Deep Dive on MS-13

Buck Sexton, Welcome to the buck Sexton Show. Everybody rates to have you here with me as always eight four four nine eight five eight war four buck. A privilege and a pleasure to get to hang out with you in the hut. We've got a bunch of things to talk about today, and instead of just keeping you in suspense, I figured and give you something of a roadmap for

we're heading on the show. We will start it off with a talk about the state of the immigration debate right now, and that will lead us into a deep dive on MS thirteen, which I have been meaning to get to for some time. I have been doing a lot of research on the cartels and the role of the cartels in the as bad as it has been

in living memory. Drug trade in this country, well, m S thirteen also plays quite a role, and the Trump administration has elevated MS thirteen in the conversation about what the costs of immigration illegal immigration are and what it means to not have a secure border. And I will get into some of that discussion with you. I think you'll find some of what I have to tell you about m S thirteen to be both fascinating and terrifying.

And here is a a preview at the heart of some of the most vicious and vile stuff that m S thirteen does is in fact, a long history of devil worship of Satanism. We will talk about it. You're probably thinking, what, Oh, yes, my friends, I will give you some of the background on that. And and this is not some theory that I've come up with. This is based on those who have done a lot of research into the group Satanism, and that all of a

sudden begins to explain much of what you've read. Much of the headlines on this vicious group and what it does with machete is another edged implements. So that will be later on in this hour. Also talk a bit about what's happening with the memo so far. My memo predictions I think have been the spot on. We will look at the Democrat memo and maybe a little bit of a talk about the wake up that some have had,

although I don't think it will last very long. On the economy, meaning that the whole debt deficit thing might be worth talking about that again, maybe that's something that deserves a bit more attention than it has gotten previously. But we will get there, and then third hour will have some fun. There's a space shuttle, you know, a space shuttle launch come out of the coast. Have a few laughs, you know, a space shuttle launch today. That was fun. We've also got to talk. We might do

some campus reform stuff, right is that? Who put out the clip? Yeah? Do they like it when Trump says it? No? But what about Obama saying it? Oh, isn't that a bit of a bit of a shock. Oh, my friend Lawrence Jones, by the way, just got picked up by campus reform, I believe unless I'm yes, Lawrence, a colleague of mine from the Blaze previously big big high five and congratulations to Lawrence. So the third hour have some fun. Um. And by the way, I got your notes yesterday about

the UH. If you didn't hear it, I mean you should go back and listen to the podcast for the end of the show on the wisdom, the wisdom for all of us that comes from children who are in palliative and terminal care. Um. I mean it's still I actually can't talk to you about it much more right now because it starts to make me tear up. But it's really worth listening to. If you didn't get a chance to yesterday, you can just go on iTunes or on the I heart app Um, it's not for me.

It's from this doctor who compiled it's a It's an amazing and really powerful and moving project he did, this pediatrician who works with terminal UH pediatric patients and just what matters to them, because what matters to them is what actually matters to all of us. So I hope you get a chance to listen to if you did not already, And I appreciate the outpouring of of UH well that you liked it, that you thought that that was a worthwhile place for us to take the show.

So with all of that, we delve into the latest. The latest on immigration. For example, uh, Chief of Staff Kelly, General John Kelly had some interesting comments today to say about this. We'll get to those in just a little bit. But first Trump is setting this up as quite a battle over immigration. We have a shutdown. Woman, what is the February? Wait, when is it supposed to be? When is the shutdown is supposed to happen? Guys, I'm getting soon that much. I know it's soon, So I'll check

the date on that. It slipped my mind. But I don't want to give you the wrong one. Uh. But Trump made quite clear where he stands on this today. And this is what the commander in chief had to say. If we don't change the legislation, if we don't get rid of these loopholes, what killers are allowed to come into our country and continue to kill gang members? And we're just talking about MS thirteen. There are many gang members that we don't even mention. If we don't change it,

let's have a shutdown. We'll do a shutdown, and it's worth it for our country. I'd love to see a shutdown if we don't get this stuff taken care of. We have to shut it down because the Democrats don't want safety and unrelated but still related, they don't want to take care of our military. Then shut it down.

Trump knows that he won the last shutdown. He knows that, Uh, the Democrats had assumed until this most recent, this recent face off, that they would always win because the media is in their pocket, right, the media is a tool of the d n C. And they figured that they last time, just to take a step back for a moment, everyone, they thought that last time they could be the ones to say we will block funding for the government. We are in the minority, but the Republicans are guilty of

causing the shutdown. You know, this is as I said. I think it's a pretty accurate. It's like they were breaking into a house and screaming about how somebody else was a burglar. It couldn't have been any more apparent. Now, I think that the difference here was largely Trump. And I've said that all along. I referred to him as the X factor in the shutdown fight. Um, and that's

what happened. I think this most recent, in this most recent iteration, so the shutdown that looms right now, I think Trump realizes this has to be used as leverage in the immigration debate and the negotiations. Trump's opening bid to the other side was more generous than I would have started off with his opening gambit, the idea that he give legalization to one eight million. That's if you would asked me six months ago, what's Trump does, he'd probably say, I'm Trump and I've got a majority in

both houses. I don't you know, Democrats, you better get in line here. You know, there's none of this You're gonna dictate because at some point, what's the purpose everybody, mean, let's be honest here, why do we even vote for

the Republicans? If you do, I know some of your like Buck, I do not even but if you did go out there and vote, or maybe do some campaign work, even volunteering, whatever it is, right, just trying to convince your you're foolish neighbors on social media to stop supporting the Democrat left. What's the point of doing all that if in fact, the Democrats will get their way at

a policy level even when they're in the minority. And I would also I would be remiss if I did not bring into this discussion that Trump one the election in large part because of his stance on immigration, because of what he's been saying, and he's now put out there the uh, the key components that he would want wait seventy two hours remaining to avert anover another. We only got seventy two hours. I thought it was. That's why I was like, Wow, this is really coming, this

is coming up fast. I've been talking about memo memo. Right, it's seventy two our Thursday. The government shutdowns right here, so we're we're poised. For some reason, I had in my head it was Monday, and then I got confused for a second, and you know, I didn't get enough sleep last night. No, but this is gonna happen in the next few days or not. I think they're gonna kick the can down the road. I know what the

other bills are. We'll talk about McCain was the other guy that's with him, Is it McCain Coon's right, Yeah, that's what I thought, McCain Coon's. We'll talk about the McCain coon Coon's planned in a second or in a few minutes. But first Trump has said, look, you need border security, you need to get the following in order

and we'll make you a really good deal. And I've seen some of the Democrats sur gets out there on TV on the various channels, and they keep saying, well, it's only you know, of the illegal immigrant population or something like that that would be covering os DAKA, and so Trump should only get of border security. And this is just such a preposterous bargaining position for them to take, as if to think about what they're saying. The Democrat Party's position now on immigration is we will start to

enforce the rules. We will start to obey the law more, enforce the law more if you give us a large constituency of soon to be Democrat voters. But but you'll notice that the law as something that matters and that's something that should be enforced. The law is in fact a Republican issue. Like it's as though there are platforms and rule of law as a Republican party platform, and Democrats are like, I don't know so much about that

rule loss stuff. Not an immigration that's what they're telling us, folks. You'll notice that Republicans are willing to at least Trump is willing to look at this and perhaps make a concession about those who are in violation of law in exchange for a return to rule of law and border security, and Democrats are saying, oh, you know, I don't know if you're gonna get that border security. Everybody. Shouldn't everyone want this, shouldn't this be it's supposed to be bipartisan.

For years Democrats were saying they're all about border security too. And then there's another component of this that just is really coming to the forefront, I think this week, and that is that you'll notice that with immigration, we we are forced to have a debate at the at the polar opposite ends of the spectrum are at the extremes right now. And Trump is right to do this, but he's fighting fire with fire. And this is part of why MS there team, which I'll talk to you about

in more detail in a few minutes. But this is part of why we see that the Democrats only want to talk about quote dreamers, they only want to talk about DOCCA, and yet we know that DOCCA is just the beginning. DOCCA is the start of a much larger program and demand for amnesty. On the other side, the Rubio GOP establishment approach to this issue, stretching back to the Romney era, which in political terms, feels like the Paleolithic error or something. Now, right, I mean that's like whoa,

it's way back when. Although although Mit MIT's running for Senate, I think, right, we haven't. It's not official yet, but it's kind of official. Um, you know, mitted or quit it. Uh so mit may be running anyway. The old school Republican position on this was, you know, the Rubio approach was, well, you know, let's create a pathway and we'll work with existing immigration infrastructure and everything. And what you notice about this is that that then lends itself to just becoming

a giant amnesty discussion. You know, there'll be a pathway to learn English, will play back taxes, fines. It's like blah blah blah, amnesty. That's what the discussion quickly turns into with Trump, because there's a wall, because there's end to change migration, because there's actual changes to immigration policy. It's not just arguing over the application of discretion within the executive branch, right, And that's what Obama was abusing so much during his time in office, was you know,

will enforce these laws. We will enforce those laws. I like this. I don't like that I'm a one man legislature. That's the Obama administration approach. Trump is not saying, yeah, let's just hope that, you know, we enforce these laws better, although that's certainly a part of this immigration debate and the negotiations. Trump is saying, let's actually make changes to the laws so that we can take action on those changes that will bring about markedly different outcomes for our

immigration system and to chain migration. And you know, a wall, right, a wall is a thing. A wall is or is not. There's no well, you know, we're gonna enforce the wall today. We're not gonna enforce the wal tomorrow. If it's there,

it's there. What you see is that instead of engaging on their terms, which is just a haggling over the cost of amnesty, which was what Rubio and the gang of the Gang of six, the Gang of eight, the Gang of however many senators gang of six I think, or not the Gang of eight whatever, uh, but they were haggling over the cost of amnesty, meaning how much is this amnesty gonna cost us? Trump is saying, Okay,

you want amnesty, you want a limited amnesty. How about this, You're gonna give US the following and the Democrats already setting themselves up to walk away from it entirely. I think I am hoping that they try to take this to the mat and they try to force the Republicans on another shutdown because they are weakened after the last one. Trump won the last game a chicken. You know, the the Democrats, Schumer and Pelosian company, they pulled off the road.

