Reject The Lib Panic Machine

media want you to be constantly afraid? Ask yourself that question. There are very important answers that will come to mind. Why do they want you terrified now? Of everything they're telling you about? Just look at the dominant news stories. Look at what's in the headlines. You have the election that's over and Trump won't accept the results, and everyone's supposed to be completely freaked out about this. But if you dig into it a little bit, if you look

at what's going on. States haven't even certified their elections yet, there's nothing that's illegal, nothing that's outside of the established process. This is playing out. This system is in fact working as it was designed to at every stage. Now, this is a very complicated system. There's a lot of variables, a lot of things that can happen, and yes, things can go wrong, but there are provisions made for that.

Those who are telling you that democracy itself is under threat, those who are doing everything they can to humiliate and undermine anyone who just wants answers. Here, Let's see what evidence is there. Let's read these affidavits about voter fraud. The people that want to shut all of that down are doing so for a reason, and we know who they are, we know what they want, who they support,

and it's not Donald Trump. Now look at COVID stories of people talking about how hospitals are about to get overwhelmed. You've got these Joe Biden advisors out there discussing long term shutdowns. All of this is happening right now. And we've been here before. We know what's true at some level and what's not. We understand the limitations of some of these policies they're implementing, and in some cases there's

no upside, there's only downside. But they want you to believe that within two to three weeks hospitals will be overwhelmed. This time, there were no hospitals that turned away patients. There was nobody who didn't have a ventilator. Just think back to March and April in this country, in the worst hit regions of the US. It didn't get to the point that they said it would, but there was panic. Well, what I'm telling you right now is we need a

panic shutdown. People need to stop trying to terrify everybody and you. And that's the real threat as I see it, because when you're when you're completely unnerved, when you're operating under this cloud of constant anxiety, which the media and the Democrats and the anti trumpsters are just just feeding on right now, and the lockdowners going to and the mask shamers, when you have to make decisions with that going on all around you as an individual, and yes,

as a society, you don't make very smart ones. You don't make very good ones. And I think that's really some level the point. They want you worried, they want you concerned, and yes, some of them have I think

brainwashed themselves. I do believe there are people in the media, perhaps many of them, who really think that Trump is a threat to our democracy, who really believe that By taking this to court and having lawyers present judges with affidavits and other evidence and look at the numbers and ask for recounts that this is you know exactly what Stalin would have done. Paul pot right out of his playbook. I mean, this is insane what you're hearing about this.

The claims that are being made all the time about just what Trump is doing are false, and you know their false. And because of the environment, Because of the environment, you have people that don't care what the costs are to the bad decision making as long as it serves the political purpose. Schools shut down is probably the best example of the second point too. When the schools shut down. There's no way to justify this based on the numbers,

based on what we've seen. But they had to do what they thought before to make sure that the country did not feel like it was normalizing, that we were getting through the pandemic. It was useful against Trump, so they figure, let's do it again because that was our position. And no one wants to admit that they were wrong. No one wants to admit who's making decisions about keeping schools closed that they never should have done this, And if they were to change course now, it would be

an admission of that on the voter fraud issue. Right, You've got both of these. There's such a fixation with exaggeration, so much intensity around getting people to stop asking the questions, give up, concede, bend the knee. Eventually they may get what they want in terms of aiden victory. That's possible, and if the votes show that, that's where we are. Friends.

It's a pandemic year. Things are crazy. I know Donald Trump did a great job as president, but you know, unfortunately the media is entirely against him and we got a once in a century pandemic happening. It's possible. It's possible that when all the votes are counted in it's all done, he is not the president of the United States. And yes, there might be a lot of fraud. There might There certainly are a lot of regularities. There's all

that stuff in there too. But if we can't prove it, we operate within a system that says this is where we are. We don't have an alternative unless we want to blow up the whole system, which is what liberals do. That's what the left does. They don't get their way,

they threaten the whole thing. If we don't get the desired outcome here, after we've exhausted all options in court, after we've gone through all of this, is incumbent upon us to say, all right, fine, let's focus on those Georgia Senate runoff races, and let's continue to push the ideas. Let's push the political movement that Donald Trump started of a conservative populism that fights for what it believes in. None of that changes, but here we are. It's going

into the holidays. The media is going to have less and less that they're reporting on, because, as you know, media is a narrative. It's a construct from people that make a living doing just that. All right, They come up with what they think you should hear, they think you should know. The one thing you'll see a continuation of here is to keep the pressure on, to keep the pressure on Trump and the recount efforts and the legal challenges, and to keep pressure on everybody to think

that COVID is completely beyond our control. Unless you just abandon all all of your liberties, unless you give up whatever whatever rights you're supposed to have under the constitution, you have to say, sorry, doesn't count right now. Because Governor Cuomo or Governor Newsom have better ideas. Governor Whitmer, Governor Murphy, you know, Governor Wolf go down the list.

They know better. So we'll just allow them to completely overreach and to make these dictatorial moves, or else the hospitals will will overflow, they tell you, or else everyone around you could die. This is what they say. It's not true. It's not true, but there is a pandemic of panic out there, and there are a lot of people who are pushing it. They do so to control you. They do so because it allows them to monetize your fear.

Every time there's a new story that's some other thing that could be terrible about COVID that you know, new study says that COVID may actually turn your entire head into a potato. And everyone clay, oh my gosh, I don't want to be a potato. And they all click. And it turns out some guy who's kind of crazy thinks he had COVID and said he you know, you click gun it into the stories. Nothing but you clicked

on it. There's no accountability for this anymore. The biggest news organizations in the country, in the world do this on a regular basis, so they're making money off of your fear. They're controlling you through your fear, and they're also mobilizing their own side by creating false fear in

them that what they're telling people is true. And they sit above all of this like puppet masters, turning us against each other, making people, making people go into this Thanksgiving scared of their family members, scared of spending time with loved ones. For what well, I told you why they do it, But understand the motivations, and then it becomes a lot easier to ignore the hysteria. Look at

this for yourself. This is a time in America, or the ability to think for yourself, to come to your own conclusions based on information that you have verified that you know is accurate. It's more important than ever because there is so much out there. There's so much propagandizing going on, and unlike in previous eras, it follows you everywhere, you carry it with you. You carry the surveillance and propaganda machine that big tech has made to keep your

mind stuck in this matrix of panic and fear. So you have to find a way to break out from that. And yes, I think listening to a show like this one is a step in that direction a big one because I actually get to tell you what I think is true. And I don't answer to anybody. I answer to you, the audience. That's it. There's no one who ever tells me what to say, no one who ever tells me what to think. And I wouldn't take a

job that was the case. And so here I am trying to tell you, please please block out the nonsense. We can go through this process. There's nothing The system is not broken because Trump and his lawyers are looking for answers. He's not a tyrant. They're not gonna have to pry him with a crowbar out of the White House. This is all crap, it's all lies, it's nonsense. They're gonna keep saying that. They're gonna keep saying it. They're

hoping to wear you down. They're hoping to wear us down so that we don't support the quest for answers. And I tell you this, it's a quest that may be unsuccessful. I do not overpromise here, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't do it. You know, we still check. We should still know important for this election and critical for the next election. And then on top of that, we have this pandemic that is, yes, still infecting people, and yes it is still dangerous, especially to people in

a certain age group. But they don't want you to see what the real numbers are and what's really happening all around you. They want to run the same playbook of oh my gosh, everybody, hide, don't leave your home, do what the experts say. Now, there are a lot of reasons for this. One of them, though, is that's what they told you the last time. Can you imagine if you just said, you know what, I'm going to enjoy my life for now. I'm going to go for walks without a mask on oh my gosh, outside without

a mask. I'm going to see my loved ones if I have symptoms. If any of us are sick, we will we will stay away, we will quarantine. But if no one has any symptoms, we're willing to take that risk unless you have a relative who's particularly elderly and immunocompromise. And that's a decision that you should make as individuals,

not that the government should be making for you. If you do that, if you live your life, and you are able to have greater joy and more important memory because you've ignored the so called experts on the media. Then that's a step in breaking their control over you. Then that's a step in removing that constant cloud of fear, in separating from those mechanisms that they use, like we're all a bunch of lab rats and they want us to go a certain direction of the maze. Break yourself

away from this. We will get through this election recount, we will get through this pandemic. We're going to be okay. But you don't have to let them control you. You don't have to let them brainwash you in order to get there. In fact, it only makes everything worse. Fight back against this. Establish your own individual freedom, your own individual limits. Don't let them do what they want to do to you right now. Don't fall victim to this pandemic of panic that the media is trying to jam

down on your throat every chance they get. You're in the freedom mind. This is the Buck Sex and Show Podcast. What do I mean by panic? What do I mean by losing your mind? Exaggerating and no longer having any grip on reality because of the left wing narrative. There are so many examples of it out there, and perhaps the best one right now is the utterly deranged but somehow amusing because he's so crazy. Keith Olberman play too.

