The Border Crisis Is Real

the buck Sexton Show. This is the buck Sexton Show where the mission where mission is to decode what really matters with actionable intelligence. Make no mistake America, You're a great American Again the buck Sexton Show begins. Analysts remember the d he's a great guy. Now. I will vote for the motion to disapprove of this, and I will continue to speak out. I do believe that there is at least ten Republican no votes. We'll see possibly more.

My reason for speaking out now is that I think we all need to think this through before we get too far down the road. I support his plan, I want to be sure that we have the funding for it. On the other hand, the way the President has chosen to fund part of it through a national emergency. I think it's the wrong way to go one. I think

it's going to set a bad precedent. In other words, future presidents would be able to use a national emergency going against the will of Congress for other issues, say the Green New Deal. And second, you know it's going to get tied up in the courts, which I think everybody acknowledges. Welcome to the Buck Sexton Show. I don't know why it is that only Republicans have to deal with this, but we do defections from our own When the going gets tough politically, Republicans get running for cover.

It's not the way it's supposed to be, but that's what we see happening here. Let me deal with this on a few levels. First of all, it's fine, and you know, we had Senator around Paul there and he's saying, oh, I don't like the national emergency declaration part of this. You know, you can say that you disagree with it. But Congress explicitly gave the president this ability. It has been used dozens and dozens of times over the course of forty years, and no one has ever challenged it.

It has involved the government taking action, the expenditure of government resources, and no one has ever challenged it, no one in the Congress, at least. Now. This is the first time that we're going to see in the forty some odd years of this bill, the Emergency Powers Act being around that you're going to have a real effort to say, oh, no, you shouldn't do this, you can't do this, and Trump may end up having to veto it. Now on the mechanics of this, I just would say

Congress gave Trump the authority. He absolutely has the right to say it's a national emergency because guests who determines that the president, He is, as you could borrow from Bush, the decider. It is his right to decide this issue. This concern about Democrat blowback, we're not. We're worried about the Democrats using a national emergency when in reality they didn't even go through that process. So Obama could declare DACA, which was just making up the laws he went along.

This law doesn't count anymore. The law that Congress passed isn't the law. I'm declaring what the law is. You can't be deported if you are somebody who claims to have been brought here as a child. That's now the law, says Obama. And not only is that the laws as Obama now we have federal courts full of activists, left wing judges that Obama appointed that say, oh, you can't undo that even when you're the president because of procedural or something or other. I mean, they're they're just making

it up as they go along. So this idea that we should be so concerned, we should be so concerned about what the Democrats will do with this newfound power of the Democrats do whatever they can they think they can get away with doing with the power they have, then they don't need any excuse. So that's a non starter of an argument for me. And you know that because I've been saying it on the show for weeks.

But on the national emergency component of this, you know, we have now been saddled with another media propaganda lie that because it is repeated so often, it's difficult, it's difficult to push back against it. You're just overwhelmed with it. The damn breaks all around you, doesn't matter how strong you are, the dam is breaking. Just the lies flood out around you. The border right now is a crisis.

It is more of a crisis than any of the national the national emergencies that I have seen, at least that have been declared in the past. This is a situation that is getting worse every month. And the reporting backs me up on this. The amount of human trafficking, sexual assault that occurs as a result of and as a part of this human trafficking, the drugs falling into the country. They're killing tens of thousands of our fellow Americans.

The cartels are richer than they've ever been, more powerful than they've ever been, more violent than they've ever been. And our cities are feeling the effect of this through the dead bodies piling up in morgues from overdoses, and they're saying that this is this isn't an emergency. Our border patrol and immigrations and Customs enforcement are overwhelmed on a daily basis now. They don't even know what they can do other than just try to keep processing people

as they come in. It is a de facto open border situation. All you have to do. And I've talked to Customs and Border patrol about immigration and customs enforcement on border patrol about this. I've talked to them about it. They say I'm right because they're seeing it every day. You show up with a kid, you claim credible fear. You don't even really have to do that, but it just makes it even easier. Show up with a kid,

claim credible fear. You get released in the interior of the United States, and then you never show up for your hearing. You're here, Scott, You're here, free and clear. They're you know, they're never gonna chase you down and deport you. All. Yeah, And the best thing you could do once you've done that whole process is marry a US citizen or have a kid on US soil. That's fast as possible, because then there's a zero percent chance, absent you're committing a heinous felony, that you're going to

be deported. This is a border that is at best slowing people down from coming into the country illegal. And for those who say they're not illegal, their asylum seekers, that's bull. The moment they don't show up at their hearings, or the moment they are not deported after they're denied

at their immigration hearing, they are illegals. So they're all illegals in waiting because saying that you don't want to live in Honduras anymore, or you don't want to live in El Salvador anymore because it's a poor country with lots of crime, is not actually an asylum issue. It's in I want to immigrate to America issue, and they're skipping the line that has millions of people already in it.

You don't have to take my word for it. All of the reporting on this right now, and I wish there would be a little bit more focus on this from the Republicans, because they're right on this one, but the reporting backs up what I'm saying. Here's a national security reporter for the Washington Post share this yesterday quote a father from Honduras who sat next to him. He said he and his fourteen year old son were on

their way to Harrisonburg, Virginia. They had crossed into El Paso and were released and on a plane less than forty eight hours later. CBP Customs and Border Patrol is moving people through as fast as possible. There's no room to hold them. This is this is an open border, folks.

You just have to know what to do. You just have to not show up and either have a criminal prior criminal conviction, or show up laden with drugs or a contraband of some kind, and you can come into the country and have a kid with you if you need to borrow someone else's kid, as they've been doing at the border, rent a child that has been happening at our southern border. They don't have the rooms, they

don't have the beds to take these people in. So what do they do that process them their release and process them release? And this is catching release on steroids. Here's this national security reporter for the Washington Post saying that within forty eight hours of coming to the border, a guy from Honduras is fourteen year old center in Virginia within forty eight hours. That just means that they're

here for good folks. There's what you think that you think that the Democrats, you think that the left is ever going to say, you know, well, we're going to the people that came here that scammed our system, that said they wanted asylum because of credible fear at the border, or showed up with a child and said that they were fleeing persecution or whatever, that were then released in the American interior with the agreement that they would show up at a an immigration hearing to test their claim

they're going to be deported. Now I don't think so. We all know that's not going to happen. I also want to see at the end of this year, what the the gallop pole or what however they do this pole or they say are you illegal? Oh, And that's how they get the twelve million, which is basically what

the number has been for the last fifteen years. Twelve million illegals, twelve million illegals, half a million visa overstays every year, hundreds of thousands crossing over the border illegally, and it's still twelve million illegals because so many of them are so many illegals are going back to Mexico and Hunduras and Al Salvador and China and Bangladesh and you know, you name it. They're they're going back home. Really, after all that, nobody believes that how bad is the problem?

You may be asking, you know that this national emergency, the national emergency that a lot of Republicans they here say, well, it's not really an emergency. And I don't agree with the president doing this. I mean, you know, if it were let's build a base in Syria so we can put a bunch more US troops there to try to build somebody else's country in society for them, which are people our men and women in uniform should not have to do, should not be told to do anymore. That's

not their job. That's not their role. They're supposed to protect us here in our country and our interests around the world. They're not supposed to be building other people's societies for them. I mean, our military is amazing, so we can do it, but it's not their job. But if that was how Trump used the national emergency, you could tell the political establishment would be fine with it. But because it's securing the border, which is completely out

of control right now, you don't believe me. Seventy thousand people showed up at the border last month alone, either were ineligible for legal admission right away claimed asylum. Seventy thousand was the number. That is astonishing. By the way, they think that number of seventy thousand is going to

go up next month, could get a hundred thousand. So here we are in the year twenty nineteen with Donald Trump, who were told as show's unophobic and says horrible things up Mexico and all this stuff, and we are getting on a runway here, a pathway to having the same kind of illegal entry year that we've had in the biggest years in our in our history. We are on a pathway right now to having upwards of a million

illegals entering the United States this year. Now, I know we're only a couple of months into the year, but it's seventy thousand a month, and it's wintertime and people and I had some libs say to me, oh, winner, in Texas, it's fine. It actually gets down into the thirties and the desert idiots. So this isn't when people particularly like to cross. It's better in some of the months that are ahead. So that's why the expectation is

that there's going to be even more crossing. And oh, by the way, this is systematic, meaning the word is out. The smugglers know it. How the smugglers, the coyotes who work for the cartels that are making hundreds of millions now some would say billions for the drug cartels. Smuggles know all they have to do is get the family to the border and tell them what to say and make sure they have a kid with them, you know, create the perception of a family if they're not already

a family. It's all they have to do. It's easy for them now because our system is now truly broken. People have been saying our immigration system is broken for years and what they meant was, oh, we need amnesty. I'm telling you it's broken because asylum is de facto open borders. That's what our law says. Right now, people say, oh no, but well they don't know what they're talking about because there'll be no interior enforcement. None of these

people are going to be deported. It's just a question of how many people want to come and how many of them figure out the magic words to say at the border to come into the country or at least in forty eight hours on a flight to Virginia. You think they're ever going to show for their immigration hearing police People will say that they will, but we now have As the data comes in, the numbers are smaller and smaller. The numbers are going down, but seventy thousand

last month alone. There's also the issues of the medical cases they're seeing now at the border. I mean it's we do not have a border patrol that is set up for this, the fact that the media jumps all over them because someone will die in their custody because they're sick and they don't even know about it. They're

not the Peace Corps, they're not the Red Cross. They're supposed to prevent illegal entry into the country, but now they're being told, you're essentially a frontline triage and food service unit for all the illegals who want to come in and claim asylum. Wow, that's where we are as a country right now. And that's what you have Republicans saying, I don't know if this is a national emergency or not. I don't think we should declare this as a national emergency.

