00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,360
Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Buck

2
00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:06,680
Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. The third hour of The Clay Travis

3
00:00:06,680 --> 00:00:10,160
Speaker 1: and Buck Sexton Show is here, everybody, Thanks for rolling

4
00:00:10,200 --> 00:00:15,120
Speaker 1: with us. We've got now joining the Governor of Mississippi,

5
00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:18,480
Speaker 1: Tate Reeves is with us. Mister governor, thanks for calling in.

6
00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:22,640
Speaker 1: Thank you for having me, adding always, it's great to

7
00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:25,160
Speaker 1: be on the show. How are you all today? We're good, sir,

8
00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:29,000
Speaker 1: Thank you. Let's just talk. Let's talk taxes for a minute,

9
00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:31,040
Speaker 1: if wee can. I know you're doing some things in

10
00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:34,519
Speaker 1: your home state of Mississippi to try to ease the

11
00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:38,839
Speaker 1: tax burden. But why is it that there are there

12
00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:41,400
Speaker 1: are some red states out there that still have state

13
00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:44,400
Speaker 1: income taxes? What can you do to get rid of it?

14
00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:46,720
Speaker 1: And why is our tax code at a federal level

15
00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:52,559
Speaker 1: thousands of pages long? Well, you know that's a that's

16
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:54,600
Speaker 1: a couple of questions in there, and they could take

17
00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:56,600
Speaker 1: a couple hours. Dan, Well, let's start with the federal

18
00:00:56,640 --> 00:01:00,960
Speaker 1: tax code. It's a couple thousand pages is long because

19
00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:05,880
Speaker 1: the federal government continues to spend irresponsibly and somebody's got

20
00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:07,480
Speaker 1: to pay for it. You know, we believe down here

21
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:11,319
Speaker 1: in Mississippi that that government doesn't have anything that it

22
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:14,640
Speaker 1: doesn't first take from somebody else. And at the federal level,

23
00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:18,880
Speaker 1: they literally take trillions of dollars from the taxpayers and

24
00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:24,080
Speaker 1: constantly spend and spend and spend. And today is just

25
00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:27,520
Speaker 1: an example that more and more people hopefully are paying

26
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:31,319
Speaker 1: attention to how much they are paying in taxes. You know,

27
00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 1: technology is a good thing, but the technology that allowed

28
00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:40,160
Speaker 1: American workers to take out on a weekly or a

29
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:42,640
Speaker 1: bi monthly or a monthly basis of their check what

30
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:45,600
Speaker 1: they pay and owe the federal government makes a lot

31
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:48,720
Speaker 1: of individual Americans forget how much they're paying to the

32
00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:52,160
Speaker 1: federal government. And I think that's creates some of the challenges.

33
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,600
Speaker 1: I appreciate you coming on, Governor. I'm curious how much

34
00:01:56,640 --> 00:02:01,080
Speaker 1: attention with COVID mobility meanings so many people were able

35
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:03,800
Speaker 1: to work or remotely and move to different parts of

36
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:08,040
Speaker 1: the country. It feels like among the business centric states,

37
00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:11,519
Speaker 1: which obviously a lot of them have Republican governors, there's

38
00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:14,280
Speaker 1: been an attempt to make an appeal to that group

39
00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:17,400
Speaker 1: by declining the amount of state income tax. And obviously

40
00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:20,760
Speaker 1: I live in Tennessee. People know Florida, Tennessee and Texas

41
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:23,160
Speaker 1: don't have any state income tax in the South at all.

42
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:26,840
Speaker 1: How much of that is competition that you're seeing To

43
00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:29,720
Speaker 1: try to help Mississippi give a little bit more of

44
00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:32,040
Speaker 1: a reason for somebody to move to your state potentially,

45
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:34,320
Speaker 1: and also obviously help the people who are already there

46
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:39,520
Speaker 1: well as usual, you have absolutely hit the proverbial nail

47
00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:43,840
Speaker 1: on the head. I tell my legislators and the people

48
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:46,880
Speaker 1: across my state, you don't have to be a genius

49
00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:49,600
Speaker 1: to look at a map and recognize that to Mississippi's

50
00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:52,760
Speaker 1: west is Texas, to our northes Tennessee, and to our

51
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:56,200
Speaker 1: east is Florida. And if we want to be competitive,

52
00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:59,040
Speaker 1: if we want to be competitive in our attempts to

53
00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:02,679
Speaker 1: see additional capital investment, if we want to be competitive

54
00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:05,320
Speaker 1: in our attempts to create jobs, we want to be

55
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:09,600
Speaker 1: competitive in our attempts to lure more residents than to

56
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:13,919
Speaker 1: our state, we have to recognize that both that all Texas, Tennessee,

57
00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:17,200
Speaker 1: in Florida all have zero income tax. And that's the

58
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:21,320
Speaker 1: reason earlier this year I propose the complete elimination of

59
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:23,440
Speaker 1: the income tax in Mississippi so that we would be

60
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:26,600
Speaker 1: on level playing ground. We didn't get one hundred percent

61
00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:29,080
Speaker 1: of what we asked for, but we did get a

62
00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:33,480
Speaker 1: major move in the right direction. Wherein today, based upon

63
00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:35,360
Speaker 1: the line of the law that I found in the

64
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:42,080
Speaker 1: law last week, we now have the fifth lowest marginal

65
00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:46,040
Speaker 1: tax rate in America amongst those forty one states that

66
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:48,600
Speaker 1: have an income taxes. You know, there are nine income states,

67
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,840
Speaker 1: including Texas, Florida, and louis and Tennessee that do not

68
00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 1: have an income tax. But amongst those forty one states

69
00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:58,640
Speaker 1: that do have an income tax, Mississippi had number one

70
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:02,880
Speaker 1: the highest exemptions. Of the first thirty six thousand, three

71
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:06,600
Speaker 1: hundred dollars of income is not taxed or is taxed

72
00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:10,080
Speaker 1: as zero percent in Mississippi. And then we also have

73
00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:13,360
Speaker 1: the fifth lowest marginal rate, so that even at our

74
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:18,039
Speaker 1: highest earners pay a flat four percent income tax, which

75
00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:22,520
Speaker 1: again is lower than some thirty six other states in America.

