M you are entering the freedom hunt if you thought the mid terms are over. Unfortunately, my friends, you're wrong. The Democrats look like if they are trying shenanigans and up to stealing some of these elections. Let's get into that, and also some crazy court decisions today. The hashtag judiciary is alive and well, trying to stop Trump at all costs. Out more coming up on The buck Sexton Show. This is the buck Sexton Show, where the mission or mission
is to decode what really matters with actionable intelligence. Magnorma stake American, you're a great American Again The buck Sexton Show begins analys No, it's up to him great and Robert Muller, what a stupid question? That is? What a stupid question. But I watched you a lot. You ask a lot of stupid questions. Welcome to the buck Sexton Show. Oh man, uh now, now I know there's debate about this. We've got a lot of big things to talk about.
The Democrats look like they're trying to steal a Senate seat in a governorship in Florida, maybe even a Senate seat out in Arizona. We got a lot to talk about today. On the show. Also some crazy bad judicial decisions hashtag never Trump judiciary in effect, and we've got we've got some big things coming on. Come off to that. But I wanted to start with this one because I just find it. Find the whole thing, uh, pretty pretty amusing. And I know there's some disagreement that some people say,
Oh no, Buck. First of all, there's this thing that there's no such thing as a stupid question. That is false. I want to I want to set a ground roller for the show. That is not a true thing. I don't know why people say that all the time. There are so it doesn't mean that, you know, you should be mean to people when they don't know something, Right, I asked questions all the time. We all have many things we have to learn. But it is in fact
possible to ask a stupid question. So let's let's establish that baseline, and then let's let's let's break down for a moment there. What the question that was just today? Was the president about to hop on hop on the the the chopper And that was pretty close and h he was stopped into a little impromptu press conference or whatever, and he wasn't. I you could tell he's a little of a mood today. He wasn't having any of it. You know, he's ready, he's ready to smack him some
punks around a little bit rhetorically speaking. Everybody calmed down. And but think about this question that he was asked. Ask him, is Muller? Is the Muller problem gonna get reined in by Whittaker, this new acting Attorney General. I mean, I guess that it's a valid question, except for the fact that one he's been asked us a million times already. To think about what it would mean if he said yes, then he'd be in the in the press's eyes, at least,
admitting to obstructing the Mueller probe. This would be like saying, Mr President, you know, is it your plan to suborn perjury in the Russia collusion investigation. I mean, at some point the question, you can ask it, but it's a
stupid and kind of disrespectful question, you know. The the only way that he could know if Whittaker is going to reign in the Mueller probe, as if he had given directions to Whittaker to reign in the Muller probe, which would mean that he was interfering in that probe, which was, as we know, would send libs to def Con one. You know, Russia is taking over? Oh my gosh, what are we gonna do? So I do think it's uh, it's a it was not an excellent question, that's to
be sure, stupid question. I think. I think a fair to say stupid question. And I know questions exactly and I know some conservative disagree with me that that's fine, but there are a lot of you know, is it is it a good question? When Jim Acosta says I'd like to challenge you on something, sir, Okay, hold on, you remember the press. You're in the White House Press score. You're supposed to ask questions. You're not supposed to have a debate with the president. You are a rude, terrible person,
absolutely true. Cost is a rude, terrible person, total total punk ass. Really is um? Oh, the President had some words about a Costa. I think Jim of Costa is a very unprofessional man. I say he does this with everybody. He gets paid to do that. You know, he gets paid to first and he's a very unprofessional guy. Whether it was me or Ronald Reagan or anybody else, he would have done the same thing. Uh. Look, I don't think he's a smart person, but he's got a loud
voice and he had further away. Wait, David, do you mind if I answered the question? And as far as I'm concerned, I haven't made that decision, but it could be others. Also, when you're in the White House, this is a very sacred place. To me, this is a very special place. You have to treat the White House with respect. You have to treat the presidency with respect. I think that's completely valid. I don't know why it should be a surprise to anyone that the president wants
to be treated like the president. You never saw anything like this. You know. The backdrop of all of this stuff we're seeing with Trump and the press is that now they want to put it on there. Oh, we're not serious journalist, the First Amendment or we're all about it. They want to put on those serious journal hats and
the speaking truth to power stuff. We were all alive for those of you listening to the show, at least for the nine years of Obama, the year that he ran and then the eight years he was in office when they didn't ask any hard questions. A hard question for Obama was anything other than in terms of, you know, the level of of what they thought was a hard question was you know, how does it feel to be
so amazing all the time? If somebody said, you know, in President Obama, you're almost perfect, well then they would have had to stop the question right there because they would have been so disrespectful to Obama. What do you mean he's almost perfect? He is perfect? How dare you, sir? A lot of that, A lot of that, and we remember it and and that that is not going to change. Right. We understand that the press corps showed us who they were under Obama and are showing us who they are
once again in the other direction under Trump. A bunch of activist partisans masquerading as objective truth tellers and guardians of accuracy in politics and information, and you know, and and the mandarins of our of our democratic norms, you know what, all this other stuff, all this really self congratulatory, high falutin nonsense that they engage in. Um. But he also, by the way, he also had he had some words for for April Trump was really he was in fuego
to day. He also had sports about April Ryan. The same thing with April Ryan. I watched her get up. I mean, he talked about somebody that's a loser. She doesn't know what the hell she's doing. She gets publicity and then she gets a pay raiser, she gets to contract with I think CNN. But she's very nasty and she shouldn't be. She shouldn't be. You've got to treat the White House and the Office of the Presidency with respect. Yep, you do have to treat the White House the office
of the President. He was respecting. Liberals refused to do it, mostly because they really believe that he is not the president. I mean that's they've convinced themselves that he's not actually the president. But I like that he points out that these people who are holding I mean, Jim Acosta actually took a selfie today with the Eiffel Tower in the background. It was like, hey, like here, I am doing my job covering the president in Paris hashtag First Amendment. It's like, Jim,
you know this is all to your benefit. There's not a none of this is hard, none of this is scary for him when it comes to his dealings with the president, and people said, oh, but what about that this thread or of that threat. I'm like, everyone I know in media gets threats. They get to a certain level, they all get right left, they all get threats, more threats from a left. But you know, everybody gets threats.
Everybody has their security concerns. If you're in the public eye, you know there there can be crazy to come after you. True for politicians, true for media people, true for actors. So they just very selectively invoked this like, oh but look the CNN journalists that are constantly feeling like they're under threat, under siege from a hostile Trump supporters, Well,
what do you think it was? What do you think it was like to be a Republican in the years of Obama when there was one cable news channel that had full spectrum distribution. Okay, if some of you yell at me when I say that, what about the Blaze and what about One America? I know, but they're not in the hundred million homes that's considered full distribute. Um there, you know, and probably I don't know how many they're in right now, but they're in a fraction of that.
The only one that has full distributions Fox News, and President Obama just would snide ly undermine Fox News without a second thought, say you know that it's propaganda. He President Obama would call out individual radio hosts for you know, basically hurting our democracy. But you know, we didn't hear a lot of crying. Got the First Amendment. Then these people, these people on the left, the New York Times, Washington Post, CNN, MSNBC, complex,
these people are frauds, their clowns, and their liars. That's that's what you got. I mean, you know, I mean not all of them on his nice people, but the big ticket players at these places. Yep, they are. They are engaged in a lot of dishonesty. Okay, now let's get to some of the I just wanted to smack around the media a little bit. Let let's get to some of the book. You're in the media and not really, I mean, this is the freedom hunt. This is uh,
you know what it is. I love how these people think that they are check on power by trashing the President and Republicans all the time in the media, But they despise other people in the media who are a check on their power when they have a dominance of market share in the media and platforms and personnel, so that you know, they don't want any check on their power, but they want to be a check on other people's power. Isn't that isn't that convenient for all of them? But okay,
now what you care about? Even more Democrats are straight up trying to steal some elections here. I can't prove it yet, but I'm pretty sure. Ye notice how also the usage of without evidence this is this has become a big tell. Anytime you see a news organization that refers to without evidence in a headline or something, it always refers to something that's favorable to the left and as a criticism of the right. But they don't do it.
You know, here's a fun one. The Kavanaugh allegations without evidence were aired today in the Senate because that's also a true statement. You never heard that, though, did you never heard that one? No? No, no, But you see that with all these other things. Uh, there are a few races right now, Cinema versus McSally and Arizona and um Gillham versus De Santists in Florida and Scott versus I'm blanking you know the other, the other guy with Nelson, right, yeah, Nelson,
thank you, Scott versus Nelson in Florida. Those races have now been called into question. Originally and we were told the Republicans won all three. Isn't it interesting? Let's just start from this perspective that the only three races that were called and are now coming into question because of irregularities, at a minimum irregularities, all three of the Mike were called for Republicans. I'm not saying that's impossible, but I
do think that that is statistically significant. There's not a single race that was called for a Democrat that they go all It looks like the Republican might win. Republican and you don't have this expectation that an army of left wing, highly paid, uh legal mercenaries are going to show up and try to but you know the Democrats are doing that stuff. You know that that's underway. Governor Scott straight up called this out in Florida. Here's what
he had to say. There are sixties sixty seven counties in Florida. Only these two counties are involved in the Shenanigans. Simplie that this is simply ranking covenance. That is clearly true, but would also being be naive to not realize that they could be trying to overrule the will of the voters of Florida. This is where I have to have to explain for a moment that this notion that it
is hard to commit voter fraud is garbage. It's actually, if you understand the statutes, for example, in Florida, it's really easy. And the chance of you being caught, especially in these early stages before that all them, the monitors go down, everything else, the chance of being caught is
effectively zero. Producer, Mike. If I'm sitting here and I'm I'm a you know, if somebody who's in the on the board of Elections or whatever, and I'm actually manually handling a whole bunch of different you know, uh, you know that all you have to do if you create a little tear, or you create some some stray markings on a ballot, you you are legally, in Florida allowed to destroy that ballot and replace it with a new ballot, which you are, of course supposed to mark the same
way the initial ballot was marked. How could they prove that? How do they know you're starting a you're taking an old ballot and you're replacing it with another ballot that you are the one that gets to actually put the final say so on. There's no there's no audit trail of of of who does what with those things and the old but you're allowed to destroy the old one in that case. So guess what, it's not hard. The
chance of being caught or non exist. And this is also why lips hate voter I D so much and and are so opposed to any voter security measures because they don't want to be possible for anyone to figure out what's going on here. I mean Al Franken stole that was a stolen sentency. This already happened. He stole a senency from Norm Coleman in Minnesota. That is what happened. You go back and read it, You're like, I cannot
believe they got away with this, But they did. And you and Al Franken is a senator for years and years, Senator Frankin cheated, cheated in that election. Oh look at this. I just happened to have a trunk full of ballots that happened to overwhelmingly go for You know, it's always like the kid in the class. You've got to be smart enough to cheat. Well, you know, you have to mix it. You can't do all of the newly found ballots go one way because that's a little too obvious.
