Republicans Turn On Trump... Again

Make no mistake American, You're a great American. Again the Buck Sexton Show begins. He's a great guy, no Ericans faced huge challenges before World War Two, put a man out on the moon. This environmental catastrophe bearing down on us maybe the biggest challenge yet. But how do we beat it? How do we beat it? We do it by what we've always done as Americans. We invest in science, in innovation, and in American workers. That's how we're gonna do. We walk out one. We need to make sure that

housing is being legislated. How do we feel right? What does that mean? What it means is that Howard assets and horribility and Howard guarantee to having a hole potable four someone else's privileged to earn ad We've already had five just this year. Five black transgender women kill violently in twenty nineteen. So rags, it must it must, it must end, and the fastest way to end it is end the Trump administration. Welcome to the buck Sex, and show just a little taste here of how the Democrats

are crazy. Democrats are pushing ideas there with climate change and access to housing. You got Ocazio Cortez, you had Elizabeth Warrenson stuff, and these are these are unserious ideas, but they are pushed as though this is the future of this country. And then Joe Biden talking about a tragedy, the five numerous tragedies, five people being killed, which is terrible. What does that have to do with Trump? Has nothing to do with Trump, Absolutely nothing to do with Trump.

But someone dies somewhere. It's very sad, it's very bad. Maybe you can make some kind of argument about a rise in discrimin nation and a hateful rhetoric, and there you go. You have your transition to Trump. These are the most prominent Democrats, among the most prominent democrats in the country right now, and the stuff they talk about is either insane on its own or insane in how it is the fault of Donald Trump. Everything is Trump's fault.

That's one of the defining traits of Trump to arrangement syndrome. Everything that's bad in existence can be blamed on Trump. All you have to do is just find that little transition. Today is the anniversary of Detail'll speak more about that later on in the show. But World War two, Elizabeth Warren says, not as big a challenge as climate change.

I mean this, my friends, those of you listening all across the country and listening on podcasts, and how can anyone say that and not feel like a total moron? I think that's fair to ask. How could you say

that climate change is a eager challenge? Then a global war, a true or a conflagration that included a holocaust of six million Jews, eleven million human beings murdered in the Nazi concentration camps, sixty million people soldiers and civilians killed throughout the forty five to sixty million, depending on the estimate that you want to go with the rise of

true fascism not OMG. Trump tweeted something mean He's thouch a fascist, the rise of actual totalitarianism, which then led to another totalitarianism staring at the rest of the world with nuclear weapons by the way of the Soviet Union. But that's not as big a challenge as climate change. This woman taught at Harvard. People, Okay, let's really take a step back for a moment. This is an Ivy

League law professor. And what she says, she'll be there'll be she knows uproarious applause for saying something that is just utterly fatuous and feckless and stupid. Democrats are talking about all these things they want to do, none of which they really want to do. And the whole pitch is that they're the adults that Trump is the baby. Trump is the one who doesn't understand anything. Meanwhile, all the things that they talk about are just that talk.

They're never really going to get the Green New Deal through, at least not the way that they've talked about it up to this point. I can't figure out if they want to impeach the president. It's a moral duty, but we don't know if we're going to do it. I thought it was a moral duty, but you see, Democrats don't really what moral duty means. I suppose it means it's the thing that you are to do, irrespective of whether it feels good or helps you out, or it's

a question of morality. And then o'casio cortez jumping and housing as a human right? What does that mean? Housing is a human right? How much housing? Where? What degree of housing? Who pays for it? And she says that access a very kind of coded word in democrats circles. Access. Access means you give me what I want, means you pay for it, that's access. If you don't pay for it, If you don't give to me what I want, I

don't have access anymore. Well, it's really just a code word for the socialist style redistribution of wealth, isn't it in so many cases and so many different arenas, and access is more important than the right of someone to make a profit. Okay, So then there just won't be people building new homes in areas, you know, because they have families to feed to the builders, the construction workers,

you know. Okazio Cortez is deeply and shockingly ignorant of how economics works, which is funny because she has an economics degree. But you know from bu I'm sure that they studied a lot of a lot of marks. And then in some ways the most absurd, the most underhanded, Joe Biden, who is just desperate to establish his credibility with the left wing base because he knows he has

the establishment right now. He knows that the DNC and the Democrat machinery is already behind him, so he says that the fastest way to end the problem of black transgender women being targeted is to get rid of Trump. I would be fascinated. And if we had a real press corps that wasn't just a there weren't just a bunch of lapdogs for Democrats either trying to get in power or who are in power, they would ask questions like, what does Trump have to do with five murders of

transgender minority women in this country? Exactly what is that? And have there never been murders of transgender minority in the past? Of course not. And is every murder of any person terrible or tragic? Yes, of course it is. What is the tide to Trump? What is this? How can he say this again? How can just like with Elizabeth Warren, how can Joe Biden speak these words and not feel like a moron. Well, I mean Joe Biden, Elizabeth Warren, I think is a fraud, but a savvy one.

I just don't think Biden's very smart. I never have, I never have, and he certainly doesn't make me think he's any smarter when he unveils his speaking of the Green New Deal, speaking of Elizabeth Warren telling us that climate change is a bigger, a bigger challenge than World War two, sang it on the on the D Day anniversary. Here is what Biden says about climate change, play too.

We take trastic action right now to dress the climate to the aster facing the nation in our world four severe storms and droughts, rising sea levels, warming temperatures, shrinking snow cover and ice sheets. It's already happening, and science tells us that how we act or fail back in the next twelve years will determine the very livability of

our planners. Yet today becausident Trump denies the evidence in front of his own eyes, hides climate science produced by his own administration, and actively works to roll back with progress we've already made. You can't be a person of any judgment or wisdom or historical knowledge and believe what

Joe Biden just said. It's not possible. Maybe you can be smart, you can be quick witted, but you cannot be a person of good judgment and think that what Joe Biden said is is intelligent drastic action to address the climate disaster? What climate disaster? What is the disaster? Where is this disaster happening? The rising sea levels? Where in Florida, no California, no New York, no, where is this happening? I would I would like to know what

the heck Joe Biden thinks he's talking about. Now. I understand that this is for an ad and he's been this has been written for him by other people. But we are seeing now what the other side is offering up as a in their view, a kind of antidote to Trump is hm. They view this as a necessary corrective for America, and the stuff they are putting out there is utterly nuts. And if journalists were really doing their job, they would ask real questions about all of this,

But they don't. They all buy into climate change because it's a it's a it's a psychological fashion. It's a way of showing how smart and cool you are, and how much you care, man, and how much you're part of the team, and you're like this existential purpose where all the good people are with you, and it's just idiocy. What do they think that I want to drown, that I don't want future generations to have food to eat or water to drink, or we're all gonna be underwater.

And of course, but this is how can anyone say this stuff and not feel dumb? This is a pretty scary place to be, isn't it. Ah, And they think Trump is the problem. They're all you know, Trump's are over in the UK right now and they're trying to come up with different ways to make it sound like this is a disaster. Did you see him and his children and they're just walking around like they own the

place in Buckingham Palace and the hysteria. It's exhausting. I can't imagine getting as upset over nothing as Libs get upset over everything. When it comes to Trump, everything is a disaster. Everything requires draft stick action or else. The livability of the planet, as Joe Biden said, maybe at risk. And I don't just mean the climate change stuff. I mean his tweets, the way he talks to reporters the way he speaks about the Mayor of London and Megan Markle.

Who the heck cares about Megan Markle? And I'm just gonna say it, I don't give a rotten crumpet about the British royal family. And I do not understand any Americans who do. You're entitled to it, but I don't get it. Who the heck cares? I mean, is it is really the the Anglo the Anglo version of like the Kardashians or something. At this point, it's just I know, it holds them together in history and all this whatever. Yeah,

the Kardashians hold us together. You know who cares? Some of you who are spitting out whatever you're drinking right now, you know what I'm saying. I mean, this is ridiculous. But instead of just focusing on the substance and covering Trump's visit there as a head of state and man it meeting with other other important officials the UK, though I think Boris Johnson apparently refused a meeting with her.

What's up with that? Boris? Trump should have known better than to reach out of his hand to that guy. He's always seemed like a bit of a bit of a loose cannon. But the ideas that we're hearing on this side tell us a lot about what's coming. The ideas that we are while the president's over there are meeting with the Queen of England and the build the bergs, the illuminati just kidding, he's not doing that? Or is he? While he's over there doing the stuff that he's doing.

Over here, we're hearing all these Democrats run around and I'm at a point now or I think that we have to be wartime conservatives and just say I'm not going to pretend that these ideas are normal and rational. They think that because they think that we're crazy. They think you're crazy because you don't believe that someone saying that access to housing is a human right? What does that mean that the government can can script you into building homes for people that don't have jobs and don't

have any resources. I mean, where does that access stop and start? That World War two is not as big a challenge as dealing with climate change. This is this is from the party that wants to be in power. My friends, remember that going forward. Remember that. And we've got more on the immigration situation. I got a lot for your team, so stick around. I will be back

in just a moment. My empathy and my sympathy is with the families who've had to flee the deadliest countries on the face of the planet, who are met with the greatest cruelty and in humanity in this country's history. We have the capacity to be able to take care of those families. Betjo is also somebody who blathers on like a moron without any real pushback from the media. Since we're talking about how Democrats just say all this

stuff and this is this is idiotic. You know. You you can say that you don't think that a wall at the border is going to work as well as Trump says, but it will work. It's not an iotic. We already have walls in places. I mean, you look at the things that Trump was running on and they're real tariffs against China. That's a real thing you can do. You can argue whether it's a good idea or not. Stuff the Democrats are talking about, it's just nuts, just bunkers.

