The 16 00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:59,120 Speaker 1: primary in California is getting closer and closer. Steve Hilton 17 00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:03,280 Speaker 1: Republican can that they're the top two advance regardless of party. 18 00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:06,520 Speaker 1: We will discuss all of that and what is a 19 00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 1: free for all absolute Donnybrook that has broken out in California. 20 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:12,679 Speaker 1: What is the latest there on who might be the 21 00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:16,240 Speaker 1: next governor to replace Gavin Newsom. But Buck, I think 22 00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:21,240 Speaker 1: we began where we basically ended yesterday's show with the 23 00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:24,840 Speaker 1: news coming of it officially, as we told you it 24 00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:28,520 Speaker 1: was likely to be having been yet another terror attack. 25 00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:33,280 Speaker 1: Two different terror attacks happening yesterday. One in Virginia at 26 00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:36,160 Speaker 1: Old Dominion. We'll get into some of the details there. 27 00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:43,240 Speaker 1: Brave Rozzi students were able to disarm and kill the 28 00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:48,520 Speaker 1: would be terrorists with their bare hands, and that is 29 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:52,640 Speaker 1: pretty remarkable. We will talk about it. One loss of 30 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:55,200 Speaker 1: life there. We will certainly honor that loss of life 31 00:01:55,240 --> 00:02:01,880 Speaker 1: as well. In West Bloomfield, Michigan, outside of Detroit, a 32 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 1: clear attempted terror attack, A good guy with a gun 33 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:08,760 Speaker 1: ended it and took and killed the life of the 34 00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:13,440 Speaker 1: would be terrorist. But coming on the heels of Austin, 35 00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:18,160 Speaker 1: Texas wear a guy in an Iran shirt and a 36 00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:21,600 Speaker 1: pro Islam sweatshirt on top of that killed two innocent 37 00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:26,200 Speaker 1: people and wounded several others. You then have the situation 38 00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:30,280 Speaker 1: in New York City where two would be Isis sympathizers 39 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 1: tried to throw IEDs outside of Gracie Mansion in New 40 00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 1: York City, which fortunately did not go off. And now 41 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:42,320 Speaker 1: we are sitting here with Austin, Texas, New York City, 42 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:47,520 Speaker 1: Old Dominion University in Virginia, and just outside of Detroit 43 00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:54,080 Speaker 1: in Michigan, four different Muslim fundamentalist motivated terror attacks in 44 00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:57,200 Speaker 1: the space of about two weeks. It feels unlikely to 45 00:02:57,240 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 1: me that this is the end of it. Buck, and 46 00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:05,839 Speaker 1: you joined the CIA some time ago, specifically to help 47 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:08,280 Speaker 1: catch the bad guys after nine to eleven, so you 48 00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:11,880 Speaker 1: are particularly well versed in this. What is your reaction 49 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 1: now that we have what we suggested was likely to 50 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:17,359 Speaker 1: be the case, but now have complete confirmation that all 51 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 1: four of these attacks have the same motive in place 52 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:24,720 Speaker 1: as the war in Iran continues, What would CIA analyst 53 00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:28,919 Speaker 1: Buck Sexton be doing this morning if he was in Langley. Well, 54 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:31,320 Speaker 1: I think we can count on the New York Times, 55 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:35,240 Speaker 1: the Washington Posts, CNN and others to remind us that 56 00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:38,880 Speaker 1: while all the terrorist attacks that are actually happening are 57 00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:43,280 Speaker 1: Islamic radicals, the real threat of terrorism in this country 58 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 1: remains white supremacy. That's the real thing, which is was 59 00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 1: the focal point of Biden's presidency was arguing the biggest 60 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 1: danger that we all face for those of you who 61 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:59,480 Speaker 1: have forgotten. He constantly gave us multi years of that argument. 62 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:04,520 Speaker 3: And I just think that we're one Islamic ji hottist 63 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 3: or I guess that's kind of repetitive, because all jihatis 64 00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 3: are Islamic. But one jie hottest terror attack away from 65 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 3: some guy instead of yelling a lah walk bar before 66 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:16,960 Speaker 3: he hits the plunger on the suicide vest, maybe he'll 67 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:21,280 Speaker 3: scream out the real terrorist threat is white supremacy kaboom. 68 00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:25,039 Speaker 3: I just wonder at what point the Democrats will have 69 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:29,800 Speaker 3: to reassess reassess the big white supremacist threat. By the way, 70 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 3: per capita is also something that tends to challenge the 71 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:36,080 Speaker 3: left and Democrats tremendously. They have no understanding of this whatsoever. 72 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:41,760 Speaker 3: They compare the overall threat of Islamic terrorism and the 73 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 3: overall threat of white supremacist terrorism in this country. 74 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:48,120 Speaker 2: They also always leave out there. 75 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 3: Are five million, six million Muslims in the country, maybe 76 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:54,800 Speaker 3: seven million, something like that. I didn't even know how 77 00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:57,839 Speaker 3: many white people there are, one hundred and fifty million, 78 00:04:57,960 --> 00:04:59,119 Speaker 3: one hundred and eighty million. 79 00:04:59,200 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 2: I don't even know. 80 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:02,680 Speaker 3: So the fact that you're even having a conversation about 81 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:05,280 Speaker 3: where is the real threat of And I just want 82 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:07,640 Speaker 3: to be very clear, there are Jihadis who are white. 83 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 3: It's actually not about race at all. But the Democrats 84 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 3: don't understand that. They have no you know, remember the 85 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:13,840 Speaker 3: guy who's captured, who's fighting for the Taliban, like that 86 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:14,560 Speaker 3: can happen too. 87 00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:16,680 Speaker 2: Islam is an ideology. It's not a skin color. It's 88 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:17,200 Speaker 2: not a race. 89 00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:20,000 Speaker 3: They always try to conflate those things because they know 90 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:22,200 Speaker 3: that if they can make it about racism, well that 91 00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 3: everyone's oh my gosh, it's not racism, it's about an ideology. 92 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:26,880 Speaker 2: Okay, No one's sitting here saying, you know. 93 00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:28,680 Speaker 3: What the real threat of tourism is right now, all 94 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:30,960 Speaker 3: the Buddhists in America, Oh my gosh, I'm so scared 95 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:32,840 Speaker 3: of them. Has nothing to do with skin color, has 96 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:35,520 Speaker 3: to do with ideology. And this is exactly what you 97 00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:40,000 Speaker 3: would expect after Remember, it's not just American strikes on Iran, 98 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 3: it is American Israeli strikes, American slash and Israeli strikes 99 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:48,279 Speaker 3: on Iran. And so the fact that Israel is just 100 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:51,920 Speaker 3: blowing up Irani and stuff left and right too, that 101 00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:57,000 Speaker 3: really sets off the Jihati community. And looking at the 102 00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:01,159 Speaker 3: Iran situation, Klay today. I know Hexath talked about it. 103 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:02,000 Speaker 3: We have some more. 104 00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:05,320 Speaker 2: Well, you know what here, let's have here's secretary war. 105 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 3: This cut one the not so supreme leader, he says 106 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:11,919 Speaker 3: of mouch taba little mo as Clay calls him, this 107 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:12,799 Speaker 3: is cut one player. 108 00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:16,600 Speaker 4: Iran's leadership is in no better shape. Desperate and hiding. 109 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:20,240 Speaker 4: They've gone underground, cowering. That's what rats do we know? 110 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:24,080 Speaker 4: The new so called not so supreme leader is wounded 111 00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 4: and likely disfigured. He put our statement yesterday a weak 112 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:30,160 Speaker 4: one actually, but there was no voice and there was 113 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:30,760 Speaker 4: no video. 114 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:32,719 Speaker 2: It was a written statement. 115 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 4: He called for unity. Apparently killing tens of thousands of 116 00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 4: protesters is his kind of unity. Iran has plenty of 117 00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:40,240 Speaker 4: cameras and plenty. 118 00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:40,919 Speaker 5: Of voice recorders. 119 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:43,480 Speaker 2: Why a written statement, I think you know why. 120 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:47,320 Speaker 4: His father dead, he's scared, he's injured, he's on the run, 121 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:48,800 Speaker 4: and he lacks legitimacy. 