Schiff Gives Away The Scheme

decode what really matters with actionable intelligence. Mag no mistake, America, You're a great American. Again, the Buck Sexton Show begins. Analyst, remember the press. Since misconduct cannot be decided at the ballot box, for we cannot be assured that the vote will be fairly won. Welcome to the Buck Sex and show everybody. The single most important moment of the marathon of Adam Shift's testimony yesterday or not his testimony, speechifying,

his monologuing. It's like he's trying out for a high school declamation team. That's what we used to call it. It's a speech contest. Who can give the best prepared speech? Notice what he said? Okay, this is the guy, the point man for trying to convince the United States Senate to remove a president of the United States do elected by sixty three million votes cast, to try and overturn that, eradicate, erase that which can never really happen. I know, right,

the election happened. Trumps in present for three years, but they want to undo that fundamental decision to give the president in four years, That's true. They want to make that go away. And so then we ask ourselves what really is going on here. We've been asking ourselves that question every day, and we've been answering it because we know.

But Adam Schiff gave us the answer in case we had any questions still lingering, For example, why do we have to go through this whole fiasco because the American people cannot be trusted, cannot be trusted to show their own judgment about this president and his conduct. The lib elites, the political apparatus, former Republicans who are now turn coach, who go to the other side abandoning something, abandoning principles and causes that they claim to have cared about for

decades of their professional lives. All of those people they get to make the decision the left, the Libs, the media, the deep state, academia, Hollywood, they get a bigger say than all of you. And oh, by the way, not only does Schiff want you to know, as he says that this cannot be entrusted to the American people. They talk about democracy so much, and yet they're so suspicious of democracy, aren't they. It's a system. Democracy alone does not give you a good outcome. It's just a process,

a process for the distribution of political power. As we all know. We could sit here and look at times in history when there have been very bad outcomes from democracy. Most of you are probably saying, yes, that's right, Hitler was. In fact, democratically elected democracy does not mean good outcomes. But you're supposed to respect that process and hope that a just people will seek justice in the way they cast their votes. Democrats don't view us that way though.

Clearly Adam Schiff thinks you can't be trusted to vote appropriately. Therefore, he would like to take away the possibility. He would like to remove that chance that you'll make the wrong vote, You'll make the wrong decision vote for Donald Trump's reelection. Has to stop us, has to cut it off at the pass can't allow this, and then that last part of it, we cannot be assured that the vote will be fairly won. Stunning stuff here. He's already laying the groundwork.

He's already beginning the narrative which has been in the background of this entire impeachment fiasco, that if Trump wins again, he didn't win fairly. He must have cheated. There's some way that he gained the system illicitly, and therefore, what do we take from that? He's an illegitimate president, not my president. I have said this, I put this out on Twitter. I stand by it. I believe Trump will win reelection. As you know, I try not to say

that too often. I don't want to get ahead of ourselves, but I do believe Trump will win reelection. I also believe and here are some other predictions. Maybe we should mark some of these down. The House if it maintains a Democrat majority, which who knows. I can't predict that for you. I don't know. But the House of Representatives, if it has a Democrat majority, there'll be some effort I don't know if it'll be successful or not, some

effort to refuse to certify President Trump's reelection. Maybe eventually they'll cave, but they they'll do something. They'll say, oh, no, we you know, we can't. We all have a cold, we all have the flu, we can't come in and certify. I mean, they'll do whatever they have to do to cast doubt on the legitimacy. They are delegitimizing the very institutions of government that they pretend to care so much about.

I mean, we were all treated to our own personal hell yesterday, those of us who had to watch this incredibly boring hearing, which I mean, all of this, the trial, the whole thing is so boring. And I'm watching it because there are important themes and things that come up during it. But it's not an entertaining thing at all. Let me say which you're all about the Kavanaugh hearings. It was gut wrenching. It was like watching an evil left wing ritualized torture session of a good man on TV.

It was engaging. This isn't even that this is sitting there saying I can't believe Adam Schiff thinks he should talk so much. I got a glimpse of what hell is yesterday. Hell is watching Adam Schiff speak for hours, hours, it seems, upon hours about his newfound love of Ukraine. George Washington, the Constitution in Thomas Payne. That was what I took from yesterday. I mean, the Democrats usually speak about the Constitution as though they're talking about something kind

of in the way. It's a bit it's usually a bit sordid for them, a bit old, a little out of date, written by evil white males. And yet here we are now being told that the Constitution is oh so sacred and Trump has violated it, and that we cannot be assured that the vote will be fairly won. You will, my friends, notice a pattern here. The two thousand election they claimed was not fairly one because of Bush v. Gore. The narrative there was the Supreme Court

gave the election to George W. Bush. That was what we were told, and that really Bush didn't win. There's a whole movie, a better an HBO, A preposterous movie with Kevin Spacey, by the way, a preposterous movie you can go check out. And then, of course in twenty sixteen, we didn't really in it was Russia, and now it's going to be we didn't, you know, Trump didn't really win. It's there must be something with Ukraine, or he tried the same thing. These people are nuts. There is no

reasoning with them on these issues anymore. I think they can't handle the prospect of being so foolish, so easily duped, so stupid, so emotional, that they would rather just live in a delusion. They'd rather just live in a world where they think that somehow all the things that they have believed all this time are true when they clearly are not. I mean, who can hear Adam Schiff talk about the shining City on a hill and not have a bit of a queasy feeling in their stomach? Adam

Schiff play clip four, please, producer Mark. We have for generations been the shining city upon a hill that President Reagan described. America is not just a country but also an idea. But what worth is that idea if, when tried, we do not affirm the values that underpinn it. What will those nascent democracies around the world conclude that democracy is not only difficult, but maybe that it's too difficult,

maybe that it's impossible. And who will come to fill the void that we leave when the light from that shining city upon a hill is extinguished. The autocrats with whom we compete value not freedom and fair elections, but the unending rule of a repressive executive. Autocrats then value not freedom of the press and open debate, but disinformation, propaganda,

and state sanction lies. I mean, is he doing a Keith Olberman impression from back in the day, because that's a bit of what It reminds me of the level of pomposity self importance. Perhaps if I speak about things in a way that makes it sound so utterly serious, the American people will be swayed to my case that the president didn't actually do anything, but almost did a

thing that would have resulted in nothing. But it sounds scary if I talked to you in this voice about it, and as if it was not clear how absolutely and utterly absurd this whole thing is. There was a moment yesterday when Adam Schiff actually said that we had to do this. We have to fight in Russia in Ukraine, so we don't have to fight them here. Let me give you the actual exact quote, because I have it. It is so stupid, It is so bizarre and absurd.

And yet do you think the media. Here we go, the United States aids Ukraine and her people so they can fight Russia over there, and we don't have to fight Russia here. Is he that desperate for grandiose, sweeping, utterly moronic phrases that he'll just latch onto anything that sounds profound because the case is not only absurd but

also pouring. Is that what this is really about? People were saying, Oh, he did such a fabulous job yesterday, a fabulous job describing what exactly that the president asks someone to find out information that would have been completely legitimate for him to find out about despite Democrats pretending that there's no there there. He's allowed to ask a question, and he's allowed told aid, he's allowed to decide to get answers as the commander in chief and as the

executive in chief of the United States government. And that's where it really lies, my friends, That's it. After that, it's just a question of do you hate this president or do you accept this president. Adam Schiff will convince you that we have that Ukraine is a critical US national security interest, so critical that we wouldn't even give them guns under the Obama administration, no lethal aid whatsoever. Sent them other things, but they wanted guns, they wanted

lethal aid. That's what they needed because they were in a war. And now we are to believe these democrats who tell us that this is the most important national security challenge of our time, or one of them a critical national security interest. How much are we really supposed to care about a border dispute in the east of Ukraine involving Russia. Ukraine is not a NATO country, is an ally, but Ukraine also has to fight its own battles. Have we not learned anything about the last twenty years?

We're not sending we should not be sending. I should say, our soldiers to fight other people's battles all over the world anymore. People have to fight their own battles, their own interests, at stake, their own safety, their own homes, their own lives. It's not for us to always just call up our best and bravest Americans and go try to solve the rest of the world's problems for them. I would hope we've learned that after lust twenty years.

But Adam Schiff thinks that we're helping fight them there so we don't have to fight the Russians. Here is he insane? We're not fighting the Russians. But remember he told you what this whole thing was about, and all of his all of his long and pompous and self

important nonsense. This is really this is really just a question of the Democrats recognizing they're probably going to lose the next election, and they want you to leave that, and they want their own base to believe that it's illegitimate that Trump hasn't Trump cannot legitimately beat them again.

