1 00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:03,120 Speaker 1: Second hour of Clay and Buck kicks off. Now, this 2 00:00:03,279 --> 00:00:07,400 Speaker 1: fantastic program that you're listening to here, Some even say fabulous. 3 00:00:07,640 --> 00:00:10,000 Speaker 1: Some people are saying thank you for being here with us. 4 00:00:10,520 --> 00:00:15,120 Speaker 1: We have this story in the New York Times, which 5 00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:19,080 Speaker 1: means that there's something going on here. Why now, Why 6 00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:23,639 Speaker 1: is it that all of a sudden you have the 7 00:00:23,720 --> 00:00:29,320 Speaker 1: New York Times writing that, you know, they really messed 8 00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:33,480 Speaker 1: up on that immigration thing under Biden's administration. They they 9 00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:42,560 Speaker 1: really and the explanation is essentially that it was a mistake, right. 10 00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:49,760 Speaker 1: The explanation is that Biden's immigration policy fell victim to 11 00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:55,360 Speaker 1: other priorities like COVID and the economy. Here is this 12 00:00:55,480 --> 00:01:02,240 Speaker 1: story how Biden ignored warnings and lost Americans' faith in immigration. 13 00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:07,319 Speaker 1: The Democratic president and as top advisors rejected recommendations that 14 00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:09,800 Speaker 1: could have eased the border crisis and help return Donald 15 00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:12,640 Speaker 1: Trump to the White House. There's a lot going on 16 00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:14,760 Speaker 1: in this piece, and there's a real I want to 17 00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:18,360 Speaker 1: also get into not only how they're trying to message 18 00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:23,479 Speaker 1: this thing, but Clay also how it is or what 19 00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:26,720 Speaker 1: it is that they're trying to accomplish with this, because 20 00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:30,800 Speaker 1: they're already thinking forward to twenty twenty six the midterms, 21 00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:34,320 Speaker 1: and remember, in their minds, if they can just get 22 00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:38,360 Speaker 1: the House, it effectively pumps the brakes on the Trump agenda. 23 00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:41,000 Speaker 1: And then we just get into a presidential election cycle 24 00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:44,560 Speaker 1: and everything, you know, everything changes at some level in 25 00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:47,560 Speaker 1: their minds politically if they can just pull that off. 26 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 1: So they view the stakes as very high. The stakes 27 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:54,000 Speaker 1: are very high, and they're willing to do absolutely anything 28 00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:57,240 Speaker 1: to try to get Democrats back in control, and even 29 00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:00,160 Speaker 1: if that means throwing some Democrats under the bus. Clay, 30 00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:02,680 Speaker 1: you go through this part of this is I just 31 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:04,840 Speaker 1: want us to take a victory lot. We've always saw immigration, 32 00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:07,320 Speaker 1: border crime, immigration, border crime. We've been talking about this 33 00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 1: for the whole time we've been doing the show, and 34 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 1: specifically on immigration, we told you it was gonna be 35 00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 1: a huge issue in this last election, which it was. 36 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:19,600 Speaker 1: I remember that was one of the lead things, Clay. 37 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:21,919 Speaker 1: I was talking on the Bill Maher show right before 38 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 1: the election, and even Bill Maher looked at me and 39 00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:26,840 Speaker 1: he's like, they completely screwed up the immigration thing. He 40 00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:28,440 Speaker 1: didn't use that word, he's a different word, but he said, 41 00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 1: they completely mess that up as badly as it could 42 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,960 Speaker 1: be messed up. But what you have to remember here, 43 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:36,800 Speaker 1: and they go through all of this, they talk about 44 00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:42,400 Speaker 1: how oh they were distracted, and no this was known 45 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:47,519 Speaker 1: the whole time. They decided to continue to let this happen. 46 00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 1: People who understood the system. Clay told Biden, Hey, this 47 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 1: is gonna get really bad and really out of control, 48 00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:59,400 Speaker 1: just so you know, I mean they say chaos then 49 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:04,639 Speaker 1: paral year one, that's what they talk about. And the 50 00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:09,280 Speaker 1: Biden response was to put Kamala Harris in charge as 51 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:12,080 Speaker 1: the borders are, which if you wanted something to be 52 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:15,760 Speaker 1: completely ineffective, putting Kamala in charge probably a good idea. 53 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 1: So you know, in that sense it worked exactly as intended. 54 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:24,400 Speaker 1: They talked about changing the root causes. People even forget this. 55 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 1: They go through this in the article that Kamala was 56 00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:30,880 Speaker 1: supposed to address the root causes of migration in Central America. Oh, 57 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 1: I don't know, because Central American countries are poor, dysfunctional, 58 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 1: and corrupt and not very nice places to live, with 59 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:39,600 Speaker 1: some exceptions. And America is the greatest country in the 60 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:42,080 Speaker 1: history of the world. So how exactly are you going 61 00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:45,080 Speaker 1: to convince people that if they can come here, they'd 62 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 1: rather stay in Honduras. That was idiotic, And I think Clay, 63 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 1: really what this comes down to is that they want 64 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 1: to change the narrative. It's so bad for them on 65 00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 1: a legal immigration that Democrats in twenty twenty six want 66 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 1: to go back to. We believe even a secure border too. 67 00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 1: Biden made mistakes. They don't want people to realize. No, 68 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:07,840 Speaker 1: that's exactly. They wanted ten million plus in legals to 69 00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 1: flood the country because now they're going to be part 70 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 1: of the congressional apportionment, part of the They're gonna have 71 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,600 Speaker 1: kids here, they're gonna raise their kids to hopefully vote Democrat, 72 00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:20,880 Speaker 1: et cetera, et cetera, and of course not nationalize, naturalize, 73 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:23,119 Speaker 1: and amnesty everybody over time. 74 00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, and this is why the Supreme Court decision on 75 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:32,240 Speaker 2: birthright citizenship is so important. I always go to what 76 00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:36,320 Speaker 2: causes this to occur? And the answer is two things. 77 00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:40,560 Speaker 2: If you want to know, Kamala Harris. The root cause, Yes, 78 00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:43,280 Speaker 2: our country is way better than the other country. That's 79 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:46,159 Speaker 2: the root cause. But the root cause of why it's 80 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:49,359 Speaker 2: better is one, the jobs pay better. 