0:10

You are entering the freedom

0:12

hunt. The

0:15

Jesse Smollett hoax has collapsed.

0:18

He was arrested and arraigned

0:20

today in court. Why did

0:22

the media get this one so wrong?

0:24

And what does it tell us about hate crimes

0:27

that there are now those who are saying

0:29

Smollett might just get off with probation

0:32

at thatt Amore Coming up on the buck Sexton Show.

0:35

This is the buck Sexton

0:37

Show where the mission where mission is

0:39

to decode what really matters with

0:41

actionable intelligence. Make

0:45

no mistake America. You're

0:47

a great American again. The buck Sexton

0:49

Show begins, analysts,

0:53

he's a great guy. Now

0:58

they are looking for two suspect who are apparently

1:00

wearing make America Great Again hats.

1:03

We don't know what happened to Jesse, but what we do know

1:05

is that racism is alive

1:07

and well in this country. There is real evidence

1:10

of people who have done these crimes who cite that the President has

1:12

inspired. Then Senator Corey Booker said,

1:15

the vicious attack when actor Jesse was

1:17

an attempt at modern day lynching a Hollywood

1:20

star who's black and gay and now

1:22

the victim of a heinish crime, not

1:24

of that attack at a star of a TV show, Empire.

1:27

Jesse Smollett from the hit show

1:29

Empire was attacked and beaten early

1:31

this morning in Chicago, and police

1:33

say it could be a hate crime. I'm so shaken by

1:35

the story. I know he walked himself to the hospital.

1:38

Do we know how he is now? Connect the dots.

1:40

This is what happens if you are in a position

1:43

of power and you hate people, and

1:45

this is America. In twenty nineteen, he

1:48

opened up about what he's learned and the

1:50

bigger message he wants the world to hear.

1:52

How can you doubt that? How

1:55

do you not believe that it's the truth. And

1:57

then it became a thing of like, oh,

2:00

it's not necessarily that you don't believe

2:02

that this is the truth. You don't even

2:05

want to see the truth.

2:08

Welcome to the Buck Sexton Show. Sorry,

2:11

we had to start out there with just lies

2:14

and falsehoods and more

2:16

lies and more, all of it false,

2:19

all of that stuff that we were being

2:21

told there by the media, some of the

2:24

biggest platforms in the country,

2:26

some of the most self loving

2:29

journals around, big

2:32

big fans of spreading

2:35

this hoax around there. That's

2:37

what they did. Man,

2:40

it is interesting to be right

2:42

here, I am. Let's just do a

2:45

quick count of where we are team

2:47

versus where the mainstream media is Cavanaugh,

2:50

Covington, Smallett.

2:53

Can they point to any conservative

2:55

hoaxes in the last year. I just wanted

2:57

to where's the big conservative hoax? Or we

2:59

were on this show. I was like, well this

3:01

happened, and no, it didn't happen. My bad ah

3:07

was never never brought up.

3:10

Didn't happen? Did it? Yet?

3:12

Here we are, there's so much

3:14

going on here. Oh, we're gonna have

3:16

some fun on this story. So smallt

3:19

was. Smallett

3:22

was arrested taking down a court

3:24

Today, he's out on a hundred thousand

3:27

dollars bail. And

3:30

you had a member

3:32

of the Chicago PD, I believe it was

3:34

Police chief came Eddie Johnson

3:36

came out today and he lets

3:39

Smollett have it play

3:42

eleven

3:44

attempted to gain attention by sending a false

3:47

letter that relied on racial, homophobic,

3:50

and political language. When that didn't

3:52

work, it's let pay thirty five

3:54

hundred dollars to stage this

3:56

attack and drag Chicago's reputation

3:59

through the mud in the process. And why

4:01

this stunt was orchestrated by Smolette

4:04

because he was dissatisfied with his salary,

4:06

so he concocted a story about being attacked

4:09

to put the national spotlight on Chicago

4:12

for something that is both egregious

4:14

and untrue. Is simply shameful.

4:17

I'm also concerned about what

4:19

this means moving forward to hate

4:21

crimes. Of my concern is that hate

4:23

crimes will now publicly be met with a

4:25

level of skepticism that previously

4:27

didn't happen. Now,

4:30

let's just look at some of the details before we go

4:33

too far to the analysis here. Let's do some of the

4:35

details. Smolett.

4:38

I guess that is how we say his name, I've been Smolett

4:40

Smolet. Perhaps if we wouldn't get

4:43

kind of a French vibe there messieurs Smolet.

4:46

But no, it's it's Smolette. He

4:51

has engaged in, according to police, now

4:54

two to hate

4:56

crime hoaxes. One was sending a letter to

4:58

himself with threatening, threatening

5:01

stuff and racial

5:03

slurs, and then

5:06

this even bigger hoax involving

5:10

a three thousand dollars plus

5:13

payment to two brothers

5:15

who were helping him to stage

5:17

in attack. Some details

5:20

that I think you should know about, though. One

5:22

is that Smolette paid

5:24

the brothers with a check.

5:28

That's right, the thirty five hundred dollars

5:30

was paid via check. Now,

5:33

I'm not some arch criminal, Okay,

5:35

I'm not somebody that you know. I

5:37

don't even like getting a speeding ticket. I stay

5:39

inside the law. But I'm telling you this

5:42

much. If I

5:44

were trying to engage in some illegal

5:47

activity of this kind to

5:49

stage some kind of an elaborate hoax, I

5:52

think I'd pay cash. I just

5:55

think that's a better move than

5:57

to leave an obvious financial

6:00

she'll trail to your co conspirators. I'm

6:02

just putting that out there. Probably

6:05

a good move. Also, since

6:08

since we're gonna break down, I'm sorry,

6:10

this is the dumbest hate crime hoax that

6:12

I that I've heard

6:14

of or seen in years. I mean, there's some

6:17

very dumb ones out there, but this one

6:19

is. Wow. Smolette

6:24

is not exactly an

6:26

evil genius. So

6:29

he paid these kys via check.

6:33

I wonder how he's gonna explain that one to the cops I

6:35

saw today, As lawyers say, he's looking forward to clearing

6:37

his name. Yeah,

6:39

how are you gonna do that? Exactly? But

6:42

the two guys that he the two

6:44

brothers that he paid

6:46

to help

6:49

him in this attack, which is also I would

6:51

note, an enormous, an

6:54

enormous mistake. The osund Row brothers,

6:56

Olah and Abel, they

7:00

went into a hardware store and

7:03

bought masks,

7:07

red hats, and rope

7:09

for the quote noose and

7:12

they did this on video.

7:16

I've also heard that they had the

7:18

magazines that they used to cut the letters

7:21

out of to create there. But I'm

7:23

sure there's DNA in it, by the way, I

7:25

mean, if they're showing up on video buying

7:27

this stuff, they probably paid with credit card

7:30

too. I mean, I just these guys. This

7:32

is the most

7:34

bumbling, buffoonish

7:37

hoax hate crime imaginable. And

7:39

yet look how long it took for the media to finally

7:42

turn this around. Look

7:44

how long before they were willing to say, you know what,

7:46

maybe we made some kind of a mistake here,

7:49

maybe there's maybe there's an issue. And

7:52

now they're saying, well that the Democrats

7:54

who were initially jumping in are saying, ah,

7:56

we might have made we might have made a little mistake here.

7:59

We might have Kamala Harris Kirston

8:02

Jilla Brand, who

8:04

I really enjoyed Tucker's monologue

8:07

last not on his show, on Kirston Jill brand Worth

8:09

going back and seeing if you haven't worre Mache's

8:11

just a nasty phony, just

8:13

an out and out phony.

8:16

But Democrats don't mind that kind of stuff. But

8:19

Jilla brand and Harris and Booker,

8:21

they've all come out and sure

8:24

enough after

8:26

saying that this was terrible

8:28

and oh it's Trump's fault and all this stuff, now I'm like,

8:30

yeah, you know, maybe you

8:33

know, maybe we should have waited a little bit, Maybe we should

8:35

wait for the facts. Now, Oh, wait for the facts

8:38

now. Okay, okay,

8:42

that's interesting. Let's

8:44

give you some more facts. Since they want to wait

8:47

for facts, here's the police chief, Eddie

8:49

Johnson, talking about more of the stuff

8:52

that they have. Play eleven. Oh,

8:57

I'm sorry, Play ten. This

9:00

case, in particular involved

9:02

hours of video evidence, which,

9:04

when combined with old fashioned police work,

9:06

uncovered the truth. These

9:09

detectives deserve all the credit

9:11

in the world for carefully analyzing the leads

9:14

and the evidence for weeks before coming

9:16

to their conclusion. I'd

9:18

also like to thank the FBI for

9:20

their helping this investigation. I

9:22

only hope that the truth about

9:24

what happened receives the same amount

9:27

of attention that the Hopes did. I'll

9:30

continue to pray for its troubled

9:32

young man who resorted to both

9:34

drastic and illegal tactics

9:37

to gain attention. We

9:40

know that it won't receive the same amount of attention

9:42

though. We know that

9:44

the multi

9:47

billion dollars news media apparatus

9:49

in this country is going to

9:51

find a way to quickly, as

9:53

quickly as possible, move right

9:56

past this story because their audience

9:58

doesn't want to hear about this. Their

10:00

audience want to be told, hey, crimes

10:03

are rising, Hey crimes

10:05

are rising, And I say, wow,

10:08

where on what time

10:10

frame? What kind of crimes

10:13

attributable to whom? When

10:15

you actually look at the numbers, what you find out, by the

10:18

way, is that the single single

10:20

group that suffers religious group that suffers

10:23

the greatest amount of hate crimes, for example, is anti

10:27

submiticate crimes. But the

10:29

left is not that they don't turn those

10:31

into national news stories. Generally,

10:34

this is a national

10:37

news story, a black gay

10:39

actor attacked by Trump's

10:41

supporters. It couldn't have been more

10:44

perfect. It's it's like this was concocted,

10:47

this whole story by a

10:49

couple of you know, undergrad

10:52

film majors covered with hashtag

10:54

resistance tattoos in some you

10:57

know coffee shop in Los Angeles. I mean,

10:59

this should not have ever even nobody

11:03

should have ever thought that this was a good

11:05

plan and this made any

11:07

sense, and that Jesse Smollett,

11:10

who or Smolette who is an actor,

11:12

couldn't have come up with a more convincing

11:15

story. I don't know, I haven't

11:17

seen him in the show Empire, but you can't

11:19

be a very good actor. I'm just guessing the

11:22

cops thought that this might have been a hoax from the beginning.

11:24

They tried to give him the benefit of the

11:26

doubt. Play

11:28

thirteen here, John Well,

11:32

to be perfectly honest, from the very

11:34

beginning, we had some questions about

11:36

it, but as I said, we gave

11:38

mister Smolett the benefit of the doubt

11:41

all the way up until that forty seventh hour

11:44

of the forty eight hours, we could hold those two individuals

11:46

because we just didn't have the total

11:48

package to support that it was a hoax.

11:51

So when you heard me coming out saying we

11:53

are treating him like a victim, that

11:55

was the truth, because at that time that's

11:58

what he was speaking

12:01

of. Victims. You know who Smilette victimized

12:04

here, not just the millions of Trump supporters

12:06

across the country who knew that

12:09

their reputations collectively

12:11

were being tarnished. You

12:13

know that this was always meant to be a

12:16

judgment on all of us, those who vote

12:18

for Trump, who support Trump, who believe in

12:21

his promise to make America great again. We

12:23

were the bad guys. That's

12:26

what was at the heart of this. But

12:29

the people that really suffered are the people of Chicago,

12:31

with the over a dozen law

12:34

enforcement officers who were

12:36

assigned to this. When

12:38

you have a city that has a terrible

12:40

violence problem and a very

12:43

high unsolved murder rate to

12:46

bring those kinds of police resources, I've

12:48

seen estimates that this might have even cost in terms

12:50

of police man hours, hundreds

12:52

of thousands of dollars, hundreds

12:55

of thousands of dollars spent so

12:57

that this clown Smolette

13:02

could turn himself into

13:04

some kind of cause celeb

13:07

turn himself into not just a celebrity,

13:09

but that rarefied and oh

13:11

so desirable

13:14

on the left, victimized

13:16

celebrity, special

13:19

category, social justice

13:21

approved celebrity.

13:24

Oh what could be more wonderful

13:27

than that? But

13:30

he was upset. He

13:33

was upset with his salary on the show

13:35

and thought if he got more attention, he would

13:37

make more money. So Smolette

13:40

is a narcissist,

13:43

an idiot, and a

13:45

bratt Think

13:47

of how many people rushed to

13:49

his aid to believe him, to

13:51

run interference for him. Think

13:53

of how this became a national news

13:55

story. None

13:58

of the kids who have been shot in chicag I go

14:00

in the last thirty or sixty days, none

14:02

of them have turned into national news stories. Lives

14:05

lost, family shattered. That that doesn't

14:07

get the media's attention. This a

14:10

guy who I also read today,

14:12

created his own wound. I

14:15

mean that little scratch on his face. If

14:17

two guys poured bleach

14:20

on you and put a noose around

14:22

your neck and manage to do that, and

14:24

we're trying to hurt you, I think you'd have more than a tiny

14:26

little scratch on your cheek. I mean it looked like he cut

14:28

himself shaving. Whose

14:33

terrible attack. You know it

14:35

was all a lie. It was all

14:37

a lie. And I know that there are

14:39

other things in the country we should focus on, and we will

14:41

shortly, But today is when the whole thing finally

14:44

came crashing down. So you'll have to excuse

14:46

me if I have a moment here to just say, isn't

14:49

it good to be right? Team?

