1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,360 Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Buck 2 00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:07,920 Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. Welcome back in Clay Travis buck Sexton Show, 3 00:00:07,960 --> 00:00:10,680 Speaker 1: Thursday edition of the program. Appreciate all of you hanging 4 00:00:10,720 --> 00:00:13,080 Speaker 1: out with us. I am out in Las Vegas. Buck 5 00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:16,880 Speaker 1: is in Miami. We're getting ready for We're getting ready 6 00:00:16,880 --> 00:00:18,919 Speaker 1: for the super Bowl. Give you some fun picks here 7 00:00:19,040 --> 00:00:22,200 Speaker 1: at the end. But it is a historic day in Washington, DC, 8 00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:26,200 Speaker 1: which is where Julie Kelly is. She was there for 9 00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:28,880 Speaker 1: the Supreme Court arguments about whether or not Trump could 10 00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:32,240 Speaker 1: be removed from the ballot in Colorado specifically, but also 11 00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:35,920 Speaker 1: Maine then tried to follow in the wake of Colorado. 12 00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:39,440 Speaker 1: It was a beatdown of epic proportions for those of 13 00:00:39,479 --> 00:00:42,920 Speaker 1: you who listen to that argument or have heard some 14 00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:46,160 Speaker 1: of the clips that we have played. So I'll start 15 00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:48,520 Speaker 1: right here off the top of Julie, you were there, 16 00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:52,159 Speaker 1: you watched it. If you had to predict what the 17 00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:55,800 Speaker 1: Supreme Court is going to do here, what are the 18 00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:59,840 Speaker 1: votes going to be in this particular case, having heard 19 00:00:59,880 --> 00:01:01,720 Speaker 1: how it went, what would you predict? 20 00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:05,520 Speaker 2: I mean, I think anywhere from seven to two to 21 00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:09,280 Speaker 2: a nine zero decision. And you can even see the 22 00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:12,679 Speaker 2: long faces on MSNBC and CNN and look at the 23 00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:16,000 Speaker 2: post by Andrew Weisman and others, and they seem to 24 00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:21,480 Speaker 2: concede that this was a huge defeat for Colorado and 25 00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:24,520 Speaker 2: their team, their defendants and the Secretary of State there 26 00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:29,200 Speaker 2: because they were really obliterated by all of the justices, 27 00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:33,360 Speaker 2: some more than others. But I think that it's pretty 28 00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:37,839 Speaker 2: common knowledge now. Our expectation is that the Supreme Court 29 00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:41,600 Speaker 2: will reverse the Colorado Supreme Court. Again. It was only 30 00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:44,559 Speaker 2: a four to three decision of all Democratic appointed judges, 31 00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:49,680 Speaker 2: by the way, so this section three fourteenth Amendment controversy, 32 00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:53,040 Speaker 2: or that lead US attempt to remove Trump and others 33 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 2: from the ballot, should should be a done deal in 34 00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 2: terms of not being applicable. 35 00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:05,120 Speaker 3: Certainly, Trump, Julie the arguments as you were hearing them. 36 00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 3: I mean, one thing that has already come up. They 37 00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:13,519 Speaker 3: seem very sensitive over at MSNBC about whether this could 38 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:16,640 Speaker 3: be viewed in any way as a challenge to the 39 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 3: notion of an insurrection in the first place. 40 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 1: What do you make of that? 41 00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 2: Well, there was some pushback, not as much, of course, 42 00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:28,519 Speaker 2: as I would have liked to hear. The justices pushback 43 00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:31,800 Speaker 2: on the idea that this was indeed an insurrection, but 44 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:36,079 Speaker 2: there was doubt expressed as to the process and what 45 00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 2: the Colorado attorney Murray had to concede, you know, and 46 00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:43,480 Speaker 2: he was very confident in his argument, of course, but 47 00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:46,360 Speaker 2: he says, look, this was a five day trial. Donald 48 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:49,200 Speaker 2: Trump had the opportunity to come and tend the fun 49 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:52,280 Speaker 2: he didn't. It really didn't defend himself. Well, no one 50 00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:54,960 Speaker 2: was really taking that trial seriously. I mean, when you 51 00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 2: have Eric Swallwell as your star witness right then and 52 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:02,920 Speaker 2: there should lose ability. So you did hear Justices, especially 53 00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:07,919 Speaker 2: Amy Cony Barrett, expressed concern over Trump's due process rights 54 00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:13,280 Speaker 2: being violated, and this you know, this judge remember that 55 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:17,440 Speaker 2: the district judge did say too that yes, she believed 56 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,800 Speaker 2: that Trump was involved in an insurrection, but she didn't 57 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:24,360 Speaker 2: believe that section three fourteenth Amendment applied. But what the 58 00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:27,399 Speaker 2: justice is pushed back on is well, what was the evidence? 59 00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:33,080 Speaker 2: And at one point the attorney for Colorado said to 60 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:37,360 Speaker 2: Justice Alito, I believe we'll just go look at the record, 61 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 2: because he said, well, what proof do you have of 62 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,360 Speaker 2: an insurrection? He said, well, go look at the record. 