1 00:00:11,657 --> 00:00:14,937 Speaker 1: You're listening to the buck Sexton Joe podcast, make sure 2 00:00:14,937 --> 00:00:17,937 Speaker 1: you subscribe to the podcast on the iHeartRadio app or 3 00:00:17,977 --> 00:00:23,257 Speaker 1: wherever you get your podcasts. The situation is growing desperate 4 00:00:23,257 --> 00:00:26,137 Speaker 1: for Ukraine as Russia continues to pound major cities with 5 00:00:26,177 --> 00:00:28,497 Speaker 1: air strikes and artillery. A matter of fact, the issue 6 00:00:28,537 --> 00:00:31,337 Speaker 1: is so urgent the President Biden will travel to Europe 7 00:00:31,337 --> 00:00:34,577 Speaker 1: for an emergency NATO summit later this month. That should 8 00:00:34,577 --> 00:00:37,297 Speaker 1: be comforting to the countless civilians hunker down at bomb shelters. 9 00:00:37,377 --> 00:00:40,417 Speaker 1: Joe Biden is on the way. Friends, It's time for 10 00:00:40,457 --> 00:00:49,737 Speaker 1: holding line. Welcome to hold the line on buck Sexton. 11 00:00:49,937 --> 00:00:53,977 Speaker 1: The Ukraine is getting worse with each passing day, as 12 00:00:54,017 --> 00:00:58,497 Speaker 1: we had assumed here that it would, despite the early 13 00:00:58,857 --> 00:01:01,897 Speaker 1: assessments from people who got most of their information about 14 00:01:01,977 --> 00:01:05,017 Speaker 1: Ukraine from the latest meme they had seen on Twitter 15 00:01:05,137 --> 00:01:09,017 Speaker 1: or Facebook. The Russian war machine is grinding on. The 16 00:01:09,057 --> 00:01:13,617 Speaker 1: civilian casualty are mounting, and the destruction is getting worse 17 00:01:13,697 --> 00:01:16,257 Speaker 1: with each passing hour. This is a conflict that we 18 00:01:16,297 --> 00:01:19,817 Speaker 1: need to end as soon as possible to save as 19 00:01:19,857 --> 00:01:23,217 Speaker 1: many lives as possible inside of Ukraine. That's almost certainly 20 00:01:23,257 --> 00:01:27,297 Speaker 1: going to be through some form of negotiated settlement. Even 21 00:01:27,337 --> 00:01:31,617 Speaker 1: if the Russians are unable to in the fashion the 22 00:01:31,697 --> 00:01:34,537 Speaker 1: speed with which they had planned take the capital city 23 00:01:34,577 --> 00:01:38,017 Speaker 1: of Kiev, the Ukrainians are unlikely to be able to 24 00:01:38,057 --> 00:01:42,617 Speaker 1: take back lost territory given the military disparities involved here. 25 00:01:42,857 --> 00:01:46,817 Speaker 1: So a negotiated settlement is the way out almost certainly. 26 00:01:47,257 --> 00:01:50,137 Speaker 1: And you would think that, given that diplomacy will play 27 00:01:50,177 --> 00:01:52,977 Speaker 1: such a large role in all of this, we would 28 00:01:53,017 --> 00:01:55,617 Speaker 1: have a moment where the US would step in and 29 00:01:55,737 --> 00:02:01,497 Speaker 1: be able to provide well some leadership. But unfortunately Joe Biden, 30 00:02:02,337 --> 00:02:06,017 Speaker 1: when he seems to be paying attention and seems coagent enough, 31 00:02:06,457 --> 00:02:09,177 Speaker 1: is the commander in chief and he is who we 32 00:02:09,217 --> 00:02:13,697 Speaker 1: are relying on here to run that effort in the end. Jensaki, 33 00:02:13,697 --> 00:02:17,057 Speaker 1: White House Press Press secretary saying today that Biden is 34 00:02:17,097 --> 00:02:19,977 Speaker 1: going to go to NATO a NATO summit later this 35 00:02:20,017 --> 00:02:23,977 Speaker 1: month to try to figure out this mess. Also some 36 00:02:24,057 --> 00:02:26,697 Speaker 1: news some of you have been asking about. President will 37 00:02:26,737 --> 00:02:29,697 Speaker 1: travel to Brussels, Belgium later this month, where he will 38 00:02:29,817 --> 00:02:33,417 Speaker 1: join an extraordinary NATO summit on March twenty fourth to 39 00:02:33,537 --> 00:02:36,857 Speaker 1: discuss ongoing to terrence and defense efforts in response to 40 00:02:36,937 --> 00:02:41,137 Speaker 1: Russia's unprovoked and unjustified attack on Ukraine, as well as 41 00:02:41,137 --> 00:02:45,337 Speaker 1: to reaffirm our Ironcloud commitment to our NATO allies. He 42 00:02:45,417 --> 00:02:48,577 Speaker 1: will also join a scheduled European Council's summit to discuss 43 00:02:48,577 --> 00:02:53,057 Speaker 1: our shared concerns about Ukraine, including transatlantic efforts to impose 44 00:02:53,137 --> 00:02:57,537 Speaker 1: economic costs on Russia, provide humanitarian support to those affected 45 00:02:57,537 --> 00:03:02,217 Speaker 1: by the violence, and address other challenges related to the conflict. 46 00:03:04,497 --> 00:03:08,457 Speaker 1: Express concerns at meetings. That's what Joe Biden will be 47 00:03:08,457 --> 00:03:11,417 Speaker 1: doing later this month, which one would think indicates that 48 00:03:11,457 --> 00:03:13,697 Speaker 1: no one believes this is going to come to a conclusion, 49 00:03:13,737 --> 00:03:18,177 Speaker 1: this war anytime soon, and so, as is often the case, 50 00:03:18,217 --> 00:03:22,137 Speaker 1: we're forced to wonder what exactly is the Biden administration 51 00:03:22,257 --> 00:03:24,377 Speaker 1: plan here? Is there one? Do they have an idea 52 00:03:24,417 --> 00:03:26,417 Speaker 1: of how they think this can be brought to an end, 53 00:03:26,457 --> 00:03:28,937 Speaker 1: what that would even look like. While that's going on, 54 00:03:29,017 --> 00:03:32,177 Speaker 1: they are also continuing calls for a no fly zone, 55 00:03:32,177 --> 00:03:36,017 Speaker 1: and not just from the punditocracy and some democratic even 56 00:03:36,017 --> 00:03:39,697 Speaker 1: a handful of Republican lawmakers in this country. Estonia is 57 00:03:39,737 --> 00:03:43,617 Speaker 1: now the first NATO country to call for officially a 58 00:03:43,697 --> 00:03:46,497 Speaker 1: no fly zone in Ukraine. Now, Estonians a very small 59 00:03:46,537 --> 00:03:48,497 Speaker 1: country and would be a very small part, if a 60 00:03:48,497 --> 00:03:50,417 Speaker 1: part at all, of the no fly zone. But the 61 00:03:50,537 --> 00:03:53,817 Speaker 1: Estonian Parliament asked the UN member States to take immediate 62 00:03:53,857 --> 00:03:56,857 Speaker 1: steps to establish a no fly zone in order to 63 00:03:56,937 --> 00:04:02,617 Speaker 1: prevent massive civilian casualties in Ukraine. Now, this too many 64 00:04:03,017 --> 00:04:05,817 Speaker 1: sounds like something that would be a good idea, and 65 00:04:05,857 --> 00:04:08,977 Speaker 1: then they learn often what a no fly zone want 66 00:04:08,977 --> 00:04:11,577 Speaker 1: a tail, which is the willingness to not only put 67 00:04:11,697 --> 00:04:15,177 Speaker 1: US and other NATO ally planes at risk by flying 68 00:04:15,177 --> 00:04:18,097 Speaker 1: over an active war zone in Ukraine, but to shoot 69 00:04:18,137 --> 00:04:21,657 Speaker 1: down to enforce the no fly zone Russian planes, and also, 70 00:04:21,857 --> 00:04:23,577 Speaker 1: in order to be able to safely fly in the 71 00:04:23,617 --> 00:04:27,017 Speaker 1: first place, to destroy Russian surface to air missiles that 72 00:04:27,057 --> 00:04:30,577 Speaker 1: would be deployed both inside and inside Ukraine and on 73 00:04:30,657 --> 00:04:35,457 Speaker 1: Russian soil. So how is that supposed to work? Exactly well. 74 00:04:35,617 --> 00:04:39,897 Speaker 1: Zelenski addressed the Canadian Parliament today and he said that 75 00:04:39,937 --> 00:04:42,977 Speaker 1: he believes a no fly zone is in fact a 76 00:04:43,057 --> 00:04:47,577 Speaker 1: moral obligation of the West, and he will be addressing 77 00:04:47,777 --> 00:04:51,737 Speaker 1: Congress tomorrow, so there'll be more calls for that, I'm sure. 78 00:04:52,137 --> 00:04:56,537 Speaker 1: In the meantime, the Saki rather the Biden regime has 79 00:04:56,617 --> 00:04:59,617 Speaker 1: Jensaki out there telling everybody that a no fly zone 80 00:04:59,777 --> 00:05:04,137 Speaker 1: would be seen as esculatory. Watch. It is also true 81 00:05:04,297 --> 00:05:06,897 Speaker 1: that the president has to look at decisions that are 82 00:05:06,937 --> 00:05:09,297 Speaker 1: made through the prism of what is in our national 83 00:05:09,337 --> 00:05:13,937 Speaker 1: security interest and global security interests, and he continues to 84 00:05:14,017 --> 00:05:18,057 Speaker 1: believe that a no fly zone would be escalatory, could 85 00:05:18,097 --> 00:05:20,897 Speaker 1: prompt a war with Russia. I don't believe there's a 86 00:05:20,897 --> 00:05:23,017 Speaker 1: lot of advocates calling for that at this point in 87 00:05:23,097 --> 00:05:26,417 Speaker 1: time from Capitol Hill, but we certainly understand and recognize 88 00:05:26,457 --> 00:05:30,857 Speaker 1: that is still a call from President Zelenski. There are 89 00:05:30,937 --> 00:05:33,017 Speaker 1: some on Capitol Hill who have said they want one, 90 00:05:33,617 --> 00:05:36,737 Speaker 1: and there are certainly those in the American public who 91 00:05:36,777 --> 00:05:39,737 Speaker 1: believe that a no fly zone would somehow serve the 92 00:05:39,737 --> 00:05:42,337 Speaker 1: purpose as the national security interests of the United States, 93 00:05:42,377 --> 00:05:44,257 Speaker 1: which is what we're supposed to be thinking about first 94 00:05:44,257 --> 00:05:46,937 Speaker 1: and foremost. Even though the moment you start to add 95 00:05:46,977 --> 00:05:50,817 Speaker 1: all these pieces together, you wonder what exactly do