Speaker 1

You are entering the freedom hunt. Trump fires back at impeachment, a nasty fight over a gender transition case for a seven year old plus Prime Minister Justin Trudeau wins reelection, and more rich people in China than America that are more coming up. This is the buck Sexton Show, where the mission or mission is to decode what really matters with actionable intelligence. Make no mistake American great, You're a

great American Again the buck Sexton Show begins. Remember, no, I think they're lousy politicians, but two things they have. They're vicious and they stick together. They don't have Mitt Romney in their midst. They don't have people like that. They stick together. You never see them break off. He knew all about the whistle blow. Why didn't he say he's a crooked politician? Very bad for our country. This whole thing is very bad for our country. In the midst of that, I'm trying to get out of wars.

We may have to get into wars too, Okay, we don't have to get into worse. We're better prepared than we've ever been. If a RAMDA something, they'll be hit like they've never been hit before. I mean, we have things that we're looking at it. But can you imagine I have to fight off these low lives at the same time I'm negotiating these very important things that should have been done during Obama and Bush and even before that. All Right, So that's where we are right now. Welcome

to the buck Sexton the show. President Trump in our press conference yesterday, that was classic Trump, pulling no punches, holding back at all. It sounded a little bit there like he went from talking about Romney being a fifth column in the Republican Party essentially to knowing about the whistle blower. The whistle blower thing was Adam shift, just to be clear. So he's saying on the one side of it, that was a little bit unclear from the

way we set up that intro there. But from the one side, you have Romney, who's supposed to be on Trump's team to do important things for the Republican Party and for the United States. That's what you would expect from a Republican senator when you have a Republican president.

And there's no question that many of the things that Trump has done are right in line with traditional GOP platform, traditional GOP goals, and yet mit Romney spends most of his time, it seems, just taking cheap shots at the president talking about the president's character. And what's amazing is, does Mitt really think that he's the only one that

knows that President Trump has personal and character laws. I always think there's a degree of not just haughtiness, there's an arrogance really to some of the never Trump cabal in thinking that we don't recognize that people that support the president's agenda are not aware that he has had a an imperfect past. And then I don't want to cast too many aspersions because I think a lot of people have imperfect pasts. I mean, we found out that Mit Romney thinks that he should run around on Twitter

as Pierre de Lecto. Oh and don't worry, we will get to monsieur Trudeau winning re election to today or last night. We'll get to that what a what a slap in the face to sanity that was? That's right justin Trudeau part dieu. But Trump is tired of having to fight battles of Democrats never do on their own side. Yeah, sure there are disputes and there's pushback internally, but Democrats always keep they always keep their squabbles in the family

in House. No prominent Democrat ever went against Barack Obama. Certainly no Democrats were trying to destroy the Obama presidency. That would have been unthinkable. And Trump has to do that. And then he also has to do with shifty shift and this whole impeachment farce. You know, there's this new CNN poll among Republicans, six percent say they support impeaching and removing the Republican president also known as never trumpers.

So almost you know, let's say ninety four percent give or take a couple of points of the Republican Party is like, this is crazy, but there are still there's still that contingent. I can guarantee you that if you looked back at the Obama administration, there was never a point at which five percent of Democrats wanted to remove from office. Now, I know the Democrats say, oh, because Obama never done anything bad, Really, you need to go

over all of that. Now, I would say that President Obama really did exceed his authority and broke dow Down. Separation of power is laid out by the Constitution, but that those are political questions my opposition, and I'm sure for those of you watching or listening. Your political opposition

to Obamba was rooted in policy. It was not an effort to take this system and contort it and weaponize it to get something political that I could not get through the electoral process, which is all the Democrats are doing here. This is the kitchen sink approach. Let's impeach him after the special counsel. The special counsel wasn't enough in terms of its findings to impeach him, and now we have to deal with this. So I understand the

president's frustration. I understand why he's looking around saying, you have more people in the country right now who are employed than at any time I believe in the history of this country. Now, Oh yeah, here we go. Can we play please clip twenty four. Here's the President saying it after American, Hispanic, Asian, American have all set records the lowest unemployment in the history of our country, not

just like for fifty years. We have fifty one years for the country, and we're going to end up topping that number pretty soon. That'll be historic too, very soon if we keep going the way we're doing, I think we will because the household income is so incredible. The median household income. But if you look African American, Asian American, Hispanic American, in the history of our country, they have the best unemployment numbers, and they have the best employment numbers.

Today it was announced that we have the most people working in the history of our country, almost one hundred and sixty million. Bab. How do you beat me in a debate on those numbers. The answer is this whole impeachment circus. The answer is create a perception among the electorate that what's really happening in the country, what the government is doing, and just as importantly, in fact, in many ways more import what the government is not doing.

Should not be the discose, should not be the deciding factors in voting decisions. It's what the media, the establishment, the left wing Democrat progressive apparatus, tells you about this president. And no level of exaggeration is too much, No hysterical shrieks from Congress, all the way across the newsrooms of the major outlets across the country and different cable channels in Hollywood, that they can say the craziest stuff imaginable.

The President's a trader of the presidents and Nazie. The president's a white nationalist, all of these things without evidence, as I'll like to borrow their phrase, without evidence, and we're supposed to think that they have better judgment and would do a better job running the country. Well, there's even some concern among Democrats that's emerging right now that they don't have a front runner worthy of the name. Who's been saying that all along. Yeah, Joe Biden's not

inspiring the masses. What a shock. But we'll get into the possibility of new entrants, including of course, how wow, she's never going away. I keep telling you she's never ever going away. She will haunt your dreams, America. She's never leaving. But Trump, also, in his fighting back no surprise here, has given the Democrats something else to work with. So he tweeted today and this has caused a firestorm this morning. I mean, Trump tweets can direct an entire

news cycle. It's pretty astonishing. This is what he wrote. So someday, if a Democrat becomes president and the Republicans win the House, even by a tiny margin, they can impeach the president without due process or fairness or any legal rights. All Republicans must remember what they are witnessing here a lynching, but we will win. That was what the president tweeted. And of course this is being used as an opportunity to say the president is out of touch,

is a race is terrible because he used the term lynching. Now, this is where I say, I know I know enough about how this president operates that he's not looking to obey the dictates of the left on language. We all know that. But I also feel like his point here is getting now all chewed up and lost because of the choice of this one of this one word, which I think he had to know would set people off.

I also think, however, at least it's it's clear to me that the President of the United States uses certain words sometimes because he is told not to that he enjoys being told sorry, you know you can't do that, and then saying, you know what, I'm going to do it anyway. I think there's a defiance in him, which often is a useful thing for this president because he

won't obey the conventional wisdom. But sometimes you a situation like today where now we're going to have an all day long discourse on whether or not the president or anyone should be able to use the term lynching and in this manner, and now some of you are saying, Buck,

what about justice? Clarence Thomas referring to a high tech lynching during his confirmation battle, another vicious Democrat attempt to undermine and eminently decent and qualified human being for the post that he had and the responses you know is going to be well, Clarence Thomas is black. There are many on the left who claimed that Clarence Thomas has turned his back on the black community just because he is a conservative. That's also part of democrat the democrat

talking points. But now everyone's going to focus in on Trump and the impeachment situation and specifically the usage of this word. Lindsay Graham, however, agrees with Trump calling the impeachment process of engine. He says, quote, this is a lynching in every sense. This is un American. So Lindsay Graham is backing him up of this. You know, you never know what you're gonna get with Lindsay Graham. Sometimes he decides to man the bulwork alongside Trump. Sometimes he

just wants to invade another country. You don't really know which Lindsay Graham is going to show up on any given day. You know, now, we could have this discussion over the fact that lynching, which is primarily affected and it was a horrible part of American history, primarily affected African Americans in the South. But lynching actually was not was not exclusively used as an extra judicial murder tool against African Americans in the South. That was also used

in other cases and other places. But once again, the media finds an opportunity to distract or to push the conversation away from the core point here, which is that the country, by the numbers, is doing incredibly well the things that are supposed to matter of the economy. Trump has even managed to calm things down at the southern border.

Despite all of the objections and all the different stuff that Democrats have done on the hashtag resistance judiciary, he is doing a lot that is of benefit to the American people. Household income now adjusted for inflation, I think I saw today it's it's fifty seven thousand is now what it isn't just for inflation, compared to what it was into the Clinton administration when it was in the forties. So household income is way up. I mean, there's so

much to actually celebrate in the Trump presidency. Instead, what do we have impeach him, imprison him, investigate him, investigate his family members. This is toxic to politics. This is toxic to our ability to have discussions as adults across the country. And one of the most galling aspects of it all is that the very people that are pushing this toxicity, the left wing Democrats, claim to be the

ones defending our sacred institutions. They claim to be the ones that care about fairness and decency in political debates. They are delusional, my friend. But that is what Trump's arrangement syndrome does. It would have been great, but the Democrats went crazy, even though I would have done it free, save the country a lot of money. Then they say, oh, but you'll get promotion. Kids. You don't think I get enough promotion. I get more promotion than any human being

that's ever lived. I think I get I think I wouldn't have that. I think I can say that fairly safe. It's another part of this that you don't hear much about. We're always being told that the president is trying to enhance his brand and enrich himself. And the president is already a billionaire, and the president is already At this point, I think you could argue the most famous person on Earth. I mean, maybe there's some study that shows that it's

I don't know it's maybe it's Barack Obama. Maybe it's Michael Jordan or Lebron James, or some sports superstar I don't know, Christiano Ronaldo. For those of you that watch soccer, which is probably very few of you, you know, maybe there's someone is more recognizable. But I don't think at this stage of the game President Trump, what is He's seventy two years old, he really is that concerned with

burnishing the brand even more than he already has. But you can't make that argument because I'll just say Trump is greedy and he's not as rich as he says he is. And to this, I just point out they've always been unwilling to look at anything Trump does the way a normal person would look at it. This is what the emoluments clause argument, which they're bringing up once again in the G seven deal. Do we call it deralgate?

