Speaker 1: You're listening to the Buck Sexton Show podcast, make sure
Speaker 1: you subscribe to the podcast on the iHeartRadio app or
Speaker 1: wherever you get your podcasts. Things get messy out at
Speaker 1: a turning point event at Berkeley, the supposed birthplace of
Speaker 1: the free speech movement, where there is more speech fascism
Speaker 1: and authoritarianism than a lot of other places you could
Speaker 1: find across the country, that is for sure. We are
Speaker 1: joined by Chloetrepinado. She is at town hall dot com.
Speaker 1: It's all Politics is her handle online if you will
Speaker 1: go check out her YouTube channel and all of her
Speaker 1: great work there.
Speaker 2: So let me just give you this, Chloe.
Speaker 1: So, you had a bunch of Antifa maniacs storming this
Speaker 1: turning point event at Berkeley, wearing cafeas always a bad
Speaker 1: always a bad sign, and they got guys, you know,
Speaker 1: with bloody faces and people causing a melee in the streets.
Speaker 1: What do these lunatics think they accomplish by doing this? Like,
Speaker 1: what's the motivation? So far as we can understand these things?
Speaker 3: Really good question. Back, Well, they didn't just work cafeas
Speaker 3: they also wore the furry costumes. That's my favorite when
Speaker 3: they show up in a dinosaur costume or some sort
Speaker 3: of unicorn mask. It really makes them look very serious.
Speaker 3: But I think their goal is to almost defund the
Speaker 3: Charlie Kirk movement. Like we say, like they say, defund
Speaker 3: the police. They're now want to defund all that Charlie
Speaker 3: Kirk and TPUSA is doing, and it's just simply not
Speaker 3: going to work. Like I said, they are unserious people.
Speaker 3: They are also now deemed terrorist or a terrorist organization.
Speaker 3: They're Antifa, So I'm not sure why we're not allowed
Speaker 3: to carry out arrests just yet, but I am very
Speaker 3: excited for those arrests to ensue. I'm also confused as
Speaker 3: to why US Berkeley is still receiving federal dollars. They've
Speaker 3: received billions in taxpayer funding every year. So I'm looking
Speaker 3: for some arrests and I'm looking for some relinquishing of
Speaker 3: those funds because I do not believe that they should
Speaker 3: be getting funding for calling for, well celebrating the death
Speaker 3: of Charlie Kirk. And there were also people screaming F
Speaker 3: your homie. I mean, what the heck if Dave Portnoy
Speaker 3: can get people fired for them screaming f the Jews,
Speaker 3: which is terrible somebody should be getting fired for screaming
Speaker 3: af your homie.
Speaker 1: I didn't even know about that. This is I'm looking
Speaker 1: at this mess here. My friend Andy No, who has
Speaker 1: been covering Antifa more closely than anybody now for about
Speaker 1: a decade. He's showing that they had to do the
Speaker 1: whole thing, the the deployment, you know, tear gas and
Speaker 1: you know the riot police, police.
Speaker 2: In riot gear.
Speaker 1: Some of my cop prints said, there's no such thing
Speaker 1: as riot police, but cops in riot gear, anti riot gear.
Speaker 2: You know they're doing this. And I got two things
Speaker 2: of this.
Speaker 1: One is this always means that there will be more
Speaker 1: coverage of the event than there would otherwise be. So
Speaker 1: to me aside from the law breaking, insanity and viciousness
Speaker 1: of these anti Flamniacs, it's like this means that everybody
Speaker 1: in the country gets to see them like jackasses. And
Speaker 1: they also go, oh, Turning Points have another free speech event,
Speaker 1: Maybe I should go to the next one.
Speaker 3: It does it highlights everything the Turning Point USA is doing,
Speaker 3: and so they not only bring the cameras and all
Speaker 3: the attention, but it just creates more ire for the
Speaker 3: conservative movement, and I think it gives them even more
Speaker 3: reason to go to these events. I for one, would
Speaker 3: love to attend a TPUSA event whenever it comes into town,
Speaker 3: whenever they come back to DC. But yeah, I think
Speaker 3: you're completely right. I think there's no reason for them
Speaker 3: to be doing this other than they have nothing better
Speaker 3: to do on any of these evenings, whether it's a
Speaker 3: Monday or a Friday night. These ANTIFA people are apparently free.
Speaker 3: It's their form of partying in college. No longer are
Speaker 3: people going out to bars into frats at these ivy leagues.
Speaker 3: They're simply attending riots, and it's quite hilarious, you know.
