Stop The Illegal Invasion

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. Make no mistake, you're a great American. Again, the buck Sexton Show begins. Analy Remember they have a lot of everybody in that group. It's a horrible things and it's a lot bigger than five thousand people. And we got to stop them at the border. And unfortunately, you look at the countries, they

have not done their job. Unfortunately they have not done their job. Guatemala, Honduras, El Salventuring. They've paid a lot of money every year. We give them far today and they did nothing for us, nothing, They did nothing for us, So we give them tremendous amounts of money. You know what it is. You covered all the time, hundreds of millions of dollars. They, like a lot of others, do nothing our country. Welcome to the books. Accident show Trump

laying down some truth. We need to stop the caravan. The caravan must be stopped. Uh, it's shouldn't it shouldn't be on us to do it. But I think we're going to have to. I do not think that we can trust at the Mexican government, which under the Merida initiative, I would note, which is similar to what we did in Plan Columbia, where we've effectively given them billions of dollars in aid and assistance over many years for their

own security and counternarcotics and anti corruption measures. You would think that Mexico, which is a country that has dependent upon us largely for any number of economic avenues, lots of trade, lots of good things, that that they want to keep going, you think that they would be a very helpful partner in this. But of course they've got their own problems, and they don't want to stop seven thousand Hondurans from marching through their territory and ending up

on the U. S. Border, and all claiming asylum. UM, I would just note that this issue is going to be demagogued into oblivion. So rather than get too deep, and we will talk more about some of the specifics here and what I think should happen. But let's start with a very simple question. What do the Democrats want us to do with this caravan which is as of today estimated to have seven thousand people in it? What do they want us to do? They should be forced

to answer that question. Every Democrat who's seeking office in this country of an election two weeks away, Every Democrat should be asked on air, on the record, what should we do about this caravan. I'm noticing that that's not a question of you had I had CNN run a debate with Gilim and de Santists will run some audio from that later for you, some highlights, uh for the Florida governorship. But I don't remember that question being asked.

And I want to ask by I want to ask by every journalist, if everyone running, what should be done here? Because you'll notice that what the Democrats offer as an answer is Trump is a racist, blah blah statue of liberty. That's not an answer. If they're saying that these are asylum seekers, these are refugees. Well, then I have to ask if these seven thousand people who are unvetted, who have not produced any documentation, yes they're undocumented. You know,

we don't have anything about them. If they are just automatically to be treated as refugees, what about the millions of people who live in Honduras? Are they all refugees? I need to know if we are being told by the Democrats that this is a group of refugees, we need to know, Uh, what happens when seven thousand more show up, and then seven thousand more show up, and then fifteen thousand show up, and then twenty thousand show up.

Why would that be? Why is that so hard? If if they get in, they'll they'll know this is the place to go, this is the way to do it. Do the Democrats have an answer for this? Do they even pretend to have an answer to the question? Do they have anything at all? Can they offer us anything at all in this realm? The answer? I'm wondering, Maybe they do. I know that they have a lot of postures that they take. I know that they want to sound like they're very humanitarian and they're so concerned and

they care so much about the poor and the downtrodden. Meanwhile, as Democrats who have destroyed most of the major urban centers that they've been in soul government control of for the last oh, you know, fifty years. The Democrats who have destroyed places and made life more miserable with their governance and with their policies everywhere from you know, Baltimore to Detroit too, you know, you name it. Democrats have a track record that they really should shy away from

running on. But nonetheless, uh, they think that all they have to do is make this an issue of who cares more well. I want to know what should we do? And the Democrats do not have an answer to the question. If we take this seven thousand, what do we do with the next seven thousand? And what does that mean for our overall immigration policy? Are we a nation of laws?

Do we have sovereignty at all anymore? If enough people want to come here and they form a a mass of human beings that are moving physically to our border, do we have to let them in? Do we have to process them and then give them later on a oh, show up for your your court hearing? Five years from now. Oh yeah, I'm sure a lot of them are going

to show up for that. And if they do, I'm sure a lot of them are gonna say, I've been here for five years, I haven't broken the lag, and now I get to stay, and the A c l U and a whole army of activist lawyer groups will come right to their side and say that's right, they get to stay. Must feel pretty weird be one of the people that are currently waiting to go through our

legal immigration process. It's expensive, it's time consuming, it's annoying, and it must not particularly feel a fair to people that have already gone through our immigration system to become Americans, to become permanent residents of this country. They must feel like, Wow, Democrats don't really have much respect for what I went through,

especially for those of you who have become citizens. Democrats just want to give this away as long as it benefits them, as long as it strengthens their electoral prospects. The Democrats can't answer simple questions on this because it's not about principles and we all know it. They should be at least forced to answer these questions. What should be done with the caravan what should we do with

the next one? I promise you if they had to answer those and then enough Americans heard them, they would get wiped out in the mid terms. We got more on this coming up. Stay with me. Is it demagoguery? How would you describe this? It is demagoguery, Brian. It is also I believe, racism and natives. I'm really pandering to the fears of Trump supporters and Fox News your worst who tend to be older, white males who are alarmed about the supposed invasion of dark skinned newcomers coming

to America. I mean, the threat is entirely bogus, because, in fact, border crossings have declined dramatically in the last eighteen years. Down there is not this massive army of illegal immigrants. And these people are not even illegal immigrants. They are refugees who are seeking legal admission to the

United States. It must be a debasing thing to have once called yourself as Max boot has, to have once called yourself a conservative, and to have just completely become a turn coat and a boot liquor of the left wing, which is what this guy is. Now. It's going on CNN. Say whatever he has to say, Just trash. I guess all those people that he was writing for all those years, right, all those years, this guy was building a career writing about and four and two conservatives at least in his mind.

He basically was, let's go to war with foreign countries that, you know, we think we can remake in our image. I mean, a very a very aggressive interventionist foreign policy guy. Uh and not really known for much else. But but at least he was thought of as on the right. He was despised by his colleagues at the Council on

Foreign Relations. I actually knew him when I was an intern there, believe it or not, and he was not liked by the other people that worked there at all, which I attributed to his conservatism at the time, meaning I thought they didn't like him because of conservative and I was maybe it's just a jerk then too, Maybe it was just always a jerk. I don't know, but he's acting like a jerk now. I mean to say that opposition to a seven thousand's gonna be ten thousand

probably by the end of the week. But a seven thousand person caravan, uh, concerns about that just waltzing in the United States seven thousand people in one one fell swoop. It's gonna take probably a couple of weeks, probably three or four weeks, that they're really on foot the hallway, which I doubt. I have a feeling that there'll be some busses and trains and things that all of a

sudden are brought into service here to help them. Oh, it was all just spontaneous, they say, yeah, right, But whatever it is that they get to the border, we're just supposed to let them into the country. This is so, it's so intellectually lazy. And for somebody who fancies himself in intellect is Max Max Boot does, it just goes to show you how how pathetic the whole thing is, but intellectually lazy to say that it's fear of brown people that's the problem here. Nobody would want seven thousand.

I don't care if seven thousand Canadians line up on the border and want to come into the country. We have sovereignty, we have laws. This is a country. They must be enforced, all right. This is not it should not be. It is up for debate, unfortunately, but it should not be up for debate. We should be able

to determine who comes and goes from our country. If we can't determine that, I would note, then then what right do we have to expect people in this country to pay the taxes that have demanded of and including global we have extra terror ratorial taxation as American citizens. You could live in a foreign country, they're still gonna tax you. Okay, that's that's the way America plays the game.

But if you want to come and go as you please, come, make money, go and bringing money back home, send money back home without it ever being taxed. No, no, nothing about that. They have no problem with that. This is a scam. It's a scam, and it's not about fear of anyone's skin color. And to say so is disgusting and it's a slander. But he knows that. And CNN audience is hitting home. Yeah yeah, that's right. Trump's racist.

Yeah yeah, like a bunch of imbeciles, a bunch of stupid hamsters hitting the pedal to get their little pellet there, a little pellet of left wing garbage. That's what this is all about. That thing he said, by the way, about about border crossings are down the last ten years. Maybe he's just not very smart. Border crossings compared to

what and when. And I would note that there's a tremendous amount that aren't border crossings that stay in the true you have a half a million visa overstays every year. Does he realize that a large percentage of them are here beyond three sixty five days, which means that they're long term visa overstays. That's right, people fly into the country now and just stay. So that the notion of and we're talking about illegal border crossings. Guess what, they're illegal.

We don't know how many there are, but this is yet another talking about This is how you have people that are supposed to be smart that will say we have eleven million people, and I say, well, we've had eleven million in the last ten years. And every every border patrol officer I've talked to you, and I've spoken to many, will tell you that at every border sector they're catching people crossing in the country illegally all the time, all the time. So the numbers stays static even though

there are people coming in all that. This is like saying I have a cup of water and it's the same. It's not getting any more full over time, even though there is every day a drip into that water glass. Maybe some of you have like a scientific explanation of evaporation or something, but you know what I'm saying, it's obviously growing. There is not the outflow that they say there is. Okay, people are not said, Oh, they're the economy's bats. They've all returned home this garbage. There's twenty

million illegals in the country. There's twenty Look at the numbers. Look at what we know. They're twenty million illegals in America right now. And everyone's terrified of that coming out before we give a mass amnesty, because then the American people will realize that we have been betrayed, we've been lied to, and the business owning class in this country and the politicians who rely on them as donors have traded our sovereignty for cheap labor, and the Democrats have

traded our sovereignty for voters. And you said, oh, buck, illegals can't vote one. We don't really know who's voting too. By being the party of illegals, Democrats have also become the party of immigrants and Latinos. They have made that transition, and so it's a it is a pure power play for them and for Republicans, it's just well the donors, you know, they want they want people. I love his articles. They can't find people to take the jobs once the