81 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 1: You can make way. 82 00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:54,040 Speaker 2: More money if you come to the United States than 83 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:56,800 Speaker 2: you can in almost any other country in the world. 84 00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 2: And I always like this analogy because I think it 85 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:02,239 Speaker 2: brings it home. If the United States was a crappy 86 00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:05,160 Speaker 2: country and if you could make ten x your money 87 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:08,560 Speaker 2: in Canada, tons of Americans would be trying to cross 88 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 2: into Canada to get jobs there. 89 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 1: So one is we. 90 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:14,720 Speaker 2: Have built the best economy that's ever existed in the 91 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 2: history of the world, that is the United States has 92 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:21,039 Speaker 2: and it acts as a magnet to draw people all 93 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 2: over the world, which is why you actually need to restrict. 94 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:26,920 Speaker 1: The number of people who are able to come into 95 00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 1: the country. Right, that's one. Two. 96 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:32,440 Speaker 2: In addition to creating the best economy in the history 97 00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:35,719 Speaker 2: of the world, we have also I think wedded it 98 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:41,480 Speaker 2: with a disastrous policy decision, which is birthright by soil citizenship. 99 00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:44,120 Speaker 2: So if you come to the United States, even if 100 00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:47,440 Speaker 2: you come here illegally, and you have a child in 101 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:50,680 Speaker 2: the United States, that child becomes a citizen. That should 102 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 2: not exist and we should do away with it. And 103 00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 2: people out there really don't dive into the root cause 104 00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:01,600 Speaker 2: of why that occurred. It will because of the colonization 105 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:04,359 Speaker 2: and because in the olden days, if you were in 106 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 2: Great Britain and you were trying to convince someone, hey, 107 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:11,679 Speaker 2: go to these thirteen American colonies, move your family there. 108 00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:15,160 Speaker 2: You had to let people know, but your kids can 109 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:18,760 Speaker 2: always come back to England. The same thing happened all 110 00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 2: over the New World because people were concerned that you 111 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:26,440 Speaker 2: couldn't go back to Spain, or you couldn't go back 112 00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:29,760 Speaker 2: to England, or you couldn't go back to Portugal or 113 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:34,719 Speaker 2: whatever country out there. Was driving the exploration of the 114 00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:37,640 Speaker 2: New World. And so that's the reason this exists. But 115 00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 2: and so this is I think of all of the 116 00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:44,160 Speaker 2: decisions that the Supreme Court is going to issue, the 117 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:46,960 Speaker 2: one that I think could have the most long lasting 118 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:50,920 Speaker 2: and transformative impact would be if they did say, you 119 00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:54,480 Speaker 2: know what, there is no constitutional right to birthright citizenship. 120 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:54,920 Speaker 1: Now. 121 00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:58,000 Speaker 2: They would have to make it going forward, because I 122 00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:01,520 Speaker 2: think the challenges of making it run active. Yeah, I mean, 123 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:04,680 Speaker 2: you got it, but going forward, you would at least 124 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:07,760 Speaker 2: eliminate the idea that Chinese people are going to hop 125 00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:10,560 Speaker 2: on a plane when they're eight months pregnant, come to 126 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:12,960 Speaker 2: the United States, have a baby, and that baby has 127 00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:16,840 Speaker 2: dual Chinese and American citizenship. They're gaming the system in 128 00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:19,920 Speaker 2: a way that historically you couldn't nobody could time a 129 00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:23,240 Speaker 2: pregnancy and come to the United States to have birthright 130 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:26,120 Speaker 2: by soil citizenship as the result. 131 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:29,800 Speaker 1: Well, also it's illegal to do that. So the hotels, 132 00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:33,440 Speaker 1: the birth tourism hotels, for example in California, where this 133 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:37,840 Speaker 1: is common with Asian visitors, Yep, they get in trouble, 134 00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 1: they get prosecuted for this. And yet usually you can't 135 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:45,360 Speaker 1: profit from crime. But clearly the offspring of the people 136 00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:48,120 Speaker 1: who are doing this are very and therefore in the 137 00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 1: family too, they are very much profiting from it. Remember, 138 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:56,040 Speaker 1: having the anchor here then means that you can sponsor 139 00:07:56,640 --> 00:08:01,600 Speaker 1: what they call family reunification. Most of our immigrations. You're 140 00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:03,480 Speaker 1: being lied to about all of us all the time. Okay, 141 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:05,080 Speaker 1: you have to remember this. You're being lied to. We 142 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:06,760 Speaker 1: are not taking the best, in the brightest, We are 143 00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:10,520 Speaker 1: not taking people based on skills. It is a giant 144 00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:16,640 Speaker 1: scam and essentially one huge welfare operation for the Third World. 145 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 1: So as long as you are from a poor, predominantly 146 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:24,240 Speaker 1: non white country somewhere else in the world, you've got 147 00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:27,640 Speaker 1: a good shot at coming into America. If you know 148 00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:31,240 Speaker 1: how the game is played, you know, if you're a 149 00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 1: you know, a neurosurgeon from Sweden. We don't need you, 150 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:37,080 Speaker 1: you know, like no interest. But if you're coming here 151 00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:40,440 Speaker 1: from one of the poorest countries, war torn country, whatever, 152 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:43,400 Speaker 1: or even just a place that's totally dysfunctional, we want you. 153 00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 1: That sounds great. That's the way the system has been running. 154 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:50,080 Speaker 1: Mostly it's it's people who are getting through the lottery system. 