14:52

You listen to this show. I don't have a I don't

14:54

have a hundred reporters. I don't have

14:56

some huge newsroom at my beck and

14:58

call and everything else. I just read

15:00

and think and analyze and

15:03

bring all of the knowledge and all the assistance

15:06

that I can from all of you who listen into

15:08

that process. And somehow we know. We

15:11

knew this was garbage. That's

15:13

why we kept doing the Jessie Small and updates as

15:15

we went along. Year up, it looks pretty bad.

15:19

So we were right and they were wrong. The fake

15:21

news can't figure it out, but we can. We

15:23

should do a little victory dance, and you know what today

15:25

is victory dance Day. We'll be right back. Can

15:31

we be honest? But to certain

15:34

groups of people, even

15:36

if they were skeptical there, like they said, I

15:38

hope this is not true. Black folks,

15:41

gay folks, people are

15:43

like, oh my god, I hope you

15:45

know why. And you know why black folks,

15:47

gay folks say that because they are real

15:49

victims of well, because there are real victims

15:52

of homophobia and of racism,

15:55

but also because unfortunately we tend

15:57

to all be painted with the same brush when

15:59

one person and does wrong. And

16:01

that's why we always say that when something goes

16:03

wrong, is we hope the person is not black, We

16:06

hope the person is not gay. Yeah, I

16:09

don't agree with a lot of people

16:11

that are out there saying that this,

16:13

this hurts the victims of real hate crimes,

16:15

because real hate crimes are

16:17

crimes, right, great, No

16:20

one, no one hears a story about

16:22

you know, some some bad person

16:25

somewhere who are you know, No one

16:27

hears a story about some bad person who attacks

16:30

you know, a woman because she's you

16:32

know, wearing a her job or because you

16:34

know, and says, well, that can't be true.

16:37

And if it is true, everyone wants the person punished.

16:40

But those are those are real. And look, there are

16:42

a lot of hoaxes out there too that involve things like that. But

16:45

you know, though those are real things. I

16:47

don't. I don't agree with this, This completely

16:51

implausible story that Jesse Smollett,

16:54

you know, fool the media into into

16:56

believing somehow now undermines everybody.

16:59

No, you know, if someone

17:01

says something terrible and racist and punches somebody

17:03

in the face outside of a restaurant

17:05

somewhere. My first reaction is I'm like, oh,

17:07

that's terrible. You know, I wonder did the police get them?

17:09

What happened? When someone says

17:12

that, you know they had two Maga hot

17:14

wearing noose carrying

17:17

you know, this is Maga Country

17:19

yelling guys in Chicago at two o'clock

17:22

in the morning. You know, No, it

17:24

just wasn't incredible. It was

17:26

incredible. Don

17:29

Lemons also he said that he's been texting,

17:32

you know, he's over at CNN. I used to dude, Don show

17:34

a fair amountain then I wised up. It's

17:37

texting frequently with Smolette.

17:40

Doesn't that impact the coverage? I

17:42

mean I always say if someone's a friend,

17:44

not because I'm like the person's my friend, but because

17:46

I want you to know that if there's someone I have to talk about

17:48

here on the show that I have any kind of personal

17:50

relationship with, I think you should at least know that.

17:53

And as you know, I also don't trash my friends.

17:55

I have a rule. I don't trash friends on

17:58

air, but or

18:00

even particularly harshly criticize

18:02

them.

18:05

That said, why is it okay for Don Lemon

18:07

to have a personal relationship with this guy and do stories

18:09

on him night after night on the show. I'm

18:12

just wondering, well, where are the journal is

18:15

John? Is Don Lemon a journalist? Is

18:18

any mean Don Lemon? Is he a journalist?

18:20

Does CNN have a Can they give us an official

18:22

ruling on that? I mean, he's obviously not, but I just want

18:24

to know if CNN is delusional

18:27

enough to think that he is. Eight four four

18:29

nine hundred two eight two five. Let's open up those lines,

18:31

team, tell much to think about this small Lett

18:33

situation. Eight four four nine hundred

18:36

two eight two five eight four four nine hundred

18:38

buck light him up. I

18:42

know, Jesse, I love him. We have to

18:44

understand this is happening for

18:47

a reason. Why all of a sudden do

18:49

we have people unable to study well,

18:51

black, unable to mo alan

18:53

while black, unable to have a picnic while

18:56

black, and being attacked. It's coming

18:58

from the President of the United States, Dog

19:00

Whistlin. Every day he's separating

19:03

and dividing, and he is

19:05

basically embolding those folks.

19:09

This is the problem with the

19:13

approach that the Democrat politicians

19:16

and the media take to these situations where they just say,

19:18

well, we're gonna go all in on what

19:20

we want it to be, what we want to be

19:22

true, and then if we're proven to

19:24

be completely and utterly wrong, which they have been,

19:27

yeah, maybe we'll walk it back a little bit, or we'll

19:29

just move on to something else. And the

19:32

media will say, Okay, maybe we got that wrong,

19:34

but you know, no big

19:36

deal. The problem is that

19:38

there is lasting damage that

19:41

is created from the propagation

19:44

of the lie. There

19:47

you had Maxiine Waters, very well known

19:49

member of Congress. I believe she's on

19:51

the now. She

19:53

might be running the finance

19:57

I ever forget, not not the oversight

19:59

Committe, it's some kind of financial committee.

20:01

I forget what a producer, Mike, we let me know what it is. She's

20:04

a She's on a pretty important committee in Congress now

20:06

because the Democrats obviously control the House. But

20:09

she just went through this whole thing of essentially

20:12

telling any any person listening,

20:15

and I think it would resonate, particularly with Black

20:18

Americans, that

20:21

you know, you can't quote study while black,

20:24

have a picnic while black. All

20:27

these she says all these things, and

20:30

it's reckless for her to say these things because

20:33

it's just not true. What she's

20:35

saying is not true, and Jessie the

20:37

the lie that he told. Even if it were true,

20:39

it wouldn't prove all these things that she says. But

20:43

people will hear Maxi and Waters

20:46

using this incident in

20:49

order to create this

20:51

this storyline about how America

20:53

is still so racist. I mean, the left is so

20:55

invested in making

20:58

Americans believe but we are a uniquely

21:01

and deeply and irredeemably

21:04

racist country that

21:06

there's a desperation to find racism

21:09

all the time. I would just

21:11

note that if we were so racist, it wouldn't

21:13

be so hard to find real instances

21:16

of national news level racism.

21:19

They would not have to make it

21:21

up. And that's why I read do You Last No?

21:24

Earlier this week that string.

21:26

She's the House Financial Services She's the chairman

21:29

of the House Financial Services Committee. Maxie Waters,

21:31

Yeah, that was the one. So

21:35

I read you that string of hoaxes because

21:38

I don't want any of you to think, because you'll

21:40

hear it in the media. Oh hey, crimes are on the rise

21:42

and hoaxes are rare. M Actually

21:44

not true. Why

21:47

would there ever be a hoax of this kind? It's

21:50

so strange, how many hoax burglaries.

21:52

Do you know of how many hoax

21:54

you know? Go down the list where where do the hoaxes

21:56

occur? Usually where there's some political incentive,

21:59

which then to among

22:02

the dumbest questions of all that will

22:04

be asked now and you will see

22:06

people asking this question. I guarantee

22:09

it. Why would he do

22:11

this? Why would JUSSI

22:14

do this? He has he has nothing

22:16

to gain. Where have you heard this before?

22:18

By the way, he

22:20

has nothing. Oh, just like how Christine

22:23

blasi Ford, another fabricator,

22:27

had nothing to gain.

22:31

Hm, she had lots

22:33

to gain. Actually, as we know, Smollett

22:38

clearly thought he had a lot to gain from

22:40

this, and for the first few

22:42

weeks he did national news story sympathetic

22:45

anchors, He sat down with Robin

22:47

Roberts at ABC, and

22:50

you know became he became a trending

22:53

topic on social media. Everybody

22:56

was you know, he had he had future president

22:59

or current presidential candidates jumping

23:03

forward to come to Jesse's

23:06

defense. Everybody

23:09

knows that this can also

23:11

result not just in the elevation of your

23:13

profile, but the acceleration of

23:15

your career and

23:17

the enrichment of

23:19

your bank accounts. Look at Colin Kaepernick.

23:23

Colin Kaepernick was past his prime

23:25

NFL quarterback. The people

23:28

that I know who know football, that I trust, I've talked about

23:30

this many times before, and they're like, the guy, he just wasn't

23:32

that good. And he was

23:34

doing something with his taking of the knee

23:37

and his pig socks for cops.

23:40

He was doing stuff that alienated the

23:42

audience. And guess what, No

23:44

one has a civil right to be a professional

23:46

football player. No one has

23:48

a guarantee that they get to be a multi

23:50

millionaire athlete. It is

23:53

entertainment. If your movies

23:55

stink, you don't get to be in more

23:57

movies. At least you shouldn't be If people

23:59

don't want to watch you on a football field, doesn't

24:01

matter how good you are, you're

24:03

a liability. And Kaepernick wasn't that

24:06

good. Pebel didn't

24:08

want him. Oh

24:10

but then he turned into a social justice

24:12

hero and now he's a major

24:14

Nike figure and there's all these

24:16

campaigns out there for millions and millions

24:19

more dollars because

24:21

of essentially his agitation.

24:25

No policy has changed because of Kaepernick.

24:27

Then nothing, There's been no benefit

24:30

of what Kaepernick has done. Oh, he started

24:33

a conversation on race we have conversations

24:35

on race all the time. I mean, that was one

24:37

of the one of the most insane things of many

24:39

things that Attorney General Eric

24:42

Holder back in the Obama day said was, you know,

24:44

we're cowards when it comes to race. We don't have talks

24:46

about race. The left

24:48

wants to talk about race pretty much all day, all the

24:50

time. If you turn on MSNBC

24:53

or CNN. Other than

24:55

the Russia collusion delusion,

24:57

their favorite thing to talk about is race number

25:01

one. And I was a

25:03

contributor at CNN. I

25:06

knows I come to you, I come

25:08

to you with with

25:11

with stories of abuse

25:13

and gas lighting and all kinds of stuff

25:16

from being over there. But I remember

25:18

when the Black Lives Matter

25:21

movement based on Mike

25:23

Brown and all that that was really

25:25

a that was the biggest news

25:27

story in the country. They were running

25:29

stories on it all the time, and they couldn't

25:32

get enough of it because they thought their audience couldn't get

25:34

enough of it. Meanwhile,

25:36

the fact that Mike Brown attacked a cop and

25:39

got shot after he you

25:41

know, robbed a store a few minutes before.

25:43

I mean, the guy, the guys who the

25:45

guy is a thug is

25:47

apparently know how to say that. That's not they don't like even

25:50

though thugs come from the Thugy

25:52

cult in India, occult based

25:54

on strangulation that some estimates go

25:57

as high as killed in the high

25:59

hundreds of thousands of people. It

26:01

was a religious cult. It's actually the Thugy cult

26:03

in India is the loosely

26:06

the basis for the

26:08

evil cult in Indiana Jones and

26:10

the Temple of Doom Boom,

26:14

Did your mind just explode? But

26:17

the Thugie cult was nineteenth

26:19

century and the British

26:22

authorities were the ones who rooted it out.

26:25

But that's where the term thug comes from. And

26:28

we're not supposed to say thug though, So you could say Mike Brown

26:30

was a hooligan? Is that

26:32

better a ruffian? You

26:36

know, a vandal?

26:39

You know, I don't know. You have to sort of

26:41

pick your your term. That won't all of a sudden be

26:43

oh, you can't use that term. He was treated

26:45

like a martyr of some kind of movement and

26:48

CNN would run these stories night after night after

26:50

night. It was it was they

26:52

were complicit in racial

26:55

Mike producer Mike comes up with a good word

26:57

for him, Well done, Mike, a criminal

27:00

Mike Brown a criminal who

27:02

got shot. Thank you, Mike, well

27:04

played any time. Yeah.

27:06

So they they held this

27:09

up as oh, you know, this, this

27:11

movement and it's going to change police relations.

27:13

This was when you had the first black president

27:15

in office, and yet still we're told, so the

27:17

country is so racist, it's so terrible. And

27:20

I would just say, as I point to these hoaxes,

27:23

if the country's so racist, why

27:27

must they elevate a hoax

27:29

in this way? Why must the left

27:31

do this? If the country were so

27:34

racist and police were so racist

27:36

in particular, why is

27:38

the center of the biggest political

27:40

movement about police violence

27:43

an individual who was

27:46

lawfully shot by an officer defending

27:49

himself. That

27:52

that's that's the that's the person you're going to

27:54

build a movement around. And

27:58

again, the agitation here

28:01

is clear that the purposes of this is not to create

28:03

some kind of harmony. It's to keep people divided.

28:06

It's to keep people angry with

28:08

each other, and it's to feed them these

28:10

narratives of victimology and

28:12

suffering and hatred that

28:15

are very appealing to people. Why

28:17

is Jose Smallett as a victim appealing

28:19

well, because then then he gets

28:22

to get all the sympathy from the media, and he gets

28:24

to tell his story. And you know, why

28:26

would he lie because it benefits him

28:28

to lie. Why do people like to

28:30

hear these stories of victimhood

28:33

because they will translate it into their

28:35

own perceived victimhood.

