We 35 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 1: only ask that you honor our sovereignty in return. That's right, folks, 36 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:33,160 Speaker 1: Welcome to the buck Sexton Show. President Trump at the 37 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 1: U n and just saying, look, we we believe in 38 00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:40,360 Speaker 1: our own sovereignty. We believe that this nation we the 39 00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:43,080 Speaker 1: American people, believe that this nation is first and foremost 40 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:48,320 Speaker 1: four Americans, and it is our primary concern. Our own polity, 41 00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 1: our own political family, matters more than any consortium of 42 00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:58,320 Speaker 1: leaders and bureaucrats around the world. Sorry, United Nations, by 43 00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 1: whether you went should be in like some in the 44 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:02,760 Speaker 1: Pacific somewhere, you know, let them all just to send 45 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:05,480 Speaker 1: there instead of blocking traffic in New York City, in 46 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:07,880 Speaker 1: my hometown, we just don't need it in the right 47 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:10,240 Speaker 1: Brandon blocks the traffic. It's not cool. We don't we 48 00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:13,080 Speaker 1: don't need that. But you know, it was interesting to 49 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:21,040 Speaker 1: see the way that some of the assembled presidents and 50 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:24,480 Speaker 1: prime ministers and despots and all the rest of the 51 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:29,480 Speaker 1: the the assorted big players on the world stage responded. 52 00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:31,320 Speaker 1: I mean, I mean, here, here's a clip that got 53 00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:33,359 Speaker 1: a lot of attention today when the remember the U 54 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:35,960 Speaker 1: n you and general assemblies happened this week, so you know, 55 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:38,960 Speaker 1: all the different member nations show up and lots of meetings, 56 00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 1: great chance for journalists to speak to the Prime minister 57 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 1: of you know, Derka, Derkistan. And here is what Trump 58 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:51,520 Speaker 1: said at one point, and they laughed. But I have 59 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:53,040 Speaker 1: a feeling that you my friends and the rest of 60 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 1: the American people who actually care about this country, not 61 00:03:55,840 --> 00:04:00,160 Speaker 1: laughing play thirty best than two years, my administration has 62 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 1: accomplished more than almost any administration in the history of 63 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:17,040 Speaker 1: our country. America's so true. I didn't expect that reaction, 64 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:28,880 Speaker 1: But that's okay. America's economy is booming like never before. 65 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 1: Since my election. We've added ten trillion dollars in wealth. 66 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 1: The stock market is at an all time high in history, 67 00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 1: and jobless claims are at a fifty year low. President 68 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:49,200 Speaker 1: Trump in in his sweet spot there he he says 69 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:53,080 Speaker 1: something that is he's right in line with his thinking, 70 00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 1: which is that he is administration's accomplished a lot. I 71 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:57,280 Speaker 1: would note that a lot of what he has accomplished 72 00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:02,280 Speaker 1: is undoing the add decision making of the previous administration 73 00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:07,679 Speaker 1: on Iran, on regulations, on the economy, on taxes. That's progress, folks. 74 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:13,640 Speaker 1: Undoing obama Ism is progress, and liberals and the left 75 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:18,000 Speaker 1: hate him for it, but it is definitely a good thing, 76 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 1: something to be celebrated. Now, you'll note that the rest 77 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 1: of the world, maybe a lot of these foreign countries, who, 78 00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:24,719 Speaker 1: by the way, look at the United States with no 79 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 1: shortage of envy and feel quite a bit, you know, 80 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:30,200 Speaker 1: depending on the country, feel quite a bit. You know, 81 00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:33,320 Speaker 1: why are they so successful, prosperous, free and happy? And 82 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:36,960 Speaker 1: you know our country, our country stinks. That's right. There 83 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 1: are crappy countries in the world. The president will actually 84 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:42,040 Speaker 1: say it sometimes it's true. That doesn't mean the people 85 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:45,239 Speaker 1: from that country are crappy, but there are crappy governments. 86 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:49,159 Speaker 1: What is North Korea not a crappy country? Is that 87 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:51,640 Speaker 1: the game we play? Now? No, there's a whole you know. 88 00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:53,400 Speaker 1: You you start at the very top, there's you know, 89 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:57,760 Speaker 1: America and Western European countries, in Japan and Australia and 90 00:05:57,760 --> 00:05:59,760 Speaker 1: you know countries, but things are great, and then you 91 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:02,200 Speaker 1: work your way all the way down. You end up 92 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:04,760 Speaker 1: in the crappy countries and they get to show up 93 00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:06,159 Speaker 1: at the u N too, and you know, they have 94 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:08,600 Speaker 1: their reasons and rationalizations for why they're not doing as 95 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 1: well as other countries. But when the presidents referring to 96 00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 1: accomplishing a lot, he doesn't mean the Paris Climate Treaty, 97 00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:17,920 Speaker 1: which was nonsense. He doesn't mean the kind of things 98 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 1: that are gonna get him a standing ovation at the 99 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:22,200 Speaker 1: u N. He doesn't mean getting a Nobel Peace Prize 100 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:26,320 Speaker 1: just for being Trump. Oh you remember that with Obama. 101 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 1: Thank you for being Obama. It's amazing. Here's your Nobel 102 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 1: Peace Prize. Even Obama was embarrassed I think by that 103 00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:34,919 Speaker 1: a little bit, not totally, but a little bit because 104 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:40,160 Speaker 1: it was embarrassing. They should have been embarrassed. Joke. But 105 00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 1: the president speaking about all that's been accomplished for the 106 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 1: American people in this country where he is actually president. 107 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:52,320 Speaker 1: You always got the sense that Obama aspired to be 108 00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 1: president of the world. Trump just wants to be president 109 00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:59,240 Speaker 1: of America for eight years, do his best, and then 110 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 1: go back to doing whatever the heck he wants, playing 111 00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:04,600 Speaker 1: a lot of golf, do whatever he feels like. That's 112 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:08,160 Speaker 1: that's Trump's gool. And remaking American politics in the process 113 00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 1: and reshaping the political landscape in ways that has taken 114 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:16,080 Speaker 1: a wrecking ball to the establishment in many ways, not 115 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:17,679 Speaker 1: as much as I would like, but in many ways 116 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:21,640 Speaker 1: um and has finally put us on an even footing 117 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 1: when it comes to the fights with the propagandistic left 118 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:29,800 Speaker 1: wing media. Trump had some other good stuff to say 119 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:35,760 Speaker 1: as well. We withdrew from the Human Rights Council and 120 00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:42,080 Speaker 1: we will not return until real reform is enacted. For 121 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:46,000 Speaker 1: similar reasons, the United States will provide no support and 122 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:51,280 Speaker 1: recognition to the International Criminal Court as far as America 123 00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:56,640 Speaker 1: is concerned. The i c C has no jurisdiction, no legitimacy, 124 00:07:56,800 --> 00:08:01,920 Speaker 1: and no authority. The i c C claims near universal 125 00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 1: jurisdiction over the citizens of every country, violating all principles 126 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:12,680 Speaker 1: of justice, fairness, and due process. We will never surrender 127 00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:21,200 Speaker 1: America's sovereignty to an unelected, unaccountable global bureaucracy. America is 128 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 1: governed by Americans. We reject the ideology of globalism, and 129 00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:36,960 Speaker 1: we embraced the doctrine of patriotism. America is governed by Americans. 130 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:42,680 Speaker 1: We embrace patriotism. Those are things that you would assume 131 00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 1: any president saying them, all Americans would unite behind. But 132 00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:48,040 Speaker 1: of course for Trump to say that at the United Nations, 133 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:51,960 Speaker 1: the left and the so called intelligentsia and the international 134 00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:57,120 Speaker 1: international community bureaucrats, they feel like that's a slap in 135 00:08:57,160 --> 00:09:01,959 Speaker 1: the face. There is this mentality, this ideology of a 136 00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:06,840 Speaker 1: one world government. People call it cosmopolitanism sometimes, and it 137 00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:14,560 Speaker 1: has become commonplace among progressives, especially the international relations scholar 138 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:16,720 Speaker 1: set right. The people that are work at the State 139 00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:21,280 Speaker 1: Department are working international media outlets, places like CNN and 140 00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:24,480 Speaker 1: an NBC that have a more global footprint, and you know, 141 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:26,960 Speaker 1: they really think of them as more citizens of the world. 142 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:30,280 Speaker 1: We're citizens of the world. No, no, that's not true. 143 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:32,640 Speaker 1: We're not citizens of the world. We are citizens of 144 00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 1: this country. I care about what's going on in this country. 145 00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:38,000 Speaker 1: I mean as a human being. Obviously you care about 146 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:40,800 Speaker 1: progress and suffering and all those things the rest of 147 00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:43,160 Speaker 1: the world. But you can only worry about the politics 148 00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:47,360 Speaker 1: going on here first and foremost. Everything else is a distant, 149 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:53,080 Speaker 1: distant second. This is almost revolutionary thinking to come from 150 00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:56,440 Speaker 1: a president. It feels like right now, but that's really 151 00:09:56,480 --> 00:10:00,120 Speaker 1: just a commentary on what was going on with the 152 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:04,760 Speaker 1: previous presidency. It should in no way feel revolutionary to us, 153 00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:08,520 Speaker 1: but it does. Why is that? Oh, that's right, because 154 00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:11,400 Speaker 1: we've been through eight years of Obama, who went to 155 00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:14,760 Speaker 1: the United Nations and said things like the future will 156 00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:18,400 Speaker 1: not belong to those who slander the prophet of Islam. 157 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:22,319 Speaker 1: One of the most bizarre and unsettling things a commander 158 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:24,240 Speaker 1: in chief of this country has ever said. First of all, 159 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:27,320 Speaker 1: he's not a theologian. He shouldn't be picking sides about 160 00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 1: any religion or any religious dispute. It was. It was 161 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:37,000 Speaker 1: just outrageous. But they all clapped. They all clapped because Obama, 162 00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:39,520 Speaker 1: you know, they have to clap for him. I think 163 00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:42,360 Speaker 1: the President has done a very good job so far 164 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:47,080 Speaker 1: at the United Nations by being who he is and 165 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 1: speaking his mind. And maybe, and this is my hope 166 00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:52,839 Speaker 1: for other countries. You see, I want good things to 167 00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:56,120 Speaker 1: happen for all people. As a conservative, the the basic 168 00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:59,520 Speaker 1: entity that we are concerned with our individual human beings, 169 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:02,520 Speaker 1: their rights, their dignity. I want all human beings to 170 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:07,000 Speaker 1: live in freedom and prosperity and have uh you know, 171 00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:10,880 Speaker 1: rule of law, and I want everybody to have life, 172 00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:13,720 Speaker 1: liberty and the pursuit of happiness. I can't ensure it 173 00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:15,240 Speaker 1: for everybody, though, I can only work here in short, 174 00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 1: in this country. But what we can do as Americans 175 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:24,800 Speaker 1: is promote through our own country such a and obviously 176 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:29,960 Speaker 1: beneficial and and positive model for the rest of the 177 00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:33,040 Speaker 1: world to follow on their own accord. Because that's the 178 00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:37,120 Speaker 1: only way it will really work. That we have an effect, 179 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:38,679 Speaker 1: and we already are having this effect all the time. 180 00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:39,839 Speaker 1: I mean, I wanted to write a book and I 181 00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 1: actually talked to a publisher about it a year or 182 00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:45,480 Speaker 1: two ago, and uh, they they, I'll be totally frankly, 183 00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:47,640 Speaker 1: they bailed on the idea, which was amazing to me 184 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:49,719 Speaker 1: because it would have been a great book. But then 185 00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:52,040 Speaker 1: I got caught up in other things. But it's really 186 00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:54,599 Speaker 1: just on how awesome is how awesome America is for 187 00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:58,040 Speaker 1: the rest of the world. And after all the bowing 188 00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:00,400 Speaker 1: to foreign leaders and the criticizing of a America and 189 00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:02,719 Speaker 1: the confronting the you know, the bad parts of our 190 00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:04,880 Speaker 1: history that we had for eight years, to have a 191 00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:07,120 Speaker 1: president who's like, you know, the world really benefits from 192 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:10,959 Speaker 1: us in so many ways that sure we want to 193 00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:13,560 Speaker 1: hear their opinion. Sure we have allies and great countries 194 00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:18,080 Speaker 1: that are really like like family members to us when 195 00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:20,080 Speaker 1: it comes to the nations of the world, right, I mean, 196 00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:26,440 Speaker 1: there are countries that feel like family. But America's our first, 197 00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 1: is our first and greatest concern. And a president who 198 00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:33,000 Speaker 1: is willing to come forward and say that not only 199 00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:37,960 Speaker 1: is America the priority for the people living here, but 200 00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:41,280 Speaker 1: also the rest of the world wouldn't be It wouldn't 201 00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:43,800 Speaker 1: be too much to ask for a hey, you guys 202 00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:46,440 Speaker 1: are pretty great once in a while, instead of complaining 203 00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:49,040 Speaker 1: about our foreign policy and complaining about you know, our 204 00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:54,600 Speaker 1: our either cultural appropriation or cultural imperialism, and I think 205 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:57,760 Speaker 1: American American and cultural cultural imperialism most parts of the 206 00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:00,720 Speaker 1: good thing. The more of our stuff that other countries 207 00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:04,319 Speaker 1: can can take, the better, especially in terms of the 208 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:07,200 Speaker 1: way we approach rule of law and um which is 209 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:09,400 Speaker 1: why this debate over Cavana, which by the way, we're 210 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:11,360 Speaker 1: going to dive deep into that today. The latest on it, 211 00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:13,280 Speaker 1: I mean, the whole thing is a con it's a smear. 