WEBVTT - Smollett's Lies Collapse 0:00:10.840 --> 0:00:16.280 You are entering the freedom hunt. The declaration of emergency 0:00:16.360 --> 0:00:19.239 has occurred, but the President of the United States still 0:00:19.280 --> 0:00:21.360 has much work to do. We'll talk about where the 0:00:21.400 --> 0:00:25.240 immigration fight stands. And also, oh, it looks like Jesse 0:00:25.520 --> 0:00:30.040 Smollett was in fact engaged in hopes. We will talk 0:00:30.040 --> 0:00:32.320 about that and how we saw it all coming coming up. 0:00:33.320 --> 0:00:36.960 This is the buck Sexton Show, where the mission or 0:00:37.040 --> 0:00:41.160 mission is to decode what really matters with actionable intelligence. 0:00:43.360 --> 0:00:46.920 Make no mistake American, You're a great American. Again the 0:00:47.080 --> 0:00:59.520 buck Sexton Show begins. Remember the actor and musician Jesse 0:00:59.680 --> 0:01:03.080 Small from the hit show Empire was attacked and beaten 0:01:03.120 --> 0:01:06.640 early this morning in Chicago, where two individuals yelled out 0:01:06.760 --> 0:01:11.080 racial and homophobic slurs. Investigators say one of the offenders 0:01:11.080 --> 0:01:14.640 wrapped a rope around Smalett's neck with a noose around 0:01:14.680 --> 0:01:18.760 his neck and hospitalized. Empire star Jesse Smalett was the 0:01:18.840 --> 0:01:22.360 victim of a vicious racist and homophobic attack and his 0:01:22.400 --> 0:01:27.080 attackers hurled racial and homophobic slurs. Not only homophobia, We're 0:01:27.080 --> 0:01:31.240 talking about racism, We're talking about hate with steroids. The 0:01:31.280 --> 0:01:35.160 offenders uttered this is anaga country, and Senator Corey Booker 0:01:35.240 --> 0:01:38.440 said the vicious attack when actor Jesse was an attempt 0:01:38.480 --> 0:01:41.520 at modern day lynching. Kamala Harris calling the attack and 0:01:41.640 --> 0:01:44.920 attempted modern day lynching. Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi 0:01:45.000 --> 0:01:48.680 tweeting the racist, homophobic attack on Jesse Smollette is an 0:01:48.680 --> 0:01:52.040 affront where humanity. I'm so shaken by the story. This 0:01:52.160 --> 0:01:55.400 is horrible to report. This is a horrible story, rendous 0:01:55.520 --> 0:01:59.680 and unacceptable, absolutely despicable. Whom this is America in twenty 0:01:59.760 --> 0:02:06.200 night Taylor Oh, looks like the media got this one 0:02:06.320 --> 0:02:09.560 wrong too. Folks, Welcome to the Buck Sexton Show. My 0:02:09.840 --> 0:02:13.160 we have a lot to talk about today on President's Day, 0:02:13.720 --> 0:02:16.960 and I'm, for one, I'm very much looking forward to it. Now. 0:02:17.000 --> 0:02:21.680 I'm gonna try to limit the amount of end zone 0:02:21.840 --> 0:02:24.360 dancing that we do today on the show. But those 0:02:24.400 --> 0:02:28.720 of you who listen daily know that we have been 0:02:28.800 --> 0:02:34.000 on this Jesse Smollett fiasco from the start. That as 0:02:34.040 --> 0:02:38.400 soon as I heard the details of this attack, I said, 0:02:38.520 --> 0:02:41.240 I don't buy it. And then as soon as we 0:02:41.360 --> 0:02:44.440 heard his reaction, Jesse Smollett, this actor from the show 0:02:44.520 --> 0:02:49.440 Empire to the police, didn't want to give them his phone, 0:02:49.639 --> 0:02:51.560 give redacted Ragger I said, no, I'm sorry. This is 0:02:51.600 --> 0:02:56.400 just no. This is not credible, This is not believable. 0:02:57.600 --> 0:02:59.760 This is one of these instances where we should all 0:02:59.760 --> 0:03:02.600 take a step back and say, hold on a second, 0:03:03.160 --> 0:03:07.560 does this make sense? But did the media do that? No? 0:03:07.760 --> 0:03:12.519 They did not. They did not. They saw an opportunity 0:03:13.000 --> 0:03:18.240 to run with their preferred narrative, and they decided to 0:03:18.360 --> 0:03:21.959 take it. The narrative, of course, being that Trump has 0:03:22.000 --> 0:03:25.720 made this country so much more racist than it was previously, 0:03:25.760 --> 0:03:30.560 that he's such a terrible person, and that Trump's supporters. 0:03:30.680 --> 0:03:33.959 Remember this was really about his supporters as well, Our 0:03:34.120 --> 0:03:40.600 vile bigots, anti gay, violent, nasty, horrible people and so 0:03:40.680 --> 0:03:44.400 weird as to be walking around Chicago at two o'clock 0:03:44.440 --> 0:03:48.320 in the morning with a noose to throw around a 0:03:49.080 --> 0:03:55.320 black actor's neck while they yelled this is maga country. 0:03:56.840 --> 0:04:00.680 I don't think so. I didn't think so. In fact, 0:04:00.880 --> 0:04:03.520 as you know, I've been doing updates on this, stretching 0:04:03.520 --> 0:04:07.240 back now for a couple of weeks, saying, mmm, something's 0:04:07.280 --> 0:04:10.320 up here, folks. Maybe I remember I told you, Maybe 0:04:10.320 --> 0:04:14.080 there was an exchange of some kind, Maybe he did 0:04:14.160 --> 0:04:17.839 have some kind of a fight, but or he just 0:04:17.880 --> 0:04:19.320 made the whole thing up, but it seemed to me 0:04:19.360 --> 0:04:22.279 a little bit much for him to just wholesale have 0:04:22.440 --> 0:04:24.720 had nothing to base this on. So what we find 0:04:24.760 --> 0:04:27.560 out now is that two brothers who just came back 0:04:27.600 --> 0:04:29.800 from Nigeria. I believe they were born in Chicago. I 0:04:29.880 --> 0:04:32.599 believe they are US citizens, just came back from Nigeria, 0:04:32.839 --> 0:04:35.760 their weightlifters. One of them had been on Smallett shows 0:04:35.839 --> 0:04:38.960 as an extra. They wanted to break into acting. And 0:04:39.160 --> 0:04:42.040 the reporting, now this is not confirmed by the Chicago 0:04:42.200 --> 0:04:48.760 Police Department yet, but the reporting says that Smallett paid 0:04:48.800 --> 0:04:55.000 them a few thousand dollars to engage in this faux 0:04:55.080 --> 0:05:01.320 hate crime against him, and that the rope that was used, 0:05:01.320 --> 0:05:03.560 and this was always we can go through what some 0:05:03.600 --> 0:05:05.520 of the tells were here, how do we know this 0:05:05.600 --> 0:05:08.599 was crap? Might be a worthwhile exercise to go back 0:05:08.600 --> 0:05:11.839 and look at some of it, but that the rope 0:05:11.920 --> 0:05:15.800 was bought at a Chicago store at Smollet's behassed by 0:05:15.880 --> 0:05:19.760 these two individuals, the two brothers, for him, and that 0:05:19.839 --> 0:05:21.520 this was all it was all a hoax, It was 0:05:21.520 --> 0:05:25.000 all a put on. It was a plot for attention, 0:05:25.120 --> 0:05:30.279 for sympathy, to raise his profile. And now here we are, 0:05:31.200 --> 0:05:37.919 with a few weeks gone by of bashing Trump, bashing 0:05:37.920 --> 0:05:39.920 his supporters. Look at how racists they are. Look at it, 0:05:40.080 --> 0:05:45.040 and it's a fake. It's a fake. And then, without 0:05:45.520 --> 0:05:51.120 any any shred of decency or honesty, the media trends 0:05:51.120 --> 0:05:53.000 around and says, oh, no, we yeah, we handle this 0:05:53.040 --> 0:05:58.479 one right, We did this one the right way. And oh, 0:05:58.600 --> 0:06:02.560 the people who are running around and celebrating that this 0:06:02.680 --> 0:06:05.200 is a hoax, they didn't understand how terrible it really 0:06:05.279 --> 0:06:07.960 is out there, all these hate crimes that happen, and 0:06:09.320 --> 0:06:11.760 they don't understand how awful it is in this country, 0:06:12.800 --> 0:06:17.560 all these victimized groups. I like crunch the numbers over 0:06:17.560 --> 0:06:21.919 the weekend, and let me tell you that the desire 0:06:22.040 --> 0:06:24.560 for there to be hate crimes to report on them 0:06:24.600 --> 0:06:29.920 in the media obviously greatly outstrips the number of real 0:06:29.960 --> 0:06:33.440 hate crimes that occur in any given year, because there 0:06:33.440 --> 0:06:38.240 are lots and lots and lots of high profile, very 0:06:38.400 --> 0:06:42.480 fake hate crimes that are reported, as we know, and 0:06:42.600 --> 0:06:45.719 Island fact go through and give you a whole bunch 0:06:45.760 --> 0:06:48.680 of them later on this hour, just just to give 0:06:48.720 --> 0:06:51.400 you a taste, just just to jog the memory of 0:06:51.800 --> 0:06:54.760 you know, how many fake How many fake robberies do 0:06:54.800 --> 0:06:56.640 you hear about? How many fake murders do you hear about? 0:06:56.680 --> 0:06:58.920 Very few? How many fake hate crimes you hear about? 0:06:58.920 --> 0:07:02.480 A lot? A lot. So we have a society now 0:07:02.520 --> 0:07:06.279 that is obsessed with victimhood and with victimhood as a 0:07:06.360 --> 0:07:11.800 means of hurting other people, right, using that victimhood, wielding 0:07:11.840 --> 0:07:13.520 it as a club, as a weapon against people that 0:07:13.560 --> 0:07:16.440 you don't like or that you disagree with, and seizing 0:07:16.480 --> 0:07:19.240 power for yourself in the process too. Victimhood is not 0:07:19.240 --> 0:07:22.280 just a passive thing. It's not just for sympathy. It's 0:07:22.320 --> 0:07:26.320 in the pursuit of power. Right. When people claim victimization, 0:07:26.600 --> 0:07:29.320 they want the state to act on their behalf. They 0:07:29.320 --> 0:07:31.880 want the state to pass laws or to take action 0:07:32.320 --> 0:07:35.400 against those that they say are victimizing them. And when 0:07:35.440 --> 0:07:37.880 you're talking about the victimization of a group at the 0:07:37.960 --> 0:07:42.280 hands of another group, whether it's white males or conservative 0:07:42.360 --> 0:07:48.960 or whatever it may be, your lack of individual culpability 0:07:49.560 --> 0:07:53.080 is no protection. Right. You know, no one is saying 0:07:53.080 --> 0:07:55.480 that you or I would have to, for example, pay 0:07:55.560 --> 0:07:59.000 reparations because of something that we had done. It is 0:07:59.000 --> 0:08:02.840 because of our existence in a class that under the 0:08:02.960 --> 0:08:08.120 logic of reparations, had previously and historically oppressed another class, 0:08:08.280 --> 0:08:10.960 and so therefore you and I today must pay for this. 0:08:11.720 --> 0:08:14.600 We've done nothing wrong, but it doesn't matter because it's 0:08:14.600 --> 0:08:19.480 about the collective, not the individual. This is obviously very 0:08:19.560 --> 0:08:27.200 disturbing stuff. But even though the media should feel utterly humiliated, 0:08:27.240 --> 0:08:31.240 this coming after the BuzzFeed fake news debacle, which came 0:08:31.320 --> 0:08:36.240 right before the Covington kids mess, where the media or 0:08:36.440 --> 0:08:39.240 saw an opportunity to tell a story about Trump world, 0:08:39.280 --> 0:08:41.240 I mean, they are really they are delusional. They have 0:08:41.400 --> 0:08:47.640 lost it. They're not reasonable, rational people anymore. They see 0:08:47.640 --> 0:08:54.280 a maga hat and they don't have any ability to 0:08:55.400 --> 0:08:58.199 reason through things. Anywhere. It's always, oh my gosh, this 0:08:58.400 --> 0:09:02.440 maga hat. It is truly triggered for them. It drives 0:09:02.480 --> 0:09:05.880 him into fits of rage or fear. They view the 0:09:05.960 --> 0:09:12.040 maga hath the supporting garment, if you will, of this administration, 0:09:12.720 --> 0:09:15.760 as as some have said on TV, almost like the 0:09:15.880 --> 0:09:18.319 almost like a white hood for the KKK, or or 0:09:18.840 --> 0:09:23.240 a Nazi symbol, a swastika. That's the same kind of 0:09:24.559 --> 0:09:28.440 emotional reaction that they give to it. And it's appalling 0:09:28.480 --> 0:09:31.240 and it's stupid. That it's unfair and it's destructive. But 0:09:32.000 --> 0:09:33.880 this is what we are up against. This is how 0:09:33.920 --> 0:09:37.160 the other side views it, and we should at least 0:09:37.280 --> 0:09:39.080 know that much as we talk about it. I mean, 0:09:39.120 --> 0:09:44.080 you had people blaming Trump for this. I mean, here, 0:09:44.200 --> 0:09:48.680 here's Maxine Waters play seven. We'd have to understand this 0:09:48.840 --> 0:09:53.000 is happening. It's coming from the President of the United States. 0:09:53.120 --> 0:09:57.840 He's dog whistland every day. He's separating and dividing, and 0:09:57.880 --> 0:10:02.840 he is basically embolding those folks who failed this way. 0:10:04.200 --> 0:10:07.600 Does she apologize to Trump now for that? I want 0:10:07.600 --> 0:10:10.480 to know is how is Trump responsible for a lie? 0:10:11.080 --> 0:10:13.880 A thing that did not happen? How can Trump be 0:10:13.960 --> 0:10:18.080 responsible for a non action? You know, am I responsible 0:10:18.120 --> 0:10:20.400 for the nuclear war that did not happen on the 0:10:20.480 --> 0:10:23.440 Korean peninsula yesterday? I don't know how it could be 0:10:23.480 --> 0:10:26.840 held responsible for that. It didn't happen. Is it my fault? 0:10:29.160 --> 0:10:31.120 This starts to feel like we're walking around some kind 0:10:31.160 --> 0:10:35.600 of you know, an insane asylum. Lives are the ones 0:10:35.720 --> 0:10:38.640 just walking in circles muttering to themselves? What are they 0:10:38.679 --> 0:10:41.920 talking about? I would note that even though they're wrong 0:10:41.960 --> 0:10:43.920 on this, you know where they're gonna go with it. Oh, 0:10:43.960 --> 0:10:48.760 it's raising awareness. Oh it shows us while this one 0:10:48.840 --> 0:10:51.200 may be untrue and I'm being This is what the 0:10:51.240 --> 0:10:53.040 meeting has been saying all day. People have come at 0:10:53.080 --> 0:10:56.400 me on Twitter about this too, that what this shows 0:10:56.520 --> 0:10:59.200 us is that there are some people who just don't 0:10:59.240 --> 0:11:02.680 want to believe in all that there's all this hate 0:11:02.679 --> 0:11:04.720 and racism that occurs in the country all the time. 0:11:04.840 --> 0:11:07.040 And to that, I say, no, I just didn't want 0:11:07.040 --> 0:11:09.440 to believe that this was one of those times because 0:11:09.480 --> 0:11:12.800 it wasn't. And I was right with libs though being 0:11:12.880 --> 0:11:17.040 right doesn't matter, it's about the narrative. Being right isn't 0:11:17.080 --> 0:11:21.040 a defense. I think that I obviously thought Jesse Smollett 0:11:21.080 --> 0:11:24.000 was lying all along. I was right. You know what 0:11:24.080 --> 0:11:27.240 that proves to libs that I don't see how racist 0:11:27.240 --> 0:11:29.400 and bad America really is and there must be maybe 0:11:29.400 --> 0:11:31.920 I'm some alt right bad person myself. There must be 0:11:31.960 --> 0:11:36.920 something wrong with me. Meanwhile, I'm right, they were wrong. 0:11:37.600 --> 0:11:40.760 Does that factor into this at all? And I've known 0:11:40.760 --> 0:11:42.719 I was known I was right all, you know, for 0:11:43.080 --> 0:11:45.480 days and days and days now, And it's not like 0:11:45.520 --> 0:11:47.360 this was some big surprise. I was on Fox on 0:11:47.440 --> 0:11:54.120 Friday saying This is not believable. This is implausible, I 0:11:54.120 --> 0:11:56.400 think was the word I used. It just doesn't add up, 0:11:56.480 --> 0:11:59.160 does not make sense. Now, now there's this effort to 0:11:59.160 --> 0:12:01.360 try and protect us. See, they don't want to they 0:12:01.400 --> 0:12:03.560 don't want to go there. The media doesn't want to 0:12:03.600 --> 0:12:06.160 have to reckon with the fact that they are an 0:12:06.200 --> 0:12:08.680 ideological monolith, that they all think the same way, that 0:12:08.720 --> 0:12:12.360 they all have these biases that they bring to these 0:12:12.440 --> 0:12:15.040 this subject matter, and that they're desperate to have the 0:12:15.160 --> 0:12:17.720 in group, to have their fellow journalists think highly of them. 0:12:18.200 --> 0:12:22.560 And they all have internalized this wokeness, this social justice 0:12:22.679 --> 0:12:29.960 crap that is intellectually garbage and that hurts the country, 0:12:31.600 --> 0:12:36.240 that hurts relationships between normal Americans day and day out. 0:12:36.320 --> 0:12:39.800 This idea that we're we're all just this big intersection 0:12:40.640 --> 0:12:43.880 of different layers of oppression, and this is how they 0:12:43.920 --> 0:12:48.720 approach it, and that the only way to self actualize, 0:12:48.720 --> 0:12:51.320 the only way to reach one's potential is to tear 0:12:51.360 --> 0:12:55.960 down other people who are outside of the preferred victimology narrative. 0:12:59.559 --> 0:13:02.040 There's no honesty now around this. There's no effort to 0:13:02.080 --> 0:13:04.080 try and fix in the media what's been broken here 0:13:04.120 --> 0:13:08.480 here here's one of these from from Vox, which is 0:13:08.520 --> 0:13:11.440 a laughing stock as as a site. I mean, it's 0:13:11.480 --> 0:13:15.480 just the most left wing garbage ee garbage you could 0:13:15.480 --> 0:13:19.319 find anywhere. And one of their one of their explainer 0:13:19.360 --> 0:13:21.880 people or whatever, goes on CNN and just says things 0:13:21.920 --> 0:13:23.960 that aren't true. But it doesn't. See, the truth doesn't 0:13:23.960 --> 0:13:25.959 really matter these people. They want to always tell us, oh, 0:13:26.000 --> 0:13:28.040 Trump lied about this little thing or that little thing. 0:13:28.160 --> 0:13:32.880 These people don't care about the truth. They're propagandists. Here's 0:13:32.920 --> 0:13:35.160 what they said. Here's what one of the Vox propagandist 0:13:35.160 --> 0:13:39.360 said about smaller play for the MAGA quote. I remember 0:13:39.400 --> 0:13:43.080 reading about the story and looking for a real reputable 0:13:43.160 --> 0:13:46.160 media outlet reporting on that, and I could not find one. Right, 0:13:46.440 --> 0:13:50.040 the people who were repeating that quote, we're not news outlets. 