Just like if you're the kid that's always getting DS Mike, and you steal somebody's homework and you hand it the next day. You don't hand it in to get a hundred. It's probably a bad idea. You handed and you get like, you know, you just take a little little A minus maybe a B plus on it. You know, you get like a like a ninety. You want to go off the full one hundred. Because it's too obvious. You gotta throw in some of the things here. And by the way,
I do not approve eating on your homework. Kids, don't do that, stay in school, don't do drugs. We got more on this Florida stuff. Also, my buddy Charles Cook, remember him, he's got the awesome British. Oh my gosh, who has a better British accent? Charles or raheem? We could have an accent off at some point, like have them both on and I have them both like read Churchill speeches or something on air. No that I actually
forget that. Have them both read like Paddington Bear Yeah, there you go like this, like the Adventures of the Adventures of Paddington Bear or Winnie the Pooh, and see who has it better, Like I'm so British, like Charles and Raheim are both their neck and neck on that. By the way, Rahim is gonna be in for me one day next week. I gotta travel to give a speech. They'll be in next Thursday. On radio. We're going to the Lady. I I'll come back. We got more on elections,
on Whittaker di o J, some crazy judicial decisions. Oh, and the the uh. Some of the folks from Black Rifle are coming to hang out. Actually, some of the former door kickers now coffee connoisseurs and entrepreneurs, Matt Best and Emon Hayfer in the flesh here in studio, up and end, I see, We'll be right back. There was no collusion as a whole hope. This was a thing set up by the Democrats, just like they set up
other things. When you look at what's going on in Florida, when you look at what's going on in lots of different locations, the Russian investigation is a hope, as a phony hope. I didn't speak to Russians. The fact is I was a much better candidate than Hillary Clinton. I worked much hotter. I went to the right place since she went to the wrong places because she didn't know what the hell she was doing. I did a great job. I was a great candidate. She was a bad candidate.
I went to Wisconsin, I went more to Michigan. I went to Pennsylvania. She didn't do a good job. This has nothing to do with Russians. It's a Russian hope. When the president just lets it rip. By the way, that's my my favorite. Trump is like, I don't give a what Trump, you know, he just and that was. He was in that mood to day. I don't know what it was, but he was. And Mike, he even was that way on Twitter. What did you say about
the this he ties in Russia and Florida. I love it absolutely Early this morning he said, uh, you mean they are just now finding votes in Florida and Georgia. But the election was on Tuesday. Let's blame the Russians
and demanded immediate pology from Putin. That's so true, though, you know, but people people who were apoplectic, I mean, we're completely losing their minds about Russian Facebook trolls that we're saying, you know, lock her up about Hillary or something, seem to have no problem whatsoever with Broward Counties violating the law here for the election. I mean, they are breaking the law, and I know that they'll say, well,
no one's really gonna be held accountable. But this is also a place that has a history of not just negligent but even criminal activity when it comes to elections. It's just amazing, it really is, you know, but this is the way the conversation goes. You're like, hey, why isn't Brown County Why aren't those officials complying with laws that are ensure transparency. And then you know the Libs like Joe Scarborough, that's right, he's a Lib. You don't
want them counting every vote, do you. He said that about Marker Ruby today and it's well no, actually, I just think they should obey the law and follow procedures for accuracy. And then it always turns in why you's the racist. It's like, wait, what does that have to do with anything. I just want I just want the election to be the way it's supposed to be. But just like with immigration, if you say, enforced the law.
You're a bad person and a racist with elections. Somehow, if you're a Republican you say, hey, can we obey election laws and make sure that no one is cheating? That's somehow also racist. I don't know how, but that's what they say. Either Freendless Knights is corrupt, stupid, or both. And I think we've got a lot of examples of a variety of those circumstances that it's not just Republicans saying that. Remember Freendness Knights destroyed ballots. It who the
hell destroys ballots? That was Look, she is either doing it? When is she was trying to help Harney boss awesome Conchultz, or because she didn't know any better not to destroy ballots. This is somebody that should not be in office. I am calling on Ken Dantzler, the Secretary of State, to put this office under a receivership of the State of Florida. They do not know what they're doing. You know, her
punzel spun straw into gold. Here you're spinning tens of thousands of ballots out of the air, out of nothing. There's no chain of custody for these ballots. There's no Um, there's no ballot reconciliation where we see at each polling place how many ballots were sent, how many were voted, and how many were turned unvoted. That these are the checks against corruption, and they're hiding, Uh, Snipes is corrupt. Right, that's what because he's referring to Snipes there, who's the
in charge of elections in Broward County? Right, yeah, she's the Broward County Supervisor of elections and they're changing lock her up in the background there, Well, they think lock her upper or she is corrupt. I think it's I think it's Snipes is corrupt. Were they saying lock her up? I don't know. It's just like a Laurel or whatever. Remember what was it Yanni or Laurel? Yeah, it might be maybe you know my ears are old. Look, yeah,
both ways, it's the same idea. I think we can all agree it's either she's corrupt or lock her up or both. Um. But yeah, they're definitely yelling stuff she's already been I mean, as that was Matt Gates, Congressman Gates, who's a fun dude. Um, he's saying that she's already gotten in trouble in the past. We have a caller who just wants to give a shout out because she loves black rifles so much. Who is it, Patty from Alabama?
All right, Patty from Alabama. Apparently you were very enthusiastic about our black rifle friends were coming on the show later. Hey back rock Star you Hey Patty. Um, I'm tipsy five, so you know, Miss Molly has no competition. But anyway, I just wanted to say thank you for turning me onto black rifle. It has it has changed my law. I am sharing it with I've tried several different blends.
I started off with Beyond Black, which I grew up with Navy coffee, which was like molasses, and so I thought that would be right for me, and it was just a little too much. So then I kind of worked my way down to a little smoother blends and I'm at a K forty seven right now. So um, but all the beings they say keep, you know, share with first responders, that sort of thing, and I've been
doing that with my postsman and all that. So I just want to shout out to the black tell the ruffle guys, you know, but Buck, I want to say to you that, um, you were doing you were doing something that and I feel like that you were going to be above and beyond Russian in ball one day. And I want you to know that now because that's that that's gonna happen. You know, that's that's in your future. But you say things in a different way. You know they're no Rush and Sean and all of that. They
do a phenomenal job. And I've been listening to Russia and think, so you know, not a babe in the woods there, But you do it in a different way and you just say it, and you say it just like it is. And this thing in Florida is making me crazy. It's it is Bush all over again. And if only we had Jimes Baker to get back down there. I just pray, hope and pray that we have the equivalent or even better than James Baker to get down there and handle this well. Patty, you're a new favorite person,
So thank you for calling into the show. I'm glad you enjoyed Black Rifle and I will make sure the guys when they come in that they hear your clips. Shieldsie, and thank you so much for calling in. Look at your producer, Mike, you know you pick it picking good
ones today, producer Mike just kidding you. Usually Mike has got all these people on hold, and I'm just I'm just blabbing and blabbing and blabbing and blabbing, and I forget and he gives me in the little hand signal of like, hey, there's other But that's what that's what role call is for darnett. Um, it's easier to write than to uh get to phone calls or to call somebody the phone. I would think, Man, I gotta go to another segment of a second here. I didn't even
I just had. He just gave me the vapors. I just lost my I just lost my training. The thought, Um, where was I on that? Oh? Yes? Uh Whittaker, the dirsh sounded a bit like the buck, which isn't the first time. So here's the issue, right. They keep saying that that Whittaker, the new acting Attorney General, needs to recuse himself. That's what they really want. They want to recuse himself. And the problem with that is that they want Whittaker, based on nothing saying nothing that is really
recusa bull to recuse himself. But they don't have an answer to this, which is, why is it that Rosenstein, who clearly has a conflict of interest as to what is going on here because he was involved in aspects under investigation, why is there nothing there? And the answer is they don't really have an answer. Here is the DIRSH doing his thing. What they want is for the investigation to be conducted by Rod Rosenstein instead of Whittaker. Rod Rosenstein is much much much more subject to recusal
than Whittaker. Rod Rosenstein is a witness. He's the one who wrote the letter, according to the book Fear actually it was maybe his idea initially to a fire. Uh comey. And that's the main subject of the obstruction of justice investigation. And so you have a man overseeing the investigation who is a possible subject or target and certainly a witness of the investigation, and yet none of these state attorney generals are calling for his recusal. Rosenstein's recusal is not
a matter of dispute. He should have been out of this case from day one. Does anybody on the lifet have an answer to that? No, of course not, because fundamentally what this is really all about is what he said, which is that they want Rosenstein. Every analysis that they gave you, everything that they say about this is is for that purpose. They want Rosenstein. They think Rosenstein is anti Trump. Therefore he's the only person that they're comfortable
in the job. You can pick ten other people from the DJ by the way, and they still complain because they want Rosenstein because they know that the fixes in That's that's what they think on the left, No principles, just whining Democrats. There you have it. That's pretty much the show. But then we've got more coming up. I'm just kidding, including our friends from Black Rifles. Stay with me. Okay, So there's a mess in Florida right now. We know
that much. Florida's gonna Florida. But we've got somebody who can actually make some sense of things for us, who can perhaps shed some light on just what's happening there. How is it that they can't keep two deadlines? Why can't they just do what all the other counties do in Broward. Charles Cook is with us now. He is the editor of National Review dot com. Mr Charles, great to have you with us. And by the way, Charles is a resident of the Great State of Florida. So
he's close to the action. I'm a Florida man, now, yeah, indeed, But you live in the good part of Florida, right where they still love America and freedom very much, so very much, sir, in the sec part of Florida, South Georgia, basically South Georgia. There you go. So tell me this, Charles, What the heck is going on? Why can't they count ballot? Why can't they get this right? Well, there's a couple
of things going on. The first one is that Broward County and to a lesser extent, Falm Beats County, are extraordinarily incompetent and don't seem to be able to process elections. Will surprise nobody to learn that Broward County was the county that precipitated Bush Fee Gore all. That friend of Snipes who's the commissioner in Broward County has actually been in trouble before for breaking federal and state law and for destroying ballots illegally. Unfortunately, she's elected, so there's not
much that anyone can do about it. Uh, that's will tell you all you need to know about the voters in Barrack County. Um. So, the first thing is they're extremely bad at it, and there aren't any excuses that can be used to justify this, given that Miami Dade County is also huge, Duval County near Jacksonville is huge, and they both managed to do what was expected of
