The Greatest Electoral Victory

up on The buck Sexton Show. This is the buck Sexton Show, where the mission or mission is to decode what really matters with actionable intelligence. Make no mistake America, You're a great American Again. The buck Sexton Show begins. Analyst remember Bro the VD, he's a great guy. No, but I don't alleon no collision. I have no idea what it's going to be released. It's interesting that a

man gets appointed by a deputy. He writes a report. Uh, you know, never figured that one out man gets appointed by a deputy. He writes a report. I had the greatest electoral victory, one of them the history of our country. Tremendous success, tens of millions of voters and now somebody's going to write a report who never got to vote. So we'll see what the report says. Let's see if it's fair. I have no idea what it's going to be released. Welcome to the buck, Sex and show everybody.

Great to have you here with me. As always, I'm here in the swamp and oh it's feeling swampy. We're being told there are whispers all over the place in the Hill newsroom my various sources inside the federal government that we are, you know, t minus forty eight hours from the Muller Report dropping and the Muller Probe, the Special Council ending. I do not know if it's true, though, because I've been told for weeks now this is about to happen, and from people who would know, and they

keep telling me. When I asked them, hold on a second. You told me that this was going to happen. You told me that this was about to about to finally wrap up, And they say, well, it was, but then they moved it back. It was, but then all of a sudden there was some reason why they could not

do it anymore. Be very very interesting to see how the different parties here in the biggest political drama really in the world for the last two years, certainly in America, And I guess you could argue that that means in the world how they react to this. And I want to know what the White House response will be, because they must be chomping at the bit to get to just crush all of the liars and the haters and the nonsense that's out there and dragging this country through

this nightmare. And for what we've seen now so much that I think years ago Americans would have thought impossible. We've seen an FBI that was infiltrated at the highest level by deep state partisans who wanted to override the will of the American people. We have seen the usage of FISA, which when I was in the intelligence community that was considered, you know, a highly sensitive tool only

meant for the most important national security purpose. We've seen FISA deployed against Carter Page on a fishing expedition that

brought nothing. We've seen the abuse of some of the most intrusive and sensitive tools that our government has, the shredding of the Constitution in the process, all because a bunch of people who had worked for government, perhaps for too long, thought that Hillary Clinton really really deserved to win, and that Donald Trump was a threat to the Republic because you know, he writes some snarky tweets and he's been married three times or something. I mean, it's not

even ever really clear. Oh, and they say he's crazy. He's a billionaire, he's been wildly successful and he's now president, but he's crazy. You know. I saw an interview with McCabe, who is so slimy. He just reminds me of these guys that I used to work with in the CIA who were in the internal security side, and you sit down with them and they weren't on your team and

they were just looking. They were just looking too, as we used to say in the business, just to do somebody dirty, I mean, just to break him down, ruin their career, just get a scalp, because that's how they advanced themselves. You know, McCabe is one of these institutionalists, you know, he's the he's the the Hall Monitor on steroids. The fact that that guy was FBI director acting director

for a while is is appalling. And he was sitting there talking to Bill Maher on the Bill Maher Show, who for all my criticisms of mar I will say he at least believes in the First Amendment, and liberals need to stop being babies and telling people they can't talk and they can't say anything. I gave him credit for that. He's good on that, and he's good on radical Islam. He's terrible on everything else, but he is

good on those two issues. Uh the but but McCabe was sitting there and it was just such a kind of a mealy mouth pandering interview where you know, Bill Maher, who was a believer in the Russian insanity and you know, thinks that Donald trum must included with Russia and runs with all this stuff, is saying, you know, is it possible the Russians? Really? You know, what, did do the Russians have something on him? Did they full trade the campaign?

And McCabe, instead of saying, look, that didn't happen, keeps going, well, it's it's possible. You know, at this stage, that's still what they're clinging to. It's possible. And when he was asked about Hillary Clinton's emails, he just stuck with this line that no person would have brought charges against Hillary Clinton for that. I'm sorry. There was a guy who took a photo on a submarine on his phone that nobody saw, and that he deleted anyone. They sent him

to prison for a year, violation of classification protocols. Right, I mean, this is this is such bull and that that McCabe would go on TV and act like there was nothing really to the Hillary investigation, and you know, and politics didn't play a role in the decision. We're not all idiots. We've seen them. They're exposed. And that's what I really want to get to. Even if the Muller probe goes on for another six months, we know

who we're dealing with. Now, we know what the other side is all about, and we have to reassess at some level. We have to adapt, even places where we thought that being an American meant something more than just petty partisanship. Right, even at those institutions like the Department of Justice, where we would really like to believe it's not all about d or R, It's about America. That's

a naive position. Now when there's politics involved, you know that you can't trust the other side to respect the institution, the process, the law, good faith, goodwill, good sense, none of it. Trump understands this he's gonna have a lot, you know, he's gonna have a lot to say about Muller in particular Play twelve. I know nothing about it. I know that he's conflicted, and I know that his best friend is called me it's a bad cop. And

I know that there are other things. Obviously, you know, I had a business transaction with him that I've reported many times that people don't talk about. But I had a nasty business transaction with him, and other things. I know that he put thirteen highly conflicted and you know, very angry. I call them angry democrats in so you know, so what it is. Now, let's see whether or not it's legit. You know better than anybody there's no collusion.

There was no collusion, there was no obstruction, there was no nothing. That's all. I am almost certain that is all going to be proven absolutely true in the Muller problem. Mean, I'm as certain as you can be without actually having the report in your hands and able to read it.

And that's that's going to be certainly a moment of truth for the country, won't We've been waiting for for a long time, and with the fact we've been through this, I think about all the hours we've spent on this show going through the different iterations of you know, the Muller investigation here, and they're the people they've prosecuted, you know, going after Roger Stone and Papadopoulos, and the hatred and the just the bile that they spew at Paul Manaphor

people calling him a traitor. You know, the guy's you know, he's a little a little sleazy in his business dealings, but he's not a traitor. He didn't betray his he didn't betray his country. People say that are idiots. They don't know what they're talking about. The guy just wanted to be, you know, even richer than he was and didn't pay his taxes. It makes him a tax cheat, doesn't make him and look, I'll say it a bit, a tax cheat doesn't make you a bad guy. It

makes you a tax cheat. And we got to enforce the law. But you know, i'd still have lunch with a tax cheat. I would say, oh, I can't, I can't even discuss anything with you, sir. I'm appaulled to being your very presence. They want him to die in prison. I want him to be treated like some kind of an animal. You know, in a cage by himself for the rest of his days. Guy is seventy years old. All this hatred fanned by a wildly, wildly irresponsible media.

You know, even Ted Copple is like, look the major media outlets, they've gone nuts when it comes to Trump. I don't even know what to say. There's Ted Copple play for I'm terribly concerned that when you talk about the New York Times, cities characters, when you talk about the Washington Posts, we're talking about organizations that I believe have in fact decided as organizations the dog j Trump

is bad for the Hub States. Absolutely true. They are as organizations CNN, the New York Times, the Washington Post. They are part of the resistance to this president. They are devoted to it. They work tirelessly, effortlessly or well, not effortlessly. Tirelessly. Effortlessly would be a different thing. Tirelessly toward destroying this presidency. If they could help bring down his family members and have some of them sent to prison, they would. They have no shame whatsoever in how partisan

they are. And unfortunately, even though we may finally get some clarity here on them, all our probe, we may not. I mean, I might be talking about this in a month. Up, It's gonna be any day now, any day until you know, you don't know, you know A done, I don't. But there will have to come a time when we realize that the media needs to basically be rebuilt from scratch.

That that's going to occur. I don't know when exactly, but we will reach a point in which it's no longer possible to vertend that these people are merchants of truth. They are. I said it here on this show, and I heard it get picked up elsewhere. Not enemies up the people, but enemies of the truth. They absolutely are. And now as we reach this hopefully latter stage of the problem Muller investigation, you have to also do an accounting of how successful they've really been. And it pains

me to say that. It makes me mad to have to say that, But think of all the legal fees the Times spent not on messaging about the border, about healthcare, about growing the economy, about winning the trade dispute with China, instead of a media and a republican apparatus focus on those issues which could benefit the lives of the people in this country. In real ways. We have had to say, no, the President's not a Russian trader. No, only crazy people

believe that the Russians help them steal the election. But unfortunately, there are like tens of millions of crazy people running around, and there's a very powerful still mainstream media that was able to leverage that feeling of sore loserism among the pro Hillary and pro Bernie contingents and to weaponize it into a kind of mass hysteria. And that mass hysteria alone has been an anchor on the Trump administration. It has slowed it down. It has made life more difficult

for Trump and for all those around him. And it's just it's a crime for which there will never be justice. What was done to Trump is a crime for which there will never be justice, and that is disappointing, to say the least. Even if this pro bands, I do not believe that there will be hell to pay for

those that will be shown. People like McCabe and Comby and who knows who else Rosenstein shown to be political players who put themselves in this enter of a food fight that they really started and then pretended to have nothing to do with, and has done real damage in this country to our ability to talk to each other about politics, for one, I mean, it's never been more heated right now. I mean the left has gone completely insane.

It's very difficult to speak to anybody who is truly a Democrat, true believer about any of this stuff because a lot of them have been saying that the president's a trader. I mean, how do you have a conversation with somebody who believes that. Where is the common ground you find with someone who walks around thinking that the President United States betrayed his country, sold out his country on behalf of Vladimir Putin, CNN, MSNBC, all these places

where they say that it's just madness. Is the madness going to end this week? No? But well we at least maybe end one major chapter of it. I certainly hope so a team, I cannot make any promises. We will discuss the universal basic income this hower. I meant to get to that yesterday. Andrew Yang, this kind of out of nowhere Democrat presidential hopeful, has made it one of his major policy policy proposals, and it's a it's interesting.

