Speaker 1: the Freedom Hut. Friday, September ninth edition of the program.
Speaker 1: We have California giving a pad on the head to
Speaker 1: its residents for helping them avoid blackouts. Governor Ronda Santis
Speaker 1: calls them out. We've also got the continued lawfare against
Speaker 1: everybody in the GOP by the Libs. Whether it's Steve
Speaker 1: Bannon prosecution underway right now, or the Trump Marlago documents,
Speaker 1: or you name it. They are trying to do everything
Speaker 1: that can to criminalize their political opponents. We will break
Speaker 1: this down for you and then I do not have
Speaker 1: a lot of thoughts on the legacy of the royal
Speaker 1: family in the UK, and I'm wondering how many of you,
Speaker 1: like me, are respectful about the issue but also not
Speaker 1: particularly interested in a lot of in depth analysis on
Speaker 1: the issue. I don't know, I'm wondering, so let me know.
Speaker 1: You can send me a message at Facebook dot com
Speaker 1: slash buck Sexton or on Twitter at buck Sexton. Because
Speaker 1: I'm sitting around saying I'm still shocked at how many
Speaker 1: Americans are. Some of them were crying and in mourning
Speaker 1: and all this. I mean, I don't know, So explain
Speaker 1: that to me if you want, or if you agree
Speaker 1: with me, explain that to me. That would be interesting.
Speaker 1: There's no sign of identity theft slowing down, and why
Speaker 1: should it. More than fourteen billion dollars were stolen from
Speaker 1: identity theft victims last year alone. To cyber criminals, it's
Speaker 1: a success story. To the rest of us, it is
Speaker 1: a wake up call. Your personal info is in more
Speaker 1: places now than ever, and all that exposure can make

Speaker 1: of a victory lap here because they didn't have blackouts
Speaker 1: at California because people apparently turned off they're turned off
Speaker 1: their electricity. Enough enough of those prius, Actually, I guess
Speaker 1: you don't charge your priests in the wall. Enough of
Speaker 1: those tesla's, the electric cars you charge in They said,
Speaker 1: don't actually know you must do you charge? How do
Speaker 1: you charge your prius? I don't even you must do it?
Speaker 1: Plug it in, right, Yeah, So that's the same thing,
Speaker 1: or no prius is a hybrid. I don't know who cares.
Speaker 1: Point is they're saying, good job, you helped us avoid
Speaker 1: blackouts in California. Governor Ron DeSantis, who has a brewing
Speaker 1: a feud, a slow boil back and forth with the
Speaker 1: governor of California, had this to say about it. They
Speaker 1: can't keep the power on in California. Play twenty three.
Speaker 1: You know you hear all this stuff. I mean, I
Speaker 1: hear a lot of people chirping about Florida from like California.
Speaker 1: They're so worried about Florida. They can't even keep the
Speaker 1: power on in California. I mean, are you kidding me?
Speaker 1: Someone told me that they will be able once all
Speaker 1: the people that want to move to Florida move out
Speaker 1: of there, then maybe they'll have adequate power. But I mean,
Speaker 1: it's just it's just ridiculous. And so, you know, we've
Speaker 1: been able to do that. Part of it, though, is just,
Speaker 1: you know, we stood for people's rights, we stood for
Speaker 1: people's freedoms. And obviously the state has done very well.
Speaker 1: We have more people employed in Florida than we did
Speaker 1: prior to COVID. Florida is the huge success story. California's
Speaker 1: falling apart, and this is what is obvious, Boddy. There's
Speaker 1: also a narrative that the Libs are gonna fight and
Speaker 1: they're gonna opiskate, they're gonna lie whatever they gotta do
Speaker 1: to event people from recognizing what is so apparent the
Speaker 1: moment you give it some thought. They're having blackouts in California,
Speaker 1: their cities are in decay, crime rates rising dramatically, have
Speaker 1: super high taxes. I mean, I just have to wonder
Speaker 1: if somebody has a choice between Florida and California, if
Speaker 1: they were coming from elsewhere in the country, why would
Speaker 1: they choose California. They want to pay a dysfunctional, activist,
Speaker 1: climate change obsessed state government more of their money. They
Speaker 1: think that's a good idea. I mean, I certainly, I
Speaker 1: certainly hope that that's not something. Well, maybe very few
Speaker 1: of them will do that, though, because we've seen hundreds
Speaker 1: of thousands of people moving to Florida. But this is
Speaker 1: also a moment where you have to remember, just because
Speaker 1: the Democrats are failing in various endeavors on a whole
Speaker 1: range of issues, it doesn't mean that they're going to change.
Speaker 1: This is ideological for them. They are devoted to these ideas.
Speaker 1: This isn't just about the result. In fact, it's often
Speaker 1: not about the result at all. It's about how the pursuit,
Speaker 1: how the intention makes them feel, and how it makes
Speaker 1: them able to wield power more totally over over individuals.
