00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,320
Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and buck

2
00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:08,639
Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. Welcome in Wednesday edition Clay Travis buck

3
00:00:08,680 --> 00:00:11,920
Speaker 1: Sexton Show. Appreciate all of you hanging out with us

4
00:00:12,039 --> 00:00:17,040
Speaker 1: as we roll into the program. As we are speaking

5
00:00:17,079 --> 00:00:19,720
Speaker 1: to you, unless it has ended in the last few minutes.

6
00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:24,439
Speaker 1: They are finally the FBI is getting around to searching

7
00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:28,000
Speaker 1: Joe Biden's Delaware beach house to see whether or not

8
00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:33,200
Speaker 1: there are any classified documents there. This now is essentially

9
00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:38,720
Speaker 1: three months after the first classified documents were found at

10
00:00:38,720 --> 00:00:42,159
Speaker 1: the Penn Biden Center. We know that the FBI has

11
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:45,320
Speaker 1: searched there. We know that the FBI has searched now

12
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:49,120
Speaker 1: in the Wilmington, Delaware home primary residents of Joe Biden.

13
00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:53,280
Speaker 1: They are now at the Rhoboth Beach House searching. Here

14
00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:58,320
Speaker 1: is a news update on that search, which is, as

15
00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:03,360
Speaker 1: we said, currently going on. This is NBC's Kristen Welker

16
00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:08,640
Speaker 1: discussing the consensual consensual search. We are told, and this

17
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:11,800
Speaker 1: is an important point that there is no search warrant,

18
00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:14,880
Speaker 1: that the White House Counsel's Office is investigating, and that

19
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:18,640
Speaker 1: this was planned. But such an important point, and I

20
00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:21,919
Speaker 1: just want to underscore that. According to a source familiar

21
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:25,320
Speaker 1: with the matter, the White House Counsel's Office is cooperating

22
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:28,960
Speaker 1: fully with this search. There was no search warrant that

23
00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:31,720
Speaker 1: was issued. This was pre plan so this was not

24
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:34,399
Speaker 1: a surprise search. This is something that they've been doing

25
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:41,000
Speaker 1: in coordination with the White House Counsel's Office. It's just

26
00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:44,920
Speaker 1: real quick. Remember remember Frank the tank in old school.

27
00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:47,800
Speaker 1: What he starts swinging the chair on. As we've said,

28
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:51,400
Speaker 1: she's basically screaming at everybody. It's a planned search. You

29
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:55,040
Speaker 1: gotta keep your composure. You gotta keep your composure. I

30
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:57,360
Speaker 1: don't think people are feeling so good the Democrat Party

31
00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:01,640
Speaker 1: right now. Look, we said on this program as soon

32
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:05,040
Speaker 1: as this story broke that there had to be a

33
00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:08,080
Speaker 1: search of Joe Biden's beach house, and there had to

34
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:10,600
Speaker 1: be a search at Joe Biden's primary residence. It took

35
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 1: months for this actually to occur, and I saw a

36
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:18,000
Speaker 1: Miranda Divine, a friend of ours who posted on Twitter.

37
00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:19,919
Speaker 1: But it kind of tied into a lot of what

38
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:23,520
Speaker 1: we have discussed. I will be stunned if they find

39
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:27,320
Speaker 1: any classified documents at Joe Biden's beach house, because they

40
00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:31,080
Speaker 1: have now had three months on top of the screw

41
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:35,760
Speaker 1: up at the Wilmington residence, where they also found classified documents.

42
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:41,359
Speaker 1: Surely they have done away with whatever classified documents might

43
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:44,000
Speaker 1: be in the beach house. Joe Biden has traveled there

44
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 1: multiple times since since the initial discovery of the documents

45
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:52,920
Speaker 1: took place in the Penn Biden Center. I just I

46
00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:57,200
Speaker 1: would be flabbergasted if even if there were classified documents there,

47
00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:00,800
Speaker 1: buck if they're still recoverable. So I think that part

48
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:05,280
Speaker 1: of this is that they're trying to move through the

49
00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:09,480
Speaker 1: Special Council and dibidens as quickly as they can, and

50
00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:11,880
Speaker 1: so that's why they're now they're reporting on how, oh,

51
00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:14,680
Speaker 1: it's a planned search, and you could tell the reporters like, yeah,

52
00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:17,560
Speaker 1: don't everybody freak out. Okay, it's a it's not a

53
00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:20,359
Speaker 1: moral ago rate here, We're not freaking out. It's a

54
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:23,480
Speaker 1: little bit of nervousness. But I think that their plan

55
00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:27,800
Speaker 1: is to get this done before the reelection season really

56
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:29,840
Speaker 1: is underway in a meaningful way, and that and so

57
00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:34,280
Speaker 1: they hope by by talking about how they're planning the

58
00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:37,120
Speaker 1: searches and and they're making sure there's nothing left there

59
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:40,920
Speaker 1: they can essentially put this aside. I increasingly view this

60
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:43,600
Speaker 1: and look, it's really tough to see this, Clay, right,

61
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:45,760
Speaker 1: I mean, it's tough to see this in advance. I

62
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 1: think that there is a lot of the anxiety of

63
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:53,320
Speaker 1: this isn't even so much. Oh my gosh, the sitting

64
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:55,600
Speaker 1: president is a moron, which they knew all along when

65
00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 1: they voted for this guy. That's actually not new, right,

66
00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:01,800
Speaker 1: But it's the recognition that it does have to be Biden,

67
00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:05,640
Speaker 1: and he is making this a lot harder. And he's

68
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:08,080
Speaker 1: not going to be able to run from the basement.

69
00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:10,360
Speaker 1: He's not going to be able to have COVID to

70
00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:12,920
Speaker 1: sort of you know, remember the whole thing about Trumps. Oh,

71
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:16,440
Speaker 1: he mishandled COVID and we're in all people were miserable

72
00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:19,120
Speaker 1: and they voted, some of them and let's not get

73
00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:21,159
Speaker 1: into how many voted. We'll talk about that another day

74
00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:24,320
Speaker 1: for change from the misery. Right, as you've said a

75
00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:26,640
Speaker 1: million times, is Donald Trump? If the elections held in

76
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 1: twenty nineteen, does Donald Trump lose? No, he does not lose.

77
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,440
Speaker 1: Even until were trying to do everything they can to

78
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:35,160
Speaker 1: beat him and rig the game in every way they could,

79
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:37,920
Speaker 1: Trump would have won comfortably in twenty nineteen, and so

80
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:40,840
Speaker 1: I think right now with the document situation, what they

81
00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:44,320
Speaker 1: see playing out is we have no choice but this

82
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:47,080
Speaker 1: guy and this guy. Because remember, originally people thought, oh,

83
00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 1: they're trying to push him aside, he's a bridge. And

84
00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:53,320
Speaker 1: maybe there were a few people involved in this process

85
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:55,920
Speaker 1: who did see that. I'm not saying that that theory

86
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 1: was entirely off for that. I mean, look, I thought

87
00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:00,760
Speaker 1: for a second there maybe it was true. But now

88
00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:03,240
Speaker 1: given the way this process is playing out, that the

89
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:05,479
Speaker 1: fact clay at some level that they have put this

90
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:08,800
Speaker 1: special counsel on and I think means they're trying to

91
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:12,040
Speaker 1: cross the t's dot the eyes and get past this

92
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:15,919
Speaker 1: before the election. And I think they're also having some

93
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:20,160
Speaker 1: Hillary email trauma come up in their minds because they

94
00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 1: thought they were going to be able to put that

95
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:24,600
Speaker 1: one to bed and they weren't. And this one it's

96
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:26,719
Speaker 1: not clear. I mean, it's your point. If they find

97
00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:30,680
Speaker 1: stuff in Rehobeth at this stage, you've got to think

98
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:33,400
Speaker 1: that Joe Biden was papering his walls was classified and

99
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:35,919
Speaker 1: just didn't care. I mean, it was totally reckless. Yeah,

100
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,719
Speaker 1: and remember he's speaking for the State of the Union

101
00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:43,479
Speaker 1: on Tuesday, so six days from now, February seventh, I believe.

102
00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:46,720
Speaker 1: And you think the State of the Union before all

103
00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:50,400
Speaker 1: this classified document scandal blew up, you do the State

104
00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:53,000
Speaker 1: of the Union. Maybe you'll wait a couple of weeks

105
00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:58,640
Speaker 1: and then sometime late February early March, the official rollout

106
00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,559
Speaker 1: of Joe Biden's running for president again in twenty twenty

107
00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:07,800
Speaker 1: four happens. Has the classified document scandal created a challenge

108
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:11,240
Speaker 1: to that schedule in some way? I would say probably yes.

109
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:15,599
Speaker 1: By the way, we should mention, Nicky Hayley is scheduled

110
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:19,480
Speaker 1: to announce, according to multiple reports, on February fifteenth, the

111
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:22,560
Speaker 1: day after Valentine's Day, just a couple of weeks from now,

112
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:26,960
Speaker 1: that she will be officially contending in the twenty twenty

113
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:30,000
Speaker 1: four Republican primary. Joining and I didn't even know he

114
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:33,440
Speaker 1: was in there, John Bolton, who evidently announced at some point,

115
00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:38,640
Speaker 1: and Donald Trump, with the expectation of Pompeo, Pence, maybe

116
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:43,120
Speaker 1: tem Scott. Certainly, I think that Ron DeSantis is going

117
00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:47,360
Speaker 1: to run all of those figures stepping into the fray,

118
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:50,880
Speaker 1: and that ties me into this buck. I saw this

119
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:55,600
Speaker 1: quote come out from Donald Trump, and I'm curious how

120
00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:59,320
Speaker 1: you would analyze this, But Trump on truth Social is

121
00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:02,279
Speaker 1: stepping up his battle with Ron de Santis. We played

122
00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:06,120
Speaker 1: you the audio yesterday where DeSantis, I think, took a

123
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:09,760
Speaker 1: pretty like kind of a little bit under the radar

124
00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:12,800
Speaker 1: shot at Trump by saying, the people render a judgment

125
00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:17,280
Speaker 1: on reelection in my case meaning De Santas saying, in

126
00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:21,040
Speaker 1: my case, I won by nineteen points. Trump obviously did

127
00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:25,080
Speaker 1: not win in twenty twenty. And Trump has just posted

128
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:30,400
Speaker 1: on truth Social the real Ron is a all caps

129
00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:37,120
Speaker 1: rhino globalist who closed quickly down Florida and even its beaches,

130
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:42,080
Speaker 1: loved the vaccines, and wasted big money on testing how

131
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:46,360
Speaker 1: quickly people forget Okay, so this is going to be

132
00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:51,280
Speaker 1: an issue. We We're gonna always look to what we know, right.