But history will also ask what was in the hearts of the men and women who continued to support this creature Trump after his defeat, after his repudiation, after the national wildfire that was COVID nineteen accelerated into this hellscape of conflagration in the days after the twenty twenty election. Who let Trump continue to run the pandemic fight into the ground. Who let Trump stay manifestly insane as he

is in office? Who refused to risk anything, refused to risk even a momentary loss of power, to instead be certain that death ruled this nation? Who were these people? Did you put them on trial? Did any of them go to prison? What did you do to Trump after it was clear that he knew what was ahead and lied and lied and lied and lied and lied. What did you do to make sure that no leader could ever commit this treason again? Treason not against the country,

treason against humanity, treason against humanity. Sorry, I've actually sitting here gay. This guy is a total loon. Remember he was MSNBC's biggest draw for years. They're paying this guy millions of dollars a year. It's a total lunatic. He sits there with a thesaurus or and then bringing together the myriad of all the big words that I can throw into one monologue so that I can sound like somebody who's very intelligent. What a what a total joke. But this is what, this is what happens. This is

what you get. Trees are the guns humanity. Maybe I should just do a show like I'll just do a show as Keith Alberman one day. Well, I don't go to sound. What's going on? All right? If I if I changed my voice and I sound for it, he's great, he does. It's whatever, man, he calls me sex, tex bump or whatever, which I gotta say? That would people always, you know, ask me what my stage name would be. It's already Buck Sexton is my name, and you all know this. People, who oh, is it your real name?

As if that's some kind of attack. My middle name is Buckman. Everyone has called me Buck since I was a baby. That's all that is. It's always been Buck. But Tex sex Bump would be would be a good stage name. Actually we're really gonna go there, so i'd have to work on my dance moves though, producer mark for what industry? Is that a good name? My stage name? Ye know what stage? I don't know. Let's just say

Broadway because there could be kids listening. So all right, and now, oh oh more, panic, more and more, Oh my gosh, let's just say the craziest stuff about Trump possible. This is what they're doing. Play three. All those people who now have the virus, who don't make it from now until January twentieth. This blood is on his hands because this isn't like he's sitting around thinking how can I hell, he's sitting around doing nothing. He's doing nothing, and he knows what he needs to do and he's

not doing it, and neither are these Republicans. And I just I don't know when America turned into this particular version of America, but I gotta tell you I don't like it. He's doing nothing. I've never seen a president that didn't care whether people lived or die. I mean, they say these horrible things about him. What about the vaccine that has ninety five efficiency effectiveness that we only have because the federal government backstop them and said we'll

pay for the vaccine. Make your best stuff and we will pay for you to make it. Now, we'll cover We'll cover you. What about that? Oh no, he's done nothing, though, what does Whoopie Goldberg, renowned critical thinker and epidemiologist, what does she think the president's supposed to do? There are state by state lockdowns going and everywhere, and they're not going to do a damn thing. So what is Trump supposed to do? Exactly? Thanks for listening to the bus

sets and show podcasts. Remember to subscribe on Apple podcasts, the iHeartRadio app, or wherever you get your podcasts. The answer was, I would follow the science. I am not going to shut down the economy period. I'm going to shut down the virus. That's what I'm going to shut down again, No national shutdown, No national shutdown because every region, every area, community is can be different, and so there's no circumstance which I can see would require a total

national shutdown. I think that would be counterproductive. Well, that's good to hear, but he still wants a national mask mandate, which is also nonsense. Why is that going to be better than what we have now? Where is the national mask mandate going to? What's that going to affect what state that doesn't have a mask mandate is going to be so much better off with the national a federal

mask mandate. Never mind the constitutional issues that obviously come to mind here, under what authority would the federal government say you have to wear a mask all the time. If the federal government could say you have to wear a mask all the time, the federal government can also tell you that you can only wear, you know, blue shirts on Tuesdays because they say so. There's no authority for this, there's no basis for this. People say, oh,

but quarantine powers. Quarantine is for the sick, this is for everybody. We have transformed our understanding of public health policy this year in terrible ways. Now, completely completely healthy people who are ninety nine percent of the people in the country right now, even with COVID surging, have to do all these things because the government says so, because they're now saying that the risk is too great. But he's not going to shut down the economy. He's going

to shut down the virus. This is this is a promise that only a moron could make. How is he going to shut down the virus? He has nothing to say about this. They don't have some secret plan. This is the part of this. There's all this hysteria you heard of from Whoopi Goldberg before Trump doesn't care able people dying, Olberman wants in prison for crimes against humanity

or whatever. You've all this hysteria, right, the panic that I keep talking about, and then you get these very flimsy talking points from the left about what they think should be done here they have no answer. What more harassment of people for having too many at at a Thanksgiving gathering, more harassment of people because they are involved in doing the normal things that human beings do around the holidays. They think that's gonna shut down the virus.

I'm gonna I'm gonna shut down the economy. I'm gonna I'm gonna shut down the virus. Really, how we never we never get to how we just got more of the same. And they're actually the things they say that are intelligent or that makes sense, the things that Democrats say. You go, okay, well that's not crazy, because there are things like Biden saying I'm not gonna shut down the whole country. Okay, well that's that's at least some concession to not being completely bonkers. But here here's the Vice

president and Penn's talking about the same thing. Play eleven. That being said, President Trump wanted me to make it clear that our task force, this administration, and our president does not support another national lockdown, and we do not support closing schools. You'll hear from doctor Robert Redfield at the CDC that actually, the CDC never recommended that we close schools at any point this year. Now, a couple

of things here. One notice notice that Redfield, I mean sorry, I noticed that penns here is telling you that they don't want a national shutdown, that that's not a good idea. And that's exactly what Biden says. So what is the thing that, what is the thing that Trump is supposed to do that he's not doing that the Trump administration is derelict on We never hear it. They never come up with what it is. Okay, beyond that, talks about schools. Here in New York City, where I'm doing this show,

schools are shut down. Public schools now, private schools and parochial schools have stayed open and they're fine, but public schools are shut down. We are lectured all the time by people who are who are really the primary purveyors of the most extreme lockdowns and masks and all the rest of it. Right, we're lectured by them about how they have to listen to the science, but they have always, in every phase of this, been picking and choosing what science they listen to. And I don't even mean on

areas where there's disagreement. I mean they just ignore things. They just ignore. There is no basis, there's no basis in science, in data to believe that mask wearing outdoors, for example, is necessary does not exist. If it did, trust me, you would know about it. Doesn't exist, no basis for it. There's no basis to believe that any substantial transmission of this happens outside. So if we're talking about acceptable risk, almost no risk would inherently be acceptable risk.

Right when you have almost no risk of getting it outside, then that's acceptable. Stop wearing a mask outside in New York City right now? If I went out on the street, ninety percent of people outdoors by themselves masks on. Why because And the people will say, oh, it's because it's more convenient, Well, then then why when they walk around with the mask on but pulled down, and then when they go inside they just pull it on. It's obviously

more comfortable. Okay. No one likes breathing through these idiotic face diapers. No one enjoys it, at least not that I know of. But with schools, the CDC never said shut down schools. Now, I argue with the CDC about other stuff. I understand that. But the way the left plays the game, anything that the CDC says that they like cannot be argued it's science. And then when the CDC says things that the teachers unions, which is all this is about, that the teachers unions don't like, it

gets ignored. It's like it didn't happen. Wow, that seems seems quite a bit contradictory, doesn't it. It It seems like that's not the way you would approach something if it was really all about the science. Here's the CDC director. Now, granted, he's a guy who said that face masks are even better for protecting you than a vaccine, which was an

irresponsible and indefensively stupid thing to say. It is we all know it is, okay, but he is the CDC director, and we have a lot of data on schools globally as well as here in the United States, and here's what he's telling you about whether schools should be open. Play ten using the data to make decisions in their communities, particularly as relates to K through twelves and institutes of

higher learning. These clearly the data support that it's really important from public health perspective, both from the pandemic as well as what well you'll hear about in a minute, that these schools stay open. They should all be open. There is no good reason for them to be closed. There's no excuse for them to be closed. This is honestly,

it is outrageous. This should not be happening, but it is happening, and it's happening because there are powerful interests known as teachers unions that are essential for the Democrat Party, who have decided that they like being able to hold cities like New York as well as other places hostage by pretending they're also terrified of COVID that they can't actually go in and teach kids. So your grocery store clerk, your local pharmacy worker shows up, does their job and

God bless them for doing it. But your teacher in the public school system too scary to be around the kids. When kids, as we know we have the data, they're at effectively no risk. But they're also very unlikely to spread it to adults, probably because their immune system handles it very well, so they don't become major major vectors of viral spread. Right, even if they do get an infection,

their body handles it very well. The young immune system does very well against COVID, thank god, right, could you imagine I didn't even want to tell you what it was like the Spanish flu pandemic of nineteen eighteen, in the second wave. It was remarkably deadly, I mean horrifically deadly in a very fast period of time for people from twenty to forty so, you know, and at that time people had a shorter lifespan, so that was really

those are your primary caregivers for children. Those are the people that are prime working age, and you'd think they'd be and they were. They were dropping all over the place. And it was very rapid too. It was not what you see here with COVID, where it's weeks of progression and you fight it and you got a shot. People were dying in days after getting it. So we're in a far better position with this than we were with that.

