You are entering the freedom hunch. Could Trump be the worst enemy that Vladimir Putin has ever had with the president? Certainly think so, he said as much. We'll get into that. And also you are hearing so much about this investigation and Mueller and the witch hunt and the probe. Where was Obama in all this? And how involved was he in what we have seen here from the deep state actors against Trump? Plus later on what is masculinity today?
We'll tackle that and the Democrats crazy chance to abolish ice that I'm more coming up on the buck Sexton Show. This is the buck Sexton Show, where the mission or mission is to decode what really matters with passionable intelligence. Make no mistake Americans. Ready, great, You're a great American. The buck Sexton Show begins, analysts no r toughness on Russia than any president in many, many years, maybe ever.
Look at the sanctions I've put on, look at the diplomats I threw out, Look at all of the things that I've done. Nobody else did what I've done. Obama didn't do it. Obama was a patsy for Russia. He was a total patsy. Look at the statement he made well he thought the mics were turned off. Okay, the stupid statement he made. Nobody there's a big deal about that. Getting along with President Putin. Getting along with Russia's a positive,
not a negative. Now, with that being said, if that doesn't work out, I'll be the worst enemy he's ever had, the worst he's ever had. They have President Trump and laying down the law. That Welcome to the buck Sexton showybody, great to have you here. You know, what a crazy week, right, I'm I'm looking forward to this this week, just getting into the books and we can move on next week to some other stuff because this week has just been bonkers, all this stuff about Russia and all the paranoia and
the insanity. You have people who still want to be treated as serious commentators on public affairs and on policy out there saying that Trump is a fully controlled asset of the Kremlin. I mean, people have just lost their minds, they really have. As we've discussed it all week, and I don't want to retread that ground. I'm just saying that Trump's coming out swinging here because he's not. He's not sorry, he knows who he is. You know, He's not controlled by the Kremlin. He knows that's all crap.
He knows the left wing is just trying to find ways to stir up more venom against the president, who's becoming invulnerable to the worst verbal barbs imaginable, because who cares at this point, they can't hate him anymore than they do. It's not really possib when you're getting compared to Hitler as a as a normal thing, when you haven't done anything even vaguely hit Larion. I think you started to get numb to it after a while. And I think that's where this president is. Also, by the way,
man of the week for me goes to Rampaul. Rampaul just getting it done. So glad to see the senator from Kentucky doing his thing. And he's got more on this. I mean, he's taking it now. He's taking his fellow Democrats, senators and some Republicans to task over just what they've put the country through this week Play twelve. Trump derangement syndrome has officially come to the Senate. The hatred for the president is so intense that partisans would rather risk
war than give diplomacy a chance. Does anybody remember that Ronald Reagan sat down with gorbach Off and we lessened the nuclear attentions. We need to still have those openings. No, what are he is saying or excusing Russia's meddling in our elections. Absolutely, we should protect the integrity of our elections. But simply bringing the hatred of the president to the Senate floor in order to say we're done with diplomacy.
We're going to add more sanctions and more sanctions. You know what, I would rather that we still have open channels of discussion with the Russians. You would think that's a pretty bipartisan point of view, right, open channels of discussion with the Russians. That's not something that should be controversial, should be too contentious, And yet it is, And yet it is. And you must say to yourself, why is that? Why is that the case? Oh, because this is all political.
This really has very little to do with geo politics and foreign policy. It's just as rand Paul said, his Trump arrangement syndrome on full display. Um, I want talk to you more about what we've seen from the Deep States and and why I find it really troubling that there are so few honest people on the other side of the Aisle, who will even admit that they still think deep state is like a laugh line, like ha ha, yeah, right,
there's a deep state. Do you want to explain to me how we have all of these former Intel Agency officials who are now paid left wing partisans. Okay, they've gone to the left wing networks, they're on the payroll, and they spend their time just trashing Trump in the most irresponsible way. And you know, he is the commander in chief. He is the top consumer of US intelligence products.
That's just a fact. And you'd think that people that have spent their lives, oh, just in public service, if they weren't hardcore idealogus for the left, would at least have some deference and some respect for the person that the American people have given the authority in their name to act as commander in chief. But there's none of that. There's not Not only is there no difference or or no decency even extended to the president, there is vitriol.
There is a complete and utter disgust for this president from them. So it's it's troubling to see and I think there's no way around this. There's no way to to try and soft pedal what's going on. They are in full on media revolt against this president and using they're once privileged positions in the government to enhance their voices to elevate themselves in the public discourse. It's very, very damaging, but it also is illuminating. We get to learn what they think, We get to learn what they
really believe. And part of that process has involved people like the former Director of National Intelligence, who I just interviewed I don't know, a week or two ago, myself, James Clapper, saying some things that maybe tell us more than he intended to. This is on because you know right now. One of the problems is that when they push and push on these issues of Russia, there are
counter arguments. One of the biggest ones, one of the most important ones is that if this was such a big deal, an attack on our democracy and oh my gosh, five alarm fire def Con one, what are we gonna do if all that were true? How could the Obama administration sit on it until really after the election. We all know the answer to this, but they this is one they can't get around. Obama made a political calculation. The Democrats who are in power, rolled the dice on
this one and they lost. They rolled the dice and they lost. Clapper said something very interesting though about this play clips seven please, and I'm alluding now to the president criticism of President Obama for all that he did or didn't do before he left office with respect to the Russian meddling. If it weren't for President Obama, we might not have done the intelligence community assessment that we did that set off a whole sequence of events which
are still unfolding today, notably Special Counsel Mueller's investigation. President Obama is responsible to that, and was he who tests us to do that intelligence community assessment. President Obama, according to Clapper, should be hailed to some kind of hero here for having to do an intelligence community assessment. Wow, that'll show them somebody who has been a part of
intelligence community assessments in the past. Let me tell you not exactly gonna strike fear into the hearts of the Rooskis. Did you see that email I sent you? No, I'll send it again. Did you get that off the copy here? Oh? No, I'll get it for you. Look, do we have the conference from booked up? Dope? Nope? I about share we do. Let's come back tomorrow. It's really not you know, snake eating door kickers gathered together to save America as part
of Team America. That that's not what the intelligence community assessment is. Just in case you wanted a little bit of extra background on that one. But here's the big avenue of inquiry that we haven't gotten really anything on yet, and I think we need to. And there are some challenges to it because of executive privilege and because of
all of the different ways that they'll fight this. Just like they're fighting disclosure at d o J, fighting disclosure from within the Oval office is an even easier thing to do, therefore more difficult to achieve transparency. What did Obama know about this Russia probe? And when did he know it? How much of what we are seeing now with you know, Struck and Page and you know all
these different figures Comy and Brannan and Clapper. You're gonna tell me that we've seen Clapper and Brendan running around essentially calling for people to do everything in their power to get rid of this president, that he's a danger to this country, there's a national security travesty, and they're doing everything they can to undermine him, to ruin his presidency to end his presidency. These were Obama's top intel guys.
Does anyone really think that they were siloed off from the Oval Office, that they weren't telling President Obama about what was going on here with this? Does anyone really think that they weren't a part of discussions in which Obama must have had to make decisions about whether to go public with some of this information before the election, and also, as we know to then have surveillance as a lamed when he was a lame duck president. You
have surveillance and investigations into Russia and Trump collusion. What did Obama know? Why have we found out so very very little about that? I mean, I'm I'm asking the
question rhetorically. I think we I think we understand why we haven't heard much about it, but we've come to realize, I would say, beyond a reasonable doubt that they were very powerful Democrat appointees in the intelligence community and at the Department of Justice, Essentially people that were either appointed by or deeply loyal to Obama, regardless of whether or not they were appointed, who were working to undermine, stop and then when they couldn't stop, destroy the Trump administration
using their government authority and power to do so. This is the deep state that we talked about so much. But what we don't yet know is how much the White House was informed of those efforts as they were ongoing. And I, as somebody who comes from an intelligence community background, refused to believe that Obama just washed his hands of this, had no idea, wasn't directing this, wasn't involved in this.
The information that I really want that just doesn't seem at all forthcoming right now, the stuff that I really need that I'm not getting to understand the full scope of just how grotesque the abuses of power were at the end of the Obama administration, using the intelligence community, weaponizing the surveillance and investigation processes of the i C
against a political opponent. We have to know what Obama's hand wasn't all this, How involved was the opposition party's president, knowing that once Hillary wasn't going to be the president, there had to be actions taken to mitigate the day image that would be done after Trump had won when it came to people finding out just what had really
gone on here. There's no question in my mind that there were efforts to hide information that they are going to be continued efforts to uh slow roll, if not entirely destroy any records that could be released that would illuminate this. But I just wanted to put it out here. Obama ordered, you'd heard Clapper himself saying, and Clapper would No. Clapper would have been in the Oval Office frequently with the President on these matters. Obama ordered the Intelligence community assessment.
Couldn't Can you imagine a world in which the FBI does not inform the President of the United States that they are running an investigation that they are running, perhaps even informants into people tied to the presidential campaign of the other party. I don't believe it that. I don't believe that's possible. I don't believe that happen. And we don't yet have full transparency on this. But where was Obama while all this stuff was happening, while the deep
state was trying to destroy Trump? What was Obama doing? What was he telling them? And how much did he know? We need answers to that. And the good part is now that I'm in DC, I actually know some people I can ask to try to help get some of those answers but I think that's the great because I'm thinking, you know, there's there is this effort now to slow things down in case Democrats, you know, Democrats take the house.
