker 1: out of course, Beverly Hills a part of Los Angeles

22
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:24,440
Speaker 1: where we have seen overall in the city of Los Angeles,

23
00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:29,240
Speaker 1: massive increases in crime all over California, and he says,

24
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:32,319
Speaker 1: the police chief there did does that the reason why

25
00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:36,319
Speaker 1: crime is surging is because California voters have been sold

26
00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:39,320
Speaker 1: a bill of goods when it comes to criminal justice reform.

27
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:42,760
Speaker 1: The California voters were sold this bill of goods that

28
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:46,760
Speaker 1: these laws would reduce the criminal population in jails, but

29
00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:50,640
Speaker 1: the money that was saved would be used for job placement,

30
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 1: drug and alcohol treatment, mental illness housing, those sorts of things.

31
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:57,840
Speaker 1: And we just haven't seen that those services on the

32
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:01,840
Speaker 1: back end to reduce crime, even if that were a

33
00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:06,520
Speaker 1: good plan, Clay over the long term, which is highly debatable,

34
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:10,800
Speaker 1: the notion that you should allow for what we've seen,

35
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:14,760
Speaker 1: which is the loosening of the enforcement of the law

36
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:19,120
Speaker 1: and the undermining of police simultaneously, and that that wouldn't

37
00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 1: result in people suffering. Now, you can talk about better

38
00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:25,880
Speaker 1: services and outreach and you know, all these things, and

39
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:28,160
Speaker 1: that's all on good by the way, that's already going

40
00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:32,760
Speaker 1: on at stunning levels in places like New York Los Angeles,

41
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,800
Speaker 1: where there's a you know, a massive you know, social

42
00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:39,760
Speaker 1: welfare and services state and operation of bureaucracy that's, by

43
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:42,119
Speaker 1: the way, highly inefficient and not very good at a job.

44
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:44,480
Speaker 1: But there's already all kinds of stuff going on with

45
00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 1: regard to that. But in the meantime, people get their

46
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:51,200
Speaker 1: homes broken into, get their stuff stolen, and get clubbed

47
00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:53,679
Speaker 1: over the head in New York City here when they're

48
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:56,600
Speaker 1: on the way to the subway. I mean, you know, crime,

49
00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:59,200
Speaker 1: all the crime that matters to use the crime, it's local, right,

50
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:01,280
Speaker 1: So I just want to make sure that we always

51
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:04,600
Speaker 1: keep in mind this is true of basically every major

52
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:08,120
Speaker 1: city across the country and most medium sized cities if

53
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:11,240
Speaker 1: you look at it places across the country. I've mentioned

54
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:13,520
Speaker 1: Whichitan Lanson because I crunch the numbers on those. There

55
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:15,639
Speaker 1: are others though, that are you know, in the less

56
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:19,760
Speaker 1: less than half a million range, a couple one hundred thousand,

57
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:22,040
Speaker 1: where they've still had big increases in crime. Portland a

58
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 1: city of six hundred thousand and a thousand shootings in

59
00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:28,040
Speaker 1: the last year, right, So Clay, what we have, though

60
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:30,800
Speaker 1: is a Democrat party that is in denial about this,

61
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:33,840
Speaker 1: because what are they gonna say, right, How are they

62
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:37,880
Speaker 1: pushed all this stuff like they had the panacea? Undermine cops,

63
00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:42,640
Speaker 1: more social services, less crime, everybody's happier, more social justice.

64
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:45,960
Speaker 1: What we've gotten is old ladies being clubbed on the

65
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:48,720
Speaker 1: head on the way to the store, those guys being

66
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:51,600
Speaker 1: led out the same day because no cash bail. People

67
00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:56,720
Speaker 1: being either not prosecuted for felonies or very lightly prosecuted

68
00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:59,839
Speaker 1: for felonies because social justice is going to be better.

69
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:03,720
Speaker 1: This is madness. AOC said just last week. This was

70
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:07,960
Speaker 1: the quote, folks, we have to talk about specifics, for example,

71
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:10,840
Speaker 1: because we're actually seeing a lot of these allegations of

72
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:14,640
Speaker 1: organized retail theft are actually not panning out. This is

73
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:17,560
Speaker 1: an interview last week. I believe it's a Walgreens in

74
00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 1: California cited it, but the data didn't back it up.

75
00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:23,560
Speaker 1: I mean, if this woman's living on another planet, she's

76
00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:25,719
Speaker 1: not even living in another country, she's living another planet.

77
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:30,799
Speaker 1: This is insane. Being concerned with the punishment of criminals.

78
00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:36,400
Speaker 1: Being too strong is a luxury of low crime. And

79
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:40,800
Speaker 1: I hate to sound like Matthew McConaughey in True Detective,

80
00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:44,760
Speaker 1: but time is a flat circle. What ends up happening

81
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:47,880
Speaker 1: over and over again is we go through the same

82
00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:52,760
Speaker 1: cycles in this country. People get convinced that police have

83
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 1: too much power, and there's a couple of viral videos

84
00:04:56,520 --> 00:05:01,279
Speaker 1: that go out and it becomes anecdotal evidence to support

85
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:05,080
Speaker 1: an indictment of police everywhere in the wake of George Floyd,

86
00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:10,640
Speaker 1: and the overall result is so eminently predictable. Crime skyrockets.

87
00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:15,520
Speaker 1: The people that are ostensibly being protested for are the

88
00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:18,200
Speaker 1: ones who bear the brunt of the crime because, make

89
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:22,320
Speaker 1: no mistake about it, Black Lives Matter, in an unbelievable

90
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:27,039
Speaker 1: irony leads to the more active Black Lives Matter protests are,

91
00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:31,920
Speaker 1: the more black people who die. That happens almost every

92
00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:35,159
Speaker 1: single city if you look at the data. The more

93
00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:38,560
Speaker 1: active and protests are, the less police are able to

94
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:43,159
Speaker 1: do their job, the media disappears, and the murderate skyrockets

95
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:45,720
Speaker 1: for those who are left behind in those cities. And

96
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:50,880
Speaker 1: so this is eminently predictable. It's why in twenty twenty

97
00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:55,520
Speaker 1: two we need to see a massive outreach of Republican

98
00:05:55,640 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 1: voters to repudiate, defund the police, and to let police

99
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,600
Speaker 1: do their jobs again and put violent criminals back behind

100
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:04,760
Speaker 1: the bars, I mean to me, even though people want

101
00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:07,520
Speaker 1: to pretend it didn't happen. Waukashaw is a perfect example

102
00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:09,760
Speaker 1: of this, Buck. You had a guy who never should

103
00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:13,719
Speaker 1: have been on the streets at all. Daryl Brooks was

104
00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:17,800
Speaker 1: a violent, hardened criminal who was allowed out with a

105
00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:23,040
Speaker 1: limited bail, and then, would we believe, committed racially charged

106
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:26,520
Speaker 1: murders in Waukashaw, and the media wants to pretend it

107
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:30,120
Speaker 1: didn't happen because the media directly has blood on its

108
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:32,880
Speaker 1: hands with what happened there. But so did the das

109
00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:36,640
Speaker 1: who are not enforcing the law and are allowing violent criminals.

110
00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:38,560
Speaker 1: You see this all the time, Buck, How often do

111
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:42,800
Speaker 1: you see whenever one of these incident happens, the person

112
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:47,480
Speaker 1: who does it almost never has any kind of clean

113
00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:50,159
Speaker 1: rap sheet, right. They have been in and out of

114
00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:55,080
Speaker 1: prison for years, violent crime after violent crime. They had

115
00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:58,279
Speaker 1: no business being out. This is happening all over our country,

116
00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:01,880
Speaker 1: whether it's Milwaukee, whether it's Nix, whether it's Houston, whether

117
00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:04,840
Speaker 1: it's New York City, Atlanta, you name the place, it's

118
00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:09,360
Speaker 1: happening everywhere. Clay, there was just a horrific fatal stabbing

119
00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:12,960
Speaker 1: in New York of a PhD student. There actually were

120
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:16,200
Speaker 1: two stabbings, one Columbia, the other D Right, I'm sorry,

121
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:20,200
Speaker 1: a Columbia PhD student. Right, Yeah, the Columbia PhD student

122
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:25,840
Speaker 1: who was stabbed to death, and unsurprisingly, the guy who

123
00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:29,920
Speaker 1: stabbed him to death had already been arrested eleven times. Now,

124
00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 1: I understand that the story that we're supposed to believe

125
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:36,600
Speaker 1: here from the criminal justice reformers out there on the left,

126
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:42,760
Speaker 1: the sauros thinking social justice, progressive prosecutor types, or whether

127
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:47,040
Speaker 1: the prosecutors are just individuals, but that that same mentality is, oh,

128
00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:49,360
Speaker 1: my gosh, some guy got caught for the third time

129
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:51,440
Speaker 1: stealing a pair of socks and he's going to prison

130
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:54,080
Speaker 1: forever for it, and that shouldn't happen. Now, by the way,

131
00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:57,280
Speaker 1: that shouldn't happen. But what also shouldn't happened is you

132
00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:01,520
Speaker 1: change laws that aren't really going to stop that, but

133
00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:06,760
Speaker 1: will result in people who have multiple felony convictions arrests.