legals are gone. Okay, pay more money, stop breaking the law, and pay more money. You know, these these I I started to sound a little bit like I'm a little too friendly towards the state here. But you know, America has rule of law and roads and and you know, courts and and fire and police and all these things that we do need to pay some taxes and to avoid taxes, to pay to your workers, and to let them get away with generally not paying taxes because it's

cheaper for you. It's cheating. Is cheating, and this should be in forced. It should not be allowed to continue on. But the opposition to the migrant caravan is not rooted in racism, and to say so is unfair and dishonest and despicable. But you notice this is gonna be the primary, the primary they talk about it. Um. Meanwhile, on the other side is you got Representative Louis Gohmer, who's uh, he's not holding back at all. Play eleven. All of

these people trying to force their way in. It's called an Asian and thank god we have a president that will stand up to an invasion like this. I've heard people on TV, so called experts say, well, you can't use the military because positive commentitus. Look, that normally prevents the military from being used against its own citizens. It has nothing to do with using the military to stop an invasion from another country. So there's nothing unconstitutional or

illegal about the president doing what Woodrow Wilson did. Put tens of thousands of people on the border and make sure nobody forces their way in. And you know you were talking about coming through ports of entry. The president's got to close the border until this threat is over, because it is a threat. We know this is a tactic, we know it's going on, we know it continues to go on, and it's you can't deal with it other than to just stop the whole group and close the border. Yeah,

you got to close the border. Got to close the border. Or you can listen to the the chattering class, people like Alison Camera Rock Allison Camasn who has stuff like this to offer. Plate. If you come to the border today with a child, doesn't even have to be your own child. You will get entrance into our country. You will jump the line from people who are waiting immigrants in this country? Are family members waiting in line? And will you get just just just just a fact check?

When you get a luxury car, what'd you say? Well, you get a luxury car given to you. You get all kinds of what the Democrats want to do, and every one of these things is give them. You get Obamacare, you get a telephone, you get all kinds of things. I don't know about a car. I haven't heard about a car, but I mean you get all kinds of programs. You don't get a Rolls Royce. You don't get a luxury car. George Soros doesn't meet you at the border handing out millions of dollars. I don't know if this

for the caravan, Allison, who's paying for the caravan? I'd like to know. You should put a reporter on it. Who's paid? We have a reporter on it. Let me question you a question, Let me answer journalists along the way. This is not No one is paying for the caravan. Poor people are marching hundred miles. Matt, Matt, Matt. Are they going to get to Mercedes beds? Matt Are they going to be given a may Bok? Very very pricey? My driver prefers it. Get out of here, Camarata. What

is this garbage? What the heck is saying they get a luxury car? Soltos is not waiting at the board that are handing out the million dollar bills. No, he is not. That is true because I don't think I don't think anyone's handing up million dollar bills. Um, all right, We've got so much more on this, and then where the status elections are and Kip Strasso from the Wallstree Journal,

that's all coming up. What we have said is one to replace ICE and put it inside the Department of Justice and organization that it would would it please have fidelity to the law. Well, will you honor a request from Donald Trump's ICE agency if they provided detainer request? Will you honor it? As governor? Will you work with Donald Trump? You can proceed with your time. They won't answer the Jake. That's important because that's what happens when

somebody's a criminal. I've been a prosecutor, I've worked with law enforcement. When they're in the system, they're convicted that maybe they served ten years, but it comes time to come out, there's a detainer request from ICE. You either turn him over to ICE or release them into the community. That's the only two options. Andrew will not answer the question that tells me he would be willing to release them back. He won't answer the question that was gill

him and DeSantis. De Santis was the one who's pushing him on that issue, both candidates for uh uh, for the governor of Florida, and and trying to you know, trying to get that last push here as we get very close and people are gonna look at Florida, They're gonna say, there's a Bellweather state. This tells you a lot about the direction of the country for the mid term election. Are going to say that this is you know,

really it depends if the Democrats win it. If Gillum wins, who is the mayor of tallahassee another person who I don't think they're going to run him in twenty but they see him in a young, charismatic Obama esque mold. So a lot of Democrats very excited about about gill Him and you know who's basically socialist. I mean, he's pretty he's pretty open about he wants single payer, and he wants to raise taxes, although he won't say that, you'll ask him how do you pay for us a

bunch of things? And you know we'll find some ways. But De Santis was pushing him here on the issue of ice detainer requests. And notice how Gilliam would not answer, because what this really is a question about sanctuary city policy. Sanctuary cities do not and now there's some variations here depending on which jurisdiction are the sanctuary cities as a as a general rule do not adhere to or do

not honor I taining request. What that means is when someone is already in custody of law enforcement and Immigrations and Customs enforcement is informed that that person is in custody, they send a detained request if they want that person to be turned over to them for the purposes of deportation,

they refuse. Sanctuary city jurisdictions refuse to do that. And what do Santist knows, and he had been a prosecutor, is that that means that there are people who are a danger to the community, who are convicted criminals, people who have served sentences, including sometimes for violent crimes, and local jurisdictions because of the politics around illegals and because of the pandering to generally the Latino community by Democrats,

jurisdictions will not honor these detained requests, which means that people who are criminals and illegal aliens get released back out into the general population and can become repeat offenders. And this is really of do you believe that law enforcement should work together? You know that I cannot think of another issue where if the FBI requested UH, for example, the fb A requested help from a SHAREFF for local law enforcement, they wouldn't just not get help, they would

be stonewall. We refuse to help you as a matter of policy, right, and people realize that there's a lot of crossover. There's a lot of ways, unfortunately, but it is true that even local crimes can get tangled up in the federal web. And so there and just the FBI is viewed as a legitimate law enforcement body by most folks, and so there's a lot of cooperation between those, right, I mean, I here, I here's a perfect example. I

worked in the m I p D. Intelligence Division. I was sitting sitted with seated with pardon me, UH, sitted with FBI agents, d e A agents, people from all these different federal Immigrations and Customs enforcement, all these different agencies were all sitting together because stuff that will come on my radar would also be on their radar, and we work together as a fusion center. That's what I was doing. That's my my and of course also on the federal kind of terrorism side in particular, but we

understand that there's a lot of crossover law enforcement. Well, somebody who is a drug dealer who is also an illegal alien is causing problems for the law in multiple ways, and one law enforcement agency should support the other law enforcement agencies legitimate law enforcement functions. What gill him is telling you without telling you is that he prefers lawlessness because it is politically advantageous and he won't say it, but De Santis was right to push him on this one.

And this then goes to a a refrain that you've heard a lot from the left, and I really hope becomes a huge problem for them in the in the mid terms, which is remember when abolish ice. Abolish ice. That was a thing that they were chanting all summer, not reform ice, not change the law or change the policy at the border so that we can have a more efficient way to transfer people so that they are with their children, or they're at least close to their

children and know they'll be reunited. You know what, it wasn't have a serious adult conversation about this. It was bolesh Ice. It was street protest activism slogans in place of a serious adult policy discussion. Well, that was a reflection where the Democrat Party is on this issue, which is a kind of childishness around it. They're they're un serious, They are fundamentally un serious about dealing with immigration and

enforcement of immigration laws. And they also will say things that are just bizarre, like, oh, put Ice under d o J. Okay, so put a put in massive federal bureaucracy that's in DHS. Put it in another massive federal bureaucracy. The whole point here is that the point they're making is that Ice will not in fact adhere to the law, but the FBI will. After what we've seen with the

Russia stuff, does anyone really believe that? I mean, do you think you think putting the FBI in charge of them, are putting the d o J in charge of them is really going to make things better. Uh, these these are all these are just different executive branch agencies. There's there's no reason to think that that bureaucratic shuffling will make anything better. But but Elizabeth Warren goes even further here.

Elizabeth Warren, who still thinks as delusional as she is, as crazy as she is, she still thinks she's got a real political future in the national stage, you know, just as an aside here, I think I've heard some people say that maybe her plan was to do such a uh pull pull, such a dumb move, that we will become numb to the stupidity of it later on, and then it can't be used against her because she's already just fallen so flat on her face with it. I I don't know if that's really possible, but that

I've heard people saying that. But here's what she says, which is also a fall flat on her face stupid point. Here's what she says about immigrations and customs enforcement. This was just this week play es X. I want to see this agency reformed because an agency that can't tell the difference in the risk between a seven year old girl between a woman going in for brain cancer surgery, and a terrorist or a criminal is an agency that is not working. It is not making us safer, and

it sure doesn't reflect our value. I don't know what the hect she thinks she's talking about here, about a terrorist versus somebody from brain surgery? Who who? What straw man argument did she come up with here? Exactly? This makes no sense. This is just bizarro land stuff. I mean, there's nothing about this that I can point to and say yeah, yeah, and I know where she's going with that. I know what she was trying for. It's just like

she's on another planet. But remember that, because we do have a porous border, um and because we do have an inability to control the population flow into this country in a meaningful way, you also have over seventy thousand people you're dying from drug overdoses, and the drugs are coming from Mexico. Folks, The drugs are coming primarily from Mexico. The lethal ones are coming in across our southern border in huge numbers, and they're killing tens of thousands of Americans.

This is the most urgent security threat that we face. This is the most urgent public health crisis that we face. And it is because of our southern border. You think that that would mean it gets higher up on the attention list, but apparently not. Apparently not. Remember the the Immigrations and Customers Enforcement Agency just recently seized fentanyl that was enough in terms of dosage to kill five million Americans.

Producer Mike sent me that. So that's a lot. You would think that that would get them a little bit more credibility from the left with oh, yeah, they're actually keeping they are keeping us safe. They are doing a lot for us. But this is just a power play for them. They'll say whatever they have to say as long as they have to in order to get restored into a majority in the House and to then bring about amnesty that will essentially eradicate the Republican Party. That's

the goal that they are going for. You know, there's a Senate race that I don't think it's getting nearly enough attention. You got the Beto obsessed media talking all about how he's gonna beat ted Cruz when now that's just laughable. But there's another race that maybe deserves a second look here, at least for what it tells us about the Democratic Party, if not what it tells us about the possibility of this race going for the Republicans. Kim Strassel joins us now to talk about what's going

on in New Jersey. She's a piece up on the Wall Street Journal where she is on the editorial board smiling at corruption Democrats try to save Bob and Nndez months after his bipartisan as admonishment. Uh, Kim, great to have you back. It's great to be here, all right. What's going on in in the Garden State, which I always feel a certain love hate relationship for the New

York or what's going on there? Yeah, Well, as you said, you know, what's notable here is that while the entire media is still obsessing over Texas, where those numbers look as though Ted Cruzes is definitely pulling away from Beato Rourke, there's a race that's even within a smaller margin of error.