Of course he can, and I think he will, and I don't know how they will handle that, although I do know that they will fail to certify immediately the results of the next election, just so they can keep this narrative. They can keep these stories going for their base, for the crazy left wing loons who you know, want to believe. Jesse Smollett and Greta Thunberg and there. These are people on the left. They get listened to these days, believed let's take policy advice, or let's take their word

for it. Adam Schiff, let's listen to that guy. I remember the Adam Schiff who was telling us that he had all the proof of Russia Trump collusion, whatever, happened to that. Oh, there was no proof, but he kept saying there was proof. Guy's a liar. But ultimately anything is justifiable from their perspective, because this is all about making sure that the next election that they think they might doesn't count. You see, it never counts when Democrats lose.

When the left loses, the system is never important or even sacred. When the left loses. There's always some external reason. And now, like a bunch of cry babies, they have settled on their favorite one. You cheated, You're in the freedom hunt. This is the Buck Sex and Show podcast. By most accounts, it was a virtuoso performance that drew

praise from all sides yesterday. It was a stunning recitation of the facts that we've together constitutional framing American history and Donald Trump's laundry list of abuses of power and obstruction of Congress. Will have that in a fist. We are going to have that in a bit. But Willie I first a virtuoso performance. There are people at home and I feel badly for them who when Adam Schiff was doing this whole it really is just like a play.

It's the Attris. You know, he is playing a character up there, and he looks at some points like he's going to tear up because he loves the country so much. This is the man who lied to the American people. Adam Schiff lied to the American people for years about the president of the United States being a traitor to his country. Has Adam Schiff ever apologized for that he was wrong? Objectively a question of fact here he was wrong. Did he ever say anything about that? Oh? No, of

course not. Now just moves on to the next con Look, Libs, maybe just deal with the fact that you have a president in office right now who's better at this than you thought he would be. Who's better at this than the guy that you thought was a genius demigod before Trump. And a lot of the things that you know, the liberal elites and the Democratic Party have been telling themselves are true for quite a long time now just aren't.

And I know that can be unsettling. I know that that can make someone feel like what's going on in the world around me? But that is where we are. And if they were going to be honest about this, if they're going to be adults about this, they'd find themselves in a position to start to say what is true about Trump and what is not? What has he done well? And what could he improve on? Instead? It's just everything Trump does is horrible laundry list of abuses

of power? What's the laundry lists? We're talking about one incident. We're all in this boring mess because of one thing, a phone call for which we have the transcript, And we are being told by Democrats in elected office, and of course the media they're lackeys, or maybe the Democrats. You know who's the lackey of whom is a whole other conversation, But we're being told that the American people aren't allowed to decide whether or not that's an abusive power.

Our elected officials have to decide if that's an abusive power. Keep in mind, when they publican majority Senate a quits him will be told that, oh, well, those officials were dishonest, they were cheating. Thanks for listening to The bus Essen Show podcasts.

We also live in a country in which we ask every citizen to serve on juries, and in the situation which they're asked to

do their civic duty and serve on juries. Most of those people have other jobs. They haven't take a leave trump with the trial goes for alongside. Often they don't collect their paycheck from that. They are given a meager amount of money relative to what some of those people might make. And these people's jobs is to do this. I mean, this is literally the job. If you find it too annoying or frustrating or uncomfortable to sit for eight hours and listen, you can resign tomorrow and go

get another job. But like, this is your job. I guess I like this. Libs are upset because as much as they're trying, on the one hand, they're telling just out of shift, but on a virtuoso performance. Okay, yeah, so such a virtual or the performance that senators were like falling asleep. People watching were you know, you know that thing. This is happening all the time. I was overtired.

I feel like for half of high school, where your head would bob down, it would come back up because you were so close to just pass it out and slap in your face on the on the desk in front of you. That was like most of the people who were stuck there watching this thing there was nothing new, there's nothing we haven't heard before. It's all the same stuff. And then but just with more more emotive, more emotive from Adam Shift, Thomas Payne, George Washington at one point.

At one point, Shift this was awesome. I was like, he's not really doing this, is he? He's like when Washington crossed the Telaware I'm like, we're going, we're comparing Trump asking a foreign counterpart if there were some annoying meddling from some Ukrainian government officials in our election, which has been report it on by numerous media outlets that

haven't attracted it. And oh, by the way, also, can you find out what was going on with the former vice president's son getting paid more than a normal fortune one hundred company board member while his dad's running foreign policy in that country for America? Seems like kind of

an interesting thing, can you get adds? They're comparing that to George Washington risking at all with the roll of the dice going across a Delaware river, and on Christmas Day or was it the day after Christmas attacking an encampment of British soldiers, which many say was able to keep Washington's army from being surrounded and annihilated. These are the kinds of comparisons that Democrats make with a straight face, not just with a straight face, with a face full

of emotion. This is what this is what the country is facing right now. Oh good heavens. I also have to tell you, and I haven't really said this to you before, but I do believe this. It's hard not to feel like justice in this case would be taking into account that Democrats have already tried for three years. One version of Trump is a threat to the republic. Trump is a cheater who did not win the election. He worked with our with our enemies, the Russians. Russia

is not an enemy state. It's an oppositional state. But to call an enemy state is to go too far. But worked with our Russian enemies in order to win an election he would not have won otherwise, and therefore he betrayed the most fundamental values of our democracy. For three years, they ran around repeating this narrative. And I love all these journalists, you know, all these news anchors

they'll have on. Oh no, they didn't, necessarily, They just ran stories that let their analysts then come on and all repeat that to their faces, and you know, the Shudos and the Tappers and the Mattow's and just sitting there just bobbing their heads. Yeah, yeah, that's right, Yeah, totally trader. Trump's a trader. Three years of that, we've had lie lies. The people that were perpetrating that are either disgusting liars or total morons or a combination of

those things. There's no accountability for them at all. They all still no one got fired for spreading all that disinformation.

I mean a few people got fired for running just objectively false, single one off news stories that could be proven false right away, by the way, But those who concocted this narrative, which I would also note that I've spoken to many people, I spoke to the President himself about this, slowed down things in the White House, became a real drain on the White House's ability to handle other problems, created a siege mentality among senior administration officials.

So they don't think that just because they couldn't prove the lie, the lie was not useful to them. And I bring this up because why shouldn't we take that into account as we look now at this at their allegations about the Ukraine conversation, you know whatever they want to call this the abuse of power around the Zelenski phone call. They lied to us about Russia collusion for three years. Why would I think that their judgment is sound now? And also how am I supposed to gauge?

How should I weigh that they were willing to lie, cheat, steel, do whatever they had to do to try to take Trump out with the Mulla report and it failed, and now they're trying it again with something else. Do I think that they're object I mean, if you think that these people are being honest and objective and ethical and they care about the Constitution, you're just not very smart. You're just not a very bright person. You've been so brainwashed that you're not capable of looking at this with

any sort of objectivity whatsoever. Right, So I think that that also needs to be factored in here. I mean, the same atom ship that was telling us the president effectively cheated to win the election with Russia's help is now claiming the President was trying to cheat with Ukraine's help in the next election. Well, he lied last time. Why do I think he's telling the truth this time? This is why it matters. It matters in a court

of law. For example, it matters if you lie under oath unless you're doing it for Democrats benefit, like Andy McCay at the FBI, who, by the way, I still believe, will not spend a day in jail for committing the felony of lying I believe twice under oath to the Inspector General of the FBI. But different rules for Democrats.

This is the country we live in now. It's really, in many ways the most damaging to our sense of a government body and a law, a rule of law that is a central characteristic of our americanness of being an American living in a country where there are different standards depending on whether you are on the left on the right when it comes to criminal law. That does pull us apart in very serious ways. That then does start to raise questions about how long are we gonna

be able to continue this way? But it was also really boring yesterday. It was just so boring. I didn't even I was going to text producer Mark and make sure that he was watching every minute of it, but it went went super late. I'm glad, I mean, Fox didn't carry it live throughout the whole night. Which was which was a mercy for their audience, but it went until it went until late Again, we've heard all of

this before. We know that they're not going to have the votes in the in the Senate, so that all that's left is now to argue to quibble over what the process is going to be before we get to this this acquittal. And you know, the President, for example, has said this, and you know, I think this is going to be a recurring theme. You're going to hear him bring this up more. Producer Mark playclip twelve. I would rather go the long way. I would rather interview Bolton.

I would rather interview a lot of people. The problem with John is that it's a national security problem. You know, you can't have somebody who's at national security. And if you think about it, John he knows some of my thoughts. He knows what I think about leaders. What happens if he reveals what I think about a certain leader and it's not very positive, and that I have to deal on behalf of the country, it's going to be very hard.

It's going to make the job very hard. He knows other things, and I don't know if we left on the best of terms, I would say, probably not, you know, and so you don't like people testifying when they didn't leave on good terms, and that was due to me, not due to him. I have been telling you this all along, and I stick with what I said. They should just shut this have a vote, shut this thing down. Do not treat this with greater dignity and seriousness these

charges than they deserve. They did not have a fair problem us in the House, and no fair minded person would think otherwise. Trump was getting railroaded in the House the whole time. He was getting absolutely unfair treatment, and we all, we all saw it. And now they're complaining

that there's not fair treatment in the Senate. I'm sorry. No. What is the lesson A critical lesson of Trump is m don't treat your enemies in a way that they will not treat you and have not treated you when there are real things at stake and you can't afford to lose, don't. Don't just give them the benefit of the doubt and treat them with good faith after they've been spitting in your face, and then they're going to get what they want in the end. No, I'm sorry.

