We're gonna be taking some calls here. 7 00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:23,000 Speaker 1: And here we go. 8 00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:28,560 Speaker 2: We have a House Democrat corner Fox here faced a 9 00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:33,519 Speaker 2: bit of a backlash for being dismissive of testimony up 10 00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:39,880 Speaker 2: at the House's Homeland Security Committee hearing on left wing violence. 11 00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:42,360 Speaker 2: Before we get into this, I do just want to 12 00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:47,479 Speaker 2: remind everyone that the two biggest places, the two biggest 13 00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:52,680 Speaker 2: areas of attack on Donald Trump specifically, but really on Republicans. 14 00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:55,000 Speaker 2: Now we're generally because Trump was the Republican president. He's 15 00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:59,240 Speaker 2: the front runner right now for the Republican primary. The 16 00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:04,120 Speaker 2: two biggest areas they attack us on are election denial 17 00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:09,520 Speaker 2: and you know, election violence or violence related to politics, right, 18 00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:10,200 Speaker 2: political violence? 19 00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:12,839 Speaker 1: Election denial and isn't it interesting. 20 00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:16,040 Speaker 2: That they do this with all of us supposed to 21 00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:18,840 Speaker 2: forget about the fact that they, as we know from 22 00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:22,440 Speaker 2: the Durham Report, denied the twenty sixteen election and tried 23 00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:26,080 Speaker 2: to overturn it effectively tried to kick Donald Trump out 24 00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:27,720 Speaker 2: of office and even lock them up in prison if 25 00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:30,720 Speaker 2: they could, based on lies, because they didn't like twenty sixteen, 26 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:33,160 Speaker 2: and they went with it for years. It wasn't just 27 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:35,679 Speaker 2: a one off. It wasn't some people who got a 28 00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:39,400 Speaker 2: little overzealous or whatever. No, No, it was the entire 29 00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:43,640 Speaker 2: Democrat machine denying twenty sixteen. In the other area, and 30 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:47,240 Speaker 2: these all tie together January sixth. They talk about January 31 00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 2: sixth constantly, the threat to our democracy. All this stuff 32 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:53,560 Speaker 2: I lived through. I don't know Clay how bad it 33 00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:56,600 Speaker 2: got in Nashville, because it was so present everywhere. There 34 00:01:56,600 --> 00:02:00,080 Speaker 2: were some I remember in twenty twenty as their There 35 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:02,520 Speaker 2: was the Night of the Purge in New York City 36 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 2: and they had Antifil lunatics in the name of BLM 37 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:09,960 Speaker 2: running all over the city, just smashing windows, looting, taking 38 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 2: It happened on my block. I was watching as this 39 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:16,320 Speaker 2: stuff was unfolding. I could hear all the sirens. The 40 00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 2: NYPD was totally unable to deal with the mass that 41 00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:24,120 Speaker 2: thousands of people running around acting like miniacs. Those were 42 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 2: all Biden voters and the people who gathered outside the 43 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:28,919 Speaker 2: White House when Trump was president and had to be 44 00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:31,919 Speaker 2: cleared with tear gas right in what is it Lafayette Square? 45 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:34,280 Speaker 2: Those were all Biden voters. The people who tried to 46 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:37,920 Speaker 2: burn down a courthouse in Portland, Oregon and were shining 47 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,200 Speaker 2: lasers in the eyes of officers in the hopes of 48 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:43,480 Speaker 2: blinding them. Didn't work, but they were trying to. Those 49 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 2: were Biden voters. We're supposed to ignore all of this 50 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:50,400 Speaker 2: political violence, and that is why I think it's worth everybody, 51 00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:54,600 Speaker 2: it's worth us taking a moment here to look at 52 00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 2: this hearing and what Julio Rosas was up against. First 53 00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:01,040 Speaker 2: of all, you have represented. How bad did it get 54 00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:02,240 Speaker 2: a Nashville clay was it? 55 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 1: Yeah? They? 56 00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 3: I mean I remember Memorial Day weekend twenty twenty, they 57 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 3: tried to burn down the Nashville Courthouse. For people out 58 00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:16,440 Speaker 3: there who remember, this was iconic footage because Nashville was 59 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:18,800 Speaker 3: a city that had never had any kind of rioting 60 00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 3: to speak of, and I couldn't believe what I was 61 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:28,320 Speaker 3: seeing on television. They were breaking out windows, throwing basically 62 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:32,520 Speaker 3: Molotov cocktails into the Nashville Courthouse, trying to burn down 63 00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 3: the entire building in the midst of a BLM protest. 64 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 3: There were no officers to be seen anywhere. Now, thankfully 65 00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:43,280 Speaker 3: the fire didn't take and really bring down. 66 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 1: The building, but it was awful. 67 00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:49,400 Speaker 3: And I remember watching that footage Buck and being so 68 00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:54,640 Speaker 3: furious and angry that in my hometown we had allowed 69 00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 3: rioters to try to burn down a courthouse and there 70 00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 3: was at that time zero consequences for them. So yeah, 71 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:04,880 Speaker 3: in my own town too. It was Now it was 72 00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 3: not New York City, it was not Chicago, it was 73 00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:09,160 Speaker 3: not some of the cities that had, you know, weeks 74 00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 3: and weeks of aggressive rooting, liot rioting and looting, but 75 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:17,480 Speaker 3: it was It was something I've never seen before and 76 00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:18,559 Speaker 3: I hope to never see again. 77 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:23,040 Speaker 2: And the only time that they can talk about right 78 00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 2: wing political violence in a mob setting is always January sixth. 79 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 2: For Democrats, that's just like the Tuesday. I mean, they 80 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:34,080 Speaker 2: don't care. They will have and have had. There were 81 00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:37,159 Speaker 2: BLM riots the one point zero BLM if you will, 82 00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 2: under the Obama administration when they had that truly famous 83 00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:44,760 Speaker 2: or infamous moment of it's a mostly peaceful protests and 84 00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 2: they had the building on fire behind them, right, I mean, 85 00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 2: this is this also goes to the media knows its role. 86 00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:52,520 Speaker 1: The role is not to tell the truth. 