This is the Buck 2 00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:17,560 Speaker 1: Sexton Show, where the mission or mission is to decode 3 00:00:17,560 --> 00:00:24,560 Speaker 1: what really matters with actionable intelligence.

Yes, yes, yes, 6 00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:38,320 Speaker 1: it is the Buck Sexton Show. Michael Pelka sitting in 7 00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:42,440 Speaker 1: for my friend Buck Sexton. The Godfather is back. I'm 8 00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:44,320 Speaker 1: happy to be here, thrilled to be here. It's been 9 00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:47,760 Speaker 1: a while, but I'm back and I'm excited. It's Christmas 10 00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:51,280 Speaker 1: Eve Eve. It's just a couple of days before Christmas 11 00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:56,480 Speaker 1: in the weirdest year ever, literally the weirdest year ever. 12 00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:58,920 Speaker 1: I'm gonna try and get to as much as i 13 00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:03,120 Speaker 1: can as it relates to the weirdest year, plus some 14 00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:07,560 Speaker 1: information about the vaccine with my buddy doctor Michael Royson 15 00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:11,360 Speaker 1: from the Cleveland Clinic. We have our friend Tracy Beans 16 00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:16,280 Speaker 1: from Uncovered DC popping in and I have some questions 17 00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:20,440 Speaker 1: about the law as well as questions about the law 18 00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:23,080 Speaker 1: and how it relates to the vaccine. So we'll get 19 00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:26,760 Speaker 1: the opinion of my buddy attorney Wendy Patrick, and maybe 20 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:30,760 Speaker 1: a couple other surprises. The big news was about twenty 21 00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:36,000 Speaker 1: four hours ago when the President dropped the hammer on Congress. 22 00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:39,399 Speaker 1: The President came out and told the House and the 23 00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:43,320 Speaker 1: Senate how he felt about their COVID relief bill, and 24 00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:46,920 Speaker 1: I thought it was fabulous. It really is a disgrace. 25 00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:51,040 Speaker 1: It's called the COVID Relief Bill, but it has almost 26 00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:55,800 Speaker 1: nothing to do with COVID. Yeah, almost nothing, almost nothing 27 00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:57,880 Speaker 1: to do with COVID, especially when you look at the 28 00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:02,360 Speaker 1: pittance that was being for to the American people and 29 00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:06,760 Speaker 1: the President was not having it. Nine hundred billion dollar 30 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:11,560 Speaker 1: package provides hard working taxpayers with only six hundred dollars 31 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:15,000 Speaker 1: each in relief payments, and not enough body is given 32 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:18,720 Speaker 1: to small businesses, not enough, not even close to enough. 33 00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:22,079 Speaker 1: And all the pork projects that were shoved in there, 34 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:26,680 Speaker 1: all the little ornaments, all the little presents shoved under 35 00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:30,720 Speaker 1: this Christmas tree of a bill. It really was disgusting 36 00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 1: to me, and I'm glad the President made a point 37 00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:37,680 Speaker 1: of telling Congress exactly how he felt. I am asking 38 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:41,400 Speaker 1: Congress to amend this bill and increase the ridiculously low 39 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 1: six hundred dollars to two thousand dollars or four thousand 40 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:51,079 Speaker 1: dollars for a couple, And of course Nancy Pelosi and 41 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 1: Chuck Schumer and AOC and the squad all stood up 42 00:02:55,600 --> 00:03:00,560 Speaker 1: and cheered and said, yes, he's come over to our side. No, 43 00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 1: he didn't come over to your side. What the President 44 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 1: did was he came over to the side of the 45 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:10,800 Speaker 1: American people. Decide. He's been on forever. The President said, 46 00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:13,520 Speaker 1: he wants you to get rid of all the crap 47 00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:17,959 Speaker 1: in that bill, all the garbage, the pork, the ornaments, 48 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:22,000 Speaker 1: the presence under the tree. I'm also asking Congress to 49 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 1: immediately get rid of the wasteful and unnecessary items from 50 00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:30,520 Speaker 1: this legislation and to send me a suitable bill or 51 00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 1: else the next administration will have to deliver a COVID 52 00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:39,960 Speaker 1: relief package. And maybe that administration will be me. Maybe maybe, 53 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 1: I sure hope. So I'm still holding out hope that 54 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 1: Donald Trump will pull out this last minute Hail Mary, 55 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 1: and it looks like it's going to have to happen 56 00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:53,120 Speaker 1: on January sixth. But we'll talk to Tracy Beans of 57 00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 1: Uncovered DC about that. She's keeping an eye on all 58 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:04,120 Speaker 1: of the legal maneuvering around the last ditch attempts to 59 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:07,400 Speaker 1: point out the election fraud that so many of us 60 00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 1: believe happened on a wholesale level in that November third election. 61 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 1: By the way back to this bill, even a Democrat 62 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 1: like Tulsey Gabbard thought the six hundred bucks was a 63 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:24,400 Speaker 1: slap in the face to the American people. Six hundred 64 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:30,480 Speaker 1: bucks I'll tell you in Hawaii that in most cases 65 00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:35,800 Speaker 1: won't even cover twenty five percent of your rent. It 66 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:38,200 Speaker 1: is an insult and a slap in the face to 67 00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:41,200 Speaker 1: every single American in this country who is struggling because 68 00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:46,839 Speaker 1: of this COVID pandemic. It is it's an insult, and 69 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 1: I'm glad that both Democrats and Republicans are standing up 70 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:55,719 Speaker 1: and saying that it's an insult. More importantly, I'm glad 71 00:04:55,720 --> 00:05:01,120 Speaker 1: that people are pointing out that in this difficult time, 72 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:06,920 Speaker 1: we don't need ridiculous programs like the ones that they're 73 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:10,240 Speaker 1: funding in different parts of the world. The millions to 74 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:14,680 Speaker 1: rebuild a boat in Sri Lanka. The half a billion 75 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 1: dollars going to study the immigration problem in Central America. Gee, 76 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 1: why would people leave those countries and come to America? Oh, 77 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe because you propose bills that will 78 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:34,240 Speaker 1: also allow people here illegally to get checks from the government, 79 00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:38,839 Speaker 1: to get a check from me and from you. Maybe 80 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:42,159 Speaker 1: that's why they're now give me the five hundred million 81 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:46,240 Speaker 1: dollars to study the problem with immigration coming from Central America. Yeah, 82 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:49,720 Speaker 1: that's an easy one. That's a no brainer. People, I 83 00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:54,360 Speaker 1: don't understand these people. They're insane. They're insane. Now, spending 84 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:57,080 Speaker 1: is a big deal. Rand Paul put out the Festivus 85 00:05:57,120 --> 00:06:00,640 Speaker 1: Report today because in fact, it is Festivalus holiday for 86 00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:04,599 Speaker 1: the rest of us, and he points out a lot 87 00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:07,159 Speaker 1: of waste, fraud, and abuse. But you know, in this 88 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:11,240 Speaker 1: spending bill, there's just so much. Now Runt Paul is 89 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:16,839 Speaker 1: against giving checks to the American people. I'm saying, it's 90 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,920 Speaker 1: okay as long as we have told them they can't 91 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:22,479 Speaker 1: go to work. If the government has said you have 92 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:26,599 Speaker 1: to shut down your business because of public health, then 93 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:30,080 Speaker 1: we the people, the rest of the people have to 94 00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 1: help out those folks. That's exactly how that works. But 95 00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:36,800 Speaker 1: Rand Paul was not very happy about some of the 96 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:42,039 Speaker 1: proposals of giving money to people in this relief bill. 97 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 1: To so called conservatives who are quick to identify the 98 00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 1: socialism of Democrats, if you vote for this spending montrosity, 99 00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:53,600 Speaker 1: you are no better. When you vote to pass out 100 00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:58,239 Speaker 1: free money, you lose your soul and you abandon forever 101 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:03,800 Speaker 1: any semblance of moral or fiscal integrity. Now I understand 102 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:06,839 Speaker 1: what he's saying, but we're not exactly voting to pass 103 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 1: out free money. He's not going quietly though. If free 104 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:16,000 Speaker 1: money were the answer, if money really grew on trees, 105 00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 1: why not give more free money? Why not give it 106 00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 1: out all the time? Why stop at six hundred dollars 107 00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 1: a person, Why not a thousand dollars? Why not two 108 00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:31,720 Speaker 1: thousand dollars? Maybe these new free money Republicans should join 109 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 1: thee everybody gets a guaranteed income caucus. I'm not for 110 00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:39,960 Speaker 1: guaranteed basic income. I'm not supporting that, not at all, 111 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 1: not in the least. I don't think that's a wise idea. 112 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:45,960 Speaker 1: But I do go back to my original argument that 113 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:51,760 Speaker 1: if the government tells you shut your business, then the government, 114 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:57,119 Speaker 1: we the people, all of us have to help temporarily, 115 00:07:57,840 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 1: but we also have to get the country back on 116 00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:02,640 Speaker 1: its feet, in the country open again. Now the problem 117 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 1: here is these bills are so stuffed with all this 118 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:09,600 Speaker 1: other garbage, and Mitch McConnell promised us that these bills 119 00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:13,960 Speaker 1: would be smarter, leaner targeted. Didn't you metch No sprawling 120 00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:18,800 Speaker 1: left wing wish lest no unconstrained bailouts for state and 121 00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:24,280 Speaker 1: local government with no connection to COVID age, just smart 122 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:31,280 Speaker 1: targeted bipartisan policies. I'm not so sure about all of that. 123 00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:34,760 Speaker 1: I look at some of the some of the pork 124 00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:38,319 Speaker 1: in this bill, in both these bills, and I don't 125 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:43,640 Speaker 1: know how much is it qualifying actually for smart targeted relief. 126 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 1: It's bipartisan as long as those people want to get reelected. 127 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:51,560 Speaker 1: That's what that's all about. We have so much to 128 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:55,360 Speaker 1: get to today, so many, so many different things to 129 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 1: get to, including the fact that Joe Biden still is 130 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 1: really not answer in questions about his kid, nothing about Hunter. 131 00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:07,400 Speaker 1: And I feel sorry for the Doocey kid over at 132 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:11,720 Speaker 1: Fox who has been stationed outside of Joe Biden's office, 133 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:15,760 Speaker 1: outside of Joe Biden's home, outside of the the Center 134 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 1: on the waterfront Wilmington, Delaware, and he's constantly shouting his 135 00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:26,160 Speaker 1: questions only to be rebuffed. And yesterday Peter Deucy shouted 136 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 1: at Joe Biden and asked about Hunter and if if 137 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:35,520 Speaker 1: Joe Biden believes in fact that Hunter Biden and the 138 00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:41,600 Speaker 1: stories about him are just Russian disinformation. The answer is 139 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:56,599 Speaker 1: just astounding. Yes, yes, yes, man, You're a one horse pony. 140 00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 1: Thank you, thank you. I promise you my justice apart 141 00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 1: will be totally on its own making his judgments about 142 00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:09,680 Speaker 1: how Now there's a couple of interesting things there and 143 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 1: a couple of crazy things there because Joe Biden said 144 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:15,680 Speaker 1: something really ridiculous there. But he did say that he 145 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:21,600 Speaker 1: still believes that all of the allegations about Hunter our 146 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:27,880 Speaker 1: Russian disinformation. He still believes that, and maybe that's because 147 00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:31,480 Speaker 1: he watches MSNBC or CNN. And well, we will get 148 00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:35,599 Speaker 1: to the media shame for twenty twenty because there is 149 00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:37,800 Speaker 1: just so much media shame to go around. I've got 150 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:39,680 Speaker 1: some of the greatest clips of the year, my top 151 00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:44,839 Speaker 1: ten moments of media shame this year. But what in 152 00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:50,600 Speaker 1: the heck was Joe Biden saying to Peter Doocey, God Love, 153 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:59,000 Speaker 1: God Love you man, You're a one horse pony. What 154 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:03,680 Speaker 1: does that even? God love you man, You're a one 155 00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:07,960 Speaker 1: horse pony. I think he meant to go back to 156 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:12,240 Speaker 1: the other insult that he had, you're a dog faced 157 00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:14,960 Speaker 1: pony soldier, and he said that to a young lady 158 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 1: I think it was in Iowa when he asked her 159 00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:19,320 Speaker 1: if she'd ever been to a caucus before, and she 160 00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 1: said yes, and he called her a liar and said 161 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:27,680 Speaker 1: she was a dog faced pony soldier. Which I'm wondering 162 00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:31,160 Speaker 1: if a dog faced pony soldier is any different than 163 00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 1: what you're a one horse pony as opposed to a 164 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:42,480 Speaker 1: two horse pony or a multi I don't understand it. 165 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:45,080 Speaker 1: All right. I'm going to step aside for a moment. 166 00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:47,640 Speaker 1: It's Michael Pelka in for my buddy buck Sexton on 167 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:51,080 Speaker 1: the buck Sexton Show. A lot to get to tonight, Yes, 168 00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:56,160 Speaker 1: a lot to get to tonight, including the most horrific 169 00:11:56,559 --> 00:12:01,079 Speaker 1: embarrassing moments from the media in twenty twenty. We'll get 170 00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:03,839 Speaker 1: to it just around the corner on the buck Sexton Show. 171 00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:18,240 Speaker 1: Thanks for listening to The bus Sexton Show podcasts.

Welcome back to the buck Sexton Show. 174 00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:48,319 Speaker 1: Michael Pelka sitting in for my friend Buck Sexton and 175 00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:50,840 Speaker 1: happy to be here, thrilled to be here. Hope you 176 00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:53,600 Speaker 1: and yours are having a great end of the year. 177 00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:57,240 Speaker 1: I know it's a strange year, maybe the weirdest year ever, 178 00:12:57,640 --> 00:13:01,000 Speaker 1: but we have to make good happen when we can, 179 00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:03,720 Speaker 1: and I'm trying to have a little fun tonight as 180 00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:06,840 Speaker 1: well as cover the news of the day. For example, 181 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:10,320 Speaker 1: I want to poke fun at the mainstream media. Who doesn't. 182 00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:13,920 Speaker 1: It's just such a wonderful sport and there are so 183 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:18,360 Speaker 1: many opportunities to do so. This year, the mainstream media 184 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:24,800 Speaker 1: lost its mind. Trumped arrangement syndrome took over MSNBC, CNN 185 00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:29,800 Speaker 1: just totally swamped by the trump't arrangement syndrome, the hatred 186 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:33,959 Speaker 1: of the president, ninety plus percent negative in terms of 187 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:37,680 Speaker 1: story content, and then we find out that so much 188 00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:40,520 Speaker 1: of it was made up, so much of it was 189 00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:45,360 Speaker 1: Bravo Sierra. So with the help of Tom Elliott over 190 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:48,080 Speaker 1: at Grabean, a company that puts together a lot of 191 00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:51,720 Speaker 1: clips from the news, I have gathered what I consider 192 00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:58,560 Speaker 1: ten of the most egregious media moments from the past year. 193 00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:03,440 Speaker 1: Ten moments from the mainstream media that actually should be 194 00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:06,840 Speaker 1: in the Hall of Shame for twenty twenty and maybe 195 00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:10,400 Speaker 1: for all eternity. We might need longer than we have 196 00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:13,760 Speaker 1: tonight to get through all of this. Number ten comes 197 00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:19,120 Speaker 1: in with the January moment. We started off the year 198 00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:22,240 Speaker 1: with Donald Trump doing something amazing. The commander in chief 199 00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:27,720 Speaker 1: authorized the death, the killing, the execution of a terrorist, 200 00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:32,400 Speaker 1: a guy who has American blood on his hands, Costumed Sulimani. 201 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:39,120 Speaker 1: Remember that guy, Yeah, we killed him, graveyard dead. And 202 00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:43,680 Speaker 1: yet the mainstream media, well, they wanted to make this 203 00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:46,960 Speaker 1: guy a hero. They wanted to make him to be 204 00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:50,160 Speaker 1: some kind of a martyr. This actually went out over 205 00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:54,920 Speaker 1: the airwaves. Consum Sulimani was no ordinary general. The US 206 00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:58,080 Speaker 1: officially classified him as a terrorist, but in Iran he 207 00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:01,440 Speaker 1: was a national hero. He was a hero. He's regarded 208 00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:04,560 Speaker 1: as personally incredibly brave. The troops love him. I was 209 00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:06,440 Speaker 1: trying to think of somebody. I was thinking him to Gaul, 210 00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:11,360 Speaker 1: a smart, charismatic, ruthless, strategic and bold. His power made 211 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:15,960 Speaker 1: a running's proud and apparently his power made CNN and 212 00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:21,080 Speaker 1: MSNBC proud too. They love the guy. They called him 213 00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:26,800 Speaker 1: a scholar, a hero. Yeah, Anderson Cooper compared to Charles 214 00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:34,080 Speaker 1: de Gaul. It's embarrassing. And only more embarrassing was the 215 00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:39,040 Speaker 1: way that MSNBC and CNN treated the impeachment of the president, 216 00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:42,440 Speaker 1: which happened just a few weeks later. So, Donald Trump's 217 00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:47,560 Speaker 1: busy paying attention to the coronavirus which is breaking out 218 00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:53,160 Speaker 1: in China, and he's starting the Defense Production Act with 219 00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:57,800 Speaker 1: initiating Operation Warp Speed, which got us to the vaccine 220 00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:01,320 Speaker 1: which is currently being put into the arms of Americans 221 00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:07,920 Speaker 1: at an amazing rate, already eight months after he authorized it. 222 00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:12,560 Speaker 1: Not four years, eight months, just amazing. But no, the 223 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:16,360 Speaker 1: mainstream media was all caught up on the houses crazy 224 00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:19,800 Speaker 1: impeachment of the president, and they wanted to make that 225 00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:26,600 Speaker 1: impeachment into a religious event, a sacred event. You're watching 226 00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:29,720 Speaker 1: CNN special life coverage of what can only be described 227 00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:33,120 Speaker 1: as an historic It will be a busy historic day. 228 00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:35,120 Speaker 1: It was an historic day on Capitol Hill. This is 229 00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:38,480 Speaker 1: a historic day here in the nation's capital. Historic day 230 00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:42,560 Speaker 1: or another or another historic day. Yeah, this is history unfolding. 231 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:46,760 Speaker 1: There's a sacramental quality of this. There's a there's a ritual. 232 00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:49,520 Speaker 1: I'm so glad Chris used the word ritual, just the 233 00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:54,440 Speaker 1: ceremony of it, walking over delivering the articles of impeachment. 234 00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:56,960 Speaker 1: There is something almost religious to it. I think there's 235 00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:59,840 Speaker 1: also something about the sort of the excommunication aspect of 236 00:16:59,880 --> 00:17:02,760 Speaker 1: the thing that French and the French Revolution. I did 237 00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:06,080 Speaker 1: the guy getting his head taken off here the drum roll? 238 00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:10,879 Speaker 1: Why is there a drum roll? So MSNBC and CNN 239 00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:13,919 Speaker 1: looked at the impeachment of the president, even though it 240 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:17,040 Speaker 1: was based on a false premise on a phone call, 241 00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:21,320 Speaker 1: it was definitely partisan. MSNBC and CNN looked at this 242 00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:25,439 Speaker 1: as a religious moment, and for them, I guess it 243 00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:30,880 Speaker 1: is because they have replaced God with government, so when 244 00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:34,919 Speaker 1: the government does something this big, it's a religious moment 245 00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:37,760 Speaker 1: to them. I thought it was really kind of odd 246 00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:41,520 Speaker 1: and creepy, which is kind of how I described Chris Matthews, 247 00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:45,280 Speaker 1: even though he's not around TV anymore, odd and creepy. 248 00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:50,879 Speaker 1: That Matthews, the former altar boy at an insane asylum 249 00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:54,160 Speaker 1: when he was kid. That Chris Matthews talked about this 250 00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:58,639 Speaker 1: in terms of a religious event and then also talked 251 00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:05,199 Speaker 1: about beheading. So in his mind, this was an excommunication 252 00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:08,960 Speaker 1: of Donald Trump. And I'm not sure what kind of 253 00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:12,240 Speaker 1: fever dream he was having that would lead him to 254 00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:17,040 Speaker 1: believe that a beheading would follow the impeachment of a president. 255 00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:20,639 Speaker 1: But that was a sign of maybe dumber things to 256 00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:24,840 Speaker 1: come from Chris Matthews because he has another addition to 257 00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:29,639 Speaker 1: the countdown of the top ten media shameful moments of 258 00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:33,600 Speaker 1: twenty twenty. I have so many more to go. Oh yeah, 259 00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:35,720 Speaker 1: we're going to get to them all, so I have 260 00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:38,560 Speaker 1: to take a break. When we come back, I will 261 00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:44,159 Speaker 1: play you number eight. And oddly enough, it involves MSNBC again. 262 00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:48,080 Speaker 1: This time though they're not going after Donald Trump. They 263 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:51,880 Speaker 1: were feeding on one of their own, which is kind 264 00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:54,640 Speaker 1: of what they do all the time. Once they run 265 00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:58,720 Speaker 1: out of Republicans, they go after their own. We'll continue 266 00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:01,000 Speaker 1: here on the Buck Sex and Show with me Michael 267 00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:11,600 Speaker 1: Pelca sitting in for my friend Buck Sexton.