133
00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:55,120
Speaker 1: I mean, if Trump says, you know, Ron doesn't have

134
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:58,600
Speaker 1: the persona, the skills, the expertise to run the country,

135
00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:01,880
Speaker 1: people can argue that way or the other. But when

136
00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:06,360
Speaker 1: Trump says that Ron is guilty of shutting down super

137
00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 1: early and not doing a good job on COVID and

138
00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:12,560
Speaker 1: loving the vaccines, he is going directly into the strength

139
00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:16,200
Speaker 1: of Rhonda scientists. I think the strongest single area. I

140
00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:20,120
Speaker 1: was fleeing to Florida in the summer of twenty twenty

141
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:23,760
Speaker 1: personally because of what Rhonda Santists did in the state. Okay,

142
00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:27,360
Speaker 1: so you know, we can't get into this. Who do

143
00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:30,520
Speaker 1: you believe you know me or your lying eyes situation

144
00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:32,480
Speaker 1: with Trump on this stuff, it's not going to go well.

145
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:34,720
Speaker 1: There are other areas where he can make it. You know,

146
00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:37,040
Speaker 1: he can say I'm the Trump saying I'm the only

147
00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:39,240
Speaker 1: one who can win. I'm the only one who can govern.

148
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:41,800
Speaker 1: I'm the only one who can Those are all areas

149
00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:43,360
Speaker 1: where I think, you know, he's got he's got the

150
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:47,960
Speaker 1: upper hand. He does. Yeah, Trump saying Rhonda Santists was

151
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:49,720
Speaker 1: bad on COVID and like the vaccines. So but Trump

152
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:51,760
Speaker 1: said that the vaccine saved one hundred million lives a

153
00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:54,400
Speaker 1: week ago. Yeah, so's he's got to He's got to

154
00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:57,000
Speaker 1: pick his lane here because we are paying attention, we

155
00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:59,480
Speaker 1: are seeing what's going on. I think it's the worst

156
00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:02,520
Speaker 1: scene old avenue of attack Donald Trump could have on

157
00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:05,000
Speaker 1: Rhonda Santis. I mean, this is like saying Glenn Yuncan

158
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:07,960
Speaker 1: is too short. Glen Yunkin is like six nine. Okay,

159
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:10,760
Speaker 1: he's not too short. Say what do you want about it? Yeah?

160
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:15,240
Speaker 1: It is, And to me, what it does is reinforce frankly,

161
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:20,280
Speaker 1: Trump's failures on COVID because you can criticize Rhonda Santis

162
00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:22,719
Speaker 1: for a lot, right, That's what politics is. You get

163
00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:26,080
Speaker 1: criticized on a variety of different fronts. If you told

164
00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:29,360
Speaker 1: the De Santis people, where do you want Trump to

165
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:33,199
Speaker 1: fight the battle of the twenty twenty four presidential nominating

166
00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:39,960
Speaker 1: fight on weather, de Santis treated COVID too seriously and

167
00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:44,000
Speaker 1: locked down too aggressively. That why have almost lane, Why

168
00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:47,080
Speaker 1: have three hundred and fifty thousand people moved to Florida

169
00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:49,800
Speaker 1: in the last two and a half years. We all

170
00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:52,400
Speaker 1: know why, because of what Florida did during COVID. This

171
00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:56,160
Speaker 1: is the the single weakest and and it's you know, dude,

172
00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:59,840
Speaker 1: You and I we we voted for Trump. We like Trumpe.

173
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,680
Speaker 1: I like Donald Trump as a person. You like Donald Trump.

174
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:05,960
Speaker 1: He did a great job in office as president. He's

175
00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:10,000
Speaker 1: got to go after the things that are are are

176
00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:12,360
Speaker 1: gonna make sense, They're gonna resonate. I don't know, I

177
00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:14,760
Speaker 1: don't know who's advising him right now, but whoever's advising

178
00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:17,000
Speaker 1: him in The way he's going after desantist is not

179
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:22,280
Speaker 1: is not serving him well. Honest. DeSantis insisted that every

180
00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:26,120
Speaker 1: single school in Florida be open and that no one

181
00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:30,720
Speaker 1: be required to wear masks in July and August of

182
00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:33,960
Speaker 1: twenty twenty. Buck that isn't I mean, the kids in

183
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:37,960
Speaker 1: Philadelphia and parts of California are still wearing masks to

184
00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:41,200
Speaker 1: this day. This is the single worst avenue we can

185
00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:46,000
Speaker 1: attack him. I also think it elevates de Santis because

186
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:49,960
Speaker 1: right now Trump's in the lead in many states, certainly

187
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:53,080
Speaker 1: in national polling. But I think when Trump is attacking

188
00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:57,160
Speaker 1: a guy who hasn't even announced for the office yet, One,

189
00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:01,520
Speaker 1: it looks like he's afraid of him, in my opinion. Now,

190
00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:03,360
Speaker 1: I don't think Trump's afraid of anybody, but I think

191
00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:06,600
Speaker 1: that's how it comes off. And two, I think he's

192
00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:12,360
Speaker 1: choosing to attack him in the worst possible space. Yeah. Look,

193
00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:14,520
Speaker 1: you and I both know this from just being a

194
00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:19,199
Speaker 1: public person who gets attacked. They're the people who attack you,

195
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:22,240
Speaker 1: even who are public people themselves, and you ignore because

196
00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:25,640
Speaker 1: it's just not you know, when Keith Olberman, uh, you

197
00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:31,000
Speaker 1: know attacks, Yes, he's sad. I feel I feel badly

198
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:34,080
Speaker 1: he's a sad old man. No one cares. You know,

199
00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:36,480
Speaker 1: there's nothing, so it's not worth getting into with him.

200
00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:39,040
Speaker 1: But occasionally somebody will throw it. You know, somebody will

201
00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:40,800
Speaker 1: throw a jab or a right cross at you, and

202
00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:43,600
Speaker 1: you know it's go time. Right. You're kind of saying,

203
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:46,560
Speaker 1: you know, Trump is kind of saying that, you know,

204
00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:48,439
Speaker 1: he thinks that Ron is the guy that he has

205
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:51,760
Speaker 1: to throw shots at first, which is indicative of a

206
00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:55,480
Speaker 1: concern over the dynamic right now in the momentum. And

207
00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:58,960
Speaker 1: I just think that, you know, to attack Ron on

208
00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:04,160
Speaker 1: COVID is very I mean, look, does anyone, I don't know, what,

209
00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:08,280
Speaker 1: does anyone think that that's actually a valid because Trump

210
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:12,840
Speaker 1: was Trump was angry at Georgia for opening too early. Yes,

211
00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:15,400
Speaker 1: I spoke to the President in the Oval in May

212
00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:18,240
Speaker 1: of twenty twenty about COVID and I was begging him, sir,

213
00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:21,920
Speaker 1: you gotta stop with these. He let Fauci take over.

214
00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:24,600
Speaker 1: I hate to say it. Fauci and Burkes were calling

215
00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:27,080
Speaker 1: the shots, and early on you could say that's not

216
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:29,800
Speaker 1: his fault because you know they're the experts, et cetera.

217
00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:32,560
Speaker 1: By May June twenty twenty, it had to be you know,

218
00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:35,600
Speaker 1: he should have ousted them. They should have been sidelined.

219
00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:37,800
Speaker 1: So if we're gonna if this is gonna be a

220
00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:40,480
Speaker 1: fight over who handled COVID better, it's got to be

221
00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:44,240
Speaker 1: a fight over who handled for Trump China, trade, the economy,

222
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:47,760
Speaker 1: the border. Those are areas where Trump can can do

223
00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:51,719
Speaker 1: some victory laps COVID not so much. Eight hundred and

224
00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:53,920
Speaker 1: two A two two eight A two. Maybe some of

225
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:56,960
Speaker 1: you disagree and think that the Santis is vulnerable there,

226
00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:00,480
Speaker 1: buck My general position is it's hard to judge anybody

227
00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:03,080
Speaker 1: on March of twenty twenty because it was such a

228
00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:06,680
Speaker 1: total and complete cluster, you know what. And there was

229
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:09,079
Speaker 1: some time there where De Santists shut down beaches and

230
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:13,200
Speaker 1: that was happening everywhere in the nation. But by April,

231
00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:17,679
Speaker 1: in May, DeSantis was leading one of the free estates

232
00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:21,760
Speaker 1: in the country. And that is just I think the

233
00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:24,720
Speaker 1: single worst area where Trump could be attacking him. There

234
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:29,840
Speaker 1: were people before Trump, before DeSantis's reelection, there were governors

235
00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:33,240
Speaker 1: in far more red states, meaning just you know, they

236
00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:36,840
Speaker 1: totally Republican top to bottom, who refused to protect people

237
00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:39,480
Speaker 1: from vaccine mandates in the private sector. Yeah, Ron De

238
00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:42,240
Speaker 1: Santis said, nah, not in my state. You're not doing that.

239
00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:45,160
Speaker 1: You're not forcing shots people don't need into their arms

240
00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:48,839
Speaker 1: on pain of firing them from their job. They're antidiscrimination laws.

241
00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:50,720
Speaker 1: There are a lot of employment laws in the books.

242
00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:53,040
Speaker 1: Some governors wanted to take big money from big Pharma.