World War two not as dangerous or not as challenging as climate change, universal housing as a human right. You know, the obsession with the Russia stuff, and are we gonna on peach? Are we knocking on peach? But just impeach them already, get it over with you, your cowards. But Peto is saying great that these migrants are being met

with the greatest cruelty in our country, country's history. Look, our country has, like all countries that have been around for a few hundred years, engage in some pretty cruel stuff. I don't think I need to remind Beto of some of the darker moments in US history where we have been incredibly cruel to our own people and to other people, you know, to them, to our fellow Americans as well

as the people outside of our borders. The greatest cruelty, I mean, just at what point does the exaggeration you know, where are all the fact checkers, where is all the old one? Gosh, Trump is lying all the time people, what is this? Oh that's an opinion? Yeah, you mean the stuff that Trump gives all the time, and they fact check him on. By the way, PolitiFact, which is a joke today, fact check of Obama saying that you can buy any gun any time, including online, and said

that it was mostly it was mostly false. No, no, it is pants on fire falls. It is as false as false gets. Why why wouldn't they say that Obama was you know, liar, liar pants on fire false because he's Obama. It doesn't get more false than that. You can't buy not anyone can buy any gun any time online. That's just a lie. Remember we've talked with this in Brazil. But the fact checkers are politicized, the journals are politicized, the newspaper are politicized, and they're owned by the left.

This is the province of the left. If it wasn't people like Betto when they say that migrants are being met with the greatest cruelty, the greatest cruelty. They spend about twenty four hours in detention, get process, get brought food, get brought blankets, and medical care, all courtesy of you, by the way, the taxpayer, and our brave, hard working border patrol. And then they're let in the United States where they get whatever else they can get, the greatest

cruelty in history. I mean, this is where I asked, you know, is Betto an idiot? You have to start ask this question about democrats fraud or idiot? Democrat fraud or idiot, because the stuff they're saying is indefensible. And you know where's where's our media, where the firefighters of our democracy is supposed to be asking the tough questions. We have a real problem at the southern border. All Beto wants to talk about is now does anyone even

care what Betta says? Buck? Oh, totally care, because you just have this Beteau voice that you want to use on the error. And if you don't at least get him to be like somewhat of a factor the election, You're not gonna be able to talk like Batou. I know, it's like totally a bomberer. Bro makes me so sad. More on the immigration thing, Republicans are turning on Trump here, I mean with friends like the Republican Party got asked, you know what, does Trump even need any enemies? So

he's got plenty of those. Raheem Kasambil joined to talk about the UK because he's got a fancy British accent, So who want to hear from him on that? And then Democrats destroy private citizens for fun and for politics. That's coming up too. If I'm a terrorist, I want to come to this country to his harm, I'm not gonna buy airline ticket. There's too many checks, too many database checks before you get a ticket. I'm not gonna get a visa because the visa security unit does numerous

database checks where you get a visa. If I won't be a terrorist enter this country, I want to take advantage of the border. Now this is in chaos and come across the board away. Twelve or twenty other million people came to this country. This is a national security crisis. And God help us if the wrong people across that board because of this chaos, and this country is going to go to another nine eleven. No one wants to talk about it, but this border is vulnerable, and it's

a real possibility. The border is not secure. We know this. There are huge problems going on at the border. Trump is trying to deal with this. Trump is working now to get in Mexico to be a real partner in this process, and that means that he's going to have to use carrots and sticks. He's saying that this is an issue that's important enough that it would be worth the economic pain, it would be worth the difficulties that we would come up against here play clip twenty three.

But even beyond the laws Mexico shouldn't allow millions of people to try and enter our country, and they could stop it very quickly, and I think they will, and if they won't, to put tariffs on and every month those tariffs go from five percent to ten percent, to fifteen percent, to twenty and then to twenty five percent. And what will happen then is all of those companies that have left our country and gone to Mexico are going to be coming back to us. And that's okay.

And yet Republicans are now saying that they will try to get a supermajority to thwart the president on this one. You know, this is this is a classic moment of why the GOP just can't get it done, can't seem to figure out how to get accomplished what they promised all along. So I I just it's such a frustration. You know, Democrats for the most part, when the when the part when when the president, when Obama was trying to mobilize on something, the Democrats are with him. It's

a Republicans who stood in the way. Fine, Republicans have to worry about their own side, They have to worry about getting mccained meeting somebody from within their own ranks. Goes, Yeah, I'm going to decide to be the one that I'm not going to go along. I'm more important than this cause I'm not going to go along with it. M Okay, where does that leave us? Where does that leave us? Trump is saying, look, I did tell me that Mexico east in control here, doesn't have power. That's not going

to fly either play twenty two. But I think Mexico will step up and do what they should have been done. And I don't want to hear that Mexico is run by the cartels and the drug lords and the coyotes. I don't want to hear about that. A lot of people are saying that Mexico has something to prove, but I don't want to hear that they're run by the cartels. You understand, you report on it all the time, A lot of people do. I would be a terrible thing.

Mexico should step up and stop this onslaught, this invasion into our country. Mexico should be helping us here. Mexico could be a much stronger partner on this than they have been. But we know where the Democrats are on this one. They're not on board, They can't do everything for Democrats is against solving the border problem. They don't want Trump to get a win, especially going into this election year. They don't want Trump to look competent on negotiation.

Imagine if Mexico caved to this tariff, if he had a unified GEOP support behind him. Oh, you mean that a tariff would get a result that people said it could not get. Oh what would that mean for a negotiation with China? Wouldn't that then, whether you agree with what we're doing with China or not, wouldn't that become at least a data point, if not a case study for what could be possible if in fact somebody was dedicated enough to a negotiation that, yes, involves a bit

of risk and involves a bit of arm twisting. That's what a lot of negotiations do. You know. We seem to think that our president should negotiate always in this position of how do we make the other side happy? We don't want to be too rough, we don't want to be too mean. How do we get the other side to feel good about this? Trump's version of negotiations. Look, this is what I think is a fair deal. If you don't do it. This is what's going to happen.

Different approach, but it's the approach of somebody who hasn't been a politician his whole life. It's the approach of somebody who's a businessman, who has had to look at the bottom line, who's had businesses rise and fall, things that work, things that go bankrupt. Dealing in reality, not dealing in this you know, ephemeral gobbledegook, messy world of politics where you know it is whatever you say it is.

Mitch McConnell, certainly, cocaine Mitch. Sorry, cocaine Mitch. All right, pardon me, gotta get his name right, Cocaine Mitch is like, Look, Democrats obviously don't want to do anything here either. So it's at a minimum Trump taking this action, and then if Democrats go along against it, If we could just have a unified GOP on this would show the Democrats are not just opposed to Trump getting a win, they're opposed to the issue being solved. Period. They like, what

is happening at the border. One hundred thousand plus a month, folks, every month, like clockwork now, one hundred thousand, one hundred thousand, that's what we're looking at a million for the year. We have a president who is in the position he's in because he ran on immigration as a hardliner, and now this is what we're dealing with. Plate twenty one. Cocaine Mitch got some words to the Dems. It's way pasttime the president's request for assistant from our government be met.

I mean, we walked out up here after we did this supplemental and the Democrats insisted on taking out of the supplemental they just passed in the House yesterday anything to address the humanitarian crisis at the border that would be funded by Health and Human Services. So look, they need to take their heads out of the sand and work with us on our side of the border to address the humanitarian crisis that their resistance has contributed to. Mitch is right, Mitch is right. I know people say

mitches so establishment on some stuff. He's real strong though. He's been great on judges. Give Cocaine Mitchell high five on judges. He's been great on judges. He's he's pretty good on the border lately too. I gotta say he likes to take the fight to the Democrats, just like Tony Montana would. Well right back, just how nasty, vindictive and crazy are people in the mainstream press. A lot of journals, journalists out there, How vicious are they willing

to be? What do they see as their role in society? What do they see as their purpose? They would tell you if asked. I'm sure journals, the journalists would tell you that they is to bring information to the masses, to inform the public, to be guardians of democracy. Oh and to speak truth to power. That's one of their favorites. It's so self aggrandizing, isn't it. It sounds so good speak truth to power. In reality, most journalist caddle power.

They like to be close to it, They like to be around it, they like to touch it, to feel it. They'd much prefer to be in the good graces of the powerful. And that's one of the reasons that there was such outrage when Hillary lost, because there were so many journals who felt like eight years of Hillary was going to be the crowning period, the crowning achievement of

their careers. And they had worked long and hard to prop up the Clinton reputation, the Clinton name, and they were going to finally get to cash in on it. But you also see that among the journalist class, there is a willingness to be truly nasty, to ruin people, to ruin lives, to take away many nights sleep from private citizens, to humiliate publicly those who have no power, but merely serve as an example, merely serve as the

cautionary tale that libs want to tell. Essentially, if you step out a line, this can happen to you too. If we have to make an example of you publicly, we will. And there was just one such case over the last few days where this guy and I don't I won't name him because I don't have to name him.

