No Borders, No Country

sense of the quorum? Well, I guess maybe they've lost their mind. 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 American, You're a great American. Again the Buck Sexton Show begins. No, Welcome to the buck Sexton Show. Everybody, honor and privilege. A pleasure as always to be here with you. We've

got some things to talk about today. Today is one of these days where we don't have some one all encompassing news story. You know, it's not all gosh testimony on Capitol Hill and I have to sit there for six hours and watch, you know, members of connors. I'm pretending to care about the law, but really I'm just doing this for the cameras. You know. There's gonna be more of that, by the way, when they get into

the final stages of the Muller Probe, trust me. But this is this is one of these days where I can look at what's going on in the new cycle and talk to you about whatever just comes to mind, which I think sometimes is our most interesting, our most fun days actually here on the show, and I want to dig deep into some things that certainly if grab my attention, I think we'll grab yours as well. Oh but if you want to call in, I love to

take some some calls today. Eight four folks. I know some of you're gonna be busy tomorrow with your you know, your barbecuing, you're grilling, your red, white and blue apparel wearing cocktail party, you know, whatever you got planned. Or the July is a great holiday, isn't it. I gotta love Fourth of July. Also, grilled meat is just the best kind of meat. It just is. You can talk to me about the smokiness and but I just taste better.

But since a lot of you, I'm sure tomorrow are gonna be doing that, you know, tonight's a good night for you to call in and tell me what your thoughts are about the subject matter of the day, or the things that are on your mind, whatever that may be. This role abolished ICE thing, I want to start with that. As I've been I came at this from the perspective of, well, hold on, this policy doesn't make any sense. This is

this is a nonsensical thing to say. And then I walked you through how there's the you know, the history of US customs enforcement before immigrations and customs enforcement were merged together, you know, United States custom Service, and how you need to have this to abolish ICE would mean you would not have anyone there to do vetting for people who are actual asylum seekers. So if you want to talk about being heartless and mean, there will be

none of that. You would have no one to work on these cases that come into the country or people say that you know, they've they've you know, their family has been separated, or anything else. It's just it doesn't work. It doesn't work. And then also interior enforcement because customs or rather border patrolled it isn't driving around the country, although they will go I think up to a hundred

miles in the U s interior. They won't drive around the country going into meat processing plants and other plays and try to do these roundups of illegal, illegal alien labor, so they have no interior force. It's just not But you know, I have to stop myself because it's really not about a policy. And that's why you've got Kirsten Gillibrand and a bunch of other Democrat politicians now repeating this refrain about how it's times. I think Corey Booker

has also said, you know, abolish ice. Time to abolish ice. I spoke earlier today to the Democrat would be governor of Maryland. You know, Maryland's kind of a funky state in that way. It is overwhelmingly blue, very blue, and very anti Trump, but it also has it really popular governor who's a Republican. Now, he's a moderate Republican. Some of you might refer to him uncharitably as a rhino, and I don't think that would be I don't think

he'd be far off with that one. But to be a rhino in Maryland is a is a tough act to pull off, I think. But this, uh, this challenger said, you know, no, we shouldn't abolishize. We need we need ice. So I say to myself, oh, look, some people are figuring this out, but it's not. It was never about

the policy. I need to stop thinking about what's happening from the perspective of legislation at law and and just look at this much more through a community organizer, a Lynskyite lens, and then it all starts to make sense.

Then you understand why they're chanting abolish ice, and then you know where this comes from when when they're uh and hat tip Peter Hassan at The Daily Caller for this that vandals at an abolish ice protest through a brick through the window of the Nebraska Republican Party's headquarters in Lincoln, Nebraska. So now you have an understanding for Okay, well this isn't really just they know they're not going to abolish ice, so why say it? What is the point?

But then I take this to what we discussed yesterday with Okazio Cortes and how she is part of this group. These democrats are the socialist rather of New York City that want to abolish prophet the You're never going to do that, so why say it? Oh, that's right, it is because it's about mobilization. This is why you have ICE protesters berating cops. For example, what do cops have to do with immigrations and customs enforce but local law

enforcement doesn't do the functions of ICE. In fact, what we see overwhelmingly is because of sanctuary city jurisdictions across the country, local police are largely prohibited from doing even the bare minimum of assisting in immigrations and customs enforcements. Bare minimum. They don't want to do it. So you have ICE pro You have these pro testers against ICE. They want to abolish ICE, and now they're getting angry at police. Here's what it sounded like in Philadelphia, play

third team. You wouldn't have you have you or you have your shape, you have you have your You said if we do at sent down, you would have rest, no right, but you still arrested. You have no shame, you have no work. That's why you're up. That's why you're not high school. That's why you're here. You can't that's the only way you give me any They didn't do anything anything. That's why they cops could have such

loans not to stay. Now for a woman to go up to police officers and say that they have just because their police officer. Remember, the cops are at a protest, usually to keep the protesters safe. Okay, they're there to protect the First Amendment rights of the protesters. I've seen it time and again in New York work. So they often lose sight of this though, and somehow they think the cops are the enemy. But that woman was saying to this police officer, you have no shame, you have

no worth. You didn't finish high school, that's why you're here. What does that have to do with abolishing ice and immigrations and customers forcement? Why why be verbally abusive to police officers who, by the way, even the most idiotic leftists would have to admit, if we didn't have cops, it would be mad Max, right, if we didn't have law enforcement on the streets, we would have big problems in this country. Immediately, I think, I think anybody who

has a you know, a functioning brain knows that. So why be so nasty to a police? Why take this tone? It wasn't just there also there were chances about how police are racist played twelve. I've heard that chap before. This is all a retread you've heard it as well, not just the Black Lives Matter protests, but before that at the very virulently anti cop protests that were a part of the Occupy Wall Street movement. Folks, these are all this is just all the community activists left coming

back together and trying to get energized and chance. This is a Lynsky one oh one. It's not about policy. It's such a stupid thing to say that could only be about saying it, not doing anything right. They literally just want to chant this because they know it's never gonna happen. But the chant becomes its own justification because people feel good and they feel fired up, and they want to go abolish ice, Abolish ice. What comes after that?

Why abolish ice? Wouldn't you want more people in immigrations and customs enforcements so they can process asylum claims. Wouldn't you want more people involved in this process so that it could be more orderly and efficient and therefore people with the right to come into this country would be able to or those who have an honest claim for asylum. But it's about you see there. They know that the whole game at the border has been overwhelming. The system

also straight out of the Olynsky playbook. Overwhelm the system, bring it down to its knees, find the scenes, find the weak points and attack and abuse them. Don't win the argument, don't win people over to your side, collapse the system, and then and then you'll have control. I know it sounds almost conspiratorial, but Rules for Radicals is one of the most important books I think any of

us could read. It's certainly in the top and for American politics today, it's in the top twent of your thirty.

If you remember, in a in Olynsky's writings, he said that once you have a people mobilized on one issue, and I'm paraphrasing, you have the mobilized on all issues, abolish ICE is just a chant to channel the rage of the left and the idea of being The more you get them fired up over this, and the more you get people out there and seeing protests, and the greater the demonization of immigrations and customs enforcement, but really of the Republican Party and the Trump administration that is

in charge of ICE, as it is an executive branch agency. The more they can do that, the more they can pull that off, the greater they think is the possibility that they will win seats and then have power. So it's not a policy argument, it's an emotion argument. It is a it is a fire up the base approach, but it is also scorched earth as a means of firing up the base because it does real damage to people's perceptions of immigrations and customs of federal law enforces.

The same people, the same activist groups in some cases who or just so upset about any criticism of senior FBI leadership, obviously involved in highly politicized decision making against Trump, against the Trump administration. Oh, you're undermining democracy, and you know those same people are now saying, oh, how you know this is iis terrible. Iis for losers, for bad people. They're they're criticizing the individuals who work for the agency.

By the way, it's also a tactic of border extremists, including groups like Larazza. They we'll go after people who work for the border patrol, will call them traitors, they'll call them evil, all kinds of things you see on this notion of an a Lynskyite collapsing of the system. One of them. Either there are two obvious ways that you can do it. There are two ways you can bring America down without military force, in fact, without firing a shot. At least two ways that I know of.

One collapse our financial system. The best way to do that is to create a debt time bomb, that is that eventually makes our currency workless. And if you look at the history of currency over the course of centuries a fiat currency, there is a hundred percent success rate with fiat currencies of being eventually worth nothing. Not something that you'll hear many people say, but it is true. Fiance currencies all go under at some point, just a question to when. So that's one way that the system

can collapse on itself. People will say, oh buck, how far out of it? I don't know, but they're playing the long game, folks. Another way is to so overwhelm our borders and the immigration system with new arrivals, constant arrivals, illegal crossings, drugs smuggling, human smuggling, illegal activity, that the American people no longer have faith and law enforce ins ability to have borders, and then everything from there just

begins to crumble. Well, you know what I'm gonna I'm gonna trust law enforcement when they can't actually tell me who's in the country and who's not. You're gonna pay your taxes knowing people are coming and going as they please without paying any taxes and facing any penalties. Are

you going to feel bound by the law? And this is really what it comes down to, when the law has been so decimated, when people have been able to run rough shower of the law and essentially make it irrelevant when it comes to our borders and our sovereignty. Are you going to want to hear from, you know, federal bureaucrats about how the pond in your backyard is a wetland and you're gonna get a forty dollar a

day fine for it. I don't think so. I mean, you don't want to hear that now, but you definitely don't want to hear it if if we become a near open border state. Open borders is the end of this country, if we ever get there. There are activist groups that are pushing for it, and they think that if they're able to seize power maybe one more time, if they're able to be in charge, they'll push us so far down the pathway that it will be irretrievable for us to actually be a rule of law society

with some hope of the incredible run we've had. We think it's gonna last forever. This prosperity, this unique political culture, this experiment that we have as a republic. We think it will just go forever. Remember a republic if you can keep it. These olynskey eye types, whether it's the border or any number of issues, they're trying really hard to make sure that we can't keep it. Something to remember as we go in to the fourth of July. Here eight four four to five, eight four four nuck.