I don't think it's nearly important enough for that. But the G seven being hosted next year at Durral everyone's saying, well, this is another emoluments clause. This is just shows you they go and they go digging in the law books for something, or they go digging in the Constitution, whatever wherever it is. They go digging into statutes to try to find something that they can claim the president is doing that is a violation of them. I mean, they'll

they'll stretch them desperately. Perfect example, this was the Logan Act violation that was used at the pretext to throw General Flynn in prisident to ruin his career and almost, if not successfully or entirely bankrupt him. But you know, President Trump doesn't get credit for a lot of the things that he does do for a guy who's so so concerned with money. For example, I mean, he he pointed out and look, I'm not saying this is a

big thing, it's a game changer. But he does give away his entire salary producer Mark, can you just let the president have his say on this one? Six? But I give away my presidential salary. They say that no other president has done it. I'm surprised, to be honest with you. They actually say that George Washington may have been the only other president into But see whether or not Obama gave up his salary. See whether or not all of the other of your favorites give up this salary.

The enters, no, they say it's the only one. They think George Washington did, But they say no, So I give up a lot of money, four hundred and fifty thousand dollars. So for a guy that they say can be bought for the price of a diplomat buying a cheeseburger a Trump hotel, isn't it Isn't it worth noting? Isn't it worth just taking a moment to say that he doesn't give away a salary. And he also claimed he's going to do the G seven A Darrell And there's a part of me that feels like we shouldn't

even have to talk about this Jarrell nonsense. But it just goes to show you that everything that Trump does is a problem for these people. And then they blame us for not thinking that that must be the case. They blame us, and the left will say you must be a trump bot, you must be someone who has become deluded by your worship of this Trump figure. And I sit around just saying no, I'm sorry. I can't

reach the degree of hysteria. I can't get as upset about everything as liberals get about everything that President Trump does, every decision he makes, every tweet, they find a way anything of any consequence they find a way to make into the worst thing ever. Oh and even Trump speaking up for Tulse Gabbert was injuring play thirteen other trade deals that we've done. We've done South Korea, which is a fantastic deal for US, turned out even better than

we thought. South Korea was a terrible deal. The person in charge of that particular deal, Hillary Clinton, if you've heard of her, she's the one that's accusing everybody of being a Russian agent, anybody that as opposed to her as a Russian agent. So that's a scam that was pretty much put down. Telsey. I don't know telse, but she started a Russian agent. I don't know Jill Stein. I know she likes environment. I don't think she likes Russians. If she does like him, I know she's not an asset.

She called her an asset of Russian These people are sick because something wrong with that. But I think that Tulsea Gabbert probably got helped quite a bit by Asta. I think we would help because it shows for two and a half years we end up winning. I had to go through two and a half years. She would have done this earlier, people would have realized what a scam it is. Everybody's a Russian or a Russian agent

or a Russian asset. I see, they've still found ways to make use of some of the never trumpers that are out there. The Democrats are going to do everything they can to create the kind of internal feuding and political warfare that we've seen on display with Hillary Clinton and Tulsea Gabbert and some others. You still have these never I you know, should we give them any attention

or not? That's always the question. Is it worth refuting their nonsense or is it better if we just accept that they are irrelevant, that no one cares, and that we shouldn't have to deal with them in any capacity. I remember, I remember when Joe Walsh was a guy. First of all, he's a radio host, and I remember when he was really too right wing for CNN, which doesn't say all that much, but also too inflammatory for

television sometimes in what he would say about Obama. And now he is mister ethics and mister Trump is a bad guy. Listen to me about it. Here's alleged Republican primary opponent for Trump, Joe Wallace, talking about how it's not just him. A lot of Republicans hate Trump late twenty two. It's really important to note, though, I need to say this, Republicans don't like him. Republicans in Congress, they don't like him. They don't fear him, they don't

respect him. They do believe he's incompetent. They do believe he's a moron. Everything I say about Trump publicly, the vast majority of my colleagues up on Capitol Hill they feel the same way about him. Privately. They don't fear Trump, but they fear Trump's voters. I was campaigning in Iowa all weekend, and even just talking to Republican voters on the ground in Iowa, they were even bothered by this Drell thing, the g seventh thing. The best that they

could say was it doesn't look good. So Republicans in Congress stay fear Trump's voters, and Trump's voters were bothered by what Trump did that will move them. This is analysis that no one needs to hear, really, or perhaps it's analysis that's so obvious, why is this guy on TV or wherever he is saying it? But there are some aspects of it that I think are worthy of

our attention for a moment. For example, Republicans hate Trump, he says, well, he means Republican elected officials and Republican elected officials, members of Congress and the GOP are afraid of Trump's voters. Good they should be responsive to what Republican voters want. This should not be about a club of guys up on Capitol Hill who get to lord over the rest of us, determine what is best for the what the real party message should be, what the

real gaims of the party should be. They're supposed to serve the American people who voted for them. We don't put them there to be our overlords. We don't put them there to give us dictation from up on the mountaintop. We're supposed to be watching them enact policy. They are. They're the vessels of the aspirations of conservatism and the right. They are not the wise elder statesman that we should

all just sit around and be lectured by all the time. Look, a lot of members of Congress are just not very smart and not very impressive. That's shore on both sides of Republicans and Democrats. The best thing they can do is keep their promises to voters, the voters that put them there, stay as honest as they can to the platforms that got them elected. And as we know, a lot of people go to DC and they become swamp creatures. I just left DC. I'm still washing some of the

swamp off me. I was never a lobbyist or anything, but you know what I'm saying, It's very easy to want to be a part of the power set there. It's very easy to want to be a part of the club that gets to make decisions and determinations about what the future of the country is like and feel as though you are separated from a majority, or perhaps the entirety, of the voters who gave you that power

in the first place. So that Republican members of Congress don't like Trump is relevant in terms of I don't care that they don't like him, but it is relevant in so far as it lets us know that they care more, many of them, about their feelings about this man than what he is doing for the Republican Party and therefore for the American people, which brings you back

to my discussion yesterday. And Trump is clearly aware of this, that there are elements within the Republican system, right within the Republican machinery, that aren't only up that it's not They're allowed to not like anyone's allowed to hold opinion they want about anybody. You're allowed to not like Trump. That's fine, But if you're going to be a part of the Republican Party, you should not be working actively behind the scenes to undermine the leader of that party.

And I do believe there are many Republicans who are doing that. I don't know how many, and I don't know to what extent, but we're just aware of what we say. I mean. Obviously, Mitt Romney is quite open about it. There are others too, who have decided that they cannot be members of the GOP and good Standing anymore. They will not work to assist this president in these key endeavors. Right. They'd rather talk about how the president tweets mean things and says mean things and isn't nice enough.

And it's not just the people like Joe Walsh who want to discuss that, because really what they're hoping is is to create the perception among Republican lawmakers that there's enough leeway within the party faith full for some of them to maybe go along with impeachment. I don't think it'll be successful, but I do believe that is what Democrats and their media allies, or is it the media and their Democrat allies, whichever way you decide, I do

think that is what's going on here. Senator Michael Bennett, for example, Okay, Michael Bennett, play a clip fifteen. If you would, you have a lot of private conversations with your Republican colleagues. I know because you work across the island the Senate. I'm not going to ask you to break any confidence you would have with them, But but I'm curious, are you hearing more private expressions of support for removing this president then we hear publicly from the

Republican side. I would not say privately that I'm yet hearing private expressions of support, but I am hearing private expressions of people saying they're horrified by the president's behavior, and they're horrified that he invited Ukraine to interfere in our elections. They're horrified that the White House Chief of Staff admitted that it was a quid pro quo. You're Horror Friday, You're Horror Fridays, this the other guide, this

the other thing. And Ukraine, I mean, you just said you mightn't get the information and the guy who voted for this guy. That's a question that I would like answered.

