1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,320 Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Buck 2 00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:06,840 Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. Welcome back in we are rolling through 3 00:00:07,040 --> 00:00:09,719 Speaker 1: our two I am Clay Travis, he is Buck Sexton. 4 00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:13,280 Speaker 1: I appreciate all of you hanging out with us. We 5 00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:17,599 Speaker 1: have got a loaded show. I would say Afghanistan, twenty 6 00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:25,360 Speaker 1: years overseas battle, that war, that never ending struggle, still 7 00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:28,240 Speaker 1: honestly going on. But we now have pulled all of 8 00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:33,400 Speaker 1: our combat troops from that location. The battle over COVID 9 00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:37,400 Speaker 1: intensifies as the Department of Justice is arguing that there 10 00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:41,680 Speaker 1: are civil rights violations associated with that. We are scheduled 11 00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:45,320 Speaker 1: in the next hour to be joined by forty five himself, 12 00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:49,400 Speaker 1: Former President Donald Trump. Should be a good conversation there. 13 00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:52,960 Speaker 1: Joe Biden scheduled to address the nation at the bottom 14 00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:57,960 Speaker 1: of this hour to discuss the departure from Afghanistan. We 15 00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:02,280 Speaker 1: have got insanity at buck Sexton's old college, Amherst that 16 00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:05,199 Speaker 1: we still have to discuss. The rules will blow your 17 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:08,240 Speaker 1: mind in terms of what they are requiring kids who 18 00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:12,560 Speaker 1: are almost all vaccinated on campus to be doing. But 19 00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:17,039 Speaker 1: we want to start here. Do you remember, because certainly 20 00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:19,800 Speaker 1: we do. We played this clip for you. Remember how 21 00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:25,720 Speaker 1: Jensaki sake bomb herself little Red lyinghood. How she said 22 00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:29,520 Speaker 1: that she was really offended when Peter Doocey of Fox 23 00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:33,480 Speaker 1: News pointed out that we were likely to be stranding, 24 00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:36,640 Speaker 1: likely to be stranding people in Afghanistan. She had a 25 00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:41,319 Speaker 1: real issue with the use of the word stranded. Let's 26 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:43,679 Speaker 1: listen to that clip and refresh your memories. First of all, 27 00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:46,319 Speaker 1: I think it's irresponsible to say Americans are stranded. They're not. 28 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:49,040 Speaker 1: We are committed to bringing Americans who want to come 29 00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:51,279 Speaker 1: home home. We are in touch with them via phone, 30 00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:55,320 Speaker 1: via text, the email, anyway that we can possibly reach 31 00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:58,080 Speaker 1: Americans to get them home if they want to return 32 00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:02,440 Speaker 1: home or no Americans stranded the White House's official position. 33 00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 1: I'm just calling you out for a sting that we 34 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:09,480 Speaker 1: are stranding Americans in Afghanistan. When I said, when we 35 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:12,600 Speaker 1: have been very clear that we are not leaving Americans 36 00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 1: who want to return home. We are going to bring 37 00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:16,560 Speaker 1: them home. And I think that's important for the American 38 00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:20,079 Speaker 1: public to hear and understand. I might have been important 39 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:21,960 Speaker 1: for them to hear and understand, but they can now 40 00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:24,720 Speaker 1: hear and understand that you were lying, because this is 41 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 1: what Pentagon spokesperson Kirby said just yesterday about people being 42 00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 1: left behind aka stranded in Afghanistan who are American citizens. 43 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:37,639 Speaker 1: So what does that look like? How does diplomacy get 44 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:41,680 Speaker 1: those people out of the Taliban controlled Afghanistan? It's not 45 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 1: completely unlike the way we do it elsewhere around the world. 46 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:47,720 Speaker 1: I mean, we have Americans that get stranded in countries 47 00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:51,519 Speaker 1: all the time. First of all, in Clay, do you 48 00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:54,520 Speaker 1: think that do you think that Peter Doucy gets an 49 00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:57,120 Speaker 1: I'm sorry note and maybe a little fruit basket or 50 00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 1: something from Jen Saki because he I think he is 51 00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 1: as one after the Press secretary. There was being so 52 00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:07,440 Speaker 1: many lies if they get caught in so quickly, Buck, 53 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:09,679 Speaker 1: it's different like, hey, if you give me an opinion, 54 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:12,680 Speaker 1: and the opinion can be right or wrong, But to 55 00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:16,200 Speaker 1: be so earnest about the fact that no one was 56 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 1: going to be stranded and then have your own Pentagon saying, oh, 57 00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:23,360 Speaker 1: we strand people all the time. Look so, of course 58 00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 1: the Biden administration has the messaging during this has been 59 00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:30,840 Speaker 1: a disaster because it's messaging about a disaster, right, they 60 00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:35,480 Speaker 1: can't hide from the videos that we've all seen. And 61 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:37,360 Speaker 1: this is different as we've pointed out than what you 62 00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 1: would have in other situations where an authoritarian regime, whether 63 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:44,840 Speaker 1: it's the Iranians, the Chinese, the Russians could shut down things, 64 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:46,960 Speaker 1: you know, unrest and things like that that they do. 65 00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:50,119 Speaker 1: I mean, people were I had friends who were texting me, Hey, 66 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 1: I'm texting with so and so on the ground right 67 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 1: now in Afghanistan. Here's what he's telling me, or here's 68 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:57,000 Speaker 1: the photo that is being sent out right now, what 69 00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 1: the checkpoints look like. So it's it's a very different circumstance. 70 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:03,400 Speaker 1: As a result of that, they couldn't really control the messaging. 