76
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:24,880
Speaker 1: And so well, we do it because I think it's

77
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:28,440
Speaker 1: good public policy, but as you, as you so correctly

78
00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:30,640
Speaker 1: said in the question, we also do it because we

79
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:36,159
Speaker 1: have to because that's exactly who we compete with. And look,

80
00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:38,880
Speaker 1: the results are obvious when you look at Florida. You

81
00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 1: look at Tennessee and you look at Texas, three of

82
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:44,960
Speaker 1: the fastest growing GDP states in all of America. And

83
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:48,159
Speaker 1: you look at the other states across America, and what

84
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:51,760
Speaker 1: you see is that in terms of economic growth, in

85
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:54,800
Speaker 1: terms of GDP growth, and in terms of population growth,

86
00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,719
Speaker 1: those individual states that do not have an income tax

87
00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:02,400
Speaker 1: are doing better almost without exception, the those states to

88
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:09,279
Speaker 1: do have an income tax. Tsissippi, Governor, the numbers are

89
00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:14,320
Speaker 1: in for the last month on immigration when it comes

90
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:18,280
Speaker 1: to our southern border, there were, according to a federal

91
00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:22,080
Speaker 1: court filing two and twenty one, three hundred and three

92
00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:27,160
Speaker 1: migrants encountered, which means processed and arrested for illegal entry

93
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:30,159
Speaker 1: at the southern border in March. That's the highest for

94
00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:34,039
Speaker 1: any months since Biden took office. Eighty thousand of them

95
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:36,320
Speaker 1: were released into the US. The other one hundred and

96
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:39,640
Speaker 1: nine thousand, give or take, were expelled via Title forty

97
00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:43,760
Speaker 1: two authority. That Title forty two authority goes away in

98
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:47,800
Speaker 1: about a month's time, and there's already a number of

99
00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:53,279
Speaker 1: major migrant caravans making their way to the US Mexico border.

100
00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:55,640
Speaker 1: How do you see this playing out? And what is

101
00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:59,240
Speaker 1: the Biden administration doing in preparation for a surge that

102
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:03,320
Speaker 1: we can all see well, I can only assume that

103
00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:06,800
Speaker 1: the Biden administration is doing the same thing in preparation

104
00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:12,080
Speaker 1: today after announcing their decision on Title forty two that

105
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:14,479
Speaker 1: they've been doing for the last year, and that is

106
00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:20,800
Speaker 1: basically absolutely nothing. It is extremely concerning to me and

107
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:24,720
Speaker 1: to other Southern state governors, particularly that we've seen this

108
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:30,120
Speaker 1: huge uptick in illegal immigration in this country. It frustrates

109
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:32,720
Speaker 1: me to no end, to be honest with you, that

110
00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:36,280
Speaker 1: within the last two weeks, Vice President Kamala Harris has

111
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:40,839
Speaker 1: found time in her schedule to visit Greenville, Mississippi, to

112
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:43,960
Speaker 1: highlight whatever it is that she wanted to highlight. But

113
00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:47,080
Speaker 1: she hasn't had time in the last year during her

114
00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:50,200
Speaker 1: tenure as being in charge of the border crisis, to

115
00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:54,240
Speaker 1: actually visit the southern border. It is extremely frustrating to me.

116
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:57,839
Speaker 1: It is bad for the country, but it's just shows

117
00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:02,520
Speaker 1: on issue after issue after the Biden administration and particularly

118
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:06,320
Speaker 1: those at the top, really have no understanding of what's

119
00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:09,720
Speaker 1: happening on the ground because they refuse to visit places

120
00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:15,760
Speaker 1: like the southern border. We're talking to Mississippi Governor, Tate Reeves, Governor, obviously,

121
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:17,600
Speaker 1: today is tax Day and you've done a good job

122
00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:21,200
Speaker 1: of helping to rescind some of the taxes that are

123
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:24,840
Speaker 1: obligated to be paid by your citizens. Are you as

124
00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:27,520
Speaker 1: you look towards I know you're a state elected official,

125
00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:30,600
Speaker 1: but as you look toward twenty twenty two and what

126
00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:33,440
Speaker 1: feels like and I bet you feel it in Mississippi,

127
00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:37,760
Speaker 1: what's going to be a red wave? Are you concerned

128
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:41,040
Speaker 1: at all that Democrats may try to pass through a

129
00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:44,800
Speaker 1: tax increase on the national level while they still have

130
00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:48,160
Speaker 1: a majority in the Senate and in the House, regardless

131
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 1: of what that economic impact might be, because come November

132
00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:55,760
Speaker 1: they're not going to have the power to do it anymore. Well,

133
00:07:55,760 --> 00:08:00,360
Speaker 1: I certainly hope that there are enough members of the

134
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:04,120
Speaker 1: US Senate that are reasonable that that would not happen.

135
00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:06,840
Speaker 1: But yes, I'm very concerned about it. If you if

136
00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:10,320
Speaker 1: you look at one of the biggest problems domestically today

137
00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:15,000
Speaker 1: in America is inflation. It is the fact that when

138
00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:18,640
Speaker 1: Mississippi residents and others across the country, when they go

139
00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:22,560
Speaker 1: to their gas stations to fill up, their gas costs

140
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,200
Speaker 1: thirty forty fifty percent more to day than it did

141
00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:27,720
Speaker 1: just a year ago. One of the biggest problems in

142
00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:31,680
Speaker 1: America today is the rising cost of bread and milk

143
00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:35,439
Speaker 1: and other goods that individuals are buying at the grocery store.

144
00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:39,959
Speaker 1: And there is no doubt that all of this rising

145
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:44,800
Speaker 1: inflation is a direct result of the bad economic policies

146
00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:48,000
Speaker 1: put in place by the Biden administration. So I would

147
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:50,080
Speaker 1: not at all put it past the Biden administration to

148
00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:54,320
Speaker 1: propose yet another bad economic policy light raising taxes on

149
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:57,840
Speaker 1: the hard working people of this country who are struggling

150
00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:00,240
Speaker 1: right now to pay the bills because of the fact

151
00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:05,280
Speaker 1: that inflation is eating up the dollar every single day.

