We 6 00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:26,479 Speaker 2: appreciate all of you hanging out with us. The Trump 7 00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:31,440 Speaker 2: Show is back in earnest. We've got a lot of 8 00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:35,240 Speaker 2: stories to get to. We will talk about the border. 9 00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:38,879 Speaker 2: We've got Attorney General of Texas Ken Paxton coming on 10 00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:42,760 Speaker 2: to talk about Title forty two expiring at midnight tonight. 11 00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:46,760 Speaker 2: What is going to happen down there, Julio Rojas who 12 00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:49,440 Speaker 2: is also going to be with us from down at 13 00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:49,920 Speaker 2: the border. 14 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:51,319 Speaker 3: Both of those things to. 15 00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:56,160 Speaker 2: Come throughout the program, But we begin with what I 16 00:00:56,160 --> 00:01:00,279 Speaker 2: imagine many of you were doing last night. And I 17 00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:04,080 Speaker 2: treated this Trump town hall on CNN like it was 18 00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:04,920 Speaker 2: a sporting event. 19 00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:05,280 Speaker 3: Buck. 20 00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:08,720 Speaker 2: I had it set in my phone even yesterday when 21 00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:10,399 Speaker 2: we were on the program. I was trying to make 22 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:13,120 Speaker 2: sure that I knew exactly what time it was going 23 00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:16,080 Speaker 2: to be on, so I didn't miss a moment. And 24 00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:20,039 Speaker 2: I think big takeaways off the top was. 25 00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:22,720 Speaker 3: What a monster win for Trump. 26 00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:29,120 Speaker 2: And whoever on his staff got CNN to agree that 27 00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:32,520 Speaker 2: they would have a town hall filled with Trump supporters 28 00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:37,000 Speaker 2: and quote undeclared or undecided voters in New Hampshire buck 29 00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:40,560 Speaker 2: the moment Trump walked out and got a standing ovation, 30 00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:45,000 Speaker 2: I thought to myself, Oh my goodness, Caitlin Collins is 31 00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:49,360 Speaker 2: like an official or a referee in a game where 32 00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:53,040 Speaker 2: the home crowd is going to ride her in earnest. 33 00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:58,200 Speaker 2: I thought this was a monster win for Trump. Whatever 34 00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:00,680 Speaker 2: you think about what Trump said during the town hall, 35 00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:04,040 Speaker 2: and we will certainly dive into many of those different answers, 36 00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 2: what I would say is, and I tweeted this, and 37 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:10,520 Speaker 2: I believe Trump ended up sharing it from truth Social 38 00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:14,720 Speaker 2: that hour plus that he spent on CNN in the 39 00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:18,400 Speaker 2: Belly of the Beast, in the in the in the 40 00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 2: Lions cage, effectively with CNN throwing everything they had at him. 41 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:30,000 Speaker 2: There is absolutely no way on the planet that Joe 42 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 2: Biden would be capable of sitting with c and with 43 00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:37,760 Speaker 2: maybe with CNN and MSNBC where they just gave him softballs. 44 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:40,720 Speaker 2: But if you really put let's say, somebody to go 45 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,840 Speaker 2: after him on Fox News, like Caitlyn Collins went after Trump. 46 00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 2: I don't believe Biden would still be able to be 47 00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:48,919 Speaker 2: president after an hour that heck buck. 48 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:49,799 Speaker 3: We've said this before. 49 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:53,200 Speaker 2: If Joe Biden came on our radio show for an hour, 50 00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:56,440 Speaker 2: I think open invite, we would have him on, just 51 00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:59,080 Speaker 2: like we had RFK Junior on. I think at the 52 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:02,800 Speaker 2: end of that hour, with us asking him questions, the 53 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:05,840 Speaker 2: number one thing people would be saying, who are reasonable 54 00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:09,480 Speaker 2: and rational, is there's no way this guy can remain president. 55 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:12,639 Speaker 2: And I thought Trump, whether you love him or hate him, 56 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 2: he came in. He took everything they could throw at him, 57 00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:20,640 Speaker 2: and I think it was an overwhelming win for Trump 58 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:24,519 Speaker 2: and his campaign to be reelected in twenty twenty four. 59 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:26,880 Speaker 4: So the town hall was supposed to be a ninety 60 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 4: minute broadcast. I saw that, and they thought it would 61 00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:37,840 Speaker 4: go seventy five minutes, but they stopped it at seventy minutes. 62 00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:40,480 Speaker 4: This was out last night from a couple of reporters, 63 00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 4: so it seems like they wanted to walk off the 64 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 4: field as quickly. They threw in the towel like in 65 00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:50,839 Speaker 4: a boxing match. They had enough, they were done. It's 66 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:55,200 Speaker 4: fascinating the setup here. First of all, yes, I think 67 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 4: because people are arguing this two ways. On the one hand, 68 00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:03,000 Speaker 4: the CNN faithful, whatever you think of them, are disgusted 69 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 4: by this whole phenomenon. 70 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 3: They're disgusted with CNN. 71 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:09,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's what I mean. They're they're furious that CNN 72 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 4: and you even see you know, what's the hard left 73 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:16,080 Speaker 4: position on this, it's why did you platform him? Why 74 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 4: did you platform the leading Republican contender, which just goes 75 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:21,479 Speaker 4: to show you their plan is to silence. Their plan 76 00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:24,240 Speaker 4: is never to engage and actually battle it out in 77 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:26,720 Speaker 4: the realm of ideas. But beyond that, I if you're 78 00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:30,279 Speaker 4: just looking at this in terms of the strategy, what 79 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:34,479 Speaker 4: was the strategy? Initially when they announced this, I was thinking, Okay, 80 00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:38,200 Speaker 4: it's gonna be an ambush. Trump can handle that anywhere, right, 81 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:40,840 Speaker 4: Gonna be an ambush because I assumed it would be 82 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:46,520 Speaker 4: a mixed politically crowd of some some quote Democrats who 83 00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:49,840 Speaker 4: are just you know, anti Trump and anti Trump zealots 84 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:51,960 Speaker 4: to really hammer him, a couple of independence, a couple 85 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:55,760 Speaker 4: of Republicans. I mean, it is like CNN went out 86 00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:58,680 Speaker 4: to the reddest parts of Nassau County in New York 87 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 4: and was like, hey, who Trump, come on into see 88 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:05,240 Speaker 4: that headquarters. Put all of them and Long Island Republicans 89 00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:07,760 Speaker 4: are a staunch bunch. Let me tell you. Put all 90 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 4: of them in the crowd. And we're like, hey, so, uh, 91 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:12,920 Speaker 4: this is how we're gonna go. You know, I guess 92 00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:14,560 Speaker 4: this one was this one in DC or New York. 93 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 4: I'm trying to this is New Hampshire. Oh, I'm sorry 94 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:19,200 Speaker 4: it was. It was in New hamsrew still Nasau County, 95 00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:21,039 Speaker 4: same idea. I don't know what the redist county in 96 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:23,640 Speaker 4: New Hampshire would be. So you know, they they go 97 00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:26,160 Speaker 4: out there and so they had to Hampshire Rights who 98 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:30,000 Speaker 4: they say are Republicans yep, and they're all going after them, 99 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:33,559 Speaker 4: and they're all and and uh rather they're they're asking 100 00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:36,480 Speaker 4: the questions. And you're sitting here thinking what is the 101 00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:39,640 Speaker 4: win for CNN in this process? You have a crowd 102 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 4: that is cheering on Trump, you have a an anchor 103 00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:46,720 Speaker 4: who has never done anything like this before. And let 104 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:51,040 Speaker 4: me say, interviewing Trump when you're on team Trump, Let's 105 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:54,280 Speaker 4: be honest, Like interviewing Trump when you're a supporter, you know, 106 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:56,120 Speaker 4: when the bear is loose, you're not putting the bear 107 00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:58,479 Speaker 4: in the cage like he can just sort of go yep. 108 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:01,760 Speaker 4: She is trying to from the other side, from the 109 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:05,120 Speaker 4: other team, not just you know, get some questions in 110 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:08,039 Speaker 4: to shape the interview. She's trying to, you know, throw 111 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:11,159 Speaker 4: a wrench into him, and it just wasn't working at all. 112 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:13,919 Speaker 2: And the other thing to think about from Caitlyn. So, 113 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:16,279 Speaker 2: I know a lot of people went after Caitlyn Collins, 114 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:20,920 Speaker 2: so they had certainly in her ear, a team of 115 00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:24,839 Speaker 2: fact checkers at CNN furiously sitting in front of their laptops, 116 00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:28,360 Speaker 2: you know, trying to feed her information to blow up Trump. 