They're like, whoa, that was scary. So he has to keep his eye on the prize this time around. And instead of making it a big debate over the cost of amnesty, you now have Trump saying, what about ms their team? What about the murders that are occurring in this country? What about the U. S Citizens who are losing their lives to illegal aliens because of sanctuary city policies, because of the lawlessness that Democrats embrace. Oh you notice

that is a powerful counterpoint to the dreamers. Are just all the all valedictorians that are curing diseases and just doing the jobs Americans won't do. And like everyone's crying, Trump's like, yeah, you know who else is crying? The people that have lost their family members to gang violence from illegal aliens. They're crying. Oh yeah, he understands this fight. And that's where we are right now. And there's a lot of reason I think to be um optimistic about

Trump winning this winning winning this round again. I am hopefully he was the X factor last time. All right, I'm running late here. I gotta run into a break eight four four two five. Do I have the right read on this? Do you have any thoughts on it or anything else you want me to talk about. Hit me up on those lines, Team, I will be right back. Six thousand official data registrants, and uh, the President sent over what amounts to be two and a half times

that number to one point eight million. The difference between six one point a million were the people that some would say we're too afraid to sign up, others would say we're too lazy to get off their asses. But they didn't sign up. So the President, shockingly, you said okay, one point eight million. And then probably the biggest shock was in a path to sit a ship. Um, that's beyond what anyone could have imagined. General Kelly or White House Chief of Staff. Kelly is correct about the kind

of offer this is. He's noting this isn't just DOCCA, this is DOCA plus. This is anybody who could claim to be covered. And I would remember I told you that it's not just those that are under the doctor program that are going to be an issue here, and they're just I would note, they're beating them to the past here right there. They're they're getting to this first, because all that was going to happen was that the seven hundred thousand or six hundred eighty thousand, or six

or nine thousand. Uh, we're going to balloon into two or three million the moment that you legalize the six thousand, because those who didn't apply, as Kelly pointed out, we're just gonna come forward and say, oh, well, but you know, there's a there's an equal protection argument here, and I should be covered under this program too, and I was scared of the federal government and you know, etcetera, etcetera. But he did say that they were too lazy to

get off their rear ends. That was not the word

he used. And then none other than Jim Acosta, today chief White House Pondit, pretending to be a correspondent for CNN, he decided to have a have a go with the question at Sarah Huckaby Standers chief staff saying that so much Dreamers may just have been too lazy to get off their asses, just on the face of it, not just a wildly offensive comment about these undocumented immigrants from Look, the only person that's actually offered a solution is this administration.

The President has been a champion of giving one point eight million documents recipients and DOCTA eligible people a pathway to citizenship, and he's laid out a plan and a solution that actually addresses both Republicans and Democrats concerns. I think it's hard to argue with that. On the surface of that, it wasn't it just a It's just an offensive comment, though, Isn't it just on its surface? I think that's something you would have to decide for yourself.

I would note that, you know, Sarah Huckaby Centers is like a costa really action talks. Jim Acosta walks. I mean, this is nonsense, But there you have it. Oh, isn't it Isn't this offensive? That's the whole argument here is emotion. Isn't it offensive? It's racist? It's so unfair all this stuff Trump's Look, I understand and this is why I try to withhold some of the dare I say, you know, fire and fury. Now, this is why I try to withhold some of my criticism. I don't fail to air

it here on the show. But I don't go all and oh my gosh, you sold out the base and go to like you know, Trump con one or something and freak out, because hold on a second, what if Democrats just show with this whole doc negotiation they didn't want to negotiate. That's what I think we're about to find out, folks, And that's pretty big. He's holding the line for America. Buck sex in his back. MS thirteen recruits to our broken immigration system, violating our borders, and

it just comes right through. Whenever they want to come through, they come through. It's much tougher now since we've been there. But we need much better border mechanisms and much better border security. We need the wall. I'm going to get the wall. We don't have the wall. We're never going to solve this problem. President Trump saying we need a wall if we're going to deal with m S thirteen. He's right, that's a necessary component all the strategy to

degrade and defeat this transnational criminal gang. I wanted to spend some time on the show here telling you about MS thirteen or Mara Salvatruccia thirteen. It is only possible. This gang is only possible. It's it's reach and it's long and bloody reign of terror in over forty U s States now in different neighborhoods that it has been terrorizing for for decades um. It's only possible because of illegal immigration. That's we'll get into how and why in

a moment, But just some some background. I mentioned to you that Satanism has not just ties to or that Masalvatrucha M S their teen has ties to Satanism and devil worship, and in fact goes to the very origins of the gang. So here's what happened. In nine seventy nine,

a civil war broke out in Al Salvador. Would end up killing somewhere in the neighborhood of seventy to a hundred thousand people, which keep in mind Al Salvador is a very small country, so that's a large percentage of the population that doesn't even include all of the displaced and and brutalized and raped and all the terrible things that were happening in El Salvador. And during that period you had a number of refugees, immigrants, legal and illegal,

coming into the United States from El Salvador. I think over the period of the Civil War, which went on for quite some time, something like seven hundred and fifty thousand El Salvadorans came in the United States. And look, it goes without saying over them are in no way affiliated with or partake in gang activity. The problem, though, is that that less than one percent has been a terrible blight and a vicious scourge on many US cities

and stretching even beyond major urban centers. As I said, it's in forty two states, I believe, but you know, at this point, it's in any in any place that has urban centers, and in any Latino immigrant population. The Satanic origins go back to the earliest days of the MS thirteen gang. It was initially called the MS Stoners. They like to smoke weed. They were based in Los Angeles. You had El Salvadorans who had fled the Civil War. They were in Los Angeles, they were part of this

community there and they were into smoking weed. Petty criminal activity, and so they were the Mara Salvatruca stoners. Mara means gang and Salvatruca is the peasants. It refers to the peasants who were trained to fight in the in the war, right, so it's kind of like gang of peasant warriors. That's what Mara Salvatrucchi is. I'll get to the thirteen in a second. Initially, the El Salvadoran showed up and they

wanted to This is in Los Angeles. Los Angeles was the epicenter of this, well, the founding of the gang and also for a long time an epicenter of the

MS group. And they lived near the Mexican predominantly mex And community in Los Angeles and came into contact with a gang called the Eighteenth Street Gang, and that set off a longstanding feud between the Mexican gang bangers and the Al Salvadorans, who felt that they were being h picked on, beaten up, attacked by the by the You know, these are guys mostly in their late teens and into their twenties, and so MS and Eighteen Street Gang in

Los Angeles in the eighties or so. We're in this long standing blood feud, but some of the earliest practice practitioners, some of the earliest founders and members of the M. S. Gang, promoted this notion of how they were tied to Satanism and demonic activity and Satan worship so much so that actually if you see even present day MS thirteen gang bangers, whether we're talking about Central America, which became another major hub.

In fact, that Central America is almost where the MS thirteen virus spread and then took hold of the of the host and and it went from being an infection to a pandemic in the countries of Honduras and El Salvador and Guatemala. Also why I would note those countries, particularly Al Salvador and Honduras, for a period in the mid two thousands had the highest per capita murder rate in the Western world, and I think had the highest per capita murder rates of any country not at war,

not in the mid midst of an active conflict. So you have this early demonic Satan worshiper component of the M. S. Gang. And that's why to this day in prisons you'll see MS Gang members who have something called lagara on them, which is uh devil horns. It's a reference to Satan's clause and that's their gang symbol. They make this symbol with their hands, but the symbol is supposed to represent the clause of Satan. Now, this is obviously meant to

intimidate rival gangs. It's also meant to make them seem more fearsome. But it's not just rhetorical. The Satanic worship of the early remember this gang has been around for decades. Of the early m S Gang meant that they engaged in ritual slaughter of animals and then within a short period of time escalated that to the ritual slaughter of

human beings. And by the way, those of you who have little ones listening, this may be a time when you this is definitely a kind of a sixteen and up conversation we're about to get into here about the M S thirteen gang. So just fair warning on that for a moment. No profanity obviously, but the descriptions I'm going to give you or not stuff that I would

want little ones to hear. So MS thirteen has Satanic worship in the in its origins, and that's why even within recent years you have of after these horrific ritual gangland murders where they will take a machete and they will in fact decapitate a corpse. They will cut the body up into many small pieces. They will remove the entrails and arrange it in a pentagram supposed to be the sign of the devil, and leave it for people

to find that way. This is all an extension of the early founding and lure of MS thirteen as having roots in Satanism. And this is all well established. Brother, There's a professor at University of Southern California who's written probably the most comprehensive work on MS thirteen as a transnational gang, has actually written a book on this, and he goes into this at some length. But when you have some of these m S thirteen gangsters in custody, and I know for a lot of listening you probably

have MS thirteen in your area. It's gotten more attention in recent years because they're in northern Virginia. They're right across the right, across the Potomac from Washington, d C. And there are been some terrible murders and people found and as I mentioned, in these kind of ritual sacrifice, uh circumstances within a few minutes of our nation's capital, right, I mean, just just next door so to speak, in

northern Virginia and Alexandria area. Um and the spread of m S. Thirteen has been going on since the late nineties into the early two thousands into all these different states. But when they arrest some of these gang bangers, and the term for in the mafia, you'd be considered a maide guy. You know, you're a made man. They referred to as a homeboy. So if you are officially a part of m S. Thirteen, you're called the homeboy and you get a thirteen minute long beat down to be

formally inducted into the group. That usually happens that's by the people that are your your new fellow homeboys. But that's also after usually you've committed an act of extreme violence to get into the gang as part of the gang initiation. But when they have some of these quote homeboys and custom it, they'll say that they'll tell investigators, why do you do this with the beast made me do it? Reference to the devil, and that sometimes the

devil asks you to do things for him. I mean, these are quotes from transcripts of interviews with murderers from within the animals that from recent years in the MS thirteen gang, and they also have a long history of brutal rape as a tactic of of terror and torture. And so these guys are so vicious and violent that other gangs sometimes are surprised, although not the Mexican cartels because they're just as bad, but other gangs in some of these areas are like, whoa, these guys are brutal.