122 00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 2: It's a mess for them. 123 00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 4: Who's in charge Iran may not even know. 124 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 3: Now this is on the good side of things, Clay, 125 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:03,000 Speaker 3: that we're just there's no military CounterPunch from Iran whatsoever. 126 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 3: The concerning side of this or the side of this, 127 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:10,000 Speaker 3: I think everybody needs to understand as well. The Iranians, 128 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:12,800 Speaker 3: he said this, the Iranian leadership. Now they're fully hiding 129 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:18,080 Speaker 3: under in bunkers and they're not meeting in any kind 130 00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:22,400 Speaker 3: of consolidated place, and they're just gonna ride this thing out, 131 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:25,560 Speaker 3: and there's no opposition taking to the streets. So the 132 00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 3: regime is not changing, everyone. The regime is not changing. 133 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 3: We just have a defanged, temporarily Iranian regime. Maybe they'll 134 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 3: have a different approach to the next round of negotiations, 135 00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 3: but I do not see regime change happening here now. 136 00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 3: Some of you will be, I think, happy with that 137 00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 3: because it also means no US boots on the ground 138 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:43,040 Speaker 3: and a limited mission. 139 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:47,240 Speaker 1: Clay I read this morning getting ready for the show 140 00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:49,920 Speaker 1: a couple of different angles that I thought were super 141 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:53,200 Speaker 1: interesting that we could dive into a little bit later 142 00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:57,120 Speaker 1: in the program. One David Boyce, who is probably the 143 00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:02,040 Speaker 1: foremost trial attorney, who is a Democrat in terms of 144 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:06,360 Speaker 1: intellectual theft and success in the country, whatever you think 145 00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:09,440 Speaker 1: about his politics, wrote a great editorial in The Wall 146 00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 1: Street Journal saying Democrats need to stop reflexively being opposed 147 00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 1: to President Trump, that it's actually a really good thing 148 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 1: that we went into Iran and he lays out a 149 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 1: very strong argument. I thought, and and I was impressed 150 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:25,960 Speaker 1: that he did it. Did you did you see this? 151 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:28,440 Speaker 1: Because I do think it's a little bit of an interesting, 152 00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 1: interesting shift. 153 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:33,040 Speaker 3: You don't think you have more respect for Boys because 154 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:36,520 Speaker 3: of his lawyer success than I tend to give in 155 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:40,719 Speaker 3: that he served as a board member and council for Thearanos, 156 00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:44,560 Speaker 3: the fraudulent blood testing company, and basically. 157 00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:47,000 Speaker 2: Threatened to uh. 158 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:48,960 Speaker 3: Go after Wall Street Journal reporters who were trying to 159 00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:52,400 Speaker 3: unearth that Theronos was a giant fraud. So he got 160 00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:54,319 Speaker 3: taken in by that whole thing, I guess. 161 00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:57,920 Speaker 1: But everybody did it seems if you go read that book, 162 00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:00,000 Speaker 1: Bad Blood, it's one of the best books that's been 163 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,160 Speaker 1: written in a long But remember, Boys is like the 164 00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 1: bad guy who shows up in the Wall Street Journal's 165 00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:07,199 Speaker 1: offices and is like, everything we've done, everything their nose 166 00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:08,080 Speaker 1: did is on the up and up. 167 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:10,600 Speaker 3: We're going to go after you.

Uh, Laura 177 00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:37,760 Speaker 1: and I have made a big donation to Vanderbilt Law 178 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:42,800 Speaker 1: School that is predicated on the idea that every different perspective, 179 00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:46,000 Speaker 1: because a lot of conservative perspectives are ridiculed in the 180 00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:50,080 Speaker 1: law right now, should be taught in law school, and 181 00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:53,760 Speaker 1: that lots of people who are military should have the 182 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:55,920 Speaker 1: ability when they finished their service to. 183 00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 2: Go get a law degree. 184 00:09:57,920 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 1: So we're putting our money where our mouth is on 185 00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 1: this so that we have zealous advocacy. So putting aside 186 00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:05,640 Speaker 1: that argument, here's something I think that is interesting that 187 00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:09,160 Speaker 1: is starting to be floated as well, the idea that 188 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:14,400 Speaker 1: little Mo the that is the son of obviously the 189 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:19,040 Speaker 1: Ayatola who was killed, that actually we are negotiating with 190 00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:22,960 Speaker 1: different elements of Iran that are more moderate. 191 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:24,640 Speaker 2: I'm curious if you would buy this. 192 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:28,400 Speaker 1: And inside of Iran they are using this guy who 193 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:30,520 Speaker 1: may not even be able to speak based on the 194 00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,400 Speaker 1: significant injuries that have occurred to him, and Hegseth laid 195 00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:35,880 Speaker 1: out they didn't put a video, they didn't even have 196 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:41,319 Speaker 1: audio of his statement that they released yesterday that they 197 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:44,319 Speaker 1: are using him as a figurehead to make it seem 198 00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:49,040 Speaker 1: like the revolutionary elements of Iran are still in a 199 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 1: position of strength, but that in reality there are backchannel 200 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:56,920 Speaker 1: negotiations going on and we might be setting up some 201 00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 1: form of relationship there. Do you buy it to see? 202 00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:04,000 Speaker 1: I analyst bock by this guy's son being the figurehead 203 00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:07,280 Speaker 1: who's incapable of communication, and very few people know it, 204 00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:10,480 Speaker 1: and there are other individuals who now have risen to 205 00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:13,480 Speaker 1: power that are interacting with the US. That is one 206 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:16,240 Speaker 1: theory that is out there. I hope that's true. 207 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:17,959 Speaker 3: I would bet a large sum of money that ends 208 00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:21,679 Speaker 3: up not being the case. I think unfortunately, we've done 209 00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 3: everything that can be done from the sky, and there's 210 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 3: a hard red line on boots on the ground, and 211 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 3: I think it's the right red line, to be clear. 212 00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:32,880 Speaker 3: I agree with that red line, and there's a limit 213 00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:34,800 Speaker 3: to what you can do from the air. And the 214 00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:37,880 Speaker 3: Iranians have known now they got sucker punched a bit 215 00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:41,760 Speaker 3: on this. They were not obviously putting all their leadership together. 216 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:44,560 Speaker 3: They didn't expect that we would hit them when we did. 217 00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:46,600 Speaker 3: They didn't expect to get hit in daylight. They didn't 218 00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:50,199 Speaker 3: expect all of this, so that was pretty incredible. And 219 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:51,920 Speaker 3: they didn't know that we knew so much about where 220 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:57,320 Speaker 3: they would be. That all said though, this is these 221 00:11:57,320 --> 00:11:59,160 Speaker 3: are the limitations of what you can do when you 222 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:01,840 Speaker 3: don't control the ground, and we don't control the ground, 223 00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:07,120 Speaker 3: and the IRGC is still the security apparatus in that country, 224 00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:09,600 Speaker 3: and nobody wants to be the first one to poke 225 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:10,920 Speaker 3: their head out their door and be like, you know, 226 00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:13,320 Speaker 3: maybe we could do something different here, because your head's 227 00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 3: not going to stay on your shoulders. 228 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:15,199 Speaker 2: That's the concern. 229 00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:18,640 Speaker 1: The other suggestion that I have seen is that we 230 00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:22,440 Speaker 1: should take the island with boots on the ground, delta 231 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:26,280 Speaker 1: force style where they actually produce all the oil, and 232 00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:30,160 Speaker 1: just take control of their ability to produce oil. Because 233 00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:33,200 Speaker 1: this is kind of crazy. Iran is continuing to produce 234 00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:37,199 Speaker 1: oil and you're talking about grabbing carg Island. I mean that, yeah, 235 00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:39,160 Speaker 1: some pretty next level stuff. 