It doesn't really matter. This guy who allegedly I believe he disputes this, posted a doctored video of Nancy Pelosi's seeming drunk and you know, talking about things seeming drunk, and it got a lot of attention, a lot of shares and everything else. And this is very upseting a little because Nancy Pelosi is at least officially the single

most powerful democrat in America. She's third in line for the presidency, and she is not necessarily from a brand perspective, Obama is probably the most powerful still, but from a power power perspective from getting things done within government. Nancy Pelosi is the number one Democrat right now, and so you mess with Pelosi at your peril. That's the message the journos want you to have. When was the last

time you saw an opopiece on Nancy Pelosi? By the way, when was the last time you saw journalists really dig into her background, her family, wealth her. They are always always doing everything they can to run interference for her, to prop her up, to make her seem like she is the queen of the Democratic Party right now, and she's supposed to be untouchable. And this guy violated that precept.

He violated that hands off order that the journals have on Pelosi, who they I think many journalists actually fear her, but a lot more suck up to her. So this guy posts a video of Pelosi seeming drunk. There are other videos of Pelosi where it's just edited and making her look like a stumbling fool that's because she does stumble a lot, and she sounds foolish. But this one, I think was I try to find it, it's been

taken down. Think about how frustrating that it's been taken down on all these different sites taken down off of YouTube taken down. I try to find it, couldn't and I wanted to see, you know, how heavily edited this was and all this other stuff that they talk about. So that's where the Daily Beast comes in. The Daily Beast, if you don't know, is another one of these websites that exist for reasons that I don't even think they

could articulate. At the Daily Beast. It is indistinguishable in its editorial approach the kind of stories from one hundred other left wing dot com style sites right all about intersectional social justice, advancing liberal agenda items, hates conservatives. That's the Daily Beast. It's not advancing anyone's knowledge of anything, does a lot of unserious, crappy journalism, and yet it's still around because it's well supported by Barry Diller over

at IAC is a very powerful media magnate. I A. C is a huge company, owns match dot com and Tender, among other things. So The Daily Beast thought that it would be a worthwhile usage of their journos time to track down this private individual, who, it turns out, based on the story they published, is an unemployed African American forklift operator. Lives in the New York area and owns a couple of small Facebook pages, and they decided to out him, and then felt like they were heroes for

outing this guy. They thought that they were doing some favor. And then to justify this on a journalistic level, because really this was just callous and vindictive. But to justify going after a private citizen for making a what is really a parody video of Nancy Pelosi. And remember the Democrats, they wanted us pulled down there. Anderson Cooper was, Oh, he was so huffy and upset because Facebook wouldn't take

down these doctor videos of Pelosi. As if they're supposed to be the arbiters of what's posted in good taste about politics. Well, liberals do want that, though they do want Facebook to do that. The journalists are not First Amendment advocates. They want their own First Amendment. They want the freedom to say what they want. They don't want others to have that freedom. Though, So what did they do to say that this was somehow a journalistic endeavor

outing this person? How did they come upon that? Oh, that's right. They said that this shows that it's not just Russia that can engage in it's not just Russia who engages in disinformation. So they doxed this guy, right, They doxed him, They outed him, put his stuff out there, and essentially track down an internet and Internet troll. And you know that's what it is, That is what they

did here. Why would they do that? Why would they put this guy in a position now where I'm sure he's gotten death threats, his career might be in jeopardy. Oh and by the way, the Daily Beast called up Facebook and just said, hey, we want to find this guy. And Facebook reportedly turned over information about this guy's account

to help the Daily Beasts identify him. Don't think for one second that these social media entities won't play favorites and release the information they have in order to trash Republicans, conservatives, or anyone who gets in the way of the left, anyone who gets in the way of the left wing agenda. Don't for one second think then, because you know they will. You know that your so called private information will magically

leak to reporters. It's just a matter of time, trust me, until someone's running for office and their Facebook instant messages to their now ex wife magically find their way not from the ex wife, magically find their way out. And you know that in journal land, this surveillance apparatus of the social media platforms out there is going to be turned for partisan purposes. It's already happening, but this is

an instance of it. This guy offended Pelosi, went after Queen Pelosi, so a well funded, large website hunted him down with the help of Facebook, and now this guy's life is forever altered, though he says that's not even his Rich Lowry over at the New York Posts pointed

this out too. They cited quote Instagram posts of his using an abusive term to refer to a woman who allegedly kicked him on the subway, detailed his employment history, talked to his ex girlfriend, delved into his guilty plead to a domestic domestic violence charge and an outstanding warrant for his arrests on a probation violation. They did a full on OPO research deep dive into this guy. He's not a public figure. Why they do all that? They

want to send a message to everybody else. You think you can just be an anonymous person who makes videos that mock democrats. You think you can spread anti Pelosi propaganda with impunity just because of the First Amendment and oh no, oh no, the big bad Democrat machine will come for you. A private person is no longer safe

from the CNN. Look what they did to the woman who had the you know, the Russian Facebook event or wherever they went on in her house, stood in her front law and confronted her as if she was like a bad person, didn't do anything wrong. CNN threatened to out somebody that put out some other stuff that they didn't like that was, you know, anti left wing. They do this all the time. Now. These people are a disgrace. I mean, journalists are increasingly vicious little partisans, vicious activists.

It's like they all work for media matters. It's like they all want to be the most woke and destroy the most people to show just how dedicated to the left wing insanity they really are. Our special relationship is grounded in common history, values, customs, culture, language, and laws. Seeing the extraordinary alliance between the American and the British people, it's the greatest alliance the world has ever known. It is this deep special relationship and partnership between the United

States and the United Kingdom. That ensures our safety and security and the safety and security of others around the world too. That is a relationship we should cherish. It is a relationship we should build on. It is a relationship we should be proud of. We love the Brits. We know this. In this country, there is there is a special relationship between America and the anglosphere. It does feel like our cousins, so to speak, in these other countries, Canada,

the UK, New Zealand, Australia. These are countries where, first of all, any American who goes from what I understand, feels very immediately welcomed in at home, and culturally it's very similar. But we have as a country, we have a truly a special relationship with the anglosphere because of that of those linguistic and cultural similarities in the shared history.

Particularly noteworthy I think right now that you have the president in the UK and you have Teresa May and President Trump saying very exactly what you would expect, but nonetheless very strong, very warm words about the relationship between these countries on the anniversary of D Day, then there are some very worthwhile remembrances analyzes going around today of just what it would have been like at that time to have been dropped off on a Higgins boat under

heavy enemy fire. And in the case of what was it Paul Duhak, where there's a particularly difficult fight with elevated German machine guns and machine gun nests, that first scene I think captures it very well in Saving Private Ryan, where you have machine gun fire opening up on boats,

people getting hit left and right. A long, hard slog after being csick, which I've always I don't know how many you've ever been s sick before, but it is debilitating if you think that you're a tough guy and you're you know, you're a big tough man or whatever, or a lady, and you get seasick and you are humbled because you're just beer and it's it's kind of like your worst hangover ever, except you didn't earn it. There was no fun beforehand. That's kind of what's being seasick,

but with much greater nausea. Even just thinking about it right now, even just thinking about the times I've been seasick, makes me start to get a little queasy. But I can't I can't even fathom being on one of those Higgins boats and going through rough water and getting you know, getting seasick along the way, and then getting being told sprint a couple of hundred yards across a killing field set up specifically with fields of fire just to cut

down and destroy all all possible soldiers everybody. And to have run through that and seeing your your brothers in arms getting hit left and right. It's it's a truly incredible testament to American bravery, courage under fire. And there's a reason why d day an invasion of Normandy has such a significance in our history. It's also very significant to note that you know, the Brits, the Canadians, they're

right there with us. The Canadians, I believe, actually took one of the very hardest beaches largely on their own. It's something I don't want to say if it was Juneo or gold or because the World War Two historians in this audience blow blow my World War Two skill

set out of the water. If you want to talk about sixteenth century Renaissance wars between the Islamic states and the Christian states of Europe, then we can maybe throw down, But those the World War Two historians in this audience well exceed my knowledge or many of you out there. In fact, my friend Emily Zanati over it the Daily Wire, who used to have on the show regularly if you were recall, she is, I believe an a an actual World War two historian rights histories of World War Two.

But it is the D Day. It is D Day, and it's it's worth noting how for these different countries like the UK, the relationship is never really in doubt. There there is a bond between the United States and Britain that I think will be around and be special for centuries to come. And it is because of those those ties of history, but also the English common law that is the basis for our own system of the well.

We could speak for hours about just all the things that we borrow from England is like our great grandfather culture or something, you know. I mean, England is a country that we've borrowed so much from. So it's with that backdrop that I find it's so it's so funny that the media is, oh, my gosh, you know, Trump is terrible, and look what he's doing in England, and how many people could even define can even separate right

on their heads. The difference in the United Kingdom, Great Britain, and well we know England is just the one country of England, right, but the United Kingdom versus Great Britain. The United Kingdom, I believe is England, Scotland and Northern Ireland. Is that, Producer Mike, can you check? Can you fact check me on this one? I can't get this one wrong. That's the United that's the UK, and then Great Britain

is like everything. Great Britain's all the stuff that they they have, Producer Mike, I need a fact check or else I'm got to get yelled at by the very high expectations of the Team Buck audience for all things when it comes to accuracy. Trump spoke about a possible trade deal with the UK that would certainly be an interesting if that came came about play Club seven. Please. I think we'll have a very very substantial trade deal.