Michael 272 00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:53,600 Speaker 1: Pelca sitting in for my friend Buck Sexton. Happy Christmas, Eve. 273 00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:55,960 Speaker 1: Eve will be saying that all night. Just two days 274 00:19:55,960 --> 00:19:59,040 Speaker 1: away from Christmas and we're in the middle of doing 275 00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:01,439 Speaker 1: something that's a little bit of fun. We're having some 276 00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:04,040 Speaker 1: fun with the media. I'd like to point out when 277 00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:06,920 Speaker 1: the mainstream media is totally off base, and they've been 278 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:11,200 Speaker 1: totally off base for so long, it's just insane, and 279 00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:15,720 Speaker 1: some of the insanity deserves special recognition, and that's what 280 00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:18,719 Speaker 1: we're doing here tonight. It's the Media Hall of Shame. 281 00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:23,679 Speaker 1: My top ten most shameful moments from the mainstream media 282 00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:27,639 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty. And I'm not even talking about the 283 00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 1: way they called the election because that was just expected. 284 00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:34,359 Speaker 1: But you know, we're counting backwards from number ten to 285 00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:39,400 Speaker 1: number one. Coming in at number seven is a mainstream 286 00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:46,480 Speaker 1: media blunder from MSNBC. And this was unusual because MSNBC 287 00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:50,040 Speaker 1: did something we've only seen a few times before. They 288 00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:53,880 Speaker 1: attacked one of their own. Yes, they went after one 289 00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:57,080 Speaker 1: of their own because one of their own, a Democrat, 290 00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:02,040 Speaker 1: was threatening to upend the party's plans for who they 291 00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:06,480 Speaker 1: wanted to become the nominee. And they couldn't stop Mike 292 00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:10,080 Speaker 1: Bloomberg from spending money, so they can only mock him. 293 00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:13,760 Speaker 1: But in their efforts to mock him, they used what 294 00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:18,920 Speaker 1: could probably best be described as common core math. Math 295 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:21,640 Speaker 1: that just gives you a grade because you made an effort. 296 00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:28,240 Speaker 1: This happened on MSNBC's Eleventh Hour with Brian Williams. The 297 00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:30,520 Speaker 1: guy used to be the top of the network news 298 00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:33,680 Speaker 1: anchors until he put himself in a bunch of stories 299 00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:39,080 Speaker 1: that he was not in and conflated his history. And 300 00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:43,960 Speaker 1: so he's now relegated to the eleventh Hour on MSNBC 301 00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:47,760 Speaker 1: on a second or third rate cable channel. But this 302 00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:52,680 Speaker 1: actually happened. They went after Mike Bloomberg. Somebody tweeted recently 303 00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:54,879 Speaker 1: that actually, with the money he's spent, he could have 304 00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:57,680 Speaker 1: given every American a million dollars. Got it. Let's put 305 00:21:57,720 --> 00:22:00,920 Speaker 1: it up as great Bloomberg spend five million, adds US 306 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:04,239 Speaker 1: population three hundred and twenty seven million. Don't tell us 307 00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:05,800 Speaker 1: if you're ahead of us on the math, he could 308 00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:10,160 Speaker 1: have given each American one million dollars and I've had 309 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:13,679 Speaker 1: lunch money left over. It's an incredible way of putting it. 310 00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:18,520 Speaker 1: It's an incredible way of putting it. It's true. It's disturbing. No, 311 00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:23,520 Speaker 1: it's not true. What is disturbing is you bobos didn't 312 00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:26,919 Speaker 1: do the math. Nobody checked the facts, Nobody put that 313 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:30,520 Speaker 1: in their Bomar brain calculator to see if the numbers 314 00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:33,840 Speaker 1: added up. It's not even close. If you have three 315 00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:36,919 Speaker 1: hundred and thirty million dollars and you give everybody a 316 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:42,520 Speaker 1: million dollars, it's not thirty two billion or whatever Bloomberg 317 00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:45,159 Speaker 1: has in the bank. It's well beyond that. We're getting 318 00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:51,040 Speaker 1: into the trillions. People. But NBC and MSNBC, we're not 319 00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:56,000 Speaker 1: the worst. Those titles of being the worst the most 320 00:22:56,080 --> 00:23:01,239 Speaker 1: embarrassing media outlet this year, well seeing an MSNBC might 321 00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:06,959 Speaker 1: share the awards. Equally bad In seventh place was the 322 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:11,679 Speaker 1: mainstream media's coverage of the pandemic in the very early 323 00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:18,000 Speaker 1: days the pandemic, initially because Donald Trump was paying attention 324 00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:23,600 Speaker 1: to it, because Donald Trump was blocking air travel from Wuhan. 325 00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:28,680 Speaker 1: Remember we set up the blockade, the ban of air 326 00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:34,040 Speaker 1: travel from China, and Joe Biden called Donald Trump a xenophope, 327 00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:39,040 Speaker 1: a racist, and Nancy Pelosi and Bill Deblasia, we're telling 328 00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:42,720 Speaker 1: people you got to go to Chinatown and eat. And 329 00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:50,240 Speaker 1: meanwhile the mainstream media was telling everybody that this pandemic, 330 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:55,000 Speaker 1: this coronavirus, was not a problem. How each should Americans 331 00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:58,399 Speaker 1: be about coronavirus coronavirus is not going to cause a 332 00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:01,720 Speaker 1: major is the United States? How worried should the average 333 00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:05,880 Speaker 1: American be given these flu numbers when it comes to coronavirus? Right, 334 00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:08,600 Speaker 1: so the risk in this country is still deemed to 335 00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:10,960 Speaker 1: be low. Okay, that is the risk. You know, the flu, 336 00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:14,240 Speaker 1: it's already widespread in the US, and it really as 337 00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:17,919 Speaker 1: much more deadly, is it not? How worried should Americans be? 338 00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:21,639 Speaker 1: Should they panic? No, Americans do not need to panic. 339 00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:23,959 Speaker 1: There's an important context we need to keep this in, 340 00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:29,640 Speaker 1: and that is that the flu is more deadly. Yeah. Yeah, 341 00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:33,320 Speaker 1: So that's what they were all saying, CNN, MSNBC, all 342 00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:37,760 Speaker 1: telling us that we didn't need to worry about the coronavirus, 343 00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:41,480 Speaker 1: that the flu was more deadly, that anyone who was 344 00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:46,720 Speaker 1: actually worried about a flu coming out of China was 345 00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:52,879 Speaker 1: probably racist. You were a bad person. And then fast 346 00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:56,600 Speaker 1: forward just a couple of days later, maybe a week 347 00:24:56,680 --> 00:25:00,600 Speaker 1: or two later, and suddenly, because the word old Health 348 00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:04,440 Speaker 1: Organization a really bad group of people in bed with 349 00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:07,760 Speaker 1: China doing everything China told them to do, the World 350 00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:10,439 Speaker 1: Health Organization went, hold on a second, we got a 351 00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:15,119 Speaker 1: pandemic here, we got a pandemic. We better mock Donald Trump. 352 00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:20,760 Speaker 1: And so coming in at number six, the pandemic is 353 00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:23,919 Speaker 1: now a problem. So actually the virus has become more 354 00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:27,800 Speaker 1: dangerous because it can infect more people. It's more easily 355 00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:30,720 Speaker 1: able to take root into communities. So it's changing in 356 00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:34,160 Speaker 1: a worse way. This is going to be catastrophe, Bond catastrophe. 357 00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:37,680 Speaker 1: And Trump wrote on Twitter, don't be afraid of COVID, 358 00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:39,640 Speaker 1: don't let it dominate your life. What does that mean? 359 00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:42,719 Speaker 1: Don't be afraid of it? Everyone should be afraid of COVID. 360 00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:46,199 Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, Nicole. When I saw that Trump, I 361 00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:50,439 Speaker 1: mean I literally was overwhelmed. If the White House and 362 00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:52,840 Speaker 1: their calculation this is about trying to instill a sense 363 00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:55,639 Speaker 1: of normalcy, then we all know that life can't really 364 00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:58,360 Speaker 1: feel like it's back to normal. It can't feel Americans 365 00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:00,760 Speaker 1: can't feel that they have the virus us under control. 366 00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:04,359 Speaker 1: We have absolutely zero chance, and by zero chance, I 367 00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:09,440 Speaker 1: mean zero, zero, zero chance of moving past us with 368 00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:14,760 Speaker 1: noneld Trump in that job. Yes, yes, the shameful media 369 00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:21,560 Speaker 1: turning from don't worry about coronavirus to the coronavirus is 370 00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:26,639 Speaker 1: the worst thing ever. And Donald Trump is to blame 371 00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:31,359 Speaker 1: That's exactly how they spun it, and they continue to 372 00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:36,240 Speaker 1: put it that way. CNN today constantly running its body count. 373 00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:40,600 Speaker 1: These ghouls at CNN cannot get past this, even though 374 00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:44,520 Speaker 1: we're getting reports out of places like Denver, Colorado, where 375 00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:48,880 Speaker 1: two people were shot and died and they were listed 376 00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:56,200 Speaker 1: as COVID deaths. It's just amazing, just absolutely amazing. Coming 377 00:26:56,240 --> 00:27:02,680 Speaker 1: in at number five is the mysterious peaceful protests. Remember 378 00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:05,160 Speaker 1: all the people who were burning and looting. We had 379 00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:07,920 Speaker 1: a what was it about? Oh? I guess it was 380 00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:11,480 Speaker 1: about a billion dollars in damage in Minneapolis after the 381 00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:16,080 Speaker 1: George Floyd killing. Horrible killing, by the way, but no 382 00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:19,040 Speaker 1: reason to burn down your town and destroy businesses and 383 00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:21,359 Speaker 1: people had nothing to do with it. But it was 384 00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:26,639 Speaker 1: a peaceful protest, wasn't it. Wasn't it mainstream media, that 385 00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:29,400 Speaker 1: ain't a riot what we're seeing right now in Minneapolo Broke, 386 00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:32,080 Speaker 1: I think this is a march. Really, as they're coming off, 387 00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:36,800 Speaker 1: it's peaceful, they're saying, peaceful protest. People are risking COVID 388 00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:41,320 Speaker 1: to explain to this country that work fed up goodness 389 00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:44,040 Speaker 1: for the looters man. Any reasonable person would say we 390 00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:46,760 Speaker 1: shouldn't be destroying other people's property. But these are not 391 00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:50,160 Speaker 1: reasonable times. Please show me where it says the protests 392 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:53,399 Speaker 1: are supposed to be polite and peaceful. I'll tell you 393 00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:55,920 Speaker 1: where it says that. I'll tell you where it says 394 00:27:55,960 --> 00:28:01,120 Speaker 1: that mister Cuomo, the lesser Cuomo one nn it says 395 00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:05,120 Speaker 1: that in the First Amendment, peaceful protest is there. It's 396 00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:08,960 Speaker 1: it's not violent protests that you guys call peaceful. And meanwhile, 397 00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:15,360 Speaker 1: in the background of many of those shots were burning stores, fires, looting, 398 00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:17,280 Speaker 1: all of that stuff. But you guys go ahead and 399 00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:21,040 Speaker 1: keep calling it a peaceful protest. You're as confused about 400 00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:27,840 Speaker 1: that as you are about what happened with NASCAR, aren't you? 401 00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:36,000 Speaker 1: You idiots? NASCAR is investigating a horrible, incidental, horrifying, racing, jarring, disturbing, ugly, 402 00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:40,640 Speaker 1: howardly discussing reminder of who again this sport is for 403 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:43,800 Speaker 1: a noose found in the gas stall of Bubba Wallace. 404 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,840 Speaker 1: Do you think it's surprising? So that surprising at all? 405 00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:49,800 Speaker 1: It's just not shocking to anybody. And NASCAR is often 406 00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:53,200 Speaker 1: considered a sport that is tethered to wipe folk to 407 00:28:53,320 --> 00:28:55,520 Speaker 1: the South. As much as NASCAR may try to distance 408 00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:58,160 Speaker 1: itself from that. It's a living, breathing part of this 409 00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:02,880 Speaker 1: for working. Yeah, the Bubba Watson or Bubba Wallace a 410 00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:08,240 Speaker 1: news controversy, the door pull it was not a news 411 00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:12,760 Speaker 1: It was a thin rope. And they started removing rope 412 00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:18,400 Speaker 1: then from home depots and hardware stores because people were 413 00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:22,320 Speaker 1: terrified that someone would tie in noose and that would 414 00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:26,120 Speaker 1: destroy the world. It was so embarrassing what happened with 415 00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:29,320 Speaker 1: all that, But I guess we had a dialogue, so 416 00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:31,720 Speaker 1: everything will be okay. There was no racism, there was 417 00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:36,640 Speaker 1: no clan protest there. The media also lost his mind 418 00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:41,280 Speaker 1: over Donald Trump, and they were speculating that if Donald 419 00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:44,720 Speaker 1: Trump lost the election, he would become a dictator and 420 00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:49,160 Speaker 1: the military would take over and keep him in office. 421 00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:51,560 Speaker 1: I think we were looking at a potentially a trial 422 00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:57,080 Speaker 1: run for a kind of a genuine attempt to through 423 00:29:57,120 --> 00:30:03,280 Speaker 1: intimidation and potentially through worse, to try to to try 424 00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:05,400 Speaker 1: to steal this election. We have to be prepared for 425 00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:09,200 Speaker 1: things that this nation has never faced before, and unfortunately 426 00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:13,040 Speaker 1: that could involve the use of you know, these forces 427 00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:16,200 Speaker 1: are just the president's own version of martial law. Since 428 00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:19,640 Speaker 1: the real military has kind of pushed back from doing that. 429 00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:22,440 Speaker 1: And is there anybody, having watch Donald Trump for the 430 00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:24,680 Speaker 1: last three and a half years who doesn't think that 431 00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:27,360 Speaker 1: Donald Trump would try to employ martial law if he 432 00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:29,080 Speaker 1: thought it was the only way you could stay in power. 433 00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:34,280 Speaker 1: And you people are crazy, And yet there are crazier 434 00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:38,960 Speaker 1: moments from the mainstream media from this year. I still 435 00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:41,960 Speaker 1: have three more to go. I'll share them with you 436 00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:45,560 Speaker 1: after the break. Michael Pelka and for Buck Sexton on 437 00:30:45,720 --> 00:31:01,480 Speaker 1: the buck Sexton Show, You're enough Freedom d. This is 438 00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:28,040 Speaker 1: the buck Sexton Show podcast. It's Michael Pelker wrapping up 439 00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:30,880 Speaker 1: the first hour of the Buck Sexton Show. I'm in 440 00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:35,360 Speaker 1: the middle of County down the top ten most shameful 441 00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:40,960 Speaker 1: moments of the mainstream media in twenty twenty. My choices 442 00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:44,360 Speaker 1: with an assystem or friends at Graby and thank you 443 00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:48,239 Speaker 1: Tom Elliott. And in looking at these, there are some 444 00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:53,280 Speaker 1: that are particularly offensive and egregious. And with the final 445 00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:57,360 Speaker 1: three here, you might disagree with me on some of them, 446 00:31:57,400 --> 00:32:00,880 Speaker 1: but then again you might agree. So let's have a 447 00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:05,400 Speaker 1: little fun, shall we. Coming in at number three is 448 00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:11,120 Speaker 1: the mainstream media's embarrassing moments. When Donald Trump visited Mount 449 00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:16,000 Speaker 1: Rushmore on July third, The President made a very patriotic 450 00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:20,080 Speaker 1: and fantastic speech, but all the mainstream media could think 451 00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:26,360 Speaker 1: about was racism, of course, because that's all they see 452 00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:30,520 Speaker 1: is race. Today, President Trump is going to South Dakota 453 00:32:30,560 --> 00:32:33,080 Speaker 1: for what has become a controversial trip to Mount Rushmore, 454 00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:36,280 Speaker 1: the mother of all photo ops, Mount Rushmore, and we 455 00:32:36,440 --> 00:32:39,800 Speaker 1: know why this president just can't resist going there, where 456 00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:42,000 Speaker 1: he'll be standing in front of a monument of two 457 00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:46,040 Speaker 1: slave owners and on land rustled away from Native Americans. 458 00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:51,000 Speaker 1: These people would love to see Mount Rushmore removed. They 459 00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:55,040 Speaker 1: would just love to see Mount Rushmore dynamited and taken down. 460 00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:57,960 Speaker 1: Let's face it, that's what they're up to. It's one 461 00:32:57,960 --> 00:33:00,760 Speaker 1: of the more embarrassing moments and was also one of 462 00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:05,520 Speaker 1: Donald Trump's more inspired and stronger speeches of the year. 463 00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:08,600 Speaker 1: And he gave some great ones, including the address last 464 00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:13,440 Speaker 1: night telling Congress you better fix this COVID funding thing 465 00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:19,120 Speaker 1: coming in at number two and this one. It saddens 466 00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:21,880 Speaker 1: me that we won't have him to kick around much anymore. 467 00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:27,000 Speaker 1: Chris Matthews retired from MSNBC this year. Kind of got 468 00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:29,840 Speaker 1: shoved out the door because there was just too much 469 00:33:30,040 --> 00:33:35,000 Speaker 1: me too evidence against Chris Matthews and the creepiness that 470 00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:39,040 Speaker 1: was him on television, not just the thrill up his leg, 471 00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:43,280 Speaker 1: but how he treated women was so creepy. Chris Matthews 472 00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:51,280 Speaker 1: was watching a clip featuring Jamie Harrison, the guy who 473 00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:56,000 Speaker 1: ran against Lindsey Graham for the Senate in South Carolina, 474 00:33:56,040 --> 00:33:59,960 Speaker 1: and he's getting ready to interview Jamie. But Chris Matthew 475 00:34:00,520 --> 00:34:04,960 Speaker 1: sees the clip which had Tim Scott, another black man 476 00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:08,040 Speaker 1: on it. But Chris Matthews, he's one of those old 477 00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:12,680 Speaker 1: people who apparently thinks all people of color look the same. 478 00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:17,080 Speaker 1: This actually happened on television, with people having to correct 479 00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:21,839 Speaker 1: him live, including Jamie Harrison. Jamie, I see a standing 480 00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:23,720 Speaker 1: next to the guy. You're gonna be right there, maybe 481 00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:34,040 Speaker 1: maybe maybe Lindsey Graham. Jamie, who's that? I'm sorry, Oh, 482 00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:36,520 Speaker 1: it's the other, said j Scott. What am I saying? 483 00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:41,680 Speaker 1: Big mistake? Mistaken identity, sir? Sorry? Yeah, yeah, yeah, big mistake, 484 00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:47,160 Speaker 1: mistaken identity, sir. Sorry. Chris Matthews pushed out not long 485 00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:51,160 Speaker 1: after that. But I think my favorite most embarrassing moment 486 00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:55,240 Speaker 1: of the year was sort of a collection of Mika 487 00:34:55,320 --> 00:35:00,800 Speaker 1: Brasinsky moments, because Mika Brasinsky hates Donald Trump so much 488 00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:05,160 Speaker 1: she appears to have lost her ability to even as 489 00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:09,239 Speaker 1: the young people say, here's a little bit of MICA's meltdowns. 490 00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:13,080 Speaker 1: There's clear disdain that I have for this president, from 491 00:35:13,080 --> 00:35:17,239 Speaker 1: his paid off porn star to russialize racism in Charlotte's 492 00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:21,840 Speaker 1: children in cages. You are pathetic. Every day this president 493 00:35:21,960 --> 00:35:26,040 Speaker 1: looks more ridiculous. Wake up, talk about dits, talk about 494 00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:31,360 Speaker 1: a dizzy stupid, botched response. It's idiotic, and you're terrible. 495 00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:35,680 Speaker 1: You're wrong. How stupid can you be? If you're sensing 496 00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:38,880 Speaker 1: a little intensity here, I'm a little amp, a little 497 00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:42,960 Speaker 1: amped up. I'd say Donald Trump is living rent free 498 00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:47,480 Speaker 1: in your head, lady. He is there and he ain't leaving. 499 00:35:48,239 --> 00:35:54,360 Speaker 1: Donald jump Trump has a permanent residency in MICA's brain. 500 00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:58,759 Speaker 1: Apparently has plenty of room up there. Those moments are 501 00:35:58,800 --> 00:36:02,200 Speaker 1: just a collection that I have put together my favorite 502 00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:05,759 Speaker 1: top ten embarrassing media moments. As I said, you could 503 00:36:05,760 --> 00:36:10,640 Speaker 1: probably include Election night when the mainstream media just couldn't 504 00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:15,600 Speaker 1: wait to call the election for Joe Biden because they 505 00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:18,840 Speaker 1: hate Donald Trump so much. And now we're going to 506 00:36:18,920 --> 00:36:23,239 Speaker 1: wait until I don't know, January sixth, maybe to see 507 00:36:23,280 --> 00:36:26,799 Speaker 1: what the heck happens. Maybe there'll be a little protest 508 00:36:27,120 --> 00:36:29,520 Speaker 1: in Congress. We're going to talk to Tracy Beans from 509 00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:34,000 Speaker 1: Uncovered DC and find out what's going on, what's currently planned. 510 00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:37,560 Speaker 1: There may also be a little bit of a good 511 00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:41,960 Speaker 1: trouble happening in DC. On January sixth, Donald Trump suggested, 512 00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:45,200 Speaker 1: everybody show up in Washington. I think I'm gonna be there. 513 00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:48,440 Speaker 1: We'll find out.