71 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 1: But on the issue of the Okay, so you rightly 72 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 1: have now fillaid that lie like a fish, right, I mean, 73 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:13,600 Speaker 1: clearly it was a big lie that they weren't stranded 74 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:16,040 Speaker 1: or they weren't going to be stranded. What do we 75 00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 1: do about it? At this phase though, and this is 76 00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:21,760 Speaker 1: where we are all reminded of the fact that the 77 00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:25,560 Speaker 1: Taliban not only had leverage up to the point when 78 00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:28,039 Speaker 1: the last and there's that now soon to be iconic 79 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 1: photo of the last US soldier leaving Afghanistan the back 80 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:34,880 Speaker 1: of a transport plane. But Clay, we're gonna have to 81 00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:38,840 Speaker 1: ask the Taliban very nicely. Sure, we're gonna say, oh, 82 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:40,839 Speaker 1: if you don't give us back our people, but they're 83 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:43,160 Speaker 1: gonna say, oh, we have to vet, we have our 84 00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 1: own processes, and it will be a drip drip drip 85 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 1: of people able to leave. And this is I think 86 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:51,840 Speaker 1: best case scenario of Americans. By the way, the Afghans 87 00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 1: were left behind. I hope God is with them and 88 00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:56,720 Speaker 1: keeps them safe, because we're not gonna be able to 89 00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:58,560 Speaker 1: do very much for them right now at all. There's 90 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:01,359 Speaker 1: already reports of door to door executions going so, but 91 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:03,520 Speaker 1: put aside the Afghans who are left behind, who were 92 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 1: with us, the Americans who were left behind. Taliban's got 93 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:10,040 Speaker 1: these great bargaining chips, bargaining chips that they're going to 94 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 1: use very effectively in the weeks and months ahead. That's 95 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:16,640 Speaker 1: what we're up against. And not only the Taliban, buck 96 00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 1: all of these other terrorist organizations which could in theory 97 00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:25,919 Speaker 1: be able to either kidnap and try to hold for 98 00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 1: ransom American citizens. They could torture and kill American citizens, 99 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:34,359 Speaker 1: as we have seen many of these different terror groups 100 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:38,360 Speaker 1: do in an effort to have videos go viral. We 101 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:42,320 Speaker 1: have a sort of way to think about it, I 102 00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:45,880 Speaker 1: think is there were some fifty some odd people who 103 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:49,440 Speaker 1: were caught in the embassy in Tehran back in the day, 104 00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:52,120 Speaker 1: went with Jimmy Carter and all of the chaos that 105 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:56,560 Speaker 1: befell that situation. There are hundreds of American citizens now 106 00:05:56,680 --> 00:06:00,960 Speaker 1: left behind in Afghanistan. How many of those American citizens 107 00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:07,039 Speaker 1: are in danger of violent death and or terror? I 108 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:09,720 Speaker 1: would think all of them. And it's not just from 109 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:12,080 Speaker 1: the Taliban, who I don't think we can trust. But 110 00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 1: we know isis K is trying to blow up everything. 111 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:17,040 Speaker 1: We know Al Qaida is moving into Afghanistan. There are 112 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:19,720 Speaker 1: a lot of different groups over and above of the 113 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:22,640 Speaker 1: Taliban that could be taking advantage of these American citizens. 114 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 1: We heard from General McKenzie yesterday specifically about how many 115 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 1: isis K would they describe as the hardcore fighters. Remember 116 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 1: this is the Islamic State Chorisson branch, because the Islamic 117 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:39,360 Speaker 1: State project, which began in Syria and then spread into 118 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:41,839 Speaker 1: a rock very quickly under the Obama administration. We all 119 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:44,839 Speaker 1: remember the rise of ISIS, which they bizarrely insisted on 120 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:47,159 Speaker 1: calling ISLA. Now, as we know, no one calls it that, 121 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:50,360 Speaker 1: but the people in the Obama administration were very high 122 00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:53,520 Speaker 1: on thinking they were just smarter than everybody else, and 123 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:57,200 Speaker 1: that group then set up franchises effectively all over isis 124 00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:00,560 Speaker 1: K is the Afghanistan franchise. That's how they refer to 125 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:03,240 Speaker 1: chorus on. As I've explained, it comes from a hadith 126 00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:06,040 Speaker 1: about black banners marching all the way to Jerusalem from 127 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:08,680 Speaker 1: what is today's Afghanistan. And there's a whole end of 128 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 1: Days thing, clay, but we won't get into that right now. 129 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:15,120 Speaker 1: But here's what the General says about how many of 130 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:18,960 Speaker 1: those fighters, not Taliban isis K fighters are in Afghanistan. 131 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 1: They remain a very lethal force, and I think we 132 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:24,240 Speaker 1: would assess that probably there are at least two thousand 133 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:28,080 Speaker 1: hardcore ISIS fighters in Afghanistan now, and of course many 134 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 1: of those come from the prisons that were there were 135 00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 1: opened a few days ago, so that number is up 136 00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:34,560 Speaker 1: and as probably as high as it's ever been in 137 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:36,920 Speaker 1: quite a while. It's higher than that, I can tell 138 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:39,360 Speaker 1: you whatever they say, the number is right now. Having 139 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:43,040 Speaker 1: not just read but written a lot of intelligence assessments 140 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 1: and seeing how this stuff gets processed at the top level. 141 00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 1: When it finally is if they say two thousand, Clay, 142 00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 1: it's I would say more like ten thousand. And what's 143 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:55,480 Speaker 1: fascinating to see play out is you have the Taliban, 144 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 1: you have the Hakani network, which is which is largely 145 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:02,960 Speaker 1: Pakistan base but very involved in the Taliban as well. 146 00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:06,760 Speaker 1: You have and now of course all over Afghanistan already 147 00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 1: at the senior leadership level of the Taliban. You have 148 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:12,480 Speaker 1: al Qaeda, you have ISIS. You have these different factions 149 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:19,000 Speaker 1: that are all in this soup of jihadism. And while 150 00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:21,240 Speaker 1: the Taliban right now may find it in their interests 151 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:24,240 Speaker 1: and they're being pragmatic, is the word of the day 152 00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:28,480 Speaker 1: that the bidministrations using isis K could you know, the 153 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 