Speaker 1: wherever you get your podcasts. A violent weekend in America
Speaker 1: as mass shootings hit multiple cities across the country, including Buffalo,
Speaker 1: New York, where a gunman killed ten people in a
Speaker 1: local supermarket. As expected, the left waisted no time in
Speaker 1: pointing the finger at Fox News and conservative media. We'll
Speaker 1: take a look at the deadly shooting and the political
Speaker 1: fallout in tonight's Hold the Line. Welcome to hold the
Speaker 1: Line on Buck Sexton. Horrific violence over the weekend. In
Speaker 1: a number of deadly shootings, the one that is getting
Speaker 1: the most attention, as it should, is a mass murder
Speaker 1: of African Americans in Buffalo, New York in a supermarket
Speaker 1: by a white supremacist, evil lunatic. There was also a
Speaker 1: shooting that occurred in in California, and that was in
Speaker 1: a church. It was actually a Chinese national targeting Taiwanese
Speaker 1: members of the congregation. That shooting resulted in only one
Speaker 1: fatality because the congregation was able to step in and
Speaker 1: tie up actually the shooter. There was also outside the
Speaker 1: Milwaukee Bucks game over the weekend in Milwaukee, a shooting
Speaker 1: that injured twenty Many people were hit with either gunfire
Speaker 1: or were trampled by fleeing crowd, so it was clearly
Speaker 1: a weekend with a lot of major violence. There's actually
Speaker 1: a curfew in effect in the most well known park
Speaker 1: in Chicago where I was over the weekend because of
Speaker 1: a shooting, a fatal shooting that occurred there. We'll get
Speaker 1: into all of some of those. We'll get into some
Speaker 1: of those details in just a moment, of course. Apologies,
Speaker 1: as you can hear, I have a cold, so I'm
Speaker 1: struggling through that one right now. But let's just understand
Speaker 1: that these horrific shootings are something that should immediately beach
Speaker 1: treated as evil acts that have to be seriously discussed
Speaker 1: in terms of the prevention measures that could actually work,
Speaker 1: and what policies and what ideas could stop further shootings
Speaker 1: like this from happening. It should not be as unfortunately,
Speaker 1: it turns into so quickly a time for the left
Speaker 1: to just start slandering all of their political opponents and
Speaker 1: acting like somehow. Specifically in the case of Buffalo, that
Speaker 1: mass murder and yes, a terrorist act by a white supremacist, lunatic.
Speaker 1: That act was in any way the result of rhetoric
Speaker 1: from people in the Republican mainstream, in the Republican Party,
Speaker 1: conservative commentators. So we should have a serious conversation about
Speaker 1: how to stop these kinds of things from happening. That
Speaker 1: would involve data and involve reason and open debate and discussion. Instead,
Speaker 1: what we have are people pointing fingers at those who
Speaker 1: have nothing to do with such a heinous act. There's
Speaker 1: countless examples of this over the weekend. Here is Washington
Speaker 1: Post editor Eugene Robinson, for example, who is blaming box
Speaker 1: News and the GOP for the terrorist attack in Buffalo
Speaker 1: Launch Beach has consequences. And what they are doing, and
Speaker 1: they're doing it deliberately and knowingly, is they're going after votes,
Speaker 1: campaign contributions, television ratings with rhetoric that they know is false,
Speaker 1: they know as inflammatory, they know arouses in the passions,
Speaker 1: and they know is potentially deadly when it fills the
Speaker 1: ears and minds of susceptible, vulnerable people like the shooter
Speaker 1: in Buffalo, who see who hear it as a call
Speaker 1: to action, They don't hear it as as rhetoric. They
Speaker 1: don't hear it as entertainment, you know, infotainment, which is
Speaker 1: one way you could describe a lot of the show's
Speaker 1: on Fox, at least in the evening as infotainment. But
Speaker 1: that's not the way people are hearing the stuff they
Speaker 1: hear it is a call to action, and action this
Speaker 1: case means killing people. His argument is awful, it's absurd,
Speaker 1: it's stupid, it's intellectually dishonest. It's unethical for him to
Speaker 1: suggest that people doing including the many journalists who are
Speaker 1: not even commentators, who are just doing journalism, and Fox
Speaker 1: News or somehow in any way connected, who are responsible
Speaker 1: for this. But this is just what the emotionally driven
Speaker 1: Democrats do. There's a tragedy, they politicize it right away.
Speaker 1: Notice how the right conservatives do not all immediately after
Speaker 1: an incident that would fall into a narrative. The left
Speaker 1: is very uncomfortable with, say, the mass murder of people
Speaker 1: using a vehicle instead of a gun at a Christmas
Speaker 1: parade and walker show driven by an anti white, hateful lunatic,
Speaker 1: or the mass the attempted mass murder, and the mass
Speaker 1: shooting of individuals in the New York City subway system
Speaker 1: recently that perpetrator was an African American male, and so
Speaker 1: the narrative that the media generally wants to focus on
Speaker 1: of white supremacist terrorism did not apply. We don't, though,
Speaker 1: say that those incidents, those acts are in any way
Speaker 1: the responsibility of the mainstream Democrats, just like the Bernie
Speaker 1: Sanders voter who was a big Rachel Mattaw TV watcher
Speaker 1: who tried to murder members of Congress, about a dozen
Speaker 1: of them on a baseball field at Alexandria, Virginia in
Speaker 1: twenty eighteen. That was not the fault of Bernie Sanders.