134
00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:09,600
Speaker 1: I mean, once you've been arrested ten, eleven, fifteen, twenty.

135
00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:11,440
Speaker 1: In the case of a guy who hit an old

136
00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:13,160
Speaker 1: lady here on the street some months ago, but it

137
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:15,440
Speaker 1: went viral, because there's video of it. Literally just just

138
00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:17,360
Speaker 1: clocked an old lady in the head walking past her

139
00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:22,280
Speaker 1: broad daylight, an elderly woman. Guy's been arrested one hundred times. Okay,

140
00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:25,560
Speaker 1: So at what point do the Libs have to accept

141
00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:28,440
Speaker 1: that when someone's been arrested fifteen times, fifty times, a

142
00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:32,520
Speaker 1: hundred times, it's not because the system is so unfair

143
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:36,080
Speaker 1: to them, at least the criminal justice system. If anything,

144
00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:39,320
Speaker 1: it's too permissive, and there are people that need to

145
00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:42,040
Speaker 1: be taken off the street for the safety of those

146
00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:44,839
Speaker 1: around them. Notice, with COVID, you know you're a threat

147
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:48,000
Speaker 1: to other people if you breathe. But with violent felons,

148
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:51,120
Speaker 1: it's hey, come on, let's not be too harsh, let's

149
00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:52,880
Speaker 1: not get crazy. You know, this guy doesn't need to

150
00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:55,120
Speaker 1: go to prison. He'll only you know, he hit his

151
00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:57,760
Speaker 1: fifth old lady over the head with a hammer. Maybe

152
00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:00,200
Speaker 1: if we give him, you know, some more social service, says,

153
00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:04,959
Speaker 1: he'll stop hitting old ladies with hammers. The irony here, also, Buck,

154
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:07,360
Speaker 1: is that maybe the only thing Joe Biden's almost gotten

155
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:10,600
Speaker 1: right in his entire career nineteen ninety four Crime Crime Bill,

156
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:13,840
Speaker 1: which he now has repeated, the one thing and I

157
00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:16,480
Speaker 1: will say, right, there were Republicans at the time just

158
00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:18,679
Speaker 1: out of like sheer hatred of Biden. We're saying, oh,

159
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:20,440
Speaker 1: he even turned us, and I'm like, no, no no, guys,

160
00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 1: but that was that was actually good. That's actually that

161
00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:26,240
Speaker 1: was actually a good thing. And now we should be

162
00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:29,000
Speaker 1: hitting him for abandoning the one good thing that either

163
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:31,839
Speaker 1: that anyway, I mean, it's it's crazy, everyone's saying. I mean,

164
00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:34,400
Speaker 1: you know, we've got he'd just go down the list, right,

165
00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:39,600
Speaker 1: New York, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Phoenix, Minneapolis, all these cities. Claire,

166
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:43,040
Speaker 1: people listening to across the coy Houston, all right, shooting's

167
00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:45,800
Speaker 1: way up, crime way up. What the heck is going on? Democrats,

168
00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:49,120
Speaker 1: That's what's going on, folks. They're in charge. We're all

169
00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:51,840
Speaker 1: about pets on this program, yours ares. We love them.

170
00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:53,600
Speaker 1: We want our pets to be healthy and well fit.

171
00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:56,199
Speaker 1: One way to make sure that's happening is to give

172
00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:59,680
Speaker 1: them the benefits of a healthy food supplement. It's called

173
00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:02,440
Speaker 1: rough Greens, and it's meant to supplement the dry kibbleed

174
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:05,600
Speaker 1: dog food you're feeding your dog every day. Dry dog

175
00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:07,800
Speaker 1: food does not have the living ingredients your dog needs

176
00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:12,280
Speaker 1: for a healthy digestive system, vitamins, probiotics, enzymes, and antioxidant's

177
00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:15,319
Speaker 1: just the name a few. Those all come with Rough Greens.

178
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:17,640
Speaker 1: You sprinkle a little on your dog's food, you'll see

179
00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:21,160
Speaker 1: just how your dog loves it. The ingredients that are

180
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:24,640
Speaker 1: in it really help with your dogs overall, health, digestion, energy,

181
00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:26,599
Speaker 1: you name it. What you get is a happier and

182
00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:29,200
Speaker 1: healthier dog. Jason and Kansas is saying that with his dog.

183
00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:32,880
Speaker 1: He now tells us that his dog pushes the bowl

184
00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:36,079
Speaker 1: as quickly as possible so that mixed the Rough Greens

185
00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:38,920
Speaker 1: can be mixed in quickly. The folks at rough Greens

186
00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:40,680
Speaker 1: are so confident your dog is gonna love it. They've

00:10:49,800 --> 00:11:01,920
Speaker 1: dot Com slash eib, rough Greens dot Com slash eib. Yesterday,

191
00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:08,720
Speaker 1: the sum US some nineteen forty one, a date which

192
00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:17,160
Speaker 1: will live in infamy United States of America was suddenly

193
00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:22,720
Speaker 1: and deliberately attacked by naval of course, is of the

194
00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:29,600
Speaker 1: Empire of Japan. There we have Fdr Right after the

195
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:33,079
Speaker 1: bombing of Pearl Harbor. Evall, I'm sure heard that before.

196
00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:39,320
Speaker 1: Today is, of course the eightieth anniversary of the bombing

197
00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:43,600
Speaker 1: of Pearl Harbor. Clay and I both like to weave

198
00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:46,559
Speaker 1: history in or discussions here, and you know, Clay, it

199
00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:50,360
Speaker 1: is a reminder, I think, as first of all, so

200
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:54,280
Speaker 1: many things I actually just read for the first time recently.

201
00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:58,360
Speaker 1: I'd never actually read with the Old Breed, which was

202
00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:03,000
Speaker 1: largely the base for the series The Pacific Right, And

203
00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:05,480
Speaker 1: it's about a marine who was at a couple of

204
00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:09,400
Speaker 1: the nastiest battles in the Pacific Theater in World War Two,

205
00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:12,720
Speaker 1: and it's it's haunting to even read it. It is

206
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:14,960
Speaker 1: one of those things where you look back on the

207
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:16,959
Speaker 1: history of America and there have been a lot of wars,

208
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:21,680
Speaker 1: a lot of battles fought the Marines and the Navy

209
00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:24,480
Speaker 1: and everyone who served in general, but the Marines in

210
00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:27,679
Speaker 1: World War Two and the Pacific Theater, what they were

211
00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:32,760
Speaker 1: willing to go right into the teeth of almost defies belief.