Trump has a better approach usually and I think he's saying that he wants them to interview a lot of people, knowing that that's very unlikely to happen. But I'm not sure. There's this big theory going around that Trump is going to show up himself and testify because of the theatrics

of it. That's not going that's not going to happen, just like there was that big theory during the Muller pro that Trump was going to go under oath and subject himself to questioning by Robert Muller, which as we all know, would have absolutely, absolutely resulted in Mueller claiming that there was some some misstatement of facts, untruth, some lie, whatever he was going to call it, that was told by the President United States under oath, and therefore he

would have had a felony and there, you know, and then then it would have been, oh, that's that's why they'll forget about Russia and everything else. It would have just been the lie that he told Muller. Ah that we got him. This is the game these people are playing. It's just power politics, and there's nothing about principles here.

There's nothing about the good of the country and what's fair, what's right, and what's just that's why Adam Schiff, I mean he doth protest, He doth protest too much about the Constitution and about the need to look at the warnings of the founding fathers. Oh, here's an example. We

play play fourteen. We are here today in this hallowed chamber, undertaking this solemn action for only the third time I'm in history because Donald J. Trump, the forty fifth President of the United States, has acted precisely as Hamilton and his contemporaries feared. President Trump's solicited for an interference in our democratic collections, abusing the power of his office to seek help from abroad to improve his reelection prospects at home, and when he was caught, he used the powers of

that office to obstruct the investigation into his own misconduct. Yes, this is what was keeping Hamilton up at night. A conversation with the President of Ukraine that resulted a no action whatsoever. A harmless ask was what it really was from the President United States. Take can you get me

some answers on this thing? Thanks? That's it. And you know, if the President felt like they weren't doing a good enough job on corruption and was going to withhold aid and if, in fact the answers about Biden and Barismo were part of not doing enough job on corruption, He's allowed to do that, as I have been saying all along. And now we go into I guess, producer Mark, we got another whole day? Is this on TV? It's all on TV all day today? Right? This is another Guys.

You know, you know how devoted I am to this job. But I don't know. I might I might need to just watch like an hour or view of it and just call it a day. I just it's so there's just so little. I can always read the transcripts. That's what I've been doing. I'll read the transcript afterwards of the main speech by Schiff or the main main speech by Sipolonium. Sipoloni did a fantastic job, by the way, but there's only so much of this that you can take.

I mean, it really is true. Hell is being stuck in a room with no escape while Adam Schiff lectures you on the Constitution, George Washington and the need for US national security interests to be inextricably linked with out of Ukraine. Absurd. My friends, you're in the freedom hunt. This is the buck Sexton Show podcast leader McConnell and Senate Republicans don't want a fair trial that considers all the evidence. On four separate votes, every Senate Republican voted

against requesting relevant documents for the trial. On three other votes, every Senate Republican voted against calling relevant witnesses before the Senate. Oh, that's right. The House, though, didn't need to do any of that. They have no answer for this. I mean, their entire argument is moot the moment you recognize that all their demands now were completely skipped over. When they had the votes and they had the power, they rammed

through impeachment. Now that they don't have the votes, they want to cry and complain about in the need for more evidence, the need for more witnesses, the need for all of this. Intelligent reason why people can see through this. It's very obvious. It's very obvious what is going on. And everyone can get all high and mighty, but oh, it's about the republic. But we know what this is about.

This is about the Democrats, a bunch of looney tunes socialists running for president, and they worry that any of the ones that they have, including Biden, are going to get crushed by President Trump when he runs for reelection, as he's running for reelection, and so they're desperate. They're desperate. This whole thing has been a desperation play from the very beginning. And now we're getting into okay, if we go down this path, they should listen to Buck hold

the vote a quit. We know the store. There's no there's nothing else that we have. There's nothing else that we have to know. It doesn't matter. I don't care. I don't care what someone else says they think was going on with the president, because we know what actually happened, and I'm telling you that it's not impeachable, and I don't and it doesn't matter. They can pretend it really matters as much as they want. It doesn't matter. This whole thing is a pretense. This whole thing is putting

on airs. But now they're going to tell you that, well, you can't. They get not only do they get to demand witnesses, they get to demand which witnesses. There was some talk yesterday will there'd be a swap a trade.

Here's what Adam Schiff says about that play. Ten. This isn't like some fantasy football trade, as I said yesterday, this isn't We'll offer you this if you'll give us that, We'll offer you a witness that is irrelevant and immaterial, who has no irrelevant testimony, but a witness that will allow us to smear a presidential candidate if you want to get a legitimate witness. That's not a trade. Trials

aren't trades for witnesses. We offered last night to have the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court rule on a question of materiality for any of the witnesses. And you know something, not surprisingly, the President's team was vehemently opposed. Not because the president's team doesn't trust the Chief Justice to make an impartial decision, but because they do trust the Chief Justice to make an impartial decision about materiality. No, because they have the votes. Are they going to give

that up? This is a political process, shift, it's not a criminal trial. It is determined by politics by politicians. So why would they seed what they did? The House seed their authority to did Adam shift seed his authority to just do things how he wanted? Of course? Not keep coming back to it that that fantastic quote from Frank Herbert's Children of doone when I have When I do not have power, I ask for freedom because it

is according to your principles. When I do have power, I demand obedience because it is according to my principles. Or basically what he says, what he wrote, that's what democrats do. That's their approach. Do what the democrats say, or the process is illegitimate. Give them everything they want, no concessions, no halfway. If you don't do that, the process is illegitimate. They're a bunch of unethical babies. Shift all the rest of them. We can. It's transparent what

they're doing. We see what they're doing, and they don't really ca because the people, the emotional democrats who are convinced of so many things about themselves that are not true in general because of their political beliefs. The emotional democrats that are watching this, and I don't think it's even that many of them, they think that Schiff is a guardian of the republic, the second coming of Avanati.

If you see it from another perspective, or pretty much nothing has been done since the global emissions of CO two has not reduced, and that is of course what we are trying to achieve, among other things. I mean, we're all fighting for for the environment and the climate, and if you see it

from that aspect, what has concretely been done. I mean, if you see it from a bigger perspective than basically nothing so, but that's of course we had expected. It will require much more than this. This is just the very beginning. We are being scolded by a seventeen year old here for lack of the abandonment of civilization. That's that is what is happening. I want to be very

clear about this. To take us to zero CO two emissions, which is the demand that we keep hearing, whether it's in one year or ten years, would result in the cessation of munderinade and we would have to go back to you know, by the way, it's not even possible. You couldn't You wouldn't be able to do this, and you'd have you actually would have millions of people starve. You can't do this. You can't make food without petrochemicals. You can't make you can't transport it, you can't keep

it cold. You can't you can't feed the live stock. I mean, it's just this is insane. It's insane, so stupid and so full is that a normal person would just dismiss this is this is this is as intellectually worthwhile this old zero CEO two or else we're all going to die, as intellectually worthwhile as a person who is pushing a shopping cart down the street with a big sign that says repent for we're all going to

die in two hours. I mean, some of your probably call Lisi's saying repent, But you know what I mean, I don't think you're gonna go, oh my gosh, I saw a guy with a sign that says we're all gonna die too. I don't think you're going to do that. I also don't think that in any other aspect of your life. And I still remember when I was I was on the couch that outnumbered, and some of the ladies there, one or two of them gave me a hard time about this. They were wrong. I was right.

I was gonna say it because I said that. Why not just ask Greta Thunberg what we should do about monetary policy. She has as much knowledge as a seventeen year old who hasn't been to school in apparently three years, which when you're a teenager that really matters. Okay, you're you're actually losing. There's learning that's occurring that you are

not getting. But you know, by the way, when she's eighteen, she's an adult, then can we just then it's then it's like we can totally talk about her ideas and talk about how stupid they are. Right right now we're supposed to be not because she's she's seventeen, it's gonna be eighteen soon. Eighteen is an adult. I just want to know where you know AOC is like twenty six twenty seven? Are we allowed to criticize her ideas? Are she too young? Where are the lines again? Now? I

always tell you lips have no principles. It just all moves depending on what they need for their emotional impulses or their desire for power. There's no rules, there's there's no respect, there's no sense of there's an order to things, and it's not just what you want when you want it. You see this with the whole Greta Thunberg fiasco, and I absolutely I stand by one hundred percent, I mean

a thousand percent. I double down and triple down. I'll put it all on that place on the table where buck gets to say buckets to place a bed on. This is lunacy that you know, multi millionaire journey, you know, and news anchors at CNN and MSNBC and ABC are are reporting on the commentary of a seventeen year old girl about climate I mean, this is insane, this is absurd. They any I challenge any human being on planet Earth to debate this issue. Anyone anywhere debate this issue with me.