Speaker 1: I've never said it was the fault of Bernie Sanders.
Speaker 1: And yet here we are. And then there are people
Speaker 1: who are just honestly jealous of the success that some
Speaker 1: of their media counterparts and competition have had that far
Speaker 1: outstrips their own, and so they take this as an
Speaker 1: opportunity for cheap shots. And none other than the intellectually
Speaker 1: absurd Joe Scarborough used this as a chance to say,
Speaker 1: it's about those news networks and he just mean one
Speaker 1: of course, that are breeding greater bear wash, like that
Speaker 1: infected appendage still attached to the GOP, the Trump wing
Speaker 1: fueled by white grievance and wild conspiracies, those conspiracies pushed
Speaker 1: by a former president, House Republican leaders, social media monopolies,
Speaker 1: and a powerful cable news network working every day to
Speaker 1: turn white against black, white against Hispanic, white against Muslim,
Speaker 1: and white against Jew. It is the most grotesque of
Speaker 1: marketing schemes. That is killing, yes literally killing those very
Speaker 1: Americans whose existence is now being used as leverage. The
Speaker 1: pathetic and dishonest moralizing from Joe Scarborough there is not surprising.
Speaker 1: He's somebody who has sold out everything that he ever
Speaker 1: claimed to believe in for a paycheck to have a
Speaker 1: very meager audience over at MSNBC. So this is not
Speaker 1: in any way a surprise to see him take such
Speaker 1: a disgraceful position on this matter, to try to blame
Speaker 1: everybody within the GOP. But let's actually talk about the
Speaker 1: other measures, the other things that the Democrats say should
Speaker 1: be done. Now, there is the immediate call for social
Speaker 1: media control to be stronger, because the shooter here, who
Speaker 1: is a mass murdering lunatic, and to spend the rest
Speaker 1: of his life in jail or have his life ended
Speaker 1: by this state with a lethal injection in his arm
Speaker 1: that's also a possibility here, and would be fully justified
Speaker 1: that he live streamed the shooting on Twitch. Will turned
Speaker 1: out that Twitch took off that livestream within two minute.
Speaker 1: That's pretty fast for a social media live stream company
Speaker 1: to be able to say, look, we got it off
Speaker 1: within two minutes and then pulled it off everywhere where
Speaker 1: it existed. But that wasn't good enough for some politicians.
Speaker 1: And of course though the usual calls for gun control.
Speaker 1: But our Democrat that's even serious about calling for gun
Speaker 1: control in this midterm election year, here's Pelosi. Watch you
Speaker 1: and other Democrats call for new gun restrictions. Year after year,
Speaker 1: Democrats have united unified control of the House and the Senate.
Speaker 1: In the White House, I know that in the House
Speaker 1: you've repeatedly passed gun measures and that your majorities in
Speaker 1: Congress are slim, But should you when the president and
Speaker 1: others other Democratic leaders make this a bigger priority. It
Speaker 1: is a huge priority for us, and it has been
Speaker 1: a huge priority for Joe Biden for President Biden. Sorry,
Speaker 1: she says, it is a huge priority for them. So apparently,
Speaker 1: going to mid germ election year, they think that they
Speaker 1: will do something on guns. But would that have actually
Speaker 1: had any real effect whatsoever on the midterm election, I
Speaker 1: mean this incident. No. The answer is there's nothing that
Speaker 1: they will come up with that would have actually prevented this,
Speaker 1: But they don't care. They don't want to look at
Speaker 1: what actually could be more effective early warning intervention by
Speaker 1: law enforcement. Law enforcement to lock people up for a
Speaker 1: longer period of time who are actual violent threats to
Speaker 1: the community wherever they are, all across the country. Concealed
Speaker 1: carry permits for individuals, all of that for law biding individuals,
Speaker 1: all of that could actually have an effect here and
Speaker 1: could stop a mass shooting situation. But they just want
Speaker 1: to point at Republicans and say you're evil, we're the
Speaker 1: good people here, the Democrat And that's not going to
Speaker 1: help anything. It's not true, and it just adds to
Speaker 1: this bitter part is in divide in the country right now.
Speaker 1: And then, as I said, I was in Chicago for
Speaker 1: the weekend, and there was a shooting right where I
Speaker 1: was standing. A couple of hours later at the Being,
Speaker 1: which is a famous here you go, thirty three shot
Speaker 1: five fatally. One of those fatal shootings happened right where
Speaker 1: I was standing at the Being, A tourist attraction in
Speaker 1: Chicago over the weekend, and now there's a curfew and
Speaker 1: effect for that part. So there's violence that's happening all
Speaker 1: over the country that needs a serious policy, serious program
Speaker 1: to address. We'll have more on this with author alums

Speaker 1: Just hours after the shooting, New York Governor Kathy Hookel
Speaker 1: demanded at social media companies shut down discussion of so
Speaker 1: called replacement theory once. I want to know what people
Speaker 1: knew and when they knew it, and calling upon our
Speaker 1: law enforcement as well as our social media platforms. The
Speaker 1: CEOs of those companies need to be held accountable and
Speaker 1: assure all of us that they're taking every step humanly
Speaker 1: possible to be ablely monitoring this information. The white supremacy
Speaker 1: concept of replacement theory where they're concerned and now taking
Speaker 1: to the streets in places like Charlottesville and others motivated
Speaker 1: by this idea that immigrants and Jews and blacks are
Speaker 1: going to replace whites, and that is spreading through social
Speaker 1: media platforms that need to be monitored and shut down.