236 00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:39,880 Speaker 5: That is. 237 00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:41,880 Speaker 1: I was doing all my reading buck I was trying 238 00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:44,360 Speaker 1: to prepare myself, like what are the different A goods. 239 00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:47,559 Speaker 2: You're going deep onto this one. Well, I'm fascinated by it. 240 00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:50,160 Speaker 1: I don't have the background of knowledge that you do, 241 00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:52,040 Speaker 1: so I'm trying to read as much as I can. 242 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:55,680 Speaker 1: And there's an idea out there that Israeli and US 243 00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:59,680 Speaker 1: special forces could seize the island of oil production and 244 00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:04,400 Speaker 1: basically end any ability of Iran to have control over 245 00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:09,600 Speaker 1: the ingress or egress of oil. Not dissimilar in some 246 00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:12,600 Speaker 1: ways to what we did with Venezuela, but just take 247 00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:16,520 Speaker 1: control of this island and say, hey, we now are 248 00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:21,280 Speaker 1: the captain of the Iranian oil ship and we determine everything. 249 00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:23,640 Speaker 1: Because it's kind of crazy to me, buck I didn't 250 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:27,520 Speaker 1: realize Iran has continued to refine and be shipping oil 251 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,680 Speaker 1: even as we have been attacking them. I think that 252 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:32,200 Speaker 1: would surprise a lot of people. 253 00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:37,280 Speaker 3: I mean, carg Island is essentially where all of the 254 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:40,839 Speaker 3: processing of oil. Remember there's you'll hear these things, and 255 00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:42,200 Speaker 3: I know that some of you are listening to this 256 00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:44,280 Speaker 3: or like, I've been an oil man for forty years, Bucket, 257 00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:46,320 Speaker 3: you know a lot more than me. And sorry, I'm 258 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:49,000 Speaker 3: just assuming the oil men are in Texas. Has pardon me. 259 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:51,640 Speaker 3: But I know there's other places. But you know there's 260 00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 3: some of the other stuff backwards and forwards. But you 261 00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:56,120 Speaker 3: hear things like heavy crude and sweet crude and all 262 00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 3: this different stuff. This it has to be refined for 263 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:01,560 Speaker 3: its usable in the marketplace. Right, It's not just like 264 00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:03,040 Speaker 3: it pumps out of the ground that it goes right 265 00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:07,680 Speaker 3: into a car. And ninety percent of car of Iranian 266 00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:12,480 Speaker 3: oil is processed at Carg Island. And you're talking about 267 00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:14,960 Speaker 3: almost a billion barrels of oil a year there, right, 268 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,600 Speaker 3: So if you are you don't have to stop the 269 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:19,200 Speaker 3: oil for being pumped out of the ground, nor do 270 00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:21,440 Speaker 3: you have to touch the oil infrastructure that does that, 271 00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:25,440 Speaker 3: which would be a very very bad idea to have 272 00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:29,280 Speaker 3: essentially a total choke point for Iranian oil exports because 273 00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:32,320 Speaker 3: they can't refine it, they ain't selling it. This is 274 00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:34,600 Speaker 3: the same way, one hundred percent. 275 00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:36,800 Speaker 1: And this is why I think, in addition to not 276 00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:40,560 Speaker 1: wanting to give away strategic operational goals, this is why 277 00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:44,440 Speaker 1: boots on the ground doesn't necessarily mean tens of thousands 278 00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:47,680 Speaker 1: of troops. It could mean not only on this Carg Island, 279 00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:52,560 Speaker 1: but also on some of the nuclear mountainous terrain that 280 00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:55,600 Speaker 1: you might have to go into. It could mean elite 281 00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:59,200 Speaker 1: commando style raids with boots on the ground that is 282 00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:01,600 Speaker 1: very different than and what we saw, for instance, in Iraq. 283 00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 3: It takes something really worthwhile to switch your cell phone service. 284 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:06,480 Speaker 2: I get that. 285 00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:08,920 Speaker 3: I was with AT and T for years, but then 286 00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:11,400 Speaker 3: I switched to pure Talk. Now there's a bunch of 287 00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:14,840 Speaker 3: reasons why I switched. One was certainly their America first approach, 288 00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:18,240 Speaker 3: the fact that they align with our values and they 289 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:21,160 Speaker 3: employ an all US based customer service team. But I 290 00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:22,920 Speaker 3: got to say the fact that their service is on 291 00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:25,440 Speaker 3: the same towers and network as the big name companies 292 00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:28,360 Speaker 3: out there, but at half the price. I mean, that's 293 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:31,320 Speaker 3: a really big reason too. For twenty five dollars a month, 294 00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:34,000 Speaker 3: Pure Talk gives you unlimited talk, text, and plenty of data. 295 00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:37,000 Speaker 3: You can keep your phone and your number with pure Talk. 296 00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:40,240 Speaker 3: There's no contract, no cancelation fees. Grab your cell phone, 297 00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:43,120 Speaker 3: dial pound two to fifty and say the keywords Clay 298 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:46,960 Speaker 3: and buck. Let pure Talk's US customer service team help 299 00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:49,480 Speaker 3: you make the switch in fifteen minutes or less. Dial 300 00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:51,840 Speaker 3: pound two five zero, say Clay and buck and you'll 301 00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:54,880 Speaker 3: say fifty percent off your first month dial Pound two 302 00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:59,720 Speaker 3: five zero say Clay and Buck Puretalk, America's wireless company. 303 00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:04,680 Speaker 2: Making America great again. Isn't just one man, It's many. 304 00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:08,320 Speaker 6: The team forty seven podcast Sunday's at noon Eastern in 305 00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:11,080 Speaker 6: the Clay and Buck podcast feed. Find it on the 306 00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:14,320 Speaker 6: iHeartRadio app or wherever you get your podcasts. 307 00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:17,840 Speaker 3: Second hour of Clay and Buck goes right now. We're 308 00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:23,240 Speaker 3: joined by Steve Hilton. He's running for governor in California. Steve, 309 00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:26,240 Speaker 3: always great to have you our friend, But we got 310 00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:28,040 Speaker 3: to dive into something before we get into all the 311 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 3: policy and all the seriousness. It seems that you, sir, 312 00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:36,680 Speaker 3: are sporting a Clay Travis style beard, and I just 313 00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:40,040 Speaker 3: want to say that the people of America have spoken. 314 00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:45,120 Speaker 3: They are fans of your salt and pepper beard. I'm 315 00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:47,840 Speaker 3: a slightly different generation than you and Clay, so my 316 00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:50,280 Speaker 3: beard doesn't quite have the gravi toss of all that 317 00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:53,120 Speaker 3: silver quite yet, but I think it looks very distinguished 318 00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:53,960 Speaker 3: on you and Clay. 319 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:55,840 Speaker 2: And so I'm a proponent. 320 00:16:57,560 --> 00:17:00,280 Speaker 7: Okay, So I got to tell you the story, and 321 00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:04,720 Speaker 7: it's got a good ending. So it's totally accidental. We're 322 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:08,879 Speaker 7: away for Thanksgiving last November, and I was just lazy 323 00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:11,080 Speaker 7: and I didn't shave. And the first day back, I 324 00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:13,320 Speaker 7: had some really early TV here, like Fox and Friends 325 00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:16,800 Speaker 7: or something, and thought I just didn't have the time 326 00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:19,640 Speaker 7: or the energy to shave. As I went on, assuming 327 00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:23,240 Speaker 7: i'd get all this feedback saying you're so scruffy, why 328 00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:25,840 Speaker 7: didn't you clean up? Quite the opposite, a bunch of 329 00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:30,000 Speaker 7: nice messages about the beard, which really wasn't a beard. 330 00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:32,520 Speaker 7: At that point, I thought I'd tried out on the 331 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:35,440 Speaker 7: road in California. I took a poll at every event 332 00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:39,120 Speaker 7: that I did, overwhelmingly positive. And here and then there 333 00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:40,879 Speaker 7: are two moments that I thought I gotta stick with this. 334 00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:44,639 Speaker 7: Number One, I did Don Junior's podcast, and you know 335 00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:47,480 Speaker 7: I've known Don for many years, and he came on 336 00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:50,320 Speaker 7: on the zoom and the first thing he said was, Hey, man, 337 00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:53,239 Speaker 7: love the Maga beard. So I thought, I don't know, 338 00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:55,600 Speaker 7: is that a thing, the Maga beard? And then here's 339 00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:57,600 Speaker 7: the one that I think you'll enjoy. I just got 340 00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:00,800 Speaker 7: a text from a good friend of mine is supporting me. 341 00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:05,520 Speaker 7: A legend James Woods, the legendary James Woods, texted me 342 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:08,639 Speaker 7: last week and said this is it. It gives you 343 00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:11,480 Speaker 7: exactly the right amount of gravitas. I really think you 344 00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:14,080 Speaker 7: can win this now, so they I mean it's staying. 