1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:04,080
Speaker 1: Welcome everybody to the Monday edition of the Clay Travis

2
00:00:04,080 --> 00:00:08,399
Speaker 1: and Buck Sexton Show. I am back from vacation. Clay

3
00:00:08,480 --> 00:00:10,479
Speaker 1: held it down, and we've got a lot of big

4
00:00:10,520 --> 00:00:13,760
Speaker 1: news to talk to you about here. I will say, Clay,

5
00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:18,400
Speaker 1: some people are saying Highland's North Carolina, beautiful place, beautiful place,

6
00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:23,079
Speaker 1: big fan. But I had to spend my morning today

7
00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:28,040
Speaker 1: in preparation for the show, watching a doozy of a

8
00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:31,000
Speaker 1: press conference. I think that's a fair way to describe it.

9
00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:34,200
Speaker 1: The biggest takeaway from it, although there are many takeaways,

10
00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:38,120
Speaker 1: and we shall describe in some detail for you what's

11
00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:43,800
Speaker 1: going on here, But the big, biggest, single takeaway is

12
00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:50,720
Speaker 1: that President Trump has decided that he will invoke his

13
00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:54,680
Speaker 1: Section seven forty of the Home Rule Act Power for

14
00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:58,520
Speaker 1: the District of Columbia Washington, d C. Which gives the

15
00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:03,000
Speaker 1: President of the United States the ability to commander the

16
00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:07,360
Speaker 1: Metro Police Department, which is the local police in Washington,

17
00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:13,440
Speaker 1: d C. Because of an emergency situation. We have the

18
00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:17,319
Speaker 1: President describing this. Actually, let's let you hear from President

19
00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:20,920
Speaker 1: Trump directly on this. It was quite a moment. This

20
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:22,760
Speaker 1: has cut one play under.

21
00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:25,120
Speaker 2: The authorities vested in me as the President of the

22
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:28,640
Speaker 2: United States, I'm officially invoking Section seventy forty of the

23
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:32,319
Speaker 2: District of Columbia Home Rule Act, you know what that is,

24
00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:39,200
Speaker 2: and placing the DC Metropolitan Police Department under direct federal control.

25
00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:42,280
Speaker 2: And you'll be meeting the people that will be directly

26
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:48,680
Speaker 2: involved with that. Very good people, but they're tough and

27
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:52,720
Speaker 2: they know what's happening, and they've done it before. In addition,

28
00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:56,560
Speaker 2: I'm deploying the National Guard to help re establish law

29
00:01:56,720 --> 00:02:00,720
Speaker 2: order of public safety in Washington, DC, and they're.

30
00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:02,400
Speaker 3: Going to be allowed to do their job properly.

31
00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:06,920
Speaker 1: This is a big move from the President. I'd say

32
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:10,560
Speaker 1: I really like this and support this, and we'll get

33
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 1: into some of the details of this, Clay, but essentially

34
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:18,840
Speaker 1: the President is saying enough is enough DC, which, as

35
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:21,200
Speaker 1: we are very honest with you, I am fond of

36
00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:23,960
Speaker 1: the district, as is Clay. We've both lived there. Clay

37
00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:27,120
Speaker 1: went to college there. I live there as a CIA

38
00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:29,120
Speaker 1: analyst way back in the day, and then later on

39
00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:32,200
Speaker 1: in life as a media personality for a short while,

40
00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:34,440
Speaker 1: so we both spent a lot of time in DC.

41
00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:40,640
Speaker 1: The crime situation there is way too high. Let's just

42
00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:43,680
Speaker 1: put it that way, Clay. They're running all these stories. Now, oh,

43
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:46,760
Speaker 1: crime is the lowest it is. Don't we all want

44
00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:50,639
Speaker 1: there to be no crime in our nation's capital. Shouldn't

45
00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:53,040
Speaker 1: this be something where we can get some degree and

46
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:55,560
Speaker 1: we'll get into why there isn't bipartisan agreement. There are

47
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:59,760
Speaker 1: a number of reasons for this, but there's a whole

48
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:04,960
Speaker 1: I think of options and opportunities here to bring the

49
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:08,359
Speaker 1: crime level down to Tokyo levels. I mean, that's really

50
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:11,079
Speaker 1: what we would like to see instead of We've had

51
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:15,400
Speaker 1: fewer carjackings by fifteen year olds, fewer people shot and

52
00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:17,959
Speaker 1: murdered in the streets of our nation's capital for no reason.

53
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:21,280
Speaker 1: How about shooting for none, Clay. How about deciding that

54
00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:23,920
Speaker 1: we're not going to allow this madness to continue? Because

55
00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:26,640
Speaker 1: you and I are both familiar with it. DC was

56
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:30,440
Speaker 1: always more dangerous when I lived there than post New

57
00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:33,519
Speaker 1: York City, post Giuliani. Rather New York City, It wasn't

58
00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:36,680
Speaker 1: even close. DC was always a far more rough place

59
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:39,280
Speaker 1: to be starting around the early two thousands.

60
00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:42,440
Speaker 4: This is an example of something that Trump is doing

61
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 4: that should have one hundred percent approval, that Democrats will

62
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:49,200
Speaker 4: automatically hate, and I think It's indicative of why the

63
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:52,800
Speaker 4: Democrat brand is in the toilet, because whether you are

64
00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:55,640
Speaker 4: a Democrat, Republican, or an independent, or just somebody who

65
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:58,840
Speaker 4: doesn't vote at all, you should want our nation's capital

66
00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:01,920
Speaker 4: to be safe, no matter what your politics are. You

67
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 4: should want big cities in this country to be safe everywhere.

68
00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:09,280
Speaker 4: And I think Trump sees Washington, d C. As a

69
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:12,240
Speaker 4: jewel of the nation. As we talked about last week.

70
00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:15,240
Speaker 4: If you look at the rates of murder in DC

71
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:20,480
Speaker 4: compared to virtually every major city in the world, DC

72
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:26,520
Speaker 4: is off the charts unacceptably violent. And you've got Judge

73
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:30,400
Speaker 4: Jenine who is in position now as the DC Attorney

74
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:35,320
Speaker 4: of record there. And I think what we are basically

75
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:39,280
Speaker 4: seeing is Trump wants to fix problems that exist everywhere.

76
00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 4: And even in that press conference said, hey, we've solved

77
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:47,200
Speaker 4: everything at the border. We are in the process of

78
00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:51,800
Speaker 4: resolving many different issues associated with trade and balances and

79
00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:57,159
Speaker 4: economic issues and everything else. But even in that press conference,

80
00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:00,680
Speaker 4: which was a tour to force let's be on, we

81
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:03,680
Speaker 4: went from Joe Biden can't even take a question from

82
00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:06,359
Speaker 4: the press without it being written out in advance on

83
00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:09,520
Speaker 4: a note card for him to as you said, Buck, Yes,

84
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:13,119
Speaker 4: the ostensible purpose of the press conference was to discuss DC.

85
00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:16,880
Speaker 4: But Trump took questions on China, He took questions on

86
00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:21,640
Speaker 4: Putin and Russia and the situation in Ukraine, basically everything

87
00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:25,720
Speaker 4: under the sun, with no preconceived, to my knowledge, knowledge

88
00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:28,840
Speaker 4: of where the questions were coming, and he handled them

89
00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:29,640
Speaker 4: with a plum.

90
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:33,039
Speaker 1: Right, we'll address that as well. He talked because, of

91
00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 1: course the press asked him about the big thing on

92
00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:42,120
Speaker 1: the horizon, the planned meeting in Alaska of Vladimir Putin

93
00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:44,320
Speaker 1: and Donald Trump to try to bring an end to

94
00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:48,279
Speaker 1: the Ukraine conflict. Trump got into some specifics. There also

95
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:52,640
Speaker 1: some discussion of well Trump's brought up the transports issue, Clay,

96
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:57,200
Speaker 1: basically just to be like, like you say, they are yeah,

97
00:05:57,279 --> 00:05:59,240
Speaker 1: just you guys are nuts. Just to be clear, Democrats,

98
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:01,760
Speaker 1: you're nuts. Trump just threw that in. I appreciate that.

99
00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:04,000
Speaker 1: You know, you had to was season the sauce a

100
00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 1: little bit, you know, you had to spice it up.

101
00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:07,719
Speaker 1: He's like, hey, by the way, you are the lunatics

102
00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:09,799
Speaker 1: who think that men should play against women in sports.

103
00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:12,880
Speaker 1: So not really that into hearing what the Democrats have

104
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:16,400
Speaker 1: to say on any particular issue, but he also talked

105
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:19,800
Speaker 1: about Nvidia with a deal to sell chips to China.

106
00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:22,240
Speaker 1: He addressed some of the concerns around that. So to

107
00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:25,680
Speaker 1: your point, Clay covered a whole range of issues and

108
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:28,400
Speaker 1: also makes jokes and it's funny and the whole thing.

109
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:30,279
Speaker 1: I mean, it was a trump athon, Okay, it was

110
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:33,600
Speaker 1: a trump bonanza up there. He also had Pete Hegseth

111
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:37,279
Speaker 1: in the mix, Pam Bondi, the Attorney General, Judge Janine.

112
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:40,520
Speaker 1: This is very important. Judge Janine is the US Attorney

113
00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 1: for the District of Columbia. Because there's the police and

114
00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:47,240
Speaker 1: the prosecution components of this that have to get aligned,

115
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:49,680
Speaker 1: and that's a big deal. But we've all seen I'm

116
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:52,200
Speaker 1: sure law and Order, right. I mean, I remember waking

117
00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:54,200
Speaker 1: up hungover in college and I think I would watch

118
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:56,160
Speaker 1: sometimes like six hours of Law and Order in a

119
00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:59,440
Speaker 1: row on a rainy Saturday. Law and order is addictive,

120
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:03,760
Speaker 1: but it's the police, you know, the detectives who investigate crimes,

121
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,000
Speaker 1: and then the prosecutors who handle them. It's actually a

122
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:08,960
Speaker 1: good way to think about these issues, Clay. The issue

123
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 1: isn't just in DC getting to the arrest and Judge

124
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:15,800
Speaker 1: Janede made this very clear. It's what happens to the

125
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:19,920
Speaker 1: people that do the very bad thing once the prosecution

126
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:23,440
Speaker 1: is supposed to bring a case against them. And a

127
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:28,600
Speaker 1: huge problem they have in DC is you have these youths.

128
00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:31,160
Speaker 1: I think that's how they're generally referred to in the press,

129
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:36,520
Speaker 1: people under eighteen who are doing very adult crimes. And

130
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:38,760
Speaker 1: you know this, this gets into this area of Okay,

131
00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:42,560
Speaker 1: if you shot somebody and didn't kill them and you're seventeen,

132
00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:47,320
Speaker 1: Judge Janine says that you can get probation for this.