Speaker 1: The second these words are espoused out there in these platforms,
Speaker 1: it has to stop. You know what I mean? Now,
Speaker 1: it was author and columnist David Marcus. David, appreciate your
Speaker 1: being with us. Thanks Buck, Kathy Hokel, I really mean this.
Speaker 1: I don't think she's a particularly bright person. I don't
Speaker 1: think she is very capable. Does she really think that
Speaker 1: if only social media companies tried to crack down on
Speaker 1: speech even more, you wouldn't have one loan gutman lunatic
Speaker 1: like this that once in a while, unfortunately tragically would
Speaker 1: engage in this kind of a mass shooting. I mean,
Speaker 1: I just it seems to me that their solutions to
Speaker 1: prevent these kinds of incidents are just on serious. Now, look,
Speaker 1: she just sees a political opportunity here, and you know
Speaker 1: that's why when when you have these horrible tragedies, in
Speaker 1: this case, a blatantly racist, you know, set of murders here, Unfortunately,
Speaker 1: everybody in the news media knows that as soon as
Speaker 1: it happens. The first question is you know, what was
Speaker 1: the political ideology the American people start saying, you know,
Speaker 1: was was this person on my team? Or was they
Speaker 1: on the other team? And the answer, of course is
Speaker 1: they're not on anybody's team. Right, This evil lunatic in
Speaker 1: Buffalo isn't on anybody's team. The guy who shot up
Speaker 1: the subway in Brooklyn isn't on anybody's team. But you know,
Speaker 1: we have four reporters at the White House Press conference
Speaker 1: today specifically try to get the White House to blame
Speaker 1: Republican politicians or different media figures. You know, it's divisive,
Speaker 1: it's predictable, and it's really standing in the way of
Speaker 1: some important discourse that might help us stop these kinds
Speaker 1: of events. Although as you say, they are rare, that
Speaker 1: they're a problem and we ought to be serious about them. Yes,
Speaker 1: And the issue of violence across the country, which was
Speaker 1: also unfortunately on display this past weekend. It's fascinating the
Speaker 1: media spend so much less time on what the reality
Speaker 1: is of over ninety five percent of the murders that
Speaker 1: are occurring in the country, which is is young men
Speaker 1: who are shooting other young men, disproportionally involving and targeting
Speaker 1: the minority community in places like Chicago, places like New York.
Speaker 1: They don't want to discuss ending or stopping that in
Speaker 1: a serious way. They'll say that it's police racism, They'll
Speaker 1: say that it's other things. And then in a situation
Speaker 1: like this, we're going to hear more about gun control,
Speaker 1: and yet the gun control measures that they're this. I
Speaker 1: feel like we do this all the time, David right,
Speaker 1: And I wonder at what point the public tires of
Speaker 1: Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer saying, well, if if only,
Speaker 1: if we had only banned assault rifles, this wouldn't have happened.
Speaker 1: There was a mass shooter in California the same weekend
Speaker 1: who used two pistols. So then are we going to
Speaker 1: gonnavan pistols or what is the It just seems like
Speaker 1: we keep coming back to the same discussion, and really
Speaker 1: the Democrats would allowed his voices on. I just want
Speaker 1: to say Republicans are evil. This is their fault somehow. Yeah, look,
Speaker 1: I think that's right, and I do think I do
Speaker 1: think that to some extent, conservatives, some conservatives have a
Speaker 1: tendency to say something like this overt white supremacy just
Speaker 1: doesn't exist in our society anymore. And that's not true.
Speaker 1: It certainly does in prisons, it certainly does in these
Speaker 1: sort of dark corners of the internet. And that's what
Speaker 1: we need to be focused on if we want to
Speaker 1: stop It's not not monitoring Americans with disinformation boards, but
Speaker 1: the kind of police and law enforcement intelligence that that's
Speaker 1: sort of normal and natural. Uh No, that these calls to,
Speaker 1: you know, gun control was not going to stop this,
Speaker 1: It just was. It's just not a serious solution to
Speaker 1: the problem. So why why don't we have a serious
Speaker 1: conversation about it? And the very specific I mean, this
Speaker 1: does not happen in the same way when there is
Speaker 1: an narrative that or rather when the shooting falls into
Speaker 1: a different narrative, right, I mean in the aftermath of Waukesha,
Speaker 1: for example, where a black man specifically drove his car
Speaker 1: intentionally and murdered many people in the streets, you know,
Speaker 1: crush the murdered people's horrific. You didn't have the biggest,
Speaker 1: loudest voices in the Republican Party all saying this is
Speaker 1: Nancy Pelosi's fault, or this is Rachel Maddow's fault, or
Speaker 1: Anderson Cooper's fault. We didn't do that. In the aftermath
Speaker 1: of this, you have, it's all over the internet, it's
Speaker 1: all over cable news chas channels. They're specifically not just
Speaker 1: calling out Fox News Channel, they're calling out certain posts
Speaker 1: on Fox as though they're personally responsible for them. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's absolutely ridiculous. And you're very right
Speaker 1: about the discrepancy between how this operates on the right
Speaker 1: and how this operates on the left. And I'll say,
Speaker 1: you know, since I since I threw a little shade
Speaker 1: of conservatives who maybe paint too rosie a picture of
Speaker 1: race relations in the United States, the Democrats, this line
Speaker 1: that the white nationalist violence or white supremacy is the
Speaker 1: greatest threat to the homeland is absurd, right, everybody knows
Speaker 1: that it's absurd, And so I really think that a
Speaker 1: lot of this rhetoric is in service of that frankly
Speaker 1: bizarre notion that just has a lot of purchase on
Speaker 1: the left. Right now, I want to I mean, there's
Speaker 1: a part of that it doesn't even want to ask
Speaker 1: you about this, David, but I'm curious about your take
Speaker 1: because giving this person attention almost feels like it's not
Speaker 1: only a distraction but maybe this is just what she wants.