Only only the GOP refuses to win, refuses to get it done and get its way. They'd like to tell us they will, but then they just fall down on the job time and again, say which will about the Democrats their status. They're authoritarians, but at least they're serious about implementing their iron fisted will on us. The Republicans just always collapse into this. Oh, I'm the most pure, I love the Constitution more than you do, and you

know nothing actually happens. I'm sorry, it's true. It's frustrating. We'll be right back. Is there a crisis at the border? Well, you tell me. Let me. Let me give you a little little vignette here from Washington Post reporting on this issue. I mean, the information's out there, it's just the way that it's packaged, the way that people are told to consume it and analyze it and think about it. That's where I think the breakdown is the informations there folks

about what's really happening at the border. Let me quote this to you. Across rural Guatemala, word has spread that those who travel with a child can be expected to be released from US custody. Smugglers were offering two for one pricing, knowing they just needed to deliver clients to the border, not across it, for an easy surrender to US agents. If this continues, I don't think there'll be anyone left in Guatemala. A man named Martinez joked the

men from his village near the town of Chikamula. We're all leaving, he said, bringing a child with them. Martinez said he used the family home as collateral. He had four months to pay off the twenty five hundred dollars. I need a way to feed my family, and this is it, he said. Okay, folks, I mean, I know that the guy was kidding, but here's somebody saying I

don't think there's gonna be anybody left in Guatemala. I was on Tucker Carlson Show when I pointed out, and then Tucker used this argument to great effect with his next guest, who is, of course an open borders advocate of some kind or another. If the people showing up right now from Honduras and El Salvador, if they can rightly be qualified as asylum seekers, guess what all of the people in Honduras, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Venezuela, why not Mexico,

all of them can seek asylum here. And when the word gets out even more, and it's already getting out, and that's coming from the mouths of migrants themselves, what do you think is next? Do you think that Congress is going to grow a spine and change the law so that there is no longer this loophole for surrenders at our border? Of course not. This problem is going

to get worse. We are going to see at least a half a million mark my words, at least a half a million surrenders and illegal entries this year in the country, as many as a million. It's going to be a huge issue in the twenty twenty election. But here's the problem. A wall won't stop this. I've seen them. I've been at the wall while they surrendered. The wall

is almost a beacon to these migrants. Now, yes, there's the wall where I have to show up and wait for the nice men to come pick me up, give me a warm blanket, and give me food, and send me on my way into the American interior. That is our border. It's not the secure border we were promised, is it, folks. He's holding the line for an Erica.

Buck Sexton is back well. I think there's direct evidence in the emails from the Russians through their intermediary, offering dirt on Hillary Clinton as part of what is described in writing as the Russian government effort to help elect Donald Trump. They offer that dirt, there is an acceptance of that offer in writing from the President's son, Don Junior, and there's overt accent furtherance of that is the meeting at Trump Tower and all the lies to cover up

that meeting. At the Trump Tower and apparently lies that the president participated in. That to me is direct evidence. But there's also abundant circumstantial evidence. Abundant circumstantial evidence, he says. Abundant circumstantial evidence, he says, isn't that a fascinating way of putting it? Here? And direct evidence? We are told, wait, I need to understand this. What is it that he has been able to find? What is it that Adam Schiff has been able to dredge up here that the

Muller probe has not been able to find. I mean, I think that's a really good question, because we have not seen any of this evidence of direct collusion. We have not seen any of the things that he talks about. This is like watching a crazy person explain how they're actually you know, the King of Siam or something. I mean, this is just outside the boundaries of normal political debate and discussion and discourse. What we see here is that they're just going to say whatever they think their base

and the left and the ferociously anti trummedia wants to hear. Oh, collusion has already been proven, you see, Collusion is already a thing that we should be aware of because it's already there what and they're going to move on from it. Though when you ask them show me that, show me this collusion of which you speak, they'll either mutter incoherently or move on to the next con the next series

of narratives and nonsense that they'll be putting forward. So John Cornyn, by the way, spoke to this play clip seven. I think what the Democrats are worried about now, is it, after all of the hysteria over the alleged collusion, that they're worried that more of report will come up with

basically nothing against the president as regards collusion. So that's why I think they're launching this full frontal assault, which, as I say it as a prelude to impeachment and will make sure that we can't get anything else done. They're trying to come up with something anything. They're going to rely on, from what I understand, a law from ninth teen twenty four to try and pry open Trump's tax returns now to unseal what is supposed to be

as a private citizen certainly sealable. They're gonna find some way. They'll take it all the way up to the Supreme court. I'm sure they're gonna fight and fight and fight because they want Trump's tax returns. You might say, well, Buck, why is it such a problem for them to have Trump's tax returns. Let's understand this. The IRS already has them.

The federal government already has these returns. They should be like Congress, you know, deciding that they're the ones who are going to understand, you know, tax law better than the irs. So they have to see this because because they'll be able to read between the lines, whereas the

irs couldn't. Can you imagine if you're Donald Trump, you know, the the army of tax attorneys and lawyers and these other people that I'm sure you have working on these things, and what you're going to have Democrat members of Congress that find this is where they're going to find that smoking gun that we've all been worried about. I already talked to you yesterday about obstruction. People have completely lost their minds on that as well. The President says that

it's a witch hunt. Well that's probably because it is a witch hunt. But even beyond that this line, you hear from the Democrats that the President can't say that he thinks that something is bad for some reason. Yeah. And by the way, producer Mike makes a great point here with all the people in the IRS. I mean, if you're going to talk to me about an organization that probably has more than its fair share of status

to anti trumpers, probably pretty high at the IRS. I'm not sure it's as bad as the State Department, which is full commie, but it's probably pretty close. If there was something that would that would nail Trump, that would just finally get even his most ardent defenders to turn on him, don't you think that somebody in the IRS

would have already leaked it. He'd be a national hero, be a superstar, gotta be a millionaire, get a book deal, he'd be on Oprah, he'd be on I was gonna say Larry King, but that, Oh no, he still has a show, doesn't he. Hey, it's Larry King, the only guy who could do the interviews. I know people still have his fondness for Larry King. What a strange, strange

fellow in so many ways. I think he was married seven times, which you gotta give the guy, you know, that's I don't know if it's endurance or if it's incredible vitality for a guy in his age. But anyway, seven times, But I digress. You know, they're going to find out whatever that they you know, they're going to find ways to pry open some of these closed circuits.

They're going to find a way to get access to information that they're not supposed to be able to see, and then they're going to make a big deal out of it. No matter what's there, doesn't matter what's there, doesn't matter what Trump's tax returns. They they'll find something some you know, all look at him with his his charitable donations, and yes, like do I think it's a little, you know, a little not great that Trump had a charity by a painting of him that he put up

in a golf club. I mean yeah, but you know this is who this is who people sign on for. This is the Trump that we knew. So that's not going to change. We signed on for an agenda and for a fighter against the left. That's it. I mean, I don't think anyone's looking to Trump to be a model of perfection. Brobabaly, No one's perfect. Don't even get me started. We were always led to be Oh Bush, you know, Bush was some guy who then nothing in

his past. I mean, look at what Romney has done now that the fighting is really tough when the GOP anyway a lot that I would want to point you here to say that there's uh, you know, reasons to reasons to be concerned about the direction of these investigations, just because we are dealing with Democrats who have no honor, who have no integrity, and will do anything they can, whatever they can to destroy this president. They will find

a way if it's open to them to what. It doesn't matter if it requires leaking information, doesn't matter, right, they will because for months it has been clear that neither Muller nor the anti Trump mainstream was going to find this collusion right, so they've been preparing this ground for a while. Democrats don't seem that upset about the fact that the Muller probe is ending, though, because they've known that there was no collusion. Really they've known that

that's where this was all heading. So now they're just going to move on to Plan B, which is going to be turn Trump upside down, shake out his pockets, see what falls out, and everyone around him, by the way, make sure that they're able to indulge this anti Trump vendetta by going after his family members, by going after all kinds of people who are just in Trump's orbit, make them pay all crazy legal fees, try to sully

their reputations. They are trying to isolate this president. That is something that they are in the process of continuously in the process of doing. So. This is going to be an onslaught. It's going to be an onslaught mostly of bluster. There will be a lot of preening monologues on the House floor. They'll be breathless overwrought denunciations of Trump in private and personal life. Okay, this is what's going to happen. They're going to say that he's a

threat to democracy. And I do think that they're going to because they can't help themselves. They're going to have a vote on impeachment. They're gonna because they want to run against an impeach president. But in the meantime, I was telling you earlier this hour at a real crisis, something that's actually happening in this country that matters, and that the government should fix it is the government's prerogative. Only government can fix the border. You can't do it.