Speaker 1: And that there's that word total asn't totalitarian. State of
Speaker 1: California doesn't really care that the people are suffering from
Speaker 1: high gas prices, They threat of blackouts, I mean, all
Speaker 1: the dysfunction you could possibly imagine. Meanwhile, in Florida, Rhonda
Speaker 1: Santist continues to make smart decisions that benefit everybody in
Speaker 1: their day to day lives in that state. I'd also
Speaker 1: note that he is getting rid of any mask mandates
Speaker 1: for students that are in the Headstart program. He's saying,
Speaker 1: look for children. He's saying, we're not masking up kids
Speaker 1: anymore in this state. We're just not doing it. That
Speaker 1: is absolutely the right move. Masking up children is child abuse.
Speaker 1: It needs to stop, all right. We are forcing children
Speaker 1: to suffer developmental delays, to make them stressed, to make
Speaker 1: them physically uncomfortable, because adults are too stupid and cowardly
Speaker 1: to accept the reality that Fauci is an evil tyrant
Speaker 1: who knows nothing and that the entire response to COVID
Speaker 1: was a disaster. They don't want to accept that, so
Speaker 1: that they won't look at reality there. They also won't
Speaker 1: deal with reality on crime. You know, I want everyone
Speaker 1: to know across the country that while the stories are
Speaker 1: getting out, and particularly because of what we've seen in
Speaker 1: Memphis in the last week, the heinous kidnapping, rape and
Speaker 1: murder of Eliza Fletcher, and then this mass shooting of
Speaker 1: that killed four by this guy who was already imprisoned
Speaker 1: for attempted first degree murder. He only served a very
Speaker 1: short sentence. I think it was a couple of years
Speaker 1: and is out and now he's facing the death penalty.
Speaker 1: He certainly should, but people are paying more attention to crime.
Speaker 1: While that's happening, you may think will the Democrats are
Speaker 1: going to have to change course on this when they're
Speaker 1: going to start being more reasonable because they don't want
Speaker 1: to lose elections. They may pretend, they may allow people
Speaker 1: to think that they're not quite as insane as they've
Speaker 1: been in the past, but that's not the reality of
Speaker 1: what they're going to do. In Chicago, for example, or
Speaker 1: the crime rate as we all know, the violent crimes,
Speaker 1: the murders that are going on in that city completely
Speaker 1: out of control, totally unacceptable. They're going to be passing
Speaker 1: a criminal or rather, they're going to be instituting a
Speaker 1: criminal reform law that has already been passed that will
Speaker 1: make it harder to arrest people. They'll be fewer things
Speaker 1: you can actually affect an arrest of a person for
Speaker 1: a crime for doing. And also they're going to be
Speaker 1: making it so that people don't have to pay any
Speaker 1: cash for bail. Now I understand the theory beyond cash bail.
Speaker 1: But what it means is that people just get let out.
Speaker 1: They just get let out, and that gives them a
Speaker 1: perception of impunity, effectively that the law. I mean, you
Speaker 1: get arrested, you get out, and then you're going to
Speaker 1: go to the court maybe and the judge is going
Speaker 1: to be a left wing, soft on crime Democrats, so
Speaker 1: then you're going to get a very minimal sentence of anything.
Speaker 1: I mean, this is what keeps happening. They're not just
Speaker 1: going to improve because of the failures, because, as I've said,
Speaker 1: it is ideological for them. They are emotionally devoted to
Speaker 1: these policies even if they're failing, which they are, which
Speaker 1: means they're going to keep doing it. Come into the
Speaker 1: latest lawfare issues here in just a second. Have you
Speaker 1: ever want to invest in real estate? My friends? But
Speaker 1: you did another time to do it on your own.
Speaker 1: I felt that way until a few years ago when
Speaker 1: I met the founders have done for your real estate.
Speaker 1: I am now a real estate investor. I am building
Speaker 1: my portfolio slowly and intelligently over time, going for safe
Speaker 1: growth real estate that I know, over the long run,
Speaker 1: is going to build financial stability for me and provide
Speaker 1: great homes for people to live in the meantime. Good
Speaker 1: are done for you Buck dot Com and Done for
Speaker 1: your real Estate will take you through every step of
Speaker 1: the process. You could be like me, a total novice,
Speaker 1: never even I never even bought a home period to
Speaker 1: live in. My first home I ever purchased from was
Speaker 1: from Done What was with the help of Done for
Speaker 1: your real Estate, and it was an investment property that
Speaker 1: I've done very well with. Go to done for you
Speaker 1: Buck dot Com. They'll teach you about the whole process,
Speaker 1: every step from finding the house, getting the management company,
Speaker 1: the tenant in place, leave and help you get the loan.
Speaker 1: All of it done for you, Buck dot com. One
Speaker 1: more time, that's done for you, Buck dot Com. Yeah.
Speaker 1: The rule of law in this country is definitely under assault,
Speaker 1: and it's coming from the left. Here is Josh Holly
Speaker 1: who's pointing out that while violent crime, while the crime
Speaker 1: that is a true threat to individuals, is raging out
Speaker 1: of control, and Democrats are always making excuses for it.