63 00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 2: And Alito said what record, because of course they just 64 00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:46,920 Speaker 2: want you to look at the January sixth Committee report 65 00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 2: and the videos that they produced and think that that 66 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:51,600 Speaker 2: was enough. So there was a little pushback, not as 67 00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:54,000 Speaker 2: much as I would have liked, but this certainly will 68 00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 2: do some damage to the narrative that Trump insurrection inside 69 00:03:58,080 --> 00:03:59,880 Speaker 2: of this insurrection on January sixth. 70 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:03,400 Speaker 1: Okay, we think Julie, and this I know for a 71 00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:05,360 Speaker 1: lot of people out there, it's hard to keep track 72 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 1: on all this, and thank you for all the work 73 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 1: you're doing keeping track on these cases. We think there 74 00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:14,680 Speaker 1: are going to be three cases before the Supreme Court, 75 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 1: probably relating to Trump in twenty twenty four. This one, 76 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:21,480 Speaker 1: which I agree with you, and I think Buck would 77 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:25,119 Speaker 1: degree as well, at worse seven to two. At best, 78 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:26,760 Speaker 1: it would be nine to oho, and I really do 79 00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:30,240 Speaker 1: hope they get to nine. Oh, We've got the obstruction case, 80 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:33,080 Speaker 1: which I'm going to ask you to explain to people 81 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:36,839 Speaker 1: out there as well. And then Trump probably on Monday, 82 00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 1: is going to appeal his presidential powers argument to the 83 00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:44,560 Speaker 1: Supreme Court too. What do you expect. The next one 84 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 1: up that we know for sure is the obstruction case 85 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 1: to see whether or not two of the charges that 86 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:54,160 Speaker 1: Jack Smith brought against Trump are going to be a 87 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:57,119 Speaker 1: be tossed or or valid or not. And then also 88 00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 1: the presidential powers case. Do you think the Supreme Court 89 00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:02,640 Speaker 1: is going to take up presidential powers? How? If it all? 90 00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 1: Do you think this ruling could impact the other two 91 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:06,719 Speaker 1: Supreme Court rulings? 92 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:10,560 Speaker 2: Great question. So let's start with the immunity appellate ruling 93 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 2: that came down this week upholding Judge Huckkins order from 94 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:18,760 Speaker 2: December that said that presidents are indeed subject to criminal prosecution. 95 00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 2: The appellate panel came back three to zero upholding that 96 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:24,840 Speaker 2: that will now go to the Supreme Court. Now, they 97 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 2: put the kind that gave Donald Trump an ultimatum and 98 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:31,279 Speaker 2: they said, you need to file this application for an 99 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:37,120 Speaker 2: emergency stay before February thirteenth. Well, that requires five justices 100 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:40,680 Speaker 2: to agree to this emergency stay, which would basically put 101 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:44,279 Speaker 2: on hold the appellate ruling. If he doesn't, then he 102 00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 2: has to quickly expedite his his to ask the full 103 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:55,680 Speaker 2: court to review the appellate court decisions. That that could 104 00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 2: take time. They could put that on an expedited schedule. 105 00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 2: We should know more, you guys next week. How the 106 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:05,520 Speaker 2: Supreme Court responds to his application for the emergency stay 107 00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:10,120 Speaker 2: on the suppellate order. So that definitely will get to 108 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:13,239 Speaker 2: the Supreme Court, and it will, I believe at some point, 109 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:16,000 Speaker 2: because Jack Smith said that in his own silence you 110 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:18,719 Speaker 2: recalled that he tried to skip over the Appellate Court 111 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:21,120 Speaker 2: took that rare step of going right to the Supreme 112 00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:24,679 Speaker 2: Court and asking them to resolve the immunity question. Quickly 113 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:27,840 Speaker 2: they denied that. But now you're basically going to have 114 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 2: both sides on record asking the Supreme Court to consider this. 115 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:33,480 Speaker 2: So I don't see a way that they don't do that. 116 00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:38,200 Speaker 2: But to your point, a bigger concern for jack Smith, 117 00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:41,560 Speaker 2: aside from the immunity issue, has to be this fifteen 118 00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,240 Speaker 2: twelve feet to obstruction of an official proceeding. This is 119 00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:46,599 Speaker 2: the felony that's been slapped against more than three hundred 120 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:49,960 Speaker 2: and twenty J six ers half of Jacksmith's indictments for 121 00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 2: count indictment against Donald Trump. The Court already granted certain 122 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:57,799 Speaker 2: that in December, and what that means is the Court 123 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:02,839 Speaker 2: will probably in April hold arguments to determine whether this 124 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:09,640 Speaker 2: DOJ has appropriately interpreted and interpretated, interpreted, sorry and applied 125 00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:13,440 Speaker 2: this post and run tampering with document statute, which of 126 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:16,720 Speaker 2: course they haven't. So if the court then we'll kind 127 00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:19,560 Speaker 2: of know by oral arguments, just like needed today, which 128 00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:22,560 Speaker 2: way they might head. If it sounds like a majority 129 00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 2: of the court is going to reverse how doj has 130 00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:30,320 Speaker 2: interpreted that statute and applied it, that's going to spell 131 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 2: big trouble for Jack Smith. So right now there's this 132 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:36,440 Speaker 2: collision course had it at the Supreme Court, we kind 133 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:39,120 Speaker 2: of know where the Colorado issue is going. But these 134 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:43,160 Speaker 2: are greater issues related to Trump's legal jeopardy and certainly 135 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:46,360 Speaker 2: the validity of Jack Smith's case in Washington. 