And I know you are a conservative, 541 00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:57,879 Speaker 1: but I also know you're not afraid to call out 542 00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:01,640 Speaker 1: conservatives when they do the wrong thing, and that is 543 00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:05,000 Speaker 1: truly one of the things I respect about you so much. 544 00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:08,560 Speaker 1: But I'm glad you're here tonight because we need to talk. 545 00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:13,120 Speaker 1: We need to talk about what's going on, especially as 546 00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:18,400 Speaker 1: it relates to election challenges leading up to January sixth, 547 00:39:18,920 --> 00:39:22,080 Speaker 1: and what could happen in the Joint Session of Congress. 548 00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:25,439 Speaker 1: Where are we on all this Tracy. You know, there's 549 00:39:25,440 --> 00:39:27,560 Speaker 1: a lot of hearing still going on. There's a hearing 550 00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:31,160 Speaker 1: going on that went on this afternoon in Georgia. And 551 00:39:31,960 --> 00:39:36,840 Speaker 1: there are people seriously considering now meeting in these states 552 00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:43,240 Speaker 1: and decertifying their original vote and recertifying President Trump electors. 553 00:39:43,320 --> 00:39:44,840 Speaker 1: This is this is one of the other kind of 554 00:39:44,880 --> 00:39:48,240 Speaker 1: tangents that we're seeing happen now when we're putting pressure 555 00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:51,520 Speaker 1: as the American people on our state representatives in those 556 00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:54,120 Speaker 1: contested states to make sure they do the right thing. 557 00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:57,360 Speaker 1: There was an exact a report. It is entitled the 558 00:39:57,440 --> 00:40:00,960 Speaker 1: Chairman's Report of the Election Law Study Subcommittee of the 559 00:40:01,080 --> 00:40:06,239 Speaker 1: Standing Senate Judiciary Committee, put out in Georgia just days ago. 560 00:40:07,080 --> 00:40:10,120 Speaker 1: Kind of flew under the radar, but the introduction, the 561 00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:15,000 Speaker 1: executive summary portion it says the November third, twenty twenty 562 00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:18,160 Speaker 1: general election was chaotic and any reported results must be 563 00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:24,920 Speaker 1: viewed as untrustworthy. Is this is this fifteen page document untrustworthy? 564 00:40:25,040 --> 00:40:28,719 Speaker 1: You say? And yet they've been certified. I mean yes, 565 00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:31,799 Speaker 1: which is why in recommendation H, which people are like, oh, 566 00:40:31,920 --> 00:40:33,800 Speaker 1: this is old, it's it's I mean, it's the seventeenth 567 00:40:33,840 --> 00:40:36,279 Speaker 1: that came out. Who cares? This is what they say 568 00:40:36,360 --> 00:40:39,800 Speaker 1: in H Mike, They say the Legislature should carefully consider 569 00:40:39,840 --> 00:40:42,719 Speaker 1: its obligations under the Constitution. If a majority of the 570 00:40:42,800 --> 00:40:46,000 Speaker 1: General Assembly concurs with the findings of this report, the 571 00:40:46,120 --> 00:40:49,480 Speaker 1: certification of the election should be rescinded, and the General 572 00:40:49,560 --> 00:40:52,120 Speaker 1: Assembly should act to determine the proper electors to be 573 00:40:52,200 --> 00:40:55,000 Speaker 1: certified to the Electoral College in the twenty twenty race. 574 00:40:55,400 --> 00:40:57,720 Speaker 1: Since time is of the essence, the Chairman and Senators 575 00:40:57,760 --> 00:41:00,360 Speaker 1: who concur with this report recommend that the leadership of 576 00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:03,680 Speaker 1: the General Assembly and the Governor immediately convened to allow 577 00:41:03,719 --> 00:41:07,640 Speaker 1: further consideration by the entire General Assembly. So that came 578 00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:11,600 Speaker 1: out on the seventeenth and it says should they recommend 579 00:41:11,719 --> 00:41:15,799 Speaker 1: the Governor and the Assembly should convene immediately. And it's 580 00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:20,040 Speaker 1: been a week. Where where is immediately in all of this, Well, 581 00:41:20,120 --> 00:41:25,760 Speaker 1: it's it's getting through the swamp infested governor and people 582 00:41:25,840 --> 00:41:29,360 Speaker 1: around him who won't call the General Assembly meeting, and 583 00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:32,520 Speaker 1: there's no way to force it. It all sits on 584 00:41:32,680 --> 00:41:36,680 Speaker 1: the governor's shoulders. You know what I would do, No, 585 00:41:36,960 --> 00:41:39,640 Speaker 1: I would get all of my partners in crime there together, 586 00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:44,120 Speaker 1: and I would get the General Assembly together anyway and 587 00:41:44,280 --> 00:41:46,120 Speaker 1: go ahead and do the business of the people. That's 588 00:41:46,160 --> 00:41:48,640 Speaker 1: what I would do if I were them. So is 589 00:41:48,719 --> 00:41:51,840 Speaker 1: there a snowball's chance in hell that this General Assembly 590 00:41:51,960 --> 00:41:55,799 Speaker 1: will be called by the governor or assembled by all 591 00:41:55,840 --> 00:41:59,839 Speaker 1: the people who agree with this report from the seventeenth Well, 592 00:41:59,840 --> 00:42:02,360 Speaker 1: there always is a chance. Whether or not it's a 593 00:42:02,400 --> 00:42:05,040 Speaker 1: good chance is a different story. They're doing this hearing, 594 00:42:05,480 --> 00:42:08,919 Speaker 1: you know, this afternoon, they did this hearing, and well 595 00:42:09,120 --> 00:42:11,960 Speaker 1: it's the election officials basically saying, well, you know, we 596 00:42:12,040 --> 00:42:13,800 Speaker 1: really kind of wanted to get rid of the signature 597 00:42:13,880 --> 00:42:19,959 Speaker 1: requirement on absentee ballots anyway, because it's disenfranchising people whose 598 00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:23,480 Speaker 1: signature of change. I mean, they're still they're saying, yeah, 599 00:42:23,800 --> 00:42:26,520 Speaker 1: people double voted, but it was innocent. It wasn't something 600 00:42:26,640 --> 00:42:28,719 Speaker 1: that happened on it. This is where we're at. So 601 00:42:29,280 --> 00:42:31,080 Speaker 1: you can use that to gauge whether it will happen. 602 00:42:31,160 --> 00:42:33,720 Speaker 1: But the point of this is they'll have this AMMO 603 00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:38,120 Speaker 1: in their hands now, right, So any US congressperson who 604 00:42:38,200 --> 00:42:40,120 Speaker 1: there's now a growing coalition of them who are going 605 00:42:40,160 --> 00:42:43,000 Speaker 1: to challenge electors, and any US Senator who has the guts, 606 00:42:43,080 --> 00:42:47,080 Speaker 1: perhaps Rand Paul on the eve of his Festivus airing 607 00:42:47,160 --> 00:42:50,320 Speaker 1: of grievances, can get together with some other of his 608 00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:53,359 Speaker 1: buddies and stand up and use this information that's now 609 00:42:53,440 --> 00:42:57,640 Speaker 1: been submitted into committee in the States to contest Georgia's electors. 610 00:42:58,600 --> 00:43:03,200 Speaker 1: So that takes us to January sixth. And yeah, while 611 00:43:03,320 --> 00:43:06,480 Speaker 1: today is festivals the holiday for the rest of US, 612 00:43:07,680 --> 00:43:13,160 Speaker 1: January sixth is rapidly approaching. We have a handful of 613 00:43:13,360 --> 00:43:16,759 Speaker 1: elected officials and some who have not yet been sworn in, 614 00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:20,000 Speaker 1: who are saying they're going to stand up. The last 615 00:43:20,080 --> 00:43:23,759 Speaker 1: time we did this in twenty sixteen, the Democrats interrupted 616 00:43:23,880 --> 00:43:29,200 Speaker 1: Joe Biden eleven times to object to the electoral count. 617 00:43:31,760 --> 00:43:36,439 Speaker 1: Do we really feel like there's momentum building on this. Well, 618 00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:39,320 Speaker 1: I don't believe last time, and you can correct me 619 00:43:39,400 --> 00:43:42,280 Speaker 1: if I'm wrong that there were competing slates of electors 620 00:43:42,560 --> 00:43:47,080 Speaker 1: certified and scent as well. Yes, inventh, you're right, You're 621 00:43:47,160 --> 00:43:51,560 Speaker 1: absolutely right, because it was just a noise at that point. 622 00:43:51,719 --> 00:43:56,239 Speaker 1: There was no real chance that a competing state or 623 00:43:56,360 --> 00:43:59,560 Speaker 1: slate of electors in any of those contested states could 624 00:43:59,640 --> 00:44:03,280 Speaker 1: step up. And now we have slates in enough states 625 00:44:03,840 --> 00:44:07,320 Speaker 1: that if they are recognized, if the challenges stand, that 626 00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:12,720 Speaker 1: would push Biden below to seventy correct. If they vote 627 00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:15,840 Speaker 1: and the electors or they either vote to completely discount 628 00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:18,120 Speaker 1: the electors or take the Trump's slate of electors, he 629 00:44:18,200 --> 00:44:22,040 Speaker 1: would be below the necessary threshold, and then the vote 630 00:44:22,080 --> 00:44:26,080 Speaker 1: would go to the House of Representative state delegations, of 631 00:44:26,160 --> 00:44:29,359 Speaker 1: which we have twenty seven I believe. Yeah, yeah, that's true, 632 00:44:29,520 --> 00:44:33,120 Speaker 1: and the House would select the president and the Senate 633 00:44:33,200 --> 00:44:37,880 Speaker 1: would select the vice president. Correct. This is so crazy, 634 00:44:39,040 --> 00:44:40,759 Speaker 1: it is, but this is where we are, and it's 635 00:44:40,800 --> 00:44:43,799 Speaker 1: not because there's no evidence of voter fraud, like everybody can. 636 00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:45,960 Speaker 1: Anybody who's still saying that has got to be out 637 00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:50,560 Speaker 1: of their minds. Yeah, point yeah. I think with everything, 638 00:44:50,960 --> 00:44:56,600 Speaker 1: especially the thousands of affidavits that we saw with the state, 639 00:44:56,719 --> 00:44:59,279 Speaker 1: just that statement from this report that they didn't have 640 00:44:59,360 --> 00:45:02,440 Speaker 1: any faith in this in the results of this election 641 00:45:02,600 --> 00:45:07,360 Speaker 1: speaks volumes. But we need we need Pennsylvania, Georgia and 642 00:45:07,640 --> 00:45:11,280 Speaker 1: what one other state to make this happen. Yeah, something 643 00:45:11,360 --> 00:45:15,160 Speaker 1: like that it's any combination of a certain number, you know. Um. 644 00:45:15,360 --> 00:45:17,000 Speaker 1: But the crazy thing is, Mike, you know a lot 645 00:45:17,040 --> 00:45:19,040 Speaker 1: of people are, oh, this is the Trump's late of 646 00:45:19,080 --> 00:45:22,880 Speaker 1: electors that included this report. No, this is literally a 647 00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:26,800 Speaker 1: congressional committee or a Senate committee inside of Georgia's state government. 648 00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:30,880 Speaker 1: This is not you know, some this is the people 649 00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:33,000 Speaker 1: that are running government in Georgia that are saying this. 650 00:45:33,960 --> 00:45:36,880 Speaker 1: It's disturbing to me that the governor will not respond. 651 00:45:37,200 --> 00:45:40,080 Speaker 1: That's what really bothers me more than anything, that a 652 00:45:40,239 --> 00:45:44,239 Speaker 1: Republican governor will not step up. And I'm not sure 653 00:45:44,320 --> 00:45:48,719 Speaker 1: what he's afraid of. I have a really Georgia. If 654 00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:51,040 Speaker 1: you take take a look at the electoral college map, 655 00:45:51,160 --> 00:45:53,480 Speaker 1: take a look at the map the results of this 656 00:45:53,600 --> 00:45:57,720 Speaker 1: election on a map, Mike, Yeah, it is a sea 657 00:45:58,280 --> 00:46:02,560 Speaker 1: of red of it. There are like seven or eight 658 00:46:02,600 --> 00:46:05,120 Speaker 1: little spots of blue, and guess where they all are. 659 00:46:08,080 --> 00:46:12,080 Speaker 1: Democrat played Fulton County and all the police we're having 660 00:46:12,120 --> 00:46:15,040 Speaker 1: these problems right now. Yeah, Well, we know that that 661 00:46:15,160 --> 00:46:19,560 Speaker 1: Donald Trump won more counties than anybody ever expected. I 662 00:46:19,640 --> 00:46:23,560 Speaker 1: think he set a record for a president who was 663 00:46:23,680 --> 00:46:27,160 Speaker 1: running for reelection. And this just curious to me. That 664 00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:30,600 Speaker 1: these counties all turned up blue and they were just 665 00:46:31,000 --> 00:46:35,279 Speaker 1: enough to push Joe Biden across the finish line in 666 00:46:35,440 --> 00:46:39,200 Speaker 1: all of those contested states. And it's just maddening to me. Okay, 667 00:46:39,280 --> 00:46:42,840 Speaker 1: So we've got we've got Georgia and all this discussion, 668 00:46:42,880 --> 00:46:47,120 Speaker 1: We've got hearings going on, we have January sixth. There 669 00:46:47,280 --> 00:46:50,839 Speaker 1: is talk Tracy Beans from Uncovered, DC that people are 670 00:46:50,880 --> 00:46:54,600 Speaker 1: going to be gathering in Washington, d C. On January sixth, 671 00:46:54,760 --> 00:46:58,160 Speaker 1: as the President has suggested, will you be there and 672 00:46:58,480 --> 00:47:01,279 Speaker 1: what can you tell us might be going on? The 673 00:47:01,400 --> 00:47:04,479 Speaker 1: Commander in chief has spoken, has any Yes, he has. 674 00:47:04,560 --> 00:47:07,680 Speaker 1: And while I'm not enlisted in any branch of the military, 675 00:47:07,960 --> 00:47:10,000 Speaker 1: and when I tried, I was told I might do 676 00:47:10,160 --> 00:47:14,359 Speaker 1: better in the private sector. Ah yeah, the Marine said, son, yea, 677 00:47:14,680 --> 00:47:16,239 Speaker 1: we don't think you'll fit in here, And I think 678 00:47:16,280 --> 00:47:19,520 Speaker 1: they were right. But while I'm not a member of 679 00:47:19,560 --> 00:47:22,320 Speaker 1: the military, i am a faithful member of the Trump 680 00:47:22,480 --> 00:47:27,160 Speaker 1: Army and I'm planning on being there. Oh yeah, yeah, 681 00:47:27,200 --> 00:47:29,279 Speaker 1: I'm trying to find out a way to broadcast from there. 682 00:47:29,920 --> 00:47:32,839 Speaker 1: What's going on that you can tell us about. Well, 683 00:47:32,920 --> 00:47:35,279 Speaker 1: I know there's a big conglomeration of folks that are 684 00:47:35,360 --> 00:47:38,520 Speaker 1: going there, Like, I mean, I'm hearing more than the 685 00:47:38,640 --> 00:47:40,640 Speaker 1: first go round, Mike, when you and I spoke from 686 00:47:40,680 --> 00:47:46,880 Speaker 1: outside the Willard Hotel right before the Antifa attack. I'm 687 00:47:47,520 --> 00:47:50,759 Speaker 1: expecting there to be more people than that, and that 688 00:47:51,040 --> 00:47:55,239 Speaker 1: was a million people easy, So I'm looking forward to it. 689 00:47:55,880 --> 00:47:59,560 Speaker 1: I don't know who's organizing a speaking event or rally. 690 00:48:00,040 --> 00:48:01,840 Speaker 1: I think that it's a bunch of patriots that'll be 691 00:48:01,920 --> 00:48:04,160 Speaker 1: down there to let Congress know and the Senate know 692 00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:06,640 Speaker 1: that we're here. We're loud and you can't ignore us, 693 00:48:07,160 --> 00:48:09,359 Speaker 1: which I think is exactly what we should be doing. 694 00:48:11,080 --> 00:48:14,520 Speaker 1: You know, as a journalist who studies the facts of 695 00:48:14,640 --> 00:48:17,200 Speaker 1: this stuff, this is I keep on saying, we're at 696 00:48:17,200 --> 00:48:19,120 Speaker 1: a precipice in this country right now. So if you 697 00:48:19,200 --> 00:48:21,400 Speaker 1: can get there, I would be there. We don't know 698 00:48:21,480 --> 00:48:23,479 Speaker 1: exactly where yet, but it's not a very big city, 699 00:48:23,640 --> 00:48:26,160 Speaker 1: it's not a very big swamp. So so if I 700 00:48:26,280 --> 00:48:29,879 Speaker 1: were to be telling people where I think people might gather, 701 00:48:30,320 --> 00:48:32,759 Speaker 1: can I if I guess and you can tell me, 702 00:48:32,880 --> 00:48:37,239 Speaker 1: I'm warm, like like Freedom Plaza, you know, Yeah, that 703 00:48:37,400 --> 00:48:39,320 Speaker 1: might be a place where you would go behind the 704 00:48:39,440 --> 00:48:43,200 Speaker 1: White House. Yeah, freedom plazas any of them, like the 705 00:48:43,520 --> 00:48:49,880 Speaker 1: Lincoln Memorial or the Supreme Court potentially somewhere around that area. Yes, 706 00:48:50,080 --> 00:48:53,080 Speaker 1: in Capital Building obviously, so you know they're they're very 707 00:48:53,360 --> 00:48:56,760 Speaker 1: the hotspots. But I always always seems that Freedom Plaza 708 00:48:56,880 --> 00:48:58,600 Speaker 1: is a place to be in the beginning. Well, that's 709 00:48:58,640 --> 00:49:01,719 Speaker 1: a good idea, that's a good I think maybe that's 710 00:49:01,760 --> 00:49:04,479 Speaker 1: where I will be. I will wear a red hat. 711 00:49:04,880 --> 00:49:07,320 Speaker 1: Maybe you can find me. I might be able to 712 00:49:07,400 --> 00:49:09,399 Speaker 1: distinguish you from the rest of the folks if you're 713 00:49:09,440 --> 00:49:13,440 Speaker 1: wearing red. Thank you. Her name is Tracy Beans. She 714 00:49:13,600 --> 00:49:16,759 Speaker 1: truly is one of my favorites, and if you are 715 00:49:16,960 --> 00:49:21,200 Speaker 1: a person who's interested in the politics, you should visit 716 00:49:21,440 --> 00:49:26,200 Speaker 1: Uncovered DC dot com on a daily basis, not just weekly, 717 00:49:26,320 --> 00:49:30,880 Speaker 1: but daily.

