You're listening to the Buck Sexton Show podcast, make sure you subscribe to the podcast on the iHeartRadio app or wherever you get your podcasts. Cuomo advisors altered report on COVID nineteen nursing home debts. That was the story in the Wall Street Journal just yesterday. I want to make sure that we all focus in on this because I know the media is spending a lot of time on the sexual harassment allegations about Cuomo. And that's fine, he's a creepy old weirdo. I get it. I'm with you
on all that. But what he did in the nursing home fiasco was far more egregious as a matter of public conduct, and far more damaging to the Democrat party and brand and the media too. That's a mega scandal, not not a thing that can be apologized for, not a thing that you can just wave aside with a hand and a few tears and say, oh the better.
I promise that's not the way this works. We need to continue to hammer home the point here that Cuomo had people on his staff intentionally change numbers about deaths during a pandemic. This would be like a general lying about troops killed in battle so he could keep his job. That's how serious this is. You have to understand the degree to which this change thinking, and this mattered at this period in time of extremely important and tense decision making.
Maybe people would have thought differently about, Oh, I don't know, the Great Barrington Declaration about focused protection for seniors if they had known just how egregious the government misconduct, how awful the decision making was in New York. Remember New York and New Jersey number two and number one, respectively for COVID deaths for one hundred thousand people in the United States, both very deep blue Democrats states. Let's remember that.
And yet somehow Cuomo was a hero. He was second only to Fauci, to whom I can only say he needs to go Fauci himself, second only to Fauci in terms of the hero worship from the media. What the heck was this all about? How did this even happen? There's so much going on here. First of all, you have the fact that if you're a Democrat, you can get away with things that you would never be able to if this were a Republican. Imagine this were Christy Gnome.
Imagine this were Ron Descantists. If Ron Descantists hid fifteen thousand nursing home debts by by undercounting it by fifty percent, so whatever they said it was roughly you got seventy five hundred. Let's say something along that along those lines. If he said that it was seventy five hundred, it was really fifteen thousand, people would be demanding not only he resigned, and when I say people, I mean universal, there would be universal, nationwide condemnation. In the media. It
would be the top story. And there's just this kind of muted, halfhearted reportage on it from the Democrat outlets. You know, yeah, it looks like maybe a crazy thing happened. Man Cuomo was undercounting nursing home deaths by I don't know, like fifty percent or something. Wow, they really don't math so good over in the Cuomo office, do they. Yeah, tough to do addition and subtraction. This mattered immensely. And if this were a Rhonda Santists, it would be the
number one news story. I mean, you know, you remember when during the Bush administration there was that misconduct in Abu Grabe and that was on the front page of the newspaper day after day after day after day, and I remember being a pretty pretty young guy at the time and saying, Wow, So this is how you make a story really stick. This is how you really tear
down an administration with the story. I mean, George Bush wasn't giving that order, but Abu Gray was on the front page of the newspaper of the New York Times, for example, I want to say twenty out of thirty days or something like that. It was a long time ago, but it was so much coverage of it, just saturation, saturation coverage. And they could do the same thing with Puma.
This is a really big deal. We've had Democrats and we've had the corporate media lecturing us month after month after month about listening to the data, obeying the science, doing what Fauci tells us, And the hero of the pandemic was actually the villain. And we're not supposed to think that this is indicative of broader problems and the
way they approached this whole thing in twenty twenty. We're not supposed to make the connection that clearly they were willing to go along with this in part because they knew that Cuomo was a useful weapon against Donald Trump in the election year, that Orange man bad who liked hydroxychloroquin as an idea, and you wasn't running around quadruple masking that maybe they were a little bit unfair to the point of sheer dishonesty about Trump in the election year,
and we're willing to prop up people like Cuomo. Here's this piece the Wall Street Journal New York's Andrew Cuomo. New York Governor Andrew Cuomo's top advisors successfully pushed state health officials to strip a public health report of data showing that more nursing home residents had died of COVID
nineteen than the administration had acknowledged. The July report, which examined the factors that led to the spread of the virus in nursing homes, focused only on residents who died inside long term care facilities, leaving out those who had died in hospitals after becoming sick in nursing homes. As a result, the report said six thousand, four hundred and thirty two nursing home residents had died, a significant undercount of the death toll attributed to the state's most vulnerable population.
The People said the initial version of the report said nearly ten thousand nursing home residents had died in New York by July late last year. One of the people said, according to those with knowledge of the report, unbelievable. They went from ten thousand to six thousand. That's a pretty big difference, isn't it. Why would they do that, well, because they knew that that number would really shock people, and they knew that other states that also have senior
citizens would be a point of comparison. And what they're now going to be able to do is say, hold on a second. The data was fudged here in a way that was meant to prevent accurate comparison. How can you know whether your public health officials? How could you know whether your governor is doing a good job when they're lying about the very data that they claim is supporting their position. And let me tell you this right now,
this is not the only instance. It may be the most egregious, but the only instance of fraud through numbers manipulation. During this pandemic. We will find more of this. There are other cases where people either cherry pick numbers. And I'm talking about governor's state health officials. Maybe even Fauci himself. They cherry pick data to fit a preferred narrative and suppressed anything that challenged what they wanted the people to believe.
If this were if Chromo were the CEO of a publicly traded company, or any company for that matter, if Chromo were the CEO of a private corporation, this kind of activity of hiding numbers like this, if they were profit numbers, for example. I mean, if you were cooking
the books, he'd be facing prison time. But he cooked the books intentionally on deaths during a pandemic, when decisions were being made that were directly affecting and in some cases, as we see now, causing those deaths, and we're supposed to just forget about it, no big deal. Everybody was doing their best. Cuomo was giving us such great press conferences. His brother over at CNN was doing such funny stuff with him at night. They should have had a duo show. Well,
I guess they did. These are the people, these are the voices, these are the platforms out there, all these different Democrat and Cuomo aligned groups and individuals who have been telling you all on to trust them, believe them. And they missed, and they also slowed this down right. That was another part of it. They were hoping to delay this, and they managed to delay until after the election, which is why now they're willing to finally let this
all go. Why now you're seeing all the sexual harassment stories and you know there are people who are who are actually sitting down to do interviews with the accusers. All this is happening because Cuomo's extreme usefulness has passed. You know, you see this with Cuomo, it reminds me of what I believe will happen soon with Joe Biden, where eventually the Democrats will no longer be able to prop up Hiden Biden, who's declining. We'll figure out this
guy really isn't up for this. It'll be apparent, it'll be embarrassing, it'll be sad, and they'll say, oh, yeah, sorry, I guess we missed that. But he beat Trump, didn't he. This is how they play the game. It's the Harry Reid approach to politics. Remember Harry Reid lied about Mitt Romney's tax returns. You know, I'm no Mitt Romney fan, but when asked about this just complete slander, Harry Reid laughed and said he didn't win, did he? And he was right. This is how democrats, this is how your
corporate media approaches their job. They are on a team. They have picked a side, and in this case of Governor Cuomo, the side they picked was lying about thousand and thousands of deaths and causing Remember it's not just
that they were embarrassed by the number. I mean to understand the full scope of this, you have to recognize that Cuomo, because of his unthinkably stupid decision to try to clear out hospital space faster by forcing COVID positive patients back into nursing homes, he caused more of these deaths. You see, it wasn't just this number looks bad for
the state of New York. It's Cuomo made a decision, and some of that decision making, or some of that decisions ramifications, led to people's moms and dads, grandmas and grandpa's dying in nursing homes, not allowed to see their family members, maybe allowed a last zoom call. It is awful beyond words. But he was telling you, he was giving you lectures, and even if you don't live in New York, he doesn't care. He was America's lecturer in
chief during COVID. That's what Cuomo was. He was telling you, if you don't mask up, you might kill somebody. You might cause somebody else's family member, loved one to die. How dare you do exactly what Cuomo says or else talk about what psychologists would call projection. This is so far the biggest scandal, though there are many, and there's going to be a lot more accountability that we have to force on the lockdowners as we have more data
and more of the truth can finally come out. But what Cuomo did was the most appalling decision and the most dishonest aftermath of any major policy choice of the entire COVID nineteen pandemic. And we're finding out about it now. We will not let this go by the way. I've known about this for months. You've known about this for months. It's been reported the New York Post. Now we just have more and more information. It looks even worse than
we thought. The mainstream media is finally touching on this. The mainstream media has finally come around do it because it served its purpose to suppress it when they did. But do not forget this. Cuomo lied seniors died. That is what happened. The Democrat Party should own this. They are responsible for this, and the corporate media's credibility is even further sullied if that was even a thing. That's possible. Just how much did the media love the love Gov.