They act in a really savage fashion, and that's how they've built their reputation over all these years. The thirteen, I would know, it comes from the thirteenth letter of the alphabet UH, and it has to do with M or m May, which is the Mexican Mafia. The Mexican Mafia was the most powerful prison based gang in California and they they werethy um third party, so to speak. That created a truce between the Mexican Eighteenth Street Gang and MS thirteen. But then so then so that's how

they took on the Mexican Mafia. Thirteen as a we're kind of it's almost like a merger, thinking like a gang merger. Marasalva Trucia and the Mexican mafia. And this is back in the nights. In late nineties, they started deporting some of the worst offenders from MS thirteen to Central America. Well, that's when these guys with the so called street cred of having been gang bangers in l A and dozens of cities across the country, but predominantly

than the biggest one was definitely at Los Angeles. They would show up in impoverished Honduras, uh in impoverished and depopulated, and just in despair El Salvador, and they would take all of their gang activity and skill sets, so to speak, and recruit down there. And unlike Los Ange Angelists, the police forces in Honduras and El Salvador were ill equipped

to deal with hardened gang members and their tactics. So all of a sudden they became so very powerful that the police were terrified of dealing with them, and their power grew tremendously. In so then you had the US outposts of MS thirteen as well as the major base of external operations in Honduras, Nicola, I'm sorry, Honduras, Al Salvador, and Guatemalan on Nicaragua uh and they were using the border, and they were using our lax immigration laws to go

back and forth. So if the heat got to be too much for an MS gang banger in Los Angeles, he could take refuge with his MS brothers and sisters in El Salvador or in Honduras and continue operations there and and go back and forth. There was a way of evading law enforce and scrutiny, a way of evading police.

And so this is how the gang was able to exploit our lacks border security, lacks immigration policies, sanctuary city policies, especially in places like Los Angeles, where law enforcement was was not willing to work with federal authorities to deal

with this problem. And this is how you have a gang that now has estimated to have eighty two maybe a hundred thousand actual members, whatever that means, that, as I said, is in over forty states of the Union and is one of the most violent and vicious gangs in the history of this country. Is responsible for thousands of murders, assaults, rapes. It's just and and the appalling level of brutality and lack of respect for fellow human beings and for life. That's the calling card of this group.

That is what m S. Thirteen is first foremost about. Whatever you think they're unwilling to do, whoever you think they won't kill because the person is helpless, not a threat to them. That's who they go after. And they will gut their victims and make a satanic display of their entrails because of the origins of the group, that's who they are, that's how they make their name. And Trump wants to take them on no more. Oh but we don't. We're worried about different communities feeling like law

enforcement is singling them out. Now he wants them gone. As he once said, they are bad Embrais, and he is correct. These are bad people. Gang members need to get sent back to the countries from which they came, and gang members who are US citizens need to spend long terms in prison for their violent acts. And MS their team is a true blight, a scourge and infection in this country that needs to be dealt with. But you can't deal with it effectively. People can run back

and forth across the border. You can't deal with it effectively if you have sanctuary cities in place, and for each of the victims of this group and a quick Google search will show you that they have been victimizing communities for years in the most horrific fashion, including countless Latino victims, young women, young girls walking back to us

from school, and the worst of the worst everyone. And I don't think that it's an accident that had had Satanic origins the group ideologically, and I'm not overplying that. By the way, their gang symbol is based in Santanism. So remember this the worst of the worst, and Trump wants to take them on, and the Schumers and the Pelosi's of the world want to make excuses, and they just want votes, and they don't want to deal with

the problem. They don't want to tackle this issue and make law enforcement, give law enforcement the tools and the leeway to eliminate m s their teen as a threat from our community. So that's the that's what I've been thinking about talking about for some time. I think it's important to know the background of that. And that's why when you have people over at MSNBC say nobody's ever heard of ms their team, that's an insult. It's an insult.

It's an insult from an idiot, but it's an insult. Nonetheless, all right, we'll take some calls and we'll get into some memo stuff in the next Our team must stay right there. President Trump made a very serious and sincere offer of goodwill with the reforms that he sent to the Hill. That is what we should be working off of. Those are the bipartisan negotiations that the Majority leader is conducting on our behalf. So we're not going to bring

immigration legislation through that the President doesn't support. We're working on something here in the House. We're working on biparts and negotiations. It's going to be a bill that we support that the President supports. All right, Well, we'll see. We'll see if that's Paul Ryan there, we'll see what happens with this immigration immigration showdown right now. Uh, let's take some We've got lots of calls here, let's do this. Uh. Ted in Florida. Ted, welcome the Buck Sexon show. Hi,

how's it going. It's good man, Thanks for the call, all your points of view. I love your take on intelligence as well. So what I'd like to see is, uh, I'd like to see our Republican representatives get more in lockstep like the Democrats have, and let's force some of this legislation through. Well, the problem Ted, as you know, is that the Democrats and the Senate will use the filibuster and they that's why you need to get a

sixty vote threshold. Right, that's the problem. So we can't get any legislation through as long as Democrats are willing to use the filibuster against it. But I'm with you

that this should be all in. And you know, I think that Trump and and the Republicans need to be making the case as strongly as they can that Demo crats are they want a legal immigration open as an issue to fund raise off of with their base, and they want they actually don't want to solve the issue of illegal immigration because they would like continue the legal immigration going forward. And they're just not acting in good

faith on this. Yeah, it's a it's a tough decision, but I would like to see some of the things that we're forced down basically our throats, I hear you. Yeah, Well, it's you know, their their side seem to just get things like Obamacare. We can't seem to get ours all already, go that they had sixty Remember if you're back in the Obamacare days. Thanks for calling in Ted appreciate it, Sandy and swamp Scott mass real quick. Sandy got about forty five seconds. Wanted to get you in thank you.

Hick stops by the way, I hope so the buck never stops it? Okay. The pointer I wanted to bring up is all the money that they're talking about up ending on our illegals. The Moneys are talking about its spending on this harbor harble gang. Why do we not take care of our seniors and the people that are in social security? Why do they allegate money and can do it? Alligate money to the illegal, but they can't

allegate and put back into it. Danny, I think the answer we gotta run here a second with thank you for your call. I think the answer is this is why we got Trump. We'll be right back. He's back with you now, because when it comes to the fight for truth, the fuck never stops. Welcome back to the Bucks X and show everybody our two rocking and rolling here.

If you missed our deep dive on the MS thirteen gang, it's origins, it's satanic ideology, you should definitely go back and listen to the podcast of the show, and you should hopefully do that any day you miss any part of it. It is the Bucks acton show on iTunes. Check it out there, and thank you as always for joining me here. I see we've got a lot of

lines litt We will get to that shortly. I wanted to switch gears for a moment here with a little bit of Russia memo FISA abuse stuff, because here we are now looking at the Democrat memos release, and that's getting a lot of attention and a lot of people are saying, hold on a second, what's what's gonna happen with the Democrat memo. I already made my prediction on that, and we've got it saved, so we'll see if I'm right. Um, although there's a there's a redaction game that may be

played here. I'll explain what I mean by that in just a moment. But first, Carter Page. Let's not forget Carter Page, Naval Academy grad by the way, he's at the center of all this stuff, right. It was leaks to the press about Carter Page and about the fives A warrants on him, which I would know it is illegal to leak that to the press. It was leaks about Carter Page, that we're essential in the whole Russia collusion narrative to begin with, and yet Carter pages running around.

He was on Laura Ingram show last night on Fox News. He was on George Stefanopolis his show on Not To We can choose with? Is it who's the Papadopoulis? He's not. It's not George, but it's Steve Papadopoulos, right, So it's Steve Papadopoulos and George Stephanopolis. There we go, fun name fund names to say pretty sure that the ulos is

the suffix of someone's name if they're from the Greek Peloponnese. Hey, if Aristo Paracolo I lived in Greece for a summer, as long there's fun times, drank a lot of uzzo, hung out a lot of foreigners. Stories for another day. Maybe you're like Buck, forget about the memo tell us about staying out late and drinking uzzo as uh, twenty two year old or twenty one year old or whatever in Greece. I will say it was good times, my friends. Greek food is great. Greek bureaucracy makes the US Postal

Service look like the you know, Amazon. I t department. But Greek food, Greek beaches, good stuff. All right, back to Stephanopolis, carter Page, what's going on there? Uh? Stephanopolis asked carter Page, Well, let me just play the let's get into this for a bit here, see, because you'd think that if this guy were at the center of some international conspiracy. Carter Page, not Stephanopolis. We just know

he's a Hillary plant in the media. But if you, if you you think that maybe this guy would either lay a little low or given that the Muller probe has already swept up people, they're prosecuting people who haven't really done anything with regard to Russia collusion. They've either lied or they didn't pay their taxes or those are the allegations. I would not, that's none of that's been proven yet. Carter Pages run around given interviews and he

saying stuff like this. You should hear. But you've been under surveillance from the Court of since October two thousand and sixteen. Since that time, have you ever spoken to Donald Trump? I didn't never spoke with him, since I never spoke with him any time in my life. You've never spoken to Donald Trump in your life? No email, no text nothing like that. Never. Now I need someone to explain this to me. How could Trump? How could

Trump be involved in a conspiracy with the Kremlin? Where Carter Page is the focal point of all of this, right, Carter Page is what the the the anti Trump, never Trump, throw Trump in prison chorus, that's what they hang their hat on. Really, that in the meeting at Trump Tower right with the Russian lawyer. That didn't go anywhere. But

that's it. That's all they've got. And here we are, over a year into this thing, and that's all they've got, despite the fact that as we know, as we know thanks to Devin Nonez and others, Trey Goudy uh, they were running fights a warrant on this guy. Don't you think if he were part of an espionage conspiracy with the Russians against the United States, wouldn't there be some kind of a charge maybe at some point would there be wouldn't there be a problem that this guy would face.