them in a timely manner. So you've got a background here of incompetence in Barra County and to a slightly lesser extent in Palm Beat, but you've also got rampant law breaking. Now, one of the things that I think the national press is slightly misunderstood is that it's not obvious that these votes that are being found or processed two days after the election, after ordilent. What is obvious is that we can't tell where they're from, whether they're legitimate,
um or even how many of them there are. Because Barra County and Palm Peace County are both in violation of the state Constitution and the Public Records Act. It is the lawns Florida that you have to report every forty five minutes as to what you're doing. You have to be able to account for how many votes there are, of what sort they are, and how many you have processed, and they weren't hurt and Brenda Smikes simply refuses to it. She says she doesn't know who, doesn't care, She won't
talk to the prayers. She says she's going for a rest um today. She started her job an hour and a half after she was supposed to. Rick Scott has one twice now, once in Palm Beach County this morning and once in Barrow County this afternoon, and he is essentially forcing the commissioners in those counties to follow the law and put out the information that suppose to them might have a better idea as to what is going on with these ballots that seem to have come out
of nowhere. This seems like, at a minimum, if one was to engage in intentional Snegan's and you've already established there's there's a history Irvan competence, and there's no question that there's at least in competence because other very large UH precincts in Florida have been able to adhere to Florida law when it comes to elections. So this is
a Broward specific issue right now. As we know. Broward, I think votes what sevent Democrats generally, I mean, this is UH one of the biggest blue strongholds of anywhere in Florida when it comes to votes. But if you were to maybe be somebody who wanted to engage in some kind of shady stuff and it comes to votes, not, for example, reporting as you go along so that you don't establish a baseline of how many votes there actually are, would seem to at least be a precondition for some
of the ways that this could be skewed. That's correct, and that's exactly why these laws exist. And I think that even in you think that there's nothing untoward happening, but always doing at the moment is ranking competence, you should still be deeply, deeply upset by this because it makes Broward County look extremely shady. It gives the impression that something untoward is happening. It infuriates people quite rightly, and it diminishes their trust in the system. I'll give
you a good example of it again. I'll make this clear. I am not saying that there is corruption afoot. I don't know. There's been no evidence thus far that there is. But a tweet from a reporter who is in the room in Broward County eighteen minutes ago says even though Broward said yesterday they counted all early votes. Broward s o E staff had told us there are several bags of uncounted early ballots, not a lot, tens of ballots, he said, unclear when they knew about these. Well, there's
two options, aren't there. One is they're incompetent. They found them under a desk, They hadn't processed them properly, they didn't put them in the right place. Another is that they've invented them now. I think Ockham's raisers suggested incompetence is a likely explanation. But it's not unreasonable for someone who is all and to look at that and say, hold on, that doesn't happen elsewhere. That doesn't happen in the Republican strongholds in Florida. This all seems to be
going in one direction. Well, this is where this is where I start to say that you you go from being a conspiracy theorist to a coincidence theorist. And and this is certainly true in this case in Florida. But when you when you extend it beyond Florida, somehow, Charles, whenever there's an election that has been called in twenty eighteen so far, Uh, that has gone one way, and then all of a sudden, there's all this other stuff
that starts making go the other. It never it never tends to to go toward a Republican The trend is never for the GOP. When the lawyers descend and all of a sudden there's a lot of oh, we just found this extra bag, as you just said, just extra bag of votes we didn't know about. All of a sudden, the Democrats starts gaining. And I can't help but feel like this is this is a pattern. Whether it's as you say, I can't say that it's intentional, but it
certainly looks bad. And for people, by the way, who in the media in particular, have made such a big deal about Russian troll farms and Facebook stuff, to act like this isn't a big deal, This is by any reasonable standard, a much bigger threat to our faith in democratic institutions in this country than some fake news on Facebook. I think that's absolutely right, yes, and I think the
hypocrisy is galling. And it would perhaps surprise some of the cigarets within the national media to know that this is not a partisan question. Down here. People are angry. People are angry on both sides of the Democrats have spoken to are angry because they think it undermine the system. And one thing you should probably be aware of is that this is going to get worse it Okay, that's
usually a safe bed go ahead. Well, what I mean by that is that, by my calculations, by the time that the unofficial vote deadline rolls around tomorrow at noon, UM, there are still going to be considerable lead for both Rhonda Santis and Rick Scott. But we are going, nevertheless to head into a recount because they will fall under the threshold in both cases. And at that point you are going to see the worst of the Democratic Party.
You're going to see lawfare. You're going to see extremely highly paid and creative attorneys descending on the stage of Florida and coming up with all sorts of reasons as to why this vote shouldn't be counted with this one should as to why people's inability to vote for the Senate in dis County means that they must have been confused, their rights has been violated, and votes must be carried up. For Bill Nelson. You are going to see, um, some of the sorts of Shenanigan that we saw with Bush
fri Gore. Unfortunately, and and I think you know one of the disservices the press has done at the national level as they've made it seem as if the race is closer than it is. It is close, don't get me, but it's not incredibly close. It's not our Franken close. I mean, as it stands right now, the Sanities is winning by thirty six thousand votes and Rick Scott by fifteen thousand. That doesn't look like it's going to change
a huge amount um. But that won't be the end of it, because recounts are notoriously a magnet for the worst sort of legal hucksters. And I'm afraid, given that the deadline for the whole thing is the eighteenth of November, there's a lot more of the story. It's come. Oh my gosh, we'll have to have you back to talk about it, Charles, because I totally agree with you on this.
And just for everybody listening, give in mind that any damage at all to a ballot in Florida, as I read it, under Florida statute, means that they can create a new ballot and that then becomes the ballot, and it all is based upon the trust in the people running the election, of people that are actually manually doing this that they mark it the same way. That's a lot of trust. That is yeah. Um, now we will have observers so much in both parties will come in. Um,
both sets of lawyers will come in. But there are eight million votes. So once you start losing people's trust, it's difficult to regain across the system of that big Well, Charles, and when we when we finally have more on this one, if if there's still the Shenanigans going on, would let to have you back hold the line down there in Florida, my friend, I think you're living life the right way. Warmer weather, lower taxes, embracing conservatism in day to day life.

We originally walked inside and asked for a table for two and he said that the way it was two hours because of
our hats Um. Then when we walked in. As you can see from the video, Um he completely avoided us, but he had a table prior to for um, just a random incomer. So so we got turned down as two Jewish women to Jewish women, just got turned down of a restaurant in New York. So than that, Carmines? What are you doing here? John? You ever been to Carmines in New York City? Yeah, it's a good, It's all right. I think they have a Carmines in d C. Two. Okay, folks,
So what happened? You got a couple of women are on video. It's getting a lot of attention to course, because they're wearing maga hats and they're they're saying that they didn't get seated at a restaurant because of their uh maga hats. And I would just say, all right, let's take a step back from one. Is it possible that these women maybe miss under misrepresented, misunderstood the situation.
And it's possible. I think they probably knew exactly what was going on there, and they were in fact denied, denied, you know, decent treatment in a restaurant because of their politics, because they're wearing Make America great again. Hats Yeah, I think that's pretty likely. I think that is that is probably what happened. And one of the reasons I think it's probable is because that's just the environment we're in now. You know, we we talked about some of these big events.
We talked about some of these very troubling and in some cases even scary incidents that the Tucker Carlson thing, that's just scary, that was just frightening to read about. Never Mind, I can't you imagine for for Mrs Carlson inside the house. But you know, we see these big these these big events that occur that get a lot of media attention because they're so scary. But you know, then there's the lower level stuff which is very widespread, and I'm here to say I think it's also very
pernicious in its own way. I think it's also really really troubling. Um where you have little things literally, you know, minor things like here, here's an example, and I was speaking in front of mine recently, who's uh, you know, he's on the on the dating scene, you know, and he's he's doing a fair amount of the apps. You know, he's on the different apps and things and he says,
it's just remarkable how many women you know. And this guy is in his in his late late thirties, but he says, it's remarkable how many women have in their online dating profile. You know, no Trump supporters, you know, don't you know, no one Trumpy allowed, no Maga hats, you know whatever. And this is on the on the first, you know, because these things are set up so that you're swiping left or right and it's all very you know, kind of based on the lizard part of the brain
making the decisions here. Um, is it the amygdala? I got that one right? Is that? Is that the lizard brain? The amygdala? I think it is when I when I doubt my myself, I tend to be right. When I'm smug, I tend to be wrong. So that's why I try to limit my smug. But the anyway, with with the dating apps, you know, producer Mike, I know you don't do the dating apps, but I'm sure you've got friends who I know. I know you don't do them, but you've got friends who do. Are you here? Do you
ever hear the same thing? Like if you there are a lot of women is especially in places like New York, Philly, d C. A lot of women are like, no Trump, I will not go on a date with a Trump supporter, and they they profess that in their profile. Now, this is the thing, that's a thing. I'm sure it's crazy. Think about that. You're cutting out half the population right off the bat. You know, I just think, aren't they
actually doing the guy a favor? Though? Oh? Absolutely? If I were single, I'd be like, I want everyone to put it out, you know, I'd want to go right away. Yeah, I want to know, because if you're really gonna have a problem, if you're gonna do with these people that can't get past your your politics. And like, I've got so many liberal friends. I mean, there's so many people that I interact with all the time that are that I don't agree with them in anything. But you know,
it's American, man. I thought, we're all allowed to like think different things. We obey the same laws, we have the same constitution, love the same country. Other than that, we're allowed to we're allowed to disagree on whatever we want. You know, I just I think that that's unless you're a Trump supporter. Unless you're Trump supporter, man, the rules are changed here. You know what. You know, I was thinking about the other day. I'll think about how I
never I've never worn him. I don't have a Maga had. I've never worn a Maga had and I don't. It's just not my style. I mean, I also don't. I'm not a guy who like wears flag pins and I'm just not. It's just a personal choice. I don't. I don't tend to show my politics in my in my dress. You know that makes it sound like a waring a ladies dress, you know what I mean, in the way that I attire myself. Um, but I would be legitimately uncomfortable.