152
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:10,120
Speaker 1: Governor Reeves, have you seen the latest out of a

153
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:14,719
Speaker 1: federal court in Florida where they have struck down a

154
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:17,480
Speaker 1: judge is struck down the federal mask mandate. Just wondering

155
00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:19,280
Speaker 1: what your thoughts are on this, and how do you

156
00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:21,840
Speaker 1: see this playing out in your state in so many

157
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:25,160
Speaker 1: other states. Now it would seem like now people shouldn't

158
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:28,600
Speaker 1: have to mask up on planes, trains or elsewhere. Well,

159
00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:31,120
Speaker 1: I will tell you I literally was just told about

160
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:34,280
Speaker 1: that as I was walking into this particular interview, and

161
00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:38,360
Speaker 1: good for the federal judge in Florida. My understanding is

162
00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:43,800
Speaker 1: the basic arguments in his striking down is this is

163
00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:47,720
Speaker 1: yet another federal overreach by the Biden administration that is

164
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:51,079
Speaker 1: not justified by the science, and that is something that

165
00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:55,079
Speaker 1: has become more and more evident. In fact, I'm scheduled

166
00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:57,000
Speaker 1: to fly sometime in the next two or three days,

167
00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:58,880
Speaker 1: and I think what you just said is exactly right.

168
00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:02,480
Speaker 1: I don't think anybody after this ruling by this federal

169
00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:05,520
Speaker 1: judge in Florida should be required to where a mask

170
00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:11,400
Speaker 1: on an airplane. Governor, I appreciate you joining us here

171
00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:15,760
Speaker 1: on this day. When you look towards twenty twenty two,

172
00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:18,559
Speaker 1: what do you expect to see? What are you seeing

173
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:20,760
Speaker 1: on the ground in Mississippi? What do you expect to

174
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:27,680
Speaker 1: see come November. Well, obviously, I'm extremely optimistic for the

175
00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:31,840
Speaker 1: twenty twenty two elections, particularly those elections in the US

176
00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:35,000
Speaker 1: House of Representatives as well as the US Senate, as

177
00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:38,400
Speaker 1: well as governors racists from around the country, because the

178
00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:42,080
Speaker 1: American people are a lot smarter than the Democrat politicians

179
00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:45,319
Speaker 1: in Washington think they are, and the American people and

180
00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:49,840
Speaker 1: the American voters recognize that the reason prices are going

181
00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:54,280
Speaker 1: up is because of the excess spending by the Biden administration.

182
00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:57,280
Speaker 1: They recognize that when you look at red states and

183
00:10:57,360 --> 00:10:59,960
Speaker 1: you see GDP growth, and you see the lowest unemployed

184
00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:05,480
Speaker 1: rates in our country's history. For instance, in Mississippi today,

185
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:08,480
Speaker 1: we literally had the lowest unemployment rate we've ever had

186
00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:11,760
Speaker 1: in our state. But when you look at blue states,

187
00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:15,080
Speaker 1: they continue to have unemployment rates that are nowhere near

188
00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:17,520
Speaker 1: their all time lows, and that is in large part

189
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:21,559
Speaker 1: because of the policies that were enacted during the pandemic.

190
00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:26,440
Speaker 1: You see states who believe in freedom try to ensure

191
00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:28,920
Speaker 1: that we focus not only on protecting lives, but also

192
00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:32,560
Speaker 1: protecting livelihoods, making sure that our people could get up

193
00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:35,280
Speaker 1: and go to work and provide for themselves and provide

194
00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:39,400
Speaker 1: for their families. We never wanted individuals in Mississippi to

195
00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:42,040
Speaker 1: have to make a choice between doing what was best

196
00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:44,280
Speaker 1: and providing for their families and their ability to put

197
00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:46,880
Speaker 1: food on the table, and what the CDC or some

198
00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:49,400
Speaker 1: federal agency told them that they had to or had

199
00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:52,200
Speaker 1: not or could not do. And so I think the

200
00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:56,719
Speaker 1: American people have seen what's happened, They have seen what

201
00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:59,120
Speaker 1: leadership looks like in the different decisions that have been

202
00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:01,600
Speaker 1: made in red state versus blue states, or at least

203
00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:04,320
Speaker 1: in those states that are run by Republican governors versus

204
00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:07,160
Speaker 1: those that are run by Democratic governors. They've seen the

205
00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:13,080
Speaker 1: days spending in Washington that has led to significant additional

206
00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:18,720
Speaker 1: burdens on every single working family across America. And I

207
00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:23,079
Speaker 1: think they also recognize that literally, were it not for

208
00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:29,960
Speaker 1: one or two senators joining the the fifty Republicans in

209
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:33,120
Speaker 1: the United States Senate, were it not for them, literally

210
00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:36,559
Speaker 1: just a razor thin margin of senators, the body of

211
00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:39,360
Speaker 1: indistruction would have been successful at getting three or three

212
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:43,080
Speaker 1: and a half trillion dollars more of their Christmas wish

213
00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:47,240
Speaker 1: lists in spending that would have simply called our prices

214
00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:50,920
Speaker 1: for gas and food and milk and bread, etc. To

215
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:53,280
Speaker 1: go up even further. So I'm optimistic of by the

216
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:56,920
Speaker 1: twenty twenty two elections. But I'll also tell both of y'all,

217
00:12:56,960 --> 00:13:01,320
Speaker 1: and I mean this, uh, it is just April of

218
00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:05,160
Speaker 1: twenty twenty two, our candidates across the country running for

219
00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:10,120
Speaker 1: a House, for Senate, for governor, and every legislative seat

220
00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:13,000
Speaker 1: in every local race, we still got a lot of

221
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:15,960
Speaker 1: work to do. And I've always believed that the harder

222
00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:19,320
Speaker 1: you work, the luckier you get. And we've just got

223
00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:22,439
Speaker 1: to keep working hard and keep explaining to the American

224
00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:26,720
Speaker 1: people why our policies are good for the American people

225
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:30,360
Speaker 1: and Joe Biden's policies are bad. And I think if

226
00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:33,400
Speaker 1: we continue to focus that message over the next six months,

227
00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:36,760
Speaker 1: I think we'll be very successful in November. Governor Reeves

228
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:39,960
Speaker 1: of Mississippi, sir, great to have you on. Thanks for joining.

229
00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:42,760
Speaker 1: It's always great to be on y'all. Have a great day.