Speaker 1: Liz Cheney, who is still technically a Republican, geted out
Speaker 1: the House. GOP leadership has enabled white nationalism, white supremacy,
Speaker 1: and anti semitism. History has taught us what begins with
Speaker 1: words ends and far worse. GOP leaders must renounce and
Speaker 1: reject these viewers and those who hold them. I mean,
Speaker 1: she's is she just is she comically idiotic or comically awful,
Speaker 1: or or because it's just so stupid. I mean, what
Speaker 1: she's saying is so absurd that the GOP is where
Speaker 1: all the anti semitism is. That would be news to
Speaker 1: most of the Jews that come out and speak about
Speaker 1: where the anti semitism is in Congress because it's Democrats. Yeah, look,
Speaker 1: it's it's it's grandstanding, it's it's self aggrandizing. I mean,
Speaker 1: I saw that tweet this morning, and because you know,
Speaker 1: for my job, I have to be one of the
Speaker 1: twelve people who watch his CNN. You know, forty five
Speaker 1: minutes later there's the tweet on CNN. That's the purpose
Speaker 1: of it. It's all to sort of gin up this
Speaker 1: ridiculous January sixth committee. It's foolishness and I think a lot.
Speaker 1: In fact, I think the vast majority of Republican voters
Speaker 1: really hope that the voters of Wyoming do their job
Speaker 1: soon and we don't have to deal with Liz Cheney anymore. David,
Speaker 1: appreciate you being with us. Good to see you. Thanks Buck.
Speaker 1: Amazon founder Jeff Bezos blasting President Biden of the weekend,
Speaker 1: claiming Senator Joe Mansion saved the White House from themselves
Speaker 1: by shooting down build back better. We'll have more on
Speaker 1: that on tonight's Buckbrief. First, let's talk about protecting your
Speaker 1: home's title. If you own a home or property, here's
Speaker 1: two reasons you never want to become the victim of
Speaker 1: hometitle fraud. Number One, when a cyber criminal worms his
Speaker 1: way under your home's title, will take out loan after loan,
Speaker 1: using your home's equity. Then he'll vanish, leaving it to
Speaker 1: prove you didn't commit fraud. Number Two, you could be
Speaker 1: a victim of hometitle fraud and not even know it.
Speaker 1: For months no agency notifies you or asked you if
Speaker 1: you sold your home or added someone to the title.
Speaker 1: You'll find out when the collection calls start for loans
Speaker 1: you never took out. Nobody knows more about how to
Speaker 1: help stop this crime than home title Lock, America's trusted leader.
Speaker 1: Here's what I urge you to do. Go to hometitlelock
Speaker 1: dot com, read the testimonials from retired FBI agents and others.
Speaker 1: Then register your home address to see if you're already
Speaker 1: a victim. When you protect your home, tell them Buck
Speaker 1: sex and sent you for thirty three days of protection
Speaker 1: hometitlelock dot com. That's home titlelock dot com. Stephen Moore
Speaker 1: stops by stay with us. Amazon founder Jeff Bezos is
Speaker 1: taking a wrecking ball to the Biden administration's handling them inflation,
Speaker 1: tweeting quote, the administration tried hard to inject even more
Speaker 1: stimulus into an already overheated inflationary economy, and only mansion
Speaker 1: saved them from themselves. Inflation is a regressive tax that
Speaker 1: most hurts the least affluent. Misdirection doesn't help the country.
Speaker 1: This is the second time this week Bezos has blasted
Speaker 1: Biden's Build Back Better plan. It looks like he's not
Speaker 1: stopping there. We'll get into it in tonight's Buckbrief. So
Speaker 1: let's start with the basics. What causes inflation? Government spending.
Speaker 1: No serious person, no real economists, or anybody else who
Speaker 1: understands the basics of economic theory would tell you otherwise.
Speaker 1: It's a issue of monetary policy, straight up and straightforward.
Speaker 1: So then why is the Biden administration pretending it's all
Speaker 1: these other things? Well, as you know, Oh, the Biden
Speaker 1: regime likes to spend a whole lot of money, and
Speaker 1: they like to spend on things that they view as
Speaker 1: either being social justice or climate change related, just spreading
Speaker 1: the wealth around the usual class warfare nonsense. Turns out
Speaker 1: that actually would make inflation worse, and we should all
Speaker 1: know that. That should be obvious, And in fact, it
Speaker 1: is so obvious that even Democrat Jeff Bezos, one of
Speaker 1: the richest people in the world, has started to take
Speaker 1: the Biden White House to task for this. The White
Speaker 1: House put in a statement on Bezos and tweets. By
Speaker 1: the way, it doesn't require a huge loop leap to
Speaker 1: figure out why one of the wealthiest individuals on Earth
Speaker 1: opposes an economic agenda for the middle class that cuts
Speaker 1: some of the biggest cost families fight fights inflation for
Speaker 1: the long haul, whatever the hell that means, and adds
Speaker 1: the historic deficit reduction the president is achieving by asking
Speaker 1: the richest taxpayers and corporations to pay their fair share,
Speaker 1: which is the stupidest talking point in the planet. It's
Speaker 1: also on surprising. This tweet comes after the President met
Speaker 1: with labor organizers, including Amazon employees. So White House, you're
Speaker 1: taking shots directly adject bezos, and they're trying to pretend
Speaker 1: that first of all, this notion of fighting inflation for
Speaker 1: the long haul by raising taxes on the rich, that's
Speaker 1: going to fight inflation for the long haul. What about
Speaker 1: inflation over the next six months? What about inflation while
Speaker 1: people can't actually afford groceries the way they used to
Speaker 1: be able to before Joe Biden was present. And I
Speaker 1: don't want to think about any of that bezos. For
Speaker 1: his part, it's not sitting back and taking this, which
Speaker 1: was good to see. He replied to the White House
Speaker 1: a statement, Look a squirrel, this is the White House
Speaker 1: a statement about my recent tweets. They understandably want to
Speaker 1: muddy the topic. But no, inflation hurts the neediest the most.