And noticed the sleight of hand there. He didn't say what was said on the phone call, which is the President asked Ukraine to be helpful in an ongoing open DJ investigation of the twenty sixteen election interference, and also to get answers as to whether there's anything relating to Hunter Biden and Joe Biden insofar as that investigation is duly constituted an ongoing Instead, he says, oh, that they

invited election interference. You see what you'll eventually hear and whatever the Inspector General report, it's really actually the Durham report out of Connecticut about the origins of the Russia collusion, the Russia collusion conspiracy, which is what it was. It

was a true against the president. When you hear that, you'll be told I can almost guarantee you that it was entirely That whole investigation is illegitimate and they've already laid the groundwork for that now by saying that any discussion in the open by the President or others about

that investigation is election interference. Meanwhile, having a foreigner Christopher Steele, collect foreign subsources all over the former Soviet Union, including Ukraine, and run that to our own press and through our own intelligence community to Obama administration appointees who use faiza warrants against Trump campaign, against a Trump campaign official, that's all fine. You're supposed to think that that's not a

problem at all. These people are are laughable in their lack of consistency, but we have to take them very seriously in their efforts to destroy and undermine this presidency that much they have set their minds to, and unfortunately, I think they'll be far too They are far too dedicated in this process to ever recognize the damage that they are doing to the country. Along the way here we have Oh I did want to get to this as well. You had Beto O'Rourke who did get a

little bit. There is such a thing as too crazy, even for Democrats these days. It's rare, it doesn't happen all that often, but it does happen. It's pretty interesting. Beto O'Rourke, who has been comparing Trump to Nazi Germany and to Gerbel's was asked about this, and here's how Boto responded, Play sixteen. Please, is that not going too far to make a comparison between the president of the

United States and the Nazis. Find me a better analogy of another leader of a Western democracy describing all people of one religion as inherently defective or disqualified or dangerous. And that's what the President has done. But you understand the criticism when you make any compared to the Holocaust and the Nazis, that you know that that is simply at least most people say that is unacceptable. It's the

comparison of last resort. And that's where we are. And I don't mean the last resort politically or the last resort in terms of defeating the president in November, but the last resort for this country that is descending into an open racism and intolerance and violence led by the president. Now, whether he said, whether it's what he said about Muslims or immigrants, or the way he treats women of color in this country, or the fact that he described klansmen

and Neo Nazis as very fine people. He's just a liar, he's just making he's just living in some alternate reality. The President did not describe the people at the at the Neo Nazis and Charleispell was very fine people. I've read the transcript dozens of times. He did not do it. The immedia keeps saying it because they want to talk about a big lie and a repetition of a big lie.

That is a big lie. The immedia keeps saying something that is demonstrably false and untrue, and they know it's untrue, but they're so desperate to make this president beyond the pale you cannot support him without being a bad person, that they'll just lie about stuff. They will just lie. That is a lie. What better or work just says a lot. I think he knows that, but he doesn't care. Also what he says describing people of one religion as

dangerous or defective? When did the president do that? When did you describe people of one religion as dangerous or defective? He's never done that. This is always Democrats complain about what Trump says, and then they always offer us up an interpretation of what Trump says instead of the actual words. If what the President says is so bad, why don't we just hear about what the president said? Why is it always the Democrat? So in other words, remember that

BBC lady with Jordan Peterson. What chord are they saying? In other words, no, how about just what President Trump says. There's a desperation growing, a desperation among the Democrats because they've got to know that these candidates they have, Oh Warren is there? Is there Technocrat. Warren's the one who's supposed to lead them to the promised land of a

twenty twenty election victory over Donald Trump. They won't, they won't pull the rug out from more Joe Biden just yet, but they're starting to get a little a little nervous about it. The more we look into Elizabeth Warren, the more clear it is that she is quite radical. She's not a centrist Democrat. She's a radical left left of Obama even Democrat. That's the that's going to be the unifying independent winning Ohio, Florida, Michigan, Pennsylvania winning candidate for

the Democrats, Elizabeth Warren. The more we find out about what she really thinks and believes. Well, a few things become clear. One is that she hasn't really even thought through the implications of some of the things she said she wants to do to transform the country. And people also now realize Bernie Sanders just had a heart attack. The guys, he's too old for this, his health is

not in good enough shape for this. So there's a quiet transfer I think of aspirations on the left Elizabeth Warren that has been ongoing, and the media has been warming up to her a little bit, and we're going to forget about the whole on one one twenty fourth Cherokee, So that means I'm a Native American. That was a thing that she did that no one made her do. We're gonna forget about that whole thing. But we can't forget about some of the other policies and ideas that

she puts out there. And I think that that's also why you have this panic among Democrats, Well, what if none of the twenty candidates we started out with can get it done against Trump. I think there are a lot of Democrats who do not think that they can psychologically handle and I don't mean a lot, like just a few prominent Democrat politicians, I mean millions of Democrats across the country would have some kind of a nerve breakdown of Trump won former years in office. I think

that's the level of hysteria. And it's even someone like Beto Rourke talking about the this is the analogy of last resort, comparing Trump to a regime that killed millions and millions of people, men, women and children, put them in gas chambers, executed them. I mean, just the worst things, the worst crimes against humanity and history. He's comparing that to Donald Trump. He's either a more hon or a psycho. I mean, betto Oh my gosh, why do you say

such mean things? Well, because it's true. It's a bizarre thing for someone to say, and someone to then double down on afterwards. But that's where Beto is. This is still violent portal just last year, no other country. In the forty thousand gun debts, he says a very large number of those are actually First of all, it's not forty thousand. I don't know why he keeps saying a number that's not correct. A very large number of those

are suicides. By the way, this country is still racist at its core, Becheo Roark says, and this is a guy who was entirely a construct of the media. He was supposed to be able to beat Ted Cruz in Texas. Remember that more money poured into that guy, Beto O'Rourke's effort to unseat Ted Cruise in Texas than any other senate race in history. They're just funneling money. This guy, he's entirely a construct of the elite echelon of the

Democrat Party, and he just says crazy stuff. He just says things that are unfair, that are unethical, that aren't based in any objective reality. But it's also a really

it's also really sad. It's sad that there are so many people on the left who would rather believe, they would rather believe that this country is an example of evil racism on the world stage, instead of a country where you have tremendous diversity of religion, ethnicity, diversity of every kind, and by and large we actually get along very well. You start to compare us to other what's a country similar to America and its makeup that gets along so much better than we do and where there's

so much less racism. I think that Democrats always take a little too much pride in talking down to their country and downgrading their country and the way they speak about it, instead of understanding that they are so lucky to be here. We are all so lucky, we who are Americans, to be in this country at this time

of relative peace and booming prosperity. And Democrats, in their just lust for power, will lie about the United States of America and come up with some way to make it sound like this country is in a state of dysfunction and despair. That is just not true, But Democrats are going to try to convince everybody that it is true for the next twelve months. Why is the left trying so hard to eradicate gender? Why is this campaign now gaining so much momentum, so much attention, a lot

of force behind it. Every time now you look at a major news website, you open a newspaper, if you still read things old school like that, you see more and more stories that are advancing this agenda. For example, Always, a company that makes female sanitary products, has decided that they're going to remove Venus. The symbol for women are taken from the god Venus aphrodite. In Greek, Venus in

ancient Rome. They're going to remove that because they don't want it to be feel exclusive or exclusionary of trans individuals. So now a company that makes a product explicitly to deal with the female reproductive system wants to remove the symbol of femaleness from it because of the desire for inclusiveness. The NPR of the Weekend shared this, On average, people who menstruate spend an estimated one hundred and fifty million dollars a year just on the sales tax for tampons

and pads. To this, I responded on Twitter, is the word women being canceled because there's a word for people who menstruate. It's a very handy, very useful word we've used for a long time, and it's quite descriptive, called women. But now you will see, and I'm not making this up, you will see propaganda online from particularly the left wing journo class, where they will be shouting down people saying things like men have periods. Two. This has become an

article of faith on the left. This has become something that we will hear about men have periods too. Unfortunately, that is scientifically false, that is inaccurate. Men do not get periods, women get periods. In fact, this is one of the very basic biological distinctions that exists that separate

men from women. You've also had this week a transgender cyclist named Rachel McKinnon, who is dominating female sprints cycling, set a world record thirty seven years old, same age as me, set a world record for the thirty five thirty nine age category in the two hundred meters sprint on a cycling bike. So this is just some This is somebody who is biologically male, who is beating. And I mean if you look at look at this individual is built. Yes, has has died? Oh? I don't know.

Do I have to Am I going to run a foul of the PC police? So I have to say her? We have to let people pick their pronouns, now right, That's what we're always told. Am I going to get in trouble for this? It's a it's a hymn, it's a man physically can change the name. Rachel is this person's name, no question, You can change your name. Do you get to change your pronouns? Though? Because you say so?

At some point we might be forced to bend the knee at some point the corporate world may say, sorry, you have to do what is new in the English language for the millennia or for the centuries. I should say that it has been around in its current form. Is it is new to do this, but you better do it or else you better comply, or else there will be consequences. I don't I don't plan on running up the side of the hill and getting you know,

getting struck down on this one. Someone has to let me know what the real what the real rules are. But this transgender individual is defeating everybody. And it's no surprise because male biology is different than female biology. And we can sit around and people can say that's mean, or that's insensitive, it's unfeeling. How could you? How could you say these things? It's just the truth. But increasingly you find that a lot of people do not want the truth. A lot of people on the left reject

the truth. They think the truth is mean, and if it's mean, or if it doesn't make them feel good, then it should be subverted, it should be contradicted, it should be banned, it should be outlawed. Transgender cyclist Rachel McKinnon is dominating female sports because transgender individuals, if the left gets its way, means the end of mail sports. That's quite a plan for female empowerment, isn't it. Women can no longer compete just against other women. They will

have to compete against biological males. Ten years ago, when this was raised during the earlier days of the transgender activist movement, we would be told that this was fearmongering to say this. I remember because I was a part of those conversations. I remember debating this issue. Discussing this issue, we would say, Oh, but you're going to have ten year olds who think that their female start to use the women's women's locker room and restrooms at a school.