I'll go any we're gonna talk about this anywhere. I mean, it can't be some randow. It's got to be somebody I actually would enjoy crushing in a debate. So a blue check of some kind. But they'll they'll lose on this. They will lose, just like there were all these blue checks. I brought Upjesse Smellett before. Why is it that I was doing a show here saying you guys who are listening to remember, I was saying Jesse Smelltt lied and

listen before we knew all of the stuff. We know, like this guy's a liar, and I had people coming how dare I had people who were coming after me publicly saying I'm, you know, an expert, and I work with the Innocence Project and I know the law, and run I'm like, well, you're an idiot because the guy's lying, okay, And how is it that I how's it that I knew this? I mean, how many times am I to come in here when I've made a really strong proclamation

on an issue like that? Early on, I was saying that they were lying about Kavanaugh before the fake gang rape allegations from Julie sweat Nick and Michael Avanati sitting in El Chapo's prison right now or his salve that he was held in at the Manhattan Correctional Facility. I think that's also where Epstein allegedly killed himself. But why was I able to figure that out and the Libs were not? To this day, One of my I've told

you this before. One of the things that makes me frustrated is the first time I heard about the I knew the Duke Lacrosse case was a lie, but that based on the facts. But that also I wasn't in public life yet, so I couldn't. That didn't give me an opportunity, but the UVA fraternity. I also knew that that was a lie based on just reading the story,

and I was too. I wasn't certain enough to be willing to take the heat at that time for calling a rape a gang rape a hoax when, as we know, hoax, there's no human being alive today who could make the case otherwise the person who claimed that happened is like, yeah, okay, I'm I'm a kind of a crazy person and a liar.

But so that's a mistake that I promised I would never make again, because I was very angry that I did myself that I did not come forward as soon as I knew that was fake, because I told friends of mine, I'm like, this thing is fake. But Greta Thunberg, I walk around and I'm saying to people, okay, who wants to debate this issue? And they won't debate it, but then they'll take cheap shots when your back is turned, they'll say, oh, he's a child basher, child basher, Come on,

well what is it? And also at what point, you know how we can try juveniles as adults if the crime is bad enough, I mean, if your voice is elevated onto a global stage on a policy matter that has real implications. Do we then get to treat you like an adult? Is that where we are? They did this with David Hog, David Hawk, who's an adult now, no more child bashing. He's eighteen or nineteen. Harvard accepted him.

Of course, these schools are all they just prost these these elite institutions now prostrate themselves for just a just a little taste, just a hint of celebrity or relative of celebrity, child of a Democrat politician. Any school you want to go to, any school, you could be illiterate, Any school you want to go to, if you're the son or daughter of you know, respected Democrat senator or

a member of Congress. If you're a Republican, you know, they're like, go play in the you know, go go make some hay bales or something you're not allowed, depending what kind of republic. If you're like a fancy establishment Republican, like a bush, then I'll take you. But that's another conversation. See, I keep it real, I keep it it's not quite

as bad as if the Democrats. But the Republicans they will they will take some some dumb asses at these schools if they have a fancy enough last name, even if it's a Republican one. So on the Thunberg issue, why am I talking to this today? Well, Steve Manuchin, who's a very shrewd, very sharp guy. I actually know people. I've I've talked to people in my own personal life who know Manuchin from having worked with him in the pastor and they're all like, look, he's a he's a

smart guy. He's very very very wealthy. He's a smart guy. He made his own money. He didn't he's not some inheritance trustaferian or anything else. But he's a sharp dude. And he said today, uh he they're all mad at him now. Manuchin says, this is the CNN headline. Greta Thunberg can explain US economic policy after she studies economics in college that this was after this was during a

press briefing at the World Economic Forum in Davos. People just referred it usually as the Davos you know meeting or Davos period. Gretta Thornberg has called for a public and private sector divestment from fossil fuel company. Does that pose a threat to US economic growth or reporter as Manuchin. Is she the chief economist or who is she? I'm confused.

The secretary applied it's a joke. Oh, they're not gonna let him get away with that, though, after she goes and studies economics and college, he can come back and explain that to us. Greta Thunberg responded, My gap year ends in August, but it doesn't take a college degree in economics to realize that are remaining one point five degree carbon budget and ongoing fossil fuel subsidies and investments

don't add up. So either you tell us how to achieve this mitigation or explain a future generations and those already affected by the climate emergency why we should abandon our climate commitments. Blah blah blah blather. What does this? What does this even mean? Let's take a step back for a second to public and private sector divestment from fossil fuel companies. This is crazy. I don't mean that

this isn't a good idea. This is insane. This would be, as I said, the cessation of civilization as we know it, no more investors. So what we'll think about that way, if the public and the private divest, take all their funds out, which would also I assume after me, you don't we're not going to buy fossil fuels anymore, right, because that money then goes to fossil fuel companies, you know, Exonmobile,

British petroleum goes to these companies. So we're gonna everyone has to sell all their stock, collapse, the stock price, the public sector, no more subsidies, no more trying to get oil to people cheaply, and natural gas and other things. And then you know, don't buy it either. It's the idea is so insane that it's hard to even think

through what their prescription is. And Manuchan squats this away, and you would think, okay, buck well, you know maybe maybe you know, the Libs can be a little crazy on this, but they understand what's really At some level, this is just sport for them. It's it's the theatrics. They like this girl with a you know, a foreign accent who goes around scolding the world like liberals enjoy this for some reason. Does young Hurdan show up in

China and Indians scull them? By the way, it's always you know, basically America and Europe we're oh, my gosh, she's like a profit of climate. We have to no, no, she doesn't know anything. And yet all these liberals who are supposed to be information employees, people that they gather,

they learn stuff, they disseminate information and knowledge. That's their entire job, that's what they get up every day to do, are either too stupid or too dishonest to call this out for what it is, which is that it is paddently absurd. It's just completely and utterly absurd. I want to bring you into some examples of that. Actually you're in the Freedom hud. This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast, so you know I speak in these generalities. We're talking

about the Greta Thunberg situation. Seventeen year old girl says, divest public and private sector, divestment from all fossil fuel companies, right, so all think of it like all oil and gas companies all over the world, which, by the way, would mean that the national the national economies of countries like Russia and Saudi Arabia, and you know, and Iraq and Iran and Nigeria and countries with hundreds of millions, hundreds

of millions of people, their national economies would collapse overnight. Does she have a plan for this? Luckship with Warren have a five year plan for this. Greta Thunberg has no plan for this. But she says this, and people that are supposed to be knowledge workers just just eat it up like a bunch of complete and utter imbeciles. And and here I have a there's a great thread here. This is this gentleman is a Daily Beast and MSNBC

guy named sam Stein. So Grete Thunberg is being treated and she's at Davos, She's being treated like somebody we all have to listen to as global leadership form that presidents go to, very important people go to this thing, sam Stein from whatever the place is. Whether just yea a Daily Beast which is one of the worst trash websites on planet Earth. But I really would love to better understand the psychology behind why Greta Thunberg seems to

drive prominent Republicans and Trumpians so nuts. She doesn't drive us nuts, You moron? Why do you listen to her? Why do you cover her as a news story all the time? Why do you not ask any challenging questions? Why do you use the platforms. You have to magnify the message of pure ignorance, which is what she is spreading. This is just ignorance. And then if anyone tries to

criticize it, which we are allowed. If you're going to force this in the national conversation by blasting it from all the air waves, shouldn't we be allowed to say that this is silly, this is nonsense. Shouldn't we be allowed to make those claims. Oh no, of course not. That's not allowed. Then you're being mean. It's not just him, Michelle Goldberg, she's a New York Times columnist. Here you go. She responds to him. Thuneberg, Greteth Thunberg. She's a young

woman who challenges them and doesn't smile. Yeah, that's why we have a problem with it, because she's a young woman who challenge This is what Journalists are the worst people, And they're really kind of stupid. They're just they're just actors that can write a little better and sound a little smarter. Sometimes for the most part, they're they're really dumb. And I I'm not somebody that I didn't go to

j school. I wasn't trying to do this whatever. I actually tried to do real things for a while, and how can anyone be So this is a New York Times columnist. I'm just read this. This is just the comment thread that these are all blue checks people. You know, they're they're showing you their psychology here around Greteth Thunberg. They don't understand that this is bizarre. I mean, it's like laughably and also it's uncomfortably bizarre now because are

these people really? Are they in some kind of weird climate change cult? Eli Eliza Hogue, the president of nayroll Pro Choice American. Wow, I didn't even know who that was. But that's that's a pretty that's a maccabbre organization. It's their deep fear of powerful women. The fact that she's young and learned not to she writes something else but care early in life makes her even more terrifying. What if there's a whole generation of young women who don't care,

that's their kryptonite. No, you know, it's scary, a whole generation of young women who would mimic Greta Thunberg and go speak about issues that they have no background or knowledge of and then hope that everyone just defends them. I mean, she's actually sort of playing the youth and women card here. That's not what we want women to do.