And in New Jersey where the Democrats Bob Menendez, who, as you mentioned, um, he was censored by his colleagues, that rather admonished by his colleague back earlier this year, Um, after he had been found to have accepted all sorts of gifts from a man who is a now convicted sellon who ran one of the biggest medicare frauds on

the government at all time. Um. Not only was he accepting a lot of gifts from this guy and not acknowledging them under Senate ethics rules, but he was working on behalf of this guy to help him with his business interests in Washington, including going so far as to lobby to the Health and Human Services Secretary on his behalf.

So um, he was actually indicted for this. The FBI ultimately, I'm sorry, the Department of Justice ultimately dropped the charges after the Supreme Court change the standard on what it would take to convict him. But he was admonished, and he's now facing a very tough race against Bob Hugan, a Republican businessman who's been highlighting this, and it's it's

really driving up Menendez is unfavorable. I have to say, there's a deafening silence, Kim from so many of the Oh, Jared Kushner must have some shady relationship with Saudi Arabia. I hear there's are people in the media all the time, and then I say, okay, well what is it? And then there's no, there is nothing. There's all these whispers of corruption around Trump. Meanwhile, Menendez, who you know, whether people want to just parse out the legality of what

he did or not. And what he did was gross and the guy he was associating with even grosser, and they're just hoping to push this guy over the line. For the Democrats, yeah, I mean, Democrats are actually out there running a campaign focused on so called Republican corruption.

Nancy Pelosi this summer actually handed out to her members a toolkit of talking points about how they could supposedly go after Republican corruption Trump and all sorts of others issues, none of which, as you have said, there's any real evidence for. But in the meantime, they just have closed their eyes to this and in some cases actually are outright helping. I mean, look at the Democrats. That's why I called the column Smiling at Corruption the biggest superpack

out there, a majority superpack helping. Senate Democrats just decided to reroute three million dollars to help Bob Menendez in his race, money that they're taking away from even more important races for them where they're trying to defend seats um in places where Trump won because he's in so much trouble. But in essence, this is a democratic party saying, hey, you know what, we're okay with corruption. Um. Yes, there's

a whole trail of evidence. It's very clear, in fact, the senators on records saying that he engaged in corruption. But we're still gonna do everything we can to return him to office. Yeah. And I have to say that there are two areas where I see a tremendous hypoxicy the left. You know. One of them is on this uh as on the notion of corruption, as much as you pointed out, is is a talking point against the Republicans,

but you have so many Democrats. You start to think about all the Democrats that have gone to prison and just in the last oh four or five years for incredibly obvious and very shady corruption, and that never gets brought up in any of this discussion. As I said, there's always this vague Oh Trump must you know, someone starts telling me about the emolument's clause. Kim, you know

that that tends to be what I hear about. But also on on the notion of mobs, I I have to say, I am I have been surprised, and I take a very dim view of much of the uh of the journalist class, which I know, technically you definitely are a journalist. I'm something else, but I'm pretty close to journal land. But most journalists, I think, act in a way that is rarely surprising to me. But on the mobs, Kim, I've seen a lot of people that say, you know, they have no other they have no other

way to make their case. And these are people that write for the Washington Post. It's it's crazy. Look, it's absolutely unacceptable. Okay, the whole reason we have civil society, we have debate is so that we don't have mob rule just because your side didn't win an election, just because your person didn't get in office, or just because

you lost your Supreme Court nomination. There's absolutely nothing written in any of the formal or informal rules of our society that give you the right to chase Mitch McConnell or Ted Cruz out of a hound them at a restaurant. Um. This is a fact precisely why we have a ballot box and elections. And anybody who's out there, whether it's on CNN, I've seen a couple on there or anyway saying, well, a it's not a mob and be they're just saying

what they think. We all know that's not true. Um. Saying what you think is when you write an op edit or a letter to a newspaper, UM, or you go to vote. But you know, harassing people on the street is not. And if that's the best they've got, then Conservatives should actually feel pretty good that they're winning on the policy. Merors, Now, I know that it's it's really tight, and soda to ask you to make your prediction,

I mean, who really knows. But just in the minute or so we have left year, Kim, how do you where what's the main dynamic you see right now in the House race that's going to determine whether it ends up being the Republicans of the Democrats who win the day. But I think the most important thing, which you won't hear anyone talking about, especially on the mainstream media, is how different this is today than it was just three weeks ago. Okay, we can already say with complete definite

proof that the Democrats have blown it to a certain extent. Uh, they were talking about a wave three weeks ago. They messed up with Kavanaugh. It's not going to be a wave. I think it's gonna come down to five seats one way or the other. Right, whoever does win, I'm not going to have a huge majority, but I think Republicans are still in the alright, Kim stressed everybody of the Wall Street Journal check out her columns and also her book,

The Intimidation Game. Kim, always appreciate you making the time for us come back soon. Thank you. Buck. Yeah. I think he was spot on there with the it's gonna be five seats. It's gonna be such a narrow margin. I don't think that we're gonna know. We're certainly not gonna know who controls the House by the time. Um, although you should listen for all of the show election night obviously, but we're not gonna know who controls the House. I think, um, by you know the time this show

is is over. Um, I think it's gonna stretch. Well, I guess the polls closed around eight, and there's no way we would know. Okay, yeah, it's not even close, but we might not even know till I don't know, maybe the next morning. It's gonna it's gonna be drawn out and it's gonna be very very tight, which just

goes to tell you. You know, they've been telling us that Trump is a fascist and destroying America, and now they're praying and hoping that they can not have a blue wave, but a little blue ripple, just a little bit. It's crazy right now. You've got the left freaking out, chasing people out of restaurants, screaming at little old ladies and anybody that shows up at a Trump rally, and whereas a maga hat. You've got all kinds of nonsense going on about the post Kavanaugh rage from all the

different progressives. How about we all just stop that crap and drink some delicious coffee. How about that for an idea, because that's what I do every day. I drink Black Rifle coffee every morning. I drink it full on black because it is delicious, high qualities, small batch, roast to order coffee, and I've made converts all over my office. I'm like, why are you drinking that commie swill when you could be drinking Black Rifle, A company founded by

veterans and that's all about delicious coffee. Go check it out for yourself. Nothing cures a bad attitude quite like starting your day with the most American coffee ever Black Rifle Coffee visit Black Rifle Coffee dot com slash buck received fifteen percent off your order. That's Black Rifle Coffee dot com slash buck for fifteen percent off Black Rifle Coffee dot com slash buck. Right now, rife will pale very well. And I have not satisfied with whatever. That's trong.

I know the audio wasn't great there, but no one's audio was great because it's the president speaking with a with an engine going to the background. Gave a press conference, to the impromptu press conference talking about the Kashogi situation. Kogi murder, we can call it that now. I mean, we've known that all along, but now even the Saladi is like, yeah, he was murdered. He was murdered, and the Saudis have been caught up here in the Saudiast

are lying. We've known that really all along, but now it's quite obvious that they're lying. Um. They admit that there was a as they said, a struggle, a fistfight in the consulate with the security team and Kashogi, and that he was in fact killed. They claim uh not.

They claimed that it was of course not planned. So you had a a guy whose expertise is in being a coroner, i e. The guy that does the investigations about bodies and would know, for example, what they look for in a forensics I'm sorry, he's a He is a forensics investigator in a corner, so would know what they'd be looking for in a crime scene situation. That's big. And that had a bone saw with them, another really big coincidence that we haven't had any real explanation for.

And you add all these things together and oh yes, by the way, they also tell us that they don't know where the body is. I'm pretty sure that someone in the Saudi team knows where the body is. In fact, I'm pretty sure that we all know that what happened was that the uh, the Saudi team that was assigned to to get him, cut him up and took the body back to Saudi Arabia in pieces. This was a mafia style hit that was ordered by the head of

Saudi Arabia. Now they're going to claim that it wasn't in fact that the head of Saudi Arabia that knew about this or that did this. They're going to tell us that this was someone else. This was you know, they're saying it's a rogue operation. Um, we obviously don't believe that. We don't accept that explanation of things. But I would just note that, you know, they they they will do as much as they can to get away with this for as long as they can. Uh. And

that means delaying. That means stretching this out as far as they can. That means, you know, trying to push a narrative of events here that will just even though nobody will really believe them, will give them some level of plausible deniability. Uh. And I have to say that. You know, now we get into what do we do about it? Okay, so the Saudias, the Saudias are saying, oh, they're at the o J part of this whole situation, where where o J was looking for the real killers.

You know, the Saudias are at that phase of this where it's very very apparent that no one believes them they killed this guy, and now we're all supposed to figure out what we do next about this. As I have been saying to you, this has been receiving much greater focus in the media because they use this as an opportunity to go after Trump right at the end of the day, what happens with Kashogi is not really that much our business or our problem. We can give

a diplomatic statement about it. We can say this was terrible, you should never have done this, but we are not going to prosecute anyone. We don't have any mechanism even for prosecuting anyone. Uh, this was a crime committed on Turkish soil, so we don't have any jurisdiction here to speak of. It was also done in a consulate, so it was done on Saudi soil, on Turkish soil. So this is a diplomatic issue. This is between nation states.