0:13:50.080 --> 0:13:53.360 We're not media outlets. It was repeated by sure people 0:13:53.400 --> 0:13:55.640 who maybe had good intentions of wanting to spread the 0:13:55.679 --> 0:13:57.920 story and had empathy for what they thought was, you know, 0:13:57.960 --> 0:14:01.080 a real story. But we can't confuse celebrity tweets with 0:14:01.160 --> 0:14:04.120 the media and the press. And you know, so you're 0:14:04.160 --> 0:14:07.320 saying actors and activists, yeah, who were rushing to his side, 0:14:07.360 --> 0:14:08.839 they're friends with him, and they support him, and they're 0:14:08.840 --> 0:14:11.400 concerned about a pots blake. Are not the same as 0:14:11.440 --> 0:14:14.360 Chicago reporters who are trying to find out what happened exactly, 0:14:14.440 --> 0:14:16.160 And it is different. And look, we don't know what 0:14:16.200 --> 0:14:18.160 happened to Jesse, but what we do know is that 0:14:18.920 --> 0:14:22.120 racism is alive and well in this country. Homophobia is 0:14:22.160 --> 0:14:24.720 alive and well in this country. Oh, there we go, 0:14:25.600 --> 0:14:27.840 that's what we know. So this was all, by the way, 0:14:27.880 --> 0:14:29.640 we do know. That mean that this guy's a liar, 0:14:30.320 --> 0:14:32.400 you know, to what extent and how much and on 0:14:32.400 --> 0:14:35.240 what issues? But smallest line. Okay, now we're at the 0:14:35.240 --> 0:14:38.240 smallest lying part of this unless all the reporting out 0:14:38.280 --> 0:14:41.440 there is unless that's a lie, which I now we're 0:14:41.440 --> 0:14:44.600 getting into conspiracy territory. No, smallllet's not telling the truth 0:14:44.640 --> 0:14:50.240 about this. So but notice the transition into there's nothing 0:14:50.240 --> 0:14:51.960 that the media should learn about this that they believe 0:14:51.960 --> 0:14:55.040 this ridiculous story the whole line. And oh and she's 0:14:55.120 --> 0:14:57.840 she's wrong. By the way, he did and see Ann 0:14:57.920 --> 0:15:01.280 reported on this. He told police in the initial that yes, 0:15:01.360 --> 0:15:04.520 they yelled, this is maga country. So whether he heard 0:15:04.520 --> 0:15:06.080 somebody else say that, and he goes, yeah, that's a 0:15:06.120 --> 0:15:08.960 good line. I'll lie about that too, or that was 0:15:09.040 --> 0:15:12.240 in his initial you know, initial telling to police of 0:15:12.320 --> 0:15:17.280 this fable. Doesn't really matter. But this is maga country, 0:15:18.120 --> 0:15:21.480 is what somebody who hates Trump supporters but doesn't know 0:15:21.600 --> 0:15:27.000 any would think that a Trump supporter would say this 0:15:27.120 --> 0:15:30.920 is maga country in Chicago at two o'clock in the morning. 0:15:32.240 --> 0:15:40.440 Nobody would say that. It reminds me of the UVA 0:15:40.720 --> 0:15:45.200 that fake gang rape that was reported on by Rolling Stone, 0:15:45.320 --> 0:15:48.240 and you know, the media leapt all over it. You'll 0:15:48.240 --> 0:15:51.920 remember that the young woman who allegedly was gang raped 0:15:51.960 --> 0:15:55.840 and had glass in her back from being thrown on 0:15:55.880 --> 0:15:58.800 a glass table and ran out of a crowded party 0:15:58.800 --> 0:16:02.640 at the University of Virginia bleeding after being horribly and 0:16:02.680 --> 0:16:05.280 this was all, of course a complete fabrication, a total lie. 0:16:05.760 --> 0:16:09.080 But afterwards her friend said to her, you better not 0:16:09.120 --> 0:16:11.520 tell anybody about this because quote, it will ruin your 0:16:11.520 --> 0:16:16.960 social life. No normal human being on planet Earth, never 0:16:17.000 --> 0:16:19.240 mind at the University of Virginia, is going to tell 0:16:19.240 --> 0:16:21.320 their friend who has glass in their back after been 0:16:21.320 --> 0:16:24.440 brutally attacked. Don't tell anyone because it ruined your social life. 0:16:25.520 --> 0:16:29.200 These are tells about fabrication. These are lies. This is 0:16:29.240 --> 0:16:33.600 how we know, and this is Maga Country is a lie. 0:16:34.200 --> 0:16:42.560 We'll be right back. And then I see the attacker 0:16:43.880 --> 0:16:50.400 masked and he said, this Maga Country punches me right 0:16:50.400 --> 0:16:54.360 in the face. So I've punched back. And then we 0:16:54.440 --> 0:16:56.880 started tussling. You know, it's very icy. I noticed the 0:16:57.040 --> 0:17:00.000 rope around my neck and I started screaming and I said, 0:17:00.000 --> 0:17:02.440 and there's a rope around my neck. I want them 0:17:02.440 --> 0:17:05.320 to see that I fought back. And I want a 0:17:05.359 --> 0:17:09.199 little gay boy who might watch this to see that 0:17:09.240 --> 0:17:12.480 I fought back. And it does not take anything away 0:17:12.480 --> 0:17:15.080 from people that are not able to do that, but 0:17:15.200 --> 0:17:20.320 I fought back. They ran off. I didn't What a 0:17:20.440 --> 0:17:25.280 nutbar that guy is. What a loon? First of all, 0:17:25.359 --> 0:17:28.200 the whole no one ever said that he that that 0:17:28.240 --> 0:17:30.639 the this is Maga Country line. Well he said it, 0:17:31.440 --> 0:17:33.919 So I think we can dispense with that, right because 0:17:33.920 --> 0:17:37.560 now in retrospect, everybody says what I was saying all along, 0:17:37.600 --> 0:17:40.879 which is this is Maga country. Nobody's gonna say that 0:17:42.760 --> 0:17:44.480 this is you can do this tell It's like, this 0:17:44.680 --> 0:17:47.919 is Maga Country. Yeah, you know, it's like, that's what 0:17:48.040 --> 0:17:50.880 somebody who's an actor in Chicago thinks that people who 0:17:50.920 --> 0:17:54.439 vote Trump sound like euge Maga country. Yeah, you know, 0:17:54.640 --> 0:17:58.960 what is that all about? It's just bizarre for him 0:17:59.000 --> 0:18:03.080 to say that there's there's no basis in but people 0:18:03.160 --> 0:18:07.040 believed it. They believed it. They gave him the puff 0:18:07.119 --> 0:18:10.359 piece interview over at ABC. You know, I want to 0:18:10.359 --> 0:18:12.960 see that I fought back. How crazy do you have 0:18:13.000 --> 0:18:16.000 to be to go on a national TV interview and 0:18:16.160 --> 0:18:20.560 lie about something like this? I mean, how how whackoed 0:18:20.600 --> 0:18:23.040 do you really have to be as a person to 0:18:23.160 --> 0:18:27.080 do that. This guy's got got problems. But I'm just 0:18:27.080 --> 0:18:29.560 gonna say, a team, we were right all along. We 0:18:29.600 --> 0:18:32.280 saw this coming, we were correct, We did all of 0:18:32.280 --> 0:18:35.879 our updates. And while the lib media is not going 0:18:35.960 --> 0:18:37.360 to give us any credit for it, you know what, 0:18:37.800 --> 0:18:40.080 it's nice to be right. It's nice to be correct. 0:18:44.119 --> 0:18:49.399 I'm pissed off. What is it that has you so angry? 0:18:49.880 --> 0:18:55.760 The attackers? Attackers, But it's also the attacks. It's like, 0:18:56.359 --> 0:18:59.000 you know, at first, it was a thing of like, listen, 0:18:59.040 --> 0:19:03.440 if I tell the truth, then that's it, because it's 0:19:03.480 --> 0:19:09.000 the truth. Then it became a thing of like, oh, 0:19:09.000 --> 0:19:11.359 how can you doubt that, like you, how do you 0:19:11.400 --> 0:19:14.400 not believe that it's the truth. And then it became 0:19:14.440 --> 0:19:17.560 a thing of like, oh, it's not necessarily that you 0:19:17.600 --> 0:19:21.080 don't believe that this is the truth. You don't even 0:19:21.119 --> 0:19:26.800 want to see the truth. I don't think he wants 0:19:26.800 --> 0:19:28.480 to see the truth because he's not a meeting with 0:19:28.520 --> 0:19:33.119 cops today in Chicago, So you can take that for 0:19:33.240 --> 0:19:39.880 what it's worth. Jesse Small at what a what an 0:19:39.920 --> 0:19:44.160 incredible hoax? This whole thing has been incredible the sense 0:19:44.160 --> 0:19:48.040 of not believable and amazing at the same time. Andy 0:19:48.200 --> 0:19:53.280 no is a writer for Quilette. We've had him on before. 0:19:53.320 --> 0:19:56.159 He's done a lot of great work on Antifa and 0:19:56.320 --> 0:19:59.280 just exposing the looney left for what it is, and 0:19:59.440 --> 0:20:01.880 he's pulled together a threat. It is an epic threat 0:20:01.920 --> 0:20:03.679 on Twitter that I want to share with you on 0:20:03.800 --> 0:20:08.399 just all the hoaxes out there in the Trump era 0:20:09.000 --> 0:20:12.000 that are it's always the same story, Oh my gosh, Trump, 0:20:12.040 --> 0:20:14.320 all the hate, all the hatefulness because of Trump, and 0:20:14.359 --> 0:20:16.639 then we go, oh, no, what happened, And well it 0:20:16.640 --> 0:20:20.160 turns out nothing happened. But we're not supposed to take 0:20:20.200 --> 0:20:23.120 this as meaning anything, right that there are all these 0:20:23.359 --> 0:20:28.760 hoaxes out there doesn't mean anything, is what Andy writes 0:20:29.000 --> 0:20:33.520 the following Right after Donald Trump's election, the Southern Poverty 0:20:33.560 --> 0:20:37.280 Law Center really stoked panic. A pro gay Episcopal church 0:20:37.280 --> 0:20:41.199 in Indiana was vandalized with hile Trump, a swastika, and 0:20:41.280 --> 0:20:45.240 an anti gay slur. Turns out it was a gay 0:20:45.280 --> 0:20:48.080 Oregon player who did it. He was only charged with 0:20:48.119 --> 0:20:52.639 a misdemeanor. Days after the Pittsburgh massacre, Trump supporters were 0:20:52.640 --> 0:20:56.240 blamed for Nazi vandalism at a Brooklyn synagogue and fires 0:20:56.280 --> 0:20:59.639 in a Jewish community. Turns out the perpetrator was a 0:20:59.680 --> 0:21:02.520 gay black man who had worked with City Council on 0:21:02.640 --> 0:21:08.280 Initiatives to fight hate crimes. One week before the presidential election, 0:21:08.320 --> 0:21:11.080 a black church in Mississippi was burned in an arson attack. 0:21:11.640 --> 0:21:14.879 Vote Trump was written on the building. After much panic, 0:21:15.240 --> 0:21:18.400 an investigation revealed the man responsible was a church member, 0:21:18.600 --> 0:21:23.600 Andrew McClinton, who was himself an African American. In November 0:21:23.600 --> 0:21:26.600 twenty sixteen, a Muslim student at the University of Louisiana 0:21:26.760 --> 0:21:30.760 said two white racist Trump supporters brutally assaulted her, ripped 0:21:30.760 --> 0:21:33.280 off her her job, and robbed her. The story went 0:21:33.320 --> 0:21:38.679 totally viral it was a lie. Media never identified her 0:21:38.720 --> 0:21:43.160 by name after the hoax was revealed. Trumpet his supporters 0:21:43.160 --> 0:21:45.720 were blamed for a spate of anti Semitic KKK and 0:21:45.880 --> 0:21:49.000 Nazi graffiti on the campus of Nassau Community College in 0:21:49.040 --> 0:21:53.560 Long Island in twenty sixteen. The student responsible a left 0:21:53.560 --> 0:22:01.840 winger named Joskirat Sainy from South Asia. In December twenty sixteen, 0:22:01.960 --> 0:22:04.480 a Muslim woman said she was attacked by three white 0:22:04.480 --> 0:22:07.280 Trump supporters in New York City on the subway. She 0:22:07.280 --> 0:22:10.520 said they try to rip off her her job. Yasmin 0:22:10.840 --> 0:22:17.480 Suade lied but care. The Council on American Islamic Relations 0:22:17.680 --> 0:22:21.120 said Muslims are under tremendous stress and pressure, which results 0:22:21.160 --> 0:22:25.400 in incidents like this. In September twenty eighteen, a black 0:22:25.440 --> 0:22:27.760 woman in Long Island said Trump supporters confronted her and 0:22:27.800 --> 0:22:31.320 told her she didn't belong here. Her car tire was 0:22:31.320 --> 0:22:34.320 slashed the next day, and a hateful note was left 0:22:34.320 --> 0:22:38.520 behind saying go home. Turns out she made up the 0:22:38.520 --> 0:22:43.120 whole story herself. In November twenty eighteen, students at Goucher 0:22:43.160 --> 0:22:47.159 College demanded social justice training and safe spaces after racist, 0:22:47.320 --> 0:22:51.000 Nazi and KKK graffiti was found on campus. Someone even 0:22:51.040 --> 0:22:53.240 wrote the names of black students. Trump was blamed for 0:22:53.280 --> 0:22:58.360 this right away, but Flynn Arthur, a black student, was responsible. 0:22:59.400 --> 0:23:02.080 In twenty seventeen, at Saying Olaf College, it was royal 0:23:02.200 --> 0:23:05.200 by mass protests in response to anti black notes found 0:23:05.240 --> 0:23:10.720 across campus. Class was canceled at administrative administration's cave to demands. 0:23:11.280 --> 0:23:14.879 An investigation found that Samantha Wells, one of the alleged 0:23:14.920 --> 0:23:19.880 black victims, who was herself black, fabricated the entire incident. 0:23:20.800 --> 0:23:23.560 In November twenty sixteen, a Philadelphia and neighborhood was rattled 0:23:23.600 --> 0:23:26.800 when property was vandalized with pro Trump and anti black messages. 0:23:27.640 --> 0:23:33.639 William Tucker Black was identified as the vandal through CCTV 0:23:34.160 --> 0:23:38.280 footage in November twenty sixteenth. Okay, you know what we 0:23:38.320 --> 0:23:39.960 could do. I mean, this is an incredible threat that 0:23:40.000 --> 0:23:43.119 and he pulled. It goes on and on and on 0:23:43.480 --> 0:23:46.520 and on. I could do a whole hour of the 0:23:46.520 --> 0:23:49.159 show just reading off all these are all hoax hate crimes. 0:23:49.200 --> 0:23:52.439 Folks that received national le These are all reported on. 0:23:52.480 --> 0:23:54.840 These aren't just in the deep and the FBI statistics 0:23:54.840 --> 0:24:01.520 somewhere national level attention, big news story hoaxes, people lying 0:24:01.560 --> 0:24:06.280 about it. If we're in such a hateful, awful country, 0:24:06.440 --> 0:24:10.480 if the environment right now is so destructive and evil 0:24:10.680 --> 0:24:13.240 and anti gay, and anti black, and anti women and 0:24:13.320 --> 0:24:18.240 anti minority because of Trump, why do we have so 0:24:18.280 --> 0:24:23.240 many fake hate crimes that are occurring that or what 0:24:23.320 --> 0:24:25.440 we're basing this narrative of, oh, there's a rise in 0:24:25.520 --> 0:24:29.000 hate crimes on in the first place. When do we 0:24:29.040 --> 0:24:30.480 get to take a step back and say, maybe the 0:24:30.560 --> 0:24:36.560 left's got it wrong here, maybe they're being yeah, ideologically blinded. 0:24:37.400 --> 0:24:39.040 I ran the numbers, by the way, you know what, 0:24:39.080 --> 0:24:43.280 the you know what the hate crimes which include mean comments, 0:24:43.320 --> 0:24:45.440 which the whole other conversation. But where the First Amendment 0:24:45.480 --> 0:24:48.639 stops and hate crimes begin. But hate crimes, according to 0:24:48.640 --> 0:24:52.960 the FBI, about one and forty thousand people will will 0:24:53.119 --> 0:24:55.680 will be a victim of or could see a hate 0:24:55.680 --> 0:24:58.880 crime on any given year. One and forty thousand. There 0:24:58.880 --> 0:25:01.120 are eight thousand total reports of hate crimes in any 0:25:01.119 --> 0:25:03.840 given year. This is not an epidemic, my friends. Most 0:25:03.840 --> 0:25:07.200 of those crimes are to property. It's vandalism, it's people 0:25:07.240 --> 0:25:14.480 saying and writing things, We'll be right back. It confirms 0:25:15.480 --> 0:25:18.560 what I've been arguing for a very long time, which 0:25:18.640 --> 0:25:22.800 is that the investigation was always about President Trump, and 0:25:22.880 --> 0:25:26.000 it was going on for many months before May of 0:25:26.080 --> 0:25:30.920 twenty seventeen, the Bureau went overt in its case filing 0:25:31.000 --> 0:25:34.480 system to say that they were opening a case officially 0:25:34.520 --> 0:25:37.560 on President Trump, But they had been investigating him for 0:25:37.600 --> 0:25:41.800 a very long time before then under the auspices of 0:25:42.040 --> 0:25:44.960 counter intelligence, hoping to be able to make a case 0:25:45.000 --> 0:25:49.120 on him. Sir, friend Andy McCarthy saying what absolutely needs 0:25:49.160 --> 0:25:54.120 to be said now, Some senior officials at FBIDJ were 0:25:54.600 --> 0:25:58.080 going after Trump. That's all. This was all the Russia collusion. 0:25:58.200 --> 0:26:04.480 Sanctity of our elections. Mumbo jumbo is just that. It's garbage, claptrap, nonsense, malarkey. 0:26:06.400 --> 0:26:08.680 People were trying to cover up for what their real 0:26:08.720 --> 0:26:13.000 agenda was. They don't care about the harm done to 0:26:13.119 --> 0:26:15.960 the faith and trust that the American people are really 0:26:16.000 --> 0:26:19.400 required to have in these institutions of justice and law enforcement. 0:26:19.840 --> 0:26:23.280 They thought they had a bigger, more important mission stopping 0:26:23.320 --> 0:26:29.120 Trump and getting vengeance for Hillary Clinton. That's one part 0:26:29.160 --> 0:26:31.159 of this too. You'd be one thing if Trump had 0:26:31.200 --> 0:26:35.040 defeated some really wonderful and worthy person you know, I'm sorry, 0:26:35.040 --> 0:26:37.640 but I can't just let this go. It would be 0:26:38.720 --> 0:26:41.080 at least a little bit more understandable to me that 0:26:41.119 --> 0:26:45.879 they would violate their oaths, that these fbidj stooges would 0:26:45.880 --> 0:26:48.120 do the things that they've done if the person who 0:26:48.160 --> 0:26:50.480 was running against Trump was, even if I disagreed with 0:26:50.560 --> 0:26:53.639 him or her, a really good person. I mean, Hillary 0:26:53.640 --> 0:26:56.720 Clinton's a nightmare, all right. The Clinton's, the whole Clinton 0:26:56.840 --> 0:27:04.480 dynasty is a nightmare of corruption, lies, self dealing, just 0:27:04.680 --> 0:27:08.960 the worst in the contemporary American politician. I mean, it's 0:27:09.359 --> 0:27:14.680 all encapsulated in the Clintons, both of them. What book, 0:27:14.760 --> 0:27:16.800 Why are you being so mean? I'll just you know, 0:27:16.840 --> 0:27:19.400 I just want to give ladies a little high five, 0:27:19.520 --> 0:27:21.960 maybe a little squeeze, and see what's going on, you know. 0:27:22.000 --> 0:27:26.160 I mean, everyone makes all these excuses for Bill Clinton, 0:27:26.280 --> 0:27:29.520 for Hillary Clinton. Why, I've got a big country, three 0:27:29.560 --> 0:27:32.040 hundred twenty million people. That's the best that we can do. 0:27:34.080 --> 0:27:36.240 And these f behinddo ja guys, they're so upset because 0:27:36.240 --> 0:27:39.679 they want a Hillary. They wanted Benghazi Hillary to be 0:27:39.680 --> 0:27:42.240 the one who was in charge, so much better than Trump. 