1: most committed often wins. They could start making some games, 154 00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:33,440 Speaker 1: They could all of a sudden start bright. You know, 155 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:35,199 Speaker 1: who knows how that's going to play out, is what 156 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:38,640 Speaker 1: I'm saying. So we're in a volatile situation, even beyond 157 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:42,319 Speaker 1: just the realities of the Taliban. It's possible that Afghanistan 158 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:44,880 Speaker 1: is going to descend into full on civil war with 159 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:50,440 Speaker 1: multiple different terrorist or terrorist aligned organizations controlling different parts 160 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 1: of this country feuding with each other, making it that 161 00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:57,680 Speaker 1: much more difficult. I would imagine for American intelligence, which 162 00:08:57,679 --> 00:09:00,120 Speaker 1: has already failed on an epic level in Afghanistan, and 163 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:03,520 Speaker 1: to be able to figure out who the most dangerous 164 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:07,600 Speaker 1: aspects and proponents of terrorism in this country are, all 165 00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:11,400 Speaker 1: the while not having an easy method by which to 166 00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 1: get people out of the country. And we played in 167 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:15,880 Speaker 1: the first hour, and I think it's significant Buck a 168 00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:19,960 Speaker 1: family of four from Houston. They have American passports, they 169 00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:24,080 Speaker 1: are American citizens. They were unable to get out of Afghanistan. 170 00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:27,440 Speaker 1: Can you even imagine? Can you imagine what it is 171 00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:31,200 Speaker 1: like to be an American citizen who is now shut 172 00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:34,959 Speaker 1: into Afghanistan with our troops having abandoned you and left you. 173 00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 1: It's terrifying. It's a nightmare. But Clay think of it 174 00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:40,360 Speaker 1: also this way. We know that going back to the 175 00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:43,720 Speaker 1: point about the stranded Americans, Yes, stranded is the word. 176 00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:46,560 Speaker 1: It's actually worse than that. This is a It feels 177 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:49,920 Speaker 1: more like a de facto hostage situation, right, because that's 178 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:52,680 Speaker 1: what I think everybody's afraid of. They were prevented from 179 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:56,160 Speaker 1: actually getting to the airport by the Taliban. You have 180 00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:58,680 Speaker 1: to wonder why they did that and whom they chose. 181 00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:01,800 Speaker 1: Remember the lists that they said, The American lists that 182 00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 1: were handed out by administration said they were, and then 183 00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:06,439 Speaker 1: they said they weren't. Some were prevented from getting to 184 00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 1: the airport. But as we go forward here, I think 185 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:15,000 Speaker 1: the idea would have been early on, oh you know what, fine, 186 00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 1: we'll pull out of Afghanistan, Clay, but we'll make sure 187 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 1: that we isolate Afghanistan. We'll make sure we bring all 188 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:24,760 Speaker 1: this diplomatic pressure to bear so the Taliban knows that 189 00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:27,120 Speaker 1: there's still a pariah state and all the rest of it. 190 00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:30,680 Speaker 1: That's gonna be a lot harder. While our diplomats are 191 00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:34,360 Speaker 1: meeting with them in you know, Cutter or the UAE 192 00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:37,240 Speaker 1: or wherever, as well as other diplomats from around the world. 193 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:40,440 Speaker 1: We're not going to be able to tell China, for example, hey, 194 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:43,679 Speaker 1: all these business projects you're planning in Afghanistan, the pipelines 195 00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:46,439 Speaker 1: you're thinking about, whatever it may be, don't do that, 196 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:49,120 Speaker 1: because the Chinese will look at us and say, I mean, 197 00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 1: they've got your people, like, don't you want your people back? 198 00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 1: I mean the leverage this creates for them diplomatically is 199 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:57,040 Speaker 1: going to mean they're and I think they're smart enough 200 00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:58,959 Speaker 1: to see, at least over the next six to twelve months, 201 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:01,960 Speaker 1: they're gonna mess themselves in the international community. You're gonna 202 00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:06,840 Speaker 1: have You're gonna have Taliban dudes walking around the capitals 203 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:10,600 Speaker 1: of our allies having meetings within six to twelve months. 204 00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:13,520 Speaker 1: That's what I think is gonna happen here. Also, let 205 00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:17,040 Speaker 1: me just mention the CNN the family of four. I 206 00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:19,640 Speaker 1: can't get out of my head right now what the 207 00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:23,400 Speaker 1: dad is hearing from the mom about being stuck in 208 00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 1: Afghanistan right now? They went according to Claristo Ward's story, 209 00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:31,400 Speaker 1: they went over to go visit a family. Everybody who 210 00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:34,400 Speaker 1: is married, Buck, You're not married right now. Anytime you 211 00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:36,760 Speaker 1: make a bad decision, as I never have been. By 212 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 1: the way, can I just say the Internet says I 213 00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:40,640 Speaker 1: am married. That is false. That's been put it out 214 00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 1: to me recently. I've never geten married. Let me give 215 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:45,840 Speaker 1: you a little tip right now, as soon as you 216 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:49,360 Speaker 1: are the dad, any time you make a decision that 217 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:54,640 Speaker 1: is bad, your wife remembers your errors forever. And so 218 00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 1: I'm just trying to picture, in addition to the fact 219 00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 1: that you are stuck in Afghanistan, if the dad was 220 00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:02,800 Speaker 1: the one who said, oh yeah, trust me, we can 221 00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 1: get over to Afghanistan and go visit the family. It's 222 00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:08,839 Speaker 1: the Taliban's not gonna take over the country right now. 223 00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:11,720 Speaker 1: We'll be fine. We'll take the kids, we'll fly over 224 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:15,520 Speaker 1: from Houston. Everything will go smooth. I don't know that 225 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 1: that poorer dad right now, if he can. You imagine 226 00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 1: every married man out there right now, if you were 227 00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:24,040 Speaker 1: the dad who had been like, hey, we got time 228 00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:26,560 Speaker 1: to get to Afghanistan.

