Vaccine Approved And On The Move

a great guy. No welcome, friends to the Buck Saxon Show. We have good news today. I know it's tough to allow yourself even to believe it at this point. We've been through so much bad news recently, the countries in the grip of this pandemic. We have more cases, more debts in a day, in a month than we've ever had before. And we also have an election result that continues to be outrageous and frustrating and rage inducing a result so far at least, and I know the Electoral

College is meeting today. So there's a lot that we have to just grit our teeth for. But there is this vaccine that is out there, and it is on the move, and we should all be very very pleased about this, excited about this. It will be the beginning of the end of at least this wave of tyranny.

I don't want to overstate this. There are a lot of people who see what has happened to this country, who see how easily cowed the US population is, and they think that this can be replicated, that this can be copied for other issues, other policy areas and concerns. They're not going to give up. In fact, they view this as the playbook going forward on a whole host of issues. But let's just at least look at the

vaccine right now. I still remember in February being on the Bill Marshaw on HBO and being sneered at his stat laughed at because they said, Trump is saying that the vaccine is going to be delivered in record speed. And I said, well, they are planning to deliver it in record speed. That is the planet. Oh, you're so ridiculous. Trump will never do it. Well it wasn't just then

and there. We've seen countless other examples of people, especially when you get back into April, May and June time period, or they were laughing at Trump for suggesting that operation Warp Speed. They thought the name was ridiculous. He'd never be able to pull this off. He's not good enough, he's not smart enough, and gosh darnat people don't like him. That's what they were saying. I mean, that was the whole, the whole laugh line. They had fact checkers, even they

had fact checkers who jumped in on this one. To NBC News fact check from May fifteenth, coronavirus vaccine could come this year, Trump says. Experts say he needs a quote miracle to be right. Well, it looks like Trump delivered a miracle because vaccines are going into people's arms in this country today. Less than one year research to vile,

research to vaccination. They're actually doing it. They're getting it done, and there's a lot of credit the administration should get for this, but there's not really a focus on it. Of course, they don't really care to have anybody really come forward from the administration and say, hey, all of our critics were wrong. That's not good. The media is not going to spend any time on that. By their

own admission, this is a miracle. That's what they told us by their own admission, this is a miracle, and so then we have to ask what does it mean going forward? What is the reality of this? Now there's a tremendously complicated system here to get this vaccine out. I read I read about it over the weekend, and it's pretty incredible. I mean, this was written in the Wall Street Journal. The journey starts in a factory just outside Saint Louis, where Fiser scientists make the raw materials

though the backbone of vaccine. Those materials move on to and over Massachusetts, where researchers turn them into mr n, a molecular couriers that deliver genetic instructions to the body. The mr NA is dispatched to Michigan, where machines the size of single car garages envelop them with lipid nanoparticles, microscopic vessels used to deliver genetic material into the body. Making doses takes about a week, and batches sit for

about two weeks before being shipped. The vaccine is transported in glass vials strong enough to withstand transit and these subarctic temperatures in which the liquid must be stored. Trays carrying one hundred ninety five vials are packed with dry ice and suitcases or suitcase like boxes weighing eighty pounds. Those vaccines eventually are diluted with enough saline solution to

make nine hundred and seventy five doses. So this is a complicated process, and this is the most ambitious vaccination effort the world has ever seen. This is remarkable. It is a tremendous scientific achievement. And I think that it's a shame that we have such a focus on other things right now, and there's so much partisanship that there isn't any willingness in the media to credit and administration, even if they believe it is now the outgoing administration.

Even though the Electoral College is meeting today and it has certified will certify Joe Biden in these states as the winner. The fact is that the Trump team did pull off something of a miracle, and it had nothing but doubters and challengers and haters all along the way. That's what was really going on here in the media. I'm talking about now, I mean, all the fact checks all they'll never get this done. They're lying about this. So this is a victory that we should all celebrate.

But I know it's hard to be in any kind of a celebratory mood because of what's going on in the country. And this is going to take This is going to take time. In a sense, this is like the invasion at Normanity. This is the D Day landing of our fight against this vaccine. Remember after D Day, there was still a lot of fighting left to do, and there's a lot of people that lost their lives. That's where we are right now. We've got our feet on the shore at Omaha Beach. We got our feet

ready to go here. But this is going to take ninety days before we really feel a massive effect from this. Maybe sixty days, but something along, something along those lines. And I think everybody should be prepared for a very challenging December and January. We all know that. But along with this vaccination process, which I just I know it's about so much here and it's not really it shouldn't be a political issue. But the Trump team deserves an

enormous wave of thanks. You know, the people that hate science so much, right, that's what they always say. Trump and his advisors they don't believe the science. Well somehow they have helped bring it to being a scientific miracle through operation warp speed of getting this vaccine out to people.

But while we're distributing this and trying to get our lives back, trying to get our society back, we should understand that there are those who believe that these lockdowns and these restrictions on us should continue long after the

vaccine reaches a critical massive distribution. Now this is our new normal going forward, that it's completely necessary, not even acceptable, it is necessary to have all of these lockdowns despite all the data you could point to to show that lockdowns are certainly insufficient on their own, and many would even challenge whether they are beneficial when you look at

the costs versus the actual benefits of it. Bill Gates, who, I don't know why we have to listen to this guy outside of how to build a microprocessor, I really don't, but we do because because he's really Really rich people and really famous people are treated like they know things in this country. They're treated like their experts and whatever they feel like talking about, which is a shame because

they're not. But Bill Gates, who is worth I don't know, over one hundred billion dollars, some absolutely astronomical and crazy number he wants everyone to know that their bars, their restaurants should be closed down play too well. Certainly, mask wearing has essentially no downside. They're not expensive. Bars and restaurants in most of the country will be closed as we go into this way, and I think sadly that's appropriate,

depending on how severe it is. The decision about schools is much more complicated because they're you know, the benefits are pretty high. The amount of transmission is not the same as in restaurants are so you know, trade offs will have to be made. But this the next four to six months, really call on us to do our best because we can see that this will end and you don't want, you know, somebody you love to be the last to die of coronavirus. Notice that he won't

tell you what the data really says about schools. Schools are complicated. That's the only concession that Bill Gates will make. Your school closers are They're not complicated. School closers are dumb. They're not supported by the science. It's absolutely not worth it to close down schools, and everybody who was advocating for that at any point during this pandemic was wrong. They were wrong. There's not a debate on this. They were wrong. We have the data, We've run the experiment,

we have the numbers. Why won't he say that? Why is this guy so obsessed with controlling so many people? And also his comment about masks, I completely reject. Masks are limiting your ability to breathe freely, whether you want them or not. I'll put that aside for a second. Let's not pretend that it's no big deal. It's very annoying. It's a restriction of your most basic freedom, the right to breathe free fresh air, more basic than anything even

written the Constitution. Are you allowed to breathe? Kind of you breathe the way we say you breathe uncomfortably through what we tell you have to breathe through. This is moronic. Oh, there's no cost associated with this whatsoever. I mean, this is a totalitarianism that goes beyond even the kind of stuff you see in North Korea. You you're not allowed

to breathe the way you want to breathe. Why is that? Oh, because it's so effective at preventing That's why we have all these mask mandates all across the country, and cities and states and what exactly is it done to flatten the curve? I ask you that, what has it done to flatten the curve? Nothing? They won't admit that. They won't say that. They just pretend that we can't. This is all the emperor's new clothes, friends, it's the Emperor's

new mask. You're not allowed to look at what's going on and say, well, maybe it works, maybe it doesn't. You know how well it works. Whatever we can get into all that doesn't. Does a government mandate mean anything? No, it does not. It does not help. Look at all the charts, look at all the graphs. I know, I'm like a treated like a lunatic on this by the mainstream, But they're wrong. I was right about schools. They were

wrong about schools. Do you think they admit that. Do you think it makes any of them think, well, maybe maybe we've exaggerated the intelligence of Saint Fauci here, and maybe we should rethink some of these policies. They will not do that. And I'm here to tell you that while the vaccine is good news and it is getting distributed to that certainly is cause for celebration, or at least it's encouraging, right, I mean, maybe we're not in

a celebratory move, but it is encouraging. The Bill Gates is the globalists, the long downers, the authoritarians, the left. They want this to continue for I've been saying until next fall, but pretty much for another year. They want another year of you complying doing whatever they say. They want another year of this play one. When do you think life will fully return to what we thought of as normal back in January? No masks, no social distancing,

no other protective measures necessary. Certainly by the summer will be way closer to normal than we are now. But even through early twenty twenty two, unless we help other countries get rid of this disease and we get high vaccination rates in our country, the risk of reintroduction will be there. And of course the global economy will be slowed down, which hurts America economically in a pretty dramatic way.

So we'll have starting in the summer, about nine months or a few things like big public gatherings will still be restricted. But you know, we can see now that somewhere between twelve to eighteen months and we have a chance, if we manage it well, to get back to normal. Why do we have to manage it well to get back to normal. I just want to know what he thinks. What the logic is there. We're going to get everyone vaccinated and then they're going to be at herd immunity.

That's what's going to happen, or manage it. Oh so if we don't manage it well, we never get back to normal. You'll notice they hold this out there. There is this thought they have. Maybe we keep this in the back pocket. Maybe we use this whenever we want to get people to bend the knee. Oh, COVID could come back. Oh it's in forward country. Sorry, lockdowns here,

your business shutdown here, do what we say. There is a mass psychological conditioning here that you are a surf, that you do what the state tells you to do, and it will continue until you tell them no, will not comply. And we have not reached enough of that mentality in this country yet. And it's a sad thing. It's a sad thing. I usually think we were a free people that valued our liberty. Only some of us are a lot of us just want to be safe and warm and fed, and nothing else matters to them.