Governor Andrew Cuomo. The Cuomo sexuals, remember that that was a thing for a while. People were walking around with t shirts on such a hero. He's such an eligible bachelor. Oh gosh, people were batting their eyelashes at Cuomo because he was so amazing. He was keeping us safe. The guy's a thug, a bully, and a liar, the worst of politics, and also a sexual harasser on top of all of that, which we will also get to here. He is according to the media over the course of
this pandemic. I really, I really want you to just sit back and take all this in. Remember Cuomo live. Seniors died. Cuomo made an unthinkably stupid bullying decision, threatened nursing homes, basically used his pandemic superpower or ultra authoritarianism and superpower sounds like he's a hero, but use the authoritarian emergency powers. There we go that he had and then lied about it when it was a disaster afterwards, and then tried to shame everybody else who wouldn't keep
listening to him. This is what you're the guardians of our republic, right the Fourth Estate. This is what they were saying about all of it. Play too, playing bye for Governor Cuomo's Press convers is Daily Briefing, David, We're sitting by for Governor Cuomo's press convers is Daily Briefing. How would you contrast Cuomo and President Trump's handling the crisis, truth versus mendacity. Governor Cuomo out there day after day
after day. Everything Trump isn't honest, direct, brave, real leadership. I'm the kind the President of the United States should have provided. Governor Cuomo is clearly living in a totally different reality, the actual one, than the President of the United States. Governor Cuomo has become a national leader for a lot of people. Andrew Cuomo has become the leader
of the Democratic Party. He is conveying incredible strength. You spoke to National Guard troops today in a stirring speech that if I wasn't listening carefully, I thought you were sending soldiers off to war. This has been a remarkable show of leadership by Governor Cuomo in recent days. He's providing hope, but not false hope. Governor of Cuomo, I think, is one of the heroes on the front lines. With all of this adulation that you're getting for doing your job,
are you thinking about running for president? Andrew Cuomo, who has a daily television show now and has become in some way as the shadow president. Maybe Trump is just a little bit mad that Governor Cuomo has been become a kind of acting president. Dealing with hardship actually makes you stronger. That's what Governor Cuomo said earlier today. That's what I'm gonna teach my kids right now at home.
Brian Stelter, that guy is Oh my god, It's like the equivalent of pouring estrogen in your ear or something. I mean, this guy is. It's unbelievable. I gotta tell you that that to me. I listened to this and I just I just shiver. It's just so gross. The whole thing is so obtuse and absurd. What what was going through their mind? Oh well, we know, notice how many clips we can pull of them saying unlike Trump,
Cuomo is great. Unlike Trump, Cuomo speaks the truth. That's they're just their brains were fixated on this, fixated on this. You know, an honest assessment of Trump during the pandemic would start with he basically did everything foulch he told them to. When I spoke to the President in May in the Oval Office, the one thing he actually shook my hand in promise. The one thing that I asked is said, sir, please don't allow for there to be a federal push, a national push for and across the
board lockdown. Let's and he said, I totally agree, I get it. He had been listening to Fauci a lot up to that point. He'd been listening to Fauci, and we've all seen what the results are. Remember, this is going to be treated like it's an objective discussion about the data and what's best for the country. But really, as you see from the teachers unions, this is about what is best for different individuals, their power, their money.
They don't want honesty about what's happened during this pandemic. They certainly don't want accountability for people that we're propping up liars, frauds and thugs like Andrew Cuomo. I mean The fact that this guy, I would put money on it right now, is going to finish his term as governor. He will not resign and they will not impeach him just shows you how morally decrepit the Democrat Party in the state of New York and across the country is they're going to let this guy stay. If he stays,
who goes? And let's just remember this, They're not going to impeach. Democrats will not impeach Governor Cuomo, but they impeach Trump twice. The first time and I know this was in Congress, but the first time over a phone call to the Ukrainian president where nothing happened. Cuomo sent seniors to die in nursing homes like a moron because he thought he was so smart and he was drunk with power, and then he lied about it to everybody. If that doesn't make you resign, what does. Governor Cuomo
said that he has never propositioned anybody. Do you believe that he was propositioning you? Yes? For what sex? And then he explains at that point that he is looking for a girlfriend, he's lonely, he's tired. You've just finished dictation and the governor is telling you he's lonely and looking for a relationship. Yes, you have been quoted as saying that. He also asked you about if you'd ever been with an older man. Yeah, he asked me if
age difference mattered. He also explained that he was fine with anyone over twenty two and how old are you? Twenty five? What were you thinking as he's asking you these questions. I thought he's trying to sleep with me. The Governor is trying to sleep with me, and I'm deeply uncomfortable and I have to get out of this
room as soon as possible. And to be clear, what made you think that he was trying to sleep with you Without explicitly saying it, He implied to me that I was old enough for him, and he was lonely. He was trying to sleep with her. Can we all
just state the obvious year together? I mean, that's none of us have been in the workplace and had conversations, and you know, maybe you know, shared some of our personal lives with friends or colleagues or whatever, but we also know when you're the governor of New York and you have a twenty five year old, attractive female who's alone with you, and you're talking about the age at which you're willing to have a sexual relationship and your need for a sexual like short of drawing a map
or like producing some kind of a contract with his expectations at her expectation, Like this is pretty clear. It's entirely credible. All these women who have come forward, these are credible allegations. You know, we could go back to the Kavanaugh era, remember, and they kept saying credible allegations ends Kavanaugh, and I was completely losing my mind over this. I mean I was, I was furious. I mean, this
is what I said. A lot of us became wartime conservatives during Kavanaugh because we saw that there was honestly no there there was no floor, there was no basement of moral depravity. The Democrats, including Kamala Harris by the way, leading the charge there in the Senate, don't ever forget that that there was no low. The Democrats would not god to destroy somebody for politics, that they would lie just in the most it was just the most mendacious, disgusting, idiotic,
obviously untrue garbage about Brett Cavanaugh. It was, and any person who doesn't see that, it's just not very smart. It's not possible to look at all the not possible to look at the three accusers, including the third accuser who's like giggling and talking about gang rape that she saw when she came back from college. I mean, the whole the whole thing or Julie Sweatnick was her name, The whole thing was so absurd. Avanti Avanati is It isn't amazing to see. He was the hero of CNN
at the time. Don't you see a pattern here? When you were useful against Trump, if you were a weapon against Donald Trump, you were given this this cloak of invincibility and the elevation. You were treated like a conquering hero. It didn't matter how disgusting you were. Michael Avanati is the ultimate slimy lawyer. He makes Michael Cohen Trump's good friend for a while, unfortunately makes Michael Cohen look like an ethical council. Avanati was stealing millions from a paralyzed client.
That guy was on TV. He was on CNN I think more than any other guest over a period of two months. It was as though he was he was paid to anchor a show. He was on all the time, and he went forward with obvious lies about Brett Kavanaugh. But I digress. You know that that whole thing gets me so fired up, and I'll never forget. I had people, I had a CNN anchor reach out to me directly and say, you've got to stop what you're saying about Kavanaugh.
You're going to destroy your career, and people on our side who think you're smart but don't agree with you will never take you seriously again. And I restrained myself from actually writing, you know, go fauci yourself, but I thought about it. I did tell them to, you know, leave, like, don't ever reach out to me again, and you're out of your mind. I think something like that was what I wrote. And yeah, we have not had any context since,
but that's that was the mentality. It was all hands on deck to destroy an innocent man because it was necessary. They thought that was moral. You see, that's the problem with the left. They believe that morality is entirely situational and that there's no universal truth, there's no natural law. It's just whatever they need when they need it. That's a central principle of the left. That's if they have a principle, the principle is there's no such thing as
a principle. But they kept saying, I'll bring this back to Quomaa. They kept talking about the need or that kept talking about the credibility of the allegations against Kavanaugh, and they figured if they repeated it enough, well keeps getting called credible, it must be. It would be difficult to come up with a less credible allegation than the
one that. Yes, even you know the professor who leveled or you know the psychologist who leveled against Kavanaugh, she couldn't prove She couldn't prove that she ever even met him, Christine Blasi Ford couldn't prove that she even ever met him, had no details, no corroboration, no nothing, and had lied about things like she was afraid to fly unless she's going to Cabo, then flying as fine, right? I mean, the whole thing was such a scam, such a fraud.
If that's a credible allegation, me saying that I assassinated Abraham Lincoln's a credible allegation. I'm sorry, do you can you prove that I don't have a time machine? Do you know that for a fact? You don't know me? I might have a time machine. You don't know, right, that's the level of credibility we're talking about. With the allegations against Cavanaugh, absurdity. But these allegations against Cuomo, everything
lines up, everything is exactly. There's a pattern, the same kind of pattern everyone knows, and there were whispers about it before too. Word always gets out a little bit about these things, right, word always comes out, and nobody was really surprised by this. That's what's so amazing. The Democrats protected him as long as they could. They propped this jerk up as long as it was feasible for them, and as long as it was advantageous. That's the big difference.
As long as it was an advantage for them, they propped this guy up. And here we are, here we are. I gotta tell you, the fact that he's not going to resign is so troubling. But also in another sense, he's an excellent reminder of how of how corrupt Democrats are with all of these things, and how two faced they are, and how it's all just about power for them.
You know, meet me two things, right, I mean, first of all, let's not forget Joe Biden was credibly accused of sexual assault by a woman who knew him, who worked with him, who was around him. You know, remember when it was what does she have to gain accusing a Democrat who's going to be president of sexual assault? You really have got nothing to gain because your life is going to be ruined. You'd never even hear about that anymore. Do creepy Joe sniffing women's heads, grabbing them,
touching them, saying weird city. I have never met a stranger and held her head from behind and kissed her head and sniffed her hair. That is a weird old move. Joe Biden did that. That's a matter of record. That's not that's not even an alligation. He apologized for that, but not not an issue to say nothing about Joe Biden. It doesn't matter. See. One of the things about Trump was that he was blowing out into the open the truth that we had known about the Democrats for so long.