Oh no, that won't happen. Oh actually, the Obama administration mandated that it would happen in public schools or else you would lose federal funding. So that's how quickly that turned around. Oh but you would never have someone who's a biological male competing and say a contact and really dangerous combat sport like mixed martial arts. Oh no, that

happened too, What a surprise. The logical male who competes against women in MMA is not only able to beat them, but it's dangerous to those women, It is truly dangerous to them to step into the ring with that individual. So you have to wonder, well, what's left here? Oh, we have reached. We have reached now the latter stage

of the transgender movements extremism. And we see this playing out in the case of a seven year old boy in Texas, not in California, not in Massachusetts or New York or I'm doing this show right now in Texas,

in Dallas, no less. Jeffrey Younger is a father in Dallas who is trying to stop his former partner, his former I believe former wife, although I'm not even sure if they were officially married, but to stop his former partner, doctor Anne George Alis, from transitioning their seven year old boy, James, into a female, and doing so involving chemical castration and hormone replacement therapy. This is child abuse. This is wrong.

It's medically wrong, it's scientifically wrong, it is ethically wrong. And yet a jury has decided that doctor George Julius, who does any want to guess if she's a far left, you know, pro transactivist individual. I think we all know the answer to that. Doctor George Alis should be able to continue on with this quest to transition a seven year old boy. And I'm not just saying transition, as in speak to this boy with female pronouns and make

him wear dresses. And now they want a seven year old boy to take hormone replacement therapy, to take puberty blockers, which, as I've said to you before, nobody really knows the long term effect of this, because there haven't been any studies of this, because nobody would have thought twenty years ago or ten years ago that the medical world would be so radicalized that anyone would even think about doing this.

But here we are. I want to tell you the story of Jeffrey Younger and his battle to save his son James from transgender transgender activism at seven years old. So here's what we know of this case of Jeffrey Younger, the father who is desperately trying through the courts to stop the mother of James, the young boy who they have joint custody of, to stop doctor Anne Georgilus from

transitioning him, transitioning young James into Luna. My understanding of this case, and I listened to a lengthy interview that that was done here of Jeffrey younger, where he explained what had happened. Essentially, James the seven year old liked the movie Frozen, and doctor George Julius thought that it would be a good thing to start affirming James as

a female. Now there is a very clear, a very clear repetition here, a very clear tendency where the only people who have kids who are transitioning to female or they believe are trans Remember seven years old, I wanted to be at Tri Sarah Tops when I was seven. There are a lot of things you think when you're seven that don't or should not be should not be taken seriously by adults. Adults determined that you should go to school, what you should eat, when you should go

to bed. There are reasons for those things. Oh, but here because this is really the last This is really the last vestige of what had been untouched by transactivism up to this point. This is the final frontier. If you will, let's are transitioning little kids, make them transgender. Let's have affirmation as determined with court mandates behind it. Mind you of a seven year old, this is insane,

This is wrong. Any normal person, absent all the propaganda, absent all the CNN tweets about how this is so important for you know, for affirming one's identity, and transgenderism is a beautiful thing to be celebrated by everybody. And if you don't approve of this, or you even let's just say this, there's a whole separate conversation to be had about whether someone when they're eighteen, if they think they're transgender, or if they if they are trans Remember

it is think. It's not a biological reality. So don't ever get it mixed up with intersects. Sometimes I'll try to play that game. They'll move it around. Oh but what about people that are born with some reproductive organs of both, that's intersects. That's not what we're talking about. We're talking about people that have a psychological distinction that they think they are born in the wrong body. You know, there's also a psychological this or they called gender dysphoria.

Now it's called gender affirmation. It was called gender dysphoria. There's also a psychological disorder where individuals believe fervently to the point of demanding surgery, that they should not have a certain limb, and they will demand modern medicine, they'll demand that doctors will remove. You know, this arm that I have, I shouldn't have it. I do not want to have this arm. I need this arm to be removed.

People say, well, that's not a fair comparison. Really is destroying all of your body's hormonal balance, which, by the way, just putting this out there, they're gonna do this to a seven year old. When they do this to a adults, there are terrible long term health consequences and the outcomes overall, and everyone, oh, no, one ever, you know, I want

to talk about this. You know, there was one doctor at Johns Hopkins University who was head of essentially the sex change operation, which they don't call it that anymore, it's gender affirmation. He was out of the sex change operation part of Johns Hopkins University Hospital in Baltimore. And he's just been run out of the public square effectively. He's not because he did this for twenty years. And

he'll he would tell people he wrote articles. I've read them where he says, look, long term prognosis here for

people who have this surgeon is not good. Very high rates of depression, high rates of suicide, and the basic health risks that you take you know, blood clots, and you know, just messing with all kinds of internal hormonal regulatory systems, and you know weight gain and obesity comes with it and all just all kinds of you know, I think there's the risks of disease increase in so many ways because you're messing with the internal chemistry of

your body. No one really knows if this is how to do this properly, because you're not supposed There is no proper way to do this. You're not supposed to do this. There's no way to do this in a in a sense that doesn't or in a manner that does not have dramatically negative and that's for adults. You're not going to do this with a seven year old.

You start giving them puberty blockers. This is disgraceful. But this is the problem with what starts and on lefting websites and what you see in the media, and you know, this show Transparent, and there's all these different efforts out there to convince people that not only is transgenderism something that should have legal protection, but it must be affirmed by everybody else. It's not enough for you to say, all right, you do you I'm going to do my

own thing over here. No, they want they require the leftist activists of transgender and require that you abandon your religious beliefs, abandon which you think is good for your own child in this case, and you have to sing along with the chorus claiming that this is a fantastic thing, This is a joyous thing. We should all throw a party because a seven year old is going to be affirmed in his now her they say gender. This is

not an exaggeration. The court in Dallas, up to this point has enjoined this father, Jeffrey Younger, that he is not allowed to dress his son in boy's clothing. Not allowed contempt of court if he does that. He's not allowed to try and convince his son that he is in fact a boy and will be a normal boy and everything is fine. Not allowed to do that. Not allowed to have the son around anybody who also tries so. He can't have another friend or family member who says, hey,

young James, you're seven years old. You know you're a boy. Just give it some time and let's talk this through. Not allowed to do that. Has to use female pronouns or gender neutral pronouns in public. This is by court order I was stunned as I was reading through this last night, stunted. This is in Dallas, Texas for those of you out there, and I get this. I get your emails, I get your messages. Who think, oh the crazy stuff buck that mostly that's not going to come

to you know, my town I live. I live in Nebraska, I live in Texas. You know I live in in Indiana. Things here are a little more sane. Mm. Sorry. That's why they always go at this from the media level, national level. They want federal judges to enforce this stuff. They want this to be top down. You're not allowed to have the choice. And so now we have a circumstance where this father and I just would I'd be so curious to speak to people on this jury and

just want to know how brainwashed they've been. They've given, or I believe they're about to give. Today we'll find out full custody to doctor George Julius to make sure that young James is transitioned into a female. Oh, by the way, by court order, James's father is not allowed to call him James has to call him Luna. Not

allowed that his legal name is James. On his birth certificate on any documentation now has to be called Luna because because the mom says so, mister Younger had asked to be the sole managing conservatorship of not just this boy, but also there's a there's a twin as well, and the court denied that. And they've also denied James's or denied the father's efforts here to stop the puberty blockers and craw sex hormones that are going to happen here. By the way, accord to the Mayo Clinic, this is

a helpful list. I was trying to think of this before. Possible side effects of feminizing cross sex hormone therapy. This is Remember that this is for adults, because who would think you'd do this to a kid. Here are the side effects for adults. Deep veined blood clot high triglycerides, gallstones, weight gain, elevated liver function, decreased libido, erectile dysfunction, infertility, high blood pressure, type two diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and excessive

prolactin in the blood. That's for adults. What do you think the endocrine system of a seven year old will do in reaction to this? And the court that is going along with this should be ashamed. The judge who is a left wing female should be ashamed. None of them are. In fact, the media will celebrate this. They will celebrate destroying this young boy's life. You know why, He's just a sacrifice for the cause. It doesn't matter if this ruins his life, if he's miserable, if it

ruins his health, mental and physical. They have to establish that transgenderism is just as natural and just as as normal as anything else that a young boy or girl could decide to do. That's what this is about. From coast to coast to coast, Tonight, Canadians rejected division and negativity. You are sending our liberal team back to work, back to Ottawa with a clear mandate. We will make life

more affordable. We will continue to fight climate change, we will get guns off our streets, and we will keep investing in Canadians. And tonight we chose to move Canada forward. Tonight, Canadians have charted a path for the future and I

know we will walk it together. Monsieur Justin Trudeau, who does not sound like this, but we like to pretend here on the Bucks Extent show, he probably sounds like me when I'm not doing any accent really if we're going to be fair, except he says, and it is a little more, even more polite than me, which is really polite is you're justin Trudeau. He is a the Prime Minister off Canada. Once again, there's some there's the good news and bad news that comes out of this.

I want to start with the good news. The good news, let's do that. Start with the good news. Is that it's gonna be really hard, in my opinion, for Canadians to liberal Canadians, you know, smug left wing Canadians to look down on us in the United States for having a president who's a little out of the mainstream, a

little a little different, eccentric, egocentric and eccentric, right. I think that'll be a tougher cell now for Canada, like, oh, we have such stuffisticated politics and Canada, look at our Prime minister Trudeau, he's the true statesman. M I don't know about that. Do you think that it would have been possible for an American Republican probably already know Northam. Northam got away with this. I would say that that

Northam's thing was a lot longer ago. Trudeau's was not very long ago, and multiple instances of dressing in blackface.