212 00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:16,560 Speaker 1: These people are lying or they're delusional, and I've been 213 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:18,800 Speaker 1: saying this all along, and it's it's more clear than ever. 214 00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:20,680 Speaker 1: But I'll get into those details. Don't think we're not 215 00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:23,240 Speaker 1: gonna spend time on that today. We certainly will. But 216 00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:25,000 Speaker 1: I wanted to give a moment to the president today 217 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:28,600 Speaker 1: at the United Nations UM and and also note that 218 00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:33,120 Speaker 1: this is a presidency that does not have a an 219 00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:37,760 Speaker 1: almost unhealthy focus on foreign policy and foreign conflicts. The president, 220 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,880 Speaker 1: who you'll notice is not getting us entangled in in 221 00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 1: wars that we don't have to be in, is not 222 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:47,720 Speaker 1: constantly meddling in the foreign affairs of other countries in 223 00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:53,280 Speaker 1: ways that don't affect us interests directly. And we're really 224 00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:58,199 Speaker 1: having conversations about about America first, if you will, as 225 00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:01,560 Speaker 1: a country, and that's that's a good thing. You know. 226 00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 1: I don't really need to sit here and get into 227 00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:09,559 Speaker 1: fierce debates with people about whether we're training the free 228 00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 1: Syrian Army properly in Syria or not, as we did 229 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:14,880 Speaker 1: on the obamaministration. The answer was no, we were not. 230 00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:17,760 Speaker 1: But you know, there are other things for us to 231 00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:21,120 Speaker 1: be focused on, and Trump is doing that and he's 232 00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:25,000 Speaker 1: you know, they laugh, they laugh when he says he's 233 00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:27,200 Speaker 1: doing great things. And the great thing about Trump is 234 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:30,280 Speaker 1: he laughs right back. He's like, yeah, you guys, remember 235 00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:33,360 Speaker 1: when Obama made fun of me at that comedy dinner 236 00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 1: and then I came back, took his job, and uh, 237 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:40,600 Speaker 1: basically pulled apart his legacy. Right. I don't think the 238 00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:43,600 Speaker 1: UN members should just be, you know, yucking it up 239 00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:47,360 Speaker 1: at Trump's expense. Not that he's gonna do anything bad 240 00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:50,440 Speaker 1: to them, but I think that some of them who 241 00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 1: who are laughing not with him but at him, they 242 00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:54,800 Speaker 1: will they will have to look back on this and say, wow, 243 00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:58,240 Speaker 1: we really underestimated this commander in chief, this leader of 244 00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:06,080 Speaker 1: the free world. That's what I thing's gonna happen. We 245 00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:16,560 Speaker 1: believe survivors. Let my wife's throw We believe survivor. He's 246 00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:35,840 Speaker 1: forgotten Ted Cruise and Frid Cabins having off for caving 247 00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 1: off for women's rights, for right of every marginalized community kids. 248 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:45,760 Speaker 1: Tell Carna very in a minute, that was at a 249 00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:49,120 Speaker 1: restaurant here in TC, blocks from where I'm currently doing 250 00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:52,520 Speaker 1: this show, where Ted Cruz was trying to have dinner 251 00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:56,840 Speaker 1: with his wife like a normal person trying to have 252 00:15:56,920 --> 00:16:00,680 Speaker 1: dinner with his wife, and this group smashed racism d 253 00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:05,520 Speaker 1: C tracks him down, mobs him in the restaurant, gets 254 00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:09,480 Speaker 1: up in his face, and causes a confrontation. My friends, 255 00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:11,840 Speaker 1: one day this is going to turn into violence. And 256 00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:13,760 Speaker 1: I can tell you this, if any of these punks 257 00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:15,480 Speaker 1: ever showed up around me or some of the people 258 00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:17,720 Speaker 1: that I know in this business and we were with 259 00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:20,440 Speaker 1: a significant other they started yelling in my face, I 260 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:23,560 Speaker 1: would take that as a threat, and if I feel threatened, 261 00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:25,960 Speaker 1: I would respond, and all of a sudden this would 262 00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:29,280 Speaker 1: get out of control very quickly. What they did to 263 00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:32,440 Speaker 1: the center is a disgrace. But these people are disgusting. 264 00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:35,280 Speaker 1: And what you see is that liberalism now really is 265 00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:41,640 Speaker 1: very close to leftists. True progressive believers have something on 266 00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:43,600 Speaker 1: the on the line of of a mental health issue, 267 00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:48,640 Speaker 1: I mean, a real disorder, and they view progressive ideology 268 00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:52,280 Speaker 1: as some kind of outlet for their rage because it's 269 00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:57,240 Speaker 1: just not normal. Normal, healthy, socialized people do not show 270 00:16:57,280 --> 00:17:00,600 Speaker 1: up at restaurants and scream it's strangers for no reason, okay, 271 00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:02,880 Speaker 1: and there's no reason to scream at Ted Cruise. They 272 00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:04,840 Speaker 1: have nothing, and they said, really, we didn't play all 273 00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:06,560 Speaker 1: it because it's no need to. But they said really 274 00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:09,600 Speaker 1: nasty stuff they comment on his appearance, and it reminds 275 00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:11,280 Speaker 1: me the CNN audience. I used to go on CNN, 276 00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:13,320 Speaker 1: and a lot of people watching CNN are you know, nice, 277 00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:15,480 Speaker 1: normal people. They don't realize how bias CN is because 278 00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:18,120 Speaker 1: they don't pay that much attention. But there's a good 279 00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:21,760 Speaker 1: core of CNN watchers who are just a bunch of savages, 280 00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:25,159 Speaker 1: a bunch of left wing you know, if they're dudes, 281 00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:30,680 Speaker 1: they're beta male, basement dwelling maniacs. And there's a lot 282 00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:32,280 Speaker 1: of that out there. And the people that did this 283 00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:35,359 Speaker 1: the Ted cruise. It just makes me so angry. This 284 00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:37,840 Speaker 1: does not happen both ways. This is not a two 285 00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:43,000 Speaker 1: way street, whether it's Antifa or these uh, these leftist 286 00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:46,000 Speaker 1: smash racism. I mean they're chasing a Latino out of 287 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:49,520 Speaker 1: a restaurant with his wife to smash racism. That's the 288 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:52,280 Speaker 1: group is called smash racism. I mean they probably should 289 00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:54,400 Speaker 1: be called you know, smash i q s because they're 290 00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:59,600 Speaker 1: all morons. But this is what they do. And you'll notice, 291 00:17:59,840 --> 00:18:01,720 Speaker 1: do think they're gonna cover this much on on the 292 00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:06,280 Speaker 1: on CNN, these other networks, on MSNBC. No, No, they're 293 00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:08,520 Speaker 1: not gonna spend any time on this. They should be 294 00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:10,480 Speaker 1: embarrassed by this, but they're not. They view this as, 295 00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:17,159 Speaker 1: you know, they're vanguard, their frontline ideological troops, making a 296 00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:21,040 Speaker 1: play to get some attention. That's all I see this 297 00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:24,320 Speaker 1: as I don't ever want to hear the left whine 298 00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:27,080 Speaker 1: about Trump is phil mean, he's look what he says 299 00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:29,359 Speaker 1: to journalists. Remember a couple of months ago, when the 300 00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:31,040 Speaker 1: biggest problem in the country for a couple of days, 301 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,399 Speaker 1: Trump is still mean to journalists. He's eroding the First Amendment. 302 00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:37,000 Speaker 1: A bunch of cry babies. I told you so at 303 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:38,280 Speaker 1: the time, and I was right, And you know I 304 00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:41,680 Speaker 1: was right a bunch of cry babies. Oh it's so 305 00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:44,399 Speaker 1: hard for using people are making some of the millions 306 00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:47,320 Speaker 1: of dollars to do a job that any third rate 307 00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:50,280 Speaker 1: male model could do. Oh you know, here I am 308 00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:56,760 Speaker 1: outside of the Trump is mean to me and so sad. Journalism. Also, 309 00:18:56,800 --> 00:18:59,880 Speaker 1: the thing about journalism is journalism is basically just a conversation. Now, 310 00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:03,080 Speaker 1: it's just a it's just a form of communication where 311 00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:05,719 Speaker 1: we can all anybody can be a journalist. You got 312 00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:07,680 Speaker 1: access to the internet, you can publish stuff. If people 313 00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:10,520 Speaker 1: read it, hey you're a journalist. It doesn't really matter. 314 00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:14,359 Speaker 1: And journalism as a concept doesn't hold water the way 315 00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:17,640 Speaker 1: it used to. And and certainly journalism as nonpartisan, unbiased, 316 00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:19,919 Speaker 1: I mean, that's a complete joke. But and back to this, 317 00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:22,720 Speaker 1: I I just it keeps happening. It happens here in 318 00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:24,280 Speaker 1: d C. And it's one of the reasons why I 319 00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:26,240 Speaker 1: get to speak to all of you. I'm behind enemy 320 00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:30,040 Speaker 1: lines here, folks. You are my lifeline to sanity. You 321 00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 1: every night, all of you listening to this show. Because 322 00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:35,680 Speaker 1: the crazies that I deal with, you know, on the 323 00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:39,199 Speaker 1: streets here. They're chasing after Ted Cruz. They're everywhere in 324 00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:42,719 Speaker 1: this city, and a lot of them work for different 325 00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 1: government agencies and bureaucracies, which is pretty scary. All right, everybody, 326 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:51,560 Speaker 1: let's play a game. What is the dumbest thing that 327 00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:55,720 Speaker 1: has been said on CNN all week? Not pop up up, 328 00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:58,320 Speaker 1: don't just jump in and start throwing out I know 329 00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:01,919 Speaker 1: and I can do that too. They've probably been a 330 00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:08,440 Speaker 1: lot of very very stupid things said on CNN recently, 331 00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:13,520 Speaker 1: but I have to that I think are the incredible 332 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:16,120 Speaker 1: Hulk and the Thing, if you will, I mean, this 333 00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:19,520 Speaker 1: is a this is Batman versus Superman. This is a 334 00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:26,160 Speaker 1: clash of titanic stupidity on CNN for the the dumbest 335 00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 1: comments that I've heard recently. That there's a lot of 336 00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:30,560 Speaker 1: others that could certain Like, I mean, we could always 337 00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:34,800 Speaker 1: throw in some gurgling with Gurgan bird nuction for Reagan, 338 00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:38,960 Speaker 1: impeachment nuction Reagan. There's a lot of that we could 339 00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:41,600 Speaker 1: throw in there. But I want to get to to 340 00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:46,320 Speaker 1: a couple that just blew my mind. I'm gonna put 341 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:48,080 Speaker 1: this one in the number two slot. I'm gonna get 342 00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:52,239 Speaker 1: this the runner up dumbest thing I've heard on CNN. Uh, 343 00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:54,320 Speaker 1: and it's from Simone Sanders. Was this on the on 344 00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:56,840 Speaker 1: the Tapper panel. Tapper loves to have lots of really 345 00:20:58,119 --> 00:21:00,520 Speaker 1: very unimpressive analysts on his panel for a guy who 346 00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:05,240 Speaker 1: takes himself quite seriously. But here here's what was said 347 00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:06,920 Speaker 1: on the panel. I don't even know who this analyst is. 348 00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 1: PLAIP twelve the senim a joining leader calling this a 349 00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:13,040 Speaker 1: smear campaign is uh? Is a is a small dog 350 00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:15,800 Speaker 1: whistle to the base of the Republican Party, maybe even 351 00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:18,840 Speaker 1: Trump's base, talking about the suggesting that he doesn't believe 352 00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:25,840 Speaker 1: these women. No, No, it's it's not a a dog whistle. Um. 353 00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:29,240 Speaker 1: A dog whistle is something that you're hoping only some 354 00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:33,680 Speaker 1: people here. When you call this a smear campaign, CNN 355 00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:38,639 Speaker 1: political analyst, you are flatly saying this is not to 356 00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 1: be believed. This, this is not credible. The people making 357 00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:46,119 Speaker 1: the allegations are doing so for political reasons. They are lying. 358 00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:49,600 Speaker 1: That's not a dog whistle. You know, if I go 359 00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:51,639 Speaker 1: to the store and I say, hey, I would like 360 00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:55,760 Speaker 1: to buy some hamburger meat, that's not a dog whistle 361 00:21:56,359 --> 00:22:00,520 Speaker 1: that I would like to actually buy some hot dog. No, 362 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:04,000 Speaker 1: it's a request to buy hamburger meat. I just I 363 00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:08,479 Speaker 1: don't think she understands what a a dog whistle is um. 364 00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:11,680 Speaker 1: Or maybe she's so used to talking about dog whistles 365 00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:14,760 Speaker 1: on TV and having everybody think that that's that's great 366 00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:16,639 Speaker 1: that she throws in them. But I just want to 367 00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:18,600 Speaker 1: help her out. It's not a dog whistle when he 368 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:21,840 Speaker 1: calls it a smear campaign, it is straight up a whistle, 369 00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:24,520 Speaker 1: meaning everybody can hear it. I mean, he's saying this 370 00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:27,239 Speaker 1: is crap. He is blowing the whistle on this, and 371 00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:30,359 Speaker 1: I am glad. Wow. She served as national press secretary 372 00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:35,760 Speaker 1: for Bernie Sanders Man. It was not a not an 373 00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:39,119 Speaker 1: intelligent comment. I don't know this person is um. But 374 00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:42,159 Speaker 1: then you had and this wasn't from a political person. 375 00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:46,800 Speaker 1: This was one of these segments where I saw people 376 00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:50,399 Speaker 1: commenting on her on social media just in reference to it, 377 00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:53,680 Speaker 1: and I thought, come on, it can't really be what 378 00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:58,000 Speaker 1: people are saying it was. It can't actually be that 379 00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 1: that stupid. There's no way that somebody would go on 380 00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:04,040 Speaker 1: TV and do this. It turns out no, no, it 381 00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:08,960 Speaker 1: was that bad. You had a legal analyst going on 382 00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:13,120 Speaker 1: CNN on Brooke Baldwin Show, who I like Brooks. She's 383 00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:16,119 Speaker 1: a very nice lady. I know her a little bit 384 00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:18,000 Speaker 1: socially that I haven't seen her in a couple of years, 385 00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:21,119 Speaker 1: and and I think that she generally tries to do 386 00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:24,479 Speaker 1: a pretty a pretty even handed job on this stuff. 387 00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:29,960 Speaker 1: But she um had this person on who is supposed 388 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:33,080 Speaker 1: to be a legal expert of some kind, and here 389 00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:35,560 Speaker 1: is what was said, play clip twenty nine, please and 390 00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:37,760 Speaker 1: I And it's it's disturbing to me because during the break, 391 00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:40,320 Speaker 1: I'm scrolling through Twitter, and I'm looking at people actually 392 00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:43,480 Speaker 1: saying and applauding the judge in the sentence and then 393 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:46,760 Speaker 1: in the same breath wanting to defend Kavanaugh. And and 394 00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:49,200 Speaker 1: it's it's disturbing to me because again, like Riva said, 395 00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:52,439 Speaker 1: this is a monumental, defining moment this week when you 396 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:55,560 Speaker 1: have someone like Coffee going to prison and then in 397 00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:59,199 Speaker 1: the same breath, having Kavanaugh possibly going to the highest 398 00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:02,280 Speaker 1: court in the land. And so anyone that's defending Kavanaugh 399 00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:05,560 Speaker 1: could not in the same breath now applaud this um 400 00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:08,080 Speaker 1: jury for or this uh, this verdict that the judge 401 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:10,000 Speaker 1: is handed down in the same breath. That just doesn't 402 00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:14,240 Speaker 1: make any sense. Yeah, this is somebody who is a 403 00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:20,680 Speaker 1: former prosecutor, folks, who apparently doesn't understand the very basic 404 00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:25,720 Speaker 1: idea in our legal system of the presumption of innocence, 405 00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:30,320 Speaker 1: innocidential proven guilty, or even just you know, having some 406 00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:36,240 Speaker 1: due process or basic logic and reasoning. All of that 407 00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:39,040 Speaker 1: seems to be abandoned here. All of that is pushed 408 00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:44,080 Speaker 1: pushed aside in favor of scoring some cheap political points 409 00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:47,120 Speaker 1: for an audience. I mean, the CNN audience, I can 410 00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:51,320 Speaker 1: assure you, is a bunch of rabid Kavanaugh haters. And 411 00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:53,360 Speaker 1: that was one of the reasons why I stopped doing CNN. 412 00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:55,560 Speaker 1: I realized at some point, and I really mean this, 413 00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:59,800 Speaker 1: I didn't respect the audience and I didn't like that. 414 00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:04,639 Speaker 1: I don't like doing something like that on a regular basis. 