those 96 00:05:50,817 --> 00:05:55,257 Speaker 1: people think The Russian response would be completely understandable that 97 00:05:55,297 --> 00:05:57,257 Speaker 1: from the Zelenski point of view, he just wants as 98 00:05:57,337 --> 00:05:59,617 Speaker 1: much help as he can get to try to hold 99 00:05:59,657 --> 00:06:03,497 Speaker 1: back and defend himself at as people against the Russians, 100 00:06:04,617 --> 00:06:06,617 Speaker 1: so he wants a no fly zone. But it was 101 00:06:06,657 --> 00:06:09,537 Speaker 1: interesting today he also seemed to indicate, and this was 102 00:06:09,617 --> 00:06:12,497 Speaker 1: central to how we even got into this mess in 103 00:06:12,577 --> 00:06:14,497 Speaker 1: the first place, how the foreign policy elites and the 104 00:06:14,537 --> 00:06:19,217 Speaker 1: national security apparatus of NATO in the US were unable 105 00:06:19,257 --> 00:06:22,017 Speaker 1: to prevent this war from breaking out, which they seem 106 00:06:22,097 --> 00:06:24,897 Speaker 1: to believe up until the bullets started flying, they'd be 107 00:06:24,937 --> 00:06:29,257 Speaker 1: able to. Zelenski seemed to indicate today that NATO membership 108 00:06:29,257 --> 00:06:32,737 Speaker 1: for Ukraine was unlikely to ever happen, which goes to 109 00:06:32,777 --> 00:06:36,417 Speaker 1: the center of what the possible negotiated sentlement settlement here 110 00:06:36,457 --> 00:06:40,057 Speaker 1: may involve. Here's Zelenski, the President of Ukraine, saying along 111 00:06:40,057 --> 00:07:05,777 Speaker 1: those lines, that's what's going to happen. NAT says, it's 112 00:07:05,897 --> 00:07:08,657 Speaker 1: the truth that we probably won't be able to join 113 00:07:08,737 --> 00:07:11,257 Speaker 1: you join NATO, and we we should admit it. So 114 00:07:11,417 --> 00:07:14,657 Speaker 1: that's Zelenski himself. This could be a major component of 115 00:07:14,697 --> 00:07:19,057 Speaker 1: a negotiation to end conflict. Back here in the States, 116 00:07:19,377 --> 00:07:21,657 Speaker 1: a couple of folks, Dug Fife and John Hannah, are 117 00:07:21,697 --> 00:07:24,617 Speaker 1: proposing a humanitarian airlift to Ukraine. They wrote this in 118 00:07:24,617 --> 00:07:26,897 Speaker 1: the page of the Wall Street Journal. We proposed an 119 00:07:26,897 --> 00:07:29,497 Speaker 1: international airlift organized and supported by the US. The goal 120 00:07:29,497 --> 00:07:32,337 Speaker 1: would be to provide food, medicine, and other non military 121 00:07:32,337 --> 00:07:35,457 Speaker 1: supplies for days, weeks, maybe longer. Countries viewed as not 122 00:07:35,537 --> 00:07:38,257 Speaker 1: hostle the Russia, perhaps Brazil, Egypt, India, and the United 123 00:07:38,257 --> 00:07:41,297 Speaker 1: Arab Emirates could take the lead in flying planes into Ukraine. 124 00:07:41,657 --> 00:07:44,937 Speaker 1: Humanitarian efforts are certainly worthy and a good idea. We 125 00:07:44,977 --> 00:07:48,777 Speaker 1: should be helping as much as we can, but that's 126 00:07:48,817 --> 00:07:51,177 Speaker 1: not going to end the conflict itself. That's not going 127 00:07:51,217 --> 00:07:53,537 Speaker 1: to deal with the central challenge. A central problem here 128 00:07:54,257 --> 00:07:55,817 Speaker 1: for many of us who are trying to view this 129 00:07:55,897 --> 00:08:00,057 Speaker 1: situation as adults that are dealing with life and death 130 00:08:01,097 --> 00:08:04,857 Speaker 1: in Ukraine, that the utter seriousness of this requires the 131 00:08:04,977 --> 00:08:09,697 Speaker 1: putting aside of the usual partisan petty nonsense. Unfortunately, that's 132 00:08:09,737 --> 00:08:12,897 Speaker 1: not the even for some elected officials in this country. 133 00:08:12,897 --> 00:08:15,857 Speaker 1: It's certainly not the case the Democrat Aligne media. Former 134 00:08:15,897 --> 00:08:20,697 Speaker 1: Senator Claire McCaskill is among many, including Senator from Illinois 135 00:08:20,697 --> 00:08:23,417 Speaker 1: Dit Durban, who's out there saying similar things that the 136 00:08:23,537 --> 00:08:27,497 Speaker 1: enemy isn't really putin, The enemy is putin mouthpiece or 137 00:08:27,537 --> 00:08:32,097 Speaker 1: putin's mouthpieces of this country, including as they just slander 138 00:08:32,217 --> 00:08:36,657 Speaker 1: him here Tucker Carlson watched. He also needs to warn 139 00:08:36,817 --> 00:08:42,897 Speaker 1: America about allowing Putin to use them for his propaganda, 140 00:08:43,057 --> 00:08:46,937 Speaker 1: and I particularly hope he mentions the false flag about 141 00:08:47,217 --> 00:08:51,777 Speaker 1: biological weapons in Ukraine, so that all the Republicans here 142 00:08:52,337 --> 00:08:57,337 Speaker 1: that Tucker Carlson and others are really really close to 143 00:08:57,457 --> 00:09:01,697 Speaker 1: treason in terms of what they're saying and parroting. What 144 00:09:02,577 --> 00:09:07,857 Speaker 1: is Putin's dream that he could have American media spreading 145 00:09:07,937 --> 00:09:12,177 Speaker 1: his propaganda in the middle of his murderous assault on 146 00:09:12,337 --> 00:09:17,937 Speaker 1: innocent children and civilians in Ukraine. It's just total garbage 147 00:09:17,937 --> 00:09:21,177 Speaker 1: coming out of that woman's mouth. Many Democrats saying similar things, though, 148 00:09:21,417 --> 00:09:24,217 Speaker 1: First of all, how would one be committing treason against Ukraine. 149 00:09:24,497 --> 00:09:26,697 Speaker 1: I'm not, nor as Tucker nor any of the other 150 00:09:27,177 --> 00:09:29,617 Speaker 1: folks on the right who are trying to look at 151 00:09:29,657 --> 00:09:33,777 Speaker 1: this with clear eyes Ukrainian citizens or members of the 152 00:09:33,897 --> 00:09:38,737 Speaker 1: Ukrainian government or military. We're not committing treason against Ukraine. 153 00:09:38,737 --> 00:09:42,057 Speaker 1: That's absurd. And beyond that, there was no false flag up. 154 00:09:42,177 --> 00:09:44,697 Speaker 1: What is she even talking about? But it doesn't matter, 155 00:09:44,737 --> 00:09:47,137 Speaker 1: you see, because for the left, the real enemies are 156 00:09:47,177 --> 00:09:49,337 Speaker 1: always here at home. It doesn't matter what's going on abroad. 157 00:09:49,377 --> 00:09:53,377 Speaker 1: The real enemies are always they're fellow Americans or according 158 00:09:53,417 --> 00:09:55,177 Speaker 1: to new reports, latter of Putin has reached out the 159 00:09:55,257 --> 00:09:58,257 Speaker 1: China for assistance in his nation's invasion of Ukraine. So 160 00:09:58,577 --> 00:10:01,377 Speaker 1: is the Chinese Communist Party willing to bail out Putin? 161 00:10:01,697 --> 00:10:04,617 Speaker 1: I'll ask senior research fellow out the Heritage Foundation, Dean Chang, 162 00:10:04,617 --> 00:10:06,497 Speaker 1: when we come back. First, I want to talk to 163 00:10:06,537 --> 00:10:08,737 Speaker 1: you about protecting your online data. A lot of companies 164 00:10:08,777 --> 00:10:11,777 Speaker 1: promise your privacies guaranteed. We know that's not true. That's 165 00:10:11,817 --> 00:10:14,777 Speaker 1: why you need a new privacy and cybersecurity application tool 166 00:10:14,817 --> 00:10:18,257 Speaker 1: called Secure. It's spelled SEK. You are. Secure is using 167 00:10:18,257 --> 00:10:21,897 Speaker 1: proprietary encryption and offering secure instant message again email with 168 00:10:22,097 --> 00:10:24,537 Speaker 1: Secure all of your communications based on servers and data 169 00:10:24,537 --> 00:10:27,137 Speaker 1: centers hosted in Switzerland, without using any of the big 170 00:10:27,137 --> 00:10:29,857 Speaker 1: tech platforms. Privacy is a big issue. That's why you 171 00:10:29,897 --> 00:10:32,737 Speaker 1: need Secure.

Dean Chan 179 00:10:52,577 --> 00:11:00,857 Speaker 1: joins US when we come back, stay with US. Western 180 00:11:00,857 --> 00:11:03,657 Speaker 1: officials are claiming China has shown a willingness to offer 181 00:11:03,737 --> 00:11:06,737 Speaker 1: military and financial support to Russia as part of its 182 00:11:06,737 --> 00:11:10,257 Speaker 1: war on Ukraine. According to reports, the assistance Russia has 183 00:11:10,257 --> 00:11:13,857 Speaker 1: requested include prepackaged military food kits, known in the US 184 00:11:13,977 --> 00:11:17,617 Speaker 1: as Meals Ready to Eat or MRIs. After news broke yesterday, 185 00:11:17,657 --> 00:11:22,337 Speaker 1: President Biden's National Security advisor, Jake Sullivan conveyed deep concerns 186 00:11:22,337 --> 00:11:25,257 Speaker 1: to a top Chinese diplomat in Rome and what was 187 00:11:25,297 --> 00:11:28,737 Speaker 1: a quote intense seven hours session. Reflecting the gravity of 188 00:11:28,737 --> 00:11:32,657 Speaker 1: the moment, Biden official said, the US warned that China 189 00:11:32,697 --> 00:11:36,017 Speaker 1: could face grave consequences for supporting Russia. So what would 190 00:11:36,057 --> 00:11:39,177 Speaker 1: that be? Let's ask senior research fellow at the Heritage Foundation, 191 00:11:39,537 --> 00:11:42,497 Speaker 1: Dean Chang. Dean, thanks for being here, thank you for 192 00:11:42,577 --> 00:11:46,457 Speaker 1: having me. So what is the reality of whether China 193 00:11:46,697 --> 00:11:50,977 Speaker 1: is helping out Russia in this situation or not? Or 194 00:11:50,977 --> 00:11:53,177 Speaker 1: in what ways, I mean, where are they being helpful? 