Wouldn't he be afraid to go on TV and say things like I never spoke to Trump. How is it possible that carter Page, this guy of honestly no particular significance, really, who claims we have never spoken to Trump could be the center of this Russia collusion Maelstrom. If he's never spoken to Trump, how does how does that work? I'm just wondering. It's did one of Trump's like lower level people just concoct this whole scheme and you know, run around with Putin and the whole thing is that? Is

that what we're supposed to believe? This is fantasy land stuff, folks, right, we all we all get that, I would assume. And this guy Popadopolis, the most damn anything about him is that he shared or he said something in a conversation with somebody in London that is information that he could have gotten off the front page of Breitbart, you know, two days prior. I mean, come on, that's it. Let's

look at what we've really learned here. We've learned that there are people in the FBHI, the Department of Justice who are snakes, who cannot be trusted, who are pro Hillary partisans, who used the powers of their offices, who used the facade of a nonpartisan executive branch law enforcement agency in order to engage in partisan macinnations. And we see that they're willing to exploit the surveillance apparatus of

the intelligence community against the U. S. Citizen. If Carter Page folks can be under surveillance, any of US can, and if you could be under surveillance based upon complete nonsense, but what a trip to Russia? That you could be under surveillance for a trip to any foreign country. None of this was verified, everybody, That's what we know. None

of this was proven. This was all hearsay. The federal government now thinks that they can put you under surveillance looking for espionage, which I would note is a charge that can carry the death penalty. Uh, they can do that to you based upon what some guy who's sitting around getting all palsy and friendly with various left wing media outlets, what he tells the FBI. That's it. Like I said, this is a high tech swatting. This is using the surveillance apparatus for partisan ends and exposing to

us that. By the way, this is not the first time this has happened with VISA. There's a whole lot of other stuff in there. No, no one really is gonna want to look under the head. Why don't the FBI was fighting this so much? Why was the f B I slow rolling the release of this information. It's not just because of what we know now, it's because of what we may know in the future. What else might be added onto the pile here? The Obama administration was run on the show for eight years. Let me

just pose this one to you. We know that Loretta Lynch has the kind of ethics where she would meet with Bill Clinton on a tarmac days before his wife, then presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, was cleared of charges for crimes that she committed. But what do we think about like Eric Holder, as the Attorney general did do you think that he would have been cracking down or any

fives abuse against Republicans are looking around for information? You really think that it was something that would have kept him up late at night. Now I don't think so. I don't think so. I wonder where else this has happened and what else it has led to. I'm not coming up with some crazy conspiracy on the weaponization of FISA. By the way, look at what they did to General Flynn. He had a phone call. Somebody with access to that classified information leaked it to the press to get Flynn.

So they have used this, folks to set all political scores. I'm not just theorizing they've already done it. You think they might have been done with some other stuff. How else did Democrats get oppo research on top top Republican candidates, Republican office seekers. What a great way to be able

to go about this. Any Republican who's ever traveled anywhere in the world under the rules we've seen from the Obama administration, if they had a talk with somebody who's close to the intelligence service in some foreign country, which by the way is pretty much anybody in authority in a foreign country. You know I have to do is convince the Comys, the McCabe's, the sally ates is of the world that you know, they should maybe open up a file on this guy. Let's take a look see

what you can pull together. Talk about the greatest I mean, it's it's terrifying and it's disgraceful, but what a great Apple research tool Everyone who needs to dig through public records, filings and talk to ex girlfriends and wives and all the rest of it. When you can just have the intelligence community pull all of somebody's stuff and see what you can get. If you don't get anything, you know what no worries because it's all secret. Ah. Yeah, all

starts to make sense, doesn't it. Carter Page. Meanwhile, that's what they're that he's the conspiracy lynchpin. He's the center of this whole thing. I mean, the guy I don't know. I don't really have much of a read on him based on his interviews. I haven't met him, but he certainly isn't someone who seems to be scared of a

looming espionage prosecution. In fact, he claimed in that interview with Stephanopolis that yeah, he was on the FBI's radar before, which I would note a lot of left wing journal us running around after the memo was released last week saying I'm sorry, didn't start a quarter page already on the FBI's radar. And as I was saying to you, remember Acam's razor. Oh, so they had such good dirt on page that they had to just throw this crap

dossier in there too. Doesn't make sense, right, Remember my college admissions maxim, the thicker the file, the thicker the candidate. When you have a good case, it's not it's not complicated to make. It's pretty straightforward, right, think about it? In like first date terms. You know, you know, in the first ten minutes or so, whether you kind of maybe the first five minutes some of you're saying the

first two minutes, whether you like somebody or not. If they tell you that after dinner they're gonna have ten of their friends show up and they're all going to tell you how great so and so is, You're like, hmmm, this is not this is not helping your cause. You don't add week. You don't add weak evidence to a strong case. So why put the dossier in the file at all? Because it was necess Sarah to put the Darcy in else they would not have had a case.

And oh, by the way, Harder Page says, Yeah, I was on the FBI's radar before I was helping them with another case, so I was known to the FBI. I was on their radar, but at the time I was considered a witness. Remember there's target subject, witness, and people who have spent time around law enforcement know that it all sounds nice and tidy, but you can go from one to the other real fast. Yeah, come in here. You know you're just a witness. We just wanna just

wanna ask you a few questions. Is one of the ways the FBI gets people online. The FBI, they bring you in, they tell you you're just they're just hoping you can help them with something. You know, you're not under any suspicion and you and that's great, right, because you're just gonna say some stuff and you don't need a lawyer. And I know you just lied to the FBI. And actually we think you're the one who did it. We've already got you now on a five years didn't

federal penitentiary. Why don't you cut a deal, buddy. Well, it's quite a way to do law enforcement, isn't it. That is how the game is played for those of us who know what the game is. But Carter Page may have been on their radar for reasons that we're either innocent or completely overblown from the FBI's perspective. And yet we're told, oh, no, the fines. He was already under surveillance before then. Okay, can we know why? Please?

Does it bother anyone that the USA doesn't look I'm not like Carter Pages best buddy from the fraternity or something, right, I just look at this as somebody who cares about rule of law and the way that our government respects or fails to respect all rights and individual liberties. Does anyone care? This guy was under surveillance from where you can see right now for no good reason. Nothing. In fact, he's under surveillance based upon a dossier that is really

a steamy pile of horse maneuver in paper form. Does that obscenity one? I mean, you know, as Democrats are all, oh, yeah, you know, he was already under surveillance. Yeah, Carter Page. That Carter Page is the Russia collusion boogeyman that they've been holding up there for all this time. This guy, this is the best they can do. They can nothing

on him. He's going around giving interviews, which if he had done anything conspiratorial, shady, illegal, he would have to be certifiably insane to be going on TV like, yeah, I didn't do nothing, No big deal, alright, any lawyer would tell you, not a not a good thing. I also know today that this is an aside that reminds me of this all the breathless reporter on Trump. Oh my gosh. Trump's lawyers say he should not speak to Mueller. Yeah,

that's right. Obviously he shouldn't speak to Muller. Obviously, there's no particular crime that Mueller is investigating, which really undermines the credibility of his entire investigation. You're not supposed to investigate a general happening, right. The FBI is not a documentary unit. They're not supposed to go around The Special Council is not supposed to be spending its time just creating a broad narrative to put in the history books for us. They're supposed to be did this crime happen?

If it did, who did it, and how should we punish them? That's the way this is supposed to work. But in the world of the Mueller Probe, the Mueller Special Council, it's yes, we've we have ideas about Russia collusion. We have ideas that somehow something went to ry in the last election, namely that Hillary Clinton didn't win, and we're quite bitter about it. So let's just grind through this process and see who we can prosecute for mickey

mouse nonsense. Along the way, we're gonna talk about undermining our faith and institutions. This does not look good for the FBI, this does not look good for the d o J. And Democrats can wind and complain about it all day, but the reality is, if we do have rogue elements inside those particular organizations that are trying to put their hand on the ale for one political party or even worse, in some ways, one political candidate, we need to know about that, and there needs to be

a reckoning with those federal entities. It used to be a house cleaning. But we will see if we get there. Eight four five eight buck the Democrat memo, let's talk about it, We'll get into it. We'll be right back. We have an active investigation into the State Department that has been ongoing for a while now, and as soon as we can get that information out, we will. As the investigation unfolds, I want to know what goes on

with that State Department investigation. I think that's gonna be much more interesting than the Democrat memo fall out, although I'll talk to you a bit more about what I expect in that Democrat memo the response to the new NAZ memo right after the break coming up. But just first, a couple of things. One is this guy I mentioned this yesterday. You have this FBI guy, former FBI guy, Josh Campbell, who wrote this editorial and he's not the

first one. There was a former Obama guy who did this whole Like, I'm leaving the intelligence community because it just makes me so angry. How mean Trump is the intelligence community And it turns out he's donating to Democrats all along, and he like runs right over to MSNBC. But you know, I'm not on partisan man, I'm just here too. Yeah, so we've seen this before, but yeah, this guy is particularly Oh my, here's FBI agent Josh

Campbell on CNN with Jake Tapper. Get in the the oh, he's just a decent public servant who needs to stand up against Trump. If you ask them in and women of the FBI what the last year and a half has been, Like I think to a person, they would say either perplexing, um, some sometimes angering when you see the political attacks on the FBI. Criticism of the FBI is needed. We have to have oversight. We cannot police ourselves. But what myself and my colleagues have been concerned about

are the political attacks. I could not speak out now as I am to defend the bureau, to defend our people and to explain, you know, what it is we do. If I was still in the FBI, Nor would you want that. You wouldn't want an FBI agent in the organization anonymously, Um, you know, speaking out against partisans. It's not what we do. I made the difficult decision career. I love an organization I still love and always love

in order to defend it. Yeah, he just he just felt compelled by honor to take that contract from CNNA get paid to bash Trump on behalf of the law enforcing community. I would note never never listen to anybody or give anyone credibility who claims to speak for an organization of or is holding them themselves up as somebody who speaks for an organization of tens of thousands of people like the FBI. I got news for this guy. And yeah, he's spent a lot more time at the FBI,

knows a lot more FBI people than I do. But you know, then again, I spent a lot more time in Langley and a lot more people there than he does. Uh point here being I gotta news for him. A lot of Trump supporters the FBI too, and a lot of them don't give you know what about whatever Shift and the rest of the Democrat cabal are saying about the latest Trump tweet or the newest memo or anything else. All right, the FBI is not is not a place full of snowflakes. Oh we can. Trump is criticized. Trump

is criticizing Comey and McCabe. These are lawyers everyone. I keep telling you. These aren't even FBI agents. Their lawyers. They're rich, connected lawyers with pretensions to higher office as democrats. I would note see McCabe's wife for example. But oh yeah, comeby, he used the FBI. Please tell you something. All these places, the directors, whether it's you know, Langley, FBI, everything else, none of us really care. We're just doing the job.

