Speaker 1

You are entering the freedom hunt. Biden is losing ground, and it's because people are seeing who Biden really is. Trump has been hitting back at the presumed Democrat nominee, and it looks like there's gonna be some scrambling on the left for a replacement candidate. We'll get into. That was the latest on the border crisis, Trump's dealings with Mexico, and also Kirsten Jilla Brand, the most dishonest candidate the left is thrown out there. We got that and more

coming up on The Buck Sexton Show. Bucks Sexton Remission, Decoding the news and disseminating information with actionable intelligence mag No mistake American, Great, You're a great American Again. This is the Bucks Sexton Show. Former CIA analysts, I can speak for three hours without a phone call. Try doing that. Sometimes. The president is literally an existential threat to America for three reasons. One, he is a genuine threat to our core values. And if you wondered about that, remember what

happened in Charlottesville. I never thought I'd see that happen in my lifetime. Again, you had people come climbing out of the fields and from under rocks carrying torches, contorted faces, chanting the same anti Semitic bile that was chanted in Europe and in Germany in the thirties, same exact language, carrying carrying Nazi flags, accompanied by white supremacists accompanied by the klu klux Klan. When he was asked to comment on it, he said, quote, there were very fine people

in both groups. No president of United States, Democrat or Republican has ever, ever, ever said something like that. Well, I heard Biden, who's a loser. I mean, look, Joe never got more than one percent, except Obama took him off the trash heap, and now it looks like he's failing. It looks like his friends from the left are going to overtake him pretty soon. But I heard he. You know,

his whole campaign is to hit Trump. You look at what the Obama administration did in terms of the military, in terms of security, in terms of other nations, in terms of almost everything. Much of it, now, fortunately for everybody, year has been overturned. But look, when a man has to mention my name seventy six times in the speech, that means he's in trouble. Now I have to tell you he's a different guy. He looks different than he used to. He acts different than he used to. He's

even slower than he used to be. So I don't know. But when he mentions my name that many times, I guess I should be complimented. Welcome to the buck Sex and show everybody Trump the Biden Phase one. That's where we are right now. Trump's got this guy's number. I don't think, but I don't care. I know there's this polls and all the battleground states and everything else, because the media effect right now is to create a lot of a lot of buzz and excitement about Joe Biden

the front runner. Oh, Joe Biden. He's gonna the more people know about Joe Biden, those who are at least trying to learn anything about him. Right there are some Democrats that they would vote for anything over Trump. I mean they would vote for a rabid squirrel before they would vote for Trump. I mean, they don't care who it is or what it is. Anybody but Trump. Democrats

will vote for that. So that's not really meaningful. But for those different states that actually matter in this process, where people are going to be their votes are going to be up for grabs. The question is do they have a compelling reason Ohio, Pennsylvania, Florida, Michigan, Wisconsin, maybe Colorado, maybe Nevada. Do they have a reason to vote for Biden instead of Trump? And the answer I think is quite clearly going to be that Joe Biden doesn't know

what that reason is. Joe Biden has said that he is the most progressive candidate in this race for the Democrat nomination. A stupider thing would be hard to say, but Biden manages to say even dumber things. He said today. I heard him today during a speech say this is one of his favorite lines, that President Trump is an existential threat to the United States. Literally. He said the quote was President Trump is literally an existential threat to the United States. It would be hard to think of

a stupider thing for Joe Biden to say. But like the kid who doesn't do any of the homework and then makes a fool of himself and the rest of the class, but thinks he's fooled everyone, Joe Biden thinks he's clever for saying these things. He thinks he's really hammering home his point. Trump knows that this is a guy that he's already he already he's already got his number. His number is one percent, because that's about what he was getting back in two thousand and eight. He's the

mister one percenter. I think that will stick. Joe Biden also, and you know, they they said this was an issue for Reagan. They've said this is an issue for plenty of Republicans. They said it was an issue for John McCain. So let's not play this game of oh, that's not nice. I watched Joe Biden's speech today. He has slowed down, he's he's up there, folks. And as you know, ages is an indicator, but it is not everything about somebody's vitality,

somebody's you know, somebody's energy and focus. You know. I mean I think, you know, my my parents both could easily be fifteen or twenty years younger than they are. You know, I'm very blessed in that way. You know, I know plenty of people who are incredibly sharp, incredibly with it, and you know, well into their in their seventies and their eighties. But are we asking them to

be president for four maybe eight years? You better be darn sure that person that you think is you know, a really vital and energetic sixty something year old is going to have eight years of really pique physical and mental, you know, ability and agility in order to fill those responsibilities. And Trump, I don't think anybody thinks Trump isn't full of energy. I mean what he did. I know that

I'm taking us back a little. Hear what Trump did with those rallies, multiple rallies in one day, day after day, standing up and just just going off. I mean, he is in a sense, and I'm not saying he's a genius like Einstein or something, but he is a kind of political genius. He has a he has a gift for the performance aspects and the communication aspects of politics that the reason he won the presidency, and the energy

required to display those gifts is enormous. And this is why when he called Jeb blow energy, Yeah, that really that really hit hard because it was true. Jeb was you know, please clap, you know, I just it wasn't there. There wasn't this vitality. There wasn't this sense of of of of growth and a kind of ferocity of focus and and and the agenda and the momentum of everything that he was doing and saying with Biden, today. You know, look looked like he was fading, folks. I'm it's true,

it's real. It looked like he was a guy who probably should be thinking about some other pursuits at this point. And the media just like they did with Hillary when she, you know, was sick that day and flopped into the and I mean it's really just completely lost and just flopped in the back of are and they made up something about how she had had a fever or something.

But you know, okay, seems relevant, doesn't. The same people who will tell you with diagnosing the president via some hack, some total quack that will say, oh, it will go on CNN. That's the favorite place for it. They'll put somebody on set and oh, I I'm a psychiatrist or psychologist, and I think President Trump is crazy, so he can't be president anymore. Let's invote the twenty fifth Amendment because he's crazy. Why is he crazy? Oh, because we say so.

They'll say that he's out of they will say that he is truly that President Trump is out of his mind. And they also make a big deal of his They make look, they make fun of Trump's wait all the time. They talk about how he's obees and how you know that they have no there are no boundaries when it comes to Trump. They'll trashman anyway that they can, and it's really disgusting and horrible. But the media does it all the time. You know, they said the things I

have not forgotten. I have not forgotten things they said about Trump and his daughter. People that think that they're serious journalists just covering the news he's just presenting disgusting should be ashamed of themselves for many many years to come, regardless of who's the president. It should be ashamed for the insinuations they made about Trump and his family members. They should be ashamed for trying to tear Trump down and get his family members thrown in prison. These people

are an abomination. They call themselves journalists, but they're actually just appalling. But if Trump's wait and mental state and age and all these things are fair game for the media to go at all the time, I think Biden has lost a step. I think that's real. I think that's true. It's apparent you see it. I don't think that people will say, well, Buck, the guy's been through a lot. Okay, he's been through a lot, doesn't have to be president. We don't need Joe Biden to be president.

We didn't need him in two thousand and eight. We don't need him now. I think the only person who really needs Joe Biden to be president is Joe Biden. You know. And he didn't run the last time, even though we know he kind of wanted to, and there was that that whole story, and I just want to make sure I get that. I'll go back and read the details so I don't miss this. But you know that I believe he said his son's dying wish was that he would that he would run, and that was

leaked to the media. But we're supposed to believe that it was organic and that it wasn't leaked. Of course it was leaked. Biden is the quintessential politician. Everything about this guy is what do the polls say? What do I have to say? What do I do now to win? You know, if you were casting somebody to be the shifty only aginis, I think one of you had to teach me the proper way to say that word. I've learned a lot of words by reading them and looking

at the definition, so I haven't always heard them. But then then again, when I learned them properly. You hear them on this show, you probably don't hear them in any other show, just saying Russian, little dirt off my shoulder. But Biden is that he is that He's that guy, the one politician out there that makes other politicians seem a little bit more connected and a little a little more relatable, because Biden's a political machine, always has been.

And then there are the other issues that come up, not just his age and his energy and the lack of a why why vote for Joe Biden? Exactly? Well? What is what is he going to do for America? What does he bring the table for all of his stuff about how he's going to speak differently than Trump and be more presidential? Really, the guy who has said that to black Americans that the you know it said said to an audience that that you know Republicans wanted

to put quote put y'all back in chains. I remember that. I was Joe Biden. Remember Joe Biden who said that you can't go into a what was it a seven eleven without and made his whole comment about South South Asian Americans and Americans of South Asian descent. Media always say Oh, that's just Joe being Joe. Yeah. They've said that a lot about a lot of things, haven't they. But then sometimes the truth actually comes out, like Biden has a weird, creepy, touchy sniffed the back of your

head problem. And now we've got Trump and Biden in Iowa. So that's why there's a lot of focus on this today because you got the two campaigns. You got the Lanisters and the Starks in Iowa today, and some Iowa voters had some choice words about Biden and what they think is really going on here. Play fourteen. Now, Look, Nancy is a mess. The Democratic Party is a mess. They're doing everything they can to win the election in twenty twenty. They are guilty of many crimes, many many crimes.