133
00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 1: This is stunning, right, I mean, if you don't murder somebody,

134
00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:55,080
Speaker 1: rape somebody, you know, forcible rape somebody. There's a few

135
00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:58,160
Speaker 1: other crimes that she pointed out, you can be sixteen

136
00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:01,280
Speaker 1: or seventeen and get that. Essentially is you know, you

137
00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:04,160
Speaker 1: give me fourteen or fifteen. By the way, what the

138
00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:06,680
Speaker 1: heck is going on when we have a society that

139
00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:09,000
Speaker 1: is producing fourteen year olds who are trying to carjack

140
00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:11,080
Speaker 1: people fourteen year olds?

141
00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:14,600
Speaker 4: This is that I went usually with DC. I think

142
00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:17,560
Speaker 4: it's just there's no dads in homes. I mean, I

143
00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:19,720
Speaker 4: think you really get down when you have a fourteen

144
00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:23,160
Speaker 4: year old trying to carjack somebody it's a fundamental failure

145
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:26,960
Speaker 4: of parenting because those kids are so young. That should

146
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,680
Speaker 4: never be happening. And I think it's that we've knocked

147
00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:31,600
Speaker 4: dads out of so many of these homes. I bet

148
00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:34,560
Speaker 4: every fourteen year old in America almost that is getting

149
00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:36,280
Speaker 4: arrested for something like carjacking.

150
00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:39,400
Speaker 1: There is no dat at home. I'm almost one hundred percent. Well,

151
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:43,240
Speaker 1: that's your going now to even more upstream or root

152
00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:47,440
Speaker 1: cause of the problem. And that's obviously true. And the

153
00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:50,960
Speaker 1: data on this about and people get very upset about this,

154
00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:53,040
Speaker 1: but it is just the truth. We're talking data. When

155
00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:55,280
Speaker 1: we talk data and statistics. I don't really care if

156
00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:58,000
Speaker 1: people get upset by it. In fact, it's probably a

157
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:01,560
Speaker 1: good thing that people hear data and statistics that upsets them,

158
00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:05,360
Speaker 1: because they need to hear it. If they don't already

159
00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:07,640
Speaker 1: know it, or they don't already understand the implications, they

160
00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:10,240
Speaker 1: need to hear it, which basically means almost every Democrat

161
00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:13,360
Speaker 1: that you know. I will say, Clay, I have I

162
00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:17,400
Speaker 1: have a close, close friend who, let's just say, has

163
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:20,440
Speaker 1: been very close to the mayor of DC. And the

164
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:25,839
Speaker 1: interesting thing here is that Mayor Bowser would like crime

165
00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:28,560
Speaker 1: to go down and would like to do more. What

166
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:32,280
Speaker 1: prevents her from doing more? Politically speaking, I'm not saying that,

167
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:35,160
Speaker 1: you know, I'm not absolving her here, you know, but Trump.

168
00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:37,640
Speaker 1: You'll notice Trump isn't as hard on Bowser as he

169
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:42,040
Speaker 1: is on like a Gavin you know, Gavin Newscum or

170
00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:45,280
Speaker 1: you know, the mayor of Chicago. I mean, there are

171
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:49,040
Speaker 1: there are people who are in positions of authority in

172
00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:53,119
Speaker 1: this country, mayors and police commissioners specifically, and city councils

173
00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:56,840
Speaker 1: who are just flatly insane. They're pro crime. They're all Democrats.

174
00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:59,719
Speaker 1: There are no Republicans who are actively pro crime. There

175
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:03,720
Speaker 1: are Democrats who are actively pro crime. And the problem

176
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,560
Speaker 1: in a place like DC is that the city council

177
00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:13,000
Speaker 1: is insane, and there are considerable contingents of the black

178
00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:20,560
Speaker 1: community in DC that react very angrily and politically to

179
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:24,520
Speaker 1: any crackdown by police. So what this does is it

180
00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:28,720
Speaker 1: creates a situation where President Trump, now by federalizing this issue,

181
00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:33,360
Speaker 1: could dramatically bring down the crime rate in our nation's capital.

182
00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:37,280
Speaker 1: I said could, but it is possible, and then you

183
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:40,600
Speaker 1: would have Bowser the mayor. Obviously she's a black woman,

184
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:43,040
Speaker 1: she's the mayor of DC been mayor for years, is

185
00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:46,480
Speaker 1: in a sense insulated from the political blowback among some

186
00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:49,640
Speaker 1: members of the black community for the crackdown that will

187
00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:52,760
Speaker 1: make all members of the black community and all DC

188
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:57,480
Speaker 1: residents safer. This is this goes very deep. But this

189
00:10:57,559 --> 00:11:01,120
Speaker 1: is the problem. Why is there such pushback because Democrats

190
00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:04,560
Speaker 1: play this game and elected democrats, the City Council plays

191
00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:07,240
Speaker 1: this game. Clay, people forget this, and we can get

192
00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:09,600
Speaker 1: into a little more of the Home Rule of nineteen

193
00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:12,640
Speaker 1: seventy three Act and how to know how to affect DC.

194
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:16,840
Speaker 1: Congress has ultimate responsibility for DC. There is the Home

195
00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:20,080
Speaker 1: Rule means that there's the mayor, and there is a

196
00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:24,640
Speaker 1: local jurisdictional situation for and you know, you can vote

197
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:26,240
Speaker 1: for the people in charge of your day to life

198
00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:30,600
Speaker 1: in DC. But the President Trump actually has some specific

199
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:34,640
Speaker 1: authorities as the president, especially under an emergency declaration like this.

200
00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:38,760
Speaker 1: Congress not only can deal with budgets in the district,

201
00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:43,760
Speaker 1: Congress can override legislation passed by the DC City Council.

202
00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:46,680
Speaker 1: And I would remind everybody that I forget the year,

203
00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:49,840
Speaker 1: but it was pretty recent where Congress stepped in to

204
00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:56,960
Speaker 1: override the DC City Council making the punishment for carjacking less. Yeah,

205
00:11:57,520 --> 00:12:01,440
Speaker 1: too crazy even for Democrats. So this gives you a

206
00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:03,360
Speaker 1: sense of what they're dealing with Clay in the city

207
00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:05,720
Speaker 1: of well in our capital city.

208
00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:08,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, and here is the data that I think ultimately

209
00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:10,840
Speaker 4: brings this home. Let me hit you with this as

210
00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:13,880
Speaker 4: we uh, as we go into the first break, and

211
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:15,640
Speaker 4: I would just say open phone lines. By the way,

212
00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:17,720
Speaker 4: we're going to talk with Congressman Jim Jordan at the

213
00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:18,559
Speaker 4: bottom of the hour.

214
00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:19,840
Speaker 1: He's got some news.

215
00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:22,760
Speaker 4: We'll discuss what he thinks about whether there should be

216
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:26,280
Speaker 4: more control taken over of DC, among other things. But Buck,

217
00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:28,839
Speaker 4: we mentioned this last week. The White House just shared this.

218
00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:32,400
Speaker 4: I want anyone out there to defend this, regardless of

219
00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:33,080
Speaker 4: your politics.

220
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:34,920
Speaker 1: Eight hundred and two A two two eight A two.

221
00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:38,840
Speaker 4: The twenty twenty four murder rate in Washington, DC was

222
00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:42,840
Speaker 4: twenty seven point five per one hundred thousand, Right residents,

223
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:46,720
Speaker 4: listen to these other cities that aren't exactly known for

224
00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:50,920
Speaker 4: being wildly safe. Bogata, Columbia you heard Trump talking about

225
00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:56,280
Speaker 4: at fifteen point one, Mexico City ten point six. So

226
00:12:56,480 --> 00:13:01,280
Speaker 4: our murder rate is nearly triple what the Mexico City

227
00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:02,719
Speaker 4: murder rate is listen to some of.

228
00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:06,640
Speaker 1: These other London's is easy because you can barely measure

229
00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:08,760
Speaker 1: it per one hundred thousand, which is what they usually do.

230
00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:11,120
Speaker 1: P one hundred thousand homicides is how you get these numbers.

231
00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:12,840
Speaker 1: London's is one.

232
00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:17,720
Speaker 4: Yes, one, but I mean Islamabad do we think, hey,

233
00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:22,720
Speaker 4: this is gonna Let's see nine point two, Lima Peru

234
00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:27,360
Speaker 4: seven point six, Paris one point six. You heard buck

235
00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:32,960
Speaker 4: mention that London is won, Madrid is under one, Delhi

236
00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:36,640
Speaker 4: in India is one point five, Havana, Cuba is one

237
00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:39,680
Speaker 4: point five. Why would anyone I think this is a

238
00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:42,319
Speaker 4: sign of how broken Democrat ideas are. We've got a

239
00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:46,199
Speaker 4: clip we'll share it for you eventually of MSNBC coming in,

240
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:47,800
Speaker 4: an analyst coming on and saying, well, this is the

241
00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:51,200
Speaker 4: evidence of Trump's racism, that he's trying to crack down

242
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:55,360
Speaker 4: on crime and Washington DC. Their ideas are broken and

243
00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:57,800
Speaker 4: they don't want good things to happen if Trump is

244
00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:00,439
Speaker 4: involved in them, because that points out how they were

245
00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:01,560
Speaker 4: unable to fix things.

246
00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:04,600
Speaker 1: To one of the initial points you made, Clay, this

247
00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:09,559
Speaker 1: is something that everyone reasonably rationally should be behind. Democrats

248
00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:13,400
Speaker 1: won't and this is both the right thing to do

249
00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:16,040
Speaker 1: and the smart thing to do. The right thing to

250
00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:20,560
Speaker 1: do because it'll mean fewer carjackings, fewer murders, fewer rapes,

251
00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:25,720
Speaker 1: fewer gang stabbings, which will disproportionately, by the way, mean

252
00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:28,240
Speaker 1: less of that happening in the black community in DC.

253
00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:31,360
Speaker 1: I already gave the stats. We know what the stats are.

254
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:34,120
Speaker 1: Over ninety percent of those who are incarcerated in the

255
00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:37,800
Speaker 1: District of Columbia for crimes committed there are black. So

256
00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:42,000
Speaker 1: it will disproportionately affect members of the black community who

257
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:43,880
Speaker 1: are law abiding, who want to be able to go

258
00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:45,440
Speaker 1: on the metro or go to work, or just walk

259
00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:48,080
Speaker 1: through the park and not be stabbed or attack. And

260
00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:50,360
Speaker 1: it's going to be high profile. This is why it's smart.

261
00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:53,000
Speaker 1: It's going to be something that even the press is

262
00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:55,520
Speaker 1: going to have to cover. They don't want to, but

263
00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:57,840
Speaker 1: they will because it is our nation's capital and they

264
00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:01,160
Speaker 1: live there. Where does the media live New York and DC?