195 00:11:53,217 --> 00:11:58,137 Speaker 1: Where are they holding back? Well, we know that they are. 196 00:11:58,297 --> 00:12:02,297 Speaker 1: Certainly the Chinese are definitely helping the Russians diplomatically, politically, 197 00:12:02,977 --> 00:12:08,377 Speaker 1: to some extent financially, signing contracts with various Russian entities. 198 00:12:09,657 --> 00:12:13,457 Speaker 1: The story that is in the news right now, of course, 199 00:12:13,457 --> 00:12:16,857 Speaker 1: about military assistance is much less clear. We're hearing a 200 00:12:16,857 --> 00:12:22,977 Speaker 1: lot from American sources, always unnamed, always anonymous, that Russia 201 00:12:23,017 --> 00:12:26,657 Speaker 1: has approached China, and perhaps China's even agreed, but nothing 202 00:12:27,137 --> 00:12:30,417 Speaker 1: firmer than that, And over the last several years, in 203 00:12:30,497 --> 00:12:34,377 Speaker 1: my personal opinion, anonymous sources have often not proven to 204 00:12:34,417 --> 00:12:38,337 Speaker 1: be accurate. So what are your expectations for how China 205 00:12:38,377 --> 00:12:44,417 Speaker 1: will respond to the diplomatic diplomatic intreaties pressure, I guess, 206 00:12:44,457 --> 00:12:46,937 Speaker 1: depending on how you want to put it, from Western nations, 207 00:12:46,977 --> 00:12:49,337 Speaker 1: notably the US, I mean yesterday long meetings with Jake 208 00:12:49,377 --> 00:12:54,657 Speaker 1: Sullivan in Rome and Chinese intermediaries. What do you think we, 209 00:12:55,057 --> 00:12:57,977 Speaker 1: or rather the Biden administration is trying to get from 210 00:12:58,017 --> 00:13:03,217 Speaker 1: them and how likely are they to go along with it? Well, 211 00:13:03,457 --> 00:13:06,457 Speaker 1: let's remember, first off, that this meeting in Rome actually 212 00:13:06,457 --> 00:13:10,017 Speaker 1: was scheduled foreign advance it was a matter of guess 213 00:13:10,257 --> 00:13:13,297 Speaker 1: good timing in a sense that it occurs in the 214 00:13:13,297 --> 00:13:15,537 Speaker 1: middle of this war, but that was not the situation 215 00:13:15,537 --> 00:13:18,697 Speaker 1: when it was originally scheduled. I think that the Biden 216 00:13:18,697 --> 00:13:22,537 Speaker 1: administration is probably hoping to do at least one of 217 00:13:22,577 --> 00:13:27,057 Speaker 1: two things, if there is an actual Russian request, to 218 00:13:27,417 --> 00:13:32,337 Speaker 1: publicize it and shame maybe the Chinese into not complying, 219 00:13:32,857 --> 00:13:36,257 Speaker 1: and otherwise just trying to in a sense, preempt any 220 00:13:36,297 --> 00:13:39,977 Speaker 1: possible Chinese assistance. Whether or not that will succeed is 221 00:13:40,097 --> 00:13:43,937 Speaker 1: much less clear, in part because the Chinese and Russians 222 00:13:44,257 --> 00:13:48,257 Speaker 1: clearly are willing to cooperate in a non military way. 223 00:13:48,297 --> 00:13:51,937 Speaker 1: They issued a joint statement on February fourth, on the 224 00:13:51,977 --> 00:13:55,897 Speaker 1: eve of the Winter Olympics. It's not clear that China 225 00:13:55,977 --> 00:13:58,857 Speaker 1: is going to supply Russia with weapons. I think it's 226 00:13:58,857 --> 00:14:02,897 Speaker 1: also important to note here that there are broadly speaking 227 00:14:03,017 --> 00:14:06,297 Speaker 1: three areas where the Chinese could be of help. One 228 00:14:06,297 --> 00:14:10,577 Speaker 1: would be in things like spare parts or food. This 229 00:14:10,697 --> 00:14:14,497 Speaker 1: is to keep the Russian equipment rolling but not necessarily 230 00:14:14,897 --> 00:14:19,457 Speaker 1: killing people per se. The second would be actual munitions, bombs, rockets. 231 00:14:19,737 --> 00:14:23,097 Speaker 1: A lot of Chinese equipment either is borrowed from or 232 00:14:23,217 --> 00:14:26,177 Speaker 1: based off of Russian stuff, and then third would be 233 00:14:26,257 --> 00:14:28,817 Speaker 1: actual military equipment. That's the kind of thing that would 234 00:14:28,817 --> 00:14:31,457 Speaker 1: be very hard to deny the first two. The Chinese 235 00:14:31,457 --> 00:14:36,337 Speaker 1: could say, we're providing broad sets of supplies, we're not 236 00:14:37,217 --> 00:14:41,657 Speaker 1: proved that it's US. Chinese tanks showing up in Ukraine 237 00:14:41,657 --> 00:14:45,777 Speaker 1: would be pretty clear. From the beginning of the sanctions 238 00:14:46,657 --> 00:14:51,337 Speaker 1: implementation here, there have been concerns that China will just 239 00:14:51,417 --> 00:14:54,057 Speaker 1: become the outlet, for example, for Russian oil, even if 240 00:14:54,097 --> 00:14:57,457 Speaker 1: we go after full more fully the Russian energy sector. 241 00:14:57,697 --> 00:15:00,737 Speaker 1: I mean, to what extent is that reality and how 242 00:15:00,817 --> 00:15:05,217 Speaker 1: much can China actually absorb in terms of the economic 243 00:15:05,297 --> 00:15:08,497 Speaker 1: losses that Russia or I should say, offset the economic 244 00:15:08,897 --> 00:15:11,537 Speaker 1: losses that RUSSI she would be incurring as a result 245 00:15:11,577 --> 00:15:17,617 Speaker 1: of these ongoing sanctions. China's the world's largest importer of hydrocarbons, 246 00:15:17,697 --> 00:15:21,257 Speaker 1: so and since oil is fungible, certainly they could import 247 00:15:21,377 --> 00:15:25,777 Speaker 1: Russian oil. They've already built some pipelines, they are building 248 00:15:25,777 --> 00:15:29,537 Speaker 1: out new pipelines, and again this all predates the war 249 00:15:29,577 --> 00:15:33,297 Speaker 1: in Ukraine. So absolutely we should expect that the Chinese, 250 00:15:33,617 --> 00:15:36,577 Speaker 1: simply to keep their own lights going, are going to 251 00:15:36,617 --> 00:15:40,897 Speaker 1: do that. Let's also remember though, that this administration, apparently, 252 00:15:41,017 --> 00:15:46,097 Speaker 1: according to Jean's France Press, has issued a written guarantee 253 00:15:46,177 --> 00:15:49,217 Speaker 1: to the Russians allowing them to deal with the Iranians 254 00:15:49,217 --> 00:15:51,417 Speaker 1: on oil, and because oil is fungible, it's going to 255 00:15:51,417 --> 00:15:53,577 Speaker 1: be a really interesting question how we're going to differentiate 256 00:15:53,617 --> 00:15:58,297 Speaker 1: Iranian from Russian oil under the revised JCPOA. The other 257 00:15:58,337 --> 00:16:01,697 Speaker 1: thing here is that the Chinese have apparently agreed in 258 00:16:01,737 --> 00:16:07,097 Speaker 1: some cases to basically allowed trade to go on even 259 00:16:07,137 --> 00:16:09,657 Speaker 1: without letters of credit. And that's because of the financial 260 00:16:09,657 --> 00:16:12,737 Speaker 1: sanctions being placed on the Russians. So there's a whole 261 00:16:12,737 --> 00:16:15,617 Speaker 1: lot of trust me here going on. But the Chinese 262 00:16:15,657 --> 00:16:18,217 Speaker 1: do seem to be trustworthy in this regard, at least 263 00:16:18,217 --> 00:16:24,537 Speaker 1: with the Russian partners. Jensaki yesterday was speaking to reporters 264 00:16:24,417 --> 00:16:27,897 Speaker 1: as she often does, and the issue of how we 265 00:16:27,897 --> 00:16:31,977 Speaker 1: could try to leverage our request, shall we say, with 266 00:16:32,137 --> 00:16:35,217 Speaker 1: China VSA V the situation Ukraine. I wanted to play 267 00:16:35,257 --> 00:16:36,897 Speaker 1: that exchange for you and have you react to it. 268 00:16:38,457 --> 00:16:44,057 Speaker 1: What are the consequences for China if they do aid Russia. Well, 269 00:16:44,097 --> 00:16:46,657 Speaker 1: I'm not going to get into specific consequences. I think 270 00:16:46,737 --> 00:16:48,937 Speaker 1: what we have conveyed in what was conveyed by our 271 00:16:49,017 --> 00:16:52,657 Speaker 1: National Security advisor in this meeting is that should they 272 00:16:52,697 --> 00:16:57,177 Speaker 1: provide military or other assistance that of course violates sanctions 273 00:16:58,337 --> 00:17:02,737 Speaker 1: or supports the war effort, that there will be significant consequences. 274 00:17:02,737 --> 00:17:05,097 Speaker 1: But in terms of what the specifics look like, we 275 00:17:05,137 --> 00:17:08,137 Speaker 1: would coordinate with our partners and allies to make that determination. 276 00:17:08,457 --> 00:17:12,497 Speaker 1: But Jake Sullivan certain communicated that there would be consequences. Yes, 277 00:17:12,497 --> 00:17:14,777 Speaker 1: as we have also said publicly a number of times. 278 00:17:15,177 --> 00:17:17,337 Speaker 1: So Dean, you've already said, it doesn't look like so 279 00:17:17,377 --> 00:17:20,177 Speaker 1: far China has given any real military assistance, and it 280 00:17:20,257 --> 00:17:24,377 Speaker 1: may not do so. But just for the purpose of 281 00:17:24,417 --> 00:17:28,017 Speaker 1: discussion here, what would we do? I mean, is it realistic? 