I mean, I'm not saying it's a good idea, but it's an interesting idea, and it has a lot of different facets to it. I meant to get to it yesterday. I got so wrapped up in other topics. We didn't get to it yesterday. We will get to it um. And also we've got some updates on immigration and the benefits of rejection. I want to give you a I want to rally you to the cause of being rejected. That's coming later on the show. Stay with me. I don't mind. I mean, frankly, I told the house, if

you want let him see it again. I say, a deputy because of the fact that the Attorney General didn't have the courage to do it himself. A deputy that's appointed appoint to another Manda right a report explain that because my voters don't get it. Yeah, he's right. You know, we've had Annie McCarthy on the show and he said that he doesn't even think that the Mueller probe was properly constituted. From the beginning, it never established a crime

that it was investigating. It just said, so people have a theory about something that maybe happened, not a crime though, just like a theory about Russia doing something maybe and let's just look around. It was a counter intelligence investigation that took on a life of its own, and counterintelligence investigations are supposed to be very clearly confined to the national security realm and not a weapon of politics. But that's what happened. So yes, I think the Muller Report

should be made public. I think the people do have a right to see. I think we should see what is in the Mula report, and that means at least the sections of it that aren't going to be heavily redacted. I want to see it. And I'm just gonna prepare you all for this. Though, no matter what, no matter what it says, no matter what is in fact in the Mulla Report, Democrats will try to claim some form of victory. They'd be like, yes, we are the champions.

You know it did a great job. They're gonna be like the kid that stands up in front of the class to recite the poem and only gets out the title and then says d end and sits down and smiles and thinks that they've done a great job. That will be Democrats with the Maula Report. They it doesn't matter what's in there, they're gonna claim victory. By the way,

just because we're having some fun with the Trumpster today. Man, here's what he said about Kelly and Conway's husband, which it was a pretty it was a pretty wow moment. Play thirteen. Well, I don't know him. Yeah, I don't know him. He's a whack job, there's no question about it. But I really don't know him. I think he's doing a tremendous disservice to a wonderful wife. Kelly Anne is a wonderful woman, and I call him mister Kelly in the fact is that he's doing a tremendous disservice to

a wife and family. She's a wonderful woman, wonderful woman. And Trump, Hey, he's loyal to his people, even if it means he gets into a family feud. What can I tell you? Universal basic income, it's a very interesting idea. It's also a quick bridge to a much larger state and to redistribution and socialism. Democrats are putting it out there. I think it's going to get traction. Let's talk about

that and then we'll talk immigration. Stay with me. I'm proposing that we declare a dividend of a thousand dollars a month for every American adult starting at EGT. That's a universal basic income. Yes, proposed the universal basic income, which I rebranded the Freedom Dividend because it tests better with more Americans with the word freedom in it. A universal based income is a policy where every citizen in a country it's a certain amount of money, free and

clear to do whatever they want. So my plan, the Freedom Dividend, would give every American adult a thousand dollars a month twelve thousand dollars a year is during at age eighteen. This would create millions of jobs around the country and would allow families and individuals to help manage this historic transition that we're in. I believe that every American adult at the age of eighteen should get a thousand dollars a month, free and clear from the government

to do whatever they want. For working hot right, oh, for being a citizen of this great country. Universal basic income. Folks, you're gonna be hearing more about it. The cool kids call it that you be not to be confused with ub forty rid rid wine. Yeah, d wine, that was terrible. I know that's horrible. Please don't stop listening to the radio show. Now, that was youb forty though right, at least I got that correct. Yeah, I like I like my UB forty. But UBI universal Basic Income has been

endorsed by many on the left. It does have some interesting support on the right, which I will get to. The basics of it are pretty straightforward, instead of just the welfare state that provides services to people generally, although food stamps is really money for food. There as some limitations of what you can do with it, but instead of a voucher system a thing else, they just straight up give you money. A thousand dollars a month was the number that Andrew yangmember. He's a Democrat who is

going to be on the stage, folks. He's going to make it onto the initial primary debate stage. He's got enough donations and enough support that he's someone you're going to hear from. But the idea of the universal basic income is that it's just a more efficient way to create a safety net for every every person in your country, and that it's far less of an onerous bureaucracy than which you usually would have with a well with a

welfare program, which is what this is. Although very quickly the UBI can be called the UBI, the UBI will be considered an entitlement right that you earn it just by being alive, is what people will think. There are there are some interesting Oh wait, Mike has the financial breakdown on this? Mike, come on, tell me, what are

you talking about? What do you mean the financial breakdown? So, according to the two eighteen US census, there are two hundred and fifty three point eight million citizens over eighteen years old. So costwise, that would cost US two one hundred and fifty three point eight billion a month and over three trillion a year if he got what he wanted. Yeah,

see that seems pretty expensive to me. So I think what he'd have to do would be it would be means tested, so you'd have to have its thousand dollars a month if you make under a certain amount of money, that's my guess, and they probably have a phase in period, so if you make you know, a certain amount, you get a five hundred and then it. But you know, Alaska has done this for those listed up in Alaska.

Alaska in fact, does have something similar to a universal basic income, where every resident since nineteen eighty two, out of oil revenues, has gotten from a few hundred to a couple of thousand dollars a year, you know, just no strings attached, just kind of handed to people. The advocates of the universal basic income will point to Milton Friedman and Martin Luther King Junior, for example, as those

who supported a basic income structure. Peter Teel has supported it, and others who are worried about the coming automation revolution that's going to create a mass structural unemployment that's not gonna that's not going to be able to be placed

with other jobs. Essentially AI making so many jobs obsolete that you're going to have a huge no one knows what the number is, but a huge chunk of the workforce just permanently out of work, and so you'll need to give them some form of income so they can buy products and services and keep the economy going. And you know, it does have some support on the left on the right, and Mike points out that if you

did this for everybody would be insanely expensive. But even if you only did it for a relatively small porch of the country, mean, we already have a trillion dollars a year welfare state when you add up Medicaid, food stamps. You know, a child the health insurance program and all all these different Section eight housing. You've got a trillion dollars a year welfare state as it is in America.

We are much closer. And this is kind of a sobering thought, but I think I gotta tell you that things, even when they're sobering, we are much closer to European style welfare state than a lot of people realize. In some ways, we're actually further along the road than some of these European states are. I've mentioned to you that the Nordic states Denmark, Sweden, Norway have more business friendly regulations at the federal level in a lot of ways

than we do. They had lower tax rates at the federal level for corporations, not for individuals, than we have had at least I think. I think Denmark definitely does. Don't quote me on Norway and Sweden until Trump came along and past that corporate tax cut. But universal basic income is one of these ideas that gets us closer

to a change relationship between citizen and state. And he's going to get more attention is going to get And by the way, yeah, he supported Mike is telling me that MLK supported a guaranteed minimum income, so you know, these are different. The point is people have thought about this.

It's going to be a much larger piece of the Democrat debate, I think than anyone's hearing right now, because there's a real sense that the government owes citizens a certain standard of living now and that this is the this is the best way to do it would just be to give people money. And when you're spending a trillion dollars a year more than you're taking in an income, adding another trillion dollars a year the national debt, people start to think, well, at least at least now they'll

be a lot of money sloshing around. That'll be a good thing. But you know, they also say this is a way of really creating some kind of a utopia. And that's what you got with o'casio Cortez and she's saying there'll be more time for art. And you know, when AI structurally changes the employment picture in this country so that you have people that are that aren't going to get jobs ever again, really that aren't really going

to be able to participate in labor for us. I think that's probably exaggerated, but there are certainly people now who will say that we are so productive as a society that we can have this, and this is just the cost of maintaining a robust and healthy society. And essentially the very productive you know, the Googles and the facebooks and the Walmarts and all these major companies. There's so much wealth that is created that to siphon off a portion of it to give to people as a

ubi is a good idea. I understand it. It's easy to dismiss this and just say this is, you know, comy claptrap and it's not going anywhere. I think that this is going to get a lot of serious attention from Democrats because it's an expansion of the welfare state. And then you know what happens. It starts at a thousand, and what do you think happens after that? Oh, that's right. They're gonna want to be two thousand a month or fifteen hundred a month, and then it's just going to

keep going up and up from there. Once you tell every American whether they work or not, whether they try to work or not, no matter what age they are, I guess as long as they're in Once you tell them that the government owes them at check every month, free and clear. Then the debate becomes how big should that check be? And the people that are reliant on that check aren't going to care about the drag on

the overall economy and productivity. They aren't going to care about the change and the relationship between citizen and state. They're just going to say, I want that check to be bigger. And those people will also go and they'll vote, and they'll vote down anybody who says we need to get rid of this system. In fact, you know what they'll do. This is just like out of Democrat playbook. They'll vote for anybody who says, let's make the ubi

even bigger. This is a trojan horse toward socialism. To my friends, you just have to look at it through the long term. If they're conservative, if they're Republicans, if they're in a certain group, there's discrimination and big discrimination. So something's happening with those groups of folks that are running Facebook and Google and Twitter, and I do think we have to get to the bottom of it. He's right,

He's right. And at the hill where I work, Donald Trump Junior wrote a piece that I wanted to share with you on what's going on here with big tech. It's titled Conservatives face a Tough fight. A is big tech censorship expands and he goes into some of the details here that censorship of conservatives, this is es Donald Trump junior piece in the Hill, becomes evermore flagrant and avert. The old arguments about protecting the sanctity of the modern

public square are now in valid. Our right to freely engage in public discourse through speech is undersustained attack, necessitating a vigorous defense against the major social media and internet platforms. From shadow bands on Facebook and Twitter, to demonetization of YouTube videos to pulled ads for Republican candidates at the critical junctures of election campaigns. The list of violations against

the online practices speech of conservatives is long. It's true, and finally, it is a situation where we can expect there to at least be some honesty in the conversation. Right even a year ago, maybe eighteen months ago, they would say, oh, there's this is a conservative myth. There's no shadow banning. There's no, yes, there is. I know people who have been suspended. I know people have been shadow banned. And for those of you who don't engage in social media in this way and don't really care.