28:38

Oh, this has been unfair to me, that has been unfairming.

28:40

Here's the truth is. Life is not fair,

28:43

never has been, never will be. Everybody,

28:46

at different times and in different ways, has

28:48

been on the wrong side of an unjust

28:51

situation. But we also,

28:53

all of us, myself included, make

28:57

bad choices, sometimes get

28:59

a little lazy, don't do

29:01

the right thing, don't do what we know

29:04

we should do. Sometimes

29:06

you do enough of that and your

29:08

life trajectory starts to change.

29:11

Sometimes you you start to see, yeah,

29:13

we all make mistakes, right, but you make enough mistakes

29:15

and you've got more

29:18

of a of a macro level

29:20

problem on your hands. Right. You know this is this

29:23

is It's like the difference between binging

29:26

on you know, a dozen donuts and

29:28

eating a dozen donuts every night before you go to sleep

29:30

for about six months. The latter is

29:32

going to actually have an impact in your life. It's not

29:34

going to be very healthy for you, right, you make bad

29:36

decisions. Don't donuts?

29:38

Sounds so good? Right now, I'm really hungry. You

29:42

make bad decisions and you have

29:44

to deal with those decisions. But what if, what

29:48

if I could tell you that there's

29:50

a story, a story

29:52

that I could promote to all of you listening that

29:55

would make you think that, No, it's

29:57

not that you've made any bad decisions, or

29:59

that you would have made better decisions. It's

30:01

not your own lack of discipline,

30:04

or or or just bad

30:06

luck or any of these. No, no no, it's none of that. There

30:09

are bad people out there, Trump

30:12

supporters. There are bad people out

30:14

there who are the cause of

30:17

the disappointments in your life. There are bad people

30:20

out there, the other here, the

30:23

patriarchy, white male

30:25

Christians, Trump supporters, MAGA

30:28

hat wearers, and they

30:30

are the reason for your

30:32

disappointments in life. It's

30:34

not in your hands, it is it is those

30:36

other people that are unfortunately

30:39

individuals like to hear this. It

30:43

frees them from the uncomfortable

30:45

every and I mean this for whoever you are. It's

30:47

always better. You know, whether it's you think you're being victimized

30:49

by you know, your boss at the office,

30:52

or you know your your your social

30:54

life is not what you think it should be because of

30:56

it's it's just like envy, right.

30:59

The politics of envy are so powerful

31:01

because we all see people that are

31:03

spending more money on a yacht than we'll

31:05

make in a lifetime and say, is that guy really

31:07

so much smarter than me? Well,

31:09

when you look at identity politics, and

31:12

you add into those identity politics

31:14

the victimology narrative, and

31:18

you look at and this is at the heart

31:20

of intersectionality. All these different groups are pressing

31:22

each other. It's not that any group should sit

31:24

down and think to itself. First

31:26

of all, do we want to even be judged as a group? Aren't

31:28

we just individuals? Aren't we all just human beings

31:30

with goals, aspirations, hopes,

31:33

loves, desires. Do we have

31:35

to be always thought of as in this group? But even if

31:37

you're going to think about it as a group, isn't

31:41

it more comforting? Isn't it easier

31:45

to be told that whatever's going

31:47

wrong and wrong in your life, it's because you're part

31:49

of this group, and it's because there are other people

31:51

that are holding you down. It's

31:54

a seductive narrative and

31:56

it's at the heart of the

31:58

current obsession with victimhood

32:01

in this country, and

32:03

also understand this victimhood is a means

32:06

of not just achieving

32:10

for oneself a

32:12

kind of immunity and an

32:14

excuse, but also

32:17

claiming victim's status is a way of

32:19

seizing power from those that

32:22

you think should not have it,

32:24

especially people who

32:27

seek to be ethical in their doings. Nobody

32:30

wants to be victimizing somebody else. Guilt

32:33

is a very powerful tool in our politics as

32:36

well. All of this factors in

32:38

to this mess

32:41

that is the Rushi, the

32:43

Jussie Smollett hoax.

32:48

All right, team, we've got a lot more so.

32:50

There's an IRS analyst that

32:53

was the latest deep state clown on the scene.

32:55

We'll talk about what he did. I've got

32:57

some mccave thoughts for you. He's a bad guy.

32:59

Knows rise there and and so so

33:01

much more. Show. Oh, and I

33:04

hate crime against a conservative that

33:07

you'll hear about here. In fact, we'll bring

33:09

you up to speed with the latest on it that you

33:11

probably won't hear anywhere else. Happened in UC

33:14

Berkeley. Somebody got really

33:16

badly beat up because

33:19

he's a conservative. Have you seen that on CNN

33:21

tonight? I don't think so, but don't be watching CNN.

33:23

We'll be right back Kenny

33:28

and Boston, my brother from Boston.

33:30

What's up, Kenny, Hey Buck

33:32

A long time no talk. It's great.

33:35

You make up a good point here with the

33:38

him being stupid, but I'm kind of

33:40

really this is really bothering

33:42

me because I can't think he could be that stupid. Now,

33:44

he wanted to be on camera, You wanted this thing

33:47

to be on camera, but he chose two black dudes

33:49

and he calls them white dudes and report

33:51

wouldn't that have been seen on the camera?

33:53

Why is he It's almost like he wanted

33:55

to be caught where he's deliberately being sloppy

33:59

and um because even now he's

34:01

still denying and vowing

34:04

to fight these charges and exonerate

34:06

his name. And then also

34:08

what about that manager or agent

34:11

that he was on the phone with. I don't hear anything

34:13

good good point about the manager or agent. Was he

34:15

in on it or was it just he got pulled

34:17

into the hoax? Unknowingly right, he might have

34:19

gotten a call from him where he

34:21

did through this whole thing, but you know who really knows.

34:23

But I would say this to you, Kenny, to your theory,

34:26

which which I think is is well thought out.

34:29

What if, though, what if

34:31

Jesse's Smallett is just

34:33

really, really dumb? Just

34:36

just leave leave that open as a possibility,

34:38

leave that opener. What

34:41

if he is in fact? Because you're right, I mean, it's

34:43

so stupid that it's hard to believe he could be

34:45

that stupid. But what if he is, It's

34:48

possible. And as to the pronunciation

34:50

of his name, we always talk about the pronunciation

34:52

of the last me, but what about the first name. It's spelled

34:55

with the You shouldn't he be called juicy? You

34:58

know, I was always thinking, you know not. I'll

35:00

see it's a juicy

35:01

right anyway.

35:03

Yeah, I don't know that joke. That joke

35:05

kills on the South Side. Thanks for calling, Kenny,

35:08

could to talk to you, man? Uh, could

35:10

talk to you? Oh man, it's already

35:13

next hour time. So the

35:16

deep State, it's a thing. What

35:18

have they been up too lately? Well, we

35:21

have somebody who gotten quite a bit of trouble

35:23

or could be in quite a bit of trouble based

35:26

on his desire to

35:29

take down Michael

35:31

Cohen, Trump's lawyer, with

35:34

confidential government information leaked

35:37

to the press. What does

35:39

this tell us about things and also what's

35:41

the latest on the Mullaprobe

35:44

team. Strap in an hour two is gonna rock

35:46

it. He

35:50

has to make a decision. Is he going to be the people's

35:52

lawyer or is he going to be the president's

35:54

lawyer. Clearly, this president regards

35:56

the attorney general as one of his minions. He

35:59

has no respect for the rule of law, in

36:01

fact, utter contempt for judges

36:04

and the judicial process. And he

36:06

has denounced relentlessly

36:09

and unstintingly the FBI and other

36:11

law enforcement absolutely unpressman

36:14

it shattering all the norms. William

36:16

Barr is a professional, at

36:18

least he should be, and he's going to have to

36:20

stand up and speak out for the Department of Justice

36:23

and the rule of law, and that will make

36:25

his ride a pretty wild one. Oh,

36:27

I'm sure denang Dick is really

36:30

gonna sway Bar one

36:32

way or the other with his usual slimy

36:35

antics there the people.

36:37

Will he be the people's lawyer or one of Trump's

36:39

minions. Look, Barr

36:42

is a guy who has done

36:44

this before. Okay, he's been to this rodeo

36:46

before. He was well

36:49

respected then, he is well respected

36:51

now. He obviously can do the job. And

36:53

that's why even the

36:55

lunatics in the Senate on the

36:58

Democrat side could not come up with

37:00

a real rationale to try

37:02

and stop him. So he's

37:04

now the Attorney General, and thankfully,

37:07

it looks like we are heading into the

37:10

end of the Muller nightmare.

37:13

Although it's, as I've said, not going to

37:15

result in an end to investigations

37:17

of Trump. It's not like they're going to just say, Okay,

37:20

you know, well, we're gonna move on to other stuff now.

37:22

Nope, They're gonna keep drilling

37:25

down and drilling down because

37:27

when they can't win the argument, they figure they

37:29

can win just through harassment,

37:33

which is the point

37:35

here, just through harassment.

37:38

So we'll see if the Special Council

37:40

ends next week. I've been telling you that for a while. It looks

37:42

likely a lot of people have reported on it, and

37:45

it would make sense. But in the meantime,

37:48

got some other updates for you. Roger Stone.

37:51

I have to tell you, I kind of like Roger, you

37:53

know, every time I've talked to him, interviewed him. I

37:56

like Roger. I like Carter Page too. Carter

37:58

Page are really really

38:00

nice, friendly, unpretentious

38:03

dude, and Roger Stone

38:05

look He's a character for sure,

38:08

and I bet if you get on the wrong side of him,

38:10

he's not very pleasant. But I kind

38:12

of like Roger Stone. Oh I'm

38:14

a pundit. I'm allowed to like and dislike people. I don't

38:16

have to pretend to be neutral. And it's

38:18

pretty amazing the career

38:21

that he has had in politics,

38:24

stretching back for many, many decades. Well, anyway,

38:26

Roger is whereas

38:29

a political operative. At least Roger is

38:32

not able to speak publicly anymore about

38:34

his case that just came out today. Federal

38:37

Judge Amy Berman restricted

38:41

Stone's ability to speak publicly about his case

38:43

because she says

38:46

Stone posted and then removed a

38:48

photo of the judge on Instagram

38:50

that had crosshairs. Now, Stone said

38:52

it was a Celtic cross but

38:54

had crosshairs behind her

38:57

head. So he

38:59

gave a formal apology, or rather, his lawyers

39:02

wrote up a formal apology for him,

39:05

and I guess we're moving

39:07

past the matter now. But Stone

39:09

is no longer so I'm glad we got an interview

39:12

with him when we could over at Rising. I should have

39:14

had him on radio. I didn't even think about that. But

39:17

Stone is no longer going to be able

39:20

to tell the public what he thinks about

39:22

the trial he faces. I'm gonna tell you this, and I

39:24

spoke to a Democrat lawyer recently

39:26

off the record about

39:29

the like he thinks that Stone.

39:31

He agrees with me because I said, I've read the

39:34

stuff. I think if Stone

39:36

fights this, he won't beat all the

39:38

charges, but he will beat some of them. The

39:41

witness tampering charge is bull.

39:44

It's a bull charge. He

39:46

can beat that. But the ways,

39:48

the way the federal prosecution

39:51

works is if

39:53

even if he beats that charge, but he goes to trial

39:56

and other charges and they get I mean, he's going to prison

39:59

for years in years,

40:01

So is he really going to see Is

40:03

he going to see this all the way

40:05

through? Is he willing to see this all the way

40:07

through? Well,

40:10

we'll have to see. But I do

40:12

think he'll beat you, mark my words, if

40:14

this goes, If this goes all the way, I

40:16

think he'll win on the witness tampering charges, which will

40:18

just show you, even though it means that Roger

40:20

will probably go to prison on the lying under oath

40:23

part of this, it'll show you

40:25

that the Special Castle

40:27

was looking to just crush anybody

40:30

around Trump and that even

40:33

when they had other charges that they could have made,

40:35

that they were trying to do the count of endless

40:37

counts. They were trying to stack the deck against

40:39

him. Then one other thing,

40:41

that's that's in the Muller

40:44

deep state anti Trump

40:46

investigation world. That it's a little

40:48

bit of a rough transition there, but hey, you know

40:50

it's live radio. So federal

40:53

prosecutors have charged

40:55

an analyst with the Internal

40:58

Revenue Service for illegue disclosing

41:01

confidential reports about Michael Cohen's

41:03

bank records. This was

41:06

to show that Cohen was

41:09

trying to profit from his

41:11

access to the Trump White House. Now

41:13

you might say, buck, who really cares about this guy John

41:16

Fridy, IRS

41:18

analyst, Which you

41:20

know, Hey, I'm in Delaware

41:23

as an IRS analyst. Why

41:27

are we talking about this guy? Well, because yet

41:30

again we have a federal bureaucrat,

41:33

another one of these government

41:35

employees who

41:38

was willing, was

41:40

willing to throw his career

41:43

and perhaps his freedom away

41:46

just to get a little pad on the head from

41:48

some journos at the Washington Post

41:50

and the New Yorker. And assuming

41:53

this is true, again, assuming

41:56

that this is true,

42:00

you know, that's that's what I think we all need to

42:02

keep in mind here. It's possible that's not true,

42:04

but it's probably true.

42:07

Why is it that you didn't have this? I

42:10

speak to you often about the mentality in

42:13

the federal government that

42:15

is statist in its inclinations

42:17

and therefore favors Democrats

42:20

and favors the system in general.

