1 00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:15,560 Speaker 1: You are entering the freedom hunt. More details coming out 2 00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:19,880 Speaker 1: about the horrific shootings in El Paso, Texas and Dayton, Ohio. 3 00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:22,639 Speaker 1: We'll talk about what we know now and how the 4 00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:27,400 Speaker 1: media is covering this. Also, the Democrat candidates continue their 5 00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:30,440 Speaker 1: onslaught against Trump. We'll get into that and more coming 6 00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:33,800 Speaker 1: up on The Buck Sexton Show. This is the Buck 7 00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:37,199 Speaker 1: Sexton Show where the mission or mission is to decode 8 00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:43,400 Speaker 1: what really matters with actionable intelligence. Make no mistake America, 9 00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:52,560 Speaker 1: You're a great American. Again. The Buck Sexton Show begins. 10 00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:59,560 Speaker 1: What happened this weekend or acts of pure evil? And 11 00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:02,720 Speaker 1: we press our deepest condolences to the families of those 12 00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:06,880 Speaker 1: who lost their lives, and we join every American praying 13 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:11,840 Speaker 1: for the injured and their families in their hour of need. 14 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:18,800 Speaker 1: Hate has no place in America, and the sinister ideologies 15 00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:25,440 Speaker 1: of racism, bigotry, and white supremacy must be defeated. Justice 16 00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:29,000 Speaker 1: will be swift and certain. We're developing legislation to ensure 17 00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:34,559 Speaker 1: that those who commit mass murders face the death penalty swiftly. 18 00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 1: The American people can be assured we will confront this 19 00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:41,840 Speaker 1: evil in our time. We will work together to advance 20 00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:45,640 Speaker 1: policies that make our families and our nations safer while 21 00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:51,240 Speaker 1: protecting the constitutional rights of every American. Welcome to the 22 00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 1: Bucks Accident Show. We will confront this evil. Vice President 23 00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:58,920 Speaker 1: Penn says, for that is what we were up against. 24 00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:06,720 Speaker 1: It is evil. That is the most clear, the most precise, 25 00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:12,320 Speaker 1: the most straightforward description of this that anybody could ever 26 00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:20,200 Speaker 1: come up with. The administration understands the pain, they understand 27 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 1: the loss. They understand that people want action, and they're 28 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:32,840 Speaker 1: willing to consider whatever is sensible, whatever is prudent, in 29 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:36,440 Speaker 1: order to try and prevent the next tragedy. What do 30 00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:41,440 Speaker 1: we see though, a coming together of Democrats and Republicans. 31 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:44,880 Speaker 1: Are elected leaders deciding to put aside their political differences, 32 00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:49,160 Speaker 1: even for a few days, maybe a week, to allow 33 00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:54,760 Speaker 1: for some unpoliticized grieving, perhaps a bit of unity among 34 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:57,960 Speaker 1: Americans who reach out from their hearts and yes offer 35 00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:00,920 Speaker 1: their hearts and prayers, their thoughts and prayers to the 36 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 1: people of El Paso and Date in Ohio. We come 37 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 1: together in moments like this because we do care about 38 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:15,239 Speaker 1: each other, because we are good people, because the American 39 00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:20,240 Speaker 1: people care about one another. And yet, what are we 40 00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:24,359 Speaker 1: up against in the new cycle, the most horrific, insane, 41 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:29,000 Speaker 1: unfair things being said about the president day in and 42 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:31,920 Speaker 1: day out by people who not only should know better, 43 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 1: I believe they know better. They're just trying to capitalize 44 00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 1: on this moment. They are playing to the rage of 45 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:44,360 Speaker 1: the mob against this president. And as they do so, 46 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:48,160 Speaker 1: they claim to be concerned about the way we talk 47 00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 1: to each other in discourse, about politics, about issues that 48 00:03:53,880 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 1: have sensitivities, and it's just stunning. It's just wrong what 49 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 1: they're doing. It's unfair. It's unfair to the rest of America. 50 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 1: It's unfair to a country that should be allowed some 51 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:15,800 Speaker 1: space to process. Instead, what we have are just the 52 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:21,839 Speaker 1: worst venal demagogues imaginable, running around saying all kinds of 53 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:24,559 Speaker 1: crazy things about the president. If what they say about 54 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,839 Speaker 1: this president is true, what are people of good faith 55 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 1: and goodwill supposed to do in this country? What could 56 00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 1: be more reckless than saying you believe the president is 57 00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 1: a white supremacist. This is now mainstream among Democrats, and 58 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 1: in terms of the media, we've already seen with the 59 00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:50,719 Speaker 1: New York Times changing its headline from a straightforward this 60 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:53,160 Speaker 1: is what Trump said in his speech to Well he 61 00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 1: said something, but he didn't condemn guns because the New 62 00:04:56,120 --> 00:05:00,599 Speaker 1: York Times readership was complaining about it. Because liberals in 63 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 1: this country have been feeding each other a steady diet 64 00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:06,560 Speaker 1: of anti Trump hatred for years now, and they can't 65 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 1: accept anything else. They don't know anything else. They become 66 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 1: a hostile to the notion that Trump is not as 67 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:17,360 Speaker 1: evil as they have told each other and now they 68 00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:25,839 Speaker 1: themselves usually believe. Then we also see a disparity emerging. 69 00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:33,680 Speaker 1: A tremendous amount of focus on the El Paso shooter, 70 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:40,400 Speaker 1: on his manifesto, on the political motivations behind this, and 71 00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:50,720 Speaker 1: so little attention seemingly paid to the horrific shooting in Dayton, Ohio. 72 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:53,640 Speaker 1: Never mind also the shootings that occurred in Chicago over 73 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:57,960 Speaker 1: the weekend, which killed I think six or seven wounded dozens. 74 00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:01,560 Speaker 1: That's a far less political utility to Democrats, so we 75 00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:04,920 Speaker 1: hear much less about it. And yet those people, those 76 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:09,359 Speaker 1: innocence gunned down every bit as dead as anybody in 77 00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:15,520 Speaker 1: El Paso or Dayton, Lives taken away, families crushed. See, 78 00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:17,920 Speaker 1: it's all about the narrative for the Democrats and their allies, 79 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:21,479 Speaker 1: the mainstream media, and that's why Dayton, Ohio seems of 80 00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 1: less interest to them. They don't want to talk about 81 00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:30,360 Speaker 1: that one as much. They don't want to talk about 82 00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:32,880 Speaker 1: that shooter as much, that's for sure. Why is that? 83 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,760 Speaker 1: You might wonder, well, because when you look at his 84 00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:40,479 Speaker 1: social media presence, and we'll have more information about this 85 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:44,359 Speaker 1: in the days ahead, there's certainly plenty of preliminary reason 86 00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:51,279 Speaker 1: to believe that he was a leftist. He was a 87 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 1: Satanist who supported Elizabeth Warren, who supported Bernie Sanders, He 88 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:03,320 Speaker 1: was pro anti he hated police officers. Does that sound 89 00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:08,600 Speaker 1: like someone that's responding to Trump's rhetoric to you. I'm 90 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 1: not saying it's impossible. We don't yet entirely know what 91 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:14,880 Speaker 1: the situation is. But they were willing, the media was 92 00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 1: willing to draw very fast conclusions about everything in and 93 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 1: I understand a manifesto does make it hard to miss 94 00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:26,559 Speaker 1: what a person is trying to do, to miss their intent, 95 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,160 Speaker 1: although I do think that these manifestos are also being 96 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 1: left behind as an ad on to make us tear 97 00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 1: each other apart. They leave this behind, it's like lighting 98 00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:41,000 Speaker 1: a fire as they walk out the door, knowing that 99 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:43,239 Speaker 1: it will burn the house down long after they're gone 100 00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:46,320 Speaker 1: because we point fingers at each other and say, see, 101 00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 1: it's your side. No, it's my side, No, it's your side. 102 00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:55,880 Speaker 1: I'm old enough to remember when there were Democrats under 103 00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:58,960 Speaker 1: the Obama administration, when we had a number of mass 104 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:04,480 Speaker 1: casualty shootings that tributable to ISIS inspired attackers, and you 105 00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 1: had the Pulse nightclub shooter saying that he's doing this 106 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,920 Speaker 1: for ISIS and he's doing this for Allah, and the 107 00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:19,360 Speaker 1: FBI thought why not exercise that from the transcripts, and 108 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 1: the media went along with this, like, Yeah, that seems normal, 109 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 1: that seems like that makes sense. So I'd really rather 110 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:27,640 Speaker 1: not have to pretend that we don't know. There are 111 00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:30,880 Speaker 1: political agendas at work here with the way the mainstream 112 00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:35,439 Speaker 1: media reports on tragedies and the way that Democrats frame 113 00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:43,000 Speaker 1: them politically. As an individual in Dayton, yes tremendous red flags. 114 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:46,840 Speaker 1: There's interviews being published with an ex girlfriend of his 115 00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:51,080 Speaker 1: who said that he showed her video of the Pittsburgh 116 00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:53,720 Speaker 1: shooting massacre and that he clearly had a fascination for this. 117 00:08:53,800 --> 00:09:00,240 Speaker 1: He was obviously mentally ill, and no one stopped him. 118 00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:02,439 Speaker 1: He had a kill list on a bus, no one 119 00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:04,720 Speaker 1: stopped and that he was taken off by police, no 120 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:08,960 Speaker 1: one stopped him, makes you wonder what really has to 121 00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:11,760 Speaker 1: happen for us to finally reach that point where someone 122 00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:16,800 Speaker 1: will take action on this one. But the separation between 123 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 1: these two shootings that as purely a result of politics, 124 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:24,880 Speaker 1: just goes to show us all that even in the 125 00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:28,800 Speaker 1: most the most tragic and sad moments that this country faces, 126 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:32,360 Speaker 1: there are people who would rather stick their thumb in 127 00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:34,920 Speaker 1: the eyes of an opponent who has nothing to do 128 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:38,240 Speaker 1: with this, in this case Donald Trump, then take the 129 00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 1: opportunity to try to make things better, to come up 130 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:46,400 Speaker 1: with real ideas or real solutions, and work as Americans 131 00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:48,440 Speaker 1: to stop the next mass shooting. They just they don't 132 00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:50,480 Speaker 1: have any interest in that. They want to They want 133 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:54,319 Speaker 1: to demonize people like former colleagues of mine who are 134 00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:57,360 Speaker 1: advocates for the Second Amendment. They want to humiliate people 135 00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:00,640 Speaker 1: who think that they should be allowed to enjoy Second 136 00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:04,560 Speaker 1: Amendment rights. It's about other rising people that believe the 137 00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:09,079 Speaker 1: constitutional right to defend one's self and the check against 138 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:12,720 Speaker 1: tyranny the Second Amendment gives us all is some kind 139 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:17,240 Speaker 1: of anachronistic joke. They want to make fun of us. 140 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,000 Speaker 1: There's nothing funny about anything that's gone on this week. 141 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:22,960 Speaker 1: But Democrats seem to think that we're funny because we 142 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:26,679 Speaker 1: take the right to bear arms seriously, and they think 143 00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:28,679 Speaker 1: we're evil. Of course, at the same time, I mean, 144 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 1: they mock us, and then they think that we're bad people. 145 00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:35,360 Speaker 1: This is what we were up against. Oh, and people 146 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:39,559 Speaker 1: like Corey Booker running around trying to sound tough, trying 147 00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:42,679 Speaker 1: to just make some headway in a very crowded Democrat field. 148 00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 1: I mean, here's here's I Am Spartacus himself joking about 149 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:49,640 Speaker 1: what he wants to do to the President of the 150 00:10:49,679 --> 00:11:06,080 Speaker 1: United States, Play nine angry, what's important? And so I've 151 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:24,959 Speaker 1: definitely if making jokes about, yeah, some guy wants to 152 00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:27,160 Speaker 1: punch Donald Trump in the face. Yeah, this is what 153 00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:29,800 Speaker 1: we This is the Democratic Party that pretends to be 154 00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 1: the serious part of the party that wants to end violence, 155 00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:35,880 Speaker 1: it wants to make things better. I haven't heard us 156 00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:40,960 Speaker 1: a a single takeaway from Democrats that would do anything. 157 00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:42,520 Speaker 1: First of all, it's none of it is new. We've 158 00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:45,280 Speaker 1: been through this all before and I have not heard 159 00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:47,920 Speaker 1: one thing from them that I thought, Wow, that's that's 160 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:52,560 Speaker 1: a real effort to reach out across political boundaries, to 161 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:55,840 Speaker 1: reach across the no man's land that separates Democrats and 162 00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:59,000 Speaker 1: Republicans these days on any major policy issue and say 163 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:02,360 Speaker 1: let's try this, let's work together on this. No, Instead, 164 00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:08,240 Speaker 1: you have prominent, prominent on air talent at places like 165 00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:12,920 Speaker 1: CNN and MSNBC saying that the president is a white nationalist, 166 00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:15,400 Speaker 1: the white supremacist, that he has blood on his hands 167 00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:19,720 Speaker 1: because of this.

You had a guy at his own 171 00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:31,480 Speaker 1: show at CNN until pretty recently and was held up there, 172 00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:35,120 Speaker 1: Reza Oslad held up as some kind of international expert 173 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:37,520 Speaker 1: on terrorism and radicalization. The guys are the guys are 174 00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:44,600 Speaker 1: awful person so start with that. And he's cursing at 175 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:48,480 Speaker 1: the President's daughter on Twitter, openly saying horrible things to 176 00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:51,400 Speaker 1: her and her whole family and directed it at her 177 00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 1: whole family as well. I mean, the left is just 178 00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:58,280 Speaker 1: full of these these lunatics, these maniacs who think that, oh, 179 00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:00,839 Speaker 1: there's been a mass shooting, Now is my opportunity to 180 00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:03,440 Speaker 1: unleash all the bile. I have stored up all the 181 00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:07,040 Speaker 1: darkness in my soul. I'm just going to fling it 182 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:09,880 Speaker 1: at every prominent Republican that I disagree with about the 183 00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:13,920 Speaker 1: tax rate and healthcare. They need to get a grip, 184 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:17,719 Speaker 1: they need to get a handle on things. Neil de 185 00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:20,640 Speaker 1: grass Tyson put out a list in trying to calm 186 00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:23,400 Speaker 1: people down, a list of how many people die in 187 00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:25,720 Speaker 1: this country a day from different things, to show that, 188 00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:30,920 Speaker 1: you know, really, in the grand scheme of things, gun 189 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:36,040 Speaker 1: violence is actually a very small slice of the mortality 190 00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:39,840 Speaker 1: problem in this country. It's I mean, for example, medical 191 00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:45,440 Speaker 1: errors is meant orders of magnitude larger daily medical errors. Obviously, 192 00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 1: cancer and heart disease accidents. Many more people die from 193 00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:52,280 Speaker 1: accidents every day than die from gun violence. Now this 194 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:53,880 Speaker 1: is not to say that gun violence is not a problem. 195 00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:58,280 Speaker 1: Clearly is. But he was trying to contextualize it, and 196 00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:00,719 Speaker 1: oh my gosh, she's a liberal. Oh my gosh, they 197 00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:06,359 Speaker 1: completely turned on him, freaked out. Can't have a conversation, 198 00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 1: can't be rational about this, just have to play into 199 00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:20,000 Speaker 1: the moment of politicized anti Trump frenzy. It's appalling, But 200 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:22,120 Speaker 1: let's wade through some of this together, my friends, let's 201 00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:24,280 Speaker 1: look at the latest data and information. We'll talk about 202 00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:29,280 Speaker 1: whatever are being put forward as possible. I shouldn't even 203 00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 1: say solutions as approaches, as ways forward in the aftermath 204 00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:36,600 Speaker 1: of a tragedy like this. Well discuss that together and 205 00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:38,600 Speaker 1: much more coming up here on the buck Sex and Show. 206 00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:40,600 Speaker 1: Stay with me if you wait. The president he talks 207 00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:43,240 Speaker 1: if he were a principal in your high school, and 208 00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:45,880 Speaker 1: they talk that way, they talk to have the people, 209 00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:49,160 Speaker 1: the parents should be coming insane fire him. It's outrageous 210 00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:52,200 Speaker 1: the way in which we characterizes people. It's the thing 211 00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:55,320 Speaker 1: that brings all the hatred out in the open. They 212 00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 1: think it's legitimate now to come out and do the 213 00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:01,520 Speaker 1: things they do and talk about. It's about white nationalism 214 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:07,000 Speaker 1: and white supremacy against minorities. There you have the top 215 00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:09,640 Speaker 1: Democrat contender saying Trump is a white nationalists. I mean 216 00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:12,840 Speaker 1: they the slander will not stop. They will not stop. 217 00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:17,000 Speaker 1: But they want to make things better in this country. 