415 00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:06,719 Speaker 1: Is when I was a contributor there, I was paid 416 00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:12,280 Speaker 1: to be a political commentator at CNN national security analyst, 417 00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:14,679 Speaker 1: but I didn't like it because I knew that when 418 00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:17,520 Speaker 1: I was talking, I didn't respect the audience. You know, 419 00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:19,480 Speaker 1: I come onto this show every night and one of 420 00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:22,320 Speaker 1: the things that motivates me is I think I have 421 00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:24,560 Speaker 1: the best and then I remember says, oh, I think 422 00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:26,159 Speaker 1: I have the best audience, but I really do. I mean, 423 00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:29,320 Speaker 1: I am inspired by the people listen to this show. Uh, 424 00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:34,240 Speaker 1: They've supported me for years. They've shown tremendous humor and 425 00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:38,399 Speaker 1: kindness and humility and have taught me so much over 426 00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:40,280 Speaker 1: the years that I've been doing the Bucks Exton Show, 427 00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:42,560 Speaker 1: and I come to this show every night. I gotta 428 00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:44,720 Speaker 1: I gotta give this audience is or the best I 429 00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:47,280 Speaker 1: can give them every single night. When I was at CNN, 430 00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:49,240 Speaker 1: quite honestly, I kind of wanted to end every segment 431 00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:52,560 Speaker 1: by flipping them the double bird to the audience. Hey 432 00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:55,119 Speaker 1: are you sitting at home? Double bird? There you go 433 00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:58,200 Speaker 1: take that one, Brandon. Isn't that what it's called? You 434 00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:00,920 Speaker 1: flip the bird? Right? I'm not Yeah, that's what it's called, 435 00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:05,040 Speaker 1: all right. Or a bronx is a bronx salute the 436 00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:07,600 Speaker 1: one finger, No, that one finger salutes the middle finger. 437 00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:09,760 Speaker 1: The bronx salute is like when you make a like 438 00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:14,960 Speaker 1: a noise. Right, do we know you guys are in 439 00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:16,680 Speaker 1: New York? What do you got for me? Yeah? I 440 00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:20,520 Speaker 1: haven't heard of the bronx. I think bronx cheer bronx. 441 00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:23,240 Speaker 1: That's what I was thinking of. But when you google 442 00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:26,399 Speaker 1: Bronx salute, actually the picture comes up of a New 443 00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:29,639 Speaker 1: York Yankee given the middle finger. Well, there you go. 444 00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:32,200 Speaker 1: You're onto something there, so I'm not. I'm not as 445 00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:35,439 Speaker 1: crazy as I thought I was onto something. But this, 446 00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:37,800 Speaker 1: let's just let's just pull this apart for a second. 447 00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:44,640 Speaker 1: That Cosby who has had I mean, producer, Mike, what's 448 00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:47,600 Speaker 1: the number? Fifty sixty women? I mean it's you know, 449 00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:51,840 Speaker 1: it's a it's like a full you know, uh, you know, 450 00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:54,200 Speaker 1: it's a full football roster. Is worth the people. It's 451 00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:56,399 Speaker 1: like fifty or sixty people have accused this guy of 452 00:26:56,920 --> 00:27:01,000 Speaker 1: sexual assault of some kind. I mean eight of dozens 453 00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:04,080 Speaker 1: and dozens of women, and they all have basically the 454 00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:06,240 Speaker 1: same story. He slipped something in my drink, or he 455 00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:09,000 Speaker 1: gave me some drugs and then he took advantage of me. 456 00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:13,919 Speaker 1: There's a sixty actually has a complete list of the sixty. 457 00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:18,639 Speaker 1: Cosby astonishing Bill Clinton, I mean Bill whoops, that was freudy. 458 00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:20,560 Speaker 1: And Bill Clinton is a serial rapist, That's what I 459 00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:23,200 Speaker 1: was about to say. But no, he's just a one 460 00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:26,480 Speaker 1: off rapist and a sexual abuser and sexual assaulter. But 461 00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:32,600 Speaker 1: but Cosby is a serial sexual predator who has had 462 00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:36,480 Speaker 1: all this evidence presented against him, a lot of it 463 00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:38,880 Speaker 1: from and remember and he was an adult and these 464 00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:42,199 Speaker 1: were adults, and this was you know, stretching back in 465 00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:45,000 Speaker 1: some cases, you know, a couple of decades, but the 466 00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:48,000 Speaker 1: specifics were never in question. He did know these women, 467 00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:50,760 Speaker 1: he was at these places with them. There's mountains of 468 00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:54,199 Speaker 1: evidence against this guy, and he was just afforded the 469 00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:56,879 Speaker 1: right to a trial by jury and he was found guilty. 470 00:27:57,160 --> 00:28:01,200 Speaker 1: To compare that activity that he engaged in and that 471 00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:05,280 Speaker 1: process that he was given in any way to what 472 00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:09,280 Speaker 1: Kavanaugh has been put through right now and what's going 473 00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:15,040 Speaker 1: on with the Kavana situation is a monumental idiocy. It 474 00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:18,840 Speaker 1: is aggressively stupid, and there's a lot of aggressively stupid 475 00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:21,640 Speaker 1: out there right now. I think that the biggest thing 476 00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:26,840 Speaker 1: that I was getting attacked for because I've been very 477 00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:31,680 Speaker 1: vocal on social media, on Twitter and specifically in defensive 478 00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:34,680 Speaker 1: Kavanaugh from the beginning that I've been and you know, 479 00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:37,159 Speaker 1: producer Mike knows, because I've been setting up it's you know, 480 00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:39,320 Speaker 1: people are gonna come at me, but they and they have, 481 00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:42,240 Speaker 1: but I have been all in on this is BS 482 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:45,200 Speaker 1: Derek this is a hit. And I know you know this, 483 00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:48,240 Speaker 1: but not everybody. Now people have woken up a little 484 00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:50,360 Speaker 1: bit on the more woke, you could say, on the 485 00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:52,880 Speaker 1: on the conservative side. But I from the beginning I 486 00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:55,960 Speaker 1: smelled the rat. I smelled the rat. No way, this 487 00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:59,640 Speaker 1: was legit. And what I keep seeing in my my 488 00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:01,720 Speaker 1: mens as they say, I mean the responses to me, 489 00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:05,120 Speaker 1: and I mean from from Blue Check.

I mean her 495 00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:23,560 Speaker 1: Her morning show was. Her morning show was like the 496 00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:27,440 Speaker 1: the jar jar Binks of morning shows. And my old 497 00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:29,560 Speaker 1: friend Will Caine, who, by the way, God bless him, 498 00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:32,920 Speaker 1: is doing great, really well at ESPN building out a 499 00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:35,000 Speaker 1: radio show there. I'm so happy for all the success 500 00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:37,160 Speaker 1: put I used to feel bad he had to sit 501 00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:40,840 Speaker 1: on this panel with Sola Dad and you know, just 502 00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:43,560 Speaker 1: kind of deal with her every day. And she was 503 00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:45,280 Speaker 1: the host, so it wasn't like he was a co host. 504 00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:47,440 Speaker 1: And man, that was rough anyway, she's terrible. She and 505 00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:51,000 Speaker 1: others have come after me, and they keep refew referring 506 00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:53,920 Speaker 1: to Kavanaugh as a rapist. And I see here, and 507 00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:55,320 Speaker 1: I go, do I have to be the one who 508 00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:59,520 Speaker 1: points out that nobody says he's raped anybody, nobody that 509 00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:03,080 Speaker 1: that has never even been alleged. Rape is a specific 510 00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:09,520 Speaker 1: physical act of illegal uh, physical penetration. Okay, that is 511 00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:14,480 Speaker 1: what rape is. Rape is not, you know, I I, uh, 512 00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:18,440 Speaker 1: you know, pulled my pants down for a second at 513 00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:21,239 Speaker 1: a fraternity party. You know that's not rape. It may 514 00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:24,080 Speaker 1: be indecent exposure. I'm not saying it's okay, maybe criminal, 515 00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:27,480 Speaker 1: but it's not rape. And you'll you'll notice that there's 516 00:30:27,560 --> 00:30:32,960 Speaker 1: such a uh, such a frenzy, a frenzy on this 517 00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:37,200 Speaker 1: to just try and paint Kavanaugh in some way as 518 00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:40,640 Speaker 1: a rapist, I mean to try and create the association 519 00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:46,520 Speaker 1: in people's minds that Kavanaugh is talked about in the 520 00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:49,160 Speaker 1: same category as Bill Cosby. I mean to talk about 521 00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:53,120 Speaker 1: Kavanaugh in the same category as Bill Cosby, to speak 522 00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:55,000 Speaker 1: about them in the same sentence, in the way that 523 00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:59,040 Speaker 1: this woman on National TV, given airtime on on CNN 524 00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:03,800 Speaker 1: that she did is really ethically and morally. No different 525 00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:12,760 Speaker 1: from referring to somebody who allegedly, um, you know, allegedly 526 00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:16,680 Speaker 1: punched somebody in the face, to somebody who's a a 527 00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:21,240 Speaker 1: you know, mass murderer. You know, so assault, I mean, right, 528 00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:23,240 Speaker 1: punching somebody would be assault. And I'm talking about the 529 00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:25,600 Speaker 1: allegation from his college years. We expose themselves, right, but 530 00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:27,400 Speaker 1: I mean assault. Okay, that's not okay, that's a crime. 531 00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:30,800 Speaker 1: It's an allegation. But there's a lot of difference between 532 00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:34,160 Speaker 1: an allegation of assault and being a mass murderer. Bill 533 00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 1: Cosby is a serial rapist. In the dozens and dozens 534 00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:40,640 Speaker 1: and dozens to speak about him in the same sentence 535 00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:45,040 Speaker 1: as if if everything that has been alleged about Kavanaugh 536 00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:48,360 Speaker 1: so far it's true and it is not. These women 537 00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:52,200 Speaker 1: are lying. I will say it to you in plain English, 538 00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:54,760 Speaker 1: because that's the kind of relationship we have. They are lying, 539 00:31:55,160 --> 00:32:00,200 Speaker 1: or there's another possibility they believe what they are saying, 540 00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:03,680 Speaker 1: but they are delusional, or their their memories have faded 541 00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:07,720 Speaker 1: into a near delusion where they think something happened and 542 00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:09,640 Speaker 1: it did not. You know, I actually I want to 543 00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:12,440 Speaker 1: spend a little more time on that notion. Uh in 544 00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:14,320 Speaker 1: just a moment. Let let me let me hit a 545 00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:16,600 Speaker 1: quick pause here, team. I want to tell you more 546 00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:19,959 Speaker 1: about this, uh memory and what we know about memory 547 00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:25,600 Speaker 1: as it affects people's ability to identify accusers, and how 548 00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:27,920 Speaker 1: it plays out in the criminal justice system, because I 549 00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:30,120 Speaker 1: think there's some very interesting stuff on this and it's 550 00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:33,920 Speaker 1: not getting no surprise, not getting nearly enough attention from 551 00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:36,880 Speaker 1: the media, and it's very relevant to our conversations about 552 00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:39,680 Speaker 1: what's really going on here with Kavanaugh. So I've got 553 00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:41,960 Speaker 1: that coming up. Stay with me, you know, I was 554 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:44,280 Speaker 1: just in the break. I'm talking to producer Mike here, 555 00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:46,960 Speaker 1: and I'm not gonna say that I am an honorary 556 00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:51,760 Speaker 1: member of Dirsh's legal advisory squad or something, but for 557 00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:54,720 Speaker 1: some reason, the DIRSH and I are always kind of 558 00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:57,280 Speaker 1: on the same wavelength. I I I'm about to start 559 00:32:57,320 --> 00:33:00,880 Speaker 1: telling you about the Innocence Project Act and what liberals 560 00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:04,880 Speaker 1: usually say about memory, and producer Mike is like, but 561 00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:07,080 Speaker 1: you know, you know that I can get you audio 562 00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:09,880 Speaker 1: of DIRSH talking about this. Alan Dershowitz for those who 563 00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:12,680 Speaker 1: don't know, we call him the DIRSH, just like you know, 564 00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:14,800 Speaker 1: I try to call Joe Concho my buddy, my my 565 00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:17,000 Speaker 1: hill colleague, the conch. I don't think he likes it. 566 00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:18,880 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't he hasn't really taken to it. 567 00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:21,400 Speaker 1: And if somebody doesn't like their nickname, I have a rule. 568 00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:23,880 Speaker 1: Even if they kind of make an offhand remark about 569 00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:26,640 Speaker 1: you know, I don't really like you, gotta stop. But 570 00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:29,640 Speaker 1: here's here's what the dirsh the durst likes it. I've 571 00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:32,400 Speaker 1: said it to him before. Here's what he thinks about memory. 572 00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:34,680 Speaker 1: When it comes to criminal cases, play it. It depends 573 00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:39,280 Speaker 1: on how tough the lawyer is in his cross examination 574 00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:43,680 Speaker 1: of the accuser. And he must be or she must 575 00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:47,360 Speaker 1: be tough. She can't just be allowed to say, well, 576 00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:50,080 Speaker 1: I thought about it, then I didn't remember it, and 577 00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:52,960 Speaker 1: then it took me six days to reconstruct my memory. 578 00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:56,840 Speaker 1: A good cross examining lawyer has to be gender free, 579 00:33:57,240 --> 00:34:00,600 Speaker 1: has to raise the same kinds of tough questions about 580 00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:05,160 Speaker 1: repressed memory and how to reconstruct memory, and exactly what 581 00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:07,600 Speaker 1: she was told by whom she was told it, who 582 00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:11,760 Speaker 1: made suggestions to her? How did her memory improve over time? 583 00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:15,680 Speaker 1: We know that biologically memories don't improve over time. They 584 00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:18,200 Speaker 1: received over time. How did her memory get so much 585 00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:21,040 Speaker 1: better over six days of briefing with her lawyer. That 586 00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:24,560 Speaker 1: is a subject of appropriate cross examination, and any woman 587 00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:27,520 Speaker 1: or man who was afraid to be tough in cross 588 00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:32,319 Speaker 1: examining her or cross examining him should not have that job. Hey, 589 00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:35,000 Speaker 1: the Dirsh is wrong on some stuff. He's a big lib. 590 00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:37,560 Speaker 1: He hates the Second Amendment. There's some things where he's 591 00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:40,640 Speaker 1: way off. But man, if I ever got into a scrap, 592 00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:42,479 Speaker 1: I'd want the Dirsh to be my counsel. I gotta 593 00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:45,080 Speaker 1: tell you of all the of all the TV lawyers, 594 00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:48,319 Speaker 1: a producer, Mike, let me, let me ask, who's your friend? 595 00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:51,960 Speaker 1: You can get any TV lawyer to be your guy. 596 00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:54,920 Speaker 1: You're you're you're caught in Alabama for a murder you 597 00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:57,239 Speaker 1: did not commit when you were robbing a store and 598 00:34:57,280 --> 00:34:59,960 Speaker 1: it turns out they checked the tire treads because you're 599 00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:03,080 Speaker 1: your cousin. And you know how the story ends. Um, 600 00:35:03,160 --> 00:35:06,759 Speaker 1: who's your Who's your TV lawyer? Though, man, real life, 601 00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:10,120 Speaker 1: real life TV lawyer. Yeah, it has to be the DRS. 602 00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:13,200 Speaker 1: You go the Dirsh. Yeah, I think so too. It's 603 00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:16,120 Speaker 1: definitely not Avanati. You'd end up in like a Turkish prison. 604 00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:18,520 Speaker 1: You get said something, you get sent to you can 605 00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:20,919 Speaker 1: send a git Mo Avanati were your lawyer, you would 606 00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:23,399 Speaker 1: not want that. But but here's here's what I wanted 607 00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:26,040 Speaker 1: to get into with you. And and I'm actually I 608 00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:28,200 Speaker 1: don't even have as much time as as I wanted 609 00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:31,280 Speaker 1: on this one. UM, And so you know what, maybe 610 00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:34,520 Speaker 1: maybe I'll I'll extend this a little bit into the 611 00:35:35,360 --> 00:35:37,080 Speaker 1: I'll extend this a little bit into the next the 612 00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:39,800 Speaker 1: next hour. Let's let's plan on doing that. But he 613 00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:44,960 Speaker 1: here's the very short version. Memory does get worse over time. 614 00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:50,759 Speaker 1: All of these different UH structural defenses that you have 615 00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:56,680 Speaker 1: in a normal proceeding, the right to UH cross examine, 616 00:35:56,719 --> 00:35:59,680 Speaker 1: the right to confront the accuser, the right to you know, 617 00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:04,680 Speaker 1: to outside council UH, the ability to question memory, the 618 00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:08,600 Speaker 1: ability to question those are all being swept aside because 619 00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:10,759 Speaker 1: they're saying it's not a criminal proceeding, but it's about 620 00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:14,000 Speaker 1: a criminal action. So they want a political consequence for 621 00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:17,759 Speaker 1: a criminal action that they allege without any ability to 622 00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:22,360 Speaker 1: defend it through normal criminal defense procedure. That's what the 623 00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:24,400 Speaker 1: capital hearing is supposed to turn into. And on the 624 00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:28,120 Speaker 1: question of memory specifically, UH, there are some ways in 625 00:36:28,120 --> 00:36:32,440 Speaker 1: which you can look at this and maybe the women 626 00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:35,719 Speaker 1: think they're telling the truth, but they're not. That's not 627 00:36:36,280 --> 00:36:40,239 Speaker 1: unprecedented at all. In fact, it happens with some frequency. 628 00:36:40,280 --> 00:36:43,120 Speaker 1: I will tell you more about that in just a moment. 629 00:36:44,280 --> 00:36:47,000 Speaker 1: I start my day the same way every day, with 630 00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:52,120 Speaker 1: a cup of delicious Black Rifle coffee.