212
00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:36,640
Speaker 1: I mean, it really was. The Spartans at the Pass

213
00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:40,520
Speaker 1: of Thermopoli outnumbered one hundred to one in terms of

214
00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:46,400
Speaker 1: just the risk and the unbelievable, you know, fearsome adversary

215
00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:49,160
Speaker 1: that they were up against, no doubt. And I think,

216
00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:54,360
Speaker 1: and you probably have noticed this too, they're oftentimes is

217
00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:57,360
Speaker 1: I think in World War two a bias towards coverage

218
00:12:57,559 --> 00:13:02,520
Speaker 1: of what happened in Europe because of the clear delionation

219
00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:06,680
Speaker 1: the Nazis, Churchill Hitler, the fact that the East coast

220
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:10,560
Speaker 1: of the United States is so much closer to everything

221
00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:13,400
Speaker 1: that was going on in Europe, and obviously d Day,

222
00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:16,760
Speaker 1: such that the war in the Pacific is in many

223
00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:21,880
Speaker 1: ways sort of ignored comparatively in terms of the scholarship

224
00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:25,200
Speaker 1: surrounding World War Two. And interestingly, there's even a little

225
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:27,360
Speaker 1: bit of an analogy with this in the Civil War,

226
00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:30,640
Speaker 1: the War in the West, which obviously wasn't that far

227
00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:36,080
Speaker 1: west at the time, but Tennessee, Kentucky, Georgia, everything in

228
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 1: the western theater gets a lot less attention than what

229
00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:43,080
Speaker 1: happened with Lee and Grant and everybody in the eastern

230
00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:47,920
Speaker 1: theater of the Civil War, in such that what happened

231
00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:51,480
Speaker 1: in Pearl Harbor and the shock of it all gets

232
00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:55,360
Speaker 1: way more attention than the battles that took place in

233
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:58,679
Speaker 1: all of the Pacific theater. Really what you get is

234
00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:01,000
Speaker 1: a lot of times D day, and then everybody skips

235
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:04,280
Speaker 1: ahead to the atomic bomb and overlooks in many ways

236
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:07,679
Speaker 1: what had to take place in the Pacific theater and

237
00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:12,280
Speaker 1: how savage that war was with Japan. Unbelievably high casualties

238
00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:17,920
Speaker 1: taken in conflicts like Guadalcanal, Ewo Jima, numbers that you know,

239
00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:21,000
Speaker 1: the modern world just wouldn't be able, you know, modern

240
00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:24,720
Speaker 1: Western societies wouldn't be able to handle a week of

241
00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:27,840
Speaker 1: what we were seeing in terms of those figures coming

242
00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:29,760
Speaker 1: out of some of those battles. And you know, you

243
00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:33,760
Speaker 1: mentioned the way that this has covered and historically how

244
00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:36,560
Speaker 1: kids learn about all this stuff in school. I'll just

245
00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:39,520
Speaker 1: say this, We all know that the evils of the

246
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:44,640
Speaker 1: Nazi regime were something that still almost almost defies defies

247
00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:47,680
Speaker 1: belief or defies possibility. How can any be that evil?

248
00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:54,120
Speaker 1: The Japanese imperial regime was really evil too, And anybody

249
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:59,200
Speaker 1: who fought in that theater, anyone who liberated POW's, anyone

250
00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:02,400
Speaker 1: who was you know, in the Philippines after the Japanese occupation,

251
00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:06,360
Speaker 1: spent any time in mainland China after the Japanese were through,

252
00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:09,760
Speaker 1: they allied with the Nazis. I think this is often

253
00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:12,800
Speaker 1: forgotten that they were, you know, the right hand in

254
00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:15,800
Speaker 1: the Far East to the Nazi regime, and that was

255
00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:18,240
Speaker 1: reflected in the way that they fought, in the way

256
00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:21,640
Speaker 1: that they treated bows, the way that that regime completely

257
00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:25,760
Speaker 1: dehumanized the enemy, abandoned all rules of warfare. And so,

258
00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:27,800
Speaker 1: you know, because we also still have this ongoing debate

259
00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:31,120
Speaker 1: about oh dropping the bomb, what we saw in the

260
00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:37,640
Speaker 1: various theaters, whether it was okanala Uojima, Guadalcanal, there was

261
00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:41,760
Speaker 1: a willingness to essentially turn these islands into trench warfare

262
00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:44,320
Speaker 1: battles and fight to the very last man. And that's

263
00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:46,840
Speaker 1: why we're taking such high casualties because we cleared out,

264
00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:51,200
Speaker 1: you know, our soldiers, our marines and the people that

265
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:54,640
Speaker 1: were on the front lines were clearing out yard by

266
00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:59,440
Speaker 1: yard these volcanic islands essentially that are that are almost

267
00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:01,680
Speaker 1: like a giant bunker, was the way they had been constructed.

268
00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:04,560
Speaker 1: So it was you know, I don't think there's really

269
00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:06,080
Speaker 1: gonna I mean a lot of people listening to this

270
00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:08,960
Speaker 1: are big World War two history buff so they know,

271
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:11,040
Speaker 1: but I don't think kids are learning this stuff. I

272
00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:13,280
Speaker 1: don't think they're understanding the full scope and scale of

273
00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:16,240
Speaker 1: what happened. I think it's well said, Buck, and not

274
00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:21,080
Speaker 1: only that this is living memory. You probably, Buck to

275
00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:23,720
Speaker 1: have been fortunate enough as I have to speak to

276
00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:26,840
Speaker 1: so many different people who thought both in the Pacific

277
00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:30,480
Speaker 1: theater and also in Your grandfather was on the USS Batan.

278
00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:32,720
Speaker 1: He was there for Lady Gulf, which was the biggest

279
00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:36,480
Speaker 1: naval engagement I believe in terms of ships involved in

280
00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:39,600
Speaker 1: modern history. And he rarely talked about it. But a

281
00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:41,480
Speaker 1: lot of you listening to this, I'm sure no. When

282
00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:44,320
Speaker 1: you talk to World War Two veterans toward the end

283
00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:46,520
Speaker 1: where the latter four or five years of the end

284
00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:49,240
Speaker 1: of his life, a few times he would talk about

285
00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:52,040
Speaker 1: what it was like for five days straight off Kamikaze's coming,

286
00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:53,800
Speaker 1: and he would just start talking about out of nowhere.

287
00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:56,760
Speaker 1: I remember I told this story a few months ago.

288
00:16:56,920 --> 00:17:00,960
Speaker 1: I think about my great uncle who had met Patton

289
00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:06,080
Speaker 1: in while he was serving in Europe. And Patton was

290
00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:10,480
Speaker 1: walking down the line and talking talking to the different soldiers,

291
00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:12,760
Speaker 1: and they had been out fighting for a long time,

292
00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:15,480
Speaker 1: and he stopped in front of my great uncle and said,

293
00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:17,760
Speaker 1: have you gotten a chance to kill any Germans yet

294
00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:20,400
Speaker 1: and he said no, and he said you will, kid,

295
00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:25,160
Speaker 1: you will. And the point I think that is so illuminative,

296
00:17:25,760 --> 00:17:28,800
Speaker 1: a lustrative in so many ways, is right now the

297
00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:31,639
Speaker 1: way American history is being taught. And I was a

298
00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:35,080
Speaker 1: history major in school, so I understand the concepts of

299
00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:38,320
Speaker 1: historiography and how we decide to tell the narrative of

300
00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:41,800
Speaker 1: the past. But we are skipping over the living memory

301
00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:45,200
Speaker 1: of the greatest generation. I believe thirty survivors of Pearl

302
00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:50,120
Speaker 1: Harbor are scheduled to be at the ceremonies today, and

303
00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:53,480
Speaker 1: we're skipping over the greatest generation and the legacies that

304
00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:58,560
Speaker 1: they have left us and are still here illuminating. And

305
00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:01,360
Speaker 1: instead we're going all the way back to sixteen nineteen

306
00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:04,480
Speaker 1: and trying to argue that America has founded as a

307
00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:08,560
Speaker 1: fundamentally unfair and unjust country. And we're skipping right over

308
00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:12,160
Speaker 1: your point, Buck, which is we went to war with

309
00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:16,440
Speaker 1: the Nazis and with their allies in Japan, who were

310
00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:21,960
Speaker 1: determined to effectively destroy freedoms in the world in the

311
00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:25,320
Speaker 1: living memory of many people that are here with us

312
00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:28,440
Speaker 1: right now, and we're trying to pretend that that isn't

313
00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:32,399
Speaker 1: the actual legacy of America when it clearly is, and

314
00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:37,359
Speaker 1: it's just so fundamentally a lie that it's why those

315
00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:41,359
Speaker 1: generations and people who are closer to them are so patriotic,

316
00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:46,000
Speaker 1: because they understand what America represents, and younger generations are

317
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:48,960
Speaker 1: being taught Hey, four hundred years ago, America was a

318
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:51,600
Speaker 1: bad place, and so you should hate this country today.