117 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:34,200 Speaker 2: And I thought that Trump again right into the lions Den. 118 00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:38,080 Speaker 2: This is what so many people want. They want an 119 00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 2: unapologetic defense of Republican policies. Now, I didn't think Trump 120 00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 2: was perfect. I said afterwards, it's a home run. It 121 00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:51,680 Speaker 2: wasn't a grand slam. I think Buck, we can have 122 00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:54,640 Speaker 2: an interesting conversation about if you went back and watched 123 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 2: the tape, right, you win a game. Trump won the game, 124 00:06:57,680 --> 00:06:59,719 Speaker 2: and he dominated the game, and it was not particularly 125 00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 2: clo right. 126 00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:03,000 Speaker 3: But even when you win a game, and even if you. 127 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 2: Dominate, you'll go back and watch the film and you'll say, oh, 128 00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:10,480 Speaker 2: you know what, when we got this question, we could 129 00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:12,120 Speaker 2: in the same way that you go back and break 130 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 2: down the game film. There are opportunities I thought where 131 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 2: he could have leveled more hits on Biden. But one 132 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 2: thing that jumped out to me in particular was buck 133 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:26,160 Speaker 2: one mention. I think of Ron DeSantis, he basically was 134 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:30,880 Speaker 2: already running a presidential campaign. The idea that this was 135 00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 2: a Republican primary town hall is it felt like he 136 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 2: was already in the general lie. 137 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 4: So that's the part of this that that feels disjointing, 138 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 4: that doesn't really make much sense from, you know, the 139 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:45,040 Speaker 4: CNN perspective. Their audience is mad at them for even 140 00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 4: having Trump. Trump got to just do his thing up there, 141 00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:52,680 Speaker 4: and he's super I mean, he's super entertaining. It's an 142 00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 4: enormous advantage. Whatever someone thinks of Trump, it's an enormous 143 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:59,200 Speaker 4: advantage to be as entertaining and engaging as he is 144 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 4: and to be funny and to look like nothing really 145 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:04,960 Speaker 4: bothers him. It all rolls off him. But the other 146 00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 4: part of this is they say it's a Republican primary 147 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 4: town hall. No issues that are being fought out not 148 00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:14,800 Speaker 4: that there's a whole lot of fighting going on right 149 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 4: now in the primary, but no issues that are being 150 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,680 Speaker 4: fought out in the primary were really the focus. Like 151 00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:25,080 Speaker 4: all Republicans agree Jan six, treatment of prisoners rather of 152 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:28,480 Speaker 4: people that have been is bad, right. All Republicans agree 153 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:32,480 Speaker 4: on a whole range of the issue. Three trillion is 154 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:34,880 Speaker 4: not good, right, and the border. And so it was 155 00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:37,839 Speaker 4: either those things where we have total Republican agreement or 156 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 4: Trump very Trump's specific things. So you didn't get into 157 00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:43,920 Speaker 4: some of the areas where I think it would have 158 00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:46,840 Speaker 4: been more you know that it would have advanced the 159 00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:50,960 Speaker 4: conversation on the right in any real way. They ran 160 00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:54,080 Speaker 4: a it was a town hall for the general election, 161 00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:58,480 Speaker 4: run in the very earliest days of a primary. And 162 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:03,199 Speaker 4: it just feels like the whole vision of this was 163 00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:06,720 Speaker 4: strange from a CNN perspective for us. Look, it's great, 164 00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:10,199 Speaker 4: but it doesn't really change. There was no one's changing 165 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:12,200 Speaker 4: their mind. But it was entertaining for us to see 166 00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:14,480 Speaker 4: Trump to be Trump and do his thing. I don't 167 00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:16,880 Speaker 4: think you're winning over voters with that last night, because 168 00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:20,640 Speaker 4: it wasn't also really addressing issues that independence will be 169 00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:24,200 Speaker 4: looking at. So it was it was a little off 170 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:26,160 Speaker 4: in some ways in terms of what is this really, 171 00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:28,640 Speaker 4: what's the focus of this, Like, what are we trying 172 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:31,040 Speaker 4: to show? They just wanted to have a CNN attack 173 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:35,199 Speaker 4: on Trump that drastically failed. Great, but doesn't seem like 174 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:37,520 Speaker 4: it made any sense from a CNN perspective, and it 175 00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:40,160 Speaker 4: seems like there's a lot that's left as open territory. 176 00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:44,200 Speaker 2: To me, the CNN move was we are willing to 177 00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:45,440 Speaker 2: talk to both sides. 178 00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:45,680 Speaker 5: Now. 179 00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 2: That's why they had Trump on for I think the 180 00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 2: town hall. I think that was the win, to the 181 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:54,440 Speaker 2: extent there was any win at all for CNN. I 182 00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:57,640 Speaker 2: also think they believed that they would elevate because news 183 00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:01,320 Speaker 2: also came out that Caitlin Collins getting the nine pm 184 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:04,960 Speaker 2: Eastern I believe that news broke because we were texting 185 00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:07,160 Speaker 2: about it and they wanted to put her on a 186 00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:10,320 Speaker 2: prominent stage and basically be able to advertise the fact 187 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 2: that she's going to be their new host. But what 188 00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:17,120 Speaker 2: struck me over and over again, and I don't think 189 00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 2: it gets enough attention, is Trump is probably the best 190 00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:28,400 Speaker 2: television president that we have had since Reagan. And what 191 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:30,960 Speaker 2: I think is interesting about that is Reagan was a 192 00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:34,280 Speaker 2: professional actor. So it's not a surprise that someone who 193 00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:37,720 Speaker 2: has made his living in front of a television camera 194 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:43,080 Speaker 2: would be particularly skilled, a droit able to use television 195 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:48,280 Speaker 2: in a way that advances his message so succinctly and 196 00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:51,880 Speaker 2: so perfectly. Trump came to television later in life, and 197 00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:55,560 Speaker 2: obviously with The Apprentice and everything else, but my goodness, 198 00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:59,200 Speaker 2: when he reached into his jacket and pulled out his 199 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:02,600 Speaker 2: own like I've been a creature of the media though 200 00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 2: as long as we've been alive, he is so theatrical 201 00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 2: in understanding what makes good television, and it was so 202 00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:15,800 Speaker 2: compelling and almost impossible to look away. Now eight hundred 203 00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 2: and eight two two eight eight two will get your reactions, 204 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:20,560 Speaker 2: because I'm sure many of you had them as well. 205 00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:25,719 Speaker 2: In terms of did it actually change anything, I think 206 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:28,920 Speaker 2: it's such an interesting question because Buck, you and I 207 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 2: know can we get attacked all the time in media too. 208 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:32,920 Speaker 2: And when I first started off in media, it was 209 00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 2: really upsetting sometimes to get attacked. And then I realized 210 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 2: what Trump has said, Sometimes all publicity is good publicity 211 00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:45,160 Speaker 2: pretty much unless you're facing criminal charges. In Trump, Trump 212 00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:48,559 Speaker 2: may be arguing that even criminal charges is good publicity. 