The other 660 00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:37,279 Speaker 1: people alleged to be there, I don't recall any such thing. 661 00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:40,239 Speaker 1: If such a thing had happened, it would have been 662 00:38:40,280 --> 00:38:43,760 Speaker 1: the talk of campus. The women I knew in college 663 00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:46,160 Speaker 1: and the men I knew in college says, it's inconceivable 664 00:38:46,280 --> 00:38:48,520 Speaker 1: that I could have done such a thing. And then 665 00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:52,680 Speaker 1: New York Times is reported that just last week, the 666 00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:57,000 Speaker 1: person making the accusation was calling other classmates saying she 667 00:38:57,160 --> 00:39:00,480 Speaker 1: was not sure that I had done this again again, 668 00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:04,560 Speaker 1: just asking for a fair process where I can be 669 00:39:04,640 --> 00:39:08,680 Speaker 1: heard and I can defend my integrity. People generally in 670 00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:10,480 Speaker 1: high school. I think all of us have probably done 671 00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:13,840 Speaker 1: things we look back on in high school and regret 672 00:39:13,960 --> 00:39:17,040 Speaker 1: or cringe a bit. But that's not what we're talking about. 673 00:39:17,400 --> 00:39:20,160 Speaker 1: We're talking about allegation of sexual assault. I've never sexually 674 00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:24,080 Speaker 1: assaulted anyone. I did not have sexual intercourse or anything 675 00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:27,600 Speaker 1: close to sexual intercourse in high school or for many 676 00:39:27,719 --> 00:39:32,440 Speaker 1: years thereafter. And the girls from the schools I went to, 677 00:39:33,080 --> 00:39:36,680 Speaker 1: and I, uh, we're saying that all through all these 678 00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:40,160 Speaker 1: years that are in question, you were a virgin. That's correct. 679 00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:44,560 Speaker 1: Never has sexual intercourse with anyone in high school? Correct? 680 00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:47,160 Speaker 1: And through what years in college? Since we're proving into 681 00:39:47,200 --> 00:39:49,880 Speaker 1: your personal years many years after I'll leave it at that, 682 00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:56,000 Speaker 1: many years after. That was a pretty good rundown of 683 00:39:56,040 --> 00:39:59,720 Speaker 1: what you got from that exclusive interview that Martha McCallum 684 00:39:59,800 --> 00:40:03,920 Speaker 1: had last night with Judge Kavanaugh. Notice how people keep 685 00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:07,080 Speaker 1: preferring him as Brett Kavanaugh on the media and Dr 686 00:40:07,239 --> 00:40:12,600 Speaker 1: Ford that's that's not an accident. Folks, Kavanaugh's credentials if 687 00:40:12,600 --> 00:40:14,520 Speaker 1: we're gonna go there. I know this is a little point, 688 00:40:14,560 --> 00:40:17,520 Speaker 1: but but just keep it in mind when you're hearing 689 00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:22,480 Speaker 1: all this coverage Kavanaughs. Kavanaughs credentials and academic background far 690 00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:26,880 Speaker 1: exceed hers, but he is always referred to by certain 691 00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:30,680 Speaker 1: people of media's Brett Kavanaugh, Brett Kavanaugh. And she's always 692 00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:33,560 Speaker 1: doctor or Ford. I mean, she's professor Ford. He just 693 00:40:33,640 --> 00:40:38,759 Speaker 1: like psychology, sociology at some California school. Okay, fine, but 694 00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:42,160 Speaker 1: you know, I I noticed all these little things in 695 00:40:42,160 --> 00:40:45,080 Speaker 1: the reportage of this, and and we should we should 696 00:40:45,080 --> 00:40:46,680 Speaker 1: call it out. You should be aware of it because 697 00:40:46,719 --> 00:40:49,920 Speaker 1: they're they're trying to get you to make certain distinctions 698 00:40:49,960 --> 00:40:53,640 Speaker 1: about all this. But bottom line, folks, this is all 699 00:40:53,680 --> 00:40:56,760 Speaker 1: a con. This is all a hit. In fact, President 700 00:40:56,800 --> 00:40:59,480 Speaker 1: Trump called it a combra. Do we have that, producer, Mike, 701 00:41:00,160 --> 00:41:02,040 Speaker 1: He finally came out and said, it's a straight up Cohn, 702 00:41:02,480 --> 00:41:04,520 Speaker 1: which I was very We'll get it, all right, We'll 703 00:41:04,600 --> 00:41:07,600 Speaker 1: we'll grab that. Oh we got it. Here here's here's 704 00:41:07,600 --> 00:41:12,320 Speaker 1: the president hit it. I think he's just a wonderful 705 00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:14,759 Speaker 1: human being. I mean, I think it's horrible. What the 706 00:41:14,840 --> 00:41:18,800 Speaker 1: Democrats have done. It's an they're really kind of honest, 707 00:41:18,840 --> 00:41:22,839 Speaker 1: just they're trying to convince. You know, they don't they 708 00:41:22,840 --> 00:41:25,600 Speaker 1: don't believe it themselves. Okay, they know he's a high 709 00:41:25,719 --> 00:41:30,759 Speaker 1: quality president. They don't believe him. It's just resist and obstruct, 710 00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:38,600 Speaker 1: resist and obstruct a hundred percent correct. The President is 711 00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:42,440 Speaker 1: spot on here. Okay. I think the President is doing 712 00:41:42,560 --> 00:41:47,160 Speaker 1: a phenomenal job of and has shown a tremendous amount 713 00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:52,000 Speaker 1: of restraint on this issue given everything else that's going on. 714 00:41:52,200 --> 00:41:57,160 Speaker 1: I think the President has been really um impressive thus far. 715 00:41:57,239 --> 00:42:00,319 Speaker 1: And now he's reacted under the circumstances to because he 716 00:42:00,320 --> 00:42:02,200 Speaker 1: could have just gone off the handle and crazy tweets 717 00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:05,160 Speaker 1: and everything else. No, No, he understands the stakes here. 718 00:42:05,200 --> 00:42:08,720 Speaker 1: He knows he knows that a lot of conservatives and 719 00:42:08,719 --> 00:42:16,120 Speaker 1: and I mean traditional you know, evangelical and and uh 720 00:42:16,600 --> 00:42:21,920 Speaker 1: you know conservative socially Christians voted for Trump understanding the 721 00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:24,200 Speaker 1: stakes here, and the Supreme Court was at the center 722 00:42:24,239 --> 00:42:28,200 Speaker 1: of that. So he knows, he gets it, and he 723 00:42:28,239 --> 00:42:30,000 Speaker 1: knows the Cavanal is a good man, and most importantly, 724 00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:34,880 Speaker 1: he knows this is all bull. It is all complete bull. 725 00:42:36,440 --> 00:42:41,880 Speaker 1: It is just complete bull. Crap, and we need to 726 00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:45,520 Speaker 1: understand that and and not allow them to bully us 727 00:42:45,520 --> 00:42:49,799 Speaker 1: into doubting ourselves on this Kavanaugh. And so that's why 728 00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:51,719 Speaker 1: I love. It's a con. It is a con, the 729 00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:58,000 Speaker 1: whole thing. I am. I was certain day one. I'm 730 00:42:58,200 --> 00:43:03,400 Speaker 1: I'm nine and certain. Now. I mean, you know, theoretically 731 00:43:03,840 --> 00:43:05,960 Speaker 1: aliens could land and tell me that they had a 732 00:43:05,960 --> 00:43:08,600 Speaker 1: time machine, and you know, maybe this, I mean, that's 733 00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:12,800 Speaker 1: why it's you know, because to borrow from zero dark thirty, 734 00:43:12,800 --> 00:43:15,799 Speaker 1: you know, certainty freaks people out. But I'm sure this 735 00:43:15,840 --> 00:43:17,840 Speaker 1: is a god and Trump came out and said it, 736 00:43:17,880 --> 00:43:20,080 Speaker 1: and God bless him for it. All right, He's completely 737 00:43:20,080 --> 00:43:26,400 Speaker 1: correct here, But a few important things from Kavanaughs. Kavanaughs denial, 738 00:43:27,680 --> 00:43:30,320 Speaker 1: and but he noticed on his denial, it's not a 739 00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:34,200 Speaker 1: Keith Allison denial. It's not a Rosenstein denying that he 740 00:43:34,239 --> 00:43:37,880 Speaker 1: was going to use the amendment to take this president 741 00:43:37,880 --> 00:43:39,960 Speaker 1: out of office. To know, I mean, it's a it 742 00:43:40,120 --> 00:43:46,600 Speaker 1: is a straight up no way, no, how absolute no. 743 00:43:48,120 --> 00:43:52,680 Speaker 1: But he put out some markers. He's very very smart, 744 00:43:52,800 --> 00:43:54,680 Speaker 1: all right. I mean Kavanaugh to become a d C. 745 00:43:54,840 --> 00:43:58,680 Speaker 1: Circuit judge, to be his level in the legal profession, 746 00:43:59,360 --> 00:44:03,040 Speaker 1: and he's not getting it because you know, he's you know, 747 00:44:03,160 --> 00:44:05,799 Speaker 1: his mommy or daddy wrote a big check. He's not 748 00:44:05,840 --> 00:44:08,920 Speaker 1: getting it because he's the right ethnicity for the job. Right, 749 00:44:08,920 --> 00:44:13,120 Speaker 1: He's getting because you're wicked smart. He understands that he 750 00:44:13,239 --> 00:44:19,000 Speaker 1: is setting up very specific allegations, or rather very specific markers, 751 00:44:19,040 --> 00:44:24,439 Speaker 1: not allegations, of that the person making these allegations has 752 00:44:24,480 --> 00:44:28,280 Speaker 1: to be careful that she doesn't trip on. For example, 753 00:44:28,400 --> 00:44:32,040 Speaker 1: what he says that he was a virgin all throughout 754 00:44:32,120 --> 00:44:37,080 Speaker 1: high school. Now he is asking for people to believe 755 00:44:37,239 --> 00:44:42,000 Speaker 1: that this guy, with an impeccable record his entire life, 756 00:44:43,080 --> 00:44:45,560 Speaker 1: not only all of a sudden, decided to hold the 757 00:44:45,600 --> 00:44:47,879 Speaker 1: girl down, rip off her bathing suit, raper and and 758 00:44:48,320 --> 00:44:52,680 Speaker 1: just I mean completely throw away his life in the process, right, 759 00:44:52,719 --> 00:44:54,719 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, he would have been you know, scum, 760 00:44:55,160 --> 00:44:57,400 Speaker 1: deserve to go to prison had he done that. He 761 00:44:57,440 --> 00:45:00,320 Speaker 1: did not. But let's also remember, but that is a 762 00:45:00,840 --> 00:45:03,600 Speaker 1: thing that you just forgotta you know, hold the woman down. 763 00:45:03,600 --> 00:45:06,759 Speaker 1: I mean, he is his life is over that he 764 00:45:06,800 --> 00:45:11,759 Speaker 1: would just do that and be a virgin. Now I'm 765 00:45:11,760 --> 00:45:13,840 Speaker 1: not saying that's impossible. I don't want to, you know, 766 00:45:13,920 --> 00:45:15,600 Speaker 1: yell at me and say, oh, but but Buck, you 767 00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:17,640 Speaker 1: know this is I've heard of this story where no, no, 768 00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:25,000 Speaker 1: it's highly highly unlikely. Though, Okay, a an aggressive, violent 769 00:45:25,200 --> 00:45:29,520 Speaker 1: sexual predator who has never had sex before and is 770 00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:33,520 Speaker 1: a teenage boy who is otherwise well adjusted and happy 771 00:45:33,600 --> 00:45:39,680 Speaker 1: and loving family would be quite a stretch. And it 772 00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:41,879 Speaker 1: also goes to show you how he's willing. He's willing 773 00:45:41,920 --> 00:45:44,800 Speaker 1: to talk about anything in order to get to the 774 00:45:44,800 --> 00:45:46,680 Speaker 1: truth here. I mean, he's willing to stand and fight, 775 00:45:46,760 --> 00:45:51,279 Speaker 1: but he also is going to expose himself. Pardon the 776 00:45:51,400 --> 00:45:53,480 Speaker 1: turn of phrase there, but he's going to be willing 777 00:45:53,520 --> 00:45:57,680 Speaker 1: to show a side of himself in this process. Um 778 00:45:57,760 --> 00:46:00,839 Speaker 1: that is embarrassing. He will go even further. By the way, 779 00:46:00,880 --> 00:46:02,800 Speaker 1: I don't mean that it's embarrassing that he's a virgin. 780 00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:05,560 Speaker 1: It's not at all. It's embarrassing that he has to 781 00:46:05,600 --> 00:46:09,600 Speaker 1: talk about his teenage sex life on national TV as 782 00:46:09,640 --> 00:46:14,200 Speaker 1: a soon to be hopefully Supreme Court judge. Don't even 783 00:46:14,239 --> 00:46:16,759 Speaker 1: get me started. I mean, there's a whole I would 784 00:46:16,800 --> 00:46:19,000 Speaker 1: advocate for. And I know it's easy to say that now, 785 00:46:19,040 --> 00:46:22,640 Speaker 1: but you know, my my basic advice would be, you know, 786 00:46:22,719 --> 00:46:24,239 Speaker 1: wait as long as you can, and you know, wait 787 00:46:24,280 --> 00:46:26,360 Speaker 1: till college if you can, you know, if anybody was 788 00:46:26,400 --> 00:46:28,440 Speaker 1: asking me, But that's a whole other discussion. And wait 789 00:46:28,520 --> 00:46:31,040 Speaker 1: till marriage if you can, but at least at least 790 00:46:31,120 --> 00:46:34,760 Speaker 1: until you're a fully functioning adult, you know, or close 791 00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:39,759 Speaker 1: to it in college. Um, so that's an aside. But 792 00:46:39,920 --> 00:46:42,800 Speaker 1: Kavanaugh then also I had to discussed drinking and partying. 793 00:46:42,880 --> 00:46:46,200 Speaker 1: And you know, see this is part of the of 794 00:46:46,280 --> 00:46:50,680 Speaker 1: the trial of so called rape culture on campus or 795 00:46:50,719 --> 00:46:55,000 Speaker 1: the frat bro rape culture on campus, frat bro for 796 00:46:55,040 --> 00:46:58,160 Speaker 1: a fraternity brother, and he had to speak about this 797 00:46:58,280 --> 00:47:00,920 Speaker 1: because this this was another that came up play for 798 00:47:01,600 --> 00:47:03,359 Speaker 1: Was there ever a time that you drank so much 799 00:47:03,400 --> 00:47:06,920 Speaker 1: that you couldn't remember what happened the night before that 800 00:47:07,040 --> 00:47:09,520 Speaker 1: never happened. You never said to anyone, I don't remember 801 00:47:09,520 --> 00:47:12,680 Speaker 1: anything about last night that did not happen. Did you 802 00:47:12,760 --> 00:47:16,440 Speaker 1: ever have any sense that any kind of the description 803 00:47:16,520 --> 00:47:19,080 Speaker 1: of the behavior that I just described with these, you know, 804 00:47:19,120 --> 00:47:22,320 Speaker 1: women being taken into rooms and raped or having sex 805 00:47:22,320 --> 00:47:24,680 Speaker 1: with a number of men, consensual or otherwise, that that 806 00:47:24,719 --> 00:47:26,160 Speaker 1: was going on at the parties that you were at. 807 00:47:26,320 --> 00:47:29,960 Speaker 1: I never saw any such thing, any such thing. I 808 00:47:30,320 --> 00:47:33,439 Speaker 1: certainly never participate in any such thing, but I never 809 00:47:33,480 --> 00:47:38,600 Speaker 1: saw or heard of any such thing, and we we 810 00:47:38,600 --> 00:47:40,799 Speaker 1: were I was focused on trying to be number one 811 00:47:40,800 --> 00:47:45,480 Speaker 1: in my class and being captain to the varsity basketball team, 812 00:47:45,640 --> 00:47:50,520 Speaker 1: in doing my service projects, going to church. The vast 813 00:47:50,560 --> 00:47:53,440 Speaker 1: majority of time I spent in high school was studying 814 00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:58,719 Speaker 1: or focused on sports and being a good friend to 815 00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:01,960 Speaker 1: the boys and the girls that I was friends with. 816 00:48:02,040 --> 00:48:08,600 Speaker 1: We have these great lifelong friendships. Everything about this guy 817 00:48:08,680 --> 00:48:10,520 Speaker 1: comes across as a good guy. And you know what 818 00:48:10,600 --> 00:48:12,919 Speaker 1: you really got a sense of from that interview last night. 819 00:48:14,320 --> 00:48:17,480 Speaker 1: I think the left hates him even more because deep 820 00:48:17,520 --> 00:48:20,520 Speaker 1: down they know he's a good guy. It isn't just 821 00:48:20,680 --> 00:48:23,040 Speaker 1: about Row, though. It's primarily about the threat that he 822 00:48:23,120 --> 00:48:25,480 Speaker 1: poses as a good guy by the way to Row 823 00:48:26,360 --> 00:48:29,520 Speaker 1: versus Wade, and it's really a threat to planned parenthood v. Casey. 824 00:48:29,560 --> 00:48:33,359 Speaker 1: But that's a whole another time. We can get into that. Um, 825 00:48:33,480 --> 00:48:36,080 Speaker 1: it's much more likely that abortion rights would be truncated 826 00:48:36,080 --> 00:48:39,440 Speaker 1: than entirely overturned to begin with, I'm sorry that I 827 00:48:39,520 --> 00:48:41,759 Speaker 1: used a term abortion rights abortion, but they always call 828 00:48:41,800 --> 00:48:47,160 Speaker 1: it abortion rights. Uh. But you know, you also really 829 00:48:47,160 --> 00:48:48,960 Speaker 1: get the sense that they hate this guy because he 830 00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:51,560 Speaker 1: does actually treat women so well because he is a 831 00:48:51,560 --> 00:48:55,600 Speaker 1: constitutional conservative who has advanced women throughout their careers, because 832 00:48:55,600 --> 00:49:00,799 Speaker 1: he's a good guy, and he is everything that the 833 00:49:00,840 --> 00:49:05,600 Speaker 1: beta males at Vox and think progress in these places 834 00:49:05,680 --> 00:49:08,440 Speaker 1: who are all, oh a huff Post and CNN, a 835 00:49:08,440 --> 00:49:10,680 Speaker 1: lot of these beta males. And I gotta tell you something, 836 00:49:11,600 --> 00:49:14,480 Speaker 1: and you know, I'm just gonna say it, and I 837 00:49:14,480 --> 00:49:16,360 Speaker 1: don't really care about the fact that this is. This 838 00:49:16,400 --> 00:49:20,239 Speaker 1: would really you know, tick some people off. Um, when 839 00:49:20,239 --> 00:49:23,879 Speaker 1: I was in college and some guys, you know, we're 840 00:49:23,920 --> 00:49:26,680 Speaker 1: getting a little a little grabby with a girl or 841 00:49:26,719 --> 00:49:29,600 Speaker 1: you know, or things are out of line. It was, 842 00:49:30,200 --> 00:49:34,600 Speaker 1: in my experience, the alpha male conservatives who were the 843 00:49:34,600 --> 00:49:37,480 Speaker 1: ones that actually would step in and say, hey, you know, 844 00:49:37,600 --> 00:49:42,040 Speaker 1: show some respect, or hey, back off. It was the 845 00:49:42,040 --> 00:49:46,920 Speaker 1: the the you know, the random Republican from the lacrosse 846 00:49:46,960 --> 00:49:49,080 Speaker 1: team who would say, hey, take your hand off or whatever. 847 00:49:49,080 --> 00:49:52,520 Speaker 1: Remember just this is totally anecdotal, but I mean, I 848 00:49:52,520 --> 00:49:55,480 Speaker 1: can tell you this, if somebody was actually getting hands 849 00:49:55,520 --> 00:49:58,160 Speaker 1: e with a a woman at a fraternity party, you 850 00:49:58,160 --> 00:50:01,360 Speaker 1: would have much rather had buck sex did in the room. 851 00:50:01,480 --> 00:50:04,000 Speaker 1: Then as reclined in the room to defend her honor. 852 00:50:04,160 --> 00:50:07,319 Speaker 1: That much. I can promise you, you you know Klein and 853 00:50:07,400 --> 00:50:10,160 Speaker 1: his ILK, if they would, they would absolutely they would 854 00:50:10,160 --> 00:50:13,120 Speaker 1: file a report with the Dean. I'd actually step in 855 00:50:13,120 --> 00:50:14,680 Speaker 1: and do something about it. And I actually have a 856 00:50:15,360 --> 00:50:16,799 Speaker 1: I mean, I can tell you stories. I have a 857 00:50:16,800 --> 00:50:22,239 Speaker 1: background of having to step in and occasionally do something 858 00:50:22,280 --> 00:50:24,800 Speaker 1: about it. You know, the buck can be surprisingly fierce 859 00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:28,239 Speaker 1: when challenged, kind of like a honey badger. But I 860 00:50:28,600 --> 00:50:30,719 Speaker 1: just I wanted to share that with you. For a 861 00:50:30,760 --> 00:50:34,719 Speaker 1: brief moment, I got more on these allegations. Why are 862 00:50:34,760 --> 00:50:37,080 Speaker 1: they reporting on rumors as though they're really Oh, in 863 00:50:37,080 --> 00:50:38,719 Speaker 1: the memory, I didn't even get into the memory. You 864 00:50:38,719 --> 00:50:41,279 Speaker 1: know what, we'll do memory when we come back the 865 00:50:41,280 --> 00:50:43,279 Speaker 1: truth about memory when it comes to witnesses. I know, 866 00:50:43,360 --> 00:50:46,359 Speaker 1: I lost track of that for a moment, and then well, 867 00:50:47,520 --> 00:50:50,279 Speaker 1: isn't that doesn't that tell you something? I lost track 868 00:50:50,320 --> 00:50:54,239 Speaker 1: of my memory segment? And then we'll discuss these allegations 869 00:50:54,239 --> 00:50:57,520 Speaker 1: that are really rumors being reported as as news stories 870 00:50:58,160 --> 00:51:02,640 Speaker 1: and questions of or issues of fact when they are not. 871 00:51:02,840 --> 00:51:06,440 Speaker 1: That's coming up and the face of multiple allegations against 872 00:51:06,520 --> 00:51:10,320 Speaker 1: Judge kavan Or, the FBI should reopen the background check investigation, 873 00:51:11,040 --> 00:51:13,920 Speaker 1: and we should conduct a hearing where the appropriate witnesses 874 00:51:13,920 --> 00:51:16,719 Speaker 1: are called in respect given both to the accuser and 875 00:51:16,800 --> 00:51:21,240 Speaker 1: the accused. Anything less will be reviewed will be viewed 876 00:51:21,280 --> 00:51:25,040 Speaker 1: by the American people. And I believe judged by history 877 00:51:25,280 --> 00:51:28,480 Speaker 1: as a stain on Republicans in the Senate and a 878 00:51:28,600 --> 00:51:34,200 Speaker 1: stain on the integrity of the Majesty of the Supreme Court. Well, 879 00:51:34,239 --> 00:51:38,920 Speaker 1: I think Chuck Schumer's a stain. So there's that. Uh. 880 00:51:39,160 --> 00:51:42,160 Speaker 1: But this notion the FBI should reopen the investigation. You know, 881 00:51:42,239 --> 00:51:46,240 Speaker 1: we we have heard liberals talk about many times about 882 00:51:46,280 --> 00:51:50,600 Speaker 1: how eyewitness testimony is unreliable. Usually this is when they 883 00:51:50,600 --> 00:51:53,120 Speaker 1: are using DNA evidence via the Innocence Project to get 884 00:51:53,120 --> 00:51:57,120 Speaker 1: people off for various crimes. Uh. And and sometimes to 885 00:51:57,200 --> 00:51:58,880 Speaker 1: get people off like in the case of the Central 886 00:51:58,880 --> 00:52:01,879 Speaker 1: Park jog is where I think it's I think the 887 00:52:01,960 --> 00:52:07,560 Speaker 1: exoneration is incredibly dubious. But we know that memory fades 888 00:52:07,600 --> 00:52:11,000 Speaker 1: over time. And one of the recurring themes that you 889 00:52:11,080 --> 00:52:15,040 Speaker 1: can see from from different cases where someone has been 890 00:52:15,120 --> 00:52:18,200 Speaker 1: has been wrongly convicted, which does happen and is terrible. 