The de Blasio Double Standard

The Buck Sexton Show begins from the CIA analyst. He's a great guy. No, welcome, my friends to the Bucks Exton Show. Thank you very much for being here, and honor as always. Oh my, We've got so much to get to today, and I know it's Friday, so it feels like that show flies by. We'll get to your voicemails later on. We'll have producer Mark joining in on some of that fun. We've got a special guest for you later on. Oh my gosh, so much coming up. But I want to get right to what you're seeing.

If you were to say, do what I did this morning, I turned on CNN, and I know, I know you're thinking, Buck, why you why you do this to yourself? Why do you abuse your eyes and turn your brain into mush first thing in the morning. Well, I do it so that I can bring you the most up to date and the most accurate assessment of what the LIB journals

are up to. And certainly you can tell right now we're back to all out COVID panic all across the country that if you are listening to the national news media, you're supposed to just think, all right, let's just all lock down again, let's just do this again, let's go

for it. And that for some of us, I can understand if you're particularly frightened and you're at high risk, as we've talked about so many times, if you want to take precautions because things are bad in your area, if you're a healthcare worker and you're worried about hospital capacity, that's one thing. But now we're seeing the argument being

made that has to be national. You see, this is what it's not just Oh, things are going badly in Texas with COVID, or in Florida and they're setting records. It's well, because it's going badly there, let's have everywhere else locked down again, even in New York, where there were nine people who died from COVID nineteen yesterday. In the whole state, very very few new cases, Massachusetts very few,

New Jersey very few. No one really knows exactly what's happening here, all right, all the people that are telling you, oh, it's because we didn't do what the people told us. It's all our fault. No, that's not true, all right. California has been on super lockdown, very strict for months

and months, and California's having spikes in cases too. It seems that one possible interpretation of these events is that there is an inevitable spread that happens once this gets into a community, and unfortunately, it will burn through the community at some level, and then it will move past it. So here in New York, because there were so many infections, we may in fact be less susceptible, hopefully to a repeat of such wide scale, broad spectrum and incredibly lethal infection.

But that same phenomenon, that same wave seems to be hitting other places across the country now. It's clearly a big issue in Arizona, in Texas and Georgia and Florida. Months after the reopen. So we also don't really have a lot of data, a lot of answers to this, and I told you I would revisit this as as new information came out. But remember we were told that certain states needed to be an absolute lockdown when other

states weren't having a lot of cases. And now that those states have already gone through the lockdowns, states that didn't are now the justification to lockdown again for everyone else. Right, So this is why we want national mask mandates national this national no, absolutely not. This, as we know, is a combination of bad policy, very politically obvious to me, at least politically minded decisions with the election coming up. The President understands this, he told me in the Oval office.

I said it was the last thing we talked about before I left us at President Trump. Mister President, please no second lockdown. Push, don't freeze everything again and shut down everything when we can't do that. And I know that this ates have a large part of the decision making here, but the federal government was really pushing states as well and using its powers for a lockdown. The

President said he wouldn't do it. Here we are with the latest from him on why even though yes there are spikes and cases, and yes now it is additional hospitalizations, and the death rate has gone up substantially in a few of these states. It is still not the right move to lockdown the country again. Still it is still not the right move. Play clip seventeen. A policy of never ending lockdowns month after month would ultimately do more harm than good to public health and so bad for

our children. As we saved millions of lives, now it's time to get back to work. A lot of people were against those bands, and now they admit. Most of those same people admit that band was the greatest thing saved so many lives. Crucially, we realize that the health of a nation's economy is fundamental to the health of his people. In the last two months, we have begun the fastest economic comeback in history. I hope the president sticks to it on this, but it's also not entirely

up to him. Democrat governors will be viewed as heroes by their own party. I mean, everyone knows what the game is here, right. Even if you don't have a lot of cases, you don't have a lot of deaths from COVID nineteen in your state. In a lockdown for a month or two, just just make sure that it's impossible to get any real momentum before the November election. That that's what is motivating a lot of the decision

making right now. I think it's quite clear there's also no honest discussion about, well, what are the new metrics. Then if we're being told that this was about hospital capacity, we can handle that. But no, now it's back to crush the virus. There's this false narrative you're hearing of some places crushed the virus. We didn't. America has been bad at this, other places have been great. As if we can't see the numbers per capita of countries around

the world. Western European nations very similar to ours in a lot of regards, have had a much worse response to this. The only exception would be Germany's about the same as ours. Other Western European countries, large ones Italy, the UK had far worse spread and lethality from this. And somehow there's also a theory out there now that Democrat governors in places like New York and New Jersey Cuomo and Murphy respectively did a great job with this,

when even with the spikes in Texas and Florida. Texas and Florida have been far better so far in there, it's not even close in their response to this. So narrative is overtaking reality and facts. That much is for sure. But you would also think that if you know, as I was watching CNA, just they've got the ticker of number of cases, number of people dying, and they just have the only purpose that they'll go through all day

long is just look at how bad things are. Look at how bad things are, look at how terrible things are. Blamed Donald Trump. Blame Donald Trump. That's what you are getting a dose of all day long. That's what they're talking about. And wear a mask. Wear a mask. Even though if you want, you can go and do a quick search and maybe I should start posting some of

these on Facebook or something. You can see that the most detailed and recent studies you can find on cloth masks to prevent the spread of influenza range from we can't prove any benefit to it might actually even be worse to wear a cloth masks. There are people experts who will say no, no no, no, wear a mask, wear a mask, But when you actually look at the scientific studies that have been done on this where they try to prove what the theory. Remember the theories over one

hundred years old, but no one really challenges it. It makes people feel better. I think it's largely a psychological thing. Now people think, oh, masks healthy or safer. They want to believe that. But and again, if you want to wear a masks, go ahead. I don't have a problem with anyone where and this I could be wrong. Maybe it's you know, great, maybe it reduces virus transmission by fifty percent. Why no study can show that. I'm curious, but I have a problem with the mandates that are

going on. So you have that push to just make America miserable again, which is what the Democrats are doing. Make sure that this is this looks like it's ineptitude from the federal government. Meanwhile, what are we supposed to do? We all agreed it seemed as a society that the lockdown has to be limited duration, and then we've got to just go and learn to manage this and live with it. And now we're forgetting that again. It's like we never had that conversation as a country a few

months ago, and everyone's panicking and freaking out. But then you have Democrats who show you also that they're entirely un serious about doing anything worthwhile while this is happening. Build a Blasio, former Democrat presidential candidate. I don't think he could even get one percent of the vote, but he runs America's largest city, which, unfortunately, I am stuck in during this whole nightmare of the pandemic. And you're seeing this another city, these other states to Texas. You

guys have a lockdown now, right. I know this was mostly a New York problem, and everyone said, oh, the subway, the subway. No, it looks like it's a lot more than just the subway that can lead to super spread of this, unfortunately. But I mean that was just a good guess. You know that everybody's sort of had because that's where you have a huge concentration of people every day.

But really, I think the main areas, the worst thing you can do is be indoors for a long period of time with people, So family spread is a huge concern. But you have Bill de Blasio taking this moment when he is supposed to be a leader on the issue of public health. Right, He's got eight million people think about eight million people who this complete and income poop gets to just make these determinations like like he's Caesar or something. This is how it shall be by decree

of de Blasio. You know what, even yesterday spend the day painting a mural of Black Lives Matter. And to say it's a mural, I mean it's really just writing in letters. I mean to call it a mural makes it sound like it's an work of art. No, they're painting a sign on the street on Fifth Avenue in New York City, right outside of Trump Tower. Play clip two Black Lives Matter. That's Black Lives Matter came the United States America. So Donald Trump does not understand, let's

paint it right in front of it building. Not only is this abject buffoon doing this while Democrat talking points across the country or that Trump has mishandled coronavirus and we all need to be terrified again. Even though member states were allowed to open open, reopen at their pace, and they're not reopened, can we stop with this? They have not. We still have restrictions. You still can't go to the gym, you still can't go to you know,

sports games and stuff. I mean we're living at We're continuing to get dragged through these restrictions and talk about it like, oh, well, we went back to normal, and this is what happens. No, we we started to go a little bit back to normal. So what's the answer. Never go back to normal? Hide and wait for a vaccine. We've always been told that's not the strategy. And then the second that things get scary, they say hide and wait for a vaccine, we go this is the cycle.