136 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:51,280 Speaker 3: Talking to Julie Kelly declassified as or substactly subscribe if 137 00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 3: you want in depth analysis and reporting on all these 138 00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:58,120 Speaker 3: issues we're talking about here, Trump legal fight, a J 139 00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 3: six situation, and more. And Julie, at this stage, how 140 00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:07,800 Speaker 3: confident are you in the belief only or the other 141 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:12,560 Speaker 3: that Democrats recognize that they have messed up doesn't mean 142 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 3: that it's over and they can't still get what they want. 143 00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 3: But Clay and I are looking at this and given 144 00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:23,720 Speaker 3: what's happened, whether it's the Atlanta prosecution with Fannie Willis 145 00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 3: looks like that's completely falling apart. The New York prosecution 146 00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:30,520 Speaker 3: is so weak that it may actually do more political 147 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 3: damage to Democrats to bring it regardless of the outcome. 148 00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:36,880 Speaker 3: The Florida judge doesn't seem like she's going to get 149 00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 3: this thing fast tracked before the election, although that could change. 150 00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:42,600 Speaker 3: And then you've got the J six stuff and DC trial, 151 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:45,600 Speaker 3: which we're talking about. Do you think that they're desperate 152 00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:47,240 Speaker 3: or do you think that there's some sense that this 153 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:49,680 Speaker 3: is still going roughly according to their plan? 154 00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:53,720 Speaker 2: I mean, I think the Washington case, especially with the 155 00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:57,120 Speaker 2: immunity appeal, and look, I feel more confident about the 156 00:08:57,120 --> 00:09:01,000 Speaker 2: Supreme Court's decision on the fifteen twelve matter than I 157 00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:05,880 Speaker 2: do on immunity unfortunately, So you know, this court is 158 00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:11,400 Speaker 2: still political. Even though they seemed in solidarity today, They're 159 00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:13,640 Speaker 2: going to have to split the baby somehow. They're not 160 00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 2: going to come out on Trump's side in the Colorado 161 00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:19,080 Speaker 2: case and immunity and fifteen twelve feet too. It's just 162 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:24,120 Speaker 2: not going to happen. So the question is what is 163 00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:27,240 Speaker 2: decided which way? But to your point, definitely the Fanny 164 00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 2: Willis indictment. That whole case is this falling apart. Her 165 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:34,040 Speaker 2: credibility pretty much shot. The New York case we don't 166 00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 2: even really hear anything about and more, And I'll tell 167 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:39,559 Speaker 2: you what happened in the Florida case this week, which 168 00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 2: I'm going to be writing about. Judge Aileen Cannon gave 169 00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:48,840 Speaker 2: Jack Smith a major SmackDown in court again basically saying 170 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:52,720 Speaker 2: he's attempting to keep under seal protective orders under seal 171 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:56,840 Speaker 2: information that should be made public. And so she files 172 00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:59,720 Speaker 2: an order this week saying that she is going to 173 00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:02,679 Speaker 2: un steal information that Jack Smith has tried to steal, 174 00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 2: including and I'm going to write about this this weekend, 175 00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:11,840 Speaker 2: you guys, a separate third investigation FBI investigation into Donald Trump. 176 00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:15,280 Speaker 2: So this is aside from the classified documents one and 177 00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:18,839 Speaker 2: aside from the J sixth one. She is ordering now 178 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:23,040 Speaker 2: the defense Trump's team who asked for it, She's going 179 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:27,920 Speaker 2: to permit that information to be unsealed. And also another 180 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:32,720 Speaker 2: person individual we don't know who that DOJ considered indicting 181 00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:35,400 Speaker 2: and I'll have speculation on that as well. So we 182 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:39,079 Speaker 2: could have major bombshells coming out of a classified documents case. 183 00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 2: Because Aileen Cannon on like most judges, is not acting 184 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:46,720 Speaker 2: as a represtentand for DOJ and it has denied a 185 00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:51,120 Speaker 2: few times now Jacksmith attempts to keep information under steal 186 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 2: not just from the public, but from Donald Trump and 187 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:56,320 Speaker 2: his co defendants as well. 188 00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:59,719 Speaker 1: Okay, last question for you, Julia, and that potentially is 189 00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:04,600 Speaker 1: going to be really fascinating in that classified documents case. So, 190 00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:08,880 Speaker 1: if we are right on timing roughly right, and that 191 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:12,440 Speaker 1: obstruction case opinion is going to come out from the 192 00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:16,840 Speaker 1: Supreme Court in late June early July, do you think, 193 00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:19,920 