1 00:00:11,697 --> 00:00:14,977 Speaker 1: You're listening to the Buck Sexton Show podcast, make sure 2 00:00:14,977 --> 00:00:17,977 Speaker 1: you subscribe to the podcast on the iHeartRadio app or 3 00:00:18,017 --> 00:00:19,737 Speaker 1: wherever you get your podcasts. 4 00:00:21,097 --> 00:00:25,697 Speaker 2: COMMI Mom, Donnie wants more of New Yorker's money. That's 5 00:00:25,737 --> 00:00:29,137 Speaker 2: not a surprise. He sat down with Martha McCollum of 6 00:00:29,137 --> 00:00:31,137 Speaker 2: Fox News, went through a whole range of issues. And 7 00:00:31,177 --> 00:00:33,217 Speaker 2: you might say, Oh, Buck, I don't live in New York, 8 00:00:33,217 --> 00:00:38,017 Speaker 2: why should I care? Well, this is the new left 9 00:00:38,257 --> 00:00:41,257 Speaker 2: on display, and the new left runs a Democrat Party, 10 00:00:41,937 --> 00:00:46,137 Speaker 2: and they're increasingly going to be I think because of 11 00:00:46,817 --> 00:00:50,977 Speaker 2: the power of these Democrat enclaves to advance people who 12 00:00:51,097 --> 00:00:55,457 Speaker 2: are not even pretending to reach out to the other side. 13 00:00:56,217 --> 00:00:58,897 Speaker 2: You're gonna see more of this. You're going to see 14 00:00:59,057 --> 00:01:03,257 Speaker 2: a surge toward the AOC wing of the Democrat Party 15 00:01:04,177 --> 00:01:08,657 Speaker 2: for a lot of younger people. And this is I think, 16 00:01:08,737 --> 00:01:12,497 Speaker 2: very troubling. But it also, if nothing else, shows us 17 00:01:12,617 --> 00:01:14,297 Speaker 2: what we're up against, as in, what does the other 18 00:01:14,337 --> 00:01:18,297 Speaker 2: side really want? So here he is saying that New 19 00:01:18,377 --> 00:01:21,457 Speaker 2: Yorkers who pay after California, New York City residents and 20 00:01:21,457 --> 00:01:23,137 Speaker 2: I used to be one pay the highest taxes in 21 00:01:23,137 --> 00:01:27,497 Speaker 2: the country after California, which it's amazing that California is 22 00:01:27,497 --> 00:01:29,817 Speaker 2: even higher, but it is. If you live in New 23 00:01:29,897 --> 00:01:31,857 Speaker 2: York City, you're paying half your income in the top 24 00:01:31,897 --> 00:01:35,857 Speaker 2: tax rate, half of your income to the City of 25 00:01:35,857 --> 00:01:39,697 Speaker 2: New York or rather, I'm sorry to all taxes, including 26 00:01:39,697 --> 00:01:40,257 Speaker 2: the City. 27 00:01:40,017 --> 00:01:40,457 Speaker 3: Of New York. 28 00:01:40,457 --> 00:01:43,137 Speaker 2: New York City is like three or four percent something 29 00:01:43,177 --> 00:01:46,417 Speaker 2: like that, and then the state tax is like ten percent, 30 00:01:46,937 --> 00:01:49,577 Speaker 2: and then federal of course tops out at thirty seven 31 00:01:49,657 --> 00:01:52,057 Speaker 2: or thirty nine, whatever it is. So you're paying half. 32 00:01:52,337 --> 00:01:54,217 Speaker 2: Zorammdani says that's not enough. 33 00:01:54,577 --> 00:01:56,577 Speaker 4: I've said that we should increase personal in complex. Fifty 34 00:01:57,817 --> 00:02:00,617 Speaker 4: is fair. And my point is this more than half 35 00:02:00,657 --> 00:02:02,737 Speaker 4: of your income. That's if you're making a million dollars 36 00:02:02,777 --> 00:02:04,697 Speaker 4: in New York City or more than that, you can 37 00:02:04,737 --> 00:02:07,297 Speaker 4: afford to pay two percent more. And the reasons you 38 00:02:07,337 --> 00:02:09,497 Speaker 4: can afford to do so is because that money will 39 00:02:09,537 --> 00:02:11,657 Speaker 4: be used to better your quality of life as well. 40 00:02:11,897 --> 00:02:14,097 Speaker 4: Because when I speak to the wealthiest New Yorkers, I 41 00:02:14,137 --> 00:02:17,457 Speaker 4: hear concerns about the cleanliness of the city, the quality 42 00:02:17,497 --> 00:02:20,177 Speaker 4: of life in the city, questions of public safety. This 43 00:02:20,337 --> 00:02:22,337 Speaker 4: money is the money that will be used to liver 44 00:02:22,457 --> 00:02:24,057 Speaker 4: on those things, so that we can ensure that we 45 00:02:24,137 --> 00:02:26,697 Speaker 4: have a return on investment for all of the money 46 00:02:26,737 --> 00:02:28,977 Speaker 4: that we are raising and spending right here across the 47 00:02:28,977 --> 00:02:29,457 Speaker 4: five borough. 