I mean, really, they're not comparable diseases in terms of lethality, and they're just they're not and not a part of that is because we have better treatment than everything else. But if you read about the Spanish flu of nineteen eighteen, especially in the second wave that hit, it's terrified, It's truly terrifying. So here we are with all the information we need to know that schools are fine, schools should

be open. Why isn't the media demanding schools open because the media is run by democrats and democrats all though they need teachers unions, and your mainstream media outlets will not cross teachers unions because that's their team. That's why there's no other reason. There's no other good explanation for why schools are shut down with the tremendous damages is

doing to kids their development. They're learning to the parents who have to care for them, and the Newsoms and the Cuomos and the Pelosi's, they don't give a crap. They don't care. In fact, they'd rather just be the great science believing fighters of COVID with their public policy. They'd rather play that game in their heads than deal with the reality of the fact that the panic they've created around this has resulted in these nonsensical and destructive

school lockdowns. That's really where we are. You're in the freedom Hud. This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast. Well, I understand why it's confusing. They're like, Okay, said mass work, and I'm doing I'm here and these spaces are safe, and you're closing my space and leaving open the spaces where people are on mass and I think that's very I worry about that because then it gives people the option to say, well, bars and restaurants are open, then

I can have twenty people over for Thanksgiving. And so I don't like it to be any number. I like it to be keep it to your immediate household, because you know, if you say it can be ten and it's eight people from four different families, then that probably is not the same degree of safe as ten people

from your immediate household. Understand that ten people from your immediate household, there's no degree of safe because one person who went to the grocery store, or who went to a restaurant, or who whatever, comes home, and the most likely place you get this is we all know is within the same household, so the different household thing, it does really work the way she's proposing it. It's all about the odds, friends, this is all about understanding what

the risks are as a percentage. No one has perfect answers about any of this, But that's doctor Burke's who you're hearing a lot less from these days, and she's out there telling everybody will now be your immediate household. This is a really, I guess you could say a teachable moment. This is a classic moment because what you're seeing is that government overreach will always result if we allow it, and unless we say enough, that's overreach. Government

overreach will result in more overreach. There's a there's a snowball effect, right. What they do. They say, we're going to make this unsupported, unconstant, scientifically unsupported, unconstitutional demand of you, and then what happens is people will say, hold on a second, that doesn't even work because it's not supported by the science. That's very urbitrary. You're making arbitrary dictates and saying that we have to obey them. So then what they'll do is instead of instead of coming back

to you. This is just the nature of government. This is how it functions. They're not going to say, you know what, you're right, we shouldn't be making that arbitrary decision for you. They'll say, huh, let's change, let's do another You're okay, fine, it's not good enough. Let's tighten the screws a little more. Let's have another arbitrary decision imposed on you by the government. So it was, you know, we want you to stay at home with a certain

number of people. You're right, that doesn't really make sense. So let's now say it's only people that live with you you should have Thanksgiving with. Now that's just her opinion, I understand. But this is the way those opinions, as we know from individuals like doctor Burke's, become laws, they become regulations, and this is how you get to the

absurdity of the mask up between bites in California. Right, Well, we want people, we know the restaurant industry is getting really bad hurt, and we say, masks work, So we'll let you be in a restaurant. You'll work in a restaurant as long as they're wearing a mask. Ball you work. But to sit and eat, you gotta pull a mask. Down. So you're right, that doesn't really make sense. So let's tell people to start masking up in between bites. Right,

that's what I mean. It always results in more government overreach because it's not in the nature of a system like this, it's not in the nature of either bureaucracy or just the functionings of a government entity to think we shouldn't have been doing the thing we did. Didn't work, we shouldn't have been doing it in the first place. So we're just going to step back from that. That can only happen if the people push Otherwise, the government

action is always more government, more government action. That's their response. And that's all over the place with the COVID lockdowns and everything else. Right, you see this, Okay, lockdowns didn't work. You know what we need. Lockdowns didn't work. We need more severe lockdowns. Find me an area and I'll show

you how this applies. Right, find me a place where they've done things that we're not supported by the science that we're just dictated by government officials and you know in the past, and I will present you with Oh, and now here's their new version of this, with even more arbitrary rules, with even more tinkering around the edges, and as I keep saying, this only stops when we finally say we're just not going to do this anymore.

We're not going to accept these kinds of rules. Or you can listen to people like this, this nurse who's telling you do everything that I say, or else you're going to have a tube down your throat. Play seven. Yes, we're frontline here in the hospital, but the real front line is on the streets, in the grocery stores. Wash

your hands, wear your masks, stay away. I promise that the little bit of time and a little bit of effort it takes outside of here is worth it, because once you're here, wearing a mask is better than having a tube down You're true comments. I understand she's a nurse and she's clearly distraught, and I feel badly that she's so terrified of this, and she's seeing patients who were dealing with it, and she's seeing patients who were dying.

I'm also here to just say, as a human being with a brain who has seen what has gone on for nine months now, you can wash your hands, you can wear your mask. You can do that all day long and still get sick. So the constant hectoring of you know, do this, do this and you'll be fine, Do this and you'll be fine. It doesn't work that way. It doesn't. They can keep saying it's just not true. They can keep making the claim doesn't change the facts.

So remember that as we go forward here, they will not admit where they were wrong, and where we allow them to continue to be wrong, they will only get more wrong. Thanks for listening to the Bust and Show podcasts. Remember to subscribe on Apple podcasts, the iHeartRadio app, or wherever you get your podcasts. You haven't really seen it yet, but you will, especially if there is a Biden administration.

You'll see the way that COVID nineteen and the government powers that have been taken here are used for things that have nothing to do with COVID. It's going to happen. We have now conceded that just because they say so. Governors, for example, can tell you where you can travel, who you can see, what you can do, what business you can open. That you have to constrict your breathing. You have to interfere with the most natural, necessary thing you

do every day. Breathing is first the first thing you do all every day. When you wake up, you are breathing. If you are not, you are dead. They will interfere with the most basic biological process you have with a pen and a phone, with a declaration from on high. You don't think that that has an effect on where society is going and how much control they think they can exert over the rest of us all my friends.

That absolutely does. And Joe Biden is already starting to say things that lets you understand just where this is going to be used, how this will be deployed play clip twelve. But the purpose here is to get We talked a lot about what the governor's about, what the immediate needs are. I'm gonna we're gonna impose the We're gonna enforce the excuse me, employ the Defense Reconstructive Act to be able to go out there and dictate companies build and do following things. We need much more testing,

we need much more masking. We mean that's more. We need clubs. We're USUAB Yeah, I mean, I know it's Biden just kind of using a whole jumble here. You think that they're going to stop it just stuff that us He's gonna use the Defense Production Act. He says, you think that stops at COVID. These these people, the Democrats,

playing the climate change for examples, an existential threat to humanity. Now, a normal, reasonable person doesn't think, oh, they can leverage the Defense Production Act to create you know, windmills or green jobs or whatever it is that they're talking about.

But Democrats are not normal in that regard. They believe that it's an existential threat and therefore it does fall under national security, national security auspices, and they can use something like the Defense Production Act to pursue the crazy green New Deal policies and this stuff with COVID. You know, we need more masks, we need more testing. They've been

saying that all along. That has not changed anything. Right, we were told we didn't have enough, you know, we were told we didn't have enough ventilators, and then we found out we didn't even need the ventilators. We were told that we were running out of ppe. And now everywhere I go they're they're actually giving out masks. A lot of stores and places I go, they're actually giving you free masks. Here you go, take a mask. You know,

I remember, we needs to give out breath mints. At places now they're giving you masks to prevent the spread of an aerosolized disease. But that's where we are. This is where the situation the country is in right now. But they're going to use this stuff for a whole lot, and you need to be aware of that right now,

because this is unprecedented in my lifetime. I don't know if the country's ever been through something quite like this before, where they've been able to anesthetize us enough with fear, but also with delicious food, entertainment options, the Internet, all

this stuff. If we lived in a pre internet era and people were just told to stay in their homes and they couldn't communicate and escape into all these different entertainment venues and everything from their homes, I think this would all be if we couldn't do your job from home. Think about that. Imagine if we didn't have all these technologies that allow for virtual meeting and everything else, the

lockdown wouldn't have lasted a month. But in his sense, technology has also While it has enabled us to be far more comfortable and more capable during these lockdowns, it

also has been a necessary condition for them. You really think if you were stuck in a home where all there was, let's say, was a black and white TV with four channels or three channels or whatever it was, and you barely could get in touch with anybody via phone, and you couldn't go anywhere, you couldn't see anyone, and you couldn't go to your job, and you couldn't do your work from home. How long do you think that

would last in society. So, because of the technological changes, people are much more accepting of this than they would otherwise be. My concern though, is that everyone now just kind of has this fatalism about well, if the government says they've got a really good reason, if the government says that they have a real need to shut down the Bill of Rights, who am I? Who am I to tell them? Now? Who am I to stand in

their way? And as you know the answers, you're everybody, You're you're in an absolute position to stand in the government's way over these things. If not you, there won't be anyone. If we the people don't speak out against this, if we don't decide that what they've been doing is crossing boundaries that they have no right to cross, they're just gonna keep going they're not going to stop. And I think this was unfortunately something that took too long for a lot of a lot of conservatives to come