Welcome back to the 723 00:50:09,560 --> 00:50:11,840 Speaker 1: Buck Sex and Show. Michael Pelka here in for my 724 00:50:12,000 --> 00:50:15,240 Speaker 1: friend Buck Sex. Then Yes, the Godfather back in putting 725 00:50:15,320 --> 00:50:18,439 Speaker 1: together the old team, the Blaze team, if you will. 726 00:50:19,000 --> 00:50:21,120 Speaker 1: Happy to be here, thrilled to fill in for Buck. 727 00:50:21,480 --> 00:50:24,200 Speaker 1: And I missed this audience. So many of you reach 728 00:50:24,280 --> 00:50:27,320 Speaker 1: out on social media. I appreciate it more than I 729 00:50:27,400 --> 00:50:29,560 Speaker 1: can ever tell you. Hope you're getting ready to have 730 00:50:29,640 --> 00:50:32,400 Speaker 1: a merry Christmas. A couple of things I wanted to 731 00:50:32,680 --> 00:50:36,120 Speaker 1: go back to after we talked with Tracy Beans from 732 00:50:36,239 --> 00:50:40,120 Speaker 1: Uncovered DC, And yes, I really am serious about getting 733 00:50:40,200 --> 00:50:44,520 Speaker 1: to Washington, d C. On January sixth. I know it's January. 734 00:50:44,600 --> 00:50:47,280 Speaker 1: I know it's going to be cold, but that happens. 735 00:50:47,400 --> 00:50:50,160 Speaker 1: It's winter, people, and we have to be able to 736 00:50:50,320 --> 00:50:55,320 Speaker 1: stand up no matter what for our republic. Now, there's 737 00:50:55,360 --> 00:50:58,880 Speaker 1: another topic that we didn't get to with Tracy because 738 00:50:58,880 --> 00:51:01,880 Speaker 1: we were running out of time, and that is a 739 00:51:02,080 --> 00:51:08,280 Speaker 1: topic regarding the Durham investigation, the ongoing John Durham investigation 740 00:51:08,560 --> 00:51:13,120 Speaker 1: into the Russia probe that really stinks to high heaven. 741 00:51:14,400 --> 00:51:19,919 Speaker 1: And John Solomon was on Newsmax last night and John 742 00:51:19,960 --> 00:51:23,080 Speaker 1: Solomon was talking about something that a lot of people missed, 743 00:51:23,840 --> 00:51:28,200 Speaker 1: and that is an executive order signed by Donald Trump, 744 00:51:28,719 --> 00:51:33,239 Speaker 1: an executive order that could have serious repercussions that could 745 00:51:33,520 --> 00:51:37,440 Speaker 1: ripple all the way through this investigation. What am I 746 00:51:37,560 --> 00:51:41,200 Speaker 1: talking about, Well, I'll let John Solomon explain it to you. 747 00:51:41,560 --> 00:51:44,320 Speaker 1: So it got slowed down. But this is a very active, 748 00:51:44,880 --> 00:51:49,680 Speaker 1: serious case focusing on some very senior FBI leaders who 749 00:51:49,760 --> 00:51:54,440 Speaker 1: ran the Russia probe. Now, all of that is really important. 750 00:51:55,600 --> 00:51:57,960 Speaker 1: The probe got slowed down, most of because of COVID, 751 00:51:58,040 --> 00:52:03,080 Speaker 1: But these are probes into senior FBI officials who were 752 00:52:03,120 --> 00:52:06,320 Speaker 1: involved in this Russia probe that we're messing with. Donald Trump. 753 00:52:06,520 --> 00:52:08,000 Speaker 1: I think when it's all done, it may not be 754 00:52:08,080 --> 00:52:10,000 Speaker 1: at the timetable we all wanted. We certainly wanted it 755 00:52:10,120 --> 00:52:15,200 Speaker 1: before the election. People will be satisfied by the jurisprudence 756 00:52:15,239 --> 00:52:17,839 Speaker 1: and the punishments and the indictments and things that are 757 00:52:17,880 --> 00:52:24,560 Speaker 1: about to come. Did you hear that jurisprudence, punishments, indictments 758 00:52:24,800 --> 00:52:28,520 Speaker 1: that are about to come. Tell me more, John Solomon. 759 00:52:28,880 --> 00:52:31,040 Speaker 1: And something important happened tonight, and if you saw it, 760 00:52:31,400 --> 00:52:35,000 Speaker 1: but President Trump signed an executive order allowing John Durham 761 00:52:35,080 --> 00:52:38,400 Speaker 1: to present classified information to the grand jury. That's a 762 00:52:38,480 --> 00:52:41,640 Speaker 1: big deal that doesn't happen very often in government. It 763 00:52:41,800 --> 00:52:45,360 Speaker 1: tells you that Durham is building a criminal case and 764 00:52:45,440 --> 00:52:48,600 Speaker 1: there was something in our CIA or FBI secrets that 765 00:52:48,760 --> 00:52:50,719 Speaker 1: needed to be shared with grand jurors in order to 766 00:52:50,840 --> 00:52:54,319 Speaker 1: bring criminal charges. That's a sign of progress. I think 767 00:52:54,320 --> 00:52:56,640 Speaker 1: we're going to know where Durham is in the not 768 00:52:56,760 --> 00:52:59,560 Speaker 1: so distant future. Much slower than we thought, but a 769 00:52:59,719 --> 00:53:06,520 Speaker 1: very active criminal investigation, a very active criminal investigation into 770 00:53:06,760 --> 00:53:11,279 Speaker 1: senior level members of the FBI. This may have been 771 00:53:11,400 --> 00:53:14,279 Speaker 1: the most important news of the day yesterday. Well, the 772 00:53:14,360 --> 00:53:20,479 Speaker 1: mainstream media was all obsessed with this COVID relief bill 773 00:53:21,000 --> 00:53:23,719 Speaker 1: and of course the pork laden spending bill that was 774 00:53:23,760 --> 00:53:27,680 Speaker 1: attached to it, and the President's four minutes of genius 775 00:53:28,280 --> 00:53:31,520 Speaker 1: calling out the Congress both sides on their pork projects 776 00:53:31,880 --> 00:53:35,800 Speaker 1: and how they stiffed the American people. He was also 777 00:53:36,200 --> 00:53:40,000 Speaker 1: putting out an executive order that was going to make 778 00:53:40,120 --> 00:53:43,800 Speaker 1: life very, very difficult for the people who messed with 779 00:53:44,080 --> 00:53:48,280 Speaker 1: him and messed with his campaign and with his administration. 780 00:53:49,920 --> 00:53:54,759 Speaker 1: And that executive order, which allows classified information to be 781 00:53:54,840 --> 00:54:03,200 Speaker 1: shown to grand juries is also extended indefinitely, which means 782 00:54:03,280 --> 00:54:09,839 Speaker 1: that Durham can continuous investigation. Well passed January twentieth, if 783 00:54:10,000 --> 00:54:13,759 Speaker 1: God forbid, Joe Biden gets dragged across the finish line 784 00:54:13,840 --> 00:54:17,239 Speaker 1: and becomes the president of the United States, It'll be 785 00:54:17,480 --> 00:54:22,640 Speaker 1: very difficult for Joe Biden to stop any investigation into 786 00:54:22,840 --> 00:54:29,160 Speaker 1: his son, or any investigation into the Russia probe that 787 00:54:29,440 --> 00:54:34,960 Speaker 1: was meant to topple the Trump administration. That's the term 788 00:54:35,080 --> 00:54:39,239 Speaker 1: that A. G. Barr used, topple. He said that it 789 00:54:39,560 --> 00:54:43,360 Speaker 1: appears this was an effort to topple the Trump administration. 790 00:54:43,920 --> 00:54:48,359 Speaker 1: I chose that word specifically, especially today on Attorney General 791 00:54:48,480 --> 00:54:54,080 Speaker 1: Barr's last day. I'm sorry his tenure ended with people 792 00:54:54,200 --> 00:54:56,439 Speaker 1: feeling badly about the guy. I think he's a really 793 00:54:56,520 --> 00:55:00,480 Speaker 1: smart guy. Also think he is one of the reasonable 794 00:55:00,600 --> 00:55:03,840 Speaker 1: guys in Washington, d C. I wish he would have 795 00:55:03,960 --> 00:55:07,800 Speaker 1: done more, been a little more aggressive, but that's just me. 796 00:55:08,719 --> 00:55:12,879 Speaker 1: So keep your eyes on the Durham investigation, keep your 797 00:55:12,920 --> 00:55:15,880 Speaker 1: eyes on what might be coming out. I don't think 798 00:55:15,920 --> 00:55:18,600 Speaker 1: we're going to get an early Christmas present tomorrow, like 799 00:55:19,080 --> 00:55:22,920 Speaker 1: indictments delivered on Christmas Eve. People would think that's a 800 00:55:22,960 --> 00:55:26,920 Speaker 1: little too scroogy in if that's even a word. So 801 00:55:28,000 --> 00:55:32,120 Speaker 1: I hope that maybe we'll get something delivered between New 802 00:55:32,239 --> 00:55:37,440 Speaker 1: Years and before January sixth. If you know what I'm saying. 803 00:55:38,160 --> 00:55:41,200 Speaker 1: All right, I'm stepping aside Michael Pelka here sitting in 804 00:55:41,280 --> 00:55:43,640 Speaker 1: for my friend Buck Sexton on The Buck Sexton Show. 805 00:55:43,719 --> 00:55:47,640 Speaker 1: And yes, it's Christmas Eve Eve, and we're trying to 806 00:55:47,719 --> 00:55:49,759 Speaker 1: get to as much as we can and have as 807 00:55:49,880 --> 00:55:53,640 Speaker 1: much fun as we can at the same time. Thanks 808 00:55:53,680 --> 00:55:56,800 Speaker 1: for listening to the bus X and show podcasts. Remember 809 00:55:56,920 --> 00:56:00,640 Speaker 1: to subscribe on Apple podcast, the iHeartRadio Apple or wherever 810 00:56:00,760 --> 00:56:26,400 Speaker 1: you get your podcasts. He's holding the line for America. 811 00:56:26,760 --> 00:56:31,040 Speaker 1: Buck Sexton his back. Welcome back to the Buck Sexton Show. 812 00:56:31,160 --> 00:56:34,360 Speaker 1: Merry Christmas Eve. As I've been saying all day, it 813 00:56:34,640 --> 00:56:38,000 Speaker 1: is the day before the day before Christmas. And this 814 00:56:38,280 --> 00:56:41,600 Speaker 1: is also the day, if we go back in history, 815 00:56:42,160 --> 00:56:46,759 Speaker 1: when Clement Moore's poem Towards the Night Before Christmas and 816 00:56:46,880 --> 00:56:50,359 Speaker 1: All through the House was first published in the New 817 00:56:50,440 --> 00:56:54,960 Speaker 1: York Sentinel, and it was published anonymously. So maybe, maybe 818 00:56:55,200 --> 00:56:57,840 Speaker 1: maybe we'll get to that reading of the version of 819 00:56:58,000 --> 00:57:03,600 Speaker 1: that which honors the American soldier. It's a really interesting 820 00:57:03,640 --> 00:57:05,879 Speaker 1: and inspiring piece of literature. But I want to get 821 00:57:05,920 --> 00:57:10,040 Speaker 1: to something a little more from the host privileged card file. 822 00:57:10,640 --> 00:57:13,920 Speaker 1: I love cars and so I want to talk to 823 00:57:14,040 --> 00:57:17,520 Speaker 1: somebody about cars, especially as we're finishing up this year 824 00:57:18,120 --> 00:57:21,520 Speaker 1: and it's the weirdest year ever. I think we can 825 00:57:21,560 --> 00:57:24,920 Speaker 1: all agree twenty twenty weirdest year ever. But you know, 826 00:57:25,120 --> 00:57:28,400 Speaker 1: cars kept coming out. A lot of cars came out 827 00:57:28,480 --> 00:57:31,480 Speaker 1: this year. Maybe a lot of them didn't get noticed 828 00:57:31,480 --> 00:57:34,600 Speaker 1: because we're all in lockdown. You didn't do test drives. 829 00:57:35,000 --> 00:57:37,760 Speaker 1: But I have a friend who does this sort of thing. 830 00:57:38,400 --> 00:57:41,160 Speaker 1: She is Lauren Fixed the Car Coach. You've seen her 831 00:57:41,240 --> 00:57:44,040 Speaker 1: on Fox, You've seen her on Fox Business, the Weather Channel. 832 00:57:44,440 --> 00:57:47,400 Speaker 1: She's a race car driver and inventor all kinds of 833 00:57:47,520 --> 00:57:51,840 Speaker 1: crazy stuff with Lauren Fix. But she knows cars inside 834 00:57:51,920 --> 00:57:56,160 Speaker 1: and out. And Lauren is also part of a jury 835 00:57:56,400 --> 00:58:00,440 Speaker 1: that picks the car, the truck, the utility are of 836 00:58:00,600 --> 00:58:03,640 Speaker 1: the year. So we need to talk with Lauren Fix 837 00:58:03,760 --> 00:58:07,160 Speaker 1: the Car Coach. Welcome, my friend, Hello, my friend. Yes, 838 00:58:07,280 --> 00:58:09,720 Speaker 1: it is that time of year. We get to announce 839 00:58:09,760 --> 00:58:13,880 Speaker 1: the final three best car, best utility, and best truck 840 00:58:13,960 --> 00:58:17,320 Speaker 1: of the year. And that's based on what was available. 841 00:58:17,320 --> 00:58:18,880 Speaker 1: So it has to be brand new, it has to 842 00:58:19,040 --> 00:58:22,760 Speaker 1: or completely redone and so there were quite a few vehicles, 843 00:58:22,840 --> 00:58:25,520 Speaker 1: mostly in the suv market, obviously, but there were still 844 00:58:25,600 --> 00:58:28,560 Speaker 1: quite a few cars, even though people aren't necessarily buying them. Now, 845 00:58:28,840 --> 00:58:31,840 Speaker 1: this is kind of interesting because about three years ago 846 00:58:32,640 --> 00:58:35,840 Speaker 1: you and I were talking and there was a movement 847 00:58:36,040 --> 00:58:40,640 Speaker 1: afoot with carmakers around the world to get rid of sedance, 848 00:58:40,840 --> 00:58:42,840 Speaker 1: that they were going to get rid of sedance because 849 00:58:42,920 --> 00:58:47,720 Speaker 1: everybody wanted an suv. Has that stopped? Kind of yes, 850 00:58:47,840 --> 00:58:50,240 Speaker 1: and kind of note. Car manufactures such as Ford and 851 00:58:50,280 --> 00:58:52,880 Speaker 1: GM have really cut back. I mean, there's nothing other 852 00:58:52,920 --> 00:58:55,600 Speaker 1: than a Corvette and the Camaro for now until they 853 00:58:55,640 --> 00:58:57,120 Speaker 1: get rid of it, which it is, and they've got 854 00:58:57,240 --> 00:59:00,840 Speaker 1: Mustang and that's it. When you're looking on the Chryso side, 855 00:59:00,880 --> 00:59:04,040 Speaker 1: you've got Charger, Challenger. That's it. Everything else is gone. 856 00:59:04,760 --> 00:59:06,720 Speaker 1: So where do you get a sit in if you 857 00:59:06,760 --> 00:59:09,840 Speaker 1: want one. Well, even Lincoln and Cadillac aren't offering it anymore. 858 00:59:09,840 --> 00:59:14,160 Speaker 1: They've all switched to SUVs. That means that you have 859 00:59:14,280 --> 00:59:16,680 Speaker 1: to go to a Japanese or a Korean carmaker in 860 00:59:16,800 --> 00:59:20,760 Speaker 1: order to get something. Well, that's interesting. So the Germans 861 00:59:20,800 --> 00:59:23,160 Speaker 1: are still making a few though, right oh on the Germans. 862 00:59:23,240 --> 00:59:26,880 Speaker 1: Of course, the Germans because they're about performance, But as 863 00:59:26,920 --> 00:59:29,600 Speaker 1: far as like everyday Daily Driver. You can buy a Volkswagen, 864 00:59:29,720 --> 00:59:32,240 Speaker 1: but even they're starting to switch to full SUVs. So 865 00:59:32,360 --> 00:59:36,400 Speaker 1: you're watching this big transition to performance SUVs. Like Audie 866 00:59:36,440 --> 00:59:38,640 Speaker 1: has an SQ eight. I mean, you can get a 867 00:59:39,040 --> 00:59:43,920 Speaker 1: range land Rover Volar Dynamic Edition. I put that thing 868 00:59:43,960 --> 00:59:46,720 Speaker 1: into race mode. Holy moly, it's not like my race cards. 869 00:59:47,320 --> 00:59:50,120 Speaker 1: Zhoust opened up. It was like super impressive. So that 870 00:59:50,280 --> 00:59:52,000 Speaker 1: was a new vehicle this year as well. There was 871 00:59:52,040 --> 00:59:54,280 Speaker 1: a lot of really cool things on a lot of 872 00:59:54,320 --> 00:59:56,320 Speaker 1: electric vehicles, which I'm not the biggest fan of it. 873 00:59:56,440 --> 00:59:58,960 Speaker 1: I know you are, yeah, but I just think it's 874 00:59:59,040 --> 01:00:02,760 Speaker 1: kind of neat. Well that's great that innovation continues. So 875 01:00:03,000 --> 01:00:06,960 Speaker 1: let's talk about this. These are the North American Car, 876 01:00:07,120 --> 01:00:09,840 Speaker 1: Truck and Utility of the Year. What's the official name, 877 01:00:10,440 --> 01:00:14,520 Speaker 1: North American Car Truck and Utility Vehicle of the Year Awards. 878 01:00:14,640 --> 01:00:16,840 Speaker 1: I was a past president. I was a board member 879 01:00:16,920 --> 01:00:19,720 Speaker 1: for four years, so I helped elevate the brand and 880 01:00:20,040 --> 01:00:22,760 Speaker 1: raise some money and make big difference. In the differences, 881 01:00:23,320 --> 01:00:25,720 Speaker 1: you'll find two things. One, there are three key awards 882 01:00:25,760 --> 01:00:28,960 Speaker 1: that actually equal sales, and that's Car and Driver, Motor Trend, 883 01:00:29,040 --> 01:00:31,120 Speaker 1: and our award, the North American Car and Truck of 884 01:00:31,160 --> 01:00:35,440 Speaker 1: the Year award known as NACTOY and ACTOY, even though 885 01:00:35,480 --> 01:00:38,360 Speaker 1: there's more initials in there somewhere. But that's one thing 886 01:00:38,400 --> 01:00:41,200 Speaker 1: and the other thing for consumers it's really important is 887 01:00:41,240 --> 01:00:44,160 Speaker 1: that consumers, sixty eight percent of them go to third 888 01:00:44,320 --> 01:00:47,120 Speaker 1: party experts before they make a decision. They're like, I'm 889 01:00:47,160 --> 01:00:49,600 Speaker 1: torn between these three four cars. They'll go online and 890 01:00:49,680 --> 01:00:52,000 Speaker 1: start watching a bunch of YouTube videos and one of 891 01:00:52,040 --> 01:00:53,960 Speaker 1: them is mine. Car coach reports on we have a 892 01:00:54,040 --> 01:00:58,720 Speaker 1: podcast Total Car Score, and that together people get information 893 01:00:58,920 --> 01:01:00,840 Speaker 1: and then they make a disc based on what other 894 01:01:00,880 --> 01:01:02,920 Speaker 1: people say because nobody wants to buy a car and 895 01:01:03,040 --> 01:01:06,360 Speaker 1: later go that was a bad move. Shouldn't have done that? Yeah, 896 01:01:06,440 --> 01:01:08,600 Speaker 1: I agree, And I look to people like you who 897 01:01:08,640 --> 01:01:11,840 Speaker 1: actually no cars inside out and drive cars and test 898 01:01:11,960 --> 01:01:14,920 Speaker 1: cars and take notes, as opposed to somebody goes, oh 899 01:01:15,000 --> 01:01:17,160 Speaker 1: that car looked cool it to stop light. I'd like 900 01:01:17,240 --> 01:01:21,320 Speaker 1: to know more. So you're part of this jury of 901 01:01:21,520 --> 01:01:25,720 Speaker 1: people who select the finalist for the Car the Year. 902 01:01:25,800 --> 01:01:29,840 Speaker 1: How is the car the Year picked? Well? Each juror 903 01:01:30,040 --> 01:01:33,880 Speaker 1: has certain guidelines that we require through NACTOY, and then 904 01:01:33,960 --> 01:01:36,720 Speaker 1: after that, each juror has their own opinions and that 905 01:01:36,920 --> 01:01:40,880 Speaker 1: we can't change, so we go with performance and value 906 01:01:41,000 --> 01:01:46,440 Speaker 1: for the consumer. Reliability, is it knew, what's technologically advanced. 907 01:01:46,840 --> 01:01:48,600 Speaker 1: There's a lot of things as far as warrantine all 908 01:01:48,640 --> 01:01:51,040 Speaker 1: that's included too, And it really came down when you 909 01:01:51,080 --> 01:01:52,800 Speaker 1: look at the finalist, you can really get a good 910 01:01:52,840 --> 01:01:55,920 Speaker 1: feel for what was there, and it was impressive. When 911 01:01:55,960 --> 01:01:58,240 Speaker 1: you're looking at just you know, each vehicle, you say, Okay, 912 01:01:58,480 --> 01:02:00,640 Speaker 1: that car deserved to be analysts there were that didn't 913 01:02:00,720 --> 01:02:03,200 Speaker 1: make it, sadly that I thought deserved it. But I'm 914 01:02:03,280 --> 01:02:05,320 Speaker 1: one of fifty, so I don't get to make all 915 01:02:05,360 --> 01:02:07,840 Speaker 1: the choices. Okay, so let's hit them up the Car 916 01:02:07,920 --> 01:02:09,960 Speaker 1: of the Year. What are the three finalists in the 917 01:02:10,040 --> 01:02:12,280 Speaker 1: Car of the Year. Okay, the number one is the 918 01:02:12,360 --> 01:02:15,800 Speaker 1: Genesis G eighty. Now that is an all new vehicle 919 01:02:15,840 --> 01:02:18,000 Speaker 1: and if you've seen the Genesis line, that's the luxury 920 01:02:18,040 --> 01:02:21,240 Speaker 1: line for Hunday. They've really stepped up their game. I 921 01:02:21,440 --> 01:02:24,479 Speaker 1: really liked the G eight and I've reviewed it. There's 922 01:02:24,520 --> 01:02:26,720 Speaker 1: two engines and I just thought was a really well 923 01:02:26,760 --> 01:02:29,360 Speaker 1: done car. The next one is the Hondai Elantra, which 924 01:02:29,400 --> 01:02:31,520 Speaker 1: I am reviewing as we speak, so soon as I 925 01:02:31,600 --> 01:02:33,000 Speaker 1: get off the phonelume, I'm going to go out and 926 01:02:33,160 --> 01:02:36,080 Speaker 1: drive away and finish my review. That is all new. 927 01:02:36,120 --> 01:02:38,840 Speaker 1: It has basically a small Sonata. So if you saw 928 01:02:38,880 --> 01:02:41,840 Speaker 1: the Hundai Sonata and you liked it, almost everything from 929 01:02:41,920 --> 01:02:45,360 Speaker 1: that vehicle has merged onto the Elantra. Few safety features didn't. 930 01:02:45,840 --> 01:02:48,120 Speaker 1: But in that price point, you're you know, you're talking 931 01:02:48,200 --> 01:02:51,160 Speaker 1: like starting at nineteen thousand dollars, that's a really good value. 