Directors come and go. It's the rank and file that is in fact on the front line. Other shows just talking you in the freedom mud. We have a mission. We fight for the truth in a team effort and buck us back with our next play a right. The

mainstream media is totally uninterested in this. Can you imagine if the shoe was on the other foot and Donald Trump or George Bush or Carl Row had paid for information, and then George W. Bush's FBI had opened an investigation into the Obama campaign because they were talking to Russians, which, by the way, really did happen. The Obama campaign was

talking to sans back in two thousand and eight. Uh, and open up a counterintelligence investigation using dirt dug up and paid for by the RNC and George W. Bush supporters. This town would be on fire. Every reporter would be following around Karl Rode and George W. Bush all over town. Yet it's crickets from the media. I mean it is. It's embarrassing. Uh, it's absolutely embarrassing. I mean I'm almost flabbergassed because I thought at least there would be some

ounce of credibility left, but there really is none. Down that's really important. You've got to think about, Uh, You've got to think about what the reality would be if this had happened to the Obama administration under a Bush Attorney general. I mean, the media would would be completely out of control. They would have they would they be picketing outside the White House themselves. I mean, it would be a disaster. It would be dogs and cats living together,

a mass hysteria. People would be freaking out, and the media would be freaking out if that had happened. And yet here we are with the current state of play of this investigation. US citizen under surveillance for no good reason and no big deal. A bunch of Trump haters at the top of the d J and the FBI doing everything that can to help Hillary bal and Hillary out from the crime she committed when she was secretary, was Secretary of State. Everybody, I mean, for damn, she

can't figure out classified if she imbeciled. Now she just thinks she's above the law. I am. She thinks she is, and she was. It's pathetic. Start to add all this stuff out. This is when I begin to lose patients with some of my well intentioned but increasingly irritating never Trump conservative colleagues out there. I'm like, guys and gals, come on, get get it together here, folks start, you know, they'll go, We'll connect the dots. Yeah, I've connected the dots.

There's nothing on Russia. There's all this other stuff. There's all this other disgraceful conduct from the Democrats side. And I can sit here and talk about Hillary's emails, the surveillance of Carter Page, go through the whole list, right, James Comey leaking so that he could get a special counsel going somebody, probably somebody who was pretty good friends with Comey leaking stuff the Washington Post about kissel yacht talking to Flynn, I mean, criminal leaks. I mean, there's

so much, and it's all on one side. On the other side, you have you know, Russia, you know Trump like you know the sanctions, you know Russia and the sanctions and stuff, and you know, I just yeah, you know, it's the Kremlin, and you know I saw Hunt for Red October. I know, man, and he's Russians are just scary,

that's all they've got. And they're willing to go through so many different versions of delusion and to engage in such a Yeah, it should be embarrassing, but I guess they're in capable of embarrassment when it comes to dealing with Trump. And now we've got the the But by the way, you know, here's what Trump said about democrats. I didn't want to skip over this. This got some attention. They would rather see Trump too badly, Okay, then our country do well, that's what it means. It's very selfish.

And it got to a point where I really didn't even want to look too much during the speech over to that side. Because honestly, it was bad energy. Now it's bad energy. You're up there, You've got half the room going totally crazy wild. They loved everything. They want to do something great for our country, and you have the other side. Even on positive news, really positive news like that, they were like death an un American, un American. Somebody said treason US. I mean, yeah, I guess why not?

Can we call that treason? Why not? I like him more every everything, certainly didn't seem to love our country very much. The further we get of the Trump administration, the better I think Trump is doing. I mean, I just love it. It's great. How else could a president respond to this insanity around him, to this just mass dishonesty, this widespread hysteria, a pandemic of Democrat delusion. That's what we are living through right now. He's got to just

throw punches and fight back. He can't sit there and pretend that he's Oh it's not presidential for him to call him Please call them out. This is ridiculous. This whole Russia thing, what was it all going to be about? Again? Didn't even know, Oh there's a hacking the machines. I know they didn't do that oh they conspired with WikiLeaks release the emails. No, that's not what happened. Ah, I swear.

I'm it's almost exhausting to try to put yourself in the mindset of these left wing loons because they are so divorced from any sense of fairness, honesty, and and just a willingness to look at things for what they are that, you know, it's I feel dirty afterwards when I think about what the way they're thinking about this stuff. I'm like, all right, saved me from some of this nonsense. Team eight four four five, lots of lines lit, let's get into it. Mark in Burlington, North Carolina. Hey Mark,

Hey Buck, how are you tonight. I'm good, sir, thank you for your call. Well, you've stolen about of my thunder Mainly I was trying to just find out, you know, to me, the biggest nothing burger here is who in the act is Carter Page. It's like they spent all this capital political and espionage and doing everything wrong and illegal, you know, order to tap this guy just you know, four times for what It's like complete It's like the

Keystone Cops. It makes no sense. And that port I was like, please explain to me, who Carter pages that he would be worth them doing all these things. Totally, Mark, totally agree. And let me just add on to that, and and I completely am with you on this observation. Let me add on to that that this notion that if Paige was talking to some Russians about how you know, that they were going to take a different approach under a Trump administration and they would look at pulling back

the sanctions on Russia. That's all completely legitimate. People do that all the time, alright. This notion that you know Obama was meeting with Russians before before he was president, as as Trump pointed out, And there's just this rush of fearmongering to like anybody who's ever come from the Russian Federation is one step away from Vladimir Putin and is about to like steal our nuclear codes or something.

It's just well, and that leads me to something that I was going to try to figure out how to fit in, but you just gave me the opening. But I know how much of a history buff you are, and I think the Russian hysteria has driven us to believe that, you know, Russians are from another alien planet and they're about to invade and kill us all, when in reality they're just good people too. And so I don't know if you've ever heard of this is World War two trivia a group called the Night Witches. Are

you familiar? No, I am not familiar with the night Which are they are? Those like a Russian snipers? They were Russian female Night Bomber Squadron Night Bomber squad And there we go. Okay, yes, and they flew old World War One biplanes and they were just young girls seventeen to twenty six years old who just absolutely harassed the Germans nearly to death, dropped over twenty three thousand tons of munitions on them until the end of the war.

You should do a little research on them. They're absolutely fascinating and very heroic women. And you talk about something that the Women's March should look into. These are women who really and truly do love their country. It just happened to be Russia and the Motherland. But boy, these girls were absolutely awesome. And I encourage you to do some research and bring it back up some time when it fits. But we'll do we'll do Mark, great call man,

Thank you, very very good. Thank you. Very much, Mark, I appreciate it. Man Shields Ye des in San Antonio, Texas. You're speaking of Buck Dex, Hey, Buck, how are you? I'm good? Thank you for your call. Field Hie. Listen, you're probably I'm gonna make this quick so that you can just get to talking about it, but you're probably

the best qualified talk show host answer this. Given that the the Father warrant was issued on bogus information, and there is a guarantee against the law search and seizure or part of the unreasonable search and seizure in the Fourth Amendment, does Carter Page have grounds to sue the federal government for violation of his civil rights? Now I'll get off the line so that you can ask this. Oh Dex you can stay if you want, but whatever you want. My friends, thank you very much for the

question and and for the call. What I would say is, yes he has grounds, but no, it won't go anywhere. And here's why this is part of what makes FISA so pernicious. When it's abused, they will hide in the endless folds of secrecy. They will find so many different ways to say that we cannot you know that that on national security grounds we cannot, for example, give you discovery. Um, and that's that's what you'll run into very very quickly.

And the federal courts are very deferential to the federal government when it comes to what just gets to stay secret because they say so, given what we saw here Decks with the memo and what they were claiming was secret, and now we all saw it, and it's a joke. Man. There's nothing secret. I mean secret as in damaging or dangerous to be out there. There's no sources and methods, threat whatsoever from anything that was in the noon as memo. Trust me, they'll play all kinds of games with Carter

Pages request. But I still think he should do it. And I would note that actually the New York Times, I think is filing a court case or a foyer request right now for the surrounding information on Carter Page.

Here's what I'm here's a prediction for you. If we ever do find out what the totality of the Carter Page surveillance was based on, We're gonna be even more outraged and more upset because we're gonna just think to ourselves what I've been saying is completely true, which is you could get a fight as a warrant started on anybody under this standard, it's just a question of what the people signing off on it want to see and hear. So, yeah, I agree with you, and that's one of the reasons

why I opposed the Patriarch. And understand I worked in counter terrorism, so but I have because there were laws already on the book that the Patriarch covered, but but the Patriarch consolidated them and I felt was way too much power for the pogram. I think you and looking now and now we're finally seeing a deck. Some have been warning about it for a long time, but I think it's very much real. Shield high sir. Thank you very much for your call. Decks, appreciate get a chance

to chat with you. Yeah, look, this is this is bad. This whole surveillance situation that they have, they have engaged and it is really an embarrassment. You'll notice that there's there's not any recalibration whatsoever from the various anti Trump media outlets you know, uh, you know right now and seen in the running Trump tells Pentagon to plan a military parade. I mean, it's just all Trump bashing all

the time. They have really created you know how they'll they'll do these stories about how few spend too much time looking at people's social media profiles. You'll feel a little bad about yourself because you start to think that that's their real life. And no, in fact, it's not the case that everyone is just taking photos on a beautiful beach of their feet and living in paradise. Right, that's like two days out of the year for them. The rest of the year, they're just like you, grinding

it out, trying to figure out life. But if you believe the social media profile, then you'll you'll start to change the way you feel about yourself and your day to day just through saturation exposure. That's true with the Trump stuff. Just the Trump hatred all the time is turning people into nincom poops on this. I mean, they are so force fed a steady diet of anti Trump nonsense.