0:27:42.320 --> 0:27:48.440 What are they smoking over there? But it was always 0:27:48.480 --> 0:27:54.480 about getting Trump, and they use counterintelligence as the open 0:27:54.640 --> 0:27:57.480 doorway to get where they needed to go. That was it. 0:27:58.240 --> 0:28:01.600 They abuse the discretion that they have, and I want 0:28:01.640 --> 0:28:04.560 you'd always remember this, you know, if Pete never that 0:28:04.720 --> 0:28:06.639 the whole thing about how a prosecutor can inde a 0:28:06.640 --> 0:28:09.400 ham sandwich, I can tell you law enforcement can investigate 0:28:09.400 --> 0:28:12.440 anybody for anything. I mean, it's really easy to do. 0:28:12.600 --> 0:28:16.359 I've been there. I've written the justification statements for counter 0:28:17.240 --> 0:28:21.000 terrorism investigations. I've created the legal record for this in 0:28:21.000 --> 0:28:23.000 my past. Okay, where we got to look at this 0:28:23.040 --> 0:28:24.879 guy for this reason and this reason and this reason. 0:28:24.880 --> 0:28:27.920 Now it was counter terrorism, So the stakes were high, 0:28:28.160 --> 0:28:30.359 and I was always trying to be ethical and legal 0:28:30.400 --> 0:28:34.200 in all my acts. I had no interest in investigating 0:28:34.200 --> 0:28:35.879 somebody who I didn't think was a threat. I had 0:28:35.880 --> 0:28:39.240 no interest in investigating somebody that there was not a 0:28:39.440 --> 0:28:44.200 real predicate to look into. But if I had wanted to, 0:28:44.960 --> 0:28:47.240 if you wanted to just go after somebody for a 0:28:47.280 --> 0:28:50.920 certain reason, it's not hard to do. And when you 0:28:50.960 --> 0:28:54.680 add into it all this stuff seis confidential informants and 0:28:54.760 --> 0:28:58.320 you know, all these different ways that they can create 0:28:58.360 --> 0:29:01.200 these investigations. The moment you have account our intelligence component 0:29:01.240 --> 0:29:05.800 to it. They have built in cover ups. Oh that's classified. 0:29:05.840 --> 0:29:07.800 Can't tell you about that. Oh we can't show you 0:29:07.840 --> 0:29:10.360 what we told the fire as a chord. Oh they're 0:29:10.480 --> 0:29:15.120 using the dossier, They're using opposition information as the justification 0:29:15.200 --> 0:29:19.160 for this. How much more transparent can it be that 0:29:19.280 --> 0:29:25.680 this was a political hit? So you know, Andy McCarthy 0:29:25.760 --> 0:29:28.840 is just saying that this is telling us more we 0:29:28.880 --> 0:29:32.840 already know, which is absolutely true. Even the dish hey 0:29:33.200 --> 0:29:38.920 thirsh even he waited on this whole notion of the 0:29:39.000 --> 0:29:41.960 twenty fifth Amendment and removing Trump from office. And how 0:29:42.760 --> 0:29:45.959 you know these these FBI guys, their stories don't add up. 0:29:47.480 --> 0:29:50.040 Parts of this are are a problem, Parts of this 0:29:50.120 --> 0:29:54.400 are missing. It doesn't make sense. It doesn't make sense. 0:29:55.680 --> 0:30:00.360 Play clip fourteen. I think McCabe and Rod Rosenstein really 0:30:00.440 --> 0:30:03.480 believe that the President had obstruct to justice. I think 0:30:03.480 --> 0:30:05.800 they were wrong, but they honestly believed it, and they 0:30:05.840 --> 0:30:09.320 were looking for a way short of impeachment to remove 0:30:09.400 --> 0:30:12.960 him from office. I think any law enforcement official who 0:30:13.040 --> 0:30:16.040 thinks that the twenty fifth end and operates in a 0:30:16.080 --> 0:30:21.920 case like this is disqualified from serving in government. Absolutely true. 0:30:23.600 --> 0:30:26.760 Rosenstein should be fired. He should have been fired a 0:30:26.800 --> 0:30:28.800 long time ago. The only reason he can't be fired 0:30:28.960 --> 0:30:31.680 is if he got fired. The Dems have created this 0:30:31.680 --> 0:30:35.200 whole Oh my gosh, Rosenstein, he's the Mueller Probe, He's 0:30:35.240 --> 0:30:38.760 the saint of the Mueller Probe. They'd act like, oh, 0:30:38.920 --> 0:30:43.440 Russia collusion. This is all narrative building. They've set this 0:30:43.560 --> 0:30:46.760 up all along. There can be no accountability for Rosenstein. 0:30:46.840 --> 0:30:52.280 There can be no responsibility for these actions that he's taken, 0:30:52.400 --> 0:30:55.720 because the moment you do anyth against Rosenstein, they view 0:30:55.760 --> 0:30:59.120 it as a strike against the Muellerprobe, the heart of 0:30:59.160 --> 0:31:02.160 the Mueller Probe, because he's there, watching over it, making 0:31:02.200 --> 0:31:04.880 sure that it goes on without the smaller probe. I've 0:31:04.920 --> 0:31:07.640 told it it's gonna end soon. I have it on 0:31:07.680 --> 0:31:10.040 good authority. It's gonna end soon. And it's got it's 0:31:10.040 --> 0:31:14.520 got nothing. It's going nowhere. Unfortunately, because the Democrats are insane, 0:31:14.920 --> 0:31:19.440 it doesn't mean that the Russia collusion delusion stops. They'll 0:31:19.480 --> 0:31:23.600 just come up with new investigations, new ways to approach this, 0:31:24.280 --> 0:31:30.640 new rationalizations for what should be a deeply a deeply 0:31:30.840 --> 0:31:35.720 embarrassing episode for the FBI and the DOJ. But which 0:31:35.760 --> 0:31:38.120 Democrats are gonna just grab onto like a dog with 0:31:38.120 --> 0:31:41.600 a bone. They're gonna think this is great, let's just 0:31:41.680 --> 0:31:44.040 let's go over They'll go over all the same material too, 0:31:44.160 --> 0:31:47.880 because they've brainwashed their side. I speak to Democrats about this. 0:31:47.960 --> 0:31:50.880 They really think that there's some there was some plot 0:31:51.000 --> 0:31:54.880 the hack and the emails with Trump, and they don't 0:31:54.920 --> 0:31:58.880 understand how crazy they sound, and that that could be 0:31:59.000 --> 0:32:03.360 done with out there being any hard evidence of this 0:32:03.480 --> 0:32:06.680 emerging at this point, with all the emails pulled and 0:32:06.760 --> 0:32:09.000 the phone records, and never all these people under oath 0:32:09.040 --> 0:32:13.800 and being prosecuted for even the slightest misremembering or deviation 0:32:13.920 --> 0:32:16.280 from the facts or lying or whatever you want to 0:32:16.320 --> 0:32:23.120 call it, they still have nothing. And yet the Democrat 0:32:23.200 --> 0:32:24.880 line on this doesn't change at all. Oh well, he 0:32:24.960 --> 0:32:26.960 still must include it. We just haven't found it yet. 0:32:27.800 --> 0:32:30.920 They'll never stop this because it was never about getting 0:32:30.920 --> 0:32:35.400 to the truth. Unfortunately, it has been successful. As I 0:32:35.440 --> 0:32:38.560 have said so many times here because it does bear repeating, 0:32:39.320 --> 0:32:42.360 this was always about slowing down and hurting the Trump administration. 0:32:42.400 --> 0:32:46.320 This was always about an opposition. This was hashtag resistance 0:32:46.320 --> 0:32:49.320 to what Trump was trying to accomplish. And there's no 0:32:49.360 --> 0:32:54.200 way to fully gauge just how damaging this has been. 0:32:54.240 --> 0:32:59.959 There's no way for us to really know what it is. 0:33:00.080 --> 0:33:06.520 Is that the full, you know, the full drawback of 0:33:06.600 --> 0:33:08.840 this whole investigation has been for Trump in terms of 0:33:08.880 --> 0:33:12.239 policy and what he's been able to accomplish. They just 0:33:12.360 --> 0:33:16.120 figured that, you know, they knew that it would be bad, 0:33:16.160 --> 0:33:18.160 It would be sand in the gears, it would slow 0:33:18.280 --> 0:33:20.480 things down, it would hurt Trump's agenda, it would make 0:33:20.480 --> 0:33:25.520 his life as president more difficult, and that alone, in 0:33:25.560 --> 0:33:31.400 their view, was sufficient. That alone, as the left sees, it, 0:33:31.520 --> 0:33:35.680 was enough to justify all of this. So unfortunately, there's 0:33:35.720 --> 0:33:37.800 not going to be that much of a haha moment, 0:33:38.280 --> 0:33:39.680 even though a lot of us, I think would like 0:33:39.760 --> 0:33:43.440 one when this whole Muther probe goes nowhere, because it's 0:33:43.480 --> 0:33:50.000 gone already far enough for them just by hurting Trump's presidency, 0:33:50.120 --> 0:34:00.000 just by creating this whole apparatus of irritation and anxiety 0:34:01.000 --> 0:34:07.400 and obstruction, I mean, this was an obstruction effort of 0:34:07.440 --> 0:34:10.920 all things Trump, and unfortunately, in that regard, the Libs 0:34:10.960 --> 0:34:16.520 have been pretty successful. It is upsetting, to say the least, 0:34:17.480 --> 0:34:18.920 But then you look at the other side of this 0:34:19.000 --> 0:34:21.799 and where the Libs are going to have to go here? 0:34:22.440 --> 0:34:24.239 I just thought this was kind of this was this 0:34:24.280 --> 0:34:27.120 was quite a thing during campaign stopping because you got 0:34:27.160 --> 0:34:29.680 all these Democrats now that they're running. Elizabeth Warren was 0:34:29.680 --> 0:34:34.879 at a rally in Georgia and somebody was holding a one, 0:34:35.040 --> 0:34:38.439 two and twentieth sign and this is how that went 0:34:38.440 --> 0:34:45.600 and play nineteen. Yes we're gonna do this. So I thought, 0:34:45.640 --> 0:34:47.759 what we do today, I'm just so glad you're here. 0:34:47.760 --> 0:34:50.880 I thought, what we do today is that I talk 0:34:51.000 --> 0:34:55.120 a little bit, just kind of introduce myself who I am, 0:34:55.200 --> 0:34:59.919 a little bit of my story. Well, we'll make this happen, 0:35:00.040 --> 0:35:05.759 and then we're there. We're there, hold on, hold on, 0:35:06.080 --> 0:35:09.960 We'll get to lots of policy. I absolutely promise I 0:35:09.960 --> 0:35:12.919 have a little They promise, can we can we turn 0:35:13.000 --> 0:35:16.000 her off for a minute? Who thinks that this woman 0:35:16.160 --> 0:35:19.640 is someone? Yeah, I'm gonna get me a beer. Who 0:35:19.680 --> 0:35:21.400 thinks that this is a person that anyone wants to 0:35:21.480 --> 0:35:25.440 vote for? Piera? I am Massachusetts Libs? What is up 0:35:25.480 --> 0:35:28.040 with you? I'm not talking about Massachusetts conservatives in the House. 0:35:28.080 --> 0:35:30.800 Thank you for all you do. Massachusetts Libs, what is 0:35:30.840 --> 0:35:32.759 wrong with you? This is where you want to be 0:35:32.800 --> 0:35:35.960 your senator. I just want to talk and be really 0:35:36.000 --> 0:35:40.000 annoying and loud all the time. And oh it's horrible, 0:35:40.120 --> 0:35:44.640 isn't it. So the good news is Democrats are going 0:35:44.719 --> 0:35:46.480 to keep doing what they do, and they're not very 0:35:46.480 --> 0:35:52.440 good at it. Discussion of the twenty fifth Amendment was 0:35:52.960 --> 0:35:56.200 simply Rod raised the issue and discussed it with me 0:35:56.880 --> 0:36:01.760 in the context of thinking about how many other cabinet 0:36:01.760 --> 0:36:08.319 officials might support such an effort. Rosenstein was actually openly 0:36:09.719 --> 0:36:12.440 talking about whether there was a majority of the cabinet 0:36:12.440 --> 0:36:16.680 who would vote to remove the president. That's correct, counting 0:36:16.719 --> 0:36:22.040 votes or possible votes. What seemed to be coursing through 0:36:22.080 --> 0:36:24.759 the mind of the Deputy Attorney General was getting rid 0:36:24.800 --> 0:36:27.960 of the President of the United States. Well, one way 0:36:28.080 --> 0:36:30.560 or another. I can't confirm that, but what I can 0:36:30.680 --> 0:36:35.560 say is the Deputy Attorney General was definitely very concerned 0:36:35.800 --> 0:36:40.200 about the president, about his capacity and about his intent 0:36:40.560 --> 0:36:43.839 at that point in time. The CABE is a slimy, 0:36:45.160 --> 0:36:51.920 a slimy loser, folks. Bad guy. Bad guy came across 0:36:51.960 --> 0:36:57.800 in this interviews. Well. Notice how when asked about Rosenstein 0:36:58.320 --> 0:37:00.960 bringing up the twenty fifth amendments to remove a president 0:37:01.000 --> 0:37:03.120 from office. He goes, well, you know, I can't confirm it, 0:37:03.160 --> 0:37:05.480 that's what he of course he could confirm it. He's 0:37:05.520 --> 0:37:09.720 not an idiot, but he just doesn't want to admit. 0:37:09.800 --> 0:37:11.920 He does not want to admit what is planly obvious. 0:37:12.600 --> 0:37:15.480 What he really doesn't want is to have to answer 0:37:15.560 --> 0:37:20.080 some questions like, oh, were you hoping to engage in 0:37:20.120 --> 0:37:22.399 a coup against the president United States? Using the law 0:37:22.480 --> 0:37:28.960 as a pretext, using the constitution, abusing a an amendment 0:37:28.960 --> 0:37:32.400 of the Constitution as a pretext to remove a president. 0:37:34.080 --> 0:37:38.160 Their plan is a stupid plan. Rosenstein's gonna wear a 0:37:38.160 --> 0:37:40.319 wire to get the president? What, oh, they're gonna get 0:37:40.400 --> 0:37:44.200 him saying that he fired Coomy because of Russia. Guess what, 0:37:44.560 --> 0:37:47.879 even if they did that, that's not a twenty fifth 0:37:47.920 --> 0:37:52.560 Amendment thing. Comy was a lanky clown, a self righteous, 0:37:52.680 --> 0:37:55.920 self interested clown. I mean, so much of what McCabe says, 0:37:56.280 --> 0:37:58.120 I watched the whole thing, by the way, all of it. 0:37:58.840 --> 0:38:01.440 So much of what McCabe says here just confirms what 0:38:01.480 --> 0:38:04.160 many of us have known all along, which is that 0:38:04.320 --> 0:38:06.720 there really was, there really was a deep state effort 0:38:06.760 --> 0:38:09.799 against the president. That's real. You know, we keep being 0:38:09.840 --> 0:38:12.640 told by the media, Oh, that thing that you think 0:38:12.680 --> 0:38:14.600 that we were doing or we were saying about Trump, 0:38:14.760 --> 0:38:16.759 or that the government was you know, at the top 0:38:16.840 --> 0:38:18.719 level of the bureaucracy trying to do about Trump, that 0:38:18.800 --> 0:38:24.440 you're crazy, that wasn't happening. We weren't doing that. And 0:38:24.480 --> 0:38:28.359 then with the passage of time and more facts coming out, 0:38:29.600 --> 0:38:32.920 Oh no, they were doing that. Yeah, no, that's actually 0:38:32.960 --> 0:38:36.280 a thing that they were doing, that was happening. Sure 0:38:36.320 --> 0:38:40.000 we were surveiling the Trump campaign. Sure we were, you know, 0:38:40.120 --> 0:38:42.439 thinking about wearing a wire against the president and said, sure, 0:38:42.480 --> 0:38:45.560 we were thinking about invoking the twenty fifth Amendment. Was 0:38:45.600 --> 0:38:47.200 it long ago or they were telling us that that 0:38:47.239 --> 0:38:53.440 was absolutely not the case. This should be investigated as this. 0:38:53.680 --> 0:38:56.680 People keep comparing this to Watergate. This is way worse 0:38:56.719 --> 0:38:59.520 than Watergate. And I don't know, people say that about 0:38:59.560 --> 0:39:01.759 all worse than Watergate, you know, it's an alliteration. But 0:39:02.280 --> 0:39:06.840 this is way worse than Watergate. This is using the 0:39:06.880 --> 0:39:11.080 intelligence community to try and drum up a criminal investigation, 0:39:11.200 --> 0:39:15.480 criminal prosecution of the president and his top people, maybe 0:39:15.480 --> 0:39:20.840 go after the president's own family, his own children. Utter disgrace, 0:39:21.040 --> 0:39:22.960 that the media sits around and goes, oh, well, I 0:39:22.960 --> 0:39:24.720 guess yeah, they did want to just remove the president. 0:39:24.800 --> 0:39:28.360 Could you imagine if somebody had had a discussion and 0:39:28.480 --> 0:39:32.040 not just anyone the Attorney General for all intents and purposes, 0:39:32.080 --> 0:39:35.440 the acting Attorney General, and wanted to have a discussion 0:39:35.480 --> 0:39:38.640 about or you know whatever deputy Attorney general about removing 0:39:38.640 --> 0:39:41.360 the president the United States because they think he's crazy. 0:39:42.840 --> 0:39:44.480 If anyone had said that about Obama, I mean, I 0:39:44.520 --> 0:39:46.040 think that person would have to leave the country. I 0:39:46.080 --> 0:39:48.120 don't think that they'd be able to, you know, go 0:39:48.160 --> 0:39:50.719 and buy a gallant of milk and piece the rest 0:39:50.760 --> 0:39:56.040 of their lives. But with with you know, with Rosenstein McCabe, 0:39:56.080 --> 0:40:00.279 you know, it's no big deal. Rosenstein comes across to me. 0:40:00.280 --> 0:40:02.600 He's one of these guys who you know, he's he's 0:40:02.640 --> 0:40:05.399 played the game. There's something there's something wrong with him. 0:40:07.080 --> 0:40:09.280 There's something wrong with them. And the same thing with McCabe. 0:40:09.760 --> 0:40:12.440 These are guys who have been bureaucratic in fighters for 0:40:12.520 --> 0:40:15.920 a long time and they've they've made compromises in those 0:40:16.040 --> 0:40:17.960 in those organizations to get where they are. Can tell 0:40:18.000 --> 0:40:23.320 you that it comes across and all this information and 0:40:23.920 --> 0:40:26.840 that they would be so sanguine in talking about the 0:40:26.880 --> 0:40:30.360 possible removal of president United States. Could you imagine what 0:40:30.520 --> 0:40:33.600 that would do to this country? Could you just just 0:40:33.680 --> 0:40:35.759 theoretically for a second, think if they managed to get 0:40:35.840 --> 0:40:38.640 like Tillerson and this guy and that guy and a 0:40:38.680 --> 0:40:41.560 few other cabinet officials, they convinced them, yeah, we're going 0:40:41.600 --> 0:40:45.360 to remove the president because we think he's not of 0:40:45.480 --> 0:40:49.719 sound mind. When you have ninety percent approval rating for 0:40:49.719 --> 0:40:53.600 this president Republican Party, this is the kind of thing. 0:40:53.760 --> 0:40:55.160 I'm not exactly. This is the the kind of thing that 0:40:55.160 --> 0:40:59.520 pulls a government apart. This is the kind of situation 0:41:00.400 --> 0:41:05.200 that undermines the legitimacy of a governing system in a 0:41:05.239 --> 0:41:08.920 way that it maybe never recovers from. You're gonna have 0:41:08.960 --> 0:41:11.719 some elites just be yeah, you know, sorry, you're not 0:41:11.760 --> 0:41:18.360 the president anymore because we say so what? And notice 0:41:18.400 --> 0:41:21.640 how they never stop and think, maybe we've got this wrong. 0:41:22.600 --> 0:41:25.800 If it can't be the twenty fifth Amendment coup maneuver, 0:41:26.560 --> 0:41:29.040 then it's got to be the criminal investigation with Muller. 