some more interesting fireworks than anticipated. There was talk of backstabbing and talk of betrayal, and the president given quite a lesson in diplomacy to Adjustin Trudeau of North We'll talk about that, plus what is going on with tariffs and the economy, and howard Democrats going to run on Trump is doing too well right now on those issues, That and more coming up. This is the bus Sexton Show, where the mission or mission is to decode what really
matters with actionable intelligence. Make no mistake again. You're a great American Again. The Buck Sexton Show begins analyst. At least for me, my worst expectations were actually met this weekend at the G seven meetings. It's bad geo politics. His advisors go out using language that's usually reserved for, you know, maybe the leader of North Korea. Exactly right, you know, special places. The attacks against Trudeau were strangely, weirdly personal. I don't know if he is threatened by
Justin Trudeau being younger. I have no idea Kinada. The G seven was an epic foreign policy fail. I mean, it was an easy lay up missed by the United States. So over the top. Yeah, well they were over that. Not even that's not even the way to describe it. Well, and it really was the language of war with out of curious, I figured fake news CNN. But you know I could tell by the question I have no idea you with CNN. After the question, I was just curious as to who you're with? You with CNN, I would
say that the level of relationship is a ten. We have a great relationship Angela and Emmanuel adjustin the relationship that I've had is great. So you can tell that to you have fake friends at CNN. Welcome to the Buck Sexton Show. This President's amazing, Okay. I mean there there are some days where I come in here and I'm just like, I don't know what Thank God for Donald Trump. I don't know what else to say that the media was in such a little hasty fit over
the weekend. There's such a bunch of snide, condescending, self important punks, clowns and losers. They really are. They're like, oh, how can you do if you are Barallary? It's like, okay, first of all, everybody stop hyperventilating about every thing, right, you know, we see this with every we see this on every issue, right, whatever Trump does something like this, yeah, dear man, you know, and then they'll say, oh no,
withhe Obama, we talked about it too. It's like yeah, I mean you wrote about it, and it was like, well, this is a thing that happened today, let's move on. I mean, it's just the disparity, the double standard. It's in every it's in everything. It's in everything, and and the fact that they pretend it's not is a joke. Alright. Anyone who was a little Obama it in the media for eight years then is a little anti Trump maniac now. And if they tell you otherwise, they're lying or they're
just delusional. I actually it might be more delusion. I think. I think they believe it, so it's not really a lie because they believe the untruth. But you have this whole We played this montage for you about the G seven and Okay, this is what happened. It's pretty straightforward, and I gotta you know, at the top of the show, I just want to say this Trump has change the way that we are thinking about tariffs. If nothing else comes from this, at least now people understand that when
they say look or remember, free trader. It's like, really, well, what do you think about all of the countries of the world that have tariffs in place, including lots of them that have big tariffs in place against US? Is that free trade? All right? I'm a free trader? Okay, yeah, but what does that mean? This is like saying I believe in a free market all right? Does that mean you don't believe in cutting back regulation or fighting back against the Federal of Viathan when it tries to impose
more regulation. No, free trade is a principle. It is not a reality right now, and there are tariffs in place even with a look. Canada is like family. I mean, when we're talking about international relations, Canada doesn't even really count as international relations. It's really, you know, almost intra national relations. I mean there there are buddies, there are a cousin. They're part of the family. You know, we
get it right. And the way that the media is running around the rack like there's some huge rift and I don't think that the moose brigades are gonna come, you know, kind of come charging down after us throwing maple syrup bombs anytime soon. I think our Canadian buddies and we're all friends. It's all gonna be fine. So why all the hysteria, you know why they because they just did everything hate tramp. I'm I'm actually a little surprised they don't get more tired of it, the same thing,
day in and day out, the same nonsense. Such a bunch of little whiners. And they don't bring anything from the table, you know, they don't bring anything worthwhile to these discussions. They're all just reporting on each other's reporting. It's gotta start with that. It's very little interesting original reporting that any of them are doing anyway, and so then it's just a questionable what are the stories that they choose to cover and how do they cover them.
That's a much more important barometer for bias then whether something is covered, because everyone's covering the same crap, right, Everyone chases everybody else with this stuff, So it's all about how it fits in the narrative and what else is out there. But you know, let's just take a step back from it, because I know, the G seven thing happened for the weekend, we're got we got North Korea to get to, although I mean technically Singapore to get to. But the summit with North Korea. It's it
hasn't happened yet, So once again we're stuck in this. Okay, well they're there, but they haven't in the meetings. But they're there, and here's what's at stake, and we've been talking about that a lot. We'll see. We need to moderate our expectations. I think it's gonna be good. I don't think it's gonna be amazing. Blow your mind, Oh my gosh. Trump has saved the planet. I but I think I think it'll be I think the outcome could be positive. I'm yes, I will say it. I am
cautiously optimistic about Singapore. I am not betting on Singapore. We shall see, we'll get there. But but the trade and tariff discussion is fascinating because Trump has changed the way we talk about it, the same way that with immigration. Now we can have discussions about, well, is this really in our interest? Is our immigration policy in in Americans interests? Not what does the U N think? Not what do elite mediate calumness on the coast or whatever. We're not
what they think about it? Is this something that we believe is good for us? And with immigration, he's he's single handedly changed things with trade. He has also changed the discussion. Now people are like, oh, you mean that there really is a whatever two sevent dairy tariff in place with with Canada in the US. That seems that seems rather punitive. And and that's where you get in this whole exchange with by the way they had they're gonna put some kind of a communica out there. What
does it? What does that even mean anyway? It's like, there has no but and it's not legally binding. It doesn't really mean anything. It's just like, yeah, here's a statement of principles. You know, I guess what. The Soviet Union had a great constitution that said everybody gets free healthcare. It doesn't mean that it happened. I mean, I know that an extreme example. But but Trudeau, after the meeting with Trump, Trudeau decided to get a little hissy and
this is what happened. Play five. I highlighted directly to the President that Canadians um did not take it lightly that the United States has moved forward with significant tariffs. It's kind of insulting. And I highlighted that it was not helping in our renegotiation of NAFTA or polite we're reasonable, but we also will not be pushed around. What does that you mean won't be pushed around? We're the negotiating over over tariffs. Right. A tariff is effectively attacks it is.
It is a government tax on goods coming into that government's borders. It's in the short term at least Phil's government coffers, and it also helps domestic production. It gives them an advantage visa either competition outside that has to deal with the tariffs. Right. It also raises prices for consumers. Right, we know this is all the e com one I want aspect of tariffs, but it's a much more complicated discussion than just I'm a free trader. It's like, that's
an easy thing to say, what does it mean? Because we don't have free trade right now? And the fact that here we are. And by the way, even Trump's well not as crazy as attractors because they actually think that he's like a lizard in a human suit and came from Mars and you know that there and some of them have like cable news shows, but they're completely out of their minds. But he is more honest. Trump haters that will say he has been on this issue
of trade. He has been consistent for forty years or something. Now he's been saying we're getting you know, we're getting messed up here. This is bad. And Trudeau goes out there and as this stuff and look, this is what everybody was reporting on. Oh gosh, you know, now we've got some rift with our Canadian allies. It's not a big deal. It's not a big deal. Peter Navarro, who is Trump's well not necessarily mean. I think Kudlow might be his trade guru right now, but he's certainly in
that conversation of top people with Trump and trade. And uh, actually, you know we can hear from Culdlow and Navarro play six and then seven. Please. There's a special place in the hell for any foreign leader that engages in bad faith diplomacy with President Donald J. Trump and then tries to stab him in the back on the way out the door. And that's what bad faith justin Trudeau did with that stunt press conference. He says that we are
the problem with tariffs. They have enormous tariffs. I mean, they have tariffs on certain dairy and food products of a two D. He really kind of stabbed us in the back. He did a great disservice to the whole G seven. They were united in the G seven. They came together. President Trump was charming, good faith, and they were getting along famously. President Trump actually, and this is music to my ears, Jake, he went through those two days the conference talking about the need for a new
free trade system, no tariffs. We were coming together beautifully, okay, and then he goes out there and posed this amateur political stunt. Yeah, Trudeau was trying to play to his base. So Trump said, you know what I am. I gonna sign your your your paper. You know I'm not. I'm not gonna be treated that way, especially when presidents on his way to this incredibly high stakes negotiation with North Korea.
You can't have a close friend, which Canada's a close for I don't think Trudeau is necessarily close for me. You can't have a close friend, you know, stepping on a line like that without a bit of pushback. Again, it's within the family, Okay. No one's worried about our relationship with Canada. It's all gonna be fine. I mean, you're basically a part of America anyway, Canada. I know, people get mad when you say it. But come on, let's be real. You're like America Junior and colder um.
Trump made this very clear that what does he want? What what's the basis of the G seven? Uh did you seven? Terror situation that he would like? And here's what he said, play it. I did. No tariffs, no barriers. That's the way it should be. Let's say Canada, the United States pays tremendous tariffs on dairy as an example two hundred and sevent nobody knows that. So you go tariff free, you go barrier free, you go subsidy free. That's the way you learned at the Wharton School of Finance.
It's gonna change. It's not a question of I hope it changes. It's gonna change. And tariffs are gonna come way down because people cannot continue to do that. We're like the piggy bank that everybody's robbing and that ends. You See, you don't have to be forget about all these people, all the expert that inventional wisdom. I mean, Trump is a smasher of conventional wisdom in every sense, you know, politically, with his rhetoric, with all across the board.