What they've done, they're guilty of many many crimes, and hopefully in a short period of time that'll be seen. They should never have done what they've done. And all they do is waste time on these investigations where there's no obstruction, no collusion, no nothing. And in the meantime they can get a border deal done, they can't do anything we need. In addition to the great deal with Mexico, we need them to work on illegal immigration, on lower

drug prices, on infrastructure, and they're not doing anything. They are they've come to a hall. Okay, so that was the wrong clip, but it was still a great clip. What's Trump got out the Democrats? Why don't we do this? I an idea. We're gonna take a little moment here, catch our breath, team, get get get dialed in for what's coming next year. We've got more on this Iowa showdown. We will find this clip of Iowa voters and what they think of Joe Biden and some of his weird behavior.

We will get into some more of the latest on why I don't think he's Biden's a compelling candidate, and how the Democrats are already realizing this and there will be a moment of panic. We were approaching the Democrat moment of panic on this, but then Bernie Sanders, what has he really got in the bank? And I think he's more. I think he's got greater vitality. I think he's more. He seems more energetic and more focused than Biden. I will see, even though I believe he's all than Biden,

I have to check that. I'm pretty sure he is. But I think Bernie's you know, he's got He's got plenty of plenty energy and plenty of focus. Right now, I just think he's focused on the wrong things, like you know, bringing us, letting us party like it's Moscow nineteen seventy nine or something. I don't think that's a good idea. And then we've got Kirsten Gillibrand to discuss as well. Wow, she is. She is rocketing up my list of the worst Democrats out there, I've got to

tell you. So we'll get into that a much more. Stay with me. Something that has really bothered me about Joe Biden is the way that he has responded to the allegations by women. Some men in the group are turned off by the same issue. I didn't like his idea that, okay, it's okay to just go up to a woman smell her hair and say, I mean, who, come on, who does that? Come on? Who does that? It's a fair question, isn't it. Who Who does that? Joe Biden apparently and thought it was normal for a

long time. And it's also more than anything else for me. Yeah, he's weird, okay. But another important thing is that the media was complicit in making that not an issue. They saw, they were there when Biden did all those weird things. None of the never asked any questions. A media that is hyper sensitive to the patriarchy and making sure that women's equality is foremost on everyone's mind all the time, never thought, you know, maybe that maybe he shouldn't get

so handsy with people all the time. And not even just a little handsy, I mean the whole sniffing, the kissing the top of the head and sniffing the head thing. Not something that normal people would do, and in the situations that he did it, but he was Joe Biden, and it was important to the media at the time that he was able to be Obama's stalwart right hand man, and so they made it all fine. They didn't make an issue of it. Trump is saying that he would

rather run against Biden than anybody else play sixteen. No, I'd rather run against I think Biden than anybody. I think he's the weakest mentally, and I like running against people that are weak mentally. I think Joe is the weakest up here. The other ones have much more energy. I don't agree with their policies, but I think Joe is a man who was I call him one percent Joe because came along, he didn't do very well. That's true.

I think that's where he's gonna be. He's gonna be at some point history is going to be too much. There'll be too many people that recognize that Joe Biden was never really the candidate that Democrats now are pretending he is. And then there's going to be an opening, folks. There's a reason you have this mass of Democrats that are out there looking for their looking for their chance. You know, I don't see Bernie Sanders. Maybe now is we'll a getting the prediction game a little bit. I

don't see Bernie Sanders surging. I don't see Bernie Sanders going to the top of the pack. Yeah. I don't see that he's gonna stay where he is because his support is pretty baked in. The only threat to Bernie Sanders is from Elizabeth Warren, who has been surging, and she could take the Bernie lane. You know, these different candidates have lanes that they will be able to run in. I think that she could take the Bernie lane, and she's making some headway there, she really is. But the

establishment Democrat Lane. That's what could be open as soon as they come to this recognition that Joe Biden is just not enough, not going to be able to do it, not gonna do it, not prudent, And maybe who's it going to be? Kamala Harris, Corey, Booker, Buddha Judge. If you're asking me right now as Biden drops, who is going to who's gonna rise up the ranks the fastest?

I think, I think the I think it's got to be May repeat which I know you're talking about an outlier candidate here, but I think May Repeats more likely to you know, he's got the he's got a you know, a resume that people aren't going to be able to to scoff at. And he does bring diversity the Democratic Party is very concerned with. And that's what I think might happen here, Folks. I'm telling you Biden's not going to make it through the summer as the front runner,

Mark my words. He's not going to make it through the summer as the front runner. That that I'm I'm confident in, and my prediction is wrong. We will just edit it out of the podcast and nobody will ever know that it happened. Let's talk about Berney coming up. What I mean by democratic socialism is creating a government that works for everybody, not controlled, either legislatively or politically,

by a handful of very wealthy people. Now, you know, one of my favorite question to ask is about Democrats, but about anything, is what does he or she mean? What is this person? It's it's not just what they said, it's what are they trying to say? And here you have Bernie Sanders, who is is still this beloved figure in progressive circles, and he does at least have the courage of his convictions to say what he wants to

do on a policy level. You know, he wants to be college, free college, He wants to free this free that somebody else will pay for it, all this stuff, all these things, and Bernie Sanders gets away as a result, I think, with just spewing nonsense all the time. A government that works for everyone? What is now you could say, buck, that's just that's just a slogan. But but is it that's not supposed to just be a thing that's said to get people into a government. Well maybe it is,

I don't know. But a government where tureveryone. How how you know? He says this, And I would like to drill a little bit deeper into this. What is the government and why do we think that the governments supposed to work for everybody we we work for? Do we mean like in your employee, or do we mean that it's most to function properly? Because if anyone thinks that the government is really that that government employees think of themselves as your your employees, you the American people, it's

often not really the case. They think that they are are providing a service and a role, that we need them and we're lucky to have them. They do not they know, public servants have gotten a very grandiose view of themselves in recent decades. I'm just telling you I used to be one. I know, I know, I speak of what I know, but that the government also belongs to a few billionaires like like like what? Like how? Who?

This is just all? This is all pifle. This is not in any way intellectually serious stuff that he offers up. And you know, the talking points about these issues. You know, people would say, well buck, what about Trump and make America great again? Into this? I say, okay, Trump was said he wanted to fight political correctness, and he has and does. And it's pretty clear that means. That means when people say you can't say that, he says, actually, I can, and I'm going to and you can't stop me.

Trump said he wanted to build a wall. He's tried. He's fighting for that. He's pushed different things. He's tried to end DOCCA. You know, that was a real idea. Those are real things that he's trying to do that he has been doing. He wanted to deregulate so the economy would grow. He has done that masterfully. It's one of the best things about this administration, the deregulation. He was gonna cut taxes. He did. Now that's pretty standard Republican fair, but he did cut taxes. He's gonna repeal

and places Obamacare. That didn't really happen as plan, but you know, they're making some headway on prescription drug coverage. And there were real ideas behind that campaign. We're not going to fight stupid wars in the Middle East. We haven't fought a stupid war in the Middle East because of Trump yet, unlike his two predecessors. So there were

real ideas. You know, with with Bernie Sanders. I feel like a lot of what he says and a lot of what people get excited about, you know, the real policy proposals he puts forward are never going to happen, and the things that he repeats all the time don't really mean anything. Here's here's to give you a sense of what I'm talking about. You know, free college for all that's never gonna happen. You're never gonna find a way to pay for it. It's not gonna happen. Single

payer is also not going to happen. These are things that just won't happen. And those are the ideas that he's putting forward, and the more general statements that he makes, I don't even know what he's trying to what he's trying to make happen in the country, things like, oh, the govern's gonna work for everybody. It's not going to belong to the billionaires anymore, the billionaire class, the millionaires, the billionaires. I mean, this is the the broken record

of Bernie Sanders. Millionaires of billionaires. Woko wok up, woko wok up. Millionaires and billionaires woo wok up, woko wok up. You know, like the scratching on the that was the that was me doing in scratch with the vinyl. You know, DJ Buck No, nobody, nobody, nobody's with me on this one. Fine, whatever, But yeah, Bernie's just saying a lot of stuff that when you really think about it, it's kind of just balder dash. It's malarkey speaking of malarkey. The queen of malarkey,

on economic issues, on social on really everything. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez AOC also the name of a French restaurant that I very much enjoyed in New York City. Uh, different kind of AOC. AOC has had to defend being a socialist who wants a little more cash for herself. Oh wow, look at this, but a shock. AOC was asked about how she makes one hundred and seventy four thousand dollars

years nice. That's a nice salary. That's good stuff. Members of Congress paid pretty well, one hundred and seventy four grand. I could use one hundred and seventy four grand salad. It sounds like fun, sounds like a good thing. I definitely when I was Ao Ao ses Age, I was not making one hundred and seventy four k, that's for sure, and I think I was making like a third of that, And she says that, you know, this is the way it should be. But people are asking some questions. I

got some questions for AOC play eleven. We should be fighting for a fifteen dollars minimum wage pegged to inflation, so that everybody in the United States with a salary with a wage gets a cost of living increase. Members of Congress, retail workers, everybody should get a cost of living increases to accommodate for the changes in our economy. You can vote against pay increases all you want. It's in my opinion, voting against a pay voting against a it's not even like a raise. It's a cost of

living adjust. Forty five hundred dollars is like not even a raise, it's a cost of living. Guy jots bad, Like everybody should get like more money for all their things, because like more money for people who are doing jobs. Jobs are like so hard and they're like really upsetting to like have to do them. So everybody's just get like more money. Look, you can say, oh back, come on, some one member Congress. Probably the most from a media and news perspective in terms of being able to set

