1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,719
Speaker 1: People ask us all the time how we can save

2
00:00:02,759 --> 00:00:03,640
Speaker 1: the next generation.

3
00:00:03,960 --> 00:00:06,519
Speaker 2: We've got our show and the info is an antidote.

4
00:00:06,519 --> 00:00:09,080
Speaker 2: But we also have a couple books coming out, Clay.

5
00:00:09,080 --> 00:00:11,480
Speaker 1: That's right, and you can pre order both of them

6
00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:13,880
Speaker 1: right now and be book nerds just like us.

7
00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:16,639
Speaker 2: You'll laugh, you'll nod, and you'll get smarter too.

8
00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:21,360
Speaker 1: Mine's called Balls, How Trump young men in sports saved America.

9
00:00:20,800 --> 00:00:24,400
Speaker 2: And mine is manufacturing delusion How the Left uses brainwashing,

10
00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:27,159
Speaker 2: indoctrination and propaganda against you.

11
00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:30,520
Speaker 1: Both are great reads. One might even say they would

12
00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:31,880
Speaker 1: make fabulous gifts.

13
00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:34,920
Speaker 2: Indeed, so do us a solid and pre order yours

14
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:39,159
Speaker 2: on Amazon today. Welcome everybody to the Wednesday edition of

15
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:44,160
Speaker 2: The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show, Continuing Government Shutdown edition.

16
00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:47,519
Speaker 2: And I got a lot of news to talking about today,

17
00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:49,479
Speaker 2: and we're going to be joined by a couple of

18
00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:52,240
Speaker 2: Senators to discuss some of it. Senator Ran Paul in

19
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:54,880
Speaker 2: the second hour, Senator Ron Johnson in the third hour.

20
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:59,120
Speaker 2: I am here in our nation's capital, so figure should

21
00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:02,360
Speaker 2: talk to some of the lawmens and legislators and people

22
00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:05,560
Speaker 2: making the decisions. And they have a little more time

23
00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:09,520
Speaker 2: on their hands because of this shutdown situation. We've also

24
00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:15,640
Speaker 2: got Trump weighing heavily on the National Guard deployment to Chicago.

25
00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:21,200
Speaker 2: He's got some choice Trump words. James Comy his trial.

26
00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:25,440
Speaker 2: I've got updates for you on that. I've also got

27
00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:31,199
Speaker 2: a well, some Pambondi hearing stuff that we can discuss

28
00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 2: a little bit of. I just wanted to start with

29
00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:37,320
Speaker 2: this though. DC is absolutely lovely right now. It is

30
00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:40,200
Speaker 2: incredible being here now. Some of it might be the

31
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:43,080
Speaker 2: increase in safety because of the Trump agenda, but just

32
00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:47,960
Speaker 2: hear me out, the government shutdown means that this city

33
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:53,280
Speaker 2: is wide open. There's no one clogging the streets, the

34
00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:56,840
Speaker 2: roadways are wide open. You can drive anywhere. It is

35
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:01,080
Speaker 2: a ghost town in all the best ways. So I'm

36
00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:04,280
Speaker 2: having a great time. I'm walking around the broad boulevards,

37
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:06,640
Speaker 2: barely a soul in sight. The restaurants, you can get

38
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 2: a table anywhere. I can drive around. DC has among

39
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:15,800
Speaker 2: the worst traffic congestion areas in the entire country. DC

40
00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:20,320
Speaker 2: is pretty much always a top five contender and often

41
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:23,640
Speaker 2: a top three for the worst traffic. And you have

42
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:27,800
Speaker 2: hundreds of thousands of government workers who are currently on furlough,

43
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:31,280
Speaker 2: not going into these massive federal buildings pushing a bunch

44
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:34,360
Speaker 2: of paper around. So the city is great. I gotta

45
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:37,680
Speaker 2: say this shutdown, it's a fantastic time to be in

46
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:43,440
Speaker 2: this town and having some meetings with various stakeholders and

47
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:47,000
Speaker 2: movers and shakers here, some of it off the record,

48
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:49,120
Speaker 2: but it's interesting stuff that's going on, that much, I

49
00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:52,160
Speaker 2: can tell you. Some people are saying very interesting meetings,

50
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,880
Speaker 2: very interesting for mister Buck. But yeah, I have to

51
00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:57,200
Speaker 2: check in on my people here in DC. Sometimes I'm

52
00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:59,640
Speaker 2: just saying it's a great time. But why should you

53
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:00,400
Speaker 2: care that?

54
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:00,760
Speaker 3: Well?

55
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:04,359
Speaker 2: What do we need all these government workers for? If

56
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:07,600
Speaker 2: everything seems fine without them going to their jobs. I

57
00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:09,679
Speaker 2: think it's a fair ask. Remember the Pentagon is still

58
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:15,600
Speaker 2: going public safety. There's essential and non essential services in

59
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:20,160
Speaker 2: this town, and the non essential includes a lot of

60
00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:23,680
Speaker 2: people who I think are remote remote workers anyway or

61
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:27,920
Speaker 2: have been, and everything seemed to be functioning just fine.

62
00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:30,080
Speaker 2: I don't know. Maybe if you have to wait in

63
00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:33,840
Speaker 2: line longer than normal, or you can't get into the

64
00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:39,440
Speaker 2: certain areas of a national park, you're upset. But for me,

65
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:43,400
Speaker 2: walking around our nation's capital, it feels like the swamp

66
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:48,960
Speaker 2: has been cleared. It's great, and I think that it's

67
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:51,880
Speaker 2: a reminder that we have a massive and bloated federal

68
00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:55,640
Speaker 2: bureaucracy and if there are some changes made to that

69
00:03:55,880 --> 00:04:00,160
Speaker 2: as part of the shutdown, to me, that is a

70
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:02,400
Speaker 2: good thing. That is a good thing. But yeah, I

71
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:05,160
Speaker 2: think this is one of the You have perfect weather,

72
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:09,200
Speaker 2: no bureaucrats, and you can drive anywhere here in this

73
00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 2: town now in less than ten minutes. This is the

74
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:14,600
Speaker 2: best version of DC I can remember. Right, This is great.

75
00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:17,240
Speaker 2: So I'm having a lot of fun here and I'm

76
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:20,560
Speaker 2: down here of course, our in our DC iHeart studio.

77
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:24,480
Speaker 2: All right. Now, with that said, we've got some updates

78
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:27,000
Speaker 2: on a whole range of things. Oh, this is what

79
00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:28,839
Speaker 2: I was looking for when I started off the show.

80
00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:33,679
Speaker 2: Katie Porter, we will discuss this. She's running for governor.

81
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:41,080
Speaker 2: She's a congresswoman. She is not a particularly affable one

82
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:44,320
Speaker 2: and may have done some real damage dur a campaign.

83
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:47,240
Speaker 2: You're just gonna have to hear this exchange, but I

84
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:50,719
Speaker 2: will play that one for you. Has gone megaviral. She

85
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:54,520
Speaker 2: can be very nasty, kind of a nasty exchange with

86
00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:56,600
Speaker 2: a journalist who's trying to ask her some questions. So

87
00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,880
Speaker 2: we will get we will get to that as well,

88
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 2: Katie Porter situation. But as I had to mention to you,

89
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:09,800
Speaker 2: we have as of this morning update here on the

90
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:13,400
Speaker 2: James Comy trial. I believe it is going to be

91
00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:18,040
Speaker 2: happening January fifth. It is set for so that's pretty quick.

92
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 2: They're they're moving pretty fast on this one. And here

93
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:25,960
Speaker 2: is Fox News is Bill Hammer. This is from this morning,

94
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:29,400
Speaker 2: just with that breaking news and laying out some of

95
00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:32,240
Speaker 2: what's going on here for Sankta Komy play it. Here

96
00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:33,239
Speaker 2: is the breaking news.

97
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 4: The former FBI director James Comby in front of a

98
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:38,719
Speaker 4: judge moments ago and a hearing that we did not

99
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:39,960
Speaker 4: think would last long.

100
00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:41,119
Speaker 2: And apparently that is the case.

101
00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:44,320
Speaker 4: He has entered a plea of not guilty to two

102
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:50,040
Speaker 4: charges federal level. Now are producers inside the courtroom say

103
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:52,720
Speaker 4: the former director accused of lying to Congress obstructing a

104
00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:57,039
Speaker 4: congressional proceeding. End of the plea moments ago in front

105
00:05:57,080 --> 00:06:01,600
Speaker 4: of the judge Michael Knockmanoff appointed by Joe not guilty

106
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:04,280
Speaker 4: on both federal charges. He's accused of lying in front

107
00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:06,039
Speaker 4: of Congress back in twenty twenty.

108
00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:10,400
Speaker 2: So that is the update inside the courtroom, so now

109
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:14,280
Speaker 2: he's going to trial. One of the most hilarious arguments

110
00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:17,719
Speaker 2: against this that I keep seeing all over the place

111
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:22,719
Speaker 2: from the Libs is, oh my gosh, the precedent that

112
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:26,840
Speaker 2: has been set here. What would you do, Republicans if

113
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:32,560
Speaker 2: people started to use prosecutors' offices as weapons of politics?

