1 00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,800 Speaker 1: All right, second hour, Clay end buck, get's going right now, 2 00:00:02,920 --> 00:00:06,320 Speaker 1: and we had mentioned this before. Let's just line up 3 00:00:06,360 --> 00:00:10,799 Speaker 1: the latest again, the latest picks that Trump has made 4 00:00:11,039 --> 00:00:14,640 Speaker 1: or is in process of making. Some of these have 5 00:00:14,680 --> 00:00:19,880 Speaker 1: been announced already, met Oz, Doctor Oz, that's right. He 6 00:00:21,079 --> 00:00:27,840 Speaker 1: has been tapped to oversee Medicare and Medicaid. So that's 7 00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:31,760 Speaker 1: what's going on there. Interesting the senator Medicare and Medicaid 8 00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:36,959 Speaker 1: Services CMS. Okay, injury. I mean a very smart guy, 9 00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:40,200 Speaker 1: very successful guy. Doctor I mean, I if he wants 10 00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:41,880 Speaker 1: that job, I think we're lucky to have him in 11 00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:44,839 Speaker 1: that job. Quite honestly. I you know, people aren't usually 12 00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:47,920 Speaker 1: beating down the President's door to behead of CMS. It 13 00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:52,240 Speaker 1: is a massively important entity though as we know, right 14 00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:55,320 Speaker 1: that's it's one of these jobs that doesn't sound as 15 00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:59,320 Speaker 1: as sexy, if you will, but it definitely matters. So 16 00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:03,000 Speaker 1: doctor Oz taking that I see this as him wanting 17 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:05,640 Speaker 1: to serve, which is what we want. We actually want 18 00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:08,319 Speaker 1: people who take these jobs. I know Clay agrees with 19 00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:09,920 Speaker 1: on this. We want people who take these jobs to 20 00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:14,679 Speaker 1: do good things for the American people, not to pad 21 00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:18,920 Speaker 1: their book advance for a book nobody will read and 22 00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:21,880 Speaker 1: you know, to up their speaking fees after they've been 23 00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:24,520 Speaker 1: you know, secretary of whatever for a couple of years. Right, 24 00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:28,160 Speaker 1: So I think doctor Oz, that's a good pick. Linda 25 00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:32,399 Speaker 1: McMahon Education Secretary. I think she's aligned with the Trump 26 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:35,200 Speaker 1: agenda on education. She knows how to run a business. 27 00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:39,039 Speaker 1: She's very close with Trump. Obviously got plenty of money. 28 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:44,199 Speaker 1: Sean Duffy we talked about Transportation Secretary, which he's great. 29 00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:47,240 Speaker 1: I'm just laughing because they're like, they're going back to 30 00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 1: the real It was a Real World or road Rule. 31 00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:51,400 Speaker 1: He was on Real World way back, I think, right, 32 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:54,800 Speaker 1: I hate to be an expert on this. I believe 33 00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:58,040 Speaker 1: Buck he was on Real World. He was then on 34 00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:03,240 Speaker 1: Real World road Rules Challenge, which was a spinoff and 35 00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:06,560 Speaker 1: I this is like and then he was, I believe, 36 00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:11,240 Speaker 1: on The Challenge, which is one of the longest running 37 00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:14,680 Speaker 1: shows on cable. Surely you've watched this. I guarantee Kerry 38 00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:19,840 Speaker 1: has watched this. This was the TJ oh God. TJ. 39 00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:24,280 Speaker 1: Lavin hosts this show where they have like basic crazy 40 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:27,520 Speaker 1: competitions all over the world between You've never seen this show. 41 00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:30,239 Speaker 1: Never seen this show. It's one of the I think 42 00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:33,800 Speaker 1: I'm correct in this and many of you. There's a 43 00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:36,680 Speaker 1: huge percentage of people that are like, yes, Clay, that 44 00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 1: show is amazing, and then there's a huge percentage of 45 00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:41,680 Speaker 1: people that have never heard of this at all. It's 46 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:44,720 Speaker 1: one of the most popular shows on cable now and 47 00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:51,000 Speaker 1: it basically is former Real World and road Rules contestants, 48 00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:57,040 Speaker 1: reality show people competing in basically sportslike events that is 49 00:02:57,080 --> 00:03:02,400 Speaker 1: somewhat survivor like for MTV. So anyway, wow, you're not 50 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:08,360 Speaker 1: an ex Clay apparently, and like the Pantheon of Clay knowledge, 51 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:11,680 Speaker 1: it's college football. And then somewhere up around there is 52 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:16,360 Speaker 1: MTV Real World spin off show Loved. I loved the 53 00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:19,160 Speaker 1: Real World shows in the nineties and the early I 54 00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 1: am an expert on the early nineties era Real World 55 00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:26,800 Speaker 1: in early two thousand. So those are the picks that 56 00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:31,360 Speaker 1: have been announced. One pick that has been talked about. 57 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:33,440 Speaker 1: One choice that we would love to see and I 58 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 1: tease this before in the last hour, that to run 59 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:41,840 Speaker 1: nih National Institute of Health. There is there are reports 60 00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 1: that President Trump is considering doctor Batacharia. Doctor J. Batacharia 61 00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:51,880 Speaker 1: one of the best people in the medical field when 62 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 1: it counted, when it counted, when it was hard when 63 00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 1: people were, you know, being silenced and shouted down and 64 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 1: threatened in their career, being undermined. Doctor j. Boticharia was 65 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 1: a stud when it counted, and having him at the 66 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:10,760 Speaker 1: NIH and to do a real you know, hot wash, 67 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:13,840 Speaker 1: I mean to really figure out where it is that 68 00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 1: all this stuff went wrong, why there were no processes 69 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:18,600 Speaker 1: to come forward with the truth, and basically figure out 70 00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 1: how that little little turd Fauci was able to do 71 00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 1: what he did. That is that would be phenomenal for 72 00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:28,400 Speaker 1: doctor Batachari, I think to be in that pick. But 73 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:30,640 Speaker 1: one thing that I thought was kind of funny Clay. 74 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:36,080 Speaker 1: Over