218 00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:18,880 Speaker 1: That's what Democrats want you to believe. They would like 219 00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 1: the temperature to come down. They just wish that Trump 220 00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:23,400 Speaker 1: would be a little more civil and then and then 221 00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:26,800 Speaker 1: perhaps they would beat him halfway at least that's the ruse, 222 00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:34,200 Speaker 1: that's the Cohn. Joaquin Castro. You know he is right, 223 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:40,560 Speaker 1: he's running for president. He tweeted this out today, sad 224 00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:44,840 Speaker 1: to see so many san Antonians as twenty nineteen maximum 225 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:48,200 Speaker 1: donors to Donald Trump. The owner of a he names 226 00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:50,720 Speaker 1: the barbecue, the owner of he names a restaurant, He 227 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:53,600 Speaker 1: names a realtor by name, and then he writes their 228 00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:57,840 Speaker 1: contributions are fueling a campaign of hate that labels Hispanic 229 00:15:57,840 --> 00:16:01,200 Speaker 1: immigrants as invaders. And then there's a list of forty 230 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:05,760 Speaker 1: four San Antonio donors who contributed the most you can 231 00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:10,320 Speaker 1: under federal law to Donald Trump's presidential campaign. Folks, this 232 00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:14,880 Speaker 1: is essentially a target list for social shaming, if nothing else. 233 00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:18,040 Speaker 1: This is why Democrats there's such snide little liars about this. 234 00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:20,840 Speaker 1: We just want transparency, to get the money out of politics. No, 235 00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:26,560 Speaker 1: because they're they're the little hysterical jerks that like to 236 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:30,000 Speaker 1: do these name and shame campaigns. They're the ones that 237 00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:33,400 Speaker 1: want to present all the different donors for you name it, 238 00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:37,720 Speaker 1: a conservative think tank, a Republican candidate, anything, and then 239 00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:40,600 Speaker 1: they want to organize boycott's and harassment campaigns. They want 240 00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:42,160 Speaker 1: to show ab outside your house like they do to 241 00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:47,120 Speaker 1: Mitch McConnell, which we'll talk about later on today. What 242 00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:50,720 Speaker 1: happens if somebody on this list gets attacked? What happens 243 00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:52,600 Speaker 1: if somebody on this list has their home broken into, 244 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:57,400 Speaker 1: burned down, their business destroyed. Do you think that Joaquin 245 00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:01,040 Speaker 1: Castro is gonna feel bad for saying that they're funding hate? 246 00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:06,320 Speaker 1: Do you think walking Castro, who's an elected official, is 247 00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:12,320 Speaker 1: going to have a moment's a moment's remorse for essentially 248 00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:14,680 Speaker 1: doxing I mean, I know this is public information, but 249 00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:17,320 Speaker 1: he's compiling it and he's contextualizing in a way that 250 00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:19,320 Speaker 1: he's saying, Hey, these are the enemy, folks, These people 251 00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:22,560 Speaker 1: are the enemy. Go get him. That's what this is. 252 00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:28,480 Speaker 1: Trying to hurt their businesses, hurt their reputations. I keep 253 00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:30,639 Speaker 1: saying it because you must remember this is who we 254 00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:34,440 Speaker 1: are up against. I would never advocate for this, And 255 00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:38,359 Speaker 1: notice of Republicans don't do this. This is on their side. 256 00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:46,080 Speaker 1: They feel just fine ruining you, destroying your business, putting 257 00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:48,680 Speaker 1: you in a dangerous position, so your family is threatened 258 00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:52,120 Speaker 1: because of who you donate to or support politically. They 259 00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:55,000 Speaker 1: feel completely justified because, after all, they say you're supporting 260 00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:57,600 Speaker 1: a white supremacist, So why shouldn't they feel that way 261 00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:03,400 Speaker 1: in their minds? You're getting you deserve, And they have 262 00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:11,119 Speaker 1: the brazenness to tell us that they want to have 263 00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:19,160 Speaker 1: more civil conversations. They are appalling the Democratic Party has 264 00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:25,840 Speaker 1: collectively abandoned honor and decency, and they want to lecture 265 00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:30,399 Speaker 1: us on the same. I'm sorry, not today, not on 266 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:32,879 Speaker 1: my watch, and I'm damn sure it's not going to 267 00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:36,480 Speaker 1: happen on my show. We've got more the presidents, the 268 00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:39,639 Speaker 1: president of all the people, and what he wants to 269 00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:45,280 Speaker 1: do is go to these communities and grieve with them, 270 00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:51,560 Speaker 1: pray with them, offer condolences, and quite frankly, offer thank 271 00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:54,879 Speaker 1: you an appreciation to those who are first responders and 272 00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:56,439 Speaker 1: put their lives on the line, and we're able to 273 00:18:56,440 --> 00:18:59,680 Speaker 1: take out this shooter so quickly, those American citizens who 274 00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:04,040 Speaker 1: put their bodies in harm's way to protect their loved ones. 275 00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:08,840 Speaker 1: And he also wants to talk about potential solutions and 276 00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:13,680 Speaker 1: how we keep this from ever happening again. That all 277 00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:16,200 Speaker 1: seems completely reasonable, doesn't it. That was the White House 278 00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:19,919 Speaker 1: Deputy Press Secretary of Hogan Gidley saying, Look, the President 279 00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:22,320 Speaker 1: wants to go and do the following things with his visits, 280 00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:27,000 Speaker 1: his plan visits tomorrow to Ohio and Texas. He's going 281 00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:31,120 Speaker 1: to Dayton and El Paso. And there are people out 282 00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:35,520 Speaker 1: there who are saying that he is not welcome. Now, 283 00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:37,880 Speaker 1: citizens have a right to say that whatever they want 284 00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:40,320 Speaker 1: in terms of the president being welcome or not, that's fine. 285 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:44,719 Speaker 1: There are politicians, however, there are leaders who are saying, no, 286 00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:47,880 Speaker 1: we don't want the president here. Sorry, that whole not 287 00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:51,560 Speaker 1: my president thing doesn't fly. It's not true. He is 288 00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:57,639 Speaker 1: for anyone living in America your president. You can pretend 289 00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:00,520 Speaker 1: he's not, but that does not change the reality. And 290 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:04,640 Speaker 1: after a tragedy like or a double tragedy like what 291 00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:10,680 Speaker 1: this country has just suffered, that any mayor or anybody 292 00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:14,840 Speaker 1: at all in local government would say that the president 293 00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:17,080 Speaker 1: of the United States is not welcome to come and 294 00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:23,040 Speaker 1: do what he can to promote healing, to promote unity 295 00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:27,080 Speaker 1: is just indicative of Trump's arrangement syndrome. That's what this is. 296 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:32,360 Speaker 1: Someone like Tim Ryan who does look like he's constantly 297 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:35,000 Speaker 1: in a state of surprise and and like like a 298 00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:38,080 Speaker 1: he's got flop sweat going on. Oh gosh, what's going on? 299 00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:41,200 Speaker 1: You know, Tim Ryan thinks that he's going to make 300 00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:44,480 Speaker 1: his way up from zero point zero zero zero zero 301 00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:48,360 Speaker 1: zero one percent of Democratic primary voters to maybe point 302 00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:50,760 Speaker 1: zero zero zero zero two percent of them. You know, 303 00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:54,920 Speaker 1: that's the Tim Ryan plan. He's just he's cursing on TV. 304 00:20:55,200 --> 00:21:00,360 Speaker 1: This guy's a congressman from Ohio, and you know, saying 305 00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:03,719 Speaker 1: all kinds of just nasty stuff. The President is willing 306 00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:07,120 Speaker 1: to push forward initiatives that he thinks would be helpful 307 00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:10,159 Speaker 1: in trying to prevent the next tragedy. And this is 308 00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:14,160 Speaker 1: the kind of meet him halfway approach he gets from 309 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:19,280 Speaker 1: Tim Ryan. Play eighteen. It is so disingenuous for him 310 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:22,080 Speaker 1: to step up to that podium yesterday and talk about 311 00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:25,680 Speaker 1: mental illness like he cares because he has a lawsuit 312 00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:27,919 Speaker 1: and out the repeal coverage for twenty million people who 313 00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:30,239 Speaker 1: need it. So don't give me this blogny that all 314 00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:32,680 Speaker 1: of a sudden you're for mental health coverage and you're 315 00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:35,560 Speaker 1: for treating mental health in the United States. I don't 316 00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:41,040 Speaker 1: believe you, Donald Trump. I don't believe you Belogney. Huh. 317 00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:43,120 Speaker 1: I mean, no one should really care what Tim Ryan thinks, 318 00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:45,080 Speaker 1: except for the voters of Ohio. Who pulled the lever 319 00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:47,480 Speaker 1: for this guy? What the heck are you folks doing. 320 00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:51,359 Speaker 1: I don't care who the other candidate was, had to 321 00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:55,760 Speaker 1: be better than Tim Ryan. But yeah, he doesn't want 322 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:58,119 Speaker 1: to He doesn't want to have a bipartisan conversation. These 323 00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:02,280 Speaker 1: people aren't leaders. These people are hacks or demagogues, panderers. 324 00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:08,320 Speaker 1: If we're going to speak about demagoguery and pandering, I 325 00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:10,359 Speaker 1: think demagoguery is actually not a fair word for her. 326 00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:13,280 Speaker 1: It's too big and fancy a word just be just 327 00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:17,679 Speaker 1: being a total phony and a fraud and saying whatever 328 00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:21,480 Speaker 1: she thinks she has to in the moment to get 329 00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:25,199 Speaker 1: the most support from the immediate people around her. You 330 00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:27,679 Speaker 1: gotta think of Kirsten Gillibrand when that stuff comes up. 331 00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:29,960 Speaker 1: I mean, she she's really in a class by herself. 332 00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:32,880 Speaker 1: She's she should be an embarrassment the Democratic Party. I mean, 333 00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:36,879 Speaker 1: she's just nothing but stupid talking points from her all 334 00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 1: the time. It's it's like MSNBC built her in a 335 00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:44,840 Speaker 1: lab somewhere and unleashed her on the public. Here's here's 336 00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:48,880 Speaker 1: her take. Remember the president is going tomorrow to He's 337 00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:52,480 Speaker 1: given speeches, he's talked about it. The evils of white nationalism. 338 00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:56,800 Speaker 1: He outlined different approaches that he's willing to to look 339 00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:59,639 Speaker 1: into in order to try and stop the next mass shooting. 340 00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:04,760 Speaker 1: He's all these things exactly what the Democrats pretend they 341 00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:08,200 Speaker 1: want him to do. And here's the response he gets 342 00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:14,399 Speaker 1: from someone a Democratic presidential candidate, no less like Jillibrand 343 00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:18,240 Speaker 1: played twenty and unfortunately, President Trump is unwilling to take 344 00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:22,760 Speaker 1: responsibility for his own actions. He's unwilling to recognize that 345 00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:27,400 Speaker 1: he's spent four years demonizing the most vulnerable, being racist 346 00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:32,240 Speaker 1: in his rhetoric and his language, calling Mexicans rapists, talking 347 00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:36,640 Speaker 1: about people at the border invading this country and infestations. 348 00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:39,040 Speaker 1: What does he think is going to happen. He has 349 00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:44,679 Speaker 1: emboldened white supremacists, he has emboldened white nationalists, and it 350 00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:47,080 Speaker 1: has all now come home to roost. And so he 351 00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:51,920 Speaker 1: needs to take responsibility. I mean, she had moron. Of course, 352 00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:54,120 Speaker 1: he's not going to take responsibility because he's not responsible 353 00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:58,960 Speaker 1: for any of this. He needs to take responsibility. Why 354 00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:02,640 Speaker 1: do you know what. The most amazing thing about that 355 00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:09,000 Speaker 1: utterly insipid nonsense from Jillibrand if the President did stand 356 00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:12,120 Speaker 1: up and say, you know what I've been I am 357 00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:15,040 Speaker 1: too harsh in my language. Sometimes I'm going to I'm 358 00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:17,880 Speaker 1: going to try and be more cognizant of the sensitivities 359 00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:20,320 Speaker 1: that are out there when it comes to issues that 360 00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:23,800 Speaker 1: touch on race, and I'll be more precise. And i 361 00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:26,240 Speaker 1: just want all all people in the American family, and 362 00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:30,160 Speaker 1: everyone of all of all races and ethnicities and religions 363 00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:33,000 Speaker 1: to know that I hold you in equal regard and 364 00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:35,280 Speaker 1: I'm a president for all of you. You know, if 365 00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:40,320 Speaker 1: he gave the Gettysburg address of you know, maya culpas, 366 00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:42,320 Speaker 1: I don't think he should do. But I'm just saying 367 00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:44,720 Speaker 1: if he did do that, you know what they would 368 00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:46,639 Speaker 1: say to Moor. They wouldn't say that was a great speech. 369 00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:48,639 Speaker 1: And I'm glad we finally got through to the president. 370 00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:50,160 Speaker 1: I hope he can work with him going forward. They'd 371 00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:55,160 Speaker 1: say he's still racist, he's still a terrible person, and 372 00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:57,120 Speaker 1: you need to vote him out of office, and maybe 373 00:24:57,160 --> 00:24:58,919 Speaker 1: we should impeach him, and maybe we should send him 374 00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:02,520 Speaker 1: in his whole family to prison. These people are nuts. 375 00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:07,480 Speaker 1: They have brainwashed themselves and each other on the left. 376 00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:11,440 Speaker 1: They no longer have a rational area that you can 377 00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:18,119 Speaker 1: engage in when it comes to Trump, they've completely and 378 00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:22,280 Speaker 1: utterly lost it. And they're also a bunch of just 379 00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:26,160 Speaker 1: total phonies on this. Though the whole first day's criticism 380 00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:31,000 Speaker 1: was Trump isn't denouncing white nationalists, and now it's well, 381 00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:34,800 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter because he's not taking responsibility for all 382 00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:37,800 Speaker 1: the hate that he's created. Even though he's denouncing white nationalists. 383 00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:41,640 Speaker 1: You know, tomorrow it'll it would be something else. None 384 00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:43,240 Speaker 1: of this is helpful, by the way, Democrats have no 385 00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:45,680 Speaker 1: plans that are going to help any of this. That's 386 00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:47,880 Speaker 1: really what bothers me about this more than anything else, 387 00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:50,920 Speaker 1: is that people lost family members, they lost loved ones. 388 00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:54,160 Speaker 1: This is it is a terrible tragedy. It's evil, it's 389 00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:58,199 Speaker 1: just wrong. They're suffering. Man, These communities have been ripped apart, 390 00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:01,879 Speaker 1: and Democrats don't have the common human decency to just 391 00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:04,800 Speaker 1: focus on that problem for a couple of days first 392 00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:09,679 Speaker 1: before turning it into some political circus. They pretend to 393 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:13,680 Speaker 1: care so much about those who were killed in El 394 00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:17,040 Speaker 1: Paso and dating, the Democrats go out of their way 395 00:26:17,080 --> 00:26:19,520 Speaker 1: to make us all think that that is more important 396 00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:23,200 Speaker 1: than right now than anything else except for fundraising off 397 00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:25,119 Speaker 1: of it. I mean, that's really important for Democrats too, 398 00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:29,199 Speaker 1: except for slandering the president of the United States. I mean, 399 00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:35,119 Speaker 1: that's that's really important. Also, you know, just lying about 400 00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:38,320 Speaker 1: the issues, lying about what they've said in the past, 401 00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:40,680 Speaker 1: lying what the president said in the past, all for 402 00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:44,400 Speaker 1: political advantage. That's maybe more important to the Democrats than 403 00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:48,840 Speaker 1: solving the problem, than addressing the issue, or then even 404 00:26:48,840 --> 00:26:54,720 Speaker 1: allowing people to heal and recover with the dignity of 405 00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:58,520 Speaker 1: their elected leadership, giving them support instead of giving them 406 00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:02,440 Speaker 1: a lecture all the time. Here's the thought. I'm sure 407 00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:05,119 Speaker 1: there are people that lost loved ones who are Trump supporters. 408 00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:07,800 Speaker 1: What does Jillibrand have to say to them. Two gun 409 00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:10,920 Speaker 1: owners out there who say, well, a Biden administration means 410 00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:13,360 Speaker 1: they're going to come from my guns, bingo, you're right. 411 00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:15,720 Speaker 1: If you have an assault weapon, the fact of the 412 00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:19,119 Speaker 1: matter is they should be illegal, period. Look, the Second 413 00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:22,600 Speaker 1: Amendment doesn't say you can't restrict the kinds of weapons 414 00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:25,920 Speaker 1: people can own. You can't buy a bazuka, you can't 415 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:29,199 Speaker 1: have a flamethrower. The guys who make these arguments are 416 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:31,800 Speaker 1: the people who say the tree of liberty is water 417 00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:34,639 Speaker 1: with the blood of patriots. We need the protection against 418 00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:37,520 Speaker 1: the government. We need have fifteen for that. You need 419 00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:40,080 Speaker 1: something well beyond whether or not you're going to have 420 00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:45,080 Speaker 1: an assault weapon. So Biden is a moron. No, I 421 00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:48,320 Speaker 1: really mean that. I mean he's not a smart person. 422 00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:52,000 Speaker 1: I know he's been the vice president, and the Democrats 423 00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:54,480 Speaker 1: they all secretly know that he's just not very bright. 424 00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:58,520 Speaker 1: He does a good imitation of a smart person. It's 425 00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:02,159 Speaker 1: like he's an actor who has studied politicians his whole life, 426 00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:05,760 Speaker 1: and so he plays a great politician on TV. But 427 00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:10,800 Speaker 1: the moment you dig down beneath the most superficial, grinning, smiling, 428 00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:15,640 Speaker 1: backslapping talking points, prepared speech is nonsense. It's a guy 429 00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:19,719 Speaker 1: who doesn't know you know what from you know what? 430 00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:22,560 Speaker 1: I was gonna say something else, but I couldn't. It 431 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 1: doesn't know something from Shinola? Producer, Mark, what is Shinola? 432 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:30,040 Speaker 1: By the way, is that really a thing? Never heard 433 00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:33,600 Speaker 1: what the other thing is? You don't know blank from Shinola? 434 00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:36,399 Speaker 1: You've never heard that before? I know blank from blank? 435 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:40,560 Speaker 1: Oh okay, well that probably is another way to do it, 436 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:44,640 Speaker 1: all right, So anyway, let's break this apart, shall we. 437 00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:52,320 Speaker 1: Let's break apart this stupidity. Okay, let's do this. You 438 00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:56,000 Speaker 1: have Biden saying that there should be an assault weapons ban. 439 00:28:56,160 --> 00:29:01,560 Speaker 1: We've already been through this. We've all read had an 440 00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:05,800 Speaker 1: assault weapons ban back in the nineties. No person who 441 00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:08,480 Speaker 1: looks at the stats, looks at the numbers, comes away 442 00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:13,200 Speaker 1: from that and says, you know what, this was a 443 00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:16,120 Speaker 1: good idea. This really stopped a lot of violence. It's 444 00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:19,520 Speaker 1: just not true. You have a couple of hundred people 445 00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:22,680 Speaker 1: total in the country killed by rifles each year, A 446 00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:30,000 Speaker 1: couple of hundred. It's a very, very small overall part 447 00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:34,800 Speaker 1: of the gun violence in America. So let's start with that. 448 00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:39,560 Speaker 1: Why do they want to ban assault rifles? Because it 449 00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:42,400 Speaker 1: makes the people who don't like guns and don't like 450 00:29:42,560 --> 00:29:47,200 Speaker 1: gun owners feel better, makes them feel happier about themselves. 451 00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:51,400 Speaker 1: It makes them feel like, well, you know, there's something 452 00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:53,520 Speaker 1: that we're getting out of this whole thing. Those silly 453 00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:57,320 Speaker 1: gun owners can't keep their crazy weapons of war anymore. 454 00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:03,440 Speaker 1: They mean, I suppose the millions of people who currently 455 00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:09,000 Speaker 1: own completely lawfully with no threat to anyone else, the 456 00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:13,600 Speaker 1: millions of my fellow Americans who own so called assault 457 00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:15,560 Speaker 1: rifles or what would fall under the and you know, 458 00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:17,760 Speaker 1: people don't need to be pedantic about this. Okay, I 459 00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:19,520 Speaker 1: love it when I get other conservatives with Buck. There's 460 00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:22,120 Speaker 1: no such things as an assault rifle. Yeah, guys, I know, 461 00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:24,560 Speaker 1: but there is such a thing as an assault rifle 462 00:30:24,600 --> 00:30:27,160 Speaker 1: if they write a law that says X, Y and 463 00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:29,800 Speaker 1: Z equals assault rifle, and we're gonna take it from you. 464 00:30:29,880 --> 00:30:31,600 Speaker 1: So you know, people can keep telling me there's no 465 00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:33,640 Speaker 1: such things. I know, there's no such thing as an 466 00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:37,520 Speaker 1: assault rifle, but they will designate rifles as assault rifles 467 00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:41,560 Speaker 1: and then take them from you. And it is based 468 00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:43,959 Speaker 1: primarily on cosmetic features, but so be it. As far 469 00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:48,960 Speaker 1: as they're concerned, that's what they will do. So Biden's hold, 470 00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:51,240 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take your assault rifle. This is because he's 471 00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:54,920 Speaker 1: trying to just play to the left wing bass and 472 00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:58,280 Speaker 1: he's not. He's not losing any votes because of that, 473 00:30:58,320 --> 00:31:02,160 Speaker 1: and he knows it. So it doesn't do anything, though. 474 00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:04,920 Speaker 1: I mean, anyone who says that an assault rifle van 475 00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:07,200 Speaker 1: is going to stop mass shootings just doesn't know what 476 00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:10,480 Speaker 1: the heck he or she, assuming those are that person's 477 00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:15,240 Speaker 1: preferred pronouns, is talking about. I know, I can't assume 478 00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:17,200 Speaker 1: the pronouns these days. Hi, my name is Bucks X 479 00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:19,360 Speaker 1: and he him. I just want to start doing this 480 00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:21,840 Speaker 1: all the time. Producer Mark, do you do you stay? 481 00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:24,360 Speaker 1: Do you like to stay your preferred pronouns or do 482 00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:26,400 Speaker 1: you like to leave us guessing? I like to make 483 00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:29,440 Speaker 1: everyone guess right, because that way, if you're having a 484 00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:31,080 Speaker 1: bad day, someone steps out of line, you're like, I 485 00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:36,960 Speaker 1: prefer z XE. I do not like gendered designation to 486 00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:40,240 Speaker 1: be guessed right. And then people will have to immediately 487 00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:42,160 Speaker 1: grovel at your feet, producer Mark, and say we are 488 00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:47,240 Speaker 1: so sorry, all hale, Producer Mark. I should do the 489 00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:49,400 Speaker 1: same thing then, right, I could keep people off balance. 