Oh no, we can't do that. We recognize how stupid that is as a policy. Oh, COVID cases are spiking in a place. Everybody hide, We gotta wait for a vaccine. It's not hide for a week or a day's let's let's give us another couple of months. De Blasio has canceled events in New York City, has canceled them through September. Okay, he will not allow street fairs, any large outdoor these

are outdoor activities. Now, those of us who are here, and you know, you know that much of the media narrative is determined in New York and then then it's blasted out through the rest of the country because this is the main place where the journos live mostly in Brooklyn, but also on the Upper West Side and a couple of other places in the city where the CNN anchors

and the HuffPo bloggers all congregate. But de Blasio has canceled large outdoor events, and in what is really a perfect, a perfect example of the double standards that we're supposed to choke down during this COVID pandemic, he was asked, what about the big protests that are going on? I mean, those are huge protests that are happening, and you know, there was there was a piece yesterday. I mean, you got you gotta just it's unbelievable. There was a piece

yesterday that said, I'm trying to find it exactly. Oh yeah, protests may have spread coronavirus. Some cities admit this was on Yahoo News. Responded, yeah, but they wore masks. They'd wear masks still, sort of, what does the Blasi to say about big protests. He's banning you in New York from doing stuff so outside, what about the big protests? Here's what he says, play five outdoor concerts and it

means things like parades. You know, things here in the city can mean not just thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of people. It's just not time for that. Now, what about protests? If people want to march down Fifth Avenue, are there gonna be allowed to do so? Look, wealth, this is always an area of real sensitivity. If you're just talking about health, we would always say, hey, folks,

you know, stay home if you can. But we understand at this moment in history, people are talking about the need for historic changes. I mean today in New York City, you know, recognizing the power and the meaning of the message Black Lives Matter, which we did in front of Trump Tower today. This is an historic moment of change. We have to respect that, but also say to people the kinds of gatherings were used to the parades, the fairs, we just can't have that while we're focusing on health

right now. So you you heard him say there's a double standard here. This is political bias through the law. I don't understand how this can't be illegal. You have somebody this is viewpoint discrimination with state resources. It's exactly what this is. And they through the historic moment Black Lives Matter has already gone through this whole thing before you know what, got better for people. You know what

improved by be as a result of this movement? Nothing? Nothing, Oh but it's a historic moment now, yeah, sure it is. In six months, we'll look back and be like, what were they even talking about, toppling statues, running around the street, looting, lighting stores on fire, yelling at cops, defund police. Is this is wrong? Oh, it's all about saving lives, It's all about dealing with COVID until there's protests, and then all of a sudden, Yeah, these protests are worth people

dying for. Is that what they're telling us dying from COVID? It's protests aren't going to do anything worth anybody dying for. I can assure you of that. You're in the freedom hunt. This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast. In case it's not bad enough that there's a Deblasio double standard, what about the violence in the city that has gotten so much worse. Forty percent or so up for shootings and homicides, and no one can deny the city's gotten more violent.

It's much worse than it was. And he's out there with people painting a side in the middle of the street. Yeah, that's how we're going to conquer racism, and they did it outside of Trump Tower. I mean, this is all very obvious. It's just political, it's just nonsense. But here's what he says about the violence that's going on in communities.

Play clip ten. Well, we're going to do immediately. The NYPB is shifting deployments, moving officers where the need is greatest, working with communities, and this is always the crucial part. You can't just do it with police. Unique community leaders, clergy,

community organizations to come together. We are having a particular issue in Harlem, and we've gathered community leaders from all over Harlem who, in common cause this week are going to be out there with the police shoulder to shoulders, saying we're not going to allow this violence in our community. The second piece is to get our court system up and running. It's been at a very low speed. The criminal justice system in the state is not fully functioning,

and that's creating a lot of problems. Even when police arrest someone, the consequences aren't there. So we've got to get that back up and running. And that's absolutely been a victim of the coronavirus that we were missing. One of the most important pieces of the equation. Let me tell you what this moron is not telling you. They got rid of cash bail in New York, so a bail reform quote, bail reform means that people that can make crimes get out basically right away. So it's not

about the court system not functioning it. They change the court system like idiots, so that now it can't actually do very much. And also undermining all of your cops. You can have some event where you say you like your cops. Guess what police force does not feel supported in this city and a lot of other cities. Thanks for listening to The bus Essen Show podcasts. Remember to subscribe on Apple podcasts, the iHeartRadio app, or wherever you

get your podcasts. Well, what's this really all about? Why do we have murals being painted in and call it a mural? I think is to aggrandize what's going on? Why do we have signs, political slogans painted at public expense in New York and San Francisco, in Washington, DC? What's going on with all that? As we know, they'll say that this is about coming to terms with our

past or confronting historical wrongs. But what it's really about is Donald Trump and how much the Democrats hate him, and how much they are seeking not only to defeat him in the fall, but to drag, immiserate, and humiliate all of his supporters as much as they possibly can in the process. This was yesterday. I remember, We've got a city with spikes of violence and shootings, and nationwide, you have real concerns over this continuation of the spread

of COVID nineteen of coronavirus, and they're out there. Deblasio's out there with Al Sharpton. Al Sharpton's there. I don't think it's surprised to anybody painting this mirror outside of Trump's house, right, because this is really all about Trump for them. And you could say, wait, isn't that absurd? Is yes, exactly, It's deranged, it's crazy. It doesn't make sense to a normal person. But Deblasio made it personal yesterday, made it clear what's really going on here? Playclip three wolf.

It was that's an important message. The people of this city believe black lives matter, and we wanted to send that message to our whole city, but to our whole nation. And in fact, here was an opportunity for the president United States to show respect for the fact that that's what we value here. And what did he do? He literally tweeted that writing Black Lives Matter on Fifth Avenue would quote unquote denigrate the luxury of that avenue. That

is pure racism. That is acting like an acknowledgement of the value of black people is somehow belittling, when in fact, what we're trying to do is lift up people who have built this city and built America and haven't been given their respect. And it can't just be words, well if it has to be actions. So we're taking resources from our police department and putting it into youth programs. Yeah,

youth programs. That's going to stop people from murdering individuals in broad daylight, including when they're walking with their six year old daughter, which happened here in New York recently. That's that's really going to stop it. Look, this is just about egos between people in positions of leadership, right, Deblasio.

This guy's an egomaniac. It's amazing. He's not charming. I've never met a human being who is even vaguely intelligent who likes Bill Deblasio, never including Democrats, and he has this feud with Trump. Ultimately He also is bitter because he believes that a country that would elevate Donald Trump. And this is true of many Democrats. Wherever you are across the country right now, your Democrat mayor, or governor, or member of Congress, whatever, trust me, they're all angry

at this country. They think that America needs to be punished for electing Donald Trump, and they're willing to help make that punishment happen. They're willing to do whatever it is they can, whatever they have to. And in case you were wondering, to what extent is Deblasi are willing to go in order to make the case about He says Trump is being racist and all this stuff. This is about liberation. The mayor of New York said, there's

liberating the street. It's amazing play four. We need to take this transcendent moment and get the most out of it. But the President, rather than having a chance to acknowledge America's original sin, he literally made it worse by suggesting that honoring black people on Fifth Avenue, which some I'll make it less valuable or luxurious. I've got to tell you people are outraged by that. But more importantly, they're speaking out and folks today felt jubilant and triumphant. We

were not denigrating Fifth Avenue. We were liberating Fifth Avenue by putting those crucial words right there in front of President Trump's building. The crucial words that are the name of a Marxist movement that seeks to destroy the nuclear family and create socialism in America, among many, many, many other policy issues that it openly takes. But see, he's a perfect example Deblasio is doing. He is putting on a clinic of what the real purpose of the Black

Lives Matter movement is. They call it black Lives Matter so that anyone who criticizes it, it's like they're saying they don't care about black lives. It's such a dishonest orical trick. It's a trap. So they get to promote the movement and then we all say, well, hold on a second, but I disagree with the movement. You disagree with Black Lives Matter? Are you saying that those lives don't matter? Of course, no one saying that. Morons, right, total morons do this, But it works. It works somehow.

We live in a country where everyone's constantly in fear of being called racist, and the left has created an atmosphere where they say that everything is basically racist all the time. We're all racist, even though being called a racist will ruin you and destroy you. Right, there's racism everywhere. There's just constant racism. And yet that's something that gives

anyone who makes the allegation tremendous power. So either we're a society that's just fine with racism, or there are people that are lying about this and exploiting it because we're actually hypersensitive about racism and talk about it all the time, and that helps certain political interests gain power. That's what's really going on, and we understand. You can see it. It's so obvious. We're liberating, liberating Fifth Avenue. Oh my gosh, no one's even gonna remember. No one's

even gonna remember this. You know, in six months people walk back, they did they really paint Black Lives Matter on the store? What was that all about? What's getting better? What's changing for the better? Defunding defunding cops. That's a stupid position, right, that's aggressively stupid. So that's not going to be something that anyone looks back on with fondness. So what is changing for the better Trump losing the election. That's what it really, that's the actual answer in their minds.

Everything else is just it's just make believe stuff. I mean, except for some of the true activists, some of the hardliners who think that this is going to bring about something better. I mean, you want to talk about what's going on. Nancy Pelosi was asked yesterday about tearing down statues and she, look, this is the most powerful elected Democrat in the country right now, I did. It's just kind of just stupid dicks that day, ask her. Yeah, she's just yeah, yeah, this is who the Democrats want

to lead. I mean, I I Financy Pelosi's so both odious and unimpressive, but Democrats they just love it. They love it because she's just a really a really nasty, vicious partisan who has no who has no remorse for what she says or does, doesn't care, fights as dirty as she can of a completely ruthless demagogue. That's what they want, that's what they like. You know, Pelosi is a political knife fighter. That's why Democrats like her so much.

And why do they hate Trump so much? Because he actually shows up and you know, usually it says he wants to fight back to I'm telling you Trump still doesn't have still doesn't have to fight, and the fire in the belly right now that we need from him, it's not there. We'll talk more about that later. I don't know what it's going to take. I don't know what it's going to take. Um, we're going to figure

that out though, real soon. But here's Pelosi. She's asked about statues and what needs to be done, as you know, what is a good policy or how should we think about the tearing down of statues? Here she is playclip one. I don't again, the community doesn't want the statue there. The statue shouldn't be there. It doesn't diminish my pride in my Italian American heritage and the fact that it was a country discovered by an Italian name bring Italian Americovaspucci.