0:41:29.760 --> 0:41:32.640 They were doing everything that they could possibly think of 0:41:32.880 --> 0:41:36.640 to take down this president. And I keep trying to 0:41:36.640 --> 0:41:39.759 remind everybody who will listen. What do they have to 0:41:39.800 --> 0:41:43.920 show for it? What proof can they provide us that 0:41:43.960 --> 0:41:54.000 there was anything sufficient to justify what happened here? All 0:41:54.040 --> 0:41:57.080 this concern that they have, all of this, Oh my gosh, 0:41:57.080 --> 0:42:00.200 the president's crazy, he's a criminal, he worked with Rush, 0:42:00.320 --> 0:42:05.760 all this stuff. What have they been able to find? Nothing? Nothing? 0:42:07.840 --> 0:42:10.000 I just I can't tell if if they're just not 0:42:10.120 --> 0:42:13.040 very if they're the main driver of this is that 0:42:13.080 --> 0:42:16.799 they're not very smart, or they're just deeply unethical, or 0:42:16.840 --> 0:42:18.880 you know, there's a lot of different ways that we 0:42:18.920 --> 0:42:24.560 could go with this. How could the FBI acting director, 0:42:24.560 --> 0:42:28.960 How could Komey and McCabe and Brannan and Rosenstein, all 0:42:29.000 --> 0:42:34.480 these different figures have been so wrong unless they were 0:42:34.640 --> 0:42:39.480 blinded by ideological hatred of this president, unless they really 0:42:39.520 --> 0:42:43.080 believed all this propaganda that the president was some monster 0:42:43.120 --> 0:42:45.960 who's going to destroy America, a clear and present danger 0:42:46.000 --> 0:42:49.319 to the future of this country. And how embarrassed should 0:42:49.320 --> 0:42:51.880 they be now that, after all that they've tried to 0:42:51.920 --> 0:42:55.480 do to this president, not only do they have nothing 0:42:55.719 --> 0:43:00.719 on him, the country's actually doing well. He's actually a 0:43:00.800 --> 0:43:06.320 good and pretty effective president. All the decades of service 0:43:06.360 --> 0:43:09.239 that these men and women, Sally Yates, and there are 0:43:09.239 --> 0:43:12.799 obviously some women involved in this. True all of that, 0:43:14.440 --> 0:43:18.200 and what wisdom did they bring to bear with these decisions? 0:43:19.640 --> 0:43:24.640 They have forever tainted, forever tainted the reputations of the FBI, 0:43:24.760 --> 0:43:31.239 the CIA, the Department of Justice. So many of the 0:43:31.320 --> 0:43:34.239 people that are the most vocal critics of the Trump 0:43:34.280 --> 0:43:37.920 administration have always been holding out that the biggest problem 0:43:37.920 --> 0:43:41.040 with Trump, you see, is that he undermines institutions. He 0:43:41.239 --> 0:43:47.279 undermines these institutions. What could undermine these institutions more than 0:43:47.360 --> 0:43:51.279 having the senior bureaucrats of the government who are employees 0:43:51.360 --> 0:43:57.319 of the president, trying to find any excuse, pathetically desperately 0:43:57.480 --> 0:44:01.640 looking for an excuse to get read of this president 0:44:01.719 --> 0:44:07.120 based on what that they don't like him. Lindsey Graham, 0:44:07.160 --> 0:44:10.799 Jesus for what it is, Blakelift twelve. So through good 0:44:10.840 --> 0:44:14.760 reporting by sixty minutes, there's an allegation by the acting 0:44:15.760 --> 0:44:19.080 FBI director at the time that the deputy Attorney General 0:44:19.680 --> 0:44:24.400 was basically trying to do an administrative coup take the 0:44:24.440 --> 0:44:28.440 president down through the twenty fifth Amendment process. The deputy 0:44:28.440 --> 0:44:31.680 Attorney General denies it. So I promise your viewers the 0:44:31.719 --> 0:44:34.680 following that we will have a hearing about who's telling 0:44:34.760 --> 0:44:38.480 the truth, what actually happened. Mister Kabe, you remember, was 0:44:38.520 --> 0:44:41.920 dismissed from the FBI for leaking information to the press, 0:44:41.960 --> 0:44:47.680 So you got to remember the source here. Yep, that's right. 0:44:49.000 --> 0:44:52.680 Why hasn't McCabe faced charges yet? I've heard from so 0:44:52.760 --> 0:44:56.720 many people last few months, in particular, whether it's dealing 0:44:56.719 --> 0:45:01.120 with Stone, Roger Stone, or pop adop lists or all these. 0:45:01.280 --> 0:45:02.839 You know, if you're tied to Trump and you lie 0:45:03.000 --> 0:45:04.879 even about what you had for breakfast in the morning, 0:45:04.920 --> 0:45:08.520 you lie about anything, and Muller gets you, that's justice, 0:45:08.560 --> 0:45:12.000 That's what they tell us. Why is it not then 0:45:12.080 --> 0:45:14.799 justice for McCabe to face criminal prosecution? You know, I 0:45:14.840 --> 0:45:20.520 wonder how many people Andy McCabe has sent to prison 0:45:21.040 --> 0:45:24.040 because his handwritten notes of a meeting were different than 0:45:24.040 --> 0:45:26.319 their recollection of the meeting. I wonder. I bet the 0:45:26.320 --> 0:45:29.480 answer is a lot. Put a lot of people in 0:45:29.520 --> 0:45:33.640 prison for that. You know. This is why you know, 0:45:33.680 --> 0:45:36.200 we ask a lot. We expect a lot of senior 0:45:36.640 --> 0:45:38.760 law enforcement officials because they have a lot of power, 0:45:40.120 --> 0:45:44.600 a lot of authority, and the most dangerous place of 0:45:45.160 --> 0:45:48.920 interaction for citizens with their government is law enforcement. That 0:45:49.040 --> 0:45:52.520 is the most dangerous place for your average American in 0:45:52.600 --> 0:45:55.080 terms of where there could be abuse, where corruption and 0:45:55.120 --> 0:46:01.600 politicization is truly terrifying. It's the IRS and law enforcement. 0:46:01.640 --> 0:46:05.400 Although you could argue that IRS is essentially an agency 0:46:05.480 --> 0:46:07.640 set up to enforce the tax code, so it does 0:46:07.680 --> 0:46:12.439 have it an enforcement mission. But law enforcement overall, that's 0:46:12.520 --> 0:46:19.239 where if you have political activists, people that really view 0:46:19.360 --> 0:46:22.719 their mission not as enforcing the law, but as enacting 0:46:22.800 --> 0:46:27.560 some kind of ideological agenda and collecting scalps along the way, 0:46:27.640 --> 0:46:32.320 destroying people, destroying the opposition along the way. That should 0:46:32.320 --> 0:46:36.359 be deeply disturbing to anyone, regardless of where they fall 0:46:36.400 --> 0:46:40.120 on the political spectrum. But but don't view it that way. 0:46:40.680 --> 0:46:45.280 Libs know that just as they have an ideological hold 0:46:45.560 --> 0:46:50.279 on the academy, so colleges and universities and schools, on Hollywood, 0:46:50.760 --> 0:46:54.040 on the national press and the media, they also have 0:46:54.120 --> 0:46:58.680 taken root at the highest levels of the federal bureaucracy, 0:46:59.520 --> 0:47:02.440 just how Libs have overtaken law schools now and the 0:47:02.520 --> 0:47:07.520 legal profession is increasingly, not entirely, but increasingly a province 0:47:07.960 --> 0:47:12.600 of the progressive left. The legal profession. Mind, not even 0:47:12.680 --> 0:47:15.840 just law schools. A lot of lib lawyers running around. 0:47:16.520 --> 0:47:18.879 Same thing is true of the federal bureaucracy, and that's 0:47:18.880 --> 0:47:20.880 what was in action here with McCabe and Comy and 0:47:20.880 --> 0:47:23.000 all the rest of them. But you know, the question 0:47:23.120 --> 0:47:25.719 was never even asked in this whole sixteen minutes a 0:47:25.719 --> 0:47:28.279 long interview, in this whole sixteen minutes interview. You know, 0:47:28.480 --> 0:47:31.840 mister McCabe, why do you think that any of this 0:47:32.040 --> 0:47:35.480 was justified? What do you have now? What can you 0:47:35.520 --> 0:47:38.040 tell us? What can you show us to justify all 0:47:38.080 --> 0:47:43.959 of this investigating the answers? He's got nothing. What I'll 0:47:43.960 --> 0:47:45.840 tell you is that if somebody really wants to investigate you, 0:47:45.920 --> 0:47:48.680 trust me, they can find a reason. So if they 0:47:48.680 --> 0:47:51.320 don't have to explain why they're investigating, it just becomes 0:47:51.360 --> 0:47:57.520 a weapon. Global Verification Network is the only dual certified, 0:47:57.760 --> 0:48:01.880 veteran owned background investigation and adding company. Okay, this is 0:48:01.920 --> 0:48:04.960 a company that you can trust because I trust them, 0:48:05.080 --> 0:48:07.640 I know them, and I know that in this area 0:48:07.640 --> 0:48:11.680 of having background checks done, Global Verification Network is second 0:48:11.719 --> 0:48:15.520 to none. You should check them out to headquartered in Chicago, 0:48:15.600 --> 0:48:18.920 but they have risk mitigation experts across the country and 0:48:19.040 --> 0:48:22.799 whatever size your company, whatever industry you're in. You could 0:48:22.800 --> 0:48:25.080 be a huge four to one hundred company or all 0:48:25.080 --> 0:48:28.120 the way down to startups. Global Verification Network. Make sure 0:48:28.239 --> 0:48:32.040 that they tailor their programs to your needs. Call them 0:48:32.200 --> 0:48:34.000 yourself and see make sure you tell them you heard 0:48:34.000 --> 0:48:37.359 about them from Team buck eight seven seven six nine 0:48:37.440 --> 0:48:41.399 five one one seven nine. That's eight seven seven six 0:48:41.600 --> 0:48:45.279 nine five one one seven nine. Or go to my 0:48:45.920 --> 0:48:56.040 GVN dot com again, that's my GVN dot com. We're 0:48:56.080 --> 0:49:06.600 going to be signing today and registry National Emergency and 0:49:09.440 --> 0:49:12.200 it's a great thing to do because we have an 0:49:12.200 --> 0:49:16.080 invasion of drugs, invasion of gangs, invasion of people, and 0:49:16.160 --> 0:49:18.879 it's unacceptable. I could do the wall over a longer 0:49:18.920 --> 0:49:21.480 period of time I didn't need to do this, but 0:49:21.600 --> 0:49:24.400 I'd rather do it much faster, and I don't have 0:49:24.440 --> 0:49:25.840 to do it for the election. I've already done a 0:49:25.880 --> 0:49:30.480 lot of wall for the election twenty twenty. And the 0:49:30.520 --> 0:49:32.720 only reason we're up you're talking about this is because 0:49:32.760 --> 0:49:37.160 of the election. So the President did as I as 0:49:37.160 --> 0:49:40.040 I had thought he would declare last week, and I 0:49:40.080 --> 0:49:41.560 know I was out Friday, so I didn't get a 0:49:41.640 --> 0:49:44.000 chance talking guys about this, But the presidents declared the 0:49:44.800 --> 0:49:50.000 national emergency, which is not nearly as as big of 0:49:50.120 --> 0:49:53.239 a big of a deal, big of a shock in 0:49:53.320 --> 0:49:55.880 terms of the process here as a lot of people 0:49:55.920 --> 0:50:00.560 are pretending it is. I do think that we need 0:50:00.640 --> 0:50:08.359 some context, some understanding of the history of just how 0:50:08.400 --> 0:50:10.400 many times this has happened in the past. The answer 0:50:10.440 --> 0:50:14.600 is many times, and also the need for this right now. 0:50:14.640 --> 0:50:18.080 I mean, there should be a real understanding that the 0:50:18.200 --> 0:50:20.680 President of the United States has tried to do everything 0:50:20.719 --> 0:50:24.640 that he can in order to get a wall built 0:50:24.640 --> 0:50:27.719 on our southern border, get barriers put in place, and 0:50:27.800 --> 0:50:32.000 that there's such opposition from Democrats on this, that there's 0:50:32.040 --> 0:50:36.439 such a they think a political win here for them 0:50:36.480 --> 0:50:40.319 to oppose all of this. It just strikes me as 0:50:40.520 --> 0:50:44.959 as the height of dishonesty that you have all these 0:50:45.000 --> 0:50:48.600 Democrats who are acting like this is such an unthinkable, 0:50:49.120 --> 0:50:52.200 unthinkable maneuver. How could he ever do this? Why would 0:50:52.200 --> 0:50:55.919 he ever do this? Meanwhile, he's gone out of his way, 0:50:57.000 --> 0:51:01.480 out of his way to try and bring them in 0:51:01.520 --> 0:51:06.840 on this. You know, eighteen times, by the way, Obama 0:51:06.920 --> 0:51:12.600 used emergency declarations to appropriate to unilaterally transfer funds that 0:51:12.640 --> 0:51:16.000 were not appropriate by the Congress from and for I'm sorry, 0:51:16.320 --> 0:51:23.000 other presidents, including Bush and Obama used emergency declarations eighteen times. 0:51:23.040 --> 0:51:25.840 That was the number that I was looking for. That 0:51:26.040 --> 0:51:28.839 seems pretty simch. And now you sit around you asked 0:51:28.880 --> 0:51:32.200 cold on a second, what are those eighteen Well, well 0:51:32.200 --> 0:51:34.880 that's isn't that the point? If it were was this 0:51:35.120 --> 0:51:38.640 terrible Oh no, If it was this terrible decision the 0:51:38.640 --> 0:51:44.600 president had made, then what about all the other emergency declarations? Right? 0:51:44.640 --> 0:51:47.000 If it sets this precedent, did the other eighteen time 0:51:47.040 --> 0:51:53.640 setup precedent? This is within the president story statutory authority, 0:51:54.120 --> 0:51:58.200 and people cannot like that. People can take any number 0:51:58.200 --> 0:52:01.000 of different positions about how they disagree with it, But 0:52:01.120 --> 0:52:03.080 to say that it's lawless is to say that the 0:52:03.200 --> 0:52:08.080 law has no meeting. President is going with a duly 0:52:09.120 --> 0:52:14.320 declared statute here. There's nothing about this that is that 0:52:14.440 --> 0:52:16.719 is unacceptable. And I just want to remind you that 0:52:17.000 --> 0:52:22.680 remember in Trump Trumphy Hawaii, Trumphy Hawaii, we were told 0:52:22.680 --> 0:52:24.839 by all these legal member that was the Muslim ban, right, 0:52:25.239 --> 0:52:27.920 all these so called legal experts, all the Muslim ban. 0:52:28.040 --> 0:52:31.120 It's it's unconstitutional, it's terrible, it's wrong. Oh, actually the 0:52:31.120 --> 0:52:36.359 Supreme Court upheld it. Trump was right. Did you have 0:52:36.400 --> 0:52:40.160 any of the journo firefighters for our democracy come out 0:52:40.160 --> 0:52:42.399 and say, Wow, we got that one really wrong. Maybe 0:52:42.400 --> 0:52:46.200 we should, maybe we should have a little introspection, Maybe 0:52:46.239 --> 0:52:51.960 we should be a little bit more willing to think 0:52:52.000 --> 0:52:54.840 about why we get these things so wrong. No, no, no no, 0:52:54.680 --> 0:52:57.600 none of that, and none of that, no interest whatsoever 0:52:58.239 --> 0:53:04.040 in that. They just move on to the next area 0:53:04.200 --> 0:53:06.360 of their so called expertise. They move on to the 0:53:06.400 --> 0:53:11.399 next issue that they supposedly have such a deep understanding of. 0:53:12.760 --> 0:53:16.440 And you know, I just have to say that I'm 0:53:16.480 --> 0:53:18.560 I'm really, I mean I am in case you have 0:53:18.560 --> 0:53:21.040 a notice running out of patience with all the media's lies. 0:53:21.239 --> 0:53:23.760 You know, I've I've gone now to a place where 0:53:24.160 --> 0:53:25.880 I think the only way to deal with them on 0:53:25.920 --> 0:53:28.200 this stuff, whether it's the border, any number of other issues, 0:53:28.360 --> 0:53:30.920 is just to call them out and really and really 0:53:31.200 --> 0:53:34.239 fight them on it. You know, not just say that 0:53:34.280 --> 0:53:36.560 they're wrong, but point out that they're dishonest, that they're 0:53:36.560 --> 0:53:39.920 a disgrace. So I think the President is right here. 0:53:39.920 --> 0:53:41.440 I know. I didn't get a chance to talk about 0:53:41.440 --> 0:53:44.520 this on Friday, when the declaration initially went down, I 0:53:44.560 --> 0:53:47.799 obviously was covering this, or rather reading up on this 0:53:47.920 --> 0:53:50.880 and watching the video again and everything all weekend. So 0:53:50.920 --> 0:53:52.800 I'll give you my thoughts on where this all stands. 0:53:53.120 --> 0:53:57.120 You know, I am a little bit disappointed that it 0:53:57.160 --> 0:54:00.400 came to this, that the President wasn't able to maneuver 0:54:00.600 --> 0:54:02.560 in a more adept fashion so that this one was 0:54:02.640 --> 0:54:06.279 not necessary. But I also look at this as I 0:54:06.320 --> 0:54:09.480 think the president's doing what he doing what he should do, 0:54:10.239 --> 0:54:12.359 and I give him credit for being willing to fight 0:54:12.440 --> 0:54:15.520 on this issue. You know, there is if you really 0:54:15.560 --> 0:54:18.640 dig into this, there is funding for the creation of 0:54:18.800 --> 0:54:21.440 new wall, which means that that it is happening. It's 0:54:21.440 --> 0:54:24.399 just happening more slowly. And I think it sets up 0:54:24.480 --> 0:54:28.600 twenty twenty for a kind of showdown over immigration and 0:54:28.680 --> 0:54:32.080 the wall that the president, especially given where the national 0:54:32.080 --> 0:54:34.239 conversation has been on this, I think the president is 0:54:34.280 --> 0:54:37.600 likely to win on that issue. I think the President's 0:54:37.640 --> 0:54:41.319 likely to get his way on the issue of the wall, 0:54:41.360 --> 0:54:43.160 which is which is a good thing, and to win 0:54:43.239 --> 0:54:45.879 four more years in office as a result. So while 0:54:45.880 --> 0:54:51.000 this is imperfect, it's not it's not a total loss 0:54:51.040 --> 0:54:52.840 and it could over the long run. I think actually 0:54:52.840 --> 0:54:55.160 work in the President's favor more than we realize right now. 0:54:55.160 --> 0:54:56.960 But I've got more on that coming up in a moment. 0:55:00.840 --> 0:55:03.160 This is part of a national security who's never done 0:55:03.160 --> 0:55:06.440 this under a national emergency where president but we declared 0:55:06.520 --> 0:55:10.000 national emergency to promote democracy in Belarus, to promote democracy, 0:55:10.320 --> 0:55:13.440 and is involved. But it didn't affect money that Congress 0:55:13.480 --> 0:55:16.319 refused to appropriate. They didn't affuse to appropriate it. They 0:55:16.360 --> 0:55:19.440 passed a law specifically saying the president could have this authority. 0:55:19.480 --> 0:55:22.920 It's in the Plane Statute. That's a decision that Congress made. 0:55:23.200 --> 0:55:25.400 And people don't like that, they can address it. I 0:55:25.480 --> 0:55:29.719 guarantee you this. If Donald Trump had said he's invoking 0:55:29.719 --> 0:55:33.680 the National Emergency Military construction authority to build a security 0:55:33.680 --> 0:55:38.440 perimeter in Iraq or Afghanistan around a military installation in Syria, 0:55:38.520 --> 0:55:41.600 there would not have been one word of objection from Congress. 