265
00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:03,720
Speaker 1: If this is going on in their backyard, guess what

266
00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:05,240
Speaker 1: they're going to have to deal with this? And this

267
00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:08,760
Speaker 1: can show the failure of Democrat policies on crime and

268
00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:11,840
Speaker 1: the success of Trump and the Republicans on this issue

269
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:14,120
Speaker 1: in a way that will become unavoidable. I think it's

270
00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:16,240
Speaker 1: a really big deal, a big moment. I'm very pleased

271
00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:18,400
Speaker 1: to see the president doing it. Let's talk about gold

272
00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:21,920
Speaker 1: for a second. Gold is the precious metal that people

273
00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 1: have gone for centuries to find to start their fortune

274
00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:29,320
Speaker 1: right because we all know that gold is valuable. It

275
00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:32,720
Speaker 1: has been valuable for really all of human civilization. Owning

276
00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:35,480
Speaker 1: gold is good, it makes sense, and physical gold, the

277
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:38,800
Speaker 1: kind you can hold in your hand, is a smart investment.

278
00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:41,120
Speaker 1: I've been buying gold for over a decade now, and

279
00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:43,640
Speaker 1: you know you can invest in your four oh one

280
00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:46,840
Speaker 1: k or ira with gold. You can buy a gold

281
00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:48,960
Speaker 1: ira or four o one k. Thanks to our friends

282
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:51,520
Speaker 1: at the Birch Gold Group. In just the last year,

283
00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:54,640
Speaker 1: gold's value has increased some forty three percent. That's just

284
00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:57,160
Speaker 1: data available for anyone to pull. Take a look at themselves.

285
00:15:57,440 --> 00:16:00,680
Speaker 1: Forty three percent in a year. We're waiting for Trump's

286
00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:02,560
Speaker 1: economy to fully blossom, but there's still a lot of

287
00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:04,960
Speaker 1: spending and a lot of challenges long term. You need

288
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:07,640
Speaker 1: to take action for You can't rely on what the

289
00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:10,480
Speaker 1: federal government's doing, no matter how good this administration is

290
00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:13,000
Speaker 1: and they've been pretty fantastic. You have to take action

291
00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:15,880
Speaker 1: for yourself. That's why Birch Gold is there for you.

00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:13,560
Speaker 6: keep of staff down in that neck of the woods.

312
00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:14,800
Speaker 6: So yeah, beautiful down there.

313
00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:18,000
Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm spreading, I'm spreading the word. So Congressman,

314
00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:21,040
Speaker 1: let's let's dive right into this. I watched the whole

315
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:25,760
Speaker 1: press conference this morning, which was enthralling, both both very

316
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:29,840
Speaker 1: informative and enthralling. Trump in Fuego. But all this issue

317
00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:31,640
Speaker 1: of crime. You know, you got two guys here, Clay

318
00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:35,359
Speaker 1: and Buck, who have both lived in d C. And

319
00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:38,440
Speaker 1: I feel very passionately about this. That place should be

320
00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:40,320
Speaker 1: a lot safer than it is. It's go time.

321
00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:44,040
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, no, I agree, And the President is I

322
00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:45,880
Speaker 6: think that made the right decision. And I think he's

323
00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:47,680
Speaker 6: going to notify Congress because he can do this for

324
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:49,879
Speaker 6: like a month, so thirty days, I think is what

325
00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:51,800
Speaker 6: the law says, and then then of course has to

326
00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:53,440
Speaker 6: be a vote. But I think he's going to send

327
00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:56,800
Speaker 6: you know what, his what what he you know, his

328
00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:59,200
Speaker 6: justification for why this is necessary, and I certainly think

329
00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:02,399
Speaker 6: it is. What do we capitals around the world. We

330
00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:05,200
Speaker 6: have the highest violent crime rate of just about amy,

331
00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:07,879
Speaker 6: I believe, and of course we know what's happened in

332
00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:09,720
Speaker 6: day to day. We even happened to had what a

333
00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:13,879
Speaker 6: member of Congress a while back get their car taken

334
00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:16,520
Speaker 6: from him. So I think that's justified. And then it'll

335
00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:18,720
Speaker 6: come to Congress, and frankly, I think we should support

336
00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:20,520
Speaker 6: the president if he thinks this is something that needs

337
00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:23,800
Speaker 6: to go longer than the thirty days.

338
00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:26,960
Speaker 4: You Congressman, appreciate you coming on. I just want to

339
00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:30,880
Speaker 4: hit this because we talk about how crazy this is

340
00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:35,640
Speaker 4: in general, but whatever Trump does, Democrats line up to oppose.

341
00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:39,320
Speaker 4: This is the majority leader in the House for the

342
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:45,240
Speaker 4: Democrat Party. Hakeem Jefferies just tweeted violent crime in Washington,

343
00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:48,160
Speaker 4: d C Is at thirty year low. I think that's

344
00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:51,879
Speaker 4: very disputable. But let's go ahead and accept Donald Trump

345
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:55,240
Speaker 4: has no basis to take over the local police department

346
00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:59,400
Speaker 4: and zero credibility on the issue of law and order.

347
00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:00,719
Speaker 1: It lost.

348
00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:05,560
Speaker 4: I mean, even within the construct of craziness for Trump

349
00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:10,240
Speaker 4: derangement syndrome is being opposed to a lower crime rate

350
00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:14,880
Speaker 4: in Washington, d C. Staggering. To even see Democrats stand

351
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:15,880
Speaker 4: up in favor of.

352
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:20,000
Speaker 6: Now the left doesn't make sense. I always say, not

353
00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:22,520
Speaker 6: all Democrats are crazy, but the left that controlled their

354
00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:25,320
Speaker 6: party is, and they got all these just wild ideas,

355
00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:28,000
Speaker 6: and as you point out, Clay, they're just constantly against

356
00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:30,399
Speaker 6: the president that that Trump's arrangement syndrome is truly a

357
00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:34,359
Speaker 6: real phenomenon, no doubt about it. But yeah, this, you know,

358
00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:36,840
Speaker 6: think about all the people who come to our capital

359
00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:39,760
Speaker 6: as tourists, typically during the spring and sorrow spring months. Yeah,

360
00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:43,159
Speaker 6: during terry blossom when they're terry blossoms are pulled, the

361
00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:45,560
Speaker 6: number of people who come. They would like to know

362
00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:48,640
Speaker 6: that their their capital is safe. And more and more

363
00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:52,679
Speaker 6: we're hearing about things happening not only to citizen but

364
00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:55,439
Speaker 6: the actual members of Congress that are just wrong. So

365
00:19:55,960 --> 00:19:57,919
Speaker 6: you want a safe capital, you want to I think

366
00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:00,200
Speaker 6: everything the President said, you want a beautiful capital, want

367
00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:02,000
Speaker 6: to say capital, you want people to want to come

368
00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:04,959
Speaker 6: to your capital to celebrate the history of the greatest

369
00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:07,679
Speaker 6: country in the world. And I think that's all in

370
00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:11,520
Speaker 6: play here if we have this level of crime. So again,

371
00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:13,920
Speaker 6: I think the President is doing the common sense thing.

372
00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:16,840
Speaker 6: He says this all the time. It's the difference between

373
00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:19,840
Speaker 6: Republicans and Democrats the day, between conservatives and the left

374
00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:23,399
Speaker 6: is the difference between normal and crazy. And we're the

375
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:26,000
Speaker 6: common sense, normal party. They're now the Party of Crazy,

376
00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:29,120
Speaker 6: defund the police, let men compete against women in sports,

377
00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:32,560
Speaker 6: don't allow violent crime to happen in on and on

378
00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:35,560
Speaker 6: and go. So I think this is just consistent with

379
00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:37,840
Speaker 6: that common sense theme and a good move.

380
00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:41,520
Speaker 1: Speaking of common sense, or maybe the lack thereof congressmen

381
00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:44,040
Speaker 1: to the degree that you can speak to this, I

382
00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:46,240
Speaker 1: might ask you to name any of your colleagues in

383
00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:49,639
Speaker 1: the Congress. But the Democrats, you know, this is something

384
00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:52,120
Speaker 1: that does affect them because they got to walk around

385
00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:56,200
Speaker 1: and live in the environs of both Capitol Hill and Washington,

386
00:20:56,240 --> 00:20:59,400
Speaker 1: d C. Capitol Hill, sketchy stuff happens around They're really

387
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:02,960
Speaker 1: bad stuff happens around there on a far too regular basis.

388
00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:06,479
Speaker 1: Do they all privately admit that the capital has got

389
00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:10,240
Speaker 1: way too much crime? Or have they diluted themselves into it?

390
00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:10,560
Speaker 6: Really?

391
00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:11,960
Speaker 1: Is it a thirty year low?

392
00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:15,760
Speaker 6: Well, I think what happens buck is I mean, I

393
00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:17,720
Speaker 6: just think about you know, the way Polly and I

394
00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:20,240
Speaker 6: way we handle We don't go, we don't stray far

395
00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:22,480
Speaker 6: from the Capitol, and if you do, you're in a car.

396
00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:25,600
Speaker 6: So it's literally there are days where the most I'm

397
00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:29,000
Speaker 6: outside is a half a block from the Cannon House

398
00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:32,080
Speaker 6: office building. There's three you know, three office complex to

399
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:34,080
Speaker 6: the to the Capitol Hill Club, which is the half

400
00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:36,520
Speaker 6: a block away. Everything else it's actually either in the

401
00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:39,520
Speaker 6: building in the tunnel over to the Capitol. You're just

402
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:42,639
Speaker 6: not outside. So we live in this in somewhat of

403
00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:45,159
Speaker 6: a I think a bubble where we may not feel

404
00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:49,040
Speaker 6: what so many other citizens are feeling, what tourists are feeling. Now,

405
00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:51,160
Speaker 6: some people walk a little farther and they're a little

406
00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:53,439
Speaker 6: farther out in campus. My guess is they're a little nervous.

407
00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:56,280
Speaker 6: Particularly we've got late boats, late committee hearings, you're walking

408
00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:58,520
Speaker 6: home at night. So normally what we'll do is if

409
00:21:58,520 --> 00:21:59,960
Speaker 6: we got something like that and we're going to go

410
00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:01,760
Speaker 6: and where we're always in a car and we're getting

411
00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:03,720
Speaker 6: picked up right outside the garage or maybe even in

412
00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:06,399
Speaker 6: the garage there at at the Raver and office building.

413
00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:08,600
Speaker 6: So I think we live in a different world. But

414
00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:12,200
Speaker 6: for the families coming or federal employees who are working there,

415
00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:15,080
Speaker 6: like this young man worked for Doshan who was attacked,

416
00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:17,160
Speaker 6: I think that's a different story. But that's who we're

417
00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:19,280
Speaker 6: supposed to be serving. That's who we're supposed to be

418
00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:23,199
Speaker 6: protecting and that's what President Trump's decision is all about today.

419
00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:27,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, and we had a young intern I believe from Illinois,

420
00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:29,239
Speaker 4: if I'm not mistaken, who was shot and killed on

421
00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:31,640
Speaker 4: the street. I know it was a big deal on

422
00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:36,000
Speaker 4: Capitol Hill. Now also today your committee, I just came

423
00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:40,159
Speaker 4: from the Atlanta Braves. Your committee has sent letters to

424
00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:44,080
Speaker 4: the heads of the NHL, NFL, Major League Baseball, and

425
00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:50,160
Speaker 4: the NBA going after blackouts on television. Bus got brothers

426
00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:53,000
Speaker 4: who I better are frustrated by this. I know I

427
00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:56,199
Speaker 4: have been supremely frustrated by this, and many sports fans are.