230
00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:46,280
Speaker 1: Nearly a third of us suffer from chronic pain because

231
00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:49,600
Speaker 1: of aging, exercise. We're just over exertion in our day

232
00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:52,240
Speaker 1: to day Nobody wants to be in that kind of pain,

233
00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:54,640
Speaker 1: nor see a family member of friends suffer that way.

234
00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:57,120
Speaker 1: We have a solution for you. It's likely a name

235
00:13:57,160 --> 00:13:59,760
Speaker 1: you heard us talking about for a good reason. It works.

236
00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:03,760
Speaker 1: Created by doctors and perfected over fifteen years of scientific research,

237
00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:08,000
Speaker 1: relief Factor was made for these circumstances with four key ingredients.

238
00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:10,840
Speaker 1: Relief Factor is a one hundred percent drug free product

239
00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:14,640
Speaker 1: which addresses joint pain, knee, hip, back, neck, and shoulder pain.

240
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:17,800
Speaker 1: Hundreds of thousands of people have ordered relief Factor, and

241
00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:20,280
Speaker 1: nearly seventy percent of them go on to order more.

242
00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:22,440
Speaker 1: If you're currently in pain and have a seven and

243
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:24,920
Speaker 1: ten chance to eliminate it, those are pretty good odds.

244
00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:29,200
Speaker 1: One satisfied Relief Factor customer is Robin in Ohio. Talk

245
00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:32,120
Speaker 1: about a challenging job. Robin works in a correctional facility

246
00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:35,320
Speaker 1: and last year severely broke her wrist. After her surgery,

247
00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:38,200
Speaker 1: Robin used relief Factor as part of three months of

248
00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:41,280
Speaker 1: intensive therapy. Wanting to return to work quickly and fighting

249
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:44,600
Speaker 1: through severe pain and swelling. Robin credits relief Factor for

250
00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:47,880
Speaker 1: the confidence to push hard with her therapy. Instead of

251
00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:50,800
Speaker 1: taking an expected seven months for recovery, Robin was able

252
00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:52,800
Speaker 1: to get back to work in four and a half.

260
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:24,880
Speaker 1: Klay Travis Buck Sexton Show, Breaking News. I want to

261
00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:26,600
Speaker 1: talk about this a little bit because we got some

262
00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 1: good news, and I feel like a lot of times

263
00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:31,440
Speaker 1: there's bad news. Don't know how long it's gonna last.

264
00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:35,280
Speaker 1: But a hero Federal District Court judge in the state

265
00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:40,280
Speaker 1: of Florida, not surprisingly a Donald Trump appointee, has struck

266
00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:44,880
Speaker 1: down the mask band date on airplanes, saying the CDC

267
00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:51,440
Speaker 1: has exceeded its authority in implementing them, particularly this fifteen

268
00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:56,120
Speaker 1: day extension, which I believe runs now until May third.

269
00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:58,000
Speaker 1: Am I right about that? Buck? I think that I

270
00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:02,440
Speaker 1: am the fifteen day extension now, and so the question

271
00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:07,120
Speaker 1: will be one, how quickly will the appeal be filed?

272
00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:12,840
Speaker 1: And two will there be other judges, potentially in the

273
00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:16,640
Speaker 1: state of Florida who will agree that the CDC has

274
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:20,840
Speaker 1: exceeded its authority. I think this is something that should

275
00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:23,880
Speaker 1: have happened a long time ago. I have not read

276
00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:26,720
Speaker 1: the opinion, but we have been making the argument on

277
00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:30,080
Speaker 1: this show for some time. How in the world can

278
00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:33,720
Speaker 1: the CDC say that COVID is not an emergency at

279
00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:38,120
Speaker 1: the border under Title forty two and wipe that out

280
00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:40,920
Speaker 1: and allow basically the border at the south to be

281
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:45,160
Speaker 1: wide open while simultaneously saying it's not safe enough to

282
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:50,160
Speaker 1: fly on airplanes, particularly because buck all ten major airline

283
00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:54,840
Speaker 1: CEOs have written a letter to the Biden administration saying

284
00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:57,840
Speaker 1: it's time to remove the mandate. The CEOs of American

285
00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:02,160
Speaker 1: Airlines and Southwest Airlines actually hastified in front of Congress

286
00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:05,000
Speaker 1: that based on air filtration systems, airplanes are one of

287
00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:07,560
Speaker 1: the safest places you can be. So there's no merit

288
00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:10,560
Speaker 1: to this idea in the first place. It's really beyond

289
00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:16,400
Speaker 1: parody that the final group that the left wants masked up,

290
00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:18,800
Speaker 1: or the one that they have they've clung to the

291
00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:21,720
Speaker 1: most they've made mask up are those at lowest risk

292
00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:26,240
Speaker 1: children as we know. And in terms of group settings

293
00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:29,120
Speaker 1: congregate settings, as Fauci calls them to sound more scien

294
00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:32,480
Speaker 1: see he loves that mitigation congregate. All this stuff uses

295
00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:36,120
Speaker 1: these terms, so he sounds smart to dump people. But

296
00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:40,200
Speaker 1: of congregate settings out there, planes are probably the safest

297
00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:42,199
Speaker 1: place you can actually be when it comes to COVID,

298
00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:45,200
Speaker 1: and that's the final place that they're mandating masking as well.

299
00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:47,720
Speaker 1: They don't just have the science wrong, they have it

300
00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:51,280
Speaker 1: wrong in the worst way. In the most way on

301
00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:54,600
Speaker 1: these things. You know they're the furthest from possibly correct

302
00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:57,840
Speaker 1: in fact in all things. Because if we're talking about

303
00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:01,320
Speaker 1: pregnant man emojis and masks on two year olds and

304
00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:05,560
Speaker 1: masks on airplanes, Democrats aren't the party of science, they're

305
00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:09,480
Speaker 1: the party of anti science. Based on all the details

306
00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:11,480
Speaker 1: out there, a lot of you trying to save money

307
00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:14,400
Speaker 1: because of eight point five percent interest rates, and you

308
00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:17,040
Speaker 1: can kick Verizon AT and T T Mobile to the curb.

309
00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:20,000
Speaker 1: Keep your same phone number, keep your same phone and

310
00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:22,600
Speaker 1: save up to eight hundred dollars a year. Thanks to

00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:33,960
Speaker 1: you can also get unlimited data still save a fortune.