So I have that pride, but I don't care that much about statues. PLEA shouldn't have been done by a commission or the city council, not a mob in the middle of the night throwing it into the it's a it is. I do think that from a safety standpoint, it would be a good idea. She kind of just muttered it there. I don't know if you really caught it, but she said, people will do what they do. People will do what they do. Wow, let them meet Cake

Nancy showing it's exactly who she is here. You're like, yeah, let the rabble just destroyed things. That's what they're gonna do. They're gonna destroy statues, rip them down. We're not gonna tell them to stop. Come on, this is good for Democrats right now. We got Republicans playing defense all the time. Every moron can go on CN and be like, what about Confederate statues. We're like, oh, yeah, you mean like

Gandhi and Christopher Columbus, those those traitors to the American ideal. Right, It's just this is what you have, a complete absence of of any seriousness on policy, on ways to get the country moving in the right direction. Again, it's just locked down, be miserable, be terrified, and let's all sit around for more honestly pointless lectures from activists about how racist America is. That's that's what the Democrats really stand

for right now. And the misery that people are going through, the isolation, the destruction of businesses, the free fall that some entire industries are in, the children who can't go to school, the hopes and dreams of small businesses, of business owners smashed. I don't care for any of that. Hey, I'm more important stuff to think about. That's the Democrat approach. That's why Nancy's like, Yeah, people are gonna do what they do. They can throw down statutes, whatever, what are

you going to do about a Republicans? You know, last week or so, we heard a lot of stuff from TRUMPA but oh, we're gonna lock up the people that are doing the statutes. Okay, we've seen less statues destroyed this week, so maybe that's working from that angle. But where's the counter narrative, where's the where's the the fire speech? Not just from Trump, from the people around Trump, from the Republican Party, I mean the Republican Party right now, it just looks like it's it's it's like it has

been neutered. It's like no one has any backbone, no one has any willingness to get into the fight right now. I don't know, I don't know how else to say it, you know, or you see these a lot of senators have time to do podcasts. I'm seeing these days, a lot of people in Congress are like building their media brands. How about getting in the fight, guys, how about say that Black Lives Matter isn't going to make anyone's lives

better right now? How about making that case publicly Republicans, how about it's going to be bad for minority communities because they'll be less police presence, which means people are less safe. People will die, they'll be attacked, real estate values will go down. The tax base is fleeing from cities. Cities can only exist if they have high taxes to prop up the welfare state that the city operates, not just the federal government, and also all the city jobs

and all the services. This is going to be bad for everybody. It's gonna be bad for minority communities too. Why aren't they making that case? And people, there's a mentality out there. I see this is the Republicans and watch it all burned down. It's not our problem, No, it is. It is a problem because the suburbs, because the rest of the country watch what's happening, and they don't think, oh yeah, there's crazy Democrats. They're never gonna

win again. They think, what the heck are the Republicans doing. Are those jokers even worth putting in charge? Why are they in power if they can't do anything about this? I mean, I don't see this. And anyone who views what has been going on for the last six weeks as good for Trump and good for the Republicans should avoid thinking about politics very long because they're going to

hurt themselves. This is not good, and it's not good because we do not we do not have a cohesive response from the biggest voices, the biggest platformed Republicans out there. It's always just, you know, everyone's relying on Trump. You know, look what he did in twenty sixteen. Is he gonna do that again? Others need to rise up now, Others need to take the fight either side. I'm telling you,

a lot of people are sitting on the sidelines. You know, they just as long as they get reelected, you know, as long as long as they can keep whatever privileged perch they have in the conservative movement, not willing to actually have the fight though, not willing to take a risk. They're not wartime conservatives. We are not a wartime conservative party right now. That's just the truth. It's not too late. But are we going to turn it around. You're in

the Freedom Hunt. This is the Buck Sexton Show podcastle and we won very decisively, and so they send it into New York and then you know what's going on in New York. Everyone's leaving. It turned out to be a hellhole, and they better do something about it because people are leaving New York. There is a political which it just continues. It's from before I got here, when Obama and Biden and everybody else was slanging my campaign illegally,

illegally slang on my campaign. And that's a very great crime. It's the biggest political crime in the history of our country. What the president is saying there is true. Everything that he says there is true. It is the biggest political crime in certainly my lifetime. I can't think of anything else that from history really lines up with it. They did spy in him, they did try a coup against him.

That's not going to win the election. And I've noticed that there are a whole bunch of people in Conservative Incorporated who have done very well with the whole oh you know, Trump Russia staff, and they were really they're really good fighters on that. But with Black Lives Matter, stuff. They're much more. Oh, I don't really want to you know, I don't really want to get into this fight as much.

This one can be risky. This one's risky talking about you know, Papadopoulos and Russia and collusion and the Durham. People that are like, oh, the Durham probe, the Durham probe. I'm telling you it's not going to make a difference. I even know people are writing writing in last night at a minute, I'm telling you it's not going to make a difference. If someone goes to prison because of the Durham probe, it'll be some clown in the DJ

you'd never heard of before. I'm telling bank on it, you know, if someone if there's a way I could place bets in Vegas on this. So don't think that that's going to save us. And talking about how we were right all the time with Maula, we were right. Yeah, we have to push back against the false narrative when they try to use Russia against Trump, which they're already doing with a Russia bounty with the Taliban. I mean,

it's just craziness. There are people that you know, they've basically been one trick ponies in conservative media for three years now with the Russia Trump collision, they that's all they've talked about. And now we need real philosophical responses, real political counterpunches to this left wing mobilization. And I'm

looking around. I'm saying, you know, I know there are there's, Tucker, there are some people are doing up, of course, but if we're doing it enough, we wouldn't be losing right now. And I'm the one who said to you, what over a month ago, we're losing right now. That hasn't changed yet. That has not changed yet. So I'm not trying to bump people out. Love some fun and talk about, you know,

more entertaining things later on the show. But I do think that it's important to be honest about this because we all have a role to play. We all have a part in this fight at the local, at the state, and at the national level. Do whatever we can. You got to determine what that is. Thanks for listening to the Buses and Show podcast from member to subscribe on Apple Podcasts, the iHeartRadio app, or wherever you get your podcasts. I see here. Earlier today there was a Trump tweet.

I'm talking about how we fight back, how we mobilize our own side, our own arguments. So we show people that if they actually go through the steps, assuming we're not going to have manil in voting across the country, which who knows at this point, but assuming that we have an election that's normal, that it's worth with them to actually show up and vote for Republicans. Remember, there's there's a whole lot of ways that this whole thing

can shake out this fall. And if people believe that it's just not worth the effort to vote for Republicans, and that's a very a very good way, a very you know, that's a very clear path for us to lose. Trump tweeted out this, too many universities in school systems

are about radical left indoctrination, not education. Therefore, I am telling the Treasury Department to re examine their tax exempt status and or function and or funding which will be taken away if this propaganda or act against public policy continues. Our children must be educated, not indoctrinated. Some of you're gonna hear that, you're gonna say, Okay, good, No guys, no, no, no, it's not gonna happen. First of all, again I tell you it's not going to happen. Yeah, just certain things

are Yeah, certain things aren't going to occur. Certain things aren't going to be in your future. Okay. The president is not going to be able to pull the tax exempt status of colleges and universities. It's certainly not going to get done before the election. And now do I

think that they are left wing indoctrination centers? Yeah, but how are you going to how are you going to gauge that we've let the Democrat left take over all of these institutions and now we think that the way to win the MAC is through act of government regulation. Let me tell you that is a sword that will cut both ways very quickly, and the other side will use it much more ruthlessly than we will. So this

is this is a distraction again, a distraction. You know, where are the people out there who are willing to make the case about the trade offs that we need to be prepared for as a society when it comes to handling COVID. I look at me, you know fine, I'm just I've told you about my frustrations today, so you know, well we're gonna let's just well wise into now some other We've got some other things I wanted

to get into and talk about. I don't want to make this me getting just getting angry about the state of the GOP and quite honest with the state of the Trump campaign right now. The Trump campaign looks anemic, but we're told, oh, just keep going with it. M schools, schools, How are the schools We're gonna We're gonna be fine, guys. I'm an optimist. Don't worry about everything's yeah, you can eat some red meat, drink some alcohol, and hope that

Monday the country will still be in one piece. Schools are gonna maybe reopen in some places, not another's half reopen in New York. That's classic. We have Pelosi out there saying that it's a risk to children. Play fourteen. The Secretary of Educations indicated that children should go to school. They have to take risks. Everybody takes risk. Take risk to ride a bicycle, to be an astronaut, there's risk. You have to take risk. No, we don't want our

children to take risk to go to school. We're supposed to mitigate for any damage. We're supposed to keep them safe. So with stiff competition, that was one of the most ill informed stave, but stiff competition though in this administration on this and other subject, this is the soft underbelly, for example, of the big Democrat arguments out there right now, Pelosi sounded for a moment she had where four glasses of savignon blanc. No, Pelosi sounded like she was going

to say something sane and reasonable. You know, there are risks in everything. There are risks in riding up, Yes, that is life, that is true. There are risks in all activities. There are risks in getting up out of bed and leaving your home. There are risks and staying in your home. But notice Pelosi sets that up like, no, that's the crazy position. We need to create a risk free environment in schools when it comes to a pandemic that is out there that has already been shown to

be essentially zero risk to children. Fact, the flu is more dangerous to kids. Influenza is more dangerous to kids than COVID nineteen fact science data. Do we shut down all the schools because of the flu? No, we do not. So to pretend that this is about risk to kids is a lie. It's a lie. I'm glad at least the president is strong on this. I'm giving credit where it's due. He's been making the case this week about

how we got to open up schools here. He is play sixteen, but the young of the healthy to safely return to work into school. We have to open our schools, open our schools. Stop this nonsense. We open our schools. Germany, Norway, so many countries right now they're open. The schools are open and they're doing just fine, and they're opening in the fall. So we have to get our schools open. Denmark, Sweden. We have to get our schools open and stop this

political nonsense. That's what it is, political nonsense, and everyone everyone knows it, right, but people are so entrenched in this,

you know. It was very interesting. I saw I forget actually the guy's name, but I saw a liberal, a sort of a liberal journalist on Twitter who who is one of these guys who calls out the instant and the left, and he said that the real breaking point and I'll say this the breaking well, the breaking point for me with we need to be wartime conservatives and we need to really understand what the other side's all about.