And I think this is a really and I've almost thought about trying it out, but I don't want to ruin my day. I would be uncomfortable walking around d C in a Maga hat, meaning that I would pick up on the weird looks and and the heat I would get and I think there would be an incident, and not because anybody would know, because I don't do see it anymore. So the libs don't know, you know, they don't know my face like they used to. Uh, I don't think that they would. Uh would be would
be okay? With it meaning it. I think that I'd have an incident if I if I spend a day in d C out and about on the street, going to restaurants, walking into coffee shops with a manga hat on, somebody would say something. And I promise you I could walk around in d C for a week with a you know, a Biden Bernie hammer and sickle t shirt on and nobody would say a damn thing now And in fact, in fact I'd get I'd get a free
pumpkin spice latte producer Mike Yeah. Which now going back to that, See, my theory is with these people is they rarely say to you when they're by themselves or one on one. See they traveling like Antifa, they traveling packs.
They never do it by themselves. So would they do it to you if they're by themselves or would they wait and get their little packcrats with them say something to I think, I think, yes, you're correct, But I also think that if they're in a a public setting where they have like a security camera and a counter and everything, and they feel like, you know, you're not not in my Starbucks buddy, you know what I mean?
That's why I drink. Black. Actually was talking to my mo about this the other night, and she's like, I'm worried about like you guys. You know, I'm worried about Buck in d C. I'm worried about you New York and these people are crazy. And I said, Mom, they're punks. You know, they don't do they don't do this stuff by themselves. No, it's it's it's when there's a pack of them. Sure, you know you you rarely see anybody
any of these lefties. It's really true, because there would be videos that you really see a lefty who is one on one go up to somebody who's a Trump supporter and just like really get into with him. It's always really group. The only exception this is sometimes on college campuses. But I feel like they're they feel like they're all in a safe space and they can do whatever they want and there'll be no consequence. Did you see that that the woman who went crazy in that
video about was it Crowder? One of those guys was like, I was messing with some of the college I forget. No, it wasn't Crowder, it wasn't even I think it was just a campus reform. I forget there's a video of this woman who goes crazy about how uh the Nazis weren't socialists? Did you see this video? And she's like, I have a history major. The Nazis were I don't think we played on the show because there's so many curses. She cursed so much. Oh oh, she's a history major.
And she's furious because she claims the Nazis were not socialists, and and I forget who it is. The person says, we're no, no, they were national socialists. That's actually what they were called, and and she loses her mind. You know. So that's that's the stuff you have to deal with. But a question for you, Mike, I actually I would feel much more comfortable, This is true. I feel much more comfortable walking around with a Maga hat in New
York City. Maybe because I'm a New York native and I just like this is my town and no one's gonna take that away from me. But I would feel much more comforable with a red Maga had on a New York than I would in d C. No question. I feel like people at least are going to their jobs because capitalism. In d C, they're all going to their kind of jobs, as in they work for the federal bureaucracy, are unfire able and bitter at life's out
of that. Yeah, and plusant people in New York are just sort of like they care what they're like there at. One of the great things about New York is we do have a there is anonymity in the masses here that you are doing your own thing. You know, it's of you know, So if you like that, this is the place for you. And I think if through the store where I used to go and do a coffee shop in the West Village. It was a small it was like a little hipster coffee shop, like right out
of the set of Friends. But I used to go and I and I kept seeing what's his name that one of the greatest actors actually of of my lifetime, Um, the guy from Last the Mohicans, Daniel de Lewis. I saw Daniel de Lewis sitting in this little coffee shop in New York like three or four times. And there's five seats. I mean, like there's no he's sitting, he's got the New York Times open, he's got his legs crossed like hanging out there. And I kept seeing it
was in my neighborhood. I'm like, what is damn? This is just like hanging out of here, you know. And I remember I knew the people worked there, and I asked one of one of the girls worked there. I'm like, hey, like, mo, well you know what's you know? Does he just She's like, oh, he loves it here. And I'm like yeah, I mean, you guys have good coffee. But like, and she's like yeah, but she's like it's the West Village man. Like I'm like, does anyone ever bother him? She's like, no, no one
ever bothers him New York. And I was like, you know what, You're right, it's you just don't do that here, you know what I mean. That's why when people say this thing about, oh I see a Republican that I don't like, I'm gonna get up in their face. I'm like, what kind of a savage are you? Like? We don't
do that. You know, if you see somebody in the hallway of the Senate and you want to address them with a question or whatever, as long as you maintain some you know, you obey the laws in basic decorum, all right, do you want to yell out a question, or you know, yell out some of the senator so and so, fine, shee's somebody having dinner with the wife. There have dinner with their wife. They're a human being
at that point. I don't think you have to go up there unless there's some urgent, you know, particular need. I think that you don't get to go up to them and cause a scene. Anyway. I just this thing, this thing about these girls not getting served. It's a small thing, but when you add all these small things up, it's a big thing. Well, we're decent people. We don't think like that. So hard for us to comprehend the conservatives. Where are not Barbara? We're not barbarians? You know, that's
a little difference. One of the separations John between us and the left is conservatives we are civilized people, and the left they like to act like a bunch of a bunch of total maniacs. So so there's that. Um, I want to talk to you about a weird story coming up, So stay with me. We live a large portion of our lives online these days.

One of the things that I like to talk about, as you know, when it comes to the the edges of the progressive left, is this whole transgender rights movement and what it really entails, and what it's going to turn into, what it really means, and how it it inevitably, inevitably devolves into complete incoherence and the moment you try to test out some of the things that they're saying you find yourself saying, uh, this is this is just not feasible, like you cannot hold position A and hold
position B. A perfect example, whenever they say that biology is not or rather the gender is not a binary issue and is not biological, they will then say, because you will say, okay, well then why can't I be a different age? We've brought this up. Why can't you change your age, you know, for say tender purposes, which is what this guy is actually trying to do right now in or is it Holland? I think, um, why is an age a state of mind? Why is it
racist state of mind? They said, well, no, no, no, because there is such a thing as intersects, which people refer to as a hermaphrodite and or used to refer to as a hermaphrodite. Now it's considered intersect but that's biologically based. So if the distinction is biological, then the people that only have a psychological condition that makes them think that they are a different gender from what they're physically born as they don't fall into that category. So
it's not it's really a nonsecretory. So they can hold A and B. But here's an example of just how absurd these things will get. And this is from Amanda Prest Jacamo's fun name to say, John, are you like John's Italian press? The Jacks were there pressed the Jacomos in the old Country. You're related to John? Maybe you don't know that's a fun I always thought Jacomo was kind of a cool name. Uh. Sixteen Canadian women have had human rights complaints filed against them by a male
to female transgender individual. This is in Canada, so this isn't in some far far off place. This is our cousins to the north. A male to female transgender transgender individual has sued them for gender identity discrimination. You're ready for this, producer, Mike, we might have to ear muffiel on this one. I don't know. You're not gonna be able to forget this. What I have to tell you.
He's suing these women because they refused to wax. He's Genitalia. Now, this is one of these moments you say, Buck, this is sobas are Why are you're telling me this? No, no no, no, we we have to play this out for a moment because as some of you no doubt, no, there are salons where they will wax areas of the female the female, and that I'm just describing the procedure. I'm not being pruri intier. Uh. They will wax in order to deal
with hair. It could be your armpit, it could be your four arms, if you've got kind of hairy foe arms, you know what I mean, like the old virgin, or or you could be either dude who just wants to take care of that chest hair, you know what I mean. It could be. But usually the understanding is that if you are female and you are going to have people down in the special parts region for a procedure, that you'll have a female that does it. And if you're a male, I you know, I don't I don't know
who does the male verb. I don't know. Maybe you get maybe you get to pick and you get to ask, but at least it's it's understandable why somebody would be uncomfortable if they were told that, no, you're going to have to wax these these special parts of somebody of the in gender, because now you're touching somebody of the
opposing gender's genitalia. I mean, you know in that you know, doing doing things down around there, And I don't know how spec I'm not trying to get too specificlar, but I mean, you know, depends on the degree of the waxing too. But this is being taken seriously. The British Columbia Human Rights trans Tribunal is actually taking this all the way. And this guy, um, well, whoops, now male
to female so now female transgender? Uh is demanding I think dollars a person that's right to withdraw the complaint. So this male to female and individual in Canada under transgender rights law in Canada told a bunch of women in a salon you have to doom a special area or else I will see you in court and you will have to pay me a bunch of money. And the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal is saying next time, you know,
you probably should just suck it up. And maybe that's not the right turner for you know what I mean. You need to do the waxing. You need to do the waxing. Um. So, yeah, that's what we got going on here. That's what we got going on here. I gotta say, I'm I wouldn't have seen this one coming. I would not have expected that we would be at a at a human rights tribunal in Canada in tween, where women were officially being told that they have to
wax male genitalia as part of their job. They do not have as a private establishment, the discretion to say we don't do that here. And they're gonna have to pay a fine. I mean there, that's real money. This guy's gonna I mean whatever, this transgender female is going to get a h thirty five I could get thirty five grand. Oh, by the way, fighting this, just to fight this in court, the Human Rights Commissions is costing each of these women and estimated twenty in legal bills.