Speaker 1: The The other thing, though, is that there is no
Speaker 1: equivalent of like left wing campus organizations or get togethers
Speaker 1: or anything where a bunch of conservative show up and
Speaker 1: have to be tear gas because they're trying to you know,
Speaker 1: storm the barricades and tackle cops and throw things at
Speaker 1: people that are otherwise engaged.
Speaker 2: In lawful behavior.
Speaker 1: You know, we brushed this aside as the anti femaniacs,
Speaker 1: but they really are the street thugs of the DNC.
Speaker 1: I mean, these are left wing people that support much
Speaker 1: of the Democrat program.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they are so violent. Somebody I think it was
Speaker 3: Charlie Kirk's producer Andrew He posted a video on X
Speaker 3: of the discrepancies between or the disparities excuse me, between
Speaker 3: these two events. You had inside of the event people
Speaker 3: they were applauding, they were cheering, they were praying, they
Speaker 3: were peacefully attending such a wholesome Christian conservative event where
Speaker 3: there was just so much joy. And then right outside
Speaker 3: of those walls, where people filled with antidepressants rage higher
Speaker 3: to all of the people inside and outside of the walls,
Speaker 3: there was violence. There were things being thrown, like you said,
Speaker 3: tear gas, arrests were being made. It's just like the
Speaker 3: conservative movement. That's kind of like reflective of the entire
Speaker 3: movement as a whole. Inside of the conservative movement, it's calm,
Speaker 3: it's peaceful, it's like a little utopia. But the outside
Speaker 3: people are constantly trying to break in, and it's just
Speaker 3: total madness in haywire. So I think we have to
Speaker 3: try as hard as we may to keep our little
Speaker 3: utopia and keep safe in here. We gotta be careful.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I you know, we're keeping civilization together. You know,
Speaker 1: no big deal deal, it's us or the maniacs. I
Speaker 1: also think It's always worth noting that people that think
Speaker 1: they're fighting fascism are the ones all dressed in black
Speaker 1: forming a mob using violence to shut down speech. It's like,
Speaker 1: I think you guys and Antifa have this backwards. But
Speaker 1: that's a whole other part of the conversation. Our sponsor
Speaker 1: here is Preborn. Preborn is an incredible nonprofit because amazing
Speaker 1: work saving lots of unborn children. They do this by
Speaker 1: giving love and support and options to women who come
Speaker 1: into the clinics, and they start this process so often
Speaker 1: with an ultrasound, a free ultrasound. Because when mom to
Speaker 1: be comes in and she meets the tiny baby in
Speaker 1: her womb, she sees that heartbeat, she understands that this
Speaker 1: is a life growing inside her. The decision for life
Speaker 1: becomes so easy, and Preborn gives so much help up
Speaker 1: the two years after that baby is born. You can
Speaker 1: help save the lives of tiny babies. Right now, twenty
Speaker 1: eight dollars provides a free ultrasound to any woman coming
Speaker 1: into a preborn clinic all across the country. They're saving
Speaker 1: tens of thousands of babies a year in this way.
Speaker 1: It donates securely. Go to preborn dot com slash buck.
Speaker 1: That's preborn dot com slash buck.
Speaker 2: Or you can pick up your.
Speaker 1: Phone and dial pound.
Speaker 2: Two fifty say the keyword baby.
Speaker 1: That's pound two five zero, say baby sponsored by Preborn Chloe.
Speaker 1: You're a DC person, You're a town hall and a
Speaker 1: politics person. You're a DC person. I used to live there.
Speaker 1: One thing that I find I find a little curre.
Speaker 1: Trump had this whole I'm gonna make DC safer. And
Speaker 1: I've looked up the stats, and I think murders since
Speaker 1: this Trump effort went into play went to effect or
Speaker 1: down sixty percent something like that year over year, and
Speaker 1: yet we're not hearing about that.
Speaker 2: Where's the national media on this?
Speaker 1: What do you know about the efforts to make DC
Speaker 1: safer or make DC great again?
Speaker 2: As Trump has been saying.
Speaker 3: Well, I can tell you as somebody who lives here,
Speaker 3: and I walk the streets in the dark. I try
Speaker 3: not to, but sometimes you have to. I have felt
Speaker 3: immensely more safe. The National Guard has done an excellent
Speaker 3: job at keeping the peace in this city. And of
Speaker 3: course the national media is not going to talk about it.
Speaker 3: Democrats hate to highlight any good that Republicans are doing. However,
Speaker 3: it is true you do not hear sirens anymore. I
Speaker 3: think the first night, I remember the helicopter is going above,
Speaker 3: and you heard the police cars and the sirens. For
Speaker 3: three days. You heard that for hours starting at ten o'clock.