It'll be a very fair deal. And I think that this is something that your folks want to do, My folks want to do, and we want to do, and we're going to get into done. I'd just like to congratulate you on having done a fantastic job on behalf of the people of the United States and It's an honor to have worked with you. And I don't know exactly what your timing is, but stick around. Let's do this deal. Trump wants to do a deal with you.

Can that'd be great, you know, more even deeper, economicize, more, more efficient, more, more prosperity, all kinds of things that can be done here. And this doesn't get much focus at all. Instead, you have people talking about Trump's comments with Megan Markle and all this. This is just nonsense. This is a complete distraction from what really matters. And you also see this this Trump baby project. I gotta I think a trump baby big is kind of funny,

Like it's cute. It doesn't make me think that Trump is a bad guy. It's actually pretty. It's actually pretty endearing. I kind of want a Trump baby, you know what I'm talking about. Producer Mike is this blimp? Yeah, I love it. I think it's sort of and it's like makes him like, I don't know if this the symbolism to me is like, hey, here comes President Trump and where he's all over you. He's like on top of you. I thought it's pretty funny. He kind of looks like

boss baby. Yeah, you know, I think it's totally backfired on him. I think it's totally back front of him too, Like I find it enduring. I finally, oh yeah, I look, Trump's the giant, you know, But didn't somebody stab the blimp or something to destroy it? I did not see that. But when it's surprised me, I think someone's I think some or someone tried to. It's not hard to find a knife around that part of town. I've heard, Oh man, look at you, producer Mike Savage. Yeah, that's a lot

of bad. There's the crime is rising in the UK, and they don't want to they don't want to talk about that. That's not something that seems to get to. And they also had that whole spate of acid attacks for all, which is like one of the most horrendous things I've ever heard of. Yeah, but but Trump is uh is not swayed at all by these protests in the UK. Here, here's there's there's a few things here. What is what do UK protesters really think they accomplish

by showing their displeasure with the arrival of Trump? What is this supposed to do? I mean, I can't imagine thinking that it's a good usage of my time. If I were some lib which in the context of the UK means you're basically a commy right, If I was some COMMI brit and not to be confused with COMMI bear, and I decided to go go protest President Trump? Why what do I think I'm going? What do I think I'm going to accomplish in that whole process? That's really

what I want to know. What do I think is going to come out of this that's going to be a good thing, or that's worth anyone's time? That Trump is never going to be allowed back in the UK, or that it just seems It just seems like such a waste to me. And that's why the media is focused on it. I think is just they're they're always they're always looking for the negative with this president. It's it's not enough to oppose him on policy or to disagree with his ideas. It's a it's an obsession that

must be fed constant. The left hatred of Trump is a fire that is all consuming. It has to constantly be giving more fuel. And the protests in the UK as if we're supposed to care about this. I like that Trump swats this stuff away play ten. As far as the protests, I have to tell you because I commented on yesterday we left the Prime Minister, the Queen, the royal family, there were thousands of people on the streets cheering, and even coming over today there were thousands

of people cheering. And then I heard that there were protests. I said, where are the protests. I don't see any protests. I did see a small protest today when I came, very small. So a lot of it is fake news, I hate to say, but you saw the people waving the American flag, waving your flag. It was tremendous spirit and love. There was great love. It was an alliance. And I didn't see the protests until just a little while ago, and it was a very very small group

of people put in for political reasons. So it was fake thank you. When he's calling it fake news, he's saying they're exaggerating this, that the coverage of it is meant to make it seem like it's a bigger thing than it is. And I think that's absolutely true. You know, if I were in a city and the well, I mean, I don't care about heads of state coming from anywhere, but if I were in a city and one of our a British prime minister showed up, Yeah, I'd be like, oh,

the Brits. We like the Brits, just like we like the Aussies, and we like the Canadians. And you know, it wouldn't be the particular politics I think of the head of state from you look, even if Justin Trude when he shows up, I'm like, yeah, he seems like a clown, but ladies think he's handsome and whatever. Yeay, yeay. Canada we like because they're representative of their country and their people, and their policies generally don't really affect us

all that much. So to have some burning hatred of the head of state of an allied country is of a closely allied country, it's just a weird position. It's just a weird way to approach it. But that is sure enough what they what they do. That's what these UK protesters with their fat Trump baby and all this stuff, and the media focus on these protests. One thing, Producer, Mike, thank you for the fact check here. I mean, I was right, but I left one off. The UK is England, Scotland,

Northern Ireland and Wales. That's right. The Welsh, like, what's his name? Christian Bale is Welsh. So if you hear that funky accent when he's actually speaking the way he normally speaks, it's a Welsh accent. And then Great Britain is like all this stuff, all the things put together. Yeah, there's that. So we got Raheem Kassam joining us here in a moment. He's gonna give us his take. He's a brit so he's give us his take on how

this whole thing is going. Then we in the third hour are going to be talking about some more fantastic topics. I'm not even sure what they are yet, but they're going to be as they always are, in depth, insightful, hopefully entertaining. That's the plan for an excellent third hour of the show. So stay right where you are, team, we will be right back. I would say, yeah, I would think that it will happen, and it probably should happen. This is a great, great country and it wants its

own identity. It wants to have its own borders, it wants to run its own affairs. This is a very very special place and I think it deserves a special place. And I thought maybe for that reason, and for others, but that reason it was going to happen. Yeah, I think it will happen, and I believe the Prime ministers brought it to a very good point where something will take place in the NATO distant future. I think she's done a very good job. I believe it would be

good for the country. Yes, there you get President Trump talking about what's going on in the UK. He's got this big visit to our brothers and sisters across the pond over in jolly old England and all the rest. We've got our friend Rahim Kassam joining to tell us just what's really happening here, what's going on behind the scenes and all the rest of it. Raheim, of course, is the global editor in chief of Human Events human events dot com. For their latest raheem great to have you, sir.

What do you think about Trump's visit so far? What matters here? Well, you know, it's gone rather well, Buck, and I think that's much to the chagrin of the usual liberal chattering classes on both sides of the Atlantic. They all thought that Trump would go for this official state visit. Remember that it is the highest profile visit you can have with the Queen and at Buckingham Palace and all the red carpets rolling out, and I think they've thought that he'd fall over and his plants or something.

The way they were talking about it in advance of the trip, and in terms of formality, in terms of all the ceremony and the officialdom that surrounds the trip, it's been nothing short of a ten out of ten. Trump and his entire family have knocked it out of the park. The top issues of trade and Brexit and NATO and defense spending have all been covered. His board agreement on both sides of the Atlantic on those issues.

So I think we might be seeing a resurgence in a sort of UK US special relationship Margaret Thatcher Ronald Reagan sense. But of course, as you know, Britain is now waiting to see who are Margaret Thatcher might be. Now, there was this back and forth with the Mayor of London, and Trumps has cut him down to size a few times. Here's what he had to say about Sadika. But I want to get Raheim your take, because I know you know quite a bit about mister Kahan. But here's what

Trump said, play nine. Well, I think he's been a not very good mayor from what I understand, he's done a poor job. Crime is up a lot of problems, and I don't think he should be criticizing a representative of the United States that can do so much good for the United Kingdom. We talked about it before. He should be positive, not negative. He's a negative force, not a positive force. And if you look at what he said, he hurts the people of this great country. And I

think he should actually focus on his job. He'd be a lot better if he did that. He could straighten out some of the problems that he has and probably some of the problems that he's caused. What's the truth

of Sadiq Khan? Rahim? It's interesting. I mean, you hear the presidents say you are not He shouldn't be insulting me, he said, he shouldn't be insulting a representative of the United States because effectively the president is over there leading as America's diplomat in the world, and fields slighted and rightly so, over the fact that Sadik Khan has done I think now three D videos, several interviews and an op ed in his sort of never Trump Vaine of

trying to stop the President having a successful trip to the United Kingdom, and Trump is exactly can write as well, Carl not just doing in disservice and disrespect to the President and to the country of the United States of America, is also doing a disservice to Britain because Britains don't want to be represented by Sadikhan. London may have chosen Sadikhan as its mayor, but you can get outside of London,

which is politically demographically very similar to New York City. Actually, the respects both to the United States and whomever its president may be is actually rather large. Now. Carton himself is a former lawyer who has represented nine eleven attackers. He represented Louis Farrakhan in his Nation of Islam. Cart has been known to be mixed up with a number

of deeply, deeply divisive groups. Has even recently placed a group that is known for female genital installation at the front and center of an event in London, and all the wildlife, crime and ro already a rave and congestion is going up in London. Public policy projects behind schedule and over budget. This man has been an absolute unmitigated disaster, not just for London, but for the United Kingdom's perception on the world stage, because let's face it, most stories

who go to Britain go to London. Most things that you read about when you read about Britain nowadays, somehow has something to do with London. So I'm delighted, as you say, the President Trump cuts to the far down disize and as we all know from what the President tweeted the other day, that's a very diminutive size. Indeed, Raham Kasan everybody Global eder and chief Human Events human events dot Com for more of his latest Raheem's thanks so much for joining. Thank you. Abu tells us that

this relationship is in some trouble. I mean, it is ironic. It's sadly ironic that ten years ago we would have said that the two most dynamic, strongest democracies in the world, where the United States and the United Kingdom, and both

of us are now an existential crisis. The Brits of course, Britain of course because of the possibility of Brexit and the uncertainty of what's going to happen in his relationship with the Eve of the United States, because of Donald Trump and Trump is um we expect our president, any president on a ceremonial visit, to represent all Americans with dignity,

with grace, and the president hasn't done that. This is not the way that American presidents act overseas, have acted overseas, and frankly, it's embarrassing to see the American president call out people in this savage, brutal political tirade of criticizing opposition leaders in another allied country. All blather, all claptrap, malarkey garbage on MSNBC, which is not surprising to any of you. They're from former Ambassador Nick Burns, who's saying

that both countries. This is the quote. All right, before I get too deep into why this guy's an imbecile, and I don't care how many languages he speaks, or how many fancy countries he lived in an ambassador or whatever, it doesn't matter. What he says is stupid. His analysis is poor countries are an existential crisis. The UK and

America an existential crisis. And then he goes on to say on the American side of this equation, because of Trump being embarrassing, that puts US in existential crisis because he doesn't act with the presidential dignity that we expect overseas because he criticizes an opposition figure. What the president can't say that the mayor of London acts like a punk? The mayor of London acts like a punk. What's the problem.