the agenda for the news cycle. AOC is probably the most powerful member Congress right now. And she like doesn't understand like the basics of economics or like how like you can't just be like everyone gets a raise because like raises are good, because they'll be like downside to this, like people will get fired and businesses will go under her and doesn't think about that stuff. Though oh Man left. They love some AOC, that's for sure, but she has

trouble with the numbers now. Even if Democrats accepted my assessment of Biden, their their front runner, their their flavor of the of the not just the month of the quarter of perhaps the first two quarters of the year. It's good to be Biden. It was Biden even before he was running. They're all so set on this guy, even if they agreed with me, And there are some Democrats. In fact, I spoke earlier today to Governor Patterson, who is a Democrat from New York. He was a governor

of New York State for a while. I spoke to him on a radio show they had me on as a guest. It was hosted by my friend Joe Concha and Governor Patterson for the day, and I think that what he said about Biden, he largely agreed with me that Biden's a much weaker candidate than a lot of people realize that. When he says things like he's the most progressive candidate in the race, it's like he doesn't know what progressive means. Or maybe that's the most charitable

interpretation we can come up with. But Biden might be their only shot because when you look around at the rest of the field, and if he's the only shot, they're gonna lose. Biden has their only shot, means they got no shot. But if you look around the rest of the field, Wow, it is If I were a Democrat, I would be very discouraged. You have Kirsten Gillibrand, and she's rising up the ranks for me of the most

intellectually odious of all of these Democrat candidates. I mean, she's rapidly becoming the one that I just find to be the biggest phony, the biggest faker. As I have said, Gilla brand exists, so that Warren is not the most inauthentic candidate in the race. So I guess in that way, Jilla Brand is playing a role. But whereas at least with Hillary Clinton, and you know that Jilla Brand is trying to write also a senator from New York, and I think she's very much trying to mold herself in

the Hillary esque path. You know, is trying to go in where you breaking that glass ceiling woman candidate all this. But Hillary, you knew that she had no core conviction and was totally disingenuous. But that's because her beliefs were up for the highest bidder that you know, you could rent Hillary's powers as a politician as long as you were going to write her and her foundation or her husband really big checks to show up and give a

prepared speech that somebody else wrote for her. You could push her in whatever direction you wanted based on that. So you knew that, you know, with Hillary, her disingenuousness was transactional in nature. With Jilla Brand, I start to think that maybe she likes to be a phony for the sake of phoniness. Maybe Jilla Brand is intellectually dishonest for the kicks that she gets from being intellectually dishonest.

This is somebody who has gone from being very favorable to gun rights because she needed to be to run on that part of New York. Denouncing the n RAYS the worst organization in America. A lot of these democrats I would know, big phonies, but Jillibrand also is on the issues. Strikes me as not only did she do that whole thing gay rights. You know where she was dancing and had the shirt on and everything. You've seen the video, it was amazing. If you haven't seen the video,

it's really quick, you've just got to. You gotta find it on Facebook or on Twitter, you know gay rights. Oh yeah, that's she happened to just be dancing with her gay right shirt on and someone just happened to be videotaping her when she yelled out gay rights. She is she is very intellectually dishonest. She says things that I don't think she really believes, but it doesn't matter, and she doesn't care. She's she knows what she thinks she's supposed to say to get what she's trying to get.

And you know, she she had this for this shocking formulation today of comparing people who are comparing judges who would be pro life, and how that's just we can't tolerate that as a belief anymore to a judge who would be a racist, for example, and what is outside acceptable discourse. Effectively, we're getting a window into Kirsten Jilabrand's

Overton window play clip twenty three. I think there's some issues that have such moral clarity that we have as a society decided that the other side is not acceptable. Imagine saying that it's okay to appoint a judge who's racist or antisemitic or homophobic, telling asking someone to appoint someone who takes away basic human rights of any group

of people in America. I think that we are We've I don't think those are political issues anymore, and so I believe that for all of these issues, they are not issues that there is a fair other side. There is no moral equivalency when you come to racism, and I do not believe there's a moral equivalency when it comes to changing laws that NY women reproductive freedom. Oh look,

well she just managed there. At the end, Here is a senator from New York who wants to be the next president the United States who's saying that a judge who is a racist is as unacceptable as a judge that say would be in favor of protecting life in the womb. And there's she said, no moral equivalency. But there is what she's really saying, and this is a common formulation among the left, among liberals, is there is no other side. You should not even acknowledge another side

to these issues. You should you should stamp them out. You should eradicate them, not allow them to have their say, kick them out of the public square, destroy them, boycott them, imprison them if you have to. This reminds me of the left's approach to Masterpiece cake Shop, which i'll talk to you more about later this week. There's another lawsuit there.

And the left's approach to dealing with people of your traditional Christian belief is because because it seems that the LGBT community on the left is so oppressed at this stage of the game still that there is a concerted effort with a media cheering it on, to ruin this guy's life and bankrupt him because he did not want to write things on a cake that he did not believe. That's quite a standard of what constitutes oppression in American society.

But that's a conversation we'll have to have later. On in the week. Jilla Brand, though, shows you who she really is here. She thinks that anybody who is pro life is morally on the same plane Tantamount two might as well be a Nazi, a KKK member, or a bigot. Now is she so stupid as to really think that's a position that she could hold and defend? I don't think so. But does she feel like that's a good way to establish is her bona fidez with the far

left radical Democrat base? Now? Yeah, I think so. And that's why she says it. It's for the effect. She doesn't really believe it, but she knows that it will send a signal to those that she hopes will vote for her and support her that she's with them in whatever way that she can be. I'm with her with Hillary? Remember that? Wow? What a that was In many ways a microcosep for Hillary's entire campaign boring, uninspiring, and just worthless.

In fact, that could be the mantra for Gillibrand's campaign, boring, uninspiring and generally worthless. So as much as I sit here in judgment of how Joe Biden is not some fantastic candidate, which we all know, and I've been you know, I've been consistent on this one all along. I did get I thought maybe the left could hold up Betomania a little longer and a little more so. I might

have overshot on that one. I just like was going to just bring the whole country together and play a song for them, because I'm the guy at the fraternity party who always has an acoustic guitar. And I'm just friends with your girlfriend, but I want to sing her a song. But I don't want you to be in the room when I sing it. But we're just friends, you know what I'm talking about. He's that guy. He's that guy. Yeah, I over I overshot on Beddo a

little bit. But on Biden, I've been ride along. He's Trump. It's almost like Trump listens to this show. I've been saying Biden was a was a one percent or I've been saying that guy I could never get above one percent. Now he's going to be president. It's ridiculous. I went to Hey, and I could go on this Biden stuff all day. I went to hear when I was still in the CI, I went to hear his speech, you know,

as a private citizen. I went to hear a few candidates, and it was like Biden, Kucinich, and some other guy that nobody remembers. That's who was showing up because and it was like you could get fifty people in a room and it was an accomplishment because nobody cared Biden was in Kucinich territory when he ran before on his own as a candidate. Now now the Democrats think that he's become because he was the vice president. I mean,

let's be honest, anybody could be the vice president. Oh they really The job description is to have a beating heart in case of That's basically the job description. And now they're telling us that Biden's but it's maybe he's better. Is he better than Jilla Brand? Yeah? I think so. Her name Kirstin Jill is it Gilla Brand or Jilla Brand, Kirstin or Kristin. Her name is tough man. Her name is tough. And that's not the only that's not my only objection to her, because people make fun of names

are dumb. I will say that, but her name is hard to say. We'll be right back said that. When you think of it, Mexico is doing more for the United states as of now than Congress and then the specifically the Democrats. They have to get direct together. They have to work and get something done because you've got a tremendous problem at the border if people pouring in and it means crime, it means drugs, it means so

many other things. Well, it's really simple, and the Democrats are doing absolutely nothing while the Mexicans are stepping up working with the President to try and stop the illegal flow of immigrants coming into the country. Democrats in Congress for the longest time refuse to even acknowledge the fact there was a problem. Now we're starting to see them acknowledge there was a problem, but doing absolutely nothing to fix it, which may even be worse now they know

there's a problem and they still do nothing. They're so focused on attacking this president and trying to beat him up because they have no message, they have no agenda, that they can't even look at the real problems we have and do anything to try to fix them. If we had a real press corps, meaning that people that call themselves journalists view their role as getting the facts,

speaking truth to power, holding power accountable. All the things that journalists pretend they are that they are not overwhelmingly, not all of them, but most a vast majority of them. If we had a real press corps, you know what question would be asked of Democrats? Not what do you think about Trump's handling of the border? No, no, no no, What should be asked of all the Democrat candidates for president so that the American people can really know what's

going on here? What's gonna be asked? What should be done about the border? What actions would you, as president take that are different from and better than whatever Trump has done so far? And that would be very interesting, wouldn't it? Because Democrats their first instinct, and this is it's a form of a it's almost like Turette's that

they can't control it. There's a reactionary feeling that they have whenever they have an opportunity to talk about anything that they can relate to Trump, it just Trump bad, Trump bad Orange man. That they cannot help it, and that would be their first reaction is that Trump is terrible and he's done all these horrible things, and oh here here's um Joe Biden doing exactly that. Played twenty two. This is a guy who does everything to separate and

frighten people. It's about fear and loathing. It's about what he calls people, the names he calls them. No president has done something like that for God's sake. I mean, it's bizarre and it's damaging, and so I think he's genuinely a threat to our core values and he's a threat to our standing in the world. On the D Day ceremonies, the D Day ceremonies, it was astounding to me that he was tweeting attacks on everybody, from the