243
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:55,520
Speaker 1: Some governors had other things in mind. Ron was good

244
00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:57,720
Speaker 1: on this one. Yeah, and Buck. I'll just say from

245
00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:00,640
Speaker 1: my personal experience, I moved my whole family to Florida

246
00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:02,720
Speaker 1: in May of twenty twenty and lived down there for

247
00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:05,040
Speaker 1: that month. Kids were out of school. We spend a

248
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:09,200
Speaker 1: lot of time in Florida, and DeSantis was really good.

249
00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:11,719
Speaker 1: In May of twenty twenty, all the restaurants were opening up.

250
00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:15,280
Speaker 1: You know, by May of twenty twenty, Florida was basically

251
00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:18,640
Speaker 1: one hundred percent hotels were open, basically one hundred percent

252
00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:21,000
Speaker 1: back to normal. How many places in America can you

253
00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:23,080
Speaker 1: say that about. I think it's hard to attack him.

254
00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:25,840
Speaker 1: You know, if you're going to criticize Tom Brady, probably

255
00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:28,160
Speaker 1: best not to say he doesn't know how to throw

256
00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:31,520
Speaker 1: a football right, or he didn't win enough Super Bowls.

257
00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:34,400
Speaker 1: He lost three Super Bowls, that's true, he won seven.

258
00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:36,720
Speaker 1: But what Trump's doing is like going after Brady because

259
00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:40,040
Speaker 1: he lost too many Super Bowls eight hundred two eight

260
00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:42,480
Speaker 1: two two eight eight two. If we're missing something, folks

261
00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:43,560
Speaker 1: on this and we always want to hear from me,

262
00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:45,720
Speaker 1: it's gonna be ongoing conversation. I just want to point

263
00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:47,960
Speaker 1: this out to do you know what matters the most?

264
00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:50,400
Speaker 1: We don't have four more years of a Democrat running

265
00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:52,120
Speaker 1: this country. How much more damage do you think Joe

266
00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:55,400
Speaker 1: Biden can do with four more years? I really think

267
00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:57,200
Speaker 1: about that one for a second. We gotta get this

268
00:14:57,240 --> 00:14:59,920
Speaker 1: one right. This next election is critical and you can

269
00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:04,160
Speaker 1: already feel these dynamics and this battle playing out right now.

270
00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:08,000
Speaker 1: If your cell phone services with AT and T, Verizon

271
00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:11,320
Speaker 1: or T Mobile, guess what, you're paying too much? Switch

272
00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:13,680
Speaker 1: to pure Talk that's my cell phone company a choice

273
00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:15,840
Speaker 1: and save more than fifty or sixty bucks a month

274
00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:18,960
Speaker 1: for the same quality of service. That's because pure Talk

275
00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:21,600
Speaker 1: uses the same towers and network as the big companies.

276
00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:24,720
Speaker 1: It's great nationwide five G service at a better price.

277
00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:27,680
Speaker 1: What makes switching your Pure Talk even better is the

278
00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:31,400
Speaker 1: company itself. It's better and owned US based customer service team.

279
00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:33,400
Speaker 1: Just to give you a sense of them, they don't

280
00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:35,560
Speaker 1: put up with anything woke, so you don't see them

281
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:38,640
Speaker 1: advertising on all the fake news networks and doing that nonsense.

282
00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:41,160

289
00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:02,400
Speaker 1: of sanity, an insane world. Second hour of Clay and

290
00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:05,640
Speaker 1: Buck gets going right now. Thanks for being here with us.

291
00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:08,760
Speaker 1: As we said yesterday as we were talking about the

292
00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:13,040
Speaker 1: Tyree Nichols case, we have to look at law enforcement.

293
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:15,400
Speaker 1: We have to look at the narrative around all this

294
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:19,000
Speaker 1: based on the facts and the data. We can't think

295
00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:20,920
Speaker 1: of anybody better to help us do that right now

296
00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:23,480
Speaker 1: than Heather McDonald. She is a senior fellow at the

297
00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:27,840
Speaker 1: Manhattan Institute, contributing editor at City Journal, author of the

298
00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:30,280
Speaker 1: War on Cops, and she just has a piece out

299
00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:35,040
Speaker 1: now at the Spectator. Tyree. This is the title, Tyree

300
00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:40,440
Speaker 1: Nichols and the New Black Cop White Supremacy. Thanks for

301
00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:43,520
Speaker 1: being with us. Heather as always appreciate it. Such a

302
00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:47,360
Speaker 1: pleasure to be with you. Thank you. So tell us, Heather,

303
00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:50,480
Speaker 1: you know this piece. You're getting right into it. We

304
00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:53,360
Speaker 1: discussed this a bit on the show Five Black Cops

305
00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:57,280
Speaker 1: beat a Black men to death. We all condemned it.

306
00:16:57,280 --> 00:16:59,760
Speaker 1: It was excessive use of force. It's quite obvious from

307
00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:02,440
Speaker 1: the ideo, and there were a lot of people claiming

308
00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:05,359
Speaker 1: white supremacy in the media. What is this all about.

309
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:10,280
Speaker 1: It's about the fact that racism is now an unfalsifiable proposition.

310
00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:14,840
Speaker 1: The race industry is not going to ever seed ground.

311
00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:18,200
Speaker 1: They have now got a new rule for racism, which

312
00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:21,760
Speaker 1: is anything bad that happens to a black person is

313
00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:25,120
Speaker 1: a function of racism, regardless of the intentions a race

314
00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:28,679
Speaker 1: of the perpetrator. So they've got it covered, and we

315
00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:32,080
Speaker 1: have the tragedy of the beating now becoming a farce.

316
00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:36,960
Speaker 1: Given the reaction of Benjamin Crump of the New York Times,

317
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:40,960
Speaker 1: of the race activists of Joe Biden, Eager is always

318
00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:44,960
Speaker 1: to slot in his favorite narrative about blacks being right

319
00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:47,800
Speaker 1: to fear for their lives every time they go outside.

320
00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:51,200
Speaker 1: Their daily fear and trauma. None of this is borne

321
00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:55,720
Speaker 1: out by the facts. Here's the facts. The police are

322
00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:59,000
Speaker 1: the saviors in the black community. They are not the oppressors.

323
00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:02,320
Speaker 1: When the police back golf, more black lives are taken.

324
00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:07,240
Speaker 1: Black lives are taken by the dozens. Every single day,

325
00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:10,600
Speaker 1: there are dozens of blacks killed in homicide. That's more

326
00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:15,320
Speaker 1: than all white and Hispanic homicide victims combined. Even though

327
00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:19,560
Speaker 1: blacks are only thirteen percent of the population, and the

328
00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:25,240
Speaker 1: people doing those killings of blacks are overwhelmingly other blacks,

329
00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:29,120
Speaker 1: they are not the police. In twenty twenty two, there

330
00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:35,080
Speaker 1: were seven unarmed, allegedly unarmed blacks killed by police officers

331
00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:38,919
Speaker 1: in fatal shootings. That's out of a homicide population. We

332
00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:41,960
Speaker 1: don't know twenty twenty two numbers yet, but in twenty

333
00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:45,520
Speaker 1: twenty there were ten thousand blacks killed in homicide. There's

334
00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:48,679
Speaker 1: forty four million blacks in the country. Compare that to

335
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:53,680
Speaker 1: seven unarmed, allegedly unarmed blacks killed by the police. That

336
00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:57,000
Speaker 1: is not the problem in the black community. Criminals are

337
00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:00,480
Speaker 1: heather one of the conversations we admit all thanks for

338
00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:02,760
Speaker 1: coming on. You do fantastic work looking at the data

339
00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:05,639
Speaker 1: and analyzing it from a policing perspective. One of the

340
00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:08,160
Speaker 1: conversations Buck and I were having yesterday, and I think

341
00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:10,720
Speaker 1: it's one that certainly the nation needs to have, is

342
00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:15,280
Speaker 1: how difficult it is becoming to recruit police who want

343
00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:19,040
Speaker 1: to be willing to do this job, given the amount

344
00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:22,479
Speaker 1: of peril that they're under, the increasing numbers of police

345
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:24,600
Speaker 1: that have been killed in the past several years, but

346
00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:29,720
Speaker 1: also the just absolute disrespect that they receive in many

347
00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:32,919
Speaker 1: parts of the country. Now, how difficult is it becoming

348
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:35,560
Speaker 1: to recruit police and how is that going to make

349
00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:38,440
Speaker 1: their job that much more difficult, not only in terms

350
00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:40,520
Speaker 1: of the people doing the job, but also in terms

351
00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:44,240
Speaker 1: of the relationships that they have to develop. Well, you're

352
00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:47,080
Speaker 1: absolutely right to take this beyond just the recruitment and

353
00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:50,520
Speaker 1: retention crisis, but let's look at that. It is an

354
00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:54,439
Speaker 1: absolute catastrophe. There is I don't know of a single

355
00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:57,560
Speaker 1: police department that is doing well at this point post

356
00:19:57,600 --> 00:20:02,800
Speaker 1: George Floyd. The narrative that became decibel level high after

357
00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:07,080
Speaker 1: Michael Brown, but phony narrative about hands up, don't shoot,

358
00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:10,320
Speaker 1: and the Ferguson effect of cops de policing and criminals

359
00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:15,320
Speaker 1: getting emboldened after George Floyd, race riots. You had every

360
00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:21,439
Speaker 1: mainstream institution in this country, banks, corporations, universities, press, all

361
00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:26,520
Speaker 1: declaring that the criminal justice system was systemically racist. America

362
00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:28,840
Speaker 1: was systemically racist, of course, but above all it was

363
00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:33,320
Speaker 1: the cops. And this is not an encouraging thing to

364
00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:36,320
Speaker 1: hear if you're thinking about joining a police force. There's

365
00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:39,439
Speaker 1: no other profession. From day one on the job, the

366
00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:42,879
Speaker 1: elite assumption is is that you are a racist. So

367
00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:48,920
Speaker 1: we have attrition at enormously high rates, in impossibility to recruit,

368
00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:53,639
Speaker 1: and as you say, from an officer's perspective, when there

369
00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:56,760
Speaker 1: are not enough job people to help you out, you