to this conclusion. I didn't see it at first. I thought, and this was a mirror imaging fallacy. I thought the Democrats would do. If I were Biden, what I would do coming to office is try to get everybody back to normal life and prosperity, and get that vaccine out as fast as possible, and then just and be the guy who's almost the great liberator from COVID. That's not

going to be the Democrat approach. They're going to use twenty twenty one the way that Obama used two thousand and nine after the financial crisis, which was what can I do now? How can I exploit the crisis and a terrified and beaten down population to achieve the policy design ends that I want. That's what the Biden team is coming in and that's what they want to do, which is why I know the left is complaining right

now about how they think that Biden's not doing. You know, Biden won't do enough that they want, and just wait, just wait, They'll find their way into the upper reaches of this administration, assuming there's a Biden administration, and they'll be making all kinds of decisions that you're not really allowed to fight against because if you are, if you do so, you are making it impossible for us to protect people from COVID. You are standing in the way

of science. All of these, all of these slogans will be deployed for things that have nothing to do with COVID. Get ready for that. This is the mobilized It's the Olynskiite mobilization of a population around one issue that can then be used to deal with any issue. Doctor Fauci's out there these days. He's still you know, he's maybe he's gonna be a with a Biden administration that they come in. He's gonna be talking about the stuff. How

can I help Joe Biden? You know, I like him more than Trump because you know, he's a Democrat like I am a big lib. You know, we'd all know Fauci's a big Lib. And he says this about where we are with the vaccine. I wanted to share some thoughts about it, play nine and I hear a lot now when we made these announcements this past Monday, and then two mondays ago about some reticence of people, well did you rush this? Was this too fast? Is it

really safe? And is it really efficacious? The process of the speed did not compromise at all safety, nor did it compromise scientific integrity. It was a reflection of the extraordinary scientific advances in these types of vaccines, which allowed us to do things in months that actually took years before. So I really want to settle that concern that people have about that. Where was that very straightforward Foucci on

the vaccines a couple of months ago? Did he ever call out Kamala Harris and Joe Biden for straight up undermining sense that the vaccine was going to be safe, which is what they were doing. Can't trust a vaccine? They were even asking you, would you trust a vaccine or the Trump? I don't trust the scientist, Spid says, but I can't trust the Trump. Well, Trump's not in a lab with a beaker and a Bunsen burner saying I'm developing the very busincks. He No, that's not what

was happening. We all know it. So what exactly was the was the reason that Faucci was was m Ia on this. Wouldn't it have been helpful to have this this this guy who's become the chief voice of the really the lockdowners and the panic mongers. But wouldn't wouldn't it be good to have that guy come out and say, hey, everybody, take this vaccine. In fact, Rand Paul is also a doctor. People forget that MD Rand Paul is saying that he thinks people should be able to get the vaccine like tomorrow.

I mean, the FDA they say is about is about to clear one of them. But you know, we're here hearing all about this delay and all this other stuff. If you want to take a vaccine that is currently there should be something that you can just sort of sign that says, look, I'm not worried about this anymore. I wanted to take it. I want to do it. So much of the slowdown in this process comes from liability, from the basically the ever present blood sucking from society

that the trial lawyers unfortunately are responsible for. That's that never really gets talked about enough because the trial lawyers are very powerful, big lobbyists, very very important demographic for a very important special interest for the Democrat Party. But it's this is another reason why businesses have to do all these stupid mandates because if they don't do stuff that's suggested by the state or that's demanded by this state, also one has to do is get COVID or then

they come and they sue. They say, well, you don't require masks, so I'm suing you, right, same problem we have the vaccines. We have to be super duper duper sure that they're safe for basically everybody or else they are going to be lawsuits around this. And I'm gonna tell you this right now. If if I were over sixty and I had the opportunity to take this vaccine and you know, jab it into my arm or my butt or wherever, you know, wherever you need to do it.

I think it's the arm probably, I don't know. I don't really feel like they do shots in the butt anymore. But wherever you got to jab it, you know, um, then then I would do it, absolutely, without without question. I would take it. I know some of you who have your concerns everything else, you should have that freedom to make your choice. But I would take it. If I were in a high risk category, I would not not even blink and I would take it. So I think people should be able to take it even more

easily and even more quickly. I'm sitting here wondering, we keep hearing it's going to take all this time to distribute this. If we get this vaccine out to you know, a large percentage of people who are basically retirement age, right, so let's say sixty five and old older. If we get this out within a month, we've got twenty or thirty million seniors who have been been inoculated. The death rate from COVID the following month is going to drop like a stone in water. And that's really what we're

concerned about. I know there's this stuff about oh long COVID, and people will get all terrified about these news stories they read. It's really whether people make it through this virus without, you know, without losing their lives. That's our primary concern. And if you inoculate senior citizens, you're in a great position to watch the death the death rate just completely, almost almost evaporate. Very few people in their thirties and forties and fifties die for very very few.

So even if we just get it to the most vunerab we get it to senior there'll be tremendous benefit that comes from that. And I'm sitting here just saying, I mean, look, I talked to a guy from Warp Speed, a doctor interviewed him a couple of weeks ago about what's going on. I don't understand we're waiting. What are we still waiting for? Why are we still waiting? Why isn't this vaccine, you know, this weekend in drug stores across the country, or at least in distribution centers the

federal government set up. Let's go. There's no benefit to waiting this point. It does feel a little bit. I know we're supposed to be so thankful that we've gotten to this point, but I'm telling you it's legal stuff. That's it's fear of lawsuits. They gotta do this, they gotta do that, they gotta do all these little final things when really people are dying. We should be getting this vaccine to them as soon as possible. Day's count.

Why isn't it being distributed right away? That that's my feeling on this, So I would take it to due even more radical places. I agree with Rand Paul. You should be able to sign a waiver. That's like, just give me the vaccine to more. I don't wait for anymore this approved crap. It obviously works. Give me the vaccine. That's what I would do. You're in the Freedom This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast. No, I'm not concerned.

The vast majority of the American people. They've already all the point that has indicated all all the Republicans who worry about it as higher. But over seventy eight percent of American people believe it's without question, is legitimate. And I just think it's and I think most of the Republicans I've spoken to, including some of the governors, I think this is debilitating. It's not a It sends a

horrible message about who we are as a country. You know, I really don't need to have any lectures from Democrats who've been telling us that Trump was a traitor for the Russians. Total fantasy, total bull I really don't need to have them tell us about how how it looks bad for us as a country. Just, you know, enough

enough with that nonsense. It's so pathetic, it's so transparent, and it's just another pressure mechanism to get people to drop the quest, to get the investigation to get real answers about different aspects of voter irregularity and voter fraud. Let's see, let's see, they just did their own version of not accepting the results and doing a special counsel. They wanted to throw people. They did throw people in prison. The Democrats had people thrown in prison because they didn't

like the twenty sixteen election. That's what happened. And they dragged the country through this nonsense nightmare of Russia collusion everything else. And now they want a lecturists about Oh, this's just not a good look. Oh this is not really, this is not the America I know and love. Shut up, Joe Biden. Oh really, this guy's gonna be president. I don't care that he's president. The guy's just he's such a loser. It's so sad. This is the best the

Democrats get. They put this guy. He's just a been there forever, interchangeable with one hundred other politicians. Loser, speaking of which we always can count on our side to help their side. In some cases, there's always gonna be some people always have Some Republicans who decide that they're going to take a swipe at the Republican Party because they really want that pad on the head from the New York Times. You know, they want the Democrats to

just to like them. They can't help, but they want Democrats. They just they want to be one of the Yeah, they don't agree with them and everything, but they want to be one of the good ones. And you know who's really a perfect example. It's maybe the quintessential example of this right now, good old Willard Mitt Romney played nineteen.

I'm surprised that that there as many people as you said, to give it credibility, even with their own country, because the president said before the election, if you were to lose, it would be because of voter front, would be because of crypt And then a day or two after the election, whether vote was called other major networks, he indicated there was massive fraud and that he had been robbed of the victory. And that was before there was any evidence

that had been gathered. So it's one thing to charge a crime before you actually see any evidence. Normally you find evidence, and then after seeing evidence, then you reach a conclusion about whether or not there was a crime committed. But I understand the president it's not happy with the result. He's entitled to pursue his legal remedies, but I think in all likelihood it's pretty clear that that Joe Biden will become the next president. Notice he never had these

kind of words for Democrats over Russia collusion. Mitt Romney was was real quiet about that, but he's happy to happy to take shots at our side. Maybe Trump thought there was fraud in the election because Democrats made sure that it was really easy before the election for them to be fraud Mit you ever think of that? Thanks for listening to the Bust. Remember to subscribe on Apple podcast,

He is a national security and political analyst man who knows a lot about a lot of things. Dave, good to have you on the show. Great to be here. Thanks. So how are you feeling about where we are right

now in this whole lawsuit recount process. I mean, I know there's this unbelievable push to get people to abandon that they're really just trying to peel off Trump supporters, and I just keep trying to say to everybody, let's let's stay in this until we have judges ruling and we see some evidence and we know what's really going on. That seems very straightforward to me. But clearly there's an

enormous effort to shut that down. Yeah. Look, I mean I don't I don't particularly see a problem with if, um, with with taking this to uh to to the courts, as you know, as is the president's uh, you know, in the campaign's legal right to to do, UM I have. I mean, I look, if this is the first election, UM, if this is the first election in America with no fraud, as as many in the media and on the left UM are trying to tell us, I would be very

very surprised. UM. I think that, you know, to establish the pattern of fraud, frankly, you have to go back either years or months, um, to see what the Democrats had been doing from kind of going from state to state, filing lawsuit and and and getting rules changed to make it easier to do so. I mean, I don't think I think you have to be an unreasonable person today to uh to say with a straight face that, um, you know that we wouldn't have any kind of election security.