Mayor of London to bet Middler. He found time to go after bet Middler, for God's sake, in the middle of the D Day ceremonies for real, not a joke. Okay, these people also all go after him all the time. I think Democrats are just still upset that now there's a Republican president that doesn't think that manners dictate that He just sits there and takes it quietly all the time while Pelosi trashes him. Pelosi wishes that he was put in prison, knowing that that was going to make

its way into the press. But yeah, he's supposed to sit there quietly. I'm not supposed to have an opinion about this. What is Joe Biden's opinion on the border. Notice, they like to talk about Trump separates people because they always wanted a family The one thing where they've been able to get this administration to back down and change courses on family separation at the border, and so you'll hear a lot more of that. That is where they've

managed to get Trump to change course on something. Because the outrage over that was, oh my gosh, it was a level it was a level eleven out of ten. I mean, people were completely freaked out about this. Meanwhile, across the country, people are separated from their children all the time, whenever they're put in prison. That happens constantly. It's a sad thing, but it is a reality of

life for a lot of Americans. But if you don't believe the crossing in the country illegally is a crime, well then you don't think there should be any punishment for that crime. That's what Democrats should be asked, is illegal immigration wrong? They'll probably say yes because they know if they say no, then it would be well, why don't you just say then that you're an open borders party, So they'll say yes, illegal immigration is wrong, But then they should be asked, why is it wrong? What is

the problem with illegal immigration? They just say, well, we have laws. Say okay, but if there's no downside, then why do we have that law. You can't let them escape with just the pretense of legalism. Right, Oh, well, it's bad because there's a law against it. Well why is there a law against it? Because if it's not bad for any reason beyond the law, we should just repeal that law. They won't be able to answer it. The Democrats. I've tried this with many Democrats and they

get very flustered and very angry. Oh well, they they do not cause any crime. They are not a drain on public resources. They do the jobs Americans won't do that. You know, we're a nation of immigrants. They're the same as our you know, our parents and grandparents who came here legally, et cetera, et cetera. I mean, these are all the Democrats talking points, where where is the downside? They don't admit there is any downside, So shouldn't they have to then admit that they are an open borders,

open borders political party. If we had a real press corps that would be raised, that would be clear. But we don't. We have a bunch of Democrat lackeys, generally from very mediocre intellectual backgrounds, who run around parroting each other and patting each other on the backs for their bravery in front of one another. But Lindsay Graham understands that we are at a breaking point at the border and it's no longer okay to sit back and allow the status quo. It hasn't been okay for months, but

now it's really getting out of control. Here's what the Senator has to say, Play twenty four. There has to be a breaking point. We've reached the breaking point at the border. I can not imagine what it's like to go to work every day where half the people are dedicating their time to dealing with family members, miners, and all that goes with trying to deal with six hundred

thousand people in your custody. Half of our resources are being directed away from border security to dealing with housing people and trying to meet their basic health care needs. The breaking point has long passed at the border. This is not sustainable. It's not fair to those who are the uniform of the United States at border patrol, health and Human Services, and all the other agencies into the NGOs who are helping God bless you. It isn't fair

to our border patrol. It's not fair to the federal officers who are are entrusted with the powers to enforce the law. They're being turned into a welfare agency at our southern border, which is not what they signed up for. That is not the mission that they're supposed to have. And I think they're rightly sick of the whole thing. I think they're tired of it, and they should be. But one of the big hurdles to making any progress on this issue is the dishonesty around the way Democrats

debate on this. Remember, migrant caravans are scare tactic. It's all Fox News lying. They said, it's all just meant to get support going and turn out the base in the election. Oh no, the caravans are shown up now all the time. Turns out they do have buses and trains in Mexico after all. So that was a lie that they were, and it was an obvious lie. But that was a lie. And then they said that there was no crisis at the border. That was a lie. But this is one of the most obvious and annoying lies.

The Democrats have been telling about the border of this whole time. And it came from the testimony of Kevin mcaleen in today where the Homeland Security Secretary said that, and this was in front of this was Senate testimony today that of the so called asylum seekers that are crossing at our southern border, that people say they're not illegal, they're allowed to seek asylum, ninety percent are skipping their

court dates. Ninety percent skip their court dates in violation of the law and should be deported immediately upon skipping that court date. As we know, that's not happening. They're at the resources, there's not the political will, but they're scamming folks of them are. The fact that they show up and say they want asylum and then don't show up in court means that this was the plan all along. And I knew it was the plan all along. I've

been telling you it's the plan all along. But Democrats and in the media and on Congress, oh no, they're going to show up for their court dates. Like we're all a bunch of idiots, Like it's not clear what the scam is here. You know, this is just sure put us all put all these illegals on the honor system, that they're going to show up, let them into America, but then put them on the honor system and then pretend that, oh, yeah, they're gonna they're gonna fulfill their

end of the bargain. What I mean, are we all supposed we're really supposed to be that Democrats think we're that dumb or they're just that dishonest. I guess that's what it is. They don't show up. It's a scam. They're scamming the system. It's very clear that's what is happening here. It's been obvious all along, but now we've got the numbers. Now you've got the head of DHS saying it's folks, these people are lying to border patrol. They are lying to skip the line for immigration purposes.

And then they're going to turn around. And you know what, the just get ready for this. What's really going to be the moment that you know this is this has come all the way around, is when you have demands from Central American so called asylum seekers who skipped their court date, who lied, who broke the law, who abused the system to get what they wanted, which was to stay in this country. And then they'll turn around. You

know what they'll say. They won't say thank you, because they'll they'll have been in doctrine or even further by the left. They'll be We'll be told that if we don't grant them citizenship and amnesty, we're being racist. We're being racist. That's when you'll know this whole thing has finally reached its conclusion. They lied and lied and lied, broke the law, broke the law. Democrats aided and embedded this whole process, and then just give it time. They

will be demanding amnesty and eventual citizenship. And if you don't want to give it to them, and you don't want to reward their behavior, you're a bad person, You're a bigot, you're a xenophobe. That is what the left will say. You know, I'm right, this is where this is all heading unless Trump can get this thing under control and the John Deane's festim John Deane's been a

loser for many years. So I've been watching him on one of the networks that is not exactly Trump oriented, and I guess they paid him a lot of money over the years. Now, John's been a loser for a long time. We know that I think he was disbarred and he went to prison. Other than that, he's doing a great job. The last time I appeared before your committee was July eleventh, nineteen seventy four, during the impeachment

inquiry of Richard Nixon. In many ways, the Mueller Report is to President Trump what the so called Watergate roadmap officially titled the Grand Jury Report and Recommendation concerning Transmission of Evidence to the House of Representatives was to President Richard Nixon. Stated a little differently, Special Council Muller has provided this committee with a roadmap. John Deane testified yesterday

and nobody cared. Folks. I don't even think CNN picked up the testimony live, which should tell you a lot about how this whole thing was going over. Nobody cared. Democrats are so preposterous with this whole obstruction situation today. I mean that the latest news is that you have some agreement. What is this now that that the House votes to hold the House has voted to hold bar

and McGann in contempt. Somebody's gonna have to come up with an explanation as to why the House voting to hold Barn McGan in contempt, and Democrats in the House aren't even clear they want to subpoena Muller or ask

for him to testify. This is very straightforward. Anyone involved in this process, this so called oversight, we know it's just political nonsense on Capitol Hill, But anyone in Congress, any Democrat who says that they just want to get answers, they want the truth, and they're so concerned about abstruction and all this other stuff, and they talk about the Muller report a lot, but they don't insist, and I mean insist, that Mueller go and answer questions on Capitol Hill.

He's the single most important figure in this entire process, has more background and more time on the issue than anyone else. Yet they only want to put Barr and McGann on Capitol Hill for this partisan show trial. They don't have any interest in talking to Muller. What else do you have to know? What else has to be made clear in this process to show just how obviously political the whole thing is. There were some fun moments yesterday.

You had, oh, here we go, by the way, on my point about Barr and McGann and the vote in the House. Here's John Ratcliffe talking about how this is just this is preposterous play. Hey, this this is a show vote. This is about trying to save face. This is about Jerry Nadler trying to appease a Democratic base seventy percent of which says they should try and impeach Donald Trump, when seventy percent of the American people say,

cut the impeachment garbage. Let's get on with infrastructure and immigration and all the things that Democrats promised us they would do if they were in charge of the House. Yep. But instead you have Democrat members of the House acting like they're just being respectful of the problem. We're just trying to get the facts. We're being respectful of the process. Yeah, they're being so respectful the process. They're not asking Muller to testify at all. And they brought John dene down

at what does he have to do with anything? I mean, who gives a you know what about what John Deane has to say. I don't even think Democrats care, but the press. I think that the Democrat media is so in the ear of the various Democrat members of the House that control these committee processes that they must have convinced them. Yeah, yeah, that's right. Watergate impeachment, that's what

you want to go with, that's the ticket. Matt Gates was having some fun with this yet as a big fat target, and Matt Gates was having some fun with it.