You're in the freedom. This is the Buck Sex and Show podcast. If I wasn't president, according to almost everybody, even the enemy, if I wasn't president, you wouldn't have a vaccine for five years. Okay. I pushed the FDA and companies and everybody else involved, like nobody's ever been pushed before, and now you have it rolling out, and frankly, they could have done it last week. They could have even done it a week sooner, and they heard from me.

But this has been a great, a really medical mirror, and they call it a medical miracle, and it's going to have a tremendous impact ninety five percent effect. If we have Moderner coming out next week, very soon, we have Johnson and Johnson one shot vaccine coming out, all great company effective, a medical miracle. Are you seeing a lot of news coverage of all that encouraging stuff right now? No, you're not, are you. It's almost like they don't want

to talk about it. They'll talk about the vaccine, but they won't talk about the administration's role in helping the vaccine get out there. So you have this ICU nurse in New York who is among the very first to get the Fizer shot, right, that's what everyone. That's that's what they're talking about. I don't see anything about Operation Warp Speed. I don't see anything about the Trump administration's

unprecedented program to get this thing out there. And let me also say that the politics around who gets the vaccine and when are going to start to get very nasty here right now, there's a novelty to all this. Right now, there's a sense of, oh my gosh, look the vaccine. Give it three or four weeks, and some people are going to be walking around feeling just fine. Some people are gonna walking around with no problem because they know they're almost certain to be protected from a

possible exposure to COVID nineteen. And a lot of other people will be walking around saying when more likely actually stuck at home by themselves, saying when do I get this thing? And you can already hear there are a lot of people that are clamoring to put this out there along along social justice lines. They say that some groups are disperately affected by this, so they want them

to get it first by age. That certainly makes sense based on all of the data, But there are plenty of people who you'd look at you'd say, well, it's more about individual living condition or uncrowded area in urban area. It should not be about superficial characteristics that have nothing to do with your actual will risk of getting COVID

and having a severe case of it. The politics around that are going to get very, very tricky here in the weeks ahead, because there are people who are going to get COVID next in the next sixty days who don't make it, who would have made it if they've gotten a vaccine. And as that dawns on more and more people, you can imagine it's going to become even more intense. And let's just hope the supply chains and everything hold up and that there's no big problems with

the distribution of this vaccine. Thanks for listening to The Bus Sesson Show podcasts. Remember to subscribe on Apple podcasts, the iHeart Radio app, or wherever you get your podcasts. I just want to deal in fact, because there is so much speculation out there and there is zero evidence that Hunter Biden or Joe Biden in anything wrong here. We should note again you and I said this in the air many times, there is no evidence that Joe

Biden was involved in any wrong doing. Of course, I want to note that there is no evidence that Joe Biden or Hunter Biden has done anything wrong. I just want to reiterate, let's be clear for the viewers. There is no evidence Biden did anything wrong. Well, again, because it's important, there is no I repeat no, there is no evidence that either Biden did anything illegal. There has been no evidence, there was no evidence. There's no evidence. There is no evidence there, it's not an iota of

evidence anything wrong. There's really no evidence that Joe Biden did anything wrong. If nobody's every accused that, I mean, there's no evidence whatsoever that Joe Biden did anything wrong. Got that Joe Biden did nothing wrong. Hunter Biden did nothing wrong. Right, they're delusional and they're a bunch of liars. But what a what a symphony of frauds. Wasn't that amazing. Here's a story today on foxnews dot com. New emails appear to show Hunter Biden failed to report four hundred

thousand dollars in income from a shady Ukrainian firm. There's no I didn't he did anything wrong, no evidence he did it anything wrong. Hunter Biden is the most pure and decent man imaginable. Yeah, the guy that got the stripper pregnant, pretended he wasn't the dad afterwards, and he got kicked out of the Navy for doing coke or meth or whatever. It was. Great guy, great guy. Oh yeah, Hunter Biden, he's you can take Hunters word to the bank.

Really trust really trustworthy, fellow. The media is disgusting. The media is a disgrace. You know it. I know it, and I think it's important that we all understand that they're not going to change. In fact, they're just going to become more aggressive under a Biden presidency. They're going to stifle this sent They're not going to try to win the argument anymore. They're going to prevent you from being able to make an argument. They're gonna try to shut down people like me who will beat them in

the argument. They won't allow it. That's going to be the game. It's it's not oh, may the best, may the best pundit or news channel or show or whatever win. It's going to be no, No, we're on air. You're not because the people that control the plugs and the switches and the you know, the internet and the cable channels, they're not letting you on that's the game they plan on playing, full on censorship. They talked about state media

against Trump. They're a bunch of morons. There's no state media when ninety five percent of the media opposes the sitting president. But notice that they in a sense, and I know this is not comforting to hear, but they were successful in their lives. They were successful in what they were trying to achieve here, preventing us from figuring out what really happened, at least in time for the election. That's what mattered. It was all about when this would break.

It was all about who and who would find out about this? At what point would they find out about this? Right? And Hunter Biden was able to count on the media to give him the kind of the kind of unbelievable, unbelievable protection from the mainstream media that you could only expect if you're a Democrat. That's really important to their movement.

I mean, if you didn't report four hundred thousand dollars an income, I mean, that's that's the kind of thing that even the irs under a Democrat administration would normally pay attention to. But does anyone really believe does anyone really think that Hunter Biden would face any will face any consequences under a Biden administration for this whatsoever. No,

of course not. The people who have been lecturing you for four years about norms and decency and democracy, about the rule of law are the same people who lied about Russia collusion from the beginning of the Trump presidency, used it as a weapon against Trump and all of his advisors and family members and everyone around him, and now are going to completely lock down with nothing but partisan intent, locked down anything the dj is looking at

about Hunter Biden or anything else for that matter, that harms Democrat interests. That's their plan, That's what they're going to do. I mean, the suppression of the Hunter Biden media story is something that well, we should never forget. In the same way that the attacks on Brett Kavanaugh. The attacks on Brett Kavanaugh were a moment of clarity about who the Democrats really are that they would lie

about somebody. There was such a lack of decency and honor and integrity at the very top of the Democrat Party that they would say the things they said and present the things they did against Brett Kavanaugh, a good man who had done nothing wrong. Not only was he not a bad guy. He was a good guy, and they tried to ruin him. They tried to ruin him. No remorse about a Kamala was one of them. Don't

ever forget that. I mean, she's ruthless, utterly ruthless, a Disgrace's a mediocrity who's playing the system, using identity politics, using the Democrat power structure. I don't mean the Democrat as in our democracy or whatever. I mean the Democrat Party. Kamal is very ruthless. Indeed, but what we saw with Kavanaugh, now you should view what's gone on here with the media as a Kavanaugh like moment. They will, in the weeks before a presidential election straight up lie to your

faces without a moment's hesitation. They will lie right to your face about an issue of major national news concern. And afterwards, when they're exposed as frauds and liars for that, they think of themselves as heroes because their purpose is not to inform you. Their purpose is to influence you for the benefit of a political party, the Democrat Party. That is what they are doing. Now it's not enough

to just point this out. We have to be very clear that there are there are fights ahead, and I have, you know, substantial concerns about where all this stuff is going. All right, here is here is Stacy Abrams. This Georgia election is weeks away. And remember the last two weeks of December. For a lot of people, including journos, the last two weeks of December, there's not going to be a whole lot of focus on anything in the news cycle. No one's really going to pay much attention. And then

all of a sudden, you're going to come back. A lot of people come back from vacation. There's going to be a Georgia Senate runoff for two seats. Right, Georgia is having this runoff, two seats at play, and you got Warnock, Leffler, Perdue Assoff. Which names are going to come out victorious of this thing? Stacy Abrams, the make believe governor of Georgia. It is out there rallying her side and she's speaking with a lot of confidence about

this place. Sixteen Democrats are prepared to win this election because this is the first runoff where we have the level of investment and engagement that it takes to win a runoff. We know from the numbers that we're in a good place. One point two million absentee ballots have been requested thus far, and just to put that into context, one point three million or requested for all of the

general election. And of that one point two million, eighty five thousand of those applications are from voters who did not vote in the general election, and they are disproportionately between the ages of eighteen and twenty nine, and disproportionately people of color. With that signals is that there's an enthusiasm for John Ossoff and Raphael Warnock, and its signals that we understand that we make need to make a

plan to vote and deliver this election. Look, millions of you are understandably furious about where we are right now in the presidential election. I understand that it all feels wrong. Electoral College is meeting today to certify a result that you think, in your soul, you know is just unfair. It's wrong. The Democrats changed the election rules in bad faith. There are hundreds of sworn affidavits alleging fraud. And there's this seething rage that we should all have that the

media openly and aggressively stifled information about Hunter Biden. So Joe could win. Yes, the media rigged the game, but the game is not over. And I don't just mean in the presidential election. We've got to win in Georgia. I've actually got a piece up on bucksexton dot com

on this that you should all check out. I wrote an editorial on it because I'm trying to make the case to you that it is not true that we are losing focus on the presidential fight and exposing fraud if we also give all due attention to winning these Georgia Senate seats. It has to happen, because what goes on if we lose this. If we lose and they have a Democrat majority in the Senate, well, first they'll eliminate the Filibus or then they'll move for expanded amnesty

for illegal aliens. You know, they already have a surge at the border going on right now. Why do you think that is people who are focused on this issue, who want to get into the country and stay here illegally. They know you're probably never going to have a better time. There's never going to be a better option for you to come into the country illegally, and right before a Bide administration, that's going to be pushing for amnesty, because even if you're not covered by that amnesty, do you