428
00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:59,280
Speaker 4: It's getting more expensive and harder to watch. What are

429
00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:00,000
Speaker 4: you working on there?

430
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:04,639
Speaker 6: Yeah? Yeah, the whole system now is really complicated for

431
00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:08,400
Speaker 6: sports fans, and frankly, it's really expensive if you want

432
00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:11,119
Speaker 6: to watch your team play their games. You know, some

433
00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:13,560
Speaker 6: people want to buy the package and watch. But this

434
00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:16,040
Speaker 6: all stems from the nineteen sixty one Broadcasting Act, which

435
00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:18,560
Speaker 6: gave the n any Trust exemption to to the major

436
00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:21,359
Speaker 6: sports leagues. We understand that, but we're not in just

437
00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:24,359
Speaker 6: the broadcast world anymore. We got streaming, we got we

438
00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:27,280
Speaker 6: got all kinds of things. Cable streaming, you name it,

439
00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:30,399
Speaker 6: we have it, and so we're concerned about how this

440
00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:33,280
Speaker 6: impacts fans who who if you I think you tweeted

441
00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:35,840
Speaker 6: this out a play you want to watch your team

442
00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:37,760
Speaker 6: play every game, you want to buy a package. It

443
00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:40,120
Speaker 6: can cost as much as like a thousand bucks a year.

444
00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:42,639
Speaker 6: To what I remember growing up, I could watch the

445
00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:45,159
Speaker 6: Reds every weekend. Any game you wanted to see. The

446
00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:48,560
Speaker 6: Reds were on Cincinnati or Dayton television, you could watch that.

447
00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:50,879
Speaker 6: That's not always the case today because of the blackouts

448
00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:54,600
Speaker 6: and other things that take place. So that's our concern,

449
00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:58,520
Speaker 6: the how expensive it is, how complicated it is if

450
00:23:58,560 --> 00:23:59,960
Speaker 6: you want to watch and then all, well, you can

451
00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:02,520
Speaker 6: this game. But if you're you don't live in the market,

452
00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:05,240
Speaker 6: the actual network market, You're somewhere else, but you still

453
00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:07,040
Speaker 6: want to watch the team you grew up watching, and

454
00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:08,840
Speaker 6: they're blacked out in the city you now have because

455
00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:10,720
Speaker 6: they're not sold out for some other reason. It's like,

456
00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:13,000
Speaker 6: what is going on? So we just want to talk

457
00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:15,240
Speaker 6: to these folks, and it's it's a concern we have

458
00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:18,359
Speaker 6: with We've got concerns with college sports. That's a slightly

459
00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:21,040
Speaker 6: different thing there. We're trying to work on that Americans

460
00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:24,080
Speaker 6: love sports. They love to watch their team, their their college,

461
00:24:24,119 --> 00:24:26,320
Speaker 6: their their pro team. So we just want to talk

462
00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:29,520
Speaker 6: with these major league or these uh these professional sports

463
00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:31,359
Speaker 6: leagues and see what's exactly going on.

464
00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:35,000
Speaker 4: Are you Are you optimistic by the way that you're

465
00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:37,920
Speaker 4: going to get an answer? Trust Bill Past the Score Act.

466
00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:41,119
Speaker 4: I think it's called to help and regulate what's going

467
00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:43,720
Speaker 4: to happen with college athletics in particular.

468
00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:46,159
Speaker 6: Well, it's out of the committee and we have a

469
00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:48,119
Speaker 6: we have a handful of Democrats who it had co

470
00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:50,440
Speaker 6: sponsored it. So I do think we have a real

471
00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:52,720
Speaker 6: chance to get this done. And I think we talked

472
00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:55,600
Speaker 6: you know a few weeks back. Are our focus when

473
00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:58,199
Speaker 6: we started this. We want to maintain real competition. I

474
00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:00,800
Speaker 6: just have a few teams with all the money always dominate.

475
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:04,240
Speaker 6: We want real competition. We want to maintain opportunities. So

476
00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:07,440
Speaker 6: we're concerned about women's sports and particularly Olympic sports. The

477
00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:09,679
Speaker 6: USOC has been in talk to us about the direction

478
00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:12,520
Speaker 6: college sports are headed if we didn't do something, and

479
00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:15,240
Speaker 6: we also want to try to remember that we're this

480
00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:17,640
Speaker 6: is supposed to be about giving an education as well.

481
00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:21,200
Speaker 6: In this current environment, you got people playing seven years

482
00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:23,240
Speaker 6: with red shirts and Olympic red shirts and different things,

483
00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:25,880
Speaker 6: and making all kinds of money and transferring five times

484
00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:28,320
Speaker 6: and never getting a degree. So that's what we're trying

485
00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:31,160
Speaker 6: to do. We think that bill is good. We're hopeful

486
00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:32,399
Speaker 6: it's going to be on the floor. We get it

487
00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:34,080
Speaker 6: past the House and then move on. And we think

488
00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:38,080
Speaker 6: our legislation, frankly, is also entirely consistent with the executive

489
00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:42,160
Speaker 6: order that President Trump put out, who's also very concerned

490
00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:45,000
Speaker 6: about the Olympic movement, Olympic sports, and the fact that

491
00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:47,200
Speaker 6: we you know, we got the Olympics coming here in

492
00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:49,520
Speaker 6: a few years. To the United States.

493
00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:52,639
Speaker 1: Congress and Jim Jordan, appreciate you, sir, Thanks for coming by.

494
00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:54,960
Speaker 6: You bet guys, take care, keep up the good work.

495
00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:58,560
Speaker 1: I'll look at this just in time for me to

496
00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:01,960
Speaker 1: take a little library action here. I got apex glue

497
00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:05,560
Speaker 1: to thione from my friends at Chalk. I'm believing glue

498
00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:08,000
Speaker 1: to thion. There's a lot of supplements that people, you know,

499
00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:09,960
Speaker 1: obviously talk to your doctor, a lot of supplements people

500
00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:12,440
Speaker 1: can take, though I take this one daily. I take

501
00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:14,439
Speaker 1: the chalk daily. It takes some glue thione. I'm a

502
00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:17,639
Speaker 1: big believer in Chalk's products. You got to take control

503
00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:21,480
Speaker 1: of your own health, and proper supplementation is critical in

504
00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:25,480
Speaker 1: that process. For so many of us, Chalk spelled cchoq

Speaker 1: you know what, because I'm remember to take it every

Speaker 1: day because I'm sitting here for three hours and I

529
00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:41,000
Speaker 5: hour we will jump into Trump a lot of answers

530
00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:45,840
Speaker 5: of questions relating to the big meeting scheduled in Alaska

531
00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:51,440
Speaker 5: with Putin surrounding the Ukraine Russia War. But last week

532
00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:55,720
Speaker 5: we talked a lot about the redistricting battle going on

533
00:27:56,240 --> 00:28:01,639
Speaker 5: surrounding Texas, and we talked about, look, whatever your ideas

534
00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:05,000
Speaker 5: are on this, the idea that of all the places

535
00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:09,280
Speaker 5: the Texan lawmakers could have fled to, they went to Illinois,

536
00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:12,119
Speaker 5: which is one of the most jerrymandered states in the

537
00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:13,120
Speaker 5: entire country.

538
00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:14,640
Speaker 1: Maybe JB.

539
00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:17,920
Speaker 4: Pritzker was paying for all their hotel rooms and everything else,

540
00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:23,000
Speaker 4: But even left wing media we're not able to overlook

541
00:28:23,160 --> 00:28:24,840
Speaker 4: how hypocritical that was.

542
00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:25,960
Speaker 1: And so JB.

543
00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:28,800
Speaker 4: Pritzker went on Meet the Press to try to make

544
00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:32,720
Speaker 4: the argument that this was unacceptable, and we've got a

545
00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:35,560
Speaker 4: couple of different cuts here of Meet the Press, I

546
00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:37,880
Speaker 4: refer to this, I think on social media buck as

547
00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:42,760
Speaker 4: the equivalent of the Russian judge disqualifying the Russian skater.

548
00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:46,360
Speaker 4: You've got the whole rig job in your favor, and

549
00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:50,440
Speaker 4: you still get absolutely lambasted like this. Here is cut

550
00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:54,800
Speaker 4: eleven Pritzer Pritzker getting challenged on Meet the Press.

551
00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:58,760
Speaker 7: Every major group degrades the fairness of congressional maps, gives

552
00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:03,280
Speaker 7: your state an aspect. Common Cause and nonpartisan government watchdog

553
00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:06,400
Speaker 7: even says your map, and I'm going to quote represents

554
00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:09,760
Speaker 7: a nearly perfect model for everything that can go wrong

555
00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:12,960
Speaker 7: with redistrictingt we talk about preserving democracy, How do you

556
00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:16,400
Speaker 7: preserve democracy if you're using the same tactics that you've

557
00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:18,320
Speaker 7: criticized Texas Republicans for.

558
00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:20,640
Speaker 3: What they're talking about is a distraction.

559
00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:24,920
Speaker 8: The reality is that the violation of people's voting rights

560
00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:27,120
Speaker 8: is what Texas is attempting to do.

561
00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:30,280
Speaker 3: That's what's wrong with their efforts right now.

562
00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:32,040
Speaker 8: And the fact that the President of the United States

563
00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:36,000
Speaker 8: knows it and nevertheless is asking them to do it.

564
00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:39,040
Speaker 8: That is what's wrong with what we're seeing right now.

565
00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:40,800
Speaker 8: Democracy is at stake.

566
00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:46,800
Speaker 1: This is cam Yeah, yeah, this is him thinking I

567
00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:51,600
Speaker 1: can just talking points steamroll the fact that my argument

568
00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:54,840
Speaker 1: is is trash. The argument that is being made by

569
00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:58,200
Speaker 1: Democrats on this, especially people like Pritzker who are coming

570
00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:01,560
Speaker 1: from a state like Illinois, is garbage. All they're saying

571
00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:03,560
Speaker 1: is I don't like when they do what I do.

572
00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:05,920
Speaker 1: When they do it, it's bad. When I do it,

573
00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:07,960
Speaker 1: it's good. That is the sum total of their argument,

574
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:10,920
Speaker 1: to be clear, there's nothing beyond that. It's Republicans are icky,

575
00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:13,440
Speaker 1: they're bad. I'm good, So I get to do the

576
00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:16,040
Speaker 1: things that they do, and you're supposed to like it

577
00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:17,280
Speaker 1: when I do it and not like it. And this

578
00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:21,440
Speaker 1: is like arguing with toddlers. They have nothing beyond that.

579
00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:23,880
Speaker 1: Notice he didn't even engage with what she said. You

580
00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:25,920
Speaker 1: don't have to know anything about Jerry Mandrick. If you

581
00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:28,720
Speaker 1: look at a map of congressional districts in Illinois, you'd

582
00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:31,680
Speaker 1: say to yourself, the heck is that? Yeahs bizarre?