When he would say things like, you know, I could shoot somebody on Fifth Avenue, and you know, my supporters would stay with me, and the Democrats all lost their minds about that. A lot of Trump supporters said, look, he's obviously exaggerating a little bit, or he's you know, he's trying to make a point. It's hyperbole, but that has always been true about Democrats, Bill Clinton, going down the whole list. It's always been true that they can do whatever they want as long as they're useful for
the power of the people on the Democrat side. And the same thing as very much true or Cuomo. We're seeing this play out in real time. Very I was gonna say, it's discouraging, that's not even really true. This is who the Democrats are. There's no surprise here. None of you are sitting around saying, wait a second, they're really unethical. They'll lie about Kavanaugh, and then they'll defend Kavanaugh, who's clearly innocent, and then and then defend Cuomo until
they can't. They just they couldn't hold it back anymore. It's like Harvey Weinstein. Weinstein was a big friend of the Obama's. He was a big donor to the Democrats, you know, you see, and then eventually they're like, oh, there's too many allegations, too much stuff comes out. So then they you know, like like an old horse getting
sent to the glue factory. That's what they do with Weinstein, with Cuomo, you know, Sorry, you're more useful now for us to do some virtue signaling and pretend like we're an honest press. They don't take these people down when it matters. They don't take them down when they're actually going to politically lose as a result of it. Get on the whole list. Everybody knew Charlie Rose with the crusty claw. I love that law, and that was a crusty claw, Matie. You know Charlie Rose was grabbing. I
heard about Charlie Rose being an old creepster. I mean like twenty years ago when I was working at CBSC. If you news, everyone's always known that guy was an old creepster. You can own this list, all all these prominent democrats that it took so long, and then finally and then they want applause because the media fin covers the story. No, when they were powerful, when they were necessary to carry the message for the left, they were protecting the same things. True a cuomo here, But you
listen to these young women. Look, we also all know. We sit there and you see these women talking about this, and you go, yeah, they're telling the truth. You know, we can actually make these guys sometimes you don't know sometimes it's kind of hard. Sometimes it feels like he said, she said, no, this is she said, and she's telling the truth. And she said, and she said, because they're a handful of them, they're telling the truth. Do the
Democrats really care? What's fascinated, of course, is they actually do care about the sexual harassment more than they do the order to send seniors into nursing homes, which undoubtedly put more of them at risk and killed more seniors than would have otherwise died. They care more about uncouth inappropriate comments said to women. He didn't, you know, he
didn't sexually assault anybody. I mean, there are there are some things Cuomo did not do, but I mean, he clearly likes young women and tries to use his power as a means of getting them into bed with him. And now it's come out, and that is what the media is hoisting them up and destroying him over. That's what they're hoisting him up over. Not there's the seniors in the nursing homes, because that goes after much more
than just one man being a lecherous old fool. That goes to something else, goes to the way the media lied about COVID in so many ways to defeat Donald Trump in twenty twenty. The only way I know how to improve it is with a shredder. It's not even a coronavirus bill. Calming this a coronavirus bill is like
calling Harvey Weinstein a feminist. It's chock full of spending porn, billions of dollars to states and local governments that have seen the revenues go up, billions of dollars defend programs, billions of dollars to schools with no requirements that they open. It's it's a it's an orgy of pork, an orgy of pork, the Senator, Senator Kennedy says here, it's like calling Harvey Weinstein a feminist, Kennedy. Kennedy's definitely writing out
his lines beforehand, that's for sure. I don't also thought I was reminded of this because I mentioned Harvey Weinstein before in the context of incredibly powerful, wealthy, influential democrats who they cover for as long as they can, and then they want applause when the person is no longer useful to their cause and they, you know, throw them to the wolves. This coronavirus bill, that is I mean, it's not a COVID bill, it's just a Democrat spending bill.
And we should come up with a better name for one thing, that one thing. We're Republicans, I think continuous continue to fall down on or or a major shortcoming they have is we need catchy phrases for things too. This is politics. We need short hand we need slogans, you know, we need better ways of referring to some of these things, because the second you call this a
COVID relief bill, you're basically playing their game. The moment you concede with that word, that one point nine trillion dollars sounds like it's going toward helping people who have been so affected by COVID. But nine percent of the actual bill does so. Nine percent. I mean, if it were like sixty or seventy percent, I'd say, oh, you know, it's politics. They're gonna put some other stuff in there.
It's basically all not COVID stuff. In fact, there's a whole there's there's provisions about, you know, additional spending for education, and most of it doesn't even happen next year. It's built in, it's layered in over years and years, tens of billions of dollars. Oh, you mean the teachers unions want their payoffs and they want their prerogatives, and it really has nothing to do with their safety. They're so scared. Yeah,
that's what I thought. Not a surprise, the pretense of Biden administration and of a Democrat majority Congress acting and even the most the most basic bipartisan fashion. I mean, that didn't last a day, did it. And Biden came into office in his attitude, or I should say the handlers around him and the special interests and the people that are telling him what to do. The attitude was we won, you lost, Go jump in a lake, you know, go blankety blanking blank your blank And we've seen nothing
but that since then. And this is I think in part of a hangover of the way that Donald Trump psychologically broke the Left and they haven't put themselves back together. I mean, you know, Humpty Dumpy, all the King's horses and men can't put the Democrats fragile emotions back together again. I mean, they're having a tough time here because Donald Trump came into office and made fun of them for four years for being a bunch of shrill lib lunatics,
and now they want paid against against everybody else. There's real anger out there. But you know, Ted Cruz notices that they're not even pretending to be reaching the other side. And you look at the way that Republicans passed real COVID bills with Democrat votes last year. It's actually possible, folks, that's not some theoretical Democrats are going to put pass this probably without a single Republican vote in the Senate. And you know, who knows how the House is going
to go play ten. We're getting ready to go through an unfortunate bit of political theater, and the reason for that is that the Democrats have made the decision to be hard partisans rather than to work together in a bipartisan manner. Last year, Congress passed five separate COVID relief bills. Every one of them was bipartisan. So it's not just
empty words. Republicans here have demonstrated that we are ready and willing to roll up our sleeves and work together in a bipartisan manner to address COVID, to defeat this pandemic, and to get people back to work. Joe Biden Chuck Show where Nancy Close he could have done the same, but they made a decision instead. This is not a COVID bill. Nine percent of this bill focuses on COVID.
Health spending is a partisan wish list, paying off the Democratic special interests that brought them elect And it's cynical. It's got Chuck Schumer's bridge to Canada. The last I checked, A bridge to Canada is not going to defeat COVID. It is not. Sorry Canada, That's not the way it's going to work. But Republicans did buy partisan things to
help the country during COVID. Democrats won't do that now. Why, what we are doing is building the capacity to address the needs of those children, and we are guided by some core principles. Number one, we act in the best interests of the children, and we act in the best interests of the American people. And thirdly, we adhere to our values and principles as a country. And so in fact,
the numbers are significant. Allan is significant. Yeah, And our plans are well underway as we build the capacity to address the needs of the children, and we are rebuilding from scratch. Oh, it's all about the children. What's Buck's law of politics for Democrats. The moment they tell you it's about the children, you're being lied to. Okay, just
remember that it's always true. The moment they say it's for the children, the moment Nancy Pelosi comes out, you know, with her Chanelle scarf loosely draped around her mouth because she cares so much about COVID and goes the children. Indeed, Yeah, we're gonna get them the things that they need. Yeah, that's because they've got something else going on. Why do we have a what is he saying now, DHS Secretary of may orcas a significant challenge at the border. Why
do we have this because of the Biden administration. That's why we have a huge spike in people coming to the border. They are literally wearing Biden T shirts. Okay, can we make this anymore clear? Illegal immigrants are showing up and wearing T shirts that say Biden, let us in at the border. I think we know why they're showing up. And Democrats are already I mean House Democrats are already pushing bills, trying to get bills ready to go for mass amnesty. I said, I've said this all along.
You know, policy, I'm good at predicting elections. I don't think anybody can really predict elections, but policy I can usually see coming. But we're going to have to have a whole reckoning here as a country about what's going on with our immigration policy right now, because this is about to be the central fight. And really what you're going to start to you're gonna start to see is that they want open borders because sovereignty is for suckers.
Sovereignty a nation that can control its borders that requires effort. You know, it's much better create incentives for people to come, and give even more incentives when they stay to vote for one political party, and you effectively create and a voter base of anybody from anywhere around the world who feels like coming to America and availing themselves of all of the benefits of being here illegally. Right, we're supposed
to have a process for all of this. I mean, as Milton Friedman said, it is one thing to have free immigration to jobs. It's another thing to have free immigration to welfare. And you cannot have both. You can have a welfare state or you can have open immigration for jobs. You have both, You've got a big problem. Do you think we have a bit of a welfare state in this country, is it fair to say? But
this has been a long time in coming. As you know, the dominant liberal media narrative on immigration has been a series of shifting lies for about the last forty years. In the Trump era, the main leftist argument on immigration shifted into outright moral blackmail from the left. This is what this is how it would always go. You know this, if you ever tried to talk to somebody about immigration policy,
this is how it happens. Do you have a problem with a million illegal arrivals from a Central America, You must be racist, they say to you. If you ask any questions about who will pay for these new illegal arrivals in terms of the benefits and welfare, that's a racist question to ask. If you wonder how social Security and Medicare will remain viable programs when millions of illegal aliens will need similar benefits when they reach retirement age,
it's racist to even consider such things. It's just always about how it's always racist and xenophobic. You're not allowed to ask any questions based on, oh, I don't know the simple math of how are we going to pay for this? Who's gonna pay for this? How's this all going to go? That's more or less the extent of the intellectual discourse you can expect from leftists on the issue of illegal immigration, because they much prefer to engage in ad hominin attacks against anybody who has a problem
with open borders. It's so much easier. As you know, illegal alien is a term that appears in the federal legal Code. Many times left just now say that it is hateful, and they're actually in the process of changing this. They might have already changed it by the time I talk to you. In the federal code, it's hateful to say words that are written in federal law when it comes to immigration. But they were. They used to insist on illegal immigrant, but they disliked the fact that there
was illegal in there. So if you're gonna call something illegal, you're kind of admitting it's against the law. That's a problem. So then they moved on to the more orwellian term undocumented, which is absurdly vague and inaccurate. They have documents somewhere, they're not undocumented. They just don't have documents that say you're legally allowed to be in the United States. Calling an illegal alien undocumented is like calling a trespasser a
pre invite guest. Now keep in mind, this phraseology fight is coming to us after decades of brainwashing the American people with platitudes meant to conflate legal and illegal immigration to misleads citizens about the costs of illegals and pretend the problem was less massive all along than in reality it is. Loaded misleading claims like America is a nation of immigrants, and immigrants do the jobs Americans won't do have become second nature for many American commentators, in particular
news anchors policy analysts. They say these things as though they are written in the Constitution itself. I mean, CNN actually seems to believe that Emma Lazarus's Great Colossus poem on the base of the Statue of Liberty is the foundation of federal immigration law. You know the poem. For anybody who doesn't know this, just so you're clear, the poem was for a fundraiser. The plaque is there for tourists. Okay,
that's where the Great Colossus bone. You know, and give me you're tired, you're hungry, or I don't remember all the poem, but you get it. Historically, Ellis Island was actually a place where immigrants could be rejected on the spot after a week's long transatlantic journey. You got about two percent of all new immigrants at Ellis Island were for medical or mental health reasons, told to go back on the boat and go home. So people were turned away even at Ellas Island, not a lot, but there
were people turned away. The life's rewriting of immigration history isn't simply an academic matter. It's been used to create narratives that support illegal immigration at the expense of rule of law and sovereignty. So that's now it's at the point where we have to see what's going to come next, what's going to happen. We are at the extremes now, we are at the phase where we would have to think about what becomes of this country when there's another
mass legalization. Remember we had a mass legalization under Ronald Reagan in nineteen eighty six, and they said it would only be whatever. It was, a couple million, and then there was going to be very secure border and no more illegal immigration. We got the amnesty, and then we got millions and millions more illegal immigran in the country.