One of the one of the frustrations I think a lot of us have is we recognize if you were an American Republican politician, not only would your career be ruined based on the photos that we saw of Trudeau, but it would also you'd have to be very concerned about whether you were employable at any kind of job and keeping with your skill set, you know you would be you would be probably relegated to very menial work

and you might have to change your name. Okay, that's the real That would be the reality for an American Republican politician. For a Democrat, it would be considered a hit, but you know, you probably still keep your job, and as long as you apologized and made sure that you know you were on the good side of planned parenthood and the woke police in Hollywood, you would probably be okay. Right. That's so there's there's that component of this that's annoying.

That's annoying because you know, we would like to either have greater forgiveness and less insanely harsh rules about this stuff, or everyone or everyone has to live under the same rules. But what the left has managed to create is that the rules that the left lives under are different the rules that the right lives under. And that's the worst scenario. That is the worst circumstance, right, Because that that hypocrisy then just it just festers within our political discourse. Oh

so they can get away with stuff. Truneau can be like, I am going to take zaguns off the streets and I'm going to make sure the climate change is defeated, the big, bad, terrible climate change. Maybe we should maybe I should be like, let's gonna say Pierre Trudea, but I think that was his dad. We'd have to come up with, you know, Jean Paul Trudeau. Justin Trudeau's alter ego, he's slightly more Canadian French, very tough, very strong, where's

the lumberjack shirts, cuts down the big trees. But Trudeau has managed to win out. Another part of this I think is interesting is that he I think, as from what I saw last night, at least in the polls, he lost the popular vote. He got less votes in total than his competitor did. And yet because of the way their parliamentary system works, he in fact has cobbled together the majority necessary to be the prime minister. Here the New York Times called it justin Trudeau's anemic victory,

that he just eked out a win. Here's some of the background on this. Neither the Conservative Party nor the New Democratic Party to the Green Party had any lead. You in the hopper who seemed to be able to compete with Kennedy esque mister Trudeau. Oh that's quite a description. Who scored photoshoots in Vogue and his own comic book cover. He should have been untouchable for an election or two at least, And yet on Monday, mister Trudeau's government was

reduced to a minority. His party lost the popular vote to the Conservatives. Canada's electoral map is now disturbingly divided between the liberal dominated east of the country and the conservative dominated west. Mister Trudeau will likely to pend on the support of other parties to keep his hold in power. So there you have it, my friends, This is a close,

a close one for Trudeau. But it does raise this issue of when when do we get to say that if they're going to have rules where you get a second chance, we have to have rules where you get a second chance. If violations of politically correct conduct in one's back background, stretching back for years, maybe even decades. If that's going to be not a disqualifier for liberals, then I think we have to make sure it's not a disqualifier for conservatives either, and that means a refusal

to submit to the dictates of political correctness. Yeah, I mean people, obviously, people when they I always say this, you don't apologize because the outrage mob comes from you. Apologize if you mess up, if you did something wrong. I mean, Trudeau clearly messed up. So people should still make amends based on their own their own actions and the need to have integrity and to be honorable or

try to restore some honor. But we're never going to get to a fair place, a level playing ground in politics or in public life if this is able to continue. I mean, you know this, no Republican would have been able to stay in public life after this photos came out of Justin Trudeau. And yet the liberals of Cana And I know Canada's different country from America, but come on, Canada's like America, Junior. Let's be serious. You know it's

right there. They speak, They speak American pretty much they're right there close by. Are there's some Canadians to listen to the show right now. They're furiously they're they're wiping the maple syrup off their fingers, putting aside the hockey stick and furiously typing at me that how dare how dare you? Sir? Eh? Compare Canada to Americans? Say it's America, junior. We love Canadians. You guys are like our cousins to the north. But Justin Trudeau, man, we knew this was

gonna have. I told you he's gonna wits. It's not even gonna matter that he's that. There's such a fraudulence. Really, too much of the lecturing and the social justice posturing. Do you think Justin Trudeau, and I know this is more just me postulating here, do you think Justin Trudeau would have been someone who was forgiving and showed grace in response to someone else in politics having the fun? No,

I don't think so at all. And I think that that's really part of a liberal mind, that they don't see their own conduct, even when it violates their own standards, is somehow always more justifiable the conduct of the other, though, must be destroyed. The conduct of the other must be punished to the most severe degree imaginable and possible. I was President Trump last night did tweet out, obviously if I can find it real quick, he tweeted out a

congratulations to Justin Trudeau. There was nothing in it that was snarky or that looks sarcastic. But I do think that Trump particularly enjoyed, especially because the media in this country is always saying all these terrible things about him. Have they have they changed their minds about Justin Trudeau,

the man who dressed in blackface so many times. Megan Kelly was fired from her job because she said that back in the day, some people would like have their kids dressing up as a as a character and that that wasn't you know there. She tried to just get into the nuance of black face as a discussion and was fired and the libs were all set up. Yep. Sorry, you know, can't have anybody who doesn't understand how serious

black face is as an offense. Jimmy Kimmel used addressed in black faces Karl Malone on his show, and actually it was painted his face black, painted his entire body black, and no sanctions against him now again. I'm fine with people being able to say I'm sorry, you know what I did was inappropriate, I've moved on, I've grown, I'm better, or whatever, but that has to be open to all of us. We cannot. You know, we're gonna need a

divorce from liberal America soon. If they continue to think that they can have one set of rules and we will have another. That's gonna be a problem for us. It already is a problem, but it's just gonna keep getting worse and worse because they over time they embrace,

they normalize the hypocrisy. That becomes the standard. The standard is that they can be hypocritical, and that people that agree with us ideologically, you and me, even if you're a private citizen, you might have to be sacrificed on the funeral pyre of wokeness at some point that may happen to you. I'd rather readdress this now and understand that people make mistakes, people say stupid things, do stupid things.

Contrition should be always be weighed in these in these situations, and you know, we should all try to be as forgiving of each other as we possibly can. Doesn't mean living a life without consequence, but I mean its being forgiven, being forgiving when there's room for forgiveness, instead of this situation where Trudeau gets forgiven. Nothing Trump ever does, for example, will be forgiven by our media or the Canadian media,

which is I would note, pretty obsessed with Trump. Sometimes I see what's going on in study his Canadian websites. You think, like Trump is a bigger deal than anything going on in their own country. You know, Trump is this larger than life figure next door. So Trudeau wins the Prime ministership by a hair, by his perfectly quiff error because he's mister liberal, handsome man that will just

get away with everything going forward. Apparently, my friends, do you agree then with Senator mckessie, that would have been inappropriate to withhold the military aid and unless this political investigation was pursued, George, I'm telling you what I was involved with. I'm telling you what I saw transpiring and how President Trump was working to make the evaluation about

whether it was appropriate to provide this assistance. But that's what I'm what I'm asking is would it be appropriate to condition that, George, I'm not going to get into hypotheticals and secondary things based on someone what someone else has said, George, you would have never done it when you were a spokesman. I'm not going to do it, except it's not hypothetical. We saw the chief of staff

the act. It is George, you just said if George, you just said, if this happened, that is by definition hypothetic. The chief of staff said it did. The chief of staff meaning Mory, you asked me. The chief of staff meaning Mulvaney here was trying to say that there was a corruption investigation based quid pro quo component of reviewing the aid that we give to Ukraine. Now, I know that that's a complicated way of describing it, or that seems like a lot of words. But what the Democrats

keep saying is just not true. Their version of what transpired in that conversation. They always changed the words around. They do what Adam shifted. Let me pretend that I'm telling you what was said when I'm really saying something else. And what I'm saying are things that are more damaging than what the president said. This is the game that

they play. Now it's a very dangerous one. I would note that not only did this come up in the context of a Secretary State Pompeo talking to George's Stephanopolis, but also Mitt Romney mit taking a moment to back away from Pierre de Lecto, friend of Justin Trudau. Maybe maybe that's who. Maybe my Justin Trudeau is actually Pierre de Lecto, internet roll and Canadian man of mystery. Remember that was Mitt Romney's alter ego online that we've all

discovered in the last couple of days. Because when you're a sitting United States senator worth hundreds of millions of dollars, yeah, you need a sock puppet Twitter account to snark at people and to pump up your own reputation online. Just seems crazy to me. But secondary State Pompey was talking about the possibility of that hypothetical. Mitt Romney, meanwhile, is trying to be as unhelpful to President Trump as possible play clip twenty, going on TV and saying, China, will

you investigate my political opponent? Is wrong? It's a mistake. It was shocking for the in my opinion, for the president to do so, and a mistake for him to do so. I can't imagine coming to a different point of view. We certainly can't have presidents asking foreign countries to provide something of political value that is, after all, against the law, something of political value against the law. Oh, we're back to the pretense that we're gonna make this

a campaign finance violation there, mid Romney. That's never gonna stand up. That's never gonna work. And the request for an investigation. I thought Democrats were obsessed with this. I thought they loved this idea. Oh yeah, we need to investige me to get the facts. You need to find out everything that's going on here. A request for an investigation is not elicit if there's a basis for the investigation.