155 00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:53,080 Speaker 1: Think about that. What do we have a lottery? Well, yes, 156 00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:57,560 Speaker 1: well why are we giving away American americanness, like like 157 00:08:57,600 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 1: we you know, give away a pot roast whose idea 158 00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:03,000 Speaker 1: was this? We have a lottery system, and then we 159 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:06,200 Speaker 1: also have reunification. Oh so if you get here through 160 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:09,320 Speaker 1: any of these mechanisms, then you have chained migration, and 161 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:11,959 Speaker 1: you can sponsor other people in your family to come here, 162 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:14,200 Speaker 1: and so on and so forth. The whole system has 163 00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,560 Speaker 1: gotten turned upside down to the last, well since nineteen 164 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:19,559 Speaker 1: sixty five, the Immigration and Naturalization Act. So what's going on? 165 00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:22,079 Speaker 1: I can't do the math, you know, sixty years and 166 00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:24,680 Speaker 1: no it is sixty years. Yeah, that's right. So Clay, 167 00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:27,960 Speaker 1: it's time that we have a total top down look 168 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 1: not only at a legal immigration, but at legal immigration 169 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:33,920 Speaker 1: in this country and start to do what we've been 170 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:36,600 Speaker 1: told is being done, but has been a lie all along, 171 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 1: which is actually have this be for immigration first of all, 172 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:43,920 Speaker 1: a lot less. We need some assimilation in this country. 173 00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:47,720 Speaker 1: We need some America time for all of us. Everybody's 174 00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:49,320 Speaker 1: here as American. We get to spend a little more 175 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:51,640 Speaker 1: time together, figure out some things. What you see in 176 00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:55,560 Speaker 1: the Somali community, which we'll talk about more. With the 177 00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:59,520 Speaker 1: Somali American community being part of this huge fraud ongoing, 178 00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 1: many peace people, lots of folks involved there. This is 179 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:05,760 Speaker 1: not a well assimilated community yet. Okay, we need some 180 00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:09,120 Speaker 1: time to assimilate the people who are already here, and 181 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:12,199 Speaker 1: americanness needs to be something that we all agree on 182 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 1: and is spreading more freely, shall we say? 183 00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:15,840 Speaker 3: So? 184 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:18,160 Speaker 1: This is where the whole Biden thing though, it's just 185 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:22,640 Speaker 1: so galling. Everything that we said all along was true. Yes, 186 00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:24,559 Speaker 1: everything that we said on the show about immigration for 187 00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:27,160 Speaker 1: years and people, well, it's terrible. And the porter's not open. 188 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 1: The porter was absolutely open. 189 00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:32,959 Speaker 2: It was wide open. It was wide open. It was intentional. 190 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:36,840 Speaker 2: And here is the diabolical aspect of all of this. 191 00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:41,439 Speaker 2: They knew that they were making a generational decision. I 192 00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:44,079 Speaker 2: don't know that Joe Biden really understood it, because I 193 00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:47,280 Speaker 2: think Biden was so out to lunch he didn't understand 194 00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:52,640 Speaker 2: anything that was going on. But the Biden puppeteers recognized 195 00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:59,800 Speaker 2: that they were bringing it in twenty million right now, 196 00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:03,720 Speaker 2: million illegals who they are gambling will at some point 197 00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:08,200 Speaker 2: become citizens and end up benefiting them. Now, I think 198 00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 2: one of the parts of this political calculus that nobody 199 00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:16,440 Speaker 2: really dove into buck was Trump won Hispanic men and 200 00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 2: he narrowly lost Hispanic women in the twenty twenty four election. 201 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:25,000 Speaker 2: These are legal Hispanic voters, and obviously the Hispanic vote, 202 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 2: as you know, living in Miami, there's a big difference 203 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 2: between somebody who's from Venezuela and Honduras or. 204 00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:33,000 Speaker 1: You know, Like you don't want to get that one wrong, 205 00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:35,760 Speaker 1: let me tell you. They do not. They do not 206 00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:39,520 Speaker 1: like when people assume that Hispanics are like this monolith 207 00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:42,280 Speaker 1: that everyone's the same. No, no, no, no, no. Clay beyond that, 208 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:44,199 Speaker 1: I just you reminded me of something. The piece is 209 00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:48,160 Speaker 1: really important the Democrats, and they're always trying to massage 210 00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 1: this like, oh no, it was a mistake. They weren't 211 00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:53,280 Speaker 1: focused on it. But also they admit, they say they 212 00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:57,160 Speaker 1: totally the Democrat and I mean the very top like 213 00:11:57,200 --> 00:12:00,840 Speaker 1: the Biden White House, the claims and the other people that, 214 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:03,800 Speaker 1: you know, they're thrown under the bus. Now. They all 215 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:07,440 Speaker 1: thought that Hispanics would be with them on this. Yes, 216 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:11,640 Speaker 1: what they didn't realize is that US citizens of Hispanic 217 00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:15,160 Speaker 1: origin or ancestry were like, what are you doing giving 218 00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:17,000 Speaker 1: this a way to everybody who arrived five minutes ago 219 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:20,680 Speaker 1: who speaks no English. They didn't understand the dynamic. They 220 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:23,080 Speaker 1: didn't understand that Cuban Americans who were like, you know, 221 00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:27,040 Speaker 1: I'm second third generation, we fled Castro, we came here legally, 222 00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:30,040 Speaker 1: and you're going to treat someone who shows up from 223 00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:34,400 Speaker 1: you know, Mayan mar or a Burma or whatever, you know, 224 00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:36,880 Speaker 1: as they're as American as apple pie, even if they 225 00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:40,080 Speaker 1: just ran across the border illegally. Hispanic community did not 226 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:41,120 Speaker 1: actually go for that. 227 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:44,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, and again, I think one of the biggest challenges 228 00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:48,320 Speaker 2: we have here is the lack of You could talk 229 00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:51,440 Speaker 2: about the you should if you're moving to America. 230 00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:54,920 Speaker 1: Number one rule should be you believe. 231 00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:56,960 Speaker 2: America is the greatest country in the history of the world, 232 00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 2: and you want to ensure that we preserve what made 233 00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:01,880 Speaker 2: America the greatest country in the history of the world, 234 00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:07,560 Speaker 2: and a knowledge of Western civilization is integral there, and 235 00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:12,880 Speaker 2: an embrace of basic values of Western civilization that doesn't exist, 236 00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 2: that doesn't exist with many of these new immigrants, which 237 00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:18,880 Speaker 2: for people out there who say, well, what about when 238 00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 2: people were coming from Italy or flooding the country from 239 00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:26,920 Speaker 2: Ireland or all over Europe back in the day, those 240 00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:31,400 Speaker 2: people overwhelmingly were raised in a Western civilizational background that 241 00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:38,360 Speaker 2: acknowledges basic human rights, among other things, and the immense 242 00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:41,840 Speaker 2: benefits to society of the concepts of Western civilization. 