And it's really one of the good things that on the conservative side, a lot of never trumpers have just they have undermined themselves with just their shrill, shrieking, inane hatred for Trump all the time, right, And it's just everything Trump does is bad. I mean, if I if I see one more tweet from Evan McMullan about how you know, it's about the constitution and liberty and respect for the rule of law, and Trump's destroying all of that. Really,

I think I think he's just playing golf today. Like I think we can calm down a little bit, you know. OI, all right, we'll take some calls, and then I actually had a little in the third hour here. We got some some different fair ready for you, um, including a little bit of a celebration. It's a celebration, team buck, We'll get to that, So stay with me and we'll

be our back ours. Bolsters the credibility of the FBI to point out that they actually did go through the correct process, that a voluminous amount of evidence was presented to the FISA court, that they mischaracterized Annie McCabe's testimony to our committee. Also that they did this close to the court, that there was a political motivation of one of the witnesses, and a much larger package that was submitted. That's Democrat Swallwell saying that the dem memo is going

to make the FBI look good. Um, but shouldn't that not be what this is all about. It's it's not supposed to be about making the FBI look good or about it's supposed to be the truth, and yet clearly we're already veering from that mission statement. I would also note that all this really, all this other information came to the FBI on and yet they had to include the dossier. M hmm, seems weird, right, Oh the way,

have we heard about any of that other information? No, none of that, None of that's been league now that's been talked about. Seems a little odd, doesn't it. Here's what I think you're going to see happening, and this is what the fight will turn into the next couple of days. The Democrats are likely to play a little game here with redactions. Redactions are the blacked out lines that you will see in government documents that have classified

information in them. What the Democrats will do, in my opinion, is one of two things here. And this is so cynical, but come on there, Democrats, right, they have no standards to protect, so they can get away with a lot. They will either intentionally include information that is not important to the Carter Page case, but that actually is classified. Right, just add in a few names of of people that work for the government, or so there's any number of things, and I could sit here and come up with a

bunch of them. But the point is there's information that would not be relevant to answering the question about why they were looking at Carter Page. But they could include it in their memo and then and have it blacked out because they can't actually justify the release of that information, and then put out there a memo with blacked out lines. Guess what that does, and everybody goes, oh my gosh,

Republicans are not letting the truth be known, right. It could just be, you know, if super secret Squirrel was a really really classified thing, they could just write super secret Squirrel, and then carter Page supersecret Squirrel, and then carter Page also supersecret Squirrel, and they black out those sections, and then they presented to the public and say and remember, Republicans wouldn't be able to tell you what it was.

All they can say is that, oh, well, they were playing games here and what you're gonna see are blacked outlines. That's one way they could go. I don't know if

they'll do that. Another one would be a form of redaction blackmail, which is to say that the Democrats could intentionally include highly classified information in their version of the memo, and then Republicans could legitimately say, hold on a second, you can't have this stuff involved, you can't have this come on, and then they say, see, the Republicans aren't

about transparency. They won't release our memo because it would actually have sensitive information in it that should not be released that has nothing to do with Carter Page or this case. You see what I'm saying. They might play

redaction games here. I think that's very possible. See, because the Republicans have said, yeah, we'll release your memo, So now they could go back and try to add stuff into it, or you know, there's any number of ways that they could get a little dirty here, all right, Yeah, a little bit tricky. That's how we know. That's how Democrats like to play the game dirty. Um So, coming off, I got some things including what am I? What am

I going to talk about the next hour? We've got Oh yeah, Jimmy Kimmel saying that only smart, that liberals have to be smart. That's or liberals are smart. That's why all late night comedians are liberal. I didn't know that late night comedians and brain surgeons are like on the same plane. Also, what else is the other? Oh yeah, school dance got canceled because you know, miss jen Ring, the father daughter dance, he can't have that. That's here in New York City. We'll talk about that and some

other stuff. So teen our three coming up. He's holding the line for America. Buck Sexton his back. Our three of the Buck Sexton Show is here. Everybody. Thank you so much for hanging out, thank you for joining, for just tuning in now. And like I said, coming up this hour, we will talk about, oh gosh, a few

different things. We will get into a father daughter dance that was canceled because father daughter is now a triggering situation for progressives, right, the notion of a father and a daughter and a dance is too much for them. I will also talk about Justin Trudeau's woke moment, the Prime Minister of Canada who doesn't want the term mankind to be used. Of course, and yes, Trudeau opposes the usage of the term of of man in a word that is not surprising. And we'll also get it is

some of our roll call. But I wanted to take a moment here with all of you, if I may, to celebrate an anniversary of sorts. Um. Well, actually, first I had my my my parents anniversary of forty years of marriage was last week. That's like a real anniversary. That's very important. So yeah, I know, forty years. It's pretty amazing. Really, congrats Mom and Dad. Very very cool. I love you guys. Um. But I got another anniversary to talk about here, and that is of me being

on this show, the nationally syndicated Buck Sexton Show. It started one year ago this week, I think, in fact one year ago today was the first time I went on air as the new host for Premiere Radio Networks in this time slot, and usually around the Christmas holidays when I would because my birthday is also December twenty eight, so I usually would share with with you some of

the things that I would tell you now. But this year I actually got to take a week off because now that I have my own show, I can't fill in for Glenn Rush and Sean Um. That's just not really done now. I'm not I'm not able to be a fill in anymore. So I had a week off, didn get a chance to tell you all this. But this is where I get to tell you things like I actually had a speech impediment growing up, and so for somebody to now be one of a very small

group of nationally syndicated radio hosts. Um, we're on a hundred and twenty plus stations right now across the country. Give it some time, we'll be up to two or three. But I just wanted to note that I actually had to go to a speech therapist when I was a kid, and I had to practice saying very simple things. In fact that they couldn't even really come up with much of a diagnosis as to why I had the problems

that I did. It didn't really fit into some of the established I think this is around the first and second grade. So I was an elementary school for second third grade, and I wasn't doing very well in school either, and there were concerns that they were going to have to pull me out of the school. It's called St. David's here in New York City. They might have to pull me out of the school and send me to a school where I get a little more special attention as a I guess it's an eight year old and

nine year old something like that. That's around the age of ten year old, around the age we're talking about, but This is where I'll also tell you, because you are all now my extended my extended family, so to speak, that his team Buck. So my name is Buckman, my middle name is Buckman. My first name is James. I've always been called buck. It's not a stage name. It's not something that I came upon. And I've joked with my parents many times, why do you guys have to

complicate things? You know, I signed. I signed a name that's different than the name that people call me and I anyway, there's I had. I had teachers in elementary school who refused to call me buck One in particular, so we had to settle on Buckman. And the Jesuits act actually, for whatever reason, tended to go for Buckman as the A lot of them called me that instead. Uh, but I print because I had a speech impediment when I was a kid. I had speech problems really is

a better way of putting it. But at a clinical level, and I said my name was but Yeah, that's right. I would walk around ten eleven years old and introduce myself as but Wit. You can imagine my parents, who wanted the best for me in life. Real life was going to be a problem on the playground, and so my mom did everything she could researched, finding me the best speech pathologist. I still remember the woman's name, I

tell you many years later. Her daughter was like a year ahead of me in high school and was it was rather attractive, and once my speech impediment had been all worked out, I remembered um striking up quite a conversation with my speech pathologist daughter, who was a year ahead of me in school. But that's the story for another time. I'd actually just come back from a speech and debate tournament that I had. One was on the first try, so yave me first speech and debate tournament,

won the whole thing. And I saw her and I said, well, you know, you should tell your mom, But I'm getting ahead of myself. And then I was like, hey, would you like to uh share this wine cooler because you know, when you're like sixteen, you drink wine coolers. Maybe I know you never should drink wine coolers, but unless it's zema, because that has kind of a retro field now. Anyway,

I I so I had a speech impediment. I had to work on it for a few years, and I just always thought it was worth telling folks out there, because I know a lot of you or parents, and you've got kids that you've got to help work through any number of stuff that comes up, either health stuff or learning disabilities, school uh, school issues, all of all

different kinds. And here I sit before you. Not only did I manage to learn to speak without I would mispronounce different words for whatever reason they're getting mixed up. It was almost like a dyslexia, but I would say things differently than I meant to. That was the root

of the problem with the speech. And then I also managed to with a little extra tutoring, I'll turnaround stuff in school and ended up going to the best high school in New York City on a four year full scholarship, so you know, and was number one of my number one of my class leading up to that and everything else. So you know, the work you put in with the

kids is is everything. Don't give up on anything that anything that your kid is willing to fight for, you should be willing to fight for just as hard, if not harder, because you never know when they'll be able to turn it around. And you gotta fight even if you don't necessar farely get where you're trying to go with it. You gotta fight anyway, you'll get closer than you think. I think it's an unusual story that I'm here on radio now talking across the country. Like I said,

one year anniversary of the show. I've been on the air. One year. We're picking up stations all over the place. The show is doing really well. That's thanks to all of you, by the way, So this is a celebration of all of you who listen and who passed the show around to friends tell people about it. Um. But if a kid who pronounced his name but and got made fun of for the weird way, I would say Tookey and would get made fun of for the way that he spoke for years and I remembered and it

it it. You know, that's not fun when you're a kid. If he could go on to be the first person in the history of talk radio to guest host the three biggest radio shows in the country Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, and Glenn Beck and Do Sell in rapid succession, and then have his own show and over a hundred and twenty stations across the country, and have goals that becoming the have a goal of becoming the the next in a line of greats in this wonderful medium known as radio.

Then whatever your kid wants to do, whatever your your children believe they can accomplish, you should stay with them on it and and and make every effort. I know you will anyway, But just it is possible to pull off some stuff nobody in a million years. I mean my parents now and they might be might be listening. I'm sure that my mom is kind of laughing a

little bit. I mean, if someone had told my parents when I was in the third grade and I literally couldn't pronounce my name, that I would go on to be a nationally syndicated radio host, debate champion, brief the President before I was thirty years old, in the Oval Office, and you know, for the CIA, all things that require speaking. Um, I think she would have laughed, but Mom and Dad

stuck with me. So Happy anniversary to them for their recent anniversary, and happy anniversary for all of us here in the Freedom Hunt for a great year and another fantastic one to come here in twenty teen. Thank you all so much. Jam Honestly, you guys are are an incredible bunch. You listened to this show I appreciate all your messages, all your calls, and all your support, and we'll be right back. Maternal love is the love that's

going to change the future of mankind. So we'd like you to we would like to say people kind, not necessarily mankind, more inclusive. That was the Prime Minister of Canada. Everybody at some event up in Canada. You notice a young woman was trying to ask him a question and she said mankind, and Trudeau stops her, and at all seriousness is like, no, no, we should say people kind, which I would just note is not even something that weird.