at the View, they are not particularly excited about 75 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:38,599 Speaker 1: well much of anything these days. As you might have seen. 76 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 1: It's kind of like an ongoing funeral over there, a 77 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 1: funeral for the America that they think exists, that never 78 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:48,240 Speaker 1: really existed, but whatever, a funeral for democracy since the 79 00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 1: people chose Donald Trump, that that means democracy must be dead. 80 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:55,240 Speaker 1: They're very sad over at the View, and at least 81 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:57,440 Speaker 1: a couple of their hosts are very opposed to the 82 00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:02,800 Speaker 1: Trump nominees and particularly Gates, and they have said some 83 00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:06,479 Speaker 1: very not nice things about mister Matt Gates over there 84 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:11,920 Speaker 1: so much so that Sonny Houston, the lawyer on that set, 85 00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 1: the former federal prosecutor on that set, had to read 86 00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:17,480 Speaker 1: everyone is describing it the same way because it did 87 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:21,279 Speaker 1: look and sound like this. It is like a hostage video. 88 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:27,640 Speaker 1: She is reading this with maximum disdain to basically admit, 89 00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 1: because there are legal liabilities, you cannot say like some 90 00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:33,839 Speaker 1: You can't just go on and say, you know, someone 91 00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:36,279 Speaker 1: is a convicted sex offender because you don't like them, like, 92 00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:38,279 Speaker 1: you can't say that from your you know, you can't 93 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:40,360 Speaker 1: lie about somebody. Now, she didn't say that, but she's 94 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:42,960 Speaker 1: made all these allegations. She's getting very close to that line. 95 00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 1: So here's what she had to read on air on 96 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 1: their show. Listen, Sonny, you legal. 97 00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:51,719 Speaker 2: I do have a legal note, Thank you, Whippy. Matt 98 00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:56,680 Speaker 2: Gates has long denied all allegations, calling the claims quote invented, 99 00:05:57,160 --> 00:05:59,760 Speaker 2: and saying in a statement to ABC News that this 100 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:03,680 Speaker 2: smear following a three year criminal investigation should be viewed 101 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:08,640 Speaker 2: with great skepticism. That DOJ investigation was closed with no 102 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:09,839 Speaker 2: charges being brought. 103 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:13,719 Speaker 1: She's not excited to have to read that, But isn't 104 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 1: an interesting because that is all true. He was never 105 00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 1: even charged. So now we're supposed to say that someone's 106 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 1: reputation should be destroyed and someone shouldn't be able to 107 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:26,599 Speaker 1: serve in publiclay because of a charge that was never 108 00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:31,280 Speaker 1: even charged. Yeah, and look, I mean accusing somebody of 109 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:35,280 Speaker 1: having committed a crime that they were never charged with 110 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:43,640 Speaker 1: is potentially defamation, certainly, And I think one thing that 111 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:48,440 Speaker 1: should happen is Times v. Sullivan needs to be re examined. 112 00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:50,800 Speaker 1: And for those of you out there that are not 113 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:55,360 Speaker 1: First Amendment obsessives, I totally get it. That was basically 114 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:59,159 Speaker 1: the framework for how First Amendment law is applied to 115 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:04,480 Speaker 1: public figure. But it was written that case and decided 116 00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:08,280 Speaker 1: that case buck in a time when every person didn't 117 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:14,480 Speaker 1: have the ability to broadcast whatever accusations they wanted, And 118 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 1: back in the day it was a big deal. You 119 00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 1: used to say, your name was for most people, your 120 00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 1: name was in the newspaper, maybe when you're born and 121 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 1: maybe when you die, and most of the time you 122 00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:28,680 Speaker 1: were not a public figure. There wasn't anything written about you. 123 00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 1: There wasn't anything out there. I would argue. Nowadays, anybody 124 00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:35,840 Speaker 1: can go megaviral in an instant, and that's why honestly, 125 00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 1: I wish the coving Remember the Covington Catholic kids, Nicholas 126 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:44,600 Speaker 1: Sandman that were just outside of Lincoln the Lincoln Memorial. 127 00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 1: I believe they were kids from Kentucky high school kids, 128 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:53,040 Speaker 1: and the mainstream media just absolutely eviscerated them because they 129 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:56,000 Speaker 1: happened to be wearing Make America Great Again hats and 130 00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 1: they tried to turn them into awful racist and then 131 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:01,960 Speaker 1: the four video comes out and they didn't do anything 132 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:05,360 Speaker 1: wrong at all, and they're actually the victims. I would 133 00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 1: like to see one of those cases really go to 134 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:14,920 Speaker 1: court and obliterate somewhere like CNN or somewhere like MSNBC, 135 00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:19,600 Speaker 1: because we've gotten used to this era where you can 136 00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:23,119 Speaker 1: just say anything about anyone even if it's not remotely true, 137 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:24,560 Speaker 1: and a lot of times it can be from a 138 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:27,960 Speaker 1: ten second video that's been doctored that isn't remotely accurate 139 00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:32,720 Speaker 1: of what really happened. And I think, honestly, Matt Gets 140 00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:37,600 Speaker 1: probably has some legitimate cases that he could bring. And 141 00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 1: by the way, calling Trump Hitler kind of beyond the 142 00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:46,480 Speaker 1: pale aspect of things. I think there are a lot 143 00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:48,800 Speaker 1: of guys and gals out there that have had truly 144 00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:53,360 Speaker 1: awful things said about them that are untrue, that probably 145 00:08:55,120 --> 00:09:01,480 Speaker 1: there should be some sort of culpability or responsibility on 146 00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:04,360 Speaker 1: behalf of the news organizations out there. They get a 147 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:07,680 Speaker 1: lot of things wrong, completely and utterly wrong, and buck 148 00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:10,679 Speaker 1: I think a lot of times there's malice involved. Like, again, 149 00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:13,319 Speaker 1: the standard is actual malice, and the way that it's 150 00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:16,440 Speaker 1: written is different than maybe the way people could comprehend malice. 