282 00:17:28,017 --> 00:17:29,977 Speaker 1: I think the Biden administration might even try to take 283 00:17:30,057 --> 00:17:34,257 Speaker 1: on sanctions against China for violations of even let's say 284 00:17:34,257 --> 00:17:40,017 Speaker 1: economic sanctions against Russia. Well, the track record of Chinese 285 00:17:40,057 --> 00:17:43,577 Speaker 1: compliance with sanctions on North Korea should make us all 286 00:17:43,657 --> 00:17:49,377 Speaker 1: very pessimist. China negotiates down, waters down those sanctions, says okay, 287 00:17:49,417 --> 00:17:51,697 Speaker 1: now we'll abide by those and then usually three you 288 00:17:51,777 --> 00:17:53,937 Speaker 1: or six months later, it turns out that they're cheating 289 00:17:53,977 --> 00:17:56,777 Speaker 1: on those sanctions and supplying North Korea and North Korea 290 00:17:56,857 --> 00:18:00,017 Speaker 1: is a far smaller player, far more vulnerable player. The 291 00:18:00,377 --> 00:18:03,617 Speaker 1: problem here is how do you sanction the number two 292 00:18:03,657 --> 00:18:06,617 Speaker 1: economy in the world, And do you think our allies 293 00:18:06,657 --> 00:18:11,017 Speaker 1: are also going to be supportive of this? So far 294 00:18:11,897 --> 00:18:15,857 Speaker 1: it took an invasion to get Germany, for example, to 295 00:18:15,897 --> 00:18:20,337 Speaker 1: finally cut Nordstream too. You're talking tens of thousands of 296 00:18:20,537 --> 00:18:25,297 Speaker 1: jobs for Volkswagen. You're talking about thousands of jobs across 297 00:18:25,377 --> 00:18:29,017 Speaker 1: Europe the tie back to China. Are they going to 298 00:18:29,017 --> 00:18:34,417 Speaker 1: be willing in a turbulent global economy to sanction China, 299 00:18:34,577 --> 00:18:39,257 Speaker 1: especially if it's over economic relations with Russia and not 300 00:18:39,417 --> 00:18:43,417 Speaker 1: military equipment? What do you think? I mean? Seems unlikely 301 00:18:43,417 --> 00:18:45,577 Speaker 1: to me. First of all. I mean my belief is 302 00:18:45,617 --> 00:18:47,897 Speaker 1: that there are sanctions against Russia. As soon as the 303 00:18:47,897 --> 00:18:50,617 Speaker 1: conflict ends and there's a settlement, those will pretty rapidly 304 00:18:50,657 --> 00:18:52,857 Speaker 1: go away. So I don't if I don't think we 305 00:18:52,897 --> 00:18:55,777 Speaker 1: have the diplomatic wherewithal to continue that against Russia for 306 00:18:55,937 --> 00:18:59,297 Speaker 1: very long beyond the actual conflict, going after China with 307 00:18:59,377 --> 00:19:02,177 Speaker 1: sanctions to Dean, feels like this administration is not going 308 00:19:02,217 --> 00:19:04,857 Speaker 1: to bite that one off. I think it's going to 309 00:19:04,857 --> 00:19:07,097 Speaker 1: be an incredibly difficult cell. I think it's going to 310 00:19:07,097 --> 00:19:10,257 Speaker 1: be a difficult cell here in the United States. I mean, McDonald's, 311 00:19:10,297 --> 00:19:13,857 Speaker 1: Coca Cola, all of these companies have been willing to 312 00:19:13,937 --> 00:19:17,937 Speaker 1: leave Russia. But you know, we've seen the NBA, Nike, 313 00:19:18,817 --> 00:19:23,537 Speaker 1: even Intel basically saying we're staying in China despite massive 314 00:19:23,617 --> 00:19:27,177 Speaker 1: human rights abuses and the like. To expect them to 315 00:19:27,537 --> 00:19:33,617 Speaker 1: leave China because China is tied to Russia. Especially you know, 316 00:19:33,937 --> 00:19:35,937 Speaker 1: if and when the war ends, and hopefully that's sooner 317 00:19:36,017 --> 00:19:39,297 Speaker 1: rather than later. As you said, if the sanctions on 318 00:19:39,377 --> 00:19:42,417 Speaker 1: Russia's start coming off, what's going to be the appeal 319 00:19:42,457 --> 00:19:46,097 Speaker 1: for keeping sanctions in China. Yeah, it feels like that's 320 00:19:46,097 --> 00:19:47,977 Speaker 1: not going to happen, but we'll have to see Dan. 321 00:19:48,017 --> 00:19:50,817 Speaker 1: Always good to see you, Thanks for the expertise. Thank 322 00:19:50,817 --> 00:19:54,937 Speaker 1: you for having me. An elementary school in San Antonio, 323 00:19:55,057 --> 00:19:57,337 Speaker 1: Texas is coming under fire after teachers in that school 324 00:19:57,377 --> 00:20:00,297 Speaker 1: segregated ten year old students in order to teach about 325 00:20:00,297 --> 00:20:03,177 Speaker 1: anti racism. We'll look at the details on that story 326 00:20:03,217 --> 00:20:05,617 Speaker 1: with the founder of the seventeen seventy six Project Pack, 327 00:20:05,777 --> 00:20:14,617 Speaker 1: Ryan or Dusky, when we come back. A public school 328 00:20:14,617 --> 00:20:17,137 Speaker 1: in San Antonio, Texas is under Fire Today for a 329 00:20:17,257 --> 00:20:21,097 Speaker 1: sick anti racism lesson that segregated ten year olds by 330 00:20:21,257 --> 00:20:23,777 Speaker 1: hair color cord to the parents of one student at 331 00:20:23,817 --> 00:20:27,097 Speaker 1: Leon Springs Elementary, teachers told students that the children in 332 00:20:27,137 --> 00:20:30,217 Speaker 1: the fair haired group were not as intelligent. That group 333 00:20:30,297 --> 00:20:32,977 Speaker 1: was purposely given a game with pieces missing so they 334 00:20:33,017 --> 00:20:35,897 Speaker 1: could not play. Later they were made to clean up 335 00:20:35,937 --> 00:20:39,617 Speaker 1: after the other children. Lesson also included a screening of 336 00:20:39,657 --> 00:20:42,897 Speaker 1: the Spike Lee documentary Four Little Girls, about the nineteen 337 00:20:42,937 --> 00:20:47,537 Speaker 1: sixty three Alabama church bombing. The documentary reportedly includes graphic 338 00:20:47,657 --> 00:20:51,457 Speaker 1: autopsy photos of the dead children. This is what teachers 339 00:20:51,817 --> 00:20:54,377 Speaker 1: are in this one school, at least showing ten year olds. 340 00:20:55,297 --> 00:20:57,017 Speaker 1: They also tell you some of there's no critical race 341 00:20:57,057 --> 00:20:58,897 Speaker 1: theory in public schools anywhere in America. That's what the 342 00:20:58,937 --> 00:21:01,577 Speaker 1: left says. But we know that's not true. So what's 343 00:21:01,577 --> 00:21:03,897 Speaker 1: going on here? Jordiman I was the author of They're 344 00:21:03,897 --> 00:21:07,377 Speaker 1: Not Listening and founder of the seventeen seventy six Project Pack. 345 00:21:07,457 --> 00:21:11,177 Speaker 1: Ryan Grdusky, Ryan, how you doing? Thanks for having me, Buck. 346 00:21:12,457 --> 00:21:15,297 Speaker 1: This is you know, there's these cases that come up. 347 00:21:15,297 --> 00:21:18,697 Speaker 1: They keep saying when we talk about critical race theory 348 00:21:18,777 --> 00:21:22,377 Speaker 1: in schools and what can and cannot be taught. They say, 349 00:21:22,377 --> 00:21:23,937 Speaker 1: there is no critical race theory, as you well know. 350 00:21:24,057 --> 00:21:25,897 Speaker 1: I know you do a lot of work on this issue, Ryan, 351 00:21:26,257 --> 00:21:29,617 Speaker 1: But then an incident like this comes up. How much 352 00:21:29,617 --> 00:21:31,577 Speaker 1: of this kind of stuff is actually going on across 353 00:21:31,617 --> 00:21:33,377 Speaker 1: the country. I mean, people hear this one. They say, 354 00:21:33,497 --> 00:21:36,057 Speaker 1: this is just this is like lunacy that they're inflicting 355 00:21:36,137 --> 00:21:39,137 Speaker 1: upon children. So what I like to say is a 356 00:21:39,217 --> 00:21:41,497 Speaker 1: critical race theory is not being taught in school, is 357 00:21:41,537 --> 00:21:44,377 Speaker 1: being practiced in school, which is a second separate thing. 358 00:21:44,777 --> 00:21:47,217 Speaker 1: This is happening all over the entire country, I mean, 359 00:21:47,297 --> 00:21:51,377 Speaker 1: and it's most pronounced oftentimes in red counties and red 360 00:21:51,457 --> 00:21:55,097 Speaker 1: states and red districts. I was just in Collin County, Texas, 361 00:21:55,257 --> 00:22:00,297 Speaker 1: where the kids were told on plus A biases, where 362 00:22:00,337 --> 00:22:03,457 Speaker 1: they are told what white people think is things like 363 00:22:03,817 --> 00:22:07,257 Speaker 1: Mexicans love tacos, and Asians are bad drivers and Blacks 364 00:22:07,297 --> 00:22:11,217 Speaker 1: are lazy. I was at another school district from Fredericksburg, Maryland, 365 00:22:11,257 --> 00:22:14,857 Speaker 1: a red district in a blue state, and the white 366 00:22:14,897 --> 00:22:17,097 Speaker 1: kids had to white third grades had to walk up 367 00:22:17,137 --> 00:22:22,217 Speaker 1: to all the black third graders and apologize. In Atlanta, Georgia, 368 00:22:22,497 --> 00:22:25,577 Speaker 1: a black mother asked her the black principal to put 369 00:22:25,577 --> 00:22:28,697 Speaker 1: her black child in a specific classroom, and the black 370 00:22:28,697 --> 00:22:31,057 Speaker 1: principle and said, no, sorry, this is a classroom for 371 00:22:31,217 --> 00:22:34,257 Speaker 1: only white students because we want black kids only with 372 00:22:34,337 --> 00:22:39,337 Speaker 1: other blacks to completely immerse themselves in their blackness. This 373 00:22:39,417 --> 00:22:42,457 Speaker 1: is happening all over and the redness of red states, 374 00:22:42,457 --> 00:22:45,177 Speaker 1: in the bluest of blue states. It is, and there's 375 00:22:45,257 --> 00:22:47,617 Speaker 1: no billion silver bullet for it. It's going to take 376 00:22:47,617 --> 00:22:51,377 Speaker 1: a lot of work to undo all this there. In 377 00:22:51,377 --> 00:22:53,857 Speaker 1: that case, I started out with here in the segment 378 00:22:54,057 --> 00:22:56,897 Speaker 1: Ryan where they were segregating kids by hair color, and 379 00:22:56,937 --> 00:22:58,537 Speaker 1: some of them had to clean up after the other kids, 380 00:22:58,537 --> 00:23:02,697 Speaker 1: and we're suffering this mistreat mistreatment. The school district statement 381 00:23:02,737 --> 00:23:05,857 Speaker 1: on the fifth grade lesson said the following the activity 382 00:23:05,857 --> 00:23:07,737 Speaker 1: and video and question were part of a larger fifth 383 00:23:07,777 --> 00:23:11,657 Speaker 1: grade project based lesson around the iniquity of segregation. While 384 00:23:11,657 --> 00:23:15,257 Speaker 1: the campus did receive positive feedback from several parents, district 385 00:23:15,297 --> 00:23:18,417 Speaker 1: and campus administration recognize the parents concerns and agree the 386 00:23:18,417 --> 00:23:21,417 Speaker 1: activity and video are not age appropriate and will not 387 00:23:21,497 --> 00:23:25,417 Speaker 1: be used again. So they're they're kind of saying, you know, 388 00:23:26,737 --> 00:23:28,337 Speaker 1: all right, maybe this when we in a little far, 389 00:23:28,417 --> 00:23:30,257 Speaker 1: but overall we thought it was pretty good lesson. I mean, 390 00:23:30,257 --> 00:23:34,417 Speaker 1: it's remarkable this school district, so I I mean, I'm 391 00:23:34,457 --> 00:23:36,737 Speaker 1: not surprised that they're continuing this, but this is going 392 00:23:36,857 --> 00:23:39,137 Speaker 1: for actually a very very very long time where they 393 00:23:39,177 --> 00:23:41,377 Speaker 1: where they have when they have this of this program. 