That woman, they're sitting in some 230 00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:32,720 Speaker 1: awful place right now, unable to get out, and she's 231 00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:35,360 Speaker 1: like just over and over again, saying you said this 232 00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:37,520 Speaker 1: was gonna be fine. You said we were gonna be 233 00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:39,000 Speaker 1: able to get out. You do not want to be 234 00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:42,360 Speaker 1: the dad holding up an old map saying I know 235 00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:44,640 Speaker 1: where I am. The Kaiber Pass is just around the 236 00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:47,599 Speaker 1: corner Pakistan right there.

That would be, that would be interesting. He 288 00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:29,960 Speaker 1: would I would be very state president. I would be 289 00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:35,880 Speaker 1: very respectful, but firm firm on how he's a terrible president. 290 00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:39,000 Speaker 1: So but anyway, he's gonna be addressing the country at 291 00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:41,760 Speaker 1: one oh well in a few minutes if he's on time, 292 00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:44,560 Speaker 1: which he probably won't be. But Clay, I had want 293 00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:46,520 Speaker 1: to say this for a while Amherst College where I 294 00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:48,920 Speaker 1: went to school, not to be confused with U Mass Amherst, 295 00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:51,200 Speaker 1: which was right down the road to different school. People 296 00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:54,200 Speaker 1: always get them confused. I went to Amherst College and 297 00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:57,400 Speaker 1: it's the town at one point banned the use of 298 00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:00,640 Speaker 1: nuclear weapons through the town council, Like that's the kind 299 00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:04,880 Speaker 1: of crazy. The UN flag was, I believe, flying above 300 00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:07,840 Speaker 1: the American flag in the town square for a while. 301 00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:10,360 Speaker 1: I may or may not have known somebody who pulled 302 00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:12,720 Speaker 1: it down. I don't know. I heard a rumor about 303 00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:15,480 Speaker 1: a guy who did that? Maybe and the un FLA 304 00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:17,480 Speaker 1: I don't even know the UN flag. Most people wouldn't 305 00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:19,640 Speaker 1: even not recognize the year. It's like this. It's like this, 306 00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:22,760 Speaker 1: it's like a powder puff blue color. That's like we 307 00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:29,560 Speaker 1: have a flag too. Um. But anyway, So Amherst is 308 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:33,680 Speaker 1: a three square miles surrounded by reality, is what we say, 309 00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:36,760 Speaker 1: a little town up in central Massachusetts. And Clay my 310 00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:38,920 Speaker 1: alma mater, now has a COVID policy where you must 311 00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:41,280 Speaker 1: be vaccinated. Okay, you have to be vaccinated to be 312 00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:43,800 Speaker 1: a student. There no noah fans or boughts, no exceptions, 313 00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:47,800 Speaker 1: and they don't allow any more people to walk into 314 00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:51,680 Speaker 1: the town unless it is for a pharmacy run or 315 00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:55,280 Speaker 1: banking purposes. And the dining hall is closed. You have 316 00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:58,280 Speaker 1: to take the food out, and there are group restrictions. 317 00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 1: You can have more than twenty five people to get 318 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:03,080 Speaker 1: other unless you're all masked. How close is the town 319 00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:07,360 Speaker 1: a hundred yards? So they are not allowing people to 320 00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:10,520 Speaker 1: walk into the little town at all. They're like, you 321 00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:14,440 Speaker 1: were not allowed to go into town to get pizza, 322 00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:17,040 Speaker 1: to you know, go buy some comics or whatever the 323 00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:19,800 Speaker 1: kids do these days. Not allowed to do it. Sorry, 324 00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:22,080 Speaker 1: that was. That was some old timey stuff right there. Yeah, 325 00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:24,479 Speaker 1: but yeah, you know we're gonna go get their record 326 00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:29,440 Speaker 1: players in their comics. How much dumber is it going 327 00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:32,520 Speaker 1: to get? Clay before everyone has to admit the lockdowners 328 00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:35,480 Speaker 1: have lost their minds. I'm just wondering. Look, I think 329 00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:39,040 Speaker 1: a key move here. Did you have you seen Australia. 330 00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:42,720 Speaker 1: Australia has basically just come out publicly and said, hey, 331 00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:46,440 Speaker 1: we kind of blew it. COVID zero isn't a reality. 332 00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:49,280 Speaker 1: I just tweeted out the graphic. Look at all the 333 00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:52,520 Speaker 1: lockdowns that are going on there. It's crazy.