314
00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:37,000
Speaker 1: How do you do it? From your cell phone? Dial

315
00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:39,879
Speaker 1: pound two fifty say pure talk and you'll save an

316
00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:43,959
Speaker 1: additional fifty percent off your first month again, listen to me.

317
00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:48,040
Speaker 1: Up to eight hundred dollars a year, same phone number,

318
00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:50,680
Speaker 1: same phone, although you can upgrade a phone if you

319
00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:53,359
Speaker 1: would like as well. It's really simple. Can do less

320
00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:56,800
Speaker 1: than ten minutes. Get your phones dal pound two five

321
00:18:56,920 --> 00:19:00,160
Speaker 1: zero and say pure talk pound two five zero euro

322
00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:08,400
Speaker 1: say pure Talk. Do it today. Maybe, just maybe you'll

323
00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:12,320
Speaker 1: be able to fly or take an amtrack in the

324
00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:15,639
Speaker 1: next couple of days without having to mask up your

325
00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:17,960
Speaker 1: face with a cloth mask, as if that really does

326
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:23,320
Speaker 1: anything to stop the spread. This is a fascinating moment

327
00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:26,040
Speaker 1: because the judge Clay, what's the who's the judge? Is

328
00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:29,120
Speaker 1: the Trump appointee? I believe, thirty four years old female

329
00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:32,440
Speaker 1: judge in Florida. Right, yeah, just I'm gonna give her

330
00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:35,280
Speaker 1: credit because again I haven't read the opinion, but I

331
00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:37,040
Speaker 1: know what the opinion is going to be based on

332
00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:39,520
Speaker 1: because we've been talking about this for a year on

333
00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:44,080
Speaker 1: this show. So US District Judge Katherine Kimball Myzelle, I

334
00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:49,800
Speaker 1: might have been mispronouncing that President Trump appointee. By the way,

335
00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:53,440
Speaker 1: the important thing here so far is Justice Department spokeswoman

336
00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:57,679
Speaker 1: said the department was reviewing the ruling, but decline further comment.

337
00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:01,160
Speaker 1: White House didn't respond to a re quest for comment either.

338
00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:04,720
Speaker 1: That's somewhat interesting, Buck, because my thought would be that

339
00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:08,239
Speaker 1: they would immediately say, we believe this is you know,

340
00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:11,520
Speaker 1: this is an incorrect ruling, and we intend to immediately appeal.

341
00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:13,880
Speaker 1: I'm stunned that they haven't already put that statement out.

342
00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:17,320
Speaker 1: It is likely hasn't happened yet. It is likely that

343
00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:21,560
Speaker 1: a federal appeals court will weigh in with some kind

344
00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:26,879
Speaker 1: of stay and say, pending further review, the lower court

345
00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:29,919
Speaker 1: decision here out of Florida cannot be or should not

346
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:35,000
Speaker 1: be enacted, and therefore we'll go back to masking. Unfortunately,

347
00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:37,560
Speaker 1: I think that's what's going to happen. I'm not sure

348
00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:40,600
Speaker 1: that's what's going to happen, but it certainly looks likely

349
00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:45,000
Speaker 1: at this stage. What I'm fascinated by is who will

350
00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:48,040
Speaker 1: who will make a real argument in favor of this

351
00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:49,840
Speaker 1: in public? I mean, Jen Saki will go out there,

352
00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:51,639
Speaker 1: She'll say anything, as we know, She'll go out there

353
00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:53,800
Speaker 1: for the White House and say, well, we believe that

354
00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:55,920
Speaker 1: we need to take this seriously, and taking it seriously

355
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:59,240
Speaker 1: means continuing, you know, just blather, just blast your say.

356
00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:02,280
Speaker 1: You know, impersonation is underrated by the way. I listen

357
00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:05,480
Speaker 1: to her a lot. It's pretty good. And those press conferences,

358
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:07,720
Speaker 1: you know, put me in a red wig. I could

359
00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:11,920
Speaker 1: do a pretty good Saki impersonation. But there's nobody out

360
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:16,639
Speaker 1: there who actually makes a real argument, like what is

361
00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:19,359
Speaker 1: the purpose of masking up? On planes. I mean, really

362
00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:22,199
Speaker 1: get to its core. It's its essence here. It's to

363
00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:25,639
Speaker 1: stop the spread of coronavirus. That's moronic beyond words, right,

364
00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:29,520
Speaker 1: whether there's there's coronavirus spreading all over the country everywhere,

365
00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:34,320
Speaker 1: and planes are actually never proven as a high level

366
00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:37,480
Speaker 1: or even low level source of transmission because of the

367
00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:42,640
Speaker 1: hepiphiltration systems that they have installed. So there is absolutely

368
00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:44,960
Speaker 1: zero basis for this in terms of stopping the spread.

369
00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:48,720
Speaker 1: And then from an individual risk perspective, any person who

370
00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:51,080
Speaker 1: thinks I need my mask on the plane or I'm

371
00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:54,560
Speaker 1: at too much risk, are they masking up in every

372
00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:57,040
Speaker 1: restaurant they go to, in every workplace they go to,

373
00:21:57,359 --> 00:22:00,440
Speaker 1: and every bar they sit in, and every other facet

374
00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:03,040
Speaker 1: of their lives. If the answer to that is no,

375
00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:07,439
Speaker 1: then we are just viewing with their emotional unwellness and

376
00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:10,879
Speaker 1: pretending that this is actually having to do with science.

377
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:13,720
Speaker 1: There is no good faith argument for this. It does

378
00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:16,600
Speaker 1: not exist. Which is why I'm fascinated that there are

379
00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:18,919
Speaker 1: all these people, apparently Clay, all these blue checks on

380
00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:21,480
Speaker 1: the Twitter who are saying this is terrible, it's reckless,

381
00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:23,800
Speaker 1: it's so awful. I mean, in New York, you get

382
00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:26,360
Speaker 1: people in line to go to a Broadway play, Clay,

383
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:30,159
Speaker 1: I would wag your seventy five percent of them, or

384
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:32,240
Speaker 1: either doing a pre theater or post theater meal in

385
00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:34,359
Speaker 1: New York City at a restaurant next door, A lot

386
00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:35,520
Speaker 1: of the same people are going to sit in the

387
00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:39,320
Speaker 1: theater with no masks. No masks well, and by the way,

388
00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:43,440
Speaker 1: if you are in need of your security blanket, if

389
00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:45,200
Speaker 1: you are, and I think we need to start calling

390
00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:49,600
Speaker 1: these people huge losers, then you can still wear a mask.