You don't have to be an economics expert to see that something is amiss. There's a problem here. If tariffs are so bad and they lead to trade wars and all these horrible things, and trade wars lead to real wars, And why do so many countries have tariffs in place against us without any consequence? Are we just the chump in this situation that doesn't get to say, well, hold on a second. Now, this is where some of my I don't know, I's gonna say, my liberal friends, but
they would just yell at me more. But this is where people point out a book, America has tariffs too exactly. So let's look at you know what what tariffs are really important? Canada? What teriff really port in America? Can we meet in the middle somewhere. It's a negotiation. This is what this is how it goes. This is what it feels like. There's a little bit of given take. You know. I've had to negotiate contracts for myself. I've had to negotiate all kinds of things in this media business.
You don't get what you want on the first try. Sometimes you get a little, a little mythed, a little annoyed when you feel like you're not being given you know what you should get or whatever. That's the nature of this, and you try it in good faith, get to something that works for everybody. That's what Trump is trying here. He is single handedly changing the discussion on trade, on tariffs and once again with everyone to rate against them. And you know, I've been saying along, I want to
understand this more. I want to hear Trump out with every to rate against him. He's making a lot of headway here and for a lot of folks, he's making tremendous sense. We're talking more about trade, and then we'll be getting into uh, some North Korea and what we are whatever, the North Korea summit in Singapore and UH, and then just some general economy thoughts as well, where the economy is right now. We we have a jam
a jam pack show eight fock. If you want to chat eight four for nine, eight to five, we will be right back. If I'm not so sure, a majority of Americans believe that globalization and free trade is in our interests. I believe that John McCain believes it. But the reason we're having these problems here at home brexit Itadaly, there's a movement all over the world. Uh to look inward not outward. And I think it's a mistake. But I'm not so sure. Most Americans agree with John McCain
and Lindsay Graham. I'm alive it. I mean Lindsey Graham saying that that he believes in globalism, our globalization. Sorry, that was that was a bit freudy. He believes in globalization. That is what he said, globalist illuminaty. No, but I mean he believes in globalization. Is not uh is not telling us anything. Globalization is a process that's happening all around us all the time. This is about specific trade agreements with specific countries. International trade is premised upon agreements.
It's not just a thing. There's no state of na sure of international trade. Countries make deals. The deals can be bad or good or somewhere in between. Why do we think that we have some uh some perfect you know, status quo. It doesn't make any sense. But I want to also bring in producer Mike had a story for us. Producer Mike, what happened? It's exciting? Here we go, he's he's he's I catch him off guards sometimes? What do
he got? Producer Mike? I had my first running with a Freedom Hut fan this weekend live and in person. Really what happened. I was out well a friend of UH, A couple of people and UH a girl who I'm friends with. She had a couple coming into town and they wanted to stop by the building and she said, oh, this is my friend Angela, who's a big fan of Buck Sexton and her husband who is a pilot in
the Air Force. I was there, um, and they are fans of the show and they were calling me producer Mike all night and it was there a lot of fun. She's like she can about to me. He said, your producer Bike and gave me a big hug. And she loves the show. Um. She's a millennial um in thirties, and she was very happy that there's somebody out there with the voice who was saying a lot of things she was thinking. So it was pretty cool. Thank you so much, And can we still give little shout out
to Angel and Jamie. Angel and Jamie, thank you guys for listening and always always appreciated. I can tell you I was, I was on and I never got to say a real thank you to people. Years ago pre Miss Molly before MS Molly came along. I was on a first date actually, and I was walking down the street and I saw to like team buck Oss folks who were happy to be visiting New York and they were like, fucking there the other ms big deal of it,
and I was like, this is awesome. It's like the first time in a long time I've been like, yeah, like radio show love it it. The girl, rather the young woman, I should say, rather lovely she was like, oh my gosh, like they made such a big deal over you. And I was like, well, were thinking each other as peers, honey, because we are. But I'm kind of a big deal. So my my library smells of rich mahogany. I've actually never had a library. I'm lucky to have a bookshelf in my tiny apartment. But anyway,
it was a fun one. Uh where do we ever? Beck a Heindrix up next? Is that? Is that? What's happening? We got a nuke and missile expert joining us to talk about what are we really gonna do here? How long would it take? How does it work? How do you denuclearize? If you're walking us through some of that process, which is maybe putting the I CBM ahead of the horse.
That didn't really work. But you know what I mean, maybe it's getting a little ahead of things, but I feel like it's an important discussion to have because you've got high stakes nuclear diplomacy happening. Well, yeah, right, right right now. I forget what time it is in Singapore. It's probably in the morning. It's gonna be happening pretty soon. Here he's holding the line for America. Buck Sexton is act. The context for these discussions is radically different than ever before.
The backdrop against which these negotiations are taking President Trump has said, UH in a way that is fundamentally different than before. UH. Presidents made very clear until such time as we get the outcome that we're demanding, economic relief is not going to be provided. That's different. There was always this hypothesis is that somewhere along the way, the Americans would take their foot off and allow those economic opportunities for the North and thereby reduced the capacity to
actually achieve the deal. We're not going to do that. So these discussions that will take place tomorrow between Chairman Kim and President Trump will set the framework for the hard work that will follow, and we'll see how far we get. But I am very optimistic that we will have a successful outcome from tomorrow's meeting between these two leaders. The completely, verifiable and irreversible denuclearization of the Career Peninsula is the only outcome that the United States will accept.
Sanctions where we remain until North Korea completely and verifiably eliminates its weapons of mass destruction programs. If diplomacy does not move in the right direction, and we are hopeful that it will continue to do so, those measures will increase. There you have Secretary of State Pompeo. He is in Singapore right now with the commander in chief himself, President Trump.
Kim Jong un has also landed. He is making the rounds and is is certainly a site for a lot of folks to see if the furthest he has ever been, I believe from North Korea since becoming the dictator of that country. What do we think is going to happen behind closed doors here? What are they trying to achieve? And we'll get into as much of the specifics on the d nuclearization side as we can to help us with that. We've got Rebecca Heinrich's on the line. She
is a Senior Fellow at the Hudson Institute. She is an expert on missiles and nukes and things that go boom in the biggest way. Rebecca gread to have you great to be here. Thanks, all right, So let's let's talk for a moment about the d nuclearization side of this. You know you you study missiles day in and day are you how how does that process? Let's just say walk me through. Trump and and Kim sit down and
he goes, you know what, let's do this. We will do nuclearize, assuming you know, promises are in place and the economic relief comes, we will de nuclearized. How does that actually happen? Like, what are the steps in that process? Sure? Well, the first thing that needs to happen is, uh, there needs to be a common understanding of definitions and so that that hasn't happened yet. You played that great clip from Secretary of State Pompeo, and I believe it was
that same press conference where he answered the question. One of the reporters asked, is there a clearer definition of what we mean when we say the nuclearization? And he said, we're getting closer, And then the reporter said, can you tell us how close, and he said no, or something to that effect, so that that that's actually an enormous step. We've never gotten to the point where we have the
same definition of denuclearization as North Korea. So the North Koreans might think that it just means, you know, no testing for now, and then maybe in a few years they start dismantling you know, part of their or they start you know, allowing stop stop doing plutonium or stop enriching uranium, and you know, it could be very different understandings of what they mean by de nucularization and on what timeline. UM. The other thing that's interesting is you
keep hearing the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula. I actually don't like that. Whenever I talk about this, I say, we want the demucularization of North Korea, because when you say the Korean Peninsula to the North Korean year, that means that the United States has to stop providing extended deterrence to Japan and South Korea as well, UM, which means nothing nuclear capable in that region on the U. S side. So again, you've got to come up with
some common under standings of definition. So what I would even just like to see coming out of just that bilateral meeting between President Trump and Kim. John nun is for Trump to say, I need you to understand what we are talking about when we say complete, verifiable, irreversible
dismantlement of your nuclear program. And if Kim agrees to that, and he's going to demand some sort of security assurances back from Trump about what that means, probably in some form of a treaty, UM, providing assurances that we're not going to be aggressors or you know, preemptive attack and that sort of thing. Provide some sort of security assurance. I mean, that would be enormous, just agreeing in principle
on what the goals are. UM. Wait, hold one second, just because Pompey actually spoke about those security assurances play clips Wealth. It is the case that we are prepared to make security assurances necessary for the North Koreans to
engage in that denuclearization. That is, we're prepared to take actions that will provide them uh sufficient certainty that they can be comfortable that d nuclearization UM isn't something that ends badly for them in deep just the opposite, that it leads to a brighter, better future for the North Korean people. Now, let's say that's all in place, and by the way, your your exposition here on understanding or or having agreement on the definitions of the two sides
is critical. Obviously, first step is what Before you can get what you want, you gotta know what you're trying to get. But tell me then, how Let's say that the de nuclearization is agreed upon as North Korea abandoning w or abandoning nuclear wm D. At least they've got a whole lot of stuff over there. But let's say it's abandoning nuclear weapons of mass destruction and the missile program that goes with it. How then do we start
to how do we implement that? And I know there's probably some specifics that would have to get hammered out right, would this be under some kind of a UN mandate just US overseas? But I mean the actual processes. Would we send in teams to take this stuff? How does that work? Yeah? So that so the first thing that we want to see actually is um, I know, people get really nervous when when when National Security Advisor John
Bolton mentioned OLIBYA model. I actually think I know, I know John Bolton, and I know what he meant by that, And and there's actually a lot to learn from the Libya model and to to know kind of how we would go about this in North for North Korea, and that is that they have to the North Koreans would then have to open their doors to to US inspectors, to u N inspectors. You know, there has to be some sort of m agreement about who who are the who the inspectors are, who they're going to you know,
who the who who there are and um. And then they have to actually show us where their systems and programs are. Now we obviously know where some of them are, but but there's god, there's some that that we don't know. And so they actually have to demonstrate that they've made the strategic shift by opening their doors and allowing these inspectors full unmitigated access to their program and then we can start figuring out what needs to practically happen in
terms of dismantling their uranium, their platonium development um. And then and then figuring out a timeline that's realistic. That's what I was gonna ask you. And how long would you estimate, I mean, rough rough terms? Here is this a month's process or a year's process, a year's long process once it gets going. So I've heard um from the folks who sort of are more open to a longer process, some of the folks that are a little bit more just arms control ish, you know, got to
give the North Korean some space and time. I've heard estimates up wards to fifteen years. I think that the administration, No way is the Trump administration going to take that long, um to do it. On the On the and I've actually heard the administration officials today, no, no way, the way we accept that because then the North would have some opportunity to to kind of you know, jerk inspectors around and trying to just do these things piecemeal, um
as they get economic relief. On the other end, I've heard very reliable nuclear experts, sources of mind say two years, two years is doable, and really you can get you can get some major stuff, some uranium enrichment processing, and you can start getting missiles out of there very quickly, and within two years you have significantly depleted their program. And then it'll probably be another eighteen months or so after that before you finally are comfortable getting getting you know,
the really bad stuff out of there. Um, that timeline, of course, would be much more suitable to the Trump administration, because President Trump would want this to be done by the time he's leading office, so that there's not another opportunity, you know, if somebody does, if he does have a predecessor after one term. Now, you mentioned the You mentioned the Libya model, which uh and and also alluded to the fact that in some ways it worked, in other
ways clearly didn't. Right, It depends on which libyat what phase of Olibya moda you're talking about it. Certainly if you're to ask a member of the Caddafi family, they'd have a very different view of, you know, how how it went as it went along. But assuming that they were going to try something along those lines, the security guarantees part of it, I'm just curious what that because
Pompeo has talked about it, you mentioned her today. I mean, we're gonna say, yeah, of course, we're not gonna anyone attack you. Is there more to it than that? Yeah. So here's the thing. Here's the here's a dilemma that we are never going to get around, and that's that the United States should never and we can't really ever
provide security guarantees from a dictator's own people. So if if if Kim Jong Nunn is going to continue to be a ruthless, bloody dictator where he's putting his people into goologs, we were not going to defend him against an uprising from people who want who want a better path, you know, if he continues down that road. So that's something that the United States just can't really do. UM. Now we can provide security assurances that we are not going to be the aggressors against him, nor are we
going to help um an insurrection against him. That that would be something that we would completely stay out of. That. That's something that people kind of conflate with what happened with the Obama administrations helping the insurrection that came up against Kadafi. UM in Libya, I believe, I believe it was two thousand fourteen. You can correct me if I'm wrong there, but UM that you know, the adbministration went ahead.