In the third hour of 355 00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:07,479 Speaker 1: this program, we are scheduled to have forty five himself, 356 00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:11,320 Speaker 1: Donald Trump on with us. Should be an interesting conversation 357 00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:14,960 Speaker 1: given all of the news that is going on. But Buck, 358 00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:20,560 Speaker 1: I don't want the failures of the teachers unions to 359 00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:25,640 Speaker 1: completely escape when it comes to I think really they 360 00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:30,359 Speaker 1: being basically the worst people on the planet as it 361 00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:34,880 Speaker 1: pertains to COVID lockdowns, which is really saying something, and 362 00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:40,000 Speaker 1: in particular, this woman Meyer Cruz who is the head 363 00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:44,520 Speaker 1: of the LA Teachers Unions have Something has one of 364 00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:47,879 Speaker 1: the most ridiculous quotes I've ever seen associated with the 365 00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:50,760 Speaker 1: COVID lockdowns and the fact that kids were out of 366 00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:55,200 Speaker 1: school in LA from March mostly all through last year. 367 00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:58,480 Speaker 1: If you're a public school kid, here's what she said 368 00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:03,840 Speaker 1: about the kids six hundred thousand, by the way, kids 369 00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:07,800 Speaker 1: in the Los Angeles area in kindergarten through twelfth grade. 370 00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:13,360 Speaker 1: Our kids didn't lose anything. It's okay that our babies 371 00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:18,440 Speaker 1: may not have learned all their times tables. They learned resilience, 372 00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:24,560 Speaker 1: they learned survival, they learned critical thinking skills. They know 373 00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:29,439 Speaker 1: the difference between a riot and a protest. They know 374 00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:35,320 Speaker 1: the words insurrection and coup. That is a quote. She 375 00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:39,960 Speaker 1: even went further and said that learning loss is a 376 00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:47,480 Speaker 1: fake crisis that is being used to manipulate people. Buck 377 00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:51,159 Speaker 1: when you hear they know the difference between a riot 378 00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:54,720 Speaker 1: and a protest, they know the words insurrection and coup. 379 00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:57,760 Speaker 1: We know the data. The data reflects that the poorest 380 00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:00,480 Speaker 1: kids and the least advantage kids were by far the 381 00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:04,439 Speaker 1: biggest losers as it pertain to education. These are likely 382 00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:08,040 Speaker 1: educational skills that they will not have for the rest 383 00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:11,440 Speaker 1: of their lives. The LA Teachers Union, if it had 384 00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:16,080 Speaker 1: any soul, if it had any basis in intelligent thought whatsoever, 385 00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:19,119 Speaker 1: would kick this woman to the curb as soon as 386 00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:23,320 Speaker 1: they saw these quotes. Completely unacceptable, and yet she represents 387 00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:28,919 Speaker 1: them perfectly. She is what the teachers unions have become, 388 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:33,919 Speaker 1: which are self serving, commie indoctrination centers. This is what 389 00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:38,359 Speaker 1: teachers unions across America have devolved into. We see this 390 00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:40,959 Speaker 1: from the fact that while there were people showing up 391 00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:45,639 Speaker 1: frontline workers all over America, teachers figured too dangerous for 392 00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:47,760 Speaker 1: us to have to be in school with kids, even 393 00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:49,959 Speaker 1: though kids, as we know, very unlikely to get it 394 00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:52,760 Speaker 1: and unlikely to spread it, at least at that time. 395 00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:55,760 Speaker 1: This is member pre delta variant, and the Delta variant 396 00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:58,240 Speaker 1: is not substantially more dangerous to kids, despite some of 397 00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:01,360 Speaker 1: the reporting on that six weeks ago. It is more transmissible, 398 00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 1: more easily transmissible among people. But when she says things 399 00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:06,639 Speaker 1: like they know the difference between the words they know 400 00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:10,280 Speaker 1: the words insurrection and coup, she's saying the quiet part 401 00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:12,679 Speaker 1: out loud. Your kids in the public school system in 402 00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:15,719 Speaker 1: Los Angeles may not be able to spell or do 403 00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:18,840 Speaker 1: their multiplication tables, but darn it, they know how to 404 00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:22,080 Speaker 1: get out there and chant whose streets are streets. They 405 00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:24,840 Speaker 1: know to put up the black square of BLM on 406 00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:28,439 Speaker 1: their Instagram accounts. They know that they're supposed to hate 407 00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:31,119 Speaker 1: people who voted for Donald Trump, even though they're too 408 00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:33,960 Speaker 1: young to vote and don't know anything about politics. Clay, 409 00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:36,919 Speaker 1: this is in LA. But this is a teacher's union 410 00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:41,080 Speaker 1: head who is speaking for the public school system writ 411 00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:45,280 Speaker 1: large across most of blue state America. This is how 412 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:48,040 Speaker 1: they think. This is how they operate. What about the 413 00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:51,000 Speaker 1: difference between a riot and a protest? You really think 414 00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:53,159 Speaker 1: that kids know the difference between a riot and a protest. 415 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:55,520 Speaker 1: I mean they may know the difference in a riot 416 00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:58,280 Speaker 1: and a protest, as pertains to CNN saying it's a 417 00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:00,760 Speaker 1: mostly peaceful protest. I think I think they have been 418 00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:03,439 Speaker 1: taught what the Democrat version of it is, which is 419 00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:07,840 Speaker 1: a protest is anything that Democrats want to call it 420 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:11,520 Speaker 1: when it involves a large group of people something, and 421 00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:14,800 Speaker 1: a riot is anything that involves somebody who says the 422 00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:18,119 Speaker 1: words patriot, freedom, or America too many times and is 423 00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:21,320 Speaker 1: not waiving a BLM flag. I think they have probably 424 00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:25,280 Speaker 1: been taught that false separation. Yeah. What's so frustrating too 425 00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:28,840 Speaker 1: about many of those comments from this LA Teachers Union 426 00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:33,280 Speaker 1: head is she specifically references the timetables. First of all, 427 00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:36,160 Speaker 1: I think it's timetables, right, not times tables you would 428 00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:37,960 Speaker 1: I may not be an expert on that, but when 429 00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:41,160 Speaker 1: I think that she miss spoke there, which you would 430 00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:43,480 Speaker 1: hope that somebody would get something basic like that, right. 431 00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:48,879 Speaker 1: But math is to me the essence of something that 432 00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:53,040 Speaker 1: should not be political and that everyone has to learn 433 00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:57,520 Speaker 1: in order to have a modicum of ability in the classroom. 