319
00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:56,840
Speaker 1: It's a fundamental failure of our country to own our

320
00:18:56,880 --> 00:19:00,200
Speaker 1: country's history in an honest and transparent way. There our

321
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:03,560
Speaker 1: parents and grandparents and maybe even some you know, some

322
00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:06,840
Speaker 1: listening right now. We're there and saw some of this themselves.

323
00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:09,320
Speaker 1: But a lot of the people listening have parents and

324
00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:16,440
Speaker 1: grandparents who prevented a global totalitarianism from turning us all

325
00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:21,159
Speaker 1: into slaves of an authoritarian system. That is the legacy

326
00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:23,359
Speaker 1: of America within the last hundred years, which is a

327
00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:25,800
Speaker 1: pretty remarkable thing when you think about it. By the way,

328
00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:28,879
Speaker 1: it wasn't just the Nazis and the Imperial Japan and

329
00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:32,359
Speaker 1: their allies. It's also the Soviet Union, which we worked

330
00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:34,959
Speaker 1: with in the Second World War kind of because we

331
00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:37,359
Speaker 1: had to under the circumstances. The whole other conversation we

332
00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:42,159
Speaker 1: had about how really twin you know, cousins of the

333
00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:45,919
Speaker 1: evils of authoritarianism, the Soviet regime and the Nazi regime,

334
00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:49,520
Speaker 1: socialist evils by the way, and and yet here we

335
00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:52,040
Speaker 1: are now, as tier Point Clay, being told constantly that

336
00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:54,919
Speaker 1: America is a bad place. And I know, we make

337
00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:56,680
Speaker 1: jokes about how, you know, the French would be speaking

338
00:19:56,720 --> 00:20:00,240
Speaker 1: German if it weren't for us, but it's true. It's

339
00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:02,480
Speaker 1: also worth remembering that. Yeah, we can all kid about

340
00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:04,639
Speaker 1: it now, but thanks to the you know, thanks to

341
00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:07,679
Speaker 1: some of the dads and granddads of people listening to

342
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:10,080
Speaker 1: this program right now, and many people all across the country,

343
00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:12,840
Speaker 1: we actually do live in a free society. And it

344
00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:14,520
Speaker 1: is worth it is worth fighting for. It's something to

345
00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:17,280
Speaker 1: remind ourselves that are right. I mean, whatever, whatever day

346
00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:19,920
Speaker 1: we're dealing with, Clay, with the craziness of the left.

347
00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:22,720
Speaker 1: These days, we're not being asked to charge a machine

348
00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:26,040
Speaker 1: gun nest at Guadalcanal when the chance of getting through

349
00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:31,120
Speaker 1: that one alive is anybody's guests. Think about the difference

350
00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:35,080
Speaker 1: buck between people today who call others they disagree with

351
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:39,399
Speaker 1: Nazis on social media, as opposed to the grandfathers and

352
00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:41,520
Speaker 1: fathers of many of the people listening right now who

353
00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:44,520
Speaker 1: had to fight actual Nazis. That's where we are as

354
00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:48,240
Speaker 1: a country. We have the legacy to now be able

355
00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:51,800
Speaker 1: to just yell at people anonymously online who say mean

356
00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:54,560
Speaker 1: things or things that may make us unhappy. Those guys

357
00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:58,960
Speaker 1: had to actually risk their lives fighting legitimate Nazis. We're

358
00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:00,720
Speaker 1: gonna switch gears here for I can we all say

359
00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:04,560
Speaker 1: some calls? Eight hundred two eight two two eight eight two,

360
00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:05,960
Speaker 1: So if you want to give us a ring, I

361
00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:08,000
Speaker 1: think we've got some calls lit. And we've also got

362
00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:12,200
Speaker 1: a segment coming up with someone from the Border Patrol

363
00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:14,240
Speaker 1: Union tell us what the heck is going on the

364
00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:16,280
Speaker 1: US Mexico board. I'll get the top of the next hour.

365
00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:18,919
Speaker 1: That's all coming up. Why not start off the new

366
00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:21,480
Speaker 1: year with a cost saving on your everyday cell phone bill?

367

Speaker 1: from a leading cell phone carrier. What you wouldn't expect

374
00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:45,560

Speaker 1: give us five star. Lots of discussion points all about

391
00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:43,520
Speaker 1: the latest COVID madness. We talked with Alex Barnson at

392
00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:46,560
Speaker 1: the top of the second hour. He was fantastic as well.

393
00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:51,600
Speaker 1: So many different angles to discuss so far in the

394
00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:55,320
Speaker 1: program and we bring in now. One of the biggest

395
00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:59,399
Speaker 1: stories and biggest failings of many failings in the Biden

396
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:03,600
Speaker 1: administration is what's going on at our southern border. We

397
00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:06,960
Speaker 1: bring in now. Brandon Judd. He's the president of the

398
00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:11,720
Speaker 1: National Border Patrol Council, which represents rank and file border

399
00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:16,040
Speaker 1: patrol agents nationwide. He had an op ed yesterday with

400
00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:19,960
Speaker 1: Fox where Brandon reported that in the month of November,

401
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:24,160
Speaker 1: the Border Patrol recorded more than fifty two thousand gotaways

402
00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:28,160
Speaker 1: on the southwest border. Enough people that I'm reading from

403
00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:32,639
Speaker 1: his article to fill Joe Biden's hometown of Greenville, Delaware

404
00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:38,560
Speaker 1: twenty two times. Brandon, is there any suggestion that the

405
00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:42,800
Speaker 1: Biden administration basically throwing up their arms and re embracing

406
00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:46,199
Speaker 1: what the Trump administration had done with the remain in

407
00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:50,360
Speaker 1: Mexico policy? Is going to fix what has been a

408
00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:53,960
Speaker 1: sieve at our southern border? Or is it possible for

409
00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:57,440
Speaker 1: the Biden administration to fix the mess that exists right now?

410
00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:00,320
Speaker 1: It is possible for them to fix it. Are they

411
00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:04,080
Speaker 1: actually going to implement Trump's policies? No, They're not going to.

412
00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:07,120
Speaker 1: They've They've blocked themselves in a corner. They know darn

413
00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:10,120
Speaker 1: good andwell that if they implement the Micron Protection Protocols

414
00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:12,880
Speaker 1: or more commonly not as Romane Mexico, they know darn

415
00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:15,880
Speaker 1: good andwell that if they implement it properly, illegal border

416
00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:19,040
Speaker 1: crossings will drop to historic lows. And if it drops

417
00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:21,119
Speaker 1: to historic lows, then they're going to have to admit

418
00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:22,919
Speaker 1: that they were wrong. They're going to have to admit

419
00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:25,640
Speaker 1: that Trump got it right, that his border security policies

420
00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:28,760
Speaker 1: were good, and that they were wrong for causing all

421
00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:31,080
Speaker 1: the chaos that they cause. They're not going to do it,

422
00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:33,480
Speaker 1: which is why they're slow rolling it right now. I mean,

423
00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:38,399
Speaker 1: we're only in rolling around thirty people at any given

424
00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:42,440
Speaker 1: time into the Micron Protection protocols. So no, I don't

425
00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:44,920
Speaker 1: think that they're going to actually implement it properly because

426
00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:47,639
Speaker 1: they know if they do, it's gonna work. Hey, Brandon,

427
00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:50,880
Speaker 1: it's buck. So basically they're saying they're doing this so

428
00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:53,639
Speaker 1: that then they can say they're doing something, because the

429
00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:57,960
Speaker 1: alternative is the continuation of the de facto open border

430
00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:00,880
Speaker 1: status quo. And I've been down there in some months,

431
00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:02,720
Speaker 1: but last time I was down there at the border, Brandon,

432
00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:05,119
Speaker 1: they were just the border patrol agents were telling me,

433
00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:10,800
Speaker 1: they are overwhelmed, overstretched, to put it mildly, and that

434
00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:15,240
Speaker 1: people who want to run illicit contraband drugs, human smuggling

435
00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:19,280
Speaker 1: into the country. Apart from the situation of the migrants

436
00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:22,280
Speaker 1: who are surrending them surrendering themselves and claiming incredible fear,

437
00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:25,240
Speaker 1: it's just all out of control. Can you give us