490 00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:51,200 Speaker 1: I walk into a job interview like, hey, how you 491 00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:55,680 Speaker 1: doing good to meet you? So excuse me, sir, No, 492 00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:59,520 Speaker 1: no gendered language in this job interview, Thank you very much. 493 00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:03,160 Speaker 1: I could probably scare them with a lawsuit. You know, 494 00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:05,880 Speaker 1: I'm just saying. Somebody comes in says, hey, Buck did 495 00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:08,640 Speaker 1: a great job. He's really doing well in this interview Europe. Next, 496 00:32:09,040 --> 00:32:12,080 Speaker 1: excuse me, sir, All right, now back to back to this. 497 00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:14,320 Speaker 1: Sault rifles. Sorry, I know gendered pronouns. I got a 498 00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:18,200 Speaker 1: little digression going there, So assault rifles. Banding them doesn't 499 00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:19,480 Speaker 1: do anything. We know this, But then you get to 500 00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:21,200 Speaker 1: this other point. And I hear Libs say this all 501 00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:23,560 Speaker 1: the time, and it says though they don't know anything 502 00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:29,720 Speaker 1: about state control, about history, that they just don't know anything. 503 00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:34,240 Speaker 1: They say, Oh, Piers Morgan, Who's I'm Piers Morgan. I'm 504 00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:36,560 Speaker 1: gonna have a show on politics in America because I 505 00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:39,320 Speaker 1: can sound fancy to people who don't know any better. 506 00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:43,600 Speaker 1: He said something like, you know they're gonna have five 507 00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:45,520 Speaker 1: thousand nukes to fire at you, So what difference does 508 00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:47,160 Speaker 1: that make you? Even an A or fifteen? Really, that's 509 00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:51,600 Speaker 1: I guess that's why we so easily triumphed against the 510 00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:56,360 Speaker 1: North Vietnamese, and why Afghanistan was so easily pacified. And 511 00:32:57,160 --> 00:33:00,000 Speaker 1: I mean, name a country where there was a miss 512 00:33:00,040 --> 00:33:05,000 Speaker 1: smatch between the insurgency and the government based only on 513 00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:09,560 Speaker 1: large conventional weapons and nukes, and I'll tell you, And 514 00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:12,800 Speaker 1: if the population was well armed, I'll tell you a 515 00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:17,800 Speaker 1: country they had a really hard time suppressing an insurgency, 516 00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:22,760 Speaker 1: or perhaps even weren't able to and lost. To control 517 00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:25,680 Speaker 1: a population, you need more than nukes. You need a 518 00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:29,920 Speaker 1: population that is incapable of defending itself door to door, 519 00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:34,480 Speaker 1: house to house. All one needs is a passing familiarity 520 00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:38,800 Speaker 1: with recent history to understand that this is really not 521 00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:42,640 Speaker 1: that complicated, right, It should not be a surprise to 522 00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:46,160 Speaker 1: Joe Biden that you don't need f sixteens to prevent 523 00:33:46,240 --> 00:33:51,360 Speaker 1: government tyranny. If every government stooge, if there was a 524 00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:54,400 Speaker 1: tyrannical takeover of the federal government in this country, if 525 00:33:54,400 --> 00:33:56,840 Speaker 1: every government stooge who went house to house saying, you know, 526 00:33:56,880 --> 00:34:00,200 Speaker 1: give me give me your you know, your firstborn child 527 00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:03,160 Speaker 1: than all of your money, and that person might end 528 00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:05,760 Speaker 1: up going to millions of You know that that government 529 00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:09,480 Speaker 1: agent is going to millions of homes where there's a 530 00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:14,080 Speaker 1: realistic chance that the inhabitant has some decent firepower, weapons 531 00:34:14,080 --> 00:34:18,560 Speaker 1: and common usage. That changes the whole calculation. This goes 532 00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:23,520 Speaker 1: back to I believe it was a Japanese admiral, although 533 00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:25,680 Speaker 1: some people have told me this quote is apocryphal, but 534 00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:29,560 Speaker 1: there's this quote about from a Japanese admiral in World 535 00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:33,439 Speaker 1: War Two that they never could have invaded the US 536 00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:35,560 Speaker 1: mainland because it would have been a rifle behind every 537 00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:39,279 Speaker 1: blade of grass. True of the Japanese invading. It would 538 00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:40,839 Speaker 1: have been true if the Japanese had invaded the US 539 00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:43,520 Speaker 1: mainland and guess what it would be true if any 540 00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:49,480 Speaker 1: government authority went tyrannical. So it is a check on tyranny. 541 00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:52,160 Speaker 1: It's a lot easier to enforce tyranny if you can 542 00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:54,160 Speaker 1: go a house to house and all the people can 543 00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:56,279 Speaker 1: do is try to, you know, stab you with a 544 00:34:56,360 --> 00:34:58,960 Speaker 1: knife or hit you with a rolling pin. You can 545 00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:01,879 Speaker 1: clear out rooms, clear round houses pretty easily. When that's 546 00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:05,080 Speaker 1: what you're up against. Somebody's got an aar and a 547 00:35:05,120 --> 00:35:08,800 Speaker 1: couple of hundred rounds. Government's gonna have a much tougher 548 00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:11,279 Speaker 1: time unless they're just gonna blow up the entire house. 549 00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:14,520 Speaker 1: But remember they want to control the population. They don't 550 00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:17,120 Speaker 1: want to just eradicate the entire population. Governments want to 551 00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:20,960 Speaker 1: be in control of citizens. So anyway, it's just a 552 00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:23,840 Speaker 1: it's a foolish argument. They make it all the time. 553 00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:29,080 Speaker 1: We're not expecting to go nuke to nuke with a 554 00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:31,279 Speaker 1: tyrannical government. We're expecting to be able to put up 555 00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:33,560 Speaker 1: a fight, because that is all you need to be 556 00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:36,800 Speaker 1: a check on tyranny. Maybe somebody should tell Biden that, 557 00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:39,239 Speaker 1: but he won't care because he's just an imbecile. The 558 00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:44,480 Speaker 1: shoot her in ol Passo posted a manifesto online consumed 559 00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:51,680 Speaker 1: by racist hate in one voice, our nation must condemn racism, bigotry, 560 00:35:52,160 --> 00:35:58,600 Speaker 1: and white supremacy. These sinister ideologies must be defeated. Hate 561 00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:01,680 Speaker 1: has no place in America. Now I've heard the critique. Oh, 562 00:36:01,719 --> 00:36:04,479 Speaker 1: he didn't write that, he's fair enough, but he said 563 00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:09,960 Speaker 1: the words, and he did say white supremacy is hate 564 00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:14,319 Speaker 1: and should be treated as domestic terror. Important for you 565 00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:16,600 Speaker 1: then to say that this is the same man who 566 00:36:16,680 --> 00:36:21,320 Speaker 1: called white nationalists and klansmen and neo Nazis very fine 567 00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:24,000 Speaker 1: people who ask for more immigrants who look like those 568 00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:26,480 Speaker 1: in Sweden and Norway that the whitest places on the planet, 569 00:36:26,600 --> 00:36:30,160 Speaker 1: while describing immigrants from Haiti as full of aids, describing 570 00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:33,720 Speaker 1: the people of this community as rapists and criminals, talking 571 00:36:33,760 --> 00:36:36,880 Speaker 1: about people as though they are animals or self human. 572 00:36:37,239 --> 00:36:41,160 Speaker 1: This necessarily results. You saw that manifesto. The words that 573 00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:43,440 Speaker 1: he was using were many of the same words that 574 00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:48,800 Speaker 1: the president has been using. This necessarily results in what betto? 575 00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:53,879 Speaker 1: What does it result in? Interesting? He trailed off there 576 00:36:54,200 --> 00:36:59,239 Speaker 1: because you know, now we do have a shooter in 577 00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:03,880 Speaker 1: Ohio that is left wing, and as a fan, I 578 00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:07,520 Speaker 1: just I'm curious what Beto was going for there, he 579 00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:11,480 Speaker 1: just changed in the middle. This necessarily results in in 580 00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:16,320 Speaker 1: what people acting out or people calling out the president 581 00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:19,479 Speaker 1: could be either it could be either. I just don't 582 00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:21,520 Speaker 1: know how crazy Betto is willing to get because he 583 00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:25,360 Speaker 1: already blames the president for something that no same president, 584 00:37:26,080 --> 00:37:28,480 Speaker 1: I was, no same person rather could blame the president for. 585 00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:33,040 Speaker 1: He's already put this on the lap of the commander 586 00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:37,200 Speaker 1: in chief as though this is something that he bears 587 00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:40,359 Speaker 1: responsibility for. And if you don't agree with that, you're 588 00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:42,960 Speaker 1: clearly a bad person. And Betto is just full of 589 00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:47,279 Speaker 1: lies here. Trump didn't say they're very fine, that that 590 00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:51,640 Speaker 1: white nationalist and clansmen are very fine people. He said 591 00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:56,400 Speaker 1: when it came to the dispute over monuments Confederate minumes 592 00:37:56,400 --> 00:37:58,319 Speaker 1: and taking it down there, there are fine people on 593 00:37:58,400 --> 00:38:02,920 Speaker 1: both sides of that issue, was what he meant to say. 594 00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:05,320 Speaker 1: That's what he was trying to say. He had already 595 00:38:05,320 --> 00:38:09,600 Speaker 1: condemned white nationalists. Trump doesn't like any of those tiki 596 00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:15,520 Speaker 1: torched losers. Come on, man, everybody knows that. And then 597 00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:18,360 Speaker 1: his whole thing about calling people of this community rapists 598 00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:22,760 Speaker 1: and murderers. He's never called the people of El Paso 599 00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:26,719 Speaker 1: rapists and murderers. Trump, in a sweeping statement, said that 600 00:38:26,760 --> 00:38:28,520 Speaker 1: you know, Mexico is not sending us their best and 601 00:38:28,560 --> 00:38:30,640 Speaker 1: some of the people they're sending, you know, he says 602 00:38:30,680 --> 00:38:32,480 Speaker 1: they're sending us rapists and murders, and some of them 603 00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:35,799 Speaker 1: are very fine people. What he's saying is that there 604 00:38:35,800 --> 00:38:39,960 Speaker 1: are people to come across through illegal immigration that are criminals. 605 00:38:40,040 --> 00:38:42,560 Speaker 1: This is a fact. Just go type in MS thirteen 606 00:38:42,680 --> 00:38:45,959 Speaker 1: and illegal illegal alien and see all the news hits 607 00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:48,480 Speaker 1: you get. There are rapists and murderers who come across 608 00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:51,360 Speaker 1: the border illegally. And Trump was the first president to 609 00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:53,799 Speaker 1: come along, or first Kennedy to come along and be 610 00:38:53,840 --> 00:38:57,480 Speaker 1: willing to say that, which is a fact. Of course, 611 00:38:57,520 --> 00:38:59,160 Speaker 1: he doesn't think that all of them. That's why he 612 00:38:59,160 --> 00:39:00,920 Speaker 1: said there's some that are very find people. No one 613 00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:02,879 Speaker 1: thinks that he really believes that all of the good 614 00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:06,319 Speaker 1: would be more atic beyond belief. In fact, we know 615 00:39:06,360 --> 00:39:08,760 Speaker 1: a very small percentage of the people that come across 616 00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:13,200 Speaker 1: the border illegally are criminals of any kind. But if 617 00:39:13,239 --> 00:39:16,120 Speaker 1: we're going to talk about the Valedictorians and say, oh, 618 00:39:16,120 --> 00:39:17,480 Speaker 1: look at this, we should just you know, the more 619 00:39:17,480 --> 00:39:19,839 Speaker 1: of the merrier, more illegal is better. We should also 620 00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:21,920 Speaker 1: be able to say, well, there's also a downside to this. 621 00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:26,400 Speaker 1: There are criminals who come across as part of this surge. 622 00:39:26,480 --> 00:39:29,640 Speaker 1: There are law enforcement problems that in fact, there's a 623 00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:34,640 Speaker 1: lot of them, but they still misrepresent what Trump says, 624 00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:36,960 Speaker 1: if what Trump. If Trump is so terrible, if his 625 00:39:37,040 --> 00:39:40,719 Speaker 1: beliefs are so awful, then why do they always have 626 00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:42,960 Speaker 1: to lie about what it is that Trump stands for 627 00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:44,560 Speaker 1: and what he says. I think we all know the 628 00:39:44,600 --> 00:39:50,640 Speaker 1: answer to that. You know, he says all this, all 629 00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:53,479 Speaker 1: this horrible stuff out the president the United States, far 630 00:39:53,560 --> 00:39:57,200 Speaker 1: beyond anything that you heard Republicans saying when they were 631 00:39:57,280 --> 00:39:59,719 Speaker 1: running against Barack Obama in twenty eleven. I mean, they 632 00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:03,440 Speaker 1: ever spoke in such defamatory terms about Barack Obama. And 633 00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:05,359 Speaker 1: oh my gosh, good heavens, if you said anything about 634 00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:09,359 Speaker 1: Saint Obama, people just jumped all over you. But it's 635 00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:11,920 Speaker 1: not just betcha, I look better as a desperate man's 636 00:40:12,120 --> 00:40:15,600 Speaker 1: His candidacy is a joke. He probably should have dropped 637 00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:18,319 Speaker 1: out yesterday. He's probably should be long gone as a 638 00:40:18,360 --> 00:40:22,680 Speaker 1: presidential candidate. He can't get any any wind in his 639 00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:26,399 Speaker 1: sails at all, Despite all this media love for him, 640 00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:28,719 Speaker 1: and they treat they treat him like he's a serious person, 641 00:40:28,760 --> 00:40:32,479 Speaker 1: a serious candidate, when he's neither. But you know, Joe 642 00:40:32,520 --> 00:40:35,080 Speaker 1: Biden is out there doing the same, Joe Biden's taking 643 00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:38,600 Speaker 1: taking cheap shots at the president and his record on 644 00:40:38,600 --> 00:40:42,120 Speaker 1: this one right now and play clip six. There's no 645 00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:46,120 Speaker 1: question that his reddick has contributed to at a minimum, 646 00:40:46,160 --> 00:40:49,120 Speaker 1: at a minimum of dumbing down the way in which 647 00:40:49,160 --> 00:40:52,399 Speaker 1: we as a society talk about one another, the way 648 00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:56,240 Speaker 1: we've always been looked. We've always brought the country together. 649 00:40:56,400 --> 00:40:59,239 Speaker 1: We've never you know, we the people we hold these 650 00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:02,239 Speaker 1: true self. He flies in the face of all the 651 00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:04,680 Speaker 1: basic things that we've never really met the standard, we've 652 00:41:04,680 --> 00:41:07,680 Speaker 1: never abandoned it before. He looks like he's just flat 653 00:41:07,719 --> 00:41:12,360 Speaker 1: abandoned the theory that we are one people. Based on 654 00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:16,520 Speaker 1: what I mean again, this is a really terrible thing 655 00:41:16,560 --> 00:41:19,840 Speaker 1: to say about a president. He's abandoned the theory that 656 00:41:19,920 --> 00:41:22,520 Speaker 1: we're all one people. No's he just believes in the 657 00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:26,040 Speaker 1: theory that people who are in the country legally should 658 00:41:26,080 --> 00:41:27,840 Speaker 1: be treated differently than people who are not in the 659 00:41:27,840 --> 00:41:34,240 Speaker 1: country legally. That is a novel. That is a crazy statement. 660 00:41:34,280 --> 00:41:36,840 Speaker 1: Now to the modern Democratic Party, that there's any difference, 661 00:41:37,200 --> 00:41:39,520 Speaker 1: that there should be any differentiation between those from the 662 00:41:39,520 --> 00:41:41,480 Speaker 1: country legally and those who are in the country in 663 00:41:41,520 --> 00:41:44,400 Speaker 1: an illegal status. Those who are citizens or who are 664 00:41:44,440 --> 00:41:48,920 Speaker 1: permanent residents, a part of the American family forever legally 665 00:41:49,480 --> 00:41:51,440 Speaker 1: should be treated in any way differently from those who 666 00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:53,200 Speaker 1: just show up and say, I want to be here now, sorry, 667 00:41:53,239 --> 00:41:56,359 Speaker 1: broke your laws. Don't care. Give me welfare benefits, give 668 00:41:56,360 --> 00:42:00,400 Speaker 1: me access to jobs, give me free school.

It's 670 00:42:05,080 --> 00:42:08,920 Speaker 1: a really disheartening thing to watch how the Democrats are 671 00:42:08,960 --> 00:42:11,080 Speaker 1: all trying to outdo each other. It's a race to 672 00:42:11,120 --> 00:42:13,399 Speaker 1: the bottom for who can say the nastiest things about 673 00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:16,840 Speaker 1: the president. You know, you had Betcha responding there to 674 00:42:16,880 --> 00:42:20,560 Speaker 1: the President calling out white nationalists and saying that they're 675 00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:24,080 Speaker 1: that they're disgusting, that they're horrible, that you know that 676 00:42:24,120 --> 00:42:26,959 Speaker 1: they have no place in America. That does that even 677 00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:28,440 Speaker 1: factor in now, bet I was like, oh, no, he's 678 00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:30,880 Speaker 1: still a terrible racist. He's still the worst. He's still awful. 679 00:42:32,440 --> 00:42:37,480 Speaker 1: You know, Joe Biden's running around, uh saying that this 680 00:42:37,640 --> 00:42:40,720 Speaker 1: is the first time that he's ever heard Trump condemned 681 00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:43,120 Speaker 1: white supremacy. That's that's his take. I mean, look, Joe, 682 00:42:43,520 --> 00:42:46,319 Speaker 1: Joe gets away with more than anything else just not 683 00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:50,319 Speaker 1: being very bright, and the media constantly, constantly covers for 684 00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:55,680 Speaker 1: him for just being an intense, an intense mediocrity because look, 685 00:42:55,840 --> 00:42:58,360 Speaker 1: Biden is staking strong in the polls. I'm my my 686 00:42:58,400 --> 00:43:00,680 Speaker 1: prediction of Biden may have been wrong. All we'll see. 687 00:43:00,760 --> 00:43:04,279 Speaker 1: But here's what he says about Trump and condemning white nationalists. 688 00:43:04,280 --> 00:43:09,120 Speaker 1: Play eight and for the first time today, the first 689 00:43:09,160 --> 00:43:12,600 Speaker 1: time I've ever heard him say he condemns white, white supremacy, 690 00:43:12,800 --> 00:43:16,359 Speaker 1: white terrorism. When prisms do I have to reject, I've 691 00:43:16,400 --> 00:43:21,560 Speaker 1: reject David Duke, rejected David Duke.

I put it on Twitter last week 694 00:43:28,719 --> 00:43:30,399 Speaker 1: how many times. You know what, It's an amazing got 695 00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:33,560 Speaker 1: the neo Nazis and the white nationalists because they should 696 00:43:33,600 --> 00:43:38,120 Speaker 1: be condemned totally. Racism is evil and those who cause 697 00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:42,799 Speaker 1: violence in its name are criminals and thugs, including the KKK, 698 00:43:43,600 --> 00:43:48,680 Speaker 1: Neo Nazis, white supremacies, and other hate groups that are 699 00:43:48,719 --> 00:43:53,200 Speaker 1: repugnant to everything we hold dear as American. For the 700 00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:56,480 Speaker 1: first time today, the first time I've ever heard him 701 00:43:56,480 --> 00:44:01,560 Speaker 1: say he condemns white, white supremacy, white terrorists. Maybe Joe 702 00:44:01,600 --> 00:44:05,840 Speaker 1: should just listen. Then, those are all different instances of 703 00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:10,040 Speaker 1: the President publicly from his platform as the leader of 704 00:44:10,080 --> 00:44:12,319 Speaker 1: the free world, just saying what we all know, which 705 00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:15,400 Speaker 1: is that white supremacy and racism are terrible things. They 706 00:44:15,400 --> 00:44:19,239 Speaker 1: are evils to be fought and to be destroyed, to 707 00:44:19,280 --> 00:44:22,200 Speaker 1: be annihilated, to be pushed out of society at every turn, 708 00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:25,960 Speaker 1: at every possibility. How many times does he have to 709 00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:30,440 Speaker 1: say it before they'll at least stop saying that he 710 00:44:30,480 --> 00:44:32,000 Speaker 1: won't say it? I mean, can they can they just 711 00:44:32,080 --> 00:44:35,040 Speaker 1: give Can they just give him credit for that? Can 712 00:44:35,080 --> 00:44:37,319 Speaker 1: they just stop pretending that he won't say Oh, he 713 00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:40,280 Speaker 1: won't say it, He won't say it. Can they stop 714 00:44:40,320 --> 00:44:44,040 Speaker 1: doing that? Please? That's just a lie. He says it 715 00:44:44,080 --> 00:44:46,759 Speaker 1: many many times, and they must know. I don't know 716 00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:50,360 Speaker 1: Joe Biden so out to lunch, who knows what he 717 00:44:50,400 --> 00:44:54,919 Speaker 1: really thinks? And then you've got I mean, it's it's 718 00:44:54,960 --> 00:44:57,320 Speaker 1: it is so frusting. You got Corey Booker running around 719 00:44:57,800 --> 00:45:00,279 Speaker 1: saying the crazy stuff that that he says. I mean, 720 00:45:00,480 --> 00:45:04,520 Speaker 1: you have so many, all these candidates who just don't 721 00:45:04,560 --> 00:45:07,400 Speaker 1: care about the damage they're doing to discourse in the 722 00:45:07,440 --> 00:45:13,400 Speaker 1: country while complaining about how our discourse has coursened, about 723 00:45:13,400 --> 00:45:16,319 Speaker 1: how we're not civil to each other, or when we're 724 00:45:16,320 --> 00:45:19,640 Speaker 1: talking about politics and we're gonna talk about Mitch McConnell 725 00:45:19,640 --> 00:45:22,240 Speaker 1: and how they've got you know, they had protesters outside 726 00:45:22,239 --> 00:45:29,760 Speaker 1: Mitch's house calling him myrtle, murder turtle and hashtag massacre 727 00:45:29,880 --> 00:45:32,680 Speaker 1: Mitch putting that on placards. These people are acting like 728 00:45:32,719 --> 00:45:38,480 Speaker 1: total lunatics. They're all Democrats, they're all left wing supporters. Well, 729 00:45:38,560 --> 00:45:40,640 Speaker 1: we'll talk about that in a moment. Welcome back to 730 00:45:40,640 --> 00:45:45,799 Speaker 1: the Buck Sexton Show. Democrats love to talk about civility 731 00:45:45,920 --> 00:45:51,279 Speaker 1: and politics, and yet we know they're deeply uncivil on 732 00:45:51,280 --> 00:45:55,080 Speaker 1: a regular basis. We know that they say horrible things 733 00:45:55,120 --> 00:45:58,920 Speaker 1: about our law enforcement community. We know they say terrible 734 00:45:58,920 --> 00:46:02,080 Speaker 1: things about Republicans. They like to call the President of 735 00:46:02,080 --> 00:46:06,600 Speaker 1: the United States a racist, a white nationalist, more or 736 00:46:06,680 --> 00:46:10,880 Speaker 1: less a member of the k k K. And last 737 00:46:11,000 --> 00:46:15,719 Speaker 1: night you had protesters that had gathered outside of Mitch 738 00:46:15,800 --> 00:46:26,879 Speaker 1: McConnell's house yelling death threats and hashtag massacre Mitch, which yes, 739 00:46:26,960 --> 00:46:30,160 Speaker 1: I know can be construed as a double entendre. But 740 00:46:30,680 --> 00:46:35,120 Speaker 1: massacre Mitch was what they were showing on social media 741 00:46:35,160 --> 00:46:37,560 Speaker 1: and sharing on placards outside. I mean, they went to 742 00:46:37,560 --> 00:46:40,200 Speaker 1: this guy's house in the middle night, folks, Who does that? 743 00:46:41,080 --> 00:46:45,279 Speaker 1: What kind of lunatic thinks that showing up at a 744 00:46:45,480 --> 00:46:48,520 Speaker 1: senior citizen who just broke his shoulder, by the way 745 00:46:48,560 --> 00:46:51,520 Speaker 1: and is recovering at home, showing up at his house 746 00:46:51,920 --> 00:46:56,200 Speaker 1: to chant about how he has quote murderle sorry, murder 747 00:46:56,320 --> 00:47:01,319 Speaker 1: turtle and yelling things like out come out wherever you are. 748 00:47:02,520 --> 00:47:06,960 Speaker 1: And then a woman was yelling I can't even read it. 749 00:47:06,960 --> 00:47:10,359 Speaker 1: It was blank, don't give nobody a blank. Blank your 750 00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:15,760 Speaker 1: thoughts in prayers, Mitch, blank, you blank, your wife blank, 751 00:47:15,880 --> 00:47:19,360 Speaker 1: everything you stand for. This is all on video. I 752 00:47:19,400 --> 00:47:21,120 Speaker 1: mean I heard the video last night. It's just it's 753 00:47:21,160 --> 00:47:26,359 Speaker 1: just lunatic outside Mitch McConnell's house, screaming and threatening him 754 00:47:26,360 --> 00:47:32,359 Speaker 1: in his family, and no surprise here. Do you think 755 00:47:32,360 --> 00:47:35,160 Speaker 1: the Democrats say that they're going to back off now? 756 00:47:35,200 --> 00:47:38,680 Speaker 1: And maybe they're Maybe their rhetoric can cause nasty things 757 00:47:38,680 --> 00:47:42,160 Speaker 1: to happen too. Maybe it's not just a Republican problem, 758 00:47:42,200 --> 00:47:47,400 Speaker 1: as they say, it is when someone can act act 759 00:47:47,440 --> 00:47:53,319 Speaker 1: on their own to engage in violent behavior because of 760 00:47:55,680 --> 00:48:01,240 Speaker 1: contentious politics. Mitch McConnell trying to sleep last night, I can't, 761 00:48:01,320 --> 00:48:03,279 Speaker 1: trying to recover from a broken shoulder, which I'm sure 762 00:48:03,280 --> 00:48:07,320 Speaker 1: it's very painful at his age, and I really mean that. Meanwhile, 763 00:48:07,600 --> 00:48:14,000 Speaker 1: AOC who has been calling out Mitch McConnell on Twitter 764 00:48:14,040 --> 00:48:18,800 Speaker 1: for quite some time, she decided to make a huge 765 00:48:18,880 --> 00:48:22,680 Speaker 1: deal of some guys at a I forget what this 766 00:48:22,800 --> 00:48:28,200 Speaker 1: event is.