370
00:20:56,840 --> 00:21:00,679
Speaker 1: don't have backup. If you're facing an armed, violent and

371
00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:05,720
Speaker 1: resisting suspect, there may be nobody available for the dispatcher

372
00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:08,720
Speaker 1: to call to help you out. That's going to make

373
00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:14,399
Speaker 1: you less likely, quite appropriately understandably, to engage in discretionary

374
00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:18,399
Speaker 1: proactive policing. If you see somebody on a corner at

375
00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:20,560
Speaker 1: two am hitching up his waistband as if he has

376
00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:23,720
Speaker 1: a gun, you don't have to make that stop because

377
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:26,000
Speaker 1: there has not been a crime yet. But if you're

378
00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:29,720
Speaker 1: a good proactive cop trying to protect that community from

379
00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:34,080
Speaker 1: yet another retaliatory gang shooting. You should get out of

380
00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:36,080
Speaker 1: your car and ask a few questions. But if you

381
00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:43,160
Speaker 1: know that your department is way abusing, overtime is stretched,

382
00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:45,639
Speaker 1: that there are no patrol cars available, you're going to

383
00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:47,800
Speaker 1: drive on by because you don't want to get in

384
00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:53,560
Speaker 1: a potentially lethal confrontation with somebody. And the problem as well,

385
00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:58,000
Speaker 1: we now have a perfect storm where we are desperate

386
00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:01,400
Speaker 1: to recruit at the same time that the pressure has

387
00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:05,920
Speaker 1: been on for years to recruit on the basis of race,

388
00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:11,720
Speaker 1: to have race trump merit. And what happens when that

389
00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:17,439
Speaker 1: is the case and departments lower educational and cognitive standards

390
00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:21,560
Speaker 1: and they lower the requirements of a clean criminal background

391
00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:27,440
Speaker 1: check in order to broaden the pool of potentially qualifiable recruits,

392
00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:31,240
Speaker 1: you get corruption scandals, and you get more excessive force.

393
00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:34,560
Speaker 1: But that will probably continue. You know now that we

394
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:39,440
Speaker 1: have the theme that, well, blacks are white supremacists, but

395
00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:43,520
Speaker 1: the issue is black victims, black victims, five victims, even

396
00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:47,520
Speaker 1: though we've now decided that black cops are racist too.

397
00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:51,359
Speaker 1: I can guarantee you that the response to this terrible,

398
00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:56,480
Speaker 1: terrible beating will be both de policing and an increased

399
00:22:56,520 --> 00:23:00,440
Speaker 1: push for diversity hiring. We speaking ahead of McDonald. She's

400
00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:03,280
Speaker 1: got a piece that we've linked up at klanbuck dot com,

401
00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:07,840
Speaker 1: Tyree Nichols and the New Black Cop White Supremacy. She

402
00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:10,720
Speaker 1: also has a book coming out, When Race Trump's Merit,

403
00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:14,040
Speaker 1: How the pursuit of equity sacrifices excellence, destroys beauty and

404
00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:19,320
Speaker 1: threatens lives Heather, are we seeing based on the response

405
00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:22,480
Speaker 1: that is occurring in cities now, not at all, but

406
00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:25,840
Speaker 1: in some our Democrats at the point, because let's be honest,

407
00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:27,919
Speaker 1: it's Democrats who a run these cities, whether it's Memphis

408
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:30,359
Speaker 1: or LA or New York. Are they at the point

409
00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:32,920
Speaker 1: where they're starting to have to bow to the reality

410
00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:35,840
Speaker 1: of facts when it comes to policing and move more

411
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,520
Speaker 1: toward a rational approach or have you have you just

412
00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:41,760
Speaker 1: seen the activists continue to get their way? I mean,

413
00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:46,359
Speaker 1: where's the momentum. Well, after this beating, I hear in

414
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:51,320
Speaker 1: renewed calls for abolition. But you know, I think the

415
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:55,760
Speaker 1: conservatives were wrong strategically. They put too much emphasis initially

416
00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:59,600
Speaker 1: on defunding and the actual word itself there. They're in fact,

417
00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:04,080
Speaker 1: we're very few democratic politicians who are actually calling for

418
00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:10,680
Speaker 1: defunding or dismantling police departments, and Biden could rightly say, oh, well,

419
00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:14,320
Speaker 1: look at I've put funding in my you know, George Floyd,

420
00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:16,840
Speaker 1: Bill or whatever from more cop hiring, at the same

421
00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:20,960
Speaker 1: time that his rhetoric makes it virtually impossible that that

422
00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:23,720
Speaker 1: funding will be taken up for cop hiring, because nobody

423
00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:26,600
Speaker 1: wants to join a profession where the president tells you

424
00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:30,800
Speaker 1: that you're praying on black children every single day. So

425
00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:34,879
Speaker 1: I don't know, I'm there's a lot of division, I

426
00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:39,919
Speaker 1: know in conservative ranks about how to read the midterm elections. I,

427
00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:43,520
Speaker 1: as a pessimist by nature, do not think that the

428
00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:47,280
Speaker 1: midterm elections showed that the country is ready to say,

429
00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:50,159
Speaker 1: you know what, the police are the solution, They're not

430
00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:53,199
Speaker 1: the problem. So we haven't suffered enough, basically, Heather, we

431
00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:56,960
Speaker 1: haven't suffered enough. That's where we are. Not enough, Heather.

432
00:24:57,440 --> 00:24:59,640
Speaker 1: I think this is not getting enough attention. And I'm

433
00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:03,080
Speaker 1: sure that you know the latest numbers and the trend

434
00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:08,359
Speaker 1: lines police are being murdered killed on the job in

435
00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:14,080
Speaker 1: massively increasing numbers over the last three or four years.

436
00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:18,160
Speaker 1: How prevalent is that becoming and what does the statistical

437
00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:21,960
Speaker 1: data reflect that not only are cops being disrespected more

438
00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:27,160
Speaker 1: by citizens, that's leading directly to more cops dying on

439
00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:31,600
Speaker 1: the job. Oh, it certainly is. I mean, in last

440
00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:34,480
Speaker 1: year there were seventy three cops that were murdered. That

441
00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:37,919
Speaker 1: was a massive jump. And when you do it on

442
00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:42,320
Speaker 1: a per capita basis, looking at those seventy three murdered

443
00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:46,280
Speaker 1: cops compared to a police force nationally of about under

444
00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:49,679
Speaker 1: seven hundred thousand officers, and you compare that to the

445
00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:54,560
Speaker 1: number of unarmed blacks who were killed by cops, And traditionally,

446
00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:57,320
Speaker 1: blackmails have made up forty two percent of all cop

447
00:25:57,359 --> 00:26:01,000
Speaker 1: killers nationwide, even though there's six percent of the population.

448
00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:05,439
Speaker 1: A police officer is four hundred times as likely to

449
00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:07,920
Speaker 1: be killed by a black mail as an unarmed black

450
00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:10,520
Speaker 1: is to be killed by a police officer. People are

451
00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:14,439
Speaker 1: resisting arrest, and of course, every time you demonize the cops,

452
00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:17,919
Speaker 1: as we're doing now, you're going to increase hatred, resentment,

453
00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:22,760
Speaker 1: tensions in the community and resisting arrest, and that puts

454
00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:27,080
Speaker 1: officers lives at danger in danger. And when you delegitimate

455
00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:30,720
Speaker 1: the policing profession and the criminal justice system more generally,

456
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:33,920
Speaker 1: as Biden did, both before and after the release of

457
00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:38,480
Speaker 1: the Tyree Nichols video, saying, well, you know, we still don't.

458
00:26:38,560 --> 00:26:41,520
Speaker 1: We have a criminal justice system that refuses to meet

459
00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:47,679
Speaker 1: out fair treatment, that those words have very very serious consequences.

460
00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:54,760
Speaker 1: People approach interactions with hostility, they are less inclined to

461
00:26:54,800 --> 00:27:00,560
Speaker 1: obey lawful orders. We could end virtually all cop killings tomorrow,

462
00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:04,480
Speaker 1: that is, officer involved killings when the officers shoots a

463
00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:10,160
Speaker 1: civilian if people complied with commands and did not resist arrest. Now,

464
00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:13,600
Speaker 1: I'm sympathetic to Tyree Nichols taking off at this point,

465
00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:16,400
Speaker 1: although we do not have the full tapes. Perhaps he

466
00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:20,120
Speaker 1: was violently resisting arrest before trying to grab a gun.

467
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:22,560
Speaker 1: This well may be true because there are parts of

468
00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:26,000
Speaker 1: the videos we have not seen, but from what we see,

469
00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:29,320
Speaker 1: I actually feel sorry for the guy, and I understand

470
00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:31,679
Speaker 1: him taking off and running. But as a general matter,

471
00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:35,280
Speaker 1: if the cop tells you to do something, you follow

472
00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:40,800
Speaker 1: commands and you will not be shot or roughed up. Period.

473
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:43,800
Speaker 1: I'm glad you're bringing that up head here, because that

474
00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:46,000
Speaker 1: is what I tell my kids, and that's what I

475
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:49,000
Speaker 1: would encourage everybody out there listening who has kids and

476
00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:52,959
Speaker 1: grandkids Look, if you believe your constitutional rights are being

477
00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:55,680
Speaker 1: violated by a police officer, you have time to challenge

478
00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:59,280
Speaker 1: that in the court. Comply with their initial demands as

479
00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:06,000
Speaker 1: best you can do, not accelerate the intensity of that

480
00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:10,760
Speaker 1: of that violence by not complying. I wish everyone in

481
00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:14,200
Speaker 1: America would share that message with their kids and their grandkids.

482
00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:17,200
Speaker 1: And I say kids and grandkids because by and large,

483
00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:20,679
Speaker 1: young men are the ones that are getting in trouble

484
00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:24,760
Speaker 1: for violent acts and are creating and acting violently either.