And you know, if all of this is fine, if it means if it is meaningless, as the left now pretends, why do we even pretend there's a thing called assimilation?
Why have immigration laws at all? If immigration, including illegal immigration, if illegal immigration is only good, if it is only upside And there are some radical libertarian think tank types who will always say that right, oh the more, if we could take them, if we could take five hundred million people from China the United States tomorrow, it would
make us wealthier, That's what they'll tell you. It'll be a better country then, to which I say, Okay, if five hundred million Chinese arrived in America tomorrow, which I know that's not going to happen, but we're just as a thought experiment, would it still be America? It's still the same country. Don't we have cultures, norms, more rays, shared history, tradition. Doesn't all that come from being here and being an American? And that we have an assimilation
process for people to become American over time. But you know, when you show up here illegally and the first day you step on us soil, you're not an American. You're not by law, and you're not by any other definition. So how do we actually view this as a society. These are the conversations we have to have. And then, of course there's the question of the official count as of twenty seventeen. They were saying, and it's just true now too. I mean, I just have a twenty seventeen
number in front of me. But they'll say about eleven point seven million illegal illegal aliens in the the United States. But that figure is an estimate based on voluntary census data. That's right, it's all census data they're using. The real number of illegal aliens is probably much much higher. Right. There were those math nerds at Yale, and I say math nerds with reverence, just a couple of years ago.
They did a PhD project and they looked at all the available data and these are you know, these are math whizzes, and they estimated the number of illegal aliens was more like twenty million, which is close to double the official figure. It's it's pretty remarkable when you see that we're told the number has stayed constant, illegal aliens has stayed constant for like the last ten or fifteen years.
Net migration zero. You hear all these things. Meanwhile, when I've been down at the border and talk to border patrol. Members of border patrol, you know what they say, that's ridiculous. We're catching illegals crossing over all the time, and illegals aren't in large numbers going back to where they came from, especially if they come from Pakistan or China or the Philippines or wherever they're not they're not coming, they're not going back to their home countries. Once they get here,
they stay. But we can't even we cannot have an honest discussion about immigration in this country. And again see even just the notion of immigration. I'm talking about illegal immigration. We can't have an honest discussion about it because that would mean the left won't get its way quite as easily. But do you see how they're ramming through this spending bill in the Congress. See how their plans now or to just continue doing exactly what they want, doesn't matter
what the Republicans think. That's the plan for amnesty too, That's how they're going to ram through amnesty. They're shameful. We know that the Republican Party does not have ideas, and so they know if they don't have a policy, they can run on and get the ability to convince people to vote for them. They're going to limit the amount of people that can vote so that they can
continue to have the ability to get elected. We believe that the more people that have the ability to vote and participate in our democracy is what makes our democracy work. And we're going to continue to fight them on local levels, but we're also going to do something federally. And that's what we did last night. We passed the People's Act HR one, which is our pro democracy legislation that creates
more accountability and transparent democracy. And this is you know, a sweeping legislation that creates a matic voter registration, that gets rid of partisan jurymandering, that allows for there to be early voting processes, that gets you know, certain interests and dirty money out of our politics, and allows for more people to believe in our democracy and know that, you know, it's supposed to be of the people, for
the people. HR one, other than amnesty, is the most important policy that the Democrats are trying to ram through in America right now. Okay, this is enormously consequential, and our conservative media is not focused enough on this. You know, I really, I really think that conservative media is, you know, still a little bit of licking our wounds here after what happened in the election. I think people are feeling a little bit and I get it, feeling a little
bit it on their back feet. But we got we have no time for that. We gotta mount up, We gotta get ready and get serious here. Because Democrats notice, right from the get go, left wing ideologue stuff right away, not you know, let's take care, let's fix the country and make everything a little bit better, and then we can then we can get back to fighting over you know, magazine bands and firearms and things like that, the usual stuff, right the stuff that Democrats will never let go. Can
we at least get normalcy back in our society? Could that be the focus, Get out of COVID, get past COVID. No, the focus is to use the crisis for their own political benefit right away. And that's where HR one comes in. My friends. These are the kind of things that will prevent a Republican from winning elections for the next twenty years and will change the Republican Party in the process as well, to make it even whimpier and less conservative.
These are structural, long term changes. These are not minor things. And the Democrats know with HR I've already been telling you about Ambassy. They know with HR one that this would be an enormously consequential bill for them. There's so much so that you know, you've got just yesterday the San Francisco Chronicle writing that the filibuster is a small sacrifice for HR one the future of democracy. You're gonna know what Democrats really want by where they actually finally
decide in this fifty fifty senate we've got. When they finally decide the filibuster is gone, that's when you know they've really they're really going for it, and they may do it on h I don't think they will on HR one. You know, there's a lot of variables here,
but they may do it on HR one. And it's because here's what House to make it very very straightforward, what House Resolution one does is all this stuff the Democrats did to outmaneuver the Trump campaign with bad faith changes in the COVID year to the way the election was going to be held, right, the mass mail in ballots, the lack of verification, the change, you know, the expanding voting everywhere they could, adding additional days for votes to
be gathered after election day, all these things they did. HR one would make all of that stuff the way the law is period right. HR one would would try to do everything in its power to make the twenty twenty election changes the way that all elections are now. Obviously, the states play a large role in this two. But I mean, here's what you know. Here's where, for example, ballot harvesting comes in, and voter verification and those those
kinds of important election safeguard. I mean, ballot harvesting is just a recipe for disaster. And I also think at some point you do need to there needs to be a process the same way we have an immigration process for a reason. There needs to be a voting process for a reason. Here's here's the Wall Street Journal recently on this, just a couple of days ago. If you thought the twenty twenty election ran like a finely oiled machine,
you'll love what Democrats plan next. The Senate and House reserved their first bills HR one and S one for voting changes that would make mail balloting in a play gear seem buttoned up. We've gone through some details, but it's worth looking. As the House prepares to vote this week.
Advocates present the legislation as a good government reform that won't favor either party, but HR one is packed with provisions that would federalize election rules to dubious result, unsettled long standing election practices and security measures that local officials think prudent, undermine public confidence, and increase the odds of contested outcomes. Start with permanent pandemic rules. HR one would create a federal right to a mail ballot, no excuse necessary.