Was Capita. Actually I still that was when I realized that leftism in America, that the Democrat Party has largely embraced a kind of personal destruction politics and an immorality and just a lack of decency and dignity in the way that they pursue power. That they must be stopped. It's not just they have their way, we have our way. We have to do everything possible to prevent them from being able to inflict their lunacy and their evil on the rest of the country. Because what they did to

Cavanaugh was evil. It was it was not that wasn't political, that was grotesque, it was wrong, it was it was really the psychological and really it was like the torture of a human being soul televised for the entire country. Lies. It was all lies, and they went along with the Democrats senators and all the media and the cowards at CNN and the morons and MSNBC, they all went along with it. For this A Jesse Single I believe is the guy's name. Actually I don't know him, know nothing

about him. I just I saw his uh, I saw his thing on Twitter and he said that for him. There there was a real break with liberal journalists when the Covington remember the Covington story came out, and you know, Covington Catholic High School fro Kentucky. The boys are at

the LinkedIn memorial. Baby wasn't in Washington, d C. And we're told that the Covington kids were being racist, right, they were being racist, and they were they were antagonizing a Native American activist and elder and it was so racist. And you know, adults, people like Reza Oslin, who's a disgusting little turdu They said, you know, he should be punched.

The kid should be punched in the face. And then the full video came out showing that the adults went up to the kids and antagonized the kids, and the kids didn't do anything. And thank god, Nicholas Sandman sued seeing and I hope, I hope he is, uh, you know, going swimming in a vault of gold coins after school every day courtesy of Jeff Zucker and the rest of

the CNN disgraces. But what was so interesting is when Jesse single pointed out that even when the video came out and it showed you exactly what happened, there's no dispute about what happened. You can see the whole thing unfold. You got audio, you got video, the lead up to it, everything is there. You watch the whole thing. So they're still liberal journalists who are like, no, still racist, the

kids are still racist. It didn't matter. Liberalism And I hate that term for it, and that's why I say leftism. But the the we need better words to describe who they are and what they are on the left, we need better terms to use for them. I mean, they're democrats, and maybe that's just we just need to always say these are democrats that are doing These are democrats that are under undermining and really destroying foundational principles of our society.

It's all. It's democrats who are doing this. But they're in a post fact reality now. It doesn't matter. They make a claim, the claim will be proven demonstrably clearly false. Doesn't matter, doesn't matter, and as long as it was successful for the purposes of the left at the time, it is actually praiseworthy. And this guy, a single I thought it was so interesting that he says they watched the video, he knew people in journalistma watch that this

was all on Twitter. He wrote this, and it didn't matter. It didn't matter, and that's where we are now, right. This is how you get journalists who will be like, well, I'm not a mostly peaceful oh you know, protests and they got hit in the head with a rock because the truth that doesn't matter. They're trying to create a perception of the country of what's happening that is in line with a narrative that benefits them individually and benefits their view of what life could be if only people

all believe the lies. That's what we're up against. So it is very challenging, and I know I've been a little harder on the President in the campaign recently, saying where's the counter message, where's the counter meassage. It's not

easy and it's gonna take a lot. And I'm hoping the rally in New Hampshire, although I'm seeing it might be delayed because of whether I'm hoping that that is a really important and powerful moment of further you know, I keep using s term mobilization, but that's really what it is. People get energized, people feel like, hold on

a second, there's something here. You've felt that energy in twenty sixteen, every rally, every Trump's speech, every time Trump was on TV and his supporters and they will walk around these maga hats on. They're like, Oh, it's coming. And a lot of you in this audience knew and you were telling me, and I was like, really, you think this guy can win? You were like, you're darn right, he can win. Buck, I'm guaranteeing you he's gonna win. You saw it. Where is that? How do we recapture that?

How do we get that back? That's what we have to do. If that doesn't happen, we lose, and these complete and utter lunatics we'll be running the country. I mean, Joe Biden's policy document that came out that was written by the left wing radicals of his party makes it very clear what we're in for. All they have to do, just just to give you a sense of the stakes, all they have to do is yeah, an amnesty and

it's all over. Then then it'll be conservatism will be this this ideology that's kind of almost a historical you know, it will be an anachronism. It'll be something like, oh, that's cute. It'll be like libertarians are today. You know, we're all libertarians. You know, you guys are nice and all, but pat on the head. You're never gonna have a president, You're never gonna win any offices, you never have any power.

Great conservatism will be like that, and you'll just basically have a one party state where the only fighting is over how much Marxism there is, how deep and how far reaching the identity politics are, what aspects of the constitution are completely dispensed with. You know, that's what we're That is what we're facing. I don't think there's any

I don't think there's really any question about it. And people should understand that because right now, I think it's easy to fall back and get a little complacent if you're like, oh, but you know, is it really are the stakes really that high? The Benz, do you like living in a place where they disband the cops? Because even those you who live in red states, guess what's going to happen? You like living in a place where you know the federal government comes in and says, yeah, no,

you're not allowed to have any guns. Guess what's gonna happen. You're in the freedom hud. This is the Buck Sex and Show podcast. I can hardly wait, I can hardly feel with whether he refers themselves as a stable cheese. I can hardly wait to debate. Do we think those debates are even gonna happen? People ask me, and I say, I don't know. I don't think anybody really knows. At

this point. You want to really, if you're a Democrat, you're gonna expose Joe Biden to that, to being out there in front of the whole world so that we can all see him go er er er, oh the thing. And then there's a there's a po mcgrantin on top of the ship deck and then I came down and I saw umbrella and it was going to the moon, and you know, yeah, yeah, man vote for me and president yeah or senator or whatever, chief dog catcher, who knows.

That's what they're thinking, that's what they're hoping to do. I I wanted to note that there was a thread here from Alex Barrenson. He's the he's the databased skeptic of panic that we've had him on the show before. Here's what he says about coronavirus in the Sunbelt. Particularly says, let's talk about this is all from his thread. Let's talk about the catastrophe the Sun Belt. Positive tests are running high, hospitals are fuller but not full, and yes

now deaths have risen how much? Arizona, Florida, Texas, with sixty million people, reported two hundred and forty two deaths combined yesterday, which is down from two hundred and ninety three the day before that. This number is not fully comparable to the New York April figures because the epidemic has gone on long enough that there is much more backdating now, so current counts may be somewhat inflated, But on its face, it translates into a death rate of

about ten percent of New York's peak days. Further, although death's lag the sun Belt spike has now gone on long enough that the pig should be making its way through the python, it's quite an analogy. That is, deaths typically occur fourteen to eighteen days after a positive test and ten to fourteen days after hospitalization. In New York, the gap was much shorter. In fact, after adjusting for that two week lag. Florida and Texas are report relatively

low case fatality rates right now. Multiplying actual versus reported cases by ten x. This is probably low, but they've been testing heavily puts the IFR right in the point two to point three percent we'd expect individual fatality rate if as pserology studies have suggested the actual versus reported rate is more like twenty x. For every positive test twenty people have been infected, the infection fatality rate will be even lower, possible treatments will have improved, or we

are protecting possible rather if treatments have improved, or we are protecting nursing homes better. So that's just that's a little bit of additional background here on what's really happening. And as I've been saying, Okay, maybe we have hit a spike in these places, but the virus is ripping through and the virus will go down. It will, it

will go down. And what will happen, though, is if we lock down before the virus on its own starts to go down, which is what will happen as people change their behaviors and take additional precautions on their own. And but as that happens, they want the lockdown. So then then it's oh, you know, they have to make sure the lockdown occurs when the downslope of the cases and the fatalities happens, because one, if it doesn't, then people will say, well, why are we locking down if

this is happening anyway? And two, as long as they get that going around the same time, and it really is already happening in some of these states, Texas and others, they can say, well, we don't want it to come back, so we've got to stay in lockdown until the cases go down to zero. Crush crush the virus, they say, which was never really the strategy, that's never what was agreed on. But that's what's going on. That's what they're trying to do, and some of it is fear driven

and panic driven. You know what is Bill Nye, the science guy have to say about this? I saw that tweet today. Bill Nye has an undergraduate degree in mechanical engineering. I don't give a crap with Bill Nye thinks about SARS cove. Two. Thanks for listening to the Bus Sesson Show podcast. Remember to subscribe on Apple podcast, the iHeart Radio app, or wherever you get your podcasts. Can I just take a quick bow folks on something not really it's not bow worthy, I grace. I mean, you're like

boo Buck don't be that guy. Don't be that guy. I'm the smartest, the best. You don't need to be that guy. You wants to be a normal person who understands that. You know, we're all we're all trying to learn as we go, and everybody makes mistakes. But I was right about what would happened with Judge Sullivan. Um, what what would happened with Judge Sullivan in the FLYNT case. It's come out today that he is delaying and wants a full on bank or there will be a full

on bank review. I always say, like more French people say end bank, I think, but that's happening because the day that the initial appeals court ruling came down, sure enough, I say this is good. But it's not over, folks, because guess what he's going to demand an en bonk here. He's gonna drag this out. They're never gonna let this go. The deep state loons will never let this stuff go. They're just gonna make it's clear what justice demands. Your

justice demands an apology for General Flynn. You know, a check from the federal government for about ten million dollars and we're so sorry, sir. This should have never happened to you. Please accept our apologies. That's justice. No, no, no, not this, not to this judge. He's decided that even though an appeals court has already said he got to end this trial, He's like, no, I want I want the whole appeals court to hear this. I don't drag us out a little more. It's it's stunning, But I

I the day of it. I actually have a I have a written record of it. On Twitter when this initially came out on the twenty fourth of June, I wrote, very good news for Flynn and a big step for justice. But it's not over. Judge Sullivan has come this far. Why would he give up? He has no integrity or impartiality to protect anymore. Stop thinking these deep state anti trumpers are rational and fair. Prepare for on bunk. Guess what was announced today for the last twenty four hours

on bunk. So I'm just saying, I'm just saying the bucks the Buckster nailed that one. Do I get a high five producer? Mark? Sure? Next time I see you there we go? Thank you? Yeah? Which I feel like it's been so long, you know, you could have grown hair down the center of your back, be like have a big beard, wearing tight eyed shirts now and all the stuff. You know you're you're just I don't even know, man, I haven't seen you forever. Yes, I'm actually a buff

with long hair. Now. Nice. No, that's a good job. Congrats. So we're talking about Biden debating Trump. I don't I think that this could go either way if they have any excuse, If they think that that Biden's basically gonna win and there's no need, why would they take the risk. They don't want Biden to be there, like you know, you know, same little chitmunk sitting on a bread and cheating a lot of acorns on uncle's ranch. Step into my office because I'm Joe Biden and it doesn't really

sound like that, but you get the idea. So that that's one thing. Oh, some of you been asking me about China stuff, and I have not been talking very much about it. We got a few things here. One is I sound a little bit like Cuomo there. Let's talk about China. China is a place that's very large. What do I mean by very large? I mean that it's a country where Governor Cuomo is not in charge. Why is he not in charge because it's technically a commune. Okay.