0:55:41.640 --> 0:55:46.920 This is defending our own country. Stephen Miller is not 0:55:47.080 --> 0:55:49.960 exactly a warm and fuzzy guy, the president's advisor, mostly 0:55:49.960 --> 0:55:54.880 on immigration, but he's sharp. He says a lot of 0:55:55.080 --> 0:55:59.239 very astute stuff, especially on the issue of immigration, and 0:55:59.360 --> 0:56:02.000 he's correct. You know we have all of these people, 0:56:02.040 --> 0:56:05.000 and I gotta tell you, I find some of the 0:56:05.040 --> 0:56:09.680 conservatives and conservatives on this issue a little annoying, a 0:56:09.719 --> 0:56:13.160 little preachy, without really understanding the full context here. National 0:56:13.160 --> 0:56:17.160 emergencies have been declared many, many times before for much 0:56:17.680 --> 0:56:24.360 lesser issues than this. Congress gave the president the authority 0:56:24.360 --> 0:56:27.600 to do this, as as Miller says, it is plainly 0:56:27.800 --> 0:56:32.399 in the language of the statute. So for people to 0:56:32.440 --> 0:56:35.719 say that this is wrong, that Trump shouldn't do this, 0:56:35.800 --> 0:56:37.800 even if it's in the statute, what they're really saying 0:56:37.920 --> 0:56:39.640 is that the Congress was wrong when they gave the 0:56:39.680 --> 0:56:42.680 president this authority. But that doesn't mean the president's wrong 0:56:42.920 --> 0:56:47.680 for using that authority. As I've been saying, and others 0:56:47.719 --> 0:56:49.480 I think have picked up on this a little bit 0:56:49.520 --> 0:56:53.000 more in the last few days, this idea that we 0:56:53.080 --> 0:56:56.799 really need to be careful with how we go forward here, 0:56:56.840 --> 0:56:59.320 because we don't want to set a president that Democrats 0:56:59.320 --> 0:57:04.719 will abuse. Democrats have already been abusing the authority of 0:57:04.719 --> 0:57:07.080 the president on issues of immigration, on a whole bunch 0:57:07.120 --> 0:57:10.799 of issues, Obama said dozens of times he did not 0:57:10.960 --> 0:57:14.840 have the unilateral authority to prevent the deportation of people 0:57:14.840 --> 0:57:18.560 that were in America illegally, and that the Congressional statutes 0:57:18.920 --> 0:57:22.760 on illegal aliens in this country must prevail. Guess what 0:57:23.040 --> 0:57:25.240 he couldn't get what he wanted from Congress, changed his mind, 0:57:25.280 --> 0:57:27.520 said yeah, now we have dhaka, and not only do 0:57:27.560 --> 0:57:35.000 we have it the hashtag resistance. Judiciary Ninth Circuit, among others, 0:57:35.520 --> 0:57:40.040 refused to allow the current president the discretion to undo 0:57:40.080 --> 0:57:44.360 the discretion of his predecessor. I mean, this is the 0:57:44.600 --> 0:57:48.640 last president says I only want strawberry ice cream, and 0:57:48.720 --> 0:57:50.680 this president comes along and says, no, you know, I'd 0:57:50.720 --> 0:57:53.200 actually like you know, I'd actually like mint chocolate chip 0:57:53.200 --> 0:57:55.680 ice cream. Oh, if you can't do that, the last 0:57:55.720 --> 0:57:58.320 president said he likes strawberry ice cream. Well, hold on 0:57:58.320 --> 0:58:00.120 a second. I thought the presidents allowed to decide one 0:58:00.160 --> 0:58:05.040 way or the other. Of course he is. But judges 0:58:05.280 --> 0:58:08.520 view themselves as political actors the same way that the 0:58:08.520 --> 0:58:10.560 head of the FBI or the head of the CIA. 0:58:10.680 --> 0:58:15.680 You know, all these different institutionalists that hold themselves up 0:58:15.720 --> 0:58:18.600 as the guaranteurs of our democracy. What we're seeing is 0:58:18.600 --> 0:58:23.920 that they're really just people who can't separate out their 0:58:24.080 --> 0:58:31.400 role in the government from their partisan ideology. But but 0:58:31.560 --> 0:58:35.959 Miller here is correct. I don't find the argument about 0:58:36.080 --> 0:58:40.680 overreach from Trump compelling because Democrats are definitely not. There's 0:58:40.680 --> 0:58:42.760 no serious person who's going to say, well, if you 0:58:42.800 --> 0:58:46.520 have a President Sanders, you know, fine, fine, have President 0:58:46.520 --> 0:58:49.320 Sanders declare an emergency on trying to take all everyone's guns, 0:58:49.400 --> 0:58:53.080 or have a President Kamala Harris say that, you know, 0:58:53.160 --> 0:58:56.000 climate change means that we have to have an additional 0:58:56.360 --> 0:58:59.320 dollar tax on every gallon of gasoline or whatever, twenty 0:58:59.320 --> 0:59:02.320 five percent than every gallon of gasoline soul. It'll go 0:59:02.360 --> 0:59:04.560 into the courts and she'll, hey, you know, she'll she'll winner, 0:59:04.600 --> 0:59:08.600 shall lose, just like what we have now. Don't think 0:59:08.640 --> 0:59:15.240 for a second that President Trump's decision on his own 0:59:15.320 --> 0:59:17.760 to hold back his own and to hold back his hand, 0:59:17.960 --> 0:59:20.600 that that's going to result in good faith from Democrats. 0:59:20.640 --> 0:59:25.320 I mean, that's just that's an unserious position. That's not 0:59:25.440 --> 0:59:29.520 a perspective that any person who knows the Democratic Party 0:59:29.560 --> 0:59:35.240 should be taking. And remember that, you know, the way 0:59:35.280 --> 0:59:39.120 that Trump has set this whole thing up. We finally 0:59:39.160 --> 0:59:43.240 are having a conversation about this. If nothing else, there's 0:59:43.240 --> 0:59:45.560 a greater awareness of what the Democrats really believe in 0:59:45.600 --> 0:59:50.040 what they really think about the border, and that's a 0:59:50.040 --> 0:59:52.520 part of this that I have to say as I 0:59:52.560 --> 0:59:55.880 go forward. I'm not a fan of the bill that 0:59:55.920 --> 1:00:00.400 the President signed, but that said, at least now I 1:00:00.440 --> 1:00:03.280 think there's an awareness of the American people that could 1:00:03.360 --> 1:00:06.920 be a major determining factor the next election for what 1:00:06.960 --> 1:00:11.720 everyone's going to think about how this is going to go. That's, 1:00:12.480 --> 1:00:15.320 you know, I'm hopeful, at least I am hopeful. I 1:00:15.320 --> 1:00:17.600 can't say that I have an answer here to all this. 1:00:18.480 --> 1:00:22.440 You know, you also have the data. You know, Democrats 1:00:22.440 --> 1:00:25.160 always talk about data like they care about what the 1:00:25.320 --> 1:00:28.840 realities of the border, whether it's you know, somehow every 1:00:29.200 --> 1:00:33.200 data set supports they're thinking on how illegals are great, 1:00:33.240 --> 1:00:36.680 illegals aren't a problem, the border secure. You know. The 1:00:37.200 --> 1:00:41.440 dumbest talking point you hear is, oh, the border crossings 1:00:41.440 --> 1:00:43.840 are actually at record lows, well record low compared to what, 1:00:46.040 --> 1:00:48.320 let me put it you this way. New York City 1:00:48.320 --> 1:00:51.400 had over two thousand murders in nineteen ninety three. I 1:00:51.440 --> 1:00:53.200 forget what the exact number is, but New York City 1:00:53.280 --> 1:00:55.960 over two thousand murders. A couple of years ago, New 1:00:56.000 --> 1:01:00.760 York City had roughly three hundred murders. If the number 1:01:00.800 --> 1:01:04.560 of murders doubled in one year, would people be able 1:01:04.560 --> 1:01:07.600 to say, oh, that's no problem, because in nineteen ninety three, 1:01:08.080 --> 1:01:10.240 nineteen ninety three, they had two thousand murders. So you know, 1:01:10.400 --> 1:01:12.200 then the murders double in one year, there's nothing to 1:01:12.240 --> 1:01:15.800 see here. This is idiocy. This is what democrats are doing. 1:01:15.800 --> 1:01:18.800 They're saying, well, because the country was just straight up 1:01:18.800 --> 1:01:22.720 being invaded by illegals every day at some point during 1:01:22.720 --> 1:01:25.360 the nineteen nineties the early two thousands, that there's not 1:01:25.360 --> 1:01:28.320 a problem anymore. No, in fact, the problem is even worse, 1:01:28.920 --> 1:01:32.760 given that the illegals already in the country are a 1:01:32.840 --> 1:01:35.880 huge issue, and adding to that number makes it even 1:01:35.960 --> 1:01:40.880 more unsustainable, makes our immigration system even more burdened. It's 1:01:40.880 --> 1:01:45.520 a it's a bigger catastrophe in that is unfolding right 1:01:45.520 --> 1:01:50.120 before us. Because you have twenty million illegals in America. 1:01:50.320 --> 1:01:52.920 So the extra five hundred thousand, you know, we are 1:01:53.000 --> 1:01:54.960 at a tipping point, we are at the point of 1:01:55.000 --> 1:01:59.040 no return. But you hear this talking point, Oh, you know, 1:01:59.440 --> 1:02:03.479 it's historic lows across the Gether border. Fifty thousand a month. 1:02:04.560 --> 1:02:07.200 Does anyone care? What what the what the number was 1:02:07.240 --> 1:02:10.600 twenty thirty years ago. You know, it's already too many. 1:02:10.760 --> 1:02:14.680 If I have a rowboat, okay, and and the rowbot, 1:02:14.800 --> 1:02:16.440 rowboat's not a good idea, you know, if I have 1:02:16.480 --> 1:02:21.280 a boat and it can it can take fifty people. 1:02:22.400 --> 1:02:25.760 And you had in you know, and a couple of 1:02:25.840 --> 1:02:29.840 days ago, I had forty people come on my rowboat 1:02:30.320 --> 1:02:32.400 or on my boat, and now it's at ninety. Now 1:02:32.400 --> 1:02:35.800 it's way over capacity. And then we every day now 1:02:35.880 --> 1:02:39.560 another person, another person, another person. It's a crisis that 1:02:39.640 --> 1:02:43.280 my boat is overloaded. That a lot of people came 1:02:43.320 --> 1:02:45.080 a few days ago and only a few people coming now. 1:02:45.120 --> 1:02:47.520 It doesn't change the fact that the boat is overloaded. 1:02:48.480 --> 1:02:50.880 And if you don't stop, the whole thing's gonna sink. 1:02:51.320 --> 1:02:53.280 That's the way to think of the illegal alien problem 1:02:53.320 --> 1:02:57.360 in this country. They, of course don't view it that way. 1:02:57.400 --> 1:03:00.680 Tom Hooman understands that they're ignoring the data. They're ignoring 1:03:00.680 --> 1:03:04.000 the data on drugs, on illegal immigration, on all of 1:03:04.040 --> 1:03:07.120 the place sixteen And look, if you look at the data, 1:03:07.120 --> 1:03:09.240 they're all ignoring the data. The data is clear. Every 1:03:09.240 --> 1:03:12.960 place a war barrier has been built, has resulted in 1:03:13.080 --> 1:03:17.480 decreased illeg immigration to increase drug flaw. It's proven. So 1:03:17.560 --> 1:03:19.640 they're ignoring the data. And if they want to run 1:03:19.640 --> 1:03:21.919 for president, they need to understand their first their first 1:03:22.000 --> 1:03:25.120 order business to protective country. So another thing they talk about, 1:03:25.160 --> 1:03:27.560 what most drugs come to the port of entry, Well, no, 1:03:27.760 --> 1:03:30.040 that's not true. Most drugs are seized data port of 1:03:30.120 --> 1:03:33.360 entry because every vehicle stopped, every person's talked to, so 1:03:33.440 --> 1:03:35.680 of course they're gonna find more drugs there. So again 1:03:35.800 --> 1:03:38.960 using the data against this president. This is about political 1:03:39.000 --> 1:03:41.520 hatred for this president and not about national security of 1:03:41.520 --> 1:03:46.920 public safety. It's all true. What he's saying is true. 1:03:47.400 --> 1:03:50.120 They hate this president. They oppose this president, and they 1:03:50.200 --> 1:03:55.440 also are the Democrats are favorable toward illegal immigration. They 1:03:55.600 --> 1:03:59.240 believe in illegal immigration as a good thing for this country. 1:03:59.120 --> 1:04:03.600 They want more of it. And I think that that's 1:04:04.160 --> 1:04:08.000 very dangerous for a number of reasons, you know, And 1:04:08.040 --> 1:04:09.960 if they disagree that it's dangerous, then I want to 1:04:09.960 --> 1:04:11.640 know why shouldn't we You know, they can't have it 1:04:11.720 --> 1:04:15.000 both ways. I want a legal and orderly immigration system. 1:04:15.040 --> 1:04:17.880 I want people that obey US law to come into 1:04:17.880 --> 1:04:20.200 the country. I want our laws in the interior the 1:04:20.240 --> 1:04:22.840 country to be enforced when it comes to legal aliens, 1:04:23.000 --> 1:04:28.760 because my expectation is that everybody, everybody is subject to 1:04:29.200 --> 1:04:31.800 US federal law on our soil, and that the laws 1:04:31.960 --> 1:04:35.400 have meaning. You know, otherwise I don't want to pay 1:04:35.440 --> 1:04:38.640 my taxes. Okay, if the laws have no meaning, because 1:04:38.680 --> 1:04:40.919 it's not a big deal if you break them, then 1:04:41.000 --> 1:04:43.280 I don't want to pay my taxes. So I just 1:04:43.360 --> 1:04:47.240 want clarity from the federal government on that point. But 1:04:47.400 --> 1:04:50.600 if it's no problem for legal aliens, if it's no 1:04:50.640 --> 1:04:52.800 problem for legal aliens to be in the country more 1:04:52.840 --> 1:04:55.200 than to be coming in more people to be scamming 1:04:55.200 --> 1:04:59.600 the asylum system, then I need an explanation of why 1:04:59.640 --> 1:05:06.040 we shouldn't be open borders, Why why we shouldn't be 1:05:06.160 --> 1:05:10.000 in a position where we just take as many people 1:05:10.040 --> 1:05:14.320 as we absolutely possibly can. You know, there's there's no 1:05:14.600 --> 1:05:17.880 You get no answers from a left about this. They 1:05:17.920 --> 1:05:22.080 never explain what the downside is. They only jump down 1:05:22.120 --> 1:05:24.360 your throat when you say there's a downside, but they 1:05:24.400 --> 1:05:27.200 never they never explain what the downside is, So which 1:05:27.280 --> 1:05:32.440 is it? They cannot answer my question about if there's 1:05:32.480 --> 1:05:35.800 nothing wrong with illegal immigration, which is their position de facto. 1:05:36.080 --> 1:05:39.560 Why don't we want more illegal immigration? Why shouldn't they 1:05:39.560 --> 1:05:42.720 be pushing for more legal immigration. They'm telling you they 1:05:42.800 --> 1:05:47.080 don't have any answers to this. They have no response 1:05:48.120 --> 1:05:50.280 when pushed on this, And if we had an honest 1:05:50.280 --> 1:05:55.120 press corps, they would be hammering this point all the time. 1:05:55.160 --> 1:05:56.800 But we do not, as you know, have an honest 1:05:56.840 --> 1:05:59.320 press corps. We have a bunch of left wing activist hacks. 1:06:00.520 --> 1:06:07.480 Much to my chagrin. Everybody says, well, less people are 1:06:07.480 --> 1:06:09.880 coming and came, you know back early when there's a 1:06:09.880 --> 1:06:11.520 million people a year, But they got to understand the 1:06:11.600 --> 1:06:14.280 dynamics of who's coming back. Then I was a board 1:06:14.360 --> 1:06:16.960 chol agent. If there's a million people, most of them 1:06:16.960 --> 1:06:19.720 were arrested and removed the same day because their Mexican nationals. 1:06:20.000 --> 1:06:24.440 Now we have a cartel members are that are are 1:06:24.480 --> 1:06:27.200 planning what's happening because they're using the loopholes to move 1:06:27.200 --> 1:06:29.440 people in the country to claim asylum. To the loopholes, 1:06:29.640 --> 1:06:32.200 they don't leave. I mean, ninety two percent of them 1:06:32.240 --> 1:06:34.720 loser case in front of immigration judge and only two 1:06:34.720 --> 1:06:37.640 percent leave. So it's a whole different dynamic That's why 1:06:37.680 --> 1:06:40.000 the numbers that the total numbers come across isn't as 1:06:40.000 --> 1:06:43.520 important as who's coming across. I don't even know we 1:06:44.000 --> 1:06:46.120 pulled out a brake. I don't even know that that. Tom, 1:06:46.200 --> 1:06:49.680 their former ICE director, Tom Homan, was going to wait 1:06:49.800 --> 1:06:51.600 on that one too. But sure enough, there is right 1:06:51.720 --> 1:06:54.440 right right where I needed them on that because you 1:06:54.520 --> 1:06:56.280 hear this, Oh, the number is not that high compared 1:06:56.320 --> 1:06:57.600 with what the number used to be. Yeah, but every 1:06:57.600 --> 1:07:00.280 fifty thousand that comes and now is staying for ever 1:07:01.520 --> 1:07:05.560 they're going to stay. That makes a huge difference as well. 1:07:05.600 --> 1:07:07.480 So you already have a huge, as I pointed out, 1:07:07.480 --> 1:07:12.840 illegal alien population. But beyond that, whoever shows up now 1:07:12.920 --> 1:07:16.320 under the current system and claims asylum, they're not going anywhere. 1:07:16.360 --> 1:07:19.720 And there is an amnesty on the horizon if Democrats 1:07:19.760 --> 1:07:23.400 get back in power. We all know this. We all 1:07:23.440 --> 1:07:28.240 know this. There is a there is an absolute Democrat 1:07:29.160 --> 1:07:34.040 mandate to get a multi million person amnesty done. And 1:07:34.160 --> 1:07:39.840 keep in mind, whatever whatever the number is that they 1:07:39.840 --> 1:07:41.680 tell you, whatever the number is that they tell you, 1:07:42.200 --> 1:07:44.720 that's just going to be a fraction of what the 1:07:44.800 --> 1:07:49.560 overall number is. Who either officially or unofficially get asylum 1:07:49.640 --> 1:07:52.800 because they stay in the country forever. It'll just be 1:07:52.840 --> 1:07:54.840 a if they say at three million, it'll be more 1:07:54.840 --> 1:08:00.280 like six or ten. Don't believe them. They don't don't 1:08:00.600 --> 1:08:03.600 want you to know the truth here, just like how 1:08:03.640 --> 1:08:05.919 they're telling you, oh, there's no crisis the border because 1:08:05.920 --> 1:08:08.360 there used to be more people legally coming over. Well, 1:08:08.520 --> 1:08:10.840 we didn't have twenty million already in the country illegally. 1:08:10.880 --> 1:08:12.880 And on top of that, as home and points out here, 1:08:13.600 --> 1:08:15.400 a lot of the people that were coming in illegally 1:08:15.440 --> 1:08:17.200 back in the nineties, as soon as they were caught, 1:08:17.240 --> 1:08:20.760 they were deported. Now, deportation is supposed to be if 1:08:20.760 --> 1:08:25.280 you're a Democrat, you think deportation is reserved for really 1:08:25.320 --> 1:08:27.559 really bad MS thirteen guys, and that's pretty much it. 1:08:27.720 --> 1:08:30.080 Nobody else should get deported. Nobody else should get sent 1:08:30.120 --> 1:08:32.439 back to Mexico or in this case, you know a 1:08:32.439 --> 1:08:34.519 lot of them will be from Honduras or from wherever. 