The guy was not a US citizen. Now I know, he was a green card older, he was a permanent resident. A lot of people focus in on that, but he's still not a citizen. He held foreign citizenship. So, you know,

why is this the president situation primarily to handle? You know, why is this something where the president of the United States is the one guy who is supposed to take definitive action and you know, we we know the answer, and the answer is that it's because the left wants to play this game of you know, Trump is terrible and Trump is a dictator and all this other stuff. Uh, and he loves dictators. Here's Obama's former public relations propagandas

are from inside the White House, Ben Rhodes. And this is how dirty he's willing to be play clib five. Well, we're seeing here, Chris, is really the continuation of a profound realignment of American farm policy under Donald Trump, where we no longer speak up for democracy and human rights, we no longer speak up for journalists. Instead, we call

them the enemy is and me of the state. And we're giving a green light not just to this Saudi regime but to any regime around the world who wants to harm dissidents, harm journalists because the most powerful democracy in the world is no longer on their side. I think it has with Jared, his son in law. He's been sort of his viceroy when it comes to dealings with the Arab world. I think he feels that somehow he's in bed with this royal family over there, that

his sort of romanoff phony family. Uh, and their families seem to be locked together. Jared and his Crown Prince seemed to be in bed together politically, Yeah, I bed together quick, madgiwe oh my gosh, I don't know why anyone. I don't know why anyone listen to that guy just so desperate to hang on and be relevant. He must be good friends with the management at MSNBC. I don't know why people listen to him. It really don't. Among one of the worst analysts on TV, a total I

believe he used to be a conservaty. He'll just say whatever he has to say to try and be relevant at any point in time. But you you had their two different versions of giant bull crap. Bull crap coming from Ben Rhodes. Is that this is Trump's fault, that the Kashogi murderer is because Trump calls CNN you know, the enemy of the people. I hate to break it to you, but you know there are journalists, there are propaganda apparatus ps I in countries where journalists are the

enemy of the people. Straight up? Is the North Korean Ministry of Propaganda the enemy of the North Korean people? Yes? Is North Korean state media the enemy of the North Korean people, whether they nor or not. Yes, Same things true in Iran, Same things true in a lot of countries. Just being a journalist does not give you some moral superiority, which I know is a shock to all the swamp dwelling journalists around me here in Washington, d C. They

really think that they're special. They don't want anyone to tell them otherwise. And this is he always always get the sense from all these journalist types, this is the only profession they could ever even consider having. You know that that the notion of showing up to a job and just doing something else to them once they've once they've tasted a certain level of success in journalism, is just it's horrifying to them. Work with the pleabs again. Oh no, many of them have never done that. By

the way. They go right out of right out of school, right into some j program somewhere, and that's that's the pathway anyway. Uh, this is just idiocy though from Rhodes. And then you have this whole conspiracy theory about Kushner and Mohammad Been So Been Salmon where Kyeah Kushner. The Saudi is a very important strategic player in the Middle East right now. That's a fact. We don't get to

ignore them. That's a fact No administration, no administration has ever stood up to the Saudis in a meaningful way for running one of the crappiest countries on earth despite all of its oil wealth. No administration, no president, including Obama, who is bowing, literally bowing to the Saudis. Okay, so everyone needs to just slow their role and chill out on this. Stop making this about cheap partisan points against Trump.

That's all they want to do. They don't care about this guy because Shogi, they have a little more solidarity with him than would otherwise because he was not even a He wasn't journals, he was a columnist. The guy was as an opinion writer for them. Now I'm not saying that means that, you know, anything that should have happened to him, but the way they're talking about him,

it's like he's, you know, he's one of them. Meanwhile, as anybody who ever writes an opinion column anywhere, somebody that now gets special treatment in terms of the media's view of them. I can tell you this much. If it were a conservative who had been attacked, I mean they an American conservative who have been attacked somewhere else in the world, you hear a lot less outrage about this,

just a fact. It is. Just if it were someone who are critical of fundamentalist Islam, and that was the primary attack that Islam in Saudi Arabia is a destructive, oppressive, tyrannical force. And the Saudis took that guy out there say well, you know, there's a lot of Islamophobia going on there. I mean, you know, they shouldn't they shouldn't

have murdered him, but there you know a lot of Islamophobia. Meanwhile, if you even bring up the Kasgi was and this is a fact, an Islamist, meaning he believed in political Islam and was very friendly and cozy with the Muslim brotherhood, It's like you're trampling on the man's grave. That's that's just telling the truth. He wasn't a Islamist. Nobody he wouldn't deny this if he were alive. Nobody denies this. Doesn't mean he should have been brutally murdered. Oh I

almost left out that. He also that they dressed somewhat up as a body double in his clothing after they had killed him to try to create footage of him leaving. So that was the plan they were going to try to They must not have known that the fiance was outside because they were going to try and say that he left and that they had no knowledge and that they were going to disappear him. That was the plan to disappear him, and they are just really, really dumb

about it. Let me give you a little bit of intel agency insight here in terms of what I what I learned when I was in the CIA about how foreign intelligence often operates. This is a little bit of an inside baseball for you who that kind of thing. There are a lot of countries that are very effective. Their services are very effective at surveillance and at certain you know, regime security issues. That's that's generally what most

intelligence agencies are. Their primary concern is right regime and keeping the people in power in power and stopping any threats against them. Most countries aren't really worried about foreign invasion. Most countries are worried about toppling from from the inside um, and they get very adept at dealing with that threat. But they also often operate in places where they can be really ham fisted. I guess that's kind of the wrong term for Saudi Arabia, but you know what I mean.

They can be clumsy and sloppy and get away with it. And that's what I think happened here. The Saudias, the Saudi intelligence services, the Saudi police. It can be thuggish in Saudi Arabia, and can be thuggish in other Middle Eastern countries where they have a lot of sway, can't really be so thuggish in Turkey, and that may have been the miscalculation here. They thought that they could get away with this, and they're not used to operating on foreign soil where there's also a very by the way

thuggish intelligence apparatus, apparatus that is at work. So a lot of intrigue here. We'll be right back. There's been a change in the last few months. People have started to realize that social media platforms are not a public utility. They're not there just for the free exchange of ideas. They are Internet companies, but they're also media outlets. They are platforms, and they make editorial decisions all the time.

And guess what, the big ones out there are making editorial decisions that favored Democrats, progressives and the left, and they're doing it on a regular basis. You know this. You've heard about the shadow banning, you've heard about the d platform NG. How about we start our own social media platform where there's none of that stuff about bias, no conversational health, nothing like that at all. Snippy dot com. Is it? S n I p p y dot com. I have an account there. I post. You should be

posting too. We're gonna work it into a roll call. Snippy dot com. It's a place where the founders are all about the First Amendment, free expression and no censorship, no agenda ever. S n I p p y dot com. Snippy dot com. Okay, Christmas, do you need to go in the same way that you came out today that we're organized in this camp game for our country. That's right, folks. The Beeto song b E t O instead of fly

m c A wow it. I would say it's embarrassing, but it kind of goes beyond that to just astonishment. Why would people think this guy is so cool? What about what is there about him? I really think that this is the mainstream media has an ability to take people who aren't that impressive and through narrative creation, make them something of a pop culture icon in politics, the same way that they can take in the h entertainment industry somebody who's not really that talented to make them

into a pop star. They can do that with politics on the media side of news and politics. I think that's what they've done with this beeto guy. I really don't get it. I'm I'm being completely honest with you. Look, with the Obama thing, I understood what the left was

going for with that, right, I got it. He had that whole you know him, um, you know he sometimes he would talk to sort of professor, but then some of those you have the booming voice, you know, you do this booming voice thing where he was just you know, some people say this and that, and you know, like

he he sounded, he sounded presidential. To the left, they thought he was really charismatic, and he he was able to give a good prepared speech off the cuff, really unimpressive, but he could give a good a good prepared speech. But they've tried this with others now too. You know John ass Off, as I mentioned, Wendy Davis. You know,

they and the whole Kennedy crew. That's all a construct, the notion that the Kennedy's are so exceptional, and even they tried to mold Bato into a an extension of the Kennedy lowers and oh he's kind of like JFK because he's young. It's sort of Hanson. The whole notion of calling this guy Beeto, by the way, is just such it's just such nonsense. Really, you know, you know you're not Hispanic, so why you would just have this Hispanic nickname? Strikes me as very obvious that people would

just call you Beto. Really your your father, you know, Mr Mr O'Rourke was like, I'm gonna call my son Beto. Um strikes man. Maybe maybe it's true. I mean, I'm maybe, but it's the all thing strikes me as a bit as a bit odd. Now, I'm not going to make

fun of people's names, but I mean I'm not. I didn't call myself, you know, when en gu y e n or something, which is a fine name, but it tends to be a name associated with Southeast Asia, right, I didn't just adopt some name from another culture and be like, yeah, I'm basically a part of that culture. It might as well be. It's it's cultural appropriation what Beto is doing. But reporters and and the left and the Democrats there obsessed with this guy. It's weird. It's

it's really in the realm of creepy. And here is for example, here's just one example of this. I mean, here's a reporter who's supposed to be interviewing Beto A. Rourke and this is what she says to him during the interview. Play clip nine obvious strategies that I've seen himployed in in a modern campaign. We just literally show up everywhere all the time for everyone. You can't go ten feet without an interruption from the betto backer, love you to thank you all a star. No, No, there's

just so many great people who are star. Beato, you're a rock star. You're amazing, Beto. That's a reporter. He's got the mic in hand, the whole thing. You're a rock star. Really, that's what you say to the guy that is the is your interview subject. Now, look, I know people were saying, oh, you're so great, but does anyone has any reporter, uh from the big mainstream journalist

outfits out there? Has anyone on the left or even in the main the quote mainstream media's down the middle of journalists the big lie, but they still cling to it. Have they ever gone out somewhere with Trump and like, wow, you're you're a political phenomenon the likes of which this country has probably never seen. Um, does anyone ever say that, they say he's a rock star? I mean Trump's If Beto is a rock star, Trump is a is some kind of superhuman superstar, right. But they would never do that,