If you would like to chat, I would love to chat with you. Give me a ring. We'll be right back. The Democrats message right now, which is oppose everything and do nothing. It's frankly gotten really sad that their party has no message, no leadership, no solutions, and they want to fighter president who's trying to lead and who's doing amazing things for our country. Uh, and things that are really hard to argue with. Yeah, they do have. The

Democrats have no message right now about anything. And I think they're gonna find out that quote Trump is hitler end quote is not inspiring to anybody who's not a little deranged. It's not gonna work, especially with the country that is doing as well as as this country is. And I'm wondering when they think this is going to change, when they think that there's going to be a a moment for the message to all of a sudden come through.

Oh it's July. Nothing happens in d C in August, and no one's really paying attention to the national political race in August either, So we got September October, two months really for them to make the case the American people. I just think it's not going to be a case

that they're able to make. And I also think that all of these, all of these incidents, and I'll talk about the latest ones of what I call politically motivated stalking, where you have members of the Trump administration who are followed around by people harassed, and Prue is the latest one. Although bru It's make him a little too easy for the left to pick him apart. I'm a bit frustrated with the guy is not helping himself with some of

his decision making. But it's we've we've reached a point here where there's obviously something really off about a lot of people in the left, there's obviously a real problem with the way that they're approaching politics discourse, trying to be respectful, trying to be people who have manners. I know that sounds like, oh, do you have manners? But no, really,

we got to be decent enough to each other. We can't have folks getting a costed every time they go out in public and the EPA administrator, you're gonna go off the EPA administrator. Really, we will talk about that proved situation, but I always feel like that's a that is an in kind donation the Republican Party in many ways when they're really nasty to Betsy Divorce, when they get up in Mitch McConnell's wife's face, and then when a lad and Chow is like, oh oh really you

want you want to mess with on of this? She was pretty awesome. I think it is a life goal find somebody who's got your back, like a Lane has mitches back. But it just shows us that they're not making a case. They're not making an argument based on what's gonna make your life better? So why would you show up and vote for them? Why would you care? If you're an independent and there are a lot of independents who listen to this show because you know, they

like smart stuff. If you're an independent, you think that this is a good idea. You're gonna hand power over these people. All they talk about us that everything should be free and Trump is Hitler. Well, everything isn't gonna be free, and free is often the most expensive thing of all in any country. Uh, and Trump is not Hitler. And people who say so, we're idiots. So I think we can defeat the d n C messaging machine pretty easily. He's holding the line for America. Buck Sexton is act.

It's a call for anarchy, and it's amazing that it has caught on and it has been spreading even abug um what we're thought to be mainstream democrats. I mean, it's insane. You don't have borders, you don't have a country, and when you're a welfare state like the US has become, it is just a giant sucking sound from all over the world. You can't control it. And it means anarchy. It means Mike makes right and then that ultimately leads to a totalitarian dictator coming in and uh rounding up

the military taking over. It's it's the way countries end and a new dictatorship begins. Louis Gohmert's worried about it, for sure. I think he's on the right track here abolishing borders. What it would actually lead to some pretty some pretty scary stuff, folks. Now, it's not gonna happen overnight, and they're not going to be open about the end state here, the end goal. But make no mistake about it. Every empire before ours, and yes America is an empire,

just is a benevolent one. But every empire is before ours has fallen. Every empire has crumbled. So if we want to be the exception, we gotta fight, and we gotta keep things. We have to well support the founding principles and stay within our charter. What is this country all about? What are we really trying to do? You don't have borders, We don't have a country. It's just

the truth. Trump says it all the time. He's right, says, straightforward statement of an absolute truth that everyone needs to understand. And we also need clarity on which side believes in it and which side doesn't. But I want to move for a second here to this this Pruitt situation, this guy. You know, I want to I want to like, I want to like prove it because I know he's doing

good things. I know he's doing good things at a policy level at the e p A. But he keeps getting hit on with all these different things of where he's you know, he's just looking a little bit like he's a little grasping, always trying to get a little extra on the side, always trying to line his pockets a bit. And but you know, at the policy level

ep A side, he's doing great stuff. I mean, the Obama era of regulations on the environment, we're just it was just all pushed by this crazy quasi religious belief on climate change, and it's just it's nonsense, right. It just slows down industry, it hurts us. Everybody wants clean air, everybody wants clean water. It's not about that. This is

other stuff. This is about government regulation and control of your day to day lives because of this narrative that the world is the world is literally coming to an end because of c O two in the air. It is when you just just step back from all the noise and all the politics, it's a crazy thing to believe. It is more rational to be worried about the prospect of a large asteroid hitting the Earth and killing all life in it. That actually has happened, right, that that

we could face again. We are not going to have to worry about c O two choking the planet, all right, it's just not that's that's not a rational belief. But they're basing policy now on that. So so prud is rolling back all kinds of things. The e P A, the abadministration did bad stuff, and that makes me want to defend the guy. But then he does some dumb things and he's you know, taken a little too cozy

with lobbyists and everything else. Then what you see is one of these instances that I call politically motivated stalking. That's what it is, politically motivated staw sing, where somebody finds a Trump administration official, goes up to that person and harasses them in public because they work for the Trump administration, which is the United States government, folks. I mean, I think that's getting lost in a lot of these discussions. This is not Trump's EP administrator. This is the e

P administrator of the United States. Right when you're talking about the disrespect shown to the White House press secretary, or disrespect shown to the attorney general. These are the these This is the government we have. You know, you wake up day in and day out with the government you have. This is who we've got. And you don't have to agree with people. But some respect for the office would be nice. If you can't manage some respect for the office, well then at least some basic human

decency would be that would be good. But you know, you had a woman who was this exactly. She went up to uh Scott Prue was at teaism. There's a place here in d C. I'm here in the swamp. So I'm all these swamp cases of the politically motivated stalking that come up. I'm like, oh that place. I walked past that place yesterday. Right, I'm here, I'm I'm among I'm among the crazies. And a woman was ranked. This is from the Washington Post. Wrangler two year old

into his seat waiting for her pancake. A thirty thirty three year old teacher. She saw the EP administrator um and somebody with this woman, This teacher named last named Mink. She saw the climate change skeptic turned environmental chief. As it says here in the Washington Post and decided to go across and and accost him. All right, and this is and then and then she you know, she videotaped this too, and this is how it went play clip one count. This is my son. He loves animals where

he wants your air water. Meanwhile, you're slashing sails for cars and trucks for the best racially played. You've been hanging out her names Mexican while her jerky stands hedn't deserve psibody. Who actually does to protect our environment? Somebody who believes in climate change and keep it seriously benefit all of us from her children. Um, he's all I would urge to resign before your scandals show ye urging

him twos. Now, I will say that she spelled that was an after action where she was taking it a pawn herself. Uh to tell everybody what she said to him, right, that was kind of her her version. It sounds like she was reasonably uh i'd I mean, she she wasn't overly aggressive. Pebba will say it that way. You know she's but it's annoying. It's just annoying. It's not a it's not a cool thing to do. It's not. I don't think it's a respectful thing to do. It really

bothers me. And it's a trend. You did not see this during the Obama years. You know, you didn't see it during the Obama years. After it was clear that Obama completely and utterly lied, straight up lied to the American people on if you like your health care plan, you can keep your health care plan. That was an intentional lie to fool people so that they would not oppose a legislative action that Obama was pushing for that

would bear his name. It was the worst kind of life for a politicians, the kind of lie that affects you and your day to day life. Nobody was tracking down the different Obama figures involved in that and harassing them. We don't do that. You know. There was this huge surge of of political activism with the Tea Party. I remember I really came into media at the height of the Tea Party. Um that was right what or right

around then. It was right after the mid terms when the Tea Party had swept into power and or had put in power. Tea Party back candidates, you know what I mean. Made it sound like the Tea Party one and some kind of a coup, like we are in charge. But but I can't even that. And I just remember there are all these huge rallies, all the stuff going on. But it wasn't about individual harassment, wasn't about being nasty

to people. Was it about tracking down uh, you know Valerie Jared or David axel Rod or you know Jay Carney or any of these people and being mean to them as a means of trying to express some kind of a political view. And I really do think that you saw that the difference between those who become politically active on the left and those who are politically active on the right. We just approached the things differently. We view this as a part of our duty of citizens.

And but there's always a restraint in our respect for our fellow Americans in our political discourse. It's just not mirrored on the other side. They just don't agree that they act like maniacs. This woman brings over to your daughter. You know, this is such a This is another thing that you see on the left you don't see on the right. Using kids as political props. This is a favorite tactic on the left, whether it's using kids at the border and their plight in order to ram through

what is effectively an open borders policy. Right, Oh, just let everybody into the interior of the United States. Don't worry about it. Oh, if you don't, if you don't agree with that, you must not like crying children, um, the kids at the Parkland shooting, using them to push

a gun control agenda. And now you just have people that will write and it's become pretty widely mocked by conservatives because you'll have writers for some big newspaper, you know, one of the big left wing media outlets, and they'll say, you know, my, my, my five year old daughter came up to me and said, what's going to happen to the constitutional precedent of Roe v. Wade when this this monster of jurisprudence in the mold of Scalia overturns it.