243 00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:44,199 Speaker 1: I remember I went, I went a long time ago 244 00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:47,079 Speaker 1: to the Tenement Museum in New York City. I mean 245 00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:50,040 Speaker 1: over over a decade ago. But it's a very uh 246 00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:53,560 Speaker 1: it's a kind of harrowing experience in some ways because 247 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:55,760 Speaker 1: you're in all these small rooms in these buildings. It's 248 00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:57,840 Speaker 1: the same building that these immigrants would have come to. 249 00:13:58,080 --> 00:13:59,960 Speaker 1: And this is clay in the era of Ellis Island 250 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:02,760 Speaker 1: and everything else. You would have a family of eight 251 00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 1: living in what is essentially one room. You had no 252 00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:12,920 Speaker 1: welfare services, no check, no free rent, no free food, nothing. 253 00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 1: There would be outbreaks of typhus, and they would have 254 00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:20,440 Speaker 1: they would just be stacking dead bodies out on the 255 00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:22,800 Speaker 1: street with no one even coming to claim them in 256 00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:25,120 Speaker 1: a timely fashion. Because these immigrants had no money, They 257 00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:28,480 Speaker 1: had nothing. This is true of the Irish, the Chinese, 258 00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:31,280 Speaker 1: you know that were showing up in the the Italians, 259 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:33,520 Speaker 1: the Jewish who were showing up in New York City. 260 00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:37,280 Speaker 1: And people want to compare that to like now you get, 261 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:40,680 Speaker 1: you know, free plane tickets or wherever you show up 262 00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 1: there's immigrant services. You're getting an EBT card. Basically, you're 263 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:48,040 Speaker 1: getting a prepaid cash card. You go into any emergency room, 264 00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:50,280 Speaker 1: you get absolutely world class medical care. You're not going 265 00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:52,280 Speaker 1: to pay a dollar. I mean you could on the list. 266 00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:55,920 Speaker 1: We're the world's welfare state. We can't do this, everybody. 267 00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:57,080 Speaker 1: We can't afford it. 268 00:14:57,640 --> 00:14:59,800 Speaker 2: And all you have to do is sit back rationally 269 00:14:59,840 --> 00:15:02,320 Speaker 2: and say, yeah, that makes total sense. I understand why 270 00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:03,960 Speaker 2: everybody tried to do it, but we have to limit 271 00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:06,160 Speaker 2: the incentives to get people to do it because they're 272 00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:09,160 Speaker 2: taking advantage of us. We can't continue it forever. Cold 273 00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:11,760 Speaker 2: comes quickly to Ukraine this time of year. Temperatures in 274 00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:14,720 Speaker 2: many of the towns and cities, much like Chicago Green Bay, 275 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:18,600 Speaker 2: for instance, For elderly residents like Olga, it can be deadly. 276 00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:21,400 Speaker 2: Olga seventy nine years old. She lives in a small village, 277 00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:25,360 Speaker 2: no reliable heating, let alone indoor plumbing. She's just one 278 00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:29,480 Speaker 2: of the many elderly Jewish Ukrainians. Our sponsor, the International 279 00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:32,560 Speaker 2: Fellowship of Christians and Jews, is looking after this winter. 280 00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:36,200 Speaker 2: Her meager pension not enough to cover food, medicine and heat. 281 00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:40,160 Speaker 2: But thanks to the IFCJ, Olga receives a box with food, 282 00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:43,600 Speaker 2: emergency lighting, and a warm blanket. This aid is a 283 00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:46,760 Speaker 2: life saving gift for someone like Olga, and the visit 284 00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:51,120 Speaker 2: from Fellowship staff reminds her she's not forgotten. Now, as 285 00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:55,040 Speaker 2: another brutal winner begins, thousands of elderly Jews like Olga 286 00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:59,120 Speaker 2: are praying for a miracle.

Uh, do you 300 00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:49,040 Speaker 2: want to dive in Buck to the Marjorie Taylor Green 301 00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:55,400 Speaker 2: decision that is out there sixty minutes. I'm I'm kind 302 00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:58,840 Speaker 2: of intrigued by what's going on there. 303 00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:01,880 Speaker 1: Trump teed off on You're just I try, you know, 304 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:04,800 Speaker 1: I just we there's so many food fights going on 305 00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:07,199 Speaker 1: on the right these days. I just want us. I 306 00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:08,880 Speaker 1: kind of want us to be a food fight free 307 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:10,880 Speaker 1: zone here. But if you want to talk about this one, 308 00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:13,480 Speaker 1: because when it involves Trump, it's different, he's the president, 309 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:15,520 Speaker 1: but in general, people like, why aren't you weighing in 310 00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:17,800 Speaker 1: on this person and that person. It's like, because we're 311 00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:19,480 Speaker 1: trying to talk about the world and what matters to 312 00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:21,920 Speaker 1: all of you, not you know, I think the food 313 00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:24,879 Speaker 1: fight is the best analogy for this. I do think 314 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:29,600 Speaker 1: it is interesting in this context, Marjorie Taylor Green and 315 00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:31,840 Speaker 1: all of you could probably see this. We had her 316 00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:34,520 Speaker 1: on the show several times, so I'm not trying to 317 00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:38,560 Speaker 1: integrate her in any way. But they labeled her as 318 00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:42,760 Speaker 1: a kook that you basically couldn't even pay attention to. 319 00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:46,840 Speaker 1: She was a QAnon moron, was the way that they 320 00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:50,199 Speaker 1: labeled her in legacy media as soon as she started 321 00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:53,880 Speaker 1: to criticize Trump. Now she gets a sixty minutes profile. 322 00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:58,520 Speaker 2: It really is indicative I think of how this is 323 00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:01,919 Speaker 2: playing out and being treated in general. But if you 324 00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:04,280 Speaker 2: are starting to feel a little bit like you don't 325 00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:07,600 Speaker 2: have the energy that you used to, It's holiday season, 326 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:10,440 Speaker 2: a lot of different Christmas parties out there. 327 00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:12,520 Speaker 1: New Year's Eve is not that. 328 00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:19,040 Speaker 2: Far away, friends, family obligations.