And I'm not saying that they should. I just want to note the comparison between the two, because when you take a look at it, you can find very obviously that you know, they they buy into this mythology on this guy Beto. But everyone who says, by the way, you know, oh, he's so handsome, he's so charismatic, I don't see it at all. I don't none of it. I'm like the guys hes okay, lookig and you know, it sounds okay, And the whole thing thing strikes me

as kind of phony. But I guess there's a a a kind of mixing here in their minds of that running a person him a red state as a down home Democrat who can speak to the whole country and but also has that kind of youth and cool charisma thing that Obama had. So it's almost like the best of Bill Clinton, the best of Obama politically speaking, pulled together. UM and I think that is how they view it. I think that's kind of the way that because they're

obsessed with this guy. And I'll tell you this, and I've seen some other saying and I think it's true. They know he's gonna lose. He's gonna lose by double digits. I've beenelling he's gonna lose by by nine or ten points. They think he's gonna run for president, that's what they think. They think that he'll have a good enough showing in Texas that the case will be he'll win all the blue states and be competitive in the red states, and

he can take on Trump. And I'm here to tell you that Trump would crush him so badly he would flee the scene. But dude, seriously, yeah, dude, seriously, what this not? Not that's cool. I'm a prince, she's a princess. We were gonna you know, we messed around at the party, so we're just picking up when we left off. But did she into it now? She told me earlier she wants to d from the P from the P. Yeah, that's me, the prince, the P. I'm the p here

the prince. What is she gonna made a contract or something? No, but I mean, did you ask her if she wants to mm hmm, well, I guess not really. Okay, In case you didn't know, that is a kind of public service announcement from Amnesty International, which is an organization that apparently has a lot of time on its hands. An Amnesty International thinks that people need to be told via fairy tale that there's to be no uh no kissing women who are asleep. This guy also this this it's

a cartoon. We played to the audio from it. He kind of like reaches like he's gonna do a little grop grop thing while this woman's passed out. And you know, this follows last week when you had Christian Bell, who is a celebritante. Does not strike me as very bright. She's a fine actress, I guess, I don't know. She kind of plays in an attractive, youngish blonde female. I've never seen a really extend herself. Yeah, but who cares. I'm not a thespian critic or a critic of theater.

But she said that she's worried about what will happen to young women that see or people in general, including her daughter. I think she said with a fairy tale of sleeping beauty who was kissed to wake her up from her dream, because that there's a violation of consent

that goes on there. Now, I put it out to you last week that the point is really not that there's a consent issue, because we're talking about a witch who has magic apples and somebody's in a coma from eating the apple, and it is a it is a fairy tale, and really, if the only way for her to be awoken, which is the storyline, is by a prince to kiss her, he saves her life by kissing her.

So it's really almost like he's performing mouth the mouth resuscitation, I would say, and therefore he does have consent if we're going to take it to this weird place where we're talking about this, because if somebody is choking and you give the mouth the mouth resuscitation, you don't have to say, hey, can you can you verbalize that you're choking and I'm gonna give you or you know, or they're they're hardest stop. I know, choking is the heimli

hardest stop. You get the idea, Uh so, mouth the mouth resuscitation, you know, in a fairy tale is really what we're talking about here. But they ran with this. They didn't stop. They weren't. They weren't. It wasn't enough for them to just say I have an actress say this, because there was another one. I forget who. Another actress came out, Oh, I'm worried about fairy tales and the patriarchy.

So they're they're destroying centuries old stories that is in still very basic one creative sensibility in young people, but also have some basic morality and tales of good and evil and their fairy tales they're meant for amusement. I promise you, I don't know a single guy who in college age was like, well, because the handsome prince can kiss the girl in the coma, uh, I can kiss this girl in real life here, Like, no one would ever think that. Nobody, no human being has ever ever

ever thought that. So this was a problem that did not exist. But now they've gone even further with it. And you know in that video, I don't want to play it again for you because you already heard it, but you know there's some very dare First of all, there's a curse and there's some they make it very clear that there's some kind of crude sexual humor in there as well, referring to the initials that he uses and everything. And he's clearly supposed to be an entitled

frat bro the prance. I mean, there's there's all the the patriarchy left wing stuff is there. But you know, this is what the what the left doesn't yet grasp

is that they lose on this stuff. They lose on these culture issues where they are acting like maniacs um and And this brings me to not just this battle over fairy tales and consent, but this whole this whole story that broke today about how Trump is taking is telling the d o J now um that they should This is this is the storyline at least that transgender could be defined out of existence under a Trump administration. Now, that is such a loaded headline. That is such a

loaded headline in so many ways. One of them is that no person can be defined out of existence. A person is a person, and all of us have equal rights under the law as people. This is a question of whether you can create an additional detected class of people who have additional rights to everybody else based upon this designation of transgender and the left is very upset about this because the transgender issue. They say, transgender rights

are human rights. Very upset. This has led to all the bathroom policy fights, and there's this tremendous focus on this issue right now because they view this as one of the places where Trump is being a you know, Trump is being a savage. Trump is being so heartless

and cruel and all the rest of it. Meanwhile, no one can really have an honest conversation on the left about what's going on here when they say that he's Trump is going to redefine And this is one of the very uh skewed ways that we always have to have conversation with the left is that if something is one way for four thousand years and then the left

says it's now another way the next day. When we say, well, hold on a second, I don't think that's really accurate, they say, oh, they they want to change this whole concept. They want to change things. I said, well, I thought to be a progressive, aren't you always changing things? But this is central to how they operate. The changes that progressives get in culture, in law, and society must be

considered permanent. The changes that conservatives get even when it is a change back to traditions and back to what we all consider normative. That's disruptive and crazy and regressive and horrible. So their victories are permanent. Ours are always up for further battles and further further debate. Um Transgenderism is a very tricky issue for a lot of people I know, and I'm very friendly with a number of

transgender people in my day to day life. And let's always remember that you have to be polite and decent to everyone you know. There there's no room for being nasty to somebody, especially if you take the position that I do that as genderism is largely an emotional, uh disorder, then you want to be kind to somebody who has

who's having a struggle. They're having a problem, they're having an issue, right the same way that if I met somebody who said, you know, I'm I'm really struggling in the grips of alcoholism, there's nothing to make a joke about or be nasty about. You. You want to as a human being, support them, reach out to them, assist them in that struggle, because we are all struggling. But that's on the human to human level. On the policy level,

they can't even define what transgender really is. And this is where they there's a very you have to watch their hands very closely as they play the three card Monty here or the Democrat Party. You have to you have to pay attention because they will say, well, the science is with us, but that's a lie because sex is in fact binary male female, and there has never been a human being who has two fully functional sets

of genital genitalia. There is a scientific terminology. I'm not trying to be you know, crass or puri into or anything like that. Uh, there is something called intersex or being a hermaphrodite. Hermaphrodite is a reference back to uh, the child of Hermes and Aphrodite that was said to be both male and female. That's where the term hermaphrodite

comes from, right, Hermes and Aphrodite, hermaphrodit, hermaphrodite um. But that intersex, which is the more commonly used term for that now, is never fully both you're you actually you know, and there can be some genetic there can be some genetic abnor analies in this. And again I'm not a scientist, but I do read a lot about this, and I'm trying to share that information with you and good faith and honesty. But here's the bigger problem that they have.

The people that are claiming to be transgender are not, by a lot or overwhelmingly, i should say, not, biologically intersex. And if being intersex, which is a physical characteristic, is the basis for transgenderism, then it doesn't. Then it does not extend to all the people that just say I feel differently, I have a psychologically based transgenderism. So this is why on the science they can't win this argument.

They have to make this an emotional argument. They have to make an emotional argument because what they're really calling for is the government's recognition and special protection of a psychological condition also known as gender dysphoria. And the viciousness with which the left will attack anyone who tries to have a good faith discussion about this tells you all

you really need to know. You know, when you see academics from respected publications right about rapid onset gender dysphoria, which just means people hear about other people who are transgender, young people in particular teenagers, and they say, you know, they're feel strange about their sexuality. Man, being a teenager's hard. I remember, it was not an easy time. And then

they think, well, I must be transgender too. Well, when you see that clustering and clustering that happening, you know that it is not a not an immutable biological characteristic. It's environmental and psychological. So now we're going to create a separate class. Legally, speaking of separate class, people can think of themselves wherever they want, right, you know, and you can change your name. You can tell me to change your name, you know. But sex is a definable thing,

and we are not changing the definition. We are just saying that it is definable male and female, and it is binary. There are not thirty seven genders, there are two.

There are not ten genders. There are two. When you be very clear about this, and if they're going to be distinctions in the law four people who are transgender, then it needs to be very clear what qualifies one as transgender and what we really mean when we say that, because what we're not going to do, and this is what the left wants to do, is pretend and force us all legally to pretend that there are not, in fact, just two genders that male and female are not verifiable, quantifiable,

real things anymore. I am fine with being understanding and decent and respectful. In fact, I think that it's a calling for all of us to approach our daily lives in that way. I am not fine with being legally forced into either accepting so vague a description and definition has to be meaningless, or to be forced into supporting a falsehood, a delusion. You know, if somebody who is male wants me to call that person, you know, Denise, I will do that. You can choose your name, and

I'm respectful of that. But if someone wants their driver's license to say sex unknown, I'm sorry, No, that's a problem. That's a delusion, that's not living in reality. Science doesn't support it, and it's an unreasonable position to take, and it's not one that falls under the oh, let's all just be polite to each other. Exception. Other than years ago the presidential race, I have never seen spirit like I see right now. I think the Republicans are gonna

do very well. People are tired of high taxes. We get we gave the tax cuts, We've done so much, and they want a strong military, they want protection they want safety, they want security. We give that. The Democrats do not give that. The Democrats don't know what they're doing. They don't know what they're giving. I think we're gonna do very very well in the race. Yeah, I think Trump's right. I think that we're gonna pick up Senate seats. I think it's gonna be fifty five have you heard

it here? First? Fifty five Republican Senate seats by by the end of this thing, not quite at the super majority of sixty, although wouldn't that be sweet. Mid term is gonna be tight, I mean House, rather, in the mid term's gonna be tight, very very tight. I I think it could go either way right now, and it's gonna be just a few seats that separates the Democrats and the Republicans at the end of the day. But Trump is an incredibly powerful voice in this whole debate

and discussion. I think that he's really making a very He's making the case very well. Which are the Democrats don't actually have an agenda or platform other than trying to restore the legal and cultural edifice of obama Ism while Trump is president, and they won't be able to do that, so this is really just going to be much more rhetorical battling, much more fighting it out in

the media and nastiness, and it really is. It is mobs or jobs, and the Republicans need to hammer that home the place that I think they're on that and they're doing They're okay, and they could be stronger on this.