It was really Hillary Clinton is my understanding, who pushed for this, really helped you know, provided eight and support to overthrow Kadafi which led to his led to his death. UM, that was not part of the Bush administration Libya model for removing the w m d s out of Libya. That was something that happened, you know, years later, a couple of years later, when you had this uprising coming
out of Libya. UM, And clearly the obaministration wasn't thinking of the non proliferation concerns or ramifications that would lead to that where people dictators are not gonna say, okay, I get rid of my nukes and then I end up I ends up deposed and executed. Um. Those were kind of two separate things. So so back to security
guarantee is real quick. So what we can do? You know, we can, we can, We can find a treaty just saying that we were not we have no intention, which I believe that Trump administration has no intention of regime change in North Korea. UM, and and that you know,
we can we can provide that. That's why I think that President Trump has been so in my view, kind of painfully friendly towards Kim John Nun because it can't just be something that we say, Kim John Nunn has to believe that President Trump and his administration is not looking for an opportunity to knock off Kim after we take his nukes, and so you know, it's it's it's going to take a lot of persuading and before we
let you go back. I just want to ask, here's General Keene over Fox News, Uh, thinking about this as an opportunity to play four teen? What an historic opportunity this is for Kim John Long he actually can move towards peace and towards prosperity for his country and also to guarantee truly the survivability of his regime, his family, and the elites around him. That's the opportunity he has
in front of him. It's it's going to be fascinated to see, you know, if he reaches for it, and if he goes back to the old game book of the past, Uh, then the alternative is horrific. Becky, do you think that Kim Jong un really does see this is at least an opportunity and can you give us any Are you willing to make any prediction or wager
about the chances of success here? I just I feel like I can't speculate here because I feel like it's so there's such a great temptation for analysts at this point to to just kind of um really put on what they wish is going to happen, um, you know, and trying to think that that's kind of what what what will happen? For sure? I mean, all I can only say is Kim dungan has had every opportunity to take his country in a different direction, and he has not done. So. He is a he is the sole
dictator of North Korea. The missile tests, the nuclear tests have only increased under his rule. They have not decreased. The ruthlessness has only gotten worse under his rule. Um. And he continues to know anytime there's somebody with around him providing him advice and counsels, anybody doesn't reflexively agree with him or support him, they're either executed or replaced
by somebody else. So I'm I'm very very skeptical, but they do there There are a couple of little things that have a little spark of hope in me, and that is that just in the past couple of days, there's been a change in tone from North Korean state propaganda that has been has taken a softer tone towards the US and President Trump. That's a big deal because you've got to see that shift in the state run propaganda to prepare the North Korean people for peace, if
peace is to be had, that's changed. And the fact that President Trump is such an unconventional president and he is willing to use force. I've said that before. I don't think President Trump is blessing on that point. And so when you have this backdrop of a threat of military force, President Trump has said he's got three hundred additional sanctions he's ready to flat back on if the
talks don't work out. And as we just saw from the G seven summit, President Trump is perfectly willing to tear up deals that he doesn't think are good or agreements. So yeah, we'll have to see if this time is different. Rebecca, once we have more information on how it went, we'll have you back. Rebecca Hinrix of the Hudson Institute. Everybody, Rebecca, thank you so much. Thanks back, Team quick break will be right back. Can't even order a chicken sandwich without
getting yourself into trouble these days, folks. It's not really the America I I I wander. It's not the America I thought I signed up for, or I guess I was born here. But the America. We've got though. Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey over the weekend started a social media firestorm because he ordered food from Chick phill A. Now I have had some of chick placed food. It is very delicious. Why you might ask, would a major national food chain and somebody just ordering food from it be
a problem? Well, Solidad O'Brien, who is a particularly shrill and unwatchable morning host over at CNN, which has more than its fair share of sanctimonious, shrill and terrible hosts in general. Uh. They She wrote to him, interesting company to boost during Pride Month Jack for Jack Dorsey's CEO of Twitter, and he responded, you're right, completely forgot about their background. So you know, you've really got to try hard to make or literally saying hey, I just ordered
a chicken sandwich. Uh. A political issue. Now where you order your food, my friends, is going to be used as a judgment against you because of the way progressive view things. Everything is political always at all times. There is no escape. They won't stop. This is a it's
really a mass mental illness that they have. It's it's a delusion, it's a fixation and they need help, but they will not separate it and what I what I think we are all seeing is increasingly it's increasingly obvious that for the left, politics replaces the space in the UH in the mind for spirituality, for relationship with God, and for real meaning, real meeting, not who I voted for. Look at me. I care about the environment. I mean things that actually matter who you are as a human being.
The left has replaced that with I am a Democrat, and that has led to a lot of very, very bad things. The FBI calls home title theft one of the fastest growing crimes out there. And brace yourself, because if you've had your credit card soon, it's nothing compared to the how you're in for once an identity thief takes control of your home's title. You know. Look, everything is online these days. That means everything is vulnerable to hackers, to electronic theft. That also means the whole world is
the pool of bad guys you're talking about here. But guess what they want Americans. They want to go after American home titles because we have equity in our homes. All they do is set it up in your name, They take an alias UH, and then they borrow every penny they can against your homes equity. You need to prevent this stuff.

Buck Sextons decoding the news and disseminating information with actionable intelligence, no mistakes, American grant You're a great American again. This is the Buck Sexton Show. Analysts. No, I like it when the liberals tell us what they really think. I like it when they slip up a little bit and us know what's what's really going on in their minds, that's really
going on in their heads. I think that that's a a good thing for all of us because then we can start to get closer to the truth. And you had a few instances of that when it comes to the economy over the weekend. I thought it was very illuminating to hear from them. First off, you had Bill Maher who said this. I mean, he had to know he was gonna make headlines when he said this. But I think it's a a much more widespread sentiment than
liberals want to admit. I think this is if you were to pull them, at least quietly, if you were to pull them and get honest answers, I think most liberals you know would probably say, yeah, this would be a good thing. Play clip three. Please, this economy is going pretty well. I feel like the bottom has to fall out at some point, and by the way, I'm hoping for it because I think one way you get to Trump is a crashing economy. So please bring on
the recession. Sorry if that hurts people, but it's either roof for a recession or you lose your democracy. Yep, you heard it there, folks. Some guys paid millions of dollars to go on TV and make stale, derivative jokes and be pretty nasty to people on a regular basis. That guy is openly advocating for a recession, which, let me just put because he doesn't ever think about this
part of it. That means that people lose their jobs, means that people lose their homes, means that people's streams are crushed, means their life savings can be wiped out. It means that the suicide rate actually goes up as
the unemployment rate goes up in a recession. Now, I know that recessions happen, but you don't see me sitting around saying, you know what would really be a good thing for the Republicans right now, a mass casualty terror attack, because we know that we can trust Republicans more than Democrats to actually fight back on national security right. To say that would be it would be a gross thing to say. To wish that would would show a real
hole in the soul. But to wish for a recession that would result in a lot of economic pain, which can result in all kinds of other pain to for people. You can't pay their medical bills, can't pay their mortgages, can't send their kids to the schools they want to send them to. I mean, there's a lot that comes with there. I mean, a really serious recession just goes to show you where they are. And this is openly rooting against the United States of America from the left.