They'll share this publicly. It's like, you know, I don't think you're five year old said that. I don't think that that's I don't think that's the thing that happened. But you know, this woman brings her two year old with her, and it's not enough for her to just say, Hey, I'm an adult and I disagree with you. It's like you know, here's my two year old. My two year old likes clean air and clean water and animals. It's like, lady,

we all like clean air, clean water, and animals. But her mind has been poisoned against prude and against this administration. You notice she didn't come up that she has. She has no idea what she's talking about. And this is what you see with all these activists. They hear things, they hear phrases. They are being mobilized in a nsky i'd fashion by placards and memes and social media hashtags and phrases and rage on TV and the virtue signaling

that you see everywhere on social media. But she didn't she she didn't go off to him and say, well, you know, this is really up. This is up. This regulation let's say that deals with uh, you know, cold uh coal power plants. I'd really like you to reconsider this because I'm concerned about the damage that will do uh to the you know, to the environment in West Virginia for people in the air quality there. That's like

what a serious person would say. Whether you agree with or disagree that, but that's at least a discussion to be had, not you know, you're selling out for interest. You don't care about cleaner you don't care about clean water. It's just a caricature. And what you find increasingly is that one of the reasons the left is so angry and so mad is the only version of the right that they can intellectually tangle with is a caricature. It is a It is a giant wrestle main with straw men.

That's what we're up against now, or that's what they're up against. The borrow from Churchill. There are pyromaniacs in a field of straw men that they're not looking at the country as it is and as it's actually being handled by the Trump administration. They have this contorted, cartoonist view of what's going on, and that's why they'll go up and harass people and say things to people that are just you know, this woman looks she she didn't

call you know, she didn't curse you. I I will give her some credit for not being a complete moron. But you know, the guy can't have a You can't go to teas m in d c here and have a drink or have have tea whatever it was he was doing, got to be harassed there are so many ways. You can tweet at him, you can email him, you can write his people, you can write him emails. But now you see him, and you see everybody seems to think that their opinion is the one that gets to

determine national policy. Their feelings the ones that have to be heard by national level politicians. It does and work that way, It just doesn't. You can share your thoughts, but you cannot force your thoughts. And this showing up and berating people in public is a childish tantrum in the guise of political engagement. That's what it is. Eight four four eight to five, eight four four nine, buck much more show, Come and stay with me. Do you

consider yourself today proudly be an American? Oh? Boy, that's a question. No. No, not in the America we have right now. I'm not proud. Now are you proud to be an American? Definitely not. No, I'm not proud of America. I'm not proud of what weirds, what we've done. I think we need to stop thinking that we're the best nation on earth, because that's just egotistical and it's not accurate. Pretty great, though, we're closed, really comes down to it. I feel like it's more just like a tool to

be used to get people to join the army. And what what about America right now? Would you consider yourself not proud of I mean, I think the answer is pretty obvious. Um, It's like at the news there's a platfora of things that are going wrong, orphan border issues. So were you not proud? And Obama did it five years ago? I think that it's different now. A lot of the not proud of being an American comes from,

like the history of the US. Any places that come to mind that would be better better than the US. Probably some nice little socialist country in Europe had tip campus reform for that video. You know who wants to guess? I mean, if we had, if we had to just put it out there. How many of those college kids do you think are Democrats that are not proud of you? I'm gonna get the ones that said they're not proud of this country? Are not proud to be an American?

Our democrats. This is a big cultural divide you have this. You know, on the right, people are proud to be Americans. On the left, people are proud to think they're better than America and that they are the only ones who can fix it. It's very important psychological separation between right and left in this country. And and look, it's just true. Patriotism isn't cool on the left the same way it is in the right. You know, support for the military is not as widespread and universal on the left as

there's in the right. You find somebody who doesn't support our military or or has anti military sentiment, I'll show you somebody who, if they vote, votes Democrats. I have never in my life actually met a conservative who was like, yeah, I don't support the military. Right think the military is not And never I've met plenty of Democrats who think that we're you know, uh, we're al Qaeda's air force in Syria and we're doing all kinds of terrible stuff

here and there, and you actually al Qaida's effort. I think that might have been a rand pau comment now that I think about it, that was in a specific policy context. Strike that from my barrage of commentary there. For a second point I'm making is that the left is predisposed to be much more critical of this country and also predisposed to view, uh, presupposed to view what's going on here as a function. You know, do you love America? Are you proud of this country? I mean

fourth julyes tomorrow? You and I say yes. That didn't change when Obama was president. I did not love this country. I did not think this was amazing. I didn't cease to feel incredibly lucky to be an American because Obama was president. I thought that I wasn't a very good president. But it's temporary and we got through it, and you know, we're all gonna be fine. On the left though, now it's they it's not just that they don't like Trump. They don't like America because of Trump. And this is

a widespread sentiment. You have way more people on the right who are proud of proud to be American than you have on the left. And it is indicative of much larger ideological and culture role trends, ones that we should not just pass over and ignore. Um. You know, why is that the case? What has to do with the fundamental views of right and left? About our views in this Our views are role in society or role in America? The relationship between subject or citizen and state.

This is the Buck Sexton Show. Analyst No Welcome back to the Bucks Exton Show, July fourth. Eve went all through the house, not a creature of stirring, not even a mouse until you lit off that m A D that you've been saving for this time, and all of a sudden, everybody sterned because those things are loud.

Be careful, folks, Safety first, fireworks you producer, Mike. I've never really been one for fireworks, I gotta tell you, not even just the uh, the fireworks displays that you go out and see places people you know, Look, you got kids, It's fine. You gotta do the oozing the odds with the kids there because it's exciting and the

wonder of youth and everything. I get it right. But I got friends who used to be like, do you do my gosh, like a guy like like ten m eighties and you put them together and it's like a stick and a half of dynamite or whatever. And I'm like, I mean, like ten sticks of dynamite and I'm gonna take him and I'm gonna like put him in the trunk in my car and just like light them and see what happens. I'm like, I think that's a bad idea, Like fireworks and poor decision making is something you really

want to avoid. I think we can agree all that. I agree with that. Yeah, have you if you ever? I mean, I did see somebody once. I'm not gonna get it to wear decide to use a a what's the thing where like it? It kind of shoots as I think it's not a sparkler, It's like it shoots out Roman candle. I saw. Yeah, I saw somebody with a Roman candle shoot one way too close to one of his buddies. And that was not good. It's not good, is, by the way, what I have. No, I'm guessing d

C because everything. The only thing that's allowed here is communism. Every everything is banned in d C. But like you're a Pennsylvania guys, pennsyl. I think Pennsylvania is one of those states where New Yorkers will drive to it like, oh my gosh, they sell so many fireworks. You're right, you're allowed by the Pennsylvania I believe. So. Yeah, uh yes, I've seen the five fireworks here at Billboards when I'm driving that because I think in New York it's not

even I don't think you can do it. I don't think you do it, you know, the close thing to get too fireworks? Remember those little snap things used to throwing your kid snap things like you know you throw those What was that all about? I used to I used to love those things, man, run around throw them.

I think they got banned from my school. They also been slap bracelets, which was a period of time time when every like adolescent guy that I you know, adolescent male I knew, was like, I'm gonna wear a I'm gonna wear a neon pink slap bracelet. We didn't really think much about maybe this is a sharpened metal thing that you should be careful with, because you know, they started breaking. Do people even know? What? Do you remember

slap bracelets? It was a phenomenon for a while. It's a piece of metal that they would paint and you would slap it over your wrists. You know I'm talking about, And don't I generally stayed away the things that were neon though. Yeah, I'm just saying it, you know, you know, hey, hey, alright, style icon quinn. That's that's enough out of you anyway. Yeah, I'm just thinking of like the funky oh you remember Reebok pumps. I'm really getting into the nostalgia. Now, did

you answer me honestly here? Did you believe the Reebok pumps when you pump them up would help you jump a little higher? Um? Because the commercials made it seem like they would. Yeah, I kind of I was. I tried to convince myself that there was some way that it was like air cushing for your foot would help. No. False, I still had zero ups, buck could not jump. I did play basketball for a while. All right side, let's

get us thank you Mike for the fireworks expertise. You've no no fireworks mishaps for you to share with us, right like you've never you've never been that kid that blew up his garage trying to build a homemade fireworks I'm assuming no, no. But I did like four the July, and I did like fireworks because usually, yeah, that's accompanied by burgers and steaks. And of course you love Fourth of July because you work on this show and you

love America. Of course this is That's the only I mean, when we get resumes, they basically better say at the top, like I love America or else. There's no no chance. I didn't even know my resume was us an American flag. That's all I sentence, That's all you needed. Obviously worked there, alright, So let's get into the latest tier on the Trump administration doing something else. It's gonna upset people who are

worried about the erasing of the Obama legacy. H And but this also ties into the judicial nominee situation and what's gonna happen there, And as a a lot of a lot of stuff here, A lot of stuff here. So as some of you, well, I guess all of you who listen to the show, no, I think that affirmative action as it is currently enacted. I mean, affirmative action as it stands today is constitutionally, ethically and logically indefensible. Indefensible.

I mean, I know how they defend it. They'll say, oh, but it's about it's about diversity, you know, diversity, and when you know, when there's there's more diversity, and that's all. It's just like they repeat the same word. That's it. You say, well, what does that even mean? Diversity of what? What's the proper amount of diversity? What what's going on here? And and over time, if you look at decisions, because remember this and and don't let them get away with this.