151 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:20,520 Speaker 1: But do you think MSNBC isn't intentionally saying awful things 152 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:22,839 Speaker 1: they know to be untrue about Donald Trump because they 153 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:26,000 Speaker 1: dislike him and his politics. I think that standard is 154 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:29,560 Speaker 1: certainly being met well. Also with public figures. It's right, 155 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 1: it's higher for public figures. That has to be actual malice. 156 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 1: That has to be provably false. It can't be in 157 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:38,240 Speaker 1: reckless disregard for the truth. So, like I could say 158 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:40,360 Speaker 1: that Keith Olberman is the worst person to have ever 159 00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:43,240 Speaker 1: worked in media, and I cannot be sued because that 160 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:45,160 Speaker 1: is my opinion and I think a lot of people 161 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:48,839 Speaker 1: share it. But you know, you can't say so and 162 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:52,439 Speaker 1: so murdered somebody ten years ago. Yeah, when that's not 163 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 1: unless that is a statement of fact. You can't say 164 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,640 Speaker 1: things like that right. So it's interesting though that they're 165 00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:00,760 Speaker 1: walking that line over at at the I think also 166 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 1: they may have It's one thing to slander somebody, it's 167 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:05,839 Speaker 1: another thing to slander somebody who's about to be the 168 00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 1: attorney general. I mean, I don't think Matt Gates is 169 00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:11,080 Speaker 1: going to worry himself with whatever's going on over at 170 00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:14,079 Speaker 1: the view per se, I think I do you think 171 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:17,320 Speaker 1: it's significant that they made her read that that but 172 00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:19,160 Speaker 1: this is what I mean. Yeah, I think that there 173 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:23,440 Speaker 1: are there are concerns about lawsuits. I mean Trump one thing, Trump, 174 00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 1: Trump will forgive people, uh if they if they you know, 175 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 1: if they if they come and they kiss the ring. Fine. 176 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:32,480 Speaker 1: But Trump will sue people, right, I mean he is known, 177 00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:34,320 Speaker 1: this is a matter of record. I mean, he will 178 00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:36,560 Speaker 1: resort to the law, which we are all allowed to do. 179 00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:39,280 Speaker 1: He will resort to the law to solve or to 180 00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:42,520 Speaker 1: get redressed for these kinds of disputes. It's a good point, 181 00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:46,160 Speaker 1: by the way, remember his lawsuit against ABC, which employees 182 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:51,040 Speaker 1: George Stepanovolis, is still outstanding because and this is actually significant. 183 00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:55,040 Speaker 1: Stepanopolis said that Trump had been found libel for rape, 184 00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:58,920 Speaker 1: which was not true at all. He was found lible 185 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:02,079 Speaker 1: for sexual assaul. You can argue about whether or not 186 00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 1: that you agree with that case, but the jury in 187 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:09,080 Speaker 1: that case specifically found that he did not rape the 188 00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:12,720 Speaker 1: woman that had sued him, Egene Carroll. So when George 189 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 1: Stephanopolis made those statements, which have so far been found 190 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:20,440 Speaker 1: to not they have been able to dismiss it. There's 191 00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:23,720 Speaker 1: possibility that there could be a liability associated with that 192 00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:26,240 Speaker 1: because basically what he said is Trump committed a crime 193 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:29,400 Speaker 1: and Trump did not commit a crime. And defamation per 194 00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:34,719 Speaker 1: se typically involves you saying someone committed a crime and 195 00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 1: they're not being evidence that they did that. So that's 196 00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:40,680 Speaker 1: something that they one hundred percent for instance, that stephan 197 00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:44,400 Speaker 1: Obolis got wrong. And if I remember correctly, Buck, that 198 00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:48,120 Speaker 1: was actually when they were trying to get Nancy Mayce, 199 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:53,239 Speaker 1: and I believe that was Stephanopolis saying, you're a survivor 200 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:56,199 Speaker 1: of sexual assault, how in the world could you support 201 00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:58,000 Speaker 1: Donald Trump? You remember that it was kind of a 202 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 1: particularly nasty element of an interaction on them, and I 203 00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:04,120 Speaker 1: think people are finding out just this is an aside, 204 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:06,280 Speaker 1: but you're leading me to it. I don't think you 205 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:10,600 Speaker 1: want to bring the ruckus to Nancy maces. She's ready 206 00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:13,800 Speaker 1: to throw down. She's somebody who does not does not 207 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 1: get shaken easily by media attacks and by trying to 208 00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:21,560 Speaker 1: undermine her. We can talk more about this. She is 209 00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:26,000 Speaker 1: absolutely sticking to it. When it comes to gender segregated 210 00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:29,120 Speaker 1: bathrooms on Capitol Hill, gonna we should talk about a clay. 211 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:31,680 Speaker 1: I do not think this is a small issue. I 212 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:35,199 Speaker 1: think that I think that policy that is set by 213 00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:40,640 Speaker 1: members of Congress about what's going on in Congress matters 214 00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:42,840 Speaker 1: for the whole sets of tone and sets a precedent 215 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:46,400 Speaker 1: for the whole country. And you know, polite is yes, 216 00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:48,800 Speaker 1: let people dress how they want, you call them what 217 00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:52,280 Speaker 1: name they want. But polite is not We have to 218 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:55,920 Speaker 1: live in some delusion where we no longer see objective reality. 