Speaker 1: and obviously this is a prediction question, do you think 194 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:23,360 Speaker 1: they want to open with the Alvin Bragg case and 195 00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:25,920 Speaker 1: that one in New York City could be going in March, 196 00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:28,960 Speaker 1: or do you think the earliest we could see Trump 197 00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:35,199 Speaker 1: on trial criminally is maybe late July early August at 198 00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:38,960 Speaker 1: the absolute best. How would you assess the timeline right 199 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:40,200 Speaker 1: now based on what we know? 200 00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:43,520 Speaker 2: All of it really depends on how the Court handles 201 00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 2: the immunity issue. If they fast track a decision on 202 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:50,520 Speaker 2: immunity presidential immunity, if they come back quicker on a 203 00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:54,559 Speaker 2: decision with that really as opposed to fifteen twelve, if 204 00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:57,640 Speaker 2: they uphold Judge Chuck in and the appellate panel and 205 00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:02,640 Speaker 2: conclude that yes, the President is subjected to criminal prosecution. 206 00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:06,679 Speaker 2: That will restart the pre trial calendar in Washington. And 207 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:09,840 Speaker 2: depending on what that happens, you know, the time that's 208 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:13,040 Speaker 2: the left between December when shud Chuck can put that 209 00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:16,920 Speaker 2: on hold because of the immunity appeal in any time 210 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:19,320 Speaker 2: that she is to make up there, that will restart 211 00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 2: the pre trial schedule. So it really depends on everything 212 00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:26,440 Speaker 2: hinges really right now, at least federal cases on this 213 00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:30,160 Speaker 2: immunity issue. I don't think anyone, including the Democrats, certainly Jacksmith, 214 00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:33,160 Speaker 2: want Elvin Bragg to get the first bite here on 215 00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:37,240 Speaker 2: a criminal trial. So it will really know more next 216 00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:42,040 Speaker 2: week how the court responds to Trump's application to stay. 217 00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:44,079 Speaker 2: We should get a better sense of the timetable. 218 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:46,040 Speaker 1: Then look at. 219 00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 3: Julie Kelly's declassified on substack and the Julie, that's a 220 00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 3: real bombshell you just dropped here on the air that 221 00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:55,800 Speaker 3: there may have been another whole FBI investigation of Trump 222 00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:57,240 Speaker 3: that we know nothing about so far. 223 00:12:57,320 --> 00:12:58,559 Speaker 1: So you're going to dive into that right. 224 00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:02,840 Speaker 2: Yes, to have something on my substack this weekend that 225 00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:06,960 Speaker 2: details what I suspect it was who was involved, including 226 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:10,439 Speaker 2: the Department of Justice and possibly Joe Biden's general counsel. 227 00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:15,080 Speaker 2: Speculation on what the FBI investigation was about, and who 228 00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:18,520 Speaker 2: I believe one of two individuals in Trump world that 229 00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:20,320 Speaker 2: they were also looking to indict. 230 00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:25,720 Speaker 3: Wow, all right, Julie Kelly, everybody declassified on substack.

This is the District 235 00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:41,040 Speaker 3: Attorney for New York City for Manhattan, and he is 236 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:45,200 Speaker 3: saying the grand jury has indicted seven in that attack 237 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:48,199 Speaker 3: of the on the NYPD. This is the migrants who 238 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:50,920 Speaker 3: had a gang attack effectively on a police officer in 239 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:53,360 Speaker 3: New York City, was on video. Everyone's outraged by it. 240 00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:56,679 Speaker 3: So maybe we'll have some UPDHVU on that here momentarily. 241 00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:59,000 Speaker 3: But in the meantime, you know, we like having a 242 00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:02,920 Speaker 3: safe in our home.

She reached national 275 00:15:56,040 --> 00:16:00,680 Speaker 3: media prominence because she brought charges against six officers in 276 00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:04,400 Speaker 3: Baltimore for the death of Freddie Gray, who was in 277 00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:08,840 Speaker 3: police custody. There were riots, and she chose to do 278 00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:12,920 Speaker 3: almost nothing about the riots, race riots breaking out. Now, 279 00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:16,760 Speaker 3: I believe all of the officers involved in the Freddie 280 00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:22,120 Speaker 3: Gray case were minorities. I think there I'm going on memory. 281 00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:24,240 Speaker 3: I think they were all black. If not, I think 282 00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:26,440 Speaker 3: maybe four or five of the six were black. Point 283 00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:29,840 Speaker 3: being she brought this case against them. Clay against the 284 00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:35,680 Speaker 3: officers destroyed police morale in Baltimore. Let the rioters they 285 00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:38,000 Speaker 3: care about Freddie Gray. The whole thing was such a sham. 286 00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:42,240 Speaker 3: It's just rage and anarchy. But she was a progressive. 287 00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:42,880 Speaker 1: She let it go. 288 00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:47,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, she's facing forty years in federal prison. Now, folks, 289 00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:52,040 Speaker 3: she was just found guilty of mortgage fraud and perjury. 290 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:56,160 Speaker 3: Numerous counts she could get Now, she won't get forty years. 