42:23

So with all of that, why

42:25

is it that we expect

42:28

that there'll be these kinds of leaks against

42:30

Trump? More deep staters

42:32

that are deciding to take a an

42:35

opportunity to just

42:37

put something out there in the news to take

42:39

down Trump. Look at that that woman who what

42:42

was gosh, she had to vary. Her name

42:44

was like Victory Champion or something, right, what was

42:46

her name? Reality Winner? I

42:48

think it was is that was that

42:50

her name? And look, my name is Buck

42:52

Sexton, I know, but Reality Winners quite

42:55

a name. I

42:57

think she didn't. She get five years in federal

43:00

prison for leaking the classified information

43:04

because she thought that it proved Russia collusion

43:06

or something. I mean, people are hysterical

43:09

inside the government, and they will abuse.

43:11

These hysterical leftists inside the

43:13

government will abuse their sensitive

43:16

and classified access illegally

43:20

as long as it hurts Trump or someone around Trump.

43:23

You just did not have

43:25

this during

43:27

the Obama years. Nobody was risking

43:30

their freedom to try

43:33

to damage Obama in the news cycle

43:35

for a day or two, and nobody in the federal government

43:37

was doing that. They

43:40

just weren't. And of

43:42

course Obama was horrible on leakers, as

43:44

we know. He was the worst abuser

43:47

of the Espionage Act in in American

43:50

history and the most aggressive

43:52

president in dealing with the in going

43:55

after the press probably

43:57

since FDR and Woodrow Wilson,

44:01

so going on a hundred years. But

44:03

the media, you know, they loved Obama. He could do

44:05

no wrong. So they weren't particularly

44:08

they were they were strongly worded letter

44:10

that's not very nice Obama, but they didn't do anything

44:12

serious. They were they certainly weren't opposing the administration

44:15

based on that. But this

44:17

guy who is

44:19

now charged with leaking the

44:22

tax tax information

44:25

about about Michael Cohen, You're

44:27

you're going to see more of this. You We should

44:29

all expect, I fully

44:31

expect that someone is going to leak Trump's

44:34

tax returns at some point. It's just that they're

44:36

waiting to see if the process, if now

44:38

the Democrat Congress can get it. But if if

44:40

they are stymied in this. If

44:42

they're not able to leak Trump's tax returns,

44:45

two things will happen. I think

44:47

I'm making a prediction. I don't know. Somebody

44:50

will just decide from within the IRS, from

44:52

within the government, to violate

44:55

their ethical and legal obligation

44:59

to get Trump's tax returns

45:01

out there. And what

45:03

we will see is a total nothing burger.

45:06

It's gonna make the Mulla

45:08

Report when it comes out look like

45:11

you know, the Godfather series. I mean,

45:13

it's just gonna be so boring.

45:16

There's nothing in Trump's taxes that is

45:18

worth anyone's time. I assure

45:20

you. I

45:22

think he doesn't want to give it out to the public right now,

45:24

just because he doesn't want to, because they keep telling

45:26

him he has to, and that's his Trump's way. But

45:28

you're I think somebody is gonna leak

45:31

from within the IRS. Someone's gonna leak Trump's tax returns,

45:33

that's my and the press is gonna

45:35

say, oh, look at this, we just happen to have the tax

45:37

returns. People are willing to risk

45:40

prison to embarrass this president, and think about that, not

45:42

to expose wrongdoing, to

45:44

embarrass this president or anyone around him.

45:46

That's how Trump's derangement

45:49

syndrome has infected the federal

45:51

bureaucracy. We'll be right back. You

46:08

might be wondering who is getting

46:12

yelled at in this way and where are they're getting yelled at in

46:14

that way? You know what neo

46:18

Nazi was marching through a public square

46:20

somewhere and people started understanding, Oh, it

46:22

wasn't a neo Nazi. It

46:25

was a conservative intellectual of Indian

46:28

parentage and an immigrant to this country

46:31

and a Dartmouth alum who was at Dartmouth

46:33

College. Oh,

46:36

Dartmouth students, it should be

46:38

a shamby of yourself. I mean, these college kids

46:40

are there's such idiots. You know, the conservatives

46:42

don't do the idiotic stuff. They just don't.

46:45

And the numbers don't support this idea that everybody's

46:48

liberal when they're like twenty every No, it's

46:50

not true. It's just that

46:52

there is a greater cultural

46:55

acceptance among leftists

46:58

to act like maniacs because they

47:01

view the other side as immoral. They emotionalize

47:03

all of these topics. They don't think that

47:06

there is a good faith argument to

47:08

be had with the other side. You know that

47:10

that's what's going on here. That's

47:13

what's really happening. They just refuse

47:16

to engage with the other side's ideas,

47:19

and that denish Jasuza is getting heckled

47:21

at his own school. I mean, you know,

47:24

I can't. I can't get into this

47:26

too much detail. But my own college used to

47:28

like to invite me to speak Amherst haven't

47:31

since I've become a conservative in the public eye.

47:34

Nothing crickets, no interest

47:36

in having me come to speak. I was invited at

47:39

least three times, maybe four

47:41

times when I was in the CIA, come

47:43

tell us about foreign policy book, and I did.

47:45

I was happy too, at least once or twice. Now

47:48

though my own school, my own alma

47:51

mater, ashamed of my conservatism,

47:53

no doubt, which is amazing because

47:56

you think about the campus and there must

47:58

be a

48:01

healthy percentage of students who, even if they won't

48:03

tell anybody, are conservative. But they don't get

48:05

to hear their views reflected

48:07

back to them, or they don't even and for the liberal

48:10

students, there's always a part of that feels kind of bad.

48:12

I'm so much better at making liberal arguments

48:14

than liberals are making conservative arguments. They

48:17

don't even know, they're not even exposed to it.

48:20

The one good thing that our team has going for

48:22

us, which is nice, is

48:25

that we have to be able and

48:27

to be a conservative on a campus these days, or

48:29

to be a conservative in media,

48:31

in academia, in law,

48:34

in entertainment. You go down

48:36

the line. If you're going to be conservative

48:38

in any of those areas, you better be

48:41

able to handle yourself and know the issues

48:43

and be able to make the argument, because

48:45

otherwise they're going to chew you up and spit you

48:47

out. Whereas liberals look at AOC,

48:50

look at Okazy Cortez get you get to go

48:52

through life and ignoramus

48:55

with everyone patting you on the head telling you how smart

48:57

you are when you're an idiot. Well, you don't know

48:59

anything, but everybody around you likes

49:01

the things that you say that you've learned to say, that

49:03

you parrot from hearing other people say,

49:06

most of whom, also, by the way, don't know anything.

49:09

And it just becomes this big echo chamber of Oh,

49:11

that's great. Whose streets are streets?

49:13

Let's fix climate change? Social

49:16

justice now, yeah, all that stuff.

49:19

You don't have to even know anything. Oh,

49:22

it's just these things that people say, Oh, you know,

49:24

the dark money in our politics, and

49:26

what are we gonna do about Citizens United. I'm

49:29

always amazed at how people in

49:32

the media, never mind college kids, they'll

49:35

bring up Citizens United and they

49:37

don't know anything about it. I'll say to

49:39

them, So you agree with Citizens United,

49:41

You agree with the idea that a book

49:44

because this is what the government's position. This

49:47

is what the government's position, the Obama administration's

49:49

position was at the time. A book

49:52

should be able to

49:54

be banned, A book

49:57

should be able to be banned in a sixty

49:59

or nine any day window or whatever it was of an election,

50:02

that that doesn't infringe on the First Amendment.

50:04

You think that that's because that was the that was the

50:06

government's position on that. No,

50:09

that's not a good idea. Buck, oh okay, but a

50:11

movie should be able to be banned. But buck

50:13

corporate money from overseas, that's all. They

50:16

don't know what they're talking

50:18

about. They say things about

50:20

big money in politics and say, okay, so yeah,

50:23

you know, the libertarian Koch Brothers give

50:25

money to conservative causes, and there's

50:27

a few others out there that are

50:29

very wealthy who support conservatism. Why

50:32

is that so strange? You know, there's sorrows,

50:34

there's Tom Steyer. There's you know, all

50:36

kinds of billionaires who

50:39

come out and and support

50:41

left wing causes. So what

50:44

is this idea? The left will say things

50:46

like we need to take money out of politics, and

50:49

then you'll say, well, what about all the money you get from X,

50:51

Y and Z sources? What about the money you get from unions?

50:54

From the union, Uh,

50:57

that that doesn't count. That's not bad money, that's good

51:00

money. Oh okay, I'm glad we've established

51:02

that. So a really interesting chart. It's

51:04

actually what got me thinking about all this. And

51:07

it's from some

51:10

kind of a study group I don't know. Unfortunately

51:13

it's cut off here. We've got shared with me today

51:16

though, and it's that forty three

51:18

percent. Sorry, Voters Study Group twenty

51:20

eighteen. I obviously have to give you the source otherwise I'm

51:22

just making up numbers. Voter

51:25

Study Group twenty eighteen. And

51:28

it said that it did a did a big

51:30

poll and says that forty three

51:32

percent of Democrats versus

51:36

seventy percent of Republicans think

51:38

that people should be allowed to express

51:40

unpopular opinions in public, you know, like

51:43

Dnish Dasus at a college campus, even

51:45

those that are deeply offensive. A

51:49

similar proportion of Democrats, by the way,

51:52

openly support speech restrictions,

51:55

so getting close to half

51:57

of Democrats or

52:01

sorry, forty percent of Democrats think

52:04

that there should be speech restrictions,

52:07

and only forty three percent of

52:09

Democrats think that you

52:12

should be able to express unpopular opinions

52:14

in public. These people are authoritarians.

52:17

They because they haven't been exposed

52:19

to those who disagree with them, because

52:22

they just they slam on Fox

52:24

News, they say, the Wall Street journalists, you

52:26

know, garbage, and it's all but the rich plutocrats,

52:29

and you know, every conservative website

52:31

is just conspiracy theories. Because they create

52:33

this false narrative for themselves. They

52:36

never have to challenge any of their assumptions. They

52:38

never have to really know anything,

52:42

which I would think would

52:44

eventually start

52:47

to feel kind of hollow, right, I mean, to just

52:49

surround yourself with people who always agree with

52:51

you. I mean, I work with Libs

52:53

at the Hill, liberals because they're my colleagues.

52:55

I work with liberals at the Hill. I

52:59

have my whole life lived in the bluest

53:01

of blue parts of the country Massachusetts,

53:04

New York, Washington, d C. So

53:08

I've had to deal with liberals all along. I know many of you

53:10

have had the same situation. Even if you

53:12

haven't, you had to deal with it through

53:14

the culture. You've had your assumptions challenge,

53:17

You've seen Christianity being dumped

53:19

on. You've seen Republicans and Trump

53:21

and being treated terribly

53:23

people that are pro life. The

53:26

media thinks you're some kind of troglodyte.

53:28

If your pro life, you know you've dealt

53:30

with all of this. Liberals

53:32

don't have the intellectual resilience

53:35

and honestly, the intellectual dexterity

53:37

and fortitude to handle

53:39

the ideas of the other side, not the same numbers

53:42

that Republicans do. So

53:45

we can take some comfort in that. I guess

53:47

that's a good thing, and I

53:51

do kind of wish in a sense that it would change. I wish

53:53

Democrats would just get with the program a little

53:55

bit here, but I Am not going to hold my breath

53:57

on that one.

54:01

So this video goes viral, the

54:04

mob attacks,

54:07

and you would expect that the mainstream

54:09

media would be responsible

54:11

enough to pause, recognize

54:15

their dealing with a student, investigate

54:19

and make sure that they have the facts

54:22

accurate, that the story

54:24

that they tell is accurate. But

54:27

they didn't pause when it came to Nicholas

54:30

because they wanted to rush out, and they wanted

54:32

to jump into the mob. Give

54:34

the mob a megaphone so

54:36

that they could attack this boy because

54:40

he was white, was Catholic,

54:43

and he was wearing to make America great again.

54:45

Cap think about what this young boy is

54:47

having to deal with at age sixteen, when the

54:49

entire world saw

54:51

him the way the media portrayed him

54:54

as literally the face of evil. It is

54:56

inexcusable, reprehensible conduct

54:58

by the media, and Washington Post

55:00

led the way. Amen.

55:04

Great stuff from the attorney

55:07

for Nicholas Salman, who is going after

55:09

the Washington Post, and I hope he gets a big

55:11

judgment against them. Few reasons why.

55:14

First of all, Washington Post

55:17

is a dumpster fire of liberalism.