Affirmative action is is not about from uh predominantly anymore. It's not about making up for the legacy of slavery. It's not about uh, you know, kind of an emergency, short term legislative action to help African Americans in this country after centuries of discrimination, actual legal discrimination, right, I mean, and and the ownership of human beings is property. That was the initial But affirmative action now is Look, I'm

gonna I'll tell you some stories. Affirmative action is people getting into Stanford who have blonde hair and blue eyes and claimed to be from Polynesia based on like some

great aunt somewhere or something. You know. A case that I know about affirmative action now is a friend of mine applying to Harvard claiming that she was in fact African American and being told that she was not because she was born in Egypt and while Egypt is Africa and there or she had adopted America, she had become American. But you know, she claimed this uh hyphenated nationality of being actually African and then American. They did not buy that.

That that did not flo I mean, you look at all these different ways the system is being abused now and people are trying to game the system, and that's what this is now. People are gaming the system left and right. And you know, no whatever comes up with an explanation for me of why is just just putting

this ound there like on my freshman floor. And I can only speak from my own experience in college with what I saw, But you know, we had, uh, we we had students from all kinds of different backgrounds, but there was clearly an effort underway to even just bring in more international students, like that's going to make our school a better place. And I kind of felt like, and when I mean bringing more to the national students, I mean that's a leg up in the admissions process.

If you apply from a country what they don't have somebody, if you happen to be, you know, the the one applicant from Eritrea, you're probably getting in. And I sit down and I'm like, I mean, look at least I guess it's a different background. But do we really want to a lot of America I'm talking about selective institutions, selective universities, they really want to do that? Why is don't we want to have the most Americans we can

graduating from American schools. I will also tell you this doesn't get much attention, but foreign nationals getting into UH the top programs at places like Harvard and M I. T and and then going back to places like China is a national security concern. Okay, we have the best universities in the world, and we are training our competition. In many cases, you know, these schools overwhelmingly disregard any notion of patriotism or dare I say nationalism in their

admissions processes. I think that's a problem. And now bringing back into the affirmative action discussion, UH affirmative action now applies to and this is from the admissions product. Like I I've I will tell you I had it out once with the admissions director of a school because it wasn't about me, but on a on a personal note, somebody they did not take. That was it was just an outrage that they didn't take somebody. And I actually got the admissions director of a very selective and and

we just had it out on the phone. I wish to this day have been fun if I could have recorded the conversation. But the buck went wild, and but I had friends on the admissions committees of UH at least a couple of friends of the missions committee of a major university and Ivy League university. And also so I speak of what I know on this all right, and and they all play these games. If that's not

how and we have no breath. They keep the the inner workings of these admissions committees like it's a black box that no one's allowed to peek into. And I would note that you gotta remember, member that for a lot of professions, a lot of different industries, it's really just a credentialing program. It's all about getting in folks.

What you do there, unfortunately doesn't really matter. That's why you get all these people that go to Brown that don't get grades, that come out and think that their geniuses because I went to an Ivy League school and you're like, well, it's really full of a bunch of rich hippies who don't do anything for four years. I'm gonna get yelled at for that one, I know, but

it's true. It's true. The two schools. I like to make fun of a Brown and Cornell just because I know a lot of people that want to both and they deserve to be made fun of UH. So, you know. But the way the system breaks down is that this is now, as Scalia put it, it's turned into a racial spoil system that some their favorite groups put aside

for just for the time being. Although it's a discussion on its own, a firm of action for UH, for black Americans, right, put that aside from them because it extends to Native Americans, it extends to Hispanics and Latinos. It is against Asians. And that's It's not that the Trump administration is going to be tearing down affirmative action.

It's that a bunch of Asians who have come together who are like, hey, why are we being discriminated against in these schools just because you have some notion of diversity that we don't fit into. It's still discrimination, It's not okay. So a bunch of high achieving Asians are the ones who are actually going to tear down the edifice of affirmative action in this country, I think in schools.

But this is important has implications for government hiring, government contracting as well, and it will be yet another instance of the Left losing the source of of political power and patronage. A lot of people really like affirmative action. They support Democrats because of a firm of action I have even mentioned. I got all fired up about this.

What the the the news tie in here is that the Obama administration laid out these guidelines, laid out these guidelines for more or less how to get away with doing racial balancing using quotas without actually using quotas, because quotas are not allowed. That has been the Screme Court said, you can have quotas. You can't say we're taking ten of our class will be black, of our class will be Asian, etcetera, etcetera. You can't do that. But if you look at the schools year in, year out, they

have basically the same number of people these different backgrounds. Oh, isn't that curious? Yeah, that's quite a lucky we have place like Harvard has twenty or thirty thousand applicant between twenty and thirty thousand applications year, I forget the exact number. Now, it's kind of strange that they have basically, within within a percentage point or two, the same number of Black students, the same number of Latino students year in and year out.

That's just because the applicant pool is or or maybe are they engaged in some dishonest stealth quota. Ah, that's what they're doing. So the Obama administration put out this, these guidelines, under these these Affirmative Action policy document, guidelines that told colleges and universities how to use race and emissions processes and essentially not run a foul of the law. But Jeff Sessions, my main man, I lacked but very much.

He he's out there and he cited improper rulemaking. He has said about this quote, the American people deserve to have their voices heard and a government that is accountable to them. When issuing regulations, Federal agencies must abide by constitutional principles and follow the rules set forth by Congress

and the President. In previous administrations, however, agencies often tried to impose new rules on the American people without any public notice or comment period, simply by sending a letter or posting a guidance document on a website. That's wrong and it's not good government. So this but this is another way of getting on how this this There's a lot at the heart of what's going on in from an action right now, which is that race is not a major factor in admissions decisions. It is a huge

factor in admissions decisions at these schools. And because of these constructs, the left is created on white privilege and you know, his systemic racism, historic racism, all that stuff. White people have not been able to make an argument without being told, oh, you're just racist and you want white privilege, you know. But Asian Americans are the ones

that the left just has no answer for this. Why is it fair under if you're not engaged in racial quotas, and this is at the heart of the matter, why is it fair for a you know, a son of Filipino immigrants applying to Yale University to have much better grades and s A T s Than the son of you know, let's say, uh, Honduran immigrants to the United States, and the Honduran immigrant gets in and the and the Filipino immigrant does not, or you know, the son of

Philippino ormants does not. Why is that fair? What is the what is the justification for that? The answers, there is no real justification. The answer is the left likes things. The left feels like there's some groups that are aggrieved, that are oppressed, and they make those distinctions and they make those decisions, and they like that power, and they don't want to give it up. Trump administration might start to chip away at this even more and make them

give it up. I'll get it a little more that I find that. I think it's really important by the way Supreme Court pick could play into this as well, which would also be I think great affirmative action should be illegal, gone done, It had its day, It's over with. In fact, Sander Day O'Connor and one of her Supreme Court opinions, wrote that basically around now, this is really not something we should continue to have. Well, we're there, and I say time's up. We'll be right back. You

Yeah, I've been wondering what's going on with you, and I haven't heard anything. I only get two hours of you, and I'm pulling

it in. I'm in Pittsburgh and I'm pulling this station in from West Virginia, and well, you gotta listen to the Freedom Hut podcast. That's where commy bear has been hanging out the freedom of Glemma. Judy can afford the internet, and I mean she doesn't have a computer right now, maybe some day down the road, who knows. Right now? Would you have a cell phone though? Right have an Obama boone?

not much. You can download the podcast that way, Judy. But we're glad you can join us whenever you can. And thank you for calling into freedom and happy fourth of July and shield our brother Kenny up in Boston. What's up, brother, Kenny? My hip, my shield is held in a lofty position. Anyway, Listen, what I think about what we were talking about earlier is I think the left is an engaged in a sort of attrition warfare. So they're wearing down of the wills and they're causing

increased convolution. If you noticed, everything is just hot to comprehend what's going on. And of course the lack of ability and that fuels their base and it detracts from the will of Trump supporters, right and so, but what I really wanted to say is if the open borders who results in an inevitable ultimate collapse of the country, which I do kind of feel that way myself. What do all these politicians and media who were clearly pushing it, what did they get out of it? They did? They

get like a golden parachute escape. But they pot us some hierarchy of government that happens in its wake. Right do they have Do they have special keys to the Suros bunker when America gets overrun and destroyed? No? I I uh. I think that they're just thinking about this very short term. And in the short term, open borders means Democrat votes and Democrat power, and that's all. And also the enlarging of the of the state that comes

along with it, which is something they always want. Right, If you have more people that are more dependent on the state, you need a bigger state to administer to them. Who is the party of the state and for the state, the Democrats. So that's that's how they view it, uh. And also I think there's a they don't view this rationally.

It's it's very emotional for them, Kenny, And they've really convinced themselves at the poem of the Statue of liberty, give me your poor, your non English speaking, you're non vetted, and whoever shows up, that's that's the way they should be. And that's obviously a approximation of how they think about it and what the poem says. But that's where we are.

Kenny and Boston Shield saw my friend more Coming. The Thread is a new hit podcast from Azzi Media that explores history surprising connections in order to discover how one thing leads to another, like how John Lennon's murder connects all the way back to communist leader Vladimir Lenin. Get it on iHeart Radio or wherever you listen. He's back with you now. Because when it comes to the fight

for truth, the fuck never stops. So the Democrats are still really upset about the fact that Trump is going to get a Supreme Court nominee. Um, oh wait, can we can we play clip seven please? Here's what Huckaby Sanders said. Trump is is looking for for us, go

to pick place seven. Look, the main thing the president is looking or are people that fit the qualifications that you would want in a Supreme Court justice, tremendous intellect, someone who will stick to upholding the Constitution, and somebody who has great judicial temperament. Those are the big things

the president is looking for in a candidate. Yeah, but you see that the thing that the Democrats are looking for somebody who will give them what they want, or at least give them the possibility of getting what they want on the most major issues, which is what they have with Kennedy, right. Somebody who is not going to overturn some of the major uh cultural and political shifts that occurred as a result of Supreme Court decisions that

in some cases are terrible. By the way, we're gonna have David French, who's lawyer, senior writer National Views, gonna join us in the third hour tonight talk a little bit about what he thinks is going on here and what we can expect from the anti conservative judge opposition out there. But you know, they're just gonna say a lot of really terrible stuff and no one's gonna be held to account for it. And it's all about our team versus their team in their eyes, that's it. There's

there's no deference to the Constitution here. It's not about what's best for the country and rule of law in with respect to a system of a system of judicial interpretation. That is not about outcomes, but about the law. They don't want that. They want a super legislature, legislature with at least five votes on it out of nine to give the left what they want things they would never get. Does anyone really think they would have ever gotten abortion?