291 00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:59,520 Speaker 3: She'll probably get four or five or something. But she 292 00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:04,240 Speaker 3: has been found guilty. She is a convicted felon, another 293 00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:09,040 Speaker 3: progressive prosecutor. Not a good person. And we were talking 294 00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:12,080 Speaker 3: off air. This is just the wire, right, I mean, 295 00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:14,359 Speaker 3: it's Baltimore. For those of you who have ever watched 296 00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:19,399 Speaker 3: the wire, the corrupt details surrounding the running of the 297 00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:23,639 Speaker 3: city of Baltimore. Unfortunately, there's a lot of truth and 298 00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:26,680 Speaker 3: so much of that story. What is it with social 299 00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:31,920 Speaker 3: justice obsessed prosecutors running a foul of the law. They're 300 00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:35,320 Speaker 3: supposed to be enacting the law, and yet they seem 301 00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:38,040 Speaker 3: unable to stay out of legal jeopardy themselves in so 302 00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:39,920 Speaker 3: many look at Fannie willis. 303 00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:44,639 Speaker 1: No look at convict that they they are emboldened and 304 00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:47,440 Speaker 1: believe buck that the law doesn't apply to them because 305 00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 1: they're on the side of truth, justice and the and 306 00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:53,600 Speaker 1: the persecution of their enemies. And as a result, they 307 00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:56,400 Speaker 1: open themselves up. Yeah, Krasner. 308 00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:59,680 Speaker 3: You know Chessa Boudin got the boot Krasner in Philadelphia, 309 00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:03,600 Speaker 3: but not because of the crimes. Krasner is a communist anyway. 310 00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:06,600 Speaker 3: We'll talk about more of this coming up in the meantime, 311 00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:11,040 Speaker 3: my friends. The turnkeyphrase with technology companies this year is 312 00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:16,359 Speaker 3: Artificial intelligence. AI is integrated into more everyday consumer products 313 00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:19,679 Speaker 3: and therefore there are more benefits for you. AI is 314 00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:23,040 Speaker 3: the future of tech in so many ways, and tech 315 00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:25,760 Speaker 3: expert Colin ted Arts believes this is the beginning of 316 00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:28,880 Speaker 3: a new era that could make you a lot of cash. 317 00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:32,360 Speaker 3: Colin watches the technology markets and the stocks that move 318 00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:35,800 Speaker 3: as a result of AI technology, and when the market 319 00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:38,840 Speaker 3: hit rock bottom in November twenty twenty two, Colin recommended 320 00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:40,879 Speaker 3: shares of a top software company, saying there was a 321 00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:43,920 Speaker 3: lot of upside. Same software companies up over two hundred 322 00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:47,639 Speaker 3: percent since then, Colin's now recommending a new AI company 323 00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:51,440 Speaker 3: he thinks could do even better.

Well, he doesn't really enforce the law very 330 00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:17,960 Speaker 1: much unless you're a marine trying to protect people on 331 00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:21,600 Speaker 1: the subway or a Republican who is running for political 332 00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:24,639 Speaker 1: office that he wants to try to get found the 333 00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:29,480 Speaker 1: flesh from. And last week, Buck, there was a super 334 00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:34,320 Speaker 1: viral video showing illegal immigrants beating up New York City cops. 335 00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:36,719 Speaker 1: I believe it was in Times Square, right outside one 336 00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:40,720 Speaker 1: of the hotels that these guys were in. They were arrested, 337 00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:44,840 Speaker 1: they were immediately released. The footage of their release also 338 00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:49,399 Speaker 1: went viral because they were flipping the birds so to speak, 339 00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:54,320 Speaker 1: and hand gestures for the media that was taking footage. 340 00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:57,760 Speaker 1: They then fled New York City because they were released 341 00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:01,000 Speaker 1: without having to post bail, no consequences. They went all 342 00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:05,879 Speaker 1: the way to Arizona, where they were caught then brought 343 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:09,560 Speaker 1: back to New York City. All of this happened because 344 00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:14,800 Speaker 1: Alvin Bragg was humiliated by the overwhelming response to the 345 00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:19,359 Speaker 1: lack of justice here, and now he is announcing, oh, 346 00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:22,800 Speaker 1: this was a heinous act. We're bringing charges. This is 347 00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:26,280 Speaker 1: what happens when something goes viral in New York. Remember 348 00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:29,560 Speaker 1: how often it doesn't go viral and there is no 349 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:33,240 Speaker 1: punishment whatsoever for many violent acts in New York City. 350 00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:35,919 Speaker 1: But here's Alvin Bragg announcing those charges based on our 351 00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:37,040 Speaker 1: thorough investigation. 352 00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:39,760 Speaker 5: I stand here today confident that we have identified the 353 00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:43,760 Speaker 5: roles of every person who broke the law and participated. 354 00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:44,159 Speaker 1: In this heinous attack. 355 00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:46,439 Speaker 5: As many of you know, the five who were arrested 356 00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:51,520 Speaker 5: last week, Gomez Zequiel, mister Warez, mister Roche, mister Reverend, 357 00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:55,959 Speaker 5: and mister Brito, they are additional people who are charged 358 00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:57,800 Speaker 5: in the dictment as to them, since they had not 359 00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:01,200 Speaker 5: been previously arrested. The indictment is sealed in their names. 