But on healthcare, I'm furious with the Republicans because they don't have a unified message and because of a couple of very unreliable GOP senators, we don't actually have a real achievement you speak of in in the healthcare realm, and Obamacare is garbage and Trump is allowing people to get out of the individual mandate, but that and also giving states more flexibility in this, but they need to be telling people what that means and what it does

for them. You know, they are not effective messengers on healthcare, and that could be I really do think if if the Democrats when the when the House, it's going to be because of that issue. On the Senate side, however, Ted Cruz versus a Beto O'Rourke, no surprise here, Trump is going out there to Stanford. Stanford, Ted, and I just thought I thought this was a nice moment to play. Play clip twenty is Trump's on his way to Texas.

He's not lying Ted anymore. He's beautiful, Ted, beautiful, He's Texas. I call up Texas, Ted, Ted, Ted, Cruise and I had a very very nasty and tough camp. It was a competitive was a very tough campaign. Once today did and we got together and by the way, very late into the campaign, we last people were shocked. I said, don't worry, it's only equation of time. And then ultimately what happened. We fought it out. The outcome was obvious, and we have worked together very closely. I like him

a lot. I actually like him a lot, and he's a very smart guy. He loves the people of Texas, which I do. And in fact, right now, I guess they said they've never seen. It's like a big tailgate. It goes on for miles. It's over a hundred thousand vigour. It's incredible, the crowd all that's gonna be greeting Trump in Texas saying over a hundred thousand people have registered for this thing. Uh, We've had some fun with the

whole Beto nests on this show tonight. But keep in mind it's just yet another case study in the medium malpractice and in the bias that's pushing so much of what they do every day. I mean, this guy Beato, never had a prayer, never had a chance, but the media just tried so a thirty eight million dollars. Oh, they're going all in on this guy, all in on him, and I just feel like, you know, it couldn't be

any more obvious. They have very little interest in the fact that there's a much closer than anticipated Senate race for the seat, the Franken seat up in Minnesota. You know, you'll notice that not a lot of people, not a lot of people in the media are are paying attention to the fact there's a single digit lead right now for the Democrat in that in that Senate race who's

trying to replace the Franken seat. So, you know, the race where they think maybe they can get some big upset against Ted Cruz that gets all kinds of coverage by like Senator Tina Smith is the one I'm I'm talking about here. So she's just barely hanging on up there, and uh, we'll see um single digit lead in her battle will stay in the seat that she was appointed to following Franken's resignation. Our three coming up gonna be huge. Look, our president has normalized this kind of behavior, and as

long as he's in office, it's going to be the norm. Unfortunately, Oh, I think he's sitting there and he's sneaking a couple of things. First of all, I have Capital Police that are ten feet away too. He's thinking, I got my wife Lane, who is better than the Capitol Police. Three, he's thinking Merrick Garland, you know, verse my leftovers. I mean, he's getting away with murder and net net. I think he thinks this is this is the worst he gets. It's fine, but this is such a made up problem.

People are doing this because there is no other opportunity or no other opposite oversight. The Republican Congress has basically pledged fealty to Donald Trump. You have a Republican party who was giving aid and comfort to the Proud Boys and to white nationalists, and they become the party of white nationalists and all of their hatred. That's a bigger

deal to me than someone not getting their supper. Everything that God just said is either a lie, obtuse, or just bizarre, mostly lies, lots of obtuse and some bizarre too.

That's Philip Raines, who is Obama's former Deputy Secretary of State and a close I don't know if he still is because people eventually always fall out with the Clintons, a close associate of the Clintons, and there he was excusing what happened over the weekend, which was a confrontation between Mitch McConnell and some restaurant protester types where Mimch

McConnell was just trying to have dinner. He's there with the Lynch how his wife, and they're just trying to sit and I think they're like a Golden Corral or something, a very you know, normal everyday restaurant, and you've got people that are up in his face yelling at him, and we have the audio. The audio of it is not great. But here's here's what happened at this restaurant of the weekend, where once again civility out there, mob behavior, folks, jobs,

not mobs. That is the Republican model right now, because the mobs are everywhere with the left. The mobs are always tracking our people down to harass them. Play clip one get out, so you get the idea. It was another you know, well, you live our country, as some guy yelling at Mitch McConnell lives are crazy. I mean, it really is a delusion. It really is a mental impairment at this point to be a far left progressive

you cannot handle normal reality. And I think that you keep seeing this happening, and I honestly just get so tired of hearing from people that one it's not a problem. I mean that guy Philippe rains, we just came in with that clip. He says, you know this, this isn't a thing. No, it is a thing. He's talking about an incident of it. And there have been many incidents of this mob behavior from the left, mob behavior from Democrats who are throwing tantrums. That's all. This is a

public tantrum. And this notion that people have no other way of what do they think this achieves? Just does someone really think that by acting like a moron, Mitch McConnell's gonna say, oh, yeah, I hadn't thought of it that way. You're right, I am a Nazi. Maybe I should just stop being a senator. I mean, is that is that in any way realistic. Now. I also saw over the weekend. I'm always amazed at how many people that are supposed to have intelligent opinions are are actually morons.

Um And I know that this is a thing that happens. But you know, here's some guy named Wesley Lowry at the Washington Post. He wrote, he wrote over the weekend, after this miss McConnell thing, quote, yelling at elected officials in public is protected First Amendment speech, and it's pretty disgusting to see journalists lecturing our fellow citizens for directly petitioning government officials like the Philipe Brain's clip. Everything he said here is is wrong in in essence. Now, I know, people,

yes it is. It is protected speech, but that's irrelevant because the protected speech we're talking about here in a restaurant. No one's saying the government has a right to come in and arrest these people. But the establishment can say get out, you're trespassing. This is private property. They have

that right too. You know. The the left thinks that the First Amendment means they get to say whatever they want and act however they want, and nobody else gets to say anything about it because we're infringing on their right by exercising our right. They don't understand this. They have no concept of of rights existing in parallel to each other. You know, somebody can say something really stupid about Trump, and I can say that was really stupid.

That doesn't mean that I'm negating their First Amendment right. If I, you know, put tape over their mouth and lock them in a closet, that's probably kidnapping. But also it's that's negating their first Amendment right if I refuse to give them a permit to speak in a public park. When I give that permit to other people to speak in a public park because a viewpoint discrimination, that's not

respecting their first a momoment right. But in a restaurant, now, you don't have the right to go in to a restaurant and act like a moron anymore than you're the right you go in to a restaurant and play your you know, boom box, which we used to have some of. You remember we used to have those in the eighties and the nineties. The boom box. You remember, he is

carried around with you. I remember how cool you were in high school was almost directly correlated with how big your speakers were you know, you want a big speakers, then you were really cool. I always thought little speakers were much more esthetically pleasing. And people are like, why do you like the little speakers? Buck? And and one of the known speakers there there was a guy. There was a public pool that I would go to um

over the weeks. Well it's not really public, but a community pool whatever that I used to go to over the summer, and there's a guy used to show up there with and he would bring every time he was there, he would bring a little outdoor speaker with him and play his weird Buddha bar lounge music. And and I just think that that's such an toos weird thing to do. Like everybody else the pool wants to hear your music.

You know that that's a bold thing to do to inflict it on every Bring a Bluetooth speaker with you so you can blast your music at a pool with a hundred people. I think that's very very strange UM. And I think that, you know, it's it's something that people should not do. Anyway, back to Mitch McConnell, what's going on here? And this guy Wesley at the Washington Post is essentially doesn't understand where the First Amendment stops

and starts. And you see this from a lot of journalists, which you think that people who make a living from the First Amendment would have a better understanding of it. But their understanding the First Amendment is they have special rights and privileges and everybody else needs to just deal with it. Um. But that's not the way. That's not the way this is supposed to function. That's not how this is supposed to go. And for the Philly Brains thing, I need to say that we're giving comfort to white

nationalists and we're I hate this talking point. It's so vile, it's so despicable and unfair, and they keep saying and all the time, and it's just a way of shutting down any honest political dialogue, which is why people like me have increasingly said over the last six months, you know what, the Russia collusion thing. Now they know they can't win that you're just you're just gonna see that same that same mentality, that same insane tenacity around an

issue where they think they can destroy the president. That's going to be uh expanded to cover any number of things so that the craziness that led them to believe that Russia collusion was going to bring down the president. That same level of just bizarre, uh, will now be on everything, the twenty Amendment stuff, the confronting people in restaurants, because that was just the that was the the place where you had the first real symptoms of Trump arrangement syndrome.

The first major symptom was Russia is going to bring down the presidency. It's really gonna happen. Trump is a Russian stooge and a Russian pawn, where it's just a matter of time before we prove it. And now you see that because that's just not gonna work, they're now pushing out into everything else and you're seeing the same insanity and Philippe rains. They're saying that, you know, it's it's not a big deal that people were yelling at

Mitch McConnell. And remember, no one's saying these people should be arrested. We're just saying they're idiots and people shouldn't do this, and we should be able to share that opinion without people say you can't share your opinion. That's destroying the First Amendment. No, it is not. It is not, And I just think that this is one of these places where you know, you either have principles you don't. By the way, I'm not skipping over, we just don't

have in a list here. There were there were a bunch of people that were harassing nan See Pelosi over the weekend too, and they are total morons. Okay, they absolutely should not should not be given any respect or any you know, approval from anyone. I heard somebody say they were the Proud Boys. I don't know. I just know that there was a video of people, sorry, I'm getting over a cold, so my voice has been really shaky last week, video of people who probably yeah, that's right.