Clay.

Okay. We had Marjorie Taylor 346 00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:20,640 Speaker 1: Green play the artiste. We know a kind of wine 347 00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:22,520 Speaker 1: he's drinking with that beret. You know what I'm saying, 348 00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:26,199 Speaker 1: The rose man, I can't let that. You know, the 349 00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:28,080 Speaker 1: rose thing. We got to keep rolling with this one. 350 00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:29,200 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. It's the Holida. 351 00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:33,040 Speaker 2: Will there be rose at the holiday party next this week? 352 00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:35,040 Speaker 1: Clay? You think I would have you at a holiday 353 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:37,520 Speaker 1: party and there wouldn't be there's rose in your Honor's 354 00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:40,720 Speaker 1: We're gonna call it Clay's Rose. Actually, yes, it's gonna 355 00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:44,760 Speaker 1: be like a special beverage. Marjorie Taylor Green went on 356 00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:51,560 Speaker 1: sixty minutes, and look, she was one of the people 357 00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:54,639 Speaker 1: I think in the house who was most associated with 358 00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:58,960 Speaker 1: MAGA for a period of time, were certainly in the 359 00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:02,280 Speaker 1: very pro Trump side of things. We've had her on 360 00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:04,119 Speaker 1: this show. She was always very pro Trump when she 361 00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:09,439 Speaker 1: was something has changed. And she went on CBS on 362 00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:11,800 Speaker 1: sixty minutes and we'll let you hear some of this. 363 00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:14,119 Speaker 1: This is cut twenty four. This is from her interview 364 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:17,560 Speaker 1: and the sorts of things she was saying. Play it. 365 00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:19,240 Speaker 1: He called you a lunatic. 366 00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:19,840 Speaker 4: I'm quoting. 367 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:23,480 Speaker 1: He said all she does is complain, complaint, complaint, and caps, 368 00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:24,919 Speaker 1: and then he called you a trader. 369 00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:27,960 Speaker 3: So he hit you quack too. Yes, he did this 370 00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:31,760 Speaker 3: in the same time span where President Trump brought in 371 00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:35,480 Speaker 3: the al Qaeda leader that was wanted by the US 372 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:38,600 Speaker 3: government who is now the president of Syria. Then within 373 00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:41,560 Speaker 3: a week he brought in the Crown Prince MBS who 374 00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:44,919 Speaker 3: murdered an American journalist, and then he brought in the 375 00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:49,359 Speaker 3: newly elected Democrat socialist mayor of New York. That was 376 00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:51,880 Speaker 3: the time span that he called me a trader. 377 00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:57,639 Speaker 1: She's exclaiming she's taking some shots here. What do you 378 00:20:57,680 --> 00:20:58,080 Speaker 1: make of it? 379 00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:03,399 Speaker 2: Look, she can say whatever she wants and she can 380 00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:05,800 Speaker 2: take shots at whoever she wants, and she can make 381 00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:09,720 Speaker 2: whatever arguments she feels compelled to make. What I find 382 00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:13,640 Speaker 2: to be the most intriguing here is I said earlier, 383 00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:17,320 Speaker 2: I think Paramount is the better option to buy Warner Brothers. 384 00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:20,159 Speaker 2: But President Trump has teed off on this, and I 385 00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:23,720 Speaker 2: think he's got a valid perspective. He said, Look, they 386 00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:26,800 Speaker 2: told him that sixty Minutes was going to be better 387 00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:30,679 Speaker 2: and more rational in the way that they covered the news, 388 00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:36,160 Speaker 2: and then they don't basically give Marjorie Taylor Green any 389 00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:39,600 Speaker 2: kind of platform, to my knowledge, on a regular basis 390 00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:43,480 Speaker 2: on sixty minutes, until she suddenly starts ripping Trump, and 391 00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:46,320 Speaker 2: then she shows up on the View and she shows 392 00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:49,080 Speaker 2: up on sixty minutes. And what Trump did in his 393 00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:52,880 Speaker 2: criticism was he pointed out something that is still very 394 00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:55,720 Speaker 2: significant and in fact, maybe we should pull this, because 395 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 2: I do think the audio of that, as well as 396 00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 2: the video, is still apropos and illustrative of how far 397 00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:06,719 Speaker 2: left wing CBS News had become. 398 00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:09,480 Speaker 1: That maybe the most. 399 00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:14,520 Speaker 2: Embarrassing thing in Leslie Stall's career is when she tried 400 00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:17,200 Speaker 2: to lecture Trump on the fact that they couldn't cover 401 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 2: the Hunter Biden laptop because it was Russian disinformation, and 402 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:25,000 Speaker 2: Trump said, no, you can totally cover it. You know, 403 00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:28,879 Speaker 2: it's not difficult to figure out that this is not, 404 00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:32,880 Speaker 2: in fact Russian disinformation. And he's saying in his statement 405 00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:37,400 Speaker 2: that there has never actually been any sort of apology 406 00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:41,080 Speaker 2: from Leslie Stall. An apology maybe the wrong word, but 407 00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:44,880 Speaker 2: just an acknowledgment that you were wrong about everything if 408 00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:49,960 Speaker 2: you're if you are a journalist, you effectively trade your 409 00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:54,240 Speaker 2: entire basis in this era in which we live, is 410 00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:58,240 Speaker 2: can I trust you now that you're gonna get everything right? 411 00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:02,159 Speaker 2: Because the world is comp located and stories are complex, 412 00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:05,040 Speaker 2: and sometimes you might think that X is true and 413 00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:08,760 Speaker 2: then why ends up being true? But do you come 414 00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:13,200 Speaker 2: on and address honestly your audience and say, hey, we 415 00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:17,480 Speaker 2: blew it on that one wouldn't sixty minutes say yeah, 416 00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:20,720 Speaker 2: we totally blew it on the Hunter Biden thing. And again, 417 00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:22,720 Speaker 2: apology may be the wrong word. But if I was 418 00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:25,439 Speaker 2: Leslie Stall, and I think your argument, Bluck is going 419 00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:27,199 Speaker 2: to be, well, she's doing what her job is to do, 420 00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:30,000 Speaker 2: which is just to be media propaganda, so she has 421 00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:31,520 Speaker 2: no shame associated with it. 422 00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:33,240 Speaker 1: He heggs out with me enough that he does know 423 00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:35,280 Speaker 1: my argument is going to be That is true, But 424 00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:37,840 Speaker 1: maybe I'm weird in this way. 425 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:42,360 Speaker 2: When I'm completely wrong on something, and sometimes I am, 426 00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:45,440 Speaker 2: I feel like I should sit down and say, hey, 427 00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:47,760 Speaker 2: I thought that X was going to happen. It turned 428 00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:51,440 Speaker 2: out that why happened, and I got it wrong. And look, 429 00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:54,520 Speaker 2: I'm not going to be perfect in predicting or analyzing everything. 