Registered voters couldn't be made to submit any form of identification as a condition of obtaining an absentee ballot, except a signature or affirmation. State laws requiring mail in votes to be notarized or signed by witnesses would be trumped. No pun intended. Late arriving ballots, if postmarked on time, would be vali nationwide for ten days after election day. In other words, the bill would entrench last year's emergency experiment,
further turning election day into election quarter. HR one would give Americans endless opportunities to relive the fund In New York's twenty second congressional district, which didn't have a victor for ninety seven days out of Pennsylvania's tenth ninety seven late arriving ballots last year and alarming six point six percent did not have legible postmarks. A state Senate seat outside Pittsburgh turned on whether or not to count mail
ballots that voters neglected. To date, one county tallied them, the next county did not. What if the White House were in the ballots? Chaos, anarchy, no guardrails, no safeguards. That's how Democrats want elections to be always if they can get away with it going forward, that's the plan. When I travel around the state, there are people who just don't wear a mask, and there's no sanction to them, even though there was a mandate, or at least it
is through next Wednesday, but there were no sanctions. People made their decisions on their own, and I travel in many places where everyone has a mask. We're not saying don't do it. In fact that the capital. We're saying, we strongly suggest you wear a mask. I wear a mask when I'm around people out of respect to them if they want me to. We're saying to people still social distance, we're just not taking away the freedom and liberty and Texas from people that they are doing in
Democrats states and Joe Biden wants to do. But again, Harris, I go back to the President. How dare him attack Texas for our policies when he is allowing the border to be overrun by people coming in here by the hundreds, by the thousands and testing positive and coming on a bus to your state wherever you happen to live in the United States of America. What a hypocrite. And so the Biden administrations allowing the importation of illegal aliens with
COVID nineteen while they're lecturing everybody about masks and social distancing. Still, Texas and Mississippi caught so much heat for this, and I've got to say, I feel like Governor Abbott, they did a little bit of a walk back here with this whole thing. And now when you see what different cities are saying in the state of Texas, it's not quite as free as it should be. I mean, I know we've got a lot of folks listening in KLBJ Austen,
big audience there. Thank you all so much, by the way for being a part of Team Buck in the Austin area. Really do appreciate you, guys and gals. But I know that if you write in, you're gonna tell me we still have, you know, mask mandates and all the businesses and restaurants and everything. So Texas, it seemed like mostly theatrics that at the state level they no longer have a mask mandate. And I do think there's
there's a fair point to be made. And I talked to my friend Jesse Kelly about this yesterday, who's down in Houston, that the mask mandate never should have been there in the first place at the state level. So I'm just I get so excited at the notion of the break in the authoritarianism, or at least a crack in the authoritarianism. Damn, I get so excited that, you know, I'm willing, I'm willing to accept far from perfect policy and and don't always focus on how bad things have
been in some places up to this point. You know, I think the leadership in the state of Texas has been very disappointing on COVID, and obviously they're looking to to get attention away from the awful ice storm situation, the power out power outage, and everything else that happened there. But you'll notice that the media was immediately jumping all over and not just the media, the Biden administration jumping all over Texas and Mississippi for you know, they don't
believe in the science. That's what we were all being told. They don't believe in the science. And guess what state just also said that they're they're reopening or scaling back, going to one hundred percent for businesses and even opening sports venues fifty percent outdoors, ten percent indoors for sports arenas the state of Connecticut. And I haven't seen anybody
like Biden calling, you know, Connecticut a Neanderthal state. So why why is was it okay to go after Mississippi and Texas in that Well, we all know because the station in the mind of the parties and of the press is that that those are red states. Even though Texas is getting uncomfortably close to purple friends, Texas is not trending in the right direction. But that's a conversation
for another time. In the case of Connecticut, though, it is a deep blue state, and it is a state that has had a high degree of COVID mortality, which is something that I also think we need to focus on. I think we need to be very clear about the
fact that the Blue states. I remember early on in the pandemic, there were a lot of smug blue check liberals on social media who were staying, the red states are going to have all this COVID, the Blue states listen to the science and well turned out the worst states for COVID nineteen New Jersey, New York, Massachusetts, Rhode Island. Those are the worst states. Connecticut's high. I think Connecticut's in the top, in the top ten, but those are
the worst states for COVID nineteen. And I think it's important that everybody understand that that was completely contrary to what we were initially being told that the red states that don't wear their masks they were going to be the ones that suffered so badly. Anyway, Connecticut is moving in the right direction. And you know, I always tell you I call balls and strike as I call it like I see it. Anything that is pushing in the
direction of reopening is better than the alternative. So I'm always going to be favorable toward decisions about reopen at this phase because that's where we should all. That's where we should be. But I also understand. I'm also clear on the fact that some of these places. It's not just about when they're reopening, it's about when do we get to have a real conversation about the bad decision making here and the poor decision making of elected officials
about lockdown in the first place. I will tell you this. I was just thinking about this yesterday. I so appreciate the people who listened to this show, who are writing in from all over the country and were really supporting me. It was not easy to be a lockdown skeptic in the last year. I had a lot of people on the right, even I had a lot of people who are Republicans who would write it sometimes saying people who even knew me whould say kind of nasty or really
nasty stuff. You know, can't you read? Why don't you believe science? Things like this all the time, And it's because I was offending their religion. This became a religion. It was a philosophy of meaning and a philosophy of personal excellence that really was very divorced from actual science and data. And so I appreciate those who listening to the show. One that you continue to obviously to listen when I'm talking about this stuff, because I know sometimes
there were other issues. You know, I think that the conservative media was so busy sometimes just just chasing around every aspect of the Trump train, that we let the narrative around COVID be dominated by the Democrats. And by the way, that's how they beat Trump. Was a part of it. COVID was the secret sauce to Joe Biden getting elected. That's how this actually went went went down.
But you know, there was a lot of chasing Trump tweets around, and you know, a lot of focus on you know, Hunter Biden and all I was totally the hunder Biden stuff. The biggest story around under Biden was really the fact that they suppressed the Hunter Biden story. The social media companies did, and obviously all the other media companies news media. But I knew that wasn't going
to cost Joe Biden the election. I knew that that was something that got the conservative base fired up because it shows what a fraud and I get it, what a hack Joe Biden is, but I knew it wasn't going to be enough. The fight was about COVID, and I kept talking to you about it and about masks and about where this all was, and I appreciate all the support of the people were writing in throughout the year that you gave me on this, because it wasn't
it wasn't easy. It wasn't easy. There were not a lot of people on the right who were really adept at making the case and about holding the line when there was overwhelming pressure to to just start double masking or or to just do all these things that we've been told all along, um, some of which are useful to a degree, and some of which are just completely useless.
Others are you know, they're overstated in use. I mean, there's so much nuance here and so much complexity in the how to respond to COVID argument, but it all got boiled down to listen to Saint Fauci anyway, some of us will have seen what the truth is here, and I appreciate. Look, I'm very proud of what this
show said about COVID for the last twelve months. And I put our record up against anybody for seeing things as they are, for seeing what's coming, and for refusing to bend the knee to the you know, mask up peasant outrage mob. Sorry, folks, I just didn't not to you, but to those people didn't didn't feel like allowing them to get away with their authoritarianism, with their petty tyranny without at least some objection. So I'm very proud of what we've done the last twelve months on that topic,
honestly more than any other. And there have not been a lot of people out there who have been really willing to stand shoulder or shoulder with me on this stuff in public, because people like you know, this is a true of even concerns in the media, they really like their peer group to think they're smart. They want they're okay with being disagreed with, but they want other people in commentary and journalism and whatever to think that they're at least they're smart. And that became a big
peer pressure issue with lockdowns and masking. Anyway, Rand Paul among those who have been willing to speak the truth on this issue along Rand Paul has been one of my favorites. I think Rand Paul is a really excellent voice in American politics. I agree with him, you know, over ninety percent of the time I think on policy matters. And I know he's not a great retail politician, and he's just a little he's a little smarmie. It's just the way he is. But I also believe that he's
underrated for his decision making. I think he has very good judgment on a whole range of issues, and he's been so strong on COVID in lockdown. So the Senator from Kentucky here he is play clip one. The scientific evidence has been overwhelming, not only now but for months. The kids should be back in school. Even the most cautious of government experts is saying they should go back to school. Around the world, kids have been in person learning for nine ten months, sometimes some of them never
interrupted in person schooling, without surges or without outbreaks. In my state, three different Christian schools, Louisville Christian Academy, Calvary Christian Academy in Covington, and Rosehill Christian Academy at Ashland have been in continuous school in person since last summer without significant outbreaks. The evidence is there, but maybe we need something even more to get people back in school. And the one thing I know that works is competition.
So I've introduced today a bill called the School Act. The School Act says if you have title ones that follow a poor child, they should follow the poor child wherever they want to go. If there's a school that will not open or will not teach them, the poor child can go to a private school, religious school, wherever they want to go, wherever they think their parents think will be a better education. The child can take those
funds and go there. I'm guessing when kids start flowing to other places, the schools will decide to open up. But right now, we don't have enough in person learning in Kentucky, and I'm going to do everything I can to get the schools open. He frames is the right way. It's not that schools shouldn't stay closed. That's not nearly
far enough. Schools never should have been closed. That's what all the actual evidence points to, despite the politic fact that whatever fact check of me recently where they're all coming out of those people are morons, by the way, absolute morons, but have acquired some real power to silence voices because they've they've presented themselves falsely to social media companies. They've they've colluded with social media giants like Facebook to say,
you know that they are the arbiters of truth. They mean, it's it's bizarre, it's absurd, but that's what they do. That. That's why when I say school should be open, they say partly false. That's that's right. I got an official partly false rating on that when I wrote on bucksexten dot com where we're putting up great pieces. If you haven't read my Texas Reopen and you know, go fouchy yourself lockdowners piece at bucksexen dot com. It's still up.
Please go check it out. And we also have a button to listen to the podcast at the top of that page, so such an easy way. If you're ever like, where do I go? I'm not really a podcast person, Well, I'm sure you're a website person, right, we all are. Go to bucksxen dot com press play at the top of the page. So easy, and you know, and I've I'm so happy with the way that more people listen to this podcast. The more people listen to this podcast,
that's the way it goes. Or you know, this is a radio show, but we have a po pcast of the radio show and you got bucksx and dot com press play at the top of the page. It's very very easy. And this is why our podcast has tripled in size beat two and a half times in the last twelve months also while this pandemic has been going on, because I think that we've been seeing this more clearly than other people, including other people in the in the
conservative commentary space. You know, there a a lot of people that were kind of hedging their bets on some of this stuff in a way that I thought was kind of was pretty weak. We've been we've been keeping it real during COVID in the freedom hunt, that's for sure. We are already on track to bounce back from this chrysis. That's not because of this bill. It's because of our work last year. It's the trend this new democratic government inherited.
We're going to come roaring back, and mostly not because of this bill. In fact, in some ways, in spite of this film. Yeah, that's that's an important concept. Look, I know a lot of you kept problems with Mitch McConnelly. I have problems with what he does sometimes too, but he is an astute political observer at times. And this is the real story of America's come back from COVID, is that if Democrats would just not make things worse,
things would get so much better. If Democrats would just improve things, you know, sorry, if Democrats would just not ruin things, forget about trying to make things a lot better. If they would just stand aside to let the American people get back to work and do what they need to do, we'd be we all be in really good shape. I mean, things would be looking very strong going forward. But they're not. They're actually going to make things worse.