87 00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:55,920 Speaker 2: The role of the contemporary democrat media is to tell 88 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:59,480 Speaker 2: you while a looting mob is burning your house down, 89 00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:01,839 Speaker 2: that you're your house is not actually on fire. And 90 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:04,719 Speaker 2: if you think it is, like maybe you're a bad person, 91 00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 2: a misogynist, xenophobic, a racist. You know your house is 92 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:11,080 Speaker 2: not actually burning down, even though you're watching it burn down. 93 00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:14,359 Speaker 2: They also had that great Don Lemon clip. Do you 94 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:16,599 Speaker 2: remember where then was at the pred he was like, 95 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:21,760 Speaker 2: there's a smell of weed. Obviously that was like. 96 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 3: Again, Don Liman before he became like the anti Trump zealot, 97 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:31,719 Speaker 3: had some moments on CNN where you were like, Okay, 98 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 3: it's hard not to laugh, like he's I think a 99 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:37,159 Speaker 3: pretty talented television guy, you know, regardless of what you 100 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:39,479 Speaker 3: think of its politics. But when he said there's the 101 00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 3: smell of weed, obviously was absolutely hysterical. And maybe we 102 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,839 Speaker 3: can grab that clip somewhere because they buried it obviously 103 00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:50,599 Speaker 3: when he became the anti Trump's zealot, but that one 104 00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:53,320 Speaker 3: in is and is remember the we played that recently, 105 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:57,200 Speaker 3: but when he got fired, I think we played the 106 00:05:57,200 --> 00:05:59,839 Speaker 3: the Don Leman like with lessons for black people. Remember 107 00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 3: that aired on CNN, which was like, by the way, 108 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 3: would get him fired immediately in today's Twitter, But a 109 00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:09,240 Speaker 3: lot of what he said was totally reasonable back in 110 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:09,599 Speaker 3: the day. 111 00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 2: So so Julio Rosas bringing this back to what happened 112 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:15,040 Speaker 2: on the House last night, just we wanted to remind 113 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 2: you all. They lie constantly about the there's an omnipresent 114 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:21,240 Speaker 2: threat of political violence from the left. We all know this. 115 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:24,080 Speaker 2: There's a shooting involving law enforcement or even just a 116 00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:27,480 Speaker 2: white guy who is the one doing the shooting and 117 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:32,080 Speaker 2: or or is doing that, you know, the physical confrontation 118 00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:34,640 Speaker 2: of any kind. There may be a riot. We all 119 00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:36,040 Speaker 2: know this. There may be a riot, and it will 120 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,280 Speaker 2: be Biden voters. It will be Biden voters who ride. 121 00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:40,080 Speaker 2: It will be Biden voters in Portland, it will be 122 00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:42,159 Speaker 2: Biden voters in Houston, will be Biden voters in New 123 00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:45,120 Speaker 2: York City. We all know it, but we're not supposed to. 124 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 2: There's like a there's a prohibition on noticing that is 125 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:51,359 Speaker 2: going on. You're not allowed to notice this. It's like 126 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:57,360 Speaker 2: a war on noticing. Here is representative Goldman. Julio has 127 00:06:57,400 --> 00:07:01,719 Speaker 2: been it countless of these Antifa you know, actions, direct 128 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:03,480 Speaker 2: action they call it. It's not really a protest because 129 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:06,039 Speaker 2: they're trying to break stuff and intimidate people. Here is 130 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:10,280 Speaker 2: how this new Democrat, billionaire, trust fund baby member of 131 00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 2: Congress speaks to Julio Rosas, a frontline reporter and former marine. 132 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:15,440 Speaker 1: By the way, play it. 133 00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 4: Gaslight us up here as if Antifa, which mister Rosas 134 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:27,040 Speaker 4: apparently the expert now in organized terrorist activity, has overruled 135 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:31,720 Speaker 4: the FBI director, who says there's a headline says antifa 136 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:34,400 Speaker 4: is an ideology, not an organization. No, no, no, let's 137 00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:38,200 Speaker 4: not listen to the FBI director. Let's listen to sorry, 138 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 4: what's your your title? Senior writer at town Hall, who 139 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 4: is going to tell us that the FBI director is wrong? 140 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:49,000 Speaker 2: And I'd like to introduce there's no question. First of all, 141 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:53,120 Speaker 2: it's an opinion, it's analysis. Second of all, the FBI 142 00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 2: director is not a very smart guy. There's plenty of 143 00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:58,440 Speaker 2: that going on these days. We've seen it. And third 144 00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:02,720 Speaker 2: of the dripping dissension here from a guy who he's 145 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:04,320 Speaker 2: a billionaire, he's the air. Oh, actually, you know what, 146 00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:07,680 Speaker 2: let's let Julio say it. Because Julio's feisty. He took 147 00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:08,600 Speaker 2: some shots play it. 148 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,000 Speaker 5: I think it's funny to be to be lectured by 149 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 5: an heir to the Levi Strauss Corporation. And honestly, that's 150 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:18,320 Speaker 5: probably why he doesn't consider property damage to be that 151 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:20,200 Speaker 5: big of a deal, because not only does he have that, 152 00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:23,520 Speaker 5: but he also has when someone describe an impossibly good 153 00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:24,920 Speaker 5: stock portfolio. 