I had a called. I did the show every day. I don't miss the show when I'm sick because I love all of you so much and I can't. I can't skip a day in the Freedom HUD unless I have a work thing I have to do. But that's rare. But the people yelling at Pelosi, they've done nothing to help their cause and a lot to harm it. If their cause is, and I don't know what they're cause is, I'm assuming it's just anti left wing something. But the left you're doing there a huge favor. No matter who

you are. If you say you're on the right, and I know some people are talking false flag, I haven't seen any evidence of that. If you say you're on the right and you are screaming and yelling at people on the left, now you give them the ability to say, oh, see both sides are doing it, when both sides aren't doing it, but that one case will be magnified. So those imbeciles who are banging on doors and yelling at

Pelosi have done the far left a huge favor. I just saw the CEO of Global Verification Network last week here in d C. We caught up for a while and I said, Hey, Mark, how's business. He said, business is great. We've got companies large and small coming to us for their background investigations and vetting. And I know why that is, folks, because Global Verification is a US based,

veteran owned and operated background investigation company. Whatever your needs are for your HR department, or if you're going to be leasing out a property to somebody, if you need to make sure the person you are transacting business with is who they say they are, you want a US based company, a veteran owned and operated company, one that doesn't offshore data, doesn't send your stuff overseas and really just act as a middleman taking a cut. Global Verification

Network does it all here. It's headquartered in Chicago. This is an all American company. Folks call them eight seven seven six nine five nine. That's eight seven seven six nine five s nine. Tell them Buck Sexton sent you. Or go to my GVN dot com. That's my GVN dot com. Specifically, one of the biggest challenges you have. You were screamed at for four hours this week at a town hall on homelessness. Homelessness is nearly up fifty in your city since you became mayor, according to the

l A Times. Now there's a typhus outbreak, likely due to the booming number of rats attracted by all the few food and human waste. It's in skid row and other places. Um. Some critics might say, Hey, Mari GARCETI, why are you traveling the country campaigning for Democrats in the midterms when you have this huge crisis in your own backyard. Well, I think they're linked together, and I welcome a national conversation Washington, d C. Where they're more

homeless per capita. Where you see in Seattle and San Francisco, and you see in red and blue cities a mental health crisis. And you know, mayors, as I said, can't avoid that. A lot of people told me never touch the issue of homelessness, but I am so passionate about it. We have people who are dying on our streets from opioid addiction. UM. I'm so proud of voters in Los Angeles who passed the two largest measures in the local

level in US history to combat homelessness. This is what people say is an unsolvable problem, and I'm committed to solving it. Somebody put Mayor Garcetti of l A's answer there on the poop patrol because that's what it deserves. That was incredible. So there you had lib lib Tapper over at CNN liberal Jake Tapper um also known as fake Tapper, and and he is he's asking Garcetti about the uh, the whole situation of homelessness in l A, which I've seen with my own eyes and I'm sure

many of you have two, is appalling. There are ten cities in parts of l A. And it's gotten so bad now that there has been a typhus outbreak. Now, for those of you who are wondering, why would why would there be a typhus outbreak because of the homelessness problem, It's because human feces attracts rats, and the rats attracted to the human feces carry fleas, and the fleas carry the typhus plague or not really technically plague, but typhus disease.

Although the plague bubonic plague was carried by the fleas on rats that came from the East into the Mediterranean, as you all know, and lad you about a third of Europe being wiped out back in the day, the Black Death, bubonic plague, all the different names for the same thing. So there is an outbreak of typhus in Los Angeles, which is a pretty scary public health issue. And here you have the mayor of Los Angeles, who's a mayor. Okay, he's not a senator, he's not a

state or national level politician. He's the mayor. And he's going around doing his whole hey, I want to be famous and campaign for Democrats thing. He's asked about the homelessness problem. You know, there's really a map. I've seen it. There's a map in San Francisco to show you where people are noting that there is feces on the street. And in that map you can see that there's a tremendous concentration and something. I know, I know, we're talking

about poop. I'm sorry, guys, it's gross. I hope you're not eating. This is a real public health problem, all right. I will not avoid the poop just because it's smelly or something like that. Uh So, I guess I will. You know what I mean, you know what, you know what I mean. But Garcetti's answer is so classic slimy politician. He's asked about the homelessess problem and he immediately says, well, everybody's basically got a homelessess problem now, and that's not

the point, and that's not even entirely true. L A is among the worst in the entire country, probably second only to San Francisco right now. And it's a relatively new problems up since Garcetti became the mayor of Los Angeles. But notice how he goes in this hole. You know, it's a it's a mental health crisis, and I'm committed to solving it. And he gives this answer that if you weren't paying attention. You can come away from and think, Wow, this guy is really on the ball, and then you

realize he hasn't said anything. He's essentially done the usual lib trick of all I've got and I've got some things that we got to talk about. We really care, we're emotionally connected, and solutions and think outside the box. All this gobbledeegok, I mean, all of this clap trap. But he doesn't give you a solution. He doesn't give you an answer or a way of dealing with the problem. He just says, yeah, you know, I really care and I'm on it and we're going to fix this. And

you see this so much with the Democrats. It's really a reminder of how the Democrats are operating in general right now. And what they're doing is effectively to connect, trying to connect emotionally with people without having to put forward any of their policies to try and make it seem like they care all feel off, feel your pay That's what they're you know, and that wasn't the only thing that Bill Clinton was feeling back in the day.

I'm just saying, I'm just saying, ah, I'll lock you know, also grapefruits in the grocery store and all kinds of you know, orbital things, orbital objects. But you know, Clinton aside for a moment here. The problem that Democrats have is the more people understand about what Democrats want to do when it comes to governance, the less they trust govern The less they trust Democrats with governance. Okay, so

you have to keep that in mind. And the more that we find out that the Democrats don't have any solutions, the less will listen to their Oh, I've got solutions, talk solutions, Like what, how do they want to deal with homelessness? The answer is they don't want to clear the homeless off the street and tell them that, you know, and essentially enforced vagrancy laws because that seems mean, right, yeah,

you can't do that. Well, if we're going to create a system for keeping people off the street, and we have places for them to go that are meant to give them a safe place to sleep, food to eat, and help to get back up on their feet, which we do as a country. We do it better in some places than others, but there are programs that exist for that purpose. If we have those programs, we should also be able to say hey, you can't sleep and live and poop in the street, because that's what they're doing.

And it's not good for the people that are living on the street. It's not safe, it's not sanitary. But the liberal mentality is that they don't want to enforce the laws against the less fortunate because they want to use the less fortunate as a political paut right. They want to use the plight of people who live on the street to say, oh, you know, we need we need more funding, we need more funding. You know, look at the big mean Republicans with their tax breaks. Nobody

is homeless because of a Republican tax break. Nobody is homeless because of Republican fat cats doing you know, private equity restructuring or something. People lose their jobs. I mean, I'm not saying it's all fine, but you know, they take it to this point. And and the other issue

is you look at mental health as a factor in homelessness. Um, yes, that's true, but really what he means by mental health is is generally, uh addiction, That's the primary, the primary factor that you find with homeless populations all across the country. Putting aside this whole homeless by choice movement, which is a new thing which is happening in this country as well. People say, oh, housing is too expensive, I'm just going

to choose to be homeless. But you know, I would I would tell you that it's roughly seventy of the homeless population is the number that I believe I've seen, but don't quote me on it um, but it's a huge majority for sure. Of a homeless population has either a drug problem, a drinking problem, or a serious mental health issue, very severe schizophrenia, or any number of different diagnoses.

And that means these are people who need help, and it is not helping them to leave them in the public square, literally in the public square, to engage in all kinds of you know, human activity and bodily function at things that are unsafe and you know, not the way that people should be living. But that means you're gonna have to have police and social workers and others come along and say, all right, you gotta come with me. We're gonna get you off the street. We're gonna help you.

You don't just leave them there to wallow in their filth, because that's what the a c LU says. Freedom is what is the gravest threat facing this country right now. You might think Fiat currency and an unsustainable deadload. You might think radical Islam, or Chinese aggression, Russian nuclear fallout. I don't know any number of different things that could

come to mind. But Occasio Cortez, who is soon to be a sitting US senator and darling of the left, has a very different idea about the single biggest, most existential threat to the United States. Here she is, in her own words, Cecil Grandis country was too so we made years before. We have a prance. I'm doing this before. None of these things aren't the ideas, but we have such a context. We had a tree with a nomination at this time it's Nazi journey. And as that's right,

we're talking about Nazi Germany. Now it's better be very serious. I assume she must be talking about what happens when China's economy surpasses our own and we have a country with a billion people that wants to be the pre eminent global superpower, or at least something incredibly serious that's really going to happen and be a real concern for US. Right who supposed to be the United States and what

we did. Was that the show's whole last, entire economy and industrialist and some people who work partial in this country we have to that's just true. It may see the fact of the matter, as we're dealing with that radical truth. No we are not. Oh my gosh, climate change, folks, climate change and renewable energy. I mean, but let's understand this. The push for renewable energy is not about economics. It's not about making a more efficient energy source for businesses.