think there'll be any real will to do deportations. No, if you can get here, you'll be able to stay here. So they move for eventually be legalization for everyone the US illegally, they'll add to that statehood for DC in Puerto Rico. Some Supreme Court packing could also happen. All it feels like they don't need it these days. Look at the Texas decision. Texas brought suit, many states joined with Texas shot down by the Supreme Court. Trump is

out there tweeting about how no judge has the courage. Right, that's what he's saying, No judge has the courage. What did I tell you all along? And I don't like saying things that I know are going to be frustrated to hear, but I have to tell you the truth. I have to tell you what I know is coming judges all along, I had said, who's going to be the judge who wants to be attacked by the Democrats and the left for even giving an opening for this

to be overturned because of all the fraud. I just don't think they have the courage That's not me saying I don't care that they don't have the courage. That's me saying, this is the reality that we face. And that's what Trump is saying about these judges, include supposedly conservative justices. They're saying, nah, we can't, we can't touch

this thing. Sorry, can't get involved. So we absolutely absolutely need to focus in on this Georgia election and do everything that we possibly can to make sure that the Senate is in Republican control going into a Biden administration, because right now it would it would take something of a legal miracle to prevent the Biden administration from happening. We all, we all need to know that. That's that's where this is heading. Not saying it's over, but I'm

saying it's not looking good. We're down two touchdowns and there's you know, a minute thirty left. That's where that's where the situation is. And I'm gonna say this to you. And even who tells you otherwise right now is not being straight with you. They're not being honest with you. You know, there's a lot of telling people what they want to hear right now, and I don't want to

be a part of that. And have our I taken off the ball in Georgia because some people are squabbling for whatever remnants of the Trump movement they can sort of gather up for themselves in their eyes. I think that's the play. There are people now who are doubling and tripling down and how oh, don't worry. You know the plan and we're gonna win. And there was a there was a chance, there was a time we were having that fight. And yes, we see it through to

the end. But anyone is telling you that it's looking good right now is lying to you. They're lying to you right and putting too many people on air who are going to tell you that on their air, on their show. There's also a dishonesty in that, right. Yeah, I could bring endless amounts of people. Look, I think Sean Parnell's legal challenge in Pennsylvania it is legitimate. I think he's right, and I think he's got a shot.

That's why I put Sean on the air. But if you're asking me how I think this is going to go for the election overall, meaning whether or not this thing is pretty much over and done with. We're close, and people get get mad at me that's fine. I don't know why they're mad at me. I was saying fight all along. I was saying, this is where we need to be, dig in, do everything we can. But at some point, you know, sometimes you fight and do you give it everything again and you still don't end

up getting the result. That would be justice. That's life. That's where we are. So I just rather you hear that at this point from me than have me pretend like everything's fine, which I would not do. And then in January, when Biden's a week out from being sworn in, say yeah, you know, I guess, I guess maybe it is going to happen. You know, we should prepare now for that possibility. Doesn't mean that we give up, but it means we are being smart and strategic, and part

of that means winning in Georgia. All right. The response to losing Paris to the Germans, if you're the Allies, is not to say, let's hand them London. And that's what giving them Georgia would be right now, a disaster. So we continue the fight and we understand where we are in this process. You're in the freedom mind. This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast, y'all, got a twelve check, Wall Street got four trillion in access to liquid funds, and and that to me, just structurally, Will I'm concerned.

What keeps me up at night is that it was short term relief that was really important and really necessary, but that the help for working people and everyday people, as we know, drives up super fast. But what we gave away, what we gave away to Wall Street was so large and so structural that frankly like, that's why Republicans I think have not been have been, you know, not as and why Mitch McConnell has not been in

a rush. Mitch McConnell has been in a rush. This is complete rewriting of history from AOC who is an idiot, but a dangerous and powerful little propagandist for the ignorant left. No, Mitch is the one who has been pushing for COVID relief. Pelosi blocked it. They can try to rewrite the history as much as they want. It won't change what actually happened here. Pelosi blocked it. Said no, we want more. He brings up Wall Street. This is something we have got to change. We have got to We've got to

get the public to understand this. Wall Street is dominated by Democrats, by Lib Democrats. The Wall Street banks, Goldman Sachs is practically a d NC pack in terms of the way that it spends money in elections. It through of all these big investment banks, because this is the game. The Amazons, the Goldman Sachs, the mega corporations, the global is, the internationalists. They are rich and getting richer, and government

policy from big government action continues to benefit them. They like the anti competitive nature of all the endless regulation and the ability of government to come in and shut down their competitors. Look what's going on during COVID. Small business is just getting wiped out. But Wall Street is This is a myth. This is a fable that Wall Street is Republican. Wall Street is absolutely not. I live in New York City. I come from a family with

a dad who worked on Wall Street for decades. I got brothers, I got friends that are Wall Street people worked in Wall Street. Wall Street is Democrats. Okay, not all, but it is a huge majority of the giving went to Joe Biden. So this is I just hate this because somehow the perception lingers and AOC will sit there when she's when she's trashing Wall Street. This is a way to avoid criticism of Democrat policy and people. Yeah, Wall Streets so bad. Oh, those rich fat cats, those

are Democrats. Those are people on Wall Streets are writing checks to Diane Feinstein and Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi and and you know the AOC types, even of a little less so they like more of the establishment Democrats, to be fair, but they're the ones writing chest to Democrats. I just I this drives me nuts because there's this is all media perceptions, all media propaganda. Wall Streets a bunch of rich, white male Republicans. That's what Wall Street

is Wall Street. You go to any of these big banks now, they've got all the Diversity Days stuff going on, they're all about transgender rights, they've got super progressive HR policies, and they're giving their funneling money, funneling money to Democrats. Just check this is this is public record stuff. You don't even have to dig my word very good. Check online. You'll see who does Goldman Sachs give money to Democrats? People like Joe Biden, Hillary Clinton? Who these these enormous banks.

And in some ways it's ideological because you have these guilty conscience, rich libs who work on Wall Street and they think, oh, you know, I'm I'm getting paid all this money. What am I even really doing that's a productive, additive function for society? Or am I just in the extraction business? Extract from the system, position and extract, you know. So a way that they like to handle with that, A way they like to handle that is to give

money to very progressive causes and very progressive candidates. It's it's like buying a form of social insurance. That's really what they're doing, buying a form of social insurance. You know. Now they can say, oh, well, I gave to Joe Biden, so hopefully no one is gonna, you know, mask up and don't worry about the fact that I'm in my ten million dollar house in the Hampton's because I gave money to Joe Biden. This is what they do. This is this is how they get away with this stuff.

But they support the right candidate. They're just part of the system. They're just part of using and leveraging where they are in a system and pretending they care so much about the poor. These these Wall Street democrats, these fat cat hedge fund billionaires, they don't give a crap about the poor. I mean, yeah, they'll write a check a few times of years. They can go to a fancy gallow or something. There's a lot of that that goes on in New York City too, not not really

so much anymore, but there was before COVID. But it's it's remarkable. This, this is a lie that will not die. Wall Street is dominated by Democrats. It is the ideology now of Wall Street. You know, it's all these big mega corporations or what is what's you know, pushing the stock market to all time highs. There's a tremendous amount of government policy and monetary policy that goes into how

well all this stuff works or doesn't work. And they want to be at the levels of power so any and just this really it really bothers me because it's so easy. If an AOC will do this, you'll talk about this, and so many other Democrats will too. They act like the Democrats are the party of working people. Know,

the Democrats are the party of people on welfare. That is true, Democrats always want to increase welfare benefits, but people who work for a living are increasingly represented by the Trump era Republican Party and everyone seeing it and

that the numbers are bearing this out. You know, it's people that either benefited from the system and got a you know, a fancy four year degree somewhere and have gotten themselves into a into a place in our economy where they can work from home and they're all comfortable and fine. Yeah, they're Democrats and they want to you know, push more of a pittance, you know, they want to give a little bit more charity to people who aren't working,

to people who need assistance. But stunning, what we see happening here really is the lie about this will not stop. Thanks for listening to The Bus Sesson Show podcasts. Remember to subscribe on Apple podcasts, the iHeart Radio app, or wherever you get your podcasts. Well, first of all, Chris, the plan is alive and well, and there's no way, no way that we're gonna leave Washington without taking care

of the emergency needs of our people. And that's all over our country and my stay to West Virginia too. They're all hurting everywhere. So they're telling us that they're going to get COVID relief out there. I don't know if that's going to happen, which is just a total failure on the part of our elected officials, Nancy Pelosi, the Democrats to the one who've been blocking it for months. But I mean, come on, now, you know we've got a inauguration day coming up here, You've got a new

administration likely to be in charge very soon. Can we please please do what is necessary to help the American people right now during this pandemic and we just get something here out to people who have had their businesses shut down, who have been told that they have no choice in the matter, and now they can't pay their bills, and now they're perhaps either living on credit or they've they've run out of whatever the savings they've had, They've had to lay off employees. And this is because of

government mandates. It's not because of the market. It's not because of a downturner. And this is the government saying, and I think unnecessarily, saying, your restaurant, your bar, cannot be open anymore. You know, isn't it remarkable we have all these restrictions that are put in place at different times, but then when cases go up, it's like we are the game all of a sudden is Okay, cases have gone up and all the stuff that we were doing was apparently not enough. Well, then how well could it

possibly have been working. I never get an answer from anybody on this one. But if if we're masking and social distancing and limiting the number of people in these establishments, we're doing all those things, then case number in general, not even from that place or from that industry, goes up. They say, sorry, we gotta lock it down anyway. So is that an admission that all those other things don't

really work? What does work mean? If it's a five percent reduction and transmission for all that crap, is it still worth it or is it more like a fifty percent reduction? They have no idea. We're making decisions all

the time that they say are based on data. I mean, I can tell you this, if I had the opportunity to question doctor Fauci, If I got to sit in a senator's chair for a second, or sit as a member of Congress, and they just give me as their proxy let me question doctor Fauci, the whole thing would fall apart. You realize what a what a preposterous and absurd situation we're all in now At these people who keep saying that it's the data, and then you ask

them you find out there's no data behind this. They have no idea. There's making up as they go along, a lot of it. I mean, yeah, there's a lot of cases and a lot of deaths right now, there's that data. But in terms of the transmission risk, in terms of the reduction you get from these different choices, absolutely not. I have no no idea. Now now we have to talk about a little bit more of this, the legal challenges to the election. I don't want to

avoid this. First of all. I I don't understand how anyone could see this as anything other than the system operating all within the guidelines, the rules, the constitutional, constitutional limitations and demands. Here, everything is proceeding exactly on schedule. There's nothing the Trump team or anyone in favor of Trump has done that is a break in the rules.