154 00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:29,880 Speaker 2: Taking some shots there, and I think he gets it 155 00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:33,240 Speaker 2: an important point. Though, you've got a lib trust fund 156 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:36,679 Speaker 2: billionaire didn't make it himself, a lib trust fund billionaire, 157 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:39,800 Speaker 2: who's oh, what's the big deal If antifood destroys a 158 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:42,480 Speaker 2: store window where you know, burns down a CVS or 159 00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:44,800 Speaker 2: a drug store somewhere, it's not that big a deal 160 00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:48,080 Speaker 2: because you know, worrying about property clay is for the 161 00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:51,000 Speaker 2: peasants when you're a billionaire. That's this guy's attitude, and 162 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:53,080 Speaker 2: there was so much that was wrong with it. He 163 00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:55,600 Speaker 2: basically bought his congressional seat. 164 00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:58,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, and again he's a good example of somebody who 165 00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:01,400 Speaker 3: just accepts the conventional whizy. Maybe he's smart enough to 166 00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:03,920 Speaker 3: know the conventional wisdom is wrong. Question for you, because 167 00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:05,440 Speaker 3: it builds off what we were just talking about with 168 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 3: Leslie Stall Last Hour. 169 00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:09,280 Speaker 1: Adam Schiff. 170 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:14,640 Speaker 3: Do you think Adam Schiff is actually really smart and 171 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:19,079 Speaker 3: just like was committed to the lie from the get go? 172 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:23,600 Speaker 3: Or my analogy of Adam Schiff is remember Seinfeld when 173 00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:25,760 Speaker 3: George claims that he has a house in the Hamptons, 174 00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:28,199 Speaker 3: and then he gets called on it, and eventually he 175 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:30,200 Speaker 3: gets into the car because the guy's like, I want 176 00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:32,440 Speaker 3: you to drive me to your house in the Hamptons, 177 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:35,080 Speaker 3: and so George is committed enough to the lie that 178 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 3: he gets in the car and he just keeps driving. 179 00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:42,040 Speaker 3: I think Schiff bought into the idea that Trump legitimately 180 00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:45,600 Speaker 3: was influenced by Russia, and then I think he was 181 00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:48,920 Speaker 3: so committed to the lie that he was just going 182 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 3: to ride it to the end of the earth. Because 183 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:53,680 Speaker 3: here's what's really sad, buck, and this goes with the 184 00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:55,760 Speaker 3: caller who wanted to talk to us to end the hour. 185 00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:58,520 Speaker 3: What is really sad And if you want to talk 186 00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 3: about a true threat to democer, it's when there are 187 00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:07,680 Speaker 3: no consequences for being wrong about issues of great consequence 188 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:08,319 Speaker 3: to the country. 189 00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 1: Right. 190 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:13,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, we care more about holding people accountable when they 191 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:16,079 Speaker 3: get a Super Bowl prediction wrong than we do. When 192 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:19,600 Speaker 3: somebody says, hey, you're a Russian agent, You're a Manchurian candidate. 193 00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:22,200 Speaker 3: They argue it for years, they impeach you based on 194 00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:25,439 Speaker 3: it when it's all proven to be false. Shiff is 195 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:29,079 Speaker 3: any running for Senate? He probably will be rewarded in California? 196 00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 3: Am I right about that? Is he running for Senate? 197 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 1: Probably have we rewarded he might get a Senate seat. 198 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:37,360 Speaker 2: We have a shift montage? Can we play the shifty 199 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:39,679 Speaker 2: shift montage? CIVU play. 200 00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 6: So there's clear evidence on the issue of collusion, and 201 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:43,560 Speaker 6: this adds to. 202 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:44,440 Speaker 1: That body of evidence. 203 00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 6: There's ample evidence of collusion in plain sight, and that 204 00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:50,400 Speaker 6: is true. Have Democrats found any evidence of collusion? 205 00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 1: Yes, we have. 206 00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:54,560 Speaker 6: If you can see evidence in plain sight on the 207 00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:57,800 Speaker 6: issue of collusion, pretty compelling evidence. And there is significant 208 00:10:57,840 --> 00:11:00,800 Speaker 6: evidence of collusion. There is ample evidence and there is 209 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:04,480 Speaker 6: of collusion of people in the Trump campaign with the Russians. 210 00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:07,320 Speaker 6: I think there's plenty of evidence of collusion or conspiracy. 211 00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:10,920 Speaker 6: All of this is evidence of collusion. There is significant 212 00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:14,320 Speaker 6: evidence of collusion between the campaign and Russia. 213 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:17,679 Speaker 2: So this is I would say this, first of all, 214 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:19,280 Speaker 2: we all know all of that is a lie. And 215 00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:20,839 Speaker 2: he just lied so many times. We could do a 216 00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:23,480 Speaker 2: whole show, a three hour show of just all the 217 00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:26,240 Speaker 2: lies that Shift has told and all the hits. All 218 00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:31,400 Speaker 2: the guy loves his face on TV. Yeah, so you 219 00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:33,000 Speaker 2: look at this and I think what you have is 220 00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:39,880 Speaker 2: a lawyer divorced from any ethics, who saw an opportunity 221 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:42,880 Speaker 2: to make a case for a political purpose, and that's 222 00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:45,400 Speaker 2: why he always picked it a law I don't think 223 00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:48,520 Speaker 2: he really believed that Vladimir Putin was sending, you know, 224 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:51,080 Speaker 2: text messages to Trump saying, you know, this is how 225 00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:54,400 Speaker 2: we will steal the election. I think that he believed 226 00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:57,640 Speaker 2: there's enough here that I can make like a prosecutor 227 00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:01,280 Speaker 2: who wants to take somebody down without really thinking the 228 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:03,760 Speaker 2: person's a bad guy. I think he believed that he 229 00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:07,240 Speaker 2: could take whatever little tidbits were there, construct a narrative 230 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:09,200 Speaker 2: and use it as a weapon against Trump. And that's 231 00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:12,439 Speaker 2: clearly what he did. And he's a perfect example wrong 232 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:16,600 Speaker 2: about everything, more important, more powerful in the Democrat. 