I can't do it. We have no authority, we have no means. In fact, I'm sure the government would stop us from trying to help with the border right now, but they don't want to do that, and they don't want to focus on that. They they have other concerns that take up more of their time and energy. They want to make this about how the president is just the bad Orange man, bad, bad, bad everyone needs to hate him. And I think that it's so destructive and we're not even going to be able to understand for

years to come. Really, what this has done to our sense of any fair play and government, any good faith between the political parties. And if if that wasn't bad enough, I mean, do we have didn't Hillary say that there were oh yeah, oh yeah hollow play Clip two. There is enough grounds in what has already been made public for the government, for Congress in particular, to be doing more with it. And I'm pleased that under Speaker Pelosi, the Democrats are beginning to hold hearings and try to

connect some of these dots. Yeah, that's what this is about, connecting dots. You know, this is all about the Hillary revenge machinery. That's what this special Council has been That's what all these establishment elite types here in DC have been pushing for. Hillary was the candidate of the permanent ruling class, and the permanent ruling class feels a little a little bit unsettled because while there is the hyper elite in terms of wealth, the stratification, there is greater

than ever the cult of expertise. The people that are supposed to be running our lives day to day, those in the upper reaches of government and journalism and the culture and the media, they're not looking so hot these days. People are asking questions. We have the ability now to not just find out more about these people because of the Internet, but also to share that information more freely,

and we are not impressed. And there has been a recognition, and part of what Trump's presidency has brought about is that recognition that these people that think that they are so much smarter than the rest of us and should be determining how you live your life, they're not really that smart. They don't they don't have some great trove of wisdom that they draw upon that makes them very uncomfort, makes them very insecure. Humility is not something that the

elites embrace. For obvious reasons, and Hillary was a last gasp, a last gasp. I think for many of the elite boomer generation that the so called smart set that went to the right schools and held the right opinions and never really did anything but just kind of bounced around it. Look at these people, Elizabeth Warren, Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders, although he didn't really go to the fancy schools, but they've all just been pushed along without ever really accomplishing anything.

They've just found a way to work the system, and then they expect to sit atop the system and tell the rest of us what to do. And that mentality spread all the way into the upper reaches of the FBI with people like Sanctacomi and McCabe and Struck. They were the praetorians defending the republic from this rapacious, brash billionaire Donald Trump. They thought they were doing us a favor by thwarting the will of the American people. Don't you see that? Aren't you all smart enough to see that?

They would say, can't you tell don't you understand? They're people, persons, they're good with people. What the heck is wrong with you? That's what they would say, we'll be right back. Well, here's a preview of where all this stuff is going to be going pretty soon. It's in the New Yorker, which has completely just self immolated in its anti Trump hatred. As well, it used to at least have some good writing.

Now it's just another anti Trump rag. New Yorker, though, has this representative Schiff Shifty Schiff, the chairman of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, has hired a veteran prosecutor with experience fighting Russian organized crime to lead his

investigation of the Trump administration. Last month, According to a committee source, Daniel Goldman, who served as an assistant United States Attorney in the Southern District of New York from twenty two thousand and seven to twenty seventeen, joined the committee's staff as a senior advisor and director of Investigations. Oh, by the way, I believe before that he had been an ms or rather in the last year, so he's

been an MSNBC contributor. So now you get somebody from the Southern District of New York, which, as we know, is very devoted to this idea of taking down Trump. They're the ones that prosecuted Cohen. They're the ones who were involved in that, and they're the great hope of many Libs who, even when the Muller probe is over going to say, ah see, but the southern district of New York can get him. This is how lives approach, all of this, get him. How can we get Trump?

Not how can we make a better argument, How can we create some public support for our ideas? No, no, no, let's just destroy Trump because their ideas are crazy. In fact, we've reached a point now where Democrats find it abusive when you share their word for word ideas for governance, and you quote them and you tell people about what

the Democrats want. That's mean because when people find out what the Democrats want, things like the Green New Deal, no more cow farts, no more air travel, people say that sounds kind of crazy. I mean, cows, they shouldn't fault so much, but they're delicious. You eat them. You don't smell the smelly faults when you're eating them. So what difference does it make? But climate change? You know, Bernie's conflicted. He likes a good cheeseburger. Who doesn't like it? Oh, well,

there's some people out there. Oh, Kazi Accord. I'm starting to see this spill over now. The anti meat crusade is gaining some steam. I think they lose a lot of votes, that they really go down that one too far. By the way, we're gonna have someone joining us later on in the show to give you a sense where this is going out, where this is going my friend Ariel Davidson from the Federalist We'll be talking to us

in the next hour about ilhan Omar. And then the third hour we have somebody who is from a the c O two coalition. He's gonna come talk to us about how he's crunched all the numbers. He's a PhD statistician on climate change and he says that the fearmongering is just is just out of this world. It's completely unsupported by the facts. I think you'll really really want

to hear what he has to say. So we have a jam packed and stacked for you, and in the next hour I've got some other I've always got some tricks up my sleeve. I hope you enjoyed the conversation yesterday about rent control. Go back if you didn't get a chance. I think that's a really important second for people to hear, because if it shows you how liberals do economics, which is badly, there are a few things

What's going on here with Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, who I feel like increasingly is the Joffrey from Game of Thrones of the Democratic Party in that she's young, she's ignorant, but she has way too much influence and really doesn't know how dumb she is, which is a scary combination when you add all that together. But Ocasio Cortes is at least for now getting a little bit of negative attention because some interesting facts have come out about how she rose into this role, who backed her, and what

was done in that whole process. Let me break this down for you. She has a gentleman named Siah kat Chuck Robarti, who is a wealthy tech entrepreneur and is chief of staff to Okazio Cortes. There's a new FEC

a Federal Election Commission complaint. Now, before you dismissed this, remember the Libs want to get rid of Trump from being president because of a minor FEC violation about you know, whether he disclosed the payment that should have been disclosed to Stormy Daniels or was it a private payment that doesn't have to be disclosed. So, you know, Libs use the FEC as aggressively as they can with it's in

their favor. But here I'm sure that they will say that this conservative watchdog group's FEC complaint that remember this is this is coming from a conservative group. Let's let's be honest about what's happening here. But they'll say, oh, who cares, it's nothing, It's a nothing burger, And I gotta tell you it is. It is very interesting just to find out some of these facts. First of all, the chief of staff to o'cazio Cortez is a young

guy who made millions in Silicon Valley. Oh wait, you mean that this guy who is now at the you know, the the forefront in many ways of left wing politics in America as the chief of staff and close aid to o'cazio Cortes you tell me this guy is such a socialist that before he could try to impose socialism and all the rest of us, he was a quote founding engineer at a company that does payment processing at a Silicon Valley called Stripe. And he also had a

brief stint according to Politico on Wall Street. So a Wall Street, Silicon Valley millionaire makes his money and then decides that he wants to get involved in Politz. So he makes his millions by thirty three, and now he wants to tell you about what you should pay in taxes, and what the government should be able to tell you you can and can't do, and all this stuff, right, I find this troubling. I find it, of course hypocritical, because this is what the Democrats always do. You know,

our millionaires, conservative millionaire's bad, liberal millionaire's good. And behind so many of these left wing causes and activist groups and progressive community organizers, you have people that made a whole lot of money in the system that they now try to fundamentally transform and are very critical of. You know, I got to tell you I would be a lot more inclined on a personal level to be okay with

taxes going up. If I had already made my fifty million or my ten million, i'd say, hey, you know, it probably doesn't matter as much to me. I've got assets, I've got income that I don't have to work for. But as that is not the case. And so I am, like most of you who are listening to this show, I think it's really unfair that the government takes as much from me as I'm sure you do as well as it does. But this is classic, right, this is the let them eat cake phenomenon among some of the

most left wing socialist commie Democrats out there. But let me give you the the additional And so that's just just start of the fact that our chief of staff is a Silicon val millionaire, and that some of the most progressive grassroots activists out there are getting checks from millionaires and even billionaire millionaires and billionaires, as Bernie would say, even billionaires. This guy Pierre Omidyar, he's funding all kinds

of left wing stuff. I mean, the Washington Post is owned by Jeff Bezos, so it is essentially an unregistered political action committee for anything Amazon or Jeff Bezos related. Right, I mean, this is you know, people, you need to understand that the media is now a tool that is used by a lot of different people for very specific purposes, and just being in the media is in no way

some sort of guarantee of ethics, authenticity, independence. In fact, some of the worst never trumpers get their money from this Omidyar fellow who founded eBay. So he is a super wealthy guy. They get their money from him, and so he writes them checks to be essentially a trojan horse within the Republican Party, within conservative media at least. And some of the most detestable never Trumpers they get their money from Omidyar Sykes, Crystal. This is who's funding them,

A left wing billionaire, folks. I think that's significant. So remember that as you hear from the never trumpers, we're all about principal, We're all about, you know, doing what's right. We don't like Trump because he's mean and he had three wives. Well there's more at stake than Trump's marital history in this country. I hate to break it to the never trumpers. Back to this piece though, and it's a bombshell. Fox News all over at Washington, Examine, all

over at New York, posts all over it. This is what Fox wrote about this. The latest Federal Election Commission complaint accuses Occasio Cortez and chok Rabarti, her chief of staff, a violating campaign finance law by funneling nearly one million dollars in contributions from political action committees that Chakrabarti established

to private companies he also controlled. Although large financial transfers to packs from limited liability corporations are not necessarily improper, the complaint argues that the goal of the extensive scheme was seemingly to illegally dodged detailed legal reporting requirements of the Federal Election Campaign Act of nineteen seventy one, which are designed to track campaign expenditures. Ocasio Cortez, of course, says there is no campaign finance by violation. Well, we

will see. We will see. Even if there's no violation of the law per se, this starts to look a lot like Okazio Cortez was trying to do the equivalent in politics of stashing your cash in an offshore account. Now that can be legal if you declare it right,

but usually people do this to avoid scrutiny. And I have to say, I think it's it's particularly interesting that the progressive vanguard led by Ocasio Quartz now has to deal with, at least momentarily the reality that a Silicon Valley millionaires at the heart of this, and that a very at best opaque and intentionally opaque system of hiding where funds are going was set up here. You know, this is the woman who's supposed to be all about, you know, taking on the elites and the the Wall

Street class. And you know, Democrats are so so bizarre in this because they take money from Wall Street. Hillary Clinton got all the Wall Street money in the last election, all of it Billy there. You know, think of a billionaire and the chances are the billionaire is a liberal. I mean, at least most of the ones you know, of their liberals. There are some conservatives. There's the Koch brothers.