That's what it is. We should call it. That they are rooting for not the failure of a policy, but hoping for widespread pain among the American people to advance their own political agenda. So in a sense I have to thank mar for at least being honest, because I don't think he's the only one. There are some others who are slightly less straightforward in how they say it, but you certainly get the sense that they have a similar and stated mind for all this, Like hey, shake,
has Nancy Pelosi play clift for? So this isn't just about the unemployment rate, It's about wages rising in our country so that consumer confidence is restored because our economy will never fully reach its um uh possibilities unless we increase the confidence, and that can only be increased by the better deal, better jobs, better wages, housing subsidies, and the rest has not gone down because of the wage stagnation unless we have an increase, very significant increase in
wages and bigger paychecks. Are we were going to increase the frustration of America's families because they'll be saying, hip hip hoerae, unemployment is down. What does that mean to me? I need a bigger paycheck. Hip hip hooray, unemployment is down? Now I know that. Then she goes on to say I need a bigger paycheck. But first of all, everyone feels like they need a bigger paycheck. You find me someone that's getting paid a paycheck, and I'll show you
somebody that wishes they were making a little more. But to dismiss unemployment, and then also to kind of go on this ramble there about well, you know, we have to have ray raise wages. Nancy Pelosi Democrats. They're only possible plan to raise wages is to raise the minimum wage, which anyone who has studied it will tell you sounds good. And a lot of people go, you know what, I kind of like the idea. I kind of like the idea of the minimum ways being rached. I think that
there's something to that. Um as people say that, they don't realize that then there are all these other things that come along with it. Right that you can squeeze the balloon at one side, but it doesn't get rid of the air, just moves it to the other. Most people who make minimum wage are not the sole wage earner in their households. That's for one. So in many cases they are not trying to feed a family of four or what have you. On a minimum wage job.
They're one of two earners. But when you raise a minimum wage, it can also mean that they cut back the employer will cut back on ours, for example, as a way to limit costs. The employer will automate as a way to limit costs. The employer will yes sometimes even fire people as a way to limit costs. Minimum wage is increases are rarely helpful. They are poorly targeted for assisting those who are most in need, who are working. It's not the way that It's not the way it
works out, but it just sounds good. Keep all feel like, Yeah, they're just just pay people are working hard, Pay them more. People working hard, pay them more. Well, if only it were that easy. But I think that Nancy Pelosi is at least somewhat illiterate on the issue of economics. I think she had just frankly has no idea what she's talking about. I don't think that Nancy Pelosi understands what it is to be worried about bills. I don't think Nancy Pelosi understands what it is to have to actually
excel in a private sector business. She married a very wealthy man and has been a politician for a very long time, so she is not somebody would turn to a on this. But even more than that, you're seeing this common theme. Now with the Democrats, it's gonna get louder. I think you're going to see more of it. Oh my gosh, the economy is going well, this is terrible. What are we gonna do? And more than that, it's not just that things are going pretty well. They're going
very well. And they didn't tell us, Oh, Trump will be president and we'll kind of like slog along and things will more less be held together. But you know, eventually it's all gonna come uh well, you know, the things that more or less hold together. They've been telling us that this was going to be a disaster, that Trump was going to crater the economy, that you were gonna lose your savings, lose your you know, you're in
your equity, in your home, all this different stuff. And now we're seeing reports actually that states have more jobs
than people looking for jobs. Quite a difference from what was initially offered up um and and quite a distinction, I have to say, from what the never mind the the worst projections, that the standard conventional wisdom projections, but what a Trump presidency would look like, and if he gets his way on trade, I think we may and this is by the way, we have Um, I don't think we have audio of this, but I saw Cramer over on CNBC was saying, look, uh, the market believes
Trump is right about trade. You know, if this was gonna be some terrible trade war, ever's gonna lose all this money and all these bad things are gonna happen. Don't you think the market would be pricing that in a bit more? Don't you think that there would be a recognition that, you know, the market is um more fragile than it seems right now. There's not gonna be a trade war, folks. You heard it here. First. Trade
war is not gonna happen. There will be a series of back and forth negotiations on issues of trade, and we will see how it goes beyond that. I mean, I can't tell you the specifics. I just know that Trump has been swimming so hard upstream against this, against this notion that the the trade order that we currently have is some irreplaceable and untouched both circumstances. You know, people don't even really think about this. There are a lot of ways that countries mess with us on trade,
A lot of ways. There's ad valorum tariffs, right, So ad valorum is the value. It's Latin for to the value, and that's a percentage of the overall tariff. But there's also quotas that countries can put in place. There are uh, you know, voluntary import restrictions. There are or export restrictions rather pardon me, um. There are ways to slow people
down just at customs, to make them less competitive. I mean, the countries have bureaucracies, which is what a government is, have lots of ways of making it easier for their producers to compete in the market then for outside folks. So you know, Trump has taken aim at all this stuff, and I think that also could have some real lift, you know, on the economy. I remember what it was
like under Obama. We were being told folks, because they couldn't manufacture numbers, right we we they couldn't lie about the food stamp number. They couldn't lie about the unemployment number and the amount of people out of work and the percentage out of work. For years, we were being told, you know, growth like we used to have in America
is never coming back. We were told that GDP what three or four or five, that's just that's a fantasy, and we need to get used to the idea that Obama era, you know, two one point five persent whatever was back in then, the GDP back then, that that was as good as it can be. And Obama was doing a great job. And when you think about it, what was it. What was the Obama administration doing to
encourage entrepreneurship, small business and productive economic activity. I don't mean raising taxes and giving it out to a bunch of you know, democrat agenda item agenda items on the list. I don't mean using taxpayer funds as a grab bag for what the left wanted. What were they really doing to encourage businesses and to help people be in a position to put food on the table, or more importantly, to stop being in the way of them putting food on the table. And the answer is, you know, nothing
really comes to mind. You had a president who was weak on the economy for eight years. Yeah, you know, he came into office, spent a bunch of money, and told everybody, oh, look how bad the Bush economy was. He used that bad Bush economy line for four years, four years. You know, I don't think you would have even had an Obama presidency if there was you know, if you hadn't had that recession which was decades really in the macha and in the making, and was a
cyclical as well, So we'll see. I'm I'm a little concerned. You know, people are gonna say, well, what about inflation. I mean, there are some things that could become part of our economic picture that would be uh troubling, and you know, oh my gosh. I think the only thing right now that would that would excite the left more than Mueller actually bringing some kind of formal criminal charge
against the President United States. I think the only thing that would get them more psyched than that would be if there was a although maybe that's number one, but the only thing that's close to that would be if they found a if there was a major economic downturn and they could just just annihilate the president President's administration
for what's going on with the economy. That would make them happier than anything else, because right now they're just they're beside there, beside themselves with all the good news. They can't handle all this good news, all the good things that are happening. It's making them so sad. You know, it's like the Grinch watching lots of little kids open Christmas presents. It's just terrible, cannot compute. So Trump was right about taxes. We'll see if he's right about trade.
I think I think he will end up being right about trade. It but do not forget that the left was rooting for you to have less money and for your town, your city, your state to be in a worse financial circumstance than it is because they want somebody back in office who's going to cry about climate change and make the government a bigger force in your life telling you what to do. That's what they really want. Eight four four buck, if you want to chat eight

You know, there's this photograph that's making the rounds, and I think it's so funny because it is I know this is a cliche thing to say, but it's a roar shock test for how you feel about Trump and the kind of the international an all order such as it is where you had a at that G seven meeting that we started talking about the top of the show in in Canada with the Trudeau, who, by the way, is the eyebrow thing real, Mike? Do we know? Was
that just a meme? No? I think his eyebrow fell off, didn't his eyebrow fall and he has a fake eyebrow and it fell off during the press conference. He's got brow tupace, he's got to Is that a thing? I don't even know that was a thing even in Canada. Oh, you crazy Canucks. Yeah, it's it was. It was very strange to look at I thought, Yeah, I mean, I don't know if those were doctored photos. They're making the rounds.
Somebody here in the office accused me of being a brow truther, and I'm like, no, I really think they're fake. Like I think he wears fake browse like instead of wearing eyeliner. He's a dude. He wears fake brows, which look if he if he had like an accident with a chemistry set or something and burned his brow, I'd be like, all right, you know, you gotta you gotta
keep the fur up top. But but you just wear fake else because it's I don't know, as as a dude, it's just I didn't know that was the thing that we did, or or a lot of guys are saying, well, well we don't, yeah exactly, we don't, or we just don't. But so, yeah, that happened. So now I'm apparently an eyebrow truther. Uh. And then you also have this photo of Merkel where she's uh, and the New York Times here as the headline defying a bully or exchanging views.
G seven photos tell different stories. Um, and yeah, you got Merkel who's like wearing exactly what you'd expect Merkel. Twere it's like it's, you know, it's very much like I'm running the country, but I don't want anyone to get to any ideas. Um. And she's looking at at Trump and she's leaning over this table at Trump. And you've got all these other world leaders in Bolton and uh, yeah,
they're all gathered around Matt Kron. I can see Mat Cross four and he's like, might we being I am a middle of the road technocraft in France, but we all like the stinky cheese. Uh And he's by the
way I am. Actually if when I go into a fromagerie or any kind of a cheese a fancy cheese place where they have a un CoV for the cheese, I think is what they call it, I'm always like, I want to give me the smelliest I want the cheese that smells so bad that people think that there's something wrong with you, and you're carrying it around like
it could clear a subway car for you. That's the cheese that I really like, and I eat it without everythinking like, maybe this is Mother Nature's way of saying, don't eat it, but I don't care because the gooey, stinky, smelly cheese. I think I learned once, and it's after I had kind of a bad incident with cheese that if there you can tell by the color of the mold on it. I'm pretty sure that like green and blue, that's mold, which you know, if you want to eat that,
that's up to you. But I think if the mold is read that is a no. No. I could check on that, but that's an important safety tip for everybody, because I was on the wrong side of that one once. Not a good It was not a good night. Um. So, anyway, they got Merkel looking at Trump and Trump sitting down and she's Everyone's like, oh, she's starring m Down for the World Order or whatever, and I just love this.