Why can't we have adult conversations and politics? Why can't the expectation be in an era where we now have constant access to everyone's thoughts via social media and everything can be live streamed. And maybe that the time for all this boiler plate political non speak speak is past.

Maybe we should now embrace a future where politicians can just tell us what they really think and we expect that they will act like human beings and not robots, not you know, not cyborgs that are programmed to you know, I will speak about my love for America at the Constitution like somebody who is not from America. Why he said this, This guy that's going on MSNBC to wax philosophical about how terrible the relationship. The relationship is great in through the UK and in America. You know what,

we're you know what? And this is I got it. A little bit of a of a of a tiff today with some of the people on the on the panel at Rising because I just get so sick of this. We're lowering our stature in the world. We're lowering our stature in the world because of Trump. How so has Trump invaded? Has Trump invaded a foreign country? With sketchy at best rationale and perhaps foolish, foolish ideas about what's going to happen? They're the answers, No, are any of

you listening to this right now? Or are you? Are you sitting here? And because of a Trump specific decision as commander in chief, you have to worry about, you know, realistically, the possibility of casualties affecting friends, loved ones, people from your town, people from your family, anything like that. Shouldn't that be much more important than Oh, does he bow properly to Oh, that's right, He's not supposed to bow. He's the president. That was Obama's deal. Obama went around

bowing apologizing for it. Wasn't apology tour. The media was always trying to cover from. It was an apology tour. Isn't it more important than on the world stage we have a president who is approaching problems from the perspective of I represent Mike Country America. I don't represent the international community. I'm not part of some cosmopolitanist, one world government mentality, and I don't want to do things that

are really bad for my people. You know. To compare, I would say, you compare a Trump to both Obama and Bush's foreign policy, and there is no comparison. I mean, Obama was a disaster on foreign policy. How does it raise our stature to destroy Libya and turn it into a for a while, an Isist stronghold. They actually had Isist training camps. They're beheading Christians on the beach, you know, turn Libya in an Isis stronghold. Now it's like a warring militias and who the hell knows what's going to

happen over there. That was also Hillary Clinton involved in

that one. By the way, How does it make us look good for Obama to sit on his hands and do nothing, to take it upon himself to declare a redline and see area, and to take the mantle of international leadership and and be you know, pushing with the United Nations to get some kind of a ceasefire in Syria and just fail miserably for years than while a half million people die, engage in troop training programs for the for the rebellion inside of Syria that are massive failures,

allow the rise of ISIS, terrorist attacks in Europe, copycat attacks in the United States, all this stuff that's happened. But Obama raised our stature on the world stage. Why because he's because he gave fancy sounding speeches that meant nothing, that meant absolutely nothing. Bush. Oh boy, well intentioned, a good guy, a patriot, he loves this country, but not a strategic thinker, not a guy that really should have

been in the should have been in the role. You know, I don't think he was a bad president, but I think he was. He was Okay, he's a mediocre, and I don't think we should be shy about saying that either. I think most American politicians we should think of as mediocre to less than acceptable. We should criticize politicians in their roles. We should hold them to account. No, I'm not. I'm somebody who was very involved in the Bush era in terms of foreign policy. You know, thanks to President Bush,

I ended up in two war zones. So I can look at this and say, yeah, those are But this talking point year from this guy about how we're an existential crisis we look so about in the world stage. You're only an existential crisis in America if you're an MSNBC watching lib who thinks that having a president who goes around saying that America has made all kinds of mistakes and done bad things, and it's going to bow

and scrape and kneel and apologize to everybody. It's gonna try to make friends with the Castro regime in Cuba, beg Virani and Mullah's, the dictators of Tehran to be our buddies. You know, only only those people think were in existential crisis. But when you look at what has really happened under Trump versus previous presidency so far, to say that Trump's foreign policy is reckless and dangerous and

is undermining our stature is laughable. Is laughable. You know what undermines our stature in the world, starting wars that we don't win. You know what undermines our stature in the world, messing up whole countries and then saying, oh gosh, we didn't know this was going to be so hard. And that has been a bipartisan a bipartisan failure in the mid East and other region stretching back for the

last twenty years. Medicare for all may sound good, but it's actually not good policy, nor is it good politics. I'm telling you, I'm telling you a hundred. That's John Delaney. I love it, man, that this you know, California Democrat Convention thing that they had there. I forget what it's called exactly, but this California, you know congregation of Democrats that occurred. You had Hick and Loopers say socialist socialism

is not the answer, boopo, because they love socialism in California. Oh, man, sure they do. And then you have John Delaney get up there and says Medicare for all is not good policy or good politics. He's right, he's trying to help them. He's telling them the truth. This is a Democrat speaking of Democrats, saying something that is objectively and obviously true, and they freak out at him. They do not they do not want to hear it. They don't want to

hear it at all. You know. I interviewed Delaney today. Only three more, only three more shows. I was about to say, real news. Gosh, that's really a throwback. Only three more episodes of Hill TV Rising for me, folks, Friday is my last day, So those of you who haven't had a chance to catch it yet, you could. I don't know, you'll see me looking very sleepy in the morning. I've I've pretty much been broken by the by the schedule of waking up super early and doing

this show until nine o'clock at night. But I got the chance to speak to John Delaney and speak to him about a whole bunch of policies toy on Rising, and I have to tell you he's a what he's He was a Democrat congressman from Maryland, I think, and he's a seems like a reasonable enough guy. I'm sure he says crazy stuff about climate change and you know, the crazy stuff about a woman's right to choose at any moment of the pregnancy up to birth. You know,

because that's a Democrat. You have to there are certain crazy as a Democrat you have to embrace. There's certain crazy that there's just no way around, right. You have to know that this is the stuff you gotta say if you want to be in the Democrat good graces. You're you're just gonna have to, you know, go along for the ride on this stuff. There's really no way

around it. But then there are areas where you can sort of tell who has ever run a business, or knows how to read a balance sheet, or or just operates in some version of reality and recognizes a lot of Democrat talking points as just that rabble rousing of the of the leftist mob, but not not really policy. And Delaney kind of strikes me as at least from what I got to talk to about today, one of those guys. I was very tired this morning, though, so

I don't even remember much of what I said to him. Yeah. Sorry. You know, once you get in the once you get in the very latter stages of doing a TV show, you're kind of just like, all right, I'm gonna be there and then I'm gonna be done. But the interesting thing about Delaney saying Medicare for all is not good policy or good politics. He's right, let's start with the with the policy aspect of it, Medicare for all. How is this supposed to work? Well? Medicare is not a

true single payer system. As I've pointed out before, there's cost sharing in Medicare, and if you're going to eliminate all of that cost sharing by though, the program would become even more expensive than what Medicare is right now. And I believe medicare part be people have said is effectively effectively run almost like a socialist democratic socialist. But that's a perhaps getting too deep in the weeds right now.

But but Medicare in general, it's very popular with people, but it's popular for reasons that are not necessarily always good. Like most people who use medicare take out twice what they put into it, So it's being built on the backs of future generations and higher taxes and lower earnings and lesser quality of life financially, at least for future generations to pay for Medicare. Now, that's just a fact.

You're going to expand that though, And you're gonna say everyone's gonna be able to get medicare, Okay, Well, then do you expand access to doctors? Do you expand the medical system itself? Because when people have no skin in the game, when they don't have to make decisions where am I going to spend my resources? Where am I not? I could have had I could have had ankle surgery, I could have fixed, I've fixed, I've got a deviated septum.

I could fix a broken nose. I got a You know, I go through a whole whole list of different surgeries and procedures and things that I could have that I haven't done for one reason or another. But one of them is cost. One of them is I didn't want to write a check for however many thousands of dollars necessarily to have one thing done or another thing done. I didn't want to do some of these procedures and fixes, And but if it was all getting paid for by the state, I might say, yes, sign me up, no

risk to me. You have to incentivize good choices. And look, this is another part of the healthcare system not everye wants to talk to talk about. You also have to incentivize people trying to be healthy. Now, I know that that there are a lot of people that you know. This is not saying that if someone gets sick, man, I've gotten very sick. I'm not saying that you can

prevent getting sick. But you know, things like don't go skydiving, taking bong rips, eating a giant bucket of general so chicken, you know, five times a week, right, I mean, there are some things that you probably isn't general, so chicken delicious something you probably shouldn't do bad for your health. But if you're not going to have to deal with the financial consequences of ill health, that's at a macro

social level, this is not a good idea. That's why having other people pay for all of your health careney, it's not good. What we should have in this country is catastrophic health insurance, right What we should have is

a tiered catastrophic health insurance system. That's true insurance. We should stop thinking that our first expense is going to be the car payment and eating out, and start thinking that, you know, you've got to put aside some money for your reasonable medical expenses and maybe tear it so that people that make a certain amount of money, they're catastrophic coverage kicks in at this level and other people in

another amount of money. Just like the tax system, and in any legitimate medical expense above X dollars goes, it goes into the actual insured you know, that is where you dip into the insured pool and you go from there. But that's it should be insurance. What we have now is just the redistribution of healthcare under the rubric of insurance. And that's not that's not what's supposed to happen. That's just dishonest. It's not what we're being told it is.