They're libertarians. They're not really liberals or conservatives rather, but you know, you want to talk about liberal billionaires are all over the place. Gates is a lib, Bloomberg is a lib, Oprah's a lib. You know, just go down the list. Every billionaire you can think of, three out of four, maybe even nine out of ten are liberals. But but money in politics is this mantra that the Democrats chant as though it's only on our side, right, Oh, we want to get the money out of politics. Seems

to me to be very very convenient for them. They say this, and then we find out that they have plenty of money in politics for them, and that, I think is an obvious place where you see this liberal hypocrisy coming to the service. By the way, since we're talking about AOC and communism and socialism, which are much closer than the left wants to believe. In fact, the early Communists referred to themselves because I actually read the

stuff I have actually read Marx. I bet you AOC has never actually read an entire if you asked her to go through the works of Marx and Engles, it would be laughable. How little she knows. She just knows the very surface layer of it. I wonder if she even knows who angles is. And I mean that, but the very surface layer of socialism is an ideology and where it comes from. She just knows the MSNBC watered down version of It's just like free stuff for people,

and it's great. She has a clear preference for not just the far left in this country, which she is now the leader of the de facto leader of the far left, but she does not want to denounce her fellow travelers, her quasi commies, like Venezuela's Maduro. Play fifteen, What are your thoughts on the Venezuelan crisis? Maybe would announce the mad Yeah, so I think that that this is absolutely a complex issue. I think it's important that

we approach this very carefully. One I am. I'm myself just like anyone else who is absolutely concerned with the humanitarian crisis that's happening. And I think it's important that any solution that we have centers the Venezuelan people and centers the democracy of Venezuelan people. First. I am very concerned about US interventionism in Venezuela and I oppose it, especially when we talk about a figure like US Special

Envoy Elliot Abrams here. I think it's he's pled guilty to several crimes related to Iran contra, particularly under this administration and under his leadership. I think it's a profound mistake. Wow asked about Maduro and what does she do denounce the Trump administration's envoy to deal with the Venezuela crisis. You see in aoc land. Maduro isn't the bad guy.

Elliot Abrams is the bad guy. Huh. I wonder what ilhan Omar would have to say about Elliot Elliot Abrams, by the way, I'm sure she's already waited, and I'm sure we could probably find that. But that tells you a lot about the left. The problem is not Nicholas Maduro and the destruction of Venezuela at his hands. It's Elliot Abrams trying to feed people. So I know we have a lot of patriotic seniors who listen to this show, and some of them have probably heard of the AARP,

maybe some of them are already members. But let me tell you, AARP is much more left wing than you've been led to believe. And that's why they fought tooth and nail for government run healthcare, and they actually scripted portions of White House speeches under the Obama administration to get Obamacare passed. You don't want that. What you want

is AMAC. Why AMAC? Well, it was founded by an Air Force veteran, and you get all the benefits of AARP with AMAC, but you also get an organization that shares your beliefs and pushes for policies that are going to help support the America you believe in. So yeah, you get discounts on car insurance, hotels, roadside assistance, but also you get an organization that wants a secure border, fiscal sanity, strong defense. Check out AMAC. Join AMAC right now at AMAC dot us, slash buck. That's AMAC dot

us slash buck. Contry for allegiance foreign country allegiance to a foreign country. Representative Ilhan Omar says M talking about Israel there. This is not something that usually people bring up because it has the ring of anti Semitism to it, and a lot lot of people, including Democrats, are pretty upset about this. But I've got somebody who has been following this controversy closely. She's been a vocal about it on Twitter, and she joins us now. Ariel Davidson is

a senior writer for the Federalists. You can read her latest at the Federalist dot com. You can follow her on Twitter at Ariel Davidson. Ariel, good of you to join us. Thanks for having me Buck. All right, so what's going on here? Why is why is a Representative Omar on the hot seat once again? Well, she's on the hot seat. Once again, you hit the nail on

the head. She's basically calling upon issues with the fact that for some reason, the allegiance with Israel that the United States has is a question of patriotism for those who actually support Israel. And we don't talk about any other alliance that we have with any other nation in this regard. And so I think, first and foremost, when we talk about anti Semitic tropes, the dual loyalty one is probably the most one of the most common ones

that's existed for hundreds of years. It's this idea that you have to question agree with Jewish members of Congress, that you have to question whether they have loyalty to United States or whether they have loyalty to Israel. And so I think it's hugely problematic. And again, think about the way she talks about our alliances with other nations. Do we question when people, you know, sign some sort of when we have some sort of treaty with the UK or with France, Do we ever mention this idea

of dual loyalty. We never would. It's outrageous. So the House Democrats, this was the story from today and yesterday that the House Democrats are taking floor action in order to condemn the comments of illan Omar. Obviously, I'm gonna guess you agree with this, Ariel, But but is it enough. Some have said that she should lose committee assignments, that there should be something beyond just what we've seen, especially given that comments made by a Republican. I'm actually blanking

on the guy's name right now in real time. But comments made by a Republican not long ago got him kicked off of his committee. Steve King, there we go, got him kicked off his committee assignments. Yeah, no, I actually I disagree with the resolution because I think it's

just empty virtue signaling. I think that Nancy Pelosi is bringing this resolution to the floor because she's concerned and worried about the image of her party, but she's not actually taking any real concrete action to eliminate anti Semitism from our party. You know, a good friend of mine at Josh Hammer wrote an article at The Daily Wire that discussed or the corpinization of the Democratic Party, and

I myself have wrote about this as well. This idea that you're not actually condemning anti semitism if you're not taking concrete action against those who perpetuate it within your party. So if Nancy Pelosi were really serious about addressing the anti Semitism, she would be removing elan Omar from the House Foreign Affairs Committee, and we don't see that happening.

You would strip her from her leadership position, and so far I haven't seen any indication that that's going to happen where speaking to Ariel Davidson of The Federalist, you can also follow her on Twitter, Ariel, do you think that there's a double stand not just because iah Omar is a Democrat, but because she is a female, and she is a Muslim, and she is an ethnic minority in this country as well. I definitely think there's a double standard, but I'm not sure where quite where it's

stemming from. What's been most concerning to me is that she's been treated sort of like a child. This woman is thirty seven years old. She is an adult. When she makes inappropriate anti Semitic comments, she should be treated as such. I think there's this weird, uh sort of attitude, especially within the media, to coddle her and to really have this sort of permissive, apologetic attitude, and I think

it's completely inappropriate. And I think it's really for shame in terms of how the Democrats have responded to it. I think Nancy Pelosi has said that she's when you know she's going to have conversations with elhant Omar, which she has done. But it's sort of the way you would talk about discussing a child when they misbehave right, you're not. It seems like the way she's been treated as if she's a child. Does anti Semitism have a particular perch within the left these days? That is that

is new and that is worsening in your view? Or are we just discovering you know, people think about the connections between say Lewis Farakon and prominent members of the Democratic Party. Are we just more aware of this now or is it getting worse? I think that is being brought to light a lot more. This has been something that's played the Democratic Party back to the sixties. It's just being brought into light much more now, especially with the Women's March. I think that really opens things up.

If you're a call back the two I think two leaders of the Women's March tide tie to Lewis Farrakon, one of them calling her him her in mentor you'll also see that they actually pushed out they wanted a Jewish flag removed from one of the marches events. So I do think that there's a sense in which anti Semitism is creeping to the forefront of the Democratic Party. But now with people like Ellen oh Mat being institutionalized, right, it's not just far less progressive groups that have anti

Semites within them. We're actually seeing real anti Semites being promoted to positions of power within Congress, and that to me is what's probably more disturbing, because I'm less worried about these fringe groups. You know, I do think they're a problem, but it's they're less of a problem than the institutional anti semitism that were Riel Davidson Davidson of The Federalist everybody check out our work at the Federalist dot com. Riel, thanks so much, thanks for having me.

How many of you feel that the time is right for a progressive and that's what would win Carol. We're ready for progressive candidates. They've won all over the country, and I think we need bold, strong leadership, and you'll find that in the progressives. I think that we had the standard bearer for the the kind of pragmatic centrist candidate in Hillary Clinton in twenty sixteen, and Donald Trump is now at the president. How many of you would like to see Joe Biden get in, show up hands?