430 00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:57,360 Speaker 2: All I'm telling you is I'm trying to do my best. 431 00:23:57,680 --> 00:24:01,399 Speaker 2: I wonder how this story ends up happening, Like, how 432 00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:05,200 Speaker 2: is it that sixty minutes, which now has new ownership, 433 00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:10,399 Speaker 2: decides that Marjorie Taylor Green, solely based on her feud 434 00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:13,440 Speaker 2: with Trump, is now worthy of a viewership. 435 00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:15,000 Speaker 1: And let me also point this out. 436 00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:18,600 Speaker 2: Sixty Minutes always brags you probably see it too, Buck 437 00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:21,600 Speaker 2: about how many people watch their news show and how 438 00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:25,880 Speaker 2: influential they are. It's cause you're on after the NFL. 439 00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:30,480 Speaker 2: They could put me doing cartwheels in my pool on 440 00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:35,320 Speaker 2: sixty Minutes as the entire hour long special pool handstands 441 00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:38,679 Speaker 2: with Clay, and twenty five million people would watch it 442 00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:44,400 Speaker 2: because everybody was just watching the NFL right before, and 443 00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:50,239 Speaker 2: so enough people stay that the shoulder programming of the 444 00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:53,440 Speaker 2: NFL lifts the rising tide lifts all boats. 445 00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:53,640 Speaker 1: Buck. 446 00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:55,320 Speaker 2: This used to go back to do you know what 447 00:24:55,560 --> 00:25:00,600 Speaker 2: the most desired programming opportunity is? If you told me now, Clay, 448 00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:04,400 Speaker 2: you can pick any time to be on television at 449 00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:06,000 Speaker 2: any point in the year. Do you know what the 450 00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:10,280 Speaker 2: number one time slot is? Right after the Super Bowl? 451 00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:13,760 Speaker 2: So as soon as the Super Bowl is over, whatever 452 00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:16,800 Speaker 2: they put on, and once the postgame show is over 453 00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:20,680 Speaker 2: and everything else gets like fifty million viewers because people 454 00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:24,240 Speaker 2: are still at their Super Bowl parties, they're still drinking, 455 00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:27,199 Speaker 2: they're still hanging out. There's lots of frivolity, and they 456 00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:31,639 Speaker 2: happen to leave their televisions on. You know, sometimes we 457 00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:34,919 Speaker 2: benefit from this. When I did sports talker radio, we 458 00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:39,439 Speaker 2: had dominant ratings in LA and many of you listening 459 00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:41,399 Speaker 2: to us right now you found me in LA. Do 460 00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:43,440 Speaker 2: you know what we benefited from back in the day. 461 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:48,000 Speaker 2: Why that partly occurred. Dodger games were aired on my 462 00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:52,000 Speaker 2: LA sports talker radio affiliate, So a lot of people 463 00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:54,560 Speaker 2: would be in their car driving around. They would be 464 00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:57,720 Speaker 2: going to bed listening to the Dodgers, and when they 465 00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:00,240 Speaker 2: woke up the next morning, they would still be on 466 00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:02,560 Speaker 2: the station and they're like Oh, here's this guy. 467 00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:03,880 Speaker 1: Claike Thravis. I kind of like him. 468 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:07,280 Speaker 2: So everybody can benefit in media based on the lead program. 469 00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:09,840 Speaker 2: I hope Sean Hannity is benefiting from us. We benefit 470 00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:13,000 Speaker 2: from Glenn Beck in this network. Jesse Kelly benefits from 471 00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:15,600 Speaker 2: Sean Hannity. It's a rising tide that lifts all boats. 472 00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:19,560 Speaker 2: But the fact that sixty Minutes is as cocky as 473 00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:22,560 Speaker 2: they are and that they would make the decision to 474 00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:26,320 Speaker 2: do this story, I think is illustrative that there are 475 00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:29,919 Speaker 2: still a lot of people deeply embedded inside of sixty 476 00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:32,439 Speaker 2: minutes that hate Trump and are going to try to 477 00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:35,000 Speaker 2: do whatever they can to attack him. And I think 478 00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:39,200 Speaker 2: Trump sees it. And again, I think this is underlining 479 00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:42,200 Speaker 2: the decision that's going to have to be made about 480 00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:45,800 Speaker 2: who ends up owning all of these assets from Warner 481 00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:52,800 Speaker 2: Brothers were all tied together. What happened to Marjorie Taylor 482 00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:55,440 Speaker 2: green Clay? You wanted to talk about it? What's going on? 483 00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:56,320 Speaker 1: I don't know. 484 00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:02,200 Speaker 2: I mean no, I mean, I do think the fact 485 00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:04,720 Speaker 2: that they gave her a platform is a bigger story 486 00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:09,679 Speaker 2: than what she individually has ended up focused on. I 487 00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:13,840 Speaker 2: think that this is this is my deep seated psychological analysis. 488 00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:16,680 Speaker 2: See if you buy into this buck. When Joe Biden 489 00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:21,120 Speaker 2: was in office, there was an existential threat to the country. 