583
00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:35,280
Speaker 4: And she followed up, but I do think this is

584
00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:38,760
Speaker 4: important what you just said. And I think the media

585
00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:41,239
Speaker 4: is getting a little bit embarrassed. Even as shameless as

586
00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:44,800
Speaker 4: they are, they're starting to recognize that Texas is just

587
00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:49,440
Speaker 4: catching up and doing what California and Illinois and New

588
00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:53,680
Speaker 4: York already did. In other words, the redistricting in Texas

589
00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:57,640
Speaker 4: is just lagging behind. And we had Greg Abbotta on

590
00:30:57,720 --> 00:31:00,160
Speaker 4: last week essentially in many ways making that argument and

591
00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:05,120
Speaker 4: buck to her credit, Kristin Welker followed up after that

592
00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:08,720
Speaker 4: non answer from JB. Pritzker and said, wait a minute,

593
00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:12,080
Speaker 4: President Trump, as we told you on this program, one

594
00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:15,720
Speaker 4: forty four percent of the vote in twenty twenty four,

595
00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:20,840
Speaker 4: it was look Texas and Florida were actually not as

596
00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:24,160
Speaker 4: competitive as Illinois was. I believe if you look at

597
00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:27,440
Speaker 4: the raw numbers, Illinois, which is a deep blue state,

598
00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:30,400
Speaker 4: Trump got almost forty five percent of the vote. Listen

599
00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:31,160
Speaker 4: to cut twelve.

600
00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:33,840
Speaker 7: I do want to look at the map of Illinois.

601
00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:34,760
Speaker 3: Let's take a look at this.

602
00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:38,040
Speaker 7: Despite President Trump winning forty four percent of the statewide

603
00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:41,440
Speaker 7: vote in twenty twenty four, Republicans hold only three of

604
00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:45,640
Speaker 7: Illinois's seventeen districts. These districts seem to be designed to

605
00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:49,320
Speaker 7: maximize democratic advantage. What do you say to those who

606
00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:52,920
Speaker 7: argue that it's hypocritical for you to criticize Texas for

607
00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:57,320
Speaker 7: partisanship when your state also drew mounts to boost your

608
00:31:57,360 --> 00:31:58,200
Speaker 7: party's standing.

609
00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:01,680
Speaker 8: Well, remember that what Texas is trying to do is

610
00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:04,120
Speaker 8: again violate the voting right sect.

611
00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:06,240
Speaker 3: You talked about how rare it is to do what

612
00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:07,320
Speaker 3: he's doing. Yes, it is.

613
00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:10,400
Speaker 8: What's even rarer is to do it at the behest

614
00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:13,800
Speaker 8: of the President of the United States, who's clearly attempting

615
00:32:13,840 --> 00:32:16,640
Speaker 8: to and says that he deserves.

616
00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:19,160
Speaker 3: To have five more seats. He's wrong.

617
00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:23,320
Speaker 1: I mean, the non arty's got. He doesn't even make

618
00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:23,840
Speaker 1: an argument.

619
00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:27,800
Speaker 4: I just look at so many of these political figures,

620
00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:31,160
Speaker 4: and there are Republicans in this camp too. They're just

621
00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:36,920
Speaker 4: not serious, intellectual, intelligent individuals who should be representing us.

622
00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:37,520
Speaker 1: I mean, JB.

623
00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:42,440
Speaker 4: Pritzker is supposed to be one of the four runner favorites,

624
00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:45,800
Speaker 4: four Democrats in twenty twenty eight. He's been elected multiple times,

625
00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:49,520
Speaker 4: I believe already in Illinois. His daddy's a billionaire, and

626
00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:53,920
Speaker 4: so he's a billionaire. He's not an impressive person. And

627
00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:58,160
Speaker 4: to go on knowing that these questions are coming. First

628
00:32:58,160 --> 00:33:00,840
Speaker 4: of all, if I were advising jb P. I would

629
00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:04,440
Speaker 4: have said, hey, moron, we shouldn't be the place that

630
00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:07,360
Speaker 4: is hosting all these Texas democrats. I know you want

631
00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:10,200
Speaker 4: to get your face on television, but you're just going

632
00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:15,600
Speaker 4: to expose our hypocrisy. And when Kristen Welker is pointing

633
00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:17,920
Speaker 4: it out, Kirsten Welker whatever her first name is, is

634
00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:21,120
Speaker 4: pointing it out on Meet the Press, you know that

635
00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:23,760
Speaker 4: you've really engaged in hypocritical behavior.

636
00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:26,040
Speaker 1: This is this is where you're getting to the we've

637
00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:29,760
Speaker 1: been to the border level when when you have journalists

638
00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:32,680
Speaker 1: who are friendly journalists and you know, journals, we can

639
00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:36,880
Speaker 1: all it's obviously in quotes, but when they won't go

640
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:39,320
Speaker 1: along because your argument is so dumb that it will

641
00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:42,160
Speaker 1: make them look dumb too. That's the line here that

642
00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:44,600
Speaker 1: Pritzker is crossing the same thing he saw with Lester Hold,

643
00:33:44,600 --> 00:33:47,520
Speaker 1: and he's like, look, Kamala, I like you. You know,

644
00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:50,000
Speaker 1: I'm proud Lester Hold maybe is a little bit I

645
00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:52,480
Speaker 1: actually have a centrist but whatever put that aside. I

646
00:33:52,560 --> 00:33:55,480
Speaker 1: don't know, but clearly he like Kamala Harris, but he's

647
00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:57,160
Speaker 1: not going to sit there while she says we've been

648
00:33:57,200 --> 00:33:59,160
Speaker 1: to the border and he's not going to, you know,

649
00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:01,400
Speaker 1: clap for that for like that's normal, of course, not

650
00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:04,120
Speaker 1: right that he's not going to look like a moron

651
00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:07,400
Speaker 1: on her behalf. And even Welker, I think here is like, look, buddy,

652
00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:09,360
Speaker 1: you guys do what they do. So you got to

653
00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:10,960
Speaker 1: explain this because I don't want to sit here and

654
00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:13,520
Speaker 1: look dumb. I'll be partisan, but I don't want to

655
00:34:13,520 --> 00:34:16,400
Speaker 1: look like I don't have enough brain power to understand

656
00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:18,480
Speaker 1: the argument. So I'm going to have to ask you

657
00:34:18,520 --> 00:34:22,359
Speaker 1: this question. And Prisker's answers are absurd. I mean, this

658
00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:25,600
Speaker 1: is a guy who bought the governorship of a very

659
00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:29,600
Speaker 1: blue state and there's nothing impressive about him. I mean,

660
00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:33,880
Speaker 1: Pritzker HEAVYP needs to figure out better answers to questions

661
00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:38,200
Speaker 1: like this. HEAVYP is a great nickname, except he might

662
00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:42,000
Speaker 1: use it in a positive context. I just I do

663
00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:47,280
Speaker 1: think that what you're seeing here is Trump is delivering

664
00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:50,920
Speaker 1: a masterclass. Time after time Democrats try to argue and

665
00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:54,080
Speaker 1: they get embarrassed. And now we'll talk here in a

666
00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:57,279
Speaker 1: minute about the pivot that's going to happen with the

667
00:34:57,280 --> 00:35:01,719
Speaker 1: big conversation going on in Alaska on Friday, and just

668
00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:04,280
Speaker 1: as they are calling Trump a racist because he's trying

669
00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:07,200
Speaker 1: to decrease the amount of violent crime that's taking place

670
00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:11,040
Speaker 1: in DC. I guarantee you, no matter what happens on Friday,

671
00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:15,160
Speaker 1: they're going to say, oh, Trump is putin stooge. They're

672
00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:18,080
Speaker 1: going to try with the whole Russia collusion and argument again.

673
00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:22,200
Speaker 1: The problem for them, I think is Democrats have reached

674
00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:23,920
Speaker 1: the boy who cries Wolfe scenario.

675
00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:26,680
Speaker 4: We saw it in twenty twenty four. I thought they

676
00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:28,879
Speaker 4: would learn from it in the first two hundred days

677
00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:29,320
Speaker 4: of Trump.

678
00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:29,799
Speaker 1: They have not.

679
00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:33,520
Speaker 4: They've continued with the same arguments and they're failing time

680
00:35:33,560 --> 00:35:35,319
Speaker 4: after time. We'll get to some of your talkbacks by

681
00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:38,160
Speaker 4: the way close out the hour. We'll dive into the

682
00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:42,719
Speaker 4: Ukraine and Russia situation top of hour three, and more

683
00:35:42,920 --> 00:35:46,120
Speaker 4: all coming your way. But some of you may be

684
00:35:46,200 --> 00:35:50,920
Speaker 4: aware football is basically back. Preseason football is underway, and

685
00:35:50,960 --> 00:35:53,880
Speaker 4: that means that Buck's favorite player, George Pickles has taken

686
00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:57,560
Speaker 4: the field again a new and we're going to be

Speaker 5: iHeartRadio app or wherever you get your podcast.

00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:26,120
Speaker 1: Clay, have you heard of the Rio Reset?

714
00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:28,759
Speaker 9: Sounds like a trendy new workout, Buck, it.

715
00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:31,400
Speaker 1: Does, but it's actually a big summit going on in Brazil.

716
00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:34,800
Speaker 1: The formal name is BRICKS, which stands for Brazil, Russia, India,

717
00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:38,240
Speaker 1: China and South Africa. But they've just added five new members.

718
00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:41,360
Speaker 4: Smart move to stick with Bricks. We know what happens

719
00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:43,800
Speaker 4: when acronyms don't end. They confuse everyone.

720
00:37:43,840 --> 00:37:46,600
Speaker 1: Well, that's an understatement. Bricks is a group of emerging

721
00:37:46,600 --> 00:37:50,239
Speaker 1: economies hoping to increase their sway in the global financial order.

722
00:37:50,400 --> 00:37:52,760
Speaker 9: Now that sounds like the plot line of a movie.

723
00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:53,640
Speaker 9: I'm listening.

724
00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:57,280
Speaker 1: Philip Patrick is our Bruce Wayne. He's a precious metal

725
00:37:57,360 --> 00:38:00,439
Speaker 1: specialist and a spokesman for the Birch Gold Group. He's

726
00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:03,160
Speaker 1: on the ground in Rio getting the whole low down

727
00:38:03,200 --> 00:38:04,320
Speaker 1: on what's going on there.

728
00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:06,040
Speaker 9: Can he give us some inside intel?

729
00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:09,400
Speaker 1: Absolutely, He's been there since day one. In fact, a

730
00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:11,960
Speaker 1: major theme at the summit is how Bricks nations aim

731
00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:15,320
Speaker 1: to reduce reliance on the US dollar in global trade.

732
00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:17,920
Speaker 9: Yikes, that doesn't sound good. We got to get Philip

733
00:38:17,920 --> 00:38:18,520
Speaker 9: on the line.