Yesterday I play seven. We sit today in this hearing with the ghost of Christmas past because the Chairman of the Committee has gone to the Speaker of the House and sought permission to open an impeachment inquiry, but she has said no. And so instead of opening the impeachment inquiry into Donald Trump, which is what the Chairman wants to do and what I presume a majority of Democrats want to do, we're here reopening the impeachment inquiry potentially

into Richard Nixon, sort of playing out our own version of that seventies show. And what I really regret it is here as a prop You are functionally here as a prop because they can't impeach President Trump because seventy percent of Democrats want something that's sixty percent of Americans don't. So they're in this no win situation. And you sit before us here with no knowledge of a single fact on the Muller Report, on a hearing entitled lessons from

the Muller Report. A hearing entitled lessons from the Muller Report, and Democrats clearly have no interest in Muller testify. That's because Muller would get shredded. This is a big problem for Democrats. This is this is an issue that I don't know they'll be able to get around and Republicans. I think she'd be making a lot more noise about this. Mueller is not going to be able to answer certain things to anyone's satisfaction. Who knows what's gone on with

this investigation? You know he's not going to be answered, will be able to answer. Why do you change a transcript so that it seemed more nefarious than it was for your report? Why would you do that? Why would you leave out that certain people were sources for the government, or why would you you know, there was so much obvious editing, and the editing always goes in one direction,

which is negative for Trump? Why do that? If the information about Trump was so brazen and so bad, why would you have to effectively fabricate even worse stuff in different places and not speak about, say, the dossier, in any meaningful sense in the entire report. How can you take a report like that seriously? We'll talk about the IG report later. My friend Louis Gohmert's going to be joining, so we will get into his expectations. I'll tell you this.

He actually his expectations are pretty low. So we'll ask the good congressman why that is. And we'll get to that coming up here in just a moment. For a long time, for many years, people tried to get what we got in a period of a couple of days, and they couldn't get it. That's the difference. They couldn't get it. So Mexico, we're getting along with them. Great. They're moving right now, six thousand soldiers to their southern border. Whoever heard of that? Do you think we had that

two weeks ago? Two weeks ago, I'll tell you what we had. We had nothing. And the reason we had nothing is because Mexico felt they didn't have to give us that. I don't blame them, but this is actually ultimately going to be good for Mexico too, and it's good for the relationship of Mexico with US. Meanwhile, the media is trying to take this victory away from Trump exactly as I told you they would. They will not.

They cannot allow the narrative to get out to grow that Trump knows what he's doing, has some real ideas, has some ability to negotiate, that all these smarmy libs and establishment figures just simply don't have. Oh you mean, maybe he managed to do something worth while in this Mexico situation, and that he did it despite all the so called consensus folks out there who said this was a terrible idea. What a surprise. The border is an

urgent issue, it is a true crisis. Finally Democrats agree it's a crisis, but then they just play games with what kind of crisis? What kind of crisis is it that they are willing to do nothing about? And here's the classic sam vinagrat. I don't know where they found her. I don't know how this woman managed to become a trusted voice on national security over at CNN. I've never heard her say anything intelligent on television. Maybe she has.

I've just never Everything I've ever heard or say was dumb. It's kind of like that Asha Rangappa lady from the FBI who teaches counterintelligence at Yale or something means nothing A lot of these programs are really just holding facilities for libs during a Republican administration, and it's all you know who you know, and it's a joke. Vinagrad, though, has said amonga she accused me once of of tweeting like a Russian bot, which I thought was really funny

on Twitter. Oh yeah, that's right, because it's all because you're not a crazy person that thinks that everything is Russia related. But her analysis on this is classic CNN. You want to get on er at CNN, find a way to make Trump the bad guy. Whatever his victory is, whatever Trump manages, find a way to make it bad, bad Trump, Orange Man bad. That's the mandate. That's what you have to do if you're going to go on

air at CNN. Here is what missus Vinograd has to say about Trump's negotiation and tariff imposition threat with Mexico Play thirteen. This is rewarding bad behavior. It is positive for the US economy and the Mexican economy and the global economy that these teriffs are not going to effect. Well, what's happened is President Trump acted like a bully and the Mexicans. We to do something so that he could

say that he got a victory. It is likely that he will use us as a tool down the road because he can say that he got a reward from it. Trump is a bully. He'd like such a bully. Yeah, bully. These are tools of statecraft. Are we bullying North Korea by having dramatic sanctions in place? Again? Are we bullying them? Are we just doing something that we should do. Mexico could do a lot more to prevent hundreds of thousands of Central Americans from traversing their territory and entering the

United States. They could do a lot more, So we are trying to incentivize them. Trump is trying to incentivize them exactly to that end. That's bullying? Or do we just let countries do whatever they want to us? We let countries treat our relationship as though it is not particularly meaningful to them, that our requests for assistance, in our request for partnership can be easily ignored and ignored

with impunity. Is that really how we're supposed to go? Yes, it is true that Trump now will view this as a tool for other things, and it's going to as I said, it will put a little more of a wind in his sails on the terif fight with China. Here is what he said about that Plate twelve. The China deal is going to work out. You know why

because of tariffs. Because right now China is getting absolutely decimated by companies that are leaving China going to other countries, including our own, because they don't want to pay the tariffs. And in my opinion, based on a lot of effects and a lot of knowledge, China is going to make a deal because they're going to have to make a deal. A lot of countries have changed their habits because they know their next without the power of tariffs by the richest,

most successful country. You know, we picked up trillions of dollars in worth since I've been elected. China has lost many, many trillions of dollars. They're way behind. They we're going to catch us. Had a democrat gotten in, namely the one we're talking about, China would have caught us by the end of her term. They're nowhere close. They'll never catch us. Not with what I'm doing, They'll never catch us. We'll see if the President's right or not. Time will tell.

Is the massive gamble maybe really in some ways the biggest gamble of his presidency because he's gone against the consensus. People have been saying along, oh, you know, trade war, and this is terrible and you can't do this. Well, if we get a real deal with China in place, which probably won't happen till after Trump's reelection, which I am not I'm not getting a lackadaisical about. I'm I'm not thinking that it's already done, but feeling good about

it right now for sure. But if Trump gets a deal with China, then he will have managed to defy ninety percent plus of the trade and econ experts out there and the chattering class and all the people that go on TV to talk abo walt it out. The bonds today are up there down, the stock price is up,

it's down. One thing it's funny is if you want to hear people that are usually just blathering on about nonsense that make political pundits look really smart by comparison, turn on some of the financial the financial news networks that are out there and just see the yeah, you know, all the fear of a dollar and the gold and the yen and the this and the that, and that's what made the you know, market go up or down.

They have no idea. The people I know who know the markets say these guys have no They just gotta say something. They're there to convey the information about the stock price, and they say all this other stuff around it to make it seem like I mean, they're they're almost They're like sports announcers without the entertainment value added. You know, you want to know what the score is,

you want to know what's going on. You don't You don't really need to get that in depth about how that the person viewing it seems to think that the person playing the game is thinking about playing the game. But I really do think that Trump on China is going to be I think that he's got a real shot. I'm not going to tell you it's likely. Look, the Chinese government has managed to defy international pressure and expectations for a long time. But you know who doesn't know

anything about China. I think we're quite clear about it at this point. You know who is completely and utterly clueless on the issue of China, which is not surprising because he's been wrong on every major foreign policy issue for the last forty years. As was said by former Secretary Defense Gates, who had worked for Republican and Democrat administrations, and just said this guy Biden doesn't know anything. Biden

originally said, China, you know, NBD, It's all fine. Now Biden's decided to flip the script on that plate twenty seven and let's talk a little bit about China, because China poses real challenges in the United States and some ways a real threat to the United States. But Donald Trump is only exacerbating the threat in the danger. But the reason I find myself optimistic is that point I've

been making a long time. If we do we need to do at home, if we stand up for American interest, if we invest in our people, our live our values, and work with our partners, we can outcompete China every single solitary day and every other nation in the world. This is fantasy land stuff from Biden. Let's just keep doing what we're doing and things will beat China. No, China is cheating and stealing our intellectual property, and we don't have that much of an advantage left over China.

So no, Biden. This is Biden is buffoonery, consistent, completely unrepentant buffoonery. That is his brand. This is what the Democrats are offering up as we've been discussing today on the show, so no surprise that he has flipped on China. All right, team got a special guest joining us now Congressman Louie Gomert of the great state of Texas. It's actually a great state. I'm not just say next summer radio host. Conressmen going great to have you on, sir,

Always great to be with you, Buck, Thank you. So you know you have a slightly contrarian take on the IG report. I've been hearing you know. I'm here in the swamp where I know you spend a lot of your time too, because you have to, you know, Congress and all that. But I'm here in the swamp, and the people that I'm talking to are saying, oh man, when this IG report comes out, it's gonna be all of the all of the deep state rats are gonna be leaving the sinkin ship, and it's gonna be fire

and brimstone and justice. And I mean, I'm exaggerating a little bit, but it sounds like you think that that maybe is a little too that the people's expectations are well beyond what they should be for the Inspector General report about the Russia investigation origins, What are you seeing?