They can't, I mean, they can't help themselves, but this is who they are. They're going to make things worse, and it's it's disappointing, of course, because I want I know this sounds so trite. I know this sounds so saccharin. I want what's best for the country. I want the country to be doing well, and I want us to have our lives back in our freedom back, and I want to get past this whole COVID nightmare. Democrats still feel like there's a lot they need to get out
of this. They haven't squeezed all the juice out of this lemon yet. That's really that's really the mentality. I mean, had they used this yet to address the emergency of climate change? No, they have none, So how could they move past it? Well, we all understand that's why they're trying to extend this as long as they can, and they certainly don't want to give any credit to Biden's
predecessor or anything. Here's Jen Saki play fifteen. You want following some of the same playbook here, So does the prior administration deserve some credit for laying the groundwork? Which ones are we following? Well? For instance, a former Trump EHHS Assistant Secretary Admiral Brett Girard, has said that you're following ninety nine percent of the playbook they created on vaccines.
He has said that the prior administration deserves more credit here for at least getting the ball rolling a similities. I don't think anyone deserves credit when half a million people in the country have died of this pandemic. So what our focus is on, and when the president's focuses on when he came into office just over a month ago,
was ensuring that we had enough vaccines. We have that we are going to have them now, We had enough vaccinators, and we had enough vaccine locations to get this pandemic under control. There's no question and all data points to the fact that there were not enough of any of those things when he took office. We are open eyed about the challenge we continue to live under, and that's why he has been focused every single day and doing
everything possible to get the pandemic under control. But those were there were shortages in all those areas which we're preventing us from moving forward on getting the pandemic under control. Shortages in all of those areas. Huh, No, no credit notice, no credit for anybody. Accept a lot of credit for Joe Biden, right, look at the way she did that. No credit for the vaccine, but credit for ramping up
vaccine production. What's the bigger what's the bigger miracle, folks, getting a vaccine done in truly record time of one year, or a vaccine up upping the number of vaccine that's being produced. I just I'm curious which one of those things you think is a bigger hurdle. Is it discovering the cure or making more of a cure that you're already making millions and millions of doses of But Jen Sagi says no credit for anybody. What she means is
no credit for Trump. Of course, between COVID where we need to have vaccinations more broadly in the capital so that many more people can come here and do their jobs, and the threat of them, of all the president's men out there, we have to we have to ensure with our security that we are safe enough to do our job but not impeding. What about this sup those massive
threat to the Capitol didn't happen. Nothing happened really except a lot of troops walking around with nothing to do, a lot of barbed wire and big metal fencing and makes it look like DC is the DMZ. What the heck is this all about? Our friend Jack possobit from one American News with US now former naval intelligence officer, and we're gonna talked about all this, Jack, mister posts. So good to see you. Buck, really appreciate being here. Thanks for having me on. I mean, yesterday I was
down there. I was boots on the ground. It was a harrowing experience. But fortunately I made it out by the skin of my neck. Yeah, you made it out, okay. I mean there probably were some guys I don't know, selling T shirts out there, or you know, it was like capital. I saw some photos. I didn't see anybody was anything. At one point, I can say that I can confirm that at one point a couple walk past me. They were walking a dog. I thought at first it may be a dangerous dog, like, I know, like a
pit bull or rottweiler. But it was a Golden Retriever. Now I don't know if it was trained for, you know, an you know attack, like it was an attack Golden retriever. But yeah, yeah, no buck. I was there yesterday. My
my building, the One American News studio. It's right at Constitution Avenue, so literally right out front of the gate where we where we go in and out of the building is the barricades, the razor wire, and the troops with machine guns who every time I film out there, it seems like they don't recognize me, even though the same guy who does it every day, because they always checked me and say, hey, do you credentials? What are you doing? What do you? I work here? Right? I
work here. I was walking around all day. They were about they were actually about um the entire militia, the Trump's men, the President's men, as as Pelosi called it. It ended up being about four people who showed up in Magahats saying that they were that they were Trump supporters. So I think I think we're calling it the unsurrection. It was the unsurrection of March twenty, well, the non surrection. We could go a lot of a lot of things here, Jack.
What was the you know, it's always amazing to be how many of these lib journals out there no so much more than I do about QAnon. The usually things that are supposedly on the right or on the right in some capacity. I'm educated educating all the liberals on. But they are they are experts. These people have PhDs now and q aon. Uh. What was the supposed that the threat that Pelosi was so worried about was that there was a QAnon internet posting about how Trump was
actually gonna take office yesterday, Right, wasn't that what it was? Yeah? So someone posted and for anyone who isn't you know, up to speed on their qan on knowledge, Um, they they posted on these anonymous message boards on the Internet. That's very hard for you know, for anyone to finds to keep taking them down. Change in the title of it. But the idea was so March fourth historically used to
be inauguration day. It was later changed January. And so there were people who were thinking that there was a secret plan afoot and that Trump would actually be brought in using that original inauguration date of March fourth. And so this then, because somebody wrote that somewhere on the Internet, not even on four Chan, it's even a lesser known sight than four Chan, the entire media took that post and blew it up to astronomical proportions. The FBI, the
DHS were writing assessments on it. Fuck and I know you and I both know what that means. And they actually shut down US government yesterday, They shut down the House of Representatives. They had troops marching because of an internet post anonymously on a message board. Unbelievable. And Jack and I both have written threat assessments in our day, Jack for the military and me for the CIA. So you know, Jack, I think it's it's important for everybody
realize threat reporting. If you're not going to Gaye's credibility or if you're just gonna we live in a world of constant threat reporting. It's a fire hose every day. Yeah, if you're going to take every social media posed that some guy fires off because they're mad at whatever and act as if that's some kind of actual threat, people would be you'd be floored, right, that's going on everywhere
all the time. The Internet releases the inner it of you know, anyone that really goes on there, especially through the cloak of anonymimity that is available to so many of these sites, and it's it's actually been a place where people can just kind of release their their you know, pent up anger and frustration in many of these cases.
But for our intelligence community to use this, for our government to use this, and for politicians to use this, We've literally got to the point now where we are taking these far left wing conspiracies, that's what they are, and we're using them to run our government. So I'm taking a switch on it. So we had, we had the unsurrection, we had Joe Biden's un inauguration. So I'm calling this now instead of and on, this is blue
and on. This is all blue and on, meaning that blue checks on social media are the ones who are blowing completely and it's really they're blowing these this alleged threat of another insurrection or coup or whatever out of proportion. But but Jack, and we're speaking to Jack Pisobic of of One American News here. Jack, to me, this is it's intentional. They at some level. A lot of them have to know that this is absurd, but they like
the theatrics. Well. See, people need to understand two things now. Number one is the entire time that Joe Biden has been in office, and I've heard of him as the current occupant of the White House, the entire time Washington, DC has been under military occupation even before he occupied that office. So you know, for those of you who aren't in the district right, I'm I can't park my car.
I literally can't park my car because there are barricades, razor wire, and soldiers with machine guns blocking the way. This has been every single day Joe Biden's been in office, and the local residence of DC are fed up with it. You've got even the DC representative for the district, who's a Democrat or revered Democrat, She's come out against this. You' even had Amy Klobascher in the Senate saying, look, this
is untenable. We cannot continue this. It is Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, and Joe Biden who's basically doing their bidding that is continuing this, and the fact that it's still going on, that we're forcing these soldiers to be out there. It's quite cold in DC right now. It's March, by the way, it's incredibly windy, and it's twenty four to seven that they're standing this watch. It's ridiculous. This is
the twenty first century. If we're worried about something, if you have a credible threat, then go arrest them, right. There's no need for this level of physical security in a day and age where we have drones, where we have we can you know, sting rays, and we can track cell phones, et cetera, et cetera. There's absolutely no reason for this other than trying to turn us into some kind of totalitarian, dystopian hunger games nightmare vision of
what the United States should be. Explain to me what the heck is going on here with this this new story just from today that Lieutenant General Russell Honorey has recommended twenty four seven quick Reaction force a QRF for the military folks out there of DC Guard to protect the capital in his Pelosi ordered review of the Maga riot. What a QRF in addition check to the thousands of troops. I mean, it really is like they think that a brigade size Taliban force is going to descend on the
capital any moment, except of course it's Maga not Taliban. Yeah, I mean the level of deployment that we saw early on with the twenty six thousand. I mean, that's the type of force you would need if like the Chinese were coming up to Chesapeake Bay Rights, or or the Russian Akulas that's their submarines were spotted going going past Norfolk. I mean, this is not it's it's just completely unrealistic
what anyone's possibly thinking of. This is the type of force you would need for a state on state level conflict. If this is I mean, you've worked counter terrorism. This is not how we do if there was an actual terrorist threat. This is not how you would deal with it any way, shape or form. You go as David petrayus, you go as the coin. This is actually the opposite
of coin strategy. By the way, if you go and remember the David Patrey stuffs, even though it didn't work, though, well, this is the exact opposite of what you're supposed to do because because for the reason being for people who aren't read up on that is because when you create such a massive target like this, people have said it actually upsets the populist and potentially increases the occurrence of
this happening. Speaking of Jack Posobic of One America News Network, Jack, I feel like they're going to continue this as long as they can, because this is this is kind of a fundamental plank now of the Democrat Biden administration that they are under that whatever they do is just defied by this premise that the actual government itself is under mortal threat from the opposition, meaning Trump voters. And I think they're going to keep extending this as long as
they can. Look, Folks, when the histories of this are written, and whether we're writing them or the schools are pushing some government line at us, you have to tell everyone that Joe Biden and his coterie of oligarchs occupied our capital city for the entire first few months of his administration. They brought in the military, they brought an armed guards and razor wire to establish the Joe Biden administration. What they do with that remains to be seen, But we
cannot allow this fact to escape us. This is our city, right Remember last year? Last year, hundreds of cities across the United States saw violence that was higher than any year since the nineteen nineties, homicide and violent crimes massive rise. Right, But in some of those states, we couldn't even get the National Guard. Why because they had democratic governors from California, New York, Pennsylvania, Oregon, no National Guard was called in.