So oh, but do you think that Ocasio Cortez, 788 00:49:42,120 --> 00:49:45,360 Speaker 1: who has millions and millions of followers in social media, 789 00:49:45,600 --> 00:49:48,279 Speaker 1: do you think that she takes this in stride? No, 790 00:49:48,440 --> 00:49:51,960 Speaker 1: she tweeted out, Hey, Senate Majority Leader, Mitch McConnell, these 791 00:49:52,200 --> 00:49:56,440 Speaker 1: young men look like they work for you. She tweeted again, 792 00:49:56,719 --> 00:49:59,319 Speaker 1: just wanted to clarify, are you paying for young men 793 00:49:59,400 --> 00:50:03,279 Speaker 1: to prac dis groping and choking members of Congress with 794 00:50:03,320 --> 00:50:06,640 Speaker 1: your payroll?

Okay, folks, these are high school students that 796 00:50:13,719 --> 00:50:15,960 Speaker 1: just are wearing T shirts that say Team Mitch that 797 00:50:16,000 --> 00:50:18,960 Speaker 1: has nothing to do with Mitch McConnell, with his office 798 00:50:19,520 --> 00:50:28,279 Speaker 1: or anything else. And you know, this is just obviously good. 799 00:50:28,280 --> 00:50:30,640 Speaker 1: Are these kids are? Their lives are probably never gonna 800 00:50:30,640 --> 00:50:32,520 Speaker 1: be the same. I'm sure they're already getting all kinds 801 00:50:32,560 --> 00:50:36,279 Speaker 1: of death threats and people are saying horrible things about them, 802 00:50:36,320 --> 00:50:39,080 Speaker 1: and they may if they're applying to colleges, their colleges 803 00:50:39,120 --> 00:50:41,040 Speaker 1: may pull their oh you know all this stuff right 804 00:50:41,080 --> 00:50:46,000 Speaker 1: because essentially, you know, doxing all these kids or pushing 805 00:50:46,000 --> 00:50:51,480 Speaker 1: them out into public view where AOC is trashing them 806 00:50:51,520 --> 00:50:55,520 Speaker 1: and making a big deal of this. That seems to 807 00:50:55,520 --> 00:51:00,120 Speaker 1: be an overreaction to me. That seems to be a 808 00:51:00,160 --> 00:51:04,759 Speaker 1: bad thing for anybody in a really powerful position to 809 00:51:04,840 --> 00:51:07,400 Speaker 1: be doing. Mitch McConnell said that these people have nothing 810 00:51:07,440 --> 00:51:12,560 Speaker 1: to do with him, and you know this is not there. 811 00:51:12,600 --> 00:51:15,080 Speaker 1: They don't work for him, they're not affiliated with him. 812 00:51:15,200 --> 00:51:19,960 Speaker 1: And you know, but does AOC worry about you know 813 00:51:20,040 --> 00:51:24,200 Speaker 1: what this might mean that these kids wearing Team Mitch 814 00:51:24,280 --> 00:51:29,719 Speaker 1: t shirts in this viral photo.

They look like they're about 819 00:51:39,800 --> 00:51:44,560 Speaker 1: fifteen or sixteen years old. Quote, this is what the 820 00:51:44,640 --> 00:51:47,800 Speaker 1: Mitch McConnell spokesman said. These young men are not campaign staff, 821 00:51:47,840 --> 00:51:51,040 Speaker 1: they're high schoolers, and it's incredible that the national media 822 00:51:51,120 --> 00:51:53,680 Speaker 1: has sought to once again paint a large target on 823 00:51:53,719 --> 00:51:56,719 Speaker 1: their backs rather than report real and significant news in 824 00:51:56,719 --> 00:51:59,479 Speaker 1: our country. Yeah, why is this a news story? How 825 00:51:59,600 --> 00:52:03,680 Speaker 1: is this a news story? Well, because AOC tweeted it 826 00:52:03,719 --> 00:52:06,879 Speaker 1: out and may have ruined these kids lives because one 827 00:52:06,920 --> 00:52:09,359 Speaker 1: of them hugged, hugged a cardboard cut out of her 828 00:52:09,360 --> 00:52:10,920 Speaker 1: and kissed it on the cheek. I mean, they're not 829 00:52:10,960 --> 00:52:14,680 Speaker 1: even they're not even doing anything pornographic or you know, 830 00:52:14,719 --> 00:52:18,560 Speaker 1: this is not stuff that you know is way way. 831 00:52:18,600 --> 00:52:20,480 Speaker 1: I mean, the guy with the throat choke thing is 832 00:52:20,520 --> 00:52:22,520 Speaker 1: that's a stupid thing to do, and that's over the line. 833 00:52:22,520 --> 00:52:24,160 Speaker 1: But the hug of the kiss on the cheek thing 834 00:52:24,280 --> 00:52:29,480 Speaker 1: is you know, it's it's immature, stupid kids stuff. But 835 00:52:29,600 --> 00:52:31,440 Speaker 1: now all these kids in the photo, even the ones 836 00:52:31,440 --> 00:52:33,319 Speaker 1: that are just doing thumbs down. They didn't know. I'm 837 00:52:33,360 --> 00:52:35,120 Speaker 1: sure they didn't know their buddies were gonna at the 838 00:52:35,200 --> 00:52:39,200 Speaker 1: last second in this photograph, you know, grab and h 839 00:52:40,200 --> 00:52:42,120 Speaker 1: But this is what happens. You know, AOC has way 840 00:52:42,120 --> 00:52:47,759 Speaker 1: too much power and very very little wisdom. And does 841 00:52:47,800 --> 00:52:52,480 Speaker 1: she get called out for her supporters going after Mitch 842 00:52:52,560 --> 00:52:55,440 Speaker 1: McConnell in the middle of the night, you know, for 843 00:52:55,800 --> 00:52:58,960 Speaker 1: to do Democrats and their rhetorics saying that Mitch McConnell refuses. 844 00:52:59,000 --> 00:53:00,560 Speaker 1: I mean, this is how this all start at AOC 845 00:53:00,719 --> 00:53:04,040 Speaker 1: was saying, Mitch McConnell refused to take action on background checks. 846 00:53:04,120 --> 00:53:07,759 Speaker 1: Now that's why people are dying. Does that ever get 847 00:53:08,440 --> 00:53:11,719 Speaker 1: talked about? Is maybe a little too intense, a little 848 00:53:11,760 --> 00:53:17,160 Speaker 1: bit unfair to the geriatric Republican House Majority leader? Nope, 849 00:53:17,160 --> 00:53:19,760 Speaker 1: of course not. This is always a one way street, folks. 850 00:53:20,000 --> 00:53:23,640 Speaker 1: Republican rhetoric can lead to bad things. Republicans are responsible 851 00:53:23,640 --> 00:53:27,160 Speaker 1: for what anybody who's even vaguely associated with the right does. 852 00:53:27,719 --> 00:53:29,799 Speaker 1: Democrats just have to get out of jail free card 853 00:53:29,840 --> 00:53:31,520 Speaker 1: on this all the time. They get away with it 854 00:53:31,560 --> 00:53:34,920 Speaker 1: all Scott free AOC and all the rest. They can 855 00:53:34,960 --> 00:53:37,239 Speaker 1: say whatever, they will look at the horrible stuff they've 856 00:53:37,280 --> 00:53:41,080 Speaker 1: been saying for days now. They have no shame whatsoever. 857 00:53:42,160 --> 00:53:45,719 Speaker 1: Get pulled off the bus after school one day and 858 00:53:45,880 --> 00:53:49,880 Speaker 1: apparently he had made a kill list, and I happened 859 00:53:49,880 --> 00:53:52,520 Speaker 1: to be on it. I don't know why. I look 860 00:53:52,600 --> 00:53:55,880 Speaker 1: up and there's two police officers standing on the bus 861 00:53:56,400 --> 00:53:58,640 Speaker 1: asking him to get off the bus and go with them. 862 00:53:58,840 --> 00:54:01,680 Speaker 1: David Partridge was an other former high school classmate of 863 00:54:01,680 --> 00:54:04,479 Speaker 1: the government. He says when a friend told him about 864 00:54:04,480 --> 00:54:07,840 Speaker 1: the kill list and disturbing text messages about hurting people, 865 00:54:08,280 --> 00:54:10,880 Speaker 1: they both went to the police. This guy could go 866 00:54:10,920 --> 00:54:13,319 Speaker 1: to the school, he could kill people, he could hurt 867 00:54:13,360 --> 00:54:16,640 Speaker 1: my family, he could hurt you. So you were concerned 868 00:54:16,719 --> 00:54:20,400 Speaker 1: he was a school shooter back then. Absolutely. She contacted 869 00:54:20,440 --> 00:54:22,400 Speaker 1: the police along with her parents. I got off the 870 00:54:22,400 --> 00:54:25,680 Speaker 1: phone with her. I contacted the police along with my father. 871 00:54:27,560 --> 00:54:33,400 Speaker 1: There you have students who alerted police about the Dayton, 872 00:54:33,560 --> 00:54:38,720 Speaker 1: Ohio mass shooter explaining what they're what they're very understandable 873 00:54:38,760 --> 00:54:41,320 Speaker 1: concerns were and that they did take action, that the 874 00:54:41,320 --> 00:54:46,920 Speaker 1: police were notified. Now we get into a difficult part 875 00:54:46,920 --> 00:54:54,600 Speaker 1: of the conversation when we are trying to rely and 876 00:54:54,680 --> 00:54:59,759 Speaker 1: when we were returning to police. At this stage, there 877 00:54:59,840 --> 00:55:03,600 Speaker 1: was already been a societal failure. There's already been a 878 00:55:03,600 --> 00:55:09,520 Speaker 1: failure of parenting, of community, of you name it. I mean, 879 00:55:09,560 --> 00:55:11,440 Speaker 1: I don't know if it's if all of the above 880 00:55:11,520 --> 00:55:14,600 Speaker 1: were just some of it. But once you have a 881 00:55:15,000 --> 00:55:18,120 Speaker 1: person who is of high school age who is making 882 00:55:18,160 --> 00:55:20,560 Speaker 1: lists of people he says he wants to kill, there's 883 00:55:20,600 --> 00:55:24,160 Speaker 1: obviously already been a whole lot that has gone on 884 00:55:24,880 --> 00:55:28,840 Speaker 1: that was very damaging and that has not sufficiently addressed 885 00:55:28,840 --> 00:55:33,480 Speaker 1: this person of this person's problems, whether they are mental 886 00:55:33,480 --> 00:55:37,320 Speaker 1: health related or you know whatever, you know, they're ideologically based, 887 00:55:37,320 --> 00:55:41,040 Speaker 1: whatever it may be, because now you're going to have 888 00:55:41,080 --> 00:55:46,080 Speaker 1: everyone say, well, what what can we do? What should 889 00:55:46,080 --> 00:55:48,480 Speaker 1: police do? Next time around? This came up also, and 890 00:55:49,040 --> 00:55:51,759 Speaker 1: with the Marjorie Stoneman Douglas shooter. This has come up 891 00:55:51,800 --> 00:55:56,399 Speaker 1: with other shooters who weren't just putting red flags out there. 892 00:55:56,440 --> 00:55:58,480 Speaker 1: There were more or less standing on top of a 893 00:55:58,520 --> 00:56:02,080 Speaker 1: building waiving a red flag and yelling over a bullhorn, 894 00:56:02,120 --> 00:56:06,719 Speaker 1: I'm a threat. But when you pass legislation that allows 895 00:56:06,840 --> 00:56:11,680 Speaker 1: for what, the incarceration of somebody who has not yet 896 00:56:11,760 --> 00:56:15,320 Speaker 1: done anything, they'd have to have the ability to prove 897 00:56:15,520 --> 00:56:17,399 Speaker 1: the law enforcement would have to be able to say 898 00:56:17,400 --> 00:56:23,200 Speaker 1: that this person was involved in a conspiracy, a conspiracy 899 00:56:23,280 --> 00:56:27,520 Speaker 1: to involve, you know, to take life, a conspiracy to 900 00:56:28,640 --> 00:56:31,879 Speaker 1: conduct a mass shooting. And you don't have to be 901 00:56:32,680 --> 00:56:34,600 Speaker 1: a brilliant lawyer to think of the ways that you 902 00:56:34,600 --> 00:56:38,160 Speaker 1: would defend against that, and you don't have to be 903 00:56:38,400 --> 00:56:42,880 Speaker 1: a conspiracy theorist to think that that could very easily 904 00:56:43,800 --> 00:56:47,680 Speaker 1: be abused. And this has become a way that people 905 00:56:47,719 --> 00:56:51,280 Speaker 1: settle scores with each other. That it also will limit 906 00:56:51,440 --> 00:56:54,640 Speaker 1: the willingness of any one individual to seek certain mental 907 00:56:54,680 --> 00:56:59,160 Speaker 1: health treatment for fear of being handed over to the 908 00:56:59,200 --> 00:57:02,120 Speaker 1: hand it over to the lease and treated like they 909 00:57:02,120 --> 00:57:04,239 Speaker 1: are a threat when they should not be. I mean, 910 00:57:04,239 --> 00:57:06,120 Speaker 1: these are all the very This is why the mental 911 00:57:06,120 --> 00:57:09,600 Speaker 1: health component is very complicated. But even the policing part 912 00:57:09,640 --> 00:57:16,040 Speaker 1: of this is very complicated. There's a study that's in 913 00:57:16,080 --> 00:57:19,640 Speaker 1: the National Institute of Justice that you can you can 914 00:57:19,680 --> 00:57:21,360 Speaker 1: pull up if you like, you can read where they 915 00:57:21,360 --> 00:57:27,520 Speaker 1: looked at all of the different mass shooting cases stretching 916 00:57:27,560 --> 00:57:30,400 Speaker 1: back I think for about ten years and more or 917 00:57:30,480 --> 00:57:33,840 Speaker 1: less crunch the numbers on it, and they created a 918 00:57:33,920 --> 00:57:38,120 Speaker 1: model of radicalization to terrorism among lone wolves. Here's what's 919 00:57:38,160 --> 00:57:44,280 Speaker 1: on it. Personal and political grievances. Affinity with online sympathizers 920 00:57:44,360 --> 00:57:48,760 Speaker 1: or extremist groups comes next. Then it is finding an enabler. 921 00:57:49,400 --> 00:57:54,360 Speaker 1: Then it is broadcasting intent, followed by triggering event, and 922 00:57:54,400 --> 00:58:00,760 Speaker 1: then terrorism. Those are present in a majority. In some cases, 923 00:58:00,760 --> 00:58:05,360 Speaker 1: a vast majority of lone wolf radicalization case is irrespective 924 00:58:05,400 --> 00:58:10,800 Speaker 1: of what the specific ideology maybe. But I look at 925 00:58:10,840 --> 00:58:13,760 Speaker 1: this and it reminds me very much of the geehotization 926 00:58:15,480 --> 00:58:17,440 Speaker 1: chart that we used to work from at the NYPD 927 00:58:17,560 --> 00:58:26,480 Speaker 1: Intelligence Division that had self identification, pre radicalization, radicalization and 928 00:58:26,520 --> 00:58:32,560 Speaker 1: in doctrin indoctrination and then geehotization, which is really just 929 00:58:32,600 --> 00:58:36,760 Speaker 1: all a fancy way of saying someone is aggrieved. Someone 930 00:58:36,800 --> 00:58:40,120 Speaker 1: finds people that make them feel like they're able to 931 00:58:40,120 --> 00:58:42,280 Speaker 1: be powerful, and that tell them who the enemy is 932 00:58:42,320 --> 00:58:44,760 Speaker 1: and that they want to take action. They learn more 933 00:58:44,800 --> 00:58:53,280 Speaker 1: about it, they become ideologically brainwashed, and then they become 934 00:58:53,400 --> 00:58:58,800 Speaker 1: violent based on the brainwashed ideology that they have inculcated 935 00:58:58,840 --> 00:59:02,560 Speaker 1: in themselves. Now that's all well and good, I mean, 936 00:59:02,600 --> 00:59:05,720 Speaker 1: this is a framework for understanding these things. The problem 937 00:59:05,800 --> 00:59:09,320 Speaker 1: is that it's very hard to tell when someone's going 938 00:59:09,360 --> 00:59:12,240 Speaker 1: from one of these steps to the next, And what 939 00:59:12,280 --> 00:59:15,000 Speaker 1: action can you really take even if you think it's 940 00:59:15,040 --> 00:59:18,600 Speaker 1: going to happen. We do not yet have a pre 941 00:59:18,880 --> 00:59:22,800 Speaker 1: crime unit in this country. We don't have the ability 942 00:59:22,840 --> 00:59:26,040 Speaker 1: to lock somebody up for what we think they might do. 943 00:59:26,600 --> 00:59:32,400 Speaker 1: And the moment you start involuntarily committing people, that sends 944 00:59:32,400 --> 00:59:36,520 Speaker 1: a signal across the mental health community that you know, 945 00:59:36,640 --> 00:59:38,920 Speaker 1: you better watch out how much you tell a psychologist 946 00:59:39,040 --> 00:59:42,720 Speaker 1: or psychiatrist about the problems, even if you're constructively trying 947 00:59:42,720 --> 00:59:46,720 Speaker 1: to deal with it and don't pose any imminent threat. 948 00:59:46,840 --> 00:59:52,200 Speaker 1: Perhaps the state of you name it disagrees wants to 949 00:59:52,200 --> 00:59:54,080 Speaker 1: take away your freedom for a while. And how do 950 00:59:54,160 --> 00:59:56,760 Speaker 1: you prove that you're not crazy once the state has 951 00:59:56,800 --> 01:00:01,160 Speaker 1: said that you are absent any wrong do or actual 952 01:00:01,240 --> 01:00:04,320 Speaker 1: proven threat. This is why you have to be very 953 01:00:04,840 --> 01:00:07,680 Speaker 1: there's a lot of nuance here. There's a lot of 954 01:00:07,760 --> 01:00:11,280 Speaker 1: competing goods. This is not just oh, there are evil 955 01:00:11,280 --> 01:00:14,240 Speaker 1: psychopaths running around, let's just lock them up. Yeah, we 956 01:00:14,240 --> 01:00:16,960 Speaker 1: could all agree on that, But how do we determine 957 01:00:17,000 --> 01:00:19,200 Speaker 1: who's an evil psychopath and who's somebody who's just crying 958 01:00:19,200 --> 01:00:25,400 Speaker 1: out for help, somebody who just wants attention needs, mental 959 01:00:25,440 --> 01:00:29,200 Speaker 1: health resources needs, time with a therapist, time on medication, 960 01:00:29,320 --> 01:00:32,000 Speaker 1: whatever it may be. And this is also where people 961 01:00:32,000 --> 01:00:34,920 Speaker 1: would point out that those who have some form of 962 01:00:34,960 --> 01:00:38,520 Speaker 1: mental illness, the numbers would show you, and I'm making 963 01:00:38,600 --> 01:00:41,200 Speaker 1: up the number here, but it's something like, you know, 964 01:00:41,280 --> 01:00:44,840 Speaker 1: point zero zero one percent of them are a danger 965 01:00:44,920 --> 01:00:47,320 Speaker 1: to the public because of their mental illness, or you know, 966 01:00:47,320 --> 01:00:49,600 Speaker 1: it might it's probably even less of a percentage than that. 967 01:00:50,920 --> 01:00:54,000 Speaker 1: It's a tiny, tiny fraction of people with mental illness 968 01:00:54,400 --> 01:00:57,640 Speaker 1: are criminally insane as how you could describe them, or 969 01:00:57,920 --> 01:01:04,680 Speaker 1: criminally mentally impaired. It's very very, very very small percentage. 970 01:01:05,120 --> 01:01:06,960 Speaker 1: So you're going to pass laws now to try to 971 01:01:07,000 --> 01:01:11,600 Speaker 1: get at that tiny percentage. There are risks here, folks. 