345 00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:17,479 Speaker 3: You're like the Josekis guy with a British accent. So 346 00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:20,600 Speaker 3: I think that this is this is a strong there's 347 00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:23,399 Speaker 3: a strong play for you. We support it. But now 348 00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:25,639 Speaker 3: let's get into this. Because we've talked about the governor thing, 349 00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:27,560 Speaker 3: We're going to talk you about that more. You got 350 00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:29,920 Speaker 3: to tell us what's going on here with the most 351 00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:35,280 Speaker 3: recent fraud revelations in your state. Obviously, all the Democrats 352 00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:37,760 Speaker 3: in charge obviously knew some asleep at the wheeler probably 353 00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:40,959 Speaker 3: you know, doesn't even care about the fraud hospices. What 354 00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:43,840 Speaker 3: do we know about the hospice fraud. 355 00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:46,840 Speaker 7: Well, the first thing to bear in minded this is 356 00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:51,080 Speaker 7: not neglect or incompetence. This is corruption. Because the reason 357 00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:53,639 Speaker 7: that all this fraud has gone on in California and 358 00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:56,720 Speaker 7: our estimate, so remember, just to take a few steps back, 359 00:18:56,920 --> 00:19:01,360 Speaker 7: I set up last year in the way of them revelations, 360 00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:05,400 Speaker 7: a whistleblower line here in California called califoraud dot com 361 00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:07,800 Speaker 7: and we've had thousands of tips coming in. And then 362 00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:10,480 Speaker 7: earlier this year, we set up cal Doge, which is 363 00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:13,159 Speaker 7: now up and running. Obviously, we're not elected yet, so 364 00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:16,600 Speaker 7: it's not an official thing, but we've got many volunteers 365 00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:19,280 Speaker 7: going through the books finding the fraud and we're publishing 366 00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:22,280 Speaker 7: these fraud reports. And one of the main areas that 367 00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:25,280 Speaker 7: we got tips for was in this medical space because 368 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:28,199 Speaker 7: it's just huge amounts of money and it's and the 369 00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:31,080 Speaker 7: reason it's corrupt is if you look at the donations 370 00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:35,280 Speaker 7: to Democrat politicians in California and you look at the categories, 371 00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:38,199 Speaker 7: and Gavin Newsom is a useful proxy here. He's been 372 00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:41,800 Speaker 7: running statewide in California for sixteen years. The number one 373 00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:46,480 Speaker 7: category of his donors government unions number two, try lawyers 374 00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:50,640 Speaker 7: number three, private sector unions number four, healthcare, healthcare don't 375 00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:53,520 Speaker 7: they're making money off of this, and they are, And 376 00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:57,159 Speaker 7: Gavin Newsom is the puppet of these people who are 377 00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 7: doing the fraud. And that's why this goes on. It's 378 00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:02,920 Speaker 7: not neglect, it's not incompetence. It's corruption and the scale 379 00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:07,119 Speaker 7: of it is just unbelievable and the brazen, shameless theft 380 00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:10,240 Speaker 7: of our money to put in the pockets of these 381 00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:13,119 Speaker 7: scammers that then give money donations to gamm and you 382 00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:15,520 Speaker 7: some of the other Democrats. It's just unbelievable. But the 383 00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:17,800 Speaker 7: good news is we'll be now and does not just ask. 384 00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:21,000 Speaker 7: You had various people now really investigating it. You've got 385 00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:24,080 Speaker 7: the Federal Action JD leading that it's really going to 386 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:27,240 Speaker 7: come to an end, especially when I'm elected in November, 387 00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:29,400 Speaker 7: and we're going to just stop all this in its tracks. 388 00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:31,840 Speaker 7: Last point I'd make is I'm putting together a slate, 389 00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:35,160 Speaker 7: a team of candidates running with me statewide in California. 390 00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:37,240 Speaker 7: That's never been done before. In the governor's race. A 391 00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:40,280 Speaker 7: very important position is the state Controller. And the state 392 00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:43,840 Speaker 7: Controller has the power to audit every organization receiving state 393 00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:46,679 Speaker 7: money and to turn off the supply of money literally 394 00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:50,160 Speaker 7: to stop the money flowing. And there's a fantastic guy 395 00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:53,840 Speaker 7: called Herb Morgan running with me. We're working very closely together. 396 00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:56,960 Speaker 7: If you know, we can really change this big time 397 00:20:57,119 --> 00:20:58,359 Speaker 7: if we're elected this year. 398 00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:06,280 Speaker 1: Last hour, I saw that this moron, Eric Swalwell is 399 00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:10,240 Speaker 1: right now potentially going to be favored as the Democrat. 400 00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:13,000 Speaker 1: I don't know what I'll have to do if you 401 00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:16,919 Speaker 1: are running against Eric Swalwell, but there has to be 402 00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:20,639 Speaker 1: forty IQ points at least that separate you from Eric Swalwell. 403 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:24,240 Speaker 1: I want to put out the call up and down 404 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:28,359 Speaker 1: with the breadth of California right now. The election is 405 00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 1: when when can people start voting for you? And I 406 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:34,919 Speaker 1: think again a lot of people don't understand this California 407 00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:37,480 Speaker 1: has I think it's called a jungle primary, right where 408 00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:40,440 Speaker 1: the top two, regardless of party, advance. 409 00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:43,280 Speaker 2: So explain all the rules, tell people how to vote. 410 00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:45,679 Speaker 1: What do they need to know, because we are getting 411 00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:48,040 Speaker 1: close to ballots being headed out. 412 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:51,840 Speaker 7: Exactly right, Clay, thank you. Listen, this top two system 413 00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:54,360 Speaker 7: is ridiculous. Obviously we should get rid of it. Book 414 00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:55,760 Speaker 7: we got it, and so we've got to play by 415 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:58,480 Speaker 7: these rules. For the last year or so, you've seen 416 00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:01,320 Speaker 7: a kind of clown can situation on the Democrat side, 417 00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:04,720 Speaker 7: nine or ten candidates, none of all of them incredibly 418 00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:09,560 Speaker 7: unimpressive machine politicians and hacks and ridiculous people, and they've 419 00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:12,080 Speaker 7: been dividing up the vote. And as a result of that, 420 00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:15,000 Speaker 7: in a lot of these polls, I've been leading and 421 00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:17,280 Speaker 7: there's one other Republican who will get to in a second. 422 00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:20,480 Speaker 7: Often we've been the top two. But I said, all along. 423 00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:22,920 Speaker 7: It's not going to stay that way because the Democrat 424 00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:25,760 Speaker 7: machine is going to get behind one of their candidates. 425 00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:28,880 Speaker 7: The unions, in particularly the government unions, they will want 426 00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:31,679 Speaker 7: their puppet that they control, and that is what is 427 00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:34,560 Speaker 7: happening right now, and that's why you're seeing Eric Sworwell 428 00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:38,080 Speaker 7: move up and up, and I think that will continue. 429 00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:40,200 Speaker 7: The big unions are going to be endorsing in the 430 00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:43,600 Speaker 7: next few weeks, the teachers, the SCIU, the Nancy Pelosi 431 00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:46,320 Speaker 7: machine is going to get behind him, I think, And 432 00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:48,520 Speaker 7: so I think you're going to see him really advance now. 433 00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:51,919 Speaker 7: Right now, as of this morning, the Real Clear Politics 434 00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:54,840 Speaker 7: average of all the polls in California, there's a bunch 435 00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:58,040 Speaker 7: of these Democrats below seven percent. You've got Katie Porter 436 00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:01,240 Speaker 7: a ten percent, You've got Tom Stier and the other 437 00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:05,520 Speaker 7: Republican Chad Bianco eleven percent, Eric Swollwell at thirteen, and 438 00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:08,080 Speaker 7: I'm on fifteen and a half. So that's the good news. 439 00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:10,640 Speaker 7: On the average, I'm still ahead, But you're right. There 440 00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:13,439 Speaker 7: was a poll this week, first time that showed Eric 441 00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:15,199 Speaker 7: Swollwell in the lead, a real poll. It was a 442 00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:18,040 Speaker 7: proper serious pole and so we got to take this seriously. 