The more you can have Merkel, who has been aptly described as European Nationalisms Woman of the Year, the more you can have because she's such an internationalist and the disasters that befell her country from her particularly open door migration policy that she kicked off. Uh, this is great, this is almost it's not quite as easy a an ad campaign as having uh, what's his name de Niro say blank Trump, but having Merkel staring at Trump and him staring back at this photo. If you know what
I'm talking about. It just goes to show you that most of us see it as like, yeah, that's right, He's not taking orders from Merkel anymore. And she's like, but Donald, we had something special, and uh, He's like nope. And that was the way it happened. By the way, I've got my big announcement about why I'm in d C. I'm gonna tell you about that literally right after the break. So I've been telling you guys that there would be
an announcement coming, and I can finally make it. I know, I've I kept getting pushed back and push back and push back, not on me. It had to do with some tech issues here, and we had to get all of our all of our ducks lined up, and and why do we line up? I guess is that for like ducks in a shooting galleries? That why we line up the ducks. But we we are finally the place
where I can tell you what's going on. You all know I love New York City as much as I am a I don't know, hardcore conservative or at least a a conservative for as long as I can remember remembering anything. I also love my hometown. It's a fun place, a lot going on. It's where I'm most comfortable, where my family is, so it takes a lot to get me to leave. And I am down here in the swamp. Now I think this is I like to think this
is now part of my path. I'd like to think this is the mission that I have to come down here during the Trump administration and do my thing mere blocks from the White House. I am now just blocks from the White House, and I will be seeing a whole lot of White House folks in the day's, weeks and months ahead, So that is one of the advantages of being here. Here's the announcement. I am launching the
Hill dot COM's TV channel. It'll be a digital TV channel called Hill dot tv that will start this Wednesday. Actually will be our first on air show. If you want to watch it, you can just go to the website Hill dot tv and see what's going on with that. You can check out the show. I will be doing a morning show and it's going to be something like think of it like a little bit like Fox and Friends, but with a female co host, Crystal Ball, who is a liberal, and I am, of course the male co host.
I am a conservative. So we are doing a kind of male female Hannity and Combs for the morning. But it's gonna be conversation, not there won't be a lot of it. There's gonna be some debates, but it's not gonna be shouty or angry. We've been running, We've been doing lots of run throughs, and you know what, what's it like when two people different perspectives are setting up the news for the day and and doing it in a way that's uh, that's fun and friendly and insightful.
That's what we're going for. That is our mission. We are trying to We are trying to do our very best here to do something different than what you're seeing out there right now, because it is meant I've been I've been a media for seven years and it is the most polarized climate by far right now in that seven years. In terms of people that work in the business. It is just it's never been quite like this before.
It's never been as intense a uh not just a separation of people based upon their opinions, but really a hatred of the other side. It's just nuts. Anyway, we're gonna get away from that. We'll be launching a segment we've already we've already put it in motion, so it's gonna happen called Buck in a Bar where we're gonna get newsmakers, politicians, interesting folks, authors, whomever to sit down with me in a bar and drink and talk about things.
That will be one of our segments. We're gonna visit the embassy's year and visit with chefs at the embassies and do a whole presentation of what the national cuisine is and how the chef prepares it. So there's gonna be that morning show component to A two. We've got pop culture interviews, we gotta We've got a big movie director joining us for the Wednesday show. Oh we are. The line of a guest for the first two weeks is it's if we get everybody that we're supposed to
get right now. Remember they have to actually show up, and we're talking about top echelon of government and some other very very senior folks. We're gonna have quite a line of guests for those those first couple of weeks of the show for sure, and then we're gonna get into a rhythm of you know, who do we want any given day and what the But yeah, that's what it is. Team. I'm I'm gonna be on on the h well, digital TV screen. It's not gonna be cable. They're not gonna try to get in the cable game.
We think that with streaming, you know, Netflix, whol at all, that agital TV is the way of the future. And you know, is it is it the wave or the way of the future? Right? I feel like you could say either. This is one of those phrases that I think a lot of people get wrong. I know I do, uh, But but it is how things are going to be, and I think it'll be a fun opportunity for those of you who like it when I do the the Fox hits. And by the way, all of your support
with all that is uh is really so very appreciated. Um. I can tell you that whenever I go on and you guys like, hey, saw you buck a job or something, that's just so nice, it really is. I don't think that. I don't ever think that when I see something or if I can give you a thumbs op or you just even see that's been delivered or read as a message that I don't appreciate it. I do every single time. I like hearing from all of you, and whenever I can get a message from any of you, it is
really meaningful to me. So thank you for that. But yeah, we're gonna be launch a crystal Ball. Is great. We're really enjoying our rapport. I mean, it's obviously gonna be interesting to see how you have a a Democrat and a Republican discussing the news day in and day out. But we think it'll be a really good fun show that's got a fresh approach and all the all the jargon that you expect from TV execs, I think it actually applies here. So that's what I'm doing. That's why
I'm down here in the swamp. That's why I have uprooted myself from being at UH Radio h Q, the Freedom Hunt HQU in New York City and set up afford Operating Afford Operating UH Command post here or a combat outpost. Really that this is the Freedom Hut. This is the Freedom Hunt Combat Outpost in d C. That's really where I am, because we're here on the front
lines now, right in the center of the swamp. But but I'm doing that show, and we're very, very excited about it, and I I think it is gonna be great. It also means that I will have one of the longest work days of any person in the media that I've ever heard of. Ever. I'll be getting up every day about five thirty in the morning and I'll be finishing with you all radio at nine o'clock at night. Yes, I am planning to basically pass out on the floor and take a nap in the middle of the day
somewhere if I have to. But this is how much I wanna This is how much I want to be of a person with an impact at the national level conversation that I'm willing to extend myself even more. Three our radio shows a full time job. This is now really multiple full time jobs being packed on top of each other. So all of your support team, your thoughts, um and and and as much as you're willing to. It's free, of course, I mean that it's you don't
have to pay for this channel. If you have internet, if you have cell service, you can watch Hill dot tv, um, and it would really mean a lot if in my first week or two I had a lot of you just tuning in, but also you know, commenting and sharing and trying to help spread the word. It'll make me look good in front of my my new bosses down here. So I asked that favor of you as we prepare for everything, everything else that's that's coming in the weeks ahead.
So that's the That was the big announcement. That's why I'm here in the swamp hill dot TV buck Sexton launching a political talk show morning show as a co host, and there'll be some other good programming on Hill dot TV as well. And man, when you see some of the contributors we have lined up from down here, I think a lot of you're gonna be very excited. The people that are gonna be regulars joining us. Young smart, dynamic folks. That's what we're That's what we're that's the
center of the wheelouse. Yeah. Of course we're also gonna have the dirsh and some folks from the other the other end of the generational spectrum. But we're we're going for young, savvy hip. Nobody who's actually hip uses the word hip. But you know, you say hip, it sounds like are about to need a hip replacement. But you know what I mean. I think it's gonna be a great program. I think it's gonna be a lot of fun.
And uh, like I said, please do tune in. So with that team, I will also ask if you want to call in, please do eight four four to five eight fo buck, We'll be right back. You know, there's a story out there right now that it is getting
not nearly enough attention or coverage. It's one of these stories that I look at, I say to myself, this should be something that everyone in the country who cares about the Muller probe into Trump, the Russia collusion fantasy, the witch hunt, the all the the swamp strikes back efforts against Trump, people should be very aware of one aspect of this that somehow is flying under the radar.