972 01:01:12,160 --> 01:01:16,160 Speaker 1: There are problems that come with this, and we ask 973 01:01:16,200 --> 01:01:18,720 Speaker 1: a lot of law enforcement to be able to sort 974 01:01:18,800 --> 01:01:22,040 Speaker 1: through this, especially at a time when I will point 975 01:01:22,160 --> 01:01:25,880 Speaker 1: out law enforcement is not exactly being treated at all 976 01:01:25,880 --> 01:01:29,320 Speaker 1: that well, especially by the Democrats unless you're an FBI 977 01:01:30,120 --> 01:01:34,680 Speaker 1: or Intel person who was trying to trash Trump. Democrats 978 01:01:34,720 --> 01:01:36,760 Speaker 1: don't like you if you're in law enforcement. They don't 979 01:01:36,760 --> 01:01:38,960 Speaker 1: like local police, they don't like local sheriffs, They think 980 01:01:38,960 --> 01:01:41,280 Speaker 1: they're all racist, they don't like border patrol, their Nazi 981 01:01:41,360 --> 01:01:47,200 Speaker 1: prison guards, Democrats say crazy stuff, and yet you have 982 01:01:47,320 --> 01:01:49,200 Speaker 1: Governor Cuomo up in New York. You know, New York 983 01:01:49,280 --> 01:01:51,920 Speaker 1: is one of the places where you've had these videos 984 01:01:51,960 --> 01:01:58,680 Speaker 1: of young people throwing throwing water at police and then 985 01:01:58,760 --> 01:02:02,080 Speaker 1: laughing about it and really just being disrespectful and creating 986 01:02:02,160 --> 01:02:06,880 Speaker 1: a hostile environment for law enforcement on the streets. Here's 987 01:02:06,880 --> 01:02:10,600 Speaker 1: what govern Governor Cuomo says about this about the waterdowsings 988 01:02:10,640 --> 01:02:15,880 Speaker 1: play clip one. The police officers walked away and got 989 01:02:15,960 --> 01:02:21,439 Speaker 1: back in the car. That is wholly unacceptable. I don't 990 01:02:21,480 --> 01:02:24,720 Speaker 1: know how we're training police officers. How when you are 991 01:02:24,800 --> 01:02:33,080 Speaker 1: basically assaulted, and that's an assault, you retreat, okay, Governor Cuomo. So, now, 992 01:02:33,120 --> 01:02:37,360 Speaker 1: if somebody in the YPD tries to effect an arrest 993 01:02:37,440 --> 01:02:40,240 Speaker 1: on a bunch of kids who are a bunch of teenagers, youths, whatever, 994 01:02:40,320 --> 01:02:42,800 Speaker 1: who have thrown water at them, you're going to back 995 01:02:42,840 --> 01:02:44,360 Speaker 1: them up when they have to wrestle one of them 996 01:02:44,360 --> 01:02:45,760 Speaker 1: to the ground and maybe one of them gets a 997 01:02:45,800 --> 01:02:48,600 Speaker 1: scrape on their forehead. You're going to back them up 998 01:02:48,680 --> 01:02:50,920 Speaker 1: when maybe they have to pull out pepper spray because 999 01:02:50,920 --> 01:02:54,320 Speaker 1: they're mobbed by other people that are yelling and taunting them, 1000 01:02:54,440 --> 01:02:57,240 Speaker 1: yelling at them and taunting them. If I were in 1001 01:02:57,280 --> 01:03:01,800 Speaker 1: the NYPDI, I wouldn't have faith in Governor Cuomo. Nobody 1002 01:03:01,920 --> 01:03:06,680 Speaker 1: needs to take water dowsings in the face without reacting. 1003 01:03:07,600 --> 01:03:13,240 Speaker 1: Governor Cuobo would like you to take action against the 1004 01:03:13,400 --> 01:03:16,880 Speaker 1: water dowsers. I don't know if that's really a word, 1005 01:03:16,920 --> 01:03:20,640 Speaker 1: but Fuomo thinks it's a word. Yeah, we ask a 1006 01:03:20,680 --> 01:03:22,920 Speaker 1: lot of law enforcement. We essentially asked them to protect 1007 01:03:23,000 --> 01:03:25,960 Speaker 1: us all the time, to take a tremendous amount of 1008 01:03:25,960 --> 01:03:29,320 Speaker 1: criticism from the Democrats, and to sometimes be left high 1009 01:03:29,360 --> 01:03:33,000 Speaker 1: and dry if they make a mistake. Sometimes I think 1010 01:03:33,040 --> 01:03:34,840 Speaker 1: we ask a little too much of our law enforcement 1011 01:03:34,880 --> 01:03:40,600 Speaker 1: this country, or maybe we should just be Remember Jeter Struck, 1012 01:03:42,240 --> 01:03:45,880 Speaker 1: he was the kind that gave testimony on Capitol Hill. 1013 01:03:46,760 --> 01:03:50,400 Speaker 1: Sounds kind of like this, and he sends that he 1014 01:03:50,520 --> 01:03:54,200 Speaker 1: did nothing wrong when he was in the f mey 1015 01:03:54,720 --> 01:03:59,240 Speaker 1: and he was trying to stop Trump from being president. 1016 01:03:59,400 --> 01:04:02,120 Speaker 1: But yeah, remember that guy with the he had the 1017 01:04:02,160 --> 01:04:05,240 Speaker 1: whole Lisa page as lover who was an FBI senior 1018 01:04:05,280 --> 01:04:08,560 Speaker 1: FBI lawyer, and he had those text messages about how 1019 01:04:08,600 --> 01:04:11,560 Speaker 1: Trump is disgusting and how he could smell the Trump 1020 01:04:11,600 --> 01:04:20,480 Speaker 1: supporters and he did all of that on official FBI devices. Wow, 1021 01:04:21,720 --> 01:04:23,480 Speaker 1: let me tell you that the folks that I used 1022 01:04:23,480 --> 01:04:25,720 Speaker 1: to work with in law enforcement always knew and it 1023 01:04:25,800 --> 01:04:28,200 Speaker 1: didn't really have to ever get talked about that. If 1024 01:04:28,200 --> 01:04:30,880 Speaker 1: you want to vent about the bosses, or if you 1025 01:04:30,920 --> 01:04:34,560 Speaker 1: want to vent about anything, you either do it on 1026 01:04:34,600 --> 01:04:37,160 Speaker 1: a private device. But even then, I wouldn't put it 1027 01:04:37,200 --> 01:04:41,520 Speaker 1: in writing. You call from a private phone and you 1028 01:04:41,760 --> 01:04:45,880 Speaker 1: speak in real time, you don't write it down. You 1029 01:04:46,120 --> 01:04:50,880 Speaker 1: certainly don't write it down on government property, which is 1030 01:04:50,920 --> 01:04:57,000 Speaker 1: what these two did. I mean, it was astonishingly bad opsec. 1031 01:04:58,280 --> 01:05:02,160 Speaker 1: I mean the operational security here. It was terrible. And 1032 01:05:02,320 --> 01:05:06,919 Speaker 1: this is an individual who, Peter Struck specifically, was involved 1033 01:05:07,040 --> 01:05:14,480 Speaker 1: in three of the most politically sensitive FBI involved incidents 1034 01:05:14,520 --> 01:05:19,360 Speaker 1: of the Trump era, really of my lifetime. Okay, Peter 1035 01:05:19,440 --> 01:05:22,000 Speaker 1: Struck was the guy who was involved in the Hillary 1036 01:05:22,040 --> 01:05:27,120 Speaker 1: Clinton email investigation, was involved in the what was one 1037 01:05:27,160 --> 01:05:29,640 Speaker 1: of the agents who sat down to speak to General 1038 01:05:29,680 --> 01:05:34,520 Speaker 1: Michael Flynn on assignment from Sally Yates in a in 1039 01:05:34,600 --> 01:05:41,960 Speaker 1: a left wing just a left wing partisan attack maneuver, 1040 01:05:42,160 --> 01:05:44,240 Speaker 1: which is what that was. Just find some way to 1041 01:05:44,720 --> 01:05:47,040 Speaker 1: mess up Trump's people. I mean, Sally Yates is the worst. 1042 01:05:47,040 --> 01:05:51,040 Speaker 1: I mean, these these people are the worst abusing their 1043 01:05:51,080 --> 01:05:56,320 Speaker 1: government power because they have Trump's arrangement syndrome. And you 1044 01:05:56,160 --> 01:05:59,280 Speaker 1: know you've got Yates, uh, you know, sending him to 1045 01:05:59,320 --> 01:06:04,360 Speaker 1: do the interview you with Michael Flynn, and then you 1046 01:06:04,520 --> 01:06:09,600 Speaker 1: have Struck also involved at the latter stage or at 1047 01:06:09,680 --> 01:06:15,240 Speaker 1: the at the stages of the investigation, the FBI investigation 1048 01:06:15,280 --> 01:06:19,080 Speaker 1: of Russia collusion. So this guy isn't just someone who 1049 01:06:19,120 --> 01:06:22,400 Speaker 1: happens to work at the FBI. He's someone who is, 1050 01:06:22,760 --> 01:06:25,400 Speaker 1: like Forrest Gump, involved in some of the most important 1051 01:06:25,400 --> 01:06:28,640 Speaker 1: events in events in the history of that organization. Just 1052 01:06:28,720 --> 01:06:31,400 Speaker 1: happens to be there, right, just happens to be involved 1053 01:06:31,400 --> 01:06:36,760 Speaker 1: in these different things, and we're told that it's not 1054 01:06:36,840 --> 01:06:42,440 Speaker 1: a big well. Rather, he's now filed suit claiming that 1055 01:06:42,520 --> 01:06:45,080 Speaker 1: he should be reinstated, that he should have back pay, 1056 01:06:45,640 --> 01:06:47,840 Speaker 1: and that the only reason he was fired was the 1057 01:06:47,840 --> 01:06:50,680 Speaker 1: political pressure brought by Trump and his allies against him. 1058 01:06:50,680 --> 01:06:56,520 Speaker 1: One he's at the FBI. I just have to say, 1059 01:06:56,520 --> 01:07:01,320 Speaker 1: you know, the FBI really needs a serious, serious house cleaning. 1060 01:07:02,400 --> 01:07:06,680 Speaker 1: And there are there were deep state folks at the top, 1061 01:07:07,520 --> 01:07:13,120 Speaker 1: Komy and Struck and Page and McCabe and you know 1062 01:07:13,800 --> 01:07:19,280 Speaker 1: who very obviously are are not chastened at all by 1063 01:07:19,440 --> 01:07:22,640 Speaker 1: what they did. That they do not feel any any 1064 01:07:22,720 --> 01:07:28,120 Speaker 1: remorse or regret for their hyper partisan abuse of power. 1065 01:07:28,160 --> 01:07:31,680 Speaker 1: In fact, they're self righteous about it. Look at Komy, 1066 01:07:31,720 --> 01:07:35,280 Speaker 1: they're sanctimonious about it. You know, they just decided, Oh, 1067 01:07:35,280 --> 01:07:41,520 Speaker 1: that's right, the the ohso evil Attorney General Bill Barr decided, 1068 01:07:41,640 --> 01:07:44,280 Speaker 1: who I think is great and fantastic in the role, 1069 01:07:44,760 --> 01:07:49,800 Speaker 1: that they weren't going to bring charges against Komby for 1070 01:07:50,000 --> 01:07:53,800 Speaker 1: leaking that memo, giving him effectively the benefit of the doubt. 1071 01:07:53,840 --> 01:07:57,520 Speaker 1: And then some remember, even the decision to charge would 1072 01:07:57,520 --> 01:08:01,560 Speaker 1: be smirched Komey's character, and and that would be a 1073 01:08:01,560 --> 01:08:04,560 Speaker 1: black mark on his reputation, even if he beat it 1074 01:08:04,600 --> 01:08:07,800 Speaker 1: in court. You know, the decision to charge is in 1075 01:08:07,880 --> 01:08:11,400 Speaker 1: and of itself damaging to somebody. So they're not charging him. 1076 01:08:11,400 --> 01:08:13,680 Speaker 1: They're letting comee me off. Oh, because I thought that 1077 01:08:13,760 --> 01:08:16,120 Speaker 1: Barr was so unfair and he would just do whatever 1078 01:08:16,160 --> 01:08:18,560 Speaker 1: Trump's bidding was, No, Barr looked at the law and 1079 01:08:18,600 --> 01:08:20,720 Speaker 1: he said, all right, on balance, we've got to give 1080 01:08:20,800 --> 01:08:23,200 Speaker 1: him the benefit of the doubt here with the leaks. 1081 01:08:23,360 --> 01:08:26,120 Speaker 1: Would I have done that, Probably not. But I think 1082 01:08:26,120 --> 01:08:29,160 Speaker 1: Barr understands the way the law applies, and I was 1083 01:08:29,160 --> 01:08:32,360 Speaker 1: trying to be honest about it. But now now you 1084 01:08:32,400 --> 01:08:34,479 Speaker 1: see that Struck wants to get back in action, and 1085 01:08:34,680 --> 01:08:37,040 Speaker 1: there's also he wants to go back to the FBI, 1086 01:08:37,160 --> 01:08:42,640 Speaker 1: wants reinstatement. And there's also the Judicial Watch report that 1087 01:08:42,680 --> 01:08:46,920 Speaker 1: came out of all of these leaks, lots and lots 1088 01:08:46,920 --> 01:08:51,280 Speaker 1: of leaks in twenty sixteen and twenty seventeen and into 1089 01:08:51,320 --> 01:08:57,120 Speaker 1: twenty eighteen, many many, many people people that were unidentified 1090 01:08:57,160 --> 01:09:02,920 Speaker 1: but were fired or were put on unpaidly for a time, 1091 01:09:03,080 --> 01:09:09,080 Speaker 1: or you know, getting serious slapdowns for leaking to the media. 1092 01:09:09,280 --> 01:09:12,160 Speaker 1: I have to say, I would wonder what those leaks 1093 01:09:12,160 --> 01:09:15,759 Speaker 1: were really about. Hmm. What was going on in twenty 1094 01:09:15,800 --> 01:09:21,160 Speaker 1: sixteen and in twenty seventeen that would make somebody risk 1095 01:09:21,320 --> 01:09:23,840 Speaker 1: their career and possibly even their freedom just to tell 1096 01:09:23,880 --> 01:09:28,280 Speaker 1: the media something. What issue would be so high profile 1097 01:09:28,400 --> 01:09:32,840 Speaker 1: and so contentious. M I wonder if there's anything going 1098 01:09:32,840 --> 01:09:37,880 Speaker 1: on politically in twenty sixteen and twenty seventeen. Ah, I 1099 01:09:37,920 --> 01:09:41,839 Speaker 1: think we all know what the answer is. This Inspector 1100 01:09:41,920 --> 01:09:45,160 Speaker 1: General report that's supposed to come out next month better 1101 01:09:45,240 --> 01:09:52,920 Speaker 1: be a just complete hot wash of all this nonsense 1102 01:09:52,960 --> 01:09:56,000 Speaker 1: that's been going on over at the FBI, because clearly 1103 01:09:56,000 --> 01:09:59,880 Speaker 1: what's happened so far, they don't accept that they're still 1104 01:10:00,000 --> 01:10:04,080 Speaker 1: fighting back. I mean, whatever accountability there has been, now, 1105 01:10:04,160 --> 01:10:07,519 Speaker 1: these whether it's McCabe or Struck or Comy, they all 1106 01:10:07,520 --> 01:10:11,439 Speaker 1: claim to be victims of Trump. They don't say, they 1107 01:10:11,439 --> 01:10:13,760 Speaker 1: don't say they failed, they don't say they apologize. Maybe 1108 01:10:13,760 --> 01:10:16,799 Speaker 1: they say they use some bad judgment and then victims 1109 01:10:16,800 --> 01:10:19,320 Speaker 1: of Trump. You know, I would just note that whether 1110 01:10:19,360 --> 01:10:23,479 Speaker 1: it's McCabe or Struck, they didn't want to give General 1111 01:10:23,479 --> 01:10:26,799 Speaker 1: Flynn the benefit of the doubt. You know, he gets ruined, 1112 01:10:26,800 --> 01:10:30,320 Speaker 1: he gets he faces criminal sanction, he faces the destruction 1113 01:10:30,360 --> 01:10:33,400 Speaker 1: of his reputation, loss of his job as National Security Advisor. 1114 01:10:34,160 --> 01:10:36,639 Speaker 1: I don't think these senior FBI officials should be getting 1115 01:10:36,640 --> 01:10:40,840 Speaker 1: the special treatment that they've been getting. Decades of Chinese misbehavior, 1116 01:10:41,000 --> 01:10:45,480 Speaker 1: decades of China not living up to its commitments, fundamentally 1117 01:10:45,600 --> 01:10:50,720 Speaker 1: stealing our intellectual property, engaging in forced technology transfers, discriminating 1118 01:10:50,760 --> 01:10:54,880 Speaker 1: against American and other foreign companies, and this behavior was 1119 01:10:54,880 --> 01:10:58,719 Speaker 1: accepted by the United States for far too long. We're 1120 01:10:58,760 --> 01:11:02,599 Speaker 1: planning for the Chinese to come here next month, and 1121 01:11:02,720 --> 01:11:05,720 Speaker 1: if there's a good deal or good progress, he may 1122 01:11:05,760 --> 01:11:10,639 Speaker 1: reconsider some things. But similarly, he has also said if 1123 01:11:10,640 --> 01:11:13,360 Speaker 1: there's no good deal in no progress, he may also 1124 01:11:13,439 --> 01:11:16,960 Speaker 1: reconsider some things. On the other side, the president would 1125 01:11:17,000 --> 01:11:19,760 Speaker 1: like a big win before the election. Doesn't have to 1126 01:11:19,760 --> 01:11:23,240 Speaker 1: worry right now, but the idea that it will be 1127 01:11:24,040 --> 01:11:26,920 Speaker 1: let's say anything more than one kind of win. I 1128 01:11:26,960 --> 01:11:28,720 Speaker 1: think it's going to go on until twenty twenty one, 1129 01:11:29,360 --> 01:11:32,479 Speaker 1: when I think that she's reign may be over. That's 1130 01:11:32,479 --> 01:11:35,240 Speaker 1: the hundredth year of the People's Republic of China, the 1131 01:11:35,240 --> 01:11:39,280 Speaker 1: Communist Party. And I think that this whole notion of 1132 01:11:39,320 --> 01:11:41,920 Speaker 1: invincibility was she is a little bit more made up 1133 01:11:41,960 --> 01:11:44,920 Speaker 1: by the Western president, and I think it's tiresome. I'm 1134 01:11:44,960 --> 01:11:47,360 Speaker 1: listening mister Wonderful, and I think mister Wonderful is dead 1135 01:11:47,400 --> 01:11:52,360 Speaker 1: right on everything because it's factual, it's empirical, and thank 1136 01:11:52,400 --> 01:11:54,479 Speaker 1: you for speaking the truth. I don't know how, why 1137 01:11:54,479 --> 01:11:57,040 Speaker 1: aren't you more fearful that the media will hate you? 1138 01:11:57,040 --> 01:11:59,000 Speaker 1: You know, Jim, I just have to fight it every 1139 01:11:59,040 --> 01:12:01,320 Speaker 1: day and I'm really tired of the last fifteen years. 1140 01:12:01,360 --> 01:12:04,519 Speaker 1: Finally an administration that's batting for the guy that puts 1141 01:12:04,520 --> 01:12:06,920 Speaker 1: his capital up there and gets screwed over over and 1142 01:12:07,080 --> 01:12:10,800 Speaker 1: over and over and over again. Enough already, let's fix it. 1143 01:12:10,880 --> 01:12:13,080 Speaker 1: I couldn't agree more. And that's exactly what's going on. 1144 01:12:13,200 --> 01:12:16,320 Speaker 1: Thank you for speaking the truth. It's really refreshing. A 1145 01:12:16,320 --> 01:12:19,000 Speaker 1: lot of different voices weighing in there on China. So 1146 01:12:19,200 --> 01:12:24,040 Speaker 1: you probably recognize Kramer from Mad Money, mister wonderful who am? 1147 01:12:24,040 --> 01:12:25,600 Speaker 1: I have an interview before, and I gotta say I 1148 01:12:25,960 --> 01:12:28,280 Speaker 1: found it to be a very very affable guy and 1149 01:12:28,720 --> 01:12:33,479 Speaker 1: smart than you had Bolton weighing in on this issue. 