485
00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:27,560
Speaker 1: So I'm glad that you're pointing that out. Didn't you

486
00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:30,200
Speaker 1: think that, based on what we've seen so far of

487
00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:33,600
Speaker 1: the Tyree Nichols video that it was actually far worse

488
00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:38,480
Speaker 1: than the George Floyd video. Oh? Absolutely, I mean this

489
00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:44,760
Speaker 1: was deliberate aggression and it was also I mean, the

490
00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:49,000
Speaker 1: tactics are just abysmal these guys. It makes the Keystone

491
00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:52,040
Speaker 1: cops look like they're a you know, finally tuned cored

492
00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:55,720
Speaker 1: to ballet with balishnikov or something. It is just a trumpsas.

493
00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:58,520
Speaker 1: I don't know if these cops were from the start

494
00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:04,320
Speaker 1: incapable of absorbed training, or if they simply don't have

495
00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:08,600
Speaker 1: decent training in Memphis, they clearly need training and controlling stress.

496
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:12,240
Speaker 1: But yes they are. They are what appears to be

497
00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:15,440
Speaker 1: and again we do not know the context. We do

498
00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:18,000
Speaker 1: not know whether he was high on drugs. We don't

499
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:21,600
Speaker 1: even have a proper autopsy. But it appears to be

500
00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:29,000
Speaker 1: gratuitous use of force, and Chauvin was stolid and impassive.

501
00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:33,880
Speaker 1: There's many police officers who will tell you that the

502
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:39,080
Speaker 1: hold he was using was in fact legitimate under Minneapolis rules,

503
00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:43,720
Speaker 1: but this was something far beyond that. And I've also

504
00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:46,880
Speaker 1: had officers tell me that it looks like they are

505
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:51,400
Speaker 1: all reluctant to get down on the ground with him

506
00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:54,760
Speaker 1: and use say their need to restrain him as we

507
00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:58,400
Speaker 1: saw with Chauvin, and are standing over him and administering

508
00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:03,040
Speaker 1: these completely feckless blows. Somebody has suggested that that may

509
00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:07,000
Speaker 1: also be one of the usual unintended consequences of our

510
00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:16,240
Speaker 1: overreaction to the Chauvin killing. And now maybe people are

511
00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:20,640
Speaker 1: not willing to get down and use legitimate tactics and

512
00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:24,440
Speaker 1: our stead resorting to the blows and the batons and

513
00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:28,680
Speaker 1: the kicks. Heather McDonald, keep up the fantastic work. We

514
00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:31,720
Speaker 1: appreciate you given the time to us today encourage everybody

515
00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:33,600
Speaker 1: to check out her work. You can find more about

516
00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:36,640
Speaker 1: Heather on Clay and Buck dot com. Heather, thank you

517
00:30:36,680 --> 00:30:40,040
Speaker 1: so much. Such an honor claim. Buck, thank you so much.

518
00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:44,440
Speaker 1: Thank you. Look, winter storms causing a lot of disruptions

519
00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:47,200
Speaker 1: all over the country right now. Certainly many of you

520
00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:49,880
Speaker 1: out there listening, especially if you're in Texas or in

521
00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:52,880
Speaker 1: the South where winter storms are not that common, know

522
00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:55,000
Speaker 1: exactly what I'm talking about. My kids are out of

523
00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:57,840
Speaker 1: school right now. Hopefully that's not going to create any

524
00:30:57,880 --> 00:31:01,160
Speaker 1: massive disruptions in the flow of goods. But given the

525
00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:05,120
Speaker 1: transportation crisis that we've seen under the Biden administration, given

526
00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:10,440
Speaker 1: the population shortages for so many different products out there

527
00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:13,400
Speaker 1: on the shelves. Do you have food security? Do you

528
00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:16,680
Speaker 1: have food insurance? We do in the Travis household. Each

529
00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:20,320
Speaker 1: member of my house has three months of food that

530
00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:25,000
Speaker 1: will last up to twenty five years in our house breakfast, lunch, dinner,

531
00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:27,920
Speaker 1: two thousand calories a day thanks to my patriots supply.

532
00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:31,520
Speaker 1: Wife was really excited when this arrived on the front doors.

00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:35,320
Speaker 1: And I have taken care of my family's emergency food

534
00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:37,960
Speaker 1: needs four years and years into the future. Have you

535
00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:41,440
Speaker 1: probably got home insurance, car insurance, life insurance. So many

536
00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:44,160
Speaker 1: different forms of insurance out there. Food insurance can make

548
00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:26,120
Speaker 1: that say I live in a sanctuary city. I think

549
00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:28,640
Speaker 1: that we should live up to that promise. You know

550
00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:32,000
Speaker 1: the town of Ellis Island, as Eric Adam's reference there,

551
00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:35,400
Speaker 1: no one had got off that boat said inside is

552
00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:39,360
Speaker 1: worse than outside, right, or food is worse than no food.

553
00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:43,680
Speaker 1: Those are your options. You legally do not belong here,

554
00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:45,280
Speaker 1: at least at this point. I hope you will get

555
00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:47,440
Speaker 1: a pathway to citizenship I hope that you will be

556
00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:50,360
Speaker 1: a great contributor to the New York economy and then

557
00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:54,280
Speaker 1: to the greater United States economy. But at this particular moment,

558
00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:58,040
Speaker 1: you're here by the grace of our generosity, and to

559
00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:01,840
Speaker 1: act like that is terrible. So that's Jessica Tarlov on Fox.

560
00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:07,080
Speaker 1: She's a Democrat and she recognizes, because I think everybody

561
00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:11,840
Speaker 1: who's being honest recognizes this migrant situation in New York

562
00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:17,360
Speaker 1: City is a disaster for the open borders advocates and

563
00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:22,680
Speaker 1: the pro illegal immigration nonprofit groups out there, the hard

564
00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:26,440
Speaker 1: left of the Democrat Party. Let me just update everybody

565
00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:30,200
Speaker 1: to where we are. We mentioned this story yesterday that,

566
00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:33,440
Speaker 1: by the way, the reports are that the hotel that

567
00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:36,120
Speaker 1: they were in Clay is actually a four hundred and

568
00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:39,400
Speaker 1: fifty dollars a night hotel. So ify just cut you

569
00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:42,680
Speaker 1: off there for a second. How many people are listening

570
00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:45,760
Speaker 1: to us right now have ever stayed in a four

571
00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:49,600
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty dollars or night hotel room in their lives?

572
00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:53,240
Speaker 1: I bet it's like ten percent. I want to point

573
00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:58,360
Speaker 1: out that the activists and protesters, left wing activists, and

574
00:33:58,440 --> 00:34:01,960
Speaker 1: these illegal immigrant okay, they do not have a right

575
00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:03,760
Speaker 1: to be in this country. They entered they all entered

576
00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:07,760
Speaker 1: the country illegally, and now they're trying to play games

577
00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:09,719
Speaker 1: with And I'll get into this in a second, because

578
00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:12,399
Speaker 1: it goes to the very heart of this issue, trying

579
00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:15,120
Speaker 1: to play games with our system and with our generosity,

580
00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:17,640
Speaker 1: and it's it's gross, it's wrong what's going on here,

581
00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:19,600
Speaker 1: and people are really seeing this. First of all, these

582
00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:22,680
Speaker 1: are you have all these video these able bodied males,

583
00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:26,200
Speaker 1: you know, guys in their twenties and thirties, who are

584
00:34:26,239 --> 00:34:30,120
Speaker 1: who are saying we need this free not just free housing,

585
00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:33,319
Speaker 1: free luxury hotel in the middle of New York City.

586
00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:36,560
Speaker 1: Play now they're demanding for this is you can't make

587
00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:39,800
Speaker 1: this stuff up. They're saying the facility they're supposed to

588
00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:42,640
Speaker 1: be moved to, which is a government facility in Brooklyn

589
00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:45,480
Speaker 1: full of Brooklyn's like the most lib place you'll ever

590
00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:48,680
Speaker 1: find in the country, by the way, and they're trying

591
00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:52,000
Speaker 1: to move them to Brooklyn, and they're saying the beds

592
00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:55,839
Speaker 1: are uncomfortable there, and they think it's they think it's

593
00:34:55,880 --> 00:34:59,000
Speaker 1: a little too cold in the facility, so the beds

594
00:34:59,080 --> 00:35:02,239
Speaker 1: are too hard for them, and the facility isn't as

595
00:35:02,320 --> 00:35:05,719
Speaker 1: inviting as the five hundred dollars a night hotel that

596
00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:08,960
Speaker 1: they've been staying in Midtown. You know, no crap, right, Like,

597
00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:11,520
Speaker 1: we all can figure this one out, and I think

598
00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:14,799
Speaker 1: some of them are starting to process this. Oh, this

599
00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:18,280
Speaker 1: isn't just making us look deeply ungrateful to the American people,

600
00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:24,040
Speaker 1: which they are. It also raises an enormous issue here.

601
00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:27,960
Speaker 1: I hold on a second clay. These are asylum seekers.

602
00:35:28,719 --> 00:35:33,920
Speaker 1: Asylum is supposed to be. You know, I fled this

603
00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:37,440
Speaker 1: country and I'm here to America. If you send me back,

604
00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:40,799
Speaker 1: I will be tortured and murdered. That is what asylum

605
00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:43,600
Speaker 1: is for. Okay, Asylum is not. Yeah, I like your

606
00:35:43,640 --> 00:35:46,879
Speaker 1: welfare state and your jobs Market's pretty cool. That's immigration.

607
00:35:47,200 --> 00:35:49,040
Speaker 1: We have a line for that. We have a process

608
00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:52,919
Speaker 1: for that. They're claiming to be asylum seekers who are

609
00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:56,719
Speaker 1: fleeing violence, their very lives are at risk, and the

610
00:35:56,800 --> 00:36:00,120
Speaker 1: moment they're actually shown what's going on in Manhattan, then

611
00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:03,839
Speaker 1: the taxpayers large s. It turns around to no, you

612
00:36:03,920 --> 00:36:06,800
Speaker 1: have to give us vouchers. You have to move money

613
00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:09,440
Speaker 1: from the police budget, which is the demand to give

614
00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:14,719
Speaker 1: us vouchers for permanent housing, pay for our fancy homes.