But that is what it is, this whole ocean that you're gonna show up and you're gonna pay twenty dollars and see a doctor. It's gonna be a great doctor, and that's all you have have to worry about. That's just not realistic for everybody. That can't be shared by everyone. That's not going to happen. We don't have enough of that. We don't have enough resources to do that. People say, yes, we do, buck, No, we don't. I know plenty of

people have to wait long time to see specialists. My specialist network in DC right now, and I have health insurance stinks. Stinks. Doctors I have access to in DC second or third tier and I have health insurance. If I've really got a problem, I end up going to a doctor that I'm like, look, here's you know, here's my visa card. As scary as that is, that's what you have to do sometimes. But on the bad politics

of it, and this is where Delaney's obviously correct. On the bad politics side, you're gonna you're gonna take away one hundred and fifty million Americans private health insurance plans. Democrats, you really think that's you think that's a winning strategy. Tell them, sorry, this plan that's seventy percent of you like, it's gonna go away and we're gonna put you on the government plan. Oh okay, do any of you who have private health insurance listening to this wish? Oh? You

know what? You know what I had? Instead a one size fits all mandated by Washington DC federal government healthcare plan where there's no one trying to watch out for costs, where there's no competition whatsoever for policies for business. It's just whatever the government tells me I'm gonna get. I mean, you know this is where you start to say, are they gonna, you know, hand out vouchers and tell us that we also can wait in breadlines? If this is crazy?

This is crazy because all buck but look at the different healthcare. Yeah, there's a healthcare system in Canada. There is also a private health insurance market there. And I ask, yet again, do you want would you want to be really sick? Would you want to be in bad shape? In Canada? Or would you rather be really sick in the United States? Look at cancer survival rates, and there's a number of indicators for how the healthcare system performance

here versus in other countries. And if you want, if you want Nordic government services, well then you better be prepared to pay tax rates sixty percent of your income. Everybody, everybody you know maybe a cutoff at like twenty grand. That's it. Everybody else you know above that SI So Delanney's right, but he gets booed for it. That's kind of a summation of the modern Democratic Party. If you're right, they boo you. We have a moral obligation now to

investigate this precedent. Impeachment proceedings will give us more legal leverage to be able to get the information Congress needs to get to the bottom of what his administration has done while they're in office. The black and brown community is overwhelmingly in favor of impeachment. The Democratic base is overwhelmingly in favor of impeachment. The people who aren't are kind of white people in the middle right, truck drivers.

You think that the president will be impeached, or at least proceedings will begin in the House at some point, but just not right now. Yes, exactly what I feel. Only impeachment gives them the leverage and the mechanism necessary for us to know exactly what has happened and who is responsible for that. I believe that the president deserves to be impeached. They all say it. They're all making a lot of noise about it. You know, Oh, he's got to be impeached, or we've got to use the

impeachment proceeding. Notice how they go into the process again, favorite Democrat trick. Oh, we're not making a decision. We're just putting you through the process. We're not going to tell you what we're going to do to you. We're just going to make sure that you're miserable while we figure it out. You know, there's a reason why we have, for example, provisions like habeas corpus, and there are legal remedies for the government just holding you, just ruining you,

breaking you while they process you. Right, And that's in fact why so much of our constitutional protection is a function of process protection. Because people who are in power often want to hide their real aim. They don't want to tell people what they're doing, and they love being able to rely on Oh, it's just the way we're just going through what we have to hear it. It is just the machinery at work of government, and that way,

nobody's really responsible. Right, This is how the bureaucracy, for example, of a law enforcement agency can become in many ways immune to criticism or immune into oversight. Who's really responsible at the f behind the DJ for what was done to George Papadopoulos and Carter page A, Well, a bunch of people are responsible, and nobody's really responsible, and thus

the system continues on unchanged and without accountability. Who's really responsible for pushing impeachment for well, a lot of Democrats and no Democrats. They talk about it. They say they want to investigate. They say, okay, what is he going to be impeached for? Well, they need to figure that out. Still, right, is it? What is the old line? I was kept wrong? The line from Alison Wonderland. You know, sentence verdict first trial later or sentence first trial later. This is what

the Democrats, This is what the Democrats like to do. Well, well, they know he's guilty, and they know that they have a moral obligation to punish him for that guilt. But they first want to go through a trial because they're not going to jump to conclusions. This is what they say with a straight face. I mean, this is why Democrats are crazy. This, this has become a mental disorder.

The whole Russia collusion thing really has turned into, you know, the equivalent of people who are are flat earthers or conspiracy theorists of one kind or another. There are no facts that will penetrate the bubble. There are there are no ideas that will make them reevaluate what they've already been led to or led themselves to believe. I was happy to see that there are others. You know, I tweeted out a few weeks ago about how if what

they did to the Trump campaign isn't spying. I need to understand then, how the media has been writing about the spying on Martin Luther King Junior for a long time, and now William mcgern over the Wall Street Journals written about the FBI spying. What's it difference between surveillance of

Carter Page and Martin Luther King. Well, this is so important because the reason that the media jumped out of their shorts the moment that Attorney General bar said that there was spying going on, is because spying has a connotation. It's not factually untrue at all. It is spying, spying and surveillance. Surveillance is just fancy French word for spying, so they all fancy French word for spying, same thing. But by saying spying, then it becomes very hard to

control the narrative. Right then they understand that connotation and the flavor of words, the way that words bring about certain thoughts, and there are responses that come along with hearing them. Democrats know this. I mean, when you're in a propaganda fight, you pay very close attention to the

specifics of the words used. But that's why I find it so interesting that the Democrats really tip their hand on this instead of immediately saying whatever you want, it was legitimate, they really didn't want that word to be used because they know about the effect it'll have on

public perception. And I think Attorney General bar has scored some major hits, major hits on these deep state clowns by just being very rational and reasonable and not getting flustered and working through these you know, still one of my favorite things of all times in the press conference he had where that reporter chimes in, you guys, remember this Attorney General Bars talking about the initial Muel report the first press conference he had, and he referred to

something as unprecedented, and as female reporter, I forget you referred to I mean, but like you're just like making these judgments and you just referred to what's happened to the president as unprecedented, and part goes, is there a precedent for it? And she goes no, and he goes, well, then it's unprecedented. Yes, that was that, and his line everybody he dies is I mean, this guy, he's my

He is my favorite government official right now. Attorney I'm just gonna say an Attorney General Barr is my spirit animal. He is number one. He is you know, far and away. I'm like, Trump's amazing for what he does too. But in terms of everybody who's working for the administration, I mean, Pompeo probably comes in for me at number three, but bar Is bar is definitely, you know, number number two. He's my number one trump Man. And he's not even a Trumpster. He's just a guy who understands the bare

knuckle realities of politics in DC. Isn't gonna get flustered. Isn't gonna flee the battlefield. And this is why Adam Schiff, that slimy, low life of a congressman, keeps on trying to come back at Bar with whatever he can. I mean, he called think listen to this, He called him, well, first, let's talk about the spying issue. Playclip fively. Only throw out terms like spying and pretend he doesn't know just

how pejorative of that term is. He is a smart man and understands exactly how incendiary what his allegation is, and it's designed to be. That's that's why he is, I think, falling into such legitimate criticism for acting as effectively a henchman of the president, henchman of the president. Notice notice how shift in that one sound by This

is classic shifty shift. He criticizes Bar for the usage of a term that's pejorative and unnecessary, and then goes on to use a completely pejorative and unnecessary term for Bar. He could say that he's being you know, he's being a partisan for the president, a henchman, you know, for the president who henchman of Trump. Yeah, the term spying is pejorative because all spying without justifications. Here's one shifty shift. If I were spying on Russia right now, is that

a good thing or a bad thing? Well, if I were spying, then I'm spying. If you ask an American buck, spying on Russia is probably a good thing. If you ask a Russian, they say it's a bad thing. Who's really right? Spying exists in this gray area, doesn't it? The act itself is neither good nor bad. It has to be justified. I know something about this because it used to work for a spying agency. And that's where

the Democrats fall apart. Justify this, then let's establish that there was spying because there was now justified all they can't and they know this Inspector General report is coming out in a matter of weeks, and they know that it is going to drop like a piano off the proverbial rooftop onto the Russia collusion line. And that's why Schiff is going after Bar so hard here play four,

because they are stonewalling us on just about everything. It also means that we might not know unless whistle blower step forward, whether Bill Barr is abusing his authority, and beyond the fundamental abuse by trying to exonerate the president on obstruction of justice. And so we find ourselves, i think, for the first time, with an attorney general who really is the president's defense lawyer and spokesperson, and who's quite good at it and has the veneer of respectability to

camouflage what he's doing. He is not the sophist that Giuliani is. He's much more dangerous, and I think he's the second most dangerous man in the country for that reason. He's the second greatest man in the government right now. I love it. All you have to know about bar Is how much the Libs hate him, and how much how much he rattles them. Schiff is rattled by this guy, and you can hear when he's talking about him, because bar smarter than Adam schiff Is. Bar Is a better lawyer.