All nine months of a pregnancy in all fifty states in the country. Not never right and never would have happened. There was never a time when Congress would have pushed pushed that there. It's just not gonna happen. Wouldn't have happened. And now here we are it's been the law of the land for decades. Uh. At a stain on the on the moral and ethical conscience or a standard world ethical history of this country, they're gonna say stuff like this. Uh this person over at MSNBC about some of the

different justices. Uh. Here, here's what qualifies for political analysis that ms play ten. His list is all people who we we have an understanding are in opposition to Row. You know. Amy Barnett is a went to Notre Dame. She is very Catholics. At a famous moment with a former centaer Al Franken during her hearing is about how she spoke essentially to hate group without really understanding the

full um context. There just slander people right, just say say whatever you gotta say to impugne their character, to damage them in public, uh, to find a way to create a perception that there unethical bad people. Whatever they have to say to that end, the will do. And it is deeply troubling to see this going on. It is deeply troubling, and it's gonna get as we know it's it's gonna get much uglier and much much worse. Um. But there's a fundamental principle here, and I want to

make sure we establish it. There's something that really does matter about all the Supreme Court stuff, and that is that the Supreme Court is not supposed to be a place where judges sit there and decide what is best for the country. This is where you have the divide in liberal and conservative jurisprunce. It's not about I like this thing. I'm in a position to make this thing happen through the law by changing the law. As a Supreme Court judge, it should be about what is true

and what is lawful. Um, here's what dirsh. The dirsh. We haven't had the dirsh on in a while. I kind of want to have the Dirsh on a podcast where I can just talk to him about like the life of Dirsh, you know what I mean. I feel like that would be a good Like, Hey, so, what was really what was it really like on O J's defense team back in the day? You know? How is how was that whole thing going on? A lot of questions I gotta ask, But here's what you said about

judicial activism. The president makes these kinds of decisions based on his personal interaction with the individuals more than recommendations. Obviously he's going to take into account the recommendations as well. I hope he's looking for a libertarian conservative, a true conservative who elevates the rights of individual over the power of government. A true conservative also respects precedent, doesn't come to the court with an agenda with a list of

issues that he wants to see change. A true conservative is not a judicial activist. So I think he can broaden his base, help unite the country if he picks a true conservative who really believes in liberty and who believes in precedent. That's what true conserv itism is. On the bench, well, I think that Trump's nominees are gonna fit that just five. I think that the people that he's thinking about fall into those categories. And you know, I'm I am hopeful that you know, this is here

we are. We're eighteen months into the Trump presidency, and already there are people I know who were cautious about this, maybe cautiously optimistic, or maybe just weren't sold, and they're seeing what is happening here and they're saying, wow, never Trump was a mistake for some of them. I'm not saying all of them feel that way, but I'm gonna feel that way, like maybe I shouldn't have written this off because this will stay with us for a very long time and as I've as I've been saying to you,

it has tremendous implications for the future. So look, I don't want to get, you know, too deep into the you know, oh what the judge is and this and that the other thing, because we're gonna this is gonna be the main event, the main show, folks, once it gets into the Senate and you got all these senators and you have you know, Chuck Schumer and all the rest of them trying to you know, I gotta say Lahy.

I really I talked about gurgling with Gurgen, but actually Lay so you know, if Grgen is kind of up here, Lay is kind of down. I can't understand the guy city u S. Senator Pat Lay Vermont. He's he's apparently. I think he does pretty well actually in terms of approval ratings. I'm like, what is this guy talking about? I don't know. I mean, I feel like being able to communicate effectively should be a necessary prerequisite to be in the Senate. But he's been there a long time,

and he has a very prominent, prominent dome. I mean, his he embraces you know, he's he's like me. He's got a seriously large cranium and he just goes with it. You know, he's not trying to do a comb over anything else. Lay owns the Mr clean thing up top, and you know what, some respect for that I got. I gotta go with it. So the judicial thing is going to turn into a lot of a lot of athletes,

a lot of back and forthes. You know, we'll follow that more closely, but in the meantime, it's just they're gonna try to make an issue of particularly if it's Amy Barrett. They're gonna make an issue of her Catholicism in a way that we'll be talking about I think for years to come. Uh. There, there's gonna be big, big problems there. Eight four four nine to eight to five eight four Buck, Oh my gosh, we have so much more to discuss, my friends, much more show on

the way, and don't forget. You can download the Freedom Hunt podcast on iTunes, are on Stitcher. Just go to the Buck Sexton show. It is in that same feed, folks, it is in that same feed. And oh wait, here, wait a couple of things before I before I go to the next one. I was looking for these for a moment. I was verbally stalling to find this. So here's here's what Trump was saying about that upcoming fight playing. And I think, yes, I think we will go very quickly.

I actually believe that a lot of people think it's going to be a very Look, it's probably going to be vicious because the other side all they could do is obstruct and resist. You know, the whole thing is resist. But and maybe someday we'll be able to get along with the other side. I don't know, But right now it's only resists. That's all they want to do is stop things from happening. So they're going to try very hard. But I think it's going to go actually very quickly.

If I picked the right person, they're gonna be vicious. I don't think it's gonna go quickly. I like the President's optimism on this, but it is going to be very, very ugly. And I want to just put this out there, and maybe this is one of these things where we should mark this for the show going forward so we have it. Imagine what it feels like if Republicans maintain control.

I don't think they're gonna game seats in the House, but imagine what it's like if they maintain control of the House and the Senate two years into the Trump presidency and you get a constitutional conservative on the Supreme Court, a second one all the Supreme Court courtesy of President Donald J. Trump in year all of done in year by a year two of the presidency. What are liberals

gonna tell themselves? Then? You know, when, when do you think this iceberg starts to melt of liberal delusion when they have to confront their misconceptions about this country, about themselves, about the popularity of their beliefs and about why people voted for Trump in the first place. I don't know if we're ever going to get there. I don't know, if you know, Mike says no. Mike thinks that they're

just is never gonna change. It's never gonna change. Uh, you might be right, man, you know, I think that they there's been a radicalization of the liberal mind that only only through continuous law us is only until we are in fact sick of winning, tired of winning, will that change. And we're aways from that. We've still got a lot of things to accomplish, a lot of things to do. All right now, I really will give you

some a second to catch your breath. Eight four four I guess let me catch my breath eight four four to five eight fo buck Uh, David French come up in the next hour. Much more show on the way, stay with me team. We're not going to be threatened by the Democrats. I mean, look, they they're the ones that have all this blood on their hands. They're the ones who have completely destroyed the FBI and d o J. How did they do that? They did that by digging

up dirt. The Clinton campaign dug up dirt, put it into a dossier, fed it into the FBI, and the FBI used our counterintelligence capabilities against a political campaign. Is there really any dispute left about that? You know? That seems to be just a stayed in a fact at this point. But Devin Nounez has become something of a boogeyman on the left. They hate new Nets because he's been out there fighting the fight, the good fight on this issue. And you'll notice there's been a bit of

a silence on this that. Yeah, that the Cohen flip issue has come operationally because Cohen gave his interview two. Uh what was George Stephanopolis Mike. We don't have any of that audio, handy, do we this the Cohen speaking? I don't know if it was just written interview or I read the transcript of it. Was it written or was it a video interview with Stephanopolis and Cohen? You know what I'm talking about it earlier in the week. I do. Yeah, they do not have a video of it.

It was to sit down. I think that was the agreement, just to okay, yeah, so because I remember I read what was said. So you know, everyone's all jumped on this oh, Cohen's gonna flip. And Cohen said stuff like, it's not a witch haunt. I'm not gonna put Trump ahead of my family. Which when you are in the crosshairs of a federal prosecutorial well, I was gonna say, which hunt overreach? You say whatever you gotta say to try to save yourself. Really, that that's what ends up happening, folks.

You know, it's kind of like an interrogation. Everybody breaks, just a question when and how when the Feds come after you. You know you're eventually gonna start singing the tune they want you to sing. I mean, maybe you won't say your guilty stuff you didn't do. But if if it's gonna help you to say I think the Feds are doing a great job here, you know, if it's going into your possible plea bargain, then yeah, of course. But everyone's saying Cohen's gonna flip. He's gonna flip, I say, flip.

The problem he's gonna have is he has nothing to flip with. Yeah, they want him to flip on Trump, that's very obvious. But what's he gonna say? There was Russia collusion that didn't happen. He can't do that. But if he lies, then he loses any any deal. So he can't make stuff up. Even if he says what they want him to say, you have to wonder what's that even gonna be. We're gonna get back to the Stormy Daniels payoff issue, and you know CNN was covering

that almost like the lost plane. I mean it was on twenty four seven, day in, day out. But known is the enemy of truth, so they have no problem with these things. Uh. Mike was just telling me before that they had the woman who was harassing Prude on and she's now a hero. This is what ends up happening. All you have to do is find somebody affiliated with Trump and do a Facebook video of yourself talking about how you curse them out or yelled at them, and

you're you're like a celebrity. You know, you need to get an agent to negotiate your book deal. I find it very I find it very distasteful, I must say. But yeah, I mean they're going after Cohen. I saw. I didn't I didn't mentioned earlier in the show, you know, because I feel like this is a story that gets more attention that or it's something it gets more attention than it deserves. It's the way people always take this.