490 00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:25,120 Speaker 2: The borders are wide open, Inflation goes to nine percent, 491 00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:29,600 Speaker 2: Biden is talking about packing the Supreme Court, war in Ukraine, 492 00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:34,399 Speaker 2: war in Israel, the botched withdrawal from Afghanistan. It was 493 00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:38,040 Speaker 2: all so bad that a lot of people came together 494 00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:44,679 Speaker 2: and Trump's election eliminated that existential fear of Biden and 495 00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:49,359 Speaker 2: his government running. And instead of saying, hey, okay, let's 496 00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:53,680 Speaker 2: all pull together, I think when that existential enemy is eliminated, 497 00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:57,040 Speaker 2: everybody decided that they were going to start fighting over 498 00:27:57,200 --> 00:28:01,760 Speaker 2: differences of opinion inside the big tent. And so the 499 00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:05,800 Speaker 2: result of Trump's victory was the existential threat of the 500 00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:10,040 Speaker 2: Biden administration is diminished. And so many different people in media, 501 00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:14,439 Speaker 2: with that existential threat that great evil eliminated, decided to 502 00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:17,800 Speaker 2: turn on each other. And I'm big and you're big 503 00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:20,320 Speaker 2: on this. In general, I don't presume that I'm going 504 00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:23,800 Speaker 2: to agree with everybody inside of what I would call 505 00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:27,200 Speaker 2: the tint of sanity. We're gonna have all sorts of disagreements, 506 00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:31,760 Speaker 2: but the tint of insanity is so insane. I don't 507 00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:36,400 Speaker 2: feel an obligation to have purity tests or fight inside 508 00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:39,880 Speaker 2: of my own tent when there's people out there telling me, Hey, 509 00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:43,440 Speaker 2: the best male athlete the best female athletes are men 510 00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:47,240 Speaker 2: like I want to keep the focus on saying versus insane, 511 00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:52,320 Speaker 2: not internal disputes over well, how should we handle Israel? Well, 512 00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:55,479 Speaker 2: what do you think we should do about Ukraine? Small 513 00:28:55,600 --> 00:28:59,160 Speaker 2: things have I think distracted a lot of people, and 514 00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:00,520 Speaker 2: they're missing the big enemy. 515 00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:05,040 Speaker 1: This maybe smaller. I mean sometimes it's small differences. I mean, 516 00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:07,680 Speaker 1: obviously on the Ukraine war and on Israel, those can 517 00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:10,400 Speaker 1: be depending on these specifics of the subject matter, very 518 00:29:10,840 --> 00:29:15,200 Speaker 1: important topics. But yeah, I don't I don't have a person, 519 00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:18,960 Speaker 1: I don't have a viewpoint on these things that leads 520 00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:23,360 Speaker 1: me to want to get into the mud wrestling, So 521 00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:26,480 Speaker 1: I stay out. But I like the mud wrestling. 522 00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:28,440 Speaker 2: I just want to mud wrestle with the people that 523 00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:30,960 Speaker 2: actually have awful ideas, is what I'm seopl who have 524 00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:32,680 Speaker 2: subtle variations different than me. 525 00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:35,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I don't want to mud wrestle on our team. Sorry, 526 00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:36,880 Speaker 1: the mud wrestling thing this is sounded kind of weird. 527 00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:38,920 Speaker 1: I don't want to get into the into the muck 528 00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:43,440 Speaker 1: of things with people who I agree with on ninety 529 00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:46,480 Speaker 1: percent or ninety five percent of things. So my view 530 00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:48,520 Speaker 1: of the Marjorie Taylor Green Trump thing is, what are 531 00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:51,800 Speaker 1: you doing, Marjorie? You know what, what's what's going on? 532 00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:54,960 Speaker 1: What's going on here? I don't. I don't understand, And 533 00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:59,200 Speaker 1: she's not surprised. I would assume that Trump takes the 534 00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:02,160 Speaker 1: view that he does. If you take a swing at Trump, 535 00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:05,840 Speaker 1: he just tends to go thermonuclear in response. That's just 536 00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:08,360 Speaker 1: the verbally, but that's just the way that that's the 537 00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:11,040 Speaker 1: way that he always has been. So I don't see 538 00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:14,080 Speaker 1: any of this as really that surprising. But you wanted 539 00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:15,320 Speaker 1: to talk about it, We talked about it. 540 00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:17,640 Speaker 2: I do think do you agree with me that if 541 00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:21,240 Speaker 2: Kamala had one, I think there's a zero percent chance 542 00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:24,160 Speaker 2: that by and large, fighting on the right would have happened, 543 00:30:24,280 --> 00:30:26,400 Speaker 2: because Kamala would have been such a disaster. 544 00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:28,320 Speaker 1: There would have been a unity of opposition. I've been 545 00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:31,280 Speaker 1: saying this all along a lot of the right on 546 00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:36,280 Speaker 1: right stuff you see happening right now, where people are 547 00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:38,680 Speaker 1: going after other people who are conservative or who are 548 00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:40,160 Speaker 1: on the right, and you know, a lot of it 549 00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:43,760 Speaker 1: has to do with support for Israel stuff or whatever 550 00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:48,320 Speaker 1: it may be, or people on there's some conspiracy stuff 551 00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:51,440 Speaker 1: out there too, but that would not be happening if 552 00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:54,720 Speaker 1: we had a Democrat in office right now. Part of 553 00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:58,320 Speaker 1: what you see going on, Clay is we are actually 554 00:30:58,360 --> 00:31:02,080 Speaker 1: getting the right is. So it's so new to us 555 00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:06,280 Speaker 1: to have wins stacked up on wins by an administration 556 00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:09,880 Speaker 1: that I think people feel they have the time and 557 00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:12,560 Speaker 1: the luxury to eat their own a little bit. And 558 00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:15,560 Speaker 1: that's what's happening. You wouldn't normally have this kind of stuff. 559 00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:18,640 Speaker 1: We will all trust me every everything right now. A 560 00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 1: lot of them, a lot of people probably aren't even 561 00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:23,520 Speaker 1: aware of it. You have to be very online. You 562 00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:26,240 Speaker 1: have to be very online, meaning you know, involved in 563 00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:29,360 Speaker 1: the digital space. So if you're a talk radio listener, 564 00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:31,600 Speaker 1: you're probably thinking, what are these guys even talking about 565 00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:34,720 Speaker 1: because there's not very much of it. Certainly we don't 566 00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:36,560 Speaker 1: do it. You know, the big talk radio shows aren't 567 00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:39,040 Speaker 1: really getting into this stuff. They're focused on our show, 568 00:31:39,160 --> 00:31:43,920 Speaker 1: Sean's show, Glenn's show.