There was a border skirmish between some Chinese and Indian soldiers recently, and from what I read of it, it got so close quarters. This is way up at very high elevation, but it got so close quarters that there were clubs, it was hand to hand combat, and a couple of dozen people were killed. So it is really vicious and nasty. And now India is saying that they're they're going to ban certain apps like TikTok. So oh, now we're going to talk about we got well. Hold

on's first, let's deal. I'll get into the TikTok than in a second. And it's not like TikTok TikTok that you're hearing on the news about the election or anything like that. Pompeo, here's what he said about China, just as a general the Secretary of State play twenty incapable will being transparent, of accepting criticism, of allowing reporters to ask them questions that they find uncomfortable that elicit the truth and the facts. We still have significant questions about

who patient zero was. Now six months on at least from when this began the Chinese Communist Party. That authoritarian model simply can't prevent the kind of inquiry or has to prevent that kind of InCor because they're afraid. They're afraid that the truth will be something that will not shine a happy light on what took place, and so instead they chose to hide and obfuscate and deny basic truth,

basic scientific truth about what took place. This is a fundamental and fatal flaw for authoritarian regimes, and it's why

the Chinese Commist Party has to be held accountable. Yeah, China is not being a good partner, to put it mildly, on figuring out the whole chain of transmission from the first person to now millions and millions of people around the world with COVID nineteen, I think we will return to the debates over whether this was in a lab and perhaps tinkered with but not necessarily engineered from scratch in a lab, versus whether it came from someone eating bat or pangolin soup. I feel like I feel like

we settled on for that theory. It was supposed to be pangolin and not bat, but then it was maybe back to bat. Of all the soups producer Mark. I gotta say bat would be if I were having some form of rare animal soup, that would be like top five last animals that I would want to eat. Yeah, I agreate that. I don't I think I would ever cried bat soup, that's for sure. Yeah. And it always reminds me of that scene in Indiana Jones and the

Temple of Doom, which I'm assuming you've seen right of course. Yeah, where they cut open the big bowl constrictor and it eats the baby snakes and uh man, that was I wouldn't And then they eat monkey monkey brains. I think i'd go monkey brains before. No, actually, I couldn't do that. I couldn't do that. Monkeys, monkeys. I like monkeys. I don't like eating weird stuff. I'm with you all that it's not worth it, you know. It's although gator does taste it is true. It's not a joke. Gator does

kind of taste like chicken. It's like oily chicken. You're eating alligator. Before you go down to New Orleans. You can eat it pretty easily. They have it all over the place. Ostrich just tastes like like turkey. But tougher. I don't know. I'm not an Ostrich fan, so, but those are things that are normal to eat, right anyway, what are they talking about it? Oh? Yeah, so I eat bats. I was like, what are we telling that's soup? Sorry, I got a little bit off track there for a second.

So we haven't been able to find out from the Chinese what's really going on with that, and they're never going to tell us because China is responsible for destroying the global economy pretty much, and trillions and trillions of dollars of wealth destroyed and ruined and lives ruined and people dying, and the amount of misery and despair that China's, China's dishonesty and an aptitude as has inflicted upon the whole world is something they'll never make amends for and

they'll never admit. Remember, this is a country that pretends it didn't starve sixty million of its own people to death about fifty years ago. Okay, sixty million, folks, Mao's great leap forward. Yeah, sixty million, forty to sixty million. It's the estimate you usually see. So there's that, and then there's the continuing cyber espionage campaign against the US and against any global competitor that China has and this app called TikTok. Now, and I know this is from

a counterintelligence perspective. All my friends from a CI world are going to grow and throw things at their speaker right now as they hear me say this. But yes, I do have TikTok on my phone. I wanted to. I thought I was a new and emerging platform. I thought I should understand it. Producer Mark, do you ever use it? Yes, I also have the app on my phone. Yeah. Apparently that means that Beijing can just see whatever whatever Producer Mark is texting missus Mark, I'm just saying, keep

it clean because they can see everything. I don't know if that's really true or not. I don't think that's true either. That's as I know, it's not true. That's what everyone's afraid of. You're very quiet there for a second, though, So they're they're worried that the origins of the TikTok app, because it is a Chinese state backed entity there, that they are using this as a giant surveillance operation effectively. So here's Pompeo talking about that play nineteen with respect

to TikTok. I want to put in the broader context, we have been engaged in a constant evaluation about ensuring that we protect the privacy of American citizens and their information as a transit. So this doesn't relate to any one particular business or company, but rather to American national security. We are striving to get that light. The comments that I made about a particular company earlier this week fall in the context of US evaluating the threat from the

Chinese Communist Party. We've talked about in the context of Zte, We've talked about it, in the context of Huawei. We are now evaluating each instance where we believe that US citizens data that they have on their phones or in their system, or in their healthcare records. We want to make sure that the Chinese Communist Party doesn't have a

way to easily access that. And so what you'll see the administration do is take actions that preserve and protect that information and deny the Chinese Communist Party access to the private information that belongs to Americans. Okay, I mean that all sounds reasonable, and at some point this degree of technical know how becomes something that you're just gonna yeah, trust the experts. Which is a scary thing to say these days. You know, they're saying you have to be

worried about this. I'm just gonna tell you this though, TikTok is pretty addictive. They ever use a producer mark you, what do you think? Oh yeah, you can spend hours on it without even noticing that you spent hours hours. It combines the It combines the kind of curated video feeling of Netflix with the quick hit just scroll, scroll, scroll, scroll scroll of Instagram and you can just sit there

and you'll just watch. I mean, I you know what I really love are the they make these short cooking videos where it's just like bing bang boom, and all of a sudden you've got everything you need done to make you know, fried chicken or to make you know, baked ZD or whatever, and it's just it's addictive. And there's also this other thing where they show you how to do a shuffle dance, which I have not yet learned to do, but it looks cool and I think I could do it. You know, do you ever see

their shuffle dance video? There's a lot of them. Yeah, I'm partial to the dog videos, though there's some great dog Yeah, there's there's some great dog stuff. So there's good content on there, and I kind of want to start doing some from Freedom Hunt content on there, but not if we're going to be told that this is

a communist Chinese spying apparatus. But I kind of wonder, I mean, unless they can get access to your phone, which I mean, they've got a whole lot of the technological capability that even goes beyond what Apple security could detect. And unless they can do that, I don't know what are they going to find out that I like dog videos and cooking videos and wish I could dance. I mean, what's the I don't really see the horror, but I know all my CEI friends bucket rounder five g wha way, Oh,

they're all gonna get some amount of me. I know. Look, I'm the one who says that China's engaged in a civilization altering theft of intellectual property, technology and advancement over decades long, and that we're gonna wake up in I've been saying fifty it's probably more like ten or fifteen years and realize, okay, okay, so we're not actually ahead of China in anything anymore. That's what's gonna happen, and that's gonna be a not a good not a good moment,

not a good realization for all of us. So we shall have Well, I'll have to see how of that shakes out. But I don't know. I kind of like TikTok. So you can all you I know, yell at me in the comments section, tell me how terrible I am for liking TikTok. But it's kind of fun, some groovy tunes. You're in the Freedom Hunt. This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast. All right, team, I want to introduce you to somebody who's up on the political scene now, and I think you're gonna be hearing a lot more from

in the months and years. Hey, she's a candidate for Colorado's District, the third district out in the west of the state. Lauren Bobert joins us now. She's also a mom, a business owner. She just won her primary. Lauren, thanks for thanks for hanging out, Thanks so much for having me on today. You know, as a mom, I've never

been a politician, but I am certainly a freedom loving patriot. Yes, tell us how things are going on Colorado, because there's so much focus right now on COVID and the economy and the reopen Colorado is actually doing pretty well from what I gather, But you tell us how are things going out there? Colorado is doing well, and I think it's time for us to reopen. I've been a champney, a champion for reopening small businesses for quite some time now.