Every step in the Muller Probe is treated like, oh, we're right, you know any day now that that other shoe has been waiting to drop four months and months. I just want you all to remember when the day comes to the Molder probe finally is you know, they released their report and the whole thing happens. By the way, I'm gonna talk about the Senate Intel report on Russia at a few moments get the Senate Intel Committee says, oh, we're the Russia conclusions from the Intel community. I'll get

into this again. Not something that people are making a bigger deal out of it than it is. But I want you to remember who along this whole process was telling you this isn't what they say it is. It's not going to result in some soft coup against the Trump administration. They're trying it. It's not it's not gonna happen. There's no they're there. And remember who has been running around hair on fire about how Trump was you know, Trump as a trader and worked with Russia. Yeah, like

it's it's been discouraging and I have. I have, really, this is the first time in my professional career in media, I have just lost respect for the judgment of people over this one issue. People have gone off the rails with this Russia Trump collusion stuff in a way that I never could have imagined. And I just refused to believe that it's really about belief in some international conspiracy with Trump and other people to try and throw the election.

I think it's just a much deeper issue for people. They take Trump's They've taken Trump's election personally. They think it's a repudiation of what they think about themselves, right that now someone is challenging their beliefs in a way that has rattled them, and they're hoping for some panacea. And the panacea in this case would be that Trump is really a Kremlin candidate, that he was run by

putting all this other stuff. M It just must be exhausting to keep that hope alive so long in spite of all the facts and everything that we've seen so far. It's got to be tiring after a while. But I feel like, you know, they are going to see it through to the end. I will say that they're gonna stay on this thing, and there's I do not have much faith that there will be any real increase in insanity from the anti Trump left on this Russia stuff.

But you know, I feel a guy like Cohen, they're gonna they're gonna get him on something, because it's not that hard to get people. They're gonna find some speak agetting people. Didn't they just Mike, did they just get the what is it? An Rwan? That guy the house work for Debbie Wasserman Schultz, the I T guy he pled to a loan fraud thing, pleaded to a loan fraud thing. I feel like there's more going on. I know there's been a lot of reporting daily College and

reporting on that. I gotta dig into a little bit more. Feels like they're just making that go away. This guy who was into some shady stuff and he's just doing a loan fraud charge. M okay, But the Senate Intel Committee report on Russia talk about that for a few minutes coming up. And then we got David French joining on all things Supreme Court. He's gonna help me own the lips to code in the news and disseminating information with actionable intelligence. Make no mistake American. You're a great

American again. This is the Buck Sexton Show. I've got very important news to tell all of you stuff. It's really gonna blow your mind. Alec Baldwin and Martin Sheen are going on a twenty four hour hunger strike for immigrants. Oh no, how will they ever make it through twenty four hours? They're so dedicated to immigrants. This is the thing that I saw today. It's a real thing that people are talking about actually going to twenty four hour

hunger strike. They're not actually fit into my bathing suits from last summer anyway. Goals, hashtag goals, hashtag dad bod fight. Uh, you know the big thing today? And I saw this on Fox. It's getting a lot of attention to People are like, oh gosh, what does this all mean. Here's the quick and dirty. The Senate Intel Senate Intel Community Committee has been looking at the findings of the intel community in the presidential election that quote, do you they

wanted to help Donald Trump? The intelligence community findings were quote accurate and on point, according to an unclassified report and accompanying statement by the Senate Select Committee Intelligence released Tuesday. So they are saying sure enough that yeah, Russia wanted to help Russia wanted to help Trump in the election.

This is from the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence. They released this and they go into some stuff about the disputes between FBI, CIA, and n s A. By the way, I used to be a part of these disputes on different NIL products. I've been in the room. I've fought it out with people from different That stuff can get heated, by the way, you can imagine when some bureaucrat feels like the stakes are the national security interests of the

United States, you can get very passionate. You can get very sanctimonious too, in some of these inter agency intelligence assessment meetings. I remember things getting real heated on some Irrock related stuff back in the days. You can imagine, so, uh, looking at this now, people are gonna say, oh, gosh, Russia wanted to help Trump. Here's the thing Russia was trying to say chaos. Russia was doing what it has

been doing for decades. This you can either make it sound like a really big deal, or you can put it in the proper context, which is this is a continuation of rough Russian provocations against the US and a lot of other countries, by the way, stretching back for decades, This is a way that they pursue what they view as their foreign pe interests by trying to so chaos in the electoral processes of other countries, and chaos made me too strong a word, just to try to gum

up the works a little bit and to push those candidates that they feel like, maybe you're more aligned with their interests in some ways on some matters, to downplay or uh engage in propaganda against candidates they don't like. I mean, but they've been doing this forever. I wish they would teach kids in school about what the Soviet Union was really up to and it's ties to the Communist Party USA and all of the different Soviet aigents

in this country. Instead you get some five line paragraph about, you know, McCarthy was really bad and he did bad things and he lied about people. It's like, no, McCarthy was actually mostly right, Alger Hiss was a spy, etcetera, etcetera. You go down the line, you see that there were deep and very serious, very senior penetrations in the United States governed by the Communists, and there are a lot of Americans who were Communist fellow travelers and working with

the Communist Party. That was a real thing and a very serious national security threat to us. But that's not taught. People don't know about it, and so they see this Russian meddling and they say, oh, my gosh, they're creating Facebook accounts that's say mean things about Hillary among hundreds

of millions of Facebook accounts out there. You know, when you start to look at the money that was spent on this, and you look at the Facebook puppets and what what they were, what Russia was actually up to. To call this a drop in the bucket is an overstatement. It was a drop in the ocean. And the notion that this could have moved the electro wom with the other is just fantasy. But also, now you have you can take it beyond that into the what are we what are we really supposed to do about it? How

is this really supposed to get dealt with? I asked James Clapper, the former Director of National Intelligence, you know, what do you think? And he's like, well, we should put out a strong statement. Oh okay, we put out a strong statement about Russia, and then we've handled the problem. I don't think that's gonna cut it. I don't think that's gonna do it. How do we stop Russian middling going forward? No one has any idea. You're gonna have

more transparency and Facebook accounts. Guess what, Russia will just get more sophisticated about how they set up those Facebook accounts. And if nothing else, one of the best things that they've gotten out of this whole process is the magnification of their propaganda efforts in the minds of a lot of Americans because of the narrative that Hillary would have won if it weren't for the Russians, which is just again crazy, But this is what they're saying. So this

is the Senate panel. Okay, they're saying that they think the Russia wanted to help Trump. So what Russia wanted to help Trump? Every every country's government, by the way, has a favorite in most of our elections, and usually for adversaries. Guess what, it's the Democrat that they want to win. So we just deal with that. We just recognize that and do our best to work within that reality. So,

you know, I just this is this report today. They released it before Trump's gonna go meet with with Putin. In a few weeks, and you know they want this stuff out there. This is it doesn't really change anything, doesn't really move the football downfield. You know what, will our friend David French who is joining us here momentarily talk a bit about Spreme Court nominees and then we'll get into some other interesting stuff including roll call, your

thoughts and so much more. UH, teams, stay with me. Environment is very fast paced.

That's m y g v N dot com. Are you going to ask your nominees beforehand how they might vote on versus ways? Well, that's a big one, and probably not. They're all saying, don't do that, you don't do that, you shouldn't do that. But I'm putting conservative people on. On the campaign trail,

you said you would leave it to the states. Well, maybe someday it will be to the states. You never know how that's going to turn out. That's a very complex question. We'll see what happens, but it could very well end up with states at some point. Could indeed, it depends what is the likely path here? Assuming we we get a conservative constitutionalist somebody from the list that Trump has put out there on the Supreme Court, what do we think can happen with Roe and what's the

opposition to that pick going to look like? We have David French with us now. He is a lawyer, a veteran of Operation of Rocky Freedom, and also a senior writer for National review. He's got a piece out Progressive deploy religious ignorance and bigotry to stop Amy Coney Barrett, David, great to have you back. Thanks so much for Hamy. I appreciate it. Let's just let's start with so. So Barrett is female, Catholic, and by all objective measures, eminently

qualified for the role of a Supreme Court justice. Right, I mean, she's she's checking all the boxes, but there's one box she checks that is likely to cause some problems on the left. What would that one be? Which he's a very faithful Catholic. Um and not only a

very faithful Catholic. She's involved with a Christian community, a Christian parachurch organization called People of Praise that has come up in the New York Times, has been has come up recently on Twitter where they're casting aspersions on her, almost like she's in some sort of cult, when she's plainly not. They I mean, they bring this up and this comes after who was it Feinstein? Who was remember she grilled? I wish we had that audio handy, but

we don't. But that was during Oh, we do play it. We've got it well done. When you read your speeches, the conclusion one draws is that the dogma lives loudly within you, and that's of concern when you come to big issues that large numbers of people have fought for for years in this country. I assume if you were on the list that you would be a no vote on Row, and that puts a number of us, just very honestly and Layman's language, in a very difficult position.

I'm being considered for a position and a Court of Appeals, and there would be no opportunity to be a no vote on Row. And as I said to the committee, I would faithfully apply all Supreme Court. President. Well, so there we have it, David. We had a Feinstein saying when you read or when you read your speeches, the dogma lives loudly within you. That was quite a moment.