People that are too politically correct say like justin Trudeau makes up his own word, because I guess that means you're even more woke, as the terminology goes, right, if you are uh, if you have been brainwashed with the dictates of leftist political correctness, you are woke. Right, if

you are a social justice warrior, you are woke. This is the term that is still used by many on the left, although I'm sure at some point they'll replace it with some other terms, because controlling the language is a favorite tactic of leftists, and this is something that you should see, not just in our current discourse. But it's the case even when you look in back in history with any well, with any political movement. Quite honestly,

there are fights over language. But particularly in totalitarian societies, there are all purpose labels that are created as a means of shutting down debate and dissent. Within the Soviet Union, it was to be a counter revolutionary because the entire purpose of the state, and therefore everyone within the state, their reason for existing, was not individual rights or liberty

or anything else. Although the Soviet Union did have a rather expansive and uh and luxurious constitution, it was just completely meaningless because it was not based on individual rights and there was not rule of law or civil society or anything else. But they would say you were a counter revolutionary, and that was really too deep personify you. You were no longer really a person, You were just an enemy of problem to be dealt with. So the control of language is so very, very important. We see

this today with the discussions over immigration. I keep yelling about how we cannot refer to one subset of illegal aliens in this country as dreamers, just because the Left, in a straight up public relations campaign, came up with the term dreamers. If you want to say DOCTA recipients fine, people covered under DOCCA fine, deferred action for childhood arrivals.

That is a bureaucratic term that I'm willing to use because I think it is accurate and not overly prejudicial one way or the other to how we view what we should do about the illegal aliens brought here by their parents. Somebody knew they were breaking the law, and somebody benefits from breaking that law if we don't do anything about it. But with Trudeau, I I back to circling back to the beginning here. So this guy won't

let a woman at a at a forum say mankind? Alright, fine, I mean that's crazy to begin with, But wouldn't you go with humankind? Why go to people kind? That just strikes me as so weird. It's like it's not enough. Are we saying that it's not just humans? Are there other people that were concerned about meaning? Is the animal kingdom now? Or are there zoological reasons for why we would say people kind instead of humankind? You know what

I mean is it's supposed to be more expansive. These linguistic games that they play, they'll all have a very clear purpose, and it's intended. It's intended to cow us all into submission, because you find yourself and you'll notice, I catch myself on the show sometime, uh I, I I catch myself using terminology that is really all about what the left wants me to say instead of what I would like to say, you know, instead of the way

that I would approach an issue or a problem. And it's just because it filters into your brain, right, But that was a new one. Anyway, I mean, Trudeau is such a clown, that guy. You know. I know some of my lady friends, I know they love him. I don't even want to. I'm not even gonna ask Ms Molly what she thinks of Justin Trudeau because I get so frustrated. All my female friends are, even the good conservative female friends of mine, are just like, yeah, he's

an idiot, but I mean he's kind of handsome. I'm like, no, stop it, ladies, don't fall for it. Don't do it. Um. But anyway, Canada, you know you're You're a great country with wonderful people, you know, the with a lot of fresh water, by the way, which at some point in the future could become a very increasingly valuable resource. You

know that South Africa is almost out of water. You know that by the way they're shutting the tops, I mean they're I mean, I should say Cape Town I think specifically is in a complete water shutdown where people have to go to distribution centers for water. So that's you're gonna see this more of an issue, I would know.

And I it also is the case with the Yemen that it is expected to be the first country in the world, the entire country of Yemen, which right now is in the midst of a terrible civil war, that it will completely run out of money. I'm sorry, run out of water, not money, It'll completely run out of water.

So I have veered quite a bit from Justin Trudeau, but it's the third hour, so I can veer into things and and why not one of the story that I'm going to jam into this segment because I wanted to talk about it, but it's just it's part of this mania right now, this uh spreading psychosis over terminology and whether we're giving offense or not, which has been going on for a long time and keeps getting worse. I would note Trump has been something of a pushback

against the progression. I think it's kind of like when we have a decrease in the increase in spending when it comes to our national debt and and the way that we're just spending ourselves into oblivion. We don't actually have an overall decrease, it's just a decrease in the increase.

The same is true of political correctness. Right now, we're still moving away from away from freedom of speech, away from uh, liberty and a society that is all about people being adults and being respectful of each other, to this totalitarian nanny state that is always looking over all the words we use and everything that we say. Uh. That's happening less rapidly now that Trump's in office than it was when Obama was in office. But we haven't really turned it around just yet. But here's this the

story I wanted to just mention for a moment. Here a grade school in Staten Island, a place I know pretty well. Actually here in New York City, stant Owl it's kind of the forgotten borough. You know, there are five boroughs of New York City. Statan Island feels a little bit like one part New Jersey, one part Long Island, and it kind of gets left out of the party.

Although I will also note it's the only part of New York City, the only borough of New York City that I believe voted for the Republican candidate for mayor the last time around. The rest of the city was deep blue. The Upper east Side they went for the Republican. Good job Upper east Side and Staten Island. That now, I was like, yeah, well with those Upper east Side,

it's good Job Island. So anyway, there's a grade school over there, and I used to play sports against some Staten Island schools in high school, so I spent some time over there. And they have been forced to cancel their annual father daughter dance because it violated a New school district policy regarding transgender and gender nonconforming students. According to Fox News, that's right, guys, Now you can't have father daughter dances because what's the father, what's the daughter?

Why are we being so gender normative? Why don't we have a z Z and z Z dance? These are some of there. You know those twenty seven pronouns now that you can choose for yourself when you go to Harvard seven different pronouns or maybe it's thirty seven. I can't even keep it. I can't even keep it straight anymore. Um and and by the way it's keeping it saying keeping it straight? Is that A? Is that a microaggressions? I just accidentally veer into using the wrong verbiags there.

I think, I think that has nothing to do with it, but I'm sure somebody would make the case. So the Department of Education New York City has directed schools to get rid of any gender based practices like the daddy daughter dance unless they send a clear educational purpose. That's what they're saying now. Quote father daughter dances inherently leave people out, not just because of transgender status, just life in general. These can be really uncomfortable and triggering events.

A you know, if you don't have a dad for any number of reasons, whether it's that you know, dad left home when you were young, dad tragically passed away when you were young, or you happen to have two mommies. I don't know. I just feel like, is it really triggering if you know you don't go to that dance? I mean, I feel like I skipped all kinds of activities. I wasn't really a Joiner in high school. You know, I didn't really go to a lot of the clubs and thinks sports. That was really it for me. I

wasn't one to stick around all that much. But this is what we're heading for now. It's gonna spread from New York City. You're gonna see this more and more across the country. It's coming to a school district near you. And it really is a waste, and it's and it's sad that this is what it's come to. But the control of land, the control of gender stereotypes and gendering and mis gendering, this is what the left focuses its

time on. And they wonder why when they tell us Donald Trump is a treader, a trade and a treader a trader and commits treason. Uh, we don't pay much attention to it because we've got other stuff to worry about here. Um. Anyway, enjoy your last year or two of father daughter dancers for those of you out there, because I'm sure it's just a matter of time before your school board gets this one wrong. All right, I'll be back with much more, including a discussion, a late

night comedy, and some roll calls. Stay with me, liberals have been killing comedy for years, the constraints of political correctness making it increasingly impossible to enjoy a lighthearted remark or joke. I don't even know what you're allowed to make fun of anymore, except for conservatives, Christians, Republicans, and straight white males. Those are the only targets of comedy that I know you won't get in trouble for. And

in fact, you don't even have to be funny. You can just go after any of those targets and people will hold you up as some kind of talent in the media. And we see this time and again. I mean, there's a recent photo that's making the rounds. I forget and what publication, But it had all these different late night guys, Colbert and Fallon and Kimmel, and you go

through the whole what's his name, Trevor Noah? Who is who is painfully unfunny and not a talented comedian in any way from what I have seen, and I've actually watched the show and seeing some of his stand up. John Stewart was a dishonest propagandist and a snide, nasty little man on the Daily Show, but he was clever

and he was pretty funny. Sometimes Trevor Noah is just not very good and has been given a job that I don't think he is talented enough to do at the level required based on his predecessor and the kind of show that he was doing. But nonetheless, you notice that all these different comedians you see a whole slew of them in the various late night shows, every single one of them is a liberal. They all take left

wing policies. They all, you know, will say things about about Trump and about the conservative conservatives and media conservative right wing that, lets you know, no question about it. They are pandering to the coastal blue state audience, coastal in Chicago. Uh. And you even had Jimmy Kimmel, who I would note has a reputation for not being a very nice guy, at least he used to. Now he's somehow America's new conscience. Like he's the guy that stands

up and says, we're better than this. You're you're a late night show guy who used to be asking women to play a game literally called What's in my Pants on the street. That's what he used to do. He was on a show called The Man Show, which I will tell you if you have not seen it. Uh, there are some things that maybe aren't just it's not just political correctness that would make them a problem for today's viewers. In some cases it is just a little

too borish and exploitative. And The Man Show wasn't really funny. It was actually exploitative. And I'm all for a bit of college frat brow humor here and there, but it was a bit too much. I mean, watching women literally jump up and down on trampolines on video as tho, that was the ha ha funniest gag that anybody had seen all day. That's what Jimmy Kimmel's background is. And yet Jimmy Kimmel when he is on this podcast of former Obama acolytes uh called Pod Save America. You won't

like it, don't download it, don't listen to it. It's just a bunch of Obama Obama worshipers sitting around in a circle talking to other Obama worshippers about the good old days of the Obama administration and how terrible Trump is. Nothing insightful, nothing particularly knowledgeable about any of the They're about my age, I think to the guys who are on the show, um, but you know, that's what you get with the current state of Unfortunately, podcasting is still

very left dominated, much to my chagrin. We need to make inroads on that team on the right, but we're working on that. So here's what happened though on on Pod Save America, on this podcast this left wing Obama LoveFest, they asked Jimmy or it came up with Jimmy Kimmel about why is it that all of late night comedy right now? Which I'll tell you there were times when

I would stay up a little late. You know, my mom I was too busy taking care of four kids and everything and a little Boston Terrier running around the house. Boston entire is a great dog, by the way. And I would stay up a little late sometimes and watch Jay Leno. And when I was a high school kid, Eve Jane Leno, it was pretty funny, it was, and there was a certain uh positivity to the show. You know,

it was really supposed to just be funny. I don't remember feeling like I was getting some kind of a lecture or a political brow beating from Leno. And anyway, Kimmel is now in that slot and he does do the tear eyed you know, Oh my god, they shot a lion. Oh there shot a lion and lion got shot, And like, I'm I love animals as much as anybody, but I gotta say, there's a lot of stuff I would cry for before a lion getting shot in Africa, on the other side of the the other side of

the world. But Kimmel is is on the Pots a Thing and this podcast, and this is what he says about late night comedy. Just so happens that pretty much every late night talk show host is a liberal, and that because it requires a measure of intelligence. Now he's saying that, and I'm sure if pushed on it, he would pull the classic Jon Stewart of the formula, the Daily Show maneuver of oh, it was just a joke, but you know, it's not really just a joke with

these guys. He actually is dumb enough to believe that Jimmy Kimmel is dumb enough to think that he is smarter than other people who also would be comedians on late night TV who happened to have a more conservative point of view. Now I could sit here and talk about Colin Quinn, and I could talk about the conservatives that I've done many different panels on Red Eye with over the years, different stand up comedians, and I'm actually blanking on the name of the guy from Rescue Me.