There's no abuse in power here. They're saying that they have legal theories that go into a very complicated, very They go to a very complicated, very difficult year here in what's gone on with the law, and they're bringing these challenges and for some reason, Republicans like Chris Christie seem to be out there getting ahead of all this, as if we need to hear from them right now, as if they have to be a smug and dismissive about all of this. I mean, here he is play nine.

This is why I think the Republican Party will move on and move on briskly after the inauguration, because there's a lot of good things to move on from. You know, picked up fourteenth seats in the House appears, I think, totally lose one seat in the Senate ultimately and keep control. Flip to state legislatures, flip the only governorship that was flipped on election night. Except for the very top of the ticket. The Republican Party had a great night on

election night. Now a Sadia, I was disappointed that the president lost, and I understand the disappointment the party amongst some people for losing that election, but we need to

face the facts. Elections have consequences, and in the same way, Democrats were horribly disappointed by Donald Trump's victory four years ago over Hillary Clinton in what was actually a closer election than this one from a popular vote perspective, in the same margin from an electoral college perspective, Republicans now need to say thank you, mister president, for your service, thank you for the good things you did while you're in office that we agree with, and we now need

to move on. What does that mean? Why do we have to say those things? Chris Christie doesn't Chris Christie doesn't have some insight into the election process or these legal challenges that the rest of us don't. So far, they haven't worked. I mean, we can all observe the reality. We can all see what's happening. So far, Juliani's team has not been able to get any victories. That's that is true. That is I'm these are facts, you know, And we're not going to become CNN here on the right.

We're not going to live in a delusion and lie to people for ratings or for anything else. But there's also some time left here. There are these legal challenges that are continuing. Let's see what happens if they're all so silly, if they're also irrelevant or baseless. Fine, people bring lawsuits and they get shot down all the time. The courts, in a sense are are you know, a purification system for legal ideas. Now, they don't always get it right either, which we have to also keep in mind.

But so you bring it forward, you say this is our legal theory, and if it is incorrect or if it doesn't work, then you you go beyond that, you move beyond it. That's where we are. We will accept the results of this election if in fact, we get through every everything that we've got and the result is

the result. There's no there is no alternative that people that are people that are out there are saying that we're going to come up with some you know, Texas is going to become its own state or something else. They're just appealing to emotion, and I think at some levels it becomes disrespectful of conservatives, conservative audiences and the people that are on our side politically to tell them what you know is because there's a lot of that

going on right now. People are saying what they know isn't true, but they know that the audience wants to hear, and they hope that that that feeling will just translate later on when the when the people that are saying things right now that maybe aren't not going to Chris Christy length of making fun of the lassage andything that that that's absurd, But I really believe that I have an obligation to tell you that. You know, our challenge so far has not gone well. Our legal challenge just

have not gone well for this election. Do I think Do I know that there were irregularities and cheating this election? Absolutely? Do I know that this stinks to high heaven and it's it's just a disgrace and it feels like this whole thing was just wrong. Yes, But do I also know that there's no alternative system that we have in place to do something other than what we're doing right now, and that at the end of it we may actually lose. Yes. Yes, And I've known this for a while now, and I've

tried to stay back. You know, people who got mad at me because I say, ah, well, you know, I think I said on Sarah Carter's podcast a couple of weeks ago, we got about a five or five to ten percent chance of really turning this thing around and sending it to the States or having a different again legal process where that could occur. And I got a lot of heat for that. That was just honest, and

I was right. I mean, if you're doing the odds, if you look at this, you look at the number of legal cases, the number of states, the margin of victory. It's a long shot. And even the people involved in the legal challenge, I'll tell you, they'll they'll, they'll, they'll tell you it's a long shot behind closed doors. So

you know. Now, now it's a question of how we process this and how we get ready for the fight going forward as this makes its way, as this continues on to the final stages here, I mean, otherwise, someone tell me what they really think the alternative is going to be. There's not going to be a secession movement. It's not going to happen. There's not going to be a rejection of our entire process. We're not going to all move to you know, Polynesia. Okay, it's not going

to happen. So let's look at what is happening, and let's fight these cheaters and scoundrels and statists and authoritarians together with everything we've got. Let's win in Georgia. Don't need to be you know, snide about I mean, this is the CLI clip I actually meant to play. Here's Chris Christy just being kind of asked you about this whole thing. Plate ten, Well, listen, the legal theory put forward by his legal team and by the President is

an absurdity. And the reason why the Supreme Court didn't taken is because it's an absurd idea to think that any state or any number of states, no matter how good they are, can challenge in other state's right to run the election as they see fit. And also, there's no evidence, as I've been saying since election night, show us the evidence. And what's gotten even worse, though, Martha, I think, is the attacks by the President on good, hardworking,

decent Republican governors. Good hardworking, decent Republican governors. Look, there's no need to say that the legal theory is absurd. There's a need to track down everything we're doing here, look at everything that's going on, and come to a final determination about where we are and what we can do. At this stage, it's I'm I'm as as upset about this as anybody else. It's it's a kick in the face,

and we're again. I think that the Champarnell case, maybe maybe that is the legal miracle that sets all this right, or at least gets that going. Maybe we can finally prove in a way that a court will uphold that dominion voting systems are problematic or are too easy to be messed with. But in the meantime, let's all just band together. We know what we're fighting for, we know what our team's all about, and we will we will get through this. We will get through this, and we

will get to bigger victories in the future. It's going to happen. Keep the faith you're in the Freedom Hunt. This is the Buck Sex and Show podcast. Indoor dining in n y See shut down. It's likely to happen in other places across the country as well. I've got my friend Joe Barelli, who is a city councilman here in New York City and a rare Republican on the New York City Council, joining us to talk about how this is going. Joe, great to have you on. Always

good to be here. I was looking right now, my friend. I mean, I saw of the weekend these outdoor structures that they've built in New York City. I know they have them in other places too. Are the outdoor but kind of indoor structure is gonna still be able to operate, But normal interior restaurant dining is shutdown? Is that the

way this works, Yeah, which makes sense. So the outdoor, indoor, inside, outside, you can still do that, with the exception of the Northeastern that's going to blow in here over the next few days, so even that'll be out the window for these poor people who are struggling with small business restaurants

in New York City. But you are a history guy, and if we played a little trivia right now, I would ask you to look back in all your knowledge to find one example of a president or governor or mayor who said we're going to enact a policy which is financially harmful to his own or her own citizens, and then simultaneously tout statistics that prove that policy will be ineffective at any rate. And that's what we had on Friday with Governor Cuomo. He said, we're shutting down dining.

At the same time he told us the statistics show dining is not causing nearly any COVID around New York State or New York City. That's amazing to me because when we look at this now, the data seems to suggest that the transmission is mostly happening in homes. But are they not able to figure out well, if it's not really happening in restaurants and dining, and most of

the spread as aggregate numbers goes in the home. Where is the initials spread to the you know, the let's say head of household or whoever brings it into the home. Do you know what I mean? Yeah? I mean I think this contact tracing idea has been flawed from from the very beginning. I mean, this was the reason given that as why we couldn't open up restaurants and dining and gyms, etc. In the first place. And then when we finally get the data, we're not really learning all

that much. In fact, we're learning very little. Right. If there was some data to indicate that, you know, twenty five thirty forty percent of cases we're coming from restaurants, we could probably act on that. We could probably all agree that maybe we do have to take some measures and make some considerations. But we're just not the fact that we're just saying seventy something percent are coming from the home where people can do whatever they want, and then leaving it up to God to do the rest.