114
00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:35,479
Speaker 2: And to this you just want to say, have you

115
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:38,359
Speaker 2: been asleep for the last decade? Do you have any

116
00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:43,040
Speaker 2: idea what has gone on with four different criminal cases

117
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,680
Speaker 2: brought against Donald Trump, all of which were bogus civil

118
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:47,960
Speaker 2: cases brought against Trump by the State of New York

119
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:53,360
Speaker 2: in one case, and by a woman who claims from

120
00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:56,840
Speaker 2: thirty years ago, thirty something years ago, Trump grabbed her

121
00:06:56,839 --> 00:07:00,480
Speaker 2: in a department store. The stuff that they have done,

122
00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:03,560
Speaker 2: the lawfair they have done against Trump and his family

123
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:08,960
Speaker 2: alone has done tremendous damage to the public's faith in

124
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:13,400
Speaker 2: all of these different facets of our criminal justice system,

125
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:16,160
Speaker 2: or just our justice system of the courts too, because

126
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 2: some of it was civil. This is atrocious. I mean,

127
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:23,280
Speaker 2: the things that have gone on here, the precedents that

128
00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:25,680
Speaker 2: have already been set. Now they want to tell us

129
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:28,440
Speaker 2: we should be worried about going too far in the

130
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:32,320
Speaker 2: other direction. No, they already did this. In fact, what

131
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:36,120
Speaker 2: they have done, what the Democrats have done specifically with

132
00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:40,240
Speaker 2: the targeted lawfair against Donald Trump, among many others. It's

133
00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:44,320
Speaker 2: really Trump and Trump world, everybody who is Trump adjacent

134
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:48,800
Speaker 2: all the way to January sixth, defendants, right, it's the

135
00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:54,000
Speaker 2: whole Trump movement that they have used the prosecutor's office.

136
00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:58,920
Speaker 2: They have used lawfare as a tool as a weapon

137
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:03,480
Speaker 2: to to ruin lives, to put tremendous pressure on people,

138
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:08,040
Speaker 2: to financially drain them, to undermine them, to malign them,

139
00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:12,920
Speaker 2: to defame them. All of that they have already done.

140
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:16,840
Speaker 2: They sent an FBI team tomorrow Lago and they went

141
00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:20,920
Speaker 2: through Malania's sock drawer. And libs want to lecture us

142
00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:25,520
Speaker 2: about James Comy, who allegedly lied under oath facing the music.

143
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:29,880
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, is there some special carve out for being

144
00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:35,960
Speaker 2: a six foot ten jerk who uses the law in

145
00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:38,280
Speaker 2: order to puff himself up and is part of his

146
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:42,400
Speaker 2: own just malignant narcissism. Is there some carve out where

147
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:45,040
Speaker 2: he doesn't have to actually face the music the way

148
00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:47,320
Speaker 2: that he has made so many others and I think

149
00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:51,960
Speaker 2: entrapped people and abuse the law, most notably General Flynn.

150
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:53,719
Speaker 2: I like to fill in these gaps too, so no

151
00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:55,840
Speaker 2: one can say, well, you just said he's abusing, and

152
00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:58,240
Speaker 2: no I like to give you the specifics to remind everybody,

153
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:01,880
Speaker 2: to remind everybody that James Comy thought it was funny

154
00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:05,679
Speaker 2: to use the Logan Act, which no serious human being

155
00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:09,440
Speaker 2: thinks anybody can or would be prosecuted under, as a

156
00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:13,679
Speaker 2: total pretext. It's like the equivalent of a swatting call.

157
00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:17,240
Speaker 2: It is a bad faith use of law enforcement to

158
00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:21,720
Speaker 2: go after the General Michael Flynn, the incoming National Security advisor.

159
00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:23,280
Speaker 2: I know it feels like that was a long time ago,

160
00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:25,680
Speaker 2: but there hasn't been Well maybe you don't feel that way,

161
00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:30,400
Speaker 2: but they'll say that, but there's been no justice for that.

162
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:36,160
Speaker 2: That ambush hasn't been punished. And James Comy thinks that

163
00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:38,880
Speaker 2: he's a clever guy for the whole thing, and he

164
00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:41,440
Speaker 2: thinks that what was that book? I think was Higher Power?

165
00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:45,400
Speaker 2: Is that right? Higher power or something like that. I'm

166
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:49,360
Speaker 2: now the real question you might ask is is James

167
00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:53,360
Speaker 2: Comy's book a more brutal read than Kamala is one

168
00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:57,000
Speaker 2: hundred and seven days. I cannot answer that question. Because

169
00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:58,880
Speaker 2: I haven't read Comy's book, but I will tell you

170
00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:03,079
Speaker 2: that is some if competition. That is, you know, Superman

171
00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:06,240
Speaker 2: versus Iron Man with the like the super suit. You know.

172
00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:10,920
Speaker 2: I mean, that is tough stuff, really really preposterous that

173
00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:13,320
Speaker 2: James Comy would think anybody would want to read his

174
00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:17,280
Speaker 2: memoir and on his book tour. But such as things are,

175
00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:19,720
Speaker 2: he is now facing the music and there's the possibility.

176
00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:23,600
Speaker 2: I think it's slim. I don't want to over promise

177
00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:25,360
Speaker 2: and under deliver. Ever on this show, I think it

178
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:28,120
Speaker 2: is slim. But here's what I will tell that he

179
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:31,640
Speaker 2: will actually be convicted because it's a it's a Northern

180
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:34,760
Speaker 2: Virginia jury. I was just saying, how much fun, how

181
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:37,680
Speaker 2: much fun DC is with no government bureacrats running around.

182
00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:41,880
Speaker 2: They all live in Arlington mostly, you know, they live

183
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,439
Speaker 2: a lot of them inside or just outside of the Beltway.

184
00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:48,800
Speaker 2: It's going to be a very favorable pool for James Comy.

185
00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:53,480
Speaker 2: But here's why I view this is so important. The

186
00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:56,120
Speaker 2: message is received, whether Comy is found guilty or not,

187
00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,080
Speaker 2: the message is received that there will at least be

188
00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:03,080
Speaker 2: an effort to hold the other side to the law

189
00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:07,200
Speaker 2: and not create a system This is really important. A

190
00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:11,160
Speaker 2: system where we are held to an extra legal standard

191
00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:16,000
Speaker 2: and they are held to a sub legal standard, or

192
00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:18,400
Speaker 2: rather they get to break the law and get away

193
00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:22,520
Speaker 2: with it. Meanwhile, they get to prosecute us Trump for

194
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:25,200
Speaker 2: not breaking the law, and we do nothing in response.

195
00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:30,440
Speaker 2: We have to at least establish that we will bring

196
00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:34,400
Speaker 2: charges against people who have been involved in this law

197
00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:38,440
Speaker 2: fair involved in using the government the deep state, however

198
00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:41,880
Speaker 2: you want to describe it, to take out people for

199
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:44,600
Speaker 2: purely political reasons. Well, if they break the law in

200
00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:47,959
Speaker 2: that process, there will be some form of accountability. And

201
00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:50,400
Speaker 2: now there is going to be I think a pretty

202
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:53,160
Speaker 2: high probability just based on the jury pool that calm me,

203
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:55,560
Speaker 2: will be found. In my mind, he'll be found not guilty.

204
00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:59,720
Speaker 2: He'll be acquitted on this. But let's see, let's see,

205
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,520
Speaker 2: it's a pretty straightforward thing. Did he lie or did

206
00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:05,640
Speaker 2: he not lie? Let's see what kind of case the process.

207
00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:08,280
Speaker 2: I know, I don't want to I don't want to

208
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:12,280
Speaker 2: prejudge anything here. Let's see what is produced in that court.

209
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:14,240
Speaker 2: You don't need to call me and say, buck, you're

210
00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:17,160
Speaker 2: already getting ahead of the cart before the horse here.

211
00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:19,960
Speaker 2: I know, but I just I like to manage our

212
00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:23,680
Speaker 2: expectations for where this is going. It's it's still a

213
00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:26,520
Speaker 2: steep climb. This is a little bit of ice skating

214
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:28,560
Speaker 2: uphill here to think that James Comey is going to

215
00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:32,319
Speaker 2: actually be convicted. But the fact that the charge has

216
00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:36,080
Speaker 2: been brought alone sends a message we are not going

217
00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:39,439
Speaker 2: to just lie down and accept a two tiered system

218
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:43,960
Speaker 2: of justice in this town, Washington, DC, or anywhere else

219
00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:47,560
Speaker 2: for that matter. And that is important. That is something

220
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:51,800
Speaker 2: that we all have to recognize as a necessary step

221
00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:56,800
Speaker 2: because otherwise it's, you know, heads they win, tails we lose.

222
00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:59,320
Speaker 2: Did I do that one right? That's always always feel

223
00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:01,480
Speaker 2: like I'm gonna get that one. It's like Bush when

224
00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:04,600
Speaker 2: he's like fool me once, can't get fooled again. You know,

225
00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:06,640
Speaker 2: it's tougher to say it, especially on a live radio

226
00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:09,360
Speaker 2: show than you think it's gonna be, you know, But

227
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:11,839
Speaker 2: that's where this is right now, my friends. That is

228
00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:15,480
Speaker 2: the situation. I was just talking before I came on

229
00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:19,320
Speaker 2: air today about how much we love our cozy earth

230
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:22,440
Speaker 2: sheets and also we've got a blanket. I mean, Carrie

231
00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:25,120
Speaker 2: is wrapped in this blanket now all the time. I

232
00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:27,520
Speaker 2: mean she is wrapped in this thing like an Eskimo.

233
00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:33,040
Speaker 2: She loves it, and Cozy Earth has fantastic products, fantastic products.

245
00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:08,240
Speaker 2: is wearing a Cozy Earth Kashmir sweater. This is kashmere.

246
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:10,440
Speaker 2: You don't have a top hat in a monocol on.

247
00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:12,880
Speaker 2: I'm a little disappointed, but its cashmere. It's very fancy.