What are you thinking about this? Well from the very beginning, well say, from at least after I reviewed the horwitz Ig reports, as in his role as Inspector General of the Department of Justice, he put together about five hundred pages of documented bias and prejudice and improprieties by people like Peter Struck and Lisa Page and so many others, and then concluded at the end, after five hundred pages of horrendous conduct and prejudice, he concludes, but none of

that affected anything to do with these investigations. Well, I'm sorry, that is outrageous. I told him at the hearing. Look the peers that since you gathered about five hundred pages of evidence showing how bad the Department of Justice was under the Obama administration and things that were doing, then you turn around and realize, gee, you're appointed, you were

picked by democrats. They're going to be livid. So despite all the evidence of the contrary, you let them have the final verdict that, yeah, although there's all this wrongdoing and bad mental processes, none of it affected the outcome of any of these Department of Justice investigations and that was garbage. And so then I started hearing, just as you said, Buck, so many people around here in the swamp saying, hey, yeah, well, don't worry though, that was

just the first one. The second one that has Strock and all these other wrongdoers, it's gonna be brutal. They're all gonna be prosecuted. And actually, Buck, I'm looking at an office of the Inspector General US Department of Justice posting as of May twenty nine, twenty nineteen, and it doesn't identify by the person, but it says this investigation was initiated upon the receipt of information with the FBI alleging him then, a then FBI deputy assistant director had

numerous contacts with members of the media in violation FBI policy. Additionally, it was alleged to Dad may have disclosed law enforcement or other sensitive information media without authorization. And it goes on to say that the Inspector General has now concluded that the deputy assistant director that I've been told privately it's talking about a guy named Peter Struck. But the ig investigation concluded that the deputy assistant director engaged in

men's conduct when the DAD. One disclosed the media to the media. The exists of information that had been filed under seal in federal court in violation of eighteen USC. Four or one contempt of court, two provided without authorization FBI law Enforcement sensitive information reporters on multiple occasions, and three had dozens of official contacts with the media without authorization and violation of FBI policy. The OIG or the

Officer Inspector General found at the deputy assistant. All right, Congress, and what's what's the summary version here? What's the what happens the OG has OIG has completed this investigation and is prosecution of the dad was declined. That's the end. Right, So you're saying, I don't think Dad was declined, and if that's struck, that man should be doing time for what we know of all the manipulations and abuses of

his office. And so if this is just the beginning of what's going to be trickling out from the Inspector General, I'm still scared to death for the ongoing little experiment and self government we have here now. Congressman, I think you're right that it's very unlikely there'll be prosecutions of senior government officials. Well, no, there are. I think there should be. Well, well, I'm not saying there shouldn't be,

but I think it is unlikely there will be. But I would think that the Inspector General report under Bill Barr, who was not in this role before it was Attorney General Sessions, who had been sidelined in many ways, will at least get closer to the truth, and that that truth out in the public's site finally and for the first time, may have some really nasty implications for Democrats and their whole Russia collusion hoax narrative. Do you think

that that's true? Are you worried that even that won't be If nobody goes to jail, then they will be able to just pick up unimpeded. Uh. They will keep coming after Trump and his family and anybody that's in contact with him. And the only way to stop this

garbage is for somebody to go to jail. And if that's not going to happen, then I'm telling you we're just as much trouble as we were before we found out about the Russia hopes Congress, before we let you get back to actually writing legislation and doing all the things that want us to do here in the swamp days, it's more stopping or trying to stop, trying to prevent legislation. Sure, but but I want to ask you about this deal that the President says he has with Mexico and then

in response to the tariffs. Do you have any insight into that for us? You get some people saying there it isn't a deal, or there's nothing new, or the deal isn't finalized. What's what's going on with this? Well, there are some people that were part of the Homeland Security before and they did have a very minimal agreement, you know, three little entering points where they had some agreements, some arrangement with what could be done with Mexico. But

what has been agreed to is now huge. It's many, many multiples of what the prior Homeland Security had and it will be a tremendous help. So it's a big deal. I know some even Democrats as well as some that worked for Christen Nielsen are saying, ah, there's nothing new, we had a deal. Now, they didn't have anything like this. Buck. This is big, it's new, and it's going to be very helpful. Despite the Democrats' best efforts to stop it.

Congress and Louis Gohmert, everybody down to Texas congreson Gohmert always appreciate you coming by the Freedom how thank you for making the time for us, sir, my pleasure Buck, thank you, all right, team, We'll be right back. And I think a lot of this far left political correctness is a cancer on progressivism. I think when when you talk to Trump supporters, they are not blind to his myriad flaws, but one thing they always say is he's

not politically correct. I don't think you can under overestimate how much people have been choking on political correctness and hate it. There were two studies about this recently was in the New York Times front page story a few months ago. It was also in the Atlantic about a year ago. The vast majority of liberals in this country hate it. They think political correctness has gone way too far. No one likes to be living on eggshells. When Bill

Maher's right, he's right. I mean, he's usually far left and wrong, but sometimes he says things that I gotta say, make a lot of sense. He's one of the very few, and I can't watch the show anymore. Because there's just generally the people they have that are supposed to be the conservative are usually a joke and they hate Trump, and it's really a left wing chorus that all mostly agrees. And that's just not I just that's not my thing.

I don't enjoy watching that. But on radical Islam, in the past, mar has been one of the few people who's willing to say there's a problem here, there's a real problem with this that is unique, you know, the problem of radical it's not a racist thing to say the problem of radical Islam is different. It is a bigger issue than say radical Hinduism or radical Buddhism or you know, go down the list radical Christianity in whatever

form that exists, wherever it exists. Something different about radical Islam, I'm more clear and present danger to the world. And he was willing to say that and got a lot of heat for it. But on political correctness, there are a few parts of his formulation that I think are worthwhile and he should get credit for saying things that are true, Like I hate this thing when left wingers act like Trump supporters don't know what Trump's flaws are. Not a single person I'm dealing to wage or listening

to this show is unaware of Trump's marital history. Of Trump's braggadocious nature. Is that a word? Is this braggadocio? You know whatever? His his braggart like nature, his intemperate approach to many different things. Although temperance is something that I think he actually shows, he does not. He does not drink, but people are aware of it. I don't sit here to talk to you about how wonderful everything that Trump has ever done is. We don't on the right,

We do not worship candidates. We like ideas, and now conservatives have I think more recently embraced a movement around a person. But it is the movement, it's the agenda, it's not the individual. I'm not disappointed when Trump says something that I'm like, oh, he you know, he got a little too personal there or not, because I know that that's what he does, and it's He's not perfect, but I don't expect him to be so. At least Mare admits that because you often have all these evangelical

Christians they don't even know Trumps. No, they know, but they also want a fighter for their side and their freedom, and they don't want somebody who's just going to meekly go off and say, well, you know, maybe one day the left will come and see the light. That's not going to happen. So that part of it he gets right. But then also on political correctness as a cancer on the left, it's absolutely the case. Political correctness is completely out of control across the country. I don't even know

what's acceptable anymore. And I can tell you that I've had a few incidents here or there with maybe perhaps you know, I won't get into the specifics of it, but where someone said, oh, well you can't say that, or a buck you know you'll get in trouble for that, And I just look at them and said, why the things that I say I stand behind percent. There's nothing

that I've said that on radio or on Twitter. Twitter is usually what gets people, and that's what gets me in a little bit of a hot water sometimes because I gotta throw I gotta throw it down. You know. Twitter is a place where, sure you can communicate, but it's really a place where it's just hot takes. It's just people taking swings at the other side and see what resonates. And when you take swings, people get upset about it, all right, They get upset and they say

very nasty things about you. Although I do like the the intelligence test that Twitter provides, which is that anybody, especially a journal believe it or not, they do this too. Who, in response to something I say about politics or life or whatever, comes at me with your name is stupid. This is a thing that only stupid people think and would laugh at. All right, this is something that only only a true moron goes your name well, your name is funny. Hey, you know, this is something that you

come across with leftists all the time. But they have a childish approach to debate. And one of the reason they're so reliant on political correctness is that it's a means of shutting down points of view that they don't like. You can always find some tie into a politically correct narrative on any major issue, especially with the intersectional left these days. There's a way to say, you know, if nothing else, well, buck, your opinion doesn't count because you're

a cis gender white Christian male. Well that I guess, then I'm my opinion shouldn't matter anymore then, And if I disagree with that notion, then I'm a bad person. So there are ways to weaponize political correctness in any discussion, in any debate, and it is done with a deep disingenuousness on a regular basis. Samara recognizes that, and I

think he deserves credit for recognizing that. He's also somebody who has been able to get you know, the fact that he thinks political correctness is too much, given that he always has the good graces of the left to go back to because he's with them on ninety percent of stuff, ninety five percent of stuff. But with today's left, if you're with them ninety percent of the time, but you break with them on five percent and five percent,

let's say you're either agnostic or in the middle. On you get you get on the wrong part of the news cycle, they'll want to crush you. They'll want to take you down, they'll want to finish you off, just to make an example to the others. It's madness. A normal, healthy functioning adult does not know, cannot know what the true here here, here's here's an example. I'll give you an example. I won't say what an organization. I can

tell you this. It didn't happen as a result of it has nothing to do with my radio show or or my podcast or the company's involved in that. But at a previous employer, I was censured internally for referring to a female politician as quote attractive. I'm not kidding attractive. Publicly stated that a female politician was attractive, and I was told that this was a for some of the

women at that organization. This was undermining, this was triggering, This was and I look at this and I say, are we really if when I say Mitt Romney's a handsome guy? Am I? You know? It'd be one thing if I'm run around calling people ugly, which is just a mean thing to do, and people shouldn't do that. But if I say Mitt Romney is handsome, am I? Am I triggering Mitt Romney? I don't think so. I mean, come on, Mitt, Mit is very Mit is very guys, ladies,

let's admit this. Mit is rather statues because politics may have gone kind of weak sauce. But he's at He could definitely play the presidents in any Tom Clancy book made into a movie that was the old Potomac two Step Jack. Sorry, mister President, I don't dance. Although he's not nearly his voice is not like that that was a little too much like action hero like Stallone and Cobra or something, And that's not really how Jack Ryan sounds.