213 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:50,920 Speaker 2: I mean Martha Stewart certainly went to prison, came back 214 00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:55,280 Speaker 2: and was even better. But to me, even when people 215 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:59,080 Speaker 2: expect to hate you, I bet there were people who 216 00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:03,679 Speaker 2: watched that CNN show last night and they went in 217 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:07,000 Speaker 2: saying I hate Trump. He's the anti Christ, he is 218 00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:11,280 Speaker 2: the devil incarnate. And when you watch that for seventy minutes, 219 00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:14,560 Speaker 2: I think you might disagree with him. But I think 220 00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:17,320 Speaker 2: it was hard to leave that seventy minutes and have 221 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:20,120 Speaker 2: a worse opinion. Now, look, it may only be ten 222 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:24,400 Speaker 2: to fifteen percent that are persuadable of that CNN audience 223 00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 2: in the first place, but I don't think anybody finished 224 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 2: that town hall and said I hate Trump more than 225 00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 2: I did before, and I like CNN more than I 226 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:36,160 Speaker 2: did before. All of the equities I would say from 227 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:38,439 Speaker 2: this event moved into the Donald Trump, the or to 228 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:42,720 Speaker 2: call him. Two interesting things happened after the town hall, 229 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:45,320 Speaker 2: which I joined like three minutes in, and then I 230 00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:47,440 Speaker 2: had to try to find it to watch the first 231 00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:49,160 Speaker 2: three minutes today go to clan. 232 00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:50,560 Speaker 3: But we've got the whole thing up. 233 00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:52,640 Speaker 4: You have the whole thing up. It kind of feels 234 00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:55,120 Speaker 4: like CNN doesn't want you to be able to find 235 00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:57,439 Speaker 4: this easily. You would think this would be such a 236 00:12:57,559 --> 00:12:59,920 Speaker 4: ratings draw. Go to clanbuck dot com. We have it 237 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:01,600 Speaker 4: right at the top of the page. You can see 238 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:03,360 Speaker 4: the whole thing, or any part of it. I missed 239 00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:05,200 Speaker 4: the first three minutes. I forgot the timing of it, 240 00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:07,400 Speaker 4: but then I stayed and watched a lot of the 241 00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:11,440 Speaker 4: after action, you know, the post Townhall analysis. First of 242 00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:16,560 Speaker 4: all CNN the weeping, rending of garments, gnashing of teeth, 243 00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:19,880 Speaker 4: the sadness and the outrage from the CNN angers was 244 00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:22,280 Speaker 4: a site to behold itself. That's not surprising at all. 245 00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:26,199 Speaker 4: But they had this panel though of essentially Trump voters, 246 00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:28,040 Speaker 4: and the first question they asked them, I think we 247 00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:29,679 Speaker 4: actually have this audio. Maybe we'll play we come back. 248 00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:32,400 Speaker 4: The first question they asked is did this make you 249 00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:35,560 Speaker 4: feel like Trump is? Did it make you more favorable 250 00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:39,720 Speaker 4: to him, less favorable to him, or neutral? And maybe 251 00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:41,320 Speaker 4: we could play this and come back and everyone can hear, 252 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:44,959 Speaker 4: because I thought that the panel for most people nailed 253 00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 4: what the real answer to this is. 254 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:47,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm a little bit. 255 00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:48,880 Speaker 2: I understand because I made a living for a while 256 00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:51,640 Speaker 2: talking about sports and not actually being involved in the game. 257 00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:55,640 Speaker 2: But I only watch the event, so I put it 258 00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:57,800 Speaker 2: on for the start. I turned it off as soon 259 00:13:57,840 --> 00:13:59,960 Speaker 2: as they said goodbye, so I didn't see a scene 260 00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:02,400 Speaker 2: bit of analysis. I just watched it for myself, kind 261 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:05,040 Speaker 2: of how I'll watch sports in general. We're just a 262 00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:08,800 Speaker 2: few days away from celebrating Mom's nationwide. 263 00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:10,280 Speaker 3: This Mother's Day.

I know this is the biggest 308 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:27,200 Speaker 5: show in the country. But we world famous authors, We're 309 00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:29,320 Speaker 5: just We're a special breed. We look at the world 310 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:32,280 Speaker 5: differently and it look I know it's an honor for you. 311 00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:34,200 Speaker 5: So I'm happy. I'm happy I could do this. 312 00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:37,520 Speaker 4: Your humility and Clay's humility. It is the Hulk versus 313 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:40,120 Speaker 4: the thing. I have to say, you guys are both 314 00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:42,120 Speaker 4: lacking and confidence at all times. 315 00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:45,480 Speaker 2: It would be a great confidence off between Jesse and I. 316 00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:47,960 Speaker 2: So here's here's a good question for Jesse on the 317 00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:51,040 Speaker 2: common soft What are you absolutely awful at? 318 00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:55,920 Speaker 5: Awful at anything, artistic? Anything? Now, to be fair, I'm 319 00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:59,000 Speaker 5: white trash. So we grew up to Kelly's. We are 320 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:03,600 Speaker 5: a construction family from Ohio, the Ross Belt, total construction family. 321 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:06,199 Speaker 5: No one in the family and I mean nobody. Nobody 322 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:10,120 Speaker 5: can sing, nobody can dance, nobody can draw, nobody can 323 00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:13,880 Speaker 5: play an instrument. There's no creativity there at all, other 324 00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:16,120 Speaker 5: than the world famous book that you're releasing. Well, other 325 00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:18,639 Speaker 5: than being a well famous author. Obviously, that's just different. 326 00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:21,200 Speaker 5: Now I'm more like Shakespeare Inaca. 327 00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:23,960 Speaker 4: This is a little bit disappointing because we figured, since 328 00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:27,080 Speaker 4: hunter Biden can sell his finger paintings for fifty k each, 329 00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:29,920 Speaker 4: you know you probably could pick up some maybe be 330 00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:33,760 Speaker 4: a sculptor or something. But speaking of Biden and politics, 331 00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:36,880 Speaker 4: and that's the smoothest transition anyone's ever heard. What did 332 00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 4: you think about what we saw last night with Trump 333 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:43,280 Speaker 4: up on stage? Caitlyn Collins, formerly of The Daily Caller, 334 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:47,399 Speaker 4: now CNN's next it Lady, what do you think? 335 00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:49,679 Speaker 5: I'm of two minds about it. 336 00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:49,960 Speaker 3: One. 337 00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:53,400 Speaker 5: I think CNN did Caitlyn Collins wrong. I'm a big 338 00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:57,000 Speaker 5: believer that you set your employees up for success. Caitlyn 339 00:17:57,119 --> 00:18:00,560 Speaker 5: Collins is like an adorable little puppy. She's way too 340 00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:03,359 Speaker 5: stupid and meek to stand on stage with Trump. It 341 00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:05,760 Speaker 5: was not just dominated. Trump, of course, is going to 342 00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:06,960 Speaker 5: dominate that little mouse. 343 00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:10,359 Speaker 4: It was like putting a Pomeranian in with a grizzly bear, 344 00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 4: which is just not fair. To the Pomeranian, it. 345 00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:14,920 Speaker 5: Wasn't I'm the only but no, I hate Caitlyn Collins. 346 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:17,440 Speaker 5: Don't get me wrong, I hate CNN. I legit felt 347 00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:20,160 Speaker 5: bad for that chick has no chance against a dominant 348 00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:22,600 Speaker 5: personality like Trump, and he's got ten times the IQ 349 00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:23,359 Speaker 5: she does. 350 00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:27,280 Speaker 2: So I like Caitlyn other than the fact that she's 351 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:31,880 Speaker 2: an Alabama fan and uh and again to Bucks points 352 00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:33,840 Speaker 2: she used to work at the Daily Caller. Here is 353 00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:35,800 Speaker 2: what I think. The number one story is that almost 354 00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:42,640 Speaker 2: nobody's talking about the Trump team negotiated CNN into the 355 00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:46,200 Speaker 2: basement CNN somehow is breed think about this? As soon 356 00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:49,560 Speaker 2: as it started, Trump came out to a standing ovation. 