And I gotta give credit to Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck grass Lee who is continuing, continuing to move the ball downfield despite incredible and I would say increasingly obviously political opposition to getting to the truth. So here's what's going on. By the way, by Byron york Is also doing some excellent reporting on this at the Examiner. So Grassley wants to see at this point, and he keeps remember he is Senate Judiciary Committee has oversight for the
FBI for Department of Justice. He wants to see the Michael Flynn three oh two. The three oh two is the record that the FBI would have kept of the interaction between FBI agents and Michael Flynn. Now, I want to make something very clear. I know from defense attorney friends of mine that you should always as somebody who you all know. Now and I'm not saying that FBI agents aren't you in very good stuff, and I'm not putting the FBI down as an institution, but the FBI
is out there. There's an aggressiveness to law enforce and that you need to have. The FBI is out there to get people. They try to only get bad guys, but they don't only get bad guys, and they're out there to get people. They're not out there to make friends and bake cookies and hang out. And you have to remember that because when they are sitting for an interview with you, if they're just gonna take notes, is very important that you would first of all I have
a lawyer present. That's step one. Don't say, Remember, Mike, what's our rule about talking to the FBI, what's our rule? Don't ever lie on? No? But yes, that's true, But what's our what's our even better rule? Do what they say? Don't talk Mike, Dude, you're gonna get so jammed up, you're gonna call me. I'm going to bail you out, have to. I'm gonna have to get you like a fake passport, call some of my old buddies and get
you some stuff and get you out. That's anything wrong thought. Yeah, I know you're you're Mike's Mike's uh a very upstanding citizen. But yeah, Mike, our rule is never talk to the FBI. Do not talk to them that And now that rule changes when it's one you've been the victim of a crime. Yeah, and you talk to the FBI. Right, But I'm saying, if you are a suspect or if they want to
question you, do you do not talk to the FBI. Uh. And and you also don't allow them to take notes of your interview because those will be used in court against you, especially if there's a question about veracity, if there's an issue of truthfulness one way or the other. You need to have a lawyer present. You also need to have I I highly recommend this, and this comes
from defense attorney friends of mine. I know some very very sharp I have some dear friends who are incredibly sharp legal minds, and I steal from their knowledge as much as I possibly can. You want to have a recording of the meeting if you can. You want a full on recording of everything that is said. That way, it can't be well, I thought you said it this way, and you know that way. They can't decontextualized statements and everything else, right, But that all goes to the three
or two. The three oh two is the written uh, the written account uh, the written account of what the exchange was. And Grassley wants to see the three oh two of Michael Flynn. Um, you know that that's where they take their notes, because he wants to know, how is it that call me? Later on testified to Congress that they did not believe. They did not believe that then that incoming National Security Advisor Flynn had lied to
the FBI. And then all of a sudden, Muller gets involved in the situation, and you've got a guilty plead, and people say, he pleaded guilty. Pleaded guilty. Okay, here's how this game goes. FBI shows up, they say, we can bankrupt you even if you're innocent. We can ruin your life. We can put you in prison for at least three or four years on the lying alone. Or you can agree or just tell us whatever you know about everything you know, and you will not go to
prison at all. How many people go, you know what, I'm gonna roll the dice on that one and see if I can beat a team of prosecutors, seasoned prosecutors with near unlimited resources for the purposes of, you know, as prosecutions go. And I want to roll the dice on that one. Okay. This notion that if you plead, you are obviously this is like saying, well he was convicted, well he was exonerated. Is he still convicted if someone's exonerated, no,
of course not. When someone's found to be innocent and they released out of prison, do we say, well he was convicted, so you know he still did it. No, of course not. The process is not perfect. We just go with the process because it's the best thing that we have. But if there's something else that comes along, we have to adjust, uh and reevaluate. So grassly wants the three O two is from the FBNI. Here here's a surprise, everybody. FBI doesn't want to give Brassie the
three or two that producer Mike doesn't. It seem a bit strange because he's already pleaded guilty. You know what the FBI's justification for holding back this information, which the Senate Judiciary Committee chairman and his colleagues are clearly legally entitled to, They said they don't want to prejudice an ongoing investigations, so they're holding onto it. Here's a problem with that. He's already pleaded guilty. How do you prejudice an ongoing and pleaded guilty? By the way, a long
time ago, uh, December one, he took a plate. So here we are, uh, you know, in June after many months after that. Please, and you'ren't telling me that we can't know the information or rather there the Senate, Well, the Senate can't know the information first because it's gonna prejudice investigation. That's just a that's just a malarkey, bogus claim. It's not one that anyone who's paying attention should should consider serious and take seriously. But here we are, and
that's what the FBI is saying. And now we don't know yet, but it's looking increasingly like they weren't going to charge Flynn. Then Mueller came along and came up with some version of events or you know, decided to flip around the prosecutorial discretion here and decided that they were going to charge Flynn in order to get him
to flip on Trump and his people. But in doing so, they may have been over zealous and perhaps even unethical and essentially cheated Flynn of his of being treated fairly. They might have treated Flynn very unfairly. I mean, they might have used him as a fall guy here so
he could be a tool against Trump. And that's something you get a real good sense of in the three or two is the fact that the FBI refuses to look to let the Senate Oversight Committee for this or this the Senate committee with oversight of d O j C. This is a very troubling sign, but it's also a very telling one deep State is trying to hide. My friends, it is very important we did not let them get
away with it. We'll be right back. You know, one of my friends in the office down here in d C today, one of my new colleagues on Hill dot tv is like, Hey, what's that. What's that? Uh batch of different cake cups you got there on your desk. I'm like, oh, I'm sorry, you mean my Black Rifle coffee cake cups. That's right, these are delicious tossed the commie coffee.

I'm gonna say one thing, Trump, It's no longer down with trumpets Trump, listen to them, cheer friends, just just drink it all in. That was at the Tony Awards over the weekend, because apparently the Tony Awards
are still a thing. I didn't really even know that, but Broadway and live plays and all that, they're still people that get really excited about it. The Tony Awards last night, you had uh, obviously Robert de Niro standing up there, and you know, some others have been pointed out to me. I feel like de Niro is one of these guys who's gotten very far, and I know you're gonna get a little bit, a little bit, you know, a little well angry at me maybe on this one.
But he's played the same character for forty years more or less. You say, oh about Cape, Fear Meet the Parents. If you go back and watch Cape, he's like, Hey, I'm like a real scary, redneck, evil guy. Like it doesn't it doesn't really ring true now. I don't think it really holds up. I think that movie is I think a movie is a little overrated, quite honestly, Uh, is he good in Is he good in The Heat? Yeah? I mean is he good in The Godfather? Sure? Is
he good in Good Fellas? But he's really the same. He's like, he's like, hey, you'm rubb with the Neiro you know, you know I'm good. I'm like kind of you know, it's like the same guy in every movie. I'm trying to say, it's a little bit of the uh, the Vince vaun situation. Who seems like and I've heard actually he's a very nice guy and it's a little bit libertarian. So that's always nice too to hear. Although I think he had a troubling or a troubled week
last week. But Vince Vaughn, I feel like it's pretty much the same guy in every show, in every movie, every show. It's worked for him. He's had a great career so far. But their limitations there. Anyway, Why do we care about this? A couple of ways we can we can unpack this. One is to say we don't care at all. Buck, Why are we trying to Robert Niro? He's a jerk. He's acting like a jerk. Nothing about him that is not jerk. Like, we shouldn't give him
the attention. We shouldn't give him the uh, the ability to spout off like this, to mouth off like this and have people across the country I have to care and here, but no, no, no, I'm not playing that Roberton Neal clip so much to say, oh gosh, look another act. And this comes after the whole debacle with Samantha b and calling Avanka the C word. No, no, we know that the left is course. We know that even these coddled, overpaid, self indulgent celebrities who who are
just now little automatons of progressivism. It's an astonishing thing when you think about it. What whatever happened due you know, just be thankful that you're able to be a thespian. You know, you're able to be an actor and make a really great living. I've gotten so lucky, and try to entertain people, make people feel better, inspire people, tell stories that matter. That that's not enough. You have to also be up to look boom bamp Trump. Really, that's
what you have to do. So yeah, yeah, I know I'm getting a little bit of a look at Hollywood there still gross. But but the more important takeaway from this is that Robert de Niro standing up and saying F. Trump is really an in kind in donation to the r n C that we can run this as an ad. And it's not just the DeNiro said it because that's okay. He's one guy, he's not very smart, who cares. But that the entire room. They didn't just laugh, they didn't
just cheer. They stood up laughing and cheering. They stood up and made a whole thing of it, standing ovation for F the current President United States at the Tony Awards, which is another thing, by the way, I don't go to I don't go to Broadway shows in New York. I've been to some of them. They're so heavy handed and political all the time. Unless you're gonna go see like Street or Guys and Dolls or something, yeah, that's great,
that's fine. But if you see anything that's getting awards, you know, that's getting Tony's, you're gonna see something about you know, the the you know, the the transgendered geisha. Who I mean, there's always like some always some really heavy handed political you know. I went to I went to one show I was brought to one years ago and the actor and the main role jumped out into the audience and grabbed a man by his head and and tried to stick his tongue down his throat, like
I'm not kidding. I was in the role right behind him, so I saw the whole thing. It was weird. It was weird. Um anyway, So the Tony's are are completely on another They're they're progressive in a way that even liberals I know are like. And I mean the Tony's, I mean the whole theater scene is way left. Uh, but it's it's kind of like radical art radical artiste. But when you have these people standing up and they're cheering, they haven't The big takeaway is they haven't learned a
damn thing. They just don't get it. And I I console myself, or rather I I calm myself by pointing out that the best possible thing is that they keep doing this, and that enough of the American people see the progressive left for the feted cesspool without principles, without kindness, without ideas, just a collectivist, totalitarian mindset that has seized
our cultural institutions. Siezed are college campuses in academia really through a form of social and political force that the more people see this for what it is the better and that the best thing that can happen is that they have to live in an America with Trump, not for two more years, but for six more years, six more years of Trump. They deserve it. We deserve it because we know it's a good thing, but they deserve it because they need to be put through what for
them is a nightmare. I mean, Trump staying in office is the equivalent of like throwing water on a progressive which I now dang, I now dang, who throw water on Hillary? So mean? But that's what this is going to be. Like. I I am going to be more more fired up about Trump getting reelected in any election in my lifetime, way more so then I felt about trying to defeat Obama back in and I still think it.
Romney would have been a good present, not transformational, not and I mean transformational in response to the transformation of Obama. I think Romney would have been a a solid steward of the American executive branch and the U. S. Economy. I do. I think he would have been very solid, and I think we would have been spared some of the worst excesses of obama Ism in the two point
over version of the second term. But we we need to be reminded by people like de Nero, by people like Samantha b Uh and others, of what anti trumps Um really is. And at its core, it is uh. It is ignorance, It is nastiness, It is an unwillingness to engage with ideas. It is a lack of and this is a core characteristic of the Democrats, the progressive left,
all of them, a lack of humility. There's such a sneering, condescending mentality tone, and it's really become a cultural movement among you know, the progressive laughing among Democrats that they just love to find people to look down on, and they love to find people they look down on and pretend to care about them to use them as a cudgel, as a weapon against people they really look down on, which is you and me, which is the opposition, so
to speak. So I I have to say I think that de Niro is is he's helping out our side. He's helping us out by being such a clown and by everybody in that room standing up. And do they think you really have to ask this question? Do they think they're brave for doing that there are very few things that I'm gonna get out of my seat and clap like a trained steal forth. There are very few things that I'm just gonna give a standing ovation for. You know. Uh, a group of you know, wounded veterans
walk into the room standing ovation, right. I mean there are things when them that's called for. These people are giving a standing ovation to a really has been actor who I look, he's had a hugely successful career, and I get all that. But you know, we don't have to pretend like you're important forever. You could just be a normal person. You know, there are enough challenges in life that you don't have to hang onto your fame,
cling onto it with your last fingernails. But that he said this about Trump, I think is going to be much more useful to our side than he ever realized. And and just that sentiment really and it's a reminder they have learned nothing. They still think that the best way to defeat Trump, the best way to win this seismic battle that's underway right now, the seismic shift that's been happening is to mock and ridicule and not to engage,
and not to win over. I really hope they continue with that, because man oh man, they're gonna lose these mid terms and they're gonna have Trump again, and that is going to be sweet. The freedom hup party we have when Trump gets reelected is going to be off the isle. Stay with me. You need the best people when you're getting information on a prospective higher, on a possible tenant, or for a business to business transaction. Background investigations and vetting cannot be an area that you leave
the last minute or that you just look through. You know, whatever comes up online. You need somebody you can trust. You need people that have been vetted. I know the CEO of Global Verification Network, and I know the kind of business he runs. This is simply the best place for you to go for background investigations and vetting. And it is federally certified as a veteran owned small business.