What's happening right? This time is done? I'll be honest, Senator Biden really comes from kind of the good old boy politics of the past. I don't think Joe Biden represents that new thing that we need. We just we need a new economy, we need a new politics and meanings, someone different. I'm telling you, the Democrats have created a

progressive monster and they're just figuring this out now. They they have fed the most radical elements of their party two years of all this crazy propaganda in an effort to just just stoke the bases fury against Trump. They have propped up these ideas because they really don't have a Hillary Clinton esque platform to run against Trump, right they What are they going to say? What has Trump done that is so terrible? What? What are they? Here's what you really have to look at. What are the

Democrats better ideas? If they're just going to tinker with what Republicans already doing. I think a lot of people would rather have a businessman Trump than have some career politician who just wants maybe slightly higher taxes than a little bit more of the same. So the Democrats have gone far left as a means of trying to build up this opposition to Trump and to give themselves something to rally around other than the Muller pro which, as we know, is probably going to end here in a

few weeks. Thinking about all of this, and what I see happening is that on the left now or with the Democrats, they realize that from their left, the leader of the party isn't really Nancy Pelosi, it's Alexandriocazio Cortess. That's where people should be looking for where this is all heading. And that's why. Look, this is a little focus group we just played you from CNN where they say, you know, Biden's time has passed. But I don't think

that that little focused group is wrong. I don't think that the Democrats are going to put forward Joe Biden. First of all, Joe Biden, as I've been saying, is a mediocrity who has been riding on the Obama coattails ever since Obama left office and wrote on them for eight years while Obama was in office and was never able to get more than I think one percent of the vote when he was running for president before. And there's nothing inspiring about him or particularly interesting about him.

In fact, what's most interesting about Joe Biden is that if you look back at many of his quips to the media, the social justice woke left is not going to be in any mood whatsoever to try to run interference for this guy. The way they used to write it used to be, okay, well, he's going to be the elder statesman that's kind of there for window dressing in the background while Obama's doing his progressive, radical socialist

thing here as much as he can. And so they were willing to say, oh, when Biden makes what they would call a racist comment, oh that's just Joe being Joe. You know, you know what I'm talking about. Media would do this all the time, Oh, crazy uncle Joe. The Republicans said the same thing and be oh my gosh, he must resign, he should be fired, tard and feathered. But when a Democrat does it, it's you know, well, when when Joe Biden does it, at least they're willing

to try and prop him up. But the Democrats they have not yet. I think the Democrat establishment hasn't figured out that the usual Okay, you play to your bass,

but then you head to the center. I don't think there's gonna be any heading to the center with whoever comes out of this pack of Democrats, because to win enough of the basse that you beat the rest of this mountain of really B and C team candidates, you're gonna have to really stick out of the way to stick out is to be a hardcore on these left wing progressive policies. And I just don't think that that's going to leave room for anybody who's going to be

a kind of Clinton esque pseudo centrist. I mean, the Clintons aren't really centrist. I mean Hillary Clinton used to describe herself the nineties as a progressive believe it or not, or than maybe around two thousand, that's what she would have said. But she's not progressive compared to what you're talking about today. I mean, you know, the Democrats circa two thousand were a party of yes, you know, enlarging the welfare state and you know, not enforcing immigration laws

against illegals. And there's I mean now the Democrats are full on socialism, open borders, you know, Green New Deal, insanity, infanticide through law, I mean, willingness to have people aboard babies outside the womb, which is another way of saying kill them, murder them. I mean, this is what the Democratic Party has become. You know, thirty seven genders, whatever you say you are, you know, plural prone if you want to plural pronoun transgender kids. This is something that

should be encouraged and celebrated. I mean, the Democratic Party has really lost its mind, and the same way that they've lost their mind on issues of climate change, which we're going to get into in some depth in the next hour. I think you're really going to appreciate the guests that I'm going to bring on because he has a real background of this stuff and a very worthwhile point of view on what's going on with with climate

and climate change and the hysteria around it. But the Democratic Party is not the party of Joe Biden anymore. That's what I think is. You know, really, in my view, the recognition that they kind of refuse to have you know, yes, they're gonna try Kamala Harris and they're gonna try Corey Booker and a few other you know Democrats that are going to talk a big progressive game. But I don't think that that's going to work this time around. I mean,

I do think you're looking at it. I think you're looking at a Bernie Sanders esque Kennedy who wins us. And maybe it's betto that's right. I just like I just want to get rid of all of the fossil fuels. It's not for my wife's private jet, because like that's really important, because I just don't really know what to do without it. You know, they're gonna have somebody who's

far left. So, you know, Elizabeth Warren, for example, even though I think she's self humiliated herself beyond beyond the point of political redemption, I do believe that although she she was you know, she's still hanging in there. She had she talked to David Axel rod on on I guess his podcast or his show or whatever he's got, and she was asked about her her ancestry. And here's what she said. Play clip one. The question that I've

never understood is why did you check those boxes? Because obviously that's a very small part of you of your lineage, you know, one thirty second or something. So why why did you do it? Decades ago? I sometimes identified as Native American. It's it's there. It never had anything to do with any job that I ever got that's been

fully documented. I gotta tell you I spoke to a private citizen recently, so cannot you know, I cannot say more than that, But I spoke to a private citizen who studied at Harvard Law School and had Elizabeth Warren as a professor. And he told me straight up that Elizabeth Warren in class would refer to herself as a Native American bankruptcy expert from Oklahoma. So this idea that it was like a little a little, a little nothing burger. No, no, no,

this was a part of her whole mystique. This is how she was creating this persona of somebody who Harvard should be putting forward and should get these very difficult to come by and very prestigious, and I would add well paid positions. I mean at Harvard Law professors I think start off at a quarter of a million dollars a year, two hundred fifty grand. Let's start out at that, so they make a lot of money. Folks, So it wasn't a secret. She used it to advance herself, and

all this effort to try to cover that up. It's just pathetic from the media. My favorite was the Boston Globes super thorough investigation on this, where they asked the hiring committee at Harvard did it come up that she was Native American? And everybody said no, except for one guy who said, oh, yeah, that came up. And then they went back to him and asked him again, and sure enough he said, oh, I must have been mistaken because he didn't, you know, he didn't want the Boston

Globe to boil his rabbit, so to speak. You know, he didn't want the people to come after him make an example of him for his wrong think on Elizabeth Warren's past. But this is what the Democrats offer up, and these are the candidates they offer up, and then we're supposed to think that this is going to be better than Trump. Why would any of these people be better than Trump in what way? You know? Elizabeth Warren, who's a millionaire who talks endlessly about soaking the rich.

She's a millionaire who also is a bankruptcy expert that as I understand, it from again people that studied with her as a you know, when she was doing bankruptcy law, as teaching that her whole thing of bankruptcy is that it should really just be a socialized cost, meaning that the costs are passed on the society. People shouldn't have to suffer for the decisions that they make that lead to bankruptcy. Huh. That's going to be an interesting perspective

that's going to really help the lending industry, isn't it. Anyway. There's there's a lot more I could go on this one, but you get the basics here. The Democrats are the party of wackos now, and I think even some of them are just fine figuring that out. That old Trump wants to divide us up based on the color of our skin. This is a time, my friends, when fundamental rights, civic virtue, freedom of the press, the rule of law, truth,

facts and reason are under assault. And make no mistake, we are living through a full fledged crisis in our democracy. I realize that what's happening in this country is devastating. I mean President Trump has created such divisions, such darkness, such hate. It's so terrible. Oh my gosh, what are we gonna do. It's like dogs and cats living together, mats hysteria. Bernie is so upset. Trump creates darkness division. Hey, he doesn't replace the ice cubes in the ice cube train.

He sometimes we'll drink all the milk, but put the cotton back in the fridge. Who does that? What kind of savage puts the milk cotton empty back in the fridge. Sometimes he even watches an iPad on the Acela without headphones. I kid you not. I cannot make the sum. They really really hate Donald Trump. I mean they think that Donald Trump is like the anti Christ. Although a lot of these Democrats obviously don't believe in Christ, but that's

a conversation for another time. They really do believe that he is some kind of lord of darkness. I don't think it's possible for them to be such good actors. I'm not saying all of them. Some of them are actors, but some of them are faking it. That's why when they ask these questions about whether or not they're going to impeach Donald Trump, I just think this is funny, because of course they want to impeach Donald Trump, and it has nothing to do with what they find them

all their prober and these other investigations. They just want to impeach him, to impeach him, And the only thing that holds them back now is the pure political calculation over whether or not it would help them in terms of power, help them be in control the Democrats. There's no principle at stake here for them, There's nothing beyond just do the Democrats think that impeachment will help them win in twenty twenty. That's it. That's why I have to laugh when Katie terre Over at MSNBC is asking

Sheila Jackson Lee about this play Clift four. This probe is looking into obstruction of justice, public corruption, and abuse of power? Is this an impeachment hearing? In everything but name so? When Chairman Nadler said he is building a public record, you're basically saying that you're building a public record that could lead you to full on impeachment hearings. You say, some obstruction, if there is evidence of a crime that's been committed, do you think that that should

lead to a impeachment? Just want to delve in a little deeper and see where the line is when it comes to impeachment and whether it's only a political process. If he's found to be guilty of violating the Constitution, is it Congress's duty to impeach him or to try to impeach him? Just wondering if a lot of talk about impeachment there, keep keeps asking about impeachment, you know, it's just who it gets, gets the audience all excited. Will they impeach him? Please? Please? Oh please? That would

be so fantastic if they impeach him. I mean, I think it's clearly a bad a bad idea for them. I don't even mean it's a bad idea because it's unfair and it's wrong, which I obviously agree. I think it's a bad idea for them. But they have such a different view of what has happened in the the last two years than the non insane Democrat Party, right, I mean, or then people that are outside of the insane Democrat Party. Sounds like the insane clown posse when I say it

like that, the insane Democrat Party. But just here Trump, for example, give his view of what really has been going on in amer You know, on the one hand, you hear about how he's dividing hate, darkness, evil, all this really and based on what what do they point to a couple of a couple of tweets where he made fun of Jim Acosta where he called Richard Blumenthal denang dick. I mean, what is so terrible that Trump has done as president that? You know? Where's the war

that he started that he shouldn't have. Where is the gut wrenching policy decision that has had ramifications that will last for generations. Other presidents have done that and have messed up big time? What is it with Trump that hasn't happened. Economy's really strong. We're at in a period of relative piece. I'd like us to be at absolutely,

you know, at no more combat operations overseas. But we're a period of relative peace, no major combat operations going on right now overseas, and as I said, that should be even stronger than it is. But here's Trump's view, and I think it's important to hear it because you don't get it from the media. Play. Nine more people are working today in the United States than ever before in the history of We've slashed thirty thousand pages of

job killing regulations from the Federal Register. That's an all time record of the history of the United States. We passed the largest package of tax cuts and reforms in American history. We're renegotiating right now horrible trade deals that we're cracking down, and we are really doing the number, cracking down on countries that cheat, and standing up for the American worker for the first time in many, many decades.