891 00:52:18,680 --> 00:52:21,279 Speaker 1: It's one of the worst things in a society that 892 00:52:21,400 --> 00:52:23,560 Speaker 1: prides itself on justice and law and order. One of 893 00:52:23,640 --> 00:52:26,960 Speaker 1: the worst things that can happen is the state locking 894 00:52:27,000 --> 00:52:30,920 Speaker 1: you up, taking away your freedom, ruining your life with 895 00:52:31,000 --> 00:52:34,719 Speaker 1: no cause. So that's why you know better that this 896 00:52:34,760 --> 00:52:38,880 Speaker 1: notion we have of better a number of guilty go 897 00:52:39,000 --> 00:52:40,879 Speaker 1: free than one innocent man goes to prison. I think 898 00:52:40,880 --> 00:52:45,880 Speaker 1: that's very important for us. But this this this idea 899 00:52:45,920 --> 00:52:48,320 Speaker 1: that memory will improve, or that that that the second 900 00:52:48,320 --> 00:52:54,240 Speaker 1: accuser here, Ramirez, spent six days talking to her lawyers, 901 00:52:54,280 --> 00:52:56,520 Speaker 1: and that that kind of jobs. Remember her lawyers weren't there. 902 00:52:56,560 --> 00:52:59,080 Speaker 1: They don't know anything. So her lawyers are helping her 903 00:52:59,120 --> 00:53:02,000 Speaker 1: reconstruct the memory or the lawyers trying to understand what 904 00:53:02,080 --> 00:53:06,000 Speaker 1: her risk of defamation is, meaning could she be legally 905 00:53:06,040 --> 00:53:09,440 Speaker 1: liable or could she get caught perjuring herself based on 906 00:53:09,520 --> 00:53:13,080 Speaker 1: these memories that she's saying. Also very noteworthy of the 907 00:53:13,080 --> 00:53:15,160 Speaker 1: New York Time. Well, I'll get into the reporting on 908 00:53:15,200 --> 00:53:19,080 Speaker 1: this in a moment after the break, But it is 909 00:53:19,120 --> 00:53:23,759 Speaker 1: a it is a constant in the files of the 910 00:53:23,840 --> 00:53:26,600 Speaker 1: Innocence Project and these other groups that try to overturn 911 00:53:26,680 --> 00:53:31,040 Speaker 1: sentences that people get sent away for life, sometimes put 912 00:53:31,080 --> 00:53:34,840 Speaker 1: on death row based on eyewitness testimony. That is wrong 913 00:53:35,360 --> 00:53:37,840 Speaker 1: and it's not that the eyewitness was lying, that the 914 00:53:37,840 --> 00:53:41,319 Speaker 1: eyewitness misremembered. In fact, there are cases. There was a 915 00:53:41,320 --> 00:53:44,239 Speaker 1: case that was written about recently where a young girl 916 00:53:44,400 --> 00:53:47,680 Speaker 1: was grabbed by two guys. So you know, here we'll 917 00:53:47,680 --> 00:53:50,360 Speaker 1: talk about a very horrific, very real sexual assault. Grabbed 918 00:53:50,360 --> 00:53:52,000 Speaker 1: by two guys. They took her driving. She had been 919 00:53:52,000 --> 00:53:53,800 Speaker 1: at a party. She was I think sixteen or seventeen. 920 00:53:53,840 --> 00:53:57,440 Speaker 1: They were roughly her age, and they sexually assaulted her, 921 00:53:58,040 --> 00:54:01,279 Speaker 1: and she she went to the police right away. She 922 00:54:01,400 --> 00:54:04,520 Speaker 1: said that one of the two guys was the wrong guy. 923 00:54:05,239 --> 00:54:08,120 Speaker 1: She identified somebody who was at the party with a 924 00:54:08,160 --> 00:54:10,200 Speaker 1: hundred other people while she was out driving with the 925 00:54:10,200 --> 00:54:13,239 Speaker 1: two other guys. But she was traumatized. And so that 926 00:54:13,280 --> 00:54:17,440 Speaker 1: can happen right away, you're gonna tell me that thirty 927 00:54:17,520 --> 00:54:20,160 Speaker 1: years later. This woman who says she's not sure, I'm 928 00:54:20,120 --> 00:54:22,440 Speaker 1: talking now about the exposure one. Never mind, I think 929 00:54:22,440 --> 00:54:24,719 Speaker 1: it's also possible for blass Ford. But the one who 930 00:54:24,760 --> 00:54:27,600 Speaker 1: says she's not even sure if it was Kavanaugh, and 931 00:54:27,600 --> 00:54:29,279 Speaker 1: we're supposed to take this is some kind of a 932 00:54:29,320 --> 00:54:33,200 Speaker 1: real allegation. We're supposed to take this is something that 933 00:54:33,360 --> 00:54:40,839 Speaker 1: is merits FBI investigation. No, when it comes to innocence. 934 00:54:40,960 --> 00:54:45,840 Speaker 1: On the left, they will challenge eyewitness testimony in so 935 00:54:45,920 --> 00:54:49,120 Speaker 1: many ways, and and in many cases rightfully so. But 936 00:54:50,040 --> 00:54:53,399 Speaker 1: now they'll pretend that eyewitness testimony that's not even eyewitness 937 00:54:53,880 --> 00:54:58,560 Speaker 1: testimony is sacrosanct. Right, you cannot challenge that this is 938 00:54:58,600 --> 00:55:01,399 Speaker 1: all there needs to be. They the women in question here, 939 00:55:01,440 --> 00:55:04,680 Speaker 1: the two women accusers with very shaky stories, and they're 940 00:55:04,680 --> 00:55:08,840 Speaker 1: referring to additional people as witnesses who heard a rumor 941 00:55:08,880 --> 00:55:13,800 Speaker 1: that maybe kind of sounded like this. That's not witnessing anything. 942 00:55:14,239 --> 00:55:18,319 Speaker 1: That's a rumor, and rumors are, as we all know, 943 00:55:18,480 --> 00:55:22,320 Speaker 1: from being normal human beings, often false and based on nothing. 944 00:55:23,440 --> 00:55:25,239 Speaker 1: But this is all part of the strategy, It is 945 00:55:25,280 --> 00:55:27,760 Speaker 1: all part of the con It is is a smear tactic, 946 00:55:27,800 --> 00:55:30,640 Speaker 1: as we know, uh moral mission and the way that 947 00:55:30,680 --> 00:55:35,839 Speaker 1: they've constructed these allegations in just a moment, actually has 948 00:55:35,880 --> 00:55:39,440 Speaker 1: this been uh for the girls? For your family? What 949 00:55:39,440 --> 00:55:41,719 Speaker 1: what have you guys? Give us whatever window you feel 950 00:55:41,760 --> 00:55:43,920 Speaker 1: comfortable of saying about what this has been like for 951 00:55:43,960 --> 00:55:49,759 Speaker 1: you as a family. This it's very difficult, it's very 952 00:55:49,880 --> 00:55:53,919 Speaker 1: difficult to have these conversations with their children, which we've 953 00:55:53,920 --> 00:55:58,760 Speaker 1: had to have um, some broader terms for our youngest, 954 00:55:59,040 --> 00:56:03,120 Speaker 1: but they know it's bread and they know the truth, 955 00:56:03,239 --> 00:56:05,640 Speaker 1: and we told them at the very beginning of this 956 00:56:05,680 --> 00:56:08,640 Speaker 1: process this will be not fun. Sometimes you're going to 957 00:56:08,760 --> 00:56:12,799 Speaker 1: hear things that people feel strongly, and you need to 958 00:56:12,800 --> 00:56:18,600 Speaker 1: know that. And just remember, you know your dad. She's 959 00:56:18,640 --> 00:56:22,680 Speaker 1: receiving death threats. That is the wife of Judge Kavanaugh. 960 00:56:22,880 --> 00:56:28,440 Speaker 1: She is receiving death threats, as are her children. We 961 00:56:28,560 --> 00:56:31,160 Speaker 1: often hear about the accusers death threats, meaning the death 962 00:56:31,160 --> 00:56:33,359 Speaker 1: threats against the accusers. We do not hear nearly as 963 00:56:33,440 --> 00:56:38,440 Speaker 1: much about the death threats against Kavanaugh's family, including his 964 00:56:38,440 --> 00:56:42,799 Speaker 1: his young kids. It goes without saying anyone who would 965 00:56:42,800 --> 00:56:46,480 Speaker 1: make a death threat to to to anybody that they 966 00:56:46,560 --> 00:56:49,399 Speaker 1: do not know and do not have, you know, yeah, 967 00:56:49,440 --> 00:56:51,080 Speaker 1: what I would I make a death threat to somebody 968 00:56:51,120 --> 00:56:53,800 Speaker 1: if they were you know, an imminent harmed or imminent 969 00:56:53,800 --> 00:56:55,680 Speaker 1: threat to someone in my family. Sure, but that's what 970 00:56:55,719 --> 00:56:57,319 Speaker 1: a normal person would do. And anyone it makes a 971 00:56:57,320 --> 00:57:00,520 Speaker 1: death threat against a public figure over politics is a ycopath. 972 00:57:01,280 --> 00:57:04,919 Speaker 1: Anybody who does it. It's I'm amazed at how much 973 00:57:04,960 --> 00:57:06,799 Speaker 1: now because the Internet age we live in, people do 974 00:57:06,880 --> 00:57:09,200 Speaker 1: this all the time. And it's disgusting. But then again, 975 00:57:09,239 --> 00:57:11,920 Speaker 1: there are Blue Check journalist running around calling Kavanaugh rapist, 976 00:57:12,120 --> 00:57:14,600 Speaker 1: which he's not even accused of doing. Why don't they 977 00:57:14,640 --> 00:57:16,920 Speaker 1: just say Kavanaugh is also a spy for the Russians. 978 00:57:16,920 --> 00:57:20,000 Speaker 1: I mean, they're just making stuff up. But if we're 979 00:57:20,000 --> 00:57:24,760 Speaker 1: going to look at, you know, the the collateral damage 980 00:57:24,800 --> 00:57:31,720 Speaker 1: here of the left's maniacal anti Kavanaugh strategy, we should 981 00:57:31,720 --> 00:57:33,360 Speaker 1: at least be willing to talk about what it's doing 982 00:57:33,400 --> 00:57:37,640 Speaker 1: to his family as well. And I've been so pleased 983 00:57:37,680 --> 00:57:41,040 Speaker 1: to see. I mean a lot of a lot of conservatives, 984 00:57:41,080 --> 00:57:43,680 Speaker 1: including some who are not typically big defenders of the 985 00:57:43,720 --> 00:57:47,760 Speaker 1: Trump administration, but they've just been They've just been warriors 986 00:57:47,760 --> 00:57:50,080 Speaker 1: on this issue. I mean, you know, the Shields High 987 00:57:50,080 --> 00:57:56,280 Speaker 1: Club on Kavanaugh. You know, Matt Walsh, uh and Culter obviously, 988 00:57:57,320 --> 00:58:02,760 Speaker 1: Ben Shapiro, you know, David Harsani at the Federals, Molly 989 00:58:02,840 --> 00:58:05,400 Speaker 1: Hemingway at the Federalists has been lightening it up. Shawn 990 00:58:05,480 --> 00:58:07,520 Speaker 1: Davis also, I mean, the whole bunch of folks, the 991 00:58:07,520 --> 00:58:09,919 Speaker 1: Federalist I mean, just you know, the people have been 992 00:58:10,040 --> 00:58:13,880 Speaker 1: really my buddy Betty John's Benny Johnson over at the 993 00:58:13,960 --> 00:58:18,320 Speaker 1: Daily Caller that they've been spitting fire on this, and 994 00:58:18,320 --> 00:58:22,040 Speaker 1: I'm so because you're you're you're putting put yourself out there, 995 00:58:22,080 --> 00:58:25,680 Speaker 1: my friends. The the opposition, as we know from what's 996 00:58:25,680 --> 00:58:28,760 Speaker 1: been going on recently, will play so dirty and they're 997 00:58:28,800 --> 00:58:30,919 Speaker 1: looking to take out anybody who stands in their way. 998 00:58:32,640 --> 00:58:34,840 Speaker 1: But there are there is real harm that is being 999 00:58:34,880 --> 00:58:38,200 Speaker 1: done by the people that are pushing these on these lines, 1000 00:58:38,760 --> 00:58:42,160 Speaker 1: and they're they're ruining people's peace of mind, They're ruining 1001 00:58:42,200 --> 00:58:45,000 Speaker 1: their lives. And the only way to prevent that is 1002 00:58:45,040 --> 00:58:50,680 Speaker 1: if Kavanaugh prevails here, meaning that the that the only 1003 00:58:50,680 --> 00:58:53,080 Speaker 1: way that we're not gonna have lives ruin is of 1004 00:58:53,200 --> 00:58:57,560 Speaker 1: Kavanaugh receives justice. And I was I was very pleased 1005 00:58:57,560 --> 00:58:59,800 Speaker 1: to see him say that. You know, he's he's absolutely 1006 00:59:00,240 --> 00:59:04,560 Speaker 1: going anywhere place six. I'm not gonna let false accusations 1007 00:59:04,720 --> 00:59:09,920 Speaker 1: try us out of this process, and um, you know, 1008 00:59:10,160 --> 00:59:13,080 Speaker 1: we're looking for a fair process where I could be 1009 00:59:13,160 --> 00:59:17,360 Speaker 1: heard and defend the my integrity, my lifelong record, my 1010 00:59:17,440 --> 00:59:23,000 Speaker 1: lifelong record of promoting dignity and equality for women, starting 1011 00:59:23,000 --> 00:59:25,880 Speaker 1: with the women who knew me when I was fourteen 1012 00:59:25,960 --> 00:59:32,800 Speaker 1: years old. I'm not going anywhere. That's what I like 1013 00:59:32,880 --> 00:59:36,200 Speaker 1: to hear he's been put through hell, but he's got 1014 00:59:36,200 --> 00:59:40,800 Speaker 1: his shield and it's up high on this. Uh. By 1015 00:59:40,840 --> 00:59:44,120 Speaker 1: the way, this story that was the second one to break, 1016 00:59:44,120 --> 00:59:46,840 Speaker 1: which I can never think of Ronan Pharaoh's reporting the 1017 00:59:46,880 --> 00:59:49,320 Speaker 1: same way because now he's he's he's a leftist, I mean, 1018 00:59:49,360 --> 00:59:51,360 Speaker 1: he's also willing to be. That doesn't mean that he 1019 00:59:51,400 --> 00:59:53,320 Speaker 1: doesn't report true things, folks. I'm not saying all the 1020 00:59:53,400 --> 00:59:55,800 Speaker 1: other reports weren't great. And you know that there are Look, 1021 00:59:55,840 --> 00:59:58,440 Speaker 1: there are plenty of very left wing reporters. I had 1022 00:59:58,480 --> 01:00:03,600 Speaker 1: one on On Rising recently who did interesting work on 1023 01:00:04,000 --> 01:00:06,480 Speaker 1: on private prisons, and I agree with him. I mean, 1024 01:00:06,760 --> 01:00:08,280 Speaker 1: and he did really good work on it. I mean, 1025 01:00:08,320 --> 01:00:10,880 Speaker 1: just because your ideology is one thing or another doesn't 1026 01:00:10,920 --> 01:00:13,000 Speaker 1: mean that you're never telling the truth and never right. 1027 01:00:14,280 --> 01:00:18,040 Speaker 1: But you know, I I gotta say that some of 1028 01:00:18,080 --> 01:00:22,240 Speaker 1: the stuff that we've seen here from the from the 1029 01:00:22,280 --> 01:00:26,280 Speaker 1: New York Times, the Washington Post, even for them, it's disgusting. 1030 01:00:26,320 --> 01:00:31,040 Speaker 1: I mean, even for my expectations of how they would 1031 01:00:31,080 --> 01:00:35,720 Speaker 1: approach this. You know, the New York Times, for example, 1032 01:00:36,440 --> 01:00:40,160 Speaker 1: gave this a kind of auxiliary report, this addendum to 1033 01:00:40,240 --> 01:00:43,440 Speaker 1: the Roman Pharaoh reporting. And Pharaoh has been very defensive 1034 01:00:43,440 --> 01:00:45,040 Speaker 1: about it. But the at the end of the day, 1035 01:00:45,080 --> 01:00:47,720 Speaker 1: he was not able to corroborate key details that you 1036 01:00:47,720 --> 01:00:50,960 Speaker 1: would need. Two And he rushed out the report because 1037 01:00:51,120 --> 01:00:53,760 Speaker 1: he knows that the time and timing is everything. So 1038 01:00:54,120 --> 01:00:56,720 Speaker 1: he turned himself into an oppo researcher. That's what he did. 1039 01:00:56,800 --> 01:00:58,520 Speaker 1: I mean, people can argue about it, but they're wrong. 1040 01:00:58,600 --> 01:01:03,080 Speaker 1: That's what he did. On the New York Times though, 1041 01:01:03,480 --> 01:01:08,960 Speaker 1: and and on Ramirez, I thought this was really interesting. Um, 1042 01:01:09,000 --> 01:01:12,240 Speaker 1: I thought this was something that you know, how did 1043 01:01:12,240 --> 01:01:16,240 Speaker 1: they get around this one? Uh, the witness that's supposed 1044 01:01:16,240 --> 01:01:19,080 Speaker 1: to be the corroboration here is not really a witness. 1045 01:01:19,160 --> 01:01:22,480 Speaker 1: Play place thirteen place Jane, the corroborating witness, which he 1046 01:01:22,560 --> 01:01:25,760 Speaker 1: says has all the details, including Kavanaugh's name, Where did 1047 01:01:25,760 --> 01:01:27,480 Speaker 1: that winn has come from? And where did that witness 1048 01:01:27,480 --> 01:01:31,600 Speaker 1: get the information about this from? If if that person 1049 01:01:31,640 --> 01:01:36,680 Speaker 1: doesn't know Ramirez, Uh, he remembers it from from He 1050 01:01:36,760 --> 01:01:40,120 Speaker 1: was in the same dorm, same same little building on 1051 01:01:40,400 --> 01:01:44,080 Speaker 1: Yale's old campus, and he remembers it clearly. I asked him, 1052 01:01:44,120 --> 01:01:46,720 Speaker 1: you know, because he's gonna be very careful. No, as 1053 01:01:46,760 --> 01:01:49,080 Speaker 1: I've said, he heard it from someone who was there. 1054 01:01:49,800 --> 01:01:54,520 Speaker 1: That's hold hold on, hold positive positive. That's called a rumor. 1055 01:01:55,680 --> 01:01:59,600 Speaker 1: He heard it from someone who was there, That is 1056 01:01:59,640 --> 01:02:02,400 Speaker 1: called a rumor. Was it one of the incredibly drunk 1057 01:02:02,400 --> 01:02:09,200 Speaker 1: people who was at this little gathering. That's not reporting, folks, 1058 01:02:09,240 --> 01:02:13,760 Speaker 1: that's rumormongering. It's just not so. Not only, I mean 1059 01:02:14,120 --> 01:02:17,360 Speaker 1: this is key. Not only are they willing to say 1060 01:02:17,400 --> 01:02:25,160 Speaker 1: that the that the preponderance of the evidence has to 1061 01:02:25,200 --> 01:02:29,680 Speaker 1: be in Kavanaugh's favor um, not all are they willing 1062 01:02:29,720 --> 01:02:34,040 Speaker 1: to say that the uh, that it's on him to 1063 01:02:34,200 --> 01:02:37,160 Speaker 1: prove his innocence, which is the opposite of what it's 1064 01:02:37,160 --> 01:02:40,000 Speaker 1: supposed to be. They're also willing to change basic journalistic standards. 1065 01:02:40,000 --> 01:02:42,920 Speaker 1: I mean, this is folks. Everything is out the window. 1066 01:02:43,080 --> 01:02:49,800 Speaker 1: Everything gets pushed aside because that's how important this is 1067 01:02:49,880 --> 01:02:52,240 Speaker 1: the left. There are no rules right now. But you 1068 01:02:52,240 --> 01:02:54,960 Speaker 1: can say, well, Buck, why you know they're they could storm, 1069 01:02:55,040 --> 01:02:57,520 Speaker 1: You know that they could like mobs the Senate, and 1070 01:02:57,520 --> 01:02:59,640 Speaker 1: and that they could. Why why aren't they engaging just 1071 01:02:59,720 --> 01:03:02,280 Speaker 1: an out right violence, although with Ted Cruz came coming 1072 01:03:02,320 --> 01:03:04,720 Speaker 1: pretty close. Uh, And I would say, well, that's because 1073 01:03:04,720 --> 01:03:09,120 Speaker 1: it would be politically counter their interest to do that, right, 1074 01:03:09,160 --> 01:03:13,840 Speaker 1: They still have to maintain some facade of agreeing with 1075 01:03:14,320 --> 01:03:17,840 Speaker 1: the institutions in the process. Here they're not willing to 1076 01:03:17,920 --> 01:03:21,080 Speaker 1: go the still day quite yet. Here, you know, they're 1077 01:03:21,080 --> 01:03:24,240 Speaker 1: not willing to storm government buildings or anything, because that 1078 01:03:24,240 --> 01:03:27,400 Speaker 1: would work against them. They don't want to tear the 1079 01:03:27,400 --> 01:03:30,440 Speaker 1: government down. They want to control the government, and they 1080 01:03:30,440 --> 01:03:33,479 Speaker 1: want to use propaganda, lies, and smear tactics to do so. 1081 01:03:33,880 --> 01:03:37,120 Speaker 1: They're not going to assault the government. And obviously, although 1082 01:03:37,160 --> 01:03:41,120 Speaker 1: I'm concerned and I have been truly concerned about Judge 1083 01:03:41,200 --> 01:03:44,080 Speaker 1: kavanaugh safety in this whole process, I think that they 1084 01:03:44,120 --> 01:03:47,280 Speaker 1: recognize that anybody on the left who was such a 1085 01:03:47,360 --> 01:03:49,880 Speaker 1: zealot that they would even consider something so horrific as 1086 01:03:49,880 --> 01:03:54,520 Speaker 1: to his to attempt violence against the Supreme Court nominee 1087 01:03:54,640 --> 01:04:01,480 Speaker 1: would destroy any good faith that center people in the 1088 01:04:01,520 --> 01:04:03,160 Speaker 1: center and on the right could ever have towards the 1089 01:04:03,240 --> 01:04:06,040 Speaker 1: left when it comes to the Supreme Court for for centuries, 1090 01:04:06,080 --> 01:04:08,520 Speaker 1: I mean, it would be gone. So that's the only 1091 01:04:08,560 --> 01:04:10,840 Speaker 1: thing that I believe, So the only outer limits of 1092 01:04:10,840 --> 01:04:12,720 Speaker 1: what the progressives are willing to do here. It's not 1093 01:04:13,000 --> 01:04:15,640 Speaker 1: there's no level of dishonor they won't stoop too. There's 1094 01:04:15,640 --> 01:04:17,920 Speaker 1: no level of lies. They won't stoop too, They just 1095 01:04:17,960 --> 01:04:22,600 Speaker 1: won't necessarily engage in in violence or in an acts 1096 01:04:22,640 --> 01:04:26,160 Speaker 1: of of destruction, you know, physical destruction because it would 1097 01:04:26,200 --> 01:04:31,880 Speaker 1: hurt their interests. Um, but they'll they'll light reporting standards 1098 01:04:31,920 --> 01:04:35,040 Speaker 1: on fire like it's a pire. I didn't really mean 1099 01:04:35,080 --> 01:04:36,400 Speaker 1: for that to rhyme, but it did. But you know 1100 01:04:36,440 --> 01:04:40,080 Speaker 1: that they'll just to make a bonfire of journalistic standers. 1101 01:04:40,120 --> 01:04:44,280 Speaker 1: There we go. That's way better, way better. That's the 1102 01:04:44,320 --> 01:04:46,160 Speaker 1: kind of stuff that they're willing to engage in here 1103 01:04:46,200 --> 01:04:49,439 Speaker 1: because it's so important to them. They think so much 1104 01:04:49,520 --> 01:04:52,680 Speaker 1: rides on this. Sorry, and then we had Roman Ronan 1105 01:04:52,680 --> 01:04:55,160 Speaker 1: pharaoh as well. I can continue that clip. We had more. 1106 01:04:55,720 --> 01:04:59,120 Speaker 1: Why did she come forward? She came forward because Senate 1107 01:04:59,200 --> 01:05:04,600 Speaker 1: Democrats again looking at this claim. She came forward because 1108 01:05:04,640 --> 01:05:07,720 Speaker 1: Senate Democrats were looking at this claim. So did Senate 1109 01:05:07,720 --> 01:05:14,040 Speaker 1: Democrats contact her? Senate Democrats oppo research jogged her memory 1110 01:05:14,080 --> 01:05:18,440 Speaker 1: all of a sudden. Nobody believes this is credible. Nobody 1111 01:05:18,480 --> 01:05:22,160 Speaker 1: thinks that. I want to say nobody. I mean that 1112 01:05:22,280 --> 01:05:26,080 Speaker 1: anyone with a rational functioning mind on this issue, who 1113 01:05:26,080 --> 01:05:29,800 Speaker 1: would approach it without all the heated politics of Oh 1114 01:05:29,840 --> 01:05:32,320 Speaker 1: my gosh, he's gonna overturn Roe v. Wade would say, 1115 01:05:32,320 --> 01:05:35,480 Speaker 1: this is if this isn't a lightweight allegation in terms 1116 01:05:35,520 --> 01:05:38,640 Speaker 1: of the evidence, what is someone did something to me? 1117 01:05:39,240 --> 01:05:41,560 Speaker 1: Can you tell us where, when, how, who? Any you 1118 01:05:41,600 --> 01:05:45,080 Speaker 1: know this person did this thing. I can't tell you 1119 01:05:45,240 --> 01:05:47,560 Speaker 1: when exactly had happened. I didn't tell any of the time. 1120 01:05:47,600 --> 01:05:49,320 Speaker 1: There's no evidence that I kept it quiet for a 1121 01:05:49,400 --> 01:05:53,520 Speaker 1: very very long time. Now I understand this is where 1122 01:05:53,520 --> 01:05:55,080 Speaker 1: a lot of people would come out and say, oh, 1123 01:05:55,120 --> 01:05:58,960 Speaker 1: but Buck, this is um you know. The this is 1124 01:05:59,040 --> 01:06:02,320 Speaker 1: when we'll hear about people that won't talk about there. 1125 01:06:02,360 --> 01:06:06,000 Speaker 1: They're they're terrible, uh you know, they're repressed memory and 1126 01:06:06,000 --> 01:06:08,600 Speaker 1: and how it's you know, after a serioussault. You know, 1127 01:06:08,640 --> 01:06:10,360 Speaker 1: we have to separate these two things out for a moment. 