248
00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:15,400
Speaker 2: It's very nice, actually, she said, she said, touch the

249
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:17,520
Speaker 2: softness of this, and I was like, what is this velvet?

250
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:20,520
Speaker 2: And she was like, no, it's a it's a Kashmir

251
00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:22,320

00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:57,640
Speaker 2: Welcome back into Clay and Buck. I've been warning people

263
00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:01,160
Speaker 2: for years about this comy guy, and I wish if

264
00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:04,840
Speaker 2: the president at the time had pulled me aside and

265
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:07,280
Speaker 2: asked me early on in his first term, I would

266
00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:10,960
Speaker 2: have shared all you have to know about James Comy.

267
00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:15,200
Speaker 2: You would know from the way he acted with respect

268
00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:19,160
Speaker 2: to the Martha Stewart prosecution, a prosecution that nobody in

269
00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:22,720
Speaker 2: his office but him wanted to bring a prosecution for

270
00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:26,240
Speaker 2: which there was no crime, not even any money made

271
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:29,120
Speaker 2: or lost. It was just the whole thing was absurd.

272
00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:31,760
Speaker 2: And Martha Stewart is a huge Democrat who does not

273
00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:34,080
Speaker 2: like Trump and does not like Republicans. And this is

274
00:15:34,120 --> 00:15:38,200
Speaker 2: just about what's what's fair and decent. It's not about politics.

275
00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:42,840
Speaker 2: But Komy really has always thought of himself as like

276
00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:47,400
Speaker 2: the high priest of the DOJ. So much of Komy,

277
00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:50,680
Speaker 2: I will tell you this, so much of Komy reminds

278
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:55,520
Speaker 2: me of Fauci. Fauci is like the the you know,

279
00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:59,680
Speaker 2: the the Liliputian version of Komy. They have the same

280
00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:02,800
Speaker 2: person soonality type. They pretend it's all about the cause

281
00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:06,600
Speaker 2: of the institution, it's really all about them. And they

282
00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:13,360
Speaker 2: get this uh, this solyopsism word of the day, solepsism

283
00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:16,320
Speaker 2: from all of this, And you like that one. That

284
00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:19,120
Speaker 2: producer rally likes that one. And I'm not the only

285
00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:21,120
Speaker 2: one warning you about this guy, or have been warning

286
00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:24,360
Speaker 2: about this guy for a long time. The great Rush

287
00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:30,240
Speaker 2: Limbaugh back in twenty nineteen, he saw exactly who James

288
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:34,320
Speaker 2: Comy was and also knew about his past, which we

289
00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:35,760
Speaker 2: should all be reminded of. Played two.

290
00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:39,080
Speaker 3: How many of you have heard or thought that James

291
00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:42,600
Speaker 3: call me was a lifelong Republican. I have I've always

292
00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:45,440
Speaker 3: thought that James call me was a lifelong Republican. I've

293
00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:48,200
Speaker 3: been told that James call Me as a lifelong Republican.

294
00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:51,040
Speaker 3: Turns out not to be true. Are you wearing of

295
00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:54,320
Speaker 3: James Comey used to be a Communist. In a two

296
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:58,000
Speaker 3: thousand and three interview with New York Magazine, James call

297
00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:01,840
Speaker 3: Mey said before voting for Jamie Jimmy Carter nineteen eighty,

298
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:06,000
Speaker 3: he'd been a communist. He admitted, I'd moved from communists

299
00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:09,080
Speaker 3: to whatever I am. Now now we know that John Brennan,

300
00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:14,160
Speaker 3: Obama's CIA director, was a communist, or at least had

301
00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:18,160
Speaker 3: voted for the Communist Party, But I.

302
00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:20,600
Speaker 2: Had never heard this about Komy.

303
00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:26,520
Speaker 3: Now we find out that under Obama, the CIA director

304
00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:32,320
Speaker 3: and the FBI director both had histories of not just flirtation,

305
00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:38,480
Speaker 3: but serious immersion into communism. And like the KGB always said,

306
00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:43,600
Speaker 3: no one ever leaves the KGB, nobody ever leaves this

307
00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:44,439
Speaker 3: way of thinking.

308
00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:50,399
Speaker 2: Isn't that interesting? You start to see how for some

309
00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:56,920
Speaker 2: of these individuals there was an ideological foundation of communism.

310
00:17:57,280 --> 00:17:58,680
Speaker 2: And these are people who are at the top of

311
00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:03,120
Speaker 2: the national security operat us in this country in recent years, communism,

312
00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:10,280
Speaker 2: and then they become some malleable chameleon in politics just

313
00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:13,800
Speaker 2: so they can weave their way through the bureaucracy. But

314
00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:18,360
Speaker 2: do you think they've ever really changed their collectivist foundation.

315
00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:22,520
Speaker 2: Rush didn't think that Komi had, or Brendan for that matter,

316
00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:26,159
Speaker 2: and he was right. He warned us about this, and

317
00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:29,760
Speaker 2: now perhaps there will be some accountability for the misdeeds

318
00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:31,320
Speaker 2: that were done. But we're not going to hold our

319
00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:34,040
Speaker 2: breath on Kmy. We're going to see. Look, as you know,

320
00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:36,120
Speaker 2: I've always been a big reader. I love books, that's

321
00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:38,280
Speaker 2: certainly true. I also like writing a lot, and when

322
00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:40,879
Speaker 2: I'm not on radio, I've been busy creating a weekly

Speaker 2: We're gonna have Senator Ranpaul joining us at the bottom

340
00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:37,719
Speaker 2: about the government shutdown, which I have to say for

341
00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:40,520
Speaker 2: my own reasons. Here in DC, I am loving every

342
00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:44,000
Speaker 2: minute of It's amazing. I feel like I could hop

343
00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:46,800
Speaker 2: on an electric scooter and just do a little tour

344
00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:49,120
Speaker 2: of the town and not have to stop anywhere because

345
00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:51,480
Speaker 2: there's no one on the streets. It's fabulous, you know.

346
00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:53,280
Speaker 2: I just put a little scarf on, you know, in

347
00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:55,640
Speaker 2: case it gets Chiley on the scooter and I go

348
00:19:56,040 --> 00:20:00,280
Speaker 2: Capitol Building, Georgetown, stop by the White House, High five, Steve. Look,

349
00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:02,639
Speaker 2: see how everybody's doing. That's the kind of day it

350
00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:07,040
Speaker 2: is over here. It's wonderful, wonderful. They have all the bureaucrats,

351
00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:10,720
Speaker 2: you know, jostling together, and you know, making the line

352
00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:13,359
Speaker 2: at Starbucks one hundred people long. None of that stuff.

353
00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:20,160
Speaker 2: This government shutdowns pretty nice, Pretty nice. So let's dive

354
00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:24,040
Speaker 2: into politics in California for a minute show we because

355
00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:25,719
Speaker 2: a lot of you have seen this. It's gone viral,

356
00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:28,480
Speaker 2: as you know. We have Steve Hilton on to talk

357
00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:32,880
Speaker 2: about his run for governor in that state. Gavin Newsom, Hey, everybody,

358
00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:36,399
Speaker 2: how you doing. He's turned out he is going to

359
00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:40,800
Speaker 2: run for president quite obviously, and he has to give

360
00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:45,840
Speaker 2: up his governor's mansion to whoever the next person to

361
00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:48,600
Speaker 2: win that contest is going to be. And it's looking

362
00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:51,960
Speaker 2: right now, at least on the Democrat side of things,

363
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:57,120
Speaker 2: it's looking like Katie Porter is the likeliest to win. Now,

364
00:20:57,440 --> 00:21:01,400
Speaker 2: every state has different rules about how this stuff goes. California,

365
00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:02,800
Speaker 2: as I understand it, and some of you live there,

366
00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:04,640
Speaker 2: so you're gonna know this better than I do, has

367
00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:07,600
Speaker 2: like a top two situation, so you have all these

368
00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:09,680
Speaker 2: people that are gonna be running, and then the top

369
00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:14,320
Speaker 2: two vote getters are going to be in the general

370
00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:18,919
Speaker 2: election the ballot in November of twenty twenty six. I

371
00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:21,640
Speaker 2: think that's right. If it's wrong, my team will tell

372
00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:23,080
Speaker 2: me in a moment and I'll correct it. But I

373
00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:26,440
Speaker 2: think that's basically how it goes. But Katie Porter is

374
00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:30,960
Speaker 2: getting a lot of attention she probably did not want

375
00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:34,399
Speaker 2: right now. In fact, the newsweek headline here is Katie

376
00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:39,680
Speaker 2: Porter's chances of winning California governor election suffer blow. And

377
00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:43,320
Speaker 2: let's get into why that is. She sat down with

378
00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:49,040
Speaker 2: a journalist. She sat down with a journalist and had

379
00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:51,920
Speaker 2: the exchange team, can I do this actually, Producer Mike,

380
00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:55,280
Speaker 2: Let's do a little play pause here, right, So I'm

381
00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:56,720
Speaker 2: gonna play it. I'm gonna say, all right, let's pause

382
00:21:56,760 --> 00:21:59,000
Speaker 2: for a second here because this is a long one.

383
00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:01,400
Speaker 2: It's a couple minutes long. So I want to get

384
00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:03,560
Speaker 2: in and out of this SoundBite, but I want you

385
00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:07,400
Speaker 2: to hear the whole thing, because wow, Katie Porter comes

386
00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:12,399
Speaker 2: across as a really nasty and unlikable person and unprofessional.