This is all about This is all about the next generation. This is about controlling the narrative today to some degree, but even more so in five years and ten years, and brainwashing people by determining what they can see without letting them even know that editorial decisions are being made.

In many ways, social media censorship is more pernicious than the bias of the big mainstream media because at least with the New York Times, yeah, they they they will skew it far left, and they're not honest about what they do in that regard. And you know, I mean, CNN will do fake news, but at least you know it's CNN. At least you know it's coming from CNN.

So you can start from a place of, well, you know, we're gonna take this with a grain of salt because we know that CNN is full of it sometimes, right, So that's one component of this. But with social media censorship, you're just whatever comes into your feed is whatever comes into your feed. You know, for a lot of people who are not spending their days like I am, just researching and going through all the different you know, sources

and news stories and all the rest of it. And you're you're whether you're on Facebook or for those the small percentage of this audience because generally speaking, talk radio on it is not very active on Twitter. Just let you know that, which I'm hoping to start to change, folks. Gott gotta get more and more you on Twitter follow Buck Sex than on Twitter tweet at me, say hi.

But that censorship. You don't even know what's happening. So you're just assuming that whatever pops into your feet is the most the most red story, the most credible source, the most you know, the most reliable accounting of events. And when that's happening day in and day out, the effect of the rutinization of the propaganda is profound. It changes the way you think about things. I mean to

take this like an advertising model. You know, they don't have a Coca Cola banner that pops up on your computer screen because they think that you're just gonna buy You're gonna go right away and buy Coca. Though there's some of that direct response advertising on the Internet these days, for sure, but generally, I mean, they want Coca Cola banners up on places because they want you to see Coca cola. Then when you see it again and again

and again. The idea being when you're in a store, when you're thinking about what you're gonna drink, guess what you're gonna drink Coca Cola. Well, if the Internet giants can just tweak the algorithms to set them up so that left wing sources are going to get higher placement, will be treated with you, they'll be a more revered

source of information than guess what. That's going to have an effect on what people read and how they think about these issues, and going forward, it's going to alter the national conversation on the most important issues to all

of us. Donald Trump Junior goes on here in this piece in the Hill quote, I certainly had my suspicions confirmed when Instagram, which is owned by Facebook, accidentally censored a post I made regarding the just Smollett hoax, which consequently led me led to me hearing from hundreds of my followers about they've been having problems seeing, liking, or

being able to interact with my posts. Many of them even claim that they've had to repeatedly refollow me as Instagram keeps unfollowing me on their accounts While nothing about big tech censorship of conservatives truly surprises me anymore, it's

still chilling to see the proof for yourself. If it can happen to me, the son of the president, with millions of followers on social media, just think about how bad it must be for conservatives with smaller followings and those who don't have the soapbox or media reach to

push back when they're being targeted. You know that This reminds me of how many of us rallied around my friend Jesse Kelly when he got banned from Twitter, and how the editor in chief of The Daily Caller recently was kicked off a Twitter for or suspended for tweeting the phrase learn to code. You know what I mean. The left, they can whine about this and say it's not happening as much they want. It is happening to people that I know. And this is so much more

important than Russian interference in the election. Is liberal collusion behind the scenes at the biggest social media platforms to alter what people think and for the election, and to change minds to shape perception. I mean, the only places like Google and Facebook and Twitter are really able now because of their market share and the power of those platforms. They are able to do information operations against the American people, and they're able to hide it from us very very well.

And their wildly profitable companies making especially Google and Facebook, making a tremendous amount of cash billions and billions and billions and profits every year. They are the biggest ATM machines on the planet in many ways. I mean, the only thing that rivals them are the biggest oil companies. And they're able to do all this while pretending to be platforms for free speech and fair debate and discussion.

And it's time that we call them to account. It's time that we do more to expose the truth here. You know that the president is supposed to You know, this issue is getting a lot of attention. I believe tomorrow the President is going to be signing an executive order that tells college campuses that they have to institute the First Amendment. You know, we are in the middle of a major battle with the social media platforms, with college campus censorship, a major battle for the heart and

soul of the First Amendment and conservatism. To my surprise at some level, but it certainly makes me happy. Conservatism is rallying here and seems to be rising to the challenge somewhat. Because if they can control the conversation, we will lose the debate. If they can control the parameters and the platforms, we're dumb before we even start. So that's why it's important that we fight on this. When it comes to buying wine, most people selections have nothing

Ninth Circuit decided once again. In the Ninth Circuit, in contrast to every other circuit in the country, they decide to reinterpret the law to say no if they get relief from a prisoner or a jail and ice closes and finds them that they're required a bond hearing, or if they would have gotten straight out of jail and then our because they wouldn't have got a bond hearing, the Ninth Circuit overturned, you know, they put it on his head. Supreme Court said, no, we're going to go

back the way it should be supposed to be. This isn't just for every criminal amien out there. This is there's a specified type of criminal and an aggravated feelies. We're talking about people convicted of serious crimes like rape, murder, armed robbie, sexual assault. These people shouldn't be free walking our communities anyways. Number one, they're in the country illegally, and number two their public safety threat were the Ninth

Circuit rule on this. We got to put this in context. Now, who's in the Ninth Circuit California, Oregon, the state of Washington all heavy sanctuary states. These are these are states where criminal alians are released out to the public, criminals, public safety threats, rather than turning over the ICE. So this decision was devastating in these states and made it much more dangerous not only for our communities but for ICE officers who could have got custy in the jail.

But now, because of the same sort of city policies, they have to locate these people in their community, in their homes, on their turf, where they have access to who knows what weapons. This is a huge win from the menum winners. It keeps them a little safer. There's Tom home and weighing in on what I told you about yesterday. Supreme Court saying, no, no rule of law still matters when it comes to immigration. You don't get to just rewrite it. Ninth Circuit Court of appeals because

you prefer a different outcome. That's not how the law is supposed to work. So it's a win. As I said, and as Tom says, and I always like to check him with Tom whant to see him over at Fox News. We exchanged thoughts on immigration, and I'm looking forward to getting a whole lot of time on the ground in

El Paso next week. I'm gonna be right there in the midst of all this craziness at the border, because while we did get a victory from the Supreme Court in terms of immigration enforcement and rule of law, the system is overwhelmed and it's about to burst. It's just in a free fall right now. This is from the

Wall Street Journal today. The Trump administration plans to start pulling back on a controversial plank of US immigration policy in a busy border region, saying Tuesday will stop sending some migrant families who illegally cross the border in Texas's Rio Grande Valley to jail or Rio Grande? Do we say Rio Grande? Yeah? Rio Grande? My bad? The Rio grand Which one? Is it? Anybody, Bueller, Brandon, Mike? What do we say? Do we say? Grand? Right? This is America,

the Rio Grande St. Louis or Saint Louis. I don't know. I'm sure that in Texas, who's listening to this is like, fuck, you're such a city slicker, get get it together. Well, I'll know next week because I'll be down there in the valley of the Grand River. Anyway, Starting this week, hundreds of families caught each day in that area are being released by border patrol agents instead of being handed over to Immigration and Customs and forrestment for potentially longer detention.

The exact numbers will depend on how many there is room for and ice detention facilities, which have filled up as a recorded volume of families are crossing the border. The officials said they're making the change because of crowding and safety concerns. End quote, guys, this is overwhelming the system. That is what is going on here. That is explicitly and clearly what is happening. They are overwhelming the system. This is intentional. This is a strategy. They know that

they're because the word gets out. I mean, look, I'm reading it out of one of the biggest newspapers in the country. The word is out. It travels very fast online and you know, you have these different not not just within the migrant groups themselves, but you have different communities of activists and legal aid teams that all they want to do is find ways to make sure that illegal aliens can stay in America forever, and anyone who shows up who's illegal will stay as long as as

as he or she wants to that. That is their purpose. And border patrol is at a point now where they're just saying, look, we can't continue to even hold them on a short term basis down in Texas because we don't have the facilities for them. We just don't. We're not We're not able to do it. They have clearly overwhelmed the system. And you know, I've been saying this was going to happen. I mean, it's been in the

process of happening. Now here we are where it could not be any more obvious that the system is at a breaking point. And do Democrats have anything, Do they have any solutions for this? No, because they're on board for this, they are in favor of the current situation. In fact, here here's a Kirsten Gillibrand just giving it away that the plan here the Democrat plan, and this is the plan to destroy the Republican Party because we'll never be able to compete in another election if they

get their way with this. The Democrat plan is to legalize and then and then register for benefits and then register to vote all of the illegals in the country. This is This is Kirston Jillibrand when he's not lifting her eight pound weights with a with a T shirt on. Do you see that? Today? She was trying to do the whole I'm hip, look at me do social media. Here's what she says about illegal immigration. Play clip one. So what will I do? I have a lot of ideas. First,

we need comprehensive immigration reform. If you were in this, do you pay into social Security, to pay your taxes, to pay into the local school system, and to have a pathways That must happen. This is one of the most oft repeated lies of the amnesty crowd. They say, well, we just want to we just want to make them

legal because then they'll pay into all these programs. Right then, No, no, no, that's not what's going to Overwhelmingly, illegal immigrants would owe nothing in federal income taxes if they were here illegally. They don't make enough money, they might pay some you know, some taxes along the way, but they would be net beneficiaries.