48 00:02:29,737 --> 00:02:33,537 Speaker 2: You know, we should all just recognize they're never going 49 00:02:33,617 --> 00:02:36,897 Speaker 2: to learn the lesson. They're never going to say. You know, 50 00:02:36,977 --> 00:02:39,777 Speaker 2: we've taxed and taxed and taxed, and somehow the problem 51 00:02:39,817 --> 00:02:45,057 Speaker 2: never gets better. Somehow things do not improve, even when 52 00:02:45,057 --> 00:02:47,697 Speaker 2: we take more money from people who are working for 53 00:02:47,817 --> 00:02:50,657 Speaker 2: it and productive and give it to those And remember 54 00:02:50,857 --> 00:02:54,417 Speaker 2: it's not even a direct redistribution of wealth. There's always 55 00:02:54,577 --> 00:03:00,217 Speaker 2: the indirect bureaucracy blob that sits in the middle. And 56 00:03:00,657 --> 00:03:05,177 Speaker 2: like the green Slimer from Ghostbusters with just taking all 57 00:03:05,177 --> 00:03:08,057 Speaker 2: the food, remember that the great scene and Ghostbusters in 58 00:03:08,497 --> 00:03:12,297 Speaker 2: the hotel where Slimer's got all the hot dogs and everything, 59 00:03:12,297 --> 00:03:15,617 Speaker 2: he's just chowing down on. That is the bureaucracy, whether 60 00:03:15,657 --> 00:03:20,217 Speaker 2: it's city, state, or federal, just just chowing down on 61 00:03:20,297 --> 00:03:22,297 Speaker 2: your tax dollars. And what do you get out of it. 62 00:03:22,337 --> 00:03:27,137 Speaker 2: You get slimed, You get slimed, and this never changes. 63 00:03:27,577 --> 00:03:31,257 Speaker 2: He does not get better. And the idea that somehow 64 00:03:31,377 --> 00:03:35,097 Speaker 2: the city would improve if only people paid a little more, No, 65 00:03:35,177 --> 00:03:39,377 Speaker 2: you're going to have more flight from New York City 66 00:03:39,417 --> 00:03:41,977 Speaker 2: by high earners. Not as much as you saw during COVID, 67 00:03:42,017 --> 00:03:43,857 Speaker 2: but you're going to have more people who say enough 68 00:03:43,897 --> 00:03:48,057 Speaker 2: is enough. And that's going to put even more pressure 69 00:03:48,057 --> 00:03:52,097 Speaker 2: on the tax base because people have options, thankfully because 70 00:03:52,137 --> 00:03:56,777 Speaker 2: of states like Nashville, I'm sorry, Tennessee and Florida and 71 00:03:56,857 --> 00:04:01,417 Speaker 2: Texas and Nevada and New Hampshire where there all of 72 00:04:01,577 --> 00:04:05,297 Speaker 2: which have I think Alaska also there have zero state 73 00:04:05,337 --> 00:04:08,177 Speaker 2: income tax. I think Washington State actually maybe's in there 74 00:04:08,177 --> 00:04:13,977 Speaker 2: two zero state income tax. And this means that places 75 00:04:13,977 --> 00:04:16,297 Speaker 2: like New York, if they just keep squeezing and squeezing, 76 00:04:16,337 --> 00:04:20,857 Speaker 2: they're going to have a tougher and tougher problem meeting 77 00:04:20,937 --> 00:04:25,097 Speaker 2: the outlandish budgetary obligations that they have. But here you go. 78 00:04:25,137 --> 00:04:27,257 Speaker 2: You got Mom Donnie saying, you know what, I'm going 79 00:04:27,337 --> 00:04:31,177 Speaker 2: to address crime, for example, by addressing the mental health 80 00:04:31,217 --> 00:04:32,577 Speaker 2: crisis three times. 