233 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:17,920 Speaker 1: Party, isn't that? 234 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:20,960 Speaker 3: Ultimately, if you want to talk about true threats to democracy, 235 00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:24,800 Speaker 3: the only reason we elect people is so they can 236 00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 3: make decisions that you and me and all of us 237 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:29,720 Speaker 3: out there don't have the time to make on our own. 238 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:33,640 Speaker 3: They are our representatives, and it's truest sense analyzing all 239 00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:38,360 Speaker 3: the data making choices. If you elect someone and they're 240 00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:42,760 Speaker 3: wrong about everything, they shouldn't get reelected. What's worse than 241 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:46,040 Speaker 3: being wrong about everything is being wrong about everything and 242 00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:49,040 Speaker 3: either getting re elected or in the case of Adam Schiffbuck, 243 00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:51,920 Speaker 3: he might get promoted and people say, Okay, well, how 244 00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:54,120 Speaker 3: in the world did Kamala Harris end up in the 245 00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:57,400 Speaker 3: vice president chair where she's clearly not able to do it. 246 00:12:57,480 --> 00:13:00,000 Speaker 3: Nobody's ever really believed that she was even very good 247 00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:03,160 Speaker 3: at her job. It's because in a one party system 248 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:07,520 Speaker 3: like California, when they decide you are the representative, you 249 00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:10,080 Speaker 3: never have to actually go out and win a battle 250 00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:11,640 Speaker 3: for ideas. You don't even have to be a very 251 00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:15,520 Speaker 3: good candidate. You are just the figurehead. And Shift maybe 252 00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:16,800 Speaker 3: the next one. 253 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,120 Speaker 2: I think he is going to win that Dianne Feinstein 254 00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:21,600 Speaker 2: Senec That's what I'm saying. I think that's gonna happen. 255 00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:24,200 Speaker 2: So this is what because the Democrats think of him. 256 00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:27,480 Speaker 2: The Democrats, and this goes to my central thesis, they 257 00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:30,320 Speaker 2: do not think of Shift as a guy who was wrong. 258 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 2: They think of him as a guy who was willing 259 00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:37,240 Speaker 2: to do anything for the cause. And that's all the matters. 260 00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:40,600 Speaker 2: That's all they care about. The lies. Remember, even the 261 00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 2: journals were taking the opinion for a long time cla 262 00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:48,520 Speaker 2: Or during the Trump administration, we're openly saying we can't 263 00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:54,480 Speaker 2: report objectively because objectivity can serve Trump's purpose. The truth 264 00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:58,000 Speaker 2: is anti Trump, therefore we must be anti Trump. And 265 00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:00,560 Speaker 2: that I mean, it was the ultimate circular reason. 266 00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 1: It was just right. 267 00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:06,000 Speaker 2: They said this openly in some of the big newspapers. 268 00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:08,439 Speaker 2: So it's kind of funny we think of those newspapers. 269 00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:10,719 Speaker 2: They're really all now just website. Although Clay is the 270 00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:13,800 Speaker 2: New York Times, old school right, old school paper, you do. 271 00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:16,960 Speaker 3: I'm literally to my right right now, buck have the 272 00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:20,520 Speaker 3: New York Times and the Wall Street Journal print publication paper. 273 00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:21,760 Speaker 1: I tried to buy.

You can't buy 276 00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:30,360 Speaker 3: a newspaper in Lax. 277 00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:34,040 Speaker 2: Clay's a climate change monster with his paper, killing all 278 00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 2: the trees.

I don't know. 342 00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:45,800 Speaker 1: It is interesting. 343 00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:49,520 Speaker 3: You almost never see young people smoking cigarettes now, you know, 344 00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:52,760 Speaker 3: standing outside of a building, certainly not in restaurants or 345 00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:55,520 Speaker 3: anywhere else.

It's really he's finally taking Leader McConnell's 369 00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:13,080 Speaker 8: advice that he's applied to him the same advice he 370 00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:15,640 Speaker 8: gave to President Trump that had worked out, same advice 371 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:20,919 Speaker 8: to President Obama and others.

Had 376 00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:36,080 Speaker 8: we done this back ninety seven days ago, we'd already 377 00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:36,800 Speaker 8: have a bill passed. 378 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:38,600 Speaker 1: Okay. 379 00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:44,639 Speaker 2: That was Speaker McCarthy, who a lot of folks feel 380 00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:48,680 Speaker 2: like has turned over a new leaf in his leadership 381 00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:51,080 Speaker 2: role and has been doing a good job pushing on. 382 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:52,040 Speaker 1: Some important issues. 383 00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:57,200 Speaker 2: Is this one of those issues? I did an unscientific 384 00:19:57,280 --> 00:19:58,960 Speaker 2: poll a few hours ago just to get a quick 385 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:03,160 Speaker 2: snapshot of the audience, or at least the Twitter audience. 386 00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:06,480 Speaker 2: I said, do you care to hear meaning I guess 387 00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:09,320 Speaker 2: like on this show about the debt ceiling fight? Or 388 00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:13,080 Speaker 2: is it all just political theater with a predetermined ending? 389 00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:16,720 Speaker 2: Over three thousand votes. No, it is a waste of 390 00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:22,240 Speaker 2: time one seventy thirty percent. So it's a non scientific poll. 391 00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:28,800 Speaker 2: But here's here's their reality. We spend too much money 392 00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:33,359 Speaker 2: as a country. That is obvious. There are consequences to 393 00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:37,480 Speaker 2: spending too much money. Hello inflation. That was just fast 394 00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:41,119 Speaker 2: money printing because of the lunatic idea of lockdowns for 395 00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:43,720 Speaker 2: COVID not to get I don't want to get I 396 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:45,720 Speaker 2: don't want to leave the debt conversation behind me, Clay, 397 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:47,440 Speaker 2: Can I just note you know now they're starting to 398 00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:51,280 Speaker 2: look back and see that the ventilators killed people. Yeah, 399 00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:55,000 Speaker 2: the ventilators. It wasn't The ventilators didn't save people. The 400 00:20:55,119 --> 00:21:01,840 Speaker 2: ventilators killed people, caused infections in their lungs while they 401 00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:04,359 Speaker 2: were weakened and sick. To give you a sense of 402 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:08,119 Speaker 2: how bad the early stage care was here and how 403 00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:12,639 Speaker 2: much panic was driving decision making, there's a reason why 404 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:15,760 Speaker 2: people would go into the hospital with COVID and if 405 00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:18,120 Speaker 2: they went on a ventilator they basically never came off. 406 00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:21,280 Speaker 2: It was because that was a horrible idea for a 407 00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:23,359 Speaker 2: vast majority of the people they put on it. And 408 00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:25,080 Speaker 2: it's like, we're not supposed to really talk about it 409 00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:27,720 Speaker 2: because I guess the medical community just doesn't want to 410 00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:30,520 Speaker 2: really look at what was done in this country and others. 