219 00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:58,600 Speaker 1: And also this always gets left out of it. What 220 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:01,720 Speaker 1: about the feelings of the women who don't want male 221 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:04,400 Speaker 1: genitalia next to them in the bathroom? Like, well, what 222 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:08,320 Speaker 1: about their feelings? What about niceness to those people. It's 223 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:11,440 Speaker 1: one thing for somebody to dress in a dress and 224 00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:14,520 Speaker 1: claim that they are a woman. It's another thing to 225 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:20,360 Speaker 1: demand that you also accept them as women. And that 226 00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:22,160 Speaker 1: is where a lot of people are drawing a line look, 227 00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:24,480 Speaker 1: if you want to cross dress, I think it's a 228 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:27,440 Speaker 1: little bit weird. But if you're an adult and that's 229 00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:29,800 Speaker 1: how you get your jolly's and that makes you happier, 230 00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:32,720 Speaker 1: go for it, right. But for you to take the 231 00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:36,800 Speaker 1: next step and say, and you have to acknowledge that 232 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:39,480 Speaker 1: I am a woman and there's no difference between me 233 00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:42,439 Speaker 1: and any other woman is a bridge that most people 234 00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:45,960 Speaker 1: aren't willing to cross. And now we're actually having that 235 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:49,600 Speaker 1: fight over what I think oftentimes is mental illness. Frankly, 236 00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 1: but again, if you're an adult and you want to 237 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:55,360 Speaker 1: live that way, that's you're right. But don't expect me 238 00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:58,240 Speaker 1: to have to tell you, oh, you're an actual woman, 239 00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:00,840 Speaker 1: because you're not your dude sending to be a chick. 240 00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:03,640 Speaker 1: T Mobile just confirm they're one of the companies that 241 00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:06,600 Speaker 1: was recently targeted by Chinese hackers to gain access to 242 00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:10,640 Speaker 1: valuable information.

I wanted 265 00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:21,640 Speaker 1: to make sure I'd mentioned this because I think we 266 00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:25,360 Speaker 1: discussed it on the program back when it happened. Spirit 267 00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:30,920 Speaker 1: Airlines has filed for bankruptcy. Why does that matter? Okay, 268 00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:33,720 Speaker 1: some of you might fly Spirit Airlines. It's the holidays. 269 00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:35,880 Speaker 1: They say that they're going to have their full flight 270 00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:41,000 Speaker 1: of normal airplanes and everything else going on. They're not canceling. 271 00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:43,960 Speaker 1: But I do think this is significant, and I haven't 272 00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:47,440 Speaker 1: heard very many people talking about it. They tried to 273 00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:52,480 Speaker 1: merge with Jet Blue and Team correct me if I'm wrong. 274 00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:54,800 Speaker 1: I believe it was Jet Blue that they were merging with. 275 00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:59,480 Speaker 1: And if you were a Spirit Airlines shareholder, you stood 276 00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:03,960 Speaker 1: to make a lot of money over that merger. A 277 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:09,800 Speaker 1: federal judge looked at that merger said this will hurt consumers, 278 00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:15,000 Speaker 1: it will create antitrust related issues, and he refused to 279 00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:19,000 Speaker 1: allow the merger to happen. And now Spirit Airlines has 280 00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:23,360 Speaker 1: gone bankrupt and every shareholder has been completely wiped out. 281 00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:27,840 Speaker 1: In other words, that judge was one billion percent wrong 282 00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:32,760 Speaker 1: and that company doesn't exist now because he said the 283 00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:36,800 Speaker 1: merger can't happen. Now, Buck, how does that federal judge 284 00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:40,680 Speaker 1: get to keep his job. We let one dude who 285 00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:45,000 Speaker 1: nobody elected sit and look at all the evidence, and 286 00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:50,440 Speaker 1: that federal judge got everything completely wrong, wiped out billions 287 00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:55,600 Speaker 1: of dollars in shareholder equity, and now there is absolutely 288 00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:58,520 Speaker 1: nothing that happens to him at all. I don't know 289 00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:02,120 Speaker 1: how you could be more wrong than to say, hey, 290 00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:05,600 Speaker 1: consumers are not gonna benefit if this merger happens. Well, 291 00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:10,199 Speaker 1: now the entire company is bankrupt. Why are there no 292 00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:15,160 Speaker 1: consequences when people get things objectively wrong? Shouldn't something happen 293 00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:17,240 Speaker 1: to this guy like the judge when you when you 294 00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:20,320 Speaker 1: get he could be impeached. You couldn't repeach a judge. 295 00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:21,440 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't know if this would be the 296 00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:24,960 Speaker 1: big I mean, unfortunately, being a moron usually isn't considered 297 00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:28,160 Speaker 1: being an impeachable offense. Otherwise be a lot of people 298 00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:31,840 Speaker 1: getting impeached. Uh, but I mean for multi billion dollars 299 00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:34,479 Speaker 1: of shareholder equity to just be wiped out and this 300 00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:37,040 Speaker 1: guy to be completely wrong. We saw the aversion of 301 00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:39,600 Speaker 1: this not quite as not disastrous and with a happy ending. 302 00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 1: But remember when they Elon's pay package for Tesla, Yes, 303 00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:47,880 Speaker 1: was based on metrics that he hit that. The shareholders 304 00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:50,439 Speaker 1: were like, he's never gonna hit those he did. Some 305 00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:53,960 Speaker 1: judge in Delaware was like, he shouldn't get that money. Yes, No, 306 00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:56,680 Speaker 1: the judiciary needs to be rated. It's a bigger conversation. Well, 307 00:17:56,840 --> 00:17:59,040 Speaker 1: we can come back to it. Look, the holidays are 308 00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:02,840 Speaker 1: quickly approaching, and here is a really cool gift idea, 309 00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:07,080 Speaker 1: my friends.