1128 01:06:11,240 --> 01:06:15,800 Speaker 1: I I have a hard time believing that a college 1129 01:06:15,840 --> 01:06:20,520 Speaker 1: aged woman who was drunk and had a man exposed 1130 01:06:20,560 --> 01:06:25,439 Speaker 1: himself for a moment, was so traumatized by that mere sight, 1131 01:06:25,520 --> 01:06:28,920 Speaker 1: which is what we are saying, that she wouldn't tell 1132 01:06:28,920 --> 01:06:31,800 Speaker 1: anyone about it. She wouldn't tell campus administrators about it, 1133 01:06:31,840 --> 01:06:35,840 Speaker 1: She wouldn't anything in the universe of that kind of conduct. 1134 01:06:36,400 --> 01:06:39,560 Speaker 1: And everybody that works on a college campus even the 1135 01:06:39,600 --> 01:06:43,120 Speaker 1: eighties would have come right to her side and you know, 1136 01:06:43,200 --> 01:06:44,840 Speaker 1: and there would have been severe punishment I think for 1137 01:06:44,840 --> 01:06:47,840 Speaker 1: the individual involved. And you know, but I don't believe 1138 01:06:47,840 --> 01:06:49,600 Speaker 1: that she was. I'm just telling you what I believe. 1139 01:06:49,640 --> 01:06:51,760 Speaker 1: I don't believe she's so traumatized by that. Well, think 1140 01:06:51,760 --> 01:06:54,400 Speaker 1: about what we're talking about here, the sight of the 1141 01:06:54,600 --> 01:06:58,000 Speaker 1: of a of you know, the male organ. Uh, my 1142 01:06:58,080 --> 01:07:00,520 Speaker 1: understanding is he didn't actually touch her. That would be 1143 01:07:00,880 --> 01:07:03,520 Speaker 1: a slightly different allegation, but my understanding is that he 1144 01:07:03,600 --> 01:07:06,080 Speaker 1: kind of showed her. Whoever this individual was, it was 1145 01:07:06,120 --> 01:07:09,200 Speaker 1: not Brett Kavanaugh. I do not believe that. Uh. And 1146 01:07:09,240 --> 01:07:10,800 Speaker 1: by the way, people say back, well, how can you 1147 01:07:10,800 --> 01:07:12,560 Speaker 1: say you don't believe because I've actually looked at the 1148 01:07:12,600 --> 01:07:14,760 Speaker 1: evidence and there's a lot of evidence that this is bull. 1149 01:07:15,280 --> 01:07:17,800 Speaker 1: If the evidence changes, then I won't believe it's bull. 1150 01:07:18,400 --> 01:07:20,920 Speaker 1: The other side says, there's an accusation with no evidence 1151 01:07:21,040 --> 01:07:23,840 Speaker 1: and they believe it. So, you know, we're supposed to 1152 01:07:23,840 --> 01:07:25,200 Speaker 1: sit around and say, well, let's wait for all the 1153 01:07:25,240 --> 01:07:27,040 Speaker 1: evidence to come in before we come to a judgment. No, 1154 01:07:27,080 --> 01:07:28,920 Speaker 1: there's lots of evidence. The evidence says these women are 1155 01:07:29,960 --> 01:07:34,600 Speaker 1: either lying or they believe something that's not true. So 1156 01:07:34,720 --> 01:07:40,160 Speaker 1: that's that's where we are on this um oh and 1157 01:07:40,280 --> 01:07:42,640 Speaker 1: Ronan Pharaoh's thing. I just want to note, you know 1158 01:07:42,720 --> 01:07:45,760 Speaker 1: that the timing of this. I'm gonna tell you this 1159 01:07:45,880 --> 01:07:47,960 Speaker 1: right now. I almost tweeted this out today and then 1160 01:07:48,000 --> 01:07:49,880 Speaker 1: I didn't because I figured maybe'n getting ahead of myself, 1161 01:07:49,880 --> 01:07:53,360 Speaker 1: because I think Avanati has there's some stuff being said 1162 01:07:53,360 --> 01:07:56,560 Speaker 1: about Avanati's third claim, right he's representing somebody's making the 1163 01:07:56,600 --> 01:07:58,880 Speaker 1: third claim that makes me think that we're not that 1164 01:07:58,880 --> 01:08:02,080 Speaker 1: that might not be it. But I would not be 1165 01:08:02,200 --> 01:08:08,440 Speaker 1: surprised if some very very vague because it's so flimsy 1166 01:08:08,760 --> 01:08:14,160 Speaker 1: allegation emerges Thursday in the morning, or maybe Wednesday night, 1167 01:08:14,200 --> 01:08:18,400 Speaker 1: but Wednesday night or Thursday morning, just in time to 1168 01:08:19,240 --> 01:08:22,840 Speaker 1: uh deep six the hearing to just you know, to 1169 01:08:23,080 --> 01:08:25,920 Speaker 1: push off this hearing on Thursday. And you know what else, 1170 01:08:25,960 --> 01:08:29,479 Speaker 1: I wouldn't be surprised by if the Democrats and their 1171 01:08:29,520 --> 01:08:34,639 Speaker 1: media lackeys, or do I have it backwards, the media 1172 01:08:34,680 --> 01:08:38,479 Speaker 1: and their Democrat lackeys claim that this is just well, 1173 01:08:38,560 --> 01:08:41,280 Speaker 1: it's just you know, the good detective work that everyone's 1174 01:08:41,320 --> 01:08:43,639 Speaker 1: doing on this. Now they're gonna act like This isn't 1175 01:08:43,720 --> 01:08:47,000 Speaker 1: orchestrated that it's all a coincidence and we're all just 1176 01:08:47,040 --> 01:08:49,000 Speaker 1: a bunch of huge morons who can't figure out what's 1177 01:08:49,040 --> 01:08:55,519 Speaker 1: really going on here. You know, folks, this is this 1178 01:08:55,680 --> 01:08:57,240 Speaker 1: is what we were up against. This is how the 1179 01:08:57,240 --> 01:08:59,120 Speaker 1: other side plays the game. Is something you've got it, 1180 01:08:59,120 --> 01:09:03,280 Speaker 1: It's something you gotta um. They have embraced evil with this. 1181 01:09:03,960 --> 01:09:06,040 Speaker 1: They may not recognize it as such, but that's what 1182 01:09:06,160 --> 01:09:09,679 Speaker 1: has happened, and so we are fighting back against evil. 1183 01:09:13,320 --> 01:09:15,720 Speaker 1: I'm not aware of any cabinet members that are even 1184 01:09:15,800 --> 01:09:20,600 Speaker 1: talking about that. It is completely and totally absurd. No 1185 01:09:20,680 --> 01:09:23,320 Speaker 1: discussion with me about the amendment anywhere either. So you 1186 01:09:23,320 --> 01:09:25,800 Speaker 1: can now report that there are two senior leaders that 1187 01:09:25,880 --> 01:09:28,680 Speaker 1: have said that your statement, your question was ludicrous. If 1188 01:09:28,680 --> 01:09:31,120 Speaker 1: it's so ludicrous, why did the Deputy Attorney General have 1189 01:09:31,240 --> 01:09:35,320 Speaker 1: discussions about it behind the scenes. I find I find 1190 01:09:35,360 --> 01:09:38,000 Speaker 1: the question ludicrous. I've been involved. I've been at the 1191 01:09:38,080 --> 01:09:41,320 Speaker 1: center of this administration along with lots of other folks 1192 01:09:41,360 --> 01:09:45,040 Speaker 1: for uh, from virtually day one, I think it was 1193 01:09:45,080 --> 01:09:48,000 Speaker 1: actually day three or four. I've never heard anyone talk 1194 01:09:48,040 --> 01:09:50,960 Speaker 1: about a whisper about it, joke about it in any 1195 01:09:50,960 --> 01:09:53,000 Speaker 1: way I've been in a lot of meetings with a 1196 01:09:53,000 --> 01:09:58,280 Speaker 1: lot of senior officials from this government, juice slapping down 1197 01:09:58,360 --> 01:10:00,640 Speaker 1: this nonsense about the twenty at the moment, I mean, 1198 01:10:00,680 --> 01:10:03,280 Speaker 1: I gotta say, who has been telling you all along? 1199 01:10:03,280 --> 01:10:05,640 Speaker 1: The Pompeios A rock star producer, Mike, I've been pro 1200 01:10:05,800 --> 01:10:08,880 Speaker 1: I've been the pro Pompeo camp since before it was cool. Yes, 1201 01:10:09,560 --> 01:10:12,679 Speaker 1: thank you, sir, thank you. I mean, this guy is legit. 1202 01:10:12,800 --> 01:10:15,240 Speaker 1: He's the real deal. Nicky Haley also good. But you know, 1203 01:10:16,360 --> 01:10:19,120 Speaker 1: I know people are saying buck Nicky Haley. Four. I 1204 01:10:19,479 --> 01:10:22,000 Speaker 1: hear that. I hear that. Look, if if she if 1205 01:10:22,080 --> 01:10:25,400 Speaker 1: she does well with this administration, if she's if she 1206 01:10:25,479 --> 01:10:29,719 Speaker 1: plays ball with Trump on policy and doesn't get caught 1207 01:10:29,800 --> 01:10:32,639 Speaker 1: up in you know, all the all the media love 1208 01:10:32,720 --> 01:10:35,360 Speaker 1: that she's getting at least too caught up too soon, 1209 01:10:35,760 --> 01:10:37,720 Speaker 1: then yeah, I could see that as well. But first 1210 01:10:37,720 --> 01:10:42,120 Speaker 1: of all, anytime anybody calls an Accosta question ludicrous, they've 1211 01:10:42,120 --> 01:10:44,240 Speaker 1: got my vote. So you start with that. I love 1212 01:10:44,280 --> 01:10:46,320 Speaker 1: that that he's just like, your question is ludicrous, man, 1213 01:10:47,000 --> 01:10:48,280 Speaker 1: you know, And that's the way we need to start 1214 01:10:48,280 --> 01:10:51,120 Speaker 1: referring to these imbeciles, you know, instead of saying, oh, 1215 01:10:51,160 --> 01:10:53,519 Speaker 1: my gosh, like you really believe what the president is 1216 01:10:53,640 --> 01:10:56,240 Speaker 1: lamentarian candidate for the Kremlin and for Russia's be like, 1217 01:10:56,280 --> 01:10:57,960 Speaker 1: how do you are? You such a fool? You're such 1218 01:10:57,960 --> 01:11:00,200 Speaker 1: a clown. This is when I was talking talking to 1219 01:11:00,240 --> 01:11:02,719 Speaker 1: the President about this in the Oval office. That's his attitude. 1220 01:11:02,720 --> 01:11:05,920 Speaker 1: He's like, these people are out of their minds. They 1221 01:11:05,920 --> 01:11:07,400 Speaker 1: are out of their minds. The ones who think that 1222 01:11:07,439 --> 01:11:11,440 Speaker 1: I had some plot with Putin, do Facebook puppets and 1223 01:11:11,439 --> 01:11:15,160 Speaker 1: and do some online I mean, really think of the 1224 01:11:15,240 --> 01:11:20,000 Speaker 1: level of risk and also the level of sophistication of 1225 01:11:20,120 --> 01:11:22,320 Speaker 1: the communication plan just to get that going that it 1226 01:11:22,320 --> 01:11:26,400 Speaker 1: would have required. It's just it's complete nonsense. By the way, 1227 01:11:26,560 --> 01:11:30,519 Speaker 1: Papadopolis you heard it here first, folks, Papadopopolis is coming 1228 01:11:30,520 --> 01:11:34,840 Speaker 1: out saying he wants stuff declassified because when you when 1229 01:11:34,880 --> 01:11:37,439 Speaker 1: you see what they knew about Papadopolis, I'm telling you 1230 01:11:37,439 --> 01:11:39,519 Speaker 1: and producer Mike, we should cut this as a segment 1231 01:11:39,560 --> 01:11:40,960 Speaker 1: to hold for later because I'm this is gonna be 1232 01:11:40,960 --> 01:11:43,280 Speaker 1: and I told you so. When you see what the 1233 01:11:43,320 --> 01:11:46,320 Speaker 1: federal government knew about Papadopolis, I mean, what the FBI 1234 01:11:46,400 --> 01:11:50,360 Speaker 1: and d through through their surveillance of the Trump campaign 1235 01:11:51,040 --> 01:11:56,160 Speaker 1: that they even pretended for a moment, you know, many 1236 01:11:56,200 --> 01:11:59,519 Speaker 1: many months later, that he was a legitimate national security 1237 01:11:59,520 --> 01:12:01,840 Speaker 1: in Trace said, oh yeah, Papadopoulos was the reason to 1238 01:12:01,920 --> 01:12:06,880 Speaker 1: get this investigation started. They should be embarrassed and ashamed. 1239 01:12:08,360 --> 01:12:11,160 Speaker 1: What I've been told is that, and this is all 1240 01:12:11,320 --> 01:12:14,240 Speaker 1: very you know, it's still very sensitive, not yet not 1241 01:12:14,320 --> 01:12:17,519 Speaker 1: yet out there. But they had information on Popadopolis that 1242 01:12:17,600 --> 01:12:20,880 Speaker 1: was exculpatory in terms of Russia collusion, meaning he had 1243 01:12:20,920 --> 01:12:23,040 Speaker 1: he had no interest in Russia collusion at all, and 1244 01:12:23,080 --> 01:12:27,600 Speaker 1: they held it. That is a cardinal sin. For a 1245 01:12:27,640 --> 01:12:31,280 Speaker 1: federal prosecutor or, for any federal agency to withhold exculpatory 1246 01:12:31,479 --> 01:12:34,080 Speaker 1: evidence against the U. S. Citizen in any kind of 1247 01:12:34,080 --> 01:12:37,400 Speaker 1: an investigative or criminal proceeding. That's as dirty and gross 1248 01:12:37,400 --> 01:12:39,400 Speaker 1: as it gets. I think that happened. I think Rod 1249 01:12:39,479 --> 01:12:42,960 Speaker 1: Rosenstein knows, and they're desperate to keep this stuff out 1250 01:12:43,000 --> 01:12:46,680 Speaker 1: of the public eye. But the twenty five Amendment, you know, 1251 01:12:47,200 --> 01:12:50,600 Speaker 1: this is how you gotta deal with these anti Trumper's, 1252 01:12:50,720 --> 01:12:53,800 Speaker 1: my friends. You gotta just you gotta just start to say, 1253 01:12:53,840 --> 01:12:57,519 Speaker 1: you know what, man, you're you're just nuts. I can't 1254 01:12:57,560 --> 01:13:01,000 Speaker 1: even really engage too deep in this conversation because you're 1255 01:13:01,000 --> 01:13:03,559 Speaker 1: not making any sense, you're not living in the real world, 1256 01:13:04,040 --> 01:13:06,479 Speaker 1: and you're just pursuing a political agenda at the expense 1257 01:13:06,520 --> 01:13:10,960 Speaker 1: of your own credibility and and and any anything that 1258 01:13:10,960 --> 01:13:13,160 Speaker 1: anybody could ever construe as being reasonable. But we have 1259 01:13:13,200 --> 01:13:16,040 Speaker 1: more Rosenstein. Let's talk about the latest on Rosenstein that's 1260 01:13:16,040 --> 01:13:22,200 Speaker 1: coming up. Google engages in political censorship, Facebook engages in 1261 01:13:22,240 --> 01:13:27,600 Speaker 1: political censorship, Twitter ditto. Okay, how many of these platforms 1262 01:13:27,960 --> 01:13:31,040 Speaker 1: have to be out it as places where there's left 1263 01:13:31,040 --> 01:13:35,200 Speaker 1: wing politics at work before we all realize that we 1264 01:13:35,240 --> 01:13:37,920 Speaker 1: should start building our own we should start going somewhere else. 1265 01:13:38,120 --> 01:13:39,479 Speaker 1: I've talked to you about it before on the show, 1266 01:13:39,479 --> 01:13:42,520 Speaker 1: and guess what now, I've partnered up with a company 1267 01:13:42,560 --> 01:13:46,200 Speaker 1: that really is doing it, snippy dot com. Snippy dot 1268 01:13:46,240 --> 01:13:48,800 Speaker 1: com is a new social media platform where there is 1269 01:13:48,840 --> 01:13:54,120 Speaker 1: no censorship, there's no conversational health monitoring. You get to post, 1270 01:13:54,280 --> 01:13:57,439 Speaker 1: you get to engage with people, post photos, write your 1271 01:13:57,479 --> 01:14:00,120 Speaker 1: own stuff, follow writers you like, whatever it is that 1272 01:14:00,200 --> 01:14:02,599 Speaker 1: you wanted you to share your thoughts because you should 1273 01:14:02,680 --> 01:14:05,360 Speaker 1: be heard and you shouldn't have to worry about shadow 1274 01:14:05,400 --> 01:14:08,360 Speaker 1: banning or being pulled off of somebody's list, or any 1275 01:14:08,360 --> 01:14:10,679 Speaker 1: of the other stuff that's going on snippy dot com. 1276 01:14:10,720 --> 01:14:13,040 Speaker 1: Totally free to join, free to post all free stuff 1277 01:14:13,400 --> 01:14:17,719 Speaker 1: snippy dot com check it out team legally Ron Rosen 1278 01:14:17,920 --> 01:14:21,280 Speaker 1: Rod Rosenstein was at the center, he of firing Comy 1279 01:14:21,360 --> 01:14:24,360 Speaker 1: with his letter, and yet Mueller is investigating the firing Comy, 1280 01:14:24,439 --> 01:14:28,160 Speaker 1: which is indirectly investigating himself. He signed a fist, a 1281 01:14:28,240 --> 01:14:33,800 Speaker 1: warrant that's going to come up under somebody's investigation. He 1282 01:14:33,920 --> 01:14:37,920 Speaker 1: was the adjudicator of information that was released by the 1283 01:14:38,040 --> 01:14:41,280 Speaker 1: d o J to the House Intelligence Committee and other committees. 1284 01:14:41,720 --> 01:14:45,240 Speaker 1: He was involved in Uranium one and he saw no collusion. 1285 01:14:45,320 --> 01:14:49,000 Speaker 1: Yet he's basically entrusting Mueller to look for collusion where 1286 01:14:49,000 --> 01:14:52,760 Speaker 1: it wasn't. He was in the Hilly email scandal, and 1287 01:14:52,840 --> 01:14:56,200 Speaker 1: yet he said that there was no violation of confidentiality 1288 01:14:56,360 --> 01:15:00,000 Speaker 1: or classified information. Yet he helped get an indictment against 1289 01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:02,800 Speaker 1: General Cartwright for that for leaking. So he's got a 1290 01:15:02,800 --> 01:15:05,479 Speaker 1: lot of conflict of interest. And I think that Donald 1291 01:15:05,520 --> 01:15:07,640 Speaker 1: Trump should just say, you know, Rod, you're doing a 1292 01:15:07,680 --> 01:15:10,439 Speaker 1: great job. There's thousands of things you can do at 1293 01:15:10,439 --> 01:15:13,280 Speaker 1: the Justice Department, but you're not going to get yourself 1294 01:15:13,320 --> 01:15:16,160 Speaker 1: into a situation where you have these conflict of interests. 1295 01:15:16,320 --> 01:15:18,200 Speaker 1: If you want to resign and go write a book 1296 01:15:18,200 --> 01:15:21,799 Speaker 1: where Michael Wolfe and Alma Rossa left off, go ahead, 1297 01:15:21,880 --> 01:15:25,320 Speaker 1: but we like you just do something else, but you're 1298 01:15:25,320 --> 01:15:27,519 Speaker 1: not going to be involved in the state anymore. And 1299 01:15:27,520 --> 01:15:29,840 Speaker 1: that would be a lot better than firing him. We're 1300 01:15:29,840 --> 01:15:32,200 Speaker 1: pushing very hard to make sure that he comes in 1301 01:15:32,439 --> 01:15:36,519 Speaker 1: under oath to Congress and UH and let the American 1302 01:15:36,520 --> 01:15:39,479 Speaker 1: people judge for themselves. I can tell you that if 1303 01:15:39,520 --> 01:15:42,200 Speaker 1: he does not UH, there are a number of us 1304 01:15:42,240 --> 01:15:45,880 Speaker 1: that are standing by really with impeachment documents and said 1305 01:15:46,120 --> 01:15:52,640 Speaker 1: we cannot have this kind of activity continue at d J. Rosenstein. 1306 01:15:54,040 --> 01:15:58,680 Speaker 1: Rod Rosenstein a a case in point of why you 1307 01:15:58,760 --> 01:16:04,559 Speaker 1: cannot allow Democrat hacked lawyers who are appointed to positions 1308 01:16:04,600 --> 01:16:09,599 Speaker 1: of power by Obama to stay behind in very prominent 1309 01:16:09,640 --> 01:16:13,360 Speaker 1: positions of authority in the Department of Justice with a 1310 01:16:13,400 --> 01:16:18,120 Speaker 1: Republican president period, but more than any other president this one, 1311 01:16:18,880 --> 01:16:24,120 Speaker 1: it simply cannot be allowed to happen again. Um, there 1312 01:16:24,160 --> 01:16:28,639 Speaker 1: has to be a full political house cleaning with these 1313 01:16:28,720 --> 01:16:30,800 Speaker 1: kinds of sensitive positions. You know, if you want to 1314 01:16:30,880 --> 01:16:35,439 Speaker 1: leave behind some some Bernie Sanders supporting priest drivers in 1315 01:16:35,439 --> 01:16:41,679 Speaker 1: the Department of Commerce. That's your call. But Rosenstein and 1316 01:16:41,800 --> 01:16:44,439 Speaker 1: uh and some of these others that we've seen in 1317 01:16:44,439 --> 01:16:50,760 Speaker 1: the so called hashtag resistance are a reminder of how 1318 01:16:50,800 --> 01:16:52,280 Speaker 1: important it is to have the right people in the 1319 01:16:52,360 --> 01:16:56,799 Speaker 1: right places for a new administration. Rosenstein should be fired 1320 01:16:56,920 --> 01:17:00,559 Speaker 1: in terms of his performance, but he should not be 1321 01:17:00,680 --> 01:17:03,599 Speaker 1: fired because we don't want to turn him into a martyr. 1322 01:17:03,680 --> 01:17:05,360 Speaker 1: You know, this is what we've been discussing this week, 1323 01:17:05,400 --> 01:17:08,519 Speaker 1: and that's definitely the case. Anie McCarthy over at National 1324 01:17:08,560 --> 01:17:13,040 Speaker 1: Review has some really and look, Andy, we wanted to 1325 01:17:13,040 --> 01:17:15,200 Speaker 1: have Andy on it. He's been very busy lately, but 1326 01:17:15,240 --> 01:17:16,880 Speaker 1: we always reach out whenever I talked about one of 1327 01:17:16,880 --> 01:17:20,280 Speaker 1: his articles. Uh, you know, I think Andy's as good 1328 01:17:20,280 --> 01:17:22,919 Speaker 1: as it gets in the game of of analyzing this stuff. 1329 01:17:23,640 --> 01:17:26,120 Speaker 1: Obviously other people realize that too, not just National Review 1330 01:17:26,160 --> 01:17:28,000 Speaker 1: with Fox News. I mean, he's doing a great job 1331 01:17:28,600 --> 01:17:30,479 Speaker 1: and really helping the country. I mean we have a 1332 01:17:30,479 --> 01:17:32,559 Speaker 1: greater understanding of these things because of a lot of 1333 01:17:32,600 --> 01:17:37,800 Speaker 1: Andy's research and writing. And he just crushes Rosenstein in 1334 01:17:37,840 --> 01:17:41,599 Speaker 1: a piece day. I mean, he absolutely it's actually from 1335 01:17:41,800 --> 01:17:46,720 Speaker 1: two days ago, absolutely crushes him. Rod Rosenstein's resistance is 1336 01:17:46,760 --> 01:17:52,160 Speaker 1: the piece weasel words, weasel moves from an emotionally overwrought 1337 01:17:52,360 --> 01:17:58,479 Speaker 1: deputy Attorney general eager to ingratiate himself with Democrats. And 1338 01:17:58,520 --> 01:18:02,240 Speaker 1: he writes Rod Rosenstein and is even a weasel when 1339 01:18:02,280 --> 01:18:07,160 Speaker 1: repudiating his weasel moves. Here is the Deputy Attorney General's 1340 01:18:07,320 --> 01:18:11,360 Speaker 1: non denial denial of a New York Times report Friday 1341 01:18:11,400 --> 01:18:14,200 Speaker 1: that he brainstormed about ousting President Trump in May. Of 1342 01:18:16,200 --> 01:18:19,760 Speaker 1: The New York Times story is inaccurate and factually incorrect. 1343 01:18:19,960 --> 01:18:22,880 Speaker 1: He says, I will not further comment on a story 1344 01:18:22,960 --> 01:18:27,000 Speaker 1: based on anonymous sources who are obviously biased against the 1345 01:18:27,040 --> 01:18:31,040 Speaker 1: Department on advancing their own personal agenda. But let me 1346 01:18:31,080 --> 01:18:34,240 Speaker 1: be clear about this, based on my personal dealings with 1347 01:18:34,240 --> 01:18:39,160 Speaker 1: the president, there is no basis to invoke the amendment. 1348 01:18:39,479 --> 01:18:41,360 Speaker 1: And then Andy goes into parts this little bit and 1349 01:18:41,360 --> 01:18:45,840 Speaker 1: this is really interesting, and he writes the Time story 1350 01:18:45,920 --> 01:18:50,960 Speaker 1: is inaccurate and factually incorrect. Rosenstein won't say exactly what 1351 01:18:51,160 --> 01:18:53,840 Speaker 1: is wrong in the report. He is careful not to 1352 01:18:53,880 --> 01:18:55,840 Speaker 1: say the gist of the report is wrong. He just 1353 01:18:55,920 --> 01:18:59,240 Speaker 1: hopes that if he sounds indignant enough, you will hear it. 1354 01:18:59,320 --> 01:19:02,360 Speaker 1: That way, the Times may have gotten a few details wrong, 1355 01:19:02,400 --> 01:19:05,880 Speaker 1: but you can bet the stories essentially true. You can't 1356 01:19:05,920 --> 01:19:09,800 Speaker 1: trust anonymous sources. This from the guy who, in approving 1357 01:19:09,840 --> 01:19:14,200 Speaker 1: a Fizer warrant application to spy on an American political campaign, 1358 01:19:14,600 --> 01:19:18,599 Speaker 1: relied on anonymous sources, some of them Russian operatives, who 1359 01:19:18,680 --> 01:19:22,280 Speaker 1: were channeling information through a foreign spy from whom the 1360 01:19:22,320 --> 01:19:25,400 Speaker 1: Justice Department continued to take information even after telling a 1361 01:19:25,439 --> 01:19:28,040 Speaker 1: federal court that the spy had been cut out of 1362 01:19:28,040 --> 01:19:32,320 Speaker 1: the investigation for leaking to the media. And my favorite, 1363 01:19:32,479 --> 01:19:35,400 Speaker 1: Rosenstein knows there is no basis to invoke the twenty 1364 01:19:35,439 --> 01:19:38,720 Speaker 1: fifth Amendment against President Trump. Of course, that does not 1365 01:19:38,800 --> 01:19:41,840 Speaker 1: respond to what the Times report actually says, which is 1366 01:19:41,880 --> 01:19:45,320 Speaker 1: that back in May of seventeen, he was an emotional 1367 01:19:45,360 --> 01:19:49,200 Speaker 1: wreck because Democrats were being mean to him. Rosenstein urged 1368 01:19:49,240 --> 01:19:51,479 Speaker 1: that there might at that time be a basis to 1369 01:19:51,479 --> 01:19:53,800 Speaker 1: remove the president under the twenty fifth Amendment if he 1370 01:19:53,840 --> 01:19:55,800 Speaker 1: could get enough top officials to agree that Trump was 1371 01:19:55,880 --> 01:19:59,840 Speaker 1: unfit to discharge his duties. Um, and then, I mean 1372 01:20:00,000 --> 01:20:04,400 Speaker 1: Andy goes on into some length here, but he here. 1373 01:20:04,520 --> 01:20:09,320 Speaker 1: Here are the highlights about why Rosenstein is basically somebody 1374 01:20:09,320 --> 01:20:11,160 Speaker 1: who never should have had this job, and his and 1375 01:20:11,280 --> 01:20:15,280 Speaker 1: his and as a resistance figure. Uh, you know, it 1376 01:20:15,280 --> 01:20:20,759 Speaker 1: comes to grousing about Trump's unfitness. Why are tapping the president, 1377 01:20:20,840 --> 01:20:24,720 Speaker 1: invoking the twenty five Amendment, appeasing democratic demands for a 1378 01:20:24,760 --> 01:20:30,720 Speaker 1: special counsel um an investigation supported by the Steel dossier. 