391
00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:53,399
Speaker 1: There's not anything in this federal judge ruling that says

392
00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:57,359
Speaker 1: you cannot wear a mask. It's just saying that everyone

393
00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:01,919
Speaker 1: doesn't have to wear a mask. Apologies to the people

394
00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:05,040
Speaker 1: in the City of Brotherly Love. Are Clay and Buck

395
00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:08,959
Speaker 1: fans in Philadelphia in that area who are listening to

396
00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:13,919
Speaker 1: us right now. Other than Philadelphia right now, Buck, I

397
00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:17,879
Speaker 1: don't believe there is any place in America that is

398
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:27,000
Speaker 1: requiring that people wear masks indoors other than airplanes, trains, airports.

399
00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:32,119
Speaker 1: In other words, I and many out there listening to

400
00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:34,560
Speaker 1: us right now. Certainly, if you live in a red state,

401
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:40,440
Speaker 1: the only place in the state of Tennessee that requires

402
00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:46,199
Speaker 1: a mask is the airport and the airplane. Otherwise, I

403
00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:50,359
Speaker 1: can be anywhere in my entire state and there is

404
00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:54,080
Speaker 1: no mask mandate to go or see or do anything.

405
00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:59,280
Speaker 1: Yet when I pull my car up park walk into

406
00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:02,040
Speaker 1: the airport, I have to put a mask on. It's

407
00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:04,639
Speaker 1: the only place in the entire state now where I

408
00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:06,560
Speaker 1: have to do that, and then I have to keep

409
00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:09,560
Speaker 1: it on theoretically when I get on the airplane. So

410
00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:13,240
Speaker 1: it is utterly nonsensical on every level. And I give

411
00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:17,080
Speaker 1: credit to this woman, this judge appointed district court judge

412
00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:21,720
Speaker 1: by Trump, for actually standing up against this. And by

413
00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:23,280
Speaker 1: the way, we should mention it's not going to be

414
00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:26,520
Speaker 1: a surprise to anyone out there, but Florida Governor Ron

415
00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:30,120
Speaker 1: DeSantis has already weighed in great to see a federal

416
00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:34,240
Speaker 1: judge in Florida follow the law and reject the Biden

417
00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:40,800
Speaker 1: transportation mask mandate. Both airline employees and passengers deserve to

418
00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:45,920
Speaker 1: have this misery end. A man. Indeed, I gotta tell

419
00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:49,960
Speaker 1: you one reason that Democrats have been so dug in

420
00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:53,439
Speaker 1: on the plane mandate is because it's a place where

421
00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:56,960
Speaker 1: it's federal law. So this is where all you read

422
00:24:57,000 --> 00:24:59,600
Speaker 1: staters out there, all you people in places like Tennessee

423
00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:03,040
Speaker 1: and tech Is the Libs get their opportunity to poke

424
00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:05,360
Speaker 1: you in the eye or the face over this one.

425
00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:08,159
Speaker 1: So they love that. You know. Otherwise, if you live

426
00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:11,560
Speaker 1: in Tennessee, Texas, Florida, Wyoming, you know, go down the

427
00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:14,320
Speaker 1: list right the Dakotas. You don't have to worry about

428
00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:16,600
Speaker 1: all the COVID madness of the Blue states. Oh yes

429
00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:18,600
Speaker 1: you do when it comes to flying on planes, when

430
00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:21,280
Speaker 1: it comes to traveling. So the Libs love that, right,

431
00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:25,400
Speaker 1: That's just they just enjoy agitating those people who live

432
00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:28,360
Speaker 1: in red states that don't have to continue to pretend

433
00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:31,640
Speaker 1: to go through the make believe that the anxiety blankets

434
00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:35,239
Speaker 1: that people have over their faces do anything. But you know,

435
00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:38,840
Speaker 1: you see this Clay, And I think there's also for

436
00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:42,359
Speaker 1: a lot of people a recognition that planes are the

437
00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:45,439
Speaker 1: place where they have the most authority. You know, you

438
00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:49,359
Speaker 1: think about restaurants. Restaurants really don't want to get into

439
00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:50,960
Speaker 1: There's a lot of other places you can go, a

440
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:52,919
Speaker 1: lot other places you can eat, you can sell it, right,

441
00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:54,679
Speaker 1: they don't really want to get into it with you

442
00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:57,439
Speaker 1: over and like if it let's be honest, if I'm

443
00:25:57,480 --> 00:25:59,320
Speaker 1: in a restaurant and I want to make someone's life

444
00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:01,280
Speaker 1: miserable because they don't you know, they want to make

445
00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:04,040
Speaker 1: me mask up as I go to sit to the table. Yeah,

446
00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:06,240
Speaker 1: what are they gonna call the cops? Oh, I'll be

447
00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:08,560
Speaker 1: gone before the cops get there. Like just being realistic

448
00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:12,120
Speaker 1: about it. If you argue with any of the masks

449
00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:16,360
Speaker 1: Stazi on your American flight, your Delta flight, United or

450
00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:20,280
Speaker 1: Heaven Forbid, Spirit Airlines, which is obviously my airline of choice,

451
00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:23,840
Speaker 1: if you argue with any of them, not only will

452
00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:25,800
Speaker 1: they ruin your day, kick you off the flight, and

453
00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:28,040
Speaker 1: there's no with fans or butts, they might ban you

454
00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:30,640
Speaker 1: from the flight forever. I mean, you know, imagine Joe's

455
00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:33,040
Speaker 1: Pizzeria being like, I'm gonna ban you forever for the mask.