It is headquartered here in Chicago. It's not one of these huge multinationals that will send all your stuff overseas. Their risk mitigation experts can work with you, whatever your industry, whatever size of your company. If you need some background investigations done, you need some vetting, go to my g VN dot com that's my g v N dot com. Or call eight seven seven six nine five eleven seventy nine. That's eight seven seven six one one seven nine to me.
Having an honest Inspector General and we have one, obviates the need for special counsel. He should be looking into this and he will make a report. And we know that he can't prosecute so if they're if they're SI, but he could he could recommend prosecution, but he has to show that there's an actual crime committed and that crime would be prosecuted whether it was done by a
Democrat or Republican or an independent. We have to have one standard of justice for all, and we have to use the criminal law only as a last resort when there's clear evidence beyond a reasonable doubt that an existing statutory crime has been committed. I don't think that standard has been met, and anybody so far involved in this whole disaster, we will all be waiting in the sixteen election.
You know. The Inspector General reports coming out in just a few days, my friends, and I'm seeing that it's it's going to uh, it's going to cover some interesting territory. We're gonna cover some interesting ground. For sure, you have these initial It's tough to know if they are leaks or if they are just speculation, but you definitely have some some consistent enough themes in all of this that you could say to yourself, Okay, hold on, hold on
a second. The the likelihood here is that Comey is about to get tossed under the bus like nobody you have seen in a very long time. And I wonder how the Democrats are going to run with this or what they're gonna do in response to it, because from what I've been told, and I've been talking to sources down here in d C. When he advantage of being in DC. Now, folks, I actually speak to the swamp creatures manoamano, which is nice. I've got my swamp creature
hideouts now I go to them. I talked to them. I find out about them. But one thing you're hearing from a lot of folks down here is that there's very little that Comy is gonna be able to do to prevent both Democrats and Republicans from this report that's coming out on Thursday, from feeling like Comey was just really the whole time, it was just all about Comey that was he wanted to play, you know, really like he was the one above politics guy in the midst
of the whole political hurricane that was going on. A cross wasn't a cross fire hurricane was a name? What that what they called it? That kind of made sense.
They're gonna say that Comey was insubordinate. They're going to say this meaning the Inspector General of the Department of Justice, who people have all been saying as well, is a respectable career guy, nonpartisan, and is going to present findings I think a few hundred pages of findings the So the insubordinate nature of what Comy did, the violation of Department of Justice regulations, they're gonna say, Comey did that.
I think that part is quite clear. By the way, It's very unlikely to me that we'll see a situation where Comy is not not nailed for what he did by standing in front of the American people usurping the authority of the Department of Justice because he thought it was a good idea. Well, maybe Lauretta Lynch shouldn't have had a tarmac meeting with Bill Clinton, maybe that shouldn't have happened. But there's what other thing that I cannot
confirm yet, but I have to wonder. Oh, and the reason Democrats are gonna get upset, I think is this report is allegedly going to include that Comy should not have inserted himself at both points, one where he stood in front of the people said Hillary won't be charged, but then also where he said that the email investigation has been reopened, that that Comy was putting his hands on the political scales and ways that were completely inexcusable.
But the the other reported or I should say, based on my sources, the other thing that I'm I'm hearing about is that there may be an inclusion in this that Comy gave information to his lawyer that was classified and that it had to be scrubbed from his personal you know, personal devices and everything else. If that is true, If there or if there's anything about Comy giving the memos two uh, you know, his friend who then put
them with at leaves from the New York Times. If any of that is true, think about the ramifications would be the guy. That would mean that the guy who bailed Hillary out for MS made the decision against d o J policy, against rules, regulations, and and the better judgment of I think anybody looking at this that guy would also be guilty of mishandling classified information on his own, that same guy. I think that's going to be a very very big issue, very very big problem. And we'll see.
It's also not going to look good for Loretta Lynch. She clearly used horrific judgment. Judgment that is so bad. You have to think, you have to think that there was something else going on, that there was some message or something that they had to say to each other, because otherwise it is so I actually give Clinton and
Lynch some credit here. It is either so colossally stupid that the only explanation that I can come with, other than they had to exchange information in a private setting, was that they're so arrogant that they figured it wouldn't matter.
I think that's a major factor in a lot of what we've seen here with Comey and McCabe and Lynch and all this deep state anti Trump activity that has been uncovered that's very real, and this IG report, it's gonna nail that down so nobody can say, oh, it's not true and while you're lying, uh oh, the people may say that, but they'll be jokes is that there were so much hubers involved that the people that were tied to Hillary that we're assuming Hillary would win, were
so certain she would win that they had almost no fear, almost no real consideration of the possibility that it wouldn't happen, and that they would never be held accountable because the recklessness with Lynch and Comey and some of these others of what they did in their actions could only look
It's true of Hillary too. Hello. The recklessness of what Hillary did could only be explained by she just figured she'd never get caught, and she almost didn't get caught, which I think is something that often gets left out of the conversation. If you don't have like that guja for hacker guy, and a couple of other things that come up. Whatever, some people go, wait a second, what's
this weird Hillary email address? She would have gotten away with the two and it would have gotten away, would good too if it weren't for you Dad nabbit kids like the Scooby Doo guy, right, isn't that what he is? Not what he says at the end, or gosh darnet kids, or is it dag nabbit or gosh darnet can have it. That works right, all right? I have much more for your team. Stay. Oh, we're gonna talk about International House of We don't know what I'll tell you after the break.
I'd love to welcome all of America to the world's first I Hobb restaurant, which stands for the International House of Burgers. Are doing? Are we still going to have pancakes on the menu. We're always going to have pancakes on the menu. We're always going to be I Hop. But America loves burgers in America loves IE Hop, and we thought this was a fantastic combination to bring America's burgers to an iconic brand like I Hop. What the
heck is going on here? It has been the International House of Pancakes for as long as I can remember, my friends, and now they're they're literally changing from I Hop to I Hobb I Hobb. This just strikes me as as completely and utterly at odds with their their previous mission, which was to serve you pancakes that you can't taste, except for the high fruit dose Corns Europe that you tend is actually maple syrup that you pour all over those tasteless pancakes at about three o'clock in
the mornings. It's the only twenty four hour place, and you and your buddies are super drunken. You're in college, and you need to get some substenance because otherwise you're gonna pass out. That's what I know of. I hap, That's all I know of. I ha and and I gotta tell you that this switch to a burger joint resulted in some some truly first class trolling today from some of their competition. Uh, Wendy's from their official Twitter account,
producer Mike, did you see these? These were brilliant? So so Wendy's from their official Twitter account wrote, in response to I hop becoming international house of Burger's, I hobbed Wendy's rights. Can't wait to try a burger from the place that decided pancakes were too hard, and then I gotta get them credit. I have responded, we don't want any beef with you, We just want to share our beef with the world. And then when He's wrote, welcome to the neighborhood. So that was nice. So you know,
it's a nice Twitter. It's nice Twitter because people who are jerks on Twitter or jerks in real life, and then the next one is what a burger? Uh? And they wrote as much as we love our pancakes, we'd never change our name to what a Pancake. I gotta say pretty good stuff from the social media directors at
these two places. Mike, what do you what have your experience has been with I HOP because I feel like it had its niche, and it's niche was kind of cheap, tasteless pancakes, but you can get them twenty four hours a day. Yeah, I for what it is what it is. I love it for that, you know, right, it gets it done and you get the hash browns that vaguely taste of potato, right, you know, there's some you're aware that it's potato. You're just not excited about it, but
it's potato. And you can definitely throw some ketchup on there, and I wouldn't judge you. Usually I judge with ketchup. I always loved the I HOP I love their flavored syrups that they had, like the Get the Blueberry syrup and the regular maple ye strawberry syrup. I always loved the the syrup choices. By the way, how is your how is your J. G. Melins experience. It's amazing. I forgot how good that place was. I told you, really good. I said, I had had a had a craving for
a burger Saturday night. I was on the east side, said going JG. Meltins always a good move, dude. I'm proud of you, well done, well done, thank you. So you know, I hop is now I hobb. I don't think there might you know what it must be. I think it's probably too hard to make money selling, uh, just selling pancakes because it's such a cheap item. It's so inexpensive, and you know, you really need to give people in there, you know, burgers you can you can sell,
you can charge people more. I don't know, that's just my Was there any real explanation, Mike, for why they made the switch other than just you know, oh, we're trying something new. There must be some financial reasons. Yeah, I I just saw I saw the interview this more on Fox and Friends with the President who just spoke um, aside from the name change and this branching out, I didn't hear of any other reason explained. But I'm telling
you there's something. There's something there. I mean, you know, when you get into the food the food business, you know, your margins are everything, and it's probably just not possible to make a real profit selling just uh, selling just pancakes. They really I'm guessing they need to branch out. And you know, the money's in meat. The money's in meat. Wow, people should just hire me to write slogans for them, you know what I'm saying. That's right, that's what I
That's what I should be doing. Um, but I'm not. I'm hanging out with you because it's way more fun and way more important. Uh. Speaking of fun and important, role call is both of those things, and we will be getting into some role call here in just a few minutes. But you have to stay right there, team, because I will be back the show, keeping it real.