394 00:23:41,777 --> 00:23:44,137 Speaker 1: But this is the least of it. I mean, privilege 395 00:23:44,177 --> 00:23:47,417 Speaker 1: walks are happening in every stage, like I said, and 396 00:23:47,457 --> 00:23:50,057 Speaker 1: it's how they are incorporating our critical race theory into 397 00:23:50,097 --> 00:23:52,937 Speaker 1: the hard sciences, into science, into math class and all 398 00:23:52,937 --> 00:23:55,857 Speaker 1: the rest of it. Um it's not it's not appropriate 399 00:23:55,857 --> 00:23:59,217 Speaker 1: for any age when you when we do that. By 400 00:23:59,217 --> 00:24:02,057 Speaker 1: the way, there's also this speaking of the teaching in 401 00:24:02,177 --> 00:24:05,697 Speaker 1: school situation and possible efforts you mentioned, it's going to 402 00:24:05,737 --> 00:24:07,737 Speaker 1: take a lot of time. There's no silver bullet to 403 00:24:08,817 --> 00:24:12,657 Speaker 1: undo some of the left wing kind of Marxist indoctrination 404 00:24:12,697 --> 00:24:17,257 Speaker 1: that's happening of little kids. Here you have the Don't 405 00:24:17,337 --> 00:24:20,497 Speaker 1: Say Gay Bill and Florida getting a lot of attention. 406 00:24:20,577 --> 00:24:22,817 Speaker 1: It's really the parental Rights bill, but the media just 407 00:24:22,857 --> 00:24:25,257 Speaker 1: dubbed it that don't say gay bill because that was 408 00:24:25,297 --> 00:24:28,617 Speaker 1: the that was the talking point, really the line of 409 00:24:28,617 --> 00:24:33,537 Speaker 1: attack used by LGBTQ activists against it Rhnda santists Ryan 410 00:24:33,617 --> 00:24:36,377 Speaker 1: not standing around for this one quietly. Here's how he 411 00:24:36,537 --> 00:24:41,657 Speaker 1: responded to a reporter asking about this rights and education. 412 00:24:41,977 --> 00:24:43,697 Speaker 1: What critics are called the don't say gay bill is 413 00:24:43,697 --> 00:24:47,057 Speaker 1: on incentive? Does it say that in the bill? Does 414 00:24:47,057 --> 00:24:49,457 Speaker 1: it say that in the bill? I'm asking I'm asking 415 00:24:49,497 --> 00:24:51,257 Speaker 1: you to tell me what's in the bill because you 416 00:24:51,297 --> 00:24:55,017 Speaker 1: are pushing false narratives. It doesn't matter what critics say. 417 00:24:54,657 --> 00:24:58,417 Speaker 1: It advanced plast instruction on sexual identity and gender orientation 418 00:24:58,697 --> 00:25:03,897 Speaker 1: four who for grades pre K through three, So five 419 00:25:03,977 --> 00:25:07,417 Speaker 1: year old, six year old, seven year olds, and the 420 00:25:07,537 --> 00:25:10,537 Speaker 1: idea that you wouldn't be honest about that and tell 421 00:25:10,617 --> 00:25:13,817 Speaker 1: people what it actually says. It's why people don't trust 422 00:25:13,897 --> 00:25:17,137 Speaker 1: people like you, because you peddle false narratives, and so 423 00:25:17,217 --> 00:25:23,257 Speaker 1: we disabused you. If goes there, and we're going to 424 00:25:23,337 --> 00:25:25,657 Speaker 1: make sure that parents are able to send their kid 425 00:25:25,697 --> 00:25:29,537 Speaker 1: to kindergarten without having some of this stuff injected into 426 00:25:29,577 --> 00:25:32,617 Speaker 1: their school curriculum. Now put aside for a moment, I mean, 427 00:25:32,617 --> 00:25:34,577 Speaker 1: I think Roda Santis is great in the way that 428 00:25:34,617 --> 00:25:38,097 Speaker 1: he deals with the fake news, but on the issue 429 00:25:38,337 --> 00:25:42,017 Speaker 1: of this bill, Ryan, my understanding is that when they've 430 00:25:42,017 --> 00:25:43,737 Speaker 1: actually started to see some polling on this now that 431 00:25:43,777 --> 00:25:46,377 Speaker 1: people know what's in it and what's not a pretty 432 00:25:46,377 --> 00:25:48,337 Speaker 1: solid majority of the American people are like, No, you 433 00:25:48,337 --> 00:25:50,417 Speaker 1: shouldn't be teaching five, six and seven year olds this 434 00:25:50,417 --> 00:25:53,457 Speaker 1: stuff in public school curriculum. What's what's the truth of it? 435 00:25:54,737 --> 00:25:57,377 Speaker 1: Bowling is actually really a mixed on the issue. I've 436 00:25:57,417 --> 00:26:00,577 Speaker 1: seen polls that have it overwhelmingly opposed this film and 437 00:26:00,737 --> 00:26:03,217 Speaker 1: bolsting overwhelmingly support of the bill. I think you're just 438 00:26:03,297 --> 00:26:05,097 Speaker 1: going to take time to actually need to let out, 439 00:26:05,097 --> 00:26:08,137 Speaker 1: and once they'll realize what's actually in the bill, they 440 00:26:08,137 --> 00:26:11,017 Speaker 1: won't be so opposed to it. I think that the 441 00:26:11,057 --> 00:26:13,217 Speaker 1: most important thing that people could learn from de Sands 442 00:26:13,417 --> 00:26:17,097 Speaker 1: is that you have to fight for public education. You know, 443 00:26:17,177 --> 00:26:19,897 Speaker 1: for decades Republicans have sat there and said we should 444 00:26:19,937 --> 00:26:22,257 Speaker 1: just try as hard as becounting kids out of public 445 00:26:22,377 --> 00:26:25,737 Speaker 1: education to private education. That is not the answer. Private 446 00:26:25,777 --> 00:26:29,257 Speaker 1: schools in many cases are actually far more awoke farmer 447 00:26:29,297 --> 00:26:32,457 Speaker 1: or liberal and farmer progressive with no government oversight and 448 00:26:32,537 --> 00:26:36,417 Speaker 1: little parental involvement as possible. So I'd say kudos to him, 449 00:26:36,417 --> 00:26:40,377 Speaker 1: and kudos to anyone trying actually work to reform public education, 450 00:26:40,417 --> 00:26:42,057 Speaker 1: because that's where the fight is, that's where eighty five 451 00:26:42,057 --> 00:26:45,257 Speaker 1: percent American children go to is public education? Should there 452 00:26:45,297 --> 00:26:48,737 Speaker 1: be bills past in as many states as there are 453 00:26:48,777 --> 00:26:51,977 Speaker 1: Republican majority legislatures leading to this midterm election that forced 454 00:26:52,057 --> 00:26:55,937 Speaker 1: Democrat to take positions on things like instruction in jenuor 455 00:26:56,017 --> 00:26:58,177 Speaker 1: identity for five, six and seven year olds that take 456 00:26:58,217 --> 00:27:01,417 Speaker 1: them to force them to take a position on whether 457 00:27:01,457 --> 00:27:05,617 Speaker 1: there can be racial indoctrination training for you know, third graders, 458 00:27:05,697 --> 00:27:07,177 Speaker 1: or whatever the case may be. Do you think that 459 00:27:07,177 --> 00:27:10,577 Speaker 1: that's smart politics? I think the smart right now to 460 00:27:10,577 --> 00:27:13,137 Speaker 1: be the school transparency bills that are being pushed in 461 00:27:13,137 --> 00:27:16,497 Speaker 1: every state. So basically teachers would have to put online 462 00:27:16,537 --> 00:27:20,817 Speaker 1: their entire curriculum, public and private school teachers. That's really 463 00:27:21,177 --> 00:27:23,777 Speaker 1: I think the biggest advancement parents could get. The reason 464 00:27:23,897 --> 00:27:27,577 Speaker 1: parents became active in the education fighting against the Virginia 465 00:27:27,617 --> 00:27:30,337 Speaker 1: election in twenty twenty one was because their kids were 466 00:27:30,337 --> 00:27:32,377 Speaker 1: at home, They were learning at home, and they were 467 00:27:32,857 --> 00:27:35,897 Speaker 1: parents got to see very vividly what their kids were learning, 468 00:27:35,897 --> 00:27:39,497 Speaker 1: and they were horrified. I think that that transparency needs 469 00:27:39,537 --> 00:27:42,697 Speaker 1: to be available to all parents, public and private school, 470 00:27:42,857 --> 00:27:46,057 Speaker 1: and they would be ridiculous not to accept that. I 471 00:27:46,097 --> 00:27:48,097 Speaker 1: think that would be a line that everyone would sit 472 00:27:48,137 --> 00:27:51,457 Speaker 1: there and support overwhelmingly, and that would be a very 473 00:27:51,497 --> 00:27:55,857 Speaker 1: tough fight for Democrats. Sit they're back away from Ryan Gerdusky. 