734
00:38:18,640 --> 00:38:21,160
Speaker 1: Stat already did, and he left the Clay and Buck

735
00:38:21,239 --> 00:38:22,640
Speaker 1: audience this message.

736
00:38:23,080 --> 00:38:27,680
Speaker 10: The world is moving on from the dollar quietly but steadily.

737
00:38:28,120 --> 00:38:32,280
Speaker 10: These nations are making real progress towards reshaping global trade,

738
00:38:32,600 --> 00:38:36,200
Speaker 10: and the US dollar is no longer the centerpiece. That

739
00:38:36,320 --> 00:38:41,120
Speaker 10: shift doesn't happen overnight, but make no mistake, it's already begun.

740
00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:43,880
Speaker 1: Thank you, Philip. Protect the value of your savings account,

741

Speaker 1: ninety eight ninety eight ninety eight. All right, here we go,

750
00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:11,520
Speaker 1: Clay in Buck, continuing on our conversation of the most

751
00:39:11,560 --> 00:39:15,279
Speaker 1: important things going on today across this great land of

752
00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:17,799
Speaker 1: ours and around the world. As we said, Trump meeting

753
00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:21,680
Speaker 1: on Friday with Putin. He's gonna sit down with him

754
00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:24,680
Speaker 1: and try to hammer out some kind of a deal.

755
00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:26,640
Speaker 1: He says, they'll be land swaps. I watched the whole

756
00:39:26,640 --> 00:39:29,839
Speaker 1: press conference this morning, and it was, like I said,

757
00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:33,399
Speaker 1: both very informative and very entertaining. That's one thing about Trump.

758
00:39:33,480 --> 00:39:35,200
Speaker 1: This is the quick aside one thing about Trump that

759
00:39:35,239 --> 00:39:38,400
Speaker 1: when he's no longer president, I think everybody, everybody will miss.

760
00:39:38,960 --> 00:39:42,760
Speaker 1: Politics is never going to be as as at that level,

761
00:39:43,080 --> 00:39:46,440
Speaker 1: as amusing and engaging as it has been for us

762
00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:48,000
Speaker 1: in the Trump era. Like you're just not going to

763
00:39:48,080 --> 00:39:50,719
Speaker 1: have somebody I think very unlikely you're going to have

764
00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:54,279
Speaker 1: anybody who. I mean, Trump is just such a phenomenon

765
00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:58,279
Speaker 1: when it comes to just the things he says and

766
00:39:58,320 --> 00:40:00,719
Speaker 1: the way he says it and how he presents you know,

767
00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:04,360
Speaker 1: I remember even the excuse me, I remember during the

768
00:40:04,400 --> 00:40:07,920
Speaker 1: Obama years having to watch press conference so boring, so boring.

769
00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:11,840
Speaker 1: Remember watching Jay Carney, Everybody watching smarmy Jake Carney up

770
00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:15,160
Speaker 1: there isn't what the president thanks. It's like, ugh, it

771
00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:18,120
Speaker 1: was so boring. It was like that felt like a job.

772
00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:20,879
Speaker 1: Watching a Trump press conference is entertainment. It's not really

773
00:40:20,920 --> 00:40:23,080
Speaker 1: a job. It's like I'm getting paid to watch soap

774
00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:25,200
Speaker 1: opera or something. I just want.

775
00:40:25,280 --> 00:40:30,359
Speaker 4: I mean to reiterate that enjoy it because I don't know,

776
00:40:30,840 --> 00:40:34,480
Speaker 4: not only just in terms of sheer enjoyment, but also

777
00:40:34,719 --> 00:40:37,920
Speaker 4: just in terms of trying to fix everything that's wrong

778
00:40:38,760 --> 00:40:44,280
Speaker 4: at once, which Trump is uniquely focused on. Most politicians

779
00:40:44,320 --> 00:40:48,160
Speaker 4: are obsessed with trying to get re elected. Trump is obviously,

780
00:40:48,160 --> 00:40:50,239
Speaker 4: I know he's saying, Hey, I'd like to run again,

781
00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:51,680
Speaker 4: and by the way, I think a lot of people

782
00:40:51,719 --> 00:40:54,160
Speaker 4: would like to vote for him again. His term is

783
00:40:54,160 --> 00:40:57,160
Speaker 4: going to end in January of twenty nine. And this

784
00:40:57,200 --> 00:40:59,040
Speaker 4: is what I've said on the show for some time,

785
00:40:59,080 --> 00:41:01,800
Speaker 4: and some of you immediately respond to tell me I'm crazy,

786
00:41:01,840 --> 00:41:04,600
Speaker 4: but I think you actually agree with this take. As

787
00:41:04,640 --> 00:41:07,880
Speaker 4: soon as the midterms are over, Democrats are going to

788
00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:11,400
Speaker 4: pivot from Trump is Hitler to Republicans are never going

789
00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:13,680
Speaker 4: to have a politician as good as Trump. He's a

790
00:41:14,200 --> 00:41:17,400
Speaker 4: one in a million. They're never gonna the MAGA base

791
00:41:17,480 --> 00:41:20,360
Speaker 4: is not going to follow the new guy. He's a

792
00:41:20,520 --> 00:41:23,960
Speaker 4: once in a lifetime president. That watch how quickly that

793
00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:28,239
Speaker 4: pivot happens from He's Hitler. Democracy is over to you, guys,

794
00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:30,480
Speaker 4: are never going to have anybody this good, and it's

795
00:41:30,520 --> 00:41:32,600
Speaker 4: going to make your head spind how quickly it happens.

796
00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:36,240
Speaker 4: But as soon as the midterms are over, boom, We're on.

797
00:41:36,239 --> 00:41:39,759
Speaker 1: To the next race. You know, I was. I told

798
00:41:39,800 --> 00:41:44,520
Speaker 1: everybody that I was in. I was in Highlands North Carolina,

799
00:41:45,120 --> 00:41:47,800
Speaker 1: not to be confused with the Highlands of Scotland. Highland

800
00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:50,879
Speaker 1: North Carolina. Highlands North Carolina. Loved it. You know what's

801
00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:53,440
Speaker 1: funny though, was we flew into Ashville. You know what

802
00:41:53,520 --> 00:41:57,279
Speaker 1: I was unable to attend, unfortunately, Clay there was a

803
00:41:57,320 --> 00:42:00,839
Speaker 1: big Bernie Sanders rally in Ashville. Now, I can't throw

804
00:42:00,920 --> 00:42:03,920
Speaker 1: too much shade at Asheville because despite the fact that

805
00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:08,080
Speaker 1: it is a place of a lot of leftism, it's

806
00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:10,359
Speaker 1: very beautiful area, but a lot of leftism. A lot

807
00:42:10,360 --> 00:42:13,319
Speaker 1: of people walking around as well, with purple hair, nose

808
00:42:13,440 --> 00:42:18,000
Speaker 1: rings and a tremendous amount of indecipherable tattoos. I'm just

809
00:42:18,040 --> 00:42:20,880
Speaker 1: saying this is what I observed. Men do they have

810
00:42:20,960 --> 00:42:23,120
Speaker 1: good brunch, food and coffee shops. I gotta say, I

811
00:42:23,120 --> 00:42:26,279
Speaker 1: don't know what it is. Something about anarchists who look

812
00:42:26,400 --> 00:42:28,879
Speaker 1: like they haven't talked to their parents in a very

813
00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:32,720
Speaker 1: long time and have a lot of piercings and whatever.

814
00:42:32,760 --> 00:42:34,799
Speaker 1: The gauge I think it's called the gauge when you

815
00:42:34,800 --> 00:42:38,000
Speaker 1: have the big round thing in your eat. Right, man,

816
00:42:38,040 --> 00:42:39,799
Speaker 1: they make a good latte. I don't know what to say.

817
00:42:39,840 --> 00:42:41,600
Speaker 1: You know, I'm a coffee guys. We all know they

818
00:42:41,600 --> 00:42:45,240
Speaker 1: make a good latte. But Bernie did a rally there

819
00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:48,239
Speaker 1: and I just think it's this is the guy. He

820
00:42:48,400 --> 00:42:52,279
Speaker 1: is still the guy for Democrats. The biggest draw on

821
00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:56,319
Speaker 1: the stump is Bernie Sanders. Here he is on the

822
00:42:56,760 --> 00:42:58,719
Speaker 1: here he is on the Jerryman and this is fourteen.

823
00:42:59,800 --> 00:43:02,960
Speaker 1: This is Bernie Sanders, lay weighing in, laying into it,

824
00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:05,799
Speaker 1: play it. You think democratic governors should try to push back.

825
00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:06,160
Speaker 1: I think.

826
00:43:07,840 --> 00:43:10,440
Speaker 11: I think they have no choice. I mean what Trump

827
00:43:10,480 --> 00:43:13,520
Speaker 11: is trying to re understands that there is a good

828
00:43:13,600 --> 00:43:16,839
Speaker 11: chance that the Republicans will lose control over the House.

829
00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:18,880
Speaker 11: I would hope the Senate as well. That'll be a

830
00:43:18,880 --> 00:43:21,359
Speaker 11: tough fight. So we're trying to make, you know, in

831
00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:24,360
Speaker 11: his authoritarian way, say hey, I don't want to lose elections.

832
00:43:24,440 --> 00:43:27,560
Speaker 11: Let's rig the system. Give me five more votes in

833
00:43:27,600 --> 00:43:29,800
Speaker 11: Texas to me maybe some other stakes. So what should

834
00:43:29,800 --> 00:43:33,200
Speaker 11: Democrats do sit back and say, oh, gee, Trump is

835
00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:36,120
Speaker 11: doing as terrible, we can't do anything. Let them win

836
00:43:36,320 --> 00:43:38,800
Speaker 11: the election when they shouldn't. So Democrats have got to

837
00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:41,680
Speaker 11: fight back. I think it's pathetic, but I think that's

838
00:43:41,680 --> 00:43:42,360
Speaker 11: what they've got to do.

839
00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:46,000
Speaker 1: What is pathetic, First of all, it's the Texas State

840
00:43:46,080 --> 00:43:49,719
Speaker 1: legislature that's going to do the redistrict, not Trump. It's

841
00:43:49,719 --> 00:43:52,719
Speaker 1: just funny. Trump is behind every scary thing Trump is

842
00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:55,400
Speaker 1: hiding under Democrats beds now, every bad thing that they

843
00:43:55,400 --> 00:43:56,680
Speaker 1: don't like, Trump is behind.

844
00:43:57,239 --> 00:43:57,479
Speaker 9: Yeah.

845
00:43:57,520 --> 00:44:00,440
Speaker 4: And also let me give credit, and this probably going

846
00:44:00,480 --> 00:44:04,320
Speaker 4: to shock people. It doesn't surprise me that Bernie has

847
00:44:04,640 --> 00:44:09,480
Speaker 4: an audience because I think he's wrong about everything, but

848
00:44:09,600 --> 00:44:13,400
Speaker 4: he has a coherent worldview. What is the world like,

849
00:44:13,520 --> 00:44:17,160
Speaker 4: what you understand for better or worse. Bernie is a

850
00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:21,000
Speaker 4: socialist and he thinks that things are broken in America.