932 01:02:51,480 --> 01:02:54,440 Speaker 1: And the third car is the Nissan Sentra, which is 933 01:02:54,520 --> 01:02:57,439 Speaker 1: all new, more space, more tech, and again same price 934 01:02:57,520 --> 01:03:00,640 Speaker 1: point that low twenties at max fully loaded it, and 935 01:03:00,800 --> 01:03:03,480 Speaker 1: that's the G eight is more expensive, but depends when 936 01:03:03,480 --> 01:03:06,000 Speaker 1: you're looking at the gads competing with the German cars, 937 01:03:06,200 --> 01:03:09,680 Speaker 1: the Elantra and the Center are compete for value based cars. Well, 938 01:03:09,840 --> 01:03:12,320 Speaker 1: is that fair to have a car like the Genesis 939 01:03:12,440 --> 01:03:16,240 Speaker 1: competing against these two cars that base it like twenty grand. Well, 940 01:03:16,280 --> 01:03:20,160 Speaker 1: there's ten factors, plus people's personal opinion and m and 941 01:03:20,320 --> 01:03:22,680 Speaker 1: so that is part of it. The German cars did 942 01:03:22,800 --> 01:03:25,360 Speaker 1: run as well. I mean we had BMW's in here 943 01:03:25,440 --> 01:03:28,720 Speaker 1: and audies, we had Mazdas, we had everything, and sadly 944 01:03:28,760 --> 01:03:31,400 Speaker 1: they didn't make it because they have to hit all 945 01:03:31,480 --> 01:03:33,280 Speaker 1: of us soon we put in our points. It's not 946 01:03:33,400 --> 01:03:35,960 Speaker 1: just like one point for this car. It's a it's 947 01:03:36,000 --> 01:03:38,000 Speaker 1: a division. You get twenty five points and you can 948 01:03:38,040 --> 01:03:40,160 Speaker 1: only put a maximum ten on one car. So it 949 01:03:40,240 --> 01:03:42,560 Speaker 1: forces you to have to vote for other vehicles and 950 01:03:42,680 --> 01:03:45,000 Speaker 1: it's a good it's a good way to vote. It's 951 01:03:45,000 --> 01:03:48,120 Speaker 1: all done by Deloitte. So I think I think this 952 01:03:48,240 --> 01:03:50,440 Speaker 1: is a good fair analysis of the car category of 953 01:03:50,560 --> 01:03:53,440 Speaker 1: what's new and what's best. Okay, so we have we 954 01:03:53,640 --> 01:03:58,200 Speaker 1: have that, So Genesis G eight, Elantra and CenTra. What 955 01:03:58,360 --> 01:04:01,640 Speaker 1: about the truck? I love me and old truck all right, 956 01:04:02,000 --> 01:04:03,440 Speaker 1: if you want one, let me know because right now 957 01:04:03,480 --> 01:04:05,480 Speaker 1: they're super collectible and I work in the collector car 958 01:04:05,600 --> 01:04:07,560 Speaker 1: market as well. Retter. We just did a podcast on 959 01:04:07,720 --> 01:04:11,080 Speaker 1: cars they should collect and old Broncos and old board 960 01:04:11,120 --> 01:04:14,920 Speaker 1: and Chevy trucks are huge money right now. So right now, 961 01:04:15,080 --> 01:04:17,160 Speaker 1: top of the heat for the truck is my choice, 962 01:04:17,280 --> 01:04:19,960 Speaker 1: my all in choice. The Ford F one fifty has 963 01:04:20,080 --> 01:04:23,760 Speaker 1: so many cool new features besides safety that it actually 964 01:04:23,840 --> 01:04:26,200 Speaker 1: has the ability for you to run a generator off 965 01:04:26,240 --> 01:04:28,840 Speaker 1: the bed of the truck. Really and yeah, so they've 966 01:04:28,840 --> 01:04:31,520 Speaker 1: got a lot of meat things full folding flat seats 967 01:04:31,560 --> 01:04:33,959 Speaker 1: in case you're traveling long distances and you're hauling something 968 01:04:34,000 --> 01:04:35,960 Speaker 1: you want to pull into a restrier. It's late used 969 01:04:36,000 --> 01:04:37,600 Speaker 1: to not be able to fully recline. The seat now 970 01:04:37,640 --> 01:04:40,960 Speaker 1: goes fully flat, so it becomes a bed. Not while 971 01:04:41,000 --> 01:04:44,880 Speaker 1: you're driving, obviously, although I'm sure people will do stupid things. 972 01:04:45,480 --> 01:04:47,080 Speaker 1: And then the other thing is when the car is 973 01:04:47,080 --> 01:04:49,600 Speaker 1: in park, you can get the shifter handle to go 974 01:04:49,720 --> 01:04:52,480 Speaker 1: completely flat, and then the council unfolds and becomes a 975 01:04:52,560 --> 01:04:55,439 Speaker 1: desk or a table so you can eat, you can work, 976 01:04:55,680 --> 01:04:57,560 Speaker 1: and so that's also great for real using it as 977 01:04:57,680 --> 01:04:59,840 Speaker 1: contractors or it's your only vehicle. So I think that 978 01:05:00,000 --> 01:05:01,880 Speaker 1: at a really nice job with a hybrid engine, a 979 01:05:01,960 --> 01:05:04,800 Speaker 1: diesel engine, at gas engine, they have a plug incoming. 980 01:05:04,880 --> 01:05:07,480 Speaker 1: I mean, so they've really stepped up their game and 981 01:05:07,600 --> 01:05:10,000 Speaker 1: we've got to drive all variants. Of course I like 982 01:05:10,120 --> 01:05:13,440 Speaker 1: them loaded massaging seats. You know, it becomes a very 983 01:05:13,480 --> 01:05:16,720 Speaker 1: expensive truck when you load it up. Next is the 984 01:05:16,800 --> 01:05:19,320 Speaker 1: Jeep Gladier Majave. If you're really an off roader, which 985 01:05:19,320 --> 01:05:21,440 Speaker 1: I am not. I have done it, but it's this 986 01:05:21,640 --> 01:05:23,960 Speaker 1: is not a great fun vehicle on the street, but 987 01:05:24,520 --> 01:05:26,240 Speaker 1: because it's too rough a ride. But if you're going 988 01:05:26,320 --> 01:05:30,000 Speaker 1: off road, this is your vehicle that's on the list. 989 01:05:30,040 --> 01:05:33,120 Speaker 1: And then they RAM fifteen hundred TRX as in the 990 01:05:33,280 --> 01:05:36,080 Speaker 1: t Rex, as in dinosaur, because they're competing. It'st the 991 01:05:36,160 --> 01:05:39,080 Speaker 1: Ford Raptor. I guess dinosaur thing. It's a guy thing. 992 01:05:39,360 --> 01:05:43,440 Speaker 1: I don't get it. But the RAM fifteen hundred is 993 01:05:43,600 --> 01:05:46,240 Speaker 1: seven hundred and seven horsepower and it was a freaking 994 01:05:46,280 --> 01:05:49,560 Speaker 1: blast to drive. We have a new contributor who who 995 01:05:50,040 --> 01:05:53,000 Speaker 1: is a RAM owner, has been for years, and so 996 01:05:53,160 --> 01:05:54,720 Speaker 1: he helped me review it. It was a lot of fun. 997 01:05:54,800 --> 01:05:56,560 Speaker 1: And that thing you can launch it like a race car. 998 01:05:56,640 --> 01:05:59,080 Speaker 1: It was pretty impressive. So it's a truck with a 999 01:05:59,160 --> 01:06:04,360 Speaker 1: hellcat engine. A minute, why not? Right, that's true? Why 1000 01:06:04,440 --> 01:06:07,560 Speaker 1: not America? Okay, let's wrap up with the utility car 1001 01:06:07,640 --> 01:06:10,680 Speaker 1: of the year. What's up for utility? Okay, this is 1002 01:06:10,720 --> 01:06:14,160 Speaker 1: the biggest category. We'll start off with a Ford Mustang Machi. 1003 01:06:14,360 --> 01:06:17,400 Speaker 1: I'm against the naming Mustang. Everybody knows it, Ford knows it. 1004 01:06:17,520 --> 01:06:19,840 Speaker 1: I guess I was mentioned at the corporate meeting. That's 1005 01:06:19,840 --> 01:06:21,640 Speaker 1: a good thing. I asked, I would call it a 1006 01:06:21,760 --> 01:06:24,840 Speaker 1: Ford Mache. It is an all new Suv. It is 1007 01:06:24,920 --> 01:06:27,880 Speaker 1: Ford's entry level to the all electric market. They have 1008 01:06:28,160 --> 01:06:30,160 Speaker 1: been in there before when they had many years ago 1009 01:06:30,160 --> 01:06:31,920 Speaker 1: they had an escape, so they do have a lot 1010 01:06:31,960 --> 01:06:34,360 Speaker 1: of experience of electric vehicles, but this is all new 1011 01:06:34,480 --> 01:06:38,400 Speaker 1: in every way. If you're thinking about a cool looking 1012 01:06:38,880 --> 01:06:41,320 Speaker 1: SUV that compares with the model, why this would be 1013 01:06:41,320 --> 01:06:44,240 Speaker 1: as close as you're going to get. And there's infrastructure 1014 01:06:44,280 --> 01:06:46,040 Speaker 1: and dealer network. I know you own a Tesla. I 1015 01:06:46,160 --> 01:06:49,280 Speaker 1: love to throw my little barbs at you. Next is 1016 01:06:49,320 --> 01:06:53,280 Speaker 1: the Genesis GV eighty all new, really impressive, first entry 1017 01:06:53,360 --> 01:06:56,600 Speaker 1: level for Genesis and SUVs. That's my one hundred percent 1018 01:06:56,680 --> 01:06:59,920 Speaker 1: all in choice, just everything they offer. Two row, three row, 1019 01:07:00,080 --> 01:07:02,120 Speaker 1: four Cyland or six. I mean, there was so much 1020 01:07:02,280 --> 01:07:05,040 Speaker 1: tech in this car that the Germans should be upset. 1021 01:07:05,400 --> 01:07:07,400 Speaker 1: And the reason they're upset is they still a bunch 1022 01:07:07,440 --> 01:07:10,600 Speaker 1: of their designers, technicians and motor guys and that's who 1023 01:07:10,680 --> 01:07:12,880 Speaker 1: built a car. So you're gonna see a lot of 1024 01:07:13,000 --> 01:07:15,720 Speaker 1: German flavor. And then the land Rover Defender, which is 1025 01:07:15,840 --> 01:07:18,000 Speaker 1: an old vehicle from way back when that they've brought 1026 01:07:18,040 --> 01:07:20,320 Speaker 1: the name back. So if you really want someone stands 1027 01:07:20,360 --> 01:07:22,160 Speaker 1: out in the crowd, you can get the Snorkel. You know, 1028 01:07:22,160 --> 01:07:23,680 Speaker 1: if you wanted to like three feet in deep water, 1029 01:07:23,880 --> 01:07:25,640 Speaker 1: this car, I'll do it. You want to go off road, 1030 01:07:25,720 --> 01:07:27,240 Speaker 1: It'll do it. You want to drive it on the street, 1031 01:07:27,280 --> 01:07:30,320 Speaker 1: It's got it. But the price is not reasonable. It's 1032 01:07:30,360 --> 01:07:32,720 Speaker 1: in the eighties. So I guess if money is no 1033 01:07:32,880 --> 01:07:35,720 Speaker 1: factor and you want a cool statement car, that would 1034 01:07:35,760 --> 01:07:38,680 Speaker 1: be the one to choose, the land Rover Defender. The 1035 01:07:38,840 --> 01:07:43,960 Speaker 1: utility candidates are the Genesis GV eighty, the land Rover Defender, 1036 01:07:44,280 --> 01:07:46,680 Speaker 1: and the Ford Mochi, which we know how you feel 1037 01:07:46,680 --> 01:07:49,600 Speaker 1: about it, Lauren. When do we find out which of 1038 01:07:49,680 --> 01:07:52,680 Speaker 1: these are the car of the year. We vote January 1039 01:07:52,760 --> 01:07:56,280 Speaker 1: second through the fourth, and the announcement is January eleventh. 1040 01:07:56,480 --> 01:08:00,240 Speaker 1: I will be excited to put that out on National meet. Yeah, 1041 01:08:00,280 --> 01:08:03,040 Speaker 1: and I think this is these are good choices and 1042 01:08:03,320 --> 01:08:06,880 Speaker 1: the winners actually equal sales. So if you see someone winning, 1043 01:08:06,880 --> 01:08:09,440 Speaker 1: when these brands winning, you'll note that the sales and 1044 01:08:09,480 --> 01:08:12,320 Speaker 1: the lots the incentives kind of disappear because these vehicles 1045 01:08:12,360 --> 01:08:15,480 Speaker 1: will be gone, and so make your choices. Maybe now, 1046 01:08:15,880 --> 01:08:31,920 Speaker 1: Thank you, my friend, thank you, Happy holidays. You're in 1047 01:08:32,000 --> 01:08:35,560 Speaker 1: the Freedom, Linde. This is the buck Sexton show podcast. 1048 01:08:55,439 --> 01:08:58,040 Speaker 1: Welcome back to the Buck Sexton Show. Michael Pelka in 1049 01:08:58,200 --> 01:09:00,800 Speaker 1: for Buck and we were talking about the Christmas Star. 1050 01:09:01,200 --> 01:09:03,760 Speaker 1: So I pulled Billy halliwell in here, he's one of 1051 01:09:03,800 --> 01:09:06,600 Speaker 1: the great faith writers in this country. Bill, I have 1052 01:09:06,800 --> 01:09:09,880 Speaker 1: to know. I know it's still kind of visible, but 1053 01:09:10,280 --> 01:09:15,000 Speaker 1: was this the star that guided the wise men to Jesus? Yeah? 1054 01:09:15,080 --> 01:09:17,320 Speaker 1: You know, so we can't be one hundred percent sure 1055 01:09:17,360 --> 01:09:19,960 Speaker 1: because there are a bunch of theories about what they saw. 1056 01:09:20,160 --> 01:09:22,720 Speaker 1: Right Some are saying it was a supernova. Others are 1057 01:09:22,760 --> 01:09:27,639 Speaker 1: saying it was this really interesting essentially alignment of planets, 1058 01:09:27,680 --> 01:09:30,679 Speaker 1: which would have involved Saturn and Jupiter. Now what's interesting 1059 01:09:30,720 --> 01:09:32,920 Speaker 1: about what we're going to see in the skies is 1060 01:09:33,000 --> 01:09:36,280 Speaker 1: that this current one actually involved Saturn and Jupiter. So 1061 01:09:36,360 --> 01:09:40,280 Speaker 1: it's possible. But what's basically happening is that that Saturn 1062 01:09:40,640 --> 01:09:43,360 Speaker 1: and Jupiter are lining up in the sky. It looks 1063 01:09:43,400 --> 01:09:45,960 Speaker 1: like they're colliding, but there's still like four hundred million 1064 01:09:46,000 --> 01:09:48,200 Speaker 1: miles away from each other. But the way that they 1065 01:09:48,320 --> 01:09:50,519 Speaker 1: line up, it's going to be this bright, amazing star. 1066 01:09:50,600 --> 01:09:53,559 Speaker 1: And I actually saw it last night. This goes from 1067 01:09:53,600 --> 01:09:56,679 Speaker 1: the sixteenth through the twenty fifth. It ends on Christmas. 1068 01:09:56,800 --> 01:10:00,840 Speaker 1: I just find it. I find it really fascinating that 1069 01:10:00,960 --> 01:10:05,040 Speaker 1: it's happening around and on Christmas during a year when 1070 01:10:05,120 --> 01:10:08,120 Speaker 1: we've had so much chaos and pain, right in twenty twenty, 1071 01:10:08,400 --> 01:10:11,680 Speaker 1: and it's almost like this really cool reminder of what 1072 01:10:11,880 --> 01:10:14,760 Speaker 1: the season is about, and of hope and of all that. 1073 01:10:14,880 --> 01:10:17,320 Speaker 1: So can we be sure that it's the same thing 1074 01:10:17,400 --> 01:10:20,000 Speaker 1: they saw? No, but I think it points us right 1075 01:10:20,040 --> 01:10:22,200 Speaker 1: back to that, which I think is pretty amazing. Well, 1076 01:10:22,840 --> 01:10:26,719 Speaker 1: we can't exactly be sure, but there is science involved 1077 01:10:26,760 --> 01:10:30,040 Speaker 1: in this. Astronomers have been doing the math on this. 1078 01:10:30,240 --> 01:10:35,960 Speaker 1: The astronomers in Rice University in Texas did the math. 1079 01:10:36,920 --> 01:10:41,000 Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure some of the ancient astronomers did the math, 1080 01:10:41,360 --> 01:10:46,200 Speaker 1: and they know where and when these planetary alignments occur. Yes, 1081 01:10:46,400 --> 01:10:50,240 Speaker 1: and it's all around the same time. So there's every 1082 01:10:50,360 --> 01:10:53,320 Speaker 1: chance that this could have been what was called the 1083 01:10:53,520 --> 01:10:57,240 Speaker 1: star that guided the wise men. I have to interrupt 1084 01:10:57,280 --> 01:10:59,960 Speaker 1: you to to say that this particular alignment, so Saturday 1085 01:11:00,000 --> 01:11:03,080 Speaker 1: and Jupiter will build align every twenty years in the 1086 01:11:03,120 --> 01:11:05,559 Speaker 1: sky or so, but not like this, not this right, 1087 01:11:05,680 --> 01:11:09,840 Speaker 1: this is the first time that this particular alignment has 1088 01:11:09,880 --> 01:11:12,479 Speaker 1: happened in eight hundred years. More than eight hundred years. 1089 01:11:12,760 --> 01:11:15,120 Speaker 1: It was twelve to twenty six. That was the last 1090 01:11:15,200 --> 01:11:19,599 Speaker 1: time that this alignment happened, and I found it interesting. 1091 01:11:19,640 --> 01:11:21,840 Speaker 1: It's going to happen again in twenty eighty and then 1092 01:11:21,920 --> 01:11:24,960 Speaker 1: not for another four hundred years, So it's it's a 1093 01:11:25,120 --> 01:11:29,599 Speaker 1: notable moment. We know that something similar happened. You know. Again, 1094 01:11:29,920 --> 01:11:33,479 Speaker 1: there's research on this back around the year three, so 1095 01:11:33,680 --> 01:11:37,120 Speaker 1: basically around the time that Jesus was born. So it's 1096 01:11:37,240 --> 01:11:39,800 Speaker 1: very so interesting to me. But because my thing is like, 1097 01:11:39,880 --> 01:11:42,439 Speaker 1: if we can have this moment of hope, something that 1098 01:11:42,560 --> 01:11:45,360 Speaker 1: points us back to Christmas and it's happening on Christmas, 1099 01:11:45,479 --> 01:11:48,240 Speaker 1: I find that almost a little eerie, but in a 1100 01:11:48,320 --> 01:11:51,720 Speaker 1: positive way, in an interesting way. Then I'll take it 1101 01:11:51,840 --> 01:11:54,160 Speaker 1: because I think we meet that this year. We're talking 1102 01:11:54,200 --> 01:11:56,120 Speaker 1: to Billy Halliwell, he's a friend of mine. He's a 1103 01:11:56,160 --> 01:11:59,599 Speaker 1: faith writer. You can find him. What's the best place, Billy? 1104 01:11:59,680 --> 01:12:01,920 Speaker 1: Faith Wire? Is that the best place to find you? 1105 01:12:02,200 --> 01:12:04,360 Speaker 1: So I've got pieces over at faith Wire, but I 1106 01:12:04,479 --> 01:12:08,160 Speaker 1: actually write daily over at Insider dot pureflix dot com, 1107 01:12:08,240 --> 01:12:10,400 Speaker 1: and I have a story about about this Christmas star 1108 01:12:10,479 --> 01:12:13,040 Speaker 1: over there, So I'd encourage people to check that out. Okay, 1109 01:12:13,120 --> 01:12:17,200 Speaker 1: Insider dot Pureflix dot com. I also have to bring 1110 01:12:17,360 --> 01:12:20,519 Speaker 1: up your book Playing with Fire that came out earlier. 1111 01:12:20,640 --> 01:12:24,200 Speaker 1: I'm fascinated with this book because it's a book that 1112 01:12:24,439 --> 01:12:27,080 Speaker 1: as I read it, my jaw kept dropping. You're talking 1113 01:12:27,160 --> 01:12:32,920 Speaker 1: about all of the well known cases of exorcisms that 1114 01:12:33,040 --> 01:12:35,439 Speaker 1: we've talked about in the past, not just the one 1115 01:12:35,520 --> 01:12:40,120 Speaker 1: that inspired William Peter Blattie's book, but other exorcisms. And 1116 01:12:40,280 --> 01:12:42,880 Speaker 1: I have to go back now, a couple months after 1117 01:12:43,120 --> 01:12:46,600 Speaker 1: this book's been out and it's done, well, are you 1118 01:12:46,880 --> 01:12:54,240 Speaker 1: still getting revelations about demons and possessions and exorcisms. I am. 1119 01:12:54,479 --> 01:12:56,880 Speaker 1: And what's interesting is I've had people reach out to 1120 01:12:57,000 --> 01:12:59,000 Speaker 1: me and they're like, oh, my goodness, I heard your 1121 01:12:59,000 --> 01:13:01,519 Speaker 1: interview somewhere, or I picked up the book, and this 1122 01:13:01,640 --> 01:13:03,880 Speaker 1: is what's happening in my house. When you're talking about 1123 01:13:03,880 --> 01:13:06,360 Speaker 1: spiritual warfare and possession and all that. We tend to 1124 01:13:06,439 --> 01:13:08,559 Speaker 1: look at it as entertainment, but there are a lot 1125 01:13:08,640 --> 01:13:11,320 Speaker 1: of people out there, and yes, some people are having 1126 01:13:11,439 --> 01:13:15,000 Speaker 1: mental afflictions, but others are strengthening things that they cannot explain, 1127 01:13:15,479 --> 01:13:18,479 Speaker 1: and that that we can actually explain. When we look 1128 01:13:18,520 --> 01:13:21,799 Speaker 1: at scripture and so that was the whole motivation for writing, 1129 01:13:22,280 --> 01:13:25,120 Speaker 1: you know, Playing with Fire. And I love hearing from 1130 01:13:25,160 --> 01:13:28,719 Speaker 1: people on it because it kind of reinforces this idea. 1131 01:13:28,800 --> 01:13:30,840 Speaker 1: And we know that this is true because we see 1132 01:13:30,840 --> 01:13:33,160 Speaker 1: it in the box office numbers. It's a topic people 1133 01:13:33,240 --> 01:13:35,640 Speaker 1: want to talk about and people are interested in it, 1134 01:13:35,680 --> 01:13:39,160 Speaker 1: but they don't always feel comfortable having the conversation. Again, 1135 01:13:39,240 --> 01:13:42,080 Speaker 1: the book is Playing with Fire. His name is Billy halliwell, 1136 01:13:42,600 --> 01:13:45,320 Speaker 1: my friend, thank you for talking about the Christmas Star 1137 01:13:45,560 --> 01:13:49,160 Speaker 1: and thanks for spending some time with me.