People are saying, oh, well, Comey needs them and Brennan needs them to take the House so that the investigation stopped. What if the reason that the FBI has been so slow to release this information isn't just that it's protecting itself, but what if they think that they are somehow duty bound to protect the previous administration. These are questions that I think need to be sir, eight four four nine eight two five eight four buck, we have quite a
show coming. I'm gonna be talking to you about later on about masculinity, about abolishing ice, about because they're trying to change what masculinity is. Here's the version is now masculine is gonna be like wimpy, boring and lame. That's masculine. Now, that's what they want you to think. Uh. We're also going to talk about the Democrats running socialists and how tone deaf that is considering the economy is doing really well. Um, and maybe I'll make fun of California today in terms
of its sanctuary city policies in San Francisco. I'm not sure. I don't know if we'll have enough time, but we'll see. Stay with me. Is there a risk that glad right Putin could have recorded it? That risk is always there. Is there a risk that the soccer ball could have been Why we have an ability to measure those kinds of things. Yeah, I mean it's funny. Don't don't worry Andrew Mitchell. They got it, Okay, They're not gonna take the soccer ball the Russians gave them and just like
leave in the situation room. You mean the one with Wolf litzerd No, I mean the real situation room. I don't think that's gonna happen. I think it's okay. Reminds me man memory laying here. I was, this is a couple of years ago on CNN, And what are the antors? I won't say who. He's actually a nice lady. She doesn't just doesn't seem to read a lot. But I was on her show, or she was I think guest hosting on the show. I don't even know who cares.
But she asked me, she's like so and counter terrorism investigations, how does how does the FBI monitor phone calls. And I said, well, you know, the FBI can if they have a have a warrant, they actually can monitor them in real time. They can record the phone call, they can listen in as it's happening. And she said yes, but what about cell phones? And I never looked at her. I thought, yeah, like, you know, cell phones. She goes stupid questions, Yes, thank you exactly, this is on live TV.
Billedge goes, yeah, cell phones, Yeah, they can do that. She and then she I'll never forget. So she asked me, can the FBI listen in on cell phone calls and record them? And I'm like yeah, and I figured maybe she got lost. Then she goes, are you sure. I'm like, wow, lady, you're really doubling down on this one. I mean, I guess trust the quote expert, which in this case is me on this one. Yeah, the FBI could listen in on cell phone calls. They can do a lot more
than that too. But maybe that's a discussion for another time. But not not a lot of exposure to real world stuff from some of these uh you know, journalist types out there, Not a lot of exposure that was always amazing to me and yeah, do you think they've bugged the soccer ball? You know, think about the think about how that would look if if they discovered that the soccer ball that first of all, I gave it to the kids. So I'm assuming it's gonna stay in like
Baron's room. So if the Russians were listening, and then they'd probably here Melania being like goodlines, bead and and you know him playing lots of I was gonna say Doom. I just aged myself that no one plays Doom anymore, do they? That's not producer Mike. What are the what's the cool video game? If you're a kid now, Like, what's the main call of duty? You don't know, dude, you're supposed you're the cool one here. You don't know. I don't know. John. I can't even hear him right now, John,
you're cool too? Is that a game? I don't you tell me? All Right, we come back. We're gonna take a task to the deep State. Stay with me. He's holding the line for America, buck Sexton, his back to keep this momentum, going to continue this economic miracle. And that's what it is. It's a miracle. What's happened in the last year and a half. We must invest in job training and vocational education. And the fact is that
companies are pouring back into our country. Companies have frankly left ten and twenty years ago and they're coming back, and we need people to work for those companies. We need talented people, we need people with training. That's why in a few moments I will be signing an executive order to establish the National Council for the American Worker. That's the first. Do you think any intelligence agencies US intelligence agencies are out to get you? Well, certainly in
the past it's been terrible. You look at Brennan, you look at Clapper, you look at Hayden, you look at Comy, you look at McCabe, you look at Struck and his lover, Lisa Page. You look at other people in the FBI that have been fired and they are no longer there. Uh. Certainly, I can't have any confidence in the past. But I can have a lot of confidence in the President in the future, because uh, it's getting to be now where we're putting our people in. But in the past, no,
I have no confidence in a guy like Brennan. I think it's a total low life. I have no confidence in Clapper. Take a look at all of the Shenanigans that have gone on, very hard to have confidence in that group. Now, I know you may be thinking, Buck, that's kind of topic whiplash. You're given us right. You got the president once that I can talking about the economy, then you place another another sound bite of him talking about the deep state and some of these former government
partisans who are out to get him. But but I do that because what I started with there, what you hear from the president is what I want the president to be able to focus on. What I want the government to focus on, which growth, prosperity, good governance, and just overall well being of the United States. And what I had to transition to, because that's what the administration has to transition to, is I'm not a Russian puppet. This is all crazy. Russia didn't hand the election to me.
Hillary wouldn't have won. Can we please stop? The deep state is reel. They've got a problem. They have Trump's arrangement syndrome. So much burned time and energy and effort on all that stuff, and it's a real detriment to this country. And that's what I wanted to focus on from what This is not cost free, This isn't oh well, who cares, no big deal? It is actually a big deal. It does matter, in fact, that we have this circumstance where the president is bogged down with all this crazy
stuff and it is frankly crazy. I'm more out of words and I'm saying bonkers and crazy and insane and deranged, and it's it isn't rational though. It's like we're not having an adult conversation anymore about Trump. It says though the people that oppose him, because they have not been able to come up with a a narrative that the American people will go for, have just turned to some kind of psychological disconnect. And that's there. That's their best
means of coping. It's it's a coping mechanism. Pretending that Trump is a Russian agent, pretending that Trump is uh is you know, this terrible hit Larry and figure bringing fascism to this country. Have any of you felt the group of fascisms and Trumpet has been president. I mean, I really want to know if a single person listening to this broadcast coast to coast to coast across the country.
If one person listening feels like they've had to deal with true fascism because of Trump, not because of Democrats, I might look, if you live in a place where you know the recycling police are coming after you, that's on you. I mean, that's Trump's fault. Any of you have had that experience, I really want to know and
I want to hear it. Um. I also do find though that I'm I'm running out of patients, and I worry that that's part of the left strategy here too, that they believe that they can outlast us, that their psychosis will overcome our rationality just through sheer force of will. So I I I worry about that because some of us are just like I don't want to have these fights over the deep state tomorrow. But they won't stop.
The investigation won't stop. And in the moment that we drop our guard, the moment that we no longer have our shields high, we could have a very big problem on our hands. And they may get what they want, which is to not just get even with this president, but to destroy his presidency. Uh to destroy this president, to destroy his presidency, which means stopping the agenda he
was elected for. And so that's where I'm starting. I'm starting to see some people on the right that are just like, you know what, the gloves are off now. I'm I'm not hearing it. I'm not having these people, the Mueller's and the Brennan's and and other well not Mueller, but Brennan and Clapper and others going on TV treated like nonpartisan experts who just have the best interests of the country in mind. No, no, no, Joe de Jonova went on quite a tear and I'm seeing others who
were saying similar stuff. But but some of the people I know who are following this closely are in the media. They've decided that they're no longer gonna be polite about any of this anymore. And here's what here's what Joe had to say. Play three. I want to talk about two people, John Brennan and Leon Panetta. John Brennan is a trader, and I'll tell you why. He's the real trader. What he did and what he has said recently about the President of the United States is despicable. He is
personally responsible for the leaking of unmasked information. He was responsible for the sharing of false information to u S intelligence sources to get FISA warrants. He is personally responsible for the sharing of false information with American intelligence agencies. Leon Panetta should be ashamed of himself after what he did in Benghazi when he kissed Hillary Clinton's Fannie, refused to allow forces to come to the rescue of people, and now he says that he thinks that the Russians
may have something on the President to compromise him. Shame on, Leon Prenetta. May he rot in hell? Wow? I mean this is where we're going, folks. Yep, A Digionova slap doesn't not quite as catchy as a buck slap, but a Digionova slap, uh like, hey, diva, it does sound. I'm sure somewhere along the line there's probably a Grandma Dijanova who makes fantastic handworld pasta. I'm just saying it's likely. Okay,
it's likely, um. But the buck slap there, courtesy of Dijanova was was was poignant, and I think he's tired of it. I think a lot of us are getting tired of this. But he was a United States Attorney for the District of Columbia from three to nineteen. According to uh, the Wikipedia here and now he's a lawyer here in d C. But he's he's sick of it, man,
this whole thing. You know, I would have so much more respect for the Democrats if they would just come out and say, look, we want Bernie Sanders is um. We think that this is a better way for the country for going forward. Here's what we want to do, Here's how we're gonna try to achieve it, and we could have a real battle over ideas. Saying that the president is a puppet of Russia and a trader is
not is un serious and very damaging. Not just damaging because oh it's mean and they're making the president feel but it's not that the president doesn't care. You know that the president's not. He's not losing any sleep because they're saying mean things about him. Well, it coursens the discourse, and I know that feels like, oh my gosh, buck, but Trump Trump he no, no, no, no, I mean between all of us, between just normal folks. It's one thing to say I disagree with your president or disagree
with the president. It's another thing to you can even say I think his policies are really bad. When you say he's a traitor, which you're also doing is tainting all the people who voted for him, who support him, who stand with him. You're suggesting that they all are part of his treason. And there's a really corrosive effect
on this. And you know, you see this with with what's going on right now, where anybody who tries to cross party lines at all, and I'm not even talking about politicians, talking about anybody anywhere runs up against a degree of opposition that is just completely, uh insane in terms of how how elevated it is and how fervent the opposition is. And I'm trying to find this right now. I mean, I know that where to go. Um, whoops. No, it's so Ben Shapiro, whom you know we've had on
the show many times in the past. He's very busy with his own show these days, but he's welcome anytime. He knows that Ben Shapiro is doing great work and the Daily Wire is a really excellent sight. And so I don't even know who it was. I'm trying to find it right now, guys. So I'm sorry that I'm I'm coming up short on the specific the specifics of
the names here. But I saw it earlier today, and you know, you've got Ben Shapiro was brought up by some liberal as like, hey liberals, I'm I'm paraphrasing here. This was a Twitter exchange, Hey liberals, if you want to follow somebody that maybe you can be you know, enlightened by in some way about the other side. You know, if there's anything that here, it is here, it is. Sorry it took me a second. I lost it for a moment. There. Mark du Plas, Okay, I I don't know,
producer Mike. Do you know this guy Mark du Plas is never heard of him before. Yeah, he's a actor and producer on this Oh Hollywood, Oh now I know. I okay. So this guy Mark Duplos put out a tweet and and I have the response tweet where he had what I would call the hostage video tweet that
he put out afterwards. But he initially wrote something like, you know, Ben is somebody that maybe you disagree with that you should listen to him, you know, And and uh, yeah, that's you know, Ben makes makes good faith or arguments. He's not out there to just trash people. He's obviously a very very smart guy of a tremendous matter respect for him, and Matt Walsh is over the Daily Wire. Now. I think Matt Walsh is a great writer and also a really sound thinker. Emily's a naughty who you know
as a friends during the show. Many times she's over Daily Wire. So they're they're just doing really good work over there, and I respect that team, that crew, hm what they're up to. But anyway, this guy du Plas splits out a tweet about this and he gets for merely saying, hey, if you want to see what the other side thinks, He gets his hand blown off metaphorically speaking, I mean he gets crushed. And so this actor producer guy Mike, what's he in anything? I would know? By
the way, did we know what he's in? But it was never heard of him? Yeah? I can't off top of my head. I can't think. You may like know his face if you saw, but he hasn't done anything significant. Okay, um so okay, uh. I don't know who he is. But the point here is that he tweeted out something that was like maybe you could listen to Shapiro, and then he had to tweet this out a day later. I guess to try and save his career. He wrote,
so that tweet was a disaster on many levels. I want to be clear that in no way I endorsed hatred, racism, homophobia, xenophobia, or any such form of intolerance. My goal has always been to spread unity, understanding, and kindness. But I'm going to make mistakes along the way. Sometimes I moved too quickly when I get excited, or failed to do enough research, or don't communicate myself clearly. I'm really sorry. I now understand that I need to be more diligent and careful.