387
00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:14,960
Speaker 2: So let's start this off. This is a CBS interview

388
00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:19,760
Speaker 2: with Julie Watts of CBS News California. Come on, it's CBS,

389
00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:23,080
Speaker 2: and this is communist broadcasting services like this, this is

390
00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:26,199
Speaker 2: not this is home team stuff, reporter, but if you

391
00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:29,000
Speaker 2: ask her real questions, she apparently doesn't like it. This

392
00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:30,000
Speaker 2: is how it goes play it.

393
00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:32,240
Speaker 6: What do you say to the forty percent of California

394
00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:34,920
Speaker 6: voters who you'll need in order to win, who voted

395
00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:35,359
Speaker 6: for Trump?

396
00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:37,600
Speaker 7: How would I need them in order to win?

397
00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:38,040
Speaker 1: A man?

398
00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:41,120
Speaker 6: Well, unless you think you're going to get sixty percent

399
00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:43,120
Speaker 6: of the vote, you think you'll get sixty percent?

400
00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:45,360
Speaker 8: All everybody who did not vote for Trump will vote

401
00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:47,520
Speaker 8: for you. That's what you're in a general election.

402
00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:51,160
Speaker 7: Yes, if it is me versus a Republican, I think

403
00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:53,080
Speaker 7: that I will win the people who did not vote

404
00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:53,360
Speaker 7: for Trump.

405
00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:54,880
Speaker 8: What if it's you versus another Democrat?

406
00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:56,320
Speaker 7: I don't intend that to be the case.

407
00:22:57,359 --> 00:22:59,520
Speaker 8: So how do you not intend that to be the case?

408
00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:01,680
Speaker 8: Do you? Are you going to ask them not to run?

409
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:03,800
Speaker 7: You know, I'm saying I'm going to build the support.

410
00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:06,159
Speaker 7: I have the support already in terms of name recognition,

411
00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:07,960
Speaker 7: and so I'm going to do the very best I

412
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:09,960
Speaker 7: can to make sure that we get through this primary

413
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:11,040
Speaker 7: in a really strong position.

414
00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:12,080
Speaker 2: But let me be clear with you.

415
00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:15,879
Speaker 7: I represented Orange County. I represented a purple area. I

416
00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:18,040
Speaker 7: have stood on my own two feet and one Republican

417
00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:20,720
Speaker 7: votes before. That's not something every candidate in this race

418
00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:23,160
Speaker 7: can say if you're from a deep blue area, if

419
00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:26,280
Speaker 7: you're from LA or you're from Oakland, you don't have

420
00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:26,800
Speaker 7: an experience.

421
00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:28,760
Speaker 6: You just said you don't need those Trump voters, So

422
00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:30,879
Speaker 6: you asked me if I needed them to win, So

423
00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:31,280
Speaker 6: you don't.

424
00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:33,320
Speaker 7: I feel like this is unnecessarily argumentative.

425
00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:34,159
Speaker 8: What is your question?

426
00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:37,120
Speaker 2: The question is, oh, well, let's pause there for a second.

427
00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:38,800
Speaker 2: Let's pause there for a second because it's about to

428
00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:40,119
Speaker 2: get really good. Everybody. I want to keep you on

429
00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:45,600
Speaker 2: the edge of your seats. Argumentative, argumentative. I got to

430
00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:47,800
Speaker 2: tell you, as a conservative dealing with the media like

431
00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:51,760
Speaker 2: that's like a like a hiatsu massage. That's not argumentative, Like,

432
00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:55,040
Speaker 2: are you kidding me? That's she can't handle that, that's

433
00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:57,840
Speaker 2: getting her all. Oh, oh, you're just hearing the beginning

434
00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:03,040
Speaker 2: of Hurricane order unleashed. Here. Things are gonna get worse.

435
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:03,840
Speaker 2: Keep playing it.

436
00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:06,080
Speaker 6: It's the same thing I asked everybody that this is

437
00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:10,520
Speaker 6: being called the empowering voters to stop Trump's power graph.

438
00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:12,600
Speaker 8: Every other candidate has answered this question this is not

439
00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:16,719
Speaker 8: and I said, I support it. So and the question is,

440
00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:17,520
Speaker 8: what do you say to.

441
00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:20,119
Speaker 6: The forty percent of voters who voted for Trump.

442
00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:22,040
Speaker 7: Oh, I'm happy to say that. It's the do you

443
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:24,280
Speaker 7: need them to win part that I don't understand. I'm

444
00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:25,840
Speaker 7: happy to answer the question. Answer the question as you

445
00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:26,879
Speaker 7: haven't written, and I'll answer.

446
00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:29,200
Speaker 6: And we've also asked the other candidates do you think

447
00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:32,200
Speaker 6: you need any of those forty percent of California voters

448
00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:32,439
Speaker 6: to win?

449
00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:33,560
Speaker 8: And you're saying no, you don't.

450
00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:35,360
Speaker 7: No, I'm saying I'm going to try to win every

451
00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:37,800
Speaker 7: vote I can. And what I'm saying to you.

452
00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:41,280
Speaker 8: Is that, well to those voters. Okay, so you I

453
00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:41,800
Speaker 8: don't want.

454
00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:43,720
Speaker 7: To keep doing this, I'm gonna call it thank you.

455
00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:48,080
Speaker 2: Whoa, whoa, Hey, hit the pause button. Hit the pause button.

456
00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:52,679
Speaker 2: She can't handle that. What exactly is the look is?

457
00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:52,840
Speaker 3: There?

458
00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:55,160
Speaker 2: Is the reporter maybe or things getting a little lost

459
00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:59,119
Speaker 2: in translation here about the numbers. Looks she's a CBS journalist.

460
00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:01,320
Speaker 2: She's trying to you know, she could be doing like

461
00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:04,080
Speaker 2: sideline reporting for the NFL or something, and she happens

462
00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:06,600
Speaker 2: to be here with this politician who cares here she

463
00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:09,840
Speaker 2: is and she's trying to just she's just trying to

464
00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:12,719
Speaker 2: do like a decent job. This is not a gotcha.

465
00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:15,240
Speaker 2: I know gotcha every time I used to go on CNN.

466
00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:16,400
Speaker 2: It was like an ambush and I had to fight

467
00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:19,040
Speaker 2: through it. I know what gotcha is like, This is

468
00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:22,880
Speaker 2: not gotcha. This is trying to just clarify a point.

469
00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:26,000
Speaker 2: But also you can tell Katie Porter has decided Congressman

470
00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:29,440
Speaker 2: Porter has decided to really you know, sink her teeth

471
00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:35,040
Speaker 2: into this, and uh, I think just comes across as ogrish,

472
00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:37,639
Speaker 2: if you will, I use that term people like that

473
00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:42,240
Speaker 2: one online ogrish as in befitting of an ogre. It's

474
00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:45,639
Speaker 2: not nice, not nice. The way she's acting here, not nice.

475
00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:46,760
Speaker 2: Keep playing it.

476
00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:49,080
Speaker 8: You're not gonna do the interview with them?

477
00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:50,960
Speaker 7: Nope, not like this. I'm not not with seven follow

478
00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:52,640
Speaker 7: ups to every single question you ask.

479
00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:54,160
Speaker 8: Every other candidate has.

480
00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:54,840
Speaker 2: I don't care.

481
00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:56,000
Speaker 8: I don't care.

482
00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:59,119
Speaker 7: I want to have a pleasant, positive conversation, which you

483
00:25:59,119 --> 00:26:01,520
Speaker 7: asked me about every year you on this list. And

484
00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:03,560
Speaker 7: if every question you're going to make up a follow

485
00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:06,720
Speaker 7: up question, then we're never going to get there and.

486
00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:07,920
Speaker 8: We're just going to circle around.

487
00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:10,960
Speaker 7: I ask the gable had to do this before ever.

488
00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:15,960
Speaker 8: You've never had to have a conversation to end in order. Okay,

489
00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:17,199
Speaker 8: but every other candidate has done this.

490
00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:21,440
Speaker 7: What part of I'm me. I'm running for governor because

491
00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:23,920
Speaker 7: I'm a leader, So I am going to make so.

492
00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:26,760
Speaker 8: You're not going to answer questions from reporters. Okay, why

493
00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:27,560
Speaker 8: don't we go through?

494
00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:30,080
Speaker 6: I will continue to ask follow up questions because that's

495
00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:32,160
Speaker 6: my job as a journalist, but I will go through

496
00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:34,000
Speaker 6: and ask these and if you don't want to answer,

497
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:37,959
Speaker 6: you don't want to answer, so nearly every legislative.

498
00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:40,439
Speaker 7: I don't want to have an unhappy experience for you,

499
00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:42,040
Speaker 7: and I don't want this all on camera.

500
00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:44,320
Speaker 6: I don't want to have an unhappy experience with you either.

501
00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:46,520
Speaker 6: I would love to continue to ask these questions so

502
00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:50,200
Speaker 6: that we can show our viewers what every candidate feels

503
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:51,960
Speaker 6: about every one of these issues that they care about.

504
00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:59,480
Speaker 2: Okay, isn't that amazing? Also notice the manipulation there. I'm

505
00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:02,800
Speaker 2: not a psychiatrists, so I'm not going to say that

506
00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:08,439
Speaker 2: has hints of maybe borderline personality disorder or causing a

507
00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:11,240
Speaker 2: problem and then saying right away that you're not the

508
00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:13,439
Speaker 2: one who wants to cause the problem that you just

509
00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:16,679
Speaker 2: cause you know, I'm not going to diagnose this, but

510
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:18,960
Speaker 2: I can tell you this. There are people who could

511
00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:24,440
Speaker 2: strikes me as not a good moment for Katie Porter.