Speaker 1: But unions aren't causing inflation, and neither are wealthy people. Remember,
Speaker 1: the administration tried their best to add another three point
Speaker 1: five trillion dollars to federal spending. They failed, but if
Speaker 1: they had succeeded, inflation would be even her than it
Speaker 1: is today. An inflation today is at a forty year high.
Speaker 1: Now this is a roundhouse kick to the face of
Speaker 1: the Biden regime, There's no question about it. When somebody
Speaker 1: who not only built and runs the largest products and
Speaker 1: goods company really in the world, Amazon is saying that
Speaker 1: inflation is a huge problem and that it would be
Speaker 1: worse if the Democrats actually got what they wanted, which
Speaker 1: is clearly true. People sit up and take notice, so
Speaker 1: understand that as bad as inflation is, what Jeff Bezos
Speaker 1: is telling you is that the Democrats fought tooth and
Speaker 1: nail to make inflation worse. They wanted to spend trillions
Speaker 1: more additionally, beyond where we already are, and if we're
Speaker 1: not for Joe Mansion standing in their way, they would
Speaker 1: have been able to Joe Mansion goes along with this
Speaker 1: planet Christen Cinema as well, and all of a sudden
Speaker 1: you have additional trillions of government spending on the books,
Speaker 1: and what would happen. Inflation would rise even more. So
Speaker 1: this is a real political liability of the Democrats, because
Speaker 1: it makes clear that not only have they done a
Speaker 1: crappy job, if they weren't stopped from doing exactly what
Speaker 1: they wanted to do, even more so, the inflation situation
Speaker 1: would be even worse than it currently is now. Alongside
Speaker 1: the inflation problem, of course, there's the situation of the
Speaker 1: baby formula shortage out there right now. Now. Abbot put
Speaker 1: out Abbot Labs put out something on baby formula saying
Speaker 1: that it was there was an exhaustive and thrown. Now
Speaker 1: this is from the company, so take that with a
Speaker 1: grain assault. They said that there has been no actual
Speaker 1: connection to the two deaths of infants and the bacteria
Speaker 1: that was found in their systems an actual contamination of
Speaker 1: the Abbot facility, but it was shut down anyway by
Speaker 1: the FDA and hasn't been able to get back online.
Speaker 1: Now being told that Abbott Labs is going to be
Speaker 1: able to put more formula on the shelves than a
Speaker 1: matter of weeks, the Biden administration has gone from in
Speaker 1: the last ten days or so, this is not our problem.
Speaker 1: We can't do anything about this too. Oh no, no,
Speaker 1: don't worry, we'll fix this. Because they realize people were outraged,
Speaker 1: and yeah, it does seem very strange to put it
Speaker 1: mildly to people that the Biden regime is so quick
Speaker 1: to send forty billion dollars to Ukraine, but doesn't seem
Speaker 1: all that bothered by the realities of the baby formula
Speaker 1: shortage where people are scrambling, parents are desperate and scrambling
Speaker 1: to try to get baby formula because it just isn't
Speaker 1: on the shelf in so many places. Well, the HHS
Speaker 1: as stepped in, of course, the federal government, showing us
Speaker 1: how incompetent they are. They stepped in on the baby
Speaker 1: formula shortage, and here's how it looks on the HHS website.
Speaker 1: The Barrett Biden Harris Administration is working to ensure that
Speaker 1: infant formula is safe and available for families across the country. Yesterday,
Speaker 1: President Biden spoke with retailers and manufacturers including Walmart, Target, Wreckt,
Speaker 1: and Gerber to discuss ways to get more formula quickly
Speaker 1: and safely in the store shelves. Thanks to these efforts,
Speaker 1: manufacturers have ramped up production thirty to fifty percent, bringing
Speaker 1: total production today above pre recall levels. The different mix
Speaker 1: of products and sizes now available in the market, so
Speaker 1: they do have In fact, they did have levers that
Speaker 1: they could push on this acord of the Biden administration.
Speaker 1: And AHHS now has a website about this. Apparently the
Speaker 1: website is also having some problems. But then why do
Speaker 1: they pretend that this wasn't their problem at all a
Speaker 1: week ago? Because honestly, the incompetence of this Biden administration,
Speaker 1: the people that are in charge, is hard to overstate.
Speaker 1: I mean, these people are just not very bright. That's
Speaker 1: really where we are with the Biden administration. That's a
Speaker 1: situation as it is unfolding. One thing I want to
Speaker 1: put out there for your American households right now, I'm concerned.