It's unfair how that translates into well, we might have to have another shutdown of restaurant dining gyms, etc. Where are we on gyms at NYC, because that is one If they shut down the gyms, I don't know, man, I'm gonna be out there protesting in the northeaster or in the streets, because to me, that just means everyone is more depressed, less healthy. And they've had almost no spread in Jim's too, which might be a shock to people. But it's funny you asked, I was about to flex

for you in my athletic wear today. So Jims were allowed to reopen on Monday. They were closed the week prior, and now the Mayor and governor, though announced that New York City might have to go to a complete lockdown

soon so that those would once again be closed. So if you're following along and you get the impression that I really couldn't even tell you whether jim will be open in another week or two, it's because even I, as an elected official in New York City, can not even fathom whether Jim's will be opened a week from today, but they're open today. Who are the people that are supposed to be the experts that are making these decisions,

or rather that are that are pushing these decisions? You know, the advisors at the local level, because I feel like they've gotten a lot wrong. Joe. No, it's it's the governor. It's the governor, and it's politics. It's it's not necessarily the health people. They're just the rubber stamps. Look, I mean, we have indoor dining clothes now in Manhattan. Manhattan has

a positivity rate of two point five percent. The statewide positivity rate is five percent, meaning that the rate in Manhattan is half that of everywhere else in the state, meaning it's double as good. To mince the numbers, and yet Manhattan will have closed indoor dining, but Chemung County in upstate New York will allow indoor dining where coronavirus is at least according to their data. Running more rampant, Joe,

what's gonna happen? We all got about a minute. But what's going to happen to small businesses in this city is is there going to be some bailout program for them? No? I mean the governor could tomorrow authorize a deferment, or an elimination of the state's quarterly income tax payments that businesses are required to remit. And that amounts to you know, just eight percent of what their register would be over the past three months. But that that that's a grant,

I mean treated as a grant. Give these people back their money them hold on to it and let them pay their employees, let them pay the rent, whatever they got to do, so that hopefully in quarters one, two, three, and four of twenty twenty one, they're still in business to keep paying the taxes. I'm worried that a lot of my favorite places and that are you know, a big reason why people live in New York City is

because of that. You know, the bar where you met your fiance, the restaurant where you celebrated your first promotion. You know, you choose. It's such a part of our culture and our life here. I think I think they're just going to be decimated. I think it's going to be a blood bath for these small businesses. And that's just it's it's really sad. But well, we'll keep the faith. Joe, hopefully we got better days ahead. Joe Barelli of the New York City Council. Joe, thanks for joining me and

I always good to talk to you YouTube. Thank you thanks for listening to The Bus Sesson Show podcasts. Remember to subscribe on Apple podcasts, the iHeartRadio app, or wherever you get your podcasts. There's a case to be name that this will actually strengthen Trump and his base. And here's why. At least for now, the president has had some constraints on him as president. He can't do things

that are totally off the charts. There are still people and lawyers around him who tell him, you can't do that, sir, you can't fire this guy. You shouldn't do that when

he leaves. And if he's right about creating his own media empire and a digital platform and declaring simultaneously that he's the candidate in twenty twenty four, what you now have is a totally unchecked actor all over the media with seventy million votes of people who will will follow him and you know, one hundred million or whatever he's got on Twitter following him. He becomes unchecked and his people in the eyes of his base, he becomes the hero,

the wrong hero who must be avenged. You know this, this outrage must be avenged. He's our guy. And so add to it the qan on folks who have been elected to Congress, right, and you can see a recipe where this doesn't go way, this lenacy becomes embedded in our society and our culture. There you have a Russia collusion truther who was a former senior FBI guy. I think he was the deputy assistant or something. I mean, he was some ord you know, deputy director. I don't know,

as some senior FBI title. Who knows he was a senior guy at the FBI, who's telling you that you need to be on guard, you need to be careful because there could be this whole narrative out there of a stolen election and that Trump, even if he's not president, will be dangerous. And you know, I think that they're

forgetting that we all went through. We all went through three years a four years rather of Russia collusion, lies and attacks and smears, And yeah, yeah, they're gonna have a really tough time dealing with a Donald Trump if he's not president. They're gonna have a difficult time fighting through the way that Trump and his movement will be able to be a problem for their narrative. But beyond that, I also note that we're all supposed to be so worried.

We were worried he wasn't going to accept the lass. Now you got this, this guy's moron figure you'd see. I mean, he goes in MSNBC. The guy's a complete jackass. It really, the FBI and the CIA brands are irrevocably or irrevocably sorry, but the FBI and CI brands are deeply damaged as a result of what's going on here, damaged beyond repair. I think, and I'm somebody who you know,

i'd like to think the CIA is well regarded. It's it's really not anymore because of these senior officials from these agencies who go out and act like partisan morons. But you know, there was violence this weekend. This guy's so worried about what's gonna happen. Violence this weekend, more Biden voters, Democrats, Antifa attacking Trump supporters in DC. It's not covered in the media. It doesn't even get a mention.

The lunacy of the left that's going on in Seattle right now and in Portland and and DC over the weekend, and they don't even think of it as a news story. I mean, they really are like the Soviet media. You know, they're Pravda circa nineteen fifty eight or something. I mean it's appalling what they're willing to lie about and cover up. You're in the Freedom Hunt. This is the Buck Sexton

Show podcast. How does China influence our politics? We heard so much about Russian influence the election in twenty sixteen. It was greatly exaggerated, as you know, by the media because they used it as a weapon against Trump. But now we're starting to wake up to the reality of pervasive, widespread, and incredibly powerful Chinese Communist Party influence operations, and they're following our politics closely and trying to direct political outcomes

in this country. I've got someone joining now who could speak very much to this issue. Stephen Yates is with us now. He is the principle of DC International Advisory and he's formerly Deputy National Security Advisor to Vice President Dick Cheney and the Bush administration. Steve great to have you. Thank you, Buckets one will to join you. And Steve is also a Mandarin speaker, so he's been handling this issue and looking at it for a very long time. Stephen,

how does China and walk us through this? I mean, give us a kind of overview brief of what we're seeing now and how China in recent years has tried to influence American politics. Well, Buck, I'll give a quick version of it. This is something that's been going on a long time. It's escalated, it's become more sophisticated, and it's been technologized, and all the weapons are at the hands of the Communist Party of China at this point.

But if people might remember, but it seems ancient history that there are influence operations that hit the public in the nineteen nineties, there are fundraising scandals that came up during the Clinton administration. Congress had a full, full scale national security report done under the leadership of Chris Cox that, among other things, gave warning things about this. But the Chinese used to use access to their markets as leverage to try to get more favorable policies from Americas. So

the old argument was China's developing country. We give them a break here and there and treat them like a developing country, sort of like a kid at the kid's table, but with the potential to come to the big tables. Let's give them a break and go ahead and give them special access, and they'll grow into their role of being a responsible partner of ours. Over time, they've gone from just giving money to campaigns, which got them in

trouble in the nineteen nineties. So then they found out, well, what if we work with churches and chambers of commerce, in other words, let's influence the influencers. And it got from corporate boardrooms to evangelical associations, a Catholic church itself, other kinds of civic organizations, whether it's sister cities. They just spanded this this this outreach effort, and they completely co opted a lot of our major universities. So universities

are businesses. I think that they should be treated more like businesses if education is only a small fraction of their revenue and business model. And what they've done is they make it so that foreign exchange students, research programs are completely dependent on the good graces of the Communist Party of China to have all of this money that they that they live on. So they become too big to fail in a way that you can't criticize China.

We can't question government policy towards China, or they'll pull the red carpet out from under our feed. So that that's been growing over decades. What's much much more pronounced now is their role in big tech, big entertainment, big sports, all other elements of the culture War. They seem to have snuck in and taken a monopoly control over just in recent years. Speaking at Steve Yates, he is the CEO of DC International Advisory and a former senior national

security official under the Bush administration. Steven tell us about you mentioned the big tech influence, and we're already seeing a lot of problems on the right from American big tech companies involved in censorship. How does China try to leverage big tech to direct American politics or get involved in our political conversations. Well, in some ways it's too

easy for them. If you want the greatest freedom free zone to test facial recognition, artificial intelligence, ways to monitor and control and influence people, China is the greatest sort of experimental farm you could go to to try to figure out how applied technology you can be used to manipulate and control people. So, if you're in the business of doing that in advertising, you might have a perverse

interest in trying to cooperate with China. But the Chinese have all kinds of tentacles back in they can do it by direct investment. They can do it by way of engineers that are exceedingly well trained but willing to work at a slightly lower rate. And even if we just look at recent controversies about who are the fact checkers in big tech today that are determining that a warning label needs to go onto the at real Donald Trump account, in many cases those are farmed out to

Chinese fact checker farms. And so this is they're tied in in so many different ways that people wouldn't even think about it. You're telling me, you're telling me that some of the some of the fact checking of American because I've been fact checking, I mean I've I've personally been subjected to this in the last few weeks, some of the fact check and accompanying censorship that's happening in America around American tech companies, preventing Americans from sharing ideas.

We're being fact checked by Chinese, by Chinese people in Chinese artificial intelligence. It's been outsourced. I mean, the scale of the operation to try to monitor the amount of traffic as we would say, say Twitter, that's bigger than most American companies can really reasonably do. And plus we're talking about international traffic. Think can bounce all over the place and still be about the American election or political process. And so the Chinese Communist Party and they're they're they're

invested outfits. They make themselves available to help out, you know, when needed on things like this. But very very very very plausibly, you or anyone else that has a sizable audience has been fact checked by someone who's not even an American. Oh my gosh, almost makes me think that it'd be better to have your LIB MS NBC watchers. At least at least they feel like there might be

some eventual accountability for what they're doing. But if you're talking about outsourcing the stuff to China, Yance, you could cross paths with them, Yeah, exactly. At least I could find out what the outfit is and maybe try to get some redress or Speaking of Steve Yates, he is the CEO of DC International Advisor. He's a China policy expert.

Steve tell everyone listening this about the role that the relationship and role that China has to the US agricultural industry and how they've tried to leverage that in recent years. And you have some particular knowledge of this as a guy who ran for lieutenant governor in Idaho. Yeah. Well, one of the more famous examples on the presidential level has been the influence they tried to exert in Iowa. And so there has been a former governor of Iowa

that was the President Trump's ambassador to China, Branstead. And so the Chinese would would offer up access to their

consumers for all of our wonderful farm products. And if they took kind of a controlling share of say korn in one state, or wheat in another, or hay in other places, they can have tremendous political impact by saying whoa, whoa, don't talk about going to Taiwan, or don't support your elected members on these tough on China policies, or I'm so sorry, we might not be able to buy the next billion dollars worth of your product for the coming season.

So sorry. So they've been able to exercise that influence for me personally in a state of Idaho, there's a lot of exports that go to China, but it's people who then associate with the Chinese or use the China angle that can attack you. And so since I have a name in Chinese and people have known me through

the media in Chinese language. A whole bunch of fake accounts can start sending criticisms, making fake videos, and they get picked up in the American press, and they don't know, you know, we don't have sufficient fact checkers in some part of rural America, and they don't know what's going on.