512
00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:26,840
Speaker 2: But let's if you want maybe you're saying, you know,

513
00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:29,600
Speaker 2: maybe she had a bad day. Uh, she wants to

514
00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:31,800
Speaker 2: be the governor of the fifth largest economy in the world.

515
00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:35,439
Speaker 2: You know, maybe we should just say look to the

516
00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:38,760
Speaker 2: record and get a sense as to what is the

517
00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:42,040
Speaker 2: real Katie Porter. Like, you know, anyone can have a

518
00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:44,200
Speaker 2: bad day, right, anyone can have a bad day. Maybe

519
00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:45,800
Speaker 2: you want to I mean, I don't particularly want to

520
00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:49,520
Speaker 2: take that position on this, but I want to bring

521
00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:54,560
Speaker 2: you this story from twenty twenty three, Representative Katie Porter

522
00:27:54,760 --> 00:28:01,320
Speaker 2: scalded ex husband's scalp with boiling potatoes. Documents I shall

523
00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:05,399
Speaker 2: read the former husband, a Representative Katie Porter said the

524
00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:09,159
Speaker 2: California Democrat frequently abused him verbally this is from The

525
00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:12,400
Speaker 2: New York Post, and through toys, books, and other objects

526
00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:16,200
Speaker 2: at him during their marriage, even pouring scalding hot mashed

527
00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:21,600
Speaker 2: potatoes on his head during a fight. According to divorce records.

528
00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:24,879
Speaker 2: Matthew Hoffman, who filed for divorce from Porter in twenty thirteen,

529
00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:28,679
Speaker 2: said a request for a restraining order dated April thirtieth

530
00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:30,920
Speaker 2: of that year that he was routinely called a bleeping

531
00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:35,840
Speaker 2: idiot and a bleeping incompetent by his rage prone spouse,

532
00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:39,120
Speaker 2: who also shattered a glass coffee pot on their kitchen

533
00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:43,200
Speaker 2: counter in March twenty twelve when she felt their house

534
00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:49,920
Speaker 2: wasn't clean enough. She's delightful, delightful. She would not have

535
00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:52,600
Speaker 2: let me have a cell phone because she said, quote,

536
00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:55,560
Speaker 2: your too bleeping dumb to operate it.

537
00:28:57,360 --> 00:28:58,040
Speaker 9: Wow.

538
00:28:58,360 --> 00:29:01,440
Speaker 2: When she gets angry, I'm quoting here. When she gets angry,

539
00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:04,880
Speaker 2: she will claw and scratch her arms and then say

540
00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:08,920
Speaker 2: to me, look what you made me do again. I

541
00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:14,160
Speaker 2: am not a psychiatrist, but google borderline personality disorder. Uh,

542
00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:18,200
Speaker 2: Google some of what's going on here, the creation of

543
00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:21,280
Speaker 2: the problem, and then the pretense ones you've created it

544
00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:24,000
Speaker 2: that you don't want drama. I'm the I'm not the

545
00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:26,880
Speaker 2: one starting the fire here. I don't want anyone starting

546
00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:29,840
Speaker 2: fires when you've thrown the gasoline all over the fire

547
00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:34,240
Speaker 2: you started. Now, I know, I know what the Democrats

548
00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:36,520
Speaker 2: would say here. They'd say, oh, but he retracted that,

549
00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:39,320
Speaker 2: and she ended up Oh you mean that his far

550
00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:43,800
Speaker 2: more powerful spouse and the very serious money interests aligned

551
00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:47,160
Speaker 2: behind her were able to get him to retract something

552
00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:49,120
Speaker 2: that he had already put it in a divorce proceeding

553
00:29:50,320 --> 00:29:54,240
Speaker 2: because they made him an offer he probably he couldn't refuse. Yeah, okay,

554
00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:58,000
Speaker 2: but that did happen. So he retracted those things. But

555
00:29:58,080 --> 00:29:59,880
Speaker 2: he said all those things in court documents and they

556
00:29:59,880 --> 00:30:02,440
Speaker 2: were on which I think is interesting. Again, I'm just

557
00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:04,240
Speaker 2: looking at the totality of evidence. Are we going to

558
00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:06,880
Speaker 2: say that Katie Porter had a bad day or were

559
00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:10,680
Speaker 2: we getting a window into this member of Congress who

560
00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:13,480
Speaker 2: wants to be the governor of California and from there

561
00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:16,000
Speaker 2: probably would see yourself as running for president. So I

562
00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:18,120
Speaker 2: think it's a pretty fair game to get into all this.

563
00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:21,520
Speaker 2: But you may say, Buck, divorce proceedings can get ugly.

564
00:30:22,120 --> 00:30:25,480
Speaker 2: I mean, who among us hasn't thrown boiling hot potatoes

565
00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:27,160
Speaker 2: at somebody in a fit of rage at some point,

566
00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:29,960
Speaker 2: Well all of you, I'm sure. But you know we're

567
00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:32,720
Speaker 2: trying to be generous here. I'm trying to take the

568
00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:39,200
Speaker 2: maximum benefit point of view for the ogrish Katie Porter,

569
00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:42,840
Speaker 2: the bullying Katie Porter here, and so that I would

570
00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:48,280
Speaker 2: then just say, well, clearly, she would have a lot

571
00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:50,360
Speaker 2: of people who would come forward who have worked with

572
00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:54,880
Speaker 2: her to speak to what an impeccable character she has.

573
00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:59,840
Speaker 2: What a kind and encouraging boss and mentor she is,

574
00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:04,640
Speaker 2: And for that, I bring you Politico Katie Porter and

575
00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:09,960
Speaker 2: the bad boss problem. Oh, hold on a second, this

576
00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:15,040
Speaker 2: isn't that at all. This is pretty bad quote. Some

577
00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:21,600
Speaker 2: former staffers have said that she is I'm trying to

578
00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:29,560
Speaker 2: find the quotes here basically deeply abusive and nasty and

579
00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:33,560
Speaker 2: prone to fits of rage and temper tantrums. And yeah,

580
00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:37,320
Speaker 2: it's abusive to staff, has a massive staff turnover problem.

581
00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:40,360
Speaker 2: Sixty five percent of her staff turned over during her

582
00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:44,120
Speaker 2: time there, and everyone basically says, at least that has

583
00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:46,120
Speaker 2: worked for her says that she's horrible and really mean.

584
00:31:47,200 --> 00:31:49,680
Speaker 2: So are we gonna put these data points together? I

585
00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:52,040
Speaker 2: think we should. I think we should. I don't think

586
00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:53,880
Speaker 2: we can do the benefit of the doubt thing anymore.

587
00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:57,960
Speaker 2: Between the scalding hot potatoes thrown at her ex the

588
00:31:58,080 --> 00:32:02,080
Speaker 2: staffers who say that she is a brutish and nasty woman,

589
00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:07,840
Speaker 2: and now this the rating of a reporter for nothing,

590
00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:11,920
Speaker 2: I mean it was. It was a nothing burger and

591
00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:14,280
Speaker 2: she was not having it. So I just think that

592
00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:18,000
Speaker 2: everybody in California should know. And my broader lesson on

593
00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:21,640
Speaker 2: this is somehow the really nasty people in politics, I mean,

594
00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:26,160
Speaker 2: the really nasty people in politics are always Democrats. I'm

595
00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:28,000
Speaker 2: not saying there aren't people on the Republican side that

596
00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:30,320
Speaker 2: can be a little slimy and you know not, but

597
00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:34,200
Speaker 2: if you're talking about somebody who's really an abusive son

598
00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:38,280
Speaker 2: of a gun situation, you know, Democrats, there's a reason

599
00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:40,400
Speaker 2: for that. I know they want to say it's a

600
00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:43,680
Speaker 2: both sides thing, but it's not a both sides thing.

601
00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:46,240
Speaker 2: And in fact, most of the Republicans that I know

602
00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:49,360
Speaker 2: on the hill, and I know many of their staffers,

603
00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:52,480
Speaker 2: their staffers all say they're fantastic people and they really

604
00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:56,640
Speaker 2: look up to them. That's very common, very common. I

605
00:32:56,640 --> 00:32:59,360
Speaker 2: don't I mean, I don't hear that. I hear stuff

606
00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:01,560
Speaker 2: about the Democrats. Oh you're like buck Well. Who else

607
00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:04,120
Speaker 2: I don't know. Maybe Amy Klobershar of a senate as

608
00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:08,680
Speaker 2: Senate fame who is famous for eating her salad with

609
00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:12,480
Speaker 2: a comb and throwing things at staffers. Yeah, true stories.

610
00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:16,880
Speaker 2: Those are the allegations, at least allegations throwing things at staffers,

611
00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:19,640
Speaker 2: eating salad with a comb. You know, do you have

612
00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:21,760
Speaker 2: any I don't know any Republicans who eat salad with

613
00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:24,440
Speaker 2: a comb and throw and throw things at their staffers.

614
00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:27,520
Speaker 2: I'm just saying I do not know of that happening,

615
00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:29,280
Speaker 2: so if you do, please call in and tell me.

616
00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:32,640
Speaker 2: All right, Look, Israel represents the only true democracy in

617
00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:34,520
Speaker 2: the Middle East. They've been a steady ally of the

618
00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:36,960
Speaker 2: US since nineteen forty eight, particularly when we needed friends

619
00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:38,760
Speaker 2: in that part of the world. Israel is also home

620
00:33:38,760 --> 00:33:41,000
Speaker 2: to the Jewish people, same people with a rich history

621
00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:44,800
Speaker 2: that has benefited Christians alike for centuries. If you're of

622
00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:46,880
Speaker 2: the Christian faith, you likely had a Bible lesson or

623
00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:49,440
Speaker 2: who that tells the story of the Jewish people, and

624
00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:51,880
Speaker 2: you read or heard the words emphasizing the care and

625
00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:54,920
Speaker 2: protection of looking after those that are Jewish, God's chosen people.