443 00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:21,520 Speaker 7: The election is June, the second ballots go out May 444 00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:25,280 Speaker 7: the second. We're really weeks away now from this election 445 00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:29,480 Speaker 7: kicking off. The most important thing to understand is that 446 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:33,720 Speaker 7: if we split the Republican vote, it's not only that 447 00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:36,399 Speaker 7: you're going to get Eric Swowell. You're probably going to 448 00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:41,280 Speaker 7: get Eric Swowell and Tom Steyer, the billionaire climate fanatic. 449 00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 7: He has already spent seventy million dollars just in the 450 00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:48,880 Speaker 7: last few weeks, a few months, and that's moving him 451 00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:51,719 Speaker 7: up in the polls. And because of this top two system, 452 00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:54,720 Speaker 7: you don't need a huge percentage to make it into 453 00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:57,399 Speaker 7: the general election because there's so many candidates. So I 454 00:23:57,440 --> 00:24:00,200 Speaker 7: can see a situation where we've got you know, I 455 00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:03,160 Speaker 7: don't know what to even make of that Dia versus Swallow. 456 00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:06,719 Speaker 7: What a joke. But if you get behind one Republican 457 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:09,760 Speaker 7: candidate and I'm the leading Republican and there's a lot 458 00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:12,200 Speaker 7: of issues with the other guy, Chad Bianco, he took 459 00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:15,840 Speaker 7: a knee for BLM, he says crazy things on immigration, 460 00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:20,320 Speaker 7: he's basically for amnesty on immigration. You can't have him. 461 00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:23,679 Speaker 7: And so this is the moment for every Republican to 462 00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:27,840 Speaker 7: get serious about this, get behind the leading Republican candidate, 463 00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:29,720 Speaker 7: and then I will be guaranteed to be in the 464 00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:32,119 Speaker 7: top two, because that's how the math will work. And 465 00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:34,119 Speaker 7: then it's a whole new fight and we'll take it 466 00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:35,640 Speaker 7: to whoever the Democrats put up. 467 00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:38,880 Speaker 3: Speaking of Steve Hilton, he's running for governor and he's 468 00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 3: telling us all about how this race is critical but 469 00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:47,200 Speaker 3: also winnable in his estimation in his maths, and Stephen 470 00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:49,479 Speaker 3: to that end, I saw a lot of people are 471 00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:52,720 Speaker 3: focused in on gas prices right now for obvious reasons. 472 00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:56,240 Speaker 3: But your state is always the punching bag, you know 473 00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:57,920 Speaker 3: it for the rest of the country of. 474 00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:00,520 Speaker 2: You see how high the gas prices are are there. 475 00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:03,639 Speaker 3: So yes, Iran has everyone oh my gosh, what are 476 00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:05,520 Speaker 3: gas prices going to do? I think it's going to 477 00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:07,880 Speaker 3: be fine, by the way, but everyone's a little freaked out. 478 00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:11,320 Speaker 3: And then in California it's, well, your gas price is 479 00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:14,159 Speaker 3: it's like there's always an oil embargo somewhere because California's 480 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:17,960 Speaker 3: gas prices are crazy. You recently said to gas execs, 481 00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:21,240 Speaker 3: don't give up on the state of California. I don't 482 00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:24,000 Speaker 3: even think people realize that California has an oil and 483 00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:26,359 Speaker 3: gas industry. Can you speak to that a bit and 484 00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:29,040 Speaker 3: what you're hoping could happen if you become governor. 485 00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:34,040 Speaker 7: It's an amazing situation. Again, just the lunacy of these 486 00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:37,640 Speaker 7: Democrat ideaologues, these climate fanatics incredible. First of all, let's 487 00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:40,520 Speaker 7: look at the numbers. So the temporary spike, and it's 488 00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:43,920 Speaker 7: obviously temporary. Everyone knows that. In the gas price since 489 00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:48,800 Speaker 7: the Iran War, which is what about fifty cents average nationwide? 490 00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:52,520 Speaker 7: Right in California, you look at the average, it's two 491 00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:56,119 Speaker 7: dollars high the rest of the country. So such a 492 00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:58,000 Speaker 7: very simple way of putting it, Gavin you, some of 493 00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:01,520 Speaker 7: the Democrats are four times destructive as war in the 494 00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:03,879 Speaker 7: Middle East. For California is when it comes to gas. 495 00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:08,080 Speaker 7: The point about California is we have abundant oil and 496 00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:12,280 Speaker 7: gas reserves in our state, mainly in Kern County, but 497 00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:17,960 Speaker 7: now huge reserve has been discovered offshore in California. Right offshore, 498 00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:20,879 Speaker 7: there's a there's a reserve there which is considered to 499 00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:24,600 Speaker 7: be the second biggest in America, the nichere behind the 500 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:29,280 Speaker 7: Permian Basin. We have massive oil and gas reserves right now, 501 00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:34,000 Speaker 7: and we are importing in California nearly eighty percent of 502 00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:36,840 Speaker 7: the oil that we use. It used to be the opposite. 503 00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:39,760 Speaker 7: Most of our oil and gas we produced in state. 504 00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:42,320 Speaker 7: So what are these insane democrats now doing in the 505 00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:45,520 Speaker 7: name of climate. They are shipping oil halfway round the 506 00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:49,960 Speaker 7: world on giant super tankers, spewing out carbon emissions because 507 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:52,320 Speaker 7: they think it's part of their war on fossil fuels. 508 00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:55,560 Speaker 7: We're not using any less fossil fuel in California, We're 509 00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:58,679 Speaker 7: just importing it. It's insane, and that's the reason that 510 00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:02,359 Speaker 7: the refineries are close down. Because the refineries were built 511 00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:06,560 Speaker 7: to refine California crude. The supply of that has been 512 00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:09,280 Speaker 7: dropping year by year with their war on the industry 513 00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:12,119 Speaker 7: here in California. Now the insane situation. I'm just with 514 00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:16,400 Speaker 7: a group of energy industry folks this morning, and now 515 00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:19,560 Speaker 7: there's even the insane situation that the small amount that 516 00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:22,119 Speaker 7: we're relatively that we're now producing, it used to go 517 00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:25,560 Speaker 7: in pipelines from Kern County to the refineries in the 518 00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:29,480 Speaker 7: Bay Area and in Near La. One of those refineries 519 00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:32,360 Speaker 7: has now one of those pipelines has now shut down 520 00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:36,040 Speaker 7: because there's not enough oil to justify the business. So 521 00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:39,200 Speaker 7: now what's happening. The remainder that we're producing is going 522 00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:42,640 Speaker 7: on trucks, so they again in the name of climate, 523 00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:45,920 Speaker 7: instead of a nice clean pipeline, we're now trucking it. 524 00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:49,400 Speaker 7: It's so insane. Now, as governor, I could reverse all 525 00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:52,280 Speaker 7: of that because it's all being done through these bureaucratic 526 00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:57,000 Speaker 7: agencies CARB, the California Air Resources Board, the Energy Commission, COLGEM, 527 00:27:57,040 --> 00:28:00,800 Speaker 7: the Geologic and Energy Management Agency, And it's very straightforward. 528 00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:03,639 Speaker 7: As governor, I will end the war on fossil fuelds 529 00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:06,000 Speaker 7: as long as we are using oil and gas in California. 530 00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 7: We're gonna use California oil and gas. That will keep 531 00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:11,520 Speaker 7: the refineries open, bring down the cost of import, and 532 00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:13,879 Speaker 7: we're going to get to three dollar gas in California. 533 00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:16,399 Speaker 7: That's the first pledge I made on the campaign trip. 534 00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:20,040 Speaker 1: I think this is so important and why I think 535 00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:23,040 Speaker 1: again everybody out there listening to us right now needs 536 00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:25,000 Speaker 1: to go vote for you and get you into the 537 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:29,240 Speaker 1: final two. Buck and I have talked a lot about 538 00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:33,800 Speaker 1: the legacy of California. You grew up in England, Brut 539 00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:35,960 Speaker 1: grew up in New York. I grew up in Tennessee. 