In fact, one of the problems that came up with the Gang of Eight bill for amnesty, remember Marco Rubio and those other senators back in the Obama administration, was that they wanted retroactive tax filing, and illegals under that,

under that system would have been getting a check. They begetting a check from the government for missing out on some of the large ess from Uncle Sam that comes to you if you make under a certain amount of money that they could be that's right, they could be getting they would be getting paid for having been illegals

here by the government. We have a twenty two trillion dollars national debt, all right, that's from the Americans that are already here from assistant that we have the spending that we've done, mostly entitlement spending, some war spending to twenty two trillion dollars. You think bringing in more people who are much more likely as a percentage of the general population to be reliant upon welfare benefits about fifty percent.

And by the way, the people will say that I legal Limrans don't get welfare that they're all They just it's so hard. There's so many lives, Yes, they do. All there has to be is one. If there's a household headed by the run by an a legal limerrant, but there's one child that is born in the States who's a citizen, then everybody else the household is going to benefit from the bet from the welfare payments to that child as as a citizen child in this country.

So and and and they the adult in charge of them gets to apply for it. And there's a whole system. It's just scam after scam after scam, and then all the lines around it. But with the system overwhelmed the way that it is, the Democrats have no incentive to try to change anything. In fact, I think a fourth a fourth illegal alien in custody just passed away, just died.

And do you know what that's going to turn into. Um, that's going to turn into a rallying cry for people who are upset at how Immigrations and Customs Enforcement handles those that are in their custody. They're going to say, oh, it's terrible. You remember you had former your government officials like Mike Hayden used to be my boss, the CIA comparing our border patrol, immigrations and customs enforcement agents to Nazis.

And remember abolish ice. That was just last summer. So now that you've had another person died, they're showing up in mass Our system is not meant to handle this. They know that, and they're showing up in these very large numbers specifically because they know that they can't be processed. But because they can't be processed, then they also can't necessarily be given entirely adequate medical screening and medical care right away, because it's not the Red Cross on the border,

it's border patrol. But we're gonna be told, oh, they're so nasty and they're terrible, and how could they do this and all this other stuff. That's what they're gonna say, and it's just going to be an emotional argument, bereft of reason. Don't you just love it when you find a one hundred dollar bill inside a jacket you haven't used for ages. It's an incredible feeling. Right you find hundreds of dollars maybe sitting in a cab or in

boxes or in your attic. You know that could come from the old four oh one k paperwork You have from that job before the last one.

There will be some who will say that the SAW stems from climate change, but the truth is that the water challenges have been around for generations and are causing immediate deaths annually. Areas of the world have struggled with water availability for centuries and these struggles are due to access, geography, infrastructure, and technology or lack thereof.

That's EPA chief Wheeler Andrew Wheeler, who has said, and this is of course getting the environmental is completely freaked out, said today in a testimony that water quality around the world is a much bigger crisis than climate change. And this comes when we're all supposed to be so focused on the Green New Deal, right, the big trojan horse for socialism, the Green New Deal has people talking about changing out all fossil fuels and dramatically shifting how we

do things with our economy. Meanwhile, there are other issues, and you know, right now you have, for example, the flooding in the Midwest, terrible flooding. And you know, do our friends out in kfab in an Omaha thoughts and prayers to everybody out in the state of Nebraska. We hope you all are doing all right and they're getting you all the assistance that you need, and that the waters are receding. But people are saying that that's climate change,

and that's just not true. There there have been floods for you know, look at the Bible, folks, right, there have been floods for as long as people have been writing in books and longer actually, so you know, flooding is just a natural It's a natural disaster in some cases, but it's a natural cycle that occurs in different parts world.

Always has, always will. And this impulse to point to every bad thing that happens on our environmental level and try to blame climate change for it, climate change for it is just not rooted in logic, reason or facts. This is this is an emotional an emotional impulse. It is driven by the desire that people have to feel like they are part of a group that understands this

problem and is taking the proper action on it. But you know, the truth is also that while we're so focused on things like the Green New Deal, there are much more important things out there that you know, environmentalists could be looking at that EPA could be working on Play seventeen. As the administrator of the USCPA, I believe that water issues are the largest and most immediate environmental

and public health issue affecting the world right now. By water issues, I mean primarily clean and safe drinking water, marine litter, and water infrastructure. It's absolutely true a thousand children a day die worldwide because of unsafe drinking water.

A thousand kids a day are dying. A lot of them are dying from you know, just bacteria that's very easy to eliminate in a drinking water system, but they don't have they don't have access to it, and they don't have access to the antibiotics to treat the infections typhus and cholera and all these different things, all these water borne illnesses that you can get. Um. He said that most of the threats from climate change are fifty

to seventy five years out. He's right, yeah, Well, will there maybe be some additional climate disruptions in fifty to seventy five years? Yeah, I think that's that sounds that's not going to be the end of the world. It's and I mean this, it is literally not going to be the end of the world, which some people think it is. But you know, this is why for all the virtue signaling of the climate change obsessed left, there's

a cost to that lunacy. There there are costs to their insanity, as in, you don't have unlimited resources, unlimited time and energy to approach all different minds of problems. You know. It's it's not like you can just say, oh well, there's there's plenty to go around in terms of the with the EPA and that the problems that

they can tackle. No, the focus on climate change, the way that it has consumed a place like the EPA and all the court fights, and you know, that takes away from imminent, very real problems about things like drinking water here in this country. You know, what happened in Flint,

Michigan is terrible. It is terrible that people were being effectively poisoned by their drinking water in an American city, you know, in in our current era there I've I've read whole a whole study and in depth study of how the projects and I know we're we're down, We're on w R Ando in New Orleans, UM. But you know the New Orleans some of the New Orleans housing projects have terrible lead contamination problems, you know, and those have long lasting ramifications for kids who are drinking that

in their water. And you know, it's it's bad for the it's bad for the kids. It's bad for the kids kids. And that's happening in this country. You know, I think one place where conservatives can make a lot of headways to say you know, can you stop with your old climate change closes, forest fires and all this other nonsense, because there's there's a real need for conservation, there's a real need for clean drinking water. I mean, I'm all for clean air, clean water. You know, I

do not want pollution. I just don't buy into this catastrophist vision of the world coming to an end because of CO two, which is a tiny percentage of atmospheric gas to begin with, and is a naturally occurring and necessary gas. It's not like we're just it's not like we're creating CO two and there was no CO two before. But the virtue signaling is not without its own costs,

And I think that's the biggest single takeaway here. You know, if liberals were serious about dealing with environmental issues that impact people right now today, and if they wanted to save lives, if they want to improve lives, they would back up a guy like Wheeler at the EPA who's saying that clean drinking water is the biggest single crisis because people are dying from not having clean drinking water

all of the world, and they're getting very sick. And over the long term, you could say some are some are dying in this country because of that issue. And you know, this is really one of the marks of civilization as I see them, in the marks of civilization that you can always you always know what kind of country you're dealing with based on two things. You know, you know one of them. I always tell you how does a country deal with its trash? And then also

can you drink the water? If a nation state has clean streets for them most part, I'm everyplace has, you know, trash dumps here and there, and but but if a nation state deals well with its refuse and you can drink the water out of the tap, you're you're you're in an advanced country. I mean, it's it's it's fool proof, basically, I mean, you're in a sophisticated, well off, and well ordered nation state. If there's trash everywhere and you can't

drink the water, you got problems. You got problems. And given the technology that exists and the global wealth that's out there, there should be fewer and fewer countries that have filth all over the streets and filthy water that little kids are drinking. But we're not making as much progress on this as we can notice how the EPA director is getting slammed by the left for this because they think it takes away from the much more important

threat of climate change, which they're delusional. I mean, they're crazy, But that's the problem with dealing crazy peoples. It's hard to reason with them. I wouldn't entertain that the only reason is that they're doing that as they want to try and catch up. So if they can't catch up through the ballot box by winning an election, they want to try doing it in a different way. Now, we would have no interest in that whatsoever. It will never happen.

It won't happen. I guarantee it won't happen for six years. I think that it's I'm open to the discussion. I mean, there's no question that the popular vote has been diminished in terms of making the final decision about who's the president of United States, and we need to deal with that. So I'm open to the discussion. That is where the Democrats are right now, open to a discussion about kicking at the load bearing walls of our governmental system just

to sort of see what happens. And you know, we talked about this a little yesterday. I've been thinking more about it for the last twenty four hours because it really is so brazen what they're doing. It's so obvious that this is yet another attempt at a power grab. But it's not likely at all to happen. So why else do they do it? Well, Because here's the real message of Democrats going out there saying, we need to

change this system. We need to change these different points in the system where we have not gotten our way. It's that it's illegitimate when they don't get their way, and they reinforce this at every turn that the left believes that when the government does not deliver to them what they want, it cannot be a function of the failure of their arguments. It cannot be that maybe they were wrong. It has to be a systemic failure from within the system itself. It has to be a shortcoming

of the process. Right, the institutions that they rely on need to be reformed so that they can get what they want. But it really all does go back to this point of illegitimacy as well. They simply do not accept that outcomes that government outcomes that they disagree with are something that they should have to live with. You know, it's never we lost, though they never take the l it's never we take that loss. We're going to regroup

and the next time around will do better. It's we need to find a way to make sure that we have nothing but w's on our scoreboard, even if we have to cheat, even if we have to pay off the reps. And that has been pretty pretty open um. And I think it's also only possible because not only do they think that the the system outcomes that they disagree with are inherently illegitimate, they also think that Donald Trump is an entirely illegitimate president. And that all ties

in as well. You know that the system that presented them with Donald Trump as the winner of the election has to be corrupt, must be reformed, and you know, then you look at the Supreme Court's the same thing. I mean, Drsh that Drsh. We should have him on radio, And I've had him on Rising many times, and I never think to say, hey, pressed Dirsh, do you want to come on radio? Although when he does Rising, sometimes