434 00:23:57,640 --> 00:23:59,880 Speaker 1: But you're lucky and argue you're lucky that miss meyer 435 00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:04,160 Speaker 1: Clay isn't here to tell you how racist that is. Yeah, 436 00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:06,480 Speaker 1: I don't even know what racemiss Meyert Cruise is, to 437 00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:10,680 Speaker 1: be honest, but I will say this, if you are 438 00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:16,960 Speaker 1: arguing that these kids have not been tremendously disadvantaged and 439 00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:21,280 Speaker 1: failed by all adults, particularly the teachers Union, then you, 440 00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:26,680 Speaker 1: my friend, lack basic comprehension of data, which is probably true, 441 00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:29,520 Speaker 1: and it's reflective of the fact that you yourself did 442 00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:33,240 Speaker 1: not learn your math very well. Because all sorts of 443 00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:38,960 Speaker 1: nonpartisan entities Mackenzie Group, for example, came out with data 444 00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:43,360 Speaker 1: showing the massive amount of learning loss that occurred with 445 00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:46,159 Speaker 1: schools being shut down, and the places that had the 446 00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:49,480 Speaker 1: biggest learning loss were the kids that are the most disadvantaged. 447 00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:52,919 Speaker 1: Kids without WiFi at home, kids without parents able to 448 00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:55,320 Speaker 1: make sure that they are paying attention if there are 449 00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:59,280 Speaker 1: some remote learning instruction going on, Kids who don't have 450 00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:02,480 Speaker 1: the res horses to be able to fall further behind. 451 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:05,960 Speaker 1: And that doesn't even consider all of the lost meals. 452 00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:09,520 Speaker 1: Buck I saw the data that came out on the 453 00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:12,120 Speaker 1: flip side when we told the kids to go stay 454 00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:14,520 Speaker 1: home and we shut down playgrounds, and we took rims 455 00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:18,320 Speaker 1: off of the basketball hoops, and we took down tennis nets, 456 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:21,199 Speaker 1: and we filled in skate parks. Do you know what 457 00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:25,680 Speaker 1: happened for kids ages five to eleven? The obesity rate 458 00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:31,520 Speaker 1: in this country skyrocketed. The most important thing anybody out 459 00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:35,320 Speaker 1: there can do for their health as it pertains to 460 00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:38,960 Speaker 1: being in as good of shape as possible, is lose 461 00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:43,239 Speaker 1: weight and eat healthy. That's something you can control. And 462 00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:45,880 Speaker 1: yet the obesity rate in this country for kids age 463 00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:50,199 Speaker 1: five to eleven skyrocketed. Overall weight gain for Americans of 464 00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:53,080 Speaker 1: all different stripes skyrocketed as well because we gave the 465 00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:56,399 Speaker 1: worst possible advice. We should have mandated gym memberships instead 466 00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:58,360 Speaker 1: of masks. It's hard even for adults. And I can 467 00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:00,560 Speaker 1: tell you as I put on the COVID fifteen, I'm 468 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:04,119 Speaker 1: down like five of it. I think maybe, But you know, 469 00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:07,720 Speaker 1: so you're just scarfing down that hamburger. Hey, you settled down. 470 00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:11,239 Speaker 1: That was in a commercial break. That's sacred. But you know, 471 00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:13,760 Speaker 1: I gotta say, man, you know, if you're gonna tell 472 00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:16,480 Speaker 1: kids that they have to stay home, all right, they 473 00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:18,800 Speaker 1: have to stay home and they can't exercise, they can't 474 00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:20,959 Speaker 1: get out there. Of course they are going to be 475 00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:23,520 Speaker 1: health implications for them. Of course they're going to be 476 00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:26,680 Speaker 1: things like that that that come up. And yet the 477 00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:29,200 Speaker 1: idea that this woman, going back to what she says 478 00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:32,760 Speaker 1: about learning loss, she goes this is from the article 479 00:26:32,840 --> 00:26:36,280 Speaker 1: Clay from the Los Angeles Times magazine article quote. She 480 00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:40,280 Speaker 1: went so far as to suggest darkly that learning loss 481 00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:47,320 Speaker 1: is a fake crisis marketed by shadowy purveyors of classroom assessment, 482 00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:52,000 Speaker 1: i e. They they want to pretend that kids who 483 00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:54,639 Speaker 1: did not show up for ZOOM at all, which was 484 00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:58,960 Speaker 1: a huge issue across the country, or we're sitting there 485 00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:02,520 Speaker 1: with zoom and have no interaction with adults, no interaction 486 00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:05,760 Speaker 1: with their peers, that they didn't actually do work. By 487 00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:07,760 Speaker 1: the way, the testing already shows that what she's saying 488 00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:10,920 Speaker 1: is a lie. But see, this is the Democrat power apparatus. 489 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:15,800 Speaker 1: That's what the teachers unions are really all about, jobs 490 00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:20,080 Speaker 1: programs for adults and pushing commy ideology as far as 491 00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:23,639 Speaker 1: they possibly can across the country. Democrat parties all in 492 00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:25,880 Speaker 1: on it, so they lie about. I mean, what could 493 00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:29,440 Speaker 1: be more important than to know whether or not this 494 00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:34,800 Speaker 1: experiment in distance learning was a disaster, which it was, 495 00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:38,760 Speaker 1: And maybe she doesn't know her timestables well enough to 496 00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:41,879 Speaker 1: be able to look at the data and actually see 497 00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:44,480 Speaker 1: how much she failed all of the kids she ostensibly 498 00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:46,080 Speaker 1: is trying to help it. Let it be known, you 499 00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:50,760 Speaker 1: mess up your singular and your plural and professor timetables 500 00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:55,000 Speaker 1: professor time table. I haven't looked at a timetable since 501 00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:58,119 Speaker 1: people were listening to VHS cassettes or whatever. We had 502 00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:01,080 Speaker 1: a little tape. So you've been a long time, all right, 503 00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:03,440 Speaker 1: we'll come back. We got some calls lines late eight 504 00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:06,439 Speaker 1: hundred two A two eight A two and I'm going 505 00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:09,120 Speaker 1: to go to the gym today after Clay's burger shaming incident. 506 00:28:09,560 --> 00:28:12,520 Speaker 1: Very much. I've just said no bun on the burger, sir. 507 00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:14,720 Speaker 1: How about that took care of it. There we go. 508 00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:18,760 Speaker 1: We talked about our friend Coms parents in yesterday and 509 00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:20,920 Speaker 1: he was booted off Twitter for sharing his fact based 510 00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:24,080 Speaker 1: reporting on COVID nineteen. Everyone should have the right to 511 00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:27,560 Speaker 1: express themselves freely. The big tech monopoly has opted for 512 00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:31,120 Speaker 1: silencing tactics and censorship. To fight back against big tech 513 00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:34,879 Speaker 1: control of the Internet. I use Express VPN and encourage 514 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:37,120 Speaker 1: you to do the same.