We shouldn't, um, you know, we shouldn't demand a voter id when you vote. I mean, that's the dumbest thing I've ever heard. You know, you need them right well, but but doesn't it Also it raises suspicion that you know, it's funny to me because Democrats never really do the well Republicans commit voter fraud. They don't do the counter accusation, which just from a you know, that would be an obvious move, but they don't do it because I think they know, Man, no one really believes that that voter

fraud is a Democrat thing. I mean, the culture of the Democrat Party and the and the absolutism that's at the heart of so much progressivism means that they feel justified in playing these kinds of playing these kinds of games and cheating when you know, if you if you look at the elections where there has been cheating, it's usually in favor of a Democrat. So and that's established. Look, look, Republicans like guns, they like voter fraud. So it's you know,

it's it's a it's it's kind of like that. But but really, um, you know, you go back and you you establish that Democrats have been working to loosen these laws and too really too to make it possible to commit voter fraud. Like everything that they've done over you know, frankly, over the last let's let's say, over the last several years having to do with the twenty twenty election has been has been oriented towards making sure that there are

that there is as little election security as possible. Well, that's what I was going to say to you, I mean, and anyone who's paying attention whenever there's something. And by the way, voter voter ID. The Supreme Court has already ruled that voter ID is a valid state concern. It's not racist. And know all these things, you hear, the Supreme Court already ruled them out a case in Indiana

that the Supreme Court took up. Um, But they still will say these things and at every opportunity, even when there should be a universal agreement that a voter protection is for the good of the whole system. In the process, Democrats always oppose signature match, oppose clearing out voter roles, oppose I d A. I mean, you go down the list, right, So so that's so, that's the so that's the story.

I mean, I was actually, um, I was heartened by Rudy Rudy Giuliani's presentation the other day when he kind of walked through this, but what he missed is he missed us that at every point, you know, at every kind of point of alleged voter fraud, that that um, you know, the ability to do that was was created, was created by by Democrats in terms of rule changes or law changes or or things like that, you know,

especially in places like Pennsylvania. Um. So, so that's that's very much part of the story that I think it's getting that it's it's sort of, um, it's sort of being being forgotten. Um. But yeah, I mean, look, we can't live in a we can't live in a country, we can't have any social cohesion whatsoever if a significant chunk of our citizens believe that, no matter who they vote for, the results are fixed. Um. I know what you know, I know what that's like. My family knows

what that's like. Um. And you know, I'm sure a lot of your listeners know what it's like to live in a country where you know, oh, it doesn't matter who you vote for because they're going to fix it anyway. Yeah. And we're speaking of David Reeboy political commentator or national security analyst here, David. You know another thing that that's

come up though. Tucker on his show last night talked about Sidney Powell, and he said that, you know, they invited her on the show, she won't come on the show. She had I should say, she has not yet come on the show, and they wanted her to just give them some of the evidence, and she keeps. My understanding is as of this morning, she said, well, there is an affid David that that she shared with them, you know,

a sworn affid David. But what do you think, because I'm seeing a lot of for the first time now feels a little bit like there's a circular firing squad that's happening here on the right, where we're going after each other on this when we really should be going after the truth. I don't think there's anything wrong with Tucker asking somebody who's part of this natural conversation to say,

show us your evidence. I also think that somebody else, you know, in this case, Sydney Powell, has a right to say, Look, I'm really busy doing a lot of things trying to bring these legal challenges. But you know, it seems like people are picking sides on this when I don't understand why I don't. I don't see what the sides are to pick. Look, I mean, yeah, I

mean I agree with you. I think at the end of the day, I think Tucker had the better argument here between between the two because I mean, look, Sidney Powell is an adult, and she's a great lawyer, and she you know, she is under no obligation to answer questions that will give away the game, right, So if Tucker will ask a question and she'll that, will you

know that will put the legal case in jeopardy. She can say that, she can say, you know what, I know the answer to that, but you know, because uh, you know, because I don't want to you know, I don't want to answer. She doesn't want to show her cards at this stage. Sure, right, so so so on that. So I don't understand why she wouldn't go on, because it's like, would you rather have the exposure of being on a widely watched um TV show or not have it or instead have Tucker say things, you know, say

things that are undercutting your case. So I think it could have been really easy for her to go on, spend three minutes or five minutes saying, look, this is what I think happened over the course of you know, she could have said the same thing that she said frankly at the press conference, and and and and we would have been totally finn. What did you think? I gotta ask you, David, what did you think of the press conference? Look, I thought it was I thought it

was Jerry compelling. I you know, I see some friends and colleagues, you know, especially on the right. I know the media, you know, the media is to do what they're going to do. Um. But but some folks, I mean National Review and some of these other kind of establishment conservative place places, they went completely nuts about this and they they I don't know what press conference they were watching. I thought, for example, that that Rudy's case was pretty compelling, um, in terms of in terms of

a public performance. You know, Uh, some people are you know, some people on the right are saying, yes, yes, this is only you know, the real show is in the courts. Yes, the real show is in the courts. But it's also in the court of public opinion. So they're in the position where they have to do both. They have to

manage both very well. So they have to keep the public informed enough to bear with them until the legal stuff goes through, and then they have to then in court make you know, make that case very compelling in a legal way. So they're really walking a uh, they're really walking a tight rope. I thought the press conference was was good, especially Rudy's portion where he just kind

of outlined this is how it happens. And and frankly for anyone who's been following politics for you know, for for years or decades, like, yeah, that's exactly how it happens. You know. Um, there are there are are There are a lot of questions here about um about fraud that

I think are legitimate. Now. On the other hand, too, as you see some stuff bubbling up online, um, and uh, you know, there's there's a conspiracy theory about some weird software called scorecard and hammer that that is kind of complete nonsense, and it's dispiriting to see people who have good reputations who are buying into it. Um. Yeah, if there's someone's going to say that votes were changed by a software, I need I need like real proof right

before I need something. I'm like, oh, okay, that's real. I'm not taking that on faith from anybody. I don't know what's going on here. Yeah, yeah, yeah, And and what is kind of dispiriting to me is that, you know, kind of hasn't shaken my head all day? Is that really? On both sides of the political spectrum, you have a lot of folks who have kind of forgotten or forgotten how to weigh evidence. You know, So if I if, I, yeah, it's all about the political fight. It's all It's all

about who wins at the end of it. It's not about how we get there. And I think that's particularly troubling. But David will have you back to see where we are on this and uh, hopefully things hopefully we just get to resolution and answers that I just want a resolution with answers and I can handle that. I know you feel the same way. Follow David David reeboy here, folks on on social media wherever you can, and David really appreciate you joining. Man, My pleasure talk to you

sim you're in. This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast. I I know we talk about how journals are the worst on here a fair amount, but it's it's important. It's important that you recognize that the journalistic establishment in this country has completely betrayed its mission and cannot be trusted and does not deserve either your trust or your respect. I think you need to know that. And I really I've worked with them around them, I've been I've worked at CNN. I mean, I've I know how this stuff goes.

They are absolutely in the tank, not just for the Democrat Party, but for the destruction of their own profession as a means of advancing Democrat goals. There's there's there's no sense that they have of something being too shameful for their profession as long as it helps the Democrats. And this is why you get these these kind of

grand standing moments. Part of me is almost saddened by it, because I wish we had people who were just dogged guardians of the truth and really just wanted to get the facts and get the answers that people need and present them as information, not as editorial disguised as information. I really wish that exists. It doesn't exist. But here it's got a funny moment where in the West wing, you know, in in the act, in the place where they hold the press conferences in the West wing of

the White House. Uh, you have this kind of a scene breakout when they try to when the administration tries to make a straightforward statement about what's going on with COVID, Play clip one, thank you? What is going on the private collections? Every one of you work? Why are you underviding democracy? Why are you why? Why? It's like good? These are adults. These are people who work in information collection and distribution. They're supposed to be pros. Why are

you undermining democraty? Why are you undermining everything that's good in the world. Why are you committing trees in a dat humanity? Oh my god, get a grip, people, What is going on with these journals? Unbelievable, unbelievable. This is this is how This is how they are. So that's the way they approach Trump administration officials. This, this is how they talk to Biden. You know, they're gonna the

treatment that you saw for Obama for eight years. You're going to see that degree of being a toady, being an obsequious little throne shiner for Biden. Their hearts aren't in it the same way, but they know that's the journals know that's what they have to do now. So just get ready for that. I know, it'll be a little bit of a surprise, because come on, Joe Biden, who really thinks this guy? Come on, right? But they loved Obama, and they really did. The journals were in

love with Obama. It was irrational. It was there was this this exhilaration that they had every day knowing that Barack Obama was president because you know, the journals share this kind of leftist, progressive, utopian ideology and they thought, oh, Obama is going to make the world perfect, which was it's sort of sad. It's funny, sad and a little scary all at the same time. But they're going to

do similar things for Joe Biden. And an example here is the way that they will toss questions to him that are just an opportunity for him to spew back his own talking points. At the journals, who are going to be the eager little scribes of whatever the Democrat narrative. Maybe play a team. You have said that lives could be lost if you don't start getting briefings from the Trump administration, and now here we are more than two

hundred and fifty thousand lives could be lost. Given that, how do you justify not taking legal action to get the briefings that you say are critical, that you say you need to take a lot of time. Take time. It's not going to speed it up considerably in my view. And in the meantime, I am hopeful that I'm going to be able to get cooperation from our Republican colleagues in the Senate, the House, as well as the governors. To build a consensus is how we perceive when we do.