Speaker 3: Now you don't hear much of it at all. The
Speaker 3: the National Guard is everywhere. I see people thanking them
Speaker 3: on the streets as they're walking by. The other day,
Speaker 3: I saw the National Guard handing out food to homeless people.
Speaker 3: They're very, very peaceful men. They're doing an excellent job.
Speaker 3: They're sacrificing a lot of their time to be here,
Speaker 3: and I think you're starting to see residents finally be
Speaker 3: very appreciative of that. No longer are they yelling slurs
Speaker 3: at them or being mean or cruel. They're appreciative because
Speaker 3: they see the difference that they are making in all
Speaker 3: of our lives. Truly, the city has transformed thanks to
Speaker 3: President Trump and the National Guard's help. However, I will
Speaker 3: say there are still a lot of homeless people, still
Speaker 3: a lot of encampments. The only thing that is left
Speaker 3: to do is clean that up a little bit. I
Speaker 3: don't know if I have a complete solution for those
Speaker 3: those people.
Speaker 2: I think it's going to be the city, right.
Speaker 1: The National Guard can provide just because by having armed
Speaker 1: men and women of the state in uniform, it's less
Speaker 1: likely someone's going to roll up and carjack you, right.
Speaker 1: I mean, I think we can all, but they're not
Speaker 1: really there to clean up the homeless encampments. That's going
Speaker 1: to be Mayor Bowser and the You know, it's such
Speaker 1: a challenge because people think, oh, if only we had
Speaker 1: more resources. I've spoken to people who have worked very
Speaker 1: closely with the homeless in these major cities, and first
Speaker 1: of all, you're talking about something like ninety to ninety
Speaker 1: five percent of the people who are in these encampments
Speaker 1: are drug addicted, and often these two things can go together,
Speaker 1: not always very mentally ill and have like real mental
Speaker 1: health problems. And I say that meaning these are people
Speaker 1: that really need help, and yet the system has moved
Speaker 1: away from You can't live on the street. You have
Speaker 1: to get help to keep living on the street. It's
Speaker 1: your choice. I think a lot of people think that's
Speaker 1: the more humanitarian thing to do, But if somebody is
Speaker 1: severely drug addicted and mentally ill, it's really not. Actually
Speaker 1: it's it's actually we're abdicating a responsibility by allowing that
Speaker 1: to continue.
Speaker 3: It's really not good for them whatsoever. I can tell
Speaker 3: you walking past them sleeping in the freezing cold right
Speaker 3: outside of my home with their twelve blankets and their
Speaker 3: little lovey doll. They have stuffed animals that they PLoP
Speaker 3: a top of their stacks of bed sheets every morning
Speaker 3: when they go on their morning walks. It's not humanitarian
Speaker 3: to let them continue to do that. I completely agree
Speaker 3: with you. Yeah, I think they're thinking is flawed. There.
Speaker 1: I want to ask you about Chuck Schumer in the
Speaker 1: end of the shutdown here in just a second. But
Speaker 1: first up our sponsor's Paradigm Press look. In the last
Speaker 1: month or so, so many thousands of you have signed
Speaker 1: up for this totally separate project I'm working on, which
Speaker 1: is called Money and Power. It's an e newsletter that
Speaker 1: brings together big stories and politics with stories in the
Speaker 1: markets and opportunities for investing. And this is about leveling
Speaker 1: the playing field so everyday folks can get a fair
Speaker 1: shot in investing and understand what's really happening. I've teamed
Speaker 1: up with great equity analyst stock analysts, people that have
Speaker 1: been in this game for a long time and have
Speaker 1: very extensive knowledge and great track records. Go check this
Speaker 1: out for yourself. You've to sign up. You've subscribed totally
Speaker 1: separate from this program. Insider twenty twenty five dot com.
Speaker 1: Join this move and today get eighty two percent off
Speaker 1: Insider twenty twenty five dot com. That's the website paid
Speaker 1: for by Paradigm Press.
Speaker 2: So was this all, Chloe? Was this a big loss
Speaker 2: for Schumer?
Speaker 1: Is Schumer's political future in extreme doubt among Democrats?
Speaker 2: How do you assess all this?