81 00:04:32,617 --> 00:04:34,897 Speaker 4: If you look at the New York Times, they did 82 00:04:34,897 --> 00:04:38,897 Speaker 4: an investigation on a thousand different incidents of violent crime 83 00:04:38,897 --> 00:04:41,417 Speaker 4: in the city tied to mental health episodes. They found 84 00:04:41,457 --> 00:04:44,177 Speaker 4: that so many of those same New Yorkers were failed 85 00:04:44,417 --> 00:04:46,217 Speaker 4: by the interactions they had with the city when they 86 00:04:46,257 --> 00:04:49,457 Speaker 4: went for help for mental health systems, and that failure 87 00:04:49,977 --> 00:04:52,657 Speaker 4: is a blight. It is a stain on our city, 88 00:04:52,697 --> 00:04:54,897 Speaker 4: and it's a failure that I'm looking to fix by 89 00:04:54,937 --> 00:04:58,617 Speaker 4: actually transforming this with the only comprehensive plan for public 90 00:04:58,657 --> 00:05:00,697 Speaker 4: safety of any of the candidates. Because what we are 91 00:05:00,737 --> 00:05:03,017 Speaker 4: going to do is put out a plan and a 92 00:05:03,057 --> 00:05:05,017 Speaker 4: proposal that we have shared with the New Yorkers to 93 00:05:05,057 --> 00:05:07,937 Speaker 4: create the Department of Community Safety that would bring together 94 00:05:08,057 --> 00:05:11,537 Speaker 4: all of these pre existing silos that address mental health crisis, 95 00:05:11,537 --> 00:05:14,817 Speaker 4: that address homelessness into one department, provide it with the 96 00:05:14,857 --> 00:05:17,777 Speaker 4: funding necessary, and actually addressed where did these people go? 97 00:05:17,857 --> 00:05:17,977 Speaker 3: Though? 98 00:05:18,417 --> 00:05:23,417 Speaker 2: This goes in the category of a nice idea, but 99 00:05:24,417 --> 00:05:29,457 Speaker 2: if it were something that was even vaguely possible, I 100 00:05:29,457 --> 00:05:33,497 Speaker 2: would want to hear more about it. I remember when Deblasio, 101 00:05:33,617 --> 00:05:36,617 Speaker 2: the former terrible mayor also really a COMI just not 102 00:05:36,697 --> 00:05:40,097 Speaker 2: as out loud and proud about it. When Deblasio had 103 00:05:40,097 --> 00:05:42,777 Speaker 2: his wife doing a lot of stuff for mental health 104 00:05:42,777 --> 00:05:45,137 Speaker 2: in New York eight hundred million dollars. I interviewed her 105 00:05:45,177 --> 00:05:46,937 Speaker 2: about this when I used to be on the Hill 106 00:05:46,977 --> 00:05:51,417 Speaker 2: TV show and no one could figure out what happened 107 00:05:51,417 --> 00:05:55,297 Speaker 2: to the eight hundred million dollars that Deblasio's wife Charlaine 108 00:05:56,177 --> 00:05:58,977 Speaker 2: had taken of city funds. No one really seemed to know. 109 00:05:59,017 --> 00:06:01,617 Speaker 2: I mean it was spent, but on what what was 110 00:06:01,657 --> 00:06:05,537 Speaker 2: the benefit of this? Mental health is a very complicated thing, 111 00:06:05,737 --> 00:06:09,097 Speaker 2: especially at the mass level, as in millions of people 112 00:06:10,617 --> 00:06:15,737 Speaker 2: the mental health crisis. Unless Mom Donnie's plan is to 113 00:06:15,817 --> 00:06:21,417 Speaker 2: take people who are obviously mentally ill and remove them 114 00:06:21,497 --> 00:06:27,137 Speaker 2: from the streets, nothing will get better, nothing will improve 115 00:06:28,177 --> 00:06:30,217 Speaker 2: when it comes to the city of New York and 116 00:06:30,337 --> 00:06:34,737 Speaker 2: it's mental health, It's just not going to happen. Now, 117 00:06:34,777 --> 00:06:39,817 Speaker 2: why doesn't he know this? Well, he lives in the 118 00:06:40,177 --> 00:06:43,577 Speaker 2: world of fantasy land. Unfortunately, in a city like New York, 119 00:06:43,617 --> 00:06:46,897 Speaker 2: we're only twenty percent of the voters are going to vote. 120 00:06:47,657 --> 00:06:51,297 Speaker 2: You can get lunatics to be your base and win, 121 00:06:52,177 --> 00:06:55,217 Speaker 2: and that is what is going to happen in New York. 122 00:06:55,977 --> 00:06:58,537 Speaker 2: It is troubling. I can't think of another not for 123 00:06:58,617 --> 00:07:01,897 Speaker 2: profit that does as much work, day in and day 124 00:07:01,937 --> 00:07:05,217 Speaker 2: out to save the lives of babies as Preborn does. 125 00:07:05,777 --> 00:07:08,457 Speaker 2: Think about what happened for Victoria at one of their clinics. 