615
00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:17,960
Speaker 1: I don't think they were fleeing violence, Clay. The American

616
00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:24,000
Speaker 1: people have been had. It's unacceptable. And just put this

617
00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:29,960
Speaker 1: into perspective of your own life. Imagine if you went

618
00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:34,120
Speaker 1: to a different country today. Imagine if you went into

619
00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:40,600
Speaker 1: Mexico penniless and poor and they put you in one

620
00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:46,080
Speaker 1: of the fanciest hotels in one of the best cities

621
00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:50,400
Speaker 1: in that entire country, and then you complain because they

622
00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:52,520
Speaker 1: moved you to a new hotel because the bed wasn't

623
00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:57,440
Speaker 1: comfortable enough for you. Is this is crazy? And again

624
00:36:57,960 --> 00:37:01,600
Speaker 1: it goes to what we were talking about yesterday day. Incentives,

625
00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:08,160
Speaker 1: incentives govern individual decisions, and the incentives in the United

626
00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:13,960
Speaker 1: States immigration are all aligned with people who are non natives.

627
00:37:14,440 --> 00:37:17,720
Speaker 1: So if you come to this country, you get taken

628
00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:21,439
Speaker 1: care of way better by and large than you can

629
00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:25,040
Speaker 1: just live in other countries. So it's not a surprise

630
00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:29,000
Speaker 1: that people come here. And then it's amazing how quickly

631
00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:34,960
Speaker 1: these people become entitled that they're feeling comfortable complaining about

632
00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:37,839
Speaker 1: the quality of the beds and the temperature in the

633
00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:40,560
Speaker 1: place where they are staying, when they are getting to

634
00:37:40,600 --> 00:37:44,840
Speaker 1: stay there for free. On your and minds taxpayer dollars.

635
00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:48,759
Speaker 1: It's one thing to be frustrated about the social security

636
00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:53,320
Speaker 1: apparatus right the welfare state. When we are supporting people

637
00:37:53,360 --> 00:37:56,600
Speaker 1: who are American citizens, that can be frustrating. I think

638
00:37:56,600 --> 00:37:59,839
Speaker 1: the tax code is way too generous to people who

639
00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:05,279
Speaker 1: don't want to work. My personal opinion, it's infuriating on

640
00:38:05,320 --> 00:38:10,399
Speaker 1: a different level when our tax system is far too

641
00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:13,520
Speaker 1: generous to people who aren't even citizens of the United States. Buck.

642
00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:18,680
Speaker 1: So even Democrats, I think, look at this, and there's

643
00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:21,120
Speaker 1: a bunch of Democrats I bet listening to us right

644
00:38:21,120 --> 00:38:25,200
Speaker 1: now who have come over to this show because they

645
00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:28,240
Speaker 1: are frustrated with the policy. In fact, when you look

646
00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:33,720
Speaker 1: at every single administrative action of the Biden administration, Buck

647
00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:38,560
Speaker 1: overwhelmingly the area that Biden and He's touched a lot

648
00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:41,000
Speaker 1: of things and made it worse. The area that he

649
00:38:41,080 --> 00:38:45,640
Speaker 1: pulls the worst on immigration and our border. It's an

650
00:38:45,680 --> 00:38:49,400
Speaker 1: abject failure no matter what your political leanings are, and

651
00:38:49,680 --> 00:38:54,160
Speaker 1: every single thing we do provides incentives to make it worse. Remember,

652
00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:58,200
Speaker 1: the mayor of New York City has been saying these

653
00:38:58,280 --> 00:39:03,719
Speaker 1: illegal migrants are costing the city too much money. They've

654
00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:06,799
Speaker 1: also got the problem a lot of high income, high

655
00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:10,319
Speaker 1: earning New Yorkers have left and become other They've become

656
00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:14,200
Speaker 1: Tennesseeans and Texans and Floridians and mostly those, but a

657
00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:17,000
Speaker 1: few other, a few other states. No state income tax.

658
00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:18,719
Speaker 1: There By the way, if you're out there listening to

659
00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:21,319
Speaker 1: us right now and you are frustrated with your taxes, buck,

660
00:39:21,400 --> 00:39:23,720
Speaker 1: it makes a big difference to have no state income tax.

661
00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:27,400
Speaker 1: You know, I gotta say, I love South Carolina and

662
00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:30,600
Speaker 1: Georgia as places to visit. They gotta get to zero

663
00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:34,240
Speaker 1: state income tax. It's crazy. I think it's five points

664
00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:36,560
Speaker 1: something percent in South Carolina. I don't know what it

665
00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:38,880
Speaker 1: is in Georgia. It might be about the same that

666
00:39:39,080 --> 00:39:42,759
Speaker 1: they're missing out. There's a gold rush of happy taxpayers

667
00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:47,080
Speaker 1: right now who have moved to those states we just mentioned,

668
00:39:47,320 --> 00:39:49,520
Speaker 1: and you know, Georgia and South Carolina should be getting

669
00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:51,080
Speaker 1: a lot. They're getting some of that flow, to be fair,

670
00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:53,480
Speaker 1: because it's still lower cost of living and lower tax

671
00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:55,320
Speaker 1: than New York and California. To be sure, it's a

672
00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:58,879
Speaker 1: fifty percent discount, but you know, you gotta get it down.

673
00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:01,200
Speaker 1: And it's also just in a show. You know, you

674
00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:04,520
Speaker 1: can't just why do these states like New York have

675
00:40:04,680 --> 00:40:09,520
Speaker 1: such massive budgets. It is all medicaid and the bureaucracy,

676
00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:14,960
Speaker 1: so welfare and bureaucrats. That's why. And by the way,

677
00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:19,440
Speaker 1: it's mostly paying for retired bureaucrats. It's mostly the pensions,

678
00:40:19,760 --> 00:40:21,920
Speaker 1: the servicing of the pensions for people who worked for

679
00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:24,360
Speaker 1: the city ten years ago, twenty years ago, whatever it

680
00:40:24,440 --> 00:40:28,080
Speaker 1: may be. And that's just an unsustainable model when there

681
00:40:28,120 --> 00:40:31,719
Speaker 1: are other states that present better opportunities and people will

682
00:40:31,760 --> 00:40:34,480
Speaker 1: go to. And so just to close the loop here

683
00:40:34,520 --> 00:40:37,080
Speaker 1: on this situation in New York City, you know, the

684
00:40:37,680 --> 00:40:40,200
Speaker 1: fact that that the City of New York is paying

685
00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:44,960
Speaker 1: for migrants who are illegals to be in a hotel

686
00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:49,319
Speaker 1: in the first place, Like this is crazy. I mean,

687
00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:52,480
Speaker 1: it's madness. If you're a homeless New Yorker and you

688
00:40:52,719 --> 00:40:54,520
Speaker 1: and you go, you show up to homeless services in

689
00:40:54,520 --> 00:40:56,440
Speaker 1: New York City, which they're spending a couple of billion

690
00:40:56,440 --> 00:40:59,799
Speaker 1: dollars a year by the way on that, uh, you know,

691
00:40:59,840 --> 00:41:02,680
Speaker 1: you wouldn't be told, hey, here's your voucher to go

692
00:41:02,760 --> 00:41:04,719
Speaker 1: stay in a five hundred dollars a night hotel. Although

693
00:41:04,719 --> 00:41:06,759
Speaker 1: I think during COVID they did start to change some

694
00:41:06,840 --> 00:41:09,319
Speaker 1: of this where you know, hotels because there was no

695
00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:13,040
Speaker 1: tourism started to take this money to become effectively taxpayer

696
00:41:13,040 --> 00:41:17,440
Speaker 1: funded homeless shelters. That was going on. But this is crazy.

697
00:41:17,840 --> 00:41:20,080
Speaker 1: There's no way to defend it, and I don't even

698
00:41:20,080 --> 00:41:22,680
Speaker 1: think anybody in the Biden administration could defend it. And

699
00:41:22,760 --> 00:41:26,600
Speaker 1: I would love to hear how this is in any

700
00:41:26,600 --> 00:41:30,879
Speaker 1: way making the situation better. Because every single person, while

701
00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:33,480
Speaker 1: they may complain about the beds and the temperature not

702
00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:39,799
Speaker 1: being to their full desire, think about if you get

703
00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:42,719
Speaker 1: to stay in a four star hotel. When you go

704
00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:45,960
Speaker 1: into that hotel, if you are an American citizen, regardless

705
00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:49,160
Speaker 1: of where you listening to us right now, sleep it's

706
00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:53,360
Speaker 1: a nice environment, but you're already an American. Imagine you

707
00:41:53,440 --> 00:41:57,279
Speaker 1: lived in a third world country, came to America, got

708
00:41:57,320 --> 00:41:59,920
Speaker 1: put in a four star hotel in the middle of Manhattan.

709
00:42:00,320 --> 00:42:04,040
Speaker 1: You're telling every single person back in your country how

710
00:42:04,160 --> 00:42:06,560
Speaker 1: rich America is that you get to come here and

711
00:42:06,560 --> 00:42:08,560
Speaker 1: stay in a fancy hotel. You know what, That leads

712
00:42:08,560 --> 00:42:12,319
Speaker 1: to millions of more people coming to the border. So

713
00:42:12,680 --> 00:42:16,240
Speaker 1: it's not just that it's indefensible to make this decision,

714
00:42:16,600 --> 00:42:20,800
Speaker 1: it's that bucket actually seeds the ground, providing the centive

715
00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:23,600
Speaker 1: structure for things to get infinitely worse. And I want

716
00:42:23,600 --> 00:42:26,319
Speaker 1: to remind everyone that the activist left in New York

717
00:42:26,960 --> 00:42:31,080
Speaker 1: people speaking on behalf of these migrants are demanding at

718
00:42:31,080 --> 00:42:34,160
Speaker 1: a time of New York City still way above the

719
00:42:34,200 --> 00:42:37,280
Speaker 1: crime rates of three years ago and in serious decay.

720
00:42:37,400 --> 00:42:39,160
Speaker 1: And I know New York City like the back of

721
00:42:39,239 --> 00:42:41,000
Speaker 1: my hand. It is not what it used to be.