This is what's coming. This is Canada, folks, this is what's coming to this country because the left thinks that this is a this is about basic human rights. So when I come up with these different scenarios about how, well, what if you're a man who's who wants to go to a woman's by if you're facing life in prison and you could without having to actually change your physiology
having to go through the surgery, right, you could. You could spend life in prison as as a man and all women's prison, or you could spend life in prison, you know with all the scary dudes in the yard um, I think people might take door number one there, and if they don't have a clear explanation as to why you can't do that, you know, I need to know what the rule, what the rules are going to be. The les falls into incoherence on this and that's that's
the bottom line. And this is also why you know they keep yelling at us, Oh why didn't Democrats do better in the mid terms? Why why does this happen? They always just say, oh, we're racist, we're racist. It's always about how we're racist, and it's never about how maybe the left can just stop being crazy and then
we could have a normal conversation. Maybe maybe they can stop pushing policies and ideas that any normal person who had not been endlessly propagandized to by the mainstream media and the cultural left would say, well, that doesn't make any sense now that that's not that's not the way that we should do things here. So anyway, just just be careful if you go to waxing facility in Canada,
can get wild up there, wild and woollie. You could say, now, DOCTA, that was actually good news yesterday, because you never win in the night circuit. If you're on this half of the equation. When I say half, it could be half or more. But you haven't win. You rarely win in the Ninth Circuit. The good news is by rejecting Docta in the Ninth Circuit yesterday, finally we've been waiting for that, we get to the Supreme Court, and we want to be in the Supreme Court. On DOCTA. President Obama said
he had no right to sign it. He had no rights, but it was upheld in the Ninth Circuit as usual. If you take President Obama's statements, you know he knew that he couldn't sign it. So this whole thing is it's a terrible thing what's happening with the courts. The docta will now hopefully go to the Supreme Court where
we'll be given a fair decision. He's right, it is a terrible thing what's happening here with the courts, because this is a a just a stupid, a stupid ruling that is driven entirely by the whims of some left wing members of the court instead of the law. Look, this is this is an issue that they can complicate, but it doesn't have to be complicated because there's a very straightforward line of argument here that we can all follow that we all we don't need a lot I
don't have a lot of degree. Some of you do, but not all of you. Obama point one said that he did not have the right to unilaterally suspend congressional legislation when it comes to immigration by declaring that some people cannot legally or cannot be will not be deported from the United States, even if they're here legally. Point one. Point two. Obama then changed his mind because he couldn't get Congress to go along. I've got to put on
a phone. I've got on the phone, and he decided that he would do this, that it was within the executive branches discretion to implement deferred action for childhood arrivals. Okay. And then point three President Trump comes along and says, Okay, I disagree with with the notion that Obama had this authority, but if he's going to have this authority and no court stopped him, by the way, then I have the authority to say, well, I'm actually not going to do this.
I am going to adhere to Congressional statute and I'm gonna stop this this phony Bologny protection of DOCCA based upon executive whim and then point five here we are. They say, oh no, you can't do that. So someone just explained to me, I mean a court now has said that to the president. Someone explained to me, how is it possible that one president can have the authority to implement a policy and another president cannot have the
authority to stop. I mean, we're not talking to something where there's a treaty that's you know, been uh signed off on by the senator. There, there's no there's no competing there's no competing branch of government here, there's no
overlap that. No, no, no, this is just this would be like someone saying, well, a president took us to war, let's say in one country, and the next president says we're gonna end the war in that country, and then people and then the the federal courts say whoa, whoa the president before you started this war, you're not allowed to end that war. How can you have the authority to go or no go? And then they tell you you can't no go. I'm not trying to run in circles.
I really mean this though, it's this isn't a complicated matter. This is a straight forward matter. And this is where you see the ugly liberal left showing its true colors. This is where you see what they're really all about, which is the relentless and and uh no holds barred
pursuit of power and the hashtag resistance. Judiciary is gonna do whatever it can at every stage of the game to try and even if they they're willing to be wrong on the law if it delays Trump right, the this is if this were a sporting event, the refs would have to call them out for delay? How to give them penalties for delay a game? Because that's all this is. They don't really believe. I mean, they ultimately
can't think that they will win in the end. Here, there's no way how could How is every executive Oh that's right, you were probably saying, buckle. How do they justify this? They essentially say, this is a three judge panel of the U. S. Nine Circuit Court of Appeals based in San Francisco, No less, what a shock uh
left Coast ninth Circuit Circus. But they say that the administration cannot phase out deferred action for childhood arrivals essentially because they say that they're they're saying that they move too quickly and there's a due process concern here um that they deserve more process. What does that even mean? It doesn't even make any sense. They say that the administration was acting in the quote arbitrary and capricious manner. That's not arbitrary and capricious. This is the executive This
is the discretion of the executive branch. This is very similar, very similar to say, if someone came along and they let's say a court came along and said, you know, you can't fire Jeff Sessions. You can't do it. I'm a federal judge and I'm I'm you know, because someone files suit they say that that it's illegal for the president Trump to fire Jeff Session. The federal court says, you know where it is illegal fire Jeff Session. Court
has no jurisdiction there. That's the president's call. There. There is no way that a federal court has standing to say to the president, a coequal branch of government, that in an area of your purview, you can't do that. It's up to his discretion. This is also up to the president's discretion. So how can how can the think about how convoluted. This becomes how bizarre this is. Now, if they can say that this is arbitrary and capricious, what can they not say as arbitrary and capricious that
the president does? Can't They can't they claim that any regulatory rollback from the executive branch arbitrary and capricious. The president negotiating a new NAFTA deal arbitrary and capricious. He doesn't have to do that. He's just decidt even do that. This is really taking us into a place where you see that there's no good faith from the left when
it comes to dealing with this administration. None. None. Their whole plan here is just to use everything they can a Lynsky style in the federal courts, to slow down, to obstruct, and to mess up this administration. That is what they're doing, and it is lawless. This is lawlessness from federal judges. Make no mistake about it. Hello is a political decision made by a judge. I think it's a disgrace. That's forty eight thousand jobs. I approved it. It's ready to start, and they went out I guess
to end up going to the Ninth Circuit. As usual, we're slowly putting new judges in the Ninth Circuit. The key Stone x L pipe blind has been blocked once again. Folks. This is nothing less than politically driven judicial activism masquerading as law. It is, in fact a lawless, a stupid and indefensible decision. Um. Keystone XCEL. By the way, Excel stands for Export Limited. Who knew that? One fun fact? That's what I'm here for, to bring the fun facts
in the hut. Um. So that's the that's Keystone XEL for you. But this federal judge blocked it. Um, Judge Bryan Morris of the United States just disreccord from Montana. I have so many thoughts on this, Let's start with this one. We always hear that Trump is essentially a dictator, like he's this autocrat in in waiting, and yet or
he's an autocrat already. And yet, when a single federal judge decides to override a point of executive branch policy, no matter how flimsy the pretext, and this is a flimsy pretext, by the way, but no matter how flimsy the pretext, the response to the administration is not, well, I'm just gonna order the executive branch to override. I mean,
that would start to get that's a constitutional crisis. Maybe r that starts to feel a little scary when the executive branch has now the judiciary doesn't have doesn't have jurisdiction here. Sorry, right, yeah, then I could understand people starting to get nervous. But no, that's not what Trump does. Trump says, okay, fine, we'll see you in court. Right. He completely has has completely respected the system and wins
in court. I mean he won on the travel ban for example, which everyone said, oh, it's so unconstitutional and all this stuff, but yeah, it's so on institutional that Trump one with the travel band issue, went to the Supreme Court and he was correct. So that's at just point one of this is I hate that everything Trump does makes him an authoritarian. Everything Trump does makes him a deskpot. You know, firing Jeff Sessions, he's an authoritarian. But he has total he has the right to do it.
You know, he he is allowed to fire Jeff Sessions. There's no there's no prohibition on what he did under the constitution. But they still say, oh, it's a constitutional crisis. No it's not. But let's let's dig into this Keystone Xcel thing for a while. Well, what this does is this one federal judge now means that they've got to go back and redo the whole federal process to get approval for this. And you know this is this is there's a lot of symbolism here as well as some
important policy that's at stake. I mean this the symbolism is first of all, regulation and the slashing of regulations. Trump and his team realized that the federal government is involved in way too much stuff, way too many regular There's way too much regulatory overreach, and it's just crazy. So this is an example of the government just coming up the works on something that they have no real need to be involved. I mean, there should not be as involved and as slow in resolving any problems as
they have been. So that that's you start with that one, all right. And and then you also have the environmental component of all this. And this is where I just I just want to throw something at the wall, because the people that think that this is an environmental issue or a climate change issue, I don't know what the
heck they're talking about. All Right, let's start with this, I mean, the Keystone XL pipeline is an eleven seventy nine mile pipeline would carry eight hundred thousand barrels of oil from the Canadian oil sands to the Gulf Coast. And this has become a big political issue because you have all these environmentalist wacko types that say, well, this is this is bad, and you say why is it bad?
And they say, well, it's bad because pipelines can fail and then we could have an oil spill and that could be really bad for the surrounding environment wherever you know in the areas that the pipeline traverses. You say, okay, but guess what. Pipelines are actually much less likely to fail and much much safer from environmental impacts standpoint than rails are. Then then trains are true true, right, that that's so start with that, So that notion is just
that's just a falsehood. But the bigger problem, the bigger issue is they say, oh, but but climate change is what's at stake here. This has become a symbol for the left, for the Sierra Club and these other wacko lefty green groups out there, environmentalist extremist types. They think that there's gonna be more c o two in the air because because of this, and so they want to stop it. Right, this is this is symbolical on the on the climate change issue. And here's the truth about that.
If they don't allow this pipeline to go from the Canadian oil sands to the Gulf coast, it will go east to west and be set up for transshipment to you guessed it, Asian markets. So you'll just have tankers taking this stuff. They're not gonna keep it in the tankers off the coast of Asia. They're gonna use it. If climate change is truly a global issue, which they say it is. And as I point out, climate change
is a real phenomenon that is meaningless. It's real. It just doesn't really have any meaning, doesn't doesn't change anything. Climate change doesn't change anything. Yeah, I know that sounds silly, but you know what I'm saying. There's there's no imminent threat, there's no big problem. That's all nonsense. Okay, So but you look at this, you say, hold on a second, that the net effect of the Keystone XL pipeline crossing the United States in terms of the climate is non existent.