360 00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:04,520 Speaker 5: But indictment in total is seven individuals. The five who 361 00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:07,400 Speaker 5: have had their charges unsealed all face felony charges. 362 00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:08,879 Speaker 1: Four face the top charge of. 363 00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:11,000 Speaker 5: Assault in the second degree, one face is the top 364 00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:13,600 Speaker 5: charge or tampering with physical evidence. As I said, the 365 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:16,160 Speaker 5: remaining two charges are unsealed. 366 00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:20,119 Speaker 3: C can I just there are two things here that 367 00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:27,520 Speaker 3: I think are really important takeaways. One is it was 368 00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:34,879 Speaker 3: just too embarrassing to have the migrant illegal aliens, and 369 00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:38,960 Speaker 3: I trust me, I understand we're supposed to call them migrants. 370 00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:42,080 Speaker 3: They're playing these word games the way it currently exists. 371 00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:47,840 Speaker 3: They're technically in process for asylum, so it's not technically 372 00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:51,720 Speaker 3: correct to call them illegal aliens, although they're frauds and 373 00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:55,480 Speaker 3: so they really are illegal aliens anyway. But migrants is 374 00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:57,560 Speaker 3: the term that everyone's using these days. I understand that 375 00:21:57,560 --> 00:22:01,920 Speaker 3: that's problematic too, and that's intentional, but it was too much. 376 00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:05,240 Speaker 3: It looked too bad for them to just be doing 377 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:08,760 Speaker 3: that after attacking our cops in New York City and 378 00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:13,440 Speaker 3: then beyond that, what kind of asylum seekers? That's part one, 379 00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:18,399 Speaker 3: Part two is what kind of asylum seeker gang assaults 380 00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:21,919 Speaker 3: law enforcement in the country that they desperately want to 381 00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:25,240 Speaker 3: make their new home because they're so scared to return 382 00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:28,000 Speaker 3: to their other home. We know they're lying, but just 383 00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:30,119 Speaker 3: think about this for a second. Like, if if you 384 00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:33,200 Speaker 3: were in a place that you were truly a refugee 385 00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:36,119 Speaker 3: in and that had given you refuge from which we 386 00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:41,400 Speaker 3: get the term refugee, you'd attack their cops. You'd kick 387 00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:43,760 Speaker 3: one of their police officers in the face when he 388 00:22:43,960 --> 00:22:49,480 Speaker 3: wasn't looking. This was symbolic of the attitude that not 389 00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:52,920 Speaker 3: all but a portion of these migrants clearly have, which 390 00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:55,719 Speaker 3: is that we are for the taking, We are to 391 00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:59,480 Speaker 3: be abused, we are to be taken advantage of. As 392 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:00,600 Speaker 3: the America people. 393 00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:05,160 Speaker 1: This clip, I'm going to play ties in with this 394 00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:08,920 Speaker 1: as well. Buck. The NBC News poll that came out 395 00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:13,879 Speaker 1: last week had Biden thirty five points behind Trump on 396 00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:20,399 Speaker 1: issues of border security, illegal immigration, migrants, crime, and the 397 00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:23,800 Speaker 1: money that it's costing. And I saw this because it's 398 00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:26,720 Speaker 1: starting to go viral. We mentioned I think fifty cent. 399 00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:30,800 Speaker 1: The wrapper was fired up about fifty three million dollars 400 00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:35,159 Speaker 1: in particular that was being given to illegal immigrants in 401 00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:39,000 Speaker 1: New York City. Now, stephen A. Smith, he's on ESPN. 402 00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:41,359 Speaker 1: We did a podcast. Stephen A and I have done 403 00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:43,720 Speaker 1: his podcast, he's done mine. We've talked about him some. 404 00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:49,280 Speaker 1: He is a listener sometimes of this program and other program. 405 00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:52,800 Speaker 3: Maybe he should have Nason sports expert Buck Sexton on 406 00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:54,840 Speaker 3: his podcast at some point we'll talk about all the 407 00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:55,480 Speaker 3: sports ball. 408 00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:59,600 Speaker 1: Very good question, very good suggestion. So here is stephen 409 00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:04,520 Speaker 1: A going off on the failures of Eric Adams on 410 00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:08,680 Speaker 1: the cost here for the migrant crisis and the fact 411 00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:12,960 Speaker 1: that lots of people black, white, Asian, Hispanic who are 412 00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:16,280 Speaker 1: struggling in America are saying, wait a minute, we don't 413 00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:19,560 Speaker 1: have money to take care of actual citizens, and we're 414 00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:23,359 Speaker 1: spending money on all of these guys and gals. Listen 415 00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:25,560 Speaker 1: to this take. It's gone viral, and I think it's 416 00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:29,600 Speaker 1: emblematic of the problems that Biden is facing on this 417 00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:31,080 Speaker 1: issue in particular. 