540 00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:39,160 Speaker 1: I remember the first time I ever got to go 541 00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:42,440 Speaker 1: to California. I was twenty one years old. I think 542 00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:44,680 Speaker 1: I had a college roommate from California. I went to 543 00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:47,680 Speaker 1: go visit, and I was so excited to step foot 544 00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:52,720 Speaker 1: on soil in California because of the legacy of awesomeness 545 00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:55,040 Speaker 1: that we had grown up with. Buckets talked about this 546 00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:58,080 Speaker 1: in New York. California, this golden, shining state on a hill. 547 00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:02,520 Speaker 1: It's lost. You could help to return that, but I 548 00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:06,440 Speaker 1: think your experience growing up in what California meant to 549 00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:11,960 Speaker 1: you still can resonate with so many Californians. 550 00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:13,680 Speaker 7: On one hundred percent, Clay, I love the way you 551 00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:17,040 Speaker 7: put that. Look, the California dream is a real thing. 552 00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:19,800 Speaker 7: You know this, and it was in my imagination too, 553 00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:22,000 Speaker 7: like even before we moved here with my wife and 554 00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:24,000 Speaker 7: my sons, you know, whenever it was twenty twelve, we 555 00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:25,920 Speaker 7: moved here back in the day. I mean, people know 556 00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:29,160 Speaker 7: me from Fox obviously, but you know, most of my 557 00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:31,080 Speaker 7: career has been in business, and I worked for a 558 00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:34,240 Speaker 7: while in the government in the UK for David Cameron 559 00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:36,880 Speaker 7: and when I was put in together the policy plan 560 00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:40,760 Speaker 7: before he became Prime Minister in twenty ten, one of 561 00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:43,560 Speaker 7: the Spectator magazine in the UK wrote a piece about me. 562 00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:46,040 Speaker 7: This is like twenty odd years ago, and they said, 563 00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:49,520 Speaker 7: and the title of the piece was was a cover 564 00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:53,560 Speaker 7: story California Dreaming, and the theme of it was Steve Hilton, 565 00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:56,840 Speaker 7: David Cameron's policy guru wants to make the US inspired 566 00:29:56,840 --> 00:29:59,479 Speaker 7: by California, wants to make the UK more like California. Well, 567 00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:01,680 Speaker 7: who would to do that today? I mean, that's how 568 00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:04,640 Speaker 7: far we've fallen. But the point is that that idea 569 00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:07,920 Speaker 7: of California. Sometimes I put it like this, California means 570 00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:11,920 Speaker 7: to America, what America means to the world. It represents 571 00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:16,760 Speaker 7: all the great virtues and strengths and beauty of our nation, 572 00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:20,959 Speaker 7: optimism and energy and dynamism and the kind of rebel 573 00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:24,520 Speaker 7: spirit and doing your own thing that's been crushed by 574 00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:30,160 Speaker 7: these years of bureaucratic, bloated, nanny state, bureaucratic government and 575 00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:32,400 Speaker 7: the taxes and the spending and the bloat and the 576 00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:36,360 Speaker 7: waste and the regulations crushing the soul and spirit of California. 577 00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:40,960 Speaker 7: But it won't take much to really get back to 578 00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:44,080 Speaker 7: that beautiful California dream, because we've just got to stop 579 00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:47,280 Speaker 7: the government from doing all these insane things, and then 580 00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:49,880 Speaker 7: people and entrepreneurs will take care of the rest of it. 581 00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:53,440 Speaker 3: Steve, bring home the w in this governor's race, and 582 00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:57,360 Speaker 3: don't touch that beard. All right, all right, you got it, 583 00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:00,960 Speaker 3: good man, good man, thanks for being with us. The 584 00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:03,320 Speaker 3: sirens and Israel went off all night Wednesday and the 585 00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:05,960 Speaker 3: Thursday morning, the same thing happened again last night, between 586 00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:09,400 Speaker 3: Iran's drone attacks and Hesbela's missile attacks. The population of 587 00:31:09,480 --> 00:31:11,880 Speaker 3: Israel's on high alert. Tens of thousands of them are 588 00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:14,840 Speaker 3: spending hours a day in protective momb shelters. This is 589 00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:16,560 Speaker 3: such a foreign concept to many of us here in 590 00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:18,720 Speaker 3: the States. Go into a bomb shelter in fear of 591 00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:21,400 Speaker 3: your life as competent as the IDF is, and how 592 00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:24,520 Speaker 3: will Israel protect its citizens? There are no guarantees. That's 593 00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:27,120 Speaker 3: why the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews are there 594 00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:30,480 Speaker 3: on the ground, bringing food, emergency equipment, care for children, 595 00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:33,120 Speaker 3: and help for the elderly, and supplying bomb shelters and 596 00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:36,560 Speaker 3: medical centers with critically needed essentials. This is the time 597 00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:39,080 Speaker 3: we stand with the Jewish population in Israel, just like 598 00:31:39,160 --> 00:31:41,720 Speaker 3: we'll stand by them in our nation. If you can 599 00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:44,800 Speaker 3: give forty five dollars right now to rush life saving 600 00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:47,560 Speaker 3: essentials to the vulnerable under fire, call eight eight eight 601 00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:51,160 Speaker 3: four eight eight IFCJ.

And I 620 00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:06,160 Speaker 1: just talked about two different stories that are happening simultaneously 621 00:33:06,600 --> 00:33:09,280 Speaker 1: on the left coast and the right coast of this country. 622 00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:13,360 Speaker 1: Out on the left coast in Washington State, they are 623 00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:17,080 Speaker 1: proposing and it looks like going to pass a nine 624 00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:22,920 Speaker 1: point nine percent yearly income tax state income tax on 625 00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:28,000 Speaker 1: anyone who makes a million dollars or more. Simultaneously, Buck, Mom, Donnie, 626 00:33:28,040 --> 00:33:29,800 Speaker 1: and I believe we have an audio cut of this 627 00:33:30,520 --> 00:33:34,440 Speaker 1: is saying that he wants a fifty percent estate tax 628 00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:39,560 Speaker 1: on his states of seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars 629 00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:44,120 Speaker 1: or more. That's basically buck anybody that owns any property 630 00:33:44,200 --> 00:33:47,760 Speaker 1: at all in New York City, and you can own 631 00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:50,760 Speaker 1: a seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars place in New 632 00:33:50,840 --> 00:33:54,040 Speaker 1: York City and not be wealthy at all. In fact, 633 00:33:54,560 --> 00:33:57,719 Speaker 1: you can struggle to even pay your bills. And some 634 00:33:57,760 --> 00:34:00,240 Speaker 1: of you are gonna say, how is that possible? Because 635 00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:02,840 Speaker 1: of the taxes and because of cost of living. Here 636 00:34:02,920 --> 00:34:06,640 Speaker 1: is Mom Donnie talking about this. Let's listen. I believe 637 00:34:06,640 --> 00:34:07,560 Speaker 1: it's cut twenty four. 638 00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:11,280 Speaker 9: Amidst being in the wealthiest city, in the wealthiest country 639 00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:13,480 Speaker 9: in the history of the world, we already see an 640 00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:16,239 Speaker 9: exodus of working in middle class New Yorkers. So I 641 00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:19,279 Speaker 9: don't have a hesitation in asking those who make the 642 00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:20,799 Speaker 9: most amount of money in the city or the most 643 00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:22,680 Speaker 9: profits in the city to pay a little bit more 644 00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:25,640 Speaker 9: so that everyone can actually stay in this city. It's 645 00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:29,840 Speaker 9: also something not just about justice or the ability for 646 00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:32,280 Speaker 9: working class people to live here. It is also actually 647 00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:35,759 Speaker 9: about ensuring that corporations can continue to attract the top 648 00:34:35,880 --> 00:34:37,080 Speaker 9: talent to this city. 649 00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:40,319 Speaker 2: Okay, this is it is. 650 00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:43,440 Speaker 1: Let me take a step back when you look at 651 00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:45,640 Speaker 1: the actual world, because I'm fired up about this, Bucket, 652 00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:48,239 Speaker 1: so I want to be crystal clear on this. The 653 00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:52,080 Speaker 1: data reflects that whenever you put these taxes in place, 654 00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:55,160 Speaker 1: you do not get the money that you expect you're 655 00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:58,120 Speaker 1: going to get because those who can avoid paying the 656 00:34:58,239 --> 00:35:03,080 Speaker 1: tax and leave, or or find super impressive accounting to 657 00:35:03,239 --> 00:35:07,880 Speaker 1: avoid paying the tax due and so you actually end 658 00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:11,880 Speaker 1: up netting less in tax because you were driving away 659 00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:15,319 Speaker 1: the biggest income tax payers.

We are gaining a lot of 680 00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:18,920 Speaker 1: super impressive, talented people. Elon Muskin, Texas. Starbucks of all places, 681 00:36:18,960 --> 00:36:21,480 Speaker 1: just announced they're going to hire thousands of new people 682 00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:26,360 Speaker 1: in Tennessee. Oracle is relocating to Nashville.