Michael Pelka here sitting in for my friend 1145 01:14:40,200 --> 01:14:42,439 Speaker 1: Buck Sexton, giving him a little R and R, a 1146 01:14:42,520 --> 01:14:45,680 Speaker 1: little time off. In fact, I'll be here today and 1147 01:14:45,960 --> 01:14:48,479 Speaker 1: I'll come back a couple of days next week, and 1148 01:14:48,640 --> 01:14:52,920 Speaker 1: let's get this year wrapped up properly, and then we'll 1149 01:14:53,000 --> 01:14:55,760 Speaker 1: start worrying about twenty twenty one. Although I have good 1150 01:14:55,880 --> 01:15:00,120 Speaker 1: thoughts about twenty twenty one, I'm also focused on the 1151 01:15:00,280 --> 01:15:04,439 Speaker 1: vaccine and the virus and all that stuff. And I 1152 01:15:04,640 --> 01:15:07,759 Speaker 1: rely on a friend of mine, My buddy, doctor Michael 1153 01:15:07,920 --> 01:15:11,639 Speaker 1: Roisen from the Cleveland Clinic, is my go to guy 1154 01:15:11,840 --> 01:15:16,200 Speaker 1: for medical information medical research. He is the man behind 1155 01:15:16,360 --> 01:15:20,040 Speaker 1: the Ageproof Life series of books. He likes to tell 1156 01:15:20,120 --> 01:15:22,720 Speaker 1: people to live younger, and he also put out a 1157 01:15:22,760 --> 01:15:26,559 Speaker 1: book last year, a book called What to Eat When, 1158 01:15:27,120 --> 01:15:30,080 Speaker 1: And this year he added the what to Eat When Cookbook, 1159 01:15:30,120 --> 01:15:32,800 Speaker 1: which I use in my own kitchen. And he's joining 1160 01:15:32,920 --> 01:15:35,720 Speaker 1: us here on the show to talk about the vaccines 1161 01:15:36,400 --> 01:15:39,479 Speaker 1: and yeah, whether or not you should take one over 1162 01:15:39,600 --> 01:15:43,720 Speaker 1: the other, etc. Doctor Roysen, welcome, my friend. I am 1163 01:15:43,800 --> 01:15:46,439 Speaker 1: glad I'm here, and I should I mention that it's 1164 01:15:46,479 --> 01:15:49,120 Speaker 1: a great holiday gift if you're in the mood for 1165 01:15:49,200 --> 01:15:52,160 Speaker 1: a lastment a gift what to Eat When Cookbook. Oh 1166 01:15:52,240 --> 01:15:56,519 Speaker 1: that's perfect, yes, because everyone's other half loves to be 1167 01:15:56,640 --> 01:16:00,439 Speaker 1: given a book that says, here, make this stuff for me. Yeah, 1168 01:16:02,200 --> 01:16:06,400 Speaker 1: no it is. It's actually your cookbook is so simple 1169 01:16:06,680 --> 01:16:09,600 Speaker 1: and so easy to put together. And look, if you 1170 01:16:09,720 --> 01:16:12,760 Speaker 1: want to eat like real healthy, healthy, healthy stuff, all 1171 01:16:12,840 --> 01:16:14,439 Speaker 1: of it's in there. But if you want to eat 1172 01:16:14,520 --> 01:16:18,800 Speaker 1: like delicious stuff like chocolates and desserts, it's all in 1173 01:16:18,880 --> 01:16:22,639 Speaker 1: there too. So it covers everything and all but those 1174 01:16:22,720 --> 01:16:25,879 Speaker 1: that are healthy and the way we make them. Remember, 1175 01:16:25,960 --> 01:16:29,320 Speaker 1: food is a relationship. You only want to eat what 1176 01:16:29,560 --> 01:16:32,400 Speaker 1: loves your body back. You wouldn't marry someone who's trying 1177 01:16:32,439 --> 01:16:34,479 Speaker 1: to kill you. You shouldn't eat food that's trying to 1178 01:16:34,600 --> 01:16:37,960 Speaker 1: kill you. The good news about this is everything in 1179 01:16:38,040 --> 01:16:41,679 Speaker 1: the book is trying to help you live longer, younger, 1180 01:16:42,640 --> 01:16:47,600 Speaker 1: and it's not only healthy, but it tastes great and 1181 01:16:47,720 --> 01:16:51,120 Speaker 1: that's the key. Yeah, I agree with you, and I'm 1182 01:16:51,200 --> 01:16:53,559 Speaker 1: so into that. I didn't realize we were going all 1183 01:16:53,720 --> 01:16:58,840 Speaker 1: doctor phil on everybody today. Food is a relationship. You 1184 01:16:58,920 --> 01:17:01,800 Speaker 1: wouldn't put anything in your body if you knew it 1185 01:17:01,920 --> 01:17:04,080 Speaker 1: was gonna kill you. But we do that anyway, and 1186 01:17:04,240 --> 01:17:07,320 Speaker 1: you don't have to. And that's what doctor Royson's all about. 1187 01:17:07,400 --> 01:17:10,840 Speaker 1: Live Younger. I love that slogan, doc do you need 1188 01:17:10,920 --> 01:17:13,439 Speaker 1: that on merchandise? So we need to have doctor Royson 1189 01:17:13,520 --> 01:17:18,280 Speaker 1: March that says live younger. It's a good idea. I'm 1190 01:17:18,360 --> 01:17:21,080 Speaker 1: just throwing them out here. Doc, I'm just spitball, but 1191 01:17:22,720 --> 01:17:25,840 Speaker 1: I want to get to a little discussion about a 1192 01:17:25,880 --> 01:17:28,840 Speaker 1: couple of things that are related to COVID. We do 1193 01:17:29,000 --> 01:17:33,280 Speaker 1: have the second vaccines now on the ground and delivered 1194 01:17:33,320 --> 01:17:36,360 Speaker 1: to a lot of places around the country, the Maderna vaccine, 1195 01:17:36,800 --> 01:17:39,160 Speaker 1: and we've had the Fiser vaccine out for a week. 1196 01:17:39,360 --> 01:17:44,400 Speaker 1: I'm guessing there are more coming. If you're offered the vaccine, 1197 01:17:44,720 --> 01:17:47,479 Speaker 1: should you jump and take it. There aren't any more 1198 01:17:47,560 --> 01:17:52,800 Speaker 1: coming till about mid Januaries, when the first time we 1199 01:17:53,120 --> 01:17:56,800 Speaker 1: know that we're going to get a phase three report 1200 01:17:57,000 --> 01:18:02,080 Speaker 1: in that is when that sometime in mid January, maybe 1201 01:18:02,280 --> 01:18:06,720 Speaker 1: late januarys when Jay and Jay's will terminate or will 1202 01:18:06,800 --> 01:18:13,320 Speaker 1: complete its Phase three first two month analysis, and sometime 1203 01:18:13,360 --> 01:18:20,120 Speaker 1: around there also for the AstraZeneca Oxford vaccine. Okay, so 1204 01:18:20,280 --> 01:18:24,000 Speaker 1: two more in the pipeline, but maybe about a month away. So, 1205 01:18:24,320 --> 01:18:27,880 Speaker 1: as I was wondering, if you get the opportunity, you 1206 01:18:27,960 --> 01:18:30,160 Speaker 1: should jump and take one of these two and not 1207 01:18:30,280 --> 01:18:35,519 Speaker 1: wait for another. Yeah, the data, the two month data, 1208 01:18:35,600 --> 01:18:39,600 Speaker 1: and that's all we have so far on toxicity and 1209 01:18:41,000 --> 01:18:46,080 Speaker 1: meaning on safety and risks and benefits give you. And 1210 01:18:46,240 --> 01:18:49,360 Speaker 1: then when you factor in both deaths and long hauler, 1211 01:18:49,840 --> 01:18:53,240 Speaker 1: it's about a thousand to one odds for both of 1212 01:18:53,320 --> 01:18:57,000 Speaker 1: them in benefit. If you're under sixteen without coal morbidities, 1213 01:18:57,439 --> 01:19:00,000 Speaker 1: meaning the benefit to risk is a thousand to one, 1214 01:19:00,200 --> 01:19:02,880 Speaker 1: there is risk with the thousand to one, and the 1215 01:19:03,080 --> 01:19:07,880 Speaker 1: benefit to risk if you're over sixty or have comorbidities 1216 01:19:08,600 --> 01:19:12,600 Speaker 1: is about ten thousand to one as a minimum, And 1217 01:19:12,920 --> 01:19:16,720 Speaker 1: so you take those odds anytime. Now we don't have 1218 01:19:17,000 --> 01:19:21,960 Speaker 1: long term data, but the longer it goes after these people, 1219 01:19:22,520 --> 01:19:27,400 Speaker 1: you know, we'll have two million people inoculated with FISER 1220 01:19:27,520 --> 01:19:31,960 Speaker 1: pretty soon, and I understand eight million with Maderna by 1221 01:19:33,200 --> 01:19:37,720 Speaker 1: will have their first inoculation by December twenty eighth. And 1222 01:19:37,920 --> 01:19:43,160 Speaker 1: with that, if you've offered it, clearly there will be 1223 01:19:43,600 --> 01:19:47,320 Speaker 1: some more data on safety, and the longer it takes 1224 01:19:47,439 --> 01:19:51,360 Speaker 1: there'll be more data showing how safe it is or 1225 01:19:51,439 --> 01:19:54,519 Speaker 1: if there is a rare side effect. But right now 1226 01:19:56,000 --> 01:20:01,679 Speaker 1: the data very very good. Now, remember it says ninety 1227 01:20:01,800 --> 01:20:07,440 Speaker 1: four protective. That's a two months. That's a peak protection. 1228 01:20:07,960 --> 01:20:12,240 Speaker 1: So we don't expect that protection to continue for the 1229 01:20:12,960 --> 01:20:18,559 Speaker 1: next five years. We don't know how long it'll last, etc. Well, 1230 01:20:19,600 --> 01:20:22,360 Speaker 1: it looks like it'll last for a while. Doc if 1231 01:20:22,840 --> 01:20:25,519 Speaker 1: if we get to the point where the virus has 1232 01:20:25,640 --> 01:20:28,800 Speaker 1: no host to jump to, you know whatever, herd immunity 1233 01:20:28,960 --> 01:20:32,920 Speaker 1: is there with all everybody or majority of us vaccinated. 1234 01:20:33,360 --> 01:20:36,439 Speaker 1: Does a virus eventually die and go away or does 1235 01:20:36,479 --> 01:20:39,240 Speaker 1: it get like a dormant thing and wait for an 1236 01:20:39,280 --> 01:20:45,719 Speaker 1: opportunity to come back to life. It doesn't totally go away, 1237 01:20:45,960 --> 01:20:50,880 Speaker 1: meaning even polio now is in and that's the problem. 1238 01:20:51,040 --> 01:20:53,200 Speaker 1: You want to wipe it out totally so there are 1239 01:20:53,280 --> 01:20:56,479 Speaker 1: no cases, so it ain't any place and doesn't have 1240 01:20:56,560 --> 01:21:01,960 Speaker 1: an animal reservoir. If you get that like smallpox, you 1241 01:21:02,080 --> 01:21:04,320 Speaker 1: wipe it out and you can keep the vaccine in 1242 01:21:04,400 --> 01:21:10,360 Speaker 1: a small container if you will. The vaccine doses in 1243 01:21:10,439 --> 01:21:14,040 Speaker 1: a small container in the World Health Organization or in 1244 01:21:14,080 --> 01:21:18,200 Speaker 1: our CDC just in case there is an outbreak. But 1245 01:21:20,280 --> 01:21:23,400 Speaker 1: you can't have it exist in any country in the 1246 01:21:23,520 --> 01:21:28,120 Speaker 1: world because we just are too able and the virus 1247 01:21:28,280 --> 01:21:31,439 Speaker 1: is too able to hitchhike or ride on any old plane. 1248 01:21:32,240 --> 01:21:37,080 Speaker 1: So the problem is you need to really wipe it out, 1249 01:21:37,680 --> 01:21:41,080 Speaker 1: and that's going to take with this virus as effective 1250 01:21:41,160 --> 01:21:43,920 Speaker 1: as it is, it's going to take a major effort 1251 01:21:44,080 --> 01:21:47,680 Speaker 1: like we had for smallpox or like we have. And 1252 01:21:48,400 --> 01:21:50,840 Speaker 1: the problem is there are a couple of people, a 1253 01:21:50,880 --> 01:21:54,160 Speaker 1: couple of countries that don't believe in vaccinating against polio, 1254 01:21:54,880 --> 01:21:58,680 Speaker 1: and consequently polio can rear its ugly head again and 1255 01:21:58,760 --> 01:22:02,360 Speaker 1: that's why we still have to immunize against it. Well, 1256 01:22:02,479 --> 01:22:08,960 Speaker 1: I'm glad you brought up the contagiousness of this covid 1257 01:22:09,800 --> 01:22:14,040 Speaker 1: and we're now seeing this new I guess adapted version 1258 01:22:14,240 --> 01:22:17,439 Speaker 1: of it that's showing its head in England, and I 1259 01:22:17,640 --> 01:22:20,840 Speaker 1: understand it's here. Should we be worried about the new 1260 01:22:21,040 --> 01:22:29,599 Speaker 1: permutation the virus has taken on? This permutation doesn't look bad. 1261 01:22:30,720 --> 01:22:34,920 Speaker 1: What do I mean by that? It is more infectious, 1262 01:22:35,120 --> 01:22:41,400 Speaker 1: but not more lethal, and still vulnerable to the vaccines 1263 01:22:41,720 --> 01:22:45,080 Speaker 1: and the native immunity from the first There are two 1264 01:22:45,200 --> 01:22:49,280 Speaker 1: mutations that were beginning to hear about, and we don't 1265 01:22:49,400 --> 01:22:52,680 Speaker 1: know how real these are. One is from mink in 1266 01:22:52,920 --> 01:22:56,320 Speaker 1: Oregon and the other one is from one of the 1267 01:22:56,439 --> 01:23:03,520 Speaker 1: countries in Africa, where mutation is in the spiked protein 1268 01:23:05,160 --> 01:23:13,200 Speaker 1: significant enough so that it may be that the it 1269 01:23:13,439 --> 01:23:18,200 Speaker 1: may be in a way that avoids either our own 1270 01:23:18,360 --> 01:23:22,960 Speaker 1: antibodies against it, our own neutralizing antibodies, or the ones 1271 01:23:23,080 --> 01:23:27,800 Speaker 1: created by a vaccine. By the vaccine so far, those 1272 01:23:27,880 --> 01:23:30,439 Speaker 1: are the ones you got to worry about because you 1273 01:23:30,520 --> 01:23:33,360 Speaker 1: don't want to. I mean, they will still attack us 1274 01:23:33,920 --> 01:23:38,400 Speaker 1: even though we've seen the majority of this virus again 1275 01:23:38,439 --> 01:23:43,800 Speaker 1: because we have neutralizing we produced neutralizing antibodies against the 1276 01:23:44,000 --> 01:23:51,600 Speaker 1: spiked protein makeup, and so that's so more than the 1277 01:23:51,840 --> 01:23:55,320 Speaker 1: one in Great Britain, the ones we're hearing just a 1278 01:23:55,479 --> 01:24:01,439 Speaker 1: little bit about from apparently some animals minx in Oregon 1279 01:24:02,200 --> 01:24:05,920 Speaker 1: and from a small group in Africa. That's what you 1280 01:24:06,040 --> 01:24:11,200 Speaker 1: want to totally isolate because those are they if we 1281 01:24:11,320 --> 01:24:15,920 Speaker 1: don't have immunity and the vaccines we're producing are not 1282 01:24:16,120 --> 01:24:21,040 Speaker 1: effective against the new mutations, we're in big doodo. Okay, 1283 01:24:21,120 --> 01:24:22,800 Speaker 1: we don't want to be in big doodo. Doc, I 1284 01:24:22,880 --> 01:24:25,760 Speaker 1: got a hot minute left. I heard today, out of 1285 01:24:25,880 --> 01:24:29,679 Speaker 1: all the comorbidities, obesity is the worst and it makes 1286 01:24:29,760 --> 01:24:33,680 Speaker 1: your body more susceptible to these kinds of viruses. So 1287 01:24:33,840 --> 01:24:38,160 Speaker 1: that do we need a greater impetus to work on 1288 01:24:38,400 --> 01:24:42,439 Speaker 1: getting a little bit lighter in the coming year. Man, 1289 01:24:43,000 --> 01:24:47,160 Speaker 1: You know everybody wants to get lighter for just you know, 1290 01:24:47,320 --> 01:24:50,720 Speaker 1: just to look good. But boy, you're you are right on. 1291 01:24:51,000 --> 01:24:55,120 Speaker 1: We need a It's the major cause of type two diabetes. 1292 01:24:55,600 --> 01:24:58,360 Speaker 1: It's the major cause of heart disease. It's a major 1293 01:24:58,520 --> 01:25:02,920 Speaker 1: cause of cancer. It's a major cause of dementia. Um. 1294 01:25:03,160 --> 01:25:05,439 Speaker 1: I don't know what else to say other than and 1295 01:25:05,640 --> 01:25:13,360 Speaker 1: in addition, it's obviously a major cause of mental if 1296 01:25:13,400 --> 01:25:19,519 Speaker 1: you will, attitude, not being positive about yourself. So this 1297 01:25:19,800 --> 01:25:23,360 Speaker 1: is a this is a thing that we should tackle on. 1298 01:25:23,520 --> 01:25:26,120 Speaker 1: I don't know how to do it other than to say, 1299 01:25:27,240 --> 01:25:29,879 Speaker 1: let's get after it. I know how to do it. Everybody, 1300 01:25:29,960 --> 01:25:32,640 Speaker 1: get doctor Royson's book What to Eat When and What 1301 01:25:32,800 --> 01:25:35,920 Speaker 1: to Eat When Cookbook and follow it. Make it your 1302 01:25:36,040 --> 01:25:40,120 Speaker 1: dietary bible. Get that better relationship with food for the 1303 01:25:40,200 --> 01:25:44,280 Speaker 1: coming year. Thank you, bye, fred, I appreciate you. Thank you. 1304 01:25:44,960 --> 01:25:48,400 Speaker 1: And there he goes Doctor Michael Roysen of the Cleveland Clinic. 1305 01:25:48,479 --> 01:25:53,599 Speaker 1: Do you know Roisen also gets a mountain of research 1306 01:25:53,840 --> 01:25:57,600 Speaker 1: every week on all the newest trends in medicine. You 1307 01:25:57,720 --> 01:25:59,680 Speaker 1: know what we should do Next week we should have 1308 01:26:00,080 --> 01:26:03,400 Speaker 1: him back and we'll discuss some of the latest trends 1309 01:26:03,439 --> 01:26:06,000 Speaker 1: on how you can actually do what he says, and 1310 01:26:06,280 --> 01:26:10,160 Speaker 1: live younger. It's pretty simple stuff. He's changed the way 1311 01:26:10,200 --> 01:26:12,200 Speaker 1: I live my life. So why don't we do that. 1312 01:26:12,320 --> 01:26:16,120 Speaker 1: We'll do politics and news, a little lifestyle next week 1313 01:26:16,120 --> 01:26:18,479 Speaker 1: when we get doctor Royson back in here, and we'll 1314 01:26:18,520 --> 01:26:21,599 Speaker 1: talk about health and medicine and all that stuff.