55:19

But start we can put

55:21

that aside for the moment. How

55:24

will this ever change unless

55:26

there's accountability. You know, you'll notice

55:28

this is kind of a recurring theme right now. There

55:30

must be accountability for libs, for

55:33

social justice warriors, for

55:36

oh I want to be a victim people, and

55:39

for super aggressive left

55:41

wing maniacs. There must be consequences

55:44

when they break the law, when

55:46

they slander people, when they destroy

55:48

people, when they create a social

55:50

media or real life in person mob

55:53

to go after people. We

55:55

can't let this stuff go. There

55:58

is a an obleegation on

56:01

us to enforce some

56:03

norms of decency,

56:06

some norms of honor

56:09

and integrity in our society. And I'm

56:11

sorry that libs just throw all that stuff

56:13

away and don't really care about it. You know, it's

56:15

whatever gives them the advantage in the

56:17

moment, whatever the political advantage is. But

56:20

we are not going to just sit idly by

56:22

and allow this stuff to happen. All

56:25

right, We're not going to hand our country

56:27

over to a bunch of left wing activists

56:29

who think that they can destroy high

56:32

school kids to make some kind

56:34

of political statement. It

56:37

was disgusting, it was disgraceful,

56:40

and just like what we saw with the Kavanaugh

56:43

hearing, a lot of people who

56:45

were paying attention to what happened with Covington

56:48

Catholic, a lot of them recognized

56:51

that the left wing mob is

56:53

not just something that comes after people like

56:56

me or you know, the people

56:59

at the time of the conservative media

57:02

ecosystem at Fox or you

57:04

know, It's not just people

57:07

like us. It's

57:09

anybody. If you find yourself

57:12

in a circumstance where the left can capitalize

57:15

off the destruction, the

57:17

utter destruction of your reputation,

57:21

your career, your livelihood. They'll

57:24

go for it. Then the social

57:26

media mob, let's it rip. And a lot

57:28

of these journalists, what you see is

57:31

that they think that they can just sort

57:33

of do journalists had on, journalists

57:36

had off. Oh I'm publishing in the Washington

57:38

Post. Oh, I'm just tweeting stuff out on Twitter.

57:40

Sorry, doesn't work that way. Anything

57:43

that you publish under your own

57:45

name, anything you're right under your own name. When you're

57:47

a public person, a journalist, somebody

57:49

who is in the public eye, you must

57:51

be held responsible for. And

57:54

the Washington Post was responsible

57:56

for a smear campaign a bunch of against

57:59

a bunch of high school kids. You

58:01

know, the same media,

58:03

and you know this is just it

58:07

enrages me. The same media that complains about

58:09

how, oh it's Trump has said,

58:11

we're fake news and Trump is so mean to

58:13

us, and why is Trump lay He's what he's

58:15

doing is so dangerous. That

58:17

same media apparatus doesn't

58:20

expect that, or rather isn't willing to

58:23

afford a bunch of high school kids

58:25

not just a benefit of the doubt, but basic journalistic

58:28

standards indecencies. So I hope

58:30

that Sandman and his attorney, his

58:32

attorneys are able to just flip the Washington

58:34

Post upside down and just empty

58:37

out their pockets. I really do.

58:40

I really do. Um there's

58:44

there's more, by the way, because I think there's there's

58:46

more lawsuits according to the Lord, that are going to be filed.

58:50

I even know some of the people that are going to get

58:52

sued, And I understand,

58:55

you know, there there has to be consequences

58:58

to this stuff. You can't just

59:00

go out there. You know, why didn't I jump

59:02

on that? I saw this story, I didn't jump

59:04

on this bandwagon. Didn't seem right to me.

59:07

Something was up, not all the facts,

59:09

too obvious

59:12

that the media had constructed

59:14

this narrative for their own purposes. I

59:16

didn't fall Isn't it interesting? You know, you

59:19

listen to conservative media. If you're listening to this show,

59:21

you listen to a conservative who's got a syndicated

59:23

radio show obviously across the country. But did

59:26

I get Covington Catholic wrong? No?

59:30

I did not. Did I get

59:32

Jesse Smollett wrong? No?

59:35

I did not. Did I get the

59:37

BuzzFeed debacle right before

59:40

Covington Catholic wrong. Mmm, didn't

59:43

buy that one either. Did I get Kavinall

59:45

wrong? No? And I'm not pretending like I'm the only

59:47

one. A lot of my fellow

59:49

conservatives in the media

59:52

saw these things for what they were as well. Not all of

59:54

them were as vocal as I was. But why

59:56

do I keep being right? And the Washington Post

59:58

with its you know, hundreds of millions of

1:00:00

dollars of assets, and the New York Times was

1:00:03

it with its thousand plus

1:00:05

writers and editors and everything else, and C and

1:00:08

N with its you know, it's gold plated

1:00:10

toilet seats. I mean, you know, why

1:00:13

can I figure this stuff out? But they can't?

1:00:16

Does that ever? And when I say I, why

1:00:18

is it that you can figure this stuff out? Too? And

1:00:21

they can't? You knew?

1:00:24

If you didn't know, you wouldn't be listening to the show

1:00:26

because what I said about Smaller would be so offensive,

1:00:29

right, what I was saying about Cavana will be oh,

1:00:31

you know, no, you know, And that's why you listen

1:00:33

to me. But isn't it

1:00:36

isn't it amazing that when you line

1:00:38

up these these inre and don't even

1:00:40

get me started on the Mueller probe and lack

1:00:42

of collusion. I mean, obviously a lot of

1:00:44

US conservatives know that that's total bullcrap.

1:00:48

But why is it that they're allowed to keep

1:00:50

being wrong on these issues and

1:00:52

yet their judgment, in fact, their judgment

1:00:54

is supposed to exceed mine and

1:00:57

yours. They are the smart people

1:00:59

who know all the things, with all the editors

1:01:01

and the fancy you know this, that the other thing

1:01:03

in their offices, but

1:01:06

they keep being wrong and they do

1:01:08

real damage to normal

1:01:10

people. There are hundreds

1:01:12

of lawsuits that are likely be filed Playlip five,

1:01:19

certainly hundreds. The good news

1:01:21

is is that we have two

1:01:23

and a half years to identify and file

1:01:26

lawsuits against the wrongdoers. And

1:01:28

we got a lot of work to do because

1:01:30

the social media and mainstream

1:01:32

mob of bullies was extremely

1:01:35

large in number, and they were very

1:01:37

vocal, and the mainstream media,

1:01:39

like the Washington Post gave

1:01:42

them a megaphone to

1:01:45

go out and to shout to the world

1:01:47

that this young boy had instigated

1:01:50

this event which he did not, had

1:01:53

engaged in behavior swarming around

1:01:55

mister Phillips which he did not, had

1:01:57

blocked mister phillips ability

1:02:00

to leave the scene,

1:02:02

which he did not. He was a child.

1:02:05

He was he was accosted by adults,

1:02:10

accosted by adults, adults who

1:02:13

I would note were acting horribly.

1:02:16

And if you go back and you read that media

1:02:18

coverage, there

1:02:20

was no effort to be honest about this. The

1:02:23

New York Times did a profile of the black

1:02:26

Israelites, had referred

1:02:28

to them as street preachers

1:02:30

or something. I mean, it was a puff piece

1:02:33

on a bunch of adults who

1:02:36

say the most horrific racist,

1:02:39

anti gay, you

1:02:41

know, go go down the line, anti

1:02:43

white. Just these people are.

1:02:46

They're scum. They're

1:02:48

scum people, but

1:02:51

the Times wanted to give them the benefit

1:02:53

of the doubt. I

1:02:55

wish I could just go into the newsrooms in these places

1:02:57

and sit down and be like, who wants to debate this with

1:03:00

me? Who wants to have this conversation? Oh?

1:03:02

You know, we just we just do the

1:03:04

news and in journals, and journalism

1:03:09

is rotten in this country.

1:03:13

Journalism needs to be rooted

1:03:15

out and planted

1:03:18

a new That's

1:03:21

one of the lessons of what we saw with Covington. So

1:03:23

I'm very happy to see that there's going

1:03:25

to be some legal action here. I don't

1:03:28

know if they're

1:03:30

going to be successful. I certainly hope they

1:03:32

will be successful, but

1:03:35

we can't. This is just like the

1:03:37

Jesse smaller thing. You know, we are conservatives,

1:03:40

we have lives, we are we are good,

1:03:42

decent people that try to do the ethical

1:03:44

thing, that like to show mercy and forgiveness,

1:03:47

and but we can't just get slapped in the

1:03:49

face all the time and do nothing. We

1:03:51

can't allow the system

1:03:53

such as it is, to always

1:03:56

undermine and destroy

1:03:59

people like us. I'm

1:04:01

sorry, you know, I'm not saying that

1:04:03

we have some persecution complex and

1:04:05

oh we know, woe is us whatever, But you

1:04:07

see it happening from the media perspective,

1:04:10

it's just reality. They

1:04:13

are trying to destroy their

1:04:15

political opponents however they can. They're trying

1:04:17

to sell a certain kind of narrative

1:04:20

to their largely delusional audience.

1:04:23

Whether it's on Russia collusion, or

1:04:25

Covington or Kavanaugh or you name it.

1:04:27

It's

1:04:29

wrong. And I hope

1:04:31

that there is some justice for Covington

1:04:34

and in that for all the rest of us as

1:04:36

well. A

1:04:44

bunch of let that's right,

1:04:46

just like you're damn Donald Truck. Look

1:04:49

all these dusty crackers with

1:04:52

that racist garbage. One. Look at these dirty

1:04:55

cracks. Look

1:04:58

at these dirty crackers. The

1:05:01

Black Israelites said to the Cummington

1:05:04

High School students, dirty crackers.

1:05:08

Anybody anybody find that offensive? I wanted

1:05:10

to play this before we got into the break. I just got so

1:05:12

caught up in the moment that I skipped over the clip

1:05:16

dirty crackers. They said, that's

1:05:19

remember, the Black Israelites are the

1:05:21

people along with that guy

1:05:23

um from forgetting

1:05:25

his name now, the Native American activist

1:05:28

guy. They were the

1:05:30

ones and all of you're

1:05:32

yelling his name because you remember, and I just blanked

1:05:34

on it for a second, but they were the ones that the

1:05:38

media was siding with against

1:05:40

the kids. You know that there really

1:05:42

is this this deep seated

1:05:45

disdain on the left for

1:05:48

people that fall into certain categories. If

1:05:50

you if you are a white

1:05:53

kid who goes to a Catholic

1:05:55

school, which I assume you have to pay, it's not a public

1:05:58

school. A white kid goes to a Catholic

1:06:00

school who supports Trump, they

1:06:02

think you're the enemy. And there's

1:06:04

no, Oh, we're gonna give them

1:06:06

a little bit of leeway because their kids and no, no

1:06:08

no, because they're just gonna grow up to be big maga

1:06:10

supporters later on, right, so they they

1:06:13

figure might as well take care of them right

1:06:15

now, might as well decide

1:06:18

to ruin their lives as as quickly

1:06:21

as possible. It's

1:06:23

it's a troubling circumstance, to be sure,

1:06:25

by the way. I didn't want to skip over because

1:06:29

obviously this is a major news

1:06:31

story, and in what

1:06:33

we have to find out more

1:06:36

about the facts of the case,

1:06:38

such as they are. But from what

1:06:40

we understand right now, there

1:06:42

was a plot

1:06:45

that was stopped

1:06:48

from a white nationalist who

1:06:51

was trying to just trying to kill a whole

1:06:53

bunch of people. He

1:06:55

was in the I believe in the Coast Guard. Right, Yeah,

1:06:58

here we go. I'm Drea. This is a from

1:07:00

the guy I'm dreaming of a way to kill almost every

1:07:02

last person on earth. According

1:07:05

to this Coastguard lieutenant

1:07:08

and self identified white nationalist, Christopher

1:07:11

Paul Hassan is his name, he

1:07:13

wanted focused violence to establish a white

1:07:15

homeland and said I'm dreaming of a way to kill almost

1:07:17

every last person on earth. The

1:07:20

indictment of him says the defendant intends to murder

1:07:23

innocent civilians on a scale rarely seen

1:07:25

in this country, and they're

1:07:27

holding him on Roman not letting him out, and

1:07:31

he also bought a stash of steroids and narcotics,

1:07:34

apparently to make it easier for him to sustain

1:07:37

wounds, probably bullet wounds when he went

1:07:39

on this spree. There

1:07:42

are evil people of all

1:07:44

kinds of ideologies and backgrounds,

1:07:47

that much is for sure. This is somebody

1:07:50

who, assuming the facts that

1:07:52

we have here are true and so far there's no reason

1:07:54

to believe that they're not, should spend the rest

1:07:56

of his life in prison, no

1:07:59

question. I think

1:08:01

it's it's interesting me also that you know he's somebody who

1:08:03

he stockpiled all these weapons, that went through

1:08:05

all these procedures. I'm wondering what the

1:08:09

how they got him. I didn't see that today. I'm assuming

1:08:11

they probably got an informant near him, but maybe

1:08:13

they had something else that tipped

1:08:15

them off to it. But now

1:08:17

you're going to get into this discussion. As

1:08:20

always, this is where it always goes of. See,

1:08:23

the real threat that we face

1:08:26

is from white nationalist domestic

1:08:28

terrorists, not Islamic radicals.