They say, I'm an agent of China, And anyone who's ever known me from the nineteen nineties until now, there probably isn't anyone who has a longer record of being a pain in the backside of the Communist Party than I have. But it just takes a few fake accounts and build a fake audience, and that Twitter farm goes, and the Facebook farm goes, and it looks like there's hundreds of people that don't like this mister Yates from Idaho because he's tough on China. Stephen, what should we

do about this? Do you think that there's a recognition of how important powerful and nefarious Chinese influence is Chinese Communist Party influences in the United States that there is enough willingness to do something. And if that is the case, and I'm emphasizing if what should be done well, I think the single most potent force we have in America right now is the Trump movement. It's something that can earn coverage, it can influence people who are active in

multiple states, and that's what it's going to take. It's going to take things in state legislatures in addition to Congress and the federal government. People have to forget that the federal government isn't going to be our savior. We're gonna have to save ourselves from the ground up. And they're gonna have to put pressure on universities. They're gonna have to put pressure on the patterns of trade that

our states engage in. And that's going to be much much more effective than trying to wait for a federal response. But recognizing that free trip that those college kids got to go to China, it's going to come with some strings. That that great welcome that you've got to promise to buy all these crops, this group of visitors that was going to prop up your resort or your hotel or something like that, that can be taken away as easily as as it's given, and it's going to come with

strings attached. I think Secretary of Pompeio has been in a store Secretary of State in this regard the most candid in terms of talking to the world but also talking to Americans about what the nature and scope of this challenge has been. And we're just at the very beginning of having that real conversation. And it seems like nothing, but in my thirty years of working on this topic, this is the first we've even made headway and having

that more honest conversation. It just needs to continue. Our allies are getting hit by the Chinese. Two the Brits, the Australians have had some ugly political attacks on them by the Chinese, and so more of the world is coming around to this isn't Donald Trump the person versus big bad China. This is China declaring war on civilization as we know it, freedom as we've known it. And sadly they've got enablers in our own polity and we've

got to get wise. And I think this election experience has awakened more Americans to roll this boulder forward in the right way. I hope. Before we let you go, the story that broke about all these Chinese Communist Party members based on this leaked list, it was named and particularly UK major international United Kingdom base. You know British companies, Steve, what did you make of that? I mean it was

I think of a company, you know, Rolls Royce. We think of these British companies that people all all know off the top of their head they've hired and in some cases put in pretty sensitive positions, not just Chinese workers, which the different thing members active members of the Chinese Communist Party. Yeah, so these the target of corporate leaders and influencers has been something that a lot of nefarious players around the world have gone to, and the Chinese

have made a big, big play for that. And the corporate boards and corporate leadership that allows these people in either are really really ignorant to let these people into the barn, or they're in on the joke, and what they're trying to do is to buy access to the ever elusive billion plus Chinese market by allowing these folks

into board rooms and influential positions. What happens most of the time, though, is technology and talent and other gets stolen away from them and a competitor rises up in China and they need to learn this sad lesson. But this has happened in many corporations, in many political organizations. The UK story could easily be replicated in a lot

of America. We know that members of the Senate and House Intelligence communities have been personally compromised by staffers being on their roles for many years, and an FBI briefing ends that tenure. But the damage is done. That's been done in corporations, have been done in Congress, It's been done in campaigns, and everyone needs to get wiser about how to vet this.

thanks so much, my pleasure to take care Buck. Thanks for listening to the Bus Sesson Show podcast. Remember to subscribe on Apple podcasts, the iHeart Radio app four, wherever you get your podcasts. Is there a doctor in the White House? Not if you need an m D. This was written by this guy, Joseph Epstein, and the subheading if this is an editor in the Wall Street Journal, Jill Biden should think about dropping the honorific, which feels fraudulent even comic. Let me just be very clear, it

is fraudulent and comic. It's absurd. Now one is a fraudulent I mean the notion that we should have to call this person who got a PhD at fifty five because she was apparently bored and you know, wanted to get more street cred or something. Got a PhD at fifty five in some kind of you know, educational field, and we're all supposed refer to as doctor. Now, well, let me be very clear. This is a custom thing, this is a cultural thing. There's no legal issue here, right,

Call whatever you want. So I don't really understand what they think the big deal is here, and I want to be very clear that when I look at this, I see that there are people making a big deal is now. I said back in August, doctor Jill Biden shouldn't be called doctor. This isn't a partisan statement. It's about reality. That was back in August. So they wrote this piece of the walls through journal a few months after. I was already coming out there saying this because I

think it's very obvious. The whole thing is absurd. But you see, they hate. You're not allowed to mock. You are not allowed to mock people in power when they're Democrats. You can't do that. You're not allowed to poke fun at them. They shut that down because it takes away from the power and the perception of power that they're trying to build for them. So you know, I mean,

Jill Biden is not a doctor. And here's what this guy, this guy writes, Madam first Lady missus Biden, Jill kiddo, now that people got mad about the kiddo thing, A bit of advice on what may seem like a small but I think is not an important matter. Any chance you might drop the doctor before your name, Doctor Jill Biden sounds and feels fraudulent, not to say, a touch comic.

Your degree is I believe an e an ed d. Or a Doctor of Education earned at the University of Delaware through a dissertation with the unpromising title student retention at the community college level, meeting students' needs. A wise man once said that no one should call himself doctor unless he has delivered a child. Think about a doctor, Jill, and forthwith drop the doc. I taught at Northwestern University for thirty years without a doctorate or any advanced degree.

I have only a BA in absentia from the University of Chicago in absentia because I took my final examination on a pool table at headquarters company ford Hood, Texas, while serving in the Peacetime Army in the late nineteen fifties. I do have an honorary doctorate, though I have yet to report to the president of the school that awarded it. I was fired the year after I received it. Not I hope for allowing my honorary doctorate. That's right. So friends,

this is pretty straightforward. And I remember some of you wrote any disagree with me on this, that's fine. I think it's weird, and if you if we can argue about this, there's certainly argument to be had on both sides. I think it's weird to insist, because she clearly does. Because there are tons of people out there without doctorates. I'm sorry, with doctorates who don't want to be called the doctor. There lots and lots and lots of them. I've always thought this was a little strange. I never

liked that. I had a We call them headmasters at my grammar school, my primary school, so that's that's what we had to call our principal, a headmaster, and we had to call him doctor, and he was he wasn't a doctor. You know we had some kind of a doctorate in the humanities or whatever. And I know that there's some there's some long standing tradition here of people that are getting a the PhD came before the MD or whatever. I don't care. We've we've evolved in our

conversation about this. A doctor is a person who is a doctor, right, and I think that that's in it's it's delivered as an honorific it's delivered as a term of respect. I do not have any respect for Jill Biden's PhD in community college retention. I give zero, you know what's about that? And so I'm not going to

walk around and be told that I have to. I have to say this a better You know this is if I insisted that Democrats call me Buck the radio genius Sexton, they would have a right to say, no, we're not actually going to do that. We're not actually going to refer to him as the radio genius and say, well, but why not, you know it, why not just be polite and call him what he likes to be called. They won't do that. So I I know I had a grandfather who had an honorary doctorate from Notre Dame

no One. We never called him doctor. He wasn't a doctor. So I think that this is this is just one of these things that shouldn't have been such a big deal. But the Libs and the machinery of Biden worship, that's all kicking into gear. It's amazing. Oh this is sexist. They say it's not sexist. Oh what they think that if we were supposed to call him doctor Joe Biden because of his PhD in education and in community college retention or whatever, that we wouldn't make fun of him

for that. That's absurd. I mean, their point is absurd. It's not it's not real. I would, of course make fun of Joe Biden for that. I'd make fun of anyone for that, and I think we have a right to do that. But you'll you'll notice there's a particular sensitivity around Biden and his wife and the First family and all this stuff because they don't want people to start to realize how how silly this whole thing is.

That Joe Biden is a third tier mediocrity in every sense, and they just figured that this is a guy we could make president. They didn't spend enough time thinking about should we make him president. They just figured out we can, we can fool enough people with the media and with social media allied together in a pandemic year, we could we could get this guy to be president. And they're all going to try to pretend like this is really impressive and he's some great guy. Joe Biden's a clown

and it's a little it is. It's pretentious that her wife, that his wife rather goes around demanding to be called doctor doctor Joe Biden. I'm sorry it is pretentious because clearly demands it, because we know about it, right, This isn't like it just is. It's not It's one thing in the classroom on campus. I'm talking about it in like general, in life, in general. You know, I think Dick Cheney's wife has a has a doctorate. No one

calls her doctor Cheney like missus Cheney. There's tons of examples. The Wall Street Journal do its credit, Uh fired back on this one because social media over the weekend. Oh my gosh, how how dare you not referred to as doctor Jill Biden. I just want to know it. Has anyone who ever wrote a dissertation for a PhD program at the University of Delaware. I'm just gonna ask this question.

Do you think I've ever not gotten it? Do you think the University of Delaware has every been like, yeah, you're you're in their PhD program and you finished a doctorate, but you know it just wasn't really good, so we're not going to give you your PhD. I'm just guessing. I don't know. I have to I wonder if the state is even available. I'm guessing the answer though, is that you know, you show up, you write the thing, you get the doctorate. So what exactly is impressive about this?