And Buck, this 685 00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:36,759 Speaker 1: is going to be transformative on so many different levels 686 00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:38,600 Speaker 1: because what it's gonna do is it's gonna make the 687 00:36:38,640 --> 00:36:42,080 Speaker 1: low tax states have way better services. And the people 688 00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:44,799 Speaker 1: that are left behind in New York and California and 689 00:36:45,160 --> 00:36:48,400 Speaker 1: Illinois and Washington are going to keep getting taxed at 690 00:36:48,480 --> 00:36:50,640 Speaker 1: higher rates. The tax base is going to be leaving, 691 00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:54,160 Speaker 1: and the resources and tax base is just going to 692 00:36:54,200 --> 00:36:55,120 Speaker 1: continue to diminish. 693 00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:56,680 Speaker 2: I think this is a huge story. 694 00:36:58,160 --> 00:37:02,640 Speaker 3: Again, there's two different kinds of billionaires in my mind, 695 00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:11,000 Speaker 3: who end up leaving New York, California, Washington State. And 696 00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:13,640 Speaker 3: there's a concentration of billionaires in those places. 697 00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:13,960 Speaker 5: Right. 698 00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:18,920 Speaker 3: You have Silicon Valley in California, you have the Microsoft 699 00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:23,960 Speaker 3: slash Starbucks, you know, tech and everything else going on 700 00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:28,000 Speaker 3: in Seattle and you have so you have billionaires there too. 701 00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:30,279 Speaker 3: And obviously a lot of billionaires in New York. But 702 00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:35,400 Speaker 3: the ultra rich who moved to Florida who have always 703 00:37:35,400 --> 00:37:41,880 Speaker 3: supported the insane Democrat policies and always said things like 704 00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:45,560 Speaker 3: I think we should pay more taxes and I think 705 00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:48,560 Speaker 3: we should have bigger government and blah blah blah all 706 00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:54,880 Speaker 3: that stuff. They really tick me off. And there's a difference. 707 00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:57,920 Speaker 3: You know, you have the Elon Musks and people like 708 00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:01,560 Speaker 3: him and Peter Thiel has been helping the right and 709 00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:04,839 Speaker 3: been on the right for a long time, so he's 710 00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:07,000 Speaker 3: not he's not like new to the game. But you 711 00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:10,800 Speaker 3: have Peter Tiel, you have Elon Musk, you have people 712 00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:15,360 Speaker 3: who have come forward and said the Democrat approach to 713 00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:20,480 Speaker 3: governance fails. I don't want my companies to be subjected 714 00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:24,720 Speaker 3: to this idiocy anymore. I'm going to Texas, I'm going 715 00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:29,799 Speaker 3: to Florida. And that's great because they are telling everybody 716 00:38:30,320 --> 00:38:33,080 Speaker 3: what the reality is, and they are therefore a part 717 00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:36,799 Speaker 3: of the solution. The challenge that I see here is 718 00:38:36,840 --> 00:38:40,720 Speaker 3: people like Schultz, because he's been so you know, left 719 00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:44,080 Speaker 3: wing and lib for so long.

People 831 00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:54,000 Speaker 3: in Florida who are like, you know, don't bring those 832 00:43:54,120 --> 00:43:56,960 Speaker 3: New York you know, don't bring those New York voting 833 00:43:57,520 --> 00:43:58,320 Speaker 3: This are. 834 00:43:58,520 --> 00:44:01,200 Speaker 2: As a Tennessee and this is something people are concerned about. 835 00:44:01,239 --> 00:44:01,759 Speaker 2: But hold on. 836 00:44:01,880 --> 00:44:05,640 Speaker 3: All that concern is now the Northeasterners who have moved 837 00:44:05,680 --> 00:44:09,279 Speaker 3: to Florida in you know, during COVID and after, we're 838 00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:12,040 Speaker 3: like the elves who show up in Helm's Deep in 839 00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:14,439 Speaker 3: the Lord of the Rings. My friends, Okay, we are 840 00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:18,799 Speaker 3: the right wing of the Northeast and we have this, Yeah, 841 00:44:18,840 --> 00:44:22,120 Speaker 3: we have flipped Florida redder than it has ever been. 842 00:44:22,400 --> 00:44:25,000 Speaker 3: We are reinforcements, We are the cavalry. We are not 843 00:44:25,120 --> 00:44:28,400 Speaker 3: undermining you. What I understand from my Texas friends, I'm 844 00:44:28,400 --> 00:44:29,880 Speaker 3: sure someone that could call in and tell us this. 845 00:44:30,239 --> 00:44:32,640 Speaker 3: Now Texas for a long time because of the tax 846 00:44:32,680 --> 00:44:36,200 Speaker 3: and business climate there relative to some of the West 847 00:44:36,200 --> 00:44:42,359 Speaker 3: coast states, particularly California. They've been getting fancy Californians who 848 00:44:42,440 --> 00:44:46,680 Speaker 3: show up and and and they're making Austin bluer and 849 00:44:46,719 --> 00:44:49,880 Speaker 3: bluer basically and creating. And it's also true in some 850 00:44:49,920 --> 00:44:52,760 Speaker 3: of the other cities I think as well, certainly in Dallas, uh. 851 00:44:52,800 --> 00:44:55,319 Speaker 3: And that is a different phenomenon because the people that 852 00:44:55,360 --> 00:44:58,080 Speaker 3: have flushed, and the numbers speak for this. It's one 853 00:44:58,080 --> 00:45:01,840 Speaker 3: point two million more Republicans in Florida now registered because 854 00:45:01,880 --> 00:45:04,520 Speaker 3: of the migration from mostly the Northeast, but some other 855 00:45:04,560 --> 00:45:07,680 Speaker 3: parts of the country too. You're welcome, Florida. We are here. 856 00:45:07,760 --> 00:45:12,280 Speaker 1: By the way, This is where I get concerned Blue 857 00:45:12,680 --> 00:45:16,120 Speaker 1: those people who are left behind the Red State, normal 858 00:45:16,360 --> 00:45:19,600 Speaker 1: thinking refugee Staten Island listening to us right now in 859 00:45:19,760 --> 00:45:23,600 Speaker 1: war A lot of Long Island, much of Westchester now 860 00:45:23,680 --> 00:45:26,840 Speaker 1: where people are still sane and you know, certain pockets 861 00:45:26,920 --> 00:45:32,640 Speaker 1: of Manhattan proper, they're going to get drowned in even 862 00:45:32,760 --> 00:45:37,000 Speaker 1: more blue craziness because Buck, what should happen is people 863 00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:40,160 Speaker 1: should look around and say, these are really bad ideas 864 00:45:40,520 --> 00:45:43,480 Speaker 1: that we are enabling with the election of people like 865 00:45:43,520 --> 00:45:50,600 Speaker 1: mom Donnie Brandon Johnson in Chicago. Instead, they're gonna double 866 00:45:50,960 --> 00:45:54,520 Speaker 1: triple and quadruple down on crazy, which is going to 867 00:45:54,600 --> 00:45:58,440 Speaker 1: continue to drive away even more people. And I think 868 00:45:58,480 --> 00:46:00,400 Speaker 1: what's going to happen is quality of life. Life in 869 00:46:00,440 --> 00:46:04,320 Speaker 1: places like Texas, Tennessee and Florida is going to skyrocket 870 00:46:04,360 --> 00:46:07,320 Speaker 1: even more than it is now in a favorable direction, 871 00:46:07,440 --> 00:46:10,239 Speaker 1: because the revenue is going to be better, the services 872 00:46:10,239 --> 00:46:12,400 Speaker 1: are going to be better, the safety is going to 873 00:46:12,400 --> 00:46:14,640 Speaker 1: be better. Your kids' schools are going to be better. 