he shows up. He skypes from his office at Harvard, and sometimes he shows up and he's all like like, you know, yeah, I'm gonna have my jacket on. He's I don't have much time here, and he's very Yeah, he's curmudgedly. I'm not gonna I'm not gonna lie to you guys. He's curmudgingly. But other times he's like, well, let's let's have a conversation about the constitution and rule

of law in this country. Like he's really engaged. So I never know which dirsh I'm going to get, and when I get the latter one, sometimes like, hey, why don't you come on my radio show? Everyone who does rising who's not a complete communist, uh, wants to come on my radio show. So that that's a pretty easy thing to do. I'll be on. I'm I'm a little uh what's the word, I'm a little selfish with your time. Team. I don't I don't like to share the team's time

very much. As you've noticed. I know there are a lot of radio hosts. When I talk to people to say how many how many guests do you have on a day, I say, I'm one maybe or two some days, but I like to have it. Some days we have to, you know, we'll have four guest songs. We just feel like having a wide ranging conversation with a bunch of folks, and a lot of other days, no guests are any guests. I have so much to talk to you about. There's so much going on the world. So I'm just I'm

just a different a different cat in that sense. But the Dirsh speaking of a different dude. The Dirsh this is what he said about Supreme Court tampering, that the Democrats are more than flirting with I mean, they're they're really trying to push this idea play five. Well, it's a terrible idea, and it just increases the politicization of our highest court. The highest Court is supposed to be a neutral, objective, nonpartisan institution. As the Chief Justice has said,

there are no Republican justices or Democratic justices. That's really a wish rather than a reality. We the American people, have to demand that both parties leave politics out of the Supreme Court. So I think it would probably be a good thing to have only nine justices. Every idea seems worse than previous idea, isn't worse than the status quo. We may in the end have to just struggle to maintain the current law, because fixing it may produce more

problems than the problems that currently exist. He's just straight up saying it. The plan to pack the Supreme Court is a terrible idea, and everybody should understand it's a terrible idea. And that they would even they would even float this out there just shows you. I mean, there's a recklessness right now at the heart of the Democratic Party. There's a recklessness. There's a sense that whatever they have

to say and do in the moment, they'll do. And nothing is you know, outside of nothing's outside the realm of possibility, whether it's completely reforming critical parts of our constitutional order or changing up the Supreme Court. Who can vote in elections fell in sixteen year olds, foreigners, Oh, just give it time. They're gonna want illegals. They're gonna want to legals voting folks. I mean, they're gonna try

to say that they should legalize them first. But if liberals had their way, I mean, this should be a fascinating poll, if you could do it right. You know what percentage of Liberals believe that if it could be, if it could be made legal tomorrow, illegal aliens should be allowed to vote in federal elections. A majority of Democrats, I'm telling you, would say yes. And I think I think seventy to eighty percent of them would say yes. I think a strong they would. Their claim would be there,

They're just people too, They're in our country. They should have a say in governance. It's the same argument that they make at the local level about these these town councils or city councils, places like San Francisco school board elections, where they're already saying pretty openly that they think that illegals should vote. I mean, and they've tried to pass legislation to that effect. One thing we got to keep in mind here is also the economy. I just wanted

to get the actually, you know what we don't have? Yeah, we now, we'dn't have time for that right now. See, I'm running around with too much stuff we'll have to save. Because here's here's my theory, which I'll dive in. Let me let me use this as a teaser moment which we'll dive into tomorrow. My theory is that if the economy is strong, Trump wins in twenty twenty, no question.

If the economy is shaky, it could be close. If the economy hits a rough patch, I think you're going to see the rise of socialism in this country, I really do. You're going to see someone who is a socialist, perhaps an all button name and maybe with Bernie Sanders in name as well as an ex president United States. So we have to look at the cyclical nature of where the economy is right now, on what the debt means for us. But maybe we'll do a little more

of that. But that's the outlier that I think you determine everything. So put a pin in that one team. We will come back to that on tomorrow. Stay tuned. I'm very unhappy that he didn't repeal and replace Obamacare. As you know, he campaigned in repealing and replacing Obamacare for years, and then he got to a vote and he said thumbs down, and our country would have saved a trillion dollars and we would have had great healthcare.

So he campaigned, he told us hours before that he was going to repeal and replace, and then for some reason, I think I understand the reason he ended up going thumbs up. And frankly, had we even known that, I think we would have gotten to vote because we could have gotten somebody else. So I think that's disgraceful. Plus there are other things I was never a fan of

John McCain, and I never will be. How pathetic that fifty Republican senators have said nothing about this incredibly disgraceful performance by the President about John McCain, about their long time colleague John McCain. They are all such unbelievable cowards because they're afraid of Republican primaries. Yeah, we don't need to take advice about how to keep our own house clean for the Republicans here and how to tidy up ourselves from Jeffrey Tubin over at CNN. We got it, Thanks, buddy.

We don't We don't need your help. We don't need your help at all. I find this whole. There's a couple of big stories today that aren't big stories at all, but the media is making them into much bigger things. And one of them is this is this ongoing feud with John McCain and President Trump. And now of course John McCain's passed away and uh and full disclosure. I mean, I'm I'm a I'm a friend and uh uh and

somebody who respects his his daughter. But I'm speaking about John McCain now in his professional and legislative capacity, in terms of his record and the ongoing situation with President Trump, where what I see happening here is that Democrats love Their favorite thing about John McCain is to use him and his own UH disputes with the Republican Party as

a club to bludgeon other Republicans with UH. And there's this this sense of of a forced homage that you always have to pay to John McCain as a Republican, and Democrats like to just wield that as a weapon against against individuals. You know, are you are you, you know, saying that his service was not as honorable and of course not. But you know, I will note and the veterans here listening, I'd be very curious to know what

their opinions are of this John McCain situation. But you know, there are a lot there are a lot of people that serve very honorably in Vietnam. You know, we have a lot of Vietnam vets who put their lives on the line, who took bullets, who were wounded, you know, and obviously over fifty thousand didn't even come home. Are they all for the rest of their professional lives in if they're in public life, are they all beyond reproach

for whatever they do. You know, I do think there's a disingenuousness with Democrats where they you know, they know that John McCain was Look, he was an unreliable, unreliable partner with conservatism, there's no question about it, and turned his back on conservatism and the right at key points. I mean, McCain find goal was a terrible law that he co sponsored, terrible law, and then at the last minute to abandon his fellow Republicans on the issue of

the Obamacare repeal. And I think that that was that was personal spite in place of national level politics and responsibility to the people of Arizona and to the people of the United States more broadly. I think that John McCain wanted to wanted to take a slap at President Trump, and he was successful, But at what cost to how many millions of people that were affected by that healthcare decision?

You know, as people now will sit in waiting rooms wondering if they'll be able to afford the visit, wondering if they'll be able to get into the waiting room in time, wondering if they'll be able to afford their medication. All the different problems, all the different shortcomings of our system of medicine in this country. I'm not saying there would have been some cure all with the skinny repeal bill. It wasn't perfect what they were trying to do, but

it would have been better. And McCain stood in the way of that. And I think that he did that for personal reasons, and I think that we're absolutely allowed to disagree with him on that. And I don't like this, uh, this forced worship of anyone on policy matters, on matter you know, because of their because of their previous service

to the country. You know, Look, I'm not trying to say that John McCain was a strong man, but you look at a lot of strong men around the globe and a lot of dictators, and you know, they served in their militaries, right, I mean, you know, just because you serve in the military doesn't mean you cannot be criticized on policy matters or what you do after you're in the military. And look, Democrats know this. They're just they're just playing they're they're they're just playing cynical politics

with this by trying to turn Trump and McCain. You know, McCain posthumously against him. Now that all said, do I think that Trump should take the take de bait with this and and say all the stuff about McCain. No, I think it's a waste. I also think, and this was the other story today that and look, you can tell I'm not a fan of McCain in the legislative side of things at all. I do not think that as a senator he made a lot of good choices.

And I think that his senate campaign, I mean, his presidential campaign was a disaster for the Republican Party that led to eight years of Obama. So I do not think that he that his professional life should be on approach at all. I don't think that Trump should get into this, you know, mudslinging. It just doesn't really matter. But look, Trump is who he is, and he's he's gonna punch back, and he's not gonna take any guff In case you to know this, he hasn't liked John

McCain for the last twenty years. I mean, he's never liked this guy. Some people just don't like each other. You may even pick up from listening to the show enough that there are some individuals in media that I just don't like him and they don't like me. We just don't like each other, you know, and there's not

even necessarily a great reason for it. You know, people, you know, people are like animals, you know, an animals sometimes in the wild will kind of you know, the kind of smell each other and decide we're gonna fight this. We're gonna fight to the death, you know. And it's just the way it is. You know. Sometimes the two tigers just walk past each other silently in the jungle. Sometimes they fight until one of them bleeds out and the other one slowly bleeds out, you know. I mean,

that's that's just the that's just nature maybe. I mean, that's just the way that it is. And with people with massive egos, which I mean John McCain had a huge ego, I mean, make no mistake about it. Is it as big as Drump's probably not, And can you argue,

of course, you know, whose ego is more earned? I mean, I'm not even gonna go there, um, but this is this is what the Democrats love to hold up John McCain because they know that when Republicans, when Republicans say, hold on a second, but but McCain didn't do this or that that would have helped us, or McCain was a problem here, they go, oh, you're disrespecting his milit

So your Republicans don't really support the military. When we all know that if you had to pick, if you have to pick one political party in this country that is truly and honestly supportive of the military, it's going to be the Republicans. It's not going to be the code pink far left, who are a bunch of imperialists and you know, we bomb civilians indiscriminately for no reason all the time. Democrats, all right, It's going to be the Republicans that are the party that supports the military.