Speaker 1: I'm seeing real warnings we could have a major downturn
Speaker 1: of the housing market. I think about what that would do.
Speaker 1: The economy could be heading for stagflation and recession. Who knows.
Speaker 1: American household debt increased the first quarter of this Your
Speaker 1: total household debt increased two hundred and sixty six billion,
Speaker 1: reaching fifteen point eight four trillion. That is an increase
Speaker 1: of one point seven trillion from out of twenty nineteen.
Speaker 1: People have a lot of debt, a lot of household
Speaker 1: debt right now, and if housing values go down dramatically,
Speaker 1: we could see the real stormy waters in the economy.
Speaker 1: All right. Former White House Press Secretary jen Psaki was
Speaker 1: getting quite emotional during the introduction of her replacement, Karine
Speaker 1: Jean Pierre. We'll talk to Rob Smith when we come
Speaker 1: back in just a moment. Before I get to the briefing,
Speaker 1: I just want to start by I'm a cry. I
Speaker 1: just want to take the opportunity to celebrate and congratulate
Speaker 1: my friend, my colleague, my partner in truth, Karen Jean Pierre,
Speaker 1: the next White House Press Secretary. Former White House Press
Speaker 1: Secretary Jensaki got emotional during the introduction of her replacement,
Speaker 1: Karine Jean Pierre. Now that the role has officially been
Speaker 1: handed over, everybody wants to know, are we adding another
Speaker 1: version of Jensaki effectively at the podium or perhaps something
Speaker 1: that could be even more divisive or dishonest in terms
Speaker 1: of the propaganda. Do I mean now to discuss this
Speaker 1: host of the brand new podcast, can't cancel? Rob Smith?
Speaker 1: Mister Rob Smith, good to see you, sir. What's going on? Buck?
Speaker 1: How you doing? I mean, what is what is your
Speaker 1: reaction to this? And I have to say, Jen Saki,
Speaker 1: look the White House Press secretary. Maybe people feel like
Speaker 1: it used to be a role that was more of
Speaker 1: a governor role, and now it is. Whichever administration you're
Speaker 1: talking about, it's somebody who is advancing the interests of
Speaker 1: the administration through PR right, and Jen Saki was an
Speaker 1: aggressive PR flack. What do you expect from her replacement? Well,
Speaker 1: first of all, I thought it was really funny when
Speaker 1: she said this is my partner in truth. That is
Speaker 1: actually hysterical. I really wanted to laugh at that. But
Speaker 1: what I expect from Karneon Pierre is not to be Look,
Speaker 1: you say what you want about Jen Saki, because what
Speaker 1: she did was she got up there and she lied
Speaker 1: to the American public. But she was a very very
Speaker 1: good liar, and she was a very good propagandist for
Speaker 1: the Biden administration. What to be expected from Krene John
Speaker 1: Pierre if any of these videos of her calling everything
Speaker 1: racist on cable news over the past ten years is
Speaker 1: to be any sort of indication, is that we're going
Speaker 1: to get somebody that is less polished. We're gonna get
Speaker 1: somebody that is probably a little bit more emotional, and
Speaker 1: we're also going to get And what I'm really not
Speaker 1: looking forward to is how the mainstream media is going
Speaker 1: to come in and sort of try to protect Krenge
Speaker 1: John Pierre because she is a black woman. Now, mind you,
Speaker 1: Peter Doocey at Fox News is one of the most
Speaker 1: aggressive questioners of Jen Saki, and we all got a
Speaker 1: real kick out of seeing them go back and forth
Speaker 1: because Fox News is probably one of the only outlets
Speaker 1: in that White House press room that is asking any
Speaker 1: real questions. So what I'm what I think we're gonna
Speaker 1: see is Jen, excuse me, Peter Doocy asking Krene John
Speaker 1: Pierre these tough questions. In a lot of people in
Speaker 1: the mainstream media say, oh, look at racist Fox News
Speaker 1: reporter Peter Doocey being racist and aggressive towards black White
Speaker 1: House Press Secretary Corene John Pierre. So you're gonna see
Speaker 1: You're gonna be seeing a lot of that, especially from
Speaker 1: the wing of the mainstream media that is basically the
Speaker 1: black liberal wing that talks about nothing but race, race,
Speaker 1: race all the time at nauseum. We're gonna hear a
Speaker 1: lot more from them. What Corene John Pierre at the
Speaker 1: Helm here is the new White House Press Secretary, to
Speaker 1: your point about how race and racism conversations in the
Speaker 1: media are likely to become even more common around the
Speaker 1: issue of the new White House Press Secretary. Here she
Speaker 1: is saying that she thinks a lot of things are racist.
Speaker 1: I want to put up these awful voter registrations, vote
Speaker 1: suppression laws, which is racism. To make it difficult for
Speaker 1: people of color to vote and vote suppression is racism.
Speaker 1: That's exactly what it is. Fox News was racist before coronavirus.
Speaker 1: They are racist during the coronavirus. Fox News will be
Speaker 1: racist after the coronavirus. Racism was here before Donald Trump
Speaker 1: and is sadly it will be here after Donald Trump.