That doesn't sound like destroying the country and being evil and all these other things that Democrats say that all sounds pretty good, and those are just he's reciting fact. He did slash regulations, he did pass a tax cut, jobs have been growing, He is renegotiating old and outdated trade deals. He is trying to help the American worker. I mean, these are all things that he's actively doing,

or things that are just a matter of fact. But yet the Democrats try to tell everybody that the country it's so terrible, it's so horrible, and all these It is like they're living in an alternative reality. And it's a little scary because when we talk about the climate change stuff coming up, you realize they are living in

an alternative reality. They've created it for themselves. If you're hiring or if you have a property that you need to lease out, if you're going to engage in a business transaction with another party, you need to make sure that you know who you're dealing with. That's where background investigations and vetting comes into play. And the best people in that field are my friends at Global Verification Network. They are the only dual certified and veteran owned company

in this space. So when you need background checks to be done efficiently, quickly, well and discreetly, call a Global Verification Network. They don't offshore their stuff. A lot of other companies out there will. They don't send stuff overseas for other people to do and then pretend that they've been doing the work in house. Their risk mitigation experts

across the country will handle your case work themselves. Give them a call eight seven seven six nine five one one seven nine again eight seven seven six nine five one one seven nine, or go to my GVN dot com Again, that's my GVN dot com. General Scaparatti and General Alliance. Do you agree with the Intelligence communities assessment

of the climate change threat? I do, and I believe that, as you noted, much of this will be drivers for potential conflict or at least very difficult situations that the nations have to deal with. A second, I would point you to the High North, and that's the increasing open opening of the Northern Sea Route and the challenges that presents from a security perspective. Yes, thank you, Thank you,

General Lyons. Do you also agree? Yeah, I agree. These are sources of conflict and we certainly have to be prepared to respond to them. Good Elizabeth Warren there asking a couple of generals if they agree about the threat of climate change to national security sounds kind of crazy to me. But I want to bring on a different voice here, one that can speak to this from a number of perspectives that I think you don't usually hear.

Doctor Caleb Rossiter is with us now. He is from the COO TO coalition and he's going to talk to us about what he thinks is really going on with all this climate change alarmism. Doctor Roster, thank you so much, buckets a treat to be with you today. Thank you for the opportunity to talk a little about climate science, which most people run shrieking from the second they hear

the words. So right now, obviously with a Green New Deal, a lot of people are paying attention to this But before we get into what your position on this is, what is your background on the issue of climate change? And who are the individuals you work with? You know, give us kind of a quick overview at the CO two coalition, which is obviously people are going to say a CO two coalition. I thought CO two was the enemy,

But go ahead. The founder of this coalition you'll hear about in the news right now, Professor Will Happer, a physics professor at Princeton, has left us because he's become President Trump's new National Security Advisor for Emerging Technologies. Will will Happer is the one who's trying to promote a looking a re look by the White House panel of scientists at these claims that carbon dioxide has created a national security climate catastrophe. So you can see where our

group is coming from. We're composed. Is he a scientist? I mean people are going to ask, you know how this always goes well? Does he have a science background? Are you kidding? Will Happer is one of America's most distinguished physicists. He ran the Science Office under President Bush of the first President Bush and the White House our President of currently replacing him. A. Richard Linson is an atmospheric physicist at MIT has won all the awards for

his work on atmospheric dynamics. These people are with us because they used to be with the un body that makes these wild claims. As AOC said that we're all going to be dead in twelve years. They left that body in disgust, in horror at the politicization of science. That's really why they're with us. They want to talk about the science, but the science has been badly, badly perverted. So tell me then about And I'm glad see this is this is necessarily because as you know, you hear

these things like no scientists. People will say, who are in the alarmist camp here or the catastrophist camp as I call it? No scientist claims that this isn't really a threat, no real And then I'll actually name Richard Lindson, a name that I know from his previous published work on this issue. And they say, well that doesn't count. It said on Mt climate cologence. That doesn't count. Okay,

well you know, now we're really getting somewhere. But now that we've established that the group that you were with has people with exactly the kind of scientific credentials that should be and must be taken seriously on this issue by the rest of the science and policy community. Tell

me what the CO two coalition is all about. These are scientists, satisticians like myself, agronomists, physicists, energy economists who want to have a rational public debate about the impact of industrial carbon dioxide the last one hundred and fifty years on the planet. And debate and switch is what I think is confusing your your listeners in general, all people in America in general buck because there is a

scientific consensus that carbon dioxide is a warming gas. There are physical reasons why it vibrates at the same speed as you know, heat leading the Earth. But that's it. That's the end of the consensus. How much the warming comes from carbon dioxide being increased by a third over the last one hundred and fifty years is impossible to assess. We have tried, and let's get to the real topic.

What effect does that have on catastrophic variables like floods and droughts and sea level and all that there's no consensus on that. This is the bait and switch. When Elizabeth Warren is talking to the intelligence community in the military about climate change. You notice they never said the

words fossil fuels, CO two or industrial emissions. Climate changes all the time, and it certainly can be a threat if there's a drought or a lot of storms, But there's no data to indicate that there's been an increase in those climate catastrophe variables what we call bad weather since nineteen hundred. Now, is there also an argument to be made that increased CO two has some good buy products, some good side effects. I've heard this before, but I

don't know if that's the case that you make. Uh huh. I'm holding in my hand a brand new white paper that probably America's fine as an atmospheric agronomus named Craig Idzo just put out for us. You know, it wasn't to get plant productivity. It wasn't to get fertilization of crops by industrial carb docs said that we entered the fossil fuel era. Obviously we did it to get cheap,

reliable power to power our health and wealth. But just as people pump CO two into greenhouses to make their plants grow there, it turns out this review of all the most relevant new field research that the thirty three percent increase in CO two since about nineteen hundred has boosted the productivity of the world's crops by between fifteen and thirty percent. So that has huge implications for places

where there's difficulty having their populations get fed. It's like an added bonus we get from the economic growth of fossil fuels. Is it's plant food. It's been good and it's going to stay good, and it's going to get better as CO two levels go up. So for the non science folks in the audience here, including myself. So there's more CO two in the air, which plants need, and plants then expel what oxygen through photosynthesis, right, and so essentially this is a good thing for plant life.

It's a fantastic thing for plant life for three quick reasons. I won't bore you with it. But not only do you get fifteen to thirty percent more plant growth so far and more to come, you need less water because when the plants have higher CO two levels, they don't perspire, shall we say so much? And you need less fertilizer. Again, this is why people use greenhouses and pay for carbon oxide to be put in their greenhouses. We essentially have

created that effect. So it's a nice little bonus, but that doesn't mean that the crucial issue still doesn't remain. If we're going to be using fossil fuels, do they create a climate catastrophe and the data say so are and I'm open to the data, I'm a climate statistician,

they haven't. And the reports that Miss Warren would be citing if you actually read the studies, which is what we do, that the exaggerations come out of show that there is no statistically significant increase in storm's rate of sea level rise droughts since nineteen hundred. And you know, it stands to reason the temperature has only gone up one degree worldwide on average since nineteen hundred. Maybe half

of that has been based on carbon dioxide. The other half, the scientific consensus degrees was natural because it happened before nineteen forty five when there wasn't much CO two being pumped. Even not necessarily, would you get a huge climate result from raising the temperature one degree. That's like moving maybe from DC down to Lynchburg. You know, yeah, Wellee, we're talking to doctor Caleb Ross or everybody, and doctor Rosa. I find this really interesting and all this makes perfect

sense to me. In fact, this is this is what I've been thinking all along, not as a statistician, just as somebody who pays attention and tries to read a lot.

But what I want to know is where is the disconnect then, Because as you no doubt come across this on a regular basis, if you tell people, you know, if you tell a lot of folks, I know there's a political divide here, But if you tell it, and for example, any of my media colleagues who aren't on the right, if you say that CO two emissions are not causing catastrophic warming, they launch into just this broadside about all scientists agree and nine scientists and the consensus

and the consensus and all this stuff. What do you say to all that the same thing I've been saying since I discovered this as a professor of climate statistics back in two thousand and four, buck with my students because I had to grade their papers graduate students and statistics. I've read probably every single study of the effects of carbon doc side on these climate variables to see whether the extreme weather and damaging events droughts, etc. Have increased,

and they have not. So what you're actually seeing is a consensusive scientists. The CO two is a warming gas exaggeration by politicians who say it could cause horrible things in the future, and you know what it could. We have to wait and see. But so far they've had thirty years of predictions of disaster in twelve years and it never happens. I am a Democrat, I will say it. It troubles me that my party has fallen into this camp of saying the science says, when that just that

just isn't true. Now the latest one is you notice is and this is good for your background, The intelligence community says, right, who wouldn't believe that intelligence community? Well, you know, as a Democrat, I can tell you I would just say weapons of mass destruction and Iraq. We know they can get it wrong sometimes, even though they're trying hard. Why the left just tries to throw out this expertise and say, all the scientists, all the intelligence

community agrees. No, no, no, they don't. Those clips you played at the top of the hour were not about fossil fueled climate change because we don't know how much there has been. They were about climate change in extreme weather. That one of the good things about CO two if it's providing more greening in the parts of Africa that do need more food. Perhaps that will help national security.