357 00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:53,040 Speaker 2: It was like they allowed him. If you're a comic, 358 00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:55,160 Speaker 2: you want to go out in front of a crowd 359 00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:57,080 Speaker 2: that already likes you, because even if you're not on 360 00:18:57,160 --> 00:18:59,919 Speaker 2: your a game, they like your jokes, they're gonna respond 361 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:04,320 Speaker 2: favorably to you. They put Caitlin Collins into a situation 362 00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:07,679 Speaker 2: where she was the only person who didn't like Trump 363 00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:11,680 Speaker 2: in that entire building, probably other than the cameramen, And 364 00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:15,880 Speaker 2: then they allowed every response that he gave, he got 365 00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:19,800 Speaker 2: like a standing ovation. People laughed and it made it 366 00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:23,800 Speaker 2: such an optical disaster for CNN that that's why, guys, 367 00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:26,040 Speaker 2: I think they cut it short. Oh, because I think 368 00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:30,280 Speaker 2: they were like, oh, my goodness, we got negotiated into 369 00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:34,000 Speaker 2: the basement here and whoever at Trump's team said yeah, 370 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:35,919 Speaker 2: we'll do CNN, but we want to do it with 371 00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:38,879 Speaker 2: a town hall. We wanted to be Trump voters and 372 00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:42,280 Speaker 2: undecided voters and everybody in that room. When he got 373 00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:44,120 Speaker 2: a standing ovation walking in, I was. 374 00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:45,399 Speaker 3: Like, Oh, this is going to be something. 375 00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:48,479 Speaker 2: And I knew that when AOC is sending out tweets 376 00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:50,320 Speaker 2: about how angry she is, you know it was a 377 00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:51,200 Speaker 2: big win for Trump. 378 00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:54,440 Speaker 5: Yeah. Look, they totally set her up for failure. And 379 00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:56,919 Speaker 5: I think his team had to have negotiated because you 380 00:19:56,960 --> 00:19:59,359 Speaker 5: pointed out the audience. They had to have negotiated some 381 00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:01,719 Speaker 5: kind of deal on the audience because you know, CNN 382 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:03,440 Speaker 5: would have loaded up that audience with a bunch of 383 00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:06,200 Speaker 5: communists in there, yes, if they could. Instead they put 384 00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:09,000 Speaker 5: a bunch of normal people in there. So CNN wants 385 00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:11,960 Speaker 5: to talk about January sixth, Trump wants to talk about 386 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:14,680 Speaker 5: securing the border. But that's what normal people want to 387 00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:16,840 Speaker 5: talk about. But at the same time, I set them 388 00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:19,840 Speaker 5: up two minds. My other mind is, okay, it's nice. 389 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:23,120 Speaker 5: It was enjoyable. It's always enjoyable to watch Trump beat 390 00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:26,040 Speaker 5: up on journalists. It doesn't matter though, it's not going 391 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:28,800 Speaker 5: to be important for the election itself. We have to 392 00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:30,600 Speaker 5: ballot harvest, we have to get out the vote. We 393 00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:33,200 Speaker 5: have to do all the blocking and tackling that's not sexy. 394 00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:35,920 Speaker 5: The right has got to wake up and realize that's 395 00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:38,080 Speaker 5: where the election will be won or lost. We can 396 00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:39,920 Speaker 5: do a new town hall and beat the crap out 397 00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:42,600 Speaker 5: of CNN every day between now an election day, and 398 00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:45,159 Speaker 5: we're going to lose if the RNC continues to ignore 399 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:48,240 Speaker 5: get out the vote efforts and ballot harvesting efforts. They're 400 00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:51,520 Speaker 5: playing chess and we're playing checkers. So we can all 401 00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:53,200 Speaker 5: pat ourselves on the back today. Is it going to 402 00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:53,960 Speaker 5: win us? See election? 403 00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:54,400 Speaker 6: Now? 404 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:56,560 Speaker 4: You know, I've seen a few people and talk to 405 00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 4: a few people Jesse who work in that realm are 406 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:04,479 Speaker 4: our mutual buddy ned Ryan for example, Molly Hemingway, who 407 00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:08,040 Speaker 4: wrote a great book Rigged on the Election, really understands 408 00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:11,920 Speaker 4: how it was rigged and what the machinery was that 409 00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:15,359 Speaker 4: was used against Trump and how they played that game. 410 00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:19,359 Speaker 4: Both of them have taken, whether on Twitter or on podcasts, 411 00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:22,159 Speaker 4: that I've spoken to them on the position that it 412 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:25,320 Speaker 4: doesn't matter who the Republican nominee is at this point. 413 00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:29,840 Speaker 4: If that machinery of getting the votes where we need them, 414 00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:33,040 Speaker 4: when we need them isn't fixed, we are going to 415 00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:35,560 Speaker 4: lose the presidency in twenty twenty four. What do you 416 00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:35,960 Speaker 4: make of that? 417 00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:38,320 Speaker 5: I make of it that it's the absolute truth. People 418 00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:40,880 Speaker 5: will on our side, and I understand this. They will 419 00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:42,919 Speaker 5: look at like the twenty twenty election, and they'll look 420 00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:45,800 Speaker 5: at Donald Trump packing stadiums, and they'll make fun of 421 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:47,960 Speaker 5: Joe Biden because he poops in his pants in front 422 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:50,200 Speaker 5: of the Pope and because he couldn't get ten people 423 00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:52,160 Speaker 5: in a room and he can't talk it or hold 424 00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:54,800 Speaker 5: a thought in his head, and they'll say this is ridiculous. 425 00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:57,000 Speaker 5: And they'll look at that vegetable who just got elected 426 00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:59,840 Speaker 5: senator out of Pennsylvania, John Fetterman, and they'll say this, 427 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:03,840 Speaker 5: it's ridiculous. But it's not ridiculous. It's actually very easily explained. 428 00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:07,600 Speaker 5: They have developed a professional ballot harvesting operation in the 429 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:11,119 Speaker 5: Democratic Party where they could put up another vegetable they 430 00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:13,439 Speaker 5: could actually put up ahead of broccoli and get that 431 00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:16,040 Speaker 5: person elected because they will chase down the ballots to 432 00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:18,640 Speaker 5: bring in the votes they need to have that person elected. 433 00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:21,199 Speaker 5: But the right still thinks it's about town halls, and 434 00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:23,840 Speaker 5: it's about issues, and it's about candidate quality, and it's 435 00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:26,800 Speaker 5: about all these things because the right wants sexy. The 436 00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:30,080 Speaker 5: right ones the triple reverse half back pass for the dutchdown. 437 00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:33,560 Speaker 5: Look how fast the receiver is. And Democrats understand it's 438 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:36,680 Speaker 5: about the fat left tackle, and it's about tackling. It's 439 00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:40,320 Speaker 5: about blocking and tackling. They've mastered blocking and tackling. We're 440 00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:43,159 Speaker 5: fifty years behind. Either we catch up fifty years in 441 00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:45,960 Speaker 5: the next year, or we're done speaking. 442 00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:46,560 Speaker 3: Of blocking and tackling. 443 00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:49,199 Speaker 2: Michigan's a lot better now at blocking and tackling than 444 00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:51,960 Speaker 2: Ohio State, which is the last time I saw you was. 445 00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:53,040 Speaker 3: In Columbus, Ohio. 446 00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:58,000 Speaker 2: But Buck obviously is not all in on the sports universe. 447 00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:00,639 Speaker 2: But you see this on your show too, and we 448 00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:03,000 Speaker 2: were just talking about it in the first hour. Every 449 00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:05,760 Speaker 2: time you say something positive about Trump, the DeSantis people 450 00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:08,720 Speaker 2: are upset. Every time you say something positive about DeSantis, 451 00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:10,919 Speaker 2: the Trump people are upset. And I've analogized it in 452 00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:13,359 Speaker 2: many ways to sports, where when you talk about a 453 00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:17,399 Speaker 2: big rivalry Michigan Ohio State, for instance, every team is 454 00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:20,640 Speaker 2: so tribal and committed to their side that anything other 455 00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:22,879 Speaker 2: than your team is the greatest that's ever existed in 456 00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:26,400 Speaker 2: the history of mankind is wrong. And I'll point out 457 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:28,880 Speaker 2: and throw myself under the bus here that I said, 458 00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:32,280 Speaker 2: put every dollar you have on Ohio State on the 459 00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:35,600 Speaker 2: big noon kickoff show right right before I saw you 460 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:38,600 Speaker 2: and your family there. But how much do you see 461 00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:43,160 Speaker 2: this already? Even though DeSantis hasn't officially announced this looming 462 00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:46,719 Speaker 2: battle between the Trump and DeSantis team, because whether it's 463 00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:50,040 Speaker 2: Vivi Ramaswami, Nikki Haley, whoever else is going to enter 464 00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:52,520 Speaker 2: into the race, I think it's acknowledged by the Trump 465 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:55,480 Speaker 2: people and the DeSantis people that those guys or girls 466 00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:57,359 Speaker 2: have virtually no chance of actually winning. 