We just went through a special Council on a with a faulty basis, and now they're lecturing us about elicited investigations for political purposes. Does any serious person really believe that the Special Council wasn't a giant gift to the Democrats. And then basis for it was was lies, the dossiers, lies, the way that they set up Papadopoulos and Carter Page. This was all. This is all a scam, a conspiracy hunter Biden getting a billion dollars out of China because

his dad was vice president. I mean, I didn't think you're allowed to look at that. I think people would ask questions about this. I do not accept a lot of Republicans that are out there saying this. I do not accept that just because a Biden does it means you can't investigate it. And I also don't accept that just because you are an investigation that is rooted in a reasonable suspicion that would negatively affect Joe Biden, you're

not allowed to do that. The Obama administration was investigating Donald Trump while he was a candidate. There's there's no political benefit there, I mean, are you kidding me? By the way, speaking of quid pro quos, only have about a minute for this one. But um, they had said this, Oh, you can't have quid pro quos in foreign policy. I pointed this out yesterday. Elizabeth Warren had a quid pro quo here that she discussed pushing around the state of Israel.

Producer Mark, please play clip two. Actually about yeah right now says that he is going to take Israel in a direction of increasing settlements that does not move US toward a two states solution. It is the official policy of the United States of America to support a two states solution. And if Israel is moving in the opposite direction, then everything is on the table, and be prepared. Everything is on the table. Everything is on the table, including

cutting off a day Israel. If they don't do what we say, we're going to cut off eight that's right, not just to the millionaires and the billionaires, We're going to cut it off to all of Israel. Okay, that sounds like a quid pro quo in foreign policy to me, do what we say or else we're gonna take away your money. So it does happen all the time. Oh, I'm glad we can establish that there was a quid pro quo. Yeah, happens all the time, and quid pro

quos have lots of benefits for lots of people. But it was fun for Democrats for a week or so to act like that was unheard of. Oh, how could you try to bully this foreign country into doing your bidding with our money? That's why we give them maid.

Let's talk about the movie Joker. Shan't we Joker was something that we were told was going to be an invitation to violence, that the movie Joker would be something that as we going forward look at you know, the history of movies out there and how they could inspire violence. It would be one of the ones that you'd have to think about right away. There was a lot of really fevered speculation about how this movie was going to lead to terrible stuff. Nothing happened, of course, I saw

the movie. I just want to share a few thoughts on this. I don't do a lot of movie reviews on the show. I rarely go to movies. I will say this. I went to movie theater and they had a signed seats and the seats producer Mark, have you have you had this experience? I grew up going to movies with my parents all the time in New York, and I couldn't see over the person's head in front of me. You were packed in there, shoulder to shoulder, not enough legro on. The seats were kind of gross,

smelled like stale popcorn and twizzlers. You know. It just wasn't a pleasant experience really, But you had no choice if you want to see a movie in the theaters. This movie, this chair reclined, It was a signed seating. This is very common now. But this is common now. Yeah, this is everywhere. This is my first not as much in Manhattan, though a lot of the theaters in Manhattan are still those old theaters because they're gonna sell tickets no matter what. They're in the middle of the city.

But there's still all the signed seats. Now. Yeah, this was my first ever experience in this new era of comfortable seats and big comfortable seats that recline and a sign seating too, because one of the things I always hated was when you walk in the theater, especially if you're there with somebody or with a group of friends and you're trying to find a place to sit down or you can't find anywhere to sit. That's not an

issue now. It's like you're at a baseball game. You go to your seat, go to you know, M fifteen can chaw up on time. You don't have to watch all the previews if you don't want to. Yes, there are a lot of previews. There are. There's so many previews, too many. That was a thing recently where they were talking about there there were too many. It was like thirty minutes of previous Man, I was sitting there all day look in the previews the movies at one o'clock.

It's really one I can't even remember all all. I can remember those that the Star Wars preview looks terrible. Dude, looks terrible. I'm not a Star Wars guy. You're not a Star Wars guy. I like the originals, but this Star Wars just it's just it's just garbage, garbage anyway.

So so the theater was really nice. I checked that part of it that was that was kind of cool, although we do need somebody who stands there and doesn't allow people to talk because people get all cozy, they get in their big comfy chair, they're a signed seat, and they think. The worst is that people think that when it gets loud, that's when you really want to talk.

So it's like the soaring music comes in, or there's like a really intense scene, you know, like the car chase scene, they're like, yeah, so because it's loud in here, I'm just gonna you can hear them. It's like, shut up, I do not want to hear that. You know, when they're doing the thing when they're talking and living room living room syndrome. Yeah, they think they're in they're living room,

your living room. Say, that's not really about the Joker movie, but I was because i'm somebody who I stopped going to movies because I thought it was such a negative. It's just a bad user experience. And I love watching a flat screen on my big couch. Like my couch is basically half my living room. I have a giant cow. I'm one of those people's like I want a giant couch. I don't want a little fancy couch. It's like, oh,

are we gonna have tea on my fancy couch. No, I want a big couch like I live in a suburban house, except I live in a shoebox. Big comfy couch, big comfy couch. I agree with you, Yeah, exactly, you need a big comfy couch. So the theater situation was better than thought, and then all the movie Joker itself. I grew up liking comics, reading some comics, but definitely watching all the different comics shows. I mean, I watched the old X Men cartoon that was on on Saturday

mornings back in the day. I watched the Spider Man cartoons. I was. I liked all that Marvel and DC Universe stuff, and I'm sure a lot of you do too. So for me, the way that they created a backstory for a character that has already been a tremendous amount of content created around was pretty It was pretty impressive. It was pretty solid. And to take on a role where you're immediately going to be compared to Heath Ledger's Oscar winning role was also, I think a pretty bold move.

But I was Joaquin Phoenix definitely pulled it off. Definitely pulled it off. And what you see in the movie, and I think that there are real lessons from this. I think that this is important people to see. You see the creation in a sense of a monster, right, I mean, not that any human being can ever fully become a monster, but you see, you see the creation of a monster through frustration, negative circumstance, in this case,

a big dose of dangerous mental illness. But but you see the way that he he really transitions into somebody who is a dangerous, violent maybe. And they do it. They do it in such a way that you think about it afterwards. You you wonder, you think, well, what should the joker, you know, what should this character have done in response to the circumstances of having an abuse you know, I don't want to give too much away. Apparently we maybe read a spoiler recently on the show,

but it's not really a spoiler. If you see that movie, it doesn't really matter. I think you can see it all coming a mile away anyway. But so on the production value side of the acting side of it, Joaquin Phoenix carries the movie. He's it's just like a character study, and he does a phenomenal job. I've thought he was excellent ever since he played comedist and gladiator. Why don't the people love me? I will give them games. He was so good. Now they look Maximus for his mercy.

I've seen that movie with way too many times. It's a it's a great that's a timeless that's a timeless movie. That's one of those things that's on if Gladiators on TV, on just normal channels, whatever part of the movie, I probably will watch it. It's one of those. It's up there with Tombstone, Tombstone. It could be the first twenty minutes, the last ten minutes, doesn't matter. I'm watching it. I'm your huckleberry. It's the best, the best. But back to

the Joker film, it wasn't really that violent. It was way less violent than I was anticipating. And what I thought was so interesting. And one of the reasons I want to talk about on the on the show was the way that it was set up. It was supposed to be. We were supposed to believe that this was a insell white man rage justifying movie, and it absolutely

was not that. And there's no reasonable way to go from A to B. There there's no reasonable way to look at this movie and say to yourself, yeah, that's what was going on. Yeah it was. It was about justifying, you know, either like white nationalism or white supremacy, and in cell you know, there's been some of these guys

who were involuntary celibate. That's what that's what insul means. Essentially, their frustration with the opposite sex leads them or that that's the spark in their deranged minds for becoming mass shooters. There have been a few cases of this, um but it's not that either. This is this is a very sad and troubling story of somebody who was given a bad a bad deck of cards to start with, and then plays those hand, plays that hand poorly and makes

bad makes some bad choices, makes bad decisions. And I didn't think the violence was too extreme, but I just also thought that the left wing version of this movie um shows you that they can find things. They'll they'll find narratives where they do not exist. We know that from politics, but they'll do it even in in film. If anything, the Joker movie was if Joker was a p if Joker had politics from this movie, he's a he's a Democratic socialist. I mean the Jokers a Bernie

Sanders supporter. He's an Elizabeth Warren supporter. He's not a Trump supporter, that's for sure. Trump would be like, this guy's a loser. That's what That's what Trump would say about him. And he is a loser and then he turns into a homicidal one at that. But it was it was worthwhile on the way they wove in some elements of the existing DC Batman storyline into it. It was very good. It was very well done. Have you seen it yet, by the way, producer Mark, not yet.

I'm gonna go this weekend. Yeah, you should definitely want to hear. Let us know what you think. I think you'll I I give it like uh B plus a minus. You know, how come you'd go see a Joker movie, But god forbid you'd see the Avengers movies. I mean, the Avengers movies are trash for people that they're trashed. They're not. It's just you're it's just all CGI and and really bad jokes. But there was no CGI using the Joker movie at all. Very little. I don't know,

come very little. I haven't seen. You know what there is. There's plenty. You know, there's producer marking the Joker movie that I appreciate acting. There's acting in the Marvel No, there's plenty. Is the problem here is, unfortunately, audience is gonna get the producer marked all the because they make they make a billion dollars and blah blah whatever. The only thing that's worth watching in any of those Avengers movies is Robert Downey Jr. I'm just gonna say it,

Hulk smash. Come on, how many times we got to hear that? And there's always like even says Hulk Smash once. No, he doesn't say that, I'm saying the other I mean the Hulk he says that like few he does. Whatever. All right, you've heard producer Mark likes the Avengers movie. So you can light us up in the comments and let us know if you agree or disagree. I find I find them. I'm watching, but and I'm somebody. I like the Batman trilogy, although the third one is pre

browl of Gartham. I mean the third one had there's some ridiculous stuff going on there. I like Blade. I like UMD. That's a throwback. That's I think that's among Wesley Snipes's finest works. Blade. It's good flick back in the day. And the original, the original Iron Man is very good. All right. I've turned this into a longer movie view than I met See The Joker. It's good, it's worthwhile. Makes you think about some things, and um, it will it will affect you, and and it's and

it was not. It did not lead to any mass shootings. That's crazy. This plan that you're introducing high the wealth tax is going to pay for this and other things. So how is your medicare for all supposed are going to be paid for though without wealth to wealth tax? So uh, As I've explained, the wealth tax will pay for universal childcare all the way through canceling student loan debt.