If you want to put your ideas out there in public, you should welcome people trying to explain why or to debate why your ideas are wrong, especially on a matter of such great importance as this. Maggie Serota, staff writer at Spin bylines at Esquire, Glamour. Yeah, another left wing female writer. Same thing that makes them go insane over David Hogg. The unimpeachable moral clarity of their arguments? Are these people toldal morons? I really, I mean I have to.

They don't understand why a seventeen year old with no knowledge of economics or science being given a platform at Davos, interviewed by CNN Time Magazine person in the year telling us to divest from fossil fuel companies a patently maniacally aggressively stupid thing to say and want anyone to do. And people are listening. Adults are believing this, Adults think that this is something that they should pay attention to. And these writers, I mean they are writers, but they're

not'm very good. These writers are all taking this position that we're the problem. Do any I mean, I put out the challenge any writer these oh so smart I mean, because they were like smart classes and use like hip language at the Nation, at Salon, at Slade. Let's debate Greta Thornborg as a messenger of climate change, anybody anywhere. Let's have this debate, because I can't debate her or actually seventeen that I'm a bully and I'm mean, and so let's have somebody else stand in for her. And

why should this be? Why should the medium magnify the message of an ignorant seventeen year old about divesting from fossil fuel companies a very specific charge. This is what she's saying should be done. And people that have been brainwashed,

and yeah, that's a good idea. And then they get in their car and they drive to a store that uses energy drive from fossil fuel to keep their food cold, that they get back in their car to go back to their home that is either kept warm or cold, depending on what they need by fossil fuels, in a house full of products that, by the way, fifty percent a fossil fuel usage goes into making the products in their home, things like plastic things. I mean, these people

are so ignorant. It's like they never learned anything. They don't read books. They just talk about the books that other people that they think sounds smart say they've read, and then they tweet snarky things at each other. I mean, by this list goes on and on and on, blue checks all taking the same Yeah, why is gretis so threatening to Republicans? I want to ask why are leftists so stupid? What has happened to them? The left used to have a real intellectual tradition that at least was

worthy of grappling it. This is just insanity. I mean, this is people that you know, like roll roll around on the street, you know, muttering to themselves.

He's a sleeves bag. Everybody knows that Pat Cipoloni is a high quality human being. I was very impressed with Patty a

great emotion yesterday. A pat sibrilliant guy. But I've never seen that emotion, and that's real emotion. That's because he knows this is a hoax, and I was very proud of the JOBBI did. I like the way the President speaks about these sleazy democrats. I think it's I think it's appropriate. I think that it needs to be said the way that he says it. And I gotta tell you I like it. But there's something else. I just I wanted to play that just because it's kind of

you know, brings a smile in my face. The President will just say it, that's tell it like it is

about this stuff. I also want to point out that the president who we were told and there was a real, a real condescension from a lot of people, including a lot of conservatives early on, about anyone who is religious in a traditional Christian religious sense, right, I mean not, I know there's all this, you know, other of these churches now that it's like you're shown up to a rock concert and it's like if you pray enough, you're

gonna get more money, because that's what God does. I mean, there's a lot of stuff out there, and I like, I don't don't talk about the religious stuff here very much, but there's a lot of stuff out there that I think people should ask good and well intentioned, good Christians should ask more questions like what's really going on here with these guys. But that said, Christians have received a

lot of shade. I think people, you know, they've received a lot of condescension from the media and from others for saying that, well, even if Trump himself has not lived a life that seems particularly Christian, he's an ally of Christians as president with his policies and his actions. And we've been told that that's a you know, that was a Faustian bargain, and people who say that, of course never know who Faust is. But you know, that's a whole other thing. That's a whole other conversation. But

we've been told that. And now it comes out that President Trump is going to be the first presidents, first Republican president, to go and speak at the March for Life, where you have usually over one hundred thousand people who gather to March for Life in Washington, DC, and they do such important they do such important work, the people that show up at this and their message is one

of such importance. It is remarkable that you have not had other presidents who claim to be pro life personally and publicly in their policies, show up and give a bit more support. I mean the media always tries to just they give the bare minimum. Yeah, there's this thing going on. It's called the March for Life. Any any abortion stuff, you know, anti women, that's what they The way they talk about it, it's like there's a you know, there's a two for one sale going on at Walmart

for deck chairs or something. I mean, they just they could care less, right, They try to just push it aside, even though it's a very large, very successful year in and year out rally. It's been going on for quite some time. And President Trump will be the first president ever to go and he's going to deliver a speech in person this Friday. By the way, March for Life is in its forty seventh year and it usually has about a hundred thousand people who show up. And you

know what's interesting about the people show up. Put aside for a fact, put aside for just a second that they're showing up for a blessed reason. But beyond that, they show up and they know why they're there. They're not being used by anybody. They know why they're there. And compare this to so many of these left wing rallies. They get all his praise to the media. The Women's March, now it's an anti Trump march featuring a lot of women. They don't even know why they're there. March for Life

knows why they're there, and God bless them. And I hope that they have a fantastic year this year in DC. And I'm very, very proud the President's going.

We got our friend David Harsani back in the mix. He's, of course, senior writer at National Review, and he is joining us now to talk about all of the things. Mister Harsani. Always a pleasure, always great to be her things. I want to talk to you about the Glenn Greenwall situation and the way that journalists are talking or not talking about that. But but I did. I did a couple of things first, because we've been discussing a lot of things today on the show. I just what's kind

of your what's your thirty thousand foot take? This is how Buck loves to ask this question on this whole set of trial thing. At this point, Adam Schiff, where's Harsanya and all this stuff. I'm having a lot of trouble getting excited about impeachment. It should be I think, far more entertaining at the very least, since it doesn't

really matter. Nothing's going to change, and I think anyone's changing their minds, and I don't you know, I don't think it's you know, he's going to be removed, or that even maybe even one Republican senator is going to want to remove him in the end. I did notice yesterday that Adam Schiff was being before pretending that he had, you know, he was the next you know, Cato, the Elder, you know, just the greatest order whoever lived. And I found that kind of humorous because whenever I tuned in,

I was just completely bored. I'm not saying he gave a bad speech, but it was middling, I think, and he's sort of a middling politician. But anyway, so my view of this is that everyone knows what's going on. We're repeating the same things over and over again, and nothing's going to really change on the ground, and maybe other than a few districts, you know, for grabs in the middle of America somewhere. I don't know, what do you think Democrats are trying to really get out of this?

Is this the bass play? They had no choice. The base is crazy, and they got to feed the crazy to the base. Yeah, I mean, once Pelosi was in, I mean, what else can they do. They're going to have to follow it through to the end, and the best thing to do to put forward the best case you can. And for them, the best case is to be very non specific and to just generally say that this man shouldn't be president and we're going to throw everything we can out there. It's simply not a reason

to impeach a president. Yeah, it just strikes me as the whole thing is such a It really is such a sham. But we're just I mean, we're talking about bribery, right, and all kinds of different specific criminals, supposed criminal activities, and now you know, we're back to saying that the Russians stole the election and that if we let Donald Trump run again, you know they're going to steal the election again, which is just the conspiracy theory. And don't

even calls a guy out on it. Yeah. I also I'm fond of reminding everyone because sometimes people say know and then I say, go google it. That in the early days of the whistleblower thing, and this audience knows what I'm going to say. But the initial oh we got him was that it was a campaign finance violation. Do you remember that? That was my favorite that accepting a thing of value from Ukraine, trying to elicit the thing of value from Ukraine was a campaign finance violation, right,

don't There's another argument that I don't get. First of all, I don't think that it's illegal what he did criminally illegal anyway, even if it was even everything if they said was true. But I don't get this idea that because he supposedly was doing it for person some kind of personal gain, that it's worse than presidents who undermine

the Constitution. For me, the precedent set setting. Uh, you know, attacks on the Constitution are far worse than some guy who's trying to you know, personally benefit in some political way. That that guy goes away and the other presidents who just you know, destroyed parts of the constitution basically you know, have set precedent. So I don't get that argument either.

And just before we get to the Glenn Greenwell situation, I'm sure you've you've probably seen that Manuchin kind of dismissed Greta I mean Greta Thunberg as calling for a divest and divesting public and private sectors from fossil fuel companies, which I keep saying everybody. I mean, David, is it fair? You're you know, I always respect your opinion. You tell me what you think, even if you don't in sarily up with me. I don't think there's a way to describe that as a plan other than to say that

it's crazy. I think that's crazy. It is more than crazy. It's essentially is saying that we have to undo modernity. I mean, it's just so stupid. He wasn't listening to the show before Friends, But what did I say on the show? It's exactly what I said. It's so stupid that any human being who takes it seriously is not very smart, Like any adult that hears then and goes yeah, is not very smart. But I I did this thing

before you came on. I read, I mean blue checks, sam Stein, Michelle Goldberg going down all these blue checks that right for fancy places David who are like, well, why why do they have to Why is Greta Funberg so threatening to Republicans? Why do they feel the need to like bash her ideas? Are they stupid? Like? How does Michelle Goldberg at The New York Times not understand why divesting from fossil fuel companies isn't like, try to

help me work through this. I mean, I think about this topic a lot, and there's no I am not threatened by the teenage girl. I'm threatened by the people who take her seriously because they sometimes hold positions of power, and they are in the media, and they are policymakers. And the idea that we should take on the tremendous cost of even trying to reach you know, emission standards that levels that Democrats say they want, which is far far less than what Greta Thumberg is saying, is insane.