411 00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:33,560 Speaker 2: But that was one of the worst things in the 412 00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:36,480 Speaker 2: early days of COVID because it wasn't like masks and 413 00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:39,920 Speaker 2: gloves and all that do nothing. The ventilator craze. Remember, 414 00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:44,080 Speaker 2: we needed a million of them. Ventilators killed people in 415 00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:46,480 Speaker 2: numbers that are staggering when you look at it, I 416 00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:49,600 Speaker 2: mean meaning it's it was a misapplication of a care tool. 417 00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:53,760 Speaker 3: Not only that buck all of the ventilators just about 418 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:57,200 Speaker 3: that we rushed production of I think we made millions 419 00:21:57,240 --> 00:22:00,919 Speaker 3: of them, didn't we. They're now being sold for scrap metal. 420 00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:06,159 Speaker 3: So the amount of money that we wasted. This just 421 00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:09,000 Speaker 3: happened in New York City, because you'll remember New York 422 00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 3: City was where the epicenter. Cuomo came out and said, 423 00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:15,400 Speaker 3: we've got to have enough, way more ventilators. We had 424 00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:18,439 Speaker 3: factories flip over start to produce them. Trump, to his credit, 425 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:22,359 Speaker 3: actually predicted that we would produce way more ventilators than 426 00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:25,800 Speaker 3: we possibly needed. And now they are selling these ventilators 427 00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:27,880 Speaker 3: that you and me and all of everybody out there 428 00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:32,320 Speaker 3: listening our taxpayer dollars used I think hundreds of millions, 429 00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:35,639 Speaker 3: if not billions of dollars in ventilators. They now are 430 00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:38,200 Speaker 3: selling them for scrap metal, and we're getting back pennies 431 00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:40,880 Speaker 3: on the dollar for what we spent. Not only did 432 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 3: we kill people by using them, we built way too 433 00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:46,760 Speaker 3: many of them that we couldn't remotely ever use, and 434 00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:48,560 Speaker 3: now they are being turned into scrap metal. 435 00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:53,560 Speaker 2: It's stunning when you look at this and no one again, 436 00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:56,679 Speaker 2: no one takes accountability, no one takes any blame for this. 437 00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:59,440 Speaker 2: But okay, so that was the COVID thing. But spending 438 00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:04,200 Speaker 2: six trulli and this complicates facts because that was spent 439 00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:07,440 Speaker 2: under Trump. And I know people that that upsets some 440 00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:09,879 Speaker 2: folks to hear you say, oh, but it was the pandemic. 441 00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:10,359 Speaker 1: I get it. 442 00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:14,280 Speaker 2: But why didn't the inflation under Joe Biden hit as 443 00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:16,560 Speaker 2: much as we had hoped it would in the twenty 444 00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:19,440 Speaker 2: twenty two election, Because they look and they say six 445 00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:21,840 Speaker 2: trillion of it was spent in the in twenty twenty 446 00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:25,000 Speaker 2: under Trump, And you can, we can try to argue 447 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:25,760 Speaker 2: about it as much. 448 00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:26,320 Speaker 1: As we want. 449 00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:29,240 Speaker 2: For a lot of swing voters that go, yeah, both 450 00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:32,000 Speaker 2: sides spend too much. And that's the key point here. 451 00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:39,000 Speaker 2: Both parties spend too much money. I remember in the 452 00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:41,320 Speaker 2: early days of the Tea Party, we've talked about this. 453 00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:43,960 Speaker 2: What the debt was, twelve trillion or something like that. 454 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:47,120 Speaker 3: Ten trillion the number that we hit that everybody said, 455 00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:48,920 Speaker 3: oh my god, really take notice here. 456 00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:50,920 Speaker 2: And we're going to be at forty trillion dollars here 457 00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:54,119 Speaker 2: pretty soon. And you know, we're at thirty three right now, 458 00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:58,120 Speaker 2: and it's here. The problem is we have too many 459 00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:01,000 Speaker 2: people who want stuff from the gun gover. And as 460 00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:03,840 Speaker 2: long as individuals feel like they can vote themselves more 461 00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:06,480 Speaker 2: goodies than they have to pay for themselves, as long 462 00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:09,920 Speaker 2: as they buy into that central lie of our federal 463 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:14,560 Speaker 2: government spending, this doesn't get better. And this is the 464 00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:16,639 Speaker 2: challenge that we have. No one wants to be the 465 00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:19,240 Speaker 2: one that says there's no Santa Claus. Nobody wants to 466 00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:22,720 Speaker 2: be accused of austerity or kicking seniors off there whatever. 467 00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:24,119 Speaker 1: You know, fill in the blank. 