474 00:27:56,017 --> 00:27:58,617 Speaker 1: Good to see my friend, Thanks so much, Thank you 475 00:28:00,497 --> 00:28:03,777 Speaker 1: coming up, Kyrie Irving. Not allowed to play basketball in 476 00:28:03,937 --> 00:28:06,097 Speaker 1: New York City but able to be in the stands 477 00:28:06,137 --> 00:28:08,897 Speaker 1: season NBA Superstar people are paying attention to this. Doesn't 478 00:28:08,897 --> 00:28:11,777 Speaker 1: seem like the COVID rule make any sense. We'll get 479 00:28:11,817 --> 00:28:14,057 Speaker 1: into that with Morgan Zeggers in a moment. You know, 480 00:28:14,137 --> 00:28:16,857 Speaker 1: hackers capitalize on uncertainty, and there's a lot of that 481 00:28:16,897 --> 00:28:19,137 Speaker 1: in the world right now, which is why you've got 482 00:28:19,137 --> 00:28:21,177 Speaker 1: to be on the lookout for these scams. One of 483 00:28:21,217 --> 00:28:23,497 Speaker 1: the ones it's really hard to detect and harder to 484 00:28:23,497 --> 00:28:26,977 Speaker 1: stop is home title fraud. Home tuittle fraud happens when 485 00:28:27,017 --> 00:28:29,097 Speaker 1: a hacker finds the title to your home online. Then 486 00:28:29,137 --> 00:28:32,217 Speaker 1: he forges your signature and removes you from your home's title. 487 00:28:32,377 --> 00:28:33,897 Speaker 1: We'll off and take out loans on your home and 488 00:28:33,977 --> 00:28:36,177 Speaker 1: leave you in debt. What makes home title frauds so 489 00:28:36,257 --> 00:28:38,297 Speaker 1: devastating is you won't know you've been hacked, usually until 490 00:28:38,337 --> 00:28:40,017 Speaker 1: it's too late.

The 500 00:29:13,137 --> 00:29:17,097 Speaker 1: NBA find the Brooklyn Nets fifty thousand dollars for allowing 501 00:29:17,137 --> 00:29:20,577 Speaker 1: basketball star Kyrie Irving to join the team in the 502 00:29:20,737 --> 00:29:24,017 Speaker 1: locker room after this weekend's game in violation of the 503 00:29:24,057 --> 00:29:29,137 Speaker 1: league's COVID nineteen protocols Irving, who is unvaccinated, is not 504 00:29:29,177 --> 00:29:31,497 Speaker 1: allowed to join the team for home games in Brooklyn 505 00:29:31,777 --> 00:29:35,497 Speaker 1: because of New York's private sector vaccine mandate, but local 506 00:29:35,537 --> 00:29:38,937 Speaker 1: mandates now allow him to enter the Barkley Center as 507 00:29:38,977 --> 00:29:42,097 Speaker 1: a spectator, but not as an employee on the court. 508 00:29:42,817 --> 00:29:46,097 Speaker 1: Because this is like science or something, right, Here's what 509 00:29:46,177 --> 00:29:48,417 Speaker 1: New York Mayor Eric Adams had to say about the 510 00:29:48,417 --> 00:29:59,297 Speaker 1: situation when asked, and you're right, you're right, and you're right. 511 00:30:01,337 --> 00:30:09,377 Speaker 1: Thank you. Listen, you're right. Kyrie can play tomorrow. Get vaccinated. Yeah, 512 00:30:09,457 --> 00:30:11,737 Speaker 1: and so now it's just they make people get vaccinated 513 00:30:11,777 --> 00:30:14,337 Speaker 1: just to make them get vaccinated apparently. Yeah, that makes 514 00:30:14,337 --> 00:30:16,577 Speaker 1: a lot of sense here with the reaction. First TV 515 00:30:16,657 --> 00:30:20,697 Speaker 1: contributor and founder of Young Americans Against Socialism, Morgan Zegers Morgan, 516 00:30:20,777 --> 00:30:24,817 Speaker 1: what's up, hi, Buck? I mean, I'm frustrated by this video, 517 00:30:24,857 --> 00:30:27,017 Speaker 1: but other than that, I'm doing great. Thanks for having 518 00:30:27,057 --> 00:30:29,177 Speaker 1: me so far. The mayor of New York City is 519 00:30:29,177 --> 00:30:32,177 Speaker 1: an absolute abject failure. But that's a whole other thing. 520 00:30:32,857 --> 00:30:34,937 Speaker 1: Let's I know it's early, they'll say, but so far 521 00:30:35,017 --> 00:30:38,057 Speaker 1: it's not good. Let's look out at the rules here. So, 522 00:30:38,177 --> 00:30:42,057 Speaker 1: Kyrie Irving, this has been explained to me by my 523 00:30:42,497 --> 00:30:46,657 Speaker 1: very sports knowledgeable co host on Radio, Clay Travis. Kyrie 524 00:30:46,657 --> 00:30:51,297 Speaker 1: Irving Morgan cannot play because he is a New York 525 00:30:52,137 --> 00:30:55,857 Speaker 1: located basketball player. He can, though, be in the front 526 00:30:55,937 --> 00:31:00,777 Speaker 1: row in the stadium or whatever the the arena as 527 00:31:00,857 --> 00:31:04,337 Speaker 1: a as a viewer of the game. He's not allowed 528 00:31:04,337 --> 00:31:06,737 Speaker 1: to be in the locker room though. That's not okay. 529 00:31:06,737 --> 00:31:10,737 Speaker 1: But meanwhile, other players who are on vaccinated from other 530 00:31:10,817 --> 00:31:14,177 Speaker 1: states are in fact, under New York rules allowed to 531 00:31:14,377 --> 00:31:17,217 Speaker 1: play on the floor, are allowed to be in the 532 00:31:17,257 --> 00:31:20,337 Speaker 1: basketball game and also be in the locker rooms. Does 533 00:31:20,377 --> 00:31:23,257 Speaker 1: the virus differentiate? I'm just curious, how does this work? 534 00:31:24,497 --> 00:31:27,657 Speaker 1: Oh Buck, It's just another anti science take by the left. 535 00:31:27,697 --> 00:31:32,297 Speaker 1: I mean, they're anti science on abortion, on gender, on transgenderism, 536 00:31:32,617 --> 00:31:38,617 Speaker 1: and masculinity versus femininity. They're anti science with all of COVID, 537 00:31:38,657 --> 00:31:40,657 Speaker 1: and they're anti science with climate change, and so this 538 00:31:40,737 --> 00:31:42,897 Speaker 1: is really just a repeated pattern. Now. I find it 539 00:31:43,097 --> 00:31:45,497 Speaker 1: fascinating to me because I don't really watch many sports, 540 00:31:45,497 --> 00:31:48,057 Speaker 1: but look at this, this issue and all of COVID 541 00:31:48,097 --> 00:31:51,257 Speaker 1: has made this little political nerd and history nerd interested 542 00:31:51,297 --> 00:31:52,897 Speaker 1: in sports all of a sudden, because I have to 543 00:31:52,977 --> 00:31:55,137 Speaker 1: learn all about these athletes and who's standing up and 544 00:31:55,137 --> 00:31:57,577 Speaker 1: what these regulations are for the games. And so I'm 545 00:31:57,577 --> 00:32:00,457 Speaker 1: really hoping that in a reverse sense, this is also 546 00:32:00,537 --> 00:32:02,657 Speaker 1: happening where all these people that love sports but maybe 547 00:32:02,657 --> 00:32:04,937 Speaker 1: aren't paying attention to politics, and I've never really cared 548 00:32:04,937 --> 00:32:07,257 Speaker 1: about this stuff before. I hope that it's making them 549 00:32:07,297 --> 00:32:10,777 Speaker 1: more interested in policy and understanding from it because they're 550 00:32:10,777 --> 00:32:13,057 Speaker 1: looking at these people, They're looking at these games, and 551 00:32:13,097 --> 00:32:15,017 Speaker 1: it's not making sense to them. So I hope that 552 00:32:15,057 --> 00:32:16,977 Speaker 1: this is waking up a lot of those a political 553 00:32:17,017 --> 00:32:20,297 Speaker 1: people that are starting to realize how ridiculous these mandates 554 00:32:20,337 --> 00:32:25,937 Speaker 1: and in general government overregulation, in effectiveness and tyranny it 555 00:32:25,977 --> 00:32:28,737 Speaker 1: can really be. So I'm hopeful about this situation. It's 556 00:32:28,777 --> 00:32:31,177 Speaker 1: just got to keep happening for people to finally learn 557 00:32:31,177 --> 00:32:35,577 Speaker 1: their lesson. Netstar Kevin Durant put out a statement criticizing 558 00:32:35,657 --> 00:32:37,857 Speaker 1: the Mayor of New York City on this one. He said, 559 00:32:38,017 --> 00:32:41,417 Speaker 1: are rather wrote? Are they fearing our safety? I don't 560 00:32:41,457 --> 00:32:45,417 Speaker 1: get it. We're all confused. Everybody in the world's confused 561 00:32:45,417 --> 00:32:47,577 Speaker 1: at this point. Early on in the season, people didn't 562 00:32:47,617 --> 00:32:50,097 Speaker 1: understand what was going on, But now it just looks stupid. 563 00:32:50,657 --> 00:32:54,537 Speaker 1: It's ridiculous. It feels like at this point somebody's trying 564 00:32:54,537 --> 00:32:56,897 Speaker 1: to make a statement or a point to flex their authority. 565 00:32:57,657 --> 00:32:59,937 Speaker 1: Everybody out here is looking for attention. That's what I 566 00:32:59,937 --> 00:33:02,257 Speaker 1: feel the mayor wants right now with some attention. But 567 00:33:02,417 --> 00:33:05,337 Speaker 1: he'll figure it out soon, he better. What do you 568 00:33:05,377 --> 00:33:10,217 Speaker 1: think yeah, it's another situation. I was very excited to 569 00:33:10,257 --> 00:33:12,657 Speaker 1: see this because, like I said, I don't know sports. 