There is no effect, there's nothing there, there's no reason to be concerned about what this will do the environment and the environment because we we can't stop Asia from getting the gas it's coming out, or this is money in the ground. They're they're pumping this stuff out. They've already gotten the approval for that, so you know. But but this goes back to you know, Obama as well. This was an Obama legacy item. Barack Obama rejected the
Keystone permit. Why oh, that's right, because he was just about to uh negotiate the Paris Climate Change Accord. So this is really a religious climate change article of faith for the left. That's why they care so much about this. And they certainly don't care about the the jobs, the construction dollars, the you know all that, they don't they that doesn't factor into their analysis. They just want this to stop. Um. The pipeline has been looked at now
for ten years, I think. And and the federal judge that's slapping this down, you know what his explanation is. I mean, it's a forties or fifty four page long ruling, but I can tell you, having skimmed through today, he's basically saying it needs more study. And I don't like that I don't like the conclusions they drew from this process. Therefore they need to redo the process and think more about the evidence that I think they should think about.
This is just a federal judge thinking that he can override the executive branch of the United States government because he says so, because he thinks he's saving the planet. This is lawlessness. Uh, this is lawlessness. And but this is really a form of law fare that the left
is engaged in against the Trump administration in general. But they say this is just an extension, by the way of of the same legal framework that they are really pseudo legal framework that they use to prevent the administration from stopping UH from continuing well, stopping data. They say they didn't go through the process slowly and deliberately enough. It's not fair. Well, a judge doesn't get to decide what the executive processes for areas of executive discretion, right.
I mean, if you were buying a house, and you decided to buy a house, and then I showed up and I said, a hold on a second, hold on a second, I don't know if you spent enough time touring the house before you bought it, you would say but that's not your call, Like this is irrelevant, you're not. You don't get to tell me how much I have to put into the deliberation about a decision that's mine
to make. I get to make the decision these judges, whether it's on DACCA or on Keystone Excel client, Ke's on Excel climate, KE'STI on Excel pipeline, that's what they're doing. They're taking upon themselves the right to tell the federal government you need to think more about this before you can make this decision. I'm not saying you don't have the right to make the decision, but you need to think more about it. No, no, no, this is delay
based on politics. This is hashtag resistance judiciary at work. That's what's going on here. This will get this absolutely not survive higher judicial scrutiny. This is a joke, an absolute joke. But nonetheless they think of it as a victory because for all their talk about institutions, for all the Democrats and the lefts desire to portray themselves as the defenders of our democracy, they'll throw all this stuff out in the heartbeat if it means that they get
power and they get their way. Democrats emotionally and psychologically are obsessed with getting their way at any cost. You've been hearing me talking about Black Rifle Coffee for a while now, so it should be obvious that this Veteran's Day, the only thing you should be drinking is a delicious cup of veteran crafted coffee from America's favorite coffee company,
Black Rifle Coffee. I drink Black Rifle every morning. I have converted dozens of people in my office now from whatever corporate, weirdo left wing coffee brand they were drinking in the past to Black Rifle Coffee. Not only do they love the flavor, they love the fact that they're drinking coffee that's as good as anything you'll get in
any fancy fruit fruit bourgeois coffee store. But also they know they're supporting veterans and a veteran owned company, and this Veteran's Day, get your coffee from Black Rifle Coffee and contribute to a company that's actually making a difference in the veteran community.

The lights they're on because of you, So we appreciate that the hut has heat and running water because of you guys, which is very much appreciated. I was actually just talking about how I do drink my black Rifle every morning, um and
and I've is it black coffee? Is keto, right, so that that counts. That's right, Catosis, I read about it. I wish I actually did it, that would make more sense. But we've got Evan, Evan Hayfer with this now he's a CEO, and Matt Best who is VP, and also the guy from all the funny videos. Although you're in the videos to Mr I am yeah and a few of them. I think most of that is like it's
a collaborative between the two of us. But my favorite is coming out as a conservative, where he really plays the antithesis of what Evan stands for in being a very hyper hyper progressive individual and it's quite hilarious progressive suicide bomber and one that sub stars. He I do remember that, Yes, no, yes, the dude. I will tell you that I've sent many folks to UH to familiarize with them with with what you guys do on the coffee side. By the way, where's my I don't have
a T shirt. I'm just saying you and T shirts green. Look at this they've got. You guys are always prepared. You show. This is amazing. I seriously, John, there's so much love in this room right now. I was gonna start talking smack about how Nine Line give me all this gear. So I walk around my nine Line T shirt drinking my Black Rifle coffee. But now I can go all Black Rifles. You know, they're a veteran owned company. We're partners with them and some pretty awesome stuff. So
we're all about it. No, I know. I was at your team opening in Savannah where you had Black Rifle and Nine Line. I think of you guys as like brother companies. So anyway, but I just like to play you off each other so I get more free gears. Course, all right, so let's we got some real stuff going on. Here. Um, we have veterans Veterans Day coming up obviously, and and
you guys are involved in in some initiatives. Why don't we start with that, And then I just want to talk to you generally about how you think the veteran community is doing right now. You know how how the Trumpster is going with all that stuff. But first, what's some of the good stuff that you're you're working on four veterans right now, It's start with the big one
is it's it's veteran transition and employment. And for us, we're very concentrated on creating an ecosystem a black refle coffee that encourages healthy employment environment for guys that are getting out of the military or civil service, where they're going to find an ecosystem that supports them. And it's really difficult. I think a lot of people haven't invested a lot of intellectual energy and to try and to
figure this out. When you have roughly twenty four million people in the United States that have served the country, which accounts for insignificant when I say insignificant portion of the employment of America, but it is very significant as far as service to our country and what we actually owe service members once they come back, um and with they're under employment numbers because they're underemployed compared to the rest of the workforce. Black revel coffees really focused on
creating this this holistic environment for them to excel. And I think a lot of people don't understand going from possibly one of the most non corporate structured environments and non PC environments, especially the combat related military occupational skills into corporate America. That's a long and hard pendulum swing for a lot of guys, guys and girls. And what's the biggest thing they need in terms of help to transition, right,
Because I mean I hear about this. I know you guys were in the community and now you're on the other side, successful entrepreneurs. But you know, everyone knows, everyone knows military has skills, discipline, all these things. Private sector wants those things. Is it just helping military, uh, military folks when they come out understand how to market those things to the private set? Like where is the discord? It is it the private sector doesn't really understand what
the skills are. Where it's that is part of it, right, So there's a couple different issues in that transition which have to be dealt with. One is the corporate entity hiring the veteran has to understand what they did, so break down their military occupational skill and then how long they were in and what positions breaking down all of that experience. It's really easy to look at somebody with a four year degree in business or whatever it might be and be able to put numbers to that and
assess that person. The people on the other side in HR and recruiting typically know how to do that. Now, in HR and recruiting in corporate America, it's really difficult for them to understand what a guy has done in the military. It's very difficult. So part of that is just translating that experience over into the corporate environment and then placing them in the right place. So that's part.
And then too, when you're creating this, uh, you know, I can't I equate it to creating a communication that starts to train this person out of a military communication procedures where they use a lot of acronyms, they use a specific type of candor that is somewhat non PC. When you look at a lot of veterans transitioning, UM, I've heard this a lot where I've got a veteran
in my office and he's really aggressive. I've heard that so many times, and it's it's our communication style necessarily, how they're they're acting right, and it's you know, you have a mission first, so you have a person that is very mission oriented. They're driven to accomplish the mission. They don't want to a lot of white note noise. They've learned how to chop all that stuff away, go straight to the bone and try to get something done
well that can be interpreted. When I get calls in from people all across the country all the time, I say I've got and the guy's a background of us about a seventy accuracy rating of were you former military, sir or ma'am, just based on just based on the way we're talking, especially because we're down on an issue, and the way they present information wherever. But you know, the the assertion, the rhythm that there's a there's a
cadence to whether you get used to so. And that's not because they're telling our call screen of their military. But usually I can having spent a lot of time with folks like you guys, and in a rock and Afghanistan, you pick up on it. So there's definitely a communication style there is, you know, so it's a translation, so taking how they were communicating their prior in their prior jobs, and a lot of these guys who spent you know, ten plus years now and a constant rotation cycle in
Iraq and Afghanistan. When we look at September eleven, two thousand and one, that's that was a long time ago. Now we're looking at seventeen years of operational experience and continuous deployments for a lot of these men and women that have served the country. Well, they're institutionalized in a in a very specific way of accomplishing a goal and a mission. Well, taking that and then putting them into a corporate environment with zero translation and then expecting them
to excel. There is an expectation there, an assumption that I think is somewhat inaccurate. They have to get, uh, I guess a training program that takes their military experience, translates that for the corporate environment and then teaches the military prior military service person and the corporate entity to communicate and work together a little bit more effectively. So what what specifically and I want to get you guys
a host of other issues too. But just before we go into a break, here, what are the specific initiatives that you guys are doing. Where can people go how can they find out how Black Rifle Coffee is helping veterans in this specific context. Well, the big one is is is we we've got above a fifty percent higher rate at Black Rifle Coffee. So as we've expanded into Tennessee and Texas, we're continuing to hire more veterans, and our culture and our ecosystem is very military friendly in
our communication procedures. Actually civilians have to adapt to that more more so than the reverse, So that's one big one too. We're expanding into the more bricks and mortar sections of the business a little bit, even more hiring opportunities for veterans for pen FED initiative is well right, and we've also teamed up with the Pentagon Federal Credit Union in order to launch the Veteran Entrepreneur Investment Program.
So if you're looking at starting a business, you can head over to Black Rifle Coffee or the Pentagon Federal Credit Union, submit an application, and depending on how the application procedure goes, you could be funded by one of the companies in this initiative. We're talking to Matt Best and Evan heyfer a black Rifle coffee or hitting a quick break team. We will be right back. Online security is essential, you know, just this week I was on a train.