Welcome back to The 1319 01:26:55,800 --> 01:26:57,840 Speaker 1: buck Sexton Show. We have to do a little good 1320 01:26:57,880 --> 01:27:00,560 Speaker 1: works this holiday season. I need you to meet a 1321 01:27:00,600 --> 01:27:03,720 Speaker 1: friend of mine, a veteran who served this country. Now 1322 01:27:03,800 --> 01:27:08,599 Speaker 1: she's helping other vets in need. My buddy, Gretchen Smith 1323 01:27:08,880 --> 01:27:12,240 Speaker 1: from Code of Vets. Hello, Gretchen, Welcome. Thank you for 1324 01:27:12,400 --> 01:27:14,960 Speaker 1: having me Mike. This truly is a blessing to be 1325 01:27:15,000 --> 01:27:17,040 Speaker 1: able to share our mission to the holidays. Well, I 1326 01:27:17,120 --> 01:27:19,880 Speaker 1: have to ask you, are those dog tags or dogs 1327 01:27:20,000 --> 01:27:25,880 Speaker 1: tags that are rattling? Those are dog tags? I figured 1328 01:27:25,920 --> 01:27:27,559 Speaker 1: that I don't know if you had a dog running 1329 01:27:27,600 --> 01:27:31,080 Speaker 1: around there, but I hear the dog tags Gretchen, as 1330 01:27:31,160 --> 01:27:34,479 Speaker 1: I said, served this nation. She has many members of 1331 01:27:34,560 --> 01:27:38,360 Speaker 1: her family who served. Her father served, and we lost 1332 01:27:38,439 --> 01:27:41,960 Speaker 1: your dad. And your dad's battle at the end of 1333 01:27:42,000 --> 01:27:44,280 Speaker 1: his life was one of the things that inspired you 1334 01:27:44,479 --> 01:27:49,320 Speaker 1: to begin this charity that directly helps veterans. I got 1335 01:27:49,360 --> 01:27:53,200 Speaker 1: that right, correct, Oh, yeah, yes you did. Dad was 1336 01:27:53,360 --> 01:27:55,479 Speaker 1: very chaotic throughout his life once he came home from 1337 01:27:55,479 --> 01:27:57,280 Speaker 1: the jungle. I never really did get the help that 1338 01:27:57,360 --> 01:28:00,559 Speaker 1: he needed with his PTSD, and we end up losing 1339 01:28:00,640 --> 01:28:03,519 Speaker 1: Dad to his battle when he was fifty seven years old. So, yeah, 1340 01:28:03,600 --> 01:28:06,280 Speaker 1: this is such a personal journey for me, Mike. And 1341 01:28:06,680 --> 01:28:08,840 Speaker 1: you know, I've been able to share my dad's story 1342 01:28:08,960 --> 01:28:11,600 Speaker 1: with many many veterans, saved quite a few lives and 1343 01:28:11,720 --> 01:28:15,080 Speaker 1: inspired some others to go get the help that they need. Well, 1344 01:28:15,200 --> 01:28:18,400 Speaker 1: that is so important. And I know your family just 1345 01:28:18,720 --> 01:28:22,640 Speaker 1: throughout this this month, the last month since I think 1346 01:28:22,640 --> 01:28:26,240 Speaker 1: it was just before Thanksgiving, I heard your household had 1347 01:28:26,320 --> 01:28:29,640 Speaker 1: the COVID run through it. Yeah, we did. There were 1348 01:28:29,680 --> 01:28:31,800 Speaker 1: fourteen of us that that got it. We you know, 1349 01:28:31,920 --> 01:28:34,240 Speaker 1: we all survived. We were sick for several days, but 1350 01:28:34,520 --> 01:28:36,559 Speaker 1: we made it three We pushed through. We're all feeling 1351 01:28:36,600 --> 01:28:40,040 Speaker 1: great now. But yeah, it was. It was quite the 1352 01:28:40,160 --> 01:28:42,840 Speaker 1: experience for the family, for all of us to get 1353 01:28:42,880 --> 01:28:44,800 Speaker 1: it at once. We kind of just muddled through it 1354 01:28:44,840 --> 01:28:48,400 Speaker 1: in the best we kid But yeah, yeah we survived fourteen. 1355 01:28:48,600 --> 01:28:53,320 Speaker 1: Did you live in a barracks? No, No, just we 1356 01:28:53,600 --> 01:28:56,040 Speaker 1: you know, we all got together for Thanksgiving. My father 1357 01:28:56,080 --> 01:28:58,200 Speaker 1: in law has advanced to Mincio. We just don't know 1358 01:28:58,320 --> 01:29:01,000 Speaker 1: how long we're going to have him around, and we 1359 01:29:01,120 --> 01:29:02,920 Speaker 1: needed to be there for him. And so, you know, 1360 01:29:03,080 --> 01:29:05,800 Speaker 1: we're not sure how we got it, but somehow we did, 1361 01:29:06,920 --> 01:29:08,840 Speaker 1: but we made it through. We pushed it together as 1362 01:29:08,840 --> 01:29:11,760 Speaker 1: a family. Okay. Well, one of our buddies is a 1363 01:29:12,040 --> 01:29:15,400 Speaker 1: doctor at the Cleveland Clinic and he tells everybody be 1364 01:29:15,640 --> 01:29:19,600 Speaker 1: wary of the long haul syndrome, the long haulers and 1365 01:29:19,720 --> 01:29:23,320 Speaker 1: the brain fog. And he said, make sure that even 1366 01:29:23,400 --> 01:29:26,439 Speaker 1: if you feel like you've you've gotten through it, get 1367 01:29:26,560 --> 01:29:29,040 Speaker 1: as much sleep as you can, and don't push it 1368 01:29:29,160 --> 01:29:32,360 Speaker 1: too hard until you feel the fog clear, because it 1369 01:29:32,520 --> 01:29:34,800 Speaker 1: will it will come back a little bit if you're 1370 01:29:34,840 --> 01:29:38,519 Speaker 1: not careful, So please please be careful. I know you're 1371 01:29:38,560 --> 01:29:42,479 Speaker 1: working hard though. As we approach Christmas and the end 1372 01:29:42,520 --> 01:29:46,759 Speaker 1: of the year, the Code of vets mission has gotten 1373 01:29:46,880 --> 01:29:51,120 Speaker 1: bigger you've felt, I think just judging from your posts 1374 01:29:51,200 --> 01:29:55,200 Speaker 1: on Twitter, you felt like there's a surge in veterans 1375 01:29:55,240 --> 01:29:58,880 Speaker 1: who are reaching out and it's it's getting very large 1376 01:29:58,920 --> 01:30:02,280 Speaker 1: and we need to help. I guess, yeah, it is, Mike. 1377 01:30:02,320 --> 01:30:06,559 Speaker 1: We're experiencing an unprecedented surge we've had in the past. 1378 01:30:06,640 --> 01:30:09,639 Speaker 1: I want to say maybe four days, roughly three hundred 1379 01:30:09,720 --> 01:30:13,280 Speaker 1: veterans have applied for direct assistance through us. It's a 1380 01:30:13,400 --> 01:30:15,760 Speaker 1: it's a massive undertaking for it because we are a 1381 01:30:15,880 --> 01:30:19,400 Speaker 1: smaller Oregon and team, but we have such a broad 1382 01:30:19,479 --> 01:30:22,800 Speaker 1: reach across the nation because we operate on social media, 1383 01:30:22,920 --> 01:30:24,320 Speaker 1: so we you know, our name is out there and 1384 01:30:24,360 --> 01:30:27,160 Speaker 1: we've grown so much, so we you know, we're taking 1385 01:30:27,200 --> 01:30:29,040 Speaker 1: these vets on one at a time. I actually did 1386 01:30:29,160 --> 01:30:33,160 Speaker 1: one post for sixty five veterans with one hundred children 1387 01:30:33,240 --> 01:30:36,080 Speaker 1: that are involved. We're you know, we have we're looking, 1388 01:30:36,240 --> 01:30:39,240 Speaker 1: you know, we're looking to try to secure them with 1389 01:30:39,520 --> 01:30:43,080 Speaker 1: roughly seventy seven thousand dollars. And there's a common thread, 1390 01:30:43,160 --> 01:30:45,360 Speaker 1: Mike that we need to talk about with these vets 1391 01:30:45,439 --> 01:30:48,439 Speaker 1: that they're running into, and that's utility disconnects. It's a 1392 01:30:48,560 --> 01:30:51,760 Speaker 1: true issue food and consistencies. So those are the one 1393 01:30:51,760 --> 01:30:54,640 Speaker 1: of the two top things that we're really zoning in 1394 01:30:54,960 --> 01:30:58,559 Speaker 1: on with these particular veterans coming our way is we're 1395 01:30:58,560 --> 01:31:01,879 Speaker 1: trying to keep their water running, lights on, and we're 1396 01:31:01,920 --> 01:31:04,240 Speaker 1: trying to keep food on the table through the holidays. 1397 01:31:04,280 --> 01:31:06,040 Speaker 1: That's so important for them to be able to have, 1398 01:31:06,280 --> 01:31:07,479 Speaker 1: you know, to be able to sit down as a 1399 01:31:07,560 --> 01:31:09,639 Speaker 1: family and eat together, and to have food in general. 1400 01:31:09,760 --> 01:31:13,559 Speaker 1: I mean food is a necessity. Yeah, it is. Let me, Gretchen, 1401 01:31:13,640 --> 01:31:15,960 Speaker 1: hang on, I need to talk directly to the audience. 1402 01:31:16,439 --> 01:31:18,720 Speaker 1: Do you guys hear what we're doing here. We're trying 1403 01:31:18,760 --> 01:31:22,360 Speaker 1: to get help to veterans, people who gave us our freedom, 1404 01:31:22,479 --> 01:31:26,640 Speaker 1: protected our freedom, and now because of whatever, they are 1405 01:31:26,760 --> 01:31:31,680 Speaker 1: compromised in their security, in food, security, in their living situation. 1406 01:31:32,040 --> 01:31:34,920 Speaker 1: And what this lady does she leads a mission of 1407 01:31:35,080 --> 01:31:38,840 Speaker 1: a small group of people who vets these veterans, finds 1408 01:31:38,840 --> 01:31:41,600 Speaker 1: out which ones truly are in need, and then she 1409 01:31:41,840 --> 01:31:45,960 Speaker 1: collects donations and they distribute it directly to them. They 1410 01:31:46,040 --> 01:31:48,800 Speaker 1: spend two percent, two sets. Out of every dollar people 1411 01:31:48,880 --> 01:31:53,679 Speaker 1: managed to give, two sets goes to paying the operational costs, 1412 01:31:53,760 --> 01:31:57,240 Speaker 1: which is so minimal. So I can't say it enough. 1413 01:31:57,360 --> 01:32:01,920 Speaker 1: Code of vets dot com, Code of vets dot com. 1414 01:32:02,160 --> 01:32:04,479 Speaker 1: If you can go there, if you can skip a 1415 01:32:04,640 --> 01:32:08,680 Speaker 1: Starbucks Double Cafe, Moca latte, whatever it is, for a 1416 01:32:08,800 --> 01:32:11,000 Speaker 1: day or two or a week, and can give it 1417 01:32:11,080 --> 01:32:14,200 Speaker 1: to a vet, you can keep lights on a hundred 1418 01:32:14,400 --> 01:32:18,360 Speaker 1: kids involved in this latest push. Gretchen, it breaks my 1419 01:32:18,640 --> 01:32:21,719 Speaker 1: heart every time I hear the stories, but it also 1420 01:32:21,920 --> 01:32:24,720 Speaker 1: lifts my heart when I hear you talk about the 1421 01:32:24,920 --> 01:32:28,559 Speaker 1: people who've stepped up, and I really, I really think 1422 01:32:28,680 --> 01:32:34,160 Speaker 1: you are on a divinely inspired mission.

I have some questions about things in the law, 1438 01:33:50,760 --> 01:33:55,040 Speaker 1: things that relate to the vaccine. Yeah, there are questions 1439 01:33:55,120 --> 01:33:57,439 Speaker 1: about whether or not people can be forced to take it, 1440 01:33:57,560 --> 01:34:00,560 Speaker 1: can they use a religious exemption? And I also have 1441 01:34:00,640 --> 01:34:04,040 Speaker 1: a crazy question about a lawsuit that I saw in 1442 01:34:04,160 --> 01:34:06,479 Speaker 1: the paper today. So let's get our buddy in here. 1443 01:34:06,720 --> 01:34:11,840 Speaker 1: Attorney author, public speaker Wendy Patrick. She is a prosecutor 1444 01:34:12,040 --> 01:34:15,240 Speaker 1: and gives us her legal opinions or at least some 1445 01:34:15,400 --> 01:34:20,120 Speaker 1: direction on things. Wendy, Welcome, my friend. It's always a pleasure, 1446 01:34:20,240 --> 01:34:22,840 Speaker 1: my happy to be here. Well, I'm glad you're here 1447 01:34:22,960 --> 01:34:25,240 Speaker 1: because there are a couple of stories that I needed 1448 01:34:25,320 --> 01:34:29,840 Speaker 1: to pick your legal brain on, and they relate to 1449 01:34:30,320 --> 01:34:35,400 Speaker 1: weird cases in the law and their current So I figured, 1450 01:34:35,520 --> 01:34:37,879 Speaker 1: you know, people might be looking at these same cases 1451 01:34:37,920 --> 01:34:40,439 Speaker 1: and saying, well, what the heck is going on here? 1452 01:34:40,560 --> 01:34:44,160 Speaker 1: For example, I sent you one and I think I 1453 01:34:44,320 --> 01:34:48,439 Speaker 1: know how Judge Judy would rule, even though she wouldn't 1454 01:34:48,520 --> 01:34:50,639 Speaker 1: like it. I'm talking about the case of the guy 1455 01:34:50,720 --> 01:34:56,479 Speaker 1: who's suing his parents because they destroyed his rather large 1456 01:34:56,560 --> 01:35:01,639 Speaker 1: collection of pornography. And I've never seeing anything like this case. 1457 01:35:01,800 --> 01:35:06,000 Speaker 1: But there it is. Yeah, you know, there it is, indeed, 1458 01:35:06,280 --> 01:35:08,360 Speaker 1: and it's one of those cases that you just can't 1459 01:35:08,400 --> 01:35:10,479 Speaker 1: make these things up, you know. I can say that 1460 01:35:10,640 --> 01:35:13,360 Speaker 1: after having a prosecutor for twenty three years still am 1461 01:35:13,840 --> 01:35:15,800 Speaker 1: and these are the types of keys that you never 1462 01:35:15,920 --> 01:35:19,280 Speaker 1: expect to see, either criminally or civilly. Now, this was 1463 01:35:19,320 --> 01:35:23,759 Speaker 1: a case where as you point out, the basically the father, 1464 01:35:24,000 --> 01:35:28,400 Speaker 1: the parents of this man destroy twelve moving boxes worth 1465 01:35:28,479 --> 01:35:33,519 Speaker 1: of pornographic films, magazines, and sex toys. But here comes 1466 01:35:33,600 --> 01:35:36,920 Speaker 1: the whopping price tech according to news reports, twenty nine 1467 01:35:36,960 --> 01:35:41,840 Speaker 1: dollars twenty nine thousand dollars. Yeah. Now, I'm not sure 1468 01:35:41,880 --> 01:35:44,360 Speaker 1: how you get up to that amount. But that's not 1469 01:35:44,520 --> 01:35:46,400 Speaker 1: even the end of it, because of course the police 1470 01:35:46,400 --> 01:35:50,000 Speaker 1: wouldn't take this case. So suing civilly, this man, who 1471 01:35:50,600 --> 01:35:53,320 Speaker 1: currently moved out of his parents' home, is seeking triple 1472 01:35:53,479 --> 01:35:57,360 Speaker 1: financial damages of approximately eighty seven thousand. That's a lot 1473 01:35:57,439 --> 01:35:59,439 Speaker 1: of money. There's no of course, no guarantee he's going 1474 01:35:59,479 --> 01:36:01,320 Speaker 1: to win or get anywhere near that amount. But the 1475 01:36:01,400 --> 01:36:04,200 Speaker 1: fact that we're talking about this lawsuit, this is a 1476 01:36:04,280 --> 01:36:06,000 Speaker 1: sign of the times, Mike, I'm not sure it's the 1477 01:36:06,080 --> 01:36:08,679 Speaker 1: kind of a sign that many people are happy to see. 1478 01:36:09,200 --> 01:36:13,080 Speaker 1: You know, I always get nervous when family members sue 1479 01:36:13,160 --> 01:36:18,200 Speaker 1: each other because we always like to think that blood 1480 01:36:18,320 --> 01:36:22,840 Speaker 1: is more important than money and that you can work 1481 01:36:22,920 --> 01:36:29,559 Speaker 1: it out ultimately. And how many boxes was that again? Yeah? 1482 01:36:29,720 --> 01:36:33,559 Speaker 1: Twelve moving box? Okay, this was had to have been 1483 01:36:33,600 --> 01:36:36,760 Speaker 1: an extensive collection that didn't twelve boxes and b value 1484 01:36:36,800 --> 01:36:38,640 Speaker 1: Now I don't know who does the valuation. Let's just 1485 01:36:38,720 --> 01:36:40,720 Speaker 1: be very clear. You know, you always want a fact 1486 01:36:40,760 --> 01:36:42,760 Speaker 1: check stories like this when you first see him. But 1487 01:36:42,880 --> 01:36:47,760 Speaker 1: the fact that this lawsuit actually is in court, and 1488 01:36:47,880 --> 01:36:50,599 Speaker 1: as far as the latest reporting, you've got to judge 1489 01:36:50,640 --> 01:36:53,560 Speaker 1: a degreed with the plaintiffs that his parents had no 1490 01:36:53,800 --> 01:36:57,320 Speaker 1: right to destroy his stash. So of course there's no 1491 01:36:57,439 --> 01:37:00,800 Speaker 1: final judgment. Get and the parents and this man have 1492 01:37:00,960 --> 01:37:03,400 Speaker 1: until February of next year to file written submissions of 1493 01:37:03,479 --> 01:37:05,639 Speaker 1: the amount of money. Oh so obvious, for that amount 1494 01:37:05,720 --> 01:37:08,400 Speaker 1: is in dispute um. This was at least you can 1495 01:37:08,439 --> 01:37:11,160 Speaker 1: talk about Judge Judy, there was a ruling that the 1496 01:37:11,240 --> 01:37:16,120 Speaker 1: parents had no right to destroy this. Um, I don't 1497 01:37:16,120 --> 01:37:18,400 Speaker 1: know what to call it. Let's just call it a stash, 1498 01:37:18,439 --> 01:37:20,040 Speaker 1: so we don't get into trouble with other ways of 1499 01:37:20,200 --> 01:37:24,280 Speaker 1: characterizing the collection. We'll call it a collection. Yeah, it 1500 01:37:24,400 --> 01:37:28,280 Speaker 1: was a collection of adult material. I just wonder if 1501 01:37:28,320 --> 01:37:30,800 Speaker 1: this made it all the way to the Supreme Court. 1502 01:37:31,000 --> 01:37:33,840 Speaker 1: Wasn't there a famous Supreme Court justice who was asked 1503 01:37:34,600 --> 01:37:37,559 Speaker 1: what is pornography? And he said I'll know it when 1504 01:37:37,640 --> 01:37:41,040 Speaker 1: I see it. Yeah. No, that was a That was 1505 01:37:41,080 --> 01:37:45,240 Speaker 1: a famous quote that will go down in history because 1506 01:37:45,640 --> 01:37:48,040 Speaker 1: it relates to so many different things. And it's interesting 1507 01:37:48,080 --> 01:37:49,840 Speaker 1: you bring that up, Mike, because that was not the 1508 01:37:49,960 --> 01:37:53,839 Speaker 1: issue here. Apparently there was no issue that was bornographic material. 