418 00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:33,439 Speaker 6: How in the hell do we come up with a 419 00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:38,159 Speaker 6: fifty three million dollar pilot program for illegals. But folks 420 00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:41,119 Speaker 6: who are here illegally are born here. We don't have 421 00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:43,879 Speaker 6: enough of them. But you don't print that money to 422 00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:47,399 Speaker 6: help eradicate folks that are starving right here in the 423 00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:50,560 Speaker 6: streets of America who are born and raised here. This 424 00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:53,399 Speaker 6: is what I'm talking about. So when you have something 425 00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:55,640 Speaker 6: like that, what's the one way to eradicate it. Yes, 426 00:24:55,680 --> 00:24:57,840 Speaker 6: you got to have a flourisher in economy. Yes you 427 00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:00,600 Speaker 6: can't have inflation. Yes you can't be on a vergeon 428 00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:03,400 Speaker 6: or a session. Milk don't need to cost seven dollars. 429 00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:06,119 Speaker 6: Bread don't need to cost five dollars. Don't get me 430 00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:07,560 Speaker 6: started with how much sugar cost. 431 00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:09,639 Speaker 1: You could talk about employment all you want to. 432 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:12,520 Speaker 6: You can talk about the labor participation rate, but guess 433 00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:13,359 Speaker 6: what if. 434 00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:15,040 Speaker 1: You ain't making no damn money and. 435 00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:17,400 Speaker 6: You got to get two jobs to pay the same 436 00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:20,320 Speaker 6: prices or to buy the same amount of stuff that 437 00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:22,320 Speaker 6: you used to buy, and the price is higher than 438 00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:25,040 Speaker 6: it used to be because of inflation, they guess what, 439 00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:27,399 Speaker 6: what are you really accomplishing. That's why Trump is on 440 00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:30,520 Speaker 6: the vergion getting elected reelected because when he was in 441 00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:32,119 Speaker 6: office there was a flourish in the county. 442 00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:34,359 Speaker 1: I bok. 443 00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:38,199 Speaker 3: Everything he said there was true and correct. Did I 444 00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:40,560 Speaker 3: miss something? I think all of that was got on. 445 00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:49,200 Speaker 1: And I think increasingly again green. It impacts everybody, right, 446 00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:51,840 Speaker 1: how much you have in your wallet, how much you 447 00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:56,920 Speaker 1: can afford bite and hatch cost everybody you have all 448 00:25:56,960 --> 00:26:01,000 Speaker 1: gotten pay cuts because of the cost of goods, and 449 00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:03,280 Speaker 1: how much it is skyrocketed now. What they do buck 450 00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:05,680 Speaker 1: is they try to confuse people because they say, well, 451 00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:08,399 Speaker 1: inflation's down to two percent, two and a half percent 452 00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:11,040 Speaker 1: or three percent or whatever it is. Now. Problem is 453 00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:14,959 Speaker 1: all that ten percent inflation that we had nine point whatever, 454 00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:18,280 Speaker 1: it's all baked in now. It doesn't go away. So 455 00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:21,560 Speaker 1: if you actually said how much have goods gone up? 456 00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:26,440 Speaker 1: Since Joe Biden came into office, since COVID happened, you're 457 00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:28,720 Speaker 1: talking about thirty and forty percent increases. You know what 458 00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:31,399 Speaker 1: I saw yesterday? Buck, I couldn't believe. You know what? 459 00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:34,160 Speaker 1: You're gonna make minimum wage to work in a fast 460 00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:36,679 Speaker 1: food restaurant in California starting in a couple of months. 461 00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:41,840 Speaker 1: Do you know this? Twenty dollars an hour minimum wage 462 00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:46,479 Speaker 1: to work in a fast food restaurant in California. Twenty 463 00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:49,920 Speaker 1: dollars an hour. And a lot of people are starting 464 00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:52,800 Speaker 1: to realize. They're looking around and saying, wait, the fast 465 00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:55,080 Speaker 1: food costs are gonna have to go up a lot. Yeah, 466 00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:57,720 Speaker 1: because if you run a McDonald's or an inn Alberger, 467 00:26:57,800 --> 00:27:00,440 Speaker 1: or what a burger, Chick fil A, whatever you got. 468 00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:03,840 Speaker 1: I keep saying it because it's it. It angers me 469 00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:06,320 Speaker 1: every time I go through the drive through at Chick 470 00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:09,760 Speaker 1: fil A.

Things don't cost what they 475 00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:23,399 Speaker 1: should be costing. 476 00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:30,240 Speaker 3: The greatest ally that the Marxists in our midst have 477 00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:35,040 Speaker 3: when it comes to economics is ignorance. Ignorance of basic economics. That's, 478 00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:39,760 Speaker 3: if people understood the most basic concepts, things like supplying demand, 479 00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:44,199 Speaker 3: things like you know, cost, things like surplus, that they 480 00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:46,080 Speaker 3: wouldn't be able to support. 481 00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:46,800 Speaker 1: The policies that they do. 482 00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:50,960 Speaker 3: But they do because they don't know, and it makes 483 00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:54,680 Speaker 3: them feel good. And that's how you have. By the way, 484 00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:57,199 Speaker 3: so much of what's going on in California, and the 485 00:27:57,240 --> 00:28:00,119 Speaker 3: people who are very sophisticated and understand what's going on, 486 00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:03,400 Speaker 3: they're so rich that they don't care. Doesn't matter to them. 487 00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:05,399 Speaker 3: They sit atop the system that they're ruining. 488 00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:11,600 Speaker 1: All right, bucket's time, get your pins, get in your paper, 489 00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:16,359 Speaker 1: get your pencils, pull out your phones, hold it up, 490 00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:19,920 Speaker 1: so use Vegas.