Speaker 1: It walks like a racist, talks like a racist, acts
Speaker 1: like a racist. It is a racist. I mean, I'm
Speaker 1: sure we could have gone on with that clip if
Speaker 1: we had wanted to, for probably the whole segment, just
Speaker 1: having her or talking about how everything is racist. Do
Speaker 1: you think this may get tiresome or is this a
Speaker 1: tactic that we should expect from the new White House
Speaker 1: Press Secretary. You know, I think it's a tactic. It's
Speaker 1: not only a tactic from her, it's a tactic from
Speaker 1: the Biden administration. Like I said, these people want America
Speaker 1: to be focused on nothing but race and racism and
Speaker 1: the culture wars and all that other stuff. Because if
Speaker 1: we're not focused on race and racism and the culture wars,
Speaker 1: then we're focused on the absolute incompetence that has come
Speaker 1: from this administration. Then we're focused on high gas prices.
Speaker 1: Then we're focused on expensive groceries, and we're focusing on
Speaker 1: the crisis on the border. We're focusing on this administration,
Speaker 1: which has been one disaster after the next for the
Speaker 1: past eighteen months. They do not want us to focus
Speaker 1: on these things. So you know, they're going to bring
Speaker 1: out the black White House Press secretary. They're gonna call
Speaker 1: everything racist, and everything is going to be a conversation
Speaker 1: about whether aggressive questioning of her is racist, whether Fox
Speaker 1: News or any other conservative leaning outlets that ask real
Speaker 1: questions or being racist for aggressive questioning. So they want
Speaker 1: us to be talking about this stuff. They want us
Speaker 1: to be talking about anything other than they're absolute failures
Speaker 1: on multiple levels. And The New York Post has done
Speaker 1: a little bit of checking up on the new White
Speaker 1: House Press secretary. They looked at Jean Pierre's tweaks between
Speaker 1: twenty fifteen and twenty twenty and found a staggering fifty
Speaker 1: seven instances where she accused people, policies, ideas, or words
Speaker 1: of being racist. Fifty seven times. Jean Pierre accused people
Speaker 1: and ideas she was opposed to as racist at least
Speaker 1: forty three times in TV appearances, So she definitely likes
Speaker 1: a love that accusation around. Yeah, she does. And the
Speaker 1: thing about the I want to call it sort of
Speaker 1: like the black liberal ecosystem in the media, which is,
Speaker 1: you know, you have a lot of people that get
Speaker 1: these jobs as flacks for organizations. You know, she was
Speaker 1: a senior advisor for move On, she was a spokesperson
Speaker 1: all of this other stuff, and it seems like the
Speaker 1: primary qualification is literally just being black and calling things racist.
Speaker 1: And so you get your ten thousand hours of calling
Speaker 1: things racist in the mainstream media on cable news under
Speaker 1: your belt, then I guess you're rewarded with a position
Speaker 1: like this. It's kind of unreal, but this is where
Speaker 1: we are. I hope that they surprise me. I hope
Speaker 1: that we don't devolve into constant conversations about everything and
Speaker 1: everyone being racist. When she takes the helm of the
Speaker 1: White House as a White House Press secretary, but I
Speaker 1: I am not hopeful. Rob. You've also launched Switching Gears here,
Speaker 1: a new podcast, and dare I say you are a
Speaker 1: fearless and insightful fellow all the time. So looking forward
Speaker 1: to hearing some of this. Can't Cancel Rob Smith is
Speaker 1: the name of the podcast. Tell us what is the
Speaker 1: mission for it and what can people expect? You know,
Speaker 1: I think the mission for Can't Cancel Rob Smith is
Speaker 1: just to have sort of these honest conversations with my
Speaker 1: take on thing. Buck. You know that I don't always
Speaker 1: tell the conservative line when it comes to opinions about things.
Speaker 1: I think that the podcast space allows me that more
Speaker 1: nuanced conversations with my followers and fans. I have to
Speaker 1: call them the problematics. And you know, I had a
Speaker 1: podcast before I got put on ice for a lot
Speaker 1: of different legal reasons. We're not going to go into
Speaker 1: all of those, but I really missed having that outlet because,
Speaker 1: like you know, Buck, you know, you have this show,
Speaker 1: you do the radio thing and all that, and you
Speaker 1: get more time to really break down the issues and
Speaker 1: really delve into things than you get it and maybe
Speaker 1: a three to four minute, you know, cable news segment,
Speaker 1: or even one of the longer segments that we do.
Speaker 1: So can't cancel, Rob Smith. Find it on Apple Podcasts,
Speaker 1: iHeart podcast wherever you get your podcasts. We're gonna be launching.
Speaker 1: We're actually launched right now. We're gonna be going Tuesday, Wednesday,
Speaker 1: and Friday every week. So definitely download and subscribe to
Speaker 1: that if you like me, if you like what you're hearing,
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a lot more of it, Rob, real quick,
Speaker 1: when are we going to switch chairs? I've never been
Speaker 1: interviewed by Rob Smith, so this would be you know,
Speaker 1: I've had you on so many times. I want to
Speaker 1: be on the hot seat. Huh. You gotta put me
Speaker 1: in the mix here? Oh, that will definitely do that, man.
Speaker 1: I you know, I try to get my audience, get us,
Speaker 1: get them used to hearing me running my mouth a lot.
Speaker 1: But we're definitely gonna get you on the podcast and
Speaker 1: get your tame to look at this, you know. I
Speaker 1: you know, maybe you make the cut. Maybe it'll make
Speaker 1: the cut. We'll see, all right, all right, Rob, it's
Speaker 1: gonna be a good podcast. You you always gonna make
Speaker 1: the cut. You know, I think that the radio show
Speaker 1: needs a little bit more promotion. So if I can
Speaker 1: help you out, I'll do that. I appreciate good to
Speaker 1: see my friend. Thanks for making time for us today.