That makes it more difficult 518 00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:50,320 Speaker 1: to sell and trace all your stuff for advertisers. That's 519 00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:52,280 Speaker 1: how the tech giants make their money, Clay. They track 520 00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:55,200 Speaker 1: your searches, your video history, everything you click on. Then 521 00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:57,880 Speaker 1: they sell your sensitive data. I say, we tell everybody, hey, 522 00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:02,280 Speaker 1: let's shut that down, no doubt.

Welcome. Are you doing. Are 545 00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:29,720 Speaker 1: you doing a gentleman? Good? Excellent good. I just wanted 546 00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:33,280 Speaker 1: to say, my wife is a teacher here in southern California, 547 00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:37,080 Speaker 1: in the La County area, actually, and she's told me 548 00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:39,480 Speaker 1: that these kids have not only lost a year, they've 549 00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:42,760 Speaker 1: actually lost two years. It's sparely for the youngest she's 550 00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:47,240 Speaker 1: teaching right now, second and third grade. And most of 551 00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:49,880 Speaker 1: the second graders when they went to school in kindergarten, 552 00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:54,680 Speaker 1: they've completely forgotten that. Yea, now they missed first grade. 553 00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:59,600 Speaker 1: And most of them don't have terence who either their 554 00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:02,240 Speaker 1: work or whatever trying to provide or they just don't 555 00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:04,840 Speaker 1: have the incentive in the knowledge to be able to 556 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:06,720 Speaker 1: teach their kids. So their kids are coming to school. 557 00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:10,400 Speaker 1: They don't even know their basic colors. They can't even 558 00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:14,320 Speaker 1: give you the colors, they can't even recite their ABC. 559 00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:17,160 Speaker 1: Your wife is a second grade teacher, you said in 560 00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:19,360 Speaker 1: the LA area. I mean I can't even imagine. I mean, 561 00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:21,440 Speaker 1: for teachers that really thank you for the call, for 562 00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:25,120 Speaker 1: teachers that really care buck and see the importance of 563 00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:28,840 Speaker 1: their job. This is I think of all the failures 564 00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:33,160 Speaker 1: associated with COVID shutting down schools in March of twenty 565 00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:36,720 Speaker 1: twenty and then many of them staying closed all the 566 00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:41,840 Speaker 1: way through the twenty twenty one spring is the most 567 00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:46,640 Speaker 1: intractable failure of this entire process, and the kids who 568 00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:49,360 Speaker 1: could least afford to bear the brunt of this cost 569 00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:51,440 Speaker 1: had to bear it. This is yet another moment where 570 00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:54,360 Speaker 1: the ideology of the left of the Democrat Party. While 571 00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:56,400 Speaker 1: they always talk a big game about how much they 572 00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:58,720 Speaker 1: care about minorities, Clay, how much they want to help 573 00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:02,520 Speaker 1: the underprivileged or those who are oppressed or you know, 574 00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:06,080 Speaker 1: low income, whatever it may be, but then they enact 575 00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:11,680 Speaker 1: policies that disproportionately heard out those groups. You're exactly true 576 00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:15,680 Speaker 1: on the crime issue with BLM riots and protests. True 577 00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:18,040 Speaker 1: on the school issue where they say, oh, we're keeping 578 00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:21,480 Speaker 1: the kids and the teachers safe. Bull crap. We all 579 00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:26,080 Speaker 1: know it's not true. Katie. In a Coasta Mesa call, 580 00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:32,040 Speaker 1: the California folks are fired up about the California lady. Yes, yeah, Katie, 581 00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:35,360 Speaker 1: what's up? Yes, Hello, boys, how are you today? We're good? 582 00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:38,600 Speaker 1: Thank you good Mega dittos. Because I listened to rush 583 00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:41,640 Speaker 1: for years, so I have to say it's um. I 584 00:32:41,720 --> 00:32:45,320 Speaker 1: am a fired up mama bear. I have been a 585 00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:49,840 Speaker 1: pharmaceutical representative for nineteen years and I in my life 586 00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:54,160 Speaker 1: have never sold a medication or represented one to help 587 00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:58,080 Speaker 1: people that hasn't been fully FBA approved with an adult indication. 