And although whenever, whenever you say something like this, you'll get the left has a few people in the media that that you have served in combat roles, and their whole job is to run around and bash anybody who points out that, you know, there there is a there is a a majority of support in the military for the Republican Party. It's just it's just it's just true. Um. And then you got this other thing, which I don't

even know if it's worth it. I know what, I'll just just a few seconds on this this whole Kelly Ann Conway, George Conway Trump nonsense. What did Trump say about the tweet is pretty is pretty funny. I want to see if I can, if I can pull this one up for you, it says, Hold on a second.

This is from earlier this morning. George Conway, often referred to as mister Kelly Ann Conway by by those who know him, is very jealous of his wife's success and angry that with her help didn't give that I with her help, didn't give him the job he's so desperately wanted. I barely know him, but just take a look a stone called loser and a husband from hell. You know again, I don't really see what the point is here other than they're trying to you know, they know they poked

the present. He's going to slap back. People keep saying it's so mean that Trump would say this. Why is it okay for George Conway to undermine his wife publicly like this by attacking her boss? Does it? The media never seems to ask that question. So we just Trump is intruding on their relationship. Yeah, yeah, yeah, we get the game at their playing folks, And you know what we don't like it. Probably familiar with AARP, right, They got a big office here in DC. I pass it

in the swamp and a lot of people are members. Yeah, yeah, guess what. AAARP is a seniors organization that pushes a lot of left wing progressive causes. That's why I recommend AMAC. AMAC is the conservative alternative to the aa ARP. So if you're a senior, please join my friends at AMAC. They are pushing for policies that you agree with, and they're making sure that you're part of an organization that's going to get you great value, including discounts on car insurance, hotels,

roadside assistants, dental plans, even sell phone service options. So there's all kinds of benefits. Stand with AMAC as they fight the good fight. By becoming a member today. The benefits are great, but you know the cause is even greater. Join right now at AMAC dot us slash buck. That's am AC dot us slash buck. AMAC is better, better for you, better for America. I wouldn't entertain that the only reason is that they're doing that is they want

to try and catch up. So if they can't catch up through the ballot box by winning an election, they want to try doing it in a different way. Now, we would have no interest in that whatsoever. It will never happen. It won't happen. I guarantee it won't happen for six years. Libs lose and they want to change the rules. That seems to be a widespread phenomenon among the Democrat would be presidential hopeful type. So what does that tell us about their respect for institutions? Also, what's

going on with the Muller pro pretty much everything. It's kind of a kitchen sync segment we got planned for you here with my man Sean Davis, who is co founder of the Federalist, also fierce in his Twitter game. Doesn't let the Libs get away with the nonsense. Sean Davis, Great to have you back, sir, great to be here. Thank you for having me. So do liberals not understand

why we have an electoral college? I mean, is it how much of this is driven by ignorance versus how much of this is just the cynicism of we need to we need to rig the game so we can win next time. I really mean that. Do you think that o'casio Cortez understands why the electoral college exists, for example. No, I think she's probably trying to get her parents to bribe the Electoral College with like a half a million dollar donation so she can get admitted to it. I

hear it's very selective. No. I think the left winners care about power. That's all they care about. They don't care about the historical tradition, about the very involved in deeply thought through debates that the founders had when they established our system of government. They only care about power and their experience with history while they've been alive, you know for the last twenty years or so. Is it electoral college bad because Republicans win sometimes with it, So

they've decided that needs to go. We need to get rid of it. We need New York in California picking all the winners in the stupid room in flyover Country can just deal with it like totalitarian. All they care about is the end result, which is accumulating more power. Yep. It's almost like Sean was listening to the radio show yesterday,

because that's my take on this. Too many they'll rig the game however they can and feel righteous in doing so, whether it's lowering the voting age to sixteen, eliminating the Electoral College, packing the Supreme Court. You know, Sean, if I had told people a few years ago that the Democrat platform going into twenty twenty would be annihilate the whole system and remake it in our own status image, they would say, Buck, you're being too harsh. Come on,

don't be that guy. But that's actually what's happening. I mean, they've gone so far left that they're about to topple over it is well, and recall that this is a party that has written into its formal official platform the repeal of the First Amendment because they don't like that Citizens United gives people the ability to band together and of some pool their money and run ads against politicians

they don't like. See, you've got a party that is hostile to the foundational amendment of the American idea, which is the ability to speak and vote and as symbol and worship how you want. They want to get rid of that. We all know they'd knuke the Second Amendment, maybe even literally if they could. Now. They want to get rid of the way that we've elected presidents in

this country for the entirety of their history. But I can promise you that if for some reason, Donald Trump were to lose the electoral college in twenty twenty, but when the popular vote, they will immediately switch their their rationale to own the electoral college is the greatest thing since ever in all of nineteen eighty four, we have always been at war with East Asia. They will turn on a dime and pretend they never had the positions

that they previously helped. Yeah, they are fond of doing that. I've seen them do it in many cases, you know, Sean, I think that there's an eerie calm right now and based in DC for those of us who are either around politicos or journos, there's a sense of any minute now, the Muller probe is going to come out. Do you have expectations for this thing at this point? Are you in? I mean, we're all in waiting, simo, because we don't know.

But I'm very convinced that the plan from the from the Democrats, from CNN and the Washington Post is when this report comes out and there's just nothing in it to justify the two years of insanity we've been through, They're just gonna be like, well, okay, let's get Trump's tax returns it's good. They're gonna act like nothing's happened, right. I think you're correct, although I'm very skeptical that this thing will be wrapping up anytime soon. And I've heard

all the same rumors. I've read all the same reports. You know, the report is in imminent, it's shutting down based on what I've seen from this investigation so far, which is, uh, you know, rolling up people, lawyers, searching through their stuff, attacking Republicans and putting them in prison for things that we know the Democrats involved in the same thing did, but they're not being charged. I don't have any faith that this moler thing is going to

stop until Trump is out of office. That's my personal view. I'm sticking with it until they prove otherwise because I've I've grown rather tired of this constant drum beat in the media that, oh, it's wrapping up and the report's about to come out. I'll believe it when I see it, and until then, I don't have any interest in it. You know, I was on that train with you until very recently, because I've heard now I'm hearing from people

that are that aren't well. I've heard from people in the doj But but they've also told me, yeah, but it keeps getting They tell me it's going to be the next couple of weeks. Then a couple of weeks pass and they say, well, it keeps getting pushed back. And I'm like, well, if it's going to keep getting pushed back every two weeks for the next fifty two weeks,

that means it's not going to end this year. So you know, I've I was with you in that and that until about three months ago, I was saying, I think, including here on the show, that my expectation was that this would drag all the way through until just before the twenty twenty election. Well we'll see if these rumors

now are true or not. But I gotta tell you, man, at this point, I think that there's going to have to be some kind of a reckoning for people who, at a minimum have been saying that the President United States committed treason. I mean, the things that we're said on CNN, particularly you know, around a year ago, are some of the craziest things I've ever heard said about about anybody, never mind a president, on national television. And I just I don't want to let that go, man.

I don't want to let them get away with it. Oh, I'm with you, but I've got some bad news. And bad news is that there will be no reckoning because half of this country is so bond into this narrative. They're so delusional they are not going to let it go. We're back to you know, circa two thousand and four,

two thousand and five Bushlide. People died. Okay, this has become such an article of faith among the left to explain why Saint Hilary loss that they cannot let it go because to let it go would mean that, you know what people actually did want Donald Trump, if you want it fair and square, and Hillary was actually a really crappy candidate. They cannot accept that, so they will cling to this fiction regardless of what the actual facts

show us. What of the candidates right now, who do you think is who gives you a little bit of a maybe this person is going to put up a worthy fight against Trump? Any of them? A few of them, I think Biden or Sanders. I think Sanders is an especially dangerous opponent from a political perspective because he has a very similar message to Trump, which is that the game is rigged. You're getting screwed, people are getting rich off of you, and I'm going to come in and

fix the problem. Now, they come at it from very different places, with different policy prescriptions to fix that, but they have the same message that's targeted kind of to the same disaffected blue collar Midwestern worker. And so while I think Bernie is cuckoo for Coco puffs, I think his brand and his message eats into Trump's base in a way that nobody else really does. And on the Beto phenomenon, do you think is he the real deal from the perspective of could he could go all the way?

Or you think this is a flash in the pants. I mean, he did raise that six million which everyone keeps talking about. Yeah, no, I'm completely bored by Robert Franciso Rourke. So yeah, everyone's talking about this big fundraising hall. He did well. He spent the last two years fundraising. So when I saw those numbers, I didn't think, Wow, this means so Rourke is a great candidate. I thought, oh wow, he spent like one hundred million dollars building up a pretty good direct mail list. So now I

personally think he's a flash in the pan. He's completely unimpressive and vapid. But at the same time, I didn't think Trump was going to be the nominee and I didn't think he was going to be president. So what do I know? Yeah, it's very hard and for anyone to make predictions that they can put a lot of ump behind. Considering how many people that I know who think that they are very savvy on political matters, and turns out they are. They were quite wrong on the

Trump phenomenal. Look, I didn't see the Trump phenomenon coming. But then again, in retrospect that the idea that that Ted Cruz was going to save the Republic, maybe that was a little overdone too. So I think some people. What bugs me about coverage now is most people in the punditory business were wrong about twenty sixteen. And what separates them is whether they learned something from being wrong. And what I learned is, you know, I'm not so

great at this prognostication game. I'm not be a lot more humble kind of how I look at it. Unfortunately, CNN, in The Post and The New York Times and others have taken the exact opposite approach, which is they're often wrong, but they're never in doubt Sean Davis. Everybody of the Federalist go check out what he's up to and all the rest of the folks over there among my very favoritist of all sites, the Federalist.