Bar is tactically the equal of any of these slimy, underhanded Democrats on Capitol Hill. That's why they hate him. He's done nothing unethical, nothing wrong. In fact, he's been a rock star all along, and yet they say things like he's the second most dangerous man in the country, dangerous to the Psycholibs. Maybe democratic leadership in the House they have a new policy meant to protect incumbents people

are currently in office. The policy is no challenger to that seat, No consultant can work with a challenger to that seat. Now. The idea is to help keep the people who are in Congress, make them stay in Congress. Here's the problem. Two thirds of those people in those safe house seats are older, white men. The people who are making the challenges often often female, often younger, often people of color. So people are looking at this new policy and they're thinking, not a good look for the

Democratic Party. Unintended consequences are going to change. Do we think that, I don't know. We'll have to stay tuned all talking about it tomorrow. White men are everywhere, Tony,

Oh my gosh, white men are everywhere. I know. I know she was hitting, But in the context of the segment, there's a reason she made that joke, and it's because notice that reporter that was on CBS talking about how there are there's this essentially a white privilege protection racket in Congress now, and that it's a bad look for the Democratic Party to have in place anything that benefits incumbents.

I would just like to put something out there for the for the left to chew on to think about a little bit, maybe just maybe the reason that there are all of these different incumbents who are trying to pass these rules in the House that will or in the Congress that will protect them is just because they are people who want to maintain their positions and their power. And it's not, in fact a program that is rooted

in racism. You know. Maybe individuals like their power, like their stuff, like to be important no matter who they are, and when they have they have an ability to maintain that, they will do that. But it's not about skin color, you know. They like to make things about race that I think quite often, well I think very frequently, it

actually has nothing to do with race. It's much more about class structure or about basic basic power dynamics that are not necessarily reflective of any kind of racial thinking. But this is also now a this is also a

problem the Democrats have with their field. You have this this party that talks all the time about how it is about is so motivated to help minorities and to push for you know, better advancement and economic justice and social justice and all this stuff, particularly for marginalize and

undermined groups. And there's a very real question, by the way, as to whether in Americans decide today it's really fair to call some of these groups undermined and marginal As a function of law, there are now quote A press groups that have extra legal rights. This is just a fact. There is no legal discrimination against some of the groups the left US is marginalized, but there is legalized discrimination

against people not in those groups. And then and when you bring this up, you're just part of the patriarchy and white privilege and you're a bad person. You're not allowed to have a real discussion about it. But there's this sense of shame that Democrats have. And it's not just this the CBS report I've never seen or heard of before. There is this sense of, oh, gosh, you know,

what are we going to do? We have Biden and Bernie Sanders, two older white males who are leading a Democrat field that has a number of minorities, a number of women, a number of well one member of the LGBT community. So why is that the case within democrats circles? If diversity and inclusiveness or inclusion are so important, shouldn't democrats lead by example? But then you think we'll hold on. Do Democrats lead by example in a lot of other areas of public life? Do they lead by example on

climate change? Do they lead by example on paying more to the federal government in taxes than they have to because they want because they want to show people that that's so important. No, of course not. They like the power to force other people to do things that they think are good, but they don't want to necessarily be

included in those who are forced. So they want to bash Republicans for being a party of older white males and then don't really know what to do when turns out there are a lot of Democrats who are very powerful who are older white males. There are a lot of Democrats who don't want that system to change, largely because they're the people who are in power. But yeah, what white men are? White men are everywhere? There's there is this really kind of pathetic debasing of whiteness that

a lot of Democrat officials have to go through. Now, who are white people like Eric Swalwell, who whoever? We played that audio for you and he was saying, well, you know, yeah, I'm just I understand a privilege. And there's some areas I can't understand. And you know, sometimes I just the self flagellation, not to be confused, not to be confused with flatulation, flagellation that occurs from all these democrats. It's it's kind of a pathetic spectacle. But

it's because ultimately all of this is really nonsense. It has no meaning. Even if you talk about white privilege incessantly, which democrats these days do, and as I've noted for you on this show, that's a relatively recent phenomenon. The whole discussion of white privilege is something that we have to talk about that's just popped up in last few years. The phrase white privilege and the usage of white supremacy as a term, something that I've noted, has expanded far beyond.

You know, when I was growing up, you thought of white supremacy as something along the lines of the movie American History X and Neo Nazis and shaved Head, you know, Jack Boot of Thugs and all that. Oh No, Now, white supremacy is too many white guys in the halls of Congress. Now white supremacy is you not accepting that maybe you haven't earned what you have because you are assuming those of you. Some of you who are listening are white. Many of you who are listening are white.

You haven't earned fully what you have because it came via white privilege. And if you don't accept that, well then you're actually part of the problem. And this is the this is the way the argument on the left is supposed to go. That part of it is not particularly new. I remember being in college and I was told that if you work against racism, then you're okay. But if you merely sit idly by your presence, your mere existence is an enabling of racism. You must join

with the left. You must be an ally, a term they like to use a lot. But older white male Democrats, folks, They the Democrats don't know what to do about the fact that they still have far too many older white males in positions of authority. So I wonder what, I wonder what the way forward for them will be. We will have to see. I have a feeling that they're going to have an older white male who turns out to be their nominee. I still think it could be

Bernie Sanders. I know that's crazy. Joe, Look, Joe, Biden's gonna lose if it's Joe Biden's gonna lose, So I still think it's gonna be Bernie Sanders. But maybe I'm you know, maybe I'm getting to be an older white male myself, and so my opinion on this, I suppose is irrelevant should be pushed aside. I'm just part of the white male patriarchy. We'll be right back. Many of you who listen to this show know that I can be a bit of a skeptic about scientific consensus on

a number of things. One of the areas, oh gosh, don't even get me started, are there's so many of them. One of the areas, why don't doctors know more about gastro intestinal health, gut flora, the microbiome. They know very little about it. It's it's shocking when you talk to most mds about what's going on in your gi track as somebody who has ciliac. Let me tell you, I'm like, hey, why does this thing happen to me? This celiac disease? Doctors like I don't know, you know, autoimmune disorders of

all kinds. Why does the immune system attack itself? We don't know. The best they can do is usually give people steroids of some kind or try to give them something that will dampen the immune response so it stops basically eating at the body that it's supposed to be protecting.

There's a lot of areas where we just don't have the kind of knowledge that those of us who look at the world around us with our handheld supercomputers and our constant you know, photo and video connectivity and man on the moon and all this crazy stuff that we can do. That was a while ago, I know, but or was it? But I'm kidding. I'm kidding. There's no man on the moon truth or stuff going on here?

Or is there? But one area that I always find so funny is nutrition and the impact of different foods on your health. Is milk good for you depends on what day you google? Is milk good for you? Depends on what year you're asking. I've told you before about how I remember as a kid going to school seeing these palettes of disgusting margarine on our lunch tables at school and thinking that's not food. Why are they making? Oh,

because it's better for you than actual butter. Turns out that's not true, And then you look back at the craze of light and sugar free and fat free, and all these different these are all bad bad things. Replacing sugar with chemicals that tastes like sugar is almost always a bad idea, and removing fat from foods is a bad idea. All these things, and now here we have another one. You're like, back, why are you getting to this today? Here's a study on Yes CNN. So is

it fake news? Probably? But the study says the following, white meat is just as bad for you as red beef when it comes to your cholesterol level. I can't tell you how many times I've been in a doctor's office somewhere or heard a doctor say somewhere, limit your red meat, intake eat more, eat more chicken, and eat more white meat. You know, don't eat the dark meat of the chicken. Don't eat the skin of the chicken. It's gonna make you have high cholesterol, or it could

add to you having high cholesterol. Turns out, eating chicken just as bad as eating red meat, according to this study. Now is it true, I don't know. Will it be true tomorrow? I don't know. But the point here is that you kind to kind of make your own choices and learn your own stuff about all of this. If you're relying on our scientific betters, the wisdom of science hashtag science for some of this stuff, you're not going to get an answer. You have to read about it yourself.

You have to figure out what works for you. Eggs, for example, I remember being told, oh, no, you can't have eggs every day. Why not? Turns out that eggs every day does not increase your cholesterol. Really, the worst thing for you is sugar. But there are so many companies that have that make billions of dollars off of products that are largely sugar driven. In sugar basse that that's not a message that anybody wants to get out there. I mean, that is true. Sugar is very addictive and

very bad for you, but people don't get told that. Instead, we're told, oh, you know, don't eat don't eat the fattier cut of red meat. Make sure you just eat the part that you don't really want to eat. I disagree with all that, but that's right eating chicken, folks. Eating chicken can also cause a spike, according to the study your cholesterol. I don't think that. I think it's amazing at this point, given how much heart disease is

a major health issue and really still considered. I mean, a heart disase and cancer are the two biggest health issues in this country, although I think diabetes is getting right up there now, type two diabetes, not type one. But what we don't know about bodies and about health and is it really seems to just always outrank what we do know. There's so many important areas where science is still in its infancy. And if someone can't answer the question at this point whether butter is something you

should eat, whether red meat, whether whole fat milk. I've been drinking whole fat milk for a long time. I can tell you I was doing better with whole fat milk than it was with skim milk, which, as you know, is water that's lying about being milk. Hashtag Ron Swanson hashtag roll calls up next, seeing Bud, it's time for roll call. It's that time to take a chance, just relax and do the role call. Yeah, Facebook dot Com slash buck Sexton. How many of you even remember Cats Stevens.