I'm working on that. Oh my gosh, this guy had to write this to save his bacon because he said that Ben Shapiro, somebody you might want to read some stuff from. This is how bad things have gotten, folks. And by the way, Ben Shapiro also appeared in a New Yorker piece recently a total just a total intentional smear. He was there with They mentioned Shapiro, um Roberts. They're like, you know, here are people that speak on college campuses and create controversy. And it was like Milo, Ben Shapiro
and Robert Spencer. First of all, Mill doesn't speak in college campus. Is really more anymore. So. I don't know what that guy's doing, but he's not doing that. Robert Spencer is a white nationalists scum. And Vent Shapiro is a top conservative thinker, pundit. I mean, somebody who's in in in this media space and doing a great job. How could the New Yorker put those three names in the same paragraph, in the same article, unless it was one to refute the other or something. They put them
in the same sentence. This is where this is all going now. They can't win the argument, so they just get The left gets more desperate, the tactics get more underhanded, and the who the The reality here is this is gonna get worse. It's gonna get much worse because I don't have a real argument to make and they don't have the ability to combat conservatism right now in the battlefield of ideas. They just really don't. It's all hatred, it's all mean words, it's all animosity, all right, right,
I know, I know, we gotta calls coming in. I gotta teem we got some calls. We'll talk more next hour. We'll talk about abolishing I and how people talk a tough game about it, but they don't really want to do it. We have much much more on the way. Stay with me, Welcome back team. We've got some calls up here. Let's see what we've got. Who I just dropped my saying, oh yeah, Mike in Fair Hope, Alabama. Hey, Mike,
how you doing it? Great? L tig I called in and had I thought about the situation out there in San Francisco and all of the poop in the street, and occurred to me, that's some real extensive property out there. And uh, at a certain point, people are are gonna start losing some property value, won't they. I'm sure it's affected. Look, I'm guessing that the uh, the defecation situation is primarily in the not ritzy areas. By the way, you know, how much do you ever see the see the show
Full House? Okay, Mike, you can admit it. Come on. We all love Uncle Jesse And yeah, that's right. He's a very honest man. We've all seen Full House is a nice show. That house in Full House in San Francisco. Now, I think it's worth four million dollars, so that'll give you a sense. And it's just like a house four million dollars. Uh, And they no longer are allowed to take tours of it or something. There's something that came
up recently. Anyway, the poop on the streets. Um. There's probably in areas where there's not a lot of rich folks, but citywide it's obviously a problem. The thing about living in a city is even if the bad area, so to speak, are the only ones affected by stupid policies or or the not. So, you know, wealthy areas are
affected by dumb policies. Everyone has to use public transit, right, everyone has to walk around the park every there there are some places of shared experience, even if you live in a four million dollar mansion like the full House House, um,
where it does affect you. So, I don't know. The Bay Area has the most expensive real estate in some places, I think in the whole country, which is amazing to me because I had to be honest you San Francisco is beautiful, but I wouldn't want to live there, not my gem. And if I'm going to California, I want the warm weather. I want Newport Beach, you know, I want someone. I want the o C. Sorry, Mike, I'm I'm starting to dream out loud here, Buddy, How are
things down in Alabama right now? They're really hot. We're supposed to get some rain, but it seems to be holding off. But it has been too hot to do in your work in the yard. Well, I hear you, man, We'll stay. You stay, stay hydrated, hydra graduate. That's what I was told they say at West Point. I don't know if that's true, but somebody told me that. Who
would know. Thanks for calling in Mike. By the way, Producer Mike, very important to stay hydrated, I will have you know, very important, especially in these hot You promise, all right?

Buck Sexton Mission, decoding the news and disseminating information with actionable intelligence. Make no mistake American. Ready, you're
a great American again. This is the Buck Sexton Show. Analysts. No, I've been consistent. I get asked this a lot. I am do not believe special counsel motors on witch hunt. I think it's a professional investigation conducted a man that I've known to be a straight shooter in all my interactions with him. That's undeniable that the Russians are taking the lead on this. Basically, they are the ones that are trying to undermine our basic values that divide us
with our allies. They're the ones that are trying to wreck havoc over their election process. We need to call them out on that. It's critical that we do so um and to then take steps to make sure that they are not able to do this with the election
coming up. Welcome back to the Bucks Exton Show. You know you have the Director of National Intelligence there, the d n I, which is the government's reaction after nine eleven to the massive intelligence failure of preventing nine eleven was to add many layers of intelligence bureaucracy onto the existing bureaucracy, the best example of which is in fact, the Director of National Intelligence D. D and I. But there you have the D and I such as he is saying that Russia is trying to reak havoc on
our election process, and right before that, you Christopher Ray of the FBI is saying it's not a witch on. So we just threw that in there too. That's the latest from the FBI. The bureaucracy protects the bureaucracy, no surprise, but on the wreaking havoc on our elections. I keep saying this, and I don't know why others don't really understand this too. I know some other conservatives do, but I don't know why more people aren't saying, oh, wow,
you're right. There's no way for us to be able to ever trust elections again if we really think that what happened in the last election was you know, election meddling. Pearl Harbor, as so many people have said this week, so many major publications have written this week, if just
a few Facebook sock puppets, right, fake accounts. If some Twitter trolls, some memes bread on social media, and a couple of email phishing scams are enough to consider an election tainted, we will never have And this is the world the Democrats are creating for us all to live in. If we allow them to, we will never have another election free of the that that uneasy feeling that maybe this is a legitimate, maybe this is not something we
can trust. And if Putent's real goal is to just undermine our our democratic norms and our you know, our
our whole system, what could be better than that. It's not just the election, it's all elections, and there's nothing they can do to stop this unless unless Facebook can find a way to prevent people from making you know, a fake account, which you know, verifying every single individual on Twitter, first of all, be insanely slow to their growth and expensive for them, and they're not gonna do it. But unless Twitter could find a way to do it, and facebooks are both of them, any of them, all
these different social media platforms, you can't stop this. And this notion that even if Putin wanted to stop it, you might just have some Russians now with they just want to get you know, this is how they have a good time, you know, about drunk vodka, and we will mess with the medical election and nothing's gonna happen to them. No one's gonna no one's gonna hand them over, no one's gonna get sent to prison for it. And
there's so much plausible deniability in this stuff. There's so many ways that you can engage in this kind of
election meddling, and that it's never really gonna stop. And I just note that, you know, for me, one of the big parts of all this that never gets addressed sufficiently because they have no answer to it is if this was such a big deal and it was so critical, the Obama administration had an obligation, an obligation two, you know, hit the fire alarm, you know, yell at the house was on fire, tell the American people what was going on, and come what may politically, but it wasn't a big
enough deal in their minds for them to do that, largely because they assumed Hillary was going to win, which is really the critical political turning point of this whole issue. They're not worried about the sanctity of democracy, the tragedy of the Russian intrusion into the election for Democrats is not that, you know that we have this sacred thing of electing officials and our constitution, the genius of the founding,
all that's at stake. No, No, what upsets them so much is that Hillary lost, a Democrat, did not become president and Donald Trump won. And they think that calamitous. They think that is the equivalent of being hit by a massive bombing raid or a huge terrorist attack, where you know what, I picked your historical catastrophe. But they only think it because of Trump's win. They would not
have thought that if Hillary had one. We know this, and that's how we get the clearest insight into what they really think and what they really believe on this issue, or they did believe. You know what's a fair assessment of all of this. You know, they're they're saying that Trump, you know, this is a big thing. Oh, they still targeting us? Are they still targeting us? This came up yesterday.