626
00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:58,320
Speaker 2: Many Christians in America are standing with Israel this month

627
00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:01,240
Speaker 2: by participating in a growing movement created by the International

628
00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:04,440
Speaker 2: Fellowship of Christians and Jews. It's called Flags of Fellowship.

629
00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:08,240
Speaker 2: This country wide effort, the Flags of Fellowship, unites churches

630
00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:11,880
Speaker 2: across America planning over one million Israeli flags across our

631
00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:14,759
Speaker 2: land show the world that Israel is not alone. To

00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:27,239
Speaker 5: You don't know what you don't know, right, but you

635
00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:30,799
Speaker 5: could on the Sunday Hang with Clay and Buck Bodjazz.

636
00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:33,200
Speaker 2: Welcome back in here to Clay and Buck. We are

637
00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:38,160
Speaker 2: joined by Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky. Senator Paul, always

638
00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:40,120
Speaker 2: appreciate you making time for us today.

639
00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:42,319
Speaker 9: No problem, Thanks for having me.

640
00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:46,279
Speaker 2: Government shutdown so far, I gotta say it's pretty nice

641
00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:48,680
Speaker 2: walking around the streets of DC. I know that's a

642
00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:52,719
Speaker 2: very basic view of things, but government seems to be

643
00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:57,120
Speaker 2: working reasonably well for a so called shutdown. What is

644
00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:01,319
Speaker 2: as as you see it, at issue today? Why have

645
00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:05,680
Speaker 2: we seen no progress in the Schumer shutdown negotiations?

646
00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:10,000
Speaker 9: Well, I think the great irony of this situation is

647
00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:13,840
Speaker 9: that every Democrat in the Senate and every Democrat versally

648
00:35:13,880 --> 00:35:16,440
Speaker 9: in the House as well, voted for these spending levels

649
00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:19,960
Speaker 9: in December of last year. So this continuing resolution has

650
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:23,040
Speaker 9: spending levels that were actually set under Biden. These are

651
00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:26,440
Speaker 9: the Biden spending levels, and every Democrat has previously voted

652
00:35:26,480 --> 00:35:29,160
Speaker 9: for them. The reason they're not voting for them now,

653
00:35:29,160 --> 00:35:32,080
Speaker 9: at least according to the Democrats is, well, we want

654
00:35:32,520 --> 00:35:38,839
Speaker 9: to renew these temporary Obamacare subsidies. Well, that's moving the goalpost,

655
00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:41,120
Speaker 9: because these people have all voted for the spending bill

656
00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:44,840
Speaker 9: before and it doesn't include the Obamacare subsidies, never has

657
00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:48,640
Speaker 9: And the reason the Obamacare subsidies are expiring is because

658
00:35:48,640 --> 00:35:51,879
Speaker 9: that's the law that the Democrats wrote. They wrote them

659
00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:54,560
Speaker 9: to be temporary because they were trying to cram a

660
00:35:54,560 --> 00:35:57,520
Speaker 9: lot of spending into a reconciliation bill and the only

661
00:35:57,520 --> 00:36:00,359
Speaker 9: way they could do it was to make things temporary. Really,

662
00:36:00,520 --> 00:36:02,799
Speaker 9: this is all on the Democrats, and eventually they will

663
00:36:02,840 --> 00:36:05,560
Speaker 9: fold and they will vote to reopen the government.

664
00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:09,480
Speaker 2: Now, why are the if you could dig into this

665
00:36:09,640 --> 00:36:14,600
Speaker 2: a bit, Senator Paul, why are these subsidies for Obamacare

666
00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:18,640
Speaker 2: both so important to Democrats and so necessary?

667
00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:22,920
Speaker 9: Well, you know, the argument with Obamacare when it started,

668
00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:25,480
Speaker 9: you know, background twenty ten, was that it was going

669
00:36:25,520 --> 00:36:29,279
Speaker 9: to keep healthcare insurance prices from going up and make

670
00:36:29,440 --> 00:36:31,520
Speaker 9: health care more affordable. It turns out, if you look

671
00:36:31,560 --> 00:36:35,279
Speaker 9: at healthcare insurance prices, they've gone up ever since. There's

672
00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:38,720
Speaker 9: been no slowdown in the increase in healthcare prices. In fact,

673
00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:42,080
Speaker 9: when you subsidize something, you're increasing the demand for it.

674
00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:46,480
Speaker 9: You actually are, in all likelihood increasing the price of things.

675
00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:51,479
Speaker 9: But they haven't been successful. These Obamacare subsidies aren't really

676
00:36:51,520 --> 00:36:55,319
Speaker 9: going for the poor. They're actually going to relatively rich

677
00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:59,520
Speaker 9: people now. And like I say, they were brought in

678
00:36:59,560 --> 00:37:03,160
Speaker 9: by the Democrats during the pandemic. They were said to be, oh, well,

679
00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:06,440
Speaker 9: people are having a tough time to the pandemic. We're

680
00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:09,759
Speaker 9: going to give them extra money. The real problem, though,

681
00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:12,040
Speaker 9: that nobody discusses around here, is there is no money

682
00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:14,719
Speaker 9: to give these people. I mean, the money literally has

683
00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:16,920
Speaker 9: to be borrowed from China or printed up by the

684
00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:21,280
Speaker 9: subtle Reserve. We're two trillion dollars short with the current

685
00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:25,479
Speaker 9: levels of welfare and warfare, frankly, and we're two dollars

686
00:37:25,560 --> 00:37:27,360
Speaker 9: short a year. Where's the money come from. It's the

687
00:37:27,400 --> 00:37:28,760
Speaker 9: best to be borrowed.

688
00:37:28,960 --> 00:37:31,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, well with gold that I think four thousand dollars

689
00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:33,520
Speaker 2: announced now. I mean, I think people are starting to

690
00:37:33,520 --> 00:37:37,560
Speaker 2: see that the printing press is very much in use unfortunately.

691
00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:41,839
Speaker 2: And I wanted to know if you could also look

692
00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:44,239
Speaker 2: into or explain to us a little bit, Senator Paul,

693
00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:49,320
Speaker 2: the argument over whether some of this funding or whatever

694
00:37:49,320 --> 00:37:53,360
Speaker 2: the portion may be, makes it to subsidize care for illegals.

695
00:37:53,360 --> 00:37:55,200
Speaker 2: You're an MD as well as a senator, so you

696
00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:58,560
Speaker 2: have a particular insight into this. What is the truth

697
00:37:58,600 --> 00:37:58,879
Speaker 2: of that.

698
00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:03,879
Speaker 9: Well, it's confusing in the sense that we do have

699
00:38:03,960 --> 00:38:06,520
Speaker 9: many laws that say welfare is not supposed to go

700
00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:09,319
Speaker 9: to illegal aliens, but we also have laws that they

701
00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:12,560
Speaker 9: illegal aliens aren't supposed to vote either, and we know

702
00:38:12,719 --> 00:38:15,960
Speaker 9: for a fact that illegal aliens are The most recent

703
00:38:16,040 --> 00:38:19,520
Speaker 9: prominent case of them voting was a guy that was

704
00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:22,400
Speaker 9: that superintendent from Des Moines who was here in the

705
00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:26,080
Speaker 9: country illegally and registered to vote and voting in Maryland

706
00:38:26,520 --> 00:38:29,200
Speaker 9: and had been for some time. So we know that

707
00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:32,439
Speaker 9: the states, particularly the Democrats states that have very lax

708
00:38:32,600 --> 00:38:36,840
Speaker 9: rules California and others, they just don't really police the

709
00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:40,360
Speaker 9: situation all. So we do know that illegal people illegally

710
00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:42,640
Speaker 9: in the country are voting. We also know that they're

711
00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:46,920
Speaker 9: receiving healthcare as well. So in legislation then previously passed

712
00:38:46,920 --> 00:38:50,880
Speaker 9: by Republicans, language was explicitly put in to say it

713
00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:54,560
Speaker 9: cannot and should not happen, and the Democrats are trying

714
00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:57,600
Speaker 9: to repeal that language now and try to make it

715
00:38:57,640 --> 00:39:00,279
Speaker 9: such that states could make the decision to get of

716
00:39:00,640 --> 00:39:04,960
Speaker 9: welfare and you know, voting privileges to illegal aliens.

717
00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:07,719
Speaker 2: Senator Paul, this isn't the first. I think this is

718
00:39:07,760 --> 00:39:10,280
Speaker 2: the eleventh shutdown, right, but this isn't your first rodeo

719
00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:14,439
Speaker 2: with this. And I think in the past what has

720
00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:17,640
Speaker 2: been at least a narrative the media pounds, whether it's

721
00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:20,239
Speaker 2: really fair or true or not, is Oh, the Republicans

722
00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:22,960
Speaker 2: are being blamed. This is going to hurt Republicans politically.

723
00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:25,880
Speaker 2: I'm certainly not seeing that. And I don't think whatever

724
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:28,400
Speaker 2: data that can be trusted on this, to the degree

725
00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:32,480
Speaker 2: can be trusted, shows that. What is the as you

726
00:39:32,520 --> 00:39:35,600
Speaker 2: see it for the Democrats I'll speak to specifically if

727
00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:37,720
Speaker 2: you can speak to it, maybe on just the Senate side.

728
00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:42,080
Speaker 2: What is their calculation here? Why have they decided that

729
00:39:42,120 --> 00:39:43,960
Speaker 2: this is the hill they want to fight on.