438
00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:27,879
Speaker 1: a sense of where we are right now with the

439
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:31,439
Speaker 1: year in the you know, the overall year numbers, like

440
00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:36,560
Speaker 1: how many illegals have actually crossed in? How many goataways

441
00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:38,000
Speaker 1: are we having a month? I mean, I think that

442
00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:40,320
Speaker 1: puts it into perspective for everybody. And are we hitting

443
00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:42,080
Speaker 1: all time records? I mean, have we ever had a

444
00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:45,680
Speaker 1: year that's this open. So in Sistal year twenty one,

445
00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:49,080
Speaker 1: which ended at the end of September, we broke all

446
00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:52,520
Speaker 1: records in both apprehensions and goataways. We had more than

447
00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:56,640
Speaker 1: four hundred thousand gataways. In twenty one alone, we had

448
00:25:56,880 --> 00:26:00,400
Speaker 1: nearly one point seven million apprehensions, and the first two

449
00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:03,800
Speaker 1: months of this fiscal year we already have one hundred

450
00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:06,680
Speaker 1: thousand gataways. Now on the outfit, I wrote fifty two

451
00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:09,399
Speaker 1: thousand in the month of November. But to couple that

452
00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:11,560
Speaker 1: with the forty eight thousand, and it's just just just

453
00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:15,760
Speaker 1: under forty eight thousand in the month of October, and

454
00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:19,200
Speaker 1: we're already at one hundred thousand in two months. We're

455
00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:23,240
Speaker 1: on pace to go six hundred thousand gataways and on

456
00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:27,400
Speaker 1: top of that, we're on pace to make two million apprehensions. Yeah,

457
00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:32,480
Speaker 1: this just it's they this administration refuses to define the problem.

458
00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:38,440
Speaker 1: And if they refuse to call this um you know,

459
00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:41,280
Speaker 1: the chaos that they've caused. If they refuse to define

460
00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:43,080
Speaker 1: the problem, they're not going to come up with the

461
00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:45,440
Speaker 1: solutions they need. I mean, all they say is, well,

462
00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:48,320
Speaker 1: it's a challenge. It's it's a it's a challenge. It's

463
00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:50,800
Speaker 1: not a crisis. It's challenge. So if you don't define

464
00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:54,280
Speaker 1: it as a crisis, you're not going to develop the policies,

465
00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:57,760
Speaker 1: the programs, the operations that is going to allow us

466
00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:01,360
Speaker 1: to fix the problem. They're just not going Brandon, thanks

467
00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:04,639
Speaker 1: for coming on with us. Several months ago, the Fox

468
00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:07,679
Speaker 1: News was able to report on a mass collection of

469
00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:11,080
Speaker 1: illegal immigrants, many of them Haitian, underneath the bridge if

470
00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:15,399
Speaker 1: I remember correctly, in Del Rio, Texas. They then cleaned

471
00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:19,359
Speaker 1: up that huge mass of people. But my understanding is

472
00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:22,879
Speaker 1: the vast majority of those people were just allowed into

473
00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:26,399
Speaker 1: the country. How many people that are coming across the

474
00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:31,200
Speaker 1: border illegally are just being allowed to enter into the country,

475
00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:33,040
Speaker 1: being given a report that they have to show up

476
00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:36,000
Speaker 1: at CORD or whatever else, But then we just never

477
00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:38,840
Speaker 1: end up hearing from those people. You talk about getaways

478
00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:40,920
Speaker 1: and people who get across the border and all those things,

479
00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:43,760
Speaker 1: But we're releasing a lot of these people into the

480
00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:46,320
Speaker 1: country with the hope that they're going to show up

481
00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:49,520
Speaker 1: for these court proceedings when many of them aren't. Isn't

482
00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:52,320
Speaker 1: that a reality of what's going on? It is? It

483
00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:55,240
Speaker 1: is it's called a notice to appear. We will issue

484
00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:59,800
Speaker 1: notices to appear or notices to report NTA ntrs. With

485
00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:03,480
Speaker 1: those NTAs, we give them a de facto legal status.

486
00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:08,359
Speaker 1: So so imagine this, You cross the border illegally, you

487
00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:11,960
Speaker 1: you break our laws, and then you're rewarded by giving

488
00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:15,159
Speaker 1: by being given a de facto legal status and release.

489
00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:18,919
Speaker 1: The Border Patrol alone released UM approximately one hundred and

490
00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:22,960
Speaker 1: fifty thousand people with NTA's UM in fiscal year twenty one,

491
00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:26,159
Speaker 1: then ice released just as many UM. Then then you

492
00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:29,520
Speaker 1: also have to consider the kind accompanied hum children that

493
00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:33,399
Speaker 1: were released to HHS r R. That's helping Human Services Office,

494
00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:36,920
Speaker 1: the Refugee re Settlements. UM. They then release people to

495
00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:40,400
Speaker 1: UH to foster homes. UM. It was nearly six hundred

496
00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:43,880
Speaker 1: thousand people were released in fiscal years so so yeah, no,

497
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:47,320
Speaker 1: I mean those are astronomical numbers. Wow, four hundred thousand

498
00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:52,000
Speaker 1: gotaways and then six hundred thousand people were released with

499
00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:55,360
Speaker 1: NTAs or ntrs. A million people. That's how many people

500
00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:59,760
Speaker 1: we added illegally to our population in fiscal year twenty one.

501
00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:03,600
Speaker 1: Brandon Judd, president of a National Border Patrol Council. He's

502
00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:08,080
Speaker 1: got a great op ed on Foxnews dot Com published yesterday. Brandon,

503
00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:12,800
Speaker 1: where does this? Where does this go? I mean, at

504
00:29:12,880 --> 00:29:16,360
Speaker 1: some point you have to wonder how it's possible that

505
00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:19,640
Speaker 1: this can continue as it is, with the numbers just

506
00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:23,640
Speaker 1: growing and growing month after month without some real I mean,

507
00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:26,440
Speaker 1: the American people are very actually when they pull them

508
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:29,120
Speaker 1: dialed in on the issue of immigration, think that I

509
00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:33,480
Speaker 1: legal immigration is an important challenge to deal with, and

510
00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:36,480
Speaker 1: yet there seems to be not only no political urgency

511
00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:38,680
Speaker 1: in DC right now to the Biden regime to do

512
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:41,880
Speaker 1: anything about it, but obviously there's a general media blackout.

513
00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:43,080
Speaker 1: One of the reasons why we want to have you

514
00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:45,600
Speaker 1: on is to just keep making sure that we get

515
00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:48,440
Speaker 1: the information out there all across the country. Where do

516
00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:51,400
Speaker 1: you see this going? I mean, is this basically I'm

517
00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:53,280
Speaker 1: asking it. Does it seem like the people in charge

518
00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:57,440
Speaker 1: right now like what's happening? Yeah? It does? It does

519
00:29:57,480 --> 00:29:59,400
Speaker 1: it looks like they're pandering to their base. That it

520
00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:02,960
Speaker 1: truly it truly feels like this is a lane duck administration.

521
00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:05,320
Speaker 1: It feels like they know that they're a one and

522
00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:08,320
Speaker 1: done and so they're going to try to get as

523
00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:12,920
Speaker 1: much done to satisfy their liberal base as they possibly can. Um.

524
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:16,920
Speaker 1: You know, it's funny because as much as as much

525
00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:18,920
Speaker 1: as I love put on the uniform and going out

526
00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:21,760
Speaker 1: and control the border, I'm heavily involved in politics for

527
00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:25,760
Speaker 1: my membership and any any intelligent person knowing what Biden's

528
00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:28,400
Speaker 1: age was, you know, we all wondered when he won,

529
00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:31,760
Speaker 1: you know, is he really going to run for reelection?

530
00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:34,080
Speaker 1: Because if he is, he's going to be a centrist.

531
00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:36,200
Speaker 1: He's going to be right down in the middle. Obama

532
00:30:36,680 --> 00:30:39,120
Speaker 1: in his first term he was he was pretty much

533
00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:40,800
Speaker 1: down in the middle, and then of course when he

534
00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:45,840
Speaker 1: won reelection, that's when he started legislating through executive order.