Russia is never not going to be targeting us. Russia is not going to stop trying to influence American politics. Think about how important American positions and ideas and are to the whole world, the whole global economy, into Russia and all of its different interests outside of its borders, even in its borders. We're the global superpower. They're they're they're gonna try to do everything they can to steer us in directions that they want. That's not gonna stop.
But if we allow them to get so far into our heads that we really think that they can have any outcome on the overall trajectory of a national election, or they can change so many Americans minds with these cloppy and slow you know, just I just said cloppy, didn't I Sloppy and clumsy was what I was trying to say there, But I just made up a new word, these cloppy, sloppy and clumsy mixed together, Uh, social media attacks.
We're giving them way too much credit, folks, and we are opening ourselves up to much more self doubt as a nation about our elections and what's going on with them than we should. And Democrats don't mind. They think that's a small price to pay for getting back at Trump. Let's talk about the left and socialists and abolish ice in just a moment. I love dogs, You love dogs, but you know if your pup has been kept up inside all day. Guess what when you get home, you
open those doors, let them run around the yard. You might have a problem on your hands, digging and what do you do about that? Right? Because if your dog can dig under the fence, it can get out, and then you have to run around try to grab them, or even worse, could put the dog in jeopardy. Right, you gotta make sure your dog is safe. Dig Defense takes care of this problem. You'll never have to think
about it again. Dig Defense extend the protection of your fence underground, so no amount of digging is gonna let your pets out of the yard or let predators into the yard.

dig dot Com again. Dig Defense the solution de pets digging under your fence and right now if you go, you can use promo code buck for ten percent off in the month of July again promo code buck at dig Defense. Stop the dig dot com. We are committing human rights abuses on this border and separating children from their families, and that you know, is part of the structure of the agency. We can replace it, and we can replace it with the Humane Agency. I don't think
ICE today is working as intended. You think you should get rid of the agency. I believe that it has become a deportation force, um And I think you should separate the criminal justice from the immigration issues. And I think you should reimagine ICE. ICE was established in two thousand three, right at the same time as the Patriot Act, the a U m F, the Iraq War, and we look back at a lot of that time and legislation as a as a mistake. Now, I believe the moral
character of the United States is at stake. So for me, it wasn't a question of whether I should go down there. If we have to have a rapid response, and I think every day that we go on, especially a day when something that heinous happens, we have to occupy all of it. We need to occupy every airport, we need to occupy every border, we need to occupy every ICE office until those kids are back with their parents. Period, occupy, occupy. What does that remind you of, Folks whole streets are
streets Occupy Wall Street. I remember first real field assignment of my media career covering Occupy Wall Street. I was there for every major occupied protests, every major occupy thing in New York City. I was there the day it started. I was there the day the NYPD came in and had to club a bunch of filthy hippie and arrest them and get them out of Zukkati Park, right. I was there for all of it. But the rhetoric has returned. You heard there at the very end. Then that was
Alexandra Occazio Cortes. She of, yeah, like people like the unemployment so low because like they have so many, like two jobs a person, so it's like double job for unemployment stuff and things. Yeah, what do you think of Israel and the Palestinians Occasio Cortes, Yeah, like Israel bad and Palestine and Palestinian um good because daily co's and huff posts say so, okay, all right, we'll take it fair enough. But anyway, she was saying there occupied occupies.
She knows what that is harkening back to. And this is all about mobilization for the progressive left. Uh, this is all about what they're planning to do going into these of terms, and this call to abolish ICE, I've been saying all along, this is just it's such an example of the protest culture that Democrats have embraced that is largely a a brainless and thoughtless exercise. Abolish ICE
and replace it with an agency that's more humane. Are you going to just fire all those federal employees and then rehire them with different uniforms to do the same job, because none of them will say, well, we shouldn't have any customs or border enforcement right because that's that is open borders. At that point they're actually just oh, wait, you mean that's what they really want, but they won't say it. What a shock, But they can't say that.
They won't just come out and let us all know that that is the real purpose of what they are after. So instead you have this dance around if abolish ice, abolish ice, and they're they're channing this going around abolish ice um and then when when they also there's a tell here when they say they want the criminal justice component of immigrations and customs enforcement to be separated from the immigration one, Uh, they don't think that being in
the country illegally is illegal. That's what this really comes down to. They this is why you see places like San Francisco that are going from sanctuary cities to sanctuary cities on steroids, where they now allow people to vote for what effects some local government expenditures. I mean school board. I know, it's like local dog catcher. It's not that big a deal, but it's gonna become a big deal.
And school board in some places really doesn't matter. But you're hearing this, and I've been telling you for a while that immigrations and Customs enforcement abolition is a nonsense chant by unserious people. And sure enough today they they put it to the test, right, and and you can tell there's uh, you know this is this is where you get a little bit of grand standing on both sides here. But there were some votes today, Oh my gosh,
some votes today in the House of Representatives. And the first one was a resolution backing US immigrations and Customs enforcement. Republican leaders did this to show what they stand for. So ya, Republicans, you don't want to abolish ice. Uh. The vote was two hundred and forty four to thirty five, with a hundred and thirty three Democrats voting present. Think about that for a moment, shall you shall we? Democrats won't even agree. Democrats in Congress won't even agree with
their Republican counterparts. Now, I know they'll say that this was a show vote, which it was. I'm not I'm not naive, right, but you really, you guys have a chance to just go on the record. That's what this is. Going on the record? Are you four against ice? Democrats? Abstain? Abstain. This is pretty amazing when when you get down to it, and there were some other Democrats that I know, actually we're trying to push for an actual abolition of of ice.
But that's not gonna happen. That's not gonna happen. Um, you know this, This is pretty amazing to me, pretty amazing to see how this is this is playing out. That you can have people who are elected at the national level and they think that it is to the benefit of their party going into the midterms to take
this position is truly you know, Democrats. If Democrats were just normal, we'd have problems, folks, because look that the Republicans haven't really executed in the Congress on a lot of the agenda, that there are places where they're disappointing. We're gonna have a trillion dollar deficit next year, a trillion dollars. That's Obama level deficit. I no, no one wants to hear it. I'm like, I'm like, Captain Wow, I'm no Fun, I get it, but we gotta keep
it real here. And yeah, you know, that's that's something that Republicans are not doing well. They're just not getting it done. But you know, Senator of Fun, I think had some sage advice for the political opposition your play clip nine. I think that the Democrat Party is drifting and their rudderless right now, and they seem to be
at least driven by the far left. And in the ex senative course, you've got people like Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren and others who are pulling them in that direction. And what it does is it makes it that much harder I think for moderate Democrats or Democrats who at least have a little bit of common sense from being pushed out into these, uh, these positions that are gonna make it very very difficult for them to to get elected in parts of the country where you have voters
who are center or center right. I mean, these positions are completely out of the mainstream, and I think it's it's gonna be very, very difficult if you're a candidate Democrat, candidate who has a primary not to be pushed way out there in that direction. It's gonna be very hard to get back to the middle and win a general election. Yeah.
I cannot remember, and I really mean this. I cannot remember the last time I heard a national level Democrat making the case for an economic issue of importance to the American people that was not some left wing fantasy. I can't remember it. I'm not even hearing them go to the well and things like minimum wage, which doesn't work the way people say it does and it is not as good as people say it is and all. But but you know what, it's popular. It's popular people
minimum wage. People like it, right, raise the minimum wage. I mean, sorry, I kept saying minim wage. Raising the minimum wage is popular issue. You know, give workers more, give workers more. They're not even going to that. I don't know if they. I'm starting to think that Trump arrangement syndrome. I have also made it impossible for them to even pull off the usual head fakes against the American people to make them think that they have any
connection to the issues that matter to normal people. You know, whether there are thirty seven genders or not on a federal application for employment, that that doesn't matter to normal people. It doesn't. Normal people don't care. Okay, climate change as much as the elite's whine about it, normal people don't really care. They know. Look at all the polling, it's like ten percent of the population that really cares about climate change. Health Care people care, but not hear anything
Democrats about that. Immigration people care, and all Democrats can talk about is amnesty and essentially incentivizing more illegal immigration. I don't think that's really what a majority of the American people are on board for. So I do think you end up sitting around thinking to yourself, what are they gonna do? Abolish ice? Is that really the pitch? Democrats won't even stand behind it, but they won't stand it against it either, because they are a bunch of quizzlings.
A bunch of quizzlings. Indeed, by the way, for those who are wont because that came up a bunch this week and you're probably thinking, you're like, where does the term Quizzling come from a fun little history tidbit here. Vidkin Quizzling was Norwegian Norwegian politician during the occupation of
the country during World War Two. So when the Nazis occupied Norway, it's kind of like calling somebody like Visa the Vichy France government a Quizzling is some and Churchill referred to him in such a disparaging way that it became its own, its own term. But that's where it's Vidcan Quizzling, the Norwegian or military officer, and Paula Titian who was running the country under the essentially a collaborator in a way with the uh Nazi force. All right,
I've got much more teams, Stay with me. He's back with you now, because when it comes to the fight for truth, the buck never stops making a mistake in putting forth candidates that labeled themselves democratic socialists when at this moment look at small or large business sentiment or consumer confidence, and Americans feel like capitalism is working for them.
I believe in markets, but I also believe that markets have to have rules, Otherwise rich and powerful just keep sucking up all the value and everybody else ends up eating dirt. I think the big parts of this economy are not working for the American people. When saying, hey, the unemployment rate has gone down, Uh, that's a great thing.