We've got Matt Best Evan Hafer, the VP CEO, respectively of Black Rifle Coffee, which I do drink every morning. It's actually nice to like a product, by the way that you have to do making delicious coffee. I do. I do very much appreciate it. Um, But but I want to just we got Veterans Day, Veterans Day coming up. Matt, how are veterans doing in the country right now? I think they're doing pretty phenomenal, you know. I think we don't give enough credit to people post GUAD even it's
still going on, and their successes in the civilian community. Um. You know, I think there's still a lot of issues that we have to combat as a veteran culture, and civilians have to understand that veterans are hyper successful and hyper talented individuals and then the very small segment that actually need outreach and help, you know. As a company,
Black Rifle Coffee really try to combat that. Partnering with UM organizations like the Boot Campaign in the Warrior's Heart is really getting the individual treated for their specific issues and some of these UM organizations like the Warrior Heart, they're actually doing blood work and mental testing and finding out what's wrong with that said individual and then putting them through the appropriate treatment and then reassembling and backed
them to civilian culture and making sure that the success rates. I mean, I think they have like an eighty something percent success rate that people are getting past their issues, whether that's a UM, a moral issue, a PTS issue, a mental health issue, there's it's it's pretty amazing and I couldn't be more proud of where the community is at today. But you know, you never settle. UM, We're
always going to do better. And it's up for us to look out for veterans because everybody says we want to support veterans, but um, when it's time to support them, they tend not to. And I really just want to rally the civilian community, the veteran community, and come together to support the people that have put life limb eyesight on the line to protect the freedoms that we enjoy
every single day. And I mean, we live in the greatest country in the world, hands down, and we do that because of so much years of sacrifice, not just our generation but past generations through the whole since the inception of UM America America, we all we all move America.
But you know, Evan, uh, when when I look at what's going across the country, I mean, I will say that it feels like every every look these days, there's you know, there's new there's new initiatives to try to do something to help veterans, whether it's dealing with PTSD issues as Matt was talking about, or or just in general to to celebrate the service and sacrifice of of
the veteran community. So is it still trending in that direction though, even though there's not the same level of look, let's be on, there's not the same level of active combat operations. I know you're still guys in the rock and Afghanisan and speak to that too, But people forget, we have a war still going on. There are still men and women out there outside of the wire getting blown up, getting shot at every single day. We cannot forget.
Just have that green on blue attack and last week exactly. Yeah, So I mean that's that absolutely needs to be And by the way, I also think that Afghanistan, I'm curious, I'll get your take on this one. To Afghanistan is a place that no one wants to deal with the reality, which is that it's not gonna work. I don't think it's gonna work, meaning that the plan there is the same planet was ten years ago, and the same planet was their years before. That's that's an interesting point. You know.
Even when I was there, my first rotation to Afghanistan in two thousand nine, mine I would jokingly say America's plan is just more cash. That's basically what their plan is. And I would always say, hey, we need more plan, we need more plan, we need more plan, because they just like to throw money through a combination of things in order to try to fix a problem. Well that
that doesn't really get the job done. You have to have a long term strategic goals that are met, you know, month by month, year by year, and you do have to have a plan in order to get out of the country eventually. So I I would say, yes, I agree with you, and that I would say Part two is the first part of your question, which is how are we doing as far as as these veteran initiatives in order to transition guys more effectively take care of them.
Is there just as much inertia. I would say there is, and I think it's getting better because you've had a lot of white when I say white noise, you've had a lot of these foundations in the last we'll call it two decades that were non effective, and some of them were started by people that maybe had great intentions but ultimately didn't quite understand how to fix some problems.
And that doesn't mean they weren't good. It just means that these guys have long term and sometimes and sometimes systemic problems that came from combat UH, and there's a lot of institutions that didn't quite understand. You know, it's not a car rack, it's not UH in trauma's trauma, but it's a very specific type of trauma. I think we're at a point now with the community that we've focused in with several really good foundations that know what they're doing and have a lot of experience doing it.
So I think they're becoming more effective, if that makes sense. So there's there's less, but there's more, So they're doing it more. They're getting more effective at this, I think. So. I've actually also heard stories about some of the new UH advances in particularly some of the prosthetics and other technology with very serious wounds. I mean, really, I don't know how to say it, a very futuristic space age kind of stuff that's coming as a result the brilliance
of that. How much military technology applies to the civilian sector. I mean, if we apply resources and funding to getting better you know, prosthetics for military amputees will subsequently than the girl born without a leg. We can actually apply those same that same technology and see a six year old walk for the first time. Like it's one team,
one fight. And we don't want to have these segmented. Um, we're Americans as veterans, but they're still the men and women who raise their hand to put themselves knowingly in harm's way. And there has to be the utmost reverence for the people that did that well. And I can I'll back that up with with the you know, the House,
Senate and the Executive Office. Basically, when we look at the approval of these wars, we have to look at not only funding the war, but looking at taking care of the men that have volunteered to do the actual act. So when we sign up for these these these wars and in Central Asia, the Middle East, or wherever they are. We can't just look at the budget for invasion. We have to look at how many people are going to be affected and being able to take care of them
for the rest of their lives. And I think this is my feeling. I think there has been a lack of emphasis in both the House and Senate and being able to take care of veterans effectively. There's been more priority in the v A in the system, but veterans have seen a lot of their their funding for education and things like that, they've seen that dwindle and be cut, and there's less priority on that because we want these wars, but we don't want to pay for the bill when
it comes. And now that's an absolute tragedy. It's an absolute tragedy that as as a society we can vote to say YEA, we're going to war, but we're not going to take care of our veterans. It is the
ethical responsibility of the stage. So for people listening to this across the country right now, guys, how can I feel like people that are tied in the veteran community, they already have First of all, they are veterans where they're related to or or married to veterans, But for for the civilians out there, like you know, what's veterans I'd like I'd like to do something. I'd like to actually take some kind of a positive step or action to to uh, to assist that all these things you're
talking about. What would you recommend? Where should people start? That's a that's a loaded question. I would just say, participate, vet and act, right, So you have to participate in the veteran community. You have to vet to make sure that the organization and the people are true and honest, and then action. You know, work requires action, and you can talk and throw hot air out there all single day, but you have to participate to an individual level to
make a difference. And you know you could. There's lots of amazing organizations out there. You just have to find them yourself, do the action, do the work, vet it, make sure that they're consistent in their their ethical behavior, and then action on it and do the work. Haven't anything from you, Yeah, I think you know for us too, I think we've worked with so many of these different organizations. We do a ton of outreach, specifically within the veteran community.
We have products that are specifically designed to just support, for instance, Warriors Heart. All the profits, all the profit goes back to that organization. We're we're not profiting whatsoever. That would be completely unethical for Black Rifle to do. What I say is vote with your dollar support the companies that support the community. Uh So, if at the very least you can go to Black Rifle Coffee and buy the Warrior's Heart coffee and you know that you're
going to be doing something for the veteran community. Evan Hey for Matt Best, gentleman of Black Rifle Coffee. Thank you first of all for your service, especially during the Veterans Day where you're talking abo veterans as you think for your thank you and uh and also thank you for for all that you guys do. It's pleasure. And for the delicious coffee by the very very good. All right, we'll be back in a moment. Team stay with us, Team Buck. It's time for roll call. Oh yeah, roll
call time. And I'm up here at NYC for the weekend. You know, even though it's kind of a glum day here in the city, it's it's cold but rainy. You know, I'll take snow over cold and rainy any day. You at these snow has a certain charm to it, you know what I mean, John, the cold rain. You're like, so now I'm wet and I'm freezing, and I don't even get to throw snowballs of people, Like there's nothing to recommend that. But it's still great to be up
here in New York City. I mean, I haven't smelled that particular odorific mix of street urine, black tar coming out of the tail pipes of big trucks and whatever trash bags have been left to rot on the streets for a few days in a while. I miss it, you know, I miss it. I'm like, ah, yes, yes, that's send that smell. It is New York. It is so fantastic. Salts assaults my nostrils like an invading force. Well, I love it so much. New York is. It's quite
a quite a place. Um. I really do miss it, though. I like. I like being back up here. I'm visiting the family and miss Molly for the weekend, which is exciting. All right, Now, let's get right to it. We're gonna have a double roll call because it's Friday, Fried Yea. You know, I actually had a guy in my I've got a great crew TV crew at at Hill TV, I mean the actual guys that run the cameras and everything. And one of them said to me, um, uh, Thursday is Friday Jr. And I like that attitude. I need
more of that. I need more of that random positivity, you know, in my day to day. All right, Facebook dot com, slash buck Sexton, if you want to be a part of any of this, now, let's get to it. Tom writes, thank you for calling out fake Jake Tapper, so sick of other conservatives stick up for him and call him fair. Also, I'd love to hear the liberty loving Latino Chris Salcedo cover when you're off stay safe
down there in the swamp shields high. Yeah. Well, you know I've I've once or twice had some interactions with Jake where he showed himself to be a thin skinned, nasty and someone underhanded fellow, so I have. I do not have anything positive to say about the man in any sense. I think that what he does on TV
is largely fraudulent. I think that his his uh virtue signaling via just extraordinary love of heroes all the time is about brand building more than is really giving a giving a much of a care about anybody who's actually putting themselves in harm's way. And I think that he's part of really the the forefront of the vanguard of what happens at seeing all all the time, which is
the laundering of liberalism through a prism of neutrality. So they're not giving you left wing bias, you see, they're not giving you a narrative that the Democrats want to hear. The Democrats, of course that comprise plus of their audience. They're just giving you the facts. And their audience loves that because they think, oh, I watch CNN. I'm not like some of those people that watch Fox. And you know,
you're just not a very sophisticated thinker. If you really believe that people who watch Fox are getting skewed news but people who watch CNN are getting the truth. You're just not sophisticated in your in your news consumption. You may be, you know, a brilliant astro physicist, but you don't understand how media works. And so I think Tapper is part of what is essentially a daily fraud. Uh. And there's that, but there's a whole crew. I mean,
Don Lemon, same thing, Chris Cuomo same thing. And it's not just Tapper. There's a whole bunch over there. There are some objective journalists I mean when I say objective, pardon me. There are some journalists that I think strive for objectivity. They're still left of center, but I think they do make a real, a real point of it. But Jake, he fills a roll over there, which is they go, oh, well, you know, Tapper will call out.
He'll call out both sides, not really once in a while, just just enough to make it seem legit, but not really. Um So, I'm glad to hear that you agree with that assessment. Tom uh Let's see here yo ha. Right. Hello, Buck, was listening last night and you mentioned the Caribbean Parade in New York City. I'm pretty sure we call it the West Indian Day Parade and it happened in Brooklyn. You're correct, Johan, it is the West Indian Day Parade. The reason you brought it up was because a caller
inquired about the device that detects gunshots. You made the right connection about the two. I worked in Queens in the eighties and every year they asked volunteers to work over time for that parade. I know of no one that did. UM. Yeah, for whatever reason, the the West Indian Day Parade. There's a lot of gunfire in Brooklyn.