In what way am I supposed to care about? No, of course not. Do do you think that? Do you think that if the roles were reversed, if this was a Republican's wife, the Democrats would be leaping to her defense. No. In fact, there was no talk about the sexism of attacking Milanni all the time. There was no talk about the xenophobia of attacking her accent, making fun of her a woman who speaks five She's a highly successful international model who speaks five languages. But they would they love

making jokes about her, mocking her. Do you think they made you think they made jokes about this. Would they make jokes about this if it was a Republican. No, they would if it was a Republican, Not if it's a Democrat. So oh, there's a little bit more here. I want to read more from this guy's piece. The PhD may have once held prestige, but that has been diminished by the erosion of seriousness and the relaxation of standards in university education generally, at any rate, outside the sciences,

getting a doctorate was then an arduous proceeding. One had to pass examinations in two foreign languages, one of them Greek or Latin, defend one's thesis, and take an oral examination on general knowledge in one's field. At Columbia University of an earlier day, a secretary sat outside the room where these examinations were administered, a pitcher of water and a glass on her desk. The water and glass were

there for the candidates who fainted a far cry. This is from the few doctoral examinations I sat in on during my teaching days, where candidates and teachers addressed one another by first name, and the general atmosphere you're more resembled a coffee clatch. Doctor Jill I note you acquired your ed as recently as fifteen years ago or at age fifty five, long after the terror had departed. The

prestige of honorary doctorates has declined even further. Such degrees were once given exclusively to scholars, statements, statesmen, artists, and scientists. Then rich men entered the list, usually the hope they would donate money to the schools that had granted than their honorary degrees. My friends, my late friends. Saul Linowitz, then chairman of Xerox, told me he had sixty three honorary doctorates. Famoush television journalists who passed themselves off as intelligent,

followed entertainers who didn't bother feigning intelligence were next. At Northwestern, recent honorary degree recipients and commencement speakers have included Stephen

Colbert and Seth Myers. I sent a complaining email to the schools president about the low quality of such men, of men, sorry, of such men as academic honorand's, with the result that the following year the commencement speaker and honorand was Billy Jean King, who, with the graduating members of the schools women's tennis team, hit tennis balls out to the audience of graduating students and parents who had aid seventy thousand dollars a year for their university education,

or perhaps I should say for their credential. Political correctness has put paid to has put paid to any true honor and honorary doctorate may once have possessed. If you're ever looking for a similar assimile to denote rarity, try rarer than a contemporary university honorary degree list not containing an African American woman. Then there are all those honorary degrees bestowed on Bill Cosby, Charlie Rose, and others, owing to their proven or alleged sexual predations, have to have

had to be rescinded. Between the honorary degrees given to billionaires, the falsely intelligent entertainers, and the politically correct. Just about all honor has been drained from honorary doctorates, as your ed D or E ed d or, I don't know how you even say this educational doctorate, Madame first Lady, hard owned, though hard earned though it may have been, Please consider stowing it at least in public, at least

for now. Forget the small thrill of being doctor Jill and settled for the larger thrill of living for the next four years and the best public housing the world has. As first Lady Jill Biden. Yeah, completely agree with this piece, which made out surprise any of you. I think it's completely correct. I think he's spot on. I think Joe Biden is you know. I think that she's a little high falutin here, and I agree, and I think we

are allowed to make fun of this. I'm sorry. I am not simply not going to bend the knee on this one because they say so. No interest, no interest whatsoever. So that's what I would say. That's where I am on this one. Not calling her doctor Jill, don't call her Jill Biden the first lady. You can call her first Lady, that's fine, or Joe Biden. That's her name. Joe Biden can hem and hall about this as much as he wants, but really the more it's just get ready for a lot of the of the usual tactics

you've seen in the past. They're gonna call this person, They're gonna call this person weeb. It is in the role that is pointing out what's so obvious to all of us sexist get ready for everything is going to be sexist and racist. Again. That's that's the future we're now heading toward in a Democrat bid administration. Whenever they don't like something, it's sexist, it's racist. They're not going

to be arguing on the merits. They're not going to allow for differences of opinion on things that whenever they can get away with it, which is gonna be a lot, they're gonna raise this as an issue. They're gonna be telling people that this is the way it has to be. And I'm sorry, I refuse, I refuse. We gotta come up with something. They already used hashtag resist. We gotta come up with a hashtag, you know, go blank off libs, something like that. You're in the Freedom Hunt. This is

the Buck Sexton Show podcast. Interesting story today at a time when I know the Attorney General has come in for a lot of criticism from Trump's supporters. Interesting story not getting a whole lot of attention here, but a little bit. Special Counsel Durham is expanding his team examining the origins of the Russia collusion problem. Let me tell you what could end up happening here, friends. Well, first, first,

I'll give you the update the story. Fox News has learned that Durham, the USE attorney for Connecticut who bar appointed in October a special councils adding prosecutors to his team. It's unclear who they are, but Fox News a supporter that Jeff j Jeff Jensen, the US attorney for the Eastern District of Missouri, staff by the Justice Department in February or review the case of former aut security advisor

Michael Flynn, was helping the Drum's investigation. So this is it is interesting that the Durham would be expanding his team at this phase now he's a special counsel. Makes it a lot harder, makes it a lot harder for anyone to just shut this down in a Biden administration. I'm not saying it's impossible, but it makes it more complicated, it makes it more politically costly. And here's what I

see happening. If they shut it down, We've already established because they said this under Trump, if they shut down they told us that if Trump shut down the special Collusion I'm sorry, Special Council probe in a Russia collusion, if they shut that down, they would impeach him. Just for shutting it down. We might be able to take the House back in two years. And depending on what this Durham probe finds, wouldn't it be fair play, wouldn't

it be justice? Dare I say if Durham gets the goods on Biden and members of the members of the Obama administration, I mean, who knows what he's really going to find here, right, but people from the Obama administration who could be back in the Biden administration and Biden were to shut down the Durham probe or even try to, maybe it's time for a little Democrat impeachment process and maybe we'll see how they like it. You know, this

could happen. I know it's a ways out. But if we do have a full accounting of Russia collusion, we we'll see if the Democrats are a bunch of corrupt deep state liars and their disgrace, and that the Obama administration that Joe Biden was a part of at a very high level was also a complete and utter disgrace. So don't give up entirely on this. I said Durham

wasn't going to get it done before the election. I didn't realize that there was going to be a special counsel appointed after the election, or that he would be appointed as a special counsel, and this could this could

change things quite a bit. This, this could be very very relevant going forward, because friends, the Russia collusion stuff was was was atrocious, and we know enough now to know that everything we've said about how bad they were and how awful and egregious their actions were, we were telling the truth. We were correct, and they were lying

about this stuff. So Durham being able to find out more here and get to the point where he's able to hold people accountable, I think that could really make a big difference down the line, not right now, but down the line were this is a long fight. Friends, don't don't feel dejected. Don't feel like you know all is lost right now, because I understand there's a tough week with the Electoral Electoral College today and this is

not an easy time. But we still have a lot of fights ahead and the Democrats are going to have their handsful, and I hope this Durham probe makes things a whole lot more challenging for them, that's for sure.

Hey, Team Buck, it's time for roll call Facebook dot com, slash Buck Sex and make

sure you check it on bucksx and dot com. I'm an editorial up today about the need to fight to the end in Georgia and where I think we should be, where our what our mindset should be right now with all this so um Facebook dot com, Slashbuck sexon or Team Buck at iHeartMedia dot com and there we have it. You can also send us messages on a Instagram Direct messages on Instagram Buck Sex and I'm on Instagram and

let's get to it. Gina, Hi again, Buck. A few days ago you mentioned our governor Polis and his wife both had COVID. I need to correct on one point of your story. He actually has a husband. Our media pushed very hard to elect him as the first gay governor in history. He's also very wealthy and refused to live in the governor's mansion as he wanted to stay in his family compound in Boulder. In Polis, the left has not only scored big with identity politics, but also

as an elitist as well. He is truly insufferable, and his edicts have ravaged our economy to what may be a point of no return. Anyway, I just wanted to point it out. Although I agonize over correcting you, I always hang on your every word shield side. Well, Gina, thank you so much. And yeah, I did not know that, so I think I must have read partner or something, and I just my mind went to wife. But apparently

he's married married to a man. I did not know that, So thank you for the correct My understanding is that he's not a good governor. But I know our large Colorado based audience will write in and tell me more about why he is not a particularly good governor. It's a shame. Colorado's pretty pretty blue. I mean, there's there's definitely some red in it, but it's people think of it now is lost to the loss of the Libs, which is a shame. I never really spend any time

in Colorado. I'd like to get out there, Evan hey Buck. On top of all the various undermining of the vaccine, I think one of the most dangerous things the media is doing is villainizing those who aren't following the media's demands and precautions. My mother caught COVID at the beginning of November while wearing a mask, and she was mortified and embarrassed to tell anyone. She was afraid that if she told people, they would think she was being reckless

and lock and looked down on her. She wanted to continue on her life as best she could not tell anyone, which which would then continue to spread. I convinced her to stay home and safe and thank she's all better now. But the media is making those who contract COVID nineteen feel guilty as if they've done something wrong. This isn't helping contain it, it's helping too secretly spread it. Yeah, Evan,

I mean this. You're right about there being this weird COVID shaming that goes on where especially if your thought of as somebody who's conservative, it's like you got COVID because of what you've done, or you deserve it. Most of the people that are getting COVID across the country are mask wearing lockdown advocates, because that's most of the

people across the country period. There's absolutely zero correlation. There's zero evidence whatsoever to suggest that the people who are getting sick are are getting sick because they've made some kind of a personal choice, or they're being your response or anything like that at all. But whenever a Republican gets it, as you've seen, whether it's Trump or Chris Christi or any Republican gets COVID nineteen, it's it's that person's fault. But when a Democrat gets it, Northam and

Virginia got it. You know, Polis, the governor Colorado, got every lots of down. I think Wolf the governor of Pennsylvania, I think that he's had COVID. Whenever they get it, it's just, oh, man, what a contagious virus. Yeah, really tough, really tough to keep yourself healthy. But when Republican gets it, it's, oh, you weren't masking enough. Well, it's just not true. I wonder you know, the UK is going into even more extreme lockdown right now, so at least we know it's

not Trump's fault. There, it's not Trump's fault that the UK is going London, I should say, sorry, London's going into an even tougher tier of lockdown. Down. I mean, we're apparently not allowed to notice that increased lockdown measures work so well. They seem to always result in further lockdown measures. That's how good the lockdowns are. Let's go into phase two, and then we always end up going into phase three, and then you know when we sit there for a while. At point are we allowed to

notice this without being kicked off of social media? Without being told that it's reckless to point any of this out. I just want to know, you know, when is it okay to say, yeah, it turns out that maybe the stuff is not working as planned. Jim Hey bucket Mark. I'm a medical laboratory scientist in Michigan. Just listen to Thursday's show when he talked about the flu cases this year. I can give you the reason why flu cases are so low. It's an easy answer. We aren't testing for it.