But you know when people are working at minimum wage jobs that won't support them, or they're working two, three or four jobs to try to pay the rent and keep food on the table, then simply saying the unemployment figures have gone down just doesn't get you there. You know, there's so much going on there. You've got, uh, Stephanie Rule, Oh, I've got to say. I kind of like, Actually, side
don't but I don't know her. I like her work, but she's over on what was that the MSNBC, so the furthest left mainstream cable network, and she has She starts out by asking a very important question, I mean a question that Democrats are gonna have to stare right in the face real soon, which is the econmy is booming. Economy is incredibly strong and out g d P growth is better than it was during the Obama years by far. I mean, this is the economy is doing really well.
Unemployment record lows lowest it's been and I don't know thirty or forty years or something. You don't hear anything
about this. Remember, Obama had to win reelection in with a crap economy, and because of the medium, because of Romney and the binder is full of women and all the other unfair stuff they piled on romney shoulders, they were able to, you know, give give Obama four more years, right, eight years of Obama, despite the fact that there were a lot of metrics in the economy where people said, if unemployment is still at you know, X rate, there's
no way Obama can win. Guess what it was at still at a at a high level in any one. I mean, there were a number of areas where you would think that objectively, the poor performance that Obama had had in the presidency would have been a prohibition on a second term for him. But that's not what happened. They managed to get around that. But now you have an economy under Trump that is it is roaring. In fact, the economy is so good that you don't hear about it.
That really speaks volumes, doesn't it. There is a deafening silence when it comes to criticism of the economy because Democrats have no message for the American people on this. They've got the usual class warfare stuff. They're gonna try that. But we heard that during the Obama years and it didn't make anything better for anyone. It just was a lot of excuses. Now things are actually going well. People are making more money, the markets are growing, wealth wealth
is increasing in this country overall, which helps everyone. The country is getting wealthier. And you look at this and you think, this is the time when the progressives are the only ones in the Democratic Party that seemed to have any any momentum, any energy, any enthusiasm, excitement, right that the Bernie Sanders wing, that's where maybe Bernie's back. The Bernie Sanders wank of the Democratic Party is the
only one that's getting anyone energized right now. You know, the polos Seas and the you know the other the Schumer's there. The people that fall into that category, they're gonna maybe cruise to reelection in the mid terms or a lot of them obviously aren't up in the mid terms. But there's no excitement, there's no interest. It's the socialists that get people interested. And this is where I have to say that the lack of I don't know, the lack of a good well, the media doesn't help on this.
But also, you know, kids aren't learning enough about this stuff in schools these days. People just don't know the history of socialism and they don't know the theory of socialism. They don't know the radical foundations of Marxism and class warfare and what it really involves. They don't know what's happening countries that have become socialists. And you will have you know, the one thing you'll hear from people, and
I want to arm you with this right now. You'll say, well, look at Venezuela, which, as I've told you, was a tragedy of errors on many levels economically, but one of the primary ones. One of the reasons Venezuela is like the eighth circle of Hell right now, is because they decided to set price controls to benefit the poor. That was that. That was the at least the ostensibly why they were doing it. There are a lot of other reasons, and there's a lot of kickbacks in. Venezuela is also
a narco state, which no one talks about. I think the number three person in the government is sanctioned by the Treasury Department for being a cocaine and heroin trafficker. Folks. Okay, so you've got a narco state as well. I just you don't hear people talking about it. I can't tell you why. I don't know why. I guess the media is just not interested in that. But you'll bring up Venezuela and they'll bring up oh well, what about Oh well,
you mean Sweden. It's such a dystopia. And then I always say to them, you guysn't understand Sweden is not a socialist country. They don't they don't know this, they don't understand this. We're not socialists. In fact, Sweden and Denmark and Norway are very friendly to entrepreneurship, to foreign investments, to businesses when it comes to regulation. Sweden, the Nordic countries which are always pointed to as the example of, you know, how how great socialism can be, they're not
socialist countries. They are high tax countries with a large welfare state, which is a which is a different thing, which is a different thing. It's not the government saying we're in charge of how everybody makes money and the distribution of goods and who's going to be doing what
for whom and how. It's not the government picking winners and losers, the government saying, Okay, make all the money you can make, my fellow countrymen, we're going to set aside this amount for social welfare programs, and we're going to set the tax rate at this I popping jaw dropping them out. That's what those countries have. And then
you know there's such an ignorance of this. You know, in Sweden, they're not saying bread is going to cost the dollar, and they're not saying that, uh, they're going to there's going to be an intentional penalization of the rich for the purposes of transferring money to the poor. They're not doing land seizures and redistributing it to the people.
That's what they do in socialists, truly socialist countries. But you know what the other thing is that they won't tell you there's not enough money with the rich for the rich to carry the burden of the welfare state that you have in a place like Sweden. We already have a pretty robust welfare state in this country, but there's not enough money. If you tax just the quote rich, let's say, people who make what a half a million dollars a year or more, Uh, you can jack the
rates way up. You're not going tonna pay for free college for everyone, free health care for everyone, no way. If you want what Sweden has, you have to tax the middle class at a very high rate. And this is the little This is the achilles he of the Bernies Okazia Cortez wing of the Democratic Party. Right now, they won't tell you that, but they can keep saying the rich, the rich, the rich. There's simply not enough money.
And if they, by the way, and trying to squeeze that money out of the rich, they'll say and from corporations too. They'll create all kinds of downstream problems with the rest of economy problems and hiring problems, in wages,
problems across the board. But if you really want free college, free healthcare, medicare for all, all of that, the only way to even have a serious conversation about it is if people making thirty to a hundred and fifty K folks are gonna pay forty fifty sixty percent of their income in taxes, in actual income taxes. Do you think that's a winning message. Do you think the Democrats could really come out and and make that pitch that that the middle class is gonna have to have huge tax
raises too. I don't think so. I think that's a big issue for them. So this is why it's just Santa Claus, it's just rhetoric. It's you know, this is what Democrats say to make themselves feel good, like they have an important message, like they have something really to
to share with their constituencies. And to have Elizabeth warrener and Elizabeth Warren is functioning economic illiterate, and the fact that she was in charge of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, she was, I should say not in charge of it, but she was the brainchild it was. It was the
brainchild of Elizabeth Warren in some capacity. Does not speak well for that organization, which, as we know, has also been trying to become a kind of a subset of the deep state with the government like the Trump administration somehow not in charge of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, even though it's a federal executive branch agency. So somehow I don't really get that. Um. But I'm telling you the fact that the Democrats are running socialist right now,
and that that's the tip of the spirit. They're only prayer folks, And I'm gonna talk more to you about the midterms and what I think is coming up in a second here. The Democrats only prayers to run candidates that have a kind of Republican twang to them, have a I feel like a basic essence of republicanism. And then you find out more about them, and oh, I guess what, this is a Democrat. That's the only way
they have a prayer of taking back the House. If they run as the leftist progressives that they are as a party, it is going to be a very sad fall for the Democrat Party. Joe Biden says he'll make a decision by January. I dream about Biden. That's a dream. Look, Joe Biden ran three times, he never got more than one percent, and President Obama took him out of the I've been cheap and everybody was shocked that he did.
I'd love to have it be Biden. I think I'd like to have any one of those people that we're talking about. You know, there's probably the group of seven or eight right now. I'd really like to I'd like to run against any one of them. But Biden never by himself, could never do anything. You know, there are very few people that have the ability to uh, slice and dice somebody quite the way that President Trump does.
You know, we think of Biden now because of the way the media propped him up during the Obama two terms. We think of Biden as as a politician of some or we've been told, I should say, to think of him as a politician of some national significance. You know, people look at him and he's he's popular. You think, why is Joe Biden so popular when he's, for one, a guy who didn't really do very much during the
Obama years. I can't point to any thing that he was working on or in charge of that was significant and that made people's lives better or that. Okay, so no real accomplishment for three years, then years Oh wait a second, the Obama administration. So the media was completely in the tank for Obama, and by extension, that meant they were also in the tank for Joe Biden. Oh now, it all makes sense, right, They were always and you think back to some of his comments, and he had
these gaps and they was, oh, crazy, uncle Joe. You know, he's just making those comments. And we all would on the conservative side at least recognize that he was making comments that if a conservative made it would have been game over. I mean, it would have been big, big problems. But because he's Joe Biden, you know, America's blue collar Joe and all this stuff, somehow they were able to turn this into Oh, he's so likable, and I don't think he's like, well, I think he's a very Remember
he's also to put y'all back in chains. Remember he said that. I don't think he's likable. And when you look at his actual results, Okay, sure, he's a senator from Delaware. Hi, I'm in Delaware, But you know, he ran for president a couple of times and was really just ahead of like Kucinich. I it was was in that same conversation, So it was not a serious national
contentent with presidency at all. And I think Trump, because he's Trump, because he doesn't buy the bs that's being piled up in front of him all the time by the media, he sees what Biden would be as a as a competitor, and he's like, yeah, this is great.
By way. I think he's completely right. I think Biden gets crushed by Trump if he runs in, gets crushed by him, and that that also makes me think of something else here which I've I've been saying to you and I want to keep saying to you because feels like it's a ways off. But the mid terms are not were almost in August already, right, The summer is absolutely flying by, and you're getting pieces that are out
there in places like the New York Times. This is just today, and this is what they're writing, a Democratic blue wave. Don't forget the Republicans. Big Hill one seems like an unstoppable force, but a GOP structural advantage may represent an immovable object. Now that's kind of a boring ish headline with its very tortured analogies and everything else.
But uh, the truth is that what we have seen so far with Trump's arrangement syndrome, if the Democrats do not at least take control of the House this November, what we have seen so far with trump arrangement syndrome, it's going to somehow get worse. And I don't know what that means, but I worry about the country. Now I'm stuck between you don't want to give into the temper tantrum of the Democrats, of course, of course, and say, well, I mean maybe it's better if we have divided government.