468 00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:27,480 Speaker 2: And so what happens this It just turns into an 469 00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:29,440 Speaker 2: arms race of I want to be in power, I'll 470 00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:32,320 Speaker 2: spend even more. And this whole thing about the debt 471 00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:35,680 Speaker 2: ceiling fight, they're probably and I have to look into that. 472 00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:40,199 Speaker 2: They're probably arguing about the percentage increase, not even a 473 00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:43,480 Speaker 2: true cut in any meaningful sense in the budget. So, 474 00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:47,879 Speaker 2: my friends, this is where we've this. This is I 475 00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:50,040 Speaker 2: think why people get so frustrated, Clay, because it feels 476 00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:52,280 Speaker 2: like we're making no progress here. 477 00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:54,800 Speaker 3: Not only that, Buck, if you just go back to 478 00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:58,840 Speaker 3: the last budget that we did before COVID twenty nineteen, 479 00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:03,080 Speaker 3: the new normal that has been established in terms of 480 00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:06,760 Speaker 3: what the United States government spends is not going even 481 00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:10,359 Speaker 3: back to twenty nineteen levels. It's now going back to 482 00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:15,000 Speaker 3: the elevated COVID numbers. We're reducing what we were spending 483 00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:18,480 Speaker 3: starting in twenty twenty, but on a per capita basis, 484 00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:21,080 Speaker 3: we spent more. And I believe this is correct. Our 485 00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:23,119 Speaker 3: staff can can one hundred percent confirm it. But the 486 00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:26,439 Speaker 3: data that I have seen says that we spent more 487 00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:30,480 Speaker 3: to combat COVID than we did to win World War Two. 488 00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:35,399 Speaker 3: Now that kind of puts into perspective how much of 489 00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:40,679 Speaker 3: an overreaction all of this was. And if you go 490 00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:45,520 Speaker 3: back in hindsight in twenty twenty, I would love the 491 00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:48,920 Speaker 3: Marvel multiverse, you know that exists, Buck, What would have 492 00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:52,240 Speaker 3: happened if somebody like ran Paul had been in office 493 00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:56,680 Speaker 3: when COVID happened. Now, COVID hitting in an election year 494 00:25:56,920 --> 00:25:59,359 Speaker 3: was the worst year. And I understand some of you 495 00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:01,560 Speaker 3: out there. That's why you believe because a lot of 496 00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:04,719 Speaker 3: our audience buck doesn't just believe that COVID leaked out 497 00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:06,600 Speaker 3: of a lab. There are some of you out there 498 00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:10,359 Speaker 3: that believe that China intentionally leaked. Now I'm not taking 499 00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:13,040 Speaker 3: that next step, but the fact that this happened in 500 00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:16,159 Speaker 3: twenty twenty If this had happened in twenty nineteen, or 501 00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:18,920 Speaker 3: if this had happened in twenty twenty one, I think 502 00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:22,040 Speaker 3: our national response to COVID would have been far more 503 00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:28,840 Speaker 3: rational and less less sort of hyper emotional and illogical. 504 00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:31,080 Speaker 3: The fact that it was an election year always makes 505 00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:34,080 Speaker 3: these things worse. But I wish we could go back 506 00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:37,040 Speaker 3: in the multiverse and have somebody like ran Paul in 507 00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:40,360 Speaker 3: the presidency to see how he could have handled this 508 00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:42,200 Speaker 3: as a doctor speaking to the nation. 509 00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:44,720 Speaker 2: I've always felt this way, and I know we just 510 00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:48,240 Speaker 2: had Senator Paul on yesterday, And I say this with 511 00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:51,919 Speaker 2: the utmost respect. I don't think he's just he's not 512 00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:54,480 Speaker 2: a guy to win a national election. I think he'd 513 00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:56,880 Speaker 2: be a really good president. Yeah, so I don't think 514 00:26:56,920 --> 00:26:58,639 Speaker 2: that he could win the campaign because that's just he 515 00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:02,240 Speaker 2: doesn't have those those instincts that he's too brusque. 516 00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:05,440 Speaker 3: He's too brusque, he's too like, you know, just like cutting. 517 00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:08,520 Speaker 3: I think in many ways, if you put him in charge, 518 00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:11,439 Speaker 3: if you put him in charge, he would do a 519 00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:14,120 Speaker 3: really good job. I believe that firmly. I think he's 520 00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:17,040 Speaker 3: because it's also not all about him. It's not really 521 00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:19,040 Speaker 3: just about the glory of the guy in the office. 522 00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:21,159 Speaker 3: So I think he'd be excellent. And he's still If 523 00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:23,720 Speaker 3: you had to draft somebody who's not in politics right 524 00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:25,720 Speaker 3: now to be president of the United States. 525 00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:28,919 Speaker 1: Who would you draft? Oh god, I can't even I've 526 00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:29,760 Speaker 1: got two answers. 527 00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:32,600 Speaker 2: I mean, you have this ready to go president United 528 00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:35,959 Speaker 2: States who is not even in politics. Throw me your 529 00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:38,359 Speaker 2: answers and it might jog my brain a little bit. 530 00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:40,800 Speaker 2: Here should we tease it? Is that an incredible tease 531 00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:42,880 Speaker 2: and we'll come back because I want to let's do that. 532 00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:44,359 Speaker 2: That's how the radio game is played. 533 00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:44,960 Speaker 1: I want to know. 534 00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:48,639 Speaker 2: I also want to celebrate a life you saved. If 535 00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:51,720 Speaker 2: you've donated to the Preborn Network of Clinics, you have 536 00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:55,720 Speaker 2: very likely saved a life for many pregnant mothers considering 537 00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:58,920 Speaker 2: life or abortion for their unborn child. Preborn makes all 538 00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:02,119 Speaker 2: the difference. Ver seemed like the only option for Mackenzie, 539 00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:05,359 Speaker 2: but she and her boyfriend agreed to an ultrasound. It 540 00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:07,240 Speaker 2: was still too early to determine if her baby was 541 00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:10,040 Speaker 2: healthy and viable, but her client advocate was able to 542 00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:14,000 Speaker 2: help them understand better fetal development and what is involved 543 00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:17,080 Speaker 2: in an abortion, and they were both horrified. They were 544 00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:19,680 Speaker 2: invited to come back for a second ultrasound. After hearing 545 00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:23,600 Speaker 2: her baby's heartbeat, it became real, but she still wasn't sure, 546 00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:26,359 Speaker 2: and when the Preborn staff member showed her the miracle 547 00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:30,200 Speaker 2: of life after the third ultrasound, she and her boyfriend 548 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:33,199 Speaker 2: decided to keep their baby, and now they're signing up 549 00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:38,560 Speaker 2: for parenting classes and other services offered by Preborn Clinics. 550 00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:42,160 Speaker 2: Preborn's Network of Clinics brings hope to pregnant women considering 551 00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:44,720 Speaker 2: an abortion, and it does this by providing them with 552 00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:48,600 Speaker 2: free ultrasounds.