535
00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:50,160
Speaker 1: But this administration, it truly feels like they know that

536
00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:52,160
Speaker 1: they're a one and done, so they're trying to do

537
00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:55,080
Speaker 1: as much to satisfy their liberal base as they possibly

538
00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:57,920
Speaker 1: can in the four years that they have brandon Joe

539
00:30:57,920 --> 00:30:59,560
Speaker 1: Biden's people have tried to make a big deal of

540
00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:02,520
Speaker 1: the fact that he's not been to the borders, as

541
00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:04,560
Speaker 1: it not mattering, and that he had been to the

542
00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:07,600
Speaker 1: border at El Paso back when he was running for president,

543
00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:09,920
Speaker 1: I think in two thousand and eight or whatever. They

544
00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:13,120
Speaker 1: tried to say, why does it matter for the president

545
00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:15,600
Speaker 1: based on the people that you represent, to come to

546
00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:18,280
Speaker 1: the border and see for himself what is happening there.

547
00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:21,600
Speaker 1: As much as I hated the Hastian crisis, as much

548
00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:26,360
Speaker 1: as I hated seeing how much stress my fellow agents

549
00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:30,040
Speaker 1: were under in that particular stretch of border, it was

550
00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:32,720
Speaker 1: great that the American public got the visual. It was

551
00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:35,880
Speaker 1: great that they got to see what is actually happening

552
00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:38,680
Speaker 1: on the border. You know, we had at the top number,

553
00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:42,080
Speaker 1: we had about fourteen thousand people under that bridge, but

554
00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:46,840
Speaker 1: we're arresting between five and seven thousand people every single day.

555
00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:49,480
Speaker 1: Every single day, we're arresting more than a caravan every

556
00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:52,840
Speaker 1: single day. And unless you come down here and actually

557
00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:56,800
Speaker 1: see it, you will not get you will not understand

558
00:31:56,800 --> 00:31:59,480
Speaker 1: the full magnitude of what's taking place if you don't

559
00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:03,400
Speaker 1: go into the process. I look back in in twenty

560
00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:08,040
Speaker 1: nineteen when when Vice President Pence went to McCallen, he

561
00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:11,479
Speaker 1: went into the processing center, he saw how bad it was,

562
00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:14,920
Speaker 1: and it was like night and day the changes that

563
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:18,160
Speaker 1: they made. Um. And so if you do not come

564
00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:21,560
Speaker 1: down and actually see for yourself what is going on,

565
00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:25,880
Speaker 1: it's just like defining the issue. If you don't see it,

566
00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:27,520
Speaker 1: if you don't define it, you're never going to come

567
00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:30,160
Speaker 1: up with the solutions. And that's the problem. And let's

568
00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:33,760
Speaker 1: be clear, Um, Joe Biden didn't come to the border.

569
00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:38,480
Speaker 1: He drove through El Paso. UM, you know, it's it's

570
00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:41,000
Speaker 1: a it's a far cry to drive through a border

571
00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:44,320
Speaker 1: city to then actually going out on the border looking

572
00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:48,040
Speaker 1: at seeing whether or not we have the resources that

573
00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:51,320
Speaker 1: are necessary, seeing all of the different things aspects on

574
00:32:51,320 --> 00:32:53,600
Speaker 1: the border. All he did was drove through El Paso.

575
00:32:53,720 --> 00:32:57,000
Speaker 1: He's never been to the border Brandon, just want to

576
00:32:57,000 --> 00:32:58,880
Speaker 1: know before we let you get back to speaking for

577
00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:02,520
Speaker 1: the mediment of border Roll, how's their morale? How are

578
00:33:02,520 --> 00:33:06,000
Speaker 1: they feeling about the mission and what they're being asked

579
00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:09,360
Speaker 1: to do day in and day out. So twenty four

580
00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:13,160
Speaker 1: years I've been doing this job, I've never seen the

581
00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:16,360
Speaker 1: morale lower than what it is today. Um. You know,

582
00:33:16,720 --> 00:33:19,600
Speaker 1: we put on the uniform all law enforcement. This goes

583
00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:22,600
Speaker 1: for law enforcement across the nation. I don't care if

584
00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:26,440
Speaker 1: it's a Department of Public Safety, your your local police officers,

585
00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:29,920
Speaker 1: your county sheriffs, every law enforcement officer. They put on

586
00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:33,040
Speaker 1: that uniform because they want to do a job and

587
00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:35,920
Speaker 1: protect the American public. We care about the American public.

588
00:33:36,280 --> 00:33:38,640
Speaker 1: But when you put that uniform on and you know

589
00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:41,040
Speaker 1: that all you have is is people that are trying

590
00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:45,960
Speaker 1: to defund the police, UM, not putting policies in place

591
00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:49,120
Speaker 1: to take care of the smashing grads, UM, not doing

592
00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:52,640
Speaker 1: anything to actually secure the border. You really wonder why

593
00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:55,160
Speaker 1: why is it, Um that I continue to do it?

594
00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:58,120
Speaker 1: And you know, thank goodness, thank goodness to my fellow

595
00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:01,680
Speaker 1: agents for having that dedication, and even in the face

596
00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:04,800
Speaker 1: of what has taken place right now, they still every day,

597
00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:07,520
Speaker 1: put on that uniform, go out do the best that

598
00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:10,239
Speaker 1: they can to protect the American public. That's what drives them.

599

Speaker 1: If you make double laugh, you may find yourself being

641
00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:42,120
Speaker 1: read live on the program. This kind of makes me

642
00:36:42,239 --> 00:36:46,320
Speaker 1: laugh because it's absurdly ridiculous, and unfortunately it is where

643
00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:52,800
Speaker 1: these policies on gender being a choice lead us, particularly

644
00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:56,799
Speaker 1: in the world of sports. There is right now a

645
00:36:57,160 --> 00:36:59,800
Speaker 1: University of Pennsylvania swimmer and I touched on this a

646
00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:03,080
Speaker 1: little bit on Friday, But then this swimmer went and

647
00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:07,200
Speaker 1: performed in a meet over the weekend and set all

648
00:37:07,239 --> 00:37:10,920
Speaker 1: sorts of new crazy records. So at the University of

649
00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:14,120
Speaker 1: Pennsylvania there was a mail swimmer who was on the

650
00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:18,279
Speaker 1: team for three years and was really good buck like

651
00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:24,640
Speaker 1: an All IVY League caliber mail swimmer. Then this swimmer

652
00:37:24,760 --> 00:37:30,160
Speaker 1: decides to identify as a woman, gets estridge and treatments

653
00:37:30,239 --> 00:37:33,960
Speaker 1: or whatever it is to fulfill NCUBA rules for a year,

654
00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:38,720
Speaker 1: and now is competing on the University of Pennsylvania women's team.

655
00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:41,200
Speaker 1: This is not a made up story. This is not

656
00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:47,280
Speaker 1: an Onion headline. This is not some sort of crazy, outlandish,

657
00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:49,920
Speaker 1: this can't be true story. This is really going on

658
00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:53,799
Speaker 1: in the Ivy League. Three years a mail swimmer at

659
00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:56,560
Speaker 1: an elite level for an Ivy League school, the University

660
00:37:56,560 --> 00:38:01,640
Speaker 1: of Pennsylvania, decides to change gender, now swimming as a woman,

661
00:38:02,160 --> 00:38:06,960
Speaker 1: and Buck over the weekend won the sixteen hundred and

662
00:38:07,160 --> 00:38:12,160
Speaker 1: fifty by thirty eight seconds. This man did, who is

663
00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:16,879
Speaker 1: now swimming as a woman, by thirty eight seconds, and

664
00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:21,839
Speaker 1: then also in a five hundred meter race one by

665
00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:28,120
Speaker 1: nearly fifteen seconds, on pace for all time records in

666
00:38:28,320 --> 00:38:32,560
Speaker 1: NC double A races. This UPenn swimmer a man who

667
00:38:32,600 --> 00:38:34,839
Speaker 1: identifies as a woman. Now, this is an interesting part

668
00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:38,719
Speaker 1: of this story. Buck. We have written about this at OutKick,

669
00:38:39,160 --> 00:38:42,400
Speaker 1: the website that I run a voice for sanity in

670
00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:45,759
Speaker 1: the world of sports very often OutKick dot com. You

671
00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:49,720
Speaker 1: can check it out. After we wrote about it at OutKick,

672
00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:52,720
Speaker 1: and after this story was widely shared on the internet

673
00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:56,040
Speaker 1: over the weekend and early part of this week, several

674
00:38:56,160 --> 00:39:01,680
Speaker 1: different swimming coaches and also several different swimmers in the

675
00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:06,759
Speaker 1: world of women's swimming have reached out. They are terrified

676
00:39:07,239 --> 00:39:12,160
Speaker 1: to use their actual names because of being called transphobic.