1379 01:20:31,360 --> 01:20:33,000 Speaker 1: I mean, you look at all of these things, and 1380 01:20:33,000 --> 01:20:37,360 Speaker 1: what you find is that Rosenstein is at the center 1381 01:20:37,760 --> 01:20:41,160 Speaker 1: of all the ills that have been deviled the Trump 1382 01:20:41,200 --> 01:20:46,479 Speaker 1: administration regarding Russia collusion, that that Rosenstein himself is much 1383 01:20:46,520 --> 01:20:49,960 Speaker 1: to blame here for a lot of what has gone on, 1384 01:20:50,120 --> 01:20:52,599 Speaker 1: a lot of what we have seen when it comes 1385 01:20:52,640 --> 01:20:57,360 Speaker 1: to the the the Russia collusion fantasy. And yet he 1386 01:20:57,439 --> 01:20:59,640 Speaker 1: cannot be fired because of the way he has bureaucratic 1387 01:20:59,640 --> 01:21:02,599 Speaker 1: the manu for to this position where if he is fired, 1388 01:21:03,680 --> 01:21:07,000 Speaker 1: people will say that Trump is obstructing the Department of Justice. 1389 01:21:08,280 --> 01:21:12,240 Speaker 1: What a waste for the country. Uh and what a 1390 01:21:12,880 --> 01:21:17,639 Speaker 1: real what real damage he has done here all because 1391 01:21:17,680 --> 01:21:21,080 Speaker 1: of what what is so terrible about Trump? Again, they 1392 01:21:21,080 --> 01:21:26,760 Speaker 1: talk about his his gruffness, his lack of decorum, his vulgarity, 1393 01:21:27,120 --> 01:21:31,040 Speaker 1: his comments that really bothers them so much that they 1394 01:21:31,040 --> 01:21:34,280 Speaker 1: think that they should weaponize the Department of Justice. That 1395 01:21:34,400 --> 01:21:37,360 Speaker 1: they should create a I mean, we are, we are 1396 01:21:37,479 --> 01:21:41,640 Speaker 1: entering an American now, my friends, were the only institution 1397 01:21:42,120 --> 01:21:48,160 Speaker 1: of government power that has not been thoroughly politicized is 1398 01:21:48,200 --> 01:21:53,599 Speaker 1: the military, everything else, FBI, d O J. Supreme Court. 1399 01:21:53,680 --> 01:21:55,400 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, go down. I'm talking about the 1400 01:21:55,439 --> 01:21:58,720 Speaker 1: non elected. Obviously, the politicians that we elect, they're going 1401 01:21:58,760 --> 01:22:02,440 Speaker 1: to be politicians, right, But I mean the the institutions 1402 01:22:03,600 --> 01:22:06,360 Speaker 1: that are supposed to be above politics, the institutions that 1403 01:22:06,360 --> 01:22:09,120 Speaker 1: are supposed to be about more than just short term 1404 01:22:09,160 --> 01:22:13,920 Speaker 1: political gain when you look at them, when you look 1405 01:22:13,960 --> 01:22:17,280 Speaker 1: at what has happened since Trump became president. One of 1406 01:22:17,360 --> 01:22:21,759 Speaker 1: the legacies of the Obama administration is too so deeply 1407 01:22:22,040 --> 01:22:29,000 Speaker 1: radicalize people that were in the government bureaucracy into this activist, progressivist, 1408 01:22:29,080 --> 01:22:34,080 Speaker 1: my progressive mindset that they couldn't help themselves but use 1409 01:22:34,160 --> 01:22:36,400 Speaker 1: whatever power they had in government to try and oppose 1410 01:22:37,040 --> 01:22:40,439 Speaker 1: policies and oppose a politician they didn't like. It is 1411 01:22:40,479 --> 01:22:43,559 Speaker 1: such a disgrace and it's so destructive. And really the 1412 01:22:43,600 --> 01:22:46,760 Speaker 1: great irony of the Trump administration so far is that 1413 01:22:47,280 --> 01:22:52,040 Speaker 1: people who have been complaining about how Trump is undermining institutions, 1414 01:22:52,080 --> 01:22:53,800 Speaker 1: which is you'll hear this all the time. This is 1415 01:22:53,840 --> 01:22:57,120 Speaker 1: a talking point that you'll constantly here. Those same people 1416 01:22:58,360 --> 01:23:00,920 Speaker 1: are doing more to undermine institut tuitions than Trump could 1417 01:23:00,960 --> 01:23:05,679 Speaker 1: have ever dreamed of. Any politically charged investigation that goes 1418 01:23:05,720 --> 01:23:08,639 Speaker 1: before the FBI now is suspect, and it should be. 1419 01:23:09,520 --> 01:23:13,160 Speaker 1: And that's not a legacy of Trump, that's a legacy 1420 01:23:13,200 --> 01:23:18,479 Speaker 1: of Obama and the progressive left. Background investigations can be 1421 01:23:18,520 --> 01:23:21,960 Speaker 1: tricky business. You need the right answers, obviously, and you 1422 01:23:22,000 --> 01:23:24,800 Speaker 1: need them pretty quickly. And if you have any questions 1423 01:23:24,880 --> 01:23:27,599 Speaker 1: about a difficult case of somebody that you're gonna hire, 1424 01:23:27,880 --> 01:23:31,160 Speaker 1: is this person really uh credential the way they say, 1425 01:23:31,240 --> 01:23:33,040 Speaker 1: Do they have any problems with the law that they're 1426 01:23:33,040 --> 01:23:35,360 Speaker 1: not telling us about any any lawsuits in their background? 1427 01:23:35,600 --> 01:23:38,000 Speaker 1: You need to be able to get somebody on the 1428 01:23:38,120 --> 01:23:40,720 Speaker 1: phone who will talk to you right away about the 1429 01:23:40,760 --> 01:23:44,519 Speaker 1: issue and resolve that. That's Global Verification Network, my friends. 1430 01:23:44,520 --> 01:23:49,280 Speaker 1: Global Verification is run by a veteran CEO who is 1431 01:23:49,320 --> 01:23:52,280 Speaker 1: a friend of mine, and he is the best in 1432 01:23:52,320 --> 01:23:55,080 Speaker 1: the business.

Some of you 1440 01:24:21,280 --> 01:24:23,840 Speaker 1: may be chuckling right now, but I've got data to 1441 01:24:23,920 --> 01:24:27,639 Speaker 1: back this up. Don't start. Don't start your laughter. Gen 1442 01:24:27,920 --> 01:24:31,479 Speaker 1: X and gen Y and baby boomers listening to this show, 1443 01:24:31,520 --> 01:24:34,280 Speaker 1: don't you start your chuck laying. Okay, I've got I've 1444 01:24:34,320 --> 01:24:38,840 Speaker 1: got the numbers here. Peace On Bloomberg gets into this 1445 01:24:39,000 --> 01:24:45,240 Speaker 1: in some detail. Millennials have caused the divorce rate to 1446 01:24:45,439 --> 01:24:50,080 Speaker 1: drop by almost twenty between two thousand and eight and 1447 01:24:50,080 --> 01:24:54,919 Speaker 1: twenty sixteen. In a sense, I'm talking about a subject 1448 01:24:54,960 --> 01:24:57,439 Speaker 1: that I have zero expertise in and many of you 1449 01:24:57,479 --> 01:24:59,519 Speaker 1: know much more about than I do. Is I am 1450 01:24:59,600 --> 01:25:04,800 Speaker 1: not yet and never have been married, But I do 1451 01:25:04,920 --> 01:25:07,000 Speaker 1: have some thoughts on this, especially as I see what's 1452 01:25:07,040 --> 01:25:10,960 Speaker 1: happened among my own my own peer group, and you know, 1453 01:25:11,000 --> 01:25:15,840 Speaker 1: there's different rates of marriage across across the country by 1454 01:25:15,960 --> 01:25:20,679 Speaker 1: region or different age ranges for marriage and people marry later. 1455 01:25:20,840 --> 01:25:23,320 Speaker 1: For example, in New York City, I think for guys, 1456 01:25:23,360 --> 01:25:26,760 Speaker 1: the average is close to thirty one or thirty two 1457 01:25:26,800 --> 01:25:29,599 Speaker 1: now in New York City, whereas if you go into 1458 01:25:29,760 --> 01:25:32,559 Speaker 1: you know, Oklahoma, I think it's closer to you know, 1459 01:25:32,720 --> 01:25:36,160 Speaker 1: twenty three or twenty four. I'm just guessing about that 1460 01:25:36,200 --> 01:25:40,400 Speaker 1: second number. I don't know for sure, but Bloomberg has 1461 01:25:40,400 --> 01:25:45,360 Speaker 1: crunched the numbers here. And here's what I see going on. Um, 1462 01:25:45,400 --> 01:25:48,360 Speaker 1: you have people who have seen what's going on their 1463 01:25:48,400 --> 01:25:54,200 Speaker 1: parents generation. For one, the Boomer generation had a tremendous 1464 01:25:54,280 --> 01:25:58,439 Speaker 1: amount of divorce, as we know, and in fact, it 1465 01:25:58,720 --> 01:26:03,960 Speaker 1: almost became a uh, it almost became kind of normal 1466 01:26:04,000 --> 01:26:08,839 Speaker 1: for people to get married two three times now. Putting aside, 1467 01:26:09,240 --> 01:26:13,320 Speaker 1: I'm not getting into any of the religious or or 1468 01:26:13,840 --> 01:26:16,640 Speaker 1: ethical considerations, you know, I'm not here to judge and 1469 01:26:16,680 --> 01:26:18,639 Speaker 1: on that stuff. And as I said, I've never married, 1470 01:26:18,640 --> 01:26:22,719 Speaker 1: I don't know, but I do know this marriage, based 1471 01:26:22,760 --> 01:26:26,120 Speaker 1: on everything that I've been told, including from talking to 1472 01:26:26,400 --> 01:26:31,760 Speaker 1: divorce lawyers about this is very expensive when it ends. Uh. 1473 01:26:31,800 --> 01:26:36,640 Speaker 1: And as a means of destroying wealth short of a 1474 01:26:36,760 --> 01:26:41,480 Speaker 1: gambling addiction or having a life threatening disease. Uh, divorces 1475 01:26:41,600 --> 01:26:45,280 Speaker 1: right up there. So it's a very bad financial decision 1476 01:26:45,320 --> 01:26:48,920 Speaker 1: to get married and then get divorced, especially once you 1477 01:26:48,960 --> 01:26:50,280 Speaker 1: started doing this a few times. I mean, I always 1478 01:26:50,320 --> 01:26:53,439 Speaker 1: thinking about somebody like Larry King, who still thinks, by 1479 01:26:53,479 --> 01:26:56,400 Speaker 1: the way, that either he should be brought back out 1480 01:26:56,400 --> 01:26:58,519 Speaker 1: of retirement. You know, hey, I'm the only guy that 1481 01:26:58,600 --> 01:27:01,320 Speaker 1: can ask answer the question or asked the questions. He 1482 01:27:01,320 --> 01:27:03,920 Speaker 1: doesn't answer them, he asked them. Uh, he still thinks 1483 01:27:03,960 --> 01:27:05,439 Speaker 1: that he should make some kind of an appearance on 1484 01:27:05,479 --> 01:27:07,559 Speaker 1: the scene. You know, we we just won't. We just 1485 01:27:07,640 --> 01:27:11,559 Speaker 1: won't be able to get the answers we need without 1486 01:27:11,640 --> 01:27:15,280 Speaker 1: Larry King. I mean, these guys that that whole generation 1487 01:27:15,320 --> 01:27:19,759 Speaker 1: I'll say, I mean the explosion of mass media for 1488 01:27:20,320 --> 01:27:22,519 Speaker 1: and the timing of it for folks like Dan rather 1489 01:27:22,560 --> 01:27:25,120 Speaker 1: than Larry King. Some of you might disagree that these 1490 01:27:25,120 --> 01:27:27,240 Speaker 1: guys are all really mediocritis who just were in the 1491 01:27:27,360 --> 01:27:29,439 Speaker 1: right place at the right time. I know that would 1492 01:27:29,439 --> 01:27:32,520 Speaker 1: be considered, uh within the media business, you know, sacrilege, 1493 01:27:32,880 --> 01:27:36,439 Speaker 1: but it's really not. They aren't particularly impressive. They just 1494 01:27:36,760 --> 01:27:39,680 Speaker 1: happen to be the guys, and they were really in 1495 01:27:39,720 --> 01:27:41,720 Speaker 1: the right place at the right time. And there are 1496 01:27:41,760 --> 01:27:43,599 Speaker 1: many others. I mean, I'm not just picking on those two. 1497 01:27:43,600 --> 01:27:45,000 Speaker 1: There there are a whole lot of them where you 1498 01:27:45,040 --> 01:27:47,760 Speaker 1: could say people would call them pioneers, and I would 1499 01:27:47,760 --> 01:27:50,880 Speaker 1: just want to say, well, you know, there's there's pioneers, 1500 01:27:50,920 --> 01:27:53,240 Speaker 1: and then there's people that just happen to get lucky. 1501 01:27:53,400 --> 01:27:55,800 Speaker 1: You know, some people strike gold just when they think 1502 01:27:55,840 --> 01:27:58,120 Speaker 1: they're going to, you know, dig the hole for the outhouse, 1503 01:27:58,160 --> 01:28:02,479 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So with divorce, when we 1504 01:28:02,520 --> 01:28:05,160 Speaker 1: see Larry King had seven marriages, why I brought him up? 1505 01:28:05,160 --> 01:28:08,040 Speaker 1: And I'm always always thought that must have been really 1506 01:28:08,880 --> 01:28:12,960 Speaker 1: rough to make those uh alimony payments. Although I don't know, 1507 01:28:13,240 --> 01:28:16,880 Speaker 1: maybe he signed a lot of what Brandon, what do 1508 01:28:16,920 --> 01:28:20,479 Speaker 1: you call them? Pre nups? Thank you? Um, he might 1509 01:28:20,520 --> 01:28:22,400 Speaker 1: have signed a lot of pre nups. I think once 1510 01:28:22,439 --> 01:28:24,640 Speaker 1: you get to wife number six, you're probably like, you 1511 01:28:24,680 --> 01:28:26,880 Speaker 1: know what, I might have my lawyers take a look 1512 01:28:26,920 --> 01:28:30,559 Speaker 1: at this. But this is a big social chance, this 1513 01:28:30,760 --> 01:28:34,120 Speaker 1: drop in in the divorce rate, and and it it 1514 01:28:34,200 --> 01:28:36,519 Speaker 1: all it's it's there's some very good stuff about this 1515 01:28:37,400 --> 01:28:41,320 Speaker 1: and very not so good stuff about this. On the 1516 01:28:41,320 --> 01:28:44,640 Speaker 1: good stuff side, I would say, obviously this means there 1517 01:28:44,640 --> 01:28:47,560 Speaker 1: are fewer people that are having the wealth wealth destruction 1518 01:28:47,560 --> 01:28:51,200 Speaker 1: of divorce, and then also yes, the pain of divorce 1519 01:28:51,280 --> 01:28:53,000 Speaker 1: for the people involved, and of course when they are 1520 01:28:53,080 --> 01:28:55,760 Speaker 1: children and the families, and you know, I saw this, 1521 01:28:55,920 --> 01:28:58,559 Speaker 1: I didn't realize how damaging it was some of my 1522 01:28:58,640 --> 01:29:00,759 Speaker 1: friends growing up I had. I had a good number 1523 01:29:00,760 --> 01:29:06,320 Speaker 1: of friends whose parents got divorced in in our grammar 1524 01:29:06,400 --> 01:29:09,759 Speaker 1: school years, you know, in early in high school, and 1525 01:29:10,120 --> 01:29:12,559 Speaker 1: it was ugly. But I didn't realize the impact that 1526 01:29:12,600 --> 01:29:14,559 Speaker 1: it had on some of their psyches until later on. 1527 01:29:14,640 --> 01:29:16,200 Speaker 1: I mean, I have friends that are now in there, 1528 01:29:16,720 --> 01:29:19,760 Speaker 1: they're mid thirties, and I can tell they're still kind 1529 01:29:19,760 --> 01:29:21,560 Speaker 1: of haunted by some of the stuff that happened in 1530 01:29:21,560 --> 01:29:25,160 Speaker 1: those divorces. Uh. But but we saw this stuff happen, 1531 01:29:25,240 --> 01:29:29,720 Speaker 1: and I think that now there's a much greater recognition 1532 01:29:29,760 --> 01:29:33,920 Speaker 1: of how long lasting those those ill effects can be 1533 01:29:33,920 --> 01:29:36,360 Speaker 1: from a very nat from a very nasty divorce. So 1534 01:29:36,400 --> 01:29:39,120 Speaker 1: that's for one. Also, you have all these celebrities who 1535 01:29:39,160 --> 01:29:42,880 Speaker 1: are married Larry King, there are many others married three, 1536 01:29:43,640 --> 01:29:46,760 Speaker 1: four or five times. You know, once you get to 1537 01:29:47,120 --> 01:29:51,439 Speaker 1: three and up start to wonder like, maybe maybe don't 1538 01:29:51,439 --> 01:29:53,479 Speaker 1: go the whole marriage out. I don't know, I don't know. 1539 01:29:53,680 --> 01:29:55,680 Speaker 1: Maybe I shouldn't judge, but it feels like three is 1540 01:29:55,720 --> 01:29:59,559 Speaker 1: a lot. It feels like three is probably, you know, 1541 01:29:59,600 --> 01:30:03,439 Speaker 1: maybe maybe maybe a time to just date for a 1542 01:30:03,439 --> 01:30:05,559 Speaker 1: while and see how things go. I don't know, But 1543 01:30:05,600 --> 01:30:07,400 Speaker 1: then I've never been married, so you know, I don't 1544 01:30:07,560 --> 01:30:10,800 Speaker 1: I don't speak of what I know here. Uh Boomers. 1545 01:30:10,880 --> 01:30:12,760 Speaker 1: By the way, I don't want to. I don't want 1546 01:30:12,760 --> 01:30:15,000 Speaker 1: to bash any boomers because we have a lot of boomers. 1547 01:30:15,000 --> 01:30:16,960 Speaker 1: To listen to this show. My parents are boomers, so 1548 01:30:17,000 --> 01:30:20,360 Speaker 1: the people I love most in the whole world are boomers. Um. 1549 01:30:20,439 --> 01:30:25,799 Speaker 1: But uh, Gray divorce is a phenomenon of the boomer 1550 01:30:25,840 --> 01:30:29,479 Speaker 1: generation as well, where people fifty five to sixty four 1551 01:30:30,880 --> 01:30:34,880 Speaker 1: get divorced, and that doubled from the generation above them 1552 01:30:34,880 --> 01:30:36,600 Speaker 1: and the baby boomer generation. So not only do you 1553 01:30:36,680 --> 01:30:39,000 Speaker 1: have a lot of divorce among the boomers, you had 1554 01:30:39,000 --> 01:30:44,360 Speaker 1: a lot of you know, divorce in basically pre retirement 1555 01:30:44,840 --> 01:30:48,080 Speaker 1: age among boomers, which is kind of interesting. But then 1556 01:30:48,160 --> 01:30:50,000 Speaker 1: you get to what I'm seeing going on with my 1557 01:30:50,160 --> 01:30:54,960 Speaker 1: peer group, and that is marriage as almost a luxury. Good. Now, 1558 01:30:55,120 --> 01:30:59,559 Speaker 1: let me explain, marriage for a lot of people is 1559 01:30:59,600 --> 01:31:04,720 Speaker 1: getting it's later on, and it's after education is finished. 1560 01:31:04,720 --> 01:31:08,960 Speaker 1: It's after people have really gotten established in their careers. 1561 01:31:09,040 --> 01:31:11,600 Speaker 1: This is where you get into your early thirties and 1562 01:31:11,720 --> 01:31:14,599 Speaker 1: urban areas. Getting married in your early thirties for guys 1563 01:31:14,720 --> 01:31:18,880 Speaker 1: is now standard. For for ladies, it's a little more 1564 01:31:18,960 --> 01:31:21,120 Speaker 1: like in the late twenties still, but for guys mid 1565 01:31:21,160 --> 01:31:23,479 Speaker 1: thirties all the way up into the late thirties. So, 1566 01:31:23,640 --> 01:31:26,360 Speaker 1: believe it or not, yours truly not as much of 1567 01:31:26,400 --> 01:31:29,400 Speaker 1: an odd duck. Buck is not as much of an 1568 01:31:29,439 --> 01:31:32,439 Speaker 1: odd duck as you might think, well, at least on 1569 01:31:32,479 --> 01:31:37,840 Speaker 1: this issue. But it's also now the case that younger, 1570 01:31:38,640 --> 01:31:42,960 Speaker 1: less educated, poorer people who are having children are less 1571 01:31:43,040 --> 01:31:47,680 Speaker 1: and less likely to be married. An older, more stable 1572 01:31:47,800 --> 01:31:52,439 Speaker 1: financially and more established people are the ones who are 1573 01:31:52,439 --> 01:31:57,240 Speaker 1: getting married and staying married. So you know, there there's 1574 01:31:57,280 --> 01:32:00,519 Speaker 1: definitely the clear upside here, like we don't people getting 1575 01:32:00,600 --> 01:32:03,000 Speaker 1: you know, you don't want people getting divorced. I think 1576 01:32:03,000 --> 01:32:05,720 Speaker 1: that marriage has gone through a I think that the 1577 01:32:05,760 --> 01:32:09,160 Speaker 1: Boomers basically took marriage to the brink of extinction in 1578 01:32:09,160 --> 01:32:11,479 Speaker 1: some ways. I mean they're not extinction, okay, fine, but 1579 01:32:11,560 --> 01:32:15,439 Speaker 1: they they made it something that people didn't take quite 1580 01:32:15,479 --> 01:32:18,639 Speaker 1: as seriously as any generation before that. Uh, and now 1581 01:32:18,720 --> 01:32:21,080 Speaker 1: it seems to be rebounding a bit with the millennials. 1582 01:32:21,120 --> 01:32:24,160 Speaker 1: But we've gone through a period here where no one 1583 01:32:24,200 --> 01:32:26,840 Speaker 1: really takes that till death to us part seriously the 1584 01:32:26,840 --> 01:32:30,280 Speaker 1: way they used to. You know, on the left, for sure, 1585 01:32:31,160 --> 01:32:33,679 Speaker 1: conservatives tend to be married and tend to stay married 1586 01:32:33,720 --> 01:32:37,800 Speaker 1: a little different for us, but liberals view marriage as 1587 01:32:37,880 --> 01:32:41,200 Speaker 1: almost like leasing an apartment. It's really Ah, yes, there's 1588 01:32:41,240 --> 01:32:45,599 Speaker 1: some financial obligations, but it's a somewhat temporary state of affairs. 1589 01:32:46,280 --> 01:32:48,439 Speaker 1: And I just wonder what the long term implications are here. 1590 01:32:48,520 --> 01:32:51,040 Speaker 1: And the fact that people are getting married later, staying 1591 01:32:51,040 --> 01:32:54,080 Speaker 1: married longer, and in higher percentages is good, but that 1592 01:32:54,200 --> 01:32:58,680 Speaker 1: you have poorer and you know that the less affluent, 1593 01:32:58,760 --> 01:33:03,680 Speaker 1: less educated folks aren't getting married at all. Ever, Uh, 1594 01:33:03,960 --> 01:33:07,479 Speaker 1: that is a big destabilizing factor. And I think that's 1595 01:33:07,520 --> 01:33:09,840 Speaker 1: going to happen, very long term negative implications. So again 1596 01:33:09,840 --> 01:33:12,559 Speaker 1: it's somebody with no marriage expertise. Those are my thoughts 1597 01:33:12,560 --> 01:33:14,800 Speaker 1: on marriage. Be sure to light me up in the 1598 01:33:14,800 --> 01:33:18,280 Speaker 1: Facebook comments Facebook dot com slash buck Sexton. Some of 1599 01:33:18,320 --> 01:33:24,000 Speaker 1: you may recall that I have a particular hatred for mosquitoes. 1600 01:33:24,720 --> 01:33:28,320 Speaker 1: I just I think mosquitoes should not exist. They have 1601 01:33:28,400 --> 01:33:31,360 Speaker 1: killed more people than any other animal in the history 1602 01:33:31,360 --> 01:33:34,720 Speaker 1: of our species. We are really fighting a constant war 1603 01:33:34,800 --> 01:33:38,920 Speaker 1: against mosquitoes, both in terms of the spread of disease 1604 01:33:39,120 --> 01:33:43,280 Speaker 1: right malaria and dengey and zekea and you know, West 1605 01:33:43,400 --> 01:33:45,840 Speaker 1: Nile virus, all this different stuff you get from mosquitoes. 1606 01:33:46,640 --> 01:33:49,559 Speaker 1: Malaria still kills huge numbers of people around the world 1607 01:33:49,560 --> 01:33:53,519 Speaker 1: every year. And and also just because they're annoying. I 1608 01:33:53,560 --> 01:33:56,880 Speaker 1: will never forget in New York City, in my tiny 1609 01:33:56,960 --> 01:34:00,040 Speaker 1: studio apartment getting eaten alive when I was trying to 1610 01:34:00,120 --> 01:34:05,280 Speaker 1: go to sleep by a mosquito, and it uh kept 1611 01:34:05,280 --> 01:34:06,639 Speaker 1: me up all night because when I try to fall 1612 01:34:06,680 --> 01:34:11,439 Speaker 1: sleep and it would land on me right when I was, 1613 01:34:11,840 --> 01:34:13,479 Speaker 1: you know, about to sleep and would start eating me 1614 01:34:13,520 --> 01:34:17,519 Speaker 1: and make my hands itch. And I managed to use 1615 01:34:17,560 --> 01:34:21,280 Speaker 1: my reading light like a flashlight and smack it against 1616 01:34:21,280 --> 01:34:23,640 Speaker 1: the wall and kill this thing. And it was one 1617 01:34:23,640 --> 01:34:26,559 Speaker 1: of the happiest moments that I could remember in recent 1618 01:34:26,600 --> 01:34:28,800 Speaker 1: memory at that time. It was really because it took 1619 01:34:28,800 --> 01:34:30,640 Speaker 1: me about three hours to get this guy. Anyway, I 1620 01:34:30,680 --> 01:34:32,920 Speaker 1: hate mosquitoes. And you're saying, Buck, why are you telling 1621 01:34:32,920 --> 01:34:34,639 Speaker 1: me this story? It's a dumb story. I know it's 1622 01:34:34,720 --> 01:34:37,240 Speaker 1: late in the show. I know you're probably, you know, 1623 01:34:37,240 --> 01:34:39,679 Speaker 1: a little run down because you work like a maniac. 