I love the Jack Ryan character. The Hunt for Red October was on recently because it makes analysts in the CIA look cool. It's the only movie and the only character in history that makes CI analyst. CIA analysts look cool is Jack Ryan and the Tom Clancy stuff. Other than him, we are always like, excuse me, sir, Like excuse me, mister strong military man, can you please carry me? I think I wet myself. You know, That's that's how CI analysts are depicted in general pop culture. It's not

it's not nice, it's not fair. It's totally true. In the movie Thirteen Hours, haven't even seen in Thirteen Hours the the CIA characters in that movie, they're all like, oh, I'm sorry, I don't know what to do, Like there are mean people, the terrorists are coming for it. I'm like, why does this guy have an accent? He's American, he works in the CIA. I don't know. Why didn't you guys what I'm talking If you see that movie. I was just speaking to somebody in the milit her recently,

about this. We were having a good laugh about it about how man it was. It was a thirteen hours was a great advertisement for XPEC spec ops guys. It did not help the CIA's analyst cadre recruiting. Excuse me, there are scary man and want to hurt me. I don't know how to use my weapon. There's a lot of that going on. Back to political correctness though, Yeah, I was told that I couldn't say that a female

politician was attractive and that and that. Initially I was told that I had to make an apology, which I refused, uh, and then I was told that it would be handled. But the people involved, at least one young woman, decided to make it, make a real issue of it. And this was the real kicker, thought that for that crime, I should be fired, and anything short of that was insufficient punishment. Now to this, I say, actually, in the era of bearded, I'm gonna throw down buck. I don't

really care anymore. That was kind of funny, right, Oh, I'm gonna get fired from that job, Emma. Some of you are probably already figured out what job are talking about, But that's okay. We don't have to name names or name organizations. But I just thought to myself, Wow, here's somebody who is so really indecent and so nasty. She

doesn't know who I am. I've never met this person, by the way, still never never, well, had had one interaction with the person that was on set and in front of a dozen people and was completely professional and normal. Never no other interaction whatsoever. And the comment about attractiveness had nothing to do with her. It had to do with a politician, a public figure, and the comment was she's attractive the public figure. And I just I thought

to myself, this is where intersectional feminists have gone. Now they are They're actually cruel. There's a nastiness that's only possible because they're so deeply unhappy and so vicious, and they're so ensconced in this politically correct nonsense. You know, what if I was about to propose to my fiance saving up for a ring or saving up for a house. What if I had three kids and that was my only means of sustaining myself, I was supposed to get I should be fired for my job for saying that

a woman in public life is attractive. It didn't say like a sexy babe with a great you know something something I just said attractive? Oh no, I should be fired for that. That to me was a particularly noteworthy instance of this politically correct nonsense. Run them up because it was it was taken somewhat seriously by the authority. They had to go through all the motions, and I was I was having none of it. I'm go go

through the motions. It's just ridiculous. You want me to you want me to act like I'm I'm gonna be what we're going to invest to gate the comment? But what do you think this is? If apologizing isn't enough and the only the only thing that would satisfy the professional blood lust of this vicious little harpy that wants people fired for a comment that is completely innocuous. And you know, I'm to take this seriously. I'm to take

this seriously. Wow. Okay, that's the world we live in now, right then, And that's certainly the media landscape, isn't it. That's certainly the situation we find ourselves in across much of corporate America that unreasonable demands are now the norm, that unreasonable political correctness is expected, and just as is the case with any true tyranny which listeners to this show. No, A true tyranny is where you don't know what is

and is not acceptable because it changes all the time. Right, it's the capricious enforcement of ever changing laws and rules, not the very strict enforcement of rules, because at least you know what to do. When the rules are very strict, you can break them or not. People have had enough. I've had enough. I have had enough with it. And there will be consequences for those of us that decide that this is too much and we don't want to

live with this anymore. There won't really be consequences for Bill Maher and so that's why there needs to be some while on the one hand, I'm saying, well, we need to give him credit, sure, but he will always be welcomed back on the left. On the right, they want us erase. They want to salt the earth of our lives and our careers when we transgress the political correct politically correct gods, so to speak. And it's just wrong.

It is just wrong. And Trump, for all of his flaws, although he's been a darn good president, but for all of his flaws, personally, he's a warrior on this issue and is more effective on it than anyone else. And you know why, because he will not bend the knee. And that's really what it takes. It takes someone who won't bend the knee, and who can't be destroyed because

he won't. Because he won't bend the knee. It's a magical thing that Trump has has managed, and it has real implications, real ramifications in the war for freedom of conscience, freedom of thought, free speech. Just the fact that Trump won't bend to the dictates of the politically correct left

is a major victory in and of itself. Hillary was a terrible candidate, that's absolutely She didn't help the situation with the emails in terms of hand and her actions absolutely right, and she committed obstruction of justice if now Trump did, I think, and much worse fashion. But you know, I mean smashing up your ear phones and your hard story about it. But it was a bad out. Yeah, okay, I'm not trying to do something Bill Marl love Fest today.

But he's right again, this gets lost and all the discussions, all this gets lost, that it's not an accident, and then all the discussions about twenty sixteen and Russia collusion and obstruction and all this stuff. Hillary was a terrible candidate. Hillary brazenly I mean just the mendacity that she displayed with the lies that she told. I mean the way that she was willing to just look the American people in the eye and say, you know, oh, there's nothing

to this email. There was nothing classified, there's nothing. She lied and lied and lied, and the media were just covering for her at every turn. The same media that no was why aren't you more upset about Trump when he lies? Well, what is Trump lying about exactly is that he's the greatest and the smartest and the best. We can make our own decisions about that. We don't consider that to be a lie. What's he lying about?

That he makes the best deals? You know? They always talk about all of Trump's lies, and then I say what's the lie exactly? And then they say something that's usually an opinion, or usually them taking an exaggeration or a bit of salesmanship from Trump word for word literally, which they would never do with any other candidate, but they loved to do it with Trump. Hillary lies about

big stuff. Hillary lies about things that matter, and she also clearly obstructed justice, And that tells you everything you need to know about the people involved in the email investigation of Hillary, who, by the way, were the same people at DJ involved in the Trump Russia collusion farce. Why was she destroying devices? Why was she deleting emails after they were under subpoena. She was destroying evidence. That's

what that is. If Hillary Clinton were a run of the mill accounting firm and she had done the exact same stuff that she did in any kind of a federal financial fraud investigation, she'd be facing twenty years in prison. I'm not exaggerating the statutes that exist under I think it's Dodd Frank for destruction of evidence in a financial crimes casey of draconian penalties. Hillary didn't suffer any of that though. It wasn't even it wasn't even an issue.

She was never going to be charged. You want to talk about above the law. They just ignored Hillary breaking the law entirely. They didn't even put it really before a serious investigator. The whole point of the investigation was to make the thing go away. It was a sham. It was a scam. The whole investigation of Hillary's emails was never serious. It was a box checking exercise that was not going to lead to charges. And unlike Trump,

she wasn't the president. She was just a person, a person who was lying, and a person who was exposed for what she really was. She was a terrible candidate. She broke the law. She broke the law with the obstruction. She broke the law with I mean, that's classic, that's textbook obstruction. It's destruction of evidence. We'll be right back. I got some fake news to talk to you about now, Team. This one from the colorinary world. Beyond Meat launches Meteor

plant based burger. This is the vegetarian protein company that has a new version of its industry upsetting burger, which they are saying looks, taste and cooks more like beef in the original Beyond Burger quote. The new Meteor patty has marbling that melts and tenderizes just like beef and uses apple extract to deepen the brown color to better

resemble hamburger meat. According to the press release, the new formula uses coconut oil and cocoa butter for a juicier mouth feel, and a blend of pea, mung beam and rice proteins to give it a more fibrous texture. I hate to be the I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but there is no such thing as a vegetarian meat burger. It does not exist. A vegetarian burger cannot be meat, and it cannot in fact be meaty.

And as somebody who has had to dabble in the alternative food section a fair amount because of my siliac disease, I will say this every time. The one constant is that every time you eat something that they tell you is going to taste like meat, that's not meat. You know what it tastes like, not meat, Producer Mark, I need a ruling on this, Am I correct or not? Sir? Have you ever had tofu or sight tan or anything that was supposed to taste like meat and thought to yourself, yeah,

this is basically as good as meat. Not one time, never right. And yet you know that wherever you are anywhere in this great land of America, that when somebody throws a burger meat patty on a grill at a barbecue, it's going to be delicious. I mean, it's basically guaranteed to be fantastic. But when somebody pulls out of the freezer, some meat substitute. It's just it just doesn't get it done. Dude. I will tell you this. Actually I went to a I won't name it because they're very nice people who

run and it's a good place. But I went to a very highly regarded vegetarian restaurant in New York City, and I mean, this place gets rave reviews. And I've actually been to a couple of blub in New York. Long story sometimes, you know, back in my New York City dating days, you know, if if a young if a young lady's like I would really like to go to a vegetarian place, I'd say, oh, of course, girl, that I'm just asking out for the first time. I

love vegetarian restaurant, so you know, I'd go along. And then of course I would suffer the consequences of my false of my falsehood. You know, I would have to go and sit there and nibble on rabbit food and be like, hm, I just loved It's like little mushroom paste wrapped in this weird green sort of lettuce looking thing. You know. It's just I'll tell you that, the one constant I have whenever I've gone to a vegetarian restaurant is I leave and doesn't matter how much I eat,

I am still hungry. I'm still hungry now. I know there are ways that we see. I can't eat bread, right, so I can't eat the carbs that people eat to fill them up at some of these places. So, but when you're relying on protein from vegetables and eating things, what we ask a vegetarian, what are the foods that you can eat that mimic meat, that are supposed to be the closest thing to meat. They'll say things like

a portobello mushroom. To that, I always want to say, a portobello mushroom is a nice accoutrement for whatever meat I'm eating, you know, cut up your portobellos and put them with my chart grilled steak. You know, I'm just not somebody that can get excited about mush si tan. Also, by the way, I don't I mean they should use that to plug holes in plumbing or something. I mean, si tan is not something anybody should get to say and tofu that's right I have. There are a few

things team that you know. I hate mosquitos because there's no need for them at all. The ecology and birds and blah. But no, no, no, there's all there's a who knows how many different species of insects we could lose mosquitos. All right, one day, when Buck is president, I'm gonna do a Biden here and just promise crazy things. When Buck is president, I'm going to eradicate all mosquitos. I'll make you this promise right now. I will eradicate

all the mosquitos. That's right. But you know the other thing that we could do without is tofu. Tofu is gross. There's no need for it, all right. Tofu creates estrogen production in men. So yeah, eat that. Tofu feel healthy. You're saving the planet. You're slowly growing man boobs. That's what tofu does. I'm not trying to be inflammatory, although there is some inflammation that will occur as a result of the growth of your man boobs from the tofu eating.