But why not use every tool in your toolbox to get the information that you say you need to do your job and to do it effectively on day one? I'm making a judgment based on many years of experience and how to get things done with the opposition. Why won't you soon the Trump administration to get the briefings. Notice that going to the courts, going to the courts in this way is completely fine within the process, and

it is fine with it. If he wants to do that, go for it, right, But you don't get what you want from a from a political party or from the from the president's office, go sue him right away. The journals jump right to that. But Trump having a legal team that's suing over vote counts, and that that is

a terrible threat to democracy. So trying to use the courts to demand access to classified information when you're not even yet the president elect totally cool, but suing to make sure that we know how many votes were counted that shouldn't have been counted and all the rest of that, that is basically tyranny, and the country's falling apart because of it, and oh my god, we're all going to die, right, That's that's the way the journals set all this stuff up.

They're just dishonest, folks. There's no there's no effort whatsoever to present information in a way that does not benefit their side. And the more you embrace that conclusion, the more you keep that in the back of your mind as you read news, as you consume news, the more the better informed you'll be.

with his friends, that's okay. Look, he is phonier than a vegan at a steakhouse and he just proved it, and that video just undid him. But there's a fix to all this, Whether it's Laurie Lightfoot or Newsom are the mayor of DC. Simple fix. If you're a government official and you shut other people's businesses down, you don't get paid because if they lose their paycheck and you're the one responsible, you don't get your paycheck. Let's see how that goes. I'm not being facetious about it. There's

no skin in the game of these government officials. They're making big decisions about the peasants like us who have to live by their rules. But they don't live by them and they have no consequence. They don't lose a dime of their salary. They get taxpayer money and it never goes away. Let that go away. Let them suffer some consequences financially. You're going to see this change. I

want you to remember all that. First of all, I think that Mike Huckabee's kind of corny dad jokes, and you know he leads into him man, he owns it. I'll say that about him. He doesn't back off it at all. So I'm fine with it, you know what I mean, Because because he owns it, because he goes with I can't even do a good impersonation of a corny Mike Huckabee joke because it's a whole next level. But he's really good at them. And I will say

this too, just as an aside. I had friends who used to work on Mike Huckabee show at Fox News, and they always said he he is a super nice guy and this business. I really respect that he treated his staff very well. That you'd be surprised some of the people. I don't think that's surprising to you at all. I think Mike how coolbe comes across as a really nice guy, but you'd be surprised some of the folks who really aren't what they present as on TV, including

some of them on our side. But Mike is one of the good ones. He's a good dude, and I do find his jokes sometimes I don't laugh at them, but I'm still I'm still amused by them. But on the important point here, the hypocrisy that you've seen on display, I can tell you this right now. Many of the loudest voices we're going into Thanksgiving week next week, and many of the loudest voices that you will hear, many of the people out there who will be the first

ones to say, how dare you? How dare you gather with more than is it six people? Is it ten people? Remember, there's no basis for this other than what politicians on a whim decide. Right, There's there's no science that says six people is safe, eight people is dangerous, or ten people is dangerous, but five people is safe. That that's

not how it works. All of this is about personal risk tolerance, risk mitigation, and understanding that there's there's no perfect safety and I just would much rather live in a country. I'd much rather live in a world where I'm in charge of my safety to the greatest degree possible when it comes to things like this my personal health, instead of thinking that government bureaucrats give a crap, because

they do not, and they keep showing you that. Look at some of the primary lockdown advocates in politics, I mean, really think about this for a moment. Cuomo, Newsome, Lightfoot, the mayor of Chicago, Governor Whitmer, Pelosi, Feinstein, every single person I've named there, Oh de Blasio in New York, every single person who is out in front demanding lockdowns, who's out in front demanding that you obey or else, They've all been shown to be big frauds. They've all

been shown to be phonies. So what I want to tell you is you're preparing now. I know it's not until next week that we have Thanksgiving, but what I want to tell you as we're getting ready for it, is that those same people they can you can be assured of this. On Monday and Tuesday they will be telling you to be scared and not to gather, and then on Thursday they're going to do whatever the heck they want in their own homes away from the cameras. I assure you of that. This is part of the

disease of the mind that is liberalism today. They can always separate out their preference for policy from individual action. Right. What they want all of you to do is one thing. What they want to do themselves is another. And they don't see that as a disconnect. They think that they should be allowed. They're special, they're important, and they still should advocate for all the good policies for everyone else.

So you know, they can sit there, and if we're gonna use a metaphor here, they can sit and eat that pint of ice cream every night, But they want to tell everybody else that they have to do it not that they should. They have to eat healthy, so they take the pint of ice cream out of your hands and they feel good about themselves in the process.

This is a This is common for collectivists. In fact, this is one of the appeals of being a leftist is that because of your public promotion of certain policies and certain ideas, because of the way that you advocate for things that you think, in the aggregate will be better for everybody, it excuses you. You know. An example of this from history would be the period of those of you who are who are interested in Catholic Church history.

You talk about the indulgences, right, well, what is an indulgence? And if you go back you learn about them, you find that it's a way to reduce your punishment after you die, a way to reduce your time in purgatory, and it often involved making a donation. Right, so, you would be punished for your sins in the afterlife. But if you wrote a check, you'd and by the way, it wasn't a check, I know, it would have been actual.

They weren't operating with banks the way that we do, but they would have you know, if you made a donation of land or a donation of you know, gold coins or whatever. But with the onset of the idea of purgatory in the eleventh and twelfth centuries, that purgatory was this in between place where you would have to suffer for your sins and then eventually and everyone was going to go to purgatory because unless you were assayed, unless you were perfect, unless you were Jesus himself, so

they would have you give money. So there was the plenary indulgence, and then there was a partial indulgence. Right, So if you've got a plenary indulgence, that meant you went straight to heaven, and a partial indulgence meant, well, you spend it a little less time in purgatory, but you still got to suffer a little bit for your sins in this life before you can go to heaven. Now, this was all meant to help people get to eternal salvation in some ways, at least by church doctor at

the time. In some ways, it's perhaps best known because of its usage during the Crusades, which, as you know, is one of my favorite historical period. I find the whole period of the Crusades and much of what I talk about on this show in our Shields High and History podcasts with Lepanto, which is coming out soon, Malta, with the Siege of Constantinople in fourteen fifty three, even the Real Dracula, which we just did much of that is very much an extension of the Crusade. It's just

a continuation of that period. We think of Jerusalem and people think of Richard the Lion Heart and think the First, the Second, the Third Crusade, but that whole period really extends and ends around the time of the Renaissance, or really in the in the mid to late Renaissance. They're

still crusading going on in one form or another. But anyway, that's that's the leftist mentality on display that if you support the right policies, it's the equivalent of in the medieval church dropping a few gold coins in the collection plate so you spend who knows how much less time in purgatory, so they're comfortable with it. I'm telling you

about this just because I think. Oh and as we know, it also led one of one of the primary reasons for the Reformation and Martin Luther Protestant, the Protestant Schism was because indulgences became so corrupt. Well, it actually corrupts. It actually corrupts liberalism too, to have this mentality. And they're not really liberals as you know, they're leftists. They are they're collectivists. There we don't we need better terms

for the left, I will say that. And the left works as abroad as a sweeping but we should come up with something more. I think progressive in many ways is the most useful because that is their Their goal is just incrementalism toward the goals of the left all the time. I mean that that's the strategy. It is an incrementalist it's really an incrementalist totalitarianism. I mean, talk to any democrat you know, and you ask them what they want this country to look like in fifty years,

and it's some kind of a utopia. But to get to that utopia, it has to be totalitarian in scope, right, a place without I think of the John Lennon song, you know, imagine all the people all that stuff. Oh yeah, imagine a society where everyone has everything they need, everything they want. There's no violence, we're all equal, we all have equity. But that utopian vision is only achievable by

the elimination of freedom and individual choice. But in the meantime, you got a lot of libs back to my initial premise here, that will be telling you that for Thanksgiving you should be doing the following. And I can assure you it's a guarantee that they will not be doing the same thing. Not all of them, but a good number of them will say you can't gather more than six people, or you have to wear masks indoors in

your own home. They're not going to do it. You know, I live in a place in New York City where there's mask and social distancing hysteria. I mean they do. There's there's little places in the elevator where your feet are supposed to go, as if that's going to help the social distancing, that's going to save you from getting

the virus. You know, you were standing four feet seven inches from somebody, and then if you stand on the little places where your feet are supposed to go in the elevator, you're going to be standing six feet away, oh six feet away. Then you're going to be safe. And you know this, And I understand there's a lot of pressure to attack people who say these things, but the six feet rule is entirely arbitrary. There's nothing about

this six feet rule that is scientifically based. They just said, what's a good amount of distance, Let's go at six feet in my gym where I work out, which I know any day now they're going to shut it down, and I'm just gonna go back to, you know, eating mac and cheese and gluten free cookie dough all the time. I know that's that's what's gonna happen this winter. It's gonna be job of the buck all over again. I've just started to turn around. The gym has been working.