851
00:44:21,040 --> 00:44:23,120
Speaker 4: And I go back to a lot of you will

852
00:44:23,200 --> 00:44:28,160
Speaker 4: remember this in the twenty fifteen early twenty sixteen New

853
00:44:28,200 --> 00:44:31,719
Speaker 4: Hampshire primary, for instance. I guarantee you listening to us

854
00:44:31,800 --> 00:44:34,520
Speaker 4: right now, are some died in the world Trump people

855
00:44:34,800 --> 00:44:38,000
Speaker 4: who when they were going to vote, they were going

856
00:44:38,040 --> 00:44:40,840
Speaker 4: to vote trying to decide between Bernie and Trump in

857
00:44:40,920 --> 00:44:44,680
Speaker 4: twenty sixteen because they were the most disruptive candidates out there,

858
00:44:44,960 --> 00:44:47,799
Speaker 4: but the Republican side and the Democrat side, and for

859
00:44:47,920 --> 00:44:51,640
Speaker 4: people out there who feel like things are broken, what

860
00:44:51,719 --> 00:44:55,120
Speaker 4: Bernie offers, I think it makes things worse, but it

861
00:44:55,239 --> 00:44:59,360
Speaker 4: is a coherent worldview. What does the Democrat Party stand

862
00:44:59,400 --> 00:45:02,719
Speaker 4: for outside of socialism and outside of Bernie? And I

863
00:45:02,719 --> 00:45:06,360
Speaker 4: would argue that somewhat this is what is appealing to

864
00:45:06,560 --> 00:45:10,360
Speaker 4: individuals about Mom Donnie. What does it Cheam Jefferies represent?

865
00:45:10,600 --> 00:45:14,799
Speaker 4: What does Chuck Schumer represent? I don't really think they

866
00:45:14,840 --> 00:45:19,360
Speaker 4: have a coherent philosophical.

867
00:45:18,280 --> 00:45:20,160
Speaker 9: Worldview that responds to people.

868
00:45:20,520 --> 00:45:24,080
Speaker 1: I think the central ethos of the Democrat Party up

869
00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:28,440
Speaker 1: up to this moment and stretching back now for really

870
00:45:28,480 --> 00:45:32,400
Speaker 1: a couple of decades, has been race politics or race communism.

871
00:45:32,560 --> 00:45:35,560
Speaker 1: I really believe this that that's that's the There's other things,

872
00:45:35,600 --> 00:45:37,960
Speaker 1: you know, there's gender communism or whatever you want to

873
00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:40,399
Speaker 1: call it to. There's these other things as well, where

874
00:45:40,440 --> 00:45:46,120
Speaker 1: they take this collectivist and and you know, anti traditionalist,

875
00:45:46,239 --> 00:45:48,560
Speaker 1: anti god, anti morality point of view. There's a lot

876
00:45:48,600 --> 00:45:50,239
Speaker 1: of things you could but I think that if you're

877
00:45:50,280 --> 00:45:53,239
Speaker 1: looking for the one thing that you've had to be

878
00:45:53,320 --> 00:45:56,200
Speaker 1: willing to go along with more than any other for

879
00:45:56,239 --> 00:45:59,279
Speaker 1: twenty years in the Democrat Party. It is It is

880
00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:03,800
Speaker 1: race communist. It is the race politics, politics, identity policy,

881
00:46:03,880 --> 00:46:06,719
Speaker 1: it's all that, you know. I prefer race communism because

882
00:46:06,760 --> 00:46:08,000
Speaker 1: I want to be very clear that I think it

883
00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:11,920
Speaker 1: should be completely disparaged and dismissed. And what's so critical

884
00:46:12,560 --> 00:46:15,400
Speaker 1: of what Trump. We're so important about what Trump is

885
00:46:15,440 --> 00:46:18,520
Speaker 1: doing is he's going right at that. The Supreme Court

886
00:46:18,560 --> 00:46:20,520
Speaker 1: has too, I might add, which gets ignored by a

887
00:46:20,520 --> 00:46:23,360
Speaker 1: lot of people. All this race communism stuff is illegal

888
00:46:24,080 --> 00:46:26,840
Speaker 1: that these places are still doing. They're not actually supposed

889
00:46:26,880 --> 00:46:29,399
Speaker 1: to do this. If the Constitution matters, then Supreme Court

890
00:46:29,400 --> 00:46:32,120
Speaker 1: matters to Democrats. And what we see across the board

891
00:46:32,760 --> 00:46:36,719
Speaker 1: is these universities playing games, people still playing games with

892
00:46:36,800 --> 00:46:39,480
Speaker 1: hiring HR departments, still trying to you know, get away

893
00:46:39,520 --> 00:46:43,440
Speaker 1: with this stuff. But that has been the central unifying

894
00:46:43,520 --> 00:46:47,520
Speaker 1: characteristic of the Democrat Party for twenty for you know,

895
00:46:47,640 --> 00:46:49,560
Speaker 1: twenty years is kind of just a rough estimate of it,

896
00:46:50,239 --> 00:46:52,800
Speaker 1: because more so than class it used to be class warfare.

897
00:46:53,200 --> 00:46:55,360
Speaker 1: Early two thousands, I think it was more class warfare

898
00:46:55,400 --> 00:46:58,640
Speaker 1: stuff that's right, and now, especially going into two thousand

899
00:46:58,640 --> 00:47:01,520
Speaker 1: and two thousand and eight era with the Wall Street meltdown,

900
00:47:01,840 --> 00:47:04,200
Speaker 1: But now it really has turned into race politics, and

901
00:47:04,400 --> 00:47:06,880
Speaker 1: Trump is breaking down. And that's why I think the

902
00:47:06,880 --> 00:47:10,239
Speaker 1: Democrats are in such disarray, because the race coalition of

903
00:47:10,280 --> 00:47:13,239
Speaker 1: the Democrats is being shattered. When you see things like

904
00:47:13,520 --> 00:47:16,239
Speaker 1: hold on a second, A majority of black and a

905
00:47:16,280 --> 00:47:20,720
Speaker 1: majority of Latino voters, for example, agree with Trump on deportations. Well, well,

906
00:47:20,760 --> 00:47:23,600
Speaker 1: you know, the the oh it's so racist stuff doesn't

907
00:47:23,640 --> 00:47:25,200
Speaker 1: work the same way that it used to.

908
00:47:26,120 --> 00:47:28,400
Speaker 4: I also think, and this ties in with what we

909
00:47:28,440 --> 00:47:34,680
Speaker 4: started the show with, what did black voters get from BLM?

910
00:47:34,760 --> 00:47:39,360
Speaker 1: Nothing? In fact, worse than got worse, nothing but downside. Yeah, yeah,

911
00:47:39,440 --> 00:47:43,080
Speaker 1: everything got worse from BLM. And I think a lot

912
00:47:43,080 --> 00:47:45,640
Speaker 1: of Black voters are looking around now and saying, boy,

913
00:47:46,160 --> 00:47:50,520
Speaker 1: we spray painted a street black Matter, Black Lives Matter, Plaza,

914
00:47:51,160 --> 00:47:54,160
Speaker 1: but thousands of black kids got killed because we said

915
00:47:54,200 --> 00:47:55,919
Speaker 1: cops shouldn't be able to do the job.

916
00:47:56,560 --> 00:47:59,759
Speaker 4: And now I think you're gonna see I think a

917
00:47:59,800 --> 00:48:03,040
Speaker 4: lot a lot of Black voters are going to say, yeah,

918
00:48:03,040 --> 00:48:07,239
Speaker 4: I kind of support Trump calling in more security and

919
00:48:07,280 --> 00:48:13,120
Speaker 4: more individuals to stop violent, violent crime from happening, and

920
00:48:13,280 --> 00:48:17,440
Speaker 4: the Democrat perspective of violent crime isn't that bad. Do

921
00:48:17,520 --> 00:48:22,120
Speaker 4: you think that a mom in Saint Louis or Inner

922
00:48:22,120 --> 00:48:27,080
Speaker 4: city Memphis, or Washington, d C. Or Philadelphia, do you

923
00:48:27,160 --> 00:48:31,200
Speaker 4: think she's looking around saying, you know what Democrats are right,

924
00:48:31,600 --> 00:48:34,520
Speaker 4: Crime's not that bad. We don't need more here. Or

925
00:48:34,560 --> 00:48:37,239
Speaker 4: do you think for her son and daughter, do you

926
00:48:37,280 --> 00:48:40,600
Speaker 4: think she wants more security on the streets. I think

927
00:48:40,680 --> 00:48:43,520
Speaker 4: most black moms and dads want more security on the

928
00:48:43,520 --> 00:48:46,000
Speaker 4: streets because they're not, unfortunately, or aware of the people

929
00:48:46,040 --> 00:48:46,960
Speaker 4: committing the crimes.

930
00:48:47,280 --> 00:48:49,480
Speaker 1: Unfortunately, I think, to take your example, though, a lot

931
00:48:49,560 --> 00:48:56,520
Speaker 1: of people are told that the problems, especially the problems

932
00:48:56,520 --> 00:49:00,600
Speaker 1: of poverty and problems of crime and everything, is all

933
00:49:01,200 --> 00:49:05,120
Speaker 1: caused by racism, and that the belief that the Democrats

934
00:49:05,120 --> 00:49:11,160
Speaker 1: have instilled in black, white, Asian, Hispanic, you name it,

935
00:49:11,239 --> 00:49:14,160
Speaker 1: the belief that Democrats have instilled in their true believers,

936
00:49:14,239 --> 00:49:17,200
Speaker 1: is that the problems of crime in major American cities

937
00:49:17,480 --> 00:49:23,040
Speaker 1: are all attributable to racism of the other that that's

938
00:49:23,080 --> 00:49:25,520
Speaker 1: actually the problem, and that's certainly the case with how

939
00:49:25,560 --> 00:49:28,359
Speaker 1: they approach police. It's certainly the case with how they

940
00:49:28,400 --> 00:49:31,200
Speaker 1: approach who they're going to vote for. They're going to

941
00:49:31,280 --> 00:49:33,759
Speaker 1: vote for the people who are going to continue to

942
00:49:33,840 --> 00:49:37,840
Speaker 1: tell them, Hey, it's racism that causes all these problems,

943
00:49:38,040 --> 00:49:40,440
Speaker 1: and if you put me in power, I will attack

944
00:49:40,560 --> 00:49:44,399
Speaker 1: your racist enemies and I will protect you. And unfortunately

945
00:49:45,000 --> 00:49:47,680
Speaker 1: that just results in more of what we see, which

946
00:49:47,719 --> 00:49:55,640
Speaker 1: is the degradation of these urban centers, in particular high crime, fatherlessness, poverty,

947
00:49:55,760 --> 00:49:59,080
Speaker 1: lack of education, lack of opportunities go down the whole list.