Also essentially means destroying society. I know it will never happen, because people have shown me that they're not willing to even give up anything, you know, in this fight against climate change. They just want to force others to do it. So I mean, it's insane. I don't know. I can't make sense of it. I haven't been able to make

sense of it at all. I mean, you know, we've gone through these these Mathusian people who think the world's always ending, they're always with us, they're always wrong and it never ends kind and someone else too sort of

throw my hands up in the air. But but but the journalists from elite publications who who are we should all listen to bet A Thumberg and you're not allowed to criticize her, even when she said it's one thing to like to be on the climate change train, but the specific divest from fossil fuel companies that is essentially like telling every human being, um you know, just like go go jump off a bridge like it's it's completely insane, and that they they make it sound like the fossil

fuel companies are forcing you to use fossil fuel or something. I mean, this is the energy that's affordable, it's it's it's it's efficient. We use it to do everything in our lives that you can imagine, and it makes our lives better in almost every way, and we treat them like their Nazis or something. I mean, you know, they don't force you don't have to use all go out into the woods, camp use wood whatever you want. But you know, um, the idea that that society should be

compelled to divest from them is just it's ridiculous. It's something someone who doesn't understand basic economics doesn't care. Yea, And yeah, I mean I know that I'm asking you for kind of thought experiment. I mean, if you and I sat down with the editorial board of the New York Times and and and we try to get them to do like I feel like they would, well, what would they say. Would they disagree with that I can't understand this, Well, they would walk it back and they

would say, yes, of course that's a little much. You know, right away, we have to work towards that. It's always working towards that. I don't actually want to work towards that at all. I mean, people, I'm I'm I don't know. I mean, I believe in climate change, that there's change in the climate. I just I don't think it's a big deal. Yeah, I just don't care. Yeah, I just

don't care either. Okay, We're I don't know, all right, So now let's get to I mean, Tucker last night how to shout out the end of his show to Glenn Greenwall pruser Mark please say clip seven and Greenwalder, reporter of the Intercept, has been on the show many times. He's charged in Brazil yesterday. He's been accused of committing a series of crimes for printing text messages between government

leaders as part of an expose unofficial corruption there. Now it's convicted, he faces a long term in some of the harshest prisons in the world. He could die in them. Greenwald is an American citizen, could probably find a way to fly back to New York tomorrow if he wanted, but he's refusing. He's pledging to stay in Brazil and fight, and we're not surprised by that. At the height of the Russia hystoria, Greenwalds should virtually alone on the American

left and calling the witch hunt what it was. Dozens of times he came to this channel to say what he thought was true, at great personal cost to himself. Former friends hated him for breaking ranks. They denounced him. They tried to get him bounced out of his job. Even now, as he faces jail, some are still attacking him. But he bowled forward anyway because he thought it was the right thing to do. He's that tough, and that's self directed and something to admire, and we do admire it.

Glenn Greenwald. We are rooting for you tonight. Some strong words from Tucker there on Glenn's behalf. I just did David first, tell everybody what's going on, and then I want to get into where are all the big journals on this one? Yeah, I mean I should preface this by just saying that I strongly, strongly disagree with Filling Greenwald on a number of issues, and some of them I actually I find the testable. Yeah, he's heinous. He's heinous on Israel, he's heinous on terrorists. I've debated him

on MSNBC on jehotism. He drinks Gehotism is basically our fault, and I'm like, yeah, explain that to you know, hindus, Explain it a whole anyway. Who over his view of history and his view sometimes Jews in general. I don't like it at all, But we'll say this, he's a principal guy. You know, he doesn't It's not like he just he's not partisan at all. And I think he's a principled guy, and I think he's a journalist, so meaning I don't you know, he breaks stories, he's broken

and help break stories in this country. That has changed the way we think about government surveillance. And that's something that you have to take into account when you talk about him. So now he's in Brazil and he lives there, his husband is there, his husband is a member of the of the opposition. We have to mention, of course, that he's a political player. He's ideological, he's not, you know, someone by his journalists, but that doesn't mean that what he does is not true or the things that he

exposes aren't true. And you know, the government of Brazil has been embarrassed by him because he's it's kind of a convoluted story, but he is. He has text messages between government officials that brought down the last government, you know, and so convoluted. But what he has done is what journalists should be doing. You know. He's found information that people, powerful people were hiding and he and he brought it

to the public's attention. Um and you know, and now he's being charged with sort of like some kind of hacking law that he's helped a criminal conspiracy. You know, as part of a criminal conspiracy. Um. But in my view, what he's done is what journalists do here all the time, which is uh yeah, yeah, and then protect them and

protect their sources, which any journalists would do. I don't know how much of this you've seen, but I've certainly seen there are people on the left, journalists on the left who are kind of celebrating this or are kind of saying, you know, haha, too bad for you about Glenn Greenwald, which I just think is a reminder that these people that pretend to have principles and the word

in the realm of left wing journalism have none. Oh yeah, I mean, give me a right they You know, during the Obama administration, you had the administrations spying and on journalists, who had them charging journalists as well, and and and and throwing a guy who had made a YouTube video that upsets some people in jail, things like that, and you hardly heard a peep from them. Their their concern is very skewed in one direction, and only under certain presidents.

David didn't. I didn't see the things you saw. I don't know if people were mocking it or not, but um, I haven't seen anyone actually where many people stand up for him. I mean, this would be a huge story if if it had been a journalist who they still liked, you know. And now that's the other part of this too, like why aren't why aren't journalists, I mean, journalists circle the wagons around Manu Raju of CNN because a senator

said like you're a hack. They acted like this was you know, this was like, you know, the worst thing that had ever happened in American journalism, or at least you know, in a while, and that was nothing. And this is a guy who is an American still, who does do some real journalism. You and I agree, some of his opinions are horrifically bad, but he does do real journalism, and there's like, you know nothing, And I think I think it's because he's considered a traitor because

of Russia illusion. I think that's what that's all about. Yeah, I agree. I mean, I think you have journalists in this country acting like their lives are in danger when they're covering Donald Trump. If you know, I forgot the name of Acosta's book, but I mean it's so laughable and they act as if, you know, as if they've they can't do their jobs. Meanwhile, I don't think the Trump at administration has done anything to inhibit journalists from

doing their job. They're out there bashing the guy all the time, which is fine. They were allowed to do that. But when you have someone who is well known but a traitor to his you know people, uh you know, being he who might might end up in jail for

doing journalism, there's very little outcry. It reminds me a little bit, though not to the same extent of how when you know, they sort of turned on Christopher Hitchins when he decided that here you know, you know that that used for the Iraq War, etc. Well, and geotism was like actually a real problem for everybody, and not just not just something that's a legacy of colonialism that if we ignore it'll all go away and it's fine. Yeah, right right, I remember those days too, Dave, are you

writing on this weekend? Nasherview dot com? Check it out for everybody, But what are you writing on? I don't know. I wrote a piece that was just released in the magazine that's about sort of how we view the world as if it's as we're always heading in the wrong direction and things are getting worse when in fact, things are getting better for most people in the world. And it's this weird disconnect that I don't really understand things are getting I tell you that things are getting better

all the time. Yeah, I mean that's the that's the headline. I just do you remember did you really go on road trips when you were a kid? Of course, do you remember what it was like? I remember going on family road trips and like trying to find something that wasn't fast food, that was like edible food was like a mission. You know, you had to like know somebody with some local knowledge or whatever. Now I know this is a small thing, but there's amazing food like everywhere

in America. It's everywhere. It's a you know, going to a Chinese food place would be like the exotic food that you went to when you were a kid, like I Thai food, Afghan for whatever. You know, you can get whatever you want right now, Sonny that you mentioned. I mean, you know, I talk about a cell phone and all be using things that are in a cell phone. You know, It's like when we used to drive as kids, they'd have to unfurl a giant map and figure out

where you were going, argue. You probably lost you know, hundreds of hours in your life just arguing over how to get to places. And now you literally have a satellite system in your phone, in your car, wherever you are. It's just amazing. It is, indeed, David Arsha, Well, I'll check that one out because I like that because the world is getting better. And people I tell people they watched they listen to the show, watch the show that because they need to hear it because everyone's always like,