677
00:39:12,840 --> 00:39:15,080
Speaker 1: But they are saying what I think many of you

678
00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:19,440
Speaker 1: listening right now are saying, this represents the destruction of

679
00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:23,399
Speaker 1: women's sports. You have all of these women, biological women

680
00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:26,160
Speaker 1: who have trained their entire lives to compete at a

681
00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:31,040
Speaker 1: high level, and suddenly a biological man is crushing them

682
00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:34,839
Speaker 1: and they're afraid to speak out your thoughts. Buck Sexton, Well,

683
00:39:34,840 --> 00:39:38,120
Speaker 1: this is this is interesting because you know, I've been

684
00:39:38,800 --> 00:39:42,239
Speaker 1: doing talk radio now Conservaive Talk Radio for ten years,

685
00:39:42,239 --> 00:39:46,719
Speaker 1: and I remember a decade ago talking about how it

686
00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:49,800
Speaker 1: was just a matter of time early on the LGBTQ

687
00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:53,440
Speaker 1: trans movement, right, yes, it was just a matter of

688
00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:58,120
Speaker 1: time before you would have the bathroom policies, the athletes

689
00:39:58,160 --> 00:40:02,919
Speaker 1: competing against you know, the of different genders. I even said,

690
00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:05,480
Speaker 1: what about mixed martial arts fighters? And then there was

691
00:40:05,600 --> 00:40:08,799
Speaker 1: a mixed martial arts fighter who is biologically male, I mean,

692
00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:11,759
Speaker 1: who was just destroying I mean it was horrifying to watch.

693
00:40:11,760 --> 00:40:14,880
Speaker 1: It was not even close when this former male MMA

694
00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:18,040
Speaker 1: fighter is fighting women right in the ring, the things.

695
00:40:18,360 --> 00:40:20,520
Speaker 1: And then it also in prisons. Now increasingly there's a

696
00:40:20,560 --> 00:40:26,280
Speaker 1: movement to take trans trans females who are biological males

697
00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:28,840
Speaker 1: and put them in women's prisons or women hold you know,

698
00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:33,160
Speaker 1: women's jail facilities, and all the things that Clay we

699
00:40:33,239 --> 00:40:36,040
Speaker 1: brought up to say, this is the logical terminus of

700
00:40:36,080 --> 00:40:38,760
Speaker 1: the leftist insanity. This is where it's going. They said,

701
00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:42,120
Speaker 1: you're fear mongering. No one's going to do that, that

702
00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:45,560
Speaker 1: will never happen. But when you understand the nature of

703
00:40:45,560 --> 00:40:47,520
Speaker 1: the left's argument, you know that, of course that's where

704
00:40:47,520 --> 00:40:49,680
Speaker 1: it's going. So this is where we are now. This

705
00:40:49,719 --> 00:40:54,320
Speaker 1: is essentially the eradication of women's achievement in sports before

706
00:40:54,360 --> 00:40:59,040
Speaker 1: our very eyes, people who have spent countless hours, blood, sweat,

707
00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:00,839
Speaker 1: and tears trying to be the best they can at

708
00:41:00,840 --> 00:41:02,920
Speaker 1: their sport. I mean, what's what's even the point? Now?

709
00:41:03,080 --> 00:41:05,560
Speaker 1: You have to wonder how long before all of the

710
00:41:05,880 --> 00:41:08,960
Speaker 1: women's records in different sports at the NC double A

711
00:41:09,080 --> 00:41:11,359
Speaker 1: level and even at the professional level are held by

712
00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:14,160
Speaker 1: biological mails. It's not very long before that's going to

713
00:41:14,239 --> 00:41:17,000
Speaker 1: happen at the current rate. And so that's one big

714
00:41:17,040 --> 00:41:17,960
Speaker 1: part of it. And the other part of it for

715
00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:20,920
Speaker 1: me is I just think it's so interesting that you know,

716
00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:24,040
Speaker 1: there was this moment in time where people would still refuse.

717
00:41:24,560 --> 00:41:27,080
Speaker 1: We are all now using the language of the left

718
00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:30,080
Speaker 1: on this, and I find that I find that very troublesome.

719
00:41:30,640 --> 00:41:33,840
Speaker 1: What I mean is, you know, you turn on you know,

720
00:41:34,040 --> 00:41:39,000
Speaker 1: news channels, and everyone's saying, she, now, I believe you

721
00:41:39,000 --> 00:41:40,880
Speaker 1: know my first name is James. In case then it

722
00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:42,880
Speaker 1: doesn't know. My middle name is Buckman, and I I've

723
00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:45,319
Speaker 1: been called Bucks and some baby. My point being on that,

724
00:41:45,840 --> 00:41:47,480
Speaker 1: you know, your name is whatever you want it to be. Right.

725
00:41:47,520 --> 00:41:49,759
Speaker 1: If somebody wants to be called you know, if they

726
00:41:49,840 --> 00:41:51,560
Speaker 1: change their name to Darth Vader or legally, I'm gonna

727
00:41:51,560 --> 00:41:53,359
Speaker 1: call them Darth Vader. Whatever your name is, I'll call

728
00:41:53,400 --> 00:41:57,920
Speaker 1: you right. Gender is a biological reality, and part of

729
00:41:57,960 --> 00:42:03,080
Speaker 1: the movement of the LGBTQ effort has been and what

730
00:42:03,120 --> 00:42:05,360
Speaker 1: the left has wanted is for people to really be

731
00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:07,000
Speaker 1: a party to a lie here. I mean to the

732
00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:09,400
Speaker 1: point where even the New York Times, which is a

733
00:42:09,480 --> 00:42:12,879
Speaker 1: left wing rag, but the New York Times has had

734
00:42:12,920 --> 00:42:16,759
Speaker 1: to have discussions internally about whether the plural usage they

735
00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:21,040
Speaker 1: for individuals. Even if it seems nice, it's just so

736
00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:25,839
Speaker 1: grammatically problematic because you're not multiple people, So it's confusing

737
00:42:25,880 --> 00:42:29,600
Speaker 1: to the reader. We are now in a point where

738
00:42:29,600 --> 00:42:31,880
Speaker 1: it's gone so far the clay everyone I see in

739
00:42:31,880 --> 00:42:35,080
Speaker 1: the is this is a male. This is a male.

740
00:42:35,280 --> 00:42:37,920
Speaker 1: We can say a transgender female if you want. It

741
00:42:38,040 --> 00:42:40,920
Speaker 1: is not a female. This is a biological male. And

742
00:42:40,960 --> 00:42:44,840
Speaker 1: we're all saying she and she's doing this, and why,

743
00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:47,360
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think that. I don't think that

744
00:42:47,440 --> 00:42:49,800
Speaker 1: pronoun is an issue of preference. I think the pronoun

745
00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:53,600
Speaker 1: is an issue of biological reality, and we're making a concession.

746
00:42:54,040 --> 00:42:55,399
Speaker 1: This is all over the place, by the way. I'm

747
00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:57,719
Speaker 1: sure I've done it too, even unwittingly, the same way

748
00:42:57,719 --> 00:42:59,839
Speaker 1: that occasionally, you know, you'll say, wait, you undocumented. All

749
00:42:59,880 --> 00:43:01,879
Speaker 1: my gosh, I don't want to say undocumented, because it's

750
00:43:01,880 --> 00:43:06,640
Speaker 1: everywhere now. My big thing is just you can't allow

751
00:43:06,680 --> 00:43:09,320
Speaker 1: this to happen. And I've been on this for years

752
00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:15,480
Speaker 1: as well, and it's so clear that men are bigger, stronger,

753
00:43:15,480 --> 00:43:18,240
Speaker 1: and faster than women. This is why we divided men's

754
00:43:18,239 --> 00:43:22,480
Speaker 1: and women's sports hundreds of years ago, because if men

755
00:43:22,520 --> 00:43:27,600
Speaker 1: competed against women and we had a unisex competition, women

756
00:43:27,640 --> 00:43:31,040
Speaker 1: would never win anything. And that's not me trying to

757
00:43:31,160 --> 00:43:36,680
Speaker 1: demean all female athletes. I love athletics period, But if

758
00:43:36,719 --> 00:43:39,960
Speaker 1: we just had basketball, and we didn't have men's and

759
00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:44,120
Speaker 1: women's basketball, no woman would mostly ever even make a

760
00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:48,239
Speaker 1: high school basketball team. The best men's sixteen year old

761
00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:53,560
Speaker 1: soccer team annihilated the women's national Olympic team annihilated them.