126 00:07:08,497 --> 00:07:10,897 Speaker 2: You would in scared and confuse to a planned parenthood 127 00:07:10,897 --> 00:07:13,337 Speaker 2: clinic first, she was handed the abortion pill, and she 128 00:07:13,417 --> 00:07:16,577 Speaker 2: knew immediately that wasn't the right decision for her. So 129 00:07:16,817 --> 00:07:21,097 Speaker 2: her continuing search led her to a preborn clinic where truth, clarity, 130 00:07:21,497 --> 00:07:24,977 Speaker 2: and God broke through. A loving staff member gave her 131 00:07:25,017 --> 00:07:27,777 Speaker 2: immediate care and helped her save not just her baby's life, 132 00:07:27,817 --> 00:07:31,297 Speaker 2: but her own. Victoria got truthful answers about matters related 133 00:07:31,337 --> 00:07:34,017 Speaker 2: to her unborn child at that preborn clinic. When a 134 00:07:34,057 --> 00:07:36,817 Speaker 2: mother hears that, when she has that connection to the 135 00:07:36,817 --> 00:07:39,417 Speaker 2: baby in the womb, lives are saved, and it begins 136 00:07:39,457 --> 00:07:42,257 Speaker 2: with that free ultrasound they give her. At preborn clinics, 137 00:07:42,497 --> 00:07:45,777 Speaker 2: for just twenty eight dollars, you can sponsor an ultrasound. 138 00:07:45,897 --> 00:07:48,457 Speaker 2: This is your chance to make a difference.

And then. 144 00:08:06,097 --> 00:08:06,337 Speaker 4: JB. 145 00:08:06,457 --> 00:08:11,177 Speaker 2: Pritzker decided to go after Stephen Miller, and this was 146 00:08:11,257 --> 00:08:13,137 Speaker 2: not going to go well for mister Pritzker. 147 00:08:13,537 --> 00:08:16,937 Speaker 3: Think about Steven Miller, I mean Stephen Miller clearly is 148 00:08:16,977 --> 00:08:22,737 Speaker 3: the one pushing the tactics at DHS, at CBP at ice. 149 00:08:23,337 --> 00:08:26,977 Speaker 3: He's clearly the person that is aiming to have Donald 150 00:08:26,977 --> 00:08:33,457 Speaker 3: Trump become an authoritarian leader. And I wish that, you know, 151 00:08:33,537 --> 00:08:37,657 Speaker 3: people could you know, at least recognize that Stephen Miller's 152 00:08:37,657 --> 00:08:42,457 Speaker 3: bad for the country and he is abusing the fact 153 00:08:42,457 --> 00:08:44,497 Speaker 3: that Donald Trump has diminished capacity. 154 00:08:44,977 --> 00:08:49,617 Speaker 2: You know, Stephen Miller is doing a phenomenal job, a 155 00:08:49,657 --> 00:08:53,297 Speaker 2: phenomenal job in this White House. Honestly, one of my 156 00:08:53,337 --> 00:08:55,817 Speaker 2: top draft picks for this White House team, Steven Miller. 157 00:08:56,537 --> 00:09:00,417 Speaker 2: And the fact that JB. Pritzker, a NEPO baby, thinks 158 00:09:00,457 --> 00:09:03,417 Speaker 2: that he is in a different weight class than Steven 159 00:09:03,457 --> 00:09:08,617 Speaker 2: Miller is just wrong. Okay, Steven Miller can throw down 160 00:09:08,777 --> 00:09:11,977 Speaker 2: with even the heaviest heavyweights, as he has done so 161 00:09:12,057 --> 00:09:17,177 Speaker 2: many times. And this idea that the authoritarianism of Trump 162 00:09:17,257 --> 00:09:21,257 Speaker 2: goes through Stephen Miller, this is just Pritzker trying to 163 00:09:21,337 --> 00:09:26,417 Speaker 2: feed his radical left base some nonsense that they can 164 00:09:26,457 --> 00:09:29,457 Speaker 2: send their teeth into. But to me, it's just it's 165 00:09:29,537 --> 00:09:32,657 Speaker 2: crazy talk. And Steven Miller responded with this, well. 166 00:09:32,537 --> 00:09:34,297 Speaker 1: I mean, he's a fool, and he's a moron. But 167 00:09:34,337 --> 00:09:38,297 Speaker 1: also most importantly, Sean, he hates America. And let's just 168 00:09:38,297 --> 00:09:42,337 Speaker 1: be honest about it. You can't love your country and 169 00:09:42,377 --> 00:09:47,017 Speaker 1: then fight President Trump to keep murderers murdering.