we're all gonna die, not not true. Well, we are all going to die, but the world's getting better all the time. We all are gonna die. Yeah, David, Well, I know that one. David Harsani, everybody, thanks David, thank you. You're in the Freedom Hud. This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast. They're really trying to take it away from him again. I mean when Hillary says nobody likes him, nobody likes her, That's why she lost. I mean, nobody

liked her. She had every advantage. She had this big machine behind her, she had the Obama, she had she had everybody behind and it wasn't even close. You look at three or six to two twenty three. She's the one that people don't like him, and I think if you if I had my choice in terms of personality, I might take him over her, but I probably would

take neither. Biden is going to be interesting because he can't string together a sentence and if he makes it, if he makes it, you know, he seems to have a little bit of an edge right now. But it's it's rapidly disappearing. Bernie is surging, There's no question about it. And Bernie seems to be the one the party wants. But my attitude is, whoever it is, it is, whoever it is, I think it's probably gonna well, well, I'll

stop making election predictions. But I did like his point here that it's funny for Hillary Clinton to say no one likes Bernie because I mean, you know, I guess that's you know, Democrats like Hillary Clinton as a politician, but personally, from everything I've heard from people spend a lot of time around her, she is not a likable human being. That is. That is the consensus that I've heard from many many folks. I don't I've never met her. I don't think you'll ever talk to me. But that's fine,

not some not some big surprise. Not some big surprise there. Um, so we'll have to see. By the way, producer Mark, you see that you see that Eli Manning is retiring and that I dropped some I dropped some sports knowledge on the Twitter. It didn't really drop knowledge. Whoa whoa whoa hold on I had that Eli Manning. This is my tweet for everybody home. Eli Manning. Say what you will about him, but he won two of the greatest victories in the history of football in two thousand and

seven and two thousand. You even watch those two games? I did? Wow. Yeah, See, that's why I knew about them, because I watched those Because that congratulations. You live in New York? Can you know that Eli Manning two seven, two thousand and eleven won those two? Do you remember the two thousand and seven Super Bowl? That might have been the most exciting sports event I've ever watched on TV anywhere it was? I mean, could you at least agree that that may have been the best football game

you've ever seen then I've ever seen? Yeah, yeah, there are better scene and I've seen you absolutely And also to beat the knew that Patriots, who I remember where the invincible team. They were eighteen. Yes, to beat them in the Super Bowl was like unthinkable and yet Eli Manning pulled it off. So do you consider him an all time great quarterbo? No, he's terrible. This is my hot take on this. I don't know if we have time. Yeah,

you got about a minute. Okay. My hot take on this is that he's the most average quarterback in NFL history, other than the eight games he played to win those two super Bowls with two playoff runs. He's one hundred and seventy one and one hundred and seventy one in his career. That is the definition of average. And he's the all time leader in interceptions throne. That's not a good thing. I did not know that he'll only get into the Hall of Fame because he was Super Bowl

MVP twice. Well, I mean those are two of the most incredible wins, which they are. I agree. I appreciate it. As a Giants fan, I appreciate it. Is it is it about rings? Is it about like overall stats? You know, when you look at your life, you look back at the career, what matters more. You appreciate the rings, but overall, watching him for that long he wasn't very good. Who's the Giants quarterback? Now? Wow? Daniel Jones? Wow, I don't even know that from Duke. I'm so I'm assuming he's

not very good because the Giants are not very good. Um, he was a rookie last Year's all right? Fair enough, Maybe we'll get a little bit better. See Buck knows some things about the sports. That's all I wanted to talk about there, So we got that out. Thanks for listening to the Bus Sesson Show podcasts. Remember to subscribe on Apple podcast at the iHeartRadio app or wherever you get your podcasts. Like Soft Butter on Warm Toast. Time to spread some freedom coast to coast. It's time for

roll call. Indeed, it is Facebook dot com slash Buck Sexton for roll call purposes. Also a team Buck at I heartmedia dot com. That is how we get this party going. That's how we get a crack olagin. Jean is going to kick us off here. Buck, you have an amazing swoop on climate change. Of course, the climate is changing, otherwise we would live in ice or lava or something. But are we doing it as humans? No, of course not. That's stupid and arrogant. We got out

of the ice age without cars? All right, John, I like, I like where your head's at on that one. I think I'm pretty well aligned with you on this. All right, let's see what we have next here. Mark Buck the Beast is a nineteen eighty eight movie about a tank crew lost in Afghanistan. Actually pretty good for a relatively unknown movie. By the way, producer Mark has become essential to the show twenty seven going on fifty two. Somehow works.

I am twenty six. Thank you for generation Z. They still check his idea when he tries to buy beer. That's only because I have a baby face. Yeah, but like you're you're young, and you're young, I'm gonna be forty letty s year old old man. I feel like you look older because of the beard. Yeah, that's true too. So I showed somebody photo of me, even from two years ago, without the beard, and and she was like, oh my gosh, you're really young. If you share, you

get carded. Maybe. Yeah, that's why I got And I got a couple of grays in the beard now and I want to, like, you know, sort of wax them out so people can see them a little bit more. Not And I pull them out. I mean like make them more prominent, so that looks like I've pluck them. No, no, no, I mean like I want them to be. You know, wax them out was a wrong phrase. I meant like, tease them out so people can say, hey, look at that gray bearded fellow. He must have some wisdom. Just

die your whole beard gray. That would be quite a look. If I had the swoop one color and the beard another. I think some people do. The beard does go your Your hair color changes more rapidly on your facial hair than on your ice. You see, look at Ted Cruz's kind of got like a wolverine beard. Like I give the guy credit like the wolverine beard for him works. It's like a Silverish show. You remember hect you weren't we weren't you weren't yet working the show. He actually

gave me a beard chat out once on Twitter. Yes, I've heard you talking about it. Welcome to I know it was very exciting for me, said thank you, Senator Cruz. Welcome to the the beard club. Um, all right, Chris is And of course he asked producer Mark essential to the show. He already knows that, And I keep telling him. I'm only I'm the only one allowed to have a big head in here, too big. Perhaps I'm so Chris is

next up. Let's see if he has a a It's not a paper straw though, right, Let's just let's just make sure. I don't are you saying I disintegrate you? No, I just just just making sure that you're not one of those paper strawst You're a real straw. It gets a job done. I had a friend sent me from her office that they just transitioned to paper straws, and she's like, can you can you do something about this? It's like no. Unfortunately, that was another thing about San Francisco.

No straws, well, paper straws. If you wanted paper straw it does not. It is not okay. No, I'd rather drink a drink with no straw do what I did? Do you leave it? Do you leave straws in your alcohol mixed beverages? Yeah? Where do you pull it out? Because you think that like the little mini straws? Yeah? I like that, Yeah, just because it's with the ice over your face. Drink out of the mini straws? Yeah, absolutely, Oh I do. I don't know about that we'll see

there's gonna be some people at home. We're gonna wait put two or three in it. So it's like you're drinking out of a normal strack when the option for a normal straw isn't there. Wow, you triple up on mini straw. Yeah, that's one way to go. Chris writes, Hey, Bucks, since you were talking college basketball yesterday, if you are a producer Mark, want to experience real college basketball, you guys have to come watch San Diego State, ranked number

four in the country right now. We have season tickets if you ever make it back out here. Well, Chris, thanks so much. Maybe producer Mark, we'll take you up on that. Do you know about this San Diego State team? Do you know about these guys? I was unaware, but good for them. Number four in the country's impressive. I know enough about numbers too. I'll start I'll see them in March madness when I start looking at college. Are you do you um? Are you like a do you

do the thing where you bat bracket? Yeah? Yes, the bracket. Oh yeah, I'm in some bracket pools. Yeah. Have you ever won? No? I'm usually very bad fantasy football guy. Yeah, big fantasy football so my brothers, you would like hang out. The brothers a lot more than me. They're both really into fantasy football and very good at it. That's the only thing I really wager on. I actually won a league this year, one of my three leagues. Really I did.