570 00:33:12,697 --> 00:33:14,777 Speaker 1: I didn't know about this man either, but I learned 571 00:33:14,817 --> 00:33:16,697 Speaker 1: all about him after I saw him speaking out. So 572 00:33:16,737 --> 00:33:19,137 Speaker 1: we're seeing this merge of worlds. But I would also 573 00:33:19,137 --> 00:33:21,337 Speaker 1: say it's really up to athletes like this and to 574 00:33:21,457 --> 00:33:25,617 Speaker 1: military members, because their profession is really all centered around 575 00:33:25,737 --> 00:33:28,577 Speaker 1: being in tiptop shape, making sure that your body is 576 00:33:28,617 --> 00:33:31,257 Speaker 1: taken care of, that you're living mentally and physically well 577 00:33:31,297 --> 00:33:33,217 Speaker 1: for yourself so that you can perform your job and 578 00:33:33,297 --> 00:33:35,977 Speaker 1: take care of yourself and your family. And now we're 579 00:33:36,017 --> 00:33:39,217 Speaker 1: telling them to take completely anti science takes that are 580 00:33:39,217 --> 00:33:42,417 Speaker 1: probably bad for their health and against the choice concept 581 00:33:42,417 --> 00:33:44,457 Speaker 1: that we live by here in Americas. So I really 582 00:33:44,497 --> 00:33:47,457 Speaker 1: respect athletes and military members speaking out about this. They're 583 00:33:47,497 --> 00:33:49,777 Speaker 1: the ones that we should be looking up to and 584 00:33:50,857 --> 00:33:54,297 Speaker 1: hearing their opinions on issues like this, for sure. So 585 00:33:54,457 --> 00:33:58,457 Speaker 1: I also found out today Morgan that the New York 586 00:33:58,657 --> 00:34:02,177 Speaker 1: Mets of the New York Yankees baseball players. I believe 587 00:34:02,297 --> 00:34:04,537 Speaker 1: one of these stars of the New York Yankees like 588 00:34:04,537 --> 00:34:07,497 Speaker 1: the primary the most. I don't follow baseball, but the 589 00:34:07,577 --> 00:34:10,417 Speaker 1: guy who's the most well known baseball player people think, 590 00:34:10,497 --> 00:34:14,177 Speaker 1: and it's not clear, but maybe based upon the public statements, unvaccinated, 591 00:34:14,777 --> 00:34:18,697 Speaker 1: they the baseball players in New York are not allowed 592 00:34:18,857 --> 00:34:22,417 Speaker 1: even though they are outside during the baseball game. They 593 00:34:22,417 --> 00:34:24,177 Speaker 1: are not allowed to play in the baseball game unless 594 00:34:24,177 --> 00:34:29,017 Speaker 1: they are vaccinated. But they could be in the stadium. Yeah, 595 00:34:29,257 --> 00:34:31,697 Speaker 1: I mean, I really hope that all the spectators out there, 596 00:34:31,697 --> 00:34:34,297 Speaker 1: all the kids, all the young people that maybe think 597 00:34:34,417 --> 00:34:37,897 Speaker 1: democratic socialism and all these policies pushed by the left 598 00:34:37,937 --> 00:34:40,537 Speaker 1: in a very nice and progressive way and all this fancy, 599 00:34:40,777 --> 00:34:43,297 Speaker 1: fruitful language out there starting to see the farce that 600 00:34:43,337 --> 00:34:47,017 Speaker 1: it really is. And it's cultural situations like sports that 601 00:34:47,057 --> 00:34:48,937 Speaker 1: are really going to help bridge the gap for people 602 00:34:48,937 --> 00:34:51,337 Speaker 1: and connect the dots of how insane this whole situation 603 00:34:51,377 --> 00:34:56,337 Speaker 1: has become. By the way, following the similar but slightly 604 00:34:56,537 --> 00:35:00,497 Speaker 1: different topic, following the recommendation of the CDC, the TSA 605 00:35:00,737 --> 00:35:03,617 Speaker 1: is going to extend its mass mandate for airplanes through 606 00:35:03,777 --> 00:35:05,897 Speaker 1: mid April. It's also for the airport, by the way, 607 00:35:05,937 --> 00:35:08,097 Speaker 1: And for I just was on an amtrack, Morgan, you 608 00:35:08,217 --> 00:35:10,937 Speaker 1: got a mask up on the amtrack. So the CDC 609 00:35:11,097 --> 00:35:13,657 Speaker 1: of course is just is an absurdity. It should be 610 00:35:13,777 --> 00:35:16,577 Speaker 1: torn down to the studs and something meaningful should be rebuilt, 611 00:35:16,737 --> 00:35:19,577 Speaker 1: worthwhile should be rebuilt in its place. But I wanted 612 00:35:19,617 --> 00:35:23,057 Speaker 1: you to hear Jensaki, chief pr Lady for the White House. 613 00:35:23,417 --> 00:35:26,897 Speaker 1: I wanted you to hear what she says about you know, yeah, 614 00:35:26,897 --> 00:35:29,057 Speaker 1: this makes sense. The only place in life you have 615 00:35:29,137 --> 00:35:32,137 Speaker 1: you mask is a plane because people travel or something. Listen, 616 00:35:32,417 --> 00:35:35,577 Speaker 1: I ask you about the transportation mask mandate. Sure Tsa 617 00:35:35,657 --> 00:35:38,097 Speaker 1: says it was based on a CDC recommendation of spring. 618 00:35:38,137 --> 00:35:41,177 Speaker 1: If you're a position to explain the rationale, science, the 619 00:35:41,177 --> 00:35:44,537 Speaker 1: logic behind continuing it in places where the community level 620 00:35:44,577 --> 00:35:48,537 Speaker 1: is low, well, I would really point at the CDC 621 00:35:48,777 --> 00:35:52,137 Speaker 1: to provide further detail. But I would note, as you know, 622 00:35:52,297 --> 00:35:55,297 Speaker 1: when you get in an airplane, you travel to different places. Right, 623 00:35:55,337 --> 00:35:57,737 Speaker 1: You're not just static in one place. Whether it's a 624 00:35:57,777 --> 00:35:59,697 Speaker 1: green zone or a yellow zone or a red zone, 625 00:35:59,737 --> 00:36:01,817 Speaker 1: it's unique. Right. If we're in Washington, d C. And 626 00:36:02,137 --> 00:36:04,177 Speaker 1: we're in a green zone or a yellow zone, you 627 00:36:04,177 --> 00:36:06,737 Speaker 1: can make a clear assessment. If you're moving from one 628 00:36:06,817 --> 00:36:09,017 Speaker 1: zone to another, and you're picking people up from one 629 00:36:09,137 --> 00:36:11,377 Speaker 1: zone to another, it's a little bit different, and that 630 00:36:11,457 --> 00:36:14,017 Speaker 1: requires some consultation, which is what they're going to endeavor 631 00:36:14,057 --> 00:36:16,737 Speaker 1: to do between now and April eighteen. And first of all, 632 00:36:16,777 --> 00:36:18,897 Speaker 1: no one has any idea what the color of their 633 00:36:19,017 --> 00:36:22,697 Speaker 1: zone is Anymorelready they just completely changed the formulation a 634 00:36:22,697 --> 00:36:24,377 Speaker 1: week or two ago as well. The whole thing is 635 00:36:24,417 --> 00:36:28,457 Speaker 1: so stupid it's mind blowing. Yeah, it's comical, but it's 636 00:36:28,457 --> 00:36:30,657 Speaker 1: also very concerning. You could look at it and say, 637 00:36:30,777 --> 00:36:33,097 Speaker 1: nobody gives a crap anymore. I mean, I live in 638 00:36:33,097 --> 00:36:35,617 Speaker 1: a free area, and so I don't even think about 639 00:36:35,617 --> 00:36:37,177 Speaker 1: mass I mean, when I have to fly, I'm like, wait, 640 00:36:37,297 --> 00:36:39,977 Speaker 1: people still do that, And so it's like a culture 641 00:36:39,977 --> 00:36:42,137 Speaker 1: shock almost to go to other places in the country, 642 00:36:42,217 --> 00:36:45,697 Speaker 1: especially Washington, DC. It shows how difference the people's mindset 643 00:36:45,777 --> 00:36:48,977 Speaker 1: is there, Jensuki and the administration and all the bureaucrats 644 00:36:49,017 --> 00:36:52,777 Speaker 1: that live there. But the concerning factor of this book 645 00:36:52,857 --> 00:36:56,417 Speaker 1: is that this is like USSR Soviet Union a level 646 00:36:56,577 --> 00:37:00,257 Speaker 1: propaganda coming out of Washington, d C. The United States 647 00:37:00,297 --> 00:37:05,457 Speaker 1: executive branches is pushing out stalinesque propaganda. And it's ironic 648 00:37:05,537 --> 00:37:07,737 Speaker 1: because when you don't connect the dots of the past 649 00:37:07,817 --> 00:37:10,457 Speaker 1: to the present to the future, you're unable to understand, 650 00:37:10,537 --> 00:37:13,097 Speaker 1: the propaganda that's coming out of Washington, DC today is 651 00:37:13,137 --> 00:37:17,057 Speaker 1: similar to the Soviet Union propaganda of yesteryear. And guess what, 652 00:37:17,177 --> 00:37:19,377 Speaker 1: now we're dealing with a situation in Ukraine with Putin. 653 00:37:19,417 --> 00:37:21,777 Speaker 1: Then it just really brings it all full circle that 654 00:37:21,817 --> 00:37:24,057 Speaker 1: these same people like Jensaki are saying we have to 655 00:37:24,097 --> 00:37:27,217 Speaker 1: defeat Putin and that Putin is so evil. But then 656 00:37:27,337 --> 00:37:30,377 Speaker 1: they're also employing the same tax that Putin used to 657 00:37:30,417 --> 00:37:33,097 Speaker 1: employ when he was in the KGB working with the USSR, 658 00:37:33,137 --> 00:37:35,257 Speaker 1: and now he wants to reinstill the glory. So it's 659 00:37:35,297 --> 00:37:37,657 Speaker 1: all connected. And if everybody was just a little bit 660 00:37:37,657 --> 00:37:39,897 Speaker 1: more aware of the world around them, of civics, of 661 00:37:40,017 --> 00:37:42,577 Speaker 1: history of government, perhaps we'd be in a better place. 662 00:37:42,657 --> 00:37:45,057 Speaker 1: But what do you know. You can't make people care. 663 00:37:45,177 --> 00:37:46,937 Speaker 1: They're going to have to learn the lesson the hard way, 664 00:37:46,937 --> 00:37:49,577 Speaker 1: and let's be real, that's probably going to happen. Be 665 00:37:49,697 --> 00:37:52,217 Speaker 1: careful with all that sanity, Morgan, the lips don't like it. 666 00:37:55,017 --> 00:37:59,377 Speaker 1: Thank you, Bud, thanks for joining us. An Italian school 667 00:37:59,617 --> 00:38:03,137 Speaker 1: gives a heartwarming welcome to Ukrainian refugee children on the 668 00:38:03,177 --> 00:38:06,377 Speaker 1: first day. We'll show you the uplifting viral video coming 669 00:38:06,457 --> 00:38:15,417 Speaker 1: up in quickets. Senator ram Paul introduces an amendment that 670 00:38:15,417 --> 00:38:18,737 Speaker 1: would eliminate doctor Fauci's position as the NIH director, and 671 00:38:18,817 --> 00:38:22,817 Speaker 1: a brave employee of Russian State media interrupts a live 672 00:38:22,857 --> 00:38:25,617 Speaker 1: broadcast with an anti war sign. It is time for 673 00:38:25,857 --> 00:38:31,137 Speaker 1: quick hits. Where's Faucci? Has anybody seen him fallen? In 674 00:38:31,217 --> 00:38:34,097 Speaker 1: between the place in the car where you buckle the 675 00:38:34,137 --> 00:38:36,537 Speaker 1: seatbelt and where the chair is with the door, you know, 676 00:38:37,057 --> 00:38:39,297 Speaker 1: what's what's going on? Where's Fauci? It's just kind of 677 00:38:39,297 --> 00:38:41,977 Speaker 1: disappeared for a while. Seems so strange because he was 678 00:38:41,977 --> 00:38:44,217 Speaker 1: on TV about every five minutes for the last two years. 