1:08:30

This is what they always say. And

1:08:33

to this I have to I

1:08:35

have to always take a moment, take a beat, and say, okay,

1:08:37

let's go, let's go over this again. When

1:08:40

a white nationalist decides

1:08:42

to engage in an active mass murder,

1:08:46

he, based on the

1:08:48

history of this and cases

1:08:51

in the past, overwhelmingly is

1:08:53

acting on his own is

1:08:55

acting based on a sense of perceived

1:08:58

you know, heightened grieving, and is

1:09:02

sociopathic or psychopathic. And

1:09:05

it's a terrible event. We should stop them,

1:09:08

and if we can't stop them, we should lock them up,

1:09:10

or more than lock them up as soon as we catch

1:09:13

them. Anybody who does this. But if you're

1:09:15

going to compare and this, I already saw this happening

1:09:17

today. And you know, Corey Booker recently

1:09:19

said, oh, the real threat in this country is

1:09:22

from white nationalist terrorism. The

1:09:25

moment you dig into it and you look at

1:09:27

the numbers for the last twenty years,

1:09:30

it is not even close. How

1:09:33

many more people have been killed in this country

1:09:35

by Islamic radical terrorism

1:09:38

than any other form. It

1:09:40

is not even close. How much more

1:09:42

in terms of resources and security

1:09:44

procedures. And you know we have a TSA not

1:09:47

because of white nationalists. We

1:09:49

all know this. We've

1:09:51

had to dramatically change and have

1:09:54

changed US foreign policy, spent

1:09:57

trillions of dollars overseas trying

1:09:59

to root out Islamic radicalism, and when an

1:10:01

Islamic radical acts in this country,

1:10:03

they do so with a

1:10:07

a belief that

1:10:10

is supported by tens of millions

1:10:12

of people around the world based on the numbers

1:10:14

based on the Pew polling, and is

1:10:16

often supported by entire nation states,

1:10:19

places where there are millionaires

1:10:21

and billionaires. That's right, who will

1:10:23

send money to these kinds of groups, you

1:10:26

know. So it's just in terms

1:10:28

of scale, sophistication and threat, it's not

1:10:31

even close. Was this Coastguard lieutenant

1:10:33

a serious threat, a real problem, and a

1:10:36

just terrible human

1:10:39

being? Yes, all of that is true.

1:10:42

Is a good work by the FBI to take him down,

1:10:44

Absolutely fantastic and they should

1:10:46

be praised for this. Does

1:10:49

this mean that the real threat? If you're

1:10:51

gonna ask me, as a former counter terrorism analyst,

1:10:53

somebody actually did that for a living. It's the real

1:10:55

threat now, white nationalism and not Islamic radicalism.

1:10:58

No, that is fall The numbers

1:11:00

do not support it. Nothing

1:11:03

on a strategic global level supports it.

1:11:05

So let's just understand

1:11:08

what's real here and what's not and keep

1:11:10

things in context. Every

1:11:15

business in every industry needs to

1:11:17

be sure that the people that they're

1:11:19

bringing in are the people they think they are

1:11:21

right. I mean, that's why background checks are so

1:11:24

important. It's also a liability issue. Whoever

1:11:26

you bring in there, you've got to be able to trust and know

1:11:28

that the information they provided you is

1:11:30

correct. That's why Global Verification

1:11:32

Network is the best choice for you

1:11:34

for background investigations and vetting.

1:11:37

They are a dual certified, in fact, the only

1:11:39

dual certified veteran owned and operated

1:11:41

background investigation in vetting company, and

1:11:43

they're headquartered in Chicago with risk mitigation

1:11:46

experts spread across the country. Call

1:11:49

them right now, just tell them what your

1:11:51

needs are, tell them what your business is. They will

1:11:53

tailor a plan for background checks

1:11:55

to your needs. Eight seven seven

1:12:13

Leave no stone unturned. I

1:12:18

know that the media is going to work overtime

1:12:21

to try and create this image

1:12:24

of Bernie Sanders as this cuddly guy who's

1:12:26

up in Vermont and he just wants to give everybody

1:12:28

to free stuff. And he wants to be friends with everybody.

1:12:30

And no one pays for college, no one

1:12:32

pays for healthcare, no one pays for food.

1:12:36

I understand that that's where they want

1:12:38

to take this. That's going to

1:12:40

be the overwhelming media

1:12:43

effort around this issue, around the issue

1:12:45

of Sanders candidacy. I'm

1:12:47

here to just remind everybody that this

1:12:49

is a guy who, as an adult. I'm

1:12:52

not talking about going back in time and digging

1:12:55

up old tweets or you

1:12:57

know, talking about herebook photos or any

1:13:00

anything like that. This is a guy who, as an

1:13:02

adult and

1:13:04

somebody was already in public life, decided

1:13:09

for the old tweets. I'm in for people that were teenagers

1:13:11

then, which would not Bernie

1:13:13

Sanders would not count in that. In that regard,

1:13:17

Bernie Sanders is somebody who had a very

1:13:19

clear sympathy with

1:13:22

a system that had enslaved hundreds

1:13:25

of millions of people around the world for decades,

1:13:28

and a system that had created that had

1:13:30

been propping up the Soviet Union

1:13:32

and communism a

1:13:34

true mortal threat to the United States

1:13:38

and some of the little satellites

1:13:40

of that Soviet Communist

1:13:43

menace. Bernie Sanders

1:13:45

was quite fond of them. And

1:13:48

we should, we should. You know, this is all fair

1:13:51

game, folks. He was an adult, he spent

1:13:53

time there. This is like when

1:13:56

what's his name of, Deblasio Kasa

1:13:58

Virham, Deblasio Warren

1:14:02

or sorry, Warren Wilhelm build a Blasio, same

1:14:04

guy, and when he went I

1:14:06

think too, I think it was down

1:14:08

to Nicaragua to hang out with the Sandinistas.

1:14:10

I mean, these people who do this stuff, think

1:14:12

about that. Of all the places you go in the

1:14:14

world, Bernie Sanders honeymoons in the Soviet

1:14:17

Unions. That

1:14:19

is an utterly bizarre thing to

1:14:21

do, especially at a time when you

1:14:23

remember the culture. I mean, hey, I saw

1:14:25

Rocky four right, it was very

1:14:27

clear who was on our team who

1:14:30

was on their team. You're gonna go over to Sylviet Union

1:14:32

to come back to the great great transportation

1:14:35

and breadlines are wonderful because you're in

1:14:37

the line and then when you wait for

1:14:39

six seven hours, the stale bread

1:14:41

waiting for you free. This

1:14:44

is disconcerting because

1:14:47

I do think that Bernie is going to be, at

1:14:49

least for a while, their front runner. They

1:14:51

may have to switch somebody else out for Bernie

1:14:54

as Moore comes out about him, and I

1:14:57

do think people keep saying, well, Trump is I'm sorry,

1:14:59

seventy two, who is not seventy seven?

1:15:02

You know, he's even older. He's

1:15:04

even more past

1:15:06

the red line of being able to

1:15:09

carry the presidency based on

1:15:11

energy and the decision

1:15:13

making processes that do take it

1:15:16

out on people. Play

1:15:19

clip sixteen here this is burn. I remember,

1:15:22

for some reason other being very excited when when

1:15:24

Fidel Cashtro made the revolution in Cuba, and I

1:15:26

was a kid, and I remember reading that and it was

1:15:28

just seemed right inappropriate that poor people

1:15:30

were rising up against rather ugly rich

1:15:33

people. And I remember it again very

1:15:35

distinctly, a very distinct feeling. I

1:15:37

was watching the debates, you remember the famous Nixon

1:15:39

Kennedy debates. That was the first time in the presidential

1:15:42

candidates actually debated, and I

1:15:44

was becoming increasingly entrusted in politics. Didn't

1:15:46

know much, but was interesting. I remember sitting in the student lounge

1:15:48

at our dormitory watching the debate, and

1:15:51

at that time we could talk about Cuban.

1:15:53

Now, I was very excited and press play the Cuban

1:15:55

Revolution. We should deal firmly

1:15:57

with Fidel Cashtro and Nixon was playing the role

1:15:59

of hey, you gotta be patient. You

1:16:01

know, you can't do these things. You gotta negotiate. What of

1:16:03

course, what he was upset about is that secretly

1:16:05

they were planning the Bay of Pigs invasion right then.

1:16:08

So he he was the liberal

1:16:11

and Kennedy was playing the conservative. And actually

1:16:13

you know they're When you read novels, people say there's a sick

1:16:15

feeling in yourself. Usually I'm sufficiently

1:16:18

unemotional not to be sick, but actually got off in the

1:16:20

room and almost left the public. You

1:16:23

can't criticize Cuba,

1:16:26

or Bernie might puke on your shoes.

1:16:30

That's that's a that's a conversation

1:16:32

that some of my friends who are Cuban, who

1:16:35

are true refugees by the way, from Cuba,

1:16:38

people who had to flee. I

1:16:40

know people that their families,

1:16:42

lands and property were confiscated,

1:16:47

that they were under

1:16:49

under real threat of torture and imprisonment

1:16:52

and even execution if they

1:16:55

weren't able to get

1:16:57

out of the country. And I wonder what Bernie

1:16:59

would say to those people. Well,

1:17:02

we have some sense of it. In that clip he said, rising

1:17:04

up against the ugly rich people.

1:17:08

Why is it if if we're supposed

1:17:10

to get Sweden, if the Democrats

1:17:13

today, the Occasio

1:17:15

Cortez is the Elizabeth Warrens. If

1:17:17

the left wing socialist Democrats

1:17:19

in America are promising

1:17:22

Denmark for us, why

1:17:24

do they still have a sweet spot for Cuba?

1:17:27

What is it about a country that

1:17:29

imprisons people for their politics,

1:17:32

imprisons and persecutes

1:17:35

homosexuals, has executed

1:17:38

political prisoners by the thousands, stretching

1:17:40

back into the early days of

1:17:43

Chegavara and the

1:17:45

revolution in Cuba? Right,

1:17:48

what is it about Cuba

1:17:50

that still strikes this chord

1:17:52

where there's some degree of fondness

1:17:55

in the hearts of American democratic

1:17:58

socialists. You know, why

1:18:01

is it that the only people who look at Venezuela

1:18:04

and think, WHOA, Let's not get

1:18:06

too involved there. Let's not

1:18:08

even send food to starving

1:18:10

people. I'm not talking about military force. Let's

1:18:13

not even send humanitarian

1:18:15

aid. We should because that

1:18:17

will obviously make the regime look bad. If America

1:18:20

has to feed the people, right, and that's going to help push

1:18:22

this coup along they call it. I mean, the last

1:18:24

election was a farce. Maduro

1:18:27

cheated. We're supposed to believe at

1:18:29

institutions, We're supposed to believe that

1:18:33

you can't cheat and get away with it, at

1:18:35

least in this country. But in Venezuela

1:18:37

they'll say, oh no, that's that's just how

1:18:39

they were doing things there. Maduro he

1:18:41

had to play a little dirty, but he's still the president.

1:18:44

The only people that come to Maduro's

1:18:47

aid in this country are the leftist socialists.

1:18:49

Why you know, I think it's

1:18:51

worth asking these questions. It's

1:18:54

one thing to say I love Sweden, I love

1:18:56

Denmark. I want America to be like those

1:18:59

countries. Right If Bernie wants to be the mayor

1:19:01

of Stockholm and sit

1:19:03

in the White House when he does it, that's that's

1:19:05

one thing. But you'll notice

1:19:08

that when it comes to Nicaragua, when

1:19:10

it comes to what's

1:19:12

happened in Venezuela

1:19:14

and now for decades with

1:19:16

Cuba, the left

1:19:19

in this country has a fondness

1:19:21

for those for those nations. And I

1:19:23

don't mean for the people, I mean for the regimes,

1:19:26

for the governing systems. I'm

1:19:30

sorry, but to be able to go back

1:19:32

and to hear somebody like Bernie Sanders

1:19:35

praising the Soviet Union, openly

1:19:39

longing for the days of Cuba's

1:19:41

revolution against the quote ugly rich

1:19:43

people. Why

1:19:46

why should we think that his mentality has really

1:19:48

changed that much. Because he's old now and a little cookier.

1:19:51

It seems a little a little more like the like

1:19:54

the crazy grandpa that you gotta make

1:19:56

sure it doesn't wander out into the snow in his underwear.

1:19:58

I mean, what is it about

1:20:00

Bernie Sanders? Now, that's

1:20:02

so he's talking about free healthcare, he's talking

1:20:04

about soaking the rich with taxes. What

1:20:07

qualifies as rich? By the way, that's always

1:20:09

a This is like when people say, do

1:20:11

you believe in climate change? And this is a nonsense

1:20:14

question because even if I do, what do we

1:20:16

do about it? And how much climate change?

1:20:19

How much climate change am I supposed to be worried about?

1:20:21

Here? To what degree? When

1:20:23

you say that you're only going to tax the rich, which Occasio

1:20:26

Cortez and Warren and

1:20:29

name a Democrat who's not an establishment

1:20:32

kind of Wall Street Hollywood friendly.

1:20:34

Although Hollywood is actually very behind Bernie

1:20:36

Sanders. There's a lot of big money in Hollywood

1:20:39

that likes Bernie Sanders, but they

1:20:41

all want to tax the rich more

1:20:43

in order to fund these enormously expensive

1:20:46

social programs. And so I do think we should

1:20:48

ask the question. Okay, so given

1:20:51

that reality what

1:20:54

makes somebody rich? Are

1:20:56

we really going to walk around and pretend that somebody who makes twenty

1:20:58

million dollars is the same financial

1:21:01

footage as somebody who makes two hundred thousand dollars.

1:21:05

And how do we pay for all these programs

1:21:07

that they talk about? When if you took

1:21:09

every dollar that is made by

1:21:11

people over ten million

1:21:13

a year in this country, you just seized all of

1:21:15

it, you wouldn't be able to fund the

1:21:18

stuff that these democrats are talking about because

1:21:20

there aren't that many people who make that much money. The

1:21:24

money is in the middle class.

1:21:26

The money is in folks

1:21:29

who are just showing up, doing jobs, paying

1:21:32

their bills, and doing things the right way.

1:21:35

And when I mean the money from a from

1:21:37

a taxation perspective, that's where it

1:21:39

really really moves the needle.