Speaker 1: Across the country. There are very quick the Democrats are
Speaker 1: very quick to use the FBI as their own little
Speaker 1: Stazi to arrest their political opponents or harass them bring
Speaker 1: charges against them whole January six. In some cases, non
Speaker 1: violent offenders in solitary confinement for over a year. All
Speaker 1: the political crimes are treated very seriously by Democrats. Actual crimes, violence, theft, destruction, robbery,
Speaker 1: that something Democrats are always explaining away plate clip nineteen.
Speaker 1: But we're seeing as an administration that cares nothing about
Speaker 1: the rule of law. They only care about abusing it.
Speaker 1: The only time they're interested in law enforcement is when
Speaker 1: they can use it against their political opponents, especially Donald
Speaker 1: Trump or anybody who supported Donald Trump. And what we're
Speaker 1: seeing as an effort by this president to use law enforcement,
Speaker 1: to abuse law enforcement, to try to criminalize basically the
Speaker 1: political opposition, which is half the country. I meantime, you've
Speaker 1: got people like this Keller and Memphis. We're seeing, we're
Speaker 1: seeing shooting sprees, we're seeing murders, we're seeing carjackings all
Speaker 1: across the country, all across the country. Biden, DJ won't
Speaker 1: lift a finger to do anything about the crime spree
Speaker 1: that is hurting and killing Americans. But they've got all
Speaker 1: the time in the world to target their political opponents.
Speaker 1: It's just true. And look what they're doing right now
Speaker 1: with Steve Bannon there. They've they've had Steve Bennon turn
Speaker 1: himself in. He's facing criminal charges. They're saying he defrauded
Speaker 1: people who gave money for the Build the Wall project.
Speaker 1: He's essentially saying that he used some of that too
Speaker 1: much of that money, or illegally use that money to
Speaker 1: pay personal expenses. I mean, this is essentially this is
Speaker 1: very close to being a tax or irs audit kind
Speaker 1: of crime, right, I mean, is there is there some
Speaker 1: gray area? I mean, do I do we know all
Speaker 1: the facts yet about exactly what happened, but is there
Speaker 1: a gray area that Steve Bannon may have been operating in?
Speaker 1: Was he maybe a little too quick to spend money
Speaker 1: on things that Okay, they're really going to bring this
Speaker 1: as a criminal charge. They're gonna bring this, and we're
Speaker 1: supposed to believe it's not a political targeting. If Steve
Speaker 1: Bannon was running a charity to you know, save Chihuahuas
Speaker 1: or something instead of a Build the Wall project, and
Speaker 1: if he wasn't Steve benn and if he was just
Speaker 1: you know, John Doe, do you think they would really
Speaker 1: bring this criminal charge after obviously there was already a
Speaker 1: presidential pardon at the federal level. For him, this is
Speaker 1: all about sending a message they will never relent, They
Speaker 1: will never let it go. If you cross the left,
Speaker 1: they will continue to target you and to try to
Speaker 1: ruin your life for as long as they are in power.
Speaker 1: The only way to make it stop is to raise
Speaker 1: the cost of this kind of political targeting and to
Speaker 1: fight back against it, because they will just believe rightly
Speaker 1: so in a sense that they can continue to get
Speaker 1: away with this. It's very, very frustrating, and I think
Speaker 1: that the GOP needs to have a bit of a
Speaker 1: wake up call with all of this. They need to
Speaker 1: have a wake up call about how the left uses
Speaker 1: the law as a weapon of politics on a regular basis.
Speaker 1: The mar Lago raid today, there's more leaks about how
Speaker 1: oh there's additional classified information they have to go and find.
Speaker 1: I just think that what they're doing is waiting to
Speaker 1: see how the midterms go, and then depending on what
Speaker 1: the midterm aftermath is like for Democrats, is Trump the
Speaker 1: clear nominee for the Republicans for president, and then maybe
Speaker 1: they do throw a criminal charge at him, even if
Speaker 1: it's obstruction, even if it's flimsy, it's just meant to
Speaker 1: dirty up Trump a bit more. They can call them
Speaker 1: an indicted criminal and all this other stuff. That's what
Speaker 1: they're going to do because they're desperate. What else they
Speaker 1: going to talk about? The weak economy, the wide open
Speaker 1: border crime, and all of our cities with a huge spike. Well,
Speaker 1: what are they going to tell us that makes any
Speaker 1: reasonable person? Look, you can win over crazy Libs. They
Speaker 1: think the earth is melting and they're freaked out about
Speaker 1: climate change. Fine, but for independence, for anybody that's open
Speaker 1: to voting for either side. Democrats don't have a compelling
Speaker 1: case and everyone knows it. So they're going to turn
Speaker 1: this into a massive smear campaign and they're going to
Speaker 1: use the law where they can in the service of that.
Speaker 1: So we have to be very aware of it going
Speaker 1: forward and have to fight back against it. All Right,
Speaker 1: I'm down in Austin for the weekend, so if you
Speaker 1: see me at the Texas versus Alabama game, please come
Speaker 1: say hello. I will be back with you on Monday
Speaker 1: from NYC. Until then, she'll tie