That's definitely quite a moment. And it's something that even when it happened, even though you know this is an appellate court judge, judge, not something that a whole lot of people pay attention to other than sort of legal nerds. Uh. It actually caused quite an up war uproar when it happened last year because it was so blatant, such a

blatant religious test. I mean, it's it turned to one into one of these things where you could tell that you're dealing with a conservative legal nerd when they were walking around with coffee bugs. That says the dogma lives loudly within you. But yeah, it was a preview of it. What would happen if she is nominated for the Supreme Court? Um? And and here's why it's a preview. Um, if you go by objective qualification, how is this person qualified? She

checks all the boxes? I mean, did did very well at an elite law school, was on law review, propellate court clerkship, Supreme Court clerkship, worked atn elite law firm, became a law professor, published peer review articles, and then became a federal judge. I mean, it's it's very similar in some ways to the Elena Kagan path to the Supreme Court. So here's a person universally recognized as as brilliant, universally recognized as someone who really is a star in

the conservative legal world. There isn't a qualification based objection to our nor because most of our work has been in academia. Is there a paper trail of a lot of court, this decisions for the left to pick apart, like the way they tried to pick apart the Gorsets Trucker case back in ten. And so what what are you left with? Your left of the brilliant young legal scholar who's done everything she's supposed to do well regarded

by her peers. The Notre Dame law faculty signed in a letter unanimously in her support, which included progressive, what are you left with? And and for some progressives, what they're left with is she's just too darned Christian. And that's where we are in public debate in this country in right when we still have what sevent of America

I think still at least identifies as Christian. Whether they go to church or not and pay attention to the dogma is a separate issue, But but it is I think where we can expect David that if it's bear by the way, do you have are you putting out odds on this at all? Do you think it's gonna be Barrett? Are you a Kavanaugh person? I think you know. I think I've heard it's between Barrett and Kavanaugh, but I've also heard between it's between Barrett kvan On, Raymond Catholic.

So I think there is there's some resistance to Kavanaugh that I have seen. Um. I think Keithlage and Barrett have the kind of records and the clearly articulated judicial philosophy that an awful lot of Conservatives will look at their nomination and say this is a home run on the order of van Neil Gorsig. Uh. So, you know, I don't know where I am on it right now. I would say, between Kethledge, kavan On, Barrett, do you

have a prefer equal odds between the three? Look if I could wave that, if I could wave a magic one, tomorrow would be Barried or Ketholic. I think either one of those is sort of like this deep errand Judge home run that causes the conservative crowd to you and awe. Now, I gotta tell you, I'm already seeing and I do a show now in the mornings with a very very

uh great and very kind progressive. But you know, we're going back and forth a lot on this stuff, and I'm hearing the arguments against say, one of those nominees and one of these Trump nominees getting through, and David I I try to put on my most objective, honest hat possible. It just all to me sounds a bit like whining, And I wonder if you know there doesn't seem to be a ground. They say, oh, well it's there's no litmus test, but you have to be in

favor of Roe v. Wade. They say, oh, you know, Star a decisive previously just decided things you know can't change, but dread Scott was really bad, so maybe bad things actually should change. When the Supreme Court handles them, they say, oh, you know, it should have been Marrick Garland and we say, well it wasn't. I mean, I just I don't see

a real argument emerging. I just see a bundle of angry emotions that people don't They don't want Row overturn, but they also just don't want a conservative on the on the High Court. I mean, am I missing? What is? Is? There is there an argument I need to take seriously for why Trump should not be able to pick from this list? No, there is no serious argument as to why I shouldn't be able to pick from this list.

I mean, look, a lot of people have remarked on this and noted this, so this is hardly original but look, the bottom line is that the nomination and confirmation process is more partisan than it's ever been. And it's also the bottom line that the judicial philosophies, the different judicial philosophies between four progressive jurists and conservative jurists, the differences in the philosophies is sharper than it's ever been. And so it's it's a reflection of the increased partisanship in

the United States. And I was just on MS and B in the MSNBC talking to a uh debating a progressive on this very topic, and he was showing poll numbers showing that the Americans didn't want this this decision overturned or that decision overturned, or pull number, pull numbers regarding Roe v. Way, and this look, pull numbers are interesting. Election results are binding, And the bottom line is people voted for Donald Trump and large numbers because of this

court and because of the court. And Trump knows it, his team knows it, and they know that they've got to come through here. And the fact that he's come through so well with Gorset and other federal judicial nominations is one of the reasons why the Republican base is still so bonded to him in spite of you know,

many other missteps and in scandals. I appreciate it, by the way, David, and I think you know that because I retweeted earlier today you just saying what I think some people dance around I say it here on the show on a regular basis. In fact, the most uh storied progressive law and jurisprudence professor at my college would walk around saying that he thinks that abortion should be legal. You know all mine months. But Roe is just crap as as law goes, and there's just no defending it.

It's garbage, it's make believe and and you you don't use those words, but you're only to go out there and said the same thing. I think that's important for people to hear right now that this isn't a this wasn't a close call thing. This was a Supreme Court made it up and they need to unmake this up. Right. A lot of people call abortion a constitutional right. I I have acted that what abortion is is it the right to abortion is secured not by the Constitution. It's

secured because you'll see it nowhere in there. It's secured by a lousy judicial precedent. It's secured by a badly reasoned, results oriented activist judicial precedent that should be overturned. It's terrible constitutional law. And look, I'm a conservative, I'm pro life, I freely admit that. But you know what, there were progressives who have agreed with that for a very long time. That Row is just a bad it's bad constitutional law.

It's a badly reasoned court decision. Look, you know, and as I said to you know, my friend I was debating, I said, hey, if you think that that the right to an abortion is so darn't popular, well then what do you have to fear from overturning Row. You'll just go ahead and win all the elections and you'll, you know, the states will, the states will protect the right to

an abortion. But I think the fact of the matter is the radical pro abortion side of the argument knows that in many, if not most, American states, the American people want greater restrictions on abortion, and in some states are willing to outright ban the practice. And so this is something that never should have been taken out of the democratic process. It never should have been rendered beyond democratic debate by judicial president and it's something that's ripe

for reversal. Now. I don't think any of Trump's nominees will get up and say that the reverse row because judicial nominees never say how they're going to rule on potential future cases, either the nominees from the left or the right, so they're not going to say that. But I do hope that whoever the nominee is will when the if and when the day camps have the courage to do the right thing. David French and senior writer

National Review. Check out his peace Right Now nastional view dot com Progressive deploy religious ignorance and bigotry to stop Amy Coney Barrett before I let you go, David, for the July Hamburgers or hot dogs, you only get one choice, Hamburgers always, unless I'm out of ballpark. I totally agree hot dogs are in a coudrement for hamburgers. That's what you eat when you're not totally full after your hamburger. You get that one right, gold big gold star on

a high five. Thank you so much, David. Great to have you on. Thanks for having me same. We're gonna head a quick break. We'll be right back. Answer that question. The President's executive order has uh bought some time for Congress, but the clock is ticking and Congress needs to act to fix this process because we're running out of time on what we have the ability to do, particularly with

the district court that weighed in just last week. The Trump administration never released the So we were Laurence o'donald producer Mike, what what happened here? He just dropped an F bomb in response to Sarah huckby Sanders or did you just drop something I couldn't tell? I thought, you know, when I read that headline, I figured that maybe there was a situation where he was responding to huck Sanders because he but it sounded like he smelled his coffee

on himself or something. Well, Originally, what I was thinking with this segment, folks, was I was gonna tell you about how you need to keep in mind that some of these TV pundit types they hate the president as much, of these as much as these left wing activists, uh that that it's not really an act with them, which

I find even more terrifying. It makes me more uncomfortable to know that there are people out there who really believe who who are multi multi millionaires with huge platforms who believe that the president of the United States is trying to take this country and turn it into some fascist dystopia. I'd rather they were just doing this as some kind of you know, em ploy just to get people to watch. I'd rather this was performance art, performance theater. But I don't know, Mike, do you have any for

me here? Man? Was it was that? What happened there? Why did he? Why did why did o'donald drop an F bomb on live air? Do we know he didn't like what Sanders was saying? Oh? It was in response to Huck Sanders. Yeah, she she They went to a clip of her and like, it looks like they came back from the clip a little sooner than he thought they were coming back, and he got caught dropping the

F bomb. Oh so it's a it's an open mic moment then, Okay, reminds me of the guy who said during the Romney Obama campaign, the guy who said that Romney and this was caught on an open mic. Romney was happy to have a party while quote black people drowned end quote, And that guy got fired. You know what happened to him? He wasn't drummed out of of political analysis life. He's got a huge job over at See, a big job over at CNN. Now he was at Yahoo.

So there's that he actually got guys, he got an upgrade. He got a more important, higher paying job after being a quote objective journalist and accused mit Romney of being a heinous racist based on no informational than he's a Republican. But there, yes, okay, so it was O'donnald just just hate huckeb Sanders. I mean, she has become after Trump, I think, the most by the left wing media. They're they're the nastiest to Sarah Hackeby Sanders. They really are they.