1:08:37.360 --> 1:08:40.559 We have on the books right now a law that 1:08:40.600 --> 1:08:43.400 we can deny visas from countries that don't take back 1:08:43.439 --> 1:08:46.960 their four nationals that come here illegally. We don't use it. 1:08:48.240 --> 1:08:49.800 We're not willing to use it any By the way, 1:08:49.840 --> 1:08:52.519 here's a story on immigration that you're not going to 1:08:52.600 --> 1:08:56.560 see covered very widely. You're not going to see a 1:08:56.600 --> 1:08:59.840 lot of people who have interest in this. But I 1:09:00.120 --> 1:09:01.680 certainly care about it, and I have a feeling all 1:09:01.680 --> 1:09:05.800 of you do too. Dozens, This is the Washington Examiner. Today. 1:09:05.960 --> 1:09:10.400 Dozens of demonstrators occupied and vandalized a privately owned US 1:09:10.439 --> 1:09:14.920 Border Patrol museum near El Paso, Texas. Museum director David 1:09:14.960 --> 1:09:17.439 Ham told The Washington Examiner his staff and guests worried 1:09:17.479 --> 1:09:20.559 for their safety Saturday when a group of about fifty 1:09:20.800 --> 1:09:24.800 protesters entered the facility, defaced property, and refused to leave 1:09:24.840 --> 1:09:29.120 the ground. Quote say it loud, say it clear, Border 1:09:29.160 --> 1:09:33.759 Patrol kills. Group members standing inside and outside the facility yelled. 1:09:34.720 --> 1:09:37.000 Security cameras set up outside of the private museum and 1:09:37.080 --> 1:09:39.840 captured protesters pulling into the parking lot and putting on 1:09:39.920 --> 1:09:43.360 face masks before going in around two fifteen pm local time. 1:09:44.600 --> 1:09:46.920 It was really intimidating to our staff, plus their kind 1:09:46.920 --> 1:09:50.240 of aggressive attitude of museum officials said. The museum is 1:09:50.240 --> 1:09:54.759 a nonprofit, it's a political So you had a bunch 1:09:54.800 --> 1:09:59.479 of as we know, left wing Border Patrol, left wing 1:09:59.520 --> 1:10:04.760 antiboard patrol, lunatics storming a border patrol museum and saying 1:10:04.760 --> 1:10:08.760 that border patrol kills people. You know, this is this 1:10:08.840 --> 1:10:12.879 is the true left is anti law enforcement in this country. 1:10:13.600 --> 1:10:16.000 You have a little bit of a break in that 1:10:16.360 --> 1:10:18.599 tradition on the left wing right now because they're so 1:10:19.080 --> 1:10:22.360 they're just all given the FBI a foot massage all 1:10:22.360 --> 1:10:24.600 the time. Oh, the FBI is so wonderful. All the 1:10:24.720 --> 1:10:27.599 Muller probe is amazing. You know anything from the Muller probe. Oh, 1:10:29.000 --> 1:10:33.200 it's just partisan politics. I mean, they're not really in 1:10:33.280 --> 1:10:38.640 any way concerned with bolstering the reputations of these law 1:10:38.720 --> 1:10:42.479 enforcement agencies over the long term. But but Democrats in 1:10:42.560 --> 1:10:45.160 the left, they think the cops are racist, that the 1:10:45.200 --> 1:10:50.400 cops are far often they are too violent, you know, 1:10:50.520 --> 1:10:57.280 all this stuff. And yet and yet the FBI is 1:10:58.080 --> 1:11:03.640 beyond border patrol. Those here, border patrol is terrible. They 1:11:03.680 --> 1:11:05.840 hate border patrol. You know, the Border Patrol is aware 1:11:05.840 --> 1:11:07.519 of this too. I spoke to a lot of those 1:11:07.560 --> 1:11:09.439 guys when I was out in San Diego visiting them 1:11:09.439 --> 1:11:13.599 a few weeks back, and they're aware of the politics 1:11:13.600 --> 1:11:16.599 the Democratic Party plays here. They're aware that the same 1:11:16.640 --> 1:11:19.360 people to chant abolish ice, would really like to abolish 1:11:19.360 --> 1:11:23.080 border patrol, and they would like to abolish any local 1:11:23.200 --> 1:11:26.799 law enforcement or sheriff's departments that are helpful to immigration 1:11:26.840 --> 1:11:28.880 and customs enforcement on this issue, that are that are 1:11:28.920 --> 1:11:32.240 helpful to the enforcement of our laws. This is a 1:11:32.280 --> 1:11:34.280 battle for the future of the country. This is why 1:11:34.400 --> 1:11:36.920 I find this topic so important for this show, so 1:11:37.120 --> 1:11:38.760 we spend the time that we do want it. This 1:11:38.920 --> 1:11:41.360 is a battle for the future of America, make no 1:11:41.479 --> 1:11:44.559 mistake about it. And the Democrats are not on the 1:11:44.560 --> 1:11:46.120 side of the rule of law here. They're not on 1:11:46.160 --> 1:11:48.000 the side of truth They're not on the side of justice. 1:11:48.040 --> 1:11:52.800 They're on the side of power lawlessness that leads to 1:11:52.880 --> 1:11:57.519 their power. And they don't really care about all these 1:11:57.600 --> 1:12:00.320 legal aliens either on some deep personal level. That's just 1:12:00.400 --> 1:12:04.080 virtue signaling from them. They really just care about being 1:12:04.120 --> 1:12:08.200 able to hashtag how much they care about them, which 1:12:08.240 --> 1:12:14.040 is not the same thing. Some of you may recall 1:12:14.840 --> 1:12:21.360 Lara Logan, she was a CBS reporter on the Rise, 1:12:21.439 --> 1:12:27.360 I mean, somebody who I think was the heir apparent 1:12:27.439 --> 1:12:34.600 to some of the the bigger platforms in the legacy media. 1:12:35.000 --> 1:12:39.840 She says, I believe South African incredibly beautiful and a 1:12:39.960 --> 1:12:47.000 very sharp reporter, and she was reporting on the Terrier 1:12:47.080 --> 1:12:52.600 Square protests early on in the the Arab Spring Revolution, 1:12:53.600 --> 1:12:56.320 and the reporting on this was always a little bit 1:12:57.080 --> 1:12:58.960 for those of us that were following it closely, there 1:12:59.080 --> 1:13:02.000 was always just effort to not really say exactly what 1:13:02.080 --> 1:13:06.120 had happened. But later on it came out that she 1:13:06.320 --> 1:13:10.599 was she was sexually assaulted by a by a mob. 1:13:10.640 --> 1:13:13.799 She was gang raped in the middle of Terior Square 1:13:14.439 --> 1:13:21.679 by a bunch of Egyptian protesters, separated from her camera crew. 1:13:22.080 --> 1:13:27.360 Just just the worst kind of vicious mob activity. And 1:13:27.920 --> 1:13:30.960 because so many reporters, I think were very invested in 1:13:30.960 --> 1:13:33.640 the narrative of, oh, this uprising and it was this 1:13:34.320 --> 1:13:37.080 flowering of democracy in Egypt, which we know was wasn't 1:13:37.080 --> 1:13:40.360 really what's happening. It was actually really an Islamist uprising 1:13:40.360 --> 1:13:45.160 in many ways, but they they didn't they didn't want 1:13:45.160 --> 1:13:47.719 to tell this story the way that they would have otherwise. 1:13:48.760 --> 1:13:52.800 There was a muted rage from the press, even when 1:13:52.880 --> 1:13:57.360 one of their own was violated in this way, because 1:13:57.400 --> 1:14:00.559 they didn't want it to taint the whole movement in Egypt, 1:14:00.920 --> 1:14:07.960 which would show itself to be largely a movement of Islamists, 1:14:08.080 --> 1:14:11.439 and you know, the Muslim Brotherhood came to power and 1:14:11.560 --> 1:14:14.840 a lot of very bad stuff bubbling up from from 1:14:14.880 --> 1:14:20.280 under the surface there. But the media's treatment of Lara 1:14:20.360 --> 1:14:23.880 Logan after this, I think was disgusting. I think the 1:14:23.920 --> 1:14:27.760 way that they've never really come to grips with what 1:14:27.920 --> 1:14:30.760 happened to her as a colleague of Theirs, and how 1:14:30.800 --> 1:14:33.160 they failed to really report on this, failed to really 1:14:33.160 --> 1:14:37.720 talk about it. And she was very critical of Islamism 1:14:37.920 --> 1:14:40.200 and out of radical Islam after this and saying that 1:14:40.200 --> 1:14:43.280 the press was essentially blind to this, and she's right, 1:14:43.360 --> 1:14:46.799 I mean, the mainstream media in America takes this position 1:14:46.920 --> 1:14:51.400 of you know, Muslim societies and Islamists in those societies 1:14:51.840 --> 1:14:54.320 are every bit as moral and ethical as what we 1:14:54.400 --> 1:15:00.160 have in Western democracies. No, that's just not really true. 1:15:00.760 --> 1:15:06.120 You know, Islamists are contrary to liberal values. Islamists are 1:15:06.439 --> 1:15:09.080 not feminists, right, I mean, this is where you get 1:15:09.120 --> 1:15:11.280 into this debate that's fallen out of the public eye 1:15:11.320 --> 1:15:13.280 for a while now. But you know, the left wing 1:15:13.320 --> 1:15:17.400 media likes to treat Islam is much more progressive and 1:15:17.600 --> 1:15:22.439 open minded than it is. So she has said some 1:15:22.560 --> 1:15:24.400 very interesting things about that. I've actually always wanted to 1:15:24.439 --> 1:15:26.080 have her on radio. We're gonna reach out to her again. 1:15:26.080 --> 1:15:27.599 I don't know if she'll come on the show or not. 1:15:28.760 --> 1:15:31.880 But she recently gave an interview where she was talking 1:15:31.920 --> 1:15:35.400 about where they remember she was CBS. She was doing 1:15:35.479 --> 1:15:38.720 I think it was sixty minutes sometimes a correspondent. It's 1:15:38.720 --> 1:15:42.080 a big foreign core, big foreign core for them. She's 1:15:42.080 --> 1:15:44.680 a big deal. And then this terrible thing happened to 1:15:44.680 --> 1:15:46.880 her and the media. I was like, oh, well, you know, 1:15:46.960 --> 1:15:50.120 her story doesn't really fit in with and this this 1:15:50.200 --> 1:15:52.519 is the you know, in an era where me too 1:15:52.680 --> 1:15:56.960 is such a I mean, this woman was was brutally 1:15:57.880 --> 1:16:00.639 sexually assaulted by a mob, but it was a mob 1:16:01.040 --> 1:16:05.679 that the press did not want to demonize. They didn't 1:16:05.680 --> 1:16:07.519 want to demonize them. That's just what it came down to. 1:16:08.120 --> 1:16:10.439 So there was a muted reaction about this. And I 1:16:10.520 --> 1:16:13.160 remember this, and I've covered I've covered Lara Logan's story 1:16:13.160 --> 1:16:16.080 on this show, stretching back now I think twenty twelve, 1:16:17.439 --> 1:16:21.160 for so many years ago. But she talked recently about 1:16:21.240 --> 1:16:23.719 this media that she knows very well, and she knows 1:16:23.760 --> 1:16:25.960 as somebody who was once an insider with them and 1:16:26.000 --> 1:16:29.040 has now been because she's spoken truth on a number 1:16:29.040 --> 1:16:31.599 of it she was, including Islam. She's kind of an 1:16:31.600 --> 1:16:34.519 outsider with them now and has seen that they're willing 1:16:34.560 --> 1:16:36.600 to push her off the island. You know, she's no 1:16:36.680 --> 1:16:39.400 longer a member of the family. And here's what Lara 1:16:39.520 --> 1:16:42.519 Logan of CBS News had to say about this play 1:16:42.600 --> 1:16:45.960 twenty two. How do you know you're being lied to? 1:16:46.160 --> 1:16:48.559 How do you know you're being manipulated? How do you 1:16:48.680 --> 1:16:52.320 know there's something not right with the coverage when they 1:16:52.360 --> 1:16:57.000 simplify it all and there's no gray's no gray, it's 1:16:57.040 --> 1:17:00.240 all one way. Well, life isn't like that. If it 1:17:00.280 --> 1:17:04.960 doesn't match real life, it's probably not. Something's wrong, right. 1:17:05.360 --> 1:17:08.759 All the coverage on Trump all the time is negative. 1:17:09.720 --> 1:17:15.280 There's nothing. There's nothing, no mitigating policy or event or 1:17:15.320 --> 1:17:19.040 anything that has happened since he was elected that is 1:17:19.080 --> 1:17:21.840 out there in the media is that you can read about, right, Well, 1:17:21.840 --> 1:17:24.840 that tells you that's distortion of where things go in 1:17:24.880 --> 1:17:29.160 real life. Because although the media has always been historically 1:17:29.240 --> 1:17:36.080 always been left leaning, we've abandoned our pretense or at 1:17:36.160 --> 1:17:39.719 least the effort to be objective today. The former executive 1:17:39.800 --> 1:17:41.639 editor of The New York Times has a book coming out, 1:17:41.760 --> 1:17:46.519 Jill Abramson, and she says, we would do I don't know, 1:17:46.840 --> 1:17:50.320 dozens of stories about Trump every single day, and every 1:17:50.320 --> 1:17:52.920 single one of them was negative. She said, we have 1:17:53.080 --> 1:17:57.160 become the antique Trump paper of record. Well, that's not 1:17:57.240 --> 1:18:00.719 our job. That's a political position. That means we've become 1:18:01.200 --> 1:18:05.240 political activists in a sense. And some could argue propagandists, right, 1:18:05.240 --> 1:18:12.280 and there's some merit to that. Absolutely true. Everything she 1:18:12.400 --> 1:18:16.920 says there, and you know, she's a she is an insider, 1:18:16.960 --> 1:18:18.840 and the sense that she worked at CBS. She works 1:18:18.840 --> 1:18:22.280 at CBS and was very highly regarded for a while 1:18:22.320 --> 1:18:24.880 inside the mainstream media. Everything she says there is true. 1:18:25.840 --> 1:18:29.560 You know, it's not possible that the media is unbiased 1:18:29.600 --> 1:18:33.200 because everything they tell you about Trump is that he's horrible. 1:18:34.040 --> 1:18:36.320 You look around and you see what's happening in the country, 1:18:36.400 --> 1:18:38.800 and you see what's objectively going on. You say, well, 1:18:38.840 --> 1:18:41.680 hold on a second, everything's not horrible. So how can 1:18:41.760 --> 1:18:44.000 every story about Trump be about how terrible he is? 1:18:45.640 --> 1:18:48.880 You know? And then for those who say, oh, buck, 1:18:48.920 --> 1:18:51.519 there's it's not a bias they're just reporting what's what's there, 1:18:51.640 --> 1:18:54.080 what the facts are. Well, how is it that half 1:18:54.120 --> 1:18:56.920 the country doesn't view this president is terrible? But all 1:18:56.920 --> 1:18:58.680 of the news coverage you see for most of these 1:18:58.680 --> 1:19:03.120 outlets reflects on him as absolutely terrible. You know, you're 1:19:03.160 --> 1:19:06.680 being lined too. And she said I think also in 1:19:06.680 --> 1:19:10.320 this interview that she thinks that you know that there 1:19:10.439 --> 1:19:17.240 is a sense of committing professional suicide here and that 1:19:17.600 --> 1:19:19.920 she recognizes that this is going to be held against her. 1:19:19.960 --> 1:19:23.760 And it's true the lib media never forgets. She even says, 1:19:23.800 --> 1:19:26.080 go look at things like Breitbart to get another get 1:19:26.120 --> 1:19:28.040 the other side of the equation. You know, I read 1:19:28.120 --> 1:19:31.000 lib stuff all the time. I know what they think. 1:19:31.800 --> 1:19:34.639 Libs don't know what I think. I had idiots today 1:19:34.720 --> 1:19:36.439 trying to tell me what I think about this or 1:19:36.520 --> 1:19:39.280 that because I didn't believe Jesse Smallett. I didn't believe 1:19:39.320 --> 1:19:42.439 Jesse Smallett because he's an imbecile and his lie wasn't 1:19:42.439 --> 1:19:46.280 even clever. I don't not believe Jesse Smallett because of 1:19:46.600 --> 1:19:49.280 you know what my white privilege or be. You don't know, 1:19:51.320 --> 1:19:53.840 But the Libs don't even know what you and I think. 1:19:54.880 --> 1:19:57.360 They don't even care to familiarize themselves with the other 1:19:57.400 --> 1:19:59.599 side of the argument. So I mean, I give Lara 1:19:59.680 --> 1:20:01.880 Logan credit up. I've always thought that she was a 1:20:01.920 --> 1:20:05.200 particularly interesting voice, and I think that she's been marginalized 1:20:05.240 --> 1:20:07.599 by the left because she's not as useful to them 1:20:07.640 --> 1:20:10.599 now and because she'll speak the truth. But Mike, let's 1:20:10.600 --> 1:20:13.360 get her on the show. Let's reach out. It reminds me, 1:20:13.400 --> 1:20:17.880 we gotta also talk about this Amazon aftermaths or and 1:20:17.920 --> 1:20:19.599 I was up. I was up in New York over 1:20:19.640 --> 1:20:23.160 the weekend, and you know, I gotta tell you, for 1:20:23.160 --> 1:20:25.120 the first time in a while, I'm a little worried 1:20:25.160 --> 1:20:28.800 about my hometown in terms of where it's going. I 1:20:28.880 --> 1:20:31.720 think that it's I think that it's glory days are 1:20:31.760 --> 1:20:34.160 behind it. I really do. And I think that it's 1:20:35.360 --> 1:20:37.920 just going to start to turn. It's on the way now. 1:20:38.080 --> 1:20:41.000 I really feel that the Amazon situation is kind of 1:20:41.000 --> 1:20:42.920 the Canaria in the coal mine, because you know, Wall 1:20:42.960 --> 1:20:46.120 Street's not really based in New York anymore. It's Wall 1:20:46.160 --> 1:20:49.160 Street is the financial industry. In fact, there's very few 1:20:49.360 --> 1:20:54.240 financial financial institutions that are even on Wall Street. But 1:20:54.560 --> 1:20:57.799 I think that the city and the social justice left 1:20:57.840 --> 1:21:00.760 and the democrat control. I think that it's now on 1:21:00.800 --> 1:21:05.080 the glide path downward toward not quite Detroit status. But 1:21:05.600 --> 1:21:07.800 it's going to start looking more like La with all 1:21:07.840 --> 1:21:10.800 the dysfunction and all the problems. Well, I'll explain why 1:21:11.200 --> 1:21:16.559 with this Amazon thing coming up, I seem to blame 1:21:16.640 --> 1:21:19.960 Amazon for walking away. But let me ask this. You 1:21:20.000 --> 1:21:21.800 also argue that it was a fair deal. Why did 1:21:21.840 --> 1:21:25.040 fellow progressives not trust you that you had come up 1:21:25.040 --> 1:21:27.960 with a good, fair deal? You call it on solid foundation, 1:21:28.560 --> 1:21:30.920 chuck it said democracy. I have no problem with my 1:21:30.960 --> 1:21:35.040 fellow progressives of critiquing a deal or wanting more from Amazon. 1:21:35.080 --> 1:21:38.160 I wanted more from Amazon too. But the bottom line 1:21:38.400 --> 1:21:41.880 is this is an example of an abuse of corporate power. 1:21:42.000 --> 1:21:44.800 Amazon just took their ball and went home. And what 1:21:44.840 --> 1:21:48.559 they did was confirmed people's worst fears about corporate America. 