In my restaurant and Rightful Colorado, I actually took a stand against Governor Jared Pulls's tyrannical orders after he was extending his executive orders forcing small businesses to stay shut down, and I really took a stand against that and opened by restaurant. I followed government's guidelines. That's the proper role of government to inform us of the risk and then allow us to use our personal responsibility to choose if we want to take that risk or not. So I

followed the CDC guidelines and I reopened my restaurant. Through that, I had a lot of elected officials coming against me, and I even lost my food license for about a week. But the City of Rifles stepped in and they commended me for us spurring this into action and getting something done to open small businesses. We had Walmart that was open in Rifle, Colorado, with customers able to walk freely throughout their stores, but yet small business owners were being

forced to close. That's government choosing winners and losers instead of stepping in and having reasonable solutions. Like the city of Rifle ended up building patios outside of other restaurants right there on the street where shooters grill is Lauren, and I'm so glad to hear that you were willing to go against, as you put it, the tyrannical orders, because I'm here in New York and so many folks are just lying down and doing whatever they're told to

do by the government, especially about their small businesses. When you were in that state of reopen, I'm just one. How much time would you say you would have had left before you'd have to think, I don't know when i'm I don't know if I'll ever be able to open up my restaurant. And are you seeing throughout the state of Colorado concerns from small business owners that they may never be able to reopen if they can't get back up and running soon. Unfortunately, that is the case,

and that is exactly where I was. My husband and I used to have a savings account. We poured everything into our business to keep our employees employed. I didn't feel comfortable taking the PPP alan. I just didn't have peace about that. And I'm really grateful that I personally didn't for those who did great and by that it helped, but it kept me in the fight to reopen small businesses. I didn't become just complacent and saying everything's taken care of,

I'll let government do their thing. But I was out of time. Pay day was coming and I was going to have to look my employees in the eye as say, I'm sorry, thank you for all the hard work that you've done, but I can't pay you this week. And what I called my county commissioners when I called the county Public Health Department and I told them that we were our doors were going to be closed if we didn't do something soon. They said, it's okay, you can

wait another week. We're going to start our discussions next week. And said, no, you're still receiving a paycheck. So it's much different for you to wait another week than it is for my employees and myself. And you know, not only not only were they receiving that paycheck, but they still had a sense of purpose in life. They were able to wake up in the morning and fulfill their daily duties and have that sense of accomplishment at the

end of the day. Well, so many of us were at home with a sense of hopelessness with nothing to look forward to. Lauren, We've got an army of Lawyer listeners, especially in the outer reaches of Denver in the suburbs, and they can reach all the way out. The signal there from ninety three seven can reach out to all corners of your state. So I just want to know, we got about thirty seconds left. But how's your race going? And where should people go if they want to help out?

This race is amazing. I just won my primary for the first time in forty eight years hearing Colorado an incumbent has been taken out in a primary. It's been tremendous. The momentum all throughout the district has been great, and all throughout our state and nation even people are following. This is as brass roots as it gets, and our campaign is only as successful as the people that I've

surrounded myself during the primary. And I'm excited to bring that same passion and enthusiasm into the general election to take out my far less opponent, Diane mitch Bush, and I need everyone's help at Lauren for Colorado dot com to join me in taking her socialist narrative out. All right, Lauren, when you win, you got to come back on and celebrate with us. Okay, thanks so much, and good luck. I'll be here. Thanks so much. Thanks for listening to

The bus Essen Show podcasts. Remember to subscribe on Apple podcast, the iHeartRadio app, or wherever you get your podcasts. Oh Man, we talk about cancel culture a lot because it's real and it's all over the place. What is it really, What does it mean? What's it like? What happens as a result of cancel culture? Who gets targeted? This is an ongoing discussion. I can't give you all the answers

right now, but here's here's a perfect case endpoint. A guy named Thomas Bosco, who owns the Indian Road Cafe in Manhattan, is coming under fire. This is a story by David Marcus, or it's an opinion piece by David Marcus the New York Post. So here's what happened this guy Bosco in May went on MSNBC's first that's his first mistake. You know, you can't you can't go on these lib propaganda outlets unless you're unless you're going to be a lib that bends the knee and does everything

they want you to do. If you're expecting fair treatment, if you're expecting people to be open minded to your point of view, you will be sorely misstaken. And unfortunately this guy's this is a civilian, he's not a media guy. And so he went on TV and figured I could just talk to people. Here's here's what how David Markus describes it. In May, Bosco went on MSNBC to discuss the devastating economic impact of the coronavirus lockdowns on his business.

When asked by host Are Melberg how he grated Trump's performance during the pandemic, Bosco indicated that while mistakes were made, he still supports the president. Bosco added that he also supports Governor Andrew Cuomo and Mayor Bill Deblasio. And then at this point, Melbourne, for god knows what reason, asked Bosco if he had voted for Trump and would he again. The answer to both questions was yes, and that is

all it took. The backlash was swift. According to The New York Times, one member of the mob, egging on the destruction of the man's livelihood and his employees, was Randy Weingarten, president of the American Federation of Teachers. She wrote, it's hard to ever go back. Can ever go back to this guy's restaurant in Inwood, huh, because he said

he's the Trump voters. Now, now, just just remember this when people, because there's a movement right now, there's a movement right now of leftists who are trying to say that there is no cancel culture, that cancel culture is a fiction of conservative paranoia or something so that that's already happening, that's already out there. And so then when there are cases like this of the most egregious kinds of cancel culture, they'll they'll make one of they'll do

one of two things. Either ignore it or they'll say, well, this person really deserved it. I think in this case it's pretty clear that no reasonable, sane person could argue that this is what should happen, although there are a lot of unreasonable insane democrats running around. So now he has been targeted by the left and they want to ruin this guy and they're they're calling for a boycott

of his restaurant just because he's a Trump voter. So if you say that you voted for Donald Trump and people find out the America the Liberals want to work and want to be and want to live in and have created largely for all of us already, is if you say that, they will feel comfortable ruining your life, bankrupting your business, making it so you can't feed your family. So your employees, who I'm sure are probably all Biden would be Biden voters and Hillary voters right work in

the restaurant business. A lot of Democrats are going to be a lot of Democrats there. But this is the country that they want us all to live in, and this is how things are shaking out right now. So I think we should see this for what it is. It is a totalitarianism. It's it's wrong, and until we band together and say enough, it's going to keep happening, until the culture changes and we go back to a place where you can say to somebody, yeah, I don't agree with what you said, but I'm just gonna go

on living my life. Lives. Can't handle that anymore makes me feel unsafe. Your ideas makes me feel unsafe. That's what they like to say, that's what they like to do, and it's so intellectually and morally bankrupt. This this approach that they've taken. But this is widespread. That was what the writer at Vox, you know, that far left website, I mean probably them like the most progressive trash heap in many ways online. I mean, it's what's it's like.

It's it's comedy without trying to be that's how left wing it is. I mean you you read the headlines constantly on vox dot com and you'll think, is this is this the Babylon be making fun of making fun of liberals. No, it's actually that's that's who they are, that's what they are all about. And you had a writer say that because this guy, Maddie Iglaciers, who is a far left wing progressive, but he did sign his name to that letter saying, hey, can we start to

protect open debate and discussion. Another writer at Vox came out and said that she felt unsafe because her colleague signed a letter saying that people should be allowed to disagree. These people are supposed to be journalists, they're supposed to believe, and not just believe in, but defend the free expression of ideas. They're supposed to think that this is central

to their position. And then there was an additional you know how, there was that letter that I mentioned that Maddie Iglaciers and other people, you know, Salomon Rushti and David from and not On, all these other people, many of whom really aren't worth reading or hearing from, but they all signed this thing saying we should have open debate. Now there's a letter in response to it, a letter on justice and open debate, and this is from the Objective dot com, a more specific letter on justice and

open debate they're calling it. And it's all about how open debate is actually bad and here's why opened free exchange of ideas is bad. And here's why. And it's signed by all of these journalists from huff Post, CNN, New York Times, NBC, all these different places, and we wonder, we wonder why we have the media that we do. It was really a reminder as you read through it that our media is full of and I mean this,

journalists are generally dumb. They're they're really the dumbest people in and you know, for a profession that prides itself on having really smart people, the disparity between the reality of the stupidity of the people in the profession versus their perception of themselves. I think there's a bigger golf, a wider golf for journalists than any any other profession that exists. I really really believe that. So this letter is a perfect example of And then you have the

Goya CEO of Goya beans. I think I don't know what else did is it? They do other things, brucer marktin beans, Yeah, all types of Spanish food products, a lot of span Okay, well I just know of it as Goya beans. I don't know, there's okay, but other Spanish food products as well. He went to a hispanicum like jobs speech thing that the White House did, you know, promoting Hispanic entrepreneurship and good things, and he just said, you know, I appreciate the leadership the president is shown.

But if if you're a Hispanic CEO and you show up and say you like President Trump, people will stop eating Libs will stop eating your food. That's where we are now. They're they're these, they're absurd, They're you're ranged I mean, they really have emotional Liberals have widespread emotional problems. They think it's politics, but really they've got they've got a lot of undiagnosed or hidden mental illness that is driving their politics, or maybe their politics has made them

have a problem where they're mentally ill. They have a hysteria, they have a mania, they have That's what's happened. We're dealing with this now across the country. I know I'm not a psychiatrist or a psychologist, but you don't have to be to see that this is a mass hysteria and these people are completely nuts. They're nuts. You're in the freedom huh. This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast.