1:21:42

So what they'll try to do, what Sanders is going to

1:21:44

do is one tell us that it's

1:21:46

not fair to point to Venezuela. It's not fair

1:21:48

to point to Cuba and say that's

1:21:51

socialism for you. This is where socialism leads

1:21:53

because look at these European countries. And

1:21:56

he's going to hope that people don't pay attention to

1:21:59

one the the bureaucracy

1:22:01

in those European countries. That would be like trying

1:22:03

to make socialism work in you

1:22:05

know, Rhode Island or Maine. All

1:22:08

right, it's not making it work in a country

1:22:10

of three hundred and twenty million people start

1:22:12

start with that, and

1:22:15

we're talking about countries like Denmark and Sweden.

1:22:17

These are these are the size of a

1:22:20

US state, one

1:22:22

US state, and not even the biggest ones. So

1:22:26

he's hoping that people don't pay attention to

1:22:28

the scope and scale of the projects

1:22:30

that he's really talking about. And

1:22:32

he doesn't want to dig into the fondness

1:22:35

that the left has for all of these socialist

1:22:37

regimes, which just keeps coming up. Right, they

1:22:39

there were New York Times articles praising Venezuela

1:22:41

in twenty twelve. Maybe they're gonna make this whole thing

1:22:44

work. And I

1:22:46

think that in an era when we're told that there's

1:22:48

somebody who might be doing

1:22:50

Russia's interest, right, Trump is he's Putin's

1:22:53

puppet, and all this stuff is Sanders

1:22:55

a communist puppet because

1:22:58

he used to like communism a lot. Now he says

1:23:00

socialism. But if you were

1:23:02

going to get a communist to be the president the United states.

1:23:04

Wouldn't he have to say that he was a democratic socialist

1:23:07

first? I think it's fair

1:23:09

to ask the question. AARP

1:23:13

is a very well known organization

1:23:16

for seniors, but if you dig a little

1:23:18

deeper, you find out that

1:23:21

aarps pretty left wing. They support

1:23:23

things like government run healthcare,

1:23:26

They are not strong on our southern

1:23:28

border. They want higher taxes for the middle

1:23:30

class. You don't want any of that stuff, So how about

1:23:32

you join an organization for seniors that represents

1:23:35

your conservative values and gets

1:23:37

you a lot of great benefits AMAC.

1:23:40

Why do I recommend AMAC? Will? AMAC

1:23:42

will get you the discounts on car insurance,

1:23:44

hotels, roadside assistants, dental plans,

1:23:47

even sell service options, lots

1:23:49

of things to make your life easier and save you money. But

1:23:52

also AMAC supports

1:23:55

conservative policy, fixing

1:23:57

social security, protecting our southern

1:23:59

border, strong military. You need

1:24:01

to check out AMAC. Join right now

1:24:03

at AMAC dot us slash buck.

1:24:06

That's AMAC dot

1:24:08

us slash buck. I

1:24:14

know that everyone's focused on a hoax hate

1:24:16

crime today, but turns out there are in

1:24:18

fact real hate crimes

1:24:20

out there, as you no doubt already no,

1:24:23

but they're not always against individuals

1:24:26

who are in a protected group.

1:24:28

It's not always the intersectional

1:24:30

left that is somehow being attacked.

1:24:33

Sometimes just being a conservative

1:24:35

can get you punched in the face.

1:24:38

We have Benny Johnson with us now. Benny

1:24:40

is the creative director at Turning Point

1:24:43

USA, formerly of The Daily Caller, also

1:24:45

a colleague of mine from the Blaze days. Mister

1:24:48

Johnson, great to have you on. Hey,

1:24:50

thanks, Buck, appreciate it. So you

1:24:53

have this video you've been sharing of, Well,

1:24:55

tell us what happened first, then we'll actually play

1:24:57

the audio. I wish people could see it because it's vicious,

1:24:59

But tell us what happened. Sure.

1:25:02

So Turning Point is a

1:25:05

young conservative engagement

1:25:08

organization, nonprofit.

1:25:10

We make sure that conservatives across

1:25:12

the country and on campuses all over the country

1:25:15

all have opportunity and access to free

1:25:17

market ideas and free market

1:25:20

content. And so one of our one

1:25:22

of our students, member of our organization,

1:25:25

was on the campus of UC Berkeley in

1:25:27

California, a

1:25:29

particularly liberal campus, and

1:25:32

was merely tabling. It's something that

1:25:34

happens normally on a college campus. You share

1:25:37

material and ideas. This is just a

1:25:39

free speech ideas and zone

1:25:42

and a angry leftist of

1:25:44

whom we do not know the identity of just yet and

1:25:46

cannot confirm if they were an

1:25:48

actual student at Berkeley. But an angry leftist

1:25:51

came up and assaulted, committed

1:25:54

a violent act against one of our

1:25:56

students, punched him in the face,

1:26:00

cause quite a bit of damage. Um,

1:26:03

and it's a horrific, horrific

1:26:05

violent act. Now,

1:26:08

Benny, we're gonna play the audio from this play

1:26:10

at John Jesus

1:26:14

Clay what

1:26:30

oh

1:26:33

so a lot of profanity here, because what's happening

1:26:35

is you got the Turning Point USA kid, and you go to

1:26:37

Benny Johnson's Twitter account and you can

1:26:39

see it. He's he's been sharing it. You

1:26:41

got a guy from Turning Point. He's just trying to

1:26:43

get get young conservatives to sign

1:26:46

up, and some considerably larger

1:26:48

dude comes along, clearly and deranged

1:26:51

leftist assaults him and then land's

1:26:53

a really nasty punch right right in the kid's

1:26:55

face. Benny, how's he doing, by the way,

1:26:57

and how's he how's the young man who was attacked reacting

1:27:00

into this? Yeah, it's

1:27:02

it's bad. We're keeping his identity,

1:27:06

is making sure that he is safe right

1:27:08

now. But I've seen photos

1:27:11

of the injury. It's a very very

1:27:13

bad injury. It was a very very bad punch. And

1:27:15

this is again on a college campus. And

1:27:18

the victim here, who's a victim

1:27:20

of a politically inspired hate crime. You have

1:27:22

to call it that. That is exactly what this is. He's

1:27:24

being targeted for his personal beliefs. This

1:27:27

is a hate crime. This victim

1:27:29

was merely saying that he is a conservative

1:27:32

and being a mouthpiece

1:27:35

for some conservative ideas on the campus

1:27:37

of Berkeley. That is all of

1:27:39

the information we know right now. This is not a fight,

1:27:41

This was on instigation. This was not a violent

1:27:44

riot. This was just a young conservative

1:27:47

saying something conservative on a college

1:27:49

campus. And what does he get for it? Pulled

1:27:51

off and punched in the face to

1:27:53

the point of a horrific personal

1:27:56

injury. It's

1:27:58

really bad by Berkeley right

1:28:00

now. Buck is actually asking

1:28:03

for any information to identify

1:28:06

who committed the violent act, they said in

1:28:08

a statement just released now, but they

1:28:10

strongly condemned this. And then

1:28:12

Berkeley is a campus that believes

1:28:15

in commitment in freedom of expression, So

1:28:17

we afford to working with the authorities and

1:28:19

bringing justice to this

1:28:22

hate crime. For this hate

1:28:24

crime against political opinion.

1:28:28

I remember when the coxin on my crew

1:28:30

team in college, who was a very

1:28:32

small guy. Because coxins have to be because

1:28:35

of the weight in the boat. It's important

1:28:37

you get somebody who's and oftentimes it's actually

1:28:39

have female coxin on an all male crew team. But I

1:28:41

remember he got he got debt by

1:28:43

a person he had never talked to and had

1:28:45

never met at a party on campus.

1:28:48

It's a good thing I wasn't there. He was a good friend of

1:28:50

mine and I would have had to take matters into my own hands.

1:28:53

But he got decked out, broke

1:28:55

his glasses, gave him a black guy. And

1:28:57

it's just I bring this up, Benny, because I

1:29:00

cannot. I mean, that's a personal experience. You're

1:29:02

now spreading what happened

1:29:04

here on UC Berkeley. I can't

1:29:06

think of an instance where a conservative student

1:29:09

has walked up to a crazy

1:29:11

lib on campus, which obviously there are tons

1:29:13

of them, and punched one of them in the face. I

1:29:16

can rattle off lots of instances

1:29:18

of people who were punched for being

1:29:20

conservatives. Yes, at

1:29:22

turning point, we are actually producing right

1:29:25

now a long video

1:29:27

that shows the instances of violence, just

1:29:29

the notable instances of violence over the last

1:29:31

two years from the left there

1:29:34

are major instances that made national

1:29:36

news. For instance, the young

1:29:38

Maga hat wearing kid who was just

1:29:40

a teenager at a water burger had

1:29:42

his hat taken soda thrown in his face.

1:29:45

A pro life supporter in Canada

1:29:48

had her phone kicked and herself like kicked

1:29:50

across the face by a

1:29:52

pro choice activist. And then just

1:29:55

dozens and dozens and dozens of Antifa

1:29:58

incidence of Antifa islands

1:30:00

that cause major injury,

1:30:03

major damage to businesses

1:30:06

and to the public sector. And a lot of this

1:30:08

violence is directed at police, a lot

1:30:10

of this violence is directed at at the

1:30:12

authorities. It's it

1:30:15

is absolutely impossible

1:30:17

to make the case that there is

1:30:19

that there's an equitable level of violence

1:30:22

between the right and the left. The left has

1:30:25

an enormous amount of incidence

1:30:27

of violence against innocent

1:30:30

people generally hate crimes because

1:30:32

of political opinion. Benny,

1:30:34

Where can people go to see the work you're doing a turning

1:30:37

point and also to follow up on this story. Yeah,

1:30:40

so I'm going to be I'm going to be on

1:30:42

Twitter very active about this in

1:30:44

the next twenty four hours. Is things develop, we

1:30:47

are going to be looking into pursuing

1:30:49

all actions in order to defend

1:30:53

our campus representative.

1:30:56

And as of right now, what

1:30:58

we're looking at bucks to bring

1:31:00

justice and identify who the person was that

1:31:03

committed hate crime, the committed this

1:31:05

act of hate political hate crime, and

1:31:08

so they can go to Turning Point USA on

1:31:10

social media, maybe go to Benny Johnson on

1:31:12

Twitter. All right, Benny, stay on this one

1:31:15

man, and thank you so much for calling in. Good to talk to you.

1:31:17

Thank you. Buck. Team will be right

1:31:19

back. Such

1:31:24

a bunch of snowflakes in the mainstream

1:31:27

media. I mentioned this yesterday.

1:31:29

Sarah is Gert somebody

1:31:32

whom I know, and in fact, those

1:31:34

of you who used to watch real

1:31:36

News back in the day, we'll remember Sarah

1:31:38

had shorter hair, perhaps

1:31:41

a slightly different personal

1:31:43

style, but she was a not

1:31:46

frequent but she had multiple

1:31:48

appearances on real News. On

1:31:51

the Blaze TV, which was the

1:31:53

best obviously other than Glenn Show

1:31:55

for those of you who are glennback fans, was the best show ever

1:31:58

to be in my opinion, on the

1:32:00

Blaze TV, which was Real News.

1:32:02

That panel turned out to be a young

1:32:04

conservative all star panel, just not everybody

1:32:06

knew it at the time. But we've all gone off to

1:32:08

do bigger things in the media

1:32:11

sphere anyway, Sarah

1:32:13

Sarah Izger is getting

1:32:15

all kinds of heat and hate from

1:32:19

the left because she has worked for Republicans

1:32:22

and now she's in a position

1:32:25

of being an editorial

1:32:28

editorial position in the CNN newsroom

1:32:31

going into twenty twenty, and they are freaking

1:32:34

out. In fact, the DNC bunch

1:32:37

of cry babies over there, they're freaking out.

1:32:40

Two. The Democratic National

1:32:42

Committee has sought and received assurances

1:32:44

from CNN. This is from The Daily Beast today

1:32:47

that the network's new politics editor,

1:32:49

Sarah Izger, will not be

1:32:52

involved in the debates that the channel hosts

1:32:54

and moderates for the Democratic Party. The

1:32:56

assurances were provided after the Committee express

1:32:58

reservations to CNN

1:33:00

over Iger's history in Republican

1:33:03

politics, and after officials at

1:33:05

the committee raised concerns over her

1:33:07

alleged connections to a now

1:33:09

retracted Fox News story on the

1:33:11

debunked Seth Rich conspiracy theory.

1:33:14

Guys, this is pathetic, But

1:33:16

this really shows you who the mainstream media

1:33:18

is. What a bunch of whiny,

1:33:21

delusional cry babies they are.

1:33:24

Oh, I'm sorry, Candy Crowley

1:33:26

is a nonpartisan debate moderator.

1:33:29

Remember or who did

1:33:31

call it a terrorist attack during

1:33:33

the Romney Obama debate, remember that, or

1:33:36

mister Robin who did call it a

1:33:39

terror You know? Nope, sorry,

1:33:41

Candy, he did not. Obama

1:33:43

did not call it terrorist attack. But you know, fake

1:33:46

Tapper, what about him? Guy

1:33:48

worked for a Democrat congressional

1:33:52

aspirant and even worse than my view,

1:33:54

was part of the organization that became

1:33:56

the Brady Campaign to end gun violence.