You're gonna hear a lot of that, folks, A lot of Republicans have divided government. That sounds great. If Trump is going to follow through with the rest of the agenda, he needs control of the House and the Senate. In fact, would be great if we could pick up seats, although I don't think that that is likely. But even if they just maintain majorities in both, we have a very good chance of Trump, of Trump being able to implement
more of the agenda. But I really mean, what does the country feel like the day after the Republicans uh, the day after the Republicans manage with Trump as the leader of the party. Two and with two years of Trump as president, who is worse than Pearl Harbor, worse than Crystal Locked, the fascist, the Nazi, a racist, a sexual assault, I mean, all these things, all these things
they say. If after two years of that, the Republicans maintain control of government, what do the Democrats tell themselves at night? You know, how do they keep themselves feeling safe and warm in their progressivism if not only Trump gets elected and they say, oh, it's Russia, it was all Russia. Really, is it? Gonna be all Russia again in the mid terms. By the way, I am worried that that's what we're getting ready for, meaning that Russia is now going to be the excuse for every election
loss the Democrats have. And this is a really psychologically speaking, this is really toxic. I mean, this is when people start to lose it, when they use the conspiracy as the justification for the things that are going wrong in their lives. Then you have to really worry about folks.
And I think that we are getting We're gonna see what that's like if the Democrat because I'm telling you there's analysis right now when they're saying, you know what, Democrat, So this is the New York Times, Democrats, you may not win the House. And and I saw this was from John up pot Or, it's Potterates. Sorry. A Democratic Party failure, sorry, a Democratic failure to flip the House in November will trigger a political panic the likes of which I'm not sure we've seen in the past half century.
I completely agree that's what I've been saying. That's from John Potter, It's but I completely agree it will be dogs and cats living together, mass hysteria. And I think that that's what we're heading for, folks. So if you think it's been bad with all the Russia, Russia and collusion and craziest up to this point, when Democrats failed to take the House this fall, it's going to get crazy. Buck Sexton remission. Decoding the news and disseminating information is
actionable intelligence. Make no mistakes, America of the Great, You're a great American again. This is the Buck Sexton Show. Former CIA analysts. No masculine adjective having qualities or appearance traditionally associated with men, especially strength and aggressiveness. Some of the synonyms are macho, manly, muscular, well built, red blooded, red blooded, my goodness, strapping, strong, brawny, powerful. I know for a lot of your like that sounds pretty good.
What's the problem None of these really sound like me. I think that definition masculine isn't what some guys like to hear. Is a little scary. It's too small for something so big. It's what about trying to get people to con and be a certain way. I think that's what gets us in troubles. When we say that there's only one way to be mad, I mean there's not one way to be a man. But there's something generally speaking, we can all agree on that is manly, right or
apparently not? According to this video, you define your own mess, you define who you are. For me, being masculind is being honest. This is the body that I have, This is what I know. So to me, this is what a man is for me? What does it mean to me to be masculine? Um, it's more a question of what does it mean to be human? No? See see that would be what does it mean to be human? See? This is like the the lunacy of the left strikes again.
That was a promo video, it's not gotten millions of views and listens, put out by a clothing company called Bonobosh, And I will full disclosure, I actually actually like their clothing. So I think that they make some pretty comfis stuff. I mean, not as good as nine line apparel, all right, it's not as good as Peter Millard, but it's it's
pretty good clothing. And they made this video about masculinity and they get a bunch of guys who you know, some of them clearly or I guess you'd say beta male types and kind of like glyphic masculine as well, do you know if you could lift up both of your heads at the same tad ads speak, you are masculine. I mean, there's really this. What they're doing is they're redefining masculinity. I also think it's so instrument at the beginning of that video. It's so interesting to hear how
they are kind of strengthened the reality and aggressiveness and it. Yeah, you see, this is another time when one the left is playing games with definitions, and two this is an effort to eradicate gender distinctions. That is a real full cultural I was gonna say full frontal, but full cultural assault. That's what's going on here. They really believe in this. They believe this nonsense that there's no difference between the genders.
They believe that they can just explain this away when there are the difference between men and male and female. Masculinity versus femininity is rooted in science and biology. Testosterone brings about different physical and yes, different psychological characteristics than estrogen. For example, I know women and men estrogen testosterone both, but the more testosterone you have, the well they're they're there are clear effects on how you look and how
you act. Right, this is why men and women are different. Men and women are different. They can keep saying that's not true, but they're wrong, and they are going against not just science but common sense with this. But more to the point, this notion of masculinity and toxic masculinity. There is a phrase you'll hear and clearly the way they started out this conversation for this Nobo's video, they
think toxic masculinity is a thing. And you know, I just see this as we no longer even share the same ideals, you know, Yeah, do I wish that I was six five and could bench press three hundred pounds? Uh and some of your like book, I can do that, But you know, do I wish I could do that? And do I wish I was you know, seven percent body fat? Uh? Yeah, all that's true, right, I wish I was six five seven percent body fat and like an Adonis, But I'm not. I do with the reality
of men. That doesn't mean I don't try to make myself stronger, doesn't mean I don't try to put in the work, and it also doesn't mean that I reject the other parts of masculinity that they talk about in this video, like you know, aggressiveness. Yeah, I think some aggressiveness is a good thing. Aggression has an important place in our data that has to be controlled and you have to understand why. But aggression and drive are very
much tied together. Dare I even say aggression and libido are even tied together, meaning that there is a degree of going out there and trying to you know, trying to achieve, trying to get status, trying and aggressiveness pushes that, right, Your aggression to be you know, your your testosterone fuel desire to be a certain kind of person is also tied to your very basic biological need you want to procreate. And you know, isn't it funny how you talk about
this old book, people start to get all weird. This is this is our most basic reality. Biology is our most basic reality. I'm not saying it's our full reality. I'm not saying it's more important than spirituality, uh and our connection with God, but it's the basis of you know, this is who we are right now, and this is what we're dealing with every day. And there is really an effort underway to redefine that's what they're doing here,
redefine masculinity. Uh, try to convince people that what we think of as traditional masculine virtues, Yes, there's that word. Virtues are somehow now bad right, strength and red blooded and and aggression and all these things that they're supposed to be considered bad things. You know, if we didn't have testosterone, if men didn't have the desire to yes,
to struggle, to fight and to achieve. I don't mean to fistfight, but I mean to fight for those things that are important to you in life, we would not have had a lot of the human progress that we've had, Right, we wouldn't be where we are. These are very important things. Uh. And I just find it fascinating how much the left contorts itself two eliminate this from well from our consciousness
but also just from our day to day lives. Uh. You know, this notion that we should celebrate essentially Beta mailed them. You know, we should all aspire to be like writers for vox dot com or something. No, now this is it's look, it's kind of like when you see on the left they'll start to say, well, we shouldn't judge people at all by their appearance. Okay, we can all say that, but human attraction and sexuality are
are hardwired into our brains. And while we can all tell each other we don't care what anybody else looks like, that's just not that's not reality. Now, a person of substance and worth puts all that into context and controls those impulses and understands that it's not the most important thing at all. But to say that you're just going to ignore it because we're being told to ignore it,
that's that's completely preposterous. And to say that to say that masculinity is now toxic are our traditional definition of it as toxic and it's bad is Look, I think it's dangerous for society. I really do. I think this is It's not just that I disagree with them. I think that they're promoting ideas that are damaging in the
long run. We want people who we want, we want end to believe in being men, and we want men to have an aspiration to be strong, to be dependable, to be courageous, to be virtuous, to be trustworthy, and aggression and masculinity and testosterone and these ideas that are oh, these are those all play a role in that. Otherwise we're just all a bunch of little you know, little soft handed lumps that are just hope we could come to a consensus. No bad, look, I get it. Not
everybody's a door kicker. Not everybody gets to be a Navy seal. I didn't get to be one, right, I mean, we're not saying that we all have to measure up to some ideal of super masculinity, but we we are going to have certain notions of what we're trying to achieve as men, and that should be celebrated in society. You know, strength and discipline and endurance and drive and desire, the the this is critical for for humanity. I really
mean this. Once again, you've got progressive. It's just I know, like it's a clothing it's a video for a clothing line, and who really cares. But it's part of a broader, very powerful cultural trend right now where they are kicking at the load bearing walls of civilization and they're they're free to do it, but I'm free to say that their ideas are wrong. They're ignoring what is obvious and what is true, and they are undermining truth at every turn.
And when it comes to male female differences, masculinity, biology, they are so anti science. One of the great ironies of the of the left right now is they're actually so opposed to what is observable and demonstrable via science and scientific experiment and evidence, and they just don't care. You will not have beta males, just like you're never going to erase the advantage that attractive people have in life because we are human beings. We we we are
not that evolved, will never be that evolved. You will never eliminate are general preference for men who strive, who fight, who achieve, And that's not a bad thing. You know, that's not a bad thing. But this is a whole other conversation. Maybe it would be great on this one would be if we could get Professor Jordan Peterson to join. We've had him on the show a couple of times before. I think we should reach out. And I know this is an area where he discussed He discusses this and
he says this. You know, I'm just gonna tell you from my own experience, I see this with a lot of women who are who have been conditioned to think these are my friends. Now, these are peers of mine who are now in their middle eight thirties. They've been conditioned to think that, you know, they they there should be no gender roles, and they should they should pursue their careers every bit as aggressively as men, the same
kinds of careers as men. They are not on a any kind of a timeline for having children, and you know, the same, the same, the same absolute equality with men in every sense, irrespective of biology. And there's a lot of misery that comes from this, and I see a lot of unhappiness, a lot of what does this really all mean? Okay, I'm maybe on partner track or maybe I'm a VP at the firm, But does this make me happy? Do I feel fulfilled as a as a
woman doing this? So I'm sure say yes, But a lot of the ones that I know, and I'm speaking just from what I see and observe the answers no. And then I also see this in their dating lives. You know, why can't I find a good guy? Why can't I find the guy that well? What are the virtues that you seek? Are you? Are you looking for somebody who would would pass the political checklist, the ideological
checklist they'd set up for what you should date. If you you know, if you go to vox dot Com or huffing to post on one of these places, because that that doesn't mesh well with the average female psychology of of what they want to be paired with us and made look. Men are supposed to be the protectors. Oh, I know this is so backwards and right now, a lot of the ladies listening like buck, I could beat you an arm wrestling match. That's not the point, Ladies.