I've been getting stronger, fitting better into my clothing. Everything's been going in the right direction. They're gonna shut down the gym, so I've got no social interaction, no gym, no places to go and be around other people. Really hard to not just netflix and nap and eat too much when that's the situation, as we all know. So I'm just telling you the the oh, the mask mania

in my building. I see people all the time who I know are the Karens who complain about this, and if anyone's mask drops down in front of them, they go and they cry to management right away and everything else. But I've seen them without masks on. So this is a constant thing. This is all throughout the leftist mentality. People become addicted to the virtue signaling and a part of that, then is that they have a blindness to their own hypocrisy and to their own disregard of these rules.

And as long as that is so widespread among liberals, as long as that is something that you're going to find among millions and millions of Democrats, we won't reach a point of sanity where we can all say enough is enough, We're not doing this nonsense anymore. That's the big challenge, that's the big problem as I see it. So the hypocrisy point, Yeah, it's fun to dunk on

libs like Gavin Newsom for being such big hypocrites. And even if it means we get to hear a fun, you know, old grandpa joke from governor or former governor Mike co Coulbee, I don't think the people should be called their titles, their government titles when they no longer have them. I know somethink I'm I'm off on this one,

but I feel very strongly about it. Anyway. Mike Coulbee, I like that he's calling this out because it is a big problem, and it's the reason why these stupid rules persist, because the people that want to enforce the stupid rules on you are the ones, the ones most interested in enforcing them against you are the first ones who break them behind closed doors and don't care. You're in the freedom mind. This is the Buck Sex and

Show podcast. And they want to call the Green New Deal socialism, and you know what our answer is, what do you call one hundred years of tax breaks for the oil and the gas and the coal industry. They're saying this, give us the same breaks pangent solar and all electric vehicles and plug in hybrants and reserves technologies, and we will bury the fossil fuel industry. That is what burry the fossil fuel industry. That's a Senator, Marquis.

That's a senator who's saying burry the fossil fuel industry. I'm just I just want to point this out as we get ready for the possibility of greater democrat control and government the possibility. Don't yell at me, but anybody who tells you they want to bury the fossil fuel industry is a moron. Really, it's not possible to be intelligent or to know anything about the fossil fuel industry and think that it's the enemy. As I've told you

on this show countless times, but it bears repeating. We are naturally because of the efficiency of the technologies that we have always decarbonizing in our fuel sources. You can look from the beginning, we were using you know, wood and then coal, and people would even say whale oil for a while, but that was a relatively limited period of time for not a whole lot of industry. But the Industrial Revolution, we went from coal, and then we went to gas, and then we went to natural gas,

and now you know, we're on the way. We're doing all these things. We're making these moves that are going to be less polluting, less carbon intensive. It's already happening. But the left treats fossil fuels like the enemy. There's a reason why until recently, Exonmobile was pretty much the most valuable company on the planet. We don't have a modern economy, we don't have a modern world without fossil fuel.

They just don't seem to understand that there's this idiotic zelatry around this where the facts, the reality does not seem to matter to them. They simply don't care. It's more fun to just talk about this. And then you even get stuff like this where the climate is now an issue of justice, as if there's a social justice element to client him a change, which is also I mean, I'm actually trying to follow this, and I'm wondering what.

Here's AOC though, the grand strategist of the Green New Deal talking about climate justice and reproductive justice play fourteen. It represents the power of indigenous communities, organizing, the power of young people, organizing, the power of the Movement for Black Lives, organizing showing that climate is intraceptional with every one of our needs and demands. Yeah, it is tied to the treaty rights and liberties of Indigenous people in

the United States of America. Climate action is tied to reproductive justice because we can't talk about poison water without talking about how so many people across their country, acrossive country, are denied the right to build a biological family because they've been poisoned by their own water. What I mean, I honestly, sometimes AOC speaks. First of all, there's a lot of a lot of Marxist tells here, you know, the Marxist part of it. And as somebody who finds

reading about Soviet totalitarianism and Marxism just fascinating. It's like deep diving. Some people watch those shows about psycho killers and getting inside their heads, you know, Mine Hunter and

that sort of stuff. For me, that's reading biographies of Stalin and understanding the Soviet Revolution and the way the the first the Checha under the Czar and then then the various iterations I'm sorry, the Okrana rather under the czar, and then the various iterations of the KGB would would operate. I mean that to me is if you want to a vision into the darkness of human the human soul, you just have to look at what happens when Marxists

actually get their way. But one of the tells, one of the ways you always know what's going on with the Marxists is they use this pseudo scientific language to discuss the human condition and political realities. You know, they they dress it up with slogans, and so when you have somebody like AOC who's talking about about the inter intersectional climate and just throwing the word justice in there,

a lot justice in there all the time. They never really think about what the implications of what they're saying will be, or they don't understand it, but they know that if they say certain things, other people who have also been brainwashed with the similar Marxist claptrap will nod their heads in unison. I mean this is there is a cult like aspect to all Marxist theory, and you see it with someone like an AOC, and it's something you should be wary of, something that is worthy of concern.

I don't know why the I heart when I do the iHeart Media almost sound like the Expedia guy. Now you know what I mean Spedia

dot com. You know what I'm talking about. That they rhymes, so it makes sense. Yeah, I give free advertising too. Maybe I'll send us a gnome or something. That'd be kind of fun. Actually, we'd have a freedom hut nome. I think I think that'd be cool. What would we name the gnome? Obviously we'd let you name the gnome, would be Producer Marks Gnome produce. We call it Producer Mark's little helper. I figured you were just gonna call a producer Mark or something. M nah ever knows your

producer Mark is. Um. So, what's going on for the weekend for you? Before I get into the roll call? You got anything planned? Do you do you do some of the Thanksgiving cooking? I think I've asked you this, but I forgot No, I don't do any of it right now. I mean my in laws usually host and they love hosting and cooking, so I let them do it. I just enjoy it. That's very nice. That's very nice. Um.

And you're where are you on turkey versus chicken? I mean, I like turkey, I wouldn't call it my favorite meat, and I prefer dark beat of either chicken or turkey. So my my sense of this is that turkey there's there's like a there's a tiny zone where if it's really well executed, there's there's the perfect amount of dunness and moisteness, and it can be really good if you get there. But I have had so many times, especially at buffet's and you know Thanksgiving buffet stuff like that,

right when you go to an event. I've been to events where there was like a Thanksgiving buffet. Dried out turkey is cardboard, man, It's cardboard, but it's not hard to do. That's why I go for the dark meat because it will never be dried out. Yeah, the dark meats. The dark meats, the better, the better move. And we already said your favorite side is stuffing, so is mine. So yes, we did have that. That lovely Team Buck

member wrote in about green bean castrole. I will say greenme and castrole sounds good, But the more I thought about it, the more it sounds like this is just cream of mushroom soup with some green beans thrown So, you know, it's a little bit like saying, yes, like Buck, don't you like colieflower castrole? I'm like, what is it? They're like, well, it's mac and cheese with some colieflower thrown in. It's like, well, yeah, that that would be good. Actually,

I mean that delicious some green beans and make them delicious. Yeah, I mean cream of mushroom soup is a great thing. One of my gotos when I was a kid, I used to make, once I learned how to make myself, grilled cheese and Campbell soup. Who game changer, Game changers, there's a time of cheese and tomato soup. I was one of my favorite things in life was it was just a grilled cheese with American cheese and tomato soup.

This is what happens. I get. I get hungry at this part of the show, so I start thinking about food all the time. But I'm just saying, though, grilled cheese are so much better. Throw some bacon on there, some tomato. It's very, very important everyone. Just a pro tip for everybody. One of the most overlooked parts of

food that you're gonna make for yourself. I'm not talking about fancy stuff, but food you're gonna make for yourself, whether you're cooking a burger or on the grill, or or on the you on a pan, on a stovetop. Certainly true for grilled cheese as well. People forget you need to season the bread. The bread is a part of the whole thing. A lot of people just go, oh, I'm just gonna slap my grilled cheese on there. It'll

brown up whatever. Yeah, but you know, season it with a little a little bit of salt, a little bit of pepper. I also would say, if you've got a little basting brush, a little bit of a base, some nice olive oil, because a grilled cheese doesn't need super high heat, so you don't need one of those higher smoke point heats like avocado oil. Or I use bacon fat whenever I cook red meat. I keep rendered bacon fat and I use that for red meats, which producer

mark pro tip. You will like that sounds amazing. Yeah, that's a good that's a good move. But yeah, I'm telling you right now. So for those of you, if you're gonna be doing well, I guess no one's gonna be well. Some parts of the country they might have cookout stuff for Thanksgiving. Our Florida audience is like, bluck,

we can do it. You're around. But I think you know, if you if you take the bun of the burger, you you definitely want to season it and put a little put a little olive oil on it, and think of that as that's part of the dish that you're cooking and not just like oh I'm gonna slap the bun on at the end. I'm telling you it's a game.