722
00:42:41,080 --> 00:42:43,759
Speaker 1: It has been going downhill. And I love New York,

723
00:42:43,760 --> 00:42:47,120
Speaker 1: but it is in rough shape. Clay. They're demanding people move,

724
00:42:47,200 --> 00:42:52,759
Speaker 1: that the city move funds from the NYPD to permanent

725
00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:57,560
Speaker 1: housing vouchers for these migrants to pay their rent. How

726
00:42:57,560 --> 00:42:59,480
Speaker 1: many people listening to this who live in the New

727
00:42:59,520 --> 00:43:02,200
Speaker 1: York area be like, yeah, hey, my rent two while

728
00:43:02,200 --> 00:43:07,719
Speaker 1: you're at it. Now. It's indefensible and it should be

729
00:43:07,760 --> 00:43:10,680
Speaker 1: something that gets attacked soundly by all parts of the

730
00:43:10,680 --> 00:43:14,000
Speaker 1: political spectrum. Look. On Monday, we told you about a

731
00:43:14,080 --> 00:43:18,239
Speaker 1: huge cell phone service provider breach at T Mobile. Do

732
00:43:18,239 --> 00:43:23,040
Speaker 1: you know thirty seven million customers had their personal information compromised?

733
00:43:23,560 --> 00:43:26,160
Speaker 1: And that's not uncommon. Every single week there's a new

734
00:43:26,200 --> 00:43:29,759
Speaker 1: company announcing that it's personal data has been breached and

735
00:43:29,920 --> 00:43:32,680
Speaker 1: your information may be out there circulating on the internet.

736
00:43:33,400 --> 00:43:35,640
Speaker 1: That means there's enough in photo set up accounts in

737
00:43:35,680 --> 00:43:38,720
Speaker 1: your name. And what's the easiest way for a cyber

738
00:43:38,760 --> 00:43:42,320
Speaker 1: thief to pretend to be you online well by using

739
00:43:42,440 --> 00:43:45,240
Speaker 1: all of your different information. That's why you need online

00:44:43,480 --> 00:44:46,279
Speaker 1: I have to I have to point something out here.

759
00:44:47,320 --> 00:44:48,840
Speaker 1: You know, I'm getting married in a few days, and

760
00:44:48,840 --> 00:44:51,160
Speaker 1: so I'm running short on time. And I have a

761
00:44:51,200 --> 00:44:54,759
Speaker 1: bone to pick with you because you had told me

762
00:44:55,280 --> 00:44:57,040
Speaker 1: that Yellowstone was a very good show. I was a

763
00:44:57,040 --> 00:45:00,160
Speaker 1: little skeptical, and now not only am I am. I

764
00:45:00,239 --> 00:45:03,280
Speaker 1: caught up to season five of Yellowstone. Recently, I've started

765
00:45:03,320 --> 00:45:06,120
Speaker 1: to kind of just rip through it. I'm also watching

766
00:45:06,920 --> 00:45:09,520
Speaker 1: nineteen twenty three or twenty I don't even remember what

767
00:45:09,600 --> 00:45:11,840
Speaker 1: it is, but the one with Harrison Ford, which is

768
00:45:11,880 --> 00:45:16,160
Speaker 1: also very good. In eighteen eighty three, which is also

769
00:45:16,360 --> 00:45:20,680
Speaker 1: very this guy you know, or Sheridan Taylor, Sheridan, this

770
00:45:20,719 --> 00:45:24,960
Speaker 1: guy has built an empire just by executing in different

771
00:45:24,960 --> 00:45:28,400
Speaker 1: eras a similar concept and it's all very watchable. So

772
00:45:28,440 --> 00:45:29,879
Speaker 1: you're eating up a lot of the time that I'm

773
00:45:29,880 --> 00:45:32,120
Speaker 1: supposed to be looking at floral arrangements. I'm just saying

774
00:45:32,160 --> 00:45:35,319
Speaker 1: I blame you. I'm impressed. On first of all, those

775
00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:39,239
Speaker 1: shows are good and and i'd encourage people out there

776
00:45:39,280 --> 00:45:42,080
Speaker 1: who are, you know, kind of fed up with woke

777
00:45:42,239 --> 00:45:44,600
Speaker 1: pro game programming that I think you'll probably like it.

778
00:45:45,080 --> 00:45:48,480
Speaker 1: You are getting married on Saturday, right, Yeah, you are

779
00:45:48,560 --> 00:45:52,239
Speaker 1: doing the show on Friday and Monday, which is impressive,

780
00:45:52,640 --> 00:45:56,000
Speaker 1: and you leave for your honeymoon win next week late

781
00:45:56,080 --> 00:46:00,600
Speaker 1: late next week the following week. Yeah, so, so how

782
00:46:00,680 --> 00:46:05,240
Speaker 1: much time has gone into wedding planning versus honeymoon planning?

783
00:46:06,560 --> 00:46:09,480
Speaker 1: You know, we look, Carrie and I have a very

784
00:46:09,680 --> 00:46:13,680
Speaker 1: straightforward approach to this. We decide not having a massive

785
00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:17,839
Speaker 1: hundreds of person wedding, just family, immediate family really, uh

786
00:46:17,960 --> 00:46:20,719
Speaker 1: and a and a couple of She's having effectively a

787
00:46:20,719 --> 00:46:23,640
Speaker 1: couple of maids of honor and I'm just bringing my

788
00:46:23,680 --> 00:46:26,160
Speaker 1: immediate family. And we're so there will be like twenty

789
00:46:26,160 --> 00:46:30,200
Speaker 1: people there. Uh yeah, we'll be just shy at thirty. Yeah,

790
00:46:30,239 --> 00:46:33,120
Speaker 1: that's good. Thing Like that My advice to people out there,

791
00:46:33,120 --> 00:46:35,319
Speaker 1: And I would say this to my own sons, and

792
00:46:35,480 --> 00:46:38,880
Speaker 1: Mike Leach rest in Piece, former coach Mississippi State, Texas

793
00:46:38,920 --> 00:46:42,440
Speaker 1: Tech Washington State, has said this publicly before. Eloping is

794
00:46:42,440 --> 00:46:45,279
Speaker 1: not a bad move when you have gone through what

795
00:46:45,400 --> 00:46:49,520
Speaker 1: a wedding cost when you start to consider all the

796
00:46:49,640 --> 00:46:53,719
Speaker 1: different moving parts associated with it. Small wedding which you're doing,

797
00:46:53,800 --> 00:46:55,840
Speaker 1: I think is a good move or eloping is not

798
00:46:55,880 --> 00:46:58,760
Speaker 1: a bad move. I got married nineteen years ago. Almost

799
00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:01,760
Speaker 1: Laura handled everything because I was taking the bar exam.

800
00:47:01,840 --> 00:47:03,759
Speaker 1: I got married like a week after I took the

801
00:47:03,800 --> 00:47:08,160
Speaker 1: bar exam, and I knew nothing other than hey, you're

802
00:47:08,200 --> 00:47:10,560
Speaker 1: supposed to stand here and walk down. Now. I will

803
00:47:10,600 --> 00:47:12,719
Speaker 1: say this. I said it on the show the other day.

804
00:47:12,760 --> 00:47:15,720
Speaker 1: I got the worst haircut known demand that my wife

805
00:47:15,800 --> 00:47:18,080
Speaker 1: is still angry about. So I would the one bit

806
00:47:18,120 --> 00:47:21,120
Speaker 1: of advice I would give to men out there, don't

807
00:47:21,200 --> 00:47:26,440
Speaker 1: make any aggressive decisions when it comes to personal grooming

808
00:47:26,520 --> 00:47:30,000
Speaker 1: that substantially might alter the way you look. I told Kara, said,

809
00:47:30,000 --> 00:47:32,040
Speaker 1: you know, maybe I'll just shave my beard before the wedding.

810
00:47:32,360 --> 00:47:36,160
Speaker 1: Hard pass. She threw the veto on that one yellow

811
00:47:36,160 --> 00:47:40,840
Speaker 1: flag on the field past interference unacceptable. Beard stays, so

812
00:47:40,840 --> 00:47:43,880
Speaker 1: I said, okay, beard stays. So that was we averted

813
00:47:43,880 --> 00:47:47,759
Speaker 1: disaster on that one. I would say, and you know,

814
00:47:47,960 --> 00:47:51,600
Speaker 1: for me, I just I'm I you know, I used

815
00:47:51,600 --> 00:47:53,080
Speaker 1: to be a personal I feel like back in my

816
00:47:53,480 --> 00:47:56,000
Speaker 1: twenties I threw a fair amount of parties, and what

817
00:47:56,160 --> 00:47:59,080
Speaker 1: you realize is, I think it's really hard to enjoy

818
00:47:59,200 --> 00:48:02,160
Speaker 1: things when you're responsible for the enjoyment of so many others.

819
00:48:02,600 --> 00:48:04,279
Speaker 1: And that was part of what led us to the

820
00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:07,040
Speaker 1: path of just just immediate family. It's going to be really,

821
00:48:07,560 --> 00:48:11,080
Speaker 1: really simple and straightforward. I have seen. I mean, I

822
00:48:11,440 --> 00:48:13,719
Speaker 1: was at a wedding where a bride had a full on,

823
00:48:14,320 --> 00:48:16,680
Speaker 1: like planic attack, not because of a problem with a

824
00:48:16,719 --> 00:48:19,120
Speaker 1: groom in it, but because it was like the hottest

825
00:48:19,200 --> 00:48:21,880
Speaker 1: day on record. It was a July wedding, it was

826
00:48:21,960 --> 00:48:25,279
Speaker 1: mostly outside, it was one hundred plus degrees, it was

827
00:48:25,320 --> 00:48:28,799
Speaker 1: a black tie wedding, and people were basically passing out.

828
00:48:29,040 --> 00:48:30,839
Speaker 1: And she's like, what do I do? It know, It's like,

829
00:48:31,080 --> 00:48:32,960
Speaker 1: I don't need that, you know, I don't want that.