1150 01:12:33,479 --> 01:12:36,519 Speaker 1: You had Larry Kudlow, who's also very affable and smart guy. 1151 01:12:36,560 --> 01:12:39,320 Speaker 1: By the way, Bolton and affable, I don't know, I 1152 01:12:39,439 --> 01:12:41,880 Speaker 1: leave that to you. Does have a great mustache, however, 1153 01:12:42,600 --> 01:12:46,200 Speaker 1: I mean that is a that is a Walrus level ten. 1154 01:12:46,520 --> 01:12:52,719 Speaker 1: That's a serious mustache. But the Chinese are digging in 1155 01:12:53,200 --> 01:12:58,240 Speaker 1: for what looks to be a long term showdown over 1156 01:12:58,280 --> 01:13:02,479 Speaker 1: this whole trade war issue. And this means that if 1157 01:13:02,560 --> 01:13:09,160 Speaker 1: we have any real economic disruption in advance of the 1158 01:13:09,280 --> 01:13:12,759 Speaker 1: election of this could get this could get tough pretty quickly. 1159 01:13:13,720 --> 01:13:15,760 Speaker 1: Things could go south on us. We had one of 1160 01:13:15,760 --> 01:13:18,920 Speaker 1: the worst days in a long time the stock market 1161 01:13:18,920 --> 01:13:23,599 Speaker 1: earlier this week, and now there have been additional Essentially 1162 01:13:23,680 --> 01:13:28,760 Speaker 1: both sides have fired more shots across the other sides bows, 1163 01:13:28,880 --> 01:13:32,519 Speaker 1: so to speak. I think Kramer there said one hundredth 1164 01:13:32,560 --> 01:13:35,960 Speaker 1: anniversary or the People's Republic of China. That's actually the seventieth, 1165 01:13:36,040 --> 01:13:38,680 Speaker 1: So I think he just got a little it's all right, 1166 01:13:38,720 --> 01:13:40,360 Speaker 1: it's all right, Kramer. That's what Buck's here for to 1167 01:13:40,439 --> 01:13:43,839 Speaker 1: get the facts right. But he's referring to how Shijin 1168 01:13:43,920 --> 01:13:47,840 Speaker 1: paying the Chinese premier's planning a huge celebration for the 1169 01:13:47,880 --> 01:13:52,320 Speaker 1: seventieth anniversary of the People's Republic of China in October, 1170 01:13:53,560 --> 01:13:57,400 Speaker 1: and that means that he needs to show himself standing 1171 01:13:57,520 --> 01:14:01,439 Speaker 1: strong against any US or any Trump effort to try 1172 01:14:01,520 --> 01:14:05,880 Speaker 1: and bend him to America's will. So he's not going 1173 01:14:05,920 --> 01:14:10,360 Speaker 1: to want to budge on this. And as a result, 1174 01:14:11,680 --> 01:14:15,640 Speaker 1: you have some US measures going into place here, like 1175 01:14:15,720 --> 01:14:19,840 Speaker 1: the designation of China as a currency manipulator that just 1176 01:14:19,920 --> 01:14:26,320 Speaker 1: happened earlier this week. You also have the farm belt 1177 01:14:26,360 --> 01:14:32,639 Speaker 1: in America feeling the pain of China's tariffs on our 1178 01:14:32,680 --> 01:14:37,840 Speaker 1: farm products. You know, imports from China are getting hit 1179 01:14:37,880 --> 01:14:40,000 Speaker 1: with more punitive tariffs. I mean, you have a lot 1180 01:14:40,040 --> 01:14:45,519 Speaker 1: of back and forth here, but one thing that I 1181 01:14:45,600 --> 01:14:48,120 Speaker 1: have to say is and there are risks. There's no 1182 01:14:48,200 --> 01:14:49,880 Speaker 1: question there are risks here in folks. I mean this. 1183 01:14:50,640 --> 01:14:53,720 Speaker 1: I think this could be the issue that decides and 1184 01:14:53,760 --> 01:14:56,599 Speaker 1: I'm not sure in which direction, but that decides whether 1185 01:14:56,640 --> 01:14:59,160 Speaker 1: Trump gets four more years as president. I think this 1186 01:14:59,240 --> 01:15:04,280 Speaker 1: could be it. You may see a Chinese trade war 1187 01:15:04,439 --> 01:15:07,400 Speaker 1: be the determining factor because if things if we have 1188 01:15:07,479 --> 01:15:10,800 Speaker 1: a big essentially a recession, I mean a correction in 1189 01:15:10,840 --> 01:15:12,519 Speaker 1: the economy is a nice way of saying our recession. 1190 01:15:12,560 --> 01:15:15,400 Speaker 1: If we had into a recession here and the global 1191 01:15:15,400 --> 01:15:19,599 Speaker 1: economy starts contracting, then it's going to be much easier. 1192 01:15:19,680 --> 01:15:22,160 Speaker 1: Right now, all these all the Democrats have is Trump 1193 01:15:22,240 --> 01:15:25,800 Speaker 1: is a racist. Trump is mean, he's orange. You know, 1194 01:15:25,880 --> 01:15:30,439 Speaker 1: they don't like his hair. That's really what they resolve 1195 01:15:30,520 --> 01:15:32,880 Speaker 1: themselves too, because what are they going to say? All 1196 01:15:32,960 --> 01:15:37,000 Speaker 1: this prosperity and an economic dynamism is just is bad. 1197 01:15:37,120 --> 01:15:39,120 Speaker 1: I mean, they're going to root against the American economy 1198 01:15:39,120 --> 01:15:42,360 Speaker 1: because the American economy is doing very well. But if 1199 01:15:42,360 --> 01:15:44,120 Speaker 1: that were to change, then I think you're in a 1200 01:15:44,160 --> 01:15:47,360 Speaker 1: real position where you could see all of a sudden, 1201 01:15:47,600 --> 01:15:51,479 Speaker 1: this is the issue that over everything else. Because Trump 1202 01:15:51,600 --> 01:15:55,439 Speaker 1: also has pushed for this, this this isn't just a 1203 01:15:55,479 --> 01:15:59,280 Speaker 1: cyclical economic matter. Trump decided that he was going to 1204 01:15:59,320 --> 01:16:02,360 Speaker 1: hold the Chinese to account. Finally. Now I think that 1205 01:16:02,439 --> 01:16:06,360 Speaker 1: he's right, and he should get credit for being right 1206 01:16:06,479 --> 01:16:08,800 Speaker 1: on the merits the Chinese. And this is what mister 1207 01:16:08,840 --> 01:16:12,960 Speaker 1: Wonderful's talking about. The Chinese have been ripping off American 1208 01:16:13,080 --> 01:16:15,840 Speaker 1: companies and American investors as a result. Right, I mean 1209 01:16:15,880 --> 01:16:20,680 Speaker 1: the companies are funded by investors, So the Chinese have 1210 01:16:20,680 --> 01:16:22,599 Speaker 1: been ripping us off for a long time. There's really 1211 01:16:22,640 --> 01:16:26,600 Speaker 1: no question about that. The Chinese have been currency manipulators 1212 01:16:26,600 --> 01:16:30,320 Speaker 1: for a long time. The Chinese have been stealing intellectual property. 1213 01:16:30,400 --> 01:16:33,439 Speaker 1: They've been engaged in, you know, these forced transfers of 1214 01:16:33,439 --> 01:16:36,040 Speaker 1: intellectual property. That's when you partner up with them in 1215 01:16:36,160 --> 01:16:39,160 Speaker 1: China and to do for your business, to do work there, 1216 01:16:39,240 --> 01:16:41,839 Speaker 1: you have to give them your proprietary technology and access 1217 01:16:41,840 --> 01:16:43,400 Speaker 1: to it, and then they either just take it and 1218 01:16:43,479 --> 01:16:46,760 Speaker 1: use it or reverse engineered for their own purposes. All 1219 01:16:46,800 --> 01:16:53,080 Speaker 1: the cyber theft, the industrial and intellectual property espionage that 1220 01:16:53,160 --> 01:16:58,200 Speaker 1: has been going on for years, for decades now, without 1221 01:16:58,240 --> 01:17:04,519 Speaker 1: any serious pushback from the United States. This is now 1222 01:17:04,640 --> 01:17:07,920 Speaker 1: the first time where it seems that this is We're 1223 01:17:07,960 --> 01:17:10,559 Speaker 1: going to do something about this. But keep in mind 1224 01:17:10,640 --> 01:17:15,720 Speaker 1: some of the possible outcomes here you have the and 1225 01:17:15,760 --> 01:17:19,880 Speaker 1: this was discussed. I remember in the movie Not the 1226 01:17:19,920 --> 01:17:23,040 Speaker 1: Big Short, what's the other movie, Too Big to Fail? 1227 01:17:23,760 --> 01:17:27,080 Speaker 1: When we had the US economic near collapse in two 1228 01:17:27,080 --> 01:17:29,920 Speaker 1: thousand and eight, at least near collapse of the banking sector, 1229 01:17:30,880 --> 01:17:33,360 Speaker 1: the Chinese premiere there's this scene they play out where 1230 01:17:33,360 --> 01:17:37,000 Speaker 1: the Chinese premier says to Hank Paulson, who was the 1231 01:17:37,000 --> 01:17:42,600 Speaker 1: Treasury Secretary, that China and Russia were considering selling US 1232 01:17:43,000 --> 01:17:46,120 Speaker 1: treasuries at the same time on the market to essentially 1233 01:17:46,200 --> 01:17:50,680 Speaker 1: collapse the treasury market and send the US economy into 1234 01:17:50,760 --> 01:17:56,280 Speaker 1: into a spiral. Right, But that didn't happen. There are 1235 01:17:56,280 --> 01:17:58,600 Speaker 1: some who weren't wondering if the Chinese though, we'll do 1236 01:17:58,680 --> 01:18:01,720 Speaker 1: something akin to that going forward, even if it hurts them, 1237 01:18:01,760 --> 01:18:04,280 Speaker 1: They think it might hurt us more. You know, it 1238 01:18:04,320 --> 01:18:09,639 Speaker 1: would drive the yuan up. But that doesn't mean that 1239 01:18:10,760 --> 01:18:13,240 Speaker 1: they wouldn't be willing to do that. So that's one 1240 01:18:13,479 --> 01:18:17,000 Speaker 1: extreme approach that could happen. And keep in mind, there 1241 01:18:17,000 --> 01:18:21,360 Speaker 1: are also other possibilities. There are other outcomes here that 1242 01:18:21,400 --> 01:18:26,080 Speaker 1: we can't necessarily foresee. You had in this Wall Street 1243 01:18:26,160 --> 01:18:31,439 Speaker 1: journal piece today, she Yin Hang, a professor of international 1244 01:18:31,439 --> 01:18:35,639 Speaker 1: relations at Beijing's Redman University, give them this quote, which 1245 01:18:35,640 --> 01:18:41,960 Speaker 1: seemed a little bit on ominous. China is not just 1246 01:18:42,080 --> 01:18:45,880 Speaker 1: preparing for a protracted trade war, he said, but also 1247 01:18:45,920 --> 01:18:52,680 Speaker 1: an escalating conflict. Trump's actions have seriously agitated the Chinese leadership, 1248 01:18:53,040 --> 01:18:55,840 Speaker 1: who now realize there's no chance of reaching a fair 1249 01:18:55,880 --> 01:18:58,920 Speaker 1: deal with the US. Well, of course that spin at 1250 01:18:58,920 --> 01:19:03,000 Speaker 1: the end, But what is an escalating conflict? What does 1251 01:19:03,040 --> 01:19:08,439 Speaker 1: that mean? Nobody really knows. But Trump has taken this 1252 01:19:08,479 --> 01:19:10,360 Speaker 1: issue on. This is I think in many ways, this 1253 01:19:10,880 --> 01:19:14,080 Speaker 1: is on foreign policy and certainly on trade. This is 1254 01:19:14,120 --> 01:19:18,120 Speaker 1: his signature issue. North Korea, the missiles, the short range missiles, 1255 01:19:18,120 --> 01:19:19,960 Speaker 1: that missiles that were fired off. Look, I don't think 1256 01:19:20,000 --> 01:19:21,800 Speaker 1: Trump's going to end up getting a nuclear deal with 1257 01:19:21,840 --> 01:19:26,040 Speaker 1: North Korea, but we've traded nothing in the process. With China. 1258 01:19:26,120 --> 01:19:29,560 Speaker 1: We're facing down the number two power economically and militarily 1259 01:19:29,600 --> 01:19:33,320 Speaker 1: in the world, and we are suffering as a result 1260 01:19:33,400 --> 01:19:36,640 Speaker 1: of facing them down. If Trump doesn't come out on 1261 01:19:36,720 --> 01:19:38,400 Speaker 1: top of this at the end, there may be a 1262 01:19:38,400 --> 01:19:42,040 Speaker 1: political price to pay. I think that much is clear. Team. 1263 01:19:42,080 --> 01:19:46,160 Speaker 1: We haven't had bucks books in a while here to 1264 01:19:46,200 --> 01:19:49,519 Speaker 1: talk about. Not books that I've written, although that's coming 1265 01:19:49,600 --> 01:19:53,439 Speaker 1: up too. I have a book on the Democrat project 1266 01:19:53,520 --> 01:19:56,800 Speaker 1: to drag us all into socialism. That's the book. So 1267 01:19:57,479 --> 01:20:00,599 Speaker 1: it is in the process of being written, not as 1268 01:20:00,640 --> 01:20:02,839 Speaker 1: in I'm going to start writing one day, I promise, 1269 01:20:02,920 --> 01:20:06,439 Speaker 1: as in I think I'm about forty pages into it 1270 01:20:06,560 --> 01:20:10,320 Speaker 1: right now, so it's moving. It's moving along. We're gonna 1271 01:20:10,320 --> 01:20:12,200 Speaker 1: get to two hundred that'll be the first draft, and 1272 01:20:12,200 --> 01:20:13,720 Speaker 1: then we'll see where we go from there. But I've 1273 01:20:13,720 --> 01:20:15,599 Speaker 1: got another book that I wanted to talk to you about, 1274 01:20:16,000 --> 01:20:19,479 Speaker 1: and I will say this is the fastest that I 1275 01:20:19,560 --> 01:20:23,880 Speaker 1: have read a non fiction book in a long time, 1276 01:20:23,920 --> 01:20:28,720 Speaker 1: although I think Molly Hemingway and Carrie Severino's Justice on 1277 01:20:28,840 --> 01:20:33,360 Speaker 1: Trial book will be another one that I probably finish 1278 01:20:33,439 --> 01:20:36,639 Speaker 1: in two days. But this book is it's a little bit, 1279 01:20:38,040 --> 01:20:40,160 Speaker 1: a little bit older. It's been out for a couple 1280 01:20:40,160 --> 01:20:43,679 Speaker 1: of years now, and I knew a bit about the story, 1281 01:20:43,800 --> 01:20:46,080 Speaker 1: but I didn't know it in its entirety. The book 1282 01:20:46,360 --> 01:20:51,240 Speaker 1: is Bad Blood, not to be confused with the Netflix 1283 01:20:51,240 --> 01:20:54,000 Speaker 1: show Bad Blood, which is about the Risudo crime family 1284 01:20:54,760 --> 01:20:57,880 Speaker 1: Sicilian mafia crime family in Montreal, which is actually a 1285 01:20:57,920 --> 01:21:01,160 Speaker 1: pretty good show, as I've told you, pretty well done. 1286 01:21:01,240 --> 01:21:06,799 Speaker 1: The guy who plays the character who's really almost feels 1287 01:21:06,840 --> 01:21:11,280 Speaker 1: like a second coming of ray Leota from Goodfellas. He 1288 01:21:11,360 --> 01:21:13,800 Speaker 1: doesn't really excellent, He's got kind of an unusual name. 1289 01:21:13,840 --> 01:21:16,400 Speaker 1: He does a really excellent job. But Bad Blood the 1290 01:21:16,560 --> 01:21:22,360 Speaker 1: book is about Thronos. Now, this was very big in 1291 01:21:22,560 --> 01:21:28,320 Speaker 1: finance circles and in Silicon Valley startup circles when the 1292 01:21:28,360 --> 01:21:31,519 Speaker 1: story happened, and it spans about a decade or so, 1293 01:21:33,280 --> 01:21:36,800 Speaker 1: the whole tale. But I'm telling you it is remarkable. 1294 01:21:36,840 --> 01:21:42,080 Speaker 1: This woman, Elizabeth Holmes drops out of Stanford and says 1295 01:21:42,160 --> 01:21:45,080 Speaker 1: that she has this patent that she's writing and says 1296 01:21:45,080 --> 01:21:48,200 Speaker 1: that she has figured out a way to do blood 1297 01:21:48,200 --> 01:21:50,479 Speaker 1: testing on just a few drops of blood from your 1298 01:21:50,520 --> 01:21:53,360 Speaker 1: finger instead of a venous draw. You know the old 1299 01:21:53,439 --> 01:21:55,240 Speaker 1: what you think of the blood test? Right, you go 1300 01:21:55,320 --> 01:21:58,200 Speaker 1: in and someone sticks you in the arm with a needle. 1301 01:21:58,200 --> 01:22:00,719 Speaker 1: They draw blood out. Usually they draw a few tubes 1302 01:22:00,760 --> 01:22:03,880 Speaker 1: depending on the tests, and that's how we do it. Well. 1303 01:22:03,920 --> 01:22:05,840 Speaker 1: This would just be a little a little prick on 1304 01:22:05,840 --> 01:22:09,559 Speaker 1: the finger and then a home test that you could do. 1305 01:22:09,640 --> 01:22:14,479 Speaker 1: That was the initial theory. And what you read about 1306 01:22:14,479 --> 01:22:19,640 Speaker 1: in the book is that this woman then manages to 1307 01:22:19,760 --> 01:22:22,920 Speaker 1: essentially fake it until she thinks she's going to make 1308 01:22:22,960 --> 01:22:26,479 Speaker 1: it because the technology never existed, she never had it. 1309 01:22:27,280 --> 01:22:32,120 Speaker 1: And she brings on board these huge names, including George 1310 01:22:32,120 --> 01:22:35,880 Speaker 1: salt Schultz, the former Secretary of State. She brings on 1311 01:22:36,560 --> 01:22:41,320 Speaker 1: various Silicon Valley royalty, the best lawyers from Silicon Valley, 1312 01:22:41,360 --> 01:22:45,479 Speaker 1: the best you know, the best venture capital people in 1313 01:22:45,560 --> 01:22:49,080 Speaker 1: Silicon v She brings in all these different individuals, nobody 1314 01:22:49,080 --> 01:22:51,680 Speaker 1: with any expertise in healthcare though to be on the 1315 01:22:51,720 --> 01:22:55,120 Speaker 1: board or be an overseer position. She sells all of 1316 01:22:55,160 --> 01:22:58,160 Speaker 1: them on her vision and how this is going to 1317 01:22:58,280 --> 01:23:02,280 Speaker 1: change healthcare. This will help people live longer. You won't 1318 01:23:02,280 --> 01:23:04,760 Speaker 1: have to say goodbye to loved ones so early in 1319 01:23:04,800 --> 01:23:07,679 Speaker 1: life because these drugs, these tests will allow the drugs 1320 01:23:07,680 --> 01:23:11,479 Speaker 1: to be administered early enough to save lives. Quite a pitch, 1321 01:23:12,880 --> 01:23:18,880 Speaker 1: and she is a sociopathic fraud and it is amazing 1322 01:23:19,360 --> 01:23:21,559 Speaker 1: the stuff that she does, Elizabeth Holmes in this book, 1323 01:23:21,560 --> 01:23:23,200 Speaker 1: and she's a couple of years younger than me, and 1324 01:23:23,280 --> 01:23:29,000 Speaker 1: she's essentially my contemporary are close to it, and maybe 1325 01:23:29,040 --> 01:23:32,479 Speaker 1: even quite a few years younger than me, But she decided, yeah, 1326 01:23:32,520 --> 01:23:34,000 Speaker 1: she would have been what I think she dropped out 1327 01:23:34,000 --> 01:23:35,639 Speaker 1: in oh six, so yeah, she's four or five years. 