Speaker 1: All right, but no worries. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas
Speaker 1: takes a shot at the US media. We have that
Speaker 1: video and more in tonight's Quick Hits Stay with Us.
Speaker 1: Doctor Fouci gives us another reason to support Donald Trump
Speaker 1: and Kamala Harris, proving once again that her rhetorical skills
Speaker 1: are not what you'd think they would be at this point,
Speaker 1: given she's a vice president of the United States. We
Speaker 1: have those stories coming up in Quick Hits. First of all,
Speaker 1: I found she was not an abject coward. He would
Speaker 1: come forward and say to people who are still as
Speaker 1: I saw on a flight this weekend, double masking on planes,
Speaker 1: young people in some cases twenty five thirty years old,
Speaker 1: masking on plane, Why do they mask anywhere else? No,
Speaker 1: but they know that the Democrats who take the virus serous,
Speaker 1: who still mask on planes. It's all social and virtue signaling.
Speaker 1: It has really no bearing whatsoever on science. I found
Speaker 1: she were truly a man of science. If he actually
Speaker 1: cared about the people who are putting themselves through this
Speaker 1: absurdity and all the anxiety and discomfort that comes along
Speaker 1: with it, he would say, go live your lives. Normally,
Speaker 1: he won't do that because he is a meglomaniac and
Speaker 1: a coward, and he has been more destructive. His ideology
Speaker 1: when it comes to how to handle the pandemic has
Speaker 1: been more destructive than any other human being in American
Speaker 1: And I would argue the world now. Pauci would say,
Speaker 1: and is willing to say, at least at this point,
Speaker 1: that if Trump were to win the presidency, he would
Speaker 1: quit launch. If Trump were to return to the White
Speaker 1: House as president and COVID is still a threat, or
Speaker 1: there's some other public health emergency, would you have confidence
Speaker 1: in his ability? Would you have confidence in his ability
Speaker 1: to deal with the pandemic of this nature? Would you
Speaker 1: want to stay on in your post? Well, no to
Speaker 1: the second question. The first question, I think the answer
Speaker 1: I had to ask you if you look at the
Speaker 1: history of what their response was during the administration, I
Speaker 1: think you know, at best you could say it wasn't optimal.
Speaker 1: And I think just history will speak for itself about that.
Speaker 1: I don't need to make any further comment on that, Jim,
Speaker 1: that's it's not productive. You would not serve with Trump again, though,
Speaker 1: bear to say, right right for sure? Oh, interesting, because
Speaker 1: that's not what he was saying. Of course, he's trying
Speaker 1: to keep his job under Trump and also as probably
Speaker 1: have an explanation for why more people died under Biden's
Speaker 1: first year than under Trump's last year, when the pandemic
Speaker 1: was in its first year and therefore its most dangerous
Speaker 1: no vaccine in distribution to the very end of Trump's
Speaker 1: twenty twenty year in office. So what exactly the explanation
Speaker 1: for that? And what way was Biden better by terrifying
Speaker 1: people by telling them where masks like morons all over
Speaker 1: the place. Yet bouch she's the worst. Justice Thomas is
Speaker 1: the best. He's amazing. Actually, he's a national treasure, a
Speaker 1: fantastic human being, a brilliant mind, and he had some
Speaker 1: choice words for the Lib media recently. Watch this one.
Speaker 1: One of the things I said in response to the
Speaker 1: media is when they talk about, especially early on, about
Speaker 1: the way I did my job, I said, I will
Speaker 1: absolutely leave the court when I do my job as
Speaker 1: poorly as you do yours, and that was meant as
Speaker 1: a compliment. Really, he's right, He's right. They do their
Speaker 1: job very poorly, and he does a job incredibly well,
Speaker 1: of course in the Supreme Court, and the Libs absolutely
Speaker 1: despise him for it. But hopefully the five justices who
Speaker 1: have some integrity, some decency, and some honor, as it
Speaker 1: prepains to the Constitution, will hold the line, so to speak,
Speaker 1: and drop the decision that will overturn Roe v. Wade
Speaker 1: and then onto something that's certainly lighter situation, certainly less
Speaker 1: rave than the future of Review Wade. And that is
Speaker 1: the status of the Vice President in public life. Kamala Harris.
Speaker 1: You would think that Joe Biden would be the one
Speaker 1: with the most amusing gaps. But I just want you
Speaker 1: to notice Kamala Harris here this is in thirty seconds.
Speaker 1: Notice what she says a few times about Climate Change Watch.
Speaker 1: I often note and have talked with many of you
Speaker 1: about our shared belief that our world is increasingly more
Speaker 1: interconnected and interdependent. That is especially true when it comes
Speaker 1: to the climate crisis, which is why we will work
Speaker 1: together and continue to work together to address these issues,
Speaker 1: to tackle these challenges, and to work together as we
Speaker 1: continue to work operating from the new norms, rules and
Speaker 1: agreements that we will convene to work together on to
Speaker 1: galvanize global action. With that, I thank you all. This
Speaker 1: is a matter of urgent priority for all of us
Speaker 1: and I know we will work on this together. Does
Speaker 1: she want them to work on it together? I'm not
Speaker 1: clear on that as ever. Tonight's hold the line, the
Speaker 1: no Spinoos of phill O'Reilly is next. Fields High