1509 01:37:53,960 --> 01:37:56,080 Speaker 1: The only issue is how much is it worth? Now, 1510 01:37:56,200 --> 01:37:59,479 Speaker 1: many parents listening to this broadcast will say nothing. And 1511 01:37:59,640 --> 01:38:02,600 Speaker 1: that's basically what the dead was the sentiment shared by 1512 01:38:02,680 --> 01:38:04,760 Speaker 1: this man's father. He said he did the right thing, 1513 01:38:05,200 --> 01:38:07,080 Speaker 1: and according to him, quote I did you a big 1514 01:38:07,120 --> 01:38:09,280 Speaker 1: favor by getting rid of all this stuff for you, 1515 01:38:10,280 --> 01:38:12,519 Speaker 1: So he apparently thought it was worthless as well. Well, 1516 01:38:12,640 --> 01:38:14,519 Speaker 1: now it's in court and we'll see what it's worth. Wow, 1517 01:38:14,600 --> 01:38:17,000 Speaker 1: So a couple of thousand dollars a box. But if 1518 01:38:17,040 --> 01:38:21,400 Speaker 1: he gets trouble damages, does he have to prove there's 1519 01:38:21,439 --> 01:38:25,600 Speaker 1: not a jury in this? Is there? You know, it 1520 01:38:26,479 --> 01:38:29,880 Speaker 1: doesn't look like it's gone past the initial stages, but 1521 01:38:30,200 --> 01:38:34,880 Speaker 1: you can imagine cases like this would potentially end up 1522 01:38:34,880 --> 01:38:36,559 Speaker 1: in front of a jury that most case is settled, 1523 01:38:36,840 --> 01:38:38,880 Speaker 1: but this is not a case that has a lot 1524 01:38:38,920 --> 01:38:42,920 Speaker 1: of shall we say, jury appeal And you know that 1525 01:38:43,080 --> 01:38:45,320 Speaker 1: the lawyers on both sides, and you know, all lawyers 1526 01:38:45,360 --> 01:38:48,040 Speaker 1: take into consideration what the risks are going to be 1527 01:38:48,240 --> 01:38:50,920 Speaker 1: moving forward. So we'll keep an eye on this one, Mike. 1528 01:38:50,960 --> 01:38:52,439 Speaker 1: But I gotta tell you there are so many crazy 1529 01:38:52,520 --> 01:38:54,959 Speaker 1: legal stories out there that this will probably get eclipsed 1530 01:38:55,040 --> 01:38:59,519 Speaker 1: by something else pretty soon. Yeah. I just I'm wondering 1531 01:38:59,560 --> 01:39:02,160 Speaker 1: about the list of all the films he's going to 1532 01:39:02,280 --> 01:39:05,599 Speaker 1: claim that he owned, because they always were named after 1533 01:39:05,760 --> 01:39:10,000 Speaker 1: movies that were popular movies but weren't quite the same name, like, 1534 01:39:10,200 --> 01:39:15,400 Speaker 1: you know, Saving Private Ryan was. I think there was 1535 01:39:15,479 --> 01:39:19,280 Speaker 1: a version called Shaving Private Ryan. I'm not sure. And 1536 01:39:19,479 --> 01:39:21,439 Speaker 1: I just wonder if he's going to read the list 1537 01:39:21,520 --> 01:39:25,280 Speaker 1: of films in court. It could be question. You know, 1538 01:39:26,000 --> 01:39:28,719 Speaker 1: there are a couple lists, there are a couple of names, 1539 01:39:28,840 --> 01:39:30,479 Speaker 1: but of course I'm not going to be the one 1540 01:39:30,520 --> 01:39:32,320 Speaker 1: to save them on the air. And I know that 1541 01:39:33,040 --> 01:39:37,880 Speaker 1: most people keep things digitally anyway. So it was an 1542 01:39:37,960 --> 01:39:42,719 Speaker 1: interesting that in twenty twenty somebody actually had a collection 1543 01:39:42,880 --> 01:39:45,800 Speaker 1: that was not digitized. But we'll say that story for 1544 01:39:45,840 --> 01:39:48,439 Speaker 1: another day. We'll keep an eye of that. We'll keep 1545 01:39:48,479 --> 01:39:51,400 Speaker 1: everybody posted on how that comes out. It's not going 1546 01:39:51,479 --> 01:39:53,920 Speaker 1: to be on Judge Judy because it's well beyond the 1547 01:39:54,080 --> 01:39:57,040 Speaker 1: economic threshold. She only can go up to five grand. 1548 01:39:57,520 --> 01:40:01,479 Speaker 1: It's a small claims court, her court. In the time 1549 01:40:01,600 --> 01:40:05,720 Speaker 1: we have here, Wendy, there are questions about the vaccine 1550 01:40:05,760 --> 01:40:08,000 Speaker 1: and forcing people to take the vaccine, and you and 1551 01:40:08,080 --> 01:40:10,720 Speaker 1: I have talked about this. Will people have to do 1552 01:40:10,840 --> 01:40:13,240 Speaker 1: it for work? Will they have to do it in 1553 01:40:13,400 --> 01:40:16,519 Speaker 1: order to travel? And now there is the question of 1554 01:40:16,720 --> 01:40:21,040 Speaker 1: religious exemptions that people could say it's against my religion 1555 01:40:21,160 --> 01:40:24,479 Speaker 1: to take it, and we're seeing it now in terms 1556 01:40:24,520 --> 01:40:30,800 Speaker 1: of Christianity, Catholicism having questions about it, and people who 1557 01:40:30,880 --> 01:40:34,360 Speaker 1: are Muslims who are saying that they wonder if the 1558 01:40:35,320 --> 01:40:40,439 Speaker 1: vaccine is hilal or similar to kosher to our Jewish friends, 1559 01:40:40,840 --> 01:40:44,800 Speaker 1: if it's okay for them to take the vaccine. Yeah, 1560 01:40:44,920 --> 01:40:48,000 Speaker 1: these are really important questions, Mike, because we are now 1561 01:40:48,120 --> 01:40:50,799 Speaker 1: moving into an age where it's going to be no shoes, 1562 01:40:50,920 --> 01:40:55,680 Speaker 1: no shirt, no shot, no service. They're requiring vaccinations. I 1563 01:40:55,760 --> 01:41:00,719 Speaker 1: mean to fly for some types of hotels, many jobs 1564 01:41:00,720 --> 01:41:04,800 Speaker 1: of requiring that employees be vaccinated. So we're looking at 1565 01:41:05,000 --> 01:41:08,200 Speaker 1: this actually being a competitive advantage from many businesses. So 1566 01:41:08,680 --> 01:41:11,400 Speaker 1: you can imagine everybody wants to make a living. They 1567 01:41:11,439 --> 01:41:14,479 Speaker 1: shouldn't have to choose between health and wealth. So people 1568 01:41:14,600 --> 01:41:17,640 Speaker 1: are of different faiths or looking at whether or not 1569 01:41:17,880 --> 01:41:21,920 Speaker 1: this is something that they can legally, ethically morally do, 1570 01:41:22,200 --> 01:41:24,840 Speaker 1: and that's according to the religion. So a couple, as 1571 01:41:24,880 --> 01:41:28,479 Speaker 1: you say, religions have weighed in that again has declared 1572 01:41:28,520 --> 01:41:31,920 Speaker 1: it morally acceptable, for example, for Roman Catholics to receive 1573 01:41:31,960 --> 01:41:35,519 Speaker 1: COVID nineteen vaccines, even though it's basically some of them 1574 01:41:35,640 --> 01:41:40,040 Speaker 1: on research that used fetal tissue from abortions. Now you 1575 01:41:40,080 --> 01:41:42,280 Speaker 1: can imagine the rationale for this. They're looking at it 1576 01:41:42,439 --> 01:41:46,720 Speaker 1: in the broader picture. Perhaps there isn't a better way 1577 01:41:46,840 --> 01:41:49,720 Speaker 1: to make yourself safe and protect your community. They are 1578 01:41:49,840 --> 01:41:52,960 Speaker 1: very clear they're opposed to abortion. But when you're looking 1579 01:41:53,040 --> 01:41:56,120 Speaker 1: at the gravity the current pandemic and the lack of 1580 01:41:56,320 --> 01:42:00,160 Speaker 1: available alternatives that haven't been good, haven't been done that 1581 01:42:00,240 --> 01:42:02,519 Speaker 1: type of research, they just come up empty. So this 1582 01:42:02,600 --> 01:42:07,080 Speaker 1: seems like the best case scenario to protect yourself from COVID. 1583 01:42:07,400 --> 01:42:11,080 Speaker 1: Now you also mentioned Hellal's the same type of analysis 1584 01:42:11,640 --> 01:42:15,679 Speaker 1: that goes on there is they basically said the majority 1585 01:42:15,760 --> 01:42:19,040 Speaker 1: consensus and they're looking at by the way pork gelatine 1586 01:42:19,160 --> 01:42:22,840 Speaker 1: used in vaccines that it could be permissible because greater 1587 01:42:23,040 --> 01:42:27,439 Speaker 1: harm would occur if the vaccines weren't used. So this 1588 01:42:27,640 --> 01:42:30,560 Speaker 1: is something that's very significant because you remember, even in 1589 01:42:30,640 --> 01:42:35,160 Speaker 1: the US, you might claim a religious exemption for taking 1590 01:42:35,280 --> 01:42:37,960 Speaker 1: some sort of a vaccine. You'll have to, but you 1591 01:42:38,120 --> 01:42:42,679 Speaker 1: could normally. The two big exemptions would be underlying health 1592 01:42:42,760 --> 01:42:45,040 Speaker 1: conditions where you might have a reaction to it, and 1593 01:42:45,160 --> 01:42:47,760 Speaker 1: then the religious aspect of it as well. It's so 1594 01:42:47,920 --> 01:42:53,639 Speaker 1: amazing that the First Amendment carries such weight in our 1595 01:42:53,760 --> 01:42:57,519 Speaker 1: world today as it relates to this pandemic, and it's 1596 01:42:57,600 --> 01:43:00,840 Speaker 1: just interesting to me that we can actually have these discussions. 1597 01:43:00,880 --> 01:43:03,880 Speaker 1: I'm glad we can have them. But I also wonder, 1598 01:43:04,479 --> 01:43:07,679 Speaker 1: you know, what is the calculus people are doing. There's 1599 01:43:07,680 --> 01:43:10,640 Speaker 1: a religious calculus that's going on in the minds of 1600 01:43:11,120 --> 01:43:14,559 Speaker 1: some Christians and now some Muslims. And I wonder if 1601 01:43:14,680 --> 01:43:17,320 Speaker 1: maybe some of our Jewish friends are wondering if the 1602 01:43:17,439 --> 01:43:21,080 Speaker 1: vaccines are kosher. So you have to do that calculus. 1603 01:43:21,240 --> 01:43:24,880 Speaker 1: What's more important the risk that you might offend your faith, 1604 01:43:25,320 --> 01:43:32,080 Speaker 1: or your God or your personal health. It's a fascinating dilemma, 1605 01:43:32,240 --> 01:43:36,360 Speaker 1: and that it's happening at Christmas time is even more 1606 01:43:36,520 --> 01:43:39,800 Speaker 1: interesting to me. Well, you know, as Christians us where 1607 01:43:39,880 --> 01:43:42,920 Speaker 1: we pray about everything, and that's why Scripture basically invites 1608 01:43:43,000 --> 01:43:46,400 Speaker 1: us to seek God for guidance and seek counsel from 1609 01:43:46,479 --> 01:43:49,519 Speaker 1: godly accountability partners. Because some of these questions are tough. 1610 01:43:50,080 --> 01:43:54,080 Speaker 1: You are looking at basically questions with no good answers, 1611 01:43:54,200 --> 01:43:56,759 Speaker 1: and you're also looking at questions that have no precedent. 1612 01:43:56,840 --> 01:44:00,120 Speaker 1: We've never had a pandemic issue before. We're vaccine is 1613 01:44:00,160 --> 01:44:03,879 Speaker 1: so important, and so the priority is on saving lives 1614 01:44:04,080 --> 01:44:07,400 Speaker 1: and that seems to be where the balance of equities 1615 01:44:07,600 --> 01:44:09,559 Speaker 1: is leaning. Now, that doesn't mean that certain people won't 1616 01:44:09,560 --> 01:44:12,000 Speaker 1: say yes. I understand the rationale. Pope says it's okay. 1617 01:44:12,360 --> 01:44:15,080 Speaker 1: The Muslim faith says it's okay. I'm still personally not 1618 01:44:15,200 --> 01:44:16,840 Speaker 1: comfortable with it. I'm not going to do it. Well. 1619 01:44:16,880 --> 01:44:19,920 Speaker 1: Then you could qualify for an exemption, but not all 1620 01:44:20,000 --> 01:44:22,960 Speaker 1: employers will grant this depending on where you work. You 1621 01:44:23,000 --> 01:44:24,920 Speaker 1: can imagine if you're on the front lines in an 1622 01:44:24,960 --> 01:44:28,720 Speaker 1: emergency room, you have to be vaccinated. I mean, these 1623 01:44:28,760 --> 01:44:31,280 Speaker 1: have been around a long time, these rules. You have 1624 01:44:31,400 --> 01:44:33,600 Speaker 1: to be vaccinated before you go to school. I mean, 1625 01:44:33,640 --> 01:44:36,639 Speaker 1: there are lots of different rules that we've had for years, 1626 01:44:36,720 --> 01:44:40,719 Speaker 1: for decades, we just haven't had them with respect to COVID. 1627 01:44:40,840 --> 01:44:43,800 Speaker 1: So we're sort of generating these rules as we go along. 1628 01:44:43,800 --> 01:44:45,839 Speaker 1: A hundred years from now, when we have our next pandemic, 1629 01:44:45,880 --> 01:44:48,439 Speaker 1: will be all squared away. But that hasn't happened yet. 1630 01:44:48,640 --> 01:44:51,000 Speaker 1: I hope I'm around to see that, Wendy Patrick. I 1631 01:44:51,240 --> 01:44:53,760 Speaker 1: hope in a hundred years I'm feeling good and we're 1632 01:44:53,840 --> 01:44:56,560 Speaker 1: having this discussion. Take care of yourself and we'll be 1633 01:44:56,640 --> 01:44:59,000 Speaker 1: on the air talking about the next pandemic. That's right. O. 1634 01:45:00,080 --> 01:45:03,400 Speaker 1: Name is Wendy Patrick finder at Wendy Patrick PhD dot com. 1635 01:45:03,840 --> 01:45:07,000 Speaker 1: Thank you, my friend. Thanks Mike.

You're 1638 01:45:15,960 --> 01:45:19,600 Speaker 1: in the Freedom hide This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast. 1639 01:45:24,560 --> 01:45:27,400 Speaker 1: Welcome back to The Buck Sexton Show. Michael Pelca here 1640 01:45:27,800 --> 01:45:31,439 Speaker 1: wrapping up this episode, and just for all of you, 1641 01:45:31,760 --> 01:45:33,960 Speaker 1: thank you for those of you who reached out during 1642 01:45:34,000 --> 01:45:37,040 Speaker 1: the show tonight. I will be back next week doing 1643 01:45:37,040 --> 01:45:39,760 Speaker 1: a couple more nights for Buck, filling in for my 1644 01:45:39,880 --> 01:45:45,559 Speaker 1: old buddy here in the constitutionally protected free speech bunker 1645 01:45:45,760 --> 01:45:50,120 Speaker 1: in the woods of Arden, Delaware. Yeah. It's a little 1646 01:45:50,920 --> 01:45:56,200 Speaker 1: little known hideout that I have, and I'm surrounded by communists, anarchists, 1647 01:45:56,240 --> 01:45:58,680 Speaker 1: and socialists, so I have to keep it on the 1648 01:45:58,800 --> 01:46:01,479 Speaker 1: downlow most of the time. But I am here and 1649 01:46:01,720 --> 01:46:05,200 Speaker 1: we will be holding down the fort after Christmas. Hope 1650 01:46:05,240 --> 01:46:09,040 Speaker 1: you will join us. Speaking of Christmas, as Billy halliwell 1651 01:46:09,160 --> 01:46:14,760 Speaker 1: mentioned earlier, you still have tonight and tomorrow night to 1652 01:46:14,960 --> 01:46:20,960 Speaker 1: witness the great conjunction the Star, the Christmas Star in 1653 01:46:21,120 --> 01:46:23,800 Speaker 1: the skies. I hope you have clear skies. We had 1654 01:46:23,840 --> 01:46:26,800 Speaker 1: clear skies the other night. It was spectacular, but we 1655 01:46:26,920 --> 01:46:29,479 Speaker 1: also had cloudy skies on Monday, So I feel kind 1656 01:46:29,520 --> 01:46:32,479 Speaker 1: of burned by that, and you will be able to 1657 01:46:32,600 --> 01:46:36,479 Speaker 1: witness the two planets lining up and appearing to be 1658 01:46:37,120 --> 01:46:40,800 Speaker 1: what may have been the same thing the magi witnessed 1659 01:46:41,400 --> 01:46:47,560 Speaker 1: on the birth of Christ. Yeah, I believe that no coincidences, 1660 01:46:47,640 --> 01:46:50,519 Speaker 1: no coincidences at all. A couple of other things that 1661 01:46:50,600 --> 01:46:53,840 Speaker 1: I want to make sure we get to. Yeah, we know, 1662 01:46:54,120 --> 01:46:58,560 Speaker 1: jobless claims still over eight hundred thousand, But I do 1663 01:46:58,840 --> 01:47:02,200 Speaker 1: think we're going to see, based on all the indicators 1664 01:47:02,320 --> 01:47:05,880 Speaker 1: we are seeing, the economy will begin roaring back after 1665 01:47:06,000 --> 01:47:07,920 Speaker 1: the first of the year. Once we get through this 1666 01:47:08,160 --> 01:47:11,320 Speaker 1: latest surge of the COVID, we're going to see the 1667 01:47:11,439 --> 01:47:15,080 Speaker 1: effects of the vaccinations starting to build, and they will 1668 01:47:15,160 --> 01:47:19,759 Speaker 1: build quickly. The US government ordered another hundred million doses 1669 01:47:20,240 --> 01:47:24,559 Speaker 1: of the Fiser vaccine yesterday, so that is a good 1670 01:47:24,640 --> 01:47:28,720 Speaker 1: sign that that vaccine is being accepted, and not only that, 1671 01:47:28,880 --> 01:47:32,519 Speaker 1: the logistics that we've set up are working really well. 1672 01:47:33,200 --> 01:47:37,960 Speaker 1: So watch the economy to start surging. Will Donald Trump 1673 01:47:38,080 --> 01:47:41,360 Speaker 1: get any credit for it? I doubt it. Democrats are 1674 01:47:41,680 --> 01:47:43,200 Speaker 1: going to want to take credit for it. The mass 1675 01:47:43,280 --> 01:47:45,559 Speaker 1: media is not going to give Donald Trump any credit 1676 01:47:45,640 --> 01:47:49,559 Speaker 1: for it, so we'll see. We also have to set 1677 01:47:49,600 --> 01:47:53,519 Speaker 1: our calendars and look ahead to January sixth, going to 1678 01:47:53,560 --> 01:47:58,120 Speaker 1: be a very important day in this country. January fifth, 1679 01:47:58,200 --> 01:48:02,519 Speaker 1: of course as well with the runoff elections happening in Georgia. 1680 01:48:03,360 --> 01:48:05,840 Speaker 1: But January six many of us are going to be 1681 01:48:06,000 --> 01:48:09,519 Speaker 1: in DC. I might be in DC as well. So 1682 01:48:09,720 --> 01:48:13,120 Speaker 1: if you're planning on being in DC for whatever rally 1683 01:48:13,400 --> 01:48:17,160 Speaker 1: or public events are taking place, let me know and 1684 01:48:17,920 --> 01:48:20,280 Speaker 1: maybe we can all connect. Maybe we can all meet 1685 01:48:20,680 --> 01:48:23,839 Speaker 1: at the same place. It could be a very good idea. 1686 01:48:24,200 --> 01:48:27,360 Speaker 1: I'm just saying. I'm also keeping an eye out on 1687 01:48:27,560 --> 01:48:33,200 Speaker 1: the Durham investigation. John Durham's investigation has been going on 1688 01:48:33,360 --> 01:48:35,880 Speaker 1: too long for all of us, but blame some of 1689 01:48:35,960 --> 01:48:39,120 Speaker 1: that on COVID. But as we heard earlier today, with 1690 01:48:39,280 --> 01:48:42,600 Speaker 1: the executive orders signed by the President, the order that 1691 01:48:42,720 --> 01:48:48,000 Speaker 1: allows John Durham to present classified information, it looks like 1692 01:48:48,240 --> 01:48:51,920 Speaker 1: we may be close close to a grand jury handing 1693 01:48:52,040 --> 01:48:56,000 Speaker 1: down indictments. And wouldn't that just be a wonderful Christmas President, 1694 01:48:56,600 --> 01:48:59,679 Speaker 1: wouldn't that be Even if it comes after Christmas, Even 1695 01:48:59,720 --> 01:49:02,960 Speaker 1: if we get the indictments between Christmas and New Year's 1696 01:49:03,040 --> 01:49:05,320 Speaker 1: I still think that counts, you know, think of all 1697 01:49:05,320 --> 01:49:08,040 Speaker 1: the people who are going to have delayed deliveries due 1698 01:49:08,040 --> 01:49:11,160 Speaker 1: to last week's snowstorm, and they're still saying it's a 1699 01:49:11,240 --> 01:49:15,400 Speaker 1: Christmas present. So I am looking forward to finally seeing 1700 01:49:15,479 --> 01:49:19,320 Speaker 1: some action, maybe some perp walking, maybe some fraud marching. 1701 01:49:19,880 --> 01:49:24,120 Speaker 1: Thanks to the Durham investigation. The Special Council will go 1702 01:49:24,280 --> 01:49:27,760 Speaker 1: on no matter what, but this one could be a 1703 01:49:27,960 --> 01:49:32,920 Speaker 1: game changer, a big stinking deal. So let's all have 1704 01:49:33,000 --> 01:49:37,200 Speaker 1: a great Christmas and get back together here next week. 1705 01:49:37,800 --> 01:49:39,479 Speaker 1: As I said, I'll be here a couple of days 1706 01:49:39,560 --> 01:49:42,360 Speaker 1: next week, so please join me hang out. We will 1707 01:49:42,400 --> 01:49:44,640 Speaker 1: try and bring back some of the usual suspects. We 1708 01:49:44,720 --> 01:49:46,639 Speaker 1: have a couple of characters who want to get in here, 1709 01:49:46,960 --> 01:49:49,759 Speaker 1: and in the meantime, make sure you spend time with family. 1710 01:49:50,320 --> 01:49:52,840 Speaker 1: It's the most important thing, even though you've been locked 1711 01:49:52,880 --> 01:49:55,679 Speaker 1: down with them for the last eight months. Spend time 1712 01:49:55,720 --> 01:49:57,960 Speaker 1: with your family. They're the only ones you got and 1713 01:49:58,120 --> 01:50:00,439 Speaker 1: at the end of the day, when you go home, 1714 01:50:00,880 --> 01:50:04,200 Speaker 1: they have to let you in.