588 00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:03,360 Speaker 1: And the side effect profile of this alleged PI and 589 00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:07,200 Speaker 1: this bioin tech medication, I encourage everyone to go read 590 00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:09,760 Speaker 1: it online. There is a lot of stuff missing that 591 00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:12,200 Speaker 1: I speak with doctors on the occasion over the last 592 00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:16,760 Speaker 1: nineteen years, and there is there's no data on how 593 00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:20,479 Speaker 1: it's excreted in the human body, the pharmer codynamics of 594 00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:23,120 Speaker 1: it's a bioavailability. These are all things that we need 595 00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:25,720 Speaker 1: to know so we can make informed consent. And I 596 00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:31,040 Speaker 1: have a very big problem with any medication that is 597 00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:33,920 Speaker 1: tested on people with the adverse events that you keep 598 00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:36,080 Speaker 1: hearing about. People can go to the very system then 599 00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:39,440 Speaker 1: look themselves. It's there. There have been reports on it, 600 00:33:39,600 --> 00:33:41,760 Speaker 1: and I often hear people say, oh, I got shingles 601 00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:44,320 Speaker 1: after it or something. It doesn't matter what you get 602 00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:46,920 Speaker 1: after the vaccine. It needs to be reported whether or 603 00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:49,680 Speaker 1: not it's caused by this medication or not. I am 604 00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:52,320 Speaker 1: instructed to do that with my job when anything happens. 605 00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:55,080 Speaker 1: And I'll tell you what. This going after children and 606 00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:57,800 Speaker 1: putting them in in an experimental age before the adult 607 00:33:57,800 --> 00:34:02,160 Speaker 1: indication has been out hoy approved for a while should 608 00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:05,120 Speaker 1: scare everybody because you real quick, Katie, Katie, you mentioned 609 00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:07,080 Speaker 1: the their system for everyone listening to. So that's the 610 00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:12,480 Speaker 1: Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System vae RS, and it's where 611 00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:15,680 Speaker 1: anything bad, right Katie, it happens for a vaccine supposed 612 00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:19,560 Speaker 1: to be reported into the whole system. Basically, anything anything 613 00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:23,000 Speaker 1: happens to you after you get this, whatever happens to you, 614 00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:25,600 Speaker 1: it does not matter. Those get reported. When I talk 615 00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:29,480 Speaker 1: about adverse events with my practitioners, it doesn't matter what 616 00:34:29,719 --> 00:34:32,399 Speaker 1: happened to that person during that study. It is put 617 00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:35,320 Speaker 1: in there as an adverse event. Even if it's nasal 618 00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:39,320 Speaker 1: pharyngitis or something like that. It gets put into the system. 619 00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:41,440 Speaker 1: And these people are don't have a reporting port. To 620 00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:43,080 Speaker 1: believe me, I hear it out in the field all 621 00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:46,840 Speaker 1: the time. Oh this happened to me. This should scare everybody. 622 00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:49,120 Speaker 1: And I'll tell you what. I am not an anti vactor. 623 00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:51,200 Speaker 1: My children and I have have all of our vaccines. 624 00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:53,399 Speaker 1: We've got the flu shot, last year. But I tell 625 00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:55,719 Speaker 1: you what, I am not going to get this. My 626 00:34:55,840 --> 00:34:58,160 Speaker 1: children will not get this, my husband is not going 627 00:34:58,239 --> 00:35:01,160 Speaker 1: to get this because they're is not enough for me 628 00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:05,360 Speaker 1: to make an informed decision and consent to put that 629 00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:08,359 Speaker 1: in my body until I know after nineteen years of 630 00:35:08,400 --> 00:35:12,640 Speaker 1: doing this. People should realize that this is not on. 631 00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:15,600 Speaker 1: This is not being rolled out the correct way, And 632 00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:20,120 Speaker 1: we appreciate it. Fired up Grizzly Mama bear here, we 633 00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:23,959 Speaker 1: like appreciated article. Did you see it in the La Times? Buck, 634 00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:27,680 Speaker 1: I've been talking about the mom revolution. If Gavin Knewsome loses, 635 00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:30,319 Speaker 1: it's going to be because of moms like Katie out 636 00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:32,959 Speaker 1: there that are fed up all over California. And look, 637 00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:36,600 Speaker 1: the problem with the kids being required to get the vaccine, 638 00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:38,600 Speaker 1: as we spend a lot of time talking about yesterday, 639 00:35:38,680 --> 00:35:42,600 Speaker 1: is the kids have no statistical danger at all from COVID, 640 00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:46,440 Speaker 1: So getting somebody a vaccine for something that provides no 641 00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:49,920 Speaker 1: danger to them does not make sense. Right. This is 642 00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:53,400 Speaker 1: for over anxious adults. Yes, this is for over anxious 643 00:35:53,400 --> 00:35:56,839 Speaker 1: adults pretending that they're protecting kids. Primarily, that's what this is. 644 00:35:56,960 --> 00:35:59,200 Speaker 1: The people for whom there's never enough protection for them. 645 00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:02,120 Speaker 1: As adults want to keep jabbing your kids over and 646 00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:04,239 Speaker 1: over and over again with this shot. That's what it is. 647 00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:07,719 Speaker 1: It's crazy, it's insanity. Donald Trump gonna join us in 648 00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:10,720 Speaker 1: the third hour of the program. Guess what Joe Biden 649 00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:12,480 Speaker 1: push back has talked. Does that surprise you get all 650 00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:14,480 Speaker 1: bump first time they got.