1328 01:23:35,960 --> 01:23:40,080 Speaker 1: I mean, she was at one point a self made billionaire, 1329 01:23:41,720 --> 01:23:44,559 Speaker 1: a self made billionaire worth between four and five billion 1330 01:23:44,600 --> 01:23:49,040 Speaker 1: dollars on paper, never had a working product, never even 1331 01:23:49,080 --> 01:23:54,200 Speaker 1: had a working prototype of a product, and raised eight 1332 01:23:54,680 --> 01:24:02,160 Speaker 1: hundred million dollars from investors eight hundred million, astonishing. How 1333 01:24:02,160 --> 01:24:05,479 Speaker 1: could she keep this secret? Well, she claimed that it 1334 01:24:05,520 --> 01:24:10,639 Speaker 1: was proprietary technology, and she hired very aggressive lawyers, including 1335 01:24:11,040 --> 01:24:15,439 Speaker 1: David Boys, who was on the board of her company 1336 01:24:15,560 --> 01:24:20,920 Speaker 1: and was brought in as the hatchetman, to threaten anybody 1337 01:24:21,000 --> 01:24:24,920 Speaker 1: who was going to tell the truth about this company. 1338 01:24:25,040 --> 01:24:27,559 Speaker 1: And you might say, well, Buck, what's the big deal? 1339 01:24:27,640 --> 01:24:29,880 Speaker 1: You know companies come and go, rise and fall. Well, 1340 01:24:29,920 --> 01:24:33,799 Speaker 1: this wasn't a software company where they could fix the glitch. 1341 01:24:34,360 --> 01:24:40,880 Speaker 1: They were faking blood testing technology and giving people false positives, 1342 01:24:41,000 --> 01:24:45,840 Speaker 1: false negatives, knowing that their results were entirely unreliable. They 1343 01:24:45,880 --> 01:24:51,479 Speaker 1: convinced Walgreens and Safe Way to put all kinds of 1344 01:24:51,560 --> 01:24:56,400 Speaker 1: money forward for these testing centers. And at one point, 1345 01:24:56,400 --> 01:24:57,880 Speaker 1: and this is the real I don't want to give 1346 01:24:57,880 --> 01:25:01,080 Speaker 1: away all the best parts of the book. And her boyfriend, 1347 01:25:01,120 --> 01:25:03,920 Speaker 1: who is also the number two in charge of the company, 1348 01:25:03,960 --> 01:25:07,600 Speaker 1: who comes across like a sadistic lunatic. You know, a 1349 01:25:07,640 --> 01:25:10,760 Speaker 1: guy who got essentially won the lottery in the dot 1350 01:25:10,800 --> 01:25:14,120 Speaker 1: com era by being a part of a startup that 1351 01:25:14,800 --> 01:25:18,240 Speaker 1: had all this money that completely collapsed after he left, 1352 01:25:18,240 --> 01:25:20,680 Speaker 1: because it was just it was a fake. It was 1353 01:25:20,720 --> 01:25:26,120 Speaker 1: an inflated fake company, really, But what they decided to 1354 01:25:26,160 --> 01:25:31,640 Speaker 1: do was at one point hide all the results, sue anybody, 1355 01:25:31,800 --> 01:25:36,479 Speaker 1: threaten anybody with bankruptcy who was willing to speak about 1356 01:25:36,520 --> 01:25:40,120 Speaker 1: what was really happening. And they were going to run 1357 01:25:40,320 --> 01:25:48,080 Speaker 1: HIV tests with a technology that flatly did not work. 1358 01:25:49,640 --> 01:25:54,200 Speaker 1: Think about that, you're going to give people a false 1359 01:25:54,240 --> 01:25:58,040 Speaker 1: positive on an HIV test and not feel and knowing 1360 01:25:58,080 --> 01:25:59,839 Speaker 1: that you may be doing that and not feel absolutely 1361 01:25:59,880 --> 01:26:03,320 Speaker 1: horrible about it. It's an amazing book. And the people 1362 01:26:03,360 --> 01:26:06,800 Speaker 1: that gave her money, Oh, she was close with the Clintons, 1363 01:26:07,040 --> 01:26:11,360 Speaker 1: of course, Oh, her and Chelsea Clinton buddies. I mean, oh, 1364 01:26:11,520 --> 01:26:16,120 Speaker 1: of course, she courted all of Silicon Valley and Democrat 1365 01:26:16,160 --> 01:26:19,040 Speaker 1: Party royalty. It's one of the reasons why I think 1366 01:26:19,040 --> 01:26:22,280 Speaker 1: the federal regulators were so slow to act against her company. 1367 01:26:22,560 --> 01:26:25,360 Speaker 1: There's so much it is. Look, it's written by this 1368 01:26:25,400 --> 01:26:28,800 Speaker 1: Wall Street Journal reporter who's the guy who basically brought 1369 01:26:28,840 --> 01:26:32,160 Speaker 1: down the company by exposing it, This guy John Carrrew. 1370 01:26:32,960 --> 01:26:36,800 Speaker 1: It's the best book I have read in a long time, 1371 01:26:37,680 --> 01:26:39,640 Speaker 1: and so I would highly recommend it to you. But 1372 01:26:39,680 --> 01:26:43,120 Speaker 1: there's just so much in it. It's such a reminder 1373 01:26:43,160 --> 01:26:48,080 Speaker 1: of how people you know, you know everything you need 1374 01:26:48,120 --> 01:26:51,479 Speaker 1: to know about, accompanyed by how it treats, by how 1375 01:26:51,479 --> 01:26:57,080 Speaker 1: the boss's treat employees. You know that there are all 1376 01:26:57,120 --> 01:26:59,120 Speaker 1: these people that are held up as being so brilliant 1377 01:26:59,160 --> 01:27:04,800 Speaker 1: in society, and look, General Madis went to bat for 1378 01:27:04,880 --> 01:27:10,280 Speaker 1: Elizabeth Holmes. Saint Maddis of the Pentagon looks like a 1379 01:27:10,320 --> 01:27:13,000 Speaker 1: total clown in this book. I mean, Joe has no 1380 01:27:13,080 --> 01:27:15,760 Speaker 1: idea thinks that this woman is brilliant and awesome. I mean, 1381 01:27:16,080 --> 01:27:18,240 Speaker 1: that's another part of this that I just can't get past. 1382 01:27:18,720 --> 01:27:22,360 Speaker 1: She wears black turno X and black pants to mirror 1383 01:27:22,400 --> 01:27:25,800 Speaker 1: Steve Jobs, and she's effectively doing a copycat thing of 1384 01:27:25,800 --> 01:27:29,320 Speaker 1: Steve Jobs. She has this voice that people who worked 1385 01:27:29,320 --> 01:27:33,120 Speaker 1: with her claimed to know what's fake. Oh, I bought 1386 01:27:33,120 --> 01:27:36,439 Speaker 1: her as Elizabeth Holmes, and my voice's down here. So 1387 01:27:36,600 --> 01:27:39,640 Speaker 1: I mean she had this whole and people were transfixed 1388 01:27:39,640 --> 01:27:43,080 Speaker 1: by her and giving her millions and millions of dollars 1389 01:27:44,680 --> 01:27:47,240 Speaker 1: for a company that never had any peer reviewed data, 1390 01:27:47,280 --> 01:27:49,360 Speaker 1: a company that never had a product, that never had 1391 01:27:49,400 --> 01:27:53,000 Speaker 1: a patent. That this was a fraud. Now it's facing 1392 01:27:53,040 --> 01:27:58,000 Speaker 1: all kinds of it's facing a criminal fraud for criminal 1393 01:27:58,080 --> 01:28:01,200 Speaker 1: fraud charge, has already faced all kinds of sec sanction. 1394 01:28:01,280 --> 01:28:04,960 Speaker 1: But it's just an amazing book and that this could 1395 01:28:04,960 --> 01:28:08,400 Speaker 1: happen in this day and age. You have to really 1396 01:28:08,400 --> 01:28:11,320 Speaker 1: read it to believe it. And it's so thoroughly sourced 1397 01:28:11,400 --> 01:28:14,120 Speaker 1: and well done and well laid out for you. So 1398 01:28:14,240 --> 01:28:16,400 Speaker 1: Bad Blood by John carrierew It's been out for a 1399 01:28:16,400 --> 01:28:19,280 Speaker 1: couple of years, but I like to give you recommendations 1400 01:28:19,280 --> 01:28:22,440 Speaker 1: when they're really worthwhile. It's one of the best nonfiction 1401 01:28:22,479 --> 01:28:24,760 Speaker 1: books I've read in a long time. I've already recommended 1402 01:28:24,920 --> 01:28:27,919 Speaker 1: Justice on Trial for you with Carrie Savorino and Molly Hemingway. 1403 01:28:28,439 --> 01:28:33,040 Speaker 1: But Bad Blood is really excellent. I read it the 1404 01:28:33,120 --> 01:28:35,920 Speaker 1: flight out to la and the flight back. I finished 1405 01:28:35,920 --> 01:28:38,840 Speaker 1: the whole book. That's how much I liked it. So 1406 01:28:39,479 --> 01:28:41,920 Speaker 1: that's probably tells you something. I'll be right back. I 1407 01:28:41,960 --> 01:28:45,640 Speaker 1: wanted to do a quick update here on the Jeffrey 1408 01:28:45,720 --> 01:28:50,559 Speaker 1: Epstein case, which has completely disappeared from the headlines for 1409 01:28:50,840 --> 01:28:55,679 Speaker 1: understandable reasons, but nonetheless, my concern all along has been 1410 01:28:55,760 --> 01:28:59,960 Speaker 1: that somehow there won't be a full accounting, there won't 1411 01:29:00,040 --> 01:29:05,080 Speaker 1: be any real justice for not just the young women 1412 01:29:05,080 --> 01:29:08,559 Speaker 1: who were abused here, it's also a question of the 1413 01:29:08,600 --> 01:29:15,480 Speaker 1: American people understanding how our justice process was also undermined 1414 01:29:15,560 --> 01:29:19,800 Speaker 1: by all of this. There was clearly bad stuff going 1415 01:29:19,840 --> 01:29:24,200 Speaker 1: on behind the scenes. There's no way that Jeffrey Epstein 1416 01:29:24,240 --> 01:29:25,760 Speaker 1: should have gotten the deal he did, and so that's 1417 01:29:25,800 --> 01:29:28,080 Speaker 1: why I found it interesting to see today that Florida 1418 01:29:28,120 --> 01:29:33,040 Speaker 1: Governor Ron de Santis has ordered a criminal probe a 1419 01:29:33,120 --> 01:29:37,040 Speaker 1: criminal probe into the Palm Beach sheriff and state attorney's 1420 01:29:37,080 --> 01:29:40,720 Speaker 1: handling of the Jeffrey Epstein case from two thousand and eight. 1421 01:29:40,880 --> 01:29:46,719 Speaker 1: This is where you find the most inexplicable so far. 1422 01:29:47,880 --> 01:29:52,360 Speaker 1: Maybe we'll find out what really happened here, but inexplicable 1423 01:29:52,520 --> 01:29:58,080 Speaker 1: dealings by public officials, the Palm Beach County District Attorney, 1424 01:29:58,400 --> 01:30:01,439 Speaker 1: who was a Democrat. By the way, as much as 1425 01:30:01,520 --> 01:30:05,959 Speaker 1: we know that Acosta had to resign from his position 1426 01:30:06,160 --> 01:30:11,720 Speaker 1: as Secretary of Labor, there have been there's been far 1427 01:30:11,920 --> 01:30:15,599 Speaker 1: less attention on what should have been the slam dunk 1428 01:30:15,760 --> 01:30:20,280 Speaker 1: case of the Palm Beach County District attorney who decided 1429 01:30:20,479 --> 01:30:23,800 Speaker 1: not to push not to push charge. Look, I'll even 1430 01:30:23,840 --> 01:30:26,679 Speaker 1: say this right now. I'm actually and I could google 1431 01:30:26,720 --> 01:30:28,640 Speaker 1: it and look it up right away, but it's indicative 1432 01:30:28,640 --> 01:30:31,280 Speaker 1: of how much less coverage it gets that I don't 1433 01:30:31,720 --> 01:30:35,800 Speaker 1: have that district attorney's name in mind right now. I 1434 01:30:35,800 --> 01:30:37,200 Speaker 1: can't think of it off the top of my head 1435 01:30:37,920 --> 01:30:40,360 Speaker 1: because it's covered so much less. It's been such a 1436 01:30:40,400 --> 01:30:44,559 Speaker 1: smaller part of this, and he's the person who decided 1437 01:30:44,600 --> 01:30:46,720 Speaker 1: to do the that district attorney decided to do the 1438 01:30:46,880 --> 01:30:51,800 Speaker 1: work release to do the to not bring I mean 1439 01:30:52,000 --> 01:30:55,280 Speaker 1: the sheriff, the Palm Beach sheriff handed him what he 1440 01:30:55,320 --> 01:31:00,120 Speaker 1: thought was a slam dunk case of sex with miners 1441 01:31:00,960 --> 01:31:06,599 Speaker 1: child pornography, sex trafficking, all kinds of just horrible, heinous crimes. 1442 01:31:07,479 --> 01:31:12,160 Speaker 1: And for some reason, the Palm Beach County DA decided 1443 01:31:12,200 --> 01:31:15,240 Speaker 1: to or state's attorney whatever his designation is for Palm 1444 01:31:15,240 --> 01:31:19,120 Speaker 1: Beach County, but the prosecutor decided at the state level 1445 01:31:19,360 --> 01:31:23,960 Speaker 1: not to push charges. Why is that, folks? Yeah, I mean, 1446 01:31:24,520 --> 01:31:30,240 Speaker 1: Epstein's a big Democrat donor, but that's a lot to 1447 01:31:30,400 --> 01:31:33,000 Speaker 1: make go away. That's this is somebody who was willing 1448 01:31:33,080 --> 01:31:37,479 Speaker 1: to risk his career and certainly his good name and 1449 01:31:37,560 --> 01:31:41,559 Speaker 1: obviously at some level his integrity and maybe his soul 1450 01:31:43,000 --> 01:31:46,839 Speaker 1: in order to keep Jeffrey Epstein from facing real justice. 1451 01:31:47,200 --> 01:31:52,760 Speaker 1: There are reasons for that. Something happened. People brought influence 1452 01:31:52,840 --> 01:31:56,080 Speaker 1: to bear as is not conspiratorial, This is just obvious. 1453 01:31:56,439 --> 01:32:02,880 Speaker 1: I think someone brought against this Democrat prosecutor a lot 1454 01:32:02,920 --> 01:32:08,000 Speaker 1: of leverage, somebody who really had access and power and 1455 01:32:08,120 --> 01:32:14,400 Speaker 1: influence and was able to make this go away, such 1456 01:32:14,439 --> 01:32:16,840 Speaker 1: that if Epstein, you know, if you hadn't had a 1457 01:32:16,840 --> 01:32:19,840 Speaker 1: few things like the Miami or if you hadn't had 1458 01:32:19,840 --> 01:32:23,479 Speaker 1: the attorneys that unsealed some of this because the victims' 1459 01:32:23,560 --> 01:32:26,040 Speaker 1: rights law that was violated in this process, and then 1460 01:32:26,040 --> 01:32:29,799 Speaker 1: the Miami Herald investigation. Epstein would have gotten away with it, folks, 1461 01:32:30,320 --> 01:32:34,000 Speaker 1: he would have. He this guy almost got away with 1462 01:32:34,120 --> 01:32:40,120 Speaker 1: running an underage women human trafficking ring and pedophile ring. 1463 01:32:40,360 --> 01:32:44,240 Speaker 1: It's outrageous. So I hope Ronda Santists could get some 1464 01:32:44,280 --> 01:32:53,280 Speaker 1: answers here. The show ain't over yet, folks, keeping it real, 1465 01:32:55,520 --> 01:33:13,120 Speaker 1: It's time for roll call. All right, team, let's get 1466 01:33:13,560 --> 01:33:18,000 Speaker 1: let's get into it. Shelley Facebook dot com, slash buck Sexton. 1467 01:33:19,320 --> 01:33:24,719 Speaker 1: Let's jump into the latest roll call here, Hunter starts 1468 01:33:24,760 --> 01:33:29,320 Speaker 1: it off. Your segment on Fox News about guns and 1469 01:33:29,400 --> 01:33:32,720 Speaker 1: gun control was a refreshing take in today's climate. Thank you, sir, 1470 01:33:33,360 --> 01:33:35,439 Speaker 1: Thank you Hunter. Yeah, I was on Fox this morning 1471 01:33:35,439 --> 01:33:38,559 Speaker 1: and I did Tucker Show tonight at eight thirty. If 1472 01:33:38,560 --> 01:33:41,759 Speaker 1: you missed it, you can watch the replay at midnight 1473 01:33:41,840 --> 01:33:46,000 Speaker 1: Eastern time. So I'll be on at twelve thirty am 1474 01:33:46,040 --> 01:33:48,600 Speaker 1: Eastern time tonight if any of you happen to be 1475 01:33:48,680 --> 01:33:52,200 Speaker 1: up or if you want to set your DVR. But yes, indeed, 1476 01:33:53,760 --> 01:33:58,480 Speaker 1: Alicia Rights. Wow, first time I've ever been really disappointed 1477 01:33:58,520 --> 01:34:02,160 Speaker 1: in you. Oh do process and innocent until proven guilty 1478 01:34:02,160 --> 01:34:04,679 Speaker 1: are the basis of our country and our freedom. Red 1479 01:34:04,760 --> 01:34:07,640 Speaker 1: flag laws are the most egregious assault on the Constitution 1480 01:34:07,680 --> 01:34:10,400 Speaker 1: I have ever seen. It's seizing property from a law 1481 01:34:10,439 --> 01:34:14,000 Speaker 1: abiding citizen based on someone else's word without consequences for 1482 01:34:14,040 --> 01:34:15,639 Speaker 1: them for lying, and then the person has to prove 1483 01:34:15,680 --> 01:34:17,839 Speaker 1: that they weren't going to do something that they haven't done. 1484 01:34:18,160 --> 01:34:19,960 Speaker 1: Aren't you always going off? But how you can't prove 1485 01:34:20,000 --> 01:34:21,920 Speaker 1: a negative? So Buck, when was the last time you 1486 01:34:21,960 --> 01:34:24,879 Speaker 1: beat your wife? Question Mark? Isn't that always your example? 