And I think one 333 00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:19,680 Speaker 1: of the clays as we see this, one of the 334 00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:22,600 Speaker 1: realities that's going to continue unfold is they're going to 335 00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:25,800 Speaker 1: have to try new things, and that's going to be 336 00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:29,639 Speaker 1: more people of I think, different opinions who are going 337 00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:32,720 Speaker 1: on their airwaves. Do we didn't play the Scott Jennings 338 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:36,200 Speaker 1: clip already? Did we talked about played Scott Jennings against Stelter. 339 00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:39,400 Speaker 1: There may be more than one Scott Jennings clip though, yes, 340 00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:42,840 Speaker 1: okay not that's all right. So here here's a here's 341 00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:46,159 Speaker 1: one that I think is well. One thing that is 342 00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:50,880 Speaker 1: very much playing out right now is the the change 343 00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:53,760 Speaker 1: in the whole media landscape that has resulted from X. 344 00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:56,760 Speaker 1: I mentioned this before, so this has cut thirteen CNN's 345 00:19:56,800 --> 00:20:01,159 Speaker 1: Harry Entin and this is remember this changing everything because 346 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:04,720 Speaker 1: now It's like you can find out easily. Do you 347 00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:06,880 Speaker 1: want to know what Biden actually said when they're saying 348 00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:09,359 Speaker 1: it's cheap fakes? You go on X, you search and 349 00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:11,600 Speaker 1: the video will pop up right. I mean, the algorithm 350 00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:13,640 Speaker 1: on X is working very well in terms of giving 351 00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:15,920 Speaker 1: you the top hit of whatever it is. You want 352 00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:17,960 Speaker 1: to see the original video, You'll see the original video. 353 00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 1: You want to see commentary from people that you can trust, 354 00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:24,200 Speaker 1: because everything they tell you up to this point has 355 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:27,440 Speaker 1: been true, like Clay and Buck for example. You can 356 00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:30,360 Speaker 1: go on X and find it right away. And that 357 00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:34,320 Speaker 1: has these second order effects across the media. They can't 358 00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:37,600 Speaker 1: get they cannot do the Hunter laptop suppression thing anymore. 359 00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:42,080 Speaker 1: They cannot shut down masks don't work like they did 360 00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:43,680 Speaker 1: to me on Twitter back in the day, when you 361 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:46,160 Speaker 1: would say masks don't work, you'd get either shadow band 362 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:49,560 Speaker 1: or suspended. You know, they can't do these things anymore. 363 00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:51,679 Speaker 1: And X is a big part of it. It's changing 364 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:53,720 Speaker 1: the whole media landscape. This is Harry Anton. It's c 365 00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:56,359 Speaker 1: an end pointing out that, by the way, it's also 366 00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:59,199 Speaker 1: the most bipartisan sight, meaning that it's a place that 367 00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:01,240 Speaker 1: we're suppose I used to think that this is good 368 00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:03,800 Speaker 1: for the country to have a town hall, a town 369 00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:04,800 Speaker 1: square play thirteen. 370 00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:07,720 Speaker 4: Back in twenty twenty two, sixty five percent of those 371 00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:10,760 Speaker 4: who regularly use Twitter slash x for news we're Democrats, 372 00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:13,679 Speaker 4: just thirty one percent were Republicans. Looked at where we 373 00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:15,800 Speaker 4: are today, just a completely different picture. 374 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:17,640 Speaker 1: Now it's basically split. 375 00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:21,080 Speaker 4: Between Democrats at forty eight percent Republicans at forty seven percent. 376 00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:23,400 Speaker 4: And what I should know is this, now, this new 377 00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:27,960 Speaker 4: overall makeup matches the overall electorate far better and more 378 00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:31,000 Speaker 4: than that. Look at where mister Musk's net worth is 379 00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:33,520 Speaker 4: today versus where it was just two months ago. He 380 00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:35,960 Speaker 4: is the richest man in the world by far. Two 381 00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:38,199 Speaker 4: months ago, look at this, his net worth was two 382 00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:40,560 Speaker 4: hundred and fifty two billion. Looked at where we are 383 00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:43,720 Speaker 4: today three hundred and fourteen billion. He is by far 384 00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:47,119 Speaker 4: the richest man ever to be on this planet. So, yes, 385 00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:50,399 Speaker 4: he's not as popular. Yes, Twitter slash x perhaps is 386 00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:52,880 Speaker 4: not as popular, but it's a much different platform, one 387 00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:56,240 Speaker 4: that more represents Elon Musk, let's say, political instincts, and 388 00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:57,880 Speaker 4: he is now a far wealthy man. 389 00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:00,360 Speaker 1: I have a lot of feelings on this, like one 390 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:01,960 Speaker 1: is first of all, Elon Musk has done more to 391 00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:04,680 Speaker 1: save free speech online than any other person alive, So 392 00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:09,920 Speaker 1: he deserves a tremendous amount of credit for that. Also, Clay, 393 00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:13,240 Speaker 1: this is what we were promised social media was going 394 00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:15,800 Speaker 1: to be twenty years ago. It was going to be 395 00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:21,840 Speaker 1: a platform for the exchange of media, ideas, videos, et cetera. 