I'm just saying. You don't have to agree with me, but I'm right. The show ain't over yet. Keep it it real. It's time for roll call Facebook dot com slash Buck Sexton. That's how you do roll call. Also just with a lot of enthusiasm and lust for life. That's how you do roll Call. Remember that song back in the nineties, and I guess it's an iggy pop song. But it made a return because of trains Spotting, which is not a very good movie, but I saw it. I've seen a lot of bad movies. John first, up

here Shields Hie real news fan. Alright, here we go, come up the coast. Had a few laughs. Now we're seeing California. They're going to start giving benefits to illegals. Start. This has been going on for who knows how long. This simply is the next layer, or it will become that we must give them taxpayer benefits and then the right to vote. All of this, of course, was put

in motion the day they realized Hillary lost. Yeah, there's been a lot of stuff given to illegals for a long time, but we're always told and we are led to believe that that's not true. That's a myth that illegals there's no problem, blah blah, they don't get any stuff that they're not supposed to. Well, let's just not reality. So there, you haven't agree with you on that one. But now it's going to be out in the open.

It'll be official policy, it will be what we are told now has to happen that illegals deserve taxpayer funded healthcare. And to this, I ask, well, now, if you can stay in the country, just if you can get here. So if the new Democrat position on these matters is if you get here, you can stay, and if you can stay, you can get access to taxpayer funded healthcare, what is the benefit to being a citizen of this country? Now? I really mean that. Start to play that one out

in your heir. What's the upside if you can get state benefits and you don't have to go through the immigration process and you're never going to be prosecuted for failure to pay taxes because you're an illegal? What is it or failure to file taxes? What's the downside of being in illegal here versus what's the upside of being a citizen. There's some there's some questions worth asking, and I think that that's one of the things we do here on the show. We ask the questions that are

worth asking. Adam Right's buck on Friday, after the first break, he played a montage of Damn's talking about planned parenthood. In the mix was a contraceptive care comment. Do you think Producer Mike could pull him away from all the ladies long enough to get that full clip might be gold Shields High. I'll ask producer Mike. I don't know exactly what that clip is, but he's he pulls a lot of our montages together. So whenever you need a montage that comes from producer Mike, we'll ask him. I

don't know. You gotta find out, Eric, buck Love the show. Part of the massive appeal of your show, along with the laser precise analysis and succinct, succinct articulation, apparently it's not so succinct or articulate, is richness of content? Why so many lib nut job sound bites on Monday Show? Hilary Bernie betto book Er Quartet is trying to pull

my ears off Shields High. Well, Eric, we're in the midst of a Democrat primary and we've got to analyze what the other side thinks and says, and so that's why we put some of the libs, more of the libs in the mix than we normally would in terms of sound bites. So I'll try to keep that in mind though, and make sure that there's not too much of that stuff going on, because I agree it can sometimes be a little dispiriting when you feel like all you're here and is from Betto and burn in the

whole squad. But it was like, I just want my voice to be a part of the montage. And then Bernie's like, why can't you just play all the things that I'm saying? Why am I not number one? Why is Biden at the top of the chalks? This is crazy? You know, who else do we have there? I gotta think of some other who else can we do a good impersonation of? It's running right now? You know? For example, is it even is it even theoretically possible to do

a good hicken Looper impersonation? Does anybody know what hick and Looper sounds like? How many of you even know what he looks don't google him? How many of you even know what he looks like off the top of your head? And then there's Bennett. There's a bunch of other candidates. Do you do you think you could if someone did a perfect in fact, forget about an impersonation.

I bet they are about half a dozen Democrat candidates at least that if I put them on this radio show, they're they're audio byte on the show of them talking. Not only would many of you not be able to and I'm not hooking fun now, that would you not know who it was. I wouldn't know who it was. Like if the producers played the game of name that Democrat, I wouldn't be able to do it with a lot of them. I wouldn't be able to tell you who's

I mean Swallwell, we could pick out swallowll. You can cut an impression of it's like, well, Hi, I just I just sit here and try to tell the men of America, No, it's not doesn't sound like swallow at all. I know what he sounds like though. He just sounds like he just sounds like a beta male nerd. But it's not enough. There's not enough grist for the impression mill with him. All Right, I got a little bit off track there that that can happen to me, James

writes Buck. They're making kids weak by taking away accomplishments and also taking away valedictorian status on schools because the Libs cannot handle losing, like how they cannot handle President Trump. And the only way what's his face that the Democratic Party will win is to impeach President Trump because they are weak Trump. All they want to do is cheat. You don't learn anything from cheating from WGY. Cobbles Skill, cobble skill. Rather, pardon me, New York Shields High. Let's

play some dodgeball. Well, thank you James for listening on WGY in the upstate New York. I always appreciate having fellow New Yorkers listening into the show. Mike Right, Hey, Buck love the show. Daily podcast listener here, just had a thought. If the left wants us to pay for abortions, shouldn't we make the case for subsidized gun purchases or flat out buy guns for those who can't afford it

or who want it or need it. Using their logic, it seems to me the people's right to protect themselves and their families overrides their moral objection to guns, especially especially in light of the fact it's actually an amendment and not judicial fiat. I'm pretty sure there have been more debts caused by abortion than guns in civilian hands in the US. Wouldn't really want this to happen, but it could be fun. Patrol lives with Shields High. Yeah, Mark.

People do point this out that if if you have a constitutional right to not just an abortion, but a constitutional right to someone else paying for your abortion. Then why doesn't that constitutional interpretation extend to other things, like, for example, the right to keep and bear arms. Can I just demand from a state that I want a brand new let me think I want who This could be fun? I mean, just for starters, A nice Glock

nineteen would be kind of fun. I could maybe do a sig so hour, you know, would be would be cool. Maybe a six hour two two six. There's a lot of different options that I would I'd be willing maybe a Heckler and Coke VP nine that would be kind of a fun one, or or an HK forty five. I know, there's a whole bunch, and the state can just pay for it and send it to me because I have a right to bear arms, So that means I have a right to have taxpayers send me the

arms that I have a right to bear. Liberals have no real response to this, by the way, other than to just get very angry at you and say that you're a troglodyte and you hate women. And whenever they say this, whenever it lives, accusing you of hating women. I just always want to tell them I'm rather fond of women. Actually, I think women are great. I don't know where you would get this idea, because it's so crazy that I don't even know how you could think

it for a second. But here we are. Let us see, shall we There's more. I have to go into the unread box under the same ones. Steve. Oh, Steve, this is very long, so I cannot read it on AIRB Thank you very The anti American left is a cult, Steve writes me. Okay, well that may be true, but I don't have time to get into the whole thing. If you guys want to make it on the roll call, you got to keep it about two hundred and fifty words or last more like two hundred words, or lasses

and the sweet spots probably about one hundred and fifty words. Brendan, Right, there's a CEO and contempt of court and Charlotte, North Carolina for not taking down the US flag if interested putting that out there. Being a vet and a deputy, this infuriates me. I don't know, Brendan about this story, but I will try to pull some stuff on it

so I know what you are talking about. Thank you for bringing it to my attention, Randy rites, what could you possibly have against the horse I wrote in on regarding the curmudgeon that hates Barbados the other day he also called me edit piss what Randy? I don't know. I don't know what you're drinking, my friend, but I

could use a swig right about now. Alan, The Mexican delegation meeting with pants while millions of illegals flows in reminds me of the Japanese delegation meeting with Secretary of State Cordell Hall right up until thirty minutes before the attack on Pearl Harbor began. We better call bs. Yeah, Look, Mexico doesn't view its interest as aligned with US when it comes to preventing illegal immigration. Illegal immigration is our problem,

and they don't want to make it their problem. And they also think that in many ways they benefit from it. So they're not a particularly good partner on this one. Now, let's see what else we have here. Jason is asking me, did you ever finish Dune? It's one of the best sci fi books I have ever read. Jason. I got a couple of hundred pages left, but you're reminding me that I do need to finish it, so I will

get to that, hopefully this weekend. Fiona. Fiona, you mentioned the other day that you've never read any Stephen King.