Men are opposed to have a certain role based on their gender they are. We can fight this, we can argue about it, but it's a losing battle, and it's a destructive one in the process too. And I see that destruction, and I see that misery, and that's why I won't be silent about it. So they can sit they can sit around and make videos about how masculinity is whatever they want to say it is. Masculinity is essentially being a human being, which is not masculine. It's
being a human being. But they can try this redefining and and this ignoring of what is so obvious and so observable, but it is doomed to failure and doomed to a lot of to dooming a lot of people to misery in the process. You know, but Nobo stick to clothing, lead the social commentary to others. That's what I would say about this um. And we've got a
whole lot more coming up, so stay with me. I won't answer your question because you get your opening statement, which was how horrible it is Donald Trump, I was talking about that's what you said. You said, you know you said that when it was here end up murdering the children of American saying, you know what's hard when the present week United Sanctuary to beat the hell out of you. That's uh, that kind of went off the rails a little bit. I guess you had Whoopee versus Judge.
You know, I gotta tell you, I don't know. You know, those two ladies in the wrong way, both very fierce. You know, that's that's not a that's not a squabble i'd want to get in the middle of. We had judged Janine on the show earlier this week. She is she is feisty man, She does not mess around. She knows your stuff. And uh and you look Whoopee. He doesn't give an inch either. So that was quite a you can see they're like, okay, time we got a break. They decided it was time to time to bail out
on on that one. Uh. And I also I always think these shows, these shows where you have an audience that that are political shows, you always get the whole like cheering, cheering for one side and drowning out the other. And I don't think that a studio audience for a political debate show is usually a good idea. And they haven't at the at the Bill Maher Show too, which I haven't watched in a very long time. I think I haven't watched that show in years now. I just
couldn't just honestly, I just couldn't take it anymore. So many of the panels were just you know, yeah, like Trump is Hitler and they and even before that it was you know, Obama's God, and it just wasn't it
just wasn't really that that interesting to me. But you know, you have this this uh, this point in in our discourse, and I'm gonna I'm gonna keep bringing it up, folks, where yes, the the Democrats, they they think that they've made their case and the media believes they're on really solid ground with all this stuff about you know, Trump is a liar and Trump is the worst, and Trump is so bad, and there's all this there's all this stuff, you know, when you look at it, um, But then
when you actually get down into the nuts and bolts of the situation, when you look at it a little more like, wait a second, what's really going on here? Uh? Here, here's some fun facts for you folks, because you know you've got that audience, you get whoopee, they're like, wow, Trump is the worst, trup is Heitler. Here's a an axios pole that is from hold on, let me see who we have here from today? All right, here's a pole.
And you know what pauls are an interesting snapshot. I'm not gonna say that they they're not the beyond end all and I usually think that, especially on cable news, like all right, let's just do some polls. You know, it could be kind of a lazy way for analysts to talk about numbers and not really have to make a point. But some you know, data is also necessary
and data is useful. Here's what it says. Uh, do you approve or disapprove of the way Trump handled his press conference with putin of the total And this is after everything, This is after they've been saying it's worse than uh, it's worse than Pearl Harbor, It's worse than nine eleven. It's just as bad as all all these things.
With the parade of horribles. They've tried it out about Trump's meeting, which, as I keep telling you, and look, some folks who listen to this show, it's disappointing me, but they think that I this week was too much for them with regard to me. They I've had a couple of people, not a lot. I mean, we're talking about of the of the vast national squad that his
team buck. I'm talking about a few emails here, but a few people are like, they just think I was not tough enough on Trump, and they're gonna go away from the show for you know, well, I hope they come back, and you know it. Look, it's the nice thing about this whole situation is people are free to listen or not listen, right, and I want everyone to listen,
but I act everyone's choices. But despite all of the craziness from this week, right, all the stuff you've seen, for of all people, all people pulled approve of the press conference in the way Trump handled Now you could say, well, Buck. I mean that means that I'm a clear majority of Americans disapproved. But so so from what we gather here of Americans think that, you know, the equivalent of Pearl Harbor was like nb D, no big deal. Among the GOP,
seventy nine totally approved. Seventy nine are on board for this total approve, okay, not like a little bit, not a And then among Independence it's thirty so Independence it didn't look so it didn't look so great for them. Oh and by the way, Democrats that the single biggest number Democrats disapprove of how Trump handled his press conference with pood And this was just, folks, this was just a partisan spasm this week. It's not going to affect policies.
I've said, it's not going to change anyone's life. It's not gonna make any terrible things happen. It was just a partisan spasm. And Democrats are gonna have you're hearing it here, you've been hearing for a while. They're gonna have to deal with the fact that they're messaging is just simply not strong enough right now to have any confidence going into the midterms and saying that Trump is
basically handler is not going to be good enough. Stay right there, team, I'll be back Liberty, truth and great Hair. The Buck Sexton Show is back. The approach that we've taken to false news is not that not to say you can't say something wrong on the Internet, right. I think that would be too extreme. Everyone gets things wrong, right, And if we were taking down people's accounts when they got a few things wrong, then that would be a hard world for giving people a voice and and saying
that you care about that. But at the same time, I think that we have a responsibility to when you look at if you look at the top a hundred things that are going viral or getting distribution on Facebook within any even day, I do think we have a responsibility to make sure that those aren't hoaxes and blatant misinformation.
So that's the approach that we've taken. As we look at the things that are that are getting the most distribution, if people have flag them as potential hoaxes, we send those to fact checkers who are all well reckonable and um and and have followed standard principles for fact checking. And if those factrickers say that that it is provably false, then we will significantly reduce the distribution of that content. That was Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg in an interview on
a recode I had never heard of until now. But he's telling you how it's gonna happen, folks, what they're gonna do, How the other side is going to play the game. Right. They now have these fact checkers who if you look at PolitiFact, if you look at some of these outfits, very ler that they are left leaning, to say the least. I think you could even go as far as to say that they are in many cases left wing aligned. But this is the the the central offensive effort of the left right now to monitor
and change and censor and throttle speech online. Say it's just about facts. Really. They've also got Zuckerberg saying in the same interview that violent content or content that could inspire violence, they're going to censor that. Here's what I'm gonna tell you. Okay, there will be a as long as Silicon Valley is dominated by people who have progressive ideology, which it currently is in a way that is similar
to college campuses. Think of the faculty at Harvard and now put them in charge of some of the biggest, wealthiest most powerful companies in the world Facebook, Google Twitter, and and understand that the faculty at Harvard and the Facebook,
Google Twitter sphere people running those companies have the same politics. Okay, so you you need to keep that in mind, and you need to also remember that they're always going to have these Oh well, we're just we're just trying to protect people, or we're just trying to, you know, keep falsehood from being spread online. It's going to be weaponized against the right. And this is it's really unfortunate. I've
seen it for a long time. Because of the Internet, because of the new media, the left lost its strangle hold over the narrative in this country. Right, you no longer had three channels, three anchors, a few big newspapers, all of them dominated by the left, where you got your narrative of what's happening in your community, in your country, in the world. And this is something the left. They
haven't accepted this. They want to go back to the old times when they had a massive I'm not saying they had complete control of the narrative and we weren't living in North Korea. Obviously, there was William Buckley in the twentieth century at National Review, and you have these different conservative voices that were certainly a part of the
conversation in America. Despite where the media was for for most of the twentieth century, did have a a what we would consider today a clear traditionalist, center right perspective. The American people did. But they want the media wants to get back their massive advantage in the distribution of thoughts and ideas, and social media is how they do it. They can't do it with cable TV, they can't do it with newspapers, but social media is how they're going
to try to do it. And they're gonna say it's to regulate hate speech. They're gonna say it's to get rid of violence. But I'm telling you they're putting in place. It's already been happening. They're putting in place. And it's a private company, folks, So we can't say, oh, First Amendment. You know, we have to watch this and we have to demand better. You know, you you might have to have the same way that you needed a Fox News as a counterbalance to what you were seeing with all
the other cable news networks. You know, you might have to have a center right conservative social media platform where you don't have to worry about your traffic getting throttled or you know, if you post things in support of guns, now the second Amendment, I mean, are you advocating violence? A lot of people in the country would say yes. A lot of leftists would say yes. So guess what, it's not even that they'll ban you, at least if you get banned. You know what you heard at the end,
there is basically throttling or limiting the traffic. So just elevating some voices while minimizing others. It's the equivalent of you're having a debate and your might gets turned off, all the other guys might gets turned way up. That's how they will control the narrative. And Facebook, which is a leftist organization, a left wing driven company, is going to be a critical part of their agenda here, so we gotta keep an eye on this. That said, roll
call Facebook. That's up next. Hey, team Buck, it's time for roll call. Alright, let's get into that roll call action. Do you know what time it is? First? Stuff? And remember Facebook dot com, slash buck sex and don't just send me messages there, folks, If you are listening and you have not already please please do follow me so you can see the posts and you can be up to speed on all things freedom. Hut all right, Thomas, up first year here, rights. So it's quite a note buck.