Is there anyone out there who will you know, who will debate, debate you or your group in public on this, because I just think it's so interesting and for the people listening it is such a breath of fresh air just to hear someone who who's talking with us and say, look,

the data doesn't support it. But we're always being bombarded with this message that if we don't you know, if we don't accept we're being told, which is that I played clips yesterday doc of people that we were saying they don't want to have kids because climate change is so catastrophic. I mean, this has really turned into a mass hysteria topic. You've got people, whether it was population growth or carbon dioxide, You've got people who are always

worried about the future. I can't help them when we're living at the highest life expectancy ever in humanity, the best health, the best education, people's lives are the best and large part because of the miracle of fossil fueled power that we got in the twentieth century. So if they're not having kids now, they certainly should never have had them before. Look, I've been dealing this for fifteen years,

and I don't know quite where it came from. This is the one topic that the left refuses to debate. If I show up somewhere, Miss Ocasio Cortez sends a letter to the sponsors saying, this climate denier should not be allowed to appear, and you should cut off funding for this for this conference. And so whenever I speak now,

I invite her. I sent her office a standing invitation, and I sent a standing invitation to the Union of Concerned Scientists and the Green Peace and the Environmental Defense Fund. If you're so sure of your case, come and debate it with me. So when I spoke last week at the SEATPAC conference, I told the story of how when I was an anti ar activist back in the nineteen sixties, we would always put a sign out on the seat an empty seat on the stage saying reserve for the

State Department. So if they wanted to come and argue us at the Vietnam teaching, we wanted to have the debate because we thought we would win the debate. So mine now says I put it on the seat every time I speak is reserved for Rep. Occasio Cortez, Green Peace, and any alarmist in the building. Well, Doc, I hope that I hope that someone takes you up on it,

because people need to hear the truth. Because what's being said right now by the entirety of the Democratic Party, the liberal media, intelligent, even some quarters of the top military brass. Now it's just crazy, man, It's just nuts, and people need to get a grip. But that's not my scientific analysis. That's just the way I see things.

And we got to doctor Caleb Ross. Come. They're not gonna no, I know they're gonna hide because they're gonna get crushed on the facts, doctor Caleb Rosit or everybody the C two Coalition, Where can people go to read your research, see more what you're up to. We have a website C two Coalition, clips of media appearances like this one here. We try to put everything up. But we have forty five members who are far better scientists

on this than I am. I'm the climate statistician. We've got people like doctor Lindzen and doctor Hids who like to go out and speak and talk about this. They're glad to debate. But since we rarely get to debate. They love to come and speak with people about it. So please check us out and invite us to come talk to someone in your community. All right, thank you so much, Doc. We appreciate it. Thank you very much.

All right, team, we'll be right back, my friends. I am somebody who believes in precious metals as part of a well to versified portfolio. So if you're somebody that, like I do, sees the systemic risk in our financial system, you know, I know Trump's done a great job at the economy. We got twenty two trillion dollars in debt. These bills are going to come do at some point, so it's important that you have a hedge against risk.

And that's what precious metals can do for you. And it's a great thing to have, specifically in a precious metals IRA. My friends at Noble Goold can see if you qualify and they will do all the heavy lifting for you. Could make you thousands, could cost you enucting. Give Noble Goold a call at eight seven seven six four six five three four seven, or text my name Buck to five eleven five eleven and receive their free Investors Guide plus for all qualified iras about twenty thousand dollars.

Individual results may vary invest wisely. Standard text rates may apply. About climate change, of course, and saying that we have to eliminate fossil fuels, all fossil fuels, coal, oil, and natural gas in ten years. This would be basically a

suicide pact. Over eighty percent of the US and the world's energy comes from fossil fuels, and the only reason for banning them is the so called climate apocalypse or climate catastrophe. I see AOC recruiting young teachers and whole classes of young children against the apocalypse. They're saying, they're telling these children that there's going to be an apocalypse in ten years if they don't save the climate. I

think this is child abuse myself. The whole climate change movement has now reverted to using kids as a front for not only climate change and ending the use of fossil fuels, but the whole bolowax about socialism. I think that's really what they're trying to sell. So that was Patrick Moore, who was formerly the president of green Peace Canada, talking about o'cazio Quartez and climate change. I agree with everything that guy just said. I just saw this saw

this clip today. Everything he says there, that they're mobilizing kids, that it's child abuse, that this whole apocalyptic nonsense is just insane. That AOC has no idea. You know how completely bizarrely off she is with all this stuff because she doesn't understand it. She just knows it's trying to sell socialism. What was I telling your elder in the week, This guy, Patrick Moore gets it. The Green New Deal

is really just the Red New America. They're just trying to get you to a socialist level of control and a socialist economy because the government will have the means of the say so over everything, over all decisions. Because of how it affects the climate. Activity, human activity affects the climate. So if you need to monitor and manage human activity so that it does not have a deleterious effect on the climate, what can you not decide You're going to shut down you know what is too much?

And the answer is they don't have an answer. But I thought that guy was this guy from Canada. Man, he was spot on and I really enjoyed doctor doctor Roster there and that was really interesting too. I mean, you know, this is folks. Consensus is not science. Science is science. Proving and reproving, testing and re testing, thesis, the scientific method, all of it. Right, They're supposed to be a process here, share the results, share the data.

Can other people independently recreate the same experiment and get the same data? Do the models actually work? Are people checking to see if these climate models have been correct well, as we know they do, and they find out that they're wrong, and then they just say, well, we have a new model, now this one will work. This is a delusion for people who are commies and aren't willing to say it. And it's also for people that are looking for meeting in their lives. And I think this

is very sad. But this idea that you are personally in the process of saving the planet if you sign on for this. This is where the religious component of it comes from, and this is why it is treated on the left as a religious belief. And it's impervious. Two facts they say there are no scientists, and then I provide them with scientists who disagree, and then they shout them down and won't talk to them, won't debate them. Because here's the thing. The climate alarmists are wrong, and

you and I know they're wrong. We are expanding to make films that better reflect the people that buy movie tickets, but they are not allowed enough chances to read public discourse on these films by the people that these films were made for. I do not need a forty year old by Due to tell me what didn't work for him about a wrinkle in time. It wasn't made for him. I want to know what that film meant to women of color, to by racial women, to teen women of color,

two teens that are by racial. Bree Larson, star of the Captain Marvel movie, doesn't want to hear from white dudes about why her movie didn't work. You know, this is this is something that has been coming for a while, and I guess it's really not in any way surprising then, But now now we have seen social justice the social justice left becomes so entrenched in Hollywood that now they'll actually make bad movies with bad left wing themes and

then try to blame people for it. Right. It used to be that they would make entertaining films, but they would always skew a little bit left right. The old Hollywood model was, you know, we're going to make a movie, but the theme is going to be left wing, or there's going to be some left wing propaganda, you know, put into it. But at least it's going to be entertaining, so if you'll sit through it, you'll have an enjoyable experience,

even if you don't like the politics. Now they're just willing to make crappy movies that, of course are all about social justice and even the casting of it and all the rest of it. And if we don't like them, if the marketplace speaks and says boo, then we're the problem. Brandon, do you know, isn't Captain Marvel, first of all, supposed to be a dude? Or am I missing something? I think it is a female character. I know comics, but I just never got into Captain Marville. I guess is

that different than Captain America? Then I don't even guess two different? Right? No? I mean I guess, but it so it's Captain Marvel, the female Captain America. Is that what's supposed to happen? Because I thought that was wonder Woman. But you know, I don't know what I'm talking about. Yes, he's definitely a female. I know that I was definitely a female. All right, it's they who By the way, who is Breed Larson? And when did she become famous?

This is the first I've ever seen this person's name. Yeah, yeah, your guess is as good as mine. Everyone's like Bree Larson had this to say, like, so fuck, we're too white too. It's we're in the second thing. I know. But see, Mike, I fell right into the trap. I'm a white dude. I'm not allowed to have an opinion on this movie. Even superhero movies now have to be woke. This is why we're told that, you know, the Ghostbusters All female remake wasn't one of the worst movies ever made.