Appreciate all 601 00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:31,120 Speaker 2: of you hanging out with us as we are rolling 602 00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:35,640 Speaker 2: through uh the program here and uh, there are a 603 00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:38,280 Speaker 2: lot of different stories that we have been tracking so far. 604 00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:42,640 Speaker 2: I did want to mention this presidential power case. I 605 00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:45,120 Speaker 2: actually think it's flying under the radar a little bit 606 00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:50,560 Speaker 2: given the fact that, uh, there's a lot of different 607 00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:55,480 Speaker 2: stories to follow. This is huge, Buck, and basically what 608 00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:59,440 Speaker 2: it's going to be determined is and this will be 609 00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:02,040 Speaker 2: for president and it's long into the future. Because everybody says, 610 00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:04,960 Speaker 2: oh my goodness, President of the United States, this is 611 00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:06,320 Speaker 2: the Supreme Court bending. 612 00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:08,240 Speaker 1: To his will. Trump's got three more years. 613 00:34:09,239 --> 00:34:12,400 Speaker 2: The odds of even there being that many Supreme Court 614 00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:15,440 Speaker 2: cases that come up for Trump in front of the 615 00:34:15,480 --> 00:34:19,080 Speaker 2: Supreme Court in the next two years are increasingly less 616 00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:21,800 Speaker 2: substantial because it takes so long to get cases of 617 00:34:21,840 --> 00:34:23,160 Speaker 2: the Supreme Court to decide them. 618 00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:23,840 Speaker 1: All these things. 619 00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:28,240 Speaker 2: Okay, the president, in my opinion, has to be able 620 00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:32,720 Speaker 2: to fire all of these people that are being propped 621 00:34:32,800 --> 00:34:37,480 Speaker 2: up inside of the governmental bureaucracy. And if we have 622 00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:41,680 Speaker 2: true separation of powers, what we have effectively allowed is 623 00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:47,279 Speaker 2: these agencies to sweep in between Congress and the president 624 00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:51,759 Speaker 2: and take up so much power that whether you like 625 00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:55,560 Speaker 2: Trump or don't like Trump, what is the purpose of 626 00:34:55,600 --> 00:35:01,279 Speaker 2: an executive and how is the executive authority circumscribed to 627 00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:04,839 Speaker 2: what extent at all by the rise of these agencies 628 00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:07,840 Speaker 2: and the ability to hire fire. It's a huge story, 629 00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:11,480 Speaker 2: and it's going to exist long after Trump is gone. 630 00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:15,520 Speaker 2: Are we going to have a president who controls all 631 00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:19,600 Speaker 2: these aspects of his presidency or are we going to 632 00:35:19,640 --> 00:35:23,280 Speaker 2: have unelected bureaucrats that are allowed to serve for generations 633 00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:25,399 Speaker 2: that don't have to be at the beck and call 634 00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:26,720 Speaker 2: of the President of the United States. 635 00:35:27,160 --> 00:35:30,640 Speaker 1: Think about what happened even during the government shutdown there 636 00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:34,279 Speaker 1: were people who were fired from I know, from within 637 00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:37,960 Speaker 1: the intelligence agencies who were told thank you, but your 638 00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:40,799 Speaker 1: services are no longer needed. And then a judge came in, 639 00:35:40,840 --> 00:35:44,040 Speaker 1: a federal judge, and said, yes, you have to rehire 640 00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:48,000 Speaker 1: these people. They were terminated and now they have to 641 00:35:48,239 --> 00:35:52,760 Speaker 1: Could you can you imagine that job? Hey, Bill? Turns 642 00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:55,920 Speaker 1: out we kind of need you, Hey John, could you 643 00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:58,000 Speaker 1: actually show up and bring your stuff with you? 644 00:35:58,560 --> 00:36:03,800 Speaker 2: Crazy that when we had the government shut down, everybody 645 00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:07,080 Speaker 2: eventually ended up getting paid. A lot of people focused, 646 00:36:07,080 --> 00:36:10,080 Speaker 2: as we should, on air traffic controllers. There's also a 647 00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:13,040 Speaker 2: huge discussion I think they could be had about how 648 00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:15,680 Speaker 2: many of those guys in gals didn't have jobs and 649 00:36:15,719 --> 00:36:18,840 Speaker 2: it didn't even matter that they weren't there for a 650 00:36:18,920 --> 00:36:21,960 Speaker 2: month and the change because there was no impact to 651 00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:24,799 Speaker 2: them being gone. I'm willing to die on the hill 652 00:36:24,880 --> 00:36:27,960 Speaker 2: of we could fire seventy five percent of federal employees 653 00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:33,040 Speaker 2: and the overall effectiveness of government wouldn't budget all. I mean, heck, 654 00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:34,920 Speaker 2: I think you can see even inside of a for 655 00:36:35,080 --> 00:36:38,840 Speaker 2: profit business. Elon came in and fired what was it like, 656 00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:42,280 Speaker 2: seventy percent of all the Twitter employees, and the overall 657 00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:45,000 Speaker 2: success of Twitter didn't change at all. In fact, arguably 658 00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:47,400 Speaker 2: it got better. We come back top of the next hour. 659 00:36:47,480 --> 00:36:51,440 Speaker 2: We'll dive into that Supreme Court case and Australia banned 660 00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:53,120 Speaker 2: sixteen and unders on social media. 661 00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:54,080 Speaker 1: What do y'all think about that