1:21:48.640 --> 1:21:51.640 Here's the one percent dictating everyone else, even though we 1:21:51.680 --> 1:21:53.680 gave them a fair deal. And I think it's going 1:21:53.720 --> 1:21:56.640 to frustrate people all over this country to see a 1:21:56.640 --> 1:22:01.560 company treat a neighborhood and a city like that. Everything 1:22:01.680 --> 1:22:08.160 that Kaiservillehelm Deblasio formerly known as Varrenville Helm, don't forget 1:22:08.240 --> 1:22:11.960 it changed his name as an adult. Yeah, because it's 1:22:11.960 --> 1:22:14.960 hard to run as like mister blue collar union guy 1:22:15.000 --> 1:22:19.519 in New York City when your name is Varrenvilhelm. Much 1:22:19.560 --> 1:22:22.720 better to be Billy Dublasio. Oh yeah, Billy Deblasio. Like 1:22:22.800 --> 1:22:25.360 I on a pizzeria was they put the pepperoni in 1:22:25.400 --> 1:22:31.800 all the perfect places on the pizza. So he changed 1:22:31.840 --> 1:22:33.559 his name, isn't it if you didn't know? That's true? Story? 1:22:33.600 --> 1:22:36.960 Actually did change his name as an adult, Warren Wilhelm. 1:22:37.000 --> 1:22:38.840 I think I was on I was guest hosting Rush 1:22:38.880 --> 1:22:41.880 Limbaugh Show years ago when I said I talked about 1:22:41.920 --> 1:22:45.880 Kaiser Wilhelm and people thought that I was making it up, 1:22:45.920 --> 1:22:47.920 and no, no, they checked it out. It turns out 1:22:47.920 --> 1:22:53.879 it's true. But this is amazing. Libs managed to scare 1:22:53.960 --> 1:22:56.839 Amazon away, and that is what they did. They scared 1:22:57.560 --> 1:23:02.680 Amazon away, and yet now they want to blame Amazon 1:23:02.840 --> 1:23:08.680 for this. You know, you have people like aoc Ocazio 1:23:08.760 --> 1:23:17.439 Quartez who are so deeply and shockingly ignorant of everything. Really, 1:23:17.520 --> 1:23:21.200 I mean, it just has no knowledge base to to 1:23:21.400 --> 1:23:24.840 speak of. It's like it's like we have an actor. 1:23:25.280 --> 1:23:28.080 She sounds the part, she looks the part. They they 1:23:28.240 --> 1:23:33.080 like the optics of Ocazio Quartez. But the substance is 1:23:33.120 --> 1:23:36.120 all just blather and I'm not gonna I'm not gonna, 1:23:36.160 --> 1:23:37.960 you know, beat around the bush here. It's kind of 1:23:38.000 --> 1:23:42.599 true about Bernie Sanders as well. You know, they like here, 1:23:42.760 --> 1:23:44.400 I sound like I kid about the people, and I 1:23:44.439 --> 1:23:46.200 want them all to have more stuff, and I want 1:23:46.200 --> 1:23:48.080 them all to have the free things. And you know, 1:23:48.120 --> 1:23:50.760 the billionaires and the millionaires, they're gonna pay all the 1:23:50.760 --> 1:23:53.439 stuff and you're not gonna pay anything. They do this, 1:23:53.560 --> 1:23:55.559 and well then when you get into the math and 1:23:55.600 --> 1:23:57.840 the reality of what the programs are that these people 1:23:57.880 --> 1:24:02.280 like Sanders and Okazi Quartez are push doesn't make any sense. 1:24:03.080 --> 1:24:06.120 But I would just know that, or rather I would 1:24:06.160 --> 1:24:10.680 note that the Amazon situation is a is a disaster 1:24:11.600 --> 1:24:15.880 for progressives. I mean, here is a digital company, right, 1:24:15.960 --> 1:24:21.080 an internet based company that is a monument to successful 1:24:21.160 --> 1:24:25.479 online capitalism, and it's going to bring tens of thousands 1:24:25.520 --> 1:24:28.840 of jobs into New York and it's going to and 1:24:28.840 --> 1:24:30.920 people say, oh no, the jobs are already there. Just 1:24:30.920 --> 1:24:34.080 means people are going to relocate there. Look, I've seen 1:24:34.200 --> 1:24:37.120 what parts of New York are like when there are 1:24:37.960 --> 1:24:40.800 jobs in the area and there are restaurants and their 1:24:40.880 --> 1:24:43.280 services that cater to the people that are in the 1:24:43.320 --> 1:24:45.400 area now because of the jobs and the homes. I've 1:24:45.439 --> 1:24:48.400 seen it. Okay, so this the pretense that some are 1:24:48.439 --> 1:24:51.120 going through that oh it doesn't matter that Amazon's not 1:24:51.160 --> 1:24:54.320 going to be there. That's just these people, you know 1:24:54.320 --> 1:24:57.559 that they don't know anything. They're just making stuff up. 1:24:57.680 --> 1:25:01.479 The same way that Occasio Cortez this is it's hard 1:25:01.520 --> 1:25:05.639 to believe that anybody in a position of authority could 1:25:05.640 --> 1:25:09.760 be quite this stupid. But it is true that she 1:25:10.040 --> 1:25:13.439 believes that the money that they were going to give 1:25:13.439 --> 1:25:16.720 in tax incentives, which means we're going to, if you 1:25:16.800 --> 1:25:20.920 come here, take less of your money in taxes as 1:25:20.960 --> 1:25:24.519 an inducement to get you to come here. She seemed 1:25:24.560 --> 1:25:26.960 to think that now that money is just money that 1:25:27.000 --> 1:25:32.000 we have, right. So, so Ocasio Cortez math is, Hey, 1:25:32.400 --> 1:25:35.599 if you buy this sweater from my store, I'll give 1:25:35.640 --> 1:25:38.679 you twenty percent off the hundred dollars that it costs, 1:25:38.720 --> 1:25:42.640 so it's eighty dollars. She thinks, oh no, I'm not 1:25:42.680 --> 1:25:45.160 going to sell that to the customer. Now. I just 1:25:45.200 --> 1:25:49.080 happen to have twenty bucks and a sweater. She doesn't 1:25:49.120 --> 1:25:52.640 get it. She doesn't understand how the very basics of 1:25:53.760 --> 1:25:58.559 economics or just the basics of an economics transaction works here, 1:25:58.800 --> 1:26:01.760 but they don't care. I find it fascinating that the 1:26:01.840 --> 1:26:05.160 same people who are telling us that Trump lacks intellectual 1:26:05.160 --> 1:26:09.360 curiosity and knowledge, they think that Okazia Cortez is just wonderful. 1:26:10.680 --> 1:26:13.520 They think that she's just fine. And whether it's Deblasio 1:26:13.680 --> 1:26:18.080 or Kazio Cortesi and all these socialists, this is what 1:26:18.120 --> 1:26:21.920 they are. These are socialists. They are socialists. They think 1:26:21.920 --> 1:26:25.360 that money is not really yours. Private property is not yours. 1:26:25.479 --> 1:26:29.320 Whatever you have as whatever the state dames to let 1:26:29.439 --> 1:26:33.080 you keep, whatever the state feels that you should have, 1:26:33.280 --> 1:26:39.679 that's what you have. All property is collectively owned, and 1:26:39.840 --> 1:26:42.800 therefore the state determines what you should and should not have. 1:26:42.960 --> 1:26:49.080 That this is a fundamentally inverse view of your relationship 1:26:49.120 --> 1:26:51.599 with the states. That's at the heart of all this 1:26:52.200 --> 1:26:55.839 collectivist rhetoric from the Okazia Cortez is the Deblasio's, the Sanders. 1:26:56.640 --> 1:26:58.559 They say it's just a little bit, just a little 1:26:58.600 --> 1:27:01.800 bit more to redistrut and spread around. But when you 1:27:01.880 --> 1:27:04.840 really push a little bit deeper into what they believe 1:27:04.880 --> 1:27:07.920 in what they say. They think that, you know, seventy 1:27:07.960 --> 1:27:11.479 percent tax rate, ninety percent tax rate, it's all fair game, 1:27:12.320 --> 1:27:15.280 that whatever the state decides to take from you is fine. 1:27:15.800 --> 1:27:17.680 I take the position that the state should be at 1:27:18.200 --> 1:27:21.920 being an absolute minimum and that we should have a 1:27:22.479 --> 1:27:25.599 flat tax, and that all this other stuff is just 1:27:25.840 --> 1:27:28.240 is just nonsense. But you know, we're nowhere near that 1:27:28.360 --> 1:27:32.080 right now. And unfortunately the Republicans are somewhat complicit in 1:27:32.120 --> 1:27:34.400 this because we're still spending too much money. We're still 1:27:34.439 --> 1:27:37.040 spending too much money. We're twenty two trillion dollars in 1:27:37.040 --> 1:27:39.559 the whole. No one wants to talk about this. What 1:27:39.600 --> 1:27:44.280 they do want to talk about is Okazio Cortez and 1:27:45.240 --> 1:27:48.200 the depth of her stupidity is some is a site 1:27:48.240 --> 1:27:53.120 to behold. It's it's remarkable. She, for example, over the 1:27:53.120 --> 1:27:55.640 weekend on a one of these ask me anything. I mean, 1:27:55.680 --> 1:27:57.800 she's like a social media politician. I mean, she's now 1:27:57.800 --> 1:28:03.320 a quick She's the Kardashian of left wing social justice politics. 1:28:03.320 --> 1:28:06.360 Just lots of photos, lots of Instagram, all this stuff. 1:28:07.160 --> 1:28:10.400 She said that the wall is immoral, like another wall 1:28:10.479 --> 1:28:13.479 play clip twenty here, John, No matter how you feel, 1:28:13.479 --> 1:28:17.360 about about the wall. You know, I think it's a 1:28:17.439 --> 1:28:22.680 moral abomination. I think it's like the Berlin Wall, a 1:28:22.880 --> 1:28:27.240 moral abomination. It's like the Berlin Wall. She should have 1:28:27.320 --> 1:28:30.599 to defend this statement any time that she goes out 1:28:30.600 --> 1:28:33.720 in public and the reporters there, any time that she's 1:28:33.760 --> 1:28:36.720 going to debate any Republican that a wall at our 1:28:36.720 --> 1:28:39.240 southern border is like the Berlin Wall. This is like 1:28:39.320 --> 1:28:42.839 saying that a wall at a prison is immoral because 1:28:42.920 --> 1:28:44.680 it keeps people in. And you say, well, hold on 1:28:44.720 --> 1:28:47.479 a second, isn't isn't the wall there it's supposed to 1:28:47.520 --> 1:28:52.479 protect us and doesn't have a legitimate purpose. You know, 1:28:52.680 --> 1:28:54.600 if I built if someone if the government built a 1:28:54.600 --> 1:28:56.559 wall around my house and wouldn't let me out, yeah 1:28:56.600 --> 1:28:59.360 that's immoral. But if somebody builds a wall around a 1:28:59.400 --> 1:29:01.679 prison so that let people out, well that's not immoral, 1:29:01.760 --> 1:29:06.840 that's just common sense. They're both walls, though, so I 1:29:06.840 --> 1:29:08.720 guess you can make the case that it's all immoral. Right, 1:29:08.760 --> 1:29:10.800 A wall as a wall, doesn't matter why it's there. 1:29:11.640 --> 1:29:15.800 These are inanimate objects that people are imbuing with their 1:29:15.840 --> 1:29:22.280 own politics and with their own political proclivities. But o'kazi Cortez. 1:29:22.439 --> 1:29:24.599 Is the wall or southern borders like the Berlin Wall, 1:29:24.880 --> 1:29:27.280 first of all, is a It's just a slap in 1:29:27.320 --> 1:29:30.080 the face to people that were trying to escape communism. 1:29:30.080 --> 1:29:33.759 And what that wall in Berlin really represented. It wasn't 1:29:33.760 --> 1:29:35.680 that we It wasn't the West didn't want people to 1:29:35.720 --> 1:29:37.639 commit us that the East didn't want to let people out. 1:29:38.840 --> 1:29:41.000 We have a very different problem here. We have a 1:29:41.000 --> 1:29:44.559 country that we're trying to prevent people from flooding, and 1:29:44.880 --> 1:29:47.920 they are open borders, folks. This is what the Democrats. 1:29:48.320 --> 1:29:51.559 They don't want to say it, even though they support it. 1:29:51.560 --> 1:29:54.680 They support open borders, now, no question about it. They 1:29:54.720 --> 1:29:57.439 just don't like the title. They don't like the wording 1:29:57.960 --> 1:29:59.720 because they know that it won't play well in the 1:29:59.720 --> 1:30:01.200 Heart and they know that it won't play well in 1:30:01.240 --> 1:30:05.720 Pennsylvania and Ohio and Michigan and Wisconsin and Andy, and 1:30:05.760 --> 1:30:09.520 they want power. So they're dishonest. The Democrats are fundamentally 1:30:09.560 --> 1:30:13.519 dishonest about their view of capitalism, as we see with Amazon, 1:30:13.800 --> 1:30:16.800 their view of boorders, pretty much their view of a 1:30:16.840 --> 1:30:23.080 whole lot of public policy these days. I saw not 1:30:23.240 --> 1:30:27.800 one but two movies team over the weekend, which I know, 1:30:28.000 --> 1:30:30.320 I know some of you are who you gotta catch 1:30:30.360 --> 1:30:32.160 your breath for a second, Buck, that's crazy, you're a 1:30:32.160 --> 1:30:35.320 wild man. Two movies over a long weekend. Not only 1:30:35.360 --> 1:30:38.400 did I see two movies, one of them, I will 1:30:38.439 --> 1:30:41.720 have you know, I saw in a theater like a 1:30:41.800 --> 1:30:45.479 normal American human, that's right. I went to the movies, 1:30:46.160 --> 1:30:51.160 actually the movies, and I saw Into the spider Verse, 1:30:51.160 --> 1:30:53.519 the new Spider Man movie. Miss Molly really wanted to 1:30:53.520 --> 1:30:55.280 see it. I said, all right, honey, we'll go see it. 1:30:55.640 --> 1:30:58.200 And a few things to say about this. First of all, 1:30:58.840 --> 1:31:01.200 I've seen so many these Spider Man movies. I do 1:31:01.280 --> 1:31:03.000 like comic books. So if you're somebody who doesn't like 1:31:03.040 --> 1:31:05.400 comic books and comic book stories, obviously you're never gonna 1:31:05.439 --> 1:31:08.400 like this stuff. But as somebody who thinks that generally 1:31:09.040 --> 1:31:13.080 comic book movies are comic book rather turned into movies 1:31:13.720 --> 1:31:17.160 are terrible, this was actually really creative and really well done. 1:31:17.920 --> 1:31:20.519 I'm not a big cartoon person. I didn't care. I 1:31:20.560 --> 1:31:23.840 thought it was very The visuals are very creative, the 1:31:23.960 --> 1:31:27.920 music was good, the storyline moved. I thought it was 1:31:27.920 --> 1:31:30.360 pretty excellent. And people said, oh, Buck, the director's left 1:31:30.360 --> 1:31:33.799 wing Guys, if if you're gonna not look at movies 1:31:33.840 --> 1:31:36.439 because the director's left wing, you're only you're gonna have 1:31:36.560 --> 1:31:39.200 one Clint Eastwood movie a decade to watch. Okay, You're 1:31:39.200 --> 1:31:42.320 not gonna have a lot of stuff to tide you over. 1:31:43.040 --> 1:31:45.639 So that's one part of it, I mean. And another 1:31:45.640 --> 1:31:48.080 thing is I saw the movie, and I didn't know this. 1:31:48.479 --> 1:31:51.280 We were able in stadium seating now in this New 1:31:51.360 --> 1:31:53.960 York theater, so you don't have to stare at somebody's head. 1:31:54.120 --> 1:31:55.639 You know, if somebody has a hat on or something, 1:31:55.680 --> 1:31:57.240 you can't see it. And I got a giant head, 1:31:57.280 --> 1:31:59.320 so I know, right this is a pot calling the 1:31:59.400 --> 1:32:02.200 kettle black. But I could see everything clearly. But also 1:32:02.240 --> 1:32:06.240 they allowed for you to reserve your seats. Now, when 1:32:06.240 --> 1:32:08.240 you go into check in, you actually pick your seats 1:32:08.240 --> 1:32:11.800 and you reserve your seats. It's a far more civilized experience. 1:32:12.439 --> 1:32:14.120 And I assume, and I didn't even know this, you 1:32:14.120 --> 1:32:17.640 could probably reserve your seats in advance. So I'm not 1:32:17.720 --> 1:32:20.439 saying that I'm sold on going to the movies anymore 1:32:20.479 --> 1:32:22.960 as an activity, but I'm saying that I no longer 1:32:23.080 --> 1:32:26.559 despise it with the fiery heat of a thousand sons. 1:32:27.600 --> 1:32:29.720 I'm open to the idea of going to movies when 1:32:29.760 --> 1:32:32.920 you can have stadium seating and you can pick your 1:32:32.960 --> 1:32:38.160 seats beforehand, makes it a more civilized experience. And as 1:32:38.160 --> 1:32:41.400 I said, the movie itself was good and I think 1:32:41.479 --> 1:32:43.320 it's good family fair, so if you wanted to go 1:32:43.360 --> 1:32:45.160 see it with your kids, a good movie to see. 1:32:46.120 --> 1:32:48.840 There is some really funny stuff. And the way that 1:32:49.080 --> 1:32:51.000 I read about how they did this, I was so 1:32:51.120 --> 1:32:54.320 curious afterwards. I think they use one frame instead of 1:32:54.360 --> 1:32:57.200 two frame per second for the cartoon and a lot 1:32:57.200 --> 1:33:00.479 of places to make it seem more like a comic 1:33:00.520 --> 1:33:02.559 book brought to life, and I think that that visually 1:33:02.560 --> 1:33:05.000 worked pretty well. The other movie I saw was Miss 1:33:05.080 --> 1:33:08.280 Molly and I on a rainy night in New York 1:33:08.320 --> 1:33:11.880 City decided we were going to watch something, and we 1:33:11.920 --> 1:33:15.680 watched this movie, The Witch. Not to be confused, there's 1:33:15.680 --> 1:33:17.840 a South Korean movie that came out pretty recently called 1:33:17.880 --> 1:33:20.800 The Witch, which isn't that. That's not this. This is 1:33:22.160 --> 1:33:25.400 more or less if the Salem Witch Trials had an 1:33:25.400 --> 1:33:29.760 origin story, and I will tell you it's it's a 1:33:29.800 --> 1:33:34.080 little bleak and a little relentless. There's no there's nothing 1:33:34.240 --> 1:33:38.200 uplifting or beautiful or sweet or kind or you know, 1:33:38.560 --> 1:33:43.040 so just know that it was. It was creepy. Man, 1:33:43.160 --> 1:33:46.880 it was well done and really disturbing for what it was. 1:33:48.240 --> 1:33:51.160 Do not watch this obviously, with the first ten minutes 1:33:51.720 --> 1:33:54.960 there's a scene that is going to haunt you, and 1:33:55.000 --> 1:33:57.080 I think it actually kind of crossed the line. I'll 1:33:57.120 --> 1:33:58.400 be honest with you. I think the scene was a 1:33:58.439 --> 1:34:02.919 little know some of the actors in it, they're British actors. 1:34:03.400 --> 1:34:07.360 One plays the wife of or not the wife the 1:34:07.880 --> 1:34:12.040 sister of Katlan Stark from Game of Thrones. She's the 1:34:12.800 --> 1:34:15.240 Queen of the Veil. Those of you who are Game 1:34:15.240 --> 1:34:18.080 of Thrones people, she's them the wife in this movie. 1:34:18.720 --> 1:34:20.800 I've seen the guy who plays the lead actor or 1:34:20.800 --> 1:34:22.559 a million times a different thing. I can't remember what 1:34:22.600 --> 1:34:24.040 he's in there, but I've seen him a bunch of things. 1:34:24.600 --> 1:34:29.040 But man, this this whole New England wilderness, which thing 1:34:29.400 --> 1:34:32.040 they really if you want to be I think it's 1:34:32.080 --> 1:34:36.240 super spooky because there's also a demonic and satanic possession 1:34:36.320 --> 1:34:39.320 component to it. So if you're like me and you 1:34:39.360 --> 1:34:42.559 think that the that the the Exorcist, it's a little 1:34:42.600 --> 1:34:45.040 bit of The Exorcist meets The Blair Witch Project. If 1:34:45.040 --> 1:34:47.960 you like scary stuff the which I think it's on 1:34:48.040 --> 1:34:49.439 demand now you can get a lot of a lot 1:34:49.439 --> 1:34:54.320 of different cable riders. Really, you know, I had nightmares. 