My lab, which is in a hospital, usually starts testing for it in mid November and runs hundreds of tests a week in a normal year. As of today, December eleven, twenty twenty, we have yet to run our first test. Hope that helps answer your question. She'll tie. I keep fighting the good fight, fellow patriots. Jim, thank you so much. Yes, that that certainly does answer. That's very very helpful, and

I want to know things like that. But then what I also would want to know is how could they tell is there any reason that someone could not have COVID and the flu at the same time. Is there any reason, because you know, especially as we hear that that the flu you could have for you know, rather the COVID you could have for a few weeks, a couple of weeks at least, and you know, are there people who are coming back positive on Now? When I say have it, I don't necessarily mean having an acting

and infection. But could Here's what I want to know, And I'm asking a question because I don't know. But if we think this thing through it maybe maybe Jim can write in and tell me this as well as many other medical experts who I know listen to this show. We've got some world class doctors to listen to the show. It's great. I mean, Team Buck. Is this repository of incredible knowledge? Would it be possible that you get a positive PCR back on a patient who has symptoms that

could be symptoms that are being called covid? I'm sorry, positive PCR with symptoms that could either be COVID or the flu, and we don't test for the flu, and we assume the person dying is dying from COVID when they're actually dying from a flu infection, but they're positive on the COVID test because the PCR is picking up in earlier infection. Is that possible. It's not possible that

the flu is gone that we know. So if we're not testing for it, well, then that means that there are people who have it and aren't dying from it, because that happens every year in this country who are

not being marked as flu deaths. That has to be That just logically follows, right, So we need to look a little bit more at this and understand these numbers better, because if there's just no testing for flu going on nationwide right now, because there's all this focus on COVID testing, it seems to me like a near certainty we must then be counting some flu deaths as COVID deaths. I'm not saying, I'm not saying it's a conspiracy, but there must be some overlap, and I wonder if it's a

substantial overlap. I would wager I would bet that it probably is. But Jim, thanks again so much for writing. Again, Jay writes in Buck I'm sick of all the secession talk. Secession is easy, It's the coward's way. I have long complained about conservatives moving from liberal states to more conservative states. This action poses several problems. For one, it abandons all of the freedom loving Americans in blue states who for

multiple reasons can't move. But even more, it makes those states even more liberal as conservatives leave, and the more liberal a place becomes, the more psycho left it becomes. I'm originally from California, and I moved to Colorado ten years ago for work and a change of scenery, not for politics. California hasn't always been so crazy left. Even just fifteen years ago, it wasn't so bad. There were bad areas, but there were enough conservatives to keep the

crazy in check. Most of those I know who moves said they were simply tired of fighting. And that's the problem. I'm sorry to say it, but conservatives and Republicans are getting lazy. Liberals win because they fight for what they believe. They take the effort we don't, and it's evident in our politics. We need to stand now to preserve the Union,

not break it up. Don't take the easy way. Well, Jay, there's not going to be a secession And anyone who wants to get bad at me for saying that, can you know, we can come up with some kind of a bet and we'll see who's right. There's not going to be a secession movement. Okay. Republicans actually did very well in this last election, with the exception of Trump at the top of the ticket. That's it. It is true.

Republicans did very well in state houses, governorships. Looks like we're hopefully and that's why I have such a focus on Georgia now hopefully going to retain control of the Senate. And you know, if you have Senate control, you might have a very kind of ineffective and mediocre at best first two years of a Biden presidency. And then I do think they're going to try to I think they're going to try to hand it off the Kamala Harris. I think that that is the plan. I think that's

understood at some level. Maybe they don't hand it off in the first two years, maybe it's in year three or four. I don't know, but I think they are going to try to hand it off. And I would just say now that there are a lot of people who are who are very upset and they understand they see this as being a big threat to our country

and they are angry but the election. I share those feelings, but I, unlike a lot of other people out there, I am not going to exploit the feelings of conservatives across the country for my own ends by trying to drive more audience. I mean, there's there's one there's one channel right now that's doing a lot of this where they're telling people we're gonna win, We're gonna win, don't worry,

We're still gonna win. And it's it's not Fox. There's one channel where they're doing this, and I think that they're doing a disservice to people, but it's it's really just opportunism. I don't view this as principle. I don't view this as principle at this point. Right it was, it's up to the up to a certain phase. You know, you fight and you try to encourage the fight as much as you can. But beyond that, I think there

are people who are exploiting our anger, our frustration. Are are knowing in our core that this election was shady, that there was fraud. People are exploiting this for their own purposes right now, and I don't like that. I cannot abide by that, and I won't do that. So those who are doing it right now because they're hoping to be in the good graces of the movement, so to speak, I think it's I think it's wrong. You're in the freedom Hud. This is the Buck Sex and

Show podcast. All right, more roll call coming to us here. Z We've had ZV reading before. It's a fun name to say, Z rights. Hey, Buck. I'm no law expert, but I think the real problem is that the attorney general from Texas didn't request a reasonable remedy. If the accusations are correct, what can be done to fix it? At this point? Do the legitimate ballots still have integrity? Can they be isolated from the illegitimate ones? I doubt

anything can now be rolled back or corrected. Let me start with this, as I know you wrote in with more than this, but no, I mean the Supreme Court ruling was that they didn't have standing. That essentially, a state cannot say we don't like what this other state did in their election practice and that we think that they allowed fraud. So we want you to invalidate that

other states election. That essentially, they're not going to give some states the ability to try to veto the election processes and other states because it is left up to states to determine how their elections go. Right, That's the basic version. I think of what happened in the Supreme Court, and look, it's it was. It was always going to be a long shot because I remember, one of the problems we keep running up against here is that we

know we know that the safeguards were removed. That's proven, and we know that there were a lot of irregular and sloppy and seemingly fraudulent procedures, but we because of the way it was set up, it's very hard to prove it right. So it's it's a situation where we know that they removed the ways that we'd be able to check on things, and now after the fact, we're trying to do those checks. Because it's I'm trying to

think of a way to say this intelligently. Because it was easy for fraud to be committed here and for them to get away with it. That's not the same thing as being able to prove in accord. Here is the fraud being done right. What we're able to do is show that there was definitely opportunity for fraud, and that based on things like you know, what has been true about elections in previous years, it certainly looks like there was substantial fraud costing Trump the election, right the

you know, for a perfect example is Georgia. I'd make some hard and fast cases and Georgia, there is no reasonable way to prove that two or three percent of mail in ballots in the last Georgia election were rejected and point zero three in this election were rejected. It's unreasonable to believe that you had one hundred one hundred times better voter practices this time around, especially with the expansion of mail in balloting across Georgia in the way

that it happened. But we got to prove that there was actual that there was nefarious action going on. We have to prove it in a court. Right. Knowing something in your gut is not the same thing as being able to prove it in a court, and that's always been the challenge here. And then even beyond the proving in an accurt you have to have a judge who's willing to look at whatever evidence you have. I mean,

judges are looking at these affidavits. I believe these people who are sending in or signing these affidavits, But the judge is going to effectively say it's your word against theirs, not gonna overturn an election on that. That's the problem. This is what I've seen all along, is what I'm saying. And I know people don't want to hear this. They keep saying, Oh, don't worry, you know, unleash the kraken. The Kraken's not gonna cut it, folks. It's not happening.

And it makes me mad. I'm furious about it. But that's where we are. That's where we are now. We should be thinking about what we can do based on where we are today, how we fight now going forward? Anyways? V Rights. Can the Supreme Court force Congress to vote for the president, with the Senate then choosing the vice president? So we would so we will have a Harris Trump administration, assuming Republicans retain their majority. Would this be a better outcome?

I can see why Scotus backed out of this one. Can the Supreme Court force Congress to vote for the president with the Senate then choosing the Vice President as Z. That's not gonna I mean again, that's it's interesting. It's an interesting question. It's not going to happen. Andy writes, Hey, Buck and Mark, with all the craziest going on, we can either get angry and lash out. We can turn

to God. I chose the latter. I stopped listening to a lot of my political podcast during work, but I still listen to the Buck Sexton Show, and for the last twenty minutes of my day, I started reading the Bible. I have to say every time I read, I actually start to feel better. I get a good feeling about life. We would all turn back to our creator and stop denying he exists. I think the world would be in a much better place for me. It works. I know it can't be alone. God bless Buck, Mark, have a

great Christmas in Hanakah. Andy, Thanks so much. I'm with you on that. You know now we've got to look inward a bit. We look inward to God and also turn to each other. We are in this together. We will continue this fight. We know that we have right on our side, and we will not give up until tomorrow. Friends, Shields High