Yeah, I think that that Uh well, 571 00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:34,160 Speaker 1: I think that's a tougher I think that's a tougher 572 00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:38,000 Speaker 1: argument defunding the police does. But what we talked about 573 00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:41,840 Speaker 1: for people out there who are confused, we are very 574 00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:47,120 Speaker 1: anti the idea of cleansing history. Right and and for 575 00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:50,080 Speaker 1: those of you who missed it, Stowewall Jackson's home, Robert E. 576 00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:52,000 Speaker 1: Willie's home, these are historical sites. 577 00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:55,560 Speaker 3: This was a play on defund but yeah, defunding history. 578 00:32:55,600 --> 00:32:58,600 Speaker 3: I don't think that disproportionately. I think that affects all 579 00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:01,400 Speaker 3: of us actually quite people in the sense that you 580 00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:04,040 Speaker 3: create ignorance of history. But yeah, no, defund the police 581 00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:08,080 Speaker 3: very bad. Defunding historical sites and historical museums. Also that 582 00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:11,080 Speaker 3: in this case, it's by eliminating their tax break in Virginia. 583 00:33:12,160 --> 00:33:14,920 Speaker 3: Patrick Patrick wrightes love your show. We follow the left 584 00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:18,840 Speaker 3: line of reasoning, should we uh not eliminate the biggest 585 00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:21,640 Speaker 3: symbol of racism and inequality? That would be the Democrat Party. 586 00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:25,680 Speaker 3: I mean appreciate, appreciate it. I don't think Democrats are 587 00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:28,000 Speaker 3: going to uh fall on fall on their swords, so 588 00:33:28,040 --> 00:33:28,440 Speaker 3: to speak. 589 00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:32,640 Speaker 1: But it is interesting how they'll be historically uh updating 590 00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:37,040 Speaker 1: of the Democrat Party, right, because historically the Democrat Party 591 00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:42,000 Speaker 1: fought to preserve slavery uh and uh, and they are 592 00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:46,840 Speaker 1: willing to acknowledge that history has changed and the Democrat 593 00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:50,280 Speaker 1: Party stands for something else now, so when it benefits them, 594 00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:54,680 Speaker 1: they're willing to be uh acknowledged that history evolves, right, 595 00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:57,800 Speaker 1: and that the way that we look at things in 596 00:33:57,840 --> 00:33:59,640 Speaker 1: the present day is different than we would have in 597 00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:02,720 Speaker 1: the past. That's why I use the MLK example because 598 00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:05,320 Speaker 1: it was true He wrote an advice column in Ebony 599 00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:07,680 Speaker 1: magazine back in the day, and he said that being 600 00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:11,200 Speaker 1: gay was a mental illness and that you should go 601 00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:15,279 Speaker 1: see a psychiatrist and try to cure yourself of that problem. 602 00:34:15,480 --> 00:34:17,920 Speaker 1: That was very common in the nineteen fifties. But are 603 00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:21,520 Speaker 1: we going to use that version of Mlk's perspective on 604 00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:24,359 Speaker 1: gay people to argue that he doesn't deserve a statue now? 605 00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:27,080 Speaker 1: I think that would be crazy. We can't historically be 606 00:34:27,200 --> 00:34:30,160 Speaker 1: adjusting and trying to put people hold them to modern 607 00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:30,880 Speaker 1: day standards. 608 00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:33,719 Speaker 3: Al in New York's got a call for us. 609 00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:34,359 Speaker 1: What's up?

The cost of everything has gone 621 00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:01,279 Speaker 7: up for him, no better shape than when we are 622 00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:03,120 Speaker 7: at ten dollars an hour from minimum wage. 623 00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:06,239 Speaker 3: Okay, well, thanks, thank you for calling it minimum wage 624 00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:08,359 Speaker 3: is actually really thank you for calling in ol Clay, 625 00:35:08,400 --> 00:35:11,160 Speaker 3: It's a complicated argument when you really look at the data. 626 00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:14,120 Speaker 3: A lot of people who receive minimum wage are not 627 00:35:14,719 --> 00:35:18,560 Speaker 3: the sole earner in their household, so that factors into 628 00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:21,120 Speaker 3: the data. Of times, their kids, a lot of times, 629 00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:24,319 Speaker 3: they're younger people. A lot of times the people that 630 00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:27,000 Speaker 3: you want to help by raising the minimum wage are 631 00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:30,600 Speaker 3: hurt because there are job losses that come from this too. 632 00:35:31,040 --> 00:35:34,360 Speaker 3: It's not as straightforward as all the workers make more money. 633 00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:36,080 Speaker 3: And then when you add into it that all the 634 00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:38,720 Speaker 3: workers are also going to be paying higher prices at 635 00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:42,080 Speaker 3: you know, for goods and services, then you start to 636 00:35:42,120 --> 00:35:44,160 Speaker 3: see that it doesn't have But you know what, Clay, 637 00:35:44,440 --> 00:35:46,760 Speaker 3: even on the right, people love a higher minimum wage. 638 00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:47,399 Speaker 1: It's the truth. 639 00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:50,920 Speaker 3: Doesn't matter what economic data you show. It's it feels 640 00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:52,640 Speaker 3: like a fairness thing for a lot of people. And 641 00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:55,440 Speaker 3: so minimum wages continue. 642 00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:57,520 Speaker 1: On twenty dollars an hour to work at a fast 643 00:35:57,520 --> 00:35:59,400 Speaker 1: food restaurant. You know what they're already starting to do 644 00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:03,439 Speaker 1: at fast food restaurants in California now of automate. They're 645 00:36:03,480 --> 00:36:06,239 Speaker 1: taking away the jobs, so the number of jobs is 646 00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:08,719 Speaker 1: probably gonna go down. I bet labor costs are going 647 00:36:08,760 --> 00:36:11,920 Speaker 1: to end up somewhat similar if they can manage to 648 00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:13,960 Speaker 1: get it all automated. Just keep an eye on this. 649 00:36:14,200 --> 00:36:17,759 Speaker 1: It's crazy and California just keeps spiraling more and more 650 00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:20,120 Speaker 1: out of control.