730
00:39:45,360 --> 00:39:49,400
Speaker 9: I think they're miscalculated. They also, I think the Republicans

731
00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:52,279
Speaker 9: have not hit them hard enough yet. I mean the Republicans,

732
00:39:52,360 --> 00:39:55,400
Speaker 9: I'm about the only one I hear reminding people that

733
00:39:55,440 --> 00:39:58,200
Speaker 9: the Democrats all voted to these spending levels nine months ago.

734
00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:02,279
Speaker 9: They're the exact same spend levels. The one reason Republicans

735
00:40:02,320 --> 00:40:05,040
Speaker 9: don't bring this up is Republicans used to be critical

736
00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:07,799
Speaker 9: of the Biden spending levels, but now the Republicans are

737
00:40:07,800 --> 00:40:11,399
Speaker 9: all voting for the spending levels. That's why I'm really

738
00:40:11,440 --> 00:40:14,960
Speaker 9: the only Republican voting against not only the Democrats spending levels,

739
00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:18,920
Speaker 9: but voting against the Republican levels because they incurred a

740
00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:22,200
Speaker 9: deficit this year of about two trillion and are projected

741
00:40:22,239 --> 00:40:24,920
Speaker 9: to incur a deesit next year of about two point

742
00:40:24,960 --> 00:40:28,040
Speaker 9: one trillion. So I think both parties are terrible in

743
00:40:28,080 --> 00:40:30,759
Speaker 9: the deficit. I'm voting against both the Republican and the

744
00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:34,160
Speaker 9: Democrat plan because the one thing that is bipartisan up

745
00:40:34,160 --> 00:40:35,560
Speaker 9: here is spending money we don't have.

746
00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:38,759
Speaker 2: We're going to be at forty trillion then in this

747
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:42,080
Speaker 2: debt really soon. And you know, Elon Musk came in

748
00:40:42,120 --> 00:40:44,840
Speaker 2: with DOGE, and there seemed to be this moment in time,

749
00:40:45,760 --> 00:40:49,239
Speaker 2: Senator where there was at least the beginnings of a

750
00:40:49,320 --> 00:40:52,600
Speaker 2: willingness to do something about this. It does not look

751
00:40:52,680 --> 00:40:56,439
Speaker 2: like that has really to come to fruition. And maybe

752
00:40:56,440 --> 00:40:59,279
Speaker 2: that's putting it too gently that we're even trying to

753
00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:02,680
Speaker 2: turn the spending curve around do you think that there

754
00:41:02,719 --> 00:41:04,840
Speaker 2: will be I know the White House has spoken about this,

755
00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:10,640
Speaker 2: some substantial trimming of federal employees that will occur during

756
00:41:10,680 --> 00:41:12,080
Speaker 2: the shutdown. How does that work?

757
00:41:13,280 --> 00:41:15,120
Speaker 9: We know those did a lot of good things. I

758
00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:18,000
Speaker 9: was a big supporter Elon Musk and the things he

759
00:41:18,040 --> 00:41:21,680
Speaker 9: brought to government. We did end up voting on two

760
00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:25,200
Speaker 9: recision packages or one, but then they did one as

761
00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:28,440
Speaker 9: a pocket recision, and so about twelve billion and four

762
00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:31,799
Speaker 9: and aid was reduced. You know, I've been championing reductions

763
00:41:31,840 --> 00:41:35,480
Speaker 9: in foreign aid for a decade here and introduced over

764
00:41:35,560 --> 00:41:37,239
Speaker 9: thirty five bills to do it. This is the first

765
00:41:37,239 --> 00:41:40,160
Speaker 9: time we've done it since I'm here. But the problem

766
00:41:40,239 --> 00:41:44,000
Speaker 9: is the Continuing Resolution that Republicans have put forward spends

767
00:41:44,160 --> 00:41:47,359
Speaker 9: at the currently appropriated levels for four and aid that

768
00:41:47,440 --> 00:41:50,920
Speaker 9: doesn't include the twelve billion dollars in cuts. So basically,

769
00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:54,120
Speaker 9: if they passed the continuing Resolution that Republicans want everybody

770
00:41:54,120 --> 00:41:56,239
Speaker 9: to vote for now, it'll let the four and aid

771
00:41:56,239 --> 00:41:57,960
Speaker 9: back in it. And so if you want to get

772
00:41:58,040 --> 00:41:59,520
Speaker 9: rid of four and eight again, we will have to

773
00:41:59,520 --> 00:42:02,840
Speaker 9: do the same thing again next year. So taking away

774
00:42:02,840 --> 00:42:05,799
Speaker 9: the twelve billion that didn't become the new baseline. It's

775
00:42:05,840 --> 00:42:08,680
Speaker 9: not a lower baseline for four and eight. They're going

776
00:42:08,719 --> 00:42:11,279
Speaker 9: back to the original one with this continuing resolution. So

777
00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:13,680
Speaker 9: another reason not to be too excited about what the

778
00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:16,319
Speaker 9: Republicans have put forward is that we're going to start

779
00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:19,400
Speaker 9: all over again with the things that does put forward

780
00:42:19,440 --> 00:42:21,399
Speaker 9: and the recision packages. We have to do it again

781
00:42:21,480 --> 00:42:21,919
Speaker 9: next year.

782
00:42:22,280 --> 00:42:25,920
Speaker 2: Do you think there's any realistic scenario where there's a

783
00:42:25,960 --> 00:42:29,080
Speaker 2: willingness on the Republican side to make what has to

784
00:42:29,160 --> 00:42:32,880
Speaker 2: happen for real cuts to be made. I mean, I

785
00:42:32,880 --> 00:42:35,400
Speaker 2: feel like we've been talking about this, you have, I

786
00:42:35,520 --> 00:42:38,880
Speaker 2: have a lot of everybody listening now talking about this,

787
00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:41,080
Speaker 2: going back to the origins of the Tea Party. So

788
00:42:41,200 --> 00:42:44,799
Speaker 2: this is looking like what fifteen years of When are

789
00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:46,279
Speaker 2: we going to make cuts? The debt is too high?

790
00:42:46,320 --> 00:42:48,560
Speaker 2: The debt is too high. We just discussed that it's

791
00:42:48,600 --> 00:42:51,799
Speaker 2: going to be at forty trillion dollars. When do we

792
00:42:51,880 --> 00:42:53,840
Speaker 2: decide to do something about this or is it just

793
00:42:53,880 --> 00:42:56,719
Speaker 2: a waste of discussion at this point because we haven't

794
00:42:56,760 --> 00:43:00,279
Speaker 2: suffered the economic fallout from our profligate spending, is going

795
00:43:00,320 --> 00:43:01,160
Speaker 2: to do anything about it?

796
00:43:02,120 --> 00:43:04,640
Speaker 9: Well, the lay of the land is this, there are

797
00:43:04,680 --> 00:43:07,719
Speaker 9: no Democrats that will vote to cut one penny of

798
00:43:07,840 --> 00:43:11,879
Speaker 9: one dollar of federal spending. On the Republican side, there's

799
00:43:11,920 --> 00:43:14,680
Speaker 9: a lot of lip service. But when I presented my

800
00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:18,239
Speaker 9: Penny Plan budget, which would balance over five years. I

801
00:43:18,280 --> 00:43:21,680
Speaker 9: did this two weeks ago, thirty six Republicans supported it.

802
00:43:22,040 --> 00:43:24,080
Speaker 9: Now that's the high water mark. That's the most I've

803
00:43:24,120 --> 00:43:26,800
Speaker 9: gotten before. But it also means that I think about

804
00:43:26,800 --> 00:43:32,520
Speaker 9: sixteen Republicans do not support it. These sixteen Republicans often

805
00:43:32,560 --> 00:43:36,080
Speaker 9: are the leaders of the spending committees, the appropriations committees,

806
00:43:36,360 --> 00:43:38,680
Speaker 9: and so there isn't a desire among them really to

807
00:43:38,719 --> 00:43:43,239
Speaker 9: cut spending. And so until we have a Republican majority

808
00:43:43,360 --> 00:43:46,279
Speaker 9: and a majority of those Republicans are willing to cut,

809
00:43:46,320 --> 00:43:50,080
Speaker 9: we don't get anywhere. It also doesn't help when people say, well,

810
00:43:50,080 --> 00:43:53,000
Speaker 9: we're not going to look at Social Security or Medicare

811
00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:55,759
Speaker 9: and Medicaid. We'll do it sometime in two or three

812
00:43:55,840 --> 00:43:58,880
Speaker 9: years from now. We'll make the date in the future.

813
00:43:59,239 --> 00:44:01,960
Speaker 9: All of these things, when you take them off limits,

814
00:44:01,960 --> 00:44:04,880
Speaker 9: and you don't do anything to food stamps, if you

815
00:44:04,920 --> 00:44:07,719
Speaker 9: take all of these entitlements off the table, you really

816
00:44:07,760 --> 00:44:10,400
Speaker 9: need there isn't enough waste in TRAUD to cut to

817
00:44:10,440 --> 00:44:11,560
Speaker 9: actually balance the budget.

818
00:44:12,280 --> 00:44:14,040
Speaker 2: Well, what do we have to do? I mean, is

819
00:44:14,080 --> 00:44:16,879
Speaker 2: this turning into the entitlements discussion again, which nobody wants

820
00:44:16,920 --> 00:44:17,279
Speaker 2: to touch.

821
00:44:17,320 --> 00:44:22,279
Speaker 9: And it's about elections. You need more hardcore people. I

822
00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:24,719
Speaker 9: think the people out there, you know that I meet

823
00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:27,360
Speaker 9: as I travel a country, they are ready to cut spending.