679 00:38:44,257 --> 00:38:46,777 Speaker 1: The guy was obsessed with seeing his face on the 680 00:38:46,817 --> 00:38:51,777 Speaker 1: TV screen, spewing nonsense and tyrannical idiocy. But somehow it's 681 00:38:51,777 --> 00:38:56,097 Speaker 1: really hard to find him. Well, Senator Rampaul may find him. 682 00:38:56,177 --> 00:39:00,417 Speaker 1: He's introduced an amendment that would eliminate doctor Anthony Fauci's 683 00:39:00,457 --> 00:39:03,257 Speaker 1: position as the director of the National Institute of Allergy 684 00:39:03,657 --> 00:39:06,897 Speaker 1: and Infectious Disease. In a statement, Senator Paul put out, 685 00:39:06,937 --> 00:39:09,617 Speaker 1: We've learned a lot of the past two years, but 686 00:39:09,777 --> 00:39:13,017 Speaker 1: one les in particular is that no one person should 687 00:39:13,057 --> 00:39:16,457 Speaker 1: be deemed dictator in chief. No one person should have 688 00:39:16,537 --> 00:39:21,657 Speaker 1: unilateral authority to make decisions for millions of Americans. It's 689 00:39:21,697 --> 00:39:25,857 Speaker 1: absolutely true. Of course, I would assume that doctor Fauci 690 00:39:26,017 --> 00:39:29,497 Speaker 1: will retire if Republicans take back control of the House 691 00:39:29,577 --> 00:39:32,217 Speaker 1: and perhaps the Senate as well, because then they would 692 00:39:32,217 --> 00:39:34,297 Speaker 1: want to have hearings, they would ask for the basis 693 00:39:34,297 --> 00:39:36,777 Speaker 1: for a lot of the decision making, which was not 694 00:39:36,897 --> 00:39:38,617 Speaker 1: rooted in science. It was rooted in do what we 695 00:39:38,697 --> 00:39:42,617 Speaker 1: say or else. It was rooted in shut up and 696 00:39:42,697 --> 00:39:47,217 Speaker 1: obey peasant. While the elites, of course zoom from their couches, 697 00:39:47,417 --> 00:39:50,817 Speaker 1: order in their food and could care less about remember 698 00:39:50,897 --> 00:39:53,377 Speaker 1: the essential workers. They were all going out there having 699 00:39:53,377 --> 00:39:56,297 Speaker 1: to risk getting COVID. It didn't stop the elites from 700 00:39:56,297 --> 00:39:59,377 Speaker 1: talking about how we're all in this together. It's all 701 00:39:59,457 --> 00:40:02,497 Speaker 1: so dishonest and so grotesque. It was a mass hysteria. 702 00:40:02,777 --> 00:40:06,137 Speaker 1: I've actually spoken to a psychiatrist on radio about this recently, 703 00:40:06,297 --> 00:40:09,617 Speaker 1: who not as a patient but as a guest interview, 704 00:40:10,177 --> 00:40:12,017 Speaker 1: who said that it is a it is a mass 705 00:40:12,497 --> 00:40:15,737 Speaker 1: delusion hysteria that the country has been through because of 706 00:40:15,777 --> 00:40:20,337 Speaker 1: people like Anthony Fauci, No question about it. Now there's 707 00:40:20,497 --> 00:40:25,337 Speaker 1: some real bravery that is occurring here inside of Russia. 708 00:40:25,337 --> 00:40:28,457 Speaker 1: There are people who have been who've been attacked for 709 00:40:28,577 --> 00:40:31,697 Speaker 1: trying to protest against the war. You've seen video, I'm 710 00:40:31,737 --> 00:40:34,217 Speaker 1: sure if you spend time on social media of Russians 711 00:40:34,617 --> 00:40:38,097 Speaker 1: speaking out against Putin's aggression in Ukraine and being bludgeoned 712 00:40:38,097 --> 00:40:40,297 Speaker 1: with truncheons, being attacked out on the streets of their 713 00:40:40,337 --> 00:40:42,897 Speaker 1: own city. Because there is no free speech in Russia. 714 00:40:42,897 --> 00:40:45,577 Speaker 1: It's effectively under a form of martial law. Right now, 715 00:40:45,937 --> 00:40:48,177 Speaker 1: you say anything bad about the war and men with 716 00:40:48,257 --> 00:40:51,177 Speaker 1: guns and batons start attacking you under the orders of 717 00:40:51,177 --> 00:40:55,617 Speaker 1: the state. While a employee of Russian state TV Channel 718 00:40:55,657 --> 00:40:59,497 Speaker 1: one interrupted a live broadcast with an anti war sign, 719 00:40:59,497 --> 00:41:02,977 Speaker 1: the sign says, stop the war, don't believe propaganda. They're 720 00:41:03,017 --> 00:41:07,017 Speaker 1: alling to you here. Marina av zena Kova is her name. 721 00:41:07,097 --> 00:41:19,817 Speaker 1: Watch Francis keeping me up, sau see. They switched the 722 00:41:19,857 --> 00:41:22,977 Speaker 1: shot there very quickly to try to avoid more people 723 00:41:23,217 --> 00:41:26,697 Speaker 1: seeing this. Um she is going to face reprisals. That 724 00:41:26,737 --> 00:41:29,017 Speaker 1: woman is going to face reprisals from the Putin regime 725 00:41:29,057 --> 00:41:33,857 Speaker 1: for her bravery in standing up against this unjust aggressive war. 726 00:41:34,217 --> 00:41:38,937 Speaker 1: And it's it's one of those moments where you realize, 727 00:41:39,017 --> 00:41:41,297 Speaker 1: you know, living in a free society, which we still 728 00:41:41,297 --> 00:41:43,497 Speaker 1: aren't America technically, although some days it feels like less 729 00:41:43,497 --> 00:41:46,057 Speaker 1: and less. So it's such a precious thing and needs 730 00:41:46,057 --> 00:41:47,897 Speaker 1: to be defended. People need to be able to speak out, 731 00:41:47,897 --> 00:41:50,777 Speaker 1: speak their minds without the hand of the state coming 732 00:41:50,777 --> 00:41:53,697 Speaker 1: down to crush them, despite what the idiots on the 733 00:41:53,817 --> 00:41:56,657 Speaker 1: view or some panel at MSNBC or the New York 734 00:41:56,657 --> 00:42:00,897 Speaker 1: Times editorial page may think. Oh and then there's the 735 00:42:01,057 --> 00:42:05,977 Speaker 1: white Houses TikTok influencer campaign. There was a TikTok influencer campaign. 736 00:42:06,017 --> 00:42:09,137 Speaker 1: They brought down the TikTok influencers to have people who 737 00:42:10,417 --> 00:42:15,377 Speaker 1: probably would have trouble spelling gasoline to expect to explain 738 00:42:16,057 --> 00:42:21,057 Speaker 1: gas prices and inflation to very young, impressionable audiences from 739 00:42:21,057 --> 00:42:25,817 Speaker 1: the most effective mouthpieces possible. Here is one TikTok influencer 740 00:42:25,857 --> 00:42:28,177 Speaker 1: who repeated the White House talking points. Watch this one. 741 00:42:28,897 --> 00:42:31,497 Speaker 1: Why is gas so expensive? And why is the United 742 00:42:31,537 --> 00:42:34,937 Speaker 1: States inflation rate at a four time decade high. I 743 00:42:35,017 --> 00:42:37,537 Speaker 1: had the opportunity to ask the White House white gas 744 00:42:37,577 --> 00:42:40,297 Speaker 1: down the street is seven dollars, And here's what they said. 745 00:42:40,937 --> 00:42:43,817 Speaker 1: The obvious reason we're getting out of a two year pandemic. 746 00:42:43,897 --> 00:42:46,737 Speaker 1: When use goes up, the price goes up. But the 747 00:42:46,777 --> 00:42:49,737 Speaker 1: call is predominantly about Ukraine and Russia, So how does 748 00:42:49,777 --> 00:42:52,737 Speaker 1: that relate. Russia is one of the top three producers 749 00:42:52,737 --> 00:42:56,697 Speaker 1: of oil and it is actually their number one revenue source. Now, 750 00:42:56,737 --> 00:43:00,137 Speaker 1: with Putin starting this horrific fight between Ukraine and Russia, 751 00:43:00,457 --> 00:43:03,097 Speaker 1: nobody wants to work with him and do an international trade. 752 00:43:03,497 --> 00:43:06,737 Speaker 1: So if people being scared of war and limited resources, 753 00:43:06,817 --> 00:43:08,817 Speaker 1: prices are bound to go up as well. For the 754 00:43:08,817 --> 00:43:11,777 Speaker 1: people who can't pay seven dollars for a gallon of gas, 755 00:43:11,937 --> 00:43:14,137 Speaker 1: there's an app called Gas Buddy that shows you the 756 00:43:14,257 --> 00:43:17,857 Speaker 1: cheapest gas near you. It's blind demand. I'd like her 757 00:43:17,857 --> 00:43:20,177 Speaker 1: to explain that one to me. Curious how she would 758 00:43:20,177 --> 00:43:23,057 Speaker 1: do with it. Here's a good moment. There are people 759 00:43:23,057 --> 00:43:26,657 Speaker 1: who are doing a lot to help those civilians impacted 760 00:43:26,777 --> 00:43:30,097 Speaker 1: in Ukraine. There's millions of refugees in Italy. They've taken 761 00:43:30,097 --> 00:43:33,337 Speaker 1: in some young Ukrainian refugees from the war zone and 762 00:43:33,497 --> 00:43:36,697 Speaker 1: students gave them a warm welcome. Watch this one, Why 763 00:43:36,977 --> 00:43:56,017 Speaker 1: I Am That's ever to Night's hold the Line the 764 00:43:56,057 --> 00:44:13,657 Speaker 1: Nose Spinoos with Bill Riley's next shield's high