456
00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:36,159
Speaker 1: You like, I'll get my pizza somewhere else. But the

457
00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:39,560
Speaker 1: airlines had a lot of authority over this, more than

458
00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:42,200
Speaker 1: any other place. It really felt like in America they

459
00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:46,800
Speaker 1: could just ram home the COVID anxiety madness, and the

460
00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:49,320
Speaker 1: libs just loved it. They loved it. It was always

461
00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:53,600
Speaker 1: reinforcing their neuroses. Well, not only that, it's way easier

462
00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:56,199
Speaker 1: to ban someone on an airplane when you have to

463
00:26:56,240 --> 00:27:00,000
Speaker 1: provide so much information in order to get on an airplane.

464
00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:02,600
Speaker 1: Right If Joe's Pizza gets mad at you one day

465
00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:08,560
Speaker 1: and they're like, you're never allowed in here again said

466
00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:12,280
Speaker 1: I love you, Pizza, the odds of them really follow

467
00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:16,120
Speaker 1: it through are low. Uh Whereas I mean, like, I'm

468
00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:17,919
Speaker 1: gonna be honest, I know there are people listening to

469
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:19,960
Speaker 1: us right now who probably have gotten a band over

470
00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:22,960
Speaker 1: this stupid mask mandate from an airline. It kind of

471
00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:25,359
Speaker 1: sucks when you want to go to a town and

472
00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:28,800
Speaker 1: in your hometown the only place and way that you

473
00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:33,720
Speaker 1: can fly NonStop is through that particular airline, and then

474
00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:36,720
Speaker 1: you can't even book it. Like that's like, I don't

475
00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:38,480
Speaker 1: know what they would have to say to me. People

476
00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:40,560
Speaker 1: make fun of me because I'm on Southwest Airlines all

477
00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:45,200
Speaker 1: the time, but it's the easiest airline to fly in Nashville.

478
00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:47,159
Speaker 1: It's easy to book on and off. You know, they

479
00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:49,359
Speaker 1: should be sponsoring this show, probably for the amount of

480
00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:52,960
Speaker 1: time I fly on their airline. But if they told

481
00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:55,879
Speaker 1: me that I couldn't fly Southwest anymore, I wouldn't be

482
00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:59,200
Speaker 1: able to travel anywhere easily in Nashville. I mean, Rob

483
00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:02,600
Speaker 1: O'Neill's a friend, a great guy Navy seal guy who

484
00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:05,520
Speaker 1: shot bin Laden, best known as remember when they This

485
00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:08,040
Speaker 1: was from Business Insider back in August of twenty twenty,

486
00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:11,200
Speaker 1: Navy seal who killed Osama bin Laden banned from Delta

487
00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:14,960
Speaker 1: for refusing to wear a mask and tweeting about it.

488
00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:18,960
Speaker 1: So that also, that also was a thing that could happen.

489
00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:23,400
Speaker 1: So if you spoke out publicly against the mask policy

490
00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:26,040
Speaker 1: on these planes, they might decide to punish you even

491
00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:31,160
Speaker 1: further for your insolence. Yes, but this has been so stupid,

492
00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:35,080
Speaker 1: and honestly, there should be such a sense of growing

493
00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:40,080
Speaker 1: shame for the Siberian prison guards of the Sky who

494
00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:42,840
Speaker 1: were enforcing this stuff. I'm not talking about the people

495
00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:45,440
Speaker 1: who were cool about them, like, hey, they're gonna yell

496
00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:47,000
Speaker 1: at you unless you know, can you just do me

497
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:49,040
Speaker 1: a favor, like of course, right, Like I don't want

498
00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:52,040
Speaker 1: anyone getting fired for this either. But that's not what

499
00:28:52,160 --> 00:28:54,719
Speaker 1: I had. I had people that were like, you mask up,

500
00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:56,880
Speaker 1: and you mask until I tell you you can't mask up.

501
00:28:56,920 --> 00:29:01,200
Speaker 1: I had some psychopaths in the sky. When they do

502
00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:05,479
Speaker 1: all the retrospectives on the COVID era, and there are

503
00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:07,120
Speaker 1: a lot of people who are going to have kids

504
00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:10,320
Speaker 1: and grandkids that are either so young that they won't

505
00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:13,520
Speaker 1: remember it, or they haven't even been born yet. They're

506
00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:16,320
Speaker 1: going to see this and they're gonna say, wait a minute,

507
00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:19,320
Speaker 1: Mom and dad, Wait a minute, grandma and grandpa. You're

508
00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:21,440
Speaker 1: telling me that they told you that you had to

509
00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:24,400
Speaker 1: wear a mask on the airplane, but you took it

510
00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:28,320
Speaker 1: off when you ate or drank, and they claimed that

511
00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:32,680
Speaker 1: that made you safe on the airplane. And you're gonna say, yes,

512
00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:36,480
Speaker 1: that was the rule that everybody had to follow. And

513
00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:41,320
Speaker 1: the kid, the grandkid or the kid, they're going to say, man,

514
00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:45,320
Speaker 1: you guys were all idiots, and you're going to say yes,

515
00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:47,800
Speaker 1: much like buck. Do you ever talk to people about

516
00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:50,200
Speaker 1: when you used to be able to smoke on an airplane?

517
00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:53,400
Speaker 1: You know, and you see like the nineteen sixties or

518
00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:57,160
Speaker 1: the nineteen fifties television shows or movies or whatever that

519
00:29:57,200 --> 00:29:59,720
Speaker 1: are set there, and you're like, man, that must have

520
00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:03,040
Speaker 1: really he sucked to have everybody just smoking cigarettes on

521
00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:05,760
Speaker 1: an airplane when you have the air filtration system that

522
00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:07,680
Speaker 1: defeated the whole purpose. Yeah, it was kind of crazy,

523
00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:11,680
Speaker 1: kind of dumb. Well, masks are that for our generation.

524
00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:14,840
Speaker 1: Let's hope. I don't think they will, but let's hope

525
00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:19,000
Speaker 1: that the Biden administration just chooses not to appeal and

526
00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:21,120
Speaker 1: fight back against this. I think we all know that

527
00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:24,680
Speaker 1: they will. But until they actually do and put out

528
00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:27,120
Speaker 1: that statement, and at least so far they haven't done it,

529
00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:30,960
Speaker 1: maybe there are some people in the Biden administration saying, hey,

530
00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:35,520
Speaker 1: this absolutely makes no sense, and so yeah, the blue

531
00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:39,160
Speaker 1: checks are furious. This blue check says. The judge who

532
00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:42,520
Speaker 1: made this ruling, Katherine Kimball, is thirty five years old.