It's just because the patriarchy man or something like that. It's never that the left is infusing its politics into these projects in such a way that normal people just don't want to see them, and that they're not producing a good product because they're focused on the wrong thing. Hollywood should be entertaining us that is goal number one. You do not sit down to watch a Hollywood superhero

movie to learn for sure. Maybe for some people they find it inspirational, though you know, I don't know how inspired most of us generally get from seeing someone who's you know, bitten by a radioactive spider and get superpowers. Yeah, I'd be inspired if I had superpowers too. But you just can't get away from this stuff though. There's no escape now. And this is why they're increasingly telling us

that we have to like movies that stink. And oh, by the way, now that there is a large or a broad consensus that some of these movies that have these left wing themes, you know, if a female is in the lead of a movie these days, we all have to pretend like it's a good movie. And you know, this is why, look, wonder Woman, it's just okay. I mean, it's pretty decent. It's not a bad movie, but it's not an amazing movie. It's not something that you're going

to remember or that's time listening. It's okay, superhero movie. Don't even get me started on Black Panther. It's just not a good movie. In fact, in some parts the movie is just stupid. It's not a good movie, but we have to like it because African American or I'm sorry, pardon me, African superhero in the lead. So there is a social justice tie into, you know, the non white

pay triarchy being more represented in cinema. And to this, I always want to say, you know, American audiences have been cheering for African American leads in in top movies for you know, for decades and decades, Right, Will Smith, Denzel Washington. These are some of the biggest superheroes. I'm sorry, big biggest actors. Superheroes are something in the world. So why then do we have to, Oh, you have to like Black Panther because it's a movie with an African

superhero the lead. No, I don't have to like the movie. I don't understand this, this kind of social blackmail that occurs here where if you don't like Captain Marvel, you don't like the Ghostbusters movies, you're the problem. Oh, but it's Mike pointed out to me, that's what Bree Larson here is saying. You're a white male, so no one cares what you think. I think we get a vote on culture. I think we get a vote on mass media. I think we're allowed to at least express our opinions

because you know, the First Amendment and stuff. Ain't no party like a Team Buck party because Team Buck party don't stop. Yeah, we got Buck turned up to eleven. It's time for roll call. If you want to see the CEPAC debate that I had on Syria with a very strongly pro intervention fellow from the American Enterprise Institute. It is now posted on Facebook. I think it's pretty quick too. It's about seventeen minutes I think of actual debate.

So I'm not asking you to take up your whole afternoon with it, but I think you will enjoy it. I think you'll find it worth your time, to be sure. So it is up and you can check it out. The link is on Facebook dot com slash buck Sexton. Now we can get to your thoughts, your words, enough of mine, Joe, Oh, of course, Facebook dot com slash Buck Sexton's where you want to go for all this stuff. Joe writes, I have to echo your sentiments on Nirvana not a bad band and Dave Grohl for the win,

but highly overrated. But what I do know is I thought it was Hey, Wayne, two Shields high Oss Joe. Is it not? Hey? Wayne? Now we have somebody who's gonna be able to answer this. Brandon. Excuse me, Brandon, Hello Brendan DJ Brandon, Hey Wayne, I'm an you know what I'm talking about? It? Are you saying? Hey Wayne? Isn't that? What? What is he saying in the lyrics the Lvana saw It's not Wayne. It's not an o to uh mister Newton or anything like that. What's he saying?

What is that? That's uh, that's Nirvana? But no, no, I'm trying to think of the name of the song a hart J Box that song. Maybe. Yeah, I think it's way. It's just way hey, Way, Really, I'll get up right now. Yeah, thank you. You're rock EJ. I expect you to have this stuff. And the good news is it's Rose. If it were Guns and Roses lyric brand and you would have to give yourself a code red. I don't know what else it's tall be in trouble, yeah, okay, but it's it's Nirvana, and we all know Nirvana. I

see here's here's a perfect example. Guns and Roses better band than Nirvana, better band than Nirvana. It's wait by the way it's hey wait Ah, I got a new complaint because that rhymes ah wait, I got it. It wasn't Wayne, Okay, I thought it was. I got Wayne wait mixed up. But that's not as bad as all right, So I made a fool of myself on Natural Radio

n NBD. No big deal, Hey Wayne, I like the way I say it anyway, all right, So I don't by the way, Dave Grol, Yeah, I really do, like, I really do like food fighters, And I always remember that there was a I saw this clip a long time ago. I don't know Brandon, you saw this too, But Dave girl was doing a show I forget where it was, and people decided to go from like jumping around in a mosh pit to one guy started or just started just punching people in the face, like he

just lost it in the mosh pit. And he stopped the show and called security and was like, people who here at a party and have fun, nothing happens until you get the hell out of here. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I thought that was pretty I thought that was pretty cool. Back in the day, something like that happened. Instead, Axel Rose dove into the crowd and punched the guy, so whoa a couple of approaches to it. Axel Rose superhero who knew I did not know that. Also, I think

the Stained lead lead singer. I could be wrong, but he saw some guys who were getting gropy with like a very young girl, and he laid into them and called security. And if I think it was the Stained lead singer. But I always like it when you know people, Oh, you got to regulate your own party. You know, you should get him, you should get him on the show. Though. Aaron lewis very pro America and yeah, no, I like his music. Yeah, I like his music, all right, Yeah,

and he likes America, so we like him here. All right, let's get let's get back into roll Call. Sorry, a little bit of a digression there, Jeff Rights, Hey Buck, do you think this whole birth strike thing is actually healthy for our population? Darwinism can help weed out the wacky lefties? Un, Jeff, I mean, I see where your head's app But I wish people weren't so unbelievably terrified about all this stuff. I mean, it's just bad. It's

obviously not just some political fad. There are people who really believe this stuff now, And I find that very disconcerting, and I think that anybody should find it very disconcerting that there are people that think that this is, you know, a good idea to not have children going forward. Strikes me as as truly wacko. Next up here, Randy writes, I had to beat them to death with their own

shoes Rhodi from Wayne's World. Correct, Randy, it was the Rhodie from Wayne's World two who was the only good thing in Waynes World two. The rest of Waynes World too, is pretty terrible, but the English roadie guy is memorable and does a good job. Melissa, right, you were so on point with Jesse Smollett's story. Would you speak about the documentary that came out about MJ. I'm wondering about your take on it. Well, Melissa, thank you, and I

appreciate that people listen to this show. No that I was doing the Jesse Smollett is a liar update way in advance of most of the rest of the media, almost all of the media, really, because I don't care about the social justice rhetoric of the left and the way that they try to make victims of people who aren't even victims. I like the truth so that was

how I was able to see through that one. As for the Michael Jackson documentary that just aired on HBO, I was only able to watch because I had to write a piece Sunday night for The Hill, which you should all check out, which is the Democrats have switched from collision to obstruction on the Hill dot Com. But I was able to watch about fifteen or twenty minutes of it. I mean, I get the basics of it.

I've been told by trusted sources that I should watch the whole thing, but I think, yeah, I think Michael Jackson's a predator or was. I mean, I don't understand why people are so resistant to the mountain of facts in this case. And even if you want to say that he did not, you know, if people want to take this, he didn't engage in criminal conduct. What he did was bizarre and completely unacceptable that everyone knows he did. An adult male should never be sleeping in a bed

with a seven or eight year old boy. That's not you know, just just period, just period, that's not normal. So yeah, anyway, it strikes me as very as very strange, but you know, it is what it is. You know, I'm you know. It's one of these things too, where people get strangely defensive about it, and I don't you know. Look, I understand people love Michael Jackson's music, and he was. He was incredibly talented, There's no question about that. But

we can't defy reality because we like somebody's music. Sean Wright, hey Buck, referring to your role call for March fourth, I agree that Nirvana was overrated. As I reflect upon my experience with nineties music, I'm very grateful that classic rock gained much popularity with the advent of all encompassing rock radio stations. If not for the Eagles and similar bands, I likely would have found music to be entirely worthless.

I still to this day, but for the classic rock genre over any other, and doubt it will ever be eclipsed in my lifetime. Shield Tie Sean oss Well, Sean, very eloquent in your discussion of music Taster. I appreciate it and thank you for writing in. Oh on the MJ documentary, I need to finish it. I have not finished it, and I will finish it, and when I do, I will have more for you on that. All right, WHOA, we got a long one here, Oh, I gotta skip

it because it's too long. Keith writes, what movie make America grid? Again, possibly predating Maga. Keith, I've no idea what you're talking about, I'm sorry to say, Brendan, Are you available to chat? Do you think the president messed up by not building the border wall? Would AOC not vote for green tech wall? Well, Brendon, I'm available to read your message on a couple of or you on one hundred and thirty or so radio stations. But so that's kind of like chatting. And do I think AOC

would not vote for green tech wall? I don't really know what you're asking me. Would she vote for solar panels on a wall? Maybe, but she wouldn't vote for the wall? Van? Right? Sorry? Do you not suppose that pistachio ice cream contains nuts? Seeing that a pistachio is a nut sounds like a double standard to me. Not not wink wink. However, I'm right there with you on Brownie's Sons nuts, brother, Van, pistachio is a nut. You

are correct. However, in my experience, pistachio flavored ice cream is just that it is flavored with the nut flavor. It is not really the nuts that are giving it. Well, it is not whole nuts that are giving it flavor. I sound nuts right now. This isn't even making any sense. But I still think pistachio is the king of all ice cream flavors. So there, how about them pistachios? John? Another ice cream? The best ice cream flavor is Talenti's

Old World Eggnog mind blowing shield sigh, John, John. I will tell you that I am a major Talenti ice cream fan. In fact, I have to kind of keep tabs on whether I'm keeping into the house or not because I will rip through that stuff. And men, that is a sugar bomb and a half. But it is so good. The salted caramel ice cream flavor that has the chunks of a salted caramel is incredible, one of my one of my favorite favorite things. Also, the pistachio

is very very good. We should get I wish I could get Talentia as a sponsor, but you know, probably it's owned by a big corporation who knows Russell rights Buck. I'm a fairly new listener to your show. I take a lot of stock in what you say about but I'm not very smart about a lot of political issues. One thing that resonates in the back of my mind is when you talk about the left trying to take over the presidency or throw Trump out without justification. Can