1624 01:34:40,120 --> 01:34:43,080 Speaker 1: Your show Rising is incredible given that you have to 1625 01:34:43,120 --> 01:34:45,559 Speaker 1: deal with progressive and left wing stuff all the time. 1626 01:34:46,320 --> 01:34:48,840 Speaker 1: How do you do it? Anyway? I'm telling you about 1627 01:34:48,840 --> 01:34:51,320 Speaker 1: it because there's a news story here. And I've discussed 1628 01:34:51,320 --> 01:34:54,800 Speaker 1: with you in the past that if I had my way, 1629 01:34:55,360 --> 01:34:59,520 Speaker 1: we would, in fact, uh find a way to eliminate 1630 01:34:59,520 --> 01:35:01,400 Speaker 1: mosquito from the face of the earth. That turns out 1631 01:35:02,720 --> 01:35:07,679 Speaker 1: that there is a way to genetically modify mosquitoes. Good news, 1632 01:35:07,720 --> 01:35:11,240 Speaker 1: my friends. Courtesy of NPR. Here there is a gene 1633 01:35:11,360 --> 01:35:15,000 Speaker 1: editing tool known as Crisper that can engineer mosquitoes with 1634 01:35:15,040 --> 01:35:22,120 Speaker 1: a gene drive which transmits a sterilizing mutation. And once 1635 01:35:22,160 --> 01:35:25,000 Speaker 1: they release these mosquitoes with this mutation into cages filled 1636 01:35:25,000 --> 01:35:30,080 Speaker 1: with unmodified mosquitoes, all the insects were wiped out. That 1637 01:35:30,960 --> 01:35:36,080 Speaker 1: all the insects um this could be a way to 1638 01:35:36,479 --> 01:35:40,479 Speaker 1: use mosquitoes to kill all the other mosquitoes. And I 1639 01:35:40,520 --> 01:35:42,880 Speaker 1: think this is awesome. And I know people are gonna say, oh, 1640 01:35:42,920 --> 01:35:45,160 Speaker 1: birds eat them and whatever. You know what, there's a 1641 01:35:45,160 --> 01:35:48,680 Speaker 1: lot of species out there. I am anti mosquito. I 1642 01:35:48,720 --> 01:35:52,400 Speaker 1: think we should eradicate all of them, and now science 1643 01:35:52,880 --> 01:35:57,040 Speaker 1: hashtag science may make it possible. With all this, we've 1644 01:35:57,040 --> 01:36:00,600 Speaker 1: got roll call coming up. Rock and roll, fellow atriots. 1645 01:36:09,439 --> 01:36:23,559 Speaker 1: We made ours go up to eleven. It's time for 1646 01:36:23,720 --> 01:36:27,479 Speaker 1: roll call, all right. You know what it is. It's 1647 01:36:27,560 --> 01:36:29,439 Speaker 1: roll call. That's because we got the cool intro to 1648 01:36:29,479 --> 01:36:33,280 Speaker 1: make it all happen. Facebook dot com, slash buck sex 1649 01:36:33,360 --> 01:36:38,560 Speaker 1: and if you want to be a part of this party, Ray, 1650 01:36:39,360 --> 01:36:43,120 Speaker 1: First up in our session, Buck, do you recall when 1651 01:36:43,160 --> 01:36:46,040 Speaker 1: all the damn's left d C for recess, which allowed 1652 01:36:46,080 --> 01:36:49,799 Speaker 1: many judges et cetera to be appointed. Now, I'm curious 1653 01:36:49,840 --> 01:36:53,479 Speaker 1: who showed up at their get togethers plotting this Kavanaugh 1654 01:36:53,520 --> 01:36:57,360 Speaker 1: Tobacco was the accuser. They're great shows. Well, Ray, I 1655 01:36:57,439 --> 01:37:01,080 Speaker 1: like that you're thinking outside the box. And I can't 1656 01:37:01,120 --> 01:37:05,439 Speaker 1: say that I I know um much about what you're 1657 01:37:05,439 --> 01:37:08,519 Speaker 1: talking about, but thank you for writing in and nice 1658 01:37:08,520 --> 01:37:13,240 Speaker 1: to hear from you. All right, Amy, Right, here's the deal, Buck, 1659 01:37:13,880 --> 01:37:16,680 Speaker 1: I believe something happened to Blasi Ford, and she has 1660 01:37:16,720 --> 01:37:19,080 Speaker 1: likely convinced herself that some good can come from that 1661 01:37:19,120 --> 01:37:22,839 Speaker 1: awful experience. If she can take out a conservative Supreme 1662 01:37:22,880 --> 01:37:26,360 Speaker 1: Court justice nominee. She knows it wasn't Kavanaugh, and she 1663 01:37:26,400 --> 01:37:30,240 Speaker 1: has no intention of testifying under oath. Her testimony was 1664 01:37:30,320 --> 01:37:34,800 Speaker 1: carefully crafted to be indefensible by the accused. This is 1665 01:37:34,840 --> 01:37:37,920 Speaker 1: why they omitted time place, et cetera. Blasi Ford is 1666 01:37:38,040 --> 01:37:41,479 Speaker 1: at least intelligent enough to know that testifying under oath 1667 01:37:41,520 --> 01:37:44,519 Speaker 1: would be a very bad idea for her because something 1668 01:37:44,560 --> 01:37:47,600 Speaker 1: she would need to say would cause her to perjure herself. 1669 01:37:47,640 --> 01:37:50,559 Speaker 1: Her testimony obviously cannot stand up to any scrutiny, or 1670 01:37:50,600 --> 01:37:54,479 Speaker 1: she would be doing the stormy Daniel's routine. And let's 1671 01:37:54,520 --> 01:37:56,799 Speaker 1: be honest about things. The d n C, after witnessing 1672 01:37:56,800 --> 01:37:59,640 Speaker 1: the success of the Me too movement, decided that the 1673 01:37:59,640 --> 01:38:02,640 Speaker 1: political climate was right for these types of accusations. They 1674 01:38:02,640 --> 01:38:06,880 Speaker 1: are grooming potential accusers. Uh, and there we have it. Amy, 1675 01:38:06,880 --> 01:38:11,040 Speaker 1: thank you for writing in um. Yes, it's me too. 1676 01:38:11,320 --> 01:38:14,840 Speaker 1: Was destined to be weaponized. In fact, I was thinking 1677 01:38:14,920 --> 01:38:17,800 Speaker 1: yesterday a bit about how if somebody was to go 1678 01:38:17,840 --> 01:38:21,799 Speaker 1: back into the archives of this show they would find 1679 01:38:21,920 --> 01:38:25,519 Speaker 1: that I was worried about when this would go too 1680 01:38:25,520 --> 01:38:29,320 Speaker 1: far or be used for political purposes. Very early on, 1681 01:38:29,360 --> 01:38:32,320 Speaker 1: I mean right around the time that the Weinstein allegations 1682 01:38:32,360 --> 01:38:35,080 Speaker 1: came out, I guess a year ago, because it was 1683 01:38:35,120 --> 01:38:38,320 Speaker 1: inevitable once you have a political movement like this that 1684 01:38:38,360 --> 01:38:43,320 Speaker 1: has so much attention, and that also drives corporate and 1685 01:38:43,360 --> 01:38:47,679 Speaker 1: therefore financial decision making. Remember, people are getting fired. Stock 1686 01:38:47,760 --> 01:38:52,479 Speaker 1: share price has gone down because people like Les Moonvest 1687 01:38:52,520 --> 01:38:56,040 Speaker 1: have gotten ousted or under investigation. So there have been 1688 01:38:56,080 --> 01:39:00,120 Speaker 1: real consequences for this movement beyond just either just just 1689 01:39:00,320 --> 01:39:04,479 Speaker 1: for the victims and well justice for the accused in 1690 01:39:04,520 --> 01:39:07,479 Speaker 1: some of these cases like Weinstein, where justice means he 1691 01:39:07,520 --> 01:39:10,120 Speaker 1: gets sent to prison. But yes, I knew that they 1692 01:39:10,120 --> 01:39:12,840 Speaker 1: would eventually reach a point where they weaponized it, and 1693 01:39:12,880 --> 01:39:18,040 Speaker 1: I think we are there. Um all right, now we 1694 01:39:18,240 --> 01:39:23,439 Speaker 1: have uh Peter who writes, Hey, Buck, I appreciate your 1695 01:39:23,479 --> 01:39:26,800 Speaker 1: strong stand on the issue of abortion. Kavanaugh. I've seen 1696 01:39:26,840 --> 01:39:29,840 Speaker 1: it suggested online that in addition to being a professor, 1697 01:39:30,400 --> 01:39:33,880 Speaker 1: Blasi Ford also works or work for the abortion drug 1698 01:39:33,920 --> 01:39:39,200 Speaker 1: maker UH Concept Therapeutics or Corcept Therapeutics. I saw a 1699 01:39:39,240 --> 01:39:42,080 Speaker 1: picture of a biography page that had a listed probably 1700 01:39:42,120 --> 01:39:46,519 Speaker 1: from a conference. Also, Debbie Ramirez, the other accuser, worked 1701 01:39:46,520 --> 01:39:50,720 Speaker 1: for a liberal nonprofit safe house Progressive Alliance for Nonviolence 1702 01:39:51,160 --> 01:39:54,360 Speaker 1: pretty logical. The politics unlikely, Abortion is a strong motivating 1703 01:39:54,360 --> 01:39:57,600 Speaker 1: factor in these accounts. PS. Here is a picture of 1704 01:39:57,600 --> 01:40:00,920 Speaker 1: our awesome shelter dog, Sheba in you pug mix, a 1705 01:40:01,000 --> 01:40:04,599 Speaker 1: perfect apartment dog. Your dog is very cute. It kind 1706 01:40:04,640 --> 01:40:09,000 Speaker 1: of looks like a German shepherd and a beagle had 1707 01:40:09,040 --> 01:40:13,160 Speaker 1: a baby. Uh And as to your yeah, what you're saying, Peter, obviously, 1708 01:40:13,200 --> 01:40:18,639 Speaker 1: I agree that politics are very heavy motivation here. Anyone 1709 01:40:18,680 --> 01:40:23,360 Speaker 1: who denies that is being disingenuous. It's too obvious, it's 1710 01:40:23,400 --> 01:40:28,599 Speaker 1: too clear. So there you haven't. Uh No, let's by 1711 01:40:28,600 --> 01:40:32,360 Speaker 1: the way, a shelter dog, very very cute. I'm pretty 1712 01:40:32,360 --> 01:40:35,120 Speaker 1: committed in my mind to getting an English bulldog, but 1713 01:40:35,400 --> 01:40:38,200 Speaker 1: I gotta wait a little bit until I figure out 1714 01:40:38,520 --> 01:40:42,360 Speaker 1: some things, some life things. Conversation for another time. Team 1715 01:40:42,400 --> 01:40:45,400 Speaker 1: Michael rides High Box. Judge Kavana needs a good PR person. 1716 01:40:45,880 --> 01:40:47,880 Speaker 1: Do you think he could get Hillary to help him 1717 01:40:47,920 --> 01:40:53,040 Speaker 1: with the bimbo eruptions. She has extensive experience in that 1718 01:40:53,080 --> 01:40:55,519 Speaker 1: field and might help him get a speedy confirmation. Shields 1719 01:40:55,600 --> 01:41:01,520 Speaker 1: High from Connecticut. Well, Michael, you know the the parallels 1720 01:41:01,560 --> 01:41:04,519 Speaker 1: here to what was Well, I shouldn't say parallels, but 1721 01:41:04,560 --> 01:41:08,040 Speaker 1: the comparison between the way Democrats are talking now about 1722 01:41:08,160 --> 01:41:12,320 Speaker 1: Kavanaugh on the flimsiest of possible allegations versus the way 1723 01:41:12,360 --> 01:41:15,479 Speaker 1: that they referred to the very credible, named on the 1724 01:41:15,520 --> 01:41:19,439 Speaker 1: record and serial allegations against Bill Clinton tells you all 1725 01:41:19,479 --> 01:41:22,120 Speaker 1: you really need to know. I mean, they are not, 1726 01:41:22,400 --> 01:41:26,559 Speaker 1: in fact honest brokers here and never have been. In fact, 1727 01:41:26,600 --> 01:41:29,960 Speaker 1: they have embraced the dark side. And I mean that. 1728 01:41:30,160 --> 01:41:32,679 Speaker 1: I don't mean that in a in a funny Jedi sense. 1729 01:41:32,720 --> 01:41:37,040 Speaker 1: I mean that, in a uh they the The underlying 1730 01:41:37,280 --> 01:41:40,800 Speaker 1: reason for all of this is that they would have 1731 01:41:40,920 --> 01:41:44,360 Speaker 1: to wrestle, at least some of the millions of people 1732 01:41:44,400 --> 01:41:46,720 Speaker 1: in this country who really believe that planned parenthood is 1733 01:41:47,160 --> 01:41:50,080 Speaker 1: some kind of force for good. They would have to 1734 01:41:50,120 --> 01:41:55,400 Speaker 1: wrestle with the absence of a federal decree from the government, 1735 01:41:55,439 --> 01:41:58,080 Speaker 1: the most powerful government in the world, that tells them 1736 01:41:58,080 --> 01:42:03,000 Speaker 1: that is a constitutional right to have an abortion um 1737 01:42:03,080 --> 01:42:05,360 Speaker 1: And they would then have to think, well, as this 1738 01:42:05,479 --> 01:42:09,960 Speaker 1: now the closest thing in this country's history to a 1739 01:42:10,080 --> 01:42:16,400 Speaker 1: legal regime where immorality was in fact enshrined in law, 1740 01:42:16,520 --> 01:42:19,679 Speaker 1: similar to the dreads Gont decision, that's what they don't 1741 01:42:19,680 --> 01:42:22,200 Speaker 1: want to deal with. And that's what because the abortion 1742 01:42:22,240 --> 01:42:25,400 Speaker 1: would stay legal in states, but those states that had 1743 01:42:25,439 --> 01:42:29,839 Speaker 1: abortion would be on very different ground trying to defend 1744 01:42:29,840 --> 01:42:32,880 Speaker 1: their practices. And if it's no longer a constitutional right, 1745 01:42:33,400 --> 01:42:36,800 Speaker 1: it would then be subject to whatever the state legislature 1746 01:42:36,840 --> 01:42:40,639 Speaker 1: designs at any given time, and those winds could shift 1747 01:42:40,720 --> 01:42:44,840 Speaker 1: rather rapidly. Whereas a constitutional decree, as long as you 1748 01:42:44,880 --> 01:42:48,360 Speaker 1: can hold, as long as you can hold the Supreme Court, um, 1749 01:42:48,600 --> 01:42:52,840 Speaker 1: you can keep that indefinitely. So that's why they're also 1750 01:42:53,000 --> 01:42:57,560 Speaker 1: very upset about this, because they don't want the reckoning 1751 01:42:57,960 --> 01:43:01,960 Speaker 1: with their own consciences. Mark writes book, has anyone been 1752 01:43:02,000 --> 01:43:05,120 Speaker 1: able to get Keith Ellison on record giving the party 1753 01:43:05,160 --> 01:43:07,599 Speaker 1: line that the accusers should be believed and that Kavanaugh 1754 01:43:07,640 --> 01:43:11,760 Speaker 1: should step down or not be confirmed due to these allegations. 1755 01:43:12,280 --> 01:43:14,519 Speaker 1: I think that as a candidate for state attorney general 1756 01:43:14,600 --> 01:43:17,040 Speaker 1: and someone who could have direct interaction with Supreme Court, 1757 01:43:17,520 --> 01:43:20,000 Speaker 1: his view is directly relevant and would be quite telling. 1758 01:43:20,080 --> 01:43:26,120 Speaker 1: Shields High. Um. Yeah, they're not gonna get Keith Allison 1759 01:43:26,120 --> 01:43:29,680 Speaker 1: on the record for that, Mark, because they don't want 1760 01:43:29,680 --> 01:43:32,519 Speaker 1: to talk about Keith Ellison. Because Keith Ellison is a 1761 01:43:32,600 --> 01:43:40,679 Speaker 1: credibly accused domestic abuser, recent domestic abuser, and he's also black, 1762 01:43:40,760 --> 01:43:45,080 Speaker 1: which means that they view him as a very important 1763 01:43:45,160 --> 01:43:48,599 Speaker 1: asset to the Democratic Party. Uh, they view him as 1764 01:43:48,600 --> 01:43:52,040 Speaker 1: somebody who is you know, as a minority constituency that 1765 01:43:52,080 --> 01:43:55,960 Speaker 1: he speaks to, and and they won't I mean, there, 1766 01:43:55,960 --> 01:43:59,240 Speaker 1: they'll be very slow to throw him under the bus, 1767 01:43:59,240 --> 01:44:04,280 Speaker 1: so to speak. So there we have it, uh, Jeff writes, 1768 01:44:04,840 --> 01:44:07,040 Speaker 1: I just wanted to mention that with all these crazy 1769 01:44:07,080 --> 01:44:09,679 Speaker 1: tweets that have been floating around, I'm actually very concerned 1770 01:44:09,680 --> 01:44:13,120 Speaker 1: that the left has become violently unhinged. It's like they've 1771 01:44:13,160 --> 01:44:17,519 Speaker 1: been changed at the molecular level. They cannot comprehend common 1772 01:44:17,560 --> 01:44:21,439 Speaker 1: sense or common decency, just venting. I'm at a loss. Well, Jeff, 1773 01:44:21,439 --> 01:44:24,880 Speaker 1: you're not alone, my friend. I feel the same way. 1774 01:44:24,920 --> 01:44:27,519 Speaker 1: In fact, whenever I see one of these incidents like 1775 01:44:27,640 --> 01:44:32,200 Speaker 1: we were just subjected to, where you have somebody, uh, 1776 01:44:32,560 --> 01:44:35,160 Speaker 1: you know, along the lines of what just happened with 1777 01:44:35,160 --> 01:44:37,719 Speaker 1: Ted Cruz who's trying to have dinner with his wife. 1778 01:44:37,720 --> 01:44:42,559 Speaker 1: I mean, there needs to be some basic human understanding that, 1779 01:44:42,800 --> 01:44:44,160 Speaker 1: you know, we should all be allowed to have a 1780 01:44:44,240 --> 01:44:49,400 Speaker 1: quiet dinner with with our significant other without people screaming 1781 01:44:49,400 --> 01:44:52,120 Speaker 1: in our face about politics who don't even know us 1782 01:44:52,479 --> 01:44:56,840 Speaker 1: um and and the fact that that is not universally condemned. 1783 01:44:57,640 --> 01:44:59,960 Speaker 1: It just goes to show you what the other side 1784 01:45:00,080 --> 01:45:05,120 Speaker 1: it has become, and what having a a stranglehold on 1785 01:45:05,280 --> 01:45:09,640 Speaker 1: pop culture and most of the news media and academia, 1786 01:45:09,720 --> 01:45:13,439 Speaker 1: it's allowed these people to create these existences where they 1787 01:45:13,520 --> 01:45:17,479 Speaker 1: just frankly can't confront and they can't deal with ideas 1788 01:45:17,520 --> 01:45:20,519 Speaker 1: that challenge their own ideas. They don't view it as 1789 01:45:20,520 --> 01:45:24,280 Speaker 1: an opportunity to learn. They view it as an attack 1790 01:45:24,360 --> 01:45:27,760 Speaker 1: on their very sense of self. And that's something that's 1791 01:45:27,800 --> 01:45:30,240 Speaker 1: quite different between the left and the right these days. 1792 01:45:30,760 --> 01:45:35,040 Speaker 1: I'm fascinated by progressives who are really well informed or 1793 01:45:35,080 --> 01:45:39,000 Speaker 1: really thoughtful on on any issue. I almost always think 1794 01:45:39,040 --> 01:45:43,720 Speaker 1: they're unbelievably wrong, but I'm at least very interested in 1795 01:45:43,760 --> 01:45:48,479 Speaker 1: speaking to them. Progressives, however, are in general and it's 1796 01:45:48,520 --> 01:45:50,680 Speaker 1: really a part of the ideology. It's not true of 1797 01:45:50,720 --> 01:45:52,280 Speaker 1: all of them, but it's true of most of them. 1798 01:45:52,360 --> 01:45:55,120 Speaker 1: It is. It is the exception to come across the 1799 01:45:55,120 --> 01:45:58,599 Speaker 1: progressive who does not feel this way. Progressives just want 1800 01:45:59,080 --> 01:46:01,439 Speaker 1: what they believe to be reflected back to them. They 1801 01:46:01,439 --> 01:46:05,120 Speaker 1: don't want anyone who challenges them, and they react anger, 1802 01:46:05,240 --> 01:46:10,400 Speaker 1: with anger, and with emotion to even rather gentle intellectual 1803 01:46:10,479 --> 01:46:14,120 Speaker 1: challenges of whatever it is that they hold dear. So 1804 01:46:14,280 --> 01:46:17,240 Speaker 1: I think that's an important part of this too. To 1805 01:46:17,320 --> 01:46:22,720 Speaker 1: keep in mind. Um, here we go one second here, uh, 1806 01:46:23,000 --> 01:46:25,120 Speaker 1: Aries rights Buck, you were talking about how you could 1807 01:46:25,120 --> 01:46:28,559 Speaker 1: feel Trump's patriotism after we interviewed him. I will suggest 1808 01:46:28,640 --> 01:46:31,760 Speaker 1: his early supporters saw it early on. I will also 1809 01:46:31,840 --> 01:46:35,080 Speaker 1: suggest other conservatives who were so alarmed by Trump's patriotism 1810 01:46:35,479 --> 01:46:38,360 Speaker 1: they saw it as fascism and had to oppose him 1811 01:46:38,400 --> 01:46:41,320 Speaker 1: to the point of risking Hillary getting elected aren't patriots 1812 01:46:41,320 --> 01:46:44,080 Speaker 1: at all. I'm not surprised by what the left is doing, 1813 01:46:44,160 --> 01:46:46,320 Speaker 1: and I think they're capable of much much more. As 1814 01:46:46,320 --> 01:46:50,480 Speaker 1: you alluded to, uh suggesting Brett Kavanaugh should need more security, 1815 01:46:51,000 --> 01:46:53,400 Speaker 1: I think everything from the deep state spying on Trump 1816 01:46:53,479 --> 01:46:56,559 Speaker 1: to the attempted destruction of Kavanaugh is a conspiracy. I 1817 01:46:56,640 --> 01:47:00,320 Speaker 1: find it way too convenient that Chuck Schumer, that's editor 1818 01:47:00,360 --> 01:47:03,519 Speaker 1: that seemed to organize the protests of Kavanaugh, didn't have 1819 01:47:03,600 --> 01:47:05,839 Speaker 1: anything to do with the conspiracy to take down Trump. 1820 01:47:06,120 --> 01:47:08,040 Speaker 1: As he's the one who brought it up, saying Trump 1821 01:47:08,080 --> 01:47:11,960 Speaker 1: shouldn't mess with the intel agencies. So called leaders the 1822 01:47:11,960 --> 01:47:15,880 Speaker 1: conservative movement like Ben Shapiro, who couldn't recognize Trump for 1823 01:47:15,920 --> 01:47:18,679 Speaker 1: the patriot he was because they couldn't recognize how evil 1824 01:47:18,920 --> 01:47:22,280 Speaker 1: our future enemy China is with their crackdown on Christianity 1825 01:47:22,320 --> 01:47:25,000 Speaker 1: and the burning of crosses and churches, and also their 1826 01:47:25,000 --> 01:47:29,040 Speaker 1: pockets don't feel a little lighter. Are not true American patriots, um, 1827 01:47:29,120 --> 01:47:31,360 Speaker 1: and are poor excuses to be leaders in our movements. 1828 01:47:31,360 --> 01:47:36,040 Speaker 1: They are aiding and abetting agents of evil. UM. Well, 1829 01:47:36,120 --> 01:47:39,479 Speaker 1: a lot a lot in there. Let me take the 1830 01:47:39,479 --> 01:47:45,920 Speaker 1: notion of um the deep state and conservative conservatives who 1831 01:47:46,640 --> 01:47:49,560 Speaker 1: won't at this point see, well, they're the conservative that 1832 01:47:49,640 --> 01:47:52,680 Speaker 1: still don't see the benefits of Trump and the conservatives 1833 01:47:52,680 --> 01:47:56,599 Speaker 1: who are early on were adamantly opposed to Trump, right. 1834 01:47:56,920 --> 01:47:59,280 Speaker 1: Uh And and I think that what you see are 1835 01:47:59,280 --> 01:48:01,640 Speaker 1: that there there are folks now who are so desperate 1836 01:48:01,920 --> 01:48:04,519 Speaker 1: to not be wrong because they think that they live 1837 01:48:05,080 --> 01:48:06,960 Speaker 1: in the life of the mind, and it would be 1838 01:48:07,520 --> 01:48:09,920 Speaker 1: it would really undermine their sense of self. I mean this. 1839 01:48:10,080 --> 01:48:12,439 Speaker 1: You know that there are conservatives who suffer from similar 1840 01:48:12,439 --> 01:48:15,160 Speaker 1: maladies to the progressives, and one of them is this 1841 01:48:15,200 --> 01:48:19,080 Speaker 1: notion that the that Trump can't be good or Trump 1842 01:48:19,120 --> 01:48:21,720 Speaker 1: can't be better than they thought, because that would mean 1843 01:48:21,720 --> 01:48:26,160 Speaker 1: that some conservatives were really, really wrong. I will say 1844 01:48:26,200 --> 01:48:28,320 Speaker 1: this though, if you are a conservative who is currently 1845 01:48:29,320 --> 01:48:31,760 Speaker 1: um who is currently out there, And by the way, 1846 01:48:31,880 --> 01:48:33,720 Speaker 1: I do not he mentioned Ben Shapiro on there. I 1847 01:48:34,479 --> 01:48:37,040 Speaker 1: like in respect Ben, I've got nothing critical to say 1848 01:48:37,040 --> 01:48:40,360 Speaker 1: about him on on this matter. I think he's very 1849 01:48:40,360 --> 01:48:43,280 Speaker 1: fair minded when it comes to Trump. Um. But as 1850 01:48:43,360 --> 01:48:46,439 Speaker 1: to you know what what goes on now, I mean 1851 01:48:46,439 --> 01:48:48,760 Speaker 1: anyone who's out there, and there are people, there are 1852 01:48:48,800 --> 01:48:55,080 Speaker 1: some prominent conservatives advocating for voting for Democrats in the midterms. UM. 1853 01:48:55,160 --> 01:49:01,280 Speaker 1: So that to me is being a Democrat. That to 1854 01:49:01,360 --> 01:49:05,880 Speaker 1: me is is taking your concerns with Trump way too far. UM. 1855 01:49:05,960 --> 01:49:08,679 Speaker 1: So you know that. And you see this with Bill Crystal, 1856 01:49:08,680 --> 01:49:11,320 Speaker 1: by the way, with Evan McMullen, who was a stealth 1857 01:49:11,360 --> 01:49:14,479 Speaker 1: Democrat run on a on an ostensibly Republican ticket. He's 1858 01:49:14,479 --> 01:49:17,719 Speaker 1: a Democrat, he's not a Republican. Because he's now talking 1859 01:49:17,760 --> 01:49:19,760 Speaker 1: about the greatness of Beto O'Rourke. If you think Beto 1860 01:49:19,760 --> 01:49:23,000 Speaker 1: O'Rourke is great, Robert O'Rourke. If you think he's great, 1861 01:49:23,000 --> 01:49:25,360 Speaker 1: you're a Democrat. I mean, that's you're allowed to think that, 1862 01:49:25,760 --> 01:49:28,120 Speaker 1: but don't lie about what you are. And Bill Crystal 1863 01:49:28,240 --> 01:49:30,479 Speaker 1: tried to put that guy forward and I had him 1864 01:49:30,479 --> 01:49:34,679 Speaker 1: on this show, and I to this day regret not 1865 01:49:35,240 --> 01:49:38,599 Speaker 1: well diving deeper. I guess, but I couldn't tell the future. 1866 01:49:38,680 --> 01:49:42,160 Speaker 1: So he sounded conservative. He's very anti Trump, but it 1867 01:49:42,200 --> 01:49:44,960 Speaker 1: turns out it was all really a dodge. I mean, 1868 01:49:45,000 --> 01:49:49,479 Speaker 1: it was all a ruse, a hustle. So that's something 1869 01:49:49,560 --> 01:49:52,440 Speaker 1: that that really bothers me. I hate, I hate dishonesty 1870 01:49:52,439 --> 01:49:54,640 Speaker 1: about what people are and what they stand for. To you, 1871 01:49:54,720 --> 01:49:56,760 Speaker 1: that's gonna be it for today. Thank you so much 1872 01:49:56,760 --> 01:49:58,479 Speaker 1: for being here in the Hut.