Finish the 563 00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:28,600 Speaker 3: last segment what what we call in the business a tease? 564 00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:32,800 Speaker 3: Who could you draft to be President of the United 565 00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:35,360 Speaker 3: States right now? I just was tossing out to Buck 566 00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:38,720 Speaker 3: that I would love to see how someone like rand Paul, 567 00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:42,760 Speaker 3: who has a medical background could have handled COVID in 568 00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:45,080 Speaker 3: a way that would have been different. And let me confirm, 569 00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:48,120 Speaker 3: by the way, this is correct, Buck. We spent our 570 00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:54,080 Speaker 3: staff confirmed. Uh, we spent five point two trillion dollars 571 00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:58,440 Speaker 3: on COVID relief. Five point two trillion. It cost US 572 00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:02,240 Speaker 3: four point seven trilli million to win World War two. 573 00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:05,880 Speaker 3: So if you're just out there and you are frustrated 574 00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:09,840 Speaker 3: about public policy responses, and I believe those numbers are 575 00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:12,960 Speaker 3: inflation adjusted, because four point seven trillion dollars in the 576 00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:16,160 Speaker 3: nineteen forties would have been like unprecedented to be able 577 00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:21,480 Speaker 3: to spend. So we spent more money to combat COVID, 578 00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:25,120 Speaker 3: a virus for which basically we did nothing to stop 579 00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:28,920 Speaker 3: it from spreading, than we did to beat the Nazis 580 00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:32,440 Speaker 3: in World War two, to just kind of factor that in. Okay, 581 00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:36,080 Speaker 3: I've got two names. One and I know he's not eligible. 582 00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:37,720 Speaker 1: Elon Musk. 583 00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:42,440 Speaker 3: I actually think Elon Musk would be a good president 584 00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:45,000 Speaker 3: in the sense that he would recognize the things that 585 00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:49,600 Speaker 3: are most important commit fully to trying to solve them. Now, 586 00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:52,560 Speaker 3: he is an African American. He is born in South Africa, 587 00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:56,560 Speaker 3: I believe, so he is not eligible to be elected president. 588 00:30:57,480 --> 00:30:59,080 Speaker 1: This one's from the world of sports. 589 00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:03,920 Speaker 3: I think Saban University of Alabama football coach, would be 590 00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:06,560 Speaker 3: a really good president of the United States. What both 591 00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:09,200 Speaker 3: of those guys have, buck, I think, is the ability 592 00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:13,040 Speaker 3: to focus on things that matter, have tunnel vision, and 593 00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:15,480 Speaker 3: not really care about the external noise. 594 00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:17,640 Speaker 1: But they are fixers. 595 00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:20,440 Speaker 3: They can look at problems, they can address them, and 596 00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:22,720 Speaker 3: they can fix them. And I think both of them 597 00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:25,080 Speaker 3: have pretty good communication skills. 598 00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:26,960 Speaker 2: In general, tell me the two It was Nick Saban 599 00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:30,920 Speaker 2: and Elon Musk Elon, I mean Elon was who I 600 00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:36,720 Speaker 2: thought you were going to say, that's interesting. Does he 601 00:31:36,760 --> 00:31:39,640 Speaker 2: want to run? You know, there's somebody else who could 602 00:31:39,680 --> 00:31:41,840 Speaker 2: run if you wanted to. Right now, I think, well, 603 00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:45,520 Speaker 2: I guess it hasn't really been not necessarily right now, 604 00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:47,680 Speaker 2: What if Tucker decided to run at some point? 605 00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:49,520 Speaker 1: Do you think Tucker would be a good president. 606 00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:52,160 Speaker 2: I think Tucker would be a great president. I think 607 00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:54,680 Speaker 2: it would be both effective and hilarious at the same time. 608 00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:58,040 Speaker 2: Like he would be hilarious just because he's funny, and 609 00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:00,320 Speaker 2: I think he'd be effective too, because I think I 610 00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:03,640 Speaker 2: think he sees he sees the matrix. You know, he 611 00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:07,840 Speaker 2: understands what's true, what's not, how the how the powerful, 612 00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:09,880 Speaker 2: how the elite try to gain the system for their 613 00:32:09,920 --> 00:32:11,040 Speaker 2: you know, to their own ends. 614 00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:11,840 Speaker 7: Uh. 615 00:32:11,920 --> 00:32:17,080 Speaker 2: He's not awed by or or fearful of the ruling class, 616 00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:21,600 Speaker 2: which especially people in d C tend to be. You know, 617 00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:24,520 Speaker 2: there's even they all want proximity to power. They all 618 00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:26,640 Speaker 2: they all want to sort of you know, scrape and 619 00:32:26,760 --> 00:32:30,800 Speaker 2: bag at the throne, and uh, it's gross and it's 620 00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:33,880 Speaker 2: not good for the people that they're trying to represent 621 00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:36,880 Speaker 2: or that they're supposed to be thinking of, and the 622 00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:39,360 Speaker 2: rest of the country. So I think he'd be very interesting. 623 00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:41,520 Speaker 2: I mean, look, I've said Elon is. I think Elon's 624 00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:43,720 Speaker 2: a genius. I think that when you have that level 625 00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:47,960 Speaker 2: of vision and managerial acumen, it's I think it's easy 626 00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:49,000 Speaker 2: to say someone's a genius. 627 00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:49,640 Speaker 5: Uh. 628 00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:51,800 Speaker 2: And you know, for a lot of Steve Jobs, wasn't 629 00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:55,360 Speaker 2: some brilliant data engineer or something. Really he was a 630 00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:58,880 Speaker 2: vision guy and really kind of a salesman, you know, 631 00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:02,760 Speaker 2: able to sell ideas. And I think the quote for 632 00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:06,240 Speaker 2: those of you who are car fans about Enzo Ferrari 633 00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:10,400 Speaker 2: and this is this is from listening to the founder's podcast. 