396 00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:24,960 Speaker 1: And it was really in the Trump era that you 397 00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:28,119 Speaker 1: saw it go all in on. No, this is a 398 00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:32,879 Speaker 1: vehicle for Democrat partisan propaganda. X has brought balance to it. 399 00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:35,119 Speaker 1: Notice also all these Democrats that have stopped using it 400 00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:37,399 Speaker 1: because they needed a rigged game, They needed a rigged 401 00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:39,840 Speaker 1: playing field. You know what I used to have. Occasionally 402 00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:41,800 Speaker 1: they would they would do like a dog pile of 403 00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:44,160 Speaker 1: me back in the day, all these like you know, 404 00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:47,400 Speaker 1: C list commentators and even actors and things with blue 405 00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:49,960 Speaker 1: checks when blue checks were you know, only for famous people. 406 00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:51,720 Speaker 1: And all of a sudden I have all these people 407 00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:53,760 Speaker 1: like getting angry at me and trashing me, like how 408 00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:56,720 Speaker 1: did this happen? That never happens anymore because our team, 409 00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:59,440 Speaker 1: our people can weigh in and see it as well. 410 00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:03,639 Speaker 1: The whole the game was rigged. I think it's not 411 00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:06,119 Speaker 1: only that the whole game was rigged. It's that in 412 00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:10,680 Speaker 1: the wake of Trump winning, there is a palpable fear 413 00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:15,760 Speaker 1: that there is going to be investigations. And everybody's got 414 00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:19,040 Speaker 1: magnifying glasses out now, and they're looking at all these 415 00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:21,960 Speaker 1: algorithms and they're saying, how fair were they? And I'll 416 00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:24,840 Speaker 1: give you an example of what I'm seeing, Buck, at OutKick. 417 00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:30,960 Speaker 1: Our traffic at OutKick dot com has skyrocketed in October 418 00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:35,920 Speaker 1: and November on Google, on Facebook, on so many other 419 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,560 Speaker 1: platforms out there. And I think what's happened is, now 420 00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:42,600 Speaker 1: that Trump has won the election, there is a fear 421 00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:47,000 Speaker 1: that investigations are going to uncover just how much of 422 00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:49,040 Speaker 1: a rig job has been going on at Google. And 423 00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:52,600 Speaker 1: remember we said this and other tech platforms like that. 424 00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:56,439 Speaker 1: You and I said this was maybe the most significant 425 00:23:56,480 --> 00:24:01,479 Speaker 1: aspect of Elon buying Twitter back, and he did, was 426 00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:07,800 Speaker 1: it was going to force other algorithms to be public 427 00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:10,040 Speaker 1: in a way that they had not in the past. 428 00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:13,640 Speaker 1: And what they were doing was rigging things in such 429 00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:16,960 Speaker 1: a way that the far left wing benefited. You think 430 00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:20,000 Speaker 1: it's coincidental, Buck, Just think about this. When's the last 431 00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:23,920 Speaker 1: time you saw a viral story about a police shooting. 432 00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:30,040 Speaker 1: Basically since George Floyd, we've now gone. I thought we'd 433 00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:32,720 Speaker 1: get one in the run up to this election to 434 00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:35,280 Speaker 1: try to, you know, drum up angst and try to 435 00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:38,840 Speaker 1: drive turnout we've now gone. I was just a big 436 00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:41,720 Speaker 1: part of this class body cams. So many cops have 437 00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:43,720 Speaker 1: body cams now, but you know, you find out most 438 00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:45,919 Speaker 1: of the time when the cops shoot somebody ninety nine 439 00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:48,199 Speaker 1: percent of the time, and the cops shoot somebody, they 440 00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:51,520 Speaker 1: should have shot them. Yeah, they're in danger. I think 441 00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:55,120 Speaker 1: that has helped, But I also think this idea that 442 00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:58,760 Speaker 1: police are the enemy over the last four years has 443 00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:03,399 Speaker 1: gone away, has gone up. I guess probably the last 444 00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:06,919 Speaker 1: time there was a viral video of police misbehavior, correct 445 00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:10,359 Speaker 1: me if I'm wrong, was Tyree Nichols in Memphis. And 446 00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:12,760 Speaker 1: remember those were all black cops. I was gonna I 447 00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:15,200 Speaker 1: mean you, you jumped right to the end there with nobody. 448 00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:18,359 Speaker 1: Nobody cared about that very much. Isn't that interesting that 449 00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:22,080 Speaker 1: story vanished because the cops were black. And so my 450 00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:25,080 Speaker 1: point on it in general is I think they were 451 00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:29,640 Speaker 1: rigging the system to such an extent that things went 452 00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:33,959 Speaker 1: viral in a way that was not remotely representative of 453 00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:36,840 Speaker 1: what the real world cared. Oh, Clay, I don't think. 454 00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:40,280 Speaker 1: I don't think we know that was happening. I mean, 455 00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:42,320 Speaker 1: Elon has spoken to this. I mean, I agree with 456 00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:44,280 Speaker 1: what you're saying. I'm just saying this isn't a theory. 