1:33:58

That's right for an anti group. Oh

1:34:00

yeah, he's so nonpartisan.

1:34:03

George Stephanopolis was a Clinton

1:34:05

White House aide and he's

1:34:08

one of the most revered anchors in mainstream

1:34:10

media. I mean, it's sold. These people

1:34:12

are full of it. That's why they have to hide

1:34:14

their little pampered anchors from

1:34:16

having to have these discussions

1:34:18

in places where they can't control how

1:34:21

much time, who's there, who's showing up

1:34:23

when they go to commercial. They'll

1:34:25

never do it. They will never do it.

1:34:28

The mainstream media knows that there their

1:34:31

days are numbered with at least

1:34:33

the the patina,

1:34:35

the veneer of journalistic

1:34:38

integrity that they've been clinging to for all these

1:34:40

decades. That they know that their their

1:34:42

time I think is coming to an end. And

1:34:46

I read this a very interesting producer

1:34:48

Mike actually flagged it from me, this interview with Barry

1:34:50

Diller. Some of you might know Barry Diller.

1:34:52

He was ahead of I

1:34:54

forget Paramount Studios, I think or one of

1:34:56

the big Hollywood studios then was He's

1:35:00

He's been head of IAC, he was on the

1:35:02

board of the Washington Post. He's a big mover and shaker

1:35:05

in the media world. Help

1:35:07

found Expedia. I think or was involved

1:35:09

early on with Expedia. Anyway, he's

1:35:12

tender. You know, hey, swipe

1:35:14

left, swipe swipe right. You can thank

1:35:16

Barry Diller. He

1:35:18

was just saying how it used to be the

1:35:20

in this interview that the Hollywood studios

1:35:23

were the biggest thing, and the

1:35:26

network television got kind of

1:35:28

bought up by the studios. But it was all part of

1:35:30

this system. Right now, the system has

1:35:32

changed. Now the big kids on the block

1:35:34

are Google, Amazon, Facebook.

1:35:37

Now Silicon Valley has

1:35:40

more control over the content

1:35:42

funnels than anything

1:35:45

than anything else in the whole game. So

1:35:47

this is all shifting. And that's why I'm

1:35:49

trying to tell you early on that the

1:35:52

Netflix is and the Amazons and

1:35:54

the you know, these entities

1:35:56

are going to give the left and even

1:35:59

greater leg up than they've

1:36:01

had in the past, unless we start

1:36:03

to hold them to account for their biases

1:36:05

and also consider, you know, alternative

1:36:08

means of well, alternative

1:36:10

platforms. Quite honestly, you know,

1:36:12

nobody wants to believe this, but you

1:36:15

know, Twitter bands conservatives. It does not

1:36:17

ban liberals unless they're making

1:36:19

death threats, and even then it rarely

1:36:21

bans them. Nobody believes

1:36:23

it, but it's true anyway

1:36:26

that the DNC is

1:36:28

so scared, like a bunch

1:36:30

of little shivering snowflakes,

1:36:32

that they can have Sarah Izger go

1:36:34

work at CNN. I mean, I like Sarah.

1:36:37

She's a nice lady. Kind of feel bad

1:36:39

that she's going to be in the lions Den over there

1:36:41

because she's gonna find out real soon not a

1:36:43

good place, not an honest organization.

1:36:46

And there's some good people there, but a

1:36:48

lot of bad people, and the bad

1:36:50

people are the ones running things. Now. The

1:36:58

show ain't over yet, folks, keeping

1:37:03

it real, It's

1:37:06

time for roll call. That's

1:37:20

one of my favorite role call indrows of all the ones

1:37:22

we do. Quick note

1:37:24

for next week. Some

1:37:27

of you are probably familiar with

1:37:30

SEPACK, the Conservative Political Action

1:37:34

Conference. It happens annually

1:37:36

in Washington, d C. Well,

1:37:40

this will be the first year that I

1:37:42

make an appearance at Sepack. I

1:37:45

will be as of now at least

1:37:47

debating the issue of Syria

1:37:50

withdrawal on the main stage at

1:37:52

Sepack eight thirty

1:37:54

am a week from

1:37:56

tomorrow. So that is, let me

1:37:58

get the calendar out here. February

1:38:03

twenty no March

1:38:06

first, March first. Forget about February March

1:38:09

first at eight thirty am at

1:38:11

Sea Pack. So if you're planning on going to Seapack,

1:38:14

if you're in the DC area, definitely look

1:38:16

look out for me on Friday. I might pop into

1:38:19

support some of my buddies who will be giving speeches

1:38:21

as well in those days, and

1:38:23

I think the debate over the Syria situation

1:38:26

will be very interesting. So

1:38:29

if you can show up for that, please do and look

1:38:31

for me at Sea Pack. I want to see some members

1:38:33

of the team, especially

1:38:36

those of you who are Team Buck Campus Squad.

1:38:38

All right now, with that little bit of necessary

1:38:41

self promotion, Joe

1:38:44

Facebook dot com slash Buck Sexton.

1:38:46

To get in on this, Joe writes, you

1:38:49

must watch Firebirds Shields

1:38:51

High from Oss. Joe,

1:38:55

Joe, I am not familiar

1:38:57

with this fire John do you know fire

1:39:00

birds. I know not.

1:39:02

I know not the Firebirds, so

1:39:04

i'd have to I don't even I know. It's a car

1:39:07

that I think used to be kind of like a badass American

1:39:09

car driving a firebird.

1:39:12

Yeah,

1:39:14

it's kind of like a is a Firebird kind

1:39:16

of like a poor man's Mustang? Or is a Mustang

1:39:19

kind of like a poor man's Firebird. I don't know. It's

1:39:21

one or the other. And some of

1:39:23

the people that actually know cars in this audience are

1:39:26

are just yelling at the at

1:39:28

the radio right now. They are.

1:39:31

They should be discussed with me that I don't know the difference.

1:39:33

It's it's a fair point, Jim

1:39:35

writes. Role call okay,

1:39:37

Jim, We'll hear. The continuing hate

1:39:39

crime conspiracy continues after

1:39:41

the indictment of Jussie. He

1:39:44

orchestrated the hoax and the regressive

1:39:46

media, the propaganda arm of the Democrat Party

1:39:49

accomplices now take offense at being

1:39:52

outrage that it affects black at

1:39:54

being caught, rather being outraged that it

1:39:56

affects blacks and gays, never

1:39:58

mentioning the hate crime of false accusations

1:40:01

against white people, Trump supporters and

1:40:04

and others. The real enemy here are the liars

1:40:06

in the media, and until we have a constitution

1:40:09

loving network, we won't make real progress. Fox

1:40:11

is not the solution with the boys running the show,

1:40:14

allowing Shep and others to remain.

1:40:19

So you're saying that what

1:40:22

does accomplice not take offense at being caught

1:40:24

being outraged? Never mentioned

1:40:26

the hate crime of false accusations against white

1:40:29

people. I mean, yeah, we've been

1:40:31

talking about the Smallet hoax here all

1:40:33

along. It really is a hate crime against Trump

1:40:35

supporters. The hoax is a

1:40:38

hate crime against Trump supporters. Brian

1:40:41

writes, don't stop your

1:40:43

astute analogies because

1:40:46

a particular dislike a particular listener

1:40:48

dislikes them. Brother, your analogies are ammo

1:40:50

for many of us to win obvious

1:40:53

discussions with our liberal friends. All

1:40:55

right, Brian, I like it. We will

1:40:57

keep some of the analogies going. I'll just try to

1:40:59

keep them at a high

1:41:03

level. So it's important

1:41:05

to keep the analogies good, and

1:41:07

that much I think we can do. Michael

1:41:10

writes, the reason we knew it was a hoax

1:41:12

from the beginning is because we know

1:41:15

how absurd it sounded, and

1:41:17

it sounds over the top absurd. However,

1:41:20

to the left who think hate crimes are on the

1:41:22

rise. It was on a par with the fantasy that

1:41:24

they think is going on in this country. Are

1:41:26

the lives actually delusional or are they

1:41:28

lying about it to gain power? Michael, very

1:41:31

important question. I would

1:41:33

note that the hate crimes are on

1:41:35

the rise is a talking

1:41:37

point that is never able to on

1:41:39

the rise and on what time frame? What

1:41:42

kind of hate crimes? What a degree of hate crime?

1:41:45

Talking about people that say something mean to

1:41:47

somebody in a protected group. Are we talking about an actual

1:41:50

crime? This is

1:41:52

a talking point kind of like walls

1:41:54

don't work that the moment you dig into it, you find

1:41:56

out that's kind of a dumb talking point, isn't

1:41:58

It doesn't really mean anything. Hate

1:42:01

crimes are on the rise in the last thirty

1:42:03

days, in the last year, sixty

1:42:05

years, ten years. I've dug into

1:42:08

hate crimes as listed

1:42:10

by the FBI, and first of all, a lot of

1:42:12

what are considered hate crimes aren't really crimes.

1:42:15

A lot of them, about twenty or thirty

1:42:17

percent, are in

1:42:19

the category of verbal harassment

1:42:22

or some form of vandalism,

1:42:25

which is a crime, but is not something

1:42:27

that usually you

1:42:29

know, it's not the property damage that people are so

1:42:31

upset about. Usually it's the message. So

1:42:34

this thing you hear from people better, well, hate

1:42:36

crimes are on the rise. They said that hate crimes

1:42:38

were on the rise during all of the

1:42:41

Obama administration, that hate crimes

1:42:43

are on the rise. After every

1:42:45

major Islamic terrorist attack in this country.

1:42:47

I keep hearing about a hate crimes are on the rise, and

1:42:50

then I look at the statistics and it

1:42:52

doesn't bear it out. Hate

1:42:54

hoaxes, I would argue,

1:42:56

are definitely on the rise. So

1:43:00

there's that, Lisa

1:43:03

buck in the vein of the transgenders

1:43:06

in sports thing. I still

1:43:08

wonder why the feminist left is forcing us

1:43:10

to choose men over women. Isn't

1:43:13

that completely counterintuitive to their ideology?

1:43:16

Their identity politics will end up destroying

1:43:18

them from the inside once they actually

1:43:20

think about what they are pushing. You

1:43:22

can't have both female empowerment and then let

1:43:24

men compete against them. Shields

1:43:27

higher, Lisa, It's true.

1:43:29

I think that the feminist movement in this country

1:43:31

has gone so far left that it is

1:43:34

willing to sell

1:43:36

out women, which is

1:43:38

an amazing state of affairs.

1:43:40

But that's what's going on here, and what does

1:43:42

it mean to be a woman if a

1:43:45

man can, purely based

1:43:47

on psychology, claim

1:43:49

to be a woman, and everyone, under

1:43:52

pain of social ostracism

1:43:55

and maybe even government sanction, everyone

1:43:57

is now supposed to say, yes, that's a woman.

1:44:00

What does that really mean? What

1:44:03

does that really tell us? The

1:44:05

feminist left has no answers to this, They

1:44:08

just simply don't Steve

1:44:11

Rights, Heybuck love the show as

1:44:13

usual. Steve, the show loves you as

1:44:15

usual. Listening to the podcast from

1:44:18

yesterday, especially on the Navratilova

1:44:21

dismissal from the LGBTQ

1:44:23

community, and just wanted to note that Martine

1:44:26

competed versus Renee Richards,

1:44:28

a transgendered male to female

1:44:30

athlete who was allowed by the New York Supreme

1:44:33

Court to compete in women's tennis played

1:44:35

from nineteen seventy seven to eighty one with

1:44:37

I believe no titles and coach

1:44:40

navratilover to two Wimberland titles after

1:44:42

eighty one. So maybe Martinez

1:44:44

speaks with some confidence on the issue, just

1:44:47

saying shields way high. Well,

1:44:49

thank you, Steve. Now, there

1:44:51

are some sports where brute strength

1:44:54

and speed and physicality are

1:44:57

going to be an enormous advantage.

1:45:00

Tennis, it's an advantage but it's not quite

1:45:02

the advantage that it would be in say, track

1:45:06

and field, boxing,

1:45:08

MMA, football. You

1:45:10

know, you go down the list, basketball

1:45:13

even you know, there's less

1:45:15

physicality in tennis, and so

1:45:18

you have to be at a certain skill level. You

1:45:20

know, you could take the

1:45:22

strongest man in the world, I

1:45:24

mean, actually the strongest man in the world, like the guy

1:45:26

who plays the mountain on Game of Thrones,

1:45:29

and put him on a tennis court and a

1:45:31

decent high school female tennis player. I'm sure

1:45:33

we'll kick his butt, right because but if you

1:45:36

put that same guy in an

1:45:38

MMA ring with any woman in the

1:45:40

world, he's going to win by

1:45:43

a lot and it would be terrible and scary and the

1:45:45

whole thing would be awful. But that's the

1:45:47

difference I think that we need to keep in mind. Not all

1:45:50

sports are the same when it comes to the

1:45:52

strength and speed advantage. Next,

1:45:55

here we have George, who writes buck

1:45:59

so glad to see your smiling, rational,

1:46:01

intelligent mug on the news panels

1:46:04

Shields High. Well, George, thank

1:46:06

you so much. Man. I'm not even sure what panel I was

1:46:08

on Reason Oh, that's right, I was on Fox on Shannon

1:46:11

Bream Show. For those of you who

1:46:13

like to know these things. Shannon Bream is one of the nicest

1:46:15

people you'll ever meet. I don't really mean that, and

1:46:18

I know that she probably is not going to hear