1487 01:34:25,080 --> 01:34:27,680 Speaker 1: Shame on you. My husband is a combat veteran with 1488 01:34:27,720 --> 01:34:30,760 Speaker 1: a diagnosis of PTSD after serving seven tours deployed with 1489 01:34:30,800 --> 01:34:33,480 Speaker 1: seal teams as an EOD tech. You know what terrifies 1490 01:34:33,560 --> 01:34:36,639 Speaker 1: him having his constitutional second member rights taken away because 1491 01:34:36,640 --> 01:34:40,040 Speaker 1: of his diagnosis a PTSD, which is exactly what people 1492 01:34:40,040 --> 01:34:42,360 Speaker 1: at these laws would do. I never thought i'd hear 1493 01:34:42,360 --> 01:34:46,240 Speaker 1: an anti constitutional position from you, all right, Alicia? First 1494 01:34:46,240 --> 01:34:48,120 Speaker 1: of all, see I do read. I think some of 1495 01:34:48,160 --> 01:34:51,800 Speaker 1: you think that I don't read the criticisms on this show, 1496 01:34:51,840 --> 01:34:54,280 Speaker 1: but I do as well. I read them on air 1497 01:34:54,360 --> 01:34:56,600 Speaker 1: as well as read them when they're sent in a 1498 01:34:56,600 --> 01:34:58,919 Speaker 1: few things, Alicia, First of all, I did say yesterday 1499 01:34:59,000 --> 01:35:03,920 Speaker 1: on the show that my concerns would be that somebody 1500 01:35:04,000 --> 01:35:06,800 Speaker 1: would have their Second Amendment rights truncated. And when I 1501 01:35:06,800 --> 01:35:09,559 Speaker 1: just say concern, it's a red line for me that anybody, 1502 01:35:10,520 --> 01:35:13,320 Speaker 1: for example, who had served in the military and had 1503 01:35:13,360 --> 01:35:16,559 Speaker 1: PTSD would have any rights a bridge you're taken from them. 1504 01:35:16,560 --> 01:35:19,679 Speaker 1: Just so you know, there are there are places already 1505 01:35:19,680 --> 01:35:22,120 Speaker 1: in federal law when you apply for a background check, 1506 01:35:22,200 --> 01:35:27,080 Speaker 1: for example, if you have you know they don't when 1507 01:35:27,120 --> 01:35:29,360 Speaker 1: they ask about mental health for background check stuff. My 1508 01:35:29,439 --> 01:35:32,000 Speaker 1: understanding is at least that you if you have a 1509 01:35:32,040 --> 01:35:34,880 Speaker 1: PTSD treatment, that's not something that is that is listed, 1510 01:35:35,040 --> 01:35:37,720 Speaker 1: or if it is listed, is not considered in adverse 1511 01:35:38,160 --> 01:35:41,000 Speaker 1: circumstances in any way, as it shouldn't be for somebody 1512 01:35:41,000 --> 01:35:42,800 Speaker 1: who's applying for your clearance has nothing to do with 1513 01:35:42,840 --> 01:35:46,960 Speaker 1: your trustworthiness or anything else. As for your concerns about 1514 01:35:46,960 --> 01:35:49,240 Speaker 1: red flag laws, look, red flag laws already exist in 1515 01:35:49,280 --> 01:35:53,400 Speaker 1: a number of states, and it's not due process free, 1516 01:35:53,479 --> 01:35:56,439 Speaker 1: or at least it shouldn't be due process free. You 1517 01:35:56,520 --> 01:35:59,240 Speaker 1: have to go before a judge, and the judge then 1518 01:35:59,320 --> 01:36:04,600 Speaker 1: does what's the equivalent of a preliminary injunction. Effectively, you 1519 01:36:04,640 --> 01:36:07,280 Speaker 1: would have to turn in your weapons. If a judge 1520 01:36:07,320 --> 01:36:10,080 Speaker 1: decided that you were a threat, and then you would 1521 01:36:10,080 --> 01:36:15,800 Speaker 1: have an option to try and get that overturned, or 1522 01:36:15,840 --> 01:36:18,120 Speaker 1: perhaps there would be a thirty or sixty day period 1523 01:36:18,120 --> 01:36:20,559 Speaker 1: where the order was an effect and then it would pass, 1524 01:36:20,600 --> 01:36:22,720 Speaker 1: and then that would have to be renewed. So there's 1525 01:36:22,760 --> 01:36:26,320 Speaker 1: a process involved here. Now I share your concern that 1526 01:36:26,360 --> 01:36:28,160 Speaker 1: this will be abused. And one of the problems that 1527 01:36:28,240 --> 01:36:31,479 Speaker 1: was raised yesterday, I believe by our friend Charles Cook, 1528 01:36:32,000 --> 01:36:33,960 Speaker 1: is that many of the states that have red flag 1529 01:36:34,000 --> 01:36:38,439 Speaker 1: laws are also very anti Second Amendment in general, and 1530 01:36:38,520 --> 01:36:41,200 Speaker 1: so they will use red flag they will abuse red 1531 01:36:41,240 --> 01:36:45,360 Speaker 1: flag laws. Keep in mind, though, Alicia, that there are 1532 01:36:45,360 --> 01:36:48,559 Speaker 1: already a lot of states that abuse restrictions on the 1533 01:36:48,600 --> 01:36:50,840 Speaker 1: Second Amendment in general. I mean New York, a state 1534 01:36:50,840 --> 01:36:52,760 Speaker 1: who's gun laws I know pretty well is one of them. 1535 01:36:53,320 --> 01:36:55,720 Speaker 1: I mean, in New York City, for example, you have 1536 01:36:55,760 --> 01:36:57,960 Speaker 1: to pay hundreds of dollars to get a premise permit 1537 01:36:58,000 --> 01:37:00,840 Speaker 1: for a handgun. It takes somewhere from three to six 1538 01:37:00,880 --> 01:37:03,440 Speaker 1: months to get it approved. You have to get fingerprinted 1539 01:37:03,479 --> 01:37:05,479 Speaker 1: at one police plaza, you have to go some other 1540 01:37:05,479 --> 01:37:08,080 Speaker 1: place to get the paperwork. They make it as difficult 1541 01:37:08,080 --> 01:37:10,479 Speaker 1: and annoying as possible just for a premise permit that's 1542 01:37:10,479 --> 01:37:14,080 Speaker 1: not for concealed carry. So there are abuses all over 1543 01:37:14,120 --> 01:37:16,720 Speaker 1: the place. Look, if you're asking me, what do I 1544 01:37:16,760 --> 01:37:19,920 Speaker 1: think really should be done in response, if I am 1545 01:37:19,960 --> 01:37:22,559 Speaker 1: in charge of everything, what do I think should be 1546 01:37:22,600 --> 01:37:27,000 Speaker 1: done in response to these two shootings? A thorough review 1547 01:37:27,040 --> 01:37:30,160 Speaker 1: of both cases, and then I'm open to hearing what 1548 01:37:30,240 --> 01:37:32,479 Speaker 1: could have been done to stop either one, and if 1549 01:37:32,520 --> 01:37:35,600 Speaker 1: there is an applicable law from that, that would be 1550 01:37:35,640 --> 01:37:37,519 Speaker 1: the law that I would want pass. But if there 1551 01:37:37,640 --> 01:37:42,680 Speaker 1: is no applicable statutory or law enforcement policy change, then 1552 01:37:42,720 --> 01:37:45,960 Speaker 1: I don't want anything to change, because we can't stop everything. 1553 01:37:46,120 --> 01:37:49,639 Speaker 1: And my position on this tends to be bad things happen, 1554 01:37:49,680 --> 01:37:51,920 Speaker 1: and there are evil people in the world. There's only 1555 01:37:51,960 --> 01:37:54,160 Speaker 1: so much we can do to make each other safe, 1556 01:37:54,560 --> 01:37:57,040 Speaker 1: and it is incoming upon us as individuals and as 1557 01:37:57,040 --> 01:38:00,639 Speaker 1: citizens to do what we can to keep ourselves safe. 1558 01:38:01,040 --> 01:38:03,240 Speaker 1: But the state is never going to grant you perfect security, 1559 01:38:03,280 --> 01:38:05,360 Speaker 1: and if you try for perfect security, you'll give up 1560 01:38:05,360 --> 01:38:07,800 Speaker 1: too much of the process. So I'm sorry that you 1561 01:38:07,840 --> 01:38:10,479 Speaker 1: were disappointed, Alicia, but I do think that you are 1562 01:38:10,640 --> 01:38:14,760 Speaker 1: oversimplifying or perhaps going much further with a position than 1563 01:38:14,800 --> 01:38:18,560 Speaker 1: I would. And keep in mind that President Trump himself 1564 01:38:18,600 --> 01:38:23,000 Speaker 1: has been supportive of at least considering red flag laws 1565 01:38:23,000 --> 01:38:26,000 Speaker 1: in different states, and the mental health component of this problem. 1566 01:38:26,120 --> 01:38:30,360 Speaker 1: So there's there's a tremendous pressure that we all are 1567 01:38:30,360 --> 01:38:33,839 Speaker 1: aware of to do something. But I do not agree 1568 01:38:33,960 --> 01:38:37,240 Speaker 1: that doing something for the sake of anything is a 1569 01:38:37,280 --> 01:38:40,800 Speaker 1: good idea. But see, Alicia, you can write in, you 1570 01:38:40,840 --> 01:38:43,320 Speaker 1: can light me up. You need to get hold me 1571 01:38:43,360 --> 01:38:47,680 Speaker 1: to account. That's fine. The buck is not perfect. I mean, 1572 01:38:47,720 --> 01:38:50,280 Speaker 1: for heaven's sakes, he speaks in the third person sometimes, 1573 01:38:50,400 --> 01:38:54,360 Speaker 1: what else do you have to know? Guy's got issues, Misty. 1574 01:38:55,000 --> 01:38:59,960 Speaker 1: President Trump will not be eligible for California's primary ballot 1575 01:39:00,040 --> 01:39:03,479 Speaker 1: unless he releases his tax returns under a new law 1576 01:39:03,560 --> 01:39:07,519 Speaker 1: signed by Governor Gavin Newsom on Tuesday. Can he really 1577 01:39:07,560 --> 01:39:15,879 Speaker 1: do that? What recourse do Californians have, Misty? I don't 1578 01:39:16,040 --> 01:39:18,880 Speaker 1: have a legal answer for you on this. I would 1579 01:39:18,960 --> 01:39:21,200 Speaker 1: like to just say no, of course you can't do that, 1580 01:39:21,240 --> 01:39:23,280 Speaker 1: but I'm not sure that's true. And I never want 1581 01:39:23,320 --> 01:39:27,000 Speaker 1: to tell you something that's not accurate. I can tell 1582 01:39:27,040 --> 01:39:31,320 Speaker 1: you that Gavin Newsom, who is such a slippery, slimy operator, 1583 01:39:32,240 --> 01:39:35,880 Speaker 1: said on TV well, I saw the clip of him 1584 01:39:35,920 --> 01:39:38,960 Speaker 1: today at least saying his law is not about stopping 1585 01:39:39,000 --> 01:39:43,280 Speaker 1: any one individual. This is about transparency for candidates for 1586 01:39:43,360 --> 01:39:46,920 Speaker 1: the state of California. You know this whole Gavin Newsom thing, 1587 01:39:47,000 --> 01:39:50,800 Speaker 1: and that's just a laughable that's a laughable lie. Right. 1588 01:39:50,800 --> 01:39:53,280 Speaker 1: We all know why California is doing this. We all 1589 01:39:53,320 --> 01:39:57,200 Speaker 1: know that they all have an obsession with getting Trump's 1590 01:39:57,320 --> 01:40:03,200 Speaker 1: tax returns. So yes, indeed, yes, indeed, let's see what 1591 01:40:03,240 --> 01:40:09,200 Speaker 1: we have here next. Greg writes Buck, I recently got 1592 01:40:09,280 --> 01:40:16,479 Speaker 1: married to a socialist whoa Greg. Best of luck to you, 1593 01:40:16,560 --> 01:40:19,280 Speaker 1: my friend. About a month into our relationship, we started 1594 01:40:19,280 --> 01:40:22,080 Speaker 1: talking politics and realized we were on totally different sides. 1595 01:40:22,760 --> 01:40:27,160 Speaker 1: Long story short. We have constantly hours long debates, but 1596 01:40:27,240 --> 01:40:29,200 Speaker 1: they always have been civil, and I promised we never 1597 01:40:29,240 --> 01:40:32,799 Speaker 1: get heated with each other. And with just basic facts 1598 01:40:32,800 --> 01:40:35,160 Speaker 1: and data, I have led her more to my side 1599 01:40:35,200 --> 01:40:37,719 Speaker 1: and have gotten her to denounce socialism and Bernie Sanders. 1600 01:40:37,800 --> 01:40:40,920 Speaker 1: Not all hope is lost Shields time, my friend. Well, Greg, 1601 01:40:41,000 --> 01:40:44,080 Speaker 1: first of all, I'm seeing a photo here of your 1602 01:40:44,160 --> 01:40:48,080 Speaker 1: new bride and a big pup, and both are absolutely 1603 01:40:48,120 --> 01:40:51,000 Speaker 1: lovely and adorable. So you've made great choices, my friend. 1604 01:40:51,479 --> 01:40:56,519 Speaker 1: And it's look, I have dated liberals. In fact, i'd 1605 01:40:56,520 --> 01:41:00,639 Speaker 1: say half of my girlfriends in life have been liberal, 1606 01:41:01,240 --> 01:41:04,800 Speaker 1: so I am no stranger to dealing with that. And 1607 01:41:04,840 --> 01:41:07,400 Speaker 1: I can tell you that as long as you're willing 1608 01:41:07,400 --> 01:41:10,479 Speaker 1: to have conversations with people rooted in respect and honesty, 1609 01:41:10,520 --> 01:41:13,920 Speaker 1: you can talk about anything, respect, honesty and the facts 1610 01:41:13,920 --> 01:41:16,439 Speaker 1: as much as you can. You can talk about anything, 1611 01:41:16,880 --> 01:41:18,519 Speaker 1: you just have to keep it in that place. And 1612 01:41:18,560 --> 01:41:20,760 Speaker 1: I think people can really grow together. And I will 1613 01:41:20,840 --> 01:41:23,519 Speaker 1: have you know that there are numerous people in my 1614 01:41:23,600 --> 01:41:29,120 Speaker 1: life who I haven't sought to convert them to conservatism. 1615 01:41:29,640 --> 01:41:32,800 Speaker 1: But I have some very close friends that, just over 1616 01:41:32,840 --> 01:41:36,000 Speaker 1: the course of knowing me and being around me, and 1617 01:41:36,040 --> 01:41:37,640 Speaker 1: I don't know if they would give me credit for this, 1618 01:41:37,760 --> 01:41:40,320 Speaker 1: but I will give myself credit for it, they have 1619 01:41:40,400 --> 01:41:44,439 Speaker 1: become much more conservative as a result. Some of them 1620 01:41:44,439 --> 01:41:49,040 Speaker 1: were liberals that are now that are now pretty center right, 1621 01:41:49,200 --> 01:41:52,960 Speaker 1: I think you could say, so I'm proud of that, 1622 01:41:53,160 --> 01:41:57,240 Speaker 1: to be honest with you. Scott writes in rather than 1623 01:41:57,280 --> 01:41:59,719 Speaker 1: wanting to know what kind of weapon these monsters are using, 1624 01:42:00,160 --> 01:42:02,519 Speaker 1: shouldn't we take a look at what kind of psych 1625 01:42:02,640 --> 01:42:05,920 Speaker 1: medications they're on? The CDC says the thirty eight percent 1626 01:42:05,960 --> 01:42:07,680 Speaker 1: of people in the US are taking some form of 1627 01:42:07,760 --> 01:42:12,160 Speaker 1: drug that can cause suicidal ideation, and young white boys 1628 01:42:12,520 --> 01:42:16,160 Speaker 1: are being prescribed rittlin, which is an amphetamine on a 1629 01:42:16,200 --> 01:42:19,559 Speaker 1: horrifyingly regular basis, which the CDC says will make them 1630 01:42:19,800 --> 01:42:23,480 Speaker 1: nine point six times more likely to have violent outbursts. 1631 01:42:23,960 --> 01:42:27,000 Speaker 1: While big pharma is a frequent target of Democrats, big 1632 01:42:27,080 --> 01:42:30,240 Speaker 1: education is literally given the power to demand young boys 1633 01:42:30,240 --> 01:42:33,360 Speaker 1: developing minds be author with rittlin simply because they don't 1634 01:42:33,479 --> 01:42:36,680 Speaker 1: behave and learn the way that teachers find easy. Love 1635 01:42:36,720 --> 01:42:40,320 Speaker 1: to know your thoughts on this, Buck Shields High Well, Scott, 1636 01:42:40,360 --> 01:42:46,080 Speaker 1: I'm not a psychopharmacology expert at all, so let's just 1637 01:42:46,120 --> 01:42:49,599 Speaker 1: start with that I know about these issues just from 1638 01:42:49,600 --> 01:42:51,800 Speaker 1: reading and from people in my life that I know 1639 01:42:51,880 --> 01:42:57,519 Speaker 1: that have had to deal with different mental health problems 1640 01:42:57,520 --> 01:43:01,080 Speaker 1: and issues that are on these drugs. I think that 1641 01:43:01,240 --> 01:43:06,679 Speaker 1: overwhelmingly these kinds of medications are They're really life saving 1642 01:43:06,800 --> 01:43:09,719 Speaker 1: for a lot of people. They give people their lives back, 1643 01:43:10,240 --> 01:43:12,439 Speaker 1: and I think we lose sight of that. For those 1644 01:43:12,479 --> 01:43:19,680 Speaker 1: who have extreme bipolarity, OCD, schizophrenia, many of these drugs 1645 01:43:19,920 --> 01:43:25,160 Speaker 1: let them be completely functional, normal and even happy fellow 1646 01:43:25,240 --> 01:43:27,599 Speaker 1: human beings, you know, in their day to day they're 1647 01:43:27,600 --> 01:43:30,200 Speaker 1: not stuck in misery. So that often gets lost in 1648 01:43:30,240 --> 01:43:33,920 Speaker 1: these conversations now when you're talking about putting people in 1649 01:43:33,960 --> 01:43:36,080 Speaker 1: the tens of millions, which is what we're talking about 1650 01:43:36,120 --> 01:43:38,880 Speaker 1: in this country on and of course there's a huge 1651 01:43:38,880 --> 01:43:40,840 Speaker 1: span too, right. I mean, some people have a little 1652 01:43:40,840 --> 01:43:42,599 Speaker 1: bit of anxiety and they take a little bit of 1653 01:43:42,600 --> 01:43:45,360 Speaker 1: something to help calm their anxiety, and it really has 1654 01:43:45,360 --> 01:43:50,479 Speaker 1: a pretty limited psychological effect beyond the neurological impulses of 1655 01:43:51,320 --> 01:43:55,559 Speaker 1: stress and suppressing that. But we are putting tens of 1656 01:43:55,560 --> 01:43:59,280 Speaker 1: millions of people on these mind altering drugs, you know, 1657 01:43:59,439 --> 01:44:04,599 Speaker 1: ssry s, NRIs and and those are just a couple 1658 01:44:04,640 --> 01:44:06,240 Speaker 1: of classes of them, and there's a whole bunch that 1659 01:44:06,600 --> 01:44:09,320 Speaker 1: I'm not even really familiar with. Are there going to 1660 01:44:09,439 --> 01:44:13,400 Speaker 1: be just like with any drug, with any pharmaceutical, are 1661 01:44:13,439 --> 01:44:15,960 Speaker 1: there going to be terrible side effects that affect some 1662 01:44:16,120 --> 01:44:19,920 Speaker 1: person or some people on the way, Yes, absolutely do. 1663 01:44:19,960 --> 01:44:23,200 Speaker 1: I think that on the whole these drugs are probably 1664 01:44:23,280 --> 01:44:26,200 Speaker 1: for ninety nine percent of the people who are taking 1665 01:44:26,240 --> 01:44:28,479 Speaker 1: them who need to be taking them. And I think 1666 01:44:28,560 --> 01:44:31,280 Speaker 1: maybe Scott that's where your particular concern is that we're 1667 01:44:31,360 --> 01:44:34,559 Speaker 1: over prescribing, right. I think that there. I think that 1668 01:44:34,560 --> 01:44:39,960 Speaker 1: that does psychoactive drugs, These these different medicines out there 1669 01:44:40,000 --> 01:44:44,759 Speaker 1: for antidepressants and things like that are our life saving 1670 01:44:44,800 --> 01:44:46,240 Speaker 1: for a lot of people. But do we are we 1671 01:44:46,320 --> 01:44:51,240 Speaker 1: over prescribing things like riddling? Possibly? It certainly seems reasonable 1672 01:44:51,280 --> 01:44:54,800 Speaker 1: to me. And remember there's really only a couple of 1673 01:44:54,840 --> 01:44:58,800 Speaker 1: generations to even study on this, so and there's more 1674 01:44:58,840 --> 01:45:02,320 Speaker 1: of these drugs in circulation being prescribed than ever before. 1675 01:45:02,479 --> 01:45:05,479 Speaker 1: So my answer, Scott is it's worth thinking about. And 1676 01:45:05,520 --> 01:45:10,840 Speaker 1: I don't have a clear, you know, irrefutable answer for 1677 01:45:10,920 --> 01:45:13,599 Speaker 1: you on this one. And unlike other people that do 1678 01:45:13,680 --> 01:45:17,080 Speaker 1: radio or podcasts, I don't pretend to know definitively everything. 1679 01:45:17,080 --> 01:45:19,360 Speaker 1: I always think that's so funny when I occasion I'll 1680 01:45:19,400 --> 01:45:22,519 Speaker 1: catch some other show where someone just like thinks they're 1681 01:45:22,520 --> 01:45:26,320 Speaker 1: a little a little answer machine for everything. Who really 1682 01:45:26,360 --> 01:45:28,479 Speaker 1: goes through life like that? I just think that's affront. 1683 01:45:28,560 --> 01:45:31,280 Speaker 1: I think there's a dishonesty to that, But it's okay 1684 01:45:31,360 --> 01:45:35,040 Speaker 1: to say you don't know. That's one thing I hope 1685 01:45:35,040 --> 01:45:37,040 Speaker 1: everyone learns from from this show, because something that I've 1686 01:45:37,080 --> 01:45:39,800 Speaker 1: learned sometimes the hard way. All right, team, we're gonna 1687 01:45:39,800 --> 01:45:41,280 Speaker 1: have a great show tomorrow because we have a great 1688 01:45:41,280 --> 01:45:44,200 Speaker 1: show every day.