Speaker 3: Absolutely? I think every single Democrat and their caucus knows
Speaker 3: that Chuck Schummer is on his way out. He might
Speaker 3: as well just go join Joe Biden at the beach,
Speaker 3: grab a cone, lock some ice cream, and spend the
Speaker 3: rest of his days in a bikini because his time
Speaker 3: is over. The poor guy, I mean, even the Wall
Speaker 3: Street Journal op ed said you have to feel bad
Speaker 3: for him. He was put between a rock and a
Speaker 3: hard place. Obviously, I don't feel that for him. However,
Speaker 3: you feel just a little bit of sympathy because he
Speaker 3: had no choice. He either opened back the government up
Speaker 3: and enraged millions of Democrats who would have rather kept
Speaker 3: it closed, or he kept it closed and enraged the
Speaker 3: entire rest of the country. He didn't really have much
Speaker 3: of a good option there. His Democrats and his fellow
Speaker 3: colleagues put him in a really tough position. So I
Speaker 3: think he did the right thing obviously, opening up the government.
Speaker 3: Forty two million Americans were going without SNAP. A lot
Speaker 3: eight million of those just about we're veterans. Obviously, it's
Speaker 3: Veterans Day. We thank our veterans. We want them to
Speaker 3: get their benefits. They might be one of the only
Speaker 3: groups in that SNAP category that truly received those or
Speaker 3: deserve those benefits. So I'm glad that they could get
Speaker 3: their care, and I'm glad the airports could get opened
Speaker 3: back up so people can travel for the holiday season.
Speaker 3: I'm glad that families weren't missing a third paycheck. Of course,
Speaker 3: the Democrats had to open it up, but Chuck Schumer
Speaker 3: is going to get a lot of the blame, and
Speaker 3: as he should.
Speaker 1: Chuck Schumer, I guess he didn't really have much of
Speaker 1: a much of an option here. The Bernie AOC wing
Speaker 1: of the party, there's this sense that they ascendant and
Speaker 1: going into the midterm election year, we'll be hearing a
Speaker 1: lot more of them. Do you think that that's where
Speaker 1: What are your DC folks, what are the Beltway insiders
Speaker 1: saying about this? Is that really the belief for our
Speaker 1: Democrats going to play the old We'll bring down prices
Speaker 1: and focus on healthcare, act like they are in tune
Speaker 1: with real concerns for Americans, even if they're not, Like,
Speaker 1: how do you see that playing out?
Speaker 3: This is actually going to be the most interesting thing
Speaker 3: for me to watch play out, I think in my lifetime,
Speaker 3: because all of this is kind of culminating together at
Speaker 3: just the right moment. I'm reading a book from Denise
Speaker 3: Jesusa about the United States of Socialism. I'm learning all
Speaker 3: about socialism at the same time, Mom, Donnie just ascended
Speaker 3: to be the mayor of New York City. You got
Speaker 3: AOC who's going to run for the presidency in twenty
Speaker 3: twenty eight, Bernie Sanders, who for some reason has not retired.
Speaker 3: He might literally die at his desk in Congress. I
Speaker 3: hope not, but you never know. And he obviously is
Speaker 3: a complete and utter socialist. So now the question is where,
Speaker 3: at an inflection point, is America going to turn towards
Speaker 3: socialism completely in these next elections, in the midterm and
Speaker 3: during the presidency and if we do, all of the
Speaker 3: warning signs will just have been thrown out the window.
Speaker 3: And this has started since Fdr Lyndon B. Johnson. These
Speaker 3: guys were enacting progressive policies or excuse me, socialist policies
Speaker 3: in their progressive policies little by little, and now here
Speaker 3: we are in twenty twenty five, and we very well
Speaker 3: could have a socialist, a communist running for the presidency
Speaker 3: in twenty twenty eight in AOC. And you know the
Speaker 3: reason for this is because of the young people. I
Speaker 3: think that over half of gen Z views socialism favorably.
Speaker 3: They didn't live through difficult times whatsoever, and now here
Speaker 3: they are, they're very entitled. Most of their lives have
Speaker 3: just been handed to them, so they don't know the
Speaker 3: difficulties that come with socialism. All they know is what
Speaker 3: they've experienced through capitalism and where that's gotten them. So
Speaker 3: it's going to be very interesting. That was a long
Speaker 3: winded answer, but I think everybody, especially the young people
Speaker 3: who are watching this, the gen Zers, should go back
Speaker 3: read George Orwell's books, Read nineteen eighty four, read Animal Farm,
Speaker 3: and then read Denise Jesus's book The United States socialism.
Speaker 3: It is so interesting because these young people just do
Speaker 3: not know what is about to slap them in the face.
Speaker 1: Alrighty, everyone should check out what Chloe Trapinado's up to
Speaker 1: over a town hall and it's all politics on a YouTube.
Speaker 1: And Chloe appreciate you making the time.
Speaker 3: Thanks so much, Thanks for letting me ramble back.