467 00:23:57,359 --> 00:23:58,840 Speaker 4: They want to be VP obviously. 468 00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:00,919 Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't worry about the two also rans that 469 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:04,120 Speaker 5: Vivie and Nicki, Hey, they don't give a crap about 470 00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:05,919 Speaker 5: either those None of those people are gonna do anything. 471 00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:08,720 Speaker 5: It's a Trump DeSantis race. As far as people getting 472 00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:11,399 Speaker 5: upset when you say something nice about Trump or DeSantis. 473 00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:13,800 Speaker 5: Don't give a crap if people get upset. People need 474 00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:16,400 Speaker 5: to stop waving pom poms for human beings, for men. 475 00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:19,280 Speaker 5: I don't wave Trump's pom poms. I don't wave Desantus's 476 00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:22,119 Speaker 5: pom poms because they're all just rental cars to me. 477 00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:24,800 Speaker 5: They're all just need to be used until they get 478 00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:26,960 Speaker 5: me where I'm going and then I'm dropping them off 479 00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:29,440 Speaker 5: back at the rental card place. Yeah, they're gonna beat 480 00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:31,199 Speaker 5: the crap out of each other in a primary, and 481 00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:35,000 Speaker 5: they should why because we need better candidates. Trump needs 482 00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:37,360 Speaker 5: to be better than he is. DeSantis needs to be 483 00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:39,760 Speaker 5: better than he is, and the only way to go 484 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:41,640 Speaker 5: take it back to sports. The only way you get 485 00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:44,600 Speaker 5: better is frigging tryouts. Get out there and hammer each 486 00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:46,520 Speaker 5: other into the ground because you're gonna take on a 487 00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:49,679 Speaker 5: Democrat machine that's gonna carve you up like a Thanksgiving 488 00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:52,760 Speaker 5: turkey unless you're ready for it the way they've done before. 489 00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:55,520 Speaker 5: So if people get upset about it, I understand politics 490 00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:58,680 Speaker 5: gets emotional, Well that's too bad. So sad politics is 491 00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:01,760 Speaker 5: a contact sport. Go beat each other up and stop 492 00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:04,119 Speaker 5: falling in love with politicians. None of these people give 493 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:06,320 Speaker 5: a crap about you, So use them all like a 494 00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:08,120 Speaker 5: rental car and then drop them off when you're done 495 00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:08,920 Speaker 5: and forget about them. 496 00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:12,080 Speaker 4: Next month, your book's coming out, Jesse, the Anti Communist Manifesto. 497 00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:14,000 Speaker 4: You'll be joining us here on the show to talk 498 00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:17,640 Speaker 4: more in detail about it. But you know one thing 499 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:20,000 Speaker 4: that I think is interesting is it used to be 500 00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:23,159 Speaker 4: whenever we would use the term socialists, it's it's not 501 00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:26,320 Speaker 4: really a socialist because the means of production right, And 502 00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:28,680 Speaker 4: you get even more of that with calling the left. 503 00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:32,840 Speaker 4: I'm sure communists they say, oh, we're not true pure Marxists. 504 00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:35,399 Speaker 4: Why do we need to think of the other side 505 00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:38,720 Speaker 4: as I call them comedies. You're talking about the anti 506 00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:41,439 Speaker 4: Communist Manifesto, your book, Why do we need to put. 507 00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:43,840 Speaker 5: It in that framework now, because it's exactly what they are. 508 00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:47,000 Speaker 5: Communism changed and communism knew it changed. And by the way, 509 00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:50,000 Speaker 5: the communists wrote all this down. They came to America, 510 00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:53,240 Speaker 5: they tried to get traditional communism here. Our workers were 511 00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:55,960 Speaker 5: too happy for it. But communism is not about the 512 00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:59,320 Speaker 5: workers of the bourgeois. It's just the religion of the malcontent. 513 00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:01,119 Speaker 5: All they need is mould contents, so they had to 514 00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:05,400 Speaker 5: go searching for more malcontents. They shifted to cultural Marxism now, 515 00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:07,800 Speaker 5: so they're not talking about seizing the means of production. 516 00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:11,440 Speaker 5: Everything is some quote civil rights thing or the LGBTQ 517 00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:14,399 Speaker 5: demon mob crab or the feminist hags with their super 518 00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:17,000 Speaker 5: u outbacks. It's always something like that. These are just 519 00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:20,560 Speaker 5: different branches of American communism now. It's all just about 520 00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:24,000 Speaker 5: destruction and burning America down. That's what they are. And 521 00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:25,880 Speaker 5: I laugh when people are on the right when these 522 00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:29,359 Speaker 5: low TGP nerds tell me that they're not actually communists, 523 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:32,919 Speaker 5: when half these people call themselves communists. You have BLM 524 00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:36,359 Speaker 5: on video calling themselves Marxists, and yet the right can't 525 00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:39,320 Speaker 5: wait to bow before them. Oh Jesse, they're just left leaning. 526 00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:42,120 Speaker 5: They're not left leaning. They're dirty communists trying to burn 527 00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:45,359 Speaker 5: America down. Fight like those are the stakes of the game, 528 00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:47,480 Speaker 5: because I promise you those are the stakes of the game. 529 00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:51,520 Speaker 2: So you've got a good theory, and I've seen you 530 00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:53,480 Speaker 2: share it. People can find you on Twitter for sure, 531 00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:55,800 Speaker 2: and obviously listen to you on many of these same stations. 532 00:26:56,600 --> 00:27:00,760 Speaker 2: Your idea and focus is hyper local. People who haven't 533 00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:04,760 Speaker 2: heard what you believe the battleground needs to be. What 534 00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:06,439 Speaker 2: do you mean when you say the focus needs to 535 00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:07,439 Speaker 2: be hyper local? 536 00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:10,480 Speaker 5: Well, we've lost the federal government. The federal government has lost. 537 00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:13,000 Speaker 5: Even if your savior Trump or your savior De Santus 538 00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:15,080 Speaker 5: gets elected in twenty twenty four, I need to remind 539 00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:17,960 Speaker 5: people Trump was president for four years and his entire 540 00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:21,399 Speaker 5: agenda was kneecapped from within his quote own government. Because 541 00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:24,199 Speaker 5: the entire federal government is freaking lost, that doesn't mean 542 00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:27,679 Speaker 5: I was lost. Though. Democrats took this country locally. They 543 00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:30,639 Speaker 5: started with city council elections. They started with school boards, 544 00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:33,120 Speaker 5: educating your kids, teaching them to hate you and hate 545 00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:36,040 Speaker 5: white people and hate themselves and hate everything. That is 546 00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:38,560 Speaker 5: how we will take it back. The soft underbelly of 547 00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:41,400 Speaker 5: communism in this country is the school boards, and people 548 00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:44,160 Speaker 5: are waking up. Go take your freaking city back, Take 549 00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:46,640 Speaker 5: your city council, take your sheriff, take your DA, take 550 00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:49,760 Speaker 5: your school board, and we will eventually spread from local 551 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:53,159 Speaker 5: and lord willing. Take back Washington, d C. There's no 552 00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:56,000 Speaker 5: savior coming at any time from Washington, DC, not in 553 00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:59,320 Speaker 5: twenty four, not in twenty eight. Your city can be saved. 