All right, Freestyle Friday is upon us, which means a producer Mark, all of your hard work this week, staying up late, taking copious notes on the various voicemails that are called in for us. We can now actually hear some of them. Correct, Yeah, yes we can if you want to leave them for next week. Folks eight four four nine two eight two five eight four four nine hundred Buck producer Mark play that funky music, Hey, Buck,

and producer Mark. This is packing Lancaster, Pa, Hey, the governors in the Democratic States and other people as well are following a science and it's called science fiction because we know the virus cannot be filtered, A sub microscopic virus can't be filtered by almost every mask. We know that, so it's it's science, but it's science fiction. I hope you keep mentioning that or use that in your talk if you think so. The other thing is you did you look up Elmer Fud yet, because you're so good

at doing certain voices. I thought an Elmer fund voice you'd be excellent at. So I'm hoping you can do that sometime. Thanks bye, Well, thank you sir for your voicemail. And yes, there's there's actual science to show that the penetration of fabric masks by Aerosoliyes virus is very, very high. I've even seen one study suggests it's the size ninety seven percent. So yeah, you're getting about a three percent Yeah, wear that mask, three percent protection from viral from virus

you know, getting into your mouth basically. Yeah. Now, I'm not saying that that's the established number, but it's not super high. If all we had to do was wear masks, you would have enclaves of this country with no coronavirus because people wear masks all the time. It's not nearly as effective as people think, and it may be almost entirely ineffective against this virus. We will find out, but in the meantime people act like the science is subtled. And that's for Elmer Fudd. Is that is that I

taught I tore a puddy cat? Is that is that Elmer Fudd? I believe? So I think that is? Is that I taught it to a puddycat? Yeah, I have to I don't know. I don't have Elmer Fudd in my head, so I'd have to think a little bit more about it. Then there's isn't there that guy fog horn lego on I said, I said that that guy, right, Yeah, he's there. There are all uneatans. Producer producer Nick is weighing, and what's what's he telling me here? Oh, that's tweetie bird, No,

my veasiline, omber father, that's tweety bird. Whoops whoops. Yeah definitely yea, yeah, I gotta figure this stuff out all right. Next next one from our voicemails, hid it Hey producer Mark hey Buck feel the brit here from Saint Augustine, Florida, love the show. Two quick questions so the original Saturday show? Was it only two hours long? Am I remembering that correctly? I'm a second questions around asymptomatic people. They're relatively young,

the main part of our workforce. With all the testing, testing, testing that we hear about, do we know what percentage of the workforce are asymptomatic? And when do they stop being cottagious? We need to get past this fear mongering that we had and get our economy going again. Thanks Buck Shields high shields on my friend cool accent too. I always liking we get cool accents. The second question you asked about asymptomatic workforce, I'll deal with that first.

I believe we don't know. The estimates are that up to twenty times the number of established tested cases in any given day. So if you if you for every person you test in an area who comes up positive, they think ten to twenty times that number are actually positive with the case at that with the virus at that time, asymptomatic cases. I just think there's no really good there's really no good estimates of how many people out there in the workforce right now, have it? And Mark?

What was his second question? His original question was about the original Saturday Squad Show? How long was it? Oh? The original oss The original Saturday Squad Show was three hours and it was from It was on Saturdays from twelve to three eastern PM. And that's when we started, and we had like a handful of people listening, and then we grew it and grew it and grew it. That's actually a moment here where I actually want to transition for a second, and we'll get back to the voicemails.

I saw today that Jay Severn had passed away, and I wanted to take a moment just to say that we should, all those of us who knew him, and anybody in general, should send thoughts and prayers to his family. I knew Jay a bit from working with him there, and I gotta tell you, I was really sad. He was only sixty nine. I'm really sad to hear. But I think it was cancer. It wasn't from COVID. He was. He was a good guy. I didn't know him super well, but I really just knew him professionally. He was a

radio He was a radio host, radio host. He was really interesting and he had stuff to say, and I always appreciated it. When we had the Man in the Moon festival in Salt Lake City with Glenn, I don't know now, maybe seven six seven years ago, I spent some time in a car to kind of a long ride with just Jay Severin and me, and we talked so much about the radio business and we hung out.

We hung out for hours that day, and I always remembered one he went through all the radio hosts that you would know and gave me his just sort of professional assessment of who's good at what, who's really talented, who's really lucky, who's really nasty? And I thought he was spot on. So so that's uh, you know. The only one I'll say a loud is he says Rush is the greatest that's ever done. The Rush is the greatest radio host to have yet lived. And I agree

with them on that. I won't tell you about the rest of them because I don't want to cause any problems. But he also was very encouraging to me and said that he had not really come across well, you know, he said he hadn't come across anybody who was so young, who got so good so fast at radio, which I thought was a very nice thing to say so, and I appreciated that. That was really encouraging to me early

on in my career. And Jay wasn't the kind of guy for those you'd ever listened to him and him as a host, he was can say what's up his mind nobs kind of a guy. But he had some very nice things to say about my ability as a radio host when I was just really getting started. You know, It's before I had filled in for Rush and before I had gotten syndicated and everything else. So I always appreciated that, and I'm sorry to hear that he passed. And I know a lot of people spend a lot

of time listening to Jay. So okay, now let's let's get back into our voicemails. Producer Mark, what's up next? Hey Buck? Producer Mark, This is Rob from Wisconsin. I just wanted to let you know I've been listening to your show since back to the Blaze days and love everything you're doing for us and the cost and the conservative cost. Basically just wanted to say that until we would start wrapping up some of this rioting and breaking of a law, really we don't have to move forward.

I agree with you on the wartime conservatism. I think it's time for us to put a foot down and stop this madness. Anyway, keep up a good fight, love your show, Take care Fields High Sheels. Hi, thank you so much for the call. I appreciate every all of your sentiments there, and I agree with you, and I think that we all, in our own way, need to figure out how we can be a part of the fight, or at least support those who are fighting. Next voice,

Bill Mark, Hi, Bucking Mark. My name is Kevin. I'm part of your Amorial constituency out here in a suburb of Denver. Discovered your show last summer when it started Aaron here on ninety two seven, and I think you're a terrific host. You have a fantastic sense of humor and I absolutely love listening to so and Mark. You got to get getting down on yourself. Man. We love you just as much as book Shield Tie. You're both good Americans. Thanks for what you do. That's such a kind.

That's such a kind email, I mean email voicemail, and I always appreciate when one of producer Mark's extended family members calls in like that. So you know, apparently from the Denver area, there's like a second cousin. Mark. You know, he did make one big mistakes. I'm not just as good as Buck. I'm much better. There you go there, you know, you know when you see him at Thanksgiving this year, you got he went off the script. Yeah,

he went off the script a little bit. But no, no, Hey, I'm so glad that we have our our Look, we have a we have a very large and loyal and fantastic listenership in the Denver area one Freedom ninety three seven, and we're very thankful for it. So all of you listening out there, we even had a would be stoned to be congressman from your state today just because we love Denver so much. Thanks for listening to the Busson Show podcast remember just right on Apple podcast, the iHeartRadio

app or wherever you get your podcasts. All right, Mark, how many more voicemails? We got four more? Oh? All right, let's rack him and stack him next. Please, Hey, Buck, it's John from Mount Airy, Maryland. Hey, just fyi, the reason that the Left is so adamant about keeping kids out of school is for the mail in vote. If kids can't be in school, then schools are shut down.

Then voting is basically shut down. Eighty percent of voting happens out of the schools, so they can push their mailed in agenda and if they're anywhere, they're going to cheat. That's it right there. These folks have zero integrity, zero morals. So thanks for your show. Love it, John, thanks so much for calling in. And I had not thought about that.

I'll be honest, you're introducing something new and the conversation for me, I hadn't thought about shutting down schools as part of the strategy to get voting in the voting to be mail in instead of going through schools. But I suppose that is that is the case. Yeah, because I vote my voting district here is a public school, so that makes sense. Yeah, I guess people do use the public schools to do this stuff, right, Producer Mark, do you know? Do you know what you're of course

you're registered, even though you moved. We know that because Pricer Mark wouldn't forget. He wouldn't forget as part of the best political radio show in the country to register in a critical election year. Well, the DMV in New Jersey hasn't been opened since I moved to New Jersey, so it's been a bit difficult. But I don't know where my New Jersey one, but my New York one was always in a public school. Always in public school, right, yeah,

yeah yeah. I Also, I think I have to get one of those upgraded licenses so I can fly on planes again using your driver's license, you know, domestically delayed that because of COVID. But either way, as long as you have your passport, you're okay. You have to bring your passport with you. Oh, you gotta bring your passport with you, Okay, Well, it's kind of annoying. I don't want to bring my passport with me when I go, you know what, flying I'm going to Cleveland. I need

a passport. I mean, I know things got a little crazy in Ohio sometimes, but I'd rather rather than go and wait online of the TMV, I'd rather bring my passport to the airport. Oh. I guess that's that's certainly, that's certainly one approach, one way to go. You know what I'm mad about, Producer Mark, I wanted to do. It is a perfect weekend for it. I want to watch there's a Tom Hanks submarine. It's called Greyhound, a submarine movie. If you have Apple TV app on you,

you can do it. My TV is the model of the TV before what's compatible with Apple TV? So on this rainy ass to pressing weekend, when a submarine movie with Tom Hanks would be just what the doctor ordered. I actually the only way you can watch this is on Apple TV. Do you have Apple TV? What do you mean the Apple TV app? Yeah? Yeah, it shouldn't be compatible with most TV's. Mind's too old. I don't think that's true. Yeah, it is. Mind you don't have

a Roku or something. Mine's from twenty sixteen. No. And also you need a subscription to Apple TV. You know that, right, Yeah, but you could get the free subscription. Will you have the Greyhound movie? And then, well, you know what, I'll give you a lifehack. Since your TV is too old, you do it on your computer. I'm plugging it into the TV. Oh that might work. Producer Mark Golf golf clap for producer Mark. Well done. I'm good with the

tech stuff occasionally. Yeah, that's true. I had not thought about that. Yeah, Producer Mark is like mcgiver, only grumpier and doesn't have a mullet. You do not have a mullet, that's for sure. Yeah you have seen. I don't know, maybe you with the mullet by If that happens, we want selfies and we want it spread far and wide. I don't think my hair can grow that long, Oh man, I think anyone could. I think if you've got hair, you could pull off a mullet, you know what I mean,

as long as it grows in anywhere. My hair is thinning, like I know, I'm gonna be bald in five years. I'm aware. So I don't think you can go that long. And maybe I could. Maybe I could try to bring back like akey breaky heart style mullet, like the real deal. You know, I'd watch it like sexactly. Um okay, UM let's go now to where's where we next on this? Yeah?