It's time for roll call. You know. Originally I thought that that music was a little musaic, like like we're all on an elevator looking at each other slightly awkwardly, like well, what are you doing here? But I actually feel like that music is kind of soothing now, gets me, gets me in the move for some row call, which if you are in the mood, if you have the need, the need for speed and Roll call Facebook dot com, slash box sex or official team buck at a gmail
dot com. So with that, my friends, let me move on to uh what you have to say here? First up, Denny, Hi, Buck love the show, long time Swoop enthusiast since the Real News day days and regular not sporadic. Thank you, sir, listener on podcast looking for some advice. My daughter is going to be in New York City this week to perform at Carnegie Hall. Do you have any advice for what to see and do and most importantly, how to stay safe in the city? Thank you? Buck Shields high
from Denny Well, I do. I have lots of advice on this one, and as I'm now in the swamp I'm in d C, I will tell you please enjoy the city for both of us. I miss it. It is the greatest city in the world, and this place STC really is a swamp by comparison. I am here for purely professional reasons. I this place does not, unfortunately compare to n y C. Which you don't even care about.
The polity, the politics, it doesn't even matter. It's just so much going on that you haven't the anonymity of the masses in New York, which is I think a beautiful thing. I'm a big fan of it. Everyone's way too into their own thing to care about what anyone else is doing, so uh, in terms of what to see and do, I'm a look, if you want to go see Broadway play, go do that. I can't give you any particular insight or advice on that. I don't know much about Broadway. I don't I haven't been to
see much Broadway. But for some people that's a real experience, very New York. I think it's definitely worth it. Actually, if you go to top of the Rocket Rockefeller Center, you may really enjoy that. That's a cool view of the city. People usually go the Empire State Building, but uh, there's that Ellis Island Statute of Liberty. Clearly, even these are the classic tourist things to do for me, I think,
especially this time of year. You start at Central Park, right around the Metropolitan Museum of Art, which is on about eighty four and fifth Avenue ish eighty three and fifth Avenue. Going to the met it's one of the most amazing museums the world. Pick one part of it you really want to see, because otherwise you'll just be overwhelmed it. Spend whatever time you can there and then just walk south through to the park and just kind of go whichever way the paths take you. Eventually you'll
find yourself at Central Park South. You'll be in midtown and you know from there you can go grab a bite or whatever. It is. My favorite neighborhoods in New York City are Greenwich Village, Chelsea UH, and the West Village. If you're into some funkier stuff, you can check out the East Village. But really, for the best neighborhoods, you want to stay south of St. Best burger in the city. J. G. Mellons,
no question about it. Best ice cream, ample Hills. You can go to ample Hills Creamery down in the meat Packing District. Meat Packing is a cool area too, but it's more of a nightlife thing. Denny. I don't know if you want to bust out your funky moves, but there you have. Oh and the UH high Line Park and Chelsea Market. I'd go check out Chelsea Market, go for a walk in the Highline Parks. So there you have it, everybody, any of you who have some New
York trip coming up. I think I've given you some good by the way. Producer Mike, I was very excited, made his way to J G. Melons over the weekend. Ha Hi five producer Mike. Very well done. I'm not the coast. See what happens. Have a few laughs. Uh so, there you have it. Thank you, Denny. Oh And in terms of safety, and I've been talking about this whole New York thing for a while, but in terms of safety,
New York is a shockingly safe big city. Uh. If you're in Manhattan, which is one of the five boroughs, I would tell you that safety is is a is almost a non concern. That is how safe the city has become. I mean, obviously, don't walk around with a hundred dollar bills falling out of your pockets, acting like you're drunk or something. But you know, it's it's just not a problem. When I grew up, there was a big problem. You had to really think about safety. So
it is a dramatic change. It's very different than it was before. Next up, Cindy, see you get talking, give me talking about New York because I miss I'm missing white c right now. I'm I'm a little I'm a little homesick. From my hometown. But and miss Molly's up there, although we're getting her down here for good soon. Don't worry, Uh, Cindy, not sure if you not this time sense of information. F d A did a study with this great man. Finally results were better and less harmful to the human
body then chemo. Um, I don't know about this study about cancer treatment, but I will check it out, Cindy, thank you for passing it along. Uh Matthew, and he writes, Yo, buddy, congrats on stepping out onto your own. I lost your podcast for a while when you switch, but I've been listening again for a few months. Um. I held off telling you because you didn't want to put put you on tilt if you didn't know. But your Hill TV gig was out it on podcast several weeks ago. Oh
I know, trust me. I'm guessing during a commercial break, all the conversations you were having with a journalist and then your production staff was recorded. Maybe someone told you already, Oh yes they did. Anyway, you definitely need someone reviewing those podcasts because I I have heard some errors like that. Best of luck. Also, you need to preread those team by Speaks emails. You need to know what is coming.
You seem completely off balance when you read them. Well, Matthew, you know I'm doing it live on the air, Buddy, I don't know. I mean, if I pre read them, then I'm kind of pre selecting them. I thought some of the fun was that it's a little bit of a like, well, let's see what we got here, and I just go to it. Occasionally we get a little lost in the emails. But hey, your your opinion is valid. Uh So there you have it. There you have it. Um, let's see what else we have here? Yeah, where do
we have? Uh? Duke wrote the following, Hey, uh, he wrote, watch blazing Saddles, goofball? What is knocking around inside that oversized noggin? In fact, to be at least reasonably intelligent, watch every mel Brooks ever made, just keeping it real? Buck? Well, Duke, thank you. I will take you up on that. I will certainly check it out. Uh, Dave, next up here. Buck. I find it very amusing when you lend your voice
east to us your listeners. For instance, in recently speaking about linen suits not women's suits, and how they always appear wrinkled, you said, I'm just trying to pass along the wisdom of my thirty six years here. A lot of you are like Buck, I got twice your years. Why don't you learn yourself? Which would be a fair point. Being nearly sixty and owning a linen suit, I'd say you totally read my mind. Maybe you should rethink the whole caller aspect of the show. L O L. Thanks
for the informative and entertaining work you're doing. It is much appreciated. Sincerely, Dave. Listeners since the election and Black Rifle Coffee monthly service member and Proud Shields High T shirt wearer. Well, Dave, You're amazing man. Thank you, Dave. I'm gonna tell you this right now. I know you around Sacramento. Uh, And I just wanted to say then to to all of our Sacramento listeners. Hey, everybody out in California. Good to talk to you. Thank you for
joining the Hut. And Dave, you've you've like made my day and it's been a tough one. So you're note single handedly has improved my mood. So thank you very much for that. It means a lot. See see how easy this folks to just to actually just spread goodness and and good cheer sound a little bit like a Charles Dickens novel that who would like spread goodness and good cheer. But it's but it's true, a true thing. It's a real thing, all right. Next up, Erica, you
mentioned the homeless tents in California. We are visiting Washington this summer. Is there any place or anything like that we need to avoid in d C? Well, Erica, the parts of d C you are likely to visit as a tourist are quite safe. But d C, in fact is a more dangerous city per capita than New York City. And I have certainly noticed the homeless uh issue here is is a bit different as well. I mean there are there are, there are people in tents on the
streets in the main downtown part of the city. Not to the same degree anything like it, anything near near it. Um Oh, I cannot not speak English. Today radio host Buck radio host. Not nearly to the same degree as California. But it is, it is a thing here. But if you stay in the main areas, you know where where the White House is, Georgetown, the Washington Monument, uh Shaw, which is kind of a new trendy neighborhood, you're totally fine.
You'll be you'll be fine and DC. But look, in any city, you gotta keep you gotta keep basic safety in mind. Right, you can never completely let your guard down whatever city you're in. UM, but I don't think there's anywhere you have to specifically avoid Paul. Next here, he writes, Bucks, Seriously, you have not seen Blazing Saddles. Watch it twice in a row. You will be shocked through the first run. The second run you will laugh. I guarantee it. Well, Paul, I will give it a shot.
Thank you so very very much. UM, I will get to it. I don't know when. I don't have a TV right now. I'm living in a in an apartment with a mattress on the ground and that is my only furniture. I have a folding chair that I got from Walmart. I was in Walmart this past weekend. You know this may sound a little no dub Buck, but Walmart is an incredible place. It really is like the greatest American monument to commerce that you can visit. It's tremendous and you know, there's a lot of fresh food.
I mean this Walmart I went to in d C. I think it's a super Walmart. So maybe it's even if that's a thing. Thus it's a super Walmart. Um, I don't know, but it's a very It was an incredible place. I mean you could buy everything you need for your home. You could probably buy what you need to build a home, and then everything you need for inside the home, and then all the food you need in clothing you need for years and years to come, just based on Walmart, just what you get from Walmer.
So there you have it, um, And then we have Josh Buck. I'm so glad you mentioned Jordan Peterson and his BBC interview that was epic. I've been reading his book Twelve Rules for Life and have got a lot out of it. I think you need to have him and in his in his felture on the show together see if producer Mike can make it happen. I think you all would have an amazing and super informative discussion about the dangerous psychological game the left is playing all
the best shields high ps. I dig the intro for the dubstep roll call. Well, thank you, Josh. It's a great idea. Producer Mike is on it, and I'm glad that somebody else left you know, dubstep just puts a little pep in your step, as I like to say, so, I'm glad I finally got to make the big announcement today. But while I'm down in d C, I hope you all tune in this Wednesday to Hill Dot TV and until tomorrow on this radio show. My friends, you know