Renewable energy is nowhere near as efficient as carbon based fossil fuels, right, There's just there's no comparison even still with some of the technological advances. But renewable energy is what we have to devote ourselves to as though it were an existential crisis similar to what we faced in the Second World War. I don't know how liberals go through the day being quite so crazy and quite so bizarre,

but but they obviously do. And there is very clearly a strain of contemporary liberalism that wants to believe in the extreme catastrophe scenario of global warming slash climate change. Last and I'm really starting to recognize this as a disease of the Western mind in the industrialized world of the twentie and twenty one century. That because there has been an existential crisis for the individual as the individual has moved away from God and a sense of a

divine purpose for being on this earth. The existential purpose that exists for these people is in fact existential crisis they've created in their mind via climate change. They need purpose. People, you go through you know Maslov's Maslow's hierarchy Maslov, that's right here on the Bucks Accent show. We combine Pavlov

with Maslow for Maslov, but Maslow's hierarchy of needs. A few were to take a quick look at it, there are, yes, of course, at the very top of it, you have the need, or should say the very bottom of it, where your baseline level of of what is most important to you. You know, you have the physical, and then you have security, and then you have social and then you have ego and then self actualization. At the very top of that pyramid, self actualization what comes after you

have the other things self actualization and ego. For the climate change loons are very much tied into each other. They exist to save the planet, and the saving and saving the planet is why they exist. Right, It's a self enforcing psychological loop that people that believe in this have. It's a belief. This is not scientific. It is a belief and the fact that they have been wrong so many times and are wrong not just based on the predictions, but wrong on their own day to day interpretation of

the facts. Right, they'll say, oh, all the scientists agree, but that they can't even put this in terms that any serious person could could discuss with them. I mean to say that we should mobilize millions of people in the in the entire economy towards renewable energy. And we did that with Nazi Germany and Japan because we didn't want our culture and perhaps even our people to be exterminated. There's really no serious threat that we're going to be

exterminated because of climate change. This is this is lunacy. This is laughable. And the people that think that I don't understand and you don't understand what's really going on going on have to take an even bigger leap that we don't care that will be extinct or that our children will be extinct because we've been bought off by

oil companies. This, this is crazy. This is once again, a mass delusion that has found a tremendous resonance with the left, and Ocasio Quartez just parrots it because she knows that two people on the political left, this is what they want to hear, even though it's crazy. That's right. Fight climate change like you fight Nazis, liberty, truth and great hair. Feel those funky beats. It's time for roll call. The best way to kick off a Monday is with

some awesome roll call action. Facebook dot Com, slash buck Sexton, and coming soon snippy dot com as part of roll call, So start signing up for snippy dot com and sending posts and questions and fun things there as well. We're gonna get away from the domination of Facebook as quickly as we can. Hopefully that's the plan. All right, we have Chris writing Charles Martel died on this day. Thanks for that excellent podcast. Any chance more Shields High podcasts

are forthcoming from Chris in Mississippi. Chris, The answer is, I hope so, but right now things are a little rough on the time front. And the truth is, as a business, the podcast world is very difficult to crack into unless you have volume, So you need a lot of episodes and a lot of listenership, and so to devote time to what is a labor of love that has no commercial enterprise value to it, which is what Shields High was. That is something that is gonna have

to wait a little bit. We're gonna have to wait to we get this podcast to let's say about half a million downloads a day, and then I'll do all the Shields High downloads you want. Eric writes, By the way, we're on the way. We're on the way to that half a million a day. We just need some of you to tell some friends about the show. You spread the word. You guys are my eyes and ears out there in the world. Eric writes, additional data points for your audio. Guy, I hear the problem whether on my

motorola or in my car. Um. Also, there was a prerecorded advertisement with your voice and it sounded perfect. Please fix the audio. The mic is quiet and tinny now mm hmmm um. There for the Friday podcast, the music is fine and they're interesting. We we had to do a different Freedom Hut remote location last week for a couple of days. So if that podcast was bad in terms of audio quality, it was just because we were

at a new location. But I'm back right into the center of the swamp here, so it should be all right now, Paul right buck. During Friday Show, there was a segment featuring a host from the view. You were quick to counter her idea that journalists are a protected class. Something was overlooked though. About halfway through his damon, she says, the tone comes from the top, an accidental statement of truth. I'm sure we're given the recent statements by Spartacus and

the decrease a disgrace. Secretary of State shields high Paul, Well, Paul, let me say that, yes, it is true that a lot of people in journalism and the media do get their marching orders from the very top in a whole bunch of different ways. And if you want to have a successful and lucrative career, what you generally want to do is find a way to part the dominant left wing narrative. That's the most successful and lucrative approach. Of course, we do not do that here in the Hut, Adam

writes book on the Saudi Debacle. I'd like to play devil's advocate here, h Could it be that the hardliners use the reporter's death as a martyr to arrest. The westernization of Islam. So far as everyone is canceled deals with it, it seems to workshields high. Adam, I don't think so, but I do have to admit that nobody really knows exactly what has happened just quite yet. So let's keep keep our eyes and ears open on this one and hope to get more facts, more information, more

data upon which to base our analyzes soon. Jen right the way you hear the news talk about the reporter Kashogi, At first, I thought it was one of ours. This is not our issue, not our citizen, and not on our territory. I feel like this wouldn't have been so big an issue of Trump had not just succeeded in getting our pastor back. Had not just succeeded in getting our pastor back. Why are these people not getting arrested?

And do you mean the people, the Saudi people that because they were arrested or are we talking about the caravan? I'm not clear. Write me again and let me know, Dale Buck, My wife and I just returned from our annual trip to Albuquerque and for the International Balloon Fiesta, and we always work in a couple of days in El Paso. While out there, I like to watch a lot of local news whenever I'm out of town, and during the commercial breaks there were obviously tons of political ads,

several which featured the highly touted betto oh Rourke. This was my first experience at length with Senior or Roque, Senior or Sennor oh Rourke. Sorry it's tough, Sennor or Rourke. It's not easy to say. And I came away thoroughly nonplused. He's not all that photogenic. He can speak in complete sentences, but the crappy throws out his purely style of her substance. He of course accused Republicans of a smear campaign against

him with his dw I and attempted escape. And when he threw out it's not a democratic Republican thing, I stopped worrying about him. Obama conserned me in two thousand and four. The speech to the d n C o'urora concerns me. Zero empty suit, except he seems to issue suits whenever possible. Dale Dale, I think that they are going to try to make a better way national figure.

I think that they do believe that even though he couldn't win in Texas, they might think of him as a presidential contender because that's the only way the Democrats really believe that they can win now is to run somebody who has a national level profile, even if they don't have national level political experience. That's what I think, um Chad writes, Buck love your stuff. However, you don't have the knowledge or experience to take on the vaccine topic.

Either learn more about both sides of the issue, or just don't talk about it. It's no elitist liberals who choose not to vaccinate. Many Conservatives like my wife and I, with over forty years in the healthcare field between us, don't vaccinate our six kids if you want to understand both sides and wanting to answer any questions you may have. For many, it's always an acceptable risk until it happens to their child. Good parents aren't the ones unwilling to

look at both sides. Shield side Chad okay, Chad, um. I don't pretend to have any knowledge about this other than just what I can read and what I can learn on my own. I have no professional experience in medicine or health at all. I do have access to a number of people in my personal and professional network who I believe would be considered world class m d s, including somebody who is chief of infectious disease at one of the biggest and uh most well regarded hospitals in

New York City. And they I can just tell you they have no time for the vaccines cause autism discussion or debate. They think that it's essentially like saying that the moon landing didn't happen. They do not take it seriously at all as an intellectual position worthy of debate. So I can pass that along to you. And by

the way, their conservatives. So I mean there are people that politically I happen to agree with, although that doesn't matter for this discuss should but they're not liberals caught up in some kind of a fad that They've asked them about this, a few of them, and they're very definitive. And I know people get very mad at me. I'm just the messenger here, man. I have yet to meet a doctor. In fact, that would be my challenge to you.

Give me a well regarded epidemiologist or or m D with decades of experience and an incredibly acclaimed record who will tell me that vaccines are dangerous and people should not get vaccinated, and then I'm happy to take that on board as something that might sway me to one

side of the argument of the other. I can just tell you chat, I've never come across that, and I've asked a lot of people about this, and all I get are people that get mad at me, and then they send me a link to a blog that has nothing other than just somebody posting other blog linked articles,

and that's it. So I asked. And when I when I talk about the global warming debate or climate change, whatever they call it, the other side says, well, there are no there are no well regarded scientists who disagree with us. And I know that's a lie because I can name well regarded scientists Richard lenz In, and you know that there are there are well regarded scientists on the record who say that it is not true the climate change is the threat that we are led to believe.

I just want a well regarded m D to tell me this, uh, and then cite the studies with the research for it, and then I'll take that on board. I just people get mad at me for this. I know they're very passionate about the topic. I am never given any reference or research that's serious. I'm just giving people that say, well, look at Susie so and so who talked to Bobby so and so who knows a guy who's like a really important researcher and says that,

you know, vaccines cause autism. People can get mad at me. All they want. I just I'll change my opinion when I have some facts or some research. That's all I don't know. So I appreciate you writing an in chat, and I'm glad that you love my stuff. And uh, I hope you don't get too mad at me for this response to you. But I am befuddled because I know people get mad at me for this one, including my own team. I don't know what they want me

to say. Give me some evidence and not something that's you know, like it looks like it's linked off the world in that daily website. Give me some actual, real studies and evidence, and uh, and then I will change my mind. Hold On Devon writes, Hey Bucks, this should be an easy movie quote. Uh pop quiz hot shot, Well, Devon is easy. That's obviously from Speed and it's Dennis Hopper speaking to Keiana Reeves, Mark Rites, help me understand kause Shogi a Saudi citizen killed by Saudia's in a

Saudi consulate on foreign soil. Why do we care about this so much? Well, Mark, we care about it so much because it's an opportunity to goad the Trump administration into either a poor reaction or to hammer the Trump administration for the underreaction in the eyes of the media, that's what they So they either want an overreaction that harms US foreign policy, or they want and under reaction that will be something they can just hammer Trump for.

But it's our problem because it's Trump's problem in the eyes of the media. That's the real answer. And that's what we're gonna leave you today for a roll call team every day this week, coming to you live from the Swamp.