762
00:43:53,600 --> 00:43:56,560
Speaker 1: It was a troke. There would be no women's soccer.

763
00:43:57,040 --> 00:43:59,839
Speaker 1: There would be no women's tennis, there would be no

764
00:43:59,840 --> 00:44:03,720
Speaker 1: women's track and field at the Olympics. There would only

765
00:44:03,760 --> 00:44:08,680
Speaker 1: be male medalist. Pretty much. There might be some woman

766
00:44:08,719 --> 00:44:11,480
Speaker 1: who is an ice skating shooter ice skating, you know.

767
00:44:11,800 --> 00:44:14,239
Speaker 1: I think it depends on how you would define ice skating, right,

768
00:44:14,280 --> 00:44:16,880
Speaker 1: because they have women's ice skating. Male ice skaters are

769
00:44:16,920 --> 00:44:20,719
Speaker 1: really good. To my understanding too, Maybe the artist would

770
00:44:20,760 --> 00:44:22,680
Speaker 1: push them over the top, maybe the artistry, but I

771
00:44:22,680 --> 00:44:25,840
Speaker 1: think I mean, my wife was a was a gymnast.

772
00:44:25,880 --> 00:44:29,359
Speaker 1: But men are able to jump bigger, higher, faster in

773
00:44:29,480 --> 00:44:31,879
Speaker 1: terms of doing all of the things that women do

774
00:44:31,960 --> 00:44:36,200
Speaker 1: as well, even in gymnastics. So my point here is,

775
00:44:36,800 --> 00:44:40,680
Speaker 1: if you are going to allow biological men to compete

776
00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:45,640
Speaker 1: against women, then you are destroying the entire fabric of

777
00:44:45,719 --> 00:44:51,520
Speaker 1: women's athletics. Soapuck what I find to be most disappointing

778
00:44:51,560 --> 00:44:55,160
Speaker 1: about this entire process is almost no one is willing

779
00:44:55,200 --> 00:44:58,399
Speaker 1: to have this conversation. And all these female swimmers who

780
00:44:58,400 --> 00:45:02,520
Speaker 1: are getting crushed by this biological man who has decided

781
00:45:02,520 --> 00:45:05,640
Speaker 1: to identify as a woman, almost all of them are

782
00:45:05,800 --> 00:45:08,719
Speaker 1: terrified to even speak out. The coaches are afraid they'll

783
00:45:08,760 --> 00:45:12,640
Speaker 1: lose their jobs. The women who are nineteen twenty twenty

784
00:45:12,640 --> 00:45:14,759
Speaker 1: one years old are afraid that they'll never be able

785
00:45:14,760 --> 00:45:17,480
Speaker 1: to get a job because they'll get branded as transphobic

786
00:45:17,719 --> 00:45:20,759
Speaker 1: if they speak out. Which, now, for folks, I know

787
00:45:20,800 --> 00:45:24,200
Speaker 1: this might sound crazy, but in the more liberal corridors

788
00:45:24,239 --> 00:45:27,759
Speaker 1: of the country, to be transphobic as right alongside being

789
00:45:27,880 --> 00:45:31,920
Speaker 1: racist with you are and untouchable, that's who are someone

790
00:45:31,960 --> 00:45:35,000
Speaker 1: who cannot it is a liability to even have you around,

791
00:45:35,040 --> 00:45:37,799
Speaker 1: certainly as part of a corporation, certainly as part of

792
00:45:38,800 --> 00:45:41,120
Speaker 1: as part of a workforce. So, yeah, if you're an

793
00:45:41,120 --> 00:45:43,160
Speaker 1: Ivy League swimmer and you're looking to get that job

794
00:45:43,160 --> 00:45:45,759
Speaker 1: at you know, Goldman Sacks or some hedge fund or

795
00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:50,160
Speaker 1: some law firm or whatever, transphobic is, that's the end

796
00:45:50,200 --> 00:45:52,760
Speaker 1: a kiss of death, that's the end of it for you. Yeah,

797
00:45:52,800 --> 00:45:55,200
Speaker 1: and so how do you how do you reconcile this.

798
00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:58,680
Speaker 1: I think it's such a big conversation because it's spreading

799
00:45:58,719 --> 00:46:00,719
Speaker 1: down to the high school ranks. Some people say, well,

800
00:46:00,719 --> 00:46:03,440
Speaker 1: this is not a big deal because women also compete

801
00:46:03,440 --> 00:46:07,280
Speaker 1: against men. Yeah, but they never win. Women who decide

802
00:46:07,320 --> 00:46:10,480
Speaker 1: to change and become men and compete against male apples,

803
00:46:10,480 --> 00:46:13,120
Speaker 1: they don't destroy accomplishments that they get annihilated, and then

804
00:46:13,160 --> 00:46:15,120
Speaker 1: they don't want to play the sport anymore against the men.

805
00:46:15,480 --> 00:46:18,000
Speaker 1: This is destroying women's achievement. What's amazing is that the

806
00:46:18,040 --> 00:46:20,120
Speaker 1: feminists are quiet on this because the feminist or action

807
00:46:20,200 --> 00:46:23,319
Speaker 1: just left is trying to under or rather kick at

808
00:46:23,320 --> 00:46:25,560
Speaker 1: the load bearing walls of American civilization. That's a quick

809
00:46:25,560 --> 00:46:27,759
Speaker 1: way of putting it. But Clay, I think this only

810
00:46:27,800 --> 00:46:34,319
Speaker 1: goes away when enough people are so sickened by it

811
00:46:34,400 --> 00:46:36,800
Speaker 1: and just find it to be so detestable that there's

812
00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:38,600
Speaker 1: a public outcry against it. But I think we're a

813
00:46:38,640 --> 00:46:40,520
Speaker 1: long way away. You're gonna have to have a lot

814
00:46:40,560 --> 00:46:43,400
Speaker 1: of women's records destroyed, and they'll have to be a

815
00:46:43,440 --> 00:46:46,200
Speaker 1: movement to say, you know, sorry, we're gonna take the

816
00:46:46,280 --> 00:46:49,200
Speaker 1: names off the trophies for the best women's you know

817
00:46:49,520 --> 00:46:52,759
Speaker 1: five hundred meter eight hundred meters or whatever that are

818
00:46:52,760 --> 00:46:54,799
Speaker 1: actually men. We're gonna we're not going to allow this.

819
00:46:54,840 --> 00:46:57,200
Speaker 1: We're gonna and that's years away, I think, because people

820
00:46:57,239 --> 00:46:59,799
Speaker 1: are so look at what we see all the country,

821
00:46:59,800 --> 00:47:02,359
Speaker 1: there's so much conformity, everyone just carrying around the little

822
00:47:02,400 --> 00:47:05,760
Speaker 1: propaganda machines of their phone in their pocket all the time.

823
00:47:06,200 --> 00:47:08,040
Speaker 1: And they're also scared of their friends and everyone so

824
00:47:08,160 --> 00:47:10,920
Speaker 1: terrified of being told that they're not a part of

825
00:47:10,960 --> 00:47:17,080
Speaker 1: the smart, cool herd. Unfortunately, I think that's true. And man,

826
00:47:17,200 --> 00:47:18,839
Speaker 1: I don't know how it's going to end. I think

827
00:47:18,840 --> 00:47:21,680
Speaker 1: the women's athletics is going to be under a fundamental,

828
00:47:21,920 --> 00:47:25,960
Speaker 1: an existential assault before this comes to a real head.