554 00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:01,360 Speaker 5: But that's not sexy, right. We want to talk about 555 00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:04,480 Speaker 5: senator and president and the bright lights and CNN. Go 556 00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:06,520 Speaker 5: run for school board and forget these people. 557 00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:09,040 Speaker 2: I will say this, and I bet this was true 558 00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:10,480 Speaker 2: for you, Jesse, because I know you got a couple 559 00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:14,240 Speaker 2: of suns as well. I never paid attention to who 560 00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:16,200 Speaker 2: was on my local school board. I mean, I've voted 561 00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:19,800 Speaker 2: my whole life. I've never ever gotten invested in who 562 00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:23,000 Speaker 2: I was voting for school board until COVID and they 563 00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:26,159 Speaker 2: made kids wear masks, and I said never again. And 564 00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:29,480 Speaker 2: they have gotten super organized in my home state of Tennessee, 565 00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:32,240 Speaker 2: and the school boards have gotten taken back. 566 00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:34,800 Speaker 4: It's also a farm team in a sense. Yeah, for 567 00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:38,920 Speaker 4: higher office, which is critical you run for school board. 568 00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:40,680 Speaker 4: I have a friend who ran for school board in 569 00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:43,640 Speaker 4: North Carolina, and then she's like, well, maybe I'm gonna 570 00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:46,040 Speaker 4: go and run beyond that. I just interviewed somebody who's 571 00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:49,560 Speaker 4: school board in Sarasota, Bridget Ziegler, on the podcast. By 572 00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:51,000 Speaker 4: the way, you guys should all check out the Clay 573 00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:53,920 Speaker 4: and Buck podcast. We just talked to her and she 574 00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:56,440 Speaker 4: ran for school board. These are people who once they've 575 00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:59,320 Speaker 4: gone through that process. Jesse the left is understood this right. 576 00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:03,560 Speaker 4: Obama started out as a community organizer, and we're all saying, oh, 577 00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:06,480 Speaker 4: community organizer. Yeah, but that was a stepping stone to 578 00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:10,000 Speaker 4: getting in with the other Marxist organizations and machinery to 579 00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:12,760 Speaker 4: elevate him all the way to the presidency. For the Democrats, right, 580 00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:18,000 Speaker 4: we can create a similar mechanism, but based in limited government, constitutionalism, 581 00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:20,880 Speaker 4: and sanity by having people run for school board. And 582 00:29:21,640 --> 00:29:23,520 Speaker 4: I think it does work. I think it is effective. 583 00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:25,200 Speaker 5: Of course it works. And you nailed it when you 584 00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:28,080 Speaker 5: use the farm team analogy. That's how they took the country. 585 00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:30,680 Speaker 5: They didn't take it from Washington, d C. They took 586 00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:33,560 Speaker 5: the education system and from there they've been churning out 587 00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:37,080 Speaker 5: little communists for the longest time, filling up our bureaucracy. 588 00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:39,280 Speaker 5: Now they fill up the corporate boardrooms. Of course, they 589 00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:42,040 Speaker 5: filled up the university system. Now they have a full 590 00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:45,200 Speaker 5: blown training center for communists around the country. And we're 591 00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:47,600 Speaker 5: worried about who's the president. I'll tell you what. I'll 592 00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:49,880 Speaker 5: give them the presidency and every seat in the House 593 00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:52,320 Speaker 5: and Senate, give me every school board, and I'll own 594 00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:54,160 Speaker 5: America in fifty years and they won't. 595 00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:55,360 Speaker 3: Jesse Kelly. 596 00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:59,320 Speaker 2: The book is the anti Communist Manifesto, and I just 597 00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:01,040 Speaker 2: hope one day Ohio State can beat Michigan. 598 00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:02,320 Speaker 3: Oh I'm hoping for you. 599 00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:05,240 Speaker 5: I hate you Buck, I like you Clay were enemies. 600 00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:06,320 Speaker 4: Now I'll take it. 601 00:30:07,520 --> 00:30:10,560 Speaker 2: That is Jessic Kelly A nine to eleven, two thousand, 602 00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:13,160 Speaker 2: nine hundred and seventy seven people lost their lives and 603 00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:16,480 Speaker 2: due to nine eleven related illnesses.

How bad is it gonna get? 628 00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:36,640 Speaker 4: Do you think? 629 00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:38,960 Speaker 2: And we're sitting here at what nine and a half 630 00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:42,720 Speaker 2: hours until Title forty two officially expires? 631 00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:45,400 Speaker 3: What do you expect it to look like? How much 632 00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:46,440 Speaker 3: worse can it get? 633 00:31:46,520 --> 00:31:49,720 Speaker 2: And what can Texas do to fight back against the 634 00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:52,760 Speaker 2: Mauthe sense of the Biden administration, Well. 635 00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:55,200 Speaker 6: One is it's more than mal seasons. I mean, it's 636 00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:57,280 Speaker 6: not like they're just bad at this or like there's 637 00:31:57,440 --> 00:32:00,320 Speaker 6: you know, they're just incompetent. This is a plan they've 638 00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:03,040 Speaker 6: been executing for the last two years. Day one of 639 00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:05,680 Speaker 6: Bide administration, he said, I'm not deporting anybody. He sent 640 00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:08,640 Speaker 6: the signal to the cartels that they could start importing 641 00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:12,400 Speaker 6: as many people as they possibly could, and obviously it's 642 00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:14,880 Speaker 6: a profit motive that he wanted to incentivize it the 643 00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:17,320 Speaker 6: day he got into office. So this is not in 644 00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:20,320 Speaker 6: ma alfzus. This is literally a plan and it's going 645 00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:22,800 Speaker 6: to get worse, and they know it, and they're trying 646 00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:24,520 Speaker 6: to say they're going to do all this stuff to 647 00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:26,560 Speaker 6: correct it, and they're going to have other measures under 648 00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:31,200 Speaker 6: other provisions of law, but it's not true. None of 649 00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:34,000 Speaker 6: their actions so far demonstrate that they care about federal law. 650 00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:38,880 Speaker 6: Enforcing federal law, doing their constitutional law is executing the law, 651 00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:42,480 Speaker 6: not making it. They've never demonstrated, no matter what they've said, 652 00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:45,320 Speaker 6: not one time have they demonstrated they actually cared about 653 00:32:45,320 --> 00:32:49,080 Speaker 6: stopping the illegal immigration or the consequences of that immigration. 654 00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:52,640 Speaker 4: Attorney General Paxson, appreciate you being with us. What can 655 00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:57,120 Speaker 4: you do, if anything, as Attorney General of Texas to 656 00:32:57,200 --> 00:32:59,240 Speaker 4: try to deal with this. I know, I know it's 657 00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:02,560 Speaker 4: a federal problem, right, but it's all over your border 658 00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:05,360 Speaker 4: that this is going to be happening. What are the 659 00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:08,440 Speaker 4: legal remedies that you and the governor may be pursuing 660 00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:11,640 Speaker 4: here to just try to create some order out of 661 00:33:11,680 --> 00:33:12,480 Speaker 4: all the anarchy. 662 00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:16,360 Speaker 6: So we've got several I mean, we've been in litigation 663 00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:19,160 Speaker 6: with them from day one we stopped deportation order where 664 00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:22,680 Speaker 6: they said they weren't going to deport anymore. And we've 665 00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:25,920 Speaker 6: been in litigation ever since the Key provision, and we 666 00:33:25,960 --> 00:33:28,320 Speaker 6: have several lawsuits going right now. One one was on 667 00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:31,400 Speaker 6: Title forty two, which obviously that's going to become mooted. 668 00:33:31,960 --> 00:33:34,640 Speaker 6: And if you look at the things that President Trump 669 00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:37,200 Speaker 6: did to reduce the illegal immigration, it was the stop 670 00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:40,960 Speaker 6: catching release Biden started that up build the wall. Biden 671 00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:43,760 Speaker 6: stopped building the wall. That's the long term solution. We've 672 00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:46,000 Speaker 6: sued them over that Title forty two, which we had 673 00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:47,840 Speaker 6: a lawsuit over that. Obviously that's going away. And the 674 00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:51,000 Speaker 6: final one is remain in Mexico, which is the real 675 00:33:51,080 --> 00:33:54,200 Speaker 6: loophole that they're using, which says the law says that 676 00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:56,440 Speaker 6: when you bring somebody in they come in for as 677 00:33:56,440 --> 00:33:58,800 Speaker 6: on them, they say the magic word, they either have 678 00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:01,120 Speaker 6: to be detained or they have to be sent back 679 00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:03,560 Speaker 6: until they're hearing. Well, that's what Trump did. He followed 680 00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:06,320 Speaker 6: that law. The Biden administrations failed to do that. We 681 00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:10,279 Speaker 6: are in litigation of that. I'm giving lawyers. Mostly what 682 00:34:10,360 --> 00:34:13,600 Speaker 6: I can do is with the corks trying to do. 683 00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:16,839 Speaker 6: Governor Abbott can deploy assets. He's done that, but we 684 00:34:16,920 --> 00:34:19,440 Speaker 6: have limited resources. We've spent billions, but we still have 685 00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:24,359 Speaker 6: limited resources. And how do we stop those Hell no, 686 00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:25,840 Speaker 6: they don't have to run anymore. I don't have to 687 00:34:25,920 --> 00:34:28,360 Speaker 6: hide people. They just drop them off to the poor patrol. 