Voicemail hit it. I thought this is I am from Alabama. Um. I'm hoping that President Trump will get reelected, But my main concern is what about the House and the Senate. If we lose those or don't gain enough, will the president be sort of walk down like it has been the last four years? Just miniage your thoughts on that

thanks love the show. Ba Well, Diane from Alabama, thank you so much for calling in and for your kind of voicemail and and yeah, you know you you raise a very good point if we even if Trump does win, which will be amazing, Even if Trump does win, it seems to me that the House and the Senate, if they both go against Trump, we got we got big problems.

Remember if they had the votes, they would have if they had the votes, and it would have had to be a two thirds majority, but they would have removed this president from office. Now you might say, well, thankfully the founders were genius enough to foresee this and make it so. It's really hard through just pure partisan rancor to remove a president through the impeachment process. It's got to be very clear. And remember it's impeachment and right

impeachment of the House, removal in the Senate. But if they even have control of the Senate so they can have control of committees, they'll they'll just draw down the Trump administration in the second term in lawsuits, they'll just it'll just that's all. Look what they did the first term. This is the way that they do things. They don't make better arguments. They don't have. If they don't inspire people, they just lie and are vicious and undermine and use lawfare.

So you raise a very valid point, a very real concern, which is what happens if he wins the presidency. But you've got both the House representatives and the Senate against him. It's gonna be a dog fight, is what it means. It's gonna be a dog fight. So what do we have here? Next? We got one more? Right? Two more? Here we go? Oh wow, very look at producer of oil to make sure we got a lot of voicemails. Look at you, sir, Hi Buck. It's Joanne from New Jersey.

I had a thought, what if we eliminated the national anthem from all professional sports games? It would do away with a lot of angst and rob them of the effort ttunity to disrespect this country in athletic So it's so far removed from what it started out that it has no meaning for these people anyway. So let's just do without it. Thank you. Also is in from New Jersey.

Thanks for calling in. I yeah, I mean, I'm if they're doing going to do what I think they're gonna do where they start having and I had producer Mark, had you ever heard of the I believe they call it the black what the black national anthem? Yes, I think the NFL has said they're going to play that at the beginning of Week one games. I had never heard of this piece. I hadn't never either. You. Okay, so there's a there's a black national anthem. Apparently I

did not. I'm being serious, I'd never heard of it before. If they're going to do things like that in professional sports, one, I'm going to have a very hard time watching any professional sports because a huge part of the appeal of sports for me is the escape from the politics. And if they're going to play politics with this and then kneeling and everything else. But you know, Diane, know the thing about what what oh Susan rather started, Diane was

before Susan. The issue with what you're saying is that they'll do I think what they want to do. The leagues will do what they want to do, So it's not like they get government permission for the government permission to do the national anthem. But I would say this, I think that there should certainly be a rethink of you know, military flyovers at NFL games, and you know, honor guards and marines from the honorary all. I don't know they should be shown up at these professional sporting

events anymore. You know, the NFL has worked very hard to create this perception of it as America's game, and particularly using a lot of support for the troops and a lot of a lot of military and I love that. I mean that, that's all great, But you know he can't do that and have like disrespect to the flag at the beginning of the game, and people coming up with different anthems than the national anthem, and so on

and so forth. Richer, Mark, what do you think I mean the NFL last time this happened, they a lot of teams just didn't come out for the national anthem. It was played in the team stayed in the locker room. I think. I mean in hockey, I've always liked it. There's been some national anthems at the garden where the stadium's rocking, everyone's singing along. I can go either way. Like I would miss it sometimes like in a playoff atmosphere, but I wouldn't really miss it on an every day game.

Like what's the difference? Just play sports man, I just I just wish professional leagues would be about sports, but that's very apparently too much to ask these days. All right, prison Mark, next one hit it, Hey christ when Spokane, Washington. So I just wanted to thank you for being straightforward

and honest about what you talk about. There's other talk show hosts who unnecessarily the little and demean other people, and I don't necessarily agree with that, even if you don't agree with them, of you, if you don't like them, it doesn't do any good to belittle and demean and demoralize other people. So thank you for what you're doing and being honest and straightforward and to a point, keep it up. Well. Thank you for calling in from Spokane, Washington.

And yes, I do not out of professional jealousy or spite or insecurity, go after other conservatives. I don't do it. You'll know that from listening to my show. Other people do it. Other people do it, especially if they lose in the demo, let's say, for an hour of their show in a major market, somebody who has admit in the market all that long. Other people do stuff like that. I don't do stuff like that. I let the work speak for itself, and I appreciate the time that everyone

gives me here by listening to me every day. And I really mean that. I mean I'm actually humbled by it, and I don't and I know that sounds whenever someone says they're humble by it. It's like, hey, and I really have no I really I'm every day I walk around and I just kind of like, I'm amazed at how much we've been able to build up the show and how many wonderful people appreciate what the work that

Mark and I do here every day. And the Freedom Hunt have producer Nick, who you never got you guys never get to hear from, but he helps us on the on the First, which is the video version of the show that we do every day. But yeah, I know I don't. I don't take cheap shots period, but I definitely don't take cheap shots at fellow conservatives. I wish I could say that about everybody on the right, but you can't. Some people are petty, greedy and nasty.

And I'll just leave it there. But thank you for calling in. You're in the Freedom Hunt. This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast. Okay, now we get into the

We've got an up some upgrades coming to the site this weekend. We are doing cool things and it's rainy and there's no snow Princess in town this weekend. So maybe I don't know, maybe there'll be a history podcast that happens. You never know, zero chance. I just want to prepare the listeners. It's not going to happen. Don't

listen to it, you know, you never know. Of all right, we have the written we have the written stuff here. Oh where did what? Where's the written? Oh no, you did? You did send it to me. I was gonna give you crap, but you act you did sound it to me. Okay, Susie Rights, Hey Buck from Alaska. Hello, I have an idea to get the left to get on board with

opening all the schools in the fall. We just need Trump to go pro homeschooling and reallocate federal funding and expand homeschooling programs, including programs with face based, faith based curriculum. Then the left will have to decide which it hates more COVID nineteen cases or religious stay at home moms. I am not a homeschooling mom, but many of my close friends are, and the leftists have zero love for them.

And my experience, modern feminism or leftism doesn't have any room for women who support traditional Christian values, family values, and many families homeschool to reinforce traditional family values in the next generation. Very thoughtful and eloquence, Susie. Thank you from up in Alaska. Very cool. I watched the movie The Gray recently, which is about wolves chasing Liam Ni who randomly there's some British guy hanging out with all these other guys in Alaska who are clearly American. But

a side note, I think actually he's Irish. Is he Irish? I think he's Irish. But they're chased by cgi wolves. And even though it's ridiculous, and wolves I don't think have ever. I don't think there's ever a documented case of healthy wolves eating a human being in recorded history. But man, it's a fun it's a fun watch. Anyway, It's like it's all cold and the wolves are scary.

I digress. Frank so I was listening today's podcast and one of the listeners wrote in that during roll call, he had a friend who went in to get tested for COVID nineteen, but from what you read, it sounded like his friend was never actually tested get still received a call testing that he stated positive. You then went on to correctly talking about how the entire tracing thing is ridiculous because these tests are taking three to four

days to come back. I think you may have missed the point, though, which that this guy's friend never actually took a test but received a call that he tested positive. Anyway, is that they're inflating the numbers by having people sign up for tests they hope they don't get added into the assumed positive category. Anyway, you and producer Mark are literally the most entertaining duo on talk radio. Thank you so much for what you do. Oh, thank you, man,

that's very nice. We appreciate that well. I cannot grow a beard. I'm a thirty seven year old gray beard, fiercely independent conservative, Marvel and DC loving Star Trek and Star Wars fan, black American millennial whose favorite TV show of all time is proudly stated as Friends, hands down period. I love passing the buck and do it often. People enjoy your chill attitude and welcome vibes. Keep up the good workshields high, Frank, I feel like we're gonna be buddies. Man.

Thank you so much. Frank sounds awesome. I gotta I gotta get my PS four, which I'm thinking about doing so I can play Call of Duty and then Frank and I can play on the same Call of Duty team. Except his favorite TV show of all time. It's just a bad show. Frank, you right into producer Mark and you tell him to luck that up, all right, You tell him to lock it up with his and it's not because it's getting canceled recently. I want to point that out there. It's just a bad show in general.

I don't even know what seriously, Paul writing Harry Cliche, you don't like Joey TRIBIONI. I feel like Joey TRIBIONI and you were like high school friends like George Castanza. Oh that does not that is not a surprise. I am Maureen. You guys are the best, two of my favorite people. Love your podcasts and website. I sure notice producer marks extra saltiness on Tuesday. I think he wants us all to know he's not cuddly like you said

he was. He didn't like that very much, so as Fouchi the fraud and idiot, or is he just being deliberately uptus so as to perpetuate the DNC agenda. The spike and COVID is not due to responsible reopenings as he claimed, it's due to protesters, rioters, looters, and over a million tests today being done, which naturally shows more cases cases are in deaths. Thanks for all you do. Your hard work and efforts haven't gone on. Notice it's

appreciated far more than you know. Well, we really appreciate that. Thank you so much for the kind words. Everybody, that's gonna be the show for this kind of Ray and Sad Friday from New York City. Hopefully it's nice wherever you are. Talk to you all Monday. Have a great weekend. Make sure you pass the buck when you can. She'll tie