Actually a lot of you probably remember how much better than I do. Remember my one of my coaches used to say he was a big Cat Stevens fan. He said guys, you're at a party. All you gotta do is just put on the cat and let the cat purr. And I thought that was a cool thing to say at the time. Now that I said out loud, it's kind of weird, all right, Jane Rights, Hey, Buck, heard you say on your show last night you were an

ancestor of the forgotten founder George Mason. Maybe one of the most important He gave us the Bill of Rights. That is correct, Jane. He wrote the Virginia Bill of Rights, which was largely used as a model for the Bill of Rights. And yeah, and I'm sure if my dad's listening to the show right now he often listens, he's saying, Buck, you're absolutely direct descendant George Mason. Okay, I believe it. I just don't really spend a lot of time on

the ancestry dot com stuff Michael Ryan's Buck. Since we know the story Hillary Steel dossier, Muller investigation, shouldn't the Democrat candidates be asked what they think about it and what they would do. Since they want to be president in twenty twenty, they shouldn't get away with pretending it didn't happen and supporting Trump impeachment. Get them on the record, Well, Michael, I don't think it's hard to get them on the

record about this. I think they talk about it all the time, and they are finding different ways or they're trying to find the most effective ways to be the most anti Trump and to bash Trump with the most the most viciousness that they possibly can. So that's something that they are certainly working on, and I don't think it's going to be difficult to get them to say that. In fact, I think they're going to try to outdo one another. Here we go. Marissa writes, Hey, back, my

husband is a huge fan. You're a household name around here. Though I don't get to listen in as often as my husband, I always enjoy what you have to share. He's told me all about your beard, so I feel the need to share with you a product my small company makes for the bearded gentleman like yourself. I founded Wilder North Botanicals four years ago and formulated to beard oils, the Woodsman and the Marine. They smell good, they condition your beard, and there were one hundred percent natural and

cruelty free. And if you're interested to let me know where I can send them. Thank you, Marissa. Well, Marissa, that sounds great, and I'm happy to send you the address of the Freedom hudd and if you want to send a couple of those long I'll definitely give them a shot. Although I really chopped the beard down today, I'll have to post a photo on the Instagram, which reminds me. If you're listening to the podcast, follow me on the gram the Instagram. Buck Sexton is my handle.

It's pretty easy. It's a weird name, easy to remember. There are other buck Sextons, though, believe it or not, I'm not the only one running around out there. Glenn. Hey, Buck, awesome show. Between you and Rush I get all the rational news I need daily. Well, thank you, Glenn. That puts me in the most elite company. Could you please take some time to evaluate the chances of a Republican take back of the House and keep in Congress. Also, hope you check out our new app, Parlor, like Twitter,

but with free speech, no banning. Glenn, I haven't heard about Parlor or is it Parlay? You wrote Parlor here. I don't know, but I'm guessing it might be Parlay, or maybe I'm wrong. I don't know. P A R L R or O R as to a Republican take back of the House. It's just so hard to assess anything accurately right now, I mean, even to do analysis of it. The landscape is going to change between now an election day in some pretty profound ways. So I

don't think it. I don't think I can really tell you much other than I know that the Senate map is going to be somewhat unfavorable for Democrats, which is a good thing for Republicans. And in terms of the House, look at the economy strong. I think we're in good shape because you'll also have Trump atop the ticket, which

you did not have in the mid term. And generally speaking, if you have a president who's presiding over good economy and gonna cruise to reelection, I think you're in good shape with trying to get the House of Representatives back under control. Kathy sent a wow, Hey, Buck, we just ditched cable because Hulu now has Foxed News. We save a lot by ditching by ditching Google TV. Also, my husband and I are original Saturday Team Buck. It was

seriously the best hours of our Saturdays. Thank you so much. Good for you for speaking your mind. Always We'll always have your back. My husband made those team buck backs for a meetup that we left one for you at the Blaze studios. Hopefully you got it, Kathy, that is so cool, this team buck meet up back. I did not get it, unfortunately, so I will call the Blaze and demand my team buck bag. That looks really cool what you send me. Thank you so much. And man's

that's an old photo. I was a youth I was a youthful, A youthful, A youthful, A youthful young buck in that photo. Still youthful. I hope working on it. Let's see here, skip rights. It occurs to me that even if we violent evil gun owners were to turn in all of our guns, we would still be violent, evil people, just unarmed. Then they would want to do something to intercede in our violent evil and has perhaps in turn us in re education camps, and when that failed,

extermination we'll skip. That's a little intense, my friend. But I your initial point there about how you'll still be considered violent evil people by leftist that's absolutely true. Your gun ownership and support of the Second Amendment is merely used as a proxy by your political opponents for why you're not a good person because you if you are a gun owner and you support the Second Amendment, you tend to also be more fiscally conservative. It's likely, but

not necessarily the case. You're socially conservative. More likely you go to church on Sunday, more likely you're married, more all these things that they broadly identify with conservatism, and it has become a major cultural a defining cultural separation. That's so there you have it. Yes, Indeed, Tom rides Buck use the term brainless democrat robots not to tell you how to do your job, but it's such redundancy necessary on air, keep out the otherwise, great work and

looking forward to more Shields High podcasts. Well, can't a robot have an artificial and I don't know an artificial brain? Do you guys? Remember Krang from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles? A few of you know what I'm talking about. Very few of you though, it was like your brain that was going to takeover world and head to short like talk to see. He had like a kind of a like saliva talking thing craying the brain. I don't know, Okay, I know weird, you guys think I'm I am weird.

I sit and talk to myself basically. Well, I mean hundreds of thousands of you, but I sit and talk into a microphone for three hours every day. That's normal people. Producer Mike is shaking his head. Yes, right, and normal people don't really do that. It's a thing that only weird people do. I seem although I was told recently that somebody somebody said that the only thing about me that they felt like wasn't good for media was that I was too nice and too normal. And I took

that as I took that as a compliment. I'm like, Okay, well, I mean, not good for my media career maybe, but I'm too nice and too normal. Uh, let's see we have But I'm not that nice. I mean, I'm pretty nice, not that nice. Caroline writes, Hey, Buck, I've heard you downplay the effect of Russia's interference in our election, Whereas I agree there is no effect on election. Come, I don't think that's the real aim of the Russian interference.

The Russians weren't trying to get Trump elected as much as they were trying to undermine American confidence in our governmental system. They exposed corruption at the DNC by showing how Hilary had the primary rigged. They so discord among American political factions and eroded our belief that we are capable of rational self governance. You describe the interference as a prank, which it was, but wow, it worked like a charm. It has all the trappings of a Russian

disinformation scheme, which they are infamous for. And I'm sure Commybert is laughing up his red sleeve. Thanks for all you do. Looking forward to some more history deep dives shields High. Carolyn, Well, Carolyn, as to the purpose of the Russian interference, I cannot disagree with you. I think that you are on track with the overall aim and I think that in that way interference and undermine of confidence and really also just the exacerbation of the nastiest

of political divides. All of that, all of that together is what is the strategic aim of was the strategic aim of the Russian disinformation disinformatzia? Is that right? Or is it disinformazia or disinformatzia. I think it's disinformatzia. I

don't know. I don't speak any of Russian. It's fun to pretend, though, and that's that was what they were hoping for, which means that the Democrats playing ball with all this stuff really and magnifying it and making it worse, and that really helps out what the Russians were trying to accomplish all along. So I think that we need to keep keep that in mind. The Russians, they always accused people on the other side of playing into someone's hands.

You know, Oh, Trump is playing into Putin's hands. Trump is playing into Putin's hands. To that, I would just say, well, if you look at who was really playing into Russian hands, the way that the Democrats reacted to all of this is exactly what the Russians would have wanted all along. So there you have it. Trump is playing on the last day that what Trump is playing into Putin's hand because they always freak out about it. Man, Yeah, it's

so funny, isn't it. Democrats have so much the left has so much control over the culture, but the people that they put forward in the news and information business are generally charmless nerds, you know, take themselves very seriously, not very impressive. They're like that they weren't they weren't swab enough and appeal like enough to be actors, so they figured they'd work at like CBS, eving News or something. That's that's the way it works. All right, Let's see

what we have here. Let's say what we have here and in the inbox? Shall we? Oh? Oh, here we go? Here we go? Lad Max? Right, Hey, Bucks, sorry about the misque. I can help correct your celiac. I enjoy the show very much on Amazon Prime. I enjoyed Bosh a thinking man show. And if you want to contact me here it is Peace and Shields, hie. I can help correct your celiac. Well, Max, that would that would be quite a magic trick, my friend. So maybe I'll

have to email you. But if you're if you're gonna ask me for my bank account information because you know a Nigerian prince who has the secret to a celiac disease cure, I don't think I'm gonna give it to you. I'm just kidding, buddy. I appreciate the offer, and I'll shoot you an email. See what you got in mind. As to the rest of the show. I think that's gonna be it for today. Team. Thank you so much for writing in, for listening, for hanging out I'll be

with you tomorrow. I'll be with you every day, same time, same place, Shields Hi