Who's your starting QB? H Lamar Jackson? So that's why. Okay, he had a good years. Lamar Jackson's gonna be the MVP of the league. Oh yeah, going, good choice, then, Jim GM slash producer Mark Um So yeah, I know, Well maybe if if we get out there, we'd love to take you up on those tickets to San Diego State. Sounds like fun, Jim, right, Um, I listen to you at six pm every day? Great show. What time do

you tape? Jim, Thanks for listening. Live out there, and we we go, we go as much, we go as much on air, as close to time as we possibly can. Let's see here, Scott. In all fairness, you have to take what Bernie says in context if you're trying to transform America into a socialist, communist paradise, and he's highly likely correct that Donald J. Trump is one of the

most dangerous presidents ever. I see, so what Scott's saying is that from Bernie's perspective, Trump is super dangerous because Bernie views Trump as a threat to the socialist takeover of America. That Bernie is trying to you know, I kind of see what you're saying. I mean, I still think it's a it's a grotesque exaggeration because that's remember Bernie Sanders is trying to transform America. Bernie Sanders is not trying to preserve America as it is and the

greatness of America as it is. He wants something radically different. But I remember he keeps saying political revolution. I mean, you don't call for revolution if you think things are great, you just want to do it a little bit better. But yeah, Scott, I like the outside the box thinking, Sharon, if they decided to call new witnesses, they should call Obama. Did Ukraine us I'm sorry, did Ukraine request US military aid when the Russian military marched into Crimea? Did you

give them military aid? Forget about Hunter? Well, Sharon, I think that that that that wouldn't happen. But I I appreciate where your heads out. And they would say that that was a decision that the president is allowed to make without the whole turning point here for the liberal argument is that it's about the personal benefit that they say Trump would receive. All because of this alleged personal benefit, it is illicit. It is elicit for the president, it

was not allowed. It was wrong for him to ask Zelenski for information. So there we have it. Here we go, Andrea right, we were served Mongolian Marmot at a diplomatic event, Marmot's Carrie, bubonic plague, and a couple of tourists died last year from eating it. Wow, that's not good. Well, that's not That's not the way I would want to go. Bubonic plague. That is scary, it's not fun. All right, interesting trivia. Thank you, Andrea. I did not I did

not know that. Jack Right's love the show. I listened on Spotify. You're improcer, Mark, have a good rapport. You keep doing the voice impersonations and fighting the fight. Good brother, your podcast is number one with me. I turned my brother into in law rather onto it in Kenya and he loves it. He's amazed at how awful news is here. And when he gets on Sky News in the BBC over there, I sent him straight with the Buckster. Well, Jack, you're bringing up a very important thing here, which is

you got to pass the fuck. You got to tell people about the Bucks Exton Show. Your word of mouth is what makes this show grow. You know, we don't. I don't have billboards all over the country. I don't get to go on a cable news show every night and promote my stuff. So you guys are the You guys are the frontline words spreaders. If you will, of the Bucks Exton Show, you are my evangelists for the

Freedom Hut. So please do tell people about it. If you're ever board and you're like, I don't know what I'm gonna say to this person in my office, or if you're on a date, even I don't know if bringing me up on a date it's going to be helpful or not. That's a risk you take. But you know you'd never Oh what do you got? Did you just insinuate that on a date people should be like, hey, you should listen to the Bucks X, Yes I did, indeed,

Like this is your first date. I'm saying if you run out of stuff, you know, if you run out of stuff and you get there, I'm no offense. Buck, no I'm just trying to say, but like if that, at that point you get to figure out if if the lady or the guy depending on you know too, if they love freedom you on a date. Yeah, but if you want to know if they'll free, which you should know right away. By the way, nowadays, if you listen to this show, chances are you don't want to

date some comie. I'm just saying that's what I'm here for, so you can really use me as a litmus test. There are plenty of couples out there that complete I know, right wing to it happens. It happens all the time, but these days it's getting harder. There are all these stories about people whose marriages have been ruined sayings of Trump. So do you really want on a first date to ruin it like that? Yeah, you want to get it

over the right away. I guess that's fair. Yeah, you want to bring up the buck sex and show on a date and you'll find out if this person is in fact a Sandernista and that's what you want to know. Sure, Yeah, see, okay, Yeah, I'm standing behind that one. I still say that if your date gets to the point that you're bringing up The Buck Sex and Show probably shouldn't be on that date anyway. I mean, people bring up Netflix shows completely different.

I don't think it's that different. This show is David too. I watch Ozark, I watch The Buck Sex and Show, same thing. I think it is. So listen to me, producer. Mark's gonna get a code read when no one's looking. Jeffrey, Hey, Buck, Greetings from Spokane, Washington, home of the Gonzaga Bulldogs. Glad to have you back. Ben was great in your absence, but the Freedom Hut faith will neither. Daily Dose of the Swoop. On yesterday's show, you played a a clip

of Greta in Davos spewing stats about climate change. Do you think she really understands any of the numbers stats that she's claiming or she just reciting when she's memorized from a script. It's sad to see a sixteen year old kid so wrapped up in climate change hoaks. Keep up the great work, Buck, ps high five. Your swoop is amazing and you keep us warm and safe at night. Jeffrey has a fantastic note, a fantastic message. Greta's seventeen.

By the way, I saw that she must have just turned seventeen recently, Jane, am I the only one who thinks it's strange that while the Damns go on and on about Trump asking Ukraine to investigate corruption, not one Democrat has asked what corruption? Because they know Joe Barry and the rest of them were up to their eyeballs

in corruption in Ukraine. Hey, Jane, I mean, that's why I had John Salmon on yesterday, because he's been looking into this, and I just don't know if we're ever going to really get the answers that we need to get on what was going on in Ukraine because there are a lot of people that are very invested in us not finding out that answer. But we'll still keep

keep trying, keep looking for it. I wish I could go over there and dig for it myself, but my Ukrainian is it's not it's not that it's rusty, it's non existent. So I'm not sure that I'd be able to be that effective as an investigative journalist running around in Kiev, which is whatever it calls Kiev now, So I guess I gotta go to restaurant order Chicken Kiev instead of Chicken Kiev. But do you even know what is chicken Kiev? Do you even know it's a thing.

I know that people are Kiev was a city, it is, But there's like chicken Kiev is a is a dish? You know? Do you like Hamburger is named for a place? Sure? Do you even know what it is? Frank Footer know as I'm saying, I don't know what chicken Kiva has been. Like Muffalo Wing, Yeah, exactly, exactly name for Buffalo, New York, which basically is in Canada, and when you really think about it, it's really far away. I have a friend that likes to go to Buffalo often and he says

the wings are actually as good as advertised. Well, there you go it. Hope they have good buffaloing. Sure, and now we've got on the roll call Glenn. After this impeachment is over, would it be possible to have a few discussions on cooperating with Russia to have a naval base in the Mediterranean. Oh? Man, I don't think that's gonna happen. I think the relationship with Russia is pretty fraid right now. But we'll have to see how this impeachment thing plays out. It ain't over to the fat man.

Let us say that over to the fat ladies things? Is that like a microaggression? Now? You know? Allow to say these things anymore? Just saying it ain't over till Producer Mark sings. Producer Mark, have we ever heard you sing? No? And you never will that guy. You gotta vote for Producer Mark to sing in the Freedom Hut at subpoint we're gonna get you gotta pick a song. No, We're gonna have to like raise money for charity, and Producer

Mark will sing if we get like enough. I have self awareness to know that I'm bad at singing, so I don't see I'll tell you this when I come into the office sometime or the hut, you know, the studio here sometimes occasional I'm running a little behind occasional, very very busy with many things. So Producer Mark starts starts giving me too much of a hard time for that. I'll just start singing, maybe a Disney classic, maybe maybe you know the Bloodhound Gang song or you know what

you know. I'll just sing a song and then then I'll do this, and then I'll put on whistling, which he knows drives me into it. Is that your favorite song? Ever whistled by flow writer. That's that's whistling makes me completely lose my mind. And you know that. So see he fights dirty? Do he fights very dirty? Philip war film The Big Red One. Not saying it's top five, but you should see it. Also, Valkomer plays a secret service agent in Spartan. So not an actual war film.

Huh Okay, I've never even heard of Spartan, So this is Sparta. Jesse writes buck Sexton team, I'm the communications director for somebody would love to get on the show. Okay, um, we will reach out, Jesse, thank you so much for Ron Burgundy. I am Ron Burgundy. Um, so yeah, you know I will tell you. And this is an unpopular opinion I have. I do not find I do not find Anchorman as funny as everybody else I know people, I'm like, I don't. Last time Will Ferrell was good.

It is the last time he was even remotely good bye? How do people stop? How do you go from being so funny to so not funny? Him and Sandler did it for a long time. Finally Sandler came out, but Eddie Murphy went from being the funniest person in Hollywood, and I heard his new movie on Netflix is good. I have Dolomite is my name. I don't even know what that and I watched him host SNL. That was actually pretty good. I mean, it is amazing if people go from being super funny to not funny at all.

Robert writes belzerin Dead, He's just old, seventy five years old. Yeah. I came to the conclusion that Wikipedia just has up weird, like I think his brother died or has years active, so it makes you think that he's dead to feel better than because I felt a little bad for making fun of him. So now you can call him a lib or whatever, lib bells or that guy's a lib um. Let's see you get there, Billy. Hello, Buck. The Dems

are just putting on her side show right now. It's Michelle Obama's going to come out the last minute to save them. She'll get all the different intersectional vote, a lot of and a lot of white votes. I hope I'm wrong, but that's what I think will happen. She's been promoting her book. I saw your comment on Tucker and you are correct. Thank you for your work, Billy, Thank you for writing in man. I appreciate it. Well, that's gonna be yeah, another fantastic Buck Sexton show in

the books. Very exciting stuff, if I may say so. I'll be back here tomorrow. It's gonna be amazing as it always is. Please do tell somebody I. Oh, by the way, subscribe to our YouTube channel. How do they do that? Producer mark the show? You yeah, the Buck Section show on YouTube. Subscribe please till tomorrow She'll tie