1:34:54.520 --> 1:34:57.800 It's really scary. It'll it'll put you on edge if 1:34:57.800 --> 1:34:59.679 you're if you're somebody who likes that kind of stuff, 1:35:00.000 --> 1:35:02.559 if someone who wants to be happy and think that 1:35:02.640 --> 1:35:05.240 life is you know, life is good and fun. And 1:35:05.520 --> 1:35:07.320 I would say go to the Into the Spider Verse. 1:35:07.360 --> 1:35:11.280 But two movies, both of which were what you know, 1:35:11.320 --> 1:35:13.080 they gave you what you wanted. I mean, if you 1:35:13.120 --> 1:35:15.400 want to be freaked out the which definitely did the job, 1:35:15.800 --> 1:35:19.360 and if you wanted to have some fun and see 1:35:19.439 --> 1:35:21.880 some cool visuals and a pretty good take on the 1:35:21.920 --> 1:35:25.160 Spider Man stuff, then I think Into the Spider Verse 1:35:26.120 --> 1:35:28.960 was also very good. Now I have to see A 1:35:29.120 --> 1:35:32.080 Star is Born and maybe that Roma movie just so 1:35:32.160 --> 1:35:34.320 I can well the Stars. A Star is Born and 1:35:34.320 --> 1:35:35.880 is supposed to be pretty good. But the Roma movie, 1:35:36.320 --> 1:35:39.840 the critics love it, but nobody's seen it, so that'll 1:35:39.880 --> 1:35:41.360 be a good one to see. It's kind of like 1:35:41.400 --> 1:35:46.160 Beto O'Rourke in that the intelligentsia says it's amazing, but 1:35:46.560 --> 1:35:48.679 the rest of the world is like, who who cares? 1:35:49.160 --> 1:35:51.040 Hasn't want anything? No one, no one even wants to 1:35:51.040 --> 1:35:54.320 see it. But anyway, more coming up, teams, stay with me, 1:36:05.560 --> 1:36:13.760 seeing Bucking. It's time for roll call. All right, roll 1:36:13.840 --> 1:36:18.439 call Tom, everybody. I hope you're having a good President's Day. 1:36:18.880 --> 1:36:21.200 I find the whole President's Day holiday to be a 1:36:21.240 --> 1:36:23.320 little weird. He totally honest with you. I don't know 1:36:23.360 --> 1:36:27.439 why we have a holiday celebrating our presidents. It strikes 1:36:27.479 --> 1:36:31.240 me that this is not necessarily something that we should 1:36:31.280 --> 1:36:35.479 be nationally mandated to celebrate it. Look, we've had some 1:36:35.520 --> 1:36:39.439 good presidents, we've had some bad presidents. Nonetheless, people seem 1:36:39.520 --> 1:36:41.720 to like getting the day off, so nobody really cares 1:36:41.720 --> 1:36:43.960 about it. I hope you are having an excellent President's Day, 1:36:43.960 --> 1:36:46.640 and I am certainly happy for the long weekend. I 1:36:46.680 --> 1:36:48.920 was up in New York, had a lovely time up 1:36:48.920 --> 1:36:51.439 there on this Molly, and now I'm back in the 1:36:51.560 --> 1:36:54.840 swamp in DC so I can bring you all of 1:36:54.880 --> 1:37:00.439 the information from the front lines of liberal insanity. First 1:37:00.520 --> 1:37:03.400 up in roll Call, Facebook dot Com slashbuck sex that 1:37:03.479 --> 1:37:05.040 if you want to be a part of the roll 1:37:05.120 --> 1:37:10.679 call bonanza. Dale writes, Hey, Buck, you have proven once 1:37:10.680 --> 1:37:13.479 again that you are a smart guy. Right from the 1:37:13.520 --> 1:37:16.200 get go. You called the Jus Smollett incident for what 1:37:16.280 --> 1:37:19.960 it was. You courageously spoke up and addressed the obvious 1:37:19.960 --> 1:37:23.040 holes in the story while the other media entities rallied 1:37:23.080 --> 1:37:25.719 behind and then prompted mister Smollett up with his tail. 1:37:26.400 --> 1:37:29.719 And as with the Blasi Ford testimony, you face warnings 1:37:29.720 --> 1:37:32.800 and rebuke, but you had it right all along and 1:37:32.880 --> 1:37:35.280 weren't afraid to speak out on it. Thanks again for 1:37:35.360 --> 1:37:38.679 all you do to advance the conservative cause, and from 1:37:38.720 --> 1:37:42.200 team Buck, big time shields high well Dale, you know, 1:37:42.280 --> 1:37:45.559 thank you very much. Man. I appreciate when somebody like you, 1:37:45.640 --> 1:37:50.519 who's obviously a very valued and much appreciated listener to 1:37:50.560 --> 1:37:53.240 the show, gives me a little shout out for Yeah, 1:37:53.280 --> 1:37:55.840 I was not somebody that waited on the sidelines on 1:37:55.880 --> 1:37:58.680 this one. I was not somebody who was afraid of 1:37:58.720 --> 1:38:02.040 the possible backlash. I came out early and often, and 1:38:02.120 --> 1:38:03.880 you just go back and listen to the show saying, ah, 1:38:03.920 --> 1:38:07.679 this story doesn't make sense. This story doesn't make sense. Now, 1:38:08.280 --> 1:38:10.400 I didn't want to go so far as to say 1:38:10.439 --> 1:38:14.599 outright that he was entirely lying or a fabricator right 1:38:14.600 --> 1:38:17.559 from the get go, because now we see that maybe 1:38:17.560 --> 1:38:19.280 there was some kind of an attack, but it was 1:38:19.400 --> 1:38:22.479 orchestrated by him, right. I couldn't say that it was 1:38:22.680 --> 1:38:25.280 entirely made up or what aspects of or made up. 1:38:25.320 --> 1:38:27.080 I just knew it wasn't what he said it was 1:38:27.760 --> 1:38:31.960 very obviously and was consistent on that and did the 1:38:32.880 --> 1:38:34.479 how many times did we talk about it on this 1:38:34.520 --> 1:38:36.600 show in the last couple of weeks? I said, all right, 1:38:36.640 --> 1:38:39.040 we're gonna Jessie small Att update. You know, I just said, 1:38:39.479 --> 1:38:43.240 we knew where this was going. Seth right, digging Ben 1:38:43.400 --> 1:38:46.080 Weinarten as a guest host, Well, Seth, you were not 1:38:46.160 --> 1:38:48.479 alone there. I know. I know my man Ben did 1:38:48.560 --> 1:38:51.400 a great job, as he always does. And we go 1:38:51.520 --> 1:38:54.720 way back. Ben and I where colleagues and buddies back 1:38:54.760 --> 1:38:58.400 at the Blaze many years ago. And I'm very pleased 1:38:58.439 --> 1:38:59.840 that he's willing to take the reins when I have 1:38:59.920 --> 1:39:03.479 to be out and do a fantastic job guest hosting 1:39:03.680 --> 1:39:07.479 the show. Oh, speaking of, well that's not guest hosting, 1:39:07.600 --> 1:39:11.200 but appearing as a guest I will be on Shannon 1:39:11.320 --> 1:39:13.320 Bream's show for those of you who are hearing this 1:39:13.479 --> 1:39:17.639 tonight around eleven pm Eastern on Fox News. I'm guessing 1:39:18.439 --> 1:39:23.000 talking about Jesse Smollett because some folks know, I, even 1:39:23.040 --> 1:39:27.439 among conservatives, have been saying very loudly and for quite 1:39:27.520 --> 1:39:30.640 some time that this whole thing is BS. So I 1:39:30.680 --> 1:39:32.559 will probably get a chance to talk about that tonight. 1:39:33.400 --> 1:39:36.160 Andy Right, buck Love the show. It's not a coincidence 1:39:36.200 --> 1:39:40.439 at the Center pass to bill introduced by centers Kamela Harris, 1:39:40.560 --> 1:39:44.720 Corey Booker and Tim Scott making lynching punishable as a 1:39:44.840 --> 1:39:49.200 hate crime. This needs to be investigated. It connects the 1:39:49.280 --> 1:39:52.320 deep state, the DNC, the MSM, and Hollywood all working together. 1:39:53.000 --> 1:39:55.160 If we get to the bottom of this, we'll expose 1:39:55.200 --> 1:39:57.680 the swamp and open a lot of eyes. Andy, I 1:39:57.720 --> 1:39:59.760 don't know what you're talking about, man, I'm gonna have 1:39:59.800 --> 1:40:04.160 to Lynching is already obviously a heynous crime, So I 1:40:04.240 --> 1:40:08.400 don't understand what you are what you're going for here, 1:40:08.560 --> 1:40:13.360 but I'll look into it. Taylor writes Buck All, my favorite, 1:40:13.760 --> 1:40:17.679 my all time favorite country artist is Chris Leedieux. Close 1:40:17.720 --> 1:40:22.240 second is the tie between George Strait and Garth Brooks Taylor. 1:40:22.439 --> 1:40:24.439 Thank you so much. I will add that to my 1:40:24.840 --> 1:40:28.320 Spotify country playlist, which I now am going to be 1:40:28.400 --> 1:40:31.000 playing in the background during some of my cooking sessions 1:40:31.120 --> 1:40:35.120 at home. Patrick writes roll Call, asking for a friend. 1:40:35.760 --> 1:40:39.040 If those who claim the US is attempting to support 1:40:39.080 --> 1:40:42.639 a coup in Venezuela by supporting the duly elected president 1:40:42.680 --> 1:40:46.120 will also deny that. McKay, the FBI, Rodenstein, and the DOJ, 1:40:46.800 --> 1:40:50.879 We're not attempting a coup against our country's president. Shields. 1:40:51.000 --> 1:40:54.519 I I'm a dog trainer, and you are one hundred 1:40:54.520 --> 1:40:57.360 percent correct about Dalmatians. Patrick says, well, thank you, Patrick. 1:40:57.439 --> 1:41:02.400 I like being correct, especially being one hundred percent correct, 1:41:02.520 --> 1:41:08.720 so appreciate that. And as for your comments about the coup, Yeah, 1:41:08.800 --> 1:41:10.360 I think it's interesting that a lot of a lot 1:41:10.400 --> 1:41:12.960 of people who are worried about the US being involved 1:41:13.000 --> 1:41:16.040 in a coup in Venezuela think that the term coup 1:41:16.240 --> 1:41:20.120 for what happened with McCabe and some of these senior 1:41:20.560 --> 1:41:25.360 DOJ and FBI officials is just completely unthinkable. Meanwhile, I 1:41:25.479 --> 1:41:28.200 think it's completely applicable. I don't think it's unthinkable at all. 1:41:28.240 --> 1:41:29.760 I think that they were trying to find a way 1:41:30.360 --> 1:41:35.519 to put a thin legal veneer atop what was the 1:41:35.680 --> 1:41:39.519 removal of a duly elected president, mostly because of what 1:41:39.720 --> 1:41:41.960 had already happened. I think at the FBIOND the DOJ, 1:41:42.760 --> 1:41:44.840 they knew that if we ever got the answers, if 1:41:44.880 --> 1:41:48.600 we ever found out what they had done during the campaigns, 1:41:48.680 --> 1:41:51.559 during the general election, there would have been held to pay. 1:41:51.640 --> 1:41:54.599 So they had to keep doubling down and going further 1:41:55.160 --> 1:41:59.960 with their rogue investigations in order to justify the previous 1:42:00.800 --> 1:42:07.160 rogue investigations and politicization and all the grotesquely unfair behavior 1:42:07.240 --> 1:42:09.639 we saw from McCabe and Combe and all the rest. 1:42:11.280 --> 1:42:13.960 Richard writes, I have a theory about New York and California. 1:42:14.479 --> 1:42:17.600 The Democrats are purposely destroying those states to force the 1:42:17.720 --> 1:42:21.439 residents to flee to the prosperous red states. Their national 1:42:21.520 --> 1:42:24.720 base is concentrated in blue state enclaves, and they recognize 1:42:24.760 --> 1:42:27.400 that they'll be doomed as a national party unless they 1:42:27.439 --> 1:42:30.400 can spread out the stupid people across more states. If 1:42:30.439 --> 1:42:32.240 you talk to people in Texas, many will tell you 1:42:32.320 --> 1:42:35.400 the reason Ted Cruz had a hard time against O'Rourke 1:42:35.880 --> 1:42:38.720 is because of all the Democrats moving there from California. 1:42:39.000 --> 1:42:41.439 We know, Richard, I am familiar with this phenomenon of 1:42:41.520 --> 1:42:46.519 people leaving states like New York and California, and then, 1:42:46.680 --> 1:42:51.360 even though they often leave four reasons of Democrat mismanagement, 1:42:51.520 --> 1:42:57.280 incredibly high taxes, bad economic policy, overregulation, all these things, 1:42:58.000 --> 1:43:00.439 when they get to their new state of residents, whether 1:43:00.479 --> 1:43:04.800 it's Florida or Texas or Nevada, they are happy to 1:43:04.920 --> 1:43:08.240 have the lower tax burden but want some of the 1:43:08.360 --> 1:43:13.960 same liberal economic and redistributive policies that they had fled previously. 1:43:14.720 --> 1:43:17.080 So I guess this just goes in. The Libs won't 1:43:17.200 --> 1:43:20.400 learn their lesson category, but this is something that we 1:43:20.479 --> 1:43:22.599 have to keep an eye on it. It is definitely 1:43:23.360 --> 1:43:27.280 something that occurs. And I just wish that the Libs 1:43:27.320 --> 1:43:32.759 out there would stop constantly trying to impose their failed 1:43:32.880 --> 1:43:35.080 policies and failed ideas and all the rest of us. 1:43:35.160 --> 1:43:40.200 But they won't. They do not learn their lessons. Michael, 1:43:40.360 --> 1:43:43.400 All right, So let's say the cops believe Smallett and 1:43:43.600 --> 1:43:45.880 found two guys in the area that fit the description. 1:43:46.680 --> 1:43:48.960 Would Smallett have let them go to prison for a 1:43:49.120 --> 1:43:51.880 hate crime? I bet he would have, because you know, 1:43:52.000 --> 1:43:55.040 Trump supporters deserve it anyway, even if they didn't actually 1:43:55.080 --> 1:43:57.880 do anything, he should face the same sentence that they 1:43:57.920 --> 1:43:59.680 would have. Now, Michael, I think that you raise a 1:43:59.720 --> 1:44:03.920 couple of interesting points here. One is that I do 1:44:04.040 --> 1:44:06.920 believe that when people are willing to make fake allegations, 1:44:07.600 --> 1:44:09.200 it's not much of a leap to think that they'd 1:44:09.200 --> 1:44:11.040 be willing to let an innocent person go to prison 1:44:11.120 --> 1:44:16.400 for those allegations, especially if an innocent person going away 1:44:16.479 --> 1:44:21.280 would prevent the fabricator of the allegation from having to 1:44:21.360 --> 1:44:25.280 face justice himself or herself. So I can't say that's 1:44:25.320 --> 1:44:27.880 happening in this instance or that did happen, but it 1:44:28.040 --> 1:44:29.840 does not to me seem to be much of a 1:44:29.920 --> 1:44:32.080 leap to suggest that it could very well happen. Now. 1:44:32.960 --> 1:44:35.880 Next on the list, here is the punishment for being 1:44:35.960 --> 1:44:38.960 a fabricator of a hate crime. I've always said that 1:44:39.080 --> 1:44:43.960 people who are willing to ruin someone else's life with 1:44:44.120 --> 1:44:50.160 what is demonstrably in bad faith allege, Right, So this 1:44:50.280 --> 1:44:52.840 is where you're you're gonna run into interference on this one, 1:44:52.920 --> 1:44:55.040 or where people are going to disagree. They're gonna say, well, 1:44:55.080 --> 1:44:58.120 if you punish people for let's say, making a false 1:44:58.240 --> 1:45:01.160 rape allegation, then people who have in rape will be 1:45:01.200 --> 1:45:02.920 afraid to come forward. And what I say to this is, 1:45:03.360 --> 1:45:09.800 you're not punishing people because a rape allegation cannot be proven. Obviously, 1:45:09.920 --> 1:45:12.320 that would be unjust, unfair, that would not be right. 1:45:12.800 --> 1:45:15.920 What you are saying is that for a false rape 1:45:15.960 --> 1:45:20.519 allegation that can be proven beyond a reasonable doubt to 1:45:20.680 --> 1:45:24.679 have been false and maliciously leveled, then yes, you obviously 1:45:24.800 --> 1:45:27.760 should have consequences for that, and I think the consequences 1:45:27.800 --> 1:45:31.479 should be severe. I think the consequences for somebody that 1:45:31.600 --> 1:45:34.759 is alleging a felony that could ruin someone's life should 1:45:34.800 --> 1:45:38.519 be felonious and severe. In return, the same thing about 1:45:38.600 --> 1:45:43.360 a hate crime. If you try to destroy somebody's life 1:45:43.439 --> 1:45:45.800 by lying about their involvement in a hate crime or 1:45:45.880 --> 1:45:49.519 lying about their committing a hate crime, you should face 1:45:49.640 --> 1:45:52.320 a severe penalty, not just a false statement. Okay, they 1:45:52.360 --> 1:45:55.720 shouldn't just be walking into the police and saying, you know, 1:45:55.800 --> 1:45:58.120 I lost my iPhone, I want to collect the insurance 1:45:58.160 --> 1:46:00.800 on it when you didn't. When you're just trying to 1:46:00.920 --> 1:46:03.760 engage in an insurance fraud, right, which that part of 1:46:03.800 --> 1:46:06.479 it's probably very illegal, but the lying to the cops 1:46:06.520 --> 1:46:09.320 would be a misdemeanor. I think if you lie about 1:46:09.400 --> 1:46:13.840 someone else's conduct to implicate them in felony behavior, and 1:46:13.960 --> 1:46:17.320 it can be proven beyond a reasonable doubt that you've 1:46:17.360 --> 1:46:22.640 done so, then you should face felony consequences. And I 1:46:22.760 --> 1:46:28.000 don't really see a serious counter argument to this. You're 1:46:28.000 --> 1:46:30.720 gonna remember, we've had all these libs telling this now 1:46:30.840 --> 1:46:35.560 for two years, that process crimes are real crimes, that 1:46:35.760 --> 1:46:39.360 lying under oath to the FBI or lying to Congress 1:46:39.439 --> 1:46:43.559 even on about non criminal behavior is very serious, should 1:46:43.560 --> 1:46:46.679 be taken very seriously. Well, lying about somebody else committing 1:46:46.720 --> 1:46:48.720 a rape, or committing a hate crime, or any number 1:46:48.760 --> 1:46:53.439 of different things that are felonies that should be treated 1:46:53.560 --> 1:46:57.720 as an incredibly serious offense as well. And I do 1:46:57.880 --> 1:47:02.200 not believe that those who are taking the other side 1:47:02.240 --> 1:47:05.479 of this argument interacting in particularly good faith, because I 1:47:05.520 --> 1:47:07.640 think that the argument is quite clear. I think that 1:47:08.240 --> 1:47:11.200 this should be it should be punished severely when you 1:47:11.280 --> 1:47:14.559 were lying about somebody else's conduct to get them severely punished, 1:47:14.600 --> 1:47:17.960 whatever the issue, whatever the crime may be. All right, 1:47:18.000 --> 1:47:20.040 seeing that's going to be it for this edition of 1:47:20.080 --> 1:47:22.680 the Buck Sexton Show. Be with you every day for 1:47:22.720 --> 1:47:24.479 the rest of the week, looking forward to it. Talk 1:47:24.520 --> 1:47:29.840 to you then, Shields Tie.

But 1:47:32.560 --> 1:47:35.360 did you know that the AARP is all about left 1:47:35.400 --> 1:47:40.120 wing politics. They often lobby for progressive causes, and they 1:47:40.240 --> 1:47:42.960 fought tooth and nail for government run healthcare.