Please tell me you heard about on the Buck Sex and Show so they know your team Buck. You can also go to MYGVN dot com. Again, that's MYGVN dot com. Get rejected a lot. That's my advice to anyone out there who

is willing to hear it. Get rejected a lot. Learn to take no, Learn to take you're not good enough. Learn to take nobody wants you, or we don't want you, or you're not wanted here, and learn to take it in a way where you grow stronger as a result of that rejection. There's a piece today in NBC News

that looks at rejection from an evolutionary biology standpoint. The very basic version of their scientific thesis is that rejection, the feeling of rejection, causes a physiological response that in some ways mimics what you get in the pain centers of the body. So I mean reject. When people say rejection hurts, it actually does hurt. It actually does create a feeling feelings of not just uneased but unwellness, and

it can create pain in the gut. It can create a real sense of something terrible having happened, right, And what we're experiencing now in society is because of all of our connectivity and the constant sorting and resorting and the so called meritocracy that we strive for in some parts of life, we have so many more opportunities now

to get rejected than ever before. Rejected when we reach out to somebody for a job, rejected when we reach out to somebody electronically, for you know, for a date, for a drink, when we apply to college, when we

just you name it. There's so many ways. Whereas it used to be that if you were rejected by your peer group, this is the evolutionary biology part of it, you might starve to death because if people didn't trust you and didn't want to be around you, and you didn't have the cooperative hunting going on, you were in a lot of trouble. Now you're just getting Now it's

all psychological. You're bombarded with it. And so this piece tries to lay out a bunch of ways that you can deal with the pain response in the brain from rejection, and it says things like, you know, ask if it really matters, remember a rejection often isn't personal. Choose to assume the best rather than the worst and get back out there. I don't really like the way that they try to set this up because I'm I'm a fan

at this point in my life. A rejection, because you know, a rejection really means means you tried, means you're in the fight, means that as long as you're not being a you know, a lunatic right of it, I'm not suggesting, well, ask her out for coffee and then I ask her out one hundred more times, because rejection feels so darn good.

But whether it's applying for a job, applying for college, trying to better yourself, and also even this self rejection that you can engage in sometimes you know, the the idea that you will undermine yourself when you try to go, you know, restart working out at the gym, or or you want to learn a new language and you know you're going to you're you're automatically not good to want to do things you're not good at, and there's there

are reasons for that. You know, we all want to do things that we're good at, Like do I want to make scrambled eggs, Yes, because my scrambled eggs are amazing. But do I want to try and learn Chinese starting tomorrow. Probably not, because it's gonna be hard. I'm not going to be good at it, but learning to him, learning when to embrace that and when to view it as almost like the tears in your muscles when you're working out, That's what rejection is. It hurts, but it can really

make you stronger. And I don't believe, by the way, for the people I say with Niche, you know, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger, it's actually not true. You know, if you're if you're in a terrible car accident and you know you lose usage of two limbs, you're not actually stronger even though you're survived. So, you know, I don't think that that's a fair way to view these things. But rejection is something that in modern society we all have to embrace in our own way and

learned to get past. And I think it's important. I think it's important for kids to learn I'm a better person because I was rejected from my early decision college choice, which I don't know if I've ever said on the show before, not that I care but it was Princeton University. They technically deferred me then rejected me. But I was rejected by Princeton, the first school that I wanted to go to and applied to. That was a good thing.

It made me think more about who I was and how good of a student am I. But do I really want to go there? Did I just want the name? Was this all just a branding exercise for me? And it also allows you to understand other people who have dealt with getting rejected. I mean, I was rejected from the first school I applied for. I was rejected from Gosh, I can't even tell you how many different jobs I applied for. Technically, the CIA was the first job I

applied for and I got it. But while I was waiting in case I got some amazing offer, I applied for all kinds of jobs. Rejected, rejected, rejected. I was rejected by the first girl I ever asked asked out. It wasn't really on a date. It was kind of for like, you know, burger and a coke, But it was in the eighth grade and we were at a dance and I asked her if she if she would go out with me, which meant, do you want to go meet up after school and get a burger and

a coke? She said, no, straight up, shot down. That's right, Buck got shot down. And you know when someone breaks up with you, when someone doesn't take your application for that job and decide to give you the offer. These all are important experiences because life is a series of getting over rejections. Really, because you don't need to be taught. No one needs to be taught really how to deal with success. I mean people say, oh, I'm so rich

and it's hard to head. Yeah. I mean, like in normal circumstances, you know how to deal with joy, you know how to deal with things going the way you want them too. But the better you can get at rejected. I remember I got rejected my first day of high school. I tried to sit at a table with and I remember thinking like, well, like I've seen enough after school specials, Like it's our first day, it's his first day, it's my first day. He must want to have company, So

I'm gonna go sit next to him. Guess what I said? Can I sit here? He was all by himself, this big kid who later on we did become friends. He said no, you're not allowed to sit there. You're not welcome to sit there. First day of high school, I had no friends in my class. I didn't know anybody, and the first person that I asked to sit with at lunch told me no. So get rejected, Get out there. Whatever it is that you're doing. Don't be a friend, you don't try to be rejected, but never shy away

from it. Don't be afraid of it. And understand that every person that you know who is at the top of his or her field, who lead the kind of life that you would want to emulate, has dealt with massive amounts over their lifetime, all added up together of rejection and all of its different varieties. So you view it like the soreness you get from working out, or you know, view it like the fatigue you feel after you've run ten miles. Yeah, your body's breaking down. Your

body doesn't really like that, but it gets stronger. And that's one of the most important things. I also see for young people in the everybody gets a trophy generation, which are millennials, not the graybeard millennials like me, we're hardcore, but the younger millennials. They all think that success is measured by never failing. If you've never failed, you're not trying hard enough. If you've never failed, you're not taking

enough risks. And evolutionary biology aside, you can learn to deal with rejection of all kinds as long as you know that you've approached your task with honor and with dignity. So I'm a fan of rejection. And that's really what I want to tell you. I think you have to just look at in the eye and say, you know, the check is in the mail. We'll be right back. I have some very important breaking news to share with all of you, but I want to pose it as

a question to my colleagues here. Uh, Brandon, we'll start with you. Although it's producer Mike around or is he? Is he socializing? Look at him? Look at him? It's not producer Mike Socilaur after all, buddy, Um it is. But yeah, yeah, that's true. I mean, you know you can manage the show well. Plus I'm just a little bitter that everyone listening to the show apparently calls it just to talk to you now, because you know everyone

wants to hang out with Mike. I had the best jot, man, I sit here, I'm drinking a smoothie and I get to listen to you, and you know, it is an amazing It is an amazing gig. I would have to agree. So let's let's just let's just get this question out of the way. M Brandon, start with you. What is the according to the American Kennel Club. It's very important stuff. What is the most popular dog breed, not including mixed breeds, dog breed of twenty eighteen, uh, Golden retriever, anything like that.

Very good guests, all right, but not corect What about you, producer, Mike, I have a dog. I mean, your dog knows one of these designer fru fru fancy dogs. I know Cash is gonna bite me for saying that, but yeah, you don't play hill bark at you though. There you go. I would say I would have gone gold. I would, let's say, with Brandon said, but since he did it, I'll go you got It's very close. No, no, that's that's not a bad one. For the twenty eighth year

in a row, it is the Labrador Retriever. Labs are the most popular pure bread dog in the country for almost almost three decades. Going now, the other top ten breeds. We're pretty much the same, and I'm trying to see what we have here. They say that the German shorthaired pointer rate was went up. I didn't know what a German shorthaired pointer is. Just feel like it's very bossy,

like I'm German and I'm pointing. And the Yorkshire Terrier out of the top ten that or switch ranks with a German shorthaired But you know the other ones were the German shepherd. This is a top ten dogs by popularity in America, the German Shepherd, Golden retriever, French bulldog, Standard bulldog, Beagle Poodle, Rottweiler, German shorthaired pointer, and Yorkshire Terrier. And that's based on the registration of a million dogs and litters each year. Uh. That's look, that's a really

solid list. By the way, those a lot of my favorite dogs are on that list, you guys said. Golden Retriever. By the way, that's the number three. So you guys are right right in the in the in the hunt there French bulldogs. That's what my parents has. I want a standard bulldog really badly. But I gotta tell you guys,

something got a funny you know. My, My, My, wonderful co host on Rising has gotten a Bernice Mountain dog, which I don't know if you're familiar with that, but it is a it is a like a horse, if it is a they're very big. I think they're they're classific as giant dogs. I mean they're the size of like a Great Dane or and it's only a puppy that's about seven or eight months old. I think at this point I was six or seven months old. But Crystal has three kids who are you know, two years old,

five years old, and ten years old. There so something along those lines. And you know, they've got this sweet and Bernie's mound dogs are beautiful dogs. I mean they look like something out of a story book. They're so cute. They're you know, they look like something out of you know, Alice in Wonderland or Peter Pan, although I know Peter Pan's actually a Saint Bernard, but same idea. They're kind of Saint Bernard like. But this dog, it's trying to

be sweet. It runs around and it just lays the kid out of the kids out apparently all the time because it jumps up with its big paws and knocks them down. And this is where I get into the fierce, the fierce debate with some of my fellow dog lovers out there who are just like a small dogs not a real dog. I'm like, I'm sorry, a dog is a dog. They're all canines, and it's a lot for a lot of like how big is your dog, Mike? What is it? Ten pounds? Fifteen pounds? Yeah, yeah, yeah,

exactly right in between there, you know. I mean, if your dog gets a little gets a little lippy with you, you know, if it gets a little uh, you know, if his attitude needs improve it, you can just pick him up exactly. You know, my older brother has an adorable dog that he rescued, so no one's allowed to standing bad about rescue dogs because they rescued it from like an alleyway in Texas. But it's a Pomeranian and he wears a little diaper around the house. That's hilarious.