457 00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:49,520 Speaker 1: There's tons of evidence and I think it's basically a certainty. Now, 458 00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:53,359 Speaker 1: what were what were the eighty percent of people that 459 00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:57,760 Speaker 1: were fired from food are doing? They were actually going 460 00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:01,320 Speaker 1: into the system. Elon, who owned it and has you know, 461 00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:04,560 Speaker 1: super user access because you see anything wants, has spoken 462 00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:06,480 Speaker 1: to this, and he had the Twitter files, and we've 463 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:09,960 Speaker 1: seen some of the Twitter files. Unfortunately, they didn't do 464 00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:11,679 Speaker 1: as good a job I think of highlighting some of 465 00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:13,200 Speaker 1: the important stuff as they could have with that, I 466 00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:15,200 Speaker 1: mean the individuals who did it. But whatever they tried, 467 00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:18,040 Speaker 1: I appreciate that. But there's a little got a little convoluted. 468 00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:24,040 Speaker 1: There were people who were taking action on individual things 469 00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:26,960 Speaker 1: like exactly what we're talking about. Somebody inside Twitter maybe 470 00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:29,400 Speaker 1: that whole little meeting. They probably cry first like oh, 471 00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:31,560 Speaker 1: let's get it all out, you know together, they'd all 472 00:26:31,560 --> 00:26:33,720 Speaker 1: hold each other and have a safe space moment, and 473 00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:36,200 Speaker 1: then they decide what trends and what doesn't trend. This 474 00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:38,400 Speaker 1: is the same thing the New York Times bestseller list. 475 00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:39,720 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, Clay, I know this is a 476 00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:41,800 Speaker 1: sore spot because you sold a lot of books, But 477 00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:45,359 Speaker 1: they really given number two on the nonfiction list based 478 00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:49,080 Speaker 1: on actual number soul actual sales number one. Yes, didn't 479 00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:50,960 Speaker 1: make the top fifteen in the New York Times, I 480 00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:53,520 Speaker 1: mean the New York Times. The New York Times is like, oh, 481 00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:56,000 Speaker 1: you're a conservative book, not going on the list. I mean, 482 00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:57,840 Speaker 1: there are some exceptions to that. There's some people sell 483 00:26:57,960 --> 00:27:00,760 Speaker 1: like you know, and I honestly can't even explain why 484 00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:02,840 Speaker 1: they make those exceptions. Maybe it's who they find too 485 00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:05,120 Speaker 1: offensive and who they are willing to put on the list. 486 00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:09,520 Speaker 1: But generally speaking, that list is garbage because it's not 487 00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:12,280 Speaker 1: really a it's a list of books that sell that 488 00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:16,240 Speaker 1: the New York Times book people like. It's not actually 489 00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:18,920 Speaker 1: a it's not actually a who won the race, it's 490 00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:21,159 Speaker 1: who had the best time in the race that they 491 00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:23,720 Speaker 1: still like. And let's give you an example of that 492 00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:26,240 Speaker 1: book that when my book came out, we sold seventeen 493 00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:29,639 Speaker 1: thousand copies week one. They had books on the New 494 00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:35,000 Speaker 1: York Times bestseller nonfiction list that sold one seventeenth of 495 00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:37,959 Speaker 1: the number of books that I sold that were ranked 496 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:40,720 Speaker 1: as one of the best sellers. It's there is just 497 00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:44,560 Speaker 1: it's a good example of how they can rig the 498 00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:47,520 Speaker 1: game in a way that they see fit. Also, I 499 00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:51,199 Speaker 1: mean honestly, and I know this matters because however you 500 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:53,800 Speaker 1: get your information, if you get your information from radio, 501 00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:55,760 Speaker 1: Thank you very much. We listened to the podcasts of 502 00:27:55,840 --> 00:28:01,080 Speaker 1: this show. I'm talking about the infrastructure of the information 503 00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:05,360 Speaker 1: ecosystem that we have like this. This is the pipes, 504 00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:09,359 Speaker 1: this is the wires. This is what allows us to 505 00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:12,840 Speaker 1: know what's going on. This is why Trump's victory was 506 00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:17,480 Speaker 1: even possible. Right, And I've described this before Clay twenty sixteen, 507 00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:23,919 Speaker 1: Trump in an incredible fashion, essentially piggybacks off of the 508 00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:28,919 Speaker 1: Democrat corporate media thinking that he's a joke, so that 509 00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:31,359 Speaker 1: they run They were running him live on CNN, right, 510 00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:33,760 Speaker 1: they were running him live on CNN taking his rallies. 511 00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:36,440 Speaker 1: Oh haha, so silly. And then of course we all 512 00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:38,680 Speaker 1: found out who got the last laugh when Hillary had 513 00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:42,719 Speaker 1: her tears twenty twenty, they turned it around. They decided 514 00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:46,080 Speaker 1: we're gonna shut down, We're gonna control the infant We're 515 00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:48,200 Speaker 1: gonna use COVID as the excuse. We're gonna control the 516 00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:51,600 Speaker 1: information ecosystem. We're going to shadow band, We're going to 517 00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:54,800 Speaker 1: deep platform. We're going to shut down Amazon web servers 518 00:28:54,800 --> 00:28:58,040 Speaker 1: to get Parlor off the Internet. I've never off the Internet. 