948
00:50:00,160 --> 00:50:04,719
Speaker 4: Think though, that it is increasingly not resonating, and I

949
00:50:04,719 --> 00:50:09,040
Speaker 4: think BLM actually exposed it because that was them saying, hey,

950
00:50:09,480 --> 00:50:12,960
Speaker 4: we're going to speak out for black lives, and thousands

951
00:50:12,960 --> 00:50:15,960
Speaker 4: of innocent black people ended up dead because cops weren't

952
00:50:15,960 --> 00:50:16,560
Speaker 4: able to work.

953
00:50:16,440 --> 00:50:18,520
Speaker 1: And you play the only people who know that data

954
00:50:18,640 --> 00:50:20,920
Speaker 1: listen to shows like this. Now that's the problem. But

955
00:50:21,000 --> 00:50:22,960
Speaker 1: I think do you think they talk about this on

956
00:50:23,040 --> 00:50:26,520
Speaker 1: shows where the audience is overwhelmingly urban? Do you think

957
00:50:26,560 --> 00:50:29,080
Speaker 1: they talk about this on they get people that stat

958
00:50:29,320 --> 00:50:31,920
Speaker 1: They do not. They will not tell people that the

959
00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:35,719
Speaker 1: DC murder rate in twenty twenty three into twenty twenty four,

960
00:50:35,880 --> 00:50:39,800
Speaker 1: when was one of the highest in history of that city.

961
00:50:40,719 --> 00:50:43,920
Speaker 4: But I think they feel that they're being lied to,

962
00:50:44,440 --> 00:50:46,600
Speaker 4: and I hope. I mean, look, think about this in

963
00:50:46,640 --> 00:50:49,719
Speaker 4: twenty twenty four, and I know it's green shoots. I mean,

964
00:50:49,719 --> 00:50:54,040
Speaker 4: it's just starting. One in every five black guys voted Trump.

965
00:50:55,480 --> 00:50:57,480
Speaker 4: One in every five. Now, I think it should have

966
00:50:57,560 --> 00:51:03,920
Speaker 4: been three in every five, right, because men overwhelmingly voted Trump,

967
00:51:04,719 --> 00:51:07,719
Speaker 4: but one out of every five is a big difference.

968
00:51:08,000 --> 00:51:11,000
Speaker 4: That means, you know, in a group of five guys

969
00:51:11,040 --> 00:51:14,120
Speaker 4: on average that voted, one of them was a Trump guy.

970
00:51:14,360 --> 00:51:17,799
Speaker 4: For black voters, that's transformative because that one guy, and

971
00:51:17,840 --> 00:51:19,480
Speaker 4: I know a bunch of you are listening to us

972
00:51:19,560 --> 00:51:22,239
Speaker 4: right now, and that guy, that black guy out there

973
00:51:22,239 --> 00:51:25,640
Speaker 4: who voted Trump. You're now with your buddies sitting around

974
00:51:25,680 --> 00:51:28,799
Speaker 4: talking and you can share those stats, because when it's

975
00:51:28,880 --> 00:51:32,200
Speaker 4: one in ten or it's one in twenty, it's hard

976
00:51:32,239 --> 00:51:35,719
Speaker 4: to be the guy that broaches that topic. I think

977
00:51:35,760 --> 00:51:38,319
Speaker 4: when it gets to one in five, in the same

978
00:51:38,320 --> 00:51:41,600
Speaker 4: way you sit around and talk about sports, the conversation

979
00:51:42,200 --> 00:51:45,160
Speaker 4: is a more natural one. And I think every day

980
00:51:45,239 --> 00:51:47,520
Speaker 4: more people are like, wait a minute, we're being sold

981
00:51:47,520 --> 00:51:49,960
Speaker 4: to bill of goods. I'm optimistic on the direction this

982
00:51:50,040 --> 00:51:52,200
Speaker 4: is going. Could it be going faster? Yes, and I wish,

983
00:51:52,440 --> 00:51:53,680
Speaker 4: but I really think it's happening.

984
00:51:54,880 --> 00:51:58,440
Speaker 1: Clay is once again the optimistic one here. I'm e

985
00:51:58,680 --> 00:52:01,920
Speaker 1: or sitting here telling you be grumpy about this because

986
00:52:01,920 --> 00:52:04,319
Speaker 1: it's not happening fast. People are not realizing the truth

987
00:52:04,440 --> 00:52:06,759
Speaker 1: nearly fast enough on this. I just I just know. Buck.

988
00:52:06,840 --> 00:52:08,400
Speaker 4: Let me give you an example. I was in Atlanta

989
00:52:09,080 --> 00:52:10,680
Speaker 4: for the All Star Game. I don't think I mentioned

990
00:52:10,680 --> 00:52:13,960
Speaker 4: this on the on the audio. I was, you know,

991
00:52:14,000 --> 00:52:16,000
Speaker 4: they had a lot of large security presence for the

992
00:52:16,040 --> 00:52:18,239
Speaker 4: All Star Game, right, so I'm staying next door to

993
00:52:18,239 --> 00:52:22,120
Speaker 4: the All Star Game. Three different black cops on my

994
00:52:22,320 --> 00:52:26,960
Speaker 4: walk from the exit of my hotel to the stadium

995
00:52:26,960 --> 00:52:31,320
Speaker 4: era area stopped me. Said, Hey, I'm hearing what you're saying.

996
00:52:31,360 --> 00:52:35,839
Speaker 4: Thanks for having our back in Atlanta. Three different black

997
00:52:35,880 --> 00:52:37,919
Speaker 4: cops as I was just walking. I mean, I'm telling

998
00:52:38,000 --> 00:52:42,040
Speaker 4: you that conversation, I am super optimistic is happening in

999
00:52:42,080 --> 00:52:44,520
Speaker 4: a real way that it was that year.

1000
00:52:44,560 --> 00:52:48,280
Speaker 1: So that doesn't surprise me. People who live people who

1001
00:52:48,840 --> 00:52:52,080
Speaker 1: you know you're talking about cops. We have cops back,

1002
00:52:52,320 --> 00:52:55,640
Speaker 1: but we have the back of black law enforcement. We

1003
00:52:55,680 --> 00:52:58,799
Speaker 1: have the black of black people who want to live

1004
00:52:58,960 --> 00:53:01,960
Speaker 1: in peace and security in their own neighborhoods, in their

1005
00:53:02,000 --> 00:53:05,640
Speaker 1: own communities. But it's just tough to get that word

1006
00:53:05,719 --> 00:53:10,040
Speaker 1: out because people are still just honestly, they're just lying

1007
00:53:10,040 --> 00:53:12,239
Speaker 1: about this stuff. Like I said, I would debate, I'll

1008
00:53:12,239 --> 00:53:13,720
Speaker 1: put it out there now, but not that this stuff.

1009
00:53:13,760 --> 00:53:16,560
Speaker 1: Really I'll debate anybody in the country on DC crime

1010
00:53:16,800 --> 00:53:19,719
Speaker 1: from the left, anybody right. There's not a single person

1011
00:53:19,760 --> 00:53:21,040
Speaker 1: in the country that I wouldn't be willing to go

1012
00:53:21,160 --> 00:53:24,520
Speaker 1: up again who's worth the time because they would get smoked.

1013
00:53:24,640 --> 00:53:26,440
Speaker 1: And I'm totally confident in that.

1014
00:53:27,040 --> 00:53:29,360
Speaker 4: Well, your point, which is a good one, and this

1015
00:53:29,480 --> 00:53:31,399
Speaker 4: is something that everybody needs to think about. This why

1016
00:53:31,440 --> 00:53:34,080
Speaker 4: I want you guys subscribing to our YouTube channel. You

1017
00:53:34,200 --> 00:53:38,560
Speaker 4: got to be everywhere because the traditional legacy media voices

1018
00:53:38,640 --> 00:53:44,680
Speaker 4: are collapsing, and so where people get their news TikTok, YouTube, Instagram,

1019
00:53:44,960 --> 00:53:48,120
Speaker 4: I mean not necessarily the traditional radio shows like you're

1020
00:53:48,160 --> 00:53:50,719
Speaker 4: listening to right now, or the traditional television shows. You

1021
00:53:50,719 --> 00:53:53,279
Speaker 4: got to be everywhere. And look, we're talking about taking

1022
00:53:53,320 --> 00:53:55,359
Speaker 4: care of your family, doing whatever you can to try

1023
00:53:55,400 --> 00:53:56,000
Speaker 4: and help them.

1024
00:53:56,239 --> 00:53:57,120
Speaker 1: Let me tell you something.

1025
00:53:58,000 --> 00:54:00,759
Speaker 4: If you're out there and you're already thinking about Thanksgiving

1026
00:54:00,960 --> 00:54:02,919
Speaker 4: and you're like, oh, we can't sit these two next

1027
00:54:02,960 --> 00:54:03,439
Speaker 4: to each other.

1028
00:54:03,800 --> 00:54:05,879
Speaker 1: They've been going at it since nineteen ninety eight.

1029
00:54:06,640 --> 00:54:10,239
Speaker 4: If your mom and your grandma and your grandpa and

1030
00:54:10,360 --> 00:54:13,959
Speaker 4: your dad out there and you're thinking about this, you

1031
00:54:14,080 --> 00:54:16,160
Speaker 4: spend your whole life trying to make things better for

1032
00:54:16,239 --> 00:54:18,960
Speaker 4: your family. Have you thought about what would happen if

1033
00:54:19,000 --> 00:54:22,640
Speaker 4: you weren't there. Who's going to be the referee, who's

1034
00:54:22,680 --> 00:54:25,799
Speaker 4: going to be the peacemaker in your family? Have you

1035
00:54:25,880 --> 00:54:28,760
Speaker 4: thought about how to keep your family from fighting about

1036
00:54:28,760 --> 00:54:31,080
Speaker 4: what you might want when you're not there, to just

1037
00:54:31,120 --> 00:54:34,439
Speaker 4: tell them yourself, that's what wills and trusts are for.

1038
00:54:34,960 --> 00:54:38,160
Speaker 4: Sounds complicated, it's not actually all you need to do.

1039
00:54:38,560 --> 00:54:40,440
Speaker 4: You don't even have to get an attorney for this.

1043
00:54:52,360 --> 00:54:54,480
Speaker 4: got to trust in a will. Buck has got a

1044
00:54:54,520 --> 00:54:56,640
Speaker 4: trust in a will. We have kids that we want

1045
00:54:56,640 --> 00:54:59,640
Speaker 4: to provide for families that we're concerned about. If something

1046
00:54:59,680 --> 00:55:02,680
Speaker 4: God forbid happen to us, we want you to be

1047
00:55:02,719 --> 00:55:05,000
Speaker 4: thinking about the same. If you are the peacemaker in

00:55:05,080 --> 00:55:07,759
Speaker 4: your family, if you're the person who helps to make decisions,

1049
00:55:07,960 --> 00:55:11,200
Speaker 4: why not help with one of the biggest decisions out there.