What's the guy's name from Rescue Me? You know, Dennis Leary? Thank you? I mean we could say Dennis Miller. I mean, we could sit here and talk about all the right of center, libertarian leaning not necessarily political. Oh wow, you don't have to be political to be a comedian. But that's even giving this argument too much credit and too much credibility, because it's really not to be taken seriously.

It's really a a slander and a smear that just panders to this stupid audience that believes this stuff that will look look at Jimmy Kimmela in this case, listen to Jimmy Kimmel on a podcast, and you know note also that you know kiml went after a Fox host awhile back and and did so in a really nasty

personal matter. And it's he just showed everybody who he was, and we could all think that he's the smiling, nice guy, but he's actually shown himself publicly to be pretty classless and and not nice and I'm sure they'll say, oh, well, he gives this money to charity somewhere. Yeah, that guy's making like twenty million dollars a year. I'm sure he gives a couple of hundred grand to charity. It's called

great pr It doesn't make him a wonderful humanitarian. But the notion that you are liberal because you are more intelligent, he'll laugh like John Stewart would and say, oh, I was just come on, it's just comedy's just kidding. But he's really not. They really believe that, they really think

that this is true. And it just reminds me of that moment many years ago when Christopher Hitchins was also on the not funny liberal echo chamber known as the Bill Maher Show, and Christopher Hitchins, who was not really conservative or a man entirely of the left, although he was for most of his career leftists, said that Bill Maher's audience, uh was essentially feckless, and he extended one finger to all of them to show them how he

feels about them. Well to anyone in Jimmy Fallon's audience, who really believes that the reason all late night comedians it's not because that democrats control the different media entities that make these decisions. No, no, it's because they're smart. Right to anyone in Jimmy Kimmel's audience who believes that they should be extended the Christopher Hitchens style one finger salute, I will roll into a quick break, will come back with roll calls. Stay with me. Well, team, we've reached

the final phase of our Freedom Hut extravaganza today. So I think that means it's just a perfect time for us, especially considering we didn't get any time to do it yesterday. To go into roll call, Team Buck, it's time for roll call, al right, first in the roll call this week. Gosh, I just did that today. Today you have uh, Dana or is it Donna? I'll go with Dana. I absolutely love your Shields High podcast. You're the only person that

can get me to enjoy history. That's high praise, my friend. Anyway, after listening to the Fall of Constantinople, it reminded me of the They Might Be Giants cover of the song is Standbull. After listening to it a couple of times, I realized that it really trivializes the atrocities that occurred during the fall of the City, love the show, Keep it up, h Dana, thank you so much. I'm planning

to have another Shield High out next week. We're gonna kind of do them now as I can, which will be either every other week or maybe every three weeks or so. That's the plan. It's a it's a heavy lift. I wanted to get it going and see what the interest level is. You team, you want me to keep doing it, But I'm gonna have to spread them out a little bit because it takes up pretty much the entire weekend and much of the week to pull one of those thirty or forty minute episodes together properly. Next

one is going to be on Malta Susannah. She writes the following, love Love, Love the Shield HiPE podcasts, and it makes Mondays something to look forward to. Don't stop and listening to Monday's podcast. When you talk about the most important things to children who are terminal, it really touched my heart as I have been there with a child who had cancer and two other children with mental health issues. There is no time to waste on things that have no lasting value. Love is spelled t I

M E. Time. Thanks for all you do well, Susanna, thank you for sharing your personal story, and I hope that you all found that it was worthwhile and and also it'll stay with you a bit. The wisdom from those children who are terminal patients, a lot of them terminal cancer patients, and just what what matters to them, right without all the all the distractions of adulthood, ego

and career, and what really matters. It was wisdom from from children, people who make you laugh, people who are kind to you, your family, people who love you being with them, That's what matters. And I thought that it was really powerful, and I'm glad that many of you got a chance to listen to it yesterday. If you didn't, by the way, I would recommend you go listen to the podcast. It's on iTunes. Just go to the Buck

Section show on i tunes. And it was in the end of yesterday's radio program, ah Tara with the following thank you for your reminder yesterday about what's important in life. I'm dealing with some mental health issues and trying to be a good mom. Somehow your words and stories inspired me to commit to doing something as simple as reading more to my son. I can do that even on a bad day, I'll Tara, absolutely reading to your son

is something he will always always remember. And you know, one of the most important shifts in my own life philosophy that I've made that I find really helpful is instead of focusing on accomplishments in life as though it's a resume, instead of looking at things as you know, how am I doing in the totality of my entire life.

I just look at each day now and what can I do today to be productive, to improve myself a little bit, to take care of myself, to be kind to people, and to take care of those who matter to me. And that's really the that's really the daily checklist. Those are the things that keep me going each day and to be a little better each day, a little kinder each day, become a little more knowledgeable, two show the people who matter to me that they care to

take care of them. And also to take care of yourself. That's a very important part of of at least the philosophy that I've started to pull together for myself that affects everything else. Right, You need to go easy on yourself. Sometimes you need to get enough sleep, you need to give yourself enough time to rest. You need time for leisure because you will be a better person for all those around you if you are functioning in every in

every sense at your highest capacity. That doesn't mean perfect, that doesn't mean everything is great. It just means that you are able to be the best version of you for everyone else as well. I think that a lot of really decent, responsible, kind, hardworking people allow themselves to get so run down, and they have all the best

intentions that they don't realize that. You know, if you end up in a position where you're too tired, or where you get really sick, or where you have some kind of a breakdown, whether at work or at home, you're not going to be able to be the person that you want to be for those around you who love you and that you love. So take care of yourself as part of this too. It's not just take

care of other people. That's just Those are some thoughts that I have for whatever, for whatever they're worth, uh David with the following on Roll Call, Hey, but a couple of items. My daughter Emily, who is an actress, received a Team Buck t shirt for Christmas, and she wore to rehearsal one night where she had to explain to all your liberal friends who you were making inroads. The other thing is what happened with Tyrone and Amy. Maybe I missed it Shields ye Oss, David, Well, David,

I'm glad you're your daughter. I hope she likes a T shirt. And I'm sure it was a conversation starter. Now with Tie and Amy. I mentioned this before, but in case any of you missed it, Uh, Amy got a great job at Fox News. She's a producer on one of the shows at Fox News now. So she moved on to Fox. She had been with me for almost two years, and I totally she's really somebody who her her heart is in television and she wanted to go back and do that. So I was very happy

for and Tyrone. I had known from my time at The Blaze as well, and we had become very good team and colleagues together. And he got an offer to go do his own radio show in Philadelphia, and he it's this is the business we're in. He took the offer and it was pretty quick. It really happened all at the very end of the year. So I wish them both all best. I'm happy that their work with me was um as well. Obviously as fruitful as it was concerning they both got great jobs that they really

wanted after working here on the Buck Section show. So that's all good. We have Mike now with this producer. Mike, he's running the show, and we have either John or Brandon running the board. So if you hear me talking to Mike, John or Brandon, those are the folks that are that are on the team in the hut. Now,

so there you have it. There is your update. Now we have David writing in, Hey, Buck, I love the Monday Show, very informative as a former as a former State Department guy, I had to laugh at your diplomat stereotype. Too funny, too true, David. Well, thanks buddy. And yeah, look I when I tell you I know something, I know something, and I know State Department people and I've had plenty of back and forth with them over the years. Um,

so there's that. I'm glad you enjoyed that. David. Denny writes, Hey Buck, I just heard you read my last note on Roll Call. Thanks. I was referring to the regular show podcast, not Shields High. Uh, don't smack him around too much. And just so you know, I listen on an Android phone, so it's not my device. Okay, Well,

thank you Denny. Thanks for the clarification. And anytime you guys have a tech issue or problem bringing to my attention because I can flag it for our engineering folks here and they can go from there and they can hopefully address it. Joey, Joey rets falling Shields high. I want to give you a pad on the back for the history podcasts. Also, I appreciate your ability to give political commentary in this day and age without the profanity

of other talk show hosts. I'd like to share your podcasts with my wife and children, and since I don't curse in their presence, I wouldn't want to expose them to someone else cursing. Thanks for being a straight arrow, a title I heard from an old state sergeant major years ago. You are a rare man among the masses. As a side note, I found you on the Blaze. Your program makes up of my daily brief. Keep up the great work well, Joey, thank you very much. It's

very kind. I am honored, and yeah, I look. I always have to behave because most days my mom is listening to the show and I can't can't disappoint Mama Sexton with any any potty mouth stuff, any bad words. And I know that many of you have kids that listen to and I obviously completely respect that. I want

them to go listen to the show. Look, we're going to talk about serious stuff here, intense stuff, and sometimes we're gonna have to get into some details about either violence or and you know, I'll make some jokes that might push the envelope a little bit, but no profanity and nothing that's inappropriate, nothing that I wouldn't let my own if I had one, which I don't yet. Twelve year old listened to. That's kind of my that's kind

of my approach. All right, Team, thank you for all your oats and roll call Official Team bucket gmail dot com if you want to email me. See you tomorrow, same time, same place, in the Freedom Hunt Shields High