In your segment about foreign countries hacking our data and stealing our technologies, you should have mentioned the long term implications of how all that data intellectual property is sold on the dark web. It's a major industry that is utilized by every racketeering organization and cartel around the world.
Their level of sophistication far exceeds anything governments have competition between governments for sober spying his old hat compared to the intricate systems devised by international traffickers and contraband networks. If the talking heads on the media networks ever started to dig into the amount of legal network traffic that goes on every day, their heads would explode. Interesting us
never stopped f in the fight shields, hie. Well, thank you, Thomas, I did not really, I don't really know much about the dark web, be honest with you, so I will look into this, but very interesting thoughts from you and appreciate you writing in Johan. Right, Hey, buck Man, this messaging is tough. I had entered to start a new line, and instead it sends my wife has schooled me about it, so no more. Hello Buck, with nothing else. You are the only conservative talk show I can listen to these days.
The others I shut off after a few minutes because most are hosted by pompous idiots. If you're on for office, I will vote for and support you. The reason for this message is something that happened with the All Star Game. It seems that a picture in that game made some hateful tweets when he was seventeen, which was some years ago. Now MLB is doing the look how superior we are thing and sending this guy to sensitivity training. MLB is like the police and Navy are to me, and that
is something I no longer know. The Navy I was in in the seventies doesn't exist, and my old department doesn't even exist anymore. Observed absorbed into the n Y heat d Buck, I give up. The only good thing is my time on this earth is closer to the end than the beginning. The coming train wreck is on a VOIDO. By the way, I no longer fall the Mets. Johan A few things here, Johan First of all, thank
you for your kind words about my show. And I know that there are others out there who take a very different approach, and they do a lot of I'm the best, I'm the greatest. Listen to me, I'm amazing, I'm the smartest. You know, that's not really I I leave all judgments about my ability, my talent, my insight to all of you, and I hope that you find it worth your time. I don't sit here and talk about, at least in any seriousness, how great I think I am.
That's just my way. Other people have a different way. As to your comments, Yeah, things have definitely been in a lot of flux. There's a lot of change going on. But my friend, there's always there is always a good reason to push ahead. And this is really a moment to say shields high. It means keep that shield up, stay in the fight, and just be aware that you never ever give up. You stay in the fight, and you stay for what you believe in. Mark Rights, Hey Buck,
not sure when you are alive. When I listen on nine sixty a m in Connecticut, and I don't always get to hear roll call, but I heard tonight that you learned Arabic. My question is what is the best way to learn another language? Did the agency have programs to make it easier? If able to respond back, I would appreciate it. Shields high, Oh, Mark, let me tell you, I'm not a linguist. I'm not somebody who's I'm not
somebody who's great at other languages. I was decent at French for a while, though I'm very, very rusty now. I took a little German, which I probably remember a hundred and fifty words of, and I took Arabic, which I probably remember fifty words of. Um, but I was studying it before nine eleven because of my interest in the region in terms of its history and politics, the Middle East. So you know that for from what I've seen from people I know who have learned the language,
who have done very well with it. From what I've seen, Um, the truth is that you want to get momentum going, meaning once you start throw yourself into it, don't dabble because you won't make the progress necessary to keep you motivated to stay in it. So you need momentum with languages, and that means you want to go in, you know, with a lot because as you learn more, you'll want to spend more time learning more. Right. But if you're just learning a little bits and you forget a little
bits and forget, it's not as effective. But I leave it to other people. I mean, I have an uncle who is a true linguist. He speaks speaks six languages. So I'm certainly not in that category. I'm just working on my English. But mark people I know have had some pretty good success with some of the language learning software that's out there, at least to get you too a reasonably conversational level. All right, Monica writes Buck, please
stop saying Muslim ban when it is not. You are falling in the trap of using left vocabulary as always shields Hime. Monica, you are correct. They call it a Muslim band. It is not a Muslim ban. And this is one of these instances where I say to you, see, even even I fall victim too, getting pushed into the discourse of the left and the way that they were really the word choices of the left, and the way
that they speak about all these things. So that is something that I think it's important for all of us to avoid for obvious reasons. Uh, And you do not look you don't. You don't want the enemy, you don't want the other side telling you how to speak. It's pretty straightforward, Brian, next up here, Uh right, Buck, thank you for showing the insanity portrayed by Congressman Jim McGovern. I'm sad to say that, through no fault of my own, he represents me in my district of Massachusetts. But this
year he has a couple of competitors. I've been supporting a new Republican candidate, Tracy Louisville love Orn, and even march with her during the Fourth of July parade, even though I know that gains uh that gains no points with your parade hating self. True, Brian, True, don't worry. I'm there with you. I don't even go to other parades, even though I'm a veteran, for example. But this was word to me. If this shameless plug could make it on air to help get rid of Jim's ridiculousness, I'd
be very grateful. So here's a link to the site Tracy for Congress dot com is the site Tracy love Orn for the US Congress up in the state of Massachusetts. There you go, Brian, your wishes my command now, Jen, Right, dude, you need to make a Hyena Arena T shirt. Well, Jen, I kind of like that idea. I think that makes some sense, but we need to get our T shirts out. By the way, I've been getting messages from some of
you that your T shirts are very delayed. I wrote an email today to address this, and I'm going to follow up and see what's going on with our vendor because with our site change, you know, technology, things get a little messed up. Uh. If you if you ordered a shirt and did not get one, write to me on Facebook and we'll track down what's going on. And you know, if we we will, we will make this right.
Because I really appreciate all of you who buy T shirts and and also, by the I really appreciate all of you who check out our sponsors. So if you ever have a problem when you type in a promo code for one of our sponsors, whether it's Black Rifle, you guys heard from the Strike Force CEO last night. Uh, when you go to strike Force dot strike Force Energy dot com and you type in buck, not only getting temper sent off and you're sending it to troops around
the world. Ever, everything you buy get sent to troops and just remember that. But every time you type in that buck and press enter, you get temper cent off. You're helping troops and you are telling the Strike Force CEO. Hey, I'm part of Team Bucking and I want to support you and the show. But if it doesn't work for some reason, if the promo code doesn't, let me know. Because technology is constantly uh something we have to stay
on top of. Here. Um John, next up here. UH just heard you talking about the dreaded N word and was impressed, uh that you were able to continue that conversation. Even more impressed you didn't say chill ax. You really said that I can tolerate idiots talking like it's but when intelligent people, hey man, you know, sometimes like to throw words like lax into things. Settle down, John, settled down. All right, let's see what we get here. Uh. Bob Rights was in town in d C for the MLB
All Star Game the last three days. Man, it was humid and swampy, Bob. Indeed, it is humid and swampy here in d C. It is. It is swamptastic. It's a real thing that happens here in this town. And you know it's not just the politics that are swampy. There you go, Paul, writes Paul from Austria. Guten tag Paul, Yeah, Austin Stewing, we miss you here in the United States. Paul Wrights would like to ask you to tell me about illegals voting. Do they do it? Is there much
information on this data? My step mom is Hispanic and is so certain they do not. I want to show her otherwise. Please keep up the great work. It is a pleasure to listen to your message. Thank you, Paul. Paul. The truth is we don't know. We don't have the data, and left in the Democrats pretty much refuse to let us get the data. They do not want the They don't want things to be collected here that could let us know the answer. They'd rather this all be swept
under the rug. They constantly say that there is no such thing as voter fraud. It does not happen, you know, don't believe it. Well, there is voter fraud, So how much is there? We don't really know. And we also know that d m vs, because of the Motor Voter Law, d m vs register anyone who shows up and in a lot of states, you get people who are registering for a driver's license even though they are not citizens
and cannot legally vote. Well, it stands to reason, doesn't it that, even if not through intentional malfeasance, people could show up and be told, hey, you're at the d m V register, in the register, and then I think they're allowed to vote, But we don't know because they won't allow there to be any real research into this
at the national level. So I I think, let's put it this way, wouldn't be surprising, giving everything, given everything that's at stake, wouldn't it be surprising if, uh, you know, we found out that there wasn't a fair amount of voter fraud. Well we we think that system is totally honest and fine, there's no problems there are. That strikes me as a bit of a stretch. Matthew, next up here, Rights. I just started to watch Rising Good Show and caught
crystals opening bit and had to post this. Are progressives that blind complaining about Trump or Republicans not being fiscally responsible? No they are not. No they are not. Pardon me, but neither are the Dems. How much debt did Obama? Ad would love to hear her defend that. Keep up
the good fight, Matthew. You know, Matthew, what you see I think with all this stuff about debt and spending is that there's a pretty clear tendency among folks to think that their side spending to spending is correlated with government action. Their side spending is a good thing, and the other guys spending the other side spending is a bad thing. And I this is unfortunate, it's a bit cynical, but this is the reality of what we see in
politics today. I mean, when was the last time you really heard somebody getting energized about a twenty trillion dollar debt? When was the last time you heard somebody who was particularly fired up about what that's doing to the country. I mean Ron Paul occasionally talks about it, but very few people seem to care much at all about what's going on with the the debt. So, yes, you are correct. Progressive now pretend to care. Obama spent us into oblivion
and they are being dishonest with this stuff. But it is what it is. That's gonna be it for today in the Hut. Please do I check out our sponsors, Like I said, and uh, also get ready for the Freedom Hut podcast my guest Jedediah Bela. This week we're talking about a lot of fun stuff. You'll want to hear that. It's gonna be a very relaxed chat about some things. Uh. And then until tomorrow, my friends, I'll be up in NYC Shields High