Even though these these lootings, these riots, these attacks were taking place night after night Minneapolis and so Minneapolis, they almost burned down the police precinct up there. In Seattle, they took over the armed militants, took over six blocks of an entire of the downtown capital was there at the Chaz right. Yet in DC there was one and albeit yes it was a violent riot that took place, there were a small percentage of people that became violent.
Yet they have used that to create the political theater, to remind everyone who has power keeping behind Buck, they know exactly what they're doing here. They are sending a message to each and every American out there that if
you dissent, this is what you will get. Jack, what what can you tell us about why we haven't yet and we're speaking of Jack Pisobic of One America News, we haven't yet been able to get an explanation, an official explanation for the death of Officer Brian sickniic I just at what point is it clear this is some kind of this is intentional withholding, and it's because they don't want people to know the truth. Well, but this is part of the two tier justice system that we've
been talking about for years. Now Here in the United States, they will use the power of the FBI and their fully pulpit to crowdsource the doxing of maga, grandmas and teenagers who were completely peaceful walking around taking selfies inside the United States Capital. Felt they were on tour. They didn't even break past the velvet ropes. We can all
see that. But why haven't we seen any of the footage, the supposed footage that they tell us they have of Officer sick nic Not a single image of that video has come out. They claim there's a suspect now that originally they said it was a fire extinguisher and that he was bashed in the head, and it was this terrible thing. It was brought up in the impeachment trial. It was used to great political theater by Nancy Pelosi, and of course, obviously we we don't want that to happen.
We honor his service. But she said she used this as a political weapon against Trump and against Trump supporters. Yet when the actual facts come out, it turns out there was no fire extinguisher. They're now saying that the latest theory is that he had a bad reaction to some bear spray. They say there's footage of an individual spraying bear spray, and yet they won't release that footage. Instead, the FBI is going around to Maga Granad moms who many of them didn't even go into the Capitol, and
if they did, we're doing so peacefully. Buck again, the government, the establishment is sending everyone a message, Jack Posobic everybody one American news network. Go check out Jack's latest there and Jackman, stay safe, watch out, watch out for those crazy unsurrectionists on the streets at DC. You take care of yourself, all right. I think I see a pigeon. Hold on, I gotta go. In order to open these stores, we do not say open sesame. We say open Biden.
That's our magic word for open Biden. I love it. Ope, Ope, open Biden. You know what the stars, guys, Nancy Pelosi and Joe Biden are the two most powerful Democrats in the United States of America and Nancy Pelosi and Joe Biden are too old to be doing this. Okay, there there, there, there is a life cycle, there's a clock, there's a look.
It's one of the reasons why I'm concerned about Trump even I've been running at you know, running at seventy seven, seventy eight years old for president, and what are we gonna start having people running in their mid eighties? Get We're gonna elect somebody to be president when they're ninety. Is that really where we're heading with all this? Anyway?
I mean, just you know, Nancy Pelosi. Democrats pretend to be serious people that think through things, and then then then they have Nancy Pelosi as a Speaker of the House. I just can't let that go. It's not something that I'm able to speak speaking of people who are too old for the job. Here's here's the birth Bernie Sands. It's been a long time. We haven't heard from mister Bernie Sanders in a very long time. He has not really fully come forward to tell us what he has
been up to. We are missing the burn. The burn should be with us more because he's a socialist and write out Democrats are pushing for their socialism without everybody actually saying what it is. Bernie is upfront about it here. He is play sixteen. He got young people who want to go to school, want to socialize, want to date, want to do things that young people do, and they can't do it. And I've been unable to do that for the last year, and that has resulted in a
very sharp increase in mental illness in this country. Something by the way that this legislation also deals with. Bernie's right about the dangers and the problems of the lockdown is what it's done to people. But you know that this COVID bill is not actually going to solve all of this, as we know that. But they're using it and they're exploiting it, as we know they do with everything.
And it's just so it's so disappointed. You'd think that during a global pandemic, some of the more partisan impulses of the left could at least be I know they would never be gone, but they would at least be downplayed a bit. But that has certainly not, certainly not happened. In fact of anything, it ignites, it exacerbates extreme partisanship.
Partisanship in the Democrat mine. One one story that I want you to start to think about, because it's going to be a big story we're talking about here in the weeks ahead on the show Minneapolis. I know we've got We've got a great audience up in Minneapolis on the Buck Sexton Show, So thank you all for listening. Minneapolis spends more than one million dollars on barricades ahead of the Derek Chauvin trial next week. Order the Daily Bail here the Derek Chauvin trial for the murder of
George Floyd. Businesses are terrified and rightly show of what's going to happen. Here's what the Daily Wires, sorry, the Daily Mail is reporting. Barbed wire and metal barricades have been erected around the Hennepin County Courthouse, where Chauvin's murder trial is set to start this Monday with jury selection. City, state, and federal leaders have had been holding security briefings dubbed
Operations Safety Net. The multi agency security plan includes closures of certain public buildings and streets, and extra security cops and National Guard deployed. Small business owners are boarding up their windows, erecting fencing. Coalition of seventeen activist groups have vowed to stage a peaceful protest Monday and throughout the trial. We'll see how peaceful it is. Some city officials are
concerned about where this is going to go. A billion dollars worth of damage and fifteen hundred businesses in Minneapolis during the BLM riots before we're impacted, Thenapolis, I'm praying for you, but batting down the hatches Rock and roll, fellow patriots, It's time for Roll Call Facebook dot com, slash Buck sex in tembuck at iHeartMedia dot com. If you want to get in on all the latest on the Roll Call, we gotta check in with our buddy producer Mark. What words are wisdom? Do you have for
us today? What are you doing this weekend? I'm actually going to get a vaccine tomorrow. What yeah? Really? Appointment? How I got lucky? I saw somewhere on Twitter that there were appointments and it was for the Johnson and Johnson one, so only one shot. I'm going to the Javits Center tomorrow.

Wow, good for you, producer, Mark gonna be like a super superman after this, I can I can you know if I cough in your general Well, I haven't seen you in a year, so I haven't if I cough in my general direction, even if I am vaccinative. It's disgusting, but that's true. But if I were to cough right now in your general direction, that would have to be a superhuman cough to hit you that that that spittle would
have to go I don't know, probably about ten miles. Yeah, you'd have to cross a river. I mean, I got pipes because I do radio every day. But that's a real like that's some Yeah, that's like a heat seeking missile. That that's a jay damn of spit. I don't think i'd be able to do that. Yeah, I don't think that'll work. Well. Good for you though, with get with getting the appoyment, get it done. Um any any other fun plans you will missus? Mark? Got anything on the books?

You haven't yet, You haven't yet finalized where you're going right, No, not yet somewhere on Long Island had a little the issue with the condo that we tried to buy, so we're still trying to figure stuff out. Isn't an amazing how much paperwork and stuff is involved in these things, you know,
you signed your life away. You just it's just so much, and you're always thinking like what do I and you know, you go through his paperwork and then all it takes is one annoying neighbor and you're like, God, I wish I hadn't moved here in the first place. So, yeah, I've heard of hoa horror stories, which is something that you have to deal with with a condo. Yeah, I know. Oh gosh, well that's exciting though moving out to the island of Strong known as Strong Island, that'll be fun.
Not the first time I've lived there, so yeah, yeah, I know, you're a Strong Island guy, Brucer Marks Queen's guy. Hold on, Yeah, but we're really talking about the geographic landmasks Long Island, though Queens is technically a part of Long Island. Cake, but it's not you know, you know, I gotta do it, I gotta do it with with our our buddy Ryan grew dusky. I saw him recently and uh, and I was making fun of him because
he kept saying he's from New York. And I was like, Bryan, I mean, Ryan, you're You're not from New York, You're from Queens. He ated that. Yeah, that is just offensive, yeah, said he said. He was like, he was like, how dare you, sir? I was like, look, I'm just I'm just calling it like I see it. I'm taking the snow Princess out this weekend. We're gonna get some Mexican food. Because for me, that's like if if I'm just going, if I'm gonna really you know, get an in a
festive mood. Mexican food really does it for me. I like it. So I'm taking the snow Princess out. We're gonna grabetive. Yeah, I get festive. Do you like wear sobrero? No, not like that, sir. I do not culturally appropriate Mexican culture. I just eat their food. Good heavens, Good heavens. Sounded like you wanted to get festive. Well, I just spent, you know, in general, like if I have a couple a couple of margaritas, you know, I'm gonna I'm gonna get after it a little bit. Disagree is one of
my favorite producer Mark. Now, we don't have to, we don't have to, you know, go there, but we both know that finding a sombrero that would fit my head would also. I'd have to get a special order sombrero. I don't even know if that's possible. You'd have to get one of those novelty ones you see in those like shops when you're on vacation. Yeah, I would have to wear the sombrero that other people wear, the where they have like the giant like fuzzy finger kind of
a thing, like it's intentionally too big. I'd have to get that sombrero. And even then, I'm not sure it would really fit. You know, I do have my special my special sized hat now. So I finally, after so many years of adulthood, I finally have a baseball cap that fits normally over my head because I found an internet site with the'll make hats for people with giant noggins. Well, it's just a baseball cap. Yeah, it's like white, white
and like navy blue hat. That's what I have. Yeah, because I don't think they I don't think they can. They don't pay them. You know, you have to, like, if you're gonna wear a Mets hat, like that's Mets merchandise, technically you gotta. So this is just like we will make you a hat, large head person, and that's what I am, so good thing. I'm not trying to buy you a methat. I don't even know if I've been
able to find that size. Yeah, I had to go to you know, big big bigheadhat dot com or something size would you be like in a fitted hat proson marked weirdly have to go it doesn't exist, buddy, I'm just curious. I'm the I'm the I go into a fitted hat store. Kid. This is to happen when I was younger too, and I'm like, excu smith, sir, I would like to buy a baseball hat so I can look cool like all the rest of my peers. And
they're like, all right, young man. They like try to like you know, They're like here you go, and I'm like, yes, I want a Yankees hat. Don't make fun of me. I want a Yankees hat. And I would try to put it on and they're like it doesn't really fit. And then they try to, and I'm like, you're not actually gonna make my skull smaller. It's not gonna happen. So they would try to pull it down over my head and it wouldn't work, and then I'd feel sad.