519 00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:01,160 Speaker 1: Not justly terrifying what they did this, which was that 520 00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:05,560 Speaker 1: that was a sea change moment, that was a rubicon crossed, 521 00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:10,520 Speaker 1: and Elon realized it, especially when the Babylon b got 522 00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:12,920 Speaker 1: banned from making a joke, a joke that was true 523 00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:14,880 Speaker 1: as well, which is white upset the left so much. 524 00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:19,200 Speaker 1: We now have broken the stranglehold. That doesn't mean they 525 00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:21,280 Speaker 1: don't still have an advantage. They have a huge advantage. 526 00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:23,600 Speaker 1: Doesn't mean they don't still have more platforms and more 527 00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:28,120 Speaker 1: reach Netflix, Amazon, Google. These are huge problems for free speech, 528 00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:31,680 Speaker 1: huge problems for our side going forward. But they used 529 00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:34,240 Speaker 1: to just be able to say nope, done, shut down. 530 00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:37,920 Speaker 1: That has changed now and I think everything that we 531 00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:41,120 Speaker 1: see in the Trump administration going forward will be affected 532 00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:44,520 Speaker 1: by the message and the truth can get out to 533 00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:47,520 Speaker 1: people at least somewhere. And then, as I say it, felt, 534 00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:48,840 Speaker 1: you know, if you're just listening to your you know, 535 00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:50,840 Speaker 1: you're listening to the local radio guy in the morning, 536 00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:54,280 Speaker 1: or you're a podcast listener. You still watch you know, 537 00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:58,160 Speaker 1: TV news that is affected by the fact that people 538 00:29:58,160 --> 00:30:00,640 Speaker 1: can now get their information from a place that is 539 00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:04,520 Speaker 1: not an entirely rigged game in favor of the Democrat narrative. 540 00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:08,200 Speaker 1: It is. It's massive. I mean, I honestly, I think 541 00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:09,960 Speaker 1: it's one of the biggest pieces of how Trump was 542 00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:12,160 Speaker 1: able to win the election because people were able to 543 00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:14,280 Speaker 1: find out what was really going on. And I think 544 00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:16,440 Speaker 1: it's also important buck as we've got to break here. Remember, 545 00:30:16,520 --> 00:30:22,240 Speaker 1: Elon sees this as the key to allowing multiplanetary life. 546 00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:25,280 Speaker 1: He wants people to be living on Mars, and he 547 00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:29,560 Speaker 1: believes that if we don't have full intellectual freedom, if 548 00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:34,600 Speaker 1: the so called woke mind virus kurtails human advancement, then 549 00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:39,040 Speaker 1: we are as a species doomed to fail. And I 550 00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:41,240 Speaker 1: do think that's really kind of fascinating to think about 551 00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:45,480 Speaker 1: in the context of the larger aspects of why he 552 00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:48,400 Speaker 1: decided he needed to buy Twitter. Also, there's a lot 553 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:51,200 Speaker 1: of people making fun like, oh, he's losing money on Twitter, 554 00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:53,959 Speaker 1: Like do you know that he had founded an AI 555 00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:58,000 Speaker 1: company based partly on the data that is regularly rolling 556 00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:01,920 Speaker 1: through X that is now I believe at over fifty 557 00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:06,040 Speaker 1: billion dollars. In addition to Tesla, in addition to SpaceX, 558 00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:09,480 Speaker 1: in addition to the boring company, he now has Twitter 559 00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:13,800 Speaker 1: and Xai, which is predicated to a large extent on 560 00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:18,240 Speaker 1: all of the tweets populating a new AI service. And 561 00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:21,200 Speaker 1: it is right now looking like it's going to be 562 00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:23,680 Speaker 1: a great business that's going to be worth more than 563 00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:27,080 Speaker 1: he paid for Twitter by itself. So guys kind of 564 00:31:27,080 --> 00:31:30,080 Speaker 1: knows what he's doing.

I thought this 628 00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:39,480 Speaker 1: was interesting. Piers Morgan, to his credit, has a lot 629 00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:42,880 Speaker 1: of people different opinions on his show, which is distributed 630 00:34:42,880 --> 00:34:45,719 Speaker 1: through YouTube to your point, Buck, which has become a 631 00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:49,080 Speaker 1: really prominent place to go out and watch. My kids 632 00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:56,520 Speaker 1: watch YouTube exclusively. Alan Wickman is a incredible conceited dude 633 00:34:56,560 --> 00:34:59,280 Speaker 1: who has all these keys to the election, and he said, 634 00:34:59,719 --> 00:35:02,560 Speaker 1: com La Harris is gonna win his keys never failed. 635 00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:05,680 Speaker 1: He told everybody exactly what was going to happen, and 636 00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:08,360 Speaker 1: then the keys failed. And this is what it sounded 637 00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:11,160 Speaker 1: like when they got going at it, sink Weiger. How 638 00:35:11,160 --> 00:35:13,080 Speaker 1: do you pronounce this guy's last name? I'm not sure? 639 00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:18,359 Speaker 1: Jink j Sees in Turkish are like are are like uh, 640 00:35:18,719 --> 00:35:21,880 Speaker 1: pronounced it like a J, and gee's are pronounced like 641 00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:24,520 Speaker 1: a W, so it's like aird wan and then the 642 00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:26,640 Speaker 1: sea with the weird thing on it is like a J. 643 00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:32,160 Speaker 1: So it's Jenk.

I was right, he was wrong. I 648 00:35:44,520 --> 00:35:50,000 Speaker 1: said he'd lose his keys. 649 00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:50,040 Speaker 5: Wrong, and that's a cheap shot.