688 00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:31,759 Speaker 6: It's really hard in the middle of transaction, and the 689 00:34:31,760 --> 00:34:34,960 Speaker 6: Biden administration, you know, send them all over the country. 690 00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:38,279 Speaker 6: So it's really difficult when your own federal government is 691 00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:41,680 Speaker 6: opposing federal law themselves and harming their own citizens. 692 00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:45,160 Speaker 2: We're talking to Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton. Appreciate him 693 00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:47,879 Speaker 2: joining us. Obviously, the border is a big story. I'm 694 00:34:47,880 --> 00:34:51,000 Speaker 2: sure you're also following a lot of the revelations that 695 00:34:51,040 --> 00:34:54,000 Speaker 2: are coming out about Joe Biden, his family, the millions 696 00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:58,399 Speaker 2: of dollars they're accepting foreign adversary payments. And also I'm 697 00:34:58,440 --> 00:35:01,520 Speaker 2: sure you've seen, mister Attorney in General, how things are 698 00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:04,960 Speaker 2: being applied against Trump in the state of Georgia, the 699 00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:08,400 Speaker 2: state of New York. By I think it's fair to 700 00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:11,879 Speaker 2: say left wing prosecutors. Is there anything you can do 701 00:35:12,160 --> 00:35:17,239 Speaker 2: as the head of Texas Warriors and official them there 702 00:35:17,719 --> 00:35:22,719 Speaker 2: to look into Joe Biden and his family's behavior as 703 00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:26,080 Speaker 2: a state of Texas potential issue. Have you examined any 704 00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:28,000 Speaker 2: of that, because it feels like, and I'm sure you 705 00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:30,760 Speaker 2: feel this way, there's an awful lot of people taking 706 00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:34,400 Speaker 2: swings at Trump from blue states and blue jurisdictions, and 707 00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:36,719 Speaker 2: it doesn't feel like there's very much of a CounterPunch. 708 00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:41,040 Speaker 6: No, I totally agree. It's incredibly frustrating because what they're 709 00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:44,120 Speaker 6: doing is Trump is I mean, they basically said show 710 00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:45,840 Speaker 6: me the man, I'll show your current. This is like 711 00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:49,440 Speaker 6: Stalin's guy use that's exactly right. So literally they just 712 00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:52,759 Speaker 6: they run on the proposition we will find something, which 713 00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:57,359 Speaker 6: is obviously it's very much like China or Russia. It's 714 00:35:57,440 --> 00:36:02,359 Speaker 6: very much more solitarian than it is freedom. But in Texas, 715 00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:04,680 Speaker 6: here is a bill that would give me the authority 716 00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:06,960 Speaker 6: to do some of the things you're talking about, which 717 00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:11,280 Speaker 6: involve public corruption. Right now, the legislature has not given 718 00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:13,000 Speaker 6: me the authority to do it. I'm asking for it. 719 00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:16,560 Speaker 6: This bill could literally come up today in the Senate 720 00:36:16,640 --> 00:36:19,360 Speaker 6: whether the House will pass. It is a whole other issue, 721 00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:21,319 Speaker 6: but right now we were trying to get it through 722 00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:23,719 Speaker 6: the Senate. If that bill has not passed, everything that 723 00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:26,960 Speaker 6: you talk about, it would be up to local das, 724 00:36:27,600 --> 00:36:30,120 Speaker 6: so a lot of Soros funded das to do something 725 00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:33,680 Speaker 6: about this, and I'm not very optimistic about disuct attorneys 726 00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:35,960 Speaker 6: in Texas doing that, which is why I want the 727 00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:37,120 Speaker 6: authority to do things like this. 728 00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:40,080 Speaker 2: What could we do, because I think that's an important bill. 729 00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:42,479 Speaker 2: What could people listening to us right now? We're number 730 00:36:42,520 --> 00:36:45,080 Speaker 2: one in Houston, We're huge in San Antonio, number one 731 00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:48,759 Speaker 2: in Austin. That would allow you to actually hold Joe 732 00:36:48,760 --> 00:36:49,759 Speaker 2: Biden accountable? 733 00:36:49,880 --> 00:36:51,680 Speaker 3: What do you need to hear? What if people need 734 00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:53,600 Speaker 3: to do in the state of Texas to make this possible. 735 00:36:53,920 --> 00:36:57,680 Speaker 6: Only hope we have is a Senate Bill eleven ninety 736 00:36:57,680 --> 00:37:00,680 Speaker 6: five by Senator Brian Hughes. It's a great bill. He 737 00:37:00,719 --> 00:37:04,160 Speaker 6: would give us access to public corruption so and also 738 00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:07,759 Speaker 6: human trafficking, abortion, and election fraud. Because the Court of 739 00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:10,319 Speaker 6: Criminal Pills in Texas tried to take away election fraud 740 00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:13,360 Speaker 6: from me, which means we can't prosecute election fraud, and 741 00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:15,759 Speaker 6: obviously that's very there's a very good reason. They didn't 742 00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:18,720 Speaker 6: want me to prosecute election fraud. So that bill literally 743 00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:22,160 Speaker 6: should come up today if you can get if you 744 00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:25,120 Speaker 6: can get the Republicans to support it, the Republican senators, 745 00:37:25,160 --> 00:37:27,279 Speaker 6: all of them, the bill will pass the Senate and 746 00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:29,239 Speaker 6: then it'll be up to the House, and then we'll 747 00:37:29,239 --> 00:37:31,720 Speaker 6: need help in the House because that's a more usually 748 00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:34,600 Speaker 6: more difficult place to pass things like this. So if 749 00:37:34,600 --> 00:37:37,440 Speaker 6: they can let their senators know right now, I want 750 00:37:37,520 --> 00:37:40,680 Speaker 6: Senator Hughes bill to pass that allows the attorney general 751 00:37:40,719 --> 00:37:45,120 Speaker 6: to prosecute voter fraud, human trafficking, abortion, and public corruption. 752 00:37:45,160 --> 00:37:47,600 Speaker 6: And by the way, the district attorneys are fighting this 753 00:37:47,880 --> 00:37:51,200 Speaker 6: tooth and nail because they don't want anybody else prosecuting 754 00:37:51,239 --> 00:37:52,240 Speaker 6: anything in the state. 755 00:37:52,160 --> 00:37:55,000 Speaker 4: Attorney General Paxson, how can they let what's the best way? 756 00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:58,400 Speaker 4: Call in email? In you said let them know to pass. 757 00:37:58,160 --> 00:38:00,799 Speaker 6: This, I would say, look up your senator's phone number 758 00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:02,640 Speaker 6: and call them because we need it today. It needs 759 00:38:02,640 --> 00:38:04,680 Speaker 6: to be fast. But call and email to you both 760 00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:06,759 Speaker 6: and you can get that off the website. You can 761 00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:11,000 Speaker 6: go on to Texas Senate. This is first and there's 762 00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:13,680 Speaker 6: there's a website that gives you a phone number and in. 763 00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:17,719 Speaker 4: An email Tony General Paxson, appreciate you being with us 764 00:38:17,800 --> 00:38:19,080 Speaker 4: or thanks so much for making the time. 765 00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:20,320 Speaker 6: I appreciate it. 766 00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:23,200 Speaker 4: Have a great day, man Clay. It is going to 767 00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:27,200 Speaker 4: get worse and worse. It's amazing that we're at this stage. 768 00:38:27,239 --> 00:38:29,279 Speaker 4: But I think the first point that he made is 769 00:38:29,320 --> 00:38:33,160 Speaker 4: the most critical one, which is this is not a surprise. 770 00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:38,440 Speaker 4: This is the end result of years of poor decision making, 771 00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:41,160 Speaker 4: although from the Democrat perspective it's just a power play 772 00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:43,719 Speaker 4: when it comes to our border.