I actually saw it a pet story recently. I didn't know that existed. Yeah, people now, people now. It's it's increasingly common for the smaller dogs that you know, you still need to walk them, and they still need that, but you know, just in case they walk around a little little, a little dipeyon and they go. And I know so many people listening to show are like, I have a Rhodesian ridge back and a German shepherd, and you know they would never look. I love big dogs too, don't.

I love all dogs except maybe poodles. I just I can't, I know, And and the poodle owners out there get so mad at me, but I just something about them. I feel like they're judging me. But when you get a smaller dog, it's easier. I mean, Mike, you probably take yours on the subway with you. Do you get one of those little carrying cases for it. I have a bag just so I can sneak him into my office here. So yeah, hopefully nobody's listening, but that you're

totally right. It's way easier to carry out, especially when you live in a big city. I take him pretty try to take him everywhere I go, and it's just, yeah, it's way easier. That's where my dream dog is an English bulldog, because just big enough the week and wrestle a little bit, yeah, but but but slow enough and fat enough that like me, he's just gonna want to chill out on the couch and not move and you know we're just gonna be bud. So yeah, that's my plan.

That's my struggle right now is getting like a dog to be as lazy as me. The struggle is real, my man. Speaking of the struggle, you guys know what time it is next roll call time. It's coming up. Well, team, we've got a busy couple of weeks in the Freedom Hut planned. Next week I will be down in El Paso, Texas, visiting with members of Border Patrol and also Immigrations and Customs Enforcement. We'll be getting together some interviews, bringing you

ground truth about what's really happening down there. And this will be right before the numbers of inadmissible crossings or at least for the month, and they were projected last month for this month to break one hundred thousand, which would put us on pace for a million for the year if that continued, which would put us at an all time in all time record territory for inadmissible and illegal crossings at our southern border. So I think it's important to get down there and really see and speak

the folks on the front lines. That'll be next Thursday and Friday. We'll be doing the show from El Paso next Thursday Friday, I might because of travel timing, I might have to have a sub, but as you know, if we have a sub, it'll be a fantastic one. And then for the following Monday Tuesday, I will be on in Savannah, and I also am thinking I will probably be down in Richmond, Virginia soon as well. So I've got all all kinds of things going on, which

doesn't affect the show. I just like to tell you that I'm traveling around places, so you don't think that I'm just stuck here in the swamp and not getting to live life a little bit more. And with that it is time for our role call. Emily writes, Hey, Buck, I heard you mentioned the other day that we should give Twitter a try. Although I am technically a millennial, this was a form of social media I just preferred

not to deal with. However, I signed up today. I was blown away by the list of suggested people to follow. It was basically a list of left wing politicians. Hillary Clinton was the third suggestion. The President wasn't even on the list. The amazing thing is that when I selected my interests, I did not even include politics. It was supposed to be and wellness, wow, I even took a

little video of the computer screen to prove their complete bias. Anyway, I love your show and I appreciate you keeping it real for those of paying attention. Not all millennials need help tying their shoes shields high. Emily. Well, thank you so much, Emily, and I appreciate that you are willing to give Twitter a shot because I said, it's an important medium these days. So yeah, I'm not surprised at all that you have a lot of left wing suggestions

that pop up right away in your feet. That's more or less what I would what I would expect in those kinds of circumstances because Twitter is a left leaning medium. It just is. The people who run it are leftists, the people who overwhelmingly use it are often leftists. I mean, the left has made a very deep burrow into the heart of the Twitter accracy. Martin Rights. Muller was supposed

to find Russian collusion and found nothing with Trump. It looks like there was plenty of evidence of Russian collusion with Hillary and the DNC that was ignored and later covered up by Mueller. Isn't that considered obstruction by a bad cop. Well, Martin, I certainly agree with you that Mueller didn't find Russian collusion. As to whether we will hear anything about the obstruction that was, well no, I mean, you're essentially saying that the Russia collusion with Hillary and

the DNC was ignored and covered up by Mueller. You know, I don't think we have a legal case really to make there because it falls in the very broad area of the discretion of the bureaucrats involved. So if they're allowed to do something, you know, keep in mind, whatever a cop stops you, the cop can basically say, oh, you were going one hundred and twenty miles an hour, you know what, you look like you're having a rough day, so I'm not I'm not gonna give you a ticket

or arrescue. The police generally can't be disciplined for that, at least as far as I know. I know that they have a lot of discretion, and I know for a fact that prosecutors can say, you know what, we're just not going to bring this case. We're not going to bring these charges. And even if it's really unjust for them to not bring charges, there really isn't any disciplinary mechanism in place that would come back to bite them.

But thanks for writing in, Martin Keith Rights and he sent me a photo of a whole bunch of cats and it's a cat nip den. Huh. Interesting. I'm pretty sure I was listening to the Joe Rogan Show with Alex Jones, which was a very I rarely have the time to listen to anyone else's shows these days, but that one I had to check it out, and I'm sure I think there was a discussion about like cat ladies, old ladies and like you know, diseases of the brain from the cats, and they really got into it. So

that's the thing that happened. Valerie right, still trying to catch up on the podcast. On Monday, Richard made a comment on what is well read? Why not start a Freedom Hunt book club? Each month you would suggest a different book. You could have a history, fiction, economics, and world affairs rotation. Well, Valorie, know, I like to think that this radio show in a sense is a book club, because it's a I constantly I'm telling you about books that either I have read or want to read, that

have been highly recommended to me. Acagea I'll tell you about a book that that stinks. You know, I'm reading this Lost City of the Monkey God right now. I've got a few books in rotation, but I'm reading The Lost City of the Monkey God, and it's I just

can't get that excited about archaeology. I don't know some people really, you know, when you don't have Indiana Jones and a bull whip and you know, gunfights and fistfights on top of trains and stuff, a lot of archaeology is oh, this very important, this this stunning discovery of the large earth mound? What was it used for burial or other ceremonial purposes five hundred years ago. I'm not saying it's not interesting at all. I'm obviously reading the book,

but you know, I'm not loving it. I'm not loving it. And there's a little too much of the guy who writes the book, like there's so many dangerous snakes everywhere. I'm like, look, dude, as long as you're not getting kowala lamidia, you know you're gonna be okay. All right, you can handle the fair delance, which is a form of a type of pit viper. That's right, Kowala lamidia. You got to be careful, folks. It's out there from

their puddles of little kawala urine. So it's an important safety tip for those of you wandering down to Australia sometime. Let's see. But if you're looking for a great book recommendation, you know, I recently read Endurance about the Shackleton Voyage, and I had I knew this story is one of these things where I knew the story really well. But man, that book is incredible and I recommended it through my dad.

My dad loved it, So I really really recommend if you're looking for something that's just going to be a kind of a fun read that's timeless Ernest Shackleton's Voyage and the title of the the book is Endurance. I forget the author's name, but it's a great it's a great, fun and historically accurate read. Tommy. Tommy writes, Buck, take a look at that and tell me that media hype isn't driving something that will ultimately be a problem for

a lot of children. He's writing me about transgender activists talking to kids. Yeah, I mean, I think this is brainwashing for our kids. I think it's really bad. I'm very concerned about it. I wish the left would stop being so crazy when it comes to I mean, it's one thing to promote transgenderism in different ways for adults,

it's another thing to promote transgenderism to little kids. No one out there, there is not a single medical professional who can really tell you what the long term effects of gender transition hormones for a teenager would be because it's such a new practice, so it's not actually really feasible for anyone to say, well, in twenty years, you'll actually be happy you did this, or you won't have a whole slew of severe health risks. And they have

no idea. They're politicizing not just science, but in this case, they're politicizing medicine, which is always really damaging, and it's upsetic because people are going to suffer terrible consequences as a result of it. Key and little kids may be suffering consequences too, Keith writes, the standard Belt color system for martial arts is white, yellow, gold, orange, green, blue, purple, brown, red,

and black. Wow, that's a lot of Belts music. At the beginning of the show, I believe you've heard to it as dubstep. I searched for thirty minutes and found a different found a bunch of different versions. Can you give me the infront the version you played. I assume it's a dubstep style and has been been performed by

many artists. Thanks in advance, Keith, Keith. The music that we play is licensed music because we don't we don't want to pay for you know, it would be fun, like if if I could just pick a song that we would start out this show with. I don't know, it might be, you know, in Living Color, Cult of Personality or something. I mean that guitar riff something like that. That would be fun, but but that would cost I don't know, it would cost the show half a million,

a million dollars something like that. So instead we have license music, which can be good. It can be good, but it's produced by these companies that make license. So the answer is, my friend, you've got to just go to if you get a music licensing access, then you can find things like that, but it's not a real song that you can download or buy off of if it but I like it too, it's actually good dubsteps.

I'm glad you agree with me. You're huh. Rights Buck County is one more that agrees with you regarding athletic scholarships. Colleges for academics and sports should be an activity for a break from studies. Have the teams, but the players should come from the student body that is there to get an education. Let football start a minor league like baseball and recruit those out of high school that don't want to sit in classrooms anymore. Johan, I totally agree.

I also think you look at athletic careers for people that really are going to go pro, and a lot of them would be well served to go pro and either do part time school off off season or to go to school full time. And you know there are late twenties, early thirties, there's it's just we need to rethink this paradigm that the NC Double A is effectively a giant minor league sports franchise that uses college campuses as its incubators. It's just not It's just not the

way that it should be. And I know people get very angry at me on this one, but I'm also right. So it's fun to be right because I'm right. Team. Honor and privilege to have had you with me here in the Hut. Thank you so much for listening, Beware of angry koalas, and till tomorrow she'll tie