874 00:46:14,680 --> 00:46:17,200 Speaker 1: I'm talking about public schools, and all of that's going 875 00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:19,160 Speaker 1: to be moving in the opposite direction in. 876 00:46:19,120 --> 00:46:20,280 Speaker 2: All of these blue places. 877 00:46:21,200 --> 00:46:23,920 Speaker 1: And I think we're going to see a fundamental realignment 878 00:46:24,040 --> 00:46:27,040 Speaker 1: of power as a result, because as money moves into 879 00:46:27,080 --> 00:46:30,800 Speaker 1: these new states and they have less regulation and lower taxes, 880 00:46:31,080 --> 00:46:33,799 Speaker 1: everything's going to get better. And as money moves out 881 00:46:33,840 --> 00:46:37,279 Speaker 1: of New York and Illinois in California and Washington, all 882 00:46:37,280 --> 00:46:40,239 Speaker 1: these places, everything's going to get worse and we're going 883 00:46:40,280 --> 00:46:41,879 Speaker 1: to see a fundamental realignment. 884 00:46:41,960 --> 00:46:42,279 Speaker 2: I saw. 885 00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:44,480 Speaker 1: I think it was Peter Thiel said, Miami is going 886 00:46:44,520 --> 00:46:46,719 Speaker 1: to replace New York City as the financial capital of 887 00:46:46,719 --> 00:46:49,840 Speaker 1: the United States. I think that this is going to happen. 888 00:46:49,960 --> 00:46:52,759 Speaker 1: I think within ten years that may be true. I 889 00:46:52,800 --> 00:46:54,040 Speaker 1: think that actually is happening. 890 00:46:54,160 --> 00:46:54,440 Speaker 5: All right. 891 00:46:54,480 --> 00:46:57,080 Speaker 3: There's a nationwide nonprofit that I really need you to 892 00:46:57,160 --> 00:47:00,160 Speaker 3: take a moment to think about Preborn, because there's no 893 00:47:00,320 --> 00:47:05,200 Speaker 3: organization or team more dedicated to helping pregnant mothers with 894 00:47:05,280 --> 00:47:07,560 Speaker 3: the toughest decision that they're gonna make, which is, of course, 895 00:47:07,880 --> 00:47:11,600 Speaker 3: life or abortion for their baby. But Preborn staffers they've 896 00:47:11,640 --> 00:47:13,520 Speaker 3: heard it all, and they know about the pressure that 897 00:47:13,520 --> 00:47:16,359 Speaker 3: women are under when they have an unplanned pregnancy, and 898 00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:19,400 Speaker 3: in so many cases, the society around them is pushing 899 00:47:19,440 --> 00:47:22,800 Speaker 3: them toward abortion. But at preborn clinics, a woman receives 900 00:47:22,840 --> 00:47:26,440 Speaker 3: compassion without pressure, she receives clarity about the life growing 901 00:47:26,440 --> 00:47:29,279 Speaker 3: inside her, and when she gets that ultrasound, more than 902 00:47:29,320 --> 00:47:32,520 Speaker 3: eighty percent of the time that mom chooses life. But 903 00:47:32,560 --> 00:47:35,680 Speaker 3: this is only possible because Preborn is supported by you, 904 00:47:36,160 --> 00:47:39,279 Speaker 3: the pro life community. This March, Preborn is attempting to 905 00:47:39,280 --> 00:47:42,520 Speaker 3: save the lives of sixty eight hundred babies just this month, 906 00:47:42,800 --> 00:47:45,520 Speaker 3: but it will take thousands of people like you listening 907 00:47:45,520 --> 00:47:49,560 Speaker 3: to just say yes to this ask. Please pause your 908 00:47:49,560 --> 00:47:52,640 Speaker 3: busy day for a moment and consider saying yes to 909 00:47:52,719 --> 00:47:55,480 Speaker 3: a gift of just twenty eight dollars. That's the cost 910 00:47:55,480 --> 00:47:58,120 Speaker 3: of one of these ultrasounds, and you could be saving 911 00:47:58,200 --> 00:48:01,239 Speaker 3: a tiny baby's life with that donate. If you could 912 00:48:01,239 --> 00:48:03,880 Speaker 3: spare one hundred and forty dollars, that would help five 913 00:48:04,080 --> 00:48:08,319 Speaker 3: mothers to make the choice for life. To donate, use 914 00:48:08,360 --> 00:48:11,200 Speaker 3: your cell phone and dial pound two fifty and say 915 00:48:11,200 --> 00:48:15,320 Speaker 3: the keyword baby.

I know you're in The Fugitive. Actually 961 00:50:37,719 --> 00:50:40,600 Speaker 3: remember your character well in The Fugitive. My wife had 962 00:50:40,600 --> 00:50:42,279 Speaker 3: never seen it, and I watched it with her maybe 963 00:50:42,280 --> 00:50:44,240 Speaker 3: six months ago, so I got to kind of relive 964 00:50:44,239 --> 00:50:44,560 Speaker 3: that again. 965 00:50:44,560 --> 00:50:47,520 Speaker 2: How does it hold up?

I 1143 00:59:48,840 --> 00:59:50,640 Speaker 1: think a lot of people listening to us have this 1144 00:59:50,760 --> 00:59:54,000 Speaker 1: idea that Hollywood is a monolith and that everybody hates 1145 00:59:54,280 --> 00:59:57,080 Speaker 1: what many of the people listening to this right now 1146 00:59:57,840 --> 01:00:01,520 Speaker 1: would believe. I found that to be true, particularly the 1147 01:00:01,600 --> 01:00:04,080 Speaker 1: number of guys and gals who work and do the 1148 01:00:04,120 --> 01:00:08,120 Speaker 1: actual grunt work of making movies and television. I bet 1149 01:00:08,160 --> 01:00:10,959 Speaker 1: you have too. Maybe you could tell people out there 1150 01:00:11,360 --> 01:00:13,880 Speaker 1: don't always paint with a huge broad brush when it 1151 01:00:13,920 --> 01:00:16,440 Speaker 1: comes to the people who make many of these movies 1152 01:00:16,480 --> 01:00:18,480 Speaker 1: and actually do the physical jobs. 1153 01:00:18,800 --> 01:00:23,720 Speaker 5: Yeah, the crew, you are, like, You're right. The crew. 1154 01:00:24,800 --> 01:00:29,760 Speaker 10: Is generally thinking more in the spectrum that I think 1155 01:00:29,800 --> 01:00:30,400 Speaker 10: we think. 1156 01:00:31,920 --> 01:00:38,040 Speaker 5: But the people running it, you know, are not. 1157 01:00:38,280 --> 01:00:40,480 Speaker 10: You know, they make a lot of movies about how 1158 01:00:40,520 --> 01:00:44,800 Speaker 10: horrible the blacklist is. But believe me, if they you know, 1159 01:00:46,120 --> 01:00:48,400 Speaker 10: they wouldn't blacklist you in a second. 1160 01:00:49,720 --> 01:00:50,360 Speaker 5: I try to. 1161 01:00:50,320 --> 01:00:52,280 Speaker 10: Stay and I'll be honest with you, this is the 1162 01:00:52,400 --> 01:00:55,680 Speaker 10: maybe the most that I've leaned even in the conversation. 1163 01:00:55,600 --> 01:00:58,160 Speaker 5: Because I'm I don't really give. 1164 01:00:59,760 --> 01:01:04,880 Speaker 10: A flying egg what Robert de Niro thinks about anything, 1165 01:01:06,240 --> 01:01:12,800 Speaker 10: let alone politics, you know, being you know, Billy Ellish, 1166 01:01:12,880 --> 01:01:17,960 Speaker 10: all these people, one after another. They're millionaires who have 1167 01:01:18,080 --> 01:01:21,160 Speaker 10: no sense of the common life that common man lived. 1168 01:01:21,440 --> 01:01:24,440 Speaker 10: But you're talking about the hard working crew. That's the 1169 01:01:24,520 --> 01:01:26,760 Speaker 10: common man. By the way, that's me. I'm a working 1170 01:01:26,760 --> 01:01:29,880 Speaker 10: class guy. When you're a character actor, you know, I 1171 01:01:29,920 --> 01:01:34,040 Speaker 10: don't have the I don't have the platform to be 1172 01:01:33,600 --> 01:01:34,800 Speaker 10: a star. 1173 01:01:35,400 --> 01:01:38,760 Speaker 5: My platform is to support the star. But I made 1174 01:01:38,760 --> 01:01:39,280 Speaker 5: a good. 1175 01:01:39,120 --> 01:01:42,919 Speaker 10: Living standing next to Andy Griffith and Kathy Bates and 1176 01:01:43,480 --> 01:01:46,720 Speaker 10: you know, Don Johnson, and they put the new name 1177 01:01:46,760 --> 01:01:50,480 Speaker 10: into Aren't the Clown?