And you can even put a little bit of a garlic powder, you know, experiment a little bit with it, but don't let the bread just be the thing that you're holding it with, whether it's a grilled cheese or a burgers. You know what I'm saying. Producer Mark, Yeah, I've never heard of seasoning the bread before. That's very interesting.

I always like slather it with butter cheese. That's a version of it, but like a little salt and pepper on your grilled cheese beforehand, I think really really spices it up a little bit and makes it makes it better, and you know, and then people realize, wait, I can also put you know, other things that, like I said, garlic powder is a good move. Anyway, That's that's my little advice for all of you. Because when I make burgers, because I have to use gluten free buns, which tastes

like cardboard always, they're horrible. I've I learned to do this and then I realized, well, when I make normal burghers for other people, you know, for normal human beings that can digest normal food unlike me. I'll make them the I'll make them the bun with this kind of extra care. So if nothing else, you take this from today's show, Season your Bun, Salt pepper, a little bit of oil, a little bit of butter, Season your Bun. That should be I could write a book Season your

Bun and then like life Lessons from the Freedom. Yea, you know the Season your Bun by Buck Sexton. I see no problem with that title. Just think of the artwork a load. Oh, we can have so much fun. We went there. I know, family show. It's a family show, all right. Here we go, Todd next up here? First up here, Hey Buck, I'm a major fan of the best hair and political news, and I've been a daily listener for a long time. Producer, Mark, you have a fantastic taste in music. Now, I what do you like

in music? What? What brought this song? What did we I probably talk some smack about about? What was it? Billy Joel and you and you you body slam me for that one? Is that probably something like that? I always say, like Coldplay in the Chili Peppers. I respect your Coldplay move I know that it would be fun the same way that people love the trash Creed. Some people will trash cold Play, and I'm like Creed was great in its day. I don't care what anybody says.

Ever since I saw Coldplay live, you know, it's like they burn. It's like they pulled me out of a burning building. Like I can't say anything bad about them. They were so good live. It's like you can't talk smack. I'm glad you're a believer now, yeah, no, totally, I'm a no. I tried to do a believer thing, but that's too cold Play. Wouldn't you're not a believer? Is he still doing music or isn't Didn't he start his own church or something? A church of Justin Bieber? Why yeah?

Or like, isn't he Is he really into some church where they I don't know. I'm just saying I feel like Justin Bieber. I don't keep pop, I don't see what's going on. I don't keep open celebrity stuff either. I know he's got a lot of tattoos that because whenever I try to do new searches sometimes it'll be the you know, Justin Bieber is like the what do you call it the tabloid thing that'll shot? I think the Daily Mail, which is a UK based paper, is

a great is a great news site. They just have a lot of like and here's a celebrity in a bikini, which, of course producer Mark I immediately avert my eyes because I'm focused on the news, of course, and you don't want snow Princess finding anything out. Yeah, no, I can't.

I can't be staring at those Kim Kardashian bikini photos that they have on that site pretty much every day, like you're really like, I go there and look at it's like, oh, they've got the doctor Fauci story talking about the lockdown, and then it's like a hero or Kim Kardashian. No, and I blocked that. That must be what pays the bills. Yeah, oh, I'm sure those get

a ton of clicks. Now. I know not much can be done at this point, Todd writes, but why aren't people talking more about the Trump votes that were discarded destroy not just the illegitimate cast and created Biden votes, but the genuine Trump votes that are no longer around to be counted. There are tons of videos of people burning dumping and trashing Trump votes. But that's not talked about very much, if at all. Why isn't this a

bigger talking point about the election being stolen? Well, Todd, we'd have to see how many votes have been either trashed or lost or stolen. You know, that's a big part of this. You need to have enough votes that it would change the outcome. You know, this is, for example, what I would say what I was saying oh along about the Russia collusion delusion. They would say, well, that they did something on Facebook, and because they did something on Facebook, we all should think that that changed the

course of the election. Right. This is what the Libs said about Trump winning against Hillary in twenty sixteen. And I was sitting here, Remember I used to use this, this metaphor of it's like you would pour. If I pour a cup of hot water in a swimming pool, you could say that I've I've made a change in the temperature, but it's not measurable, right, I mean at some level, at some level of sort of micro temperature. Yeah, for a second, there would have been a different but

I didn't really change. And that's what they did with the Facebook ads, with Russia collusion, a similar idea at some level applies here. Now. I think it's much more substantial when you're talking about the discarded Trump votes, But it needs to be enough that it would actually change the temperature of the pool, if that makes sense. And I don't know, I don't know if we're going to get there. I just don't. I don't know if we're going to get there. But where we should try, we

should find out, we should absolutely know. I mean, there's a reason why it's worth looking into all this, As I've been saying. If we can go through the absurd three year long special Counsel Russia collusion garbage, with what that did to the administration, with all the man hours, the tens of millions of dollars of taxpayer dollars spent on that, and we can go through that, we can spend a month finding out what really happened in this election.

That's fine, And there's really no counter argument to it other than why do you support Trump? He's Hitler? Trump is not Hitler. Randy hey buckshields high. So I want your opinion on this. My dad graduated from the US Naval Academy, served to World War Two. I also graduated from the US Naval Academy and served eight years in the fleet. Despite all of that patriotic upbringing and background in my life, seeing the corruption and voter fraud on this election, there's no way that I'd risk my life

for a country that was such a fraud. Nor would I ask a young person that didn't make such a sacrifice you served in the CIA, if you were young again after an election like this, would you join the CIA again? In their lust for power? I don't think the Democrats understand the depth of the damage they're doing to this country. You can't have a volunteer military unless you have volunteers. And when I said that their lust for power, the Democrats don't understand the depth of the

damage they're doing to this country. The sad truth is they don't care. All they want is power. Everything else be damned. So again, after this election, would the young buck sex enjoy the CIA? Randy? I joined the CIA very very clearly for one, you know, in response to one thing, and that was the attack on this country

on nine to eleven. I'd never even had never even occurred to me to work in the CIA until that happened, and I knew that that was going to be a largely at least the fight against Alcado was going to be largely an intelligence driven operation. I think everybody could tell that right away, because it's a small non state group, small you know, as opposed to the Chinese military, right, It's a small non state group and dispersed all over the world. So I've never regretted that decision. I'm pleased

that I had the opportunity. I might even say proud that I had the opportunity to do some very small part to try to track down and defeat al Qaeda operatives in places like Iraq and Afghanistan. And as for whether I would still do it now, yeah, absolutely. I still love this country. I think it's the greatest country in the world. I know we're having a tough time right now, and I understand that people might feel like the election has shaken their confidence in our system in

a way that's well, it's tough to shake off. But first of all, we have to continue to fight for this country because there's no better place. There's nowhere else to go, and America will endure. We've been through two World wars, we've been through a civil war, We've been through. I'm just gonna be honest with you, and I know this isn't this isn't going to get all the listens

and the clicks. And there are other people out there that are, you know, screaming into their microphones every day and talking about you know, tyranny and everything else all the time, not about the COVID tyranny, the tyranny of you know, the libs or whatever. We're gonna be Okay,

We're gonna get through this. There are better days ahead, there are victories, there are there are moments of real pride in this country that lay ahead, and I think, just just take a deep breath and know that you're still in the greatest, freest, most powerful, most worthwhile nation state experiment in the history in the history of this planet, which is a pretty special thing. So I hope that brings you some comfort this weekend, knowing that that's all

still true. So, Randy, I understand your frustration with what's gone on right now, But yes, in fact, going to the CIA, and to this day, I still wish I'd gone to them if I had known what it was going to be, what it was going to be like to be alongside our military instead of within the military. I wish I had served in that capacity instead, if I could go back in time. So I think that tells you, tells you a lot You're in them. This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast more road call to

hey bucking producer Mark. With all that's going on in the past four point five years, four and a half years of evil perpetrated against Trump and now with the greedious corruption and fraud in our elections, at what point is this finally going to be called for what it is? Outright treason? That word seems to be scrupulously avoided by everyone in all media. Isn't all this actually treason? Thanks for all you do for both of us, or thanks for all you both do for all of us, Maureen,

thanks for writing in. Treason is a pretty specific term, and you know treason would involve, well, if you're talking about it from a statutory standpoint, it would involve assisting an enemy military at a time of war. As for getting to that point, I mean, who were going to really hold accountable for this? We need individuals that engaged in the treason, or rather engage in the voter fraud if we're going to use the proper terminology, and who

did it? I'm waiting to hear who did it? We need more information, we need more data, and we also have to be we have to be sure because we have to be right. Unlike the other side, we're not just trying to use all of this as a weapon, as a thumb in their eye. We're not just trying to spite them. I actually want to know.