533
00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:46,160
Speaker 1: She was confirmed at the age of at thirty three.

534
00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:51,440
Speaker 1: Judiciary matters. Oh that stinks. Tough break, but guess what

535
00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:55,840
Speaker 1: she got this one right? Crime Moore lips Amen and

536

00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:18,440

546

553
00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:09,800
Speaker 1: Welcome and final segment play Travis buck Sexton Show about

554
00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:16,480
Speaker 1: to tweet out the judgment from the hero judge down

555
00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:18,800
Speaker 1: in the state of Florida that has at least been

556
00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:23,760
Speaker 1: willing to acknowledge that the mandate exceeds the CDC statutory authority,

557
00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:27,280
Speaker 1: violates the procedures required. I'm reading from her order right

558
00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:34,000
Speaker 1: now saying the party's competed. Basically, the court concludes the

559
00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:39,080
Speaker 1: MASK mandate exceeds the CDC's statutory authority and violates the

560
00:32:39,160 --> 00:32:45,080
Speaker 1: procedures required for agency rulemaking under the APA. Accordingly, the

561
00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:49,720
Speaker 1: Court vacates the mandate and remands it to the CDC.

562
00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:54,880
Speaker 1: This is the federal court judge thirty five year old

563
00:32:54,920 --> 00:33:00,720
Speaker 1: now Trump appointee Heroic. I'm I'm not exaggerating this right now, Buck,

564
00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:04,960
Speaker 1: I mean, as I'm reading this opinion, I am just

565
00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:09,080
Speaker 1: I feel like, finally sanity is starting to prevail now again.

566
00:33:09,200 --> 00:33:10,960
Speaker 1: I'm sure it's going to be appealed. I'm sure it's

567
00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:13,280
Speaker 1: going to be stayed pending that appeal. All these things

568
00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:16,680
Speaker 1: would be my expectation. So far, the Biden Justice Department

569
00:33:16,760 --> 00:33:19,920
Speaker 1: has not issued a statement saying, hey, we believe there's

570
00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:23,600
Speaker 1: no basis whatsoever for this. And we've got some callers

571
00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:26,920
Speaker 1: who are saying they are excited people at airports who

572
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:30,160
Speaker 1: are finding out that this news now exists and it's spreading,

573
00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:32,240
Speaker 1: at least for the moment, this is the law of

574
00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:36,360
Speaker 1: the land. We've got Kevin in Houston, Texas says his

575
00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:39,800
Speaker 1: wife is at the airport right now. Kevin, what's going on. Yeah,

576
00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:42,360
Speaker 1: she's actually at the air Orlando airport with my daughter,

577
00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:46,000
Speaker 1: and it's spreading. She said that people are literally like

578
00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:49,480
Speaker 1: checking their phones, taking off the mask, walking down down

579
00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:52,239
Speaker 1: the jolways and whatnot. So it's definitely getting out there,

580
00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:55,040
Speaker 1: which I think is a fantastic thing. Oh, I think

581
00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:58,200
Speaker 1: you're gonna see You're gonna see some airline employees who

582
00:33:58,280 --> 00:34:01,680
Speaker 1: think that they're gonna just enforce us anyway. And there'll

583
00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:04,160
Speaker 1: probably be videos of this breaking in the next few hours,

584
00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:06,440
Speaker 1: because this is going to get clay for some people.

585
00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:10,640
Speaker 1: They have a they have a mask based mental illness.

586
00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:13,719
Speaker 1: It really they think that unless you mask up when

587
00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:17,160
Speaker 1: they say so, you're literally killing people. They actually still

588
00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:19,359
Speaker 1: there are people out there who think that they all

589
00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:21,480
Speaker 1: vote Democrat. By the way, I would just note that

590
00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:24,759
Speaker 1: that is an unfortunately direct correlation and that's why we

591
00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:27,279
Speaker 1: need to kick their ass in November. But yeah, I

592
00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:29,760
Speaker 1: bet there are people listening to us right now driving

593
00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:32,680
Speaker 1: to the airport who are thinking to themselves, and by

594
00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:35,840
Speaker 1: the way, as long as this ruling is officially in effect,

595
00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:38,680
Speaker 1: who are going to walk into the airport, take their

596
00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:41,080
Speaker 1: masks off, and when they're told to put a mask

597
00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:44,760
Speaker 1: back on, are going to say, actually, federal court judge

598
00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:47,560
Speaker 1: just struck down the authority that the CDC has to

599
00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:54,120
Speaker 1: implement this policy. Sean in New Orleans, Sean, what's going on? Hello? Hello, Hey,

600
00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:56,360
Speaker 1: I quick store. I just flew home from Vegas on

601
00:34:56,440 --> 00:35:00,560
Speaker 1: Southwest two days ago and we'll lay over in Houston.

602
00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:03,759
Speaker 1: And I got to the airport in Vegas. Nobody had

603
00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:05,680
Speaker 1: a mask on. I didn't wear one. TSA made me

604
00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:07,400
Speaker 1: put one on to go through security. I took it

605
00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:10,560
Speaker 1: right back off. No problems, all the way through boarding

606
00:35:10,560 --> 00:35:12,920
Speaker 1: the airplane, the flight, all the way to Houston, no issues.

607
00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:16,960
Speaker 1: They did the standard spiel. Hey, this is a federal mandate,

608
00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:19,200
Speaker 1: put your mask on. Hardly anybody on the plane had

609
00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:22,120
Speaker 1: it on. Switched planes in Houston to my follow through

610
00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:25,360
Speaker 1: late coming back home on Southwest again, and there was

611
00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:29,359
Speaker 1: an absolute mask Nazi flight attendant. That I mean, it's

612
00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:31,400
Speaker 1: a forty minute flight from New Orleans Vegas, and she

613
00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:34,360
Speaker 1: probably talked about the mask the whole time. It was unreal.

614
00:35:34,719 --> 00:35:38,359
Speaker 1: I couldn't believe. It. Is interesting because I have noticed this, Buck,

615
00:35:38,400 --> 00:35:41,279
Speaker 1: and I think you have probably as well, that the

616
00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:48,239
Speaker 1: individual policing of masks varies wildly now depending on which