830
00:48:34,040 --> 00:48:36,839
Speaker 1: I think if you went back, and I know, if

831
00:48:36,920 --> 00:48:39,440
Speaker 1: Laura called in right now, my wife, she would say

832
00:48:39,760 --> 00:48:42,160
Speaker 1: everything about the wedding was great, except Clay got the

833
00:48:42,200 --> 00:48:45,280
Speaker 1: worst haircut that he has ever had in the entirety

834
00:48:45,320 --> 00:48:48,360
Speaker 1: of our laity. Wait, Clay, hold on there photos or

835
00:48:48,360 --> 00:48:51,360
Speaker 1: it didn't happen. My friend Clay and Buck dot Com

836
00:48:51,920 --> 00:48:53,960
Speaker 1: you can reach out. We'll put some up on Clay

837
00:48:53,960 --> 00:48:56,040
Speaker 1: and Buck dot com if my wife will permit it.

838
00:48:56,080 --> 00:48:59,600
Speaker 1: But it was I've had I've had bad bowl cut

839
00:48:59,640 --> 00:49:03,680
Speaker 1: haircut us before this was a it's a really bad haircut.

840
00:49:03,760 --> 00:49:07,480
Speaker 1: I probably should have gone back in and and gotten

841
00:49:07,520 --> 00:49:09,839
Speaker 1: it redone. I don't know if my little brothers listening

842
00:49:09,840 --> 00:49:11,880
Speaker 1: to the show today, but this reminds me and I,

843
00:49:12,480 --> 00:49:14,120
Speaker 1: you know how they're like memories when you're a kid.

844
00:49:14,680 --> 00:49:19,560
Speaker 1: I remember hearing the shriek from my mother, still, the

845
00:49:19,680 --> 00:49:23,479
Speaker 1: shriek of like of just sheer panic when I must

846
00:49:23,480 --> 00:49:25,920
Speaker 1: have been He must have been four, and so I

847
00:49:25,920 --> 00:49:28,120
Speaker 1: would have been, you know, maybe nine or ten years old,

848
00:49:28,480 --> 00:49:31,640
Speaker 1: and I remember thinking, oh, no, something terrible has happened

849
00:49:31,880 --> 00:49:35,399
Speaker 1: to my little brother. And I kind of go running in,

850
00:49:35,719 --> 00:49:37,719
Speaker 1: and of course my mom had shriek because he had

851
00:49:38,360 --> 00:49:41,640
Speaker 1: little Crayola safety scissors, not you know scissors that you

852
00:49:41,719 --> 00:49:45,600
Speaker 1: can't really cut yourself with, but he had managed to

853
00:49:45,640 --> 00:49:49,680
Speaker 1: give himself a haircut that was like like a square

854
00:49:50,160 --> 00:49:52,360
Speaker 1: going up to sort of the middle of his scalp.

855
00:49:52,719 --> 00:49:55,160
Speaker 1: I mean, he almost looked like a like a ninth

856
00:49:55,160 --> 00:49:58,000
Speaker 1: century monk or something. I mean it was he cut

857
00:49:58,080 --> 00:50:00,759
Speaker 1: his hair all the way back on his head with

858
00:50:00,840 --> 00:50:04,560
Speaker 1: these Crayola scissors. And he still gets mad when I

859
00:50:04,640 --> 00:50:08,560
Speaker 1: bring this up because of the photos. For about six

860
00:50:08,640 --> 00:50:12,239
Speaker 1: months afterwards, you know, he looked like he looked like

861
00:50:12,280 --> 00:50:14,080
Speaker 1: he had been through some stuff. A little four year

862
00:50:14,160 --> 00:50:16,200
Speaker 1: my little four year old brother at the time, because

863
00:50:16,239 --> 00:50:17,719
Speaker 1: what do you do. You're not gonna put a two

864
00:50:17,760 --> 00:50:21,320
Speaker 1: pay on him. My kids were around, My youngest was

865
00:50:21,360 --> 00:50:23,440
Speaker 1: about four years old. It reminds me of this this

866
00:50:23,480 --> 00:50:26,560
Speaker 1: hair situation. We were getting off the airplane, we were

867
00:50:26,560 --> 00:50:30,640
Speaker 1: waiting to get our bags, and my seven year old

868
00:50:31,000 --> 00:50:34,880
Speaker 1: put his gum in my four year old's hair. And

869
00:50:35,320 --> 00:50:37,480
Speaker 1: you know, my four year old still has I mean,

870
00:50:37,520 --> 00:50:40,719
Speaker 1: my middle son still has super long hair. But I

871
00:50:40,920 --> 00:50:43,360
Speaker 1: just remember how like, why would you ever think to

872
00:50:43,480 --> 00:50:45,799
Speaker 1: do that? Why you know, it's one thing to get

873
00:50:45,840 --> 00:50:48,440
Speaker 1: your own gum in your own hair. He put his

874
00:50:48,520 --> 00:50:51,000
Speaker 1: gum in his brother's hair. We were trying to get

875
00:50:51,040 --> 00:50:53,759
Speaker 1: the trying to get the bags off the conveyor belt

876
00:50:53,800 --> 00:50:56,759
Speaker 1: we were traveling, and I just remember thinking, this is

877
00:50:57,000 --> 00:51:00,000
Speaker 1: utterly ridiculous, like how do you end up in this situation?

878
00:51:01,040 --> 00:51:03,239
Speaker 1: M But but you know, parenthood, you got something to

879
00:51:03,280 --> 00:51:06,120
Speaker 1: look forward to soon after you maybe get married on Saturday.

880
00:51:06,400 --> 00:51:09,360
Speaker 1: You're gonna be here Friday and Monday. Yeah, of course,

881
00:51:10,120 --> 00:51:12,120
Speaker 1: you know, the audience is part of the fam. They

882
00:51:12,200 --> 00:51:14,000
Speaker 1: got to hear about how the whole ceremony went. So

883
00:51:14,000 --> 00:51:16,279
Speaker 1: I'll tell you guys about it all that. Um. But

884
00:51:16,440 --> 00:51:19,200
Speaker 1: I do remember also in the pandemic. It's true, you know,

885
00:51:19,680 --> 00:51:22,440
Speaker 1: true story. I got scissors sense because you couldn't get

886
00:51:22,440 --> 00:51:24,560
Speaker 1: a haircut, and I started to look like you were

887
00:51:24,640 --> 00:51:26,640
Speaker 1: in New York which is just crazy, right, No, you

888
00:51:26,680 --> 00:51:28,480
Speaker 1: couldn't do anything. How long could you not get a

889
00:51:28,480 --> 00:51:30,480
Speaker 1: haircut in New York City? I mean I think I

890
00:51:30,520 --> 00:51:33,280
Speaker 1: went for four or five months with no haircuts allowed

891
00:51:33,320 --> 00:51:35,800
Speaker 1: of any kind, you know. And I remember everyone was

892
00:51:35,800 --> 00:51:37,520
Speaker 1: also terrified. So it's not even like you could get

893
00:51:37,520 --> 00:51:39,399
Speaker 1: your friend who cuts hair, because everyone's like, oh, COVID,

894
00:51:39,400 --> 00:51:42,000
Speaker 1: They're all freaked out. So I cut my own hair,

895
00:51:42,680 --> 00:51:46,200
Speaker 1: and I can tell you it. You think you're good

896
00:51:46,239 --> 00:51:49,320
Speaker 1: at it when you're doing it, and then it grows

897
00:51:49,640 --> 00:51:51,879
Speaker 1: a little more, you know, in time, and you realize, no,

898
00:51:52,040 --> 00:51:54,000
Speaker 1: I was not good at cutting. I would never think

899
00:51:54,040 --> 00:51:55,600
Speaker 1: I was good at it now I would. I remember

900
00:51:55,640 --> 00:51:57,600
Speaker 1: the Flobie back in the day that they would sell

901
00:51:57,600 --> 00:52:00,319
Speaker 1: where you could cut your hair. I probably would have.

902
00:52:00,560 --> 00:52:04,279
Speaker 1: They didn't haircut places open back up soon in the

903
00:52:04,320 --> 00:52:07,319
Speaker 1: Free State of Tennessee and also Florida, where I was.

904
00:52:07,600 --> 00:52:10,440
Speaker 1: But I would have just gone straight buzz probably if

905
00:52:10,880 --> 00:52:12,960
Speaker 1: if I had to cut my hair, because I otherwise

906
00:52:13,000 --> 00:52:14,800
Speaker 1: wouldn't have been able to do it. I think that

907
00:52:14,920 --> 00:52:20,400
Speaker 1: going buzz cut is very, very erogynomic and aerodynamic. But

908
00:52:20,480 --> 00:52:23,520
Speaker 1: people would see the shockingly large size of my cranium,

909
00:52:23,680 --> 00:52:26,840
Speaker 1: and I would scare small children, look like a space alien.

910
00:52:26,880 --> 00:52:28,960
Speaker 1: So I don't think I could do it. Also, when

911
00:52:28,960 --> 00:52:32,040
Speaker 1: you get to be our age, there's always that fear

912
00:52:32,080 --> 00:52:34,719
Speaker 1: when you cut your hair back, is it gonna come back?

913
00:52:35,040 --> 00:52:37,279
Speaker 1: Is it all gonna come back in like normal? And

914
00:52:37,400 --> 00:52:39,480
Speaker 1: there's I mean, you get into your forties, a lot

915
00:52:39,480 --> 00:52:42,799
Speaker 1: of guys out there nodding their heads along. You might

916
00:52:42,840 --> 00:52:44,399
Speaker 1: have had hair for a long time. You go get

917
00:52:44,400 --> 00:52:46,439
Speaker 1: that buzz next thing you know, it doesn't come back

918
00:52:46,440 --> 00:52:48,799
Speaker 1: in like it did before. Our buddy Jesse Kelly taking

919
00:52:48,800 --> 00:52:51,000
Speaker 1: a shot at him. Here can look at him. No

920
00:52:51,080 --> 00:52:52,320
Speaker 1: way he can go with a buzz cut.