And then there was the sadness because I wasn't normal because my head was too big. So I think I told you this true story. I had to when I was a baby. This is this is actually real. I'm not I'm not even kidding. When I'm a baby, uh my mom had to at the pediatrician's um you know,
advice or whatever. Pediatrician's orders. I had to come in i think every like three weeks or four weeks for the first six months, and they took a tape measure around my head because my head was just on the borderline of being so big that they were like, maybe there's a problem and they might have to like drain fluid or something. That's how big my head was. Your poor mother, Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, So we had to go in and do a tape measure around my head.
But I was I was always yes, all right, you jerk, but but I will tell you you, oh, I always was technically normal. Like I was ninety eighth percentile, but I was always technically normal for for for a headsize, so you know, so you can't I wasn't a weird oh okay, but I was pretty close. All right, Let's get into what the folks think about all this. He can write into emails until produce mark. He's being a
big meanie Mike Buck. As a Mississippi resident, I've been critical of our governor's handling of the Wuhan flu and give him little to no credit for reopening. My gut instinct is that he's only reopening now because he's hoping he can prevent a primary challenge when he's up for reelection. There's been significant criticism of him by other Republicans in the state, and he was a really weak rhino that was lucky to win in his first term. Still, I'm
thankful some of the forest will be ending here Shields high. Yeah, yeah, I think I gotta tell you, I think this is something that I didn't really I was. I've told you this. I get so happy at the notion of reopened. I'm so enthusiastic about reopen that I didn't Usually I'm very I don't like to say that I'm cynical, but I a I take a hyper realistic view of things. That's just my That's how I view everything, personal relationship, professional,
world politics. I'm just I'm hyper realistic and it can be very useful for being correct, but you know, it also means that sometimes maybe you come across as a little bit cynical or a little bit Judgmentalum. On this one, I got a little I got a little romanticize, like Yay, Mississippi and Texas are opening, and and then it's like, uh, but they're not really up. But you know, the day a day later, I had to be you know, the usual buck had to kick in, as they are right,
they're not really reopening. They're not really doing what they said they're gonna do. So that's gotta gotta keep that in mind. That's where where this also is. Um. I mean, they're really look it matters. I mean I was right to be happy about the policy. I'm not saying that, but there were other factors I involved in the Texas and Mississippi decisions. And Governor Reeves from what I just said, people have said he's really not been good on this.
I know, Governor Abbott hasn't been good on this all long, So Mike, very very very fair points man. And by the way, I'm with you. I'm still I'm thankful that some of the forests will be ending here. You wrote, that's where I I just wanted to stop, right, I just want the madness to stop. Alex rights heybucking Mark. As a fellow New Yorker, I'm tired of everyone beating up on the Big Apple. Like you, I love New York City, even though we're going through a rough patch.
The city has been knocked down before and has always rebounded. My wife and I are currently in the process of buying a place in Chelsea. I'm putting my money where my mouth is and placing a bet on New York City's triumphant return. If everyone bails, the place will definitely go down in flames. Let's keep our shields high and protect New York City. Love the show. I listen every day and never miss a chance to pass the buck. Alex,
thank you so much and appreciate your support. And it's good to have other sound thinkers here in New York City. And yeah, look, I mean I love New York I've been a New Yorker my whole life, and I've been somebody who defended this place for years and years when everyone's telling me to leave and everything else. It just has been so hard to like this place. With the taxes and the nonsense and the craziness that's been going on.
It's been a real challenge. And you know, I think I'm hopeful that it comes back sooner than even I would anticipate. So Alex, I hear you on all that, and I would like the city to go back to what it was. New York used to be special enough that even with all the downside, I never question why I was living here. This last year has been the first time where I really felt like it wasn't the
tradeoff wasn't worth it. You know. Maybe it's like if you're in your personal relationships with personal life, maybe some of you have dated somebody, you know, before you're married, you dated somebody who you always felt like, well, maybe they've got this shortcoming or that shortcoming, but there's one thing about them. For some of the guys, it might
be she's really hot. For some of the girls, it might be, you know, he's really funny or whatever, right, but there was something that overcame whatever your qualms were for me. It's like this year in New York City was the first time looking at my relationship in New York City. I thought, I don't know, I don't know if I don't know if you're pulling your weight in this relationship New York. You know, I don't I don't
know if you're really getting it done anymore. So I hope that that changes, you know, I hope that that changes, John Buck, I heard a few nights ago you like chinchillas, and I thought that if you wanted one, you can train them to become more diurnal. If you want a small critter, you can adapt to your schedule. A ferret is ideal as they will adjust to you and they sleep eighteen hours a day. So John, you know, ferrets
are actually a surprisingly popular pet that I've read. I don't think you're allowed to have them in New York City. And I also there's something about a ferret that's I would always be worried it's and this is just I know, maybe this is my anti ferret bias coming out. You know, did you know that was a thing, Producer Mark, Because I just came up with a term that's new. Yeah, new anti ferret bias is that I always feel like
a ferret is gonna bite me. There's something about them, maybe because they're, you know, a weasel or related to weasels, and and I just feel like a ferret's gonna bite me. I don't know what it is. Um. So you're saying you'd rather have things like an otter in your home or a fox, and you're not worried about them biting you or anything, but a ferret is you're lying. Yeah, really, an otter is not gonna bite you, dude. They're always chilling on their back, cracking open mollusks. Otter the otter.
But a fox, no fox is a little that. I'm a little crazy on that one. Yeah. Debrah aka snow Princess actually pulled up a photo on her phone of what a fox's teeth looked like, and they are. They have like, uh like canines that are super long and sharp and look like razor blades. So like, yes, technically that's probably not. But I mean otter looks like it's just smoked a blunt or something. He's on his back, he's chilling. Otters. Every photo look out of an otter.
It looks like they're cracking open a can of pringles and just hanging out in the in the water. It's it's like it's like me on pool day. So I can't I don't even have a response, so I'm just saying, yeah, I'm just saying an otter would be be a great I need somebody on Team Buck who has a pet otter to write in and send us some photos, like I know one of you does. I know we have millions of people who listen. I know I usually say
hundreds of thousands. I'm actually being modest. We actually now have millions of people, um, you know, a month a month who are listening to this show. So I need one of you Team Buck who has a pet otter or a pet fox or both. You gotta write in, tell us what it's like and send us some photos. So that likely a zookeeper or an aquarium worker, yeah, or somebody who might it's probably somebody who has an
animal rescue. I'm sure we got somebody with an animal rescue out there, but you know, tell us what they're like, because I'm really curious, and you can tell me if if I'm completely crazy that I think these would be fun pets. More roll call to kick us off into the weekend, Chuck hey Buck and producer Bark. Here's a quick observation for your next roll call. People often call Joe Biden creepy Joe, but have you noticed how creepy it is that Kamala Harris shadows him at almost every
move he makes. She's always lurking behind him when he speak at the podium or shuffling around the room. It's almost like she's standing bidy to flect questions. Um, I don't mean, Chuck, I think that she's the vice president. I think the vice president is usually in the background all the time. I don't. I don't know if I find that one. I don't know, Chuck, I gotta think more of I don't. I don't really see that one. I'll be honest with you, but I appreciate your writing
in and maybe I'm maybe I'm. I also don't watch that middy Biden speeches. To be honest with you, I don't. I don't really spend a lot of time thinking about what Biden's next words will be because I think Biden doesn't really here a real over prompter. I'm gonna read some more words, and I'm gonna look with squinty eyes into the camera and maybe I'll start yelling for no apparent reason. Then I'll have a little bit of blonde hairs on my legs and the kids will come by.
And I'm from Delaware, but sometimes I like to sound like I'm from a different part of the country because it makes me seem more approachable. Man. Yeah, anyway, you got the Joe Biden guys. Guys deeply, deeply inept and unimpressive. But this is who the president is. Let's see here, TJ. Buck. Having Trump primary and critical Republicans and red districts is all well and good. But getting good Republican candidates and purple districts currently blue districts I think should be the
bigger priority for twenty twenty two. For example, I live in the third Congressional Congressional district of Iowa, where our current US representative Democrat Cindy Asney one with forty nine percent vote against a milktoast David Young, who lost his incumbency to her in twenty eighteen. By comparison, though Trump actually won the third district in vote count fifty percent. Well, I don't have the time of the resources. I'm sure this is not the only example of congressional districts where
Trump won but the Republican congressional candidate lost. Will be good to see Trump's new pack target and support new and better candidates for such districts, in addition to those Republicans who have been critical against Trump as in fact, as I said earlier, districts like mine should probably take priority over those where Republicans already sit tj astute observations. I do believe that Trump will be helping to pick who he thinks they're strong candidates too. It won't just