824
00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:30,080
Speaker 9: They are ready for more significant cuts, and they're ready

825
00:44:30,080 --> 00:44:32,839
Speaker 9: for somebody who'd introduce a balanced budget. So I think

826
00:44:32,880 --> 00:44:37,400
Speaker 9: if my penny planned budget were surveyed among the public,

827
00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:39,920
Speaker 9: among the Republican public, I think you'd get ninety percent

828
00:44:39,960 --> 00:44:42,160
Speaker 9: of the vote, you know. But up here I'm getting

829
00:44:42,160 --> 00:44:45,520
Speaker 9: about sixty percent of the Republicans for it. So really,

830
00:44:46,400 --> 00:44:48,879
Speaker 9: the Republicans up here are all getting the message. They

831
00:44:48,880 --> 00:44:51,040
Speaker 9: need to get the message that the debt is a

832
00:44:51,040 --> 00:44:53,360
Speaker 9: real problem and it's time to start cutting spending. But

833
00:44:53,719 --> 00:44:55,520
Speaker 9: a lot of them haven't got that message yet.

834
00:44:55,840 --> 00:44:58,120
Speaker 2: How long do you think this shutdown is going to last?

835
00:44:58,160 --> 00:45:00,520
Speaker 2: And is it a big deal to you? Whether it

836
00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:02,600
Speaker 2: goes for another day or another two weeks, does it

837
00:45:02,680 --> 00:45:06,720
Speaker 2: really make much difference? How do you see that The rumor.

838
00:45:06,440 --> 00:45:09,440
Speaker 9: Is that the Democrats have a left wing socialist rally

839
00:45:09,440 --> 00:45:12,920
Speaker 9: in DC this weekend, and they're afraid of their left wing,

840
00:45:13,080 --> 00:45:16,000
Speaker 9: they're afraid of the socialists, and so they have to

841
00:45:16,040 --> 00:45:19,160
Speaker 9: show they're putting up a fight for the Obama the

842
00:45:19,160 --> 00:45:22,840
Speaker 9: free stuff, the Obamacare free subsidies. So the rumor is

843
00:45:22,880 --> 00:45:24,719
Speaker 9: they will fight through the weekend and then give in.

844
00:45:24,840 --> 00:45:28,040
Speaker 9: Next week, they'll give in because there'll be some sort

845
00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:33,080
Speaker 9: of public public promise that will negotiate on the subsidies.

846
00:45:33,400 --> 00:45:37,640
Speaker 9: And frankly, there probably are fifteen Republicans that will vote

847
00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:41,200
Speaker 9: to increase or keep the Obamacare subsidies. They don't care

848
00:45:41,239 --> 00:45:43,160
Speaker 9: that it has to be borrowed, they don't care that

849
00:45:43,200 --> 00:45:46,040
Speaker 9: it's more big government. So what will happen is all

850
00:45:46,080 --> 00:45:49,120
Speaker 9: the Democrats will be for that fifteen or twenty Republicans

851
00:45:49,120 --> 00:45:52,719
Speaker 9: will vote with them, and big government always wins. But

852
00:45:53,640 --> 00:45:56,080
Speaker 9: I think the public's getting increasingly frustrated with it. So

853
00:45:56,080 --> 00:45:58,960
Speaker 9: there's going to be a time at which the public

854
00:45:59,040 --> 00:46:01,680
Speaker 9: is going to say, let's you know, let's throw some

855
00:46:01,760 --> 00:46:02,520
Speaker 9: of the bums out.

856
00:46:03,640 --> 00:46:07,000
Speaker 2: Why do we need subsidies if Obamacare makes healthcare cheaper,

857
00:46:07,040 --> 00:46:09,080
Speaker 2: that seems to be a conundrum. Center.

858
00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:12,480
Speaker 9: Yeah, one of the things we could do, and I've

859
00:46:12,520 --> 00:46:15,680
Speaker 9: proposed this for years now, I proposed that we let

860
00:46:15,719 --> 00:46:20,399
Speaker 9: people consumers, people who buy health insurance, let them bargain collectively.

861
00:46:20,960 --> 00:46:24,360
Speaker 9: What I mean by that is, if you belong to Costco,

862
00:46:24,800 --> 00:46:28,080
Speaker 9: there are forty four million members of Costco. If Costco

863
00:46:28,160 --> 00:46:30,640
Speaker 9: were to buy your insurance for you, my guess is

864
00:46:30,680 --> 00:46:33,359
Speaker 9: Costco can get a better price than you can individually.

865
00:46:33,640 --> 00:46:35,960
Speaker 2: If my wife could buy her insurance from Costco, by

866
00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:38,920
Speaker 2: the way, it would have happened yesterday if she loves Costco.

867
00:46:39,000 --> 00:46:39,640
Speaker 2: So keep going.

868
00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:43,920
Speaker 9: And the rule that's keeping us from doing this is

869
00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:46,840
Speaker 9: a federal rule that says you can buy insurance with

870
00:46:46,920 --> 00:46:48,840
Speaker 9: a group if you all have to be in the

871
00:46:48,920 --> 00:46:53,160
Speaker 9: same employment. You have to be ditch stickers or carpenters

872
00:46:53,280 --> 00:46:56,520
Speaker 9: or welders. You can buy your insurance together, but you

873
00:46:56,640 --> 00:46:59,719
Speaker 9: can't be in multiple different employment, which is a really

874
00:46:59,760 --> 00:47:05,239
Speaker 9: dumb rule. And last Trump administration, I got him to

875
00:47:05,280 --> 00:47:08,640
Speaker 9: do an executive order. It was challenged in court. But

876
00:47:08,680 --> 00:47:10,640
Speaker 9: I have a bill that would do this. It would

877
00:47:10,719 --> 00:47:13,279
Speaker 9: change what's called the Arissa law, and it would let

878
00:47:13,320 --> 00:47:16,319
Speaker 9: anybody wants to join any group by insurance. And then

879
00:47:16,360 --> 00:47:18,279
Speaker 9: what you'd have is you'd have a head of this

880
00:47:18,880 --> 00:47:21,840
Speaker 9: cost codes health insurance buying would sit down with a

881
00:47:21,920 --> 00:47:24,960
Speaker 9: head of the big insurance companies and you'd really get

882
00:47:24,960 --> 00:47:27,879
Speaker 9: a much better price. And so that's the one thing

883
00:47:27,920 --> 00:47:30,719
Speaker 9: you could do that is a market phenomenon. It's a

884
00:47:30,760 --> 00:47:33,520
Speaker 9: way of injecting the market that actually would bring down

885
00:47:33,520 --> 00:47:35,239
Speaker 9: health care costs.

886
00:47:35,280 --> 00:47:37,839
Speaker 2: Senator rand Paul always appreciate you, sir, Thanks for making

887
00:47:37,880 --> 00:47:39,160
Speaker 2: the stop today with us.

888
00:47:39,760 --> 00:47:40,560
Speaker 9: Thanks for having me.

889
00:47:42,000 --> 00:47:44,120
Speaker 2: It was a time when dinner was more than just

890
00:47:44,160 --> 00:47:46,400
Speaker 2: a meal. It was the hour every day when family

891
00:47:46,440 --> 00:47:47,920
Speaker 2: came together. Actually, you know what I'm gonna tell you

892
00:47:47,960 --> 00:47:51,440
Speaker 2: something right now. There was the Jesuit headmaster of my

893
00:47:51,520 --> 00:47:55,479
Speaker 2: high school when my parents did the first parent teacher day.

894
00:47:55,840 --> 00:47:58,239
Speaker 2: He sat all the parents together in the auditorium and

895
00:47:58,280 --> 00:47:59,879
Speaker 2: he said, you know, one of the most important things

896
00:48:00,000 --> 00:48:02,560
Speaker 2: you can do with your kids is have dinner together.

897
00:48:03,280 --> 00:48:05,360
Speaker 2: True story. This is a guy who's been an educator

898
00:48:05,360 --> 00:48:08,680
Speaker 2: for like forty years and very very smart guy. He said,

899
00:48:08,680 --> 00:48:09,640
Speaker 2: one of the most important things.

900
00:48:09,640 --> 00:48:09,799
Speaker 6: Now.

901
00:48:09,880 --> 00:48:12,279
Speaker 2: I know people were travel busy, but the point is

902
00:48:12,360 --> 00:48:15,160
Speaker 2: when you can, you should do it. And Good Ranchers

903
00:48:15,160 --> 00:48:18,919
Speaker 2: certainly believes in that. Good Ranchers is calling Americans back

904
00:48:18,960 --> 00:48:22,120
Speaker 2: to the table from now through Thanksgiving. Good Ranchers is

905
00:48:22,200 --> 00:48:25,360
Speaker 2: encouraging families to sit down and share a meal every Thursday.

906
00:48:25,400 --> 00:48:27,720
Speaker 2: Doesn't have to be fancy, just has to be together.

907
00:48:28,080 --> 00:48:30,319
Speaker 2: And here's the fun part. Every week, one lucky winner

908
00:48:30,400 --> 00:48:32,839
Speaker 2: will win a free Thanksgiving ham for just sharing a

909
00:48:32,840 --> 00:48:36,240
Speaker 2: photo of their gathering on their Instagram story and tagging

910
00:48:36,560 --> 00:48:39,600
Speaker 2: at Good Ranchers and using the hashtag back to the Table.

00:48:58,440 --> 00:49:00,600
Speaker 2: We had Good Ranchers filats. I think it was boned

919

Speaker 2: in New York strip or maybe it was boned in RIBBEI.

920