It's about an investment in an entire generation. Over the next few weeks, I'll be coming out with a plan about the costs of medicare for all and how we can pay for My friend PJ O'Rourke works with me. He's the editor in chief. I'm I make a writer for a project called American Consequences. It's free. You can sign up for it, and I hope you do. I write for I write a piece a week for them, and usually a monthly feature as well. Pj's got a

great pia on Elizabeth Warren, who are my wealth? Tax is just going to take from the rich hed It's got to pay for all the childcare across this nation. There's some interesting stuff that PJA writes about here on Elizabeth Warren's real plans for you. Here's some of my friend pg rourke writes in American Consequences. As scary words go, I have a plan for that is right up there with hold my beer. Warren thinks we can improve our economy by returning personal and corporate income taxes to Clinton

era levels. Are higher taxes good for the economy. Us gdpeeper capita adjusted for inflation forty four thousand, three hundred and fourteen dollars in nineteen ninety eight fifty seven thousand, So this is gdpeper capita, not household income. That was a mistake I made before in the show fifty seven thousand,

eight hundred and twenty one. Now. Warren also wants to impose a wealth tax on the net worth of individuals two percent, two percent on net worth above fifty million dollars, and three percent on net worth above one billion dollars. The current yield on two year Treasury bonds is one point five percent. For a conservatively invested billionaire, that means a two hundred percent tax on income on top of the income tax he or she is already paying in

anything except politics. We'd call this stealing, but don't try to take the money and run. Warren proposes a forty percent exit tax on expatriation of wealth exceeding fifty million dollars. The island that Wall Streets money to will be living on won't be Grand Cayman. It will be Riker's Island. Warren doesn't seem to like rich people very much, never mind that, according to public financial disclosure forms, she and her husband have a net worth between four and eleven

million dollars. End quote PJA taking pg Rourke here my friend and college taking Elizabeth Warren two task for this, the wealth tax is going to set up all kinds of dislocations in the economy and create a new regime where the irs is not going to just be looking at what you make, will be looking at what you have and assessing based on that how much you're going to pay. The wealth tax may start at two percent,

but maybe then it goes up to four percent. Maybe then the idea becomes nobody And I've heard people say this. You will hear a kage progressive say this out loud. Nobody should be worth more than ten million dollars. They'll say nobody needs more than ten million dollars. You might say, why not one hundred million? Well, because they say so.

The same mentality that believes that central planning by the government will lead to good outcomes thinks that we can just pull a number out of the air and that's all you need. That's the max net worth that would appeal to people. Right, I'm sorry that would be acceptable for people that it appeals to them or not. As a whole different matter, but Warren is in many ways quite radical. PJ goes on to talk about her plans

for corporations. Quote Warren has proposed that large corporations should be required to allow employees to elect forty percent of corporate board members. And that's how somebody's brother in law, wearing flip flops, cargo shorts and at Patriot's jersey, ends up at the board table scratching his stomach and drinking a beer. You can't blame the guy from the loading dock who nominated him. His wife had been had been on him for years to get her brother a job.

She also proposes limiting the gender pay gap. PJ wrights with the Paycheck Fairness Act legislation, and Warren thinks the federal minimum wage should be twenty two dollars an hour. Folks, this stuff is all really gonna have. That would have dramatic effect. Now, I know you say buck, but she'll need the legislature to go along with her. And well, what we know about Democrats is that sometimes they'll just do things by executive fiat. Sometimes there'll be a determination

made that they can't wait. But if you want to see, if you want to read more of Pj's essay, there American Consequences dot com. That's that's where you can read it. And I write there too, and you can sign up for their newsletter. I send a newsletter out every week. It's very cool, so you can check it out. Oh, by the way, the concern over Elizabeth Warren, I think is what has led in part to the possibility of

some very late entrances getting into the race. There are people now, there are some stories out there now, like here's one from the New York Times quote missus Clinton and Michael Bloomberg have both told people privately in recent weeks that if they could win, if they thought they could win, they would consider entering the primary. She has not given Do not believe anybody who tells you otherwise. Do not you know, don't let the propagandists change your

mind on this one. She has not decided that she needs to accept a future in which she will never be president. It's just not there. It has not happened. Her belief, very clearly is that she did win the twenty sixteen election, even though she didn't, and she may be the only candidate in her mind who can fully

unite the Democratic Party and defeat Trump. And therefore, in Hillary Clinton's oh my gosh, world, she is the necessary candidate for this moment, not just a candidate, the necessary candidate. It doesn't require that much thinking like a liberal to get us there. This is not a massive departure from what Hillary is already saying in public and we're already seeing. In fact, The New York Times had a published a piece out Hillary about whether she's a master troll, whether

she is excellent at trolling people? Now master troll question mark freed to the constraints of public office. Missus Clinton seems to be living her best life. There are still Hillary superfans all throughout the media. They haven't given up either. I'm not saying it's like you've heard me. I think I've said ten or twenty percent. Chance Hillary andrews the race. It's still very much a chance. And when you see Joe Biden fading, Bernie Sanders is not healthy enough, nor

is he compelling enough really as a candidate. Elizabeth Warren seems like big, harshly talks like this, and she looks like someone you could sit down and have some nice camemal tea with. She's radical, and the rest of the Democrat candidates aren't getting any traction. So is there a future which Hillary Clinton maybe does jump into this thing? I can't tell you. I can't tell you it's a no. And more importantly, neither were Hillary Clinton. For the first time,

there are now more rich Chinese than rich Americans. China now counts for one hundred million of the richest ten percent of people in the world. There are ninety nine million Americans in the same category. An interesting statistic here, yes from CNN from their business section. And if you look at the ten percent of the wealthiest people in the world, there are more Chinese who fit into that ten percent then there are Americans. And this is the

first time that that has ever happened. The US still has many more millionaires eighteen point six million, or forty percent of the world's total versus four point four million in China, and it's adding millionaires faster. But and the average American is still much richer than their Chinese counterparts. US wealth per adult is four hundred and thirty two thousand, three hundred and sixty five dollars compared with fifty eight thousand,

five hundred and forty four in China. But China is growing rapidly and the Chinese entry into the middle class is having major impact on global markets and on geopolitics, because now you have hundreds of millions of people in China who've been lifted out of poverty and they're going to have their own aspirations, goals, and yes, this will play out at the nation state level as well for China.

I just wanted to share with you. I had a conversation recently with a friend of mine who is a very knowledgeable China expert, speaks fluent Mandarin, and he was saying to me that things have changed in China dramatically. That it used to be the Chinese attitude, the Chinese attitude on the mainland was if you were a visiting American and I had heard this before too, they were

so happy to see you. There was such a sense of such a sense of being pleased that there are anyone's willing to even visit and go see China and experience its culture. And that was true through the nineties and the early two thousands. But there's been a change now and a lot of Chinese and this is coming from there. They have a very lockdown state propaganda media.

A lot of Chinese are being told that there are external forces that are trying to hold them down, that America is trying to box them in and prevent them from finding from achieving their true destiny, and that the Chinese people are on a pathway to become the world leaders and everything and everything the wealthiest, dominant military power, dominant culture, and America is the one thing that's standing in their way, and that has resulted in a change

in attitudes wides were changing China to particularly in the cities, the major cities in China, about Americans, even on an individual level, that there is much it's much more likely this is again there's a friend of mine who lived in China for years saying that it's much more likely that you would experience hostility from Chinese nationals now when you visit than you would than you would before. That there's much less of a sense of wonder and excitement

about anything American. That our culture is considered more invasive now in many ways than something that was admirable and desirable, even they have their own way of doing Now. I'm not saying this is everybody. We're speaking about a country with a billion people, but this is a much more prevalent, much more prevalent perception among the Chinese. And I've heard this from other people. And I'll tell you, I feel like I experienced a little bit of this as well,

just when I was visiting there for a week. You come across eural Chinese visiting Beijing and they see an American and they smile. But you deal with Chinese in Beijing day to day and they're they're not they're not looking to help you out. In fact, in Shanghai, you deal with a lot of people who the second they see or Westerner, they're just trying to rip you off.

And that was told me by people running businesses in China that there's just a sense of if you rip off a Westerner, a foreigner, even if it's an expat who's living in Shanghai, that's fine. You're you're just kind of evening the playing field a little bit. It's it's a it's a much more aggressive, much more nationalistic culture you're dealing with in China than you used to have.