Not at people necessarily, I don't think that's happened too, but celebratory gunfire is a thing that would happen, and some people don't seem to understand that when you fire from say a rooftop or a yard up in the air, those rounds what goes up must come down. So it's a it's a very serious public safety threat. It's not just like a noise ordinance issue. I know all of you know that, but some other people go, oh, yeah,
you fire guns off in the air. I'm a right a friend when I was in UM, when I was in I Rock he told me that right before I was actually in the facility, we were discussing. Uh. He said that the Rocky there was some kind of a Rocky soccer team win, and all of a sudden, there was it sounded like there was rain on the rooftop where he was, and it was actually a K forty seven rounds that were pinging off the rooftop because nearby there were people who were firing in the air and
celebration firing a K forty seven's in the air. Ah. Yeah, that that's the thing that happens. Um frail right, Please, I beg you make your show either downloadable on your website or available on SoundCloud. Again. Um, you can't download off of I Heart Radio. I can't download the list of the podcasts offline. Um. Yeah, I I don't know why we can't be on sound John, why can't we be on SoundCloud? Is there a reason? No SoundCloud? No? No, not allowed. I don't you don't know why. Okay, I'll
try to. I'll try to figure that out. Why can't be on on SoundCloud? Uh, Douglas writes, Tell Chris that'll stop calling everyone a racist? Um? Uh, Doug, you know if you saw this morning, I I just will say that I obviously did not like my co host analysis on that point, and I just have to I have to leave it there for now, for the sake of of comedy. I'll leave it there. Um, Keith right buck, what happened in Florida with Al Frank in the Minnesota
is nothing new. In two thousand and four, Dino Rossi won the initial count for state governor in Washington State against Christine greg War. Then an activist group in Seattle Acorn, claimed they found a bag of votes missed in the initial count. This bag of magic votes were counted and greg War still lost the election. So a Acorn found yet another bag of magic votes and Christine one more bag.
Greg War won the election. The state and the city of Seattle have been marching off the left coast cliff ever since. I was born and raised here. But I retired two and a half years. I feel bad leaving the state. In my rearview mirror. Even the lefty sister moved to Missoula because it's so bad. Keep up the good fight from Keith, Well, Kith, thank you so much for writing in. And Yep, people cheating elections. There's voter fraud.
It does happen. People cheating elections. I know we're supposed to. We're always told, oh no, that never, they would never do that. People do a lot of crazy things, the craziest among them would not be trying to cheat an election. Especially. Think of it this way, if you really believe that fascism is coming to America, would would a little voter fraud really be too much for you? You know, I'm
not advocating for voter fraud. I'm just saying, if you were crazy enough to believe that you know, voter fraud was coming to America, I mean, sorry, that's fascism was coming to America. I feel like you would probably be willing to break some some voting laws, um and and and even be willing to suffer the consequences of breaking them. That is that is my sense of it. So there you have it. Um let's see what we get here. Hope, Tom, what's next? Uh? Eric writes Buck. I wouldn't say it's
a draw. The mid terms. We gained enough seats in the Senate that he can push through any nominee with no problems. Can't wait for the Dems in the House to negotiate with the president. Hopefully he will stand on conservative principles. Eric, Eric, I mean, I see what you're saying. It's really a win in both directions. I mean, I'm not you can quibble with whether or not we should we should describe that as a draw. I would just say that there's gonna be no deal with the House.
I mean Pelosi, I wonder if she's gonna try to rope a dope Trump, but she knows better than she's not gonna get him. It's not like she's I'm not I'm gonna say it might sound a little means she's not dealing with Bush. You know, she's not gonna swindle him with some fake olive branch. And then all of a sudden it's, oh, you know, I think maybe Nancy Pelosi wants to be friends. No, false, untrue. Nancy Pelosi does not want to be friends. She does not want
to do a deal with you. Trump knows that. And I just can't see there being anything other than the most just you know, not real kind of outreach situation with Pelosi. That that's how I see it, at least that's my estimation of where all this is going. People. I know they talk about infrastructure, well, the Democrats are gonna say, you know, it has to be all all union labor, that does it. I think they're gonna they're gonna all these little side pork projects and stuff. They're
gonna make a mess of the whole thing. It's not gonna be oh, what can we do to most efficiently improve our infrastructure? Democrats have no interest in now. They just want to take your money and give it to other people so that they can be in power. That's really the Democrat mantra. More roll Call coming up like soft butter on warm toast. Time to spread some freedom, coast to coast. It's time for Roll Call, Roll Call Part two. It's always fun when the Black Rifle guys
come by, is it. I'm Mike. It's like I get to hang out with the cool kids for the day. You know what I mean. They're They're a fun bunch. I like them. You can hear me, can he not? Yeah, he's just ignoring me. It's all right, Producer, Mike. I how often am I in New York and you just ignore me? It's like, I'm not even here, doesn't have his ear piece in. I know you're pulling clips and making the show happen. Man, I can multitest that. I'd like to get I'd like to give you a hard time.
I was just saying, the Black Rifle guys, it's like I get to hang out with the cool kids in the high school. You know what I mean. They're awesome, They're great. They're there, and then the company is doing incredibly well, which is it's so nice to see people that are great guys and doing all these cool things and also are being really successful and not uh not letting it change them at all either, which is cool. And they just come back here and tell us some
stuff and hang out. It's great there in New York. I know they came back, came by with all this shag. I'm gonna have to start working out, so I look okay in this Black Rifle T shirt. That would be it. That would be a good a good start to things. Um. But do you drink the coffee? By the way, Mike, do you ever drink it? You hook it up right? I do? Yeah, it's really good. It actually is really I know it sounds like we're doing a Black Rifle
infomercialist hour, but it actually is delicious. Actually, Like they're there. They have their coffee mugs are and their accessories they have on their website, like their coffee mugs are really cool. O. They're big and like them Black Rifle dot Com, slash buck everyone check it out, all right, so I said, I said in roll call. I meant roll call. I was not intending on skipping past the roll call. Jen. I'm about as sick of hearing a constitutional crisis as
I am. Common sense gun control, Jen, I totally and completely understand. I'm sick of it. To a constitutional crisis, dear lives, it does not mean something that you do not like. That is not what a constitutional crisis is. That that does not count as a constitutional crisis. So I just think it's important that everybody understands. Let's get on the same page. You with that one right now, that is not what it means. Uh, let's see we get here. Dennis writes Buck, if you're gonna wear a
sport coat, you need to tie. Dennis, I'm gonna throw a flag on that one. I don't think that. I don't think that's true. What do you mean you can't wear I think sport coat. I think you're gonna wear a suit. Maybe you you know, a tie is a little bit more a propos. But I don't think sport coat and tie necessarily go together. I think sport coat, no ties the way to go, you know what I mean?
I don't know what do you think? By the way, Producer Mike, I got a little heat recently because someone saw me wearing a navy suit with with like chestnut brown shoes. I got some heat online. I feel like you wear chestnut brown shoes whenever you want black shoes. Black shoes are for weddings and funerals. Everyone needs to just check themselves before they wreck themselves. Yeah, I'm just saying I wear brown shoes. I have a gray suit
that I were recently. The pron with black shoes is that all black shoes kind of look the same, you know, and if they're shiny, you better be wearing a tuxedo with them. That's all I can tell you. Whereas brown shoes, the richness of the leather, the contrast, the contour, the quality can come through. Black shoe is a black shoe. You know. It's just not that exciting person obviously didn't know how to dress. I'm not gonna say it, but
I'm not gonna not say it. Mike, you know, probably probably could have sent me a photo of his square toed loafers. Yeah, that's right, producer, Mike can can drop bombs. I have to be the I have to be the diplomatic one at all times here, um Kenny writes, Hey, Buck, One other thing, I wouldn't get too ahead of ourselves. That Whittaker is friendly and fair. We've heard that before,
only to be disappointed. And shocked. We also thought Jeff Sessions was gonna light it up, and sadly it appears that he was put in a box by deep state forces. I don't think Sessions had much choice but to behave I'd like to know how they accomplished sessions handcuffing, but I don't necessarily blame him. Almost anyone else might have reacted similarly. Uh yeah, I think that Sessions gets a raw deal on the guys. I'll be honest with he he had to recuse himself or that just we're gonna
freak out and make him crazy. I mean, I don't think he had a choice but to recuse himself because of the noise the media was going to make over the whole thing. And he was good on policies, and that that's important. Every need to understand. He was good on policy, and I think that, you know, people should keep that in mind as they kind of celebrate that
Sessions is gonne. Although I do disagree with them a marijuana and this is a really a generational thing because I know a fair amount of you listening very much disagree with me on marijuana legalization. I feel pretty strongly about it, not because I I don't smoke marijuana, and I have not in a couple almost two decades now. I think it's been almost two decades since I had smoked marijuana. It's been a late Yeah. I know, John right,
who would have thought? And and I grew up in New York City where there were drugs all over the place. But I was not somebody who would I just I just never thought it was a good idea. I don't know, it was never really my thing. Um, but I do think that for criminal justice reasons, you shouldn't go to prison for marijuana. That's that's how I feel about that,
all right, Hannah, Alright, heck yes, buck time. I feel as if Trump has been laying in wait to see how this election went to go full Duke Nukem on the left. I'm glad I just bought some popcorn shields a Hannah. Yeah. This is the one thing about the ugly arrow we find ourselves entering here. Um, We I think are assured to see Trump engaged in what Trump does best, which is just political pugilism. He's gonna be throwing down with Libs left and right, and they can't
beat him at that game. They really can't. They've tried, but I think he'll do well. Hey, man's from Alex. What's the name of that pro Second Amendment gun book you talked to the author about not long ago. I thought it was called First Freedom, but couldn't find it, Thanks and Shields High. It is, in fact Alex called First Freedom, and it is a book written by David Harsani, who's a very talented, very nice fellow writer. UM that is a senior writer for the Federalist First Freedom is
his book. I recommend it to you, and I've always liked David. I thought he's a good guy. I think he's a good guy. One more your Jennifer ries. Hey, they're a great show. Is always quick suggestion. Garlic press and everything I cook garlic and shalots makes an appearance somewhere. A good quality garlic press is a must. Also a bar of stainless steel soap to get the onion stink off. These are a must. Okay, I could I could get in with that, um garlic press. I did get a