634 00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:11,959 Speaker 1: I can't remember the guy's name. 635 00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:15,040 Speaker 2: It's a good podcast though, but he talks about Enzo 636 00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:17,680 Speaker 2: Ferrari and how he wasn't a great he tried to 637 00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:20,000 Speaker 2: be a Formula one driver himself. Wasn't that This is 638 00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:21,960 Speaker 2: the founder of Ferrari, which we all know it's one 639 00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:24,840 Speaker 2: of the most globally recognizable brands. But he referred to 640 00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:28,200 Speaker 2: himself as a great agitator of men, as in he 641 00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:30,400 Speaker 2: was just good at getting a bunch of guys in 642 00:33:30,480 --> 00:33:33,440 Speaker 2: a room and being like, we are all excellence, we 643 00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:35,520 Speaker 2: are going to do world changing stuff, and you are 644 00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:37,920 Speaker 2: not leaving, and you're not seeing your wife and you're 645 00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:40,920 Speaker 2: not having dinner until it's done. That was his skill set, 646 00:33:40,920 --> 00:33:43,160 Speaker 2: and he built a globally recognized brand basically out of 647 00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:46,920 Speaker 2: his garage. And I think Elon has a similar skill 648 00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:49,760 Speaker 2: set in terms of bringing together good people but also 649 00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:53,000 Speaker 2: understanding the long term vision. Long term vision is so 650 00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:57,040 Speaker 2: lacking right now, Yeah, because because we're almost in this 651 00:33:57,160 --> 00:34:01,160 Speaker 2: information overflow where eating you're in this fire hose of 652 00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:04,280 Speaker 2: all new stuff, new data, quarterly reports, daily reports. What 653 00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:07,560 Speaker 2: are the metrics telling us? Sometimes the metrics have to 654 00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:09,480 Speaker 2: be put aside for where will the metrics be in 655 00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:12,480 Speaker 2: five years or ten years? And I think Elon can 656 00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:12,799 Speaker 2: do that. 657 00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:15,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, he had a great quote and I'm paraphrasing the quote, 658 00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:18,880 Speaker 3: but he's like, everybody is trying to get ten percent better. 659 00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:21,720 Speaker 3: You know, in your business, you got to make quarterly numbers. 660 00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:24,160 Speaker 3: You got to figure out how to get ten percent better, 661 00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:28,839 Speaker 3: and short term thinking ten percent better, nobody's thinking like, hey, 662 00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:31,160 Speaker 3: where are things going to be in ten years? Because 663 00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:34,040 Speaker 3: that's how you can gain a competitive advantage and the 664 00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:37,040 Speaker 3: world of sports. The great way to describe this back 665 00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:39,920 Speaker 3: in the day was Wayne Gretzky. They asked him how 666 00:34:39,960 --> 00:34:42,480 Speaker 3: he scored so many goals. He said, I don't skate 667 00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:44,719 Speaker 3: where the puck is. I skate where the puck's going 668 00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:47,880 Speaker 3: to be. And again I'm paraphrasing on the quote, but 669 00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:51,399 Speaker 3: that's how you have that vision for excellence, and it's 670 00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:55,680 Speaker 3: beyond the immediate moments where everybody's reacting. Building on your 671 00:34:55,719 --> 00:35:00,120 Speaker 3: Tucker comments, Buck, if you were Donald Trump, and you 672 00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:03,920 Speaker 3: you are right now the foremost leader in the Republican Party, 673 00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:09,640 Speaker 3: how seriously would you consider offering your vice presidential spot 674 00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:10,840 Speaker 3: to Tucker Carlson? 675 00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:13,759 Speaker 1: Wait if I wait? 676 00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:16,399 Speaker 3: If I were Trump is the leader right now, he's 677 00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:17,799 Speaker 3: got to be a part of his part of his 678 00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:20,839 Speaker 3: leadership is who he picks. His VP is a big 679 00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:23,360 Speaker 3: deal because he's only got four years. Let's pretend that 680 00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:27,400 Speaker 3: he's the nominee. Would you consider Tucker as one of 681 00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:30,319 Speaker 3: the let's say seven or eight guys or girls that 682 00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:34,400 Speaker 3: are in his binder of potential VP candidates. Would you 683 00:35:34,480 --> 00:35:37,200 Speaker 3: make him in your mind? I don't know if he'd 684 00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:39,440 Speaker 3: take it, but would you make him one of the 685 00:35:39,440 --> 00:35:41,360 Speaker 3: guys that you would consider if you were Trump. 686 00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:44,240 Speaker 2: I on think Tucker would want to be a vice president. 687 00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:48,400 Speaker 3: I think a vice president. Would you consider him for it? Right, Yes, 688 00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:49,320 Speaker 3: I think it? 689 00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:52,880 Speaker 2: Well no, because really, if we're going to be serious 690 00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:55,080 Speaker 2: about this, you've already said this. I think this is 691 00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:55,840 Speaker 2: so true. 692 00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:58,080 Speaker 1: You need a VP. 693 00:35:59,080 --> 00:36:01,840 Speaker 2: The real value of a VP, let's be honest, is 694 00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:04,760 Speaker 2: to be there just in case. That is the reason 695 00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:08,520 Speaker 2: for the role, and to maybe deliver a state in 696 00:36:08,560 --> 00:36:11,799 Speaker 2: the election in the first place. So the smart move 697 00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:14,680 Speaker 2: for a VP. And please for the Trump team, because 698 00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:16,440 Speaker 2: I know you're listening. Okay, at least some of them 699 00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:20,040 Speaker 2: are pick a VP who will help win an important 700 00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:22,040 Speaker 2: state that you need to want to become president. 701 00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:25,200 Speaker 1: No, you're totally right. You're totally right. All this other 702 00:36:25,239 --> 00:36:27,520 Speaker 1: stuff of like, oh, brings like this skill. 703 00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:31,000 Speaker 3: Set along, Well, what's their repue, what's the what's their interaction? 704 00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:34,640 Speaker 2: Like everybody can win a worthless meaningless The vice president 705 00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:37,360 Speaker 2: of the president don't even hang out when they're actually in office. 706 00:36:37,400 --> 00:36:40,040 Speaker 2: I mean they live in different places. Again for a 707 00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:42,920 Speaker 2: good reason. So that's how I see it. What do 708 00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:45,080 Speaker 2: you got firs next, Clay, I'm excited.