You know, they've gone after her in a way that is, it tells us so much more about the people that are going after her than it does about Sarah Hackaby Sanders, right, tells us so much more about what it is right now that is animating the left. And it's just animous. They are full of hate and bile and nastiness. I'm not hearing ideas from the left at all. I'm just hearing a lot of rage and if nothing else, I think maybe this is a necessary Catharsis for the country

just just to have. Maybe the real secret of of Trump's brilliance is that he will exhaust the rage functions of the left, will become exhausted in time, and then they'll have to be normal people that we can have a discussion with about things that matter. In the meantime, they're gonna go on TV and curse and be angry and hateful and full of all this crazy stuff. You know, people trying to compare what's going on now with the Tea Party. I get so angry about that. Like, the

Tea Party was peaceful rallies. People were respectful and there was a there were policy goals behind what they were doing, and it was all about showing up and voting. They weren't harassing people at restaurants. They weren't, you know, threatening people's families. Rand Paul sentator. Rand Paul just had somebody had to be arrested because someone threatened to kill his

family and chop them up with an ax. I mean, there are maniacs running around now, and it doesn't help when you've got multi millionaires going on TV acting like they're part of the resistance against Nazism aka Trump is um now too. It really doesn't help folks, all right, roll calls next. They're right there the show folks keeping it real time for roll call. I gotta say that's my favorite role call I think I was. I was originally a dub a dubstep guy. That roll call has

now become numero you know for me. Thank you as always for sending me your thoughts and sharing what you think is working here on the show, what you want to hear more of, maybe even what you want to hear less of all the above. By the way, if you guys have any ideas, any feedback on the Freedom

Hunt podcast, let me know. Um I'm curious to see what what you like about it, what you want more of, because I'm toying with the idea of making the Freedom Hut podcast just a really well yeah, Commy Bearon needs to be in it because he's our special Russia correspondent, but like a one subject deep dive for you know, thirty or four minutes. I mean, just really dig into it instead of trying to cover a few things. I'm

experimenting with it. The Freedom on is something I just wanted to do on my own as a UH as a you know, something to add into the mix of what we got going on. So let me know what you think. All right, First up here, Brandon buck my buck fifteen coupon code Black Rifle Coffee or I've just in time for Independence Day. I hope you didn't take offense the other day when I commented on your Facebook live that as a bald guy, I don't like the swoop. No,

of course, no offense taken, my friend, Brandon, totally understand. Uh, the swoop is not for everyone. The swoop is a lot smaller today. By the way, it got d swooped. Really, as I like to say, it looked like they It looked like they shaved a yak when I went to the barber shop. But there you have it. And by the way, thank you for buying some black Rifle, Black Rifle coffee, black beards. Uh uh what is this black

Beard's Delight. I can't really see this. This is a new I don't actually know that one of the flavors. I gotta check that one out. Yes, all, please go to uh black Raffle Coffee dot com slash block coupon code buck fifteen. Drive up those numbers, folks, shows my you know, I really I talked to you about some of this. I'm actually friends with the Black Rifle guys. I mean, they're they're just great guys. I know, their their wives, their girlfriends, they're there are people running that company.

You would here's what we'll tell you about Black Rifle, nine Line and some of the other sponsors we have here on the Buck Sexton Show. You all listening would like the people who were on those companies. You would like them, you'd want to hang out with them. That's pretty cool. It's nice. You know. It's not like I'm sitting around when I have meetings with my sponsors. It's not like we're sitting around in a room full of guys with suits who are all stuffy and asking for

power point presentations. They're like, Hey, let's just all meet and go out for drinks and like, you know, talk about what it was like being over in the sandbox. All right. Next up here, Duke Duke writes, Buck love your show. I really think rising will catch on considering our current climate. See how I did that. Considering shareable segments. People today have short attention spans. Sad but true. If

we could get short segments like I'm too old. The party on Wednesday, it would take me until Friday to recover, and you all sound communist to me. Taking days off and getting paid was hilarious. I want to send that tidbit to friends, et cetera to get them to listen to your tired diet tribe. Well, thank you, Duke, and yeah, we're always trying to think of more ways to make the show better and more share able, So thank you

for your feedback. It is much appreciated. Seth. He writes, Hey, Buck, you mentioned a couple of episodes back, but it's hard to do an impression of kirston Jila Brand because there isn't much to work with. She should be called Kirston Jilla Bland, whoa still loving the podcast Shields High. Thank you, Seth, you're a scholar and a gentleman. Uh. Next up here, Michael writes, it's a fool's errand to think you'll ever convince cab All of the wrongness of reviews and the

rightness of yours ain't gonna happen. Michael, I know, but the exercise is the point, right, the the act, the exercise intellectually of making the case, making the argument, but to try to persuade instead of trying to assault, bludgeon with words and undermine. Right, that's this is what we're trying to do. I've been saying this to it is experimental. Nobody else is doing this out there right now. Everybody else is doing steel cage match. Everybody else is you know,

my side, your side? That's it. So is this gonna work a long term? Who knows, But it's in the meantime at least you're trying something different. You know, Crystal and I get along really well, so we're able to operate in this space of we can share our ideas and thoughts without it, you know, turning into a melee out there, although you know there'll be a melee at some point, just hopefully not a really bad one. Emery Rights, Hey Buck, curious if you have seen the movie Cicario two.

If so, wondering what you think of the angle of the movie. They seem to take a little stab at Fox News, but overall I was not sure if it was left or right. Emory, I have not seen Cicario two. I thought that there were a couple of really excellent scenes in Cicario one. I did think overall, though the movie was a little bit grim and a little bit relentless, and that was not not in a good way. So I will just put that out there. Um, yes, indeed I do want to see it though, I really do

want to check it out. Jonathan, Next up here, Buck. Isn't it amazing how the media went from saying Trump was guilty of human rights violations for separating children from their parents to freaking out about the possibility of a potential new Supreme Court justice voting voting against abortion. It seems like they care more about possibly losing the right

of killing babies than caring for abused children. You know, Jonathan, there are there's really no area right now of American life that I think has become more, ah more polluted by immorality and and illogic and poor thinking and dishonesty than the abortion debate. It's it's just terrible. It's terrible what goes on. It's terrible that people lie about it, and you know, it's it's it's terrible that there is such a massive industry. Now, remember it is an industry

around planned parenthood in these other organizations. And I will tell you, even on the right, it is considered a risk, and I have been told in the past when I've wanted to do segments on abortion, not ever here. Um, I'm I'm giving free rein. One of the reasons why I love the company I work for. Here on radio, I'm giving complete free rein to talk about whatever I want. No one ever ever gives me any direction or take this position or anything else. So you know, God bless

Premiere Radio Networks for that. But in my previous life, at some other places I've been without getting into it, I have been told, uh that you know, abortion segments, you know they don't rate, we don't want to talk about it, We shouldn't do it. And it's one of those areas we'll look at them and say, I don't care if it doesn't rate. You gotta talk about this. I have a I have a platform here, I have

the ability to reach people. We're talking about this. But just just remember that there are a lot of people that say, especially with TV. Actually with TV, uh, the moment you have a segment about abortion, everyone turns it off. That's that's the conventional wisdom about it at least. So uh, here we go. Next up, Chris Right, truckers don't have holidays. Enjoy your day. I'll be behind the wheel well, Chris, thank you for keeping America moving and supplied appreciate it.

Kevin rights, Hey, buck, Uh, can we grab drinks tomorrow afternoon. I just got into d C for a heritage fellowship. Just throwing it out there. Let me know, Uh, Kevin really appreciate it, buddy. But I am gonna be trying to go up to a New York for at least part of this week, so I don't think I'm gonna be in town, but we will see. And thank you for the very kind offer. And if I wasn't well, I'm not allowed to talk about my schedule anymore, nor am I allowed to talk about any sense of fatigue.

Because I am here. I am rocking and rolling in the Freedom Hull. We don't talk about it's I'll sleep when I'm dead, But thank you, Kevin, and if I'm around, I'll certainly reach out and we can hang out and talk some more. Cheryl writes Real News, Yes, that is where I first saw you and was relieved to find true conservative values in the next generation. I love that show and I'm glad to hear good things have come to the careers of those who were part of it.

Please Buck, take care of yourself. You're doing great things in radio and TV, but you need time to rest and renew. Hopefully that's coming um and she says, now you know how the parents of newborns feel. Cheryl, thank you so much for your kind words and your support. And you know, in this business where you get a lot of you're constantly told you're I'm sure a lot of you have this in whatever business you're in, right, whatever, whatever you do, you know what I'm talking about. Rejection.

You have to get not just used to rejection, but embrace rejection as a necessary part of the learning process. For me, it's one of the most one of the most important parts of of maturation, of becoming a a fully functioning and you know, well adjusted adult. It's just you get people that tell you know, you get people to tell you you're not you're not good enough, you're not smart enough, and gosh darn it, people don't really

like you. I mean that, especially in my business. But I know it's true in a lot of businesses, you're always gonna be told no, no, no. But I have the great advantage of doing this show and speaking to you, uh, just a group of people that I have come to to know one by one into the now. You know, football stadium's worth of people who listen to this show in terms of the size, but I've gotten to know the kind of people who listen to this show. I've got to know some of you on an individual basis

actually pretty well. And you all are amazing so and you're very supportive and kind and um and brilliant, and you all give me Actually, you know, sometimes people write and they say that I give them hope for the future, and that's very kind that I appreciate it. But actually, the people who listen to this show are the reason that I think we're all gonna be okay, because I know you all are the ones that are actually manning the front lines of freedom in your own ways, in

your towns and cities across the country. And you're good people. You're kind, and you actually care about what's happ putting to this nation, and you want to help everybody and do the best you can day in and day out. I mean, I'm if that sounds a little corny, folks, I apologize, but it's really the way I feel, um and as somebody who's dealing with things in the in the TV world. I can tell you TV world is disgusting. I mean the stuff you have to deal with, the

people you have to deal with a lot of the time. Look, there's some amazing people to write, but you know you're you're up and you're up against it and it's not fair, it's not right. Uh. Radio for me is the purest connection for somebody who has a message and really wants to become it, really wants to have an audience that's like an extended family. So that's my way of saying, this is what I look forward to every day. So thank you so much for spending your time with me. Um.