I know you got Jack 838 00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:14,759 Speaker 2: Kara on which the last time we saw him was 839 00:42:14,760 --> 00:42:17,600 Speaker 2: out in Park City, which is where he lives, and. 840 00:42:17,640 --> 00:42:19,520 Speaker 7: You know, he was kind of a big deal, kind 841 00:42:19,520 --> 00:42:21,680 Speaker 7: of a big deal, kind of strutting down Main Street 842 00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:26,000 Speaker 7: as his hit show on Amazon, The Terminal List, had 843 00:42:26,040 --> 00:42:27,880 Speaker 7: already gotten in its numbers and was crushing it. 844 00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:30,640 Speaker 4: And I believe they've already renewed. That's another series another 845 00:42:30,719 --> 00:42:33,839 Speaker 4: season of the Terminal List with Chris Pratt. I got 846 00:42:33,840 --> 00:42:35,000 Speaker 4: to say, for a lot of guys out there, if 847 00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:39,120 Speaker 4: you're writing if you're writing a a a thriller, you know, 848 00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:44,200 Speaker 4: military action novel, having Chris Pratt as as the lead 849 00:42:44,320 --> 00:42:48,799 Speaker 4: in your Amazon series is certainly a dream come true. 850 00:42:48,800 --> 00:42:50,440 Speaker 4: I think that would be if like, if I had 851 00:42:50,440 --> 00:42:51,879 Speaker 4: to pick, I'd be like, I think I'd probably want 852 00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:55,320 Speaker 4: Chris Pratt. Wellthough, John Krasinski, I gotta say he's probably 853 00:42:55,360 --> 00:42:57,560 Speaker 4: a lib. They're all well, Chris Pratt's not a huge lib. 854 00:42:57,640 --> 00:43:00,600 Speaker 4: Chris Pratt talks about God and Jesus and Christianity in Faith. 855 00:43:01,480 --> 00:43:03,399 Speaker 4: I don't know if what Krazinski's like. He was good 856 00:43:03,400 --> 00:43:07,160 Speaker 4: in Thirteen Hours though, which was also a very good watch. 857 00:43:07,400 --> 00:43:09,680 Speaker 4: But we will have Jack Carr on tomorrow. We'll talk 858 00:43:09,719 --> 00:43:12,440 Speaker 4: to him about a little bit about Hollywood, and it's 859 00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:15,080 Speaker 4: funny Hollywood is it's sort of like Wall Street. Hollywood's 860 00:43:15,080 --> 00:43:17,840 Speaker 4: not even really the thing that it was anymore. We 861 00:43:17,880 --> 00:43:21,880 Speaker 4: still think of it as the entertainment industry. But Amazon, Netflix, 862 00:43:22,400 --> 00:43:26,359 Speaker 4: Disney plus those are now where the shows, the really 863 00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:28,680 Speaker 4: big budget show is being made. But as we're seeing 864 00:43:28,680 --> 00:43:32,000 Speaker 4: the streaming business is not a good business, not an 865 00:43:32,040 --> 00:43:36,920 Speaker 4: easy business for even the biggest multinational conglomerates to be in. 866 00:43:37,840 --> 00:43:39,359 Speaker 4: I don't think it. I'm just gonna say, I don't 867 00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:42,120 Speaker 4: think it helped Disney. Plus the whole Mandalorian thing. Remember 868 00:43:42,160 --> 00:43:46,560 Speaker 4: where they got that's, you know. And also what's is 869 00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:48,680 Speaker 4: the guy the lead guy in that is very woke, 870 00:43:49,280 --> 00:43:53,040 Speaker 4: which is annoying always. I can't remember his name, Hydro Pascal. 871 00:43:53,920 --> 00:43:58,000 Speaker 2: They have Buck And this is a big media ecosystem story. 872 00:43:58,400 --> 00:44:02,120 Speaker 2: The cable in satellite bundle was the greatest media business 873 00:44:02,160 --> 00:44:04,760 Speaker 2: that had ever been created in the history of media. 874 00:44:05,239 --> 00:44:07,719 Speaker 2: If you were on the cable and satellite bundle, your 875 00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:10,759 Speaker 2: channel made money handover fist in every year you got 876 00:44:10,800 --> 00:44:12,960 Speaker 2: a raise and a lot of you out there listening 877 00:44:12,960 --> 00:44:16,960 Speaker 2: to what I'm talking about. Around two thy twelve, we 878 00:44:17,120 --> 00:44:20,680 Speaker 2: peaked at over one hundred million cable in satellite households. 879 00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:25,160 Speaker 2: Now it's down to seventy five. It's declining rapidly from there, 880 00:44:25,680 --> 00:44:29,359 Speaker 2: and only Netflix has made any money from streaming so far. 881 00:44:29,400 --> 00:44:32,520 Speaker 2: Disney has lost eleven billion dollars. And if you're a 882 00:44:32,520 --> 00:44:36,440 Speaker 2: Disney shareholder, I'm sorry. Stock is down nine dollars today. 883 00:44:36,840 --> 00:44:39,880 Speaker 2: It basically hasn't moved in a decade. That is, if 884 00:44:39,920 --> 00:44:41,880 Speaker 2: you bought Disney stock a decade ago, it's kind of 885 00:44:41,880 --> 00:44:46,000 Speaker 2: set there. And this streaming business is replacing the cable 886 00:44:46,040 --> 00:44:49,239 Speaker 2: in satellite business, and so far almost no one in 887 00:44:49,280 --> 00:44:52,680 Speaker 2: the traditional media business is making any money. They're losing money. 888 00:44:52,719 --> 00:44:53,480 Speaker 2: Handover fist. 889 00:44:53,560 --> 00:44:57,000 Speaker 4: Speaking of Disney, do you remember Soviet Mary Poppins, Yes, 890 00:44:57,400 --> 00:45:05,600 Speaker 4: Nina Jankowitz, the buy administrations would be DHS Disinformation Governance 891 00:45:05,760 --> 00:45:09,800 Speaker 4: Board member or the disinformations are I call her Soviet 892 00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:11,759 Speaker 4: Mary Poppins because she liked to sing. We saw the 893 00:45:11,840 --> 00:45:17,040 Speaker 4: videos and the whole notion of disinformation as practiced by 894 00:45:17,400 --> 00:45:21,040 Speaker 4: the Biden regime. Social media in collusion with the Democrat 895 00:45:21,080 --> 00:45:28,040 Speaker 4: Party is just about censorship, deplatforming, and silencing conservative or 896 00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:32,879 Speaker 4: regime challenging voices. But Clay Soviet Mary Poppins, I say 897 00:45:32,920 --> 00:45:39,920 Speaker 4: it again, is suing is suing Fox News? Yeah, so 898 00:45:40,120 --> 00:45:44,759 Speaker 4: she's now decided to lawyer up and they're saying. Over 899 00:45:44,800 --> 00:45:47,359 Speaker 4: the course of eight months, Fox talked about Jankowitz more 900 00:45:47,360 --> 00:45:51,200 Speaker 4: than three hundred times across its broadcast and online publications. 901 00:45:51,239 --> 00:45:56,280 Speaker 4: Fox employee hosts and commentators derided and lied about Jagowitz 902 00:45:56,360 --> 00:45:59,400 Speaker 4: on repeat and continue to do so even today. I 903 00:45:59,400 --> 00:46:01,560 Speaker 4: don't know, man, do you call her Soviet Mary Poppins 904 00:46:01,560 --> 00:46:03,480 Speaker 4: on Fox? I might have, I don't remember now, but 905 00:46:03,520 --> 00:46:04,480 Speaker 4: I don't work for Fox. 906 00:46:04,520 --> 00:46:07,640 Speaker 2: So yeah, well, you're in more danger though, because at 907 00:46:07,719 --> 00:46:11,160 Speaker 2: least I'm indemnified in theory, you might get sued individually 908 00:46:11,200 --> 00:46:14,600 Speaker 2: for calling her Soviet Mary Poppins. In all honesty, that's 909 00:46:14,680 --> 00:46:16,520 Speaker 2: I'm putting my lawyer hat on. 910 00:46:16,640 --> 00:46:19,200 Speaker 3: Now, that's certainly fair game, right. 911 00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:26,640 Speaker 2: Ridicule, satire of political opposition or political figures in general, 912 00:46:26,760 --> 00:46:29,720 Speaker 2: is actually the foundation of our First Amendment. 913 00:46:29,760 --> 00:46:31,800 Speaker 3: I don't think she's going to have any success there. 914 00:46:31,880 --> 00:46:37,240 Speaker 2: But what this is representative of is when Fox News, 915 00:46:37,320 --> 00:46:41,719 Speaker 2: the larger Fox corporate entity, settled with Dominion, there are 916 00:46:41,760 --> 00:46:44,040 Speaker 2: going to be a lot of lawyers out there beating 917 00:46:44,080 --> 00:46:46,959 Speaker 2: the bushes trying to find people that they think would 918 00:46:47,000 --> 00:46:50,240 Speaker 2: have a claim that could make it past a summary 919 00:46:50,320 --> 00:46:54,040 Speaker 2: judgment motion to try and get some form of settlement 920 00:46:54,080 --> 00:46:57,920 Speaker 2: out of Fox. Now, I suspect that Fox will hold 921 00:46:58,360 --> 00:47:03,239 Speaker 2: a pretty strong line against individuals because just take it 922 00:47:03,280 --> 00:47:07,360 Speaker 2: outside of Soviet Mary Poppins. Here, if you can't talk 923 00:47:07,400 --> 00:47:11,040 Speaker 2: about political figures in news coverage. 924 00:47:11,120 --> 00:47:12,640 Speaker 4: The First Amendment is done, it's over. 925 00:47:13,440 --> 00:47:16,239 Speaker 2: And if you can't ridicule them and their ideas and 926 00:47:16,320 --> 00:47:19,839 Speaker 2: their perspectives by the way, on both sides, then how 927 00:47:19,840 --> 00:47:22,759 Speaker 2: do you have a robust marketplace of ideas in any way? 928 00:47:22,840 --> 00:47:24,839 Speaker 4: Well, this is why you have to have a fair 929 00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:27,760 Speaker 4: use doctrine. For example, this is why we can play 930 00:47:28,280 --> 00:47:33,000 Speaker 4: clips of other shows within reason on this show and 931 00:47:33,239 --> 00:47:35,000 Speaker 4: make fun of them, like we can play clips of 932 00:47:35,080 --> 00:47:37,720 Speaker 4: the view to say, listen to the stupid thing they said, 933 00:47:37,840 --> 00:47:41,319 Speaker 4: because otherwise, how could you have a real conversation and 934 00:47:41,400 --> 00:47:45,160 Speaker 4: bring evidence forward about what's being said in politics today. 935 00:47:46,400 --> 00:47:50,239 Speaker 4: But there are people that are trying to abuse the 936 00:47:50,320 --> 00:47:52,279 Speaker 4: law right now in a number of fronts. One of them, 937 00:47:52,280 --> 00:47:55,319 Speaker 4: obviously the big one is going after Donald Trump. But 938 00:47:55,480 --> 00:47:58,279 Speaker 4: even on this, I think you're going to see a 939 00:47:58,320 --> 00:48:00,440 Speaker 4: lot more of this. You're going to see lawsuits at 940 00:48:00,480 --> 00:48:05,440 Speaker 4: some level. What we've seen now is the criminalization of 941 00:48:05,480 --> 00:48:08,960 Speaker 4: the wrong politics and individual form with Donald Trump bringing 942 00:48:08,960 --> 00:48:12,600 Speaker 4: all these different I believe there are multiple criminal indictments 943 00:48:12,600 --> 00:48:14,319 Speaker 4: coming against Trump. I've said it here. I think you 944 00:48:14,360 --> 00:48:16,640 Speaker 4: and I agree on this. That's right, there's multiple indictments coming. 945 00:48:17,200 --> 00:48:22,040 Speaker 4: But also the ability now for people to sue news 946 00:48:22,160 --> 00:48:27,520 Speaker 4: organizations and individuals for matters of political difference based upon 947 00:48:27,600 --> 00:48:31,800 Speaker 4: whether it is disinformation. Yeah, which is a very dangerous. 948 00:48:31,800 --> 00:48:34,399 Speaker 4: This is why I did not I thought the whole 949 00:48:34,440 --> 00:48:36,840 Speaker 4: thing with Fox. Yeah, it was bad from the get go, 950 00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:40,680 Speaker 4: the lawsuits and what are represented. But now going forward, 951 00:48:41,000 --> 00:48:44,760 Speaker 4: there will be law there to silence in this country. 952 00:48:45,280 --> 00:48:48,200 Speaker 4: And this is going to be a real challenge for 953 00:48:48,239 --> 00:48:51,040 Speaker 4: those who want to try to talk about issues that 954 00:48:51,840 --> 00:48:55,640 Speaker 4: really are difficult. For the regime that issues that they 955 00:48:55,760 --> 00:48:57,520 Speaker 4: don't want to defend, they're just going to try to 956 00:48:57,560 --> 00:48:58,560 Speaker 4: sue you into submission. 957 00:48:58,840 --> 00:49:01,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, And it's the whole concept of words as violence. 958 00:49:02,040 --> 00:49:05,720 Speaker 2: I mean, Joy Behar is, in my opinion, the dumbest 959 00:49:05,719 --> 00:49:09,000 Speaker 2: person on daily television in America. That's my opinion. 960 00:49:09,480 --> 00:49:11,200 Speaker 3: Joy Behart could try to sue much. 961 00:49:11,239 --> 00:49:13,840 Speaker 4: She's got a soak clay into poverty. 962 00:49:14,200 --> 00:49:17,840 Speaker 2: She could try to sue me, But that's part of 963 00:49:18,120 --> 00:49:20,799 Speaker 2: the universe of acceptable discourse. By the way, she could 964 00:49:20,840 --> 00:49:23,000 Speaker 2: go on the view and say, I'm the dumbest person 965 00:49:23,320 --> 00:49:25,759 Speaker 2: that she's ever heard on radio in history, and that's 966 00:49:25,800 --> 00:49:26,160 Speaker 2: her right. 967 00:49:26,239 --> 00:49:27,920 Speaker 4: What if she sued you and she just wanted a 968 00:49:27,920 --> 00:49:29,520 Speaker 4: really hardfelt apology play. 969 00:49:30,239 --> 00:49:31,040 Speaker 3: She would not get it. 970 00:49:31,520 --> 00:49:33,600 Speaker 2: I didn't think, so I'll have I'll challenge her to 971 00:49:33,640 --> 00:49:35,160 Speaker 2: a spelling bee. If she could beat me in a 972 00:49:35,200 --> 00:49:37,680 Speaker 2: spelling bee, then I would apologize to joy Behart for 973 00:49:37,760 --> 00:49:41,640 Speaker 2: calling her the dumbest person in America because on daily media, 974 00:49:41,719 --> 00:49:43,279 Speaker 2: because I think if she could do that, that would 975 00:49:43,280 --> 00:49:44,920 Speaker 2: be some evidence that she's not. But I think I 976 00:49:44,920 --> 00:49:46,560 Speaker 2: would smoke her in a spelling bee. 977 00:49:46,719 --> 00:49:47,719 Speaker 4: I would put money on her