And this is from people I know, and they're saying that you'll just look at how they wield Chinese financial influence to shut down conversations in the NBA, and look at the way that they will harass and suppress academics who speak ill of China or who are critical of the Chinese approach to anything. My friends, we have been asleep at the wheel as a country and seeing what's going on here with China and being willing to confront it.

And I know that President Trump in a lot of ways, you know, he's a blunt instrument, but with the China situation, he was the first one who is really willing to say this has got to stop. We have a real problem. He has been ringing the alarm bell on China, not just as president, but for many many years before it. He has been right. This is a country that is going to pose very serious, not just economic challenges for us, but down the line it's going to be security challenges.

And I don't just mean stealing an intellectual property. I mean we're going to have to be worried about a China that is building bases all over the world, that's flexing it's muscles all over the world. It wants global dominance, and global dominance through a system that is truly authoritarian, really totalitarian. Wants to control your thoughts, your speech. The social credit system that's in place that tells you whether

or not you can get good dates online. I mean, they have really taken this stuff to a new level, and it doesn't look like they're going to collapse or have a massive financial reset anytime soon. It's slowed down a little bit because the trade war with America. But if anything, the trade war that has been ongoing has raised awareness to borrow from the left about the real challenges that China poses to us, the real challenges that

we face from China. So when you see these statistics about the percentage of the wealthiest ten percent of the world that are from China, it is a reminder that they are gaining on us and their intentions. This is not this is not like the EU being a bigger you know, the EU is a bigger economy than the United States. That's a lot of countries put together. That doesn't keep us up late at night. We don't worry

about that. You know, no one thinks no one thinks that we're going to have to worry about the French invading us anytime soon, or the French building a blue water navy to rival RS and then kick us out of whole areas of the Those are real concerns with China, and what is China going to do going forward with Taiwan and what is it gonna You know, I think the best strategy that we have other than recognition that China is a competitor, a true near peer competitor or

not some country that we just need to be strengthening ties with all the time and let do whatever, Let them do whatever they want to our economy, to our intellectual property. We want the we want to be as

close as possible. I mean, I think that the US focus on closer ties with India should be much much more, a much stronger effort, and also the US effort to build up the so called literal L I T T O R A L. I don't know why I spelled that out for you guys all know it, but just reminding myself states like the Japanese, the Philippines, or the

South Korea. You look at all these different Malaysia, Vietnam, all countries that we want to be self sufficient, powerful and a block on Chinese ambitions because we want balance in that region. We do not want one a hedgemon that's pushing everybody around and getting its way all the time, because if that happens, there's only other there's only one hedgemon. That they can look to beyond the near abroad and that's going to be us, and we are heading for

a real We're heading for a showdown with China. It's just a question when it happens and how it happens. And I think that there's a greater awareness now and you've either's been a change in Chinese nationalist mentality that even if you're just a tourist showing up there, you may be quite aware of it. And I've been speaking to people that are telling me that's exactly what's going on. Hey, Team Buck, it's time for roll call. Team at iHeartMedia dot com. If you want to send us dog, that's

how we get the role call going here. Let's start it off with my man Andrew, who rides Buck. I install the Pluto app on my Apple TV exclusively because of your presence. I've been og teen Buck before it was a thing. As evidence to the screen shot in this email, Yes, I enjoy the show as much now as I did when you filled in for Glenn on

July eighteenth, twenty thirteen. And I stand by my original claim that you're the legitimate heir to rush Limball Shields high from Wo Wo Land Andrew, Well, Andrew Man, thank you so much. That is very high praise and it's really kind of you and appreciated. And Andrew sent me a screenshot from Wow from July of twenty thirteen. I can't believe I've been doing this as long as I have, He wrote to Glenn, this is when I work for Glenn Beck. Glenn, I'm really enjoying Buck Sex. There's a

fill in host today. His points and analysis are brilliant. He reminds me of a young Rush Limball regards Andrew, Andrew, thank you so much man. You have certainly been og team Buck and we like to say oss for original Saturday Squad, but thank you so much for writing in and the kind words always are appreciated. Guys, because in the media business you get a lot of people telling you not good enough, not big enough, not whatever enough.

And the only thing that really keeps you going a lot of days, the only thing gives me going a lot of days, all of you who listen to watch that's it, and the desire to avoid getting a real job. David writes, you do the best, Beto. I've never heard anybody else even try to do his accent or his voice, probably because they can't even come close to you. Gotta work on your Elizabeth Ward a little bit war ex goose me, sir, ask producer Mark if you sound a

little like totally from south Park. I don't know who that is. Who's totally from south Park? I don't know who that is either. Love your show. I listened to a lot of talk radio, and out of all of them, you're the closest to Rush with your real world analysis. Thanks David, Well, thank you so much, David. That's very kind another Rush comparison. You guys do me great honor with that, and thank you so much for writing in and saying all of the kind things. Chris, we're doing

emails today because we did Facebook yesterday. If you want to send Facebook messages on Facebook dot com, Slashbuck Sexton and Team Bucket iHeartMedia dot com for the email address, Chris right, Hey Buck. My daughter was invited to a three day ACLU camp. Huh. I tried to explain to her why it wasn't a great idea. But then when I searched the internet, I found that I supported many

of their positions on free speech. I know the individual members are extremely liberal, but they are free speech advocates, even for undesirable groups like the KKK, so it doesn't seem like they play favorites. During the Reagan era, the biggest insult in Republican circles was being a hardcaring member of the ACLU. So is the ACLU ok Chris is a very interesting question. The ACLU is a left wing

organization with a left wing agenda. Does the ACLU sometimes stand on a principle of free speech that is truly about free speech and not just about advancing the left wing agenda? Yes, indeed, But if you look at, for example, when the Aco ac LU will and will not bring a case, there's a tendency to go after Christian religious organizations on First Amended issues and not, for example, Muslim

religious organizations on First Amendment issues. Right, there's there's certainly cases where the ACLU is showing a left wing bias.

Do you see that a lot? And then there's another part of this is that the a CLU on the issue of I think it's I'd have to look at their recent positions, but I'm pretty sure on on hate speech they're very they take the position they're getting closer and closer to speech equals violence, which is the eradication of the First Amendment relief if speech equals violence just because you don't like certain speech. But I'd have to look at some of their more recent decisions. But what

when they bring cases and when they don't. That alone shows you the a CLU is a left wing is a left wing group, but even left wing groups can do good things. You know, Telsea Gabert hates the president, is a progressive, wants medicare for all, and believes in climate change. But I've been seeing you're saying, well, at least she doesn't want third trimester abortion and doesn't say that Trump supporters are all Nazis, so she's you know,

there's good things, there's bad things. Aclu IS is mostly about destroying the SLU really at its cored now, has been leveraged by the left to destroy Judeo Christian culture and conservatism in America. That that is the ultimate It's not protecting freedom, And I could pull some examples of why that is, but I'd have to do a little bit of a deep dive on it. Brandon Buck, I agree with another member of Team Buck Joker was boring story and acting were good, but pace is very slow.

And sorry but there was a spoiler of sorts. Blah blah, Brandon. All right, Brandon Brandon, you, sir, are entitled to your opinion. I think that I will say this about Joker, since we're back on the topic. When I saw that it's two hours, this is a big mistake most movies, you really want it to be ninety minutes. You want an hour and a half, three acts, thirty minutes an act. That's it. That's the sweet spot. Now, of course there's

Brave Heart, which went on for like ten years. I mean, there's some movies that are amazing and are very long. But usually I think that you could have cut twenty minutes out of Joker, for example, and made it a better movie. If you cut twenty minutes out, it would be a better movie. That's what I think. It was too long, so I would agree with that. I wouldn't say it's boring, but I do think it was too long.

Let's see Kathy hey Buck listening to the podcast. Is a time in the podcast where Betta was talking about the president using Nazi tactics and you start speaking the background. I don't think you meant for better to speak over you. Just thought i'd mentioned this since this is not the first time I've heard this happen. Shields High Kathy from Georgia. Yeah, Kathy, thank you. People brought this to my attention last night. Producer Mark has a brilliant strategy for me to avoid this,

called don't talk during clips. Buck. Yeah, that's a great strategy. Yeah, well, I think it's also part of the new studio operations, so I won't put all the blame on you. Thank you a little bit more than just it's not just all about the Bucks are getting a little too excited.

But yeah, no, we will try to avoid that. Mark will wave me off now because I sometimes like to talk while these clips are going in the past, but we don't really have the set up here for that, so we'll try to avoid that for a whole bunch of reasons. Oh wow, look at this, Andy writes, Hello, Buck, just wanted to say you have a fan base in New Zealand that really enjoys your show. All right, we

got some Kiwi team Buck. A lot of us here closely follow American politics and relate to conservative and libertarian ideologies. Our country has dramatically changed with the election of a far left government and following our recent terror attack, things are moving very quickly. Imagine Justin Trudeau but with venom. Anyway, your show was always on point, and that Hans Gruber voice the other week had me in hysterics. Keep up

the good work, cheers Andy. Well, Andy, not quite the landown under right, that's Australia, but whatever, whatever the cool way to say New Zealand the land of of Frodo in the Hobbits because that's where they filmed the Lord of the Rings trilogy. Sure, yeah, just thank you to Kiwi team buck Man down there in New Zealand, and thank you for writing in. And I don't know was the Hans Booby? Was it that center? Was it the British like mister Takagi. I can't remember now, but I'm

glad you enjoyed it. That's the show. Check it out on podcast. Tell people Shields High
